Wait Wait is just so cringeworthy. It's like they don't even understand what humor is but nevertheless think they're funny. It's atrocious.

You try having to be topical and not going blue for your audience of extremely nice middle aged moms. It's funnier than SNL monologues.

[jononomo → astrange]

Yeah, but SNL is famous for only being funny for three weeks every four years when the presidential elections roll around. I keep forgetting that SNL even exists. I would be embarrassed to be on SNL.

I don't love Wait Wait but its a specific style of humor. I wouldnt call it cringy. It's just probably not going to appeal to anyone under 30.
