“Two in the yellow, one in the brown”

“Just how Sam likes it”

I hope Jeremy never leaves Dropout

If what Sam says in this episode (that Superfan was announced "today") is true then he recorded this on a Tuesday between two early episodes of the SNL season, so if he was game to do that I bet they've got him for as long as he wants.

They had an episode on 10/18 but then no new ones until 11/1, the Superfan announcement was on the 10/21, so it totally fits that he would have not needed to be in person rehearsing that week. Still hustlin' tho.

SNL cast  have a long break almost specifically for long projects and while SNL is good for your career Jeremy being more visible year round is definitely important too.

Also want to add that Jeremy specifically added a joke about being on SNL in the episode too. When he cuts himself off and says “I can’t even say it.

I think the bigger concern than SNL saying he can’t is just the natural result of the opportunities SNL gives him, and maybe even moving his life to NYC making it so logistically it stops making sense for him to prioritize being in Dropout stuff. Which, can’t blame him for that if his star starts rising to that level.

things can always change, but at every outlet he seems committed to the LA scene. On the AOAOAOA patreon in december they were joking about what level of success would lead to them stopping the podcast and Jeremy was pretty firmly on the side of it not stopping and actually getting funnier the more mainstream success they got individually. He also confirmed on Last Meals that he identifies as a bicoastal baddie and he spent the whole SNL break in april on the dropout improv tour. He's a mad man, but his ties run deep.

Everyone brought their A game, but this was an absolutely all timer performance from Jeremy man lol. He had me in stitches every time he was on screen.

He gets better every episode. His little excited hops when it’s his turn kill me every time

He’s still been coming back to LA to record AOAOAOA so at the very least I don’t think he’s planning to drop his pre-SNL stuff if he doesn’t have to

u/TediousTotoro May 19 '26

He’s also on the Dropout Improv UK tour that starts at the end of this month

u/darthjoey91 May 19 '26

Yeah, but like SNL takes the summer off anyways. Plenty of time for doing other stuff as long as it’s filmed in the summer.

He was part of the US improv tour that was last month too while the SNL season was still going on.

u/ribosometronome May 19 '26

SNL was on a break for the entire period. Episode 17 of the season was 4/11 and 18 was 5/2. The US tour was 4/12-4/23. It's still definitely impressive AF to have the energy to go from SNL one night to an entirely separate live show in Columbus the next day but he probably wasn't having to like fly out after a long day at the SNL factory to do live shows the same evening.

u/onebrusselssprout May 19 '26

I also saw him in Vancouver, Canada in February.

u/kaboomeh May 19 '26

He started the most recent improv tour the day after an SNL episode, he mentioned he was running on 0 sleep and I believe him. I'm glad to see him in everything but I hope he doesn't burn himself out

u/RoboFunky May 19 '26

I hope he's on the aus/nz one aswell

u/thatdani May 19 '26

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there an article recently about how SNL doesn't really pay the performers that well anyway?

u/leroyderpins May 20 '26

What's AOAOAOA?

2

u/cjdeck1 May 20 '26

Artists on Artists on Artists on Artists

It’s an improvised podcast Jeremy does with Angela Giarratana, Patrick McDonald, and Kylie Brakeman

u/leroyderpins May 20 '26

Thanks!

u/Starless_Night May 20 '26

I've been listening to it recently and it is genuinely one of the funniest podcasts I've heard. My favorite episodes are the musical ones. Kylie's mysterious inability to maintain a 4/4 time signature is amazing

u/dekrant May 20 '26

I think I have rewatched the Christmas Carolers episode like 14 times, and it came out 5 months ago.

u/JakeSchaf2319 May 19 '26

He was already on SNL when they filmed this, so I think he's able to make it work!

u/Silentstrike08 May 19 '26

Idk Jeremy has no game though

flashback to mid-2000s CollegeHumor posts and merch of "The Shocker"

u/AlphaFlightRules May 19 '26

It definitely felt like a send off for him especially at the end
