Colin Jost and Michael Che have been hosting Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update for nearly a decade now and, in that time, the two comedic talents have forged a firm bond. At this point, their relationship is so strong that they can make sweet jokes regarding one’s baby announcement and even exchange one-liners every Christmas. They also pull April Fool’s pranks on each other and, this year, Che really got his longtime cohort at the news desk. And luckily for you, the clip is available to see in its hilarious glory.
Weekend Update pretty much ran normally this past Saturday though, to some, one element may have seemed a bit off. As both anchors joked about the biggest developments of the past week, Michael Che managed to get major laughs, while the reactions to Colin Jost’s were a bit more tame. As it turns out, there was a reason for that because, after Jost made a joke about former U.S. President Donald Trump, Che revealed to Jost that he asked the audience not to laugh at his jokes for April Fool’s. The reveal was enough to overwhelm the confused Jost, whose reaction you can see in the Twitter post down below:
