Conan Misses Decorating His House For The Holidays | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

you know we're getting into the holiday. seasons yeah we are and uh I have a. question for you because this is. something that hit me recently I don't. often reveal my interior life my. emotions but I'm going to get vulnerable. here for a moment as you guys know I'm. an empty nester now my both my kids are. in school you're also An Empty Soul guy. too yeah Empty Soul yeah yeah but that's. been you know whole life uh but my you. know it's I didn't expect to feel this. way but I remember feeling this way at. Halloween I walked by some houses and.

they were all decked out with you know. skeletons and witches and things like. that and one of them had there's this. spider that plops down if it senses a. presence have you seen that when it just. goes it makes a little noise and its. eyes light up a little bit and I just. had this really strong memory of my kids. watching me put all that stuff out and. being really excited and saying where's. the spider and me going and getting you. know there's the you can get the fake. Gray and you can get the the skeleton.

hand that comes out of the ground and I. I would my excitement came from their. excitement of watching me do it and um. you know they're not they're in college. now and so we're not doing that to our. house and then I walked around and I had. that Pang of it made me sad you know. what I mean I had a moment of um oh. that's that's done that's over I'm I. like not decorating I'm not a decorator. and now I have to cuz I have boys my.

boys and I'm just like come on oh really. it's fun I got to go get a. web got to get a web and like a spider. and stuff no I don't want to do that. also where are you going to put all of. it there's just so much storage you're a. terrible person it's not even that it's. just ex do you like you like it you. can't like it we're big decorators for. holidays but I will say that when we had. free time before Glenn it was so much. easier now it's harder to decorate cuz.

we don't have time and energy we still. do it but and we go big we go pretty big. are you that house on the Block I. wouldn't say were that house were of. those. houses okay. so those houses yeah why would we drive. around a lot of houses in Altadena do it. and some of them like they'll let people. into their houses and they do a they. they go all out well there are I mean. this is something that blew my mind cuz. I grew up in you know suburb of Boston.

and I think a fairly normal street and. people would put out Christmas. decorations or Halloween decorations and. then much later in my life and but but. nothing that crazy literally just a. string of lights here and there my. brother Neil was the one that really. went for it he found in a junkyard a. giant light up Santa and without my. parents permission he lit it up and hung. in on the front of our house my parents. were very like tasteful people and they. were freaked out and it was like you.

know and I think it also it ran on some. you know now now or even then outlawed. gas it was from like the 20s I think. real Flames came out of the Santa it was. just and it shot Asbestos and viruses. around I think it polio it had Polio in. it it carried a candy canes made of. polio anyway uh any the point being that. I then got out to LA after not seeing. much and there are these streets here in.

La where set designers live there. affluent people that make movie sets and. they'll spend months and they'll bring. in Union. Crews and you'll see this Insanity yeah. and you can't believe it and I think oh. we just plugged in some. [Laughter]. candles I like people who decorate their. house for holidays they shouldn't. decorate for what do you mean like why. why isn't there like a big Valentine's.

Day thing outside your house or a big St. Patrick's Day thing or like you know. well some people go I don't know some. people go big on St Patrick's Day as an. Irish person I don't like St Patrick's. Day I think it's I'm just you know I'm. self-loathing Irish so when a bunch of. Irish people run around hitting each. over the head with green. beer and saying Saints borus I'm not. having it and they're always like one. one 15th Irish so you know when someone. from the Czech Republic is saying.

go you know I'm not having it would did. you ever wear a shirt that said Kiss Me. I'm Irish ever in your life ever in your. life did you ever wear a shirt that just. said please kiss me yeah well into my. late 30s okay please hold me I think it. said that's even sadder please affirm my. masculinity I had a shirt that I wore. for 35 years that was oh to feel a. woman's touch. but O Apostrophe oh yeah O Apostrophe oh.
