This week's "Naked Lunch' has a very special kick -- a very special sidekick  -- actor, comedian, writer, podcaster Andy Richter. Phil, David & Andy try to answer a suddenly pressing question --  is David Phil's sidekick on "Naked Lunch"? And if not, what the hell is he? Andy Richter discusses his long career in show business, working wonderfully and hilariously well with Conan O'Brien, some of his favorite late night guests, and his current "Three Questions with Andy Richter" podcast.  Then, Andy, Phil and David do a deep dive on the famously complicated history of the drama surrounding Conan, Jay Leno, NBC and "The Tonight Show." Andy also shares the story of a remarkable meal he had alongside Jay in 2022. Please Note: This episode was recorded shortly before Jay Leno's recent injury in a garage fire and was held back until Jay had recovered and returned to work.
