Two brothers get together each week to discuss the long running sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live, one a nerdy expert on all things SNL, the other a cynical casual viewer with much less love for its lore. Every week we recap the current episode (or classic eps during off weeks), discuss various issues related to the show and its history, and try to stump the expert with some SNL trivia.

As you're gearing up for spooky season we watched the spookiest episode in Saturday Night Live history. It's the infamous Season 7 episode hosted by Donald Pleasence with musical guest Fear. This episode aired on Halloween night and the show took full advantage of that. We get a British soldier sawing his own leg off, a woman cleaning up the mess f…

By popular demand we watched a "classic" episode of SNL from Season 4 hosted by Frank Zappa. This episode is notorious for being terrible and Zappa has been on many Worst Host Ever lists. Turns out it's all true. This sucked. Zappa doesn't give a shit during the whole episode, every sketch is way too long, and it's a pretty dismal affair all around…

This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched Thomas And The Magic Railroad from 2000 starring 17-time SNL host Alec Baldwin as Mr. Conductor. So this was a huge mistake. Turns out this movie isn't interested in helping you understand what the hell is going on so we spend the majority of the podcast simply confused by the lore of magical trains who d…

And we're back with yet another installment of our award winning segment ...And We're Back! where we take a deep dive into an SNL recurring character and watch all their appearances. This week we did something a little different. Instead of watching a recurring character we watched a selection of SNL sketches where Jimmy Fallon adorably broke chara…

This week on Saturday Night Jive (actually almost a year ago on Saturday Night Jive) we watched the 2004 comedy White Chicks starring SNL alum Damon Wayans.....'s brothers Shawn and Marlon as horrifying creatures that we are expected to believe can pass as rich white women. This was intended to be a "lost episode" of the podcast just because I thou…

This week on Saturday Night Jive we finally watched B.A.P.S from 1997 starring one-time SNL host Halle Berry, Martin Landau, one-time SNL host Bernie Mac, and of course everyone's favorite white rapper/stand-up comic Barry Sobel. At long last, Ben's dream came true and we watched this random 90's comedy. Surprisingly it's not as cringy as one might…

We lost a legend recently and this week on Saturday Night Jive we watched the Bob Newhart episode of SNL from the disastrous Season 20. In the height of SNL's "bad boy" era, they brought on the television icon to class up the joint a little bit. What results is an all-around solid and fun show, while maybe not the downright classic that George reme…

And we're back with yet another installment of our award winning segment ...And We're Back! where we take a deep dive into an SNL recurring character and watch all their appearances.

This week on Saturday Night Jive We watched Meatballs Part 2 because Bill Murray was in the first Meatballs. We've never seen the first Meatballs movie but that doesn't matter since this movie was never intended as a sequel to Meatballs. It was just a movie that resembled Meatballs a lot (we suppose as we've never seen it) that featured a character…

358: "Robin Duke Only Exists To Titillate Me Sexually" - SNL S08E06 - Robert Blake / Kenny Loggins
This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched the illusive episode of SNL hosted by alleged murderer Robert Blake. Was it worth the wait? Absolutely not. But could it ever live up to our expectations? Let's talk about it. Also, how frigging hot is Mary Gross? This episode has Robert Blake punching Julia Louis-Dreyfus, a Little Rascals reunion, homoph…

This week Ben had the option to pick anything he wanted to watch and he chose the Jeremy Irons episode of Saturday Night Live with musical guest Fishbone. Why did he do this? Because he likes Fishbone. So, what did we learn? Maybe you shouldn't pick an old episode of SNL for the musical guest because this is one of the most forgettable episodes eve…

The Other Sister directed by our good friend Garry Marshall and starring Juliette Lewis and Giovanni Ribisi as two mentally challenged adults who find love is a movie that shouldn't have been made. We shouldn't have watched it. In fact, this movie killed the podcast for a little bit as it sent George down an existential rabbit hole where he questio…

Ummmm, this movie exists. It's about a bigfoot who plays basketball. Ben is insane and liked it. George is realistic and thinks it's a crappy TV movie starring a guy in a cheap looking monkey suit. You can check it out on YouTube, don't watch the whole thing, or any of it. No SNL cast members in Big And Hairy from 1998 but Enjoy! Full archive of al…

Get ready for the most magical time of your life as Academy Award winner Javier Bardem dances with a CGI crocodile voiced by Shawn Mendes in the delightful Lyle Lyle Crocodile also featuring SNL alum Ego Nwodim.

This week on Saturday Night Jive we're talking some television pilots that never got picked up to see a full season that feature some SNL alums.

What a pleasure it's been to reconnect with each other, our love for Rick and Michonne, Andy and Danai and you all. We've never had a tv viewing experience like this one and we doubt we ever will again. How lucky for us that we only support what? Winners. Yeah, we had to talk about the episode as a whole because that's what we were presented with, …

Chick Flicks is back in real time! In this episode, McKenzie and Bridget tackle another practical effects masterpiece, John Carpenter's The Thing (1982). Crawling spider-heads, exploding chests, and cosmic horror canines have helped make The Thing a cult classic, despite being a commercial and critical flop upon its release. Listen to hear us talk …

We love a man who makes his intentions clear and loves his wife using anything and everything that's made available to him. Michonne, we tip our hat to you.

It's been said many times on this podcast, George loves him some Mary Gross. For all you doubters out there, he proved why by forcing Ben to watch an episode of Saturday Night Live from Season 9 hosted by Michael Douglas.

Aren't you glad that you're alive to witness a time such as this?

This show just keeps delivering! What a feeling to be excited by The Walking Dead content again. We almost don't know what to do with ourselves! The closest Michonne can bring herself to being a B is an A-. Some lamps cannot be hidden under a bushel! Meanwhile, the past and the present comes crashing into Rick as he both can't stay away from Michon…

Do you like Twin Peaks? Then you'll be utterly confused by Wild Palms almost as confused as SNL alum James Belushi who apparently didn't understand the script so just showed up on set and read his lines. Can't blame you, Jim. This is an indecipherable piece of nonsense. So the story is that ABC wanted to have another weird show to replace Twin Peak…

Two episodes down already! While last week was all about how Rick spent his seven years away from his family, this week picks up right where The Walking Dead left Michonne -- helping two survivors hop along to catch up with their Oregon Trail community, and meeting an immediate ride-or-die friend in a man named Nat. As if Michonne wasn't going to h…

Hello friends. It is a pure miracle we've gotten this far, in both the #Richonne fandom and also us, Melissa and Kia, remembering how any of this stuff works after a Rick Grimes length hiatus away from it all.

We're digging into the Rob Schneider bucket once again this week as we watched Necessary Roughness from 1991 featuring the Robmeister calling plays for a football team full of underdogs.

It's been a while! We recorded this episode a year ago and are finally getting it out in the world.

It's Ben's pick this week on Saturday Night Jive and since he's not bound by the rules of picking movies that relate to SNL we watched the Don Ho classic Joe's Apartment from 1996.

This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched the John Leguizamo classic The Pest from 1997.

This week on Saturday Night Jive we're watching another old ass episode of SNL. From Season 24 it's the episode hosted by Ray Romano with musical guest The Coors. Why are we watching this one?

Matt LeBlanc is actually the only Friends star who …
