Will Forte | Full Episode | Fly on the Wall with Dana Carvey and David Spade

[@ashleylorayne3434]

I’ve heard Dana’s stories like a million times by now, let Will talk!

[@LollieVox]

I don’t want them formal & scripted, I want them to be their natural selves. It’s called Fly on The Wall for a reason.

[@bcsemotorworks2462]

​@LollieVox Exactly! Thank you! All these little critics and this podcast lets us drop in on their conversations. Its great.

[@mattmays9063]

It’s worth remembering that at this level of fame and recognition, podcasts like Fly on the Wall often serve a dual purpose. They’re not just a platform for storytelling tailored to the audience-they’re also a way for old friends to reconnect and have an excuse to hang out. The magic of these podcasts comes from those genuine, unscripted moments. Sure, some episodes might lean heavy on the chatting, but that’s often where the most unexpected and personal gems come through.

[@marsthemaker]

One of my favorite episodes. I love you guys. Please get Tim Robinson on the show!

[@randysmith3008]

And let him talk 😂

[@stephengraham7950]

We need a part 2 here. This was 80% Dana. Love Dana…but we need more Will Forte. So much more to discuss. His audition routine alone needs to be discussed. The funniest audition ever.

[@michbenny1363]

It was like that with Fred Armisen as well. Dana is my favorite SNL player but it was a bit frustrating because Will and Fred's era was one of the best. More time is needed for these conversations but as a longtime SNL fan, I'm glad we at least get this.

[@scottcastro9383]

Dana is often annoying with his ability to make 80% of episodes about himself. Even his questions are often a set-up for an opportunity to talk about his own experiences.

[@HighFeeline]

Oh noooo😩I’m just starting the ep and now not looking forward to it

[@stephengraham7950]

@@HighFeeline it always going to be good anyway. They all are so funny. I just want a part 2

[@LollieVox]

@@scottcastro9383 I like them just being themselves. It’s called Fly on The Wall. I want to know how they are in person… just human. Funny humans.

[@mxcope]

Last Man on Earth is one of my all-time favorite series'. It's one you can watch over and ever. Only wish it had gotten another season or two.

[@vanmoody]

I'm in season 2 watching on Hulu. It's very good but quirky a bit in a good way.

[@TurningVeganese]

Will Forte one of my favorite SNL cast members! "The Falconer" and the "oh no!" guy were great hahahah

[@wrinkleneckbass]

Wow, I was thinking Will Forte would be a great guest, and here he is. Thanks guys!

[@Djsavoyyygaming]

There’s almost too much greatness in this podcast at once. Thanks so much for making this means the world and makes living just a little bit better to hear you guys reminisce about great and mediocre old memories lol. Blessings

[@LollieVox]

I know right?? ❤❤❤

[@martinrain312]

I like how they change the words to McGruber to fit the situation - McGruber! His co-workers are buzzing about his incompetence - McGruber! the guy’s a frigging genius, McGruber!

[@Urglerbob]

Out of all the SNL members, I was waiting for Will Forte to be on here some day! What a treat!

[@vanmoody]

One of my favorite bits Will did on SNL was The Falconer. I'll catch myself every once in a while saying, "Oh Donald there is nothing on tv tonight. What we will do?.......That is a great idea Donald. You are such a good and faithful friend".

[@AndyBGravy]

Forte on Tim and Eric are some of the most brilliant and insane sketches.

[@bazookafluke]

Last Man on Earth is one of the best shows ever & should not have been cancelled

[@vanmoody]

That show is a great tutorial on why NOT to lie. He gets in trouble so much on that show for just lying.

[@LollieVox]

These podcast are a needed vacation from the news.

[@JohnLancaster-b5x]

Please have on Dan Akroyd, thank you!

[@midwestdepressed]

and let him talk!

[@michealpahl8523]

I love how spade is so blown away hearing a story Dana has told a hundred times on the podcast.

[@heathband]

Love both of these guys. Geniuses. Love the podcast. It's so funny though that the guest basically has to apologize for interrupting in order to talk or respond. " I'm sorry!, I was just gonna say.." It's no joke how little they think abt just asking some basic questions and... letting the guest actually speak one or 2 full sentences. It's becoming mind boggling. The Shane ep was reeeaaaallly hard to listen to.

[@leob4403]

I dont wanna bash these guys as I like their work but if I were a podcast host I would probably put in a little more effort and actually go through their work. Last man on earth that was such a unique and entertaining show, why do I get the feeling these guys wouldnt watch it in a million years? Macgruber tv show again two seasons have been out for a while great show, do these guys care at all?

[@LollieVox]

@@leob4403I prefer the natural unscripted style of “fly on the wall”.

[@leob4403]

[@mgdubya27]

Agreed.

[@Tkramer27]

Oh and of course please always discuss headwound Harry. Can I get sum!

​@@Tkramer27is Dana becoming that grampa that keeps telling the same stories over and over to his grandchildren? "Did you ever hear about headwound harry children?" Yeees grampa only a million times 😭

[@jjgreen5206]

Neither can David. I think they’re afraid to do the things that make them funny. Impressions and jokes. They’re so tied to the format of randomness that it hurts the show

[@leob4403]

@@jjgreen5206 yeah they should play to their strenghts, they are not Conan nor will they ever be. They need to structure the interviews a lot better, it seems they go in with a few mental notes and thats it. If the interview loses track and meanders away they have literally no way of bringing it back. They are like "heres a few sketches you were in you want to talk about any of them? No? Well okey I got nothing then. Let me tell you about my sketches instead". There are very few people that can rely on their personality and knowledge recall to an extent that they dont need to do much prep work, and these guys arent among those few

[@LollieVox]

@@leob4403they are just being themselves & we are just the fly on the wall- you don’t play to the fly…

This podcast is a great reminder that everyone gets starstruck. No matter how popular they may be, they're still human.

[@withershin]

Will Forte. Never heard of this guy before but since listening to this podcast he's now in my news feed. The AI literally can't bridge my love of "A futile and stupid gesture" because I quit Netflix for 2 years and only pay for the ad version now. You old-school SNL peeps had it made back in the cable days.

[@kenh.5903]

If Will had never done anything else but the movie "Nebraska" I would still be a fan forever.

[@Jenny_Oblivion]

So cool to hear you talk about Jack Handy- love his books

[@bigbysnow6306]

The new macgruber show was so damn funny. His one liners are so crude, dumb and perfect. You gotta see the scene where he’s rigged his warehouse with traps

[@petp13]

This podcast needs to have video

[@brianhayes1760]

Comedians to me are a lot like music in that the stuff that I end up connecting with the most didn’t sit well with me at first. Forte is one of those. He irritated me the first few times I saw him and now I think he’s one of the funniest. He’s also an incredible actor. For anyone wanting to check out his dramatic acting chops watch sweet tooth

[@BobSiefken]

Just watched the Fred Savage SNL ep. Kevin Nealon doing the news from 10ft. away made me laugh so damn hard.

I really find Dana and David funny, but I wish they would just relax and stop talking over their guests. Ask a question, then allow the guest to complete their thought. Also Dana’s impressions make the show enjoyable, but for some reason he doesn’t want to use them. David is great with his cutting wit and snarky putdowns, he should get back to that. Long drawn out personal stories, aren’t these guys talent. Dana was epic on SmartLess.

Except the Lorne Michaels impression which they do over and over and over to the point that Im completely sick of hearing it anymore

If they cut this podcast down to the amount of time the guest is allowed to speak, each episode would be 5 minutes long.

I once saw MacGyver at a Ralph's in Malibu. He was fully denimd out and had a shopping cart filled to the top with nothing but tupperwear. Very strange. What the hell did he need all that tupperwear for! It has tormented me for 15 years! I need to know!

[@leob4403]

He needs tupperware to store his gadgets and a lot of bubble gum, always use bubble gum to get out of a sticky situation

[@MariAntoine2010]

Does anyone else think Will could have nailed Dana’s SNL character Lyle?

[@h20doctor]

Thank you for making me laugh in like the first eight minutes I feel like both of you two knuckleheads are my older brothers but actually I'm fifty-two so I think me and the guy with the mullet are somewhere around the same age but that's okay I still love you... The other guy what's your name again? Anyway we started singing dead or alive and then the sound effect came in and the three chairs spun around omigosh that was just a busted on that one man you are so quick, with the plan ahead in the line it's like instant comedy to destroy off-the-cuff like both of you guys do but the Casey kasem come on that's the million-dollar voice right they're welcome to the top 100 hits
