Jack McBrayer Is "Like Catnip" To Conan | Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend
Let's strip away all of the madness. Would you call us friends? Ugh. Yes. (laughter)- Come on. We are we're friends. We're pals. We are. -You can plead the fifth on this. You don't have to answer this. No, we are. Friends. -Do you understand that you are like catnip to me? You're very presence makes me insane. You've seen it Sonna, right? You mean it really is. It's very specific people when they're around him, he lights. up and then he's like, oh, the amount of things he can think. of and you know what you, you play. along. And I think it just empowers. Him. - So this is a true story just.
before we started this podcast here. at our new podcast studio space here. in Larchmont in Los Angeles. I see that you've just entered and you're walking. down towards the podcast studio and I get so excited. I turn to Sonna. Yeah. - Who is eating what? I was eating some chocolate. I was eating a crunch bar and a small Snicker's bar had. And what did I do? I was so excited. This is awful. In one hand, I had like a rapper and then you. knock the rapper outta my hand. And then I grabbed the, the chocolate outta my mouth.
'cause I'm angry. Then you knock that out of my hand. And then you step on it and you laugh. What's a maniac? - Just like. a maniac. - It was the behavior of, look. I am a 44 year old grown man. Oh sir. (group laughter). Oh. (group laughs harder). Oh, Sir. I am a 78 year old man that should know better. And I literally do become a giddy puppy when.
you're around and I behave in an insane manner. And I hope you take it as a compliment that it should be. Love it. But also again, when you think back. to where you were and where you are. I can't believe like I'm hanging out with you. You know, like I used to watch you on my TV. You didn't own a television he's gesturing. Well, that was your takeaway? (group laughs). My takeaway from that very nice statement was.
you didn't own a television. I no he's being so. nice. - No, no, that was no, listen. that was, I don't take it for granted either. And we went out to dinner. We won't say with who. very famous comedy person, just the other night. (laughter). You and I had a really nice. Famous people. You and I had a really nice dinner the other night with a. a famous person who won't be mentioned. Right. - But we had a blast with hater. It was great. Ah, and was it really. He didn't say first name though. Oh yeah. I won't say which hater, but he went.
on his way and then I walked you to your car. Aw. - And we, we hugged each other. It was quite late at night. Yeah. - And I said, I hugged you. and I went, well, love you Jack. You didn't say anything in return. I don't remember that. You blacked out. Blacked out and you just let me get behind the. wheel. That's. (group laughter). He really did that hurt your feelings? Were you waiting for it? Did it linger? Knew he couldn't do it. He's said cartoon mule.
He's not gonna love you this little. Like he probably first couldn't even process it was. in denial and then grief and then, or. or making sure that you're being sincere. Yeah. - Yeah. Right. Maybe I maybe I've stung you so many times. that you couldn't. I think so. Well, I love hanging out with you. You are one of my favorite people. Every time I see you, this is all as this is. this is as sincere as I can be. Every time I lay eyes on you. I am a giddy kid at Christmas and I love, I don't care.
I know at some point, you. and I are gonna exchange real information about each other. cross talk. We did good. We did good today. This was today. We did pretty well. Today, today was the start. Today was the start. You're gonna have to go through and take through this. Go find the moments and string it together. Like a conversation for real. this will not make sense to anybody. This is one of the more lucid ones really? Oh no. - It is pretty good. But anyway, and before we go, I did want. we have a special surprise guest.
Who? Your first donkey. (donkey noise imitation). Moan, ow. Outta control. Oh, I just did it. because I don't know if they can see your reaction. This just absolute. We're all so embarrassed. Yeah, we really are. (laugh). We're all so embarrassed. We were heading towards a beautiful day. I can't do it. I can't do it. Wonderful conclusion. I'm sorry.
And then brayed like a donkey, like a donkey.
