unflattering to Joe Biden.

Why is all of media piling on him?

I’ve been watching Eric Adams’ press conferences and Chris Redd has the nuances of his character down. I laughed so hard about the pea jacket and the bald sheen. The female character was so funny that I watched the first part twice.

Dish doesn't carry NBC so I haven't seen SNL for several months.
