<v Speaker 6>I was born in Springfield, Illinois?

0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so too outsiders of the Midwest US East Coasters.

0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:23.840
<v Speaker 1>In our minds, it's either Chicago or not Chicago, right.

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:25.400
<v Speaker 6>So it's definitely not Chicago.

0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:26.480
<v Speaker 1>How not Chicago is it?

0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:29.160
<v Speaker 5>It's very not Chicago. I mean not only was there

0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:32.520
<v Speaker 5>for a year and a half. Okay, so I can't

0:08:32.520 --> 0:08:36.240
<v Speaker 5>say I remember much of Springfield. It's the capital of Illinois. Well,

0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:37.080
<v Speaker 5>pretty exciting.

0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:38.560
<v Speaker 3>Also where the Simpsons live.

0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:43.440
<v Speaker 5>And I actually I saw that's a I think that's

0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:48.160
<v Speaker 5>where Barack Obama announced Joe Biden as his VP in

0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:49.160
<v Speaker 5>two thousand.

0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:50.720
<v Speaker 6>And you were there to see it, you know it

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:52.360
<v Speaker 6>three and a half hours.

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I see Abraham freezing.

0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:55.760
<v Speaker 6>An Abraham Lincoln.

0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a role gossip girl.

0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:00.080
<v Speaker 4>I looked up famous Abraham's.

0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Souh you only lived there a year and a half

0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:06.320
<v Speaker 1>in that and then.

0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:09.000
<v Speaker 6>Right outside of Chicago, okay, park.

0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Are you okay?

0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 6>Anybody that's did you say Simpsons?

0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:17.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's so that's why Springfold.

0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:21.599
<v Speaker 6>Well, no, that was just a weird coincidence.

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:26.240
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, there's two questions about Chicago. One or as

0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:29.400
<v Speaker 1>as a resident. Are you sort of dismayed at the

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 1>sort of hashtag what about Chicago staying that's on the

0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:41.600
<v Speaker 1>city right now, or at least the kind of the

0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:44.520
<v Speaker 1>the the cloud that looms over the idea of Chicago,

0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Like what is your version of Chicago.

0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:52.719
<v Speaker 5>It's weird because I when I, I mean, I grew up.

0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:55.040
<v Speaker 6>I did a lot of theater in Chicago as a kid.

0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:56.040
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:09:56.920 --> 0:09:58.120
<v Speaker 6>And then I was my.

0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:01.559
<v Speaker 5>Dad worked and pr and Chicago and did a lot

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.560
<v Speaker 5>for the Democratic Party. And again, when I think of Chicago,

0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:07.080
<v Speaker 5>it's all like Obama for me because that's the years

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:11.560
<v Speaker 5>I was there. I think it's always And I have

0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:14.520
<v Speaker 5>a good friend, my little sister. She's my fake little

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:17.599
<v Speaker 5>sister from the South Side, so of course her experience

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 5>was very different than mine growing up.

0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:22.760
<v Speaker 1>But I think, wait a minute, I'm sorry, I just

0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:26.040
<v Speaker 1>we have to acknowledge like I only felt like black

0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:30.080

0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:07.240
<v Speaker 5>five years younger.

0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:09.760

0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:22.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I see, Actually what I want to know. I

0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:26.720
<v Speaker 1>don't think we've interviewed anyone in the comedy world from

0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:30.520
<v Speaker 1>Chicago on the show. I don't think we have. What

0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:30.920
<v Speaker 1>is it?

0:11:31.320 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 4>Why is something to do with mustard and ketchup and

0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:34.560
<v Speaker 4>hot talks?

0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:37.320
<v Speaker 1>No, that's that's a letter. I want to know why

0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 1>ketchup is not allowed on You know, I.

0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 5>Don't even eat hot dogs or red meat. I'm not

0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:44.760
<v Speaker 5>the one to ask, but I do know.

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:45.760
<v Speaker 1>You don't.

0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:49.800
<v Speaker 5>You're not supposed to. You get kicked mustard only mustard

0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:50.760
<v Speaker 5>and whatever.

0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:54.680
<v Speaker 1>What is it? I've heard some I've heard some talk,

0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:59.840
<v Speaker 1>and I believe that this goes back to the hinds

0:11:59.840 --> 0:12:02.640
<v Speaker 1>face family from nearby Pittsburgh sort of having a beef

0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:10.240
<v Speaker 1>with the what's the billionaire family from Chicago, the pizza Prits. Yeah,

0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:15.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm hearing that the beef starts there, so you order

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:21.640
<v Speaker 1>must have too. Well maybe even it was like, okay, well,

0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:25.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to be the person like spreading false propaganda.

0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:29.160
<v Speaker 1>What I do know is that you get laughed out

0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:30.240
<v Speaker 1>of any establishment.

0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:32.720
<v Speaker 6>I think it's just.

0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:35.360
<v Speaker 5>Like Chicago has a couple of things they just like

0:12:35.480 --> 0:12:37.280
<v Speaker 5>to be stubborn about.

0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:39.719
<v Speaker 3>I think, well, your pizza sucks, not you.

0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:41.559
<v Speaker 6>But I'm just saying you don't like Chicago pizza.

0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:46.760
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's going to kill you so good.

0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Well will kill us too.

0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:53.360
<v Speaker 5>So there's really I will say it's my favorite city

0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:56.160
<v Speaker 5>to eat at. Some of the best restaurants I've ever

0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:59.800
<v Speaker 5>even just like a small like little Greek resturant, Little Time.

0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:01.000
<v Speaker 6>It's all so good.

0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:04.280
<v Speaker 1>I've been Okay, So as of this taping, for some reason,

0:13:04.360 --> 0:13:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I've been booked in Chicago every weekend for the last

0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:07.520

<v Speaker 5>You're jinxing yourself. Now, I will say, you're going to

0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:19.800
<v Speaker 5>be stuck there.

0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:23.760
<v Speaker 1>I will. I will say that both times in the

0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:26.000
<v Speaker 1>winter it was like fifty nine degrees. For some reason,

0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I came dressed for like all right, where's it at?

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Where's that? Where's the cold? Where's the cold? And I

0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:33.680
<v Speaker 1>was sweating like it was it was spring weather.

<v Speaker 5>I mean I probably unpredictable. Yeah, but it's the worst winters. Oh,

0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:43.680
<v Speaker 5>I have like I have like nightmares about it. I know,

0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:44.520
<v Speaker 5>thinking about it.

0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:50.480
<v Speaker 1>I know, we know. But I will say that I tried. Okay,

0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:56.120
<v Speaker 1>they told me not to call it the illuminati. Illuminatisis okay,

0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:59.959
<v Speaker 1>but I love Manatis. There has to be a connection

0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:01.240
<v Speaker 1>into the Illuminati.

0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:02.120

<v Speaker 6>stay away.

0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:46.320
<v Speaker 1>So how do you feel about New York pizza?

0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:48.840

<v Speaker 5>pizza I didn't like here, and I I don't want

0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:01.440
<v Speaker 5>to say where it's from because I don't want to.

0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:03.960

<v Speaker 4>I don't leave Manhattan.

0:15:19.520 --> 0:15:21.480
<v Speaker 6>I've been to Brooklyn three times.

<v Speaker 1>York, but there's awesome pizza.

0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:30.920
<v Speaker 4>But it's not like every slice you get is going

0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:31.840
<v Speaker 4>to be like right.

0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:35.960
<v Speaker 1>New York See. For me, though, it's it's like as

0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:42.440
<v Speaker 1>far as the Korean Food Fair, Chinatown, even soul food

0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Jamaican spots in Brooklyn.

0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:47.480
<v Speaker 3>I've that's what the culture is.

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.840
<v Speaker 1>I've slowed up. I've kind of well, I've just discovered

0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:54.520
<v Speaker 1>that Queens is like I'm I might have to do

0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:57.640
<v Speaker 1>my next book. Strictly on restaurants in Queens, Like some

0:15:57.720 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 1>of the best restaurants in New York are those family restaurants. Yes,

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.120
<v Speaker 1>and Queens. You got it. You gotta venture out the city. See,

0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:36.080
<v Speaker 1>explore the city.

0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:39.520
<v Speaker 5>For I have such bad anxiety. I could, I would.

0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:43.240
<v Speaker 5>I could never drive in this city. Really well, this

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:44.880
<v Speaker 5>is the hardest city of driving in the country.

0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:48.440

<v Speaker 6>To Yeah I can.

0:16:57.080 --> 0:17:01.560
<v Speaker 3>It's really expensive. You're like like fifteen dollar fifteen seconds.

0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:02.080
<v Speaker 3>I can't.

0:17:02.520 --> 0:17:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't.

0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:06.040
<v Speaker 5>I will never feel okay about a person. It's weird

0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:07.160
<v Speaker 5>acting like a.

<v Speaker 6>Horse to me.

0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:11.400
<v Speaker 5>It just makes it feels like I would the whole

0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:12.920
<v Speaker 5>time I'd be apologizing.

0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:14.920
<v Speaker 6>I'd be asking if I could help.

0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.359
<v Speaker 4>It would just make me watching the meters.

0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Let me interject. All right, so Liya's clowning me about

0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:26.840

<v Speaker 1>I would never let my friends see me in such

0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:32.080
<v Speaker 1>a swinky, swinky car. So I have like my very

<v Speaker 1>I got to get around and go pointing in point B.

0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:50.920
<v Speaker 1>The reason why I got that swinky car was because

0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I learned the hard way. And this is pre uber

0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:57.640

<v Speaker 1>I was rushing to Penn station and a poor rickshaw

0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:06.159
<v Speaker 1>guy had to take me. And this is when I

0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:08.400
<v Speaker 1>was like four hundred pounds.

0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:09.479

<v Speaker 1>that long to haul like five hundred pounds. Where the Yeah,

<v Speaker 1>Them, I am. I'm addicted to overtipping. That's that's one

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:10.360
<v Speaker 1>of my And that's not even a humble brag, like

0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:14.080
<v Speaker 1>one of those people that get gets into those like

0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:18.560
<v Speaker 1>you know the pretty woman. Uh that watch costs two

<v Speaker 1>of them people that will like defy you like I

0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:27.439
<v Speaker 1>have money. That that sort of thing.

0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:30.320
<v Speaker 4>You know, sound engineers except tips.

0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:31.960
<v Speaker 1>By the way, that's.

0:19:31.840 --> 0:19:32.879
<v Speaker 3>What Derek said behind you.

0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:38.639
<v Speaker 1>That's what Steves are a sound engineer at thirty Rock anyway,

0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:45.520
<v Speaker 1>So why is Chicago the who dubbed it the or

0:19:45.520 --> 0:19:50.520
<v Speaker 1>who christened it as the Comedy Epicenter, Like, why does

0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:52.440
<v Speaker 1>one have to go to Chicago?

0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:55.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I think it's just so.

0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 5>I think, well, there's a lot of theater in Chicago.

0:19:59.760 --> 0:20:03.680
<v Speaker 5>It's cheaper than New York. And is it la to live?

0:20:04.119 --> 0:20:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Is it?

0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:08.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's like five dollars probably. Oh my apartment cheaper,

0:20:08.760 --> 0:20:09.600
<v Speaker 3>fight dollar is cheaper.

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:12.960
<v Speaker 5>Well, I was living in it was a weird little

0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.200
<v Speaker 5>artist studio, but it was and this was a lot

0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:15.879
<v Speaker 5>of money for me.

0:20:16.359 --> 0:20:19.200
<v Speaker 6>But it was like six hundred dollars a month my rent.

0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:23.680
<v Speaker 1>What year was that was two thousand Williamsburg of Chicago.

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:25.160
<v Speaker 6>No, this is old town.

0:20:25.600 --> 0:20:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Wow, I don't know the section, so like what would

0:20:27.920 --> 0:20:28.720
<v Speaker 1>your town be here?

0:20:28.920 --> 0:20:32.320
<v Speaker 5>So that's uh, queen, I would never know. That's very

0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:34.480
<v Speaker 5>second city. But it was like a nice neighborhood. And

0:20:34.640 --> 0:20:39.280
<v Speaker 5>my first apartment it was a two bedroom. It was

0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:41.600
<v Speaker 5>bit and it was like we paid seven hundred dollars.

0:20:41.920 --> 0:20:44.920
<v Speaker 6>Uh, I had a roommate. Yeah, so we each paid.

0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:46.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean second with your friends. I'm curious what it

0:20:47.000 --> 0:20:48.080
<v Speaker 3>was gone up? That's interesting.

0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:50.720
<v Speaker 6>I mean I'm sure it's right. It's been a while,

0:20:50.880 --> 0:20:51.679
<v Speaker 6>but yeah.

0:20:51.920 --> 0:21:05.280
<v Speaker 1>No, so you what was your childhood like, like, what

0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:10.800
<v Speaker 1>was your come to Jesus moment with flirting with comedy?

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Because I don't like when do people finally admit, like,

0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:18.280
<v Speaker 1>I want to be in comedy? Was it that you

0:21:18.320 --> 0:21:19.200
<v Speaker 1>wanted to be an actress for?

0:21:19.440 --> 0:21:20.000
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I was.

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:22.440
<v Speaker 5>I did a lot of like straight theater growing up,

0:21:22.600 --> 0:21:25.040
<v Speaker 5>and I did a lot in Chicago. I did my

0:21:25.119 --> 0:21:30.440
<v Speaker 5>first professional show and they were all like dramatic musicals

0:21:31.160 --> 0:21:33.360
<v Speaker 5>growing up, and then I went to college. It wasn't

0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:37.119
<v Speaker 5>until college I went to cal Arts. Tonight, a teacher

0:21:38.280 --> 0:21:40.480
<v Speaker 5>I was doing a s from Angels in America because

0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:44.359
<v Speaker 5>when I was eighteen, everybody wanted to do Angels and

0:21:44.800 --> 0:21:48.920
<v Speaker 5>people were laughing. It's like, I'm wait being dramatic right now?

0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:52.520
<v Speaker 5>And then the teacher suggests that I take a class

0:21:52.560 --> 0:21:53.440
<v Speaker 5>at the ground Legs And.

0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:55.560
<v Speaker 6>That was like I'd always I mean, I thought I

0:21:55.680 --> 0:21:57.639
<v Speaker 6>was funny, but I was also like, but I'm a

0:21:57.680 --> 0:21:58.399
<v Speaker 6>serious actor.

0:21:58.720 --> 0:22:02.240
<v Speaker 1>What it is I really want to be series instead? Yeah?

0:22:02.280 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, well I think even now that's how I started.

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.119
<v Speaker 5>I think like a lot of comedy is just human

0:22:08.119 --> 0:22:10.920
<v Speaker 5>beings feeling anything can be funny.

0:22:11.480 --> 0:22:16.280
<v Speaker 1>That reminds me speaking of SNL. I didn't realize this

0:22:16.440 --> 0:22:18.760
<v Speaker 1>until maybe a week and a half ago that Will

0:22:18.840 --> 0:22:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Farrell and Kristen Wigg actually did a lifetime movie. Yes seriously,

0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:26.280
<v Speaker 1>like they did it.

0:22:26.680 --> 0:22:27.199
<v Speaker 3>I remembered it.

0:22:27.320 --> 0:22:31.360
<v Speaker 1>They did it seriously, but as a tongue in chee. Yeah,

0:22:31.800 --> 0:22:34.679
<v Speaker 1>thing to be funny, really smart.

0:22:34.800 --> 0:22:35.920
<v Speaker 6>Yeah yeah, oh I love it.

0:22:36.040 --> 0:22:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:38.320
<v Speaker 6>I mean they're both are they alumni from?

0:22:38.560 --> 0:22:38.760
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:40.400
<v Speaker 6>No, they're Groundlings?

0:22:41.080 --> 0:22:45.480
<v Speaker 3>See between Groundlings and Second City? They got both, So

0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:47.119
<v Speaker 3>of course why.

0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:50.600
<v Speaker 5>Will say l A Like Groundlings is very character based right,

0:22:51.560 --> 0:22:53.920
<v Speaker 5>and Chicago there's like, you know.

0:22:54.040 --> 0:22:56.680
<v Speaker 3>So break it down to people because somebody, I feel.

0:22:56.480 --> 0:22:58.479
<v Speaker 5>Like I'm the worst to break it down, so this

0:22:58.520 --> 0:23:02.560
<v Speaker 5>will be very simplified. Probably comedy nerds will yell at me,

0:23:02.680 --> 0:23:06.679
<v Speaker 5>but so la Groundlings, it's all very charactery.

0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:10.720
<v Speaker 6>And then New York improv is very like fast.

0:23:12.040 --> 0:23:14.520
<v Speaker 5>It's closer to like what I would think of as

0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:17.879
<v Speaker 5>like when you hear British comedy or English comedy, you know.

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:21.400
<v Speaker 6>And then Chicago does weird you do.

0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:27.160
<v Speaker 5>Like the you know, we do slower artsy fartsy sometimes,

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:31.960
<v Speaker 5>but but I would say like improv is more Chicago,

0:23:32.040 --> 0:23:34.840
<v Speaker 5>and sketch should be more La, and it feels like

0:23:34.840 --> 0:23:36.480
<v Speaker 5>when you're doing it in LA, you're doing it to

0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:38.879
<v Speaker 5>get a part TV jobs.

0:23:39.000 --> 0:23:39.480
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:23:39.520 --> 0:23:41.640
<v Speaker 1>So is there was there an end game for you

0:23:41.800 --> 0:23:46.440
<v Speaker 1>in entering Second City or pretty much people know that

0:23:46.680 --> 0:23:48.280
<v Speaker 1>the road that leads to s And.

0:23:48.320 --> 0:23:51.040
<v Speaker 6>Now I would never have ever said that.

0:23:52.640 --> 0:23:56.480
<v Speaker 5>Because I just don't like to set myself up to

0:23:56.520 --> 0:23:57.120
<v Speaker 5>be let down.

0:23:57.200 --> 0:23:59.000
<v Speaker 6>I like to set the bar very low.

0:23:59.400 --> 0:24:01.760
<v Speaker 5>But I, uh, I was just like, you know, if

0:24:01.760 --> 0:24:04.360
<v Speaker 5>I if this is what my life, if I get

0:24:04.359 --> 0:24:07.560
<v Speaker 5>to do like some shows every now and then and

0:24:08.000 --> 0:24:10.439
<v Speaker 5>at Second City and I out, if this is like

0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:13.919
<v Speaker 5>where the top that I get, I'd be happy.

0:24:14.200 --> 0:24:17.959
<v Speaker 1>So what is the process? I'm only asking because of God?

0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:22.119
<v Speaker 1>How do I see this? Okay? So I once Okay,

0:24:22.160 --> 0:24:29.119
<v Speaker 1>So I once dated uh a comedian Okay, and uh

0:24:30.920 --> 0:24:36.440
<v Speaker 1>I felt, see, I have it miserable. I have. I have.

0:24:37.320 --> 0:24:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I have a relationship with failure, not as an f

0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:45.240
<v Speaker 1>work but as a learning experience. And I feel like

0:24:45.840 --> 0:24:49.520
<v Speaker 1>in your years of comedy, it's almost like if you

0:24:49.560 --> 0:24:51.479
<v Speaker 1>stay in your comfort zone and only perform for your

0:24:51.520 --> 0:24:54.600
<v Speaker 1>friends at like this one bar, you're not going to grow.

0:24:54.600 --> 0:24:57.120
<v Speaker 1>And I kind of had to tell her, like you

0:24:57.160 --> 0:25:01.000
<v Speaker 1>have to go like stop going to your normal where

0:25:01.040 --> 0:25:04.000
<v Speaker 1>you know your peeps are and go to other spots

0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:08.000
<v Speaker 1>to see if it works there as well. And it

0:25:08.080 --> 0:25:10.760
<v Speaker 1>was kind of hard hitted about it and then really

0:25:10.760 --> 0:25:15.320
<v Speaker 1>got a life lesson. So she went to Second City?

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:17.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, experimental spot.

0:25:19.000 --> 0:25:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Do you know? She left and went to Second City?

0:25:23.000 --> 0:25:26.000
<v Speaker 1>And I guess under the hopes of I'm ready, so

0:25:26.040 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I know I'm gonna go to Second City and then

0:25:28.080 --> 0:25:30.879
<v Speaker 1>in three years I too can be Tina Fey like

0:25:30.920 --> 0:25:36.160
<v Speaker 1>that's what I think, or and maybe she's in there,

0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:40.040
<v Speaker 1>like you can.

0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:44.359
<v Speaker 6>Stay there, you can just chill, and yeah people do.

0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:47.200
<v Speaker 3>Because that's i mean, after you getting paid for shows.

0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:48.520
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I guess that's your life's now.

0:25:48.680 --> 0:25:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And what I want to know is that when

0:25:52.240 --> 0:25:54.879
<v Speaker 1>people come, first of all, what is the process of

0:25:54.920 --> 0:25:57.800
<v Speaker 1>Second City? Is it a school? Is it just like

0:25:58.200 --> 0:25:58.920
<v Speaker 1>what's the rehearsal?

0:25:59.480 --> 0:26:02.120
<v Speaker 5>Most people and they say they're they've done Second City,

0:26:02.160 --> 0:26:04.679
<v Speaker 5>it's not that they've been on a stage. It's that

0:26:04.680 --> 0:26:07.720
<v Speaker 5>they've taken the US there or done their own shows there.

0:26:08.160 --> 0:26:12.600
<v Speaker 5>There's there's two main theaters. I mean, it could be

0:26:12.640 --> 0:26:15.560
<v Speaker 5>totally different now. Uh. And I was on a touring

0:26:15.600 --> 0:26:18.960
<v Speaker 5>company for a while and I did a cruise ship

0:26:19.119 --> 0:26:20.159
<v Speaker 5>for four months with the.

0:26:20.280 --> 0:26:23.560
<v Speaker 1>Regent, so a second city cruise ship.

0:26:23.800 --> 0:26:25.200
<v Speaker 6>That was my first job with them, so it was

0:26:25.280 --> 0:26:25.920
<v Speaker 6>very exciting.

0:26:26.359 --> 0:26:29.760
<v Speaker 5>But then, well then it's like you're on this ship

0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:31.760
<v Speaker 5>for four months, you're just like I was never on

0:26:31.880 --> 0:26:35.960
<v Speaker 5>land at night time, which sounds crazy to say, but

0:26:36.000 --> 0:26:38.080
<v Speaker 5>I really was like, I just want to have a

0:26:38.200 --> 0:26:43.000
<v Speaker 5>night on ground. But it was so it's like by

0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:45.439
<v Speaker 5>two months and I was like, I can't tell if

0:26:45.480 --> 0:26:51.720
<v Speaker 5>it's prisoner vacation. Uh, and you're doing like very watered

0:26:51.720 --> 0:26:53.560
<v Speaker 5>down sketch comedy for.

0:26:56.480 --> 0:26:56.600
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:26:57.440 --> 0:26:59.280
<v Speaker 6>It was well, we ported in New York.

0:27:00.280 --> 0:27:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Was billed as the Second City players or.

0:27:02.320 --> 0:27:05.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah yeah, yeah, I don't think they have the contract anymore.

0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:10.159
<v Speaker 5>But it was like the first job most people do

0:27:10.800 --> 0:27:11.800
<v Speaker 5>that second City.

0:27:11.560 --> 0:27:12.800
<v Speaker 1>So that's the entry level.

0:27:13.000 --> 0:27:13.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah yeah.

0:27:14.000 --> 0:27:15.680

0:27:30.160 --> 0:27:34.359
<v Speaker 1>rewatch his facial expressions while everyone it's some of the

0:27:34.359 --> 0:27:38.280
<v Speaker 1>best shit I've ever seen. Yeah, I love that. Yeah, Okay,

0:27:38.720 --> 0:27:44.760
<v Speaker 1>And so how long was it until I'm assuming either

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Higgins or someone discovers you and suggestions.

0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:53.960
<v Speaker 5>Actually I went I got hired through IO. So there's

0:27:54.000 --> 0:27:58.560
<v Speaker 5>a couple of theaters in Probalympic, but they have to

0:27:58.640 --> 0:28:02.600
<v Speaker 5>be called It was like so lawsuitors the Olympics, you

0:28:02.600 --> 0:28:05.720
<v Speaker 5>have to say ioh yeah, okay, But it was IO

0:28:05.840 --> 0:28:09.320
<v Speaker 5>where I got my I did my showcase for Lauren

<v Speaker 5>and some of the writers.

0:28:11.640 --> 0:28:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh so you didn't have to go through the audition

0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:15.200
<v Speaker 1>process that.

0:28:15.200 --> 0:28:18.160
<v Speaker 6>A no no I did, but it just was there.

0:28:18.280 --> 0:28:22.080
<v Speaker 5>Like they go to different theaters, not because it's second city.

0:28:22.080 --> 0:28:24.359
<v Speaker 5>It's only the people that are on the stages that'll

0:28:24.359 --> 0:28:27.040
<v Speaker 5>be seen by SNL.

0:28:27.600 --> 0:28:29.720
<v Speaker 3>So wait, this is I'm sorry, I'm gonna askually like

0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:31.640
<v Speaker 3>a five year old. So this is a special show

0:28:31.680 --> 0:28:34.040
<v Speaker 3>that y'all will do because you know that they're coming.

0:28:34.160 --> 0:28:37.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and they do it in every in la I

0:28:37.760 --> 0:28:41.040
<v Speaker 5>think at different theaters they'll just be showcases pretty much.

0:28:41.080 --> 0:28:41.560
<v Speaker 6>And I would be.

0:28:41.520 --> 0:28:45.240
<v Speaker 3>Showcases for SNL or just with people or yeah, yeah

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:45.960
<v Speaker 3>for SNL.

0:28:46.360 --> 0:28:48.440
<v Speaker 1>Okay, but is it with other people in the audience

0:28:48.560 --> 0:28:50.480
<v Speaker 1>or just the seven of them in the audience?

0:28:50.600 --> 0:28:50.719
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:28:50.800 --> 0:28:51.520
<v Speaker 6>No, other people?

0:28:52.080 --> 0:28:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:56.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, my family was there and I thought I bombed

0:28:56.320 --> 0:29:00.440
<v Speaker 5>because they were so they were so nervous because they

0:29:00.440 --> 0:29:03.600
<v Speaker 5>were sitting near and lorn, and so their faces were

0:29:03.680 --> 0:29:05.240
<v Speaker 5>just like they were like ghost.

0:29:05.520 --> 0:29:07.000
<v Speaker 6>I was like, wow, that bad.

0:29:07.240 --> 0:29:10.440
<v Speaker 3>Huh did you remember what you did? You remember your I.

0:29:12.840 --> 0:29:16.160
<v Speaker 6>Did like a lady from the cruise ship.

0:29:16.240 --> 0:29:19.320
<v Speaker 5>I did her trying to bring a pineapple on the

0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:24.720
<v Speaker 5>boat or something. I think I did Sophia Vergara. Nothing great,

0:29:24.960 --> 0:29:26.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't know it was and I had never done

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:30.760
<v Speaker 5>like I wasn't an impressionist really, but it was again like, oh,

0:29:30.760 --> 0:29:33.440
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to do something that scares me and just

0:29:33.680 --> 0:29:36.800
<v Speaker 5>kind of try this out. And I took a workshop

0:29:37.040 --> 0:29:38.720
<v Speaker 5>on solo characters.

0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:45.240
<v Speaker 1>I would imagine that probably the best way to get

0:29:45.320 --> 0:29:49.240
<v Speaker 1>on the show is to be mouldable to be anything,

0:29:49.440 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. Like it's instead of like, Okay,

0:29:52.640 --> 0:29:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I do a very specific Donald Trump and then like

0:29:58.000 --> 0:30:01.960
<v Speaker 1>what happens four years if that's out? Like, but you

0:30:02.000 --> 0:30:05.080
<v Speaker 1>can be mouldable to be anything. So I almost feel

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:07.880
<v Speaker 1>as though some people go into the process, like I

0:30:07.960 --> 0:30:10.680
<v Speaker 1>know people that have tried to go through the process,

0:30:10.760 --> 0:30:15.960
<v Speaker 1>that we're kind of stuck in a category in a corner,

0:30:16.400 --> 0:30:19.760
<v Speaker 1>and they weren't mouldible. Yeah, if you, because I believe

0:30:19.920 --> 0:30:20.800
<v Speaker 1>it's malleable.

0:30:21.040 --> 0:30:24.440
<v Speaker 4>I looked at this first two times. The third time,

0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:25.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, it's malleable.

0:30:26.000 --> 0:30:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Bro.

0:30:26.400 --> 0:30:27.480
<v Speaker 3>I just didn't know what he was saying.

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:30.000
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, I didn't even I wasn't even reaching

0:30:30.040 --> 0:30:30.360
<v Speaker 1>for malla.

0:30:30.440 --> 0:30:32.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm just playing around, but it's malleable.

0:30:32.480 --> 0:30:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Right, I wasn't reaching for malleable. I actually thought, okay,

0:30:37.160 --> 0:30:40.600
<v Speaker 1>sort of like imagine, it's not a word, right, okay.

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:41.040
<v Speaker 4>Like seventy eight other words.

0:30:41.080 --> 0:30:46.600
<v Speaker 3>I hear you say every day, the spirit of Bill

0:30:46.680 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 3>is always here.

0:30:47.760 --> 0:30:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Here we go, malleable. Thank you. I wasn't even reaching

0:30:51.360 --> 0:30:56.280
<v Speaker 1>for that, but yes, malleable, and you just.

0:30:54.840 --> 0:30:56.800
<v Speaker 3>Thought it was a word I don't hear every time.

0:30:57.160 --> 0:31:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this I appreciate this. This reminds me of the

0:31:00.800 --> 0:31:05.640
<v Speaker 1>time when the Roots let me go all day wearing

0:31:05.680 --> 0:31:10.560
<v Speaker 1>a shirt backwards and inside out. So when I got

0:31:10.600 --> 0:31:12.320
<v Speaker 1>home and went in the mirror, I was like, wait

0:31:12.360 --> 0:31:15.760
<v Speaker 1>a minute, oh ship. And then next day I was like, yo,

0:31:15.920 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 1>why the fucking y'all tell me my shirt was backwards

0:31:18.000 --> 0:31:20.200
<v Speaker 1>in the inside out, And they were like, oh, we thought.

0:31:22.240 --> 0:31:26.600
<v Speaker 4>To hear Multiple's cool. I'll start saying it if you

0:31:26.640 --> 0:31:27.000
<v Speaker 4>want me.

0:31:26.960 --> 0:31:30.560
<v Speaker 1>To know, but I will. I now know that multible

0:31:30.720 --> 0:31:31.480
<v Speaker 1>is not a word.

0:31:31.560 --> 0:31:33.440
<v Speaker 3>No, good to know that the same meaning though multiple

0:31:33.480 --> 0:31:34.440
<v Speaker 3>and that's the.

0:31:34.400 --> 0:31:36.680
<v Speaker 4>Same meaning, it's not one's not a word.

0:31:36.800 --> 0:31:40.080
<v Speaker 1>So then okay, okay, let's go back to Chicago pizza.

0:31:40.160 --> 0:31:45.959
<v Speaker 1>So anyway, No, well, what I'm asking is, uh, I

0:31:46.040 --> 0:31:50.360
<v Speaker 1>believe correct me if I'm wrong. Wasn't your first show,

0:31:50.360 --> 0:31:54.080
<v Speaker 1>The Mick Jagger Season Closer? I remember your entry.

0:31:54.240 --> 0:31:58.720
<v Speaker 5>I remember, No, that was Kate who did like five

0:31:58.920 --> 0:32:01.440
<v Speaker 5>episodes of that season, And I think, yeah, but.

0:32:01.480 --> 0:32:05.120
<v Speaker 1>You did, you did? I could have sworn I saw

0:32:05.160 --> 0:32:09.560
<v Speaker 1>you on a season closer, Like I thought. It was

0:32:09.600 --> 0:32:12.040
<v Speaker 1>weird that I tweeted out, wait, who's this person? I

0:32:12.080 --> 0:32:16.760
<v Speaker 1>don't know this person? And then someone said you, uh, well,

0:32:17.000 --> 0:32:18.040
<v Speaker 1>well you're not a cast member.

0:32:18.040 --> 0:32:19.880
<v Speaker 6>What is it called a the feature player?

0:32:20.320 --> 0:32:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Feature player? But when did you come in into the show?

0:32:24.800 --> 0:32:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Was it the tail end of a previous show?

0:32:27.080 --> 0:32:27.160
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:32:27.360 --> 0:32:31.000
<v Speaker 5>Was the start of season thirty eight twenty twelve?

0:32:31.800 --> 0:32:34.120
<v Speaker 3>How many seasons? Lord, this is beautiful?

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:35.480
<v Speaker 1>More than forty five minutes beauty?

0:32:35.560 --> 0:32:35.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:32:36.080 --> 0:32:39.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so a long time. So okay, so you didn't

0:32:39.600 --> 0:32:41.520
<v Speaker 1>have to go through the process of just being in

0:32:41.520 --> 0:32:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the room with seven people.

0:32:43.400 --> 0:32:46.240
<v Speaker 5>And No, I still had so I we had that

0:32:46.360 --> 0:32:49.200
<v Speaker 5>showcase and then we did like a weird speed dating

0:32:49.200 --> 0:32:52.000
<v Speaker 5>thing in Chicago where a couple of us from that

0:32:52.040 --> 0:32:56.400
<v Speaker 5>showcase went to go sit with the producers born and

0:32:56.480 --> 0:33:00.680
<v Speaker 5>pretend that was normal. And then then we got flown

0:33:00.720 --> 0:33:03.080
<v Speaker 5>out eighty and I. I sort of got to go

0:33:03.120 --> 0:33:06.720
<v Speaker 5>through everything with eighty though, okay, which was really nice because.

0:33:06.480 --> 0:33:08.080
<v Speaker 3>I was going to ask you because Lauren is a

0:33:08.160 --> 0:33:10.040
<v Speaker 3>very I don't know him at all. I've been in

0:33:10.080 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 3>a room where he is, and he seems like someone

0:33:13.200 --> 0:33:18.600
<v Speaker 3>who is he could be intimidating. Yeah, so when you

0:33:18.640 --> 0:33:20.600
<v Speaker 3>first met because you just said, you know, I did

0:33:20.600 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 3>speed dating, Lauren was there, but really you weren't intimidating

0:33:24.000 --> 0:33:24.760
<v Speaker 3>and how No.

0:33:24.680 --> 0:33:25.479
<v Speaker 6>I definitely was.

0:33:25.640 --> 0:33:30.320
<v Speaker 5>I couldn't tell you what I said at that table.

0:33:30.520 --> 0:33:32.760
<v Speaker 5>I remember talking about Trader Joe's.

0:33:34.200 --> 0:33:34.760
<v Speaker 3>That's where I go.

0:33:34.920 --> 0:33:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm not going to right now. I mean, are

0:33:38.040 --> 0:33:40.760

0:33:40.800 --> 0:33:42.480
<v Speaker 1>how I know if a person's cool or not.

0:33:42.920 --> 0:33:44.320
<v Speaker 6>Oh no, I'm going to fail.

0:33:44.440 --> 0:33:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Are you allowed to have popcorn?

0:33:46.480 --> 0:33:47.200
<v Speaker 6>His popcorn?

0:33:47.360 --> 0:33:47.640

0:33:49.280 --> 0:33:51.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, well then I'm not everyone.

0:33:52.160 --> 0:33:55.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, well, the meeting.

0:33:54.920 --> 0:33:59.120
<v Speaker 5>In between the meeting, in between dress and air, there's

0:33:59.160 --> 0:34:00.680
<v Speaker 5>a big basket of popcorn.

0:34:00.840 --> 0:34:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Right, Yeah, okay, but that's showtime. But I'm talking about

0:34:05.120 --> 0:34:06.360
<v Speaker 1>off show hours.

0:34:06.800 --> 0:34:08.200
<v Speaker 3>He got it in his office or something.

0:34:08.320 --> 0:34:09.760
<v Speaker 6>He keeps it in off yees.

0:34:10.560 --> 0:34:11.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's important.

0:34:11.640 --> 0:34:15.040
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I'm sure he'd let me just so he

0:34:15.080 --> 0:34:17.600
<v Speaker 5>wouldn't have to say no. But I don't know that

0:34:17.640 --> 0:34:20.480
<v Speaker 5>i'd go knock on his door and ask for his popcorn.

0:34:20.719 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I was the type of person.

0:34:22.560 --> 0:34:23.359
<v Speaker 3>That's where you were from.

0:34:23.840 --> 0:34:29.320
<v Speaker 1>No, actually I brought well, I I purchased three big

0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:33.000
<v Speaker 1>ass bags of popcorn and brought him in Lawrence. That

0:34:33.120 --> 0:34:37.720
<v Speaker 1>was my first meeting with Lauren. You purchased, I would

0:34:37.760 --> 0:34:41.280
<v Speaker 1>there was once on forty eighth Street House of Popcorn.

0:34:41.920 --> 0:34:44.640
<v Speaker 5>He didn't charge you for his popcorn though, No. Okay,

0:34:44.680 --> 0:34:47.120
<v Speaker 5>I brought checking brought just in case he's.

0:34:48.200 --> 0:34:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I brought my own. No, I brought it for him

0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:53.920
<v Speaker 1>because I knew that, like the popcorn was a big thing.

0:34:54.360 --> 0:34:58.200
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, I didn't get better. You say it, But

0:34:58.560 --> 0:34:59.120
<v Speaker 3>that was great.

0:34:59.360 --> 0:34:59.960
<v Speaker 6>It's a good move.

0:35:00.239 --> 0:35:02.719

<v Speaker 1>All agree in eight years, do you feel comfortable now?

0:35:09.360 --> 0:35:11.879
<v Speaker 1>Is there's still tense if he's if you know he's

0:35:11.920 --> 0:35:16.640
<v Speaker 1>in proximity watching, Uh, and I mean eight years you're

0:35:16.760 --> 0:35:17.520
<v Speaker 1>very established?

0:35:17.640 --> 0:35:17.920
<v Speaker 6>No?

0:35:18.040 --> 0:35:20.040

<v Speaker 1>You always feel like a hand on the guiltine button, like, oh.

0:35:26.840 --> 0:35:28.799
<v Speaker 6>No, I don't feel like he'll fi.

0:35:28.880 --> 0:35:31.160
<v Speaker 5>I guess it's more about the audience where I'm like,

0:35:31.200 --> 0:35:34.280
<v Speaker 5>I still don't know what they find funny if it's

0:35:34.360 --> 0:35:37.160
<v Speaker 5>sort of like it's still a I don't know what's

0:35:37.200 --> 0:35:39.000
<v Speaker 5>gonna work at dress.

0:35:39.960 --> 0:35:42.560
<v Speaker 1>So some things work to dress that didn't work on

0:35:42.600 --> 0:35:43.880
<v Speaker 1>the show in the opposite.

0:35:43.719 --> 0:35:46.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, yeah, or things that like I find very

0:35:46.320 --> 0:35:48.520
<v Speaker 5>funny that it turns out it's only me.

0:35:48.960 --> 0:35:50.560
<v Speaker 3>So how does this? So how does this work? Because

0:35:50.719 --> 0:35:54.000
<v Speaker 3>you're you're a writer, So how often do you do

0:35:54.080 --> 0:35:55.719
<v Speaker 3>your the things that you write get to be a

0:35:55.719 --> 0:35:57.920
<v Speaker 3>part of the show, Like, what's the percentage of that?

0:36:00.120 --> 0:36:03.359
<v Speaker 5>If it's usually like if there's something on update, then

0:36:03.400 --> 0:36:07.000
<v Speaker 5>it's something I've written, And then I've gotten a lot

0:36:07.040 --> 0:36:09.240
<v Speaker 5>to dress this year and not a lot.

0:36:09.120 --> 0:36:12.440
<v Speaker 3>To air the dummies.

0:36:12.440 --> 0:36:14.160
<v Speaker 6>Okay, so we get things cut for time.

0:36:14.239 --> 0:36:15.719
<v Speaker 3>Okay, okay, okay.

0:36:15.680 --> 0:36:18.120
<v Speaker 1>I have a question about the schedule because actually, like

0:36:18.200 --> 0:36:23.000
<v Speaker 1>he and I sort of quasi sort of follow this schedule.

0:36:23.040 --> 0:36:27.560
<v Speaker 1>I'll schedule my life during the SNL season to sort

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:30.040
<v Speaker 1>of coincide with what you guys are doing. So, like

0:36:30.120 --> 0:36:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Steve and I will like work Saturday afternoons in my

0:36:34.560 --> 0:36:36.960
<v Speaker 1>studio downstairs in my dressing room, and usually I'll be

0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:38.800
<v Speaker 1>done in time to go watch the tapic.

0:36:39.040 --> 0:36:44.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so usually our schedule is pretty multible, but season

0:36:44.600 --> 0:36:48.880
<v Speaker 4>trying multiple, so that's nice.

0:36:48.960 --> 0:36:57.759
<v Speaker 1>Yes, multiple anyway, So I know that from striking up

0:36:57.760 --> 0:37:01.760
<v Speaker 1>a friendship with Tim Robinson. Yeah, when he was writing

0:37:01.760 --> 0:37:07.640
<v Speaker 1>on the show, he explained to us that you guys

0:37:07.640 --> 0:37:11.279
<v Speaker 1>do what eight dress or a thirty dress? Eight eight

0:37:11.760 --> 0:37:13.359
<v Speaker 1>a dress which is a longer.

0:37:13.080 --> 0:37:16.560
<v Speaker 3>Show y'all are so cute dress short for dress rehearsals,

0:37:16.600 --> 0:37:19.759
<v Speaker 3>dress rehearsal. Okay, thank you, okay, just for me, just

0:37:19.760 --> 0:37:22.560
<v Speaker 3>for you know, Yeah.

0:37:22.239 --> 0:37:23.920
<v Speaker 1>There's eight o'clock dress rehearsal.

0:37:24.520 --> 0:37:27.080
<v Speaker 6>You forget. I know, this is not enormous.

0:37:27.080 --> 0:37:27.759
<v Speaker 3>It's not your fault.

0:37:27.840 --> 0:37:30.719
<v Speaker 1>Language with more, with more sketches in it. And I

0:37:30.760 --> 0:37:34.320
<v Speaker 1>guess who is the deciding committee on who makes it

0:37:34.440 --> 0:37:37.799
<v Speaker 1>or doesn't make it to the final eleven thirty show.

0:37:38.120 --> 0:37:41.560
<v Speaker 5>It's there's a there's a room that I've only been

0:37:41.640 --> 0:37:45.040
<v Speaker 5>in once, and it's the people in that room, but

0:37:45.040 --> 0:37:46.680
<v Speaker 5>it's mainly it's Lauren.

0:37:46.520 --> 0:37:50.759
<v Speaker 1>Higgins and crew. Yeah, okay, So is there like the

0:37:50.880 --> 0:37:53.759
<v Speaker 1>high school? All right? So what word am I looking for?

0:37:53.880 --> 0:38:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Where they place the zi gazaar? No, the high the

0:38:00.800 --> 0:38:01.360
<v Speaker 1>high school?

0:38:01.560 --> 0:38:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

0:38:02.320 --> 0:38:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Where you put the board?

0:38:04.120 --> 0:38:05.439
<v Speaker 6>Or there is a bulletin board.

0:38:05.480 --> 0:38:07.480
<v Speaker 1>A bulletin board, That's what I was looking for. So

0:38:08.160 --> 0:38:10.120
<v Speaker 1>or is it? Now? With technology, you guys just get

0:38:10.120 --> 0:38:12.359
<v Speaker 1>alerts of what your schedule is.

0:38:12.680 --> 0:38:15.440
<v Speaker 6>No, and I wouldn't know how to get that anyway.

0:38:15.520 --> 0:38:18.319
<v Speaker 5>There is people have like an app where they can

0:38:18.560 --> 0:38:20.680
<v Speaker 5>watch their sketches, and I'm blown away by that.

0:38:22.120 --> 0:38:24.440
<v Speaker 6>I'll never get it. Okay, I just don't know how.

0:38:24.600 --> 0:38:26.040
<v Speaker 6>I have the burner number. And that's it.

0:38:26.400 --> 0:38:28.799
<v Speaker 1>So when they put up when the person puts up

0:38:29.960 --> 0:38:33.600
<v Speaker 1>the bulletin board, notice, then you all run like it's

0:38:33.680 --> 0:38:35.680
<v Speaker 1>high school to see what made it, what didn't made it?

0:38:36.080 --> 0:38:39.440
<v Speaker 5>Well, you we all go into it's called the meeting,

0:38:40.600 --> 0:38:42.839
<v Speaker 5>and we'll get notes and you just kind of look

0:38:42.920 --> 0:38:46.600
<v Speaker 5>at it and you try not to show too much

0:38:46.640 --> 0:38:48.960
<v Speaker 5>how heartbroken you are when your sketch is.

0:38:49.360 --> 0:38:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I was going to say that side now again, with

0:38:52.680 --> 0:38:58.279
<v Speaker 1>failure being the f word or an education process, how

0:38:58.360 --> 0:39:03.160
<v Speaker 1>should one in the most non diplomatic way you can

0:39:03.200 --> 0:39:08.280
<v Speaker 1>do it without jeopardizing yourself. But like, how should one

0:39:08.840 --> 0:39:13.239
<v Speaker 1>take failure as a writer or as a person on

0:39:13.280 --> 0:39:16.320
<v Speaker 1>the show if their sketch doesn't make it to eleven thirty?

0:39:17.160 --> 0:39:18.720
<v Speaker 6>I mean it always it's funny.

0:39:19.080 --> 0:39:24.279
<v Speaker 5>Some hurt more than others, and it's so like embarrassing

0:39:24.360 --> 0:39:28.640
<v Speaker 5>how much sketch comedy you can be so emotional and

0:39:28.680 --> 0:39:30.560
<v Speaker 5>tim and I used to joke because some things get

0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:33.440
<v Speaker 5>cut during the show. You know, there's we always we

0:39:33.520 --> 0:39:35.560
<v Speaker 5>usually go on a little long, so you may be

0:39:35.719 --> 0:39:39.719
<v Speaker 5>dressed just like a complete asshole, waiting to go your

0:39:39.800 --> 0:39:42.920
<v Speaker 5>like dressed as a pumpkin or something, ready to do

0:39:43.040 --> 0:39:45.840
<v Speaker 5>your sketch about farts, and then they say over the

0:39:45.880 --> 0:39:48.960
<v Speaker 5>thing like that's been cut and you're just standing there

0:39:49.680 --> 0:39:51.800
<v Speaker 5>like crying, dressed like a pumpkin.

0:39:52.280 --> 0:39:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Is that because of overages? Okay, overages case in point.

0:39:59.200 --> 0:40:01.239
<v Speaker 4>I was I think that's a word, by the way,

0:40:01.440 --> 0:40:01.759
<v Speaker 4>thank you.

0:40:02.160 --> 0:40:04.920
<v Speaker 1>I was watching all right, I was watching a Debbie

0:40:04.960 --> 0:40:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Downer sketch. Yeah, that obviously went way over. Then it's

0:40:08.960 --> 0:40:12.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of time, but because of the laughter and

0:40:12.360 --> 0:40:15.879
<v Speaker 1>all that stuff, to get to the end, somebody has

0:40:15.880 --> 0:40:21.719
<v Speaker 1>to get sacrificed, right, So are sketches based on a

0:40:21.760 --> 0:40:24.600
<v Speaker 1>specific time hoping that it doesn't run over?

0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:26.200
<v Speaker 6>Or yeah?

0:40:26.320 --> 0:40:29.440
<v Speaker 5>I mean usually if you're like in the last or

0:40:29.520 --> 0:40:33.600
<v Speaker 5>second to last spot, you're sort of just waiting to

0:40:33.680 --> 0:40:36.560
<v Speaker 5>hear the whole night and there will be time.

0:40:36.640 --> 0:40:41.040
<v Speaker 6>Like during the Chance show, there was an.

0:40:40.960 --> 0:40:43.239
<v Speaker 5>Issue with the wires and I just remember I was

0:40:43.320 --> 0:40:46.480
<v Speaker 5>dangling there for so long and I was like, this, something's.

0:40:46.120 --> 0:40:46.880
<v Speaker 6>Getting cut for this.

0:40:47.680 --> 0:40:49.520
<v Speaker 5>I was going to say, now I'm dangling here, I

0:40:49.560 --> 0:40:50.920
<v Speaker 5>know something's getting cut for this.

0:40:51.719 --> 0:40:56.040
<v Speaker 1>Which leads me to the Tuesday night pitch. Now the one,

0:40:56.480 --> 0:40:58.440
<v Speaker 1>the thing, the thing that I always and let me

0:40:58.440 --> 0:41:02.239
<v Speaker 1>explain for our Listenershiggins on our show, jimmy sidekick on

0:41:02.280 --> 0:41:05.960
<v Speaker 1>our show, is one of the main producers of SNL.

0:41:06.400 --> 0:41:07.960
<v Speaker 1>So him doing the tonight show is sort of like

0:41:08.000 --> 0:41:09.919
<v Speaker 1>me doing a DJ gig from the roots, Like that's

0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:12.319
<v Speaker 1>his side hustle. He doesn't have to do it, but

0:41:12.440 --> 0:41:14.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's something to do and it keeps some

0:41:14.320 --> 0:41:18.760
<v Speaker 1>sharp comedy wise or whatever. However, the thing I always

0:41:18.880 --> 0:41:21.840
<v Speaker 1>ask about, Higgins, the thing that I'm most curious about

0:41:22.080 --> 0:41:27.720
<v Speaker 1>are how sketches are pitched on Tuesday Night to whoever

0:41:27.760 --> 0:41:31.359
<v Speaker 1>the designated host is. How do you do it in

0:41:31.440 --> 0:41:36.400
<v Speaker 1>such a quickly executed time? How do you explain a

0:41:36.440 --> 0:41:41.320
<v Speaker 1>sketch that really depends on physicality? Because that chance sketch

0:41:41.360 --> 0:41:46.919
<v Speaker 1>that you speak of was really I mean, what made

0:41:46.960 --> 0:41:49.360
<v Speaker 1>it hilarious was the fact that you guys were trapped

0:41:49.400 --> 0:41:52.920
<v Speaker 1>in mid air and these wires crashing all over the place.

0:41:53.360 --> 0:41:58.719
<v Speaker 1>So how is that conveyed at a table well that

0:41:58.760 --> 0:42:00.439
<v Speaker 1>they say, yes, that work.

0:42:00.680 --> 0:42:04.080
<v Speaker 6>They I've never had to do that.

0:42:05.080 --> 0:42:08.880
<v Speaker 5>We have pitched Monday, but usually that's like you're just

0:42:09.000 --> 0:42:12.120
<v Speaker 5>meeting the host sort of and seeing what they find funny,

0:42:12.239 --> 0:42:15.160
<v Speaker 5>or just hearing them speak or seeing them for the

0:42:15.160 --> 0:42:17.839
<v Speaker 5>first time in person, and then we write on Tuesday.

0:42:18.560 --> 0:42:22.480
<v Speaker 5>And I don't normally talk to the host on Tuesday

0:42:22.560 --> 0:42:26.040
<v Speaker 5>because I think then they may say like, oh, that

0:42:26.120 --> 0:42:27.799
<v Speaker 5>sounds fun, and what if I do this and you're

0:42:27.880 --> 0:42:30.960
<v Speaker 5>kind of like, oh.

0:42:29.719 --> 0:42:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Are we there every day? Yeah, from Monday till yeah, Saturday. Yeah,

0:42:35.440 --> 0:42:38.080
<v Speaker 1>now we can bring in the time lamps thing.

0:42:38.400 --> 0:42:40.960
<v Speaker 3>Wait, but before we will before we do that. Does

0:42:40.960 --> 0:42:46.120
<v Speaker 3>that mean that comedian hosts are harder, way harder. Yeah, okay,

0:42:46.239 --> 0:42:52.080
<v Speaker 3>so then this weekend would be really hard coming up. Okay, well,

0:42:53.040 --> 0:42:53.400
<v Speaker 3>thank you.

0:42:53.640 --> 0:42:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I mean, the thing is is that

0:42:56.320 --> 0:43:00.080
<v Speaker 1>Eddie Okay, we're obviously speaking before the you know, the

0:43:00.080 --> 0:43:04.000
<v Speaker 1>the Eddie Murphy, the grand return of Eddie Murphy to Essenel,

0:43:04.880 --> 0:43:12.240
<v Speaker 1>of which I think that because he's such because he's

0:43:12.280 --> 0:43:17.120
<v Speaker 1>such a maverick at his job, that he would know

0:43:19.360 --> 0:43:22.480
<v Speaker 1>to sort of go along with the climate of the

0:43:22.560 --> 0:43:26.120
<v Speaker 1>room as opposed to now. I was there. I was

0:43:26.200 --> 0:43:30.520
<v Speaker 1>there during the whole Chappelle hosting situation, and once I

0:43:30.560 --> 0:43:33.960
<v Speaker 1>saw Neil Brennan in the hallway, I was like, oh boy.

0:43:34.320 --> 0:43:37.879
<v Speaker 3>The comedians bring their own Oh my writers, that's the clusterfuck.

0:43:38.640 --> 0:43:41.319
<v Speaker 3>You know, it's sort I don't sometimes, Yeah, I.

0:43:41.280 --> 0:43:44.799
<v Speaker 5>Think like this week is actually I feel like I

0:43:44.840 --> 0:43:48.719
<v Speaker 5>can kind of sit back because it'll be very much

0:43:48.760 --> 0:43:52.400
<v Speaker 5>about and like, I think that's exciting and what he

0:43:52.480 --> 0:43:56.759
<v Speaker 5>wants to do, and I'll probably do like free are

0:43:56.800 --> 0:43:57.600
<v Speaker 5>you well?

0:43:57.640 --> 0:44:01.880
<v Speaker 1>Only Okay? What makes in my opinion, what makes his

0:44:02.000 --> 0:44:09.919
<v Speaker 1>Dolomite film work is he's actually kind of a straight guy.

0:44:10.120 --> 0:44:14.719
<v Speaker 1>It's it's his re It's like the planets that the

0:44:15.000 --> 0:44:17.720
<v Speaker 1>stars that surround and the moons that surround his planet

0:44:18.239 --> 0:44:21.319
<v Speaker 1>is what really makes that film funny, like and he's

0:44:21.360 --> 0:44:22.120
<v Speaker 1>reacting to.

0:44:23.680 --> 0:44:26.320
<v Speaker 3>Wes makes it fun Yeah, you're right like other.

0:44:26.160 --> 0:44:31.560
<v Speaker 1>People, And you know, I think that you guys are

0:44:31.800 --> 0:44:35.640
<v Speaker 1>on such a role like I now consider as an

0:44:35.800 --> 0:44:42.279
<v Speaker 1>SNL expert, that your era SNL will be considered like

0:44:42.360 --> 0:44:45.480
<v Speaker 1>a high Mark cast season, the way that we looked

0:44:45.480 --> 0:44:49.160
<v Speaker 1>at the ninety eight cast with with Fallon and Tita Fey,

0:44:49.239 --> 0:44:51.080
<v Speaker 1>and the way that people look at the class of

0:44:51.160 --> 0:44:55.200
<v Speaker 1>ninety one or seventy five like people have specific eras

0:44:55.239 --> 0:44:59.600
<v Speaker 1>of right there, that was the Chicago Bulls of you guys. Now,

0:45:00.239 --> 0:45:03.880
<v Speaker 1>you guys now have your own rhythm when coming with

0:45:03.920 --> 0:45:07.120
<v Speaker 1>each other. So I think it would just behove any

0:45:07.200 --> 0:45:13.080
<v Speaker 1>host to join the gang as opposed to disrupt them.

0:45:13.360 --> 0:45:14.839
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, Eddie might be what do you think

0:45:14.880 --> 0:45:17.719
<v Speaker 3>that's because I mean, I have I don't know what

0:45:17.800 --> 0:45:19.040
<v Speaker 3>will happen, but I assume.

0:45:19.520 --> 0:45:22.279
<v Speaker 6>I mean because it's his first time coming back and

0:45:22.320 --> 0:45:22.680
<v Speaker 6>he was.

0:45:23.400 --> 0:45:25.200
<v Speaker 3>Just he's never hosted.

0:45:26.200 --> 0:45:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Eighty four was the last time he hosted when Beverly

0:45:28.080 --> 0:45:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Hills Cop came out. Wow, And the first time he

0:45:31.000 --> 0:45:34.960
<v Speaker 1>host it was inadvertently when Nick Nolty. Nick Nolty was

0:45:35.000 --> 0:45:37.440
<v Speaker 1>the only person to drop out of the show like

0:45:38.360 --> 0:45:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the Friday before, like I'm not doing this, and so

0:45:41.040 --> 0:45:41.439
<v Speaker 1>they were.

0:45:41.360 --> 0:45:43.440
<v Speaker 6>Like yeah when he was on the cast.

0:45:43.560 --> 0:45:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so they're like, well, Eddie, you're in the movie too,

0:45:46.080 --> 0:45:50.040
<v Speaker 1>so you hosted and that became a game changer for him,

0:45:50.840 --> 0:45:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Like so.

0:45:51.760 --> 0:45:53.320
<v Speaker 3>You really are an expert.

0:45:54.440 --> 0:45:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I only know because Soul Train came on at one

0:45:58.000 --> 0:46:02.840
<v Speaker 1>a m. And SoulTrain came on right after SNL, So

0:46:02.920 --> 0:46:05.680
<v Speaker 1>it's like you watch SNL at eleven thirty and then

0:46:05.680 --> 0:46:08.359
<v Speaker 1>one am finally soul Train comes on. But if there

0:46:08.360 --> 0:46:11.000
<v Speaker 1>were a VCR back then I would have probably just

0:46:11.040 --> 0:46:13.879
<v Speaker 1>recorded SoulTrain and not cared about SNL as much.

0:46:13.920 --> 0:46:16.399
<v Speaker 3>Wait, so on that note, just question to you are

0:46:16.440 --> 0:46:18.960
<v Speaker 3>you were you a fan? Were you a Jane Curtin,

0:46:19.200 --> 0:46:22.400
<v Speaker 3>Gilda reantn or like yeah you were all in?

0:46:22.840 --> 0:46:27.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we had I definitely want My mom had me

0:46:27.160 --> 0:46:32.000
<v Speaker 5>watch like Gilda's show, her Broadway show on tape. I

0:46:32.040 --> 0:46:37.040
<v Speaker 5>had vhs of like SNL's commercials that I wore out

0:46:36.760 --> 0:46:40.080
<v Speaker 5>pretty much. I like to Tracey.

0:46:40.280 --> 0:46:42.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean I watched a bunch of different Did you

0:46:42.680 --> 0:46:44.520
<v Speaker 3>have a favorite grownd now class Like, I'm mi're just it.

0:46:45.840 --> 0:46:50.880
<v Speaker 5>I really enjoyed every iteration I think up until like

0:46:51.000 --> 0:46:54.520
<v Speaker 5>you're eighteen or whatever and you're too cool for SNL

0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:55.000
<v Speaker 5>for a while.

0:46:56.840 --> 0:46:58.240
<v Speaker 6>You know, I'm never busy.

0:46:58.680 --> 0:47:04.560
<v Speaker 5>You're busy, busy, very busy, cool popular.

0:47:05.520 --> 0:47:06.680
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:47:06.920 --> 0:47:13.320
<v Speaker 1>So okay. I got to bring up two specific I

0:47:13.560 --> 0:47:18.200
<v Speaker 1>say specific specific sketches that you did that I felt like,

0:47:18.239 --> 0:47:21.520
<v Speaker 1>we're really mind blowing. One for the physical comedy when

0:47:21.560 --> 0:47:26.399
<v Speaker 1>you do Fox News as a Yeah, Piero, I don't

0:47:26.440 --> 0:47:33.759
<v Speaker 1>care if I mispronounce it in dress rehearsal, did you

0:47:33.880 --> 0:47:37.560
<v Speaker 1>go that hard with the spectaques and the falling on

0:47:37.600 --> 0:47:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the floor.

0:47:38.160 --> 0:47:41.839
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, definitely you all right.

0:47:41.880 --> 0:47:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I was in the audience. And so to see you

0:47:44.160 --> 0:47:46.439
<v Speaker 1>it's one thing watching on television, if you're at home

0:47:46.480 --> 0:47:49.960
<v Speaker 1>watching the Angle of It, that's one thing. But to

0:47:50.080 --> 0:47:54.520
<v Speaker 1>see you actually put yourself in physical danger, just like

0:47:54.560 --> 0:47:57.120
<v Speaker 1>that second fall out the chair. There's two moments where

0:47:57.120 --> 0:48:03.200
<v Speaker 1>she you know, well it's not a double take, but

0:48:03.239 --> 0:48:05.120
<v Speaker 1>you threw yourself out the chair, right.

0:48:05.239 --> 0:48:08.359
<v Speaker 5>I mean I had a giant Matt and I made

0:48:08.360 --> 0:48:12.279
<v Speaker 5>sure to practiced it a lot beforehand, and I was

0:48:12.440 --> 0:48:16.920
<v Speaker 5>very like serious about it, like you promised me time

0:48:17.280 --> 0:48:19.960
<v Speaker 5>to practice throwing myself out of a chair, and I

0:48:20.040 --> 0:48:21.319
<v Speaker 5>need this time to do that.

0:48:21.400 --> 0:48:23.520
<v Speaker 1>You did it on the floor, like elsewhere.

0:48:23.680 --> 0:48:25.360
<v Speaker 3>On the floor, because you only have that.

0:48:25.440 --> 0:48:28.640
<v Speaker 5>I just needed to see like the space, you know,

0:48:28.680 --> 0:48:30.720
<v Speaker 5>seeing what you can do at that desk. You nailed

0:48:30.719 --> 0:48:34.399
<v Speaker 5>it because my shoes flew off on accident, I thought,

0:48:35.360 --> 0:48:37.239
<v Speaker 5>And then I was like, oh, I got to keep that.

0:48:38.360 --> 0:48:41.520
<v Speaker 6>Then I had to try to flick my shoe off air.

0:48:41.920 --> 0:48:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I was. It was spittal and perfect. But the

0:48:47.120 --> 0:48:52.840
<v Speaker 1>other thing is you're Barbara Streiss and jingle Bells reradition

0:48:53.200 --> 0:48:57.400
<v Speaker 1>now as a as a person who's whose band member

0:48:57.600 --> 0:49:01.400
<v Speaker 1>is known for his breath control. The first thing I

0:49:01.520 --> 0:49:05.960
<v Speaker 1>noticed was that you hardly breath all these words. How

0:49:06.000 --> 0:49:10.799
<v Speaker 1>do you how long do you prepare a sketch or

0:49:10.880 --> 0:49:13.279
<v Speaker 1>how long do you prepare bits? Well?

0:49:13.360 --> 0:49:16.799
<v Speaker 5>That one Brian Tucker, I got a text from him

0:49:16.800 --> 0:49:19.520
<v Speaker 5>at like two am with that song and he said,

0:49:19.560 --> 0:49:22.560
<v Speaker 5>I just heard this in a cab and I think

0:49:22.600 --> 0:49:24.400
<v Speaker 5>this would be really funny if you want to do it,

0:49:24.480 --> 0:49:26.960
<v Speaker 5>And so then I just I was like number one.

0:49:27.000 --> 0:49:29.239
<v Speaker 5>That's very funny that Brian Tucker is sending me a

0:49:29.280 --> 0:49:34.360
<v Speaker 5>Barbars Streissen song. And then, uh, if I just started practicing,

0:49:34.560 --> 0:49:37.280
<v Speaker 5>I mean it was just like, I'll my neighbors probably

0:49:37.320 --> 0:49:41.440
<v Speaker 5>think I'm insane because I'll just be singing things.

0:49:41.239 --> 0:49:44.920
<v Speaker 6>Like that over a note repeat on loop. Yeah yeah,

0:49:45.320 --> 0:49:47.040
<v Speaker 6>at night time in my primary Yeah.

0:49:48.560 --> 0:49:52.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Malcolm Gladwell hours like, there's no way, Like I

0:49:52.440 --> 0:49:55.279
<v Speaker 1>put the I put it on Spotify myself, and I

0:49:55.320 --> 0:49:58.200
<v Speaker 1>was like, there's no way that she learned this in

0:49:58.320 --> 0:50:00.160
<v Speaker 1>less than a month or year, Like I thought that

0:50:00.200 --> 0:50:01.240
<v Speaker 1>was something in your repertoire.

0:50:01.360 --> 0:50:05.839
<v Speaker 5>No, No, it's just when you're a lunatic, I think,

0:50:05.920 --> 0:50:09.080
<v Speaker 5>And you don't sleep, You've got all those hours in

0:50:09.120 --> 0:50:09.480
<v Speaker 5>the night.

0:50:09.840 --> 0:50:10.680
<v Speaker 1>You are a lunatic.

0:50:11.000 --> 0:50:14.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Cecy, you never took singing like serious series.

0:50:15.960 --> 0:50:20.200
<v Speaker 5>I mean I sang because, but it was never like

0:50:20.239 --> 0:50:23.120
<v Speaker 5>a singer singer. No, And there's a lot of singing

0:50:23.160 --> 0:50:26.920
<v Speaker 5>I can't do, so I'm more like I can do

0:50:27.000 --> 0:50:28.200
<v Speaker 5>sketch comedy singing.

0:50:28.600 --> 0:50:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of which, what's the determining factor of when you

0:50:34.080 --> 0:50:39.479
<v Speaker 1>guys warm up the crowd? Is it that? In my mind?

0:50:39.520 --> 0:50:41.120
<v Speaker 1>I thought that was like, oh, this is when like

0:50:41.320 --> 0:50:44.840
<v Speaker 1>you're new to the NBA and the freshman on the

0:50:44.880 --> 0:50:47.640
<v Speaker 1>new team had to carry all the bags. So when

0:50:47.640 --> 0:50:54.080
<v Speaker 1>they warm up the crowd, Keenan does his old Soul

0:50:54.160 --> 0:50:57.600
<v Speaker 1>review routine and usually three of the SNL ladies will

0:50:57.640 --> 0:51:00.360
<v Speaker 1>be his pips, so it'll be like his version of

0:51:00.360 --> 0:51:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Glass Night and the Pips and they dress up for

0:51:02.680 --> 0:51:05.279
<v Speaker 1>it and all this other they get.

0:51:05.320 --> 0:51:06.200
<v Speaker 3>They never never changed.

0:51:06.200 --> 0:51:07.960
<v Speaker 1>They no, no, it's just a warm up thing.

0:51:08.040 --> 0:51:09.400
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So that's what I mean for the warm up.

0:51:09.400 --> 0:51:10.520
<v Speaker 3>They always do the same warm up.

0:51:11.760 --> 0:51:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but I mean the audience isn't crazy like me

0:51:14.480 --> 0:51:17.080
<v Speaker 1>and be there every week, so it's new to everybody. Right,

0:51:17.120 --> 0:51:20.719
<v Speaker 1>it's new to everyone. But what is the process of that.

0:51:20.800 --> 0:51:25.239
<v Speaker 1>It's like if you're new, you have to sing? Or

0:51:25.320 --> 0:51:27.200
<v Speaker 1>is it like how do you guys negotiate it? Are

0:51:27.200 --> 0:51:29.040
<v Speaker 1>they told like, well, it's my week to sing?

0:51:29.120 --> 0:51:30.759
<v Speaker 6>Or no, no, I uh.

0:51:32.080 --> 0:51:35.279
<v Speaker 5>I did it for four five years or something and

0:51:35.320 --> 0:51:40.120
<v Speaker 5>then it was but you singh give me some lovin right,

0:51:40.280 --> 0:51:44.600
<v Speaker 5>and there was like I Now the newer girls do it,

0:51:44.840 --> 0:51:47.759
<v Speaker 5>especially because if the cold open is coming, to do

0:51:47.840 --> 0:51:50.200
<v Speaker 5>that warm up and then to go right into the

0:51:50.200 --> 0:51:52.000
<v Speaker 5>cold open can be kind of tough, and a lot

0:51:52.000 --> 0:51:55.400
<v Speaker 5>of times Kate will be wearing crazy prosthetics or something.

0:51:55.440 --> 0:51:57.960
<v Speaker 1>So then yeah, I was wondering, now do you guys

0:51:58.360 --> 0:52:00.799
<v Speaker 1>run with just three seconds left to right?

0:52:01.040 --> 0:52:05.399
<v Speaker 5>So it's but I was definitely like, I am done

0:52:05.440 --> 0:52:08.160
<v Speaker 5>to you. I broke my foot one year right before

0:52:08.200 --> 0:52:10.920
<v Speaker 5>the show started, so I got out of warm ups

0:52:11.040 --> 0:52:12.000
<v Speaker 5>and then it was kind of like.

0:52:13.520 --> 0:52:14.200
<v Speaker 6>Can I stay?

0:52:14.320 --> 0:52:19.799
<v Speaker 1>I like this? Speaking of out, you were in the

0:52:19.840 --> 0:52:25.759
<v Speaker 1>coveted anchorchair of weekend Updates. Yeah, yeah, exactly, thank you

0:52:29.080 --> 0:52:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and then you well because of you, I guess we

0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:37.120
<v Speaker 1>now have Michael j. But why would you give up

0:52:37.160 --> 0:52:38.200
<v Speaker 1>such a coveted spot?

0:52:38.320 --> 0:52:41.399
<v Speaker 5>Well, I think it was doing it with Seth, who

0:52:41.480 --> 0:52:44.319
<v Speaker 5>was so established, made it feel like I could just

0:52:44.520 --> 0:52:48.920
<v Speaker 5>go in and it was already a thing that I

0:52:49.000 --> 0:52:52.360
<v Speaker 5>just could sort of slide into. And then when he left,

0:52:53.080 --> 0:52:55.080
<v Speaker 5>it was Colin and I and it was like, clearly

0:52:55.200 --> 0:52:58.000
<v Speaker 5>this needs to now we have to figure this whole new.

0:53:00.400 --> 0:53:02.200
<v Speaker 6>Thing out and kem and it was just.

0:53:02.160 --> 0:53:06.840
<v Speaker 5>Like that the what that would have taken if that

0:53:07.000 --> 0:53:09.520
<v Speaker 5>was really exhausting and sort of like, I don't know

0:53:09.560 --> 0:53:12.640
<v Speaker 5>that I want to spend my time now just figuring

0:53:12.680 --> 0:53:16.120
<v Speaker 5>out what update's going to be. So there were a

0:53:16.160 --> 0:53:19.719
<v Speaker 5>lot of talks with Lauren and you know, and it

0:53:19.800 --> 0:53:24.239
<v Speaker 5>was it wasn't an easy decision necessarily, but it was

0:53:24.560 --> 0:53:26.480
<v Speaker 5>I think absolutely the right one.

0:53:26.640 --> 0:53:30.680
<v Speaker 1>So would would doing Does doing update require that you

0:53:30.800 --> 0:53:34.600
<v Speaker 1>really have to have a chemistry with whoever your partner

0:53:34.719 --> 0:53:36.120
<v Speaker 1>is on the show.

0:53:35.880 --> 0:53:38.920
<v Speaker 5>And well, I think it was because he was so

0:53:39.080 --> 0:53:42.520
<v Speaker 5>new too, so it was like two new people trying

0:53:42.560 --> 0:53:45.600
<v Speaker 5>and it was just like I just would rather I missed.

0:53:45.880 --> 0:53:46.799
<v Speaker 6>I just want to do.

0:53:46.880 --> 0:53:49.359
<v Speaker 3>Get more fun. You do more fun to do the care.

0:53:49.440 --> 0:53:52.640
<v Speaker 1>You can't do both. You can't do update and characters.

0:53:52.760 --> 0:53:55.920
<v Speaker 5>I think if if Seth had stayed longer, I would

0:53:55.920 --> 0:53:59.120
<v Speaker 5>have I could have stayed longer because it was I

0:53:59.160 --> 0:54:02.560
<v Speaker 5>didn't we didn't have all they make something new? Yeah,

0:54:02.600 --> 0:54:04.279
<v Speaker 5>but is it rare though when we think about it,

0:54:04.320 --> 0:54:06.239
<v Speaker 5>like it feels like the folks who always do we

0:54:06.280 --> 0:54:09.840
<v Speaker 5>can update do the least other stuff? Right because Amy

0:54:09.880 --> 0:54:12.399
<v Speaker 5>did a lot right, Well, dang you, Yeah, Amy did

0:54:12.400 --> 0:54:14.319
<v Speaker 5>do a lot. But I think like once you had

0:54:14.400 --> 0:54:17.279
<v Speaker 5>but just to try to figure out what that new

0:54:17.360 --> 0:54:21.800
<v Speaker 5>dynamic was going to be just felt like pretty daunting

0:54:21.880 --> 0:54:26.520
<v Speaker 5>and and and exciting, but not what I was wanted

0:54:26.560 --> 0:54:30.439
<v Speaker 5>to do on the show the most I see.

0:54:32.600 --> 0:54:35.840
<v Speaker 4>He's like so curious about SNL man, like I'm gonna

0:54:35.840 --> 0:54:38.800
<v Speaker 4>get past it. I'm not knocking it. I'm just saying

0:54:38.880 --> 0:54:41.680
<v Speaker 4>that's a very cute, adorable child, like.

0:54:42.120 --> 0:54:43.920
<v Speaker 6>Very good to go see a message.

0:54:44.160 --> 0:54:46.879
<v Speaker 4>Now he sees like Cremony's and.

0:54:46.840 --> 0:54:50.680
<v Speaker 5>It's like there's nothing I truly am like. It's very

0:54:50.719 --> 0:54:51.960
<v Speaker 5>flattering and exciting.

0:54:52.040 --> 0:54:55.520
<v Speaker 4>You can hear him laughing in the audience sometimes, Okay, that's.

0:55:00.880 --> 0:55:00.960
<v Speaker 2>No.

0:55:01.080 --> 0:55:03.279
<v Speaker 1>I told them, like, don't sit me the mic that

0:55:03.360 --> 0:55:06.640
<v Speaker 1>they put me under. But the mic is as close

0:55:06.719 --> 0:55:09.480
<v Speaker 1>to my seat as the microphone right now that I'm

0:55:09.520 --> 0:55:12.960
<v Speaker 1>sitting in. Wow. And so occasionally Jimmy will hit me

0:55:13.640 --> 0:55:16.359
<v Speaker 1>like my thing, like really you thought that you thought

0:55:16.360 --> 0:55:19.480
<v Speaker 1>that you thought that Harry Potter joke was really that

0:55:19.520 --> 0:55:19.960
<v Speaker 1>funny of me?

0:55:19.960 --> 0:55:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Here?

0:55:20.200 --> 0:55:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Really? Really? Yeah? I always get out it with with

0:55:24.640 --> 0:55:28.719
<v Speaker 1>my laughter, so I try to have you done. Here's

<v Speaker 3>Because I know probably know norybody else.

0:57:02.840 --> 0:57:06.400
<v Speaker 1>No. I My my love of the show is actually

0:57:06.520 --> 0:57:10.400
<v Speaker 1>watching two things I love. I love watching the panic

0:57:10.520 --> 0:57:13.880
<v Speaker 1>whoever your wardrobe, lady, is that or not? The wardrobe?

0:57:14.000 --> 0:57:15.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, the one that wrangles.

0:57:15.920 --> 0:57:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's my favorite thing to watch, Like to watch

0:57:18.600 --> 0:57:23.280
<v Speaker 1>her grab after monologue's done. She will grab you by

0:57:23.360 --> 0:57:29.160
<v Speaker 1>the collar and yeah, that to me. Watching the machine

0:57:29.240 --> 0:57:31.680
<v Speaker 1>run is my favorite shit.

0:57:31.760 --> 0:57:34.280
<v Speaker 3>Ever, it's still on some VIP shit because I'm like

0:57:34.320 --> 0:57:36.120
<v Speaker 3>other shows sn ling, the kind of show where you

0:57:36.160 --> 0:57:38.360
<v Speaker 3>can be like, yes, can I get on the list

0:57:38.440 --> 0:57:39.600
<v Speaker 3>for next month show?

0:57:40.840 --> 0:57:47.720
<v Speaker 1>However, my second favorite thing is I love I love

0:57:47.880 --> 0:57:50.640
<v Speaker 1>throwing off the audience clap when it's time for the end,

0:57:51.800 --> 0:57:54.520
<v Speaker 1>so the band will try to teach them all the time.

0:57:54.920 --> 0:57:58.520
<v Speaker 5>If they're ever off watching the band, you know that's

0:57:58.560 --> 0:58:00.360
<v Speaker 5>so disappointed in the eye dance.

0:58:01.280 --> 0:58:03.800
<v Speaker 1>It's not the audience. It's not the audience.

0:58:03.840 --> 0:58:05.240
<v Speaker 3>Really, it's me, because it's.

0:58:07.360 --> 0:58:08.480
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't sense up.

0:58:10.200 --> 0:58:11.200
<v Speaker 6>They go so fast.

0:58:12.560 --> 0:58:15.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm the one in the audience that's speeding up the clap,

0:58:15.600 --> 0:58:16.600
<v Speaker 1>knowing that the nine.

0:58:16.400 --> 0:58:19.480
<v Speaker 3>People next to me, So what are you doing about? Now?

0:58:19.920 --> 0:58:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm sitting in the audience and I'm speeding up the

0:58:22.320 --> 0:58:25.640
<v Speaker 1>clap knowing that thirteen to fourteen people next to me

0:58:25.680 --> 0:58:28.520
<v Speaker 1>are going to speak clat with me, and then so

0:58:28.600 --> 0:58:30.640
<v Speaker 1>on and so on and so on, and then I

0:58:30.800 --> 0:58:35.320
<v Speaker 1>mess it up. Every time it's messed up, you know,

0:58:35.640 --> 0:58:37.400
<v Speaker 1>you know to look up in the valcony, be like

0:58:37.960 --> 0:58:38.400
<v Speaker 1>I got.

0:58:38.240 --> 0:58:39.959
<v Speaker 6>To tell the band, no, don't do that.

0:58:39.880 --> 0:58:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Please, please don't do that? All right, My last question

0:58:51.840 --> 0:58:55.120
<v Speaker 1>is that most people use sen L as the springboard

0:58:55.960 --> 0:59:01.520
<v Speaker 1>two other careers. We're actually now on SNL is actually

0:59:01.680 --> 0:59:04.920
<v Speaker 1>a cool end game. Yeah, I mean Keenan's on his

0:59:05.440 --> 0:59:09.240
<v Speaker 1>twentieth year, I believe. Yeah, yeah, so wow, I've.

0:59:09.240 --> 0:59:12.160
<v Speaker 3>Been that Kean. Yeah, but it works for him straight

0:59:12.200 --> 0:59:13.480
<v Speaker 3>from Goudburger just punce.

0:59:13.640 --> 0:59:15.000
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I mean he's a genius.

0:59:15.160 --> 0:59:16.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but that's amazing.

0:59:16.840 --> 0:59:21.160
<v Speaker 1>It works for him, like and so, but I mean

0:59:21.200 --> 0:59:24.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm certain that people had like, well, you know, Eddie

0:59:24.320 --> 0:59:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Murphy did it, Sandler did it. You know, Tina Fey

0:59:27.320 --> 0:59:32.240
<v Speaker 1>did Like for you, do you have a vision board?

0:59:32.240 --> 0:59:34.960
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not asking for like this is your last year,

0:59:34.960 --> 0:59:40.400
<v Speaker 1>but do you have a vision board that you might

0:59:40.480 --> 0:59:44.120
<v Speaker 1>consider Like, Okay, the end of this particular sentence will

0:59:44.160 --> 0:59:47.120
<v Speaker 1>happen this particular year and then I'm going to develop

0:59:48.800 --> 0:59:51.760
<v Speaker 1>this show or direct this movie or Yeah.

0:59:51.800 --> 0:59:54.360
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I think there's a there's a lot of

0:59:54.480 --> 0:59:57.920
<v Speaker 5>things I'd like to be doing. Some things you can

0:59:57.960 --> 1:00:03.320
<v Speaker 5>do at the same time, so of it'll just depend on, uh,

1:00:04.120 --> 1:00:07.080
<v Speaker 5>when it feels right to go. But there's a lot

1:00:07.080 --> 1:00:08.840
<v Speaker 5>of things I'd like to be doing, like a lot

1:00:08.840 --> 1:00:11.880
<v Speaker 5>of different things. I think I brought up a project

1:00:11.880 --> 1:00:14.360
<v Speaker 5>to you once that I wanted you to do that.

1:00:14.400 --> 1:00:15.440
<v Speaker 6>I'm still hoping.

1:00:15.560 --> 1:00:20.840
<v Speaker 1>Are you, oh, we're proposisiting each other now? Yes? Yeah, yeah,

1:00:20.920 --> 1:00:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Yes'm I'm the king of yes. And then Steve laughs.

1:00:24.560 --> 1:00:27.360
<v Speaker 1>That mean, like, when you're going to fit the senior schedule.

1:00:27.120 --> 1:00:28.600
<v Speaker 3>Can you be the king of follow up?

1:00:29.440 --> 1:00:32.240
<v Speaker 6>The schedule is always tough. Yeah, and it's the worst.

1:00:32.400 --> 1:00:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So do you plan your summers early? Like, are

1:00:35.000 --> 1:00:36.680
<v Speaker 1>you a I need some charge.

1:00:37.080 --> 1:00:39.160
<v Speaker 6>Because so many things fall apart.

1:00:39.240 --> 1:00:42.440
<v Speaker 5>I mean in this just in this industry, you think

1:00:42.480 --> 1:00:45.120
<v Speaker 5>you're doing one thing, so then you don't plan for

1:00:45.160 --> 1:00:47.560
<v Speaker 5>something else, and then that falls apart. So it's really

1:00:47.640 --> 1:00:51.320
<v Speaker 5>just like it's it's very frustrating. And then to know

1:00:51.400 --> 1:00:57.760
<v Speaker 5>that I am taken from September to May, that's really tough.

1:00:57.880 --> 1:01:00.880
<v Speaker 6>So that'll sort of be the decide factor.

1:01:00.720 --> 1:01:08.480
<v Speaker 1>If there is an important enough offer, are you giving

1:01:08.640 --> 1:01:11.040
<v Speaker 1>leeway to take this week off?

1:01:11.160 --> 1:01:17.320
<v Speaker 5>And then I think now they've been more lenient. I

1:01:17.320 --> 1:01:19.760
<v Speaker 5>mean maybe I shouldn't say that out loud, but it

1:01:19.920 --> 1:01:25.040
<v Speaker 5>seems like it that they're that they're letting us sort

1:01:25.040 --> 1:01:28.440
<v Speaker 5>of do that a little bit more to some seniority

1:01:28.560 --> 1:01:32.840
<v Speaker 5>kind of Yeah, and I think it's I think he

1:01:33.080 --> 1:01:35.760
<v Speaker 5>likes having an established cast and having people that know

1:01:35.840 --> 1:01:37.640
<v Speaker 5>each other, and it's sort of like, if that's how

1:01:37.760 --> 1:01:41.040
<v Speaker 5>to keep people, that maybe is the way to go.

1:01:42.520 --> 1:01:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's like Lawrence Scorsese's like, I gotta have you

1:01:46.120 --> 1:01:48.960
<v Speaker 1>as DeNiro's daughter and the Irish man. Can you do

1:01:49.000 --> 1:01:50.280
<v Speaker 1>it these reasons?

1:01:50.320 --> 1:01:52.120
<v Speaker 6>I think then Lauren would make me.

1:01:52.440 --> 1:01:55.280
<v Speaker 1>I love it. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Okay, cool.

1:01:55.720 --> 1:02:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh one last thing. I was there when you did

1:02:00.400 --> 1:02:06.479
<v Speaker 1>the last uh I say, the last White House Correspondents dinner.

1:02:06.560 --> 1:02:07.400
<v Speaker 6>Oh yeah, what was.

1:02:07.320 --> 1:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>That like for you?

1:02:09.560 --> 1:02:12.360
<v Speaker 5>It was so it was terrifying because they asked me

1:02:12.480 --> 1:02:16.400
<v Speaker 5>in August or something and it's not till April, so

1:02:16.440 --> 1:02:20.360
<v Speaker 5>I had like months to doubt myself and think about failing.

1:02:20.920 --> 1:02:24.600
<v Speaker 5>But it was like again, I'm a big Obama head,

1:02:25.280 --> 1:02:28.800
<v Speaker 5>and it was like I just and everyone was like,

1:02:28.880 --> 1:02:31.320
<v Speaker 5>don't do it. Nobody liked you never win. You don't

1:02:31.320 --> 1:02:32.880
<v Speaker 5>win in that room. The best you can do is

1:02:32.880 --> 1:02:35.720
<v Speaker 5>break even. But I was like, but it's Obama, so

1:02:35.760 --> 1:02:42.280
<v Speaker 5>I have to do it. People or no industry people. Yeah, yeah,

1:02:42.440 --> 1:02:44.680
<v Speaker 5>we're definitely trying to talk me out of it.

1:02:44.720 --> 1:02:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I see people remember that. People just remember that you

1:02:47.200 --> 1:02:49.240
<v Speaker 1>did it, I mean, or unless you really want to

1:02:49.280 --> 1:02:51.840
<v Speaker 1>make a mark, like Michelle Wolf and like really laid

1:02:51.880 --> 1:02:54.560
<v Speaker 1>it down. But I thought it was great.

1:02:54.640 --> 1:02:55.560
<v Speaker 3>It was a few in the pass.

1:02:55.560 --> 1:02:56.160
<v Speaker 6>I really killed it.

1:02:56.240 --> 1:02:57.640
<v Speaker 3>But now you did you say it? I'm like, I

1:02:57.640 --> 1:02:59.480
<v Speaker 3>can't even remember who was I killed it?

1:02:59.520 --> 1:03:02.280
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, yeah, right, well I think had a big one.

1:03:02.880 --> 1:03:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, which one was? Do you that Obama wrapped?

1:03:07.240 --> 1:03:09.360
<v Speaker 6>I don't know, but Keegan was there. That was when

1:03:09.440 --> 1:03:10.000
<v Speaker 6>I was there.

1:03:10.040 --> 1:03:13.360
<v Speaker 5>That was like, oh great, that was right before I go, oh,

1:03:13.360 --> 1:03:14.040
<v Speaker 5>that was the same one.

1:03:14.360 --> 1:03:15.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that was a good night though.

1:03:16.040 --> 1:03:18.400
<v Speaker 1>It was. Yeah, I thought it was excellent. I thought

1:03:18.400 --> 1:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>it was it was tasteful, it.

1:03:19.720 --> 1:03:21.880
<v Speaker 5>Was very it was cool, and it was the first

1:03:21.920 --> 1:03:25.760
<v Speaker 5>it was I brought like fifteen people, my entire family

1:03:25.840 --> 1:03:30.280
<v Speaker 5>and my grandfather and grandmother in Arlington National Cemetery Colonel

1:03:30.280 --> 1:03:32.640
<v Speaker 5>Cecils Struck And it was the first time I went

1:03:33.320 --> 1:03:36.560
<v Speaker 5>with my dad to his parents' graves.

1:03:36.680 --> 1:03:39.479
<v Speaker 6>So that was it was a very emotional trip as well.

1:03:40.040 --> 1:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>That's awesome. Well, I'm glad you made that decision and

1:03:43.720 --> 1:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>not to listen to anyone that helped you talk to

1:03:47.120 --> 1:03:49.440
<v Speaker 1>yourself out of a yeah, a great opportunity.

1:03:49.720 --> 1:03:53.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, I mean I'm always going to take the

1:03:53.200 --> 1:03:55.480
<v Speaker 5>chance to sit next to Michelle Obama.

1:03:55.720 --> 1:03:57.960
<v Speaker 3>That's a small group of people who asked to do that,

1:03:58.120 --> 1:03:59.600
