You gotta love the SNL weekend update host throwing a nod to Norm McDonald there.

Can we just send Colin places and watch him report as he tries to escape.

His delivery is perfect. And the timing and pausing around the weird smiles. I can’t tell if I’m jealous of Scarlett or him, really

RIP Colin, you may have been racist but you were a treat at the WU desk ❤️

u/Squeebah Aug 12 '24
Wait.... What did he do that was racist?

u/Comfortable_Loan_799 Aug 12 '24
Jost and Che always write jokes for one another at the end of the SNL season and Che’s jokes, which Colin has to deliver, are always (jokingly) racist. The point is to make Jost super uncomfortable and to exploit as a punchline the fact that he looks like such a WASP. Just google Che-Jost joke swap for an example— the segments are pretty funny.

Thank you for context! No one else was able to provide let alone with this much detail. I appreciate you.

I can't wait for Michael Che and Sarah Sherman to make fun of him on WU on SNL this Fall.

Yeah, I may have to go over to r/OutOfTheLoop on this one later today. (To everyone reading this thinking, why don't you just do a search right now? I'm already sidetracked by looking at this, and if I go look that up right now, I'm never going to get on with the key part of the vacation I'm on. Was looking up where to go next so that I can make plans before checking out, and Reddit took me down the rabbit hole again.)

Colin got a job as a surfing correspondent for the Olympics in Tahiti and almost immediately hurt himself not just bashing his foot on some coral but then still walking around in his bare feet. He then got a staph infection in his foot which continued to worsen until he had to leave Tahiti. He’s been giving regular self-deprecating updates on it. Now he’s in Malta, where Scarlett is possibly filming a movie.
Moral of the story is to be careful with your bare feet, especially when you’ve written an entire book with actual chapters about how injury-prone you are.

u/Tejanisima Aug 12 '24
Thank you so much for the update. That's both hilarious and tragic. Getting an infection in your foot is nothing to play around with; twice in my 30s I had a tiny little blister that I didn't properly put a Band-Aid on and ended up with a raging cellulitis infection. We don't take nearly enough care of our feet, given how vital they are to our mobility.

u/nia939 Aug 12 '24
Oh yeah, as someone with small fiber neuropathy I am very careful with my feet! Hopefully Colin learned his lesson lmao, at least he was wearing shoes in this update.

u/DazedDreamer023 Aug 12 '24
This was a funny spot that he did, but in all seriousness, I was genuinely relieved to see that he is apparently okay. Even though I don’t know the man and will never meet the man, I’m a worrier, so it was a little concerning to me that he was reporting things going downhill, health-wise, over several days, and then radio silence.

u/nia939 Aug 13 '24
Yeah I was genuinely a little concerned, especially after he gave an update, after his foot was already infected, still barefoot. Bro!!!

u/Captain_Blackjack Aug 12 '24
Man literally got one of the cushiest jobs ever, made fun of the cushiness, and some how kept getting injured/infected

Don't blame humans for that! We tried filling it with that face wash with exfoliating micro-beads.

u/Bromato99 It's that thing where a midget... Aug 12 '24
If you like this you will LOVE the chapter of his book where he visits Google and... Holy shit. That's all I'll say. If nothing else that chapter of his book is sensational.

u/_cassquatch Aug 13 '24
His book is a must-read. I listened to the audio book which was even better. That chapter had me howling, and I couldn’t stop listening to the chapter about his mom being a hero on 9/11

I don't think it was intentional, but his delivery really sounds like Dan Toomey from Good Work on Youtube.

Dan Toomey needs to be a Daily Show correspondent. His long form stuff is ripe for the daily show.

Does anyone remember when Bob Costas got a terrible case of pink eye covering the Olympics? Jost should have him on WU and they can compare notes.

I'm staying at the Intercontinental in Malta this winter. I'll look to see if the Maltese people have erected a statue of beloved Colin Jost. RIP

We need Colin to do more on-scene reporting. Especially during hurricane season. Watch out, Jim Cantore, there's a new Crown Price of Climate Catastrophe.

*sighs deeply*
My dude. Corals are animals, and they don't like being stepped on. Many corals can deliver a venomous sting that can do anything from hurting a little bit to incapacitating you with temporary paralysis, blindness, and even death, especially if you already have an open wound for the toxin to exploit.
For example, I saw many people at my old fish store job be taken away in an ambulance because they ignored my warnings about Palytoxin. Please don't mess with soft corals; what they lack in a hard shell, they more than make up for in deadly poison production.

u/nia939 Aug 13 '24
Yeah, he was actually pretty lucky. I have neuropathy and I was horrified by his foot hygiene 😭 Healthy people don’t know how good they have it and then they make it bad.

u/Garyflamshells 27d ago
We have to use the feets to stand on. Just because there is new tech to aid walking, actual born with feet should not be underestimaed

His delivery here is really reminding me of Jim Carrey in Bruce Almighty, not in a bad way. It's stilted in a way that he isn't on Weekend Update

Who is this and why are we supposed to want an update on his foot?

Are you unaware you're on an SNL sub, viewing a video about a guy who's on SNL?

The guy from weekend update for the past 8 years or so.
But I agree, idk what the foot thing is about
