In short

Part three of Conan O’Brien’s “gummies saga,” sparked by staff receiving Camino edibles; the hosts debate which Camino gummy type to try and whether Conan will ever actually take one.

Guests/backgrounds

No guest interview. Main hosts are Conan O’Brien, Sona Movsesian, and Matt Gourley. Ryan Reynolds appears only in Mint Mobile ad copy.

Key claims

Camino sent a large, personalized Yeti cooler of gummies after Sona mentioned the brand; the episode insists it’s “not an ad.” Gummies are categorized by effects (sleep, energy, social, chill, etc.), with doses described as very low (e.g., 2 mg). Conan jokes he’ll take one “tonight” but is likely too nervous; the saga will continue to a future installment.

Notable examples

“Conan’s Guide to his first edible” booklet; Disney/“Disneyland High” anecdotes; Burning Man and “Mad Max” jokes; staff planning to “take one of each” and record.

0:48Conan O 'Brien needs a fan. Want to talk to Conan? Visit teamcoco.com slash call Conan. Okay, let's get started. Hello and welcome to Conan O 'Brien Needs a Friend. Gang, good to see you. Normally we do a fan episode in this slot, but not the case today. This is a follow-up episode. This is part three of the gummies saga. Yes. Now this all began a while ago when we were talking about gummies and one thing led to another. And Sona, you got me some gummies. and someone correct me if I'm wrong, but this company Camino, that's where you got the gummies. You gave me some. You guys were asking me, would you try some?

1:33I've been very hesitant. I've done small bites of the sleep one, which seems to be good. Okay. That's fine. I've done very little of it and I'm a big guy, so I'm probably not doing nearly enough. They sent some other ones, which I haven't really experimented with. Yeah. To be honest with you, because my mind is a very strange place anyway. Yeah. And I've never been anxious to enhance that in any way. But something arrived today, Saha. Oh, it sure did. You want to talk about it? Oh, yes, it did. So my whole point for bringing this up was so that they would send us some free stuff. This has been your ploy since the beginning.

2:10That's all I wanted. Yeah. I mean, to be honest, I don't care if you do it. But I just... I was going to say, you seem really concerned about me. No, yeah, not at all. No, you don't care. I really, I mentioned the brand and then they messaged me on Instagram, which I missed. And thanks to David Hopping, he's like, I think they messaged you. You have to check it. And then they said they wanted to send us stuff. My new best friend, Melissa, came by from Camino and gave. She came by personally? She came by personally. To your house or? No, no, here. Oh. Yeah, they were in the office. Who's Melissa?

2:45Melissa, she works in marketing at Camino. Do you have her number? I do, I do. And then they sent over this massive Yeti cooler. Melissa. Wait a minute. What if there's just like a spleen in there? It does look like there's a major organ in there. Yes. Oh, my God. It is a gigantic like cooler that they sent. And you think, oh, maybe there's a few. There's like, there's so many in here. and I can't tell you how just what? Dump them out? In the middle. Yeah, right here. I just, hold on. This is why Sona got Oh my god. This is like Scrooge McDuck with all his gold coins but just some pothead. This is incredible.

3:41It's unbelievable. The haul is unbelievable. They sent the mints I love. they sent all the things I love you understand that's a microphone that's a microphone and you are shouting into it I'm not the only one who's excited you should have seen it what? I have one of these coolers it does come with that just take the lubricant I just took a bite out of the Yeti I just took a bite out of the zipper lubricant that'll get you so high I have a question what the hell? This came in. This came to. Oh, my God. Look at this. There's personalized. Yes. They sent they sent a personalized one for me. I should hold up, I guess.

4:28It's social. What's social mean? It's the name. All of them have like different purposes. So there's like sleep and energy. Social do. Social doesn't like make you zone out so that you could go to like a social event. This is what Melissa told me. And then you can actually have conversations with people. you just feel good. You don't get paranoid? No. And then there's a note from Christy who is the co-founder and president. And this, I mean, we're at the very top. It's just such an, I mean, and everybody at the office is really excited about this. Yeah. You want to take that one? You know what's nice?

5:03You can take that one. They have a sense of humor. They did send me this Conan's Guide to his first edible. Did you see this? What? Yeah. It looks like a little religious pamphlet. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, you know, so you want to masturbate. Well, and then. That's a booklet that I got at the library. That tin has your face on it. They actually put your face on it. The tin has my face on it. This is the same face they used on the booklet, So You Want to Masturbate. To deter you from masturbating. Yeah. This one is social. So social would do what for me? It would help me. Well, I think she. Should I try one?

5:42Yeah. Yeah. No. Oh, no. It's two milligrams. Yeah, it's very, very, you're not going to feel anything. It's just the most amount of edibles I've ever seen. This is an incredible haul. Sona, how much of this are you going to keep yourself and how much are you going to share? Be honest. I'm going to keep all of it. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm going to share it. Everybody's really excited. Okay. You're going to share this with everyone. I do want to stress, this is not an ad. Right. We're not getting paid anything. This happened organically. you are a terrible uh person sona um and you went out of your way to mention uh this this this gummy uh and got some and then i started talking about it and now we're flooded with gummies i still don't know what my personal journey is going to be okay i know i'm acting like it's a big deal but i don't know i want to be responsible and i'm an old square let's face it but um i'm uh i do thank Camino for being so generous.

6:43And I know that everyone on our staff is going to be, uh, flying high. I'm taking one of each. Are you really? Yeah. You know, now what's going to happen at your house? Do you, will your wife, will you take a journey together? Is that what's going to happen? She's a little bit more, she's just, oh my God. You got to be in a safe view. You're acting like they're going to do like ayahuasca. It's not like peyote. It's not like a fishing quest. You know what I love? In my mind, it is like ayahuasca. and I see like, hey, it's time for some pineapple habanero journey we're going to take. And that you're going to see a Native American chief.

7:21Oh my God. And he's going to lead you down a volcano. Unbelievable. And you're going to ride a dragon. In my mind, I know I'm old school. I'm an old. That's not even old school though. That's just wrong. Wait, did you like watch Reefer Madness once? And you were like, oh, I can never do that. No, I think a lot of this comes from my culture. A lot of it comes from, you know, my parents, the way I grew up. He watched Reefa Madison and went, they're being a little lenient. Yeah. I still, I have a couple of times when I've really felt like taking a walk on the wild side. I have, I have, I have walked.

7:56Had a Coke? Yeah, no. I've wandered around some pretty dicey neighborhood and said, Reefa? Reefa anyone? Reefa? Did your parents like have like a conversation with you about it? No. Okay. Wait, my parents and I never spoke. There's a lot of kids. I think once they saw me in the hall and they were like, you know, how you doing there, bud? You never got a sex or drug talk at all. Of course not. Not even. Sex, forget that. No one's talked about it. I haven't talked about it with my brothers. I don't think any of us have had sex. I don't know how these kids showed up. I didn't. I'm older, but I got to talk, but I didn't get any usable information.

8:43Right. Okay. I want to ask you guys something. Just looking at these, Camino has suggested social for me, which, yeah, I really need help with my social skills. Hello.

9:02I was at the airport. I was waiting in one of those long lines and I kept saying, hey, let me through. I'm Conan O 'Brien. And they said, shut up. You'll wait in line. And I went, okay. That's so sad. It's a really good story. But I was hungry. I didn't have a snack with me. You got to keep, and I didn't want to lose my place in line and go try and find something. I know. That's when you got to have Nutri-Grain on you. You got to always have a snack in your bag and when it's a Nutri-Grain, it's perfect. It's perfect because it's the right size. It's handy. It's also nutritious. Yes. Okay. You can go anywhere.

9:35It's made with 10 grams of whole grains, 10 vitamins and minerals. These guys are obsessed with 10s. And no high fructose corn syrup. Nutri-Grain nourishes and it hits the spot with delicious flavors. They got strawberry, apple cinnamon, blueberry flavors. I just had a blueberry back in the snack area. Yeah. With a little bit of a glass of milk. You earned it. Nice job. Nice job. Find nutritious and always delicious Nutri-Grain bars at your favorite store or online retailer today and look for new Nutri-Green Crunchy Bars in stores near you. Oh, I'll get that crunchy, I will. Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.

10:13Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for$15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made$15 bills, but it turns out that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch.

11:47But anyway, which one, Sona, I'll ask you first, and you too, Gourley, that's that's which one of these uplifting bliss i'm going to take sleep out of the conversation because that's very specific um would you think would be balance which is the one that i should be taking this is what i can take to like disneyland energy oh yeah that makes me that makes me go and what is when you say energy you're just you're you're up you're just like smiling i'm in a good place i want to go on the winnie the pooh ride i mean that one's like good that People, whoever worked at Disney. Why are you getting so...

12:24Years of... Again, you either shout into a mic or whisper. But either way, your voice is being recorded. Is this like an assessment of my performance on this? I don't like it. I think that there's... Whoever worked at Disney. Yeah. They must have done so much acid. The Imagineers. Yeah. Not even this. Acid. Because some of those rides don't make any... Remember Journey into Inner Space, what used to be there before Star Tours? No. Oh boy, do I. Drug trip. What are you talking about? What do you mean? No!

12:58It was sponsored by Monsanto. Was it really? No. And you go into like molecules and it's all a drug trip with this projected bouncing molecules. No offense to Camino, but we don't need any of this. We can go to Disneyland. Yeah, we can. And have the same experience. Yeah. Oh, but it's better. It's better when you're on this and at Disneyland. Have you gone to Disneyland High? Yes. Yeah, I had a whole story about when they saw me smuggling in. I don't even listen to her when she's on the podcast and we're recording it. Okay. I had a whole thing where I tried to smuggle in a whole thing of edibles.

13:32And then it was like this. I didn't even try to hide it. And they're like, you can't do that. You should have made a wheelchair out of gummies. And said, like, I sprained my ankle. And so I can't walk today. But are the mechanics. And it's like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. When you turn the wheels. because it's just, and it's saggy and in the sun it's starting to melt. I think she's - And then they're like, excuse me, ma 'am, why are you chewing on, why are you chewing on the footrest of your wheelchair? Yeah, and I get to go to the front of every line. Yeah, you get to the front of the line and you're high as a kite.

14:02Yeah, people who have actual disabilities won't be offended by that. So social and then energy. You're gonna be fine. You're gonna be fine. But you know what I love? That you're stacking it like a dealer. Can I tell you why? First of all, you're messing it up. I'm doing this because I know people are going to come in and I want them to be able to choose by by type. I think people should have to go to you and you tell them which one you get. Do a personality. Yes. Oh, I think you should. I don't think you should just lay them out on a table and people grab them. So I think you should sit there and people come up and you're like, huh, Ruthie.

14:36Yeah. You don't need uplifting because you're very uplifting already. I think you need recover and I should charge everybody. Yeah. Well, What do you, what do you, there you go, make some money on this. Describe me which one I should take. You, okay, sleep we know,$50. Chill. Wait, what? $50? I want him to pay me$50 for these free edibles that I got. I will pay you in Moroccan money. I think you really need to try chill. I definitely think you need to try the really low dosage one. I think, you know what, work your way up and then we'll get to like peyote or ayahuasca. Maybe we'll work our way up to that.

15:11You need a shaman. You need somebody, if you get nervous, What if four weeks from now I am wearing a full headdress? I'm just out of it. You know what I mean? That'd be amazing. You're a stoner? I'm just a total stoner. I'm twirling. Or you've had like a spiritual awakening and you have a third eye and you just have become this, like you said, a shaman or with a headdress or something. That'd be amazing. Yeah. Or what if it actually helps you and chills you out a little bit? Good. What if I go to Burning Man at the end? They burn me. Then we all win. Like he's tall. He's sort of stick-like. Let's burn him up.

15:47And I'm like, whatever. I don't know. Have you guys ever gone to Burning Man? God, no. I feel like you kind of would. I don't think he would. You're the one that would go to Burning Man. I would. Yeah. I have friends who've gone. They've done orgy. Why do you keep doing this whispering thing? I don't know because I'm worried. We're in a podcast. You're like, I don't know if you've ever been to McDonald's, but they have shakes. Yeah, we know. Shakes. I don't know. sometimes I get nervous if the things that I'm saying are allowed to be said. Why do you think I'd go to, is it because of like the building stuff and everything?

16:20Yes. That's where all engineers gather. You're an engineer with a hammer, go to Burning Man. Everyone has a misunderstanding. I don't know anything. And I know that that's not what. Burning Man is like engineering projects. But you also, you create communities. And I think you would be like the guy who had all the random stuff. Nobody else thought of. Coachella, Burning Man, nothing against either of these, but any place where thousands of people go on one road to get there and out gives me so much anxiety. Because all I can think of is like Mad Max Fury Road. Yes, but you know what? In the second Mad Max movie, you know that weird gyrocopter that that guy has?

16:57I would go to Burning Man if I had access to one of those. And the same goofy leather helmet that he wore. And when things started to go south, I could go like, see you later, gang. And I go up in the air. That's pretty good. Yeah, yeah. I'll get you one of those. Okay. I'll go with you. Those can't be that expensive. Two coolest guys at Burning Man right here. So you think I should do energy or chill? No, you think I should do chill, not energy. I think you need to do the one with your face on it. Yeah, but I don't know why I have energy over here. No, energy is the last one I think you need.

17:25I don't know. I think you need chill. Here, take that one. Okay. No shade to Camino, but when I've bought marijuana, sometimes it's named after different things. Marijuana? When I bought weed, sorry, when I bought weed, I bought a cool John Wick weed and I bought a White Walker from Game of Thrones weed. I mean, they can up their name game. What do you mean? That's just the names of them? That's the name of it. But it makes, you know, I'm like, oh, I want to get some John Wick. This is all energy and sleep. Can I say that? We've never got any free shit from those people. Yeah. And Camino has sent us all this free stuff.

17:57I like how this stuff is categorized too because we haven't talked about it a lot, but I did a fair amount of weed in my 30s, but then that paranoia hit me. Yeah. And so now I'm curious if social will work for me because if it doesn't... I'm going to say this. Waked and baked. I'm on the record as saying I really haven't tried gummies and I've never done any drugs in my life, but I think Camino is killing it. Yeah. I think they're doing an amazing job. What a great spokesman. I don't use this product. I don't use this product. I'm not qualified to talk about it, but God bless you, Camino. I think you're doing an amazing job.

18:30Agreed. And they were nice to my people. I got to say that. They were nice to my squad. You know, I was once - Uh-oh, Adam's got something. I was just going to say, I think this is part three of the edible saga and Conan has yet to have an edible. That's so true. We should see how many episodes we can do in the saga where Conan still doesn't try it. Will it finally culminate in him doing it? I say no. You know what it is? It's a movie. It's got a strong will they, won't they element or series. And you, if they go to bed, it's over. But remember Lost, they prolonged it too long before you know.

18:59I'm not going to be Lost. But I am, I'm not going to do that. All right. But it's going to be a Breaking Bad ending where everyone's like, they nailed it. They stuck the landing. So all I'm asking is that for people stick with us for a couple more years. While these Camino gummies molder and petrified in my nightstand. And by the way, I'm going to get burgled so fast. Everyone's going to break in and go right to my nightstand and take my Camino. But no, I'm going to, yeah, we will see. At one point, this will resolve. and I will I don't think it will I'm gonna say it you'll never do it so you don't want people to keep listening to the podcast no I want them to but I feel like you'll just never do I don't think you can break that programming I think you're just too nervous I don't think you'll do it there's no way we'd all come in about an hour before we record take a standard dose and then record an episode no I would do it I would I just want to make sure that we're being responsible that kids listening know that this isn't something as a nerd I want to jock pummel you so bad I just want to like I want to wet will you I want to wedgie you I want to shove you in a locker You do that And just go nerd And then I want to go win a football game I don't know how that's going to happen Well, but I want to Spoken like a true aggro job I'll wet will you Oh, I can't wait To give you the old purple nurple And then go hit the gridiron That's my point You're making my point.

20:35I know. Do you really think you'll do it? I'm being, this is a serious question. I think I will. I don't think you will. I'm only saying it to create this incredible tension. I'm going to do one tonight. But you know you're, it's okay if you're not. If you're not that guy, you're not that guy. We'll find out. It's okay. We'll find out. What if it changes him and then that changes the whole, then he decides to just move to Bali and not do the podcast anymore. Then we've screwed ourselves. No, have we? Well, I'm just saying. You'll never work again. that's my ambition. You will never, no, no, Sona, I want people to keep listening because there's going to be another installment and I think you're all going to be, there's going to be a number four.

21:14What more are we going to talk about? And I think you're all going to be fascinated by what happened and it's coming.
