11:34 It got lost in the shuffle but I wanted to point out the brilliance of Gourley saying "It's really your Rosebud" re: Conan being bitter about the toboggan.
I don’t know why I take joy in thinking about Conan’s bulbous headed Casper ghost doing bits in Toronto!😂 “ it’s a ga ga ga ghost! Oh wait? It’s ca ca ca Conan’s ghost doing bits!”😂
I'm not even Jewish, and I can attest that when you're poor, you keep track of prices. Whenever my friends would go to Jack in the Box, I would scrounge up some change to see what I could afford on the dollar menu. 😅
I had a kind of more complicated childhood: we weren't actually poor, but my dad WAS a very poor child so, anyway, I always new how expensive things were because he was super conscious and open regarding the cost of things. On the upper hand, that tough me to not be an ungrateful rascal and being responsible about my finances which as a Millennial it's quite a thing.
My family also had a second-hand 2XL because we didn't have $54.87 for a new one. Almost all of our stuff was second- or third-hand, from flea markets and thrift shops and garage sales and such, so we didn't know any different. And that was one seriously epic toy, too. I'm glad Gary got his shot at playing with it. 🙂
I'm 70, and I live in Ohio and I have always used an electric blanket. They are "the bees knees"! We never had any problem with them. I have one now, and I love it. They still sell them, just about everywhere. I got my latest one at Walmart, a year ago. Holiday house fires often were the result of grease fires in a kitchen, or from candles burning too close to drapery.
“Mall Mascot” - No joke, I want to see this movie. A movie set in Peabody MA in like the late 70s or early eighties about a poor, young Jewish boy who spends a bunch of time at the mall. Sign me up!
Not only did the first version of 2-XL cost between $50 to $60, Each tape was sold separately at a retail price of $7.95 to $9.95 and there was something close to 50 tapes. If your parent's bought everything it would have cost about $450.
My family had one from a garage sale, and thank goodness it came with two tapes. My father paid like $20 for the whole thing. Even that was a LOT for us, but it was for three kids, so like $7 each. Still, it was one of the fanciest things we ever had. We never got any more tapes but we played those two for years and years, so it definitely paid off.
I can relate, I read all my younger brother's DND books, but while i was peripherally aware of groups that played, I wasn't actually friends with any of them. I'm not saying Hell, but purgatory would definitely be just repeating my childhood before high school over and over.
I love how later in the episode they return to the toboggan story and Gary asks: Did toboggan have a name? I wanted to make that joke. Oh and at 11:35 Gourley also comments about this.
Orange Juli-ī (probably doesn't need the hyphen, but more aesthetically pleasing). I remember the one in the food court of the Arsenal Mall, back when it was 'the new mall.' Right next to White Mountain Creamery.
"Yeah, well - we have this Poltergeist O'Brien haunting our comedy club, ... he doesn't care for rest, or... you know... giving our audience some space they need and stuff... he's practically doing bits 24/7..." - I am lmao😂
I remember as a kid playing ff7 on a computer and reading the ad&d dungeon guide. Fairly cool. How do you explain THAC0 to anyone but .01 percent of the population at the time.
"Toronto" sounds SOO WEIRD when someone pronounces the second "T" 😂 It stands out like one of us Canucks saying "about" in the midst of conversation with Americans lmao
Real Jewish poor person problems 😂he was poor because he had to use an electric blanket 😂first off they weren't cheap and if he as a child had one then so did the whole family 😂he has never been poor 😂
As a Canadian the laughable part is Conan wants to go to Toronto, the best view of it is in your rear view mirror. So much better places than that self-absorbed and pretentious shithole
Gary is so underrated, his state abbreviation bit is genius
That's a classic. Where they somehow need a committee with so much back and forth.
Gary Guman is one of my favorite comedians. I recently had the pleasure of seeing him live in Dallas.
This might've been the best episode yet, Gary just seems so wholesome and lovely and right on Conan's wavelength
11:34 It got lost in the shuffle but I wanted to point out the brilliance of Gourley saying "It's really your Rosebud" re: Conan being bitter about the toboggan.
Torontonian here. We would all lineup to see Conan’s bit in the Afterlife. It all makes sense.
Yay we get double Conan on this jolly day
Otherwise known as a dry dream.
It's a Christmas miracle!!
I love Gary Gulman. And he looks amazing here.
I love Gary so much. The Great Depresh pretty much got me through the pandemic
Gourley's Rosebud comment went under the radar.
"Santa is busy at the microbiology lab and has a short fuse..." 😆🤣
I’m in Toronto (close to) on Christmas evening listening everybody talk about Toronto! What a day!
Conan and Gary share an exact sense of humor 😂❤
Two of my favorite comedians, this makes me so happy
All jokes aside, I will actually pay to see Rush and Conan do a show together.
I don’t know why I take joy in thinking about Conan’s bulbous headed Casper ghost doing bits in Toronto!😂
“ it’s a ga ga ga ghost! Oh wait?
It’s ca ca ca Conan’s ghost doing bits!”😂
Gary gives hot history teacher energy
Gary Gulman is a hunk. Can’t believe people don’t talk about this more.
Good eye for talent Conan! Gul man rocks!
I can confirm on behalf of everyone in the Greater Toronto Area that we'd love to see Conan's spooky ghost haunting our grounds.

I literally have a restaurant budget I keep track of.

2XL was one of my favorite toys as a kid so I totally understood Gary's fascination...they were so neat for the time!
One of the best gifts I've ever received, even if I don't think I asked for 🤔
I had one. Very cool toy that many people have no idea about.
“Mall Mascot” - No joke, I want to see this movie. A movie set in Peabody MA in like the late 70s or early eighties about a poor, young Jewish boy who spends a bunch of time at the mall. Sign me up!
The bringin question on everyone's mind: Burlington Mall or Liberty Tree Mall?
I love the intro behavior seeping into the conversation at the start of this clip
Love you, Gary Guman.👍😊
great guy, he seemed at times to be looking at and talking to the camera. He looks great!

I didn’t know he’d been through all that. Comedians can be some of the saddest people for some reason. Glad he got help.
Gary Gulman! He’s fantastic! I can’t wait to hear what he thinks about being Conan’s friend!
This is a great Christmas gift to enjoy. 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Wow Citizen Conan's literal Rosebud.
"You get everything with Dungeons & Dragons but friends ".... hilarious
I can relate, I read all my younger brother's DND books, but while i was peripherally aware of groups that played, I wasn't actually friends with any of them. I'm not saying Hell, but purgatory would definitely be just repeating my childhood before high school over and over.
watching Gary's show now. It's on Max.
I just love that Conan's still bitter about that toboggan at 60 because that will be me
Gary is a sweetie pie.
I'd be Conan's 'Yes Man' if he were a Ghost!!! 🤣👍💖
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
My mom also worked in malls, so I relate to his experience of having to wander around for hours because there was no babysitter.
I love conan so much!😂💖
I love how later in the episode they return to the toboggan story and Gary asks: Did toboggan have a name? I wanted to make that joke.
Oh and at 11:35 Gourley also comments about this.
Merry Christmas everyone ❤💚❤️💚❤️
Im trying to comment on the hilarity of plural orange julius... But I can't figure out how to spell it. 😆
Juileyes 😂😂😂
Orange Juli-ī (probably doesn't need the hyphen, but more aesthetically pleasing).
I remember the one in the food court of the Arsenal Mall, back when it was 'the new mall.' Right next to White Mountain Creamery.
@@Kitty8791
Ahh yes... so be it.
I second that spelling. 😌
I have a 20 yr old co-worker who recently told me she sleeps with an electric blanket.
Back in 6th grade I had a classmate who's house caught on fire from using one, made me so scared that I swore I'd never own one
I listened to the episode and man, Conan talked 90% of the time
for me that’s fine, that’s what i tune in for
Most episodes it’s all about him lately 😅
My thought exactly. I love Conan but I really wished he'd given Gulman the air time he deserved. I saw Gulman on tour in September. He was brilliant.
toronto will be waiting for deceased conan to come and do bits and eat quality foods!! merry xmas to all of you! greets from canada 🙂 PS rush rules!!
"Yeah, well - we have this Poltergeist O'Brien haunting our comedy club, ... he doesn't care for rest, or... you know... giving our audience some space they need and stuff... he's practically doing bits 24/7..." - I am lmao😂
Two Massholes - I love em
Now I just picture Conan's dad as Professor Hubert Farnsworth.
or those old electric space heaters, the ones with the glowing orange wire...yeah those things burned down a lot of houses
Adambomb at 8:01 !
Getting a Futurama vibes!
I’m watching this sitting on my electric blanket 🤷🏼♀️
2:16
was really wishing Gary would have quipped "who's headlining?"
His story about walking around the mall... I was seen at that moment.
You know someone has been playing d&d a while when he says TSR...
Play the piano at sears for an hour🤣❤
Listened to Bob Dylan on my 2XL in the musty winter coat closet to watch his eyes 👀.
I remember as a kid playing ff7 on a computer and reading the ad&d dungeon guide. Fairly cool. How do you explain THAC0 to anyone but .01 percent of the population at the time.
Citizen Conan: toboggan
How many of us Massholes that were listening immediately thought “his mom worked at the Liberty Tree Mall” when we heard he was from Peabody?
Coulda been the Burlington Mall
Funny.
Sears didn't have Atari. They had their own system that was exactly the same but cheaper. They did that with the games too. Really a strange time
Does everyone from Peabody pronounce it as Peebuddy?
Remember folks, never pee alone. Alway go with your pee buddy.
Yep. But it's more like PEEbuhDEE
Some older relative I have that died before I was born was very badly burned by an electric blanket.
"Toronto" sounds SOO WEIRD when someone pronounces the second "T" 😂
It stands out like one of us Canucks saying "about" in the midst of conversation with Americans lmao
That's Canucks for ya, down to a T.
@@terri6854 Damn... I re-read that like 3 times before I finally saw what you did there 🤦🤣
Edit: "Weed is legal" is all I'll say
Brooo I still have my 2XL Robot
Brookline Mass sounds like a bus or subway stop.
Props to Conan's mom for keeping a WHITE couch for 50+ years.
Sup
I thought this guy retired
I grew up in a slum
The plural of octopus is octopodes. It's Greek, no Latin.
Love the podcast,... But you guys make so many promises,... Eg,.. where is Aaron in a suit,... ?! And there are alot more,.. 😐😐😐
Hey come on whoever hasn’t created a global pandemic cast the first stone
Gourley's idea of heaven is having his loved ones die just so he has the audience he wants?
Octopus is a Greek word, not Latin, so the plural is octopuses 😜🤓
What are cactus and fungus?
Real Jewish poor person problems 😂he was poor because he had to use an electric blanket 😂first off they weren't cheap and if he as a child had one then so did the whole family 😂he has never been poor 😂
Please Conan, it's just Toronto with a soft o. I understand you weren't born in this country, but please, enough with the hard Os.
What about "pronto"?
As a Canadian the laughable part is Conan wants to go to Toronto, the best view of it is in your rear view mirror. So much better places than that self-absorbed and pretentious shithole
Gary is painfully boring
??? Are you joking???
He's not, but your opinion is painfully worthless.
Perhaps, to a boor.
