Stephen Colbert spends day after day unpacking the news, namely the daily happenings with President Donald Trump, so on Wednesday night, the Late Show host pivoted into a segment he calls a "Refreshing Change Of Subject."
The subject? The curious case of Smokey the goat and the Psychedelic Healing Shack.
"Folks, I've been doing this job for about a decade, and I've seen some crazy stuff come over the transom, but once in a while, you come across a headline that no amount of experience could possibly prepare you for, one that shakes you to your very core," said Colbert. "Well, ladies and gentlemen, today I learned: Escaped goat causes chaos in Detroit, scared man jumps on car. Yes, and to that, I say: Escaped goat causes curiosity in host. Man, sick of Trump, jumps on story."
This type of local, animal-involved news is what I personally needed this morning, with Stephen Colbert unpacking the strange elements of a goat on the run through Detroit, scaring a man onto a car.
