I listened to Olyphant and Sandler this weekend while working on a DIY project at home and really liked them.

I started listening to podcasts in the last year but had only listened to sports talk. Conan's was nice to listen to now that it is the offseason and I only like football and NBA playoffs.

Thank you for recommending this. Listened to colbert on Friday and Goldblum yesterday and this morning. Colbert was fantastic and Goldblum was insane. Can't wait to listen to more.

I don't know if you are a fan of his work, but Bill Burr's is a great listen if you are. It's basically him rambling, and going off on tangents all the time. It really sounds like his standup, and occasionally he will have guests as well.

Goldblum is so weird. That whole weird bit about child sexuality and his mom vacuuming naked was weird, but it explains who he is.

Conan is by far and away my favorite person in the talk show host genre. He's legitimately brilliant.
I think his interview skills are far and away the best of the bunch.

I also enjoy that he's willing to take risks and change up his show. The remotes are awesome. Haven't had a chance to catch the new version of his show, but I think longer interviews with one person bodes well for him. He can get a lot out of that.

I would really like to hear Colbert and Conan have another hour. That was a good one.

I also did like the interview with Dax Sheppard. That would be another hour or two that would be really fun.


You should listen to Dax Shepard interview Conan on his podcast. So. Good.

He doesn't seem like a real person. So so strange and entertaining

I encourage you people to do a deep dive of Goldblum on Conan videos on youtube.

I could watch them for hours.

I like the peach pie.

I am not a fan of Conan's late night show because I have never consistently watched late night shows.
This is great!

Thanks for the heads up thread.. started listening last week and theyre great. I think the Olyphant one was my favorite, the random plugs got me every time. I can't say I followed Conan from the beginning cause I was a little young but I started watching him religiously every night around the 97/98ish, but Can't say I've kept up much with his TBS show era. But the travel show, and every bit with Jordan Schlanszky is still amazing. Conan is as brilliant as they come

Could not agree more. His years as an SNL and Simpsons writer is some of best writing in either of those shows long histories.

He's still brilliant all these years later. crazy to me that he's not on network late night anymore.

NBC talk shows tend to be safe Leno and Fallon types. Conan is a bit more out there.

My favorite part of the Kudrow ep -

Conan sitting next to Matt Leblanc at her wedding, in the summer of 95 (after S1 of Friends), and trying to tell him it was kind of a hit, and him not understanding. "Yeah, hopefully we get a season 2."

Best part of this episode- The story from Conan's early improv days where he thought his hot teacher wanted to bang him on the last night of class, but really she wanted to get him alone to suggest he go to therapy.

Listened to Bill Burr today. I find him to be completely miserable. I think he's funny, but he is miserable.

His back and forth with Jordan Schlansky is worth a look.

Wife and I were listening to the Dana Carvey episode while coming home from a trip. We both started laughing so hard that I had to pull into the right lane of I-35 so that I didn't kill us.

The most recent episode featured Bob Newhart. He's still got it at 89 years of age. It was great!

Bob Newhart, a national treasure. If I were Sona, I'd have been in hysterics on the floor, too.

Season Two has begun, and continues to deliver.

Charles Barkley is awesome on the latest one.

This is one of the few podcasts I don't skip the commercials (at least until I've heard them a few times). He can be pretty funny in them. And his interactions with his producer/sidekick before/after the interviews are often the best parts of the show. I can just listen to them for an hour if that were a podcast.

that was good... the conversation with Sona at the end was entertaining as well.

Conan's podcast is a slam dunk every time - the stuff before the guest comes on is as funny as the rest of it. When I have insomnia, which is pretty frequently, I'll put on either the Paul Rudd or Bill Hader episode and just enjoy their banter until I drift off.

Him and Bill Hader talking about how Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell would have reacted to modern texts is one of my favorite things.
