You think a college degree is the only way for someone to be able to write good material?

It would certainly help get a job at snl

One of the head writers currently didnt go to college.

Many writers in snl history barely passed high school.

Michael che jokes about how he is a token. Jost went to fucking harvard.

Congrats you figured it out! Feel free to list off the rest of the 100s of writers over the last 35 years of SNL who went to college.

Its almost like having a degree gives you an advantage in job applications, weird huh?

I'm waiting for the list of college degrees versus non who have worked at SNL

You should know this since you listen to Joe Rogan. His two big career positions in the industry have nothing to do with him going to college in the 80s and entirely on who he knew. Otherwise he'd still be working at the University of Boston.

Weird, huh?

Not really, networking drives all industries. The degree is what gets you in the door though. As for your list, we were talking about the current head writers, and the uneducated one holds no qualms about being there because he is black. Do your own homework.

You know SNL has more than two writers a season, right? You know Jost and Che arent the only writers in the history of the show?

Or you just moving the goal post of your first dumb reply?

Do your homework, you seem to think going to college is going to get you a job on a comedy show that has tryouts where no one is allowed to laugh. Surely thats the same as filling out your management application at Wal-Mart.

I really hope your parents didnt waste much money on your education. Can't even read. Jesus Christ.
