It makes me sad to see these greats get older, alongside myself, but I’m so happy I got to exist when they did.
I love Albert Brooks, obvs he's known and loved in the comedy world but relative to his intelligence and his acting and his ability to be wildly, uniquely funny, he's always felt pretty underappreciated to me.
😂I just played "Mother" the other night for my 20 year old son the other night. We laughed so much. The frozen foods and grocery bits are so relatable for both of us.
Cannot believe they got the Spinal Tap documentary guy.
Albert's ventriloquist bit with the speak 'n spell on Carson. His one brilliant comedy album. So much to praise.
Albert Brooks breaking down why The Boy and the Heron and Godzilla Minus One are stomping huge hollywood movies at the boxoffice. Those films aren't even FOR American audiences and they are resonating because it turns out that when given the opportunity, Americans CAN appreciate good movies that are a shock to thier systems.
Albert deserves all the admiration due him. Nobody writes like him, not even Woody Allen.
I watched the documentary and it is wonderful. Albert allows pieces of his history and his outlook to be shown that gave me a chance to know a man whose talent I have always admired.
BTW, I am glad that Rob Reiner mentioned "Real Life" the breakthrough film by Brooks that was the actual first Mockumentary.
Norm Macdonald had the same sensibility. If it was funny to him, that's all that mattered.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Me too!! 😂❤
I bet he owned a doghouse
Albert Brooks’ older brother, Bob “Super Dave” Einstein was friends with Norm and appeared on the first episode of Norm’s podcast!
@@taylorlconner I know… I loved it ❤️
I watched the documentary this past weekend and I thought it was fantastic. I remember all of Albert's movies and his appearances on Johnny Carson but I didn't know anything about his backstory and how revered he is in the comedy world.
This episode contains the single funniest ad lib ever on the podcast (by Mr. Brooks, of course) and maybe the biggest laugh I’ve ever heard from Conan… Really hoping it shows up on another one of these clips! 😂
Best "Had to be there" story ever! I love it! Laughter is all it is about and all of you bring it!
Lost in America oneof the funniest movies ever made.
I’m so grateful for this stuff. Brilliant guys, all three. A great lesson for creative people that creating to please an audience isn’t where it’s at. Create to please yourself and the audience might follow if it’s good enough.
I always go back to Brook's bit "Rewriting the National Anthem" and the gold standard for his comedy. The version from his 1973 vinyl was great
Every time I see something about Las Vegas, I think "be the casino with a heart"
SCHMUCKS SEE WAYNE NEWTON
It’s so refreshing to learn more about the legendary comedians. I really appreciate the insight!
It's so refreshing to hear the stories of these two gentlemen! 🔥
Some of us got Spinal Tap. A lot of people didn't. But we ran to see it opening weekend because of the name Rob Reiner and we weren't let down. My god we laughed so hard. I can't wait to see the new documentary.
Well, the word of mouth on that one spread pretty fast, at least among the people I was bumpin into back in the day. Hard to believe it went right by some folks
Great stuff! You three rock
I am younger but I grow up watching Albert Brooks and always liked his low key humor. The guy is a desert.
So good though and I loved Defending Your Life.
And Hank Scorpio is one of the greatest things in animation.
That made him showing up as a villain in Driver just sooo good. (He nailed that part)
Albert touched on something really important here that goes even beyond comedy: If you think about many bands that are currently popular, especially with Millennials and GenXers, it's either bands that sound like something that's been around for a million years, or it's a tribute act to a legacy band, or the actual legacy band itself that's been popular since the 60s 70s 80s or '90s.
I think people in general are uncomfortable with new things, so every new thing either needs a small nod to something familiar (e.g., boygenius dressing as The Beatles), or it needs a trusted sherpa to lead people through unfamiliar territory... like the hypothetical chef Albert mentioned. We've gotten less interested in being even temporarily marginally uncomfortable or challenged.
(I'm painting with a really broad brush here. Don't worry, I'm not talking about you specifically. 🙂)
That was great! Very insightful!
I have been a fan of both these gentlemen, since I was a teenager and absolutely loved the documentary! I will watch anything featuring, (or by), Albert or Rob!😊❤❤
Amazing episode I could have listened to them for days.
Will never be able to hear Albert’s voice and not think of Marlin :)
Say it! Say it! Say "I lost the nest-egg." Go on, say it!
Comedy legends.
Sona included.
Albert Einstein is a brilliant comedy writer, actor.
The movie trailer made me kind of teary-eyed.
Best closing line to a podcast segment... like... ever.
2 guests gives me an idea for a series of episodes called Conan's crew and he tries to become part of famous duos or famous friends
I was just thinking the other day, Where has Albert Brooks been hiding all these years of recent??? 🤔 Anybody know 🤷♂️
Rob Reiner's awkward arm crossing at the beginning of Spinal Tap is 🤌🏼
I still can’t believe Albert Brooks was a covid hoarder.
😂
The commitment.
Be like the boy! Be like the boy!
Albert on the Tonight Show, with Johnny, being a mime ventriloquist. Both he and his little Jerry Mahoney dummy were in grey leotards, and whiteface. A young Tatum O’Neal sitting alongside. Bliss.
You should have Kissinger record some of those good help ads 😆
Please have Brooks back by himself (guy is royalty & deserves his own interview.) Plus, Hank Scorpio is my favorite Simpson's character of all time.
Next stop on YT: Albert Brooks mime Carson
Sorry your wife left you
All I hear is Hank Scorpio
Homer kicking the grenade back 😄
Great interview 😂😂👏👏👏
Maybe Dallas wasn't the greatest choice to screen a comedy at?
Please please post the video of the bidet ad
I'm Benjamin Bunny Glaser and I feel coerced into being familiar with Conan O'Brien.
How prophetic was Real LIfe? Amazing body of work. I wonder if Albert ever interacted with Andy Kaufman?
2 legends
Spinal Tap, Stonehedge. I rest my case...
Q. How is Conan the oldest one in the studio? (I asked CHATGPT his birthday & before it exploded it started spewing out the digits for π) A.Vampirism powered by validation powered by depresssion. Hero.
Conan is 60 while the other 2 are both 76. He's not the oldest one on this day, maybe of the permanent crew.
❤
With all due respect, love Rob, love Spinal Tap that being said, The Ruttles came out long before Spinal Tap and I think it has to be recognized as perhaps the first Rock mockumentary and albeit not the first but in my opinion the best mockumentary ever made.
Side note; Albert's Home Impression Kit from the Carson show is one of the funniest bits ever on a talk show.
The Ruttles is a straight parody. Not really the same thing as Spinal Tap. Because Spinal Tap was supposedly a real band, while the Ruttles were a broad take on the Beatles.
Sooo... Not a Rock mockumentary? WTF! @@charlie-obrien
I must be the only one who finds AB a snooze. I somehow feel left out.
Why would you open in Dallas? Did they really think anyone in Dallas would get it?
Excuse me for shouting, ....BUT WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE DOC AND HOW DO I FIND IT? How could they leave that out??
someone should do a spinal tap about social media models
When 2 people thats act like they hate each other for a bit, it takes me awhile to figure out wants going on. Im like a golden retriever who just wants everyone to get along. Im slow, ok?
Badges?!?!
If Conan would pay for the meal I would accept it if there were other people there who vouch for the meat than his friend the vampire Lestat who abandoned him in 1792.
Voice of Nemo :)
I felt kind of sorry for Sona sitting there being totally ignored. I’m not sure why Conan even had her there. Gourley might have been a better choice since he’s 10 years older than Sona.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I fell asleep to Conan on 9/10. I woke up in Hell w tv still on calling my mom at work who didn't know yet. You did that! You're lucky you get off being weird and pretending all your convos are this worthwhile!
I can't be the only one. Thanks buddy. I said if SOMEONE of the caliber of Mulaney, McHale, Olyphant, or Gillian Jacobs wanted to have dinner I'd pretend not to hate it. Night.
Really funny watching them try to inflate this guy's importance when he's right there and so mid.
When i read the headline, friends for 60 years i said, THAT'S IT THOUGH, RIGHT? THAT'S ENOUGH. BUT THEN? ROB ONLY TOLD TWO OF MR. BROOKS' STORIES AND ONLY TALKED OVER EVERYONE ALWAYS.
He's on fire. Nothin' but [inter]NET. AT LEAST UNLIKE ME CONAN CAN NEVER BE SANDRA BULLOCK'S THE NETTED. Bc? Dont say pastry on your head again. Thats a chilly strawberry Toaster Strudel. Ellen could hide her rage but not his doppelganger who could never hide his melancholy and infinite wannabe smart dorkness. Now dance puppet dance! God damn it I hate string dance so much. It makes me physically angry. Thanks. I love Conan and hate string dance so much I want to end it all except me because narcissism. Kidding. I'd end me first. It's not your fault you're a a 7 foot lesbian puppet who said without irony you listen to Phish. You Enjoy my Balls.
Rob Reiner.. the least informed person, but so out spoken about politics.
Rob Reiner is not a good person at all, quite the opposite actually.

what is the essence of albert brooks comedy and if he was a mathematical formula what would it be
Albert Brooks is a comedian, actor, writer, and filmmaker known for his unique brand of humor, which often involves satirical and observational commentary on contemporary life and the human condition. While it's challenging to distill the essence of his comedy into a single formula, some key elements can be highlighted:
Self-Reflection and Neuroses: Brooks often explores the anxieties and neuroses of everyday life, using self-deprecating humor and a keen sense of self-awareness. His characters often grapple with insecurities and the absurdities of modern society.
Social Commentary: Brooks' comedy frequently involves social satire and commentary on societal norms, relationships, and cultural phenomena. He has a knack for pointing out the absurdities and idiosyncrasies of human behavior.
Realism and Relatability: Despite the exaggerations for comedic effect, Brooks' humor is grounded in realism. His characters and situations often feel relatable, making his comedy resonate with audiences on a personal level.
Dry Wit and Sarcasm: Brooks is known for his dry wit and sarcastic delivery. His humor often relies on clever wordplay, irony, and a deadpan style that adds an extra layer of comedic impact to his observations.
If we were to attempt a whimsical metaphorical mathematical formula for Albert Brooks' comedy, it might look something like:
AB=(SR+SC+RR)×DWAB=(SR+SC+RR)×DW
Where:
ABAB represents Albert Brooks' comedy.
SRSR stands for Self-Reflection and Neuroses.
SCSC represents Social Commentary.
RRRR stands for Realism and Relatability.
DWDW represents Dry Wit and Sarcasm.
Keep in mind that this is a playful and metaphorical attempt to capture the essence of his comedy, and comedy, in general, is subjective and diverse. Brooks' work spans various mediums, including stand-up, films, and voice acting, so the formula is a simplification of his comedic style.
If I have to hear old people talk about Hollywood back when they were young imma barf.
yeah okay, it's guys just pumping up each other's egos, and talking about how great they are
Not entirely. Learned a new joke
Wrong side of history fellas.
Yeah so is your mom
