Reviews

4.9 out of 5 stars from 7.6k ratings
  • I never skip ad reads

    Perhaps because they you’re.kids get involved and deliver but mostly due to the mellifluous and dulcet tones of Jorma aka the Velvet Cog.

  • It’s Become ‘Corrections’

    Show used to be about the Lonely Island and SNL. Seth turned it into ‘Corrections,’ meaning, it’s now a show about itself. A snake choking on its own tale while reading comments about what funny names the snake should be called.

    If the comments were funnier than the hosts, the show would make sense, but making The Lonely Island stop talking and listen quietly while Seth reads more brain dead wordplay from the listeners sounds like John Mulaney’s intervention. No bits!

  • SNL Criterion Podcast

    Five stars. Every episode somehow makes me appreciate the shorts even more while also sending me down rabbit holes about things I never knew I needed to know. Hearing Seth, Andy, Akiva, Jorm, and the occasional surprise guest break down the creative process is comedy gold. Me likey that!

    The only downside is that now I can’t hear certain words without my brain immediately shouting “Righteous Kill!” But that could be my burrito brain…

  • Repetitive linguistic mistakes

    Hey guys! Long time quade, love you guys, don’t want to be too picky but Akiva has said “Ek-cetera” a few times recently and i feel i must call him out. Its “Et-cetera” as in bla bla bla, etc. It’s “T” after “E”…one of those situations where correcting someone who has said a word the wrong wors for way too long and thinking if its worth bringing up…love you guys!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Nintendo Cartoon Hour
Q: From the listener question about height with Taylor Swift, who is taller and by how much?
The host explains that Seth is taller; Jorma confirms Seth's height difference and they discuss platform differences (Apple Music lyrics vs. the audio version).
Listener Q&A Episode 13
Q: How did you feel leading up to the first substantial television airing of these shorts, and what was the reception like when they finally aired?
There was a mix of nerves and confidence; we believed in the material, but the live room experience and the audience reaction after airing confirmed that these pieces had real impact, often buoyed by strong collaboration and timing.
What Was That?
Q: Andy, how did you feel about New York Magazine calling Seth and Jorma the two sweetest sweetie pies of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast?
It's easy for people to hear what they're given on the pod and not know the darker truth behind the public image; the dynamic is more complicated, with genuine warmth but also a sense of playful mischief that the magazine only partially captured.
Boogerman Part 1&2
Q: What was the idea behind Boogerman and how did you approach it?
The idea was to parody the Oscar-style tribute by presenting the film as the subject of an interpretive musical number, using real award-show cutaways and a serious dance to a ridiculous premise, acknowledging it was a big swing that didn't fully land but was memorable for its audacity.
Just 2 Guyz
Q: Who invited Steve?
Steve is the one character they always picked on, probably because they were jealous.
