Hey, welcome to a Thursday episode of Conan o' Brien needs a friend.

嘿，歡迎來到《Conan o' Brien needs a friend》的週四特別節目。

情態副詞

Usually these are fan episodes, but we've been mixing it up a little bit recently.

通常這些是粉絲回饋的集數，但我們最近有點不一樣。

And I have my a elite writing staff downstairs in the building working hard on concepts, riddles, quizzes, recipes for the Oscars.

我的精英寫作團隊就在樓下，正努力構思奧斯卡獎的各種概念、謎語、測驗和食譜。

I work with the best writers in the world and one of them, I want to come up and hang with them.

我跟世界上最頂尖的編劇一起工作，其中一位，我想請他上來跟我一起玩。

We did this with Brian Kiely a couple days ago and now we're going to do it with Mr.

幾天前我們才跟 Brian Kiely 做過，現在我們要來跟這位

About as sharp a writer as you will find you really are.

You're crazily talented and I'm so glad that you're helping me with the Oscars.

你非常有才華，我很高興你來幫我準備奧斯卡獎。

Did you say it was 2009 was when you came on board 2009, just as you were wrapping up Late Night in New York?

你說那是在 2009 年加入的，2009 年，就在你結束紐約的 Late Night 節目時？

I was wrapping up Late Night and I was headed to the, to take over the Tonight show for a 30 year run.

我那時正結束 Late Night 節目，準備接手 Tonight show，展開 30 年任期。

And you said, you know, tonight's show hosts last forever.

然後你說，你知道，Tonight show 的主持人可以做一輩子。

And you started spending money like crazy.

Most of it was spent before I even got to California.

大部分錢在我到加州之前就花光了。

He showed up and the first day he got, he said, I'm buying a Bentley.

他出現了，第一天他就說，我要買一輛 Bentley。

And he got a license plate that said tonight show for life.

然後他還弄了一個車牌，上面寫著 Tonight show for life。

It was way too many characters for a license plate.

那個車牌字數太多了，根本不合法。

其實是 Tonight show for Life 3，因為另外兩個人也拿到了相同的包。

It was actually tonight's show for Life 3 because two other people had gotten the same bag.

我 Tonight show 的另外兩位編劇。

所以你陪我走過了 Late Night Tonight show 的尾聲，然後是 TBS 的節目，現在還有奧斯卡獎。

So you were with me for the end of late night Tonight show, then the TBS thing and now Oscars and.

所以你就是我終身的編劇了，不管你想不想。

So you will be my writer for life, whether you want to be or not.

所以，我們來聊一下這個，因為編劇有很多種。

So, and just let's get into this a little bit because there are different types of writers.

There are the kinds that chatter constantly.

我，我很抱歉，我就是那種人。

Doing bitch in the room and dancing around like a chimp.

在房間裡像個潑婦一樣，然後像隻猴子一樣跳來跳去。

That I call you, you're like a ninja, an assassin.

我叫你，你就像個忍者，一個刺客。

You're quiet, you're taking things in, and

then you'll say something that's really hilarious and you'll write something that's really great.

你就會說出一些超好笑的話，寫出一些超棒的東西。

But there's not a lot of, you know, babbling and hey, look at me.

但是沒有太多，你知道的，囉嗦和「嘿，看我」。

It's not demonstrative because I believe in my work.

這不是炫耀，因為我相信我的作品。

And I'm also a bad musician, but I'm a bad magician trying to distract you.

我也像個蹩腳的音樂家，但我是一個想分散你注意力的蹩腳魔術師。

Cause I'm afraid someone will really look and see.

因為我怕有人真的會看，然後就發現了。

But I think it's also just because I've never been uncomfortable with that part of, like, performing stuff.

但我想也是因為我從來沒有對表演這部分感到不自在。

Even when I was doing standup, I was the guy who just hugged the microphone.

即使我以前在做單口喜劇時，我也是那種只會抱著麥克風的人。

而且我不是那種很會演戲的人。

Well, tell me about your journey a little bit because this happens so often.

嗯，跟我聊聊你的經歷吧，因為這種事經常發生。

I work with these really talented people and I get to know them.

我跟這些超有才華的人一起工作，然後我認識了他們。

And I think, hey, I don't really know your origin story, but when did you know?

然後我想，嘿，我其實不太知道你的發跡故事，但你什麼時候知道的？

I mean, I think I always knew it as a kid, but I didn't know.

我想我小時候就一直知道了，但我不知道。

I think you probably hear this a lot and I think a lot of people who are in comedy say this, but

我覺得你大概常聽到這個，而且我覺得很多從事喜劇的人都會這麼說，但是

You know, I didn't grow up in that kind of environment.

說真的，我沒有在這樣的環境長大。

You know, my parents were both state workers in Albany, New York, and I.

我爸媽在紐約奧爾巴尼都是公務員，然後我。

And my dad was really instrumental in that because my dad had.

而我爸在這方面真的扮演了很重要的角色，因為我爸有。

My parents had a terrible record collection.

我爸媽有一堆很棒的唱片收藏。

They had like a couple John Denver's, a couple Barbra Streisands.

他們有幾張 John Denver 的，幾張 Barbra Streisand 的。

But then my dad also had David saying, what's wrong with that?

但我爸也有 David，說「有什麼問題嗎？」

But my dad had Bob Newhart records as well, so he was my introduction to comedy.

但我爸也有 Bob Newhart 的唱片，這就是我認識喜劇的開始。

So I would listen to his records all the time.

But those were also a huge influence on me.
