    Conan meeting Liza. czcams.com/video/1HaHeQXBqxY/video.html
    I love this this part 20:23 where Liza asks to Conan what if he couldn't find her when she change her job, to which Conan says he would have found her and there is an entire department of people there who does nothing but find things for him.

    I love how Conan had to invent a situation after the shooting was finished to hang out with Liza even though he’s a huge star on television, he was a still that scared kid in high school that was a bit too nervous to ask a girl out. So he concocted a situation where he wouldn’t get shot down. It really shows what a good guy Conan is, especially in this day and age when we see the way so many creeps on TV treated women in the nineties.

My God, it was kismet! It’s so unbelievably sweet and genuine that it makes my heart smile for them that they found each other in such a silly, random way.

    One evening I caught Liza and Conan out on town(looked like a date( this was back in the mid 90's ) . We were walking uptown, they were walking downtown and as we past them I realized who one of the outrageously tall individuals was. I asked my friends if they had seen who had just past us and they said yes they had, so I turned around and starting yelling, Hey Conan!!! He and Liza started walking even faster, much to my glee as I knew he was probably embarrassed being literally called out. A few nights later he made a joke about it on air, which filled me with happiness, knowing that I had provided him with comedy material. However, during the bit he failed to mention that he was out on a date.😁🤣

    Conan is 6'-4". Looking at the photos of them together, Liza must be about 5'-10.

      Yeah I noticed that too. And in heels she's probably 6'2", my height.
