Summary

Maureen unloads on pompous Stephen Colbert, his exit from CBS and how this could be the first domino to fall in the entire late night franchise. She also peels back another layer on the Coldplay couple scandal and the elitist message this affair sent to the rest of the company. Then Maureen examines the troubled beginnings of Billy Joel, as told through the new HBO documentary about his life, and how the depths of his talent have been underestimated by so many.
