Paul McCartney's Great Advice for Bill Hader's SNL Anxiety 

I like to picture Paul McCartney with Angel Wings singing lead to Lynyrd Skynrd & I’m in the front row & im HAMMERED DRUNK

Man. That'd be awesome.

he probably is

It’s easy if you try.

YES SAME

FlashakaViolet that was so funny and classic Hader style 😄😂

Same vibes as "I love your work too...Tom Cruise" 😂

Or talent.

Says a ton about Lorne Michaels credibility. He was just trying to give Hader in a second if he didn't deliver than blame it on the executives upstairs.

@@TryMyMartini I was also gonna say talent. He knew he needed him. There's literally nothing this guy can't do... Amazing actor! My number one, along with Sacha Baron Cohen.

Lorne did the exact same thing when everything went down with Norm MacDonald when he got fired from the show. He's a legend whose always stood up for the people he loves and respects.

you know he doesn’t say that to most cast members

Now THAT'S good advice!

He didn’t get the American bogey word right - water.

@@Volvican the way he said water kinda sounded aussie 😂

Well Paul doesn't way water right either!!!!

Sounds like something I ought to try.

I wonder if they even deal with anxiety more than regular people, since they actually force them selves to get up and perform

@@TheWorld_2099 Most actors will tell you that they have butterflies in their stomachs. However people who suffer from the actual mental Illness of anxiety will tell you that they have Condors in their stomachs!

radar0412 - that’s a great image... Condors

Ya I know, Paul McCartney gives me advice all the time too... lol

A New Chapter - he did warn us that he was going to do the “ultimate name drop“

For real. I get panic attacks that are exactly as he describes. The fuzzy head unable to think clearly, need to pace etc. Whats funny is that a doc told him to have a drink which is actually really helpful. Both alcohol and common anxiety medicines affect the GABA receptors and help you relax a bit.

Have you ever tried Bill Haders trick and intentionally screwed something up; just a bit?

@@3207SuzyQ sorry this is kinda late but i do theater and i haven’t done this directly, however, one time my scene partner messed up her line and i had to improv it then later in the scene my solo music didn’t start on time so i had to improv again and i found that i was oddly calm when improving before my solo and i think it was because i already had to improv so i think i indirectly did what he was talking about

Mario Donaldo Mendoza Pineda all his impressions arr

I just watched a couple, his Alan Alda is perfect, his Harvey Fierstein is spot on.

Would you expect anything else?

Come on man ,this is the king of impressions you are talking about .

I came here to say this. I couldn't even believe how good that impression was.

He's from Oklahoma! ; )

MazBringsby I know right? He’s like a person you just want to hug and hangout with all the time. He actually, reminds me of one of my friends who’s no longer my friend anymore. :(

Seth Belfort - and you know that because you’re his backstabbing friend?

Seth Belfort - you’re referring to Weinstein...there’s only one Weinstein...so how are you making such a claim?

Seth Belfort - duh...so again, what are you? An insider who ‘knows’ what Bill Hader knows, and you’re the ‘bummer guy’ talking about his relationship with Weinstein?

That's 73 million people actually.

Not to mention the serial killing.

Lynn Turman 👍

"Scrambled eggs?"

close...

Let it be, LET IT BE-EEE, let it be. let it be.

But the movement he needs is on his shoulders.

S S he talks about it all the time

@tahliashaye is typing complete words that taxing for you?

@@calisongbird is typing your name that taxing for you?

The difference is Bill Hader is funny and a great performer

Except Pete Davidson is unlikable, so nobody cares how he feels.

@Joe Momma Agreed. His dad was too busy saying "Oh shit, it's falling on me!"

@Joe Momma dude has trauma ? And diagnosed BPD. Kids funny and talented he wouldn’t be there if he wasn’t

Me too. I worry constantly and can never sleep. I can't remember the last time I was able to fall ( and stay) asleep without the use of medicine. It's been decades.

speaking about sleeping i'm half awake and my eyes fucking hurt

I had an anxiety attack yesterday because I had to get like a tax permission or some shit like that and I have a serious discalculation disorder and I couldn't understand what they were saying so I started crying and my heart rate was insane and it freaked me out even more so when the guy told me that crying won't help me I actually screamed at him "can't you see I'm scared right now? I can't control it." And then I took two beta blockers and actually explained to him what they were and only then he realized how serious it is and actually helped me work out the issue that got me to that place to begin with. But my point is, I'm 27, and before Bill came and talked so openly and so courageously about his fears I never dared to talk about it either, I was ashamed of it and thought that people wouldn't understand anyways so why bother explaining (that part is still true, by the way. Only people with real anxiety know what it feels like to have your brain on lockdown) But hearing him talking about it and seeing people's reaction to it truly inspired me. I was so scared to talk about it that I only went to a doctor for anxiety medication a few months ago, and now I'm actually TELLING people that I have anxieties so I need their help and their patients with me and that's why I'm acting weird. And that wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for him. He was sent here.

@@weasley2o13 I hope it's getting better now! I noticed your comment on another video. I suffer from anxiety too, it's getting a lot better after 4 years of therapy, I've learned to set boundaries and I feel fine. Just to tell you there's hope. The thing about meditation works, too.

Obey The Law agreed completely :) my GAD has definitely made me tap into my creative side a lot more.

You also work on SNL?

psdstorm Yes, that's Keenan

What you should do is calm your mind and body down. Caffeine releases cortisol, the stress hormone, and puts you in fight-or-flight mode. Magnesium everyday is a great way to calm. Add in some holy basil, ashwaganda and rhodiola. Deep breathing is free and really helps to trigger the parasympathetic nervous system.

No Luxury Brown, SuperCar IS literally Bill Hader, everyone know that
