218: "Jeffrey Jones 2020" - How High (2001)

Happy 4/20!  We watched How High.  Why did we do such a thing?  Well, Tracy Morgan and Garrett Morris show up for about 25 seconds as spokesmen for Porkchops O' Chunky.  That's right, two SNL alums are in this movie for less than a minute and they're on the TV in the background of a scene.  This is a very bad movie where terrible people do terrible things and are rewarded for it.  For the second time in Saturday Night Jive history Jeffrey Jones (a convicted sexual predator) comes off as the best person in the film.  Enjoy!

217: "No Pandemic Gonna Stop Me From My Bucket Of Chicken" - SNL Season 6 Episode 5 - David Carradine / Pirates Of Penzance

We're still social distancing and recording over Skype so pardon the audio quality but no pandemic gonna stop us from talking about an old ass episode of Saturday Night Live.  This is one from the infamously bad season 6 hosted by David Carradine and featuring a musical performance from the cast of The Pirates Of Penzance.  We picked this episode because we pulled Gail Matthius out of the hat but this episode has a drunk host, valley girls, Eddie Murphy, multiple Carl Sagan references, chicken, a black Bruce Lee, a not horrendous Weekend Update, Mr. Bill, and of course it wouldn't be an episode of SNL from the 1980s without somethings that have dated poorly (not only talking about Gilbert Gottfried in Chinese makeup).  Enjoy!

216: "Social Distancing With Monkey Puns " - Space Chimps (2008)

It's Andy Samberg week on Saturday Night Jive and we are doing our civic duty by practicing social distancing so we recorded an episode over Skype.  Sorry if the sound quality isn't up to our usual standards but if there was anything we could do that was dumber than watching Space Chimps and talking about it for an hour it's watching Space Chimps and talking about it for an hour over Skype.  This animated tale from 2008 stars Andy Samberg, Cheryl Hines and Patrick Warburton as monkeys sent to space to track down a rover that has fallen into the hands of an evil alien voiced by Jeff Daniels.  It's a real stupid movie and way shittier than we ever expected.  The animation is gross to look at, the script consists almost entirely of monkey puns, and Kristen Chenowith voices a singing light bulb head alien who gets pooped out by a monster.  Also featuring SNL alum Kenan Thompson, this movie sucks almost as much as being quarantined with coronavirus. Enjoy!

215: "Songs By Smash Mouth" - Zoom (2006)

We watched Mystery Men, we watched Rat Race, we watched Inspector Gadget, all of which featured Smash Mouth or songs by Smash Mouth.  Little did we know that the coincidence of life would lead us to Zoom.  This 2006 kiddie superhero flick features SNL alum Chevy Chase and a soundtrack filled with Smash Mouth.  Tim Allen stars as an over-the-hill superhero training a group of kids to fight an unknown enemy.  It's basically just a bunch of training montages strung together with Tim Allen quips and Chevy Chase shtick and Smash Mouth.  We dig deep into why the universe keeps leading us to Smash Mouth or if we are living in some kind of alternate reality where all movies are scored by Smash Mouth.  Enjoy!

214: "A Diaper Full Of Skunk Piss" - Inspector Gadget (1999)

Do you Yahoo?  Well the producers of Inspector Gadget did, or at least they cashed a fat check from the company as they did with Skittles and a slew of other products featured prominently in this movie.  SNL alum Cheri Oteri appears as the mayor in this 1999 CGI crap-fest, so we watched it.  It's got everything a Saturday Night Jive movie should have, terrible editing, callbacks to scenes we didn't see, loads of ADR and sound effects, Dabney Coleman, scenes in the end credits to pad the running time, and, of course, Smash Mouth.  Want to drop us a line or send us some feedback or just say hello?  E-mail us at saturdaynightjivepodcast@gmail.com.  Enjoy!

213: "A Racism Turducken" - SNL Season 10 Episode 16 - Christopher Reeve / Santana

We picked good old Gary Kroeger and since his film career never took off we watched a classic episode of SNL.  We're back to Season 10 exactly where we left off as this is the episode after the Hulk Hogan and Mr. T episode we covered.  Superman himself Christopher Reeve hosts with musical guest Santana.  Sketches include Jackie Roger Jr.'s $100,000 Jackpot Wad, Superman Auditions, Amish Talk Back, Superman In A Nursing Home, Dumb Soldiers, and a Saturday Night News that includes Jim Belushi and his airhorn, Paul Harvey, Buddy Young Jr, and Larry Bud Melman.  Of course there's blackface but there's also some silliness.  We are divided on the quality of this episode but enjoy of talking about it.

212: "We Already Talked About The Talking Cow" - Rat Race (2001)

We picked Jon Lovitz as our SNL alum this week so we watched Rat Race from 2001 st

arring an all-star cast including frequent guest of the show Cuba Gooding Jr, Whoopi Goldberg, Amy Smart, Breckin Meyer, Rowan Atkinson, John Cleese, Seth Green, the exciting new find Vince Vieluf, Smash Mouth, Hitler's car, Dean Cain, Space Jam's Wayne Knight, Paul Rodriguez and Kathy Bates.  It's a crazy movie that we both enjoyed.  We have still yet to answer the question of whether the cow talked or not but we talk a lot about this movie.  Enjoy!
