281: "Blazoo" - Canteen Boy An SNL Recurring Character Study

And we're back with another installment of our award winning series ...And We're Back where we dive into the history of an SNL recurring character.  This week it's Canteen Boy.  We all remember Canteen Boy, right?  Adam Sandler plays this naïve (young?  his age is never really established) former boy scout who gets into a whole mess of trouble and has the ability to control snakes.  We cover every sketch (and 2 monologues) featuring Canteen Boy as well as dip into the 2 sketches where Sandler plays Bill Cosby (because when would we ever get a chance to talk about those?).

Sketches include - Block Party - Season 18 hosted by John Goodman
Food Union - Season 18 hosted by Jason Alexander
Garage Sale - Season 19 hosted by Jeff Goldblum
The Headline Store - Season 19 hosted by Christian Slater
Canteen Boy Goes Camping - Season 19 hosted by Alec Baldwin
Heather Locklear Monologue - Season 19
Alec Baldwin Monologue - Season 20

And...
You Bet Your Life - Season 18 hosted by Christina Applegate

280: "Dennis Miller Buys A Coke" - The Net (1995)

The Gatekeepers didn't want you to hear this podcast.  They crashed our computers, they corrupted the files, they made the audio shitty.  But we persevered and completed it anyway.  We watched The Net from 1995 starring Sandra Bullock and SNL alum Dennis Miller.  Half way through the episode George's laptop crashed and we originally thought this was gonna be a lost episode.  I couldn't export half of it so I had to rig another laptop to record the audio from the first laptop that had the recovered file on it and...who really cares?  Point is, we were able to salvage it but George's audio sounds a little crappy.  So if you're wondering why we tease last week's episode at the end of this one, that's why.  The movie is barely worth talking about anyway, the best scene involves Dennis Miller buying a coke at a pharmacy.  So, Enjoy!

279: "Enjoy Sucking My Ass, Friend" - Snakes On A Plane (2006)

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!

278: "So Woke I'm F*cking My Sister" - Say It Isn't So (2001)

Did you know that Sarah Silverman was in Say It Isn't So from 2001?  Did you know Sarah Silverman was an SNL cast member?  Did you know that was the premise of our stupid podcast?  We watch movies featuring SNL cast members and one season featured player Sarah Silverman shows up in this comedy about two young lovers who find out they are brother and sister.  It's the old story of boy meets girl, they find out they are engaging in insest, boy loses girl, boy finds out the insest wasn't true, boy drives cross country to tell girl instead of calling her, girl marries a man who gets jacuzzi BJs from Sarah Silverman.  This is one of the worst movies we've ever seen so we spend most of the time pitching our own insest romantic comedy, which is probably something that should never be made.  Enjoy!

277: "F U Nate" - SNL S46E18 - Elon Musk / Miley Cyrus

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!

276: "A Reverse Fluffer" - Wild Things (1998)

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!

275: "An Unpleasant Experience" - The Couch Trip (1988)

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!
