285: "An Elaborate Network Of Trusses" - Uncle Roy An SNL Recurring Character Study

Oh, goodness.  Welcome back to ...And We're Back the series in our podcast where we dive into an SNL recurring character and discuss everyone of their appearances.  We watched all 3 Uncle Roy sketches and that turned out to be a big mistake.  For the unfamiliar, Uncle Roy was a character played by Buck Henry and the gag is that he's a pedophile uncle who comes over to babysit the kids.  We watch him take pictures of girls in their underwear, rub their private areas, and basically indulge in kiddy diddling foreplay...on a comedy show!  This is one of the more notorious, controversial, and downright unrepentant characters in the show's history.  As a much needed palette cleanser we also watched Fred Garvin: Male Prostitute and Switcheroo from the John Mulaney episode.  Enjoy!

Sketches include
Uncle Roy - Season 4, Episode 5 hosted by Buck Henry
Uncle Roy - Season 4, Episode 20 hosted by Buck Henry
Uncle Roy - Season 5, Episode 20 hosted by Buck Henry
Fred Garvin: Male Prostitute - Season 4 hosted by Margot Kidder
Hollywood Update - Season 43 hosted by John Mulaney

284: "Poop Weiner" - Joey Mack An SNL Recurring Character Study

And we're back with another installment of our award winning segment ...And We're Back where we dive into the history of an SNL recurring character.  This week we're talking about Joey Mack, a Jimmy Fallon creation who's a one-man morning zoo crew with a cavalcade of problematic voices.  We go on a journey through all 5 of his appearances and, surprisingly, grow to appreciate him.  Speaking of problematic, we also watched the sketch where he played Chris Rock in blackface because why not?  If that's not enough we also cover Frondi a mentally challenged Fred Armisen character who technically had 2 appearances (and one of them was in the same episode as one of the Joey Mack sketches and I wanted to watch it again).

Sketches include
Z105 - Season 28 hosted by Eric McCormack
Z105 - Season 29 hosted by Andy Roddick
Z105 - Season 29 hosted by Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey
Z105 - Season 29 hosted by Ben Affleck
Z105 - Season 29 hosted by Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen
Regis Auditions - Season 25 hosted by Joshua Jackson
Gigli - Season 29 hosted by Ben Affleck

283: "Mmmm... Skittles In My Butthole" - Mac & Me (1988)

We watched Mac & Me from 1988 about a tiny alien with a butthole mouth.  Why?  Because Christine Ebersole is in it, that's why.  You think that's stupid?  Well, listen to this.
