Conan: We’ll Never Know, Pence Could Be Our Next President

EXCERPT:

CONAN: “Let me explain to the home viewer. I’m kind of lying right now. It’s actually Tuesday."
RICHTER: "What? What?!"
CONAN: "Yes, Andy! People are gasping. Come on, I explained this before the taping.” 
RICHTER: “No one listens.”
CONAN: “No. You see, because I’m leaving for Mexico to tape a show there, which we’re very proud of, we’re going to Mexico City to tape a show, I have to leave 24 hours earlier than usual. So we’re taping this show on Tuesday but you’re seeing it on Wednesday. Okay? Now, here’s the interesting thing. We’ve done this a couple of times before and not that much happens in the news so can you tell jokes about what happened and it will probably still work. The world we’re living in today, I have no idea what’s going to happen in the next 24 hours and make a joke about it, right?” 
RICHTER: “There’s no way to know.” 
CONAN: “My best guess is to start the monologue by saying, ‘Congratulations, President Pence.' That’s really — that’s about it! I’ve got other jokes but those aren’t going to work. You don’t even know what’s going to happen."
