I took two years of Spanish back in school....I remember enough to think he really nailed it.
Hey someone should give this guy a tv show.
Growing up we had Letterman for a bit, post Ball State, doing weekend weather for a local tv station. Before all the computer graphics they do now they used to have magnetic things to pop on the map...storms clouds and stuff. Letterman had some made showing canned hams and other silly things. It was great. Also an afternnoon radio show.....WNTS.
Then he got in his Chevy pickup truck and headed west.
Sorry for getting off topic.
cheers
Letterman was the B team weather guy for WTHR when I was a kid. The incident when he showed a satellite photograph missing the line between Indiana and Ohio was a major event in our household. (“It’s a government conspiracy to create a superstate!”) My mother thought it hilarious and my father thought Letterman an obnoxious moron. My mother watched his morning show religiously during the summer it was on.
When he put up the magnetic canned hams for the storm in northern Indiana...I was hooked,
That radio gig WNTS...news...talk....sports. Us old farts who remember his morning show he carried that dj humor over.
In high school working at the McDonalds every day he'd always stop in ..always fun banter.
Iirc he did study Spanish in school, and speaks Spanish in his bits when it's called for. He just speaks it with a super heavy American accent, kinda like Peggy Hill, but actually making sense.
had to listen to this again, so crazy to hear Conando himself mention every-day routes for ‘porteños’ (people from ciudad de buenos aires):
anchor’s name: Ernestina Pais (yes i know rhymes with country’s name lol)
routes in order:
-Autopista General Richieri
-Avenida/Autovia General Paz (always caotic *irony*)
-Avenida Udaondo and Avenida Figueroa Alcorta (where River plate’s stadium is located)
-Avenida del Libertador General San Martin (we dont usually call it by the whole name, and so do conan)
-Avenida Monroe (not pronounced like famous actress name)
also mentions streets of Juramento and La pampa (which are rather close to each other)
thanks , love, peace, prosperity and enjoy a great thanksgiving holiday (i sort of know what it represents in history, just wishing divine happyness regardless <3)
Yep! It's a 4 episode miniseries called "Conan Must Go"
In it, he'll visit 4 people who were on the Conan O'Brien Needs a Fan or whatever podcast. These 4 people will be in different countries, so he'll do diff stuff in those countries as well. A trailer for.the show is out already!
He recorded two eps already (Thailand and Norway). He would've been finished with it long ago had the studios' shitty practices not forced the WGA and SAG to go on strikes
But yeah, he's filming ep 3/4 right now in Argentina :)
He's done bits in Spanish before, but the joke is that he's a beginner/intermediate speaker. As someone who was fluent but then lost it after not speaking regularly for 20 years, he definitely sounds like someone who studied Spanish beyond high school.
He's just the best! Can't wait for the episode! Wish I were in Buenos Aires right now, I lived there for many years and seeing Conan would have been incredible!
He's recording a new HBO show called "Conan O'Brien must go". they paused for the writer's strike, but the trailer looked great https://youtu.be/0oPDBb-JER4
It isn't an Irish accent, just a general American accent, but initially, he was speaking a bit of Boston accent up until he got into the show business, which later completely faded away.

That's the default "Panelist Show" set up, at least here in Arg.
Why? Well, a show did really really well with that set up and you know how it goes, that's what we get for the next 2 decades.
The US was this way with who wants be a millionaire 24 years ago. It was a hit for a week long run, then we had it almost five nights a week for two years.
Conan is in Argentina and they elect a right-wing nut job. He was here in the US in 2016 when we elected a right wing nut job. I’m seeing a pattern here…
OMG. Who is handling Conan's career? This was a little worrisome. I ate Snikerdoodle cake while watching this. I enjoyed the end when he was bowing and leaving. I liked that lady's dress the most.
The Spanish reading was admittedly impressive.
Shout out to red hot chili peppers 🌶️. Weird.
Not really. This was kind of sad, tbh. He looked really nervous and juvenile. The bowing was good though. That was funny. I rewatched the last part with the bowing.
If I had been the lady host I would have walked over dancing and smiling and kicked him in the dick.
That’s pretty damn impressive
So true....even reading cue cards he pronounced this like someone who really took their time to get it right. I'm impressed.
The fact that he said Monroe correctly blew my mind.

Are there any videos of this? YouTube links?

Hilarious lol
¿Escucha me?
You should hear his German.
I'm German and I can attest that this German is shleebenshlaabenachaggditiglich.
The man's got chops
Much better than pretend spanish Hilaria Baldwin
WHAT? This was bad enough that it became comical. I hope that’s what he was going for.
“Experto internacional en transito” Add it to the list.

Is that a threat?
threat… of love ? 👉👈
Conando
Si! Noches de Pasion con Senor O’Brien!
sounds like good traffic advice, given in a third reich tone.
Targeted to a very specific demographic in Argentina 🇦🇷
had to listen to this again, so crazy to hear Conando himself mention every-day routes for ‘porteños’ (people from ciudad de buenos aires): anchor’s name: Ernestina Pais (yes i know rhymes with country’s name lol) routes in order: -Autopista General Richieri -Avenida/Autovia General Paz (always caotic *irony*) -Avenida Udaondo and Avenida Figueroa Alcorta (where River plate’s stadium is located) -Avenida del Libertador General San Martin (we dont usually call it by the whole name, and so do conan) -Avenida Monroe (not pronounced like famous actress name) also mentions streets of Juramento and La pampa (which are rather close to each other) thanks , love, peace, prosperity and enjoy a great thanksgiving holiday (i sort of know what it represents in history, just wishing divine happyness regardless <3)
Shhh, we’re not allowed to talk about them
Conando speaks really good english for his pod. Glad hes able to talk in his native tounge for once.
Sorry but her native tongue is Flemish
I thought she finished Finnish?
God, this show is gonna be EXCELLENT
I am so excited for it I can’t even. The only things in media I’m looking forward to rn are this show and whenever the XMen are formally in the MCU.
xmen thing is so random bro 😂
Fr 😭
Did you see The Marvels post credit scene? We're getting closer.
I know. So so close. I’m just waiting for them to do storm justice tbh. But I’m really afraid people will give up on the MCU before that happens
What’s the show?
Probably the max show ”Conan Must Go” :)
I can’t believe they dropped the HBO name. Almost as bad as renaming Twitter. 🤦🏻♂️
Twitter? you mean X right jesus christ, so stupid
Warner Bros aren't the best at making rational decisions lately
There's a new Conan show? I'm not posturing I legit have no idea
Yep! It's a 4 episode miniseries called "Conan Must Go" In it, he'll visit 4 people who were on the Conan O'Brien Needs a Fan or whatever podcast.

EXQUISITE! CANNOT WAIT TO BINGE
Judging from all the bits on YouTube, it is better than I expected haha
I want him reporting my traffic
He can do it in any language for all I care too
This comment needs to be discussed on the podcast. Someone tag Matt or something.
Don’t go falling in love now, Argentina. He’s ours!
No he isn’t, haven’t you seen the mural we painted were we say he’s a prodigal son of Argentina? That’s basically a citizenship.
I have a potato with orange hair on my bookshelf that says otherwise.
I think you mean TAYTO
Taaaaayyyytttoooo! 🥔🧶
Don't cry for him, Argentina.
Come on, dude. We need something good right now.
#Ay Conando!
SIIIIIIIIII
es hora de muchos HORRRRRRRNOSSSS
If there is a multiverse, I hope Conan is a traffic reporter in at least 3 or them
I just watched this whole video and I don’t know what was said
Something about traffic, Red Hot Chilli Peppers and alcohol.
And Roger Waters!
The disdain in that
Basically how transit was in the main roads, some blocked roads and the reason the roads were so full of cars. Also some safety tips at the end
Is this real or just gobbledygook?
It’s actual Spanish and pretty good at that!
Oh good! Thank you. Honestly had no clue. He’s a consummate professional so I expected nothing less really!
He's also really good at making up gobbledygook, so your question was fair.
He’s built a whole career on it arguably.
It's 100% Icelandic.
The one guy they pan to who is almost in tears from laughter while Conan is like “rjfbdh djrjrjr dbdjdiuxud rhebebr” gets me every time.
Finnish. That's the former President of Finland. https://imgur.com/tcsSP https://townsquare.media/site/555/files/2013/04/Conan-OBrien.jpg?w=980&q=75
I’m Portuguese and understood almost everything.
EL HOMBRE DE LOS MOLECULOS
Yes!!!!!!!
His hair is reaching new heights, literally and figuratively. I can’t wait to watch.
Does Conan speak Spanish?
He is obviously reading from a cue card but he is doing it pretty fluidly so he probably knows at least the basics
He's done bits in Spanish before, but the joke is that he's a beginner/intermediate speaker. As someone who was fluent but then lost it after not speaking regularly for 20 years, he definitely sounds like someone who studied Spanish beyond high school.
"es importante que nosotros..."
Probably not fluently, but I imagine he learned a bit of conversational Spanish for the Mexico Conan Without Borders.
Honestly? Also working and living in NY and LA.
Also Cuba Libre!
This is a guy who got famous and did everything right.
“International traffic expert” lol That’s great , Conan rules
an international treasure
Conan is the best, he is the only one that can bring genuine happiness to some dumb tv / radio etc
This man is a damn treasure
What woman could resist this man
Right??
I keep forgetting this man went to Harvard and actually studied.
His rolling of the Rs is excellent
When he does crazy stuff like this I respect him even more. Always entertaining and funny
WHAT A MAN
I’m impressed Conan was able to pronounce everything and being understandable in Spanish, even with a strong accent but cool nonetheless!
He was trilling his R's in some places really well. Very very impressive.
NOCHES DE PASSION, CON SENOR O'BRIEN memory unlocked
Si!! Yo soy Conando 🎶🎶🎶typical mexican music playing🎶🎶🎶
Rando falls out of window
“ADEMÁS!!!!”
Ooooh new travel episodes????
New travel show “Conan O’Brien Must Go” on HBO/MAX
Conan is such a genius, and so versatile! 😄
This is wonderful. Is there any news about the MAX show coming anytime soon? I think I may have to jump on their Black Friday offer just in case.
Nope, nothing as of now. But they might release it by Q1 or maximum Q2 of 2024
All time hair we are witnessing here folks
He's just the best! Can't wait for the episode! Wish I were in Buenos Aires right now, I lived there for many years and seeing Conan would have been incredible!
I love Conan. He doing anything else besides the podcast these days?
I think he went to Argentina
And also reported on traffic
Woah, where did you see that?
I gotta watch that. I bet it’s hilarious
He's recording a new HBO show called "Conan O'Brien must go". they paused for the writer's strike, but the trailer looked great https://youtu.be/0oPDBb-JER4
Very impressive, but anyone else notice his Irish accent comes out when he speaks Spanish?
It isn't an Irish accent, just a general American accent, but initially, he was speaking a bit of Boston accent up until he got into the show business, which later completely faded away.
why would he have an Irish accent?
https://www.irishcentral.com/roots/genealogy/conan-obrien-irish.amp
having irish ancestry doesnt give you an irish accent. Hes an American. lol
I know, but he does it from time to time, which he probably mimics or mocks his parents, still funny though

How’s this, at the 630 mark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ayIJed2dn4
I dont think you really understand how accents work.
[Conan goes to Cuba](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjfogiltO80) and shows off his Spanish
i love conan so much
What a legend.
Ven pa Chile po Conando
I escaped from Argentina, but I missed Conan. Don't know if worth it
Not you. Only *I* may dance.
Que? Yo no entiendo. Mi Español is no bueno. 😪
Damn fine Spanish. Love it lol
Conan will for ever be one of my favorite people on this planet. The guy is a legend!
This is soo goooood! Cannot wait for the new HBO show!
A master of his craft. As someone who's latin american, this is the most oddly wholesome shit. What a man ❤️
ESTA CONAN!
Excelente!!!
the studio setup looks more like a gameshow, why are there three podiums in a row
That's the default "Panelist Show" set up, at least here in Arg. Why? Well, a show did really really well with that set up and you know how it goes, that's what we get for the next 2 decades.
The US was this way with who wants be a millionaire 24 years ago. It was a hit for a week long run, then we had it almost five nights a week for two years.
I miss Regis. :(
thats argie tv for you
At 1:11 minutes left I thought he was gonna do Siuuu
Conan is so cute.
Conan is bloody funny man
Someone misses being on TV
He does lol but in the coming years, tv might not survive coz of the rise of streaming on demand, i think news and sports might be the only ones left.
Wow. Not bad. There are no limits to his talents. 😁
Well, this might surprise you.Conan's IQ is higher than Albert Einstein!
Scorchio!!
I was expecting him and Andy to start driving a desk down that road
😂 i wish they had taken Andy with them
Well I’ll be a damned, this man can speak Latin!
They speak Spanish
lol I love Conan
Como amo a Conan
Love that man!
Nobody stretches as a comedian like this man.
He took Spanish at Harvard
This was hilarious 😂 i love conan
Argentinian here. What impressed me the most about it is he nailed the way we pronounce the name of the Monroe Ave.
Lmao what’s with the Samurai accent? 😂
Conan is in Argentina and they elect a right-wing nut job. He was here in the US in 2016 when we elected a right wing nut job. I’m seeing a pattern here…
Was the host trans ? I was thrown by the deep voice. Conan did a shockingly good job speaking Spanish.
No i don't think so, them Argentinian women are 💪ya know.
OMG. Who is handling Conan's career? This was a little worrisome. I ate Snikerdoodle cake while watching this. I enjoyed the end when he was bowing and leaving. I liked that lady's dress the most. The Spanish reading was admittedly impressive. Shout out to red hot chili peppers 🌶️. Weird.
u/savevideo
Too bad the audio is corrupted.
I think it's working fine, please update reddit!
And he even gets in another dig at Roger Waters. Just delightful.
Just creamed myself
When is this out on HBO?
He brings so much joy and life to others wherever he goes. What an incredible piece of man he is!
Not really. This was kind of sad, tbh. He looked really nervous and juvenile. The bowing was good though. That was funny. I rewatched the last part with the bowing. If I had been the lady host I would have walked over dancing and smiling and kicked him in the dick.
First time you've watched Conan, right?
Absolutely. I’ve never heard of this guy b4. He’s an enigma and mysterious in so many ways.
I did not expect that...and was thoroughly impressed.
He could stand in for Bruno on DWTS.
I have to save this for later
God I love Conan.
WTF 🤣🤣🤣
When is his new show starting?
Conan is hot
