This is week, Arielle, Alexei, and Avery pay tribute to the cast and crew’s "heartfelt" reactions to Elon Musk hosting SNL before diving into a discussion on the future of Weekend Update. They get into the bracket they ran on social media, why Ego Nwodim is so many people’s top choice for Update anchor, which writers and cast members might work well with her, and what we hope to see from the segment after Michael Che and Colin Jost depart. Does Andrew Dismukes have a larger purpose on the show after all? Plus, hear the latest news, including a recap of Melissa Villaseñor’s hosting gig at the Film Independent Spirit Awards, and everyone’s favorite struggles of the week.
