About this listen
Another VINTAGE episode of The Early Years of SNL this week as we take a look back at Eric Idle's first time hosting Saturday Night Live early in Season 2. With the help of musical guest Joe Cocker (and Stuff), the Monty Python legend's outing delivers one of the best shows of the original era.
Top to bottom, this is a great episode. While it leans heavily on Idle and feels very reminiscent of all things Python, there are still plenty of classic SNL moments that stand out—including Baba Wawa, The Bees, and John Belushi doing his Joe Cocker impression alongside the real Joe Cocker during the musical performance. If that wasn't enough, this is also the episode that introduced us to "The Rutles."
We were joined by our "English Correspondent," Thomas Sena, making his second appearance on the podcast to help break down this Python-meets-SNL masterpiece.
This episode was originally released on October 17th, 2023.
