@@mi5anthrope Do any of you on this thread even know what the word "marketing" means? Conan knows exactly what he is doing when he keeps emphasizing "this is unusable". He is generating even more interest in the episode. If something is considered unsuable on TV, it usually means either technically it was a bad shoot, or it is rife with bloopers. Get it now? It's like having 2 movies to choose from, but the mainstream media is desperately trying to keep you from seeing one of them. A la "Sound of Freedom". Which film are you gonna lean toward watching? Same concept here. Be emphasizing and repeating that this is unusable material, Conan is telling you "this went off the rails. It is crazy". This makes you want to watch it even more--again and again. Read the comments here that say "my 15th, 20th, 50th time watching this", then come back here and tell me how right I was.

[@SoCloseToToast]

Shoutout to the live switcher for cutting back n forth, also added to the hilarity of Conon and Kev's conversation

[@pathologicaldoubt]

Underrated

[@KevlaminTheMighty]

Very noticeable, especially re: live podcasts. Really captures the conversation of the room better.

"Conon"

[@gnack420]

Are these actually broadcast live somewhere? I don't think they are, these are edited together after the fact.

[@KevlaminTheMighty]

@@gnack420 I think. And I could be very wrong, but having watched a lot of both podcast live/live-stream stuff, I guess the answer to your question is yes. They are usually broadcast live, with live cameras, then edited later. You often see " live unedited" versions later. But the camera cuts are probably multiple views edited in later for the best one. Watch a live sports game. Most of that is on the fly cuts.

[@sycois]

Kevin did to Conan here what Conan does on the Hot Ones interview. Totally unpredictable and committed to all his bits

[@samchen9951]

This is legit the hardest I've ever seen Conan laugh. None of the great guests (and there are MANY) had ever seemed to make conan's eyebrows go up like the Joker and his face turn a whole new shade of pink

[@kenten]

Once every ten years, I find myself laughing so hard that I just can't breathe. Actually, it might be 20 years since the last time. I had no particular regard for Kevin Nealon before this, but this conversation brought me to literal tears.

[@mikehomner4724]

Without a doubt one of the funniest segments ever! Nealon is on his game. There is some crazy chemistry between these two. Sona is the icing on the cake! Mr editor, please number in sequence. This left a big smile on my face!!!

[@Roset03]

Just saw this. Oh man, I had to reach for a tissue and hold onto it halfway through-I was crying laughing and everyone was asleep, so I was trying to be quiet about it with my headphones on!! This is so funny it should almost be illegal!!! Gosh, I need more of these guys in my life.

[@vikrjeg]

Their comedic chemistry is just off the charts . "Legend of...I won't say mediocrity because you'd think I'd say that" 🤣🤣💀

[@bmoc0867]

"You're better than that. Not alot better, but..."

[@xordus]

That one was so hilariously unexpected omg.

[@petiewheat82]

Yeah he managed to drop the biggest insult possible without actually saying it, that was defcon 5 level insult, lol.

[@olydelostrinos7295]

This is gold. I cannot count how many times I have watched this episode. Two brilliant minds plus their good chemistry is just exceptional.

[@leob4403]

Nealon has a brilliant mind how? He's just babbling incoherently

[@madmort8516]

10:41. Their back and forth is why I keep coming back to this video. 😂😂😅

[@Kopacetix]

This is the definition of when a handshake meets a fist bump.

[@danielsarmiento1591]

Like some kind of leg lamp.

[@mikek7660]

I found this clip randomly a couple weeks ago. Rewatched it a bunch of times, crying laughing in my car. I was watching a compilation of Kevin's appearances on conan's shows today, over the years. They have such great comical chemistry together, and this interview is so much better when you realize it's the culmination of over 20 years of this dynamic building between them lmfaooo

[@raoulduke7364]

Conan is a national treasure. I just realized that he’s the best talk show host of all time. He’s so likable.

[@ZVvereVvolf]

Agreed. I love Conan. He's his own thing. None of the other late night guys have anything on him.

[@jjg548]

This is comedy GOLD! The most humble host brings on the best subversive guest and both are trying to make the other one break. I want more!

[@tktoadE]

Humble?

[@InsignificantNick]

It's been a year and the "Take a break, we'll be right back" still gets me.

[@s2cardinal]

This was thee best interview I’ve watched in a long time. I rarely actually laugh out loud but you two had me rolling. Kevin is in a league all his own.

[@PiglipsMaximus]

When did you last wear a tux hahah so many moments

[@chaneyj24]

Without a doubt the hardest I've laughed in a LONG time. This episode was comedy chaos.

[@jenkem4464]

"Said the torpedo" is my favourite line from this.

[@NJC00ki3]

Everytime I'm sad or having a bad day, I rewatch this episode.

[@PHEONIX_720]

Holy crap my eyes are burning from the amount of joyful tears coming out after laughing for so long

[@STVG71]

This was one of my favorite episodes. I knew Nealon was quick but he is on another level to get the entire room to be laughing. Their chemistry is fantastic!

[@BlutigeTranen]

I loved this whole "interview" that went from trading jokes and devolved into absolute madness and giggles. Put a smile on my face.

[@Dimebolt101]

I listen to every podcast, this was one of the best episodes, but this is the first time I've watched any video of the podcast and this just makes the interaction 10x better. Seeing Sona losing it when you can't necessary hear it on the podcast was gold.

[@billmcdonald2067]

"You know I love you, right?" "No, I dont know!" Lol

[@davidjordonmiller9686]

This was amazing. Both of them grown men, well known, accomplished comedians, but trying to be sincere for 3 minutes broke them. Watching them try to be serious and pass up jokes and opportunities to insult each other, and laughing harder because of it, was like getting in trouble for rough-housing with your best friend at school, and while the teacher is lecturing you both on proper behavior, you’re both still trying to subtly get in the last smack of the fight without laughing, which makes it 10x harder to not laugh.

[@colinmclaughlin9047]

I was dying. I was laughing so hard I couldnt breath. And I just randomly stumbled here. Always loved these two, never realized how much I needed them together.

[@williamgrand9724]

The whole podcast is amazing. They are both bickering and turning things around on each other the whole time. One of the funniest podcasts episodes I've ever heard.

[@Jordison888888]

Well the guy that wrote on a previous video “just upload the last 20 minutes of the pod and no one gets hurt” got his wish lol 😂😂😂

[@heshamhany8470]

he also said 'please'...good manners go a long way.

I don't think I've ever seen Conan's face contort like that lol. This was hysterical.
