Episode notes

This chapter explores the ridiculousness and danger associated with a political figure, while also delving into the fascination with hands and admiration for author Robert Caro. They discuss the strong fan base for reading extensively about historical figures like LBJ, and end with acknowledgements and a sponsorship message from LinkedIn and Gold Peak Real Brew Tea.

Late-night legend and podcasting impresario Conan O’Brien joins Kara to talk about the decline of late night, the writers’ strike, his $150 million deal with SiriusXM and his new HBO Max show, Conan O’Brien Must Go. They also trade notes on interviewing and … accounting.
