I spent months thinking about this clip. Initially I was taken back by how great a response KR gives. Overtime I became obsessed. Why was this answer so profound to me. To the Audience. To Stephen Colbert. Why after many weeks of replaying it in my head do I still find myself re-watching. Every time finding a new sense of peace.
