EP. 30 — Martin Short

Comedian and actor Martin Short feels ashamed about being Conan O’Brien’s friend.

Martin and Conan sit down to chat about the best time to be 30, the production of Godspell that started it all, how Martin’s Irish heritage shaped his comedy, doing Bette Davis in front of Bette Davis, and which character Martin would like to be buried as. Plus, Conan and his team deconstruct the family dynamic of the show.
