Over the weekend on Saturday,
minding my own business,
and I get kind of a threatening video email
sent to me by a Mr. Hugh Jackman.
Conan, I know you're doing a lot of shows
traveling around the world.
Lots of them.
You've been everywhere around the world, except Australia.
It's almost like you going out of your way
not to go to Australia.
'Cause we're mates, I just wanted you
to know that it's been noticed.
First of all, I didn't know Hugh Jackman was in prison.
And I looked into it.
There's an old rule in show business.
When Hugh Jackman tells you to do something, you do it.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to Australia.
I arrived in Sydney, Australia.
And even though they speak English here,
I still had to learn the language.
I'm sitting here with Gabrielle,
a voice and dialect coach. Correct.
I would like to be able to speak like an Australian,
an authentic Australian.
I do dialects very well.
Scottish? There's a Loch Ness monster.
Yeah.
No, that was very good.
Could you do British?
Could I be British? Oh.
♪ It's the posh, posh traveling life ♪
♪ The traveling life for me ♪
♪ First cabin, captain's quarters, regal company ♪
♪ Port out, starboard home ♪
♪ Posh with a capital P-O-S-H, posh ♪
Oh, you're very good.
The Australian accent all happens back here.
You've got to hook it into your jaw cavity.
Oh. So rather than forward here,
stick it back there. Yeah.
But as an Australian-- How 'bout that?
Yeah.
I got that part that. Yeah, that's good and nasal.
Yeah.
And if you're saying yes to something,
it's also really good to go yeah, nah, nah.
Yeah, nah. Yeah.
That's nice. Offer me some fruit.
Would you like some fruit? Yeah, nah.
No?
All right. Nah.
Yeah, I'll just put it down.
But I did want the fruit.
