Longtime Saturday Night Live icon Amy Poehler returned to the sketch comedy show this weekend, this time for her second-ever time solo hosting. Poehler's friend and former SNL cast member Tina Fey made an appearance during the cold open to play Kristi Noem to Poehler's Pam Bondi, and it wasn't the only time Fey chipped in for some jokes throughout the show.

During Weekend Update, Poehler came out alongside Fey and Seth Meyers -- all three of which used to host the mid-show news sketch -- to compete in a "joke-off" with current hosts Colin Jost and Michael Che. They split into two teams, going back and forth to buzz in with jokes about the record-setting 13-pound baby born in a Tennessee hospital.

Poehler got things started off with this: "A woman gave birth to a 13-pound baby, which was so big he slapped the doctor on his [expletive]."

The joke-off was a fun way to bring some of Weekend Update's most iconic hosts back to the news desk.
