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.

Baltimore Loves Conan

Please never retire!!

Conan I love you!

This show brings me so much joy. Anytime I’m feeling down, I know I can put on CONAF and within minutes I’m snorting (from laughter, not drugs). Thank you Conan for being one of few comedians who never relies on being cruel (aside from clearly playful cruelty to those you love) and can truly connect with anyone. I’ve never heard Conan be negative or pessimistic, despite everything going on in the world. I know it’s hard to imagine this given how absurd he is but he’s truly one of the people I look up to most, and I’ve yet to be disappointed. Please keep making content, I’d listen to you narrating paint drying!
