In this video, Stephen Colbert and John Oliver host a "Late Show Home Shopping: Canceled Clearance Sale" (1:39) to auction off props and memorabilia from The Late Show before they vacate the Ed Sullivan Theater (0:48-1:00). All proceeds from the auction will go to World Central Kitchen (2:15-2:29), an organization that provides meals in areas affected by war or natural disasters.
Here are the items up for auction:
- Final Colbert Report Script: Stephen Colbert's actual script from the final episode of The Colbert Report, signed by both Colbert and Randy Newman (3:15-3:30). The winning bidder will also receive the script for the final episode of The Late Show once it's written, and a poster for "The Late Show with John Oliver" (4:00-4:31).
- The Late Show Guest Chair: The chair where numerous celebrities have sat during their appearances on The Late Show (4:46-5:15). It also comes with a $100 bill signed by both Stephen Colbert and John Oliver hidden in the cushions (5:16-5:26).
- Big Furry Hat: The large, furry hat worn by Stephen Colbert during his "Big Furry Hat" segment (5:39-5:46). John Oliver jokes that he never understood the segment (6:05-6:16). A signed headshot of Stephen Colbert, deceptively signed by Paul Giamatti (6:35-6:50), is included.
- Prop Closet Raid: A unique opportunity for one viewer to raid The Late Show's prop closet for 60 seconds, grabbing as many items as they can carry (7:07-7:26). Items mentioned include a wrestling dummy resembling Mike Pence, disembodied arms, and a briefcase containing over $1 million in prop money (7:27-7:38). There's a chance the raid could be shown on The Late Show (7:43-8:00).
