Zach Galifianakis Stand-Up | Late Night with Conan O’Brien

‘Please be quiet, I’m very interesting’ - I’m gonna use that abruptly in a dead conversation one day 😂😂
Great idea, I'm joining you :D
@@ondraspendlik9759 same
I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face lol
I've got to remember to use it on my students next week.
"Someone told me I cant do standup. *Looks down at piano bench* I told him I don't appreciate fat jokes."
"don't you just hate it when people answer their own questions? I do."
@@SusanPDavis I thought this was gonna be a reply-joke 💀
@@tmoney24138 same lmao
Hotel? Trivago
How about the black people carrying on a conversation and always say " you what I'm saying "
Telling jokes and playing the piano... man talented asf
Check out Tim Minchin
It's almost like he is using the piano to fill the time between one liners and he doesn't really belong in the music comedy genre.
Your face is a comedy genre Steven
Comedians see music as a crutch, telling the same jokes in a normal setting would require skill/timing
@@isai9048 Comedy is hard. Zach just belongs with Mitch Hedberg, Steven Wright and Demetri Martin stylistically over Weird Al and Flight of the Concords.
"I once saw my grandparents have sex. And that's why I don't eat raisins." - Zack Galifianakis
Hey. English is not my native. Can you explain this one to me?
@@antikokalis raisins are shiveled up grapes.
And old people look like shriveled up grapes.
What is this from? That's honestly one of the funniest things i've ever heard
@@DolanDamnWargin the first time I ever saw him on Conan back in the 90s. 🤣
His talent is keeping a straight face while telling jokes
"I just found out I'm dyslexic, so I wrote about it in my dairy."
He hasn't aged at all, he still looks the exact same.
Interesting comment. I wonder how people who exercise might feel rn. lol
it's from 2005 lol (assuming you weren't making a joke about that)
His humor has aged terribly
@mortdeus You're so rite. This comment led to us revoking his "GaliFANakis Club" membership. He was tier 3, dude.
"The only problem with having a distinctive laugh is that I know exactly when you're not laughing. 'Oh! Distinctive Laugh doesn't think that joke was funny!'" - Mitch Hedberg.
I've actually found myself missing Mitch's comedy a lot lately. Rip in peace mister Hedberg.
@@amphg7647 a lot of us do. My all time fave and wish I could see what he would come up with today.
Fun fact: Zach is one of Bo Burnham's comedic influences. *_Geniuses recognizing geniuses._*
Burnham directly stole that Ford Focus joke.
Jeremy Wagner the whole irony song is probably based off of that setup
Always found him annoyingly cringey
@@tyrannosaurusflex8536 I only watched him when I was 13 and had a girl over. Never really thought he was funny but young girls love him.
@@MaeMaeTube He is a Jim Halpert looking Singer, he isn't funny though, his insights boil down to basic bitch territory "RACISM IS BAD", "DONT HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS IF YOURE NOT SO GREAT YOURSELF", "LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE" and all those basic thoughts on morality that gets basic bitches into that "deep" comedy
“My girlfriend looks a little like Charlize Theron, and a lot like Patrick Ewing.” is just an incredible joke.
Your standards for jokes are incredibly low.
OK so he's actually really good at piano
He's just randomly playing the black keys while pressing the sustain pedal, try it out for yourself next time you see a piano and you'll surprise yourself with how good you can make it sound.
@You can't have Manslaughter without laughter No that's how you get fired from a jazz trumpet gig.
No he isn't, you could learn what he's doing in a day. Don'y get me wrong, I love Zach a lot but what he's doing anyone could do very easily.
@@j.s.m.5351 That's not true; there were semitones in there.
He's not u can teach anyone to play like that in 30 mins U need to know like 5 things about scales
This was the first time I’d ever seen or heard of him. I didn’t hear Conan introduce him as a comedian so when he made his first joke about his name I didn’t see it coming. He was hilarious to me. And here we are.
Yep. So.................where do we go from here?
Lol this is genius, the beautiful music takes up dead silence and also makes the stand up funnier.
I remember watching this when it first aired, having no idea what to expect. It was one of the funniest things I had ever seen. Thanks for uploading it in great quality!
That high pitched laughter you hear is actually Seth Galifianakis
I still remember this set when I was watching this back in college when I used to watch Conan religiously. He was relatively unknown then. I was so glad he was able to achieve the success the he deserved.
No one gonna mention, that the music was soothing you while you laugh
“I have gotten fatter which sucks because I’m claustrophobic” 👌 touché
Old school Zack is hilarious.
He still is hilarious
@@calebbradford7906 new school Zach has Between Two Ferns. Pretty sure he still got it, if not funnier.
Stand Up Zach is one of my favorite comedians
all Zack schools are hilarious
Wow, I can see why he is where he is today. This was a hilarious performance.
😆
Hilarious? Where?
Not only funny but unique. You generally get profane or observation comics. This guy just throws out brief, abstract vignettes. So original
I liked him better the first time when he was named Steven Wright. I also liked him better the second time when he was named Mitch Hedberg. He was so original those first two times
Zach says nothing - audience laughs. This is when you know you funny.
Laughing because the "applause " sign is lighten up
When he started the Mrs. Beasley bit I had just bitten into an orange segment... I started laughing and nearly choked to death! Zach Galifianakis nearly killed me!
It’s not even stand up he’s just making jokes and it’s amazing
and the fact that he's sitting
What do you think standup is...
You must be young lol . Stand up use to be purely jokes , now they have became story tellers . Which is fine . Love it both ways
I lost a Toad yea I’m more used to the story telling that leads up to a punchline but this is still awesome
@@Mexicanboy4496 all about content these days. Get that Netflix $$$. A one liner comic = 5 - 10 minute act, story telling comics = 5 specials +
Zach is still so underated. Funny dude.
That Patrick Ewing joke is god damn genius!!! Lol
I love this, please upload all his other appearances!
The fact that it's a stand up and he's sitting there the whole time, makes it even funnier.
I still laugh at the drunk/sleeping driving scene in Out Cold. Hilarious haha
How can anyone not love Zak!! Love this man♥️♥️🤣
I'm with you on this. Zach is 1 of my favorite people on earth. Whos your favorite funny people/comedians? Mine is Zach Galifianakis, Jeff Goldblum, Conan Obrien, John Ramirez, Robert Dawney jr... these 5 names appearing right away from the top of my head. GOD bless you, Ally Rah.
This guy is a stand up legend that unfortunately will never return.
Frankieeeeeeeee love pigs ear
Why do you say he will never return?
Keep uploading Conan, your videos get my spirits high😊
4:05 u can faintly hear someone say “this is so stupid” 😂
This is art...I’m hung over and emotional but I find this beautiful!
I normally don't watch stand up but this was really funny, glad I clicked
I wish he would come back to stand up he was so good
live @ the purple onion is in my top 5 favorite stand ups of all time.
Hollywood casts Zach as a dope in most movies. That image has been shattered after seeing this comedy routine! Simplicity meets brilliance!
@mattie fee, you desperately need to watch Between Two Ferns episodes and then the movie on Netflix. You'll love it I'm sure!
This was awesome!
Haha Big Show was the first guest!
Charles Thoreson Wwwweeeellll it’s the Big Show!🎵
@@ayadali9112 It's the big big show tonight🎶
Yep. Conan on that day when he said "We got a Big Show for you today" He actually meant it.
Fun fact. My old boss used to play basketball against the Big Show. They knew each other and he has videos of himself poking Big Show in the chest on the court as teenagers.
I am floored by good the old show looks in HD; I know, duh captain obvious, but very few people had HDTV back then, so to me my memory of Late Night NBC Conan is always in grainy 4:3 footage.Conan looks so young in that clip too.
THANK YOU
Seriously yet so funny 😂
Absolutely brilliant. *claps*
Pure pure pure talent
This is most of if not all from his old act on Comedy Central! One of my favorites all time!
The piano really makes this that much more enjoyable.
One of Zach’s long list of great comedy performances
I never knew he had Mitch Hedberg vide. Thank you KZhead!!! This was gem 💎
If you want more of this look up his stand up special "live at the purple onion" it's a brilliant piece of art
Love Zach. He is hilarious.
3:19 When you’re trying to start your car.
Love this guy
Wow, and he plays the piano too🤯
I want more of that
Love your humor and wow you have musical talent also...
I also love the one where he asks "does anyone care if I smoke in here?" and he pulls a *cigarette from the pack and drops it, and you hear *tink tink tink* which is obviously a metal one-y painted like a cigarette. Then he apologizes for the prop comedy and says he feels like Carrot Top when he does that joke.
I wish he did this more so funny 😂
Zack: I think the sign in the neighbourhood saying “slow children playing” is so mean..😂
If you like more of his awkward humor " Between 2 Ferns" on netflix Is worth watching.
Lol 4:01 one of my favorite jokes and he only said one word. "Oh" like he forgot to make jokes.
And then he went on to become a comedic genius.
He always has been
purple onion watch it on Netflix
Absolutely. "Live at the Purple Onion" is Zach's stand-up special that these jokes came from (to give your comment a bit of context).
I always like the way he dresses...rich fabrics, corduroy ..but he comes across as slightly disheveled
Yez, and it’s perfect 😁 he looks like a university associate professor of philosophy, or a HS orchestra teacher.
i have to tell you- this is my favorite comment i have ever seen, and i couldn't agree more.
Disheveled...is that a synonym for an insufferable, talentless, unfunny, self-centered doosh?
1:48 that was such an underappreciated joke. that was gold
"At what age do you tell a highway it was adopted?"
Good thing you wrote that out. We never would have heard it
i actually didn't get that one
@@fezzik7619 Welcome to youtube....we have a club for people write quotes from the vid. It's called everybody. We meet in the comments. Relax, bro.
He is brilliant 😂🤣
This is so great 😂 🤓❤
HE IS AMAZING!!!!
Legend
GOLD
legend
Oh when he was a little wolf :)
Epic!
This is talent
laugh track is on point
He’s like an elegant Mitch Hedburg.
When Zach has a piano, you know its gonna be good
this is that dude from late world with zach.
I always liked his stand up then again it is very Steven Wright whom is my favorite comedian ever!
I remember seeing this back then.
Ok damn Zach circa 15 years ago was hawwwttt 🔥
Upload the one where he does his impersonation of an elderly southern woman “I HATE THE TALIBAN”
Very talent so good and funny
This was the last thing I ever recorded off of t.v. with a VCR. Then about 15 minutes later I had transcribed it and posted it online.
You're a very special human.
@@jonhohensee3258 because he/she used to use a VCR?
@@Orangeflava - Don't be a Negative Nate.
@@jonhohensee3258 don't praise people for doing mundane things, nate
@@jonhohensee3258 but its saul goodman. Peace ✌🏾
Zach's rerun of the Onion visit has left the chat.
This is comedic genius!
"My brother has ADD which is weird because he drives a Ford Focus. I told my brother that joke & he didn't laugh because he got distracted by a squirrel." This set kills. My roommate just had a stroke. #ZachGalifianakis
What's "ADD" ? I'm sorry I'm French
This guy is great
Bravo
There's some real Gems in this one! 🤪
His standup style reminds me of Bo Burnham, love it!
No, Bo burnhams stand up reminds you of zacks.
Genius
Thank you Zach 14 years ago for putting me in a better mood on this shitty ass day
I could listen to him rant all day.
I’m listening to the podcast right now and I got notified for this video ... 😄
It just occurred to me this is an evolution to Mitch Hedberg. Hedberg did all these great one-liners, often w/ a jazz bass playing in the background. This is just the logical progression. Don't get me wrong, I think it's incredible, it's just cool to realize where it's genesis is. Another way I look at Zach and Hedberg is they are basically "jazz comedy". Just picking and choosing what...and what NOT...to say is just like jazz...it's only good if the right combo of notes is played...and NOT...played.
You can hear Paul Wight laughing in the background.
They just put one of those slow children signs in our yard yesterday bc we on the corner and that joke was kinda what I was thinking when I saw it lol
Zach Giraffes in the attic.
