    Note that for Weekend Update, Colin Jost and Michael Che write the jokes for each other, and they don’t see them until they’re reading them live.

        Regular episodes is a combination of their own jokes and jokes from the other.

      The joke swap is a frequent feature, but it’s not a universal property of Weekend Update.
