Actress Gillian Anderson feels nonplussed about being Conan O’Brien’s friend.



Gillian sits down with Conan to discuss her iconic role as Agent Scully on The X-Files, exploring complexities of character as Margaret Thatcher on The Crown, and putting out the call for authentic desires for her latest book More: Sexual Fantasies by Anonymous. Plus, Conan and Sona take a platonic friendship quiz.

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.
