The imperative

Love that name on the CBS All access show.

Please welcome our really good friend Tyg know.

I'm disturbed by the lack of any kind of furniture or decoration behind you.

Um, my bedroom chimney that we had to explain to our kids that Santa because they were worried about what Chimney Santa was gonna come down.

And, uh, we explained that Santa won't be coming down that chimney.

Sure, you know, I love our awkward pauses are even more delicious in its format.

Do you feel like you are mentally prepared mentally in good shape for this quarantine?

I think some people are better prepared than others.

Tell me, take, how are you in this situation?

You know, I obviously have not been through this ever before as we know it.

But I have, Um I don't know if you're aware, but I've had some medical issues over the years.

Yes, I've actually been, I think, hospitalized six or seven times in the past seven years.

And when I'm feeling better, I work a lot of travel around, and many times, during my healing processes and work, I thought I would love to be home with my family.

I would give anything to be home with my family, and, um, I wasthe looking at this as being quarantined.

And then about a week ago, it dawned on me that maybe I could shift things in my brain and just act like I chose this time off.

And it has helped me and I know again I've never been through this.

So maybe tomorrow there will be a, you know, murder suicide going on.

But I, uh uh, Stephanie and I give each other a couple hours a day alone, and that's very helpful.

You have to have some separation because I know you're guys are a great couple.

I appreciate you keeping track of it, though.

Every morning we'll have a little abacus next to my bed and I slide to beat over.

And it's dedicated your relationship stuff.

So you've only slid the beat over seven times now?

I gotta head It just felt like you guys were together.

But yeah, that's the thing is that a lot of couples right now are going through a tough time because they're in close quarters.

Um, that's why I do everything I can to just go into another room.

I can tell when my wife has had it with me.

Thio not wait until you're driving each other insane and take the two.

Yes, the two hours really, really, really is making such a difference.

And then we miss each other and we're not.

Essentially, it's awake, and I we've switched that around, which is we're only decided to only be together for one hour and speed separate the rest of the time.

This is the just the exact amount of Conan that anyone should have another gnome or so do your kids find you amusing?

I mean, I can entertain them about 10% of the time, and I'm 90% of the time.

I just think it's a fine mix you want, but I think you know, with certain audiences, that's what I I've gotten us well for years.

Some people don't recognize what I do is comedy, right?

Yeah, well, I have Somebody announced that before each someone says, Oh, and by the way, what you're about to experience is comedy, right?

um if anyone starts to get up to leave in a huff, we, uh, have somebody come over the loudspeaker to let people know.

Is this true that you before this whole nonsense pandemic broke out?

You performed in Huntsville, Alabama, on the same night as another event.

And you describe this as what you thought was kind of a rough point in your career?

My show was the same night as Weiner dogs on ice.
