Join Seth Meyers as he sits down with fellow SNL alum and comedy-music sensations The Lonely Island (Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone) to discuss their wildly popular and groundbreaking series of SNL Digital Shorts that aired on Saturday Night Live beginning in 2005. Episode by episode they'll discuss how each short was created, what the response to it was at the time, and what impact, if any, it still has today. Aided by Seth, the guys will relive their time at SNL and reminisce on the nearly 50-year-old show from a time when putting short comedy sketches on the internet was so novel that they maybe even helped launch YouTube to do it. Along the way they'll talk all things SNL from guests, fellow cast members, and favorite live sketches including many that never aired.

This week on The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast we’re talking about Seth’s favorite short, Two Worlds Collide. And to help us understand the truly genius and inspired concept we have Kenan Thompson joining the pod! Find out how he dove deep and found the character of Reba McEntire in what is most likely Lorne Michaels’s favorite digital short. Plus the guys respond to some feedback from the last few episodes, take a look at some of the amazing gifts the Quaid Army sent Jorm and talk about more possible merch ideas. Which we will DEFINITELY get around to making.
