It's Kenan Thompson week on the show so we watched Snakes On A Plane also featuring fellow SNL alum (and friend of the show) David Koechner. We both found this movie surprisingly enjoyable, but maybe that's because we've seen a lot of crappy movie lately (Looking at you, The Couch Trip). Why choose snakes? How many monkeys can one snake flip? What's the opposite of venom? And why choose snakes? These questions and more on this week's episode of Saturday Night Jive. Enjoy!

By special request we're talking about the episode of Saturday Night Live hosted by Elon Musk. Oooh boy was this an unpleasant viewing experience. Elon Musk makes you long for the days when the show would always have quality hosts like Mr. T, Hulk Hogan, Nancy Kerrigan, and George Foreman, you know, true acting powerhouses. Nowadays I gotta watch Elon Musk read his lines clumsily off cue cards next to SNL cast members who are pretty much doing the same thing. Everything sucks in this one, except for Beck Bennett's Pennsylvanian accent. Sketches include all 47 cast members talking to their mothers, Gen Z Hospital, The Ooli Show, Wario Trial, Chad in space, and a sketch where cowboys talk about Elon Musk while the show secretly puckers up to plant a big one on his ass. Enjoy!

Yeah, we watched Wild Things, the erotic thriller from 1998. Yeah, we're brothers who don't regularly watch movies with a lot of nudity together. But Bill Murray is in it, so that's why we both got boners together seeing a lot of Denise Richards boobs and Kevin Bacon dong. This isn't typically the type of film we watch but it held our interest. Matt Dillon is a high school guidance counselor, Denise Richards is a spoiled rich girl, Neve Campbell is the girl from the other side of the tracks, Kevin Bacon is a cop hot on their tail, and Bill Murray is a shyster lawyer and they're all scheming and fucking each other. Enjoy!

4 SNL alums make up the turd we watched this week. The Couch Trip stars Dan Aykroyd and features Victoria Jackson, Mary Gross, and a cameo from Chevy Chase. We also get Charles Grodin, Walter Matthau and Arye Gross. This is a stinker. Aykroyd stars as a conman locked in a mental institution who escapes and pretends to be a psychiatrist in L.A.. He talks fast, romances Donna Dixon, and does a whole lot of unfunny things. Enjoy!

We watched Sextuplets because Molly Shannon shows up in one scene. Some piece of shit Netflix comedy starring 6 Marlon Wayans and 0 farts. I don't know how a movie that looks this shitty could be so boring. You'd think the creator of Little Man could at least give us something so bad it's good, but instead it's just an exercise in banality. Enjoy!

It's the anniversary of Pearl Harbor, the Lebanese hostages were just released, and rap superstar Hammer hosted Saturday Night Live. We travel back to 1991, a year when we couldn't stop kicking and slapping our friends, to watch another old-ass episode of SNL. Sketches include a George Bush Cold Open, Bad Haircut Support Group, Pearl Harbor Headlines, Queen Shenequa on Weekend Update, Tales From The Barbeque, Johnny Letter, Remembrances Of Love with Wilt Chamberlain, Dick Clark's Receptionist, and 3 songs by Hammer. Special thanks to our sponsor Wilson Chainsaws for bringing their fine product to this episode. Never forget those Lebanese hostages who were 2 legit 2 quit. And a shout out to Julia Sweeney's boobies (take that search engine optimization, now if anyone ever does a Google search for Julia Sweeney's boobies they will land on this podcast). Enjoy!

Hey, all you fart fanatics. You ready for some tasty ass blasters? SNL alums Molly Shannon and Kevin Nealon both appear in Good Boy! from 2003. Why do they keep making these shitty talking dog movies and why do they keep casting former SNL cast members? It's gotta be a conspiracy to get us to watch them. Featuring a lifeless voice performance from Matthew Broderick and an award nominated fart from the legendary Carl Reiner (as a dog). This movie really sucks but we have some fun talking about it. We update the IMDB trivia section, Mr. Skids makes his return to give you the fart lowdown, we plead for respect for Ernest P. Worrell, and wonder if you could still take a shit if you knew your dog understood what was going on. Enjoy!

If I've said it once I've said it 100 times, chicken make lousy house pet. This week we're doing something new. Instead of watching a movie or an old-ass episode of Saturday Night Live we're going to focus on a single recurring character and their evolution through the years. And when you think of SNL recurring characters you probably think The Coneheads, Wayne's World, It's Pat, or maybe something newer like The Californians or Stefon. We went with Ching Chang for out pilot episode.
Who is Ching Chang, you ask? Well, he's a classic character who first appeared in 1986 and made 7 total appearances over 14 years. Dana Carvey plays a lonely Chinese man who loves chickens almost as much as he loves Broadway musicals. We watch him look for love, try to save chickens, sing showtunes, and karate fight a gang.
We also check out another possibly problematic Dana Carvey character with Lyle, The Effeminate Heterosexual. Enjoy!

We pulled Norm MacDonald out of the hat so we decided to watch the episode of Saturday Night Live where he returned to host after being fired. We're both big Norm fans so we obviously liked most of this but since it's an episode of SNL it's hit and miss. Sketches include Lou Gehrig saying goodbye, Celebrity Jeopardy, Larry King, Charlton Heston getting abducted by apes, Chris Parnell lusting over waifs and shaming fatties, a lifeless Weekend Update anchored by Colin Quinn, Norm and Michael Jackson at a bar, Norm and Cheri Oteri dressed as toothbrushes, Martha Stewart bragging about her stocks, Inside The Actors Studio, and the best monologue in SNL history. Enjoy!
We watched City Slickers II: The Legend Of Curly's Gold starring SNL alums Billy Crystal and Jon Lovitz. But we ended up liking it and having very little to talk about. So we also watched another old ass episode of Saturday Night Live. This one from Season 11 (the dreaded Robert Downey, Jr. year) hosted by Pee Wee Herman with musical guest Queen Ida And The Bon Temps Zydeco Band. Sigh... It's got more blackface, this time Terry Sweeney as Diana Ross. It's a not so good episode that is making us want to stop watching the show, but we'll be back next week doing the same damn thing. Sketches include Pee Wee in love with his teacher, Pee Wee saving Dinosaur Town, Pee Wee falling from the World Trade Center, Pee Wee in a locker room with Randy Quaid, The Pat Stevens Show, Tommy Flanagan in prison, a teenager with pregnancy tips, a money making seminar, and Terry Sweeney in blackface. Enjoy!

We lost a cool cat recently in Charles Grodin. A guy we have loved in movies like The Ex and Clifford (previous episodes) plus movies we haven't watched for our stupid podcast like Heart And Souls, Dave, Heaven Can Wait and The Heartbreak Kid. One day we will watch Taking Care Of Business starring Grodin and the superior Belushi. In tribute we watched the episode of Saturday Night Live that he hosted from Season 3 where he missed dress rehearsal, flubbed all his lines, and was unaware that the show was live. An episode that is frequently listed as one of the few that got a host banned is actually a completely obvious bit that was pre-planned and scripted in every way. We're torn on this one. While George appreciated the change in format, the experiment, and Charles Grodin's commitment to being the worst, Ben hated every single thing about it (probably because he don't smoke the wacky tobaccy). Sketches include Charles Grodin ruining a samurai sketch, Charles Grodin ruining a Killer Bee sketch, Consumer Probe, a weak Weekend Update, a skippable musical guest, Garrett Morris talking about groin injuries, Hire The Incompetent, a Coneheads Halloween, The Judy Miller Show, and Charles Grodin singing in an Art Garfunkel wig. Enjoy.

It was probably inevitable. We watched The Beverly Hillbillies featuring SNL alum Rob Schneider and Saturday Night Jive regular Dabney Coleman (I swear to God he's in every fucking movie we watch). This was horrible. I'm sorry Dad for making you see this piece of shit in a theater back in 1993. I'm trying to make up for it now by watching it and trying to find something interesting to say about this boring as fuck movie. Where's the boxing kangaroo? Should we still be avoiding The Noid? Where did they get that monkey? Why did they make this? Why the fuck did we watch it? All these questions plus a history lesson on the Gabor sisters and Ben's been eating fish out of a dumpster. Enjoy!

This week on Saturday Night Jive we're breaking down episodes 11 and 12 of Twin Peaks: The Return and we get a whole bunch of Belushi. Gordon Cole visits The Zone, Hawk pulls out a living map, The Mitchum Brothers have a dream, Diane is shady, Sarah Palmer may have eaten a kid, Nadine watches more Dr. Amp, Audrey Horne finally shows up, and there are zombies now? All this and more on this week's episode. Enjoy!
This week on Saturday Night Jive we break down episodes 7 and 8 of Twin Peaks The Return. Not only did we get a Jim Belushi sighting last week but David Koechner came along for the ride as well. This one opens up a can of worms and we try to catch all of them in our mouth. Enjoy!
Still no sign of Jim Belushi but we're only on episodes 3 and 4 of Twin Peaks The Return. We still don't know what's going on but we're getting closer to cracking this case. We get Dougie Jones, Mr. Jackpots, 1-1-9, Wally Brando, and Dr. Jacoby spray painting shovels.
OG SNL cast member Garrett Morris shows up in the 2008 family film Dog Gone. This piece of shit stars a little boy who finds a dog with diamonds up its ass or something. French Stewart plays a thug. Kevin Farley farts. The President of The United States is a white supremacist terrorist who just started a war on his own country's soil. Nothing much makes sense now. This episode was recorded on Jan. 7th 2021 so we got bigger things to discuss than a shitty movie about a shitty dog. Fuck this movie, Fuck Donald Trump, Fuck Terrorism, and Fuck You!
SNL alums Jon Lovitz and Phil Hartman both voice household objects in The Brave Little Toaster from 1987. What a bizarre piece of children's entertainment.
