About this episode

King of podcasting Matt Gourley (Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend, Superego) stops by to talk with writers Mike Sweeney and Jessie Gaskell about the evolution of being a producer for Conan’s podcast to becoming a sidekick, being an early adopter to podcasting with his podcast Superego since 2006, his time voicing a motorized trash can at Disneyland, and getting black out drunk for the first time in his life on TV for an episode of Drunk History.
