But every single one of the late night shows all addressed climate change. I only saw Colbert, Trevor, Seth and Jimmy - but James Corden and Jimmy Fallon must have been on board, too. Jimmy Kimmel said there were 6 shows that agreed. And we know that most of these guys are friends.

Annoyed the hell out of me. Seth did a good job with Senator Sanders since he's been a frequent guest and Trevor Noah added some humor.
