Hello, this is Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend, Deep Dive, with Dana Carvey. Hey, Dana. Glad to be here, Conan. It's a six-part mini-series where I, Conan O'Brien, along with occasional help from my assistant Sonam Obsession, and my producer, Matt Gorley, go deep into the weeds with one of my favorite comedians and friends, Dana Carvey. Enjoy. Hey, Conan O'Brien here, and I am God.

I'm in heaven. I'm here with Dana Carvey again. I'm told this is our last mini-episode together, Dana, but who knows, there could be more fun for us on the way. We're demonetizing. I've just been having so much fun. There's a lot to talk about. It is fun.

You know what's nice about this, these bite-sized ones, is because, in a sense, we could do other ones where we philosophize, but it's sort of a combo of actually performing like we would if we were really goofy in the back of a car on the way to a gig. Yes. And you just make each other laugh with me. Well, one of the things that has been so nice about this podcast and has been particularly nice with you is just capturing what it's like to hang out with Dana Carvey, and you're not one of those people that's brooding and sulking, and then you go off in a room and

you come up with great stuff and you perform it for 5,000 people, you're a joy to be with when we grab sushi at the same restaurant that you always make me eat sushi at. We do, yes. We go to the same one the last five times. You always say, meet me at that sushi restaurant, so I meet you there, and then you tell me, you always show me, you always show me where David Spade's table is, and you go, yes, Spade over eats over there, and I'm like, why do you guys eat at this one sushi restaurant, and why does Spade go over to one table and just sit there?

Well, for me, I'm kind of a recluse. I'm really happy at home with my wife watching something cool on TV. I got cool snacks, cool TV, I got my guitar. What's a cool snack? I got cool snacks. What is a cool snack? Just cool snacks. Like a pomegranate roll-up, what is a cool snack?

Mango sorbet, maybe a couple adult beverages. I like a few beers. Sure you do. Delicious. My friends, golden friends, the other day I asked myself for permission whether I could have another beer, and to my delight in surprise, myself said yes. Sometimes you get lucky. So you enabled yourself.

But this restaurant, which should we not say the name of it? You can say the name of it. It's called, well, then everyone's going to go. Okay, it's a really cool place. Why can't they go? They can go. It's called Koibe, but it's right. I can walk to it from my house.

What is it on La Siena again? Yeah, La Siena. It's very dark, there's no paparazzi there for my celebrity friends. I'm getting mobbed, but it's dark, it has really good food, it's very mellow. We used to go early. It's empty. It's very nice. We've had a couple of our show Christmas parties there.

I just find it, we always sit in the back and howl like monkeys and improvise and act like fools. But you always do point out to me like, yeah, that's where Spade sits over there, and I'm like, what? I just love that David Spade eats at one restaurant. And Dennis Miller met Spade and I there a while back, and he's eating the food, and he goes, Christ, thanks, this is the best food I've ever had. I'm keeping this a secret, huh?

That's the guy I gotta do to get a tiger roll. Is he super conservative with you, Dennis Miller? No. Because he's got, his humor became more conservative. I don't know if he's... You know, Nancy Pelosi, that shit crazy, crazy. I don't know. I mean, he says in the end of the day, Dennis says, I just want to keep half my money and

kill the bad guys, okay? What does that mean? Well, a strong defense and topped out at a 50% tax. I want to keep half my money. Isn't everybody a little bit conservative and a little bit liberal? I mean, in other words, if there's anything about the American experiment, anything you want to conserve, then that's kind of conservative. If you do want a complete redo, top to bottom, that would be Bernie Sanders.

I hate myself, I'm a rich prick. That's right. He found out recently that because of, someone found out that he wrote a book and the book sold so well that he was technically a millionaire, and people called him on it, and then you're funny being... I hate myself, I hate myself, I'm a rich prick. I used to do, I don't know if I did it before, not in this series, I did Bernie Sanders as a crosswalk guard.

Oh, I don't know about that. Don't proceed. Don't proceed. The system's rigged. The system's rigged. Don't proceed. Hey, mister. What do they call you?

Bernie. Bernie Sanders. I never heard of you. He said, I think if you were on SNL now, you'd be doing a Bernie Sanders. Well, SNL's, which is just different, Larry David really looked like Bernie Sanders, and so... You know, it's strange. The show changed that you and Phil Hartman, back in the day, you guys would play everybody.

And then they got into this thing of, let's bring in Matt Damon, let's bring in Alec Baldwin, let's bring in... They just... It's different people. Let's bring in Robert De Niro. And I wonder if that ever pisses off the cast, like, hey, what are we doing? I don't know. We were very lucky.

I mean, we didn't really have... I think Dan Ockroyd came in once and did Bob Dole, but that was about it. Yeah, remember that. But yeah, I did George Bush senior doing him, doing that way. You know, when I did the Seinfeld thing and we were doing four hours, no, what are you doing? No. What were you doing?

Just back at him, people don't know. Comedians in cars with Jerry. And right as he's going to drop me off in the car, he goes, my favorite thing ever did was George Bush senior. And I go, really? Why? He goes, because it didn't sound anything like him. So it became, like, you know, my stress puppet side of me.

I do use George Bush senior making a list of what I'm doing in order to calm it down. So I'd be like, here, here we are, counting needs a friend, counting, Matt, Son, Dana, doing that thing, talking, airwolf, Stitcher, Conoco, monetization. But you know what? I we've talked about this a lot. I'm never a fan of an accurate. If an impression is incredibly accurate, I get bored by it. What I love is when people are silly putty and they stretch it out.

And so you would, I remember, because I was there for the whole arc of it, you started doing George Bush senior and then you came, you got to not going to do it, not going to do it. But then by the end you're going, now I got that, now I got that, now I got that. And you were, and I was delighted because I thought you, it's almost like you're going to go insane if you don't stretch it out to the point of absurdity. Kevin thinks I get bored, but I do think that that was such a slow build that the audience came along with me.

Yes, they did. But then not going to that. Here is something that is interesting. I'm going to play this for you and the listeners. So I had bronchitis in January. So I had seen Paul McCartney on 60 Minutes and I realized that my Paul McCartney with bronchitis was a very different Paul McCartney and it seemed like it captured something. So I started to record that morning because I knew I was going to run out of this when

Paul comes off the road and the way he talks. So should I just press? Sure. So here it is. So this was, it's a once in a lifetime chance to do a more accurate Paul and I was just riffing, not trying to be funny. John and I, you know, we had a bit of a competition, you know, it's just normal, you know, we were mates, you know, we were lads and it was like, you know, what's he doing?

You know, what do I do? You know, he came up with the primary, you know, I want to hold your hand, you know, give me your hand, let's hold hands, you know, to do, you know, and I had, I saw a girl standing there, you know, she was just 17, a real beauty queen and, you know, John said, well, hold on, let's not, you know, and you know what I mean, you know, it's just like changed the whole course, you know, so we collaborated in songs like that, you know, a lot, you know, when John came up with, you know, I'm only sleeping, you know, I'm sleeping, everybody leave me alone, you know, after that, I and Eleanor Rigby was just like

a toe tapper away, and George Modern says, put violins, you know, like, you know, base on, you know, something is like, do, do, do, do, you know, Eleanor Rigby, you know, she's got a face and a jaw draw, you know, she can find the face to do all the people looking at her face. You know, these were great days, really a lot of fun, but I can't say what they, first of all, I love that you're obsessed with Paul for a brief time had bronchitis. So then you have to learn how to do him with bronchitis, which is completely unnecessary and a different rhythm, but hold on, hold on, I want to get to something, but my favorite

thing about your Paul is I know how he tries so hard to be casual about everything. So he when he references these iconic songs, I love that he intentionally doesn't know the lyrics. Yeah, she was just 17 and you know, the beef was very lean and you're like, no, that's not, and then do, do, do, do, do, do, no, that wasn't it at all, and you know that's not it. I know, like I said, these are brilliant pop masterpieces and that's extenuating his casualness about it to the point where he's just being so face to the jaw, no, no, to

the faces, you know, do, do, do, do, get the face in the face, you know, yesterday, where's yesterday, how about tomorrow, you know that song, but to be so I'm only sleeping, just leave me alone. No, that's not the song. So this one was just me trying throughout the week and my voice is a little raw now from screaming, but you said who does George on one of our podcasts. So I took it upon myself to try to find the beginnings of George, not saying it's perfect. This is a quick one.

Here it is me in my apartment trying to think about how George Harrison's specific voice works. John and Paul were sort of the primary songwriters of the Beatles in the early days and I would sort of, you know, learning like an apprentice of some sort. Later on I was very lucky to get a couple of A-sides before the band broke up, you know, but I really learned from John and Paul, you know, about the middle eight and certain chords and progressions and things and then eventually, you know, maybe people would say the student became the teacher, you know, that's too cheekier perhaps.

So you're going insane basically doing the Beatles alone in your apartment. Yes. So what's happening in your life while you're deciding? Well, first of all, everybody's gone. My wife is gone. There's nobody there. Meaning they've left you forever. Well, they basically, well, they're tired of a guy talking to himself in the dark, but

this is how you learn impressions. You listen to yourself, then you do it again, you listen yourself. So this ringo is not completely accurate. I basically played for the singer, you know, he's up there singing the old reason they bashing around in the back, you know, I had no brothers that never had a brother. You know, I looked around and I asked my mom, you know, where's my brother? No brothers. And then when I met those three lads, I go, hey, here's my brothers, I love having

a brother. That's it. That's really good. I think that's really good. I think the George is the harder one to get. He's sort of the slow, careful guy. Did you, he came by Senate Live once when I was there. I was not there, but I, sorry to miss it.

Yeah. He came by and he had, he and Lauren had been having a very nice evening and had had, I think George had had quite a bit to drink and he came in to the writers room when we were all stunned, you know, George Harrison walked in and he was looking at us and he was weaving a little bit on his feet and he said, sorry, I'm his, he said, I'm as pissed as a newt. I'll never forget that. He said, sorry, I'm as pissed as a newt.

And then we were like, oh my God, and he was like, why are you all staring at me? And we were all staring at him because he's George Harrison. And then there was a, you know, the piano that's in the writer's room, he, he went and he sat at that piano and he started to play and we were like, shit, a Beatles playing on this piano. And just then as a joke, Al Franken came running out and slammed the piano shot and went quiet. I'm trying to work. And then he stopped the whole thing and George got scared and left and I was like, I mean,

it was really funny to tell and beatle to shut up with the music, but yeah, that happened. You own a home, don't you, right? I at least down here, I have a home in Marin County. What's that? I have a home in Marin County, but I have a landlord down here in Los Angeles. You have a landlord. So you live, you live in a small apartment now, a very small apartment and you, and you pretend to do be the Beatles all by yourself or in my car into your phone.

Yeah. If I took that challenge, I just became really interested between the last time we saw each other. It's like, well, what does George sound like? So I became very fascinated by that rhythm, you know, but one time I remember one time, you know, I've had trouble with landlords. I don't this time, but my wife and I rented a place in Malibu on the beach and our landlord, I guess was Eastern European.

I don't know where he's from, but we had a $30,000 deposit. And then we leave and the house is perfect. My wife kept it perfect and goes, I keep deposit. I go, what? Carpet is free. Little bit of pain missing. I keep deposit. So then I had to get an attorney to sue him and so we do all that and he's like, okay,

you can have $30,000. I said, no, hard feelings. I tried to get, but you got it. Not the problem. It was just completely cultural. Yeah. It was just like you have to, you can't blame a guy for trying. Yeah.

I try to get money. It's a barter. It's part of culture. I, your money, I try to get. If you get, I'm not mad. I just, you got the money. That's all. No hard feelings.

Like on these podcasts. You get in laugh. I get in laugh. You get in laugh. It's great. I try to get in laugh. You get in laugh. Happy for you.

So, so, so literally, did he fold the minute, the minute you, yes, the minute we put pressure. All right. All right. Here's $30,000. I don't know. I just, I didn't know you'd fight back. I tried a chance. I tried to steal.

Well, because what have you said, not worth it. Maybe you, I saw Wayne's World Movie. Maybe you have so much money, you're like, fuck it. You can have it. I don't want to fight it. All of a sudden, I see army of attorneys come at me, I'm like, okay, you have money. I don't need it. No hard feelings.

I tried to take your money, but I never tried to take your wife. I love that guy. What's that guy's name? It's not, it's not, it's not, it's not, it's not. Now, Sony, you're laughing real hard over there. What's going on? I know this guy. You know this guy, don't you?

Yeah, I do. Do you think he could potentially be someone that you know? What are you trying to say? No, no, what I'm saying is you come from a thriving Armenian culture. Okay. But that's clearly not Armenian. No, he's not Armenian. I didn't want to give it a country.

He might have been Russian, he might have been Bulgarian. It sounds very non-Armenian. But Sony was laughing really. Sonia, you were laughing really hard. Because he's right, it is cultural. I think that if they see an opportunity and they're like, why don't I just hold on to it? And then if he shows a bit of a fight,

they're like, eh, never mind, it's not worth it. I know that guy. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I find that the fascination with dialects, because, you know, long time ago, we didn't have any language across the planet. So everyone was grunting, ha, ha, ha, ha, you know, for water, ha, ha, ha.

And then I was on the plains of France at some point, some cave guy started to evolve that French dialect. You know, how did that, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, trying to point them to water, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, he's the back-acted guy. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. So it's a cultural thing,

it came from your stupid idiots. Look at the water, you can't even drink some water. And the Liverpoolians are always very curious people because everything sounds like a question. Yes, yes. So if you wanna do Liverpool, did you go to the store? I told you. I went to the store.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Well, you don't sound sure, I just told you. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. I went to the store. She's the back-acted guy. You can't sound humble with a French accent. No, you can't. I am not a very important plus.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. You can't. So there's something cultural in the same language. I try to take your cattle, your sheep, your wife, your property. But if you want it, I give back. No hard feelings. I try to strop everything from you. But I give back.

No hard feelings. Hey Conan, this is George W. Bush. Who does your hair? Stupid cuts. Just non sequiturs that mean nothing to life. Well please, they're the best. They're the best. They're the best.

She won. Did I do my avocado a bit? It's not really a bit. I don't think so, but I just said avocado. I want to hear what it is. In the middle of my notes, it just says avocado. On your notes, it says avocado, and Sona wants, you know, Sona's hungry. She wants to hear about avocado.

That is when I most feel like a first world prick is when I'm at, you know, a big grocery store, and there's a wall of avocados, and I'm really getting mad that they're not ripe, you know. God damn it. There's like a thousand avocados, stupid ripe, you know. And then you go up to the front and they go, would you like to help the children today if you get that one when you're at the cashier? Everyone's looking.

How are you supposed to answer that? Not really. Not today. Not today. Why did they need so much help? And we're from another time. Do you carry your little, you know, Whole Foods bag, because I don't have the biodegradable bag.

So they always go, would you like a bag? And you got to buy it new every time. And I go, look, no, I don't need a bag. I used to be a juggler. I'll just take my 19 items and get to the car and eat a bag. And then it's like, the groceries are $98 and they're arguing over how many bags is he getting? I don't know.

It could be two. It's $0.20 versus, you know, he's going for three. He's going for three bags. What the fuck is going on? You bought $140, which is nine avocados at Whole Foods. Yes. You know, people now are complaining. My wife today was complaining about Whole Foods and saying, oh, ever since Amazon got

it. I don't know. It's not the same old Whole Foods. And I'm thinking to myself, what do you mean? It's still got almond milk and oat milk and stuff that shouldn't be milk. What's the, what is, what is, I don't know that, but I talk about white people problems. That is something that a certain kind of white person is complaining about these days, which is not the same Whole Foods since Amazon bought it.

I'll see a group of young attractive people with smartphones, with their Starbucks out in the street. It's just like the world. It's so stupid. I hate. It's so dark. It's so stupid. God damn it.

Am I doing AOC? I don't even know. I don't know. The world is, we have 12 years and cows are farting and planes are bad. It's like a cottage industry to me. If you think of the, the channels on the left and Fox News, how they'll just show clips of the other show. There should be just each channel.

We just show Sean Hannity and they just show Rachel Maddow. Like the entire hour is just, can you believe what they said? Let's take a look. Let's take a 55 minute look at what Rachel Maddow did. I think they hang out. Don't they hang out at a bar all, you know, Anderson Cooper and Tucker Carlson. You always know Tucker Carlson thinks he's landed at a point when he giggles at the end.

Well, he says, completely stupid. He's a leprechaun. They bounce some gold. Well, he's landed a leprechaun. How could I do it? Okay. I'll let you guys pick either a talk a box or talk a box, Godfather or, what's talk a box?

That was that. Talk a box is basically in the essence about how the testosterone driven male will always, you know, take new technology and pervert it. So probably the first telegraph was like, send medicine to Dodge City. The second one was, what are you wearing? So obviously Anthony Wiener would have had no capacity to take dick pics if that technology, he would have been a guy naked with a ring code in Central Park. So then I thought phones essentially came into the home, maybe around 1910, there might

be one in the house and I thought the man paw, you know, the frontier man would go to town and maybe at one point, some man decided to attempt phone sex with his frontier wife back at the house. So it's kind of like, hello mom, wait, first to be able to get me a line of four, seven, seven, five. Hello mom, it's Paul. Oh, what are you doing calling me jibba-jabba for no soft region? I got 17 kids who attend too.

I knew these old fangled talk a box is be up to no good. Well, well, mom, these talk a box is a kind of fun. See, I met the five and die and I had a sasperilla. Paul, what are you jibba-jabbin' about? Well, mom, there was a lady mannequin in the window. Who cares about a lady mannequin in the window, Paul? Well, the lady mannequin was wearing nothing but a render things and got a man of thinking, mom.

Thinking about what? Well, I wondered what kind of underpants you got on today. Do you want to know about my underpants? Well, you have on those caught a spanky briefs or those calico print panelloons. I got you in Dodge City last year. Paul, you've lost your mind. Now bring back the bangin' and the eggs and the beans. Get your bottom here with Su-Pop.

Well, no, no, no, no, mom. While you're on your high horse, I satisfy myself by getting this new fangled talk a box and sing. Curtin' down. Ladies and gentlemen. I love that. Well, so the ones that make me happier got a man of thinking. Got a man of thinking.

And the caught a spanky briefs or those calico print panelloons I got you in Dodge City last year. So those two things make my brain happy. She was in no way aroused. I love that. That was the part I liked. Didn't get it at all. Yeah Oh, you and your crumpling my crumpley-dumpley-umpley There's other ones Godfather. Yeah, what's the Godfather all about? Godfather was because I got a couple extra dollars. I'm happy to do it But I have an extended family that if someone needs help I'm there to help which I'm happy to do it

I'm not a materialist. I have extra money. America was good. Probably a little resentful, but we'll explore that in another shot So my wife one time quipped. Hey, you're like the Godfather. So it was like, you know, so the night just Okay, what can I do for you my son? A Godfather. We live in a Sherman Orcs We'd like to add a new bathroom to our house Bathrooms can be very expensive We'd like a hardwood floor, a dual vanity, a clawfoot tub, and a steamer shower. My son's very expensive. Here's what I'm prepared to do. I'll get you a hardwood floor, single vanity, you keep your tub, no steamer shower.

Now get out of my sight. Thank you Godfather! I love that that guy lives in Sherman Orcs too. Okay, bring on the next one. Godfather, we have a granite children. We want to take them to Lake Tahoe, but we got no watercraft. Oh, kids like boats. We think of buying a waverunner. How expensive is a waverunner? $12,000!

That's very expensive. Here's what I'm prepared to do. I'll get you a rubber dinghy, a bungee cord, an inner tube, a paddle, kids will have fun. I'll get out of my sight. Dang you, Godfather! Last one. Okay. Godfather, our daughters, we tried to get them into USC, but nobody takes their applications. You help me out with the bambino problem. I can help you out with the regular sport.

They don't do the athletics, Godfather. Please, we got to get them into USC. Let's put down the rowers, put them on my machine, take a picture. I know a guy who knows a guy, I give him maybe three, five hundred thousand. I grease the bomb and the kids are gonna do the thing. Dang you, Godfather! Dang you, Godfather! Why are these Italian immigrants? They have such sophisticated needs.

Why do they have Italian accents? I don't know, I love it, I love it. It's the stuff that makes your brain happy. It makes me very happy. I want everybody to think about it. Because remember when I did your show, I got Andy to laugh really hard at Jimmy Carter going insane. Because I talk about all the presidents going insane. And now Jimmy Carter had a nervous breakdown right at the end of his presidency.

And he literally is a peanut butter farmer. So he had to bat a peanut butter and smear it on his head. And he's upset that he lost the election. He lost the election. He just went a little ballistic the last few months. And he would rub it on his head and wander around the White House at night. And the staff would go, are you okay Mr. President? I'm okay, I'm okay.

Well you got peanut butter on your hair. No I don't, no I don't. I don't got peanut butter on my hair. I got peanut butter hair. I got peanut butter hair. Are you okay sir? I'm fine with my peanut butter hair. I'm a peanut butter man, you know.

I'm a peanut butter president and a peanut butter man. I got a peanut butter tie, a peanut butter belt, peanut butter pants and peanut butter shoes. I drive a peanut butter car, a peanut butter car. I brush with a peanut butter, peanut butter brush. A peanut butter man, a peanut butter car, a peanut butter. So that was- Oh my God.

Oh my God. I know. And so was this, again, if I were to knock on your door, let's say I was to walk up to your door in your apartment here in Los Angeles. Yes. And you were there alone. Is this what, would I be here in like- Peanut butter man.

Peanut butter man. So everyone doesn't think I'm insane. I was in Dallas going down to play Houston. And all the presidents were there for some big event. And so I had a flight of fancy that they would just ditch Jimmy Carter. So it was the idea of Bush Senior, Junior, Obama, and W were in the room, you know, and it's like, hey you guys, this is Jimmy Carter.

Can I come in? You're like, it's declared. Well, that's okay, Jimmy. Nothing's going on in here. You don't want to come in. Yeah. Well, I'd like to come in. I'd like to come in and hang out with you guys.

Well, we'll be out in a bit. We're just kind of cruising down here having fun. Yeah. We're just, we're, we're drawing up a map, the Middle East or something. Yep. We can't. We don't know the time. Get you in there.

Remember, remember another time. We can't do it now. That's all. That's all. That's all. That's all. That's all. That's all.

So that was where Jimmy Carter came from. And then I had him having a nervous breakdown. This is the final episode. Final episode of our six mini series run with Dana Carvey and experimental. I don't know about you. I, um, this is just a blast for me. This is a blast. I hope you're having fun.

Oh, totally. I, you know, um, when I say, you know, because it was six episodes, I'm like, will we run out? But I know that it's, it's a bottomless pit, especially with looping around and coming around and where there's a bottomless pit of need. There's a bottomless bit of comedy. That's something I find out about myself a long time ago. And I think it applies to both of us.

Can't we ever declare victory and just sit on top of the mountain? No. No, we have to be quasi tortures our whole. Yes, we do. Really? That's the one thing therapists don't get. Therapists are like, you can be happy and still be funny. I'm out of here and I'm not paying you anymore.

I feel like I have such a reservoir of neuroses and, you know, anger and sadness that needs to be filtered through the comedy that I'd like to be a little happier because it's, it's a massive reservoir. Yeah. I could never run out. Right. So I'd like to get like 30% happier. The good part is the part of that I struggle with in life is that I don't blame you.

I've never thought to myself, this is really Conan's fault. My problems. That's nice. I've never thought to blame you. And I don't know why you would in the first place, a random pick, but I just want to let you know, I have never thought it's Conan. It's Conan. He's it.

Yeah. That's it. He's the one. Yeah. What's your name, mister? What's your name? Conan. Conan O'Brien.

I don't know who that is. Wait. You're a guy with a podcast. I had a show first and I still have the show. Whatever. All right. We're going to wrap this up, but let's see. Thank you.

Thank you, Conan. Thank you sincerely. Thank you. Thank you for doing this. This is, if you asked me at any time in the last 20 years of my life, what would you most like to do? I might say, Hey, what about a situation where I'm in a room with Dana and we have microphones and I just get to have the time of my life with him.

So God bless Dana Carvey and let's maybe in the future, there's a chance for us to do more. This platform exists so that people, if they care, they're listening in and seeing us more organically being the way we are. And I think that's really a gift sincerely. That's the best part. Yeah. So it's really fun.

I like that. And I like the fact that there's really good sushi about a five minute walk from where we're taping this right now. Every time I do comedy with you, there's usually a meal component, even if I've already, even if I ate a half a ham right before I came. You can't turn on Coney, get so sad eyes. We're going to wrap it up there. I was kidding.

He was always brilliant. I like that guy and his ideas. All right, Dana Carvey. See you soon. See you soon. La-di-da. Conan O'Brien needs a friend with Sonam of Sessian and Conan O'Brien as himself. Produced by me, Matt Gorely, executive produced by Adam Sacks and Jeff Ross at Team Coco and
