Louis C.K.: Joe Pesci Thinks I Suck | CONAN on TBS

[cleoz]

Joe is not a nice guy, he's a good fella.

[argeshagan]

Joe Pesci: Hey louie, you suck.
Louis CK: you're nice guy, joe.

[DeesonJame]

'He told me a lot of really harsh things about.. myself.'

[alwilkins]

"First of all, I'm not doin your show."😂😂

[NickMK]

Joe Pesci: "What do you mean Im nice? Nice how?"

[Oakeshott-koig]

"I went down to his house, and met him, and he told me a lot of really harsh things about myself"--Joe Pesci's a gangster therapist.

[midablece]

Joe pesci is a busy man after all, answering prayers with a baseball bat.

[whateverman]

"You're not so much a comedian as you think you are, pal." This is the greatest story ever told

[metalstorm]

“You’re not as much of a comedian as you think you are, pal!” Damn, Pesci is a savage

[lalalalalalalalalawl]

The way Louis handled this, totally unperturbed by Pesci and calling him a "nice guy" but without any arrogance or visible sarcasm is great.

[dohnjoe]

We need this talented man back. I still laugh at his old specials.

[paulcallister]

Louis ck is funny? Funny how ? Does he amuse me ? does he make me laugh?

[sssssssev]

I love how Louis is so empowered by that whole experience.

[snow_monkey]

A blessing in disguise. Alan Alda was INCREDIBLE.

[rdAndThird]

Joe didn't think Louie was a funny guy, he didn't AMUSE him

[DrDeathpwnsu]

In Pesci's Defense, we all clearly remember and are familiar with his famous comedy album, _"Vincent Languardia Gambini Sings Just For You"_ and how that went quadruple platinum and took the comedy world by storm with its unprecedented success. Oh wait.

[Strasiloo]

It's crazy how much better this interview was than the one on The Tonight Show

[Dante]

So George Carlin was Louis' inspiration and role model in stand-up and he even had the same work ethic as George. George was really good friends with Joe Pesci before he died, (he even said in one of his stand ups that he prays to Joe Pesci instead of God), and probably thats another reason why Louie wanted him in the show. (and probably why Joe thought Louie was crap lol)

[paradoxacres]

Eh, comedy's very *subjective* after all.

Louis CK is pretty "modern" in terms of comedy. I honestly don't blame an "old-timer" like Pesci for not liking his comedy.

[lucidstargirl]

YESSSS MORE LCK ON :D Now just get Bill Burr on again and I will love you forever.
