Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend: Stephen Colbert

March 4, 2019 2:20 PM

Comedian, writer, and television host Stephen Colbert feels cool about being Conan O'Brien's friend. Stephen and Conan sit down this week to chat about bonding like brothers, growing a sustainable farm, silliness as a religion, the healing power of connecting with an audience, and hiding from their producers. Plus, Conan gives a history lesson as he and his staff pick a new subject for another drawing contest.

Episode link. This felt really special. Could have happily listened for hours.

I agree. This was a particularly good episode.

I really like this podcast. Still. Months after the last post on fanfare about it. Most recent episode is Lin-Manuel Miranda. Bob Newhart was recently, and is absolutely delightful from beginning to ed.

Bob Newhart destroyed Conan while remaining incredibly wholesome. Sona could not stop laughing throughout the episode and saying things like "this is the greatest day of my life"

The Jeff Goldblum episode was also very...special.
