If you haven’t listened yet, the Julie Bowen episode is still probably my favorite one.

Re: Saturday Night Live
She and Spade get into that. Some great stories. It’s a VERY funny episode and she comes across as someone that would be incredibly easy to talk to and hang with. She seems genuine. Or as genuine as Hollywood people can be. There’s not nearly as much of the same ol’ Dana stories (or Spade for that matter) and it’s not bogged down with the same shit that has become tiresome at this point. Dana doesn’t talk over her as much and Spade keeps it toned down as well. But it really is one of the funniest episodes they’ve done. Maybe THE funniest.tragabigzanda wrote:weird, i haven't listened to that one yet. Why is she your favorite? She's never been on the show I don't think?

She asked them at one point who their favorite guest has been and they both answer Ed O’Neill. And they said that was the first one. So they must drop these in a very different order from which they are produced. I went back to see if he was the first episode and he wasn’t and I realized I hadn’t listened to it yet. So I did it right after hers and it was a great episode as well. Learned a lot about him and both hosts hadn’t gotten to their “talk over everyone, tell the same stories” shtick that has become so annoying yet.
I started the Sudeikis episode on the way to work. I’m about halfway thru it. Apparently, someone told them not to ask about Ted Lasso so they haven’t gotten into that at all. It’s practically been all SNL stuff up to this point. (I still haven’t seen this week’s Ted Lasso episode yet). I’m not sure I knew George Wendt is his uncle. His mom’s brother. He’s officially the King of KC now. Sorry, Paul Rudd. And Joe.

The Sudekis episode of Fly was one the best ones yet.
