uncle um who always wanted me to be a. lawyer because he was a lawyer and he. was always saying you'd be a great. lawyer and you should your mom's a. lawyer and my mom's a lawyer and so he. was saying you should be a lawyer all. the time and he would push me and then I. graduate college I start becoming a. comedy writer I'm actually starting to. have success at it and he would still. say you should be a lawyer and I would. think huh I'm actually this is doing. okay then I'm working on Saturday Night.
Live then I'm getting on camera a little. bit and he's still saying you should be. a lawyer and then I'm on The Simpsons. and I'd see him and he'd still bring it. up then I get the Late Night show and I. swear to God he called the head because. because he had uh they he had gone to. the same College as the head of NBC oh. so he suddenly didn't know him and they. were years apart but he suddenly got his. number and he called him and he said. what is all this about Conan doing this. late night show that guy should be a.
lawyer oh my God no he didn't he did he. did so I get a call from Bob Wright. who's like you know runs NBC for General. Electric and he was laughing he was like. this guy just got on the phone and. yelled at me and said Conan should be a. lawyer and I'm like yeah I know you. should have told him he should have been. a comedian yeah you should have a late. night show but uh but his argument was. you know you if you're a lawyer you have. you get to be your own director and your. own actor and your your own R and I was.
like no no no I trust me very few people. have laid show did he ever come around. uh I don't think so I think it was. always a mystery to him and to and to be. fair um you know I just came from people. that knew nothing about Show Business. and didn't care about show business so I. think uh it was it was just felt like. what the hell is he doing wow what is. this nonsense knock it off go to BC law. and be a lawyer and uh and and you know.
I'm sure there were some people out. there that would say that would have. been a better use of my time but yeah it. was just that was interesting did you. ever want to be a lawyer no no I always. thought like I just I'm sorry I. would have done a really great job you. have to you have to no you couldn't do. that why do you think you could be a. lawyer and I couldn't yeah I didn't say. I could be a lawyer I said that someone. else wanted me to be a lawyer you should. not be a lawyer I could be a lawyer you. wouldn't show up at the your client. would be sitting yes how how fiercely.
have I fought traffic tickets oh sure. that's just a small small glimpse I'll. give her that she's amazing and she used. to miss whole days at work because she. was in traffic court and she would admit. up front oh yeah no I was doing 95 miles. an hour in a children's parking lot in. an elementary school and they caught me. children's parking lot elementary school. parking lot whatever and and then and. then you'd be you'd go there and you'd.
say all this to the judge and. you'd get off I would win yes that's. what we need we need the W's and I would. bring the. W's the winds I'd be one of those. billboard lawyers and everybody would. like sweet James yeah like Jacob and. Ramy but here's the problem um I think. you're very motivated when you've. someone's done you wrong the man has. given you a ticket then that gets your. Armenian blood boiling okay Armenian.
