The Hoddle of Coffee: Tottenham Hotspur News and Links for Wednesday, August 12

good morning everyone –

Great news: Conan O’Brien’s travel show is coming back! Here’s a sneak peek:

The late-night icon and Tilda Swinton stand-in is embarking on his third series of Conan O’Brien Must Go, where he visits fans in different countries around the world. It’s kind of a spin-off to his podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Fan, which itself is a spin-off from his main podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend.

The ConeZone is getting his miles in this season. He’s travelling to the Philippines, Morocco, the Netherlands and India. That all sounds like great fun!

I’ll be interested to see how this show continues to develop. The first series was brilliant because Conan literally showed up unannounced to some of these fans’ homes. Series 2 they could see it coming (and I don’t think he planned any of it as a surprise). Still, an engagement and a hit Norwegian song came out of it.

You’re asking what Conan might be up to now. Well you might find him listening to Geese at the Outside Lands festival in Northern California. Or you might find him playing with his band, The Vigodas.

The man is living his best life, and he deserves it. The Hoddle remains firmly #TeamCoco.
