Hey, Conan O'Brien here.

Usually in this slot, we air a fan interaction episode, but we're not going to do that.

We've had a lot of requests out there from people to talk about my recent experience hosting the Oscars.

It has only been about a week by the time this air, a week or so, a week and a half, since I hosted the Oscars. It is only been about a week by the time this airs,

a week or so, a week and a half,

since I hosted the Oscars.

We're taping this a bit earlier several days

after the show aired.

So it's still fresh in our minds.

And I am joined to go over this experience

with my head writer of many, many, many years.

Some say too many years.

Too many.

Mike Sweeney.

Mike Sweeney has been with me

almost since the very beginning

of my late night show.

He waited a little bit

to see if it would survive or not.

And then when he saw that, you know,

it was probably going to make it, he

came aboard. So he is a coward. But Mike Sweeney... You should have led with the coward part.
