The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast

The Lonely Island & Seth Meyers

Join Seth Meyers as he sits down with fellow SNL alum and comedy-music sensations The Lonely Island (Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone) to discuss their wildly popular and groundbreaking series of SNL Digital Shorts that aired on Saturday Night Live beginning in 2005. Episode by episode they'll discuss how each short was created, what the response to it was at the time, and what impact, if any, it still has today. Aided by Seth, the guys will relive their time at SNL and reminisce on the nearly 50-year-old show from a time when putting short comedy sketches on the internet was so novel that they maybe even helped launch YouTube to do it. Along the way they'll talk all things SNL from guests, fellow cast members, and favorite live sketches including many that never aired.

    Just 2 Guyz

    On this episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast it's the Kiv and Jorm episode! Andy and Seth are off doing better things so Kiv and Jorm are finally coming back to a highly requested video. It's Just 2 Guyz from 2004. A Lonely Island Original from the days before SNL. If you're listening on audio only you might want to go check this out on YouTube or Spotify video because they're going through the video beat by beat and giving you all the details. Plus, they answer some Q&As about Just 2 Guyz and Liz drops by! The plan here was to do the entire "two guyz" quadrilogy this episode but they had so much to say that they're going to do the rest in their own episodes...at some point.

    Talkin’ Ads/Turtleneck & Chain Part 1

    On this episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast the guys accidentally do a bunch of ads in honor of the Super Bowl. But really, we’re starting a series on the 2011 album Turtleneck & Chain. We’re going to go song by song and discuss each one! Starting with the announcement video released on April 1st 2011, We’re Back! Also, Jorm isn’t here today. Full transparency we didn’t know we were going to do this today and sort of figured it out halfway through so there is a lot of talk about brands including Rökk Vodka and Klondike Bar before we get into the song. Plus as always, some thoughts on your thoughts on last week’s episode. And, how many pushups do you think Seth can do? You’ll find out!

    Golden Girls Theme

    This week on The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast, the guys are back from the holidays and discussing a short they describe as “okay.” It’s Golden Girls’ Theme from Season 35, Episode 21 on May 8, 2010 featuring the entire cast of SNL (plus some guests and definitely not Seth) and host, Betty White. Before they get into that though, they catch up, respond to some comments and thoughts from over the break, and generally waste time to avoid talking about this short.

    Seth is gone! He’s in Foggy London Town hanging out with Graham Norton. So the guys are answering some Q&As from the QA. First and foremost, Jorm is NOT faking his accident! It’s totally real. Just because he got up on stage and danced as Pee-Wee Herman does not mean he did not have a life-threatening accident mere months ago that could have paralyzed him for life. He just has an amazing doctor. You remember him? This episode has a lot going on, lots of fun stories and questions, cool idioms, and Andy gives you some of his Spelling Bee hints (are you listening, New York Times Games??). You’re going to enjoy it… we guarantee it! Also, the guys are definitely Winter Soldiers, so don’t say the secret phrase. They need their sleep. Portugal.
