What are the memorable moments from 2024?
Fall is here, hear the yell. Back to school, ring the bell. Brand new shoes, walking blues. Climb the fence, books and pens. I can tell that we are gonna be friends.
Hello, welcome to Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend. Sorry, we just ate and there was a little gurgle there and I really apologize. And if you didn't notice it, now everyone's rewinding so that they can hear it. Why am I talking? Can I start over again?
No, I think we nailed it.
Hello and welcome to Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend. I'm Sona Movsesian.
And I'm Matt Gourley.
And you're Matt Gourley.
Well, you pointed at me, but at the same time, you took a breath like you were going to speak. That was very confusing.
Yes. And then I don't do this usually. But, you know, Conan is not here in case anyone has noticed. It's me talking. I'm Sona. I am not Conan. And the reason that he's not here.
I've never done this before. But shut up.
The reason Conan is not here is he's back east with his family. He unfortunately lost both his parents not that long ago, so he's taking some time away. So Matt and I are holding the fort.
Holding the fort is strong. I think opening the fort to invaders.
Yes. I really need him to be here just to make this easier and more smooth. But I kind of like the vibe.
I do too.
It's easy going. There's just the five of us here. Adam's with us and Eduardo and Blay. And we're just reading pizza and we're just hanging out.
So last week we did a collection of notable clips from our segments and intros was just you, me, and Conan.
Yeah.
This week we're doing some notable clips that kind of came to mind from so many wonderful moments this year of the celebrity interviews.
And I mean, yeah, we're starting off with a big one.
What the listener won't know is that we retook this part.
Yeah.
And in the first time we did it, you said banger. Okay. And since Conan wasn't here, I felt the need to point out your hard G. Yes.
And I responded by saying, you don't have to. You're right. We don't have to try to fill those... gigantic shoes, is what I'm saying.
And I think that would be jude of me to not do that.
Yeah, and then you made a joke about later on listening to a clip from Walton Jodgins, and that didn't make sense.
It does make sense.
How does it make sense? I said bang-ger, it would be gawkins. I'm pretending that there's no such thing as a hard G, that everything's a soft G. Okay, so I'm going to channel Conan and be like, it's good that you have to explain what your joke is. We're starting with a banger. So, you're French and you still got the hard G in there? I did. Banger. Banger. Banger. Banger. Banger.
Banger.
Yeah, that's pretty good. Okay.
Here's the clip.
Al Pacino.
Let's listen.
You know, it's interesting because you're grabbed by the theater. You're this kid, as I said, who you start reading Chekhov. You start reading the classics, and it grabs you. You start seeing some productions. You get into theater. You have so many go-nowhere jobs just to stay alive. I mean, you're delivering papers. You're building superintendent for a while, but not a good one, I don't think. Never, never.
The guy came out and started talking about me a few years back. Yeah. Saying he was a terrible super or something like that. And I thought... Why? Why would he say that? Who's a terrible super? I'm sure there's a lot around.
I mean, you know. No, I saw that. There's a really old man who was like, I remember him. He was a terrible super. And I'm like, okay, take his Oscar back. Fine actor, terrible super. Christopher Walken, bad mechanic. Robert De Niro, that's just an awful substitute teacher. You know, it's like, what the fuck? What are you talking about? So you come along, you're doing theater, and then this thing that people dream about happens, which is you get noticed. Francis Ford Coppola is going to make The Godfather, and he says, I want this guy, Al Pacino. And the studio says, fuck you. We want Robert Redford. We want someone who's been a success. We want someone who looks a certain way.
