Since Stephen’s big sister Elizabeth Colbert-Busch filed her candidacy papers for South Carolina’s first congressional district primary, there has been a flurry of media buzz focused on the special election race and its ramifications on South Carolina politics. At the same time, mere days after filing papers, the Colbert-Busch campaign has been rapidly gaining momentum, setting up a campaign website, fundraising events, a campaign facebook page, twitter feed (@ColbertBuschSC), and most recently, an endorsement from a former would-be contender, longtime Democrat Bobbie Rose. Let’s delve into the intricacies of what’s ahead in this exciting race. (Photo courtesy campaign facebook page.)

Welcome to Better Know a Guest, your weekly guide to the wonderful and diverse array of personalities appearing on The Colbert Report and The Daily Show each week.
Hello, Hubsters!
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. As for me, I’m winding down here: this is my next-to-last post. And I’m thrilled that Stephen has a really wide variety of guests this week for me to cover: one activist with his own unique take on environmental destruction; one multi-billionaire who’s doing good in the world; a much-praised short story writer; and a musician and music critic who examined one of the most popular symphonies in the classical canon. It’s a pretty rich list.
I thought last week had some superb pieces, both the WORD and also Stephen’s scathing commentary on the gerrymandering by the Virginia State Legislature. It’s truly appalling that this still happens in this day and age. Also kudos to one of Larry Wilmore’s all-too-rare appearances on The Daily Show; he was stunningly brilliant and reminded me why I love his work so much. I’ve been so thrilled with both Jon and Stephen in their 2013 shows; they’re fired up and ready to go, and I feel such energy from them both. It’s wonderful, and very necessary in this world we live in.
And now…presenting this week’s guests! Read more

#2: Colbert is so well known for his political humor that his chops as a pure comedian are often overlooked. But he’s one of comedy’s quickest wits, not to mention an old fashioned physical comedian – a world-class mugger and slapstick artist, donning ridiculous outfits and wolfing down dubious foodstuffs on Colbert Report sketches. As for politics: He sets himself apart not just as a satirist, but as an activist, breaking the fourth wall with ingenious conceptual art stunts – testifying before congress about his brief tenure as a migrant worker, founding his own Super PAC to expose post-Citizens United money-swamped political campaigns, and in his most celebrated coup de theatre, spit-roasting President Bush, and the complacent press corps, in his appearance at the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2006.
