Andy Blitz Takes A Taxi To Toronto | Late Night with Conan O’Brien

[@stoneseabolt]

That driver who actually took him all the way there is a legend.

[@KilgoreOnDrugs]

@shutup well many turned him down though... So still a legend 🙂

[@pengjunjin2642]

That driver is a sihik religion,best people on the world

[@kulvirkang7953]

Sikhs do it

[@asahel980]

lol obviously he was hired way before this happened. also I believe its not allowed for cab drivers to take paying passengers outside New york or even the USA , unless the cab is being used as a private vehicle . hell the cab may have been just a props not a true cab and the cab driver is just an actor.

[@ShadyLurker84]

I like how the cab driver was like, “you want to drive to Toronto, I can take a vacation to my cousins.”

[@CapnSlipp]

I like how they make the 8 hour drive from NYC to Albany to Toronto look like a multi-day trip.

[@twentyoneHz]

canadians know this is a leave at lunch, have time to have a late night snack before bed kinda drive

[@Soloman_Gumball]

Tractor trailer drivers are required to have so much off time. I'm too lazy to google if licensed taxi drivers are the same, but I would hope they are.

Andy Blitz is the funniest guy that no one's ever heard of, he could seriously have his own show. Everything on Conan that he was in was absolute gold.

[@davenrai]

The conversation at 7:00: Guess his cousin has a son? or friend? who is in classes and he says, "I've sent him two messages. he's probably in class. So first you have to go there and then back?" Happy: "No actually, I just have to drive him there and then I'm free" Cousin: "Drop him off and then come here"

Why? Because the passenger can be crazy killer or because it's bad for health to drive long stretches?

[@Jebu911]

Well it was obviously for a tv show and gettin 1000 dollars for 2 days driving is pretty good salary

[@dapinderjitsingh]

na he is not saying it, he is just asking if he is not going back (to ny) cause he asked if the driver would come back after dropping off andy, cause one of his relative is not home so he asked about him and he said he has gone somewhere and hasn’t responded to messages twice he can meet him after he come back dropping andy

Andy Blitz must have been Conan's favourite show writer because he flew him to India to talk to NBC tech support, let him have a roadtrip from NYC to Toronto and even furnished his NYC apartment.

[@brette6854]

[@Natalie-ox7xm]

I have somehow _never_ seen this, or at least don't remember it. Just brilliant. I also loved when Conan "helped" him find an apartment.

[@CinemaDemocratica]

There was a moment where one of them -- Andy, I suppose -- got in a shower, and he was totally naked despite the fact that the realtor was there. One of the funniest moments of the sketch but I seriously doubt that would fly now, and with good reason.

[@afififadzil1196]

The fact that he stopped off in Mississauga LMAO

[@vanessachurst7031]

Such a good dude for driving. I hope you gave him a big tip!

[@anileated]

Driver in the scene at 1:50 spot on negotiates by the book: repeat what you heard and pause, let the silence squeeze more out of your counterpart while watching body/facial language. I wonder if they had to warn drivers not to look in the camera beforehand to make this look candid enough

[@quikstep69]

Best Andy Blitz skit was when he went to India to fix the pop-ups on his computer

[@peacefrog5449]

Hilarious! My favorite :-)) His deadpan totally is as good (or better) than Jordan. Was a big fan of his since forever! Now all the young kids will find out his genius...Hope Andy knows we still love him!

Andy Blitz never had a bad appearance on Conan. One of the true highlights of that era.

[@SuperLeica1]

Fun fact: This taxi trip was a good 700 kms/420 mls. John Cleese once took a cab from Oslo, Norway to Brussels, Belgium. That´s about 1500 kms/1000 mls. Norwegian Viking taxidrivers are tough.

back in the late 90's my friends and I would regularly cab from Kingston to Toronto to hit raves. The drivers that were willing to make these trips were usually themselves quite the trip. My personal favorite was the woman that dropped 3 hits of acid and waited for us in the parking lot until after the party was finished, fastest ride back to Kingston ever.

Jello has pork derivatives. So it's off limits for many religions. Found that out in the prison kitchen.
