>>I FEEL LIKE THAT'S A SILLY QUESTION OF COURSE WE'RE READY FOR THE WEEKEND. >>I WAS READY LAST WEEKEND. FOR THIS WEEKEND. >>I WAS READY ON MONDAY THE WEEK STARTED AND I WAS LIKE YES, LET'S GET IT GOING. SO, WELL, WE HAVE A FANTASTIC STAND UP COMEDIAN THAT'S COMING RIGHT HERE TO LAS VEGAS FOR TWO NIGHTS. TAYLOR TOMLINSON IS BRINGING ALL THE STORIES FROM HER DRAMATIC LIFE HERE. PEOPLE ARE SCARED TO GO TO THERAPY BECAUSE THEY THINK IT'S SOMEONE SITTING IN A CHAIR GOING, YOU SUCK, BUT IT'S NOT. >>IT'S YOU IN A CHAIR GOING I SUCK >>OH WOW, SHE SAID SHE LOVES STAND UP COMEDY EVEN AS SHE'S NOW HOSTING A LATE NIGHT COMEDY SHOW. THIS LATEST TOUR IS FOCUSING ON RELIGION AND HER EXPERIENCE GROWING UP, AND SHE'S CALLING IT THE YOU SAVE ME TOUR AND DIGS DEEP INTO HER UPBRINGING. >>IS FULL OF LAUGHS, AND YOU CAN GET TICKETS AT TAYLOR TOMLINSON COMEDY.COM. THOSE SHOWS ARE TOMORROW NIGHT AND SATURDAY NIGHT, SO GET YOUR TICKETS FAST. THEY'RE GOING TO SELL OUT. IT'S ALL GOING TO BE INSIDE THE ENCORE THEATER AT THE WYNN LAS VEGAS SO, SHE HAS A MASSIVE FOLLOWING WORLDWIDE CHLOE. SHE HAS MORE THAN 7 MILLION FOLLOWERS ACROSS MAJOR PLATFORMS. THAT'S WILD. CAN YOU. IT'S HARD GETTING 7000 FOLLOWERS ACROSS PLATFORMS. >>YEAH, YEAH. 7 MILLION. IT'S A STRUGGLE. YEAH. IT'S CLEARLY EASY FOR HER BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE HER FOR A REASON. WE LOVE HER BECAUSE SHE'S FUNNY, BUT SHE HOPES ALL THOSE PEOPLE WILL SHOW UP FOR THE PERFORMANCES. AND SHE ACTUALLY EVEN TALKED TO ONE OF HER MANY FANS, OUR EVAN SCHREIBER, ABOUT THE JOYS OF GETTING ON STAGE AND HE STARTS BY ASKING TAYLOR, WHAT'S THE TOUGHEST THING ABOUT STAND UP COMEDY? RIGHT NOW >>I THINK RIGHT NOW IS JUST REMEMBER THE ORDER OF MY JOKES BECAUSE THIS IS STILL A NEW HOUR FOR ME. AND SO I'M NOT QUITE COMPLETELY LOCKED IN LIKE AUTOPILOT, LIKE I WILL BE IN PROBABLY A COUPLE MONTHS HERE SO I THINK I'M JUST NOW GETTING INTO LIKE REALLY HAVING IT LIKE MUSCLE MEMORY MEMORIZED. BUT NOT QUITE THERE YET. SO THAT'S, THAT'S THE HARDEST THING I'M DOING RIGHT AT THE MOMENT. >>I'M VERY MUCH A COMEDY NERD, SO I'M FASCINATED BY THE PROCESS. SO WHEN DO YOU START WRITING? WHEN DO YOU START ORGANIZING WHEN DO YOU SET IT IN STONE, OR IS IT NEVER REALLY SET IN STONE? >>THE WHOLE SET, THAT'S KIND OF WHAT I LOVE ABOUT STAND UP IS IT'S NEVER REALLY SET IN STONE. I MEAN YOU'RE CHANGING THINGS UP UNTIL THE SECOND YOU RECORD IT FOR NETFLIX OR HBO OR WHOEVER YOU DO A SPECIAL WITH. SO, I MEAN, I'M ALWAYS TINKERING WITH IT SO YOU NEVER GET BORED, WHICH IS WHAT I REALLY LIKE, >>CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG. YOU STARTED DOING STAND UP PRETTY YOUNG 16 YEARS OLD. DO I HAVE THAT RIGHT? HUM HOW HAS THE PROCESS CHANGED SINCE THEN, WHEN YOU WERE WRITING JOKES AS A 16 YEAR OLD AND PERFORMING AS AS A 16 YEAR OLD? NOW TO WHERE YOU ARE NOW >>WELL, YOU DON'T HAVE HOMEWORK ANYMORE, SO THAT'S PRETTY COOL. I HAVE A LOT MORE TIME TO FOCUS ON COMEDY, ONLY NOW THAT I DON'T HAVE TO WRITE ANY ESSAYS, YEAH. I MEAN I THINK WHEN YOU'RE 16, LIKE, YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO LEARN HOW TO BE A PERSON, SO TRYING TO LEARN ANY OTHER SKILLS ON TOP OF JUST EXISTING AS AN ADULT, IS A PRETTY TALL ORDER. SO I THINK STANDUP WAS VERY HARD WHEN I WAS 16, AND NOW IT'S A LOT MORE FUN >>ALL RIGHT, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE SPECIALS. IF WE CAN BECAUSE YOU GOT THREE BIG NETFLIX STAND UP SPECIALS THAT ARE OUT. RIGHT. YOU RELEASED THAT FIRST ONE SORT OF RIGHT START AT THE, AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PANDEMIC. I THINK IT CAME OUT MARCH 2020. QUARTER LIFE CRISIS COMES OUT, WHAT'S GOING THROUGH YOUR MIND WHEN IT COMES OUT AND EVERYBODY'S HOME BECAUSE I ASSUME AND CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG IN THE PROCESS HERE. I ASSUME YOU PUT OUT THAT SPECIAL AND THEN YOU GO TOUR OFF THE POPULARITY OF THAT SPECIAL BUT CLUBS WEREN'T EXACTLY OPEN TO GO TOURS. SO WHAT'S GOING THROUGH YOUR MIND IF YOU CAN TAKE ME BACK? >>I THOUGHT I MISSED THE WINDOW. I THOUGHT, WOW, I GOT THIS BIG OPPORTUNITY TO FILM A SPECIAL, WHICH IS WHAT I ALWAYS WANTED AND NOW I CAN'T TOUR. AND BY THE TIME WE CAN TOUR AGAIN, IF THAT DAY EVER COMES BECAUSE OF THE TIME WHO KNEW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN TO LIVE ENTERTAINMENT IN GENERAL? POST COVID, I I JUST THOUGHT BY THE TIME EVERYTHING'S OPEN AGAIN, NOBODY'S GOING TO REMEMBER THIS SPECIAL. AND THANKFULLY I WAS WRONG. SO EVERYBODY'S AT HOME WATCHING RIGHT? EXACTLY. WELL, I THINK THAT WAS SOMETHING ONE OF MY AGENTS SAID AT ONE POINT. HE WAS LIKE, I MEAN, EVERYONE'S TRAPPED AT HOME WATCHING STUFF. SO THEY'RE THEY'RE TAKING CHANCES ON THINGS THEY WOULD NEVER EVEN CLICK ON. SO IT'S ACTUALLY GREAT AND AS GROSS AS THAT SENTIMENT IS I THINK HE WAS PROBABLY RIGHT. AND IT PROBABLY DID HELP THE SPECIAL GET SEEN MORE. NOW. >>NOW YOU'RE HOSTING AFTER MIDNIGHT YOU PREFER THAT? OVER. STAND UP. CAN YOU COMPARE THE TWO A LITTLE BIT OR. >>NO, NO, I MEAN, I DON'T PREFER ANYTHING. OVER. STAND UP. STAND UP IS ALWAYS MY FIRST PRIORITY. AND I NEVER WOULD HAVE TAKEN THIS JOB IF IT MEANT I COULDN'T DO STAND UP ANYMORE. LIKE BEING A LATE NIGHT HOST WAS NEVER A GOAL OF MINE, BECAUSE MOST LATE NIGHT HOSTS THEY'RE FILMING MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY OR MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY, AS OPPOSED TO MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY, WHICH IS WHAT WE DO. SO I INITIALLY TOOK THAT FIRST MEETING LIKE, HEY GUYS, NICE TO MEET YOU, BUT I CAN'T DO IT BECAUSE I HAVE TO TOUR. AND THEY WERE LIKE, WELL, TECHNICALLY WITH THIS SCHEDULE, YOU COULD DO THE SHOW AND TOUR. SO, YEAH, IT'S BEEN IT'S BEEN A NICE SURPRISE THAT I AM EVEN ABLE TO DO BOTH, >>FORGIVE ME FOR KEEPING TALLY HERE, BUT I'M GOING TO, YOU HAVE ABOUT 2.7 MILLION FOLLOWERS ON TIKTOK. 1.7 MILLION ON INSTAGRAM, 1.1 MILLION YOUTUBE SUBSCRIBERS, 1.8 MILLION ON FACEBOOK DOES IT GET EXHAUSTING? >>NO, BECAUSE I HAVE A REALLY GREAT SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER NAMED JANIE WHO HANDLES A LOT OF IT. SHOUT OUT JANIE! SHOUT OUT TO JANIE. I MEAN, YOU WERE LIKE, YOU HAVE 1.8 MILLION ON FACEBOOK. I WAS LIKE, OH, I HAD NO IDEA. LIKE I DON'T LOOK AT FACEBOOK AT ALL. I DON'T LOOK AT YOUTUBE AT ALL I MOSTLY STICK TO LIKE, TIKTOK AND INSTAGRAM. BUT YEAH, SHE HANDLES A LOT OF IT NOW, WHICH IS MADE IT LESS OVERWHELMING BECAUSE I'M NOT HANDLING IT BY MYSELF. >>YOU SAY OVERWHELMING WITH NUMBERS LIKE THAT AND WITH WITH A FOLLOWING LIKE THAT, IS IT A IS IT CONCERNING? IS IT EXHAUSTING? IS IT FUN? IS IT FUN >>I THINK ALL OF THOSE THINGS LIKE I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T THINK OF IT. I THINK THERE'S JUST SO MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE A BUNCH OF FOLLOWERS NOW THAT I DON'T FEEL LIKE, OH, I'M ONE OF THE ONLY ONES WITH OVER A MILLION FOLLOWERS. LIKE, THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE ONLINE THAT HAVE THESE HUGE FOLLOWINGS, MUCH BIGGER THAN MINE, THAT I BRING UP TO FRIENDS OF MINE. AND THEY'RE LIKE, I'VE NEVER HEARD OF THAT PERSON IN MY LIFE. SO YOU YOU CAN'T GET LIKE TOO BIG IN THE HEAD ABOUT YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWING BECAUSE WHO'S TO SAY THAT THAT'S GOING TO TRANSLATE TO REAL LIFE OR TICKET SALES, LIKE TICKET SALES ARE WHAT I CARE ABOUT. >>THE TOUR IS CALLED THE SAVE ME TOUR. YOU, YOU'VE GOT THAT CROSS IN THE T, IN THE PROMO, TAYLOR IS RELIGION FUNNY? >>I THINK RELIGION IS HILARIOUS. I THINK IT'S SO FUNNY. I GREW UP IN CHURCH. I APPRECIATED SO MUCH ABOUT GROWING UP IN CHURCH. I ALSO THINK IT'S VERY EASY TO MAKE FUN OF SO MUCH ABOUT GROWING UP IN CHURCH. I HAVE VERY COOL CHRISTIAN FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE ABLE TO LAUGH AT THEMSELVES. MY UNCLE'S A PASTOR. HE JUST CAME AND SAW THE SHOW IN SAN FRANCISCO AND WAS LIKE EVERYTHING YOU SAID WAS TRUE. LIKE I, I THINK THAT IN THE PAST I'VE DONE JOKES ABOUT GROWING UP IN CHURCH THAT WERE A LITTLE MORE, RESENTFUL AND I THINK THIS HOUR IS ACTUALLY TALKING A LOT ABOUT CHURCH AND LIKE, YES THERE'S SOME RESENTMENT ABOUT HOW SPECIFICALLY I WAS RAISED, BUT IT'S ALSO LIKE, I THINK COMING FROM A MORE LOVING PLACE AND I'VE BEEN WAITING A LONG TIME TO SORT OF DIVE INTO ALL OF THAT. AND THAT'S WHAT THIS HOUR IS. IT'S NOT ENTIRELY ABOUT THAT. THERE'S ALSO STILL LIKE DATING JOKES AND A LOT OF JOKES ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT I WANT TO HAVE KIDS AND THINGS I'VE HEARD ABOUT HAVING KIDS AND CHILDBIRTH. LIKE, THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER JOKES AS WELL, BUT A GOOD CHUNK OF IT IS ABOUT GROWING UP IN CHURCH AND I WANTED PEOPLE COMING TO THE SHOWS TO BE AWARE OF THAT. SO NOBODY FEELS BAMBOOZLED >>WHAT CAN PEOPLE EXPECT WITH THE SHOWS? THIS WEEKEND? >>ALL OF WHAT I JUST SAID, I THINK I MEAN, HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE A GOOD TIME AND IF YOU DON'T, HEY, YOU'RE IN VEGAS BABY. YOU CAN SALVAGE THAT NIGHT. THE SHOW IS OVER AT 930, SO YOU GOT THE WHOLE REST OF THE NIGHT TO TURN THIS AROUND. THAT'S GOING TO SALVAGE. >>YOU CAN SALVAGE THE NIGHT, OR IT COULD GET MUCH WORSE FOR YOU. >>YEAH, EITHER WAY, OR YOU CAN PUT IT IN PERSPECTIVE AND GO, THAT WAS ACTUALLY THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE EVENING. >>OH MY GOSH. SHE IS JUST AN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT. I THINK I ACTUALLY FOLLOW HER ON INSTAGRAM TOO. SHE IS HILARIOUS AND I WILL FIND MYSELF JUST LIKE GIGGLING AT MY PHONE FOR LIKE A GOOD 40 MINUTES BECAUSE SHE IS JUST A HOOT AND A REMINDER IF YOU ARE INTRIGUED BY THAT INTERVIEW, YOU CAN GET TICKETS BY GOING TO TAYLOR TOMLINSON COMEDY.COM. THE SHOWS ARE TOMORROW NIGHT AND SATURDAY NIGHT. IT'S HAPPENING INSIDE THE ENCORE THEATER AT WYNN LAS VEGAS. >>GET THOSE TICKETS NOW. THEY'RE GOING TO SELL OUT FAST. >>I KNOW, AND SHE'S, I MEAN, SHE'S HILARIOUS. THAT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD ONE. AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER FOLLOW UP. I WONDER IF THAT'S WH
