how to be this Conan guy up there.

And I'm wondering what early you would have been like, cause I know you, you were getting up there in the probably 86, 87 around then.

Um, I think we all start out like doing Seinfeld, you know what I'm saying?

It's like observational, uh, comedy and, and,

That's what I was doing.

It was all about just writing jokes that I thought, hey, isn't it funny when this happens?

But it was never about me or into my persona.

It was just what's on paper, the jokes, that's it.

It was later on.

uh in life i guess when you get confidence and and also was when i uh was going through a divorce that's when it was like fuck it let's go you know then it was more me yeah that came out and i was like oh this this is who i'm going to be this is who i am and also uh it's it's easier to just always be yourself you know in a way you could say that i'm kind of lazy really i don't i

Really?

That's the moral here.

Really, I'm lazy.

But that's where really great stuff comes from.

Yeah, why give you something else?
