• 6:19
  Speaker 1: when they were kids, like out of college, and they

• 6:25
  Speaker 1: don't know this many Grammys and cover a Time magazine
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: and they were just like cracking each other up. And
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: She's like, every single thing we put on that whiteboard happened.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, John Legend got an egot.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: He's got well, Randall's gonna get a fucking egot, especially
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: for his acting skills.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Oh boy, here we go.

• 6:45
  Speaker 1: me out to Randall saying that I dissed his work
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: as Death in the show, and Randall texted me very
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: upset about his work is Death being criticized?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think I played the part that was
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: required of death. And I also you know, death is
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: not the only role that they played on Scrubs, you know.
• 7:09

• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Randall, how many episodes did Leonard do?
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Do you think? I don't know exactly how many episodes
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: he did, but I will tell you this, all fans
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: that wrote to me, so many people from Men's prison
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: got some sort of treat assigned script or something from Scrubs.

  Speaker 1: Leonard, not a lot, but you got more fam mail
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Leonard or death.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Leonard? For sure.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go back to the beginning.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Yes, let's start at the very beginning.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: I tried to do that with you manifesting your destiny,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: but at some point things changed for you, Like you
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: lived in New York for a little bit and then
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: you moved to Los Angeles. Can you just tell us
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: how it all started and how you got connected with Bill,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: and how this became and how this all trans sent
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: it into scrubs.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: Yes, the truth is Bill and I met socially first.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, on scrubs. We kept a
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: graduation photo in Turk and JD's apartment and told everybody
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: that was our graduation picture. But we really we met
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: on the basketball court. I had an I had an
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: old room, so I had I had driven out from
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: the Midwest, you know, I trying to try to find
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: my dream, got to Los Angeles, snuck onto all the
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: lots in town, got myself a job, and I started
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: creating my circle, you know, your chosen family, your LA family,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: and a guy who was my best friend, who I
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: lived with, a guy named Greg Malon's who went on
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: to run friends, and how I met your mother, and
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: a bunch of other stuff. He and Bill had this
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: played in this Saturday game and invited me to play
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: a few times. And that's how that was how I
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: originally met Bill. I went from working for a guy
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: named Gary Dave Goldberg. That was my very first job.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: He's the guy who created Family Ties. Yeah. He was amazing.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: He was an amazing mentor and he had taken Bill
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: under his wing. So Gary is in some ways the
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: reason that we started working together. And the first show
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: we did together was a show called Champs. That was
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: the first show we did together, and Kevin Neelan was
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: in it, and it was it was DreamWork's very first
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: TV show, So.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: That kind of okay. Just to so Kevin Nielan, who
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Zach remembers being at the first party we ever had
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: in our scrubs up. That's why Kevin Nielan was there, Zach.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: He wasn't there because he was a fan of the show.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: He was there because he worked with Bill and Randall.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, well he may have been a coincidence, but okay,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I'll hear you.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, Randal V.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Froze, are you still there? Oh boy?
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: And that was when we lost random.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Oh god, what are you drinking there?
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Mamosa Little Mimosa.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Memorial Day, Yeah, buddy. The think about Memorial Day is
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: it's just another weekday that you can rationalize. It's okay
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: to drink early. Yeah, in this day and age, it
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: doesn't feel any different. My girlfriend was it's Memorial Day.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I'm like, how is that going to be different from
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: any other day that we're living in hibernation right now?
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: What a kid can drink?
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the kids don't have to get on zoom today.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, I guess if you have kids, they don't have
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: to get on their zoom things.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: But but today is a is a day where you know,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: my wife looked at me and it was like, you're drinking already.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: And I was like, it's.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: A Memorial day.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: It's a Memorial Day.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: So did she then join you?
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: No? She did not.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: She was like, you're an alcoholic.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh shit, be like, baby, it's a
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Memorial Day.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: And on that note, I'm going upstairs to do my podcast.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: Randall says he's resetting the Wi Fi. Oh god, that's
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: that's that's unfortunate.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: You know, we lost all the momentum of blowing this
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: guy up. We're gonna have to regenerate it.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: We're gonna have to regenerate it.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: We're gonna have to regenerate our Randall blow up.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: He said, fucking spectrum.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: I just had my dad switch off of Spectrum for
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: the same reason that ship is do do.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Trum is bad Dan, you don't support No, guys, I
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: want you to listen. This is a very very technical
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: man here and he's saying fuck Spectrum. So if you're
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: choosing a provider, listen to Dan. The only way.
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: That I found that you get good internet service is
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: if you just switched from provider to provider every year
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: or so. Because they don't reward loyalty. There's no like
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: your bill is reduced, your service is better. It just
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: gets worse and worse and worse, and they want to
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: keep getting new customers. So I have gigabit Internet a
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: thousand megabytes up and down for seventy five bucks a month,
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: which is the cheapest Internet I've ever had.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: And it's just because I switched.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I got What are you using now, Dan? AT and
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: T and T? All right, Well, guys, you're hearing it
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: a year first that Dan really recommends AT and T.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: It's really about you can work the companies against each
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: other if you're constantly quitting one and saying no, fuck off,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: you suck, and then they give you a better rate.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: So if you have the time, which you do now,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: you two can have fancy fast internet like Dan Randall,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: welcome back, blowing you up. And then you had to
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: do a Wi Fi problem.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: All right, so let's get back into it.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: So you let's just jumped to in the spirit of time,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: let's just keep this moving. You start work on Spin
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: City with Bill and you hit it off. You become besties.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: You're partying around the city, your young men in Manhattan go.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: From LA.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: How did you get from LA to Manhattan? How did
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: that happen? Well, we're playing Donald, no doubt you man
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: the fight. If I could reach through this right.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Now, Uh, you know what, it goes back to basketball.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: We came off to the basketball court one night playing
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: and uh, Gary and Bill pulled me aside and they said,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: you know, we just wrote this pilot.
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: We sent it to uh. We sent it to Michael J.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Fox and they said, there's a character. The mayor is
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: named after you. I think your mother would be very proud.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: So had Mayor Randall Winston and uhlaid by the Great
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: Barry box work and with the show Gut. We did
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: the pilot in LA, but Michael was living in New
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: York and said he would only do this series if
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: we took it to New York. So that was the
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: opportunity of a lifetime, you know, change my life. I
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: got the chance to go to New York. Garry took
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: a select group of people and Donald you know Sebastians.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: Do you guys know Sebastian gents.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: We moved.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: We all went to New York with all excitement, like
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: nobody was over anything. Everybody just was into going to
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: the city. You were, How old were you I was?
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: I think I was twenty nine. I think I turned
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: thirty that year. But Bill was. Bill's like a year
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: younger than me, and he had like the first American
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: Express black card and he would say, you know, randall
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: go out and find us in after hours every Friday.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: So we were there'd be lines at these after ours
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: clubs and they're like, you know, absolutely, we don't have
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: any room. I'd be like, you got room now, motherfucker.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Now Now I say, I say, I need two cases
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: of champagne and a private room. And that was just
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: the beginning.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Right now. I got to tell you something. Some of
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: my favorite moments, some of the best moments of my
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: life I've shared with you. Rend you have been present
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: at some of the most special moments, some of the
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: most wildest moments, some of the craziest moments of my
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: life have been with you there.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Everything, everything from partying in Vegas to marrying him and
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: his wife and everything in between. Randall has been there.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: He has been there.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: How many people have you married, Randall?
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: U seventeen successful couples? Donald? What I said? I said,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: you gotta be serious, because everybody I marry stays together? Right?
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: How many? How many people have gotten divorced?
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: Zero?
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: You got a good streak.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: I don't have people messing my streak up. Now.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Now, Randal, if I'm listening to this, I was preparing
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: for this, and I thought, if I'm listening to this
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: and I'm interested in production, but I don't know anything
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: about it. I see in the credits all the time
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: a line producer, but I see exec producer, I see
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: associate producer. I see all these titles. Could you explain
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: to people that I have nothing to do with the
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: business what a line producer does?
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, it is. It's true that the TV credits
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: are lousy with producers, and usually if the credit is
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: line producer or produced by that credit is reserved for
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: the person who is essentially responsible for keeping the train
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: running on time, making sure that you've got the right
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: group people in the right place, making sure that the
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: show is on budget, that it is getting delivered on time,
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: not just within the time constricts of your time slot,
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: but delivered the day that it's supposed to be delivered,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: you know, sort of soup to nuts. That it starts
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: with the prep which is, as it sounds, the preparing
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: of the show. When you first get a little bit
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: of information about the about the series and each episode, you know,
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: you start to break it down with your team. You know,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: how many actors are we going to need, do we
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: need to build sets? Are we going out anywhere? And
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: what is it going to take? And I think that
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: job at its best is a negotiator and a translator.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: You know, that's somebody who you know, oftentimes it was
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: between I'm working between Bill on scrubs, between Bill who
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: created the show, and the studio and the network. So
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: everybody's getting what they need and even when they're not
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: speaking the same language, or figure out what the best
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: thing to accomplish what's in the script is can be
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: accomplished within the box that's been built.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and the line bruisers. Also, if you think about it,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: the keeper of the purse in a sense that when
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: you're directing or show running, you will often think, oh,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I think we should I wrote this big scene. It'd
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: be great to shoot it in this amazing restaurant. And
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: then I want to get a crane outside that's gonna
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: come down here. And then it'd be cool if it
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: was raining outside. And this is when the line producer
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: starts to sweat, when we start to go, wait, we
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: need rain, need rain.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Every every time. Every time Zach got a directing assignment,
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: before there was even a script, he could come here and.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Say, I need a crane exactly exactly. I don't even
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: know what the fucking script says, but I'm gonna need
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: a big ass craan. But so it's the line producer's job,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: almost like a parent, to be like, look, you use
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: the dollar and you got your candy bar. You should
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: have saved it and you could have gotten ice.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Cream, yes, right, you could have. You could have you
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: could have one big thing or two little things.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Right right. And a lot of times it's negotiation, like
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: you like, hey, you know the keeper of the money.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: But in terms of the money, it's not just the
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: camera gear, but how many crew, how many extras are
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to afford, Are you gonna be
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: able to do any overtime? All of that as all
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: the relationship I often have with the line producer. As
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: they say it, think of it like a Chinese food menu,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: in that you're choosing from a myriad of things that
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: you can have, but you can't exceed that budget. So
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: if you do want a big ass crane, then maybe
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: you can't have as many background at the wedding.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: It's so funny that you say that. I, oftentimes it
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: crossed my career have literally made a Chinese menu for
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: directors and producers, you know, because you inevitably get to
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: a point and Bill and I used to have, you
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: know something back then it was it was like the
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: thousand dollars deal, which was once we had locked the budget,
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: he was not allowed to bring me any problems that
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: cost more than one thousand dollars. Like I could figure
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: it out, you know, if it was a thousand or under.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: But you know, you can't be adding stuff once we're
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: once we started rolling.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Now on screen. Back in the day, we would do
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of overtime, which which now people don't really
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: do anymore, right, I mean, on your jobs now, are
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: people pretty much keeping it to twelve hours these days?
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: It depends, really, I mean for the for the most part, yes,
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: but a lot has changed. You know, we did for
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: a big chunk of that show a true single camera show,
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: which is almost all shows have more than one camera
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: rolling at the time now, so you can get more
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: work done within the hours you can get you know,
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: for those who do people you know that just between
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: single and multi like usually on the single camera show,
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: you're getting one angle at a time, shooting one actors
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: close up, and then you turn around and get the
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: other actor, and the more actors in a scene, you know,
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: the more times you're turning, And if you have multiple cameras,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: then you can get multiple shots. But on a show
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: like Mixed Dish, you know, or you know, American Housewife
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: or any show that's got a family, you know, family
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: show as opposed to community, you're up against kid hours.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: So those shows in particular are held to a bricter standard.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Powers I'm gonna be honest with you, I love it
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: when kids are on the show now and you're working
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: the show because you're not going past twelve hours. Dude,
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: you might not even do eight hours that day, you
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? I mean, I love it. I
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: love so I did Emergence this uh this last year.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: It didn't get picked up ABC. Thank you.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: You were great in it.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Donald, by the way, you were great in that show.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: I think we should pour some out for emergence emergents.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: But I remember we had two very young ladies on
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: the show and they were in school, and once they
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: showed up to set, we had the clock was ticking.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: We had eight hours to get them done or they
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: would they turned into a pumpkin.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: And so.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: I used to love that. It would be like, are
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: the kids working today? And they'd be like yeah, And
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: I'd be like, great. That means I'm done before you know,
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: I'm done before the sun goes down. Is when the
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: kids weren't working that you were like, oh my god,
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be here forever.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Will random you.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: See kids on there? You can make it right? Yeah?
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: Right, You'd be like, I can make that eight o'clock
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: movie tonight.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Randall, you and I always got along so well. You know,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: sometimes the relationship between a director and a line prosher
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: could be contentious because the director feels like, oh taking away,
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: you're not you're not working with me, you're not making it,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: you're not helping me realize all the things I want
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: to do. Of course, the line producer has a stressful job.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: You're like, dude, you're killing me. You're so over budget,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: what the hell are you talking about. But but when
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: the two are friends and they feel like, hey, let's
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: work it out, then it then then it never gets contentious.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: But of course sometimes when people don't get along, the
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: line producer and the director don't always like each other.
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: Well, I think that, uh it has been to the
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: great benefit of my career in general. Part of it
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: is just I think the way that I like to
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: work is that the goal is to be symbiotic. Like
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: you know, when people think that it's contentious, it is contentious,
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: but you know, we're all rowing in the same direction.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: You want, you want a great show, you want and
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: comedies in particular, you know, like I think about the episode,
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: not that the episode of Talk About Day, but your
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: episode when you when you go into the puddle and
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: you see, uh.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Se monster, do you see a sea monster? It was
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: not a sea monster rand named Julian.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: Julian.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I love that you said sea monsters. What was the
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: sea monster's name?
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: So that's a perfect example of that script had so
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: much in it. But that was the biggest joke in
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: the show. And you know, we had to call the
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: city and get Diggler and it was the first time
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: I got to use a Jack Cameron and we're like
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: digging holes in the parking lot and creating a swimming
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: pool that we're gonna have to fill in. But but
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: the question was, you know, is this one of the
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: funniest things in the script. What are we what are
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: we gonna give up or combined so that we can
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: keep that and that trusting relationship, you know, with with
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: with the actor, with the director, with the writers, you know,
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: builds that thing that you're talking.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: And Renald, you're the kind of person that was like
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: so on board. You'd be like, oh my god, we
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: have to figure out we have to figure out a way.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: I know because I think that I think that gag,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: which involved building two different small swimming pools to code
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: because the city was not gonna let anyone not do
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: it to code, was one of the most expensive gags
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: and Scrubs history.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: As I recall, yes it was, Yes it was very expensive.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: But that's you're right, Zach. That's a very important point.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: If you have a line producer who's game, and it's
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: like I can figure this out. If you work with me,
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: we can figure this out. You're gonna get some of
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: the best stuff, you know what I mean?
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Of course, of course I was so worried about Randall
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: was he wasn't you know some of these guys and
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: gals are sitting in office and they're rolling your eyes
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: when you walk in. Randon was out there with the jackhammer,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: being like, I can't believe o're building to.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: Totally true?
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: All right, should we get into the episode.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Let's get into the episode. So Randal, this one is supersized.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about that. Very rare. Most episodes thus far
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: in the show are been twenty two minutes without commercials.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: This one is twenty eight, which is a bit big
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: leap to supersize.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: Right, It was a big It was a big issue
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: at the time, this show with the pizza clock as
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: we as we called it. But the network was very
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: contemptous about this episode and they did not rerun it again.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: In certainly not that season, and I don't think for
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: years because being supersized and it's a it's a very
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: thoughtful episode, you know, very emotional goes inside where are
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: where the characters are? And I think at the time,
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: you know, we were still in season one and they
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: wanted it to just to be you know, more JD falling.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, they were like, what are you doing this
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: weird documentary style interludes? I mean, where's JD running into
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: a wall? And you know, but it's a great episode.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: I just want to say. Written by Gabrielle Allen and
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: directed by Lawrence Trilling, who became one of our favorites
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: early on. He then went on to do Pushing Daisies
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: and Parenthood and I just googled now that he's on Goliath.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: But super talented guy.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: I think Lawrence Trilling and I did Felicity together.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: You did? You did? He did? Were we ever on Alias? Done?
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: No?
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: I was never on Alias?
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, well he also did Alias, but yeah, he directed
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Young Donald Faison and Felicity.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: He's a really great guy, really fun, good director. And
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: Gabby got I love her.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Good team, great team, and and I just thought there's
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: a lot of style to this. So so there became
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: this convention a few conventions. There's the pizza clock thing
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: if you look down at the pizza guys, in case
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: you didn't notice, the idea was that it was mimicking
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: a clock. And so as the episode is cutting between
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: that one night of Satura and I in bed, and
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: then back to the few weeks that follow us trying
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: to date, whenever it cuts back the pizzas trying to
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: look like a clock from that night. So there's that
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: sort of gag, the timeline shake up, and then there's
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: these documentary stuff, shaky cam, grainy film, as though we're
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: all being interviewed for a psychologist project on why people
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: become doctors?
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: Right, all right, okay, that's that. I thought that was
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: the next episode, but okay.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: No, that's my bed banter. And beyond that's like inter
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: cutting Salen I and our big epic fuck fest for
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: lack of a.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Better term, I gotta tell you something, man, nobod miss that.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: Let's go back. Are you said the word? And now
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna now we can talk about it. I guess
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: I missed those days. I missed the days when it
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: was just sex all day, you know, before kids, when
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: you could just bone all day, then go out to
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: dinner that night and then bone some more. My wife
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: and I, you know what, we gotta make an appointment

• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Is it in your eye?
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: Cow?
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Dude? I'll be like, it's you think it's a joke,
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: and a lot of stand up comics have made this joke,
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: but it's real. You'll be like, how about sex Thursday?
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: Can we do Thursday? I'm having my hair done right, No, no, no, no,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: no no no. The kid's got zoom all day. I'm

  Speaker 1: Elliott has said in previous episodes that she's never had
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: an orgasm, and she said that she doesn't like sex.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: So is JD the first person to not only bring
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: her to orgasm but show her the wondrous world of
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: epic sex days?
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: I'm sure you would like to think so.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: I think, Yes, I'm not JD Donald, I'm Zach Braff,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: but I'm character of JD. Probably was good in bed.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, in the beginning of it all, JD
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: was kind of a sucker when he's like he almost
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: let her walk out of the house, and she was
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: obviously very much into JD.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know, dude, I disagree. I was watching
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: it with fresh eyes and I was thinking I couldn't
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: read where she was. Was she like, hey, I should go?
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: And then you know, you know what that's like back
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: in the day, you.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: Do hate that shit. I hate that shit? Why to test?
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Why I gotta be tested for? How come you can't
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: just be like, you know what? Maybe, uh if this
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: was a mistake. Was it a mistake though? Or did
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like I remember saying to
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: my wife when she was my girlfriend, like, you know,
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know if this is if
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: this is working out, you know what I mean, and
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: her being like, you don't wait a second, this is
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: the best thing that's ever happened to you. What do
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: you mean you don't know if this is working out?
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: Like that was real talk. The fact that JD almost
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: had her out the door before he was before she
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: turned around and was like, yo, just say you want
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: me to stay and stop being a sucker, stop being
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: a little punk about this. Just say you want me
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: to stay, and I'll stay and we can go have
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: sex again, and then he's finally like, will you stay?
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: She's like, yeah, you gotta pay for that though, because
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: I almost will.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: But don't you remember back in the day when you weren't,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: when you weren't in such a long term relationship, when
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: something's new and you're kind of insecure about it, You're like,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: did this person have as good of fun as I did?
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be the one who put I
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: don't want to put my one. I don't want to
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: be the one who puts myself out there and and
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: and gets dissed. Like you're you're you're in a very
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: vulnerable state. You're like, I kind of like this person,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: do they like me?
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: Well, did I ja?
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: Do you?
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: The character just wasn't he in the friend zone a
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: couple episodes before that? Yeah?
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah they were. They were friend zoned. Yeah, like, uh,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: maybe seven episodes before he gets friend zoned and.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Then he and then we gotta go to break. We'll
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: be right back with the legendary Randall Winster.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Random where instand. We're very excited.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: We're very excited Randall's here. We're talking about sex. JD
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: and Elliott have an epic epic twenty four hours of sex.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: And it seems that JD has found a way to
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: bring Elliott all the way to the Promised Land because
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: she seems to be really enjoying sex.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Well, the fact that they have it like six or
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: seven times is ridiculous. And she even brings up, I'm
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: gonna need a vagina transport.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she says, she said, you av giinant transport, which
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: is a very funny fantasy. Cutting to the guys, uh
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: running through.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Don't go Bucks Cooler.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: Randall was that.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: They should have done the song vagainaa Bucks.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: Randall was vagina transplant something that anyone was worried about
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: getting through the sensors, because it seems pretty pretty risque
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: to have a vagina in a box.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: Yes, I remember there being like some conversation, but I
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: can't remember whether it was whether it was a lot
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: of crimps. But the great thing about Scrubs was that
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: there was always something else to point at, like, you know,
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: another red herring. I was like, well, we have a
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: giant in the box, but he says dick three times
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: two pages later, we'll get rid of that and let
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: us keep the giant.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: So part of Randall's job was was being Bill's liaison
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: to the studio and being like, listen, guys, it's just
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: one vagina in a box. We're not gonna have vaginas
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: in boxes every.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: Week, and and the and the great thing about about
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: the uh, the working with the person. There was a
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: woman I can't remember this if this was Sandy Christmas,
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: it was this Sandy Christmas. It was this very sweet
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: woman who used to have these conversations with so I'd
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: get on the phone and she'd be like, now, Randa,
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: I pack the vagina in the box and you know,
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: and then you later say, Penis you know do we
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: have to have all of that in the show? Yeah.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: And what's funny is they'll often give you they'll often
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: give you a sheet of all their objections and it's
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: a negotiation, and then even when you get it through,
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: they'd be like, Okay, we're fine with the vagina in
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: the box, please do not show a vagina in a box.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Like even shit, You're like, really, guys, you had to
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: write that on the paper, like you think we were
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: gonna cut into a vagina on for NBC in the box.
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: And sometimes they say sometimes they say stuff and you're thinking,
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: oh damn, you're weight dirtier than I thought. Right now,
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: that is not what we meant. This is a true story.
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: We had to go into the effects visual effects and
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: adjust Donald scrubs in a particular scene because they thought
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: were seeing too much of a bob.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, that is how we do, Dan, how about thunder
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: and we do.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Let's have some thunders.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: Applause or as applause from my junk.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: And then Dan, if you wouldn't mind put him?
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: That was I used to do a Loma at the
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: and most of my yes inspired me to just go
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: mm hmm.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: Whenever Nurse Roberts couldn't be at the table, read Randa
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: would would play her. And his favorite part was doing.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: Her speaking of speaking of Aloma. Holy cow, she's amazing
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: in this episode, very funny. Every one of her lines
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: lands hard.
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: White boys? Uh you mean it was a secret. All
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: of that stuff, everything that everything that she said in
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: this episode, I laughed out loud.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Now let's get ready into it right away, you know.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Let's you know, the janitor sees Aloma and she sees him,
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: and she looks at him like, get the fuck out
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: of my way, and Randall Bill is still hanging on
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: to his his his dream that the Janitor was only
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: seen by JD in season one, and we we are
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: Donald and I are detectives that are quickly proving him
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: wrong in every other episode.
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I was. I never into that that that
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: he was a figment of JD's imagination.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: It's mister snuffles.
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean, and I remember he had because
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: there's some episodes later. I remember an episode I directed
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: where he has a group of henchmen played by our
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: grip team, you know, and they are all in it
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: with him.

• 36:45
  Speaker 2: I did not. My friend had calleco Vision, and I
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: remember colleco Vision being so awesome because the video games
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: looked exactly like they look in the arcade. So if
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: we had Donkey Kong it looked like Donkey Kong from
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: the Arcade. Yeah, I thought that.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: Was the thing.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: And you at first do you remember that game?

  Speaker 1: Vision great game system. I felt like a baller because
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: I had it, and uh, you know, I remember that
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: control was like it was like a long rectangle and
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: then there was a circle.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: On the bottom.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not to be confused within television, which I didn't have.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: Or in television. Wow was it in television? It was
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Kalico Vision.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: I start with the Atari twenty six hundred. I remember
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: that everybody had that. Yeah, and then there was Kalkovision.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, Randall, I feel like the guy with the
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: gaming head that you weigh in.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: But this makes me said one hundred years old. I
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: am currently doing a puzzle during COVID that is all
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: of the original video games Atari and like, yeah, so it's.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: I need that puzzle. We we got a Van Goes
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: Starry Night, and we are not even getting anywhere near
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: to starting it. But I feel like if it was
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: the old game consoles, we've had it done already.
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: I'm sending it to you.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: There's an Alf mentioned in this show ALF. I was
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: a huge fan of Alf.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: When I too, Max Right, what do you doing out?
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: The puppet from out of space who loved to eat cats?
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: I remember being a little kid and the trailer teaser
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: for ALF came on and I remember being a little kid,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: my first film critic going that looks so stupid. Cut
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: to me loving Alf, like having alf stuffed animals?
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: What was not to love about ALF? I visited the
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: ALF set, you did, I remember? Yes?
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: That was it raised up so they could have a
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: puppet teer.
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: Yes, And it was like it was. It wasn't at
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: a real stage. It was at uh An warehouse in
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: Culver City.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: Is I Paul Max Wright, who was who played the father,
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: who was an accomplished theater actor and Shakespearean actor and
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: genius act all around, fucking hated it. I think that's
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: part of the lore, is that he absolutely hated doing
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: a puppet show.
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: Now did you did you watch all the Alps. We
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: were religious elf because.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: There's episodes on Mitch. I mean, I'm not ready to
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: do the rewatch podcast.
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: But there's a very special ALF where I remember mostly
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: is crying. During ALF. ALF would to visit the girl
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: in the hospital. It was like, you know, tonight on
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: a very special ALF.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: Do you remember when they would do you remember when
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: they would like back in the day, for those of
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: you who are too young, they when there was a
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: sad like on Scrubs. We had sad episodes all the time,
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: but on the old school sitcoms, they would always warn you,
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: like tonight on a very special silver Spoons, the ricker
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: will the ricker will kill a deer. We recommend and
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: they would go, we recommend parents watch with their children.
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: Do you remember that for sure?
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: But on Scrubs if it was sad, we just would
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: play the theme song a little.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so there was silver Spoons when the wrecker killed
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: the deer. There was different strokes. When Dudley got molested
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: by the bike shop owner, remember that.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: I do remember that, and everything happened to Dudley or Arnold.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and then I don't know what happened on ALF
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: but I don't know if they made the announcement. It
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: must have been serious.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: Special episode of Alf.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Alf learns to touch himself.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: Oh boy, oh boy, but you can't handle it.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: I used to have an alf stuffed animal and uh, well,
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: never mind without that, man, it sound like I fucked
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: the doll. I didn't.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: I just I just it did sound like you were
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: about to say it sounded like you were about to say, yeah,
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: I fucked the doll.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: Did Alf have a tail?
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know. No, no, no, he did not.
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: I don't think so. Well.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: Can you please look up if Alf had a tail?
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: Alf did not have a tail.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: You're feeling really confident about that. You didn't see You
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: didn't see Alf's ask that much.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about how well Johnny does in this episode.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, in the monologue, in the monologue section, everybody's great.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: In the Oh, Joelle, what you look? Your face lit up?
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: Alf does have a tail?
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: Donald, You fucking liar.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: I just don't remember out for the long tail. List No,
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: it's like a dog's tail, and it only because you
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: can see him like he's looking out the window in
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: a single shot. Listen, but I want to see if
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: the album I barely remember episodes of Scrubs. How am
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: I supposed to remember Alf?
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: He does have a tail, so I have a memory.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: I think what I was trying to say with the
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: stuffed animals, I used to pull Alf's tail through his
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: legs to make it look like it was Alb's peenis.
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, all right, all right is good in
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: this episode?
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, he's not only that.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: Before we do that, let's go back a little bit. Uh,
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: I didn't know that Kelso's actual name was Kelso Kelso.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: Kelsanovitch. Yeah, well, I don't think that comes up again.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: But this is the first episode where he introduces his
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: wife's name, Enid.
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: Right, And I thought that was just it's very interesting that,
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: you know, he changed his name to fit in to
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: be to sound more American. So instead of kel Sonovich,
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: it then became Kelso.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: I think everybody did, including uh, Donald Faison and Judy
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: and Sarah. Everybody was great in these monologue sections. They
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: were Oh, it was kind of a cool. It's funny
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: because that documentary style became very common in shows like
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: the Office and and Modern Family that were doing sort
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: of the shaky cam documentary style was not a style
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: we did on Scrubs. But because of this segment, I
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: don't know why the interviewer was so hirky jerky with
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: the damn camera. I mean, put the fucking thing on
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: a tripod and calm down. But it was the interviewer
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: was making like his own shaky cam TV show. But
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: I thought everyone it seemed like the mandate was that
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: they were not going to have cuts in them and they
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: would all be long takes. And yeah, and I thought
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: everyone did a really nice job in those scenes.
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: Do you call it? They prepared us for that, because
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: the fact that I knew my lines like that was.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: Very weird yourself.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: I'm watching it and I'm like, they're gonna cut soon,
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: because there's no way I remember all of this.
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: We talked about it a lot, and we knew it
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: was gonna be one take. If I remember correctly, those
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: are half the monologue that we did. I mean, part
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: of the reason why the episode is so long is
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: because those chunks. And I remember Johnny C I feel
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: like he was disappointed because there was another long take.
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: You know. So even though this episode is what do
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: we say? Twenty four eight, twenty eight, twenty eight, I
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: think the editor's cut was closer to forty.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Ye, And there's a really cool section later on where
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: Donald and Judy are side by side and they're still
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: not cutting, so they were able to time out. I
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: don't know, was Judy in the room reading with you? Donald,
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: do you remember?
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: No?
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: That was it. They gave us earwigs, I think for that, because.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Earwig, for those who don't know, is a tiny ear
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: piece that goes in your ear that you can't see,
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: the camera can't see.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: I remember rehearsing it with the voice track. I think
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: they recorded Judy first. I could be wrong, though, I
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: think they recorded Judy first and then I went in
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: after her to record.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Well, the timing of that was perfect because you you know,
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: you had to stall, so you were like thinking and
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: then you took a sip of your water and like
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: it totally looked natural, but it was. It was well
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: done by by Larry Trilling trilling Man.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: That was one of the That was one of the
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: highlights in my notes that I wrote. You know, this
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: was his first episode to direct for us, and we
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: gave him a pretty you know, you guys gave him
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: a big randall and you and Bill gave him a
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: pretty big episode to produce. I wondered if it was
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: ever like, Yo, what money do I get to make
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: this go easier for me? You know what I mean?
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: Like, I'm guessing he was told that it was going
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: to be a long one because right Randall or was
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: it was decided after the fact.
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: It was decided after the fact. We didn't know it
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: was going to come out, but we knew from timing
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: the table read that we were up against it and
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: that we didn't want to make cuts in those you know,
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: soliloquy pieces, you know, directly to the camera. For some reason,
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: I feel like production wise, there was just a lot
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: of talk about the pizza clock, like getting the right
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: angle and how much pizzad it take out. And you know,
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: we were we were in that bedroom for so long,
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: which was a tight set.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and Sarah and I, you know, we were friends
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: and we really loved each other. But that was a
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: very bizarre thing to have that much fake sex all
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: over one set for many days on end.
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, not just that you guys were very much
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: in each other's face. I was going to ask you,
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: you guys made out a lot in this episode. Yeah,
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: how awkward was that? For you.
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: I think it was uh, you know, you always hear
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: actors talking about, oh it's you know, it's all very
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: you know, choreographed, and it's not weird at all. It
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: is weird. You know, there's everyone standing around, you're making
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: out with your good friend. Uh, it's you know, it was.
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: It was bizarre. I remember being because also a lot
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: of most times it's like, okay, there's a quick makeout scene.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: It's a TV show, you know, That's that's all it
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: ever is. This was like, you know, wrestling around and
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: groping each other and for days. So it was.
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: Weird face to face and not only face.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: To Fanaka Donald, you gotta have Banaka. We had a
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: boom man named Kevin what was his last name, Randall?
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: Do you remember?
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: I can't figure it right now.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: Also hires the whole crew everybody, so he should really
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: know Kevin's last name. But Kevin used to see that
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: we all used to have banaka. This is like back
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: in the day still that we had like spray the
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: aerosol banokam and uh we made a joke like, oh,
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: it'll be great because the boom mike's right over your head.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: We're like it'd be great if there was a boom,
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: if there was banaka on the boom, because then we
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: can just reach up, pull the boom mic down and
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: grab it off. Next day we show up and he
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: had velcrowed a banaka to the end of the boom
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: mic not not the mic itself, the stick and poll
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: and Kevin santy, thank you and uh and and literally
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: he wasn't just a joke. He kept it up there
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: for like months, and whenever you need a banaka, you
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: just reach up, grab the boom pole, pull it off
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: to a spray. They'll crow it back and stick it off.
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: I used to go crazy with the banaka because I
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: felt like maybe if I spray enough in my mouth
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: the aarosow and the freaking mint will get me high enough.
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: When your weed was wearing off. So Donald, this weed
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: had worn off and he was on set too long.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: He's like, let me try and get high on banaka.
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: I remember one day Randall came into the room. Randall,
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: tell me if you remember this, and you were like
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: Donald and we were on set and you were like, Donald,
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: wake up. Do I need to splash cold water in
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: your face and something? Wake ass up? When you high
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: or something no no, no, no no no no no.
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: But in my mind, I was like, they know, they know.
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: It was probably because you were taking too long to
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: get to set. No.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: The only time I took a long time to get
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: to set was when Grand Theft Auto Vice City came out.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: And I remember one time they were trying to get
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: me the set and I was on my way out
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: the door and Randall's pushing my door in as I'm
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: pulling it and I was like hi, and he was like,
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: get upstairs, random.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: You had to be bad cop.
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: I had to get with the gripe. Yeah, grab people,
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: steer them. I remember sending a PA to your house
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: one time, Zach. Somebody had to climb over the fence
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: to get you to like wait.
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: It was a really bad moment. Know what happened was
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: the power. What had happened was the power went out.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: The power went out in my in my on my
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: street or my neighborhood, and so the alarms didn't go off,
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: and and also the phones didn't work, and so I
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: woke up to a PA knocking on my window, and
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: which is the worst sight if you're an actor. It's
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: like the most horrible feeling. And I remember getting to
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: set really late and Bill looked at me and he's like, no, no,
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: don't worry, we'll split the fifty grand.
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: I think during scrubs I had a real moment of
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: peace about producing, which was I gave up on the
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: idea of everything being okay for more than five minutes
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: at a time, because nothing's ever always okay. It's like,
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: and nobody comes to my door to be like everything's great.
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, somebody took my candy. We don't
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: have any film. You know, somebody's late.
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: Did we ever run out of film?
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: We came, We came close. We used a lot of
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: short ends one particular week because part of the reason
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: that we were able to fly under the radar financially,
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: and one of the reasons that that show was one
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: of the last shows to be on film is because
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: we shot on sixteen. We shot Super sixteen, not thirty five,
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: So we cut our production costs, you know, by a lot,
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: but we made a great print. I mean, we showed
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: that show on a DJA in the GGA screening room
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: and held up.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: So yeah, those of you who don't know, this was
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: one of the last shows still being shot on film,
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: especially sixteen millimeter film. Probably at the time. Probably nothing
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: is right now, I would guess, unless it's like a
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: big budget feature on Netflix or something. But most people
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: don't do that anymore anyway, And it's one of the
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: reasons why people always ask how come there's no blu
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: ray and high resolution sixteen by nine version of the show.
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: It's because when we made it, we didn't and we
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: were done with it. No one anticipated all this streaming stuff,
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: so it was never like upres to be four K video.
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: Right, They didn't cut the film and then we do it,
• 52:34
  Speaker 3: and some of the film that we used you can't
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: even get anymore. A lot of the flashback scenes I think,
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: I think you'll see it in season one are shot
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: on something that was called reversal film, which was like
• 52:47
  Speaker 3: from the Vietnam War. It could had this look of.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why they have a specific texture, though in
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: fact there's different clearly a different film stock being shot
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: for these interview sequences, because they're very grainy and have
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: a different color sort of palette than the show itself.
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: When did we switch When did we switch over to chip?
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: Then when did we switch over to digital?
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: Because I know, did you do it in season nine.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: It would only be in season nine.
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: I think it was before season nine, to be honest
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: with you.
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: I don't think so. I mean because because it was
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: talked about so much shows, because NBC had made this
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: mandate that everybody was going digital. But then when they
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: looked at our numbers, they were like, hey, keep doing
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: what you're doing. Like I think, I think maybe in
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: that season nine we went digital, Like I honestly can't
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: remember us the top of my head.
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: I remember that. I remember that that was very interesting
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: when you would see them changing mags or somebody getting
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: the film ready for the day and having to put
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: the film in a mag so that it could fit
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: on the camera and reaching into this like bag. It
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: looked like a bag, is what it looked like.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: Well, it was a picture like a miniature camping tent
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: like that would fit on a desktop, and it was
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: blacked out so that they could put their hands in
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: there and not expose the film while loading them of
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: camera magazines.
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: I used to I used to be like, I remember
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: when we switched over to I guess it was season
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: nine where we switched over to CHIP and I remember
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: being like, this is the easiest thing in the world.
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: Why didn't we do this before? Like we could do
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: takes for days and days and days. All I remember
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: all my fuck ups, every time I missed a line
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: or forgot a line and everything like that. I remember
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: being like, how much how much more room do we
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: have on the mag before before you know what I mean,
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: before we're out and we have to and we have
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: to change the mag again.
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: You'd have eleven you'd have about eleven minutes on a
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: sixty millimeter magazine and uh and and you'd be like
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: trying to trying to get it, be like, how much
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: how much more fun we got before you roll out?
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: I got it? I got I got it. Let's go.
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: Let's don't go.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: You can go forever.
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: Now you'd be like, don't cut, don't cut, we gotta cut,
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: we gotta cut. We only got like nineteen feet all right.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: If I cut. When I say to Sarah, we're gonna
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: need a stool sample, not for medical reasons, my robot
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: needs food. I made that, I'm proud to say, and
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: Sarah cracked up at it. And it's so random and weird,
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: but I love it. Okay, I gotta feed my robot
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: yo poo, pooh.
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody's pooh, patient pooh, patient poof for the rover.
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: It all comes down to pooh.
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: And I laughed out loud when Sarah is seventeen oh four.
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: Sarah is making fun of my laugh because she's like
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: already over me, and she's.
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: Like, yeah, oh my god, that is so funny that
• 55:27
  Speaker 3: she does a funny impression of you, because I mean
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: that laugh has got a lot of genuine laughs with
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: the silly JD laugh all through the season. Yeah.
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: I feel like that's how every I think that's how
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: every relationship should be. What you see is what you get,
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Unfortunately, unfortunately what you see
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: and what you get sometimes you think you want it
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: and then eventually it makes you want to kill the
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: person what it turns out to, which turns out to
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: be with Elliott and JD. She loved the laugh in
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: the beginning, Oh, I love it so cute, and then
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: at the end of the show she's like, fuck that laugh, dude,
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: laugh like that again one more time, I dare you.
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: It's like, say what again?
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: Say again, motherfucker, say what one more time?
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: I know I hear you. Isn't that so sad? Though?
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: When a relationship goes sour and all the things you
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: thought were so adorable you now just fucking hate.
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was my life back in the day. Oh,
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: he's got such potential.
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: We have some guests here, Randall. So we have a
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: guest that come on the show. Randal, I know that
• 56:31

  Speaker 2: So Randall listens to the podcast.
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: He does. I don't know he does.

• 56:43

  Speaker 6: beginning of March when I brought Bobby to the airport
• 58:21
  Speaker 6: to take her flight to go to the UK and
• 58:24
  Speaker 6: move there.
• 58:25
  Speaker 3: Ah.
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: So you've been apart for a long time. I just
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: miss each other.
• 58:28
  Speaker 8: Yes, a lot, a lot. That's why I also asked
• 58:32
  Speaker 8: you to do this meeting, because I knew that it
• 58:36
  Speaker 8: was very important to her. It is important also for me.
• 58:39
  Speaker 8: But she had a very rough time, so oh well, we're.
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: Here to cheer her up. I'm so glad that you
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: called in because not only do you have the legendary
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: Donald Faizon here, and he's always funny. You have Randall Winston,
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: who was our line producer, but you may know him
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: as Leonard the security guard. And also he played Death.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: And you know, we've gotten a lot of questions for
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: Death on our Instagram pages. So finally you can ask
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: Death any question you have.
• 59:06
  Speaker 6: Oh, that's wonderful, thayed.
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: Much Mouth from the Yeah, you did play much Mouth
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: from Freaking the Fat Out Jump.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: Yes, three different you had three different parts.
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: Rand you had that big ass helmet on your head too.
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: All right, so let's get it.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, ladies, ask a question.
• 59:29
  Speaker 6: I would like to start it because I am in
• 59:31
  Speaker 6: a theater company as well, so sometimes we argue about
• 59:36
  Speaker 6: the best ways to perform. You know, when you have
• 59:40
  Speaker 6: to feel in character and you have to feel what
• 59:46
  Speaker 6: your character is feeling in order to act. So I
• 59:50
  Speaker 6: was wondering whether sometimes you had some difficulties with that
• 59:55
  Speaker 6: and to make a very strange scene you couldn't really
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 6: feel what JD or Turk or Death or Leonard.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Bobby, thank you for including him.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 6: My pleasure, So if you had to find some strange
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 6: way to perform. I thought about this question when I
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 6: was listening to your podcast last week, and Donald said
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 6: when he had to memorize the line, you need the
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 6: surgical counsole, so you had to make a song about it.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 6: So if if my question is not about memorizing things,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 6: it's more about like acting the feeling.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, you know, let.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: Leonard go first. When I strapped on the arm.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: Here's here's the thing. You you work hard. You work
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: so hard to try to feel everything, and that's what
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: comes with being an actor. You're gonna work hard hard
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: and then you've ever worked in your life to try
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: to feel it. But when the camera rolls and you
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: don't feel it, you better act the shit out of it,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Because at the end of
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: the day, it still has to be made. So you're
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: gonna work your hard is to try and feel the
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: emotion and find the emotion and pinpoint what it is
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: that you're You know, you'll make notes and you'll do
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: all of that stuff, But there comes a time when
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: you're doing it where all of that preparation and stuff
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: isn't helping, you know what I mean, And so when
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: it's not helping, it's time for you to act the
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: shit out of it. And that's just how it goes,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: I would say there's times when it's really just natural,
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: and then there's times where it feels forced and you
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: don't feel present. You can see the cameraman and you
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: can see the crew, and your stomach's growling because you're hungry,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: and you know, you had an argument with someone in
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: your family and all these things that happen in any job,
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: and you and you're in your head and you're distracted,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: and the trick with acting is to always be as
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: present as possible. The good news about acting on film
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: and television is you really only need to do it
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: in spurts because you're you're you're trying to shine for
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: your other actor, but also when the camera's on you,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: when it's on when you're no matter what the shot is.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: When you're doing a play, you have to maintain that
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: for for two hours and and scene real. But with
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: with film and TV acting, the real challenge is to
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: get it in spurts enough so that it will cut
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: together and be believable. But but yeah, it can be
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: really it can be really challenging, especially when you're there's
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: so much distraction. You know, there's phones ringing, and there's
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: a helicopter overhead, and and you're upset about something in
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: your private life. You know, it's it's it's a real
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: challenge to do everything you can to be present in
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: the moment.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: And when you can't be present, that's what that's what
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: acting is.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: Then you fake it till you make it, fake it
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: till you make it. Now, Randall, when you were playing Leonard,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: did you did you didn't? Didn't Leonard have a love interest?
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: By the way, Oh, yes, I had to miss it
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 3: was a scene. Yes she was?
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: Uh And wasn't she a fellow security guarden?
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: No, no, she was. Maybe she was a candy striper
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 3: or something. I just.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, Robbie knows she was an old Yes, that was
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: I had to Were you open mouth kissing her?
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: That was specifically requested.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: By her? Was it in the script?
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 3: That parts a little foggy? But you know, I think.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: Robbie's question, how did you maintain being president in the
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: moment when you were kissing the senior citizen?
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 3: You know what, Robbie, I should have been listening and
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 3: I've been listening to her.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you were listening to her mouth? Okay, ladies, good question, Yes,
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: go ahead with an one Donald left. He was so
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: offended by that question he left.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 8: Okay, So my question is we watched Scrubs a lot
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 8: of time, and the first time we watched it we
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 8: were just teenagers, and so we watched it in Italian.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 8: So I wondered, have you ever listened to yourself dubbed
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 8: in other languages such as Alan or Spanish or Japanese.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate how they dubbed me in Spanish and
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: Italian and stuff like that. I never have a deep voice.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 5: I'm always like, yeah, I prefer your voice.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: It's funny is that in most countries, when you become
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: a known actor, they pick the same actor to always
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: do you. So if Donald's in one, if he's in
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: Scrubs and then he goes off to do another film
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: that is not even to do with Scrubs, it's usually
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: the same actor being Donald. And I hate that.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: I hate that that one person is like, oh no,
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: was he playing in this? Oh, don't worry about it.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: I did him on Scrubs. I got this.
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: So to Donald's to Donald's dismay, that voice will always
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: be his voice.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: That pisses me off.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, I have I've heard myself in almost so
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: many voices traveling around there, especially when the show was
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: on NonStop. We'd travel around the world and you turn
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: on the TV and there you were speaking German. It
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: was very funny. I remember, Uh, then there was a
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: thing where we had Germans in the show Herman the
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: German right with the with the balloon things. And then
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: I remember in Germany they had to change where they
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: were from because it made no sense that their language
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: was different, like you know, so you know, like think
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: about it. If the show has a character that's speaking
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: of the language, and all of a sudden, the show's
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: dubbed into that language, they then have to switch that
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: person's language, so it doesn't make sense.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: I think we made them Belgium.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: Yes, I think you're right. No, Randall, how do you
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: feel as being dubbed as Death and Leonard.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: As long as my fan base all?
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: Did you ever hear? Have you ever heard yourself dubbed
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 2: in other languages?
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 3: Randall? I have not.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: The good thing about dubbing Death is that you don't
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: see his mouth moves, so it doesn't look bad exactly.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: I prefer subtitles, but they don't. They don't do that.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: A lot of countries just dub it.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 2: I don't prefer subtitles. I do not like subtitles.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: You know you'd rather be dubbed.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a I'm a very poor reader. So having
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: to read subtitles.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: Does your poor screen? Does your dyslexia? I've never asked
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: you this before, but does that make you less likely
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: to watch subtitled films?
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 4: Uh?
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: No, you know, a good movie is a good movie,
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: no matter what, even with a learning disability, even if
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: it is written on the screen. My dyslexia isn't so
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: bad that I can't keep up right.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: I just never asked you. I wondered if you if
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: you said, ah, fuck, it's be paying the ass for
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: me to read these subtitles.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: Or no, I would though I would prefer not to read.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: I'd prefer to listen to a dubbed mix. Right, do
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: you guys have another question?
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, you're giving them three because they're separated sisters.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 2: They're separated sisters. This is the first time they've talked
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: to each other since March.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: Right, they're using us. They don't care about scrubs. They
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: just want to, you know, get on our zoom and
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: talk to each other.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 2: Like I did a show back in a day called
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: free to Be a family, and we did a space
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: bridge to Russia and this is like our space bridge
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: between the UK and Italy.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: Was that like free to be? Was that like free
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: to be you and me?
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was free to be you and me.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: We're we're gonna have to see free to be You
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: and Me song one day.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: We're free to be I could say in a Russian
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: glee weebeat e e t t E glee. Weeat nos sennoy, Right, Wow,
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: we're free to be you and me. You and me
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: were free to be a family.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: I only know a little Russian from the Billy Joel
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: Coleopt album when he played Ussia and he said Milly
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: Joe and the crowd went crazy.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: I know that because I got to rap We're free
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: to be you and me with the Fat Boys. There
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 2: a lot of people don't remember the Fat Boys, but
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: one of them was an amazing beat boxer, and he
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: beat boxed while I rapped.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 3: Anyway, So if you guys have another do you ever
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 3: answer any any any calls on the scrubs phone that
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 3: were from out of the country.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: No, I never answered any.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: When we did this episode with call Turk and we
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: had cal Turk. We had to get a real phone line,
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: and Bill thought it would be I don't know if
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: it was you or Bill Randall, but said, you know,
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: rather than do a five five five number, let's get
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: a real number and have it all ring on a
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: cell phone. And so the cell phone was in the
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: Scrubs production office and it would just ring all the time,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: and when you were randomly just walking through and you
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: had a minute to kill, you just answer it and
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: talk to fans because it would just ring NonStop, right.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: Done stop for like five years. And we kep the
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 3: map and we put pins in it, you know, every
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 3: time we would get calls.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was cool. It's all over the world, all right, ladies,
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: one last question, go ahead.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 5: That's the thing.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 6: I started to really watch the show as well during
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 6: this quarantine because my boyfriend was with me and he
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 6: never watched Scrubs before, so I wanted to rewatch it
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 6: with him, and we watched it on Amazon Prime. And
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 6: I noticed the thing that you mentioned sometimes in the
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 6: podcast that they changed a few songs, especially one it
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 6: really pissed me off they changed it. It was the
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 6: one in the second season when j D and Elliott
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 6: kiss again and they start again and it's dreaming of you,
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 6: of the choral and I was so waiting for that scene,
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 6: and when it arrived, the song was a different one.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 6: So I was so pissed off.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: And we are too.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So I I was wondering whether you have some
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 6: one song or two that you really really like and
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 6: you're attached to it, you know, in one seat of Scrubs,
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 6: and you would really be angry if someone changed.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: Wow. Good question.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, anytime Josh Rayden did music on the show,
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: if that got taken off of the show, I would
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 2: be very upset. One because Josh is a very close
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 2: body of mine. And two his songs it seems like
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: were made for the episodes of Scrubs, you know what
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: I mean. Like, I don't know if Zach and Josh
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: had a thing where Zach would be like, yo, I
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 2: need you to write a song about this, and he'd
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: be like, I got it.
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: No. But I mean the example that comes to mind
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: the same thing with me is is Robbie is Josh's song?
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: Because you know we've told this on the podcast before,
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: but when he wrote that song Winter that played at
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: Benefaer's character's funeral, it was the first song you'd ever written,
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: but he didn't have. Everyone was like, oh my god,
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: this is amazing. Where's your album? He's like, album, this
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: is the only time ever written. So that one was
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: particularly special to all of us because Josh was our friend.
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: He started playing guitar late in life. He wasn't someone
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: who played as a kid, and all of a sudden,
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: you know, with the thanks to Bill putting him in
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: the show, his career blew up and he travels, you know,
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: when the world is not under lockdown. He travels all
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: around the world. And you guy should see him when
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: he comes to Italy because you'll see you recognize a
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: lot of his music that was in scrubs. Another person
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: I want to just mention was Colin Hay, who was
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: really special for the show. And yeah, we're trying to
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: get brandall. I need your help. By the way, the
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: fans are all listening. Yes, I need to get Colin's
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: information because we'd like to have him on for the
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: episode he was on in season two.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, I get you. Whatever I had is my last contact.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 3: But Colin was a real friend of the show and
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: fun and funny and had a good sense of humor
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: about himself. There was a song I think it's in
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 3: this season, the Christmas episode in Donald you are running
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: and we play Centerman. Yeah, that song fels was super
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 3: powerful in the episode. And and we were all disappointed
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: when songs got changed out, particularly in those first couple
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: of seasons, because we were sort of like the bastard
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 3: step child over there and like always held to a
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: very strict low budget number. We licensed a lot of
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 3: songs not for forever. You know, when you license a
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: song may have something called in perpetuity and all of
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 3: the media that is now known or yet to be
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: figured out, and you can keep the song in. So
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: there's one and two. The music wasn't licensed that way,
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 3: so we had to make some of those decisions about
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 3: which baby kill.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 2: Say.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: I always assumed it was that I didn't know. What
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: you're implying is that as the seasons go on, you
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: then did shot started doing contracts that would cover streaming,
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: but no one knew what streaming was at the.
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 9: Time, exactly exactly, So like the first couple of seasons,
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 9: the first couple of seasons, if the licensing has run
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 9: out and then and they didn't renegotiate or sign on
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 9: to continue the licensing.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: The network automatically just changed the song.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean I actually had to sit with music
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: editor and music licensing for like a week or so
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 3: after the seasons were over in the summertime to figure
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 3: out like what songs were. Oh.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 1: I always wondered who was who was putting these songs on.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: We've we talked about that on the podcast that you
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: don't listen to, But we always wondered, what what intern?
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: What intern somewhere is choosing these like second best songs.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 3: It's it was an exercise and killing babies like everything.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 3: It was great. But they're like, they're like, you absolutely
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 3: cannot have all of this. You know what do you
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 3: want to save? Right?
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna have Center Man forever. Wow, all right, ladies,

• 1:13:52

  Speaker 2: fun I don't remember. Okay, like most episodes we've watched
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 2: so far, when watching this, I didn't remember any of it.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: And I thought that was the cutest thing. I thought
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 2: Turk and Carla was so cute and so on point
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: for the joke when JD's like, you know, couples go
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 2: through this, this is what happens. Name show me a
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: happy couple, and then away you see Turk and Carla
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: enjoying themselves.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, that was wonderful.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: And they're so sweet together. I mean, you just you
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 1: just love them. And then especially of course, when you
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: cut to the documentary footage thing and they're you know,
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: and they're being so adorable and and and both saying
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: how much they love each other.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 2: No, and you're rooting for them yeah yeah, yeah, and
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: not necessarily for Elliott and j D in this episode,
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 2: even though it starts off where you're rooting for them.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 2: You can tell, uh, once it gets to the bad times,
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 2: you're like, wow, these guys really aren't good for each other.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 2: Went sour so quick though, very well, you only have
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 2: a half an hour to tell the story.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: No, I'm saying like, in the world of the show,
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: they dated for like in two weeks and then they
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: were like, this isn't working.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 3: But I think that was acision by Bill because he wanted,
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 3: you know, he didn't want to have that protracted will
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 3: they Yeah, they will, they won't they the friends thing,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: you know, and.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: Then he ended up doing it anyway.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 2: Yes, well, but that's it works well even at the end, right,
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 2: But even at the end of the episode, you say,
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: you know that the therap do I think it'll work?
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 2: I do. And JD's right. JD's right, it does work.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: It just doesn't work at that moment in time. In
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: the long run, in the in the grand scheme of things,
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 2: these two are meant to be together.
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: So sad though I was, I was sad watching it
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: that the two people who love each other who can't
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: I'm just a sucker for unrequited love and and love
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: that cannot be And here's two people that we want
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: to be together, but they can't.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: But that's when Harry met Sally. Like you said, that's it,
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: That's when Harry met Sally all over again, you know
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 2: what I mean? Like, that's such one of my favorite
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 2: that's first of all one of my favorite movies Billy
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: Crystal and Meg Ryan. But that story is great, you know.
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: It reminds me of that Fiona Apple lyric when she says,
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: only kisses on the cheek from now on.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 7: And in a little woly they have to wave, no, no,
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 7: all right, if I need you, I'll just use your
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 7: simple name.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: Keep going. Finish it.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 2: Only kisses on the cheek from now on and in
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: a little while, we'll only have to wave.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: That's so fucked up. They don't have to wave. Hey,
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: how you doing? Hey?
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 2: I remember breaking up with someone and then going to
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 2: give them a kiss and they gave me the cheek,
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: and being like, yeah, that's probably where what I should.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 2: We should probably gets on a cheek from one one
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, and now I just wave.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: The last thing I want to say is that when
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: I liked how Judy a her delivering and also the writing.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: When she she ends the documentary section and she says
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: he seems to like who I am and I just
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: thought that was so sweet, Like, you know, all bullshit aside,
