We couldn't stand the wait to talk more comedy, so we're launching a new Patreon only (for the most part) pod series called, "What's That From? 10 to 1!" In this series between seasons of our regular pod, we (Geoff and Nate) will be talking about every ten to one sketch from the current season of Saturday Night Live. This is the last sketch of the show, the "ten minutes before one AM" sketch. It tends to be the weird one, the one when the writers and the performers stretch out a little and take a bigger swing, a bigger risk than they might in the rest of the show. We'll run down every ten to one sketch of this season and drop them all in our patreon feed. We wanted to keep delivering content AND we just needed to be able to hang out and bullshit. We promise we're keeping the episodes tight, so expect only a few tangents. Maybe a dozen per episode. Check out this intro episode and the first episode of this current season of SNL- both dropping today, December 2nd. Then we'll drop new episodes all through the month of December. Head over to patreon.com/whatsthatfrom to subscribe. Love you all. Thank you as always for supporting our work. Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/whatsthatfrom)

Our good friend, Will Hines (actor, writer, author "How To Be The Greatest Improviser On Earth," host "I Will Write Your Book" podcast) asked us to do a lecture at the comedy school he created, THE WORLD'S GREATEST IMPROV SCHOOL. We did it over zoom in late 2020 and talked about "Five Sketches" we cannot ever forget. We are releasing the audio from our lecture as a bonus episode of the podcast! Thanks again to Will for having us. It was a lot of fun. Hope you enjoy this deep dork dive into sketch comedy from two men who like to think they know what they're talking about.
