Hey everybody, I'm Seth Meyers. Do you remember December 17th, 2005? I do, because it's the day SNL first aired the digital short Lazy Sunday by The Lonely Island, a sketch that changed SNL forever and literally started people watching YouTube. And now to celebrate those digital shorts, myself, Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Takone

have a new podcast, The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast, where we're gonna dive back into each of those digital shorts, how they came about, and what else happened on SNL that episode. Basically, Higgins and Shue came, said, whoa, that aired, do it again. And we were immediately out of ideas. We had been at the show maybe two months,

and we were like, we got nothing else. We're going to discuss them in order, which means the good and the bad. And sometimes, if I'm being honest, the bad are more fun to talk about. Should we say frapping anytime we're talking about times when we were performing our lyrics? I think that's fair. Frapping is a term we've coined for fake rapping. Oh, interesting. Find out how the sausage got made, or in this case, how the dick got in the box.

That I was in a corner talking to myself, just being like, what if a present was a dick inside a box like in that movie, Diner? And then Andy was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what'd you just say? The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast, available wherever you get your podcasts. We'll add that later.
