1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,599
Speaker 1: And I remember being like, that is the most ft

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: up thing that I've ever heard in my life, where

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: it's like, we're looking for Donald phase on type. I'll

4
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: go in on the audition and they're like, well, we're

5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: looking for Donald phase on type, but a better version

6
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,479
Speaker 1: of Donald Donald phase on ish but full phase on, right,

7
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,119
Speaker 1: don't go full phase on. You went full phase on?

8
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 1: You Donald phase on went too far in the phase

9
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: on direction. Here's some stories about show we made about

10
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: bunch of dots and nurses and stories. So ye around

11
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: here are yea around here A welcome back, everybody, Welcome

12
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: back to the Rewatch Show with Donald one, O two

13
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: and now Donald. You pointed out something very wise, and

14
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: that is that you know, when you do a pilot,

15
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,959
Speaker 1: you you shoot the pilot and then you have no

16
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: idea if the show is gonna get picked up. And

17
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: there's often a lot of time between when you shot

18
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: the pilot and then let's say the network says, okay,

19
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna make it a series, and then you go

20
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: and you you go to a thing called the upfronts,

21
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: which is when your show is selected. You go to

22
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: a huge party in New York City where they announced

23
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: where the network is going to announce all of the

24
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: new shows, and this is a very thrilling thing for

25
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: a young actor. Absolutely, And also when Scrubs got picked up,

26
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: it was considered one of the better pilots of that time.

27
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: And so when we went to upfront, I remember all

28
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: of the heat that we had behind us at Upfront,

29
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: Like even the party for all of the upfront shows

30
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: was kind of themed towards us, you know what I mean.

31
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: And you know, you get there and you and you

32
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: and you meet a bunch of executives for the first time,

33
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: and you don't really know who they are because nobody

34
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: really knows exactly get us until you're on the network

35
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: and somebody tells you, Okay, that's my boss and that's

36
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: his boss. And that reminds me of a wonderful story

37
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: about you, because we were we were so first we

38
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 1: go to the party and it's this amazing party and

39
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: it's you know, we were just wide on. We couldn't

40
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: believe we were here. I mean, I was waiting tables

41
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: a few months ago and and uh, here we are

42
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: in New York at this Gianet party and you have

43
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 1: to you take pictures with a lot of people and

44
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: you know, you're getting treated like a celebrity and and

45
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: you're not. No one even knows who you are really yet,

46
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 1: at least especially in my case. And um, and then

47
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: then we go to this party and there were celebrities

48
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: at the party. I remember Kevin Nealon, who I was

49
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: a huge fan of from SNL as an example. He

50
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 1: was I think literally might have been one of the

51
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: first celebrities I ever met, was Kevin Neilan at this party.

52
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,119
Speaker 1: And I remember thinking, like, oh my god, we're hanging

53
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: out with with celebrities, like we've made it. Yeah, you know.

54
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: Sean Hayes was another person who was a big champion,

55
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: like he loved the show, and it was really awesome

56
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: to have the dude from Will and Grace, who at

57
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: this point was really famous on television. That show is

58
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: huge and and do you remember any other stars that

59
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: were at that party. I remember. I just remember because

60
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: I was such an SNL fan as a kid, that

61
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: I was so geeked out that that Kevin Neil was there.

62
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: I think there may have been some other older SNL faces,

63
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: but it was it was all the It was like

64
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: a NBC rich at any anyone who was on NBC

65
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: at that time was at at the party. Now we proceeded,

66
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: understandably to get quite intoxicated at this party. Oh my gosh.

67
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: I remember Bill Lawrence saying like, all right, guys, just

68
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: so you know, like don't like, you know, there's been

69
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: a lot of executives at this party, like I understand

70
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: your New York your life has just changed, but like,

71
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: don't get ship faced to all of us, all of us,

72
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: all of us Sarah Chawk's famous line, even you guys

73
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: ever heard of my Cosmopolitan? Yeah? Right, Sarah. Sarah stumbled

74
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: up to us sideways and she's like, have you guys

75
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: ever heard of a Cosmopolitan? They're great? And then I

76
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: remember cut for some reason at this bar. Wasn't there

77
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: like a trappie like a trapez but what do you

78
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: call that thing where you swing on a trapeez? Say

79
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: too dangerous to real trapeze? But was there? It was

80
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 1: something like that. It was a bar in the middle.

81
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 1: It was like a bar. I think it was in

82
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: the middle of the bar. It was in the meat

83
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: packy story. I think it was called park or something anyway,

84
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: and she was on I remember her being on the

85
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: bar and flipping over and just showing everybody. You know

86
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: what she had on underneath that dress she wore that

87
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: day because she was And I remember her husband at

88
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: the time being like, that's it, we're going home. Time

89
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: to go home, let's go. My favorite part of the

90
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: night is Donald was giving everyone noogies, and well, all right,

91
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: let's let's let me tell the story and then you

92
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: can clarify. Let me tell this. Let's start from the beginning, though,

93
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: Let's start from the very beginning. Okay, So Scott Sassa

94
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: was the dude that I thought was in charge of

95
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: all of NBC at the time. I think he was

96
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: higher up than than Jeff Zucker, who we're going to

97
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: talk about. Jeff Zucker was the I believe, the president

98
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: of NBC who's now actually now the president of CNN,

99
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: but at the time, he was the president of NBC.

100
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: He had just come from whatever, the Today Show at

101
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: the time, and then he'd gone on to be the

102
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: head of NBC. And I didn't know this, so Donald

103
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 1: didn't know who he was. You're gonna ruin my story.

104
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: Donald didn't know who he was. I thought he was

105
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: Scott Sass's assistant. And Donald was going around giving everyone

106
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: noggies and I look over and Donald has Jeff Zucker,

107
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: the president of the network, in a full headlock, and

108
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: he's giving him a drunken noggie on his bald head.

109
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: And I hear Jeff Zucker, go please Donald. No. That's

110
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: entire friendship. Whenever Donald like tells me a cringe e

111
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: story that makes me want to run away, I just

112
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: tell him about please Donald, no, Jeff Zucker. You know,

113
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: at this point, I'm giving everybody love because I'm so

114
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: excited that we're on the network. It's going down, and

115
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: I look over and I see Jeff Zucker in my mind,

116
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: Scott Sass's assistant standing over by the bar, uh, you know,

117
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: by himself, or he might even have been with somebody.

118
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: And I'm like, hey, you come over here to give out.

119
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: And he's like he's like no, no, no, no, no, no,

120
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: no no no. And I pointed at him again, and

121
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: I'm like, and I get a little bit more, you know,

122
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,799
Speaker 1: agro about it, and I'm like, no, you get over

123
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: here right now, and he's like no, no, no, no,

124
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: no no, And so I march over to him, drunk

125
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: as kim being I've seen you march. When Donald marches

126
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: his arms swing and I walk up to him and

127
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: I grabbed him and I put him in the headlock,

128
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: and I'm like, don't you ever tell me no? And

129
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: I'm grabbing him and I'm giving Jeff Zucker a nuggie.

130
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: And I remember Bill Lawrence like a few days later

131
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: being like, dude, Donald, I just have to ask you

132
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: if this act really happened, But did you give Jeff

133
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: Zucker a noogie? I was like, I gave so many

134
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: people noggies. I gave so many I can't recall who

135
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: who was the And he was like, well, apparently you

136
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: gave the head of NBC a noogie. And he's not

137
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: really happy about it. He wasn't genuinely piste off, was he? No.

138
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: I don't think he was genuinely piste off. But he

139
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: stayed away from me. I remember remember he did come

140
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: to visit the set the hospital, and he kind of

141
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: stayed away from you because he was afraid of He

142
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: was very very afraid of me. Um, yeah, that's very funny.

143
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: Well what else do you? So? Then I remember that

144
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: night ended where we were in I wasn't there. You were,

145
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: this was you and Nelon. I wasn't there. Almost Almost

146
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 1: everybody ended up back in Bill and Christa's hotel room,

147
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: and we it's kind of it's sweet slash embarrassing. We

148
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,679
Speaker 1: were so geeked out. We were like, let's watch our pilot.

149
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: So we were like it was like a whole bunch

150
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: of people and Kevin Kneelin, who I was a fan of,

151
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: and we just were watching the show and I don't know,

152
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: it was this sweet moment. I remember being like just

153
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: thinking like I can't believe this is happening. But then

154
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: the funny thing is you have a long time before

155
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: you start shooting. So we made the show, it got

156
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: picked up. My mom freaked out that I was like

157
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: that I quit my waiting tables job. She was like,

158
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: but what it's so long, what are you gonna do?

159
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: And I was like, I, Mom, I I I can

160
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: live off this pilot money for a long I was

161
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: living so frugally with with no money that I was like,

162
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: I can live off this pilot money for a long time,

163
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna write. And that's in that time is

164
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: when I really finally sat down and put Garden State together,

165
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: and at my dining room table and kind of was like,

166
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 1: this is a sign I need to I have this

167
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: time that the universe gave me and I don't need

168
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: to wait tables and I'm gonna sit down and like

169
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: put this script together. That's awesome. Yeah, I went away.

170
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: I think I did a movie that year. I know

171
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: I did. I did something in between. But I remember

172
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: also calling Danny Rose, who was Bill's assistant at the time,

173
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 1: every day, like, so when do we start, man? Like

174
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 1: you know, he was like, and we're gonna start, probably

175
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: around June or July. I was like, dude, come on,

176
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 1: like like it was up to Danny, I love you, Like,

177
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: come on, man, we gotta start. We gotta we gotta

178
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: start soon. Man. I I had a baby mama at

179
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: the time, and we had two kids and one on

180
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: the way, and it was like, I remember being like,

181
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: I gotta get out of here, man, I gotta do something. Well.

182
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 1: You wanted to be working, you wanted to be like

183
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: doing it well. Yeah, And also we had this show

184
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: that was picked up, but we weren't gonna work from

185
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 1: you know, from May until July or you know that

186
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: it was. I remember, I couldn't figure out was it

187
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: like four months where we waited and waited. We went

188
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 1: back to work probably in the beginning of July, like

189
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: most shows do, uh something like that. I just remember

190
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: being at like four months or song. But anyway, it

191
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: was so exciting to finally start. And so this episode

192
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: that we're gonna talk about today one or two by

193
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 1: the way, just this just a little bit of oddness.

194
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: They label TV shows in the hundreds so you can

195
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: keep track of what season on. So a pilot would

196
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,559
Speaker 1: be one oh one, right, and then episode two will

197
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 1: be one oh two, and then when you start season

198
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: two it's two oh one, two oh two, so that way,

199
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: you know, anyway, just a little bit of trivia for you.

200
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: So this is one oh two we're gonna be talking about,

201
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: and it's called my mentor. Okay, so the show starts

202
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: off and I remember singing this song for such a

203
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: long time, but it it's called good Time by Leroy.

204
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: If you guys want to remind yourselves of the song

205
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: and it was really you can sing it ahead. I'm

206
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: sure le Ro would be rolla. Uh. I got shot

207
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: down in southern Californy. I remember being like, that's a

208
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: dope song, and this is this is you know, for me,

209
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: Scrubs was a brand new experience when it came to

210
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: music because I didn't listen to music like this. I

211
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: listened to other types of music, and so this was

212
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: one of the first examples of me being of me

213
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: hearing this and being like wow, we and also also

214
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 1: seeing it for the first time too, and it being

215
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: like a music video. It was like, wow, we're making

216
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: music videos and also making a story about how look

217
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: In the beginning of the show, the hospitals in sync

218
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: because of this, this song that you're listening to in

219
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: your ear. We're on point. Everybody is doing their job.

220
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: And I also noticed that we we cut ahead a

221
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: little bit also, so you're no longer it's not the

222
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: very next day, you know, it's a few days in.

223
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: I've gotten, but I I just want to say, like

224
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: I got. I was watching this, and granted I haven't

225
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: watched this in twenty years. Most of these episodes I

226
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 1: don't know about you, but one of the things that's

227
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: fun about doing this podcast is, with a very few

228
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: exceptions maybe the musical episode or or or or ones

229
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 1: I directed, I directed seven or eight of them. I

230
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: think I never I only saw them once. So I

231
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: haven't seen this in twenty years, and it's so cool

232
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: to look back and Adam Bernstein directed this episode. That

233
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: was the same director who directed our pilot, and I

234
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: just remember thinking, like, you just said that, this was

235
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 1: so exciting. We were like the show was opening, like

236
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: this was stuff I hadn't really seen before and the show.

237
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: It just showed the creativity of Bill and and Adam

238
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 1: Ernstein and the fact that the show was opening with

239
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: this music video of how life in the hospital when

240
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 1: it's grooving is like a well oiled machine. I just

241
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: thought it was so clever. Yeah, I took notice of

242
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: that because I don't, you know, watching this again, is

243
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: it all seems a little brand new to me, And

244
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: I don't mean to We were a part of the

245
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: show and so it was just an amazing moment for me.

246
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sound like, you know, I'm cocky and arrogant,

247
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: but you know, watching it, I was like, Wow, this

248
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: is a really really genius way of showing how awesome

249
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: or how in synct this hospital is. And for that,

250
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: I was like, I love the show even more now

251
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: you know, now that it's now that it's twenty years later,

252
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 1: I'm like, Wow, we really were innovative and we really

253
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,599
Speaker 1: were different for prime time television. You know, regardless of

254
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: how many people watched the show at the time, you know,

255
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: it really still does hold up. Yeah, I have to say, um,

256
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: and you can be that's not you being arrogant because

257
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 1: we weren't the genius people behind writing it. Although yeah,

258
00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 1: but we were a part of it. I know, I know,

259
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: but I'm saying you had a really big part about

260
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: you know, you did. You told the story. I know,

261
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying like this, I think, you know,

262
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 1: as credit to Bill and all the writers, this was

263
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 1: just so original and and different and exciting. By the way,

264
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 1: how funny is it that I have a Walkman? It

265
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: must be two thousand one. I guess there was still

266
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: cassette Walkman. I would have thought it would have been

267
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 1: a disc but uh, I guess J D had a

268
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: had a mix on a cassette. Dude. You know, speaking

269
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: of Walkman's well week, we could talk about it after

270
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: season one, but I just remember you walking the streets

271
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: of New York City with your yellow Walkman, listening to

272
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: Michelle Branch. Every me when I closed my eyes, it's you,

273
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: I you see, that was my jam. I am not

274
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 1: duming about loving Michelle Branch. I remember you walking out

275
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: the house Walkman. It was a yellow walkman, the sony Walkman,

276
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: the dope Sony Walkman's that everybody if you had the

277
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: yellow sunny Walkman, you had the dope. You know. Everything

278
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 1: else was all right, but that was the one right.

279
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: And I remember you being like, well, I'm out, I'm

280
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 1: going to her so And that's when we were both

281
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: in New York living together and you were doing That's

282
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: the whole episode is Donald and I living together in Manhattan.

283
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 1: We rented aloft together. He was doing a movie and

284
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: I was doing Shakespeare in the Park and I would

285
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: go out and bought my head with my yellow walk

286
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: Man cranking YO every way to me when I closed

287
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: my eyes, it's you. I I'm not alone, dude. I

288
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: think it's very much j D that you had a

289
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: walkman with his cassette tape in it. Yeah. Um. I

290
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: noticed that the first exterior shot is still not our hospital.

291
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: They at two minutes in. They cut two, which was

292
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: an establishing shot from the pilot of me coming to

293
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: work for the first day. I think that's the very

294
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: that's the same shot, exact same shot they used in

295
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: the pilot of me showing up to work for the

296
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: first day. Do you remember going to that hospital and

297
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: us shooting a bunch of entrances like me and you

298
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: walking in, you walking in by yourself, you and Sarah

299
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: walking in. Remember all of that? Yeah? Yeah, and but yeah,

300
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: but that was that was for the pilot, right, No,

301
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: that was for the show itself. We did a bunch

302
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: of we did a bunch of versions of us walking

303
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: into this hospital, and some of it never got used.

304
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: Point at a certain point they just stopped using this

305
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 1: exterior because it was not our exterior at all. I

306
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: don't know what the hell that was. I noticed that

307
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: this episode has a lot to do with relationships, you

308
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: know what I mean, and how we all started off

309
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: kind of on rocky ground. You and I had the

310
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: same relationship, and you and the janitor have the same

311
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: relationship all the way through, but everyone else, no matter

312
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: how it's connected, has a different relationship in this episode.

313
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: At this point, you don't mind being in the friend

314
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: zone with Elliott, and as a matter of fact, he

315
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: thinks it's kind of cool that, you know, he has

316
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: a colleague from work that wants to hang out with him,

317
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: and and Turk Turk and collor on together. Yet you know,

318
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: what I mean, they're just starting their courtship, you and

319
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: Dr Cox, even though he's still giving you advice and

320
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: stuff like that. I also noticed that this is the

321
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: first time he calls you a woman's name too. I

322
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: think it's ready on where he catches them smoking. Yeah,

323
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: he calls you Susan. But this is you know, you

324
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: guys weren't in sync yet, so you don't really know

325
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: this guy and you're trying to get to know him,

326
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: or j D is trying to get to know him,

327
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: but they don't really know each other that well yet.

328
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: And uh, I'm jumping ahead. But that stuff in his

329
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: apartment is phenomenal. I going back and looking at it,

330
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: I was like I had no idea one that it

331
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: was this funny and two that it was this important,

332
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like I had no clue

333
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: watching it back then. It kind of seems like a blur.

334
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: And you know, to be honest with you, most of

335
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: this episode, I don't remember. Yeah, there's things, there's things

336
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: I don't remember. I don't remember my It's funny. I

337
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: don't remember my head exploding. I mean really no, I don't.

338
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: I mean I remember, I don't remember doing that gag.

339
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: A lot of the stunts and stuff. I remember, I

340
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: remember falling over when he closes the door on my

341
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: on my leg and stuff, but the head exploding, I

342
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: don't remember shooting that, but I want to just pick

343
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: up what you said. I agree. A lot of it

344
00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: is about establishing these relationships that we're gonna follow ultimately

345
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,199
Speaker 1: for nine seasons. And also Judy really comes through in

346
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: this episode. Judy Ray says, she does some awesome work,

347
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: and it's establishing a really important theme that I think

348
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: comes across throughout the whole series is that we young

349
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: doctors are learning the importance of nurses because we come

350
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: out of medical school and we're super cocky and we

351
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: think we're gonna be badasses, but we're We learned right

352
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: off the bat, you know, not to be cheesy and

353
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: say the theme song. But we we can't do this

354
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: all on our own. We need the help of the nurses.

355
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: And every doctor we ever talked to and doing research

356
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: would say, yeah, I mean, the nurses run the show.

357
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: You you know, if you're if you're a layman and

358
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: you don't know, you have no idea how much work

359
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: and pressure and stress the nurses are all constantly under

360
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: and I was thinking about that now, especially with the

361
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: Corona crisis going on and watching all the news, and

362
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: I was really, I don't know, extra moved by in

363
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: this episode, seeing like that those nurses are just working

364
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 1: their asses off, and Sarah's character in particular needs to

365
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 1: learn that, like, no, no, we're a team and you

366
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 1: and you need to like check your your arrogance at

367
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: the door, and this is really about, like we're gonna

368
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: do this together and you need the nurses to be

369
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: on your side. Absolutely absolutely with that. I agree with

370
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: It's true nurses are the heart and soul of the hospital.

371
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: Just a piggyback on what you said about Sarah though,

372
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: A perfect example of someone who is not sincere about

373
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 1: their apology is when they apologize to you and then

374
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: it's followed with but just to be clear, you know

375
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: what I mean? And she totally does that in this episode,

376
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: and everything that happens to her after this is because

377
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 1: of how she just consistently put her foot in her

378
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: mouth throughout this episode. And I wonder if it's I

379
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: don't I don't remember if it carries on through this season,

380
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 1: but through the career of the show, through the show

381
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: her character always had the worst luck. Yeah, well again

382
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: that comes from her life too. I mean, Sarah is

383
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: a klutzy gal. She'll be the first to admit when

384
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,479
Speaker 1: she comes on our show. And Sarah would come in

385
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: from the weekend every single time, without fail, every single

386
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: Monday morning, and you're like, you guys are not going

387
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: to believe what happened to me this weekend? And she

388
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 1: would go on to tell the craziest story that you

389
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: would be like a once in a in a two

390
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: year period to a normal person, something like this would

391
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: happen to you, and it would happen to Sarah every weekend,

392
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: and we'd be we'd be like, Sarah, you're you're putting

393
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: us on it. Can't that can have happened to you

394
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: this weekend, and you're not gonna believe it. And then

395
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: on top of that, and my keys fell and then

396
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: my wedding ring got lost, and I remember one story

397
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: was like a car lost control and started barreling down

398
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: a hill and her Beyonce at the time had to

399
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: jump in the car or grabbed a kid out of

400
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: the way or something like that. And then there was

401
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: then her wedding ring fell down a gutter, and every

402
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: every weekend it was like it was like here we go,

403
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 1: and Sarah would have a half hour story like you guys,

404
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: and she was always breathless. She was like, I'm not

405
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: gonna believe what donald. At two fifty four, one of

406
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 1: the most important characters in Scrub's history is introduced, a

407
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 1: character very near and dear to our hearts named Rowdy. Yes, absolutely,

408
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: I made that note. Also, holy cow, Rowdy that joke

409
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 1: when I when we were filming it, I was like,

410
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: this is the oddest thing I've ever done in my life.

411
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: This is a stuffed dog, and we're gonna pretend like

412
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: it's our pet. I think Bill will have to ask him.

413
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 1: Let's make a note to ask him when he comes on.

414
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: But I think that the idea was that some doctor

415
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: had told him that they never had time to have

416
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: a pet, especially when they were just starting out, because

417
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 1: their hours were so insane, and so he thought it

418
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: would be funny if if we got a taxes I

419
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: mean pet. I mean, that's the oddest thing I've ever

420
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: heard of in my life. I know, just I mean,

421
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 1: where do they find that thing? Exactly? Who in the

422
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 1: right mind was like, you know what, I think people

423
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: I do think it's a thing. I mean, I really think.

424
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure out there are fans. Would you're listening, you

425
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: can write in and tell us. But I do think

426
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: there are people that taxidermy their pet. Okay, I don't understand, Joel,

427
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 1: have you ever heard of this? Joel's nodding, She has

428
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 1: heard of this, Barbara Streis. And Barbara Streis and I

429
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: believe his taxidermid and cloned her dogs. She clones her

430
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 1: dog because so much so I think she's on like

431
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: volume five. We have the technology to clone animals. Yeah,

432
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: your dog. You didn't know that. I did not know

433
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 1: that you can clone your dog. It all started with

434
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: Dolly the sheep. Remember they cloned the sheep Dolly that

435
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: I thought that was like only a couple of years ago.

436
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: And that was that was many years ago, and then

437
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 1: since since. Now, if you're Barbara streisand I'm sure it's

438
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: very expensive, you can clone your dog. So rowdy was taxidermy? Now?

439
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: I tried to get rowdy when the show was over,

440
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,959
Speaker 1: and um, I listened, we did nine years I I

441
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 1: said to Bill, the only thing I want from everything

442
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 1: is rowdy. I think would be a wonderful souvenir for

443
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: me to have, and he said sure, and then the

444
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: people at Disney who owned the show, said no, you

445
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: can't have Rowdy. He belongs to Disney. And I pictured, like,

446
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: remember at the end of the Raiders of the Lost Arc,

447
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: how they put the Ark of the Covenant way in

448
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: the back. I pictured Rowdy going into like an endless

449
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 1: infinite of you know, umhouse warehouse in the back, and

450
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: like the forklift is going by like other taxidermy dogs,

451
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 1: and he's going like way, way way in the back,

452
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: the dog from Fraser's tax exactly. And I was just

453
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: so bummed. So when I made my film wish I

454
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 1: was here that you were in very very funnily as

455
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: the Ashton Martin dealer. I I said to Disney, Hey,

456
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: for the scrubs fans, I thought it'd be funny if

457
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: I put Rowdy like in the back of a scene,

458
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: like like an Easter egg for them to find. And

459
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: I said, kind of borrowed the dog just to put,

460
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 1: you know, just a little Easter egg for everybody. They said,

461
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 1: we will, but we're gonna send him with a bodyguard

462
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 1: because we're worried that you're gonna try and steal him

463
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: once he's delivered. So they sent Row with a handler.

464
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: They sent the taxi Durman dog with a handler. I

465
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 1: feel like that's understandable though, because I feel like if

466
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: they didn't send the dog with the handler somewhere along

467
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 1: the way, the dog would have got lost. I wasn't

468
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 1: going to steal the dog. I was gonna do my

469
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: best behaviors. He looked, he looked, he did not look

470
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: as good as he he looked thin. I remember. I

471
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 1: know it makes no sense, but I remember when he

472
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: showed up on set with his bodyguard, thinking like, he

473
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 1: doesn't look good. He's not being taken care of, not

474
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: being taken care of at all, Like one of his

475
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: paws was all JANKI and like I had to like

476
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: flew him. Do you remember the prop master who hit Rowdy.

477
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is Scrubs Urban legend or not,

478
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: but go ahead, you tell it. Well, I just know

479
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: that we had a prop master who didn't work out. Yes,

480
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,679
Speaker 1: he was. He was let go and get back at production.

481
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: He decided that he was going to hide Rowdy in

482
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: the ceiling. As the Scrubs Urban legend goes, he was

483
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: let go and he was angry about being let go.

484
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:14,679
Speaker 1: And then you know, we were in the hospital that

485
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: had all those you know, lower tiled ceilings that you

486
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 1: see in hospitals, and apparently he he hid Rowdy up

487
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: in the ceiling tiles above the prop room. That's when,

488
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: by the way, that's when everyone started to be like, oh, ship,

489
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: if we lose Rowdy, this is bad, we need to

490
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 1: back up. And that's when they got Stephen, right. But

491
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 1: they had like three or four different rowdies though, so

492
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: there was just two. There was Rowdy and Stephen. Do

493
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 1: you remember, because there was a whole episode where where

494
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 1: Judy which where uh? And then I feel their balls

495
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: and then I feel their balls and I'm like, no,

496
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: that's Stephen. So in the world of scrubs, j D

497
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: had memorized the two different dog taxidermy dogs ball sacks. No,

498
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 1: that's Stephen. Um. So let's talk about our apartment set,

499
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: because this is the first time you're seeing our apartment.

500
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: This was built into the hospital. You know, normally you'd

501
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: have a set like this on a sound stage, but

502
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: in order for us to do the whole show at

503
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 1: this abandoned hospital, Cabinot McMullen, our genius production designer found

504
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: a way to uh, to build all of this into

505
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was. It was like the

506
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: urgent care wing or something. No, if this wasn't an

507
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: urgent care wing, this was actually in the basement of

508
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,400
Speaker 1: the hospital. Urgent care turned out to be the bar,

509
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 1: the bar and all of that stuff, right, but this

510
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 1: was this was actually right by the children's ward in

511
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: the hospital. So if you went, the knocked out some

512
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 1: walls and so this this was this was in you know,

513
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: this looks like pretty damn good apartment, but it was

514
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 1: in in the hospital. Yeah. It was also the loading

515
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: area also, so when they would cut and at night

516
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,719
Speaker 1: when they wanted to bring things into the hospital. On

517
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: the other side of the wall, there was this big

518
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: garage door that you could open up and load all

519
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 1: the equipment. I remember it was always incredibly hot, right,

520
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 1: there was no it wasn't it wasn't meant to be

521
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: a sound stage with lights and everything. The whole hospital

522
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: was on fire because you know, you couldn't run air

523
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: condition when we're running like we had used to have

524
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: the tubes. Remember we would have the tube. They'd have

525
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,360
Speaker 1: a tube wrangler. Even in our dressing rooms. They gave us,

526
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: like halfway through season one, they gave us our own

527
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: little air conditioning units to keep us cool because the

528
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 1: hospital got so hot in the summer. And but I remember,

529
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: so there was an air conditioning in the hospital, and

530
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 1: so they had these exterior units, and they had these tubes,

531
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: and I'm sure you've seen them. They were like, I

532
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 1: don't know, two feet in diameter. They'd be running everywhere

533
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: to try and make this comfortable, but they were. It

534
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: was it was someone's full time job to try and

535
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 1: wrangle the tubes. So what I noticed about this episode

536
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: I kept waiting for one line that made it into

537
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: the promo for the first episode but wasn't in the

538
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 1: first episode. And that's when Elliott says to me, Hey,

539
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 1: when did you meet Morgan Freeman. I laughed out loud

540
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 1: when that line came up. I mean, I knew it

541
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: was coming. And you know, there's some jokes in this that,

542
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: even though you know them, I just laughed out loud

543
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 1: when I heard that. It's just that was so freaking funny. Yeah,

544
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 1: I laughed my ass off, and you know it's really

545
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: my mom. But that's not even the funny part. The

546
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: funny part is she goes she has lovely freckles. I

547
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: love her freckles. Okay, So the next thing I wrote

548
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: down was Todd the introduction of Rob Machio and Rob

549
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 1: kind of is this guy right? I mean, not that

550
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: he was like me, not that he was a womanizer

551
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: like this, but he was kind of like a funny,

552
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: funny jockey kind of guy. Absolutely, he was very well.

553
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 1: He was pretty good athlete, you know what I mean.

554
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: He took really good care of his body and stuff

555
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: like that. I remember he told me he ate a

556
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: pint of Ben and Jerry's every day, which I always

557
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 1: found amazing because he would have to work out like

558
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: that much extra to work off a pint of Ben

559
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: and Jerry's a dead, so he must have worked out

560
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: of time to have his his Todd body. And he

561
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 1: was a lot older than us at the time to

562
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: this episode. No, he does look good. I don't remember.

563
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 1: He wasn't like like that old. But remember he was

564
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 1: older than us. He was a lot old. He was

565
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 1: like in his i'm gonna say thirties something. We were

566
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: twenty something and he was like thirty five, thirty six.

567
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: Rob's going to come on the podcast, and I really

568
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 1: enjoyed the fact that, you know, you do projects and

569
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: sometimes they don't really put the effort into develop you know,

570
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: these romantic relationships with the characters. And I really enjoyed

571
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: the effort put into Carla and Turk's courtship and how

572
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and how it became uh

573
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 1: storyline in the show. And it wasn't just something that

574
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: from the beginning they had chemistry and now they're dating.

575
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: You know, Turk had to work for it, Carla had

576
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 1: to work for it, and then and the ultimate thing

577
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: was at the end they you know, they're they're married

578
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: with kids and stuff like that. I love that we

579
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: see their growth from the pilot to this episode and

580
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: then as the show goes along. You guys were such

581
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: a good ying yang for each other too. I mean, you're,

582
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: you know, the sort of silly jockey surgeon and she's

583
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: just like so smart and and clever and and kind

584
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: of running the entire hospital. And I just thought the

585
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: way that they wrote your flirtation in your in your

586
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: chemistry was really and you guys performed it really, really well.

587
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: Can I tell him the story about what Casey first

588
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 1: said when I tried to set you up absolutely. We

589
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 1: were in the we were in a nightclub, Donald and

590
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: I and I see Casey Cobb, the beautiful Casey Cob

591
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: across the club, and she was with Jessica Simpson because

592
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: she was um she assistant. She was her assistant. And

593
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 1: now they're like best friends. And I knew them just

594
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: as acquaintances. And Donald had such a crosh on Casey.

595
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: He was just staring at her, like just like Doe Ide,

596
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: like I couldn't couldn't even think about other stuff, wouldn't

597
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: even wouldn't just like lost. So finally I got the

598
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: courage to go up to Casey and I'm like, hey,

599
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: um so trying to be the best wing man in

600
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: the world. And I'm like, hey, so, I appreciate you

601
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 1: for this. I was like, hey, my my buddy really

602
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: likes you. He really thinks you're really beautiful. And she goes,

603
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: who and I point over, like not over to Donald

604
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: and she goes then you have like nine kids, And

605
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: I always thought that was so funny cut to them

606
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: getting married in my backyard. At the time, I didn't

607
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: have nine kids. I only had four. I had had four.

608
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: But it was a funny sassy line from her and

609
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: your charms obviously worked, because, however, many years later they

610
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: were married in my backyard. Yeah, thanks to you being

611
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 1: a great wing man. It all started with a wingman line.

612
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: I remember me being like, yeah, will you go over

613
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: there and talk to her for me? And you're being like,

614
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: are you fucking kidding me? Go over yourself. I'm like,

615
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: oh no, no, no, no, no, no no, and you're like,

616
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: oh no, I remember you think I got the courage.

617
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: I got the No, you did get the courage. But

618
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: you went over there and then you came back and

619
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, what did she say? Did I tell you?

620
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: You told me right No? No, no, you told me

621
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: right away. You're like, dude. She was like, doesn't he

622
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: have like nine kids? And I remember being like, oh no,

623
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 1: because I was like, that's what the ladies in California think,

624
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: that's what Hollywood thinks about me. I'm gonna dude with

625
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: all the kids. Well, it's funny that it's funny that

626
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: Like she wasn't like, oh no, he's not cute, or

627
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: oh no, he's not funny, or oh no, I don't

628
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 1: think he's funny on TV and movies. She was just like,

629
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: dott he had like nine keys with her son accident. Anyway,

630
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: they should be an inspiration to you men and women

631
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: out there who think you can't possibly get that person

632
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 1: you have a crush on, And they might even open

633
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: with a line equivalent to, doesn't he have like nine kids?

634
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 1: But if you just started persistent like Donald was, you

635
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 1: could one day get married in my backyard? All right?

636
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: Should we move on to We talked about Rob running

637
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: line because I always thought that was funny. So Rob

638
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: as a testament to Rob Maschio, who played Todd, he

639
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 1: would take it so seriously. And I'm not making fun

640
00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: of Rob, because I get it. He didn't have a

641
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: lot to do in every episode, and he would always

642
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: make sure he was doing the best he could. And

643
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: but sometimes we'd look over and he would just be

644
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: running his one line over and over and over. Air

645
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: five five. Yeah, we just see him five. Like I'd

646
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: be like, Rob's over there running line Air five five,

647
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: high five, Air five, air five. And they really did hurt,

648
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: those those freaking Rob high fives. For what it's worth.

649
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: I was about to say, it seemed like you got

650
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: used to it after a while. No, they really hurt.

651
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: And the noise was added, but man, they really hurt

652
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: Sarah digging the grave at around eight minutes and forty

653
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: six seconds. That's become like a popular meme. I always see, like,

654
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 1: you know, when fans send us gifts and memes, and

655
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 1: I see him on the internet and on the interwebs.

656
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: That's what I always see, is it's funny watching it

657
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: when you go, oh, that's that meme I've seen before.

658
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: But that Sarah digging is one people use when like

659
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: they're putting their foot in their mouth digging the grave.

660
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: I forgot. I totally forgot about that, and so when

661
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: I saw it, it was really refreshing and really funny.

662
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: Huh yeah, it was very funny. And then they throw

663
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: dirt on he rose. That's a great joke. The next

664
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: thing I wrote down was, oh, that would you like

665
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: to play a game? Thing with the robot voice? Do

666
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: you remember what movie that's from? Of course, War Games? Yeah,

667
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: that's one of my favorite movies. And then another one

668
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 1: was from Buck Rogers BDBD BDBD Buck that's Buck Rogers,

669
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 1: but war games? Would you how about a Thermo nuclear war?

670
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: Remember that? How about? And yeah it's Matthew Roderick and

671
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 1: Ali Sitty. Of course I remember they're listening to this

672
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 1: podcast and you haven't seen War Games. I need you

673
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: to put it on after this podcast is over, because

674
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: it is such a good movie. Yeah, I mean you

675
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: don't have to put it on after the podcast, I think, yeah,

676
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: well not during, right. I remember being a kid in thinking, well,

677
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: everything Matthew Roderick did it when I was a kid,

678
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: I just thought was incredible. I just wanted to be

679
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: Matthew Broderick, especially in war games and war games in

680
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: in Farris Bieler's day, Yes, of course, I mean he's

681
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: kind of the same character, well kind of sort in

682
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: war Games he was like a kid that didn't have

683
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: a lot friends, and Farris Bueller he was the king

684
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 1: of such a good actor. Though in War Games, you know,

685
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: by the way, a little tribute, they made a sequel

686
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 1: to War Games that the writer director had nothing to

687
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 1: do with. Um what was it called? I don't know.

688
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: Joel will insert that here later in her voice. Four

689
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: Games The Dead Code, which came out in two thousand eight,

690
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 1: directed by Stuart Gillard. Yeah, but neither the two stars,

691
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 1: Aliet or Matthew Broddock were in it, right, that that

692
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 1: one's not the sequel is not Zack and Donald approved.

693
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: But the first movie is oh, I just the thirty three.

694
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 1: I just wanted to point out that's the very first

695
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: time we saw the Lounge, our Doctor's lounge where so

696
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,839
Speaker 1: many of much of the show ends up taking place.

697
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 1: And the introduction of Doug. I didn't realize Doug got

698
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,799
Speaker 1: introduced so early. Neither did I. I didn't realize that either.

699
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: I also remember that pac Man machine and how when

700
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,919
Speaker 1: we were working that was an actual, real working pac

701
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 1: Man game and I would get kicked off a set.

702
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: I remember Franklin got Better and Scott Harris kicking me up.

703
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,280
Speaker 1: These are were the first a d s on scrub

704
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: as System directors. Yeah, I remember them kicking me off

705
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 1: set because I kept trying to get the high score

706
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 1: on pac Man. I remember that pac Man game, and

707
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: I remember when they finally made a sort of pac

708
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 1: Man game didn't work, and I was so piste off.

709
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: At a certain point, they made it so it wouldn't

710
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 1: function even if you plugged it in. They got wise.

711
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: I loved that. I thought that was the coolest set

712
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,280
Speaker 1: piece ever. And I was happy to see Doug because

713
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: he's very funny. And I remember in The Wizard of

714
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: ob episode which I directed, one of the funniest lines

715
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: he ever said, which was, dead people should be dead.

716
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: Remember when I come back to life, Why are you

717
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 1: hitting me? I thought you were dead. Why are you

718
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: hitting me? Because dead people should be dead. I would

719
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 1: have done the same thing. Okay, I thought at thirteen fifty,

720
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 1: there's a cool moment where, just stylistically, Adam Bernstein again

721
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: just sort of setting up the style of the show

722
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: where everyone's looking into the lens talking to me, and

723
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,279
Speaker 1: then it comes to Judy and she does it, and

724
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: then she looks down and the camera pulls back and

725
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: next to her. Just stylistically, that was really kind of

726
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: a cool thing. That was pretty cool. Adam sort of

727
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,760
Speaker 1: set the bar early on as the director of episode

728
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: one and two that that the camera was going to

729
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 1: be a character in the show, and every director that

730
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: came on after would add their own little bit of

731
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 1: style to it, especially in this first season, you know,

732
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: figuring out innovative ways to move the camera and to

733
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: do camera shots and trick shots. Adam really he did

734
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,240
Speaker 1: us a great service, him and Bill by giving us something.

735
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 1: In hospital shows, it's really about the doctors and the

736
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 1: nurses and everything like that. Adam and Bill found a

737
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: way to make the hospital a character in the show.

738
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,680
Speaker 1: And they found a way to do that early on,

739
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So when you're there, it's

740
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 1: never the same. It doesn't feel like, you know, I'm

741
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 1: watching hospital procedural or I'm watching It's something wacky about it.

742
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: There's something different about it, and I think that really

743
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: helped with telling the story. You know, j D and

744
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: his group of friends in this hospital. Yeah, and Adam.

745
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: I think Adam really set the tone for that, and

746
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 1: I remember him and of course the next few that

747
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 1: come up, you know, all all the directors in this

748
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: in this first batch. I think, um Mark Buckland's another

749
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: one coming up that really helps set the style and

750
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,880
Speaker 1: the look. Some things were phased out, as I said, um,

751
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: the whib noises like when you go when you're waving

752
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 1: your hands. Yeah, so there was a lot of sound

753
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 1: effects obviously, but that whip thing is like one thing

754
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 1: they toned down. This high school fantasy that starts at

755
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes or so. It's so funny, so well done,

756
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: don't you think hilarious? Dude. The fact that they put

757
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 1: the pimples on her and the braces and Kur and

758
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: band stuff, and then all of us being like the

759
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,800
Speaker 1: cool kids and stuff like that. You know, Alomba is

760
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 1: I guess really the only nurse from the pilot that

761
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: made it all the way through, because there's people that

762
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 1: surrounded Judy's where I'm like, I don't recognize any of

763
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 1: these people. I recognize a few. I recognize a couple

764
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,720
Speaker 1: of the women. By the way, none of the people

765
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:01,320
Speaker 1: who became like major back around people that we focused

766
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 1: on or are in any of these episodes would be

767
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: interesting when we as we go to watch it will

768
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,879
Speaker 1: be trut to see when we see their first appearances, Like, Yeah,

769
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: I saw one dude who was this bald guy and

770
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 1: he kind of looks like colonel doctor but he's a

771
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: bald headed guy and he shows up in so many

772
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 1: scenes like back to back to back to back to back.

773
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 1: Let's talk about how in coxs apartment that looks like

774
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 1: a set. Dude, No, it's so bad. First of all,

775
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 1: not to dis cabin, because I'm sure that at this

776
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: time they were already out of money, but this is

777
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:30,840
Speaker 1: the only set so far that looks like they just

778
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 1: put a couch into hospital, into my hospital, Like there's

779
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: so many things on the walls that are like why

780
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: is there a speaker on the side of his wall

781
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: at his house? Not only that, why is that big

782
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: window there that goes nowhere? I know it's so funny,

783
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: and then we can we justify it by making a

784
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 1: joke about like, oh, your apartment is so cold. But

785
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, man, they I think this is

786
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 1: This was the first moment like where does he Where

787
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 1: does he live? But he lived in the hospital. Yeah.

788
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: I love this scene between me and Johnny And this

789
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,479
Speaker 1: is one of the on his lines of scrubs. I remember,

790
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: do you want to be the big spoon of the

791
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,880
Speaker 1: little spoon? I had no idea what spooning was. I

792
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 1: knew that you could spoon, like I know what spooning was,

793
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 1: but I didn't know that you could be there was

794
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: a big spoon and a little spoon. I had no

795
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 1: idea that that existed, and that kind of was like

796
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: little spoon. That whole scene is hilarious, you know what

797
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: I mean, Even though when he kicks you out and

798
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 1: he gives you the lesson and he's like, now come here,

799
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: let me give you a hug, and you're like, get

800
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: the funk out. Of here, and he's like, come on,

801
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: come on, come on, give me a hug. And he's

802
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 1: like me uh, and he's like, come on, give me

803
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,320
Speaker 1: a hug, and you go up for the huggy. I

804
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,840
Speaker 1: gotta get out of here. Very funny, very He's so

805
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: good and I really just so good. I really just

806
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 1: liked that scene between the two of us. It really

807
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 1: kind of showed the dance with Johnny Sea where it

808
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 1: was going to be like, you know, fucking with me

809
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: a ton and really, but then eventually there'd always be

810
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 1: a lesson underneath it, and he'd always drop in and

811
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 1: be a good mentor. I mean that's when this is

812
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 1: called my mentor. So he's doesn't want me mo mentor,

813
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: doesn't mere mentor. And in the end he finally drops

814
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 1: some knowledge like you can't save these people. All you

815
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 1: can do is do your asked. You're not responsible for

816
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,359
Speaker 1: changing people's habits. You can't make someone who's gonna smoke

817
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 1: not smoke. And I know that this is something and

818
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 1: that doctors must deal with all the time. They wish

819
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: they could make their patients stop eating that fast food,

820
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,720
Speaker 1: They wish they could make their patients stop smoking. Whatever

821
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 1: it is Johnny's trying to teach j D early on,

822
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: like you don't have control over over that. You can

823
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 1: only do what you can do. I had made a

824
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 1: note on that. Also, when doctors come into the hospital

825
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 1: for the first few months, maybe even more than that,

826
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 1: they take everything so personal. And that's great to have

827
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: that type of attitude, but if you continue that type

828
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: of attitude, it's going to be really hard for you

829
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 1: to make it as a doctor, you know what I mean.

830
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: And that's what j D had to experience, you know

831
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: what I mean. J D cared so much about Will

832
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 1: and you know, and Will quitting his cigarette addiction, and

833
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 1: he thought that that was a bonding experience between him

834
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:04,359
Speaker 1: and Dr Cox. You know, dude, I know you're thinking

835
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: about it, and let's talk it over so we can

836
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 1: come back in tomorrow with the game plan and stop

837
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: this dude from smoking cigarettes. And at the end of

838
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 1: the day, that wasn't your job. Your job is to

839
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: test and treat, you know what I mean. That was

840
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 1: j D's job. Let's test him and see what ailments

841
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: he has, and any ailment we find, we're gonna treat

842
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: and try and save him from all of this extracurricular

843
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,399
Speaker 1: activity of you giving a crap about you know, how

844
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 1: he got here. That's not in the cards because at

845
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: the end of the day, if this person does pass away,

846
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 1: how do you develop the strength to get up again?

847
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 1: If you were so so invested in this person's well being.

848
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 1: And as much as that sucks to hear, that's how

849
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: doctors have to be. That's how nurses have to be.

850
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: They're gonna deal with death, They're gonna deal with life,

851
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: they're gonna deal with disease, They're going to deal with

852
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 1: all of these things. And how do you put up

853
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 1: a shield so at the end of the day, if

854
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: you do lose somebody, you can come back the next

855
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 1: day and do your job, you know what I mean?

856
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 1: And that was what Cox was trying to prepare j

857
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 1: D for early on, early on in the show, because

858
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,320
Speaker 1: like he's like, you need to get used to this.

859
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 1: This is not You're not gonna be able to save

860
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 1: every single person and change all their habits. By the way,

861
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the credits and I see that John

862
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: Deucey's who was the guest star as Will his character's

863
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 1: name Will Forte. And was there some connection to Will Forte?

864
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: Did someone wasn't so. I think one of our writers

865
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: was partnered with Will four Day. I do believe you're right.

866
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 1: I was Swarts Shorts. Yeah. Speaking of Mike schwartzach the

867
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: show that I'm that I shot all last year Emergence,

868
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 1: which is on ABC, which is another Disney show. The

869
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: creators of that show wrote on ED back in the

870
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:59,439
Speaker 1: day with a young Mike Schwartz. That's not musty where

871
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: Bill found him. Yeah, ED came first because I remember

872
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: when the show ED was on and Tom Kavanaugh's picture

873
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: went up on billboards and I still didn't have a job.

874
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,840
Speaker 1: My mom would call me and be like, there is

875
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: a show where this guy looks exactly like you and

876
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 1: and he's on billboards everywhere. And I remember thinking like, great, yeah,

877
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 1: that's not me, Mom. It's kind of It's kind of

878
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 1: crazy how he came on to be a brother later on.

879
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 1: I know, I wish they I wish they would have

880
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 1: had I wish you would have had two brothers. I

881
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 1: wish it would have been him and then Dak Shephard

882
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 1: as your other brother. I know, I get this thing.

883
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,239
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is about my face, but

884
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 1: people tell me I look like so many different people. Obviously,

885
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 1: Dak Shepherd's the most common these days, but I used

886
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 1: to get Tom Kavanaugh and Ray Romano. Yeah I remember

887
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: Ray Romano. Yeah yeah. I Finally early on when our

888
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 1: show launched, everyone was saying that I was like young

889
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 1: Ray Romano, and I remember Ray. I met Ray Romano

890
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,839
Speaker 1: like on a press line somewhere, and he looked at

891
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: me and he was like, oh, it's like looking in

892
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 1: a mirror. I couldn't remember if he was finding the comparison. Funny,

893
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 1: can you tell the story about how when we went

894
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 1: to Vegas and I was in the bathroom and I

895
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,359
Speaker 1: was washing my hands and I left and the guy goes, oh,

896
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,240
Speaker 1: you know who that was, right? Do you remember the story? Unfortunately,

897
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: I remember the story, but I forgot the punchline, So

898
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to tell it. So we're in Vegas

899
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 1: and we're hanging out. It's us, Josh Rayden, our Buddy

900
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:42,319
Speaker 1: Carey Brothers, and Michael Weston, who also at some point

901
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: was on the show. Ye came on the show as

902
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 1: private dancer, right right, right, But Carrie and Josh both

903
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: had music on the show, if I remember correctly, right, yes, right,

904
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: So we're all in Vegas. We go to Vegas. It's

905
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 1: our first time going to Vegas to as a group,

906
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: and we're you know, we're very young, and we've we've

907
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 1: got a little bit of money at this point to

908
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: spend in Vegas. We had a really good time. We

909
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 1: stayed at the MGM Grand They hooked it up for us.

910
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,720
Speaker 1: The story, as I even corrected, I was in the bathroom.

911
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 1: Donald in the bathroom and Donald washed his hands and

912
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:13,839
Speaker 1: then he left and the person that was in there

913
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: said to his friend, you know who that was? And

914
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: in my mind, I'm thinking, like Donald getting recognized, and

915
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:21,919
Speaker 1: the guy goes who and he goes, that was Erkele.

916
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 1: That was fucking Rkle, dude, And they were like freaking

917
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 1: out that Erkel had been in the bathroom with them.

918
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 1: I love that to this day, I you know, to

919
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 1: this day. Anytime I could be mentioned in the same

920
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 1: story as Jalio White, Tay Digs, all these people who

921
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 1: were like, you know, iconic for being really good at

922
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: playing a character, or you know, Julia went on to

923
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 1: do Stefan Urkle, which was really freaking awesome and it

924
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: showed his range as an actor and everything like that.

925
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 1: Anytime I could be mentioned in the same story. Like

926
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: one time quest Love hit me up. It was like, Yo,

927
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 1: somebody said I looked like you, and I was like,

928
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,840
Speaker 1: that's the best day ever, dude. I remember when we

929
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 1: first became friends and we'd go out and about no

930
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 1: one knew who I was at all. But some people

931
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 1: would would know Donald's name. But a lot of people

932
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 1: would just be like, yo, yo clueless, clueless. They would

933
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:17,800
Speaker 1: just yell clueless at you right all the time, YO clueless, clueless,

934
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 1: Yo clueless. And then and then they point to you

935
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 1: and be like YO clueless by his friend, Yo clueless,

936
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 1: but his friend look at clueless. His friend's clueless and

937
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 1: clueless his friends. That story has a horrible ending, though, man,

938
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 1: it has a horrible well. The ending is, you know

939
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 1: you did Garden State and all of a sudden he

940
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 1: became Zach Braff and people are like, oh, ship Zach Braff,

941
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 1: and look who he's hanging out with. He's got clueless

942
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 1: with him. That's not what happened. That is what happened.

943
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 1: That's funny. I dis remember, you know. It's funny the

944
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,280
Speaker 1: thing the things that people yell at you on the street,

945
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 1: like you don't get clueless anymore. I'm sure, but no.

946
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 1: But I get a lot of black scrub thanks the

947
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 1: family guy. I get a lot of black scrubs and

948
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 1: get scrubs and you know, yeah, I got I get

949
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 1: where turk all the time. Sometimes people will know my

950
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 1: name and they just talked to me right away, and

951
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 1: I I can't figure out if I know them in

952
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,880
Speaker 1: real life or they just know me as an actor.

953
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,320
Speaker 1: And especially when I when I'm in New York because

954
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 1: I lived there part of the year and people just

955
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 1: walking on the street just start talking to you, and

956
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:17,320
Speaker 1: you don't want to be I don't want to be

957
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 1: rude at all, but I'm trying to think, like do

958
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: I know this person or do they just know my name.

959
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:24,800
Speaker 1: One time I was parallel parking in Manhattan and it

960
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 1: was going horribly and some guy walks by. He's like,

961
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 1: you're killing it, braf, and I just couldn't remember. Like,

962
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:35,839
Speaker 1: I just was like, do I know that I don't

963
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 1: think I know that person. They just give me ship.

964
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,680
Speaker 1: That happened to me recently at Starbucks before this whole

965
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 1: quarantine thing happened. I was at Starbucks and a guy

966
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:45,319
Speaker 1: comes up to me, goes, Donald, how you been man.

967
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, man, how's it going. He's like, you know,

968
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm good. And then I realized, so I don't know

969
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:51,320
Speaker 1: this guy. I was like, wait, how do how do

970
00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 1: we know each other? And he says, oh, dude, I'm

971
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,720
Speaker 1: just such a huge fan of yours. And I remember thinking,

972
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: holy cow, that's how you get caught out there. Dude,

973
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:02,400
Speaker 1: from here on out, if somebody says to me, Donald,

974
00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 1: how's it going and I don't know who they are,

975
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be embarrassed anymore because that's that

976
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 1: moment of embarrassment where you're like, wait, because I don't

977
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 1: want to want to hurt it, hurt anybody's feelings. Oh.

978
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 1: I thought of another person that I used to really

979
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: get a lot before. Was Anne Hathaway's boyfriend that went

980
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 1: to jail. Do you remember that guy? I don't. He

981
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,320
Speaker 1: was involved in some I think it was business or

982
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,800
Speaker 1: money crime something, but he went to jail and I

983
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 1: walk in. This is years ago. I walk into a

984
00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 1: coffee bean and I walk in and I see our

985
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,840
Speaker 1: senior Hall and he's looking right at me, and I

986
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: don't think I don't remember ever met our senior Hall,

987
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:40,839
Speaker 1: but I was kind of geeked out because I loved

988
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 1: Senior Hall, and he kind of smiled at me. He

989
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 1: brought me over to the end of the counter where

990
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: they delivered the coffees, and there you can hear the music.

991
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: Oh is Eddie Murphy standing there? And I'm like having

992
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 1: one of the greatest moments in my life. And now

993
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:57,879
Speaker 1: when I meet famous people, I can normally hold it together. Yeah,

994
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it. I remember saying to you one time, dude,

995
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,360
Speaker 1: how do you do this? Man? Like that's freaking Benjamin

996
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 1: Bratt right there, and you're not even geeking out. Really,

997
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 1: You're just like it's not even up and You're like,

998
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't, I don't geek out. Well, I

999
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,280
Speaker 1: can hold it together sometimes, but when I met Eddie Murphy,

1000
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: I mean I just started gushing. I was like, Eddie,

1001
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, but I just want to say that,

1002
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,759
Speaker 1: like you were like such an inspiration to me, and

1003
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,200
Speaker 1: and and and and and Beverly Hill's cop I I

1004
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,040
Speaker 1: gotta tell you it's I use it as an example

1005
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,279
Speaker 1: all the time because like the bad guys were like

1006
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,399
Speaker 1: legitimately scary, but and he goes, he goes, who bad

1007
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,800
Speaker 1: that bad guys weren't scary? Who Victor Maitland? And I

1008
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,040
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, Eddie Murphy just said Victor

1009
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 1: Maitland to me in a coffee shop. My life has

1010
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 1: peaked right now. He's like Victor Maitland and I'm like, no, not,

1011
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:41,720
Speaker 1: I'm like Victor Maitland. Like well, I was like the Henchman.

1012
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:43,680
Speaker 1: He goes, yeah, the Henchman was scary. And then he

1013
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 1: interrupts me and he goes stares at me, and he goes,

1014
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,600
Speaker 1: anybody ever tell you look like Anne Hathaway his boyfriend

1015
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:54,239
Speaker 1: and went to jail. And I said what. He goes, yeah,

1016
00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:56,320
Speaker 1: because I was watching the news and I was like,

1017
00:49:56,840 --> 00:50:03,520
Speaker 1: that looks like the dude from Scrubs. And I thought,

1018
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,160
Speaker 1: this is the most surreal moment of my entire life.

1019
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy is telling recognize a he knows who I

1020
00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 1: am because he knows what Scrubs is, and be he's

1021
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: trying to figure out if I've been told before that

1022
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,759
Speaker 1: I looked like and Hathaway's boyfriend. By the way, the

1023
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:18,319
Speaker 1: last part of that story I gotta tell you because

1024
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: it's so funny. I go to The Layman's Rob premiere

1025
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:23,880
Speaker 1: the movie premiere, and because I love Layman's rob as

1029
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 1: walking and I know and Hathaway as an acquaintance. And

1030
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:41,839
Speaker 1: but and this is right around when all that ship

1031
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:45,120
Speaker 1: went down with her boyfriend and I'm I'm walking towards

1032
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 1: her to say congratulations, and her father stands up and

1033
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 1: like gives me this look like I'm gonna kill this mother.

1034
00:50:55,880 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 1: He's got the balls to crash my daughter's mirror. I'm

1035
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 1: gonna strangle him. And I got within ten feet of

1036
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,280
Speaker 1: the dude and then his face just fucking broke anyone

1037
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,400
Speaker 1: like side of breath relief and realized that it was me,

1038
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 1: not the ex boyfriend. Oh man, Now you know what

1039
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 1: black people go through all the time. All right, I

1040
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:23,880
Speaker 1: think we have a caller, right Joel, We do. Welcome Kayla.

1041
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 1: Thanks for being here. What's up? Kayla? Hi? Kayla? Hi?

1042
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:35,279
Speaker 1: Are you? I'm good? They're crazy the good. We hear you.

1043
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,360
Speaker 1: It's time. Thank you so much for being our second

1044
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:41,239
Speaker 1: ever caller. We're very, very excited to have you. We

1045
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,760
Speaker 1: can answer any question you have about anything, well, almost

1046
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 1: any question, but mostly Scrubs related. That's about it. That's here, Okay.

1047
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 1: I guess like my first question would be a lot

1048
00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:55,360
Speaker 1: of shows that premiered at that time had that awkward

1049
00:51:55,560 --> 00:52:00,479
Speaker 1: first season, but for whatever reason for me a viewer,

1050
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,600
Speaker 1: Scrubs didn't have that. Was that something that you guys

1051
00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 1: all felt as a cat Uh, speaking from I was

1052
00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 1: just happy to be on television. H When I look

1053
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 1: back at it now, absolutely, you're absolutely right. Scrubs started

1054
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 1: off at a high point and it just kept going

1055
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 1: up from there. Uh, as far as storytelling goes, and

1056
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,759
Speaker 1: that's really you know, you gotta give props to Bill

1057
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:26,279
Speaker 1: Lawrence and his team of writers. Also, you know the crew,

1058
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 1: and you know how they were in line and just

1059
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,560
Speaker 1: ready to go once we started with so many shows.

1060
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 1: I agree, Kayla, you go, um, you can't help but go,

1061
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,360
Speaker 1: especially with pilots. I'm always saying to friends and and

1062
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:40,120
Speaker 1: when you know, when you recommend the show, you're like,

1063
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:42,840
Speaker 1: give it like three episodes because you know the pilots

1064
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 1: good and everything, But you know there's kinds of pilots

1065
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,360
Speaker 1: you're so hard you have to introduce so much, so

1066
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 1: many characters, and and the tone and the style and

1067
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 1: the it's so hard to do a pilot have it worked.

1068
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,319
Speaker 1: So I guess you guys have said this to people too.

1069
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:55,800
Speaker 1: You're always like, just give you a couple of episodes.

1070
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:58,680
Speaker 1: Whereas I agree, build building such an amazing job with

1071
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:01,440
Speaker 1: with the pilot and the first few episodes that he

1072
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,320
Speaker 1: was able to in twenty three minutes an episode, be

1073
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:05,920
Speaker 1: able to just launch it. I'm just looking at the

1074
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,320
Speaker 1: my screen. This one was like twenty one minutes or so.

1075
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,280
Speaker 1: It's just amazing how much got crammed in and beautifully

1076
00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 1: woven together, you know, being on the show. I hate

1077
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: to brag about the show, but I think that's what

1078
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,359
Speaker 1: made the show so great, you know what I mean.

1079
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, you didn't have to say give

1080
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,160
Speaker 1: it two or three episodes. By the third episode, though,

1081
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 1: we were really on fire. You know, we were really

1082
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:29,840
Speaker 1: telling great stories. But we were telling great stories before that.

1083
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 1: It just, you know, it just elevated even higher after

1084
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 1: episode three because we found our groove. I love that

1085
00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:38,800
Speaker 1: because I remember my mom asked me a couplice, like

1086
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,120
Speaker 1: I need to start something, and I said, you should

1087
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 1: start scrubs from the beginning, because I know you came

1088
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,399
Speaker 1: in at this and pieces. She's like, so you don't

1089
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:47,319
Speaker 1: have an episode for me to start on. You start

1090
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:51,640
Speaker 1: from episode one. I love that. That's great, Kayla. Do

1091
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,960
Speaker 1: you have another question? Just because we're all in isolation

1092
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 1: and have nothing to do but to talk to you? Um, so,

1093
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,960
Speaker 1: I guess what's so great? Which is funny? You say?

1094
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:05,160
Speaker 1: Episode three? Episode two is probably my favorite because so

1095
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:09,280
Speaker 1: many of the show's major relationships are established in that episode.

1096
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 1: So was that chemistry instantaneous or did that come from

1097
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,800
Speaker 1: filming episodes over the coming week? You know, it's crazy?

1098
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,520
Speaker 1: Is that? That's how we opened the show today pretty much.

1099
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:23,600
Speaker 1: We talked about how episode two it really sets off

1100
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 1: the journey that a lot of these characters are going

1101
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 1: to have together. Carla and Turk, Carla and Elliott, everybody

1102
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 1: in the hospital and Dr Kelso, j D and Cox,

1103
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,359
Speaker 1: all of these stories are really starting to bubble at

1104
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 1: this point, you know what I mean? Or starting to

1105
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:46,759
Speaker 1: you know whatever? Sure if I don't, I don't know

1106
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 1: if we should use gurgle? No, Like you know, when

1107
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 1: like a boiling water starts to come to a gurgle,

1108
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,279
Speaker 1: isn't that the word. No, it's not. That's not what

1109
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:58,719
Speaker 1: gurgle means. Not gargle and gurgle are different. I just

1110
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,799
Speaker 1: like saying gurgle. Another big thing was that we all

1111
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 1: genuinely got along. Like you know, a lot of shows,

1112
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:06,799
Speaker 1: you're meeting all these new people. Just like any job,

1113
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,640
Speaker 1: there's mean people you don't like, there's people that you

1114
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:12,840
Speaker 1: do like. We all really clicked, like you know, and

1115
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure Donald and I have both been on projects

1116
00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 1: since then where the magic wasn't there. This was a

1117
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:20,759
Speaker 1: project where like all those people we were and the

1118
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,960
Speaker 1: writers and Bill and the directors, the crew, we were

1119
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 1: all friends and we were all hanging out. We would

1120
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 1: all go out together. We just really genuinely loved each other.

1121
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:33,080
Speaker 1: And a testament to the seven main characters in the show,

1122
00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:35,719
Speaker 1: we all you know, over nine years. We we had

1123
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: our moments. Of course, just like a family, you you'd

1124
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,960
Speaker 1: get an arguments over things. But but for a the time,

1125
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,759
Speaker 1: we all got along really, really, really well. And I

1126
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,600
Speaker 1: think that that shows in the relationships in the in

1127
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 1: the show. Because we we loved each other, we rooted

1128
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 1: for each other. If Donald had a moment where he

1129
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:53,560
Speaker 1: was killing it, like we weren't trying to upstage each other,

1130
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:55,960
Speaker 1: like go man, go be that. You're killing it right

1131
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:57,960
Speaker 1: now like we were rooting each other on you know,

1132
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:02,359
Speaker 1: we definitely where each other's biggest fans at the time

1133
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: for sure. Well, thank you, Kayla, thank you for calling in,
