Ryan Gosling is back — and so is his laugh. Brad, Nate, and Ben break down the March 7, 2026, episode of Saturday Night Live, the 1,002nd episode in the show's history, and Gosling's fourth time hosting. He arrived at Studio 8H promoting Project Hail Mary (opening March 20). The guys go sketch-by-sketch through a pre-tape-heavy night, debating whether Gosling's legendary inability to keep a straight face is a feature or a bug or a flaw.

In this episode, we discuss:

The Host: Ryan Gosling's SNL legacy.

The Sketches: A full breakdown of the night, including the Harry Styles monologue crash, Otezla (the best fake drug ad since Happy Fun Ball), the dimwitted Cyclopes of Darlor, Monty McTreats and his Dodeedees, the world's most enthusiastic glass-clinking wedding guest, and the sketch where the writers swapped out the notes before air and let Gosling and Padilla fend for themselves.

Weekend Update: Jost and Che on Kristi Noem's "self-deportation" and the Iran war, plus Kenan Thompson as Pastor Update and his bandleader Teddy delivering unhinged gospel tunes. And of course — the Bradometer.

The Awards: We crown our MVP of the Night and debate which sketch deserves the title of Sketch of the Night.

Whether you're here for the Giggle Boy Gosling, the pre-tapes, or just to find out what the Goo-Goo Man is, we've got you covered.

SNL is back! After nearly a month away for the Winter Olympics, Brad, Nate, and Ben reunite to break down the February 28, 2026, episode of Saturday Night Live — the 1,001st episode in the show's history — hosted by Heated Rivalry breakout star Connor Storrie, with musical guest Mumford & Sons.

Storrie arrived at Studio 8H fresh off one of the most buzzed-about TV performances in recent memory, playing closeted Russian hockey player Ilya Rozanov on the HBO Max/Crave hit Heated Rivalry. The timing couldn't have been better: both the U.S. men's and women's hockey teams had just won gold at the 2026 Winter Olympics, and the show pulled in Jack Hughes, Quinn Hughes, Hilary Knight, and Megan Keller for a monologue that had the crowd losing their minds. Oh, and Heated Rivalry co-star Hudson Williams showed up for a surprise appearance mid-episode, with... too much screaming?! You decide.

The guys go sketch-by-sketch through the night, rating everything from a topical Iran War cold open to a very injured stripper, and debate whether Storrie is one of the best first-time hosts in recent memory. Plus: the Bradometer returns, Weekend Update gets the full breakdown, and the guys crown their MVP and Sketch of the Night.

Sketches from This Episode

1. Cold Open – Trump's Iran War Address (James Austin Johnson as Trump, Colin Jost as Pete Hegseth)
2. Monologue – Connor Storrie, with cameos from Jack Hughes, Quinn Hughes, Hilary Knight & Megan Keller
3. Math Quiz – Mr. Fronzi (Marcello Hernández) and his class
4. The Gentlemen's Code – A 19th-century glove-slapping escalation (Storrie, Mikey Day)
5. Ice Skating – A proposal goes sideways at Rockefeller Plaza, featuring surprise guest Hudson Williams
6. Math Tutor – Jock meets stalker-y tutor Dirkus (Ben Marshall) and his equally odd parents (Ashley Padilla, James Austin Johnson)
7. Weekend Update – Colin Jost & Michael Che on the Iran war; featuring:
8. Leg Lengthening – Griff's illegal European surgery (Marcello Hernández on stilts, Storrie with tiny little legs)
9. Office Morale – A colleague pitches a company-wide office dance (Mikey Day, Storrie, and an awkward Mumford & Sons cameo)
10. Stripper – Serj, the exotic dancer, shows up to a Vegas bachelorette party after being "hit by a little car" (Storrie, Ashley Padilla, Sarah Sherman, Veronika Slowikowska, Jane Wickline)

Cut for Time (on YouTube)

1. Car Song – Veronika Slowikowska and Jane Wickline lament the rideshare door handle; Storrie plays the inventor of all the confusing ones
2. The National Workforce of Rethinking Disabilities – Canceled celebrities (Armie Hammer, Jill Zarin, Louis C.K., Kanye West, Bill Cosby, and Michael Che as himself) all blame their misdeeds on Tourette's

*Tell us your MVP and Sketch of the Night in the comments! Did you catch the cut-for-time sketches on YouTube? Do you think Storrie makes a return trip to Studio 8H?*

In this episode of the Ten to One Podcast, Brad, Nate, and Ben dive deep into the January 31, 2026, episode of Saturday Night Live hosted by the surprisingly weird Alexander Skarsgård.

The guys go sketch by sketch through the night, discussing Skarsgård's best and worst performances from a brooding, Viking-themed pre-tape to the high-fashion absurdity of Jane Wickline being an Olympic luger and Ashley Padilla being a mom with a change of heart.

In this episode, we discuss:

1. The Host: Alexander celebrating the 1,000th episode of SNL in a low-key way
2. The Sketches: A full breakdown of the night, including Mom's Confession, Immigrant Dad Talk Show, and Tarzan.
3. Weekend Update: Colin Jost and Michael Che tackle the latest headlines, plus we review the desk segments—including the return of Sarah Sherman doing her thing with Colin Jost, and the hilarious return of Two People Who Just Hooked Up.
4. The Awards: We crown our MVP of the Night and debate which sketch deserves the title of Sketch of the Night.

This week, we’re recapping the January 24, 2026, episode of Saturday Night Live with the talented Teyana Taylor as host.

We break down each sketch from the night and talk about how Teyana’s experience in dance, directing, and acting shows up on the SNL stage. From her energetic monologue to the wildest characters, we look at what worked, what didn’t, and which sketches stood out thanks to her charisma. We also check out the cut-for-time sketches on YouTube and ask if the best material made it to air or if the real highlights ended up online.

Finally, we open the Ten to One Mailbag to answer your questions, share your thoughts on Season 51 so far, and pick our MVP and Sketch of the Night.

The Ten to One crew is back with a brand-new recap—Nate, Ben, and Brad break down Saturday Night Live (Jan. 17, 2026) featuring first-time host Finn Wolfhard.

We go sketch-by-sketch through Finn’s debut on Studio 8H, from Colin Jost’s Pete Hegseth impression in the cold open to a monologue full of “grown-up former child star” jokes (plus surprise appearances by Gaten Matarazzo and Caleb McLaughlin), to the night’s big swings and occasional misses. 

We also dig into returning favorites like “Snack Homiez” (with Sabrina Carpenter popping back in) and the sci-fi silliness of “Dark Orbit”.

And of course, we hit Weekend Update and the Brad-o-meter.

Which sketches stood out as the highs, which ones fell flat, and where does this one rank in the season so far? Listen along.

This week on the Ten to One, we recap and review the latest episode of Saturday Night Live with first-time host Josh O’Connor.

We go sketch-by-sketch through a holiday-leaning episode packed with awkward moments, a familiar character from Bowen Yang, and a nice standup bit from Marcello Hernandez, among other things.

• The Air Force One press conference cold open and another spin on Trump-world chaos
• Josh O’Connor’s monologue (including his funny Ratatouille casting bit)
• Teaching Hospital and the return of Bowen Yang’s Dr. Please
• Uber Eats Wrapped, the painfully relatable stats that Ben would not like to see
• Bachelorette Party Strippers, featuring the “sensitive strippers.”
• Characters on Characters, pairing iconic Christmas figures for very serious actor talk, with a Brad-nit-pick
• Weekend Update, including bits from Marcello Hernández and Jane Wickline
• The night’s holiday extras: Brad and His Dad: Christmas, Wizard of Oz Deleted Footage, and more

We close it out with our picks for Sketch of the Night, the episode MVP, and where Josh O’Connor’s hosting debut lands in the Season 51 rankings.
