Beck Bennett on booking SNL and Embodying Putin

Dana pulls back the curtain on his Biden and Fauci clips that blew up the internet—how he built the voices and the rhythm. Before that, David revisits the mall audition for Star Search he actually got…and turned down, plus why he passed on a Joan Rivers cohost gig that still led to a FOX exec meeting. Then the guys react to clips—Sen. John Kennedy on aliens, “Japan invented the shower,”—and riff on reunion bands. They close by debating whether they’d do stand-up in Saudi Arabia like other comics.

To top it off, McKean shares what it was like to work with the GOAT himself: Paul McCartney.
