‘SNL’s ‘Weekend Update’ Features Overworked Amazon Worker In Ego Nwodim & James Austin Johnson And Sarah Sherman As Feuding Gallagher Brothers

A chaotic “Weekend Update” on Saturday Night Live spoofed an overworked Amazon employee on Prime Day in Ego Nwodim‘s Monica and the Gallagher brothers of the rock band Oasis, with James Austin Johnson and Sarah Sherman playing the two feuding siblings.

First, Nwodim’s frenzied worker tells host Michael Che that her Prime Day experience was great, in the way that Hanukkah is — as in, she “worked 8 straight days.”

“I worked so much, I had to make a whole new day of the week — Fluesday, that’s when you close your eyes on Friday and wake up behind the wheel on Tuesday,” Nwodim said, delivered in rapid-fire speech.

When asked by Che if she had a work-life balance, Nwodim assured him that she did, saying, “Once a week, I order an Amazon package to my own address, just so I could drive by my house and wave to my kids.”

As for the perks for her gig, Amazon bestows vests. Che asks her if those are the only benefits she gets, to which she replies: “What do you mean that’s it? All the most important jobs get a vest: crossing guards, service dogs, lesbians.” When Che laughs, saying that being a lesbian is not a job, Nwodim quips cluelessly: “Well then, why do they do it?”

The last straw comes when Nwodim fakes sleeping with her eyes open. Che suggests she’s overworked, and when she acquiesces, Nwodim queries if he’ll stop ordering from Amazon in solidarity. Well … he side-eyes her, suggesting that’s not going to happen.

Soon, the camera shifts over to co-host Colin Jost, who interviews Liam and Noel Gallagher, who have long been teasing a reunion tour. Over the course of several minutes, Johnson and Sherman adopt outrageous posh accents to feud over past slights featuring the likes of the Spice Girls, bonding solely over their love of the same cartoons (SpongeBob) and favorite of Carrie Bradshaw’s boyfriends in Sex and the City.

“Wembley Stadium, 1993, yeah, we was with Posh Spice, Scary Spice, Stinky Spice — you told everyone I had a crooked nob, yeah, you said my nob’s bended like Beckham,” Sherman’s Gallagher said.

“Listen, I really need your tour to work out ’cause I already bought tickets, and I’m about to mosh out so hard that I win White Boy of the Year Award,” Jost said.
