0:00.0	All right. Hello, everyone. Andy Richter here with another episode of the three questions
0:18.3	podcast. And today I will be talking to a very, very funny standup comedian named Taylor
0:27.0	Tom Linson, who was was Conan your first TV appearance. I had done last comic standing
0:35.8	in Comedy Central before that. But the first late night. Yeah, it was my first late night.
0:40.8	So I'm still going to say that we gave you your career. As you should. Yes. Absolutely.
0:45.8	Absolutely. It was the first TV appearance that I like really wanted. It was the first time
0:52.8	I was on TV where I was like, oh my gosh, I've been dreaming about this moment for you.
0:57.0	Oh, that's great. How was last comic standing? How was doing that? It was okay. It was fine.

2:02.0	think it was just because you were young. I think it was because you're young and good.
2:07.3	And I think that if you'd been five years older, you probably would have done just as well.
2:10.8	Oh, that's very nice. I mean, it's one of those things where like it's so it was like a hundred
2:15.2	comedians or something. Yeah, it was so many. So it's all so subjective and it's like anything in
2:22.4	this business where it's not just that you're good at stand up. It's like four other things as well
