Martin Shorts roast Conan OBrien for 5 brutal minutes

Martin Short unleashed a barrage of scathing remarks during a recent appearance on the Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend podcast, delivering a five-minute onslaught of ridicule against the host. The Only Murders in the Building actor wasted no time in launching a series of sharp barbs, beginning with a vivid description of O'Brien's appearance during a recent dinner in London.

Short remarked, "It's almost like I was seeing you in a new light, because that night I thought, 'He looks like the love-child between Lurch and Kathy Griffin, and I don't often feel that about people.' Because you're very, you know, you're pale. You look like a cue tip with ketchup on it." The comedian's comments elicited laughter from O'Brien, who playfully shot back, "I mean, you're white. You look like a human surrender."
