During the red carpet for the GQ Man of the Year party (note: this is not a party for the Lorde song<\/a>), How Long Gone podcast hosts Jason Stewart and Chris Black asked Colbert the questions we were dying to know the answers to, like how much money he has in his 401k after retiring (\u201cBy retiring, you mean firing\u201d) and if he was going to grow a beard like David Letterman (\u201cI am going to stop waxing from the neck down.\u201d) But the most important thing asked and wondered by stoners everywhere is what kind of joint was Colbert smoking during the cover shoot. Unfortunately, a man looking for his next job is not going to admit that he smokes weed, unless he\u2019s going to be applying at a smoke shop. \u201cYou can\u2019t prove that was a joint. Get a warrant,\u201d he interjected when asked if it was indica or sativa. \u201cI don\u2019t know the diff \u2014 I do know the difference because I took eighth-grade health class.\u201d<\/p>\n However, even if Colbert is looking for his next gig, he won\u2019t be doing a podcast anytime soon, even if the job would let him smoke weed freely. \u201cI\u2019m not going to do a podcast,\u201d he said proudly in the interview. \u201cYou cannot make me do a podcast. There\u2019s nothing in the Constitution that says when you lose your TV show, you have to get a podcast. I don\u2019t have a Substack, I don\u2019t have a podcast.\u201d Tell that to the Strike Force Five<\/a>, Colbert!<\/p>\n Related<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"He\u2019s innocent, your honor!
