Interviews with Conan O'Brien and Adam McKay - VIDEO

Conan O'Brien, host of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, and Adam McKay, co-writer and director of Talladega Nights and Anchorman and father of the infamous Pearl, have at least one thing in common: they both worked on Saturday Night Live. The other thing they have in common is that they were each interviewed recently by two different publications.

O'Brien was interviewed by StarWars.com to coincide with the recent taping of his show in San Francisco (George Lucas was a guest on the program). This was my favorite exchange:

What was your favorite part of visiting Lucasfilm/ILM when you were here in San Francisco?

The part when Lucas took me into a glass elevator. It smashed through the roof and he told me the entire chocolate factory was mine. That poor man has lost his mind.

Meanwhile, the Daily Collegian has a brief interview with McKay about the similarities between his Bill Brasky (embedded below) sketches for SNL and those ubiquitous Chuck Norris facts, not to mention the new comedy video site FunnyOrDie (already mentioned on this site several times).

Note to the Collegian: the improv style McKay spoke of is called "Harold" not "herald."
