Not just the language he uses either, but how quick and perceptive he is. 'Impish giant' is such a great oxymoron that perfectly describes Conan, and he just tosses it out there
"Dear Conan, my sweet gentle lover, my strawberry strewn wonder man, you impish giant, you great languid creature, you living sparkling Emerald River" i can't-
Conan always plays the goofball but he's incredibly intelligent and keeps up with Russell the entire time. Just when you think Russell is going to leave Conan speechless he fires back with a joke that completely disarms Russell. These two are a perfectly even match
Agreed. I don't know why exactly so many still cling to the idea that TV is the ultimate media destination, but it probably has to do with the fact that it's been an institution so monumental that the vast majority of the public practically shaped their lives around it for 60+ years. I imagine that once our two oldest generations are gone, the shift to this kind of thing will be complete and TV, at least the way we know it now, will be a niche thing. Kinda like what happened to newspapers.
Agreed, the relaxing format is refreshing. Sometimes you feel sorry for the guest and the host because the guest doesn't really want to be there, which must be painful for the host trying to do the job but understanding the guest is being forced to schill for a producer.
This really only works with people as clever and charming as Russell. Plenty of people need to be prepped for a 5min TV interview to say anything interesting or funny.
I think he's just better than the average person at articulating things; which I would say is separate from being perceptive. I reckon the vast majority of people aware of Conan have the same thoughts they would just struggle to articulate it.
Lmao did he just call conan's hair and "Auburn edifice"? Brand's impeovised metaphors are so impressive. His speech is so effortlessly poetic, I would love to try on his brain for a day.
John Tayor “edifice” means a large or imposing structure. Auburn is a variant of orange. So he was calling Conans hair a large, obstructive, and orange object.
The fact that he IS English and that he knows words longer than 4 letters might be surprising to Americans... LOL But I concur, he has a well educated vocabulary!
Geek Girl while I agree, for the most part, I would be remiss not to mention Tracy Morgan. If you haven’t seen their quarantine interview, watch. One of the only times Conan ever loses control of an interview is with him. Every single time.
It's like just two intelligent, comedic minds, just having another ordinary day of "how are you". Can't be any more genuine and wholesome, but also entertaining.
I didn't realized how much I missed the hilarious facet of Russell until I saw this interview with Conan, even though I love the new conscious and more grounded Russell and all the work he is doing now there is something magical about humor that just delivers the message right to the heart without having to intellectualize so much. Both Conan and Russell are examples of what happens when the brain and the heart are connected creating a profound sense of empathy with the one they have in front of them. When two people with this rare ability get together they can really bring the best out of each-other.
Conan's a Harvard graduate and, even more impressive, Russell's an autodidact. Conan doesn't show off his education as much, but Russell has certainly earned the right to display the product of his own hard work. They're both splendid communicators!
@@DrDespicable Both of them, indubitably, have phenomenal semantics as Conan picks up where Russel leaves. But it's completely ludicrous to say that possessing a Harward degree vis a vis to a man unleashing a deluge of le mot juste in every sentence is more impressive. Both of them are well-versed in the lexicon, but having a Harvard degree doesn't automatically make you more impressive when compared to a Russel Brand.
@@malamute4793 he reads constantly. This is a man whose thesis was titled "Literary Progeria in the Works of Flannery O'Connor and William Faulkner". He studied history and literature, and I would think you'd have to read a few books in order to do that and graduate as valedictorian from Harvard. Maybe you've read more books, but Conan has read at least some.
I love everything about this interview. They both have such good chemistry together, and joking about being sensual together was not only balsy, it was hilarious and felt genuine.
I feel the exact opposite, I understand his overly "verbose" and "ostentatious" manner of speaking, look many of us are college educated and taken honor level English it's not that difficult. He just irritates me how pretentious he is, he just tries SOOOO hard to force as many words and unnecessary metaphors, but I take it more as insecurity, he so badly needs to showcase like "look at me, I can name drop all these things!" Pfft.. look, I listen to a lot of seminars and podcasts of intelligent people like Hichens, Jordan Peterson, Sam Harris, etc. who are all scholars, but they dont feel like they're just creating some vocab soup to showcase their vocab the way Brand does.
Looking at the thumbnail i seriously thought Conan was interviewing a Sheikh of some sort. With that said, I have never liked Russell Brand but this was hilarious and i have now realized that i obviously haven't really ever given him a chance. Truly one of my favorite Conan interviews.
At 4:30, "Simply acquire yourself a blanket and wait for time to pass..." ~ I love Russell Brand's micro-expressions and he even tries to cover up his smile to try and hide it. - Love it!
@@marias7599 lol I like Russell but I don't think all of the spiritual/political mumbo jumbo is particularly healthy. Healthier than drugs and sex though.
I still like the old version though, anybody up to see this old fool cover bangers b & m with a ridiculous hair piece? Come on, might even crack a smile.
I could’ve watched this interview for 4 more hours. One of Conans best and one of the best from all the hosts during the quarantine. They need to do each other’s podcast immediately.
Conan is the best interviewer out there. Punching in comic observations while allowing Russell to speak effusively. Conan is still doing the best job out there. Other talk show hosts, seem self-involve and self-congratulatory. He is on top of his game with the podcast, show and at home series.
"We're beautifully coccooned, hostages of misfortune". That's how I'm going to describe myself when I wake up in the morning from now on, it's certainly going to make me feel better about my unemployed self.
Listening to these two talk is utter joy! I enjoy both their humor and their vocabularies. Their intelligence and wit are evenly matched and I could endlessly watch them flow with each other.😍
Glad Russel made the right choice to having his own family. He finally has the life he deserves, which is a great life, one with kids, a great family, a loving wife what more can a guy want. Stay safe, stay blessed everyone!
end of 2020 and I'm back here watching this interview. I miss the 'at home' vibe of early 2020 tv, and I think I will miss it forever. Because of talk show hosts having to be less polished due to lack of equipment I found myself seeking them out as opposed to just stumbling upon them I found it much more wholesome and honest. rip
100% agreed. They both have such quick-witted creative minds, but Russell's adeptness at off-the-cuff sermons are amazing, brilliant, and hilarious. It certainly makes them kindred souls, since Conan's improv tangents have always endeared him to me.
Conan talking to Russel is pretty incredible - two intellectual equals who respect and understand each other. You wouldn't see this anywhere else because it could only exist with these equally incredible people.
This was amazing, hysterical! WAY TO GO CONAN for having an “at home show” that is actually funny and entertaining!!! Also, Russell Brand looks unrecognizable in the best way possible! He’s glowing!!
I am finding I really prefer zoom interviews over the traditional talk show format. I doubt that I would like it as well, however, if it were interrupted by all the traditional flotsam enmeshed in the traditional format. Of course, that method requires a lot of advertising sponsorship in order to pay for air time. I know I prefer to pay the streaming services which give me an option to watch sans ads. Great interview, Conan. Love Russell Brand! and your good-hearted, but at times seriously philosophical, repartee. His Luminary podcast is great.
Because it's more spontaneous and natural. Of course I'm sure broadcasting from home is much more comfy than in a studio setting. I hope this stays really I do. But alas I fear the money changers will want people back in the studio asap. More advertising $$$. Bear is so cute!
This was very funny. Both Conan and Russel are very natural and similar in many ways, yet different in others. If Conan wanted to travel somewhere sometime he should take Russel, they would make a great duo.
These two are an absolute delight and have brilliant chemistry. Russell and Conan always had a soft spot for each other and even though Brand left the limelight (voluntarily) he still gets a kick out of Conan and will do his show. I can't wait for Conan to do Under the Skin, it will be amazing for sure.
"Remember, you're on american television, you'll have to DUMB IT DOWN" hahahahahaha But seriously: one of the most insightful, smart, funny interviews ever. This guy is an intelellectual nuclear bomb, and Conans sincerity and heart make all feel effortless and genuine. Thank you!
i LOVE them together, especially in a comfortable, relaxed home setting. They're both such genuine people with great senses of humor and great intelligence. Can we please get a weekly show with them?????????????
Hands down the best ConanAtHome Interview so far! Love how their comedic styles complement each other and the level of great spontaneous humor they bring.
out of all talk show host that done an interview with Russell, none match his energy and intelligence but Conan O'Brien. That same level of insane wisdom covered by what other people may have called obscene language is always so refreshing to watch. Some may tried to get straight or direct dialogue from him, but when Russell talks serious matter, ordinary mind can't comprehend nor even grasp the essence of what he's talking about. Conan on the other hand shared that wits and comics so he is able to do great conversation with him in between laughter.
I haven't laughed this hard in the longest time! Thank you for this gift. What's even better is, underneath it all, both men are truly warm-hearted, compassion people.
A very entertaining chat between two great minds. Russell Brand touched on the more profound and there is no one more profound and insightful than the great Charles Eisenstein who was on Russell’s Luminary podcast again recently.
I absolutely love this. Russell brand used to really irk me in his persona of hell raiser but over the years he's mellowed and shows his true intellect and insightfulness which has made me love him. I'm pretty new to Conan, we don't get him on the UK worse luck. But love him too. The two together is amazing
Conan's true virtuosity at conversation on display here. Keeping the video chit chat rolling and fun and never dropping the ball even with a character like Brand is astounding.
@@adityapandey7798 I think what you're referring to is the spinning wheel. The Jenny is a multi-spindle, multi-spool spinning frame. The origin of the spinning wheel is contested but the best evidence available is that it was invented in Iraq. The British exploited and enslaved many nationalities, that much is true.
Wow Just yesterday I was watching all Russelle’s Brand appearances on Conan! And now..!!!!! This Google prediction of your browsing behaviour is finally paying off !!!!
The chemistry between these two is palpable. Brilliant interview.
To be honest, Russell has good chemistry with everyone!
@@alexandertsiolkovski5848Well put. I would not want to meet the person that Russell couldn't ingratiate himself to.
@@robf6105 lol, look up "Russell Brand MSNBC". It's a great example of what happens when Russell and the Host(s) do not compliment each others style.
Absolutely one of the best interactions ever. Brand is so verbose and articulate and Conan's intelligent absurdist nature match perfectly.
Jamie Evans really is, I love their interviews together
I'm an English major, and Russell's vocabulary and use of language astounds me
Not just the language he uses either, but how quick and perceptive he is. 'Impish giant' is such a great oxymoron that perfectly describes Conan, and he just tosses it out there

Widget the World Watcher True, I think all good comedians are highly intelligent.
Conan is a Harvard grad. :)
I am impressed by Russell, as usual, but know less about his background.
These are two very intelligent men with imagination and silliness... they are a good combo
You can tell Conan loves talking with Russell because they connect on an incredibly quick-witted, intellectual level.
this is a much better format than live television. the cheers and laughters distract from the content itself
Agreed. I don't know why exactly so many still cling to the idea that TV is the ultimate media destination, but it probably has to do with the fact that it's been an institution so monumental that the vast majority of the public practically shaped their lives around it for 60+ years. I imagine that once our two oldest generations are gone, the shift to this kind of thing will be complete and TV, at least the way we know it now, will be a niche thing. Kinda like what happened to newspapers.
QualeQualeson I think it’s very close to already being there.
@R4- P17 Exactly!! No ads makes it so much better!
Agreed, the relaxing format is refreshing. Sometimes you feel sorry for the guest and the host because the guest doesn't really want to be there, which must be painful for the host trying to do the job but understanding the guest is being forced to schill for a producer.
It’s becoming clear which hosts are actually funny or not without an audience to laugh at everything
This interview had a strong flavor of old friendship.
Well put!
Because they're genuine pals. The amount of times Rus has been in the show and even been on the podcast a couple times
Conan -please, PLEASE don't return to rehearsed interviews after the coronavirus!!! This is gold :)
they are still pre-interviewewd
This really only works with people as clever and charming as Russell. Plenty of people need to be prepped for a 5min TV interview to say anything interesting or funny.
heftyyjelly it’s only gold because the guest is as funny and smart as the host. Most celebs couldn’t pull off this sort of interview.
It would be a train reck, not everyone is going to flow like this or keep it normal and sane
Conan says: "No-one has talked in that way for sixty years, Russel."
Russel thinks: "Blast! My vernacular is becoming entirely too modern!"
Despite the comedic intention, Russell's analysis of Conan is really accurate. He's a really perceptive guy.
ConspiracyJuice Some of it may have have been projection, one might suppose?
@ConspiracyJuice that too deep coming from someone named juice😁😂
I think he's just better than the average person at articulating things; which I would say is separate from being perceptive. I reckon the vast majority of people aware of Conan have the same thoughts they would just struggle to articulate it.
It feels like he was talking about himself, which ofc doesn't mean it's not true about conan
Aa genius
Lmao did he just call conan's hair and "Auburn edifice"? Brand's impeovised metaphors are so impressive. His speech is so effortlessly poetic, I would love to try on his brain for a day.
He definitely has one of the most interesting minds of anyone I know of today. And what a transformation he went through.
yes officer, this person right here
Whats an auburn edifice?
John Tayor “edifice” means a large or imposing structure. Auburn is a variant of orange. So he was calling Conans hair a large, obstructive, and orange object.
that was the one that grabbed me too. what a mind.
Russell is the CEO of english vocabulary
No that's Guthrie Govan

I almost fell down laughing when he said that. Hahahaha!!
MONO-- Doh!
Lol that is my favorite one he wrote!
“Mind you, the conjugation itself would be absolutely repulsive” 😂😂😂😂
out of all talk show host that done an interview with Russell, none match his energy and intelligence but Conan O'Brien. That same level of insane wisdom covered by what other people may have called obscene language is always so refreshing to watch. Some may tried to get straight or direct dialogue from him, but when Russell talks serious matter, ordinary mind can't comprehend nor even grasp the essence of what he's talking about. Conan on the other hand shared that wits and comics so he is able to do great conversation with him in between laughter.
I cannot remember having ever seen Conan laugh at length so genuinely. Great interview!
I haven't laughed this hard in the longest time! Thank you for this gift. What's even better is, underneath it all, both men are truly warm-hearted, compassion people.
A very entertaining chat between two great minds. Russell Brand touched on the more profound and there is no one more profound and insightful than the great Charles Eisenstein who was on Russell’s Luminary podcast again recently.
It actually is incredible how much of a genius Russell Brand is... Or is he just crazy? Eh. Whatever. I'm Team Russell all day long.
Who can say? There's a fine line between genius and madness.
Aren't all geniuses "crazy?" And aren't all great comics genius?
Russell has beautiful eyes, there's a wonderful soul in there. X
He’s gorgeous, inside and out.
I absolutely love this. Russell brand used to really irk me in his persona of hell raiser but over the years he's mellowed and shows his true intellect and insightfulness which has made me love him.
I'm pretty new to Conan, we don't get him on the UK worse luck. But love him too. The two together is amazing
Conan + Russell together is just guaranteed to be hilarious
Conan's true virtuosity at conversation on display here. Keeping the video chit chat rolling and fun and never dropping the ball even with a character like Brand is astounding.
Russell was flaunting Spinning jenny, an english invention....Conan cleverly turned it towards Airplane, an American invention
I'm sure neither Russell or Conan were motivated by nationalism.
🙄 okay
Lol, they both picked the one invention you would write an essay on in middle school in their respective countries
@@adityapandey7798 I think what you're referring to is the spinning wheel. The Jenny is a multi-spindle, multi-spool spinning frame. The origin of the spinning wheel is contested but the best evidence available is that it was invented in Iraq. The British exploited and enslaved many nationalities, that much is true.
Thoroughly charming and lighthearted. Exactly the non-chemical high we all need. Thank you, Conan.
This was the most delightful and uplifting and nourishing thing I've seen in ages!
Wow Just yesterday I was watching all Russelle’s Brand appearances on Conan! And now..!!!!! This Google prediction of your browsing behaviour is finally paying off !!!!
Don't forget his visits at the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson
