It's not Colbert. You don't roll it. It's Colbert. Did I get that right, Reese? It's Coburn, honey. But Colbert works, so it has like a little flavor. She is a serious XM host. I believe it's Serious 126, if I'm not mistaken. That's right. We know her, and I got the chance to know her because we were supporting the former vice president of the United States and her efforts to be president even before she was VP. |
