nothing there's nothing better than them and they came to that show they were so tuned up i remember before you guys brought me out just like you guys there's so much love there for you guys and what they do fan base i'm so lucky because i've touched into a lot of different fan bases and they're all so nice positive intelligent yes but can get dark humor yes like dirty jokes i'm not offended by fucking everything who like dirty jokes impossibly good group so that was a party people should really listen to that one it's so funny you talking about
Obama fucking Michelle Obama. I remember that one.
I think there's a lot of things that were like B stories and sitcoms and now people are like, yeah, no, that's true.
I got a real garbage dick when it comes to working with people.
I can't wait for the 50th anniversary of this podcast.
I did not audition for SNL. In like 1998, I remember... people from NBC came to improv Olympic to watch, you know, to scout. And I remember, Oh my God. And it was the worst too. Cause the owner, God bless her Sharna. She like invited like 50 of us to go on stage at once. So like everyone was like, put your pushing people aside to like do a character.
Yeah.
It was, it was just irreprehensible. But so then I, I, I moved to Amsterdam for a couple of years. And then when I came back, I was like, I want to do SNL. But before SNL, I even auditioned, I got cast on mad TV. And so I was kind of there.
That's right. There's others, 2009 to, I mean, there's... I mean, it's a very important information, so it's natural there's going to be discrepancies online about it. Mine says 1886, too. It's got to be wrong. Oh, man, I did an amazing impression of Rutherford B. Hayes that really got me cast on it.
My dream was to always be on SNL. We grew up in a very SNL heavy home and, Uh, like we, we, some of my earliest memories are watching like, uh, like Eddie Murphy, uh, the 83 year, uh, with like, uh, Billy Crystal and stuff. So we were obsessed with it in our house. And when you're in the comedy scene, especially the improv scene in Chicago in the nineties, that's your goal.
Um, but I, you know, listen, man, I, I, I was busing tables at Morton's on La Cienega, uh,
and i know the rest of them you know it's it's no longer there sadly uh bus boy i was a bus boy bus boy we've all been bus boys the hardest job in the world bus bussing tables it's so hard i'm especially there because there's like so many famous people you know and you you're like kind of like starstruck like one time i saw pete rose there and i was so excited you know then i walked past him and he grabbed my arm he goes hey give my wife a diet coke get out of here
And I was like, oh, okay.
Bet you can't finish that ribeye, Charlie. Oh, boy. But it was, you know, to get an offer to be on a TV show, especially a sketch comedy show, was just a dream. So I was just kind of like, great, let's do it. And there was really... Great writers there. Some great performers. A lot of great people came on.
Oh, my friend. I know you're friends with Bobby. You've been friends with Bobby for a very long time. Right.
The great Josh Myers. Yeah. Josh Myers and Michael McDonald was still there. Jordan Peel and Keegan-Michael Key came while we were there. Nicole Parker.
Yeah, we had a big fat cast.
Beau Bice. Oh, my God. I mean, I'm still doing it a lot, obviously. I shouldn't say this, but I feel like Beau Bice, if you told me he stormed the Capitol, I'd be like, yeah.
But yeah, we, you know, Mad TV definitely did a lot of impressions of the moment. Of course. We got stuck with that too.
Was there ever one that you guys were like bummed that you're like, this is obviously, this is a bad impression. I don't want to do it.
