Episode Details

SNL alum Jorma Taccone joins Matt Wilstein for a sharp, funny conversation about the new action-comedy he directed called ‘Over Your Dead Body’. They also dig into how Jorma’s Lonely Island’s digital shorts helped develop his filmmaking skills and what it was like diving into bigger, bloodier set pieces while still threading comedy through chaos. He shares behind-the-scenes stories from SNL, MacGruber, and SXSW, before turning to a near-fatal ladder accident that shattered his pelvis and sent him through weeks of surgery and rehab—an experience that forced him to rethink pace, perspective, and creative obsession, while still somehow finding room to laugh at it all.
