Hard disagree. CONAF isn't meant to be an in-depth interview, it's supposed to be him bantering with his guest. If this one was more one-sided, it might have been because Julia was somewhat reserved and Conan had to talk more. I still thought it was a good episode.

Not sure why I enjoy Conan dunking on Gourley so much, maybe because I know Matt can totally take it.

Please note: I will be voting for this as all top 10 episodes of 2019.

I read your post and then listened to the episode and have two words for you: Overreact much? Nicole's comments don't come anywhere near misandry, gender/ethnicity disparaging, or hate-filled. As a fellow white male, you need to get over yourself, bro.

Agreed. More Conan and Gourley improv segments, please.

And now it's a time for a breakdown of the early contenders for the best of 2019!

I fear our dear boy Patton is more likely to be cast as Woozy Winks than Plas himself.

Tommy Middle-D + Hooray = "Best Of"-worthy ep

Where's the Harry Potter podcast, bro?

I think Scott and Scott need to do a Radiohead podcast next.

I'd like to add that--as someone who's seen Citizen Kane at least 10 times--I really appreciated Amy's and Paul's comments about the film. I never caught the fire motif and hadn't really appreciated the movie's use of sound until now. I'm excited for future podcasts, especially for the movies I've seen.

Which AFI list are Paul and Amy using--the original or the 10th anniversary edition from 2007? And why didn't AFI make a 20th anniversary edition? EDIT: Just listened to the preview--it's the 2007 list. But my second question remains--where's the 2017 edition? And what films from 2006 to 2015 got shortchanged by the lack of a 20th anniversary addition?

So many classic gems in this one... I'd like to see a "Wiki P.D." procedural show. Definitely a best-of candidate.

I was on the fence about this "Jon Hamm" character until he said, "I beg your pardon, I love a Charleston Chew." P.S. I will be voting for this one at year end. I doubt anyone else cares, but this is a note to myself. Zack Reino getting Donny Drapes and PFT to talk about Pokemon for 30 minutes puts it over the top.

I haven't even gotten to the other guests yet and this is already a very moving, top-notch C+ episode. Great job, Stephanie and Scott!

I wholeheartedly agree with Phil about torture and gore in movies.

Once he arrives, NPH is ready to dish dirt from the get-go. Love it!

Rush sucks.

Yep, definitely an Off Book All-Star! Hope they bring her back for "special" multi-guest episodes (like holiday and anniversary shows).

I'm calling it now--greatest ep ever. I'm not even going to listen to this episode; that's how confident I am in its greatness. P.S. I listened to the episode.

"You have no idea" was a reference to Jeremy Irons' famous line in Reversal of Fortune. Weird, considering that most children won't have seen this 1990 R-rated movie about the von Bulow case.

"That's not what's happening right now, and you're crazy to think that."

Great episode, but I was hoping for a bit more closure with this one. Will they finish the 50 jobs? Will Jess and Gene get together? Will Jon run out of inanimate objects to fuck? I think we need one or two more episodes of Mopes.

I've been on board since Scott changed the name from Comedy Death Ray. CBB is the only thing that makes my Monday mornings bearable, and it's introduced me to countless amazing comedians--Lapkus, Gabrus, St. Clair & Parham, Mantzoukas, both Dalys, Adomian, Holland, Rust, Campbell, McKenna, and many more and deepened my appreciation for known quantities like Tompkins, Schwartz, and Kroll. Best podcast ever. C+.

Loved Dicker Troy. Johnny Pemberton is workin' today!
