About this listen

 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.2024 Art Music

    Aug 26 2025
    This week, The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers talk about the digital short Brenda and Shaun! Drew Barrymore’s return to SNL brought a follow-up to the classic digital short Body Fuzion. They also take a moment to discuss the passing of Seth’s beloved dog, the headline grabber Frisbee. Plus, Andy’s stuntman suit from Hot Rod is up for auction, and they revisit sketches like Cooking Al Fresco, ESPN Classic: Ladies’ Billiards, and Scrooge McDuck on Update. There’s also a bit about Seth’s other podcast (Family Trips with the Meyers Brothers) and the glorious Marine World Africa, USA. Lastly (but certainly not least), Fred Armisen drops by the pod via Jorma’s new character: “the guy who randomly sends Zoom links to his friends.” Brenda and Shaun | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njd8lTOy210 Hasan Minhaj on Family Trips | https://youtu.be/WP28ehtrkJE Marine World Africa USA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clOd6T7MfgA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKfSFk8bRBQ Body Fuzion | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qkrR9yTsbs Andy Samberg's Stuntman Suit From 'Hot Rod' Is Up For Auction | https://screenbeat.substack.com/p/andy-sambergs-stuntman-suit-from Rod Kimble's (Andy Samberg) Final Jump Costume | https://tinyurl.com/yyx2zafk Weekend Update: Scrooge McDuck | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsfZaiV9-kE Cooking Al Fresco | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ3I89Vaqfs ESPN Classic: Ladies' Billards | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOvT5-JAW8E The Californias (Full Playlist) | https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLS_gQd8UB-hJqmD_2fyFYEvC-lvIgsdRr&si=06RsHCSQsMreHo6u Not all the clips we mention are available online; some never even aired.

    This week we're re-releasing the very first listener Q&A episode! This originally aired in September 2024 so some of the references are dated but the laughs are still fresh. Seth and the guys answer some of your burning questions (slightly smoldering almost a year later) about the making of some of their digital shorts, Andy’s Spelling Bee tactics, and so so so much more! Sorry for the Hauser move this week but we'll be back next week with another righteous kill!
