Kenan Thompson: Theatre, SNL, & the Art of Comedy

Today we are joined by actor, comedian, producer, podcast host, and the longest-tenured SNL cast member Kenan Thompson. We kick off the episode with Kenan explaining how he and Caitlin met and what prompted him to come on the podcast. We then start to delve into topics such as his love and respect for the theatre; how he got into acting; and growing up and balancing his Nickelodeon career with going to school. Next we move into a discussion about his time at SNL, touching on how he got cast after several rejections due to his "baby face"; the ways in which he's seen SNL and the comedy scene evolve in his 19 years on the show; his absolute favorite role to date being a girl dad to Georgia and Giana; balancing family life with his busy career; and so much more. Along the way he shares some of his favorite SNL memories from over the years, his reasons behind starting his production company Artists for Artists, and his take on the ongoing Dave Chapelle conversation. We finish up with a game of "7 Tea Questions" and are even blessed enough to hear some of his favorite impressions. Unsurprisingly, this is one of Caitlin and Nina's favorite episodes to date!
