This week’s episode of Saturday Night Live brought its own take on the end-of-year phenomenon: Spotify Wrapped. In a sketch featuring host Paul Mescal, Ego Nwodim, Sarah Sherman, and Andrew Dismukes, the group dives into the world of Spotify Wrapped, where users can see their most-listened-to artists and songs from the past year. While Mescal brags about his top picks, things take a bizarre turn when he reveals that his number-one artist is the obscure and unknown Satoshi Gutman, an anti-instrumentalist from Dundalk, Maryland. The sketch escalates with a comically strange performance by Satoshi (played by Bowen Yang).

The scene becomes even more entertaining when the group asks Mescal about his most-listened-to podcasts, only to find that Gutman once again dominates the list. This time, the audience is treated to a clip of Satoshi’s podcast, “Awakening,” where an unexpected guest makes a surprise appearance. To the delight of viewers, the podcast features none other than YouTube and social media star Trisha Paytas.
Trisha, known for her viral presence and controversial moments, steps into the sketch with her signature charisma. Her brief cameo in the sketch added a burst of energy as she humorously interacted with Satoshi and the SNL cast. Despite her past controversies, Paytas’ natural charm and willingness to embrace the absurdity of the moment made her a welcome guest. The look on the cast members’ faces, genuinely delighted by her appearance, speaks to the unexpected joy she brought to the scene.
While Trisha Paytas’ cameo was short, it left a lasting impression on both the cast and viewers. Her ability to inject fun and humor into any situation was evident, making this unexpected appearance one of the highlights of the episode.
