Timothy Olyphant (FULL EPISODE) | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

[Music]. My name is Timothy Olifant and I feel so. wonderful about being Conan O'Brien's. It's almost as if I was given a beach. house, >> but one that I don't frequent. You know, we have to keep this intro. short today. >> because the guy is on today. talks. He talks and he takes over but.

every word is gold. >> We want him to, you know, he's handsome. Adam and I talk about this. He brings a. an element of chaos to this podcast that. I think what you normally do to us, he. does to you and there is such a sweet. like revenge, right? There's a feeling. of of justice happening that. >> it's like Freddy Krueger gets his in the. end. >> It's I think he's one of my favorite. guests that we ever have because of what. he does to this show. He turns other. thing is I think he and Kevin Nean are.

in the same category. They're chaos. agents who have no respect for me. >> Um and uh and they they just go for it. The fans are always delighted when these. guys are on either one of them. And uh. yeah, Timothy Olant is. >> he's so smiley and genial and yet. there's this uh contempt. I don't know. He's also like masculine but like a a. pixie from another world that comes in. and just kind of messes with everything,

you know? >> I get no masculinity from him. >> Oh, I get Are you none? >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I think. But no, I. think. >> he's so handsome. That's different than. being masculine. >> It's not just It's not just being. handsome. He's like cool. >> and he's like, you know, he could do I. feel like he could do everything. >> He's in Deadwood, my favorite show of. all time. >> I love that he always comes in wearing. sandals. >> Yeah.

that. >> I think it's funny. I think it's very. funny. You know what you do? >> Can I just say something? I clean up. pretty nice. I think a lot of people. wonder if you put a Timmy Olen next to. me, you'd be like, "Oh, uh whatever. They're both handsome.". >> Okay, why why you making this about him? Cuz we none of us can compete with. >> We can say he's handsome. You can also. be handsome. He can also be handsome, but he also has like I don't think any. of the comments are going to be like I. wish Conan talked more. Like I don't I don't think that's going.

to be like a criticism. It's not like. people are going to light up the Switch. Boys and be like, "Can you not have. Timothy Elephant on again?" Cuz I wanted. to hear more Conan. [Laughter]. Shut Timothy Olan up and more Conan. there. I don't think that's just I just. don't think that's gonna happen. >> I've never heard him so quiet. >> I know. I And you guys are friends, too. That's the part that probably stings the. most is you guys are friends, right?

>> Remember in Good Fellas when they're. playing poker. >> and uh and then Spider, >> this is the third time this has come up. on this podcast multiple times, >> but it's important. It's important. >> cuz this it relates to this moment right. now. >> Okay. Spider finally talks back to. Peshi, right? And everyone's laughing. and loving it. Yeah. >> And Peshi's just staring at Spider. Yeah. >> That's what's happening right now. >> Are you going to tell me shut up called. and told me it's me? >> I'm going to pull out a gun and pull the.

trigger and the gun is going to say shut. up called. >> and it's you. Do you know that when that. happened and Spider, the guy who plays. Imperial, Michael Imperial, his squibs. went off the blood packs and they um he. crushed a glass with his hand during the. take. So they had to rush him to the. hospital because his hand was bleeding. But they rushed him in the hospital and. the doctors freak out because they. thought that he was had been like. machine gunned because of the squibs. Yeah. >> And that's just another movie fun fact. by your podcast co-host Matt Gorley.

relationship? Every time we hang out, you say, "Let's figure out a way to. monetize this friendship.". >> Yeah. Yeah, I do. >> And then, >> yeah, I'm always on a Wait, >> I'm always on a Zoom with faux Michael. Sarah over here and we're figuring out a. way to try and let's get some coin out. of this, you know? >> Jesus. I think it's like a midnight run. situation where you're a cool loose. cannon cop and you're an accountant that. he has to take across country or. something like that. You know, you're. handcuffed together.

>> Yeah. >> No, I think I am. Okay, I'm out of. ideas. >> A porn star. You know, a guy who's known. for having a big Johnson. >> and then this guy comes along and he's. like, "Teach me.". >> What do you think, guys? >> Yes. And. I know. I I would I think it'd be we got. something. >> and clearly I would be very happy to. play some kind of subordinate role. I. mean, I get it. You're the movie guy. I'm not that guy. But I think uh there's.

a project out there. There's a short. film. There's something we do together. >> I love that. I see. I always assumed you. wanted you you wanted first billing. >> No. >> No. You're okay with being. >> I would totally Yeah. >> I'm sorry. I would have spoke up. We I. have ideas. >> So, the only thing stopping you I was. like, >> "You thought I would get top billing?". >> Yeah. I was like, "No, no, I'm going to. count pages.". >> I'm deluded, but I'm not that deluded. I'm deluded in in many ways, but no, I. think this would be something that you.

>> drive. Uh I mean, you've got it all. You. can do You're a leading man. You're a. character actor. You've got it all. You. >> can we be like a just little short. little five minute things. Can we still. do that? You want to like full and Yeah. >> Yeah. I want it to be like at least 25. minutes long, >> maybe. I'm I'm I'm My ideas are all. about the length. >> Mhm. Yeah, >> it's like I've got it. It's 28 minutes. and then I don't know what it is. But I. do think us together that's a magical. There's something here. It's not peanut. butter and jelly, but it's like peanut. butter and then almond butter together.

on a sandwich. >> Yeah. Now I feel it. There's something. here. And by the way, it's here right. now. >> It's here now. >> People feel it. >> Yes, they do. They do. There's an. affection, but there's also an. animosity. >> And when those two come together, it's. like when they cross the streams in. Ghostbusters. We got you gorly back in. the conversation. Right. >> Tell us about it. >> Ghostbusters. That's what brought you. back. >> I mean, what do you want me to say? >> Isn't this where you go, "Well, they. don't cost the streams. It's a. tripartate stream.". >> You were right, you son of a. >> Um, not a fan of his.

Boston once down the north end. Yeah. Near what was then the I guess it might. still be the aquarium. The aquarium. Yeah. welcome with a friend of mine. Bunch of kids came over. They said, "Give us 50 cents." I said, "I don't. feel like it." And in the time when I. finished saying, "I don't feel like it. that uh I got hit so hard in the face.".

There's always a little. drama somewhere and this was a small one. but right before I think I was about to. get on the plane uh they're like hey you. had this scene and uh getting spray. tanned and um they think it'd be funny. if you were naked and um would you are. you okay with that or do you know is. that a problem? And uh I asked Alexis, I.

said, "Hey, they want me to be naked. You see my ass in this thing." And then. she's like, "What. what's in it for you?" You know what I. mean? Like she's like, "Nowadays, if. you're naked on TV, you're basically. naked on the internet.". >> They've kind of ruined it. Right.

That was my ass. now that I think about it. >> Is his head shot just his ass? >> I wonder. Yeah. >> His naked ass. But it's in also the the. naked ass has a chef. The naked ass it's. that one that's four, you know, four. photos, >> nerd, jock, chef, >> policeman uh ass. Um, okay. So,

That's. fantastic. I've got to see that. I've. heard that's really great. Yeah, they. shot it in Thailand and Tim Olifan's in. it. He was so great on the podcast. I I.

got to see this. >> Thailand. >> Two for two. works every time. You know what's the thing about cuz. you're a bit you you got you're a travel. guy. You got the travel show. That's. >> I'm a travel guy. Yeah, I got the travel. show. What a So well verssed in my work. >> You do the thing where there's different. places. You're the places guy. >> I'm just going to play to them. You're.

the places guy. You go to the places. >> Okay. So here's the thing about the the. travel. >> Uh it's such a fine line between trying. to respect the language and this the. accent and then you're like now you just. sound racist. >> Yep. Exactly. >> You know what I mean? Yeah. >> It's like if you just say like. they're like no that's not how it goes. But if you go like sort the crap, you. know, they're like, "Okay, now you're. making fun of us.". >> Right. Right. >> You know what I mean? You got to find. this little sweet spot. >> Yes. >> Right. >> Exactly. >> You That's been your experience.

>> Nope. Not at all. I always get it just. right. Very culturally sensitive. But. keep doing your version of the wrong. one. Just do it a couple more times. >> All these different when you go into a. different land with the culture. Yeah. Did. >> I tell you we were we had been in uh we. had been in Thailand for a few weeks and. you know we're using the like the goo. the the translate thing the little the. app. >> So you know you say the English pops. back out in Thai and then you say that. So, we're getting we got our couple.

things down, right? And uh at least, you. know, I feel pretty confident and we're. branching out now and we're now at. restaurants. And uh I've been I've been. asking uh the waiters at any of the. restaurant. I've been pointing the menu. and saying, you know, what do you like? Yeah. Like what's your favorite? Right. But saying that in Thai and um I'm. getting nothing. They're not giving me. it's it just seems to be lost. >> It's not working. Yeah. So, it occurs to. me that if you go on the app, if you can. say it in English and it says to you in.

Thai that I can flip that. So, I'm like, "Oh, I say it in Thai and it'll tell me. back in English and I'll know now if I'm. saying it correctly.". >> So, I start off with the basics just to. make sure I'm saying it right. So, I'm, you know, and then it's like it's saying. whatever that was, hello, right? And. you're saying, you're saying thank you, goodbye, and hello. And then I say, "And. what is your favorite?" And I say that. and it comes back and says,

"Gaze into my eyes.". >> And it all starts to make sense. >> Yeah. >> So for at least two dinners, >> you were telling people. >> literally this is going. pretty good, right? Gaze into my eyes. Huh? Gaze into my eyes.

>> That's fantastic. >> I'm surprised no one just started to got. down and looked right into your face. >> I tried it so seriously, too. Like I. would really be like just gaze into my. eyes. >> But they're nice people, you know. >> So good people. They were very nice. H. and the food's extraordinary. And you're. a foodie as well. >> Did I tell you? Here's another cultural. thing. >> Yep. >> I'm not letting you in, Brian. I got. stuff to tell you. >> cuz you think you think you're right.

There's certain things you think. universal. We're all right. And I'm with. my my buddy Jonathan. Uh hello to. Jonathan down there. He's American who's. been living in Thailand for like 15. years. >> And uh every now and then he gets a. hankering for just something very. American. So we went into a uh subway. He's like, "I'm gonna get a meatball. sandwich." And he orders the foot long. meatball sandwich. And this, God bless him, what a sweet.

young Thai kid on the other side of the. counter. He gets out the bread and then. he gets the little scooper they use. And. it's one meatball, two meatball. They're in there going up. >> Not Not the length of the bread. >> He's building a tower. He's So he's got a loaf of bread and a. tower tower of meatballs. >> This is when he gets good. >> Yeah. >> He then gets the other piece of bread.

and he puts it on there. >> What? >> And that's when he realizes he's done. something wrong. >> Bread. Touching bread. Touching bread. Touching bread. >> Cuz he looked up at us. >> like he knew something was off, but he. wasn't sure what. And I was like like I give him a little. little nod to the I don't want to tip. those meatballs, buddy. >> So, not everything translates. That's my. point.

>> I'm going to get you on this project one. last time. Is this Noah Holly who worked. on this project? >> Yes. >> Okay. I'm asking you this because. Fargo is one of my uh a fanatic for the. Cohen brothers. And when Fargo came out, it remains one of my favorite movies of. all time. I can quote from that movie. I. know it frame by frame. When I heard. that they were going to do a TV show. called Fargo, I said, "This is going to. suck. There's no way this can be good.".

Because it's someone saying, "No, we're. doing a TV show about The Godfather 1. and two." I just think that's going to. be terrible. That can't work. Don't. touch my movie. I've been stunned by his. work. Yeah. >> I think it's absolutely fantastic. And. so, I'm excited for this. >> Alien Earth. I know you're excited. >> Well, yeah. Taking another movie and. turning it to TV, it's in good hands. >> It is in good I I do think it's in good. hands. I've seen um a couple of them and. um it's really special. It was special. reading them. It was really It was one.

of those jobs where it was more fun the. more we shot, you know, I felt more not. when I say fun, like the work, the. material, you could just feel it was, oh, this is going to be special, you. know?
