Chapter 1: What was the setup for the recording?
Hey, Andy, how are you, bud?
I'm good. How are you, Sethi?
Good. Yoram was just setting up his recording device. We only caught the tail end of it for you guys, but that was kind of what the last five minutes of Andy in my life has been, right?
Yeah, but honestly, it was nice to have it be someone else.
Someone else stressing out about their equipment?
Yeah.
Can I say the part that I was most thrown by is we got on and Yoram had a lot of audio questions and he said, I got a new setup from a kid down the street. Exact words. His name is Ted Perotti. Thanks, Ted. But what? You have your own equipment. Why are you getting it from a kid down the street? Because I'm in Connecticut. Also, no one meets more people with other recording equipment than you are.
That is full on true. And I'm impressed with myself.
So you're away from your home, Kit, and you had to find a guy in Nowheresville, Connecticut, who had a recording set up.

Chapter 2: How do the hosts feel about SNL's 50th anniversary?
Yeah.
Shout out to James on the catch.
I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if we try and go back in there and fix it. Yeah. Because that's pretty... That seems like the kind of thing you would do. Oh, for sure. Yeah. Definitely didn't notice is the... The short answer.
Here's one from Greg. It sounds like the host has the authority to say, I'll do this, but I won't do that. I was wondering, do cast members have the same authority? Has there ever been an instance when everyone believed they had a great sketch on their hands, but an actor refused based solely on the fact they didn't think it was funny?
Assuming that's allowed, do you have any examples of that actor being so right or so wrong? Very, very insightful question. There was that great joke in Sandler's song about a sketch killing at the read-through table, but then it doesn't go because the host didn't want to take his shirt off. Oh my God, that made me laugh so fucking hard.
That whole song was fucking wonderful.
Hyper specific.
Also, you know, Sandler specifically wrote like a hundred things where the host took their shirt off.
I don't think it happens a lot that an actor asks not to be in something. A cast member. Mostly because you're so afraid that if you do that, the writer won't put you in anything ever again.

Chapter 4: How do they feel about the Star Wars prequels?
Hello, Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Pod. My question for you is, are your wives fans of your comedy? And do they have a favorite digital short?
The word fan is a little loaded. I don't know if I would ever say my wife is a fan of my comedy. I think she likes what we do. Yeah. I just don't know if I would use the word fan.
Mine is, but not as much as I am a fan of hers. Yeah, that's very sweet. I would say that as well. But it's enough that we stay together. I can tell you that Alexi's favorite digital short is Jack Sparrow, for sure.
Wonderful. Loves Jack Sparrow.
I don't know what Joanna's favorite one is, but I know she really, I've mentioned this, really likes the song Punch You in the Jeans. I love that. She really likes I Ran So Far. She very much liked Dick in a Box.
Anybody who likes Punchy in the Jeans, I got to say that I'm a fan of them. Yeah.
Just a little teaser. I really liked watching Andy and Joanna grooving out to Lil Wayne.
All right, teaser. Another teaser. Yeah, 50th teaser. Just a teaser. My wife really does love Just You Guys, those characters. I think she just thinks they're cute guys. But I'm trying to think of ones that she doesn't like. This is a sidebar, but the worst reaction has ever gone over for me was actually for Mari's family was the video Diaper Money because my verse is about wife pussy.
And for some reason I was like thinking that they would think it was funny. And I was like, oh my God, you gotta check this new video out. And then as soon as they were watching it, it didn't go over so hot.
