Hello. Hi, Josh. Welcome to Conan Needs a fan with Conan and special guest, Paul Shear.

Hey, Josh. Hey, Josh. And I understand, Josh, you and I have not met, but you and Paul have, have chatted on the podcast. Is that right? Yeah, I guess so, right? We met, you tied it with David, but I was in the room. So I shook your hand, but you likely won't remember me from all the activity. Well, quick question, Josh, was he cold and dismissive when you shook his hand?

Was he, like, did he try and big time you?

He looked deep into my eyes.

I panicked and I left and I handed it into David.

This is the effect I have on people, you know?

He did it with me today.

So, yes, we have special guest, the very funny Paul Shear, sitting in with us, and he's going to help us help you.

Because what I like to do is meet fans and find out about them and then help them with their issues, if they have any.

And so, Josh, tell us a little bit about yourself.

Yeah, so I live in Bellevue, Washington, my wife of 17 years.

I have three kids.

Today I'm in Chicago because I'm here for a national funeral convention because I run a

direct-to-consumer casket and earned company.

I was going to say, I thought I'm just going to say I'm glad he's in the funeral business.

Because if you were just fan-boying out at the convention, I'd be creeped at.

I was going to say, what happens if someone dies are y'all in Chicago right now? I mean, what's going to happen?

The best possible place. But you should attend one funeral convention in your life, I would say. Not two, but one.

I disagree. But, you know, we can talk, and let's talk about it. And you can tell me a little bit about the business.

What do you do in the funeral business, Josh?

So most families, when they have a loss, they go to their local funeral home.
