Description

Nick's guest is legendary character actor Stephen Tobolowsky, star of hundreds of TV shows and movies including: "Groundhog Day," "Thelma and Louise," "Memento," "The Goldbergs," One Day at a Time," and "GLEE." Tobo talks about how SNL revolutionized his world back in 1975, and continued to inspire him as the years passed. He talks about the pods of genius that began with the very first episode, and discusses his favorite sketches (John Belushi's Samurai sketches, Chevy Chase's physical Gerald Ford bits) and cast members (Dana Carvey, Chris Farley, to name a few) thru the years, and he shares some AMAZING stories about working with such SNL legends as: Bill Murray, Ana Gasteyer, Tim Meadows, Molly Shannon, Julia-Louis Dreyfus, Buck Henry, Jim Belushi, Chevy Chase, Will Farrell....and many more. This is a great conversation with a great actor, telling great stories, about great performers, and the importance of "Saturday Night Live." [EP25]

Award-winning radio personality, podcaster, and SNL fanatic/historian NICK DIGILIO hosts this weekly deep dive into the world of the granddaddy of all sketch-comedy shows. Nick, a Second City grad and veteran of Chicago comedy and theater, has watched every single episode of SNL since George Carlin hosted the premiere on October 11th, 1975. Consisting of new and old episode analysis; SNL-relates guests; historical impact; and even entire episodes dedicated completely to just one sketch…this is every SNL fan’s dream podcast, and proof that that tired, cliched statement: “That show hasn’t been funny in years,” is simply NOT true.
