Elvis Costello | State of Inflation

The Late Show Pod Show with Stephen Colbert

Stephen previews an exclusive new dining experience coming to New York City, and speculates as to which powerful men are on the list of eight “John Does” who could soon be exposed for alleged crimes committed with Jeffrey Epstein. Meanwhile… Stephen reacts to news that scientists have named a newly-discovered species of frag after climate activist Greta Thunberg. Next, Stephen kicks off his three part interview with rock legend Elvis Costello with a special “thank you” for the artist whose music played a key role in a wonderful and bittersweet moment Stephen shared with his mother near the end of her life. Stick around to hear these old pals talk about music, life, The Beatles, and Costello's new album, "The Boy Named If."
