Speaker 1: There he is very is how's it going everybody?
Speaker 2: Now? Look, Dan and Joelle have both changed up their backgrounds,
Speaker 2: and you appear to have a dress case you might
Speaker 2: wear today hanging.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, what's that dress for you?
Speaker 1: It's not for me? First of all, hold on, how
Speaker 1: are you?
Speaker 2: I miss you?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: Well you don't because you started off with some type
Speaker 1: of rude shit.
Speaker 2: You know what was rude about saying, is Casey gonna
Speaker 2: wear that dress that's hanging?
Speaker 1: It's a very When I said she wasn't gonna wear
Speaker 1: that today, you automatically asked if it was for me?
Speaker 1: Right now? I am one who doesn't mind dress is
Speaker 1: hanging in the background. You, however, seem to have a
Speaker 1: phobia of it.
Speaker 2: I think my point was in the spirit your dress
Speaker 2: a phobia, in the spirit of everyone changing their backgrounds.
Speaker 2: All three of you have a new background, and you
Speaker 2: do not know you're not drinking coffee.
Speaker 1: I've turned over a new leaf. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you know this, but.
Speaker 2: It's time for another leaf. What leaf did you turn
Speaker 2: over this morning?
Speaker 1: I've turned forty six? Yes, Donald, thank you, everyone, thank you.
Speaker 2: This will get bearing late. Everyone, but Donald's birthday was
Speaker 2: the twenty second.
Speaker 1: Yes, and I turned forty six years old. And I
Speaker 1: want to thank everybody for all the love that you've
Speaker 1: given me. And I want to say to all my
Speaker 1: fans out there that listen to the podcast and all
Speaker 1: of Zach's fans that listen to the podcast, it's working.
Speaker 1: Come join the dark side. Oh yeah, combine strength, we
Speaker 1: can rule this galaxy.
Speaker 2: I saw a lot of talk on my Instagram about
Speaker 2: how everyone needs to follow Donald and some girl wrote
Speaker 2: you need to help Donald get more followers because he
Speaker 2: quote caught feelings or something like that. I thought that
Speaker 2: was a funny question. Did you catch feelings?
Speaker 1: Who doesn't catch? I always catch, always catch feelings?
Speaker 2: You got feeling about it? By the way, your wife
Speaker 2: slid into my DMS today because she was not happy
Speaker 2: with the picture I posted a view. It's an old picture,
Speaker 2: by the way, obviously, because we're lying on a chaise
Speaker 2: lounge together and it's we're in quarantine. But Donald was
Speaker 2: during one of his heavier periods and his wife slid
Speaker 2: into my DMS to be like, why are you posting
Speaker 2: that picture of top?
Speaker 1: She said? She said to me, she said, did you
Speaker 1: see the picture of Zach posted I was like, yeah.
Speaker 1: She was like, he couldn't crop anything.
Speaker 2: That's what she said. She said, you couldn't get a
Speaker 2: friend he could out and do some cropping.
Speaker 1: He couldn't have cropped that. I was like, crap. What
Speaker 1: she was like, your belly?
Speaker 2: Oh shit, well, I didn't know. I love you so much.
Speaker 2: I didn't notice that you were in that picture having
Speaker 2: a large belly. Time.
Speaker 1: He looked very handsome and thank you very much. Wife.
Speaker 2: Your wife was like crop that ship?
Speaker 1: Yeah right? And and and you know, I I think
Speaker 1: everyone out there deserves someone like I have. I have
Speaker 1: a wonderful woman who uh is very supportive and takes
Speaker 1: care of situations that I might be a little bit
Speaker 1: uh you know, apprehensive to no, no, no, yeah, you know.
Speaker 1: Instead of me being like, well why did Zach post
Speaker 1: that and get upset at Zach, I'll stay away from
Speaker 1: the confrontation and the conflict. Whereas my wife's like, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: we ain't letting that shit slide. What's what's what's Zach's number?
Speaker 1: And she will call you on. She's like the mom.
Speaker 2: I know some people that are very gifted at photoshop.
Speaker 2: If you want, I could, I could take off some
Speaker 2: pounds from that picture for you.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I like, I mean, I think all
Speaker 1: of me is beautiful.
Speaker 2: I can extra, I could paint in abs.
Speaker 1: No no, no, I think I think all Like I said,
Speaker 1: all of me is beautiful, even the extra. Just ask
Speaker 1: my wife.
Speaker 2: You know, it's funny that we're starting off a little
Speaker 2: bit confrontational because in this episode, do you remember what happened?
Speaker 2: We got in a fight. We got in probably our
Speaker 2: first fight.
Speaker 1: I don't remember when.
Speaker 2: This was during the lasso thing in the ICU fantasy
Speaker 2: because I was pulling you too hard, told me way
Speaker 2: too hard, and you screamed like a like no, don't.
Speaker 2: I got hurt because you were fucking really legit yanking
Speaker 2: me across the ground with your lasso.
Speaker 1: And you were like, don't pull me so hard.
Speaker 2: No, And then we got in a fight, and I
Speaker 2: think the rest of that scene we're like not speaking
Speaker 2: to each other.
Speaker 1: Really, you don't remember this.
Speaker 2: When I watched this episode, I went, oh, that was
Speaker 2: like our first time we got in a legit argument.
Speaker 2: And then we had to like do the rest of
Speaker 2: the scene, I think, and we were did.
Speaker 1: We make up before the rap party? Because right after
Speaker 1: this we moved to New York together.
Speaker 2: We must have dude. I think it was like a
Speaker 2: few day TIFFs. We had a few day TIFFs.
Speaker 1: What have you been doing with your time? You went
Speaker 1: away for a bit? What did you do the gallon?
Speaker 2: I went to Joshua Tree to get out to go
Speaker 2: to the desert.
Speaker 1: Did you get out? Did you see anything? Did you
Speaker 1: see rattlesnakes?
Speaker 2: We saw lots of bunnies. I think they're bunnies. Hairs
Speaker 2: are large, right, I didn't know if it was a
Speaker 2: hair or a bunny. I think it was a bunny.
Speaker 1: I think a hair is really large and bunnies are
Speaker 1: really tin. I don't know, man, there's jack rabbits two
Speaker 1: that are.
Speaker 2: Listen the puppy. Everywhere the puppy went, it was getting
Speaker 2: cactus thorns. Are they thorns in a cactus? Yes? All
Speaker 2: over its paws. So we didn't know what to do.
Speaker 2: So we got baby socks and we put the baby
Speaker 2: socks on the puppy. But the baby socks kept falling off,
Speaker 2: so then we got rubber bands and tied them around
Speaker 2: the top of the baby socks so their booties would
Speaker 2: stay on the dog's paws.
Speaker 1: Did it cut the circulation? Off of the dogs.
Speaker 2: Why not, idiots? Dude. It wasn't like super tight, but
Speaker 2: we did it so the socks wouldn't fall off. So
Speaker 2: then the dog is running around with four little babies
Speaker 2: ox on because we must have done Oh man, there
Speaker 2: was the the you can't bring a dog to Joshua Tree,
Speaker 2: or if you can, you're more experienced dog owner than
Speaker 2: we are. The dog couldn't figure it out. We couldn't
Speaker 2: figure it out.
Speaker 1: Wait, so you took you you brought your kid on
Speaker 1: vacation with you. Pretty much, yeah, that's what you do. Well,
Speaker 1: you could have kindled the dog and then.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, well I don't mind a kennel for
Speaker 2: an older dog. This is I mean, especially the kennel
Speaker 2: we go to as like they run around and they're
Speaker 2: and they're free and they're not like caged, and I'm
Speaker 2: down with that. But but more often than not, I
Speaker 2: would sooner get a house sitter, some a friend of
Speaker 2: mine too, or my my assistant to stay here and
Speaker 2: and take care of the dog here. But we it's
Speaker 2: our baby, so we you know, you wouldn't want to
Speaker 2: leave your newborn. It's like our newborn. So we brought
Speaker 2: it to the Desert. But it was a mistake because
Speaker 2: now I know in hindsight, they sell like legit dog boots.
Speaker 1: Oh, you need to get your dog some elevens man
Speaker 1: some Jordan eleven and.
Speaker 2: That would be so funny. By the way, if they
Speaker 2: made dog Jordan's, I would, or dog easies.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean the easies might be a little
Speaker 1: bit more expensive than the Jordan elevens.
Speaker 2: You know, dog easies would be hilarious. I would if
Speaker 2: anyone makes those on like Etsy, I'll take them. But yeah, no,
Speaker 2: they'd make legit dog booties. But we didn't have those,
Speaker 2: so we we we jerry rigged some baby socks, made
Speaker 2: a trick to a giant Walmart. We gloved up and
Speaker 2: masked up and went into like the biggest Walmart.
Speaker 1: So what is the deal? I thought you didn't necessarily
Speaker 1: need to glove up anymore.
Speaker 2: I don't. I'm just I'm just I'm just trying to
Speaker 2: be as serious. You know, cases are spiking here in California,
Speaker 2: so I'm trying to be as serious as possible.
Speaker 1: But is it okay? This is what I read and
Speaker 1: I could be wrong, Dan Joell, please jump in if
Speaker 1: I am wrong, and if I'm right jump in as well.
Speaker 1: But I was under the impression that a lot of
Speaker 1: the spike that we're having in California, this all could
Speaker 1: be propaganda, are delayed tests that have finally come in,
Speaker 1: and that we're testing more people than most states, and
Speaker 1: so because of that.
Speaker 2: But the President is broadcasting that.
Speaker 1: No, I wasn't. I didn't get this from the President.
Speaker 1: I got this from California. Actually, the president's broadcasting, yes,
Speaker 1: that we are getting spikes because of our testing situation.
Speaker 1: But California, from what I was told, was we had
Speaker 1: at least from what I heard from Newsom and what
Speaker 1: I heard from Garcetti and all of that stuff like that,
Speaker 1: is that we had flattened the curve and we were climbing.
Speaker 1: But we were climbing because more tests were coming in.
Speaker 2: Well, let's test Dan, He's very knowledgeable, Dan, you honor me.
Speaker 4: You know, we are definitely. Donald is certainly right that
Speaker 4: as we test more, we are seeing more positive cases.
Speaker 4: I think the measure of wearing gloves at places like
Speaker 4: the supermarket, I think is not necessarily over as you know,
Speaker 4: you're bringing your germs out into the world, and who
Speaker 4: knows how many of those cans someone has already touched,
Speaker 4: et cetera. I mean, I think all safety measures are good.
Speaker 4: The best one you can take is not touching your
Speaker 4: face before you come back and wash your hands and
Speaker 4: yeah right, we wash.
Speaker 2: Our stuff too when we go to the grocery store.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I'm here.
Speaker 2: We we spray and wash everything down because you don't
Speaker 2: know if someone with COVID took that off the shelf
Speaker 2: and was like, oh, I don't need it, and then
Speaker 2: you grabbed it exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the but from what I heard, from what
Speaker 1: the CDC said, and from what a lot of doctors said,
Speaker 1: it's not necessary. You can't necessarily get it from surface contact.
Speaker 1: It has to be it droplets and airborne. From what
Speaker 1: I understand, I don't know if that's true. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is this is what the CDC is saying.
Speaker 2: I know, But don't be fucking steering our listeners wrong, because.
Speaker 1: You're like, I'm not staring anybody. I'm not steering anybody wrong.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying what I heard. I don't know.
Speaker 2: What about Djokovic. Huh, what about Djokovic?
Speaker 1: I know Djokovic got that ship, dude.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because he's fucking partying with his like and doing
Speaker 2: like sweaty chest to chest hugs.
Speaker 1: Really do you saw this for you know this for
Speaker 1: a fact.
Speaker 2: I read this on the interwebs that he there's video
Speaker 2: of him raging at like some I think it was
Speaker 2: a Croatian tennis tournament. And then at that tournament they
Speaker 2: were doing like after the match, like sweaty naked chest
Speaker 2: to chest hugs. Wow, and now he's out. He's about
Speaker 2: to start a tournament, right Dan. Was it the French openers?
Speaker 1: I think so? Yeah, he can't ship. He got the
Speaker 1: he got that ship.
Speaker 2: Now are they here? I don't want to upset Bill.
Speaker 2: Are they in the room?
Speaker 1: Can't hear you?
Speaker 2: Damn domin Mic Ironically, the tech wizard can't figure out
Speaker 2: his new fucking mind. It's okay, let's have a party.
Speaker 2: It's the final episode of season one. Hey, I love
Speaker 2: that she's representing Hi. How Charlotte Lawrence, that you're representing
Speaker 2: with your Charlotte Lawrence merch always Now to remind our listeners,
Speaker 2: when COVID began, Christa told Bill that he would be
Speaker 2: She set up a guest room in the house and
Speaker 2: she said, Bill, that's your office. You're allowed to come
Speaker 2: out for lunch. But you worked there nine to five, now, right, Bill.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not. I don't think she was even comfortable
Speaker 3: to the idea of me venturing out to do this together.
Speaker 3: So I still have to stay down in here.
Speaker 5: Well, Bill wanted to be in my office together doing it,
Speaker 5: which would have been squashed and he would have stopped
Speaker 5: hugged me, so I said.
Speaker 6: No, he's gotta go downstairs.
Speaker 1: We were hoping to get a stop hugg on this.
Speaker 2: Listen. I want to tell you that, Bill, this is
Speaker 2: so annoying to me because it involves shit that you've said.
Speaker 2: But they sent us, you know, merch options for the podcast,
Speaker 2: and there's like one hug that says stop hug. There's
Speaker 2: another mug that says five to six seven eight. I'm like,
Speaker 2: this is all the fucking Bill's jokes.
Speaker 3: Here's the this is the real. I appreciate this. The
Speaker 3: five six seven eights. I think that's funny and that
Speaker 3: doesn't count as one, Dan, But.
Speaker 2: I am the boss of this show.
Speaker 1: We didn't even get into two minutes of the.
Speaker 3: Wants to be the first one to do the song
Speaker 3: before the song so the but what but what bums
Speaker 3: me out is that stop hug is a real and
Speaker 3: cherished thing, and now it's a joke that's out there,
Speaker 3: and I don't like that at all. I don't like
Speaker 3: other peoplesh joking. Yeah, it's I think it's important in
Speaker 3: our relationship, and I think that you secretly love it.
Speaker 6: No, I don't.
Speaker 1: So wait a second. Let me get this straight, Krista,
Speaker 1: if stop hug was to go away forever, you would
Speaker 1: be happy.
Speaker 3: I'd be good.
Speaker 2: I found myself. I found myself recently wanting a hug
Speaker 2: from my girlfriend and when she was busy and I
Speaker 2: kind of tried to do a stop hug and she
Speaker 2: was not a fan of the stop hug because she's
Speaker 2: she was making dinner. But I was like, mine, can
Speaker 2: I have a stop hug?
Speaker 3: You guys can talk. You guys can all talk about
Speaker 3: stop hugs going away as if that's a real thing.
Speaker 3: But it's like a fake premise. They're never going away,
Speaker 3: and they will they will always always be part of
Speaker 3: my and my wife's life.
Speaker 1: Listen, you know you know who loves the stop You
Speaker 1: know who loves a stop hug. Cobb loves the stop
Speaker 1: really Yeah yeah, yeah, so I can get I mean
Speaker 1: she she I take it back. There are times where
Speaker 1: I'm like, let's hug, and she gives me the face like,
Speaker 1: goddamn it, we just did that ship five minutes ago.
Speaker 3: But Donald, Donald, those are the best stop hugs man.
Speaker 1: That is when when she rolls her eyes right before
Speaker 1: we hug, I am so.
Speaker 3: Excited thinking about it. That nothing better than when you
Speaker 3: know for sure they don't want it.
Speaker 5: I mean, we can go into a longer discussion about boundaries,
Speaker 5: but perhaps it's not something we want to address.
Speaker 3: No, I don't think people want to do that on
Speaker 3: a fun podcast.
Speaker 2: I think you guys are a very adorable couple because
Speaker 2: you keep it fresh. You have a little bit of
Speaker 2: a bickery banter, but you very much love each other.
Speaker 3: That is true, Yes, and that was nice to say
Speaker 3: a little bit of a bickery banter was lovely.
Speaker 2: Well, I've been on I've been on vacation with you guys,
Speaker 2: so I know that at times it might peak a
Speaker 2: little higher.
Speaker 5: And then I get and then usually when it peaks,
Speaker 5: I get a talking to from Zach.
Speaker 2: Yeah. See, I'm like their therapists when we're on vacation,
Speaker 2: I'll be like guys, guys, guys. Both of my parents
Speaker 2: were therapists, let me let me do a little work
Speaker 2: on you.
Speaker 3: To tag it. Hey Donald, belated, Happy birthday, buddy.
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm forty
Speaker 1: six years old.
Speaker 3: Now you're a young looking man. Just to know that I.
Speaker 1: Will accept and receive that, thank you very much. Uh,
Speaker 1: we had. I had a great day yesterday. The day
Speaker 1: before my birthday was Father's Day. So I've had two
Speaker 1: days in a row of just straight up appreciation from
Speaker 1: my family, even if they were faking it. Even if
Speaker 1: it was fake beca wasn't real, It's still warmed my
Speaker 1: heart for two days. And I knew it was fake
Speaker 1: when at midnight when I was like trying to, you know,
Speaker 1: say good night to the wife, she was like, ah,
Speaker 1: I'm going to bed, and I was like, I guess
Speaker 1: birthday's over. Huh, it's over, you.
Speaker 3: Know how you know what you just said, even if
Speaker 3: it fakes, even if it's fake, it still feels great.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Not unlike a stop hug.
Speaker 1: Not like a stop pugg not unlike a stophug. I've learned.
Speaker 1: I've learned to appreciate the annoyed because I know underneath
Speaker 1: all of that there is love. So you know what
Speaker 1: I will accept to receive.
Speaker 2: Well, I want you guys to know the level of
Speaker 2: Casey's love of Bill and Christa that I posted a
Speaker 2: really beautiful shot of Donald and I today on my
Speaker 2: Instagram and it was it's an old picture obviously because
Speaker 2: we're lying next to you.
Speaker 3: Sorry, oh my god.
Speaker 2: And Christy is the Christa is the person in my
Speaker 2: life who corrects that the most. And I'm nervous. I
Speaker 2: find myself when I'm about to use the and me
Speaker 2: or and I around Krista being nervous, be like which one.
Speaker 1: That's a hard one? That's a hard one?
Speaker 2: Christ has a trick? Christy, do you teach the audience
Speaker 2: your trick? Because I never learned this in school.
Speaker 5: Well, if you're saying a picture with me, then you
Speaker 5: wouldn't say with I right right now.
Speaker 2: But you told me. You told me a thing where
Speaker 2: you remove the other person and you just and you
Speaker 2: just say how you would say it if you were
Speaker 2: just saying with me or with I.
Speaker 5: But you said, there's a cute picture of Donald and me.
Speaker 6: There's a cute picture of me.
Speaker 2: I see there you go, So I just removed Donald
Speaker 2: and I go, there's a cute picture of me. I
Speaker 2: wouldn't say there's a cute picture of I, thank you?
Speaker 1: But do you always have to go with Donald first?
Speaker 1: Can you say there's a cute picture of me and Donald?
Speaker 6: No, okay, that's incorrect as well.
Speaker 2: There's a cute picture of Donald and me I put
Speaker 2: on Instagram and it's old and Donald is a little hefty.
Speaker 1: And wait, hold on now, hold on.
Speaker 2: You are You're a hefty in the pictures?
Speaker 3: Unacceptable some of the.
Speaker 2: Some of the comments has said things like how many months?
Speaker 2: Is Donald? That kind of thing? And I because I
Speaker 2: thought he looked cute. I thought he looked adorable, Like
Speaker 2: I know, I'm sure you guys have this as a
Speaker 2: married couple. Donald, I have to say, like, oh, I
Speaker 2: thought you looked cute. I hate that picture of me?
Speaker 2: How dare you pose that.
Speaker 1: We have it?
Speaker 7: You'll look cute in the picture?
Speaker 1: Do I think I look cute?
Speaker 2: No, he's exactly I look cute.
Speaker 1: Yes, I think, of course, of course he looks cute.
Speaker 1: That's why he posted it.
Speaker 3: Anyway, Donald Kristen would post a picture of me shirtless
Speaker 3: and four hundred pounds overweight and vomit all over my
Speaker 3: chest if she thought she looked cute at it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like he is a monster behind them.
Speaker 1: It's like all of those it's like all of those
Speaker 1: ladies that have the picture of them and the baby
Speaker 1: and the baby is not even looking and it's kind
Speaker 1: of like, you know, got woozy face, but they look
Speaker 1: great and they go, oh, look at the cute little baby,
Speaker 1: and it's like, no, you didn't post that for the baby.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like that.
Speaker 3: And Casey got mad at your ass or what.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 2: So Casey slid into my DMS and was like, you
Speaker 2: couldn't have cropped him. And I just thought it was
Speaker 2: funny because it was like a good wife looking out
Speaker 2: for her husband's belly.
Speaker 3: It makes me love Casey even more.
Speaker 8: Man.
Speaker 3: By the way, that's that's another just idyllic couple. Donald, Man,
Speaker 3: you found you found the right one there. That's a
Speaker 3: fucking rock star.
Speaker 1: She does love me. Man, I'm very lucky we are.
Speaker 2: You're both perfect couples. You both are examples in my life.
Speaker 2: And I'm not just saying this because you're on the
Speaker 2: phone of of being the perfect ying yang for each other.
Speaker 2: You're both couples. The men and women are very different
Speaker 2: from each other, very different, but compliment each other perfectly.
Speaker 1: I think I.
Speaker 3: Thought it poetic that Kristal walked away during that.
Speaker 5: No, no, no, I just wanted to show Zachi a picture
Speaker 5: of he took.
Speaker 6: Of Sarah Chalk and myself. That is so cute.
Speaker 7: How cute is that?
Speaker 5: That's from the bahamas'mas Yeah, and you took it with
Speaker 5: my camera.
Speaker 1: We were just talking about this whole camera situation that
Speaker 1: went on during the Scrubs run. Did you have Were
Speaker 1: you a big camera fanatic before Brendan Fraser showed up.
Speaker 3: Krista, Yes, I was.
Speaker 5: I Brendan I bonded over the over cameras.
Speaker 6: But yeah, I had.
Speaker 5: My mom's third husband was a photographer. I was often taking.
Speaker 2: With you guys laughing because she's at third husband.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was laughing because I'm uncomfortable much. Bill started laughing.
Speaker 1: I was like, I've got a laugh too.
Speaker 2: So why do why people get married a third time? Like,
Speaker 2: don't you just don't get married? You try it twice
Speaker 2: and if it if it's not for you, just stop
Speaker 2: getting married.
Speaker 3: Why can't you are their fourth husband? Now that one
Speaker 3: took though, that one.
Speaker 6: Took, Yeah, no, yeah, that one's going all right.
Speaker 2: So continue continued anyway.
Speaker 5: So yeah, so, and I've always and then I stuck
Speaker 5: to film because I think it's the most beautiful. And
Speaker 5: then anytime I was modeling or you know, doing any shoots,
Speaker 5: I would talk to the photographer and buddy up to
Speaker 5: them and have them teach me tricks and techniques.
Speaker 3: With stogvery plus, Zach was a nerd. Brandon was Donald.
Speaker 3: I never did it. You never did it.
Speaker 1: No, I never did it.
Speaker 2: We had we had Brandon on and Donald said something like, no,
Speaker 2: we had Shay when when she had Chase Rano on
Speaker 2: and we were talking about Brendan's first episode with the
Speaker 2: camera and he Donald was like, why do I have
Speaker 2: so many polaroid pictures of myself? And I explained to
Speaker 2: him that Brendan got you and I into old school
Speaker 2: polaroid photography.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and also Brendan got me, Like Brendan, I mean,
Speaker 5: I've just gotten back in time with photography. My cameras
Speaker 5: just are bigger and clunkier than they were before because
Speaker 5: I used the old school ones. But Brendan and I
Speaker 5: used to go into his dark room, hit a dark
Speaker 5: room in his house when he used to live in California,
Speaker 5: which I loved and I used to go over there
Speaker 5: once a week and we used to sit in there
Speaker 5: for hours, and it made me realize that Bill would
Speaker 5: never let me have a dark room here because he
Speaker 5: would never see me.
Speaker 6: I mean, I would just go in there for Wow.
Speaker 2: It's also hard to stop hug on the red lights
Speaker 2: of the dark.
Speaker 1: I have a question, is it because you would be
Speaker 1: experimenting with different exposures or or I mean, I can't
Speaker 1: imagine that you take that many pictures that you're going
Speaker 1: to just develop everything, like you know what I mean
Speaker 1: after you look at the contact sheet?
Speaker 2: Is it?
Speaker 1: Like I know that some people go into the darkmen
Speaker 1: and then they try to create a formula of dip
Speaker 1: and all of that stuff where the pictures come out
Speaker 1: a little different and everything like that. Is that what
Speaker 1: it is?
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's great techniques to printing film in a dark
Speaker 5: room that you are messing with the exposures and with
Speaker 5: the shadows and trying to bring maybe a picture with
Speaker 5: a little under exposed when you shot it and then
Speaker 5: you try to fix it in the dark room.
Speaker 6: Things you can do digitally now easily.
Speaker 2: There was a lot of fun. It was a lot
Speaker 2: of fun doing I got into photography in high school
Speaker 2: because we had a photography class in high school and
Speaker 2: I learned about the dark room, and I just thought
Speaker 2: it was so much fun. Now, of course everyone just
Speaker 2: does it digitally, but it was a really fun thing
Speaker 2: to be experimenting with and doing. I loved it too.
Speaker 3: Did you three all call each other and say we
Speaker 3: should make sure we start by talking about something that
Speaker 3: Bill doesn't know anything about, so he doesn't talk all
Speaker 3: the time.
Speaker 1: Know nothing about this. I know nothing about this. I'm
Speaker 1: just trying to figure out how you know where it
Speaker 1: all stemmed from, because Zach believes it stemmed from Brendan.
Speaker 1: He believes that that was the beginning of more than me.
Speaker 2: Zach, No, no, no, Donald's not remembering one. I said
Speaker 2: that Christa and I were both hobbyists, and then Brendan
Speaker 2: brought the world of old school polaroids into our lives.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 2: I wanted to tell you that that Krista and Bill.
Speaker 2: Krista knows they love cameras of all types. And I
Speaker 2: went over to their house for Christmas, and I was
Speaker 2: very excited about the present that I had gotten them.
Speaker 2: I had found them these really really cool Japanese slippers
Speaker 2: and they were they were cool. I thought they were cool.
Speaker 6: And then.
Speaker 2: Christa said, here's the present from me and Bill. Mind you,
Speaker 2: I hadn't given them the slippers yet. And I open
Speaker 2: it up and it is the most gorgeous antique medium
Speaker 2: format camera that is like priceless and vintage and special.
Speaker 6: It works.
Speaker 2: Not only can you use it, but you'd also like
Speaker 2: put it on your mantlepiece. And uh, and I'm like,
Speaker 2: I'm thinking in my head, holy fuck, I bought them slippers.
Speaker 6: Great presence.
Speaker 3: Always thank you if it makes you, If it makes
Speaker 3: you feel any better. I didn't know what we got
Speaker 3: you until you opened it.
Speaker 2: That's funny.
Speaker 1: That's why you know what? Before we go any further stories.
Speaker 8: That show we made about a bunch of dogs and
Speaker 8: nurses and janitor.
Speaker 1: He said, here's a stories natural.
Speaker 9: So YadA roun here yeada, herewies and now we're in.
Speaker 2: Now, we're in. Now listen. We've been doing this for
Speaker 2: a full season. Guys. We we did not know this
Speaker 2: would be popular, and it's so fun that it is.
Speaker 2: But we could Donald and I couldn't think of a
Speaker 2: better way to and the first season of it than
Speaker 2: to have you two on. Of course, because you're both
Speaker 2: so funny. And also, of course Bill, this is your baby.
Speaker 2: And thirdly, we thought we might get you guys bickering,
Speaker 2: which is always good radio.
Speaker 7: Yeah, always thank you and congratulations.
Speaker 6: I'm loving it. It makes me happy than you.
Speaker 3: I listen as a fan and I think, uh, not
Speaker 3: only do I love you know, revisiting a show that
Speaker 3: I like you guys, I've almost forgotten all of it,
Speaker 3: but listening to you guys live out your friendship in
Speaker 3: real time on here, it gives me great joy. It's
Speaker 3: super fun.
Speaker 1: None of this would be possible if it wasn't for you.
Speaker 1: So more than anything, thank you, man, please.
Speaker 2: Thank yous. We always thank you for the show, but
Speaker 2: we we we probably never thank you for the friendship
Speaker 2: that you instilled inspired whatever the correct word is. And
Speaker 2: uh and that's that's that's the gift that keeps on giving.
Speaker 2: My our our our love for each other was born
Speaker 2: when when you thought we did the best job in
Speaker 2: the audition room. Even though we know now that Donald
Speaker 2: fucked up. I could be sitting here doing a podcast
Speaker 2: with dou lat Hill.
Speaker 7: I have a question, do you and Donald ver bicker?
Speaker 2: We were just funny, We were just talking that before
Speaker 2: you guys got on Bill. You probably don't know this
Speaker 2: because you weren't there. You were in the writer's room.
Speaker 2: But this episode is one of the first times I
Speaker 2: remember getting in a fight with Donald when we were
Speaker 2: doing the stunt where he last soos me in the
Speaker 2: ICU and pulls me. Donald of course got very excited
Speaker 2: and uh and and pulled me like legitimately hard across
Speaker 2: that floor and it fucking hurt and uh and then
Speaker 2: he wasn't apologetic and we got in a fight, and
Speaker 2: the rest of the.
Speaker 1: Nor a fight. We got into an argument. I would
Speaker 1: have whipped your ass if you were to put your
Speaker 1: hands on Let's give one, didn't.
Speaker 2: I didn't mean to imply that we got in a
Speaker 2: fist fight. We got in an argument, and then the
Speaker 2: rest of the episode we're like, the rest of that scene,
Speaker 2: we're like, we'ren't speaking to each other. So that scene
Speaker 2: has played out in silent treatment.
Speaker 1: Dude, what's the longest that we've gone without talking to
Speaker 1: each other because of a fight. What's the longest? Oh,
Speaker 1: probably a week, couple of no, a couple of months, dude.
Speaker 2: Casey, Casey. Whenever we get in a fight, Casey usually
Speaker 2: becomes the arbitrator and works it out. She becomes our
Speaker 2: couple's therapists.
Speaker 1: It's very interesting.
Speaker 3: I want, I want to be. My problem is I
Speaker 3: think Christa could go years without talking to me, and
Speaker 3: I'm always like I'll match her stubbornness, and I fold
Speaker 3: after about six minutes. Please please, please love me again.
Speaker 2: I hate I hate being in an argument with either
Speaker 2: a friend or a partner. I just like that that awkward,
Speaker 2: like angrily making a sandwich in the kitchen. It's rowing
Speaker 2: down the peanut butter knife.
Speaker 3: I don't by the way, you reference one of the
Speaker 3: moments that I thought was really funny on the show.
Speaker 3: Not to take it to the show, but that that
Speaker 3: universal concept of not wanting to get in another couple's
Speaker 3: fight and getting dragged back into it. And then what
Speaker 3: I I since I watched all these having forgotten them too,
Speaker 3: when I see you hand it to h Aloma to
Speaker 3: nurse Roberts. Yeah, and she and she gets pulled back,
Speaker 3: but much more comfortably on her back.
Speaker 2: On her back, I think, like on a skateboard or something,
Speaker 2: because if you float, she's floating like several inches above
Speaker 2: the girl.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think the grip made Aloma her own dolly. Yes,
Speaker 2: Mahoma's not going to get dragged real for real by
Speaker 2: Donald and uh and get in a fight with him.
Speaker 3: No, there's no silent treatment there. How how long would
Speaker 3: a real fight between you two last? If it was physical? Donald,
Speaker 3: do you think Zach even holds his own for a
Speaker 3: couple of seconds?
Speaker 1: I think his cardio is way better than mine now,
Speaker 1: so I'd have to hand it. I'd have to end
Speaker 1: it quickly because if I didn't, I would get tired,
Speaker 1: and then his little taps would trying into hard punches.
Speaker 2: That's bullshit, listen, Donald and I, Well, true, dude, we
Speaker 2: used to bull true. I've never heard the expression bull true.
Speaker 2: We used to get in play fights and you know,
Speaker 2: just like you know for ten boxing, and I would
Speaker 2: feel beaten up even by that within seconds, because it
Speaker 2: was like I'd like throw a fake punch, then he'd
Speaker 2: block it and then come with the other hand. I'd
Speaker 2: be like, oh, I'd be knocked out by that. Let's
Speaker 2: get into the episode, directed by Michael Spiller, who's always
Speaker 2: one of our favorites, right, guys.
Speaker 1: Big round of applause for the season finale.
Speaker 2: Season finale, I didn't remember a bunch of this. Of course,
Speaker 2: I remember it was Christa's epic monologue, which we'll get
Speaker 2: to in the end. I didn't remember this mirror gag
Speaker 2: at all.
Speaker 5: I I wrote that I didn't remember Christa.
Speaker 2: You look stunning, and I believe you're wearing a leather blouse.
Speaker 7: What I'm wearing. But where was the mirror? I don't
Speaker 7: remember that.
Speaker 3: All I remember is that Scrubs was the one time
Speaker 3: I was ever able to coerce you into having short hair,
Speaker 3: because you know how I love you with short hair.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know, watching this episode, I'm like, do
Speaker 5: I go with that?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: Yes? Yeah, well, yes, yes, you say that.
Speaker 2: I really, I mean, you look you look great.
Speaker 1: And all the ways, but I know not.
Speaker 2: Everybody can pull off this hairstyle. And I think you
Speaker 2: look really good.
Speaker 1: You look so choppy and pc.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and a long short hair cut. It's like long,
Speaker 7: I thought, I.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not longer than the shoulders, but it's it's
Speaker 1: it's it still has a little bit of a flip.
Speaker 6: Yes, always like Donald, don't boys like long hair. I
Speaker 6: mean Casey has long hair.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Casey has long hair because she likes long hair.
Speaker 1: It's not because it's not what I like, it's what
Speaker 1: she likes.
Speaker 2: Not everybody. I don't think everybody can pull it off. Christa,
Speaker 2: but you you, you, you show in this episode that
Speaker 2: you can because I think you look great.
Speaker 1: You look amazing in this episode.
Speaker 2: And your leather I didn't know a leather blouse was
Speaker 2: a thing, but you look great.
Speaker 3: I remember that mere thing. And this is what was
Speaker 3: cool about having a show with fantasies is we are
Speaker 3: trying to reprise the mirror thing from the pilot, and
Speaker 3: then we knew we had to give everybody the backstory
Speaker 3: kind of from the whole season so we could blow
Speaker 3: it up at the end, and we just did it
Speaker 3: by having them all talk to in the mirror really fast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you knew.
Speaker 3: Donald and Carlo were fighting, you knew that you hooked
Speaker 3: up with Christa, Johnny C's wife, and we knew you
Speaker 3: know that you and Sarah still had some shit going on,
Speaker 3: so we tried to just get it all out there quick.
Speaker 2: Well, so you're saying, as a writing device, you kind
Speaker 2: of wanted to brief the audience on here's where we're
Speaker 2: ending the season, right, here's.
Speaker 3: All the things that we're going to blow up at
Speaker 3: the end, some of which we aren't going to talk
Speaker 3: about a ton in.
Speaker 2: This episode, right, And so you have to Bill when
Speaker 2: you're writing, I think I know the answer, But just
Speaker 2: for people that are aspiring writers out there of TV shows,
Speaker 2: you kind of also have to remember like what the
Speaker 2: audience knows and what they don't know, and even if
Speaker 2: they're an avid viewer, they may have missed a week.
Speaker 2: So is there a little bit of an onus on
Speaker 2: you to just kind of get everyone in a headspace
Speaker 2: of knowing what's about to happen.
Speaker 3: There used to be there used to be. It's changed
Speaker 3: with streaming television binging and you know now people do
Speaker 3: things that they put and I love it because I'm
Speaker 3: a fan. They'll put something in one episode and never
Speaker 3: mention it again, and they'll come up in episode five
Speaker 3: and if you're a fan, you're like, woo, that's binge watching, right.
Speaker 3: And when when network TV used to exist, they used
Speaker 3: to tell you, uh, your most frequent viewer watches one
Speaker 3: out of every three episodes.
Speaker 1: I told you, I told you, Bill told us that,
Speaker 1: I told you, Bill told us that last episode with
Speaker 1: Shay and You and you guys were fucking clowning me
Speaker 1: because you were saying that I didn't watch it. I
Speaker 1: would lie to people, But Bill told us that back
Speaker 1: in the day, you're most freaking and first and that
Speaker 1: comes up to you and says, I fucking love your
Speaker 1: show with maybe seeing four episodes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's like a huge fan. That network used
Speaker 3: to say a huge fan if you did twenty two episodes,
Speaker 3: you say, a huge fan probably saw eight of them
Speaker 3: that season. And then know that and then more than well,
Speaker 3: that's when remember that's when your audience would be ten
Speaker 3: to fifteen million people and you'd go like, oh, we
Speaker 3: have four million that watched them all, and then six
Speaker 3: million that watched ten episodes, and then a few million
Speaker 3: that watched like three or four, you know.
Speaker 2: And so it's funny when I think back to as
Speaker 2: a kid, to shows I love, like, let's just to
Speaker 2: pick one, Cheers. I saw a fraction of episodes of Cheers,
Speaker 2: you know, Like, so I guess, as I think about it,
Speaker 2: I am that I was that way too, And it
Speaker 2: was that sort of viewing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we're TV fans that ended up in this
Speaker 3: business and that was us so and now it's that
Speaker 3: that that that ethos is gone. Now you you assume
Speaker 3: with these streaming shows that people that are watching them
Speaker 3: are binging them if they like them, and you don't
Speaker 3: have to make reference to anything you've done episodes before.
Speaker 3: So yeah, we felt the always felt the burden to
Speaker 3: catch people up.
Speaker 2: And Bill, another question is where was your head out
Speaker 2: when we got here? I don't remember, and I wonder
Speaker 2: if you do, how we how we were doing in
Speaker 2: the ratings. Were you were you confident we were going
Speaker 2: to get another season?
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, we were. We at this point we were
Speaker 3: a very successful show, and uh, I was even expecting
Speaker 3: us to be on After Friends, which we were the
Speaker 3: next year, you know.
Speaker 1: And so.
Speaker 3: The we were just trying to blow everything up because
Speaker 3: we had kind of done, you know, we had outlined
Speaker 3: a year to get through their internship, and then we
Speaker 3: wanted to go, let's not repeat it next year. Let's
Speaker 3: blow it all up. Let's do them thinking that they're
Speaker 3: becoming doctors, but remind people what's still out there. Elliott
Speaker 3: still has a thing for JD. Jordan, whether she wants
Speaker 3: to admit it or not, is still in love with
Speaker 3: doctor Cox.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 3: He is obsessed with Carla for his own narcissistic reasons
Speaker 3: Carl and Turk are considering getting serious in their relationship.
Speaker 3: You know all that stuff.
Speaker 2: I have to admit you something. I have to admit
Speaker 2: something to you, very embarrassing after twenty years. I had
Speaker 2: forgotten that. And when and when when Christas says at
Speaker 2: the end, admit that you still have feelings for JD,
Speaker 2: I personally got excited for JD. I was like, she
Speaker 2: likes me still, like I had forgotten because Sara does
Speaker 2: such a good job Elliott. Sarah Elliott does a good
Speaker 2: job of totally seeming like she's over it, like and
Speaker 2: obviously I know where it goes in the end of
Speaker 2: the show. But when you said that and Sarah gave
Speaker 2: a look like you just outed me, I was like,
Speaker 2: I was like happy for me.
Speaker 1: JD.
Speaker 3: Well, you know it's so weird man TV and the
Speaker 3: fandom and you guys decide what we do in many
Speaker 3: ways with your performance, because we did that Pizza Clock
Speaker 3: episode with you and Sarah because we said we don't
Speaker 3: want to do will there won't they? So Turk and
Speaker 3: Karla are going to be the couple that's together for
Speaker 3: the whole duration of the show. Will there won't They?
Speaker 3: Will be Doctor Cox and Jordan and JD and Elliott
Speaker 3: will have them hook up now and do that, run
Speaker 3: the relationship fully through its course, and then we'll never
Speaker 3: be back there again. But the second we did it,
Speaker 3: people wanted it and wanted to track it. It became inevitable.
Speaker 3: You guys had chemistry.
Speaker 2: So I mean I want that. I mean, I guess
Speaker 2: I'm the typical viewer. I love a will there won't they?
Speaker 2: I'm a sucker for that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it makes great television, you guys. I didn't realize
Speaker 1: that Cox and Jordan were the will they or won't
Speaker 1: they until this episode. Really, when you see that Jordan
Speaker 1: really does have feelings for it. Yeah, that was such
Speaker 1: a vulnerable moment where she, you know, she first she
Speaker 1: thanks him, like, yo, dude, first of all, thank you
Speaker 1: for not pressuring me into having to, you know, go
Speaker 1: into this thing tomorrow and speak up for you. I
Speaker 1: truly appreciate that. And then his response and her face
Speaker 1: and reaction to it all when he says, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was like, well you could feel her pain, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, you can feel the pain like
Speaker 1: she was with you know, she Jordan truly, you know,
Speaker 1: as much as she front she still loves this guy,
Speaker 1: and he's playing it. It's clear that he loves her
Speaker 1: later on, but he's playing it at this moment, like
Speaker 1: I know why you're here. He's oblivious, he's aloof he's
Speaker 1: he's a he's a moron also for it too, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. You gotta get to listen. If
Speaker 1: somebody shows up over and over and over and over
Speaker 1: again for a booty call, dude, wake up and smell
Speaker 1: the flavor.
Speaker 2: Man, this shit is real, right, And the first time,
Speaker 2: for the first time, we see Jordan being vulnerable there, right,
Speaker 2: christ I mean, she's like, you're like sitting even your body.
Speaker 6: Language, your life, I know, I feel small.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And you've got a blanket over you, you know, whereas
Speaker 2: you've been all this, this sexually confident woman who's talking shit,
Speaker 2: you're curling. I thought it was a good acting moment
Speaker 2: for you as well. You were kind of curled up
Speaker 2: and and you had a blanket over you, and you
Speaker 2: were you were vulnerable because you were you were catching feelings,
Speaker 2: as they say.
Speaker 1: But when when he said let's shake do you know,
Speaker 1: shake it up? And she says, so you want me
Speaker 1: to shake it up? That's when it was like oh shit,
Speaker 1: what has he done? He has no idea, He has
Speaker 1: no idea what he just did.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I like too, Donald. I liked a scene
Speaker 3: with Sarah and Krista that Donald just pointed out because
Speaker 3: it's it's cool when a writer that something happens serendipitously
Speaker 3: that you didn't mean to set it up. But we
Speaker 3: had done all these booty calls, and then we had
Speaker 3: Jordan's say sex is for making babies and revenge and
Speaker 3: that's it, and then Sarah. Then Sarah says, I don't
Speaker 3: think you're getting a lot of revenge on doctor Cox
Speaker 3: by showing up and servicing him, you know, while he
Speaker 3: watches SportsCenter.
Speaker 2: Yeah you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: And to me, I had forgotten it, and your face
Speaker 3: did it too. I'm like, oh shit, she likes him,
Speaker 3: stinger fun.
Speaker 1: Let's take a break.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back after these fine words. Now, sorry
Speaker 2: to jump to the Todd for a second, just because
Speaker 2: he's we've been talking. Donald and I have really been
Speaker 2: going back you guys and laughing and acknowledging that everything
Speaker 2: that Rob Maschio says is funny. And we're constantly being like,
Speaker 2: you know, we teased him a lot while we were
Speaker 2: shooting the show, and uh, and now when we go
Speaker 2: back and we watch the episodes, like every single thing
Speaker 2: he does makes us laugh, including in this episode. He
Speaker 2: has a lot of funny stuff when you when you,
Speaker 2: when you, when you're asking doctor Wen, when you and
Speaker 2: Carl are asking doctor Wen for help, and he's in
Speaker 2: the background like doing all this stupid stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I smacked the glass on his face.
Speaker 2: And he's like, it didn't hurt.
Speaker 1: It didn't hurt.
Speaker 3: Also, I think he I think he speaks like monosyllabically.
Speaker 3: What the Todd did bad? Still referring to himself in
Speaker 3: the third person, and Turk very upset with him.
Speaker 1: Todd did bad. As a matter of fact, the Todd
Speaker 1: did very, very bad, very bad.
Speaker 5: But do you know what Bill I noticed in this
Speaker 5: show there are a thousand one line funny funny jokes
Speaker 5: through the whole. Everyone has these hysterical one liners that ever.
Speaker 5: I was trying to write them down and there were
Speaker 5: too many, Like everyone has a funny thing to say.
Speaker 1: Aloma has the best one to me, you didn't hear that,
Speaker 1: you didn't hear you didn't hear no, but.
Speaker 7: G this dude, Jesus.
Speaker 1: And then she sings, and then she sings the song
Speaker 1: from Uh, the opening from White Man Can't Jump just
Speaker 1: too Bufjesus Sanity.
Speaker 3: I also love that because I don't think we had
Speaker 3: any song chosen and just it's one of the most
Speaker 3: fun things for me, you know, on the show, or
Speaker 3: the amount of stuff that were left into the hands
Speaker 3: of the actors and actresses. So I know, she just
Speaker 3: picked that and started singing it, which was fantastic.
Speaker 2: I believe Aloma was a religious woman, right, yeah, we did,
Speaker 2: we did.
Speaker 3: We did bet that at some point, but I can't
Speaker 3: I know, we wanted her to be from the start,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 2: I know the character was, but I think that as
Speaker 2: I recall Aloma right is was so maybe she knew
Speaker 2: that from church or something.
Speaker 1: I don't know. You gotta have her on the show,
Speaker 1: by the way, you want to have her on her
Speaker 1: showIn we want to have on our show. We've discussed
Speaker 1: already bringing her in the second season.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's a low way man. She's fun too. I
Speaker 3: forgot what a big presence she was.
Speaker 2: We're gonna have rob on and and Uh, by the way,
Speaker 2: it's funny.
Speaker 1: Bill.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember you sent out a mass
Speaker 2: email to the whole cast about doing some event, and
Speaker 2: everyone was like, I'm down. I'm down and down, and
Speaker 2: then Ken Jenkins was like, oh, good to hear from you.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm moving way too busy, and I was like
Speaker 2: and I was like, oh man, we were going to
Speaker 2: ask him to come on the podcast. But I'm a
Speaker 2: little nervous now that Ken's gonna blow us off and
Speaker 2: it won't in my heart won't be able to handle it.
Speaker 3: The thing that's going to make me happiest is when
Speaker 3: you ask him to do it next year and he's
Speaker 3: still miraculously moving. I'm moving, but.
Speaker 1: It's a bad time I'm moving.
Speaker 2: I know Ken, You're still moving. It's a long move.
Speaker 1: It's a long move. Yeah.
Speaker 2: We want to have Rob on. Who else do we
Speaker 2: have on Aloma? I want to have We were talking
Speaker 2: about having all the stand ins on and like a
Speaker 2: group one.
Speaker 1: Deonta's like Deonta. Deontay said to me the other day,
Speaker 1: he was like, listen, when you guys get to the
Speaker 1: one with the chimps and they're all dressed up as doctors,
Speaker 1: you got it. I'll call in or whatever it is,
Speaker 1: because I've got a great story. For that moment and
Speaker 1: he told me the story and it is amazing.
Speaker 3: So well, oh, don't don't, don't take it from him.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna take it from him.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna wait because you got to do that. And
Speaker 3: then you also, I believe, if I'm not mistaken, that
Speaker 3: Deontaey I see him a lot when people do the
Speaker 3: clip of Neil Flynn saying his actual name, and then
Speaker 3: Deontay I think, walks by and goes hey, Tony right
Speaker 3: at the at the end of it. So he's the
Speaker 3: reason that people don't believe that the janitor is Gwnn Matthews.
Speaker 2: Oh really really yes.
Speaker 1: So Gwenn Matthews is his real name.
Speaker 3: Gwen Matthews is his real name.
Speaker 2: Only you heard it right from Bill's mouth, guys, Glenn
Speaker 2: Matthews is his real name. He just he just lied
Speaker 2: to to Deanty's character and said he was Tony.
Speaker 3: Yes, And we decided his name was Gwen Matthews because
Speaker 3: he was the janitor on Clone High and introduced himself
Speaker 3: as Glenn.
Speaker 2: Ah, No, we had we had nelon I don't know
Speaker 2: if you I did. It was hilarious and we really
Speaker 2: kind of stumbled into a really good TV show, Bill
Speaker 2: that we'd love you.
Speaker 1: To dose about idea. It's a great idea.
Speaker 3: And by the way, I will never waiver Bill.
Speaker 2: Bill, Bill, you don't want you don't want one of
Speaker 2: your fellow fancy showrunners to steal Space Janitor. We're giving
Speaker 2: it to you. Bill. Don't say I never gave you
Speaker 2: anything as a president. You're getting, you're getting, You're getting
Speaker 2: the rough treatment for Space Janitor.
Speaker 1: It's a multi camera in front of a couch Bill
Speaker 1: in space, How can.
Speaker 3: You Space Janitor? And then another one I was getting
Speaker 3: hit up about, uh, Sam Lloyd rips the Janitor and
Speaker 3: Sam is a legal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great one.
Speaker 2: I also like we stumbled into a thing and that
Speaker 2: Neil episode. By the way, Neil's talking about how he's
Speaker 2: finally developing something on his own because he's always been
Speaker 2: in other people's stuff and he's now collaborating with someone
Speaker 2: developing something and I just sitting riffing jokes with him
Speaker 2: for an hour and a half. With Donald, I was like,
Speaker 2: I feel like we could come up with ten shows
Speaker 2: because he's so quick witted. The other one we stumbled
Speaker 2: into was a classic multi caamp sitcom, but it's a Castle,
Speaker 2: and it takes place with with roy with old school
Speaker 2: like medieval royals. So you just do like classic multi
Speaker 2: caam sitcom jokes, but they're like in it's like medieval times.
Speaker 3: The Game of Thrones.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's a Game of Thrones. It's Game of Thrones,
Speaker 2: but it's a sitcom. I'm in, Bill, I'm in. I'll
Speaker 2: do as I'll do eight to ten.
Speaker 3: I still want to see you guys in some kind
Speaker 3: of spies like us, you know, I know, weapon, some
Speaker 3: kind of version of that.
Speaker 2: I said we were talking when we had Scott folly
Speaker 2: on how how we really need you to pull a
Speaker 2: jj Abrams and start directing giant tentpole movies because what's
Speaker 2: his name, Greg Grunberg.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I heard that one of you guys.
Speaker 2: He's in all these Star Wars movies. Man, we need
Speaker 2: you to direct your big tempole movies so Donald and
Speaker 2: I can be in it and christ By the.
Speaker 3: Way, my wife just said, yeah, Bill is this is
Speaker 3: this is the reality of my wife. My wife should
Speaker 3: be somebody that would be in all of my shows,
Speaker 3: and yet she's only in the ones that she picks
Speaker 3: as that she deems worthy of her time and effort.
Speaker 3: So much so that I will occasionally and she'll remain nameless.
Speaker 3: Go there's a really thing. It would be really helpful,
Speaker 3: you know if you did this part in this little thing,
Speaker 3: and she's going, has the script changed and all since
Speaker 3: the last time I read it, And I'm like, no,
Speaker 3: why you're still no, but you're still my wife. I
Speaker 3: feel like she's like pass.
Speaker 2: Billy. I would always do that, Like the first draft
Speaker 2: of Christa's lines in the show would be would be good,
Speaker 2: to be funny, and then like on the day she'd
Speaker 2: show up like with Bill and like they had both
Speaker 2: just been working together, and Christy would have like a
Speaker 2: whole new pass. It was like a pass. She had
Speaker 2: the ability that we didn't to go Bill up.
Speaker 3: My wife was on the show Cougar Town, and I'm
Speaker 3: always telling this story. We'll get back to this show,
Speaker 3: one of my favorite things. I always stayed on that
Speaker 3: show for three of its six years, and I went
Speaker 3: and did other stuff, and I remember telling Christa, I'm like, look,
Speaker 3: you know there's other shows I want to do. There'll
Speaker 3: be different showrunners and all that other stuff, but I
Speaker 3: love you, and she's like, oh, she took it so
Speaker 3: well that I was like oh wow, that went better
Speaker 3: than I thought. And then the next year, like with
Speaker 3: their first episode, I was working on a different show.
Speaker 3: When I came home, there was a script on my
Speaker 3: pillow with her lines highlighted, and just like she had
Speaker 3: been she had just written things like change, beat, punch up, nange, Nope.
Speaker 7: Bill had told me.
Speaker 3: Bill.
Speaker 5: Bill said to me, you know, I'm only going to
Speaker 5: run it, you know, these three years, and then it's
Speaker 5: going to go. I just want you to know that
Speaker 5: going in. I'm like, no problem, got it, no problem.
Speaker 5: And then it was really the week you left.
Speaker 7: Ye.
Speaker 3: It was immediately like you're like, this works for me
Speaker 3: fine because you'll still do whatever I want you to do,
Speaker 3: which is how our life works.
Speaker 2: I love it. I would watch this shit out of
Speaker 2: this sitcom, The Real Life Adventures of Bill and Christa.
Speaker 3: I really liked. I don't know why it made me
Speaker 3: so happy. And take it back to the episode of You, Donald, You,
Speaker 3: Zach and Sarah all coming in on that first day
Speaker 3: being because it made me it felt real because I
Speaker 3: know it was the last one we shot, and I
Speaker 3: got nostalgic because you were like, can you believe it's
Speaker 3: our last day? You know what? I mean, and it
Speaker 3: felt very last day of school, and I looked at that.
Speaker 3: I watched these shows with an odd combination of pride
Speaker 3: nostalgia and then you know they're old. Being a writer
Speaker 3: that goes, oh, man, I wish we had done that differently,
Speaker 3: or I wish that was I'd fix that or whatever. But
Speaker 3: that moment specifically made me remember what a gift it
Speaker 3: was to have you guys all there and be so
Speaker 3: tight and lovely and fun to hang out with in
Speaker 3: real life. Just made me happy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember feeling I remember feeling excited because I
Speaker 1: think we all knew how well the show was doing
Speaker 1: at the time, and we made it to the last episode.
Speaker 1: It was the twenty third episode of the season. Did
Speaker 1: we do twenty four the ID twenty four the first
Speaker 1: year four? Yeah, yeah, we did twenty four. Well, we
Speaker 1: did twenty three episodes that year, not including the pilot,
Speaker 1: and I remember being like, holy cow, were a hit.
Speaker 1: A lot of things in my life are changing now,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I can't believe it. As
Speaker 1: an actor, I did it. I fucking did it. All
Speaker 1: my friends from home, you know, we're watching my television
Speaker 1: show like it was the Cosby show, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Like it was a different world or whatever
Speaker 1: it was, you know what I mean. We came on
Speaker 1: after Frasier, you know what I mean. Everything was really
Speaker 1: awesome at that moment. And so when we when I
Speaker 1: watched the scene, I remember feeling great about it. But
Speaker 1: when I watch the scene, I had the biggest smile
Speaker 1: on my face. And it's the opening of the show too,
Speaker 1: and you know what I mean. But I had such
Speaker 1: a huge smile on my face because you know, I
Speaker 1: remember the feeling of it's a success. I'm a part
Speaker 1: of something successful. I'm a part of something that people
Speaker 1: really like, and I really enjoy the people that I
Speaker 1: work with. And yeah, so you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were I agreed, nown we were being genuine.
Speaker 2: That moment is the three of us as close friends,
Speaker 2: hugging and being like, holy shit, this happened. We just
Speaker 2: did twenty four episodes of a show that's popular, and
Speaker 2: you know, there was there was There didn't need to
Speaker 2: be much acting. There that was that was that was
Speaker 2: very meta, very genuine.
Speaker 3: Well that's what I got out of this man, the
Speaker 3: gift of it. There's two things I wrote down. Was
Speaker 3: one like how great Christ it was to have see
Speaker 3: you in it, because not only are you my wife,
Speaker 3: but you're so good, you know, and so funny and
Speaker 3: vulnerable and such a badass in this I love that.
Speaker 3: And then the one thing I wanted to say too
Speaker 3: is my only other thing I did to reference with
Speaker 3: you guys. You know, so there's weird parts of the narrative,
Speaker 3: like how you guys keep trying to disprove that Neil
Speaker 3: was a figment of the imagination and you'll never ever
Speaker 3: bend me. He was figurative. He didn't talk to anybody.
Speaker 3: I don't care what you think you saw. But like
Speaker 3: one of the other narratives which was so interesting was
Speaker 3: you know how Judy and I, you know, she would
Speaker 3: always come in at the beginning of seasons and go
Speaker 3: I can be you know, funnier and goofier, and I
Speaker 3: would always be like, you're the you know, emotional backbone
Speaker 3: of the whole show. And this was one of those
Speaker 3: episodes that we earned. It was it's never one or
Speaker 3: the other, like you already talked about it when Donald
Speaker 3: is pulling Zach over to him when they were fighting
Speaker 3: in real life. You know, one of my favorite things
Speaker 3: is Judy's in the background and going you got him, baby,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, and immediately it which made
Speaker 3: me laugh. But then what we wanted to do in
Speaker 3: the show was a moment. Do you remember when you
Speaker 3: two and Sarah, even though he had been your patient
Speaker 3: for the entire episode, one of you knew what mister
Speaker 3: Bober looked like. And then of course you hear Karla's
Speaker 3: voice and she says, he's over here, and she knows
Speaker 3: that none of you know him, and she's chastising you
Speaker 3: without being judgmental. And she was the only character on
Speaker 3: our show that could do that. You know, doctor Cox
Speaker 3: to do that moment would yell at you and rub
Speaker 3: your faces in it. Kelso could never do it, and
Speaker 3: you three it was so weird because you three were
Speaker 3: all kids to her still grown up, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's a good example too. I mean,
Speaker 2: obviously we're doing it about the medical profession, but I
Speaker 2: think everyone can relate to just getting used to something
Speaker 2: and getting sort of cold to it. And again it
Speaker 2: gets meta for the show too, because Donald and I
Speaker 2: can attest that then we got used to it. We
Speaker 2: were on a popular show and we had this awesome job,
Speaker 2: and you know it wasn't until it's over in this
Speaker 2: many years back, we look back and go, oh my god,
Speaker 2: not only did we have a great job that we
Speaker 2: all love, but we were all so close, so we
Speaker 2: all got along so well.
Speaker 6: And no, because you know what things become to your
Speaker 6: new normal.
Speaker 5: Yes, so it becomes your new normal that you don't
Speaker 5: treat patients the same way.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I always call it in writing because I'm never present
Speaker 3: enough and I'm trying to be more now is we
Speaker 3: used to call it a don't know how good you
Speaker 3: got it? Disease?
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Because then then we're all off doing other jobs and
Speaker 3: other shows and remembering how great those experiences were and
Speaker 3: not saying that we didn't all enjoy them. But in
Speaker 3: the moment, I was never walk around going, hey, I
Speaker 3: don't know if I'm ever gonna work on a show
Speaker 3: that I'm proud of with these people I love and
Speaker 3: would want to spend time with forever and stuff again,
Speaker 3: So I should suck in every moment. You know what
Speaker 3: I mean?
Speaker 2: Do you? You've worked on nine zillion shows since Scrubs?
Speaker 2: Is there has there been another? We'll exclude Cougartown because
Speaker 2: your wife was on it has there been another that
Speaker 2: you that you feel that you had anywhere near us
Speaker 2: close to as much fun on.
Speaker 3: The only thing that is close, to tell you the
Speaker 3: truth was Spin City, because this way you guys were
Speaker 3: talking was my first experience and it had this very
Speaker 3: weird thing that we can all hope for, which is
Speaker 3: somebody that is a idol of yours growing up turns
Speaker 3: out to be exactly as cool as you would want
Speaker 3: them to be in real life, you know. And that's
Speaker 3: who Mike Fox was, and so to grow up watching
Speaker 3: his shows and his movies and then he's respectful to
Speaker 3: me and kind and great and so that was fun.
Speaker 3: But I didn't leave there with lifelong friends the way
Speaker 3: I am with you Donald, you know, Judy, Sarah and
Speaker 3: Neil and by the way, and John and Ken told
Speaker 3: me not to say this when he was doing my podcast,
Speaker 3: but Ken Jenkins.
Speaker 2: Too, By the way, did you did you go out
Speaker 2: in the city with Michael J.
Speaker 1: Fox?
Speaker 3: No, he was when that show started. He was already sick.
Speaker 3: And one of the you know, one of the first
Speaker 3: things that you know, when I started that show, we
Speaker 3: were taking aside and Mike and Gary said, look, Mike's
Speaker 3: going to do one hundred episodes in four years because
Speaker 3: he's sick and we have to do some production things
Speaker 3: around it.
Speaker 2: And that early yeah, and.
Speaker 3: Uh, but still got to, you know, with the concerts
Speaker 3: and dinners and blah blah, had some fun with him
Speaker 3: and stuff.
Speaker 2: I was just thinking how cool I would feel walking
Speaker 2: into a bar with Michael J. Fox. I would just
Speaker 2: I'd be strutting like Donald and I in that in
Speaker 2: that in that fantasy where we're strutting down the hall.
Speaker 2: I'd have a pimp coat on.
Speaker 3: For some reason, I love that you guys did that again.
Speaker 3: But you changed outfits right because.
Speaker 2: Because at that time I had gotten it was in
Speaker 2: really good shape. So I'm like, I'm the shirtless one
Speaker 2: this time.
Speaker 3: Well, I take, by the way, that's what friendship brings
Speaker 3: to a show. And and Christa, this is you too.
Speaker 3: The amount of stuff that you guys were generous enough,
Speaker 3: and Christa Jenner from that you would actually say, are
Speaker 3: doing real life names you would call each other, dynamics,
Speaker 3: et cetera. That made their way into the show, and
Speaker 3: the lexicon could only happen because of how close everybody was.
Speaker 2: Of course, and by the way, you could still be
Speaker 2: writing it because if if this show was in the
Speaker 2: modern era, Judy would be the one who slid into
Speaker 2: my DMS and be like, why did you post that
Speaker 2: picture at Turk looking fat?
Speaker 1: Hey, I don't want to I don't want to speak
Speaker 1: out of turn here, So if I'm wrong, we could
Speaker 1: cut this out and everything. But Bill, didn't you write
Speaker 1: on Friends the first season?
Speaker 3: I did write on Friends the first season. Somebody got
Speaker 3: fired and so I meme in. It was me at
Speaker 3: the end, but at the beginning, at the beginning, I
Speaker 3: came in and got to write on that show. And
Speaker 3: it was such a joke heavy show and some amazing
Speaker 3: talented joke writers, the main one being David Crane, who
Speaker 3: created that show went on to create episodes, and he's
Speaker 3: just such a good just a good writer. And I
Speaker 3: got to know Matthew Perry a little bit, mostly because
Speaker 3: someone made the joke that at different points in time
Speaker 3: I looked like Matthew's fatter older brother, skinnier younger brother,
Speaker 3: fatter younger brother, and then skinnier older brother, all depending
Speaker 3: on the two of them. Christa, by the way, here's
Speaker 3: the worst story about Matthew Perry. Wise relevant. Tell them
Speaker 3: how I tricked you, and how it became a huge
Speaker 3: issue in our life when Matthew Perry directed scrubs so inappropriate.
Speaker 2: Sounds really good.
Speaker 6: Want to hear that is not going to be told?
Speaker 2: Okay, well better it is better that it won't be.
Speaker 2: My imagination is way probably more twisted than it was.
Speaker 7: I'll tell I'll tell a version of it.
Speaker 6: So I was friends with Matthew Perry.
Speaker 5: We were on the same lot, but I was friends
Speaker 5: with him before we got friends and before I started
Speaker 5: doing Drew Carrey, and we always used to play. We
Speaker 5: used to hang out all the time, and we used
Speaker 5: to play paddle tests together. I loved Maddie and we
Speaker 5: were always friends. I actually dated a friend of his.
Speaker 1: I did.
Speaker 5: Matthew and I were always good friends, and we play
Speaker 5: softball together, et cetera. So Bill, the whole time since
Speaker 5: we started dating from a weekend, said are you Did
Speaker 5: you ever fool around with Matthew Perry? And I said no,
Speaker 5: we were just friends. And he goes, I can't imagine
Speaker 5: that that you were just friends, because you know, I.
Speaker 3: Didn't being friends with him for six years and different
Speaker 3: times been single on not once flown around.
Speaker 6: So so I said, no, we were just friends. No no, no,
Speaker 6: no no.
Speaker 5: And then and then Bill would see us together and
Speaker 5: you know, we were really good friends, and I would say, see,
Speaker 5: we're really good friends.
Speaker 6: He goes, I know, I still don't believe you at all.
Speaker 5: And the week that Matthew Perry was directing Scrubs the
Speaker 5: first morning, you.
Speaker 7: Know I work with me, I yeah.
Speaker 5: And I normally don't allow Bill to drive to work
Speaker 5: to me because he wants to with me because he
Speaker 5: talks all the time and I just like listening to Howard.
Speaker 6: Stern, so he can't.
Speaker 5: It keeps turning the volume down to chat about nonsense.
Speaker 5: So I don't let him drive to work with me.
Speaker 5: But I was first up, which you know, it was
Speaker 5: early in the morning, and Bill said, do you think
Speaker 5: it's going to feel awkward for matt Perry to direct
Speaker 5: you since you guys fooled around? And I said, no,
Speaker 5: it's gonna be fine.
Speaker 3: I pulled the car over and went, yes, you know what,
Speaker 3: you know what you know I did. I let it
Speaker 3: sit for like a year before that, having not brought
Speaker 3: it up, and then I went, super cash, that might
Speaker 3: be fun today. I'd be weird with him directing. You said,
Speaker 3: you guys fooled around. She's like, no, it's not a
Speaker 3: big deal.
Speaker 2: Yes, Oh my god, he built you did the long
Speaker 2: play with.
Speaker 5: That long play, and I really stuck to my guns
Speaker 5: and it was such a little thing, but he got me.
Speaker 6: It was too early in the morning.
Speaker 3: Seven years of a Last.
Speaker 7: Bill laughed the entire way for the rest.
Speaker 1: Of the drive.
Speaker 3: It made me so giddy. I was. I was just
Speaker 3: going through all the lies in my head. It made
Speaker 3: me so happy.
Speaker 2: All Right, we have a fan waiting, and we're going
Speaker 2: to go to break first. And then also when we're
Speaker 2: done with the fan, I want you to tell the
Speaker 2: story about Bill when you came across George Clooney leaning
Speaker 2: against Christa's trailer.
Speaker 3: I don't like that at all.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back, and we're.
Speaker 2: Back, and Joel is going to bring in Joel. Who
Speaker 2: are our guests or guest singular, our guest plural today?
Speaker 3: Emily?
Speaker 1: Emily is in the ladies and gentlemen, give it up
Speaker 1: for Emily. That's my best Oprah, are you wearing scrubs?
Speaker 2: Emily only appears to have a deethoscope. Emily, can you
Speaker 2: hear us?
Speaker 1: Can you hear us?
Speaker 2: But Dan has messed up again and we can't hear Emily.
Speaker 1: Emily, can you hear us?
Speaker 2: If you need anyone for your mediocre mixing services.
Speaker 1: I recommend stop it.
Speaker 2: I'm dpinning. I stop Daniel. I love Daniel.
Speaker 1: Dan, You're the best. I'm not even singing the song
Speaker 1: for me. You're the best. No, you want to give a.
Speaker 2: Shout out if you if you're starting a podcast and
Speaker 2: would like to only be able to hear some of
Speaker 2: your guests. I can't recommend enough connecting's connecting on Daniel's laughing.
Speaker 3: Joelle is just shaking her head judgmentally at danis it
Speaker 3: makes me happy?
Speaker 2: In the meantime, Bill, have you ever seen the air
Speaker 2: fresh Year that somebody made of me?
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, what does it smell like?
Speaker 2: It smells like apple Teeni's yes.
Speaker 1: I would like to talk about the fear Factor conversation
Speaker 1: because we mentioned fear Factor on this show, and at
Speaker 1: some point in record and filming Scrubs, we developed Scrubs
Speaker 1: Factor and we had a bunch of you know, and
Speaker 1: and anyone could be a part of Scrubs Factor as
Speaker 1: long as you were on in the Scrubs cast or crew.
Speaker 1: And I remember someone eating hot sauce off of another
Speaker 1: person's foot after Franklin after a full day of work.
Speaker 2: Oh yep, and I remember another one was eating pigs feet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, pigs feet.
Speaker 3: Got a whole jar of pickled pigs feet and okay,
Speaker 3: coming to them. By the way, Randall would have rounded
Speaker 3: up anywhere from two to five hundred bucks, you know,
Speaker 3: so it would be quick cash.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Listen, I'm gonna tell you something right now. As
Speaker 1: an as an African American man, that shit wasn't hard.
Speaker 1: Scott Harris, Scott Harris was the one that did that.
Speaker 1: Who was another African American male.
Speaker 3: Yes, Scott Scott went for the pigs feet and and
Speaker 3: won the cash.
Speaker 1: Yeah he would. He got the cash, and everybody's like,
Speaker 1: eat the pigs feet and let me tell you something
Speaker 1: right now, what that ain't ship. So he's just thinking
Speaker 1: in the world.
Speaker 2: So you in your childhood, when you were growing up,
Speaker 2: you would you would eat pickled pigs feet.
Speaker 1: No, so all right, so listen, this is where soul
Speaker 1: food came from, all right, little education. When slavery was happening, Uh,
Speaker 1: the slaves weren't given the choice meat, so it was
Speaker 1: it you wouldn't get the the loin or the or
Speaker 1: anything like that. You'd get the intestines and that's where uh,
Speaker 1: that's where chitlins comes from. And you didn't get the
Speaker 1: you wouldn't get the meaty part, so you would get
Speaker 1: the hooks and the feet and everything like that. So
Speaker 1: that became soul food later on.
Speaker 2: So what you're saying is that Scott Harris hustled us.
Speaker 2: He acted like it was a big deal.
Speaker 3: I'm saying he acted like it was gross, and they
Speaker 3: wolfed him down right.
Speaker 1: And then afterwards he came up to me, he was like, man,
Speaker 1: that wasn't ship. That was.
Speaker 3: On the other hand, on the other hand, by the way,
Speaker 3: there's nobody that can get me near Franklin god Better's
Speaker 3: toe way hot sauce on it. They had to suck
Speaker 3: the hot sauce off the big toe after a day
Speaker 3: of work.
Speaker 1: So after a day of work.
Speaker 2: Another one was wasn't there something about spending an hour
Speaker 2: inside a closed Morgan drawer?
Speaker 3: It was a night you had to go. You had
Speaker 3: to sleep at night in a closed More drawer. And
Speaker 3: no one ever took that up.
Speaker 2: That was there was That's a pretty advanced one.
Speaker 1: What about the young intern He became a pop barazzi
Speaker 1: now and I uh, I believe.
Speaker 2: He paparazzo Donald Paparo. The singular is paparazzo.
Speaker 1: Thank you. He became a paparazzo and I believe now
Speaker 1: it's a downer. He has a brain tumor. But he
Speaker 1: was one of our interns and paint his face with
Speaker 1: like marker or something like that and had to keep.
Speaker 3: It on for I can't I can't remember that. I
Speaker 3: can't remember that person, and now I feel sad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, he's sure this was Scrubs. It might have
Speaker 2: been homiees Pimoni.
Speaker 1: It was definitely Scrubbs. I forget the young man's name,
Speaker 1: but I remember it was.
Speaker 3: Like face he had to do face painting for the
Speaker 3: day and something and keep it.
Speaker 1: No, it wasn't even faces paint. It was like sharpie.
Speaker 1: He had to he had to put sharpie on his
Speaker 1: face and he did it, and he had it on
Speaker 1: for like a week or something like that. It was
Speaker 1: something ridiculous.
Speaker 2: Let's get back to the episode for or second and.
Speaker 1: Then last one, and then last one. Mike Schwartz trying
Speaker 1: to eat twelve Krispy Creme donuts and failing.
Speaker 2: Bill like get hug from doctor Cox at three minutes
Speaker 2: into the episode. Granted it was a sarcastic hug.
Speaker 3: It's a sarcastic one.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I wanted to point out that even Scrubs Wiki mentions
Speaker 2: that JD does get a doctor Cox hug in the
Speaker 2: season finale, we felt it.
Speaker 3: Never counted and we went back to it because it
Speaker 3: was sarcastic almost immediately the.
Speaker 2: Other also left. I laughed out loud when I go careful, tiger,
Speaker 2: I wish people would call me tiger.
Speaker 1: Awesome? Were those Johnny C's shades we please?
Speaker 2: We always talk about Johnny and I want to I
Speaker 2: want to tiptoe around these Oakley's because Johnny C listens
Speaker 2: to this podcast while he works out, and I don't
Speaker 2: want him throwing the waist down on the ground.
Speaker 1: Just to just to hold on, just to just to
Speaker 1: start it off. John you are ripped in this episode. Yes,

Speaker 2: he goes together. I thought this was going to be
Speaker 2: like a gift certificate. Oh whoa oh, I said, can
Speaker 2: I buy you? I go, I go, can I buy
Speaker 2: you dinner? And he goes sure, I go really and
Speaker 2: he was, oh, you mean together?
Speaker 1: He goes, yeah, absolutely, and you go, that's great cause
Speaker 1: I get off from like five minutes. I can't. He's like, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker 3: I thought this was a gift certificate type situation. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: That's pretty funny. And he thought that I was going
Speaker 2: to be like, here's a God individion for you to
Speaker 2: have dinner or you.
Speaker 3: Or you could just you can just tell me where
Speaker 3: you want to eat and I'll pick it up and
Speaker 3: have it dropped off.
Speaker 2: Now, let's talk about Colin hay for a second, because
Speaker 2: Colin Hayes first time being played on the episode on
Speaker 2: the show was here.
Speaker 1: Ma, ma, ma, It's a beautiful world.
Speaker 2: Beautiful song, beautiful world. And then he's actually in the
Speaker 2: season two premiere bill did how did Colin hay come about?
Speaker 2: Was it through christ huge huge huge?
Speaker 3: I got to speak for a second before Christa and
Speaker 3: then she has to talk, which is not enough shout
Speaker 3: outs for my wife, Zach, you were involved and Neil
Speaker 3: was involved, but my wife on the show for what
Speaker 3: it's worth. Yeah, no, I know, but I mean I
Speaker 3: have it. My wife is always been such a key
Speaker 3: person in me and picking music for my shows and
Speaker 3: having a taste in it that kind of defines tonally
Speaker 3: what the show is. And she had taken me to
Speaker 3: see Colin Hay a bunch at Largo even before our
Speaker 3: show came out. Go ahead, Christ, I'm sorry, interrupted.
Speaker 5: Yeah, So we had we had seen him at Largo,
Speaker 5: and I loved him and I knew that he was
Speaker 5: His music was absolutely the right tone for Scrubs, and
Speaker 5: so we used a few of Colin's songs on the show.
Speaker 2: Him And then did you know he could act? Because
Speaker 2: I think he had. He had been on the Larry
Speaker 2: Sanders Show, right, Bill, I mean, how did you did
Speaker 2: you know the idea to put him in the episode?
Speaker 3: If you it's again it's Krista. But if you have
Speaker 3: a chance to see Colin at Largo, it was, you know,
Speaker 3: half music and half him going going, I sold out
Speaker 3: Wembley Stadium with a bunch of dudes, and now I'm
Speaker 3: playing here for forty five of you, you know, and
Speaker 3: then just making jokes at his own expense. And I
Speaker 3: remember he used to say. All my old mates said
Speaker 3: I should move to Australia, open a bar called the
Speaker 3: down Under in Sydney, come out every Saturday at midnight
Speaker 3: and play that song and I'd be a billionaire, which
Speaker 3: is probably true, you know what I mean? And then
Speaker 3: he'd just tell jokes and stories about that time of
Speaker 3: the show is so funny.
Speaker 5: Do you want to hear what else is funny about
Speaker 5: Colin Hey? So, my uncle for two years used to
Speaker 5: produce Satura Night Live, and I used to go in
Speaker 5: high school to watch the musical acts like six o'clock
Speaker 5: on a Saturday. And then Colin hay Meant at work
Speaker 5: played Saturday Night Live, and then we hung out with
Speaker 5: him afterwards. He was a perfect gentleman, wasn't he like that?
Speaker 5: But we all hung out with him afterwards. And then
Speaker 5: when he did the show, he said to me, your
Speaker 5: uncle gave me a chance and was so kind to
Speaker 5: me on Saturday Night Live, and it kind of came
Speaker 5: full circle and he was excited to see me again,
Speaker 5: and that's cool.
Speaker 2: That's cool. I was going to see him at years
Speaker 2: of you.
Speaker 1: I went with you dude.
Speaker 2: Are those of who don't know Largo is a small,
Speaker 2: very small music venue. Since changed, they probably made it bigger,
Speaker 2: but back in the day when we were going, I
Speaker 2: don't know, it would hold maybe one.
Speaker 1: Hundred people, yeah, I think less than that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if that, maybe less than that or maybe sixty.
Speaker 2: And it was a bar and they served food and
Speaker 2: lots of comedians would would would be there and musicians
Speaker 2: would be there, and it was a really cool community.
Speaker 2: And I hadn't heard Colin since he was in Men
Speaker 2: at work when I was a kid. And then he
Speaker 2: and we just play his songs acoustically, just him and
Speaker 2: a guitar, and it was so beautiful because his voice
Speaker 2: is so incredible, and he would do some covers of
Speaker 2: Minute Works songs and then he would do a lot
Speaker 2: of his his own songs, his new songs, like Beautiful
Speaker 2: World that's in this episode. And I just don't think
Speaker 2: I'll ever get over you, which I ended up putting
Speaker 2: in Garden State, But I remember that he was very
Speaker 2: funny in the episode, and I just, uh, I just
Speaker 2: wondered where you got the idea to actually put him
Speaker 2: physically in the show. But there it is from Largo.
Speaker 1: He has some good ones.
Speaker 10: And then I just don't think I ever get over you.
Speaker 10: I drink coffee every morning, comes from my place.
Speaker 1: That's fun.
Speaker 3: By the way, in the history of your podcast, people
Speaker 3: are gonna be like, when did it go downhill? And
Speaker 3: they're gonna go when Zach and Donald decided just to
Speaker 3: have it be them singing favorite songs of theirs everything.
Speaker 2: That's kind of what it is already. That's kind of
Speaker 2: although I always duck out because Donald has such a sultry,
Speaker 2: beautiful voice.
Speaker 3: Such a good voice. Yeah, I gotta say, since we're
Speaker 3: doing go ahead, Donald.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I do love me some Colum hey though, man,
Speaker 1: I just he's.
Speaker 7: Such a lovely man as well.
Speaker 3: Yes, I didn't know if we're the show thing yet
Speaker 3: that I can give my both positive and bone chilling
Speaker 3: reaction to Donald already said. You know when doctor, when
Speaker 3: Johnny c says, why don't you stir some things up?
Speaker 3: When she comes to that table of all you happy
Speaker 3: people at the end and decides to rip our show
Speaker 3: apart for the next year, it gave me such glee
Speaker 3: both to watch how it was performed and how it
Speaker 3: affected every relationship, but also because you guys are also
Speaker 3: close in many ways to your you know, your spirits
Speaker 3: and your personas in real life. It gave me chills
Speaker 3: because I've had I've been one of the people sitting
Speaker 3: at that table before with my sons when my wife
Speaker 3: comes in and says that, He's like, let me, let
Speaker 3: me talk to you guys about the behavior yesterday when
Speaker 3: you just get small and just immediately have the By
Speaker 3: the way, I think Zach's voiceover says uh oh, but
Speaker 3: the uh uh. I've had so many of those, and
Speaker 3: it was so cool to watch you do it, my love.
Speaker 3: He was so good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you did a great job without that monologue. Do
Speaker 2: you remember did you work a lot on that or
Speaker 2: did you just wing it? I mean, obviously I remember.
Speaker 5: You know what you guys probably don't remember is that
Speaker 5: that scene was shot on a Wednesday, and we did
Speaker 5: Drew Carry on a Tuesday night, and for some reason
Speaker 5: there was a mess up and I didn't get the script.
Speaker 5: I was doing Drew Carrey late and I didn't get
Speaker 5: the script for the what that monologue was till midnight,
Speaker 5: and I.
Speaker 6: Was so mad at Bill.
Speaker 5: I was like, why didn't they deliver me the script early?
Speaker 5: But it builds like it was out since seven, So
Speaker 5: I was insane, And then so I had to learn
Speaker 5: it and Drew went really late that night. I remember
Speaker 5: being so annoyed, and I was first up, so I
Speaker 5: had about five hours of sleep, and I didn't know
Speaker 5: it that well, and I had only you know, I
Speaker 5: was in the regular, so I'd only done one or
Speaker 5: two episodes with you guys that season.
Speaker 1: No, this is like your fourth episode, so.
Speaker 7: Fourth maybe not a lot though, And I came in.
Speaker 5: I had this monologue and you guys and I kept
Speaker 5: messing up the lines and I started getting into a
Speaker 5: shame spiral, and it was Donald.
Speaker 6: You were like, you got this. You've already done it.
Speaker 7: You got it.
Speaker 5: You were so kind to me. Donald, you probably don't remember.
Speaker 5: And I was like, you were like, take a deep breath,
Speaker 5: you got it. You've done it already. You're just now
Speaker 5: getting into your head.
Speaker 1: I was just telling you all of the stuff that
Speaker 1: they would tell me all year round.
Speaker 2: He was just regurgitating all the shit people had said
Speaker 2: to him.
Speaker 3: By the way, you know what part of it was too,
Speaker 3: my love is. I remember because you were working on
Speaker 3: a show as a regular in which you had two
Speaker 3: tries to get it start to finish, you know, because
Speaker 3: it was multi caam and I remember all of us
Speaker 3: trying to tell you, no, you've never done it the
Speaker 3: way you want from the beginning to the end. But
Speaker 3: you've done every part the way you want, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. And then we're gonna cut and you
Speaker 3: really made you upset.
Speaker 7: I remember that now, Yeah, But then we got it
Speaker 7: in one take.
Speaker 5: And then I also thought, this single camera is different,
Speaker 5: like I had to do a different way of having
Speaker 5: to learn things.
Speaker 6: But I you know, And also it doesn't matter. I
Speaker 6: realized when you get.
Speaker 5: There, no one cares that you're working on another show
Speaker 5: and you were up till one in the morning. Everyone
Speaker 5: just expects you to know it and be great all
Speaker 5: the time. And it was just a good It was
Speaker 5: a good lesson for me, and I love Also that
Speaker 5: monologue was so good.
Speaker 6: I didn't want to mess it up.
Speaker 2: I think you did a great job. I think it's
Speaker 2: a great way to It was a really clever way
Speaker 2: to end the season too, Bill, because you know, you
Speaker 2: can't you have to have some sort of cliffhanger. And
Speaker 2: and the whole episode is that we're all working as
Speaker 2: a team, and you've got this montage set to Colin
Speaker 2: Hey where we're all coming together and solving a problem.
Speaker 2: It's like, you can't end a season like that. You've
Speaker 2: got to You've got to blow it up and uh.
Speaker 2: And then I thought that was really clever, how you
Speaker 2: had just Chris to just come in and just fucking destroy.
Speaker 3: Everybody, dismantle at all.
Speaker 2: My favorite part was that I wrote it down. Apparently
Speaker 2: JD is very good in bed that had not been
Speaker 2: disgusted yet. Oh boy, no, you know, because we didn't
Speaker 2: see our love.
Speaker 3: Be careful, be very careful.
Speaker 1: Boy. Listen, dude, you know how to make it uncomfortable characters.
Speaker 7: It was so good, that's.
Speaker 1: What you say.
Speaker 3: These guys at Krista, they've already done a thing of
Speaker 3: joking around that. I like watching you kiss other people,
Speaker 3: which I do not. I don't know. Don't make by
Speaker 3: the way, don't make that expression. Even though people can't
Speaker 3: see this, don't make the expression. Don't don't don't you
Speaker 3: were By the way, I'm a second away from spreading
Speaker 3: up there for a stop hugging big.
Speaker 2: You're not allowed out till five. You're not allowed until five.
Speaker 7: True, that's a good point.
Speaker 2: I pictured there's like a bike lock on the outside
Speaker 2: of the door, and Crystal unlocks it at four fifty nine.
Speaker 3: You know what, also, but changing the subject that that
Speaker 3: moment never happened. You can edit that out. I'm sure
Speaker 3: it's gone. The uh I liked after you gave your speech,
Speaker 3: And I haven't given enough props to Johnny C and Ken.
Speaker 3: First of all, Johnny C's ability to make intense anger
Speaker 3: seem immediately real. I found myself intimidated even and couldn't
Speaker 3: imagine what it was like. You know, Donald, you and
Speaker 3: Zach had to do it all more than anybody to
Speaker 3: act in the face of that fury. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 3: when he oh, my goodness, it's so loud and so
Speaker 3: not TV anger. That and I contrasted that to this
Speaker 3: was the beginning of one of the things, you know,
Speaker 3: when I say I watched the show and dislike stuff
Speaker 3: and love other stuff. Ken Jenkins as a man was
Speaker 3: so funny and not just the personified villain, you know,
Speaker 3: And one of the first things that got us there
Speaker 3: because he starts changing in the second year. He goes
Speaker 3: to speak to Johnny C after that speech, and it
Speaker 3: does the biggest car, the biggest cartoons spin around, and
Speaker 3: it's so funny, and I'm like, oh, man, dude, is
Speaker 3: funny and we should let him be human and quirky
Speaker 3: and weird.
Speaker 2: I wish he'd come on the show. But he's always moving.
Speaker 3: He's still moving.
Speaker 1: He's still moving while we didn't.
Speaker 2: Maybe he didn't runt a truck and he's just just
Speaker 2: doing it by hand.
Speaker 1: While we have you here, Bill, here's a question that
Speaker 1: all of the fans are asking us, you know quite
Speaker 1: a bit, and I know it has a lot to
Speaker 1: do with schedule or anything like that, but if you
Speaker 1: could ever see another incarnation of Scrubs, what would be
Speaker 1: your dream or your if you had to do it,
Speaker 1: what would how would you like to see Scrubs revisited?
Speaker 3: Wow?
Speaker 2: Didn't write to it?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I love the characters so much. And I
Speaker 3: think one of the things that we tried to do
Speaker 3: on that show is it was an era in which
Speaker 3: on the sitcoms I grew up with, everybody stayed the
Speaker 3: exact same from episode one to episode two hundred, and
Speaker 3: I like to feel that people grew and aged and matured,
Speaker 3: and so, you know, like it's it's at one point,
Speaker 3: by the way, Zach and Donald Christo were constantly pitching
Speaker 3: me that maybe we should just go shoot Doctor Acula,
Speaker 3: and which would, which would be fun. Admittedly, the two
Speaker 3: of them making that movie and I think it'd be hilarious,
Speaker 3: But man, I'd love to see who JD was as
Speaker 3: an adult and a father, and who Donald, you know,
Speaker 3: was with Judy and with their kids. And I just
Speaker 3: would want to visit with these people again. That's why
Speaker 3: I find the idea of doing a whole other series daunting,
Speaker 3: But the idea of visiting with them and seeing where
Speaker 3: their lives are at and seeing, you know, how they
Speaker 3: react to medicine. I'll tell you the example for it
Speaker 3: is real JD. Okay, not many will know this, but
Speaker 3: the real JD was a young cardiologist when we started
Speaker 3: the show. Then he became a heart surgeon and a cardiologist,
Speaker 3: and then he became so beloved by the interns and residents.
Speaker 3: He became a huge teaching figure and ultimately the CEO
Speaker 3: of the Kelso of the hospital. He runs the whole
Speaker 3: hospital of Kaiser in Los Felis, and in fact is
Speaker 3: running their COVID command center now. And the fact that
Speaker 3: he has gone from the beginning to that very same
Speaker 3: kind of patriarchal figure that you guys needed. I'd love
Speaker 3: to see j D and Turk. Doing that for other
Speaker 3: young people, I would hope that they'd still love medicine.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 2: Emily is here, Emily here, it is working.
Speaker 11: I am so so sorry.
Speaker 2: Don't worry about Emily.
Speaker 3: It's not you, miss Emily.
Speaker 1: Emily, Emily, Emily, I'm going to be honest with you. You
Speaker 1: are worse than Sarah, but we are still very excited
Speaker 1: about show.
Speaker 2: Sarah had two tries and and mess them both up,
Speaker 2: whereas Emily is just joining us for the first time.
Speaker 1: Emily, Emily, you blew it. But it's okay. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: give you the speech that Bill gave me. I need
Speaker 1: you to come in here and bring the energy that
Speaker 1: you were going to bring the first time.
Speaker 2: That is a callback. That's a callback to Donald's first audition.
Speaker 11: Thank goodness.
Speaker 2: All right, go ahead, Emily. What's your question? You have
Speaker 2: Bill Lawrence, you have Krista Miller, Donald Faison, and myself,
Speaker 2: Zach Brae and.
Speaker 12: I all right, so I had I didn't know that
Speaker 12: Bill and Krista were going to be on originally, so
Speaker 12: I changed my question a little bit.
Speaker 11: Okay, And since I think you.
Speaker 12: Guys are talking about the season finale, which talks about
Speaker 12: like all the impact that the characters had.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to cut you off. I'm sorry to cut
Speaker 1: you off. I have to cut you off. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: You have a stethoscope on? Is that a stethoscope?
Speaker 11: Nope, this is my braid. But this is my name
Speaker 11: badge with.
Speaker 1: Myll Okay, are you a doctor or are you I'm not.
Speaker 11: I'm a EMT phlebottomist. Combo. I'm calling from the office
Speaker 11: right now. I'm hiding in the break room.
Speaker 3: That's awesome. Thank you so much for all the stuff
Speaker 3: you do.
Speaker 11: I've got surgeries going on through the other door.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that is amazing. First of all, thank
Speaker 1: you very much.
Speaker 11: Oh, thank thank you guys. You guys inspired me.
Speaker 2: Oh that's right off here, but sorry.
Speaker 12: That's actually part of my question is I'm I'm going
Speaker 12: to use the just because I'm not a doctor or
Speaker 12: nurse yet, so I'm just an EMT flebottomist. But have
Speaker 12: you guys heard from other fans any amazing stories where
Speaker 12: they said that you got your show inspired them.
Speaker 11: And that's for all four of you.
Speaker 2: I'll go first. Yeah, all the time.
Speaker 1: I will.
Speaker 2: I will encounter nurses and doctors and paramedics and EMTs
Speaker 2: who say Scrubs was the thing that that got them
Speaker 2: into it. Some say they had no interest before and
Speaker 2: Scrub and Scrubs and the camaraderie and all the adventure
Speaker 2: made them want to do it. And then some say
Speaker 2: they were thinking about it and Scrubs put them over
Speaker 2: the edge. But yeah, I mean, throughout my life there's
Speaker 2: been lots and lots of people and sometimes I'll be
Speaker 2: walking along the street and people be like, they'll do
Speaker 2: a doubt take because they're excited to see me, and
Speaker 2: I go to talk to him, like we'd weird doctors.
Speaker 2: We just graduated in bed school and we'd scrub is
Speaker 2: our favorite thing. So it's such a good feeling. I mean,
Speaker 2: to the fact that we could have inspired anybody is
Speaker 2: a really really good feeling. I'm sure you guys have
Speaker 2: had the same experience.
Speaker 1: Right absolutely. That's also why we you know, we did
Speaker 1: the podcast. Also, this is this isn't just for the
Speaker 1: fans of Scrubs. This is also for everyone out there
Speaker 1: in the medical community, you know what I mean. Just
Speaker 1: the respect and the love that we have for all
Speaker 1: of you guys is immense. And so you know, when
Speaker 1: we we were on a show that was a love
Speaker 1: letter to everybody in that community as well. And so
Speaker 1: this is all about y'all. So if it inspires anyone,
Speaker 1: if it makes anyone, if it makes anyone feel like
Speaker 1: they want to get into medical it makes me happy
Speaker 1: that I was a part of something that, you know,
Speaker 1: has turned people's lives around. You know, I didn't know
Speaker 1: what I wanted to do. Then I saw Scrubs, and
Speaker 1: now I'm a doctor or now i'm you know, I
Speaker 1: work in the medical profession. So absolutely, it happens all
Speaker 1: the time, and I'm very I'm I'm very proud that
Speaker 1: I was on something like this that's reached out and
Speaker 1: touched so many people.
Speaker 2: What about you, guys, Bill end or Christa.
Speaker 5: I always you know, well, Bill, if he sees a
Speaker 5: new doctor or has to get his tooth pulled, it's
Speaker 5: the first thing he drops right.
Speaker 7: That comes out fast, like he just gets.
Speaker 3: It fast, you know.
Speaker 2: Scrubs.
Speaker 5: I often have people say to me, doctors and nurses
Speaker 5: will say that Scrubbs was the first show that they
Speaker 5: felt accurately portrayed what it's like to be an intern
Speaker 5: in a resident you know, in terms of all the
Speaker 5: stories that you guys did and the and the reality
Speaker 5: of how hard it was now tiring, et cetera.
Speaker 2: And Bill didn't the AMA come out and say we
Speaker 2: were the most accurate show.
Speaker 3: They did. They said, we're the most accurate medical show.
Speaker 3: And first of all, Emily, thanks for doing what you do.
Speaker 3: That's super cool. And secondly, you know it's really weird.
Speaker 3: We're gonna I'm sure we'll talk about all this stuff
Speaker 3: too on other podcasts, if you ever nice enough to
Speaker 3: have me and or Krista back, or Emily back, or
Speaker 3: on Emily's podcast. But when you're involved in creating something
Speaker 3: and it's been years, if you're in you know it's
Speaker 3: even presumptionous to call yourself an artist. You look at
Speaker 3: these things and you go, here's what I got right,
Speaker 3: Here's what I got wrong, Here's what I wish I
Speaker 3: could fix, Here's what I wish I could change. And
Speaker 3: the one thing that I thought we got right top
Speaker 3: to bottom, actors, directors, everybody else was because of the
Speaker 3: real JD said, We're allowed to do as many jokes
Speaker 3: as we want, as long as you make it clear
Speaker 3: how much the doctors and nurses truly care and how
Speaker 3: much they will give everything for patients. And the fact
Speaker 3: that the AMA this year. You know, however, many years
Speaker 3: after we wrapped twenty year anniversary of the Start whatever,
Speaker 3: it was asked all of you guys to do their
Speaker 3: graduation since their graduations got canceled for all the new
Speaker 3: young doctors. Meant so much to me that you guys
Speaker 3: are still part of the lexicon of young people, you know,
Speaker 3: who aren't going into medicine anymore to be wealthy like
Speaker 3: the old cliches. They're going into it to be of
Speaker 3: service and to do something really important. That's probably the
Speaker 3: best thing I'll take from this show, and that's why
Speaker 3: it's so cool to talk to people like Emily.
Speaker 1: Hey, Emily, it seems like you have a lot of
Speaker 1: people in the room with you. Want to turn the
Speaker 1: thing around.
Speaker 2: Let's know, she got called into surgery.
Speaker 11: They were like, we need you on the doors saying
Speaker 11: do not disturb.
Speaker 1: Let him come in, come in, them in and let.
Speaker 11: Them to doctors and a nurse just walk in and
Speaker 11: they're like.
Speaker 1: Guys, no, are they out there in the hall right now?
Speaker 1: Are they in the hall? Tell them to come in?
Speaker 2: No, don't, don't, yes, yes.
Speaker 1: Sa I want to say, dude, man should be the
Speaker 1: freaking Queen of the freaking.
Speaker 12: Are okay, guys, the Scrubs podcast wants to see you all.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of y'all right about.
Speaker 10: To say.
Speaker 11: Yes, that's that's part of my clinic.
Speaker 3: That's very cool.
Speaker 2: In my mind. Emily, they were like, we need you
Speaker 2: stat he's coding, and you were like, shut up, I'm
Speaker 2: on the podcast.
Speaker 11: The fact that that hasn't happened yet.
Speaker 2: All right, do you have another question for us? Emily?
Speaker 11: I do, and it's a little sillier.
Speaker 2: Go ahead, all right?
Speaker 11: So, knowing how big of lame is fans, you guys.
Speaker 2: Are, yes, except for Christa?
Speaker 3: Going except for Christa.
Speaker 12: Or maybe musicals in general, not in any Broadway play
Speaker 12: or production? Which character and which play?
Speaker 3: Oh, I would be Jean Valjean, you know. But I'm
Speaker 3: not getting excluded, and I would be Jean Valjean. But
Speaker 3: I would do it in Paris because I would sing
Speaker 3: it all on pog con do porcevetu. That's Wames and French.
Speaker 2: That's the only person I know that can sing pieces
Speaker 2: of lame as in French.
Speaker 1: Donald, Who would you be if I could be anyone
Speaker 1: in any Broadway show? Wow? You know the one musical
Speaker 1: that I loved growing up was Mary Poppins, and we
Speaker 1: were very lucky to have Dick Van Dyke on the
Speaker 1: on Scrubs uh for one episode. So if I could
Speaker 1: be any character that he played on Broadway, I would
Speaker 1: love to be Bert from Mary Poppins.
Speaker 3: You'd kill it, kill it.
Speaker 1: I would love that.
Speaker 2: That would be even do that.
Speaker 1: I'd even do the fake accent and everything. I'd suck
Speaker 1: up the accent on purpose. Oh Mary Pulpins.
Speaker 3: There.
Speaker 2: But yeah, Christy, you would go if Donald started Mary Poppins.
Speaker 1: I really, I would call you every day and be
Speaker 1: like Christa, I got a ticket for you.
Speaker 2: Christy, didn't you come to my Broadway musical?
Speaker 3: Yes, you'd go for Donald?
Speaker 7: I did. I would go for Donald, But why are
