Shout out to Bley for producing one of the best intros on the podcast!

[@aintnuthinbutathang1646]

Matt impersonating a weeping old Spanish lady in the background during Conan's dad jokes was like David Lynch energy somehow lol

[@gavinators11]

Bley always has been an accidental genius on discussions. This segment has just proven that factoid more and more....

He really does have a producer’s brain; I assume he had a lot of control over Clueless Gamer and those were legendary.

[@youtubered646videos7]

He's not in the podcast also for nothing he must have been instrumental in this move. I wonder who pitched the podcast idea to Conan! Who all convinced him?!

Finally fruit talk!, this is what we all have been waiting for 😂

[@willsonabus9978]

Bleys fruit topic just got better and better with each interjection. Proper rabbit hole of a convo piece. Top stuff

[@TheUberjammer]

Sona: Many fruit trees skip a season. Apples do quite frequently. Not usually a complete skip, but certainly one year will be far less productive than the previous year, and if the tree gets pruned incorrectly, or there's disease issues, you could potentially have zero fruit for a year. Also important to note is... is... sorry, my fez flew away and I forgot what I was going to write.

[@matthewhearn9910]

My avocado tree is like this. One year we'll have so many that we and everyone we know well enough to hand a bag to are eating guacamole with every meal for months, and the next we're buying our avocados at the store when we need some.

[@Ms_Farita]

The more Sona laughs, the harder he digs into his bits

[@28allymae]

this was the funniest opening by far for me 😂

[@wickedeye00]

100 yrs from now Conan would still be the most original. Such much creativity and passion in making all of us happy! Thank you so much sir, you've brightened even the darkest days for me and I'm sure you've heard that so many times over the years.

I think Conan should have a third podcast called "Conan O'Brien Needs an Employee" of just banters with his crew: Matt, Sona, David, Blay, and Jordan Schlansky!

[@InvictusRed1911]

I've never seen Sammy Davis Jr. Transform into Dennis Miller but Conan is a comedy genius so here we are 😂😂😂

[@kevgar57]

Conan’s revolving cast of characters around him, basically his staff, is such a gift. I’m glad they don’t overuse it too. That said, this had me laughing out loud even after rewatching it for the third time.

[@Glumyy]

Conan is wrong, ever since this podcast started, hell, even since I began watching his late night show, all I've pondered is if Conan has a fruit tree. Thank you for finally providing me with solace. This is honestly one of the best intros!

[@florianadolf2256]

Well, *that* - and what that fruit would actually be, most of all. Would it be something proper, like a nice apple tree? Or something more exotic, like a mirabelle or a prune plum tree? Or, let's just draw out the old stereotype and assume that he has a fine little, neatly cultivated potatoe patch in his garden - no tree, whatsoever. We still have no clear answer to that question, though. But one hell of an intro, that's for sure👌
