Wacky Wednesday Comedy Showcase: A Classic SNL Coffee Talk Episode with Mike Myers as Linda Richman

One of Saturday Night Live's most popular recurring features was the Coffee Talk series featuring Mike Myers as his former mother-in-law Linda Richman.

Back in May 1993, SNL started a show with a cold opening skit featuring Myers as Linda getting farklempt because her daughter Robin didn't show up on Mother's Day. She took three calls from Coffee Talk listeners and unleashed a volley of Yiddishisms in the process, while challenging the callers to "talk among yourselves" about two topics.

Enjoy!
