Before the pandemic, someone on Rogan was talking about his experience visiting Colbert's Late Show compared to Letterman's.

The experience was completely gutted.

A weeks worth of content is cut in segments to boost productivity. All the performers and guests will assembly line perform. There's only 1 audience that will be shown for the week. Colbert rapid fire throughs the filming, with minimal time interacting with the audience.

Post Carson Late night turned into worse of a grift than before, but its just assembly line now.
