True story: Back in2003 I used to tape Conan on VCR. I still have the tapes! But I don`t have a VCR. No point to this, Just feeling nostalgic, thats all.
I have alot of great content from the 90`s and 2000`s. Old SNL shows, Old letterman, "Breaking news" for all kinds of things . I need to find someone to convert those tapes to files I can upload on RU-vid!
It's very easy. I did it before for home videos I had. You just need a VCR and a dongle connecting the VCR to a computer. The dongle is a small thing that connect those old audio/video cables and switches them to USB. And maybe a software that saves/records what your computer is playing through the VCR. Here is an Amazon link to different dongles and different prices. I bought the cheapest one before: www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=vcr+to+pc
I used to tape Conan every night in 97 -99 when I was in highschool and watch when I came home from school everyday... I sent Conan a letter inviting him to my freshman homecoming... I can't imagine why I never got a response lol...
7:50 - single moments like this are funnier than the combined output of other chat show hosts' entire comedic outputs. Conan in full flow is a beautiful, beautiful thing.
Aw man, these were his best years imho. I grew up with the late 90s to mid 2000s Conan with the old sets and Writers' strike and all that. I really miss the old Late Nite show.
I’ve been trying to find this remote again for so long! I’m so glad I accidentally stumbled up it again. The drunk comment, and the wedding ring comment he made are just too good 😂
Because he is a gentleman. What would all said if they were mostly men. "Oh Conan, that sick bastard left all the women outside in the cold" (said with a tiny shrilly voice)
Pretty sure Dennis was inspired, directly or indirectly, by Robert Plant. His "I am a golden god!" quote made it into the film _Almost Famous,_ which was based on the writer/director's time on the road as a music journalist with such bands at Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant's words are relatively well-known, but the writers at IASIP may have heard them through _Almost Famous_ without knowing they came from Plant. I am almost 100% certain that Conan was referencing Plant here and not spontaneously using this phrase.
Funny how back then they actually played the music as opposed to now in the newer remotes they "don't have the money for the rights" and play some other beat..lol
When I worked for Brinks I saw M.C. Hammer at a gas station in Tracy, CA. No he was not wearing the Hammer pants and no he was not doing the Hammer Walk.
MC Hammer's actually Scottish. William McHammer he's called, but he started using only his surname early in his career and it evolved from there. The McHammers date back to the twelfth century, one of the first highland tribes to settle in Scotland, along with the Mcsalots whose direct ancestor, Sir McSalot, was knighted in 2015. Wikipedia if you want to know more
"You can't touch this" was originally an ancient somber bagpipe tune about some of the un-climbable and therefore untouchable crags in the Scottish highlands, fact
Lmao I’m in bed w my partner and I am holding back laughing so hard. “You seem like u didn’t want to admit you were single, as if a 6’4 pervert is standing over you” yo Conan is so damn funny
