SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE'S SETH MEYERS JOINS THE RADIO SHOW
TUNE INTO THE TODD MCFARLANE SHOW ON MLB.COM RADIO, THURSDAY
Saturday Night Live's Seth Meyers is Todd's guest on this week's Todd McFarlane Show on MLB.com Radio. Seth joins Todd and co-host Seth Everett (so many Seths...) on Thursday, May 15, between 4 - 5 PM Eastern.
Meyers has joined the recurring "Jarret's Room" sketch as DJ Jonathan Feinstein as well as playing William Fitzpatrick, co-host of the Irish morning show "Top O'The Mornin'" he's also contributed notable impressions of Hugh Grant, Russell Crowe, Tobey Maguire and NBC News' Brian Williams and Matt Lauer. Additionally, Meyers, who is both a comic book and baseball fan, has appeared in a few baseball-themed skits on SNL, including a debate with Derek Jeter of the New York Yankees.
The Todd McFarlane Show is on weekly during baseball's regular season, and offers listeners an eclectic mix of sports talk and entertainment, a concept we call "Homers and Hollywood." It's similar to Fox Sports' Best Damn Sports Show Period.
An important note to fans of the show: MLB Radio became a pay product at the start of the baseball season. MLB.com offers several subscription levels, with the basic MLB Radio package starting at $9.95/year. To listen to the show and to get more information about the MLB.com subscriptions, click here http://www.spawn.com/news/events/mlbradio.aspx, to hear past clips and click through to MLB Radio's home page.
FYI, the MLB.com subscription fees have nothing to do with Todd or the McFarlane companies. Todd does the show weekly for free.
