David Spade reveals secret Norm Macdonald stand-up special could see home on Netflix: ‘I definitely cried’
Fox News
David Spade said Wednesday on his podcast that Macdonald did a run-through at-home standup comedy performance at the height of the pandemic. Spade maintained that he saw Netflix camera crews at Macdonald’s memorial service last week, which led him to believe the special could be included in a project of some kind.
"I definitely cried," Spade said during Wednesday’s episode of his "Fly on the Wall" podcast with Dana Carvey. Spade said Macdonald recorded the set just eight months before his death in September at age 61 after a bout with leukemia that the "Saturday Night Live" alum kept under wraps for nearly a decade.
According to Spade, Macdonald filmed the set at the height of the pandemic while at home alone as theaters and comedy clubs remained shuttered amid sweeping lockdowns.
