Paul Rudd Pranks Conan O’Brien Yet Again With ‘Mac And Me’ Prank During Podcast Visit

etcanada.com:

Paul Rudd dropped by Conan O’Brien’s “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend” podcast, and managed to fool the host with the same prank he’s fallen for many, many times before.

As loyal viewers of “Conan” (and before that, “Late Night with Conan O’Brien”, and, for a few brief months, “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien”) will recall, whenever Rudd paid O’Brien a visit, he would always set up a clip for an upcoming project — with that clip always ending up being the same ridiculous scene from 1988 flop “Mac and Me”.

While the entire hour-long podcast episode can be heard here, Team Coco isolated the moment so it can be enjoyed independently.

But it’s been fun, and I’ve been working on it and recording it with my friends.” Rudd continues by explaining the plot of the new audio series, in which he plays a publicist who falls in love with a woman from New Orleans (played by Celia Weston) who works behind the counter of a craft store.
