harrison must actually like conan, i could never imagine him doing podcasts 😂
He’s promoting a movie man. It’s called a press junket. He’s going everywhere talking to anyone
@@Whatarewetalkingabouthere i know i was just being ironic
@@WhatarewetalkingabouthereIt is for promotion, but he's not going around giving hour long interviews on podcasts everywhere, man, be real. This grumpy mf has always liked Conan.
@@shutup2751 that didn’t come across at all. Lol. Have a good day
@@Whatarewetalkingabouthere bro my point is harrison's whole personality just comes across as the type that doesn't do podcasts, i'm just saying it's funny seeing him do one because he aint seem like that type of guy
He's a master of Deadpan. And he's not even faking it. Absolute legend.
You will go places, Kurt O'Fair. Please do more comedy.
Kurt O'fair. German Irish ;)
@@Wildery91 Uh, no. Internet access to people with little critical thinking is a bad thing, as you're displaying.
I mentally spelled Curt with a C..... I'm so ashamed...
Curt Affair.
@@patrickmanion9646same
Harrison Ford's delivery is absolutely insane, he was just spitting fire during the whole episode lol
"...that was stupid, wasn't it?"
"Where is he now?"
"Exactly"
It's unreal how quick and funny he is.
It’s clear why he is where he is today, he is just so good
I’ve seen him laugh when something is funny
I almost fell asleep watching this video
@@EmiliaMitchell-uy5om You are the person that had to chime in to say you dislike something that everyone else in the room has been enjoying
You can tell Mr. Ford was very proud when Conan said “I think you’ve been good to show business”. What an episode.
Yes he felt that ❤
@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist
Ezekiel 23:20 HPB
"Ova dea she stay hot up fo her Egypt guys. Dea private parts stay big jalike da donkeys, an da sperm dey shoot jalike from da horses."
Waah
@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist. Amen
THat's the kind of phrase that inflate his ego too.
Harrison Ford telling Conan how he interrupts every story and Conan puts his head down and goes completely red in embarrassment is my favorite part.
I noticed that too. He was genuinely embarrassed from that.😂
@@roems6396 Makes sense, he's an experienced talk show host, that has to be an embarrassing thing for him.
So good XD
Typical middle child behavior
My favorite part was when he said "do these people get to talk at all?". Been thinking the same thing for years. Conan does all the talking in these podcasts and everyone else just sits there and laughs into the mic. What Harrison said was the most down-to-earth thing I've ever heard from an actor and I love him so much more for it.
The best episode by far.
👍
i like it
Great wark
Hii
It belongs in a museum
It's a crime he hasn't done more comedy.
ITA! He has a dry sense of humor and fantastic comedic timing. I hope he does in some upcoming projects.
And yet his humor is there even in some of his action roles like Han Solo or Indiana. Both those characters are funny at times and Harrison always kills the humor and timing
You know what, he does kind of remind me a bit of Leslie Nielsen.
@@stridermthat's funny because Leslie always reminded me of a goofier version of Harrison.
he's very funny in Shrinking and seems to actually be having fun
it's so amazing how Ford doesn't flinch or crack up haha his delivery is awesome
He speaks just like Joe Biden. It's really interesting. Yet no one beats up on Ford.
@@tmattoneill because he's not the president, is a beloved actor, and seems like a cool guy who isn't a racist & corrupt politician. also he can speak a coherent sentence and doesn't forget where he is every 15 minutes
@@thedinkster9553okay
@@thedinkster9553 "a racist & corrupt politician. also he can speak a coherent sentence"
Nobody was talking about *Rump dude. Why bring him up?
He cracked once near the end when Conan called him out for being obsessed with Jerry.
Conan made a joke with Harrison Ford during his show twenty years ago about him making more Indiana Jones when he's 80. 😅 He was spot on
"the treasures are just brought to you... "
Indiana Jones and the Comfortable Bed
@@krossbow_ I think it was "comfortable chair", but it works either way.
@@krossbow_ jajajajaja
And it's the worst movie disney ever made. How sad
That perfectly timed "Exactly" when Sona asked where Jerry was now is priceless. So was her reaction to it.
of all the interviews I've seen Harrison in through the years, he really could have been a stand up comedian. He is very quick witted and his call backs are very well timed!
Great deadpan delivery too.
yeah, probably why he got the role as han solo.
Agreed! Though that is more improv instead of stand up
Yeah, his delay on “Jerry Takovsky” is on point
Yup, relaxed and in no rush which gives him perfect timing for dry roasted humor. He also paints a picture with his stories. Unfortunately being a 10 billion dollar movie star got in the way.
This is probably the most talkative I have ever seen him in an interview like personal and open up wise. That says alot about the Power of Big Red.
When he was with Ryan gosling he was cracking up all the time
He gives good interviews from time to time, presumably only when he genuinely likes the person interviewing him.
My favourite was when he was on Australian television and the interviewer asked him what he thought about Donald Trump (this was the year before)... Look it up: it's gold. "It was a movie, Donald. It wasn't real. But what would you know?"
Conan is in the all time
@@acutelilmint8035 Im sure you drive thru large puddles in an attempt to soak people.
Gourley is just the goddamn best- that “Physician, heal thyself” pull was lightning fast and perfectly delivered.
I felt an odd vicariously pride that he made his hero laugh.
Gourley has Andy Richter like abilities as a comedy sniper: doesn't say much, but when he does, it's one shot, one kill.
That "let's bring him in" line at the end was great too
I envy Gourley his skills. He's snappy in the best way.
I feel stupid for not having noticed that myself. You are 100%correct He is just as fast and precise.
Jerry Tokofsky was the movie executive who told a young Harrison Ford in 1967 "You're not gonna make it, because when Tony Curtis did his first film, he delivered a bag of groceries. You looked at him and said 'That guy's a star!'". And Ford responded "I thought you were supposed to think 'That guy's a grocery delivery boy.'" and Tokofsky said "Get out of my office!".
Ha! Brilliant!
Tony Curtis real name?
Bernie Herschel Schwartz
the only name more ethnic than Jerry Tokofsky
Classic Ford response. I believe every word of it.
Sona and Matt are like the most well behaved children on this episode. They have the look of children sitting in the library during story time.
Sona needs her own show.
Seriously. Some side hosts when they laugh will lean into the mic just to make the point their laughing.
They know how to be polite but still appreciate the guest and hear them laugh in the background.
@@jbenjamgmailno
His one liners are such killers. When he says “I don’t mind looking rude” 😂I’m like daaaaayum, but then again it’s classic Harrison Ford, the audacity, the irreverence and yet so calm and collected as he adjust his seat with that “like I give a rat’s ass” attitude, OMG only he can make it so cool.
"OK, what's my name?" Perfectly feigned struggle to remember, then the lightbulb..."Conan...O'Brien".
So nice to see Harrison Ford seemingly enjoying himself in an interview! That alone is proof of Conan’s incredible interviewing skills!
Ask a question?? Interupt the guest, enought that he calls you out on it,ON THE AIR??????? great skills yeap!!!!
@@relentlessmadmanyeah but the chemistry tho
Yeah, Conan gave him a good cue when he dropped an F bomb early. He's the best.
I absolutely adore Harrison Ford. The acting, the humor, the voice. 😙🤌🏾
"I'M NOT SHOUTING" 10:23
@@SlytherinGuy 🤣🤣
For me, it was his reply when Mark Hamill said, "Do you think a princess could ever....a guy like me?"
I love how even Harrison was about to crack when he brought up Jerry Tokovski again at the end. Great comedic timing.
Sona “I’m really into this Jerry Tukofsky character arc…”
Harrison “ It’s over”
😂 underrated moment.
This was one of those episodes that I immediately replayed after finishing it the first time.
Same I listend to it three times in one day lol
The rapport between Conan and Harrison is otherworldly. I could watch them talk to each other for hours.
The best episode by far. I could listen to Harrison for hours. His sense of humor and timing are insane.
man what a legend. you can't stop listening to harrison ford. not only he's effortlessly funny, but also his voice makes you feel like a 5 year old who looks at him like he's got all the answers and you have to listen to him carefully :)
Jerry Takovsky's been real silent ever since this podcast has come out. 👀
He's probably dead.
@@jackxiao9702 apparently he's still alive. He's 88 years old, and as far as I can tell he's retired.
sona is so great to have along. she just can not contain herself when she begins to laugh. so fun.
You mean the way she brings things to a screeching halt when she chimes in, or just the overly aggressive laughing?
@@RedRocket415 Neither.
@@RedRocket415come on man. She brings in so much good energy into the pod. I don't think these clips would have more than 70k views without her laughing in the background. She is wonderfull
@@RedRocket415this podcast isn't for you. Sona's laughter is one of the best parts. If you don't like it, you need to evaluate why you're such an unhappy sourpuss.
@@robertjusic9097 are you dumb lmao. its harrsion ford and conan, sona has nothing to do with the views.
I picture Jerry Tarkovsky listening to this in the dark, drinking straight whiskey, as a single tear runs down his face.
This was tremendous. What a great dynamic the whole room has. Loved seeing Harrison riff so hard with Coco.
This proves what I often thought -- when people complained that Harrison had become a grumpy old man -- they were missing that it was a bit!
Im sure its genuinely deserved most of the time. The press junket has to be an absolute hell.
I think he was like this even when he was much younger.
He not grumpy, he just acting.
I think beside their overall history, Harrison Ford lets loose on Conan mostly because he’s himself and Conan doesn’t waste Ford’s time with inane questions (sans the typical ones about whatever Ford is promoting). Conan is a great interviewer and always has been!
It's so crazy how Harrison Ford has a reputation for being a bad interview. You just have to know how to talk to him, and realize that he doesn't give a crap about the character continuity of Han Solo!
Idk about that, Harrison half-jokingly remarked that he can't finish his story because Conan constantly interrupts him. Solid interviewer, but the remotes are where he shines
@@suedenimexactly he's not necessarily a star wars super fan, it's his job
@@nonpondo_ Actors (except the ones who are also writers or directors) usually don't think about movies the same way most fans do. They're less interested in plot or story, more in things like their own craft, how they mesh with their scene partners, that sort of thing.
Occasionally, I've seen actors unintentionally reveal in interviews that they entirely missed the point of their own movie. But the interesting thing is, it doesn't typically hurt their performance.
Gourley did a great job holding his hero worship in. Nice job. 🙂 👍
perhaps he took some of his anti-inflamatory medicine beforehand.
I almost wish he hadn't.
I always used to think Harrison Ford was a real curmudgeon after seeing his interviews over the years, but its very clear here I may have mistaken it for bone dry excellent humor, he is so hilarious and rides that line between authentic annoyance and admiration really well here.
He just doesnt give a crap about pretending to go along with terrible interviews where he gets asked the same stupid questions over and over again.
Nah a lot of it is an act he trolls alot😂
Watch him with Ryan gosling. 😂😂they a comedy duo
The older I get, the more I connect with his grumpy sense of humour. He's a legend.
Why not both?
Harrison was killing it. This made me so happy to see him feel comfortable ❤️
"Indiana Jones and the Comfortable Bed." -Conan 7/25/2000
(predicted the future of new Indy movie when Ford is 80)
Harrison is a damn legend. I wish he did more comedy on the big screen. So fantastic.
When reading Jerry Takofsky's Wikipedia, his firing of Harrison Ford is prominent in the first couple of paragraphs. I guess he really was never able to live that down telling him "When Tony Curtis delivered a bag of groceries, he did it like a movie star. You just ain't got it kid." He's still alive and kicking too.
Harrison Ford is the best kind of grumpy. He has that deadpan gruffness to him that if you understand it and don't get star struck by him, you can have fun with him. Conan gets it and this interview is goddamn fantastic.
Absolutely hilarious interview. Loved every second of it. Did anyone notice Harrison Ford didn't do the SmartLess podcast yet this summer? Love seeing Conan getting Harrison "exclusively".
“Where is he now?”…”exactly😎” ford is cold 😂
Haha this is very cool. Harrison seems like a man that is a little grumpy that he's getting old but is also aware that he's lived a full and extraordinary life. He is a class act and is pretty humble for someone that has been pretty much universally adored for nearly 5 decades. When he and Clint Eastwood pass will be sad days indeed.
Oh man, Harrison Ford is so damn funny. I can totally see him as Frank Drebin, delivering all the funniest lines without flinching.
It'd be so fun if he did a Naked Gun movie
Conan is a master. Loved the Eric Andre interview for the hilarious back and forth riffing, and the chemistry with the legendary Harrison Ford is such a great thing to witness. This podcast gets better and better, and you see just how honed and at ease Conan is pivoting from reverential to deeply funny in an instant. Always insightful, with a nose for the absurdly funny, my favorite late night personality since the early 90s is still a force for good in this world
Harrison Ford is witty af. He could do stand up.
He knows 😂
This was without doubt THE best interview they've done. No one else comes close. HF is absolutely hilarious.
The chemistry is freaking great! Conan is probably the only host that can keep up with Harrison Ford
he's so damn witty for his age.
WTF? You think age has anything to do with a sense of humor? What a miserable way to think.
He's too witty for any age lmfao
He’s actually had a very sharp and dry wet his entire career. When he’s doing a press junket or a late night talk show and he likes the interviewer, he’ll reward them
9:07 Set up and delivery of this punch were pitch perfect.
Your performance in "Patriot Games" was a clinic in method acting, you are a complete inspiration to us all, God Bless you, Harrison 🙏
Harrison's sense of humor is the same as ever but somehow it just gets better with age
“Where is he now?” “Exactly” sick burn
14:36 Notice how Harrison was looking under the table for Jerry Tokofsky 😂
This was THE BEST interview of Harrison Ford. Kudos to Conan for riding this horse PERFECTLY.
Kurt Affair, the Irish German.
Matt was SO quick with that "physician heal thyself" joke.
Harrison Ford is so laid back. He's clearly not chiseled from the common Hollywood architype and I appreciate it. Of all the Star Wars characters Han Solo was it for me...and damn if I didn't want to sport that Empire Strikes Back jacket.
Y’all gotta put up the full podcast, truly might be the greatest episode of it that’s ever come out
I stand by my prediction that Harrison Ford will receive an honorary Oscar.
It is a shame he didn't.
Him, Tom Cruise and a few others. Yes, he has to be up on that stage holding a statuette, not just announcing it.
If Brad Pitt can receive one while being an average actor, then people like Ford more than easily deserve it for their excellent work.
I really do hope they just release the full video because hearing the podcast is funny as hell, but it’s much more hilarious seeing it with your very own eyes 😂😂😂
I want to see the bit where they discuss him having a drink of water. I assume he spat the water back in the glass, but the sound it made... I laughed SO hard at that bit.
When Conan tells Harrison Ford he didn't "pop" in Star Wars... I thought Coco was a dead man😂😂😂. This episode was perfect. I've listened a few times to catch what I missed laughing my ass off.
My jaw dropped! *Jerry Tokofsky* is my neighbor! He’s actually a really nice guy and told me a lot of Hollywood stories. Was working in the mailroom when Katherine Hepburn took a liking to him (when he delivered a package to her house in his early 20s). She and Spencer took him under his wing. I can understand why he hasn’t told *this* story though… 🙉but do want to say for his sake he’s *not a pool cleaner* and seems to be doing ok with or without one of the greatest stars of all time and my personal favorite the “pretentious” Harry Ford. Loved this so much and tempted to talk to Jerry about this 🙊 🤣😎🥳
Let us know how it goes!
Jerry Tokofsky was producer of some notable films: Glengarry Glen Ross, 9 1/2 Weeks, Where's Poppa? among them.
@@pineconey yes! We’ve talked about Jack Lemmon a lot! I’ve been away from home, so I haven’t had a chance to talk to him yet. But I will 🌅😎🥳
Well, don't leave us hanging. You actually can ask him about Harrison Ford and try to get an honest answer from him. Go ahead and let us know.
@@MikeBrownLegend Will do! I’m genuinely curious what he has to say! 😅
I desperately need the entire episode uploaded in video form
all things considered, Harrison is a pretty chill dude.
Harrison Ford be having me on the floor dying every time 🤣🤣🤣
The amount of vitriol he has for Jerry Takovski is just astounding. Every breath he takes without exacting some kind of vengeance is one he considers wasted.
I knew Harrison Ford can be funny in the TV show like when he smashed Jordan Millenium Falcon set but didnt knew he can also be comedic in a podcast. So much respect for him and his roasts 😂👏
What a treasure this man… he is hilarious without effort. One of the few Hollywood Legends
I loved this episode SO MUCH. Harrison is such a funny guy. Pleeeeease upload the video of Bley talking to Harrison. I laughed so hard. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for this episode. Love Harrison. Legend.
That was so hilarious 😂😂😂😂 Freaking Bley😂
I listened to the Bley portion while driving. I laughed so hard, very dangerous. They should put a warning in the podcast to pull over before listening to the next few minutes.
Came here to say this!! I really hope they upload that bit 😂 Bley is a legend
Was that the part about the shirt? Because I laughed so hard, I cried.....
I literally replayed that part like 15 times. I was laughing so hard at work lmao
Harrison can make the entire room howl while keeping a straight face. Legend.
Such a good interview! 😂 I’ve never seen HF this relaxed or engaged before!
Harrison has such good comedic sense as well as gravitas.
Jesus... Harrison is funny as hell. He puts most comedians to shame.
Funny. Harrison sets, volleys, and spikes with a straight face. I love it
Genuinely one of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to lmao. Harrison is so quick witted. So thankful he’s still in good heath and sharp as ever
Have you seen the movie? You'll love it from beginning to end. Pure fun. And love.
Man these 2 should make a comedy movie together the improvising alone would be hilarious. Harrison is low key funny AF 😂😂😂
Harrison Ford should live at LEAST 200 years, that's how important he is to this world's sanity!
Mr Ford's dry putdowns of Conan, and Sona's thumbs up for the put downs are a real treat. Thanks Conan & co.
Harrison Ford reminds me so much of my grandfather, the same comedy and the same manner of speech. It’s freaking hilarious
I feel like Harrison ha a very British sense of humor.
This is the BEST episode of ALL TIME. The man is absolutely hilarious. I've never laughed like that. Thank you.
at that age to have that level of wit and spontaneity...hats off mr ford...
it's so amazing how Ford doesn't flinch or crack up haha his delivery is awesome indeed!
I want to use that on someone next argument, "Well, you're wrong. You're wrong. Your brother is wrong."
Both these guys telling their stories should be animated lol. Harrison Ford is so funny. I find there interviews the most entertaining.
I was so lucky to meet Harrison Ford on K-19
He was so kind and a true gentleman - he greeted me as i was entering a Submarine docking bay - He jumped out of his lawn chair and said hi so happily - i was star struck and taken back - i asked if he’s okay and he said he was just their to say hi to me !!! He opened his arms and i gave him a big hug and a handshake !! The AD started calling for me and like magic he was gone - no-one believed me until later ! ! I felt like a kid again ! He was my superhero as a kid as Han solo and still today !! True - so much fun to remember ! so thankful
My god, Harrison barely does interviews or talks, but he's funny as hell! This was great.
Watch him with Ryan gosling😂😂 those r some of the funniest intefvies
conan and harrison's chemistry is amazing.
Harrison Ford is a king of the deadpan delivery. Funny guy. Great actor.
I watched a lot of Gunsmoke, Bonanza, and even The Virginian.
I used to watch it with my late grandfather who loved westerns.
I was watching one day and recognized a young Harrison Ford during an episode.
I was surprised and couldn't believe it.
Great to hear it actually discussed in his presence.
I love how Harrison says something hilarious and then while every one else is cracking up he's almost sat looking like "what? It wasn't a joke, I was being serious."
I listened to this in my car a couple of days ago and - even piped through my speakers could hardly hear Harrison with his low register growl voice.
If I turned it up, it was just loud peals of Sona laughing. (Which is pretty hilarious in itself...)
Was so waiting for this to show up on TH-cam.
You have to see that deadpan to get the full effect.
Hope Team Coco recommends all the old show interviews too..
This man is one of the best American actors to ever appear in film....he and Jack Nicholson are two for the ages.....
Nicholson is skilled, yes.... but i much prefer harrisons personality, plus he's skilled as well.
I never laughed so hard during a podcast ! I almost wrecked my car twice ! Best Conan podcast ever !!
I had to pull over during the recent bidet ad read, I thought I was going to die
"Well, no, uh, I, not really" 😂 @5:09
Great interview, it's good to see a more real Harrison than what you can see in traditional TV evening phones. Also, Conan looks toasted by the sun.
10:16 LOLLLL
I listened to the pod the other day and had to come here to see the level of animosity in his face with that first name drop. Not disappointed
i love that Harrison went from his interview voice to his acting voice at 10:15
i almost expected him to say "get off my plane"
2:42 Who else thought that was their watch and looked around for it?
Are they friends in real life? Because their banter is insanely hilarious
Harrison genuinely likes Conan. He would never do a podcast but he did with Conan and you can just tell he's having a great time.
I listened to the whole podcast, loved every second - but it's not enough!
Please upload the whole thing, @TeamCoco!
Always enjoy Harrison Ford's dry wit.
"Where is he now?"
"Exactly."
Harrison is one hell of a funny man. Dude never did comedies but I think he would slay in them
He was on Anchorman 2 where he turned into a were hyena
