O’Brien said he was in a meeting about his upcoming gig as the host of the Oscars when he got a call from his wife Liza about seeing "some smoke"

Conan O’Brien is one of the lucky few whose Pacific Palisades home is still standing after the LA wildfires, but he says he knows many who’ve been affected by the devastation, including his podcast co-host Sona Movsesian.

Conan O’Brien revealed just how close he got to losing his house during the first episode of his popular podcast since the ongoing L.A. wildfires broke out earlier this month. The former late-night host did have to flee his home in the Pacific Palisades—but it was the fire across the city in Altadena that ended engulfing his longtime assistant and podcast co-host Sona Movsesian’s house.

O'Brien, who moves to L.A. from Massachusetts, opened up about what he and his wife went through during the course of the Los Angeles wildfires, which are still ongoing. He said that they were evacuated and displaced from their home, staying at a hotel in the meantime.

Sona Movsesian, Conan O'Brien's assistant and a longtime comic character in her own right, posted that the Los Angeles fires claimed her home in Altadena.
