Liam Neeson Worked At A Guinness Bottling Plant | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

[@UberNeuman]

Liam Neeson can tell the story of being a forklift driver and make it seem like a James Bond film.

[@beardown6574]

Every audible book should be narrated by Liam. Just an all time captivating voice!

[@Paulafan5]

I'd love to hear him reading Dr. Seuss books. That would be amazing.

[@shirleymarchand5800]

Hes so engulfing

[@PikachuCuteCat]

What a voice... he can tell the most innocuous of stories and it still sounds like he is about to kill you!

[@ThroatGoatNancy]

You know that bedtime story thing McConnahey did? I want Liam to do one because I would listen to it every dang night when I get all comfy for beddy byes.

I can listen to a whole series of audiobooks by Liam. Dude's voice can literally cut through a block of ice like butter.

[@RJHart1214]

An Irishman having something to do with Guinness? The mind boggles! On a serious note, there's a sadness when Liam mentions his late wife.

[@dlxmarks]

I thought he might have been talking about an earlier marriage but I checked and his only one was to Natasha Richardson.

I love these two, they're still pretty humble after everything

[@shawnsmith4692]

That's the sign of a guy destined for success in life. Working the most boring job imaginable but somehow enjoys it enough to say he loves it. Every job I've ever had I hated so much, the only way I get through the day is by playing a game of trying not to look at the clock for as long as possible, and guessing what time it will be when I look again. Feels so good when more time has passed than you think.

[@RAIN-AGAIN]

Hey!! I thought I invented that game??🤣 But, seriously…. Having never finished college….. I would get job after dam job…. Get just enough incremental promotions…until the money’s not bad anymore………. Soooo, at that point….. it’s dumb to walk away…… lol For 40! YEARS!!! OF HAIR NETS AND RUBBER BOOTS!!…….. hated it…. Lol All I really wanted was to produce, star in, direct, and musically score all these screenplays and short stories I’ve written……lol Now that I’m retired…… I’m busy carving out some nice things in my home studio…. but…. It’s not a fast process……..and ….the world of movies and music has changed…. EVERYONE…..is putting out a “ Schindler’s List “from their freaking basement along with AWESOME music!!!….. competition seems endless….. lol But…… like these 2 brilliant men both agreed………. We ALL GET IMPOSTER’S SYNDROME….. lol ……… the trick is…… perfect your craft…… get it out there!! In the end…… it’s not about the “likes and eyeballs”…. If you’re a CONAN OR A LIAM…… You will inevitably….. rise the top!!! ……like bubbles…. In a good pint. 🍻 Soooo….. Shawn…..we never we give up!!! Cheers my dear!

[@intomnia3313]

I’ll do something similar when I’m walking uphill.

[@marksasahara1115]

What we're all dying to know is does Liam Neeson still have his forklift certification? I want to see him take a refresher course, maybe on the old type of forklift he used and then have him move some pallets. Maybe load a truck, or some shelves. Also loved when he did the "Not Worthy" bow.

[@louisselouisse4730]

[@Davett53]

My favorite part time job I had after college, was working for a company that manufactured Laxatives. They made and packaged Metamucil that grain-like product one mixes into water to aid in waste elimination. They also made glycerin suppositories,....all things that help you have an easy bowel movement. It was kind of fascinating.

[@DaveBoy]

Sounds like a job where you had to put up with a lot of crap. J/K thanks for sharing, cheers!

[@falxonPSN]

At a job like that, if you have a lot of stress, you can just let it flow right through you.

[@isthatatesla]

💩💩💩

[@isthatatesla]

What a $h!tty comment !

[@Davett53]

@@DaveBoy Funny story,.....the powdered Metamucil, was airborne, and the air in the factory was colored a tan-brown. Everyone was required to wear a face mask. The old timers, refused and were inhaling that powder, all day long. They'd spend their break time, reaming that crud out of their noses. I bet their lungs were full of that stuff. Laxative Lung.

[@ConnbineHarvester]

I was born in Holles Street. Most kids were bottle fed formula milk rather than breast fed when I was born in the 70's..The tradition was that Guinness portar was considered a good way to replace lost iron for new mothers. The Guinness people drink in pints is stout beet, portar is slightly different in that it has bubbles and has not got that creamy foamy head. The truth is most Irish women hate Guinness and it's extremely rare to see one drinking it. If you are in Ireland and you do see a woman drinking Guinness, they're more than 50% likely to be a tourist.

[@LindaC616]

Interesting when they started talking about their experience with Imposter Syndrome. It's amazing to me how common it is - that feeling that you don't really belong here, that you're going to get "found out". Anthony Hopkins too? Wow.

On the other hand, one time when I was eating at Hoolihans,™ a USA based chain of diners, and there was the broken neck to a beer bottle in my salad. I actually had it in my mouth and had to spit it out immediately, when my teeth clattered and crunched on the rather large glass shard. I should have made the biggest stink and yelled at someone,....but I was too timid. I quietly informed my server,....and my passive approach, only garnered me a new salad. No apology,....no one said my meal was "on the house" as a means of compensation,....nothing. I could have choked on the glass, or broke a tooth, and cut up my whole mouth.. Madness!

This is the difference between an Irish American and an actual Irish person. Conan acts like drinking Guinness is an identity, a personality trait.

[@pleappleappleap]

[@gerardodwyer5908]

Conan is hilarious. He still believes he's actually "Oirish". Not sure how old Conan is, or when he last visited Ireland (Europe's most dynamic pharma and tech hub), but all his depictions are strangely from the 1930s and 1940s. What is nice in this video is Liam Neeson being especially polite, not interrupting to correct Conan, but simply allowing him to enjoy his invented nostalgia moments and Quiet Man era fantasies.

I get what you're saying, but Conan actually had his DNA done, and he's something like 99%. More Irish genetically than some actual Irish!😅
