250: "Thanks For Ruining The Podcast" - Dog Gone (2008)

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!

249: "Nobody Is In The Woods For That" - The Brave Little Toaster (1987)

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.

248: "The Diddling Must Not Be Too Good" - The Book Of Henry (2017)

 
SNL alums Bobby Moynihan and Sarah Silverman appear in the 2017 film The Book Of Henry so we watched it for the podcast.  A movie that is not at all what it appears to be.  Marketed as a fantasy filled family movie this is actually a thriller about murder from beyond the grave orchestrated by a child.  Enjoy!

We watched Big Fat Liar because Taran Killam is in it.  We're smart people.  Enjoy!

246: "All He Knows Is Punching" - SNL S20E09 - George Foreman / Hole

 We pulled Morweena Banks out of the hat and picked to watch an episode of Saturday Night Live that she isn't even in.  Oops.  Apologies to Morweena Banks, but you were only on 4 episodes of SNL and we didn't put that into consideration when picking an episode from your season.  But, on the other hand, I feel like I have said the name Morweena Banks on this podcast more than anyone else has said Morweena Banks on a podcast, so maybe you owe me a debt of gratitude.  Once again, apologies to Morweena Banks for getting so out of hand.  Anywho, we watched Season 20 Episode 9 hosted by George Foreman with musical guest Hole.  This episode aired December 17th, 1994 which means today is the 26th anniversary of the first time I saw it.  Strangely enough, getting a guy who has been punched in the face for 40 years to host a comedy show doesn't go that great.  It also doesn't help that these are the worst written sketches.  A guy turns into The Incredible Hulk over and over again, a wedding singer says the name "Uncle Joe" over and over again, Frank Stallone is mocked mercilessly over and over again, George Foreman punches people in the face over and over again.  A lot of the sketches have a very repetitive nature to them.  We also get a Chris Elliott bedtime story, Mike Myers as Adolph Hitler, Matt Foley, some amazing acting by George Foreman (watch him fake bite that hamburger!), a lot of Janeane Garofalo, a film by Bruce McCullough, Michael McKean as Bill Clinton and more!  Enjoy!

245: "Mmmm...Whale" - SNL S11E13 - George Wendt / Francis Ford Coppola / Phillip Glass

 
By special request, one of the weirdest episodes in Saturday Night Live history.  Hosted by Cheers star George Wendt but guest directed by Francis Ford Coppola and musical guest Phillip Glass.  It's an odd one but an interesting one.  Sketches include a monologue interrupted by Coppola, a Vietnam sketch interrupted by Coppola, That Black Girl interrupted by Coppola, George Wendt selling whale meat, Robert Downey Jr in a suitcase, and Ralph Kramden punching his wife in the face.  Enjoy!

244: "Poop Salad" - Problem Child 2 (1991)

 
You like poop?  You like farts?  How about some vomit?  Pee?  We got all that and more with Problem Child 2 starring SNL alums Laraine Newman and Gilbert Gottfried.  A Jon Waters movie for kids is one of the most perplexing things we've seen.  Love it?  Hate it?  I'm not sure and I don't think I ever will be, but it has a lot of gross shit in it.  Enjoy!
