And here is the clip from the show that got him banned...

A guy called in the next show and complained that because of him the elephant entry was blocked from editing, so he could not share a fact he had learned with other "online elephant lovers" or something like that. Colbert told him he could share it now, and the guy said the following before he was cut off and disconnected:

"When fully erect, a male elephant's penis is...."

I giggled like a school girl.
