Patton Oswalt stand-up

[@IanKoranek]

Doing a little detective work, I found out this episode aired April 26, 2001. So the "2002?" guess from the description is only slightly off. I solved a mystery that absolutely nobody but me cared about.

[@allanfloyd8103]

+Ian Koranek (slow clap) ;)

[@makeit7579]

I care.

[@RogersCadenhead]

I prayed there would be an answer to this question in the comments. Miracles do happen.

[@makeit7579]

not really

[@MrCyberboobs]

Nice

[@IanKoranek]

I can't believe I found this! I was barely breathing and in tears the first time I watched this. This is the set that made me Patton Oswalt's fan for life.

[@Ultracity6060]

Ian Koranek To this day, in any game where you can name weapons, I name my sword Gary Blevins.

[@janerecluse4344]

The best thing about his British accent is that when he makes the 'bureau' face, he looks exactly like Eddie Izzard.

[@TheOriginalMaxGForce]

Pause it at 5:27 It looks like Conan is standing next to a Make-A-Wish kid.

[@dkennell998]

I was drinking from a cup of water and when he said "Greater even than the gift of LIFE!!!" I choked and started coughing all over the place. Lol.

[@tha1ne]

Man, even back then Patton Oswalt was the SHIZ.

[@hollandoates961]

Patton and Conan side by side for some reason reminds me of Batman and Robin. The Adventures of Gingerman and Trollboy, this Fall on CBS.

[@mc76]

On the trail of Half-Pubes.

[@murfmeef]

Approaching the camera made that line way funnier. That was a brilliant touch

[@41-Haiku]

Oh my goodness. What a blast from the past.

[@BrianKishreviews]

1:20 "summarize proust" a definite monty python reference! (as someone already pointed out...)

[@Toolsquatch]

Oh shit, it's the Gary Blevins joke!

[@DanGolag]

I'd watch the shit out of the adventures of Crystal, Michael Tanner and the Skaters.

[@rogaface]

Wow that's quite a height difference

[@EKDupre]

I can't believe, but yet totally can believe that Oswalt referenced the Planck constant in a bit. I fucking love him.

[@funnywhiteroots]

Im sure it was his bit first, and the producers of KOQ liked it so much that they worked it into the show.

[@TayTay099]

David Cross and Patton Oswalt have worked and toured together quite frequently and have similar styles of telling jokes. KZbin is so clever at suggesting things!

[@TeamNutshell]

Kneel before me. I wield GARY BLEVANS!

[@Garrickan]

Oh my god that Michael Tanner bit. Tears streaming down my face

[@eliotmccann2589]

Genius!

[@NHerbst112]

Patton snuck an ultima 6 reverence with gary blevins. now you'll never play the same again :p

[@fatmikecj]

Solve plancks constant? It's a constant, what do you mean solve it?

[@nurb101]

My VCR can record shows permanently. Can your Tivo do THAT? HUH?

[@drs4983]

GARY BLEVINS!

[@orlandrake]

Been looking for this clip for ages.

[@ALCvideoprofile]

I kinda like that idea of a badass sword named Garry Blevans!

[@zacharywebber89]

genius. genius. genius. genius. genius. genius. genius. genius. genius. genius.

[@dovegrey1]

"A bag of crisps" XD

[@robotzorro]

Mustard Fart Station? No Tivo! Bad Tivo!

[@CeruleanFilms]

Up to the magic horse part, that movie pitch is almost exactly like the first movie I made with my friends in high school.

[@ElectricPid]

Wow, really cool to see this clip. Patton talked about how after he did the "Michael Tanner" bit, the actual Michael Tanner called him. It's hilarious, I think it was on a bootleg. P.S. Conan is TALL!

[@jladimirceroline4535]

Rat Biter do you know which one? I'm lookin for it all over the place.

[@jonathantanner1788]

My dad is the Real Michael Tanner who called him. I'm looking for that clip! :)

[@noahsianez1119]

Kind of a shame he had to dumb down his Tivo story just for tv. Its funnier when he really gets into it.

[@AndyHoward]

The thing is minus the swearing this is how he Tivo story goes (just watched a bootleg of Live in Minneapolis set and the Tivo story was exactly the same

[@TheBlastmeister]

holy shit conan's tall!!

[@Thagros]

Patton Oswalt is so fucking cool.

[@geoffpecar]

@AntiFaithNY the only time ive heard of Proust in flying circus is when john cleese (in "fish licence") says "Marcel Proust had an haddock! if youre calling the author of A la recherche du temps perdu a looney, i'll have to ask you to step outside!" its a reference...

[@tomitstube]

dude is hilarious.

[@ElPayasoMalo]

Dude, I thought Conan was gonna eat him!

[@dj69918]

I must acquire Gary Blevins.

[@Fetor]

ohhhh. thats where dane cook got that bit.

[@johnbrownlee5419]

When did this air?

[@351cleavland]

Hey! I want to set this straight once and for all! My name is Gary Blevins and I am proud! Proud! Proud! Proud! And I work at a 7 eleven.

[@NobodyNowhereKnowhow]

351cleavland Then I will acquire you so that I may lay waste to Crystal and Michael Tanner so that all may live in harmony with crisps and Tivo for all!

[@8bly11]

holy shit! I know Gary Blevins!

[@WalterLiddy]

I love British game shows.

[@m.o.cfitnessrolemodels3642]

wow, youtube just recommended a 14 yrs old upload

[@harry426]

2:32 Is he talking about the Black Sword from Ultima?

[@wockynerd]

Man, if I were Patton Oswalt, I'd be pretty pissed off to have to stand next to Conan O'Brien.

[@OpEditorial]

Patton kind of brings up an uncomfortable mental image of the Batman villain "2 Face" in this set 🤔

[@blazerocker1734]

In a fight to the death my money is on Ol' Halfpubes.

[@ralphyetmore]

Haha! I've found you Patton! Very clever name. "Zangdoodle" indeed.

[@TheFluffyViking]

It makes it even better that it is Conan O' Brien :3

[@theungreatkahli]

No, Tivo No!

[@aca28833]

No TEVO, NO! Bad TEVO! lol

[@NobodyNowhereKnowhow]

aca28833 *Tivo

[@LughSummerson]

NobodyNowhereKnowhow *TiVo

[@ajackson5955]

Mustard Fart Station?

[@rapsody123]

@AntiFaithNY The joke isn't from Monty Python, the joke is a reference to Monty Python.

[@quesondriac]

Patton Oswalt looks like Frodo. He is so short.

[@SANTARII]

His English accent, at least near the beginning, sounds like Eddie Izzard.

[@GregLynn]

Summarize Proust: MONTY PYTHON REFERENCE!!!!

[@FarfilicusStarship]

Old Half-Pubes

[@dreadred92]

@diverseent Swell, I'll look him up for sure.

[@ZPM7]

There's no way the description's date is right. No one would wear that shirt in 2002.

[@v4lkyr]

does he work for TiVo?

[@makeit7579]

Explains it.

[@Hoganply]

Both.

[@MalachorWraith]

Fucking win!

[@UpperCrustthe3rd]

yesss

[@Howardar7]

probably 2000 (olympic rings)

[@diverseent]

@dreadred92 lewis black over? george carlin? or sam kinison? hmmm

[@dreadred92]

@aaronbrakefield Lewis Black, just my opinion of course.

[@dreadred92]

@diverseent Like I said, this is just my opinion, Carlin is my third fave easy. Kinison is also damn good, I never got into his style though. I would probably put Pryor over Kinison anyway.

[@Sabohaque]

Patton bombs all the time but I still love his jokes

[@EmpLaun]

No he tried to, but they wouldnt let him

[@thereisnocontenthere]

Summarize Proust! Hahaha

[@MouseX1000]

holy shit is he really short or is Conan really tall?!??!?!? XD funny either way!

[@diverseent]

@dreadred92 well pryor was a great comedian actor but paul mooney wrote all his stuff thats why i ask. paul mooney is a genius.

[@ricaard]

Holy crap, he's short.

[@saverivers]

@ElectricPid: I met Patton once. He is SHORT!

[@TheStefan6969]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@dreadred92]

Pretty bad crowd, they don't understand he is the second funniest comedian alive.

[@diverseent]

@dreadred92 thats fine and im not attacking you over your opinion im just saying..... really? i find it hard to believe thats all . and when you say pryor you mean paul mooney correct?

[@Zangdoodle]

WOW its like a fire giant next to a lesbian dwarf

[@randywoods67]

Oswalt's obviously a comedy god, now, so I guess it's water under the bridge, since he was relatively new back then... But did he really think he could rip off "summarize Proust" from Monty Python and get away with it? He's far too smart and has too much nerd-cred to stoop to that hacky level... No, Patton, NO!... Bad Patton!

[@JivemasterJ]

@rapsody stop kiddin yourself pal-o, who are you talking to if not yourself?

[@5tran9eMCMLXXII]

VHS!!!!!!!!

[@domvarsalone]

woah lol hes really short

[@apseudonym]

s m o l

[@dreadred92]

@pjperez Lewis Black in my opinion.

[@dreadred92]

@diverseent Hey I'm no expert, I just like what I like. No I mean Richard Pryor. :P

[@ephraimbantug322]

Sky cake...

[@customcartoons]

well I still wouldn't mess with gary blevins... just sayin o_O

[@lope306]

No tevo no!!

[@AndyHoward]

bureau.....

[@Robert-dv2ot]

Wow, like that he stole the pubic hair joke from Dave Attell

[@tho2ea]

Blevins is soooooo not a name of anyone ever.

[@FuckGoogle2]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninja_(streamer)

[@blazerocker1734]

Did someone watch 'Eraser' (1996)?

[@joysandy333]

He was funnier before Obama

[@kennygerberich4985]

Nah, he's only gotten funnier. You're not talking about comedy, you're talking about shitty feelings you have over a few opinions of somebody's that oppose your own.

[@10INTM]

Opening joke was WAY too hyperbolic for me to find even remotely amusing. Almost didn't stick around for the rest.

[@jap346]

I love Patton, but this is awful.

[@1974spr]

His clean material was sometimes too mundane. His over the top, vulgar stuff is funny and ridiculous. So I find it easier to get into.

[@gallowsgradient]

Mustard Fart Station?
