1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Sound. This is my level. Here we are again, boys

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:11,960
Speaker 1: hid and we're bad and we're bad. Wow, Joel, you

3
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 1: looked more beautiful than ever heard. Joel. We met a

4
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: woman on the red carpet who has a website and

5
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:24,599
Speaker 1: she knows you. What was it called? It was like

6
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: blurds donalds dot. Yes, she was shouting you out, Joel.

7
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 2: That's very sweet.

8
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 3: She was calling you a black nerd.

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: Well, she was calling donald bird. How are you guys.

10
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: It's so good to see you.

11
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 4: It's good to see you guys too, holy smooths.

12
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: Hey, we made nine episodes of a new scrubs.

13
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, and about it?

14
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 2: Yeah? Did you guys like about it? Yes, it's really beautiful.

15
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 4: The episode started and I was like, they're fucking back.

16
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 1: You're back.

17
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that no time has gone by at all.

18
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 4: Not only no time has gone by, but like the

19
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 4: timing is exactly the same, the vibe is exactly the same.

20
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 2: Like Bill hadn't written the pilot. I thought, cause I

21
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 2: take Dale's like all Bill's pen never misses. And then

22
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 2: I went back. It was like Bill did not write

23
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: this that he oversaw.

24
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to. I don't

25
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: want to minimize here. I don't want to. I don't

26
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: want to minimize Bill. He definitely uh did rewrites and

27
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 1: and and and build it up.

28
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: I think it takes to like Bill. Bill has come

29
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: on this podcast and talked a lot about his mentorship

30
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 2: and who else he's brought up and along his way.

31
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 2: And these are two folks who've been with Scrubs for

32
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: a long time, who are incredible writers, who's like comedy

33
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 2: and the drama and the timing. Like you can see

34
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: Bill's like essence and touches throughout all of it. And

35
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: I just love that, Like there's enough community behind Scrubs

36
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 2: to keep this thing going at like one hundred percent.

37
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: We built the community here. This is where the immunity

38
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 3: we started up again. That's the crazy thing about it.

39
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 3: It's like, you know, Zach talks about it in a

40
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 3: lot of the interviews. We did a lot of research,

41
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 3: and I didn't realize we were doing research, you know

42
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 3: what I mean, Like he's when he said that the

43
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 3: first time, I was like, wait, what we did do research?

44
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: Us?

45
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 3: Right? We've watched this, you know, so the fans are

46
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 3: going to get exactly what they've wanted. And I think

47
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 3: the timing stuff that you're talking about. I think that

48
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 3: has a lot to do with this podcast as well.

49
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: And also that too. Donald. I sorry interrupt you, but

50
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: I just said the same thing in an interview that

51
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: you weren't on, where I said, you know, Donald and I,

52
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: when we did this TV show, we never had a

53
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: chance where we were like improvising, you know, for shit,

54
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: my mic is fucked up. We were improvising for like

55
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: two hours a week together, you know, like riffing. And

56
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: I just had this realization that that's made our our

57
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: ability to riff even stronger because we this podcast, you know,

58
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: had us just shooting the ship and make try to

59
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: make everybody laugh for two hours with no script, and

60
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: I think that that really informed new Scrubs.

61
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,959
Speaker 4: Dan Well, I mean, well it worked. I mean it's great.

62
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 4: It's great seeing you two back on the screen again.

63
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 4: It honestly made my day. Like opening that first episode

64
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 4: for the first time, I was just like, I'm I'm in,

65
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 4: I'm all the way back in. I'm back to when

66
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 4: I was watching this for the first time, you know,

67
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 4: rooting for my boys JD and Turk to you know,

68
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 4: have their life adventures. It was I mean, yeah, I

69
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 4: mean I don't know we can how many of you guys, Sally.

70
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: Well, okay, I don't want to go through a chronologically

71
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: because I don't want to do spoilers for people to

72
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: be sure this is going to come out, So that's right,

73
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: so we can talk. I really wanted this for the fans.

74
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: I wanted to we wanted to come back and say

75
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: thank you to everybody listening, because you are most definitely

76
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: one of the reasons this happened. If you're listening and

77
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: you're you're a regular listener in this podcast, it shouldn't

78
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: go without saying that the success of this podcast and

79
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: the love you all showed, uh, Donald and I, but

80
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: also the four of us, Donald me, I believe it's

81
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: the correct English is what what?

82
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 3: What?

83
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,239
Speaker 1: What? What? Was one of the main propellants of this happening.

84
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: So this is our official thank you so much, and

85
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: we all.

86
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 3: Just under applause.

87
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: Daniel, Yeah, oh my god, Donner's claws, Daniel. But we

88
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: all just couldn't wait back to get back together and

89
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: chat with you. But also I wanted to just make

90
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: sure we chat about all things, but not do any spoilers.

91
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: We will because this will come out before it airs, right,

92
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: but we are on a big press tour Donald and

93
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: me and say, you know, Christa Miller, I am this

94
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,359
Speaker 1: is what I have. I have this. I have this

95
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: Pavlovian response whenever I do I and me because Christa

96
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: is insane about directing me, and she taught me the

97
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,679
Speaker 1: trick for knowing which one is right, but it takes

98
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: me a second to do the math on the trick.

99
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,679
Speaker 1: What's the trick is that you take out the other person.

100
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:15,799
Speaker 1: So you would say We've been on a giant uh

101
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: press tour. I've been on a Brian giant press tour

102
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: right down Dania. How do you do it the other person?

103
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 4: I'm on a press tour. I have been on press tour.

104
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 4: It's not Donald I, it's not me has been in

105
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 4: a pressed tour.

106
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 1: But it takes my brain a second to do that calculation.

107
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna avoid any sentences with eye and me.

108
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 3: All Right, it's all we we.

109
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: How have you guys been? Give us a little ketchup?

110
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: What's it like without us? At iHeart?

111
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 4: I mean, it's insane. It's been quite grim. All of

112
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 4: the joy has been stripped from our lives. We do

113
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 4: not have any weekly catchups. With our favorite people, you know, Joel,

114
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 4: I mean Joel and myself. I mean, I won't speak

115
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 4: for you, Joel, but I know that our workloads, at

116
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 4: least my workload has grown greatly partly from the success

117
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 4: of this podcast. People have seen that Joel and I

118
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 4: are not producers to be messed with, and so they

119
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 4: put us on a lot of stuff. I have fully

120
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 4: transitioned to the video team, so I actually don't even

121
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 4: work on podcasts anymore.

122
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: I work on the.

123
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 4: Video team, and I'm helping transition more podcasts to video,

124
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 4: taking you on strictly video projects. And yeah, I'm behind

125
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 4: the camera now a lot more than I am behind

126
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:28,679
Speaker 4: the mic of Thank you, Joel.

127
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: I got to tell you, I've been doing a lot

128
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: of I've been going on a whole podcast tour for

129
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: the show, and I walk into these sets like Conan's

130
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: and Daxes, and I'm like, this is the most beautifully

131
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: lit space I've ever seen, and the way it's shot

132
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: with like moving cameras that are robotic in the ceiling,

133
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: and I just keep hoping that one day, if we

134
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: ever bring this back, that someone builds us a beautiful

135
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,799
Speaker 1: Conan like desk where we can all be I guess, Daniel,

136
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: you would still be remote.

137
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 3: But do you know how much money that costs?

138
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 6: Bro?

139
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: I know, hopefully, I know. But but maybe there's a

140
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: world my heart it's a Hulu show. Maybe there's a

141
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: world where ihearted Hulu collaborate. But oh my gosh, I

142
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: went into the Dax's podcast and I was just looking

143
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: up at all the lights. It's so it's so professionally

144
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: beautifully lit, and I just thought, if we ever did

145
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: this again, it would be fun to at least, you know,

146
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: three of us. I know you're in New York. To

147
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: be in the same room and and and be around, uh,

148
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: you know, sitting around on couches will be fun.

149
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 2: We'll clip this and send it to Will.

150
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: We will exactly we get, we get an advanced notice.

151
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: Maybe I can take a trip out, you know whatever.

152
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know that's one thing that needs to

153
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 3: be done.

154
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: Go ahead, we continue this. I know what it is.

155
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: Go ahead.

156
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 3: I six seven.

157

162
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: pilot without ruining anything for everyone.

163
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 3: I want to know what Joel is up to. I

164
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: kind of cut her off.

165
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: I'm sorry we skipped Joel. Joelle, you're looking fine. What

Speaker 1: Yeah, you're very interesting, and people want to hear your

189
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: thoughts on things. I mean, I always did. I can't

190
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,120

00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: you well that I wanted your thoughts on.

192
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:57,760

193
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 2: so good to hear from you. Wonder Man was incredible. Well,

00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: I give it. It's my It's the best Marvel TV

195
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: show since Loki. I was.

196
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 3: It is better than Loki, and I thought it was.

197
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 3: That's just me.

198
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 2: It's my favorite too. But I just give a small

199
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 2: caveat because those were big fan favorites, and I do

200
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 2: think those were both really well made series. But this

201
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 2: is Zach. It's so grounded. It's no super it's having

202
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 2: thee oh my god, so funny.

203
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,199
Speaker 3: Kingsley mm hmm.

204
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's too hander. It's delightful. It's so good.

205
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: Did you laugh so hard? When Donald said ready to receive?

206
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 2: Yes?

207
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: I did.

208
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 2: I was like, wow, you ready?

209
00:10:50,720 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: Did you see the direct? I wregged that and I

210
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: said from the side angle, Donald, I want to see

211
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 1: you arch your back. He popped. I was like, Donald,

212
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,959
Speaker 1: pop it pop the back. I need to see it lift.

213
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 1: Heated rivalry, heated rivalry, could never, they.

214
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 2: Wouldn't wish, they wish. It was truly a sight to behold?

215
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 2: Can I?

216
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: Okay?

217
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,319
Speaker 3: The scene just so.

218
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 2: Spoiler free review from like a critic here. The opening

219
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 2: scene is so genius. It was so brilliant because it

220
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,079
Speaker 2: was a roller coaster promotions. I was like, Oh, they're

221
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 2: going really serious with it. And then I was like, oh, well,

222
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 2: sometimes scrubs could be kind of serious. Like that was

223
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 2: like the whole bind to the show. And then I said,

224
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 2: but this is very serious. Okay, it's a fantasy. They

225
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 2: do fantasies in this show. I remember, it's a fantasy.

226
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 2: And then a crazy and safe thing happened, and then

227
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 2: a much more insane thing happened, and I was like,

228
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 2: my god, we're back. But when you at the end

229
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 2: of all of this, you land in JD's current reality

230
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 2: and you're like, I'm in safe hands with this show.

231
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 2: This show's got me. It's going to get me through.

232
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 2: It's coming with both the comedy both like incredibly like

233
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 2: serious grounded. I was curious how the show is going

234
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 2: to like, you know, we live in the world of

235
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 2: the pit now, which is really tackling, like very intense

236
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 2: suff It was like, this is a comedy show, how

237
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 2: and you guys did it perfectly. You were the first one.

238
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: I was like, thank you so much, thank you so much.

239
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: I really wanted. One of the main mantras was like,

240
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 1: we're going to reground the show. And we got that

241
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 1: from watching the show with you guys. We all watched

242
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 1: how broad the show got. And don't get me wrong,

243
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: Donald and I love ostriches stealing kangos. We find it hilarious.

244
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: But I think in this new incarnation in twenty twenty six,

245
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 1: we were like, let's save all that insane, surreal shit

246
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: for the fantasies. Let's reground the real world and play

247
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: it straight. And I think in the pilot, and I

248
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 1: was directing, and I was really with myself most importantly,

249
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: but also with my fellow castmates, trying to get us

250
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: all on this same page, you know, making the same

251
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: TV show, and I would catch myself going, let me

252
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: go again, that was that was that was too silly,

253
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: that was too broad. Let's just bring everything to reality.

254
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: And I think that that was a great reset for

255
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,359
Speaker 1: the show to go back to groundedness.

256
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 2: It was because it allows what really works about the show,

257
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 2: which is how adorable the two of you are to work.

258
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 2: When when JD's first voice overcomes in, I was like, damn,

259
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: Zack's really nailing that cute Like it's just so. And

260
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: then the first time we see Turk, he can I'm

261
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 2: not speiling thing. He can sense JD. And You're like,

262
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 2: oh my god, like your whole faith just lights up.

263
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 2: And I was like, okay, when we were in reality again,

264
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 2: both real and dramatic and serious, but also just it's

265
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: so adorable here. Oh my god, I'm really I was

266
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 2: worried about the friendship element and like what might change

267
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 2: from time, but I'm glad the two of y'all stayed

268
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 2: exactly the same.

269
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 3: You know, Joel, when you talk about that first uh

270
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 3: first voiceover, that's when we knew it was. That's when

271
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,199
Speaker 3: we knew it was on and pop. And also when

272
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 3: we did the table, okay, so were the room is packed?

273
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 3: Let me let me set the mood something set the table.

274
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 3: The room is packed. It's all the execs, Like for

275
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 3: some reason, everybody from Disney ABC decided to show up

276
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 3: that day. Bills there you know what I mean, we've

277

Speaker 1: God, it was really sweet because I.

282
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 3: Might have started the applause, sure, but the whole room

283
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 3: started applauding.

284
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: It was a really sweet moment because no one had

285
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: heard me sort of do that JD like you know,

286
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,240

289
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: gout real, we were actually making this show.

290
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 3: We were doing it.

291
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: Once you hear that JD v O voice.

292
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 3: It's it's you know, it's really crazy, man. Like, there's

293
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 3: so many things that that I'm that I'm learning while

294
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 3: doing these interviews for you know, this press for Scrubs

295
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 3: coming out like the I hadn't I stated it earlier.

296
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 3: I had no clue we were doing research. I had

297
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 3: no clue that this could be used as research. I

298
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 3: had no clue that a pot like I imployed. And

299
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 3: I don't implore, but I if any other show was

300
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 3: thinking about reviving what they did before and they have

301
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 3: a rewatch podcast like you guys worked on New Girl,

302
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 3: you know, I'm sure there are a bunch of other ones.

303
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 3: That's where you find out what the fans really wanted.

304
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 3: And we were so inclusive with our fans, you know

305
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 3: what I mean that we were able to learn so

306
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 3: much and it really served us well.

307
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: Man, it was we weren't thinking of it like that.

308
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: Obviously it wasn't on our mind. But I look back

309
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: now and going it's like, wow, we did like a

310
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: giant research project to figure out not just what the

311
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: fans responded to, because we obviously learned a lot about that,

312
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: but also what we responded to, right, I mean, what

313
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 1: we found funny and when we thought like, oh, you know,

314
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: I think we were really candid with the audience. We

315
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: were like, I think this one sucks and here's why,

316
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: and I just didn't laugh and I and I think

317
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't do that when they do

318
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: rewatch podcasts. They aren't as candid or willing to say

319
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but this one sucks and or I suck

320
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: in this, or why am I acting like that? On Jesus,

321
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: I'm like in a cartoon, and so I think that

322
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: really informed so much of how we were going to

323
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: approach this new incarnation.

324
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 4: Well, I mean you so yeah, it's super shows. I

325
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 4: mean the way that you guys were able to just

326
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 4: like bring it all back together, I mean speaks to

327
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 4: that research. You know, you know the show so well.

328
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 4: It's not just something you did in your past. It's

329
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 4: something that you have researched and re you know, rewatched

330
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 4: literally and then bringing it back was drawing from such

331
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 4: a much more fresh memory than something that's like, how

332
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 4: are we going to remake the magic of twenty years ago?

333
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,120
Speaker 4: You were remaking the magic of like six months ago.

334
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,479
Speaker 4: It was like you were It was so fresh, and

335
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 4: that super comes across.

336
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 3: That's a great example of that of what it was.

337
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,959
Speaker 3: We weren't recreating the magic of fifteen years ago. We

338
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 3: were recreating the magic that we've been that we captured

339
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 3: while making this podcast, you know what I mean, Like

340
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,719
Speaker 3: it's it's still the same thing, but we're looking at

341
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 3: it through a different through different That's a great way

342
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 3: to look at it.

343
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Joelle, you guys also modernized. I feel like

344
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 2: there are there are some key but important changes. I

345
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 2: think people will be delighted by what you guys have

346
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 2: done with the todd like it. It's a little different,

347
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 2: it's a little the same. It's it's but it's it's.

348
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 2: As we often said the show, we were like, well

349
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 2: that would just not fly. Today, now flies.

350
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 1: We added the very brilliant everything she says is funny.

351
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: Vanessa Bayer as an HR woman rules so good.

352
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 4: I don't I don't want to ruin anything about the show,

353
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 4: but no, don't ruin interaction. I will say a word

354
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 4: every one of her interactions, I.

355
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: Said, I said to Donald. I turned to Donald after

356
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: she had just landed like seven jokes in a row.

357
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 1: And you know how like Family Manners, Family Matters wasn't

358
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: built around rkle. You know, they like like they made

359
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 1: Rkele the star of the show. I was like, Vanessa

360
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: Bay is going to fucking rkle me on this show.

361
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: This show is going to become about an HR woman

362
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: at the hospital.

363
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 3: She's so amazing. Man, But everybody from x Mayo to

364
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 3: Michael James Scott.

365
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: You're going too fast. So we have this. I think

366
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 1: it can be helpful if you're listening to this before

367
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: you watch the show. We can introduce some of the

368
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: new characters and I don't want everyone. Well, let's just

369
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: start with that. So we have Michael James Scott and

370
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: the comedian whose name is X Mio. Am I saying

371
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: her last name right, I think it's x Mayo. They

372
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: played two nurses who are always next to each other,

373
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: and they're charged nurses who are sort of the head

374
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: of the shift for nurses, and the two of them

375
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 1: together are so incredibly talented. She's a comic and he

376
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: has been on Broadway for a long time. He's been

377
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: playing the genie in Aladdin. And the two of them

378
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: together are just the funniest pair. And it's really smart

379
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: because we wanted to feature some more nurses other than

380
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,439
Speaker 1: Judy Reyis and Slash Carla this time around, because nurses

381
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: are such an important part of the story, and these

382
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: two being the charge nurses gave us a funny way

383
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: into sort of the nurse side of things.

384
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 3: They're amazing the X if You if You, if you

385
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 3: haven't seen X and any We talked about wonder Man earlier.

386
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 3: She plays the agent and wonder Man. She was in

387
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 3: a Freaky or Friday. The sequel to Freaky Friday. Like,

388
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 3: she's in a lot of things right now, but we

389
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 3: also are very lucky to have her on Scrubs. Uh

390
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 3: And so you know those two, those three Vanessa, Michael,

391
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 3: and X they're there. They're reoccurring roles. We haven't even

392
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 3: gotten into the meat and potatoes with the new regular

393
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 3: cast yet.

394
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we want to say right off that we

395
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 1: have Joel Kim Booster, who Yes, I love Joe k Booster,

396
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: very funny comedian, an actor and uh an improvert. He

397
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 1: improvised some of those jokes in the pilot that was

398
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 1: just when he says, uh, oh, I don't want to

399
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: ruin them ship.

400
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 3: Don't you don't.

401
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 1: I know, it's so hard.

402
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 4: There's so much stuff want to be like at this moment,

403
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 4: at this moment, in this mind.

404
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: Now, I don't want to do that. I don't want

405
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: to That's that's not what we're here to do today.

406
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 3: Guys. No, no, no, no.

407
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: Hold on, Casey has to say something.

408
00:20:58,800 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 5: Zacha love you, Zach.

409
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: I know, Casey, go back to listen. Joel Kim Booster

410
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 1: is playing in another attending at the hospital who very

411
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,880
Speaker 1: much would like to be the chief of medicine and

412
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: Uh another Park, another protege of doctor Cox in the

413
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: intervening years that JD has been gone. And then we

414
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 1: have five interns because the show is about a teaching hospital,

415
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: so you have to have someone that's being taught, and

416
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 1: so there's many interns obviously in the hospital, but we're

417
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 1: focusing on three medical and two surgical interns. Donald, would

418
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: you like to talk about your surgical interns first introduce

419
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: the audience to them.

420
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 3: So we have my surgical interns played by Amanda Morrow

421
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 3: and Laila Mohammadi. They play uh. They play Amanda plays

422
00:21:53,560 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 3: uh Dashanna and La and Laila plays Amara, and they

423
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 3: are a lot of fun to work with. To be

424
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 3: honest with you, I get the luxury of working with

425
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 3: two of all of our young castmates are very funny,

426
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,719
Speaker 3: but these two are very, very energetic and have a

427
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 3: lot of spark. And Amanda kinda reminds me of myself

428
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 3: when we first started the show, and so I find myself,

429
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 3: you know, fighting for her to have more to say

430
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:31,200
Speaker 3: because she's so good and you know, Leyla, she doesn't

431
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 3: miss a beat. She's very talented, like she nails every

432
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 3: joke and when she doesn't nail the joke. She's very

433
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 3: inquisitive and asks questions on how she can All of

434
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 3: them like that, All of the young kids, I can't

435
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 3: speak for. I'm not gonna speak for Zach's medical team,

436
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 3: but all of but I can't say all of them.

437
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 3: They would show up to set when they didn't have work.

438
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 3: They were very interested in learning about what we were doing.

439
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 3: And you know, we got very very lucky because we

440
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 3: could have got nightmares and instead we got freaking, amazing,

441
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 3: amazing young talented actors and actresses. And I'm really excited

442
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 3: for I'm really, I'm sorry, last thing. I'm really excited

443
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 3: for where their lives, how their lives are going to

444
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 3: change in the next week or two.

445
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with Donald. You know, we searched everywhere

446
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 1: for these young people, all over the world, in fact,

447
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 1: because we found one of them in the UK. And

448
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: they're just so talented and lovely. And I said to

449
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: them early on, I said, you know, when I was

450
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,120
Speaker 1: your age, I really took advantage of this opportunity, not

451
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: just as an actor, but I sat by the monitors

452
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: and I asked questions and I said, I am I

453
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 1: am happy to teach you anything you want to know

454
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 1: about production. So if you want to sit by the

455
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 1: monitors even when you're not working, and ask me questions,

456
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: or ask whomever is directing questions, ask the producers questions.

457
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 1: And they all took me up on it. They would

458
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: be wrapped and be hanging out and asking questions. One

459
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 1: day they all brought little notebooks. It was so cute.

460
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 1: They were like taking notes. They're just really sweet people.

461
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: And what's crazy is that Ava and I'm going to

462
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: tell you about and Amanda, who Donald just told you about,

463
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 1: are twenty five years old. So when we when Scrubs aired,

464
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: they were born.

465
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,640
Speaker 3: I don't even know. I don't even I don't uh yeah, yeah,

466
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 3: you're right, Yeah, you're right. They were just born.

467
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 1: They were just born. And they were born in two thousand.

468
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy?

469
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 6: Wow.

470
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: So on the medical side, we have Ava Button, who

471
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: she's just so fucking funny. She just graduated USC. She's

472
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 1: vary into sketch comedy. She's very funny, improper, she does

473
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 1: a lot of sketch improv stuff. She's always performing, got

474
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 1: a lot of hustle in her and she plays sort

475
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: of a very skilled doctor but also one of these

476
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: doctors who is an influencer, and I don't want people

477
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: to be worried, like, don't worry. We don't go down

478
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: a whole influencer, you know, laying too much. But it

479
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: is a thing that some people are able to offset

480
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: their medical costs by influencing and showing like here's what

481
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: the intern experience is like, and they make money and

482
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 1: offset the cost of all their loans. And so she's

483
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: sort of representing one of a person who does that.

484
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: And then we have David Gridley, incredible actor who's playing Blake.

485
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: He is older, he's thirty five. We wanted to represent

486
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: the fact that not all interns come right from college.

487
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: Sometimes people take a circuitous route to get there, which

488
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 1: is something we never a story we never told on

489
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: the OG scrubs. He's very handsome and everyone keeps talking

490
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 1: about how handsome he is, including JD and doctor Cox.

491
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: They're both lost in his eyes. Interestingly, I cast him

492
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: on Bill's new show with Steve Carell called a Rooster,

493
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: which is coming out on HBO, and he was so

494
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: good on that, and he was a small part. He

495
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: was playing a bartender in a couple of scenes, and

496
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: I loved him and Bill loved him, and Bill kept

497
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 1: casting him and when he read for this, Bill was

498
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: also considering him for a part on Bad Monkey and

499
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: we were kind of talking like and Bill was like,

500
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: are you guys gonna take him or not? Because I

501
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: love this guy. He's a star. And we were like, no, no, no,

502
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 1: don't take him for Bad Monkey. We want him for Scrubs.

503
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 1: And Bill was like, you know what, I really believe

504
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 1: in this guy and he'll have a much bigger, better

505
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: part on Scrubs. Want I want to put him on Scrubs.

506
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: So that's and it's just a really amazing story because

507
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 1: he's the nicest guy. He's got two kids, he's his

508
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 1: life is just completely All these kids' lives were just

509
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: completely changed. But he in particular, I smiled because he's

510
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 1: got two kids and having quite a moment. And then

511
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:06,360
Speaker 1: and then lastly is uh Jacob, who uh plays uh

512
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: uh ashure and English in turn, and we give you backstory.

513
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,360
Speaker 1: We give we give you backstory eventions about why there's

514
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: an English kid there. But that allowed us to also

515
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 1: have some fun storytelling about the American healthcare system with

516
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,360
Speaker 1: all its problems, because you have someone who can come

517
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 1: in and say I know the NHS isn't perfect, but

518
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: this is crazy. You people go broke when they get sick.

519
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 1: I mean, having the perspective of someone who has grown

520
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,679
Speaker 1: up with universal health care come into the American system,

521
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: we thought could be really interesting. And not to mention,

522
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: he's very charming and Hugh Granty.

523
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 4: Has some great lines, really fun like speaks to a

524
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 4: certain kind of person who I won't say, but like

525
00:27:55,640 --> 00:28:00,679
Speaker 4: definitely relatable for people who you know, might feel a

526
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,479
Speaker 4: certain way in hospitals, I'll put it that way.

527
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: So that's our cast, the core cast of the of

528
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,199

Speaker 6: Mm.

561
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 2: What was it like for you guys to be back

562
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 2: on set and stepping back into these roles, like it's

563
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 2: been a while. You have been revisiting with the podcast

564
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 2: and we did some bits, but you guys. You know

565
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 2: I haven't fully stepped into the the JD interrals for

566
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 2: quite some time. How did it come back naturally? Was

567
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 2: there some effort and work into getting back into it,

568
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 2: because again we couldn't tell. We were like, it feels

569
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 2: like no time has passed at all.

570
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 4: Literally, it was just like the next episode.

571
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: That's so good to hear from you, guys, But I

572
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: don't know.

573
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 3: It was easy. It was easy to step back in it.

574
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 3: For me, I didn't have to do that much. All

575
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 3: I had to do was show up, you know what

576
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 3: I mean, Like sincerely, I had to just prepare and

577
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,959
Speaker 3: show up. Zach had all of the work to you know,

578
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 3: he wrote, he directed, he eped, like he did things

579
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 3: that I'm gonna be honest with you. I was looking

580
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 3: at him like, wow, dude, thank you because if you

581
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 3: weren't here right now, I don't know how much of

582
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 3: this I'd be like, this is great. You know. He

583
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:47,719
Speaker 3: made it so it was. He made it so it

584
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 3: was easy for everyone to come back and work. You

585
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 3: know what I mean. He probably sacrificed. He probably sacrificed

586
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 3: a lot of his own happiness in doing so.

587
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: But I did thank you for saying that no, it

588
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: was hard. I'm not gonna lie. It was really hard,

589
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: and I was so committed to giving the audience something good.

590
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: I just was like, you know what, it's nine episodes.

591
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave it all on the field. I'm going

592
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: to eat, sleep, drink, scrubs, and I'm not gonna settle

593
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: until these scripts are great, until we got the right cast,

594
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: until we until the set is perfect. I just just

595
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 1: all I did was was work on this, and I

596
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: never left when I when I wasn't directing and I

597
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 1: wasn't in the scene, I still stayed for every single

598
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: take until wee hours of the night because I was

599
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,719
Speaker 1: wanted it to be great. And I don't know if

600
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: I can do that if we get another season and

601
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 1: it's a big order because this was only nine, but

602
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 1: I thought for nine, I'm gonna just go I'm this

603
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: is I'm gonna go all in. I'm all in.

604
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 2: I'm so excited because you do. You directed the pilot,

605
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 2: which is called oh Zach's Zach's an Action. There was

606
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 2: a shot when the episode switch is to super dramatic.

607
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 2: I'm like, this is a Zach shot. I'm feeling hiss

608
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 2: all over the place this crazy. I'm curious. In the show,

609
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: you guys are leaders and teachers and uh, Zach, you

610
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 2: were just talking about teaching on set when you guys

611
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 2: are sort of crafting these the role for the like interns. Okay,

612
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 2: Usually when a show comes back, the new cast is

613
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 2: like a mirror of the old cast. You know what

614
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 2: I'm saying. It's like, Okay, well we had a jock

615
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 2: and a dork. No, so this is completely totally so like,

616
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 2: where did like these characters come come? Because we were

617
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 2: talking about they're so like distinct and different from what

618
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 2: we've known in the hospital before, I think.

619
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: I mean, it's definitely credit to a seem Batra and

620
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: Tim Holbert who and Bill who really broke the story

621
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: of what the pilot would be. But I definitely didn't.

622
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: Every time I saw an audition that was like, oh,

623
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 1: he's trying to be young JD. I went the other way.

624
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't want that. I didn't want I

625
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: sort of cringed at that. You know, there's there's a

626
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 1: lot of history of these revivals where you can kind

627
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: of see where things went well or poorly. And one

628
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: thing I was really aware of is I don't want

629
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: to just be nostalgia porn. I don't want to just

630
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 1: be like remember when, Remember when? Remember when? That I

631
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: didn't want to do. And I also didn't want to go,

632
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's young JD. It's young Turk, because

633
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: that just feels just cringing to me personally. So and

634
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 1: then I was really we were really clear, like what

635
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: do people want. Well, they want the story of community

636
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: and friendship and of course this romance that people love

637
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: it at the center of it. You know, we even

638
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 1: address it in the pilot about the male loneliness epidemic

639
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: that we spoke with Scott Galloway was on here talking

640
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: about if you remember, and we really thought like we

641
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: should leave into that people are lonesome and this is

642
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: really about people who happen to be doing the most

643
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 1: noble job in the world saving lives, but and it's

644
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: so hard, and they people die, and they have they

645
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 1: have the ups and downs of working in a hospital,

646
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: and they really need friendship and they really need community,

647
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: and they really need laughter. And so that that was

648
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: of like the core of like what we were going

649
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: to try and bring back from the OG show.

650
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: It did come back, and it was like really wonderful,

651
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 2: and again I did cry. After the end of the pilot,

652
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 2: I was like, so, you know, there's some emotional twists

653
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 2: and turns in there where I was like, thank God,

654
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 2: this is happening this way like it was, I was

655
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 2: felt uplifted. I also felt uplifted when I saw Turk

656
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 2: and Karla back together, my OG favorite couple. Uh so,

657
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 2: sorry to go full interviewer mode, but donald like, can

658
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 2: you talk a little bit about getting back with Judy

659
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,399
Speaker 2: because again, y'all are so cute. I felt love where

660
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 2: the relationship is at. I don't want to spoil it,

661
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 2: but you learn more about their family and I was like,

662
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 2: this is exact what I hope for Turk.

663
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 1: It's so cute.

664
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, that was the That was the one

665
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,439
Speaker 3: phone call I made after I heard Zach, myself, and

666
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 3: Sarah were signed on. I called Judy immediately like, Yo,

667
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 3: are you doing this? And she was like, we're working

668
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 3: it out, and I was like, because there's a lot

669
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 3: to play with here. There's so much to play with here.

670
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,359
Speaker 3: We have a lot of untold story that we can tell.

671
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 3: And you know what I mean it, you know, it's

672
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 3: great to do stuff with Zach and stuff like that.

673
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 3: But you know, Turk's other identity, another part of his

674
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 3: identity is everything that's happened with Carla throughout the throughout

675
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 3: the nine seasons, And so that was the first thing

676
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 3: I did, was made sure that she was aware and

677
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,280
Speaker 3: if she was coming back. I needed to know because

678
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 3: there's just too much to play with, you know what

679
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 3: I mean, And when and of course you know, when

680
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 3: she comes back in it's like peas and carrots. It's

681
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 3: the same thing with Turk and JD or j D

682
00:35:56,480 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 3: and Elliott. It's it just you know, we played the

683
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 3: characters for so long, and we worked in that hospital

684
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 3: for so long that it's really hard not to fall

685
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 3: back into habit because the habit was for nine years,

686
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 3: you know what I mean.

687
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: And they really represent a couple who just is so

688
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: in love, you know, we see, you know, for the

689
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: sake of drama and comedy on shows, there's always so

690
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: much there's very often so much friction between couples. It's

691
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,879
Speaker 1: fun to see a couple represented that's just absolutely head

692
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: over heels and love for each other after all of

693
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,280
Speaker 1: these years, and they have four kids together now, yeah.

694
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:41,319
Speaker 3: You know, but it's a true story. We all hear

695
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 3: everything on television ends in, you know, with something bad,

696
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Turk and Carla, I feel

697
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 3: like that's the true love story. That's a real love story.

698
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 3: That's the story that you know, I aspire my life

699
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 3: to be like with my wife. You know, I have

700
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 3: a very controlling wife who is very who demands quite

701
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 3: a bit from me, and I try to deliver, and

702
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 3: it's you know, it's okay, enough enough, all right, enough,

703
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 3: already enough. We just started fuck your sound machines.

704
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 1: You haven't gone why. That's how That's how I feel

705
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: when I see your guys faces. You haven't gone why?

706
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 3: Anyway, My point is, my point is you're right, Joel,

707
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 3: Turk and Cala are the cutest couple ever to grace television,

708
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,720
Speaker 3: and yes it only it own and probably the best

709
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:44,720
Speaker 3: couple to ever grace television. And it only makes sense

710
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 3: for that love to show through in the revival and.

711
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,760
Speaker 1: To like when you shoot them as a couple, as

712
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: the director, you just there's absolutely nothing forced about it.

713
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 1: They look like a real couple. They're just so comfortable,

714
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: you know, they had nine years of doing it. They're

715
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:01,839
Speaker 1: just so comfortable with each other.

716
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no, you know, I remember they were like,

717
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 3: they were like, we're gonna have an intimacy coordinator on set,

718
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 3: and I was like, for me and Judy Fuss, really

719
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 3: we need that.

720
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: Well, that's twenty twenty six, you got to have that.

721
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 1: We also have an amazing crew. I got to say

722
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 1: shout outs to this amazing crew. And the medical advisors

723
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 1: are so helpful to us because we just like you know,

724
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: we used to do. We're very, very committed to getting

725
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 1: all the medicine right. And every time we do something,

726
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: you know, we look to them and say, was that right?

727
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 1: Does that look real? And like absolutely, but maybe you know,

728
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: put your left hand here a little bit more. So

729
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 1: everything is just you know, choreographed, particularly the stuff that's

730
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 1: more intense than others. We rehearse with with everyone, so

731
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 1: we get the choreography of it. So it's so no,

732
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: so no doctor or nurse could say that's not that's

733
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 1: not how it would be. It would be exactly like that.

734
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: You know.

735
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, we probably look like we probably look like you know,

736
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 3: Jonathan Lipp keep playing basketball and like Mike, you know

737
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 3: what I mean, dribbling with dribbling with one hand. But

738
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 3: at least we're dribbling.

739
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: I don't get that right, but at least we're dribbling.

740
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,280
Speaker 2: Amateur playing a professional sport.

741
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think so, you know, I think you know,

742
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: we know. I mean listen, not only do we have

743
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: the advisor standing right there, but we also cut it

744
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 1: together so everybody looks like they know there's and you know,

745
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 1: something we've been doing this season we never did in

746
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: OG scrubs is sometimes those that's a real trauma nurse,

747
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: you know, will be like in that opening scene you

748
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,959
Speaker 1: were talking about all those people around, not all those people.

749
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: I would say three of the people around that bed

750
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: were e er traminerses. Really yeah, wow, And that's something

751
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,760
Speaker 1: we never did before that when you have a super

752
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 1: intense moment like that, you can hire they happen to

753
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: be you know, in the union, and you can get

754
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,479
Speaker 1: real people who do the job and that's cool.

755
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 2: And again it shows like you could totally see like it.

756
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 2: It felt like a good flow. Can I ask just

757
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 2: one more question than I will.

758
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: Anything, Joelle? But Joel, before you asked a question, right

759
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,240
Speaker 1: before I ask the question, what you're.

760
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 3: Trying to get into one day show?

761
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: What you're trying to do?

762
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 3: Go ahead, fuck your sound machine.

763
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: Wait, let me find that one. That one's deep here.

764
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 3: It is fuck your sound effects there sound effects machine.

765
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:29,800
Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm sorry, Joell my queen.

00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 2: Absolutely fine.

767
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 3: Uh.

768
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 2: I wanted to ask you. You had mentioned earlier that

769
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 2: you know, we wanted to keep the real world grounded.

770
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 2: We're putting all the silliness into the fantasies. And there's

771
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 2: if you love a Scrubs fantasy and you started to

793
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: a fantasy and it's insane. And that was the one

794
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 1: where I got to call a phone call when he

795
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:49,840
Speaker 1: must have seen them budget spend on that, and he's like,

796
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:50,439
Speaker 1: what are you doing?

797
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:52,799
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see it because I thought it

798
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 2: was an episode to stunt that I had gotten you

799
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 2: in trouble. Uh, so I've exacted one that you're going

800
00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 2: even bigger.

801
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 3: It gets really fucking big, and then all of a sudden.

802
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: Great, it's fun.

803
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 3: But I wanted an expense.

804
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: I wanted to clarify to that. I didn't mean that

805
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: we're not We're still our silly selves in the real world.

806
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: I just meant that we keep it. I just keep it.

807
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 1: I just keep it. We keep it real. Like Donald

808
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 1: and I are very silly people as displayed here, but

809
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: we exist on Earth in a real world. That's what

810
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 1: the humor is like. It isn't like, you know, sometimes

811
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 1: we have we'll have a moment and we'll shoot it

812
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 1: and be like you know what, this would never happen

813
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 1: like it just feels like something that would be like

814
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 1: a Disney Channel kids show. Thing that would happen like

815
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: that's such a heightened reality. So we cut those moments

816
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,319
Speaker 1: and we shape those moments so so it's there's all

817
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:50,240
Speaker 1: the funniness, there's all the comedy, but but we're doing

818
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: things that it would happen in real world. No ostriches

819
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: are stealing kangos.

820
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,879
Speaker 3: We almost we got we got really close. Yeah, that's

821
00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 3: the thing. We want to keep it there. We got

822
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,399
Speaker 3: really close to doing some crazy things though, and every

823
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 3: time we got every time Bill would be like, absolutely not,

824
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 3: there's no that's happening.

825
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, there were definitely things that were so outrageous that

826
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: even within a fantasy of Bill was like nope, but

827
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 1: we certainly laughing about them.

828
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 2: It good time. I think if you're a fan of

829
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 2: the podcast, there's like a little bit of bonus material

830
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 2: in the show for you, because you could tell the

831
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 2: writers have inside jokes that are just there's a moment,

832
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 2: not to give anything away, but there's a moment where

833
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 2: a character turns to Donald and says, uh, yeah, communicating

834
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 2: with me. Just in Star Wars memes is not a

835
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 2: form of communication. I was like, oh, this is just

836
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 2: them talking to each other. And I was like, I

837
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 2: feel like if you listen to the podcast a lot,

838
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,680
