UPDATED TWICE WEEKLY

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.

Introducing Conan’s new podcast

Conan O’Brien really needs a friend. But does he need a podcast? Turns out he does. If only to find that friend. Conan's bringing his favorite celebrity guests by the studio for some friendly conversations. In the meantime, he is joined by his dependable assistant Sona Movsesian, in an attempt to figure out why a venerable TV legend like himself might want to start a podcast in the first place. Is it really for the friendship, or just the fortune and glory? Or is it maybe to show everyone else just how wrong they’ve been doing it up to now? Weekly episodes start this fall. Subscribe now so you don't miss the biggest podcast event of the year!

I was looking for a Tilda Swinton podcast and came across this. It’s gotten me through some tough times. I love the chemistry between the three of you.
Let the man talk about Ireland damnit

Is Conan’s fixation on the potato outdated? Yes Should he be aware that the national food of Ireland is now the chicken fillet roll? Also yes Would anyone currently residing in Ireland disown him immediately if they saw him on his hands and knees kissing the ground next to the Welcome to County Wexford sign? Like obviously yes, we know people around here and he can’t be making a holy show of us like that. But also, Conan’s Irish heritage is only 90% of who he is. You’re all forgetting about the remaining 10%: 6% pompadour 4% factor 50+++ spf reapplied on the hour every hour Trace elements of advice Johnny Carson gave him that one time when no one was around and could have possibly seen it happen And goddamn it if that doesn’t all add up to one joyous host that, yes, talks about being Irish a lot but for Christ sake the man has red hair visible from space and audibly sizzles if he stands next to a window too long. What’s he SUPPOSED to talk about?! The guests? With their veneers and empty spaces where they used to have buccal fat? What could they possibly offer to the conversation?! No no no, when a format works, it works!! So in conclusion: Yes if Conan ever wants to head back to the homeland he can stop over in Bray and I’ll happily buy him a chicken fillet roll and an oat latte (BECAUSE THATS HOW WE DO IT NOW). But the only real takeaway is that this is the most joyous show out there, where I have never once turned on an episode and said “nah this one’s a skip”. Real talk, I now listen to the Bill Hader episode instead of early 00s emo music when I’m low. I guess this is what it means to grow up…
BEST chicken ever!
