I think people have the wrong idea. Conan isn’t the best host because of his comedy or his sketches, (though both of which are top tier) he’s the best because of how genuine he is. He’s so human. He experiences burnout and sadness and frustration just like everyone else, and he isn’t afraid of people knowing it.
I think you have the wrong idea. You’re lowkey insinuating Conan didn’t make it through by hard work or talent but just through manners and that the other hosts aren’t genuine. That’s not admirable at all
This might be the least toxic comments section on the entirety of the internet. It's so nice to see so many people expressing their love and gratitude for such a genuinely beautiful soul. I can't stop scrolling.
53:55 I love that Sona's trying to protect Conan a bit from all the people he has to constantly meet, and Conan immediately pipes in "That's not your job!" Conan's going through it in this movie, but you can tell he and his crew love each other.
I’m not happy that he did that! That was the only cringy part of the documentary. That kid was just speaking truthfully. This political correctness is killing comedy. Then the kid says “gyped” which is mildly derogatory towards gypsys. It’s OK to say I got Jewed.
@@appletongallery It's definitely not OK. Also, how is "political correctness" (being against derogatory terms) ruining comedy? I'd rather listen to the guy with the 3 decade-long successful comedy career. And I agree! Gypsys deserve respect too.
@@gloriozu - It’s definitely OK to be derogatory towards Jews. It’s definitely OK to be derogatory towards whites, Hispanics,etc. Why must Jews be protected from criticism? Are they so weak that they can’t be knocked?
Conan’s tour manager who you see in this movie is Gus Brandt. He was my tour manager for a while in the early 2000’s. Best in the biz. You absolutely can’t make him laugh. Ever. Sweetest guy in the world though. He’s with the Foo Fighters and Blink 182 now. Cheers Gus!

I'm so glad I finally got to sit down and watch this. The "Can't Stop" aspect made me sad for Conan a bit. Like, you don't HAVE to make everything a bit. We'll still like you. We'll understand if you just want to sit there and not make everyone talk into banana phones. There's such a sad desperation underneath the funny. After years of hearing it on the podcast, the Conan and Sona dynamic is fascinating to watch on screen. This was a nice peek inside the Conanverse.
Sona crying when they hugged 😭😭 granted Conan complained a lot even tho he never said no to anything. He reminds me of Trixie Mattel. Always piling his plate high and wondering why he’s so burnt out. Still love him and I’m still a fan. I get it.
"I cannot perform and entertainment people outside of the show, I have to keep my voice" and then goes off with his schtick. What a man, what a performer!
It really warms my heart how hardcore Conan sticks up for Sona for the whole problem backstage meet-and-greet stuff. She got sorta thrown under the bus and Conan would not have it. It would be the easiest thing in the world to just "blame the assistant" and let it go, but he sticks to his guns TWICE. 49:17 "No, you can't put this on Sona" 53:40 "That is not your job, it's ridiculous"
There's always been something a bit suspect about how he continues to include her in his life. She doesn't provide anything of value, yet she's always center-stage. If I were his wife, I wouldn't like it one bit.
13:18 I love how the tour manager doesn’t understand Sona and Conan’s relationship, so he is genuinely trying to smooth over the situation with the messed up food order 🤣🤣🤣
Conan tells this story on his podcast about how he kept saying he wanted drugs (?) and this guy, the tour manager would always earnestly tell him no lol
Seeing Conan so raw and vulnerable is both heartbreaking and aspirational. It’s never been about the money or status with him. It’s always been about the joy he gets in front of an audience and the joy the audience gets from him. He also surrounded himself with really good people that understood him and got him through that period; Sona, Sweeney, Blay, Ross, Andy and many others. Bless Liza too, she’s amazing. Much love to Team Coco. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next.
That kid's remark is a deliberately tactless & provocative reference to South Park; I can almost guarantee that. Although I very much doubt he comprehends the symbolism & social commentary South Park contains.
@@randygonzalez6250 Well, South Park was very big during the late 00s during the hey day of XBox Live full of teenage edgelords. So this kinda makes sense.
I teared up at the part with the backup singers for some reason. It was just Conan, messing around, showing people that it's okay to let go, be silly and be happy. Conan O'Brien has always been there to lift me up over the course of the past ten years. Conan O'Brien might need a friend, but he's always been mine.
Such an honest and fascinating documentary. I’ve only really become aware of Conan and his crew quite recently because of the wonderful podcasts. Conan’s such a hardworking guy and everyone who knows him loves him 👍😎
I've been watching Conan for over 20 years. I've heard him tackle a lot of societal issues without being in your face about it. 9/11, mass shootings, gay marriage, etc. But the way he handles 43:00 and just really reps being a stand up guy, he's legit my hero. Conan makes the world a better place.
Man I don't know what to say No amount of words can describe what this man is how he's helped me through my anxiety. He is an all rounder. He's everything. I just purely love him just love him
Andy said when the TBS show ended, there were people on staff with kids in college and who had never really worked anywhere else except for Conan. He said that didn't mean they were slackers; it was because it's a good place to work.
In his podcast, Conan said that Jack has the best deadpan responses, so that everyone thinks Conan really is a bully and Jack really hates this. But it's all acting and playing off on each other, believe it or not.
the bitching was hard to watch. as understandable as his exhaustion may have been. seems like maybe he should just have darted out of those places after the show.
42:57 probably the most cringeworthy moment of the doc where Conan shuts down the antisemitism of the kid. A lot of kids nowadays need a moment like that with the amount of "edgy" humor flying around that quickly denigrates into just casual racism. The other kids try to laugh it off but Conan really doesn't let him off on it, great scene
100% dope AF & the film that caused me to experience envy for another man's talent & drive for the 1st time ever. Conan is the man, and we're lucky to have him.
I remember when this came out 15 years ago, I had never seen Sona before. Definitely had a crush; her personality and that thick curly hair are still terrific even now. But in 2024 she’s relatively famous in her own right, we know her FAMILY thanks to things like the Armenia travelogue, Tak exists in story form like Maris from Frasier, and Conan treats Mikey & Charlie like they’re his own grandsons. It’s so funny to think there was a time the fandom didn’t know her name, and/or she was relatively backstage. Not no more 😂 CONaF is the best show going, and I’m so grateful we get an Act III in Conan’s career thanks to podcasting.
really is a class act to allow those kids who where bashing Jews to not just watch the show but also go to rehearsal. I hope that they grew wiser as they got older.
Third time watching this and I must say, as a documentary, this is superb. Makers did a great job telling the story through just shots (e.g. the cookie gift being broken after all the people came in and out). All the small little moments they captured. Great combination of a fascinating subject and thoughtful film making
I love it Conan how you put your point across in a non-violitile way. Having being treated with disrespect impacts everyone who loves you. Be strong lol
I've watched this so many times, but I'm never NOT blown away that he sold 2000 tickets in 20 minutes at 7 am. He's a jaw dropping, inspiration and still manages to be a genuine and beautiful human. ❤
You can tell conan is a great person....because almost all of his staff is still going strong (2022)....kill'n it with conan o'brian needs a friend podcast...New show coming up soon...this man can't just stop..and we don't want him to stop.
Andy said when the TBS show ended, there were people on staff with kids in college and who had never really worked anywhere else except for Conan. He said that didn't mean they were slackers; it was because it was a good place to work.
I love that he’s wearing a roots hoodie. Might not be very popular outside of Canada but they make some of the most comfortable and durable clothes ever.
Always loved Conan, but the older I get the more I realize how toxic media culture was back then (90s-2000s specifically), and the more I have a newfound appreciation for Conan. 💗 I first realized it when I started noticing that he makes everyone seem so comfortable, even the most notoriously awkward and uncomfortable people (like Kristen Stewart for example). And how different some of his older interviews seem when compared against some of the other late night show host’s interviews (Letterman forcing girls to kiss him first comes to mind, and many of the rest asking super gross or intrusive “gotcha” questions and making super demeaning jokes about women.) Conan seems like a truly great man and this gave me an even better behind-the-scenes view of it. You can also tell that keeping his team employed was weighing really heavily on him. Hope to see him doing some more great stuff again in the near future 💗
Wow, someone who doesn't actually like letterman! My kinda guy! Edit: the funny part is you're not a guy. Hope you got the joke, since you were talking about toxic culture 😜
I can't imagine what it must feel like having fun before your show with Jim Carrey, Craig Robinson, Nick Offerman and Jon Hamm... I know the general vibe of this documentary is he's working his ass off, but seriously what a life he's had...
what a legend. He has conquered the comedy world and has become a living legend. He is up there with Comedy Gods like Groucho Marx , Richard Pryor, Johnny Carsson and Monty Python. He is The Ginger Hurricane , a pale and sickly force of nature ! I would have loved to see more of him and the band. TEAM COCO 4 LIFE
36:50 Jeff Ross is so good at his job. He seems how exhausted Conan is, and how worried he is about that fact and comes in with the perfectone word reassurance on the spot.
okay but conan was literally my childhood , i grew up with his humor and personality and was so happy when his show carried on into my teen years ! 💕 forever team coco !
What amazes me is after the shocking amount of talk show hosts who were revealed to be running a toxic workplace in the last few years and were themselves pretty horrible human beings, the more I learn about Conan the more I understand why he's not one of them. I've been laughing at his jokes since I was a kid enjoying the golden era Simpsons early seasons so I'm glad he thrives while all the others get cancelled. And even more glad he survived the backstabby behaviour from Leno. As much as I like the guy and his Garage show is often excellent, that's a real blemish on him.
watching the getting ready to tour part is painful to watch - the stress for everyone, except maybe sona, is heavy. welcome to eugene ....sona to mom.."ok dude" , i was "mommy dude" to my son. i can relate to all this. stress, humor, self doubt - success by a thousand cuts. AARRGGHH. great show....
When I go to Bonnaroo I usually go to the comedy tent to sleep, it's air conditioned, dark and quiet half the time. I didn't even know he was going to be performing till ppl started rolling in. It was so damn funny. Great suprise that year.
This is a great documentary. Conan deserves all the success and should always be on screen or audio. One of the funniest genuine good humans on the planet.
Conan was my favorite before allyall. Not really a word. Since the 90's. With his "in the year 2000....in the year 2000....." best interviewer BY FAR!! My God he saved so many interviews.....so underrated but brilliant.
Yes me too. I can still remember the high pitched voice saying "in the year 2000". I was in middle school lol. I remember the first time I saw him on tv I thought he was great
Thanks for uploading, I doubt if have ever seen this without it being on RUclips. Just heard about it on the Inside Conan podcast. Now if we could just get full episodes of the shows on RUclips!
This and of course Conan are always great!! Glad I was able to see this now. Didn't know about it. What platform was it shown on? 10 years later... Man alive!! Hey, better late than never. 😉
Sona and Andy are like 24hr therapists. They're amazing.
They’re like family.

I would have loved to see more of him and the band.

36:50 Jeff Ross is so good at his job. He seems how exhausted Conan is, and how worried he is about that fact and comes in with the perfectone word reassurance on the spot.
okay but conan was literally my childhood , i grew up with his humor and personality and was so happy when his show carried on into my teen years ! 💕 forever team coco !
That's your problem.
Conan Obrien cosplaying Bill Burr being an executive is awesome
He’s a National Treasure we’re all lucky to have.
What amazes me is after the shocking amount of talk show hosts who were revealed to be running a toxic workplace in the last few years and were themselves pretty horrible human beings, the more I learn about Conan the more I understand why he's not one of them.
I've been laughing at his jokes since I was a kid enjoying the golden era Simpsons early seasons so I'm glad he thrives while all the others get cancelled. And even more glad he survived the backstabby behaviour from Leno. As much as I like the guy and his Garage show is often excellent, that's a real blemish on him.
watching the getting ready to tour part is painful to watch - the stress for everyone, except maybe sona, is heavy.
welcome to eugene ....sona to mom.."ok dude" , i was "mommy dude" to my son. i can relate to all this. stress, humor, self doubt - success by a thousand cuts. AARRGGHH. great show....
When I go to Bonnaroo I usually go to the comedy tent to sleep, it's air conditioned, dark and quiet half the time. I didn't even know he was going to be performing till ppl started rolling in. It was so damn funny. Great suprise that year.
I was actually at the show at radio city where i wanna say john krasinski and eli manning were at. Incredible!
conan o'brien must not be stopped
The secret to Conan's longevity :
Coming home to a wife like that
She is lovely indeed
The real question is this: why would you ever work long hours when that hottie is waiting for you at home?

@@Tonyhouse1168Familiarity breeds contempt.
Conan is amazing!!!!! He's such a class act. He's the perfect mix of wit and grit. I love his offbeat sense of humor. Team Coco forever!! ❤️
This is a great documentary. Conan deserves all the success and should always be on screen or audio. One of the funniest genuine good humans on the planet.
i didnt even know conan is a dad, what a greatest dad
I cant help but shed happy tears every now and then when I see this again. I always come back to see this beast in action.
Omg Sona is so adorable 🥺
14:56 "We're not going on TBS"
And then he was there for 10 years 😂
1:02:39 Holy SHIT. That's Kristen Schaal??? The voice of Mabel from Gravity Falls? Louise Blecher from Bob's Burgers!?
Conan is still the best ❤ much love from the Philippines ❤
Conan was my favorite before allyall. Not really a word. Since the 90's. With his "in the year 2000....in the year 2000....." best interviewer BY FAR!! My God he saved so many interviews.....so underrated but brilliant.
Yes me too. I can still remember the high pitched voice saying "in the year 2000". I was in middle school lol. I remember the first time I saw him on tv I thought he was great
Conan is one of the best humans every. I can't see a single flaw. Hes the best
His improv skills are great.
Thank you for uploading this! Would've loved to buy it, but it's sadly not available in Germany.
No worries mate 🙂
The moment around 1:18:00 really got to me for some reason. A mix of care and frustration and support.
man these guys take their school reunions seriously
Conan is the only person you can be 100% sure doesn’t fake it in a strobe light
seeing this is a glimpse into beautiful insanity and unstoppable work ethic and staying kind to people…. side note - sona is a beast!!!
Holy shit didnt know Eddie Vedder performed for Conan's show! So incredible!!
Conan sayin “were not goin on TBS” ,then shitting on TBS by then joking about the Oxygen Network, only to end up on TBS for the rest of his run 😆
42:39 Sona's smile is everything
And then later when he hugs her and she starts crying ❤️
The greatest Late Night Host/comedian in the US
It takes a ton of energy to move nonstop like that dance he did.
It's one of my biggest regrets is that I somehow didn't know this tour was happening and missed it.
57:20 I keep coming back to this bit
I would give anything to work for Conan. A true dream job.
Nikki Glazer put it nicely, his comedic sense make me feel seen and understood.
Glad to see the crew taking precautions by bringing Dr Arroyo along 3:50
Thanks for uploading, I doubt if have ever seen this without it being on RUclips. Just heard about it on the Inside Conan podcast. Now if we could just get full episodes of the shows on RUclips!
This man was working on his day off! 🙌🏾
Given I think I've seen everything with Sona on the Conan RUclips channel, I'm kind of amazed how involved she is in this.
He keeps her around all these years for a reason and this documentary shows everybody the reason.
This and of course Conan are always great!! Glad I was able to see this now.
Didn't know about it. What platform was it shown on? 10 years later... Man alive!!
Hey, better late than never. 😉
I’m starting to understand why they say you need positive people around you to “make” it.
They were so young, I love this movie! I was just commenting yesterday on how I like James Corden, but Conan is my #1, so true for me.
Being true is something Corden lacks of
@@LageRUclips Or funny
I adore Conan and his team . ❤
