Fan Correction: King Tut Isn't In A Museum! | CONAN on TBS In a recent episode of CONAN, the late-night talk show hosted by Conan O'Brien, a viewer named Teddy Cho sent in a video claiming that Conan had made an error related to the legendary Egyptian mummy, King Tutankhamun. This unique segment explores how loyal fans often attempt to catch mistakes during the show's comedic bits. The focal point of Teddy's argument was a segment titled "12 Egyptian mummies that are still DTF," where a photograph of a mummy was featured under the caption, "hold on baby I'm totin' comin'." Teddy asserted that King Tut's mummy has never left its original tomb, famously maintaining its sacred residence, only making brief excursions for medical examinations. Thus, he concluded that showing it in a museum was inaccurate. However, Conan does not leave this assertion unchallenged. He firmly stated that Teddy is mistaken, emphasizing that King Tut's mummy does indeed leave its tomb periodically for exhibitions and other reasons. The segment cleverly intertwines humor with factual discourse, showcasing the light-hearted banter that fans adore on the show. Conan, known for his charismatic delivery, complemented Teddy's well-crafted video but ultimately rebutted his claim by presenting the history of King Tut's mummy's exhibitions. His sharp wit is a highlight, as he humorously invites viewers to point out any errors they spot, keeping the interaction dynamic and entertaining. This segment not only reiterates the core culture of Conan's show—a blend of comedy and audience participation—but also underlines how historical facts can become part of entertaining narratives on television. The humor around Teddy's mistake serves as a reminder that being "dead wrong" might be part of the fun, especially in the comedic realms of late-night TV. What did you think of Conan's response?
