Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend · Dan Levy · 20 Apr 2026 podcast

So as hard as it is, there does come a point.

I think age is a big part of it, too.

Like I'm now 42.

I don't care as much as I did when I was 20.

When I was 20, everything was consequential.

Yeah.

And so when everything is consequential and you are an anxious person, you will worry about everything because everything.

you're so unaware of how little it matters in the end.

So now I think I get to look back on my own experiences and kind of the experiences I've had with my family and all of that kind of stuff and celebrate it.

Instead of continue to wear it.

I'm a less anxious person than I am now.

And I do actually think at the core of the show, it's an examination of what we inherit, what that kind of ancestral legacy

trauma that kind of trickles down from, in this case, like, Matriarch to Laurie to the kids.

You know, the very first scene of the show, Nona is dying.

And she's a yeller.

And then you instantly see that this yelling streak has just found its way through three generations of this family.

And all we try to do as a generation below is push back against what we're inheriting.

And sometimes you can do it and sometimes you can't.

You just have to let it happen.

But it's fun to be able to like write about the minutia of anxiety and how it affects people.
