“At that age I could not imagine anybody liking me because I didn’t think there was anything to like.” - thank you, Kumail, for articulating something so many of us feel.
I have to say I feel exactly the same. When I was in school, I felt like I was the outsider, the nerd, the reject. I've bumped into some of my old classmates many years later and they greet me like an old long lost friend. It was quite shocking really. In fact, I felt terrible because they remembered my name easily but I'd forgotten theirs - I just didn't feel like I was part of the group, but I guess I was. I also thought I was the only person who felt like this, but maybe it's the other way around. Do most people feel like outsiders and rejects?
I went from hysterically laughing to slightly tearing up all within a 10 minute clip just because how relatable everything that was talked about is. Always a fan of Kumail. What a great episode.
I'm in my 30's and recently went through something that Kumail touched on at the end of this video. I legit had that same conversation with people I've known since childhood that I didn't grasp the full scope of our friendship because of my own insecurities
I love how honest they are about their feelings and making the rest of us feel normal as well. Thanks team Conan and Kumail for a fun and funny episode. I hope they do another together again!
This hit close to home! It's so nice to see that people you find really cool went through the same things you're currently going through. Like Kumail said, just gotta find a way to be comfortable with who you are, and it'll all be fine!❤️
What if you tried intentionally to start making “wrong” decisions? I think that lack of self trust is what leads to so much suffering. Thinking that you’re a danger to yourself is the bigger problem. It’s your life. You can live however you like. Everywhere you go there you are. Start to see if you can trust yourself with your own life. It’s yours, after all. I think this opens up soooo many doors of not only opportunity but also happiness and contentment…because you finally get to be you in your own life. Anyway rant over. Onward!!!
What I've realized is that even "wrong" decisions are better than no decisions. There really is no right and wrong because nothing is stagnant, it's ever changing. It's how you adapt to the changes that determines the success or failure. When things are set in motion opportunities follow one way or another. For me the worst feeling is standing still- not failing. Wrong decisions also make for great anecdotes lol!
At 45 the situation will be 10 times as bad. So in a way the good news is you are already making the worst possible decision....so any decision you make will be positive. And there's no reason to be terrified of un-doing a terrible decision.
Hearing Kumail at the end talk about how he thought he was unliked in school, only to find out later that he was liked really resonates with me. I went through high school as a nerdy introvert, and I only had 1 real friend in school. I had a couple more friends in my neighborhood, but really only 1 friend in school. Many years later, I've run into some of my classmates and they greeted me as though I was a long lost friend. In some cases I didn't even remember who they were, because I was in my own shell, not really paying close attention to others. So, for any kids in school today who feel outcast and alone, be aware that some of this may be in your own head. You may well have more friends than you realize. You may not be as much of a misfit as you think.
Both Kumail and Conan talk about, what I would call, pressure to figure out who they were, what their role was, how to fit in at a young age (before 18). I never thought of that growing up. Am I the only one? Why at that age do you have to know who you are? I wonder if because Conan's father had an admired profession as a doctor, plus the added competitiveness of having many siblings to compare yourself to, if that made him feel like he had to declare his profession, like lawyer or author. Maybe his household always talked about careers and that is why it was on his mind? I'm wondering what other people's experiences were?
Well, for me I always had a personality and an idea about myself, but as growing up and living this life that could be pretty hard sometimes, I kept losing faith in myself or trying to change or whatever, untill funny enough, when I was finishing high school and going to college,, I started to choose my values and how I wanna live my life and some decisions that I took back then that I still stand by untill today, so yeah for me 2013 when I was 18 19 i spent a lot of time figuring out who I am and I'm grateful for that year because I established some sense of that.. Of course i went through all kinds of troubles and emotions during and after college and I disconnected with myself for a while, then by 25, when i started working and establishing a somewhat stable life, I started working on myself again and connecting again with myslf ( thanks to covid we all had to ) but yeah I know myself more today than ever and i'm approching 30 i believe the process is still going and i should say, this is more about how I wanna live my life, how I wanna exist, to what I belong, what I appreciate and what I dont, how I can improve my life, how I can stop some bad habits , how I can take it easy on myself, it's more about who i am, than it's about a job or how people see me
When were you 18? Kumail is in his 40s and Conan even later. Back then people weren't as free thinking as we are now. You were expected to move out and have a job straight into college
@@bahiya94 same, I never felt that I needed to "figure myself out", never even thought of it. Everything moved pretty naturally...like ok now it's time for college and oh I guess I'm at college now and same when I started working. I never felt the pressure that it needed to be right or that I needed to be the best at something. But I guess it's those kind of people who have that drive and can make it to the top. Those who feel like they have something to prove. Kind of glad I don't have it tbh
@@myztik5716 I think it's partially about generational differences for sure, and other things play into the pressure too. Like having immigrant parents or grandparents, or families who survived huge trauma or oppression. The pressure to become something, to use the opportunities afforded by the sacrifice of past generations, that can be a LOT of pressure on kids finding their way through life.
Yeah, fitting in is all well and good, but maybe that square peg in the round hole you’re trying to fit into actually sucks all kinds. I know who I am. I just need to get there quicker.
I'm massively impressed at how well-spoken and natural Kumail sounds in interviews. You can tell a lot of people interviewed are nervous, and sometimes you can tell that they're kind of following a script, but Kumail really does a great job of balancing humor and genuine thought in this interview. I could listen to him talk forever.
See I'm the opposite here, I have friends from high school who I thought really liked me but they never respond anymore and it's hard to think they care at all.
I blame my parents. Soon as I realised kids found my impressions of my parents accents funny (punjabi-arab and Jamaican), I settled into the role of class clown but I was also a nerd so used to pass exams without even bothering.
im literally watching this whilst ima at Uni, in my first year, only about 2 months in. i definitely haven't found who i am but i'm realising that i'm not some sort of alien for the first time, that everyone around me is human and that i'm doing pretty well on my own, i'm not struggling but i still haven't found myself.
I loved this so much. I do wonder if I make a question to the Team Coco if they would respond? I'm just wondering if Conan chose the name of the podcast "Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend" himself? I find it so genius and funny because one of the things I've concluded/ thought about podcast creators is: Why would someone start a podcast? Well perhaps one good reason would be because they feel kind of lonely and would like to get in touch with a lot of people... So that's why I think the title is so genius and hilarious (and also very honest if that's true hehe). Great show. New fan of this podcast.
Here's my 33 year old ass working at a grocery store and having no idea what to do with my life. I think to relate to both of them though in the sense that I love comedy and people have been telling me I should pursue it, but also I have a lot of self doubt and just kind of don't see it being a reasonable thing to pursue. Also I'm like half Irish and ginger so that's something.
"[A] reasonable thing," is usually the beginning and end of creativity. Go do something interesting that you'll learn and grow from-- that'll serve you and the world well.
The people around you is what matters in life. Don't say no to them if they ask you to hang out. If it doesn't go against your morals. I sat in a 2 million dollar house alone on the beach. I felt miserable. Once the house was full of friends and family I realized I needed them. That's where the value in life came from.
Why are the comments here so negative ? Conan has had less funny guests on his show and Kumail is actually funny. I don’t know why people want to attach him for being funny. He is funny. Silicon Valley was funny, his stand up is funny, his guest appearances on talk shows are funny, he was the funniest character in Eternals, why are people surprised that people find him funny? Sounds like your hatred for other aspects of him seem to bias you against thinking he’s funny. You know who I found unfunny and just loud, Bill burr but i bet the same people here hating on Kumail somehow think that Bill is just a breath of fresh air.
It sounds like you have a more milquetoast sense of humor, I truly don’t mean that as an insult. In my opinion, Kumail is funny the way the ‘funny guy’ in an office is funny. His humor is very safe and baseline. It’s all preference, some people like bland food others like spicy.
Bill is self-aware, that's why it's hard to hate him even if you don't find him funny. This Kumail guy got juiced up for 1 mediocre marvel movie and now acts like he's been the leading man his entire career.
@@takuyakimura9 You seem to think you know how Kumail actually feels about himself just from a few interviews. Bill Burr to you may come across as self aware but to me he comes across as entitled and a whiny complainer with nothing interesting to add of value. He heavily relies on just saying something contreversial that’s shock value to make it seem like he’s some genius who is saying how “people really think.” There’s no nuisance and no real comedy or punchline just him yelling something to the abyss. Also Kumail doesn’t act like he’s a leading man and but his career has had a boost, you’d have to be blind not to see that, a movie he wrote and starred in got nominated for an Oscar even before the Eternals and he’s now trying a dramatic role as a lead, you seem to be upset that he’s successful and that he’s acknowledging the very obvious fact that he successful. He’s not claiming that he’s some comedy king or Tom Hanks, but he’s acknowledging that his career is widening and is coming out with new projects. Anything else you seem to feel about him seems more of a projection of your insecurity.
I really both of the comedians that you mentioned however I don't see why you have to put down one comedian to make the other better. They have different styles but are both quite funny imo.
@@stormthing22 I’m making a point, and I’m not going on videos that feature Bill Burr saying he’s trash and not funny, but people who seem to have an issue with Kumail success have flooded the comments here talking negatively about him and his humour. That’s the difference
Listen kids...dont waste time lamenting over what you dont have...spend time appreciating for what you DO have and planning for what you want. If you are passionate or right about something that isnt gonna cause global ruin...go for it...dont even listen to those unmotivated naysayers.
I thought I knew myself pretty well, for ages, but it wasn't till my 40s that I understood some fundamental things that had informed everything else, all along. It was like draining a bathtub, if the bathtub were full of pain and confusion. I'm still miserable but at least now I know why. ;-)
I'm 40 and well off and don't have to work. I have a loving spouse and I'm a talented chef and photographer. life is good.... I'm still trying to figure out who i am and what i want, and i still feel like I'm bobbing around aimlessly in the ocean, unaccomplished, drowning in sorrow and lost potential
Wait, I've been listening to this podcast for awhile now and just learned that it's recorded? Why can't we watch the whole thing on RUclips? This is dumb.
never really liked this guy, never really thought he was funny. didn't have anything against him, just thought he wasn't that funny. but after this interview, he seems more likeable. not sure why. humour isn't bad, and seems like a nice, humble, respectable guy
I have learned a lot here today...... I have wanted a DeLorean for 40 years. no more. Harrison Ford is no longer President? Boy, are we screwed. Ronald McDonald was not a funny enough looking clown? So, he's the standard, and there are other clowns- with the capacity to look weirder? I forgot there were Gremlins everywhere. Thanks.
Tomorrow’s World Relationships A perfect match? A loving family? Happy children? The pressures of today’s world create a grim reality where successful and lasting relationships are something of a fantasy. We cannot rely on the experience of elders since they lived in a very different world, so we have to find how to create meaningful and sustainable partnerships today. The key word in this search is connectedness, or rather, interconnectedness. Because the world is changing at an accelerating pace, it is pointless to compare today’s relationships to those of our parents, or even to relationships of people a decade or two older than us. Each year, the world becomes increasingly connected, and a crisis in one place quickly spreads to the rest of the world. On the personal level, too, things today are very different from what they were a decade ago. We have moved from fast food to fast relationships, and brief has become our permanent state of being. To cope with the growing uncertainty and find direction in the emerging chaos, we need to understand where we are going. We are headed toward total connectedness and interdependence. It is an irreversible process. The more connected we become, the more dependent on each other we become, as well. Soon, we will realize that anything that hurts others hurts me, too, and there is nothing I can do to break my ties with the world. In order to cope successfully with our interconnected future, we must change the nature of our ties from abusive and oppressive to supportive and embracing. Since we already broadcast our thoughts, words, and actions to the entire world, we might as well broadcast positive thoughts, words, and actions, and help improve the world for ourselves and others. In a world that is connected positively, the family is the basic unit of connection. A reality where humanity is a mass of isolated individuals is unsustainable because there will be no connections between people and society will disintegrate just as any organism disintegrates into the smallest elements when it dies. Therefore, the family will be the basic unit where people cultivate positive connections. Since people are becoming increasingly individualistic, the family will be the place where people learn to embrace diversity rather than fight against people who hold different views. People will learn that just as our body exists thanks to different cells and organs working together for the sake of the body, different people who work together for the sake of the family enable the success of the family. From the family unit, people will take their lessons to the community, from the community to the city, from the city to the state, to the country, and finally to the entire world. The key, therefore, to successful relationships in tomorrow’s world, lies not only in connections, but in connections between different people for a common goal, where the differences between them ensure their success and make their mutual dependence imperative, and even welcome.
I Get That Team CoCo Wants Lots of Ad Clicks or However One Makes $$$$ From RUclips, But Doesn't Conan Have Enough Money By Now 2 Just Release These Conversations as Whole Pieces? Rather Than The Scraps We Get, Like We're Infotainment Dogs.
I hope Kumail does the daily show. If he would be less woke, it would be on point. I get it, tho dude. My mom and a couple friends died in front of me, but I’m from the best country in the world. I feel guilty being called an empath. So, I’m blessed.
4 religions but basically a single culture. Kumail is super assimilated into American culture, and the other three all grew up with American culture. Religion doesn't matter, culture does.
Thar last part about being charity case is so relatable to every young person growing up. 🥲 I hope everyone understands what kumail said about finding yourself.
Why do people think they are special when they don’t like someone or their comedy. It’s like they are trying to show that they have higher standards than everyone else. You literally are watching conan, you’re standards are as low as they can be.
“At that age I could not imagine anybody liking me because I didn’t think there was anything to like.” - thank you, Kumail, for articulating something so many of us feel.
What a quote
What got me was the bit about feeling like the charity case.
One hundred and ten percent.
I have to say I feel exactly the same. When I was in school, I felt like I was the outsider, the nerd, the reject. I've bumped into some of my old classmates many years later and they greet me like an old long lost friend. It was quite shocking really. In fact, I felt terrible because they remembered my name easily but I'd forgotten theirs - I just didn't feel like I was part of the group, but I guess I was. I also thought I was the only person who felt like this, but maybe it's the other way around. Do most people feel like outsiders and rejects?
meanwhile I loved myself and my narcissistic mom destroyed everything good and happy about me so I hated myself
I went from hysterically laughing to slightly tearing up all within a 10 minute clip just because how relatable everything that was talked about is. Always a fan of Kumail. What a great episode.
The chemistry between these two so great, they both seem really similar personalities, both quick witted, comedically driven overachievers
Being a gen z conan fan is so rewarding. The stories and advice on growing up are really relatable and insightful
This was nice. I think a lot of people need to hear that finding yourself isn't something that happens easily.
I'm in my 30's and recently went through something that Kumail touched on at the end of this video. I legit had that same conversation with people I've known since childhood that I didn't grasp the full scope of our friendship because of my own insecurities
I love how when Conan gets really personal he looks toward his Chums. They're his security blanket when he opens up.
Wow, the last minute or so might be the most open and vulnerable story i ever heard on CONAF. Kudos Kumail!
i love how conan says he got into a really good school and its literally HARVARD
Love you Kumail! You’re a genius and a gentleman. Go forth and share your gifts…
I love how honest they are about their feelings and making the rest of us feel normal as well. Thanks team Conan and Kumail for a fun and funny episode. I hope they do another together again!
Love Kumail. Loved him in college humor sketches and Pete Holmes sketches
This was so wholesome and relatable. He's now one of my favorite people ever.
This hit close to home! It's so nice to see that people you find really cool went through the same things you're currently going through. Like Kumail said, just gotta find a way to be comfortable with who you are, and it'll all be fine!❤️
I'm 30 now and still have no clue where my life is going because I'm terrified of making the wrong decisions
Same still at 39
What if you tried intentionally to start making “wrong” decisions? I think that lack of self trust is what leads to so much suffering. Thinking that you’re a danger to yourself is the bigger problem. It’s your life. You can live however you like. Everywhere you go there you are. Start to see if you can trust yourself with your own life. It’s yours, after all. I think this opens up soooo many doors of not only opportunity but also happiness and contentment…because you finally get to be you in your own life. Anyway rant over. Onward!!!
What I've realized is that even "wrong" decisions are better than no decisions. There really is no right and wrong because nothing is stagnant, it's ever changing. It's how you adapt to the changes that determines the success or failure. When things are set in motion opportunities follow one way or another. For me the worst feeling is standing still- not failing.
Wrong decisions also make for great anecdotes lol!
At 45 the situation will be 10 times as bad. So in a way the good news is you are already making the worst possible decision....so any decision you make will be positive. And there's no reason to be terrified of un-doing a terrible decision.
I really feel like you made a mistake in posting this comment.
What an honest conversation that so many need to hear. Hard to put it all out there and they have. Thanks

I love that at about 1:40, Conan repeat's Oogway's statement to Sifu: "One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it"
Funny nerds rock! Being funny and talented is underrated. It gets others through the hard times. Thank you for sharing your gift!
This may be the first time ever that a Harvard graduate said something about their college years that didn’t start with “when I was at HARVARD…”
yes, that even seemed intentional.
This was a very effective therapy session, loved it!!
Wow, I love these 2 together 💗 It seems very authentic and vulnerable 🌟✨💓
Very wholesome, thank you.
Conan talking about how long it takes to figure out who you are what you're good at? My guy, you were an SNL writer at 25!
This was insightful and personal and exactly why I love CONAF
I still haven't discovered that he is funny, but I can wait.
*We need more Kumail!*
I think Conan just found his friend
The "Well, you are Irish" joke should get bigger laugh
See I'm the opposite here, I have friends from high school who I thought really liked me but they never respond anymore and it's hard to think they care at all.
Same

Yeah, I’m turning 50 next month and still haven’t figured myself out yet. Good thoughts from interesting minds.
thats a pretty inlightening interview..amazing
Looks like he's still on the fun. He looks like he's on all the top fun and even funnier than before. He's definitely at his absolute funniest now.

If you're so afraid of failure, you will never succeed. You have to take chances.
Love Kumail!
"Got into a good college"
It's okay Conan, you can say the H word
Kumail looks like Robin Williams brown version.
unexpectedly deep and useful
I wonder how often Kumail works out to maintain those Marvel muscles.
wow, therapeutic af, awesome stuff.

Most of us can relate to this
Is Harvard Lampoon kinda like Cambridge Footlights in the way they inspire great comedians?
This talk was amazing :o
great episode
I'm 40 and well off and don't have to work. I have a loving spouse and I'm a talented chef and photographer. life is good.... I'm still trying to figure out who i am and what i want, and i still feel like I'm bobbing around aimlessly in the ocean, unaccomplished, drowning in sorrow and lost potential

To be honest, Ronald McDonald has has more brand consistency than the Pope has.
4:26 He's just saying that because of the red hair.
Cool!
Conspiracy theory: Ronald McDonald house was setup to avoid anyone ripping on McDonald’s mascots.
Wow!!
never really liked this guy, never really thought he was funny. didn't have anything against him, just thought he wasn't that funny. but after this interview, he seems more likeable. not sure why. humour isn't bad, and seems like a nice, humble, respectable guy
I at that stage what they were in their younger years
Im 25 and don't know wtf am i doing in life
Why?? I knew right away he was funny. I love all his movies ❤
It’s never too late! I’m glad for him because I’m 37 years old and I still haven’t discovered that Kumail is funny, so this really gives me hope!!
College isn't that long, some people go their entire lives and never find you funny 😁
(I think you are but the joke was low hanging fruit)
I have learned a lot here today......
I have wanted a DeLorean for 40 years.
no more.
Harrison Ford is no longer President?
Boy, are we screwed.
Ronald McDonald was not a funny enough looking clown?
So, he's the standard, and there are other clowns- with the capacity to look weirder?
I forgot there were Gremlins everywhere.
Thanks.
Conan wasn't really bad looking when he was younger though, based on videos I've seen from when he was younger
Bollywood male!! 😮
Tomorrow’s World Relationships
A perfect match? A loving family? Happy children? The pressures of today’s world create a grim reality where successful and lasting relationships are something of a fantasy. We cannot rely on the experience of elders since they lived in a very different world, so we have to find how to create meaningful and sustainable partnerships today. The key word in this search is connectedness, or rather, interconnectedness.
Because the world is changing at an accelerating pace, it is pointless to compare today’s relationships to those of our parents, or even to relationships of people a decade or two older than us. Each year, the world becomes increasingly connected, and a crisis in one place quickly spreads to the rest of the world.
On the personal level, too, things today are very different from what they were a decade ago. We have moved from fast food to fast relationships, and brief has become our permanent state of being.
To cope with the growing uncertainty and find direction in the emerging chaos, we need to understand where we are going. We are headed toward total connectedness and interdependence. It is an irreversible process. The more connected we become, the more dependent on each other we become, as well. Soon, we will realize that anything that hurts others hurts me, too, and there is nothing I can do to break my ties with the world.
In order to cope successfully with our interconnected future, we must change the nature of our ties from abusive and oppressive to supportive and embracing. Since we already broadcast our thoughts, words, and actions to the entire world, we might as well broadcast positive thoughts, words, and actions, and help improve the world for ourselves and others.
In a world that is connected positively, the family is the basic unit of connection. A reality where humanity is a mass of isolated individuals is unsustainable because there will be no connections between people and society will disintegrate just as any organism disintegrates into the smallest elements when it dies.
Therefore, the family will be the basic unit where people cultivate positive connections. Since people are becoming increasingly individualistic, the family will be the place where people learn to embrace diversity rather than fight against people who hold different views. People will learn that just as our body exists thanks to different cells and organs working together for the sake of the body, different people who work together for the sake of the family enable the success of the family.
From the family unit, people will take their lessons to the community, from the community to the city, from the city to the state, to the country, and finally to the entire world. The key, therefore, to successful relationships in tomorrow’s world, lies not only in connections, but in connections between different people for a common goal, where the differences between them ensure their success and make their mutual dependence imperative, and even welcome.
Hey, it's Pakistani Denzel
I just discovered it now because of the title.
Oh Kumail Showedupiani this time
So Conan stopped doing a talk show so he could do a talk show?
🥲
😄
I Get That Team CoCo Wants Lots of Ad Clicks or However One Makes $$$$ From RUclips, But Doesn't Conan Have Enough Money By Now 2 Just Release These Conversations as Whole Pieces? Rather Than The Scraps We Get, Like We're Infotainment Dogs.
You forgot to mention on the audio version of the podcast, how hot he is.
Good god!
I hope Kumail does the daily show. If he would be less woke, it would be on point. I get it, tho dude. My mom and a couple friends died in front of me, but I’m from the best country in the world. I feel guilty being called an empath. So, I’m blessed.
I disagree, Kumail. You *are* good-looking. 😊
Does anyone notice that there are 4 religions in that table and everyone is laughing ? why we can be like that in the entire world ???
we are. it's literally just on the news we're not, divide and conquer.
4 religions but basically a single culture. Kumail is super assimilated into American culture, and the other three all grew up with American culture. Religion doesn't matter, culture does.
Kumail Nanjiani is atheist.
4 Religions? Idk how that's possible with Sona and Conan both having Christian background...
@@username7735 one's catholic, one's orthodox. Though to be fair, I doubt Conan is very religious.
First!
Is your boyfriend impressed? Nobody cares
@@xploration1437 I know you are, don’t be jealous
@@xploration1437 what’s your number let me take you out on a date
Oh funny, I have yet to discover that Kumail Nanjiani was funny
I still haven’t discovered that he is funny 😅😅
He’s definitely on Trt lol
just test
probably more than that previously
Who’s gonna tell him?
what
This comment section is a great example of why you should never refer to yourself as funny
As a funny person, I agree.
people who think and call themselves smart and funny publicly usually are neither exhibit a) Kumail Nanjiani
Thar last part about being charity case is so relatable to every young person growing up. 🥲
I hope everyone understands what kumail said about finding yourself.
Kumail is so yoked
PKMB
just goes to show these hollywood superstars are deeply insecure people.
I have yet to discover him being funny.
Why do people think they are special when they don’t like someone or their comedy. It’s like they are trying to show that they have higher standards than everyone else. You literally are watching conan, you’re standards are as low as they can be.
Who said they feel special? They’re just stating their opinions in the same way you are stating yours.
What is actually the job of the other 2, except for laughing?
You are good looking!
I wonder when the rest of us will discover you're funny.
Boooo
Good one.
watch his stand up, listen to his old podcast, he's literally one of the wittiest guys in entertainment
Probably ten years ago, but not anymore.
@@andrewtregoning Literally. Like literally. Literally. Not figuratively. But literally. Like literally. Literally. Literally.
Why does he pronounce "Pakistan" like a non-pakistani?

And If So, Are You A Carbon Based Life Form ?
