Fin Taylor is an English stand-up comedian and podcaster.

Early life

[edit]

Taylor attended Abingdon School.[1]

Career

[edit]

Taylor began gigging in 2008.[2] He first took a solo show to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2014.[3] His three shows in successive years, Whitey McWhiteface, Lefty Tighty Righty Loosey, and When Harassy Met Sally,[4] led The Scotsman to call him "one of the most discussed, and critically lauded comedian of recent Edinburgh Fringes".[5] His comedic style is often described as "provocative" and antagonistic, though he has earned praise for his ability to "be both edgy and woke within the same joke."[6][7]

Since 2024, Taylor has co-hosted a history podcast with Horatio Gould, called Fin vs History.[8]
