About this episode
President Trump keeps undermining his administration’s own talking points about the combat operations against Iran, Israel’s foreign minister threatened “elimination” to anyone selected as Iran’s next supreme leader, and the CEO of McDonald’s is making food influencer videos. “Rooster” star Steve Carell stops by to help Stephen Colbert raise some cash for World Central Kitchen by auctioning off one-of-a-kind pieces of television history ahead of the series finale of The Late Show. Learn more about what's up for grabs at colbertlateshow.com/ebay. Beloved comedian and actor Steve Carell recalls his Second City pal Chris Farley as “a force of nature” and says it was impossible to succeed as his understudy, especially in scenes like Farley’s signature character Matt Foley who lived “in a van down by the river.”
