Starting point is 00:00:00 Summer S'mores with Conan and the Chill Chumps, a six-part series with Conan O'Brien, Sonam of Sessian, and Matt Gorley. Let's get started. Hello, and welcome to a very special episode of Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend, series of shows, something we attempted once before, I think two years ago,
Starting point is 00:00:22 called Conan and the Chill Chumps. Nope, nope, nope. Summer S'mores with Conan and the Chill Chumps. Yeah, yeah. Oh, okay. How's that obsessive compulsive disorder coming? How's that asshole galactica syndrome coming? Oh, what?
Starting point is 00:00:40 What a nice start to a lovely summer day. We started two years ago with a segment called, I'm sorry, Summer S'mores with Conan and the Chill Chumps. I think it began when we had a conversation about s'mores. That's right. I maintained that s'mores blow, that nobody really likes them. That's a very flawed American treat.
Starting point is 00:01:03 And just, so you've got to calm down a little bit, and then we'll get, you can build up to a rage, but for now, we talked about it, and then it became this series where we just, it's just the three of us shooing the fat. And what we thought we'd do is we'd start in studio today, and this would be the first episode, but then we would move to an outdoor summer locale.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Where we can literally have a campfire. Yes, we're going to have an actual campfire. And so I can't think of anything more exciting than listening to people who were inside, now being outside and having a fire. And I think that's the kind of excitement we bring to people. I think there's a coziness to that that people will find out.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I agree. I don't know why you took there to be a sarcastic tone in my voice. Because maybe it was the look on your face. No, not at all. I had a stroke a few years ago, and it's made me look very skeptical, and like I've just had a mouthful of shit.
Starting point is 00:02:00 Ha ha ha. Anyway, You mean s'mores? So, what we're going to do is- I'm scared to talk. That's the environment I've always wanted to face. Oh my God. So, what we're going to do is we're going to start
Starting point is 00:02:12 today's episode of Summer S'mores with Conan and the Chill Chums. That would be Matt and Sona. We're going to start it here in our studio, our brand new spanking studio. And then we're going to move to an outdoor location. Are you comfortable saying where we're going to go, Matt? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:26 And I think- I had big ideas about us going to Yellowstone. I thought it would be really cool if we went up to the like Pacific Northwest, maybe to the San Juan Islands. Just some amazing, maybe up to Northern Maine, up there in the far reaches up near the Canadian border. So, I had at least a great ideas,
Starting point is 00:02:43 and I told you money's no object, the sky's the limit. What did you come up with, Matt? My backyard. Your backyard. And I'm going to pocket that travel money. Oh, yeah, because I did. You did ask for the cash. You asked for the cash up front.
Starting point is 00:02:57 No, well, we've got our- I gave you $600,000 to work us out, and now we're doing it in your backyard. Because I got a little, I got a new park bench. We did talk about the fact that you live on the west side, both Sona and I live on the east side in the Dinas. And that's two to one. We have a lot of people listening
Starting point is 00:03:15 who don't know what the Dinas are. So, let's tell them. You're talking about your Pasadena, your Altadena, your Dina and DeLuca. I mean, these are places on the far east side of the Los Angeles metropolitan area. Is that true? I wouldn't say the far east side
Starting point is 00:03:32 in the greater scheme of things. Sona lives, I've been to Sona's house. It took several days to get there. Three boroughs died underneath me. It's way, way out there. You're the far one. The greater community of this world here that we live and work in lives on the east,
Starting point is 00:03:48 where you live far on the west. Yeah, yeah. Whose name is in the title on the show? Friend, Rupert friend. Jesus, you're weird. What an odd fellow. Okay, I'm, as you know, I'm a democratic man. And I believe in, you know, the power
Starting point is 00:04:11 of different voices being raised and then letting the majority rule. I've always felt that way. So we're going to go to your house, which is in Pasadena. And we're gonna be in your backyard. I don't remember there being a backyard. Well, you haven't been in it.
Starting point is 00:04:27 You came over one time when we recorded that quarantine episode and you guys came in the front door and we recorded and you left the front door. Right, yeah. Back when people thought COVID was gonna be a thing. Back in those early paranoid days, two and a half years ago.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Anyway, I do remember that. That was very strange. Cause remember we all gathered there and we thought, what is this COVID thing? I guess if you gather in groups of like five, you can't get it. This is early on. We didn't know anything about it.
Starting point is 00:04:55 This is back when we were being told, wipe down all your groceries. Because COVID is spread by touching a box of Lucky Charms that just came from a Ralph's. Like we didn't know anything. No, and we didn't really touch each other. There are half of us that were- I kept trying to touch you.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Yeah, that was part of the reason we want to move this outside. But we wouldn't touch each other but we'd be in the same room. Remember that? Yeah, and then it's later turned out that, right, that doesn't work. But there were early days, we didn't know.
Starting point is 00:05:26 And here we are now, two and a half years later and we're gonna return to your house. And we're triumphant. And we are going to celebrate summer s'mores with Conan and the Chilchums. I thought in order to prepare us, it might be good to add some summer sounds right now. Even though we're in studio,
Starting point is 00:05:45 so maybe we could start with those cicadas, you know? Yeah, so you want those 17 year gestating insects that come up from the ground and make a really harsh noise? No, how about that just that grasshoppery sound? Oh, okay, sure. Yeah, the chirping of grasshoppers. The chirping of grasshoppers, I'd like there to be. So let's start with that, let's lay that in.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Do you want to suggest something? Yeah. No. You don't have any summer sounds? I have no summer sounds. Come on. I really, I don't. I don't know, you're talking about sounds?
Starting point is 00:06:16 How about? Yeah. What are you talking about? Are you even listening to me? I'm barely here. I'm so sorry. Oh, I love you. I'm barely here.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Can I just tell people what's happening? Sona, just before we went on Mike, found out that she neglected to make a hair appointment with, I guess this guru who knows how to do very curly hair and all of her appointments book up immediately at the first of the month. They do. You found out seconds before we went on Mike
Starting point is 00:06:43 and I think you haven't been listening to a word I've said because you're thinking about your curly hair. No idea what's going on. I'm sorry, I really care and I wanted, but all I'm thinking about is how I have to wait so much longer now for appointments to open up. What does she do that you can't get done anywhere else? I'm serious.
Starting point is 00:06:59 She just knows curly hair. She just knows how to cut curly hair. But no one else does? You can't go to any schmo and be like, can you cut my hair? And like summers coming up, I just got highlights. All I was thinking about was how nice the new curls would look with the highlights. And now I'm like, ugh, and you're tucking.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Plus you've got a big event coming up. Yeah, I do. You've got a big event which is the christening. Yes. Of your two boys, two twins, Mikey and Charlie. I will be at that ceremony. You're the godfather. I'm the godfather.
Starting point is 00:07:29 You're the most important god. Oh, come on. Why would you do that? You have all people should know. What are you thinking? I don't know what I was thinking. So I'm going to wear a ceremonial robe. This is true.
Starting point is 00:07:42 I'm wearing a ceremonial robe. Yeah, he is. I am. I am. And I have to say certain things in Armenian. And you just sent me the text today with the pronunciations. Did you send me a vocal tract tube? I did.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Yeah, so I have to learn how to say these different things. It is not an easy language. It's not. It is not. But it's not a lot of stuff that you have to say. But yeah, I'm really sorry I'm not paying attention. You did also, did you say chickadas? Isn't it cicadas?
Starting point is 00:08:05 It's cicadas, yeah. But what if it's a girl, it's a chick. What if what they sent you in Armenian is just like you and our meaning saying, I, Conan, O'Brien, hereby decree all my property to Sonia. Yeah, that's what she's going to do. Sonia has worked it out so that I'm basically, all of my income and all of my holdings
Starting point is 00:08:24 are being transferred to the Moisesian family. I, Conan, O'Brien, promise never to be the godfather of these two children. Yeah, and never to go near them again. So anyway. Sorry, I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention. But we got some good information out just with that. That was, because you weren't paying attention,
Starting point is 00:08:42 we learned that your hair is very aggressively curly and needs a special treatment to be uncurly. I wouldn't say aggressively. Grasshoppers have been chirping this whole time. So if we want to layer anything else in, I would like an owl. Okay. An occasional owl. That'll come in three, two, one.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Sorry, that was a hawk. Hold on, three, two, one. You probably don't even need to have put that in because there's probably owls where you live anyway. There are owls where we live. There are us too. Okay, but instead of that owl, in a way owls are supposed to be really smart,
Starting point is 00:09:15 they're a symbol of wisdom. Can you occasionally, between the regular owl sounds, can you just add, ooh, I'm smart, I'm smart, ooh. That's stupid. Just occasionally. You got it, I'll take that sound bud. Ooh, I'm well educated, ooh.
Starting point is 00:09:28 And give me the I'm smart again so I have it clean. Ooh, I'm smart, I'm smart. You got it. I'm smart, I'm smart. How about an occasional like a bear just rustling around in the blueberry bushes? Yeah, I'll put some blueberry bushes in too. Well, they make a sound,
Starting point is 00:09:43 just sort of a rustle, rustle. You got it. Or just audio from Kurt Russell. I don't care, I'm on a roll, I'm on fire. How can you tell that it's a blueberry bush? They have a dist, you'll see. And you know the audio from Kurt Russell, I'm gonna do is the one from Tombstone where he goes,
Starting point is 00:09:58 you tell him I'm coming for him. Or whatever it is. And I'm bringing, and hell's coming with me. I'm bringing, and hell's coming with me. And hell's coming with me. You tell him I'm coming, and hell's coming with me, you hear? Hell's coming with me.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Oh God, what a great movie. I said, I know. Oh, you haven't seen it? I know, Taks really upset about it, but I will. Okay, I'm doing my best to keep us on track here. Oh. It's like herding kittens, one with very curly hair that needs a cut.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Now that you said I need a cut, that's all I can think of. You gotta stop bringing it up. Well, okay. So, I am preparing us to be outdoors by creating in studio. We've added some sounds. We're listening to them right now.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Maybe a lone coyote. Sure. Oh, did you hear him in the distance? I do, that's spooky. That's cool. I should say yes. I should say yes. Uh.
Starting point is 00:10:59 So, Pasadena. And this will be at night as well. Yeah. I'm doing this starting at seven, and then we're gonna record for a while. Yeah, that's nice. Can people tell where it's at night? Sure.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Well, first of all, it's seven in LA in the summer. There's only six more hours of daylight. Yeah, that's gonna be 98 degrees. What a great day. And in Pasadena, by the way, can I just say sorry? It's so hot. Pasadena is a frying pan. I know.
Starting point is 00:11:23 We can start later if we want. I looked, it's gonna be 83 that day, so around seven we're probably looking at mid-70s. Oh, she's like, yeah. As my wife says, early and late 70s. What? For temperature. She says that?
Starting point is 00:11:35 They're like, what's the temperature today? It's the early 70s. Wow, so as hot as it was when Nixon was in his first term. It's 1971 out there, and that's the late 70s. What's the temperature today? Watergate hearings. The cars just released their solo album. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:11:52 It's 1979, it's the late 70s. I think we've got some nice summer sounds. Maybe off in the distance we hear a hobo blowing into, playing his harmonica by the train tracks. Oh, that's nice. Isn't that nice? Way, way off there is a, it's an old hobo. He's just had, he's just had the can of beans.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Yeah, beans. And he's, he lit up that little piece of a stoke he had. Yeah, that's nice. Now I am gonna put a moratorium on this because this is a lot of work for me. Stoke, whatever. No sweat off my back. No.
Starting point is 00:12:24 I'll be comfortably at home on the west side when you're slaving away in one of the dinas. Yeah. For my money, nothing beats a fire. Yeah, I agree. I don't mean like a warehouse fire because that, that can get out of control. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:45 I mean, I'll stop and watch one of those, especially if I started it. But no, I love a roaring fire. I really do. Me too. A fire in the fireplace or a campfire. I think life's best moments happen around a roaring fire. And I'm always hypnotized by them
Starting point is 00:13:00 because I think this is the exact same experience that everyone in history's had. This is the beginning of time we've been building fires or something communal and calming about them. The fireside chat. Exactly. It's a lovely tradition. And I think a smokeless fire pit from Solo Stove
Starting point is 00:13:18 makes your outdoor moments even more memorable. Let me explain. A lot of people get intimidated about making a fire. You shouldn't with Solo Stove instead of having to constantly dodge campfire fumes. You know what? You build a fire and suddenly the fumes, the smoke are going right into your face
Starting point is 00:13:32 and you're screaming obscenities and your kids are crying. That's no good. I don't know if that happens to everybody. It doesn't. I've looked around. It's I'm the only one. But with Solo Stove, you can sit back, relax
Starting point is 00:13:43 and actually enjoy the fire because everything's under control. It has stainless control. Yeah. Well, control is a word I just made up intentionally. I've heard it both ways. Yeah. No, what I meant was,
Starting point is 00:13:53 and this is the reason I invented that word on the fly, which is pretty ingenious, is that you can, things are so under control, you feel like you could take a stroll. You can control. You know, I'm gonna give you this one. I'm gonna give you that one. Let me explain something.
Starting point is 00:14:08 That's rock solid. With the Solo Stove, they have the stainless steel constructions designed to regulate air flow and burn more efficiently with so little smoke, you wonder, how there's so much fire. You know, you'll say, is there really, there's all this fire, where's the smoke? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:22 It's the design people. It's the perfect catalyst for getting outside and spending more time with family, and well, not in this case, but friends. Oh. They're easy to light with a few bits of starter. Your fire is blazing in minutes, plus Solo Stove offers a lifetime warranty
Starting point is 00:14:37 and a 30 day free return policy. Can I just say that I was a Solo Stove owner and user before this ad campaign even happened. Wow. I love them. Is this an ad campaign? I was just talking about Solo Stove. Oh, so was I.
Starting point is 00:14:49 I thought you were doing an ad campaign. No, no, no. We're just gathered here tonight to talk about Solo Stove as enthusiasts. Let's all solo it up. It just came up. What I'm saying is you had one beforehand, and I remembered you telling me about it.
Starting point is 00:15:01 And then I saw someone, people sometimes build a fire on the beach, you know, up the coast, and I saw one and I was like, what is that? That looks really cool. Then of course, we started working with the good people at Solo Stove. They supplied us with one, and we've been using it for our summer smore series,
Starting point is 00:15:17 and it's fantastic. Yeah, because you saw it on the beach because they actually have little carrying cases that you can take with you. It's portable. If you get the right size. These things are amazing and they create little like cyclones of fire
Starting point is 00:15:30 with very little smoke, and you can put in their color packs and get a little fireworks shirt. And also think about the cleanup. Think about a fire pit. You have to dig a pit. That's like digging your own grave. Right.
Starting point is 00:15:41 At gunpoint. I don't want to do that. There is no better way to burn an effigy of your boss Conan O'Brien than a Solo Stove. Right on. And so we did this. We unboxed it today. It was really fun.
Starting point is 00:15:52 We set it up. I thought this is going to be difficult. No, it was the easiest thing in the world to get this going. So what do you got to say about this? I just think that you guys, whatever you're saying is a lot of good stuff. But aren't you enjoying the Solo Stove experience?
Starting point is 00:16:05 I'm so close. I don't think I've ever been this close to a fire and I made it. I just made a smore on it and I have smore everywhere, but I never got that close to a fire before. Well, I think a real fire that's unregulated would be dangerous for you.
Starting point is 00:16:18 You've got so much product in your hair. All right. Moving on. Moving on. That blend, you know? But Solo Stove, very safe. Easy to clean up. Right now, you can get big discounts
Starting point is 00:16:29 on all Solo Stove fire pits. Use promo code Conan at solostove.com for an extra $10 off their already great prices. That's solostove.com promo code Conan for an extra $10 off. So where exactly are you again? Tell people. What?
Starting point is 00:16:49 Which part of Los Angeles is this? And the address, please. Yeah. No, no, no. Go to Dina, but tell people where that is. It's north of Pasadena. Because when I drove there, it's kind of in the mountains. It is.
Starting point is 00:16:59 I can't get home insurance. What? Do you still not have home insurance? I have home insurance, but I paid a fortune for it because I'm in a fire zone. Right. You know. That's a serious problem.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Sorry. I know. I brought down the mood. You want to go back to hobos and memes? No, no, no. It's good for people to hear little pieces of reality and that's a reality, which is it's hard for you to get fire insurance.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Yeah. Also, it doesn't help that your home is made of old matchsticks. And you're an arson. Yeah. Just. You know what? They told us a couple years ago
Starting point is 00:17:32 that we were on the brink of evacuation. So I took this ice bucket that my grandma had and I was like, this is a one of a kind bucket. No one will ever have this ice bucket. And I saw it two days ago. Like in someone's kitchen. My grandma's ice bucket that I thought was special. Wait, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Back up, what's an ice bucket? Is this 1902? What are you doing? It's an old ice bucket. What is it? Ice bucket. My grandma, my dad's, I didn't have a lot of stuff and so I got her ice bucket
Starting point is 00:18:00 and she didn't have a lot of stuff. I remember when I was a kid, you could go and take a tour of John F. Kennedy's birthplace, which is on I think Beale Street and Brookline, that town I grew up in. That was a big thing to do if you're an Irish Catholic kid in Brookline. Wow, we're going to go over
Starting point is 00:18:13 and we're going to tour JFK's birthplace. Same with Whittier and Nixon. Yeah. And so they take you from room to room and you get to each room, you push a button and you hear Rose Kennedy, JFK's mother, she made, you know, sometime in the late sixties, she made a tape of each room
Starting point is 00:18:27 and it was her distinctive voice. And she would say in this room, the ambassador would read the newspaper and the boys would play with their toys. And then you get to the back and I remember there was this kooky crazy ice box. Well, I didn't know what it was. And she would say, here's the ice box
Starting point is 00:18:46 and the ice man would come every day and he'd say, that boy there will be president one day. He'll narrowly defeat Nixon. Wait, who? So specific. Yeah. Nixon's had an ice box today. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Yeah, if they all have an ice box and he will narrowly and then he will be president and he will have, you know, and it was just like, you listen to this and go like, this is so crazy. And I remember thinking as a child, I want this in my house someday. I want people to go from room to room
Starting point is 00:19:15 in the house that I'm living in in Brookline. And I want them to push a button, but I also want it to be Rose Kennedy. Here's where Conan thought about his talk show. I've never seen it, but I hear it's dreadful. I hear his humor is often quite crass and the ambassador would come in and say, I don't like this Conan.
Starting point is 00:19:36 You know, anyway, but I had that same thought. That's taking you back for a little bit. But my point is we're gonna be going to Gurley's house. Yeah. We're gonna get this back around. Wait, you're getting back around like back on track? Yeah. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:19:52 That's cool. We'll probably get right back off track, like right away. We don't really have a track. What is the track? I know, what is the track? We're just describing that you live in Altadena. Yeah, I know. Which, and I drove there and I have to say.
Starting point is 00:20:02 It's lovely. Yeah, it's beautiful. What were you gonna say? It's a while to get there. It's way out there. It is. But you have a very nice home. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:20:10 Uninsurable, but nice. It is uninsurable. So thanks for bringing that up in like a jokey way. This is why we're not doing the open campfire at Sonna's place. I know. It was just, it was no question. Yeah, that's all they want in Altadena is a couple of.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Well, podcasters are moving into the neighborhood and they're building fires at night. Kona and O'Brien responsible for the destruction of six square miles of Angela's National Forest. Yeah. Six square miles in three homes. Sorry, it's very sparsely low. It's sparsely populated.
Starting point is 00:20:41 That's what's so nice about it though. It is nice. It's lovely. It's lovely. Yeah. Hey guys, I'm hesitant to point this out, but we're having a grand old time like just a bunch of chill chums.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Well, you and I are the chill chums. That's how this whole thing started. Yeah. Kona never became a chill chum. Because he's not chill. Yeah. We were going to try to teach you how to be a chill chum. It's just not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:21:05 No, it's not. Maybe over the next five episodes in the nighttime, Eastern LA, Pasadena, sunset with the cicadas chirping in the fire, crackling. No, I don't think so. I think that what makes this work, if it does work at all, I don't know if it does. This mixture is, you two are just wildly satisfied
Starting point is 00:21:28 with yourselves. Yeah. And I'm not. I always think I could improve. There's more to do on this earth. We have limited amount of time. Oh, so you were saying wildly satisfied in a negative way. Take it how you will.
Starting point is 00:21:42 I was taking it in a very positive way. Well, see, that's what a chill chum would do. That's right. Because we're content with who we are. Yeah. We're secure with ourselves. Yeah. We're not like, oh, we need to be better.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Nor do we need to phrase things efficiently or effectively. No. We don't care. We don't care. We don't care. I got your back chill chums, CC. Always, always. Now, the chill chums, this will take the place.
Starting point is 00:22:11 These episodes will take the place for a while, the fan episodes. That's right. That's correct. Yeah. So you won't be hearing the fan episodes, but we will get back to those because my life's blood is talking to people who are excited about Conan O'Brien and being trapped in the wilderness of Pasadena with two people who got over me long before they even met me is my idea of hell, is my idea of an absolute hell.
Starting point is 00:22:36 If you were trapped in the wilderness, how long do you think you would last? I think I would befriend the animals. I would make them laugh. I would have lots of anecdotes about show business. I would tell them about behind the scenes little secrets of things that went wrong, you know, and celebrities who were difficult. And the squirrels would be like, wow, that's really, because he seems like such a nice guy, seems like a nice guy.
Starting point is 00:23:01 You know, that's the image, but it's not the reality. I'm curious, we could try this out because we get a lot of squirrels in the backyard. And at that time, we get a fair amount of rats, too. So we'll see. Do you really have rats? Oh, yeah, yeah. But these are Pasadena rats. They're older, genteel rats, right?
Starting point is 00:23:15 They're old money rats. They're old Republican rats. Every now and then a rat will scurry by and go like, where's Eisenhower? They live in small craftsman style rat houses. Yeah. They drive around, their cars have very low mileage. They enter a float in the parade every day. That's amazing.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Yeah. They're rat float. They're not the most woke rats you'll ever meet. They have a ways to go. Pasadena is very liberal, but it's very stodgy liberal. But that's maybe, you like it there. It seems like a good fit for you. Oh, I love it.
Starting point is 00:23:51 But we don't live in Grandal, Pasadena. We live in the Oroio Hills area, like kind of like Sona. But your house is like an old craftsman style home, isn't it? It's kind of a fake. It's from 47. I knew it. It's like a fusion. Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:04 I knew. I walked in that house and it has all the elements of craftsmen, but like you, I smelled something. A rat? A rat? I smelled a conservative rat. Well, you think I'm conservative? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:24:13 No. Please. Don't, my thanks to the Oroio's protest. And let me just talk a little bit more about Nixon. Yeah. Yeah. You bring up Nixon at the drop of a hat. You decided to live in Pasadena.
Starting point is 00:24:25 I think you've got good old Republican values. My family does. I do come from a very Republican family. I could tell. Your mom, Winifred? Yeah, she's not anymore though, Trump. Wilford. Not to get political.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Oh, Wilford, sorry. She kicked it to the curb. Oh, Trump pushed her over the edge? Yeah. I think Trump either pushed people over the edge, meaning I can't do this anymore. I'm not going to be a Republican, or it drove people absolutely cuckoo crazy. Yeah. It was one of those two.
Starting point is 00:24:50 Let's get out of politics. Yeah, let's get out of politics. That's making me very nervous. This isn't chill. No, you're right. Yeah. You're right. This isn't chill conversation.
Starting point is 00:24:59 How about this? How about the owls now starts to say, oh, that wasn't cool, oh, stay off politics, oh, your vote doesn't count, oh, keep it apolitical, oh, evergreen, Electrolux College is a scam, your voice can't be heard. Who are these two owls? Yeah, what is your owl doing? He's a nihilist. He's such a coward thing.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Mine's a nihilist. Oh, okay. Mine was just saying, I don't like this political comedy, keep it kind of chill and fun. Yeah. And then you brought in a nihilist owl. Yeah, I mean, we're living in a simulation. Get Bitcoin. Oh.
Starting point is 00:25:35 I just read Sartre. What's the point? I love summer. Yeah. Where'd that come from? I'm sorry, I just really wanted to do this. It's like you burped. It's like you burped.
Starting point is 00:25:50 You know what's so funny, if Sona occasionally got gas, but it was getting us back on track, so her burps were things like, well, I like summer. Well, back on point, it is June. Summer. I wish. June. Well, we are here in Gurley's yard. Month, first month of summer.
Starting point is 00:26:10 All right. Well, listen. Yes. This was the first episode of Conan the Chilled Chums. I don't know how this went. Summer. Summer is with Conan the Chilled Chums. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Oh, man. It's nails against a blackboard when you upset his little world so slightly. It's so great. I mean, I love it. I'm having fun here, but let's get the title right. Okay. Summer S'mores with Conan the Chilled Chums. This was the first episode.
Starting point is 00:26:34 I don't know how it went. And maybe the listeners will tell us. Maybe they'll say, hey, wait a minute. Those Conan talking to fans are really good. What the hell was this? How do we pull the ripcord on this? What happened here? Bibbled, babbled, they soiled themselves.
Starting point is 00:26:51 It was an audio soiling of the pants for half an hour. And we may get a huge blowback. And I am like a cat. I'm very nimble on my paws. If I sense that this is going downhill, I'm going to pull the plug on this thing. And I'll be talking to a fan in Cairo before you can say, Jack Spratt could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean. Do you hear me?
Starting point is 00:27:11 Yeah. I do. That was cool. But can we make s'mores at your house? Did you guys already say it? We are going to do this. I know. I got you covered.
Starting point is 00:27:19 It's okay. We're going to get your hair. I know someone. I'll find you someone. I don't know someone. You don't know this person. No, no. I'm telling you, there's got to be more than one person that can deal with your hair.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I don't know. Now I have just my cycle. What does she have? Like a cyclotron? Does she have a special device? I mean, what does she have? Is she herself a curly-haired person? Yes.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Yes. Of course. Because I've seen her Instagram page. She gets it. She just knows what to do. You can fake those things. I faked an Instagram page. That wasn't my torso.
Starting point is 00:27:46 You can't do that. I do. You don't know how to do it. No. You don't know how to do it. Fake an Instagram page. I love summer. Guys.
Starting point is 00:27:54 I love summer. Yep. This thing's a mess. Listen. Good luck to all. I'm sorry. Can we make s'mores? Yes.
Starting point is 00:28:02 That's the point. So what we're going to do is one of the rare things Conan, you and I have ever agreed on is that we think s'mores are overrated. Yes. Sona's strong in the camp. Pro. I don't just think they're overrated. I think it's an actively terrible treat.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Okay. We're going to be a little bit more centrist on this, but what we're going to do is we're going to make s'mores on this first episode and we're going to... The second episode. Right. First, I'm at campfire episode. Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, he's OCD's croc.
Starting point is 00:28:25 This is the stickler. Wow. I'm just... I love it when the stickler's like, so anyway, next episode on the first episode. Wham! Wham! All right. No more joking.
Starting point is 00:28:35 Do get the title right, though, from here on out. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Summer s'mores with the chum chills. Conan Gorley and Sona lives far awayzian.
