The Jon Hamm Episode Mar 18, 2025

Show notes

This week The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers revisit "an golden era" episode of SNL featuring Jon Hamm. An episode so good that it deserved a dedicated breakdown. Featuring legendary sketches like Jon Hamm's John Ham, Trick or Treat, and A-Holes featuring Elisabeth Moss and John Slattery. They also do a quick check-in on the Josh Brolin episode because they could not not talk about Fart Face and Andy meeting the real Mark Wahlberg backstage. The whole crew is here this week and Jorma will address the shocking ending to last week's episode.
