TRANSCRIPT:
Conan O’Brien: Thank you. Thank you. And please stop doing that. What is your name, sir? Stephen.
Stephen, thank you for playing music usually reserved for a fireman’s funeral. That’s creating a really nice atmosphere for me right now.
How are you all doing, everybody? How are you, Google?
[Cheers and applause]
Vic Gundotra: Conan?
Conan O’Brien: Who the hell are you?
Welcome to Google.
Vic Gundotra: Welcome to Google. It’s absolutely great to have you here.
Conan O’Brien: It’s very nice that you could be here. It’s exciting.
Vic Gundotra: Thank you, thank you.
Conan O’Brien: People are so thrilled to see you.
Vic Gundotra: I noticed that.
Conan O’Brien: What a rare honor for them to see you in the flesh.
Vic Gundotra: Yes, on behalf of all the Googlers, let me –
Conan O’Brien: You call yourselves Googlers.
Vic Gundotra: We do. Aren’t we Googlers? Googlers, yeah.
Conan O’Brien: Let’s start there. We can do better than “Googler,” okay? Something cooler, especially for the guys when they’re walking into a bar, you hear what I’m saying. I’m a Goo-gler. You don’t want to say that to a — like, I’m a “G” man or something. You’ve got to get something else going, because “Goo-gler”!
Vic Gundotra: Welcome.
Conan O’Brien: We’re pretty much done here, aren’t we?
Vic Gundotra: We are done.
Conan O’Brien: You seem stunned. And I am happy.
Vic Gundotra: Yes.
Conan O’Brien: But you invited me, and that’s your problem.
Vic Gundotra: I did.
So you were at Twitter last week.
Conan O’Brien: No. It was a couple of weeks ago. Look it up online. Ha-ha.
Vic Gundotra: This is harder than it looks.
Conan O’Brien: Yes. I love this format. What is this format we’re doing here? This is nice.
Vic Gundotra: It’s kind of like a slow dance. Exactly. Like a slow dance.
Conan O’Brien: Circling me.
Vic Gundotra: It’s like a waltz. Let’s see —
Conan O’Brien: I’m a Goo-gler.
Vic Gundotra: “G” man.
Conan O’Brien: “G” man, yes. So what were you asking me? You asked me about Twitter. Yes, I went by Twitter. Does that bother you guys? Are you guys mad at Twitter or something? I don’t know what the rivalries are here. You have to explain it to me.
