Chapter 1: What experiences does Jay Mohr share about working with Chris Farley?
Jay Moore, Dana, was probably more for me being on SNL, but did you overlap at all?
He was there when I hosted, but he wasn't there when I was part of the cast.
Jay Moore, who did, he came on when I was there. We got to be friends. I still see him here and there. He has a funny podcast, talks a lot of old stories, and throws us in impressions. He does good impressions, which... You probably remember he does a really good walk-in. That was the last time I saw him do it. But he has a lot of people and he can really imitate well. But he is a funny dude.
We sat down with him and we had a blast. The guy is funny. He's always been funny. He had sort of a really up and down time on SNL.
Chapter 2: How did Jay Mohr develop his impression skills?
And he tells those stories. It's always interesting, you know. But I always tell people, Everyone who's ever been on SNL will spend a lot more time being an ex-SNL person. That's true. Everybody, except for Kenan, but that's all right so far.
Darryl Hammond, Kenan, most of their life was on SNL.
Good for them. Anyway, Jay Moore, this is entertaining. Please listen. When did you come on? 91. Start. 91. I was there till 93.
Chapter 3: What insights does Jay provide about the challenges of being on SNL?
Wait. Do you know who Dana is? Which one? Are you a Church Lady fan or are you more of a Garth guy? Are you Coffee Machine fan? You're Dana? No. It's in our contract. I had to grow this so we look even more similar. I was not on Saturday Night Live with you, Dana. Well, we both were there in 92, so there's a little bit of a problem.
Yeah. When you and I were there, David, was Dana there also? No. Well, let me ask you a question.
Chapter 4: How did addiction impact Jay Mohr's life and career?
I came in with Sarah and Norm and David Tell. Later. Did you do it with Sarah and Norm and David Tell?
No, that was later. So you weren't there in 92, because that's what I was doing. Was Wayne's World happening all the time? What's Wayne's World? Okay. Let's back up. So you missed it by that much. I missed it just by a little bit. A birdie told me. But I remember being there once where Franken and Chris Farley were going to fight. Franken and Chris Farley were going to wrestle.
And I remember you hanging around and I remember, oh, Jay, you know, like you were like, I could take both of you guys kind of like you were going to, there was a three.
Chapter 5: What humorous stories does Jay share about his time with Tracy Morgan?
So I don't know if you ever read. I do remember that now.
Yeah. And I also remember, okay, David and, it's so weird to call you David. David. Spade and Fred Wolf were in the graphics room.
I knew Fred Wolf would come up immediately. He's the best. Fred, Fred.
You're really funny. You're not so funny. That's really good. I shouldn't do that.
No, no, no. I'm just kidding.

Chapter 6: How does Jay Mohr describe the dynamics of SNL's writing room?
The six shooters up here, that was really good. Really good. I'll tell you a story, but I'm going to talk to you for one second. I'm going to talk to you, and I have a question for you.
I just remember a waiter coming over going, get the fuck out of here. He's in the middle of a punchline, and the waiter would walk up. He goes, get the fuck out of here. Get the fuck out of here. Because they always come on the punchline. I wasn't as funny as you.
I was pretty good, right? But I wasn't as funny as you guys.
Uh, so Spade and, um, Fred Wolfe are in the graphics room and I walk in to see what they're doing. Then Farley walks in and then Fred just, Fred's like the master manipulator. Like, Hey Chris, you know, Jay wrestled, you wrestled.
Chapter 7: What does Jay reveal about his journey to sobriety?
You know, Jay says he could kick your ass at wrestling. And I'm like, yeah, I'm 23 years old. I'm like, absolutely. Yeah. And Chris just- You were a young- Chris is just like, yeah, all right. So we square up to wrestle. Like he's not even in his crazy- This was in the writer's room where we- No, this was in the graphics room. Oh, okay. Where's that? It was Frank on the way to Lauren's office.
Okay. And it was just you and Fred were just doing private time or something. Some graphics. What happened? So I made the mistake of shooting in on Chris's legs, and he just collapsed on top of me.
Chapter 8: How does Jay Mohr reflect on his relationships and personal growth?
And then I went to my stomach, and I brought my elbows in, and Chris, for the next six minutes, sat on my back going... And you couldn't get out. No, I thought, I really thought my life was going to end.
Sure. Well, yeah.
And I was trying to say, Chris, you're trying to break my back. And after six minutes, David saved me. He goes, get the fuck off him. Come on, Chris. And he just jumped.
Cheers, Davey. By the way, first of all, it was all Fred's fault. Oh, yeah.
Okay, Jay is doing, miming Chris Farley's little running thing.
His heart attack thing where he always hits his, or he goes, son of a, I have a, are you supposed to have a tingling feeling in your left arm? It's going numb. Yeah, yeah. So what about when he walked you to the elevator? Wasn't he mad about that? Oh, I pinned him.
Yeah. So the rematch was, it was Dana Carvey, Dana Carvey. It was, wow. I was the referee. I was reading your name right there. It was Alec Baldwin. I get you guys confused.
I apologize.
Me and Alec, we know, it's just a thing. It was Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger were co-hosting. Oh, they were there? Mingling? Yeah. Okay. And my follow-up to that was like, it really bugged me, because I was like, as the days- Well, can I ask for a second? Yeah.
