November 20, 2024 371: "Serving C*nt" - SNL S45E13 - RuPaul / Justin Bieber
This week on Saturday Night Jive we're mourning democracy as we watch an episode of Saturday Night Live. It's Season 45, an era of the show that George doesn't even enjoy and Ben really hates. RuPaul hosts and Justin Bieber sings. Don't worry, you'll get to hear George's opinions about Kitty Scott Claus as well as Ben's pleas to hunt down all Trump supporters. This is not a good episode of SNL. It's not a terrible episode, it's just kinda boring. We get some Thirsty Cops, RuPaul reading some books, two random ladies screaming in a restaurant, two other random ladies sitting on a couch talking about shit, a family game of Charades going wrong, Chad gets dolled up like a drag queen, a debate cold open that Ben didn't even watch, and the immortal Beck Bennett ruining his life over a game of Boop-It (which is the only thing we liked in the whole episode). Enjoy! This episode was fan requested, if you'd like to request anything hit us up!

November 16, 2024 370: "The Big One Was His Ass" - Canadian Bacon (1995)
This week on Saturday Night Jive we're gearing up for the 2024 election by watching a political comedy from 1995. Canadian Bacon is the only non-documentary directed by Michael Moore and it's a cold war satire about a fake conflict with our neighbors to the north. It's fine. It's the last movie released to feature John Candy's as he died the year before. It's got Rhea Pearlman obsessed with a building that looks like a penis. It's got Rip Torn yelling and grunting. It's got a pretty fun cast also featuring Alan Alda and Kevin Pollak. But most importantly it features cameos from two SNL alums in Jim Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. This is our last podcast before the 2024 election but due to an uploading issue it's being released a week later so enjoy that brief moment of time where we still had some hope. You can also watch this episode on YouTube (search Saturday Night Jive Podcast and you should be able to find it) as we recorded this live to YouTube when we thought we'd never be able to post a new podcast episode. Anyway, Enjoy!

November 14, 2024 369: "Right In Them Dimples" - Three To Tango (1999) and SNL's Hottest Cast Members
This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched Three To Tango for some reason. A romantic comedy starring 3 one-time SNL hosts in Matthew Perry, Neve Campbell, and Dylan McDermott where Chandler Bing has to pretend he's gay to appease his boss while romancing his boss's mistress. We thought it would be more problematic than it turned out to be. So as a bonus to a conversation on a mediocre and forgettable movie we also rank the Hottest SNL Cast Member by fan request. So listen to us drool over some hunky and sexy Not Ready For Primetime Players then listen to us talk about Matthew Perry's hair. Enjoy!

October 03, 2024 368: "All Your Holes Are Filled" - SNL S7E4 - Donald Pleasence / Fear
As you're gearing up for spooky season we watched the spookiest episode in Saturday Night Live history. It's the infamous Season 7 episode hosted by Donald Pleasence with musical guest Fear. This episode aired on Halloween night and the show took full advantage of that. We get a British soldier sawing his own leg off, a woman cleaning up the mess from her recently murdered husband through song, a pumpkin committing seppuku, a family sitting down to a sugar breakfast, a random John Belushi cameo, a talk show ending in murder, Brian DePalma ripping off Hitchcock, body horror with joggers, a Jekyll & Hyde Jerry Lewis, and most terrifying of all a musical version of MacBeth. This one's got a lot of blood, a lot of gore, and concludes in one of the most infamous musical performance of all time. Grab your smashing pumpkin and don't forget to vomit for luck . Enjoy!

September 26, 2024 367: "Father Guido Sarducci Never Breaks Character" - SNL S4E3 - Frank Zappa
By popular demand we watched a "classic" episode of SNL from Season 4 hosted by Frank Zappa. This episode is notorious for being terrible and Zappa has been on many Worst Host Ever lists. Turns out it's all true. This sucked. Zappa doesn't give a shit during the whole episode, every sketch is way too long, and it's a pretty dismal affair all around. George defends Zappa a little (at least musically) but Ben hates this man's guts. Take a trip up to Freak Mountain and hang with us as we don't do drugs. Enjoy!

September 17, 2024 366: "Tinkerbell Is Dead" - Thomas And The Magic Railroad (2000)
This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched Thomas And The Magic Railroad from 2000 starring 17-time SNL host Alec Baldwin as Mr. Conductor. So this was a huge mistake. Turns out this movie isn't interested in helping you understand what the hell is going on so we spend the majority of the podcast simply confused by the lore of magical trains who don't move their mouths when they talk. We also had no idea this was related to Shining Time Station starring George Carlin and Ringo Starr as Mr. Conductor, we thought that was a different thing. It could be a totally different thing, this could have nothing to do with anything, we have no clue and the movie doesn't seem to either. Help us construct this 1,000 shit puzzle as this is the most perplexing movie we've watched since Southland Tales. Enjoy!

September 10, 2024 365: "Soak My Coark" - Jimmy Fallon Breaking - An SNL Recurring Character Study
And we're back with yet another installment of our award winning segment ...And We're Back! where we take a deep dive into an SNL recurring character and watch all their appearances. This week we did something a little different. Instead of watching a recurring character we watched a selection of SNL sketches where Jimmy Fallon adorably broke character and giggled. We picked some doozies but surprisingly we don't put too much blame on Jimmy. Don't get us wrong, he sucks and we don't like him, but these sketches were turds to begin with and Jimmy just turned them into giggly turds. We got some recurring characters in the mix with Jeffrey's, The Leather Man, The Lovers, Debbie Downer, and of course his most recognizable impression Osama Bin Laden. Hope you appreciate all we do for you. Enjoy!
Sketches IncludeAquarium Repairman - Season 28, Episode 9 hosted by Jeff GordonCorksoakers - Season 29, Episode 17 hosted by Janet JacksonJeffrey's - Season 26, Episode 18 hosted by Pierce BrosnanThe Leather Man - Season 28, Episode 6 hosted by Brittany MurphyDebbie Downer - Season 29, Episode 18 hosted by Lindsay LohanSaddam & Osama - Season 29, Episode 9 hosted by Jennifer AnistonLovers - Season 27, Episode 3 hosted by Drew BarrymoreBehind The Music - Season 25, Episode 16 hosted by Christopher Walken

September 06, 2024 364: "A 2004 Burrito" - White Chicks (2004)
This week on Saturday Night Jive (actually almost a year ago on Saturday Night Jive) we watched the 2004 comedy White Chicks starring SNL alum Damon Wayans.....'s brothers Shawn and Marlon as horrifying creatures that we are expected to believe can pass as rich white women. This was intended to be a "lost episode" of the podcast just because I thought the movie was bad, I didn't enjoy talking about it, and why should I spend my time putting together something I don't want to work on. But at long last you can hear our thoughts on this film that probably shouldn't have been made in the first place. A ludicrous premise handled poorly, there could possibly be a good movie hiding somewhere in here but we couldn't find it. We do get another sighting of Lochlyn Munro though who pops up way too frequently on this podcast. Enjoy!

September 03, 2024 363: "Give Me Some Funny Banjo" - Shana and Trina - An SNL Recurring Character Study
And we're back with yet another installment of our award winning segment ...And We're Back! where we take a deep dive into an SNL recurring character and watch all their appearances. This week we watched two characters from the same performer. Kristen Wiig is an absolute delight as Shana, the hot lady who does weird things but befuddles us as Trina, a different lady who does weird things. For some, neither may work or both my work. For us, we definitely enjoyed one more than the other. It is fascinating that two characters from the same performer with basically the same premise can have such wildly different outcomes. In both, Kristen enters a scene, grosses out or annoys the people in the scene and they react in a way of "Wow, can you believe how crazy and annoying that character is?". So what makes them so different? Is it just because we are more attracted to one? We'll dive in and find out on this week's episode of Saturday Night Jive. Enjoy!
Sketches IncludeNew Girl - Season 34, Episode 10 hosted by John MalkovichMake-Up Counter - Season 34, Episode 14 hosted by Steve MartinCottage Cheese Ideas - Season 35, Episode 4 hosted by Gerard ButlerSki Retreat - Season 35, Episode 11 hosted by Charles BarkleyBasketball Game - Season 36, Episode 2 hosted by Bryan CranstonHalloween Party - Season 37, Episode 3 hosted by Ben Stiller

August 27, 2024 362: "Speaking Of Will Sasso...Plus VIEWER MAIL" - B.A.P.S (1997)
This week on Saturday Night Jive we finally watched B.A.P.S from 1997 starring one-time SNL host Halle Berry, Martin Landau, one-time SNL host Bernie Mac, and of course everyone's favorite white rapper/stand-up comic Barry Sobel. At long last, Ben's dream came true and we watched this random 90's comedy. Surprisingly it's not as cringy as one might expect, doesn't mean it's good, just not an abysmal and racist crap-fest. We also open up our e-mail for the first time in almost 2 years and respond to some listener suggestions. Enjoy!
