Eduardo is like the cool guy, that is so cool, he actually talks to the nerds in the nerds table.

[ronch]

I'm more excited to hear from people who work on this podcast than any of the guests.

[Czechbound]

Funny thing is, Eduardo has the best radio voice. And he's the sound guy !

[jobama]

In case anyone is wondering:
*Audio/Mixing Engineers* (Eduardo) Work in a studio recording, mixing, and mastering audio contents.
*Sound Engineers* Work on a live stage making sure the performance sounds great
*Recording Engineers* Are responsible for Mic-ing and recording things like Vocals, Choirs, Instruments, Foley and the hardest one, Drums

[arturomena]

They should record the games and then have Conan and Sona do match commentary on the highlights 😂😂 would love if Aaron or other staff join, imagin with the Italian Stallion Jordan Schlansky too.

[RJHart]

Gourley joined a foosball team. Sona opted for rollerball. Jordan Schlansky patiently explained the physical dynamics of kicking a ball.

[THETRIVIALTHINGS]

Everything Conan says, I imagine it as a classic Simpsons gag. That bit about pony and chopper, I swear that bit would be a perfect gag for Mr. Burns lol

[TomWDW]

Gourley is a gorgeous man. I applaud him for wanting to keep active ... and for agreeing to wear soccer shorts in public ❤

[darthgon]

5:38 I just realized I've never seen him stand up either.

[mohamed_m_hagag]

I always thought that Eduardo looked familiar, and now that they mention football I realize he looks a lot like Varane (a French footballer)

[joseville]

Make sure you warm up, stretch, and don't overexert yourself until you get more familiar with your body's abilities/limits, esp. since you're coming from relative inactivity. Don't want to pull something or injure yourself right away just as you're starting on your fitness journey.

[AntonioCSimoni]

Will someone please have them ask Matt about him winning a contest for who can best imitate the sound of a flushing toilet????

Excerpt from the 1997 LA Times article:
"Rich Little’s Next Gig? I try to stay away from writing about bathroom issues, but I have a colleague who’s nuts about this one: Fluidmaster Inc. of Anaheim held a contest Wednesday to see who can best imitate the sound of a flushing toilet. First prize was $1, 000.

The whole idea behind it was to promote water savings, by getting people to repair leaky toilets. Fluidmaster, a manufacturer of toilet tank repair parts, claims that one leaky toilet can waste enough water after one year to fill a swimming pool.

The contest was called a flush-off. It ended up in a tie, so a flush-off II had to be held. The winner was Matt Gourley of Long Beach. Spokeswoman Nan Larsen told me that if you closed your eyes, “he sounded exactly like a real toilet flushing.” Gourley’s gimmick: He played a broken toilet. Further details you really don’t want to read here."

[qlej]

someone needs to record them playing. please.

[michaelwai]

How awesome looping Eduardo into segments now

[kashbrownz]

Petition for Eduardo to be an official guest for an episode 🙌🏾

[xToddmcx]

I think Conan saying he's never been a rock star to others in the ad is funny. Because almost every comedian that comes on the podcast says oh yeah, you gave me my big break by booking me on your show when no one else would take the risk, and you've been so supportive of my career, etc.

[alexis_ramirez]

Sona didn't think we'd notice her drawing at 1:25 but we did

[elizabethhan]

I'm legitimately worried about Gourley playing soccer in the heat.

[JT-fdtf]

Go Gourley! As a fellow dad who grew his dad bod for 10 years, I'm on a fitness journey of my own at 49 years old. We love fitness content. Do a remote with no Conan. His presence would alter the vibe of a rec soccer match. We want Gourley being nervous and Sona ogling those fine soccer fellas.

[claptonfan]

Sona: how good are you at soccer?

Matt: i'm...I'm ok

Sona: I think you're exaggerating

Sona's always going in for the kill hahaha
