The Not Ready for Prime Time Podcast: The Early Years of SNL
S02E11 Ralph Nader/George Benson (January 15, 1977)
This is a very special episode of The Not Ready for Prime Time Podcast. We have the pleasure of being joined by Doug Hill and Jeff Weingrad, the authors of Saturday Night: A Backstage History of Saturday Night Live. This book is a MUST READ for any fan of Saturday Night Live. They talk through not only the episode with us, but also give some great behind-the-scenes stories of SNL and the of writing the book!
Ralph Nader is our host; George Benson the musical guest. BUT the real news here are the "firsts:" The first appearance of The Coneheads, Jim Downey's first show as a writer, the first time (most likely) Ralph Nader wore a rhinestone jacket. Oh yeah, and first episode with Bill Murray in the cast.
Don't have Doug & Jeff's amazing book? What are you waiting for? Get your copy today!!.
