Matt quoting an outtake featured in the behind-the-scenes documentary about Apocalypse Now is the most Matt Gourley thing ever and I am here for it.

In the book, Sona mentions Neve and Beckett told her that being with Conan has melted half of her brain, then when she asked about the other half, they told it had already melted before she met him. Funniest thing i read today...

I can't believe Sona has an assistant, but at the same time it makes perfect sense.

Sona proves in her book that she really is the _worst_ assistant in the world. So, for things to get done.... she needs an assistant.

[@TeacherDanPotato]

David is so genuinely positive. I loved the whole weed story!!

[@falloutgir012]

Every Team Coco fan should read Sona’s book! It gives you a delightful amount of inside info and tidbits on people you’ve seen on office remotes and some skits/remotes/special episodes! It’s genuinely hilarious! And my favorite part, the one I couldn’t stop laughing at, would be the one where she ate edibles and was high during dinner where a reporter was with them to do a cover story on Conan. 😂

[@apseudonym]

matt's “I swallowed a bug” is such an obscure apocalypse now documentary reference that it took me by surprise

[@jandreid1056]

David Hopping looks and sounds like if Alan Carr had an American cousin.

[@marktuan6704]

First time I saw him on a Conan thumbnail I was surprised to "see" he had ended up here but then I realized it wasn't him 😅

[@mannedi8665]

"We ever stole anything together i don't think". I was waiting for Conan to comment on that like oh wait but individually you did. Lol

[@CLYMA1.5CHAINZ]

Not surprised by Conan's carrot story, considering he loves chomping through packets of chewing gum

[@DarthD00bius]

Conan probably thinks he's copying Clark Gable, not Bugs Bunny.

[@Frank.E.Valley]

That "Apocalypse Now" quote about the grocery boy was spot on...because David was literally being a grocery boy, too.

[@AshChambers21]

I'm pretty David was my tour guide when I toured the WB lot back in 2016. We saw Beth Behrs (the Blonde chick from Two Broke Girls) getting into her car and he made a joke that it's "unlikely we will get to see a glimpse of her face". Sure enough, I don't think I've ever seen a girl that tall, get into a luxury coupe that small, that quick, and peel off like she was muhfkn Mario Andretti. Good times.

[@txmde8777]

Conan seems like he isn’t bothered or doesn’t judge people for their “extracurricular activities” (expect for jordan, lots of judging there lol)… But I def get the vibe from him that he’s not really into chasing a buzz from drugs or alcohol,.. Over the years on his show there are tons of times he “drinks” on camera with guests, but if u pay close attention he actually barely drinks any thing, best example off the top of my head is the Mexico episode when he takes shots with Diego Luna.. he might have drank a 1/4 of a shot despite going through the motions of taking a shot multiple times… The best example of Conan partaking but clearly not knowing what he’s doing is when he “smoked” with Seth rogan, I mean he almost lit the wrong side of the J lol and he def didn’t inhale when he hit it… Watch Andy hit the joint right after him to see what someone that smokes looks like lol:.. I think Conan gets his high from controlling a room and making people laugh and anything that might interfere with his ability to do that is a waste of time to him

[@jasminjelovac9416]

yea i think he fears addiction cause of his irish heritage

[@willpugh8865]

He smokes weed or eats edibles one of the two it would be hypocritical for him to judge

David is great, I first remember seeing him when he in a bit being about Conan's replacement. It's fun seeing him progress from cut-rate Conan O'Brien, to him on the podcast talking about Disneyland on the special quarantine episode w/ Andy Daly and the hijinks him & Sona get up to. It's like a character arc. I feel the same way with Sona. I think the earliest I saw her was during Conan's Google talk. It's nice to grow up with people and seeing them bail out of work because they have a book to promote

I can’t Imagine being so out of touch with reality as a “celebrity” that you think a 30 second interaction with fans is an actual burden… Conan is 10x more famous than any “pretty little liar” cast member and he’s been famous for about 150 years longer than any of them too, yet he still has the decency to not act like a brief interaction with fans is beneath him… We all have bad days, but if you’re fortunate enough to be a “celebrity” that has fans who spent their money for a chance to see you, be a decent human and take 30 seconds to acknowledge them and make their day…

This topic just KEEPS coming up and it infuriates me every time lol CONAN, YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO INHALE. That's why marijuana does nothing for you. I saw the way you "smoked" with Seth Rogan and you did not inhale. Suck, then take a deep breath in.

Agreed. And return Sona to where she belongs - in his office and away from our ears. I miss Andy's quips and their chemistry. I feel like lately he's compensating for a lack of a live audience by having Sona obnoxiously laugh at everything and it's ruining the listening experience.
