He’s brought Ryan the fictional character into life he will forever be known as Ryan there is no such thing as bj Novak anymore never the less this was pretty good laughed a few times seemed a little ridged the way he moved from joke to joke tho
Sad that he wouldn’t make many of these jokes today (though he should!). Conan wouldn’t either. These people have self-neutered to appease their woke overlords.
That’s a dundee winner right there. Respect.
Hottest in the office.
what is dundee winner
@@ilikeavacado it's from the office
@@moraolmdg12344 I see. I live in Dundee
Bushiest beaver
I can hear Michael Scott through these jokes
Because he was a writer of the show
Moaaz Mohamed no shit Sherlock
@@moaazmohamed49 /whoosh
The dead or alive joke especially
I can hear Michael saying ‘I’d probably choose alive’ 😂
the reverse psychology joke is what got him the job on the office
Really?
Didn't he write it?
@@lowbottomkowezus he was one of like 6 writers
He was cast after Greg Daniels heard his opening joke at a comedy club. Not necessarily this joke.
Robinson Crusoe Not to mention they both went to Harvard. It’s like they say, “Alums help alums”.
has Kelly seen this
Yeah, she won't stop talking about it.
@@ssrrapper lmaooo
Conan helped so many careers
You couldn't predict the punchline at all
He has great misdirection and timing
Yeah, I can't believe they let BJ do some of these jokes. Great at one-liners for sure. Dangerfield would've been proud.

The jokes are hilarious, the style is unrefined
The jokes are amazing the executions terrible (Michael Scott quote)
you realize this was literally 16 years ago right?

Fun fact: Greg Daniels heard the Psychology joke and that’s how he got his part in the office
Source?
@@likewtfbro_ It was a joke in a comedy club, not in this show. Don't know if the joke was the same there but I highly doubt it.
The emergency broadcasting system joke was A1
Such a difficult joke especially so close to the tragedy but he did pull it off.
He never processed 9/11
One of his best line, thank you for mentioning this
That was damn good for a rookie doing a 5-minute set!
So that’s why Ryan never fully processed 9/11
Hahahahahah
Also BJ was on a film called Reign Over Me which deals with 9/11
Never knew he did stand-up. I am impressed with how witty some of his jokes were. Clever.
He went to Harvard I just learned.
His timing is pretty good, but the transitions are kinda rough
yeah but it was pretty good for a rookie for a 5 min set. He probably knew he wouldn't have time for transitions
I think that was on purpose to be dry or something.
I was thinking that too. But like I could do better haha
SuperKrock5 no
I think it's non sequitur on purpose
These are way better than a lot of the stuff today
Too bad Twitter is too sensitive nowadays
The emergency broadcast bit was great
“Hey look! It’s the temp, it’s the temp!”
4:52 I forgot conan was a physical giant
He’s such a great writer, I wish there was more standup. A bit cerebral. Love it! He and Mindy could team up up like Steve Martin and Martin Short.
wow videos from 2004 look like the late fuckin 80’s nowadays
"Will the real Michael Scott please stand up" - BJ Novak
"Hey guys look, it's the temp"
This is the moment BJ Novak did stand up on the Conan O’Brien show.
Damn this guys jokes are on fire
He did start the fire
he's the fire guy for a reason
Reminder that this guy won a Dundie for Hottest in the Office...
He deserves it
🎶Ryan started the fire🎶
he didn't know he would later become Fire guy then fired guy and hired guy...lol
(Ryan uSe mE As a obJecT)
Cheese pitas melt steel beams
Omg 😂
The paula abdul one kills me
Such a great guy! So good at stand up.

Hows my favorite branch doing?
this is hilarious what are y'all on
That’s the worlds biggest Smokey Robinson fan right there.
He knows all his greatest songs.
OK first of all who is watching this in 2019? Second of all it’s just me or is he Kinda cute in a funny looking weird way?
Facts
Well, he won a dundie for being the hottest guy at his office, so
@@juanaabadiebottcher5508 omg he totally did lol!
I feel like Stanley's going to yell at him

FIRE GUY!!!! 🔥
That terrorist bit was too good and too accurate. 😂
The terrorist heaven joke was priceless
ngl he's definitely a bold comic
Hey fired guy...get it
Great product! But I can see why he would not land a sale ;)
dudes fire
He’s brought Ryan the fictional character into life he will forever be known as Ryan there is no such thing as bj Novak anymore never the less this was pretty good laughed a few times seemed a little ridged the way he moved from joke to joke tho
Well he’s a guest on the show so he has limited time, it’s not like it’s his own show where he has more freedom.
There is no BJ, there is only Ryan
“What is it gonna take for them to bust this system out? *starts fire*”
I'm surprised he made it on Conan. He's decent but it's very open mic-ish.
Kevin Hagler lol stfu
Both Harvard grads.
Dude this was funnier than professional sets I’ve paid to watch.
What's her face looks like she could be Frodo's sister
Boy have you lost your mind 'cause i'll help you find it
This reminds me of Jimmy Carr stand up years ago he used to do that literal /word play humour
Reminds me of a young Jon Lovits
Well, did Michael watch this?
fire guy
Pride of my hometown Newton Mass lol
Ryan started the fire
This is a actually pretty funny, expected it to suck.
I liked every single comments
The fire guy!
Was this before the office?
Fiirrrrrrreeeeddd guy!
Nice
He has an unusual style I’m sure doing stand up is harder then it looks
punkd? stand up comedian? i knew none of these things
Michael Scott actually asks him if he’s seen Punk’d when he pretend sacks Pam on his first day.,.
Fire guy
Jesselic type energy. I love it
Ryan started the fiire
Maybe I'm wrong, but I swear another comic (and writer on Conan) Andy Blitz did that same battered women joke about 5 years earlier...🤔
I have a question for this comic. How dare you?
Temp!
This dude is funny.
Reminds me of jeselnik.
“you may know him from punk”
me: “no? i know him as ryan howard”
hey self! the office didnt come out until a year AFTER this came out
Yeah the islamophobic jokes were really funny and great in a clever, subtle way...
90s haircut
Back in da day. Only this was 2004... 😄😄😄
And THIS crap got him a spot on the hit show The Office. This exact standup too.
Na it was funny. Edgy. But that’s some of the funniest stuff imo.
crap? Lol These jokes are made for the Office
Don't drop the soap, don't drop the soap!!
This is open mic material
It's like a cross between Demitri Martin and Anthony Jeselnik, without the confidence
Fire Guy
He crossed the line in some moments
Damn he sounds so uncomfortable and I dont blame him at all.
I'm here because of Maddie Bosch.
Very Mitch H.
Ryan from the Office
He's a better screen writer than a comedian. Good luck he did the office
WUPHF!
Wow the audience suck here, this was a great set
I am about people
Hottest in the Office!!
Also theres no such thing as free fall
Sad that he wouldn’t make many of these jokes today (though he should!). Conan wouldn’t either. These people have self-neutered to appease their woke overlords.
Edgy!
I hv 4 words: He Is Soo Awkward?! 😵
Hired guy:)
What was that? Hey you're on TV. I am shocked I expected ...better?
That Paula Abdul joke was so mean
Eh.
that was weird
I agree, he is talented in other areas but this was different.
@@28goldenboy yeah it's probably because there's no connection between the jokes.
@@spractive1264 Or maybe that's his style? Which would explain a lot of his work on the office.
Sub-par at best. A clusterf**k at worst.
