Sabrina Carpenter (10.18.2025)

 Kelsey & Ma…AW FUCKING CHRIST!!! Jesus!!!

• Goddammit…FUCK!!! Should’ve figured they’d do THIS again.

• Sorry to get this review started off on the wrong foot. If you’re a fan of Sabrina Carpenters’ who somehow found this blog for the first time and are reading this right now, you’re probably unaware of my well established distaste for Domingo, so please bear with me here.

• Well, Sabrinas’ lines about nursing school were decently funny.

• I guess Kelsey has two new friends to…replace two of her old ones?

• Ok, I can’t quite recognize whatever song this is parodying…the intentionally off key singing doesn’t help…is it something from “Life Of A Showgirl”?

• I feel like I need to attend a self worth seminar after sitting through this and it’s not even over yet.

• Ok, this obvious “Abracadabra” parody is all right.

• Hey, there he fucking is. Finally…

• Ok, is Marcello singing a parody of “Beautiful Things”? I’m so lost at this point.

• All right, so we got the most obvious fucking thing ever out of the way. Go to bed, kids. D+

Monologue 

• Sabrina handled the monologue about as confidently as I expected her to.

• I liked the pull out of her “Mans’ Best Friend” album cover with Bowen and Marty.

• I wasn’t too crazy about the audience interactions. The shot of the stage hand taking her microphone as she walked back on to stage sadly may have been the most genuine laugh I got out of this so far.

• Kenans’ walk on was decent. I guess Sabrina didn’t want to step TOO far outside of her comfort zone at the start of the show.

• Ok, maybe I’m still a little bit put off by that cold open, but it’s SNL so who knows what else is in store? Let’s go into the rest of the show with an open mind and give it a fair chance. C-

Snack Homiez

• Ok, I CAN’T be the only one getting major Kyle Mooney vibes from Chloes’ performance in this.

• “Unc” is a new slang term, I guess. Great.

• I don’t HATE the way they used Jane in this.

• This is just a collection of Gen Z/Alpha buzzword slang, isn’t it? 

• Immediately, I’m getting strong flashbacks to “Gen Z Hospital” from this (which when you consider who hosted THAT episode is…NOT a compliment).

• Ok, I liked that line about having avocados having “a wooden ball in the center”

• You’re not the only one getting lost, Sabrina.

• Ok, this might be my favorite usage of JAJs Trump by default (as telegraphed as it felt and despite the fact that they did this same basic joke in the last TikTok compilation from last season's Michael Keaton/Billie Eillish episode).

• I did like the JAJ/Trump line where he just straight up asked the boys if he was getting into heaven.

• Yeah, this sketch was certainly “not” fire. D+

Plans

• Ok, I automatically like this just for something NOT aimed solely at Gen Z/Alpha.

• I also liked the heavily modern horror stylized visual takes on uncomfortable mundane, draining social interactions. Even though this feels like the writers went down some beaten path to get here, this was well done.

• Pairing Ben Marshall and Sabrina Carpenter is…quite the height disparity but it’s appropriate that he’s in this since the style and pacing seem reminiscent of a Please Don’t Destroy short while still closely resembling a modern horror movie trailer. B-

ShopTV

• Well, given how Sabrina and the writers just demonstrated in the monologue just how unafraid they were to play on Sabrinas’ “horny” image, I guess I should’ve expected one of these.

• JAJ showing off his Jesus head trick or treat bucket was pretty funny. Wasn’t expecting to get big Kyle Mooney vibes from two nearly back to back live sketches in one episode, but here we are.

• I do like how they used Ashley in this (even if it kind of hangs a lampshade on the idea of her being used on the show to fill the “skilled actress” void left by Heidi in the cast now). Mikey in particular had a lot of great lines and his timing was impeccable here.

• I’m glad that they even knew how to hit just the right beats with the two callers after the “deluxe fur lining” was revealed so that Mikey, um, “wearing” the pillow felt like just the right beat to end this on.

• Sabrina performed this well and I do like the slight variation that this is a blatant vagina based product. I would genuinely love to be a fly on the wall when the writers discussed this prop with the censors.

• Michael O’Donoghue must have been looking up and smiling at this sketch (get it? Anyone else here aware of HIS censor battles to get “At Home With The Psychos” sketch? iykyk).

• As hot and cold as I’ve run on these “Shop TV” sketches, this one is definitely my personal favorite. C+

GirlBoss Seminar

• So, this must be the sketch that was shown in that brief dress preview that was shown during the football game that made this show start 12 minutes late.

• Was…Sabrinas’ character named…”Queen Leesha”?

• I wanted to like this sketch more from the moment Jeremy and Tommy started swinging around that dummy of “Queen Leesha” and threw her out a window…but, I feel like it didn’t reach its full potential.

• Some of the beats with Sabrinas’ strings of gibberish and Sarah as the audience surrogate should’ve been cut just to tighten up this sketch because they didn’t quite go anywhere.

• I’ve heard Andrew Dick say on That Week In SNL that he enjoys gibberish and malapropism laden sketches like this, but somehow I doubt he will ever see it. Knowing him, I’m guessing he probably noped out of this episode by now.

• It’s not that great a sign for this sketch that the second big technical blooper was the biggest laugh I got out of it (not the brief mic outage at the beginning but the brief moment with Kenan having to throw the Jeremy dummy out the window because whoever threw it missed).

• I did get a kick out of Jeremy coming back into the scene with a big shard of glass embedded into his skull, though. That was my biggest laugh of this sketch. C+

Middle School

• So, this must be the pretape Bowen filmed this week before high tailing it to LA to accept that award?

• Gee, I better word my review of this sketch carefully. I don’t want any more of my reviews to get caught behind a fucking “sensitive content warning” without any explanation.

• This was a good use of this episodes’ seemingly unavoidable Sabrina/Bowen pairing and the rest of the cast playing middle schoolers (Jeremy/Jane, Veronika/Ben, Marcello/Chloe/Kam) performed this well.

• The scenes with Ashley and Kenan as the chaperones really made this for me.

• Strangely, the song sounded like something that would've been on the pop charts back when I was starting HIGH school rather than middle school (which I’m thankful for as it makes me feel less old than the first third of this episode did). C+

Weekend Update w/Jost & Che

• Josts’ Best Jokes: Santos/aggravated identity theft, Trump's enemies list, Naked Portland bike ride, Argentina, Cuomo/Mamdani debate, Shortened fall season, 

• Che’s Best Jokes: Trump/Zelenskyy/nobel peace prize, Jost family chat (only for the reaction “what did I do to you?”), Venezuelan boat, Prince Andrew, Pig liver transplant

• I figured we’d see Marcellos’ “movie guy” in this one since this was expected to be a Marcello heavy episode (although those who tuned in solely to see Domingo should probably be in bed by this point).

• Yeah, “Da Movie Guy” is usually a pretty stupid and empty character but at least there’s something in there that loops it back around to being stupidly funny like the “Saw”, “Stewie” and “Alien” lines.

• I’m glad they gave Tommy Brennan his own showcase and I genuinely enjoyed his standup material. I especially liked his outlining of his unique midwestern upbringing and his “WWI locket/pre-integrated basketball star” jokes. He even added something to the masturbation material to make it feel lively and fresh. B-

Washer & Dryer

• Ok, Dismukes and Ashley are a quietly toxic couple. I like this so far.

• Figured we’d see Sabrina sing in this. I never guessed they’d use Veronika this way but I guess between this and her role as one of three “Drabble Sisters” in last weeks’ “Experienced Attorneys” I guess they might be making old timey roles part of her niche?

• I liked that they did different song styles for each setting and the details of each song ending with various reasons NOT to get these. I am a bit surprised that Veronikas’ dryer costume coming apart prematurely didn't get a bigger reaction.

• I’d definitely like them to showcase Veronikas’ singing more. She must be a powerful vocalist if she can hold her own next to Sabrina Carpenter.

• I also liked the other odd details that Andrew threw in there about eating spaghetti on his bicycle and handing Kenan a small bag of money for both the washer and dryer. B-

Surprise

• Jesus Christ, Ashley Padilla sure reacted to her massive farts like she was in pain. I sure hope she didn’t get a hernia from all the heavy lifting she had to do to singlehandedly make this sketch watchable.

• Seriously, though…she did really elevate this sketch (especially during the “CSO” rant where she finds out she earns the least and is the least promoted out of all of her coworkers). It was almost enough to make you forget that this was a sketch built around farts/fart lighting with an unrelated commercial tag/button on the end.

• Gee, I can't wait for the ITYSL/Tim Robinson stans to make the discourse surrounding this episode/sketch completely insufferable!

• By the way, the official SNL YouTube channel appears to have uploaded the dress rehearsal version of this sketch that has many noticeable differences from the live air version. 

• …and since Jon Schneider has already compared Ashley to Bill Hader on his SNN Hot Take show, I’d like to invite you all to listen to mine and Deej Barens NEW podcast “We Pine For Padilla” making its debut on January 2nd, 2045. C+

• (ha ha, just kidding Deej…but please feel free to check out our current podcast We Heart Hader)

Sabrina Carpenter Performs “Nobody’s Son”

• Did…she just drop not one but TWO live f-bombs on air? I don’t really have anything to say about her performance of “Manchild” but I had to comment on the second song here.

Social Experiment

• This must be the Martin Herlihy solo short that got cut from last weeks’ dress rehearsal.

• From the interaction between Martin and Jane followed by him and his crew of Frankensteins breaking into Veronika's apartment (after they broke up), I could tell this was automatically going to be the funniest segment of the whole night.

• I do like Martin Herlihy working solo was able to put out a more refined and better distilled version of the PDD brand/style of comedy that feels different from their previous output and just works better.

• I liked the additional detail of the elderly female Frankenstein dying and the song at the end. I also liked Kams’ part though I feel like it went on a beat or two too long.

• This reminded me a lot of Beck and Kyles “Mr. Riot Films” from season 40 where they played YouTubers conducting their own “social experiments”.

• Boy, I sure am glad Nathan Fielder doesn’t seem to have the same type of online fanbase Tim Robinson has! A-

Ranking The 51st Season From Best To Worst

1. Amy Poehler/Role Model (10.11.2025)

2. Sabrina Carpenter (10.18.2025)

3. Bad Bunny/Doja Cat (10.04.2025)

Overall Thoughts 

• Well, I was a little more frustrated with this episode than I probably should have been but after giving myself some time to digest it, I’m a bit more OK with it.

• Whatever problems I had with this episode barely had anything to do with Sabrinas’ performances as a host. She seemed like she would be a solid host, and she was. I guess I was just hoping that the writing served her better. 

• I suppose that it was too much to hope that Sabrina would’ve been trusted to helm the show on her own merits a lot more instead of building this episode's naked pop pandering around her.

• Still, this episode did just barely avoid taking the premieres’ place as worst of the season so far by not having the same dire lack of energy that the Bad Bunny/Doja Cat episode did. That doesn’t make up for the fact that the episode reminded me of what bothered me so much about last years’ double duty episodes hosted by both Dua Lipa and Charli XCX (and I’m sure I'm not the only one who feels this way).

• Even with one cast member not in the building and not in any live sketches, cast airtime felt pretty even this week. Ben, Jeremy, Sarah and Kam took some small hits but JAJ, Mikey, Jane, Tommy, Kenan, Veronika and (especially) Ashley really stepped up.

Closing Thoughts 

• Well, that might have been what everyone except for me was expecting it to be.

• In two weeks, Miles Teller returns to host for his second time as host while Brandi Carlile returns for her fourth time as musical guest.

• The last time Miles hosted, he was decent but the episode itself was quite a divisive one that I probably disliked a lot less than most people (although looking back at that episode's rundown, I can see why people disliked it as much as they did).

• Still, HE wasn’t that episodes’ biggest problem and I’m hoping that will still be the case when he returns. I probably shouldn’t be confident that the writing of that episode will back that up but at least the writing of this season is feeling fresher and taking more chances than three years ago (last weeks’ episode may be proof of that) so here’s hoping SNL can find its way back on track next month.

• Before that episode airs, I will be posting a full length review of the SNL season 32 finale with Zach Braff and Maroon 5 on this blog. That one will actually be posted on Friday October 24th as me and Deej will also be covering that episode on the next We Heart Hader podcast coming out the same day. Hope to see you then!

Amy Poehler/Role Model (10.11.1975)

 Pam Bondi Hearing

• Hey, another “off the beaten path” political cold open (I mean, that describes any modern SNL cold open that doesn’t feature James Austin Johnson as Donald Trump as JAJ but still).

• Speaking of, I see JAJ is playing Senator Chuck Grassley tonight and the two new white guys are getting some airtime right up top. I did like Jeremy Culhanes’ “Jeff-rey Ep-stein” chant as Senator Whitehouse. Boy, Dismukes as Senator Kennedy from Louisiana looks like it will be a fun impression. 

• Among the miscues, I see Ashley Padilla is playing Amy Klobuchar…but, wait…this is supposed to be a Pam Bondi sketch and didn’t Ashley play Pam Bondi in last seasons’ “White Potus” or was that some weird random color blob? Wait, does this mean we’re getting…HEY!!! Amy as Pam Bondi! (or is this just Leslie Knope if she became a “bad girl”?)

• Well, it was smart of the show to have Amy helm this cold open since over the past several years she has proven herself adept at producing light political comedy that functions as comfort food for liberal wine moms. 

• She’s trying her damndest to put this over. I especially liked her Blumenthal/Durbin/Klobuchar roasts and her line about “who fell asleep in the middle of a sentence” but…something about this makes it feel like the energy is off. Maybe the audience isn’t into it because it isn’t quite what they were expecting? Maybe they just wanted to get past the current politics and get into the instant nostalgia?

• Kristi Noem? Wait, Heidi played her and she’s gone now. Who’s going to…wait, I recognize THAT voice more than that face at the moment. Is that…Tina under those prosthetics? Tina Fey impersonating a hardass right wing backwoods governor known for shooting animals with a goofy ass accent that makes her sound like a member of “Da Yoopers”? That’s totally new.

• I think, bare minimum, cameo-wise people were just expecting some combination of Tina, Rachel and Maya (even if she seems completely burnt out on the show and another Bronx Beat so soon after the 50th might seem like overkill). Those women have always been a package deal on SNL whether they were in the cast, hosting or just making a plethora of cameos during the height of the Wiig era. 

• In fact, I’d say Tina had the best material in this with her ICE ad copy and it’s still fine by me if she wants to do some political humor on the show sometimes. Still, this grew on me and struck the right balance between how to work Tina well into political sketches and what type of political commentary works best on Update from her. B-

Monologue 

• This monologue seemed a little “all over the place” but the things I appreciated the most about it were Amy giving this casts’ newbies the same treatment she gave Taran, Jay, Vanessa and Paul fifteen years ago as well as the very heartfelt acknowledgment of this very moment in time being SNL’s actual chronological 50th anniversary aimed at longtime fans and aspiring comedians watching (or just regular viewers watching considering her “tough times” comments). 

• I also liked the lines about no one having asked her to do full frontal yet, SNL “not caring after 50” (boy, does that ring true but thanks for being diplomatic about it, Amy) and the fact that Amy Poehler may be the first host in SNL history to only be plugging a podcast. B-

The Rudemans

• Umm, oookaaaaaayyyyy? I guess this is the Amy/Sarah/Ashley collaboration I’ve been wanting to see this week? Thanks? Especially for letting Sarah play yet another “generic grandma” role? Because that’s my favorite thing she does in this show, I guess?

• So, this has a theme song? Like a season 30 sketch? Ok, thanks for giving us a flashback to THAT "beloved" era? I mean, whaaaaat? (all right, I’m gonna drop this whole tired ass “meta” bit here because I DID like this sketch a bit more than I am letting on)

• I’d say Bowen, Amy, Sarah and Mikey (as “on the nose” as he felt in this) came off as more passive aggressively confused than rude or offended but their performances worked for me. Ashley and Andrew as a couple provided a fresh new dynamic that they played off of well.

• I like how each beat came in at a specific point that felt like it was designed to keep the sketch from getting too stale. You can see this in the phone call bit with Amy, Sarah' s fall (as telegraphed as that felt with Dismukes final lines) and Mikey suddenly smashing his beer bottle over Andrews’ head. There was enough going on here in the end to keep this from feeling like someone just played one of Fred Armisen and Vanessa Bayers “dictators two best friends from growing up” bits on super slow speed.

• One last thing I will add. I heard in dress rehearsal of this sketch Sarah fell so hard her prosthetics ripped open and fell off and God dammit I've never wanted to see dress footage posted online so bad in my life. B+

Non-Non Alcoholic Beer

• Hey, nice to see a Dismukes led pretape after barely being able to remember that such a solid player is still in the cast!

• I loved the very detailed, writerly nature of this sketch. I especially liked Kam telling Andrew his breath smells like gasoline, the jokes about the hyphen/skeleton key/double negative marketing and the breathalyzer chase. A-

Miss Lycus The Fast Psychic

• Hmm, a real early 2000s topic with a very 2010s/20s premise specific approach. I like it 

• This is definitely a sketch that’s appropriate to put up top after the monologue due to its sheer rapid fire pacing and energy. This sketch even applied gastrointestinal humor well with the colonoscopy gags.

• I liked Amys’ comments to Jeremy, Ashley, Ben and Veronica. JAJ had some great asides. The speed round with the appearances from Bowen and Marcello were the perfect beat to end this on from both a pacing and writing perspective. C+

The Hunting Wives Season Two

• Well, my favorite thing about this sketch by far is how they glammed up Sarah the most they’ve ever done since she’s joined the show. I mean, damn…

• The Aubrey Plaza cameo was a nice touch (for something else we were all half expecting to see in the back of our collective minds after her hosting stint from a couple of years back was one of the few things that brought Amy back to the show after a long absence from just…acting in general).

• Other than that, it’s not a great sign that the fake Steve Higgins voiced fake reviews were the sharpest jokes in this. This sketch was…well, visually dazzling (which is as much as I CAN say about it) but there wasn’t enough here to distract the viewer from the basic joke was “hey, look how horny this fake ass country Netflix show is that you probably actually haven’t heard of until now”. C-

Work Birth

• Uh oh, after the last time Molly Shannon hosted I get a bad feeling whenever I see a sketch where a former female alumni is very visibly pregnant. Thankfully, this just focuses on the actual pregnancy and not gas…or anything else apparently.

• I gave this a chance based on the idea that this might be something Amy could draw from some of her own experience on from her “leaving SNL and heading into doing Parks and Rec full time” era but…this just didn’t go anywhere.

• Since there were no real twists, I’ll just say a few more things. I’m glad they finally gave Ben Marshall the chance to play a “character” character that wasn’t just a background straight man that any cast member could’ve played. Mikey and Kenan didn’t add much for me (when you don’t think about how weird it feels that this is Kenans’ first appearance in the whole show since he and Jost are the only onscreen regulars that were there when she was in the cast).

• Thankfully, this was also one of the few sketches that knew where it needed to end before it officially went on too long. Kenans’ walk on was a good place to wrap it up and Bowen being birthed Will Ferrell/Ted Brogan style was as good an ending as any. C+

Weekend Update w/Jost & Che

• Gee, Che doesn’t LOOK that sick. Stage health?

• The only things I laughed at were Ches’ “MTG/Trump coin” joke and Josts’ RFK/Kristi Noem/Saw/German day gags. (boy, that Gen-z/trad sons joke hits close to ho….ah, nope…not going there right now)

• You know, as much as I like Sarah Sherman…I wish they would have her do more than just an inverse of Heidis’ “mom who’s only read about NYC from Facebook comments” but from the perspective of an actual New Yorker that took until it got very horny five minutes in to actually go anywhere.

• Dear GOD, I hope that clip of Jost strutting in the background of that old clip of Trump and Epstein at that party was made with a green screen and some good old fashioned video editing software and NOT Sora 2.

• Normally, I liked Grant and Alyssa and the energy Marcello usually brings to the show at this point but…for some reason I felt it necessary to tune halfway out to take some notes here (which is a better sign for this episode because last week I started doing this straight from the cold open).

• Weirdly, Jane had the better lines in this with her Sylvia Plath, “please calm down” and “jack o his lantern” jokes. Good to see her get this after being shut out last week.

• Ok, Amy has come out at the Update desk followed closely by Tina so we’re getting to the part most people really want to see (even if they don’t quite know why). Finally, we get a Joke Swap (which I liked probably a bit more than I should’ve) and suddenly the show feels like it’s somewhat back on track again. 

• Hey, A Seth cameo! Wasn’t expecting that…given how infrequently Seth has cameoed on the show since leaving. The lack of Jimmy Fallon here makes this feel a bit…unbalanced but at this point, I think we’ve all seen more than enough of Jimmy Fallon for one lifetime. 

• Anyway, I liked most of the jokes here enough that I don’t want to single out any ones in particular and the sheer energy from the previous eras’ Update anchors really carried this. C+

Experienced Lawyers

• Hey, we haven’t seen a JAJ/Dismukes pairing in a while. Let’s hope this is worthwhile.

• Ok, Amy as a jacked old man with disturbingly realistic arm hair (and painted nails for some reason) crashing through a break away wall is a strange enough burst of high energy to keep me intrigued. 

• I liked how they’re both giving Veronica a shot to play a “character” character instead of just a straight role and also excluding her from playing another old woman. Dracu-Law was delightfully dumb and felt more in Sarah' s wheelhouse.

• I wasn’t crazy with this winding down with the visual of Bowens’ face superimposed over a tree after we meet several clones of the JAJmukes characters and some turtles (I did like how you could clearly see the in studio monitor reflected in the turtle cage at one point) but Kenans’ line as Zeus and the closing jingle made up for that (and made up for his weird absence from this episode, too).

• The only real flaw is how all the lawyer introductions just wash out the client testimonials but I don’t want to split hairs here. B+

Perimenopause

• Amy is a goth/scene/punk/emo mom whose kids have to confront HER about her attitude and behavior. Wow, THERE’S a switch! 

• Again, this was another concept that only Amy Poehler could put over for me. Still, I liked the visual of Kam, Jane and Ben as goth kids. Chloe, JAJ and Jeremy played well off Amy, too (especially the “superintendent” line and his stumbling through the mosh pit to unplug the boombox).

• I also liked Amys’ “F my life” speech and the heavily infected tattoo reveal at the end (as well as how Amy and JAJ reacted to the camera panning away from them as the sketch ended). B-

Composers Symposium

• So…this sketch explores the rather common theme of “hey, why aren’t there any more early 90s Fresh Prince style expository rap theme songs to TV shows that explain the entire premise to you anymore?” and then spent the whole sketch insisting upon itself so hard it made you question why Mikey Day wasn’t in this?

• Ok, I will admit that Amy Poehler is literally the only comedic performer that would put this over for me (yet another sketch that carries this theme). Other than that, it does have very small but noticeable traces of tropes that remind loyal SNL viewers of what they haven’t liked about Bowen centric sketches since 2022 (or just sketches where people react to questionable songs since 2018).

• Bowen threatening to whip Jane's character with a belt felt very “Garrett From Hinge” to me. Kenans’ character didn’t add much either. C-

2. Amy Poehler/Role Model (10.11.2025)

3. Amy Poehler/Katy Perry (09.25.2010)

Overall Thoughts 

• Well, it’s certainly nice to have had a seasoned comedy professional that got her big break on this very show to help right the course of this season. Granted, last week set an incredibly low bar to clear, but a lot of the pacing problems were non-existent.

• There wasn’t a lot to distract from the current shows’ ongoing problems but Amy’s performances and sheer commitment here reminded us of why she was considered to be such a beloved cast member during such a troubled era of the show. I’m sure the current cast benefitted a lot from her presence this week.

• Sure, we got to see a lot more of Kam, Jane, Ben, Tommy, Jeremy and Veronica than we did last week but it will still be quite a while before we get a real bead on this season's newbies to be able to figure out who they are and what they bring to the show. Still, it’s nice that Amy could give them a voice this week. 

• Nice to see lots of Sarah and JAJ this week (although when he’s not playing 47 he seems to be getting stuck with a lot of dorky dad type roles when he should be getting to play more original characters) and I even liked how they figured out the strongest ways to use Bowen, Marcello and even Chloe this week.

Closing Thoughts 

• Next week, Sabrina Carpenter makes her hosting debut. Her appearances at SNL50 make me think she is going to handle the show well. Still, this season hasn’t really gotten far enough off the ground yet for me to make any kind of call as to how her episode will go. Let’s just hope she brings some youthful, bubbly l pop star energy to keep morale up.

• Hey, one thing I know about Sabrina Carpenter is that she once did voices on an animated Disney show called “Milo Murphy’s Law” opposite one Mr. “Weird Al” Yankovic. Now, this show is probably too obscure for SNL even reference let alone parody in a live sketch but on the extremely off chance that it isn’t, one thing I would personally like to see is some kind of variation on this sketch with either a possible cameo from Al or maybe just JAJ playing him or something, I don’t know.

• Hey, be sure to listen to the newest episode of the We Heart Hader podcast where me and Deej react to all three Greg The Alien sketches. It’s a short one, but it’s a lot of fun. After that, our next episode will be a full length review of the Zach Braff/Maroon 5 season 32 finale (which you will also be able to read on this blog in two weeks). See ya next time!
