Over its 50+ years Saturday Night Live has had many star making (and breaking) moments, including the coveted role of anchor on the show's Weekend Update news report. But when Seth Meyers departed that role for his own late night gig, who could have guessed that his successor would become the longest running anchor in show history. Colin Jost was born for the role, editing his high school newspaper, then becoming a cub reporter, then sending in a writing packet to SNL and getting hired in 2005. From there he became head writer, then he stepped into the Weekend Update slot which he (and long-time co-anchor Michael Che) have made must watch material. What will he do for an encore -- marry Scarlett Johansen? As always, find extended clips below and thanks for sharing our shows. Want more Colin Jost? The twice-yearly SNL joke swap has become a fun fixture of the show. In it, Jost and co-anchor Michael Che write jokes for each other that they must read live on air for the first time. Needless to say the results are gleefully inappropriate. https://youtu.be/-1uC5tBGlNg?si=rUKdClWZPf8JnQyy Colin's standup covers a broader range than Weekend Update, as in this bit from the Just for Laughs Festival. https://youtu.be/yPSFJwORLH0?si=8XsmAPKM7qdvATsn Most recently Colin has scored a major sketch role with his amped up portrayal of War Secretary Pete Hegseth. https://youtu.be/vZb1WO1_lGI?si=t0gKHXoxaP88w32b  

On this episode of Black and Snerdy, Ode (⁠@thatsod.e⁠ / ⁠@thatsod_e⁠) and Mo "Kid" Licorish (⁠@licorishislegit⁠) break down the Netflix roast of Kevin Hart, diving into standout appearances from Usher, Pete Davidson, Chelsea Handler, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, while unpacking why the lineup of comedians—including Shane Gillis, Jeff Ross, and Tony Hinchcliffe—sparked deeper conversations about race, comedy, and who gets to say what on stage. They question the lack of Black stand-up representation compared to figures like Katt Williams and Sheryl Underwood, react to Michael Che's viral take on how different communities approach roasting, and dissect why certain jokes—especially the George Floyd reference—landed as tone-deaf instead of funny.They then shift into a detailed review of Drake's Iceman album, comparing it to his earlier work and debating whether the project shows growth or creative stagnation. The discussion touches on Kendrick Lamar's lingering presence in Drake's lyrics, critiques of repetitive songwriting, and the broader issue of bloated album releases, with comparisons to The Mandalorian's decline and a “Temu album” critique that perfectly captures the project's inconsistency. Along the way, they also analyze Drake's use of Michael Jackson imagery in the album rollout and question whether the execution matches the ambition behind it.

The SNL Season 51 finale was Saturday night with Will Ferrell and Paul McCartney, but the big anticipation was about the Joke Swap tradition done by Colin Jost and Michael Che

Y'all had a LOT to say about last week's episode. So much that we had to open with the receipts.Ryan is still standing by his take. The comment section is still unhinged. And somehow in the middle of all of that, we ended up talking about a Dominican village where one in every 90 children is born appearing female… and grows a penis at puberty. Make it make sense.This week we got into all of it — fake doctors, Kevin Hart's worst decision, Drake dropping three albums (why), Chris Brown getting a 1.3 from Pitchfork, and a biology lesson none of us were ready for.It's a lot. Let's go.⸻Segment BreakdownAm I the Asshole? — The Response EpisodeThe internet came for Ryan's neck over last week's AITA take, and he isBuddenacking down. Not even a little. Joyhdae is somewhere in the middle, which is somehow worse.Dr. Cheyenne Bryant — “A License Is Only for Insurance”She called herself a doctor for years. Appeared on Breakfast Club, Joe Budden, Shannon Sharpe. Then a DC journalist asked the simple questions and the whole thing unraveled. We get into the credentials controversy, what Argosy University actually was, and why Black women with real degrees were absolutely not letting this slide.The Kevin Hart Netflix RoastA George Floyd joke. Shane Gillis headlining. Kevin Hart laughing. Joyhdae has had enough of Kevin Hart and she has reasons. Ryan is leaning her way. Michael Che's post-roast commentary was the most incisive thing anyone said about the whole situation, and he wasn't even there.Chris Brown's Album Got a 1.3 — Pitchfork Said “Real Piece of Sh*t”27 tracks. A Pitchfork review that went nuclear. And Breezy clapping back with “we kicking ass goddammit.” Joyhdae has never actually listened to a Chris Brown album since the first one, and stands firm.Drake Dropped Three AlbumsIceman, Habibti, and Maid of Honor — allegedly to exit his deal and sell his catalog. Ryan listened to all three. The verdict is… it's Drake. Joyhdae continues her lifelong streak of not listening to a full Drake album. Kendrick still lives in his head.The Guevedoces — Penis at 12In a village in the Dominican Republic, one in 90 children is born appearing female and grows male genitalia at puberty due to a rare enzyme deficiency. The community calls them guevedoces. The research from this village literally led to the creation of finasteride. Joyhdae brought this to the table and Ryan's response was to immediately figure out how far away he could move. The gender conversation this opened up? We're coming back to it.Dad JokesBoth of them were reaching this week. But they crack themselves up - so it is what it is.⸻Drop it in the comments:If you came here because y'all were in Joyhdae's comments saying Ryan was wrong — welcome. You found us.

Johnny Mac reports Conan O'Brien will host the 99th Oscars on March 14, 2027, noting muted social media reaction and quoting Disney TV Group president Craig Erwich praising Conan's “singular comedic voice.” He discusses a new Strike Force Five podcast where Stephen Colbert reflects on having only a few Late Show episodes left, uncertainty about future plans, and staff needing to vacate offices immediately after the finale; he also recounts guests he'd ban, guests he found attractive, and recent on-air kisses with Jimmy Fallon, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Pedro Pascal. CNN will air a flash doc, “The Last Laugh: Stephen Colbert.” On the Kevin Hart roast, Variety says Michael Che and others dropped out due to scheduling; Che criticizes differences in roast writing and highlights mostly white joke writers, while Lil Rel Howery condemns Tony Hinchcliffe's George Floyd joke. Johnny's Comedy Stock Market: buy Tony Hinchcliffe and Ian Karmel, hold Kevin Hart, sell Kam Patterson and Nikki Glaser. He closes with highlights from Flight of the Conchords' reunion show.00:19 Conan Hosts Oscars Again01:24 Strike Force Five Returns01:37 Colbert Finale Emotions03:22 Colbert's On Air Kissing Streak04:16 CNN Doc And Radar Shade05:05 Kimmel Summer Strategy06:09 Che On Kevin Hart Roast07:08 Cut Jokes And Controversy08:09 Haddish Ross And Howery React09:35 Comedy Stock Market Picks11:44 Flight Of The Conchords Reunion13:33 Subscribe And Sign Off14:06 Hip Hopopotamus ClipBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac-a-daily-briefing-on-comedians-and-the-comedy-industry--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News is the number one comedy news podcast, delivering daily coverage of standup comedy, late night television, comedy specials, tours, and the business of comedy.COMEDY SURVIVOR in the facebook group.Contact John at John@thesharkdeck dot com For Uninterrupted Listening, use the Apple Podcast App and click the banner that says Uninterrupted Listening.  $4.99/month John's Substack about media is free.This is the animal sanctuary mentioned in the February 10 episode.

Nick looks back at one of Kenan Thompson's funniest SNL characters, Willie. A regular Weekend Update correspondent and Michael Che's neighbor, Willie is brought on to lift spirits whenever the news gets too heavy. He's endlessly upbeat, even though his life is about as rough as it gets. Created by Che and Thompson, the character quickly became a fan favorite thanks to the way Willie cheerfully shares some truly awful personal stories. You'll hear several of his best Update appearances, along with the origin of the character and some behind-the-scenes details. It's hard not to feel a little better about your own life after spending time with Willie. [Ep 174]

Kevo is BACK! Michael Che, Jimmy Kimmel & others show themselves for what they are. Cowards & Elitist. However we should not call for their removal. That's a bell that can't be un-rung if it gets rung. The POTUS needs to stop demanding people to be removed from air. David Cross is an idiot & needs to stop with the "Trans-promoting rhetoric"! It is evil...but he is a sheep like so many in Hollywood. And men...if a stranger touched your wife in a sexual way unsolicited....what would you do? You will be shocked at what so many said about the husband defending his wife's honor. Wow. All that & more on Unwavering - Toxic Masculinity from The Dude's Den.

Mark takes your calls! Bruce Springsteen made headlines after delivering a sharply political speech at his Minneapolis concert, calling the Trump administration “corrupt, incompetent, racist, reckless, and treasonous.” Trump fired back on Truth Social, calling Springsteen a “total loser” and urging MAGA supporters to boycott his concerts. Meanwhile, NASA's Artemis II mission has been dealing with a recurring toilet malfunction aboard the Orion spacecraft, and a frozen vent line has prevented the crew from properly flushing urine overboard. However, the issue has been resolved.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Over the weekend, the U.S. military successfully rescued both crew members of an F-15E Strike Eagle that was shot down over Iran. Mark breaks down how the dramatic rescue operation unfolded. While the airman was hiding in the mountains of Iran, the IRGC offered a $60,000 reward for any Iranian who could locate the crew member. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth fired Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George, along with two other generals, in a significant shakeup at the Pentagon amid the ongoing war with Iran. Savannah Guthrie returned to the TODAY show anchor desk this morning for the first time since her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, went missing from her Arizona home on February 1. Mark interviews NY Post columnist Michael Goodwin. The discussion turns to President Trump's recent social media posts directed at Iran, including a comment about Muslims, and whether the media holds Trump to the same standard it held President Biden. Michael argues that Trump's willingness to go after the press is a key reason why the double standard exists. Michael also weighs in on NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani as he approaches his first 100 days in office, with the city's budget crisis front and center.

Send a textA $200 room. Sixty seats. One comedian who refuses to wait for permission. We sit down with Nick Moore to unpack how a DIY special can punch above its weight when the writing is tight, the venue fits your voice, and the hustle has roots in barbershops and trunk sales rather than budgets with too many zeros.Nick takes us from Little Rock to Memphis, where silence taught sharper timing, and into Portland, where a small theater turned into a perfect canvas for Stay Black and Dad. He explains why nine years on stage distilled into three or four years of focused material, how the “funeral bit” graduated from closer to opener, and why rewriting old notebook lines can turn a dusty premise into a clean kill. We dig into influences ranging from Dave Chappelle and Ali Siddiq to Michael Che and Red Foxx, not for name-dropping, but to show the throughline: calm control, patient pacing, and jokes that carry their own weight.We also get candid about money, festivals, and tape. Not everyone has $150K for a special, and most don't need it. A modest room with hot energy records better than a cavern, and festival weekends can cover cameras and audio if you ask the right way. Nick's barbershop-era DVD run proves physical media still builds community, while a brush with America's Got Talent reveals the ruthless clarity of a 90-second set. Through it all, the theme holds: write like every bit could close, choose rooms that serve your rhythm, and publish even when a giant drops the same week. Craft over clout, presence over noise, and laughs that travel farther than your budget.If this conversation fires you up, hit follow, share it with a comic who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review telling us your favorite DIY tactic for getting from open mic to special.Support the show

Nick begins a series of shows devoted to Vanessa Bayer, one of the most consistently funny cast members Saturday Night Live ever had. He talks a bit about her real-life story, including surviving cancer as a kid, and how that strength and optimism seemed to carry into her work on the show. He spends this hour revisiting Laura Parsons, the relentlessly upbeat child performer who somehow finds pure joy in acting out scenes from Brokeback Mountain and The Wolf of Wall Street. The joke never gets old because Bayer commits completely, smiling her way through material that no kid should be that excited about. Her Weekend Update bits are just as strong, especially when she's reporting on wildly inappropriate topics with total innocence. Guest appearances from Lady Gaga and Scarlett Johansson add to the chaos, and Michael Che trying to keep things under control on Update makes it even better. It's a funny, affectionate look at one great character and a reminder of why Vanessa Bayer's run on SNL was so special. [Ep 164]

Mike started this podcast so that one day Michael Che would come on. Today is that day. In this all-timer episode, Mike and Che work out tons of jokes and discuss the advice Lorne Michaels gave to Che that he'll never forget, how Che went from designing and selling t-shirts on the street to being a stand-up comic, and what keeps him coming back to SNL. Plus, the time Che nearly did something to Colin Jost on air that he would really regret.Please consider donating to Food Bank For NYC Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. How has life been treating you?Comedy is such a beautiful art form. Just like house music and music in general.Anything that is really funny is because we know it to be true in our gut, but it's wrapped up and opened in surprising ways. You feel it. It's undeniable.Love Patrice O'Neal (RIP) and Bill Burr, followed by Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy, Shane Gillis, and Jimmy Carr. This is where the first group begins with the Canadian Comedians, who are Russell Peters (a fellow Canadian), Jim Carrey (Canadian), and Dana Carvey (Canadian), then the list continues with Will Ferrell and Jamie Foxx, before transitioning to the Asian Comedians: Joy Koy (fellow Asian), Jimmy O. Yang (fellow Asian), and Ronny Chieng (fellow Asian). Finishing my favs list are Robin Williams, Anthony Jeselnik, Sebastian Maniscalco, Michael Che, Steve Emerson, Mark Normand, Louis C.K., Key & Peele, Ian Bagg (Canadian), Eddie Griffin, Phil Hanley, Jay Pharoah, Katt Williams, Conan O'Brien, Ralphie May (RIP), Matt Rife, Daniel Tosh, Craig Ferguson, Bill Maher and Norm Macdonald (RIP).Unapologetic and increditble truth and story tellers. More philosophers than joke writers.Zero convincing. It's either good or it's not._________________It's the same with house music. It's undeniable. You either love it as soon as you hear it or you don't care for it.That's why it's such an emotional, physical and mental release. When we receive it and the tracks connect with us. We get goosebumps because it's so good.I think about how music and other art forms affect me and why. Why do I love certain artists?It's that ones that respect that purity in making, sharing and others receiving their art.When I'm DJ'ing in front of a crowd, there is nothing like it. I've spend 4-8hrs the week before prepping the tracks that I'd like the option of spinning. Then seeing people's reactions to each track that I LOVE that MOVE me... dropping them and seeing the reactions. The giving and receiving.When out dancing and receiving a DJ's vision of house music. What they love and how they put everything together. It's so beautiful.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. All the best to you.Cheersdattrax---------------You're on our main site with almost 200 mixes.

Over the last few years, Bob Chapman has been honored to present the message of Truly Human Leadership to more and more audiences. Whether to a group of manufacturing executives, city government leaders, business students, human resources professionals, and countless others, the goal remains the same. Bob wants people to understand that the way we lead impacts the way people live. Bob has long been inspired by the work of The Aspen Institute and their contribution to the conversation around leadership in the world. So, it was an honor when he was invited to speak at the 2017 Aspen Ideas Festival alongside a diverse slate of names, such as New York Times columnist David Brooks, Sen. Cory Booker, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, Former HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros, Saturday Night Live Weekend Update anchors Michael Che and Colin Jost, Katie Couric, Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner, Pulitzer-Prize winner Thomas Friedman, Political Writer Bill Kristol, and Author Susan Orlean. “The Privilege of Leadership” was the theme of his talk, where he was able to tell the stories of our learnings and journey at Barry-Wehmiller to this esteemed audience. It is our hope that our message took root in many of the discussions that occurred and will continue to resonate afterward, causing action and change in more and more organizations. On this podcast we share an edited version of Bob's presentation. 

Kevin Nash has a lot on his mind this week, and it goes far beyond the Knicks. From getting high before a back workout to debating the collapse of American politics, this episode moves fast and hits hard. Expect tangents, truths, and a few curveballs only Big Sexy could throw. There's a new movie in the pipeline, a Martin Short story that involves a robe, and some choice words about the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Nash shares a few memories from the road, reflects on his singing skills, and maybe overshares about what it's like to receive Uber Eats in nothing but a talk show gift. The conversation turns serious as Kevin and Sean tackle issues like autism, dyslexia, and how the education system fails kids who don't fit the mold. They also respond to a heartfelt message from a listener whose son with autism is a big fan of the show. It's one of the most personal segments they've done in a while. Later, they go deep into testosterone replacement therapy, longevity doctors, and what it means to stay sharp, healthy, and functional into your sixties. If you've ever wondered what it's like to navigate aging while still grinding, this is a window into the mindset. And yes, the NBA comes up. Knicks, Pacers, Vegas odds, and the unspoken truth about who the networks actually want in the Finals. It's a mix of hoops and hustle, politics and pop culture, heart and heat.

Comedian Rosebud Baker has gone through intense tragedy, grief and addiction in her life. But for her, nothing has been more viscerally “traumatic” than the experience of becoming a mother. Baker—who grew up traditionally conservative as the granddaughter of George H.W. Bush's secretary of state James Baker—finds a way to turn that trauma into super dark comedy in her new Netflix special ‘The Mother Lode,' half of which she recorded while pregnant and the other half after giving birth. In this episode, Baker discusses how her political upbringing has influenced her approach to both parenting and comedy and how becoming a mother has only made her more ambitious to succeed as a comedian. She also discusses the unique challenges of her role as “Weekend Update” writer on ‘Saturday Night Live,' what makes a great joke for Colin Jost and Michael Che, why she thinks her viral comments about ‘SNL' host Travis Kelce “practicing reading” were misconstrued, and why she's “dying” to perform at a celebrity roast.
