**From reporter Ron Dicker:**
Jon Batiste, the former bandleader on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” said the now-canceled host will land in a gig where free speech will reign.
“What happened to my friend Stephen is a symptom of big money,” Batiste told Rolling Stone Australia in a video shared Monday.
“I think where he goes next, his voice won’t be silenced,” the Grammy- and Oscar-winning musician said. “The voice of free speech is challenge, but the soul of an individual cannot be canceled. He’s gonna find another megaphone, another outlet, I’m sure of it. I’m rooting for him.”
Batiste, who left the show in 2022, was likely taking shots at CBS and parent company Paramount for axing the show last month. It will go dark in May 2026 and will not return due to financial reasons, the network announced last month.

Hopefully he pulls in more viewers and money to avoid being cancelled again.
Two classy dudes.
I think he should do what Tucker Carlson did. Launch a presence on youtube with global reach, leverage the pull he has to get some guests to sign up and be his own boss. Either that or sign up for something through Amazon or apple that allows him to take a less rigid late evening format.
