17. Colbert talked about it on his Monday Feb. 16th show (last night)

Feb 17

However I believe it was actually recorded earlier ... like maybe a week or so earlier? I don't know this for sure, but Colbert had last week off, and the James Talarico interview segment was done before a live audience.

So maybe what happened is this: the live show was taped around 5 p.m. and then it was edited before CBS put on the air over a week ago. The Talarico segment was taken out and Colbert raised a stink about it with management afterwards. He was told he can't broadcast it on CBS, but he can use it on his own podcast. That's basically what he did, however he revealed all of this last night during the Late Show.

The show is taped around 5 p.m. so it didn't all happen on the SAME DAY. How could the segment have been edited, and the meeting taking place, and Colbert talking about it on the air at 11:30 last night? Not unless this is "Back to the Future" Part Z.
