This post comes just a little late. But I didn't think of it until recently. To me, the song "II BS" by Charles Mingus IS the summer. It's the musical form of the experience of a sun that's just too bright and a day that's just too hot and the only available options are a glass of lemonade and a car ride with the windows down.

Conan and Andy vs. Dream Team 2032
Conan and Andy decide to settle one of the classic sports debates - who's the better basketball team, Team Coco or the Dream Team of 2032?
"Do we let the wolf in?"
"No, don't let him in."
"Don't let him in."
"Do we let the wolf in?"
"No, don't let him in."
"Don't let him in."

Conan: Glengarry Glen Ross Auditions
Just a few days after I post a movie review of "Glengarry Glen Ross", Conan's made a new video which features Shaq auditioning for exactly that movie. Coincidence? Or could it be that I'm affecting the show?
You decide.
Oh yeah, Shaq, you're up a few and you think you're wearing the big boy pants? If you don't like my performance I walk across the street and talk to Jerry Graff... PERIOD. END OF DISCUSSION. You know what, no, screw that. I'm going... TO LEMKIN... you fairy.

The 100 Meters Track
As the Olympics are going on and as the Track and Field events have just started I was reminded of this gem from several years ago. "The Games" was an Australian mockumentary series about the fictional inner workings of the government as it prepares for the 2000 Sydney Games.
From this series, "The 100 Meters Track" is the most youtubable moment and it's a classic. Skip to 4:49.
Part 2.
I had this recorded on VHS for years and I'd of uploaded it to youtube myself if someone hadn't beaten me to it. By the way, if this looks familiar somehow, it's probably because you've already seen this.

Late Night - Fallon and Cosby Do A Routine
I get the feeling that Bill Cosby is Jimmy's favorite guest. He's old, he's slower, he rambles, some things he says don't make sense, he's unpredictable and he makes Jimmy sweat... a lot. But you get the feeling that Fallon loves every second of it because he knows he's in the presence of a comedy legend. Perhaps the comedy legend.
Perhaps for that reason, the interview is four parts long. I reccomend the whole thing but if, if you only watch one segment watch the fourth one where Bill and Jimmy work out a comedy routine that never quite happens.
Part 1.

Part 3.
