Joro spiders are actually very timid, more so than native spiders. They have been observed catching the brown marmorated stink bug, another invasive species that native spiders have not been known to eat, and it has also been hoped that they may consume mosquitoes and flies. Some hope that the impact of the species will be positive due to their harmless nature and consumption of primarily invasive or nuisance insects.

I appreciate taking the time for a _Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon_ reference

I love Meanwhile, but the special sauce for me is hearing Lewis’s reactions from the side. Just warms my heart.

Best intro to meanwhile I've seen. How you're able to say that many words without messing one up is absolutely astounding. Kudos Mr Colbert

Australia seeing the spider thing and going "Alright, mate, that is nothin but a budgie smuggler, let's go to Maccas"

So fun fact about those spiders they can paraglide on their own webs… have fun America

2:00 No Bengals in Cincinnati? Those officers are fooling nobody.

Cinci resident here. Best part of the tiger news the other day is that the Zoo was contacted and they said, "well... all of our tigers are accounted for... so... not sure what's going on." I had a few friends scouring the OTR area to find it. I was ready to hear a phone call that one of the guys had a run in with some murder mittens and was in the hospital but thankfully they also didn't find it. (On a second note there is also someone who drives around the Findlay Market in a Jeep with a HUGE REAL LIFE python snake that just hangs out around the hood and sides of the car and one time he also had a small monkey in a diaper in his passenger seat. Things are wild here.)

The Pringles people should be paying for that guy's defense. He just bought them the best advertising slogan delivery they'll ever have.

Three right-in-the-butt jokes in one segment 😂😂😂

Mr Colbert hi from iran, I am a civil engineer and after a long time I came back and studied my favorite field and I am about to get my phd in Political Science and international relations, I want to thank you because in one show you were talking about your children and talked about education and you said "it must be nice to hold a phd" and it was first thing to start it to now

[BlackHoleForge]

If the spiders are big enough to eat birds, maybe they're big enough for us to eat them.
Hold on let me call Australia and check, ...

[roseadams]

Aussie here, got to keep scaring you Americans (and the rest of the world). Husband laying mulch in the garden bed received a spider bite. Next day a fist sized red lump on his shoulder, A few hours later the top is black. Trip to emergency room, wound cleaning, antibiotics; trips to the hospital every 2 days for specialist treatment. He is now wearing a vacuum pump device on his hip with a tube to drain the site, endless dressings etc. He has a hole the size of a walnut in his shoulder and we are now two weeks in. Outlook improving but he is not so keen on any more gardening. We think it was a Wolf Spider.

The American ghosts in the remake, the UK one is the original

The "right in the butt" thing is so funny to me because there are 5 letters in "right" but there were only 4 spaces, & there are two t's in "butt", & a t was already on the board 🤣

[ArchAngel_M]

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is one of my favorite films.

[newtagwhodis]

His intorductory monologues will NEVER be matched immortalized in comedy. Genius. I love this man and all hes done for Second City to give rise to a new generation of talent. All around amazing guy. Thank you to everyone behind this show.

[Ben_D.]

They didn’t report finding any tigers because the guys that found tigers didn’t come back.

[sooskevington]

The Cincinnati tiger story reminds me of an old joke.
A chap was on a train journey and the passenger sitting opposite was throwing very small pieces of paper out of the window.
"Why are you doing that?" the chap asked.
"It keeps the elephants away." the passenger replied.
"But there are no elephants in England." the chap remarked.
"See, it works!" the passenger exclaimed.

2:40 Can't wait to see how ARD's German adaptation of "Ghosts" stacks up against the US version! Will German ghosts be funnier than their American counterparts?
