Shownotes Transcript

As a Ford owner, there are lots of choices of where you get your vehicle serviced. You can choose to go to their place, the local dealership, your place, home, apartment, condo, your workplace, even your happy place, like your cottage on the lake. Go to your Ford dealer and choose Ford pickup and delivery to have your vehicle picked up, serviced, and brought right back.

Or choose mobile service where a technician will come to you and do routine maintenance right on the spot. Both are complimentary and depend on your location. That's ownership built around you. Contact your participating dealer or visit FordService.com for important details and limitations. And now a word from our sponsors at Betterment. Do you want your money to be motivated?

So Dana, you have an exciting weekend. What are you excited about this weekend? And we'll show it after the weekend. Yeah. It's been top secret.

I've kept it under wraps for weeks. But I was asked by Lorne Michaels to come on Saturday Night Live

and if you're listening to this, you know this, to do Biden. So, because I've sort of casually developed, I like to take, you know, like with George Bush. On here. George Bush Sr., not gonna do it. I tried to do that treatment to Biden and I did it on here with our YouTube clips and extrapolating it, making it silly and weird. And so... Those clips get around. We'll see. Yeah.

I don't think, I didn't see it out there enough, a Biden impression in recent times. - Yeah, not many people are doing Biden, that's true. - Yeah, a lot of brilliant Trumps, Shane, James Austin Johnson. Biden is trickier, but for me, part of the continuum of getting that high energy part of him, and that didn't come out until like maybe six months into his first term where they asked him some question and he got kind of mad.

i can do whatever you want that rhythm yeah when you see uh like when i see people that you could do an impression of a lot of people on the surface don't see anything it's just like that's too hard there's nothing but you go lower layers layers and start you start to dig and then you're finding these nuggets and every time you did them on the show here it was getting better and more things happening and then it's like sort of it's a whole thing going on yeah and then i just uh you know

Sounds kind of corny, but the true North Star is to try to make it funny and not really get it to be a political message per se. So I don't know why at one point I didn't write it down or sharpen my pencil that he would say, I can't believe it's not butter with declarative intent. Don't know why. It was Pirates of the Caribbean.

then it was he would say can't believe it's not butter and then you gave me one um bed bath and beyond which is a good one too because beyond is good with with biden so um so i've kept it under wraps and you got it now you're in new york and that's where we're doing this from and you've been there uh getting ready exciting you went to a read-through and uh and you go and you're rehearsing and then you do it

this weekend, so we'll air this and then we'll go over it on the next Superfly how it was. - When will we air this? - All the things that happened. - I'd say Sunday. - After I've done the show? - Yeah. - Yeah. - So. - We'll put it right up right after. - You know, with comedy, the thing about it is you don't want anyone to go, like, right before you shoot your special,

I'm telling you, you're going to kill it. You're going to crush it. No. Right? Of course not. What do you want to hear? Usually you're like, well, try to have fun. I guess it's the last thing I'd say to you. Yeah, it's a fun thing to do. And I think you'll at least have a good time with Gaffigan and with everybody that's

Everyone in the cast of The Cold Opening has been on our podcast. That's kind of cool. I love it. The great thing about this podcast, I said before, is that you run into people in show business that may be at an after party or at some event, and it's small talk. But once we have an hour with someone, you just feel like you know them in a different way. And saying hello to Bowen Yang and Mikey Day and just know them all so much better from this podcast. So that's been a great experience.

bonus so that when I went in there and Maya too, I just felt like I knew everybody. Here comes the old guy from the 80s. Well, let's hear how it was next week and we go back to the regular Superfly and we'll say, alright, thanks everybody. That was a fun one and we'll see you next week.

And by the way, one last thing is that we'll now the cat's out of the bag. We're going to,

We're going to be giving you some of the inside scoop. Oh, yeah. Dana will tell us about the week and what happened on the inside scoop. The week that fell off, the person who forgot their line, the cue card that exploded spontaneously. What are the rehearsals like? And the elephant that got loose when Lorne tried to ride it. Oh, we cut that sketch. All right. Sounds good. Have a great time out there, Dana, and see everybody next week.

See you next week.
