Dustin Hoffman Part I (Full Episode) | Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
Actor Dustin Hoffman would feel great about being Conan O’Brien’s friend if they ever hung out.
Dustin sits down with Conan to discuss his new memoir Look at Me, using his job as a Macy’s toy salesman as an acting exercise, going from “designated failure” to Hollywood icon, and his experience working alongside Laurence Olivier.
Part II of Conan’s interview with Dustin Hoffman drops this Wednesday, 11/11.

I love that they did a two-parter. So many of these conversations are so fun but get cut short like they're trying to fit them into a TV spot, but… why? Like, i know many of the celebrities are doing big press tours and this is just one stop along the way, so they might have literally no extra time, but I'd adore having more of the extra long interviews whenever possible.

Conan, a person with a great desire for control and cohesiveness, has the greatest interviews when they're completely out of control

This man is 89 years old, I just can’t believe it, he is my favourite Captain Hook ❤

What's up with Gourley's hair? A left-side stroke that prevents him trimming the right side of his head? A post-midlife desire to be goth-adjacent and mysterious? Did he bend backward sideways into a house fire? We may never know

Can you auction off Matt so I have someone sit on my shoulder give the narrative of my life?!

The man looks great for 89. Even with a dripping nose. Really enjoyed this one. Hoffman is one of my all time favorites and he was hilarious in this interview. So glad there's a part 2.

After seeing DH in Meet the Fockers I knew he had a wicked sense of humor and mischievous, playful persona. I have a girl-crush on him!

The 2 co-hosts add absolutely nothing to this podcast…. I recommend getting rid of them because they are very distracting with they're over the top laughing when the guest says something moderately funny or when Conan says something moderately funny you get this over the top laughter ….I wanna hear The Guest Speaking and answering questions

Conan: "You've had this streak [of success] that's not rivalled, by anyone!"
Hoffman: "I'm not sure, maybe you're right, I can't tell."

For the longest time I thought Al Pacino was Dustin in Midnight Cowboy ('69), they looked identical then.

Not a big fan… No matter how great he may be, after hearing about the incident where he slapped Meryl Streep, it was just a no for me.
