The comedian addressed his departure on the Jan. 7 edition of the 'Las Culturistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang' podcast

Bowen Yang has finally explained why he bowed out of “Saturday Night Live.” On Wednesday’s episode of his podcast “Las Culturistas,” which he co-hosts with his friend, comedian Matt Rogers, the “Wicked” actor got frank about his surprising exit from the long-running sketch show after seven seasons.

Bowen Yang is opening up in an "exit interview" on his podcast about his recent departure from "Saturday Night Live."

The former 'Saturday Night Live' comedian said he won’t “snitch” on who also abused prescription pills on the NBC sketch comedy show's set while discussing dating Kenan Thompson’s ex-wife, Christina Evangeline.

Regarding the final sketch where he played a Delta One employee working his last shift, Yang said he cried during the table read the Wednesday prior and admitted that it was “completely self-indulgent” to be able to have the character say goodbye – something other former cast members didn’t get.

Former “ Saturday Night Live ” star Chris Redd posted an emotional video to his Instagram on Tuesday morning, in which he admitted to selling pills to his fellow “SNL” cast members while on the show.
