Former 'SNL' member David Spade joked he's so old he recalls a time when he and his colleagues treated Lorne Michaels more as a boss than a friend.

The comedian-actor, who was a castmember on the NBC sketch comedy show from 1990 to 1996, recently told Dana Carvey on their Fly on the Wall podcast that he was shocked by how the show’s new kids speak to Michaels, as the dynamic was much different during his time on the show.

What about at SNL when Sarah Sherman’s like, ‘Then I texted Lorne and said why did my sketch got cut?’ I’m like ‘You text Lorne?’ That floors me… Lorne was giving notes when I was doing Hunter Biden.

Live Lorne Michaels can make or break someone's career in comedy, and he's been doing it for 50 years. That kind of power can be intimidating, but apparently the current SNL cast has managed to cozy up to Michaels.
