Yes, I have actually stayed at Airbnbs from time to time. And truth be told, I do really like them. I'm being totally honest right now that I've had great experiences with them. Yeah. I mean, you can have your look at you go get your own place, get your own pool, your own living room. You're not going to walk in an elevator. You're not going to see people when you're walking around in your undergarments. Yeah.

Yes. And if you don't understand what we're talking about, you should go online. What we're saying is you have a house with a kitchen and a bathroom and it's just for you, tailored for you. You liked your Airbnb over a hotel. Yes. And I do think I've had relatives stay nearby and sometimes it's very nice for them to do an Airbnb and have a little house and they're not underfoot. The last thing you want is your house guest to say, excuse me, um,

Where would I find a towel? That's a toughie when it's- Because they're naked? Well, it's like the 1800th time you say, on the towel rack. Yeah. Thank you. Oh, I was going to look there. People don't even think hotels sometimes just go, hey, I'll go there, I'll get an Airbnb. So you won't regret it. Hello.

Come in. We're going to be more official now. Hello, everybody, and welcome to the show. I'm David Spade. And I'm Dan Glarny. We have Andy Samberg, who's... People have been asking about Andy to have mom because he's one of the...

greats of SNL that's been around. There's a certain pocket there that he had a great run on that he went to, Brooklyn Nine-Nine. And we talk about that. We talk about Hotel Transylvania. We talk about all his videos he did. The process and how he got on Saturday Night Live. His experiences with Lauren. We asked him some questions. Maybe go some places you wouldn't expect. Or you wouldn't like.

David had some nice rejoinders about the Vanity Fair party. That's just a bonus part of the episode. I do have a celebrity crush on Cate Blanchett. I will say that.

Kate Blanchett. Actress, yeah. She's great. She got Brad Pitt in a headlock at the Oscars backstage. I heard. We'll expand on that lie. But Adam Sandberg, very friendly, nice guy, funny. We talk about Mark Wahlberg. We talk about Dick in a Box. Yep. Talk about the Lonely Island stuff. Yeah.

Pop star of the movie. And he's just got a lot going. And he was super fun. Good mood. Yep. I loved it. I had a great time with him. He came in. You know, a lot of people don't come in. He came in. He came in. And gambled with his health by being around two idiots.

And a great time. So here he is. Here he is. Adam Sandberg. Oh, shit. Andy. I did it twice. Fuck me. He did say. All right. He did say. He said it happens all the time. Even his wife calls him Adam Sandberg.

Let's start over. Well, we'll just keep this, of course. I mistake Adam Sandberg with Adam, Andy Sandberg with Adam Sandler. Say that three times fast. I mistake Adam Sandberg. No, Adam Sandler. No, I know. Andy Sandberg. Three times.

Toy boat, toy boat, toy boat. Adam Sandler and Andy Sandberg. Adam Sandler, Andy Sandberg, Adam Sandler. We'll give away one joke. He said he got introduced, he was doing stand-up, and they messed his name up so bad, they just introduced him as Adam Sandler. And everyone went, what the fuck? And he crushed as Sandler. What are you doing? He did kind of the same thing.

thing where you were on the show and then you went to a sitcom pretty quickly was it right the next season yeah and I I mean I didn't want to yeah and then it was just Mike Schur asked and I was like oh shit I saw I saw what he did with Polar and I was like it's good yeah I mean if you I sort of went in Polar Polar doesn't go down for anybody I love Amy Polar

She doesn't what? She doesn't go down for anybody. What does that mean? I don't know. I just said it as a joke. She's powerful. She's a great comic. No, when you leave the show, it's very scary and...

And then they said, which I used to say was, you get like one kind of free shot, you know, like if you jump off the show, they go, do you want to, back then it was a little more going on in that world. Like they said, do you want to do your own sitcom? Oh yeah. Like Pauly Shore got one, you know, you get one, but it's very hard. It's riskier. And then Just Shoot Me was already shot. It was already at the upfronts.

And they picked it. And then Laura San Giacomo was out there to announce it. And the night before, they pulled her and said, it's just, we need one more thing to this. So it was so weird. So I got to see the whole pilot. Wow. And then the guy was Larry Sanders, which I loved. And the writer, Steve Levitan. And then he said, you want to add...

And we just add you to this. I don't want to hear about them anymore. That's wild. I had no idea about that. Yeah. So I said, I got to see it, which has helped. And I go, oh, I'm coming from the most competitive, toughest, funniest people in the world. Not that they weren't funny, but they're all actors. And I go, oh, there's no one like me here. You know, I had a Dana there and I had everyone better than me. Thank you, David. Yeah. And so...

No, I'm saying because he's great. And you go, wow, when I'm not in a room with Sandler, Rock, Farley, Mike Myers, Dana, and I go, these guys are just great actors and funny, but there's not one like me exactly. I could sort of jump out. George Segal said, it's four actors in a cartoon. That's what he used to say about me. And I go, thanks? You were the fonts. You guys, it was kind of cool that...

it's an observation. Yeah. Brooklyn, what was the name of yours again? Just Shoot Me. Just Shoot Me. I'm sorry. You guys also went, you were the stars, you were the Fonz's, but you had an ensemble. Yes. And so that's not like hanging out in a movie. You can't do it. You can do it on live streaming now if no one sees it, no one cares. But in those days, like,

you're hung out there, but I thought those shows were great. Yeah, people see it and they like you and your experience. I think I did know you, is it CBS Radford, right? Yeah. That's where you shot it. Same stage. So you got into it and you, somewhat hesitantly, but you jumped in. You did your best because once you say yes to something, right? Yeah, you got to try and make it good. Did you write on that? You're going to be writing just casually, but...

Yeah, no, I never was like in the room or had my name on a script. Isn't that great though? But weren't you able to go, can I do this? They give you good stuff anyway and it works anyway. That's the craziest feeling coming from SNL is having someone hand you great jokes and you're like, wait, I get to just have these? And then everyone thinks I thought of them? And then they go, how do we make these better for you? You're like, what the fuck? Oh, I don't know. We were both standups. That was a revolution for me if Bonnie Turner gave me, the church lady could say this? Wow, awesome. Yeah, it's true. It does happen at SNL. It takes a couple of years before someone gives you a great joke.

though. Well, he came out of the gate huge. Thank you, David. It's true. This is my favorite podcast. You had to work a little bit, but you get on there. No, he came out of the gate and revolutionized Saturday Night Live, but we can get to that thing. We'll get to that. In the live show, though, I did not come out of the gate strong.

But you revolutionized the thing, right? YouTube comes out, SNL's still going. Yes. And then you came in with your buddies and it went, woo, it went. It was fortuitous timing, I like to say, with the YouTube stuff. Because, you know, it started with like Albert Brooks doing short films and McKay did short films and-

It was like a long history of it at the show that we loved. Shiller Vision. Exactly. Shiller Vision's great. Even like the Eddie Murphy stuff, doing like White Like Me, where he was like walking around town. Like there was always cool pre-tapes. We just were like...

We're going to do them every week. It's hard, though. SNL Digital even got a name. Yeah. It's like an exciting idea. Yeah, and the first one was Lazy Sunday, if I'm correct. It was the first one people liked. Do you think you blew up YouTube or YouTube blew you up? I think we are responsible for YouTube and they owe us a lot of debt. I knew a guy who was trying to do YouTube and he was like six months late.

He had all the technology, the idea. Oh, he's going to do a YouTube. Yeah, YouTube. And then YouTube came out and then I was with him and he was trying to think of a name. He had Grouper and then a friend of mine renamed it Crackle in Sony bottom. Oh, yeah. I remember those. But YouTube is such a perfect name. Like DocuSign, you have to sign documents. I own DocuSign. I shouldn't be promoting my portfolio. I mean, I interact with DocuSign a lot. I do too. I think I love you. Yeah.

You know that. Danny gets a penny.

Eat a penny? What? No, you get a penny every time someone signs something. Does an angel get his wings? No, I do. So YouTube was only out about six months, right? Yeah, that sounds about right. I mean, we hadn't heard of it until someone told us they just watched Lazy Sunday on YouTube. Oh, wow. And then we were like, what's that? And then we realized, oh, someone finally thought of an actual good layout for streaming videos. Because there had been tons of...

websites trying to do it. Yeah. And especially like comedy shorts and like that kind of thing. And we would submit to websites, our, our lonely Island stuff that we were making before us, before us. Yeah. Um, and we had our own website that we like somehow finagled server space on, you know, right around broadband was starting to come in. Right. I don't know. Broadband I heard was starting to come in. Yeah. It was perfect timing. Yeah. And, uh,

you gotta keep, you know, they just eradicated measles, but we, you know, we heard of YouTube and then like the next week put all our videos on YouTube. Cause we were like, Oh, this is the best. Yeah. It finally worked. Found a spot. Yeah. You went, I just want to get the pronunciations right. It's Andy. By the way, your name was David. I want to say, listen to this thing.

That's what someone told me. Look, his name was Andy. Somebody told him that. And they called him David. No, his name was David. And my brother's name is Andy. And my name's David. You can't make this. Yeah, you could. You can make it up. Was the person who told you Wick last name Opedia? Yeah. It was Wikipedia. It was printed out. Yeah.

But I know about you. I just didn't know that. That's a tidbit. Okay, then your bandmates are made great. Akeva, Schaefer, and Yorma. And Yorma Tacone. Jeez, talk about Wikipedia over here. Akeva, Schaefer, Yorma, Tacone. Yeah.

To Coney. Yeah, with N's. But it's his fault for having that name. I was Dan Agarni for years and no one ever got it right. You were what? Dan Agarni. Dan Agarni? No one knew his name. Who's up next? The stand up? Well, by the way. Dan Agarni. I've been. Oh, you must have been. I'm Adam. Everyone thinks I'm Adam because of Sandler.

Oh yeah. Adam Sandberg. Oh, right. Andy Sandler. One time I was doing standup before I got SNL and someone literally introduced me as Adam Sandler. And everyone went, I walked out. I was like, no, no, no,

That's not my name. I'm so sorry. I also like him. I got introduced to David Bowie once. David? I got introduced. Here's my one they mess up. David Bowie. I go to the improv a couple times a week just to give them a little treat, you know? Oh, yeah. Give them a taste of the magic. They go, what do you want to say? And they go, I go, just say, because the last movie on Netflix was The Wrong Missy. I go, just say The Wrong Missy and some other shit.

And they go, got it. And they go, this guy was in the right Matilda. The quiet. And I go, why is that one so hard? They say it wrong every single time. You say it wrong too. I came up during the rough and tumble club days. My biggest intro from Tony DePaul, the Holy City Zoo, and I'm a nervous standup.

here he is, Dan O'Garney, the man who invented the blowjob. That was the first one. That was it. And you're like, I didn't ask him to say that. That's a great one. Or he'd say, some people think he's funny. I don't know about that. You know, it was rough and tumble. Yep, yep, yep. 40-seater. They're trying to nag you on the way up. 40-seater. Ha, ha, ha.

And then Rob Williams would come in, I just wanted to play. And he'd do like three hours. I'm going back to Brooklyn. I want to go back. No, let's do this Brooklyn Nine-Nine thing because he got up for an Emmy. I think he won an Emmy. Two Golden Globes. Who does his homework? I got some Globes. Back when that meant something, you know? Sure. Do you want to hear people say, don't ever talk about yourself on the podcast, but guess what? So here's what's going to happen. All right. So I'm in the audience and they go, Golden Globe.

By the way, we're back in fucking Azusa. You know, they keep the people from TV, the Golden Globes on TV. Tom Cruise is up front. I'm on the third deck where I have to take two elevators to get to the stage. They know I'm not going to win. So, and a trolley. So I'm back there and they go, but it was a harder supporting category. It was against Don Cheadle. It was against every supporting category on TV and movies. What was the category? Supporting in anything. Oh, for your show. Yeah, for Just Shoot Me. So I'm up against Gregory Peck. Ha ha ha.

Don Cheadle, a guy from ER. It's drama, comedy, everything. So I already won because I just got that far. Yeah, it's crazy. And so they go. No, but seriously, Gregory Peck, that's not a joke. Yeah, he beat me. He did 90 seconds in Moby Dick and he goes, I can't believe I'm getting it.

I worked for 96 and I'm like, no fucking shit. I slugged out 148 episodes. Anyway, and then at the Emmys they go like this. Who the fuck is David Spade? I'm Gregory Peck. I'm sorry. I just spot on. As I know Peck, that sounds like Peck. That's Peck. Everyone listening is going, is that close enough to an old person? I met him once, so what happened? So at the Emmys, they go like this.

This is supporting comedy. And they go, David, hide Pierce. And if you saw the slow motion of my shoulders go up and I went back down and then went for an applause. And I was like, did anyone fucking see that false false start? Yeah. And it's like everyone saw it. I do feel like I like it when people react negatively when they don't win. It's real. I feel like you can do it and everyone will think it's funny. But also you can just be honest about that. Yeah.

I would just mouth what the fuck. Yeah, what the fuck? At least you're doing something comedy. How many times were you nominated? You won twice. I was, for Brooklyn Nine-Nine, that was the only nomination and win was the show and me that year and then never again nominated. That's weird. Yes. Politics. Why were you bad after that? I just didn't care. As I poured. Yeah.

Your nickname was Phoned In on the set? I just didn't care. Yeah. You won. On the call sheet it said Phoned In. It just turned into a paycheck. I was like, fuck this and everything about it. Have you seen these shows like you noticed the Emmys because they sort of lost a little bit over the years but let's say it's still exciting so they...

They win something and someone that wins on a show or a comedy, the next year they get canceled. And you go, that's a mind fuck. Like you just won. You go, at least we have a little job security here. You're talking about the show got canceled. Like the show. Yeah. You like somebody wins or the show wins and then the show gets canceled. And you go, what happened in that? Like, I guess it wasn't good. Right. You go, I'm not only are we not up for one.

Now we're canceled. One year later. Do you think that they like hide that Emmy in the closet and like shame, shame it? It's sad. Yeah. I would take it out on you. Oh, are you happy Emmy? You happy? You ain't all that Emmy. You got the Emmy curse. You stay in there. There's a little Nicolas Cage sneaking in there for your fans. Wow. Oh yeah. We can talk plenty about that. We can talk about that. It's hard to go. You have so much, but the cool thing is you, you,

Did 152 episodes Your first kind of thing I do my homework I love it I went to state school I didn't know that I did 152 episodes I'm a Bay Area guy like you So I slow down for you I know that's true But not anymore Or do you still stay up there? I have a house up there In what area? We don't have to use this Marin County Oh I love Marin That's stunning What's the address again? My wife grew up there We can do a little childhood stuff for a sec So what town did you grow up in? In Berkeley Oh

You look so disappointed. Love Berkeley. Used to go to the track meets there. My first standup set was on Telegraph Avenue at the Los Alamandra Cafe. Oh, that rules. Hippie place. He's really hating this. So were you kind of raised like a hippie or just- Yeah, a little bit. A little bit. How many kids? Just you were the only one? I have two older sisters. Interesting. Yeah.

Baby Andy. Sandberg's got cool hair, which always infuriated me, but. Do you think I do right now? It's pretty cool still, yeah. Oh, sick. No, you're a good looking dude. You have hair and you have a jaw. Yeah. I need a lot of work up here. And I, even Burt Lancaster told me, how can you be a movie star? You've got no chin. That,

That was a quote from Burt Lancaster to me. What does he gain by saying that to you? Exactly. He got mad because- He was a dick back then. I jumped out of my chair so he could sit in my chair. He was 73. Yeah. And he's coming over. I jumped out. He thought I patronized him. You motherfucker. Where was this? Jump out of a chair for me again. This was-

tough guys year before I got SNL I played the parole officer with Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas ah okay but anyway you know when I beat Greta Thunberg at the Emmys she goes how dare you good one how dare you I swung back for that weak joke but go ahead how dare you it was a good it was a good one who's gonna be married to that woman how dare you not clean your plate how dare you we're on she doesn't have to get married to find happiness I just wanna point that out that's true

Did you have like an artistic childhood? Was there stuff going on in the house with your mom and dad? How did you and your eighth grade buddies get so into comedy? We just were. I don't know. You just met these guys like soulmates, right? Yeah, actually, I just found a letter I wrote myself. It was like a third grade exercise when I was eight where they're like, you know, say, write a letter to yourself what you think you'll be in 20 years. My mom just sent this to me. Wow.

From the basement. And it was like, I'm going to be a famous comedian and I'll be married and I'm going to have two kids. And I was just like, oh shit, it's all exactly what happened. Oh, cool. Wow. That's pretty cool. How old were you? Eight. I don't know why. Honestly, it started not to blow smoke, but I used to sneak into the TV room in our house.

and watched the Saturday night's main event, the WWF wrestling thing. And it was only on once a month. He wasn't on that. And every other time it wasn't on, it was SNL. So by accident, I started watching SNL because I was like, oh, it's not on, but what's this? And it was right when it was your first cast. And that's when I got into the show. So you were like 12 or something or 10, 12. I mean, honestly, I might've been like eight. Fucking shit. I think.

Wow, that's cool. I'm 44. I'm glad it didn't fuck up. So I didn't make you want to quit. Like, that guy is such a dick. No, I was like, you can do this? This is allowed? I want to be like that guy I'm pointing at you right now for people because you can't see us, but I'm pointing right at you, Dana. We can never forget that. I mean, it'll hit me sometimes if you're up there in a costume on a stage somewhere doing something, you go,

this is my job, really. Also, somebody's watching. Right now I'm working. I mean, you guys probably grew up watching SNL. It probably wasn't that different from how it was for me and my ex-ex-ex. For me to run into Dan Aykroyd at the show was just nerve-wracking. Yeah, and then he talks to you about his vodka for like an hour and a half.

Yeah. Well, you don't have to leave the show. You talk about investing. He was an investor early on. It's insane to bump in. Anyone from that original cast, it's crazy. When they walk in your office, have you ever seen them walk in the offices? Yes.

And Ackroyd came in, knock, knock. I know. All right, sir. Fair enough, sir. That's right. He's good about it too. Ackroyd's very like, I liked what you did. It was very funny. And you're like, holy shit, this is crazy. Every time I run into him, he goes, you know, the church lady was kind of a, you know, sir, it was sort of a perfect comic character. If I see him at the 50th, I'm waiting for it. I go, hey, Dan, what about the- Did you go to the 40th? I was at the 40th. Yeah. Fun, right? I did a video with Sandler.

We did a thing about everyone breaking. Oh, you did? Yeah. They put it in shit can alley, but it played well online. Yeah.

Shit Can't Alley? First of all, that should be your next musical video, Shit Can't Alley. Do you mean you presented it from a bad spot on the stage? No, no. I did not make that up. People used to talk about at the table read, if you were in the second half of the read, in the middle of the second half, that's Shit Can't Alley where nothing plays because everyone's exhausted. Oh, I never heard that. I love it. And then once everyone knows there's one or two left, they laugh again. Yeah.

Yeah, it's not bad to be the Amberian. But you and Sandler, it got on, right? Of course. It aired and it played well, but it was like people were partying already and drinking and walking around. Well, I think Mike and I went on last, didn't we? Wayne's World? Were you dead last? I thought we were dead last. That's great. We'll see, but that's a good spot. Then they're waking up going to close over. I said we should be either really angry or really flattered. I said that to Mike right before we went out. I think probably a little of both. It worked out. You know what was interesting? What?

I probably shouldn't say this. Say anything you want to me or David. It was such a comedy room and people are so fucking like SNL competitive that like the monologue opening thing was Timberlake and Fallon doing like SNL through the years and it was like a full on crowd pleasing showstopper. Yeah. And half the room was kind of like arms crossed like, uh-huh.

I was like, Jesus, I don't want anything I do to air in this room. We're all wounded little clowns. If he does good, then I don't do good. And everyone at home was like, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen. Dude, I was doing buh-bye and Jane Curtin was yelling, fuck you to me from the front row. Yeah, take your own advice and get out. Jane Curtin.

Of all nice people. Jane Curtin was cool. She's wonderful. Will you be at the 50th? We ask everybody. If I'm invited, I got to go, right? You're going to be invited. You never know at this point. I heard there's no plus ones. That's always weird. So my wife's not coming? Wait, that won't go down well. I heard there's no plus ones. You know, you weren't at Vanity Fair the other night, right? I didn't go because of the knee.

Oh, the knee. I just want you to know I was invited though. Oh yeah. Dana, this Vanity Fair thing. I should have brought fucking Dana. Oh, I couldn't. That's the point. I couldn't bring anyone. I was invited for 25 years, never went. So finally they stopped inviting me. Oh God. For people at home, they hear about that Vanity Fair party, like the Oscar party, right? Yeah. So there's one at Gaio's after that, which is really fun. And that's,

At least I know him, so it's easier. But Vanity Fair, it's not an audition, but you just hear when, oh, if you want to go to the Vanity Fair. I always thought I was always invited. And then one year I go, hey, I didn't hear about the Vanity Fair. I think I want to go to that and bring my buddy. And they go, it's just so tricky this year. I'm like, oh, what does that mean? They're like, I can't go? And they're like, it's not that. It's just that you can't right now. And I'm like, so it is that. And then, but they, for people listening, you know, you see pictures of the Vanity Fair party, but-

It's a fun party, but they stagger you. Yes. So you either go like Apatow. I didn't know anyone and I got no plus one. And I said, I think I'm going to go. I get home from my shows. I just want to go at least do something. I can't stay all the way awake until a guy's party, but I go, I'll just go to this one. Oh, wait, what's my time? Yes. And so I got 9.30, which is pretty good. 9.30 is not bad. This is all embarrassing, Dana. It's the cool group in life. It's cool kids. And they go-

You're right between Gigi Hadid and Harvey Weinstein. So they let him out, just to furloughed him. He's there. I'm like, this is the only thing you get out for? It's cruel and unusual not to let that man go to that party. So I go embarrassingly. But 930 is not bad. One year I got,

I got midnight and no plus one. I didn't go, too embarrassing. - Now you got fly on the wall, so it's a hit podcast. - No, they know. - But back to our guest. - No, I wanna tell him, 'cause I wanna say, 'cause he's done this, it's embarrassing. That when you go and you go, you know, you get out by yourself and I say, I hit Apatow and I say, are you there? And he goes, oh, I got here at five. I go, five.

He went to, how does he sound? Do it again. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Let's give him a head call. Everyone has a little Apatow. You cop an attitude and just say the name. I'm Jeff Apatow. How are you guys doing? I'm Jeff Apatow. That's pretty funny what you did. That was really funny. Yeah, that's good. He does say that. He does say that's funny a lot. So anyway, I get there. I get the press line. I hit right when all the models hit and they're all 50 feet tall. And I go, can I just cut in front of you guys and just...

And they're like, is someone talking? And so I go, I remember I went up to Jessica Alba. I go, oh, I thought you were Nancy Pelosi. That was my joke to her. And she goes, fuck you. And I go, no, she's right behind you. And I go, because it's funny. Because one time she kicked me in the ass at the Golden Globes and she said, hey, fats.

And I turn around. I don't even know her. Nancy Pelosi? No. I know. I'm sorry. I knew. I knew. That's funny. And I fell for it. Hey, vets. Could I do my name? No. I saw Nancy Pelosi at Wendy's once. No. I tried to get you back. Nancy. Nancy.

I bought it. Nancy Pelosi always looks like she just sat on something cold and wet. That's not. Sorry. That's my Nancy Pelosi joke. We'll finish this. No, there's no story. I was just saying it's embarrassing and I went there and that was it, I guess. Wait, why did Alba call you fats? She did because she thought it was funny and I thought it was funny. Oh, okay. If you really were fat, that would be insensitive. Yeah, I just, no, I didn't care. It was back in the dark angel days.

Oh, we're talking Dark Angel in her album? Well, that's when I used to get to go to the Golden Globes. So this time, I was just getting her back because sometimes if I see her, she says something like that. Understood. You guys have kind of like a... She was funny, yeah. You have carpet rapport. It was nothing mean. It was just being stupid. Carpet rapport. That is a thing that if you go to a lot of award shows and award show parties, you do start having like award season friends that you only see at events. And it's a very strange phenomenon. You're like,

but then you like and you never see him again you're never like we should exchange numbers you want to hear something weird for 10 seconds just see them at that I went in 91 I think because of Wayne's World so I look over I think it's Juliette Lewis we'll put it in later hey thanks I said Juliette Lewis and Brad Pitt I think it was her when they were dating I see them off the side and I can see that they're talking to each other whether they should come over and talk to me oh that's like nervously coming over

And did they? Mm-hmm. I go, we're just going to leave now. And he goes, that's a good plan. I like that plan. Let's face it, man. We're mama god damn has been. Sorry. Once upon a time in Hollywood. Yeah, I've seen it. Oh, yeah. That was Brad Pitt. You were in there, right? Eleven times.

Yeah, neither. No. 11 times. What I'm interested in right now about this podcast, I'm interested in Andy and his buddies. They make their thing and then they come to SNL and your first boom and then you did come up

with Lazy Sunday at SNL. Yeah. So how did, walk me through that process. You meet Lauren, you tell her. What was your first meeting with Lauren and the writers? What was that vibe? Well, we got the show actually because we were writing on the MTV Movie Awards and Fallon hosted. I do owe a great deal to Fallon. Hey, what's up, man? I know, he's awesome. We love him. I did him in my audition because I knew he did Sandler in his and it was very winky. Oh,

Oh, wow. What was your take on Fallon? It was Jimmy Fallon at a funeral. Oh my God, so sad, right? I'm so sad. What a tragedy.

Anyway, here's the next album. I just took him to the anthro. But yeah, he's, he's, he was great and he was super great to us and we got some stuff in the show and he, and, and Higgins and Shoemaker were there for, for people who don't know who are SNL producers and a bunch of the writers and we kind of hit it off with everybody. So they were like, you guys should audition.

So, um... How did you audition? Yeah, what do you do? Were you Andy Samberg or with your buddies or...? I did a solo and I did... I had been doing stand-up for like five or six years, seven years. Really? I didn't know that. Yeah. Where were you playing mostly? Well, I started off... I was going to NYU for a couple of years and I started doing just bringer shows in New York. So like Cellar and Boston Comedy Club when it was called that. And Gotham, all those kinds of places. And then I moved out here and...

Like the best I ever got to was doing a couple of shows here and there at the improv.

And then I did Premium Blend on Comedy Central. That was kind of the high watermark for me. Yeah, that's a good one. But so I did some of that stuff. And then they were like, but you need characters and impressions. And I was like, I don't have. You didn't really? Not really. We just made up a bunch of shit like the weeks leading up to it. And those guys helped me, Keeve and Jorm. And it went well. So they said, you need to come back. And then they also had Jorm audition. And Keeve did a meeting with Lauren. And we all submitted a writing packet together.

All three writing and you got a feature performer? Yeah. And then they got hired as writers. They're writers. It was a crazy dream where all of a sudden you were like- But all three of you guys you get on is very- Well, to come in with your buddies from eighth grade and now we're all on Saturday Night Live. And we had already been, I mean, we'd known each other a long time, so we had shorthand and we trusted each other. But it was also like we had spent the last five years in LA making stuff. So we had kind of a-

a rhythm of what we were doing already. And a TV show on YouTube, basically. Kind of, yeah. I mean, it didn't, people didn't really know about it the same way they do now, but it was, it was the same thing in that we had gotten a lot of the, the bad stuff out of our system. You had to practice. Well, the thing is, is that,

And for young people today, it just, I say, well, just do a YouTube channel, do this and that. And then you get two views or five. And then you're reading about someone else with, you know, Rihanna has 500 million and to keep yourself going. You guys obviously just loved it. Yeah. Even though it wasn't getting tremendous traction. No, it was also just a different time. Like YouTube really didn't exist yet when we were doing it. So you didn't have that compare and despair thing. For us, it was like, let's just make stuff until we feel like we're good and it'll, it'll,

work itself out one way or another but we never thought we'd get SNL that was like my big only dream and I was like I was just Fallon saw something I even went and like did the Groundlings like intro audition for the classes and stuff and just tanked it laughing

I just wanted it too bad, you know? I was like, my brain went a million different places. Isn't that the tough part of shows? Try not to try. Because whenever you push, it never works. And yet you want to be present. It's trying to catch the wind. It's always there. But isn't it great when you're in the pocket and you don't give a fuck? Yeah. Like by year, I don't know what year did you kind of go,

I'm not nervous on stage. I'm relaxed. Was it right away or was it... It took me like, I think, 80 shows. I think it was probably by like your four or five. Yeah. It's once you feel like you're not going to get fired. Yeah. I think is truly it. And then you get genuinely loose and then people relax because you're relaxed. Did you get picked up every year where it was like pretty much on...

Because I had to go home in May and he wouldn't decide. Yeah, you guys had a crazy stretch. I had to check out of my apartment. I had to get out and then- Well, because the old guys, my team didn't leave. I stayed until 93. So you overlapped and that was a reason. But once we all cleared out, I think David had a pretty hot two years. Yeah. When you guys were all there at the same time, like the two different generations. Yeah, we were. And you look at it, it's so rare in the history of the show where you look at both-

generations and it's fucking stacked in both yeah that's the craziest part to me about when you guys were 90 to 93 that I feel like that was the most loaded because we had David and Farley and Sandler and Chris Rock and they're coming up and doing stuff Adam's getting the guitar he's going and then we had Phil Hartman and myself and Mike Myers yeah

That's a lot of people making shit that, like, ended up on a T-shirt, you know? Yeah. Well, we talked with Lorne about that, and it was like, if it's a team, you know, you've got this guy can start or this guy can start. So we had Toontz is the cat, even, with Jack Hanna. Throw in Toontz's. But, yeah, even just, like, throw in Deep Thoughts. Yeah. Which was a constant on the show and super funny. Constant bumper that always was... And Mike would throw down his sprockets and or Wayne's World, you know? Sandler would do Opera Man. You know, it got...

Greatest hits every show practically. But anyway, enough about that era. This is called Dana and David. So I want to hear, if we can, tactically. You go in to Rockefeller Center. Yes. What are you feeling? And do you have a private meeting with Lorne or with the three of you or what? You mean when I got hired? When you got hired. First time you went and talked to Lorne. They had me and Bill fly out.

Bill Hader? Yes, sorry. Me and Bill Hader to fly out to, I'm told to meet with Lorne. Be like, you auditioned twice. They're interested. They want you to come meet with Lorne. Me and Bill sit next to each other on a flight from LA to New York.

Marcy Klein had already told him that me and him got the show. Oh, wow. Cool. No one told me, and Bill, bless his heart, pretended the entire flight that he didn't know so he didn't be the one to tell me. He wanted me to have my moment where I got to actually find out. That's nice. We love that. He makes fun of me now because we talk all the time. He's like, you were like, oh, man, I wonder if we're going to get it. Fucking idiot. I knew. But, yeah.

But so we get there, he goes in for his meeting, which is just saying hi to Lauren because he knows he's got the show. Then I go in and I talk to Lauren, you know,

maybe 10 minutes and it's Lorne so he gives you nothing mentions nothing about anything was there anyone in the room no just me and him he never stands up and leans over the table and goes congratulations you've got the job he literally cuts a cigar or here it's not like a real cigar now you must do a Lorne or a Lorne impression it doesn't matter how good it is it's not good but it's basically him being like so

do you think you'd be willing to cut your hair? I'm like, it was really crazy long. I was like, oh yeah, I'll shave my head if you want, whatever you want. And I was like on coke. But that's a very specific Lauren. And he goes, uh, and you think you could do this? You think you could live in New York? And I was like, oh yeah, I've lived here before. I lived here for two years recently. He's like, okay, well we're going to all go out to dinner. So you should come. And I was like, okay. And I walked out and I looked around and it was like, Jen and shook us were there. And I was like,

And they were like, so? And I was like, I don't know. What happened? And they're like, you got it. So they were the ones who told me. But Lord never went like, we're hiring you. Those words never came out. I never heard that either. Yeah. I don't think he ever does. Some lieutenant comes up and- Yes. And they're like- You got this show. And I immediately fell on the floor and started crying. So where did you go to dinner? Do you remember? Or so. And how many people were in that dinner? Because that's kind of a- It might've been-

A big thing to be invited. Orso was a big one for Tuesday night dinners when I was there. I remember wherever we went, it was in that theater district area. And it was me and Bill and a few other people. And Conan was there at a different table. And they were like, oh, Conan, you should meet. These are going to be two new cast members. And I was just like...

Like, freaking the fuck out. We're like, my life just got so cool. Yeah, it's a cool factor all over the place. He would come up to us and go, well, well, if it's not shitty, crappy, and cruddy. Oh, yeah, and being all tall, too. Yeah, so tall. So tall.

So alpha dominated. That's an animated show. When you did impressions, like you said, like I didn't really do impressions too many, but when they, did they assign you one or say, Hey, can you play this? Or did you do Marky Mark? Uh, that one, all my impressions happened on accident. Yeah. Like I think, um, Emily Spivey and someone else were the first ones to be like, Oh, we put you in this thing as Nick Cage. And I was like, I don't do Nick Cage, but so I just worked on it and it ended up being something I found out that I could kind of do. Um,

And Wahlberg, I was doing some bit with Jonah Hill, actually. We were hanging out in the summertime and he's like, you kind of sound like Mark Wahlberg right now. And I was like, ooh, anything to get on the fucking show. Yeah. So I tried. I tried that. I wrote it with Steel. But say hello to your mother for me is the funniest thing to say. Which character says that? He does Wahlberg. You're with a donkey or something. Yeah, he talks to animals. That was Steel's idea.

But you found that rhythm, that hook. Yeah. It's funny. Obviously, you're one of the greatest of all time at the impressions. And I'm close with people also who are like Wig and Fred and Bill. I mean, it's a whole other skill set. And I've never considered myself good at it. But...

There's like a few times in my life where I have found it and I'm like, oh, this must be what it's like for them all the time. Like it is really fun to do it. And it becomes its own language and it becomes its own character. Well, that's the thing. It becomes a character. So I know many, many incredibly accurate impressionists that aren't intrinsically funny. But since you're a comedian, when you did it, it was funny. And also it was accurate enough that-

it represented Mark Wahlberg. Sure, sure. So it worked completely. How many times did you do that? It was kind of a hit. I think only twice. Really? Yeah, that was- And you did it to Mark Wahlberg. Well, he came on the show and to basically, he did a whole thing where he was like,

I guess they had asked him about it and he said something negative. And then I think him and his team were like, oh, we don't want people thinking I'm being too much of a bummer about this. So he came on and like pretended like he was going to kick my ass. Yes. And it was very pleasant. It was totally fine. It was the episode that Palin was on too. It was a crazy episode. Oh, big one. That's a score. Yeah. Your time was pretty heady, you know? Yeah. That election year and-

Your bandmates, so to speak. Yeah. It was interesting for us. We were there for two election years, I think. And our joke was always like, oh, well, we're not going to have anything on the show this year because it became so political. And we just didn't really engage with that. We just wanted to make goofy shit. But now I think for everyone who works there now, that's just every year.

Yeah, it's just nonstop. Politics, you mean? Mm-hmm. Like, it always has to be, like, about something and saying something and addressing what's happening. I think they have less opportunity to just do kind of weird ideas. The world changed. Yeah, and it's probably going to change back. I mean, that's how it's historically happened. I like acid humor the best. I like silliness the best, if I have to say. Madness. And coming full circle back to you. Ha ha ha!

I'm just curious.

Like that's your first SNL? Is that the first one or not the first one? That was the second one. We had made one short that aired before that called Lettuce, which was- Bomb. No, I'm kidding. Hey, come on. Hey, David. That's kind of mean. He's the one that said it. He's our guest. What are you talking about? No, he said that he's our guest. But that was as part of SNL, not a pre-SNL. No, it aired on SNL. It was a Will Forty idea that we did with him and we shot it on like a home camera and it aired and we were like, holy shit, that aired.

And then Lazy Sunday was the second one that aired, but that wasn't until the Christmas episode of our first season. Did you show it to Lauren when you got it completely finished? No, I think the first time he saw it, I think was at Dress. And I assume you guys knew you had a hit with that. No, no. It felt irresistible to me. Once it aired, we were like, oh shit, this is, I think people really liked it. The crowd liked it. Yeah. Yeah. It was a new feeling. And you know,

You came out real hot. I don't really remember your beginning part, but I just remember knowing that you were there and you were good. No, it was worked in, wormed in over time. We had been there up till Christmas to that point, you know? And we hadn't, we had gotten stuff on and we were getting along with everybody, but we weren't like, we're killing this. Blowing up. Yeah. So for us, it was still the mentality of,

"Oh, it's gonna air." Like it was that, it was still that early. - Yeah, you don't wanna jinx it. - They think it's gonna air. And then the crazy thing that happened with "Lazy Sunday" was what you brought up was it all of a sudden became a news item 'cause everyone was like, "There's a website called YouTube." And then every article about it was a picture of me and Parnell. - Yes, you kind of represented YouTube. When you do this, do you say, does Shoemaker or someone say, "You should put a cast member in it with you," or is that your idea?

What do you mean? Like it's you and Chris Parnell. Oh, yeah. Well, in the beginning...

We like Keeve and Yorm shot one. That was an idea that we all had when I was, I was in LA for an off week taking generals. Yeah. Time well spent. Take those generals. Generals. General meaning. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, you're just generals now? Yeah. I came back and they had made something and I was like, oh shit, it's that idea. It's so funny. And we showed it to Shoemaker and Higgins and they were like,

You guys just went and made this? And we're like, yeah. And they're like, do stuff like this for the show, but put the cast in it. That was literally what they said. Yeah. They'd say put the cast in it because you're too new. Did Parna, did you have to coach him at all? Because if someone cast me in that, I don't know how you...

You double tracking to get, because it sounds like real rap. All your stuff does to me. Yeah. So what do you double track? You put effects on. It just has this muscularity. Yeah. I mean, we had been making songs for fun and we had shot a few music videos for them. That was like something we had sort of started doing before SNL.

And we're like, oh yeah, we could try a song here. That might be fun. And we knew Parnell quote unquote rapped or frapped as we call it. Fake rapping because he used to do it on Update.

Like he did a thing, I think like Britney Spears one week was the musical guest and he like did a rap dedicated to Britney Spears that we thought was super funny. What a score for him to be in that though. Yeah, but it was also awesome for us because he was fucking hilarious. Like as soon as it starts, you're like, oh my God, Parnell is so in. He dedicates his brain to it. Like him and Forte both have that weird like gene of a performer where like,

they will never break no matter what. Like they're so in it. They're really serious. Yeah, Forte is. There's like a slight psychosis to it that makes you laugh so hard because you can tell they're actually lunatics deep down and you love it. There's something a little different. Yeah, something's wrong. Yes. Forte had his own lane. He did some brilliant. Yes. Just only he could do. I would say he probably of everyone, and this is saying a lot because I loved almost everyone I worked with there,

At the table, he was the person I was always the most excited to see what he was going to do because it was always so weird. He was so weird. Yeah. I remember the potato chip one where he came in and screamed. Oh, potato chips in all time. I told him about that and he goes, you saw the potato chip one? I just watched it one night on television. I go, yeah. You know, comedians, we know where all the tricks are. But, you know, to get surprised by another comedian and the commitment, then you have to just commit. Yeah.

And you give Lauren credit for seeing a weird bit and it even bombs miserably. And he goes, put it on. Yeah. And it takes balls to go, we're teaching the audience this is funny. We're not saying, oh, it didn't do as good. You know, you just go, no, this is what should be out there. Lauren has that gear. Can I, Wayne's World story? Yeah.

I sometimes do stuff that I don't explain. So anyway, I was doing Garth's make in a mechanical hand. Hope you've seen the movie. But in my mind, the mechanical hand is going to strangle Rob Lowe. Yes. So Rob Lowe comes in before it's finished, so then I beat the shit out of it. So it's laying there at the previews.

And I kind of liked it because it was my shtick, but I'm like, okay, I get it. You guys want to. And Lauren's like, it's one of those things, you know, like 20 years from now, you're like glad it's there. Yeah. So Lauren does have that quirky side to it. Isn't that We Fear Change? It's that moment, right? Yeah. We Fear Change. I know the film. God, I love that. How do you react to people coming up to you?

the way you would have come up to someone else you know like to come up to you i can't believe i'm me andy samberg you know that the airport or whatever and they're usually very sweet and stuff it's it's an out-of-body experience isn't it it's trippy i mean the first time it happens you're like fucking i did it you know yeah yeah um and then i don't know i always just think about

And I truly like you guys are on this list. When I was a teenager in my early twenties, if I saw someone from SNL in real life, I would lose my shit. So I try to always remember that I felt like that. And the idea that somebody could feel that way about me is super exciting.

I advise people. It never quite hits you the same way though. Like when I see Ackroyd or I saw Dana, those guys, it's never the same as when people see me and I go, oh, that's not that exciting. When they saw me, but I go, I see these guys. You know what I mean? Yeah, but you gotta remember, like when it's whatever there's, everyone says this about SNL, right? It's like when kids and teens are a certain age, that cast is their cast. And it means way more to them than even the original cast, which feels impossible to us. Movies too. When you grew up on movies. 12 and 13. Yeah.

I've seen the acro after Blues Brothers and shit. Yeah. Oh my God. But dude, Wayne's World and Tommy Boy are those for me. Way more than Blues Brothers. Nothing against Blues Brothers. No, it's just the age you were at. Those were my years where I was like, holy shit, I can't believe that they're getting to do this. And it makes me feel like I have a place on earth. Like literally. Because you want to do that stuff. Yeah. And I still quote those movies like every week. Yeah, that's nice. I can't believe you remember We Fear Change.

Yeah, dude. Did Garth say that? Garth said that. We fear change. We fear change. What about this pop star movie? Oh, yeah. I think I told that whole Vanity Fair story because Beaver was there. I think that's what I was leading up to. Is that right? And he was wearing a blanket. Remember that? He was wearing a poncho. Did you see that? I wasn't there. Let's look at a clip. Let's go to the phones. Beaver, but it wasn't really a Beaver parody, but they marketed it as a Beaver parody. I like Beaver.

I like Bieber as well. And we met him a bunch of times at SNL. I'll say this. Super talent. I mean... Obviously, in that moment...

It was like he was one of the biggest pop stars in the world. Of course. He still is. So we're making a movie about that world. So there are definitely jokes in it that are inspired by him. Sure. And you exaggerate a situation like he's a big pop star. What's the funniest version of everything doesn't mean it's about Bieber. Correct. It's about. But there's also a lot of stuff about a lot of other people in it too. And then a lot of stuff we just kind of made up. Yeah. I will say this. Judd, who bless his heart.

Is the reason we got to make that movie. Oh, that's right. Fully produced it, fully ushered it, told us like, hey, if you guys wanted to make a movie like that, I'll produce it and just gave us basically a free pass to make a movie. I think he was in line with Universal more about making the marketing feel a little more Bieber leaning. And we were like, this is Judd. He doesn't fucking miss. So whatever you guys want to do. And then we ate shit at the box office.

ate a whole big pile of shit on a movie that's that is funny though that's a very colorful way to put it thanks but I've been in a couple of stinkers I'll tell you what it wasn't because it was the marketing or the Bieber stuff it was just like people didn't want to go to the theater but also but now hasn't it referenced it still sorry isn't it kind of a cult film in a way is it like the people are going to love it are going to be quoting it and possessed by it I'm assuming I mean most of my favorite comedies didn't do well in theaters

Wayne's World obviously is an exception. And, you know, there's exceptions. There's Anchorman, which is one of my all-time favorites that did really well. But generally speaking, you know, like we were kind of like riding Spinal Tap's coattails. And when it came out, I just kept reading stuff about how when Spinal Tap came out, it was in like six theaters or something. Yeah. There was like Wet Hot American Summer. There's a bunch of ones. Oh, yeah. That's the greatest. That's right. That's right.

Jeez, you know my whole- You were in Spinal Tap? Andy Samberg is interviewing me today. I was in Spinal Tap, the mime waiter with Billy Crystal. That's right. It's super fun. Oh, wow. How fun. But to me, that movie was, to your point, that was sort of like, God, they can make a movie like that? It's like the first mock documentary that I'd seen is like, this is so cool. It's one high. Have you watched that movie anytime recently? No.

Maybe not in the last couple of years. It's crazy how well it holds up. Like just the pace of it. And it doesn't seem like it's rushing at all. They're not pushing. Yeah, yeah. But it doesn't waste a second of your time. Like it's just like type it, type it, type it. Every joke is funny and they get out and it moves and the story makes sense and you actually kind of care in the end. Paul and I talked like Christopher Guest. We're like,

three years every time we talked and we actually played blackjack at harrah's we were playing and we we just did it going totally like this well i'll give you i'll give you i'm supposed to take your call and you want me to take a call and try to do it is real enough that they maybe believe it when i did uh coneheads put the applause thank you with michael mckeon i'd ask him on spinal tap and conan's after you know it came out was probably better than spinal tap

Anyway. Conant's was great. Yes. Conant's had so many...

Funny people in it and it never just gelled perfectly. Well, I love anything where they're called coneheads and their heads look like cones. I always liked that nail on the head. Maybe it was too on the money. I auditioned for Spinal Tap. You might find this interesting. I came into Rob Reiner and the whole cast. You did? Yeah, to play the drummer or something. Great. And then I go, this is nerve wracking. You guys are all friends and I'm just walking in here. And so they all go, oh, we get that. They all just immediately left the room.

They just got out of the room. I'm waiting there five minutes and they come back in. They go, oh, we're a little nervous. How long have you been in here? I think they felt sorry for me so they gave me the mime thing. Oh, dude, this guy was in Grown Ups 2.

Was I ever. The cheerleader scene, which is hysterical. That was a good girl. That was a fun day. That was a great thing to use guys like you where not to waste your time. It was like one bit funny and get out. I mean, yeah, that's the thing too that I know you know about once Sandler likes you and puts you in stuff, he'll be like, just come do a thing. You're like, okay. We'll figure it out later. Yeah.

He has a very sweet whispering thing. So we're going to do a thing and you'll be like with a bunch of suds on you and stuff. You're going to be so funny. There he is. Adam has a lot of rhythm. The best. Yeah, the best. A lot of rhythms to him. He's in Hotel Translating. We should talk about some of these monster, monster things. You were in the fourth one, right?

Yes, Andy. Yeah. Were you? Yeah. Was Selena? Yeah. Oh, Adam wasn't. Correct. Oh, that's right. Yeah. You've been in four. We've been in four together. We've been in the- I was in two. By the way. Trenches of hotel rooms. By the way, that is like the true like-

business joy of when Sandler likes you. Oh my God. He called me after we did, that's my boy. And he called me after that. I was like, Hey, we're doing this animated thing. And there's a goofy guy. He's the only human. You're going to be that guy. And I was like, okay, thanks. I'm man. And then like four movies later, it pays off. I'm just like, okay. I have a story about that day. Andy, unfortunately. Okay. You have the floor on hotel Transylvania. So do you remember this? The first table read at Sony, uh,

Yeah. And Amy Pascal was there. Yeah. And it wasn't Selena. Who was Mavis? I truly have no idea. Miley Cyrus. Whoa, really? And she was a half hour late. And it was me, Sandler, you, everyone was there waiting. Yeah. And they're like, and it was dead silent. Cause you know, Amy is the president of Sony. Comes in,

Okay, we got a call. She's on the 405. She's getting off at Sawtelle. Everyone's like, Sawtelle. She's still not here. And it was like, she comes in, hey, sorry. And then sits down, rifles to the script. Like, I don't know if it's a cold read. I was like, first of all, I love Miley Cyrus. First of all, she's a great singer. She's unbelievable. I just saw her do a, like a prayer live with her cowboy hat on. She's a great singer. This was just an off thing because she did the table read.

And the movie obviously went fine. Yeah. But they got Selena. I don't remember that. Right after. That's so weird. I don't know if Miley decided not to do it or it just was not a perfect fit. But Selena is obviously unbelievable and great. And she was

Yeah. I only met her twice along the way because we don't do that much. You know, we don't shoot them all together. I mean, I've never been in the room with her for anything but press. I know, we did press, yeah. We do all the press together and it's like, hey, this is fun. Yeah. This is a bunch of nice people. Went to Cancun. Didn't we go somewhere before? Yes. That was fun. Dude, that was crazy. The Sony like retreat. Uh-huh.

That was nuts. And then my wife and I were like, oh, we're going to go to Tulum. Yeah. We're already here. Yeah, you're in Mexico. Go ahead, Dana. Oh, I just wanted to, because I know we have our producer, Greg Holson.

Gave us a list. A super fan, the huge, obviously, Dick in a Box. We can't get through all of them, but Dick in a Box with Justin. Also Dancing with Beyonce. Oh, yeah, single ladies. Bobby Moynihan. Single ladies. So if you want to talk about those quickly. I mean, Dick in a Box was- You have to go to Beyonce or does Marcy or does someone go to her? We wrote it, me and Bobby, I think.

I might be getting that wrong, but I think that was it. And I think we knew Justin was around and could do it. And then I think it was Justin that went and talked to Beyonce about it because we were like, well,

He's very famous and she's very famous. So that would probably go better. She'll see his DM. And also like, it's him being like, I'm going to be an Alia Tard. Like we're celebrating you, whatever it is. But she was delightful. She's such a sweet, wonderful person in my limited interaction with her. But that one was, that one was fun. Cause we just were like, there's no way people are going to be mad at this. It's too funny. It's great. She rolls with it and it's all,

And having her in it. Yes. And then that's probably a blow up on video. Also her doing that song, like her performance of that song that night on the show is one of the most incredible performances. It's hard. I mean. Yes. And they're in like giant heels and just fucking destroying. Like her and Prince, I think are the two people that.

in my time there where I was like, I don't understand what's happening right now. It's so impressive. She seems like a very hard worker from like early age of like busting up and gives a hundred percent in every performance. She's a killer. That song, check on it. She has so many words in it. There's a couple of songs where I go, how does she, I mean, to do a whole concert and she has so much to do and dance and sing and costume. Her last album was incredible. And everyone's in love with her. Yeah. Um,

And then, you know, Dick in a Box. Beyonce, if you'd ever like to come on the podcast, you're always welcome. Obviously, everyone likes you here. Go ahead. Yeah. Dick in a Box. Dick in a Box. You know, it was fine. We just kind of threw it together. Any problems with that? That was the first one that went kind of sexual or art, right? Or that hard. Because Dick in a Box was like on the edge, right? Did censor people give you any? We did the one with Natalie Portman at the end of the previous year. And it was filthy, but it was all bleeped.

But that was all her. Oh, it was all bleeped. That was all her. People really liked that one too. What was that one? It was just her rapping real filthy, basically. She loved Lil' Kim and told us she wanted to do one, and we were like, okay. How great. And you bleeped all the words out.

- Yeah, a lot of bleeps. I mean, that was the fun of getting to do so much pre-tape as we ended up. There was not a lot of bleeps before us, I don't think. - When you do Dick in a Box to the audience, it says Dick in a Box. - No, I think it was bleeped in. - Oh no, really? Even for the- - 'Cause it's live. - Oh yeah, yeah. - Yeah. - So what part is bleeped?

The word dick. Yeah, Dana. So you can't say dick, okay. You can say box. Interesting you bring this up though, Dana. Dick in a, and you wouldn't know what it meant. It could be Dick Wilson. It could be dick in your pants, like a medical thing. Two things. Two things about the bleeps. We were told that because it was bleeped, people thought it was cock.

Cock in the box. Even dirtier, really, right? Yes. And it sounds much worse musically. And then a few years later, we aired the song Jizz in My Pants with no bleeps and no anything. What's jizz? I don't know. I still don't know. I'm told someday I'll find out. But that one, it had to air after 12th.

15 or something like it was like at the very end of the show huh and i think whoever was running nbc at the time was maybe like jeff zucker or somebody came down to the show and like they had a whole conversation about it interesting basically we brought it in because we had already started doing albums at that point it was from our first album and we were like hey we have this video maybe we could just play it address and see how it goes and then it was like oh it went well and laura was like so we should air it and they're like but can we and we're like we have a censored version

Which does exist where instead of jizz, you just hear variations of us going. It's a lot sillier, but not as funny. You could have a dick in a box and also jizz in the box. You could? With the dick. Say more about that. Well, I'm going to show you a chart how that could work. You're on space. Where would you hold the box?

the box. It depends on your age. Dick in a box was revolutionary, but also I'm on a boat is so dry and silly. It is dry as a boat. I'm on a boat. There's nothing to it but that one idea. What do you do on the boat? I'm on a boat.

I told you. People being on boats. Just being on boats. There were a lot of videos at that time where the concept of the video was just they were on a boat and they were doing their song on a boat. We're doing good. Yeah, yeah. T-Pain was a great addition. It's always fun when you just throw someone in that out of the blue

I think you pan over to him at the beginning, like you go, that's a laugh. And then, yeah, that's like an old, like almost like Marx Brothers style reveal. Yeah. It's hard to get people. We were trying to get people for stuff back in the show and, you know, they don't know until the last minute, unless it's Geraldo Rivera, they're not coming. Oh my God. I mean, especially once you start going into the music world, like they're on their own schedule. Everybody in music does whatever they feel like. So what about Steve Martin? And he goes, what about Geraldo Rivera? And I go, well, and he goes, he's circling the building.

Anytime you say, what are you doing? He's circling the building. That was the one. I've stolen that one. What about Geraldo? Geraldo was the one that was always circling. Lauren will do that sometimes where he's just like, so-and-so is here, so put them in it. And you're like, okey-doke. Steve's coming. Yeah. We did a Laser Cats and it opens with him having dinner with Senator Dodd. Oh.

And we were like, yeah, that was definitely who we were thinking for this. Senator Dodd. Yeah, he was around. I think Chris Farley picked him up and threw him around at a party. He had Steve come in a Hollywood Minute and stand behind me and just listen to it and drink, sip a drink.

And he goes, I want a drink and I want to sip it with a straw. And we're like, okay. Fuck, I love hot. And then he just stood behind me. Steve Martin, my fucking hero. Did he say anything after? At the end, he goes, I did a joke about him. I go, he's in a new movie where he thinks he's cool. Hey, I have my shirt open. I'm Matt Dillon. And then he's standing behind me and then he taps me and I go, oh. And then he tells me to leave. And then he sits down and does some jokes.

And are they about you or just whatever? He made fun of me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You got him. That's the deal. You got to have a sense of humor about yourself. I sort of embarrassed because I didn't love it. Thanks, Andy. I wanted more for Steve. I love him. We're big guys. We get it. You know Rosetta Stone, the most trusted language learning program? Oh, yeah. If you want to learn a new language, which no time like the present, it's always fun to learn when you get older.

I know. And it's not learning a language when you're older, you know, over the age of 20 is difficult. You know, I mean, all the high school Spanish I took a grade school Spanish, you know, all I can say is Ola and hasta luego. So it goes out of your head. So now you have Rosetta stone, David, tell them about it. Well, Dana, you know, more than anyone trusted expert for 30 years with millions of users in 25 languages. Uh, I mean, my gosh, uh,

They have Spanish, French, Italian, German. I don't think you can throw them a curveball. I think they're going to know. What don't they have? The language you want. Yeah. And immerses you in many ways. There's no English translations. You know what I'm saying?

I know no English. You need a Rosetta Stone for English. No English translation, so you really learn to speak and listen and think in that language. That's the whole idea of Rosetta Stone is that it sticks to your head. It sticks to your brain. I learned German out of a book. It just doesn't stick as hard, so this is the way to do it. Designed for long-term retention.

There's a true accent feature. It gives you feedback on your pronunciation. Yes. And of course, there's desktop app options. There's an audio companion and ability to download lessons offline. Yeah, so that's great. Lifetime access to all 25 language courses Rosetta Stone offers for 50% off. A steal! And I do think that the off-label thing that... I'm ad-libbing now, going off script.

is that when you learn a language and you learn to pronunciate the words in that language, you start to learn about the people who live there and speak that language. Sort of a subtle, intuitive way of integrating with the culture. A little different, yeah. Don't put off learning that language. There's no better time than right now to get started.

All right, give something else to him. Give him another compliment. I read that you especially had a fond heart for a great day.

I do. I do have a great day. It's a pretty cool video. It has pathos. It's funny. You know, because you want to have a great day, but he's got coke all over his mouth. Yeah. Of my own works. Thank you for bringing up my own works. I am proud of that one. It came together nice. Yeah. It has a...

Well, it's just, it steps outside all the other ones. It's just so different. The neighborhood and it's all beautiful. Yes. And it's a different kind of song for us. It was more musical style. We shot down on Commerce, which is like my favorite street in Manhattan. Yeah, made it utopian. Yes, in front of the Cherry Lane Theater. We've shot there a few times. We shot this Ahmadinejad one with Fred down there too. I love that street. Anyway. Wait, I forgot to ask about Digman.

Oh yeah, that's my show. Dig Man is a show. By the way, I saw a billboard for it on my way over. It's huge. Already? Yeah. I saw it too. I was super, I was like, hey, it's real. Oh,

I was thinking the voice you did it. I rolled down my window and said, interviewing him. Yeah. Interviewing him. And me, I was like, please fucking let Dana have seen this. Dude, billboards are all that matters. Is it out already? Are we promoting it? March 22nd. Okay. And you're out soon. So yes. We'll be out. That's today. Digman is available because it's so hard to find shit.

It's today. No, but where do you get it? Comedy Central. Comedy Central. I know. Old school. Hey, Sandberg.

Sandburg, the 90s called. But we're on after South Park, so it's the best slot you get. Oh, the best slot in history. Is that your South Park? Yeah. That's good. Oh, this is South Park guy. Hi, how are you? I just shit my pants. I'm three. This kid just fucked me in the ass. I'm like, God damn. Is this a real show? I can't believe what they get away with. When I see those clips on Instagram, I go, uh,

This is from a real show or is this just a clip they made up? Because it's so fucking filthy. I like it in my ass. Megan Markle, yeah, they're in print. Hey, guys, South Park guys, Trey and Matt. If you guys ever want to come on the podcast. Beyonce's going to be here. What if they all want to come the same day, though? Andy will come back. I will.

I just watched it last night. Did you? Oh, yeah. Oh, awesome. They got it to me. Yeah. What's the... Digman. He's an archae. Yeah. He's an archaeologist. They call them archae's. It's a show set in a world where archaeologists are the biggest celebrities in the world. So like there's like a Met Gala, but it's the Archae Gala. And everyone's wondering like what museum they're going to be hired by.

And it's super silly. I made it with my buddy, Neil Campbell, who wrote on Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Comedy Bang Bang and stuff. And I've been working on it for fucking two and a half years. It is. How many episodes? It takes so long. First season's eight. And we're hoping there'll be another one. Yeah. It was funny. I just watched it last night and there's an assistant archaeologist. Yes. Mitra Juhari, who's super funny. Oh, okay. I was wondering who that was. Yeah.

Do you need any, if there's a season two, do you need any guest voices? Would you guys want to do it? Yeah. We got motherfucking Emperor's New Groove right here. All right. Remember that one? I can do two things. He knows his way around animation. I can do a llama or an invisible man. Okay. First of all, I think that sounds the same. Well, let's hear the llama. No, because they all sound... Or invisible man. The llama is, look at me and my bad self. Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. That's it? No touchy, yeah.

That was one that was a blast. That's a funny movie. That was a great one. That was a great con. Yeah. You and Warburton. Come on. This was all solid. The poison. Kuzco's poison. He and goddamn Eartha Kitt playing Yzma were so hilarious. Yeah. Have you seen that movie? It's genuinely just like shockingly funny. It's funny, isn't it? I couldn't believe it. What year did it come out? Took me three years. 90s, right? What do you mean? Three years to shoot it. Oh. It's so hard. It was mocap?

Say it again? Motion capture? I don't know if it was mocap. Did you get it through a general? Did you do a general when you got it? Did he get it through a general? Oh, I snagged it through a general. I had a general at Disney. General meetings are where you go in and they tell you you're good and then nothing ever happens. Correct. I had one a couple weeks ago. They just want to hang out. Would you like to play twins? You should be in movies. You're both guys in the scene. How would you like to clumps it?

They're clumps, but more clumps. Clumps it. That's like the Eddie Murphy movie. It's called Clumps It. Yeah, we all call it. When you're more than one part, you're clumps it. See, what they do is they cut tape. They let him do four hours of makeup change, and then they start the camera again. It's like magic. Once he did it, it kind of should have been retired, I think, because that was then. You're just like, how is this possible? No one understood. How can he possibly? One guy's Arsenio sometimes.

That's true. I don't think that's how it's pronounced. What other movie is it? Coming to America.

Just came to me. Oh, yeah. Wait, so Emperor's New Groove, I'll play Llama, but the show Digman is, it is funny as shit. I was just watching last night. Thank you. It's Andy Samberg. Come on. So, yeah, and he's got- Well, that's the, I mean, not everything- You have a brand. Not everything you ever do is like, we're going hard, funny, but this one is that. It's just jokes. We're trying to do as much- And it's a good story, so you follow it. Is it PG-13 or a soft R? It was kind of rough. It's a little, there's the bleeps. Do you have all that stuff on there?

Everything's in, but when it airs on network, it'll be bleeped. The fucks will be bleeped and everything else can air. What is that network mean comedy central? Yeah. Oh, so, cause it's, they've got a few in there, but it's not overdone. No, no, no. We try to sort of parse them out. No, it's clever, but there are a couple of times I go, Oh yeah. Bad word. Yeah. It's, it's not soft and nasty. Um,

But that was kind of the idea. Like we worked together, you know, on Brooklyn. Thanks. Yeah. And we loved making Brooklyn, but it's NBC. So there were plenty of times where we were like, we were like, just want to make a show where we don't have to cut. Just something borderline gets killed. I've done that before. And you go, oh.

This isn't even... We got to compete out there. Exactly. Exactly. It's very hard to argue because you're like, who's going to care? Yes. Our hope is that we made something that people in comedy will like it. They say that the half hour show, network show, is kind of the best...

for a human being. Well, yours was even- Yours was harder. Mine was harder than his. He did it live. Went to straight sitcom. You were 17 hours a week, right? About. I was 16.5. And once it's like a hit and everyone knows their parts too and no one's stressed, you just show up, smash. The audience is there to love it. Oh yeah. And you were single camera, so. Will and Grace got down to a science four day weeks, three day weeks. You know, I worked at Radford as a PA. Oh, you did? I worked on Spin City.

Oh, Spin City. I can't believe it. Get out of here, Sarge. Hey, guys, what are we doing here exactly? It's a soft Casey Kasem. You got to give me a minute here, Sarge. Come on, Sarge, give me a minute. I'm Casey Kasem playing Michael J. Fox. In what, Prisoners of War or something? Casualties of War. The worst one to do an impression of, no one saw it.

But you're doing it with Sean Penn. Yeah. What are we doing? He's like, we're going to get this VC gook whore. Get a tattoo. Hey, come on, guys. Get a tattoo. I know it all. Hey, come on, guys. Oh, yeah. It's Casey Kasem, basically. Is it really? It's a little lower. No, it's different. But your Casey's good. Well, you just take it back a little bit. Come on, Sarge. Don't make the audience think it's easy. Audience. It's not dissimilar. I'll give you that. You got to go on your tiptoes. Open your eyes. I'm. Hey, Doc. Oh, my God. I love him. You're at home now.

By the way, when I was there, though, it was Charlie Sheen. That's actually very good. It was Charlie Sheen? It was Charlie Sheen. It was post-Fox, so it was a different vibe. Oh, Spin City, yeah. Yes. Did you do the sketch Hookers and Blow with Charlie Sheen? Did I do that? Yeah, were you in it? I don't think I was in that. That was Matt Piedmont wrote that. It was a body shop called Hookers and Blow, spelled differently, and it was Charlie Sheen was the pitchman. Oh, my God, and it aired? Yeah. Yeah.

Who played Charlie Sheen? He did. Oh, he did it himself. When he hosted, yeah. Got it, got it, got it. Well, good for him. Yeah, good. By the way, Hot Shots, really good. Hot Shots is funny. It's really funny. All right, what's your wrap up? Blizzard Man or Shy Ronnie?

Oh, my God. It's like a little game. Oh, Chiron, you got to do with Rihanna. That was the shit. Fuck. She's the coolest. Yeah, that was kind of one of the sillier things I saw. The cool thing about her. The Chiron character was just so. And her doing it is unbelievable. Her doing it, but now whenever I see her, which is not often, she sees me and she goes, Chiron-y. Oh, cute. Like, I don't know if she knows my name, but I'm happy with what I get. Unreal. Everyone loves Rihanna. God, you know Rihanna. Damn. Good job. Jealous.

All right. Should we talk about the Oscars? I don't know. Fill in the blanks. It's a new game we have. Yeah. Oh, shit. And you can always say pass. Okay. Lorne Michaels is... My dad.

I thought that's what everyone would say. He is kind of everybody's dad. Go to your room. He's 13 months older than me. One time I was, I had been doing pretty well after a couple of years and I like did the bit, you know, where you like do, where you force it and you make your hands touch. Like he was reaching for his popcorn. Oh my God. And you're like, like a meet cute kind of thing. And I was like, Oh, look at that. He was like, slapped my hand. He went, I am not your friend.

And I was like, okay, yeah, sorry, sorry, Lauren, sorry. Yeah, sorry, sorry. I like when it says anything like that. Do you remember any Lauren-isms? We always do this on the show. I mean, he does... The Valley of Water, everyone knows that one. Yeah, I mean, he always starts things, it's that thing. You know, because it's like that thing. And like. Yeah. It's like...

It's like, you know, it'd be better if it was like funny. It'd be like a really, really good show. It helps if my bottle of slide cover note. It would help if it was good. This is the last, we have two weeks off. It would help if it was good. A good note rather than a low note. You know, I know that that's all designed to relax us. Emily Spivey, I don't know if you guys know her. She was a writer for a very long time on the show. She used to do a bit in the rewrite table.

Where, where is it going to be? No, not R rated where, where, uh, the phone would ring or she'd pretend the phone ring and she'd pick it up and she'd go, hello. Oh, Hey Lauren. Oh, thank you. No, I know. I worked really hard on it. I love you too. Like basically act like he was calling to give her tons of compliments. Cause he never gives them anybody. Yeah.

He'll always compliment, not when you're really killing a big thing, but like some exit or when you have one line in some cowboy's cut. I thought it was breathtaking. The one time he ever said something overtly nice about something I did in front of everybody was a great day. It was the meeting between dress and air.

He was like, can we like cut out of that a little faster? Very funny, by the way. And I was just like, melted to a puddle. And I was like, God, why does he have so much power over us? I know. I'll never forget it. Well, you know, he's seen everybody. Exactly. He's seen every American sketch player and every, he knows every move. Somewhat equal to all those people that have been there before. Yes. But,

Believe me, Andy Samberg was a very, very valuable player. All right, Andy, I got to go. I can't answer any of my own questions anymore about you that I answer. Okay, fair, fair, fair. Fill in the blank. I'm really bugged by... Bugs. Yeah, that's the right answer. That's true. My dream job is... I have it. Wow. Yeah.

Positivity. It's not a bit. I can't believe it. It's like we were talking about. Okay, finish this sentence. I did a Corona commercial with... Snoop! Yeah, Snoop Dogg. I'll tell you one thing about those commercials. When you do them, you're like, oh, it's fucking Snoop. These are funny. This is going to be great. And then you don't realize they're going to air them seven billion times and make people hate you. Even if they like it the first hundred times...

But that's, I guess that's, I should have known. They're well known. What was your mic drop? By the way, there was always a little thing right at the end. You're with him and then there's something right at the end. You do a little eyebrow thing or something. I'm sure I've seen it. Well, I did a few of them. Yeah. There's more coming, by the way. God damn it. I know. I know. I told everyone.

God damn it. I took the check. No, Andy. Dana, I have a Fritos one coming up. I turned down so many commercials in the 90s. I regret it to this day. Did you? Getting commerce now is cool. Ryan Reynolds just made $200 million on some gin product. He makes so much money. Yeah. You can't stop either. There's nothing wrong with that. All that means is freedom to do what you want. It is annoying that he's making so much money and he's good. Yeah.

And seems really nice. You wish he sucked a little bit. Yeah. But instead he's like funny. He has an advertising company, a management company. He's got a phone company. And his movies are all big and you want to watch them. He owns Northern California. I know. He's good. He's the president of the universe. You won't want to do this one. Fred Armisen is... Oh, man. That's good.

Like it's too much, too much talent. My friend. Yeah. But also so good, so funny. Just makes me smile every time I see him. He was on last week, right? On camera. He's delightful. And by the way, speaking of no pushing. Yeah. Never. He never, ever is sweaty ever. And it's always funny and weird and interesting. Yeah. I could get sweaty sometimes. Oh, me and you both. But Fred never would.

Spade never gets sweaty. I'm not too sweaty, right? No, you run it nice and cool and it's always sharp. I like that description. It's true. But you and me, we want it. We want it. Yeah, we can barely easily stretch and bob the couch. We're like, I got a skill set. Let me show you, motherfucker. Yeah.

Kristen Wiig is... Also my friend. And... One of the greatest. Yeah. Yeah. Agreed. One of the best. When I was doing Regis out there, I was guest hosting, and just kind of rehearsing all week, and then she comes in as Kathy Lee with all this stuff. It was like... I was kind of almost...

starstruck by the meticulous business she had her energy she was hypnotizing in this other rhythm it was really interesting to be around that she's kind of like like Steph Curry of SNL where you're like she's super quiet and seems kind of just keeping to herself and then all of a sudden you realize she's been fucking working hard and is an absolute beast and ready to unleash and like

As soon as that audience is there, you're like, oh, shit, I got to get out of the way. Oh, she has been thinking about this. Is it okay to mention your wife is a famous musician? Yeah. I love my wife. Gina Newsome. Joanna. Joanna, sorry. That's okay. Went to state school. Joanna Newsome, singer, songwriter, harp player, piano and vocals. I listen to some of it. So I think that's pretty hip. You're both artists. Yeah. She understands. I mean, she's much cooler than me, obviously. Yeah, she seemed incredibly cool. She's that. We're just...

- She says hi. - She says hi. So now just to wrap it up. So you're a dad now and so that whole, your world has changed. And now you and your wife are gonna balance this thing with your work. Do you have a plan? - It's hard, it's very hard. - It is, it's interesting. - Figuring out when to work, when not to, when who works when. - Where. - Yeah. Spade, what do you think? - I think you're heading the right direction.

That's my general thought. Do you think you want kids? Yeah. I have a daughter and she's here. Not here in the house. I kicked her out. But she's here and we're going to go to the lunch right after this. How old is your daughter? She's 14. We're going to take her to Beverly Hills, that little diner in the Beverly Hills Hotel. No, we're going to something more grimy. Oh, really? Yeah. In and out? I don't want her to know that I have

Just keep it quiet. Well, this house is a little bit of a giveaway. Oh, yeah. In LA, kids just think that's what houses are. I know. This house. I'm just kidding. Andy Samberg has been our guest and he's been very nice. And his leg probably hurts at this point. No. I would do this for another seven hours. And you're going to give us a bike and it's going to be bad. Really? We could deep dive into how much fun it was to shoot laser cats. Oh, I do like laser cats. When you see it, you're like, that's just kid stuff. That's so much fun. It was very fun.

I like Chironi. Okay, okay. This will be our sum up.

Andy Samberg, one of the all-time greats, Saturday Night Live. What? Revolutionized Saturday Night Live with a digital video. Probably has two to 300 million hits on YouTube. Between all those videos. Money? Well, no. No, definitely not. YouTube views, Saley. Definitely more than that. Also one of the ones we were talking about. 55 million just for on a boat. I think I'm on a boat has well over 200 million. Okay, so you're over a billion. You're the new bad baby.

I'm kidding. If I knew this at the beginning of the podcast, I would be- I like to think of myself as the new Rebecca Black, but thank you. Okay. I would have been nervous if I'd known that stat. But yeah, it's pretty monstrous. All of them are from years ago, by the way. Doesn't matter. Aggregate. I think we have over a billion views on our YouTube channel, which I know because what else am I going to do during COVID? And you get paid $2,900. Look at the views. Check those stats. Yeah.

But now there's single- Songs. Single songs by pop stars that have like over two or three billion or something. Yeah. Mr. Lizard has seven billion hits on his latest song, Shabba Doo. No, I'm kidding. I'm trying to, what's funnier than Bad Bunny? Mr. Lizard. Well, we have been trying to get Andy for a while because people ask about like, there's people they really want to hear from. So.

So really? It's nice that you... Well, your impact on the show is huge. You're part of the whole story of SNL. Yeah. And so we were very happy to have you. And there's a chunk of time that's like good to have Andy. You had a lane that no one else had. Well, thanks. I mean, it's very much with Akiva and Yorma too. I always have to mention. And with your friends who are in a lot of the videos and are really great performers themselves. They are. Always make me laugh. They're great. Those are my buds. Let's take our picture. All right. Thanks, Andy. Thanks. Thanks.
