SNL’s Cecily Strong and Bowen Yang on Jeanine Pirro, the Titanic Iceberg, more

SNL Emmy nominees Cecily Strong and Bowen Yang join The Awardist to talk about Bowen’s historic nomination — the first SNL featured cast member to be nominated. They take us inside some of their most memorable season 46 sketches and characters, including Jeanine Pirro and the Iceberg that sank the Titanic. Cecily also addresses her future on the show, the two tell us what it’s like behind the scenes moments before the show goes live, how their approach to comedy changed and responded to everything happening in the world, and so much more. Plus, co-hosts Kristen Baldwin and Gerrad Hall break down the comedy guest actor and actress categories, where SNL guest hosts fill many of the slots. Can anyone beat Maya Rudolph and Dave Chappelle?
