      @@kari7403 sorry, I didn't see your comment come in. He looked at me very carefully while I was speaking. He realized what I was saying. He smiled and took it in to his satisfaction, though humbly, and he simply said 'thank you' a couple of times. It was a pleasure to meet him. It was on the set of SNL on a break during rehearsal. I think he did an interview with Kevin Pollack on kevinpollackschatshow.com you might enjoy!

      No thankfully. This was halfway through his run with Nealon's update. He did 8 times with him, this was #4. He did it only once with Norm. He also did it as a opening skit once and returned it in 2019 when he hosted. Good # of times he did it :)
