Conan’s Approach To Ad Reads (Feat. Mike Birbiglia) | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend
I had a Sona question I'm I know that. I'm coming in with questions and that's. awkward love I'm holding up a little. note card I'm loving this so far this is. delightful my Sona question is with. Conan you go so hard on him what is too. far have you ever said something that's. too. mean and then it's like what like like. we got to cut that out it's too mean I. don't think we've I I have to say you. guys could tell me I don't think we've. ever cut out.
anything that you guys when you guys go. after me I don't think we've ever cut. out anything we've never cut out. anything when you don't act like you. don't come after us oh yeah there's no. limit There's No Limit my record is. clear it's all in the history books do. you know what I mean there's no it's. there's like it's like World War II. footage we've all seen it yes I go it's. like world there's no limit it's not. like World War II footage it is yeah. it's you've completely misunderstood.
World War II really and footage I. thought World War II was a lot of. passive aggressive bickering between. Stalin Hitler and Churchill my God Conan. how did you miss this you read history. wasn't it a feud between. podcasts well and now I have to go back. and look at these again back then it was. radio it was passive aggression between. radio hosts yeah Orson Wales was. involved yeah I don't know I don't know.
to answer your question well Sona I mean. Matt you would know because you I don't. think I have ever cut anything you've. said to him I think I've cut one or two. exchanges with you and me and not. because they were like uh bad it was. more like they just for whatever reason. took the air out or didn't land or. something like that right that would be. your fault it would have been if if. anything there have been moments where I. was like I should have gotten gone. harder on you there's more I should have. said the one I was listening to the. other day I admire this I I do ads in my. podcast I have to say what's in the ad I.
I don't know what the hell you guys are. doing I know like you doing an ad for. like Conan TV or something and at the. end of it Sona had made fun of it so. much I was like does this even. exist we did an add like no one wants to. watch that Conan you know what we did we. did an ad oh my God we did an ad the. other day Mike this is true we did an ad. the other day and it's you know I read. the sometimes I'm reading these cold and. we get.
they slide this piece of paper in front. of me like what's this one and I just. start going and I say like you know if. you want to monitor your your cats if. you want to monitor your your cat's. Health this device uses lasers and. ultralight sound to measure the quantity. quality and size of your cat's poops. basically and then gives you upto-date. analysis of what your cat's Health could. be in the future and then I went on a. long rant about the fall of Western. Civilization yeah fair enough I don't.
know on this show where the ads begin or. end no and I've always. thought well what has been advertised. you know I don't know what the call the. action is my my ads my ads are a dare to. advertise on conter B need a friend it's. like if you can handle this advertise I. think what's happening is rival. companies are paying for the other. company's ads so that you will do damage. to their business yes it's an enemy it's. an enemy move smart move it's like World. War II in.
it is just like in World War II he. learned it from World War II tactics. when Churchill paid for ads that were. pushing what Hitler wanted it's. propaganda it's operation mince meat. yeah it is so funny the idea of of. Toyota desperately plotting to have me. do a Ford. ad they know oh this will get them this. will really Ford it's like what. they wanted was thir seconds of of an.
advertisement and what they get is 5. minutes of. [Laughter]. nothing.
