The Secret Life Of Phil Robertson

Finally I'm done wrapping gifts and then opening all of them I wrapped for myself.

On Stephen's last show of the year, we got to see how the really rich send out Christmas cards. We learned from Fox News all the nasty Christmas scams to avoid. But probably the biggest gift of the season is the hoopla caused by Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty. And not because of all the hoopla, but because we got to see what Stephen would look like if he was a Duck Dynastian with a beard. (Part of me wonders if Stephen will use the two weeks off to grow a real beard. That would be wonderful.) Phil Robertson had his hand slapped, but he's back again and everyone's happy.

Ben Stiller was on to talk about his latest movie, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. And the Blind Boys of Alabama were on to sing "Go Tell It On The Mountain" with Stephen.

I'll Find a Way

Phil Steel is excited. He wants to shoot down drones. The town of Deer Trail, Colorado is considering paying $100 bounty for U.S. Government drone debris. Well that sound interesting, but how are you going to prove what you have is actual drone debris? And how is Deer Trail going to prove what you have is not actual drone debris? Oh, and by the way, Phil Steel is selling shooting licenses so he's got himself a pretty little money maker.

Also on the show last Wednesday was Missy Cummings who had some solid reasons why drones are good. In fact, they could even fly in some needed medicine to outlying places. You know, places like Deer Trail, Colorado.

Stephen's guest was Jimmy Carter of Blind Boys of Alabama. Also on the show, was the Blind Boys of Alabama to sing a song from their new album, "I'll Find a Way." And yes you know there is a bonus song over at Colbert Nation.
