When someone likes Conan this way, I instantly trust them

[MrCoffeejingler]

Hes got tears in his eyes telling this story

[roxnpennies]

You can feel his genuine love and admiration for Conan when you hear his voice break and see his eyes tear up. They’re both great guys.

[MyLuggage]

Smart and self-deprecating is pretty clear to anyone who watches him, but you can only really suspect that he's also very kind. It doesn't surprise me one bit to hear that he is from someone who knows him well.

[nebulousisgod]

Well, Conan is truly one of the funniest people in the history of humanity. A good portion of the best of the Simpsons years was written by him.

[JeenRsHeart]

You don't hear anyone talking about Ellen like this.

[Cuppamilky]

Look at his eyes. This is what honesty and true feelings look like. Even Larry seems smitten!

[anima]

The way he almost lost his breath talking about how great Conan is as a boss and person, it's like he's been waiting for someone to ask that question for a decade.

John is a good guy, and Emily is a very lucky girl

[Nicoyutub]

that's such a cute anecdote, good on him

[sisigpapi]

Conan deserves all that praise and more. And John's phenomenal for this praise

[PiglipsMaximus]

conan....conan...Conan, Conan! CONAN! CONAN!!!

[lathspell]

Just love hearing when a favorite celebrity is a great person. Of course, we all knew how genuine Conan is based on how he interacts with his employees and takes care of them.

Conan is a national treasure.

[omegalpha]

Now that Conan in the near future will start his show on HBO-Max.

It would be cool an episode of 30min or 1hour about all the celebrities who worked with Conan doing sketches as interns. Office/Conan Show.

[damo]

You never hear a bad word about Conan. Seems like such a lovely guy.

[RowdyAbilene]

The smile on Larry Kings face💔 Like a proud father.

[alpang]

From intern to being a celebrity guest. Conan is a legend bringing up so many former interns that became big actors and actresses

[NimNms]

Can't wait for Conan's HBO Max show. I hope Krasinki drops by there. So wholesome hearing Krasinski talk about Conan like this.

[mauriciomedina]

Same here for me, I grew up watching talk shows and Conon has always been my favorite to watch. He is truly a big part of who I am today.

[jodijohnson]

The tears in his eyes shows the genuineness of how appreciative he is for Conan and it’s so sweet!
