“Saturday Night Live” Weekend update hosts Colin Jost and Michael Che saw their desk crashed by former anchors Seth Meyers, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler for a “Joke Off.”
The trio stopped by to riff on a woman at a Tennessee hospital who broke a record by giving birth to a 13-pound baby. Some of the jokes included:
*”The baby was so big he slapped the doctor on his ass.”
*”Did she give birth or did the baby drive out?”
*”She broke the hospital’s record and then she broke off her husband’s penis to make sure it never happens again.”
Poehler was the episode’s host, and Fey also popped in during the night’s cold open playing Kristi Noem.
The returning trio spent plenty of time hosting Weekend Update, as Fey was behind the desk with Jimmy Fallon from 2000–2004, with Fey and Poehler taking over from 2004–2006, and Poehler and Meyers helming the segment from 2006–2008. Meyers then hosted the segment solo from 2008–2013.

Elsewhere in Update, Jost and Che took shots at Arby’s (“Arby’s announced that they’re adding a new item to their menu, Steak Nuggets. Although you can make your own Steak Nuggets by eating a bunch of Arby’s.”), Gen Z (“A growing number of Gen Z men are moving back in with their parents, taking over household chores and calling themselves ‘trad sons,’ replacing the old name, ‘failures.’”) and Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (“RFK said this week that men who were circumcised are more likely to be autistic, which isn’t surprising coming from a man who looks like he’s made out of foreskin.”)
