After 25 years at the Late Night desk, Conan realized that the only people at his holiday party are the men and women who work for him. Over the years and despite thousands of interviews, Conan has never made a real and lasting friendship with any of his celebrity guests. So, he started a podcast to do just that.

Sheng Wang. He’s got two specials on Netflix, the newest being “Purple”. Conan, you’d love him!!!!
