• 1:26
  Speaker 1: They go deep like Donald, this isn't wow. This is
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: the thing everybody's doing nowadays, Like everybody's just getting that
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: rapid test to make sure that they can hang out
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: with each other. We should have told me you could
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: have hung out in my apartment. I'm so sorry that's
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: sitting there empty. I didn't want to bother you. I'm
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: so sorry. Next time for it, Daniel. That's very interesting
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: because when I ask for that ship, he tells me
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: no every time. Yeah, you know why. You know why
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: because Daniel will fucking be respectful. I can picture you
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: having like a party and smoking fucking jazz cabbage one.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I don't have any friends other than you and Daniel
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: and Joel and Daniel and Joel and I don't hang out. Okay, wait,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: wait till the tour bus. Wait till the tour bus.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Oh my god. That's so dangerous. But I can I
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: can trust. I can picture trusting Daniel in my apartment,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: and I know that nothing would happen with you. I
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: can picture like you'd forget some candle next to the
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: drapes and then backdraft. I find that one offensive because
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: what makes you think that I like candles? What the
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: fun is that about? I don't like candles candles. I
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: am one of those people who does not like candles,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: I think. I mean, my wife loves candles, so they
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: burn in our house. But I'm one of those people
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: who's like, you're gonna light a candle? Is this like
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: a fire hazard thing? I just don't. I mean, that
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: smells waxy and scented. The only candles I do like
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: is at the hotel whatever that hotel is that's in
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: New York City, and the lobby smells like it smells
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: like this certain candle, and apparently this candle costs a
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: ship ton of money. I want to say it's the
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Bowery I could. Is that the one with the club
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: in the lobby. It's not a club, it's like a
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: really sexy lounge. There's there's one that has literally a
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: club right next door, Like on some nights you come
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: downstairs and there's a club popping right next door. It's
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: like and and you can easily you can easily. What
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: is the other one. There's a bunch of them anyway.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: My point, Josh Rayden stayed at the Bowery so much
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: they gave him an embroidered bathrobe with his name on it.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: And when he would stay the bathroom would be lying
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: on the bed. But he had to leave the bathrobe
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: there when he left. Literally at the Bowery, when you stay,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: when you spend enough money there and stay there long enough,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you get your own embroidered robe, and they lie in
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: on your bed when you're there, and when you're not there,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: they stored away in the embroidered road rooms. Good dollar, good?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Did you see what? What? First of all, I need
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: to know. First of all, I have a special surprise
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: for you in this episode I planned. Okay, Donald, Joel
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: and Dan will know what the surprise is. You got
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: me to fucking oh shoot, you got to yeah, Zick,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you got me to simulator. Now, calm that not that good.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: It's not a six thousand dollar golf simulator. No. I
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: really appreciate that though. By the way, speaking of speaking
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: of surprises, I don't even know who two Chains is.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: I imagine he's a very famous rapper. Right, did you
• 4:46

• 4:59
  Speaker 1: the future right up to something right now. I've never
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: heard of two Chain song. I imagine he's very successful.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: And I can tell you that he's friends with Kanye
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: West because I went on the inner webs today and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Kanye West gave two Chains an amphibious a t V.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: That is the coolest looking thing I've ever seen. Kanye
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: West is a billionaire dude, no I know, but he
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: still gave his friend an amphibious a t V and

  Speaker 1: Six out of the out of the half a million
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: over half a million people that follow me playing now.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: So wait, you're saying Donald, It's just so I'm clear,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: you're saying that someone trolled the thing you do and
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: now you're gonna change it, and you're gonna change it
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: to what I'm just gonna give a summary of what
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: happens in the episode. By the way, you know, what
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: you should do is protests once in a while, is
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: you should just read Zack's end voice over words. But Bill,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: but Bill, as you as you told us, they don't
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: really make much sense out of context. They're like, at
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: the end of the day, the friends that you have
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: are the best friends you're ever gonna have. That's what
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: you need to have. Friends. You're using half a little
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: too much, and that's bad writing, buddy, you're losing. You
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: use half three times. The friends you have are gonna
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: be the friends at the end of the day. The
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: friends you have will always be the friends you get.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: So being happy with what you have obtained, all you need,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: all you need is a slow motion crane shot and
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: a stad Indie song And I got tears of my hons. Well,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: you're the one that taught me that. Actually, you're the
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: one that taught me that, Because it's no bullshit. Bill,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: You're the one that told me that. And it's it's
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: it's so bad that I go to other jobs now
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: and writers will have, you know, it'll say something like that.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: It'll be like, uh, we have to get out of
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: here because we have to find a way to you know,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: do something. And I'm like, we're saying we have to
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: like twice, is there another way that we can do this? Right?
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I see writers look at me like how do fun?
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Who do who do? And it's always like I always
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: want to be like, well, you know, legendary comedy writer
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Bill Lawrence talking you guys can you guys can do
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: it however you'd like. But just so you know, Bill Lawrence,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: all right, so if I've got if I understand this rightly,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: you're just gonna summarize the facts of the episode now
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: because you've been successfully trolled. Yes, just this one. And
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't know it was gonna be on the show.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: I would have known Bill was gonna be on the show.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: I said, And yeah, by the way, this is so,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: this is the this is what you get when you
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: complain petulant recap. I like that, right, this is what
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: you get. This is what you get when you complain
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: ready one two? Alright. This episode shows every level of
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the relationship. Elliott and Nurse Flowers are at the end
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: of Bears, Jordan and Cox are the brand new baby phase.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Turke and Carlor are now engaged and they're feeling the
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: pressure of having to follow through, and j D is
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: single and ready to mingle with tasty. Come a wife,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: there you go. That's I don't. I don't, I don't,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: I don't. I don't like it. I know you don't
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: like it. Yeah. For me, I have to be honest
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: with you, Donald, Um, there was something nice about you
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: as this many years later looking back and seeing the
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: episode as a whole and giving your emotional sort of
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: summary of it from someone who wasn't really to what
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: you've said before, wasn't really looking at it very closely
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: at the time, And now this many years later, you're
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: looking back at it and seeing something. I I think
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: that's very valuable and I think listen, if you're one
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: of the six people that successfully troll Donald, you can
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: type in episodes of Scrubs to sixteen summary and you'll
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: beat home run. There We'll go to Trevor Wicky and
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: he'll freaking summarize it for you. This is what you
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: get from being petty. Donald and Zack can't ask for this,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: but I would ask people that are listening to that,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: when love Donald's old summations, to please let him know
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: after this episode that you love the way he used
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: to do it, because I found it much more passionate
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: and I loved hearing him talk about it. I like
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: it the other way too. I'm not gonna lie to
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: you guys. So that was the only time, by the way,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: and if if, no matter how long we do this podcast,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: that is the only time you will ever hear Donald
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: do a true boring summary of the episode. I like that.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I like that you discover something, Donald, because let's be honest,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: you were either on jazz Cabbage or playing a video
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: game and not really paying attention to what we were doing.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: So now twenty years later you're looking back. I'll tell you,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: you know, this episode it really makes you think about
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: the relationship that you're going that I'm going through right now,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: and made me look at that, you know what I mean.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: My wife and I have surpassed every level of relationship.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: In this episode, We've had the kid and we you know,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: they're growing. Now, we've already did the beginning dates, we
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: did the we did the breakup and then get back
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: together stuff, Like everything that's happened in this episode, my
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: wife and I have done. And that's the one thing,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: because these characters are so new, that's the one thing
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: in this episode that is missing, if you ask me, uh,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: is the successful We've done it all, but these guys
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: are finding each other and getting to know each other.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: In my tasty come of wife this episode. This is
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: a really good episode. Laughed so many times, dude, I thought, Phil,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: I'm so glad. First of all, I know that you
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: you technically write them all because you're overseeing the writer's room,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: but your name is actually on this one, along with
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Adam Bernstein, who's directed the pilot, And so I was
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: just so happy that I happened to ask you to
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: come on, because not only is it a great seminal
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: episode with a lot of great stuff in and very moving,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: I thought at the end, but you happen to be
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: one with your with your name on the script, so
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I was I was doubly glad you were here. And
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Laverne has the best Laverne has the best line in
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: the show. Oh good episod this is good episode, which
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: one way I think I wrote down that line a
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: good Show Today, Good Show Today, Good Show Today. That's
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: sixth wrote that down. So the show opens up guys
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: with I'm trying to go in for a slow kiss
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: with Rowdy and the audience is the visual makes the
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: audience go, what the fuck is going on? And then
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: you reveal that Donald is coaching me because I haven't
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: been with a woman in a while and I'm rusty,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: and he's giving me some some drills, kissing drills. I
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: think you always go left or right, right one of
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: the two. I always go right. I always go right,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: and I'm I'm I'm. Basically, I just wanted to say
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: out loud that that Bill Lawrence got on television network television,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Um a show that opens with a man French kissing
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: at taxidermy dog. That makes me so happy. You know
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: what made me happy about that section? I know Donald's
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: heard it before. I wanted Donald to tell me if
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: it was real or not. When you're working your wrap
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: with that dog, I think you use your young Zach
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Braff's sexy voice and uh, you know when he's like, hey,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: you want some kibble and put and I put, I
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: put my finger on his lips, and I wanted to
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: ask Donald if he ever heard that sexy voice for real,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Zach trying to lay that sexy girl, that sexy voice
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: on people back in the day. No, you know, No,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I've never been I've never been next to Zach when
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: he has his game down. That's me. You've heared me,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: never heard You've I've heard I've seen you be like
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: I'm going in and then you go in and then
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: come back like, oh yeah, it worked. But I've never
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: seen I've never been privy to Hey girl, I've never
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: I've never been pretty the music and you know the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: in the song where the base finally gets to talk,
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Hey girl, you come to the row, I have a
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: better I've never heard that moment. Well, my my game
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: isn't that good, but my game is certainly Uh. I
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: don't have a low base hey baby voice, but I did.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: I did think it was just I loved what I
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: loved about the show Bill is what I'm saying is
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: that I'm saying in a joking way, but I just
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: love that how bizarre this show is that it opens
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: like this and then and then just when you think, like, Okay,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: that was random and weird. Way later on, when I
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: go to kiss Amy Smart, you call it back because
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: here Donald's like, no, man, you go right too much.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: You gotta go left when I'm leaning into kiss. And
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: then later I go to kiss Amy Smart and she's like, oh,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: you went left, as if as if, by the way,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: anyone has ever used that as a judgment factor for
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: kissing where you went after right? No one has ever
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: said that to anybody, right. It makes me think, and
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: I'm if you're listening right now, do you think about it?
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Do you do you have a normal way that you
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: lean in to make hat with someone. I'm doing it
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: alone by myself right now. I think I probably do
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: normally favor left. Do you go right? Right? Dud I
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: go right? I would walk in well, because we both
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: go right, Joel, you go right. I don't know, right, Okay,
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I might be a lefty
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: when it comes to the leaning. Well, you're the question
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: that did she go left because that's the only way
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: it works, but is if she goes left also, I
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: don't know. I gotta tell you it's really I'm gonna
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: try later on and see what happens. But I think
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I'm a lefty when it comes to that. Bill, I
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: couldn't help but wonder when Krista's being so incredibly horrible
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: to Johnny cum during during as they deal with their newborn,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: if any of this could possibly have been based on
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: real life. Yeah, you guys are well aware that I
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: was just at this stage of having kids with Krista,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: and that, uh, I, without a doubt lived in a
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: world that I was supposed to remove my shoes and
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: wash my hands, even though I still wasn't allowed to
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: hold my daughter. So uh, and it was a lot
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: of get out of the room, don't make noise, turn
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: that light off, Go get me this, go do that.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: So yes, by the way, the only thing that was
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: different was I was not nearly shirtless, is often as
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: Johnny C chose to be around his wife in newborn.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Otherwise we're supposed to. Yeah, so Johnny C is is naked.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: Now why do you do when you're in the writer's room,
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: are you guys at this point you know, end of
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: season two, sort of laughing like, oh, Johnny C loves
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: to be naked. Let's make him be naked and show
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: off his muscles. Uh do you do you really think
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: that we right? Johnny C shirtless or uh, you know
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: that one, that one we did it. Yeah, he normally
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: decides on his own, but this one we did script
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: because for full disclosure, we had seen so many scenes
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: that we hadn't written it um that we decided to
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: write it once and have her say we all get it,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: you love your body. Then he puts on a Shocky jersey.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Is that a real sports player shocky or yeah? Jeremy
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Shocky was a tight end for the New York Giants.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: He was He played really well for us. His you know,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: his football career was short. He had a pretty short
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: football career. Actually, he was really good. But then got
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: hurt a bunch of yeah, yeah, like a lot of heads,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Like he broke a lot of bones, I think, and
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: got his head hit. But he was a tight end.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: He was like you know, before Tony Gonzalez, tight ends
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: were pretty much just blocking and everything like that, and
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: then Tony and yeah, yeah, there's a bunch of him
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: now And the best one ever is by far Bronkowski.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: Like Gronkowski's taking everything and all of these other Titans
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: have done and turned it into a you know a
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: k eiver role that is very like it's it's it's
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: unheard of to have a bunch of receivers and your
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: best receiver be your tight end. You know what I mean?
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: And yeah, watch watch you don't watch Zack's eyes roll
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: back into his head when I say, but don't you
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: think Travis Kelsey is also kind of coming up behind shock,
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: coming up behind ground right now, and if he blows
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: his brains out? I have a question. I have a question, zactly.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but we're talking about tight ends right now.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: I have I literally, like j D, I swear to god,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: you said tight end, and like j D, I went
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: off and started thinking about what I picture is a
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: tight end, a nice firm bottom. And then you guys
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: pulled me back when you said Grunkowski because I think
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: I know what that guy looks like. Can you explain
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: to the listeners who don't follow football what does a
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: tight end do? A tight end? Basically, A tight end
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: is basically a blocker. Really, It's like somebody who can
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: who you know, is on the line and blocks for
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: the quarterback, but is eligible to catch the ball also
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: if needed. You know what I mean, So you only
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: have a certain uh bunch of players that can actually
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: catch the ball. It's illegal for other players to do it. Oh,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that the right. So you're saying, not
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: every player is allowed to catch the ball. No, they
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: have to be an eligible they have to be an
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: eligible receiver. Sometimes someone will have to tell the refs
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: that on a certain formation he is eligible, like alignment
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: can suddenly be eligible. But not everybody can catch the ball.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: I had I did not know that. And then uh,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: and then what Donald it? To make it more interesting,
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: what Donald and I are talking about is the position
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: is evolved because these guys are so big there to
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: these the new modern tight end is too big to
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: be covered by a little defensive back. Were the ones
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: that cover receivers and uh, too fast to be covered
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: by a big linebacker. And because these guys are now
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: become the kind of ultimate athletes on football teams, these
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Travis kelsey Kelsey's and grons and Tony Gonzalez. Right, if
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: you have a good tight if you have a good
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: tight end, you all you got a good tight end. Donald, there,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: now we're back on thank you very much, thank you.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Bronkowski has come out of retirement because Yeah, dude, he's
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: He's probably the most popular Titan ever in the history
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: of Titans. He's a character. He's like, I once worked
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: out with this dude, and when I tell you, holy
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: sh it, Like the workout I was doing was a
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: warm up for him, you know what I mean? And
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I was I was sweating and jumping and lifting weights
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: and everything like that, and it was literally a warm
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: up for him. And then he went into something else after.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: So you know, um, let's talk about how he's decided
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: to call me dogs names. But let's talk about these
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: pratfalls first though, man, because there are a couple of
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: platfalls in the opening that are pretty dope. One Ricky Schroeder.
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Schroder has a great pratfall over the thing with the
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: blindfold on. Yeah, and then you have a great pratfall
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: epic one. Yeah. And I even winced it myself. I
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: was like, how did that not hurt? Because it's definitely
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: me doing it, and it looked like it fucking hurt.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: It looked it looked like it really really hurt. And
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: you add the noise on those two, it seemed violent.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: I liked it. I feel like if I was if
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: there was a sport that was stunt pratfalls. I could
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: I could be good at it. Well, your best pratfall
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: of all times with tasty Karma wife, either later this
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: year or next year when you fall down the stairs
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: at her husband's funeral. That's the next episode. I think.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: I think that's coming up. Um. Also, I want to
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: give a shout out to Paige Peterson. She's been on
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: the show four times now and we want to and
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: we've yet to talk about her. She was the nurse
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: that said I'm having surgery right now or I'm having
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: whatever it is right now and loving it. This is
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: her fourth time on the episode, and she's the one
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: that says, you aren't you the one that likes to
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: make out with dogs right before you go into Wait
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: did you know her? How did you know her name?
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Or you looked it up? I looked it up. Oh yeah,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: that's nice. Yeah, it's good of you to give her
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: a shout out because she she actually she She's got
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: a lot of funny one liners and she did a
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: good job. It's also so hard back then to have
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: continuity and do a network show that like you're hoping
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: that people would see the same nurses and doctors that
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: don't necessarily speak every week, but still have those people
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: be in the background every week, you know. So it's
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: cool when we were able to do that with somebody. Yeah,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: this was her last I think this is her last
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: episode unfortunately, but well I'm hoping that's because she went
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: and got lots more work somewhere else. Well she I
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: believe she did. I believe she did. I believe she
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: did get another job. She when she's she's she's talented
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: and funny and pretty. So those are good qualities to
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: have in Hollywood. Speaking of which, it leads to a
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: conversation about Amy Smart, which we're gonna have after this break,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: because she certainly is pretty, and she certainly is funny,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: and she does a great job in this episode. So
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: we will be right back for you, and we're bad
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: and back. Come on, Bill, you gotta do it the same.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, I'm still by the way. So
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: what's the early verdict on interrupting Bill on that? I
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: love you guys, how you guys feeling it and people
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: really like it and the fans love it, and I
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: felt bad because, um, your your your tone in the
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: second one was sort of build and I said, I
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: don't know if you heard the last episode, but I
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: was like, I think we may have heard Bill's feelings.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: And I was like, Bill, You're allowed to go on
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: as long as you want, even if you want to
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: do a seven minute money log. It is fine by
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: us the fans. By the way, we didn't hurt Bill's feeling.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: It was Donald said he was cool with it, and
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Donald said, I'm fine Donalds. I think the quote is
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with it. It's Bill, I'm fine with it.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: And then if I'm just I can't remember the specific
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: but I think it was exactly Zack who said the
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: funny thing was wait, the funny thing was on your
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: last bit of trivia? The answer was Elizabeth Banks. And
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't get it at all, but Donald knew it,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: and you and the only thing you'd recorded is thanks Zak,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you're the one who got it. It was
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: so by the way, I know, but I don't expect,
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: because of Donald's rep on the show for him to
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: remember this stuff. So when he does get what, I'm
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: happily surprised. Are you kidding me? When Elizabeth Banks came
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: on the show, I thought it was the biggest deal
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: after watching Uh the four year Old Virgin and he goes,
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna put my bicycle in your trunk and she goes, oh.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: And then when she came onto show, I was like,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: I'm paying attention to this. I want to talk about
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: something before we go forward with the Amy smart thing.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: Ralph he's back on this episode and and somebody said
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: to me on the into Web and I'm not sure
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: if this is true because now I don't I don't.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: I didn't remember the young man's name. But apparently Ralphie
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: is in Shazam. Oh ship is he really? That's cool?
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Apparently Ralphie's in Shazamn, either as one of the kids
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: or as uh, the one of the super kids. This
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: is nineteen years ago. He's not a kid or then
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: as one of the superheroes. This could because there's a
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: whole bunch of there's a whole bunch of Shazam's at
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: the end of sam at the end of spoiler were
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: you trying to figure out and maybe Joel if you
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: could send us in the chat a picture of what
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: he looks like today, because I'm dying to know. But
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: I actually saw that and I saw that movie in
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: the theaters because Zach is the star of Zach play
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Sasam in that no, no bill, that's a different that's
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: a different sact. What if I was in Chasam, you
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: guys would all have amphibious a t vs like like
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: Kanye West just gave three chains. Although I don't think
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: you're correct about Joey being in Shazam, Okay, but it
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: wasn't me that somebody. Somebody said it to me. Uh
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: And now that person was wrong there, that's that's the
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: same person that was wrong about how brilliant your summaries
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: of the episodes are. Thank you, Thank you person who
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: said that Joey was in Shazam. You were wrong. So
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: you were correct about something. Though last week Joey was
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: in the gag reel um absolutely thrown into the glass
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: door exit by accident. Yeah, I remember that, tossed into it.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: I also remembered on the gag reel for those of
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: you whould like to go back and look at them.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: And by the way, if you don't know, we sometimes
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: use the words interchangeably for those of you who don't know,
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: a gag and blooper reel or something we cut together
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: at the end of every season they're just kind of
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: the mistakes, funny, funny mistakes from when we're filming, and
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: I think they're all on YouTube. You can look up
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: for example, Season two scrubs. They'll either say blooper or gag.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: They're kind of used interchangeably, and they're very funny. And
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: one of the things not only is Ralphie hitting the
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: door on there, but in this episode when Donald falls
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: over Rowdy. Do you remember this. I don't know if
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: I remember. A crew member was like holding up Rowdy
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: to make sure he didn't fall over something. We had Rowdy.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: It wasn't held up but Zach. We had Rowdy, uh,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: because he had trouble standing at that point because some
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: of his legs strength has deteriorated. Rowdy had to be
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: kind of fastened. I was rowdy, Riggs, I forgot he
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: was Rowdy was fastened. He was kind of fastened to
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: the little carpeting thing there to stand upright, you know
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: what I mean. And the assumption was when Donald would
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: hit Rowdy that he would go down, but I still couldn't.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: I still couldn't. The joke is I've tripped over Rowdy
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: and but Rowdy couldn't fall or didn't look right, and
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: so I had to pretend that I tripped over rowdy
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: with knocking rowdy over, which makes which makes up to
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: stay up as if rowdy was solid it and Donald
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: just fell down, not like fell on top of Rowdy.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: So on the gag reel, which you'll see, is that
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: Donald trips over rowdy, Rowdy falls down and then magically
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: pops back up again. I remember, Donald, you started I
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: read the whole crew started cackling. It was so fucking funny.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: I when I saw the when I saw the gag
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: on this, when I saw the the stunt fall on this,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: I went, oh my god, I remember that moment, and
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: this is like nineteen years ago. That's how funny it was.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: It was very disturbing too, because it made the dog seem,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: you know, like it was. Um, well, Bill, I what
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: was the story about Amy? I mean, I'm sure that
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: I had if you had asked me, and you would say, hey,
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: we need a very funny, attractive new love interest for you.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: If if the year was two thousand two, I probably
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: like any heart, because um, I think that you know,
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: she's obviously a beauty, but I really think she's got
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: comedic chops and I thought she was really really good
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: in this episode. Well you know, it's uh, we had
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: it randomly, you'd be surprised. But a lot of times casting,
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: especially if it's not huge stock, casting starts much like
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: Donald said about Elizabeth Banks, who obviously is a huge
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: star now and back there was doing uh whatever horse
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: movie was and Virgin you know, and all that stuff
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: and just kind of getting her career going. What was
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: the horse movie she was? She played Jeff Bridge's young
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: wife was No one even knows that's her? Um, what
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: the horse whisperer? No? Did you guys? You guys get this.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: It's the Sea Biscuit. She played Jeff Bridge's young wife
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: in that with brown hair. And she was also in
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Catch Me if you can. I think with Leo. I
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: think she had a Leo. She was also in all
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: of the Spider Man movies as the secretary for J.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: James J. Jamison. That's his name, right, J. J. Jonah Jamison.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: And then uh so, But the point is like that
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: sometimes casting will come us who when people are starting
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: to dig the show, and we'll do it from us
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: having watched a movie. And I think a bunch of
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: the writers in the room saw a road Trip because
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: they cast both Amy Smart and remember DJ Qualls or
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: whatever his name, the tall kind of dork yet they
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: were both from Road Trips. Would be like, hey, this
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: is a funny movie with people doing comedy and the
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: cool thing was Scrubs. At this point had reached the
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: stage that when you reached out to people like that
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: if they had seen the show, like Amy was really
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: cool about going, yeah, I'll come to a bunch, you know,
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: so I think and I knew her. I knew her,
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: I knew we're a little bit as a through mutual
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: friends and um, through me, dude, No, not through you,
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: through Johnson Man. Actually, well, I've known Amy since road
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: Trip when I was doing Remember the Titan, she was
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: doing road Trip, and then I did Felicity and she
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: was on Felicity at the same time as I was,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: and then she came and did Scrubs. So I'm pretty
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: sure at some point I there was and it might
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: have been Josh Rading but ye, but John was dating
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Josh was dating Um at the time. Um her Amy's
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: best friend a woman named Debra, and uh, so I anyway,
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: I knew her a little bit, and uh, whatever happened happened,
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: and Uh, she's just great on the show. And I
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: thought it was very funny Bill, the setup you wrote
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: where you're setting up the saddest story ever, Like her
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: husband's in a coma, she's a she's been left all alone,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: she's a young bride. It's so tragic, and that you're
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: like totally eating the audience down this down this hole.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: And then it cuts to the classic Scrubs sexy turnaround
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: with the wind and everything was so funny. Yeah, I
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: think your voice are like Also, she happens to be
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: incredibly hot. Everybody calls her tasty Comma wife or something
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: like that. I remember getting a note on, uh, tasty
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: Comma wife of the I don't think it was a
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: huge one. But whoever covered the show from NBC thinking
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: that was too insensitive for not only thinking that was
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: too insensitive for everybody, you know, all my characters what
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: you like to call her that? But but us of
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: that note, Um, we wrote into the script that you
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: were the one, your character was the one that gave
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: her that nickname. Remember at the end, she's like, it's like,
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: do people call me tasty calm a wife? And you're like,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know, she's like, I love it, and you're like,
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: I thought it up. So I met few people who
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: are listening. Bill would be interested to note that that,
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: you know, you gotta hit show because, as it says
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: on Scrubs Wiki, season two was our biggest season in
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: terms of viewership ever. And you're still getting minutia notes
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: like that from from a from a network. Yeah, but
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: you realized that. Yeah, But it's a good thing because
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: all it really means is when the show is doing well.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: The people that work on the networks, they're there because
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: they love TV. That's why they're not in business, you know,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: That's why they didn't go to, you know, into the
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: financial world. And so once the show has some heat
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: and buzz behind it, it's even more exciting to try
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: and contribute and give your two cents. And it's never malicious,
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: you know, wouldn't it be more interesting if they did this?
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: It wouldn't be cool if they did that. And then
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: as producers, you make the choice do we let everybody
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: feel the pride of ownership, which we like to do
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: on this show, or um, do you get jerky and
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: go hey, now that we have leverage, we don't those
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: in't anything you say, which I think is kind of
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: productive because then people aren't looking too And you know,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: with us, especially with the Disney folks who gave us notes,
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: you know, we loved them feeling like they were part
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: of the creative part of the shop. Remember when we
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: did the musical and the president of Disney Studios, Mark Petalitz,
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: like rented a whole theater for us and had us
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: all go watch the musical on a big movie theater
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: and stuff. And that's because they felt like they were
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: all part of it, you know what I mean. And
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: you also you also become friends with people in time,
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I'm not gonna lie. I
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: have a bunch of friends, well a few, I shan't
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: say a bunch. I have a few friends that are
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: actual network executives, now you know what I mean. And work,
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: you guys would run into Julia friends who helped run
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: that run Disney Studios all the time, and she was
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: such a huge, you know, cheerleader for the show. I
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: remember all you guys having great relationships with it. It
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: makes such a difference when you have an executive who
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: really gets it and and campaigns for the show. Because
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: I feel like these are these decisions on your life
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: or death or just made in in conference rooms. I mean,
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: the numbers are looked at and judged, and I'm sure,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: but but there's also like the when it's on the bubble,
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: the the how many people in the room were going, no,
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: trust me, just give it a chance, and and and
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: as opposed to people going ah and and if you're
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: it sounds like what you're saying is also that if
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: you're the show running, you're a dick and you're on
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: the bubble, people are like, you know, what funk that guy? No,
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: cancel it? You know it's it's it's interesting. I do
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: agree with that, you know, I think you have to
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: find that fine line of you know, standing up for
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: what you care about creatively and not capitulating. But also,
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: if people are invested in the show, why not, you know,
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: let them feel the private ownership of their working their
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: butts off on it. I will say, like for us,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: there's an absolute direct correlation to the seventh year. I
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: didn't care when this show ended after we got through
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: six years as long as we knew, because I knew
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: how I wanted the show to end. In the seventh year,
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: the show almost ended without us being able to control
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: it because of the writer's strike. And I think it
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: was only because how the writers and how all you
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: guys reacted towards Disney our studio that when NBC said
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: writers strike and we're done, the ABC called up and said,
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: how do you guys like to switch to another network
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: and do your last season? And I that was one
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: of my favorite seasons of the show, season eight. So um,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: I think that happened in part because we considered them
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: part of our team. You know what season was it
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: that we took so we are hiatus was so long
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: one time? No, it wasn't it was. It was almost
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: a year. Yeah, it was because season seven ended right
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: in the early part of the season and season eight
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: we decided to move it over to ABC, and uh,
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: there was a long gap before we started shooting. I
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: think it might have it might have been a full
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: calendar year. It was crazy. Yeah, I feel you reminded
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: me that I felt sad. I has a sad about
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: the sort of medieval Times episode we we did because
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: I put so much love and work in directing it,
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: and you put so much love and work into writing it,
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: and because of what was happening in the writer strike
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: that that would have been the series finale of Scrubs.
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: I feel like I was super underappreciated because man, that
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: was a expensive, slash artistic, slash fun episode to do,
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: and I didn't think it ever got any love. No,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: it was. And remember NBC, because there was a strike
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: and they didn't care about anything other than bottom line
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: at that point, jig juggled the order of episodes to
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: air that last as if it was the season finality,
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: and it made no sense. Yeah, and a lot of
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: people are like, that's it, that's how you're ending the show,
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: and we're like, no, we didn't mean to please like it. Phil.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: It was very upsetting as an homage to the Princess Bride. Man,
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: it's a great episode, just so cool. Oh man, I
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: love that episode. And no one ever talks about. Whenever
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: we like bring up conversations about what's your favorite episode,
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: they say the musical, they say the Brandon Frasier episode.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: You know, all the standards, but no one ever ever
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: mentioned that episode. And I thought it was really good.
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: Um Um, could I say something? I want to We
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: almost skipped pasting this one is twenty one. I'm doing
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: a thing because it's a compliment to Donald. I loved
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: because we did a bunch of different versions over the years,
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: and Donald might not remember. Uh. When Laverne went Aloma
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: would kind of break into Donald's questions and he would say,
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: like you would say, like, we're only deal when people
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: are invited. In this one, he says, I checked the
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: guest list for this conversation, and you're not on it
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: in this one. That's it. I remember that. So this
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: is one. This is one. At the end, you made
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: a noise and I remember seeing that that and they
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: made me so because there's you're not an I don't
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: know what, but it was fantastic accepted and received. I
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: don't know where that came from. I watched it today
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: and I laughed my ass off at this. I noticed now,
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: But I noticed now at this point in the show,
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: I started getting really comfortable. You know what I mean.
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: If you're watching the show from the beginning when we started.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: Like as much as as much as I like to
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: think that I knew about comedy when we started, I
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: feel like I was, out of everyone, the one who
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: had the hardest time picking up jokes. And the crazy
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: thing was you kept writing jokes for me, and sometimes
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: I would nail them and sometimes I wouldn't. But I'm
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: starting to notice as it's going on now I'm starting
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: to get comfortable with the character. And it's it doesn't
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: feel like like it sounded like it felt like before
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: that I was reading it or I was forcing it,
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: and now I'm just starting to relax. Yeah, but you're
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: you're you're just doing Yes, you can tell how naturalistic
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: you are now, but you're just harsh on yourself away
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: all performers do. You were always funny, dude. I love
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: that you put yourself under that critical eye, but it's
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: it's not true. But no. But also one thing I'll
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: say Bill is to use a sports term, is that
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: he is in the zone in this episode. There's there's
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: lots of little riffing. You're doing Donald, You're feeling confident.
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: I thought you were really good in this episode, the
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: both doing uh and the end when he's mad at
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: Ralphie when he says, you shut your mouth right now,
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: by the way, which is a surer. Right now, I
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: gotta interrupting. It's an interrupting Bill moment. While I'm here,
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the song is interrupted. Bill interrupted,
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: So for real. We would occasionally have recurred jokes over
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: the years that you were listening on the board. You
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: guys wouldn't recognize them because they're just tiny jokes that
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: we thought keep going. And one of Donald's was there
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: was four different times across the years that Donald told
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: Laverne that he, uh, unless she got an invitation, she
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: should sit down. He's seen the guest list, She's not
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: on it. He didn't. He did that to her so
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: many times, do you know? And it happened at the
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: the nine minute mark. What a weird reoccurring joke was
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: for you, Zack in reference to um calling yourself the boat,
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: do you know what the reoccurring joke is? The reoccurring
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: joke is that I, in my voiceover, I say that
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: I clearly wanted a cool nickname for myself and I'm
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: always auditioning them. The boat would be a cool nickname.
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: And then something and then something happens, and I'm like,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: way to go boat. You have you go back and
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: watched this series. There's eight different times that you're trying
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: to have a nickname, whether it be a lion or
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: tiger or whatever, just catch hold, and it never does.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: And one of the things they said at the beginning
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: of this series was j D should always wish he
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: had a nickname and never get one. That's funny. That's
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: very funny. That's funny. I didn't know. I didn't. I
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: didn't clock it as recurring. But I did laugh at
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: at at me calling my trying to get my own name.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: It's funny because you can't get your own nickname, going
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: like no, yeah, if you try so many times. I
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: think sometimes Donald says to your someone says she, no
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: matter how bad you want it, no one's ever going
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: to call you big cat or call you Lyne or
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: something that's in a different episode. Um, I laughed. I
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: think I improved this bill when when Amy Smart says
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: you have something on your cheek and I go working
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: in a hospital, did you make it? Who made was that?
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: Adam or you? That made her lick you? I'm about
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: to say, where did that come from? No? That was script.
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: She wasn't the script. She's not randomly licking me. Well, No,
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: I think I think that it's like I'll get it
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: and she does something aggressive was there? But I think
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: that it was probably an actress or direct or choice
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: to go just lick it off. Yeah, I mean I
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: think is probably lick your thigh and to kiss it
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: or something. I I certainly wasn't being like to Amy
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: smart like what if you were to look I was,
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: I wasn't implying. I was not implying that you're doing.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Maybe instead of licking your finger and touch, you should
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: lick my face in this moment, Amy, Amy, Amy, Amy,
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: do you see on the sides, So it says she
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: licks her thumb. What if you just lick my face?
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: When Donald goes, when um Donald? When Judy says that
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: was there's something about sleep toots? And then you do
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: the sound of them? What's the sound you make? You do?
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: You do air first you go? I always had that.
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: I always wondered why do farts see it? Sound like
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: they're asking a question? It always well, I love it,
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: I love it. And then Nurse Roberts says, like I
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: make Mr Roberts where air tight boxers burnt? By the way,
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: and she is always contributing in your ship more than anybody's.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: If she hears you talking to someone, she gets into it,
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: which really makes people. Let's talk about Elliott sabotaging her relationship.
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: She's finally got some joy. She's finally we in the
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: last episode, she finally said that she's happy, um, for
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: the first time in her life. Donald and I were
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: talking about the last episode how Elliott's sort of bopping
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: around in the rare like non neurotic mood, and now
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: she's already wanting to sabotage it because she she she's
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know that's what she does. Right, Well, look
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: this with this you'll find interesting because we this script
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: was easy to write because we come up with premises
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: ahead of time, right, and we thought, um, you know
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: it'd be cool is Donald and Judy carl in Turk
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: we set up because remember that kid had eaten a
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: ring and gotten paid. We knew we had to bring
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: it back. Donald paid him not to say anything, so
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: we knew that was gonna be a problem. Johnny c
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: you know Dr Cox and Jordan's you know, had to
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: have We didn't have a problem for Rick and h Elliott. Yeah,
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: but Dr Cox and Jordan were dealing with the kid.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: And usually our episodes, everybody has to figure out how
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: to have a solution, you know, in you know, how
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: to get to the solution of their story. And this
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: one we said, you know'd be cool is we don't
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: ever have to do the solution if they're just all
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: having petty ship go on, And because j D is
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: so alone, he yells at them for not realizing that
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: they got it better than him, and that makes all
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: their problems go away. So you didn't even have to
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: do the story work at the end, you know what
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: I mean. So that's how we came up with the
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: way we came up with the Elliott and Nurse Flowers
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: things to go. What could she cause ship over just
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: because she's scared that she's starting to like the guy?
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: You know? Yeah? Yeah, it's clever the way you structured
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: this because it's j D, who's lonesome and single, who
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: wants more than anything to find love I mean jokingly.
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: The episode opens with him running drills on kissing because
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: it's been so long since he kissed anybody, and and
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: then seeing him seeing all these relationships in various stages,
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: in various you know, forms of of disarray, and then
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: it sort of bubbles up with the monologue at the
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: end where I just explode, like how the how the
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: fund did you? Guys don't realize how lucky you are
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: to be with someone well, because it's it's you almost
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: j D almost crosses a line though, you know what
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, He almost goes against the moral code. This
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: woman has a husband who's not in the ground yet
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: and still even though he's probably not gonna make it
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: through this, she uh, she needs to handle that first
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: and deal with all of that first before she goes
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: into a relationship. And she shows weakness and j D
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: almost pounces on it, you know what I mean. And
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: so I also think the blow up at the end
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: was you know, him realizing, holy sh it, I almost
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: went there, and these are right his it's his own
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: thing too. You're right, you're right, you're right. I never
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: even saw that. It's it's that's a good point down.
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: It's sort of his own, you know sometimes when like
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: you have your own conscience bubbling up and you don't
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: even know it. And he sort of explodes on everyone else.
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: Part of that monologue at the end, when he's just
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: berating everyone is his own frustration that he's got no
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: one and he's so alone and now all of a sudden,
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: here's this amazing woman who's so pretty and so into
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: him and so in on the joke and silly and funny,
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: and she's like his perfect dream girl, and and his
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: his conscience and his morals make him stop it. And
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: then they're all fighting, and he's like, you fuckers, don't
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: you realize how lucky you are to have someone I
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: don't think it was really good. Yeah, I wrote that down.
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: That's the It's an amazing blow up. Not only you're
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: acting at that moment, but also Okay, you do a
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: great job at it, and uh and and it's very
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: easy for the audience and our characters to have sympathy
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: for you after you have that moment, you know what
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: I mean. Um, but it's amazing how it was, how
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: it's presented. Also, it gets to a point where, you know,
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: the hero of our of our show almost becomes a villain,
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: and it's and stops himself from becoming that person, and
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: he's gonna you know, he's gonna trade. It comes up
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: again later on in the in the next You think
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: the audience would really think him as villainous? I mean,
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: wouldn't Yeah really, but don't you think there'd be a
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: certain percentage of the audience would be like, I get it,
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: I do it, I do it right. Well, that's the
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: dilemma I would you, would you or would you if somebody,
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: if somebody had somebody who was on the verge of
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: passing way but has not yet passed away, would you
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: let that person have the moment to grieve and and
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: move on or would you slide in at their weakest moment?
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: I think, But she asked him out and they're drinking.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: I love this argument. This is the argument that writers
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: want you guys to have. You guys know that like
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: so much. So is transporting me back one of the
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: things we did in this show when we wrote it,
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: because Donald is correct in that, you know, we wanted
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: people to go and to not want Zach to do
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: this and did not want j D to do this.
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: And the way that we got there was we're so
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: lucky we have a show of fantasies and that the
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: actor was good and it wasn't my pitch. But someone's
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: like for us to really be down on j D
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: doing this, the coma husband has to speak and has
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: to be alive in the fantasies, and the fact that
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: he actually was Jiman and the guy was good, and
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: that you seemed and you've felt his you know, anguish
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: and anger made it because I think if that guy
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: had never spoken and was just a lifeless extra in
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: a bed, you would have been like, j D should
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: go for it. Man, That dude has been like that
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: for a year. But the second he's that was especially
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: when he hands you a chart, you know, when you
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: walk in the next day and you're like, you know,
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: so that you know your conscience is killing you. You know.
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: To me, that's what made that show work, and it
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: wasn't wasn't my idea, but we we argued over exactly
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: what Donald's talking about. Well, it is a real testament
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: I gonna say, it's a real testament to what you
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: what you as a writer are saying about j D's character,
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: because he's got this woman who's being the aggressor on him,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: and they've had drinks and and she's like where are
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: we going? And he's like, I gotta stop this, and
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: but then he actually goes like, if you really want this,
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: I'll pick you up and run twelve miles with you
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: right now. But but I think it'd be best if
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: you waited, And she's like, I'll call you, and you know,
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: in his head he's like, fuck absolutely, you know, And
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: what makes what makes It's such a scrubs moment though,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: at the end of the blow up, when everybody's feeling
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: down and out about themselves in walks Nurse Roberts and
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: there's something Remember how she used to lean forward when
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: you would do that too. We're gonna go to break.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: We're gonna go to break. And then we have a
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: caller who's gonna be very excited that Uncle Bill is here.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: We will be right back after someone talks to you,
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: and we're back, and we're back and we're back. Come.
• 1:00:55

  Speaker 1: I think watched the series start to finish over thirty
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: times U since where two thousand four. That's that's almost
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: that's almost thirty times more than Donald seen him. So um,
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: it's it's my happy place. It's my husband's cheap cord
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: to my mood. So like, if I'm in a bad mood,
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: like you know, I'm on my period, and you know,
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: usually you need to give women chocolate and wine. No,
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: you just need to put on an episode of Straps.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, I hate it that he has, like
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: he knows this Achilles heel of mine. I hate it
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: so much. But he also uses it that he very
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: much ridiculous. I wish Donald wishes he could put on
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: Scrubs to calm down his wife when she's listen, she
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: don't even have to be on a paier. My wife
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: just don't like me. Man, I'm I'm now, I'm just convinced.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: She'm guessing today, I'm guessing today hasn't been the best
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: quarantine day the past ever, since school went back, it's
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: been tough. Well, I'm sure there's a lot of I'm
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: sure there's a lot of parents out there that can relate. Donald,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: who are who can empathize with you? You should know,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: nor Donald pointed out while you were waiting that my
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: wife is essentially playing herself on the show, so so
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: so for me, I don't think. I don't I don't think.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think popping on maybe exacted. Yeah, I don't
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: think popping on an episode, um, well character, and that's
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: how she's in your life. You just hit the jackpot,
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: my friend. You know you would think that. And it's
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: also very very scary. Uh, I mean, you know what,
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: you know what I always think, Bill, I think that,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: and you've said a version of this, but I think
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: it's kind of I mean, this is maybe stupid to say,
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: but the universe kind of gives you who you need,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: and you and Donald both have very tough Cristal I'll
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: give it capital t um wives. But they because you
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: guys have big personalities, they keep you in check and
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: sometimes that's very hard. But some wallflower who's gonna let
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: you do whatever you want is not gonna work for
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: for six months with you guys. I thought you were
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: saying that Donald I should be able to trade wives
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: and have it be cool with them. I thought that's
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: where you're going, Well, that's something you guys can work out,
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: because I don't think it would be cool with Christal.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: I think it'd be cool with Krista, but not for me,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: just for her. She's so in love with Donald. It's
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: so upsetting. Case it will be all right when a
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: case would be like, well we get a pool, Crystal, Yeah,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: case you'd be like, case you'd be like, I'll make
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: out a bill for a pool. Listen, I gotta tell
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: you that Kristen. Kristen does this thing that's so awkward
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: where we're we're in front of Bill and we're hugging,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: and you know, I give a standard hey, good to
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: see you hug and she's like, and Bill standing right
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: there and she's like, m don't, don't, don't, don't let
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: it go. So it's so awkward and she's doing it
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: just to funk with Bill and I'm sitting there with
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: like a red face. Don't okay, Crystal, let go. I
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: don't like it. I don't like it. Nor where are
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: you going from? I'm calling from India, girl friend, all
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: the way from India, baby. This podcast is truly global.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: Donald did able to get a mug. No, I actually
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: haven't gone around to ordering it yet. Also, stuff is
• 1:05:57

• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: whatever to reach us, So I'm just waiting for ship
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: to get up. I have to say. I have to
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: say on the merge front, this is a slight diggression.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: When MacDonald and I started this podcast, Um, the people
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: I heard said to us, and we were Donald and
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know podcast that much. I've listened to a few.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: He's listening to none. And we said, um, they said,
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: just you know, podcast listeners really like you know, some
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: basic merch a T shirt or a mug, because you're
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: you're building a community and it's sort of a club
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: and people like that stuff. And so Donald and I said, okay,
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: well we'll make merch. That's cool. You know. We we
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: were never in a rock band. Well, that'll be fun
• 1:06:33

• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: it up. It's and and uh and on the podcast,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: we've joked about all these funny merch ideas. We put
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: up a mug and a mask and they were gone
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: within like three hours. And Donald I have now been
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: texting like, we need to take this shilling more seriously
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: because people are not fucking around with fucking merch. They
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: want their merch. Donald, there is a lot you guys

• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for enjoying my podcast. It's really cool.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: I enjoy your podcast. But think I was talking. I
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: totally I totally imagine that. I totally imagine that in
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: season three of this podcast, Donald, I our guests. You guys, Hey,
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: as long as you guys tell me you can come
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: on whatever you want. Just let me know what's going
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: on what's here? So, so if we were to pick
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: up the show today, um X number of years after
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: it has gone off yet, and we had to pick
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: up from where the boys are today and the whole
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: class is today, But where do you see the show going.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: Do you think that they'll still be at Sacred Art
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: or do you think that Jade and Turf would go
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: into private practice together? Where do you see like the
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 1: whole show going? Like, just because there was so much
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: towards the end of season eight, I don't consider season
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: nine in actual season instead whatever whatever that was, there
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: was only one nor. There was only one main difference
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: was recalling a major differences hold up you or both
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: you and Bill were gone, so the magic was gone,
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 1: the Magic dream Team. I'm answering NER's question because I
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: want to hear Donald Zack's answer to this. So, No,
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: we were talking a lot because everybody always asked Donald
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: Zack and me if we're ever going to reboot the show.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: And what's really interesting is we've always had opportunities. But
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: everybody on this show a works constantly because they're also
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: super talented and be we see each other on our
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: own because we love each other. So you know, we
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: haven't always been driven to do. Even for me getting
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: to come on this show on Zack and Donald's podcast, Yes,
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 1: it's theirs. For me, it's such a co opportunity to
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: see two guys I love so Uh. Only recently we've
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: been starting talking about that and thinking about what it
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: would be and with the writers, here's the question for
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: you guys. I think that we think Zach and j
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: D and Turk would always be close, and we think
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: that they would always be of service and that those
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: two were doctors for life. But the one thing that
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: we always got caught up on is when you watch
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: the finale of season eight and Zack's voice j D's
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: voice over says, uh, and who's to say that all
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: these things wouldn't come true just this once? You know?
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: And then as writers we fight. Does that mean that
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: they all came true? Or does that mean that j
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: D is hoping they came true? So that's where we
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: always start. What do you guys think because we always
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: started to go, like we rebooted this, does that mean
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: that j D and Donald's kids ultimately are going to
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: end up together and married like they do in the show.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: Does that mean that those things actually happened, you know,
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: you know, so uh so I would because to me,
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: that's the trap. Do you think, Zach, do you think
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: that those things that we were showing in the finale
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: were real? Or do you think they were your dreams? Um,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: that's a question I never been asked, and I'm semi
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: embarrassed to admit that it gave me goose bumps on
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: my arm. But I don't hold anything back from your listeners. Um,
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: I've never been asked that question, Bill, and it's a
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: great question. And I as as as as you were
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: talking about it, I kind of answered it automatically and said, no,
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: that was j D's fantasy of how great life could be.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: And then I started thinking, and then I started thinking, like,
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: if you brought it back, it might be interesting to
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: show that things had not gone that way at all.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: And in fact, he's um, they they've all been separated,
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: and they were you know, you know, on this podcast
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: a lot we talked about how we're all living life
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 1: and and COVID aside happy people and doing the best
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: that we can, but we always talked about how we
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: missed the community of this wonderful thing that happened to us.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: For nearly a decade, and it made me think that
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: it might be interesting that the characters aren't together. They
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: don't have that special bond and there is some reason
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: that has to bring them together, and and and joy
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 1: and and community come out of bringing them back together.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: It's always what's messed us up? Broke? You go, Donald,
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: I I agree with you, Zach. I think I think
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 1: you're right. I think I think that's a better story.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: Jony Loves Chachi didn't go that long, you know what
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: I mean? That happy ending of of the kids being
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: the next generation of Turk and j D. But it's
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: a love it's the love story that you know, Turke
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: and j D's love story is a great love story,
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: but this is the actual love story where you know
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: their children are together. I think that's too happy. And
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: where do they fucking hate each other? That would be fine,
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: I think, I know. See. No, that's the problem is
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: that I feel like, you know, people wanted when j
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: D says, who's to say my fantasies couldn't come true? Justice?
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: Once that, you want to believe that next Christmas they
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: were all together, you know, and that they stayed friends.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: And I think people would be really not happy in
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: a in a bad way. If we came up on
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: a world that they were no longer in each other's lives.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: So I think that's the immediately, let me clarify what
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: I meant. Then I'm saying j D and Turk are
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: still tight, their kids just don't get along. You know
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: what I mean? Well, I was, I was saying that
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: we can be tight but separated, you know. Um, And
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: I think, Bill, you know this, Bill, you know this
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: better than anything. The audience will often say something two
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: things at once. I remember when I when we screen
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 1: tested Garden State. They were at the very end. We
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: had a focus group about twenty people. No you weren't
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 1: at this one, and they said, uh um, they said,
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: how many of you this is random strangers? And they said,
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: how many of you feel like the ending was a
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: little to pat? You know, the two lovers get together
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: in the airport. And I would say like seventy five
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: percent of the hands went up and they said, okay, um, honn,
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: how many of you want them to be together? Every
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: single hand went up. So as the writer, you're trying
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: and writer director, you're trying to balance, like you obviously
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 1: you want to you want to make the audience happy,
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 1: but you you also want to subvert what they think
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: they want a little bit, you know what I mean? Bill,
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: you can speak to that because this, well, look, I'm
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: as proud of the writing and directing I did on
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: Garden State as I am of my podcast. Do you
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: want to know? I want to know. I want to know.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: There another funny story, just just while I'm on the subject.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: So this is the this is the story that's a
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: total tangent. But in that same test screening, Now, when
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: when you when you test screen a movie in your director,
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 1: you have to go because you have to see where
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: the audience is laughing, where they're board all everything like that. Now,
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: you would never invite an actor who's in the movie
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: to the test screen because there's gonna be a focus
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: group aft and you never know what they're gonna say.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: They might say they don't like that actor. You would
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: never subject an actor to that. But as a reading director,
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: you have to be there. So there's a focus group
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: in the front row of the movie theater, twenty people
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 1: lined up. I'm six rows back with my baseball hat down.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: I don't want to spoil the sampling and have them
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: know that I'm there, and a girl raises her hand
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: and the moderator calls on on her and she goes, look,
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: kudos to Zach Braff for pulling this off. I just
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: don't find him attractive. And I'm sitting there. I'm sitting
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: there like fighting my fist, like this is the most
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: all the producers were in the in the road with me.
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: They all look over at me like, oh, ship, how
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: did that feel? And I'm like, not great. I'm gonna
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: that that right there is a hater, that's all that is. Look. Look,
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: she started the ship off with kudos to Zach Braff
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: pulling this off, meaning this ship is fired, dude, this
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: ship is fire. But he's an ugly dude. Bullshit, dude.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: You know what's funny though, this is I'm just thinking
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 1: this out loud in real time. But this is before
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: like social media went crazy, and this was sort of
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: a live anonymous troll because she doesn't know I'm in
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: the room and she's anonymously trooling me to the moderator.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: But I have to be there because I'm the director
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: of the fucking movie. Whatever, how do you guys fix
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: that in the movie? How do you fix it? There's
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: got more questions. First of all, I want to say,
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 1: you're such a fucking dick egg and be and be.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: We spent a hundred graund and lessened my nose. We
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: brought my We brought my nose. I thought it was
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 1: the green screen mat. Yeah, we we we we We
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: shot some angle is where my nose looks too big
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: and we wanted to please that one fucking woman. All right, sorry, no, no,
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, no problem, okay, Zach. My next question is
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: for you, um finally, So you've done a lot of
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: like platfalls and and a lot of like funny falls
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: throughout the lnge time of the show. Which is your
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: favorite to shoot and which is the one that you
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: thought came out best on screen? That's a good qument,
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: that's a good question. I'm gonna cheat a little nore
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: um okay. And and I mean, can I can the
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: scooter one on the Wizard of Oz? Count Bill, I'll
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: let you judge. Yes, yes, just just don't say the
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: string line one where you end up in the garbage stuff.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: You've said it like two many times on this podcast.
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: You know why nor because that I don't know if
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: you know this, but Zack directed that one do you
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: know this you don't even want to podcast religiously? And Nor,
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, Nor, you're very funny, first of all,
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: and I love the fact that you're you're such an
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: avid listener that you're like, please don't say the one
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: where you zip line because I've heard it not But
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna be so funny when we get
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: deeper into this this series, because we're only on season
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: two and she's one point five and people are already like,
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: please don't tell that story. I can't wait for that
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: episode anyway. Anyway, Nor, I do love that episode. But
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: I have to say the funniest it's technically not a pratfall,
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 1: I guess, but probably the funniest in Scrubs history. It's
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: what Bill always called our most expensive joke in the
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: history of Scrubs is when the scooter goes into the
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 1: endless puddle in the Wizard of Oz episode, where where
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: I clearly run into Julian the underground manateee who doesn't
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: exchange pleasantries um because um it involved digging two very
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 1: deep holes. They were very expensive to build because the
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: city demanded they'd be built to code for safety. Because
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: you can't just throw people in a hole that could collapse.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: And uh. And as a director of the episode, Uh,
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: we came up with the idea that it would be
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 1: a wonner, which means we did this elaborate thing where
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 1: the stunt man is riding the scooter with his with
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: his helmet on into the first puddle. Um, the camera
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: keeps panning. They weren't really connected underground obviously, but it
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: compands to the second pile where I was hiding out underwater.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: Um and and and and then one of the one
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: of the crew members, with a hammer as hard as
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: he could, banged on the asphalt so I could hear
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: it underground, which meant to pop up um because the
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: camera was on me. And Uh. It was very elaborate,
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 1: and I still think one of the funniest gags we
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: did on Scrubs. Bill, you might want to talk about it.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: That is so funny though, because Manatee seemed like the
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: happiest creatures in the the fact that the fact that
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 1: he wouldn't return pleasant tries, is it what a bit funnier?
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 1: He was rude? Wait, but Bill, talk about that from
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: the writer's room, because there's no way when you guys
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 1: thought of that, you could have possibly thought it was
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: going to come out as funny as it did, because
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 1: I think when we thought of it, the most fun
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: was Randall Winston, who's been on the show and is
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: you know, it's the closest thing I have to a
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: life partner besides my wife. He is the line producer
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 1: in charge of the budget. And he came to us
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: with the first estimates of how much cost Yes, yes,
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: look at you and uh he uh came to us
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: the first estimates of how much that joke cost, and
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: he said he said it to me in a way
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: that he obviously felt so unfortunately we won't do it.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: And in my head I was like, yeah, it feels
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: like we should still go for it. And that was
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: only that was only a product of youth, because now
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: I think I would look at it and go, oh man,
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: we could have I guess, I don't know, purchased a
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: small home to give to somebody to live in for
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: the price of a joke, you know, But that's that's
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: movie and TV production, is Zack. I want to give
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: you props because Nora asked one of my favorite falls
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: of all time. I randomly saw it when I was
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 1: searching for this episode. Do you remember what you did
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: when you were singing a song you made up, going
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: I'm feeling so good today. You know at that they'll
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: feel good, but nobody it's all so My favorite is
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: that Zack decided to click his heels and because that's
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: very hard to do, and then fall flat on his
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: face and get back up. And I've never seen that
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 1: was in a wonder as well, and it looks so
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: incredibly painful and it's so well done. I would vote
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: for that as well. I want you listeners to know
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: that I will do I would do anything to make
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 1: you guys laugh. I still go to the chiropractor as
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: often as I can, just because of all those years.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: Thank you, so I I do it all for my fans.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: Nor you gotta bring you gotta bring a question Donald's way.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna be honest with you. My favorite pratfall
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 1: is the one from the episode that Zack directed. I
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: hate to take because of what the dude does. It's
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 1: a stunt man that does it, but after he hits
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: the wall and how he shakes like a fish in
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: the air is one of the funniest things I've ever
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: I remember when he did it and laughed. I was
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: there the night that happened, and I remember laughing when
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 1: it happened, and then seeing it on camera and laughing
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: it again at it again. So that's that directed that,
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: by the way, I do have to simultaneously give a
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: shout out to to the many stuff man that that
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 1: the several stuff man that did it over the years,
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: because there were certain things I I definitely couldn't do
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 1: or wasn't allowed to do, and um, and these guys
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: were hilarious and Donald Donald was right. I was not
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: allowed to zip line into the wall and line but
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: you didn't zip line into zip line. I wasn't allowed
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: to nail the wall. What you also weren't allowed to
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: drive an actual scooter that had to be weighted down
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: with lead so that you would stay underwater in the
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: first puddle while we went over to the next puddle
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: and you came up. Think about that that stuntman had
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: to hold his breath for the whole shot, for that
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: whole shot, Yeah, because he had to go under with
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 1: the scooter and stay under No, well, technically, Bill, we
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: panned off of him and then he could, yeah, but
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: not right away. Zach, not right away. But I have
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 1: to say not to toot my own director horn, but
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 1: how many directors are directing from underwater in a puddle
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 1: where you can only here with a hammer on asphalts?
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, nor um um, sure we have another?
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 1: Should we give her one more? I have what I
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 1: have one more question? This one is predominant because I've
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 1: always wondered this at what, like I said of wort
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: Up so many times, and I wanted to get perspective
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 1: on this. Do you wish that your character had a
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 1: longer run as a single on the show instead of
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 1: getting into a committed relationship right off the Yes, yes, yes, yes,
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: for you so much. Yes, um, you know I love
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: I love that Donald has tiptoed around it. And Nora
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: is just like, come on, buddy, be on, come on.
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 1: Is a beautiful woman. And the connection that she and
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: I have, the chemistry that she and I have is
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: by far the best chemistry I've ever had with any
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 1: female on on screen, by far. I can, I can
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: go down the list, and nobody has ever been on
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: the level that Judy and I were on Uh, Comma, comma, comma.
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 1: I do, however, wish that Turk was a single for
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: a little bit by the one and to at least
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: season one and two, it was a proct No, I
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 1: believe it was a product of youth. And I'll say
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: all the same caveats because Judy is so good on
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 1: the show and so funny and talented. But I remember,
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: and I might be making this up in my head,
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: but I remember as writers telling Judy early on that
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 1: Turk and Carla we're gonna be together for the run
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: of the show, and her being like, Oh, that's gonna
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 1: be cool to have a steady relationship, to be the
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: ones that ground it, to explore what that means, to meet,
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: get married, stay together, have children, to follow that whole arc.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 1: And Donald, who was a young man at the time,
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: I do remember kind of telling you that and you're
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: being like, h really, as Amy Smart walks by, like morning,
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 1: Donald was funny? Um? All right? Now, Now, now you
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 1: know we have this new segment, since you're an avid
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 1: fan of the podcast, where uh and Bill is going
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 1: to join us for the first time for a new
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 1: segment called fix your Life. Nor It's time to fix
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: your life? All right? Nor? How can we fix your life? Bigger? Small?
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 1: We're gonna do it right now. You don't need to
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: pay for a therapist. You don't need to pay for
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 1: a handy man. We got it. Okay. My cat utterly
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 1: scratches me a lot for no reason, especially at night,
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: especial if I haven't fall asleep by his bedtime. How
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 1: they get him stop doing that? Okay, I can tell
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 1: you this one real quick. All right, this is this
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 1: is this is been a great episode to fix your life.
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 1: You're welcome. Nor as someone is not a cat person
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 1: and it's allergic to cats, just get rid of the
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 1: cat u Nor. I don't know too much about cats.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 1: I gotta be honest. I'm more of a dog person,
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 1: and i've I've I've raised a couple of puppies now,
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 1: so I have some experience with puppies. I do know.
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 1: Have you tried now with with puppies. There's a canned
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 1: air thing that they hate. If you do that canned
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 1: air noise, They're like, I will never do what you
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 1: what I just did again if you just promise not
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: to make that can so I would try canned air.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 1: Another thing is a water gun. Um you can sometimes
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: I don't. Most most pets do not like getting blasted
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 1: with the water gun to the face. Also, there's uh,
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, we've we've made jokes about everything on Scrubs,
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 1: but there's also this one episode that we did in
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 1: which Zach goes down a zip line and I think
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 1: he directed that one. That because now I'm going to
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: be really in my head about about mentioning that episode.
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, I love it, I love it. My only
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: thing is that I just didn't want you to say
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 1: that that was your best. Okay, yeah, exactly. I truly
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: believe that if you want to make it so the
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: cat stop scratching you, you gotta get rid of that cat.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: Donald is joking on behalf of pet lovers everywhere. You're
• 1:32:01

• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: been on here for that I gotten to be a
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: part of. They're all so awesome that she was amazing
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: by the way she she not only was she just fun.
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: But she knew the show so well that she was
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: like she was like saying, please don't reference that episode
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: yet again, which which episode, you guys. It was a
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 1: very special episode for me because I don't know if
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 1: you know this, but it was the first time I
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: got to direct. Um. All right, um, hey, Bill, I
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: know that you don't control the movement of the background.
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: That's up to the assistant directors. But I just wanted
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 1: you to know that in serving as the pharmacists, he's
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 1: the he's behind the pharmacists counter being the pharmacist. And
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 1: I don't recall hearing the Beard was the pharmacist. No, no, no,
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 1: we did. We did. I mean we cut it, but
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: we did some things that he had to cover for
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: the pharmacist. We didn't that Just the one that made
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: me the saddest was I think I went back and
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: watched some guy mopping the air because of you guys,
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 1: really upset man. And also Bill beard Fusse was also
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: a patient. Reason like Beard Fusse was like the go
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: to for the E d s to be like, uh,
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: it's funny that the guy was a patient Beard Fas say,
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: And now I I was drawn to the background going, Hey,
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 1: Jeff Stevenson is not the pharmacists guys. Okay, he's Dr
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 1: beard Face. And as you know, by the way, didn't
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 1: ever did anybody did give you pause that his name
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 1: was beard to say, which he's a smart guy, he
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 1: would read it his beard face, and yet he still
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: chose to have such a big beard. I just think, well,
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: you're gonna shave it after you gave him a character. Dude,
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 1: you're if in real life your name was beard Face,
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: I would think that you would be very careful about
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 1: not having a beard. That's what always confused me about
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: that character. Um, I have to say one of the
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 1: hardest I've left in a couple episodes. I don't know
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: if I'm just giddy tonight or what, but when Ralphie
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 1: pukes in the elevator on Kelso and all you hear
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 1: is Kelso coo, good god, the oh you want to know?
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 1: You want to know a joke piece of trivia, This
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 1: will so And it's the last little show reference I
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: had other than I thought you. By the way, we
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 1: always give props to Sarah was great in this, Judy,
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 1: Johnny C. Christop, but I really did think Donald Zack
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 1: was fun to come on here for this one, because
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 1: you Tube both slayed it comedically in this episode. I
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 1: really thought so. Um and since I still since I
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: need your approval no matter how old I get. UM,
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 1: that means a lot to me. I mean, it's sincerely.
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 1: You guys were both funny as as all get out. Uh,
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: the last bit of trivias. So comedy writers always get
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 1: stuck when they think they're stealing jokes from from themselves
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: or jokes that they've written before. And there was one
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 1: um in this show that because or a rowdy exists
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 1: because I saw somebody had a dead stuffed dog when
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: I was younger. I had also written about a dead
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 1: animal joke on Spin City, which was Richard Kind's character says,
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: because they're going to a morgue to try and get
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 1: a dead cat because for some weird episode and he
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 1: he he says, Uh, turns out, um, you know it's weird.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: I went there and we got it. We put in
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: the car and sneeze. It all turns out I'm not
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: allergic to dead cats. And then Mike Fox says, well,
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: the Mike Fox says, well, then you should definitely get one,
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 1: and uh, and then on this show we then decided
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 1: we thought about it for a long time. That Amy Smart,
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 1: do you know the joke I'm talking about Zack that?
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 1: She says, Perhaps you remember I came finished the story.
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 1: The joke doesn't get paid off because Casey's there, forget it.
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: Casey carbs in the building the joke, and this one
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: is Amy Smart says, perhaps he smells my dead dog.
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 1: So we're also living in a word. You're back, bring
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: it back. I care more about cut that out, cut
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 1: that out. Thunder supplause, Dan thundersupplause, Ladies and gentlemen. I
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 1: want you to finally meet the Casey com right. Hi guys, Hi, Hi,

• 1:37:59

• 1:38:00

• 1:38:03
  Speaker 1: Will I will? This is what a mom slash housekeeper
• 1:38:09

• 1:38:24
  Speaker 1: the kids are excited to see their friends and their
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 1: new teachers. But I mean, I just came up here
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 1: to pee, and this is the first time I've pissed since.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 1: And I have my pajamas on, and Bell was saying
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 1: we should wife swap. Oh my god, what if Krista
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 1: could come into this house and and set this one straight? Does?
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 1: Donald said he was the first we've had. Donald said,
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 1: you're gonna make the decision based on having a pool
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 1: over here. He's like, she's gonna be like, there's a
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: pool over there. I've hit over for a few days.
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: They'll never get rid of me. I will do anything. WHOA, Alright, well,
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 1: this is what a joke to you by my Lanta.
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 1: All Right, I just wanted to say, hi, I'm being summoned.
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 1: I'm sure, Okay, we love you. We love you. So
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 1: nice to finally see you, guys. I know I'm excited.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 1: I think she probably gets listen to the podcast. Ever
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 1: I listened. I listened because you know what, Donald likes
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 1: to listen to it and make his edits on the
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 1: loudest volume possible in room of the house where we're
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: all sitting. Week casey. I don't listen to it all
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 1: the time either, but I'm gonna listen to the this
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 1: section of this one over and over and over. I
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 1: think it's good that you. I think it's good that
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 1: you specified that's Joel and that's Daniel, because um, we're
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 1: almost She had no idea what their names were. That's
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 1: why I said that because she does not watch, she
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 1: does not listen to the podcast, and she has not
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 1: ever seen an episode of Scrubs. I played an episode
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 1: of Scrubs once for her and she got teary eyed
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 1: at the end. She was like, Scrubs is like this.
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 1: If I would have known this, I would have been
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 1: watching all these years. Oh my god. Um. I wanted
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 1: to say that I really related to the idea of
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 1: the end monologue in this, about the idea of feeling
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 1: alone even at times when there's a ton of people around.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 1: I thought that was a moving bill, and I think
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 1: that there's a lot of people who can who are listening,
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 1: who can probably relate to that. Sometimes you're surrounded by
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 1: people and you still feel super alone and and and lonesome,
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 1: and you're like, what's wrong with me? And and I
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 1: think you articulated well, especially with the the visual effect,
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 1: just sort of a call back to the pilot um
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 1: that Adam Bernstein directed as well, with people moving all
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 1: around j D and he's just they're feeling so lonesome,
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 1: and um, I just thought, I don't know it, just
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 1: thought it struck me this time is as an emotion
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 1: and a feeling that a lot of people can probably
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: relate to and think that they were the only one
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 1: feeling it. Well, look, man, you you hit on two things.
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 1: One is always I'm glad you gave a shout out
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 1: to Adam Bernstein because he helped create the look of
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 1: the show, and he intentionally wanted to do a throwback
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 1: to the pilot where where the pilot you were overwhelmed
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 1: and off on your own and the world was zipping
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 1: around around you, and this one you're lonely even though
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 1: you're comfortable in that world and all those people are
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 1: around you, and he intentionally pitched that to do it,
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 1: you know, kind of the same thing twice in a
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 1: way that I thought was really cool. But more I
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 1: was struck by the emotion of this episode, not in
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 1: terms of being a couple, but in terms of we
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: often talk about in the world right now, but you know,
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 1: empathy is a big thing, okay, And one of the
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 1: things that comedy writers will often talk about is joking around.
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 1: We call it don't know how good you got it disease,
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 1: you know, which is Hey, if you have a job,
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 1: every job, even being a comedy writer, which is ultimately
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 1: the greatest gig in the world and I would do
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 1: it for free. Um, you still sometimes have crazy hours
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 1: and tough situations, and you'll find yourself with your co
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 1: workers complaining and saying like, oh, this part of this
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 1: job sucks, this part's annoying, this part sucks. But then
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 1: you don't ever take a moment to go holy crap,
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: especially right now. There's a lot of comedy writers that
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 1: we get to keep working, you know what I mean,
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 1: because we're writing shows and trying to get ready in
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 1: case the world ever opens up again, and you don't
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 1: always take the time to be empathetic towards the people
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 1: that don't have it as good as you, you know,
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: And that's not only true when it comes to having
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 1: found the person you're meant to be with, but right
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 1: now in the world, man, I don't know why this
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 1: episode touched me so much. I feel like if people
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 1: could be a little more empathetic as to what other
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 1: folks are going through out there, that things would be
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 1: just a lot clearer and a lot more simple, you know,
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 1: And uh, that's why I don't. I rarely get choked
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 1: up at these episodes, but I got choked up at
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: this one because you know, what I was hearing j
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 1: D say was you fuckers are so caught up in
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 1: your own pettiness right now. You're not really thinking about
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 1: how hard it is for other people. And you guys
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 1: do that all the time on this show and empathize
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 1: and think about what's going on with them. So it
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 1: really touched me. Yeah, and I just want to see.
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 1: The last thing is that, you know, I think this
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 1: is one of the only times I explained spiking the
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 1: lens to UM to the audience about how you know,
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 1: it's usually unless it's done on purpose, like Ferris Bueller's
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 1: Day Off where the characters talking to you, it's usually
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: something that's edited around because you know, we say there's
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 1: this invisible fourth wall that's the camera, and we don't
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 1: we we don't look into the lens because that's the
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 1: invisible fourth wall. Um. This, I believe is one of
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 1: the only times where you put me looking directly at
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 1: the audience. And I remember shooting this. I was I
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 1: watched it, and I remember, like, you know, we did
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 1: a bunch of takes where I didn't look I just
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 1: kind of looked off sad, and then I think I
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 1: said to Adam, like, let me just do one just
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 1: for the funk of it, where I just looked directly
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 1: in the lens, And I was so happy you chose it, Bill,
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 1: because I it almost felt to me like at this
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 1: point in the run of the show, at to eighteen
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 1: of the show, it almost I don't know, I'm maybe
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 1: I'm reading too much into it, but my interpretation was like,
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 1: I'm checking in with you, the audience. I've been telling
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 1: you this story for a season and eight plus eighteen episodes,
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 1: and I'm really fucking lonesome right now, and I'm doing
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 1: the best that I can. I can't do this all
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 1: on my own, quote unquote, but I'm I'm I'm looking
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: at you. I don't know, and you never did it.
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 1: I don't think we ever again. But I thought it
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 1: was very I thought it was very moving, and it's
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 1: me so it's bizarre, but I but I was a
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: bit caught off guard by because it's not a technique
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 1: you ever did again. We ever did again. No, it
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be you're all like me, because I
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 1: think the world is filled of I think it's very
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 1: hard to be a single person, uh, and around married
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 1: couples and happy couples that are bitching and moaning about
• 1:45:41
  Speaker 1: whatever trivial thing is making their great couple nous hard,
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And so it was definitely
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 1: an effort to say you're all. The other time we
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 1: did it, you guys might not remember, is the dumbest
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 1: joke ever, because we talked about spiking the lens. Was
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 1: we did an episode in which you said, it doesn't
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 1: really matter ter what you think. I'm really interested in
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 1: what America and you look directly at the cat camera,
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 1: and then we revealed a tailor on the other side
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 1: at the time guy that says it's not America, that's America. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 1: but yes, you are correct. By the way, it's funny
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 1: that um Donald and I always referenced Beverly Hills Cop
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 1: and uh, there's a there's a handful of times when
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 1: any Murphy looks directly in the lens, like are you
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 1: seeing this ship? And I think that in Beverly Hills
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 1: cop trading places. Yeah, I'd about to say it's not
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 1: Beverly Hills Cop is creating places. When the Mortimers say
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 1: to him, uh, it's pork bellies, which is used to
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 1: make bacon, which you might find in a bacon, lettuce
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 1: and tomato sandwich. Looked camel like. He looks like, what
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 1: doesn't he do it in Beverly Hills Cop or no, no, no, no.
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 1: Beverly Hills Cop is very much straight. He never breaks
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 1: the the fourth wall. In My favorite thing in the
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 1: world is in whenever you see a show or a
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 1: movie that has a kid that is six or under,
• 1:47:11
