About this episode

Comedian, writer, and director Stephen Merchant feels overqualified about being Conan O’Brien’s friend.


 

Stephen sits down with Conan to discuss his outrageous height, finding the right showrunner for the American version of The Office, getting to work alongside legends like David Bowie and Christopher Walken, and his newest series The Outlaws. Later, Conan wonders how to capitalize on his natural appeal to kids when he and his team Review the Reviewers.
