Welcome back to our VIP video series "Off the Beaten Path," featuring my friend Christian Toto of Hollywood in Toto! Christian and I start off our week by discussing stories and ideas that may fly under our radar, in culture, politics, sports, and more. Plus, Christian previews his latest podcast at HiT.
Who put something into Lorne Michaels' Wheaties? Since the start of the new season, Saturday Night Live has actually targeted both Kamala Harris and Tim Walz along with Donald Trump. Christian and Ed discuss whether a new cinematic look at the roots of the show may have sharpened Michaels' edge, or whether some interesting demo shifts among young men may have prompted a more ecumenical approach to comedy at SNL. We also take a look at the disasters of Joker: Folie a Deux and The Apprentice, and why both failed to find an audience for very different reasons. Plus: Who speaks for Stanley Kubrick?
Watch it all and join us in the comments!
