  • Saturday Night Live - Part 2 (Big Hats Are Funny)
    Feb 27 2024

    Uncover the comedic evolution of Saturday Night Live post-2000 with us, as we reflect on the iconic sketches and unforgettable performances that shaped an era. Lend us your ears for a trip down memory lane, where we'll celebrate the sheer brilliance of Tina Fey, the first woman to crack the glass ceiling of SNL's head writer's room, and marvel at the presidential parodies that defined a nation's humor in turbulent times. From Daryl Hammond's trailblazing impersonations to Jimmy Fallon's contagious charisma, we're toasting the talents that have made SNL unforgettable.

    Join the conversation about the stars who journeyed beyond the SNL stage to leave their mark on the silver screen, bringing us comedy classics like "Wayne's World" and "Elf." As we relish in the comedic prowess of Seth Meyers, and Kenan Thompson's legendary tenure, we also tip our hats to the likes of Amy Poehler and Kristen Wiig, who kept us laughing until our sides ached. We're peeling back the curtain to reveal Lorne Michaels' genius for creating a comedy empire, and why the show continues to be a launchpad for Hollywood's funniest.

    Finally, we pay homage to the unsung heroes of the writers' room, spotlighting the genius of former writers-turned-stars like John Mulaney. We'll dissect the critical role they play in SNL's weekly wit, discussing the importance of fair compensation in light of the recent Writers Guild of America strike. Our grand finale? Drafting the ultimate SNL dream team and reliving our top sketches—this is an episode for those who cherish the laughter that SNL has injected into our lives for decades.
