Nick spotlights one of the funniest and most brilliantly observed Saturday Night Live characters ever created — Angel, Every Boxer’s Girlfriend From Every Movie About Boxing Ever. Played to perfection by Heidi Gardner, Angel is a whirlwind of tears, tough love, and hair spray, delivering her iconic line, “I’m taking my kids to my sister’s,” with soap-opera sincerity every time she appeared on Weekend Update. Nick explores the origins of the character, the tropes it skewers, and Gardner’s gift for walking the line between parody and pathos. You’ll hear all of Angel’s unforgettable Update moments, including her scenes with Matt Damon and Michael B. Jordan, plus clips from classic boxing films like Rocky, The Fighter, and Cinderella Man that inspired her. It’s a hilarious deep dive into one of SNL’s most quotable and fully realized characters — and a well-earned tribute to one of the show’s sharpest performers, Heidi Gardner. [Ep 150]
