Paul Simon (Extended) | It's Not The Heat, It's The Stupidity

The Late Show Pod Show with Stephen Colbert · 2025-06-20

The president tried to halt observances of the Juneteenth holiday but Americans celebrated anyway, the FDA is scrapping guidelines on daily alcohol limits, we’re in for a very hot weekend across the country, and a special nuke-proof plane was spotted landing in Washington, D.C. as Trump contemplates bombing Iran. Legendary singer and songwriter Paul Simon sits for an extended, wide-ranging interview with Stephen Colbert that touches on the meaning behind the lyrics on his latest album, ‘Seven Psalms,’ and stories from his over 50-year career in music. Head to The Late Show's YouTube channel to watch Paul's performance!
