Zach Looks for a New Assistant

On this episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast, the guys try to figure out who made Zach Looks for a New Assistant (it was John Solomon) and why it has a Digital Short bumper on it even though none of them worked on it (no clue). So they’re just going to sit back and enjoy it... eventually. But first, they will talk about many things, including more 90s movies like the hit comedy of the decade starring future MacGruber villain Billy Zane, Silence of the Hams; Rachel Dratch’s fail in the crossword (it’s Church Chat, not Church Lady); the classic SNL sketch Colon Blow (written by the great Al Franken); and the parade of unused impressions in the sketch The Original Kings of Catchphrase Comedy Tour, in which we learn that Andy’s character was an unused audition bit. Oh, and I totally forgot to mention that this is a “versus” episode. Andy is here for the first half and Jorm for the second. Who does a better job? You decide!
