This Week In Sports: TWIS 10/1/21
Description
In high school, my dream job was to write for Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live. I loved Dennis Miller and Norm Macdonald in the anchor chair. As time passed, I let go of that dream.
When the news broke that Norm had died on September 14, 2021, I felt a hole in my heart.
What does all of this have to do with today's episode? Well, as I was sitting in The Fuzzy Mic studio researching voice coaches, not actually voicing anything, I got sick of researching. I decided I wanted to do my own take on Weekend Update, and so I did.
From start to finish, this 5 minute segment took me nearly 6 hours. I did a shoddy read because I didn't plan on this seeing the light of day.
So, why is it seeing the light of day? Because it was fun. It was fun to create.
Is it funny? Your call. Is it biting? Again, you'll decide that for yourself.
What I do know is that you likely haven't heard anything like this from me before.
