You Won't Believe What They're Doing To Your Favorite Sport

A scandal is rocking the world of professional Curling, and as a purist, Stephen is concerned.

Watch The Late Show with Stephen Colbert weeknights at 11:35 PM ET/10:35 PM CT. Only on CBS.

This take down of the Curling controversy was cold. Colbert won't let anything slide by him and proponents of these new brooms are on thin ice. He rocked this segment and anyone who disagrees has to be stoned.

"Dragons Den" came to Canada as a copy of the UK version. "Shark Tank" is the American version of Canadian Dragons Den....

also fun fact: curling is probably the most heavily associated sport with drinking. from way back it has been customary for the teams to buy each other drinks after each game. and you'd play multiple games.

that "not being drunk" joke is way less of a joke than you'd think.

I'm loving the high five! Haha - they just come out of nowhere XD

[arianafiorito]

The first part where Stephen was talking about his wife was so cute! 😍

[kemchobhenchod]

I wish I had a random arm come out for a high five whenever I dropped a great zinger.

Curling's one of those sports that look really dumb, you're not into it but get dragged to a game by a friend, and next thing you know you're standing on your seat shrieking at the top of your lungs. It's also fun to play. :)

Stephen is so good at timing with his audience. He'll throw in quick little ad libs and such to keep his flow.

[keithmcintyre]

Shark Tank is a copy of Dragon's Den, which is a copy of the UK's Dragon's Den, which is a copy of Japan's Money Tigers....so it's a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy.

"Oh you can't, BECAUSE HE'S DEAD."
I think Stephen is the king of meta-comedy

[blairproctor]

There are 1.1 Million Curlers in the world, and 1 Million of them live in Canada. Our opinion in such things matters I guess. LOL

[MegaAJCProductions]

Canada may be ruining my favourite sport. But the USA is ruining my FAVOURITE way to spell words.

[TheZeroJoker]

Shark Tank is the US version of Dragon's Den.

[grahamcouture]

The curling ice is pebbled. Sweeping makes the rough pebbled ice smoother by melting it and it refreezes.

[miaschannelforcommenting]

surprised Colbert didn't mention the fact that a ton of canadian universities DO have quidditch teams which makes this story all the more ridiculous

USA sports don't get to make fun of "world tours".

[jancovanderwesthuizen]

I heared of the performance enhancing brooms before. Nimbus 2000 I believe is what they're call

[poptart]

curling is super fun! shout out from the historic ST. Paul Curling Club! (St. Paul, MN)

[theenglishman]

"Just ask Cedric Diggory. Oh wait, you can't because he's *dead*!"

Hey Stephen, there's this guy named Theodore Nott you might want to talk to. I hear he's very well-connected.

Dragons den was on for years before shark tank. In fact shark tank is created by the two stars whom were originally on dragons den for many years but are now solely on shark tank Kevin o'leary and Robert Hergavec. Without dragons den there would be no shark tank eh. Thanks Canada!
