  • Mike sits down with the legendary comedian and writer Seth Meyers for a conversation that reveals who is secretly the funniest of the funniest at SNL behind the scenes and who was the most popular Strike Force Five host. Then, Mike and Seth work out new material about serial killers, the D.A.R.E. program, and dropping acid in Amsterdam. Plus: who will take over for Lorne Michaels after he leaves SNL?

    Kenan was a Nick kid. He was All That, Keenan and Kel, Goodburger. A show called Kenan. He is a Mighty Duck, a Heavyweight, and guest star gold for any series.
    You all gave him wonderful props for his SNL longevity, but you have to also acknowledge that he was a big fish from day one on SNL and may have been brought in to pull his 90’s fan base.

    P.S. great to see you stimming. As a fellow neurodivergent, I say let your stim flag fly, baaay-beeee!!!

    • @demitasse22
      @demitasse22 Před 2 měsíci

      What does “stimming” mean? I always see it and I’d rather ask someone who does it for real instead of Google.
      Is it like when ppl needed a fidget spinner in 2015?
      Thank you

    • @lb5368
      @lb5368 Před 2 měsíci +9

      @demitasse22 I think of it as anything that relieves the tension/energy I have in my body. It is short for self-stimulation, which is a misnomer because stimming is actually soothing and allows me to help regulate my body and brain so I can function in a world built for neurotypicals. Stimming can show up as lots of different behaviors, from full-body rocking or spinning, to sitting in an awkward postion that puts a pleasant pressure on my joints, to flapping my hands, fidgeting with a pen, or picking at my cuticles. It's part of my self-expression now that I don't mask my autism anymore 😊
      I hope this helps and isn't too much information lol! I tend to say a lot more than people expect when I'm asked about a special interest of mine!

    Hey Mike! You mentioned the cool names of drugs that you learned from the DARE program, so I thought I'd let you know (as a former teacher) that on the annual surveys of drug use they always make up some drugs / drug names so that they can weed out the kids who check "yes" to everything. E.g. "In the past month, have you used boomslang?"

    This is the first time I have ever heard of this Mike Brigabee podcast. I immediately subscribed. Number one Birbigs fan here. Obviously that’s probably not the case due to the fact that this is not the first episode and I am only just now seeing this. But I absolutely love Mike Brigglebobblyboo. Love love love. If you are Mike, thank you for being you. If you are not Mike, also thank you for being you, not Mike. There’s only one. Anyway. Have a good day. Thanks

    I still re-listen to Strike Force Five. It was the 2nd best thing to come out of the strike. Hearing Seth's kids screaming in the background while the others laughed about it, Fallon's disastrous wife quiz, and just all of them enjoying themselves so much and acting like little kids, was such a treat😂❤

    The Traveling Willburys were not all in their 30s. They formed in 1988. George Harrison was 45 (born in 1943). Bob Dylan was 47 (born in 1941), Jeff Lynne was 41 (born in 1947), and Roy Orbison was 52 (born in 1936). The only one in their 30s at the time was Tom Petty who was 38 (born in 1950). Please tell Neal Brennan to stop spreading memes that aren't accurate.
