Uzo Aduba

Actress Uzo Aduba feels interested in being Conan O’Brien’s friend. Uzo sits down with Conan to discuss bringing her mother to the White House, nearly quitting acting before landing her breakout role on Orange Is the New Black, realizing what makes us unique makes us better, and her new book The Road Is Good: How a Mother’s Strength Became a Daughter’s Purpose. Later, Conan and his team escape the heat with some impromptu Verbal Jazz. For Conan videos, tour dates and more visit TeamCoco.com. Got a question for Conan? Call our voicemail: (669) 587-2847.

After 25 years at the Late Night desk, Conan realized that the only people at his holiday party are the men and women who work for him. Over the years and despite thousands of interviews, Conan has never made a real and lasting friendship with any of his celebrity guests. So, he started a podcast to do just that. Deeper, unboundedly playful, and free from FCC regulations, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend is a weekly opportunity for Conan to hang out with the people he enjoys most and perhaps find some real friendship along the way.
