ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: Conan O'Brien on 60 Minutes in 2010
กำลังสร้างบทเรียน...

60 Minutes Rewind Very few things in this country galvanize public opinion,
2
like someone trying to mess around with people's preferences in the bedroom.
3
I'm talking, of course, about what they watch on late night television.
4
And NBC found that out a few months ago when Conan O'Brien, the newly installed host of The Tonight Show,
5
quit after the network announced it was going to push The Tonight Show into tomorrow
6
and to give its traditional time slot back to O'Brien's predecessor, Jay Leno.
7
It triggered a lot of bad publicity for NBC, an outpouring of public support for Conan, and some of the best late-night jokes in a decade.
8
Conan walked away with a $32 million settlement and a new cable show, and NBC did its best to push him into oblivion,
9
legally prohibiting him from saying anything false or disparaging about the network network
10
and from giving interviews or appearing on television until now.
11
If you're wondering what happened to Conan O'Brien and what he thinks about all of this, you're about to find out.
12
So what's with the beard?
13
The first day that I woke up and was no longer the host of The Tonight Show, I remember the first thought I had is, I am not shaving.
14
And that was my small victory.
15
You know, okay, so I lost the Tonight Show, but I'll show them I'll stop shaving.
16
This has been quite a year.
17
Yeah.
18
That's it.
19
We're done.
20
This was a lot of fun.
21
This year is still incomprehensible to me.
22
The amount of stuff that's happened in my life in the last year is,
23
it's going to take me a long time to process it.
24
After leaving The Tonight Show in January
25
and hanging out at his home trying to figure out what he was going to do with the rest of his life, he decided the best therapy would be to get out of the house and back to work.
26
He assembled a lot of his old staff, opened a Twitter account, That's the tweet!
27
and began planning a nationwide comedy tour, something that he had never done before and one of the few things he was allowed to do contractually.
28
See how things play out.
29
We met up with him in Seattle.
30
You must have been miserable the last couple of months.
31
I went through some stuff and got very depressed at times.
32
You know, it was like a marriage breaking up suddenly, violently, quickly, and I was just trying to figure out what happened.
33
When we started putting this tour together, it got...
34
I started to feel better almost immediately.
35
And then this, there's no better antidote to what I've just been through than to do this every night.
36
Ladies and gentlemen...
37
Give me a little bit.
38
Okay.
39
Why don't you go?
40
You go!
41
I can't do it!
42
All right!
43
You know, doing this tour, though, this is a huge milestone for me.
44
This is the first time anybody has ever paid to see me.
45
Can you believe that?
46
Yeah.
47
Oh, they've paid to make me go away.
48
The legally prohibited from being funny on television tour has boosted his confidence,
49
kept him relevant, and provided an outlet for him to explore his anger, disappointment, and anxiety with mostly self-deprecating humor.
50
My own show again.
51
I just can't wait to have my own show again.
52
I'd even take a prime time show that's on at 10.
53
Anything to have my own show again.
54
After 40 performances in 32 cities in the U.S and Canada, the tour will wind up next month at Radio City Music Hall in New York,
55
right next door to NBC's corporate headquarters, where this whole late-night fiasco was cooked up.
56
I just want to say I couldn't be happier.
57
You were the only choice.
58
You were the perfect choice.
59
You have been an absolute gentleman in private and in the press.
60
I agree.
61
Conan rocks.
62
Good luck next week, my friend.
63
Jay, thank you for everything.
64
Less than one year after Jay Leno handed The Tonight Show off to Conan O'Brien,
65
NBC decided to cancel Leno's disastrous primetime show and move him back into his old time period at 11.35 Eastern.
66
Conan's Tonight Show, which was losing badly in the ratings to David Letterman, was to be bumped back to 12.05 the next morning.
67
Was it in the back of your mind that, look, if I don't do that well, they could just pop Leno back in?
68
I'm a paranoid person.
69
And I think I'm the kind of person that can come up with lots of negative scenarios.
70
But I remember thinking that seemed like a, that was a stretch, even for me.
71
What followed were some unpleasant discussions with NBC's West Coast brass.
72
It just felt like the tone went very quickly from take your time we understand this is a tough decision to,
73
you know, let's go.
74
You know, and that probably helped me a little bit feel like, you know what, this environment doesn't feel right.
75
And I've been with these people a long time and I don't like, I really don't like the way this is going.
76
And when it started to get toxic and I started to feel that I'm not sure these,
77
people even really want me here.
78
Let's just, let's just, I can't do it.
79
Do you think they wanted you to leave?
80
Uh, yeah, that's crossed my mind.
81
I don't know how thought out this whole thing was, but if they wanted me to leave, it worked.
82
This was just really, really hard for him.
83
It was watching someone's heart get broken.
84
Liza O'Brien, Conan's wife, was one of his main confidants and closest advisors during the debacle.
85
Did you approve of everything that he did?
86
A hundred percent, yeah.
87
You thought he should have left?
88
Absolutely.
89
What do you think of the way he was treated by NBC?
90
From my perspective, it felt like they never really gave him the job.
91
That they said, we're going to give you this job in five years.
92
And they kept him with the company.
93
And they, you know, he said, I won't go anywhere else and I'll keep working for you and I'm in it for the long haul.
94
And it felt like they lost their nerve to really make a change.
95
And that was too bad.
96
It was a shame.
97
Because it would have been great to see what he could have done
98
if he had had their full support and had some more time.
99
You've got this non-disparagement agreement.
100
Do you have a copy?
101
Because I haven't read it in a while.
102
I have a copy somewhere in my bag.
103
I keep one in my wallet.
104
You do?
105
Any time people come up to me, Hey, so what's the deal with Jay Leno?
106
Hold on a second.
107
He's a fine and good man.
108
There we go, put that away.
109
Can I assume that this interview would take a different tenor if that agreement did not exist?
110
No, I don't think it would.
111
The biggest thing people come up and say to me in gas stations and restaurants, I have so many people say this to me.
112
Hey, partner, you got screwed.
113
I don't, and I always tell them, no, I didn't.
114
I didn't get screwed.
115
I'm fine, it just, it didn't work out.
116
Well you did get screwed.
117
You think I got screwed.
118
Well I think most people think you got screwed.
119
I mean Jay Leno thinks you got screwed.
120
Jay Leno thinks he got screwed.
121
How did he get screwed?
122
Explain that part to me.
123
I'm sorry.
124
Jay's got The tonight show.
125
I have a beard inflatable bat and I'm touring city to city who can say who won and who lost.
126
I'm laughing because crying would be sad.
127
The story will continue after this.
128
Has Jay reached out to you?
129
No. No calls?
130
No, I do not think I'll be hearing from him.
131
We should get him in here.
132
We should.
133
Is he going to be a surprise walk-on?
134
No, no, no. OK.
135
But he'd call if you know his number.
136
I'm sure he'd come over.
137
He may have caller ID.
138
He won't pick up.
139
I think Leno would say, look, I was riding high.
140
I was number one, and I was still number one
141
when I left and Conan made this deal with NBC and NBC said, okay, Jay, we're gonna take you off the air in five years,
142
regardless of whether you're a number one or number two or what?
143
I think he felt like he was forced out by NBC at a time
144
when he was a strong number one and was pushed out the door.
145
Mm-hmm.
146
Mm-hmm.
147
That's his argument.
148
It's hard for me to get inside his head and argue his side of this whole thing.
149
Um, I, I, here's what I can say.
150
I'm happy with my decision.
151
I sleep well at night.
152
And I, you know, hope he's happy with his decision.
153
Do you think that Jay lobbied for this?
154
I don't know, but what I know is what happened,
155
happened, which is that he went and took that show back.
156
Do you believe he acted honorably during all of this?
157
I don't think I can answer that.
158
I don't think.
159
I can just tell you maybe how I would have handled it.
160
And I would do it differently.
161
You wouldn't have come back on The Tonight Show.
162
If I had surrendered The Tonight Show and handed it over to somebody publicly and wished them well, um, and then, uh, I don't,
163
would not have come back six months later.
164
But that's me, you know?
165
Um, everyone's got their own, you know, way of doing things.
166
What would you have done?
167
Uh, done something else, go someplace else.
168
I mean, that's just me.
169
He is equally disappointed with NBC, the company where he worked most of his adult life, and with NBC Universal Chief Jeff Zucker,
170
who he has known since they were classmates at Harvard.
171
Has Zucker called you?
172
No. You haven't talked to Zucker since this offer was made to you?
173
That's right.
174
You know, at some point, I'm sure I'm going to bump into these people.
175
And, you know, I'm not sure we're going to have our arms around each other
176
and drinking beer and singing old Irish fight songs.
177
because I don't think they know any.
178
But, you know, I wish, this is going to sound crazy,
179
I do wish these people well.
180
Jeff Zucker was quoted as saying, at the end of the day, the viewers voted and they didn't like Conan as the host of The Tonight Show.
181
Can I take back what I just said?
182
Do you take issue with that?
183
In my opinion, I don't think that's fair or accurate, but he's entitled to his opinion.
184
I think for anyone to say that the results were in after six months,
185
that doesn't ring true to me.
186
They said that for the first time in history, that Tonight Show was losing money.
187
I don't see how that's possible.
188
I honestly don't see how that's possible.
189
It's really not possible.
190
It isn't possible.
191
Did you expect NBC to give you more of a chance?
192
Absolutely.
193
Yes.
194
Do you feel like it was a failure?
195
My Tonight Show?
196
No. Absolutely not.
197
Conan does agree with NBC's comments that it was a business decision motivated by money,
198
and he acknowledges that Leno had the more expensive contract and would have been even harder to let go.
199
Some people have reported that NBC would have had to pay him $150 million.
200
Yeah.
201
So if you look at it that way and you're working at, let's say, I don't know,
202
you're working for General Electric and you tell them you know there's this to make
203
that guy go away or there's this that's
204
that decision is probably pretty clear
205
and I think in my gut I honestly believe everybody knows
206
that's what happened they did what they had to do
207
and okay I get it and the only thing I take exception to is subsequently people saying,
208
well, you know, Conan was losing money and, you know, actually he was murdering cats.
209
What?
210
You know, whatever.
211
Last month, Conan finally pulled the trigger on his future, raising some eyebrows by signing on to do an 11 o'clock show for the cable channel,
212
PBS, and not with a broadcast network.
213
Oh, I do not look down my nose at cable, and I think anyone who does isn't paying attention to television these days because it is,
214
this world is changing very quickly.
215
You got $30 million that you didn't have before.
216
You got a very lucrative new gig on TBS which has an audience that...
217
Very young audience.
218
Custom made for you.
219
It wasn't all bad.
220
That's the point I keep making.
221
It's crucial to me that anyone seeing this take, they take anything away from this.
222
It's, I'm fine, I'm doing great,
223
I hope people still find me comedically absurd and ridiculous, and I don't regret anything.
224
I do believe, and this might be my Catholic upbringing,
225
or Irish magical thinking, but I think things happen for a reason.
226
I really do.
227
I thought the Lutherans believed that.
228
Oh my god, it is Lutherans.
229
Okay, I believe that if I experience any joy in life, I'll go to hell.
230
That's what I believe.
231
But you get my point.
232
I'm a trickled Irish ass
233
I hung around the house Eating frosting from a jar I got really into Gossip Girl
234
And sleeping in my car Yes I'll survive Yes I'll survive
235
Yeah they kinda tried to kill me
236
But I made it out alive I've got all my life to live I've got
237
so many shows to give I'll survive I will survive I will survive I will try
