Conan Thinks Natasha Lyonne Is A “Singularity” | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

Natasha I was really excited about you. being here because you've been on the. show a bunch of times and every time I. talk to you I'm deliriously happy. because you are you are a singularity. you are unlike anybody else that I speak. to you are such an original uh speaker. of speaking and speeches and speech of f. but you are not no no I I was I was. Obama's speech. writer that's why most of his speeches. about the affordable act started out.

like now listen to me yeah now listen up. country emphasis on the C I said. it I thought you were wrote his best. speeches thank you you know a lot of I. don't get a lot of credit for that and. so I really appreciate you bringing it. up a lot of people just think of me as. like uh I don't know whatever my captain. Bruno Kirby or some and I'm like. honey like I wrote Obama's most. iconic Fe you did you are such a great.

uh Speech writer for Obama but also um. you you fell through a black hole you. come from another time um you are what. would you call yourself a. ragamuffin yeah well I do appreciate. that instead of saying singular you. actually called me the singularity. so our first test subject and uh you. know what's Wild is people thought that. Ray kurtwell was a c.

you know what I mean they thought he was. some sort of a wackadoodle um I think. it's because you know he he did talk. about the singularity and uh early but. then uh the back half of the documentary. really ends with discovering that the. reason he wants this sort of um life. extension Singularity is so he can. resurrect his uh dead father and bring. him back from the dead which kind of. undid I think uh his theories cuz it. seemed like you know he was just some. sort of a character out of Young.

Frankenstein but um yes that's actually. uh how I think of myself as as the final. merging of technology and uh. Humanity that was some run yeah it was. good that was an incredible speech you. just gave better than anything you wrote. for Obama yeah thanks that was well. because I like to take people on a loop. the where is this going and then I slide. into no plate you know what I mean into. just no play that wasn't just yeah that.

wasn't just a roller coaster that was a. Coney Island roller coaster made of wood. it has a little bit of GI to have you. been on that roller coaster oh yeah. I've swam in that one I don't give a. was in it you know I was on that. roller coaster once and it gives oh you. feel it give on the corners it's made of. like Old Pine and that's a roller. coaster is not something I want to be. vintage I also don't want my eye. operation to be vintage did you get. lasic no I didn't but I'm just saying if. I were to have my eye operated on I.

wouldn't want to go all retro and cool. you know like give me the uh give me the. instruments from 1885 just cuz I want to. be all steampunk yeah that's not me I. want that I don't want that well I won't. do it then look look honestly this one. you can just do it I I I'm being too. uptight and I can tell and you look you. look bummed down I want you no that's. just my face it is yeah I'm kind of just. that's my my neutral face is slightly. depressed oh really and when people see. me on the street they often ask me hey. Conan what's matter cuz when they they.

know me from the days of jumping around. like a mad you just no I'm just is it. also your neutral State partly depressed. I I don't think that's true I think I'm. slightly anxious maybe and maybe I am. thinking a lot about how briefly uh I am. on this planet and how soon I'll be. moldering in my tomb those things come. to mind a lot yeah not afraid ctz has. his way with you this is. going to bring you right back the name. of this documentary uh transcendental.

man maybe but I'm just uh pulling from. The Ether uh I think it is maybe Google. it yeah okay he we got Eduardo on it. right now or that or he's buying. something on Amazon it's one of the. others he buying another messy Jersey. transcended man yeah transcend. Transcendent man well uh close enough. but listen so you're basically just uh. you know a baby genius and uh that's not. your problem right so are you depressed. are you existential or you just like. thinking thoughts I'm just thinking.

thoughts sounds to me like you might be. thinking thoughts I'm just thinking. thoughts yeah and thoughts Drive. emotions ask any yeah they do and. feelings aren't facts exactly and now. we've done our service now we're okay. goodbye. everybody been the shortest this is the. shortest podcast we've ever. done.
