Former Daily Show colleague Mo Rocca sat down with Stephen ahead of Tuesday’s premiere at Donor’s Choose headquarters to discuss wide-ranging topics, from the new Late Show guest protocol, to the unfortunate tragedy that afflicted his family, to learning how to conquer feelings of embarrassment. Stephen’s ease with his friend Mo is evident, and also makes for a better interview. Check it out:

 

On the show’s site, you can see a few extra clips where Stephen discusses his lovely wife Evie, and be treated to a little singing from one of Stephen’s favorite musicals, Sunday in the Park with George. Love Stephen and Mo together! They make a great combo. I hope Mo brings his bowtie to the Late Show sometime.
