Comedians really have a world and language all their own

Norm is the greatest snl update dude ever period

Never owned a tv until after my 30th birthday in 94. However, I never missed an episode of snl because my friends and often roommates watched religiously. We loved the original cast and were less enchanted until Dennis took over the news desk and Spade, Norm, Dana, Schneider, Sandler and Farley came along. You saved the show and it lives on. The few of us left alive still get together and watch your movies. Loved Spade's talk show but this is even better because I bought my way to no commercials. Keep on and Thanks. Just a few minutes ago I learned Dana lost a son. My heart goes out to his family.

Miller is in his element here. Wish he still had his radio show.

Den-Den's metaphors and non-sequiturs are the absolute greatest. Used to love Dennis Miller Live and his running rants. Dude's just naturally hilarious.

Dennis Miller is a comedic genius.

Brilliant comedian for brilliant minds. And Spade's sound effects on point as usual.

I recall my first exposure to Dennis Miller involved an arcane reference to the character of Hadji from the old Jonny Quest cartoon I watched as a kid. He's had me hooked since that day and obviously hasn't slowed down one iota. Great podcast.

Just discovered this podcast a month or two ago, have watched at least 30 or so. Although you have had GREAT guests, Dennis Miller and Chevy Chase have been my favourites. I just laughed my ass off the whole time!! Not only are Chase and Miller funny as fuck, but the way Spade and Carvey obviously love and revere them is a whole other level of entertaining and heart-warming! Love you guys, keep it up!!!

One of my fave episodes. Just enjoyed the banter and reminiscing with Miller. Good to get a fly's-eye view of the entertainment industry/stand-up comedians from the ground level. Very real and makes me appreciate what it takes, as well as understand a. It about what hundreds or thousands of folks go through who we never hear about. Thanks Dana, David and Dennis!

Dennis has a lot of hilarious nicknames and throwaway insults

I’ve always enjoyed Dennis Miller. He riffs so intelligently half the time I don’t know wtf he’s even talking about!

Tears from laughing, from that Dahmer Joke punchline...Just imagining Norm's delivery...Paraphrasing it was hilarious!

Dana. David. Thank you for this show! LOVE the reminiscing of our comic geniuses.

I can pretend that I am hanging out with 3 of the funniest old friends on the planet! Totally awesome!

One can tell that these guys are buddies in real life. They have such a natural conversation. One can really hear how much Carvey and Spade look up to Dennis Miller. Miller always came off as a bit brash because he was so sarcastic and sardonic, but he sounds like a very nice person. Surprised he gets nervous. Cool that he admits this. Very honest and vulnerable. No reason to be nervous Dennis. People love you. Wishing you well. These guys are so funny. Great show, guys.

Great, all three of you are absolute masters.

Brilliant! Always laughed till I cried when Mr. MacDonald use to join Mr. Miller on his old show! Thanks for sharing gentlemen

Awesome, awesome awesome. What a great convo, I could listen to you three for hours and hours.

30:00 Norm MacDonald talk.

Great podcast guys!! What a great camaraderie between you old friends. Dennis is amazing as well as you guys!!

These episodes are a wealth of information and insight into the comedic process. Many, many, thanks....

Dennis talking about how Johnny acknowledged a bad joke which was funny in itself and that’s one of the things I loved about Dennis’ Wkd Update and his 90’s talk show. A joke would bomb, he’d laugh, wiggle his tremendous head of hair and ppl would laugh. He’s great. Always loved him.

Haven't enjoyed a podcast this much since Norm Live. I love the stories, of course, but also the insights into writing and standup, etc.

Love all three of you guys! Been following you since the early stand up days. Keep up the good works!

It was great listening to all you three just laugh laugh laugh!you guys are so funny together! I love this podcast ! :) My Favorite!

Love this. Thanks for all the laugh’s through the years.

Spade, the Dennis Miller one, kills. I couldn't stop laughing. Kool. Emperor's New Groove rules. Dana you were good too.

One of THE BEST episodes EVER!! Listening to them reminisce about their good'ol days of SNL past. I wish D.Miller would do another stand-up special...he's never held anything back. An absolute genius. Great show guys! Thank you!

This really changed my mind about Dennis Miller. In the past I had the wrong impression of him. He really is a remarkable person and he obviously is admired among his peers.

Thanks Carvey and Spudly!! Love you guys very enjoyable!

I'm a minute in, and thinking this could get confusing with Carvey doing spot on Miller Impressions

Carvey and Miller together is comic gold

@33:45 "Like the food slot in Papillon, they slide the joke under the door" Only Miller can pull a reference like that.

Love all 3 of you guys. 💜 DM is a class act. Great of him to share his climb up and the winding path to get there. Thx guys. 🌼

Great fun! Thank you, gentlemen.

I'm 52, love Dennis, "Jimmy crack corn and I don't care", thanks Dennis, still use that one although I have say, no one knows what the hell I'm talking about anymore. Young kids looking at me like their wondering if I'm having a stroke or something.

Norm calling in to Dennis Miller's show is some of the best off the cuff hilarity ever.. Dennis is funny etc etc but Norm was the rebel. Dennis sold his mansion for 49mil in Santa Barbara. Norm lived in a condo in WeHo... Diff priorities for those 2 comics obv

I watched this Twice in a row! Just too Funny guys. Love you guys! 😂😆🤣

These podcasts have become my new favorite thing...

I saw Dennis Miller at local comedy clubs in San Luis Obispo, CA and Hermosa Beach, CA in the mid 80s (pre-SNL) - I thought he was hilarious, so when I was pleasantly surprised when he showed up on SNL. I remember he had a joke about how ridiculous a Big Gulp was: "Nobody needs 32 oz of any beverage unless they've just come back from the surface of the sun," and "Ronald Reagan is too old to have access to the nuclear codes - my grandfather is younger than him and we won't even give him the TV remote."

Had to stop this several times to find clips of all the old comedians he referenced (Jimmy Aleck, Joe Bolster, etc.). Also, I re-watched a bunch of Carvey's Grumpy Old Man bits and I laughed so hard I cried.

I LOVE your show!

Great show keep it flowing

This was awesome!

Emperor’s new grove is THE best. Family favorite for sure.

I'm 46, I grew up with Dennis, Kevin, and Norm on update. No one has came close since IMO.

David's laugh at 11:44 is too good! You can tell Dennis caught him off guard with a quick one. No big deal for a pro. So awesome to listen to. I didn't give Dennis enough cred in the past. He's really funny.

What a trio, cool conversation. It reminded me of when I used to tape SNL and watch it during Sunday lunch with the fam

I'll be listening to this episode again...and again.

Dennis owned the role of WU anchor, but Norm was NORM. He was in his own category.

Letterman's tie and jacket move was brilliant to always keep people laughing and keep things moving, if something didn't get a big laugh.

You guys kill me.. laughed a lot, I needed that. Thanks!

Norm was the best ever, hands down with Dennis 2nd, in my opinion

This was so enjoyable! Thank you!

Dana’s “Old Man” is Mr. Potter (Lionel Barrymore) from It’s A Wonderful Life.

So good I circled back and listened again 5 months later.

Dennis doesn't want to get off on a rant here. I loved the HBO show, Dennis Miller Live.

To drunk to F@#$ T shirt! killed me

also please release video versions of this. amazing

Some of these I just have to watch or listen to, over and over. I hear something different each time. Talking about people from our youth dying, looking

One of my favorite episodes.

Though his act changed, conversations with Dennis are awesome. I could listen for hours.

I fuckin love it! My three favorite comedians on the same show. Now I know how hillbillies felt seein blue collier comedy fellas::-) I love you guys!!!

😂 "Spudly"!!!

Is there any place we can see this? The visual aspect would enhance the content.

I'd love to see the "Joe Dirt" as an animated series 😁👏🏻

REQUEST: Reboot the Dennis Miller late night talk show, but with Dana playing him.

Wow U three just killed an I thank U soo much!!!

Tiny cops. 😂😂😂 that would have been hilarious

How does this have less than 1k 👍???? Such a gnarly show. If only Norm had gotten on the show.

This is the first time I have heard Dennis mention Norm after his passing. I am sure it isn't but, I actually looked and looked for so.ething drom Miller. I really hope life IS a simulation because these minds really need to be preserved somewhere in the universe.

Dennis Miller on Update, “Chrysler introduces the new Dodge Yak, airbag not included.” Legend

Love every Norm story I can find from his friends. The Dahmer joke must have been the origin of his joke when he's going on about some guy that brutally murdered and ate someone, goes into the grim details and ends with "in other words, this guy was a real jerk" 🤣

Hope you guys keep doing this..

I love hearing these stories.

The guuuuyyyyzzzz .. i can't wait to listen. Brewin tha cawfeeee🎉

I got to go to that show at Winstar in Oklahoma, I was so nervous asking the second audience question about Norm's underwear hanging out his entire set...but I figured somebody had to

Dennis Miller is a legend and doesn't get enough respect. His intelligent humor is unmatched and i hate we rarely get to hear from or see him anymore.

It was hilarious when they did the Jay Leno impressions, i just realized that its very similar to Seinfeld's High pitch voice at certain moments! 😂🤣

The best Michael j fox impression of all time! 11:45 😂😂😂😂😂

Miller and Carvey along with Nealon were a fantastic package tour of standup a few years ago, even took on state fair crowds in iowa and Minnesota

28:55 wine locker 😂

when dana did dennis on update with dennis anchoring update was the best

David has the best laugh!

Oh, wow!😢 My 2nd time listening to this show! I loved it so much! It was like a gut-punch to hear Dex's name this time!💔 I'm so sorry, again Dana!😭 I've been listening all day, just to get away from politics for a while!😰 Now, I'm crying! Thank you guys for carrying on! I LOVE THE "SUPERFLY" POD!🥲🥹😟

I love your show!

The three most cerebral minds in comedy in thought, delivery and reaction imo. And three of my All Time favorite comedians. This was great to hear all the back stories and shared experiences. 😂

I was not expecting Dennis to mention the "man trapped in a box" voice. When you first see the guy do it, it's pretty freaky!

The boys need video for their podcast

Dennis Miller went on an anti-straw rant in a monologue on his HBO show back in the 90s. The main idea was basically "how lazy do you have to be not to lift the glass one inch?" I was like "He's totally right" and I've never used straws ever since, except when I'm in transit.

My strongest impression of Dennis Miller was his participation and being MC for Santa Barbara's Alpha/Slingshot Studio for special needs adults. My brother being one of them. Fuckin' awesome.

Dana's old man bit made me laugh so hard. He does the old man voice in the movie Secret Life of Pets.

I miss Dennis Miller. Always loved his insight and humor

hearing them reminisce about Norm made me smile

Saw dennis live and jay leno...in kc.. incredible

Dana.. how DARE you not mention Norm

Dude WHAT?!!! Yes and YES!!

It's good to hear DM. He is a funny guy. Thank you for bringing him back from the dead!

Dennis lost a very close friend, or family member, in 9/11 and felt the Dems weren't signing up for war fast enough. He got behind Jr43 and became more of a cheerleader than a comic. I liked his books and found him funny so this was a great episode. It focused him on the comedy and I felt it a nice visit.
