We're talking to you from Los Angeles. Yeah. That's where I am. That's where you live now. I know. I know. It's weird. 80! I had a moment today where I was like, I was just excited about talking to you and just thinking about, I know this doesn't sound very basic, but just like the women of SNL. Like just like, you know, there's, there's not, there hasn't been as many as you think. No, totally. It's, it's like a major crew of cool stars and girls. It's true. Like, I think you and I were at a photo shoot and somebody, I feel like we were at the same photo shoot when someone said the number of cast members of SNL and it wasn't a lot. Totally. Also, I don't know, I felt this at the 50s where like, then when you have kind of everyone in the room, not counting the hosts, you're kind of like, this is little.

And, and you and Kate McKinnon, our guest today, they're at the same time and the people, especially the women that you are there with at the same time means, means a lot. So tell everybody, when did you guys start, when did you start and we starting at the same year or when did what you. Well, it's, she had kind of a weird thing where she started like five shows at the end of the previous season. My Rudolph did that too. My has started at like the end of a season, which that seems like so stressful to me. I don't, I kind of don't know how she did it because she also like came in alone in that moment. But I think Kate and I, we shared an office and also just we both are like scared and I think we both were also like, we like are both extroverts for our jobs, but I think we're both kind of secretly like introverts who like to be quiet and hidden.
