It has to do with his iconic Comedy Central character. See more in WSJ. Magazine’s cover video interview with ‘Late Show’ host Stephen Colbert . Directed by Barbara Anastacio.

In “The One,” WSJ. Magazine talks to tastemakers and creators about “the one” secret to their success—the one mentor they lean on in a crisis, the one habit they wish they could break, the one call that changed their lives forever. From actor Nicole Kidman to “The Daily Show” host Trevor Noah to Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, iconic cultural figures open up to WSJ.

    I would love to see the unedited version of this video; it's clear he was saying much more than what was shown.
  • @belle132
    That story with his friend Chip made me cry. What a beautiful moment ❤️

    This man is a hero to me not just a comedian. Him and his wife, what a fabulous couple got me through really tough times during Covid, he deserves a medal for keeping public moral up during such dark times, and his coverage of 1-6 has been brilliant. The man is a national treasure!
  • @Magnum3144
    He is one of, if not my biggest hero. His morality, humanity and comedy are what this world NEEDS. I hope he continues his greatness!

    I’m bummed out when Stephen is on vacation or weekends when I don’t get my daily monologue from him! A true national treasure that has a heart and is not afraid to speak / show it!
  • @johnwells95
    I rely on this man's humor and heart daily over the course of these past several years. Courage and humility define him and well, that story with Chip…that's probably why we have Stephen guiding us today.
  • I know for a fact that this man saved my sanity after 45 was elected. I was using prescription drugs to get through it. I was drinking not a great deal but even two drinks is a lot for me. But his laughter and his humor gave me something to at least allow me to take a breath. Thank you Stephen💙💙💙💙💙
  • I love this man. Is it really possible to love someone you’ve never met? You just feel like home Stephen. Thank you for being you.
  • Stephen Colbert is not only entertaining , he's a good to the bones person. ❤

    I am a huge fan of Stephen Colbert. He seems like a good human being. He gives credit to all the individuals who helped him in life.

    I truly love this man. He's a good human and a good man.
  • Found his show during beginning of pandemic. His shows during quarantine grabbed me. So did Evie giggling in the background. They have my vote...
  • @Aace00
    The thing I love about Colbert is that by all accounts, be it people who met him or who worked for him, he's a genuinely kind person.
  • @davebartosh5
    Stephen is a golden guy with a HUGE heart. So talented, too. Not many people know just how much trajedy he's gone through.
  • @tareksadek9544
    I'm. a huge fan! Not only because of his sense of humor but also because of the profound humanity behind it.
  • His monologue on Monday night was a masterpiece - I came home with a head full of worries and it restored my faith in humanity (well, almost).
