This week on the show, Jamie is joined by SNL fan Erin Rizok to discuss the addition of Melissa McCarthy to ballot.

McCarthy, a member of the 5-timer club, has all of the hosting bona fides but also adds a number of great cameos to her CV.

Is it good enough to get to the requisite 51% of all votes? Time will tell...

On this week's episode of the SNL Hall of Fame podcast, Jamie is joined by Matthew Ardill to add Michael O' Donoghue to the ballot. Mr. Mike brought an acerbic wit to the show that was sometimes considered Dangerous but he was crucial to getting the show established as it's first ever head writer outside of Lorne Michales. Does he bring enough to the table to be a Hall of Famer though? We'll have to wait and see.

Today on the show, Jamie is joined by Justin Renwick to add Neil Young to the ballot. A fixture in Rock N' Roll for nearly 60 years Mr. Young would add a certain intensity and fire to the Musical Guest wing of the Hall, but will he be inducted? Time will tell.

This week on the SNL Hall of Fame podcast, Jamie welcomes the head honcho of the SNL Network, Jon Schneider into the Hall for a discussion on what makes a Hall of Famer and to add Steve Martin to the ballot.

Although Mr. Martin was a big part of the show throughout the '70s and again in the '90s through the current era, does his blind spot in the '80s somehow diminish his case for Hall entry. That will be for you to decide when voting opens in May.
