As long as you don't walk in eating. Cheat owes
And a massive blunt, then I'm a profession. I won't say I think that day you did actually come in from the kitchen, with a snack bag of something like that to those or something, but every day where we record with that's not right, but I think that I was being professionally. Everybody was on their best behaviour. We just wanted harrison ford to think we were cool. Can I say I was not on my best behavior I I was not well, behaved. What are you? I said I said I wasn't even sure he was in the star. Worse films, oh yeah, isn't really he doesn't play or you'll hear that its ahead at the theatre that you know really pop in those middle price you didn't come after. You have robbed and your daddy, you know it's so funny. I came in as I do. often hot I come in trying to give you guys a hard time, and while I was talking to you, realized, I'm the one who's unprofessional right. I am the problem yes, and and I am saying this like it's a therapy session, and I just realized that for the first time
but now I that's a breakthrough for me, your I am living island. We haven't realised that from day one I think I don't care what you guys realise I'm having my own break through. This is about me. I'm the patient, but I've said many times that the fish rots from the head, and here the head of this affair. So I'm a riding fish at? What's the big? What's the head right, the rest, the thing rots if you you know. I o my son, of which we know how it were. How can I get you down? I'm sorry, I'm not the only clear so now, if you can really so that fish rights from the head of the fish and then would you mind if I shall write what is it? Is it a freshwater fish or is it a saw? Waterford shit, I think at the salt water fish Why is that make a difference? Do you know about our dishing? You fish sure, will you know me, I'm a guy that delays to get out on the sea.

I think you need to go, get a microscope because the if the fish you're catching are so tiny. I can't even see them. That's how he did it alright. Well, we should get. Let's just say I admit, I'm the I am the weak link in this chain. Today by man we had a really good time. So, let's get to it my guest today, of course, one of the biggest actors of all time appearing in over seventy movies over the last fifty years, including star wars, indiana jones, the fugitive, blade runner good god, it's ridiculous, my buddy! It's it's ridiculous! Yeah! That's your power, and so many more and so nice little see him
can see him in Indiana jones and the dial of destiny harrison for well. What can you fair and progress if anyone like anything you like or fuck you already my favorite, I clearly harrison. You've read the room and you understand that there's a lot of animosity towards me and that you will do quite well. If you shit on me throughout this process for confirming my instincts. You know the first thing When you came in here is say I just want my my parking validate. That seems to be her chief concern. Is that we validate your parking when me I'm going out on a limb year. This could be the big
our of your career. Is it possible that this podcast recording will out shine? any of your other were. If he gets a parking, though it will be worried. The car, a walk home. You will walk home ryanair offer on air on air. Can we record you that for the whole walk home? Oh yeah, sure? Thankfully thank you. I want to say something to you. You, you came on my show many many times in a late night show and over the years people would say who's, one of your favorite guests and I would say, harrison ford because he goddamn funny you would come The show have you seen these hearings as you are so hilariously funny, and you talk the around like a rag doll verbally on these shows and there's some of my favorite segments of all time. you're, a hilarious man and I've always of being around you, you guys euro some great stuff, for I'm a member, as I dont remember now
What do you know? Who I am at this moment? Conan this kind of cool. You said there was his. You know it's only glow when you say it is the only time its ever been cool. Do it again conan. Yes, it's like jazz words, words which ass we are picking up on each other, he's jazz your ear. Houston like carries out usually in europe as it is, and I am yeah circus calliope, I think something kinder and that is that a chimp would dance to endure. Chaz chair, ok, around. What kind of is conan is how dare you Conan is an old gaelic name that my parents gave me. They thought com in holland gaelic.
I'm from gaily. I do not. I do not speak elegance. I don't think anybody really speaks gaelic. I think it's a made up of you heard gaelic. It sounds like a bunch of someone through some chick. there's down the back stairs, it's just a lot of continents, there's not a vow alone there, and I think it's just a confused people when it's time to go to the house, so I dont speak gaelic, but I You have a very irish name. You know it fascinating made to learn. I'm part irish. You are hard irish, young, irish german, and are jewish. What's the german part, I thought you were german irish without you germany's there's, his german irish assure would german people were allowed to marry irish people sure, but you don't carry it as a by marrying somebody at a a nest? I'm sure you do, and there are irish italians. Ok cordite father is was
irish, irish right. Ok, no job. No german, now ok, refer you to this master mother right here that says, born and raised in chicago to an irish, slash, german father. If that's the quality of your research- and I imagine, is because right there, it says harrison ford and then you had to write down Han solo yeah. Remember that no! I can't I can't remember Han solo or is it wrote down, because I heard that you were in some of the star wars, films- and this was news to me because in those films and I don't exactly thank you pop you. I'm sorry I know what I mean. I remember chewbacca. I remember the bad guy with the black helmets and then there's some people how here still on television. I think it's quite obvious. Why I'm not still on television? Listen my
search might not be the best, but For my intention, as our good, they are very honourable and good. Now I've thought you have one of the cruellest names of leading man harrison ford. You cannot be that name. Yet you were ass or it was suggested. Early in your career, that you change your name whose true who the fuck one, due to change from harrison for jerry, the coffee, oh well, physician to hear that you just at an hate four is only now. Is that true? So he wanted you to change your name hate. You said harrison forward. He went no, we can do better, but here he said that the two pretentious a name for young man. He was about four years older than always called me boy boy, so what did you did you come up with an alternate name, yeah carried to go.
Well, ok! I think it was very original yadda yadda I did. I did come back the next day and not only Fourth, compared with the name, but I was was to be their early than by naming conference to get a haircut and I've been given a picture of elvis presley to take with me to the studio barber. They told you get this haircut, this hair cut and come back with a name said: ok I didn't get the erika. I said my name is kurt affair, Yeah incredible yeah, that's a great name, yeah kurt affair, yeah irish german name.
So obviously that didn't I didn't stick. You didn't think did nothing did for a while now they threw me out of it they let me go after a year and a half of a seven year contract well after which I would be making twelve hundred dollars a week really after seven years. So this is a different time in show business. That kind of fascinated me ensured servitude. It really was, but you look it. I'm thinking now the television and other? I think you came out and trust me, my my it could be off, but I'm told that you came out actually can marsh you're still in trust. Me. That's gonna happen later in this interview that you You come to hollywood in nineteen sixty four and the big way to get a job if you're lucky is every show on television is a western. A tv western, pretty much and you weren't american style, but did love america
Oh yeah man. I played a hippie, oh yeah, a real stretch. It so funny cause. I might have a brother neil, whose obsessed with tv of the sixties and early seventies, and so I told him today when I'm on the air, told him when I was on my watch. Is it your wife yet as for a rude, it's time for you to go, but you just pushed the alarm on your watch, so you could leave the sooner. If you ve been out and not look rude, that's what happened! I don't mind Looking road rail, yeah, you're right, I just did nice read this situation the terribly but I'm driving into work today and I'm taking my brother and I said, yeah I'm going in and tucked harrison. Forty said that so cool ask him about that. Gunsmoke we have. I said what no one asks- harrison ford about his episode of gunsmoke drugs. The I know him in this. These other guys take or the town and you kill a guy,
a bar and game and he knew it and then, of course I looked it up online. There's a picture of you look and real nasty on gunsmoke I did gunsmoke in the virginian, but I don't remember that yeah I did. I played the same part. twice on f b I in one season and they didn't even realize I was yeah. I just came back and we had a great time with current affair. What's your name? No, they I, I always played the seem to get these. That is if there were who criminal brothers yeah. I was the one that was as a sort of duped by, I smarter children or other right holders. Your brother is three years older than me, or two and a half years see exactly. He tricked me into two
Can you and he'll be delighted? If you listen to this and he'll say you got harrison for to talk about gunsmoke, but it is interesting to me like that whole period, because Clint eastwood get started in television, westerns, bert Reynolds, these sort of iconic accede mcqueen. All these guys had to do there. You had to do your time on a television western before you could move on to other things. Does at a fair assessment of that period? well now I m not really wrong. Why can't? I maybe that's? Why can't I have bad, you just leisure sure, yeah, in common with move on instead, its no you're wrong with you, your brother's wrong. Well, ok, I'm ok with him your names wrong ever my name's wrong? Now played the same kind of character over and over again
and nobody noticed so I I don't think it and I was not, and that was not on the clint eastwood or track right right ro a vision. I was on the here then gun tomorrow, right track right- and this is that's why you're you're make you're living primarily as a carpenter, while you're doing these other parts out get apart and I'm. lucky to get this serve quasi. Background role, yeah he's little parts and I think from any still the case yeah you're hurt and it hasn't done for you and think we can agree on that show. Business has been very good to me. Yes, it has, I think you ve been good to show business well, I do you're very eyes very lucky, I mean afraid for years, a united the same old thing. I went from colombia pictures to contract at universal, yet for two hundred and fifty dollars a week that lasting
a year and a half hour, we could get out of these things. Just being a dick, really. Is that how you would get out of it was just being kind of unpleasant. Well, in colombia is case, a jury to Caskey, write it down. He called me into his office and told me that make for the rich who is the head of the studio was in europe need forgotten to sign my contract char when he left, but he was going to suggest to my frank rich he jerry. Caskey was going suggested. drop me anyway, because I had no future. I appreciate and notice that you know their names cold you have already gotten mine but then what is it place? Conan
O'Brien. Oh my god. I want that on my that's my outgoing message for the rest of time. I'll get a lot of hang ups. I love that when you're early part of your career, and this is true of all of us and some one doesn't see it or some one wrongs you in some way or disrespects you. You never forget that name but I dont letting me finish any story. I interrupt me every time I get to lying there. wandered anyway, he said to me jerry to Caskey. He said to me that MIKE frank of hadn't head my contract so and he was going to be perhaps at you I got this far before. He was been suggested that I get that they drop me you said. They would give me two weeks pay tell MIKE frank of which came back
Because he knew that my wife was pregnant, my life at the time was pregnant, and now I needed the money I said now. That's fine goodbye and I was out there. Why not just take the two hundred fifty dollars, it was britain, fifty dollars two weeks would have been three hundred dollars and. I was stupid enough yeah your wife's, expecting a child yeah that money went a long way back. Then what were you doing think how much money you have now? If you kept exactly that money invested wisely, then working twelve hundred dollars yeah I

It is a lot of work and sometimes I feel a little overwhelmed run times. It gets anxious. Sometimes it becomes a lot but yeah I just. Bring this up because what happens sometimes, as you realize I haven't checked in myself- I don't know how I'm doing. I have no clue how I'm doing guiana bring us up, because I am a big believer in talk therapy and getting help if you're thinking of starting therapy, maybe give better help a try, yeah.

I boys, like you, I like you that. did your show many times many times here. I didn't like what twice four or five. You did my show nine times. Radie right, I mean nine timely did show nine times here. You didn't nine times and you are failing Lee very funny, every time you and one my favorite things you ever did was we
this person who are fans know very well named George Lansky, whose star wars, obsessive and built millennium falcon out of legos took him nine months to build this thing. and he brought it out and gave a long speech to you about the meaning of his money and how did it to you through up over your head here, man, the latter had topped up and it was the greatest day of my life. Then he picked up a piece and then signed and signed up for it, and it was one of the greatest greatest things. I've ever seen in my life and by the way it's a it's, a clip online that people adore they just adore it. It was. It was just a magical man. Commitment- and I thank you for that. Well, those of you at home, who don't know how these things work. Let me point out that this was the scripted bit. Yes, it was he didn't
the damn thing, somebody else: ok in the proper department. It's wild, the damn thing over a pra. You know probably took him three weeks. He probably had to take it home and ask is good to help according to gather up here and then and then you built this whole stick around it. You may I made you did you suggested that it would be funny? Yes, if I I find destroyed, yeah yeah right, I do. I will make it clear and first of all this is why you ve. Never you are right, it was fun. rule cruel, cruel, I'm cruel, but funny I'd like to point out that you'd be terrible working with a magician as the magician would come out and do a trick where he saw the lady in half and then put your back together again and just as the crime
is applauding harrison. Ford walks out and says. Excuse me I'd like to point out that this was all I shall therefore means secret herself in the first half of the box, and those rights are fake. I am picture you is a terrible, terrible magicians assistant, but yes, you just exposed my little trick I did millions and you just splain. Beware people never do imitations of me. I was just trying to get my voice into a male register. That's all I was trying to do all I was Did you try try the only way you sound like a man is to get out, and then I meet our next year nor hours when I am neither one you sound a little like jerry.
Yeah, you've gotta, get this man behind. I know now that you wake up in the middle of the night in a cold, sweat yelling, this man's name nah, you whine, you wow. No, no, no, no is however, remembered his name in fifteen years just came to me. I have that effect on people like a good therapies. For you, I'm freeing you of your past demons my wife is: can we saw excitement I knew it. I saw Conan today I am a new man diamonds are gone. She I think yes and be quite pleased with this transformation I've tried everything else since the total
knocked down some kind which I'm really enjoying I am very. cited, as is especially my friend the upcoming. Actually, I excited. I know how in this era now where people are saying, I don't even on another wanna go to the theatre anymore. The idea of going in seeing a new indiana jones movie is absolutely thrilling to me and I gonna go to the theatres to see it. If they're going see it They are all issues that I hope to see our make them. Personally. what I can imagine, I think, there's I think all of them have been spectacular. Your family is not an audience. You know likely your home. It's not it's not fair to the movie right, I mean yeah, you can see it. If you want to maybe later right, but give it a chance.
go to a movie theater near being the dark with strain These people I've done and I've I've done that and I've gone to move. One was slightly more erotic than the other way, imagine seeing you know and indiana jones film any other way. I can't, I think it would we I would I would and end the thing. Is I it's going to be an event, because I know that my son who's seventeen loves the franchise he's going to want to go. I mean just it's going to be a thing where we can all go as a family if they allow I get to go to and I want to it with an audience and want to see it with people. I've got tickets. Did you getting already? It's you pay for because maybe how much is a movie costs these days of theirs those two levels are regular theorem than they have those lie down ones where you can get food and take a nap you're.
