Conan Learns About A Star Trek-Themed Town In Canada | Conan O’Brien Needs a Fan
Jill where are you where are you right. now in the world in the world in the. world yeah yeah a farm doesn't narrow it. down too much but you're on a farm I. think I can do the rest no I actually. can't I have no idea where you're from. I'm just outside of Vulcan Alberta what. which is in Canada uh uh the town is. called Vulcan the town is called Vulcan. yes it's in Southern Alberta Southern. Alberta okay and tell us about the town. of Vulcan paint a picture for us would. you so there's about 2 000 people.
um and I don't know if you guys are Star. Trek fans but the town is kind of taking. on the Star Trek theme wait as in the. Vulcans that are on Star Trek wait a. minute I don't understand what you're. saying so I just thought it's just a. town called Vulcan and uh of course. Vulcan goes back to ancient mythology uh. so it doesn't necessarily have to I mean. I'd be a if I said oh like Star. Trek but then you turns out you're. telling me that the town is leaning into.
it right and it has a Star Trek theme. yeah so there's a Starship Enterprise as. you're going like through town like a. giant statue yeah is everybody. emotionless and very logical there. a lot of people who live here think it's. weird but. I didn't grow up here my husband did. they hosted in a communal decision yeah. everybody was like yeah let's do a Star. Trek thing yeah I mean to be honest with. you I'm from Kirk Massachusetts and we.
didn't do any we didn't lean into this. at all you guys are from Vulcan and you. lost your mind when you say there's a. statue of the USS Enterprise you mean. like yeah there's a how big is this. thing how big are we talking like huge. like maybe it's I don't know like 30. feet across like it's it's amazing yeah. do people there's a trek Center in town. like they'll host um they have Spock. days in the summertime what's a trexon. and people will like it's like a Star. Trek Museum like they have a few.
costumes from the show wait a minute. well like I'm sorry well they say. they're costumes from the show but. they're just costumes okay they're. probably first of all yeah trust me. Spirit Halloween store yeah exactly. don't don't don't ask too many questions. about those costumes this is. unbelievable to me that a town has. surrendered its dignity like this this. is I mean this is absolutely incredible. yeah so they have a Spock days in town.
so there'll be Klingons you know walking. down the street and but also there's a. rodeo at the same time so there'll be. Klingons and cowboys like passing each. other what is this but wait a minute so. so there'll be Klingons walking down the. street but also Cowboys but also random. spots now we know that stocks and. Klingons don't get along so that's like. yeah we know that yeah Cowboys and. Klingons get along actually uh Cowboys. and Klingons probably yeah really yeah. yeah.
um that would make sense. oh that I know that yeah yeah they've. got that uh bumpy brow. the old bumpy brow so Jill this is. fascinating to me. yeah so Jill you you live here and you. you live there happily do you ever get I. would think people would just get tired. of look at me I'm Spock yeah it's. Thursday enough with the Star Trek you. know or is it or is it okay I don't know. I feel like nobody talks about it and I.
honestly know nothing about Star Trek so. it's kind of weird but I just moved here. because my husband grew up here and. just yeah it's it is what it is yeah. well you must really you know what I. gotta say you must really love your. husband that's what's nice I do is that. I do yeah he invited you to basically. join him in a child's bedroom uh yeah. and called it a town. and now it's like you're imprisoned on. the hollow deck or something oh god well.
I you know I debated whether I should. say that yeah no you did to us you don't. I did you know what you know what I I. think whenever you say you debated. whether you should say something or not. you always say it never once have you. not said it and I do apologize. well okay so we know now we have a. picture boy do I have a picture of where. you live and I'll be coming to Vulcan I. want you to tell the people I'll be. coming you should bring schlansky here. and do like uh he can go through the. Star Trek Museum and oh my God actually.
yeah that's kind of a cool idea right. there's only one flaw I'd have to travel. with Jordan shlansky ah yes the most. annoying person I've ever met.
