Our buddy Devon Walker (SNL, Big Mouth, "My Favorite Lyrics" podcast) is in Chicago and we had to get him on the pod. Devon talks about coming up in the Austin comedy scene, getting Comedy Central's Comics to Watch just two years in, moving to New York City with $7,000, and surviving nightmare roommates — including one guy whose profile picture screams guilty verdict. He gives the full play-by-play of his SNL audition, from the club showcase to performing standup on an empty Studio 8H stage in front of Lorne Michaels. Then we completely derail into apocalypse survival plans, a rabid chimp horror movie, Chicago segregation stories, the legendary Southside Irish Parade corned beef heist, and why Vegas is Disneyland for idiots. Devon picks the panda as his favorite animal and almost gets into a fistfight with a security guard at an Eagles bar.

Our buddy Luke Null (SNL, "Pretty Songs Dirty Words" ft. Wayne Brady) is back in Chicago and we had to get him on the pod. We talk comedy, SNL stories, the legendary Chicago scene, and then completely derail into golf course crimes, gas station madness, and the funniest childhood stories you've ever heard. Luke shares how his last name literally breaks hotel websites, we discuss the insanity of Buc-ee's gas stations, and Chris reveals his dad's secret pipe-stealing operation.

It took the boys three episodes to regress to first graders. We discuss niche sciences, pants dorsils, and the empire. It's very dumb, and also kinda smart, but mostly dumb. Just like all the stuff. Thanks for stopping by!
