What a wonderful spell caster you are.. Life would have been useless without you. I hear so much about you on the Internet,Radio and TV stations. My wife left me since 4 months ago after a little misunderstanding.

He pronounces it as "Repore" because you don't pronounce the "t" in his last name but people always get it wrong. So, as a way to stress that you don't pronounce the "t," his show is pronounced as "The Colber Repore," even if it's not how it's spelt.
