• Saturday Night Live, Season 50 Episode 15: Mikey Madison
    Mar 30 2025

    Ryan and Mike are back along with the show in its second-to-last batch of episodes. We look at the surprising sidelining of this week's host, the increasingly high profile of Marcello Hernandex, and the proper technique for avoiding lines at events.

  • Saturday Night Live, Season 50 Episode 13: Shane Gillis
    Mar 2 2025

    Ryan and Mike are back after a long, post-SNL 50th Anniversary content hangover that may or may not have carried over into the content of this week's episode. This was a complicated one to unpack for sure!

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

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

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

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

    Enjoy!

    Feb 16 2025

    One of us was there! One of us watched from home! We both had thoughts!

    Hear what it was like to be in Radio City Music Hall, and what the performances there might suggest about what sketches appear in the 50th Anniversary Special.
