Podcast proceeds will benefit the talk show hosts' staff members who are currently out of work due
to the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike.
All five of the late-night talk shows halted production after the WGA went on strike on May 2.
The Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) also went on strike two months later. .
"Strike Force Five" is being sponsored
by Mint Mobile and Diageo. .
Each of the men will take
turns being moderators. .
Previously, all of the late-night hosts expressed support for WGA's strike. .

I think it’s a very reasonable demand that is being set up by the guild,
and I support those demands. , Seth Meyers, via statement.
I support collective bargaining.
This nation owes so much to unions, Stephen Colbert, via statement
