Desus Nice

You know, we saw Ben Marshall, Jane Wickline at the bottom, Emil Wakim.

Those are all under 15 seconds, including Desus Nice who came in a weird year with COVID on that Chris Rock episode.

And then where Saida is, she's between Aristotle and Paul Britton, you know? People that if you write the history of SNL you might not mention.

And then, uh, Grace Ryder's in, uh, sandwiched between, uh, Morwenna Banks and Beth Cahill, two other people that you probably wouldn't mention in the history of the show.

And they were like, "Yo, we see you do other stuff outside of, like, working here at Bleacher Report.

Like, but, like, we think you could, uh, come on and, and, you know, help write on this, uh, reality show that we're doing with Marshawn." And at that time, I was also, like, you know, really big into, I was, I was doing some writing here and there for, like, MTV and, like, some other, you know, like, you know, pieces of content for them and for TV, and working with, like, Charlamagne and doing Uncommon Sense with, like, Kid Mero and Desus and Andrew Schulz and Zuri Hall and, and all these, like, really dope media personalities now.

And then, um, yeah.

So they were like, "Come do this show with us." [laughs] So I go to live in the Bay Area with them for, like, a, a summer to, uh, shoot this reality show with Marshawn Lynch.
