David talks about making his 20th appearance on our show, his Christmas break, not being great at receiving gifts, playing cornhole with a random guy in Arizona, performing in Vegas with Ray Romano, tipping drivers, his new SNL podcast “Fly On the Wall” with Dana Carvey, and writing a sketch with Tom Hanks.

David Spade is such a smooth and prolific story teller. He told at least four stories in this interview. He is also so relaxed. Cool dude

I hate Jimmy but he let Spade talk. Howard wouldn’t let him get a word in.

It's about time. His fans have been telling him to do a podcast for awhile, especially after Comedy Central canceled his late night show. And Tom Hanks LOVES doing podcasts! I think he's been on every podcast I listen to.

[@RyanMatthewsSounds]

Funny thing. He's had it for a while.

[@megan893]

Agreed, Tom Hanks does all the podcasts, lol

[@ZennExile]

don't encourage his nonsense, he's like 70. Let him go home and sleep.

No matter how old David Spade gets , he'll at least always have the voice of an 18 year old kid

[@eltravo2112]

Whenever I see Spade i think of his SNL Soundbite from SNL Weekend Update "I've Fallen and I can't get up!"

[@KevinRichards-rk3gp]

Lol yes he does sound like an 18 year old kid.

Spade’s the best love hearing him tell stories, especially SNL ones

[@marylhere]

May I suggest his autobiography on you tube. He WAS Joe Dirt but genius.

[@jimmygillard]

I'm a simple man. I see Spade on a chat show, I click. One of the chat show guest GOATS.

[@emmabrooker6059]

So maddening when you witness a comic genius like David Spade and the audience does not follow him and go with him. Give that man his laughs!!!!!! So so so funny. Describing the corn hole show down 🤣🤣🤣 comedy A class.

[@michellealdrich]

One of my all time favorite talk show guests 😊

When it hurts too much for your friends to talk about you, you've done a good job Bob.

I believe Spade took his time when it came to talking about Norm’s passing too.

[@mariepanimdim4303]

I met David Spade like 15 years ago when they rented my office (I ran a location company) since they were looking for a "messy but seemingly well functioning office". He met me an said how long did it take you to make it look this way? I was like uhhhh, this is not set dressing, it came like this. He giggled looked around and then said well done! I was paid $500 to sit in the Thai restaurant downstairs all day and drink Thai beer (yuck) w/my business partner. It was fun & he was so cool.

[@Papafranzis]

That’s awesome. what movie was it for?

[@anniemack6855]

Nancy... GREAT Story!!! 😁😎 LOL. He's verrry cool

What was the movie or TV show that your office appeared in?

[@aHavenForTheLost]

Awesome story. I love hearing stories like this!!

[@petrinasmith6853]

I loved the first episode of the podcast, was laughing in bed, trying not to wake up my husband. I love all the SNL stories, plus they were talking about making Tommy Boy and Wayne's World because it was Rob Lowe on the show, so just great stories all around, plus even Rob Lowe has a Lorne Michaels impression 🤣, so funny!

This podcast concept is very similar to The Carson Podcast by Mark Markoff. He interviewed just about everyone who worked for Johnny Carson, or appeared numerous times on the show. That was a lot of people.

[@kaybirdstexas2501]

The podcast he and Dana do is great

[@cameronrobinsonart]

I absolutely love the podcast. 3 reasons. One is that I started watching us to know in the middle of Dana carvey's and run but the 90s with Chris Rock and Adam Sandler and Chris Farley and laraine Newman was the most treasured time on the show for me. I've watched it consistently sends and it time and time again collects together or great cast and I love the fact that the show has so many renaissance's there is such a treasure Trove of people for them to talk to even if we talk to people they didn't work with they'll have stuff to talk about. Two they actually talk about Saturday Night Live. There's some podcast for people talk about the shows are on and they don't actually talk about the show they just talk about stuff. That's all well and good but I want to hear about the show and these guys talk about mostly SNL but they get into enough other stuff that is still interesting without being too far off their purpose for doing the podcast. Three I enjoy the fact that these two guys have known each other for so long but have had such separate careers that just expands how much they have to talk about. The podcast definitely isn't too long. I think you could be an hour longer but they keep it to about an hour that's probably good. I can't listen to three or four hours of somebody talking unless they're really interesting. Sorry Joe Rogan when you spend 3 hours talking to you and MMA fighter or comedy friend I just can't get into it LOL
