Conan O'Brien's 2011 commencement address at Dartmouth College came a year after he lost The Tonight Show, and he turns that public failure into the speech's subject. After twenty minutes of excellent jokes he argues that disappointment can free you to discover who you really are. It is the best example on this list of a comedian earning a sincere ending through laughter.
