      I wouldn't expect the Team Coco channel, or "Conan O'Brien needs a friend" podcast going away anytime soon. With "Conan Must Go" coming out sometimes soon on Max. The trailer for the new series actually dropped on the Coco channel a full hour before the Max trailer dropped. That sounds like a business decision and a creative one. To make sure his company, and his people are at the forefront. So nothing like that happened with NBC can happen again. I only half-jokingly say this, but Comrade Conan is all about supporting, and protecting his workers.

    "I'm laughing cause crying would be sad" Watching this today and seeing how much fun Conan is having now with Sona and Matt on his podcast in his new studio.. I'm realizing how important it is to be conscious of how broken you're feeling at a significant low point in your life, asking yourself what are you going to do about it, doing the thing you've decided to do, being able to adapt, and putting in the work to make it out to the other side of it all, giving yourself an outlet, with support of your friends and family...and being able to laugh at some of it too. Watching this truly is inspirational. Will always be rooting for Conan!

Fox has even admitted that what they were given didn't provide anything worth their time.
      It's also questionable that the computer even belongs to Hunter. I mean, why wouldn't he want it back? He's a lawyer, why wouldn't he sue the computer repair man or Giuliani for taking his property without his permission?

Yes, Conan had the young audience, but that isn't enough to be host of TTS. You have to reach everybody. He didn't. Plus Conan fans love Letterman as well... and that's who they watched because Conan was getting his a** kicked by Letterman. That's not NBC's fault. That's all on Conan.

His legacy was very visible during this year’s Emmy’s. In the end, today’s late night hosts will mention conan along with Parr, Allen, Carson, and letterman as influences, and I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone mention Leno….that’s a the most important win that conan got.

    Even in a real interview about a serious topic he parodies himself. At times this comes off as a parody interview altogether but that’s his genius. Comedy with class.

    Conan has always been the funniest host, and I am glad he always went about making his way to do what he loves and make people laugh.
    I love his podcast too.

      The way they treated Community made me hate NBC. But this was just awful too. Conan is such a freaking comedy treasure. He truly loves the art and those who shaped the industry. Incredible.

      @jaake6019 년 전 +1

      I saw his show live when he was still on NBC, and he came out to hype the crowd before it started. I never really noticed on television, and I couldn't believe how tall he was. He was probably around 6'7" if you count his hair.

    It's like entering into another reality through a portal hearing Conan talk without a live studio audience. It really proves how funny he is to know I'm still laughing with or without them.

    Conan was the only talk show host I watched at night even if it was late late night and being a school night. It brings back happy memories for me and I'm going thru a Conan binge

  • @MargueriteFairProductions

    Conan looks reall good in this interview. He handled himself very well during his trials and tribulations. Good for you Conan.
