Summary

This week, Good One is graced with Saturday Night Live royalty: Kate McKinnon! Famous for her kooky characters and spot on impressions, Kate recently said goodbye to SNL after 11 memorable seasons. She joined host Jesse David Fox to talk about her incredible run; together they go over her repertoire of characters (including a deep dive on the Close Encounters sketches' Colleen Rafferty), Kate tells a silly story about sharing an office with Aidy Bryant, and she tells us what it was like break the news of her exit to SNL creator Lorne Michaels. We laughed, we cried, and we think you will, too. Watch every Close Encounter sketch here and here. Follow Jesse David Fox on Twitter and Instagram. Learn more about your ad choices.
