Last night on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, guest Nick Kroll rolled out a new challenge for celebs: #PuberMe.

While talking about his new animated Netflix show Big Mouth, which Kroll created with his childhood friend Andrew Goldberg, he offered the world a pre-pubescent photo of him and Goldberg. Staying on theme, Kroll cited the “catharsis” that comes with showing photos of your awkward younger self, and urged others to come forward for the #PuberMe challenge.

Colbert made the deal sweeter by saying that for every celeb who tweeted a photo, he’d donate money to help the people of Puerto Rico. Kroll said he would match each donation.

And they’re off:
