Saw both audio versions - the French is worth it, by a long shot. The vestibule scene was worth the price of admission alone, really felt like a brief clip from a Linklater movie in the midst of one of the most unique movies (for better or for worse) that you’ll see all year. Highly recommended if it even sounds passab

AYYY IT WAS THE AUDIO CLIP THEY PICKED

“The opposite of a box of donuts : A toilet full of broccoli” might be one of my favorite one-liners this show has produced, and that’s a fucking high bar. Hope they tell us who wrote that one during tonight’s podcast...

I get the logic, but not having Skyrim on here is an ABSURDLY hot take, given its comical number of ports, expansions, and mods that have pushed its popular lifetime to a full 8 years.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE COSPLAY IN YEARS

Ooh, that sounds awesome - thanks so much for the heads-up!

Ooh, gotta look that up - thanks so much for the heads-up!

THIS IS THE BEST THING I’VE SEEN IN WEEKS OMFG

Aaand that’s another Emmy in McKinnon’s pocket. Surprised (and delighted) that they went as far as to put the “microeconomics is fake” take on national broadcast - curious if any anyone out there is gonna have a revelation bc of that.

It’s spectacular. The interviews themselves are usually closer to 40 minutes total, with a 15 minute tag on the end of Conan shooting the shit with his infinitely charming staff. I hate 99.999% of podcasts, but I listen to this one religiously.

In the words of Nick Offerman from this week’s episode, “You have a fine research department.” While the gimmick certainly leads to fun moments, the Nardwuar-esque deep-dives they sometimes pull for questions (and Sean’s brilliantly straight-faced interview style) are what keep me coming back - without that charm,

In case anyone particularly enjoys this interview, Conan’s interview of Colbert on Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend is one of my all-time favorites, and a wonderful excavation of two of the best people to walk this Earth at the moment.

Biden already hit her with the “raise taxes on the middle class” horseshit argument within fucking minutes of this publication, which makes my blood BOIL on a whole number of levels.

Dunno if you listen to the podcast, but the boomer bit is apparently straight from Megan Amram, who might be one of the single greatest one-liner generators this side of the Styx.

Hobie as Spider-Punk! One of my all-time favorite costumes, tbh.

Ayup. Everyone’s gone, comments section is locked... RIP to a real one.

Signal boost: if you’ve got it to spare, drop a buck or two to @megangreenwell on Venmo to contribute to a memorial toasting fund for when the ex-DS staff hang out next.

Nope, read that again. “Including two that he’s hosting with up-and-coming comics”.

PROPER CONAN STAND-UP SPECIAL HOLY SHIT

Following Jennings’ Twitter a couple of years back is one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long while. He’s just a delightful presence in every capacity, and it’s great to see him continue to evolve in the context of Jeopardy (and beyond!)
