This is Dave from the episode. Big thanks to Conan, Sona, Matt, and all Team Coco behind the scenes for being so welcoming and making this such a fun experience. 🤘

[@davidhurtado2725]

I am imploring to life that there's a "Conan O'Brien Must Go: To Ireland" in the works and they came to see you guys

[@koreanpathfinder]

How did your wife react to you throwing her under the bus?😆

[@fakenamemusic]

@@koreanpathfinder Honestly, we laughed so much we had to keep pausing the episode. 😄

[@christinah864]

You were a great guest!

[@angelpipessd]

Hey sir! You were great on the show! And I checked out the music on your channel - this one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2THoqOonspoq9k The song has an Awesome beat and really cool vocoder sounds. Do you have a Spotify channel or website to hear more of your music? And how did you submit yourself to get onto the show?

[@ratgpt]

We need her on the show

[@nyamheria]

As fast as possible

[@francescaa8331]

Yes, right away.

[@jkap34]

There's been a lot of guests from Ireland, so I'm thinking he's going to Ireland once the strike is over for his max show. It happened with Thailand and Norway.

[@paulflack5033]

He’s guaranteed that Conan will show up on their doorstep.

[@culwin]

...with Jordan Schlansky

[@colinmclaughlin9047]

Gourley hiding, Conan in shock, and Sona in tears living her best day. 🤣

[@utubeSome]

Right??😂

[@ColinFilm]

Coming soon to Max: Conan O'Brien Must Go... to Dave's House for Clare's Approval. 😂

[@tyrannosaurus_x]

I sure hope Dave is chosen as one of the people for Conan's new show.

[@alphabrainwave]

Featuring Jordan Schlansky

[@dlxmarks]

Very bummed that it didn't happen for them in the Ireland episode.

[@RobinChakravarty]

"I've got to convince her that I am not needy" is a real catch-22.

[@kstepko]

Poor Dave! He had waited for this moment for so long, but all Conan wants to talk about is why Claire doesn’t like him.

[@fakenamemusic]

I had *no* idea it was gonna take that turn 😅

[@lauristonbrewster9097]

2:54 OMG his face! This makes it 1000x funnier

[@francescaa8331]

Lol

[@LycanLink]

I know Conan's just doing it for the bit, but I 100% agree. If she doesn't like Conan, we're through.

[@GwenActually]

Huge red flag. I spent 12 years with a partner who didn't care for Conan but liked Craig Ferguson. Biggest mistake of my youth.

[@joeyisabsb1]

I dont think not liking Conan would be the immediate deal breaker but, in all honesty, it might be a hint that your sense of humor may not align. That def would make me wary a little as if we can't make the same kinds of jokes together then maybe it won't work out. That being said I've been in a relationship for 10 years and my gf doesn't like all the same comedians as I do but I still find her to be one or the most funny women I've met so there's not a direct correlation between liking the same comedians and not having a good sense of humor.

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

@@GwenActually Craig is not a bad "like," though. I discovered his late night show over the writer's strike these past five months and i'm addicted. he's hilarious and sometimes even brings up Conan

[@lachauntiswashington231]

Conan's neediness is what makes him so hilarious. I really want to see more chill chums by the fire. next time it could be at Conan or Sona's house.

[@davidhurtado2725]

It is coming! They announced it in the Kelly Clarkson episode

[@xXFRESH510Xx]

They left out the best part where they practice a pretend scenario of meeting her lol

[@thisisalsofine]

Yes, we need that video uploaded!

[@adelwijnt249]

Oh yeah, Conan is going to Ireland now.

[@RJHart1214]

"She finds that I'm gonna say repellent." Incredibly funny. Conan's face as his fan enumerates the possible reasons for his wife disliking Conan is priceless. Dave's fulsome compliments seem increasingly backhanded as he then offers his wife's perspective. The use of the word "desperate" is especially choice. Conan opens up a new shaft in the comedy goldmine, even as Dave's wife gives Conan the shaft via Dave. And then there's Sona's reaction. Pure joy!

[@HeroicHaroon]

Good God, thanks professor

[@RJHart1214]

@@HeroicHaroon Heh. You're welcome.

[@evenflowsteven]

I shed one tear for Conan after watching this.

[@LinkRocks]

I think it legit hurt Conan that that fan's wife likes Jordan but doesn't like him. Lol I can't wait until she's on.

[@Baqota]

Matt’s body language tells me he is soooo uncomfortable with this whole conversation. The way he had that pillow in his lap like it can shield him from how uncomfortable he is 😂

[@imallfordabulls]

That’s a security pillow if I’ve ever seen one

[@greenjacketman9321]

Nah he's just high as kite. They established that at the beginning of the episode 😂

[@danielchae1452]

Matt is a producer on the show so the guests have to go through him first. Pretty sure he wasn't expecting this turn of events.

[@pixycamille]

I feel so bad for Conan at 2:56 and his deep sigh at 3:08 😢 but I also couldn't stop laughing at this episode 🤣. We're not Claire, Conan, but we love you. 🧡

[@litpen8056]

if you want conan following you, hate him

[@headlight31]

The guy, although a huge fan, is honestly brutal and so accurate on what Conan's comedy is like. Damn😅

[@smitty347]

... "animals"

[@byHexted]

If there’s one thing Conan can not STAND it’s someone not liking him

[@LMarti13]

Conan is obviously needy but it's pretty weird for someone to dislike that. It's like disliking the disabled.

[@Lovelyjustlikehavingtalks]

The way you say it 😂😂😂, it true tough he is crazy quite LITERALY 😅

[@ConanThreepwood]

that one time Conan said he told a girl: "but... most people want a selfie" I found that super annoying haha but yeah he is needy

Conan's heartbroken face 🤣🤣🤣

[@jayrock2288]

This is probably my favorite fan lol

[@bagasaperdana]

I've been listening on Spotify for a while and haven't watched the KZbin videos. Man, Conan looks really good on this video. He looks young and ravishing with that denim jacket with the rolled up sleeves.

[@franciet99]

Dave broke the Chill Chums! 🥹

[@kurtangle83]

The only thing missing would have been if he mentioned that his wife was more of a Leno fan ;)

[@ConnbineHarvester]

Poor Conan struggling to use the word eejit because he doesn't use it enough, I'm from Ireland, I discovered Conans remotes during the start of the pandemic, I'm a fan ever since!

[@gfrutherford]

Conan has always been my favorite "late night" talk show host. But apparently not everyone feels the same. It's all good.

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

and that "everyone" has a name: Claire. ⛈

[@tyrannosaurus_x]

Oh boy do I hope Conan visited this guy for his new show.

[@divisiona3974]

This couple better be on Conan must go!!!

[@kaushikdr]

I honestly can't understand someone who is fascinated by Jordan Schlansky and doesn't like Conan. Sure, I can see that Conan's humor can sometimes be a way to get attention for himself, but his genuinity about it and his not trying to hide who he is is what makes me love him. Don't worry Conan, as long as Jordan is in a different tent, I would say we are doing great :)

[@TheycallmeMrWonka]

You're basically saying you don't get that different people like different things. I mean, in life is that your attitude? Or is this a Conan specific thing. I find it weird that people who like Conan are so intolerant and unbelieving that others don't think that way 🤷‍♂️. That's not just you Im talking about, I notice it in comments as well, it's almost like a cult of Conan mentality at times.

[@kaushikdr]

@@TheycallmeMrWonka That's a fair point haha and I am not sure this was a hill I was willing to die on :) I just personally have never understood people's fascination with Jordan Schlansky. I don't expect everyone to like the same things as me and I understand people can be different. But Jordan just annoys me to my core and it is strange to understand why people like him. For most issues I would say that I can usually see a pro and a con. But now that you mention that, I feel like the kind of thinking that I may have been guilty of is very prominent in religious circles. I feel like the positive effects of their beliefs are rooted in the fact that God exists. And if God doesn't exist, then their interpretation of their experiences to this point are false. Would you say this is problematic?

[@Marshall_Stacks]

@@kaushikdr Jordan SUCKS. I don't get it. Likely the most annoying person alive.

[@Davett53]

My wife does not like Conan either. She didn't like him from the first time he became a late night talk show host. All the years I watched Conan on TV, she'd run out the room, as soon as it was on. I sometimes had to hide that I was watching him and laughing. If she heard his voice from another room, she yell something like: "you're not watching that jerk, are you"?! I'd quickly turn the volume down, and pretend I'd turned the TV off.

[@andreachung396]

Damn why did you marry her??

[@Davett53]

@@andreachung396 She laughed at my jokes, and we got together way before Conan came on the air. But I have to say after almost 40 years together,....she doesn't find me a bit funny anymore. And that's a bummer,.....I loved cracking her up, and we both giggle until we couldn't catch our breaths. Now I am happy when we are just civil to each other.

[@vt4979]

Aww I hope you guys can find laughter in each other more often!

[@MrxPx91]

@3:37 RIP Sona she lived a good life. Also I now really can't wait for new show.

[@Youdoyouyeah]

If you’re a humble, secure human being that can appreciate self-deprecating humour then Conan will always be a fountain of joy for you 😊

[@ct6852]

Lol. This legit seems like an Irish thing sometimes. They say probably the meanest thing they can think of, perfectly catered to someone's innate needs and insecurities...then act shocked when it brings down the room.

[@TheycallmeMrWonka]

I like this, this is honesty. Conan's not for everyone, no one is. I dislike the blowing smoke up peoples arses stuff that happens alot. You dont need to be rude but you can be honest.

[@sojournersunrise2290]

gotta love when Conan gets mad and drops an f bomb^.^

[@Sadc0m]

Oh my god, this man demolished Cone's self-esteem by proxy xD

[@geekimusprime]

I don’t know if they do any background before the interview, but what a comedy landmine they step into just from Conan asking if Claire listens to the podcast as well.

[@Baegitte]

I remember watching Conan for the first time in the late 90s as a kid. Idk what kept me watching… I usually watched Leno/letterman and then went off to play LEGOs til I fell asleep… wish I remembered what I saw that made me a cone bone 🦴

[@Afaustianbargainbin]

Maybe one of the skits, for me one of the early bits I remember liking as a kid was “in yeaaaaar twooo thooouuusand” news from the future

[@Baegitte]

@@Afaustianbargainbin for me, probably the skits where he talks to a celebrity with their mouths replaced by some dood backstage lol

[@duffduffington843]

Later that night, Conan appears outside Claire's bedroom window. He's holding a boom box over his head while blasting some of his old comedy bits.

[@imallfordabulls]

It’s like that one episode of Seinfeld where George tries to befriend Jerry’s girlfriend but can’t.

A salesman much more experienced than me once told me (when I was 17 years old) "10% of people will like you for who you are, another 10% will not like you for the same reasons, it's the other 80% you have to convince. There you go Conan, let it be.

[@saudalfaris9588]

[@makeadifference4all]

Conan can be polarizing, but not because he's offensive, edgy, or political. People think he's hilarious or an annoying clown. There's not much in-between. That's one reason he had trouble transitioning to the more mainstream "Tonight Show" platform when the 11:35 timeslot was less fragmented and required a "big-tent" host that turned off the fewest people. Personally, I think Conan is a national treasure and one of the all-time great talk-show hosts. By the way, Letterman's quirkiness and aloofness created similar problems for him when he moved to 11:35.

[@shimmerbay]

Claire has bad taste in comedy if she prefers Jordan over Conan.

[@bfgivmfith]

Bros before Hoes! LOL! So Funny! I appreciate your podcast even more than your time on Late Night. And I loved that! But this forum allows more honesty! No "Applause" Light! No canned Laughter! I do not need to be told when to laugh, you and those you surround yourself with do that naturally, and regularly! Thank You! :)
