Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Vibes: Comfort & Uncomfort In the Room

• Both Grace and Kyle admit to being naturally awkward or “uncomfortable people,” joking that the episode will be a “battle of the uncomf.”
  • “My, like, natural state is uncomfortable, so, like, there’s not much you can do. But you’re keeping me in a good place.” – Kyle (01:59)
• The hosts invite listeners to share whether the conversation feels comfortable or not—riffing on podcast tropes like ‘smash the like button.’

2. Fan Admiration & Podcasting Origins

• Grace showers Kyle with praise for his comedy and new podcast, expressing admiration for the guests he and Beck Bennett bring in.
• Kyle describes how he and Beck, friends since college, started their own podcast after leaving SNL, centering, deliberately, on not having a premise:
  • “The premise of the show is...you guests come in and tell us what our podcast should be.” – Kyle (06:39)
• Their friendship, built over 20+ years, is portrayed as vital to their comfort and creativity both at SNL and beyond.

3. Navigating Social Media & Audience Feedback

• The conversation highlights a generational/creative split on reading internet comments.
  • Grace confesses to reading every comment despite the negative impact:
    • “It’s just like reading about myself I didn’t even know I hated.” – Grace (08:53)
  • Kyle avoids comments, slightly envying the potential for positivity but wary of negativity.
• A bit about “hand modeling” riffing on Kyle’s hands—a running joke and an opportunity for audience engagement ("Doctors in the house, explain this thumb!").

4. On Creativity, Doubt, and the Pressure of Bits

• Kyle opens up about creative self-doubt—how each podcast, like every SNL sketch, comes with the pressure of wanting everything to be “just a little better.”
  • “Anything I do—like, ah, fuck, I wish that could have been a little better. I feel that same thing…ah, fuck, that episode could have been better.” – Kyle (17:12)
• Grace compares reliving bad podcast moments to thinking of better comebacks after a fight (“It’s on steroids because there’s viewers”).

5. Kyle’s Podcast Habits & Influences

• Kyle shares his approach to consuming podcasts—going down the rabbit hole on specific personalities and listening to every appearance they make, rather than subscribing to particular shows.
  • “I just, like, look up their name and listen to every podcast appearance they've ever done.” – Kyle (18:38)
• Podcasts mentioned include Smartless and Heavyweight.

6. Influence & Generational Impact

• Grace brings up Kyle’s influence on younger comedians, especially SNL cast members.
  • “Hearing that people care, like, is incredible. It makes me feel like the work I’ve done…is meaningful.” – Kyle (21:24)
• Discussion of changing platforms—starting in YouTube’s golden age, now seeing comedy’s outlet shift to podcasts, Instagram, TikTok, etc.

7. Creative Specificity vs. Broad Appeal

• Kyle reflects on his tendency toward uniquely “hyper specific” comedy, envying sometimes the success of more accessible, topical sketches.
  • “Sometimes I think I can’t just come up with the most basic…my brain doesn’t go to basic.” (26:17)
• Grace connects, describing the difficulty in explaining “stranger” ideas in writers’ rooms.

8. Life at SNL & The “Mr. Nice Guy” Title

• Kyle recounts being at SNL for nine years, the importance of time spent there, and the mystique of favorite eras for fans and cast alike.
• Comic rivalry over the title “Mr. Nice Guy,” referencing fellow castmate John Ranitski.
  • “I feel like nobody’s ever…they sort of coined the whole Mr. Nice Guy thing when they met me.” – Kyle (31:02)
• The banter includes playful gatekeeping about comedic nicknames and who can claim which persona.

9. Improv/Bit Game: “And Scene”

• Grace and Kyle play a series of improv character games.
• Highlights:
  • Guy Trying to Act Unaffected After Being Roasted (33:57)
  • Guy Who Keeps Saying He's Leaving a Party But Won't Leave (35:54)
  • Guy Pushing His Music Career for The Fourth Time (52:13)
• Games are riff-heavy, displaying both comedians’ quick wit and chemistry.

10. Behind the Scenes: Hollywood, Internships, and Auditions

• Kyle shares stories from internships at the Jim Henson Company and with a screenwriter’s agent, including reading the script for Devil Wears Prada and not “getting” it (43:20).
• He tells a relatable story of an anxiety-fueled early TV audition, complete with “fantasizing” about group watch parties and dissolving into tears on the studio lot when it bombs (65:00).

11. On the Origins of 'Good Neighbor'

• The group name “Good Neighbor” comes from a neighbor encounter after a college house party.
  • “And Beck said, I promise, next time if we throw a party, I’m gonna put a bucket out and a sign that says, 'Put your cigarette butts here.' ... She’s like, 'Thank you, good neighbor.'” (59:20-59:40)

12. SNL Audition Stories and Comedy Pedigree

• Kyle’s first SNL audition included “host” bit for ‘Lonnie Mickers’ (Lorne Michaels), which made it into an SNL doc (68:47).
• Agent advice for second audition: “Do not do the Lonnie Mickers thing again.”

13. Favorite Sketches & Legacy

• Among his favorites:
  • Brothers (big Looney Tunes shirts sketch)
  • Oh, Man, I’m All Out of Cash
  • Beers with Larry David
• Grace notes Kyle’s pioneering use of man-on-the-street, POV and direct-to-camera formats:
  • “You were doing man on the street before like anybody else…” (73:55)
  • “Truly 100%. You missed a nice guy. You're the first to do it…multi talented all across the board.” – Grace (74:23)

14. Shout-Outs Segment

• Both give increasingly absurd and affectionate shout-outs in closing.
  • “Shout out to bikini bottom. And I really want to shout out like bars. Ordering at the bar. At the restaurant.” – Kyle (75:18)
  • “Shout out my dad’s uncle. His name is Dennis. Shout out to anybody who’s ever had to lay brick…” – Grace (74:23)

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. But it was great. It was convincing. I was like, oh, now it's a. It's real.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Now it's. Yeah, now I'm not. I'm trying to pretend I'm not a nervous wreck, but beforehand I'm talking mad quiet, you know, I'm just, you know, trying to make you feel comfortable. Do you feel comfortable?

[Kyle Mooney]

I do. I. I do feel comfortable. You're making me feel comfortable. I will say, like, my, like, natural state is uncomfortable, so, like, there's not much you can do. But you're. But you're keeping me a lot. You're keeping me in a good place. So everything is good on my end.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Okay. Cause I'm the same way. I'm Pretty. I'm pretty much of, like, a. A mad uncomfortable person. So this is. This is good. This should be. This should interesting battle of the uncomf.

[Kyle Mooney]

I feel like it's. I feel like people are saying it's actually really comfortable over here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

All right, that's. That's pretty cool. Hey, let us know in the comments below if you feel, like, mad comfortable watching or, like, uncomfortable. And you. You just. You just going to have to keep on tuning in.

Yes. Know if you're mad comfortable and smash

[Grace K. O'Malley]

that, like, button, please smash it. No, dude. Welcome in. I am. I'm a very huge fan. I. I think I might have said it, like, 37 times, Farley style. Like, just. You are awesome.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's. That. I. I don't. I don't know. That's very nice of you to say. I never know how to respond to that. I'm a fan of you. I don't know what it implies to be. I don't know what that means.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I think you're very hilarious and funny. I was just saying before I was asking.

[Kyle Mooney]

I'm, like, grasping for that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, no. I'm going to give it to you because you deserve your flowers. I mean, the new POD rocks.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, thank you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I love it so much.

[Kyle Mooney]

You got to. Come on.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I would love to. The guests you've been grabbing is like, you would pull in some big dogs.

[Kyle Mooney]

You know, I don't. I think. I feel like. Because maybe it's Beck and I and there's, like, a sad Night Live connection. Maybe it's, like, kind of easy for people to be like, okay, this seems like something I can do that's put

[Grace K. O'Malley]

me in the room where you two are talking about starting a podcast and how you decided to make it a podcast about. You don't know what the podcast is.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Meta.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. I'm going to see.

[John Ranitski]

I'm.

[Kyle Mooney]

I'll try to set the. The imagery here as best I can. I think it was. So I left SNL the summer of 2022. Beck left the year prior to me. And then.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And you guys started together.

[Kyle Mooney]

We did.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And you had worked together before?

[Kyle Mooney]

We met in college. Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And so you're, like, straight up buddies.

[Kyle Mooney]

We've known each other. Yeah. So since 2003. So. 20. 23 years. Is that right?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Wow. Yeah. And so you get. You guys are doing your own kind of sketches, your own thing, and then you both got hired at the same time. I think that's, like, the coolest thing ever.

[Kyle Mooney]

It was really rad, and it was like, that Place is obviously, like, you know, famously scary and intimidating and political and competitive. And like, it felt like such a wild advantage to be there with somebody that you know and love. And also, like, kind of speaks the same, like, comedic language as you, sort of.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Totally.

[Kyle Mooney]

I felt. Yeah. I don't know what I would have. I don't know that I would have done. I would have survived or been there as long had he not.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Because even just like, having one person with you in any kind of a new setting, never mind Saturday Night Live, it just. You have that one person you can go to even though you're, like, feeling nervous or something.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. I feel. And we've got. And we. Yeah, we share an office. We shared a dressing room. We've sort of seen at this point, we've seen each other, like, in all versions of ourselves. And also, like, in college, it's like, there's not many secrets we can keep from each other. Just in terms of, like, I know how he's feeling today. He knows how I'm feeling today. Just probably by the way we walk into the room.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. And that's huge to have that person. I mean, my sister works with me, so that's, like, a huge win. We just get to be together all the time, and so, like, we can read each other.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. How often are you guys? How are you guys? Button heads.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So we were living together and working together and playing together. We had to get rid of one of those factors because all three. We were fist fighting.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And that was just last year. So we. We had. We had to take one of those out of the equation.

[Kyle Mooney]

Which one is out.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So now we no longer live together.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

You said you were playing together.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, like, you know, hanging.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I was like, yeah, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. I didn't know if you were in a band.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, no, no.

[Kyle Mooney]

Like, truly, like, action figures. I didn't know what.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, they're doing Legos and y. Sometimes, but. Yeah. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

So did you guys live together? We did. We. For like a year or two. We lived in the same house in LA before snl.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Okay, cool.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then. Yeah. It just had been a minute after we both had, like, stopped working at the show, and we were like, we should do something. And podcasting seemed like sort of a low lift, I guess. And then, like, I guess the premise of the show is. Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Hilarious.

[Kyle Mooney]

Our podcast, like, you guests come in and tell us what our podcast should be. And I'm loving what you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

What everyone lands on.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Like, we found out that you're a hand Model.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes, that's right.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I got fingers. So you ever, you ever make money off of those?

[Kyle Mooney]

I've never. Do you think I could, like, what I could.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, there's. There's a niche for everything.

[Kyle Mooney]

See, this is where, like, I do when, you know, you said, like, leave a comment. Smash the like button. I don't read any of the comments, but I would be interested in reading the comments sense to see if there's any interest in that sort of hand stuff or that finger stuff.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Let me just. Let me just pivot. So I. I'm so glad you guys have made it this far. Whatever I said to comment on beforehand, forget all that. We get a close up of your hands. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

You let me know what you want me to do here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then I've got. So can you see? I don't know. This is. This thumb is sort of.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, so you can't hold a serving plate?

[Kyle Mooney]

No, they. They won't allow me.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. No. You're gonna drop it all?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

What happened? How did, how did it get all smashed?

[Kyle Mooney]

You know, I feel like my mother had some fucked up thing happening. I really don't know.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Drinking during the pregnancy.

[Kyle Mooney]

She could have been. Yeah, I mean, maybe that's something that could. Maybe somebody could leave a comment about, like, how does this occur? Because that. I don't know this.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, I'm pretty sure we have. We have a lot of doctors in the house. If you are a doctor, please, or a nurse, or a nurse practitioner or anybody with any kind of a medical degree. Maybe you failed out of medical school. You can leave a comment and what you think the hands could be.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. Or if you just want to talk shit and make fun of me, you can do that too.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I prefer if you would not make fun of my boy.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Angie Hicks]

Wow.

[Kyle Mooney]

And look who's on my side. This is actually really, really cool.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. You know, you gotta. You gotta stick up for your boys. You know, it's really screw. If you're gonna be screwing around, we want medical advice only and positive compliments.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's great. Do you read them?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I read everything. Yeah. I'm out of my mind.

[Kyle Mooney]

And how do you. Does it affect you?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah, but it kind of. It also makes me stronger, if anything.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, that's.

[John Ranitski]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

I feel like Beck says the same thing.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's just like, if you're gonna. I, I read it. It's a tough way to start your day. Yeah, but that's.

[Kyle Mooney]

But that's what? That's like your cup of coffee?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. That. That's, like, my morning newspaper.

[Kyle Mooney]

Interesting.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. It's just like reading about myself I didn't even know I hated.

[Kyle Mooney]

Damn.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. It's fun. You're smart for not reading, I get.

[Kyle Mooney]

But it's like. But you. There must be good things that you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah, but I just can't even remember those.

[Kyle Mooney]

Sure.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's the thing that I feel like I'm missing out on is that, like, there might be. Yeah, there's definitely, like, your fingers or whatever.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Everyone needs a good phalange compliment, you know?

[Kyle Mooney]

Absolutely.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Every once in a while, you know, some people are going with the beautiful hands, and they never get to see the light of day. One time I was watching, you know, the Sunday morning show. They did a whole segment on hand models.

[Kyle Mooney]

I feel like I remember that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It was so monumental in our family. Like, we talk about it all the time.

[Kyle Mooney]

Is there one woman in particular?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

She wears gloves to keep them safe. Yeah, just. That's, like, the funniest thing of all time. They were like, slow Newsweek.

[Kyle Mooney]

And she was specific.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. She was very particular about the hands and what they touch. And I think she was walking around like a surgeon. Like, just kind of like.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And then I show them like this. It's weird what you remember. I know. I just. I remember watching it, like, on tv. Yeah. With my. With my mom, and we were like, what?

[Kyle Mooney]

I remember those clips. Yeah. Yeah. That's a.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That was. That was interesting. I mean, to put a parody on. That's very funny. That's like. Sometimes you see something and you wish you thought of it, but. So how do you. How do you guys decide who comes on your pod?

[Kyle Mooney]

How do we do it? We. I mean, like, sometimes it's friends. We have producers who are just, like, pitching people.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And it's. You know, like, we've recently had buddies who have been like, hey, I'm promoting this thing.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah?

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

It's like, can you. Come on.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's the new late night.

[Kyle Mooney]

But I guess so. They said even though there's, like, so many fucking people doing. Yeah, yeah. But. Yeah, I don't know.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

But you have a niche.

[Kyle Mooney]

Do we?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Your niche is that you don't have a niche, and I love that. It's like a. It's a convoluted thing. Is that the right word? Convoluted?

[Kyle Mooney]

I think that work potentially.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

All right. My dependence. I'm pulling out of my ass. I'm trying to.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, you're not.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And who's to say? But I. I know. I think I Think it's like a fun twist because, like, people go on and they're. They don't. There's. There's no expectation or anything. And they just know they're gonna have a fun combo with you guys. And it always is.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, it's. I mean, like, I. I will. Here's what I've been saying about it. I've known Beck, as I. As we've said, for so long, and we've spent so much time hanging out. Intimately.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Over the course of our friendship. But I'm, like, surprised by the fact that we are, like, now we're spending more. I feel like it's almost more time than SNL spending more time together. And I think we're getting along the best we've ever gotten.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's awesome.

[Kyle Mooney]

Along and. Yeah. It's just. We get to riff and then that's always the fun. I mean, like, you. I'm sure you experience it when you do this. It's like, what is the vibe gonna be when somebody comes in?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I'm saying you anticipate it.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. You have no idea.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's almost like, like, almost like an. Obviously. But like. Yeah. You know, it's gonna be a good time regardless.

[Kyle Mooney]

Right. And with him, it's like we get whatever, 15 minutes at the top to just riff and do bits and we bring somebody in and then like, you see how that plays out. But yeah, everybody's had been good about their pitches. I feel like there's been maybe one or two I didn't enjoy, but which ones? That's. That's gonna be an off mic situation.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, dude, that's. That's. You guys have a Patreon, right?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, exactly.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's for the Patreon.

[Kyle Mooney]

That is. Yeah, that's a good idea of our Patreon. Just talking shit.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Talk shit. That's. What's the money maker.

[Kyle Mooney]

Do you have a Patreon?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

No.

[Kyle Mooney]

Why not?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I don't think I'm allowed to. Oh, come on.

[Kyle Mooney]

Do you? Because here's the thing about you. How long you been doing this?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I've done this one for about a year and a half. And then I had another one with my buddy from growing up that we did for like 3 or 3 ish years.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. Because we're new to it. We started. We've not been doing it a year and like, to me, the most.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Eight months.

[Kyle Mooney]

Damn.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Okay. Yeah, sorry. I'm getting a little autistic with it. I got the facts.

[Kyle Mooney]

Mikey Math over here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, that's me, dog. Shout out you call me Stripes.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay, Stripes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Mikey, Matt said you're not Mike Math anymore.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay, copy. Just another.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Just like a full moment that I realized I'm wearing all stripes.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, damn, that's tight.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I guess so. The shirt's kind of tight.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh. What was. Yeah. Okay. So the podcast game, to me, like, I don't cons. I think part of the reason we caught. We, like, did what's our podcast is because, like, it was sort of an excuse to be. Like, we're sort of figuring this out as we go along.

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Because, like, I don't find myself. I'm not particularly confident in, like, just talking and being, like, insane. Like, articulate things or thoughtful things or

[Grace K. O'Malley]

even clever things or if someone is sentimental about something, like, I'll have. I had one girl tell me, like, a big old secret, and I didn't know what to do with it.

[Kyle Mooney]

I know that is the. That is the worst feeling is like not knowing how to respond. And it doesn't mean that you, like, don't. Yeah, sometimes it's like, I'm with you. I just don't know what to say. Like, wow, that's. I'm sure that was very difficult to go through. Like.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I just, like, verbalize the whole thing. I'm like, now. I'm sure now you might see that I'm not showing any emotion. But that is not because I do not love you. It's just that I don't know what to say.

[Kyle Mooney]

I don't know how to fucking talk.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Right. Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

is the game right now. Like, people. This is what people are doing. This is like another outlet to be funny. And do you like it?

[Kyle Mooney]

Do I like it?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Like, in comparison to all the other, like, things you've done because you're multi talented?

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah,

[Grace K. O'Malley]

it's very sweet because we've got. We've got music to pick from.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

We've got sketches to pick from.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's true.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

We've got sketches. We've got movies, voice acting. I mean, you're a jack of all trades.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, come on. Am I actually turning red right now?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Did. It's ugly.

[Kyle Mooney]

I. I like it. I like. It's interesting. Like, it's actually not that fucking interesting.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I bet. I bet it is.

[Kyle Mooney]

I feel like I do. I love hanging out with him.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And I love doing bits with him. And, like, I do like that we don't have any control over, like, what's happening in our careers and within the industry. You know what I mean? Like, we can't, like, just force a tv. Like, a TV show to exist that we star in. Right. Or a movie or whatever. So, like, I like the fact that we get a. You know, pretty much. We get to hang out, like, weekly or however often it is.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's like a mandatory hang.

[Kyle Mooney]

It's a mandatory hang. And we get to, like. You get to sort of do some reps, you know, you get to, like. Like, kind of, like, do some voices, get silly, and, like, it feels like it's a good way to, like, kind of keep those muscles moving 100%. Here's what. Here's one of my issues with it is that, like, in the same way that, like, at snl, if, like, a sketch didn't go well, it would bum me out or, like, if I felt. If I loved a sketch and then, like, I felt, like, come the live version, I didn't do the best version of it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

It would really frustrate me. And that goes with, like, anything in my life. Anything I do. Like, ah, fuck, I wish that could have been a little better. I feel that same thing about. It's like, ah, fuck, that episode could have been better.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So, like, as a viewer, I don't feel that way, but I totally understand you feeling that way, because everything I do, I'm like, that could have been better. Yeah, I could have. That could have.

[Kyle Mooney]

So it's like, what feels like it should be just a lax thing. Right. It's just like, okay, we're just gonna shoot the.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

But I still end up putting my pressure. Putting that pressure on myself, you know,

[Grace K. O'Malley]

it's kind of like losing a fight on steroids. It's like you and you. When you're in a. In, like, a verbal fight with someone, and then you're in the shower and you're like, oh, I Could have said that. Yeah, I could have won that. But it's on steroids because there's viewers, like, people are watching what you said, and they're not thinking about it as much as you are. But you, in your head, you're like, I could. Damn, I could have had that.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, I guess that's true. I guess, like, yeah, when I'm, like, listening or consuming a podcast, I wonder how much judgment I have. I guess there's not really much at all, because it really is.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's just listening to the guys you like. Yeah. And so what. What parts do you listen to?

[Kyle Mooney]

What do I listen to?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

What's on your rotate?

[Kyle Mooney]

Honestly. Okay. Okay. This is. I'm gonna, I'm gonna divulge. I'm gonna. I'm. I'm not gonna. I'm gonna, like, kind of answer, but not answer the question.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I like this.

[John Ranitski]

Pull it.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. Sometimes I just, like, kind of, like, become obsessed with a person that's, like, within my sphere, and, like, I just, like, look up their name and listen to every podcast appearance they've ever done.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I just. Recently, I did this with Bill Burr.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I just, I know he's had a podcast for years. And then I just. I started at episode one, and I was like, oh, my God, I can't believe I haven't been listening to this. Then I went down a rabbit hole on any things he's been on, and I just kind of. I got stuck in it.

[Kyle Mooney]

I know. I feel like it's like I'm doing some sort of weird, like, kind of like, Kind of like I'm an alien looking down on this person's, like, life or something like that, and trying to figure out what. How. What makes them tick and kind of their weird idiosyncrasies. So, like, that's a lot of what I do. And then I think I listen. Yeah, I, I don't listen to a lot of podcasts. On road trips, I do the standard out. Like, we'll do, like, smart lists or whatever or, like, just recently started listening this show that's existed forever called Heavyweight. Have you heard of that?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

No.

[Kyle Mooney]

The premise is this guy is a journalist, and he, like, brings sort of people, I guess, that are sometimes feuding together or, like, sometimes there's, like, some sort of mystery where he's, like, kind of bringing people together.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, interesting.

[Kyle Mooney]

And that. But, yeah, but I, I. How about you? Are you. Are you actively listening to podcasts?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I am. I. I go in and I go out. Like. Like, you just said, like, you, you get kind of honed in on one person, and that's like, your thing for a little bit. That's what I kind of do.

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And then I forget about it and go on to the. The next one. But I'm not. I mean, Amy Poehler's. I just started listening to. I think that's fantastic. I think it's cool. I kind of just pulled a trick from her of calling someone who either knows the person or is a huge fan right before they come on and asking what they should ask. And I called my buddy Liam, who's a huge fan of you, and his big question was, how does it feel to influence another generation of comics?

[Kyle Mooney]

That's because you have. Well, that's very flattering and. And wonderful to hear. How does it feel?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I. I know it's a big one. It's like an Oprah one.

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, it's like, you know, like, I mean, it feels. I. I don't know. It's like, I feel it now in this moment. Like, you're saying such nice things to me and hearing that people care, like, is. Is incredible. I don't know.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Like, I know Veronica has mentioned she's a new cast member this year, and she's kind of looked up to you, and she kind of has, like, the same style almost, is what she said. I think she said that on an interview. And I don't know, I just think it would be, like, the coolest thing ever, you know?

[Kyle Mooney]

I guess my feelings are, like, one. Okay, that's awesome. And it makes me feel like the work I've done or whatever, this voice that I've, like, kind of curated. I don't know what you like that it's. It's meaningful to people and that, like, I've been doing good work. That is, like, the number one feeling I get. Or, like, at least good work for some people, right?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then, like, at the same time, I guess at times it makes me feel old.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's like, oh, yeah, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

But not in a. Not in a bad way, but just like. Oh. Like, it's like. Yeah. When I came up, like, we were like, YouTube was the thing.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And, like, it was. So that's all we were like, we gotta fucking make some good YouTube videos. We want to make some videos that'll make our friends laugh. And it's. What's been interesting is to see it evolve, like, because it's not the thing anymore, per se. It's like, because there's podcasts or Instagram or TikTok or whatever.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

But, like. But that was.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That was, like, the one outlet where you could put your. Your. Any video you create, you put it on there. There's nowhere else anyone could see it.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And YouTube, was it like, that was like, the. The Internet entertainment that you had.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And, like, you. You took that and you ran with it. I just think, like, I think it's the coolest thing of all time that you have stuck to you, you know? Like, your voice has always been through and through, all the way through. Like, even your album that you put out, Was it last year?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, it's just. It's. It coincides with the sketch you did with, like, Kanye.

[Kyle Mooney]

Right.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's like. I mean, you're the only one who's ever stuck up to Kanye. I mean, you're the only one who's actually gave it to him.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, sure.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, who else is going face to face with. With that guy?

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, thank you for finally saying that out loud.

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, come on, now. And you. You got his ass.

[Kyle Mooney]

I appreciate that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I think he started a spiral.

[Kyle Mooney]

I remember trying to remember what I said to him. I feel like I caught. I said he had bad breath, maybe.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, dude. And once you were done with that kind of. It would be no more Kanye.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Not to go word for word on

[Kyle Mooney]

your own bars, but one thing about that video that I recall, that was a video where we, like. It was a situation where we hadn't gotten a piece on in a minute, and my friend Dave McCary, who directed the video, who also made Internet, like, YouTube videos with us and worked at the show.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. So all three of you guys actually got hired, right?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, well, there was four. There's four of us.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, four of you guys. Okay. Sorry.

[Kyle Mooney]

But Nick didn't get hired the first year, but he got hired as a.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

As a writer, right?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. But Dave was like, we should just do Kanye's coming. We should do something where you try to battle him. And, like, we didn't even, like, it was one of those pieces that wasn't properly, like, written and submitted. We just started, like, kind of shooting it and asking permission and.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah. So you never, like, pitched it to Kanye properly?

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, then, like, so then we had some, like. We had the footage leading up to, like, the point where, like, okay, now we. We need to, like, kind of talk to Kanye and we have him.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And I mean, my favorite part of that is he just. I. You can tell. You can almost tell that you hadn't, like, fully asked yet because you're in the Background going while he's, like, doing. Like, he's practicing.

[Angie Hicks]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. He definitely wasn't in on it. Yeah, but then he was. I mean, like, he was down and, like, he complimented me on my sweatshirt at one point, which was. At that point. Like, at that point, it was really cool, for sure.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Things might have changed with that, for sure, but. And he kind of just sang his. I. I don't know if, like, that was. That song was out yet that he sang at you, but.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And he was singing at you, not to you.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. The old Kanye. Yeah. I think the album host, the Life of Pablo, that came out like that at midnight or the next day. It was pretty crazy.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That is wild. Yeah. You got the free verse. Spit in your face.

[Kyle Mooney]

Kanye was good.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, yeah. You know, he was like, ah, he's. He's crawling out of his rock lately. They're trying to. They're trying to bring him back. I've heard. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

But, yeah, I mean, those are very nice things you're saying in terms of, like, maintaining a voice or whatever. I. Yeah, I still. I feel like sometimes it's detrimental because, like, I wanna. I do wanna make that, like, speaks to me and that again, like, that my friends will, like. Or that kind of, like, feels earnest to the way that I make stuff or think about the world. And I. Sometimes I think I'm, you know, I'm just, like, hyper specific. So, like, there would be, like, at snl, I'd get jealous of people who had these ideas that are, like, kind of basic. Right. It's like, oh, this just, like, take this topical thing and put this slight spin on it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And I feel like my brain doesn't go to basic. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, I always go, like, a couple steps ahead, and that's sort of like the. That I do. And I'm not. I'm not trying to say that what I make is brilliant or super smart. Like, it might sound like Kanye right now, but, like, I'm just saying, like, sometimes I'm like, I can't just come up with the most basic.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, 100. And then when you're trying to explain it to someone else, you're like, just hear me out. Right? Hear me out. I know it sounds crazy, but if we just try it out. Hear me out. No, I get that.

[Angie Hicks]

Do you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Do you like talking about snl, or is that, like, a thing you did and, like, move on?

[Kyle Mooney]

I'm down for it. Yeah. I mean, like, the way I feel about it. Yeah. Why? Do you have specific questions or.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Well, no, I just, I don't. I just, I never know because I know some people, they either enjoyed their time, they didn't like their time, or they're just trying to move right along.

[Kyle Mooney]

Right.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And I, I get, I just want to be respectful.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, that's fine.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And I think some people are also probably like. Yeah. They don't want to offend anybody or anything like that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Like I did. I just don't want to start, like, rifling off SNL questions if you're like, I.

[Kyle Mooney]

No, no, I do.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Like, I'm multi talented.

[Kyle Mooney]

Chris, this is your time and you could do whatever you'd like with it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

All right. No, but it's your time as well.

[Kyle Mooney]

No, I, I was there for nine years.

[Mavis Beaumont]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And it changed my life.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Nine years. I'm not just kissing your ass. Like, those were my favorite years.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's so rad.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, like, like they were the, the whole time. I mean, and they, they say like, your, your best, like your favorite is like in and around your late teens, early 20s. And that was about, that was for me, when you were there.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's so sick because. Yeah. That means so much and like, truly.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Thank you. Of course. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

I mean, yeah, I, I, my, When I was in. Yeah. Middle school and high school, it was like the feral era and like polar and, and, and all of them and Molly, Shannon, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But yeah, that, that whole experience, like, it's tough to know how people are consuming it or what they're like, kind of reaction is to it, you know? I mean, I know that Tito. I didn't know that you could. To each their own. That's cool. I didn't know, I didn't know they came together as Tito.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I've been saying that, but I've been, I've been. See t I T O. Even though each is e. Just a little inside scoop of my brain.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's right. To each their own.

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. So I could be tedo or tayo.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I just, I've been saying it for years, but the way I see it is like the vodka.

[Kyle Mooney]

You see the eye.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I see the eye when I

[Kyle Mooney]

talk, which would be like. To itch their own.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, to itch their own. And you should really only itch your own.

[Kyle Mooney]

I'm not trying to scratch anybody. That's a. You want to get, you want to get comfortable. Yeah. Okay, here's the, here's. This is a thing that I'm about To talk about the most boring thing ever. I'm excited to itch their own. So you should. Some people say, like, I'm going to itch myself.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Rather than I'm going to scratch myself.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Have you ever itcher or a scratcher?

[Kyle Mooney]

I scratch my itch.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, okay.

[Kyle Mooney]

The itch.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Because you're itchy.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. But you think the itch could also be, like, the act of taking care of the itch.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

No, I'm probably gonna. I'm probably gonna scratch the itch.

[Kyle Mooney]

Am I wrong that people say this?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

No, you're right. And I've just never really put it up. I never really thought of it. Yeah, this is. And then to scratch the itch would be to take.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. To like, fulfilling. Yeah, yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's like a fulfilling kind of thing. And then if you're itchy. I know I'm itchy. Actually, I, I don't know.

[Kyle Mooney]

I will scratch you if you want me to scratch.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, thank you so much, man. And you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours.

[Kyle Mooney]

I appreciate it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's where the itch is.

[Kyle Mooney]

Do you want me to scratch your back?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I think I'm good for now. But, like, maybe, maybe if you're down, like. No, no, no, no, dude. But I'm like, happy to itch or scratch. Whatever you are more comfortable with.

[Kyle Mooney]

We don't have to do. I'm. I just wanted to make sure. I want you to know that if you need it, I'm there. I'm here to supply that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's just so nice, man.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, for sure. Like, that's like kind of what people know me as. The nice guy.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Mr. Nice Guy.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's how I was knowing on snl.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So there was. I mean, you worked with John Radinsky.

[Kyle Mooney]

John Ranitski.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yes, he is also. I think he tries to go by Mr. Nice Guy. What do you think? Do you think if you went head to head.

[Kyle Mooney]

I don't. I did. This is the first time I'm hearing this.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I'm making up, which I don't love

[Kyle Mooney]

because, like, I, I, I feel like nobody's ever that they, that they sort of coined the whole Mr. Nice Guy thing when they met me.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, my God. So he's. He came in rookie one season and then he's saying he was Mr. Nice Guy.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's crazy.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's up because that, because you should. You could ask people around, they're gonna say that I'm Mr. Nice Guy Dude.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And that's what I've heard. I Just wanted to clarify because he's been running around all of New York City saying He's the Mr. Nice Guy.

[Kyle Mooney]

I don't like that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

He could be Mr.

[John Ranitski]

Cool.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

If it's a cold day.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

He's always wearing a sweater that.

[Kyle Mooney]

I think he should be Mr. Cool instead.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I say so. And I think you should. I mean, I would also throw your hat in the ring for Mr. Cool as well. So, I mean, I'm not trying to

[Kyle Mooney]

take all the names.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, well, yeah, you don't want a

[Kyle Mooney]

plethora of names, but I know, like Mikey. Math Stripes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Mikey, Matt Stripes. Yeah. Dude, this is a whole new character that is gonna come out and submerge. Do I do characters? No. But maybe today. Okay, maybe today. Actually, speaking of characters, I have a game.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

says, if you're interested.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, I'm definitely interested.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Hell yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Do I read it out loud?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, because they're very specific.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

They're. They'd be too hard to guess.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. So it's more just for the, like, idea of, like, think.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Let's just. Yeah, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

It's a bit we're making some bits happen.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's a little.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, okay. The character. Okay, this is good. I mean, I've only. I've barely seen a few words. I think this. I. I feel like I can do this.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Hell, yeah. That's huge. More

[Kyle Mooney]

the character is Guy trying to act unaffected after being lightly roasted.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Ooh.

[Kyle Mooney]

Situation. Everyone's discussing other topics, but he keeps trying to find a roast for the guy. That hurt his feelings. He's choked up, but acting cool about it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Okay, so I'll join in with you, too.

[Kyle Mooney]

Are you gonna lightly roast me or

[Grace K. O'Malley]

should I. Yeah, I'll do the lightly rose, and then we'll move on and then. Great.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay, great.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You are. Get a load of this guy, everybody. He is definitely not Mr. Nice Guy. Am I right? Come on. Now. Where are we doing dinner?

[Mavis Beaumont]

Wait, what?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You would.

[Angie Hicks]

Dinner?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

We're probably gonna get dinner later. Yeah, dude, I'm starving. I'm barking like a dog. My stomach's going crazy. So everything cool, man? We were just chilling.

[Kyle Mooney]

No, no, no. Everything's cool. Just. No, no, I didn't hold.

[John Ranitski]

Get.

[Kyle Mooney]

I didn't know. I didn't.

[John Ranitski]

I didn't.

[Kyle Mooney]

I didn't hold. Hold. I didn't totally get the whole, like. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not actually Mr. Nasty. It don't matter. Yeah. Where we're going for dinner.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

All right, man. So, yeah, I think we should go to. You know, we probably go to Pizza Hut. I think that would be good. They're having a good sale right now. You. You cool with pizza?

[Kyle Mooney]

How big are those shoes? How big are your shoes, by the way?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I'd say they're pretty reasonable.

[Kyle Mooney]

Is that a size 900?

[John Ranitski]

So.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Pizza Hut.

[Kyle Mooney]

Has anybody seen these shoes? Wait. She's the size of Minnesota,

[Grace K. O'Malley]

and she. I broke. I forgot the name of the game here. It's hard to play with the guy that makes you crack. All right, that was fucking hilarious.

[Kyle Mooney]

Thank you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

This next character is a guy who says he's leaving. The situation is, you're at a party and this guy keeps telling you he's on his way out soon. You've already said your goodbyes, but people keep coming in that he knows, but they haven't made their way towards him. He's continuing the most boring conversation to keep his presence at the party great. All right. Yeah, so I'm gonna. I'll see. I gotta. I got a whole. I got a whole thing tomorrow, so I can't see.

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, thank you so much. Stop and thank you for the. For this. For the single chocolate.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, no, of course. That's from cvs. You ever been there? Cvs?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. Yeah. Yeah, we got one down the street.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, you do that. I go up to the pharmacy and I drive up there and I get my pills.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, very cool. Well, again, great seeing you and I. I'll see you at the.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

At the.

[Angie Hicks]

At the lake.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

At the lake, yeah. Sorry, what's your name again?

[Kyle Mooney]

Bradler.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Bradler. Bradler Butler. Yes. This will be super dope when we chill at the. I'm sorry. Thank you for having us.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, of course.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I didn't know you knew. I didn't know you knew Stamos.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, we. We actually went to college together. No, huh? Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Wow. You went to Arizona State or something?

[Kyle Mooney]

I did.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Stables. Sorry, sorry. He's a friend of yours?

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, like I said, we went to college together. Yeah. I feel like we still keep in touch.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I think we could have an inside joke, me and Stamos. Stamos and I.

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, you know, good wood floors. Thank you. That's something that. Yeah, maybe I'll mention that, too.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You think he likes guys? Stamos. All right. Do you think he likes guys? Do you think he likes guys?

[Angie Hicks]

Stamos?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I forgot I was a guy character.

[Kyle Mooney]

I have. I have a John Stamos story.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You do?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

This is. Is this pre or post crazy guy, or has he always been a crazy guy?

[Kyle Mooney]

He's just like. He's like. He's like.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

He was a little sporadic recently, and everyone was asking some questions.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, what happened?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I don't know.

[Angie Hicks]

He's just.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

He, like, bulldozed through a red carpet for, like, a movie he did and, like, knocked his kid over or something.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Like, he was like, ah, you.

[Kyle Mooney]

I didn't know anything about it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

He, like, didn't care or something. I don't know. He seems fine now.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, cool.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Well, he was.

[Angie Hicks]

Sorry.

[Kyle Mooney]

He's. I. I feel. I maybe met him once and he was very sweet and. But when I was in college, I had an internship before I got the internship.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Where'd you go to college?

[Kyle Mooney]

I went to usc.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Okay.

[Kyle Mooney]

In la.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And I. I was interviewing for an internship at the Jim Henson Company.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh. Sick.

[Kyle Mooney]

And incidentally, like, I go. And so I go into the reception room, and sitting there, they have a bunch of Muppets. I don't know if you know the TV show Dinosaurs, but there was.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Character. Baby. The baby from. From Dinosaurs was like, kind of like, you know, that's pretty cool.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's like a museum.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Was. Was set. I was pretty floored to see Baby from Dinosaurs, and Seth Meyers was, incidentally, sitting in the reception room. I. And was currently on Saturday Night Live, and I was, like, a really big fan. I was kind of, like, awestruck. And so I was. I was already, like, nervous for the interview. And then, like, there's, like, one famous person there. And then I'm sitting down, and then in through the door. I see through the door, John Stamos walking towards it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh.

[Kyle Mooney]

And he.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

What the hell are all these guys doing?

[Kyle Mooney]

I know this is, like, I'm gonna say spring 2005, maybe big year for the Muppets.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, we're.

[Kyle Mooney]

I don't know. There were also. There were other offices there, so, like, it's possible they were coming. You know, they're meeting with somebody else. Stamos approaches the door. I'm like, this is like, I haven't been in LA that long, and this is. I'm like, I grew up on Full House.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

This is, like, one the most famous person I've ever seen.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's your Uncle Jesse.

[Kyle Mooney]

Absolutely. Yes. For sure. And, like, he tries to open the door, but there's a little bit of a struggle, and it's. And I had experienced this. There was, like, a. Some sort of jam situation. And he finally gets. He finally gets it open, and I'm thinking, like, this could be my chance to say something to John Stamos.

[John Ranitski]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And so I say to him, I say, having a little trouble with the door,

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Into which how he responded.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Is this, like, your first time talking to, like, a big. A big dog like that?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. I think maybe moments earlier, I had said to Seth Myers, like, I'm a big fan of you on the show.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I thought you were gonna say, how about that, too?

[Kyle Mooney]

I'm a big fan of the show. Did you struggle with the door at

[Grace K. O'Malley]

all on your way in here, Dude? Imagine some crazy guys. He comes in next, like, Stamos or something. Wouldn't that be crazy, right, Myers? Wouldn't that be nuts? Dude. Dude, this door, man, that's so funny. Just, like, say, like, whatever you could, and that's. That's what you mustered up.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's pretty much. I. I'm. I'm realizing my head. He was on the way out and on the way in.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Then you go in front of him, you block him. He's like, dude, I just want to warn you.

[Kyle Mooney]

Don't tell the boy. Trust. If all you guys stay right in Here. Okay. I'm about to go to my.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

My interview.

[Kyle Mooney]

I'm take care of you. Okay. Here, let me take you through the back door.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Anything you need, Anything you need. I'm really thinking over to get this internship. Will you come in with me and

[John Ranitski]

like, vouch for me?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Will you vouch for me?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Cuz I told you about your door thing.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, yeah. Then I sit down for the interview. I'm like, so I just saw John Samuel trouble for D s. They're like, you got it. And I did get the job.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Did you?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, that's awesome. So what did you do as an intern there? They made me, you know, Pooper. No, you actually. You actually ended up being a bouncer. Yeah, exactly.

[Kyle Mooney]

I read scripts, but.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, that's cool. That's a fun job.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, no, it was great. It was a cool summer.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And so when you read scripts, like, are you. Are you proofreading them or your people

[Kyle Mooney]

writers are like, submitting them to the studio to be considered for other projects or potentially to have their scripts considered to be produced.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Wow.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then you're. You're doing what's called coverage, and you're like reading the script and then you're writing a synopsis and sort of you rate it, how you feel about it. Probably like on a scale of 10 to something like that. But what's interesting? I hate saying things. I hate it when I say, like, what's interesting?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Interesting.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I straight up interested.

[Kyle Mooney]

100. To me, it's fascinating that, like, as an intern, as like, whatever I was 20 or old, I was sort of the first, like, defense. Like, these were established screenwriters. Like, kind of their screenplays are going through me and I could like, immediately on them and be like, I don't think this is the guy.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I know. It's so crazy because you straight out of college and you just like, probably, I don't know, some college kid could be like, nothing is as good as what I could do. And so they just keep, like, they just xnaying all of them.

[Kyle Mooney]

And I definitely remember Devil wears Prada coming through.

[Angie Hicks]

No shit.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Because I was gonna ask, was there one that came through that you remember?

[Kyle Mooney]

I think it was already. I think it was like, in production maybe or about to be. But like, it was like, consider. Read this for considering the writers. You know what I'm saying? Like, for other projects.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, wow.

[Kyle Mooney]

I remember reading it and being like, I don't really get it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's so funny, dude. That sequel would have never been made.

[Kyle Mooney]

I love that movie too. When I saw it, I was like, oh, okay, cool.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I don't get it. This is some bitch in a magazine. That's really funny. Wow. And holy shit. So then did you move up at that company or did you go somewhere else after that? What was, like, your trajectory there?

[Kyle Mooney]

I did. I did a summer there. That was. I guess that was after my junior year in college. And then my senior year, I did. I got another internship. I wrote. I worked for an agent who represented screenwriters.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, cool.

[Kyle Mooney]

I remember that the most. The big thing that came out of that was this. Okay, if saying that you are aware of my work, I don't want to put you on the spot. There is a bit, a sketch. I don't know how to say skit or a sketch or a bit.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

What is it? Because I've gotten yelled at before.

[Kyle Mooney]

I. I guess I used to say sketch, and people don't like the word skit, but I have no idea.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

They don't like the word skit.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, but that. That. I just started saying bit, and then I wanted. I didn't know whether to say skit or sketch.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So sketch in a bit. It's skit.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, it's slang. That's. I didn't even put that together.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I didn't either until just now. That's. Is it okay?

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, I feel like.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Thank you.

[Kyle Mooney]

We gotta let.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Like. We gotta tell Stamos. He's gonna love that on the phone.

[Kyle Mooney]

So we finally figured out if you

[Grace K. O'Malley]

take the word sketch and put it with a bit. You got scared.

[Kyle Mooney]

And each is spelled with an E, by the way, and some people do

[Grace K. O'Malley]

not like the term.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes, thank you. I was talking about Tito.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, Tito. It all goes back to Tito. Twist it. Romance.

[Kyle Mooney]

What was that? Okay, so. Yeah, so we had this sketch called Dirty Dishes. Have you ever seen that one?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yes.

[Kyle Mooney]

Where, like, I talk in, like, a. I'm like. What do I say? I'm like. They're like, kyle, you got to do the dishes. And I'm like, I'm going to. Why don't you just start marching over? He's basically like a guy, like, talking in a really low voice. Yeah, I take you out, I'll start shooting you all over.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Wasn't that fun?

[Mavis Beaumont]

Whatever.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's like, anytime your mom yells at you. Yes, exactly. Going back to your room, like.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

What'd you say? Nothing.

[Kyle Mooney]

I didn't say anything. Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yes.

[Kyle Mooney]

There was at my sec. My next job, which was working for this agent, he had this assistant who did that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, really?

[Kyle Mooney]

And, like, the the agent would be like, you know, Scott, you. You have to let me know when Mark Reverson is calling me. You can't just tell him I'm on another phone call because he's one of the most important clients. And Scott would be like, of course I know. I was just trying to make sure that.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And he really would do that.

[Kyle Mooney]

No, because if he didn't know, he was. He didn't make clear who it was. And I was just be. And it was a situation like this where, like. Except our chairs were reversed so he was facing a computer over there. Computer over here. And he was just like, I know. Okay, I'm going to. But if you didn't know. Sometimes I actually do my best, and all you can do is your best. But it's not like you ever notice that. And you feel. I feel. I'm like, again, 21 years old.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

This is. Is this like, you're higher up to you?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. Yes. But he was. But I think that. I think his boss thought he was stupid.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And, like, so, like, I'm, like, 21. I imagine this dude is, like, let's say, like, 25, 26, but, yeah. Older enough that, like, he feels genuinely older.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And, like, just being in that situation of being, like, essentially a kid and just seeing, like, a grown man berate a younger man was really up.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It is really crazy.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then I tried to. And then I tried to quit the job because I was like, I don't. I didn't love the way we were being treated.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, okay. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And so. But it took me so long to work up the effort to, like, knock on his door.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, my God. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

To be like, I don't want to be here anymore. And I. It took me weeks.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then I finally got the courage, and I knocked on his door, and I said, sir, I believe I'm gonna leave now. I don't. I don't. I'm not gonna work here anymore.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Believe it.

[Kyle Mooney]

And he said, well, you have to stay here until you find a replacement. And, like, I didn't know how to do that. And so I was there probably for another month or two. Just like. Like, try. Like, I had to get my girlfriend at the time, like, in. Who's, like, in film classes, to be like, can you talk to every kid in your class and try to get them to take over this job?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That is so crazy.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's torturous to me.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. I mean, you're literally. You're talent scouting your own position so that you can be free.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's crazy.

[Kyle Mooney]

You should be able to. I should. It's like, okay, you stay here for two more weeks.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. The two week thing is like the. The courtesy and that's like the respectful thing. And so you're just. It's just so awkward too because you've already told them that you're gonna skedaddle.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

But you can't until you get a replacement.

[Kyle Mooney]

Right.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So you're just there for like a month and a half being like, you know that. I know that I gotta get out of here, but I can't figure out how to get leave.

[Kyle Mooney]

Right. So you have to sort of like, yeah, you're maybe then like sort of like over compensating be like. Just so you know, I do think you're great, sir.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, yeah, of course. It's like. And so like anywhere down the line, you're not gonna say anything nasty, right? It's like, we're cool, right? Yeah, that's. And so who did you end up getting to replace you? Just like someone from the class.

[Kyle Mooney]

I feel like his name is David maybe.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

David.

[Kyle Mooney]

He's a. Yeah, somebody from my then girlfriend's class. Yeah. And then I remember that dude. I. I remember like having to. What would he do that? You know, walk him through the steps.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Like he was shadowing me for a day and he sort of like roasted me. Like it was sort of a situation where I was like, so, yeah, you gotta make sure that we always have enough copies of each script here. And then. Yeah. You know, like I put him over here and he's like, yeah, I could see. I can be. I might end up spending some time working on the organization over here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

What the hell?

[Kyle Mooney]

Fuck you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Shut up, Dink. I'm leaving. I'm out of here.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And this is. This. This was my space. This is my area.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. And you know, and. And I'm Mr. Nice Guy, by the way.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. And that's what I'm saying. They've been saying that. Yes, everyone but John Radinsky.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's crazy. Oh, my God. And it probably started right there. He coined it that way right there at the internship.

[Kyle Mooney]

I believe that was. Yes, I believe that was when, like when everybody decided to coin it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And you're walking out, it's your final day, and the big boss says, we'll see you, Mr. Nice Guy. Right as you walking out. Then you have trouble with the door. Right. And then Stamos picked you up in a getaway car.

[Kyle Mooney]

And now. And now we've made the perfect podcast the perfect podcast.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It has come full circle.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, I.

[Kyle Mooney]

But it might not happen.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, I, I, I. It's hard for me to even, even try here because it's.

[Kyle Mooney]

No, you were. I loved, I loved all, I loved the, all the Stamos bits. And what was the, what was the thing you asked him if he liked it when you go, like, do you

[Grace K. O'Malley]

think he likes boys?

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. Guy you just met trying to push his music career. Character. He doesn't know he's already shown this person his music three times, but is acting like it is their first time listening. He won't stop looking into their eyes for approval. But he also doesn't. He doesn't even enjoy his own music. I feel like there is, like, this guy sort of like a theme here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

These people are obsessive.

[Mavis Beaumont]

Right.

[Kyle Mooney]

They won't let it go.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And the scenario is just a bunch of people just acting like it's all all right.

[John Ranitski]

Right?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. Guy you just met trying to push his music career. He doesn't know he's already shown this person his music three times. I like that you said three times.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Not just many times. Three specific times.

[Kyle Mooney]

So this is the fourth time, which is overboard.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

This is about Carl.

[Kyle Mooney]

Right?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's just a random guy acting like

[Kyle Mooney]

it's their first time listening. He won't stop looking into Their eyes for approval. But he also doesn't enjoy his music. Okay, Guy, I just met you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You've somehow already showed me three times. See, there's a break in this. No, no.

[Kyle Mooney]

By the way, I was gonna. I was gonna ask you. I don't know if you're aware that I'm making music these days.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You've shown me quite a few times.

[Kyle Mooney]

Let me. I actually have this right here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, wow. You know. You know, this might be.

[Kyle Mooney]

Play this. Do you have. Do you have. I'm sure. Should I give you my AirPods or, like, you're. But if I. If I give you. Sorry. If you give me yours. That's a whole thing. To set up the Bluetooth and all that?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, that would be a whole thing. That's what I did the last two times. So I don't know if you remember. Did you ever hit your head up? What's up? Yes.

[Kyle Mooney]

All right, I gotta go. This song. So this song called Is. This song is called we are Blessed.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yes. And I am stressed. I just missed my train. That's funny as fuck. Okay. Okay.

[John Ranitski]

All right.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So, yeah, check this out.

[Kyle Mooney]

Blessed in this world are we. Everyone knows the Earth keeps turning Blessed.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Can I stop you right there?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[John Ranitski]

Atheist.

[Kyle Mooney]

See, and I gotta say, like, sometimes. Sometimes I don't even. Sometimes I don't even know how much I. How much I.

[Mavis Beaumont]

With this.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, but, like, it is. But there's. There are symbols. Well, there's. There are multiple things happening here, so it doesn't matter even if you're not into God or whatever. I'm just saying, like, we're blessed.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yes, yes, I know. I. I get that. I get that. I just. At the last time you showed me, you. You did say that you are God. So you've. You've pivoted to. From. From being God to loving God. So I just. What lane are you in here?

[Kyle Mooney]

Hip hop.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Hip hop. Not really my. My jam. I'm more of, like a classic rock guy.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And I actually.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, good.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

I'm interrupting you, like.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's all good. I just. Yeah. That was the last train to Hoboken.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, right.

[John Ranitski]

Word up.

[Kyle Mooney]

Word up.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That. 30, maybe 40.

[Kyle Mooney]

A copy.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Do you have a copy of that? I could take it to go, maybe.

[Kyle Mooney]

You know what? I. I don't know. I never know how to. Let me just give you the phone.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I says, I'll do you get this back to you.

[Angie Hicks]

All right.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That was awesome. We know it there.

[Kyle Mooney]

There's always moments. Oh, my God.

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I mean, off the. Off the Ripski. I'm. I also. I don't have any. Any training in this background you're doing.

[Kyle Mooney]

I feel like you. You're coming off as a full natural.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

We'll see. I. Maybe I gotta take one of the classes. I gotta take this. I would think I'm gonna do somewhere. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. Are you really?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I think so. Yeah. Actually, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

I didn't. I only made it to, like, 202, and then I stopped doing it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Well, then. Well, then you got. You got the big. I mean, the biggest graduation of all time would be the snl.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. Yeah, but you're. But it's a.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's.

[Kyle Mooney]

We are writing it. We're not fully making it up, but you're right. It is a lot of.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I just did. So you did improv, did you? And then you had a sketch group on the Internet. But were you doing live shows as well? You were. Okay, word. And so the ones that hit at the live shows would be the ones you record or.

[Kyle Mooney]

We did that a couple times. A couple times, yeah. We have a sketch called Outrageous Fun where Beck plays this Australian character, and that one was one that started as a live sketch.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, okay. Gotcha.

[Kyle Mooney]

But, no, typically, the live sketches were, like, kind of. Of more. I don't know, theatrical, like more produced and like, kind of, like props and costumes, whereas the videos tended to be, like, us at our house or something.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Chilling.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

My favorite question to ask is if you do have a group and there's a name to the group, I'm always curious how the name came to be. So how did you come up with Good Neighbors?

[Angie Hicks]

We.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, we had several options or kind of pitches for what our name should be. I think Pizza Party was, like, really high up. Like, was. Was. We're. We were pretty close to being Pizza Party. Good Neighbor was another pitch, and that came from Beck. Threw a house party during college, and it got a little rowdy.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. As they do.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then. Yeah. And we lived in. We lived outside of usc, but just, like, you know, it's like they're st. There's. They were just, like, houses. Right. Like, on norm. Like, suburban streets, essentially.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. So your neighbors are, like, real people. Yeah, Real people that, like, have. Yeah. Children. Yes, exactly.

[Kyle Mooney]

And he lived next to an old lady, and she knocked at his door the morning after the party and was like, I think maybe with her dog. But she held up a cigarette butt, and she said, do you see these? I'm paraphrasing. And he's like, yeah, these landed in my yard. My dog could have eaten these and died. And Beck said, I'm so sorry.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Knees.

[Kyle Mooney]

My dog could have gotten these.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Cause once they get going, they really don't stop.

[John Ranitski]

Right.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Especially when you're against a kid that has nothing to say but sorry. And so they just keep going. It's like, you have no idea what this could have done. Yes.

[Kyle Mooney]

And Becca's like, I promise, next time if we throw a party, I'm gonna have. I'm gonna put a bucket out, and there's gonna be a sign on it that says, put your cigarette butts here. They won't ever get thrown into your. Your yard again.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You know what that is? It's a good neighbor.

[Kyle Mooney]

So she. She's like, thank you, good neighbor.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, wow.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's a good neighbor.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Crazy way to be.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then I feel like it was just one of those things that, like, we would always say to each other, you know?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. I feel like you do something like, chill, like. Like, I don't know. You take the trash out, like, good neighbor. It ends up being a whole bit itself. Yeah. That's really funny. And it all started with this. This poor old lady who moved into the wrong neighborhood.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. But now she's iconic. There's, like, history to this interaction.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And now she's kind of a hero.

[Kyle Mooney]

I would say so. Probably is passed on.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. No. How old was she at the time?

[Kyle Mooney]

I'm gonna guess I feel like. I don't know that I met her. I have such a visual in my head, because we've told the story so many times.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

In my head, she was 80 years old.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. I mean, but here it seems like everyone's living forever.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's true.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. I mean, she could. She could have got that. That. That. That special facelift. The substance, the facelift. Everybody's kind of seeming to rock until they're 101 years old with a rock.

[Kyle Mooney]

Sorry, do you want to be old?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

No. I don't think I have much time left.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay. Are you okay with that?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, we love you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

We'll make it all count, you know, great. I mean, 20s. I am 27 currently.

[Kyle Mooney]

Nice.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So to join the club, I'm running out of time, but we'll see.

[Kyle Mooney]

When is your 28th birthday?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That'll be October.

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

So there's got. I got to make a lot of precautions to make sure that that dream doesn't come true.

[Kyle Mooney]

How many people now is that? Are people still talking about the 27 Club?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yes.

[Kyle Mooney]

Who is? That's.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's Janis Joplin, Janice Joplin, Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix. Jimi Hendrix and Amy Winehouse, I believe.

[Kyle Mooney]

Jim Morrison. I don't know.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Some of them, like most of the comics are actually 28.

[Kyle Mooney]

Is that true?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I've looked it up.

[Kyle Mooney]

Wow.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Cuz it's. I mean if you're gonna go, you might as well be part of something. So do you have a favorite story? Favorite, most crack up, laugh out loud story of all time throughout your career that hap.

[Kyle Mooney]

That like happened to me that I like was a part of.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, I'm sorry, I should have word that better. I'm gonna be in the shower later.

[John Ranitski]

Like.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

No, no, just like your. Do you have like a favorite story of all time that you were a part of that you would tell right now? I was.

[Kyle Mooney]

Well, I told the Stano story.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, no, that one that was lit

[Kyle Mooney]

like, like in the realm. Okay. I just wanna, I want to just like kind of focus it a bit here. This is in the realm of like, like things I've done profess. Like, it's like.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I guess so you. There's a. That hilarious story of when you were starting out and, and just becoming as. As an intern. And then there's. We've got the SNL period. We've got the, the movie star period. We've got the podcast period, the rapper. What's. What's been your favorite part? And is there any crack up stories that you would tell your kids?

[Kyle Mooney]

Okay, let me think about this for one moment. I mean, generally speaking. Okay. I'm going to start general and then refine. I'm going to kind of like brainstorm as I, as I just say. I see you stupid fucking words.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Okay, I got, I got you.

[Kyle Mooney]

I mean I, I told you. Okay, well here's, here's one that comes to mind from the Internet days that I don't know that I've told before.

[Mavis Beaumont]

We.

[Kyle Mooney]

It really was like making YouTube videos. I'm saying the most obvious thing, but it was like, it's just so diy, right?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Like, it was like we were in our 20s, didn't have a lot of money and we wanted to make a name for ourselves. And like, you don't. You don't start with a Leg up in the industry in any way or we didn't have that. Do you know what I'm saying? So it's like, let's just make our shit and put it out there.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And in the same sense, you would put a flyer up to see a show. It's like, I put my work up. Here you go. Yes, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's there for you.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, yeah. And it helped ultimately. Like, people became aware of our videos. And, like, I remember when I first started, like, auditioning for commercials or, like, later than, like, TV shows, you know, you're. You're just anybody in the room. Right.

[Angie Hicks]

And.

[Kyle Mooney]

And there are people who are so good at that. I don't know how much auditioning you've done.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I've. A little here, a little there. Yeah, yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

But, like, I haven't got anything. Okay, we're gonna make that happen now.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yo, dude, come on.

[Kyle Mooney]

Mr. Scorsese, if you're listening. Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It would be such a dream before you croak.

[Kyle Mooney]

Don't say that.

[Angie Hicks]

What?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Thousand and everyone's living till 2000.

[John Ranitski]

I know.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's my grandpa. I wish I see him as my grandpa.

[Kyle Mooney]

That's very sweet. He has that sort of vibe.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, he.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. I remember, like, first auditioning and being very scared. I remember this very specific time where, like, somebody had seen me perform at a show who worked in casting.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, that's always a plus.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. And they're like, oh, you were great. I think you should come in for this part on this TV show. And I got the sides on, like, Friday or something like that, and I had the weekend to learn them, and then the audition was on Monday. And when I got the sides, I was like, I really lived this whole fantasy in my head of, like, booking this part and then inviting people. Like, back then, Facebook was very popular, and there were, like, Facebook events.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And, like, I went through the process in my head of, like, creating the event of, like, Kyle on ABC Family. Dude, come on over. And, like, so I sort of, like, was so far ahead in the dream sequence of, like, booking the part, having people over to watch me on the episode.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You saw it in full fruition. It's like, this is what it's gonna be.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes. And then, like, audition comes, and, like, I'm. I'm here with all these other, like, guys who, like, look like weird versions of me, sort of. Right. Or they're very handsome.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And I get into the room and they're, you know. So I'm in front of, like, four or five people, and they're like, okay, let's do it. And I could just, like, feel, you know, like, my voice doesn't sound the same, and, like, I'm, like, deep in that feeling of anxiety where it's like this. I'm nervous. I can tell that I'm nervous and that I'm not doing my best version.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And you. Then you get extra nervous because you can. You know, that they can tell that you are nervous. So it makes it double nervous. Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And so then, like, I. I did it, and then I was like, they had, like, a bunch of bottles of water and chips. I was like, God, have one of those bottles of water, please. And they're like. And now it's like, okay, well, now I'm obviously nervous, and I'm, like, letting them know that I'm, like, deteriorating.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Or you're playing Mr. Cool Guy. Those are for grabs. Right?

[Kyle Mooney]

Maybe one of your bottles of water, please.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Those are for me. Correct.

[Kyle Mooney]

I chug the bottle of water, and then I got to do the scene again also, just. Again bad.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then my agent had told me, like, call me. Call me when you're done. I want to know how it went. And I call him afterwards. I'm like, hey, that didn't go so well. And I just, like, fully broke down crying on, like, the NBC lot or whatever, wherever it was.

[Angie Hicks]

Oh.

[Kyle Mooney]

But there was, like. That was, like, one component, and it got better and better. And, like, it started. People started to recognize me in rooms from our videos and kind of help my confidence, and I got to sort of just start to, like, be my. What I do. You know what I mean?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Like, breaks a barrier down of, like, you go in not knowing anyone, and then they know something about you, so you're a little more at ease almost. Then what happens next? You did they did. They. Did SNL find you on YouTube? Was that how you got connected?

[Kyle Mooney]

We. Yeah. So there were people at the show who knew of us. Yeah. Who knew our videos. And I auditioned twice. I told this story recently, so forgive me. Oh, I'm sorry, everybody who's listening to all of my podcasts. Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Because you go down a rabbit hole.

[Angie Hicks]

Yes.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's what you do.

[Kyle Mooney]

But I auditioned. The first time I auditioned, in fact, I, like, did this sort of, like, you know, have you seen the videos where I do the interviews?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah. Didn't you, Michaels? Like, so, Lauren. Yes.

[Kyle Mooney]

I pretended like I was hosting Saturday Night Live during my audition, and I said, like, so great to be here at 30 Rockers in front of the Lonnie Mickers Yeah,

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's a crack up.

[Kyle Mooney]

And it as a first impression is hilarious, too. It was the first thing I did. And like, I swear, everybody that I had, like, practiced my little, what, five minutes for, they were like, that's amazing.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It is, though. That's gonna crush. Well, and historically, nothing crushes right in that. So was that your first audition or your second?

[Kyle Mooney]

That was my first audition.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's crazy. They used that for the doc.

[Kyle Mooney]

Oh, it's in the documentary.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

It's in the documentary.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Did you watch. Did you watch that?

[Kyle Mooney]

No, but I remember. I mean, it's in the doc. Interviewed. Okay, that's good. That's.

[Angie Hicks]

Yeah.

[Kyle Mooney]

And then like a year later, you know, they said they asked me to come back to audition again. And, yeah. My agent was just like, just one thing. Okay. Whatever you do, do not do the Lonnie Mickers thing again. Do not address him.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

And you didn't?

[Kyle Mooney]

No, I didn't.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

No.

[Kyle Mooney]

But it was. But also, like, I felt in the moment, I was like, well, come on. I was, like, encouraged by everybody. Everybody thought it was a good bit. Everybody had the.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

The balls.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah. Or the. The. The, I guess, perspective to be like, that's actually probably not going to help you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, yeah. That's the other thing.

[Kyle Mooney]

But in retrospect, it's given me this moment right here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Exactly. 100. And who's to say that this is even good? I. This is a huge favor you're doing for me, so.

[Kyle Mooney]

Are you kidding me? I wanted to drive here.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, my God.

[Kyle Mooney]

Please take a drive.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Underground area. Yeah, the dungeon.

[Kyle Mooney]

Put in the little code.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yes. I never had to do that before. It's super high advance. We're staying here, right?

[Kyle Mooney]

Underneath Cafe Gratitude.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah. That's a cult. That's what I've heard. No, but speaking of gratitude, I am so thankful that you came on.

[Kyle Mooney]

Absolutely.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I really appreciate you doing this and everything you've done for comedy.

[Kyle Mooney]

I appreciate you and I appreciate you saying that. And did you want to read off just what these were?

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, yeah, of course. I think I have. I got a jealous girlfriend character, and this girlfriend's boyfriend is reuniting with someone they haven't seen in 25 years. They grew up together and they're playing a name game to make connections and catch up. You are the girlfriend who thinks the boyfriend is trying to pick up his hometown friend.

[Kyle Mooney]

This is the most elaborate. This one. I actually would need to reread this one.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

This one is a scenario I've seen over and over again. Is the jealous girlfriend and then this

[Kyle Mooney]

girl's boyfriend is reuniting with someone they haven't seen 25 years. They grew up together and are playing the name game to make connections catch up, which is like, oh, how's Ronnie Bendalio doing? Ronnie Bendalio, you are the girlfriend who thinks the boyfriend is trying to pick up his hometown friend. Okay? And I've got person who accidentally joined the wrong Zoom meeting. They're pretending they belong there while slowly trying to piece together what the meeting is actually about. So maybe jealous girlfriend meets a person in the wrong Zoom meeting.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, love this. Love this. This is great. So are you.

[Kyle Mooney]

Why are you.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Are you. What are you. What are you doing? Are you talking to other people?

[Kyle Mooney]

Yes, I agree.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Excuse me. You're always on. You're always on that damn computer. And I just. You're talking to, like, three women all at once, so you better know them.

[Kyle Mooney]

Um.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Shit. What do you mean, shit? I'm the shit. Look over here. Look over here while you're working. I've been here this whole time.

[Kyle Mooney]

I wasn't. I'm not supposed to be on the Zoom. That was pretty abstract.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

I liked that. I like putting them. Mushing them together. That is. That's. We gotta start thinking like that, dude. That's a nice way to do it. So, Kyle, thank you so much.

[Kyle Mooney]

Thanks for having me.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Everybody, watch Kyle's new podcast with Beck Bennett. Everybody go check out old videos like I just did and crack your ass up. And I gotta ask, before I let you go, do you have a favorite

[Kyle Mooney]

sketch you've ever done at snl Or Sorry, skit bit on Saturday Night Live

[Grace K. O'Malley]

or altogether, like, your whole career?

[Kyle Mooney]

My favorite SNL sketch. I feel like that stuff changes. But two I did with Beck were this one called Brothers. I think that's what it's called. We're like, kind of brothers, and we wear these big Looney Tunes shirts and get, like, hosed. And then there's one. I don't know what even what it's called, but. Oh, man, I'm all out of cash. It's like we're on, like, a commercial set, those two. And I really like the. And I said this recently. This video, Beers with Larry David that we did. That's like a fake sitcom.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Oh, that one's awesome.

[Kyle Mooney]

Thanks.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That one rocks.

[Kyle Mooney]

Thank you. And then the Internet stuff.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

That's gonna be sick to work with Larry, dude.

[Kyle Mooney]

It was tight today. It always changes. I. You know what? I'm just gonna say go. He. There's one where I interview people at the heat. I don't even remember what you did.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

You're doing men on the street before like anybody else was doing man on the street.

[Kyle Mooney]

It seems like, I mean to be both Mr. Nice Guy and the first man on the street.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Yeah, dude. And my friend Liam also said that you were the first one to do kind of like a POV kind of thing. I don't know if you've seen people kind of do those kind of characters.

[Kyle Mooney]

Like you're talking directly.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Talking directly to camera.

[Kyle Mooney]

Yeah, I don't think we were probably the first, but we did definitely exaggerate it and it's true. Yeah, I'll take that. There wasn't a lot of it before we were doing it.

[Grace K. O'Malley]

Truly 100%. You missed a nice guy. You're the first to do it. You've got multi talented all across the board and if there's anything you want to plug it right into your own camera, we do first we do a segment called Shout Out.
