Sarah Silverman shared how Conan O’Brien helped resurrect her career after being fired from “Saturday Night Live” in her early 20s.

Silverman joined the show’s 19th season, which aired from 1993 to 1994. She was let go after just one year.

During an appearance on Howard Stern’s Sirius XM show on Thursday, Silverman described “SNL” as “magical” and “amazing,” but said there are some very clear downsides.

“There is just something about it where they just have this energy that puts you in your place where you feel like a piece of shit and you’re terrified,” Silverman said.

“And, the anxiety — it’s very hard to be zen and chill there,” she said, telling Stern that “Conan was the best thing for me.”

“His first year [on his show] was my first and only year at ‘SNL,’” she said. “And he put me on all the time, you know, even after I was fired ― all the time. And that was the start for me.”

“And I wouldn’t have been able to be on Conan without ‘SNL,’” Silverman added. “It was an incredible kind of boot camp experience.”

The experience was so incredible, the “Maestro” actor said she was “totally thrown for a loop when I was fired.”

“It never occurred to me that was possible,” Silverman said. “But, I think it’s definitely for the best.”

During an appearance on HuffPost Live in 2013, the actor shared that she “was hired at SNL and almost immediately fired,” and joked that she knows why.

“I wrote not a single funny sketch, so that might have something to do with it too” Silverman quipped of her time on the show, adding that “the fact that Lorne Michaels saw anything in me at that age” was “impressive.”

“I’m getting over it though, it’s been 20 years,” Silverman joked.

The comedian would later come back to host the show in October 2014, during the 40th season of “Saturday Night Live.”
