'''Conan O'Brien''' is an American television host, comedian, writer, producer and performer. Currently, he hosts the late-night talk show ''Conan'' (2010 - ) on TBS, and previously hosted ''Late Night with Conan O'Brien'' (1993 - 2009) and ''The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien'' (2009 - 2010).

==Jack White==
* 1999: Shortly after shooting a remote segment for ''Late Night'' with Ted Nugent, Conan and his crew decided to drop by a Detroit bowling alley-restaurant-rock venue (which sounds a hell of a lot like [[The Magic Stick]]). "I have this vague memory of these really cool kids coming over and hanging out with us," he says. "I knew nothing about them or what they did."
* 2002: O'Brien eventually learned he had met [[Jack]] and [[Meg]] White that day when he popped into a ''Saturday Night Live'' rehearsal to check out the White Stripes as a fan. He reconnected with the duo and kicked off a relationship that would become one of the most fruitful in late-night TV.
