HuffPost
The "Weekend Update" co-anchor discussed the work that goes into hosting the show during an appearance on the podcast “Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi."
“Saturday Night Live” cast member Colin Jost knows that hosting the sketch comedy series is no easy task.
In Tuesday’s episode of the podcast “Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi,” the “Weekend Update” co-anchor praised actor Adam Driver, who’s appeared as an “SNL” host four times.
Jost told Bozzi that Driver has done a particularly good job at table reads ahead of the live show — something that he said doesn’t always go smoothly for hosts.
The comedian added that hosts have to go through 40 sketch ideas at table reads to prepare for the show.
“To be able to make a choice in all of those... and that’s something like, actually, Adam Driver is especially good at, at the table read,” Jost said. “He makes a choice for all those pieces — and an interesting choice.”
