  • Summary

  • It is a privilege to welcome Saturday Night Network founder and host Jon Schneider to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.

    In September 2020, Jon launched the Saturday Night Network (SNN), offering insight into NBC’s long-running live show Saturday Night Live (SNL). SNN has become a top-charting North American TV Review podcast network that features rotating roundtables starring critically acclaimed journalists from top media publications and superfans.

    In addition to hosting, Jon Schneider recruits the panelists and manages the day-to-day administrative duties, marketing, and distribution of the podcasts. He also manages a team of interns who create social media content daily for their community. As a result, SNN has become the most followed SNL podcast on social media. He also manages the logistics of booking guests and panelists for all their podcasts and making sure they are fully prepared with show notes before each recording. The Saturday Night Network charts weekly in the top 40 TV Review podcasts in the United States and Canada and is watched by thousands of SNL fans each week on YouTube and all podcast platforms.

    SNN’s content includes its Hot Takes, where they go LIVE right after the action wraps up at Studio 8H at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York. To commemorate SNL’s fiftieth anniversary season, Jon teamed up with James Stephens on the historical mini-series Everything You NEED to Know About SNL, which breaks down the series season-by-season and reveals insights into the show’s cast members, sketches, memorable characters, and backstage stories.

    SNN also welcomed a plethora of guests with ties to the long-running NBC show. Current cast members Andrew Dismukes, Heidi Gardner, James Austin Johnson, and Mikey Day, along with previous cast members Bobby Moynihan, Chris Redd, Darrell Hammond, Denny Dillion, and Punkie Johnson, all visited the podcast’s SNL Stories.

    On this episode of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Jon Schneider shared SNN’s origin story, discussed their in-depth dives into several of the show’s early seasons, and expressed his hopes for SNL 50.
