This is so interesting watching this after everything we know now with her book coming out. The way she reacts to the questions about her family. She is such a warrior
It's surprising how good a black leather jacket and a Catholic schoolgirl uniform look together. Like something Courtney Love or Kat Bjelland would have worn in the early '90s.
Every time they post one of these classic interviews I panic and have to check google to see if they are playing it because the person died EDIT: I'm being hyperbolic, I don't actually have a panic attack or anything
In the 1970s you could sneak "weed" into a plane, in your underpants. I had friends who smoked a joint in the plane's lavatory. And they didn't get busted.
@@jeffcrow2506 Ha,..right you are. Well, it was more daring in the 1970s. Can't light up a doobie in the lavatory, these days, though. Are weed vape pens safe to fly with? No body cavity searches or pat downs?
I have always loved Molly Shannon. Her upbringing explains her bravery and great personality! Actually what she’s describing wasn’t too uncommon, a lot of parents and grandparents back in the day had an edge and would break lots of rules and would teach their kids to do so. A whole different time. America used to be a place where a young teenager and even a kid could drive without a license and carry a gun and look after themselves and work and their families if they needed to. If you know any elders or even grew up as late as the 90’s you’ve seen a whole different time. Not as “free” as what she’s describing, but still more free.
This reminds me of Conan's joke when he hosted the emmys, 'If you were raised in a caring and nurturing environment, you wouldn't be in show business'. Hmmm.... Not really a joke, is it?!
Listen to Conan's podcast with her as a guest, she explains it there.. But basically they tried to get back on a plane but it was full so the dad paid for them to fly back.
Her dad told her and her friend to her a hotel and he'd come get them the next day...but no hotel would agree to that. He ended up paying for their flights back, and took money from Molly's babysitting money for a long time, to make up for the flight $$.
Molly is talking about the good old days. When you went out to be with your friends and the only rule was, " be back before it gets dark." Then Atari came along. The beginning of the end 😆. ✌🏼🦁
Sadly, her dad was an addict who killed her mother and sister in a drunk driving accident. Molly survived but basically had to raise herself because her dad was a mess.
It is always funny to hear how so many celebrities were delinquents. People on my city fb page constantly complain about all the. things the "bad kids" are doing and want them sent to prison for stupid reasons. They get all pious and act like they never even thought of doing anything even the least bit "naughty".
Are u really trying to justify committing crimes because u have heard a bunch of 'celebs' talk about their criminal activities during their younger days?? What this woman has mentioned here aren't even petty crimes. They are serious criminal offences! Easy for her to say all this now after all the trouble and damage she would have caused others. And these people don't suddenly change when they become famous rich celebrities. How much ever they try to hide it, this messed up behaviour surfaces in some form or the other occasionally and often in more harmful ways. There is no justification whatsoever in committing a crime, however trivial it may be unless your survival depended on it. So please don't try to make sense of the world based on what these screwed up individuals say and do. They are certainly not the right role models. And as for people being harsh on delinquents today, let me tell you that during the middle ages, children were executed for petty crimes like stealing a loaf a bread! So we are far more soft on such crimes on children today.
I know, think about that, they boarded a PLANE, WITHOUT ADULTS, it's amazing how much freedom we once had as Americans, and NO ''terrorists'' don't ruin everything, world government does.
@@mountaindew3201 yeah, but the bushes don't have the money to pull that off, daddy bush was the main CIA guy so he did set it up, but the rothschilds and many others funded it.
Was her dad on drugs or something? This is nuts. The airplane thing was bad enough, the driving is completely insane, I mean he could have easily been arrested for that.
She just told the same story on Conan's podcast, presumably why they posted this old video. Conan looks to have forgotten all about this story he heard 25 years ago. On the podcast, Shannon explained she was in a bad car accident at age 4, where her mother and younger sister died, and afterwards her father pursued this kind of permissive parenting style. Same exact story, but listening to Shannon in 2022, sounds like even as an young adult in 1997 she hasn't even fully come to terms with that tragedy, and it took some more years before she could fully grieve for that loss and move on with her life.
Haha, this is definitely a pre-9/11 conversation if I ever heard one
They talked about this again in the podcast and they emphasised how it's only possible before 9/11.
She said she was 12, so we're talking more like 1976 or 7 when the plane thing happened.

I had to look it up. Wow. You could tell for a second she had to pause and recollect herself when he asked about her family.
Snuck isn't a word, Conan. You went to Harvard and you should know that.
Ok, Ms. Garner😉
Snuck: past tense of sneak!
1k likes by tomorrow.

Even better cause Molly said it “correctly”
Molly Shannon is hilarious and I've always found her to be foxy
same
She is a foxy queen
I remember when this aired the first time, I was so impressed!
That was hilarious 😂
THE BALLET BANDITS
You could get away with that pre 9-11
Mary Katherine Gallagher? A shoplifter?! What a SUPERSTAR! 😂
@Zen What’s up? Lol
That is some pre-9/11 reality
50! 50 years old!
She is the leader of the Catholic school girl gang
Black Angels!

Her new book is soo good!
Early days Conan wasn’t very good as an interviewer, he kept interrupting Molly’s story. He greatly improved later.
...and I think the opposite..lol. I am enjoying him much me here than his recent shows/style...
Just got here after listening to the podcast, what a deja vu .. 😀
Goin'm with 'snuck' again ? ;)
Love her! ❤
I used to smoke cigarettes in my seat in planes,....there was an ashtray built into the arm rest.
Her episode on Scrubs was one of the best, Season 4 episode 8 "My Last Chance", go watch it if you haven't
I'm going to watch it tomorrow.
Every time they post one of these classic interviews I panic and have to check google to see if they are playing it because the person died
EDIT: I'm being hyperbolic, I don't actually have a panic attack or anything
they've been good about timely posts, never faster than you should already know about it
Why do you panic?🤔
In this case because she's the latest guest in the podcast
No need to panic man .everybody dies someday.
great interview funny story
What a ride
Yay Cleveland! Molly grew up in a suburb close to the one I grew up in,...though I am quite a bit older. But yeah,...cool.
Easy to get into an ariplane... Of course it's 1997!!
In the 1970s you could sneak "weed" into a plane, in your underpants. I had friends who smoked a joint in the plane's lavatory. And they didn't get busted.
u can do that now its called a vape pen

Not all of them are. 😄

nope, thats what they search for, damaged goods, esp good looking damaged goods.
How did she get home???? This is driving me nuts.

I feel like Molly Shannon should write a young adult series based on all her exploits. I would have (and still would) have eaten that up.
she just wrote a book, look it up :)
@@zizinnnn I'm aware and glad she has a memoir out. I could see a lot of these stories working better as separate books or movie storylines too.
ill alow it
lol
Sadly, her dad was an addict who killed her mother and sister in a drunk driving accident. Molly survived but basically had to raise herself because her dad was a mess.
I Would.
SUPERSTAR
This American life brought me here
What a world it was pre 9/11
So she really is Mary Katherine Gallagher lmao
This was just before she cut her hair down to shoulder-level at the start of the 1997-98 season.
Snuck isn't a word, Conan. You should know that, you went to Harvard
shhhhhhhh
He snuck in...
ruclips.net/video/PJVNzwTnfbk/видео.html Just in case you wanna hear his maniacal laugh

Snuck is a word. From the Gaelic snucaigh, or crawl.
