(audience cheering)
You know, Angela I have to say
I watch The Office every week
and it is nice to see you smile.
Well thank you!
I have never seen you smile really before,
your character is so dour.
Is this it must be startling
for people. Yes.
It is sort of weird, but you know, what I've noticed
is that now I'm sort of like taking on the,
like the sad face
and it's becoming my natural face,
which is a little freaky. [Conan] Right.
Like I was at a Vegas wedding.
Lots of fun, right? [Conan] Yeah.
Yeah, you did that thing. [Conan] Yeah.
And--
He was there.
Woo hoo!
And I got in the elevator,
we're having a good time, you know,
Yeah.
and this man leaned over to me and goes,
"Oh honey, it's gonna be okay.
Turn that frown upside down."
And I was like, what?
And I looked in the paneling mirror
of the elevator and I was like, this.
(audience laughing)
And I was like, I was having a great time!
Your character is changing your whole life,
Yeah. your whole personality.
A little bit.
You know, it was, I, I was reminded of this
that you interned here I did.
in 1994 I did.
when the show was just about a year old.
you were an intern here at the show.
You interned for, for Max Weinberg,
is that right? Max Weinberg!
Hey guys! Do you remember, Max?
Yes!
Max is right there.
I actually brought my journal.
This is real,
this isn't a joke. This is real,
this is not a prop.
I love that you-- By the way
look, can you see how I can't reach the floor by the way.
Can everyone see this?
Oh that's--
I have the same problem.
Yeah. You do?
Sorry, okay.
Anyway, my journal, Late Night with Conan O'Brien,
okay, I tagged some stuff, guys.
[Conan] And this is, this is real, right?
This is totally real,
like to get my cards that like,
you're going to New York City.
Okay.
Here's in here,
my friends were like so scared for me.
[Kevin] Where are you from originally?
I'm from Texas. Okay.
Yeah.
(audience cheering)
Okay, right here, this is talking about the food.
There are some serious food parks at Conan.
I get a free meal with the writers if I stay late
and I had my first bagel,
it's basically bread that looks like a donut.
(audience laughing)
So.
It's all true.
So wait, you had, you had never had a bagel before?
No, I hadn't.
I, I grew up in Indonesia.
It's crazy long story, but.
You're from Texas,
but you grew up in Indonesia. Grew up in Indonesia.
So there weren't a lot of bagels flying around.
Not a lot of bagels flying,
in fact, one time I showed up to work
and one of my friends who is Goeff Addeo,
he still works here. [Conan] Yeah
and there was like, wasn't a lot of people in the office
and I was like, where is everybody?
And he goes, "Oh, it's Yom Kippur."
And I was like, okay,
so when's Max coming in.
(audience laughing)
And he said, "It's Yom Kippur."
And I said, Addeo, Max Weinberg's Jewish?
And he was like, "Angela."
I just I had like been overseas
in Indonesia this whole time.
Indonesia's not an excuse for everything.
(audience laughing)
It is.
It's my--
There's a fire over there throw water on it!
Water puts out a fire?
I was in Indonesia.
(audience laughing)
I ran that red light?
I was in Indonesia.
Yeah.
Now I would think you living in New York City
would toughen you up quickly from you know,
you came here as a sort of
Yeah. very naive sweet person,
did New York City change you very fast?
It, it did a little bit.
I, I learned that in New York everybody has a say,
like I was on the subway and I guess my,
my umbrella with sticking out the door
and so the doors were going like this
[Conan] Right. and not shutting.
And this guy goes, "Hey, idiot,
you want to pull your umbrella in so the doors will shut?"
And I was like, well, I know he's not talking to me
'cause I'm not an idiot.
(audience laughing) And then
the doors kept going.
And so he goes, "Hey, Blondie, pull your umbrella in."
And I was like, oh,
and then this woman next to me goes,
"Hey, don't take that from him!
Hey, give her some slack buddy."
And then like, everyone started getting in on it.
[Conan] Right.
And I was like.
And four people were stabbed.
Yes.
(audience laughing)
That's a typical day here in New York.
Yeah.
You had another office job,
you worked for us and then you also worked at 1-800-DENTIST.
Is that correct?
I did.
I did Conan. Yeah.
Yes, I was an operator. That's where
I know you from.
That's where I know you from.
Yes, okay. One of my regulars.
No, I, I was an operator
and I had the 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM shift.
'Cause you know, I thought,
Hey, I can audition in the afternoon.
And, but I would start out my day and we,
I learned pretty quickly,
we had this one caller that called a lot
and he liked to talk about your lady business.
So it went-- What do you mean?
Well, yes. Oh, oh the--
I'm Southern,
so I can't really say it,
but I would say like, good morning--
We're also on television.
(audience laughing)
There's that. [Conan] Yeah.
There's that too.
(audience laughing)
[Conan] Kevin, Kevin it's gonna be fine.
It wasn't Kevin.
[Conan] Yeah. Okay.
So I would say,
(audience laughing)
I would say you know,
good morning 1-800-DENTIST,
do you need a checkup and cleaning
or do you have a specific dental problem today?
And this man would say, "I sure like your lady business.
I'd like to meet your lady business,
[Conan] Right, except he wouldn't say--
your lady business looks real good."
Yeah. Yeah.
He wouldn't say lady business.
He wouldn't say lady business
and you're supposed to transfer him to the call center,
Right. but this woman, Andrea
who sat next to me would be like, "Transfer him over here.
I'm gonna talk to 'em."
And she, she loved to talk to 'em about our lady business.
Wait, she worked there
and she would get on the phone with this perv
Yeah. and just talk about
her lady business. Talk about
all her business
and, but she got fired.
(audience laughing)
Yeah.
Wow, that's not good.
It wasn't good for her.
Now you have come a long way
I would think from North Texas.
Okay, I mean, that was a long time ago.
Even further from Indonesia.
[Conan] Yeah.
You're never coming back.
Someone's a smartie.
But, North Texas,
you're living in a part of the country
that's tornado country.
Is that right?
Oh yeah, it's tornado alley
and it's kind of wild when I call home
'cause I'm like, where am I calling?
'Cause my parents for their anniversary
they chipped in and they got a 'fraidy hole.
[Conan] What? This was,
[Kevin] Oh wow. yeah a 'fraidy hole.
Talk about lady's business.
[Conan] Yeah. Oh!
(audience laughing)
I'm never coming back here.
I'm never coming back here, Conan, Conan.
Conan, Conan. It's gonna be.
If we ignore him, he won't be here.
Okay.
(audience laughing)
But yeah, I'll call my parents and I'll be like,
what are you doing?
They'll be like, "Oh, I'm just watching the weather
wondering if we're gonna have
to go down to that 'fraidy hole."
Relax.
(audience laughing)
It's where you go when you're scared.
[Conan] Sure, yeah.
When you're afraid.
That's so weird that a tornado
would be such a common part of life.
Yeah. I mean, I'm sure it is
for huge tracks of this country,
Right. but you don't
think of it that way.
No, I had a tornado at my wedding.
That's a whole other thing.
That's frightening,
isn't it? I did, I did.
What do you mean there was a tornado,
well, what happened?
Well, there like started to go and--
I know what a tornado is.
Yeah.
(audience laughing)
What? Sorry.
And and my brother-in-law Ronnie Mullins,
he's on like the weather patrol,
[Conan] Right. you know
he goes and chases it down
and he was like making everyone like get in the house now.
And all my relatives, like and people from LA
were just like what?
But it was okay, it went to the next town.
(audience laughing)
It killed many people there.
Yeah, yeah.
But, my wedding was fine.
My wedding was great.
There's gonna be a special Christmas episode
of The Office. Right.
It's gonna air next Thursday at eight o'clock on NBC.
Watch that show, it's hilarious.
And Angela, thank you so much.
That you so much! That was very good.
Oh, thank you.
Angela, congratulations on all your success.
We'll take a break and come back,
Death Tones are here, stick around.
