Late-night comic Conan O’Brien is hitting the road again — this time to Armenia.

He’ll be the first American talk show host to do a show from Armenia, not that that was a particularly competitive achievement. TBS said on Monday that the episode will air on November 10.

O’Brien said he’ll be joined by his longtime assistant Sona Movsesian, who is of Armenian descent.

Said O’Brien: “I think it’s every boss’ responsibility to take their assistant back to their ancestral land. That’s why I’m going to make sure my next assistant was born in a five-star resort in Tuscany.”
