Andy Blitz is a standup comic and was a writer and performer for Late Night with Conan O’Brien for many years, worked on the shows Human Giant, Review, Important Things with Demetri Martin, and many other projects.

We talked about his legendary Late Night sketch, “The Slipnutz” (link below) and opening for Slipknot, his early days of comedy, what it was like to work with Conan, whether he thinks about his comedy as having a purpose, why going to the Emmys is boring (and why skipping them while pulling a prank makes them more interesting), and much more.
