The level of how good a boss Conan is has always amazed me. Even though there are ppl under him who sound fireable, he doesn’t do so but instead turns them into comedic gold. This way everyone, including his show, miraculously benefits.

[@brianmorton9419]

Someone pointed out in a comment that it would be very hard for Conan to fire Sona. It would almost have to be publicly addressed, and Conan couldn’t just say “well she wasn’t doing her job” because everyone would get mad and go “well yeah, she’s Sona!” She’s have to key his car or something specific

[@kit2770]

Conan, we know it's you.

[@usernaames]

@@brianmorton9419 I mean now yeah, but he could have fired her for years with zero consequences. I get the feeling that Conan just doesn't care though, he's set for life and can afford to employ people who do nothing as long as they're enjoyable to be around.

I feel like sometimes gourley's comments ("what r u in preschool??") caught conan off guard and it's so fun to watch haha

[@pihla01]

So happy David got to (accidentally) be Sona's replacement on the podcast also 'cause he's doing a great job and the 3 of them have nice chemistry together.

[@carolz5090]

They do! It’s impossible to replace Sona, we (the avid Conan podcast fans) love her SO much, but David is doing really well. It’s hard to follow in the footsteps of greatness, but they look like they’re finding their rhythm.

[@Harpoquondrax]

Sona had her babies! Yay! Congrats to her!

[@lymandecoconut4832]

I still think it would have been funny if Sona named her sons after Conan's two siblings that were born directly after him, even if those were his sisters, just to poke fun at his fear of being replaced on her priority list.

[@fadedgabe791]

That is extremely complicated

Isn't David the guy who Conan trained to be his replacement some years ago?

Jordan is busy doing various tasks & preparing his body in various ways. He's so good at his job so obviously Conan doesn't know what Jordan does!!!!!

I'm just glad to know Jordan is still working for Conan and will probably make the move to HBO as well.

Lol apples, Turkey and tea...I don't eat those things Sona (somewhere watching): lol that was my Monday shopping list

Ironically I’m watching this while working, so being paid to watch a video of a podcast about watching TV while working and getting paid

[@DannyKlimt]

3:53 14 seasons are about 200 hours. That's 8.5 days nonstop 😂

[@benzaiten933]

I'm also surprised that show is still ongoing. I swear I thought it ended like 6 years ago.

[@pacmanshooter247]

I mentally zoomed out while listening to this and suddenly snapped back when Conan basically yelled out of my open window 'DICKCHOPPING'. Must've been great for the neighbors XDD

[@NyleLevi]

Don't throw Sona under the bus like that lol

[@thesecondislander]

I feel like Conan just likes his employees way too much to fire any of them even if they were lazy

[@denniswong4248]

i mean, that's just what an assistant is. prepare stuff for their boss, and is free until their boss needs something.

[@bernlin2000]

I love that David has no qualms about throwing a pregnant woman under the bus XD

[@soniapitter6427]

He spilled all the tea🤦🏽‍♀️

Calling it now: Sona is going to get busted for embezzlement some day.

Jordan got caught buying the espresso machine, and what he got is just public shaming on TV lol.

Conan's glasses don't make him look remotely like Harry Carey OR Charles Nelson Reilly, so if anyone was even thinking about saying they did, just stop it, stop right there, don't even type it, because it's not true.

Whole Foods is not really wholesome for either customers but especially employees. You may be relieved to know it says it stopped using prison labor in 2016. Before that, I hope you didn't eat things like their goat cheese or tilapia. It is now owned by Amazon, so you can make Bezos happy if you give him more money.
