Colin Jost, the white guy, is married to Scarlett Johansson. That’s what made that joke

[@LandSharkEatsU]

Seriously? Respect. Freaking Black Widow- nice! 💪🔥

[@markdenio4537]

It’s also a response to Scarlett “whitewashing” her role in Ghost in the Machine, a movie set in Tokyo.

[@richardsimpson9039]

I love it when Colin reads one of those jokes and yells something like, “WHY???!!!???!!!” or “I’m going to get murdered!”

[@Clasteau]

And then Che acts all shocked and "I don't know why you would do that" or "I wouldn't have said that". :D

[@derekhiemforth]

12:50 - Colin should have ended that joke by just calmly waiting for the laughter to die down, and then saying, "Whatever. I'm still married to Scarlett Johanssen." 🤣

[@seancollins3106]

when they agreed to do the joke swap, they didn't talk about the boundaries and Colin didn't know how hard Michael was going to go!! Micheal's stand up routine is very funny, too.

[@doobiedave9686]

SNL does this joke swap every year on Weekend Update on the last show before their holiday break. They are brutal but funny. 😂✌️

[@DavidJackson-vj2oi]

Twice last show before Xmas and the last show of the year

[@ronnyalvarado8116]

Joke Swaps only happen once a year at the end of the year, but there's also probably a few more since the last one was probably the best one to date imo

[@DavidJackson-vj2oi]

No twice last episode before Xmas and last episode of the year

[@ericcarlson8576]

These guys don’t just work together, they are best of friends.

[@jonenih]

Not really. This segment of joke swaps was the ice breaker for them

[@azuresky96]

@@jonenih They were friends before doing SNL, with one inviting the other on as a guest writer, wtf are you talking about?

[@jonenih]

@@azuresky96 jost was a writer since 04 or 05. Che joined much later like 2014... They were colleagues in the comedy scene prior to jost inviting him to be a guest writer. Not friends. Che always says he ddidmt really know how he came to know Colin but that they have bumped into each other and be working since. They got friendly because of SNL. Wtf are you on about. Bloody friend ship gate keeper???

[@bretcantwell4921]

​@@jonenihThey co-own a ferry. I'd say they're pretty close.

[@jonenih]

@bretcantwell4921 I co own an apartment complex with a man I hate his guts. But had to go into business with because of a shitty economy, and a sports injury that meant I couldn't be sat at a desk or out in the fields doing too much work. I also co own a holiday home with a high school acquaintance that I speak to only 1ce a year for the last 4 years. And prior to those 4 years haven't spoken to in over 20years. He reached out and needed to sell the slot and thought I was the only one he knew at the time willing and reckless enough to just jump in

[@gigi-ij1hk]

In spite of the savagery of this bit, Jost and Che are actually friends outside of the show

[@andrewreynolds7135]

[@luis_g_77]

[@christeasdale1910]

I seen an interview which Michael che where he said that he was expecting Colin to go much much further when they originally done this. That’s he went so hard. Then he realised Colin’s were actually pretty tame.

[@Finnssssss]

Weekend Update is a long standing segment of SNL since the 70s originally started by Chevy Chase famously with the words..."Hi, I'm Chevy Chase...and you're not!" The list of anchors since is a who's who of top comedians accounting for an inordinate amount of all-time SNL moments.

[@allenmccreary2359]

The cue card read “The Harriet Tubman biopic “Harriet” was released last month, and then re-captured and returned to its owner”😂

[@MykalNines]

From 2017 to 2022 Colin and Michael were also head writers of SNL. It's a tradition that Weekend update hosts mostly appear only in that portion and focus on making it tight. Starting with Tina Fey and later with Seth Meyers they also were head writers, meaning they supervised the whole show. It's telling how talented you have to be to get that spot at the desk.

[@amyb1078]

But I think that started with Tiny Fey. I don't think Dennis Miller, Kevin Nealon, Norm MacDonald, etc were head writers.

[@CanadaDan]

Che's jokes were pretty harsh, poor Colin but tbh he's still the luckiest guy on the planet, being married to Scarlett Johansson

[@mikepaulus4766]

How about Ryan Reynolds? He was married to Scarlett through her 20s and then he traded her in for Blake Lively.

[@YanKenPon]

That was until Kendrick Lamar joke 😂

[@gmunden1]

Scarlett has been on Weekend Update a few times. She is hilarious.

[@yugimotobutjacked3231]

If you've never seen the movie Blazing Saddles I'm sure you've heard of it. It's a bit of a rite of passage among movie reaction channels. All the white racist lines where written by Black Comedian Richord Pryor, and all the black racist lines written by White Comedian Mel Brooks. Similar concept

[@kwebb121765]

But I wonder if audiences were aware of that when they first saw it. Might've made a difference in how the jokes were received.

[@satsunada]

If you ever drive through Illinois, you might need to need to take a break from driving and pull off the road on to a rest stop. Places where you can take a break, use the restroom etc. for those that don't know. Anyway, in Illinois, on I-55 N.. you'll find one with a bronze pig out front. That bronze pig won the county fair in the early 1900's. Anyway, you walk up to the rest stop and there's showers, restrooms, 8 vending machines, 8 soft drink machines, and 2 ice cream machines. Everything a traveler might need. Congratulations, you were just at the (and I'm not joking) Trail of Tears Memorial Rest Stop.

[@user-po8vd3dy1q]

Colin finally started getting Che back in the latest joke swaps

[@christinegelabert1651]

I hope you realize that yhey NOT ONLY haven't seen these jikes yet.... BUT they've written them for each other to read. THIS IS a live on air game version of "HOW to verbally torture your brother" but in front of millions of people! I love watching it every end of season! 😂😂😂 #NYGenXBIKERLady

[@emwungarand]

The Woody Allen joke was a blow to Scarlett Johannssen as well. She has worked with him a lot and been dodgy on answering hard questions about his misconduct.

[@masterelmstreet5886]

ALLEGED misconduct. And she hasn't been dodgy AT ALL. She has flat-out stated she believes him when he says he's innocent. And anyone who's done ACTUAL RESEARCH on the case, and not pathetically one-sided, slanderous and dishonest HBO propaganda hit-pieces, would know she's 100% RIGHT.

[@masterelmstreet5886]

It wasn't a blow AT ALL. It was a (successful) attempt to make Jost uncomfortable since she's his wife and she actually has that tragically unpopular but factually 100% ACCURATE opinion about his innocence. It's not even about slamming Woody Allen. It's just about making Jost ultra-uncomfortable.

[@kellifranklin4432]

Allen hooked up with his adopted child. It's really not a stretch that he SA his daughter. Unless you live in that house you can't say 100 percent that Allen is innocent. I bet you think trump is innocent too even though a jury of his peers found otherwise.

[@elbruces]

@@masterelmstreet5886 Found Woody Allen's sockpuppet account.

[@HudaefCares]

I mean, just because your coworker turns out to be a bad guy doesn't automatically make you a bad guy too. And I get the "dodging hard questions" part coz if I was her I wouldn't wanna get asked about him too. Like _"I'm_ not the one that married my adoptive daughter ok?" People aren't perfect, having had a gross guy as a coworker is hardly her fault. ...Unless she's still really friendly with him. Coz that'd be awful.

[@battmale]

There are old Weekend updates with Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin that are very funny also.

[@lawrenceliebman9079]

These two are actually the best of friends. Che was Jost's best man when he married Scarlett Johansen.

[@GhostWatcher2024]

"Why is he wet?" The Weekend Update segment is longer than these clips... sometimes there are guests on the update... atm i cannot remember who was parodying what, but there was a guest that LOVED her wine and kept swinging her glass around and accidentally-on-purpose drenching Colin with the wine (not actually wine though)... this clip MAY be from that episode. Point is there are other things going on that are NOT in these clips.

[@b-six-twelve]

It was Cecily Strong as Fox News’s Jeanine Pirro. That was where my mind went as well.

[@lanmandragoran8337]

"I like being a shockingly white person" ...Oh, thats a bill burr bit about going up 125th at 3am! "As bill burr would say" ....hah, he even mentioned it!

[@clevelandcbi]

"Shockingly Caucasian. If you're not ready for me, I can surprise you!!!" 😂😂😂

[@bidwell13]

15:48 they have so many jokes that involve Yost talking about his wife. These are so funny especially when the other tries to look 100% innocent.

[@Jedicake]

Michael Che is a brilliant writer

[@yugimotobutjacked3231]

Pretty sure the OG pitch on their news segments besides parodying news was the idea that some house mom may catch it in passerby and take it as real news

[@stevescuro8544]

As has been mentioned Scarlett is married to Colin. The extra on that joke was the joke was about Scarlett playing another raced character in a movie. That was referencing the controversy that came up when Scarlett was chosen to play the character from ghost in the shell so to make Colin read that joke about his wife was brutal

[@brianlewis5692]

That was just so wrong on so many levels

[@yugimotobutjacked3231]

Quick Question? Are you using OBS to run your whole scene? I.E little editing on these videos, just OBS it an upload. If true, in regards to elgato camera/webcam I propose two solutions. 1. Buy a webcam/camera less dependent on a capture card to transmit the data to the PC allowing OBS to use it more effectively (Think traditional webcam) 2. Probably the cheapest and easiest, record your Camera/Audio separate, and edit the 'reaction video and audio' on screen in post. Could be a PC or software update but seems more inline with a write speed issue. If you have an SSD, preferably a M5, try moving the OBS instillation to the faster drive. If your running all of this on an older SSD, or traditional hard drive than it's very likely your write and read speeds cannot keep up with the camera. Especially with OBS also using them to write the actual data of the final video.

[@26shedan]

Colin Jost's roomate and friend at Harvard was Pete Buttigieg, current transportation secretary.

[@jennifermolina4396]

[@ramadiii]

[@Tenebris_PR]

This is something they do in New Year. Colin is the white guy and Che is the black guy, this was Colin's idea. There is an interview in which Che mentions that Colin came to him with this idea and told him that it was going to be a good time. Che thought that it was a trap and because of that he wrote the most racist jokes he could think of. The day of the show came up and Che noticed that Colin's jokes were kind of tame and realized that Colin actually wanted to have a good time. That's the last set of jokes shown. The ones in which Colin's keeps complaining about going to be murdered. From that year onwards Colin began to write racist jokes too.

[@johndickinson1605]

If these two didn't have a relationship as strong as brothers, this bit could never occur and be so hilarious. They are both outrageous beyond description. If more of society got along this well, racism would not be such a factor. Don't harbor feelings about race, religion, or sex. But have common sense about the freedoms and rights for the citizens of the nation. Vote for Democracy in November.

[@AngelCam7]

Colin got his revenge in the latest joke swap. Let's just say it has something to do with feuding rappers. 😄

[@mikejaqua4604]

Ash looks like Kristin Stewart, except that Ash smiles and laughs. ❤

[@LukaDonesnitch]

[@joecoffey4199]

The reason they were wet in the last group of jokes was that earlier in the segment someone had done a spit take.

[@brandontruby6366]

theyre best friends thats why its funny

[@josephfernald7933]

I haven't gone through all the comments so I'm not sure if it has already been pointed out or not....so when the concept of the joke swap was introduced Che thought Jost was messing with him so he intentionally made every one of his jokes a bit....shall we say edgy? Hence the lopsidedness at least in the first joke swap. It's evened out in the years since but...well that initial go was very one sided.

[@joeconcepts5552]

Since the show started in the 70s they’ve had the Weekend Update which is basically a news broadcast parody making fun of current events, etc. Lots of big names you guys likely know like Chevy Chase, Tiny Fey, Norm MacDonald, Amy Poehler, and Jimmy Fallon have hosted the show over the years. Though I guess I don’t know which American celebrities make their way across the ocean.

[@TheRoyalFino]

I like Colin and enjoy his regular jokes more than Che's but Michael Che wins these joke swaps every time, lol. Both these guys are great and work well together.

[@j0nt]

He views it as Colin being the lucky one because he knows how that feels.

[@tyseemahbishop6123]

The one where they are wet was a comedian doing a bit with wine and her singing because it was her last show.

[@ladyvader139]

They're wet because they had a guest at the desk throwing liquid around right before the segment. I don't remember what happened in that particular episode, but Cecily Strong used to show up as a character and "accidentally" throw wine on Colin.

[@gigi-ij1hk]

She was playing crazy conservative celebrity Jeannine Pirro

[@japcar84]

[@theonetheonlypcarny5529]

I think because of the context the jokes are used no will get mad about it it’s actually really smart the way they do weekend update
