1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,599
Speaker 1: And I remember being like, that is the most fed

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: up thing that I've ever heard in my life, where

3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,560
Speaker 1: it's like, we're looking for a Donald Faison type. I'll

4
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,960
Speaker 1: go in on the audition and they're like, well, we're

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: looking for Donald Faison type, but a better version of.

6
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 2: Donald donaldson ish but not full right.

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,080
Speaker 1: Don't go full phaseon.

8
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: You went full phase on, you Donaldson went too far

9
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 2: in the Phason direction.

10
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 3: Here's some stories that show we made about a bunch

11
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 3: of docs and nurses. Sah I said, here's a story next.

12
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: So YadA, YadA, Welcome back, everybody.

13
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Rewatch Show with back.

14
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 2: One two and now, Donald, you pointed out something very wise,

15
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: and that is that you know, when you do a pilot,

16
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 2: you shoot the pilot and then you have no idea

17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 2: if the show's gonna get picked up. And there's often

18
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 2: a lot of time between when you shot the pilot

19
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: and then let's say the network says, okay, we're gonna

20
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 2: make it a series, and then you go and you

21
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: you go to a thing called the upfronts, which is

22
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,919
Speaker 2: when your show is selected. You go to a huge

23
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 2: party in New York City where they announce where the

24
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: network is going to announce all of the new shows,

25
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 2: and this is a very thrilling thing for a young actor.

26
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And also when Scrubs got picked up, it was

27
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: considered one of the better pilots of that time. And

28
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: so when we went to upfronts, I remember all of

29
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: the heat that we had behind us at upfronts, Like

30
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: even the party for all of the upfront shows was

31
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: kind of themed towards us, you know what I mean.

32
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 1: And you know, you get there, you and you and

33
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: you meet a bunch of executives for the first time,

34
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: and you don't really know who they are, because nobody

35
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: really knows executs gives until you're on the network and

36
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,919
Speaker 1: somebody tells you, Okay, that's my boss and that's his boss, and.

37
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 2: Well, that reminds me of a wonderful story about you,

38
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: because we were we were so first we go to

39
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 2: the party and it's this amazing party and it's you know,

40
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 2: we were just wide on. We couldn't believe we were here.

41
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: I mean, I was waiting tables a few months ago

42
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 2: and and uh, here we are in New York at

43
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: this giant party and you have to you take pictures

44
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 2: with a lot of people and you know, you're getting

45
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: treated like a celebrity and you're not. No one even

46
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: knows who you are really yet, at least especially in

47
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: my case. And and then then we go to this

48
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: party and there were celebrities at the party. I remember

49
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: Kevin Nelan, who I was a huge fan of from

50
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: SNL as an example. He was I think literally might

51
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: have been one of the first celebrities I ever met,

52
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 2: was Kevin Neelan at this party. And I remember thinking, like,

53
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 2: oh my god, we're hanging out with with celebrities, like

54
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: we've made it.

55
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know. Sean Hayes was another person who was

56
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: a big champion, like he loved the show, and it

57
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: was really awesome to have the dude from Will and Grace,

58
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: who at this point was really famous on television.

59
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: That show is huge. And do you remember any other

60
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: stars that were at that party. I remember. I just

61
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 2: remember because I was such an SNL fan as a kid,

62
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: that I was so geeked out that that Kevin Neilan

63
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 2: was there. I think there may have been some other

64
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: older SNL faces, but.

65
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: It was it was all the a. It was like

66
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: a NBC rich at like any anyone who was on

67
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: NBC at that time was at at the party.

68
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: Now we proceeded, understandably to get quite intoxicated at this party.

69
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 2: I remember Bill Lauren saying, like, all right, guys, just

70
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 2: so you know, like don't like, you know, there's been

71
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 2: a lot of executives at this party, Like I understand

72
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 2: in New York your livee has just changed. But like,

73
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 2: don't get ship faced too.

74
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: All of us, all of us, all of us shitty.

75
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: Sarah Schalk's famous line, you guys ever heard of a Cosmopolitan?

76
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Sarah. Sarah stumbled up to us sideways

77
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: and she's like, have you guys ever heard of a Cosmopolitan?

78
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 2: They're great? And then I remember Cutie for some reason

79
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: at this bar, wasn't there like a trapeze, like a trapeze,

80
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 2: but what do you call that thing where you swing

81
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 2: on a trapeze?

82
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: You swing on a traff.

83
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 2: Feels way too dangerous, stupid, a real trapeze, But was there?

84
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: So it was something like that. It was a bar

85
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: in the middle, It was like a bar. I think

86
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: he was in the middle of the bar.

87
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 2: It was in the meat paggedstry I think it was

88
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 2: called park or something anyway, and she was.

89
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: On I remember her being on the bar and flipping

90
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 1: over and just showing everybody, you know, what she had

91
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: on underneath that dress she wore that day because she

92
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: was And I remember her husband at the time being like,

93
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: that's it, we're going home.

94
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 2: Time to go home, let's go. My favorite part of

95
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 2: the night is Donald was giving everyone noggies, and well,

96
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 2: all right, let's let's let me tell the story and

97
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: then you can clarify. Let me tell this.

98
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: Let's start from the beginning, though, Let's.

99
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: Start from the very beginning.

100
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: Okay, So Scott Sassa was the dude that I thought

101
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: was in charge of all of NBC at the time.

102
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 2: I think he was higher up than Jeff Zucker, who

103
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 2: we're going to talk about. Jeff Zucker was the I believe,

104
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 2: the president of NBC who's now actually now the president

105
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 2: of CNN, But at the time, he was a president

106
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: of NBC.

107
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: He had just come from whatever, the Today Show at

108
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: the time, and then he'd gone on to be the

109
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 1: head of NBC. And I didn't know this.

110
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 2: So Donald didn't know who he was. You're gonna ruin

111
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: my story. Donald didn't know who he was.

112
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: I thought he was Scott Sassin's assistant.

113
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 2: And Donald was going around giving everyone niggies, and I

114
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: look over and Donald has Jeff Zucker, the president of

115
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 2: the network, in a full headlock, and he's giving him

116
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: a drunken nuggie on his bald head. And I hear

117
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 2: Jeff Zucker, go, please Donald.

118
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: No, that's.

119
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 2: Okay for our entire friendship. Whenever Donald like tells me

120
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: a cringey story that makes me want to run away,

121
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 2: I just tell him about please Donald, Jeff Zucker.

122
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: You know, at this point, I'm giving everybody love because

123
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm so excited that we're on the network. It's going down,

124
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: and I look over and I see Jeff Zucker in

125
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: my mind, Scott Sass's assistant standing over by the bar,

126
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: you know, by himself, or he might even have been

127
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: with somebody. And I'm like, hey, you come over here

128
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: iggies to give out, and he's like he's like no, no, no, no, no, no,

129
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,359
Speaker 1: no no no. And I point at him again and

130
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: I'm like, and I get a little bit more you know,

131
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: agro about it, and I'm like, no, you get over

132
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: here right now, and he's like no, no, no, no,

133
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: no no, And so I march over to him, drunk

134
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: as can be.

135
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 2: I've seen you March when Donald marches his arms wing.

136
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: And I walk up to him and I grab him

137
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: and I put him in the headlock, and I'm like,

138
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: don't you ever tell me no? And I'm grabbing him

139
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,239
Speaker 1: and I'm giving Jeff Zucker and nuggie. And I remember

140
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 1: Bill Lawrence like a few days later being like, dude, Donald,

141
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: I just have to ask you if this actually happened,

142
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: But did you give Jeff Zucker a nuggie? I was like,

143
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 1: I gave so many people nuggies.

144
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 2: I gave so many nigogies. I can't recall who was

145
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 2: the RECEI.

146
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: And he was like, well, apparently you gave the head

147
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: of NBC a noogie and he's not really happy about it.

148
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 2: He wasn't genuinely pissed off, was he.

149
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: No, I don't think he was genuinely pissed off. But

150
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: he stayed away from me. Yeah, I remember a really

151
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: long time.

152
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 2: I remember he did come to visit the set at

153
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 2: the hospital, and he kind of stayed away from you

154
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 2: because he was afraid.

155
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: He was very very afraid of me.

156
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's very funny. Well what else do you?

157
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: So?

158
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: Then I remember that night ended where we were in.

159
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: I wasn't there. You were this was you and Nielan,

160
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: I wasn't there.

161
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 2: Oh really, almost everybody ended up back in Bill and

162
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: Christa's hotel room and we it's kind of it's sweet

163
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 2: slash embarrassing. We were so geeked out. We were like,

164
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: let's watch our pilot. So we were like, it was

165
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 2: like a whole bunch of people and Kevin Neelan, who

166
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 2: I was a fan of, and we just were watching

167
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 2: the show and I don't know, it's a sweet moment.

168
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,559
Speaker 2: I remember being like just thinking like I can't believe

169
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: this is happening. But then the funny thing is you

170
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 2: have a long time before you start shooting. So we

171
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 2: made the show, it got picked up. My mom freaked

172
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: out that I was like that I quit my waiting

173
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 2: tables job. She was like, but what it's so long,

174
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: what are you gonna do? And I was like, I, Mom,

175
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: I I can live off this pilot money for a

176
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 2: long I was living so frugally with no money that

177
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 2: I was like, I can live off this pilot money

178
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 2: for a long time, So I'm gonna write. And that's

179
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 2: in that time is when I really finally sat down

180
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 2: and put Garden State together, and at my dining room table,

181
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 2: it kind of looked was like, this is a sign

182
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 2: I need to I have this time that the universe

183
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 2: gave me and I don't need to wait tables, and

184
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna sit down and like put this script together.

185
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: That's awesome. Yeah, I went away. I think I did

186
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: a movie that year. I know I did. I did

187
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: something in between. But I remember also calling Danny Rose,

188
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: who was Bill's assistant at the time, every day like,

189
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: so when do we start, man, Like, you know, he

190
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: was like, and we're going to start, probably around June

191
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: or July. I was like, dude, come on, like like

192
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: it was.

193
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 2: Up to Danny. I love it. You're like, come on, man,

194
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 2: we gotta start.

195
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: We gotta we gotta start soon.

196
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: Man.

197
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: I had a baby mama at the time, and we

198
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: had two kids and one on the way, and it

199
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,719
Speaker 1: was like, I remember being like, I got to get

200
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: out of here, man, I got to do something.

201
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, you wanted to be working, you wanted to

202
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 2: be like doing it?

203
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: Well yeah, And also we had this show that was

204
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: picked up, but we weren't going to work from you know,

205
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: from May until July or you know, is.

206
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: That what it was? How many I remember? I couldn't

207
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 2: figure out. Was it like four months where we waited

208
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 2: and waited.

209
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: We went back to work, probably in the beginning of July,

210
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: like most shows do something like that.

211
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 2: I just remember being at like four months or something.

212
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 2: But anyway, it was so exciting to finally start. And

213
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 2: so this episode that we're going to talk about today

214
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: one or two by the way, just this just a

215
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 2: little bit of oddness. They label TV shows in the

216
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 2: hundreds so you can keep track of what's season on.

217
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 2: So a pilot would be one oh one, right, and

218
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 2: then episode twould be one O two, and then when

219
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 2: you start season two it's two oh one two oh two.

220
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 2: Is that way? You know? Anyway, just a little bit

221
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: of trivia for you. So this is one O two

222
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 2: we're gonna be talking about, and it's called my mentor.

223
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: Okay, so the show starts off, and I remember singing

224
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 1: this song for such a long time.

225
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, but uh it was Rola. It's called good Time

226
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: by Leroy. If you guys want to remind yourselves of

227
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 2: the song, and it was I really got it. You

228
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 2: can sing it ahead. I'm sure Lerola.

229
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: I got shot down in southern California. I remember being like,

230
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 1: that's a dope song, and that is this is you know.

231
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: For me, Scrubs was a brand new experience when it

232
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: came to music, because I didn't listen to music like this.

233
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: I listened to other types of music, and so this

234
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: was one of the first examples of me being of

235
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 1: me hearing this and being like wow, we and also

236
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: also seeing it for the first time too, and it

237
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: being like a music video. It was like, wow, we're

238
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: making music videos and also making a story about how

239
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: look in the beginning of the show, the hospital's in

240
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: sync because of this song that you're listening to in

241
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: your ear. We're on point, everybody is doing their job.

242
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: And I also noticed that we cut ahead a little

243
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: bit also, so you're no longer it's not the very

244
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: next day.

245
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 2: You're now it's a few days in and I've gotten.

246
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: But I just want to say, like I got. I

247
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 2: was watching this, and granted I haven't watched this in

248
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: twenty years. Most of these episodes I don't know about you,

249
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 2: but one of the things that's fun about doing this

250
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 2: podcast is with very few exceptions, maybe the musical episode

251
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 2: or or or ones I directed, I directed seven or

252
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 2: eight of them. I think I never I only saw

253
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 2: them once, so I haven't seen this in twenty years,

254
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 2: and it's so cool to look back. And Adam Bernstein

255
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 2: directed this episode. That was the same director who directed

256
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 2: our pilot, and I just remember thinking, like you just

257
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 2: said that, this was so exciting. We were like the

258
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 2: show was opening, like this was stuff I hadn't really

259
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 2: seen before in a show. It just showed the creativity

260
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 2: of Bill and Adam Eernstein and the fact that the

261
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 2: show is opening with this music video of how life

262
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 2: in the hospital when it's grooving is like a well

263
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 2: oiled machine. I just thought it was so clever.

264
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I took notice of that because I don't, you know,

265
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: watching this again, is it all seems a little brand

266
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: new to me, And I don't mean to We were

267
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: a part of the show and so it was just

268
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: an amazing moment for me. I'm gonna sound like, you know,

269
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: I'm cocky and arrogant, but you know, watching it, I

270
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: was like, Wow, this is a really really genius way

271
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: of showing how awesome or how InSync this hospital is.

272
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: For that, I was like, I love the show even

273
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: more now, you know, now that Now that it's twenty

274
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 1: years later, I'm like, Wow, we really were innovative, and

275
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: we really were different for primetime television. You know, regardless

276
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: of how many people watched the show at the time,

277
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: you know, it really still does hold up.

278
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to say, and you can be that's

279
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 2: not you being arrogant because we weren't the genius people

280
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 2: behind writing it, although we.

281
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, but we were a part of it. I know,

282
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 1: I know, But and you had a really big part

283
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: about it, you know, you did. You told the story.

284
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 2: I know, but I'm just saying like this, I think,

285
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 2: you know, as credit to Bill and all the writers,

286
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 2: this was just so original and different and exciting. By

287
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 2: the way, how funny is it that I have a Walkman.

288
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 2: It must be two thousand and one. I guess there

289
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 2: were still cassette walkmans. I would have thought it would

290
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 2: have been a disc but uh, I guess JD had

291
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 2: had a mix on a cassette.

292
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: Dude. You know, speaking of Walkman's, well, we we could

293
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: talk about it after season one, but I just remember

294
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: you walking the streets of New York City with your

295
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 1: yellow Walkman, listening to Michelle Branch.

296
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 2: Very to me when I closed my eyes it to you.

297
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 2: I see that was my jam. I am not a

298
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 2: hum about loving Michelle Branch.

299
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: I remember you walking out the house yellow. It was

300
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: a yellow walkman, the sony Walkman, the dope Sony Walkman's

301
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: that everybody if you had the yellow Sonny Walkman, you

302
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: had the dope.

303
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 3: You know.

304
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: Everything else was all right, but that was the one

305
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: right And I remember you being like, well, I'm out,

306
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: I'm going to a heard. That was when we were

307
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: both in New York, living together and you were doing

308
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: a journal.

309
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 2: That's a whole episode is Donald and I living together

310
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 2: in Manhattan. We rented a loft together. He was doing

311
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 2: a movie and I was doing Shakespeare in the Park

312
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 2: and I would go out and bop my head with

313
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 2: my yellow walkman cranking. You're everywhere to me and I

314
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 2: close my eyes.

315
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: It's you, Eyesy, I'm not alone, dude. I think it's

316
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: very much JD that you had a walkman with a

317
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: cassette tape in it.

318
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. I noticed that the first exterior shot is still

319
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 2: not our hospital. They at two minutes in they cut too,

320
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: which was an establishing shot from the pilot of me

321
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 2: coming to work for the first day. I think that's

322
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 2: the very that's the same shot, exact same shot that

323
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 2: used in the pilot of me showing up to work

324
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: for the first day.

325
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: Do you remember going to that hospital and us shooting

326
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: a bunch of entrances like me and you walking in,

327
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: you walking in by yourself, you and Sarah walking in.

328
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: Remember all of that. Yeah?

329
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, but that was that was for the pilot, right.

330
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: No, that was for the show itself. We did a

331
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: bunch of We did a bunch of versions of us

332
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: walking into this hospital, and some of it never got used.

333
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 2: But at a certain point they just stopped using this

334
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 2: exterior because it was not our exterior at all. I

335
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 2: don't know where the where the hell that was.

336
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: I noticed that this episode has a lot to do

337
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: with relationships, you know what I mean, and how we

338
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: all started off kind of on rocky ground. You and

339
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: I had the same relationship, and you and the janitor

340
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: have the same relationship all the way through, but everyone else,

341
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: no matter how it's connected, has a different relationship. In

342
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 1: this episode. At this point, you don't mind being in

343
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: the friend zone with Elliott, and as a matter of fact,

344
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: he thinks it's kind of cool that, you know, he

345
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 1: has a colleague from work that wants to hang out

346
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: with him, and Turk Turk and Caller on together yet

347
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, they're just starting their courtship,

348
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: you and doctor Cox, even though he's still giving you

349
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: advice and stuff like that. I also noticed that this

350
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: is the first time he calls you a woman's name.

351
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 2: Find the show too where he catches men's smoking.

352
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, he calls you Susan. But this is you know,

353
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: you guys weren't in sync yet, so you don't really

354
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: know this guy and you're trying to get to know him,

355
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: or JD's trying to get to know him, but they

356
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: don't really know each other that well yet. And I'm

357
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: jumping ahead, But that stuff in his apartment is phenomenal.

358
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: Going back and looking at it, I was like I

359
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: had no idea one that it was this funny, and

360
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: two that it was this important, you know what I mean,

361
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: Like I had no clue watching it back then. It

362
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: kind of seems like a blur. And you know, to

363
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: be honest with you, most of this episode, I don't remember.

364
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's things, there's things I don't remember. I don't

365
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 2: remember my It's funny, I don't remember my head exploding.

366
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 2: I mean, really no, I don't. I mean I remember,

367
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 2: I don't remember doing that gag. A lot of the

368
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 2: stunts and stuff I remember, I remember falling over when

369
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 2: he closes the door on my on my leg and stuff.

370
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 2: But the head exploding, I don't remember shooting that. But

371
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 2: I want to just pick up what you said. I agree.

372
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 2: A lot of it is about establishing these relationships that

373
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 2: were going to follow ultimately for nine seasons. And also

374
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 2: Judy really comes through in this episode. Judy Ray says, amazing,

375
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 2: she does some awesome work, and it's establishing a really

376
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 2: important theme that I think comes across throughout the whole

377
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 2: series is that we young doctors are learning the importance

378
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 2: of nurses because we come out of medical school and

379
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 2: we're super cocky and we think we're going to be badasses.

380
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 2: But we learn right off the bat, you know, not

381
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 2: to be cheesy and say the theme song. But we

382
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 2: can't do this all on our own. We need the

383
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 2: help of the nurses. And every doctor we ever talked

384
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: to in doing research would say, yeah, I mean the

385
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 2: nurses run the show. You know, if you're a Laman

386
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 2: and you don't know you have no idea how much

387
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 2: work and pressure and stress the nurses are all constantly under.

388
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: And I was thinking about that now, especially with the

389
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: Corona crisis going on and watching all the news, and

390
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 2: I was really, I don't know, extra moved by it

391
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 2: in this episode, seeing like that those nurses are just

392
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 2: working their asses off, and Sarah's character in particular needs

393
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: to learn that, like, no, no, we're a team and

394
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 2: you need to like check your arrogance at the door,

395
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 2: and this is really about like we're gonna do this

396
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 2: together and you need the nurses to be on your side.

397
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely with that. I agree with you one hundred percent.

398
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: It's true. Nurses are the heart and soul of the hospital.

399
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: Just to piggyback on what you said about Sarah, though,

400
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: a perfect example of someone who's not sincere about their

401
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 1: apology is when they apologize to you and then it's

402
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,159
Speaker 1: followed with but just to be clear, you know what

403
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: I mean. And she totally does that in this episode,

404
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: and everything that happens to her after this is because

405
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 1: of how she just consistently put her foot in her

406
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: mouth throughout this episode. Now, I wonder, if I don't remember,

407
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: if it carries on through this season, but through the

408
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: career of the show. Through the show, her character always

409
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: had the worst luck.

410
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, well again, that comes from her life too. I mean,

411
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 2: Sarah is a klutzy gal. She'll be the first to

412
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 2: admit when she comes on our show. And Sarah come

413
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 2: in from the weekend every single time, without fail, every

414
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 2: single Monday morning, and you're like, you, guys, are not

415
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 2: gonna believe what happened to me this weekend? And she

416
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: would go on to tell the craziest story that you

417
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 2: would be like a once in a in a two

418
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 2: year period to a normal person, something like this would

419
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 2: happen to you, and it would happen to Sarah every weekend,

420
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 2: and we'd be we'd be like, Sarah, you're you're putting

421
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 2: us on it. Can't that can't have happened to you

422
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 2: this weekend, and you're not gonna believe it. And then

423
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 2: on top of that, and then my keys fell, and

424
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 2: then my wedding ring got lost, and.

425
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: I remember one story was like a car lost control

426
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 1: and started barreling down a hill and her fiance at the.

427
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 2: Time had to drop in the car.

428
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: Or grabbed a kid out of the way, or something

429
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: like that.

430
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,680
Speaker 2: I remember, and when there was then her wedding ring

431
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 2: fell down a gutter, and every every weekend it was

432
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 2: like it was like here we go, and Sarah would

433
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 2: have a half hour story like you guys, and she

434
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 2: was always breathless. She was like, you're not gonna believe

435
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 2: what donald. At two fifty four, one of the most

436
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 2: important characters in Scrubs history is introduced a character very

437
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 2: near and dear to our hearts named Rowdy.

438
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, I made that note. Also, Holy cow, Rowdy

439
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 1: that joke. When we were filming it, I was like,

440
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: this is the oddest thing I've ever done in my life.

441
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: This is a stuffed dog, right, and we're gonna pretend

442
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: like it's our pet.

443
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 2: I think Bill will have to ask him. Let's make

444
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 2: a note to ask him when he comes on. But

445
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 2: I think that the idea was that some doctor had

446
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 2: told him that they never had time to have a pet,

447
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 2: especially when they were just starting out, because their hours

448
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 2: were so insane, and so he thought it would be

449
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 2: funny if if we got a taxiderman pet.

450
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,239
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the oddest thing I've ever heard of

451
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: in my life.

452
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 2: I know, just I mean, where did they find that thing?

453
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: Exactly who in that right mind was like, you know what,

454
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: I'm misbuster.

455
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 2: No, I think people do him. I do think it's

456
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,880
Speaker 2: a thing. I mean, I really think. I'm sure out

457
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 2: there are fans with you're listening, you can write in

458
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 2: and tell us. But I do think there are people

459
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 2: that taxidermy their pet.

460
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't understand, Joelle, have.

461
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 2: You ever heard of this? Joelle's nodding, she has heard

462
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 2: of this.

463
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 1: Barbara streisand Barbara streisand I believe his taxidermied and cloned

464
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 1: her dogs. She clones her dog because she's sorry so much.

465
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: I think she's on like volume five. We have the

466
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: technology to clone animals.

467
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can clone your dog. You didn't know that.

468
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: I did not know that.

469
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can clone your dog. It all started with

470
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 2: Dolly the sheep. Remember they cloned the sheep Dolly.

471
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: I thought that was like only a couple of years ago.

472
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 2: And that was many years ago, and then since since now,

473
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 2: if you're Barbara streisand I'm sure it's very expensive, you

474
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 2: can clone your dog. So rowdy was taxidermy? Now? I

475
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 2: tried to get rowdy when the show was over, and

476
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: I listen, we did nine years I said to Bill,

477
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 2: the only thing I want from everything is Rowdy. I

478
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 2: think it would be a wonderful souvenir for me to have.

479
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 2: And he said sure. And then the people at Disney

480
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 2: who owned the show said, no, you can't have Rowdy.

481
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 2: He belongs to Disney. And I pictured, like you remember

482
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 2: at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark, how

483
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 2: they put the arc of the Covenant way in the back.

484
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,959
Speaker 2: I pictured Rowdy going into like an endless infinite uh

485
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 2: of you knowrehouse warehouse in the back, and like the

486
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 2: forklift is going by like other taxidermy dogs, and he's

487
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 2: going like way, way way.

488
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: In the back, right the dog from Frasier's tax exactly exactly.

489
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 2: And I was just so bumped. So when I made

490
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 2: my film, wish I was here that you were in,

491
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 2: very very funnily as the Ashton Martin Dealer, I said

492
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 2: to Disney, Hey, for the scrubs fans, I thought it'd

493
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,160
Speaker 2: be funny if I put Rowdy like in the back

494
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 2: of a scene, like an Easter egg for them to find.

495
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 2: And I said, cand I borrow the dog, just to put,

496
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 2: you know, just a little Easter egg for everybody. They said,

497
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 2: we will, but we're gonna send him with a bodyguard. Wow,

498
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 2: because we're worried that you're gonna try and steal him

499
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 2: once he's delivered. So they sent Row with a handler.

500
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 2: They sent the taxi dermy dog with a handler.

501
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: I feel like that's understandable though, because I feel like

502
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: if they didn't send the dog with the handler somewhere

503
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: along the way, the dog would have got lost.

504
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 2: I wasn't gonna steal the dog. I was gonna build

505
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 2: my best behavior. Listen, he didn't look good though he

506
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 2: looked he looked, he did not look as good as

507
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 2: he looked thin. I remember. I know it makes no sense,

508
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 2: but I remember when he showed up on set with

509
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 2: his bodyguard, thinking like, he doesn't look good. He's not

510
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 2: being taken care of.

511
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: He'd not be taken care of it all.

512
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 2: Like one of his paws was all janky, and like

513
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 2: I had to like blew it.

514
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,479
Speaker 1: Do you remember the prop master who hid Rowdy.

515
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is Scrubs urban legend or not,

516
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 2: but go ahead, you tell it.

517
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: Well. I just know that we had a prop master

518
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 1: who didn't work out.

519
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 2: Yes he was he was let go right and to.

520
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 1: Get back at production he decided that he was going

521
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: to hide Rowdy in the ceiling. Is that where you

522
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 1: hit it?

523
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 2: Well, as the Scrubs urban legend goes, he was let

524
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 2: go and he was angry about being let go. And

525
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 2: then you know, we were in the hospital that had

526
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 2: all those you know, lower tiled ceilings that you see

527
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 2: in hospitals, and apparently he he hid Rowdy up in

528
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 2: the ceiling tiles above the proper. Oh that's when, by

529
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 2: the way, that's when everyone started to be like, oh shit,

530
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,719
Speaker 2: if we lose Rowdy, this is bad. We need a backup.

531
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 2: And that's when they got Stephen.

532
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: Right, but they had like three or four different rowdies though, so.

533
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 2: There were just two. There was Rowdy and Stephen. Do

534
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 2: you remember, because there was a whole episode where where Judy.

535
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 1: Which where uh uh?

536
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 2: And then I feel their balls and then I feel

537
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 2: their balls and I'm like, nope, that's Steven. So in

538
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 2: the world of Scrubs, JD had memorized the two different

539
00:24:54,760 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 2: dog taxidermy dog's ball sacks up, that's Steven. So let's

540
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 2: talk about our apartment set, because this is the first

541
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 2: time you're seeing our apartment. This was built into the hospital.

542
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 2: You know, Normally you'd have a set like this on

543
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 2: a sound stage. But in order for us to do

544
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 2: the whole show at this abandoned hospital, Cabint McMullin, our

545
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,919
Speaker 2: genius production designer, found a way to build all of

546
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 2: this into I don't know what it was. It was

547
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 2: like the urgent care wing or something.

548
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: No, if this wasn't in the urgent care wing, this

549
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: was actually in the basement of the hospital. Urgent care

550
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: turned out to be the bar, the bar and all

551
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 1: of that stuff, right, but this was this was actually

552
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,479
Speaker 1: right by the children's ward in the hospital. So if

553
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: you went, they.

554
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 2: Knocked out some walls and so this was. This was

555
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 2: in you know, this looks like prett damn good apartment,

556
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 2: but it was in the hospital.

557
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. It was also the loading area also, so when

558
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: they would cut and at night when they wanted to

559
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 1: bring things into the hospital. On the other side of

560
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: the wall, there was this big garage door that you

561
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 1: could open up and load all the equipment. I remember.

562
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 2: It was always incredibly hot, right, there was no, it

563
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,159
Speaker 2: wasn't it wasn't meant to be a sound stage with

564
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 2: lights and everything.

565
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: The whole hospital was on fire because you know, you

566
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 1: couldn't run air condition when we're running like we used

567
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: to have the tubes. Remember, we would have the tube.

568
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 2: God, they'd have a tube wrangler.

569
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: Even in our dressing rooms. They gave us like halfway

570
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: through season one, they gave us our own little air

571
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: conditioning units to keep us cool because the hospital got

572
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 1: so hot in the summer.

573
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 2: Right, but I remember, so there was an air conditioning

574
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 2: in the hospital, and so they had these exterior units

575
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 2: and they had these tubes. I'm sure you've seen them.

576
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 2: They were like, I don't know, two feet in diameter.

577
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 2: They'd be running everywhere to try and make it comfortable,

578
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 2: but they were. It was someone's full time job to

579
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 2: try and wrangle the tubes.

580
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. So what I noticed about this episode I kept

581
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: waiting for one line that made it into the promo

582
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 1: for the first episode but wasn't in the first episode.

583
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: And that's when Elliott says to me, Hey, when did

584
00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: you meet Morgan Freeman.

585
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 2: I laughed out loud when that line came up. I mean,

586
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 2: I knew it was coming, and you know, there's some

587
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 2: jokes in this that, even though you know them, I

588
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 2: just laughed out loud when I heard that. It's just

589
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 2: that was so frigging funny.

590
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I laughed my ass off, and you know it's

591
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: really my mom. But that's not even the funny part.

592
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: The funny part is she goes she has lovely freckles.

593
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:27,439
Speaker 2: I love hers. I love her freckles. Okay, So the

594
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 2: next thing I wrote down was Todd the introduction of

595
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 2: Rob Mashchio and Rob kind of is this guy, right?

596
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 2: I mean he not that he was like I mean,

597
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 2: not that he was a womanizer like this, but he

598
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 2: was kind of like a funny, funny jockey kind of guy, right.

599
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 1: Absolutely, he was very well. He was a pretty good athlete,

600
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,360
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He took really good care

601
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: of his body and stuff like that.

602
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 2: I remember he told me he ate a pine of

603
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 2: Ben and Jerry's every day, which I always found amazing

604
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 2: because he would have to work out like that much

605
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 2: extra to work off of pine of Ben Jerry's a day.

606
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 2: So he must have worked out a time to have

607
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 2: his Todd body.

608
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 1: And he was a lot older than us at the

609
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 1: time too.

610
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 2: I think he's seventy five in this episode. No, he

611
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 2: does look good. I I remember he wasn't like like

612
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 2: that old, but I remember he was older than us.

613
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: He was a lot old. He was like in his

614
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say thirty something, We were twenty something, and

615
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: he was like thirty five, thirty six.

616
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 2: Rob's gonna come on the podcast.

617
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 1: And I really enjoyed the fact that, you know, you

618
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,479
Speaker 1: do projects and sometimes they don't really put the effort

619
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: into develop you know, these romantic relationships with the characters.

620
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: And I really enjoyed the effort put into Carla and

621
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: Turk's courtship and how you know what I mean, and

622
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: how it became a storyline in the show. And it

623
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: wasn't just something that from the beginning they had chemistry

624
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: and now they're dating. You know, Turk had to work

625
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 1: for it, Carla had to work for it. And then

626
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: and the ultimate thing was at the end they you know,

627
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: they're they're married with kids and stuff like that. I

628
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: love that we see their growth from the pilot to

629
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: this episode and then as the show goes along.

630
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 2: You guys were such a good ying yang for each

631
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 2: other too. I mean, you're, you know, the sort of

632
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 2: silly jockey surgeon and she's just like so smart and

633
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 2: clever and and kind of running the entire hospital. And

634
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 2: I just thought the way that they wrote your flirtation

635
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 2: and your and your chemistry was really and you guys

636
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 2: performed it really, really well. Can I tell them the

637
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 2: story about what Casey first said when I tried to

638
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 2: set you up?

639
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: Absolutely.

640
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 2: We were in the We were in a nightclub, Donald

641
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 2: and I and I see Casey Cobb, the beautiful Casey Cob,

642
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 2: across the club, and she was with Jessica Simpson.

643
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: Because she was she is her assistant.

644
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 2: She was her assistant and now they're like best friends.

645
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: And I knew them just as acquaintances. And Donald had

646
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 2: such a crush on Casey. He was just staring at her,

647
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 2: like just like go I'd like, I couldn't, couldn't even

00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 2: in my backyard.

660
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, at the time, I didn't have nine kids. I

661
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: only had four.

662
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 2: I had had four. But it was a funny, sassy

663
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 2: line from her. Yeah, and your charms obviously worked because however,

664
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: many years later they were married in my backyard.

665
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks to you being a great wingman.

666
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 2: It all started with a wingman line.

667
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: I remember me being like, yeah, will you go over

668

00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 2: the courage.

673
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: I got the No, you did get the courage. But

674
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: you went over there, and then you came back and

675
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, what did she say? Did I tell

676
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: you or you told me right No? No, no, you

677
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: told me right away. You're like, dude, She was like,

678
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: doesn't he have like nine kids? And I remember being like,

679
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: oh no, because I was like, that's what the ladies

680
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: in California think, that's what Hollywood thinks about me. I'm

681
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: a dude with all the kids.

682
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: Well, it's funny that it's funny that like, she wasn't like,

683
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 2: oh no he's not cute, or oh no, he's not funny,

684
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 2: or oh no, I don't think he's funny on TV

685
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 2: and movies. She was just like, doesn't he have like

686
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: nine keys? With herself accent? Anyway, this should be an

687
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 2: inspiration to you men and women out there who think

688
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 2: you can't possibly get that person you have a crush on,

689
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 2: and they might even open with a line equivalent to

690
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 2: doesn't he have like nine kids? But if you just

691
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: are persistent like Donald was, you could one day get

692
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 2: married in my backyard.

693
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 1: All right?

694
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 2: Should we move on?

695
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 4: Oh?

696
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 2: We talk about Rob running line because I always thought

697
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 2: that was funny. So Rob as a testament to Rob Mashio,

698
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 2: who played Todd. He would take it so seriously. And

699
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: I'm not making fun of Rob, because I get it.

700
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 2: He didn't have a lot to do in every episode,

701
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 2: and he would always make sure he was doing the

702
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 2: best he could. But sometimes we'd look over and he

703
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 2: would just be running his one line over and over

704
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 2: and over.

705
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: Air five yeah, air five.

706
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. We just see him a five Like I'd be

707
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 2: like dying five. Rob's over there running line air.

708
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 1: Five yeah, A five?

709
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 2: High five Air five, Air five. They really did hurt,

710
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 2: those those friggin' rob high fives.

711
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: For what it's worth, I was about to say it

712
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 1: seemed like you got used to it after a while.

713
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 2: No, they really hurt, and the whoppersh noise was added,

714
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 2: but man, they really hurt. Sarah digging the grave at

715
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 2: around eight minutes and forty six seconds, that's become like

716
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 2: a popular meme. I always see, like, you know, when

717
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 2: fans send us gifts and memes and I see him

718
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 2: on the internet, on the interwebs. That's what I always see,

719
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 2: is it's funny watching it when you go, oh, that's

720
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: that meme I've seen before. But that Sara digging is

721
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 2: one people use when like they're putting their foot in

722
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 2: their mouth, dig in the grave.

723
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: I forgot. I totally forgot about that, and so when

724
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 1: I saw it, it was really refreshing and really funny. Huh yeah,

725
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: it was very funny. And then they throw dirt on

726
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: her too, at her rose. That's a great joke.

727
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 2: The next thing I wrote down was, oh, the would

728
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 2: you like to play a game thing with the robot voice?

729
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 2: Do you remember what movie that's from?

730
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: Of course War Games?

731
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 2: Yes, one of my favorite movies.

732
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: And then the other one was from Buck Rogers B

733
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: to B to BD BD. Hey Buck b that's Buck Rogers.

734
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 2: But war Games? Would you how about a thermone nuclear war?

735
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 2: Remember that?

736
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: How about? And yeah, it was Matthew Broderick and Ali Sheety.

737
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 2: Of course, I remember that they're listening to this podcast

738
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 2: and you haven't seen War Games. I need you to

739
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 2: put it on after this podcast is over because it

740
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 2: is such a good movie.

741
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you don't have to put it on

742
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 1: after the podcast, I.

743
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 2: Think, yeah, well not during, right. I remember being a

744
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 2: kid and thinking, well, everything Matthew Broderick did when I

745
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 2: was a kid, I just thought was incredible. I just

746
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 2: wanted to be Matthew Broderick.

747
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 1: Especially in war games. In war games and in Ferris

748
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 1: Bueller's Day.

749
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 2: Oh yes, of course. I mean he's kind of the

750
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: same character.

751
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: Well kind of s and war games he was like

752
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: a kid that didn't have a lot of friends, and

753
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: Ferris Bueller he was the king of He's such.

754
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 2: A good actor. Though. In Wargames, you know, by the way,

755
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 2: a little trivia, they made a sequel to Wargames that

756
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 2: the writer director had nothing to do with what was

757
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 2: it called. I don't know. Joelle will insert that here

758
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 2: later in her voice.

759
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,839
Speaker 4: War Games the Dead Code, which came out in two

760
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 4: thousand and eight, attrected by Stuart Gillard.

761
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, but neither the two stars Ali Sheety or Matthew

762
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 2: Broddock were in it, right right? That one's not the

763
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 2: sequel is not Zach and Donald approved. But the first

764
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 2: movie is. Oh, I just the eleven thirty three. I

765
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 2: just wanted to point out that's the very first time

766
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: we saw the lounge, our Doctor's lounge where so many

767
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 2: much of the show ends up taking place, and the

768
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 2: introduction of Doug. I didn't realize Doug got introduced so early.

769
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,800
Speaker 1: Neither did I. I didn't realize that either. I also

770
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 1: remember that pac Man machine and how when we were

771
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: working that was an actual, real working pac Man game

772
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: and I would get kicked off a set. I remember

773
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: Franklin Got Better and Scott Harris kicking me up. These

774
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 1: were the first ads on.

775
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 2: Scrub Assistant Directors.

776
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember them kicking me off set because I

777
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: kept trying to get the high score on pac Man.

778
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: I remember that pac Man game, and I remember when

779
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: they finally made a sort of pac man game didn't work,

780
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: and I was so pissed off.

781
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 2: At a certain point, they made it so it wouldn't

782
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 2: function even if you plugged it in. They got wise.

783
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: I loved that. I thought that was the coolest set

784
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: piece ever.

785
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 2: And I was happy to see Doug because he's very funny.

786
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,919
Speaker 2: And I remember in the Wizard of ob episode which

787
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 2: I directed, one of the funniest lines he ever said,

788
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,720
Speaker 2: which was, dead people should be dead. Do you remember

789
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 2: when I come back to life?

790
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 1: I do remember.

791
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 2: Why are you hitting me? I thought you were dead?

792
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 2: Why are you hitting me? Because dead people should be dead?

793
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:44,760
Speaker 1: I would have done the same.

794
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 2: Thing, Okay, I thought at thirteen fifty, there's a cool

795
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 2: moment where, just stylistically, Adam Bernstein and again just sort

796
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 2: of setting up the style of the show where everyone's

797
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 2: looking into the lens talking to me, and then it

798
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 2: cuts to Judy and she does it, and then she

799
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 2: looks down and the camera pulls back and I'm next

800
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 2: to her.

801
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: I just think she looks at you.

802
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 2: I stylistically, that was really kind of a cool thing.

803
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 1: That was pretty cool.

804
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 2: Adam sort of set the bar early on as the

805
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 2: director of episode one and two that the camera was

806
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 2: going to be a character in the show, and every

807
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 2: director that came on after would add their own little

808
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,240
Speaker 2: bit of style to it, especially in this first season,

809
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 2: you know, figuring out innovative ways to move the camera

810
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 2: and to do colored camera shots and trick shots.

811
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: Adam really he did us a great service, him and

812
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 1: Bill by giving us something. In hospital shows, it's really

813
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 1: about the doctors and the nurses and everything like that.

814
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: Adam and Bill found a way to make the hospital

815
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: a character in the show. And they found a way

816
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 1: to do that early on, you know what I mean.

817
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 1: So when you're there, it's never the same. It doesn't

818
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, I'm watching a hospital procedural or

819
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: I'm watching It's something wacky about it. There's something different

820
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: about it, and I think that really helped with telling

821
00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 1: the story, you know, of JD and his group of

822
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: friends in this hospital.

823
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Adam. I think Adam really set the tone

824
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 2: for that, and I remember him and of course the

825
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,320
Speaker 2: next few that come up, you know, all all the

826
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,399
Speaker 2: directors in this in this first batch. I think Mark

827
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 2: Bucklan's another one coming up that really helped set the

828
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 2: style in the look. Some things were phased out as

829
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 2: it said, the whip noises like yeah, when you go

830
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 2: when you're moving your hands. Yeah, So there was a

831
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,279
Speaker 2: lot of sound effects obviously, but that whip thing is

832
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,800
Speaker 2: like one thing they toned down. This high school fantasy

833
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 2: that starts at fifteen minutes or so is so funny,

834
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 2: so well done, don't you think hilarious?

835
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 1: Dude? The fact that they put the pimples on her

836
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: and the braces and turn band stuff and then all

837
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 1: of us being like the cool kids and stuff like that. Yeah,

838
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,800
Speaker 1: you know, Aloma is I guess really the only nurse

839
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: from the pilot that made it all the way through,

840
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,920
Speaker 1: because there's people that surrounded Judy where I'm like, I

841
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 1: don't recognize any of these people.

842
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,479
Speaker 2: I recognize a few. I recognize a couple of the women.

843
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 2: By the way, none of the people who became like

844
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 2: major background on people that we focused on are in

845
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 2: any of these episodes. It'd be interesting when as we

846
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 2: go to watch, it'll be in triest to see when

847
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 2: we see their first appearances.

848
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,720
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, I saw one dude who was this bald

849
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: guy and he kind of looks like Colonel doctor but

850
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 1: he's a bald headed guy and he shows up in

851
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: so many scenes like back to back to back to

852
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: back to back.

853
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's talk about how and Cox's apartment.

854
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 1: That looks like a set, dude, No, it's so bad.

855
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: First of all, looked like a set, dude.

856
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 2: Not to dis cabot because I'm sure that at this

857
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 2: time they were already out of money. But this is

858
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 2: the only set so far that looks like they just

859
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 2: put a couch into a hospital. Like there's so many

860
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 2: things on the walls that are like, why is there

861
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 2: a speaker on the side of his wall at his house?

862
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 1: Not only that, why is that big window there that

863
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: goes nowhere?

864
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 2: I know, it's so funny, and then we justify it

865
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 2: by making a joke about like, oh, your apartment is

866
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 2: so cold. But I was like, wow, man, they I

867
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 2: think this is This was the first moment like where

868
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 2: does he? Where does he live? But he live in

869
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 2: the hospital.

870
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 1: Crazy.

871
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 2: I love this scene between me and Johnny and this

872
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 2: is one of the one of his lines of scrubs.

873
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 2: I remember, do you want to be the big spoon

874
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:03,320
Speaker 2: of the little spoon?

875
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 1: I had no idea what spooning was. I knew that

876
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: you could spoon, like I know what spooning was. But

877
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 1: I didn't know that you could be there was a

878
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 1: big spoon and a little spoon. I had no idea

879
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: that that existed, and that kind of was like, oo

880
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: little spoon. That whole scene is hilarious, you know what

881
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 1: I mean, even though when he kicks you out and

882
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 1: he gives you the lesson and he's like, now come here,

883
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: let me give you a hug, and you're like, get

884
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,360
Speaker 1: the fuck out of here. He's like, come on, come on,

885
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 1: come on, give me a hug, and you're like me

886
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 1: and he's like, come on, give me a hug, and

887
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: you go for the hugg. It's like get out of here.

888
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, very funny. He's so good and really just so good.

889
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 2: I really just liked that scene between the two of us.

890
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 2: It really kind of showed the dance with Johnny see

891
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 2: where it was going to be like, you know, fucking

892
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,319
Speaker 2: with me a ton and really but then eventually there'd

893
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 2: always be a lesson underneath it, and he'd always drop

894
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 2: in and be a good mentor. I mean, that's when

895
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 2: this is called my mentor. So he's doesn't want me

896
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 2: to a mentor, doesn't mean a mentor, And in the

897
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 2: end he finally drops some knowledge, like you can't save

898
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 2: these people. All you can do is do your You're

899
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 2: not responsible for changing people's habits. You can't make someone

900
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 2: who's gonna smoke not smoke. And I know that this

901
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 2: is something and that doctors must deal with all the time.

902
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 2: They wish they could make their patients stop eating that

903
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 2: fast food, they wish they could make their patients stop smoking,

904
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 2: whatever it is. Johnny's trying to teach JD early on,

905
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 2: like you don't have control over over that. You can

906
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 2: only do what you can do.

907
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: I had made a note on that. Also, when doctors

908
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: come into the hospital for the first few months, maybe

909
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 1: even more than that, they take everything so personal. And

910
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: that's great to have that type of attitude, but if

911
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: you continue that type of attitude, it's going to be

912
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: really hard for you to make it as a doctor,

913
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And that's what JD had

914
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: to experience, you know what I mean. JD cared so

915
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: much about Will and you know, and Will quitting his

916
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 1: cigarette addiction, and he thought that that was a bonding

917
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 1: experience between him and doctor Cox. You know, dude, I

918
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: know you're thinking about it, and let's talk it over

919
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: so we can come back in tomorrow with a game

920
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,839
Speaker 1: plan and stop this dude from smoking cigarettes. And at

921
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,879
Speaker 1: the end of the day, that wasn't your job. Your

922
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 1: job is to test and treat, you know what I mean.

923
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,879
Speaker 1: That was JD's job. Let's test him and see what

924
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: ailments he has, and any ailment we find, we're gonna

925
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: treat and try and save him from all of this

926
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 1: extracurricular activity of you giving a crap about you know,

927
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 1: how he got here. That's not in the cards because

928
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, if this person does

929
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,439
Speaker 1: pass away, how do you develop the strength to get

930
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:48,879

952
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 1: that I'm that I shot all last year, Emergence, which

953
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: is on ABC, which is another Disney show. The creators

954
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,959
Speaker 1: of that show wrote on ED back in the day

955
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:57,800
Speaker 1: with a young Mike Schwartz.

956
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 2: Oh really, that's that must be where Bill Off found him. Maybe,

957
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:02,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, ED came first because I remember when the

958
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 2: show ED was on and Tom Cavanaugh's picture went up

959
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 2: on billboards and I still didn't have a job. My

960
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 2: mom would call me and be like, there is a

961
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 2: show where this guy looks exactly like you and and

962
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:21,240
Speaker 2: he's on billboards everywhere. And I remember thinking like, great, yeah,

963
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 2: that's not me, mom.

964
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 1: It's kind of it's kind of crazy how he came

965
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 1: on to be a brother later on. I know, I

966
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: wish they I wish they would have had I wish

967

968
00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:34,520

969
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 2: I know, I get this thing. I don't know what

970
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,520
Speaker 2: it is about my face, but people tell me I

971
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 2: look like so many different people. Obviously Dak Shepherd's the

972
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 2: most common these days, but I used to get Tom

973
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,720
Speaker 2: Cavanaugh and Ray Romano.

974
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,280
Speaker 1: Yeah I remember Ray Romano.

975
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I Finally early on when our show launched,

976
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 2: everyone was saying that I was like young Ray Romano.

977
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 2: And I remember I met Ray Romano like on a

978
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 2: press line somewhere, and he looked at me and he

979
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 2: was like, oh, it's like looking in a mirror. I

980
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 2: couldn't remember if he was finding the comparison. The funny.

Speaker 1: you know who that was, right? Do you remember the story.

985
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, I remember the story but I forgot the punchline,

986
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 2: so you're gonna have to tell it.

987
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: So we're in Vegas and we're hanging out. It's us,

988
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 1: Josh Rayden, our buddy, Carrie Brothers, and Michael Weston, who

989
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,080

992
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 1: the show, if I remember correctly, right, yes, right, So

993
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,799
Speaker 1: we're all in Vegas. We go to Vegas. It's our

994
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 1: first time going to Vegas to as a group, and

995
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: we're you know, we're very young, and we've we've got

996
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: a little bit of money at this point to spend

997
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,479
Speaker 1: in Vegas. We had a really good time. We stayed

998
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 1: at the MGM Grand they hooked it up for us.

999
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,319

00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,279
Speaker 2: the bathroom. Donald in the bathroom and Donald washed his

1001
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 2: hands and then he left and the person that was

1002
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 2: in there said to his friend, you know who that was?

1003
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 2: And in my mind I'm thinking, like, oh, Donald getting recognized,

1004
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:21,960
Speaker 2: And the guy goes who and he goes, that was Erkele.

Speaker 2: That was fucking Erkle, dude, And they were like freaking

1006
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 2: out that Erkele had been in the bathroom with him.

1007
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,719
Speaker 1: I love that. What about looking to this day? I,

1008
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,880

Speaker 1: these people who were like, you know, iconic for being

1011
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 1: really good at playing a character. You know, Julia went

1012
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: on to do Stepan Erkele, which was really freaking awesome

1013
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,280
Speaker 1: and it showed his range as an actor and everything

1014
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 1: like that, anytime I could be mentioned in the same story,

1015
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 1: like one time quest Love hit me up, it was like, Yo,

Speaker 1: best day ever, dude.

1018
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,319
Speaker 2: I remember when we first became friends and we'd go

1019
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 2: out and about no one knew who I was at all,

1020
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,320
Speaker 2: but some people would would know Donald's name. But a

1021
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 2: lot of people would just be like, yo, yo clueless, clueless.

1022
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 2: They would just yell clueless at you right all the time.

1023
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 1: YO clueless, clueless, Yo clueless, And then they'd point to

1025

00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 2: clueless his friend.

1028
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 1: That story has a horrible ending, though, man, it's a

1029
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 1: horrible well. The ending is you know, you did Garden

1030
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,839
Speaker 1: State and all of a sudden you became Zach Braff

1031

1034
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: That is what happened.

1035
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,359
Speaker 2: That's funny. I just remember, you know, it's funny the

1036
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 2: thing the things that people yell at you on the street,

1037
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 2: like you don't get clueless anymore, I'm sure, but I know.

1038
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 1: But I get a lot of black scrub thanks the

1039
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 1: family guy. I get a lot of black scrubs and

1040
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: get scrubs and.

1041
00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 2: You know, yeah, I got I get where's all the time. Yeah,

1042
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 2: Sometimes people will know my name and they just talk

1043
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 2: to me right away, and I can't figure out if

1044
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 2: I know them in real life or they just know

1045
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,840
Speaker 2: me as an actor. And especially when I'm in New

1046
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 2: York because I lived there part of the year, and

1047
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 2: people just walking down the street just start talking to you.

1048
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 2: And you don't want to be I don't want to

1049
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 2: be rude at all, but I'm trying to think, like,

1050
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 2: do I know this person or do they just know

1051
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 2: my name. One time I was parallel parking in Manhattan

1052
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,879
Speaker 2: and it was going horribly and some guy walks by.

1053
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 2: He's like, you're killing it, BRAF, and I just couldn't remember. Like,

1054
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:35,839
Speaker 2: I just was like, do I know that? I don't

1055
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 2: think I know that person. They just give me shit.

1056
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: That happened to me recently at Starbucks before this whole

1057
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 1: quarantine thing happened. I was at Starbucks and a guy

1058
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: comes up to me and goes, Donald, how you been man.

1059
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,279
Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, man, how's it going. He's like, you know,

1060
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 1: I'm good. And then I realized, oh, I don't know

1061
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 1: this guy. I was like, wait, how do we know

1062
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: each other? And he says, oh, dude, I'm just such

1063
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 1: a huge fan of yours. And I remember thinking, holy cow,

1064
00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,440
Speaker 1: that's how you get caught out there. Dude. From here

1065
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:02,799
Speaker 1: on out, if somebody says to me, Donald, how's it

1066
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 1: going and I don't know who they are, I'm not

1067
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:08,040
Speaker 1: gonna be embarrassed anymore, because there's that moment of embarrassment

1068
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 1: where you're like.

1069
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 2: Wait, I don't want to don't want to.

1070
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 1: Want hurt, hurt anybody's feelings. Oh.

1071
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 2: I thought of another person that I used to really

1072
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 2: get a lot before. Was Anne Hathaway's boyfriend that went

1073
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 2: to jail. Do you remember that guy?

1074
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 1: I don't.

1075
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,240
Speaker 2: He was involved in some I think it was business

1076
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 2: or money crime something, but he went to jail. And

1077
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 2: I walk in. This is years ago. I walk into

1078
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 2: a coffee bean and I walk in and I see

1079
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 2: our senial hall and he's looking right at me, and

1080
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't ever met our senial hall,

1081
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:40,640
Speaker 2: and but I was kind of geeked out because I

1082
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,320
Speaker 2: loved arsenial Hall and he kind of smiled at me.

1083
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,280
Speaker 2: He brought me over to the end of the counter

1084
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,239
Speaker 2: where they delivered the coffees, and there you can hear

1085
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:52,319
Speaker 2: the music. Oh is Eddie Murphy standing there? And I'm

1086
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 2: like having one of the greatest moments of my life.

1087
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,920
Speaker 2: And now when I meet famous people, I can normally

1088
00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 2: hold it together.

1089
00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna keep it on. I remember saying to

1090
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:01,879
Speaker 1: you one time, dude, how do you do this? Man? Like,

1091
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 1: that's freaking Benjamin Bratt right there, and you're not even

1092
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 1: geeking out, really, You're just like it's not even a

1093
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 1: and You're like, I don't, I don't, I don't geek out.

1094
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 2: Well, I can hold it together sometimes, but when I

1095
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,160
Speaker 2: met Eddie Murphy. I mean, I just started gushing. I

1096
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:15,799
Speaker 2: was like, Eddie, I'm so sorry, but I just want

1097
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 2: to say that, like you were like such an inspiration

1098
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 2: to me, and and and and and Beverly Hills cop

1099
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you it's I use it as an

1100
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 2: example all the time because like, the bad guys were

1101
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 2: like legitimately scary. But he goes, he goes, who that

1102
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 2: bad guys weren't scary? Who Victim Maitland? And I was like,

1103
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 2: oh my god, Eddie Murphy just said Victor Maitland to

1104
00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 2: me in a coffee shop. My life is peaked right now.

1105
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 2: He's like Victim Maitland and I'm like, no, not like

1106
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 2: Victor Maitland. Like, well, I was like the Henchman. He goes, yeah,

1107
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,239
Speaker 2: well the Henchman was scary. And then he interrupts me

1108
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 2: and he goes stares at me, and he goes, anybody

1109
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 2: ever tell you look like Anne Hathaway's boyfriend that went

1110
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 2: to jail? And I said what. He goes yeah, because

1111
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 2: I was watching the news and I was like, that

1112
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 2: looks like the dude from Scrubs. And I thought, this

1113
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 2: is the most surreal moment of my entire life. Eddie

1114
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,479
Speaker 2: Murphy is telling recognize. A he knows who I am because

1115
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 2: he knows what scrubs is. And B he's trying to

1116
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 2: figure out if I've been told before that I look

1117
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 2: like Ann Hathaway's boyfriend.

1118
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 1: That is hilarious.

1119
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 2: By the way, the last part of that story, I

1120
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 2: gotta tell you because it's so funny. I go to

1121
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 2: the Lama's Rob premiere, the movie premiere, and because I

1122
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 2: love Lama's Rob, as you know, and.

1123
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,840
Speaker 1: Drink with me two days gone barre.

1124
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 2: All right, So, by the way, we'll do a special

1125
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:36,799
Speaker 2: episode of this podcast where we just sing. Anyway, I'm

1126
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 2: walking and I know Anne Hathaway as an acquaintance, and

1127
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 2: and this is right around when all that shit went

1128
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 2: down with her boyfriend, and I'm walking towards her to

1129
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:51,040
Speaker 2: say congratulations, and her father stands up and like gives

1130
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 2: me this look like I'm gonna kill this mother fucker.

1131
00:50:55,880 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 2: He's got the balls to crash my daughter's mirror. I'm

1132
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 2: gonna strangle him. And I got within ten feet of

1133
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 2: the dude and then his face just fucking broke and

1134
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 2: he went like sided breath relief and realized that it

1135
00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:12,960
Speaker 2: was me not the ex boyfriend.

1136
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 1: Oh man, Now you know what black people go through

1137
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 1: all the time.

1138
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,880
Speaker 2: All right, I think we have a caller, right, Joelle.

1139
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 1: We do.

1140
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:23,880
Speaker 4: Welcome Kayla.

1141
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 2: Thanks for being here.

1142
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:26,640
Speaker 1: What's up? Kayla?

1143
00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:27,400
Speaker 2: Hi? Kayla?

1144
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:27,880
Speaker 1: He yo?

1145
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 2: Hi? How are you?

1146
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 4: I'm good. They're crazy but good.

1147
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:36,640
Speaker 1: I hear yeah, we hear you. It's crazy times.

1148
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for being our second ever caller.

1149
00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,240
Speaker 2: We're very very excited to have you. We can answer

1150
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,319
Speaker 2: any question you have about anything, well almost any question,

1151
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,279
Speaker 2: but mostly Scrubs related. That's about it.

1152
00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 4: That's fair, Okay. I guess like my first question would

1153
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 4: be a lot of shows that premiered at that time

1154
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 4: had that awkward first season, but for whatever reason for

1155
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 4: me a viewer, Scrubs didn't have that. Was that something

1156
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:04,720
Speaker 4: that you guys all felt as a cast?

1157
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:08,360
Speaker 1: Uh? Speaking for I was just happy to be on

1158
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:12,080
Speaker 1: television when I look back at it now. Absolutely, you're

1159
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:15,279
Speaker 1: absolutely right. Scrubs started off at a high point and

1160
00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 1: it just kept going up from there as far as

1161
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 1: storytelling goes. And that's really you know, you got to

1162
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 1: give props to Bill Lawrence and his team of writers. Also,

1163
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 1: you know, the crew and you know how they were

1164
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,880
Speaker 1: in line and just ready to go once we started.

1165
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,920
Speaker 2: With so many shows. I agree, Kayla, you go. You

1166
00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 2: can't help but go. Especially with pilots. I'm always saying

1167
00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,879
Speaker 2: to friends and when you know, when you recommend a show,

1168
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,400
Speaker 2: you're like, give it like three episodes because you know

1169
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:44,440
Speaker 2: the pilot's good and everything. But you know there's because

1170
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,319
Speaker 2: the pilots are so hard. You have to introduce so much,

1171
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 2: so many characters, and the tone and the style and

1172
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 2: the it's so hard to do a pilot have it worked.

1173
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,319
Speaker 2: So I guess you guys have said this to people too.

1174
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,400
Speaker 2: You're always like, just give you a couple episodes, Whereas

1175
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 2: I agree, Build builded such an amazing job with the

1176
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 2: pilot and the first few episodes that he was able

1177
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 2: to in twenty three minutes an episode, be able to

1178
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 2: just launch it. I'm just looking at the my screen.

1179
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,480
Speaker 2: This one was like twenty one minutes or so. It's

1180
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,239
Speaker 2: just amazing how much got crammed in and beautifully woven together.

1181
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,479
Speaker 1: You know, being on the show. I hate to brag

1182
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:16,880
Speaker 1: about the show, but I think that's what made the

1183
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,880
Speaker 1: show so great, you know what I mean. It's like,

1184
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,600
Speaker 1: you know, you didn't have to say give it two

1185
00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,799
Speaker 1: or three episodes. By the third episode, though, we were

1186
00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 1: really on fire. You know, we were really telling great stories.

1187
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 1: But we were telling great stories before that. It just,

1188
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 1: you know, it just elevated even higher after episode three

1189
00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:35,840
Speaker 1: because we found our groove.

1190
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:37,960
Speaker 4: I love that because I remember my mom asked me,

1191
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,359
Speaker 4: I probably feel like I need to start something, and

1192
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,040
Speaker 4: I said, you should start Scrubbs from the beginning, because

1193
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 4: I know you came in at this some pieces. She's like, see,

1194
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:46,640
Speaker 4: you don't have an episode for me to start, and

1195
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:48,200
Speaker 4: I said, no, you start from episode one.

1196
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 1: I love that. That's so awesome.

1197
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 2: That's great, Kayla. Do you have another question? Just because

1198
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 2: we're all in isolation and have nothing to do but

1199
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 2: to talk to you.

1200
00:53:56,719 --> 00:54:00,800
Speaker 4: Sure, so, I guess what's so great? Which is funny?

1201
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,400
Speaker 4: You say episode three? Episode two is probably my favorite

1202
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:08,520
Speaker 4: because so many of the show's major relationships are established

1203
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 4: in that episode. So was that chemistry instantaneous or did

1204
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:14,719
Speaker 4: that come from filming episodes over the coming week.

1205
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,319
Speaker 1: You know what's crazy is that that's how we opened the

1206
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 1: show today. Pretty much. We talked about how episode two

1207
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:25,320
Speaker 1: it really sets off the journey that a lot of

1208
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 1: these characters are going to have together, Carla and Turk,

1209
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:33,320
Speaker 1: Carla and Elliott, everybody in the hospital and doctor kelso

1210
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 1: Jd and Cox. All of these stories are really starting

1211
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,600
Speaker 1: to bubble at this point, you know what I mean,

1212
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:45,360
Speaker 1: or starting to you know, gurgle, Yeah, gurgle whatever, Sure,

1213
00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know if we should use gurgle.

1214
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 2: No, Like you know, when like a boiling water starts

1215
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:52,319
Speaker 2: to come to a gurgle. Isn't that the word?

1216
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,080
Speaker 1: No, it's not. That's not what gurgle means.

1217
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:58,799
Speaker 2: Thinking of gargle, not gurgling. Gurgle are different. I just

1218
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,879
Speaker 2: like saying gurgle. Another big thing was that we all

1219
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 2: genuinely got along. Like you know, a lot of shows,

1220
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:06,839
Speaker 2: you're meeting all these new people. Just like any job,

1221
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,600
Speaker 2: there's any people you don't like, there's many people that

1222
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:12,799
Speaker 2: you do like. We all really clicked, like you know,

1223
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 2: and I'm sure Donald and I have both been on

1224
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:18,160
Speaker 2: project since then where the magic wasn't there. This was

1225
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,719
Speaker 2: a project where like all those people we were and

1226
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,839
Speaker 2: the writers and Bill and the directors, the crew, we

1227
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:26,360
Speaker 2: were all friends and we were all hanging out. We

1228
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:29,200
Speaker 2: would all go out together. We just really genuinely loved

1229
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 2: each other and a testament to the seven main characters

1230
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:35,240
Speaker 2: in the show. We all, you know, over nine years.

1231
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,360
Speaker 2: We had our moments. Of course, just like a family,

1232
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:40,080
