    Has Conan o'brien ever appeared on late, late show or any other Irish tv show. Ive been searching online and cant find any record of him on irish tv and seeing he has irish roots and has done many irish sketches on his shows i thought its possible he might. Anyone know? Thanks

    I'm pretty sure he was. I seem to remember watching him a few years back on late nights (can't remember the channel), and this was just after I had returned from a J1 in the states where I had seen quite a bit of him. Can't really give you much info unfortunately though!

    He was interviewed by David McWilliams on "Ireland's Generation Game".

    Not sure if there's a video of it on the RTE site somewhere.

    Hope this helps.

    The weekday shows are edited versions of the full shows which are shown on the weekends, usually with the sketch cut out and shorter monalogues and interviews

    COB while in a irish house: Its customary for irish people to have a picture of one of the Kennedys in their homes
