Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend Team Coco

Is Conan’s fixation on the potato outdated?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…

I eaten here numerous times and never been disappointed!

Brilliant podcast. Such easy listening. Everyone should check it out. I’m from Ireland and finding the reviews here very gas 😂 Why are people claiming to be Irish and offended by Conan? One even calls him racist! It’s not possible to think that, surely! If you’re offended by Conan’s accents or the way he mildly pokes fun at Ireland then you’re clearly not Irish. Ignore them all. Keep up the good work. P.S. I hope this message reaches you. We have no WIFI in the area so my neighbour’s daughter is outside with an antena. I’m staring out at her now. She’s on high ground. She seems cold.
