I sat in front of Steven Wright at a Paul McCartney concert at Fenway Park several years ago and after every song he said in that classic tone, "I wonder what he's gonna play next?" It was hilarious.
The transition to talking about how Boston became over commercialized and the ad in the middle of this clip for T-mobile was brilliant. A great joke for those that are looking. 😂
Keep telling yourself that
@@ArcadiaBlvdd You B@stard! 😁
@@ArcadiaBlvdd an unintentional irony perhaps.
I think I found my new guilty pleasure.
Watching Steven Wright interviews. His joy of getting ribbed is infectious. A deep belly laugh every time someone catches him off guard.
Watch him and Craigy Ferg together. @jaylenofly has a compilation that'll make your heart soar.
@@shantayedincsoy1611 I came here to say the same thing, but you had beaten me to it!
@@shantayedincsoy1611 Oooh, thanks! I'll definitely check that out!
Nothing guilty about it. He's a gem.
@@JohnnyCosmehow did it go? :D
“ I don’t need blinds “ common response , philosophical, comedic , just rolls out - awesome
I love Steven's comparison to crossing a lake of thin ice with the performing in front of an audience.
Thin Ice. Thin Broth. Thin Nasal Passages. Thin Hair. ThinKing.
@@calebclunie4001 Boooooo

“The trick is…. Some of them aren’t very good.” 😂😂😂😂
This whole interview is just exceptional. Listening to Steven talk about his career and just have a good laugh with Conan is awesome. Steven really is a comedy legend.
I love getting a glimpse of comedians and their craft! Legends
Think I could listen to Steven laugh all day. He's one of my favorites. Great interview, wish it was longer
I like how Steven Wright takes a sip of water and places it down right next to the coaster.
Conan's cartooning would be something to see. I was an artist for 40 years and I would like to see some of those cartoons.
He drew the old Late Night cartoon logo/picture of himself. I imagine they looked something similar to that but with oddball characters and crazy stories. Yeah they'd be fun to read.
@@chadwickerman I believe you bc I've seen an episode were he draws that exact cartoon of himself on the spot, I don't remember which episode it was though.
ב''ה, Conan or Mike Pence cartoon quiz
Thank you for putting these videos out there….watching Conan cracking up Steven is priceless!! Made my week.
I feel very similar. I've been a game dev for 20+ years. It's the stupidest job you can have, but I'm very happy to have found it.
How is developing something that gives people joy stupid? It's a pretty cool job if you ask me and you should be proud of what you've done
@@zzzzzz3708 I think stupid in the sense that developing a game is oftentimes frustrating and the revenue might not be worth the effort but he's still doing it because it's his passion.
I mean when you compare it to careers that actually help people or the world.
@@Cursethedawn video games prevent suicides for some, it’s not a stupid job
@@Cursethedawn I dunno man. Don't game as often as I'd like but they can be a great source of joy & escapism. Even better: bonding with my son over them.
Steven is so cool. Love his comedy.
Steven Wright is the best. I didn’t know a new book was releasing but I pre ordered it now.
I'm the same generation, born and raised in Boston, and everything they're saying about Beantown is spot on. No more Combat Zone, Bug City, the Rat, etcetera. Boston is still great, but I like it better the way it was. Oh, well....
I love Steven. Used to see him a lot on Conans show in the 90s.
I would listen to a podcast of Steven Wright reading phonebooks and grocery lists.
Cities in the US were still reeling from urban renewal. The suburbs were exploding. Brookline, where Conan is from, has generally been a pool of wealth along with the chain of MetroWest communities that became home to tech office parks and such.
Our cities died and grew from the ashes as with other trends in America.
Boston was once considered the armpit of the Northeast...
It has since been upgraded to "Crotch".
Great interview with one of the best comedic minds , love seeing Steven W laugh.
I wish Steven could have talked more about old Boston.
And get Louis C.K. in the conversation too.
@@kewkabe That'd be gold.
Having grown up in Boston at the same time they're talking about, I can agree 100%.
Skip the advertising that starts at 3:57 and goes to 5:30......!!!
2:12 ..... and every other part of the world outside LA and NYC
3:27: Not just Boston. That’s most American large cities.
"The trick is some of them arnt very good..." man, that is the whole truth for any kind of artist. Even if your goal isnt volume, especially early on you are going to make alot of crap. The only real goal as an artist has to be to reduce the ratio of crap to gold to the point to where its almost all gold. But the crap is still going to be in the mix because thats just the nature of creating things.
Yes. Crap. I Agree, Whole *crap* heartedly.
thanks for the T-Mobile seminar
I love Wright because he's a comic who tells jokes. I feel that many modern comedians sadly don't do a lot of jokes. I like funny stories but sometimes I just want to hear a barrage of weird jokes and puns.
'There's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.'
My mom went to school in Boston in the 60's (grew up in Barre VT) and loved it. She always said it was a safe city for women while the Angiulos we running it
Can we talk about the evolution of Conan's hair??? 😂
Transplant?
@@AHighlander nope! Just crazy as it's always been! I wonder if he just let's it do whatever 😆
Conan and Steve are right about Boston being the epitome of a "No Showbiz" town, back then. Not because there weren't talented people, but because there was the Black Hole of NYC that sucked in all of the talent and all of the light and everywhere else except L.A. was a desert of opportunity.
That has changed now of course because anyone with a smart phone and the internet has a TV studio in their hands.
when i look at Ralph clips on the Simpsons, it really feels like he was entirely a Conan invention.
Who is this old sea captain?
Conan O'Brien. Its his show!
At 5:30 the clip resumes. I hate ads in the a middle of a video!
I like this guy man ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The ending is so profound
I can’t avoid but to notice conan looks like palpatine 😅
deeply in love with this man
Back in Boston in the 70's, where you might find Tom Rush performing in the street, or the other busking people trying to earn a living. I know one, Stephen Hollis, who later came to North Beach and never left. Multi-talented, with no money, created an 8 episode talk show that began on a rooftop and then got into local public TV here in San Francisco. The Eddie Show, which many of the episodes are now on RUclips. Eddie the host never had anything work out right. They also did remotes, and his co-host Fred, was a pyromaniac. Very nutty fun, and worth seeking out.
how do i _watch_ the whole interview? do they not post full video versions of the episodes?
The idea that they grew up in Boston and thought the entertainment industry was so far away when they were were a short train ride away from NYC bothers me, as someone who grew up in rural Kansas, where I have to drive three hours just to get to the nearest airport
You are a horses ass if you think a lower middle class 14 year old in Boston could afford to just hop on a train, plane or automobile and catch some Broadway show or something. You might as well have been in Montana. FFS
Different world then man.
It's far enough away (4 or 5 hours, maybe more back then) that you could not realistically commute. You'd need to stay over. Logistically it's just not worth it. You don't just go to NYC for the day and live in Boston like it ain't no thang. You'd get off the train and then have to get right back on. Granted it's not rural Kansas but for most working class people it almost may as well be.
I'm hopelessly in love with Stacey Richter -- when are you going to have her on the show? --are ya scared??
I miss your show
The old combat zone
Where can I see the full episodes with video?
Ate you going to have Ryan Reynolds on to talk about Mint Mobile & T-Mobile?
Even in the 80's, Central Square was run down and grey. Burger King was its prime retail tenant. Now it's like Disneyworld.
Barry Katz!
Does anyone else notice how steven wright's mouth barely moves when he talks?
I have no flipping clue what "panquatidians" are, Conan, and neither does Google. 😂
I’ve been in Boston since the 80’s and I’m guessing Conan may be mixing up his references. He talks about “Le Pain Quotidien” which is an upscale bakery-cafe chain from Europe that you can find in NYC and LA but NOT in Boston, afaik. Another French-sounding chain that did indeed start in Boston and took off in the 80’s was Au Bon Pain. It was the fancier alternative here to Dunkin’ Donuts for a morning coffee and pastry.
wikibear. Bring back wikibear!!
And we're all glad you tried
Is Steven Wright Robin Williams slowed down, or is Robin Williams Steven Wright speeded up?
When I saw this channel name Team Coco I clicked this video thinking this would be about all the Coco Chanel perfumes. But, these two guys seem to be fixated on other things other than perfume. This is not the Chanel I thought it would be.
i would pay for a full video podcast. would that make you guys happy because im prepared to pay up. so sick of these short videos

I have to fast forward past the advertising !!! To save others, I will post the times your ads run.
Why is Petter Schjerven on Conan?
Isn't TMobile notorious for bad service?
No, just for interrupting at the worst times...
Ok. These ads are insane. Makes this unwatchable.
Here's George Meyer talking about his time on Letterman: ruclips.net/video/l33e7MYAe_8/видео.html
Any Coffee & Cigarettes fans in here?
That movie should be called "Director Disappears Up His Own Ass"
Conan didn't let Steven talk much.
People in Boston still not all that nice. Grew up and lived across the country and STILL, I was absolutely shocked at how racist Boston is living there... I still ask people that moved from there and it's basically still that way... It's the culture. It's somehow the north and accepted so not seen as a big deal at all... Crazy...
Ah the good ole days of Boston when it was cold snowy and racist!!
Anyone on thus business is privileged impresses Conan
Conan:Why did you have him on and then not let him talk?
I was thinking the same thing. Too much me, me, me and then little doses of Steven. Bill Maher does then same thing on his channel and it drives me nuts. You would think they'd have a little more self awareness considering they've been interviewing people for years.
That's the script with every guest.
Only Kevin Nealon holds his own...somewhat.
You like all the Gs? Is that your point?!
You seriously need to fold in TMobile ad's to make money? YOU? meh......
Feed the red dragon. 🤢
Conan should reduce the height of his chair. It looks like he is sitting on a heightening pillow. His belt line looks above his arm rest but Steve's arm rest looks like it is into his rib cage.
Conan should have his chair how ever HE wants it
Conan’s gaining a bit of weight… that’s unlike him.
Santos fabricated so many lies - Colbert
While I am fully prepared to believe that Colbert was one of the lies he fabricated, I will need some proof of your claims, sir.
Was he wrong?
Donnie has the right to Remain SILENT
Shocking how incredibly boring this is.
"Some aren't so good" The one and only time I saw Conan "live" was a horrible show.
Care to give more details?
@@DanJackson1977 Conan was wearing heavily stained dress pants *when he came out into the audience it was easy to see...he had an older fading away actress on and she was very unappealing....the jokes were lame and the whole show lacked spark.
The man the legend!
By the logic of the comedy, Sonia deserves 1k per podcast. Consult your local esquire.
Nice of Conan to finally let Steven start talking after 4 1/2 minutes of him rambling. Cripes.
conan kinda looks like a rotting melon
more steven. consomme is a time-refined thing if you ask a chinese
