Thanks everyone.  I suspected this was a local thing.  It's extra annoying 
since the local affiliate usually has a long commercial break in the news right 
before the transition to the Late Show.

This.  CBS has a long-standing policy under which if live primetime programming 
runs long on a weeknight, Colbert and British Jimmy slip and affiliates are 
given their full 35 minute news window (and usually a little extra to round up 
to the nearest minute).  The timings they sent last night do indeed show a 
revised start time for Colbert of 11:37:00.
