Stephen Colbert is a superior father and he has the proof to back that up. "I have a mug that actually verifies that I'm the world's best dad," he told BuzzFeed. "That's a mug. That's not me talking. You can't just buy those."

The Colbert Report host took time to chat via phone while promoting his new DreamWorks animated comedy, Mr. Peabody & Sherman, in which he plays a less-than-perfect father named Paul Peterson. "It's like Midnight in Paris, but for kids," Colbert said of the film.

Outside of the realm of animation, the comedian has three children (ages 18, 15, and 12) with his wife Evelyn McGee. Below, Colbert talks about what it's like to be a famous dad — the good, the bad, and the most hilarious moments.
