Im tired, so Stephen Colberts Detroit escaped goat story is all I want
Stephen Colbert presents the Late Show.

Stephen Colbert spends day after day unpacking the news, namely the daily happenings with President Donald Trump, so on Wednesday night, the Late Show host pivoted into a segment he calls a "Refreshing Change Of Subject."

The subject? The curious case of Smokey the goat and the Psychedelic Healing Shack.

"Folks, I've been doing this job for about a decade, and I've seen some crazy stuff come over the transom, but once in a while, you come across a headline that no amount of experience could possibly prepare you for, one that shakes you to your very core," said Colbert. "Well, ladies and gentlemen, today I learned: Escaped goat causes chaos in Detroit, scared man jumps on car. Yes, and to that, I say: Escaped goat causes curiosity in host. Man, sick of Trump, jumps on story."

This type of local, animal-involved news is what I personally needed this morning, with Stephen Colbert unpacking the strange elements of a goat on the run through Detroit, scaring a man onto a car.
