Matt Gourley’s Sandwich Is Outselling Conan & Sona’s Sandwiches | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend
recently I was in New York City and I. was walking down the street and a. Gentleman came out of his establishment. The Establishment is EJ's Luncheonette. and this guy Jay came out Jay Elmore I. believe and uh said hi we chatted he. offered up that he would make sandwiches. that are named after the three of us. could use a regular podcast listener I. thought that was very nice so uh we came. up with some ideas for sandwiches. I guess they're selling them at EJ's.
Luncheonette. I'd like to know what's going on do you. know what do you have an update here. that's right I've been talking a little. bit with Jay who seems like a wonderful. person uh Sona you had a Euro uh you had. a corned beef kind of thing yeah and I. had a a matty melt on Hawaiian bread was. yeah what it was called yeah and then um. he gave me an update on this okay and. also he put the chilled Chum cocktail on. there remember that from uh this is a. good fan we have he really knows his.
stuff uh he said just wanted to thank. you for everything I hope you all enjoy. having your own sandwich it was an honor. and a pleasure to do them should we add. the cocktail blah blah blah blah and. then just a fun fact for you the Matty. melt almost doubled the amount sold of. Conan and Sona sandwich on the first day. hmm things have leveled out since with. Conan sandwich and sona's Gyro thanks. again for everything truly super cool of. you guys to do you've made my day slash. week slash month slash year that's very. sweet uh nice wait a minute first of all. what he's saying is that initially your.
sandwich took off and ours did not. I mean ours probably did fine but yours. went through the roof yeah yours again. what's in it it's Hawaiian bread and. then it's a Patty Mill essentially yeah. okay. uh and mine was I believe your classic. corned beef Russian dressing but I think. it's on a bulky roll possibly I don't. know. um I mean that's a great sandwich and. then yours mine was a Euro without. tomatoes what's a Euro again a euro is.
uh it's in a it's a It's Greek and it's. a pita sandwich with uh with like donut. lamb donut and uh lettuce and Tzatziki. right and onions uh so your sandwich was. the initially the clear winner but I'm. what I find Curious is that then your. sandwich was fast out of the gate but. now it feels like it's. the Mania for it has died down no I. wouldn't say that I would say that. people wanted to give the other ones a. shot and then probably we're gonna see a.
huge boost in the Maddie melt again as. they realized that was a mistake and. they're gonna go back to their true love. or they tried it and it sucked but why. would they try it so much well initially. it's not the same people buying it over. and over it's not it's not I'm out there. buying no first of all we all know that. you hired people Confederates agents to. go in there and purchase your sandwich. to uh to game the system. I think there's a lot of people who. aren't familiar with Hawaiian bread they.
thought it was exotic they probably. thought it was a way to win a free trip. to Hawaii and so uh that that probably. skewed things a little bit then they. came to their senses and said man corned. beef Russian dressing That's a classic. oh there's no human that tastes Hawaiian. bread that will ever go back it's that. good hey Sona think of all the amazing. things in life that are expressions of. just you yeah I mean like the chocolate. that you had on your face when you came. in because you just ate that what was it. you were eating I was eating a giant. cookie giant cookie yeah and that's so. Sona okay or that song you stream over.
and over again it's just so you what's. that song For You Twinkle Twinkle Little. Star yeah but it's for my boys and I. know still it's nice okay or you know. that podcast that comedy podcast you. just gotta listen to yeah Conan O'Brien. needs a friend exactly is that what you. listen to in your spare time yeah I love. it everything that makes you you makes. all the difference State Farm believes. Insurance should work the same way your. plan your coverage selections could be. personalized by you and only you that's.

bread and didn't like it they don't. exist isn't Hawaiian bread small yeah I. think you can get it bigger can you yeah. normally they come with those little. slider buns yeah yeah so it's like a. slider so maybe you were selling so many. because people yeah more thank you in. order to no look at the size appreciate. themselves yes they needed seven of your. sandwiches to equal one of mine and. that's why yours sold more per sandwich. there's a big one one piece let me see a. Hawaiian bread stop your. dickery also who wants a big Hawaiian I.
do oh my God everybody do everyone. everyone wait a minute wait a minute. Sona of the three sandwiches only one. has an American flag sticking out of it. that's right we covered it and it's. gorley's that's why you're outselling it. because we're a patriotic people. Americans you cheated no because when. you idea to put that in remember the 48. Stars I know but I up. I'm admitting that I this Alters the.
experiment because the fact that your. sandwich is flying an American flag and. you're. Giro. it's a Euro I mean okay you could. pronounce it gyro like yeah gyro there. you go it's also Hawaiian bread yeah. okay. um and it is according to beef what uh. it is a corned beef uh anyway my this is.
what's happening your sandwich looks. like it's pro-american our sandwiches. are neutral but if you're buying. something at EJ's luncheonette you. assume. that our sandwiches are anti-American. because if well maybe they are if if one. person on the streets flying the. American flag yeah and the other two. houses on either side conspicuously are. not that means they're communist maybe. or yeah or they're anarchists or. anarchists or socialists but there's a. market for those people and our. sandwiches are for those people no don't.
say that you hate America. no that's absolutely right no we've got. it right now you're a Nazi a Nazi no I. think that I I that's not is that even. Hawaiian bread yes I don't think it is. no it's regular that's regular bread. wearing a little Hawaiian shirt no. that's what it is here's what I think we. should do these are classic quips I'm. giving by the way amazing I want to. reach out Aaron we got to make this. happen we need to Gold belly these three.
sandwiches to us which is a service. where you can fly food across the. country I think like it's in a little. cooler like you would put a heart and a. trans wow what a responsible carbon. footprint we're leaving Sir with like. three sandwiches named after ourselves. flown in a jumbo jet each with a first. class seat I'm mean I don't want to say. this but we could just buy this stuff. here and no no no no no no. like a true communist you guys.
want to get a whole cooler scent here of. sandwiches. we're in Show Business and people in. Show Business have I want a leg of lamb. made up that was slaughtered on Staten. Island flown to me immediately that's. the way people behave it's just easier. for all of you guys to fly to New York. and try you know what no Eduardo has a. point yeah. Jay Jay can come here.
yeah I want to update on what what the. South the sandwich selling rankings are. like what's the most current tally yeah. and who's winning and if you're in New. York and you don't buy this Euro you. hate Greek people. but you're an anarchist you're a. socialist who hates Greek people sure. and if you don't buy the patty melt you. you get kicked out of the country. frankly yeah okay so everyone's gonna. buy this that email. well listen.
yeah. by the way honor working with both of. you. truly greatest talents I've ever been. associated with all right well there. you've heard it uh go to EJ's. luncheonette if you want to try our. sandwiches and I'm telling you corned. beef Russian dressing. um why are we buying these 10 why isn't. he sending them to us no we want it we. want people to go to EJ's and buy these. sandwiches he's talking about having a. service send them to us like Jay send us.
these sandwiches. [Music]. [Laughter]. [Music]. all right well anyway uh we'll get these.
sandwiches somehow we'll figure it out. and we'll do it and I think a way that's. uh responsible yeah yeah irresponsible. that's important all right we'll update. you God bless and good night.
