‘SNL’ Legend Dana Carvey hits Dr. Fauci with stinging impression: ‘I’m introducing the daily COVID shot’
Carvey’s bit of satire had Spade and the rest of the podcast’s production crew laughing out loud on set.
The bit started with the two comedians reminiscing about the COVID-19 pandemic during a podcast appearance together.
Carvey brought up the topic with a sarcastic line, saying, “I miss COVID.”
He replied, “I know! Dude, dude! You know when I knew there was trouble? When anyone that came to our country didn’t have to get a vaccine, and I go, ’If you’re telling me that I can’t go to work, but everyone coming in doesn’t have to get one, I go…’” Spade then made a shocked face as if he couldn’t believe the hypocrisy.
The Biden administration ordered all businesses with 100+ employees to compel employee vaccinations or weekly tests as a condition for employment in 2021, while not requiring detained immigrants at the US southern border to get vaccinated.

Carvey then hijacked the spotlight with his impression of Fauci recommending COVID-19 vaccines and countless booster shots.
Adopting Fauci’s accent, he said, “Well once we found out when Fauci said, ‘OK, I’m sorry, if you’ve had two boosters and two vaccines, you can get and give COVID to another guy who’s had five vaccines and four boosters.”
Pretending to be a citizen asking Fauci a question, Carvey asked, “What’s the difference between a vaccine and booster?” Switching back to Fauci, he remarked, “I don’t know, it’s just more vaccine but booster sounds better.”
Spade let out a laugh as the camera zoomed in on Carvey as he made pulled down his sunglasses and made a goofy face for the punch line.
