What is John Hodgman saying? (Daily Show)

I’ve been watching some Daily Show videos on the interweb, specifically some of John Hodgman’s appearances . In the one called “White Minority” (“When will whites become a minority in America? June 19th, 2061.”), Hodgman points out that he is a white person, but clearly conducts himself with the “irrepressable somethingorother of the pimp”. I can’t figure out what word the somethingorother is, it sounds vaguely French, something like bree-oh, but I can’t seem to google up the word or find it in a foreign phrasebook.

Brio.

I’ve loved John Hodgman’s appearances; I wish he was on more often.

Thank you! :smiley:
