About this episode
Director and screenwriter James L. Brooks feels quizzical about being Conan O’Brien’s friend.
James sits down with Conan to discuss his journey from CBS usher to writing for the best of 70s and 80s television, creating The Mary Tyler Moore Show at exactly the right time, and returning to directing for the screen with his latest film Ella McCay. Plus, Aaron Bleyaert makes a return to expose a hygiene scandal in the studio.
