Colbert and Garner Laugh Over Brolin's Lengthy Video Messages

In a recent interview, actors Julia Garner and Stephen Colbert discussed their mutual friend, Josh Brolin, and his habit of sending them lengthy, rambling video messages. Garner revealed that Brolin does this to her as well, with the videos often ranging from 5 to 15 minutes long and featuring Brolin talking while driving.

Colbert joked that it takes him a while to respond to Brolin's messages since he has a job, unlike Brolin who now has more free time. Garner then shared a special message Brolin had sent her to play for Colbert, in which Brolin urged Colbert to "be nice" to Garner and also asked about Colbert's boat, suggesting he'll have more time for it now that his Late Show is set to end in May 2023.

Brolin also used the message to demand that Colbert finally watch the '80s classic 'The Goonies', which marked Brolin's breakthrough role. This isn't the first time Brolin has pressed Colbert on his lack of Goonies knowledge, having previously expressed shock that Colbert had never seen the film.

Despite Colbert's promise to watch the movie and call Brolin, it seems the comedian has yet to follow through. With Colbert's Late Show coming to an end, perhaps he'll finally have the time to catch up on the '80s coming-of-age comedy that Brolin holds so dear.
