You've been requesting Conan for years, we've been chasing Conan for years, and the Hot Ones interview has finally arrived! What was your favorite moment?
@@jasonkempton5222 You bring up an interesting point, but it highlights how very NOT that way he's acting. Belittling your efforts and throwing them away is fully in the heart of comedy. But that's when you're ironically undermining something that's good. When you're authentically admitting something ISN'T good, that might buy you a sympathy laugh from nice people-- but in truth, it's throwing in the towel. It's not just saying it's bad- it's also saying you can't make it better.
@@jasonkempton5222 *Context matters.* He's referring to guests who genuinely believes the show is stale and say it out loud, making the audience even more disappointed. When Conan says it, it's always when the show has gone completely bonkers and off the rails; which is exactly the kind of comedy gold footage people love to watch.
Totally agree with the comments that there’s something beautiful in going essentially together, and they lived a long life, but still, losing the two people that brought you into this life in such a short time is heavy, my heart aches for him.
Dude is 61 next week, drank hot sauce, taught us about reading high and low, and plugged his new show without a single fumble of words. This is true old school professional
@@n3cr0ph4g1st I really love Gordon's show though. And it hits different because he's a chef and they are eating food together. And he goes pretty bezerk too. Conan is an absolute comedian though! He was amazing!
This is the best episode of Hot Ones I’ve ever seen so far. Conan is literally a comedic genius of many different styles, quick witted, well read, and completely engaging with the audience. His comment about finding comedy from anywhere just shows he’s a true disciple of the craft.
Agreed! I recently subscribed to a streaming service and came upon Hot Ones. This by far is the best episode I've seen so far! I've just started binge watching and am looking forward to what's to come. If anyone has a suggested show to watch that would be cool!
This was fake obviously. You can't just will yourself out of tearing up after getting peppered sprayed any more than he can drink those hot sauces without INVOLUNTARY responses. People are astoundingly gullible.
No one in the comments mentions it but I love how he instantly said "Nixon" at 17:55 when Sean asked him which US president would make a great guest on his podcast. The man didn't even hesitate as if he'd been waiting for someone to ask him that for ages
I got to meet Conan once at a charity auction for a theater company in New York. I had introduced myself as a fan and was chatting with him about his suit when the lights went down and everyone looked to the front of the room for the auction winner announcements. I turned around and had just assumed that Conan walked away but right as the room got quiet, he whispered in my ear from behind "this is when they decide who lives and who dies." and I erupted into laughter in the middle of an otherwise silent room.
Conan pulled off 3 running jokes (wings in pocket, wings aren't hot, dr arroyo) in a 25 min show where he isn't even the host. His wit and understanding of comedic pacing is absolutely incredible.
For those who are unaware: Dr Arroyo was played by José Arroyo, who’s been a writer for Conan since 2002. It’s amazing how Conan can keep his people around for ages. Some have been with him since the start.
Happy to see him again; was wondering what he might be up to since the switch to the podcast life. I think he was the funniest of his bit players over the years. Stack was good too, but this guy could really get me gut busting.
It's a shame he's a coward politically and literally works with Henry Kissinger's son (who by all accounts is nothing but proud of the war crimes his father committed) and performs at Bohemian Grove, but the way he takes care of the people around him in ways basically nobody in showbusiness does makes it impossible to dislike the man.
@@buck_swope he's a former NBC exec and president of Conan's production company. It's sort of impossible for Conan to avoid working with him. Also Conan doesn't talk politics much but when an issue is brought up he's clearly left-leaning (for Americans at least)
You see Conan wait until he starts to walk away and then asks "Did you graduate?" because the joke was funnier that way. Hilarious and they know each other really well.
From the small touch of pocketing the wings, to the steadfast tolerance of the sauces: this wasn't an interview, it was a masterclass on entertainment.
Conan is an amazing comedian and person. You should watch the commencement address he gave a few years back. A true masterclass in being an amazing, humble, terrific person!
"I'm an irish man who's never seen spice" proceeds to give the most impressive peformance ever, bathing his wing in more "da bomb" while giving the most chill reaction ever. madness
that guy's mother THINKS he's a REAL doctor ... and they PRACTICE (medicine) from the time they get their license ... to the day (just) before they RETIRE ... so ...
24:28 My favorite part. He made sure to thank and compliment Sean and I just found that so classy from someone spewing spittle, hot sauce and masticated chicken wings, while clearly in the throes of spice-induced delirium.
I absolutely love Conan.. I've been watching him since 93--94. One of my first jobs was the overnight shift at Walmart unloading tractor trailers.. our first break of the shift was when Late night would come on and I would always make sure I got to the break room first and put the TV on Conan to catch the monolog.. It's hard to wrap my head around the fact that "in the year 2000" was so long ago way before the year 2000! Now here we are in 2024 almost 2025.. I am still a huge fan and watch everything that is put out.. Conan has been one of the most significant highlights of entertainment before the term "text message" or "selfie" was even a thought.. I hope he is here for many years to come!!!
When Conan compliments Sean's interviewing skills, man. Such high praise(and deserved, Sean is great) from someone who has worked as a talk show host for so long. I can imagine Sean got goosebumps in that moment. Probably my favorite Hot Ones episode.
I don't know how many times I have thought that over the years and then Sean tops it. Edit: Ok, now that I'm almost all the way through it I have no idea how this could be topped.
you commented this only 12 minutes after the episode was released. even if you have no job and started watching immediately at 2x speed you still wouldn't have quite finished
Conan's unhinged speech about how there's comedy everywhere and how we should look high and look low is honestly one of the most motivational and beautiful things I've heard in a while.
That's sad af. Look how pathetically small you've made your world, that you miss it all to the point that, amidst the free access to the global cultural renaissance in your pocket, your peak inspiration is a conan obrien monologue. You clearly have access to the internet. Feel free to use it.
“What are you guna read? Read widely and read well. There’s comedy in the Old Testament. There’s comedy in the New Testament. You can read all kids of stuff. Just don’t lock yourself into, ‘It’s gotta be some kind of comedy from the last ten years.’ No! There’s great comedy out there. It was written a long time ago. What’s funnier than Don Quixote, Sancho Panza? You know, this is good stuff. The classics are funny, you know? Read Chaucer’s tales, they’re funny. There’s funny everywhere, don’t be a snob-look high and look low. Mad magazine is funny. There’s funny stuff online all the time. There’s no reason for us to exclude one category over another.”
This is the most impressive display of comedy, intelligence, masochism, self-restraint, and professionalism I've ever seen. Conan broke the engine of the show.
@@MM-ud1xfbasically the whole video. I’m pretty bewildered by the fact that he didn’t just lay down and scream in agony after rubbing all those hot sauce on his face.
I was planning on binging some more Hot Ones episodes tonight, but after that masterpiece of a episode, I don’t think I can. It’s just not gunna get any better than that. This is the new gold standard for Hot Ones guests. How can someone possibly top that?
Conan screaming "IM FINE!!! IM FINE!!!" while drooling like a baby, covered in about a billion scovilles all over his face has to go down in hot ones history lol
I love the fact that even though he goes crazy with the bit, he still takes the time to answer all of the questions respectfully and takes them seriously.
For a guest to completely turn an episode upside down, in a good way, for a show that has been running for so many years, he must be a legend. And Conan is indeed the legend.
@@johndawson6057 It would be awe-inspiring to see Conan O'Brien doing serious interview to some really controversial person like tRump. Similar case was Sir David Frost interviewing former US-president Richard Nixon. Conan could repeat that kind of grilling.
this made me cry. Conan is the best. He's made me laugh probably more than anyone else on planet earth. Dudes clearly got an amazing attitude to life and comedy. I wish there were more comedians around who died by comedy and appreciated it all like this guy.
Conan is a legend. One of the best talk show host and comedian there ever was. A loyal, humble, good, irish, immature, childlike, goes into character whenever he doesn't want to face reality, people's person. God bless him.
Conan was amazing, but you gotta give credit to Steve-O for chugging a bottle of hot sauce and then pouring some in his eyes. Sean looked genuinely scared haha
How does anyone or anything ever live up to this? I say this sincerely with no exaggeration, this is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen on RUclips. Conan still finding ways to make me cry laughing all these years later.
I agree. The last few episodes I watched convinced me it was time to move on with this concept and I still do. Just glad to have this episode which could likely be the last. Sean seemed bored this season.
What’s wrong with me why can’t I feel? 😂 Conan is truly a multigenerational talent. In 50 years from now we will still be coming back to his work. Yet somehow I still feel as if he is underrated & undervalued, but the real ones know Conan is the GOAT
Oh, it's a bit. Conan is answering all the questions in a serious while dedicating himself to seeming unbothered by the wings while dying physically. It's food absurdism. @@CaptainPanick
I saw the Hot Ones rankings and had to watch this one. No one will ever top Conan on Hot Wings. If this era feels cursed otherwise, we have truly been blessed here 🙏🏻
"That's not what showbusiness is about. Showbusiness is about putting on the greatest show in the world" is honestly an incredible quote. Especially given by a man who is dousing himself in hot sauce whilse saying it, just to entertain people.
@@negydimenziosember People saying Conan took over the show and trying to pretend Sean was somehow overwhelmed and didn't contribute have no clue what they are talking about. A bad host would try to fight with the guest and one-up them, trying to keep control over the tone and pace of the show and prioritizing that over putting on a funny show. Knowing when the guest is on a roll and stepping back to let them keep momentum is a sign of an experience confident host, and Sean did a fantastic job of it here.
A lot of guests compliment Sean on his interviewing, but I feel like Conan's compliment was the most sincere/genuine I've seen. He really wanted Sean to feel good with that one.
@@misterchris3491 Which is dumb because it's all owned by the same company and splitting it up like that just loses all your brand recognition. I understand their thought process might be "HBO is the prestige brand" but in doing that their shooting whatever success Max might have in the foot.
Rarely do i leave comments, but this is my absolute favorite episode! Conan has always been hilarious in my eyes, and this solidifies his comedic genius.
Conan said sweet things, but... Him FULLY committing to this show with all the energy and passion he could muster is the highest praise he could have given Sean. It's the ultimate sign of respect in improv comedy.
Yep-Conan's performance when interviewed for 'In The Actor's Studio' was VERY similar-but with WATER, strangely. He just kept drinking jug after jug of it. The man is an ox!
It's hilarious comparing this absolutely chaotic interview to the calm, collected, and intelligent one he did on his wife's podcast. Dude is so ridiculously dynamic.
I can just hear Sona laughing in the background loving every minute that he's torturing himself for this perfect iconic moment because she knows he wouldn't have it any other way. 😂
This is the best interview ever. Conan was Conan when he needed to be but gave us insightful serious answers to Sean’s questions that left me feeling like I know him on a more personal level. He’s a really interesting dude. I especially liked this moment 7:27 when he gave Sean his props. Sean was moved, you could tell.
I still remember his monolog on that last show about not giving up. "I hate cynicism - it’s my least favorite quality and it doesn’t lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you’re kind, amazing things will happen. As proof, let’s make an amazing thing happen right now." - Conan
I’m soooooooo in love with all of the Conan love in the comments. How he still doesn’t have his talk show is beyond me, I will never get over his comparison to ANY big talk show these days, they will never compare to how phenomenal Conan is.
My second time watching this interview, and realizing that Conan really did something clever here. He spent the whole interview telling us how to be a good showman WHILE showing us exactly what he meant in the way he kept entertaining I wonder if he had this all planned out
I love that the purpose of this show was to throw interviewees just a bit off-kilter, and finally it was Sean's turn to be thrown entirely off his interview game.

Saddest thing to happen to the guy, losing both his parents in 3 days. He doesn't deserve that. Love this man.
Now I get why he’s so funny
They lived a long and happy life. So and matt say he's doing okay, hope that continues
Nah, I think he takes comfort in the fact that his parents both loved each other...to death. it's very poetic.
They were in their 90s and it was coming for a few months. Everybody goes at some point so this is the best way to go

they need to put that on a hot ones t-shirt, hahaha
This finale will go down in history as the best one. This is peak of peaks. I cannot see anyone else going even further.
I don't know how many times I have thought that over the years and then Sean tops it.
Edit: Ok, now that I'm almost all the way through it I have no idea how this could be topped.
His hair is.
@@jhousekey100 true. We do keep winning with this show.
Absolutely!! Conan is fu__kin king 😂😅😂
you commented this only 12 minutes after the episode was released. even if you have no job and started watching immediately at 2x speed you still wouldn't have quite finished
Conan's unhinged speech about how there's comedy everywhere and how we should look high and look low is honestly one of the most motivational and beautiful things I've heard in a while.
I though I was the only one touched by his speach. To live life to the fullest.
That's sad af. Look how pathetically small you've made your world, that you miss it all to the point that, amidst the free access to the global cultural renaissance in your pocket, your peak inspiration is a conan obrien monologue. You clearly have access to the internet. Feel free to use it.
If that's the most motivational thing you've heard as of 2024, I'm glad and you probably deserve it.
“What are you guna read? Read widely and read well. There’s comedy in the Old Testament. There’s comedy in the New Testament. You can read all kids of stuff. Just don’t lock yourself into, ‘It’s gotta be some kind of comedy from the last ten years.’ No! There’s great comedy out there. It was written a long time ago. What’s funnier than Don Quixote, Sancho Panza? You know, this is good stuff. The classics are funny, you know? Read Chaucer’s tales, they’re funny. There’s funny everywhere, don’t be a snob-look high and look low. Mad magazine is funny. There’s funny stuff online all the time. There’s no reason for us to exclude one category over another.”
I watched that part like four times lol
Conan is the only talk show host who is actually good. Literally the only good one I've seen.
Yep, the others don't know what comedy is and 90% of their shows is just outright shilling.
@@oBCHANo Yups
Craig Ferguson.
@@Tonyhouse1168 True, he isn't bad.
To think that a single episode of hot ones could eclipse the careers of almost every current or former host of the last ten years. Legend
"You're a great interviewer."
Coming from Conan O'Brien, that's incredibly high praise.
It's a legit compliment though , the host is questions where very interesting for the audience and the guest
This is the most impressive display of comedy, intelligence, masochism, self-restraint, and professionalism I've ever seen. Conan broke the engine of the show.
Can you give me the time stamp for the self-restraint part?
@@MM-ud1xfbasically the whole video. I’m pretty bewildered by the fact that he didn’t just lay down and scream in agony after rubbing all those hot sauce on his face.
@@KendrixD Or even just his fingers. I wear gloves to cut chili, no way he wasn't in pain.
"You're not a real doctor, are you?"
"I should be" 😂😂😂
lol
"You did four years of medical school?"
"It was supposed to be."
"he's not going to tell you what it's at"
"No, he doesn't even understand the numbers" 😂
"You should go"
I was planning on binging some more Hot Ones episodes tonight, but after that masterpiece of a episode, I don’t think I can. It’s just not gunna get any better than that. This is the new gold standard for Hot Ones guests. How can someone possibly top that?
> dips the wing in the sauce bottle
> throws the wing
> drinks right out the bottle
> refuses to elaborate further
Puts the used wings in his pocket. BRILLIANT.
based Conan
Conan screaming "IM FINE!!! IM FINE!!!" while drooling like a baby, covered in about a billion scovilles all over his face has to go down in hot ones history lol
With tears in his eyes 😂
His eyes…I can’t handle this.
Don't think that's how the scoville scale works. A hundred onions are not as spicy as a habanero pepper
@@MrGreen876I think the Scoville scale might be exponential but I could be wrong
@@MrGreen876look up hyperbole, mate
Man, he radiated more energy in 25 minutes than I've done in 25 years.
lol
I pity you
@@vitotondo3274 shut up neck beard
How sad
mate
at 25:30 it looks like Conan had forgot there was other people in the studio and was simultaneously surprised and happy for the applauds 😂
Conan has the superhuman ability of "Committing to the Bit" which allows him to do anything as long as it's for the entertainment of an audience.
"You think this is a bit!? This is life!"
"This is your SHOW. Don't say 'Commit to the BIT' , you've got to GRAB IT BY THE BALLZ"
He couldn't feel the bomb through his need to entertain 😂 it was only coming through tangentially
The show must go on
Painkillers
I love the fact that even though he goes crazy with the bit, he still takes the time to answer all of the questions respectfully and takes them seriously.
Yea this is absolutely key! It still makes the show instead of just being chaos and nonsense.
It’s not a bit! ITS LIFE!
True, true professional
Preach!
For a guest to completely turn an episode upside down, in a good way, for a show that has been running for so many years, he must be a legend. And Conan is indeed the legend.
True 👏👏
You should watch any Conan interview, he always dominates wherever he goes.
@@johndawson6057 It would be awe-inspiring to see Conan O'Brien doing serious interview to some really controversial person like tRump. Similar case was Sir David Frost interviewing former US-president Richard Nixon. Conan could repeat that kind of grilling.
Robin Williams is the only other comedian I can think of, that could take a show and turn it completely upside down. Conan is a genius.
this made me cry. Conan is the best. He's made me laugh probably more than anyone else on planet earth. Dudes clearly got an amazing attitude to life and comedy. I wish there were more comedians around who died by comedy and appreciated it all like this guy.
The doctor answering with the year he graduated instead of where as his introduction is an incredible moment of comedy
only to later say "it was supposed to be 4 years"
Dr was basically the new Aaron blazer, games guy
Are you a doctor?
I should be. 😀
I prefer my comedy from the Old Testament.
"I like to announce my mistakes up front." - Conan. Absolutely hilarious.
20:52 truly an expert entertainer with decades of experience
..sometimes
Always call your shots
Lampshading
This must be the first time I've seen Sean completely stunned and flabbergasted.
First reply 🥱
2nd time for me, first was when Bobby Lee audibly shart himself on the show
Also the first Jay Pharoah episode when he is completely unfaised and Sean is dying
Also when Eric Andre broke the plate over his head
@@shivangswain fake.
Conan is a legend. One of the best talk show host and comedian there ever was. A loyal, humble, good, irish, immature, childlike, goes into character whenever he doesn't want to face reality, people's person. God bless him.
Conan brought his doctor 😂
“He’s not the best, but he’s affordable”
Later on: "He's very expensive" 😅
Dr Vinny Boom Batz
@bujuir0quai He said very inexpensive lol
He went to medical school out of state
He made some unwise investments over the years
Conan: "I'm not scared of your wings."
Also Conan: "I brought my doctor."
the doctor thing was clearly a bit 😆
Oh, you don't say?!
That's just smart planning.
That guy is one of his writers. Though you do wonder why he brought a writer to an interview.
@@Roflcakes88 lol
I think this is it. This is the best we're gonna get from this show. Conan took it to the highest possible peak. He broke the game.
Conan was amazing, but you gotta give credit to Steve-O for chugging a bottle of hot sauce and then pouring some in his eyes. Sean looked genuinely scared haha
Best episode ever
The dude ate hot sauce and ridiculed sean for doing this coz it was too easy. Nobody will ever top this.
How does anyone or anything ever live up to this? I say this sincerely with no exaggeration, this is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen on RUclips. Conan still finding ways to make me cry laughing all these years later.
I agree. The last few episodes I watched convinced me it was time to move on with this concept and I still do. Just glad to have this episode which could likely be the last. Sean seemed bored this season.
What’s wrong with me why can’t I feel? 😂
Conan is truly a multigenerational talent. In 50 years from now we will still be coming back to his work. Yet somehow I still feel as if he is underrated & undervalued, but the real ones know Conan is the GOAT
"Can you get my pulse?"
"...yeah. It's there."
That was my favorite. Straight 3 Stooges
When the doctor choked him 😭😭💀
That made me howl 😂
I can't eat spice to level 5 here without spewing sweat and liquids from every opening and pore. conan was talking clearly and not crying. How?
“Are you really a doctor?”
“I should be “
Conan decided his bit was going to be acting like he wasn't bothered, and he committed to it 1000%. Amazing
You don't call it a "bit" you hear!
Those Irish lips were chapped by wing 3 lol
the thumbnail shows it too
This is not a bit! This is life!!!!! 😂😂😂
Oh, it's a bit. Conan is answering all the questions in a serious while dedicating himself to seeming unbothered by the wings while dying physically. It's food absurdism. @@CaptainPanick
This is the most unhinged episode I've ever seen. Conan is the GOAT
I thought the last one with Steve-o was unhinged.... this one is tied with that for sure.
He handled that last sauce like a champ!!!
Have u seen the Gordon Ramsey episode lolll?
Eric andre.
He was unhindged but i still get this sense of professionalism from him.
I saw the Hot Ones rankings and had to watch this one. No one will ever top Conan on Hot Wings. If this era feels cursed otherwise, we have truly been blessed here 🙏🏻
Literally. Heard it hyped up and was like okay I guess I’ll watch. Best decision I’ve ever made
is everyone being ironic when posting these comments about this episode? I am honestly wondering
“Where did you go to medical school?”
“Uhh, in 1998.”
😂
Also been his Dr for 25 years..😂😂
He is not the best Dr. but he is affordable.
"You're just choking me!" -
- "So sorry!"
"No, just feel for the pulse!"
- "Alright... It's there."
"Was it a four year school?"
"It was supposed to be."
Dr. Arroyo to open next season or we riot.
Best lie on resumé joke for this era
"That's not what showbusiness is about. Showbusiness is about putting on the greatest show in the world" is honestly an incredible quote. Especially given by a man who is dousing himself in hot sauce whilse saying it, just to entertain people.
He came prepared with the words of wisdom and the physical comedy
This passes as a show? Dude was cringe af.
@@FriedSheep69 You are allowed to enjoy things, you know.
@@henrysmith9725 true
He probably went to bed with an IV bag of Pepto, while whispering "worth it..."
That was the most unhinged episode ever. I was covered in tears by the end. Conan is beyond a shadow of a doubt the GOAT.
forreal, i was binging hot ones, but now im gonna rewatch the archer episode with connan
he is i love lettermen, carson, but hes the bestl diff flavors
Same here! I was laughing uncontrollably!
Idk how many times I’ve watched this since it’s been out😂 my favorite episode
Y'all throw around the word GOAT so much it no longer has the impact y'all think it does.
22:43 The way Conan stopped moving so he could process the mistake he just made is making me cackle 😂😂😂
“Are you a doctor?”
“I should be…”
Historic
I died at this delivery lolololol
😅😅
This is the first time I've seen Sean speechless and lose control of the show.
So cute to hear him dying laughing!
He did not lose control, he was a good host letting Conan be Conan.
Agree, Sean could have done a little more to contrubute to the tone
@@negydimenziosember People saying Conan took over the show and trying to pretend Sean was somehow overwhelmed and didn't contribute have no clue what they are talking about. A bad host would try to fight with the guest and one-up them, trying to keep control over the tone and pace of the show and prioritizing that over putting on a funny show.
Knowing when the guest is on a roll and stepping back to let them keep momentum is a sign of an experience confident host, and Sean did a fantastic job of it here.
He didn't lose control, he gave control to Conan.
A lot of guests compliment Sean on his interviewing, but I feel like Conan's compliment was the most sincere/genuine I've seen. He really wanted Sean to feel good with that one.
He even told him to not take it comedically
Most sincere and most relevant. That coming from a seasoned talk show veteran.
he did for Sean what Dave did for him
I was cringing watching him drink it. Love that crazy Conan😂
Conan is the most qualified person to give compliments on being a good interviewer.
Conan O'brian telling you "you're a good interviewer" and telling you "you ask good questions " must feel amazing
Death smiled at Conan and Conan smiled back.
*Conan string danced back.
Nice
Nah he laughed
Death smiled at Conan and Conan licked its wings.
Conan absolutely roasting HBOs rebranding at the end of this chaos has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
I’m three minutes in and he’s already started it and I’m loving it
Technically, HBO and HBO MAX are not the same thing 🤓☝️
he's saying what we're all thinking.
Conan always roasted his networks, so it's very on brand lol
@@misterchris3491 Which is dumb because it's all owned by the same company and splitting it up like that just loses all your brand recognition. I understand their thought process might be "HBO is the prestige brand" but in doing that their shooting whatever success Max might have in the foot.
His pain receptors were overidden by his need to entertain; he suffered for our amusement. Thank you Conan!
Rarely do i leave comments, but this is my absolute favorite episode! Conan has always been hilarious in my eyes, and this solidifies his comedic genius.
Conan just made a very solid argument for the GOAT guest for the show.
Just?
He was already the goat host. Dude shines wherever he goes.
he's definitely the goat host. sorry, sean.
@@yagesh287Absolutely. This was gold. Hopefully that guy named Steve-O took some notes.
Yesth...
“Dr. Arroyo can we get a baseline pulse”
“It’s there…”💀
“You’re not a doctor are you?” “I should be” 😂😂😂😂
Conan is truly a legend. He is in control and doing his best to make a great show even when he was in a huge deal of pains…
Conan said sweet things, but...
Him FULLY committing to this show with all the energy and passion he could muster is the highest praise he could have given Sean.
It's the ultimate sign of respect in improv comedy.
Dave Letterman used to do this for Conan in the 90s with appearances and bits to help him take off. He’s just been returning the favor for 30 years.
You nailed it! Fully committed to entertaining! Conan is an elite entertainer
He not only committed to delivering a good episode, he committed to 48 hours of recovery from that spice-drinking bit
I lost it when the camera randomly focused on the spilled hot sauce bottles while Conan was on his manic episode
This was my favorite part
That DaBomb was spilling the whole time😂
479 agree
I wish I could say I'm surprised, but Conan putting in the most chaotic and ballsy performance with those sauces, is actually totally on brand
"Call the wife!" I lost it at that point.
Yup. This is very much on brand! Lol!
Yep-Conan's performance when interviewed for 'In The Actor's Studio' was VERY similar-but with WATER, strangely. He just kept drinking jug after jug of it. The man is an ox!
It's hilarious comparing this absolutely chaotic interview to the calm, collected, and intelligent one he did on his wife's podcast. Dude is so ridiculously dynamic.
I can just hear Sona laughing in the background loving every minute that he's torturing himself for this perfect iconic moment because she knows he wouldn't have it any other way. 😂
This is the best interview ever. Conan was Conan when he needed to be but gave us insightful serious answers to Sean’s questions that left me feeling like I know him on a more personal level. He’s a really interesting dude. I especially liked this moment 7:27 when he gave Sean his props. Sean was moved, you could tell.
Calling Jay Leno “the other guy” still is why I love Conan. Holds a grudge while taking the high road 😂
@SteveAustin-pm2jn No they didn't
Boston irish. Grudges are our thing
@@redsawxnationsouth When did you move to the US?
@@TravelingStacker pretty sureh e's an Irish American
I still remember his monolog on that last show about not giving up.
"I hate cynicism - it’s my least favorite quality and it doesn’t lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you’re kind, amazing things will happen. As proof, let’s make an amazing thing happen right now." - Conan
“What’s wrong with me!? WHY CANT I FEEL!?” That killed me!! 🤣🤣🤣
Underrated comment
I felt that
Definitely my favorite moment!!!
F
@SteveAustin-pm2jn my parents said about you that you need to find original material instead of begging for handouts
I love how you can see the heat hitting him, but he channels evey ounce of whatever spicy pain is there into sheer manic energy to power through it.
I’m soooooooo in love with all of the Conan love in the comments. How he still doesn’t have his talk show is beyond me, I will never get over his comparison to ANY big talk show these days, they will never compare to how phenomenal Conan is.
Conan- " You're not a Doctor are you?"
Dr. Arroyo-" I should be"
😂
My second time watching this interview, and realizing that Conan really did something clever here. He spent the whole interview telling us how to be a good showman WHILE showing us exactly what he meant in the way he kept entertaining
I wonder if he had this all planned out
so true
maybe it’s like practicing what you preach!
He even set up the HBO max joke and pretended it was him ranting. He knew exactly what he was doing
He is a maestro talkshow host. I believe he did plan this out, and then everything is all improv which are all sweet bonus toppings.
And that end monologue about finding funny everywhere was genius!
His sheer disdain for the Max rebrand is wonderful
I was crying I was laughing so hard at the end 😂😂
I was the 1000th like just now, and had to leave a comment to say, "Nice comment!" 👍🏼 to you.
it's fantastic to see an insider some real pull saying what we're all thinking, loved the ending
There is no one in comedy or tv like Conan. His unique self deprecation style with his commitment to the bit is unmatched by anyone.
I love that the purpose of this show was to throw interviewees just a bit off-kilter, and finally it was Sean's turn to be thrown entirely off his interview game.
@SteveAustin-pm2jn nah, work and pay it yourself, you can do it
That is precisely what made his behavior so disrespectful. It was unwatchable.
@@porterlockwood2032 Sean seemed to be having a great time. Maybe get over yourself
@@porterlockwood2032Seriously?? You need to chug some hot sauce to jump start your sense of humor!
@@porterlockwood2032 Are you for real?
He brought his own freaking skit. Truly show how special this man is as comedian and entertainer
“What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I feel?” 😂😂😂😂
Best line in the whole thing! 🤣🤣
Same Conan... same 😂😂😂
oh wait
