Conan O'Brien

And I just have this burning desire to know what happened.

And if she's reading this wonderful, powerful novel, I'm like, yeah, but what happened?

That's just made up.

And so she has wonderful photos of me when we've gone on vacations over our long marriage on different beaches in a different beautiful settings, reading the most turgid, dark books about, you know, the gulag.

I'm sitting there with like a rum punch next to me.

No, no, she's very well read and she's always reading, you know, she's reading great stuff and she has convinced me.

She's gotten me to read.

Yeah.

I have to say even one of my, probably my favorite book is a historical novel, The Killer Angels, which is- This is what got me into the, to do The Civil War.

I have not.

Well, you know, there's so many things that really happened in our history and just in history in general that if you wrote it as a screenplay, someone would say, eh, this is too much.

You know what I mean?

You lost me.

You know, Avatar is more believable than this.

You know what I mean?

You got a little crazy here when he swims across the river and you think, no, no, this is all...

All true.

And I think that's what's always attracted me so much to it.

My dad was really into history and I got into it and I realized, oh, it's just stories.

And, you know, Sona's always giving me a hard time.
