Welcome to the final installment of the. 2025. Chill Chums with Conan and the Goooo. Gang. [laughter]. >> I'm talking summer s'mores, >> weekend chores. Uh, we had a great time. I mean, looking back on everything that. happened, what a paniply of fun, >> don't you think? >> Wow. Okay. I mean, uh, from the moment I. started to get very negative about the.
conduits, >> oh my god, >> that really I mean, >> that was a hell of a way to kick it off. >> Yeah. [laughter]. >> I was shocked by the amount of. electrical wiring uh that I saw on the. back of our, by the way, very small. yard. >> Yeah, we should talk about it more. >> Well, [laughter] can I say something? I. was envisioning it being much bigger. I. thought cuz I I maybe this goes back to. my Irish roots, but I thought it's going. to be like ah it's the old. [gasps and laughter] it's the old. estate. And so imagine my surprise.
when uh I'm led back to um postage. stamp. >> No, >> it's it's tiny back there. >> It's it's quaint. >> Yeah, it's a little small little space. >> But do you feel different about that. conduit now that you see that it's on. the other side of that wall and it's. powering all of this majesty? >> Yeah. It just makes me wonder why more. amazing stuff isn't happening in here. because it [laughter] looks like it. looks like a nuclear reactor. I mean, the amount of conduit back there, it. looks like something incredible is. happening in here and it's just three.
schlubs talking. [laughter]. I mean, I'm sorry, but you know what I. mean. So, >> there's no 3D adventure here where we're. like floating. Go ahead. >> So, we can tame Sona's voice. >> Exactly. Yes. MYO. >> WELL, THERE you go. >> What the [laughter]. Jesus. >> Ah. >> Uh, more. We need more conduit. [laughter]. Um, there was some real. >> had some good times. >> There was some real high highlights. I. mean, first of all, Dr. Aoyo showing up.
>> Oh, man. >> And, you know, you always hope for a. guest star, someone big. And I don't I. can't imagine, first of all, I don't. know how we got him. >> to get Dr. Aoyo. >> I think it's easy to get him. We're just. lucky to have him. >> Yeah, exactly. >> Wow. God, it's always better. such a. he's a he's great. He's great. He's such. a terrible doctor. >> Um [laughter] and we learned that he's. not actually a doctor. It's just his. first name is doctor. [laughter]. >> Yeah. Dr. Ooya.
>> There's [laughter]. um yeah, he's uh he he's fantastic and. he says a lot about what's happened in. the medical profession the last couple. of years. >> It was great having him. Uh your. cocktail was fantastic. Yeah, >> I have to say you've outdone yourself. And to watch you craft these cocktails, I mean it is like watching a mad. scientist at work on his uh greatest. formula. >> Yeah. How long ago did you start. learning that you could make a cocktail?
>> Not too long ago, I think when uh CO hit. and I was depressed, >> you know. So, [laughter]. >> uh you know what helps depression? Alcohol. Yeah, we've all learned that. [laughter]. >> Are you already thinking about what the. cocktail will be next year? No, >> I bet you've had thoughts already. I. could You seem like the kind of guy. that'd be like, "Next year a little more. negrroni." [laughter]. >> The con Negroni. >> Oh, well, got it. Right. [laughter]. >> Coney Negroni. >> Yeah. Writing it on a piece of paper. that will soon be thrown away. >> That's true. Uh, no. Uh, like you, I've.
been kind of scaling back my drinking, so I I haven't thought about it. In. fact, I planned this one the day before. and I had to scramble to do it and I had. two different versions and I was tasting. them and I truly got drunk the day. before and I couldn't tell if what I had. made is good or not cuz it tasted good. cuz I was drunk. >> It was good. Yeah, >> I can tell you it was good. >> But you were drunk, too. >> I was. Yes, I was. [laughter] I got. drunk pretty quickly on this one. >> Um, >> chug chugy chug chug. >> Okay, let's talk cornhole. I mean, >> no, let's not talk cornhole. I'd rather.
talk about conduit cornhole. Yeah. >> Well, Oh, no. You got really mad. Uh, why why are you so competitive? >> You want to know? First of all, I am. naturally competitive. I'm fine losing. I hate losing to you. I think it's Yes, I do. I hate losing to you. You get. smug. >> You will bring it up like in three. years. You'll bring like you'll bring. >> I forgotten I even won until I brought. it up. >> because I can see it on your face. You. can't see anything. >> Yes, I can. >> I have no knowledge of who won that game. at this moment. I forgot.
>> Oh, okay. Then Sona won. >> You know what? Then I'm happy for you. >> No, don't do that. Don't do that. >> If you won, I'm very happy for you. I. don't remember. I honestly don't. remember who won. These things aren't. important to me. >> You know exactly what to do to like. annoy me. You know exactly what to do. You I I don't want to talk about that. game. >> If you told me I won, then I'm happy. that. >> have a taste of his own medicine. Be be. nonchalant about it. Harness your chill. >> I'm angry. [laughter] I can't. I'm so. angry. >> Okay. That's what he wants you to do.
Okay. But what did you go home and. relate your lost attack? >> Of course I did. >> And what did you tell him? >> I said uh I said I said you cheated. [laughter]. >> What? >> You lied. I lied. >> You cheated. You put a magnet in the. bag. Psychological warfare. >> You did. I think that what really was. upsetting to me was that I started off. very strong. I know what happened. I. shifted the side I was throwing from. I. think about it all the time since it. happened. >> You really thought about this? >> I have. I I started throwing from where.
you were throwing and then I shifted to. the other side and that was my end. >> Your mistake was you were throwing. I. was tossing. Tossing is the better way. to go. >> Oh my god. >> You know what I think? >> I think what made my win impressive. It's coming back to me now. And what a. victory it was. >> What's what made it so impressive. >> was and you will back me up on this. >> I will not. Whatever it is. >> Okay. I called it. >> I called it in great Eduardo. you were a. fan of this because. >> I announced when I was deep deep in the. hole, way behind, I said,
>> "Here's what's going to happen. I'm. going to get way behind, but then I'm. going to come surging uh back and I'm. going to win at the last minute." Which. is exactly what happened. And it reminds. me. >> of a tale that from baseball that might. be one of baseball's greatest moments. >> Babe Ruth, >> nope. >> Called a shot. You know the old famous. called shot. Not the same. Babe Ruth. pointed with his bat to center field and. then proceeded to hit a home run there. And there's no photograph of it, but. there's paintings of it, sketches of it. Uh, people have memorialized this as one.
of the greatest moments in American. sports history. I I think I did what. Babe Ruth did. I called my shot. It was. bean bag. It was cornhole. Maybe not as. grand. >> How. you know what picks or it didn't happen? If it if it did happen, someone should. have taken a [laughter] picture. Shut the up. I'm just trying to. help you so you don't dig too deep. >> I'm talking about the Babe Ruth moment. >> The Babe Ruth moment. It's been like. memorialized in paintings conveniently. There's no uh photo of it.
>> But we have video of me destroying you. >> It's not destroying. You didn't destroy. me. I think I think the thing is I lost. focus. >> Hell, you're trying to be a hype man. You didn't. [laughter]. >> You didn't. >> I lost focus. I really do hate losing. >> focus. Yeah, that's how people lose in. sports. That's called losing back where. we were. >> This is the thing though. You you act. you you. >> I could have won, but I lost focus. You. >> Where's my lost focus medal?
>> You know what diminishes your victory is. your sportsmanship. >> Yeah, >> it's non-existent. >> You act like you don't care, but you. really want to win. >> Yes, of course I do. >> Okay. All right. And also I think the. listener, the fan, >> uh, when I'm putting on a show with. myio, [laughter]. >> they they want to see me pull it out. Do, you know, they they want to. disagree. No, >> I think I think at least Sona owns her. desire to win and this affectation of. you saying like, I could take it or.
leave it. I'm just coasting above it. all, above the freight. It's it's I'm. not buying it. I'm not buying it either. because I know I know you and I know how. how like happy you were that you won and. it's just upsets me that I brought you a. level of. >> happiness. A different person after. [laughter] you won. >> I truly even after the recording you. were like talking to the trash cans at. one point. [laughter]. >> Did you see that? Did you see that? >> I um I have so much else in my life. I. have my friendship with Timothy Olant. >> Okay. >> I have um you know we we're pals. I have.
my imaginary friendship with Timothy. Olivet. [laughter]. >> Um, you know, I have my accomplishments. Uh, and so I didn't need, that's the. great thing is I didn't need that. cornhole win, but when it happened, I I felt like I had risen to another. level. [laughter]. You know, >> I hate this. >> We need a rematch. >> Yes. I'm down for a rematch. >> Yeah. The phrase sore winner comes to. mind. >> Yeah. but also very sore loser. And I.
think that that's what I'm saying is I'm. I'm down for a rematch and I'm gonna I'm. gonna train. >> Yes. Train. >> I'm gonna rocky it up. You're my Apollo. Creed. >> You're Drago. >> Ivan Drago. >> Ivan Drago. You're that guy. I'm the. good guy. You're the bad guy. You're the. bad guy. >> Yeah. >> You're the Soviet. I'mma you up. >> Yeah. There you go. There you go. And. I'm your Mickey rock. [laughter]. I think in a in a world where Putin is.
uh in charge in Russia, maybe there's a. yearning for the old good old days of. Drago. [laughter]. >> Maybe Drago villain. >> Yeah, Drago is now the good guy because. they're like, you know, [laughter]. >> oh my god, >> Drago you could deal with. Do you know. what I mean? There's not one scene where. Drago invades the Ukraine, >> you know, and tries to take territory. that isn't his. We have to do this and. and there's a training montage where you. have all the technology and all the. systems. >> My wrist is being injected with various.
chemicals. [laughter]. >> Yeah. And these Russian scientists are. monitoring. >> We have actual dried beans in a sack and. you're just flexing with it in a meat. locker. >> Hey, can I go [clears throat] off on a. tangent here for a second? He said. knowing he could. [laughter]. >> Why is it This always amazed me that if. you watch all the Rocky movies as I have. >> Yes. in the arc, unlike you the 15th. Rocky film, he loses all his money, okay? And his only choice is to be the. greeter in a small Italian restaurant in.
the old neighborhood. He lives in the. apartment that he's in in the first. movie. And there's no acknowledgement. ever that he is the greatest sports. figure. >> He could be a convention signing. I. mean, he could without even leaving his. house. If he just answered his phone, he'd get paid 100 because he. single-handedly brought down the the. Berlin Wall, [laughter] you know, he. he's won he's had come from behind. victories. He's the most celebrated in.
in that universe. He's the most. celebrated figure. >> Yeah. >> He's done the most incredible things. Um and then uh you Oh, man. You know, it. would be like saying if Well, geez, did. you hear what happened? No. Michael. Jordan, I guess he had a crooked. business manager and all the money's. gone. Where is he now? He's at a Dave. and Busters. [laughter]. He's over by the bin of balls and he's. >> of balls, >> you know. Yeah. And he's telling the. kids like, "Take it easy. You can't jump.
in till that one comes out." [laughter]. >> Yeah. I guess that makes sense. No. No. Michael Jordan signs one sneaker. [laughter]. for, you know, the ghost of Steve Jobs. and gets $150 million a pop. [laughter]. So, am I wrong? I'm sorry. I'm taking. away from some of the magic of what was. a wonderful time. I'm shifting the focus. to a new one, which is. >> I don't understand why Rocky's working. in that restaurant. >> Do you remember he was also living with. a robot in one of the movies? >> Yes. Remember that Bey?
>> No, that's Twiggy. >> Okay. [laughter]. >> Is that from Buck Rogers? Yes. >> Voice by. >> Oh, Mel Blanc. >> There you go. It's just Mel Blanc. It's. not Burb Blanc. >> I'm so. >> You went Mel Blanc. [laughter]. >> MY GOD. >> WHAT? WHAT PES WELL? >> DO YOU REMEMBER ALSO IN THE SUMMER. sports pair you got about the trivia? >> WHAT PAIRS [laughter] WELL? >> WHAT PAIRS WELL WITH THE FISH? I would. try the mill blonde. [laughter]. >> Who's the voice of Bugs Bunny? >> Oh my god. Oh my god.
>> You're such a [laughter] twit. >> Hey, look. I'm Dana from Star Trek. [laughter]. >> Anyway, >> if you think I'm a monster in this final. episode, that's what these chill chums. do to me. They wind me up. >> It's our fault. >> Yeah, it's our fault. >> And this is what's going to be happening. next year. This is the tip of the. iceberg of the new Conan cuz the Conan. that comes to the next Chill Chumps is. going to be an absolute monster.
>> Are we going to just do like Olympic. games? all these different games like. Battle of the Network Stars. >> Yes. Yes. Well, I'll run a race against. Gabe Kaplan. [laughter]. >> But now, but now, >> excuse me, it's Gabe Kaplan. >> Yeah, Gabe Kaplan. I'll have a Gabe. Kaplan and I'll have. >> Pardon me. Is that G? Do you have any. Gabe Kaplan? >> Do you have any uh Mel Blanc by the. Glass? >> Of course. >> But of course, we do here at Cafe. Mispronounced. >> Uh, you know, can I say something? >> You of course you know you can. Way back. in the first episode of this series, uh,
Blle, you teased something that we also. did the year before, and I think it's. important that we cover this. You got a. new Medieval Renaissance weapon. >> Yeah. You never brought that out. What. happened? Did you bring it to the set. and then never use it? >> I felt like there was a lot of tension. between you and Sona, and we didn't need. any more like any actual weapons on set. >> Did you just forget though? I mean, that's unusual for you to bring a dorky. weapon and not show it. [laughter]. >> Christ, man. >> Oh my god. I can't wait for the war. crimes. It's a trial where we all. present our evidence. >> I just love that.
>> Who drives home? [laughter]. >> Look at who drives home at the end of. the night and looks in the backseat of. their car and sees a broad AXE AND GOES, "DARN IT. [laughter]. I FORGOT TO WIELD IT. WHY AM I CATCHING straight just shooting. [laughter]. at any point? HE'S JUST GOING TO. >> YOU didn't weird. >> You You [laughter]. said you were going to bring one of your. weapons and you brought it but never. [laughter] brought it out. >> Yeah. Well, there's a lot going on. >> What was that like when you got home and.
you're unpacking stuff? >> Did you apologize? >> And you and you have like [laughter] a. you have your cooler and you move it and. there it is. >> I That is kind of what happened. I was. like. >> scythe from from from Sword of Gildar. >> [laughter]. >> I was unpacking my car. Yes. And I was. like, "Oh, that's right." Like I'm Yeah. This year. >> So, what was it? >> Uh, well, I have it here this year. I. [laughter] did. >> You just have it? >> WELL, I LEFT IT AT THE OFFICE because. just in case we need it. >> So, let's see it. What is it? >> Well, so this year, last year I got a. big sword. >> It was like, you know, a 4 foot and I. wanted something smaller cuz I didn't.
really use it at all in this past year. cuz it was so big. It's. >> You didn't use the. [clears throat and laughter] fantasy. sword as much as you thought you would. >> WHY DID YOU THINK YOU WOULD USE IT? WHY. would you use it though? I it's two-handed. It's, you know, it's. hard. It's [laughter] whole thing to get. out. It's like very big. So, I didn't. use it as much as I should. What a sad. [laughter] to-do list. >> To do milk orange wields magical sword. [laughter]. >> Wield fake magical sword. >> I'm sad you didn't get your bucket list. checked off. >> Anyway. Anyway, so I wanted something.
kind of smaller and more useful. So, I. got a uh I got this axe. >> OH MY GOD. >> YEAH. IT'S really sharp, so be careful. of it. >> It looks like an Irish musical. instrument. >> Yeah, it's a big. >> look like a Guinness heart. >> It's a big But yeah, it's. >> Yeah. What? Now tell me what this is. >> Oh, it's a big I don't really know. It's. a just a really sharp. >> Where did you get it? >> I got the Renaissance fair. I went to. the. >> So, you went to a Renaissance fair. >> I dressed up and went costume you were. wearing. >> I did. Yeah, I did. And And uh and this. year I learned I don't even know why am.
I. >> And this time I'm telling you this. I. brought an empty holster because I last. year I had to carry around the sword. It. was really awkward. >> So you brought a holster for a sword you. thought you might buy. >> That's right. So I wor I hate that. I. [laughter] hate that when you have a. holster. >> Yeah. So I had an empty holster. So and. this fits perfect. >> I think. >> Yeah. Well, no, I had a holster cuz I. was like, "Oh, I'm going to I don't want. to buy another big sword. I want to buy. something smaller like a dagger." But. then I saw this baby and I was like, "Oh, this thing is incredible.". >> Yeah. And I was, you know, also I w I. will say I will say I will say uh.
>> no one's interrupting you. [laughter]. >> You're just you're you're pausing. because you realize where you're going. is sad. >> Yes, [laughter] it is kind of sad. >> Well, I WILL SAY I I WILL someone please. let me finish. We're letting you finish. I don't want to say it. >> Well, uh uh I could I was thinking after. I bought I could use that to cut a. pizza. >> WHAT? [laughter] WHY? WELL, YOU KNOW, WELL, I'M JUST SAYING CUZ, you know, you. know, a pizza cutter. [laughter]. >> It doesn't have a lot of practical. applications. And I was just saying I.
didn't really use my sword last year and. so I was like, well, I could I'll be. able to. >> That would be pretty badass. If you had. a dinner party, you brought a pizza and. you just went, >> "Yeah, thank you." There we go. Look at. that. >> I don't know. Badass is the word. >> I am Zygar. I shall turn this pie into. six slices. >> You're making my case for me. So, um, yeah. So, I got You finally got to show. it. That's great. >> Thanks. Thank Thank you for letting me. uh show it off. >> Well, I didn't let you. I didn't know. you had it in the room. [laughter]. >> Thought we were just going to talk about.
it, but of course you have it. Uh where. do you keep all this in your house? It's not I imagine it's a not a huge. apartment. >> It's not actually. Do you want to know. the the truth? It's. >> Well, I asked you, so I'm respecting the. truth. >> I have This is Oh, man. This is so. sad. And well, I think it's cool. I have. a weapon corner that I just lean. everything up against. >> You own it. Go for it. Don't apologize. >> Okay. Yes. I have a weapon corner. You. should apologize. [laughter]. >> I have a couple I have a couple swords. I got this. I got a flamethrower. I got. >> Do you really have a flamethrower? >> I do. Yeah. You're an.
Why do you have What kind of. >> One of my friends gave it to me. We had. a thing where we gave each other. weapons. And then I have one of the I. have spiked balls and chain. >> I got the Ma No, a mace I think is like. a club. I think that's a like a morning. star or something. But uh but then and. then I also have a. >> We're losing listeners right [laughter]. now. >> Knife. uh from I think it's from Cobra. or from another movie. It's like it's. like a big crazy wavy. >> That's the Cobra knife that the villain. has. >> Yeah. Wavy knife and then it's got a. spiked handle. Yeah. So, I got I got all.
that stuff. It's just kind of just a. corner. >> throwback when uh Greg Daniels and I. were writing together on our first uh TV. show, not necessarily the news. We went. to our offices. We were working there. for like three days at Sunset Gower. Studios. This is 1985. when this package arrived uh that they. sent back to our office. And um we used. to get like weird promotional things and. I guess for some reason because we were.
a TV show, we got a promotional package. They thought maybe we would mention it. Uh and here I am mentioning it 70 years. later. It worked. It worked. And it was. a promotional package [laughter] from. from Cobra, the movie Cobra. Oh my god. and and um it was all these pictures and. like a couple of memorabilia little. thingies from the movie Cobra. We were. just looking at it and it was like this. is going to be Sylvester Stallone's next. franchise. He plays what's his name? >> Marian Cobreetti. >> Marian Cobrey. You're like his name, you.
know, you have to you have to [laughter]. justify this is a sting operation. >> He cuts pizza with scissors. >> Yeah. But no. And it was. >> and then uh Greg and I went and we. decided we got to go see Cobra. >> Yeah. And I don't know if you remember, but it's [laughter]. >> I know. Do you? >> He was a producer on it. He was three. years old. Do you know the story? >> But you know what's crazy? The. >> It's Cobra against a cult. >> And it's people from all walks of life. who meet. >> business people. >> Yeah. Business people and bakers and and.
people that sell orthotics all meet in a. basement and clang weapons together. >> In spotlights, chains and. >> Yeah. Do you know the story of that is. that um. >> Sylvester Stallone was originally going. to do Beverly Hills Cop. >> and he retoled it so much that they. eventually went, "No, you can't you. can't do this anymore." They gave it to. Eddie Murphy and he took his version and. that's what Cobra is. >> Oh, >> yeah. And that's Matt's movie corner. I. have more fun facts. And if you could. just open up a corner of your apartment.
for me. >> Yeah, dude. I but anyway that was my. when you mentioned Cobra I thought wait. a minute I have a visceral memory of. opening a box. >> in it. >> Oh a lot of photographs. >> from the set and some a press packet of. who Marian Cobbetti was and what his you. know what his character is. And then I. there might have been like a plastic. knife in there or something. I don't. know. But I remember Greg and I thinking. wow I guess this is going to be the new. thing you know Cobra. And uh nope it.
wasn't. Too bad though. Huh? Oh, we. missed that one. >> Is it too bad? >> God, I love movies. >> You do? >> All right. So, anyway, >> we got off on a tangent and I have to I. have to bring it home, which is. >> Chill Chums isn't about a place. It's. about a state of mind. And it isn't. about whether it's in the yard. It isn't. about whether it's anywhere in the Los. Angeles area or if it's on a private. island. Uh, it's not about that. It's. whenever we get together and we decide. to be chill chums uh and get the old.
s'mores out. It creates a special magic. It's a special bond. Uh it's a tie-in. for various companies you want to. [laughter] advertise. Sure. >> It's uh I'm told it's something called. fan service by Adam who says it in a. very cold voice. Fan [snorts] service. [laughter]. >> Um it's true. >> Yeah. Fan service. Uh so it was a joy. It was a real joy. I want to thank you. both. I had a great experience and uh I. loved it. It's a lot of fun and I'm. looking forward to.
>> uh next year when we do it all again. Who knows where and who knows why. >> And all the people that helped with this. too and two of the big ones are in this. room too cuz Blade does so much work. >> Blade does a lot. I mean Tanisha. >> he [laughter]. engineers the whole thing. >> Leonardo um. >> Dr. Royo. Thank you Dr. Roy. >> Definitely also I mean Ruthie Sam. Yeah. I I mean, all these people work so hard. They do a great job. We love them. >> We're a family here. And by family, I. mean everyone's paid. Um.
>> and doesn't like each other. [laughter]. >> Um and makes fun of me behind my back. Uh so, and in front of my face. Um this. was really nice. It was really fun. So, I hope you enjoyed it as much as we. enjoyed doing it. >> I love Chill Chumps. >> Wow. You really [laughter] You thought. for a long time and you came up with a. great ender.
