Hi, my name is Bill Hader, and I feel great about being a Conor O'Brien's friend.

0:31.0

Hey there, welcome to Conor O'Brien's Needs A Friend. I had to pause briefly for this introduction

0:39.0

because I was finishing chewing. This is an Asian chicken salad. Yes. Yes, and I didn't want to be chewing on the air.

0:47.0

So I don't even know why I mentioned this because you didn't know that I had to delay. So this is just more evidence that I'm new to this format, and I desperately do need a friend.

0:58.0

I joined today by, of course, my trusty assistant, Movesistion. Hey, Sonah. Hey, Conan, that salad looks really good.

1:06.0

It is good. It's a good, very good Chinese chicken salad. It's a Chinese chicken salad, but you're eating it.

1:12.0

I took out a lot of the fried wonton pieces. Is that what it's called? Yeah, the wontons. You're eating, but nobody else is eating.

1:20.0

I think it's important to point that out. In ancient times, the king would eat. Oh my god. And everyone had to watch the king eat.

1:28.0

No, I believe you've, have you guys eaten? No, my stomach's growling. Oh, I'm pretty hungry.

1:46.0

Little, little tic tacs, a little bit of barbeque. I don't want to bust bison, what's been dried?

2:22.0

You guys could have just said Bridget fond. I could have saved a lot of time.

2:28.0

Yeah. I have to admit when my ancestor was at Ford's theater when Lincoln was shot and he ran out of the theater and said, Robert Lincoln's father's been shot.

2:38.0

People were like, what? And he went, you know, the husband of Mary Todd has been injured. And they were like, what?

2:46.0

He's like, I'm telling you. Why aren't you listening to me? The great grandson of Jebadiya Lincoln has been shot.
