• Reviewing "SNL50: The Anniversary Special"
    Feb 17 2025

    Our first on-the-go podcast features the two of us sharing our wildly out-of-order thoughts on an overstuffed special that was less of a celebration than we might have anticipated and more an "extra-stuff episode with every star you expected and also a half-dozen you definitely didn't".

    Listen to find out our favorite performance, stand-out jokes, and one to seven conspiracy theories about what certain sketches, songs, and notables absences might say about the state of the show.

    We also talk plans for the rest of the season and beyond for this podcast.

    Enjoy!

  • Saturday Night Live, Season 50 Episode 11: Dave Chappelle
    Jan 19 2025

    Ryan and Mike are back with a look at Dave Chappelle's latest hosting gig.

    As a programming note: We are trying to revive the old feed from our previous time hosting. In theory, we should be able to do so. We have attempted to post this episode on that feed while we work out the kinks.

    The goal is to have one feed that reaches the most people with the least amount of headaches for all involved. Once that's settled, we will have one feed with this season's content along with the 100+ episodes we recorded during the 2010s.

    Thanks for your patience, as Ryan isn't a podcast producing expert and may screw it up once or twice before the dust settles.
