Conan’s podcast is technically between seasons, so no guests/friends, but to round out the ad buys already purchased, he’s done a handful of installments just riffing with his assistant and the podcast producer. If you like Conan being Conan, they are fun to listen to. On Thu, Jul 2, 2020 at 8:14

Like most of his brethren, Conan's kept his home shows pretty static - Two-shots with the guests and single shots of him (and maybe Andy) during other segments.  Maybe the theater setting will prompt some experimentation. At 280 seats, it's about 60 percent the capacity of the Ed, and it's more

I wish there were more clips or even full episodes of Jack Paar’s Tonight Show, featuring Hugh Downs as the sidekick. I found the audio of the infamous episode where Paar walked off after the network censored an innocuous comedy sketch, leaving Downs to fill. https://youtu.be/V3dVEzLIQYQ On

Understood, and not offered as any kind of defense, but more as perspective on the idea that, by 1979, all right-thinking people had rejected discrimination. It was (and still is, to a degree) a pretty popular idea down there to the point of naming an airport after one of their own. --Dave
