Taylor Tomlinson

[upbeat music]

Hi, my name is Taylor Tomlinson, and I feel gobsmacked about being Conan O'Brien's friend.

Uh, gobsmacked is good, right? Mm.

My second choice was flummoxed.

She has a fantastic new book, uh, out titled Actually, Never Mind, which is out now.

Uh, it is a real joy for me when she stops by.

[upbeat music] Taylor Tomlinson, welcome.

I will never forget the day I first met you.

Yeah.

Taylor Tomlinson.

I mean, it's, I mean, God, oh, that it were that simple.

Taylor Tomlinson gave a really good, has a really good standup bit about her.

She was diagnosed bipolar and she's like, look, it's just more information I have about myself.

And here's the thing.

They're so good.

And then freaking Taylor Tomlinson.

Dude, Taylor was great.

I know.

I want them to feel connected.

Taylor Tomlinson said, Nobody works harder than Kelsey.

She's one of the best comedians working today, and she only gets better and better with each new special.

Husband Chad Daniels said, It makes me feel like I'm not doing much.

She has the ability to laugh at herself as well.

I missed loudly accusing her of stealing when we were at stores while paying at the register.

Jim was impressed by how Kelsey Cook handled the rise of her buddy Taylor Tomlinson.

Jim said there wasn't an ounce of jealousy or bitterness, just pure joy for the success her friend was having.

And I think that the arts in general are that magic trick.

If you look at a comedian on stage, you know, look at Taylor Tomlinson and you'll be like, this is the funniest human.

Every single thing she says is funny.

That's the illusion that's created.

than baby

right I didn't get dead vibes I mean I don't know she's not as funny as Taylor Tomlinson so like I didn't think dead mom I thought just like divorced or whatever

although I did when I broke that potential scenario down watch your eyes and it was the same as my friend's eyes two weekends ago when she was like I hate the song I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus who wants a song about an affair and I was like no no no the dad is dressed up as Santa and and realized that she was 40 years old and had never considered that as a possibility.

Or

And then the final...

A modern comic is Taylor Tomlinson.

She does a lot of simile and metaphor subtext.

I've done so much work on myself in the last five years.
