Jeff Daniels on bringing stories and skits to life in new season of "Alive and Well Enough" podcast

Emmy winner Jeff Daniels has launched season two of his audio memoir "Alive and Well Enough Continues," featuring stories and music from his decades-long career. The podcast, available on Audible, blends stories, music, and skits, offering a unique perspective on Daniels' journey.

In one clip, the star of "The Newsroom" and "Dumb and Dumber" detailed his 1991 Saturday Night Live hosting experience, where over-preparation met the show's notorious last-minute rewrites. 

"By Thursday night's rehearsal, I had all 15 sketches memorized," Daniels said. "If you have never hosted 'Saturday Night Live' and you are about to, don't memorize all 15 sketches by Thursday night's rehearsal. Cue the rewrites. Pages and pages of rewrites."
