Jordan Peele Is Sick Of Watching Himself | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

[@bipnip]

There's something so raw and genuine that comes from Conan's interviews you dont get from anyone else. He's one of the best to ever do it.

[@TheycallmeMrWonka]

Then I need to ask if you watch many different interviewers?. I find these to be a bit 50/50 with the celebrity blowing smoke up asses kind of demeanor. There's a more corporate mindset he still has from years doing his show. I don't dislike these but if you look at these and see him as one of the most raw kind of podcast interviewers I feel that must be coming from a place of ignorance as there are so many deep dive interview podcasts around now.

key and peele is one of the funniest shows of all time.. Peele is such a great comedic actor

[@jammer3618]

Chappelle keeps saying, on effect, they "stole" his show. Perhaps, but he has little room to bitch given he ran off for nearly a decade.

[@christofferjenzen78]

That he actually says that (I don't know if he believes it) is pretty unbecoming. Both shows are sketch comedy,sure but Key and Peeles skits are more innovative and less meanspirited. Saying "Key and Peele did his show every night." Isn't really a reflection of the truth and the comedy they put out,Dave was very bitter.

I swear Jordan is actually doing a character right now.

[@davejones4946]

It honestly feels that he was not well. IDK. Maybe he had a huge poop on his butt. But seriously, I get worse than that when I'm tired. Maybe he's just tired, or going through something. It really feels like a very odd interview. He's not fully there.

[@nem0763]

I think he might just actually be like that. I watch lots of interviews of novelists, and in their company he wouldn't seem weird or off or anything. Just a very intelligent artist.

[@JTBCP]

Same…i could totally be wrong but his cadence seems to have changed since Key & Peele. He almost hangs on to every word.

[@kjohn5224]

Seems to be very literal, has a weird affectation and can't seem to go with the flow with jokes.

[@patreekotime4578]

Yall are weird. He is not the characters he has played.

[@DangerousDac]

Jordan Peele just seems like he knows he offended someone somewhere and is expecting them to yell at him out of the blue at any time. Such a strange affectation.

[@PersonalPariah]

The imposter syndrome is real.

[@ShouldHaveBeen]

He seems detached or like he feels the need to separate himself from the comedic version of himself that we've grown to know and love in order to be taken seriously or to be legitimate. I get this feeling when I see Childish Gambino as well. I love both of them, but there is something slightly off-putting about it.

Jordan Peele, after the success of Get Out, signed a massive deal with Universal to crank out movies and earn the shekels asap. Get Out was a decade long passion project for Peele, whereas Nope and Us were rushed messes. So it will be interesting to watch for his next project and see if he has another decent movie in him.

The collab we didn't deserve but needed 💙🔥

[@TheAdammantium]

Jordan seems more relaxed and reserved now as compared to his sketch comedy days where he is more outspoken and excitable. Perhaps the new role he has taken up, to be behind the camera rather than in front; and to be the creator rather than the created, gave him a different perspective to adjust the way he behaves now.

[@jammer3618]

When he's interviewed the role of Key becomes so clear.

[@patreekotime4578]

The comments aren't passing the vibe check. Yall are mad that an actor/comedian doesn't seem like exactly the same person as the characters he played? Maybe the guy who dedicated his life to art is a bit of a nerd. Maybe the guy who is directing films and was creating high concept sketch comedy for years is a bit aloof and pretentious. Maybe the guy who was into art and comedy instead of sports in highschool is a bit awkward. Maybe Conan comparing him to a known bigot and troll, and NOT letting it go created a bad atmosphere for him. Yall are the weird ones. With your weird expectations and weird judgements.

It really isn't such a bad thing, bro. Jordan seems aloof and somewhat depressed. I think these comments just show how people can have empathy for another human being when they're showing concerning behavior.

[@davejones4946]

I don't see anyone mad here. But it's hard for an interview with Conan to be that bad, this has nothing to do with a desire that the man is the same as the character. I wonder if Jordan has insecurities and issues similar to my own, I'd be 10 thousand times worse than him in that situation.

I feel like Conan did Jordan a disservice by bringing up Ricky Gervais like that. I'm a bit surprised Conan is so out of touch. You've got to ask yourself if he's surrounded by older comedians who resent young people and if he thinks it's normal to dismiss people's distaste for right wing "I'm being canceled" comics. He exposed Jordan to all these racist commentators and gave them ammo... Matt was so much more on the ball during this.

[@LexingtonB09]

Wow talk about jumping to conclusions and creating some story out of nothing to fit a completely imaginative narrative that YOU made up in your head . This quote alone… “you’ve got to ask yourself if he’s surrounded by older comedians who resent young people and if he think’s it’s normal to dismiss people’s distaste for right wing ‘I’m being cancelled comics.” HUH?? Where did you conjure up that idea? If you listened to his podcast regularly you would know how he surrounds himself with a mix of young comics and older comics. He thinks it’s important to listen to young people, he always has. He doesnt get into politics often but you can tell that he himself has a distaste for right wingness. So what if he hadn’t heard about the Ricky Gervais thing. 🤷‍♀️ I hadn’t heard that and i’m young myself! I hadn’t heard until Peele mentioned it and then i had to look it up. It’s not like it was front page news. Ricky Gervais is not the name he used to be 10 years ago. Back then maybe it would’ve been headline news. But Gervais is barely a footnote these days. So don’t go labelling people as “resentful of young people” simply because they don’t know the latest Ricky Gervais news. Most people don’t know their latest Gervais news these days, he’s nobody!

[@sadhbh4652]

​@@LexingtonB09I do listen to his podcast, that's why I'm surprised. There's no specific Gervais news, just the way he's been for a long time. Either Conan doesn't know, which is weird, or he doesn't care, which is sad.
