Rivers is awesome and so cool to glimpse the person behind the music who's growing, healing, learning and evolving. What a beautiful example he sets.
Not marrying each other got me
Now I need to find more Weezer interviews
Conan O'Brien & Co. just keeps getting better and better. God bless this podcast! I feel like they're just as ambitious as before but now they have even more creative freedom. Conan is ultimately very down to earth guy who is honest to himself and others around him. That is his legacy and why people keep showing up. Already waiting for the book!

Just in from work and what wips that grim away is. First the joy in seeing an upload. Second. Laughing out loud. Thanks for sharing.
Conan. You are the best. Hands down. I became a fan later than most….was always watching Letterman growing up because my Mom preferred CBS over the other MSM channels. So I’m a huge Letterman fan. But I’m an even bigger Conan fan now. Keep doing whatever it is you do because you get better and better.
I've really been digging these Cuomo clips and I can't wait to hear the full episode. I'm not always keen on listening to celebs (Conan doesn't count) but Cuomo is just so down to Earth and prolific.
I love Conan, he look like he just rolled out of bed and sat down and started the podcast,he was like" f@#k combing my hair I'm a national treasure" 😂😂
I know the secret... it's me! I mean, of course it's not me, but literally the first 5 albums I ever bought as a teen coming of age in the early 90's were all debut albums, and somehow all of those groups are still together in 2022, they've been consistently releasing music the entire time, and they're all massively successful major headliners. 1) Radiohead - Pablo Honey 2) Weezer's Blue Album 3) Foo Fighters - Foo Fighters 4) Korn - Korn 5) Deftones - Adrenaline Honorable Mention: #7 was QOTSA's debut, Rated R

You put it in hindsight man. I don't see Weezer as a band with longevity because music quality has been shaky since the 90s but now that I think of it... so there has been many bands who broken up, on indefinite hiatus, or just moved on with their lives since then...god...
From the BBC here is a show idea. It fall in 2 of the three of your hosts wheelhouse. The 5th October 1962 was a big bang moment for modern British culture. John Higgs takes Spencer Mizen back to the momentous day when the Beatles’ first single, Love Me Do, was released and the first James Bond film, Dr No, debuted in British cinemas, to explore what the meteoric rise of these two cultural giants reveals about Britain in the early 1960s. (Ad) John Higgs is the author of Love and Let Die: Bond, the Beatles and the British Psyche (Orion, 2022).
Conan's comedy just gets better as the years go on
Like I said for years about Norm MacDonald! Someone give this man a talk show!!!
Very good Conan. Always great!
1:03 😹😹😹
Keep evolving! ❤
The key to Weezer was the contrast between Cuomo and Matt Sharp, and also having three guys who can sing and have different style voices, beatles-esque. After Sharp left the group of course they still had some hits, but If he had stayed they would of entered an even higher musical stratosphere. Brian Bell- Harrison, Cuomo-Mccartney, Sharp-Lennon. Not saying they were as good as the Beatles, but I think their roles were as such.

The band hasn't put out anything as a whole worth anyone's time since 2002. They're not a good band anymore and they haven't been a good band since the 90's. Maladroit is probably the last record they did with even a shred of interesting work to it. Rivers was a good songwriter for a time but it changed. Life changes people. Glad he's gotten happier over time but to say that Weezer was the same band after the 90's would be false. Rivers chopped a lot of good musicians over the years to satisfy his ego and maintain control. Not a good person during their heyday.

I see this as the Conan Obrien show. And I like it better, because he can do whatever he wants, and not have to worry about censoring, because he is at a place where he has a loyal audience that will support.

There was a time in the very late 90’s where Weezer seemed like one of those bands that faded away and their days were over. Then they came out with the Green album in 2000 or 2001. Not only was I surprised they put out that album, I was surprised it was on MTV and also surprised it was selling okay. Not because they weren’t good but because I thought no one cared about them anymore. I was wrong.
Conan is the GOAT

It sounds like Rivers shared the secret to Conan's longevity. Conan sweetie, when you ask a question, let the other person finish talking before you unleash your me me me blabalanche .
David Geffen looked upon Rivers Cuomo and said unto thee, "bring me a song that even someone who looks like you can make a hit.." And Rivers has been pretty much doing that here and there with Weezer for 30 years.
Wheres CONAN?! WE WANT a CONAN SHOW BACK!!!!!!!! Not taking anything away from these interviews. Just letting the team know I miss a Cocan show.

2000 was over 20 years ago though. They’ve been consistently putting out new music since then. Yeah, they’ve taken some hiatuses but if a band that put out their first album in 1994 and is still putting out new music isn’t longevity, I don’t know what is. Lots of bands go through rough patches, break up and reform. If you can manage to stay together and sustain for this long after all that, it’s called longevity. The fact that their old albums still resonate with people and are revered and acclaimed is longevity.
Noooo what happened to the hella mega mullet

Just thought I'd mention that not every man sees a massive drop in Testosterone with age, that is highly individual. There are men who have almost the same T levels when they're 70 as when they were 25.
Well, they certainly do not have any chemistry in conversation together.. Rivers seems like a snooze, though nice..

I can answer for Rivers: We release a ton of music, half of which is laughably bad, but our popular songs from the '90s are enough to keep people paying attention.

It's an interesting situation that you kind of have to reframe if you want to stay positive about the good stuff. Which IS worth it. There's 2-3 hours of Weezer music that I absolutely love. That's 2-3 hours more than 99% of other bands I've heard in my life.
