Description

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.

The only person who looks stupider than Bill Burr right now is Whitney Cummings. It's amazing how many people I lost respect for. The doubling down of calling critics racist. Thinking we have a problem with who is in the audience and not who booked the show. Comparing playing the comedy store to playing for the president of the United States. Just the most infuriating gaslighting. Fuck Bill Burr fuck these greedy pigs.

Burr needs to donate the money he got from the Saudis if he wants to be respected from now on.

Bill Burr sold his soul to the corrupt Saudi Government for a cool million. I love Bill Burr, but fuck him for this, and fuck Conan for not holding his feet to the fire.
