Seth Meyers initially had audio issues and when Stephen Colbert interviewed Daniel Radcliffe earlier this week, he had to call him via cell phone to hear him since he couldn't get the audio to work. Bill Maher did better than most...

I did like the 1950s laughing audience at the beginning.

Watched the whole thing. Sanders was very impressive. Biden needs a turn next week.

I'm always glad to see him because he's smart and funny like his Dad, but he really shone in this interview!

Same is true of Colbert this past week. They've put a workable format together and the interviews were entertaining and informative, especially Brooks.
