Conan

Josh Abbott was our first in studio guest on Radio Texas, LIVE! this year, which served as merely a warm up for him and his band, as last night he and the boys played for a much bigger national television audience. Last night (Jan. 18th), Lubbock-based Josh Abbott Band made their second late night television appearance as they took their Texas sound to Burbank, CA, to be on Conan...

There’s been enough turnover in late-night over the last year that Conan O’Brien’s Conan has often turned to high-concept hours and trips to steer attention, having kept steady on TBS for several years. Now, a shakeup may see Conan shifted to a weekly format, akin to Full Frontal With Samantha Bee.

TBS’ Conan has been running strong for six full years now, frequently pushing the format with trips to Comic-Con, Cuba and more, but not everything goes off without a hitch. See for yourself, as wayward ravens derail Conan and Andy’s attempt to make a Game of Thrones sketch in a new behind-the-scenes sneak peek.

What does your favourite superheroes' colors tell the audience about their personalities? Using the same color theory people use to group-think a corporate logo, or paint their room, we've been exploring what it means to superhero comics. Last time we mentioned that The Invisible Woman's blue and white is wise, and elemental, but what does invisible mean as a color? The Wasp's one constant through her many costume changes has been her transparent, flighty wings. And while Kitty Pryde, who also can't seem to settle on a costumes (or a name), isn't transparent as a color, she does actually pass through things.

Marvel’s Ant-Man opens in theaters today and to this point we’ve seen no shortage of trailers, clips and TV spots showing off all kinds of footage. But, on the last stop on his promotional tour for the movie, Paul Rudd stopped by to visit Conan O’Brien and brought something extra special.

We all know David Letterman was a fan of RWH, with his retirement might he have a new late night champion in Conan O'Brien? We can hope.

Sturgill Simpson had a surprise for all of us when he stopped by for the second time on Conan earlier this week.

Now give this a chance. It might sound boring – Adam Sandler talks about food with Conan O’Brien – but the former Saturday Night Live stars (Sandler was, of course, a cast member, while O’Brien as a long-time writer) have some pretty tall tales to share about their time on the show, specifically as it applies to meals.

Last month everyone in Texas tuned in to watch Waco native, Wade Bowen, make his national television debut -- we all just love to see one of our own get a bigger spotlight. Well, last week Wade was on with us to talk about that, his new album with Randy Rogers, to debut his new single West Texas Rain, and more.

If you missed it last night on the tele, and you failed to set your DVR, that's ok! We've got the internet. Check out Wade Bowen making his national television debut, and doin' Texas proud; singin' his multi-week No. 1 hit When I Woke Up Today, from his self-titled album.

I love seeing this. Love it when our Texas and Oklahoma bands get the national love they deserve. If you recall, back in November Wade Bowen tweeted that he and the boys would be heading to Los Angeles to record a performance for Conan on TBS, well, that day is today.
