Hi, everyone. It's Andy Richter and you have tuned into another episode of the three questions.

0:18.9

And I'm going to be posing those three questions today to a very, very funny man who I have

0:25.2

known for years and who is like practically like a neighborhood guy. Tom Papa, I mean,

0:35.5

because our kids go to the same school. I used to see you all the time on this show I worked

0:41.5

on Conan show. I think it was called I remember that. Yeah. Yeah. How are you? I'm doing well.

0:47.9

I'm doing well. Yeah. We're starting a little late because tell them tell the audience what

2:00.9

2:18.3
