Hello, flies. Come in. We're going to be more official now. Hello, everybody.

Yeah. Welcome to the show. I'm David Spade. And I'm Dan Glarny. We have Andy Sandberg, who's, people have been asked about it, about getting to have mom because he's one of the greats of SNL that's been around. There's a certain pocket there that he had a great run on, and he went to Brooklyn 99. And we talk about that, we talk about hotel Transylvania, we talk about all his videos he did. The process and how we got on Sarenite Live. His experiences with Larn, We asked him some questions. Maybe go some places you wouldn't expect.

Or you wouldn't like. David had some nice rejoinders about the vanity fair party. That's just the bonus part of the episode. I do have a celebrity crush on a Cape Blanchette. I will say that. Cape Blanchette. Yeah. She's great. She got it. She got it. Brad Pitt in a headlock at the Oscars backstage.

I heard. We'll expand on that lie. But Adam Sandberg, very friendly, nice guy, funny. We talk about Mark Wahlberg. We talk about Dick and a box. Yep. Talk about the Lonely Island stuff, pop star of the movie. And he's just got a lot going and he was super fun, good mood.

Yep. I loved it. I had a great time with him. He came in, a lot of people don't come in. He came in. He came in and gambled with his health by being around 280. And great time. It's end up. Great time.

So here he is. He's Amber. Adam Sandberg. Oh, shit. Andy. I did it twice. Fuck me. He did say.

He did say. He said it happens all the time. Even his wife calls him Adam Sandberg. Let's start off. Well, we'll just keep this, of course. I mistake Adam Sandberg with Adam. Andy Samberg with Adam Sandler. Say that three times fast. I'm a steak Adam Zhang, right?

No Adam Sandler. And no, I know Adam. Andy Samberg three times. And blah, talk about, talk about, talk about. Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg. Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg. And we'll give away one joke.

He said he was doing stand up and they messed his name up so bad. Adam Sandler. Adam Sandler. Andy Sandler. Adam Sandler. We'll give away one joke. He said he was doing stand up. And they messed his name up so bad. They just introduced him as Adam Sandler. And it went, what the fuck? And he crushed as Sandler. Hobathaba. What are you doing?

What? He did kind of the same thing where you were on the show and then you went to a sitcom pretty quickly, was it right the next season? Yeah, and I mean, I didn't want to. Yeah. And then it was just, Mike sure asked and I was like, oh shit. I saw what he did with Polar and I was like, it's good. Yeah, I mean, if you, I sort of went in...

Polar, Polar doesn't go down for any bad, love any Polar. She doesn't want? She doesn't go down for anybody. What does that mean? I don't know, I just said it as a joke. She's powerful. She's a great cop. No, when you leave the show, it's very scary.

And then they said, which I used to say, was you get like one kind of free shot, you know, like if you jump off the show, they go, do you want to, back then it was a little more going on in that world like they said, do you want to do your own sitcom? Oh, yeah. Like Paulie Shore got one, you know, you get one,

but it's very hard, it's riskier, and then just shoot me was already shot. It was already at the upfronts, and they picked it, and then Laura Sanjacom was out there to announce it in the night before they pulled her and said, it's just we need one more thing to this so it's so weird so I got to see the whole pilot. Oh wow and then the guy was Larry Sanders which I loved and. The writer Steve love a 10 and then I'm never heard you want to add. If we just add more in there a lot more.

That's why I didn't know idea about that. Yeah, so I said, I got to see it, which is helped. And I go, oh, I'm coming from the most competitive, tough as funniest people in the world, not that they weren't funny, but they're all actors. And I go, oh, there's no one like me here. You know, I had a Dana there and I had everyone better than me. Thank you, David. Yeah.

And so, I'm saying, because he's great. And you go, wow, when I'm not in a room with Sandler rock Farley my god Dana, then I go these guys are just great actors and funny, but I there's not one like me exactly I could sort of jump out George Seagull said it's four actors in a cartoon You were the fonts you guys it was kind of cool that it's an observation. Brooklyn, what was the name of yours again? Just shoot me. I'm sorry.

You guys also went, you were the stars, you were the Fonz's, but you had an ensemble. Yeah, that's the fun. And so that's not like hanging out in a movie, you can't do it, you can do it on live streaming now. If no one sees it, no one cares. But in those days, like, movies, you're hung out there, but I thought you, you have to go through it.

You have to go through it. And it was like you, and your those days, like, movies, you're hung out there, but I thought you'd be able to see it. And it was like you and your experience, I think I did know you were, is it a CBS Radford, right? Yeah. So you shot it. Same stage. So you got into it and you,

someone has it lately, but you jumped in, you did your best because once you say yes to something, right? Yeah, you got to try and make it good. But did you write on that and you're gonna be writing just casually, but you just leave on. Yeah, no, I never, I never was like in the room or have my name on a stick Great though, but when you go

You get stuff anyway and it works anyway. That's the craziest feeling coming from S and L Is having someone hand you great jokes and you're like wait, I get to just have these and then everyone thinks I thought of them And then they go how do we make these better for you? I don't know. We were both stand-ups. That was a revolution for me if Bonnie Turner gave me the church lay I could say this. Wow. Awesome. Yeah, it's true. It does happen in SNL.

It takes a couple of years before someone gives you a great joke, though. Well, he came out of the gate huge. Thank you, David. It's true. This is my favorite podcast. I had to work a little bit, but you get on there. He came out of the gate and revolutionized Saturday's live. But we can get to that thing.

We'll get to that, because that's... In the live show, though, I did not come out of the gate strong. But you revolutionized the thing, right? YouTube comes out, SNL's still going. Yes. And then you came in with your buddies and it went, boo, it went. It was for too much as timing, I like to say,

with the YouTube stuff, because, you know, yeah. It started with like Albert Brooks doing short films and McCay did short films and it was like a long history of it at the show that we all are vision. Exactly. Shiller vision is great. Even like the Eddie Murphy stuff, doing like White like me where he's like walking around town. Like there's always cool pre tapes.

We just were like, we're going to do him every week. It's hard to know. It's an old digital even got a name every week. It's hard though. That's an old digital, even got a name. It's like an idea. Yeah, and they, it was first was lazy Sunday if I'm correct. It was the first one people liked. Do you think you blew up YouTube or YouTube blew you up? I think we are responsible for YouTube

and they owe us a lot of time. I knew a guy was trying to do YouTube and he was like six months late. He had all the technology that he always do. He was gonna do a YouTube. Yeah, YouTube and then YouTube came out and then I was with him and he was trying to think of a name. He had Grupper and then a friend of mine renamed it Crackle

in Sony Bob. Yeah, I remember those. But YouTube is such a perfect name, like DocuSign, you have to sign Documents. I have to, I own DocuSign. I shouldn't be promoting my portfolio. I mean, I interact with DocuSign a lot. I do too.

I think I love you. You know that. Danny, it's a penny. I eat a penny, what? You get a penny, everything. I'm someone signed something. Does an angel get his wings? No, I do.

So YouTube was only out about six months, right? Or maybe. That sounds about right. I mean, we hadn't heard of it until someone told us they just watched Lazy Sunday on YouTube. Oh, wow. And then we were like, what's that? And then we realized, oh, someone finally thought of it

an actual good layout for streaming videos. Cause there had been tons of websites trying to do it. And especially like comedy shorts and like that kind of thing. And we would submit to websites, our lonely island stuff that we were making before us. Before I said, yeah. And we had our own website that we like somehow finagled server space on, you know, just.

Right around broadband was something to come in. I don't know. I heard it was starting to come in. Yeah, it was, yeah, just to do it. Right around the broader space. Something to come in, right? I don't know. I heard it was starting to come in. Yeah, it was, yeah, it was perfect timing. Yeah, and you gotta keep, you know, they just eradicated measles. But, we, you know, we heard of YouTube and then like the next week put all our videos on YouTube

because we were like, oh, this is the best version. First shovel, yeah. Yeah, it finally worked. We found a spot. Yeah. You and I just want to get to pronunciation, right? It's Andy. By the way, I said my Andy's name.

Your name was David. I want to say, listen to this thing. This was someone told me. Look, his name was Andy. Somebody told him that. They called him David. No, his name was David. And my brother's name was Andy.

And my name's David. You can't make this, yeah, you can. You can't make it. Was the person who told you, with last name, Opedia? Yeah, it was, it was Wikipedia, it was printed out. Um, but I know about you, I just didn't know that. That's a, that's a, that's a,

that's a, that's a, that's a, bandmates or a great advocate. Have a, have a little smaller than a key. A key, a, shaffer and, you a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, You were what? Dan Agarney. I am an interviewer. No one knew this name. It was up there to stand up. Well, by the way, Dan Agarney. I've been, you must have been. I'm Adam. Everyone thinks I'm Adam because of Sandler. Oh yeah, yeah.

You think I'm Adam Sandberg. Oh, right. So that is Andy Sandler. So that's Andy Sandler. Andy Sandler. One time I was doing stand up before I got SNL and someone literally introduced me as Adam Sandler. And everyone.

And I walked out and I was like, no, no, no, no. That's how I am. I'm so sorry. I also like him. No, I got here too. This is David Bowie once. David? I got, here's my one they messed up.

David Bowie. I go to the improv a couple of times a week, just to give him a little treat, you know. Oh yeah. And then I go, give him a taste of the magic. They go, what do you want to say? And they go, I go, the improv a couple of times a week, just to give him a little treat, you know. Oh yeah. And then I go, give him a chance at the magic. They go, what do you want to say? And they go, I go, just say, it's the last movie on Netflix, it's the wrong,

and he goes, just say the wrong, and he's saying some other shit. And they go, got it, and they go, this guy was in the right, Matilda, the quiet. And I go, why is that one so hard? They say it wrong every single time. You say it wrong too. I came up during the Ruff and Tumble club days.

My biggest intro from Tony to Paul, the Holy City Zoo, and I'm nervous stand up. Here he is, Danagarni, the man who invented the blowjob. That was the first one. That was it. I didn't ask you to say that. I didn't ask you to say that. Or you say, some people think he's funny.

I don't know about that. You know, it was Ruff and Tumble. Yeah, yeah. 40 seater. They're trying to Or you say, some people think he's funny. I don't know about that. You know, it was rough and tumble. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 40 seers. They're trying to nag you on the way up. 40 seers. 40 seers. Then Rob Williams would come in her.

I just found her play and you do like three hours. Didn't I take it? I'm going back to Brooklyn. I want to go back. Cause you know, let's know it's Brooklyn 9.9 thing cause he got it for an Emmy. I think you won an Emmy. Two golden glow.

Bluebees. Bluebees. Who does his homework? I got some globes back when that meant something, you know. Sure. Do you want to hear people say don't ever talk about yourself on the podcast, but guess what? So here's what's going to happen.

All right. I have any audience and they go golden globe. By the way, we're back in fucking Azusa. You know, they keep the people from TV, the golden gloves on TV. So I'm cruised up front. I'm on the third deck where I have to take two elevators to get the stage. They know I'm not going to win. So, and a trolley.

Not time, so you're having a little talk. And they go, but it was a harder supporting category. It was against Don Chiddle. It was against every supporting category on TV and movies. What was the category? Supporting in anything. Oh, four-year show. Yeah, four-year show.

So I'm up against Gregory Peck, John Cheetle, the guy who you are, it's drama comedy, everything. So I can't, I already won because I just got that far. Yeah, it's crazy. And so they go, seriously, Gregory Peck, he beat me. He did 90 seconds in Moby Dick and he goes, I can't believe I'm getting it. I'm working for 90 seconds. I'm like, no fucking shit. I slugged out 148 episodes.

Anyway, and then at the end of the week, they go like this. They would spate, I'm Greg Repeck. I just spot out. I know you know, Peck, that sounds like. That's, that's Peck. Everyone knows things going. It's not close enough to an old person. I'm mad at him once, so what happened?

So at the Emmys, they go like this. The, this is supporting comedy and they go David Hide Pierce and if you saw the slow motion of my shoulders go up And I went back down and then went for an applause And I was like did anyone fucking see that false false start? Yes, and it's like everyone saw it I do feel like I like it when people react negatively when they don't win. It's real I feel like you can do it when people react negatively when they don't win. It's real. I feel like you can do it and everyone will think it's funny,

but also you can just be honest about that, your bond. I would just mouth what the fuck? Yeah, what the fuck? At least you're doing something comedy. How many times were you nominated? You won twice. I was for Brooklyn I-9. That was the only nomination and win was the show and me that year and then never again nominated.

That's weird. Yes. Politics. What were you bad after that? I just didn't care. As I forward. Your nickname was phoned in on the set. Yeah. You want to go on the call. She just turned into a paycheck. I was like I like this and everything about it. Have you seen these shows like you noticed the M.E.s? Because they sort of lost a little bit over the years, but let's say it's still exciting. So they they they win something and someone that wins on a show or a comedy then next year they get canceled and you go that's a mind-fuck like you just want you go at least

we have a little job security here. You're talking about the show got canceled. Like the show, yeah, you like so many wins or the show wins and then the show gets canceled and you go, what happened in that? You go like, I guess it wasn't good. Right, you go, I'm not only, not only are we not up for one.

Now we're canceled a one year later. Do you think they like hide that Emmy in the closet and like shame, shame it? It's sad, yeah. I would take it out of you. Yeah, let it. Oh, you happy, Emmy? Yeah, me.

You know that, Emmy. You have to get the Emmy cursed. Stay in there. There's a little necklace cage sneaking in there for your fans. No. Oh yeah. We can talk plenty about that.

We can talk about that. It's hard to go. You have so much, but the cool thing is you did a 152 episode. Your first kind of thing, I do my homework. I love it. I went to State School. I didn't know that I did a hundred and fifty two episodes. I'm a Bay Area guy like you.

So I know that's true. I throw down for you. And but not anymore, do you still stay up there? I have a house up there. In what area? We don't have for any county. Oh, I love it. That's stunning.

What's the address? My wife grew up there. We can do a little childhood stuff for sex. Well, what town did you grow up in? In Berkeley. Oh, you look so disappointed. Long Berkeley. You used to go to the track meets there.

My first stand-up set was on telegraph avenue with the Los Alamandera Cafe. Oh, that roll. Hippie plays. You're like hating us. So you kind of raised like a hippie or is it? Yeah, a little bit. A little bit.

A little bit. How many kids, just you were the only one? I have two older sisters. Interesting. Yeah. Baby Indie. Samberg's got cool hair, which I've been furiated me, but do you think I do right now?

It's pretty cool still, yeah. Sick. Now you can look and do, which. You have hair and you have a jaw. Yeah. I need a lot of work up here. And I, even Bert Lancaster told me, Now you can look and do it. You have hair and you have a jaw. Yeah. You guys have a smitten face. I need a lot of work up here. And I even Bert Lancaster told me,

how can you be a movie star? You've got no chin. That's a quote from Bert Lancaster to me. What is he gay and my segment? Exactly. Exactly. He got mad because. He was a dick back here.

I got mad. I jumped out of my chair so he could sit in my chair. He was 73. Yeah. And he's coming over. I jumped out and he thought I he could sit in my chair. He was 73. Yeah, and he's coming over. I jumped out He thought I patronized him You motherfucker This was

Tough guys you're before I got SNL. I played the parole officer with Bert Landcaster Okay, but anyway, you know, I when I beat Ah, okay, but anyway, you know, when I beat Greta Thumburg at the Emmys, she goes, How dare you. I'm good, why? How dare you? I swung back for that week joke. Go ahead. How dare you?

It was a good, it was a good move. Who's going to be married to that woman? How dare you not clean your plate? How dare you? Where am I? She doesn't have to get married to find happiness. I just want to play. That's true. ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa?

¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa?

¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa?

¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué pasa? ¿Qué la comunidad artística? ¿Dónde se puede hacer una parte de la comunidad artística? ¿Dónde se puede hacer una parte de la comunidad artística? ¿Dónde se puede hacer una parte de la comunidad artística? ¿Dónde se puede hacer una parte de la comunidad artística? ¿Dónde se puede hacer una parte de la comunidad artística?

¿Dónde se puede hacer una parte de la comunidad artística? You have it like an artistic childhood. Was there stuff going on in the house? Was your mom and dad or how did you and your eighth grade buddies get so into comedy? We just were. I don't know. You just met these guys like soulmates, right? And yeah, actually I like just found a letter I wrote myself was like a third grade exercise when I was eight where they're like say, write a letter to yourself

what you think you'll be in 20 years. My mom just sent this to me. Wow. From the basement. And it was like, I'm gonna be a famous comedian and I'll be married and I'm gonna have two kids and I was just like, oh shit, it's all exactly what happened.

Oh, cool. Wow. That's cool. Wow, cool. Eight. I don't know why, honestly, it started not to blow smoke, but I used to sneak into the TV room in our house

and watch the Saturday Night's main event, the WWF wrestling thing. And it was only on once a month. He wasn't on that. And every other time it wasn't on, it was SNL. So by accident, I started watching SNL because I was like, oh, it's not on, but what's this? And it was right when it was your first cast

and that's when I got into the show. So you were like, what, 12 or something or 10, 12. I don't say I might have been like eight. Fucking shit. I think. Wow, that's cool. I'm 44. I'm glad it's not going.

So I didn't make you want to quit. Like that guy is such a kid. No, I was like, you can do this. This is allowed. I want to be like, I want to be like that guy. I'm pointing to you right now for people, because you can see this, but I'm pointing right at you. We can never forget that.

I mean, it'll hit me sometimes. If you're up there in a costume on a stage somewhere, doing something you go, I'm, this is my job, really. There it is. Also, somebody is watching. Right now, I'm working. I mean, you guys probably grew up watching us now.

It probably wasn't best. Different from how it was for me and my ex-girlfriend. For me to run into Dan Acroix at the show. Yeah, it was just nerve-wracking. Yeah, and then he talks to you about his vodka for like an hour and my friends. For me to run into Dan Acroix at the show. Yeah, it was just nerve-wracking. Yeah, and then he talks to you about his vodka for like an hour and a half. Yeah. Well, you don't have to leave the show.

Yeah, he talked about investing. He was an investor early on. No, it's insane to bump in. Anyone from that original cast, it's crazy. When they walk in your office, here's some of the offices. And Acroix came in knock knock. I know.

It's her fair enough, sir. That's right. He's good about it. So Acroix is very like, I like what you did. I know it's very funny, and you're in, knock knock. I know. I'd serve her enough, sir. That's right. He's good about it. So Accred's very like, I like what you did. I know it's very funny and you're like, holy shit, this is crazy. Every time I run into him, it goes, you know the church lady was kind of,

you know, sir, it was sort of a perfect comic character. Yeah, if I see him at the 50th, I'm waiting for it. I go, hey, Dan, what about the, to go to the 40th? I was at the 40th. Yeah, fun, right. I did a video with Sandler. We did a thing about everyone breaking.

Oh, you did? Yeah, they put it in Shikhan Alley, but it played well online. Well, what the hell, you mean- In the first of all, that should be your next musical video Shikhan Alley. Do you mean you presented it from a bad spot on the stage? No, no.

I did not make that up. People used to talk about it at the table read if you were in the second half of the read in the middle of the second half, that's chicken alley where nothing plays. Because everyone's exhausted. Yeah. And then once everyone knows there's one or two left, they laugh again. Yeah. And so it's not bad to be the anberian alert got on, right?

Of course. It aired and it played well, but it was like people were partying already and drinking and walking around. Well, I think Mike and I went on last, didn't we? Where is world? Were you dead last? I thought we were dead last. It aired and it played well, but it was like people were partying already and drinking and drinking. Well, I think Mike and I went on last, didn't we? Weaseworld? Were you dead last? I thought we were dead last. That's great.

We'll see, but that's a good spot. Then they're waking up when it comes over. I said, would you be really angry or really flattered? I said, that's a micro-forevent out. I think probably a little both. It worked out. You know what's interesting? I probably shouldn't say this.

Say anything you want to me or Dave. It was such a comedy room and people are so fucking like SNL competitive that like the monologue opening thing was Timberlake and Fallon doing like SNL through the years and it was like a full on crowd pleasing showstopper. Yeah. And half the room was kind of like arms crossed. Like, I was like, Jesus, I don't want anything I do to air in this room. We're all moved in a little clowns.

If he does good, then I don't do this. And everyone in home was like, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen. I was doing bubbion. I was with Jane Curtin was yelling, fuck you to me from the front row. Yeah, take your own advice and get out. Jane Curtin was cool. She's wonderful. Yeah, take your own advice and get out of all nice people. Jake Curtin was cool. She's wonderful. You get a, what do you, or will you be at the 50th? We ask everybody if I'm invited, I gotta go, right?

We're gonna be invited. You never know at the same time. Well, I heard there's no plus ones. That's always weird. So my wife's not coming? Wait, that won't go down well. I know there's a lot of months. You weren't a vanity fairy the other night, right?

I didn't go cause of the knee. Oh, the knee. I just want you to know I was invited though. Oh, yeah. Dana, this Vanity Fair thing. I should've thought fucking day. Oh, I couldn't have survived. I couldn't bring anyone.

I was invited for 25 years, never went. So finally they stopped inviting me. Oh, God. For people at home, they hear about the Vanity Fair party, like the Oscar party, right? Yeah. So there's one guy who's after that, which is really fun. And that's, at least I know him, so it's easier. But Vanity Fair, it's not audition,

but you just hear one day, oh, if you wanna go to Vanity Fair, I always thought I was always invited, and then one year I go, hey, I didn't hear about that, Vanity Fair, I think I wanna go to that and bring my buddy, and they go, it's just so tricky this year. I'm like, oh, what does that mean?

They're like, I can't go, and they're like, mmm, it's not that, it's just that you can't right now. And I'm like, oh, what does that mean? They're like, I can't go and they're like, mm, it's not that. It's just that you can't right now. And I'm like, so it is that. And then, but they, for people listening, you see pictures of the Vandy Fair Party, but it's a fun party, but they stagger you. Yes. So you either go like, Apertile, I didn't know anyone,

and I got no plus one. And I said, I think I'm gonna go, I get home for my shows. I just wanna go go at least do something.

He went out and he went to, he went to, how does he sound? Yes Little app a towel you copy an attitude and just say the thing Funny what you He does say that he does say that's funny. So I get there I hit right where all the models hitting and they're all 50 feet tall. And I go, can I just cut in front of you guys and just,

and they're like, is someone talking? And so I go, I remember I went up to Judd Scalva. I go, I thought you were Nancy Pelosi. That was my joke to her. Yeah. And she goes, fuck you. And I go, no, she's right behind you. And I go, because it's funny, because one time she kicked me and he asked the Golden Globes and she said, Hey, fats. And I turn around. I don't even know her. Nancy Pelosi. No, sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm not in the pool. Nancy always looks like she just sat on something cold and wet. That's a nightmare. Sorry, that's my Nancy Pelosi joke. Well, finish this. No, there's no story.

I was just saying it's embarrassing and I went there and that was it, I guess. So, why did I call you Fats? She did because she thought it was funny and I thought it I guess. So, why did Alba call you Fats? She did, because she thought it was funny, and I thought it was funny. Oh, okay. If you really were fat, that would be insensitive. Yeah, I just, no, I didn't care. It was back in the dark angel days.

Oh, we're talking dark angel days. That's what I was thinking. That's what I was thinking. I was thinking of the Golden Clothes. So this time, I was just getting her back, because sometimes if I see her, she says something like that. So, you guys have kind of like a, she was funny, yeah. So, it was a, it was, I was just getting her back because sometimes if I see her, she says something like that. So you guys have kind of like a... Just funny, yeah.

It was a corporate report. It was nothing mean. It was just being stupid. Carpet report, you're right. That is a thing that if you go to a lot of awards shows and awards show parties, you do start having like award season friends that you only see at events. And it's a very strange phenomenon.

We're like, hey! But then you like... And you never see them again. You're never like, we phenomenon. We're like, hey, but then you like. And you're never seen again. You're never like, we should exchange numbers. You want your something weird for 10 seconds. Just see them at that. I went in 91 I think, because of Wayne's world. So I look over, I think it's really up Lewis.

We'll put it in later. Hey, thanks. Hurry up. I said, Julia Lewis and Brad Pitt, I think it was her at the day. Oh, and they were dating again. I see him off the side and I can see that they're talking to each other whether they should come over and talk to me.

Oh, that's a big nervously coming over. And did they? I go, we're just gonna leave now and he goes, that's a good plan, like that plan. Let's face it, man, my god, Dan has been, sorry. What's fun time in Hollywood? Yeah, I've seen it. Oh, yeah, that was Brad Pitt.

You were in the right. Yeah, neither. sorry. What's fun time in Hollywood? Yeah, I've seen it. Oh, yeah, that was Brad Pitt. 11 times. You were right. Yeah, neither. No. 11 times. What I'm interested in right now, salodeum, this podcast. I'm interested in Andy and his buddies.

They make their thing and then they come to SNL and you're your first broom and then you did come up with lazy Sunday at SNL. Yeah. So how to walk through that process. You meet Lauren, you tell her, what was your first meeting with Lauren and the writers? What was that thought? Well, we got to show actually because we were writing on the MTV movie words and Fallon

hosted. So I do, oh, a great deal to Fallon. Hey, what's up, man? What's up with you? Oh my God, what's up with me? I know, he's awesome. He's awesome. I did it in my audition because I knew he did Sandler and his. It was very winky. Oh, wow.

What was your take on? It was Jimmy Fallon at a funeral. Oh my God, so sad, right? Oh, I'm so sad. Hey, what a tragedy. Anyway, here's the next album. I just took him to the anthems. I'm happy to have him.

But yeah, he's easy. But yes, he was great and he was super great to us and we got some stuff in the show and he and and Higgins and Shoemaker were there for for people. I'm Steve Higgins. I'm Steve Higgins. SNL producers and a bunch of the writers and we kind of hit it off with everybody. So they were like, you guys should audition. So I do audition.

Yeah, what do you do? Were you Andy Semberger with your buddies or? I did it solo and I did. I had been doing stand-up for like five or six years, seven years, on and off. Really? I didn't know that. Yeah, where were you playing mostly?

Well, I started off. I was going to NYU for a couple of years. And I started doing just bringer shows in New York. So like, seller and Boston Comedy Club, and it was all that, and got them all those kinds of places. And then I moved out here, and like the best day I ever got to was doing a couple of shows here and there at the Improv.

And then I did Premium Blend on Comedy Central. That was kind of the high watermark for me, a standout. Okay. But so I did some of that stuff. And then they were like, but unique characters and impressions and I was like, I don't have. So we didn't really?

Not really. We just made up a bunch of shit like the weeks leading up to it. And those guys helped me keep in your arm. And it went well so they said you need to come back and then they also had your audition and Keeve did a meeting with Lauren and we all submitted a writing packet together. All three writing and you got a feature performer?

Yeah. And then they got hired as writers. They were writers. It was a crazy dream. We're all of a sudden. We're all three guys to get on this very. Well, to come in with your buddies from eighth grade and now we're all in Saturday and I live.

And we had already been, I mean, we'd known each other a long time. So we had shorthand and we trusted each other. But it was also like, we had spent the last five years in LA making stuff. So we had kind of a rhythm of what we were doing already. And a TV show on YouTube, basically. Kind of, yeah, I mean, people didn't really know about it the same way they do now,

but it was the same thing in that we had gotten a lot of the bad stuff out of our system. Well, you have to practice. Well, the thing is that in for young people today, it just, I say, well, just do a YouTube channel, do this and that. And then you get two views or five. And then you're reading about someone else with, you know, Rihanna has 500 million

and to keep yourself going. And you guys obviously just loved it. You know, it wasn't getting tremendous traction. No, it was also just a different time. Like YouTube really didn't exist yet when we were doing it. So that comparing despair thing. For us, it was like, let's just make stuff

until we feel like we're good and it'll work in some way or another. But we never thought we'd get SNL. That was like my big only dream. And I was just, Fallon saw something. I even went and like did the groundlings like intro audition for the classes and stuff and Just tanked it

I just wanted it too bad, you know I was like my brain went a million different places The tough part of shows and try not to try because whenever you push it never works and yet you want to be present It's trying to catch the wind. It's always there But isn't it great when you're in the pocket, you don't give a fuck? Yeah. Like by year, I don't know what year did you kind of go,

I'm not nervous on stage. I'm relaxed. Was it right away or was it, it took me like, I think 80 shows. I think it was probably by like your four or five. Yeah. It's once you feel like you're not gonna get fired. Yeah.

I think it's truly it. And then you get genuinely loose and then people of relax because you're relaxed. Did you get put up every year where it was like pretty much on? Because I had to go home in May and he wouldn't decide. Yeah, you guys had a crazy stretch. I had to check out my apartment, I had to get out and then... Well, because the old guys, my team didn't leave.

I stayed until 93. Yeah. So you overla, and that was a reason. But once we all cleared out, I think David had a pretty hot two years. Yeah. When you guys were all there at the same time, like the two different generations. Yeah, we were.

And you look at it, it's so rare in the history of the show where you look at both generations and they're fucking stacked in both. Yeah. That's the craziest part to me about when you guys were on. 90 to 93. That I feel like that was the most loaded because we had David and Farley and Sandler and Chris Rock and they're coming up and doing stuff. Adam's getting the guitar.

He's going on. Yeah. And then we had Phil Hartman and myself and Mike Myers. Yeah. That's a lot of people making shit that ended up on a t-shirt. You know? Well, we talked with Lauren about that and it was like if it's a team,

you know, this guy can start or this guy can start. So we had Tunes as the cat, even with Jack Hamilton. No, it's his. But even just like throwing deep thoughts. Yeah, which was a constant on the show and super funny that always was. And Mike would throw down his sprockets or and or Wayne's world.

You know, Sandler would do opera man. Went, you know, got greatest hits every show practically. But anyway, enough about that era. Ha ha ha. This is called Dana and David. No, I love what you did. So I want to hear if we can tactfully, you go in to Rockfeller Center.

Yes. What are you feeling? And do you have a private meeting with Lauren or with the three of you or what? You mean when I got hired? When you got hired. Yeah. Yeah. First time you went and talked to Lauren.

They had me and Bill fly out. Bill Hader? Yes. Sorry. Me and Bill Hader to fly out to, I'm told to meet with Lauren. You like, you audition twice. They're interested. They want you to come meet with Lauren. You're like, you audition twice, they're interested, they want you to come meet with Lauren.

Me and Bill sit next to each other on a flight from LA to New York. Marcy Klein had already told him that me and him got the show. Oh, wow, cool. No one told me and Bill bless his heart, pretended the entire flight that he didn't know so he didn't be the one to tell me. He wanted me to have like my moment where I got to actually find out.

That's right. So the whole he makes fun of me now because we talk all the time. He's like, you were like, oh man, I wonder if we're going to get it. I knew. I knew. But so he get there. He goes in for his meeting, which is just saying hi to Lauren because he's got the show. Then I go in and I talk to Lauren, you know, maybe 10 minutes and it's Lauren, so he gives

you nothing. Benchens nothing about anything. Was there anyone in the room? No, just me and him. He never stands up and leans over the table and goes, congratulations. You got the job. Literally, I think he's a guard. Are here.

It's not like a real. Now, you must do a Lauren or a Lauren impression. It doesn't matter if it is. It's not good, but it's basically him being like, so do you think you'd be willing to cut your hair? I'm like, what in the cut your hair? It was really crazy long. I was like, oh yeah, I'll shave my head if you want,

whatever you want. I was like, on cover. But that's a very specific one. And he goes, and you think you could do this? You think you could live in New York? And I was like, oh yeah, I've lived here before. I lived here for two years recently. He's like, okay, well, we're gonna all go out to dinner

so you should come. And I was like, okay, and I walked out, and I looked around and it was like, Jen and Shuckas were there. And I was like, and they were like, so? And I was like, I don't know. What happened? And they're like, you got it.

So they were the ones who know it. They were the ones who don't make visual. But Lord never went like, we're hiring you. That those words never came out. I never heard that. I don't think he ever does. Some lieutenant comes up and he just shows. I mean, he like fell on the floor.

So where did you go to dinner? Do you remember? And how many people were in that dinner? Because that's kind of a, it might have been worse. A big thing to be involved. Or so is a big one for Tuesday night dinners. When I remember, wherever we went, it might have been worse. A big thing to be involved. Or so it was a big one for Tuesday night dinners. When I was, I remember we wherever we went, it was in that theater district area.

And it was me and Bill and a few other people. And Conan was there at a different table. Yeah. And they were like, Oh, Conan, you should meet these are gonna be two new cast members. And I was just like, like, freaking the fuck out.

I were like, my life just got so cool. Yeah, it's a cool factor. All of us go, well, well, if it's not shitty, crappy and cruddy. Oh, yeah, and being all tall too. So tall. So alpha dominated. That's an animated show.

It's a funny, crappy, crappy idea. When you did impressions, like you said, like I didn't really do impressions too many, but when they, did they assign you one or say, hey, can you play this or did you do Marky Mark? That one.

All my impressions happen on accident. Like I think Emily Spivey and someone else were the first ones to be like, oh, we put you in this thing as Nick Cage and I was like, I don't do Nick Cage. But so I just worked on it and it ended up being something I found out that I could kind of do. And Walberg I was doing some bit with Jonah Hill actually. We were hanging out in the summertime and he's like, you kind of sound like Mark Walberg, I was doing some bit with Jonah Hill, actually, we were hanging out in the summertime. And he's like, you kind of sound like Mark Walberg right now. And I was like,

oh, yeah, anything to get on the funny show. Yeah. So I tried, I tried that. I wrote it with, with Steel. But say hello to great, your mother for me is the funniest thing to say. Which character says that? He does. Walberg here. You were the dog, talk to animals. Yeah, he talks to animals. That was a deal's idea. But you found that rhythm, that hook, that whole. Yeah, it's funny. Like, obviously you're one of the greatest of all time

at the impressions. And like, I'm close with people also who are like wig and frown and kill. I mean, it's a whole other skill set. And I've never considered myself good at it, but there's like a few times in my life where I have found it and I'm like, oh, this must be what it's like for them all the time.

Oh, yeah. Like, it is really fun to do it. It can be hard. And it becomes its own language and it becomes its own character. You know, that's the fun part. Well, that's the thing, it becomes a character. So I've know many, many, incredibly accurate impressionists

that aren't intrinsically funny. Yeah. But since you're a comedian when you did it was funny and also it was accurate enough that It represented Mark Walber. Sure. Sure. So it worked completely. How many times did you do that? It was kind of a hit I think only twice really yeah, I was you did it to Mark Walber Well, he came on the show and to basically, he did a whole thing where he was like, I guess they had asked him about it and he said something negative. And then I think him and his team were like,

oh, we don't want people thinking, I'm being too much of a bummer about this. So he came on and pretended like he was gonna kick my ass. Yes. And it was very pleasant. It was totally fine. It was the episode that Palin was on too. It was a crazy episode. Oh, big one. That's a score. Yeah, your time was pretty heavy.

You know, yeah, that election year and your bandmates, so to speak. It was. Yeah. It was interesting for us every election. We were there for two election years, I think. And our joke was always like, oh, well, we're not going to have anything on the show this year. Because it became so political. And we just didn't really engage with that. We just wanted to make goofy shit. But now I think for the, for everyone who works there now, that's just every year. And yet, just nonstop. Yeah, it takes me. Like it always has to be like about something and saying something and addressing what's happening. There happening. I think they have less opportunity to just do weird ideas. The world changed.

Yeah, and it's probably going to change back. I mean, that's how it's historically happened. I like acid humor the best. I like silliness the best if I have to say madness and coming full circle back to you. So, uh, Lazy Sunday and the Princess of Narnia, like, are you writing that when it's coming together? I'm just curious, like, that's your first SNL. Is that the first one or not the first one? That was the second one.

We had made one short that aired before that called Lattice, which was a bomb. No, I'm kidding. Hey, come on. Hey, David. That's kind second one. We had made one short that aired before that called lettuce, which was a bomb No kidding. Hey, David He's our guest we're talking about now. He said that was that part of SNL not a free SNL No, he aired on SNL. It was it was a will-forty idea that we did with him and we shot it on like a home Camera and it aired and we were like holy shit that that aired. And then lazy Sunday was the second one that aired, but that wasn't until the Christmas episode of our first season. Did you show it to Lauren when you got it

completely finished? No, I think the first time he saw it, I think was at dress. And I assume you guys knew you had a hit with that. No, no, we were... We were... We were... Once it aired, we were like, oh shit, this is, I think people really liked it. You know, no. We were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were, it was worked and warmed and over time. We were, we had been there up till Christmas

at that point, you know, and we hadn't, we had gotten stuff on and we were getting along with everybody, but we weren't like, we're killing this. You know, yeah, so for us, it was still the mentality of, oh, it's gonna air. Like it was that, it was still that early. Yeah, you know, I think it's,

I think it's gonna air. And then the crazy thing that happened with Lazy Sunday was what you brought up was, it all of a sudden became a news item because everyone was like, there's a website called YouTube. And then every article about it was a picture of me in part now.

Yes, you kind of represented YouTube. And what you do this, do you say, does she make or someone say, you should put a cast member in it with you? Or is that your idea? Well, what do you mean? Like it's you and Chris Barnell. Oh yeah, well, in the beginning,

we, like, Keven Yorm shot one, that was an idea we all had when I was in LA for an off week, taking generals. Yeah. Um, time well spent. Take those generals, generals. General meeting. Yeah, yeah. Oh, you just generals now. Yeah. Yeah. I came back and they had made something and I was like, Oh, shit, it's that idea. It's so funny. And we showed it to shoemaker

and Higgins. And they were like, you guys just went and made this and were like, yeah. And they're like, do stuff like this for the show, but put the cast in it. That was literally what they said. Yeah. And they put, they'd say put the cast in it. Because you're too new. Did Parna, did you have to coach him at all? Because if someone cast me and that, I don't know how you, you're double tracking to get, because it sounds like real rap, all your stuff does. To make it like, yeah.

So what do you double track? You put effects on it, it just has this muscularity. Yeah. I mean, we had been making songs for fun, and we had shot a few music videos for them. That was like something we had sort of started doing before us and now. And we're like, oh yeah, we could try a song here.

That might be fun. And we knew Parnell, quote unquote, wrapped or frapped. We ate it. We did? Yeah, wrapping, because he used to do it on update. Like he did a thing, I think like Britney Spears one week was the musical guest and he like did a rap dedicated to Britney Spears love it that we thought was super funny. What a score for him to be in that though.

Yeah, but it was also awesome for us because he was fucking hilarious. Like as soon as it starts you're like, oh my god, Parnell is so in. He dedicates his brain to it. Like him and Forte both have that weird gene of a performer where they will never break no matter what. They're so in it. Forte is. There's a slight psychosis to it that makes you laugh so hard because you can tell they're actually lunatics deep down and you love it. There's something a little different. Yes, it's wrong. Yes, it's a,

or day at his own lane. He did some brilliant, yes, just only he could do. I would say he probably of everyone, and this is saying a lot, because I loved almost everyone I worked with there. At the table, the person I was always the most excited

to see what he was gonna do, because it was always so weird. He was so weird. Yeah. I remember the potato chip one when what he was going to do. Because it was always so weird. He was so weird. Yeah. I remember the potato chip one, where he came in and screamed all the time. I told him back then and he goes, you saw the potato chip one?

I just watched it one night on television. And I go, yeah, it was, you know, comedians, we know where all the tricks are, we know, but, you know, to get surprised by another comedian like in the commitment. Then you just commit. But. And you give Lauren credit for seeing a weird bit and it even bombs miserably and he goes, put it on.

Yeah. And it takes balls to go, we're teaching the audience. This is funny. We're not saying, oh, it didn't do as good. You know, you just go, no, this is what should be out. That's that, you know, kind of, wins world story. Yeah.

When I, I sometimes do stuff that I don't explain, so I knew I was doing Garth's making a mechanical hand. I hope you've seen the movie. But in my mind, the mechanical hand is gonna strangle Rob Lowe. Yes. So Rob Lowe comes in before it's finished, so I beat the shit I've had.

So it's laying there at the previews. And I kind of liked it because it was my stick, but I'm like, okay, I get it, you guys want to. And Lauren's like, it's one of those things, you know, like 20 years from now, you're like glad it's there. Yeah, so Lauren does have that quirky side too. Isn't that we fear change? It's that moment, right?

Yeah, we fear change. I know the film. God, what about that? What about that? How do you react to people coming up to you the way you would have come up to someone else? Like to come up to you guys? I can't believe I'm me and Andy,

Samberg, you know, that they are poor to whatever and they're usually very sweet stuff. It's out of body experience, isn't it? It's trippy. I mean, the first time it happens, you're like, fucking, I did it, you know? Yeah, yeah.

And then I don't know, I always just think about, and truly, like you guys are on this list, when I was a teenager in my early 20s, if I saw someone from SNL in real life, I would lose my shit. So I try to always remember that I felt like that, and the idea that somebody could feel that way about me is super exciting. I have quite hate to the same way though. Like when I see Accroyd or I saw Dana those guys, it's never the same as when people see me

and I go, no, that's not that exciting. When they saw me, I see these guys. You know what I mean? You gotta remember, like when it's whatever, everyone says this is about us and all right, it's like when kids and teens are a certain age, that cast is their cast and it means way more to them than even the original

cast, which feels impossible to us movies to when you're 12 and 13. Yeah. Accord after blues brothers and shit. Yeah. Oh my God. But dude, Wayne's world and Tommy boy are those for me way more than blues brothers. Nothing against blues brothers. It's just those are my ears where I was like, holy shit.

I can't believe that they're getting to do this. And it makes me feel like I have a place on earth, like literally. Because you wouldn't do that stuff. Yeah, and I still quote those movies like every week. Yeah, that's nice. I can move you remember, we've here changed. Yeah, the guards say that.

Garza, we've here changed. We've here changed. Yeah. And then, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What about this pop star movie? See, oh yeah. I think I told that whole Vanity Fair story because Biber was there. Yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah beaver parody, but they marketed it as a beaver parody. I like beaver as well. And we met him a bunch of times at SNL. I'll say this. Super talent.

I mean, obviously in that moment, it was like he was one of the biggest pop stars in the world. Of course. He still is. So we're making a movie about that world. So there are definitely jokes in it that are inspired by him. Like, sure. And you exaggerate a situation like he's a big pop star

What's the funniest version of everything doesn't mean it's about Bieber correct? It's about But there's also a lot of stuff about a lot of other people in it too and then all that stuff we just kind of made up yeah, I will say this Judd who who blesses heart Is the reason we got to make that movie? Oh, that's right judge fully produced it fully ushered it told us like hey If you guys wanted to make a movie like that I'll produce it and just gave us basically a free got to make that movie. Oh, that's right, Judd. Fully produced it, fully ushered it, told us like, hey, if you guys wanted to make a movie like that, I'll produce it and just gave us basically a free pass to make a movie. I think he was in line with Universal More about making the marketing feel a little more beaver leaning.

And we were like, this is Judd, he doesn't fucking mess. So whatever you guys want to do. And then we ate shit at the box office. H-a-a-a8 a whole big pile of shit. On a movie that is funny though. That's a very colorful way to put it. I've been in a couple of stinkers. I'll tell you what, it wasn't because

it was the marketing or the Bieber stuff. It was just like, people didn't want to go to the theater. But also people. But now hasn't it found a place. Sorry, isn't it kind of a cult film in a way that like the people are going to love it are going to be quoting it and possess by it. I'm assuming.

I mean, most of my favorite comedies didn't do well in theaters. Most. Wayne's World Obviously is an exception. And you know, there's exceptions, there's Anchorman, which is one of my all-time favorites. That did really well. But generally speaking, you know,

like we were kind of like riding spinal taps, coattails, and when it came out, I just kept reading stuff about it when spinal tap came out, it was in like six theaters or something. Yeah. It was like, we had hot American summer. There's a bunch of ones. Oh, that's the final tap.

And then it's right. Geez, you know my whole, you in small tap. Andy Sanberger's interviewing me today. We're having a, I was in spinal, the Mime waiter with Billy Crystal. That's right. It's super fun. Yeah, how fun. But to me, that movie was to your point.

That was sort of like, kind of like a movie like that. It's like the first mock documentary that I'd seen is like, this is so cool. It's one higher. What's, have you watched that movie anytime recently? Maybe not in the last couple of years.

It's crazy how well it holds up. Like just the pace of it, and it doesn't seem like it's rushing at all. It's pushing, yeah, yeah. But it doesn't waste a second of your time. Like it's just like type it, type it, type it. Every joke is funny, and they get out, and it moves, and the story makes sense,

and you actually kind of care in the end. We did. When you called it and I talked like Christopher Gas for like three years. Yeah, yeah. Every time we talked and we actually played Blackjack at Harris, we were playing and we just did it going, I told it like this. I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll

give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you you, I'll give you, I'll give you, I'll give you that they may believe it. When I did a conehead's, put the applause. Thank you.

Coneheads, they might go, I'd ask them on spinal tap. And coneheads after, you know, it came out was probably better than spinal tap. Anyway. Coneheads was great. Coneheads had so many funny people in it and it never just geled for a few days.

Well, I love anything where there are call coneheads in their heads look like cones. It's first, I always like that nail on the head. Maybe it was two on the money. I auditioned for. Well, I love anything where there are call cone heads in their heads. Look like cones. It's first. I always liked that nail on the head. Maybe it was two on the money. I auditioned for spinal tap. Did you might find this interesting? I came into Rob Reiner and the whole cast.

I'm on to see it. Yeah, I had to play the drummer or something. Great. And then I go, I go, this is nerve-wracking. You guys are all friends and I'm just walking in here. And so they all goes, oh, we get that. They all just immediately left the room. They just they just got out of the real. Wait, I'm waiting there five minutes and

then come back in. They go, oh, we're a little nervous. Why you've been, how long have been in here? You know, right? They felt sorry for me. So they gave me the mind thing. I'll do this guy was in a grownups too. Was I ever? Oh, as you were this cheerleader scene, which is, that's a good vehicle. That was a fun day. That was a great thing to use guys like you, where not to waste your time,

it's like one bit funny and you know. I mean, yeah, that's the thing too, that I know you know about once Sandler likes you and puts you in stuff, you'll be like, just come do a thing. You're like, okay. We'll figure it out later. Yeah.

Oh, I hate what I'm doing. I hate what I'm doing. It's a very sweet whispery thing. Yeah. Oh, I hate it. What's up, Noah? Noah's on my ear. Oh, it's a very sweet whisper. So we're gonna do a thing. You're gonna be like, with the bunch of sides on your Instagram. You're gonna be so funny. There he is.

Adam has a lot of things. The best. Yeah, the best. A lot of rhythms to him. And so we should, he's a hotel translator. We should talk about the sort of these. As are you? monster, monster things. Dude, were you, you were in the fourth one, right?

Yes, Andy. Yeah. Were you? Yeah. Was Selena? Yeah. Oh, Adam wasn't. Correct.

Oh, that's right. Yeah. You were in four. We been in four together. We've been in the, uh, I was in two. Finanches of hood. By the way, that is like the true like business joy of when Sandler likes you.

Oh my God. He called me. He's giving. We did, that's my boy and he called me after that. I was like, hey, we're doing this animate thing and there's a goofy guy. He's the only human. You're gonna be that guy.

And I was like, okay, thanks, I'm in. And then like four movies later. It pays off. Oh my God. I'm just like, okay. I have a story about that, but it's on the floor. Andy, unfortunately. Okay, well, you had the floor.

On hotel Transmany. So do you remember this, the first table read at Sony, and Amy Pascal was there, and it wasn't Selena. Who was Mavis? I truly have no idea. Miley Cyrus.

Whoa, really? And she was a half hour late. And it was me, Sandra. You, everyone was there waiting. Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm. She's still not here. And it was like, she comes in, hey, sorry. And then I sit down right, plus to the script, like, I don't know if it's a cold read. I was like, first of all, I love Miley Cyrus. First of all, she's a great singer.

She's unbelievable. I just saw her do like a prayer live with her cowboy on it. She's a great singer. This was just an off thing because she did the table read and the movie obviously went fine if they got Selena. I don't remember that. Right after and I'm so weird that I decided not to do it or just was not a perfect fit.

But Selena's obviously unbelievable and great and she was, yeah. I only met her twice along the way because we don't do that much. You know, we don't shoot them all together. I mean, we've never been in the room with her for anything but press We do all the press yeah, we do all the press together and it's like hey, this is fun Yeah, when today's people can couldn't we go somewhere for the yes, dude that was crazy the Sony like yeah retreat

That was nuts and that my wife and I were like, oh, we're gonna go to to loom We're already here. Yeah, you're in Mexico. Go ahead, Dan. Oh, I just wanted to, because I know we have a producer, Greg Holtzmann, gave us a list. A super fan, the huge obviously, Dick and a box.

We can't get through all of them, but you know, but Dick and a box, we just, and also dancing with Beyonce. Oh, yeah, single. Bobby Moynihan. Single. Ladies, what do you want to talk about those quickly? I mean, you have to go to Beyonce or just Marcy or just someone go to her. We wrote it.

Um, me and Bobby, I think, I might be getting that wrong, but I think that was it. And I think we knew Justin was around and could do it. And then I think it was Justin that went and talked to Beyonce about it because we were like, well, he's very famous and she's very famous. So that would probably go better. She's his DM. And also like, it's him being like, I'm going to be an Oliotard, like we're celebrating you, whatever it is.

But she was delightful. She's such a sweet, wonderful person in my limited interaction with her. Yeah. But that one was, that one was fun because we just were like, there's no way people are gonna be mad at this. It's too funny to move.

That's great. She rolls with it and it's all, and having her in it and, Yes. And then that's probably a blow up on video. Also her doing that song, like her performance of that song, that night on the show is one of the most

incredible performances. It's hard. Yes. And they're in like giant heels and just fucking destroying. Like her and Prince, I think are the two people, in my time there where I was like, I don't understand what's happening right now.

It's so impressive. She seems like a very hard worker from like early age and like busting up and gives 100% in every performance. She's a killer. That song, check on it. She has so many words in it. There's a couple songs where I go.

How does she, I mean, to do a whole concert, she has so much to do and dance and sing and costume. Her last sounds incredible. And everyone's in love with her. Yeah. And then, you know, Dickenabox, if you'd ever like to come on the podcast, you're always welcome.

You know, we say we like you here. Go ahead, yeah, Dickenabox. Dickenabox, you know, it's fine. We just kind of threw it together. Any problems with that? But that was the first one that went kind of sexual or art, right? Or art? Well, because Dickenabox kind of sexual or art, right? Or that art? Well, because Dick and a box was like on the edge, right?

Did sensor, we did the one with Natalie Portman at the end of the, of the previous year. And it was filthy, but it was all bleeped. But that was all, it was all bleeped. That was all her. What is, what is, what was that one? It was, it was just her rapping real filthy. Basically, she, she loved Lil' Kim and told us she wanted to do it.

And we were like, okay, how great. I mean, you believe all the words out. Yeah, a lot of bleeps. I mean, that was the fun of getting to do so much pre-tap as we ended up. There was not a lot of bleeps before us, I don't think. When you dig in a box to the audience, it says dick in a box.

No, I think it was bleaped in. Oh, no, really, even for the... Because it's live. Oh, yeah, yeah. So what part is bleaped? The word dick. Yeah, Dana. So you can't say dick, okay.

You can say box. But, what could they just bleep on? You can say dick in a, dick in a, and you wouldn't know what it meant. It could be dick. Will sell you. Well, could be dick in your pants, like a medical thing. Two things.

Two things about the bleeps. We were told that because it was bleaped, people thought it was cock. Cock and the bomb. Even dirty or really, right? Yes. Which, and it sounds much worse musically. And then a few years later,

we aired the song, Jizz and My Pans, with no bleeps and no anything. But what's Jizz? I don't know. I would've still known him. Thank you. Yep. I'm told someday I'll find out. But that one it had to air after 12th, 15 or something?

Like it was like at the very end of the show. Huh. And I think whoever was running, and you see at the time, it was maybe like Jeff Zucker or somebody, came down to the show and like they had a whole conversation about it. Basically we brought it in,

because we had already started doing albums at that point. It was from our first album. And we were like, hey, we have this video. Maybe we could just play it at Dress and see how it goes. And then it was like, ooh, it went well. And more like, so we should air it. And they're like, but can we? And we're like, we have a censored version,

which does exist where instead of jizz, you just hear a variations of us going, ooh, it's a lot sillier, but not as funny. You can have a dick in a box and also jizz in the box. You could. With the dick. Same word about that. Well, I'm gonna show you a chart how that could work.

You're off. Where would you hold the box? You know, the dress pants on your age. Dicking a box was revolutionary, but also I'm on a boat is so dry. It is dry as a boat. There's nothing to it but that one idea. What are you doing on the boat? I'm on a boat. It just reached people being on boats, just being on boats. There were a lot of videos at that time where the concept of the video was just the way it is. They were on a boat and they were doing their song

on boats and were doing good. Yeah, yeah. Teapane was a great addition. It's always fun when you just throw someone in that out of the blue, I think you pan over to him at the beginning like you got one. Yeah, that's a laugh. And then yeah, that's like an old like almost like Mark's brother style reveal.

Oh, great. Yeah, it's hard to get beat. We're trying to get people with stuff back in the show. And you know, they don't know to last minute unless it's heraldor Rivera. They're not coming. Oh my God. I mean, especially once you start going into the music world,

like they're on their own schedule. Everybody in music does whatever they feel like. What about Steve Martin? And he goes, what about Geraldo Rivera? Well, and he goes, he's circling the building. Any time you say, what do you do? He's circling the building. That was a long time.

I'm still in that one. What about Geraldo? Geraldo is the one that was always circling. We can learn. We'll do that sometimes, or he's just like, so and so is here. So put them in it and you're like, you know, Steve's coming. Yeah. We did a laser cat and it opens with him having dinner with Senator Dodd.

Oh, wow. And we were like, yeah, that was definitely who we were thinking for this. Yeah. He was around. If you could have tapped him up and threw him around at a party, he'd had Steve come in a Hollywood minute and stand behind me and just listen to it and drink, sip a drink.

Oh my God. And he goes, I want a drink, and I want to sip it with a straw, and we're like, okay. Fuck off. And then he just did, yeah, me. Steve Martin might fuck me a roll. Like, he's saying anything after?

At the end, he goes, I did a joke about him. I go, he's in a new movie, where he thinks he's cool. Hey, I have my shirt open. I'm Matt Dillon. And then he's standing behind me and then he taps me and I go, oh, and then he tells me to leave. And then he sits down and does some jokes. And are they about you or just whatever he made fun of me? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But you got him. He was that's the deal. Since you humor value. I saw him back. I saw him back. I saw him back.

I saw him back. I saw him back. I saw him back. I saw him back. I saw him back. I saw him back. I saw him back. I saw him back.

You know, because you want to have a great day, but he's got Coke all over his face. You got it, yeah. Of my own works, thank you for bringing up my own works. Oh, that was great.

I am proud of that one. It came together nice. Yeah, I think it has a, well, it's just, it steps outside all the other ones. It's just so different. That was good. It's all beautiful. Yes, and it's a different kind of song for us.

It was more musical style. We shot down on commerce, which is like my favorite street. And made in Utopian. Yes, in front of the Cherry Lane theater. We've shot there a few times. We shot this Aquedina Jodwone with Fred down there too. I love that street.

Anyway. Wait, I forget to ask about Digman. Oh, yeah, that's my show. Digman is a show. By the way, saw a billboard for it. I'm going to wait for it. Oh, she's ready. Yeah, I saw it too. I was super. I was like, yeah, it's real. I was thinking of the voice. I wrote down my window and said, interviewing him. Yeah. And I'm, me, I was like, please, looking like Dana, I've seen this. Do billboards are all that matters. It's as it out already, Garne, oh, we've been... March 22nd.

Oh, I just see the South Park guy. Hi, how are you? Hi, just shit, my name is Sam. Hey, this kid just fucked me in the ass. I'm like, I'm really good with this show. I can't believe what they get away with. When I see those clips on Instagram, I go, this is from a real show or is it just a clip they made up?

It's a Saturday on a show, filthy. I like it in my ass. I like it in my ass. Yeah, they're in print. Hey you guys, self-ark guys, Trey and Matt. And Matt, if you guys ever want to come on the podcast. Yeah, I was just going to be here. I was going to be here.

Yeah. What's, yeah. Digmann, it's an Arche. He's an Archeologist. They call him Archeese. It's a show set in a world where archaeologists are the biggest celebrities in the world. So, like, there's like a Met Gala, but it's the Arche Gala.

And everyone's wondering, like, what museum they're going to be hired by. And it's super silly. I made it with my buddy, Neil Campbell, who wrote on Brooklyn 9.9 and comedy bang bang and stuff. And I've been working on it for fucking two and a half years. It is. How many hours do you have to take so long? First season's eight. And we're hoping there'll be another one.

Yeah, it was funny. I just watched it last night and there's an assistant archaeologist. Yes, Mietr Gihari, who's super funny. Okay, I was wondering who that was. Yeah. Yeah, there's a season two. Do you need any guests voices? Are you and would you guys want to do?

Yeah, if we got motherfucking Emperor's No Groove right here. All right. All right, I was thinking that one. I can do two things. This is where I'm at. I can do a llama or's new groove right here. I'm on the fucking groove. I was thinking that was, I can do two things. This is where I'm at. I can do a llama or an invisible man. Okay, first of all, I think that sounds the same. Let's hear the llama.

No, because they all say, the llama is, look at me and my bad self. Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. No touchy, yeah. That was one that was a wrap. That's a funny movie. That was a great one. That was a great one.

Yeah, you and Werburton. Come on This was solid. The poison goose goes poison He and got him worth a kit playing Esma. We're so hilarious. Yeah It's a really just like shockingly funny. Is it? I could want you to come out took me three years 90s three years to shoot it. Oh, it's so hard. It was mocap Say it again motion capture I don't know if it was mocap. Did you get it through a general? Did you think it was selling after it? Did he get it through a snack? Oh, I snagged it to a general general Disney

General meetings are where you go in and they tell you you're good and then nothing ever happens correct I had one a couple weeks ago. They just want to, they just want to, do you like to play twins? They go, you should be a, you should be a movie. A movie, a guy's in the scene. Right. How would you like to clumps it?

The clumps, but more clumps. The white clumps. That's like the Adi Murphy movie. It's called clumps it. Yeah, this is what we all call it. You do it. And you're more than one part of your clumps in it. See what they do is they cut tape. They let them do four hours of makeup Change and they start the camera. Yeah, it's like magic. Yes. Once he did it It kind of shit. I've been retired. I think because that was that like you're just like how is this possible?

No one understood One guy's our senior sometimes That's true. I don't think that was are seeing you sometimes. That's true. I don't think that was in this. What are the movies? Coming to America. Just came to me. Okay. So, Emper's new groove. I'll play Lama and here, but the show Digman is a, it is funny. It's funny. I was just one. Thank you. It's Andy Sandberg. Come on. So, yeah. Well, that's the, I mean, not everything. Not everything you ever do is like, we're going hard, funny, but this one is that. this one is just jokes We're trying to do as much and it's a good story. So you

FG 13 or soft are it was kind of it's a little it's there's a lot of stuff on there Everything's in but when it airs on network, it'll be bleeped the fuck so we bleeped and everything else can air What is that network mean comedy central? Yeah, oh so because it's they've got a few in there, but it's not overdone No, no, no, we try to sort of parse them out. No, it's clever, but there are a couple of times I go, oh, it's a bad word. Yeah, it's not soft and nasty. But that was kind of the idea.

Like we worked together on Brooklyn. Thanks. And we loved making Brooklyn, but it's NBC. So there were plenty of times where we were like, we were like, just want to make a show where we don't Brooklyn, but it's NBC. So there were plenty of times where we were like, we were like, just wanna make a show where we don't have to cut. Just something borderline gets killed. I've done that before and you go,

oh, this isn't even, we gotta compete out there. Exactly, exactly. It's very hard to argue because you're like, who's gonna care? Yes, our hope is that we made something that people in comedy will like it. They say that the half hour show, network show is kind of the best schedule for a human being.

Well, yours was even harder. Mine was harder than his. He did it live. When the straight side. You would 17 hours a week, right? About 16, five, 15, five, 12. And once it's like a hit, and everyone knows their parts too,

and no one's stressed, you just show up, smash the audiences there to love it. Oh yeah. And you were single camera, so. Will and Grace got down to a science four day weeks, three day weeks. You know, I worked at Radford as a PA. I worked on Spin City. Oh, really?

I can't believe that. I can't believe that. Yeah. Get out of here, Sarge. He does. Oh, you guys both. Hey guys, what are we doing here? Exactly.

He was like, slapped my hand. He went, I am not your friend. That's right. And I was like, okay, sorry, sorry, Lourdes, sorry, sorry. I like Lourdes, it says anything like that. It's still my friend.

Do you remember any hornisms? And we always do this on the show. I mean, he does, the value of water, everyone knows that one. Yeah, I mean, he always starts things. It's that thing, you know, because it's like that thing. And like, yeah. It's like, it's like, you know, it'd be better if it was like funny. It'd be like a really, really good show.

It helps with my follow-up. It would help if it was good. No, yeah. This is last, we have two weeks off. It would help if it was good. It was good. It was good. A load note.

You know, I know that that's all designed to relax us. Emily Spivey, I don't know if you guys know her, she was a writer for a very long time on the show. She used to do a bit in the rewrite table. Where is it gonna be R8 now? R8, R8, where the phone would ring, or she'd pretend the phone ring and she'd pick it up and go, hello.

Oh, hey, Lauren. Oh, thank you. No, I know, I worked really hard on it. I love you, too. If I basically act like he was calling to give her tons of compliments because he never gives them any way. He'll always compliment not when you're really killing a big thing, but like some exit or when you have one line and some voice.

I thought it was breathtaking. The one time he ever said something overtly nice about something I did in front of everybody. It was a great day. It was the meeting between Dress and Air. He was like, can we cut out of that a little faster? Very funny by the way. And I was just like, they melted to a puddle.

And I was like, God, why does he have so much power over us? I know. I'm never again. Well, you know, we've seen everybody. Exactly. Every American sketch player and every back. No, they sure. You know, it was every move somewhat equal to all those people that have been there before. Yes. And believe me, Andy Semberg was very, very, very valuable. All right. And I got to go. I can't, I can't answer any of my own questions anymore. About you that I answered. Fair, fair, fair.

Fill in the blank, I'm really bugged by bugs. Yeah, that's the right answer. My dream job is, I have it. Wow. Yeah. Positivity. It's not a bit, I can't believeivity. It's not a bit. Like, I can't believe it.

It's a group talk for the sense. Okay. I did a Chronic commercial with. Yeah, Snoop Dogg. I tell you one thing about those commercials. When you do them, you're like, oh, it's talking Snoop. These are funny. This is going to be great.

And then you don't realize they're going to air them seven and seven million times and and make people hate you. Even if they like it the first hundred times, but that's, I guess that's, I should have known. They're well known. What was your life, your aunties? You know, there was always a little thing on the beach.

On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach.

On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach.'s more common, by the way. I know, I know, I sold out. God damn it. I took the cheque. No, Andy. I had a free lunch like that. I turned out so many commercials in the 90s.

I regretted to this day. Did you? It in commerce now is cool. Ryan Reynolds just made 200 million of some of the gin products. He makes so much money. Yeah, there's nothing. Stop it.

There's nothing wrong with that. All that means is freedom to do what you want. It is annoying that he's making so much money. Andy's good. Yeah, and I've seen really nice. Yeah, there's nothing stop me. There's nothing wrong with that. All that means is freedom to do what you want. It isn't knowing that he's making so much money and he's good. And it seems really nice. Yeah, I'm funny. You wish he sucked a little bit. Yeah.

But instead he's like funny. He's an advertising company, a management company. It's kind of phone company. And his movies are all big and you want to watch them. It's more than Call of the Fiend now. He's good. What a... It's the president.

He's the president of the universe. Yeah. This will be you, we'll the president of the universe. Yeah. Oh, this will be you won't want to do this one. Uh, Fred Armerson is, oh man. That's good. I get too much, too much talent. My friend, yeah, but also so good, so funny. Just makes me smile every time I see him.

He's on last week, right? He's delightfully honored. And by the way, speaking of no pushing, he never ever is sweaty ever. And it's always funny and weird and interesting. Yeah, I could get sweaty sometimes. But Fred never would. Spade never gets sweaty.

I'm not too sweaty, right? No, you run it nice and cool and it's always sharp. I like that. It's true, but you and me, we want it. We want it. Yeah, we can get it easy. It's like, you bought the top. We're like, I got a skill set. and me, we want it. We want it. Yeah, we can do it. It's like, it's too bad. The town. We're like, I got a skill set.

Let me show you my mother. Are you going to win? Christen Wigg is also my friend and one of the greatest. Yeah, yeah, one of the best. Yeah, when I was doing regis out there, I was guest hosting and just kind of rehearsing all week. And then she comes in as Kathy Lee with all this stuff. It was like, I was kind of almost star struck by

the meticulous business she had. Her energy, her, she was hypnotizing this other rhythm. It was really interesting to be around that. She's kind of like, like, Steph Curry of SNL where you're like, she's super quiet and seems kind of just keeping herself and then all of a sudden, you realize she's been fucking working hard and is an absolute beast.

Ready to unleash. And like, as soon as that audience is there, you're like, oh, shit, I gotta get out of the way. Oh, she has been thinking about this. Is it okay to mention your wife is a famous musician? Yeah, I love my wife. Tina Newsom, Joanna.

Joanna, sorry. That's okay. Want to state school? Joanna Newsom, Joanna, Joanna, sorry. That's okay. Want to stay school. Joanna Newsom, singer, songwriter, heart player, piano and vocals. I listen to some of it. So I think that's pretty hip. You're both artists. Yeah. She understands. She's, I mean, she's much cooler than me, obviously. But yeah, that she seemed incredibly cool. She's that. We're just, uh, what else? She says, I, she says, I, so now just to wrap it up. So you're a dad now and so that,

well, your world has changed. And now you're, and your wife are gonna balance this thing with your work. Yes. You have a plan. It's hard. It's very hard. It is.

It's interesting. Like figuring out when to work, when not to, when who works, when, where? Yeah. Spade, what do you think? I think you're heading the right direction. That's my general. Spade, do you think you want kids?

Yeah. What do you think? I have a daughter and she's here, not in here in the house, I kicked her out. But she's here and we're gonna go to the lunch right after this. How old is your daughter? She's 14. We're gonna take her to Beverly Hills to pull,

you know, that little diner in the Beverly Hills hotel. No, we're going to something more grimy. Oh, really? Yeah, in and out for her. I don't want her to know that I have any money. Just keep it quiet. Well, there's a little bit of a giveaway. Oh, yeah, the LA kids just think that's what houses are.

I know, this house. I'm just kidding. You were full. Andy Sandberg has been our guest and he's been very nice. And it's like probably here at this point. No, I would do this for another seven hours. And you're gonna give us a bite of that.

I'm gonna give us a bite of that. How much fun it was to show laser cats. Oh, I do like laser cats. When you see it, you're like, that's just kids stuff. That's so much fun. It was very fun. Like, sure. I'm so, okay. Okay, see it, you're like, that's just kids stuff. That's so much fun. It was very fun. Like, sure. Okay.

Okay, I just want to add some up. Yeah. Andy Sandberg, one of the all-time great Saturday Night Live. What? Revolutionized Saturday Night Live with digital video. Probably has two to 300 million hits on YouTube. Between all those videos. Like, well, no YouTube views. That's on YouTube. Between all those videos. Lany?

Well, no. YouTube, you have to say like, definitely more than that. Also, one of the ones who talk about it. 55 million just for on a boat. I think I'm on a boat has well over 200 million. Okay, so you're a cool, you're the new Balian. You're the new Balian.

I'm kidding. I finally listen to the beginning of the podcast. I think it was obvious. I was the new Rebecca Black, but thank you. Okay. I would have been nervous if I'd known that stat, but yeah, it's pretty monstrous. All of them are from years ago, by the way.

Doesn't matter. Aggrigget. I think we have over a billion views on our YouTube channel, which I know because what else am I going to do during COVID? And you could pay $2,900 to look at the views. Check the stats. But now there's single songs. Single songs by pop stars that have like over two

or three billion or so. Yeah. Mr. Lizard has seven billion hits on his latest song, Shabbatou, no I'm kidding. I'm trying to watch funny and bad bunny. Mr. Lizard, we have been trying to get Andy for a while because people ask about like, there's people they really want to hear from.

So it's nice that you. Well, your impact on the show is huge. You're part of the whole story of SNL. Yeah. And so we were very happy to have you. And there's a chunk of time. It's like, you know, good to have you. You did, you had a lane that no one else had. Well, thanks. I mean, it's very much with Akira and your Amitou.
