ABOUT LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN
Running from 1993-2009, Late Night with Conan O’Brien is one of the most beloved late night shows in television history. Known for its absurdist humor, hilarious celebrity interviews and featuring the best stand-up comedians and musical acts of the ‘90s and early 2000s. Hosted by Conan O’Brien alongside sidekick Andy Richter and house band Max Weinberg and the Max Weinberg 7, Late Night with Conan O’Brien featured unforgettable segments like “If They Mated”, “In the Year 2000”, “Desk Drive”, and made a breakout star of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.
My Brian Stack story. One morning, back when Conan was still doing Late Night on NBC, l got off the train at Grand Central, and as l’m walking up the platform l recognized this actor (l didn’t at the time know he was also a writer) whose work I loved on Conan. I plucked up me courage and approached him and asked if it was indeed he, and indeed it was. He couldn’t have been nicer, as l conveyed my fandom. So, he gave me his number to call for tickets, l subsequently did so, and had a delightful conversation with him, going back to the days of the Embryonic Polka-dotted Rockabilly Fighter Pilots. The tickets came through, l went to the show, called him later to thank him, and again had a wonderfully enjoyable conversation. It may sound silly, but there was a kind of magic about it, being able to speak at length with someone so central to all those years of entertainment, and his being so receptive and kind. Summer Colors Frankenstein!
I love that only us super fans can immediately remember the silliness of Fighter Pilot Embryos Who Like Rockabilly.....and are Polka-dotted.
... before the days of pepper-spray.
That's great. He was one of my faves and I love this bit so much. The other guy who I loved was the guy who made up the overly long complicated chants that he would try and get the audience to follow. Wonder where he went.
That’s so fucking awesome. This character and Hannigan The Traveling Salesman were my two favorite Stack characters, with The Interrupter closely behind.
And yeah everything I’ve read about him, and all of Conan’s writers, as well as Conan himself, are how kind and nice and wonderfully down to earth they always are with fans. :)
You should write a little ditty about your experience 🎵
"I *was* murdered." Gets me every damn time lol
Me too. I've replayed that moment so many times. I can't tell exactly what it is, but his delivery is genius.
pretty brutal
that and Hitlery-hoo
I love how every iteration of this sketch is basically the same as the other ones and it works every time.
A lot of conan's segments are like that. The punchline is the same every time, but the journey to get there is different.
Conan always had a bad memory. This crooner ghost and the traveling salesman guy showed up many times, but he'd never remember their previous visits.
"Oh, I've got bulletproof legs! I've got bulletproof legs...!
Same format, different words…you know, like comedy or music.
Conan is always just as clueless!
Brian Stack is an absolute gem
Yeah :(
Gone too soon...
@@HOTD108_ I don't know if you're doing a bit because he's playing a ghost here, but, just in case, Brian Stack is 100% alive as of this writing, unless he's been murdered since his last tweet five minutes ago.
May his soul transgress this earthly plane.
He writes for Colbert now.
@@ZedPowerWrote a song about that. Like to hear it? Here it go:
Brian Stack was murdered just today.
An Irish woman blew that fool away
She unleashed flying lead
And now poor Stack is dead
For dissing Irish folks and women too
Stackety's through!
I’m most impressed that Artie seemed to know what DNA was in the 1930s!
DNA was first isolated by the Swiss physician Friedrich Miescher in 1869.
@KremitFrogman Yeah, but the phrase DNA wasn't used until the 1950's.
@@djm5687 I guess Artie Kendall was a ghost ahead of his time.
I mean he's been hanging around 👻
@@KremitFrogman But it wasn't until the work of Crick and Watson in the 1950s that we learned it was the code for genetic material.
"Hitlery-Hoo." 🤣🤣🤣
@@2bb-2 Drownedy-Mick!
@@qapplor N✱✱✱✱rly C✱✱t! (cut for time)
Slappity-GAL.
Very popular on German radio back then.
Labotomy-loo
His calm soothing vocal inflections make this even funnier.
A parody of Bing Crosby.
DNA wasn't discovered until the 1950s.
@@r.hulsewe8353Yeah, it’s pretty dead on, at least his speaking voice.
I remember seeing a clip of this on RUclips at the time and I howled with laughter at how Conan plays along and reacts in horror to each ending of the song, particularly "Drownity-Mick." 😂
Watching it in 2024, howling with laughter all over again. 😂
I love Conan's silly bits. Specifically these ones!! Such gold!!
The way Artie looks down to focus on hitting the note just right during “Hitlery Hoo” is hilarious! 🤣🤣
Whoa, didn't realize they were filming this in HD in 2007. I've watched 480i versions of this so many times, crazy to see it this clear and crisp.
Needs to be a supercut of all the Artie segments

There are a few on YT but sadly they're not complete, so you have to make your own playlist as they're kind of scatter all over.
Brian Stack is a goddamn legend, a gem, and a multi-talented artist who still works steadily for the Late Show. Clearly this was just added to the channel because of all of the attention Brian Stack is getting. All of the bootleg copies of this sketch on other channels were getting too many views. I for one am glad Conan's Hot Ones was such a success (of course it was) so that his and Stack's work can be shared again and again. Now stop reading this if you're still here and go watch CONAN O'BRIEN MUST GO on MAX
Buy me a VPN yank
I find it hilarious that DNA's exact function was not exactly well known during Artie Kendall's time, but still used it to make a racist jab at the Irish.
"Racist jab"? Don't we all have monkey DNA?
I don't think it was even know to exist until the 50s.
He’s a ghost, he heard it lol
Truly ahead of his time.
Great - now I’ll be humming ‘Oh Irishmen have Monkey DNA!’ all day long!
We need this back on network TV. Conan always cracks me up.
Even just the first ba-ba-ba-boooo is already pretty funny. Stack is great.
1:00 That's a Neville Chamberlain classic.
🎵...Appeasity-Kraut!🎵
Chamberlain > Churchill
Only the 2nd HD official clip, wow!
Drownity-mick got me good!
Hitlery Hoo, Stenchedy Stew and Drownadee Mick. They're in my head now.
Brian Stack is awesome.
"Sing it to the tune of 'Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer'. C'mon, y'all know it".
a great Bing Crosby impression.
So all his songs are 100% accurate
LNWCOB is such an underrated gem even though it was well known. The era around the 2000s especially with the all stars Stack, Glaser, McCann, Blitz etc.
He just needed to cry, "Give me a C, a bouncy C!"
Well of course the Irish have hot tempers, that's why their nation is called Ire Land.
Ah man I've lived on the island all my life and I've never thought of that one. It's been staring at me all these years. That's getting me so mad I oughta...oh I see what's happening here. Curse you palaceofwisdom with your unironic name.
"I'm surprised you weren't murdered."
"I was murdered."
Im so glad you uploaded one of this skits, this racist, horrible ghost is the best Artie Kendall thing to me, after The Interruptor.
Wait, did you just mention The Interr--
@@PigDanwhat lore am I missing
Ending the song with “Hitleryhoo”…
🤌
Putleri-poo
There’s some compilation of all these here. It’s my most watched video after the Interrupter compilation!
I used to watch that over and over as well
Brian Stack has all the best recurring characters - this one, the Interrupter, Hannigan the Traveling Salesman, Frankenstein (wastes a minute of our time), A member of Slipnutz, Joe Galliano, Fantastic Guy, Clive Clemmons (Inappropriate!), and WikiBear.
Drownd-ity Mick 😅
Stenchity-stew is my new favorite phrase.
This ongoing bit is in a 3-way tie for favorite of all time with In the Year 2000, and his staring contests with Andy
That second song hits though
The best Conan character.
Ol' Rusty Steel! 😆
The Country Music skit from Key and Peele was watching :)
"And beg for Hitler's mercy on our knees." LOL! Total irredeemable cowardice is tight!
more brain stack and other writers bits pls❤
Well the Hot Ones episode had his main writer cracking us up…
That’s bloody hilarious.
Classic Conan.
that old timer is Stacktastic!
i remember these live! what a great find
That kinda went hard at the end
They did this bit like 20 times, and they're all really funny. You got to check them out.
Brian Stack is a real hoot with Colbert. I didn't realize he worked with Conan.
That is pure comedy gold. He should do a song about gypsies and Slavs next. LOL
Brilliant. He should do a song about Jews as well, like having too much money, power and overrepresentation or something. Be hilarious. This is classic stuff
@@madforit2 No, a song about Jews would probably get him in trouble.
So much better than car-pool karaoke.
“Hitlery-hoo” killed me dead
It's somehow more surreal and unhinged in HD.
Turns out it's pretty easy to be a songwriter if you use the exact same tune every time.
Sounds like a song Harrison Butkner would write.
Hey did you know Butkers jersey sold out in record time/numbers?
@@RogerRoyale-g1i so there’s lots of bigots in world
Our dear ghost 😂😂😂😂😂 dear con ❤❤❤❤
Artie rules.
That soft Bing Crosby
What’s funny!? These songs are gold 😮
Didn't Brian also do the name that tune singer skit where Conan goes into the stands and picks someone to play?
He's not wrong.
Brian Stack is my favorite late-night 'unknown' that everybody knows. I don't think I've seen him do anything that wasn't funny.
Stack does Bing Crosby better than Bing Crosby.
Start of the song is similar to butters song from South park
oh thats a common trope for songs
Pretty sure Richard Cheese did the singing for this segment.
*hilarious!*
Wait a second...Artie Kendall mentioned DNA, which wasn't discovered until 1953....
What makes this truly funny, is that Conan is the object of frank racism between two white guys. THAT'S comedy.
"Stenchity-Stew!"
Stenchadeescoot
Four legs good, two legs bad.
Conan alwasys has hope for the " Song for the Ladies."🤔😳😳😳
I love Brian Stack. He's doing an AWESOME job on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
All of those lyrics sound, 100%, like Conon himself wrote them.
Hitlery-hoo!
I *was* murdered
🤣🤣
Big bad Conan isn't doing his show live from Haiti?
Huh?
2:30 Even Conan thought that was funny
I can rarely stand Conan, but this was funny.
ba ba ba boo
Bing Crosby wannabe.
😂
America First!
You scamp
Ok, coup-publican.
I demand they publish the "It sounds like this song, but definitely isn't" ones hahahah Brian Stack is fucking gold.
Brilliant bits like this is why Conan should have stayed in NYC at 12:35 he was Stupid to take The Tonight Show he dumbed down his comedy tried to make it middle of the road white bread humor same mistake Leno made when he got The Tonight Show. Conan would still be on NBC at 12:35 if he had stayed where he belonged. This show had brilliant comedy every night.
It’s the same song every time lmao
I unironically agree with the lyrics of all these songs
lol
You know, Conan's NBC show had so many great characters that didn't follow him to TBS. I guess NBC owned the characters?
Funny its always the same beat for all the songs!
i just saw this dude on stephen colbert
That was his twin brother, Ryan Stack.
Eww colbert is putrid..
Now we literally have people who once again are of the belief that everyone should surrender because "Russia strong grrr."
Family guy already did this years ago.
smh my head at you
Ok tex hooper
Watched 'Conan O'Brian Must Go' and it feels weird without a laugh track.
Ba ba ba booo-
Based ghost
Hi
That song about women. I feel attacked.
Understandable. But just remember:
Doo Doo Dah Doo Doo Doo 🎵
Although Artie K. was 'round the bend.
All his crazy plans came to an end.
He was killed in '39.
You ladies should be fine.
And you won't ever have to go through life
As a Stepford Wife.
@@radicalross7700Murderee-doo!
No one in the West ever thought that way about women except college educated Madison Avenue types in the 50’s. The Irish song was pretty funny except the part about drowning.
Hitlery-Hoo
Hitlery-hoo
Look at us now. We should have listened to his WWII song and the one for women.
What’s great about this is that it’s an *automatic* Moronic Comment of the Year finalist whether it was literal or ironic. Congratulations, dumfuq!
