Before Stephen Colbert made his debut on “Late Night” in 2015, he stopped by Monroe, Michigan, where he interviewed Eminem on the Monroe public TV show “Only in Monroe.”

During his final show on CBS on Thursday, Colbert alluded to that when he said, “Tonight is our final broadcast from the Ed Sullivan Theater. We were lucky enough to be here for the last 11 years, all right? Can’t take this for granted, though technically our first show in July of 2015 was from a public access station in Monroe, Michigan for an audience of 12 people.”

Well, on Friday, he returned to Monroe, according to LateNighter, where he hosted “Only in Monroe” once again.

This time, he was joined by Jack White and Jeff Daniels.

  10. He is so talented and has been such a breath of fresh air in the polluted world of politics we’ve been in for such a long time. The need to laugh is so important. I’ll miss him, but hoping he takes his talent to a new venue.

  11. I’ve been a devoted Colbert fan since he first showed up on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. The movie he’s writing (with his son) is a labor of love and I’ve no doubt that when the movie is finished, he’ll be back in the public eye, better than ever.

  13. Monroe Public Access Cable Television, began as a dream, in 1990. MPACT, as it was called back then, took 2 years to put together, and in its next two years of operation, 400 citizens were trained in how to make their own television programs. It is still on the air today, using the new name of Monroe Media. How do I know this? I was the one who was hired to build and run it in 1990. I left in 1994 and am thrilled to see opportunities such as Colbert taping from its studio and the international publicity operations such as public access television (all around the United States) receive, validating their value! xx

  15. I love that he got to do this. There’s something comforting about returning to your roots. And I love the bevy of guest stars, including Eminem!, that joined him for this unexpected surprise gig!
