Nick uncorks a deep dive into one of Saturday Night Live’s most chaotic and beloved characters: Drunk Uncle. Created by Colin Jost and Bobby Moynihan, and hilariously portrayed by Moynihan, Drunk Uncle stumbled his way through a series of gloriously incoherent rants on Weekend Update. Whether he was griping about millennials, politics, or why everything used to be better, his politically incorrect tirades somehow remained laugh-out-loud funny. Nick shares stories behind the creation of the character, including Moynihan’s own insights into how Drunk Uncle came to life. He also pulls back the curtain on some behind-the-scenes moments and plays back some of the most outrageous segments, complete with colorful commentary. Expect classic cameos too, like Aaron Paul as the twitchy “Meth Nephew” and John Goodman as the even sloppier “Drunker Uncle.” It's a booze-soaked tribute to one of SNL’s weirdest and most memorable creations, and a celebration of Bobby Moynihan’s comedic genius.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
