When did Paul Mescal host SNL?

What did Shaboozey perform?
Shaboozey performed “Good News” and “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” according to the Los Angeles Times recap. Peacock’s recap singled out “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” describing a stage transformed into a dive bar. The staging gave the performance a barroom setting rather than presenting it as a bare concert set.
What were the episode’s comedy highlights?
A standout set piece drew on Mescal’s role in Gladiator II: a musical song-and-dance number built around the film. The Boston.com recap also noted the Gladiator-inspired segment. It is a notable highlight, not a complete account of every sketch in the episode; the cited recaps do not establish a full sketch-by-sketch running order.
