During a guest appearance on the popular YouTube series Hot Ones, veteran talk show host Conan O’Brien shares insights into the biggest mistakes guests can make on a talk show.

Known for his comedic prowess, he gets more and more spicy when discussing his career and experiences in the entertainment industry.

O’Brien highlights a common mistake that can derail an interview. “The worst thing a guest can do is tell the audience that things are not going well,” O’Brien explains from his vast experience.

He stressed the importance of maintaining a positive atmosphere during interviews, stressing that he had witnessed such missteps many times during his career.

Not only did he bravely brave the spicy chicken wings, but he also dished out some valuable talk show wisdom.

The veteran host said the worst thing a guest can do is admit publicly when an interview isn’t going well.

O’Brien said owners can work their magic to keep energy high even when things get tough.

“Audiences want to see great performances and great interviews,” he stressed, urging guests to trust the process.

He described a scene when a guest exploded and how it deflated the entire room.

But for Conan, the purpose of show business is to give the best possible performance, not dwell on the bumps in the road.
