#FranksFaves: Heidi Gardner, KC’s Saturday Night Live Star

Heidi Gardner is an actress, writer, and comedian who's starred on Saturday Night Live since 2017. From Westport, to LA, to NYC, from the Tivoli, to the Groundlings, to 30 Rock, Heidi has done everything from popping popcorn, to cutting hair, to becoming the longest-tenured current female cast member on SNL. Even though Heidi had doubts on the way up, there was always someone there to give her the support she needed to keep on going. The Kansas City native still calls KC home and reps the Chiefs and Royals proudly, and as the only female host of “The Big Slick” she continues to give back to the city she loves. What a journey it’s been, and she shares it all — yes, even the now-classic break in character during the “Beavis and Butt-head” skit from last season. All that and so much more with Heidi Gardner on this episode of “There’s Just Something About Kansas City.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
