I know that you grew up in Canada
and I know a bit about you.
What I didn't know is you're very well educated.
You speak, is this true? You're trilingual.
You speak English, obviously.
You speak French and you speak German.
Yeah, my parents were crazy.
They thought it was a good idea if my sisters
and I went to school all day with all
of our classes in French
and then went to German school after school.
So you would speak French all day?
Yeah.
And then learn German afterwards.
Yeah, my mom's family is German,
and so we would speak German with my grandmother
and she lived like three doors away, actually.
So we'd always go over there for hot chocolate soup
with whipping cream for breakfast.
What is hot chocolate, is hot chocolate soup
just hot chocolate?
Or is it like a thin soup of chocolate?
It's like (speaking German)
(audience laughing) Oh my God.
Which is like, I mean, it's like a nice chocolate soup,
like why does it sound like that?
Yeah, why does everything in German sound so angry?
It's true, angry, mean and scary.
(audience laughing) Say hot chocolate.
It sounds too sweet,
would you like some hot chocolate soup?
But, say it again.
(speaking in German) (Conan screaming)
(audience laughing)
(audience cheering)
True story. True story.
And is that with whipping cream?
Or is with whip cream. (speaking gibberish)
(speaking German)
I surrender, yeah.
It's not a romance language.
No.
Like if I want to give you a compliment,
What would you, how would you?
I would say like,
(speaking German)
What was that?
I really like the beautiful, sexy wave
in your big red hair.
Well I like that better.
But I like this.
This was nice, that helped me a little bit.
I thought maybe that's about my hair or a roller coaster.
(speaking faux German)
Right? So if we were in German
whispering sweet nothings to each other, it'd be both of us.
(German gibberish)
