Hi, my name is Josh Brolin, and I feel so Don Cheadle about being one of Brian's friends. I don't even know what that means. What does it mean? Who knows? Badass. Horny. You feel horny? Nice.
I can tell that we are gonna be friends. Yes, I can tell that we are gonna be friends.
Hey there, welcome to Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend. And we have a wonderful podcast today, joined as always by Sona Movsesian and Matt Gourley, I believe. I'm not even sure myself. And Sona, this has got to be a big day for you. It is.
Because, and we rarely do this, we rarely talk about the guest, but this guest is one of the stars of a movie which has become, over time, the Citizen Kane of your generation. It defined a generation. Don't scream. I'm sorry. We're all in the same room. Jesus Christ. Blaze not here. I'm compensating. Yeah. When you say like the Citizen Kane, I don't know.
You don't even know what I'm talking about. Citizen Kane was a movie with Orson Welles. I know what you're talking about. OK. That is very insulting. I know. I don't think you know about things. I think he said it to insult you. Yeah. I know what Citizen Kane is. OK. OK. Yeah. But it's you know what? It's just such a beloved movie.
It surprised me. I'm just going to tell you the movie. It skipped me because I was a little too old. And when I say a little too old, way too old. Yeah. The movie came out, I believe, in 1985 or 86. And I am just five, I think, 85. And I'm just getting my career started out in L.A. and with my writing partner, Greg Daniels. And I remember the two of us. What's that? Name dropper. Yes. Yes.
Well, he's a big deal. I'm very happy for his success. And someday I'll have some, too. But the point is, Greg and I remembered this movie came out, The Goonies, which was a big deal. So we went to Westwood and we watched it. And it was like a movie for kids.
Yeah.
And Greg and I were sitting there and we're like, OK, well, I guess that's a fun movie for kids. I remember being very annoyed that all the kids talk over each other. I know. And I'm sorry. They also the kids call gold rich stuff. And kids know the word gold. They just do. Your criticisms of this movie are so tiny, teeny, tiny.
