Smigel is absolutely brilliant - incredible writer and artist

[@r3tr0actiongamer24]

He’s a comedic genius

[@justayoutuber1906]

Smigel has made me laugh so much over the years. Thank you!

[@johnnygrind77]

I have the Come Poop with Me CD and it still holds up today. The DVD portion is even better!

[@scottkronenberg]

Smigel is the GOAT! 🐐

[@r3tr0actiongamer24]

Imagine Smigel and Loius CK as writers on the Conan show back in the day. Great times

[@madnessontheisland]

I had to immediately pause this interview and go watch the live version of Come Poop With Me. Well worth it.

[@Redmenace96]

He's not as well known as Bill Murray or Eddie Murphy..... but Smigel is a bloody genius born on SNL. Same as above, I start laughing just when I see his face, or hear him talk.

[@Kitty8791]

If anyone wants more Smigel, watch the episodes of Conan's podcast (filmed during the Writer's Guild & SAG-AFTRA strikes) where a bunch of SNL alums do a table read of the Hans & Franz Movie they never made. Hilarious!

[@Fenster74]

Triumph is my spirit animal.

[@sweetrobertos]

That was one of the funniest and best interviews I've ever seen.

[@patrickthomas8890]

Love Robert Smigel. Such a hilarious and brilliant mind. I shook his hand once and it was incredibly soft. You could tell he’s a writer and not a laborer.

[@irishsox1]

He’s a big reason why SNL was so funny in the 90’s.

[@111RAMONES]

One of the funniest people on the Planet!

[@upstatebernie4827]

Triumph should go to an Islander game. LGI

[@dz7a756]

The Chicago accent was SPOT ON 🤣😂🤣! Be well and be at peace.

[@electric7man]

I'm the clucking chicken... Good lord that voice stays with me 30 years later

[@Teabonesteak]

Smigel is comedy diamond.

[@jam1870utube]

Smigel probably has an IQ of 140. Dude is so smart and quick-witted.

[@1surfpickle]

I would love a Robert Smigel+Adam McKay written/produced movie with Will Farrell. That would be comedy gold😁

[@sandyl4100]

He's still a funny storyteller!

[@75YBA]

OH YAAAAAAAYSSSS!

[@djd1121]

"So if you are here, who is at home disappointing your parents ? I kid... I kid".....

[@edub9930]

Triumph my favorite character of all time....for me to poop on 😂😅

[@mimigiggles4199]

Ambiguously Gay Duo, that theme song is stuck in my head forever

[@gregmize01]

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?

[@gmh471]

What's great is his father was a world-renowned dentist. And, somehow, this is what the man spawned.

[@johng.4711]

Triumph!!!

[@franklopez4028]

❤

[@colonialstraits1069]

If I had a dollar for every time I’ve said, “Sony guts”, well you know the rest.

[@mikeyoungblood1642]

I love how Smigel just accepts that yeah stuff i did that was funny in 2002 didn’t age well in 2024 but you can still ENJOY! I still enjoy the old Roasts that are homophobic and insanely offensive but still hilarious cause i know i am not a bigot

[@adamanderson4497]

National treasure

[@etmccaus]

SONY GUTS!!!!!!

[@polarstar]

Is there anything better than listening to Rich Eisen cackle wildly at stuff that isn't remotely funny?
