Aaron Bleyaert Shows Off His New Sword | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

[@anthonygordon9483]

If conan wanted to. he could turn his entire podcast into the conan show. I wont be surprise to see cast members or anyone in general doing bits during the show. Theyve been doing improv bits and killing it. Just imagine if he brings back scripted bits during the podcast.

The final part (starting at 13:30) is 5 straight minutes of gold from Conan.

[@Lurdiak]

Paul Toombes: Man is born to live! He creates life, he welcomes life, he cherishes life! He creates NEW life! But deep in our souls, there lurks an instinct that welcomes death... it makes it easier when it comes. It isn't very strong, this death instinct... it's only needed once. That's what we saw in the darkness. That is the sleeping phantom that we roused and clothed in black... a phantom FEEDING on death, CREATING death, EXULTING in DEATH!

[@John_C_J]

The Abyss

[@Rattenhoofd]

I believe "Call of the Void" is a specific type of intrusive thought where you think about jumping off a high place. Other intrusive thoughts are about things like kicking someone down a staircase or giving wedgies to the entire cast of Wicked.
