Stephen Colbert Interview Video with Bob Costas at 2010 Winter Olympics

If you haven’t already watched Stephen Colbert’s interview with Bob Costas for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, it is a must see! Colbert is an incredibly talented comedian. No matter what politics you have, the guy is sure to make you laugh. You just can’t argue with funny.

In the interview, Colbert talks about his connection as the “mascot, or benefactor” for the US Speedskating team, to get them to the 2010 Winter Olympics. The Colbert Nation stepped up, and raised over $300,000 for training and other costs. Colbert says, “I did give some money… I gave $6.95, plus the deposit on a 10 ounce Coke bottle.” Simply Hilarious. He then goes on to talk about being the “Assistant Sports Psychologist for the US Speedskating Team.”
