After 25 years at the Late Night desk, Conan realized that the only people at his holiday party are the men and women who work for him. Over the years and despite thousands of interviews, Conan has never made a real and lasting friendship with any of his celebrity guests. So, he started a podcast to do just that. Deeper, unboundedly playful, and free from FCC regulations, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend is a weekly opportunity for Conan to hang out with the people he enjoys most and perhaps find some real friendship along the way.

If Conan O’Brien ever shook my hand, I’m pretty sure I’d faint like a gentile Victorian lady.

Graduated because of you

Thank you dear Mr O’Brien for getting me through med school. Watching your show and listening to your podcast provided hours of guilt free procrastination. Graduated a few days ago and my medical degree was dedicated to you on the most important social media post of my life. You are welcome 😌
In all seriousness though, you’re an incredible man blessing us with true comedy.
