Goodbye Kate McKinnon, and Thanks For All The Sketches

whatyouneedtoknow.substack.com

Happy Memorial Day! I’m Geoff Plitt, and welcome to What You Need to Know, the brief, weekly newsletter where I share the best comedy videos I’ve seen all week. It will always be free, and you’re welcome to become a friend by following me on Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok, where I share my own jokes every day.

OK, let’s get to the funny stuff:

  1. SNL gave Kate McKinnon a perfect send-off for her last sketch on the show, revisiting her classic alien encounter bit. She’s one of my all-time SNL faves and will certainly be missed:

  2. Another great sketch from last weekend where three co-workers (Cecily Strong, Heidi Gardner, Ego Nwodim) try to cover up the fact that they killed their boss (Natasha Lyonne), Weekend-at-Bernie’s style:

  3. Comedy Central released this fun reel of Hannibal Buress’ standup. Believe it or not, he used to emcee my improv troupe shows back in 2005 in Chicago. He’s come a long way :) Check him out:

  4. Joel Kim Booster, Nikki Glaser, Dulcé Sloan and more comics talk about what it’s like to be single:

That’s all folks! See you next week.

- Geoff
