Comedian Dana Carvey knocked his impersonation of billionaire Elon Musk on a recent episode of “Saturday Night Live” during a Friday podcast episode.

“I can’t do Elon Musk very well,” Carvey told David Spade on a recent episode of their podcast Superfly.

“But I can do something that sounds not like anything. He has an incredible accent — South Africa via Canada, via Pennsylvania. It’s almost like, it’s a little bit of Australian in there, a little bit of British, but he’s not totally that,” Carvey added.

Carvey impersonated Musk on an episode of SNL earlier this month, which received some pushback from the billionaire, who slammed SNL in a post on the social platform X.

“SNL has been dying slowly for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality,” Musk wrote in the post on Nov. 10 following the SNL episode, during which the cast jokingly appealed to President-elect Trump following his election victory.

Carvey, an Emmy-winning cast member of the show from 1986 to 1993, is set to return to SNL in December. He has previously gained recognition for his SNL impersonations of President Biden and former President George H.W. Bush, among others.
