I love Bill. He is the shit. So freaking smart and insightful and thoughtful. I love listening to him talk and he is a very good interviewer and interviewee. Tremendous guest.
I have had a massive crush on William for over 50 yrs it started in my teens and look at him still going strong ! Original star trek fan of course, And hes Canadian which is the icing on the cake
When William Shatner mentions that Chris Walken was a tap dancer, I wish someone could have pulled up the video for Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice" where the Walken dances solo throughout the entire video. It was a big hit because people were so surprised what a dancer he was.
Great show, Bill was a joy and as real as it gets , no ego , just Go!! He’s a monster, I hope I have his wit, charisma and sense of adventure if (when) I get to 90
Love it. It's as if "Bill" was a part of the team. Dana's Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas impressions are second to none - gut-busting hilarious. And David's impish laugh cracks me up every time.
Two of my favorite SNL sketches from my childhood (ones we used to quote on Monday at school) are with Carvey and Shatner: 1. Star Trek Convention and 2. The Restaurant Enterprise. Great to hear them together again.
This may be the most 'real' interview with William Shatner ever. He is a force of nature. And in his 90s? Incredible. He's got more energy and clarity than I do in my 50s.
I've never met or talked to a famous actor or actress but I always thought shooting the "S" with William Shatner would fascinating. He seems to have a genuine curiosity about life and knows how to engage. Great interview guys. One of my favorites so far.
One sincere compliment about Spade's acting (and by the way I'd love a definitive answer to which role he was talking about) and it really seemed to kick Spade into a higher gear the whole show. Great interview.
Now you HAVE to book Christopher Walken to find out about the actor mouse - joke or fact. The video with him dancing is Fatboy Slim - Weapon Of Choice.
A Night at the Opera when they are working out the contract and the last thing left is the sanity clause, which is standard on every contract, which is then dismissed as everybody knows there's no such thing as a sanity clause. How great is that...
And those harpies that were cackling and screeching outside the shuttle and every time he tried to say something they were just getting louder and louder. Man talking about nails across the chalk board.
@@melchiorscousin2504 It’s become an increasingly tiny part of what this show is. It’s generally Dana crowbarring the same unfunny hacky impressions into what’s become another celebrity interview podcast.
I watched the original Star TREK when Desilu filmed the shows and they were aired on NBC until 1969. Then those 10 years between- Some fans thought Star TREK was finished, permanently! Amazing, 2023. 57 years since that First series cancelation...!
Two of my favorites together - Star Trek and SNL! Like peanut butter and chocolate…🥜🍫. One suggestion for Dana and Dave (and I know they are not professional interviewers): don’t let the interviewee take control of the interview. Feel like they wasted the first 12 minutes with irrelevancies before they got into Bill going into space.
Just learned of your son Dex's tragic death, so sad ,I can't begin to imagine the grief of losing a child, please accept my deepest condolences and if you need anything (in my neck of the woods l would be more than happy to help you out) again, I'm so sorry and I pray for you and your family to get through this painful time😢
Yes, Curiosity. He is also an active guy who is a master of his trade. I imagine he has thousands of offers for social events, film and interviews. That's good for us WS fans.
Yes so many elderly blame their age to why they can't be sharp anymore, and become bitter old rambling fools, in fact it's just an excuse, any negative immature character traits tend to amplify with age, but it's only because you let them
I mean....North of 90 and talking like this? It truly baffles how coherent he is. Not even is he coherent but he goes from topic to topic remembering all names and nouns and relationships. He is an Alien! lol
A: I would love if this podcast did a Christopher Walken episode. That story Spade tells of Walken is sooo effing funny. Plus, Walken was in one of the all-time top sketches not to mention his Continental character. They have got to get him on. B: Shatner is right, simpler is better with theater performance. That is why I have never been able to appreciate Shakespeare. Way, way, waaaaay too much fluff and flowers. Way too much work for the audience. But, like with sushi, people look at me like I have 2 heads when I say I don't like it.
I watch every single episode you guys put up I started with the Chris Farley rememberance video. I really respected that you had 2 parts to it 💕 Much, much love from the MidWest
Norm MacDonald used to sometimes leave out a word or two from his bits and it's not as funny as when other times when he remembers all the little parts.
The reason the Marx Brothers were funny in their time is that back then, social mores and rules were much stricter, the shaming much more severe about those who transgressed the rules, and class borders were much stronger. The Marx Brothers’ stuff mocked all classes, but especially the snooty upper classes, usually personified by Margaret Dumont, and others. So a lot of what the Marx Brothers - and some others in vaudeville - did in mocking them was shocking and daring in their day. It doesn’t age well because our sensibilities are different now (mostly). When viewed through that lens, they were brilliant.
dude is this guy actually as old as it says? hes as funny as dana/david, hes got jokes, sarcasm - he doesn't sound old at all. I know people in their 70s. They sound old.

As brilliant as he is, I'm pretty sure Bill misused the word "incidences." I think he meant "incicidents" or ore likely "instances," but he combined them to form a word that is actually a word, but not the tight word.
This one is a bit disappointing, only because I'm halfway through and it seems that they all keep driving past each other and either not understanding or not listening to what the other is saying, or going off on a tangent and never finishing whatever the thought was supposed to be. Shatner's used to interviewing, so it seems like he keeps expressing intense interest in throwaway comments like "I believe in UFOs". The podcast is excellent, from the few I've heard, and they're clearly having fun, I guess that it's different since it's not someone they already know really well,
I listen to a lot of podcast with Hollywood people, and I find they are often obsessed with therapy, I guess they need to waste their money somewhere, but I agree with you it's some sort of self obsession which is a turn off
@@publicmail2 well yeah definitely if it helps him in his grief go for it. It just bothers me the way Hollywood people are always going on and on about therapy. I have many friends that were severely disappointed by therapy, me aswell, it's not this great solution they make it out to be, which is worth throwing thousands of dollars into. It's not this magical amazing thing, it's just some random person with a diploma on their wall pretending to care about your whining for money, it's such bull crap imo
Dissing the Marx Brothers, that is heresey!!! Shatner blew it on that one. The greatest writers of the time Benchley, Shaw, Kaufman . . . wrote for them. Duck Soup is still considered one of the best of all time.
The fact that you guys arent doing video IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! I wont partake till you do. There is ZERO REASON to not be doing video on this podcast.

"Mars is a bigger shithole than the Moon" lol I love David Spade.
I can’t believe you got William Shatner! Amazing! Love the variety of guests
Truth but who wants to turn them down?
Shatner is incredibly sharp. I'm half his age, and I can't tell a long detailed story like that. haha
I love Bill. He is the shit. So freaking smart and insightful and thoughtful. I love listening to him talk and he is a very good interviewer and interviewee. Tremendous guest.

The SNL Star Trek skit with William Shatner is a classic!
🎯
Love the Shat! I'll never make it to 91, but man I hope I'm at least half as smart, witty, and energetic as he is when I'm 71.
Whoever does the screenshot pictures is very good, but this one is particularly awesome.

That was the best one. I was sooo bummed when it was over. He is like the dad w great advice that everyone can benefit from
Two of my favorite SNL sketches from my childhood (ones we used to quote on Monday at school) are with Carvey and Shatner: 1. Star Trek Convention and 2. The Restaurant Enterprise. Great to hear them together again.

Great talk!
❤️❤️❤️Bill! He's a genuine horseman also!
Thanks guys for show we need more
I've never met or talked to a famous actor or actress but I always thought shooting the "S" with William Shatner would fascinating. He seems to have a genuine curiosity about life and knows how to engage. Great interview guys. One of my favorites so far.

Great interview.
You guys are hilarious. One of my favorite skits was the 92 Democratic presidential candidates at a Star Trek convention of dorks.
Love the show! I listen to episodes on the drive into work and on the way home.
Spade is hilarious for knowing "no cap."
Great episode! I enjoyed the conversation.
Here from tiktok. Binge watching. Definitely needed this today. The crossover we all needed 🙌🏻🛸
Great episode D and D. Mr. Shatner has been my father figure since 1966.
Just did a photo-op with him at the ST Con. Such an honor.
I just watched his film "The Captains" last night. It was terrific.
Now you HAVE to book Christopher Walken to find out about the actor mouse - joke or fact. The video with him dancing is Fatboy Slim - Weapon Of Choice.
GREAT job guys!
Love the Shat man
So cool. Thank you all!
What a great Episode A+ 👌
A Night at the Opera when they are working out the contract and the last thing left is the sanity clause, which is standard on every contract, which is then dismissed as everybody knows there's no such thing as a sanity clause.
How great is that...
Loves me some Shatner !!!
I love how you can hear Dave and Dana’s thoughts the moment they hear a Shatner mannerism that lends itself to parody.
Enjoyable! “Decades younger” indeed 💫
And those harpies that were cackling and screeching outside the shuttle and every time he tried to say something they were just getting louder and louder. Man talking about nails across the chalk board.
The OG Captain!✌️
Great to hear Shatner talk about SNL for 5 minutes.
It's not all this show is.
@@melchiorscousin2504 It’s become an increasingly tiny part of what this show is. It’s generally Dana crowbarring the same unfunny hacky impressions into what’s become another celebrity interview podcast.
Oh stfu. Beat it if you don’t like it. I love it
Isn't it enough that you have a podcast with two brotherly, handsome SNL vets shooting the sht with each other for an hour?
@@2Less0is0More2 😂 Stop embarrassing yourself
What an absolutely wonderful episode. You could hear the reverence in Dana's voice every time he spoke to Bill.
❤ Bill Shatner ❤

Shatner's Raw Nerve was one of the most unique talk shows ever, and it was a tragedy when they canceled it.
Pretty articulate dude for 90.
92!!
I love how Shatner's difficulty to learn lines became a part of his character's (Kirk) delivery and I adore that he embraces that part about himself.
Just learned of your son Dex's tragic death, so sad ,I can't begin to imagine the grief of losing a child, please accept my deepest condolences and if you need anything (in my neck of the woods l would be more than happy to help you out) again, I'm so sorry and I pray for you and your family to get through this painful time😢
Shatner has many friends but only opens up for a few.
I know a guy that Shatner flipped off, in front of his son, for saying hello. He had worked with Shatner on a film once.
Bill Shatner is in his 90s, and he sounds like he’s in his 50s. What an amazing person. A great reminder that curiosity keeps you young
Yes, Curiosity. He is also an active guy who is a master of his trade. I imagine he has thousands of offers for social events, film and interviews. That's good for us WS fans.
Yes so many elderly blame their age to why they can't be sharp anymore, and become bitter old rambling fools, in fact it's just an excuse, any negative immature character traits tend to amplify with age, but it's only because you let them
Yes. And staying busy, always trying new things.
I mean....North of 90 and talking like this? It truly baffles how coherent he is. Not even is he coherent but he goes from topic to topic remembering all names and nouns and relationships. He is an Alien! lol
So articulate
William Shatner still sharp like a tack.
16:00 O M G he did it! Shatner did Kirk!
The first artist to go into space was actually a rapper named Towkio. No joke!!
Wasn't he a cutie in Judgement at Nuremberg! Whoa.
I’m slowly becoming a shatner fan
He’s actually a great guest
A pasta dish lol💜

Where can you watch these?
Who was interviewing who?
Yea! Denny Crane is finally on.
I watch every single episode you guys put up I started with the Chris Farley rememberance video. I really respected that you had 2 parts to it 💕 Much, much love from the MidWest
Dana. I hear Regis everytime I see that movie title : "We Bought a Zoo". I can't say it NOT like Regis !
Norm MacDonald used to sometimes leave out a word or two from his bits and it's not as funny as when other times when he remembers all the little parts.

It doesn’t age well because our sensibilities are different now (mostly). When viewed through that lens, they were brilliant.
Why is there no video?????
I bet Shatner would charges more money for that, due to the hours of make-up required. A benefit is that they can wear their P.J.'s.
He is Kirok!!!!
Awesome great pod, dope guys. Cool you guys are doing it and can do it
16:03
Wow! 😂
Someone should start a podcast about people’s SNL experiences.
Great interview but the boys interrupt too much.
They always do. I imagine you haven't been back. 😂😂
Commenting early and if he doesn’t do Rocket Man….
well I’m not gonna be too chipper about it, that’s all!
OMG! I love his cover of Rocket Man.
Space may be the final frontier, but its made in a Hollywood basement.
dude is this guy actually as old as it says? hes as funny as dana/david, hes got jokes, sarcasm - he doesn't sound old at all. I know people in their 70s. They sound old.
Many old people just use their age as an excuse because they can't even be bothered to try bettering themselves anymore

Clearly you guys video record these, why not ever release the video?
Jesus Christ, if Dana knew there was going to be video released, he’d be even more insufferable than he is now.
Best thing to wake up to @ 3AM
As brilliant as he is, I'm pretty sure Bill misused the word "incidences." I think he meant "incicidents" or ore likely "instances," but he combined them to form a word that is actually a word, but not the tight word.
This one is a bit disappointing, only because I'm halfway through and it seems that they all keep driving past each other and either not understanding or not listening to what the other is saying, or going off on a tangent and never finishing whatever the thought was supposed to be.

It got better right after, for the most part
Dana gets all his information from Wikipedia.
Did it ebb and wane?
When Dana bring up his therapy, yawn...
I listen to a lot of podcast with Hollywood people, and I find they are often obsessed with therapy, I guess they need to waste their money somewhere, but I agree with you it's some sort of self obsession which is a turn off
@@leob4403 Well maybe now it's ok since his Son if it helps...
