Hear Me Out with RJ & Bley

Each week, long-time friends and Conan O'Brien staffers RJ Thieneman and Aaron Bleyeart, who weirdly have no common interests, take turns introducing a subject they're passionate about, but the other just doesn’t understand. Whether it's camping, beer, home-ownership, or Harrison Ford, RJ and Bley use a combination of personal anecdotes, painstaking wikipedia research, and a guest expert’s opinion to convince each other the subject is absolutely worthwhile. At the end of the show, whoever is convinced (or thoroughly unconvinced) donates to the episode's designated charity. RJ and Bley may not always agree on things they like, but this podcast is sure to make them better friends - or mortal enemies.
