    LOL. As a former NPR employee, I can also confirm that this is spot-on. Musicians using quirky instruments for the stripped down sets, employees complaining about the noise, and newbies trying to "find their voice," but basically emulating Ira Glass. And yes, there were 30+ year-old interns. Also, props to the set design team, y'all nailed all the details!

It came from another show called Game Changer, where cast members would participate in a game show that was different every time and the contestants would have to figure it out by playing. One of the games was played by Brennan Lee Mulligan, Josh Ruben, and Zac Obama. They have been referred to as the noise boys because they did three episodes together of impressions. Two were before Make Some Noise became its own thing. Zac was given a similar prompt to the snl sketch on a recent episode and they had a disclaimer that they filmed before the SNL episode.

      They only have 3-4 stages free for sketch sets, I think (the other 2-3 are for music guests, monologue, Weekend Update, etc), and some are probably built in front of others to reuse the space.
      But the overall point is that, with all those prop placements, it's not something that can just be moved into place easily, or broken down into a few segments. Even if it was partially set up behind another set in advance, there's still an above average amount of work for something that was put together in a day or two at most.

    Dropout's Make Some Noise did this same skit, not only first but better. They delivered everything SNL did in the same amount of time it took them to present the actual idea in the skit. Each actor in MSN clearly supports each other, each change made is to support the main actor. SNL's cast is fighting against each other the entire bit. This skit is about coherency and cramming in as many things as they can think of. It's fine to find this funny but it didn't really offer anything.
