  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 1:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, my handle is at Joel Monique on the twitters
• 1:18
  Speaker 6: and the Instagrams. And I was a writer before I
• 1:21
  Speaker 6: came to you guys, and I would do a lot
• 1:23
  Speaker 6: of critiquing of like television shows and movies. I think
• 1:28
  Speaker 6: my Watchmen interviews are probably one I'm most famous for.
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: Toronto International Film Festival just retweeted those yesterday. But yeah,
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: come talk to me about nerdy and political things.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: It's good times.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Well you're you're you're a Watchmen fan?
• 1:41
  Speaker 7: Oh fuck it?
• 1:42
  Speaker 6: From the graphic novel era, the TV show really killed it?
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: Did you not like the movie?
• 1:47
  Speaker 6: The movie was my introduction, and I find that it
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: has some things that are very intriguing and interesting about it,
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: but overall, I don't think it holds up to like
• 1:55
  Speaker 6: the quality that is the original graphic novel.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Right, the graphic novel has more.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: And I love the TV show Man. I thought that
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: was incredible and brilliant.
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: They want a Peabody this morning.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: And so relevant to today when you see these, when
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: you see what's a what's happening? In the news and
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: also like cops with their face mess on. I can't
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: help but think of watching The Watchmen. I was like, wow, yeah,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and I saw someone with an article that was like
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Watchman was just a few months too early or something
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: like that.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Someone, Yeah, they got it right, they got it right,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: they predicted it.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Listen, I would love to banter with you and tell
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: you how much I smell because I forgot to put
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: on deodorant and uh and I'm I'm glad that we're
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: on a zoom call. So you guys aren't offended, but
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: we got Neil Flynn sitting on all right.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Well, then hold on one second. How about this stories show?
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: We made about a bunch of.
• 2:51
  Speaker 8: The stories.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: So you know, I don't think that you deserve to
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: five six seven eight when you're this late.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: I did it already, so I know.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: But I just want to submit to the to the
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: to the to the to the Scrubs podcast rule book
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: that you are when you're this late. You don't get
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to five six seven eight, you're punished.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: When when did we get a rule book?
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: You know, when I was a kid, I'm going to camp.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I was so nerdy and this was back in a
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: day when they would let you do this. But on
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the on the school bus to camp, I would sit
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: in the front seat and as the bus as the
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: bus pulled in for each stop, the bus driver would
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: allow me to operate the mechanism that opened up the
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: school bus door, and I thought I was the coolest
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: mofo in the world as the door operator. Now wait,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: this is my point. Was that I got in trouble
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: one day at camp and the counselors told the bus
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: driver that I had been bad and I was not
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: allowed to operate rate the door that day, and I
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: was crushed. I was I sat and pouted, and I
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: just feel that that should be something like your punishment.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: You don't get to five six seven eight when you've
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: been naughty.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: But I already five six seven I know.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm just trying to lay down the rules. Maybe
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Joel can can start to make like a Bible of
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: sorts of the rules of the show.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, how old were you when all of this happened?
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: This was last year, and no, I don't know daycamp.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: How old you at day camp? Seven eight?
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Ship? Well, then yes, I can understand.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I was five six seven eight and I'm just kidding.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: All right, let's bring in Neil Flynn. Dan.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Push the button, Ladies and gentlemen give it up.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Four.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Hi Neil Flynn.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: He you fellas.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: How's it going excellent?
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: There?
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: He is there, Ishi, Neil, This is a Joel and
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: I think you met Dan briefly.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: Yes. I was teaching him about computers and things like that.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: It's so good to see you, man.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: It is good to see you too.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: Donald's literally in the closet. Good minute.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: I am literally in the closet.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: It started. It started Neil because it was it was
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: the best place for sound, because it had all his
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: clothes as a sound dampening thing. And then he realized
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: that he could hide from his family in there. So
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: he goes there sometimes even when we're not recording the podcast,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: to escape his his children.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: This is the this is the safest place in my house.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: My kids don't find my clothes amusing or interesting enough
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: to want to hang out in the closet, so.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: I can't say I ever found my father's clothes. Uh,
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: we are any Are any of your kids big enough
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: to wear your clothes? Now?
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: No?
• 5:48
  Speaker 7: I no?
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Thank good?
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: Well yeah, well, yeah, I have an eighteen year old
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: with us, but uh, he doesn't necessarily like the clothes
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: I wear. He's more into that supreme style and stuff
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: like that. Me personally, I you know, I've dumbed down
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: my gear a little bit and now I'm a golf
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: shirt and shorts kind of guy. And so what you
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: see behind me is a bunch of golf shirts and
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: then my shorts are over there.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: That Neil, that was your probably first and last tour
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: ever of Donald's clothes.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know you asked, but I do.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: I do remember.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: I do remember when my father's clothes became interesting to
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: me and I wanted to wear all of his gear.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: And I would go into my dad's closet and take
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: his shirts which were oversized for me, which at the
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: time was really cool. And he had like a bunch
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: of designer things that I didn't you know, he had
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: like back in the day when jabebou was really popular
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: or you know, shirts like that, and I remember going
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: in his.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Closet, TAINI do you remember those?
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: No, I remember, No, I.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Was like the sweatsuit of sweatsuit okay, but.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I remember going in his closet and taking a really
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: expense shirt and wearing it outside and ripping it and
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: being like, oh shit, my dad's gonna kill me. My
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: dad's gonna kill me, and having to tell him. And
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: my dad didn't come home all the time, right, So
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: my dad would leave in the morning and then come
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: back maybe you know, three four days later.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: You know, that's just how my dad rolls. And and.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I remember having to wait for him to come home
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: to tell him that I ripped one of his really
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: expensive shirts. And he wasn't too beat up about it,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: but I remember the fear. For three days I had
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: to wait, and you know, my mom being like, he's
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: gonna kick your ass and me.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Being like God, and then.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Find you ripped the shirt.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Like playing playing something stupid, like we were playing a
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: on a jungle gym and we would play tag where
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: you couldn't touch the ground, sure, and the jungle gym
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: was huge, was big enough for you to jump from
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: you know, the slide to you know, uh, one of
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: the houses or wooden houses or some.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Shit or plant. You were a kid, yeah, I was a.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Kid wearing my dad's oversized, expensive shirt.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: And what made you think, like, you know what I'm
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: gonna rock to the jungle gym today is Dad's expensive shirt.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: I just, you know, because everybody was wearing jabot, you
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: know what I mean. And I thought, well, if he
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: has a shirt, I can go outside and I'll have
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: this really crisp and it was like and it was
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: fucked up to the fucked up thing was it was
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: like in plastic and it just come from the cleaners
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: and stuff.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: I kind of knew. I kind of knew, like dude.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Took the plastic off to.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: And I made a mistake.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: It's one of those things like I watched my kids
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: now do to ship where it's like, what were you thinking,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: why would why would you even do something like that?
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: And their answer is, I don't know.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: And that was my answer to I don't know, ye
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: just impulsive, impulsive.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: My sister when I went close shopping, I remember I
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: was in like fourth grade and it was the height
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: of I don't know if you remember guest jeans. It
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: was like the height of guest jeans and for mostly
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: for women. I think at the time, I'm guessing because
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: my sister convinced me and my mom that I should
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: wear guest jeans as well in fourth grade and they
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: were very uh, you could always tell they were guest
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: jeans because they had a triangle on the on the back,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: on the back, jean pocket. So I thought, Okay, you know,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: I'm not much of a style guy. I'm more of
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: a sweatpants T shirt kid, but you know, okay, I'll
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: try this out for a full day. I was bullied
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: by essentially the entire school. Children of all ages and
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: grades came by to point and laugh at me and
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: my guest jeans.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: Because they were considered like girl jeans or.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: A girl a girl and expensive. I think they were.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: They were like I remember them being like fifty bucks
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: or maybe one hundred bucks whatever whatever they I mean,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: it was like too expensive for a kid to have anyway,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: but I think probably fourth gradsigner. I don't know, I
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: don't know. I regret it to this day. I when
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Donald started talking about his story, I felt the pain
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: in my heart from literally the It's like it's like
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: it's like what's his name on on on the Simpsons going.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: It was literally that for a full day of school.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: So then I go home, I go home in tears
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and I tell my mom, like, I hate these jeans.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: I'm so everyone made funny me all day long. I
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: fucking hate these jeans, and she was like, well, you
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: know we're gonna do Zach, those dream jeans are perfectly fine.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: We're gonna take my little stitch cutter and we're gonna
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: cut the triangle off off the pocket. Well she did that,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: and they still had the marking of what the triangle was.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, now you have some sort of knockoff guess jeans.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, but it's worse exactly, Neil. Now I'm wearing
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: black market guess gell. Neil, thank you for coming on.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: We Donald and I started started doing this silly little thing,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: and both of us when we post about it on
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Instagram and Twitter, I would say that like sixty percent
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: of the comments people are right, right, are when are
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: you having Neil Flynn on? So you are very beloved
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: by beloved or beloved by either one by the people
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: either one.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: It's like divisive and divisive. All of a sudden, divisive
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: became divisive because that's how Barack Obama pronounced it. Really yeah,
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: people say divisive. I had never heard it pronounced that
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: way before Obama said that.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, if Obama said it, yeah, now I'm
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: now I'm switching.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: I'm switching a few years a few years late.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: But I'm changing, switching it up, switching it up.
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: If he starts wearing Jbo's shirts, That's what I'm gonna
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: do too.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: He probably does wear guest jeans, though he's a stylish guy.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they're still in style anymore.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: I don't know if.
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure how big Guess is. I don't think
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Somewhere somebody the CEO of guesses like, we're still ahead,
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: We're still yeah.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: We're going to get Donald and I are gonna get
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: send guest Gene in the mail, because sometimes when we
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: mention things on here, we get sent in the mail.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: I got a care package from Omission. I have to
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: tell him, is Neil. It's really lame in Hollywood to say,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: but I don't eat gluten, and but I love beer.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: And so there's a really good pale ale called Omission,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: which I mentioned because we were all talking about beer.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: They sent me not only a beautiful care package of
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Omission beer, but an Omission backpack.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: I've yet to receive any of this.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: When you come to school in the backpack, I'm going
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: to make fun of you. You got a Mission bagpack.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: You're gonna be like, Zach, please tell me you're not
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: wearing a gluten free beer backpack.
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: I don't really even know what that is gluten, but
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: I think you can get away with not etene gluten
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: in Hollywood.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah you can. It's just when I you know, this
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: podcast has listened all over the world. Whenever I mentioned it,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: I cringe because I know people are like, oh, what
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: a Hollywood tool.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Not you know, I thought that sparkling water was universal.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: You go places in like Texas and you'll be like,
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: can I get.
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: Some sparkling water?
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: And they'll be like, we don't have that, say club soda.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Maybe I went to someplace and they were like, we
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: do have club soda.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Yes, what's the clubference between club soda and sparkling water?
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Does anybody know.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Club soda is carbon and sparkling water is sodium?
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: If I no, no, Neil knows.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: No, You're right, I have a cat. Okay, And of
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: course they listen when you're saying no, yeah, but he's
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: in my.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Oh you were saying no to the cat. I thought
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: you were. I thought you were heavily. I thought you
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: were very clearly opining.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: On Donald's no no, no no.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: And then I was waiting for you to go into
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: your explanation, but you never did.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: Don't try to give me that club soda story.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: All right, Wait, Joelle is letting us know. Club soda
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: is artificially infused with carbon and mineral salts. Similarly, seltzer
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: is artificially carbonated but generally does not contain any added minerals.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: Sparkling mineral water, on the other hand, is naturally carbonated
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: from a spring or well, how is something naturally carbonated?
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: I don't know, dude, carbon gets into it.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: I guess.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Well, that was a very thorough explanation, but I still
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: didn't understand it.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: I feel like you cussed and cut and pasted that
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: though from from She didn't.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Just freehand type that. She just got it off the web.
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: You know, speaking of places that don't have things. We're
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: in some backwoods plays touring with a show and stopped
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: it kind of a dairy queen type of thing, but
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: sort of in glove a forest for some reason. And
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: one of the girls with us, she's going to get
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: a cheeseburger. She says, what kind of cheese do you have?
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: I think this is somewhere in Michigan and the person
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: literally goes cheese. It's square, it's orange, and it's flat.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: That person went home and told her family, you wouldn't
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: believe what this girl asked me to do. Kind of cheese.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: It's it's cheese.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: So all right, Neil, I was gonna do it.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: You got no, you do it, You do it, you
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: do it?
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, go ahead. I was just gonna be.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: I was just gonna be like, I was just gonna
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: say this, Neil, You're one of the few people in
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: the history of television. There's like a handful of people
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: that went from a show that ran for eight years
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: to a show that ran for eleven year?
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: What did the middle of eleven nine to a nine year?
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Seventeen years?
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Seventeen years straight on television?
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: Man, I know?
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: And then actually and then actually, Knel, you went onto
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: another show right away, right, So you did eight and
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: then that one didn't last, right, But you did eighteen
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: years in a row on TV.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, that might be.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: A record that You've got to be on a very
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: short list.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: It has to be.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: But if there is, whatever the list is, however long
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: it is, I am the least famous person on it.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: That's not true.
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: I just agree. I disagree. No, that's true, But it's
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: just you know, I was trying for a long time
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: before Scrubs came along, and then I finally the door opened,
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: you know, and I got let into the party, and
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: luckily enough, I just stayed.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Now tell us Neil, that's a good segue into because
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: whenever we have the cast members on, we try and
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: we've all sort of told our stories of of how
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: he got on the show. And Bill sold a really
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: funny story about you, and which I'll let you tell
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: or your version of it, because he was talking about
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: how you initially read for Cox and and then when
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: he said you wanted to be the janitor, you said
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: something like, but I'll still have a stethoscope, right or something.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, Bill tends do embellish his story.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Oh really, yeah, over time, if you were if if
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: you've heard a Bill story like at the beginning, and
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: then what it's like in two years. It's it's like
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: the ultimate game of telephone. It's become something exaggerated.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: But yes, and I thought before, what kind of person
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: just takes his story and changes it improves it? Possibly
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: a comedy writer. It kind of makes sense.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: But Neil, what was going on for you before? Like
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: what were you up to before Scrubs? And then how
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: did you come to be on Scrubs?
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: Well, I can't just say.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: You had done a bunch of movies though in Chicago
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that.
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: Like small parts, small, nothing of any significance.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: But the baseball movie that you did, you were one
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: of the key players in that movie.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Rookie of the Year was.
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: Just correct, right right, And yeah, the out part in
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: Major League as well. I was doing baseball movies only,
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: you know, I went into not even read but years ago,
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: whenever they would have made eight men out. I somehow
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: got a chance to be one of the baseball players.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: And I went in and she said, so, do you
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: a baseball I said yeah. She said do you really
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: you know, like she pushed me. I said, well, it's
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: not like I could have been a pro, you know,
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: And I saw her face fall. She lost interest in me.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: I'm twenty five years old. If I could have been
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: a pro, i'd be a pro. And then I see
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: the movie and there's the baseball players. They're playing catch. Yeah,
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: it sounds like doing the movie throwing the ball back
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: and forth. We only got pros for this, you know. Anyway,
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: So I wasn't in that Baseball movie, but I was
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: just doing little parts of what E can get. I
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: was starting to get guest star on things a little bit,
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: and and then this came up. I actually, I feel
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: like I've told this story before. It Is it okay
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: to repeat yourself?
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Yes? Yeah, man, Our fans might not know it, and
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll love the story.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: Okay. I was doing guest stars on things, and whereas
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: the first half of my career i'd been kind of
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: a straight actor, kind of a drama leaning, drifted over
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: unto the comedy side, and thank goodness I did, because
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: that's where things opened up. I had done an episode
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: of Drew Carrey and Christa Miller was on that show,
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: and shortly afterwards friends of mine said that they're going
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: out to dinner with Chris Miller and her new husband,
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: who turns out was Bill Lawrence. And I said, years ago,
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: I met a Bill Lawrence. We played on the same
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: basketball team out here right before I left and went
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: back to Chicago, and it was the same guy, and
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: so we you know, I went to their house for
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: drinks or whatever, and then within a month or two
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: he had this show that he had created, and so
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: I got called in and I said, thanks for calling
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: me in. He said, I didn't. I didn't give him
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: your name. They because the same people that directed to
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Drew Carrey. I think cash scrubs.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: Anyways, so then I read Doctor Cox and he said
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: that was good. You're not going to get this part.
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: I already know who I'm going to give it to.
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: I said, oh, well, that's you know, fair enough, and
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: he says, but you want to read this. He hands
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: me two pages and it's the scene with the janitor
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: and JD at the door, and he goes, good, you
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: want to do that? Said sure, you know, it's a job.
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: As a job, that's all I've been doing. It's five
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: hundred bucks or whatever it is for the end of
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: the day. And then I think what was significant is
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: between doing the pilot and that's all I was promised
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: the janitor wasn't gonna do anything else. Bill came to
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: and saw an imp prov show that I did, and
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: he enjoyed it and learned I don't know that I
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: could think on my feet or whatever. And I think
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: this made all the difference that probably the first scene
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: of the next episode. When I show got picked up,
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: we rehearsed it. He goes, yeah, good, and then if
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: you think of something else, just throw it in do
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: a take like that. Or we would go for around
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: and rehearsal. We would say good, keep that remember. And
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: so that for me, considering it was a pretty small part.
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: That was that made all the differences. I got to
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: have such latitude.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: What was amazing for for me watching you was Bill's
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: respect for how understandably for how funny you were, because
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: you know, with everyone else, he would, you know, the
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: rule on Scrubs was kind of like, okay, you know,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: make sure you get it as written, and then if
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: you guys have time, you can you can mess around
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: a little bit, and and and and you know, and
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: and and and we all did that. We all would
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: would come up with stuff. But with Neil, Bill would
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: just be like, all right, Neil, you can make something
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: funnier than this, So what do you what do you
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: want to say? And invariably Neil would just come out
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: and sometimes they were long and like and and Bill
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: would put them in, but they were I mean, Neil,
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: I you know, all my stuff was with you. The
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: first season, and I just I don't think.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: I ever left with you.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Sorry, that's what I meant to say. I was just
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I'd never really worked with anyone like that. I never
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: worked I mean, I was so blown away by you
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: because I had never I mean it was my first
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: big job, obviously, but even in my other stuff I
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: had done, I had never worked with someone who could
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: think so quickly on their feet and would just be
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: adding stuff that was, with all due respect to Bill,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: even finnier than what was written on the page.
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: And Bill said, if it's funnier than what I wrote,
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: that's fine. People will think I wrote it. Yeah, So
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: he was fine with that.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: Ye.
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: Well, I appreciate that compliment. And it was a I think,
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: very rare situation at that unfolded the way it did.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: And when when that show ended and I went on
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: to the middle, I said, well, this is great. The
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: only the only bad part will be if they're sticklers
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: about the script, because I'm not used to that, and
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: they were, And I had a lot more to say. Right.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: That must have been so frustrating for you, because I mean,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: I just can't one thing about Bill. We always joke
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: about his ego and how competitive he is, but he
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: really always he was very open to people contributing. That's
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: not to say, you know, he was the editor ultimately,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: and he would decide what was in and what wasn't
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: and and sometimes we thought stuff was hilarious that he
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: wouldn't use it. But he was very open to everybody collaborating.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: And then it's like Neil said, he goes on to
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: another show and they're like, great, we just want you
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: to say exactly what's written, and you can't. You know,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: if I hear that story and I go, what were
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you thinking? I mean, you you contributed so much to
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: the humor of Scrubs. I just can't believe. It's like
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: not letting a racehorse run.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, the difference if it's a racehorse is
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: running around and someone says, okay, I can see that
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: you're very fast. This is a farm, we need you
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: to pull that plot running gets it. The difference is
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: the tone of the show Scrubs. Even though it had
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: it's nice, uh you know, it could turn on a
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: dime and be heartfelt and sincere in that. Other than that,
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: and much of it it wasn't very grounded. It was well,
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: all the fantas season. I mean it was very and
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: the janitor could have turned out to be a Martian. Okay, sure,
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: I guess sure. I was playing a family man in Indiana.
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: You can't just say crazy things.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Right right right where in One of your specialties was
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: just I remember that Bill told the story about you
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: getting the one thing you improve that he kept all
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: in about getting into a fight with a with a chicken.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: Do you remember that, Yeah, it was a duck. I
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: think a duck. I think I feel like that was
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: written or partly written or mostly written, and I might
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: have gone off a little bit, but I think.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: I think the start of it may have been. But
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: as I recall you, as you did so many times hilariously,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: would just go off with it, and so, you know
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: a lot of times we'd be like, this is hilarious.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know if Bill's gonna put this in the
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: show or not, but on set we're all fucking cracking up.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: And then and then it almost invariably you'd see the
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: episode cut together and it would be in there. I
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: remember one of my favorite I mean, you and I
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: had some I mean, I'm not just saying this because
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: you're here, man, I I genuinely think and no offense. Donald,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: I love you to death, but I thought, I genuinely
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: think you. You've probably made me laugh harder than anyone
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: and else on earth.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Well, wow, okay, then I remember I remember an episode
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: and they wound up changing the episode. But the storyline
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: between the two of you was about a piece of
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: fruit and that you had never tried before, that that
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: the janitor had never tried before. And the whole storyline
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: was you finally getting this fruit at the end of
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: the show and tasting the fruit, and and I don't
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: remember where it went after that, but I just remember
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: you doing a bunch of really funny things about fruit,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: and then they changed it to like a scooter or
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: some shit like that.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know what it was.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: Oh, you remember this. This reminds me yesterday because Zach
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: sent me an episode of this thing to listen with
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: John McGinley. Yeah, and it came up, what episode wasn't
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: the janitor in?
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: Was that the episode that is it cups?
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: Yes, I think I because there was an outtake of
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: me wiping out on a scooter coming in the front
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: door of the hospital, but that had never aired because
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: I was that was the first season, and I was
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: edited out of it, and that's the only time that happened.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I knew it. I knew I knew it.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: I knew I'll do as the worst memory in the world.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: Remembered something because.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: I thought the I thought the story was so funny.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: The fruit story was so funny, and it was like
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: a peach or a plump, and you kept improvising different
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: fruits when.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: You were telling that story. I have and I still
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: have no memory whatsoever of a fruit and a plot
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: line about fruit because I wasn't in it, so I
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: blocked it out of my SPIKEE Neil.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: One of my favorite I have two favorite moments that
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: always come to mind when I think of laughing with you.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: The first is in the Wizard of Oz episode when
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: you and I did this whole long riff about about
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: seeing a manatee under the hospital, and then you said,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: I said, is there some sort of underground canal system
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: or something? I think I I think I saw a
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: manatee And you said, was his name Julian? And then
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: I said, I don't know. We we didn't exchange pleasantries,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: and you go, that's Julian.
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: That was good.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: The writers though I don't know, no, no, that was
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: all me and you just being silly again. It was
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: one of those things where we were like, I don't
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: think this is ever going to be in the show,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: but we were just cracking each other up about there's
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: a manatee under the hospital and has a name, and
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: you you're familiar with his social behavior.
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: This is what I'm talking about being able to wing it. Yeah,
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: I couldn't have thrown that in in the middle. I
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: was working on Corey Mike. It was good. There's a
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: man he lives underground, and the other one.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: That yeah, you do, go ahead.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: It's uh, it's it's this.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: It's your finger thumb finger.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: If you guys want to watch on the on the
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Scrubs gag reel blipper reel that you can find on YouTube.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I forgot what season it is. But Neil the janitor
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: as wife had made me scrubs short shorts and and
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: he's like, look, I really want you to wear these
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: to work, and I'm like, I'm like, I'm I'm a
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I'm a doctor. I can't wear short shorts to work.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: A pair of scrubs cut off really high.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was so high like my balls would have
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: hung out of them. And then Neil goes, the good
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: Lord didn't bless my wife with all ten fingers. She
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: only has pointer on one hand and thumb pinky on
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: the other, meaning that that it had been really hard
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: for her to make these short shorts, and I was
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: disrespecting her. I didn't wear them anyway. I just couldn't
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: make it through. I could not make it through with
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: with Neil going pointer and thumb pinky.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: That's, by the way I life. That probably doesn't exist.
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: No, yeah, she didn't.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: She didn't exist because you get married at the end
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: of the at the end of the scy True.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: That's true. And Neil, you know, Neil, we've been joking
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: this first season. It's down like, you know, we haven't
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: seen these in twenty years, and as I'm sure you haven't.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: And you know Bill, you know one of the Bill
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: isms that he always says is, you know, I was
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: debating season one if the Janitor was just gonna be
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: a figment of JD's imagination. Well, every episode we go through,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: for the most part, we see little moments where the
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: janitor does interact with other people, and every time we
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: bring it up to Bill, We're like, so, yeah, you're
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: holding onto that.
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: But you know, you know in.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: This episode, the janitor, you know, for example, in this one,
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: he offers two baseball tickets. Sorry, Franklin god Better, who
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: who is one of our assistant directors, is playing the
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: the the actor who sees Neil with the two tickets
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: and says I'll go, and Neil's like, not you. And
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: it's like another example of like, okay, well then other
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: people will see the janitor. Bill.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: I watched that yesterday, that that was a moment that
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: was added to the script that wasn't in there. Yeah,
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: and that you part for Franklin.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: I think that might be the one of the only
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: times I mean you might.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Now he dressed up like the bunny. Remember Franklin dressed
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: up like a bunny.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: No, I'm not I'm not saying that Franklin wasn't in
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: the show more. I'm saying where it's a really funny
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: moment where Neil goes, uh, what do you want to
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: what do you want to go to a baseball game
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: and have popcorn? And then Gg walks away like stop
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: messing with me, and then he pulls the two tickets
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: out of his shirt. He's like the last time I
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: reached out and I was laughing out loud and going,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: do you think that's the only time in Scrubs history
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: that the janitor ever like made a genuine appeal to
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Jdy the hatchet?
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: You know what if watching that, I thought, I don't
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: think I played that right because I said it very sarcastically.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: So of course you walked away. You know, we want
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: to do go to a baseball game and we get up.
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: But I probably should have said, well, would you like
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: to go to a baseball game with me and we
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: can share popcorn? I mean, it's something that sounds a
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: little more sincere.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Right, But JD had to you know, it had to
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: be on the line because JD had to be like,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: stop fucking with me, roll his eyes and walk away, right.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: Or maybe the janitor just has no skill at offering
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: an invitation. They all come out very sarcasting, very sarcast right.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: Would you like to come to a party with me?
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: I guess would you marry me? Please?
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: So what was the troop that you were doing improv
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: with Neil that Bill saw you? Early in the early.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: Days, we were called beer shark mice and it was
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: at the Io West, which no longer exists a theater,
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: but we must have done it for as it turns out,
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: fifteen eighteen years something like that. It was crazy.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: We throw out the names real quick. Pete Honey, Dave Keckner,
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: Pat Finn, Mike Coleman, Paul Valancourt. I hope I didn't
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: forget anybody when I first moved out here, removed out
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: here after five years in Chicago. We had been doing
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: it out of theater in Chicago. Not the same group,
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: but all those individuals with different and he'd only put
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: just put a group together out here when they Sharon,
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: who owns it, opened up a branch out here, and
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: we all had a virtually nothing to do. Nobody's career
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: was rolling, and so that's what that's what we did
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: all the time. That was maybe in.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: And what was that? Was there a specific game or
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: that you guys would play or structure of your.
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: Improv Uh no, not really, but we didn't do games.
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: That's a different approach. It was. There's something called a
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: herald that is a long form. We would get up there,
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: take his yestion and go for half hour. Yeah, and
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: we didn't do that, but it was along those lines
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: to just take a suggestion and then the audience is done.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Particularly, that's amazing.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: You just rolled for half far. It was a good group,
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: and it was it's not necessarily dead now, but it
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: was great fun and a great thing to do, and
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: I enjoyed doing it. And then after a while sometimes
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: they still want to do a show, and I say,
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: you know, I'm closing in on sixty years old. I
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: don't think I was twenty five. I wasn't interested in
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: saying sixty year olds entertainment in any way.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, I have no doubt that you would sell out.
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: People love seeing you, and you were so good at it.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: I mean I remember thinking that when we're doing Scrubs,
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: that that just cracking up with the stuff you would
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: come up with and going out. I would love to
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: go see one of your improv shows. We may have
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: gone on when we were involved the no. I just
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: maybe he came with it when we were.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Doing when we were doing scrubs, Were you doing this
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: show too?
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: Were you doing the improv show?
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: I feel like I must have come once.
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: I don't think it did, because I didn't, you know,
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: feel strongly about this, But people had heard that this
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: was going on, and it went on for all the
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: years of the Scrubs, and so people would often I
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: don't know if they're just striking up a conversation or
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: being you know, they really meant it when you do
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: that show years what time it like for the literally
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: like for the fiftieth time, I'm saying to somebody, Saturday night,
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: eight o'clock, I owe theater, and as far as I recall,
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: no one ever came. So I got tired of being asked.
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean, I didn't end. I don't
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: need anybody to come, but the house's fully.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: I saw a video or something I saw.
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what we did. We saw a video. Bill
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: showed us a video.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: Maybe that's what it was. Bill was sort of was
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: showing us a video of you. And because I feel
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: like I have a somewhere in my brain memory.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: And there was you and somebody on stage and it
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: was like, uh, where you were a drill not a
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: drill sergeant, but something like that, where you were an
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: army and I just remember it a long time.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: It was you remember that improv from twenty years ago?
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: Right? Yeah, that's uh, no one ever. Maybe it's possible,
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: but pretty much you never remember. As seen, someone will say,
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: I shay you guys, everybody once you're re firement, and
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: I don't I remember that?
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: Shall we get into the show, So, Neil, what we
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: do is we just kind of talked through the episode
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: and point out things that made us laugh or or
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: or or just any thoughts we have. But we should
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: probably take a break, right, Joelle, I got a break, Neil.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: This is a real show. We have commercials and.
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: Shit, I know I heard. I'm very impressed.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, no joking around when it comes to being real, right, Donald,
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: I mean no, this is the real deal. This is
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: like a real radio show.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean a real podcast, a real podcast. Yeah, yeah,
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: that's how you want to.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: All right, tell the people we'll be right back.
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: Donald, you already did.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, we'll be right back. Alrighty, we're back. We're back
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: with Neil Flynn. Everybody the people spoke, they said Neil Flynn,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Bring on Neil Flynn, and we got him.
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: Has everybody else been here? You are?
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: No, Ken has not been on the Jenkins, But we've
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: had the other lead cast members.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we had Judy on, We've had Johnny on, We've
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: had Sarah on.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: We now have you on?
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: We had Bill on Christa, you know, speaking of Ken Jenkins.
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: I am just but you know when we started the show,
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: he was the old guy. Yeah without you, no offense,
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: but clearly yeah, that's how we thought of him. And
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: you even more than I because you're younger than I am.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: I'm almost that age.
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: You're almost the age.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: Yes, I'm months away. And I think Johnny ce' is
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: a little older than me, so I think he probably
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: is that age. Yeah.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: Wow, I haven't since.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen well.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: The last time I saw him was when we did
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: the uh the reunion thing. It looked great and he
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: looked amazing.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to get him to come on this.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: When we did some we had some sort of group
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: email about hey, do you guys want to do X,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Y or Z and and everyone was like sure, sure,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: suret you know, we we almost all always say yes
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: because it means we get to all get together and
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: have a drink and make each other laugh. And and
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Ken was like, I'm moving. I I've got a lot
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: going on. And I was like my feelings were I mean,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I know it wasn't personal, but I was on like, Ken,
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: you know you can you can take a couple of
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: hours off from moving and comes outde to us. But nah,
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: I got a lot going on.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: I got ship to do. It sounds it sounds like work.
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: I got shipped to do.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: And then and it was kind of a Kirk goodbye.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: It was like it was like very kelso it was like,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: but good to hear from you all.
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: I remember that. But I find it interesting that it
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: was an email and you've put a voice to it
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: of a grouchy to move to.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: The funny thing is about like people always ask you, like,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: what what people cast members are like? And I said
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: the most different from his character was Ken Jenkins, because
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: he was the sweetest man you ever met in your
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: whole life, and he was playing this you know, tough jerk.
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: Yes, And I noticed that on the episode that it
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: was early on obviously the first season, and everyone was
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: still a little bit one dimensional. I don't want to
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: say that's not exactly true, but Ken was. I'm like,
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: look how mean Ken is being? Like in the pilot
• 38:30
  Speaker 4: when he turned into a demon for a minute, he
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: was still in that mode of well guess what sport?
• 38:36
  Speaker 4: Nobody cares that sort of thing. By the end, he
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: was like this kindly old doddering man used to having
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: a nice ruffin Yeah.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: And also at the bar and the Bahamas. Like you know,
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: he began I think Bill finally, like evell one episode.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: Early on here in season one, we showed that back
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: back in the day used to write love song ungs
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: on the guitar to his wife. I think Bill was
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: beginning to plant seeds of him having a softer side.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: But you're right by the end of the season. By
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: the end of the show, he was a sweetheart or
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: more of a spearhart.
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: And uh like Ted was sort of his best friend,
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: wasn't he They were.
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: At the end of the show.
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, in this one he calls him Ned.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: He's still all these years that we assume that that
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: Ted has been working for him, he still doesn't know
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: his name. He calls him Ned.
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but that went away. I mean, yeah, they became
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: kind of buddies.
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: I found it very crazy.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: I thought it was crazy that Ted has been plotting
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: against kelso.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so long he's hired hit man.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: He's hired, right, He's like, I know a hitman. You
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: and I we can do it.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: That was a really funny part of this episode where
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: we have that long, uncomfortable laugh because he mentions that
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: he knows a guy who can end it all, and
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: then we have that long, uncomfortable laugh and then he's like, no, seriously.
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: Just one phone call.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: So that means that Sammy as Sam Ted, has found
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: a He's got a hit man ready to go whenever
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: the time is right.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: He just needs somebody to He needs somebody to be like, no,
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: you're right, we should kill this fucker.
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: He just needs it. Yeah, someone's second. The emotion it was,
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: I hadn't seen Sam's face since he passed away, and
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: it was nice, but you know, strange, see Sam.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, man, we've been we've been talking about that on
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: the podcast and and how obviously it's caused me to
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: look even closer at his work on the show and
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: just how incredibly funny he was. We recently just watched
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: an episode where he and Judy. I don't know if
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: you remember this one, Neil or he and Judy serenade
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: a patient and sing this beautiful harmony together and it
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: was so moving. I mean, obviously because he passed away,
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: but it just it just really it just really just
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: drove it home how how incredibly talented a guy he was.
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was his character added a nice came in handy.
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: You know, the so many shows that succeed, I think
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: build a world of supporting characters and that you can
• 41:11
  Speaker 4: go to or just like probably number one would be
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: The Simpsons. They have like a poster and there's two
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: hundred recognizable characters in that. Yeah. Of course, give me
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: thirty years and maybe I could do that too. With
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: a TV show, They've had a lot of time to
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: add characters. But Scrubbs did a good job of that.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know Bill, Bill always called him his assassins,
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: those people like you know Bob Condenen or Matt Winston
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: or or Phil Lewis who played hooge Rob Mashio who
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: became well Rob had a bigger part than those guys.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: But I mean just mean, like you know, think about
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: Phil Lewis who came on and would do I don't
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: know how many episodes he did total, but.
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: He's directing now.
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he's yeah, he's doing very well as a Yeah.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if if this happens to you, Donald,
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: but I'll be walking down the street and people say, hey,
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: love on the show. Who is crazy? And it's like
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: a little slogan about Phil Lewis's character, and he must
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: have done like a handful. I mean, that's the amount
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: of influence. Sorry, that's the amount of impact he had
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: on fans because they were just like they loved him
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: so much.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: Well, remember it started off as Turner and Hooch, where
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: Tom Hanks's brother came on as Turner and Phil Lewis
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: played Hooch and they had this whole little adventure that
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: they went on together as Turner and Hooch in the
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: hospital they got. Yeah, they somehow got paired together. One
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: of them was a medical doc and one of them
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: was a surgeon, and they would tag team a bunch
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: of patients, right, and if.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: He was a play elaborate way for the writers to
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: get a Turner and Hoo's shoke.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: It, right, But they got Tom Hanks's brother to play
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: the Turner character, just like in the movie. Right, And
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: then somehow it turned into this whole story with Phil
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: coming back as this crazy ass doctor. But when it
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: originally happens, the two of them are you know, he's
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: not crazy or anything like that. Then it turned into
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: it turned into us joking around like, oh.
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: Who just crazy? Who just so crazy. And then by
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: the end of it is not that he is genuinely crazy.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: People people love that, but no, no, no, not joking.
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: Who is fucking like dangerous?
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Like and then and then there was an episode
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: where you put like someone was it me? Or you
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: put bully on cubes in the shower head.
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, which funny y'all put in the shower
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: and we're sitting there shoying.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: Like he's like.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: Him with him with the crack lighter that goes like
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: you know, six.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: That's a very popular gift. I always use hooch with
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: like a six inch lighter flame.
• 43:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: By the way, I remember a funny thing about Tom
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: Hanks's brother who was on the show. He did the
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: voice for one of the toy story things, not not
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: the not the movies, but like I don't know if
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: it was like a book or or something. Yeah, something
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: that Tom Hanks couldn't be bothered to do, and he
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: he had a similar voice, so so he would just
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: throw him, you know, I guess being generous to his brother,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: like here, you do some of this stuff, and uh.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: And I just remember learning for the first time that
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: then you know that he that he did some of
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: the non movie stuff.
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: That's amazing.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: A little trivia for you out there, just.
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: A little trivia.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: Elliott is into some kinky stuff, right, I mean, I
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: just realized that this is a runner through the series.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: This episode opens up with her talking to Scott Foley
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: about being wanting to be called a bad girl, and
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: they're gonna go shopping or stop by her house for
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: a schoolgirl outfit. And then I sill started thinking about
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: all these times in the in the series where Elliott's
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: got some some some some kink. She likes to role play.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she likes it, the dirty stuff. She like the
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: dirty talk. I think that's even one of my lines
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: in the show. Oh she likeed the dirty talk this episode. No,
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: not in this episode, but like later on in the series,
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: I know, I say something.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: And then later on when she and Folly are making out,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: she's like say intercourse, like she's got these weird kings.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's that's I I yeah.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: I remember there was one where I was like an
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: apple thief. I had to be. I was a part
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: of one of their I don't know if that was
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: a fantasy or if it was real, but there.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: Was one where she climbed up on top of me
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: on on one of the on a surgical table.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a fantasy though, That was a fantasy.
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, of course, do.
• 45:23
  Speaker 5: You remember it was she had a nurse thing on
• 45:27
  Speaker 5: like a Red Cross things and they had to post
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: they had to change it to green because no, you
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: don't use the Red crosses.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: Oh that's funny.
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: That's a little bit of trivia.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: You can't have sex on a surgical table with the
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: Red Cross up. We're not going to approve that.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: But if you got the Green one, which is the
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: medical marijuana one, it's all good.
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: It's all good.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Now, it's funny. The Green Cross in the UK just
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: means pharmacy or normal pharmacy. And now that you live
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: in we live in California. For those of you who
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: don't have dispensaries, wherever you are, everywhere there's a medical dispensary,
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: recreational or or or medical, it's the Green Cross. So
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: it's funny. When I first moved and spent some time
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: in London, I was like, wow, they have a lot
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: of dispensary on every corner.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: I laughed out loud at Alma, Right, bring hey, let's
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: make this quick. I got tickets to bring in a
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: noise bringing the funk, and I don't want to miss
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: the noise.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: Loma.
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: She had a couple of good lines in that episode.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she really.
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: She really does nail it every time. No, like you, you're.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: Absolutely right about the cast of characters that came after
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: the Core seven.
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: It's like everyone always seemed to nail their jokes, you
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: know what I mean. And and and it's it's a
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know if Bill had a thing where it's like,
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: if you didn't nail the jokes, she didn't come back.
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: But that is kind of the thing.
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: If you're not funny, you're not coming back.
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: I would love to know the people that he had.
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: We don't want to We don't want him out.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: Of Oh, I'm not gonna put on this is conversation
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: to have with him one at another time.
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: But I would know.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: But I mean, you can know in your head there
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: were there were people that that could have easily what
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: happened with Neil is is the ultimate example. Neil Neil
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: was in the pilot and Bill was like, I'm making
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: this guy series regular. Whereas whereas there's people who did
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: one or two and he's like, all right, well it
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: was nice meeting you. What about you skipped something and
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: I wanted to talk to you about it. When when
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: Judy touches your belly and goes bink and who's she goes,
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: who's your new friend?
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: I didn't. I didn't. I didn't want to that.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: Oh you wanted to skip that?
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: I didn't want to skip it.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: But you know, I when I when I was watching
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: the show, I was like, and this is where my
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: eating habits changed, you know what I mean?
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: Like, but but I have a question because I think
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: it's just a story point because when they cut to
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: you later running with Johnny C and you're in the gym,
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: you look fit as hell. So this didn't come out
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: of the writers being like, oh, Donald's gained a few
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: did it?
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: Listen?
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: Didn't look like you had listen back then. I was
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy five pounds when we started the show, right,
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: I got up to one hundred and ninety pounds, and
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: everybody I could feel the you know, where my clothes
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: didn't fit the same and.
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: Everything like that season why this happen? Yeah?
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: Around season one, you know, you get comfortable when you're
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: working and stuff like that, and I remember thinking, you know, wow,
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: I guess I look big on camera now. And you know,
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: I remember dieting and doing all of these things right,
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: and at one point, I, you know, I guess I
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: gained some weight. But this was this became an issue
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: for me as time went on, where I didn't think
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: about weight up until scrubbs like, I didn't give a
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: shit about how I looked or how I was perceived.
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: I didn't, you know, I just I ate what I
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: wanted to and you know, I worked out a shit ton.
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: But then all of a sudden it became okay, no,
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: you have to work to maintain this weight for the
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: show or it's gonna be in the script.
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: And people, wait, so did anyone ever say anything to
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: you like you need to lose weight?
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: No?
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: But I once heard and I'm gonna call Sarah out
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: on this, but I once heard Sarah. You know, while
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: we were filming talking to a bunch of people like yo,
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: somebody hit me up on a chat line and was like, yo,
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: is Donald Faison on a Krispy Kreme diet?
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: And I was like yo.
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: And I remember being like, yeah, I don't want a
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: Krispy Kreme diet, but it gives a shit, dude.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: It's funny because the story of Turk in the show
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: is that doctors get so busy they don't have time
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: to exercise their stress eating, and it's kind of what
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: happened to you as an actor on the show. We
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: had crazy hours. There's a giant craft service table with donuts,
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: and you know.
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: And I love first of all, I love donuts. Let's
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: let's keep it one hundred, like, is that your favorite thing?
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: For my birthday, my wife bought me a donut machine.
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: Dude.
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: You think I'm fucking bullshitting. She went on Amazon and
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: got me a commercial grade donut making machine, dude.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: And I found that they go down like the little just.
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: Like at Krispy Kreme. And I was like, you got
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: that shit and she was like yeah. I was like,
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: we got to look at the dimensions on how big
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: this thing is. This shit's like fifty six inches, like
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: it's like a six foot whatever six feet is. It's
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: like a six foot long track and it makes donut.
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: It doesn't make like one donut at a time, it
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: makes like seven, It makes a dozen donuts at a
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: fucking time. Dude, and I'm like, holy shit. I even
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: cent her. I was like, babe, is there a way
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: that we can return this? And she was like yeah,
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: but it has to get here first.
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: Now I know me. Once it gets here, I'm gonna
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: make donuts on thathing.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: It hasn't come yet.
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: It hasn't come yet.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: Oh my god.
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: The way it happened was because I'm going through Amazon.
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: And you know how once you once you buy something
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: on Amazon, it hits you with if you like this,
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: if you since you bought this, you know.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: You might like this.
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: And I was like, hold up, why are all these
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: donut machines showing up?
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: Well, that's not gonna help you, diet, bro, if you
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: have a donut machine in your.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: House, I've come up with it.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: I've come up with an idea on what i want
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: to do with this with said donut machine, what I
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: am going to make Donnie's donuts. Okay, and I'm gonna
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: sell donuts to the masses. I'm gonna I'll sell about
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: you know, it makes like a dozen donuts at a time.
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: I'll sell I don't know, maybe five dozen donuts a day.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: Okay. The out of your front door.
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: Not out of the front door.
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: I'll do it on sets or something like that where
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: i'll you know, where I'll you know, if you have
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: a and you're.
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: Not gonna have to charity, you're just gonna pocket that money, right,
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: this is your side.
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah, man, I gotta pay for that donut machine.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: That shit costs a lot of money. I know my
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: wife bought it for me, but you know it comes
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: out of my motherfucking pocket.
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: Now, don't funny. I never realized until now. Is like
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: when you have a joint bank account with your wife
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: and or your partner whatever, and then give you like
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: a really expensive present, it is part of you, like U, Yeah,
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: but what the fuck? Yeah?
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: I'm sure my wife thinks that way too, Like how
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: much The first thing she says every time I buy something?
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: How much did it costs? Don't worry about it? Don't
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: worry about you know, don't you worry about it? I looked,
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: I got I had the opportunity to see how much
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: the donut machine costs, because.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to see the commercial doughnut machine in
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: your house.
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: When this is all said and done, I invite you
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: all over, come over. I'll make donuts for you.
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: All right, well, I didn't realize it was a sore
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: spot for you, and uh so, But anyway, it was
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: written in the script that Turk has gained some pounds.
• 52:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: Well it turns out that Turk gets diabetes too because
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: of his eating habits, and you know, me like yeah,
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: like uh yeah, later on Turk gets diabetes.
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: Literally my diabetes, my diabetes.
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: But I remember thinking, you know, your real life would
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: somehow wind it like I don't have diabetes, but your
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: real life would somehow wind its way up into the script,
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And I remember I started
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: I was losing my hair at a very young age,
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: and Bill wrote into the script the reason why Turk
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: doesn't grow his hair out is because it's patchy.
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: And I remember being like, oh, hold.
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: On, I just on your head.
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: Not so much in the front, not so much on
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: the front, but like on the sides.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: He just has a big, big, receding hairline. But it
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: looks good anyway. I like the way it looks. But
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: you just made me think you could do a mohawk,
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: which would be cool.
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: It would be like really thin in the front and
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: then it would get really thick in the back though,
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: which was not really the dopest.
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: Mohawk on the plant.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: But anyway, I remember being I remember him doing that
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: and being like, wait, hold on a second, Bill thinks
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: I can't grow hair, and I loved not legitim.
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: So there's like a there's.
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: Like six episodes where Turk has a full head of hair,
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: just because I was like, there's no way I'm gonna
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: let anybody think that I can't grow noith Like it
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: became personal at some points, and this was one of
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: those moments with the donut where it was like, when
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: I was watching, I was like in this that I
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: think this is where it all went down where I
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: started to realize, oh, I have to be in a
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: certain shape for things. I have to look a certain
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: way because before that I didn't care about it and
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: I was still working right.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: Well, don't you feel that way now?
• 54:20
  Speaker 4: Though?
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: Still when you when you get jobs that like when
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: you did when you were on imergions for a year,
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: did you feel like that you wanted to be in
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: good shape for the camera.
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: No, I just wanted to look fresh in the face
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: for camera, Like these are things that I've like, I've
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: learned that my drinking habits and my marijuana habits have
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: made it so that, you know, if I don't take
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: time off from it, you can see it in my face,
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean. I look at pictures at
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: us when we were kids, and we and when we
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: would go to the parties and everything like that, and
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: we'd drink at the parties, and you could literally see
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: in our faces and pictures.
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, those guys are fucking wasted.
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: And as I've gotten older, that's lasted much longer than it.
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: If I drink on Tuesday, you know, I gotta wait
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: until like Friday, until it's all gone out of my
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: out of my face, so I have, you know, real
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: big bags under my eyes. And same thing with smoking.
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: So when I went and did Emergence, I cut out
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: all booze and alcohol for for for a long period
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: of time. I mean boos in marijuana for a long
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: period of time.
• 55:24
  Speaker 4: And I don't know what it is, egent.
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: No one I did, No one didn't, no, no one
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: watched it.
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: It didn't emerge, it did.
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: It didn't emerge the way the way I wanted to.
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: You know, Neil, both Donald and I, as you know,
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: because you helped me with some press which I really appreciate.
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: As you know, Donald and I both had ABC shows,
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: and unlike The Middle, they both completely bombed.
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they didn't make it.
• 55:48
  Speaker 4: Was it?
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: The Middle was an ABC show?
• 55:50
  Speaker 4: Right? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah?
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: Was it? ABC Studios? Also Born and Brothers Warner Brothers,
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: Warner Brothers for ABC.
• 55:56
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: We were ABC for NBC or originally and NBC was like, no,
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: We're going to pass on it, and ABC was like, oh,
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: well we'll pick it up and we went a full season.
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: And are you still sad about it? How are you
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: feeling about it?
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: I'm fine. I you know, I how long?
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: How long? Like how long do you pout about something
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: like that? Well, like I have bad news, I think
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: I pout for like a few days and I'm like,
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: all right, fuge it.
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't pout that long about this one.
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: I loved the show, and I loved the cast members,
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: and I loved working with everyone.
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: But it was in Jersey and.
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: Not that I have something not that I have something
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: wrong with Jersey, but coming out of a pandemic and
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: going back to work in New Jersey and leaving.
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: On behalf of the Garden State. I think the point
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: is that you didn't want to be separated from your family.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: Wasn't that like let me if you, if you let
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: me finish coming out of a pandemic and going back
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: to Jersey, which I had a great time in Jersey
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: and I love Jersey and leaving my kids back in
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles again, it would fuck them up, you know.
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: What I mean?
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: I understand that I wouldn't. I wouldn't want to uh
• 57:08
  Speaker 4: do a show in another state. Maybe the time will come,
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: but I think I don't.
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: I agree, Neil, I I wouldn't. I would do a
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: film obviously anywhere, but I wouldn't sign on. I don't think,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: and I mean I'll mark mark my words. I'm sure
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: there'll be an occasion where I might change my mind,
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: but right now I think to commit long term to something,
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: it would be New York or LA where where I'm
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: based and I have you know, and I'm I'm like Donald,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: I don't have kids yet, but I'm still in a
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: place where I don't. I don't want to go move
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: to to Stad where I always choose DoD as my
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: random city. It's it's a I believe it's a ski
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: town in Switzerland.
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: It's straight out of coming a trading place places where
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: Dan Ackroyd's at the pawn shop trying to sell the
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: watch and the dude's like fifty bucks. He's like fifty bucks. No,
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: this is a such and such. It tells time in
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: New York, London, La and Stad.
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: I think it's like the Aspen of the Alps. It's
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: like a fancy ski town, which, by by the way,
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: it was a horrible example for my story because I
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: should have picked a place no one wants to live.
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: Maybe I would like to live in the Aspen of
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: the Alps. Are going to take a quick break and
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: then Neil, we take a guest with the show. Who's
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: gonna have an awesome question for one of us? I'll
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: bet we watch how with that?
• 58:29
  Speaker 4: And I like that theme. By the way, it's very churchy.
• 58:40
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yes, yes, we speaking of churchie. Dude, do you
• 58:45
  Speaker 9: remember the church episode where we did it in the
• 58:47

  Speaker 4: Hat and really along with.

• 59:07
  Speaker 3: Is in the house.
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: That's Samuel Center. Joelle. Do you have any special introduction
• 59:12

• 59:45
  Speaker 1: You know when I first saw the spit guard was
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: in the We Are the World music video, and that's
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: where I also sold that you were supposed to hold
• 59:53

• 59:56
  Speaker 1: to hear the harmonies when.
• 59:57

  Speaker 7: Right y, Mike.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: Mike didn't want to mess up the freaking right, Neil.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: All the people that knew they were shooting a video
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: were like, you know what, man, But if you just
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: believe we should do a Donald, we should do an
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: episode of this where we recreate the video and we
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: each take turns playing different characters in the song.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, man, I fucking did that as a kid.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: I used to do that as a kid. I could
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: do it as an adults.

  Speaker 1: Thanks for coming on, everybody. Can you play the music

  Speaker 1: that drives it off?
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: No?
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, you've got a real question.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 7: Go ahead, I do I have a real question for you.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 7: First of all, thank you for all of the years
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 7: of entertainment. This is such a thrill to meet you guys. No,
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 7: it's incredible. Thank you. So in terms of entertainment, you
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 7: guys have been there for You've been in the business
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 7: for so long and just seeing how things change, and
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 7: it feels like people's attention spans are getting shorter and shorter.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 7: And mister Flynn, uh, such an improv comedy genius. And
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 7: Zach you're a writer, and mister Faison, you just kind
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 7: of embody what cool is to me. And you've been
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 7: doing I mean since Clueless.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 7: My sister was begging to Clueless. And I can't tell
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 7: you how much I look up to you and have
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 7: tried to emulate some of the style that.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 3: You have accepted and received accept.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 7: But as days have changed in people's attention spans have
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 7: gotten shorter. How do you feel yourselves adapting as entertainers,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 7: writers and improv comedy people. Do you feel like you've
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 7: had to shift the way you approach things or do
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 7: you feel like you've kept it the same to just
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 7: stay true to your art or how does that feel
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 7: on your end?
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: That's a good question. Know, they just came out with
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: this service that as I understand, it isn't doing as
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: well as anyone hoped. Called Quibi, which is basically like
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: ten minute episodes you can watch on your phone, which
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: I would have thought would do well because people are
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: commuting and they're sitting in a doctor's office, and for
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: all I know it will do well one day. But
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: that I was thinking of of that service when you
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: said that. The biggest thing I noticed is that whenever
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: I do anything, if it's a TV show, if it's
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: a film, if it's a music video, if it's a documentary,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: everyone writes me on Instagram when second be on Netflix.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: It's as though it's like the only thing most people
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: watch anymore. So that's always on my mind. When I'm
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: going out and I'm pitching a new idea, I'm always
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: kind of like, well, I I you know, Netflix has
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: so much content, but in my mind, I'm thinking, like,
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: I kind of want this to be on Netflix because
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: that's what everybody seems to watch these days. Whenever you know,
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: I'll I like when we were talking briefly about the
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: ABC show I did alex Inca that it didn't didn't
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: last or work that well. But I remember when I
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: was promoting it. I was just doing anything I could
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: to promote it, anything, anything, anything, and then everyone was like,
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: sounds great, Zach, when's it on Netflix? And I'm like, well,
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: it's not. It's it's on ABC. It's it's not, it's
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: not gonna be on Netflix. But I don't know. That's
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: what I just got thinking about that. What about you guys.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 4: I feel like it's, well, you know, while we're in
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 4: this downtime, I'm trying to you know, I got a
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 4: couple of other voices, trying to develop something, you know,
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 4: to do when when we can start to work again. Yeah,
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 4: And it's really I've never done that before. I've never
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 4: helped create a show, but I feel like to start
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 4: a new show now, I don't think attention spans are
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 4: any order. Necessarily, people are watching stuff. It's just not
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 4: the same stuff they used to watch. And there's more
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 4: TV than there ever was. And I feel like, if
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 4: you're going to start something from the ground up, you
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 4: can't just do family, living room multi cam, you know,
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 4: it feels like that's gone. There has to be something
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 4: a hook to the show. Yeah, and whether it's you know,
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 4: I don't know what really shows they're doing with a
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 4: period piece or you know, real people like I don't know,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 4: the Kennedy's or something, or the Queens and Kings or
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 4: something fantastical or outer space, or it just feels like
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 4: you can't do that. The time has passed through the
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 4: Johnson family.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: Although you just gave me a genius idea to do
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: a traditional like living room sitcom, but it's Kings and
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: Queen's in a castle.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 4: I would do it, except they live on like the
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 4: set of the Cosby show, the Kings and Queen, but
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 4: they just have anion.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: But they're they're royals, and they've been transported from a
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: from another era, but and they don't really know why
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: they're there. But they live in this this you know,
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: suburban house.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 4: That could work, or that could have worked in nineteen
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 4: eighty six.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: You know, come on, man, if ALF could.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 4: Work, I was just gonna say ALF. Yeah.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: We talked about ALF extensively in one of these episodes,
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: because I remember as a kid, a child, seeing a
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: commercial for ALF and being like that's so stupid, No
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: one's gonna watch that, and then cut to me like
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: riveted every week like watching ALF?
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 4: What do you call that? Being kind of funny? I
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 4: think it was a kind of a funny show.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: No, it was genius and Max Wright, who is hilarious, Yeah,
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: played the father.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: What are you doing? Alf?
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: And he notoriously hated being on a puppet show. He
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: hated every second of it. Oh w he hated the puppet.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 7: Fuck that puppet.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: I would have woke off this set. Fuck you out,
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: I'm going to trailer Alf, Fuck you.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 7: This is a true story. Alf the puppet was actually
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 7: my sleep paralysis demon from like age three to ten.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 4: Well, I didn't see sleep paralysis demon. What's it about?
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: I have all their music? What is what is a
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: sleep paralysis demon? For those of us who don't know?
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 7: All right, So, sleep paralysis is like this condition where
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 7: you're you know, dead asleep and you and if I'm
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 7: sure you know, if you don't know, there's chemicals in
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 7: your body that were released to paralyze you while you're
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 7: sleeping so that you don't get up and run while
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 7: you're dreaming. Right, there's things there's a phenomenon that can
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 7: happen where you achieve consciousness, but you're still paralyzed by
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 7: those things that are keeping you sleeping. And I happen
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 7: to get that and have since I was a really
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 7: little kid. And typically, for whatever reason, whatever you want
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 7: to say about the human condition or whatever, when people
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 7: are stuck at us, they go to a very dark
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 7: space and usually they see something really ugly or terrifying.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 7: And this, I mean it could be anything, it can
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 7: be a literal. So so people call them their sleep
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 7: paralysis demons. And Alf was literally mine. There was a
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 7: commercial on TV where Alf pressed his face against the glass.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 7: It is probably from like the premiere episode. And when
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 7: I was eight years old. I think specifically, anytime I
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 7: would get in the sleep paralysis state, there would be
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 7: Alf at the edge of my I be.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, yeah, it's a frightening thing.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: And was saying anything to you? Or was he just
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: he was just him up against the glass at the
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: foot of your bed.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it was just him against the glass.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know, man, Do you still have a sleep
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: paralysis a sleep paralysis demon?
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 4: Now?
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: And is it still Alf?
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: Is it still Alf? No?
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 7: Now, it's just uh Now, it's just I was gonna
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 7: say something, but I won't.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 4: No.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 7: Now it's it's actually a guy in a suit.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: Okay, wow, wow, that's scary.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: Well that's very scary. I I that's traumatic. You know, Alf,
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: I didn't have that much problems with Alf. We brought
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: it up. We brought it up on the show before.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: I didn't know. I don't know if this was in
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: your sleep paralysis nightmare. But Alf has a tail. We learned,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: uh Neil, because I had the stuffed animal for Alf
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: and I was a child, and what I would do
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: is I would take the alf tail and I would
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: tuck it through its legs and close his legs to
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: give him a giant erect alf penis.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 7: Mister Braff, You've changed my life in many ways, and
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 7: now I want to thank you because now my sleep
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 7: paralysis Alf is going to have a big old tail penis.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 7: Thank you for that.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: Now, Sam, I'm gonna feel so bad if it goes
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: back from man and suit to Alf with an alpha erection.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: I apologize, but maybe you'll be able to laugh at him,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: just point and laugh at him. Maybe he'll dissipate.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure I understood the question. I thought you
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: were asking, like how to how.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: He was saying now that in his opinion and an
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: opinion of others, things are getting shorter and shorter for
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: short attention spans. Do you think there's any way that
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: you have adapted the way you perform or evolved things
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: that you're doing for a shorter attention span, whether it's
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 1: anything you do, maybe in your animated videos. You know,
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: I noticed something I'm gonna I'm gonna answer for Donald
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: and Donald you pipe in. You used to post some
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: of your stop motion animation longer clips. Now you're posting
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: very short clips. Do you think that's the human attention span?
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 3: Absolutely?
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 2: Because at one point I realized that, thank you very much, Zach.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 2: At one point I realized people were not paying attention
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 2: past a minute, you know what I mean? Fuck that,
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: not paying attention past thirty seconds. And so now when
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: I do when I post animation clips, they're like four
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: seconds or five seconds, because you know, if anything, they'll
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: watch it a couple of times, three or four times
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: before they move on to the next thing to make
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 2: sure they're just to pick up visually what it was
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 2: that they saw, you know what I mean. So like
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 2: with animation, if it doesn't look right, people don't necessarily
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: pay attention to it.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: And also I have a side question. If you're doing animation,
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: is it better for you to focus on a short
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: do a short little segment really really really well, rather
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: than do work on a full minute that has mistakes
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: in it.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's better to do it.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: In my opinion, if you can do a full minute
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: of perfect animation, you're great.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 3: But no movie is like that either though, you know
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 3: what I mean.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: There are very few movies that have scenes that are
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 2: a wonder for one minute, you know what I mean.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: And if they do do that, it's a special shot.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: And so with animation you try to shoot it just
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: like you would shoot any other project that you put
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 2: on film, whether it be movie or television. You want
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: to make it quick and keep the cuts coming so
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: that everybody. The faster the pace, the better it is
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 2: with animation. The slower the slower the pace of the story,
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 2: the easy it is for people to tune out.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: Sometimes I send you clips of animation that I think
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: is cool and you don't even reply, and it hurts
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: my feelings.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry because I've seen them already.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: But you could say yes, I've seen this.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: I could say yes, I've seen this, thank you.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: It's like when my mom sends me my mom send
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: me a picture of like a bird, and you know, okay,
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: but I can I still take the time to be
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: like pretty bird mom. You know you could, you might,
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: you know, I might say, hey, exact cool animation, saw
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: this one.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: You know what, from here on out, because I now
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: know that you're very.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: Sensitive when it comes to I am sensitive.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: I will from here on out I will respond with,
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 2: oh man, I've seen that already.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 3: But thank you.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: All right, Samuel, do another question.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 7: I got all kinds of questions, but we'll keep it.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 7: We'll keep it like, uh, just knowing that mister Flynn's there,
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 7: which is so cool. I just have to say, I
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 7: seriously think you're one of the funniest people that has
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 7: ever existed. Especially I told him that too. I say,
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 7: I agree, it's just totally true. I'm just you know,
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 7: just freeballing here. Let's just say that, yeah, freeballing always,
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 7: which always, you.
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: Don't have to tell us what you're under our.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 7: Situation, sam I said the wrong word under you know.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is why Alph won't leave the foot of
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: your bed. He wants to see those balls.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: Oh god, oh Samuel.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: All right, Samuel, go ahead, free ball away Janitor spinoff
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: of Scrubs.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 7: Let's just say that they brought it back. Let's just
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 7: say they got mister Braff and mister Faison uh signed
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 7: on his co stars and at least the pilot episode
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 7: where would you want to explore the janitor's character down?
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 7: What would you want the episode episode? What kind of
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 7: stuff would you like to be in?
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 4: It? Outer space? That's where it's said, we're marooned in
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 4: outer space.
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 2: So its short of like a Gilligan's Island type island
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: on a planet ship?
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: Are you on a shipkneel or or on a planet?
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 4: Uh a ship? And then then like towards the end
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 4: of the first season, it lands.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: Sort of like sort of like Josie and the pussy Cats,
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 2: the janitor and the and the doctors.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 4: Yes, it's very much like Josie and the pussy Cats. Yeah,
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 4: I was hoping you wouldn't notice that I stole up.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: So the janitor is also in a band.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we're all musicians.
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Neil, you joke, but I would watch this show.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, neurn't necessarily steal the character from Scrubs, but
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: you could be. Your character is a janitor on a
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: on a spaceship, which is a character you never see
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: who's cleaning who's cleaning these spaceships?
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, that's funny.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: Yes, you watched so much sci fi. Have you ever
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: seen anyone cleaning up inside any of those ships?
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 4: No?
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: Never, not even the Millennium Falcon, which is the dirtiest
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: spaceship in the galaxy.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 4: No one does any maintenance.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 7: Never ever.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 4: Maybe Jordie did a little maintenance.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 3: Well, but Jordy was like he was an engineer though. Man,
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 3: he was like, oh, that's.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: Right, working like just like like your character would often be,
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: you be doing something. We joke about, Neil that we
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: sometimes we're like, you know what, the janitor was actually
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: a good janitor for he was he really worked a lot.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: He was always doing ship and uh and you always
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: always were actually working.
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 4: I would have said the opposite. There was oftentimes I
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 4: would say, should I be doing something? I'm constantly just
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 4: walking around a corner with nothing in my hands. You know,
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 4: what are you doing?
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: Wasn't there a time when when when someone a director
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: said to mop in the admissions and you're like, there's
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: a carpet.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 4: I don't remember that.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: Anyway, I'm very interested, Neil in developing this year a
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: chanitor on a spaceship series.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, because if it's a it's about three guys
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 4: that they're marooned out in space. Okay, well what did
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: they do beforehand? Were they scientists or.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: They were on a mission? Donald and I were were.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: The well two guys were on a mission and one
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 2: guy was cleaning the ship for them.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, Donald, Donald, that's what it was. Yeah,
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: Donald and I are on a mission. And part of
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: this mission. Because there's been a lot of complaints about
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: cleanliness and spaceships, they sent along a member of the
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: janitorial stuff to keep the ship clean while they're on
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: their mission.
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 4: And then once it, once it crashes or whatever, the
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 4: status you know, the totem pole is scrambled. Yes, right, yeah,
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 4: Now the scientists, you know.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 2: Scared shitless, and the janitor is like, I can handle
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 2: this because follow my lead.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the janitor janitor becomes the captain.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, and maybe maybe Donald and I are injured, so
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: we can't really do much, but the janitor takes over.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 3: Well, we don't have to be injured. We just have
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 3: to be like kind of like.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 2: Not really good with other things other than piloting in science.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 4: No survival skills whatsoever, whatsoever.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: That's good Neil. So Neil's character is like, not only
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: was he working for a custodial staff, but he was
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: an amazing survivalist. And Donald and I don't know anything
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: about how to survival on this random planet.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: Our journey could have been just we were supposed to
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: go to the International Space Station, right, and that's it.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: And somehow we got knocked off course by some crazy
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: ass gamma wave or some type of microwave or something
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 2: like that, and it sends us into a wormhole and
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 2: we wind up in this fucking galaxy where we don't
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 2: know shit about anything, right, but and don't know how
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: to survive other than if we were to be, you know,
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: on an International space station.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 3: And Neil Flynn janitor, Hey, you.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 4: Know what, I just thought of something. We didn't star Trek.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 4: They went to different planets and stuff, right, Yes, they
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 4: never wore helmets, pursuits.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: Those ever they had oxygen and those all those planets
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: had oxygen.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 3: They were all supporting planets.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah right, Apparently imagine they made that decision early on.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: Well, I imagine, like you said, with the headphones not
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 1: looking good, I'm sure that what's his name, Captain Kirk
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: was like, you're not putting the helen on this.
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 4: Yea.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 3: It was like no way to.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 1: Chattner. Yeah, so that's the idea. Joel, will you produce?
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: Joel will produce. Thank you, We're off to the races.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: Samuel sank you for calling in, my friend.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 7: Oh, it's such a pleasure to meet everybody. Thank you
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 7: very much.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: Thank you awesome and good luck and listen, don't let
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 1: those monsters keep you in bed. Be safe.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 7: Now, I'm going to show my balls and laugh at him.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: That's okay, And that's a lesson for everybody out there.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: If you're ever afraid, show them your balls and just
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: laugh at them.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 7: Well, I'll see you in jail.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: Maybe not. Donald's like, well, I'm never mind.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 3: By man, take care.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, I have so many questions.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 4: Back to space Janitor, I love it.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: Neil's like furiously taking notes about that.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 4: Yes I am. I wonder if part of it should
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 4: be a game show, or maybe the whole thing a
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 4: game show. Just for some reason, we're sticking with this,
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 4: these these elements that are a Janitor lost in space. Okay,
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 4: Carter family. What is the capital of shod.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 3: For the stop.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: And believe it or not, Neil starts with a G.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: There's a silent G. Yeah, Joel check is G s
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: T A A D if I'm not mistaken.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 4: God, that reminds me of DJIBOUTI. I think it's pronounced
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 4: this episode with an N.
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: I think a D starts with you're right, you're right? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: But I remember when we used to do the show.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 2: You used to do crossword puzzles.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 4: Did I? Yeah, I'm going through phases.
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the New York Times probably yeah, and you would do.
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 3: I remember.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: I never I suck at spelling, and I also suck
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 2: at crossword puzzles. But would you ever get to would
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: you ever get to the Sunday one? Have you ever
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like I hear the Sunday
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 2: ones are the real hard ones. Monday it gets easy
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: and then yeah, that just goes it gets more difficult.
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 1: And ask if you could finish a Sunday is what
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: you're asking.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 3: I'm asking.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: I'm asking how deep into the week would you get?
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: Because I know there were times where you would you know,
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 2: I remember asking you one you'd be like, oh this
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 2: is from like a couple of weeks ago.
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 4: Hmm, oh really, well that's you know, it depends on
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 4: how yeah hard your work sometimes you just pick it
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 4: up for ten minutes and go on about your day.
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 4: But I haven't done one in a long time. But yes,
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 4: I used to completely most of the time the same day,
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 4: within an hour or two.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: I was always jealous of people that could.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 4: I was. I think, at least what I know to
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 4: be true, is it actually Saturday is the hardest day.
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 4: Sunday's a big puzzle. Sunday's like the super sized puzzle.
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 4: It's not necessarily harder.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: So it builds the Saturday, and then Sunday's a bigger one,
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: and Monday's the easiest. I feel like I have maybe
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: done a Monday.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 2: I've never I remember somebody saying that to me and
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 2: being like, oh, okay, let me get the one on Monday.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: I just don't know.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: And I realized you had to you had well, you
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 3: had to read the paper too.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 4: That was the ons.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: I didn't know a lot of trivia. I mean, I
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: could do it if it was like you know, no,
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: you three letters star of a sitcom alien puppet.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 4: This is a nice, nice callback.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. It means a lot to me.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 1: We barely talked about the episode, but we should talk about
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: the Saint Elsewhere cast that was visiting in this. Did
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: you guys, either one of you watch Saint Elsewhere back
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: in the day?
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 3: I did so in Denzel.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah else Was it Denzil's first role.
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it was his first role, but
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 2: I know he was on Saint else him and Howie Mandel.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's right.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 3: Wasn't the theme song.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 4: Like that.
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 3: And that that something like that?
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that sounds very familiar.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: I visited the set once my parents watched it. I
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: believe it was Bruce Paltrow, Gwyneth Paltrow's father, who was
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: a very big showrunner then, who produced it with others.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: And my dad knew someone. We were visiting La and
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: my dad knew someone. We got onto the set. It
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: was like the first, like real big TV set. Interestingly,
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking about this out loud. The first real set
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: I ever visited was was a hospital set which was
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: saying Elsewhere, And I think it was beyond my It
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: was too old for me as a child, but I
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: remember my parents really loving it. Juelle just told me
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: that Denzel made his feature film debut in the comedy
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: A carbon Copy, and and then he was That was
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: eighty one and then he was cast in the So

  Speaker 1: it's the second part probably, and he was on he
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: was on Sathing else Where eighty two to eighty eight.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: That'd be cool to go back and watch a young Denzel.

  Speaker 4: On that show.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 3: Well he's been.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 2: The crazy thing is he's barely on the show, like
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 2: he was one of the Yeah, you know, they didn't
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 2: use him a lot on the show, and which was
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: which turned out to be great for him because he
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: would be able to go and do movies instead of
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean. They were like, well, you're
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 2: not on the show this week, and he'd be like, oh, okay,
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: well there's this dude doing this project.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm going to sign on and do it.

• 1:23:05
  Speaker 2: He did theater in New York you know what I mean,
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: he's now blowing up as an actor. You should really
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: check out if you because you know, I wanted to
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 2: be an actor at an early age. They were like
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 2: Denzel Washington and they showed me Cry Freedom and I
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 2: remember being like, oh my god.
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 3: This is the most amazing movie ever.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was incredible.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 3: And uh and I was very young when I came out.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 2: And then you know, from that Mississippi Massala and you know,
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: The Mighty Quinn and a bunch of other movies.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 4: But yeah, then Glory eventually of course.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 3: Glory, Yeah, Glory.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: Glory was one of the first times as a child
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: that I that I knew who he was. And I've
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: just never seen a performance better than that performance than Glory.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: By the time Glory came out, I was well versed
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 2: in Denzel Washington.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 3: William go ahead, I was.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: Just gonna say that for me. William Daniels is the
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: voice of Kit. Yeah, and when when William Daniels started
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: speaking in this episode, I had forgotten. I went, oh
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: my god, it's kid. Yeah, well he was the voice
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 1: of wat Oh yeah, you never watched night Rider. He's
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 1: a little bit older than us, so that Donald and
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: I were right in the pocket for a team and
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: night Rider and.
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 3: Did you ever watch a team?
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 4: No? Oh? Ver?
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, I went to Universal Students and I
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 3: was a kid.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: We went to Universal Studios the tour and they had
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: a night Rider car and you could get in it
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 1: and the car would talk to you, and it was
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: amazing in hindsight as an adult they obviously had a
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: hidden camera and a guy sign, but as a child
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: that was like, holy shit, it's kit And I just
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: remember thinking was the coolest. And he would, you know,
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: he would say things to try and show off that
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: he could see you. It'd be like I like you,
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: I like your blue shirt, and and I'd be like,
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: oh my god, cat. But they didn't have it. Wasn't
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: it wasn't to William Daniels sitting in some room somewhere.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 4: Probably not.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: No, I don't think they paid his rate.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 2: Did he go on to do Boy Meets World after
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 2: all of that, after Night Rider and everything? Wasn't he
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 2: like the next door neighbor William Daniels, Yeah.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 4: Yes, but he I don't know about Boy Meets the World,
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 4: but certainly it would have been after Sante elsewhere wasn't
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 4: he I think I'm mixing him up with somebody else.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 4: But wasn't he in the graduate? Oh?
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know. That's a good question.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 4: He might Dustin Hoffman's dad, the.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: One who says plastics? Is he the one who says plastics?
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 4: No, but that's in their yard.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: That's right. That's a neighbor, right, or a friend.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I can picture him saying Benjamin Benjamin. And if
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 4: it's not him, it's an actor.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: That Joel's checking reminds me of each other. And then
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: at Atlee and also Stephen First, who was famously an
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: animal House. Yeah, have you seen Animal House? Donald?
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 3: I have seen that. Yes, I have seen animal.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 4: I saw Animal House the night before I left for college.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 3: College was college like animals?
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 1: Live up to it?
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 4: Not? Well, you know, it wasn't quite the same. But
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 4: I did join a fraternity, probably influenced by that somewhat.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 4: It seemed like they were having fun.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, did you toga?
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 4: I don't think we ever did a toga thing. That
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 4: would be a little too on the nose.
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 2: Dude, what's up with the zombie movie? All of a sudden,
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 2: in the middle of this episode, out of nowhere it
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 2: turned into a zombie movie.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: I know it was Mark Buckland directing. I remember, and
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: I remember it was kind of like a wide angle
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 1: lens and trying to do all sort of a zombie film.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: I thought that was weird too. Did you notice it? Sorry,
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 1: I'm going I'm jumping around, but it's seven oh three.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you noticed this, but the score
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden has like record DJ scratching in it.
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 1: Did you notice that?
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 3: I didn't notice there's like a score queue, like all
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 3: of a sudden, it's like no fun.
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: Prince of bel Air. Oh wait, so Joel is saying
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: that Joel, are you saying that he was in the
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 1: graduate then he was? Indeed?
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 6: Sorry, yes he was in the graduate Neil, You're.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: Right, okay, all right, there you go, Daniels.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: So in this episode, you know, JD's all word that
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 2: he has gotten sick from uh. And I remember when
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: I was a kid, I just felt invincible, you know
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 2: what I mean?
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 3: And you know, even with even.
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 2: With things that I shouldn't have been, even with things
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: that I shouldn't have been doing where I should have
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 2: been using protection, I felt like invincible, like you know,
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 2: motorcycles whatever, whatever it was, where I should have, you know,
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 2: wore a helmet. I didn't, you know what I mean?
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 2: And because of that, I got a lot of kids.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 3: But the thing is, are you that way?
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: Are using a cryptic analogy because your daughter is on
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 1: your lap? Yes, I see, I followed it.
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 3: Now, Yeah you didn't.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 1: You didn't wear a helmet when you were on your motorcycle.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 3: Absolutely right.
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 2: But the fear of disease or hurting myself in any
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 2: way never came across my mind.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 3: You didn't think about things like that.
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 2: Now I have nothing but fear when it comes to
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 2: that stuff, you know what I mean. And it's it's
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 2: it's I noticed that I've because of the situation that
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 2: we're in, and you know, because of isolation and and
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 2: quarantine and everything like that.
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 3: I treat people a lot differently because of that.
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 2: And Ted the lawyer does that to j D at
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: one point where he's like he's trying to play it
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: off where he is, you know, things will be fine,
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 2: and then he's like, hey, don't you want your pin back?
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 3: JD's like, don't you want your pin back? And the
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 3: look and Ted's like, you know, keep.
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: It, yeah, and that's kind of how I am now,
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like when when the we
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 2: get groceries delivered, now they knock on the door, or
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 2: I'll wait a minute before I go to the door,
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 2: just to make sure that the air around the door
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 2: isn't you know, Like if we were in a room
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 2: right now and Neil you would have coughed like that,
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 2: I'd been like you, okay, man, I.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 1: Was coughing last night and I was like, oh my god,
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: my girlfriend must totally think I'm sick. I don't know
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: if you guys are conscious of that. You're like, now
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 1: you cough in public and you're like, no, no, I'm fine, No, no.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 3: No, no, I'm fine.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 1: I'm fine.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 3: And and that's you know, this episode.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: You know everybody needs first of all, everybody needs to
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 2: first of all chill out, you know what I mean.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 2: I know that this is a very dangerous and scary
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 2: time for us and everything like that, but you're you're
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 2: always jumping to the worst case scenario, you know what
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 2: I mean. You you have a you have a you know,
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 2: a feeling in your foot, you jump online and the
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 2: next thing you know, you've got gird. You know, you're
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 2: telling everybody, I've got I've got a gout, you know
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 2: what I.
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: Mean, your digestify on your toes.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 3: You're fucked, Yeah, you're fucked right, But you know what
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, It's like, I don't know.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: If everyone's like that down You and I might be
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 1: a neurotic and looking everything up and thinking we've got
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: something bad, whereas other people might be like, no, I'm fine.
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 2: I don't know that many people that are that think
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 2: that way, you know what I mean.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 3: I think there's a fear. We talked about this earlier.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 2: There's a fear of going to the hospital and finding
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 2: out that something's wrong. So I think a lot of
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 2: people when something does come up there like, ah, you
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 2: know what, I'm not going to find out about it.
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 2: If it's really bad, it'll kick my ass later on
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 2: and then I'll have to go to the hospital and
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 2: they'll fix it thin. But you know, for Jay, for
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 2: me personally nowadays, with this episode did for me when
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 2: watching it was like it made me realize I have
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 2: a real phobia when it comes to germs now, and
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 2: I have a real phobia when it comes to other
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 2: people's germs now. And it has a lot to do
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 2: with what we're going through. But I didn't have that
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 2: shit when I was a kid, I wasn't afraid of
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 2: things like this, you know what I mean. There were
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 2: people that got stuck with me when we were doing
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 2: the show. A couple of people that accidentally got stuck
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 2: with needles, fucking around with the props, you know what
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, thinking oh.
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 3: This was fake.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: That would freaked me out.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 2: I would have lost my ship. Nowadays, I'd be like,
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 2: I'm dying. I know I'm dead. Sarah was the only
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 2: person that I knew. Sarah Schalk was the only person
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 2: that I knew that was like that was like if
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 2: if she had if she had the chills, it was
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 2: it was life for I'm dying.
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 3: I know I'm dying, you know what I mean.
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 1: It must be a real thing. I mean, well, how
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 1: terrifying for for real medical personnel who who get stuck.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 1: I'm sure on occasion if the person had something serious,
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: how how scary that would be.
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 2: We're walking around the house. Don't get sick, and don't
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 2: break your leg, don't get hurt, you know what I mean.
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 2: The kids are playing around like, well, everybody, calm down.
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 2: We don't want to go to the hospital. Right now,
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 2: now's not the time to go to the hospital.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 4: Well really, there's you know, it's never a good time
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 4: to go to the hospital. But uh yeah, I thought
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 4: about that, like if you had a appendix.
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 1: Right was exact ass cheek, Yeah.
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 4: I can have my eyes shake removed, But it was
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 4: an elective surgery, turns out, so I couldn't have that.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 4: But yeah, you don't want anything to go wrong, You're well,
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 4: we'll see, you know, in the next week or so
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 4: if any of this people crowding around each other, uh something.
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: Well I actually have said I not to be Debbie
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: Downer towards the end of the episode, but that the
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 1: things are spiking back up in LA and uhh, and
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: no one's talking about it because there's plenty else going
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: on in the news, as we all know. But I
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 1: read I read some articles like why is no one
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: talking about the new COVID spike in Los Angeles?
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 4: I think there's spikes in a lot of places, but
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 4: New York is going down so much that it looks
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 4: like a flat line for the country.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 1: You mean, like the national line. Yeah, yes, yes, well yeah,
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: I fear I fear that that everyone's kind of over it,
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: you know, people are like, all right, we did fuck it.
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: We got to get out of the house now. And
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: and that might be fine if you live in a
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: place where this isn't as prevalent, but in la it
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 1: does appear to be climbing back up.
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 2: And the only reason why we're talking about this right now,
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 2: we know we try to get you away from as listeners,
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 2: and we try to keep this as a distraction, a
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 2: distracted as much as a distraction as possible.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 3: But this is in the story. Yes, you know what
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, and so that's why we.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: That's why, guys, it's in. It's in the episode, and
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 1: so you know it's about Scott Foley being left I mean,
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: listen and Jowell please weigh in as the only female
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 1: on the panel. But Scott Folly, Scott Foley being left
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 1: alone by Sarah standing there with his roses, it just
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 1: felt a little like just so mean. I mean, with Elliott,
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 1: she found love and or not love necessarily, but she
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 1: really liked this guy. He's as bad as charming as
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 1: a human being could be. He looks like Scott Foley.
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 1: She's like, she leaves him, she leaves him lot m
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 1: for it looks exactly like Scott Fowlly, she leaves him
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: at the door. I mean, I don't know, what are
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 1: your thoughts on that?
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think okay. So I didn't get into movies
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 6: from the seventies until like I was in college. This
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 6: is sort of my first experience watching a woman be like, listen,
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 6: I like you, but this career I've invested in is
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 6: everything to me that we have to pause because it
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 6: wasn't even like a solid breakup. She's like, right now,
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 6: I can't make this work. And it like, as you know, once,
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 6: I'm like twelve, and I was like, you could just
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 6: leave a dude for work, It's brilliant. I started a
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 6: White Boys at that age, and I was like, oh,
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 6: so tedious, and so for her to just be like,
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna work on my stuff, I was like, this
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 6: is brilliant. Oh my god, I like this scene.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: Oh I okay, there you go, there's the answer. I
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: was like, I mean, I was impressed by the character
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 1: making that choice because the writers really went out of
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 1: their way to make sure there was absolutely nothing wrong
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: with this guy. I mean, he was as dreamy as
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 1: it could be. But she was getting distracted from her work,
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: and she was like look, I really am excited about,
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: but this is what I've worked my whole life for.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 1: So I gotta push you away.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 4: Which he's not gone though, is he.
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 1: No, he does come back.
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 3: But I don't know that she was distracted.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 2: I think it was how the hospital reacted to her
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 2: and the Walk of Shame in the beginning of the episode.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 2: I think that was more of a reason for her
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 2: to break up with. You know, Elliott is very worried
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 2: about what everyone thinks about her. That's what the character,
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 2: that's how the character is, you know. You know, she
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 2: even says in the beginning of ninety nine percent of
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 2: my life is me trying to impress my dad, you
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 2: know what I mean. And so I think when the
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 2: Walk of Shame thing happened and everyone made fun of her,
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 2: I think that's you know, it sent her down the
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 2: rabbit hole and she spiraled, and that's why.
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 1: But he was also it wasn't just that Donald she
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 1: you know, Kelso's like grilling her and she doesn't know
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 1: the answers to questions. It rounds where she always does,
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 1: and then she starts getting in her head. At one
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: point she's like, she can't think of something, and I
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: like I turned around. I'm like, come on, you know
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 1: that she's tired, maybe because she was up all night
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 1: playing schoolgirl.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 2: Right, But I think that stems from once again, you know,
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 2: Kelso seeing her at the at the scrubs machine and
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 2: giving her shit for not having her scrubs her scrubs
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 2: that day, you know what I mean. I think, I
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 2: don't know, I could be I don't know.
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: It's probably it's probably both a combination of both. But anyway,
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: we all know, we all know the spoiler alert that
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 1: Scott Fuley comes back. He ends up being an animal.
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 1: Is he a marine biologist or an animal trainer at
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: SeaWorld something like that.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 2: But what a great scene that was though, too man
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 2: where they break up because it looks like it's going.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 3: One way, you know, and.
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 2: The miss there's a great misdirection, right, you know, she
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 2: breaks she kind of you see her breaking up with
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 2: him earlier in the script where he comes to visit
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 2: her and she's like, and he's doing all the right things,
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 2: and she's getting pissed off that he's doing all the
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 2: right things.
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 3: And then she comes out at the end and it.
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 2: Seems like she's gotten over all the all of the
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 2: bs that she was holding on to because of her
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 2: walker shame situation, and then in the middle of it,
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 2: she discovers, wait a second, it's not just that I
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 2: am distracted because of how perfect you are. And now's
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 2: not the time for me to be distracted. Now's the
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 2: time for me to be the best I possibly can be,
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 2: so that in a couple of years, in a few years,
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 2: I can find another I can find a guy just
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 2: like you and do it all over again, and this
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 2: time for Keeps and I feel and the way they
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 2: both play the scene is perfect because it really does
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 2: feel like Sean is hit by a mac truck because
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 2: he doesn't see it coming, you know what I mean.
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 2: He sees it as Okay, she had a bad day.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 2: I'm going to bring her flowers and cheer her up. Yeah,
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 2: And now she's walking back into the hospital and I'm
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 2: standing here with a dozen roses.
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 1: I felt bad for him. I'm such a sucker for
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 1: the writers. Really how to get me with you know,
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 1: love that cannot be I'm like, Oh, this poor guy,
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 1: he's like crazy about this girl. He's standing here with
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 1: roses and he's like, she's goes, he goes. I'm gonna
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 1: be I'm gonna wait here because I know you're gonna
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 1: change your mind in two minutes. And she's like, I
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: hope so, and then she doesn't.
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 3: He just and then he trashes the roses.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 1: Well do you think he trashes the rose or he
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 1: leaves them and people just walk all over him. I
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 1: couldn't just figure that out.
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I just thought of that when I first saw
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 4: the roses. I thought, yeah, come on, that's a little
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 4: bit of a hissy fit.
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 1: Like he was jumping up and down on it.
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, but the only reason I know that he
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 4: doesn't disappear well it, come to think of it. Oh no,
• 1:38:38

• 1:38:45
