I need the 2nd part of this video when Conan starts comparing the struggle Taylor went through with her mom's death with him still flying comercial hahaha that's gold

[@starxhilmie]

thats not funny part, more like nightmare

[@jeffreyesguitar5129]

The best part of that bit.

[@sahityabk]

Lol absolutely, i had stop wat I was doing wen he started going off on that

[@yashaleo7]

Yes!

[@shridharambady2069]

"My mom left the Earth, and you had a tough night at the Waldorf with an old man"

[@darryl2542]

I love that they both embrace dark humor and keep digging further into the joke, seeing who can be bleakest.

[@jv-lk7bc]

race to the dark side

[@goober4502]

I love that they kept the coffee adjustment in. One of Conan’s strengths is that he can make blunders and hiccups like this into a good bit.

[@jennhoff03]

So true! Some of his best moments are guests cancelling or technical difficulties or things going wrong.

[@Heroic113]

What makes it even funnier is that Conan called this out in an earlier podcast about having icy drinks on the show and interrupting a traumatic moment HAHA

[@AkiroKiro]

Yes! I swear to god that's what i expected to happen, Conan remembering that "guest tells story about dead mum while you clank and swish away" bit and calling poor Taylor out in the middle of her pouring her heart out... Somehow somebody else doing it non-verbally is even funnier and crueler. What a great moment either way, such a fine line they all threaded there. Perfect.

[@davidhurtado2725]

Every week I kept waiting to see who was it they were talking about. It was worth the wait.

[@zzzzzz3708]

Ya it was Slash too lol

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

It was so funny how it's built up to this. They talked about it "on air" and then obviously they had a production meeting and I guess told the crew to actually take care of it from now on I think? We'll have to see where this goes!

[@allisonharranmua8193]

I love Taylor so much. Her ability to make anything humorous in the moment, the way she is totally comfortable just bouncing back and forth with Connan who is a comedy legend and someone she admits to looking up to all at 26. She is going to go really far.

[@philippegauvin-vallee9371]

She is a skilled improviser. She can discuss with an audience member in the middle of a show and turn it into a good bit.

[@kaceyd66]

My dad died when I was a kid and I relate to what Taylor said a lot, constantly looking for approval from this person that doesn't exist anymore, and when I do succeed it's bitter sweet because my dad will never be there to see it. Love hearing that I'm not the only one that feels that lol, also love Taylor and her humour 👍

[@psistarpsi80]

Same.

[@tracygaluszynski1868]

Yes, you are not alone.

[@therabbithat]

It's a way to feel an interaction with them, for lack of a better word. You've done something they would have reacted to, the non-reaction somehow feels like something, not nothing

[@dwells37]

I never had my dad's approval in life, I'm certainly not getting it now that he's gone.

[@jv-lk7bc]

also a childhood survivor. Fully agree w/Tomlinson. I feel the "if only he were here to see" and also the "maybe i wouldn't be doing this".. hard to overestimate the impact of that. it changed everyting about me. became one of the bedrocks of my identity. Iliterally don't know who I'd be otherwise. Look at a tree whose trunk was broken off at a weird angle 2 feet above the ground, and it survived and grew back. come back 30 years later and try to imagine how it would look if that hadn't happened...

[@alexislapuz687]

Holy cow, she articulated so well what its like to live with the los of a parent/primary caregiver at a young age. I lost my mom at 12. Its true every milestone is bittersweet. Kind of a constant state of adjusting to cope around that grief

[@mrdaym]

So it's like a wound that never heals at all? That sucks.

[@cloudkitt]

This segment just kept getting funnier and funnier, I thought Sona might pass out. XD It would be fun to see the room like in that last wide shot while Taylor and Conan continued to riff off each other.

she most definitely didn't say or even imply that it wasn't. all she was stating was *different* career path.

[@tvtitlechampion3238]

Oh, so dramatic. Use that emotion to fill the scene!

[@jv-lk7bc]

apparently good enough for Taylor-with-a-mom

[@RageDG391]

Taylor has such an iconic and recognizable voice that blends well with her comedy.

[@Lerppunen]

Her voice reminds of Elizabeth Holmes’ fake voice.

[@patreekotime4578]

Perfect for deadpan delivery!

[@Seabeams]

When I heard it on the podcast I thought they had moved the glass just slightly out of the way so she would avoid knocking it over and she was just playing it up for the laughs, but Adam really placed it far enough that it’s like he took Conan’s “I can’t control the guest” statement as a personal challenge.

[@exaen]

Taylor and Conan resonate so well!

[@aegresen]

Seriously, I think she could take over Conan in the future. They have such a similar sense of humour.

[@RuthwikRao]

@@aegresen in some sense, her getting to be a late nigh host now after Colbert is pretty much a prophecy come true, she has the right combination of charisma, quick wit, and incredible knack at reading people emotionally, which will ensure she maintains that chemistry with any guest that's thrown at her. I really hope she succeeds! Not many do, but I cannot think of a single reason why she cannot become the next Conan.

[@JoeVinceF]

I think one of the greatest compliments in this is when they are riffing back and forth, the Taylor makes her joke about Quarterbacks and callbacks, Conan stops the improv momentarily to compliment her on that joke

[@davidhurtado2725]

It's a shame they left the we suffered equally part. "I always think: what is the worst possible thing I can say?" - Conan O'brien.

[@gregbester3855]

I love how Sona is just sitting back watching the show and laughing her ass off. And Taylor is so cool! The vibe here is on fire lol.

[@jasonericson3744]

Man, they really struggle with iced drinks on this show huh

[@jliller]

Loss is heavy. Either it pulls you down like a stone sinking in water, or you use it propel you forward like a spaceship slingshoting around a planet.

[@nerdipedia1142]

How is Taylor so funny every time I watch her? And to have Conan and Taylor in a video together is a guaranteed good time!!

[@LycanLink]

My mom passed away in 1992, when I was seven, and it definitely shaped my life. I grew up afraid anything could kill me. I quit my swimming class, I stopped going outside, and to this day, I have still never tried smoking, drinking, or any drugs whatsoever. I'm super shy around all manner of people, and it's very difficult to get me to try anything new. I also am afraid to buy a pet, because I dread the inevitable farewell.

[@Danny...]

The pet part is real. Don't do it, it sucks when they die. You should get help for the rest of it though. Life is too short to worry about that stuff. Nothing wrong with getting help. Good luck.

[@AndreaC_303]

She is SO FUNNY! Her massive success makes me so happy. Go get ‘em Taylor!

[@cdawg_sf]

Sona is the best laugh track

[@KimberlyComedian]

I love Taylor! And Conan obvs! But I think it’s important that comedians talk about mental health. Because as an audience member you sometimes wonder how are comedians so happy? I wish I could be as happy as them. And then you realize that comedians are actually results of depression. So now when I get depressed I watch an open mic to cheer me up for the jokes. And now I started going on stage myself because making jokes is the only thing that keeps me from crying. RIP Richard Jeni. The signs were there.

[@zoperxplex]

More proof that Conan is mounting an offensive into the AMSR market.

[@stephenoshaughnessy2279]

Taylor is very grounded and funny. It's evident why Stephen Colbert picked her for the new show.

[@steveg4082]

Conan is such a professional. He stayed with hushed tones with the iced coffee even though he could have gone full Glen Garry Glen Ross 📢 .

[@psycold]

Most of my friends who had a really difficult childhood did not necessarily become more successful, but they do handle life WAY better than people like me who have had it good. I've avoided conflict to an insane degree which has prevented me from doing so many things with my life. It's absolutely true that it's our disappointments, our tragedies, and our failings that shape us. Nobody becomes a better person by winning.
