00:00:20
she's got funniness someone's yelling at me uh you're being
00:00:26
yelled at the side they're going up the energy you're [ __ ] bombing I'll compensate yeah hey everybody
00:00:34
did you see that little machine there was a morning Zoo crew I met Rachel makes me happy I loved our podcast with
00:00:43
her and you know Debbie Downer we go through all that how it came about
00:00:48
all of her great sketches she's just truly one of I know it's a cliche but it's true organically funny people we've
00:00:56
ever had on our podcast and we've had a lot of funny people and so sweet I met
00:01:01
her early on she did a thing in Dickie Roberts uh that old movie oh a couple people remember thank you Adam plus and
00:01:08
did you get to wear clothes in that she was very funny she's always like scoring in Adam's movies wherever you throw her
00:01:14
she gets a laugh any sketch she gets a laugh she's a super pro and she's like a
00:01:20
uh I just hyper real person like there was no Edge to her that you're Rachel
00:01:26
Dratch you know we actually I think we talked to her about that just just people coming up to her like she used to
00:01:31
be in all people and you know this just came to me she was nervous about meeting hosts she's very shy she doesn't seem
00:01:38
like it I'm shy are you wearing an earpiece because you're especially witty today someone feeding you Lions because
00:01:44
you know just came to me it just came to me no I have a uh a gift a gift no one
00:01:50
wants but we talk about with her a lot of SNL stuff and the phenomenon of just
00:01:56
meeting someone who's way more famous than you and then going through a week of this huge experience they're gonna
00:02:03
have and how nerve-wracking it is when you first meet like a Sharon Stone or whoever uh when you're a cast member so
00:02:10
it's very sweet and on a side note this is the coat I talked about my Netflix special that cost me so much where they
00:02:15
said you can't wear it really outside this is because it's a puffer with leather and they go It ultimately don't
00:02:22
wear the snow rain wind clouds I'm just going to tell you because people are freaking out about this coat they can't focus on what we're saying David I'm not
00:02:28
trying to get us to start a company but the ultimate puffer if you ever want that's a good jacket thing you just said
00:02:33
it you heard it here and this is live the ultimate puffer we put them out they're kind of funny from the fly on
00:02:38
the wall guys yeah I'm just trying to monitor we could have merch I want to be Ryan Reynolds a little bit hi Ryan we could make money because this was 30
00:02:44

00:02:55
we're starting to sell merch right now ultimate leather jacket puffer weapon the perfect puffer perfect puffer and
00:03:02
here's Rachel drags that's good
00:03:10
[Music] that part's not gonna be my start is it I don't know
00:03:17
it could be yeah hi hey you guys it's Rachel Dratch
00:03:23
sometime you're a whiz there's people take like 20 25 minutes to get on this
00:03:29
thing I once took an hour and a half and then David just hosted the show Rachel Ray Rachel still isn't on
00:03:39
hi hi I'm so excited to be here and see you guys that's more like the attitude
00:03:46
we're looking for we like that we've had a lot of your friends on Rachel I know
00:03:52
I've been listening oh you have a lot of really interesting yes I love it okay well it's like a support group and fun
00:03:59
it is it is it's we are alumni of this incredibly bizarre uh wonderfully
00:04:07
bizarre experience called Saturday Night Live you know what's funny is that Dana it's like a sport group in the way that
00:04:14
you can't really complain to outside Viva what Saturday Night Live because they're so happy you're on and they can't
00:04:20
believe you're on it so if you have Micro complaints no one wants to hear them it's like if you do a movie you can
00:04:25
never say I had to get up early you're in a movie and you go oh yeah you're right and they have a point so it is twice so but with other people in a
00:04:32
movie or other people on SNL you can kind of whisper I can't believe they brought us in an hour early today and they go yeah me too
00:04:38
and then they understand you know they cut the best part the best part they cut it
00:04:44
yeah that's all day that's all day when you look at the rundown this [ __ ] got on our set is under the bleachers we're so
00:04:52
far away from the audience we had to cut our entrance I hate this show but enough
00:04:57
about week one no I'll tell Rachel how a story then she'll talk toward the end we
00:05:02
don't like our guests to talk very much because I know I know she knows how sickening no no cause you guys say it
00:05:08
though because you guys stay there okay good because it's not really cheap thing that you see dinner where we all talk to
00:05:13
each other exactly yeah which is good it takes the pressure yeah we don't want to stress you out like it's a great
00:05:19
conversation it's a conversation yeah you don't want to talk that's what we've been trying to tell the production company
00:05:25
don't this is so embarrassing but I couldn't sleep last night because like I was all like I don't know like Christmas
00:05:31
morning about doing this like I don't know oh I had like well we're flat fun anxiety but just I was like oh my God
00:05:37
I'm doing that tomorrow and then I couldn't sleep I don't sleep a lot of nights so it's not a big deal my my mind
00:05:44
goes crazy at night and I didn't sleep very well last night because I knew I'd be seeing you this morning okay
00:05:51
I dreamed about you no it's totally normal we're uh it's kind of a smash
00:05:57
we're sort of a global hit so it's appropriate David say your thing and then we'll let
00:06:03
Rachel talk I forgot my thing you forgot your statement I forgot but I I will tell Rachel just to relax yeah one of my
00:06:11
stories about SNL that it just shows you how it screws with you is um in a good
00:06:17
way um is that uh one time I was doing Coneheads Applause oh I got a couple
00:06:24
people in the back side so why did they call them Coneheads I never got the connection Dana is it because their
00:06:31
heads were shaped like cones I don't think that's it okay um all right so you're in Kona so I mean and the movie
00:06:38
they go the sketch did well do you want to be in a movie that won't work as well and I said yes of course so I I had a
00:06:47
pickup shot which was good because I tested okay and they go Lauren goes we're gonna add a scene with you which
00:06:53
is good news you know I said okay so it's during a show week which is bad
00:06:59
news so on a Rachel knows the drill you have a read through on Wednesday so
00:07:05
after read through um Friday morning I had to fly to do so what happened
00:07:12
after each I took a red eye and they go you're gonna fly to L.A this is such a [ __ ] long story I'm sorry Rachel how
00:07:18
does it relate to it doesn't at all it just shows actually I'll save it because it's so dumb
00:07:24
because everyone's gonna yell at me but I just thought I'd settle Rachel in by saying we all have our pros and cons of
00:07:32
being on SNL and most are pecans obviously but there's some that are harder I I had Pros but I'll just say
00:07:40
this as an overarching word package for you to to digest show business in
00:07:47
general is an emotionally violent sport that's all I'll say it's tough it it and
00:07:54
emotions can be violently great but it's it's a topsy-turvy kind of wickety-woo
00:07:59
there she is she's making a break for it where do you think you're going she's trying to run out of the podcast but
00:08:05
she's clearing I hear people I hear people on the street I'm closing the window okay oh interesting we thought
00:08:11
you're trying to escape no no no no no no so your first day we can bounce wherever you want but I'm just thinking
00:08:17
your first day when you walked in there you knew was Tina already there and
00:08:22
other Tina was there and Adam McKay was there who I knew from Second City yes so so did you just hang on to them a little
00:08:29
bit I mean I mean it's so like I was the only new person that year well there was
00:08:34
one writer that I knew too that was new but I was the only new actor so years you know when you get there this is
00:08:39
19.99 yeah um so when you get there you used to I don't know why I sort of thought there's
00:08:45
gonna be like the welcome packet here's what you do
00:08:56
yeah this is your room yeah and then like I definitely was following Tina around like a lap dog
00:09:03
you're like where do I go but yoshu had her own stuff to do so um but it was me um this writer Ali
00:09:09
faranaki and who we knew each other from Second City and our office was this kind of storage closet that they put um
00:09:18
um but no it was so I had I had we had each other so that was good but um yeah it's definitely like you know throw the
00:09:24
baby in the pool and and see what happens not really telling you what's going on
00:09:31
or where you see what you're standing in the show but on the on the flip side
00:09:36
like the you know SNL like of course it's the dream job as we all know and um
00:09:42
the my dream job moment was before that even happened it was actually the 25th anniversary show so that was my very
00:09:49
first time like even though I had no part in it I was invited to come watch so like I got swept up when I get there
00:09:56
like get into hair and makeup and here's this dress and like you know I was coming for from Second City like there
00:10:02
was no hair and makeup or anything so I had like full Glam Squad and like in the
00:10:07
dressing room was um Lily Tomlin and Elvis Costello and Daniel Craig and that's my very first
00:10:13
and I was like because I mean the only time like I watched her when I was you know four or something yeah and um Elvis
00:10:20
Costello like yeah so and Dan Aykroyd so I was just like I think I literally pinched myself so you know it is the
00:10:28
dream come true and then you know it's like that plus thrown in the pool when you pinch yourself did you wake up or
00:10:34
was it not a dream I was all real okay it was that's a wax museum to walk into those three I mean it spans those are
00:10:42
legendary and it's a mix it's a musical guest music
00:10:47
what was your first character you used to do when you were a little kid what would you do when your dad was being a
00:10:53
radiologist
00:10:59
see right through you no matter when you got drunk in high school the dad the radiologist
00:11:07
I like it um take us back to eight year old Rachel oh my God so eight so I was actually
00:11:14
really shy when I was little I don't know if either of you guys were you were I don't know I was pretty shy and then I
00:11:19
started like not David but my dad my dad was really funny so then but then in
00:11:25
around Junior High I sort of became more like the class clown type and like my friends my my like gal pal friends were
00:11:32
really funny and so and I used to watch SNL like I've discovered it when I was in third grade and I would like make my
00:11:38
friends stay up and watch it yeah third is a little early that's good I know so I had this friend who had an older
00:11:44
brother and like I'd sleep over her house and he was watching I was like what is this you know like I didn't remember the I mean like the B sketch I
00:11:50
didn't understand it at all I don't even know if I still don't yeah exactly but I was still like love it oh my God and
00:11:57
like Samurai and uh Lisa libner like all those I mean Gilda Radner everything and
00:12:02
um so then I was just sort of even though half of it was probably going over my head I was just really into it
00:12:07
and I would watch it every week and make my friends stay upstairs and would you mimic them would you mimic uh no I
00:12:14
wasn't like stuff from it or so weird it's not really this no I mean I wasn't really like doing characters yeah I was
00:12:22
just more like just a funny person into doing the school plays and stuff like that and then like Class Clown school
00:12:29
plays combo sort of thing but I wasn't like a kid who was like I'm gonna be
00:12:35
honest I don't know if you guys were from a young age or what I don't know
00:12:44
that was impossible from 495 Wellington do you remember the address of your familial home mine was 495 oh yeah yeah
00:12:52
I mean it still is my mom's talking oh so can we give that address out and when they're not normally how do you get
00:12:58
there okay Airport
00:13:05
at the end exactly she'd be into that probably I lived at 702 East Brenda in
00:13:11
Casa Grande Arizona take that America 495 Wellington drive home number
00:13:16
landline 415-591-81288
00:13:23
[Music] I still call you on that number oh my number yeah so so Rachel so you're
00:13:31
a little kid and you fall in love with Saturday Night Live and you're you're afraid to even hope at that point I'm
00:13:39
still kind of shy yeah like then in high school I did school plays and stuff like that and um does it help your social
00:13:46
life to be class Clowney uh yeah I would say but I mean all my
00:13:54
friends were funny like I just am I your friend bunny you are and you're very funny no I mean I like like they're
00:14:01
still really I still am in touch with these same women and they're just it's just I don't know we sort of have this
00:14:07
comedy Vibe going on so everyone was funny I have the same thing I have a lot of friends from high school we ran
00:14:12
tracking cross country but I was always doing characters or Little impressions or didn't really know I was a comedian
00:14:17
and I'm friends with them now so they've been with you this whole time yeah oh wow that's that's cool when you
00:14:24
did some of them get known and some went into different fields um none of them went none of them were
00:14:29
really into acting they were just kind of funny sisters you know yeah normal people but oh fun fact which I've
00:14:36
actually said before but um Amy Poehler grew up in the next town over even though we didn't know each
00:14:41
other but we did we did work in the same ice cream palette but not at the same time
00:14:49
called chat Chadwicks uh welcome to Chadwicks what the [ __ ] do you want yeah
00:14:55
you want your [ __ ] Wicked ice cream I can't do it but I love them I I copy you you said Wicked piss oh
00:15:03
you're the one yeah I was watching the Boston thing with Jimmy but yeah I always ask this question no one has an
00:15:09
answer but go ahead finish your thought I liked it I was gonna say but no but then um when I went to college there was an
00:15:15
improv group there and I didn't really know what improv was but I saw this group rehearsing and I was like oh I
00:15:21
think I could do that you know so then that's how I kind of fully was like really into combat it but when I joined
00:15:29
that fun and scary so do you had a moment in high school where you got a little confident somehow like maybe I
00:15:34
meant to maybe kind of do this because I I was asked to speak for the junior varsity cross country team and it came
00:15:40
out kind of funny and stuff I had little episodes like that he came out as church lady
00:15:45
well did you was church lady like a ride actually made the dress from scratch
00:15:50
when I was uh five and they would have me dress in a dress and Prince around no that was much later yeah that could be
00:15:58
real no oh my gosh I love the church I just need to blurt out like I had this fan out
00:16:03
thing let her know of how much I love your characters and oh naughty parts engorged in tingling
00:16:11
it always sounds funnier when someone does it is that what she would say naughty it was such a pornographic
00:16:18
naughty Parton that's because the sensors would didn't want me to say penis so I it's something
00:16:25
it was way more pornographic naughty and gorgeous and almost turned on by it it's like
00:16:33
she's so focused on it well she's a church lady uh that was a very lucky thing I mean
00:16:40
for you so you get you you we're going back for a second so you joined the the college Glee Club yeah the improv group
00:16:49
but so I think what I noticed is um you know there were a lot of like in acting
00:16:54
class or the play or whatever there weren't a lot of people who were into being the comedy part and like that was
00:17:00
the part I always gravitated towards like when people say comedy's hard I'm like no doing the drama part where you
00:17:06
have to be crying your eyes out like to me that's hard I think it's more overtly
00:17:11
embarrassing to be that vulnerable but when you're being funny you're in charge and kicking ass when you're funny yeah
00:17:18
yeah you can ask so um so then I was I don't know I sort of thought like oh
00:17:24
maybe I could do I I at least sort of I wasn't like I'm gonna make it but I was like I at least want to know that I gave
00:17:31
it a shot and then I can go back and do regular I have a regular job I don't know if you guys were like comedy or
00:17:37
Bust or did you have like I just want to try this but but Dana did you you did stand up is that how you well the
00:17:44
stand-up scene they started building comedy clubs on every block at 1979 right as I got out of college I mean
00:17:50
there was no comedy clubs before that so I would just play biker bars and delicatessens but the I said to myself
00:17:57
because it seemed like trying to be the president or the first man on the moon literally I'll try this for 10 till I'm 30 and see
00:18:07
if something happens oh okay okay but then the club I was like exploded what about you well I didn't do stand up at
00:18:13
all I just wanted to do improv and sketch so I was like I'll try to so during the my sophomore summer we went
00:18:19
out to Chicago because one of the guys in our group lived there and I checked out Second City and improv Olympic and I
00:18:25
was like okay I'm gonna try Chicago after college and then just see how it
00:18:30
goes but yeah no High Hopes or anything and so then that's how I I went out there to try it again into Second City
00:18:36
it took a while and I took the classes and everything but then eventually got in well what did Mom and Dad think
00:18:42
because you went to Dartmouth so you're a brainiac and then you're now you're in
00:18:47
what's this seconds who see what you're prancing around in a little costume who the [ __ ] you think you are get a real
00:18:54
job I mean were there or they were just very sweet that was my impression so I mean like I said my dad was sort of he
00:19:01
was into comedy you know he's very funny so he sort of gave it this kind of reverence or whatever so they were sort
00:19:08
of like you know yeah go go try I don't know what their inner monologue was that they were like what the hell is she
00:19:14
doing but um but no they were supportive and then like every year I made a little bit of progress you know like I'd be on
00:19:20
the house team an imprevelent beggar get into the touring company so it wasn't like you know instant success like most
00:19:27
of us no it takes a while so it was sort of like incremental how did you make ends meet as they say and it's okay if
00:19:34
Mom and Dad gave you a little bit no I um I I well first I was also interested in Psychology so I did work in a
00:19:42
a psychiatric hospital for a while oh was John Lovitz there
00:19:47
that's a joke he was a patient for nine years he was not there I did that for a
00:19:53
while because I was still sort of like well maybe I want to be in Psychology like I was still a little torn and then
00:19:59
I also tempt for most of it oh and I was a horrible waiter I got five well I got
00:20:05
downgraded a California Pizza Kitchen I was locked into the bar back position
00:20:10
um but um I couldn't carry all those plates on my
00:20:16
arm well bar back you have to lift 60 pounds oh well whatever I was like the to-go girl whatever and it wasn't it
00:20:23
wasn't a lot of manual labor but no mainly I was a temp I attempt and answered phones
00:20:28
secretary did you live in like an apartment with roommates and stuff was it was it struggling yes I lived in it I
00:20:35
mean Chicago was so fun because you could get this amazing apartment for like three hundred dollars if you had a
00:20:41
roommate you know and the apartment it was just such a fun time like I moved up there barely knowing anybody and then I
00:20:46
was with all these people that you know now I mean we all were there together
00:20:51
um and it was just such a fun time because like you're you know you go do your improv show or just go watch an
00:20:56
improv show at the beginning and then everyone would hang out together so you were with all these funny people all the time and it was it was Adam McKay Tina
00:21:05
okay Tina um later on Amy Poehler and uh oh my gosh so many people
00:21:11
um well like when I was in the touring company um at Second City um Amy Sedaris was on the main stage
00:21:18
like Stephen Colbert and Steve Carell they were on what happened to those guys Colbert and Corral I don't have never
00:21:24
heard from them again but um but they but I didn't like hang with them because they were the people you're like oh look at them you know I was like oh behind
00:21:31
them yeah well Corral's like that he throws his weight around this humblest guy ever but uh but uh no I was more
00:21:38
with yeah like well Tina and um Scott ads to Jack McBrayer Nia vardalos we're
00:21:44
all kind of in the same generation wow um and oh my gosh I'm forgetting like
00:21:49
half of them right now but but everyone oh Brian McCann and and Brian oh Brian McCann oh man let's see funny Conan yeah
00:21:56
yeah John Glazer um anyway it was like it felt like this sort of golden age I
00:22:02
mean maybe everyone felt like that in Chicago at the time because I would think back later and be nostalgic for those early
00:22:08
days but at the time it was sort of a struggle but you were happy at the time like I'm in the Golden Age kind of I
00:22:15
mean it's so like this sounds so Pollyanna but it was I just remember being so like laughing so much what
00:22:22
other people were doing on stage you know like yeah like everyone had their own style and you know know event like
00:22:28
when you first get on the main stage I was like really oh actually SNL came through to scout when I first got on the
00:22:34
main stage and so then like I was you know it wasn't like I was super confident that when I first got on that
00:22:40
big stage you know so I was like definitely not what I'm saying I was like you know scared and you know
00:22:48
improvising in front of this bigger crowd everything so anyway they came through and they they picked like all
00:22:53
these people to go audition but I but except me and like two other people so but I mean now looking back I'm like
00:22:59
okay yeah I didn't really have characters I wasn't did you know who it was pretty green
00:23:09
um that year oh Marcy I think Marcy was there and that year like they took um Dave keckner and Nancy walls I think
00:23:16
Steve Carell's wife I think yeah and um I'm not sure if that was I think that's
00:23:22
the same year but anyway then um but then I was on the stage for like three more years and you know they don't come
00:23:28
through like every year they're coming like you never know right so like they came back three years later and then I
00:23:35
was on and then I had a lot more experience and a lot more characters and and then I got to go audition
00:23:42
[Music] when you did you what was your happening characters that were popular for you
00:23:49
well okay no no I didn't I didn't job this year even though um your second time around still no yeah
00:23:56
second time no then the second time but the first year I did um the Boston thing
00:24:03
because Tina and I had done this Boston Duo because people loved it when they hear voices
00:24:09
uh we were like oh a couple minutes we can smack yeah no it was Tina and I
00:24:16
we were mother Jada shopping at the Burlington Mall um and that was our initial scene and
00:24:22
then when we got to seconds when I eventually got to Estelle we would write those together for um yeah and then you
00:24:28
did them with Jimmy too yeah with Jimmy yeah and um then I didn't really do that
00:24:33
many Impressions but at the time well at the time like Ally McBeal was the Big Show so I did callista Flockhart
00:24:41
for my audition how do you do her yeah it's really kind of just a face which
00:24:46
you can't see on this podcast but it's just like you turn your lip up and kind of look off to the side yeah and then
00:24:53
you kind of stutted but I don't but but like now no one knows that show so it's sort of obsolete I know that's how I got
00:25:01
on whatever I did it on it is a good weird one that's a big point it's weird if you do difficulty
00:25:07
you know you're doing an impression that not everyone does they look at that they go you know what I did for
00:25:21
eigners what which I yeah but I mean I I don't really remember like it's probably
00:25:27
I haven't done this in like 20 years so if I try it right now it'll probably suck but probably pounds down she had
00:25:32
this bit about like should I open up a box of Pop charts and this chew up judging this shoe and now I gotta eat
00:25:38
both Snapchats like that was that was good oh yeah I was working with Paula in San
00:25:45
Francisco and she lived with my wife and I yeah oh really yeah oh so you have like a
00:25:51
scrutinizer no no that was that was Paula she was an amazing uh comedian amazing she is an amazing improviser and
00:25:58
that's very much her and she didn't have one I went obscure I went obscure for that and then I tried it can I hear it
00:26:03
just one more time oh oh it show I opened up a box of Pop Jets and Charlie
00:26:09
just one popped up but this should
00:26:16
I was like all I remember is like my husband didn't I went on vacation
00:26:25
so that's said he wanted to watch the Super Bowl there there you go I didn't
00:26:31
know something like that sounds a little creepy show thing she was good so my opener
00:26:38
went on too long and we're having him beaten up in the alley she's very sweet
00:26:45
she was a great stand-up these were stand-ups didn't they you asked for it
00:26:50
he's a 90s so you're getting the show off these though right this time don't
00:26:55
tell me you don't get the show I did I did the show I don't know if that I don't know if that helped me or not or
00:27:00
hurt me but I did get the show that time yeah yeah so then then it was me like I said CPK
00:27:07
1999 was crushed no by then I was our CPK was
00:27:13
long in my rear view man okay and then I was just at Second City by then yeah yeah and how many years at Second City
00:27:19
before he got an ethanologist well I did you know six years three years touring and then four years on the mainstream so
00:27:26
seven years of preparation just for the young people listen to the podcast so I'm gonna get on it too
00:27:31
I'm gonna get on here it takes a long time yeah shut up man Rachel did seven years but you know what like I think
00:27:37
Cecily Strong got the show like right off of um I don't know from like improv
00:27:43
Olympics back then as you guys might know well Cecily is strong she's good it
00:27:49
sure is um but back then it was like just Second City in the Groundlings and then a few
00:27:55
stand-ups right that's how they used to yeah because now it's much more like where else are they going on the
00:28:00
internet oh yeah like online YouTube James Austin Johnson yeah the the trumpet yeah just online
00:28:08
um so there's so many more spots to be found now yeah well where are they up to now I mean they went when you went on
00:28:14
was it still kind of like 10 cast members with future players it was in the teens the High Teens yeah I feel
00:28:22
like it was 20 back then yeah because it was a pretty fat Dana when we were when we I started with three
00:28:29
lucky no I was three women three men major players and then a couple features
00:28:35
oh yeah we had we had a lot of people well when I first got there um the women were um Molly Shannon on a
00:28:41
guest star and Sherry o'chari and uh you know I'd always admired them it was Tina only doing an update you know it was
00:28:47
just a writer writer they Lauren said you're not really a performer but we're gonna make you a writer
00:28:55
like exactly yeah yeah because I only knew her as a performer back in Second City but um but yeah so she was there
00:29:01
but she was just writing and um and so yeah there I was with with those how did
00:29:07
you bond with with Molly she's kind of mean sometimes right
00:29:12
she was very she was very proud of all three of those on our show yeah very
00:29:17
funny and you would feel great with them yeah you know I I really liked I mean you know when you first get there you're
00:29:22
totally The Freshman you know so yeah like oh you know but um here's your closet there's a lot of props in there
00:29:29
because it's also a prop closet but that's your office no they were all really cool and um yeah
00:29:36
it was like back then it was people like Tim Meadows and Colin Quinn were still on and then when I left the show it was
00:29:42
you know Andy Sandberg and Bill Hader and the whole new crop you know how there's always the yeah so you you
00:29:48
straddled those two generations I've straddled all the generations yeah and all all the male cast members but that's
00:29:54
just I just that's on Wikipedia it's made up it was uh anyway but uh I've
00:30:01
straddled them all so what was your first thing that sort of clicked where you thought you might stick around my
00:30:09
first what'd you say what scene or what uh update oh my gosh oh boy what's so
00:30:15
weird because like you don't feel I don't know like I I well I did the first
00:30:20
character I did was the Boston thing with Jimmy yeah but like you it's not I can't say that I felt like yes now I've
00:30:27
made it you know because you're always like and then now there's next week you know like there's always that pressure but um and Rachel is there a problem
00:30:34
with what happened with my first thing is they don't know me well enough so I did an impression but they don't know
00:30:40
that's different than what I sound like so how good is it because maybe I just sound like that so if you do Boston
00:30:46
maybe they just think you're the New Boston feature player you know she's
00:30:51
just she's playing herself that's not even acting you know what I mean because they go oh and then they see another
00:30:57
stuff they go oh she does that Boston accent pretty good because she doesn't sound like that right right but that
00:31:03
still that was uh that that scored you were on before update I mean it was kind of a God you know what's weird this is
00:31:09
so so whatever I know I know it's better to be on before update like that's how dumb I was like
00:31:16
like even my you know I'd be there later and someone would be pissed if their scene was moved down I and I'd just be
00:31:21
like Oh I'm second to last that probably means it won't get caught her time like I didn't have that it's still in the
00:31:27
show let me get all exactly yeah so um I don't think people watching know that it's bad
00:31:33
they probably don't except that they tune out yeah they probably don't realize yeah they
00:31:39
tap out after yeah it drops off after update yeah yeah it usually goes through I realized that was a thing yeah but um
00:31:46
but yeah and then I don't know the other thing was uh geez I don't know the orator that things worked but um when
00:31:52
did you do what why oh that was towards the end that was I mean that was like my
00:31:58
well actually yeah fifth year there or something but
00:32:05
um but yeah I did the hot tub thing with Will Ferrell right that was fun I watched that that was something that yes
00:32:11
last night that is people mentioned to me uh very very funny let's talk about that because I saw the one with walking
00:32:18
um oh my gosh yeah yeah that was the first thing and he had a lot of lines and I thought
00:32:23
sorry I did a movie with walking yeah he was a little worried about lines because
00:32:30
it's so bulky in the way he speaks that first he had to memorize them which is hard but at least he has cue cards but
00:32:37
God damn is he funny when he talks like that [ __ ] and you guys are all sounding the same oh my gosh he was perfect in
00:32:42
that scene so no this scene was on this these lovers characters that I did with Will Ferrell and it was actually
00:32:48
well the the spark for this character came from a professor that my friend had had in college who my friend said that
00:32:56
she was um not really going to do much for the winter break and the professor said like oh that's a good idea just
00:33:01
read a book take a bath eat a bonbon spend time with your lover and so we
00:33:07
grabbed on to the word lover and I've been saying that for years and years then I don't know will heard me thing
00:33:13
and we wrote those scenes but um those are really fun like one thing I love about the show is like that you can
00:33:18
write in your scene like there's a hot tub on stage and then you get there and there's a working hot yeah they make all
00:33:25
your dreams come true yeah it's true and when you do barf one time we did one with Alec Baldwin where I think Fred
00:33:31
wrote it where we all we come to a crime scene and we're all cops each cop that
00:33:36
comes up goes get ready for this they go listen I've been around you walk up and they throw up when they see how bad the
00:33:43
scene the crime scene is like there's a car wreck and then the next guy comes up and goes Captain he got
00:33:56
and it's funnier because it's either too much or it's not enough yeah that makes it even funnier yeah we
00:34:04
were like give it full blast on air go crazy anything that looks like a mistake and then people start to break because
00:34:10
it's a mistake oh my gosh so wait that's a yeah that's another thing that I want to say you well I mean I know I had this
00:34:17
giant break in the Disney World Debbie Downer thing but I thought of when I knew I was coming on here because I like
00:34:23
of course before you're on the show you love seeing people break like when you're just watching as a viewer and
00:34:29
then when you're on like you really try not to break I mean I really would try not to but I remember both of you guys
00:34:36
like the Chris Farley the van down by the river oh yeah oh my gosh that was
00:34:42
one of the early breaks because so fun we were still not supposed to and so honestly worried about getting fired and
00:34:49
then because you know after you do a decent sketch just for people at home Lauren doesn't throw the headphones down
00:34:54
and the amster light and run out and hug you so you did it Gap girls is a smash
00:35:00
and Spins me around while I go to commercial so uh he just you walk by and
00:35:05
and he might not or you know a thumbs up yeah nice
00:35:11
you'll get them next time but it wasn't terrible B plus which is good I love
00:35:16
your impressions terrible so when when uh that was van
00:35:22
down by the river one was a fun one uh to break up in but really
00:35:27
I don't know if I did it even ever after that and uh I think Jimmy has the most on his resume of crackups yeah no you
00:35:36
you weren't like a frequent breaker I just remembered that one as being because I mean if I were there I'd be
00:35:42
laughing too it was just so funny Christina Applegate yes I think so
00:35:47
um yeah and then and then Dana I was thinking about um
00:35:55
yes and the dog ripping the thing up yes that was that was the animal was more
00:36:01
smiling but everyone else was going banana it was so fun the sketch was killing so hard and we've told this
00:36:08
story before but they put more of the dog you know the baby Gerber's meat food on the prosthetic and they didn't feed
00:36:15
the dog for dinner because Rob Schneider said how do we how do we get him to really go crazy on air well maybe we'll
00:36:21
do a light dinner and we'll put more on the thing so the dog went crazy for it but the sketch was going so well and I
00:36:28
loved it so much that I decided I really wanted to keep the thing on so I put my hand on my temple and I was kind of
00:36:35
smiling but the crowd was going crazy because I was just riding the wave of an animal an innocent animal trying to get
00:36:41
food you can't top that right in comedy so but yeah that was uh a lucky one did
00:36:47
you have one of those uh something where someone else wrote it and you're riding this Great Wave that's just uh it's just
00:36:54
great when someone else comes up with it for you oh my gosh well um something that someone else came up with was
00:37:01
um this writer Scott wanio wrote back when um Angelina Jolie and her brother
00:37:06
had this moment where they they kissed or something so then he wrote this character that was their love child and
00:37:13
so I came out with this like bald head with an arm coming out of my head and like drooling and I mean it was like an
00:37:20
Apache Baldwin it was like it was a total look and he named the character he Name the character like turple clicks
00:37:27
like it didn't even have any vowels in it so anyway I got to and there was drool involved so I got to come on as
00:37:33
that and then that character recurred in all sorts of like American Idol contests
00:37:38
oh yeah yeah and that was created by Scott wanio not at all by me so yeah that always always really fun when you
00:37:44
get handed and it's great when it's funny with the sound off just that just the image when you come out they're
00:37:50
already laughing it's great yeah yeah you get that connection yeah wow
00:37:57
[Music] so Debbie Downer how many times did you do that I know people talk about oh my
00:38:04
gosh I don't know maybe five or something but like nothing topped that first one where we were laughing which
00:38:11
was the first one it was Disney World oh yeah and um we started laughing I still
00:38:16
don't even really know why we started laughing but then because I knew that camera was coming in so close it was
00:38:23
like the ultimate Church laugh and you can see my face like twitching like you literally see my lip going because I'm
00:38:30
like trying so hard well everyone in it is just sort of staring down going they don't even connect eyes with you
00:38:36
irresistible you want they start to go how do you knock I mean with Jimmy Fallon and the hot tub one with you and
00:38:42
will I mean he really just went he was just he couldn't function and at first I thought he was acting or doing something
00:38:49
and he was just trying to stop his body from breaking he was sort of hitting his chest when he was in the hot tub so
00:38:55
Jimmy was yeah did you I actually was the culprit like I think
00:39:03
because I flubbed you said something about China I said I was like North Korea yeah North Korea that was like the
00:39:09
media is so sensitive there and then I was like so secretive yeah and that was
00:39:14
the problem you know what you guys might sort of feel this like I sort of had a good feeling but you know sometimes you
00:39:19
write a sketch and you're like oh they'd be good and then it totally tanks right or whatever yeah I sort of was
00:39:27
like okay this could work probably I think but I'm not sure and then and then like I was just so nervous about it
00:39:34
working that then when I flubbed it I don't know it was like nervous laughter or something were you flubbing and then you recover and say the right one and
00:39:41
then everyone's like uh oh it's already the train went off the track a little bit Yeah and then it's already funny and then they go
00:39:57
yeah and then I saw Thanksgiving when we at the very end you're like look at the wrong camera the turkey moves away and
00:40:04
you're like is it over and then yeah it's just [ __ ] hilarious and then the speaking of like asking you shall
00:40:10
receive like we're like and then the turkey gets up and walks off the table and then there's the puppet guy making
00:40:15
the turkey that Springs up and like runs off the table so yeah which is funny too you don't see it coming you know I guess
00:40:22
it's just us turkey yeah yeah I used to do it if somebody's done this but you should do like if a trumpet was my life
00:40:29
it'd be like you know I don't know if that's like from Carol Burnett or something but a
00:40:36
smash cut of somebody like Debbie Downer with those sounds is like did that kill a dress the first time they did that it
00:40:43
just it you can't not laugh I mean yeah no that it did go well yeah but I mean
00:40:49
read through um but then read through so so I wrote those with Paula Pell and when we're trying to write it we first
00:40:55
put her like just in an office or something and then we were like this isn't really working like wait we need to have her somewhere that's like really
00:41:01
fun and everyone's trying to have fun so we put her at Disney and then we kept making those trumpet sounds like just to
00:41:07
each other the trombone and then I think Paul was like What if we put these in the script like and so then people were
00:41:14
laughing really hard at those who did it read through did you go or did you bring a trumpet I think we had the real
00:41:20
trombone somehow we had the real sounds there so in the sketch do you have real music
00:41:27
playing uh like it's a real guy from the band
00:41:33
God I don't know I recorded them for us and then they had
00:41:38
all these like buttons one long one yeah yeah because sometimes it it might be
00:41:45
too hard to coordinate to have them do it perfectly I think it was they had their little buttons to press yeah
00:41:50
because it's really funny first of all you everyone's having fun and sort of saying corny dialogue about Disney World
00:41:55
like Lindsay Lohan's like I can't wait konnichiwa right right and then you immediately take the legs out and then
00:42:02
that's funny and then they push in on you you make a funny face and then they play a funny noise it's just a combo but
00:42:10
it was definitely like diminishing for sure it's because like people got the joke and like you know the later ones
00:42:16
are like okay they're fine but I do think like diminishing the concept but
00:42:21
the concept of it took off you know maybe more that like that Disney World one was you know the thing I get
00:42:27
probably recognized most before but it's more about the concept oh yeah like people coming up to me and saying that's
00:42:33
my mom that's my boss whatever oh yeah then the actual one escalation
00:42:41
next to Debbie Downer I didn't see it yeah we did actually Steve Carell we did and he was also he I think he was like
00:42:48
Bob bummer oh oh God you know we did like the mirror so that would escalate it but yeah it's the thing that but it's
00:42:54
sort of like people then they know what's gonna happen but I know well the truth is
00:43:00
church lady she's gonna say well isn't that special at some point special I
00:43:05
know well whatever and we did the best we could uh but I'm I'm just the age she
00:43:10
is right now I'm Church ladies age I was playing her at 31 but now do the math
00:43:16
kids she was ageless Rachel we did buy more people knew me from babai for
00:43:21
probably years and it was we did it twice you know oh no they decide and the second one wasn't even any good it just
00:43:28
the only one remembers is the first one yeah and then it was too hard and you wanted to go back to the well of
00:43:35
course you know but we did the end of the year I went on a flight the next day in America and they were all going
00:43:40
bye-bye but I'm like wow that fast and then I tell you for 10 straight years
00:43:45
there was not a flight where they did someone didn't say it to me yeah and and then they said my friend's wife is a
00:43:51
flight attendant and they play that at American in their Flight Training to say this is what our images and we have to
00:43:58
break this image do not act like this you're not allowed to say bye-bye anymore you have to say thank you you
00:44:04
have to say Konnichiwa or whatever um you have to say thanks for coming you cannot say that's hilarious that's uh
00:44:11
that's a that's a feat to land a a generational catchphrase with only two
00:44:16
appearances yeah David second one didn't even count pretty impressive why didn't the second one count did you go but why
00:44:22
no and it was with Steve Martin the master of all uh hilarity but yeah we
00:44:28
didn't service him that well we didn't write it's just the whole thing just it we did it it went away for the summer
00:44:34
and it had maybe higher expectations we came back on the first show and did it and it was really wow
00:44:45
when you meet all these movie stars and athletes and stuff over your tenure uh
00:44:51
did you get to score with one of them or I mean it's kind of a cool weird part of what you because they'll say William
00:44:57
Shatner's down there go say hello or Charlton Heston would like to or you know or Wayne would you go down to the
00:45:03
office this is on a Monday you know it's a it's a trip did you have just did you have connection with some of them or who
00:45:10
stood out for oh my gosh I was okay well I was always so shy around all the hosts like you know sometimes they'd have
00:45:16
those host dinners yeah yeah you know like I was such a Nells like I would just talk to the people I knew and I
00:45:23
like and then I realized afterwards like oh I was probably supposed to be like talking to the host to make them more
00:45:29
comfortable like I said I was shy in the beginning but like I was always like shy around
00:45:35
Lauren and shy around the house like and then like when we'd be standing there you know you're standing there rehearsing the scene and like sometimes
00:45:41
you just be like sitting there like waiting for them and like I would see like Amy Poehler and Jimmy Fallon were
00:45:48
so good at just like chit chatting with the hosts and famous people anyways they were just so good at it but it was
00:45:55
real like yeah you know that's just like their skill you know and I would just be like like looking around and then I'd be
00:46:02
like so do you live in New York or L.A like that was my only that's my only that was your
00:46:08
go-toe I got a little better at it but I I mean
00:46:14
but the people that I would be really excited about were like you said like Steve Martin or the people that I grew
00:46:20
up watching were you a little star struck when you first saw Steve Martin you know oh totally I was so but I mean
00:46:26
by then I was a little bit more Adept at having conversation with them but um
00:46:32
yeah like Steve Steve Martin and um I don't know like I can't really think of someone that I was like you know I have
00:46:38
their number now I mean like that I I really bonded with Tom Hanks by the way just think of all the people that talk
00:46:45
the host or date the host you think it even crossed your mind to go hey can I hey let me just grab your number and
00:46:51
we're really getting along in this one schedule yeah maybe that happens every host
00:46:58
number John loves I go how do you do that I just ask I have their number you know I do I would never he had every one
00:47:05
number is just very friendly that way I was more like you but were you ever did you ever was did a really handsome man
00:47:12
come on the show and you're a little oh my gosh I mean I'm sure like a lot of handsome men because Victoria Jackson
00:47:18
was always in love with Alec Baldwin whenever he came oh my gosh
00:47:23
um I mean I'm sure there were it was like so long ago but then sometimes like
00:47:28
someone that seemed really handsome then you'd find out they were kind of like a dum-dum or something and then that was
00:47:34
just that was that was a good lesson that happens to me you know uh dum dum did David host while you were there I
00:47:40
don't understand you hosted the second because I looked
00:47:49
this up because I knew you would host it I thought of my first year but it was my second year but I don't remember if we I didn't I remember meeting you and I
00:47:56
think as well yeah Will did w and I did senior on a sketch and he said
00:48:04
he said 2 30. that's I said yeah I still have lower back pain no but Rachel that's why I remember doing a movie
00:48:09
called Dickie Roberts okay I do and I just I just re-watched the beginning of
00:48:15
it before this refresh my memory from 1990. I loved Rachel yes and then I
00:48:24
got hit in the head with the elevator yes and I had a big bump on my head consistent for Rob Reiner yes yeah Rob
00:48:30
Reiner's secretary but I think because you and Sandler and Chris Rock like I I
00:48:36
got to hang out with you guys during I mean I did the movie with those two and Sandler's just like such a mensch to me
00:48:42
because he always brings me back in his movies that you guys are always you know like you meet the generation ahead of
00:48:48
you and you don't know you know how it's gonna be but you guys are so nice and welcoming and
00:48:54
um well we also it's like a little comedy community it's a family the Adam Sandler yeah you
00:49:01
will always make a scene better that's all you need need to know if you go throw her in there and it's pretty good
00:49:07
and if she says yes it will be better so show whatever she is I know you have that reputation of just when people
00:49:13
mention you oh she's just so funny I mean they say it without but you're consistently don't you think David was
00:49:19
with Rachel oh God she's just funny oh my gosh I mean she's got a good look it's just funny oh I have to tell you
00:49:25
something first of all just a side note you worked at Ruby Tuesday no you were a spokes in Furby Tuesday I did yes and I
00:49:31
got carted at Chili's you I got carded at Chili's day and I told you about it
00:49:36
recently a month ago that's it that's a good thing to get carded at your time on
00:49:42
the planet but I managed to see something interesting in Rachel's bio and then I found a story about me out of
00:49:49
it oh good I think we both have in common yeah because Ruby Tuesday and Chili's are sort of the same they are
00:49:55
the same elk yes but we have to I have a serious question for you serious
00:50:00
question okay okay this is the serious time of the book we just asked Bobby Moynihan if you're read through a I have
00:50:08
a new one Twist on This Dana okay do you remember where you sat and do you remember where everyone sat from the
00:50:13
host going sideways whoa wow well I definitely I remember where I
00:50:19
sat okay like if you're at the doors and you're walking you're looking straight
00:50:24
in at the windows Lauren is back right okay so I was to the right oh and I was like oh the right but I was like far
00:50:32
from the from where Lauren was like okay I never assumed that seat where the senior lady sits next to the host
00:50:40
do you know that that was a thing did you know this so there's a system
00:50:45
where like the woman that's been there I I could be wrong with this okay so there's Lauren yeah and then like it
00:50:51
would be like Molly or Maya or whoever but I was never there but with you know with good reason
00:50:58
because see what I said about the host dinner like I wasn't the person they knew you were right I was fine I was
00:51:04
fine
00:51:26
and I'm like not socially but but I will admit that next to really famous people
00:51:31
I'm not good at making conversation so you know I accept that but anyway I was
00:51:36
down your step and we had a lot of good times actually Stephen read through is fun if you're with somebody you'd like over there and you're writing notes or
00:51:43
something it was really fun with Seth um that's mainly what I remember I don't really remember and I think I was
00:51:48
bipolar too bipolar by Amy polar yeah as well yeah so we had someone on our
00:51:53
podcast who's bipolar a couple weeks ago really yeah comedian I'm sure there could be many you have to listen to all
00:52:00
90 to find out though oh man we have a whole bipolar series okay oh one time
00:52:05
wait here's a kind of a funny thing about the read through tables so one time when Johnny Knoxville was hosting
00:52:11
um my I would I twisted to like get my coat or something during break and
00:52:17
somehow I like sprung to my back and so I don't even know what happened but I
00:52:22
couldn't I couldn't move until then I had to like fly on the floor this is all
00:52:27
during the break you know when people are going up and so I'm like lying down on the floor like half under the table literally could not move and so then
00:52:35
everyone comes back and like you know they've called for this episode of NBC Medic or something and um they had to
00:52:42
continue the read through um while I was under the table there like frozen until the end of the thing
00:52:48
and um wow yeah I thought you said Johnny came to your restaurant well he tried they were like do you have any
00:52:55
pain exactly you would think he did because of his jacket but he didn't have any and so anyway but it was kind of
00:53:01
funny because I mean Dana you could do the Lauren voice but it was like I'd be reading my things and there's like is
00:53:06
Rachel still down there you know but um
00:53:15
is predisposed to be injured you reach for a napkin and suddenly you're on the floor that's that's what it was that's
00:53:22
what it makes it happen to me once with a parking brake did it yeah it just like went out yeah yeah but I mean I wasn't
00:53:27
like old then I was I wasn't either I was really young when it happened that was my that was my strange read through
00:53:33
uh what I don't know highlight low light
00:53:40
[Music] David has some fainting spells we've heard you know uh someone threw a glass
00:53:47
of water at Lauren's face once [ __ ] you man no I'm kidding that's a joke that
00:53:52
would have been a good story though I mean so no one has been under the table in that situation no you're the
00:53:59
only one so far I've heard about under the table so that's just me on that that's a read through story
00:54:05
um all right by the way I like when he uh in the uh Roger and Virginia's oh yes
00:54:11
in the hot tub they say uh she she has the uh oh when he has sex with Maya he
00:54:17
says she has she just lies there uh I think it's walking says Maya just lies
00:54:24
there like like uh King Tutankhamun in his tomb and uh but makes the facial
00:54:31
expressions of Jim Carrey and Ace Venture like I don't even remember that yeah
00:54:37
Maya was like you're all talking about uh screwing and Maya is just sitting there going why are we talking about
00:54:42
this she was like mortified yeah yeah oh my gosh whatsoever I remember we we made we made
00:54:48
up a sex act called shinshi shinshi uh that's all I remember from that I don't
00:54:54
know I think it had somebody with an ear you can say anything it's funny right just
00:55:00
exactly pausing and the craziest talk ever yeah anything else for Rachel because she's
00:55:07
so sweet to come on here well I think you're an all-time great everybody knows you and loves you and you're you're very
00:55:14
very busy you did the wine country with all your band mates yeah
00:55:20
these Superstar SNL cast members 30 Rock you play record you you do a thing where
00:55:26
you recur as like just different things I looked at the Reel today there's like a two minute blast of all your
00:55:32
characters from 30 years the Catwoman her whole attitude oh yeah
00:55:38
that was based on the SNL cat lady Wrangler did you just call Tina and say should I do this this is a funny weird
00:55:45
one can you throw it in the show somewhere or does Tina say what if you came in is this is just kind of back and forth well for that one like she know
00:55:51
knows me so well she's like how do you do Liz Taylor in this I'm gonna do the cat like because she's seeing my little yeah whatever I don't know she knows my
00:55:58
that's sweet though yeah oh yeah yeah yeah and then you go score so a mousy
00:56:03
woman that doesn't want to do anything wrong is your favorite kind of attitude just kind of a good go-to for me yeah
00:56:09
and what did you do one of those SNL it would describe that way I don't know just sort of insecure and so
00:56:15
I don't know but I just like being that thing well Rachel I say Dana that
00:56:22
uh Deb Downer Deborah Downer Disneyland is probably a woodfall and my maybe top
00:56:29
ten sketches it's crazy thank you I can't think of ones that really beat the
00:56:35
[ __ ] out of it you know I'm like if it's not it's way way up there in my uh you know there's there's a there's a
00:56:42
a lot of like just can't get that's catch just was a 10. you know what I
00:56:47
mean it just worked and there's like a massive headphone Harry or bye-bye you
00:56:52
know some are just they just work and they pop and Lindsay the one being innocent and cute in it oh also the
00:56:58
[ __ ] the Hogwarts one oh yes are huge and you guys like yes what did you do
00:57:05
this summer's day I don't know and you're like oh you're like your boobs are so big and that was Harry Potter someone else wrote that remember who
00:57:13
maybe it was set I think so was Seth in it who was in it with you uh he might
00:57:18
have been in it yeah he was because everyone's so perplexed Dana that Lindsay Lohan comes back and her boobs
00:57:24
are so huge and everyone's like they can't talk about anything else [Music]
00:57:29
I forgot that one is so good okay it's funny anyway that's it thank you uh uh
00:57:36
now but thank you David we didn't interrupt as much as we normally do you
00:57:42
guys I just interrupted oh you guys didn't I felt like I was yammering on no we want the guests to hear your story no
00:57:48
we want that no but I like your stories though well um it really like I mean I don't want to
00:57:53
get so cornball but I just admire you guys so much like it's it I'm like freaked out talking to you guys like I
00:57:59
would be I'm a dial tone talking to you guys yeah you you up there for me that's
00:58:04
so so nice but I I will pass it back at you and you must run into fans at the
00:58:10
airport or wherever you are or at a restaurant and they will fan out on you right of course and it is surreal isn't
00:58:17
it because they saw you on television doing what they want to do or just enjoying you and it's the whole thing is
00:58:22
surreal I can't I remember George Bush Senior said to me I can't believe I was President it was surreal to him well
00:58:30
that's not a good thing I can't even remember anything about it what but it's the same anyway Saturday Night
00:58:37
Live it's like a fever dream that being I was on that and and it happened then you go back and it's a little it's a
00:58:45
little Melancholy walking down that Hall and seeing a picture of your younger self in a sketch with Amy or whatever
00:58:50
right yeah yeah yeah but I mean you do have those bonds with those people that's the that's you all in it together
00:58:57
you know and that's the emotional underpinning of this podcast overall is that it's a seminal emotional experience
00:59:04
it's a reality show in a way yeah so when we hear it it's so true it's all common experiences and everyone has a
00:59:10
Different Twist on it yeah and I was thinking when I was coming on like why couldn't I sleep last night I
00:59:17
was like SNL has like a lot of emotions attached you know like yes a lot of them are super positive and then a lot of
00:59:22
them are like oh I was so unconfident that like it's just all of life's emotions are wrapped up in US yeah but
00:59:28
not as much not as much negative just anxiety and like just bumps of like
00:59:34
Showbiz it's just the way it is exactly yeah the bumps of Showbiz right but like
00:59:40
you said I mean you have that group that you're with and it's like no one else knows what that was like you know in in
00:59:46
the best way yeah when you're starting a sketch it when the band's playing is about to start you see Jimmy Jimmy
00:59:51
Fallon in his outfit or you see Will Ferrell with a beard on or whatever it's sort of okay we're just having fun here
00:59:58
you know it does help having your peers with you in it you know totally yeah yeah the dream it is the dream you're a
01:00:06
