Conan Replaces Sona’s Favorite Jacket | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend
Uh, a number of episodes ago, we talked. about how you lost your beloved and I. think longterm. leather jacket. What? Well, weren't you. in a long-term relationship with this. leather jacket? I bought it and I wore. it a lot. Aren't you burying the lead, which is she lost her house? She lost. her house and her leather jacket was in. the house. This is the first I've heard. of that. Okay. Yeah. You're a real. sensitive guy. My house burned down. You. lo You lost your home in the Aladena. fire. Yes. And you are still living. You're living with your parents. Yes.
Okay. Well, we won't get into that too. much. There's some stress there, probably. It's okay. It's all good. I. love your mom. I love your dad. Okay. But your mom can be a bit much. Um Oh, wow. Oh, I'm going to clip it and show. her. Quoting you. Yeah. What? I I love. her. I don't know what to bother. What. did you say? I love her. Okay. And I was. quoting you and you said she You know, you and your mom clash sometimes. We We. do. You're two strong personalities. because you love each other very much. We I adore my mom, but we have a. generational divide and a.
a a cultural divide. There you go. So, anyway, house burns down. Yes. And among. the things you lost was the leather. jacket you've been wearing since the day. I met you. Yeah. You've had that jacket. forever. And sometimes I would kid you. about the jacket because you would wear. it every day. You wouldn't mix it up too. much. Okay. Um I loved that jacket. Yeah. I'm sorry it went. And what did I. do? you. What did I do? I don't I. forget. I forget what I did. Okay, then. I guess we have nothing else to talk.
about. Oh, okay. Well, okay. So, it's. still they still make this jacket and I. found it and you very generously offered. to buy me a new one. So, I went with. your credit card, which I have, and I I. know bought a new jacket for myself. I. got an alert. Yeah. That this uh they. were very suspicious of you using my. card. Okay. Yeah. And then uh but then I. realized what I did was I just bought. you like ammo for me. Yes. And that's.
not that I don't know why I did that. That's why he did it in the first place. I There was a jacket I made fun of and. then it was lost in this tragic fire and. I needed the jacket replaced immediately. so I could make fun of the jacket. So I. could make fun of the jacket. Ironic cuz. you're sitting here in a leather jacket. Yeah. Yeah. It's like I'm sitting with. Mad Max and the Red Baron right now. This is amazing. It's not. The problem. is not that it's a leather jacket. I. love leather jackets. It's just that she. only wore one jacket and I swear to God, you wore it to everything. I did wear it. to I It fit me like a glove. It was like.
stretched in this when your kids were in. that beautiful church and I was the. godfather and it was a beautiful. ceremony. I'm wearing a suit. Liza's. wearing a dress. People are wearing. robes. You're there uh wearing uh Dr. Zas's jacket from Okay, come on. It's so. cool. Don't I look cool in it, though? No one said looks cool who says, "Don't. I look cool?" Yes, I do though. I look. so cool in it. It's a great It's a great. jacket and I'm happy. And you know what? I'm happy that you got this back. Yeah, me too. I am too. Reclaimed a lot of the.
things that we lost. We've been trying. to find versions of it. And Oh, what you. There is one thing in particular, isn't. there, that you guys lost a poster? What. is it? A cell, an animation cell from. King of the Hill. Oh. That Tac loved. And so it's it's the first time I've. ever really done this. I asked Greg. Daniels, my old writing partner, and who. who who I've who I've gotten to know. really well over the last few years and. not few years, but very long time I've.
been working for you. And I asked him, I. said, "Do you have any or know where I. could get one?" And he gave Tac the. exact one that he lost. And it felt like. it was just coming back from the dead. Greg, you're a mench. He's a really good. guy. Cool. It was really nice. Shout out. to Greg Daniels. Yes. That's so nice. So, you're so slowly you're going to. rebuild your life by getting back some. of the objects. Oh, I lost $100,000. That's a lie. You're just lying now. And. oh, and guess what? It had real. sentimental value. It was It was all.
special bills. I remember that paper bag. of $100,000 with $100,000 meant so much. to you. Special to me and I really wish. I had it again. Well, I guess there's. one thing we can do. What are you going. to do? get some Monopoly boards. We'll get a lot of fake money and put it. together. Um, no, but I I bet you there are a. bunch of things we could go through and. and and get back. I hope so. I mean, it. is it does feel like you're bringing. things back from the dead, which is. cool. This jacket meant a lot. I loved.
this jacket and I really thank you for. doing it. Although, I do know you're. you're just doing it so you could keep. the riff going. No, that's part of the. reason I did it. But there's 10% of it. 90% was keep the riff going so I can. continue to bash away at you. And then. there's 10% which is I love you and I. want you to be happy. That's very nice. Thank you. Thank you. But 90% total. Yes. I know. You know, guns blazing. Got. to get you. I know. I know. Make you. feel bad. Sure. I know. I know. Well,
you had a happy ending. Yes. Did And did. you uh you didn't lose anything in the. fire, did you? I'm sorry to say I. didn't. No. It is weird. There's a. survivor's guilt. Of course, I'm telling. you, there is there is totally a. survivor's guilt in LA right now when. when I've I mean, I've talked about. this, but I've been very open about the. fact that fire got really close to my. house and filled it with smoke and I'm. still not back in it. We've been out. since the fire. So, it's been months now. since I've lived in my house and um and.
it all has to get cleaned out and. everything, but you can't. there's nothing I I'm just still I'm. grateful. I'm very grateful that my. house still exists. And if I ever catch. myself saying to anybody, "My my. sneakers, my Brook sneakers got a little. they they have good art support for when. I run." And well, they got a little. smoky. and so they have to be wiped off.
cuz they got smokey. And then you're. you're probably standing next to. somebody who lost their house. Yeah. So. keep my mouth shut. You lost your house. You can't go back to your house. That's. why I feel like I have guilt all around. Survivors guilt all around. I feel like. I want to sleep in a tent in my front. yard. You should. No, that's going too. far. You should. I can't. It would fill. it with smoke. Well, yeah. Toxic smoke. Well, I'm glad. I'm glad that you we got that back and. we'll get other things back. You'll see.
Thank you.
