Body Language Drama - Colbert v Conan REUPLOAD 

I would hate for this dude to analyze my conversations with my best friends.

Conan is far funnier and more talented as a host than Colbert. Conan is the last remnant of the days when late night talk shows were still funny

"By wearing glasses, Colbert is clearly trying to belittle Conan by showing off his more accurate eyesight"

Colbert can’t stand the fact that even his own audience likes Conan more.

This feels like an overanalyses to such a simple interaction.

"5 or 6 points is enough to know he's doing this intentionally" Yeah, it's called a bit.

This is so ridiculous. These guys are literal, actual real life friends who love playing things up for comedic effect. Just look at their respective ski lift stories. The truth is, they met at a ski resort and had dinner together. The stories they tell (at different times to the same podcast) are outlandish tales of ridiculousness which is an homage to the Aristocrats joke where every comedian who tells the joke tries to make it crazier than the last guy who told it.

Certain people will buy anything, so long as it's delivered in a quasi-rational, calm tone of voice, and feeds their desire to choose a side. I'm a huge Conan fan, and find Colbert's late night show woefully unfunny. I would very much like to believe that one is an asshole behind closed doors and the other isn't, but this video embodies the kind of shady evidence a bad lawyer might present to win a case they ought to lose on moral grounds.

I honestly think this is suuuuuch a huge reach. Literally seems like two guys joking around with each other. In fact, Conan has talked on his podcast about how much he likes Stephen and even hung out with him when their families bumped into each other at a ski resort. Conan seems to be acting exactly like he usually does... And so does Stephen.

This whole video misses what is happening, conan's style is usually self deprecating, so colbert keeps setting him up for jokes, which makes conan look good. Also they are literally almost laughing about the height difference thing. Have you never seen two guys joking with each other?

Colbert is like the anti-Craig Ferguson throughout this interview

Gotta admit they’re both experts at this. It’s like an invisible duel if you don’t know what to look for.

Listen to him on Conan’s podcast lmao. He talks about how much he admires Conan and how their families met up after the tonight show debacle. This is beyond stupid.

I really miss this dude's channel

This is the funniest analysis of an interview lmfao

This is genuinely cringy to watch. A simple Google search is enough to know that Colbert and Conan have been amazing friends for decades with countless interactions and bits like this, not even mentioning that Conan’s whole sense of humor is based on self-deprecation. In fact, Conan’s favorite guests and closest friends in show business are those who dare to make fun of him or ‘roast’ him, he has built a whole career around this and he loves it, that’s why he is the absolute best. No wonder BLD channel is dead.

The "analyst" is really cooking up a lot of drama here. It's called banter.

thank you so much for reuploading

Conan is one of those comedians that once they pass they’ll leave years and years of laughter

This video is like one of those TV characters who overanalyze social situations and interactions (Sherlock, etc), except pretty much all of this was wrong

Appreciate the description ! Never knew why the RU-vid decided to ghost his channel

This is really dope, man. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wow, this video is absurdly bad. Who would've known that waiting for your guest to sit down before you do isn't just a common practice to make sure your guest is comfortable, it's secretly a power play to win the honor of looking down at your guest for a half second while you sit down. And apparently Conan telling a story on a talk show isn't just him doing the thing that literally everyone does when they go onto talk shows, it's actually a secret ploy to stall for time because he couldn't possibly bear the humiliation of Colbert teasing him about some awkward photo he took as a kid. We know this because he makes a sad face at 5:44, a face which just so happens to be identical to the sad face he makes on his show when he pretends to be sad for the sake of laughs. Like yeah, there's always some subtext in an interaction, but you could use this video's style of analysis to project any narrative onto anything. Does someone offer you a drink when you're at their house? They're secretly trying to signal their power over you because they have access to drinks and you don't. Do they offer to sleep on the floor while you take the bed? That's actually a power move because from an evolutionary perspective the bed leaves you exposed in the air, vulnerable to the attacks of the predator lying in wait below you! Yes, those kinds of subtle power plays definitely exist, but you need evidence that that's what's happening, you can't just make up whatever story sounds plausible and call it a day. How is that supposed to be convincing?

This poor guy doesn't understand social interaction

This was actually great never seen a vid like this ever

Another tell that isn't covered is the fact that Conan will always "yes and", even when jokes are at his expense eg. any time Martin Short rips into him, he loves it. This was an attack and Conan holds back on the "yes and" with Colbert.

Omg THESE ARE JOKES!

I remember that in a video Conan did talk about last person to sit down as a power move between him and Colbert (now I can not find it again, maybe it was deleted). But at first, definitely Colbert was quite insecure when standing beside Conan. Not only Conan is an extremely well-loved and diverse comedian, but once Colbert used to apply to be Conan show's writer, but didn't get in (as they were talking in an interview on Conan show). And in that interview with Conan, he changed the subject and not really answer the question, it could be shown that he was feeling Conan is out of reach, so he had to buff himself up to be less insecure. But of course now Colbert has achievements of his own and can be proud of himself, and I mean, hardly anyone with a work ethics doesn't have respect for Conan - so now they are friends.

I've never found colbert funny- Conan comedic legend

That was a fantastic video, hope that the dude that made it is all good

I would love to see Colbert and Maher body language. Their interviews are so tense.

It's a good thing that Conan is a nice person and only dreamt of being a talk show host or in entertainment, else, with smarts like that... he will be doing lots of damage.

Conan has always been myfavorite late night host. He has the talent, humor and most importantly funny looking.

They've always done the double story tell on similar topics, like there's some truth there but it's muddled in each version. Like the Skii incident story. Also, early on Stephen was keeping Conan's trope of how he belittles himself on camera, but the second go around was an actual farewell as you can see that Conan's show was reaching an end of late night soon as they had major cutbacks by that point. It was almost like respect for Conan steering a sinking ship. I really hope Conan comebacks on Twitch or livestream service cause he's genuinely amazing. I like how he doesn't get to political because sometimes the world just needs to move on and laugh along together, everyone has differences no one will agree on everything but the things we can enjoy together helps break down those difference and accept each other for what we are every day versus who we are at home.

It’s all about who they respect. They try to “put in their place” those they admire so much. Great vid.

Cool stuff. Would definitely watch more of these body language analysis. Most other videos on body language are plain clueless and lack context. You're pretty cool. Sub!

It would be interesting to see how accurate this guy’s body-language-analysis truly is using science. Maybe set up a bar with hidden cameras, make predictions about hidden meanings in a conversation between two bar patrons, and then try to interview the bar patrons afterwards if they agree to him using their conversation as data. e.g. “Yeah, I’m not to lie I was trying to pull a power move on him there!”

I was trying to find this video for 6 months. Hell yeah

I was about to dislike this until I read the description. Man this was tough to watch

That ending was beautiful man

Oh my god. This guy's life must be really fucking exhausting if he thinks every interaction with anyone is a battle.

Love the ending of your video

I love Steven from Improv guy to Daily Show correspondent to Colbert Report to the Late Show, but he will never have the natural talent & charisma of Conan. He is at his best playing an exaggerated character.

Colbert's problem is that he never allows his guest to be funnier than him... especially comedians. Most hosts, including Conan, sit back and let the comedian go wild while playing the straight man. Colbert never does this and it just kills the interview for me.

A friend of mine works at a hotel as a barista and he said he got to meet Conan, apparently he's a very nice a polite guy. He made conversation with him while waiting for his coffee and all that stuff. My friend did confirm that he is indeed very tall

A very good analysis. He should make more. :)

Whereas Graham Norton sits down immediately because he doesn’t give a fuck about this stuff as he’s just a normal very funny human. Americans…who needs em.

colbert cant handle comedians. he is at his worst when he find him self in this kind of situations.

Empathy points will be a household phrase in 8 years

Wow. The second Conan is on stage the show no longer belongs to Stephen.

Colbert was still in his "Colbert Report" character

I remember this. Colbert’s attitude was surprisingly immature. Whatever doe :D

Colbert used to be so great now hes completely sold his soul...

Damn right when I was gonna come back and check his channel after a year just to find his videos/channel was deleted

there are some observations that you just notice and people don't.. for people that aren't attentive to details will just think you're reading too much into certain situations

I think i have never seen one of these videos with a happy end :)

I think Colbert as a whole is high on his own bullshit and thinks he's the new Bill Maher. The sad part is he's ruined the Letterman spot.

5:25 The smile Conan cracked as he realized he left himself open for another attack from Stephen

Idk I feel like this “science” is kinda overblown. Sometimes a smirk is just a smirk lol

people are reading too deep into this lol

At least we have the comments to explain what's really happening

This is a conversation between two comedians. Nothing more

I’ve never seen someone need to show off their ego as much as Colbert

Brilliant video

These guys are performers

they’re literally just having fun

Colbert and Conan are the nicest and decent guys, you're looking at this in a negative way. There's nothing going on here but they're just having fun.

No one's mentioned one glaring incident that may or may not have happened isn't taken into consideration @birbfm It was when Conan told him "I don't like you, go away". If he really did that, IMO, it's the classic celebrity/thirst monger deflection technique by Conan. But Colbert happened to climb the thirst ladder to the "top" and has one of the rare, but not so positive, joys of life, which is sweet revenge. Too bad he was outmatched.

Bro the level of Manipulation is crazy 😂

lmao this was such a good channel

I actually wondered where this went, I loved the videos this person made, I believe there was one about jimmy kimmel as well, shame YT nuked it

Bro makes Saul Goodman sound like an angel

GREAT VIDEO please do more who even disliked ?

People may prefer Conan over most comedians, but don’t project your own opinion onto him. He has no beef with any other talk show host and respects each one.

I was brought up that you stand when I guest enters and sit after they sit

I would be interested to know if something called "comedy" has any part in this interaction?

I wonder if the guy that made video knows that this is rehearsed.

The channel this was originally posted does not exist any longer. I really enjoyed his videos

Bribfm seems like an alien who has studied people but has never actually met one

Wait till this guy discovers that Conan’s entire brand of comedy is self-deprecating.

Yo, great read! It’s so fucking cool how you see all those details, because I saw it live ( Conan and Colbert fan) and just thought they were just busting balls. When you put these details out... fooook, see it. Anyways , ❤️ the Channel. Cheers! 🌳🔥☁️☁️☁️👽👽👽👽

I want to say to Colbert “Why so serious?”

I almost feel like this was a two-part bit they co-wrote lol

self depricating is a part of conan's humor, but usually each joke is situated far apart from one another and its actually funny

Make more of these please

I'd just like to point out that the significance of this is completely different if one considers these 'put downs' as set ups for a great like Conan.

I was searched for this video a while back but couldnt find it, Only to find it now as a reupload. Any one know why his channel was deleted.

Damn...the comments are just fire

This is pretty spot on. I think there is OBVIOUSLY some bad blood between them but Conan being the more experiences and funnier one doesn't stoop down to Colbert's level

Conan is Irish Irish. Colbert is Anglo Irish

Yo what the fuck, I thought them hosts were being goofy, I didn't know this was a power struggle wtf 😂

He’s overthinking it.

Dude, do one on their quarantine video.

Conan had writers who went back to New York from L.A for Colbert who were had been with Conan from his new York days, so that where the comedy's coming from

I'm not surprised. Colbert is a narcissist more so than any other person I've ever seen. The man literally has the ceiling of his set for his show built like a cathedral but with his name and face painted on the ceiling. He consistently makes the show about himself when talking to guests, and because he is threatened by Conan's popularity and talent he hates Conan and doesn't even try to hide it.

This is the dumbest video I have ever seen in my life but it gave me a good laugh so I thank you. Not a complete waste of time.

The funniest thing about this whole video is how over analysed this is

Damn... 2020 is just hell, flipped into a pancake..

Colbert can’t let go of his Comedy Central character

this guy is a body language expert who doesn't understand sarcasm.
