      Josh stayed out of Norm's way because Norm is the greatest comedian of all time. Conan could take tips; his little asides in the middle of a Norm story are NEVER Norm-quality.

    • @ClassicalPan

      @@thebrazilianatlantis165 I disagree. Josh read the situation and he handled it in the best way. He drove the interview when he needed to, and played with Norm when he could.
      Norm and Conan knew each other and had fun playing. And it's usually funnier because Conan's motive is to help the guest be as interesting as possible, and in the case of Norm the funniest thing Conan could do was to point a finger at how hilariously absurd and full-of-holes Norm's stories were. Affection for Letterman aside, I gotta think Conan's was one of the more fun talk show experience for Norm. Even here, he's got this "who gives a damn" attitude, but on Conan he was laughing and on the edge of his set getting ready for what he'd say next.

      I own a doghouse, but if any of my brothers and sisters who are gay are interested, Norm is a political moderate and he wholeheartedly supports gay rights. E.g. on his sports show about 9 years ago he was cleverly incisive about 5 times mocking basketball players who had used the word "faggot."

    I am in art school right now and I have a figure drawing teacher who talks exactly like norm. He seems like a bitter old asshole of a man but if you actually pay attention he's actually a wise man with a great and silly sense of humor and unbelievable knowledge that he continually downplays. I appreciate him so much because it is the closest I will ever get to meeting Norm. and when I say talks just like him I mean same tone of voice, same sense of humor, same wise yet humble and slightly apathetic view of the world. Anytime someone asks a dumb question he just says "huh!?" everything is exactly the same and I have never learned so much from a single person in my entire life. I bet Norm would have made an excellent professor in another life.

      Brilliant except I wouldn’t say norms view is apathetic. He did as much of everything he loved in life as he could it seemed. And in the face of death and unknowables and the fragility / dubious priorities of most humans, to simply live and love and laugh through life’s ups and downs is heroic and takes deep wisdom and strength.

    Great job by Josh Kepps. Sometimes Norm pushed buttons that might shake/upset someone less prepared, but I think Josh surprised Norm with how well he handled everything; rather than be defeated by the outlandishness, he responded in-kind and got Norm's mind stirring again.
    Norm was just keeping himself entertained. It wasn't personal.
    While this isn't my favorite appearance of Norm's, he did make me laugh pretty hard a couple times. My favorites, though, would be some of the Larry King interviews, because Norm switches off a bit and gives more insight into who the person really is.
