What are Jodie Foster's feelings about being Conan O'Brien's friend?
I'm Jodie Foster, and I feel ambivalent about being Conan's friend. Whoa! I feel ambivalent.
A major blow to the solar plexus.
You should be flattered, right? Because it's not just a yes or no. No, no, no.
I am not flattered. Let's be very clear. I am not flattered.
Fall is here, hear the yell, back to school, ring the bell, brand new shoes, walkin' loose, climb the fence, books and pens, I can tell that we are gonna be friends.
I can tell that we are going to be friends. Welcome to Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend. Here with my crew, my chums, Sona Movsesian.
Yeah, hi, Conan.
Conan O'Brien, who is doodling. That's why I've taken the reins.
It's just a mustache wondering where its master is.
But it says, where's Gil?
Yeah, that's your dad.
That's my dad. So it's my dad's mustache. Don't say it's just a random mustache.
Whatever. My dad's mustache. Not just a name that happened to come off my pen. Here we go. Well said.
Yep. Go, go, go, go, go.
Hey there. Welcome to Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend. I'm coming in. I've been away for quite a while now. I've been on an epic series of journeys across the world. I'm back now. It's so nice to be back and see the friendly faces of Sonam Ovsessi and Matt Gourley. How you guys doing? It's been a while. It's been like over a month. Yeah, it has been a long time. It's been five weeks since we taped a podcast. And I missed you guys. I really did. And everywhere I went, people were talking to me about the pod. Again, in different cities, I ran into people who were listening to it as I ran into them. That's cool. It's surreal for them. I mean, it's surreal for me, but I think it is upsetting to them.
Oh.
Because they're probably, it's a lot. Yeah. It's a lot to be walking through Central Park and you're listening to this podcast and then this giant George Kennedy head comes at you.
Oh.
gets in your face and says, you want a selfie? You want one? You want a selfie?
You don't even know that they're listening to you. You're just seeing people on earbuds and going up to them.
I asked a statue that was on horseback if it wanted a selfie. It's just funny because there'll be, if 10 people in a row want a selfie, you'll get into a certain rhythm. And then this happened in London because I had some stuff I had to do there. And 10 people in a row were like, can I have a selfie? Can I have a selfie? Can I have a selfie? And then this one woman said, oh, hey, I know you. And I said, do you want a selfie? And she said, no.
There's nothing I'd want less. I'd rather die.
How did Jodie Foster's childhood acting experience shape her career?
I'd rather be dead.
But anyway, it's very nice to be back and in the New York groove, even though we're in Los Angeles. Yeah.
Do you have fun? You good? Get sick?
No, I did not get... Happy with yourself? Did you get sick?
Like the choices you made? End up where you thought you'd be?
No, I did not get sick. I'm quite content and just happy to be here. Yesterday, because I'm doing the Oscars in March... We shot a bunch of promos for the Oscars. And there's a bunch where you do them for different countries. So I did one Telemundo. I did it in Spanish. You do some to different countries. And then there was one country. I can't remember what country it is. Norway or where it was. But the name of the station was... So tune in to the Oscars on March 15th and watch it live on... And then you give the name of the station. And if it's, you know, if it's on Telemundo or you give the different ones. But there was... I think it was some country. I cannot remember it. But I said, turn in to... And then it said on the copy, V, you know, dial.
So I said, and there's a dialect coach off camera. And he went, no, no, it's B stock. And he said, the V is just a, just a quick dial. And I said, and he went, no. So I tried it and I said, and he said, no, it's V. And I said, V. And he said, no, it's V. And he was getting irritated. And he said, you don't say the V, you just go V. You think it. You like think it. And I said, V. And he went, no, it's V. And so it was back and forth, me going V and him going V. And there's like 600 people around, standing around, tech people.
