Get ready for a wild ride as Nick dives headfirst into the uproarious Saturday Night Live (SNL) episode hosted by none other than martial arts sensation Steven Seagal. Labeled as the worst SNL episode ever (even by Lorne Michaels) and featuring the most disastrous host in the show’s history, this episode is packed with hilarity. Tune in for some side-splitting testimonials from cast members and writers who had the misfortune of working with Seagal that week. Unravel the chaos behind the scenes, with endless arguments and frantic rewrites leading up to the live show. And, of course, revel in the actual sketches and cringe-inducing moments that prove Steven Seagal is, without a doubt, the most hilariously terrible SNL host of all time. [EP13]

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.
