Speaker 1: Gang. Forgive me for the way I'm dressed. I know
Speaker 1: we're recording to Zach. You look spiffy, Joel. You look wonderful. Daniel,
Speaker 1: you are a lifesaver and you look great. You look healthy.
Speaker 1: You look like you're having a lot of fun in
Speaker 1: New York. With your blurred background.
Speaker 2: We're doing okay.
Speaker 1: I have been in my animation studio for three days.
Speaker 1: The wife has not seen me. I've been I haven't showered. Really.
Speaker 1: I had my buddy elder Son come from He's worked
Speaker 1: in many studios before, and he's come to the crib
Speaker 1: and he's officially hung lights for me. My animation. We
Speaker 1: finished at We were supposed to record it one point thirty.
Speaker 1: We finished at one twenty nine, and I gathered everything
Speaker 1: and ran up at been this motherfucker and I I
Speaker 1: was late. But hey, I'm gonna tell you something right now.
Speaker 1: You ain't never gonna see like. Look, I've learned so
Speaker 1: much in the past three days about lighting, which is
Speaker 1: something Zach, I know you know a little bit about
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know anything about it, Dan
Speaker 1: l I don't know if you know anything about it, Joelle,
Speaker 1: but it means so much to.
Speaker 3: You.
Speaker 1: Know, creating something and or it just looks flat and
Speaker 1: depth of field and all of that stuff. All of
Speaker 1: these things fall into play, and it's been an awesome experience.
Speaker 1: And thank you for letting me share that. I can
Speaker 1: see how excited you. We're glad that my wife said
Speaker 1: that shit too. She was like, I can see how
Speaker 1: excited you are. I walked by and you sounded like
Speaker 1: a little fucking geek.
Speaker 2: Well, not everyone has a passion that they love as
Speaker 2: much as you love stop motion animation. So I think
Speaker 2: we're all very happy for you. Thank you very much,
Speaker 2: even if it makes you fifteen minutes late with no idea.
Speaker 1: I deserve it. I deserve it.
Speaker 2: The audience is lucky that we're not going to give
Speaker 2: them the full Sarah Chalk experience. We're going to cut
Speaker 2: out the fifteen minutes you just needed to help set
Speaker 2: stop recording.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Tell me about it. What have you been doing.
Speaker 2: I've been directing the TV show Shrinking, and it's really
Speaker 2: fun and great. I really loved it. The episodes are
Speaker 2: so I directed episodes three and four this year and
Speaker 2: I'm done. I'm gonna start editing next week. And I
Speaker 2: had so much fun.
Speaker 1: Tony Harrison's board anecdotes or anything.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you his story. You'll laugh at that. I
Speaker 2: he's he really likes me, and he's very nice to me,
Speaker 2: and we get along. This time, I bonded with him
Speaker 2: more and he it's I still get giddy when he
Speaker 2: says my name, which is just funny because just Zach went.
Speaker 2: But when he calls across the set and he has
Speaker 2: a question.
Speaker 1: He's like Zach.
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god, he says my name. But
Speaker 2: I'll tell you a funny story. I was wearing these
Speaker 2: really loud Gucci shoes sneakers that I had bought in
Speaker 2: Vegas after I lost in Blackjack. I was with Bill
Speaker 2: and I got crushed in Blackjack, and I was like,
Speaker 2: feeling like such a loser. I was like, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go buy stupid expensive sneakers. And I went and bought
Speaker 2: these very loud Gucci sneakers because I do I don't
Speaker 2: really dress I don't dress flashy at all. I wear
Speaker 2: just pretty much the same three things every day. But
Speaker 2: I do like loud, fucking weird sneakers anyway. So I'm
Speaker 2: wearing these on set and Harrison goes, what's the story
Speaker 2: with these sneakers, and I go, I was actually in
Speaker 2: Vegas with Bill and he won like all this money
Speaker 2: in blackjack and I got crushed and I was like
Speaker 2: bummed out. So I went and bought these at the
Speaker 2: Gucci store and he goes and those cheered you up.
Speaker 4: He's real Harrison.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Harrison didn't understand. I'm sure Harrison understands retail therapy.
Speaker 2: He just didn't understand why those particularly loud Gucci sneakers
Speaker 2: were retail therapy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're getting to know the real Harrison for it.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows. Everybody else who doesn't have the privilege of
Speaker 1: getting to hang out with him frequently knows the freaking persona.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, You're seeing vulnerability and all
Speaker 1: that stuff. That's I envy that. I envy that about.
Speaker 1: I envy that because you got that with Morgan, you
Speaker 1: got that with Harrison. Yeah, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: You you Michael Michael Caine, Yeah, fucking you know the list, like.
Speaker 2: Work with some legends. I gotta say, Harrison's just so cool,
Speaker 2: and he's so good on the show. The scripts are
Speaker 2: so good this year, and he's just incredible and and
Speaker 2: what's cool about an actor like that is, you know,
Speaker 2: first time through, they're basically like where do you want
Speaker 2: me to stand? Pretty much this time it was more like,
Speaker 2: felt way more collaborative, like what do you think should
Speaker 2: it be more of this or this? And that's just
Speaker 2: that's when it gets really cool.
Speaker 1: I love it. That's so cool, bro, Yeah, that's so
Speaker 1: fucking cool. I mean, we can't talk about some of
Speaker 1: the stories that you told me off camera, I mean
Speaker 1: off but just some of the things you've said, just
Speaker 1: you know, I've already gone to friends and been like
Speaker 1: and then Zach said he said this, and fucking when
Speaker 1: Zach told me that, oh my god, my heart melted,
Speaker 1: like just it's just so fucking awesome, and I go, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm really happy for you, but also fuck your sound machines. Zach.
Speaker 1: I wanted you to come.
Speaker 2: I wanted you to come visit, but that just never
Speaker 2: seemed to work out.
Speaker 1: No, I don't think I could handle myself.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that you'd behave either. The other
Speaker 2: thing is I want to just say to the words,
Speaker 2: have a movie coming out. I think when this airs,
Speaker 2: it'll be out. It's a movie. It's gonna be I
Speaker 2: think it's in like fifty theaters in the US, but
Speaker 2: in a lot more in Canada. It's a movie I
Speaker 2: made with Vanessa Hudgens called French Girl. And but anyway,
Speaker 2: you most likely will be able to get it on
Speaker 2: demand wherever you buy a rent movies like iTunes or
Speaker 2: Amazon or whatever. And it's really cute. It's like to
Speaker 2: Meet the Parents kind of romantic comedy where I'm going
Speaker 2: to propose to my girlfriend. I'm absolutely in love with her,
Speaker 2: and she's French Canadian and she gets a job offer
Speaker 2: in her home city of Quebec City, and I think, oh,
Speaker 2: that's where I'll propose in front of her whole family.
Speaker 2: I'll make it so dramatic and romantic, and we go
Speaker 2: up there. And while I'm up there meeting her French,
Speaker 2: beautiful French family that live on a farm and they're
Speaker 2: lovely people, I'm a little bit of a fish out
Speaker 2: of water. I don't speak any French. And while I'm there,
Speaker 2: I learned that the woman who's offering her this chef position,
Speaker 2: played by Vanessa Hudgens, used to be her lover and
Speaker 2: she wants to get my girlfriend back. And so it
Speaker 2: becomes like Vanessa and I competing over this amazing, beautiful
Speaker 2: French woman.
Speaker 1: Why y'all gotta compete?
Speaker 2: Hilarity ensues, Yeah, why y'all gotta compete? Well, I don't
Speaker 2: think either one of us wants to share the amazing woman.
Speaker 1: I'm not a sharer either. I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 2: And anyway, it's really cute, it's really funny. It's kind
Speaker 2: of meet the parents' tone because everything I try and
Speaker 2: do goes wrong, and I think you'll like it.
Speaker 1: Chela is a door, very fun. Yeah, I can't wait
Speaker 1: to see it.
Speaker 2: I get to you a lot of physical comedy, which
Speaker 2: I haven't done since Scrubs, and that's fun.
Speaker 1: So now you shot this a while ago, too, right.
Speaker 2: Yes, shot it a while ago, yes, but it's finally
Speaker 2: coming out. It's good. Vanessa is really hot and funny
Speaker 2: in it, as always, as always, she's great and Nedda
Speaker 2: tic tic boom. Yes, what do you think is speaking
Speaker 2: of Vanessa? And only because she was hosting the Red Carpet.
Speaker 2: The oscars were really great this year, weren't they They
Speaker 2: were great?
Speaker 4: Oscars were fine.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna say something really quick.
Speaker 2: Oh boy, this sounds controversial.
Speaker 1: It's not controversial, Okay, two lights out moments and the Oscars,
Speaker 1: I think there were. It was lights out seeing it
Speaker 1: coming out with the freaking thing, lights out, hilarious. You
Speaker 1: can't sit here and tell me you didn't laughing, funny,
Speaker 1: very funny. And then gossling coming out there and doing
Speaker 1: kin I don't can fuck with anybody, says, lights out,
Speaker 1: both of them.
Speaker 2: Not that hilarious. You crushed that. But also there were
Speaker 2: other moments. Billy Eilish's performance I thought was I was credible.
Speaker 1: Just right, But I wasn't laughing like I was laughing
Speaker 1: watching those two things. I you know, I expect to
Speaker 1: see great, dramatic and heartfelt performances like the you know,
Speaker 1: the there was a standing ovation for the for the Memoriam,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I expect to see grand you know, dramatic. It's the Oscars.
Speaker 1: It's rare that you laugh your ass off like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: where you were you giggling so hard at what's going on?
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you a goose pumpy moment for me,
Speaker 2: I agree, those were hilarious moments. But when Billy and
Speaker 2: Phineas were singing and then and it was just very simple, right,
Speaker 2: and then they had yet to reveal that there was
Speaker 2: an orchestra back there. And then so they were spinning
Speaker 2: on this little simple turntable, and then the stage opened
Speaker 2: up to reveal Ricky Minor and the orchestra, and I
Speaker 2: got goosebumps all over my whole body. It was so good.
Speaker 1: First of all, shout out Ricky Minor.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Ricky Miner's got a monopoly on those award shows.
Speaker 1: I love him.
Speaker 4: Is for people.
Speaker 2: Not oh, he's a famous conductor and producer, but he
Speaker 2: seems to always have the Whenever there's a big award
Speaker 2: show and a big ass orchestra, he's usually the one
Speaker 2: conducting the orchestra.
Speaker 1: Not only that, he's just an incredible person when he
Speaker 1: seems me he is always so nice and loving. And
Speaker 1: I just I really shout out Ricky Minor.
Speaker 2: I just don't really want he Minor listens to the podcast,
Speaker 2: but maybe now someone will know.
Speaker 1: He's his favorite podcast. I've already he told me it was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there were a lot of good I love the
Speaker 2: sort of style of having the actors come out and
Speaker 2: say something nice about each of the nominees. That was
Speaker 2: so elegant, beautiful, so lovely and moving, super moving, and
Speaker 2: also just like a great opportunity for every nominee to
Speaker 2: be honored by another person who's receiving award, but also
Speaker 2: for the winner to then be congratulated and kind of
Speaker 2: like welcomed into that club.
Speaker 5: Just being like congratulations. It was beautiful. I really loved it.
Speaker 1: And for the losers to wish that they were welcomed.
Speaker 2: I like what Daniel said, You're still honored in a way.
Speaker 2: Divine Joy Randolph is that her name?
Speaker 4: That's correct?
Speaker 2: When she started crying because what Lupina and Young said,
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, that was one of the most moving
Speaker 2: moments of the night. I thought.
Speaker 3: When she was already classmates at Yale, I think divines
Speaker 3: one year under Lapida and so yeah, when they were
Speaker 3: able to especially when they were able to have these
Speaker 3: emotional ties and relationships to one another like amazone, Yeah yeah,
Speaker 3: but in the way that they were able to give
Speaker 3: it to a friend so a Frank could give it
Speaker 3: to her, like, it just made everything much more emotional
Speaker 3: and sweep.
Speaker 1: Yes, Emma is Emma.
Speaker 2: I gotta say, Emma. If there's one person, a young
Speaker 2: person who deserves two oscars already, it's Emma Stone. She
Speaker 2: is so fucking good. She's really good and Donald. I
Speaker 2: know you'll never see that movie, but you're missing them.
Speaker 2: One of the most amazing performances ever. I wish I
Speaker 2: could tell you there was lightsabers in it, so you'd
Speaker 2: at least peek at it.
Speaker 1: Is there music.
Speaker 3: There's beautiful music, strange, bizarre, awesome music and gorgeous set design.
Speaker 2: Will be Wan.
Speaker 1: Isn't it for some reason like Alice in Wonderland.
Speaker 2: No, it's sort of a Frankenstein story. It's basically about
Speaker 2: about how a guy, Willem Dafoe, creates a young woman.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like, now I want to see this movie.
Speaker 2: It's kind of like my movie.
Speaker 1: We always joke about weird science.
Speaker 2: It's like a modern day artful weird science.
Speaker 1: I am now interested. I would like to see this movie.
Speaker 2: And it's on Hulu. You can watch it. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: really good. I highly recommend it. And just the design,
Speaker 2: I mean it won all the design awards as it should.
Speaker 2: The costumes, these make up, these sets. You're gonna think like, wow,
Speaker 2: is this all cgi? I can't believe someone would have
Speaker 2: built all of this. It's all built on stage in Hungary.
Speaker 2: I believe.
Speaker 4: Rgo Lamos is just a guy.
Speaker 2: Interesting I saw, but I got so into it that
Speaker 2: I watched her behind the scenes, which I'm sure anyone
Speaker 2: listening can track down on YouTube. And it was just
Speaker 2: about how they built these sets which were enormous and
Speaker 2: like Emma Stone's interviewed and she says, you could get
Speaker 2: lost in these cities and they're all on stage, like
Speaker 2: enormous stages. Really cool.
Speaker 1: That reminds me of how much how big Star Wars sets.
Speaker 1: Oh god, it used to be before the CG and
Speaker 1: the volume and all of that.
Speaker 4: Stuff, the whole city for and or.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's it is huge. That was an exception.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So as you say, bring it back, it's going back
Speaker 4: around and coming back.
Speaker 2: Are you excited about that?
Speaker 4: I am very excited.
Speaker 1: I like all of it. I'm gonna be honest with you.
Speaker 1: I still love it. Even though it's on, even though
Speaker 1: it's on a television screen behind the actors, I still
Speaker 1: love it. It's still it's still Star Wars to me.
Speaker 2: Has anyone seen done too?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 1: No, And I really want to see it, but I'm
Speaker 1: waiting for it to because I have a thing about
Speaker 1: going to theaters. Now. Man, it just doesn't.
Speaker 2: I mean, I, yeah, I see Doune too in a theater.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go see in the theater.
Speaker 3: Theater, Donald, it's not that expensive. What's you're done several times?
Speaker 2: What's your fear?
Speaker 1: My fear about movie theaters. It's not my fear. I
Speaker 1: don't have a fear about it. It's just COVID set
Speaker 1: off something completely different in me when it comes to
Speaker 1: that ship.
Speaker 2: And I still master movie theater.
Speaker 1: I don't like I want to be comfortable too, though.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go see it. I'm gonna go see it
Speaker 2: in some giant imax either, you.
Speaker 1: Know what I mean. And I'm gonna be honest with you.
Speaker 1: Back in the day, I would try and get seats
Speaker 1: that were separated from people anyway, And now you can't
Speaker 1: do that regardless, you know what I mean. Like, if
Speaker 1: I want to sit two rows over, I mean a
Speaker 1: seat over at the if there's three seats or four
Speaker 1: seats and I want to sit in the middle of
Speaker 1: those four seats, I can't do that shit. And you
Speaker 1: used to be able to do stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Well, go if you go to a day screening, I
Speaker 2: think a week day, but.
Speaker 1: Dune, this is gonna be like one of the number one.
Speaker 1: It's got to be one of the number one.
Speaker 2: No, but I'm sure that if that's your biggest concern,
Speaker 2: I'm sure you could find a weekday, early morning screening
Speaker 2: where you don't have to sit on top of people.
Speaker 1: I'm animating, man, didn't you hear how we started this shit?
Speaker 1: I just want to wait until it comes out and
Speaker 1: I can watch it on my big screen at home
Speaker 1: with the sound machine and pop some popcorn and enjoy
Speaker 1: it that way. I mean, you see where I'm sitting.
Speaker 2: Okay, I go off off, I get it.
Speaker 4: Dad my dances every time every just like my dad.
Speaker 4: He's like, no, wait till it comes. I got a
Speaker 4: big screen downstairs. I don't need the movie theater.
Speaker 1: I don't need it anymore. I don't need it dates
Speaker 1: happening in this house.
Speaker 2: What's sad though? It is like what's sad though? Is
Speaker 2: like I hear you, and a lot of people listening
Speaker 2: agree with you. I just it's just so sad, like
Speaker 2: we were all everyone in the movie industry is like
Speaker 2: clutching on, like, well, at least we have these big
Speaker 2: ten polls where people will still go to the theater
Speaker 2: and now people are being like, nah, my TV is
Speaker 2: big enough, fuck it, and we're watching the death of
Speaker 2: the movie theater in real time. It's a it's a
Speaker 2: tough thing, but anyway, it is what it is, and
Speaker 2: at least there's lots of good entertainment. And it'll just
Speaker 2: shift to to your home TV and will always have
Speaker 2: the ballet.
Speaker 1: I'll always have the balet. Everything was beautiful.
Speaker 2: I want to play the audience a song. It's one
Speaker 2: of the most beautiful things has it ever heard. I
Speaker 2: sent this to you guys in your d MS, and
Speaker 2: it's just it's just it's become a very important song
Speaker 2: to me in my life, and I wanted to share
Speaker 2: with you guys. Okay, hold on, I got to cue
Speaker 2: it up everyone this. I want to give a shout
Speaker 2: out to the Instagram account there. I ruined it spelled
Speaker 2: t h e r E. I ruined it. Okay, this
Speaker 2: is Donald. This goes out to you.
Speaker 1: I like big butts.
Speaker 6: I cannot lie you other brothers.
Speaker 2: Canton night.
Speaker 1: When a girl walks in with an any pity, waste.
Speaker 5: And a round thing in your face, you get strong
Speaker 5: because you notice that but wor stuff.
Speaker 1: You pull up to.
Speaker 2: Deep in the gen.

Speaker 2: Ju all that jump inside that trunk. Hey, Hey, I'm
Speaker 2: a gad cat. Can't you try? Can you trunk up? There?
Speaker 2: You go? It goes on and on. But that's uh,
Speaker 2: I think that's that's what's an important thing for us
Speaker 2: all to hear.
Speaker 4: I'm glad you played it. I feel culturally enriched.
Speaker 2: Amen. All right, let's get in a season nine dollar
Speaker 2: counter sent.
Speaker 1: I don't want to.
Speaker 2: I gotta do it. You gotta we gotta do it.
Speaker 2: Do it, do it, do it?
Speaker 1: You honor me?
Speaker 2: Do it?
Speaker 1: My six seven stories that show we made about a
Speaker 1: bunch of times and nurses in Canada, he said, he's
Speaker 1: the stories netlik knowe here yea.
Speaker 2: All right, Welcome to season nine. Everyone, I'm sure has
Speaker 2: a lot to say.
Speaker 1: Please leave them in Joel's inbox. She's been waiting.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: iHeart at gmail dot.
Speaker 2: Com, RBS, iHeart at gmail dot com. I want to
Speaker 2: hear what you have to say about season nine.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Donald, I want to start with Daniel and
Speaker 1: Joel first, okay, and what they thought, because I feel
Speaker 1: like I'm I I need to. I don't want to.
Speaker 1: I don't want to start.
Speaker 2: I would rather I can start I mean, but go ahead, Joelle,
Speaker 2: what do you have to say broad strokes? Joel, you
Speaker 2: don't have to keep I got, well it's a long podcast.
Speaker 2: You can you don't have to keep it brief.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay.
Speaker 3: I think it was so lovely to see Zach opening up.
Speaker 3: You're like, wow, this you'll so familiar, how lovely, the
Speaker 3: eagle grand the shouting from the hospital so cool. And
Speaker 3: then as soon as they were like, it's a different hospital,
Speaker 3: I said.
Speaker 7: Skirt, this is scrubs.
Speaker 1: Where are we?
Speaker 4: What's happening?
Speaker 3: I miss the dirty hospitle new and clean, and it's
Speaker 3: so big and like lush and green like this.
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel right.
Speaker 3: And immediately I heard Bill in the back of my
Speaker 3: mind being like, it's a different show. It's a different show.
Speaker 8: Think of it.
Speaker 3: It's a different show. And I said, okay, if I
Speaker 3: try to lean into that. I like the Lucy character.
Speaker 3: She's fun on punch Cole in the face.
Speaker 4: I don't like him. It's a horrible person.
Speaker 3: I'm intrigued by des relationship with the guy that Cox
Speaker 3: eventually calls his number one. Cox says, a straight up teacher, fascinating.
Speaker 3: There was like a lot of as I was watched
Speaker 3: its like, there's so much stuff that works. I just
Speaker 3: don't think it had found his footing in the pilot,
Speaker 3: which is very common for TV. So if I were
Speaker 3: watching this fresh, I would be like, I will watch
Speaker 3: another couple of episodes and see if they find their groove.
Speaker 3: I like what's being set up. It does not feel
Speaker 3: like Scrubs, even though I see the Scrubs cast Sarah
Speaker 3: putting her boobs on your head. I mean, I almost
Speaker 3: on the floor.
Speaker 2: They're heavy, I said, they're heavy.
Speaker 4: That's a weird moment.
Speaker 2: Well, I'll jump in. I want to say something just
Speaker 2: to start off season nine, and I really did feel
Speaker 2: this when I watched it, to say, when we dis
Speaker 2: season nine, we are never ever meaning to diss any
Speaker 2: of these wonderful actors, because I think I wanted to
Speaker 2: just start out by saying one of the things I
Speaker 2: got right off the bat was, Gosh, these new kids
Speaker 2: quote unquote are so funny and so talented and so pretty,
Speaker 2: and they're all really, really talented people. It was a
Speaker 2: kind of herculean task for them to try and step
Speaker 2: into the roles of a beloved ensemble that I've been
Speaker 2: doing it for eight years and it's a big ask,
Speaker 2: but nonetheless they were put in that position. I think
Speaker 2: Carrie Boshe is adorable and lovable and funny. But yeah,
Speaker 2: as a viewer, I'm watching it going why is this
Speaker 2: so clean? And why what is this environment?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 2: It's funny? We know how that that that line from
Speaker 2: Madam Webb was getting dragged so much they even mentioned
Speaker 2: it the oscars. What was that sentence? It was like
Speaker 2: when you were she was my mom, when she was
Speaker 2: a doctor?
Speaker 4: Do you know that sense amazon rainforest? Oh gosh, I.
Speaker 2: Don't have the line, Dan All, they'll find it, But
Speaker 2: it was like it was like the reason they're making
Speaker 2: fun of it is because it was like so much exposition,
Speaker 2: like condensed into one quick moment. And that's why I
Speaker 2: felt like that JD had one line that was like that.
Speaker 2: It was like explaining why we're in this weird environment
Speaker 2: and and and why I everyone now works at a
Speaker 2: school and like and then and they tore down the
Speaker 2: hospital and they all work and we all work in
Speaker 2: a school now. I don't know, it's just weird, right,
Speaker 2: I have the line?
Speaker 5: What's the line? So it was a joke from John mulaney.
Speaker 5: He said with that sound we wouldn't have been able
Speaker 5: to hear such classical line says you're going to need
Speaker 5: a bigger boat, or I'll have what she's having. And
Speaker 5: he was in the Amazon with my mother when she
Speaker 5: was researching spiders just before she died.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's like making fun of them for like cramming
Speaker 2: all his exposition into one sentence. But anyway, that's my
Speaker 2: first impression is that, you know, Carrie Bisa and Franco
Speaker 2: and Eliza Koop and all all this gang, they were
Speaker 2: really they're really talented, Mickey Wheeland, They're all really funny
Speaker 2: and talented. It was just a big ask of them.
Speaker 1: Donald, go ahead, Anniel, do you want to go?
Speaker 5: I'll very briefly echo some of the thoughts I'm hearing here,
Speaker 5: like I think the only thing I'll add is that
Speaker 5: seeing a lot of these actors when they're particularly young,
Speaker 5: seeing a very young Dave Franco, when we have seen
Speaker 5: him like grow up so much over the years in
Speaker 5: between this time was definitely like a oh, look at that.
Speaker 5: And seeing you guys again in this kind of out
Speaker 5: of place but still in place. It was almost like
Speaker 5: an uncanny valley where it's like, as Joelle said, it's
Speaker 5: like it is Scrub, but it's also kind of not
Speaker 5: like it is, you guys, and it's so many of
Speaker 5: the main players. It felt so familiar and yet so distant,
Speaker 5: which was I think, you know, as Bill was saying,
Speaker 5: try and think of it as a spin off, think
Speaker 5: of it something new. But there was so much that
Speaker 5: was reminiscent about it that the strangeness made me feel
Speaker 5: even farther away from it than it did make it
Speaker 5: feel familiar. Yeah, and I think, like we said when
Speaker 5: we were talking about doing a spin off or like
Speaker 5: what the spinoff would be many episodes ago, it's like
Speaker 5: it's a big ask to just, all of the sudden,
Speaker 5: introduce a bunch of new people and expect it to
Speaker 5: hit as hard as it did, even with so many
Speaker 5: of these familiar faces, And like you're saying, great actors,
Speaker 5: it was a big ask. It was a big ask
Speaker 5: of the audience. And yeah, I don't know if I
Speaker 5: don't know if it landed properly.
Speaker 1: All right, they did something that never works, all right.
Speaker 1: I echo everything you guys said. It was absolutely everybody
Speaker 1: on this Bad Boy it is talented, everyone is you know,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But they did something that
Speaker 1: never works, and every show on television does it. When
Speaker 1: they're trying to survive, they try to fucking Sam that
Speaker 1: shit or cousin Oliver that shit, and it never works.
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm ready.
Speaker 2: To explain, that reference to young people that don't get
Speaker 2: a difference reference.
Speaker 1: So when shows get old and the kids get older,
Speaker 1: and people and networks feel like the audience can't relate
Speaker 1: the audience that we want to watch, the show can't
Speaker 1: relate anymore. Writers are forced to create a new character
Speaker 1: to bring life to the show, and for some it's Sam.
Speaker 1: On different strokes. There was Arnold and Willis and Kimberly
Speaker 1: when they were kids, and that's what the show was
Speaker 1: about them being kids. But when they got older, it
Speaker 1: was like, we can't write the same story, Like Arnold
Speaker 1: can't get kidnapped anymore. He's nineteen years old, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean.
Speaker 2: They bringing a young, cute kid.
Speaker 1: So they bring in a young cute kid and they
Speaker 1: let all of those stories happen to that kid. And
Speaker 1: that's what they tried to do with Scrubs. They felt like,
Speaker 1: for some reason, the audience can't relate to these guys
Speaker 1: going through these stories. Anymore. It was really about when
Speaker 1: they were Scrubs was really new and fresh, when they
Speaker 1: were young and they were energetic, and they were and
Speaker 1: they were and they were and they didn't know all
Speaker 1: the answers. Let's recreate that again. Even better, Let's throw
Speaker 1: them in a school and turn it into a classroom
Speaker 1: setting head of the class, and we'll bring back all
Speaker 1: of our favorites to teach these kids right that shit
Speaker 1: doesn't work. Now.
Speaker 2: Were you and Johnny c the only regulars from the
Speaker 2: original cast or was Sarah?
Speaker 9: Yes?
Speaker 2: I think Sarah and.
Speaker 1: I comes back and does like six episodes. You do
Speaker 1: six episodes when you leave, Sarah comes, there's six episodes
Speaker 1: where it's you and you're still narrating the show, trying
Speaker 1: to keep everybody there right, and then you leave and
Speaker 1: it's all thrown on to Carrie BChE and and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you, guys, it's a big ask. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not the same show.
Speaker 2: But she's very charming and able.
Speaker 1: I love her fucking jumping over the counter and doing
Speaker 1: that stuff.
Speaker 2: She's I like to think I discovered Carrie Bouche, but
Speaker 2: I but Bill would probably fight me on that because
Speaker 2: I cast her in a pilot that my brother Adam wrote,
Speaker 2: and it probably didn't get picked up, but we shot
Speaker 2: it and we cast her and she was so good
Speaker 2: in it. And I feel like I must have mentioned
Speaker 2: her and showed Bill the pilot. He would probably have
Speaker 2: a different answer for that, but I think that. But anyway,
Speaker 2: I always thought she's so so charming and interesting.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 2: Another thing that came to my mind is do you
Speaker 2: remember him in Groundhog Day when he naturally falls on
Speaker 2: the ground in a romantic way with it's Annie mccarwell, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then when his con is finally working, Yes.
Speaker 2: And then he tries to like recreate it and it's
Speaker 2: so cringe it doesn't happen naturally. Do you remember that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: That That's kind of how I felt watching this. I
Speaker 2: felt like we're trying to like cringely recreate like something
Speaker 2: that was working. So you and I doing an eagle
Speaker 2: like and saying eagle twice and screaming from across the
Speaker 2: parking lot, just like we did when when you came
Speaker 2: back from your honeymoon. It just felt like we were
Speaker 2: doing that that Groundhog Day of trying to like recreate
Speaker 2: something that had been magical.
Speaker 1: All right, I might say one last thing and then
Speaker 1: you're going to be mad. You guys are gonna be mad.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna be mad. We want your honesty.
Speaker 1: The show got better when it was just focused on us. Also,
Speaker 1: like what hundred I didn't give two craps about the
Speaker 1: interns or yeah, no you were.
Speaker 2: But you have to look at it from a non
Speaker 2: biased point of view.
Speaker 1: Do you think you were just was just going into this.
Speaker 1: If I was just coming into this show and I
Speaker 1: had never seen Scrubs before in my life, right, and
Speaker 1: this was the first introduction, I'd be like, oh, wow,
Speaker 1: this is a really cool show. These guys are great.
Speaker 1: But after nine, after eight years, and then going into
Speaker 1: this and then bringing back the same people and then
Speaker 1: saying it's Scrubs with Bill's right, that was the mistake.
Speaker 1: They should have called that ship something else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, med School just maybe we should have been.
Speaker 1: Maybe we shouldn't have been in it. Maybe driving down to.
Speaker 2: Sunset Boulevard today and there was like a billboard for
Speaker 2: the New Law and Order with Tony Goldwyn, and then
Speaker 2: there was a bill a separate billboard for SVU, and
Speaker 2: then there was a separate billboard for another one. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I was like, uh, there's like so many law
Speaker 2: and orders and like it could have that would have
Speaker 2: that wouldn't have better. Yeah, it would have been a
Speaker 2: better route to be like med School. Yeah, and Bill
Speaker 2: Bill Bill has said he tried so hard for that,
Speaker 2: but they didn't want to do that because they were
Speaker 2: worried about the branding of it. O.
Speaker 1: I would have been dope, then you can compete against
Speaker 1: your own show and stuff like that, Scrubs, Scrubs, Med School.
Speaker 1: Then you have the crossovers. Yeah, that would have been
Speaker 1: fire Man. It didn't work.
Speaker 2: It didn't work like that. Also an another variable that was,
Speaker 2: you know, changing the environment so drastically, I think in
Speaker 2: addition to it being you know, for those of you
Speaker 2: who listened, all eight years of Scrubs were filmed at
Speaker 2: an actual abandoned hospital. This is the first season that
Speaker 2: was shot on sets. So when you're when you see
Speaker 2: the outdoor area, that's actually the back lot of.
Speaker 1: The back those are those are office buildings on Culver
Speaker 1: City Studios. On the Culver City Studios.
Speaker 10: I think it's now Amazon, right, Yeah, that's the new
Speaker 10: That was the new buildings that they had built for
Speaker 10: the people that worked and the other side where we
Speaker 10: filmed like the quad and all that stuff was where
Speaker 10: like Gone with the Wind and all of that shit
Speaker 10: was filmed.
Speaker 1: Uh, and that used to be that used to be
Speaker 1: the bag the offices.
Speaker 2: I think pieces of Wizard of Oz maybe were shot there.
Speaker 2: Like it's an old lot along with next it is Sony,
Speaker 2: which which definitely had some Wizard of Oz. I'm not
Speaker 2: sure what falls where, but yeah, lots of old classic movies.
Speaker 2: And then then it was called the Culver City Lot
Speaker 2: and now I think it's been bought by Amazon if
Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 1: It was Culver Studios when we were there.
Speaker 2: Okay, and that's where Bill shot Cougartown and that's why
Speaker 2: it was moved there so Bill could kind of run
Speaker 2: back and forth.
Speaker 1: Between run back and forth.
Speaker 2: Well, I think he didn't do much running back and forth.
Speaker 1: But in theory he could overread Cougartown like this.
Speaker 2: He could oversee Cougartown. But anyway, when you're seeing all
Speaker 2: those exterior shots, that's like, yeah, Donald's right, it's not
Speaker 2: even a backlot. It's just like it's just like that
Speaker 2: was just the outdoor area of this lot. And then
Speaker 2: all the interior stuff was was were sets on a
Speaker 2: stage and also in addition to that, it was we
Speaker 2: had shot eight years on sixteen millimeter film and I
Speaker 2: believe this this was the first time the show moved
Speaker 2: to HD video, So all of those factors make it
Speaker 2: have quite a different look.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 5: The look was a bigger factor than I anticipated. It
Speaker 5: really makes a difference. It's a huge, huge difference.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, my big laughs, my big laughs. Okay, stories
Speaker 1: that I'm interested in.
Speaker 2: Wait, We're going to go through the whole show and
Speaker 2: I'll just do your highlights.
Speaker 1: My bad. I thought we were.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't like the way I looked either.
Speaker 1: You don't like the way you looked? Yeah, I just
Speaker 1: I just you know, I could tell you, talk to
Speaker 1: you about the way I looked. I had fake like
Speaker 1: all right, so my teeth are not real. They're not
Speaker 1: the teeth that I were born with. I've got veneers
Speaker 1: and I'm I've but this was going through the process
Speaker 1: of it, so at this point I had like fake
Speaker 1: like not even veneers. So it's like that gel that
Speaker 1: they put yeah, kind of pretty much, but it's like
Speaker 1: the gel that they put in your mouth and then
Speaker 1: they shape your teeth to make it look like you
Speaker 1: have teeth and stuff like that. And so when I
Speaker 1: look at this, all I see is the and you
Speaker 1: have to have this wash because they've this is back
Speaker 1: in the day, because they've grinded down your teeth and
Speaker 1: your gums are like exposed and stuff like that. And
Speaker 1: so when I look at that, all I see is
Speaker 1: just the smell that I was going through at that time.
Speaker 2: How long did you have to have a smelly teeth?
Speaker 1: It was for like a good three months and stuff
Speaker 1: like that. So while we were filming this, and then
Speaker 1: towards the end, I get my permanent jump offs in.
Speaker 2: I think, will you let us know when we were
Speaker 2: watching these when you have.
Speaker 1: Your when it skips over, Oh, you'll be able to
Speaker 1: tell because the smile gets so big.
Speaker 2: Should we take a break, Dew, great idea, Zach, all right,
Speaker 2: we're gonna take a break. When we come back, we're
Speaker 2: going to talk about how much Donald loves season nine,
Speaker 2: what you're trying to get into one day, or what you're.
Speaker 1: Trying to do.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back. Well, there's not a lot of
Speaker 2: us in this episode. Let's talk about who is there.
Speaker 2: You got Dave Franco. You got Carrie Masha, You've got
Speaker 2: Eliza Coop, You've got Nicky.
Speaker 1: Wheelan, you got Michael Winslow. Michael his real name.
Speaker 2: That's gonna sound what.
Speaker 1: That's what I called him. So I got a I
Speaker 1: got a great story about that too. His name is
Speaker 1: Mike Mosley.
Speaker 2: Mike Mosley.
Speaker 1: He did a great too, but but I thought his
Speaker 1: last name was For some reason, I confused him with
Speaker 1: Michael Winslow, and so I started calling him Winslow on set.
Speaker 1: You know, Michael went cringe right, no doubt. So he
Speaker 1: throws a party and I'm old man at this time,
Speaker 1: but I'll give fuck I'm like thirty seven, and he
Speaker 1: doesn't invite any of the older people. I don't get
Speaker 1: to invite Zacherson, and I'm pissed off. But he invites
Speaker 1: all the young motherfuckers but he doesn't invite the o
Speaker 1: G cast. I'm like this mother right, And I go
Speaker 1: to a live I go to Eliza Cooper and I go, yo,
Speaker 1: hold on, Eliza, you got invited to Michael Winslow's party.
Speaker 1: And she was like, who I said, Michael Winslow, you
Speaker 1: know the dude that place drew And she goes, you
Speaker 1: mean Michael Mosley and I go, oh, I go, yeah,
Speaker 1: well he didn't invite me to the party. You've been
Speaker 1: calling him Michael Winslow.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, did you ever did you ever take
Speaker 2: ownership of that and apologize?
Speaker 1: I was like, motherfucker, why didn't you correct me and
Speaker 1: say my name is fucking Michael Moseley. He's like, I
Speaker 1: didn't realize that you were calling me Michael Winslow. Like,
Speaker 1: mother fin you out so full of shit Winslow. It's
Speaker 1: like how motherfuckers call me clueless.
Speaker 2: Last, in the spirit of us trying to recreate moments
Speaker 2: all our groundhog Day, I thought when we hugged and well,
Speaker 2: I say, you smell like you've been in prison, that was.
Speaker 1: Not funny at all.
Speaker 6: And also it was when you.
Speaker 2: Know what our hug was like like seasons one through eight,
Speaker 2: It used to be like we did two guys who
Speaker 2: love each other. This was like these two on a
Speaker 2: fuck Yeah.
Speaker 1: Dude, I'm knocked over the stunt man to get to you.
Speaker 2: It was too much. The look of the smelling you
Speaker 2: is like, like, yeah, too much.
Speaker 1: I think she comes by and she goes to you guys,
Speaker 1: But I think that's the joke also because she's like,
Speaker 1: you guys need a room. It was, but we skipped
Speaker 1: so much. See, this is what I'm talking about. This
Speaker 1: is what I'm talking about. The show gets funny to
Speaker 1: me right when my head is on the motherfucking on
Speaker 1: the damn thing. That's when I was like, all right,
Speaker 1: this is funny.
Speaker 2: The white mannekin. It's funny when you give all your
Speaker 2: students an f because they're white.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's when I started laughing, this is funny.
Speaker 2: Well raise your hand if you're white. Yeah, that was
Speaker 2: funny that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: We have a little guy love reprise right after that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, then we run each other.
Speaker 2: We said, I seem like a prisoner. And then then
Speaker 2: someone is like, well, how long has it been since
Speaker 2: you guys seen each other? We carpooled here this morning.
Speaker 2: Then we see the new title sequence, which is really weird.
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen it.
Speaker 1: That's nice. I remember shooting it.
Speaker 2: It's not bane. I remember shooting it too. I remember
Speaker 2: being like, why do I have to be in this?
Speaker 2: I'm not even in the show anymore.
Speaker 1: Six episodes.
Speaker 2: But then it's it's it's Wahs and the artist named
Speaker 2: wa was It's not laslow Bane. It's not Chad from
Speaker 2: laslow Baine singing his own song.
Speaker 1: It's very melancholic all of a sudden, like they're trying
Speaker 1: to do I don't know, man, it said, Listen, I'm
Speaker 1: not hating on the show. I just feel like it
Speaker 1: was the room being honest. It was I think, and
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I laughed a couple of times.
Speaker 1: It just didn't feel like it's just branded wrong. I
Speaker 1: agree with that the branding should have been.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, let me give you a little thing. On
Speaker 2: the title sequence, it's a new version covered by singer
Speaker 2: songwriter Waz, who was featured before on Scrubs in My
Speaker 2: Full Moon and who was also responsible for the music
Speaker 2: in Bill Lawrence this other show, Cougartown. The chest X
Speaker 2: ray in the title sequence is no longer backwards. And
Speaker 2: also Bill Lawrence managed to sneak in Med School like
Speaker 2: he wanted in an attempt to position the new season
Speaker 2: as a spin off.
Speaker 1: That's what it should have been, right then and there.
Speaker 1: It should have just said in Med School and not Scrubs.
Speaker 1: And I don't think. I don't think we should have
Speaker 1: been in it. That's just me from We're from where
Speaker 1: we're at right now. I think we're so distracting to
Speaker 1: the audience. This is why we're so distracting to the audience,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, the one person that could
Speaker 1: be there. You keep Eliza, and you can even bring
Speaker 1: in Kelso. But we're so distracting to the audience that
Speaker 1: it makes it so that it's like, wait, is this
Speaker 1: scrubs or is this or is this med school? Who
Speaker 1: am I supposed to follow you doing the monologue and
Speaker 1: her doing the monologue? It's confused. It's you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, as a watcher, it's like, Uh.
Speaker 2: The idea was to pass the torch and to warm
Speaker 2: up the audience to Carriebousche, and then little by little
Speaker 2: JD fades out. That was the that was the plan.
Speaker 1: We're really heavily in this story. In the beginning of it, though, I.
Speaker 2: Laughed the janitor quits when he finds out that JD's
Speaker 2: not really coming back.
Speaker 1: A lot of people know this, but he was contracted
Speaker 1: to do the middle Yeah, but I'm saying story wise,
Speaker 1: it's funny when they do that.
Speaker 2: I laughed at that little flashback when when you tell
Speaker 2: him that I'm never coming back.
Speaker 1: You he just puts them and he puts them up.
Speaker 1: It doesn't it doesn't track.
Speaker 2: But yeah, he just hands off the mop and leaves.
Speaker 2: His whole goal, his whole reason for staying at the hospital.
Speaker 1: Was the torture. Left you left in the last episode.
Speaker 2: Right, No, there's a flashback. It's not saying recently, it's
Speaker 2: saying after flashback.
Speaker 1: But it doesn't track. So you're saying the day you left,
Speaker 1: the day you were out to out after all of
Speaker 1: that ship.
Speaker 2: That's what happened. That's what's funny about it.
Speaker 1: No, they could have just said they laid his ass off.
Speaker 1: They said something like that. That would have been I
Speaker 1: think it's funny that he leaves. It doesn't track because.
Speaker 2: He's His reason for being was the torture JD. When
Speaker 2: he doesn't have JD, he's like, fuck this, I retire.
Speaker 1: He was there before JD. The whole conversation about the
Speaker 1: episode about how he the group's always changed and everything
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 2: I know, but like, just like, just like JD was
Speaker 2: Cox's favorite student, JD became the Janitor's raison debtra his
Speaker 2: reason for existing. He committed his whole life to torturing JD.
Speaker 2: And when JD was gone. He was like, I'm going
Speaker 2: to retire. O. Fuck this place.
Speaker 1: There's so many people. He sold the scroll arm.
Speaker 2: Hand with Stephen. He does Stephen, Stephen who whatever? We
Speaker 2: didn't do we ever find out what happened Stephen. Okay,
Speaker 2: So JD has Stephen somewhere. Okay, so let's get in
Speaker 2: some more of this. Cox has has numbers.
Speaker 1: Was that seeing him in front of all of those people,
Speaker 1: man doing the freaking monologue now is good as he's
Speaker 1: in a as as if he's in a perscenium.
Speaker 2: I was good. I thought. I thought that set, by
Speaker 2: the way, was good. Was if you're going to do
Speaker 2: a college classroom set, that was a really good looking
Speaker 2: set by Cabin McMullen. And I thought Johnny did a
Speaker 2: good job with that monologue.
Speaker 1: Obviously, I I was pissed off after I saw his office,
Speaker 1: I mean his uh, his classroom, and then I saw
Speaker 1: my classroom the size of a shoe box.
Speaker 2: Well, I think the idea is that he gets to
Speaker 2: freaking he gets the freaking hole. Yeah, that was good though,
Speaker 2: I mean was that was he did a really good job.
Speaker 2: And then we see me meet so he Cox gives
Speaker 2: different numbers to the med students, and he gives Kerryebsha nineteen,
Speaker 2: meaning her ranking is nineteenth from his favorite. And we
Speaker 2: meet the beautiful Australian actress Nikki Wheeland, who doesn't have
Speaker 2: much to do in this first episode.
Speaker 1: But nobody can understand what.
Speaker 2: Nobody can understand her. That's kind of funny.
Speaker 1: What is she saying?
Speaker 2: He has no idea what she's saying. Drew and Eliza
Speaker 2: we established they have. There's a lot of sex in
Speaker 2: this episode.
Speaker 1: They established their relationships quite early.
Speaker 6: I know.
Speaker 2: I think they really wanted to say in the pilot, like, guys,
Speaker 2: there's gonna be lots of sex, please stay tuned.
Speaker 1: Sex with a lot of young people.
Speaker 2: Hey, guys, young people will be banging. Please stay tuned.
Speaker 1: Tonight on a very special episode of Med School. There
Speaker 1: will be banging.
Speaker 2: Yes, tonight, there'll be some jokes and banging on SCOF.
Speaker 2: So you've got Carrie Bouchet hooking up with Dave Franco,
Speaker 2: And how fucked up is it that Dave Franco takes
Speaker 2: a secret picture of her bending over and prints it
Speaker 2: and then just carries it around and carries it around.
Speaker 1: Okay, so I was confused. Is he carrying it around
Speaker 1: to show people we never know, or is he carrying
Speaker 1: it around because he never wants to forget the moment?
Speaker 1: I mean, is it a central Like first of all, one, two,
Speaker 1: his ass should be in jail for shit like that, right,
Speaker 1: don't you go to jail for stuff like that?
Speaker 4: Well you can't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, First of all, it's so fucked up. And then
Speaker 2: the only thing I hated more than that was the
Speaker 2: fact that when Jad finally has a good teacher moment,
Speaker 2: he becomes he's very you know, empathized with Carrie Bouchet
Speaker 2: obviously because he was in her spot. That's the whole
Speaker 2: point of handing off this journey to carry Boschet's character.
Speaker 2: And then he leads her off and then sneaks a
Speaker 2: look at the picture again. It was so like I
Speaker 2: was like no, I was like, no, that is not
Speaker 2: the way. First of all, how does he recognize her
Speaker 2: if it's a picture of her bent over?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 4: She says, this is a picture of me, and then
Speaker 4: I think JD responds to that.
Speaker 2: Okay, But but just for Clarity's sake, I know it
Speaker 2: was a comedy and everything, but when we see Cole
Speaker 2: take the picture and she's bent over, like she's putting
Speaker 2: her socks on or whatever. So it doesn't really make
Speaker 2: sense that she would be able to.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what I'm trying to say. It's collogy. Now.
Speaker 1: The way the show looks it does feel very national
Speaker 1: lampoon ish, old school lampoonish.
Speaker 4: He does have lampoonish vibes, Yeah, lampoonish, Spottish.
Speaker 2: Now, JD. I really didn't like JD as a teacher.
Speaker 2: I know that's supposed to be the joke that he's
Speaker 2: like so performative and lights camera teach. It's like so
Speaker 2: much and none of the students are into it. Understandably,
Speaker 2: there was a cool fantasy when camera teach. What I
Speaker 2: w It's funny because he's supposed to be like bad
Speaker 2: at it, which we're supposed to go, oh, I see
Speaker 2: JD's not good at this. But I was kind of cringing, like, oh,
Speaker 2: he's annoying. I don't want to be I don't know,
Speaker 2: but what what hold on?
Speaker 1: Lights, camera teach. He's not teaching for the students, he's
Speaker 1: teaching for him. He's freaking I'm fucking on stage. He's
Speaker 1: on stage at this moment.
Speaker 4: JD's imagination there isn't a full camera crew.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, he's living in a musical theater. He has
Speaker 2: to come up with a sign for when to take
Speaker 2: them to diagnosity. He comes up with Sam. Yeah, he's
Speaker 2: living his dream as a performer in front of that
Speaker 2: giant classroom.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: Now I did like the fantasy of I thought it
Speaker 2: was shot well. When Carrie leaps over the Yeah, and
Speaker 2: Johnny c who would totally be cast as a sheriff
Speaker 2: on a man hunt, totally southern sheriff on a manhunt
Speaker 2: with dogs. Johnny would get that part.
Speaker 1: I thought that, say less, Johnny, would you want what?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 1: A state trooper on a manhunt with a dog?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm there, stay less, Can my biceps be out?
Speaker 1: I'm there?
Speaker 2: Can the Can the shirt around my biceps be very fitted? Okay,
Speaker 2: I'll get the next flight out there.
Speaker 1: I am on my way. Where are we feeling? New Mexico?
Speaker 1: On my way?
Speaker 2: I've worked there. I'm on my way.
Speaker 1: Are we staying the Andolous? I'll be there.
Speaker 2: So what's it called the there's like two hotels in
Speaker 2: New Mexico in Albuquerque where actors always stay. Is that
Speaker 2: what the one that you're talking about?
Speaker 1: The andolous.
Speaker 2: I think that maybe what I stayed in too.
Speaker 1: That's the one everybody says, with the courtyard downstairs with
Speaker 1: the little booths all around.
Speaker 2: And I think, so you stay stayed in another one,
Speaker 2: that's the one I stayed in one that was kind
Speaker 2: of nice.
Speaker 1: This was nice. It's nice, or it was when I
Speaker 1: was there, the fourth Star hotel. Let's take a break.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back after these fine words. Okay, So
Speaker 2: Lucy sleeps with cold. We got the picture.
Speaker 1: Oh, I liked.
Speaker 2: I laughed at that when I said to Cox, stay
Speaker 2: open for business in here in your heart cage.
Speaker 1: I liked. I liked that. JD's wearing the jacket from
Speaker 1: Dangerous Minds?
Speaker 2: Yeah, so how did JD get the jacket from danger sions?
Speaker 1: We never learned that back probably wanted out an auction.
Speaker 1: Michelle Fifer probably hadn't auction, but he was auctioning off
Speaker 1: and on.
Speaker 2: But he adds the professorial. Uh, why do professors always
Speaker 2: have those? Someone tell me about it? Why that is
Speaker 2: a trope? Why do professors always no? But what is
Speaker 2: the what is the reason?
Speaker 1: What is the reason? On their table, they're on the
Speaker 1: desk talking to the kids grading with their heads down.
Speaker 2: I just want to know why we associate elbow patches
Speaker 2: with professors.
Speaker 1: It has to be because the elbows are on the
Speaker 1: desks all the time. So uh.
Speaker 5: Based on a little cursory web search, it looks like
Speaker 5: the stereotype started because tweed was a relatively cheap, but
Speaker 5: warm material, and professors were a relatively poorly paid class
Speaker 5: of professionals, so they kept wearing them until the elbows
Speaker 5: were out, and then they patched them.
Speaker 2: Okay, well that's that makes sense, But now it's become
Speaker 2: just a thing. If you're going to play a professor,
Speaker 2: you better have some elbow patches on. So but JD
Speaker 2: when he bought her Michelle Pfeiffer's Dangerous Mind's coat, it
Speaker 2: didn't have elbow patches, so he added them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, his leather is the leather jacket, right, No, the.
Speaker 2: Leather patches probably sweded.
Speaker 1: Probably, I'm talking about the jacket. She wears a leather
Speaker 1: jacket in that I'm I'm confusing it with freaking La
Speaker 1: la land. She wears a leather jacket, the red leather
Speaker 1: jacket or the audition confused? Oh, for the audition, that's
Speaker 1: Dangerous Minds meets.
Speaker 2: Oh when she does the Dangerous Minds audition. That's it's
Speaker 2: so funny. What does she say about?
Speaker 1: No you you you be chilling? You, you be bucking? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you be tripping? Yeah? Why you be tripped?
Speaker 8: Lady?
Speaker 1: Why you be tripping?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 1: No, such you be tripping?
Speaker 2: And I love that the casting director is like, it's
Speaker 2: actually it's.
Speaker 1: An actual casting director that's reading with her.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey lady, you be tripping? No, no, Jamal, lady,
Speaker 2: why you be tripping? And I think the character's name
Speaker 2: is Jamal?
Speaker 1: Right, but lady, why you be tripping? Right?
Speaker 2: It might be I don't know, can you look that up?
Speaker 2: Guys does play casting director in?
Speaker 1: But why do you be tripping? That's it's a hilarity. No,
Speaker 1: I want to say it's like no raheem, but it's
Speaker 1: probably no Jamal.
Speaker 2: It's something like, I think it's Jamal, No Jamal, you
Speaker 2: be tripping?
Speaker 1: You be tripping?
Speaker 2: That ship's hilarious. And anyone who's an actor who's been
Speaker 2: out here in this town that the reason that is
Speaker 2: so funny is because a some casting directors will will
Speaker 2: read like that to you, and you're like, you have
Speaker 2: to act off of it and to the idea of like,
Speaker 2: you know, just doing it of her auditioning for a
Speaker 2: d Dre's minds like role was just so funny. Damn,
Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm open TikTok. You know they're
Speaker 2: about to ban this sucking app anyway.
Speaker 1: That's gone, dude, TikTok about to be gone.
Speaker 2: Can you play it? Play it in the Yeah, I
Speaker 2: got to kill I got you hold on, Daniel's going
Speaker 2: to play it for us.
Speaker 7: This is my classroom.
Speaker 2: You don't like it? The doors from my left lady,
Speaker 2: Why you be tripping like that? No, Jamal, you be tripping.
Speaker 2: But you know it's so good about a stone room.
Speaker 2: She sold the ship out of.
Speaker 1: It, like you were like, this is where this is
Speaker 1: where I get pissed off. In the beginning of the movie,
Speaker 1: that first audition she goes to where she's studying it.
Speaker 1: In the we're doing La La Land all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: I digress. But anyway, the beginning of the movies, we
Speaker 1: watch podcast when she goes to the freaking audition and
Speaker 1: she's freaking standing there and she's talking to like her
Speaker 1: lover on the phone and she's like, Yo, so you're
Speaker 1: gonna when are you gonna tell her, you're gonna tell
Speaker 1: your wife in such and such that we're together, or
Speaker 1: when you and he's and he has to change your heart,
Speaker 1: and she and and she has to play it off
Speaker 1: like she's happy, but she's crying and she's crushed, and
Speaker 1: the casting director is not paying attention. She's killing it
Speaker 1: in that scene, she's destroying it, and the casting director
Speaker 1: doesn't see it. That's just so frustrating.
Speaker 2: But I know, like during that movie, if you're supposed
Speaker 2: to think that she's a great actress early on or not,
Speaker 2: because I think you're supposed to be see for one
Speaker 2: woman show, it didn't look that great, right.
Speaker 8: No.
Speaker 1: I think the thing is that's the whole thing. There
Speaker 1: are so many great actors out there, and until you
Speaker 1: get your break, until somebody's willing to take a chance
Speaker 1: on you, you're not going to get that work right, right.
Speaker 1: And so here she is killing all of this shit.
Speaker 1: She's in there fucking crushing it, and all these other
Speaker 1: people suck and she's fucking nailing it, and the cast
Speaker 1: and director's got fucking Joe Blow on their mind and
Speaker 1: is not thinking of them, right, And same thing with
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Same thing with the director
Speaker 1: directors like, yeah, she's different, She's not the one. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm really into this girl. I'm not into this girl.
Speaker 1: Fuck this, let's go with you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Like it's it's and then and then to your point,
Speaker 2: when she has that audition where she sings that audition song,
Speaker 2: someone she's so dropped into what they were looking for.
Speaker 2: That someone then takes a chance on her, and her
Speaker 2: career takes off, and it.
Speaker 1: Takes off, and it's like finally I see you, and
Speaker 1: then everybody sees her.
Speaker 2: Now do you need to go into your loud monologue
Speaker 2: about how there's plenty of jazz clubs in Paris? And
Speaker 2: Ryan Goslin could have gone there.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, because Ryan's just can now it's all good,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 2: I really missed the era of you drunk tweeting about
Speaker 2: Lawa Land while you were on airplanes. That was a phase.
Speaker 1: I watched that movie because I listen, man, that movie.
Speaker 2: I would love back when I was on Twitter donalds
Speaker 2: Alane again because he's fucking he's writing tweets like there
Speaker 2: are plenty of jazz clubs in Paris. I don't know
Speaker 2: why he didn't follow her.
Speaker 1: No, because he didn't need to. I don't look now.
Speaker 1: I look at it and I'm like, look in my eyes.
Speaker 1: This story is it's the journey, right, everybody has a
Speaker 1: different journey, and he's two connected at one point. But
Speaker 1: I did want them to be together in the Beautiful Beautiful,
Speaker 1: And he's so happy at the end of the movie. Also,
Speaker 1: so it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: I don't know that he's happy at the end of
Speaker 2: the movie.
Speaker 1: He had exactly what he wanted, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But he didn't want her back then either, Yes he did.
Speaker 2: You don't think his heart was breaking and she walks
Speaker 2: out of the club.
Speaker 1: No, he would have made it to the show. He
Speaker 1: would have made it to the show if he wanted her.
Speaker 2: No, when she walks out of the club after he
Speaker 2: would have made it.
Speaker 1: To the show. He would have told just a legend
Speaker 1: to kiss my fucking ass. I gotta go see my
Speaker 1: decision he needs way more important. That's the decision he
Speaker 1: made then. But years later, when she comes with her
Speaker 1: husband to the jazz show and Lee is about to
Speaker 1: leave and at the door has that fantasy and they
Speaker 1: make eye contact, I think he realizes that she's the
Speaker 1: one that got away, and he's so sad that she's
Speaker 1: walking on. I think they both realized what life could
Speaker 1: have been for them if they would have stayed together,
Speaker 1: and how happy they could have been. But I think
Speaker 1: when they look at each other, they're both in a
Speaker 1: really good space.
Speaker 2: I disagree. I think, do you guys have that interpretation
Speaker 2: of it?
Speaker 4: I like that it's kind of ambiguous. I've had It's
Speaker 4: nice to my father, rest.
Speaker 2: In peace, used to love a good end of Lalla
Speaker 2: Land debate, but I don't. Sorry, Joell, what's your interpretation?
Speaker 2: My interpretation was always that that they both melancholic.
Speaker 1: Okay, my interpretation used to be your interpretation. It did,
Speaker 1: but I've watched it a few times since he's really.
Speaker 2: What do you think?
Speaker 3: Since I my thought initially was that he was sad
Speaker 3: but happy for her, and she was like, Wow, that
Speaker 3: would have been interesting if I stayed with him, But
Speaker 3: life turned out pretty sweet for me. She was good,
Speaker 3: like she seems like, in such a great place at
Speaker 3: the end, and he.
Speaker 2: I think Chazelle went out of his way to make
Speaker 2: that husband not exciting and not as sexy and not
Speaker 2: as interesting as Ryan's character was.
Speaker 1: Yes, but don't know anything about him.
Speaker 4: Here's a secret reveal to all.
Speaker 3: There is a ton of romance, and I really feel
Speaker 3: like there's a lot of a lot of romances end
Speaker 3: with Okay, I could have been with this exciting person,
Speaker 3: but they wouldn't have been the healthy person for me.
Speaker 3: So I went with this person who's more subdude, but
Speaker 3: who gets me and is very supportive and has made
Speaker 3: my life better, you know, And that's kind of the
Speaker 3: fame I got with him. Like, no, he's not as
Speaker 3: like hot and exciting and like fun as she had
Speaker 3: with Ryan, but he's stable and she was able to have.
Speaker 1: His character's name it is Sebastian.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, that's a Sebastian. I've really been there for her.
Speaker 3: He loves her, and because of that, she was able
Speaker 3: to have the career that she wanted.
Speaker 2: Daniel, what are your thoughts?
Speaker 5: I'm tempted to agree. I mean, you know, it's it's
Speaker 5: the sexy thing to want her to be with Ryan Gosling.
Speaker 5: It's the sexy thing to have that fiery sorry Sebastian
Speaker 5: Park to do a Sebastian. It's the dangerous thing. But
Speaker 5: that's not life. Sometimes that's not life.
Speaker 1: Have thought that would have been the worst thing ever
Speaker 1: if she was with him, if you really think about it,
Speaker 1: as self centered as he was as well, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like she would have she needed somebody
Speaker 1: who's not going to be heartbreak.
Speaker 2: The way they look at each other at the end.
Speaker 4: O, thank so much, so so much what might have
Speaker 4: been between the two.
Speaker 2: I think that makes a better movie. It's too together.
Speaker 2: I don't want the I don't want the I don't
Speaker 2: want the ending to be any different. I'm just I
Speaker 2: love the ending. I think it's brilliant in that it
Speaker 2: gives the audience this discussion, and they can have this
Speaker 2: discussion this many years later. This, I just my personal
Speaker 2: interpretation is that they that there was a longing for
Speaker 2: what could have been.
Speaker 1: We could do how about this? How about this? Let's
Speaker 1: do the Notebook.
Speaker 2: At the end of the Notebook as well as I
Speaker 2: know Lala Lane, oh, you.
Speaker 1: Just do it like this. At the end of the
Speaker 1: movie the Notebook, she's with the dude that she you know,
Speaker 1: fell in love with on the lake, that, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, instead of the other guy, right, the
Speaker 1: one that was the good guy right at the end.
Speaker 1: It's not like her life would have been that much different.
Speaker 1: I think she would have still now gone back to uh.
Speaker 1: She would have had a great life with him in
Speaker 1: the Notebook, she would had a great life with that guy.
Speaker 1: She would have had a great life with the Ryan
Speaker 1: Goslin character and this one in La La Lande. I
Speaker 1: feel like it's the same thing. She would have had
Speaker 1: a great life with this dude and she would have
Speaker 1: had a great like she's having a great life with
Speaker 1: the guy. There is no wrong answer at the end
Speaker 1: for her. For him, it's a fucking huge difference, bro.
Speaker 1: And that's why you're saying, I don't know if he's
Speaker 1: happy or not. The difference at the end is in
Speaker 1: his mind. Holy shit, we would have been I would
Speaker 1: have been jay z I would you know? To her
Speaker 1: Beyonce instead, I'm fucking underground backpack rapper. And who's still
Speaker 1: in the club.
Speaker 2: But he has club, he has his own jazz club.
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he don't got his own label. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: And that's not my interpresion at all. I'm sorry, audience
Speaker 2: will stop.
Speaker 1: Some metation is the temptation? Listen?
Speaker 4: My point is you talk about La land.
Speaker 2: Oh really, this podcast? What if this potat just became
Speaker 2: one hundred percent each week we talk about No, I
Speaker 2: just I just on that he's got his own jazz club.
Speaker 2: He's happy. I'm sure he's like hooking up. I'm saying
Speaker 2: he's content with his career, his dreams come true. He
Speaker 2: owns the jazz club. But then the love of his
Speaker 2: life walks back in with her husband, and I always
Speaker 2: felt that he was crushed. Okay, Yeah, and then he
Speaker 2: dropped the ball by not going to Paris and by
Speaker 2: not going to her one woman show.
Speaker 1: He didn't he wasn't invited.
Speaker 2: Well, he fucked up by not going to the one
Speaker 2: woman show for sure. That's where he To be fair,
Speaker 2: I'm glad did not to sit through that woman show.
Speaker 2: It didn't look that great.
Speaker 6: Okay, she became a movie star because of it, right,
Speaker 6: But that doesn't mean a genius talented actress necessarily writes
Speaker 6: the best one woman show that you have to sit
Speaker 6: through for two hours and be like, it looks like
Speaker 6: you're having so much fun up there.
Speaker 2: To Pasadena or something like that. I don't know. All
Speaker 2: right back to we'll take a break and then we're
Speaker 2: going to finish our summary. We'll be right back after this.
Speaker 2: What you're trying to get into one day or shoe
Speaker 2: what you're trying to do?
Speaker 1: Advertisements and we're back, all right? Likes a little assfl
Speaker 1: They don't even act like you don't okay, I think
Speaker 1: there was a lot of ass play in this episode.
Speaker 2: How do you know there's ass play?
Speaker 1: I'm just guessing, Okay, I'm assuming, I'm assuming making an
Speaker 1: ass out of you and me.
Speaker 2: I'm okay. So Drew Cox says he's going to take
Speaker 2: a look. By the way, Beard fa Say still works
Speaker 2: at this hospital. I saw.
Speaker 1: I have to say, so of these people in the
Speaker 1: background are playing interns and they were interned when we
Speaker 1: were interns, So there's something wrong.
Speaker 2: Well, Beard fa Say is definitely a doctor, he's not
Speaker 2: an intern, and he's still.
Speaker 1: Well Sean is an intern and he was. And then
Speaker 1: what the fuck is Reggie in the purple Scrubs doing
Speaker 1: in the in the rounds?
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe he decided to become a med student.
Speaker 1: But why does he still got the purple on?
Speaker 2: I don't know. It was probably like them not know
Speaker 2: the rules of the different scrubs colors episode one or something.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Boy, they're already crossing, They're already crossing
Speaker 1: the line.
Speaker 2: Cox takes an interest in Drew.
Speaker 1: And let's say why he takes an interest in Drew
Speaker 1: Cox does not. Cox likes to pick on the weaker ones,
Speaker 1: the weaker, the weaker, uh, insecure uh interns. Cox has
Speaker 1: always enjoyed picking on and he's doing it to Lucy
Speaker 1: carry Bhay's character. And Drew sees it and decides to
Speaker 1: jump in the way and be a shield for Lucy
Speaker 1: and be like a big brother to stop Cox's rage
Speaker 1: on her and turned the attention elsewhere because he's been
Speaker 1: in jail and he's you know, we learned that his
Speaker 1: backstory is that he dropped out of he dropped he
Speaker 1: flunked out or he.
Speaker 2: Like I think he had dropped out or flamed out,
Speaker 2: meaning just emotionally couldn't handle. Because there's a lot of
Speaker 2: references to how hard is the am Men student, and
Speaker 2: there's some there's some there's a couple of references to like,
Speaker 2: you guys aren't going to last and and and so
Speaker 2: he flamed out and then for some reason he was
Speaker 2: in jail.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's something that he did.
Speaker 2: I don't know if we ever learned that. In these
Speaker 2: twelve episodes, we'll find out.
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll see, But Joe seems to get a kick
Speaker 1: out of him.
Speaker 2: And then JD, as we said earlier, finally talks to Lucy.
Speaker 2: And that's kind of nice because he feels like he's
Speaker 2: a really bad teacher. He doesn't get invited out to
Speaker 2: party with them. They don't come to his beer party
Speaker 2: in the classroom. Only Turk shows up and JD has
Speaker 2: these glow stick necklaces to wear, and Turk won't even
Speaker 2: wear the glowstick necklaces.
Speaker 1: And then they go on to walk and the that's
Speaker 1: kind of off brand though.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like Turk would have rock the glowstick necklace.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's him and JD. They're on about they're outside.
Speaker 1: I love that term, by the way, what yeah sad
Speaker 1: outside said like if you want to instead of what
Speaker 1: you're trying to get into, Yeah, you want to go outside.
Speaker 2: That's a term.
Speaker 1: That's the new. Remember when you was a kid and
Speaker 1: used to say that to people, Yo, you going outside?
Speaker 1: Uh huh, that's back. But for adults, we outside, Yo,
Speaker 1: we outside, Yo meet us outside, were coming out of
Speaker 1: we outside you And when you outside, you got you
Speaker 1: gotta be really outside. According to Beyonce, because if you're
Speaker 1: not that, you're not that outside, right.
Speaker 2: I'll start using that because I like what you're trying
Speaker 2: to get into.
Speaker 1: I need to. I still like what you're trying to
Speaker 1: get into.
Speaker 2: Don't get a twisted So when you when I text
Speaker 2: you to do something, you want me to say, do
Speaker 2: you want to go outside?
Speaker 1: I maan, if you could find a funny way to
Speaker 1: say it, you're.
Speaker 2: Trying to go outside?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I always think about you, and I'm like, if it
Speaker 2: just feels like you're not trying to get into.
Speaker 1: Anything, I'm not trying to r s v P.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you didn't rs VP on my birthday.
Speaker 1: I'll be at your brunch. Bro. I'm fucking skipping Vegas
Speaker 1: to go to your brunch. Bro. Why were you going
Speaker 1: to guess my kid got made hoops basketball? I'm skipping
Speaker 1: that it to be at your brunch. Bro.
Speaker 2: He's gonna take them. He's not ask some other parents
Speaker 2: to take them.
Speaker 1: Man, come on now, really, parenting one O one, you can't.
Speaker 2: You can't have other parents that you trust.
Speaker 1: You sleepovers either.
Speaker 2: Sorry, guys, because of his nut allergy.
Speaker 1: That's one reason these motherfuckers I don't know. These motherfuckers
Speaker 1: they know that they know that they might know the kids.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: These does want to have a.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to have if your kids
Speaker 1: want to sleep over here, that's cool. But there's no
Speaker 1: way I'm letting my kids sleep over your house. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I've even I've even I've even I've even designed my
Speaker 1: house so that if my kid wants to have friends over,
Speaker 1: it's fun for the kids when they get here and
Speaker 1: they can have fun.
Speaker 2: Have a question.
Speaker 1: She's not going nowhere, and she's not going nowhere to go.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, very if there's a select few, there's a
Speaker 1: very select few, and you have to and my wife
Speaker 1: has either vetted, like.
Speaker 2: Straight up, man, vetting's important, you got a vat no.
Speaker 1: But even vetting, even vetting doesn't necessarily crack the service.
Speaker 1: Anybody could be anybody in an interview, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, I could be somebody else. I'm i fucking
Speaker 1: somebody else in every interview that I go with.
Speaker 2: So your kids will never your kids will never be
Speaker 2: allowed to sleep at a friend's.
Speaker 1: House, not until they're much older.
Speaker 2: So those poor kids are like, I just want to
Speaker 2: go to a movie and sleep over my friend's house. No,
Speaker 2: go to a movie.
Speaker 1: No, you can go to a movie. I'll take you
Speaker 1: to a movie. If that's the case. I don't mind
Speaker 1: that shit. You're not sleeping over them. I'll be picking
Speaker 1: you up. There you go, all right, un everybody starts
Speaker 1: to go down. Guess who's coming to get you? What
Speaker 1: time you're going to bed? You don't know. I'll be
Speaker 1: there at eight thirty, nine thirty the latest.
Speaker 2: That's what's up. That's what's up. That, my friends, is
Speaker 2: what's up? So we Joel organized a debate between some fans. Hell, Joelle,
Speaker 2: how did this work out? What happened?
Speaker 3: So we asked you guys to send you your voicemails
Speaker 3: to scrupsiheart atgmail dot com, picking an episode and whether
Speaker 3: you loved it or you hated it. So we got
Speaker 3: a ton of emails, a handful of voicemails. If you
Speaker 3: want to send in for any future episodes, just make
Speaker 3: sure you put like which episode it is in the title.
Speaker 3: So we have one positive person in one who is
Speaker 3: not feeling season nine.
Speaker 2: All right, let me ask you a question before we continue.
Speaker 2: Were these people saying the whole season or specific episodes?
Speaker 3: I reach out to them and ask them to record
Speaker 3: specifically on season one episode one.
Speaker 1: So that's okay.
Speaker 2: So if you're going to something different, if you're gonna
Speaker 2: submit going forward, what we'd like you to do if
Speaker 2: you want to be on the air is pick a
Speaker 2: specific episode and put in the subject heading to Joel,
Speaker 2: this is about season nine episode four. Here's why I
Speaker 2: love it, Here's why I hate it. Maybe put season
Speaker 2: nine episode four love or season nine episode four hate,
Speaker 2: just to make it simple for Jewell, because she's a
Speaker 2: very busy woman, very smart, and and Carmen who helps us.
Speaker 1: Carmen, shout out Carmen.
Speaker 2: And what's the max time, Joell? Like three minutes.
Speaker 4: Maxe minutes max?
Speaker 2: Anyone audio audio?
Speaker 3: Okay, So this is for Scrubs season nine, episode one.
Speaker 3: We'll start with Aaron.
Speaker 4: She was not a fan.
Speaker 1: Oh Aaron, Okay, go ahead, Hey.
Speaker 8: Zach, Donald, Joel, and Daniel. My name is Aaron Fodorco
Speaker 8: and I'm calling on behalf.
Speaker 7: Of all season nine haters.
Speaker 8: Specifically, I'm going to talk about why I hated season
Speaker 8: nine episode one so much. It is the biggest tease
Speaker 8: of my entire life. To me, what made Scrubs so
Speaker 8: perfect was the fact that Jad was casted perfectly by
Speaker 8: Zach Raft. Thank you, and anyone who knows me knows
Speaker 8: I love Zach Brath. So season nine was an absolute
Speaker 8: keeyas because it gave me exactly what I wanted.
Speaker 7: From the start.
Speaker 8: I got an opening monologue about how he talks about
Speaker 8: Sacred Heart and his time there, and from that moment
Speaker 8: he has one of the funniest episodes I have seen
Speaker 8: from him in a long time.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 8: Some examples are the entire scene where JD and Turk
Speaker 8: are trying to find each other in the hospital and
Speaker 8: the eagle scene where they are running around the campus
Speaker 8: and they run into doctor Cox. But I think the
Speaker 8: funniest thing about this episode is when JD says to
Speaker 8: doctor Cox, stay open for business in your heart cage.
Speaker 8: That is probably the hardest I've laughed this entire season
Speaker 8: of Scrubs, and it is a shame that it was
Speaker 8: given to me in season nine, episode one. And finally,
Speaker 8: what made Scrubs work was the chemistry that was built
Speaker 8: between the core cast over eight seasons, and Bill Lawrence
Speaker 8: gave us exactly that in season nine, episode one. Scrubs
Speaker 8: is synonymous with JD, which is anonymous with Zach Brath
Speaker 8: and The only thing that season nine left me wanting
Speaker 8: more of.
Speaker 7: Was Zach Brath JD and Zach Brath in the same
Speaker 7: way that Christopher Walkin needed more Cowbo.
Speaker 8: I believe it even nine of Scrubs to have worked better,
Speaker 8: it had to have been named something completely different. And
Speaker 8: the only reason that I am able to forgive Bill
Speaker 8: Lawrence for Scrubs is that he created ted Lasso. Thank you, guys,
Speaker 8: Love you guys. This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for
Speaker 8: letting me talk my shit on season nine. I've been
Speaker 8: waiting a lifetime to do this.
Speaker 2: What's your name again, name Aaron? Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: Thank you for the very nice words about me and
Speaker 2: well said. I think she mentioned a couple things we mentioned,
Speaker 2: although she happened to love the moment when we did
Speaker 2: an eagle and you know what I think.
Speaker 1: I think this is probably one of the best ideas
Speaker 1: in a long time. And this is why if Star
Speaker 1: Wars did this, this would be great. People got to
Speaker 1: air out their fucking you know.
Speaker 2: What I'm saying, grievances, you know what I mean, and
Speaker 2: not be.
Speaker 1: Penalized for it and not judged for it or whatever.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. A young lady expressed everything
Speaker 1: she wanted to express. She has a very she's very
Speaker 1: fond of you, Zach, obviously. So I don't think the
Speaker 1: show would have worked. I don't think the show would
Speaker 1: have worked. Regard if you had, if you would have
Speaker 1: been in All six, I mean thirteen or twelve, I
Speaker 1: bet you she would have loved it. So I will
Speaker 1: say this is a great way. As long as you
Speaker 1: don't hurt nobody's feelings, I'm all for it. I'm sure.
Speaker 1: I'm sure there have people that said some shit like
Speaker 1: and this, I say something about this asshole and.
Speaker 2: Make Does this make you want to go? Do you
Speaker 2: wish now that you could go on a Star Wars
Speaker 2: podcast and say the grievances you have about something you
Speaker 2: don't like in Star Wars?
Speaker 1: Everybody knows my grievances. Fucking fucking Star Wars knows my grievances.
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm gonna ever do a Star Wars again.
Speaker 2: Because you think you've hurt someone's feelings.
Speaker 1: I might have hurt someone's feelings.
Speaker 2: Dave Feloney, do you think that, Davey No way. I've
Speaker 2: heard just like you say fuck your sound effects machine.
Speaker 1: Do you think no definitely feel like whoever was involved
Speaker 1: with the sequel trilogy might be like, I don't like like,
Speaker 1: I don't like Donald Faison anymore.
Speaker 2: You sure they love you. Although when we were at
Speaker 2: the Pineo, you did give love to Kathleen Kennedy's twin
Speaker 2: instead of her.
Speaker 1: That may have heard. And I was being fake too
Speaker 1: when I did it too, And I deserve that also, boy,
Speaker 1: and I was, and I deserve that.
Speaker 2: If you have an identical twin and you're hosting a
Speaker 2: giant premiere, I'm sure a lot of people are gonna
Speaker 2: get confused. She should wear a T shirt that says
Speaker 2: I'm not Kathleen Kennedy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but also I shouldn't have went up to Kathleen
Speaker 1: Kennedy and or who I thought was Kathleen Kennedy and
Speaker 1: lied my ass off on how much I enjoyed the
Speaker 1: movie because I really didn't.
Speaker 2: Well, now you're definitely not gonna be all right, Joell,
Speaker 2: Let's hear the person who loves Season nine, episode one, Dan,
Speaker 2: I'll take it away, got you? Here is here is Samantha?
Speaker 7: He y'all.
Speaker 9: My name is Samantha and I'm from North Carolina. Episode
Speaker 9: one of season nine is my favorite.
Speaker 7: Because it gives you a sense of normalcy. You have
Speaker 7: right off the bat, JD walking in doing his inner
Speaker 7: monologue thing.
Speaker 9: We have Elliott over here yelling at Med students in
Speaker 9: our high pitch, cute little voice, cute little pregnant belly Turk, he's.
Speaker 7: Being a silly old self.
Speaker 9: We've got doctor Cox with his egotistical, diabolical cutthroat itself
Speaker 9: telling these med students You're gonna kill somebody, and you
Speaker 9: still like. And then you got j D and Churk
Speaker 9: acting like we've not seen each other in what I'm
Speaker 9: guessing years, but they just carpolled to school together.
Speaker 7: But they're running to each other.
Speaker 9: And it's like a flashback in a sense from their
Speaker 9: honey like or Carla and Turks honeymoon, and I guess
Speaker 9: Judi and Turks honeymoon.
Speaker 1: We were together.
Speaker 9: But I also like the med students. You have Lucy,
Speaker 9: Drew and Cole. They all bring this weird little trio
Speaker 9: dynamic that you had with Elliott, Turk and JD. And
Speaker 9: it was kind of like a warming you up to
Speaker 9: a new thing. Also, like the fact that Joe was
Speaker 9: brought over. Joe was probably one of my absolute favorites
Speaker 9: in season eight, like she had this just dark self
Speaker 9: about her, and I feel like I have a dark side,
Speaker 9: like dark self, like dark humor, and I love that
Speaker 9: about her, Like she just cracks these dark jokes to
Speaker 9: kind of deal with things, and I feel like I
Speaker 9: do the same thing, so I basically connected with that.
Speaker 7: So her coming over was a nice adjustment as well.
Speaker 7: But honestly, my.
Speaker 9: Favorite part that still actually made everything still feel normal
Speaker 9: was when doctor Cox took on Drew.
Speaker 7: As his number one.
Speaker 9: And of course, you know how JD gets when Doctor
Speaker 9: Cox takes any interest in anybody else, he gets so jealous.
Speaker 9: And I absolutely love that shit, because it's either doctor
Speaker 9: Cox just likes to fuck with him about it or
Speaker 9: he just well, doctor Cox just knows who's going to
Speaker 9: be a good doctor and so he takes on that person,
Speaker 9: and and even j D knows that, but he still
Speaker 9: gets jealous because he never gets that affection from doctor Cox.
Speaker 9: I feel like it was just a great transition into
Speaker 9: season nine, And to be honest, I liked season nine.
Speaker 7: I'm probably gonna be one of the only ones that do.
Speaker 9: But I enjoyed the season, and I enjoyed this podcast,
Speaker 9: and I want to say thank you guys so much
Speaker 9: for this opportunity. Thank you Joe, Well and Donald and Zach.
Speaker 9: I love y'all so much. And hey, Daniel nice, I
Speaker 9: thought she was.
Speaker 2: Gonna skip you down, but you gotta shout.
Speaker 7: Out wonderful thank you again so much.
Speaker 2: Very sweet Samantha. Right, thank you Samantha very much, and
Speaker 2: go ahead, don.
Speaker 1: I You know, I once again think that this is
Speaker 1: something that a bunch of companies, and especially tentpole shows
Speaker 1: and movies should do. You should have the opportunity to
Speaker 1: as long as you don't hurt anybody's feelings, the positive
Speaker 1: and the negative, what works and what doesn't work, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean?
Speaker 2: That achould be an interesting way to review a movie
Speaker 2: because it's like what Ciskel and Ebert used to do.
Speaker 2: You know, remember that great show where they would like
Speaker 2: pash it out sometimes because now now things are just
Speaker 2: rotten tomatoes. I was listening to Samantha, and I'm thinking,
Speaker 2: like I would love to hear like people do it
Speaker 2: like I mean a pro and con of the film,
Speaker 2: Like let me hear the person who loved it and
Speaker 2: then the person who didn't like it. And there are
Speaker 2: reasons like as opposed to just like someone's blanket statement.
Speaker 2: That was interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, as long as you don't disrespect anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and be respectful as both of those as both
Speaker 2: of those women were respectful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what's up.
Speaker 2: Well, No, I did I think in the in the
Speaker 2: macro when I zoom out, I did not dislike it
Speaker 2: as much as I thought I was going to.
Speaker 1: I will agree with you.
Speaker 2: The leads are clearly charming. I mean, not us, The
Speaker 2: new leads are clearly charming people. And was written by
Speaker 2: Bill Lawrence. It was directed by Michael Spiller, who's a
Speaker 2: wonderful director. And there's it. That is episode one of
Speaker 2: season nine. Everybody donald is going.
Speaker 1: To be interesting. This is going to be interesting because
Speaker 1: you know, you get it, I get it. The gripe
Speaker 1: is what a difference in name makes. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean by naming it Scrubs, everybody has beef. I
Speaker 1: really do believe that if it wasn't called Scrubs and
Speaker 1: it was a spin off of Scrubs and intended to
Speaker 1: be a spinoff of Scrubs, like if it looked like
Speaker 1: a spin off book, you know what I mean, it
Speaker 1: would be way more successful and people would have gravitated
Speaker 1: towards It was because I laughed, right, I laughed because
Speaker 1: I laughed a couple of times out loud. And there
Speaker 1: are Scrubs episodes where I didn't laugh at all and
Speaker 1: you laugh it.
Speaker 2: Did you laugh at stay open for business? In your heart?
Speaker 1: Came dude? I laughed at us. I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1: I laughed at the guy love shit and me knocking
Speaker 1: dude over.
Speaker 2: I laughed at your face is so funny.
Speaker 1: The determination to hug you. I did not laugh at
Speaker 1: the prison line, but I laughed at everything else. You
Speaker 1: know what I mean?
Speaker 2: You know it's good. One thing I thought as we
Speaker 2: were listening to these women's opinions was like, this exercise
Speaker 2: might be informative if and when we do a Scrubs reunion,
Speaker 2: like to help us not fall in well a bill,
Speaker 2: but us as well, to not fall into pitfalls. You know,
Speaker 2: how can we make that something new and fresh and
Speaker 2: different while still giving the audience something they want, which
Speaker 2: is seeing everyone and all the characters and where they
Speaker 2: are these days.
Speaker 1: The other question is do you bring back the people
Speaker 1: from med school? No? No, but they're all huge stars now,
Speaker 1: all of them. All of them are big stars Sarry Dave.
Speaker 1: We'll see we're gonna introduce We're gonna introduce a couple
Speaker 1: of other characters.
Speaker 2: I love that Rob Maschio makes a little cameo with.
Speaker 1: Credits.
Speaker 2: Rob will definitely be in the in the new incarnation.
Speaker 1: I would love to see.
Speaker 2: He's gonna have to get in shape. I don't think
Speaker 2: he's got that body currently.
Speaker 1: He looks pretty good in the pictures.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying. I'm just saying that I think Rob
Speaker 2: would be the first to say, if you want me
Speaker 2: in the banana hammock, I need to go to the gym.
Speaker 1: No, because the banana hammock is going to be full. No,
Speaker 1: if this it matters right, It's not about it's not
Speaker 1: about the physique.
Speaker 2: We know that he's we know that, we know that
Speaker 2: he's got a third leg. We made about a bunch.
Speaker 1: Of a story.
Speaker 6: Should know.
Speaker 2: So Gadder round you here, up, Gadder round you here.
Speaker 1: Up.
Speaker 10: Screetcha mi ando mm hmm
