How times have changed. Bob Dole was considered really old back then running for president and paid dearly for it in the polls. In recent years we've had Bernie, Biden and Trump who were as old or older than Dole when they were running for president and they were all top contenders.
Yeah, I always thought it was low to attacks Doles age, but looking back that's really all they had to use against him as he led a pretty clean life. Dole was fine in his 70s, as he would nearly make it to 100 and stay sharp as a tack even as late as 2021.
Man. Remember the days when the 'Via Satellite' TV was big enough to kill someone if it fell on them? I tell ya, kids have it safe today not having to worry about a giant 60lb CRT screen falling on you and crushing you.
@noventar Back in the Twin Towers were still standing. The Internet was in its infancy, there were no HD plasma TVs, no smart phones, no UA-cam, etc etc.
"But, or, and" One of the best pieces of comedy I've ever heard IN MY LIFE
Robert Smigel is a genius.
25 years ago.. crazy

Triumph and the via satellite was my favorite thing on the old Conan
Also in the year 2000
I love it when he starts singing the Close Encounters song.
I miss 1996
Been looking for this clip forever! This shit was hilarious back in the day.

And Bob Dole lived all the way until the end of 2021.

these were some of the funniest bits on the old Conan show.
you mean the voices of clinton and dole? i'm pretty sure the voice of all the lips was Robert Smigel (who also voiced Triumph!)
This was my era of Conan. And the best era.
