Based on the popular recurring sketch, Stephen Colbert “confesses” to all the shameful things we all think or do in secret…and have no intention of stopping anytime soon. This paperback will be published in time for The Late Show's upcoming May 2026 cancellation. Forgive him, Father, for Stephen Colbert has sinned. He knew it was wrong at the time. But he went ahead and did it anyway. Now he’s begging for forgiveness. Based on his popular segment from The Late Show, Stephen Colbert and his team of writers reveal his most shameful secrets to millions (although, actually, he’d like you not to tell anyone). Now available in paperback, Midnight Confessions is an illustrated collection of Stephen Colbert at his most brilliant and irreverent.
