Stephen Colbert could not be more excited for The Mooch to appear on "The Late Show" Monday night.
"We joke around here a lot about like exclusives ... When you know it's not really an exclusive interview, we're just doing a TV show here," he said. "I have an announcement right now of an actual exclusive interview that we're going to have Monday. Everybody wants this fella. Everybody wants him. Nobody got him, but us. On Monday, I will be right here talking to the first time since he left the White House, Anthony Scaramucci will be sitting right there."
Colbert's audience broke out in hysterics, screaming "Moooooooch" in excitement upon hearing the news.

"We'll do some front stabbing, it will be a lot of fun," he said. "Anyway, Mooch, I'll see you Monday. It will be a lot of fun."
