Our democracy is under siege from the GOP, oligarchs are destroying the middle class, Republican judges are targeting women, minorities, immugrants, and the LGBTQ community...and all Tapper does is write books, stare blankly at guests who spew lies, and interview celebrities. Tapper fits in well with the Vichy French of WWII.
I met Conan a few times. The first time is something I’ll never forget. he was the absolute sweetest guy. Like how you’d hope he would be. He played such a HUGE part of my childhood from 10 years old on (and I’m 40 next week) and when I was telling him in the most calm /chill way how big he was to me as a kid and how the show was a huge comfort for me due to just…chaos in my family ..I absolutely got emotional out of nowhere and he goes “I’m so glad I could be there for you during that time.” And was so kind and gave me a hug. I think it cured my childhood trauma lolll I waited 27 years for that . But we also chatted about stuff after but mannnn I’ll never forget that. He is an absolute gem.
This secondhand cured mine 🥲😭🥹🥲. I’m so glad you had that experience with him! Sounds like he’s the absolute best and one of the heroes you want to meet. I hope I get to talk to him one day and tell him how much he means to me and has made me smile, laugh, and have hope in the hardest times. Also how much I look up to him for how he treats others even when they hurt him - he never lashed out at Jay for the crap he pulled. Even tho everyone would have backed him up on it. In that 60minutes interview for his tour, he had the opportunity to tear Jay apart and he didn’t. He said he wished him and the heads of the network the best. In the midst of his pain. An absolute class act. Yes the occasional joke on air here and there but never disparaging and harmful. I love him and look up to him. He’s like another Robin Williams to me in his own way - with just how much he’s made me laugh and brought comfort by his performances/shows/demeanor. Anyway…. Love you, Coco! So glad he is as kind in person to regular folks as he appears to be
Also was impressed he knew the name of this absolutely obscure and silly sketch they did like in the late 90s…they did it ONE time and I described it barely and he knew the name of it like instantly. Howwww? (Ps. It was Tea Copywriter Cage Match)
I was sitting at an outdoor restaurant one evening and I noticed Conan sitting by himself at a table writing in a notebook around ten feet away from me. There were just the two of us and out of respect for his privacy, I had no intention of connecting with him. However, as he glanced up from his writing, he immediately started a conversation with me as if we were already friends. The exchange was warm and engaging and a few weeks later, I again saw him at a breakfast restaurant with his wife. I was so impressed that he remembered my name and even gave his wife a brief summary of the conversation we had. Well beyond his celebrity stature, he is truly a nice guy.,
I’m not sure Conan truly knows how much he has helped ordinary people everywhere in the world find themselves. I grew up with Conan in Germany and I still to this day have adopted his credo “work hard and be good to everyone”. Conan is part of the good in this world
He knows. Him going to Finland should be proff enough. If not I hear on the 18th he's got some stuff coming out where he goes to fans across the world.
He made his assistant famous and all of his writers famous. He made his "Associate Producer" Jordan Sylansky famous. In a nutshell yeah, he made his staff famous , he can make his fans famous. Hell Conan is a rare breed cause he was a nobody even when he got famous. As David Lettermen ellegantly said. Conan got the Golden Ticket. Now he is giving it to everyone. He is a smart man.
@@anthonygordon9483 Yep, and Sona and Jack McBrayer, too. He also made Korean lady and two Japanese ladies in his Korea/Japan remotes funny as hell. Conan has that Midas Touch to make 'regular people' shine and have their moments, and that is what sets him apart from many other comedians and late night hosts.
@@aratilishehe Joke or not I would cancel him over that. The s*** people got canceled over but this guy insulted the majority of population like some lesser race because we arent celebrities.
Just met Conan O’Brien in person delivered food to him. I looked up and said Big Fan. He immediately said thank you asked my name and shook my hand. Not that I’m shocked but I deliver to celebrities often and they aren’t always this enthusiastic. He seemed very genuine. I’m glad to share the story about his character.
@@PabloTheThinker LMAO! You do NOT represent 50%, that number fortunately is much, much smaller. The amount of people whose views are so warped by trashy Far-Right counter-cultural nonsense that they use cringeass words like "woke" to describe someone as universally beloved as Conan O'brien is at BEST 5-10% And he didn't lose his show, he got tired of the format after 30 years.
Well, everyone is talking to and about Conan now because of his new show and his podcast has been active this entire time. The last time I heard anything about Jay Leno in several years, maybe 5 or so, was reading your comment. So, I think we both know who has been more successful.
Ironically, I was watching old segments with Norm MacDonald on David Letterman last night. The "Don Ohlmeyer got me fired" one. Dave called him a pinhead. Don Olhmeyer that is. Then today I hear that OJ had died. Scary... I wonder what Norm will be saying to them up there!!!
How can you not think of Norm when OJ dies, norm was an original and one of the bravest comedians ever. I still laugh at the thought of his boss telling him to stop with the OJ jokes, he really didn't understand who he was talking to, and norm did the whole weekend update on only OJ. Lol, Rip Norm.
As a kid in the 90s I stayed up even on school nights to watch Late Night With Connan O'Brien. Loved how Max was a good sport with a the jokes at his expense.
Same! I always hated the fact that he came out so late bc i would be dozing off waiting for his show. Pretty sure its the reason i screwed up my sleep schedule at such an early age :/
So happy to see this show come to fruition. His comedy always thrived doing remotes and bouncing off of other people’s energy. It brings me great satisfaction to see him be in his element enjoying and doing what he does best - doing tomfoolery out in the world.
Conan's "remotes" were better than 95% of official travel shows. Despite the jokes, he showcases and appreciate the culture of each place he visited. I am looking forward to watching his show.
Love you Conan! Your podcast has been a bright spot for me in the last few years. Makes me laugh every time, no matter how worried or upset I am. Very uplifting--and my favorite way to avoid thinking about the scary things going on in the world.
I always enjoyed Conan O'Brien and felt he got the "raw end" of the Tonight Show hosting deal. But he seems to have landed well which shows his resilience and talent.
Conan on Hot Ones will go down in the history books. 😂 There's zero argument he was the BEST to ever be on there, imo. Conan is an absolute legend 🙌 been waiting TOO long for his MAX show!!!
You know he didnt get late night but he went on to create a successful podcast where he has complete creative control and now a show on HBO where he gets to travel the world and experience the best of each culture he visits.
I am so looking forward to this show. Conan’s remote segments on his show was always my favorite part. I love how good he is with people and it really inspires me to be a happier person. Conan has an amazing ability to find humor and joy in any situation and I really wish I could tell him in person how much he helped me with my depression. God bless this man. Protect him at all costs.
It's very invigorating to see Conan still going strong. Looking at him I can't help but believe a little that good things do come to those who deserve it.
With my eyes on AWM89V this 2024 is gonna be actual worth it for once after we had all the drama in the past. Some however will still close their eyes in front of that beauty and those can't be helped at all, rip
I love Conan, watch him only on RU-vid though, there's no PBS (or ABC, CBS and NBC) in Brazil. It's a shame there aren't that many Brazilian fans to justify him coming here for the new show.
I am definitely a huge fan! I think Conan is very talented and unique! I named my son after him 😂, I can’t believe there are not that many people named Conan 😅. Looking forward to his new show release next week❤️❤️❤️
Sometimes I wish Conan still had a late night show, but given my watching habits I doubt I'd really watch it just like I don't watch Jimmy Fallon. But Conan is a national treasure. I listen to every episode of his podcast and will watch this show.
It was the best thing to happen. He was given $30m to quit after a few weeks, has complete creative control, and was able to avoid becoming a network drone for america. Amen.
I hope Conan comes to Japan again and does something fascinating thing to people who have lost the idea how to make their life fun and filled with joy. I am one of his fans now and can't wait to watch his show.
