In the show, it was disclosed that Kimmel, John Oliver, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers will be releasing a special episode of their podcast Strike Force Five on May 13.

During the chat, Stephen mentioned their podcast show which they  started during the writers strike.

The 58-year-old opened, “Strike Force Five is and always be a group of five individuals, who went on strike along with their writers, who were paying their writers and who the really really wanted to stop paying their staff and so they did a podcast that paid a tiny little portion of that.”

“And we did 12 episodes. It was really successful. People seemed to really love it”, said Kimmel.

Stephen also showed the picture of the five doing a podcast online.

All the late night legends are making sure to be supportive of Colbert and make this time special for him.
