I was an intern on Conan during this time. I got to meet Norm that day, and watch them shoot that little segment in front of a portable blue screen they set up in front of the curtain where Conan would do his monologue. I remember him doing a few takes and saying "...is... is this funny...?" to the segment producer lol

@@tarico4436 Things change. History doesn't repeat, it rhymes. The economy is booming right now (don't get me wrong, we're looking at a bubble), and the reason why people are killing themselves is different than in the Great Depression. The problem today is complex but it's mostly a symptom of inequality not seen since the Gilded Age. I dread what will happen when the economy inevitably does turn south, but the truth is by the time we recover from that we will be staring the effects of climate change right in the face.

I agree 100%! But, I personally feel that the punchline is watching the ill-prepared unsuspecting rubes absolutely lose their mind after Norm has told them a 10 minute "joke" that has gone absolutely nowhere. It seriously takes a lot of talent to get someone that angry with you and not have them haul off and punch you. He was awesome! What a guy!
Norm was never not telling jokes
There’s a difference between telling jokes, and speaking in joke, where you’re fully immersed in that state of mind fearless and calm. Big difference. Robin Williams and Bill Hicks and Chappelle are like that too.

@@thechovanone my thoughts exactly
I'm firmly, unshakingly, whole-heartedly convinced that Norm is the most deeply intelligent comedian in American history. His style is playful in the way that a 9-year-old is playful with an ant under a magnifying glass. He just owns it. Nothing trips him up. He is ALWAYS in total control of his audience's next reaction. I'm just in awe of him.
He's Canadian.
Neal Myers-Perry I didn't say he was American. I said "in American history." Norm has made his name, his fortune, his fan-base, his family and his legacy in America. His stand-up was in Canada, but New York and Hollywood are his adopted homes, and he's not a political blowhard. So we're happy to have him ;-)
He's a fearless comedian, I always treasure people who just don't care if a joke lands or not. Subversive humor at its best :-)
Who cares where he´s from. He´s just the best english-speaking comedian.
I totally agree. It's amazing. The way he wanders around a joke, to fit his audience, and the way he caters to whomever he's speaking. He might be genius.

Norm was himself. No act, no pretence, no b.s., like him or don't, Norm didn't care one way or the other. He was brilliant.
A Canadian, with those attributes? There is a first time, for everything.
I'd say he was funny and had an interesting style and delivery that's unique. I wouldn't call him brilliant. He hits but also misses a lot. Certainly off beat, quirky and very funny and witty at times.
Loved it when Norm talked about him & many other comedians doing a comedy benefit for the Ronald McDonald House Charities,the benefit was making money hand over fist then Norm said it dawned on him"hey!wait a second, just how big of a house does this fuckin' clown need?!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Norm was completely an act the hell are you talking about. At 4:09 he stops himself from saying 'bindle' so he doesn't look smarter than Conan because it would kill the illusion. He's basically the low-key 90s version of Andy Kaufman.

Norm Macdonald is a gem; a pure legend. Other comedians can make us laugh, and some can make us reflect while we laugh, but I've never smiled so much in my life as when I hear some of the art that is Mr. MacDonald's work. I bet I'm not alone.
Norm can make you laugh and cringe all at the same time.

Jay Schmidt, if you honestly find him to be a pure legend, you should really pay him the respect of crediting him rather than just stealing his sentiment and attempting to claim it as your own.

"It's nice to have you back Norm....you bring joy to so many people" - Conan O'Brien So do you Conan!

I remember watching this when it first aired and my friends and I STILL quote this segment to this day. It was absolutely ridiculous.
I love how at the end Conan was telling Norm to stay put so he can make his next guest not boring
There's a video called "Conan & Norm Macdonald Cook With Gordon Ramsey" which shows what happened next after this clip, you should def check it out if you already haven't!
"I was struggling for an ending for a long time." LOL
"Him and his wife...Laurie Sungleberger - what was their name again? I wrote this bit 25 minutes ago!" There's so much great stuff in the whole story, but this plus conan's resigned reaction is my favourite part.
I love Norm, he is very unconventionally funny. "They'll drive your head, Like the over ripe cantaloupe it looks like."
I love how his buildup to jokes are usually funnier then his punchline for them. Gives him a lot of freedom with his jokes since he isn't worried about making sure the Punchline is the big laugh instead he just focuses on making sure the entire joke is funny from start to finish like the moth joke he tells its so long that he has to make sure to remind the audience what's happening again towards the end just so they understand the punchline.
I never noticed this before
Wise Wolf Tony Norm’s genius is that the buildup is funnier than the punchline, and then he often explains the joke again after, which is even funnier than the buildup! I don’t think there is another comedian who has the timeline and delivery to get away with what he does so well.
Pretending to not know what deficit is despite having a tremendous grasp on Advanced mathematics, the most Norm thing ever. ❤
Tribute to one of the greatest comedians of our generation. In his own words, his battle with cancer was a draw. “I’m not a doctor, but I’m pretty sure that if you die, then the cancer also dies at the same time. “That to me is not a loss. That’s a draw.” RIP Norm...
In other words......"The Cure, for Cancer, is Death." Thanks, Norm (RIP). I had no idea.

Talk about a classy guy, I laughed my ass off for years watching Norm and had cancer for 9 years and never made it public.
Norm had such a massive brain. If he didn't, 90% of his material wouldn't have worked
"A groan is close to a laugh"--Dave Attell
As always, his absurd humor masks a savage critique of modern culture. "Sully" was the same guy before the mishap on the Hudson, yet nobody would want to see a movie about him then. The world is full of amazing people who nobody cares about just because they haven't had a horrendous near-tragic incident yet.
Norm is brilliant he can tell a 10 minute joke with little punchlines all along the way before he destroys with an ending. Norm also has this likable appeal. I feel like he's inviting us to operate at his level.
John Thomas Boy, that may be true. I’m no comedian, but sometimes when telling a story and someone interrupts with something stupid, I bring them or their stupid comment into the story, often completely derailing it, with the intent of not-friendly commentary of their comment, interrupting, or their inability to shut up and listen. But I’m not a particularly nice person. Maybe Norm is...
My favorite thing is that he talks like he's a total burnout and maybe not very smart, and he always has that grin on his face, so people underestimate him, and it's a terrible mistake
Sad but true the thing about humanity's yearn for tragedy. BUT THE MAN IS GREAT! Just discovered him - fell in love immediately 😁
"It pretty much lands itself." Genius.
Rest In Peace Norm. We'll miss our endlessly long jokes
How can he rest in peace, with all that dirt chucked on him forever? You know he hated that!
I have been watching lots of Norm Macdonald videos, in fact I'm addicted. RIP, what a great comedian he was.
Norm correctly predicted the nature of the Conan/Leno debacle and the Sully Movie. Too bad his "guys jumping off the top of buildings" investment didn't work out quite so well.
Norm was talking about Jay getting his own talk show which would air before Conan's Tonight show after Jay would (be forced to) leave the Tonight show. Norm was just joking around Jay outfoxing Conan because everyone was hoping it would be a win-win situation. (Please dont start a Conan/Leno flame war, I love both of them and the whole disaster was NBC's fault)

Conan: So you're afraid of these hobos? Norm: Of course I am! Me: Snorts milk out of nose.
The thing about Norm Macdonald, he has me falling off the bed laughing at something, that were it anyone else would have me cringing in horror. It is not even so much the joke/punchline as it is his delivery. The man is a treasure.
Reminds me of that tragedy
You can see Norm getting up to leave and Conan tells him to stay. He clearly loved having that guy there.
"I told you it's cheaper! We're saving up for the thing!"
I watched this in a coffee shop, and "We're saving up for the thing!" is the moment that one of the servers came over and literally asked me to leave.
ahh, so kitchener leslie became the very thing he tried to combat. Very interesting...
Atkins Paints The World! Officer Leslie became the thing he hated. 😂
Well done Hector

After uncle hector took his wife Leslie took to the drink

I will forever be a Conan fan if only how he treated and respected Norm.
Saw the "Sully" movie trailer with Tom Hanks, and immediately had to come here!!!
The way he gets up to walkaway and then stands there and conan says, "where are you going?" lmfaoo
Might be one of my low key fave Conan spots
"Sully Sullenberger: Airport Pilot". Bwahahaha.
