During the show, Conan brings up their trip to Argentina, where they shared a delicious steak meal. However, Conan recalls how annoyed he was with Jordan during that meal, making it one of the angriest moments he’s had on camera. Jordan, on the other hand, showcases his knowledge of Argentine culture, particularly tango, the intense and passionate dance that flows through the blood of the Argentinian people.
Their banter continues as they reminisce about their trip to Japan, where tension arose when Jordan made a mistake about the filming location of Karate Kid 2. Conan reveals how he tricked Jordan into believing that the movie was shot in Okinawa, Japan, when it was actually filmed in Hawaii. Jordan understandably gets frustrated, but Conan finds humor in his reaction.
Another memorable experience was their trip to Italy. Conan wanted to provide Jordan with a special, off-the-tourist-path experience in Florence. However, the duration of the trip turned out to be longer than expected, and Jordan, being hungry and expecting a shorter ride, expressed his displeasure. Despite the initial frustration, they ended up having a magical dinner in the town of F, just outside Florence.
Conan humorously teases Jordan about his fascination with different cultures and expresses his desire to plan future trips together. He mentions an upcoming trip to Paris and the French countryside, where they will indulge in local wines and stay in medieval castles. From there, they would drive through the Swiss Alps, experiencing the breathtaking scenery, and end up in Northern Italy, savoring regional dishes like risotto and polenta.
Throughout the conversation, Jordan tries to convince Conan that they have a romantic relationship. However, Conan dismisses this idea while playfully engaging in the banter. Jordan’s persistence in associating their friendship with romance adds a comedic twist to their dynamic.
As the episode concludes, Conan plays a piano version of “The Lonely Man Theme,” the iconic music from The Incredible Hulk TV series. This song evokes a sense of loneliness and melancholy, fitting for the hypothetical scenario of wandering alone in Europe without a companion.
The latest episode of Conan O’Brien‘s talk show showcased the unique and humorous relationship between Conan and Jordan Schlansky. Their banter and playful arguments continue to entertain viewers, keeping them eagerly awaiting their next adventure together.
