Episode 98: Terminally Hip? An “S.N.L.” Writer Shares His Story

This week, Ashley and Mike are joined by three terrific conversationalists: James Wolcott, Marie Brenner, and Alan Zweibel. James gets us up to speed on director Michael Mann’s heart-thumping novel-sequel to his film masterpiece Heat, while Marie takes us inside her riveting new book about how one of New York City’s great hospitals battled and survived the coronavirus siege. Finally, Alan Zweibel, a founding writer of Saturday Night Live and the man behind John Belushi’s samurai sketches, stops by to talk about what happens when “hip” takes on a very different meaning. It’s an episode you won’t want to miss.
