Speaker 1: That's real. Yeah, Joe Well called it a firefighter dad mustache.
Speaker 1: It doesn't look like a firefighter dad mustache. It looks
Speaker 1: a little gay pornish. Though, I'm not gonna lie. Ray,
Speaker 1: I'll take either one, both both, both styles very very sexy. Sure,
Speaker 1: there's firefighter dad gay porn. Dude. I'm willing to bet
Speaker 1: money that there's a firefighter dad gay porn thing out.
Speaker 1: What do you think of it? Listen, I tried to
Speaker 1: roll a full beard like yours. It didn't work out
Speaker 1: so well, and I've decided to try this for a while.
Speaker 1: I think you look handsome as always. I ran down
Speaker 1: the ram by the way, I had this like Pavlovian response.
Speaker 1: Now that I'm like dialing into the zoom call for
Speaker 1: this podcast, and I just start humming, Iran, what's up?
Speaker 1: Joe All, what's up? Daniel? How's it going, y'all? How's
Speaker 1: it God? Team? Hi? Hi, everybody seen each other in
Speaker 1: a really long time. I know it's good to have you.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the broadcast, ladies and gentlemen. For the very
Speaker 1: first time in fake Doctors, real friends, I've decided to
Speaker 1: join the spirit of Donald phase on and have a
Speaker 1: little Rose oh, nicee. I want to go downstairs and
Speaker 1: get me a drink? Now, can we do Can we
Speaker 1: take a second to do that. Why do you need
Speaker 1: to go down and get a drink right now? I
Speaker 1: guess because I want to sip some I want to
Speaker 1: sip something. But she's gonna ruin my momentum. I'm on
Speaker 1: fire right now. Okay, Well then if you're on fire,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you go. I'm gonna let you go.
Speaker 1: Why don't take a break. When we take a break,
Speaker 1: you can run down. We take a break, I'll run down. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I thought I thought i'd phase on out a
Speaker 1: little and treat myself and treat yourself. Treat youself. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know when to stopped bourbon. It's rose. But I
Speaker 1: was gonna go down and get a little uh you know,
Speaker 1: alagash um they make a triple. Now, this ship was
Speaker 1: so expensive. First of all, I spent twenty one dollars
Speaker 1: on a bottle of beer. I've never spent that much
Speaker 1: money on beer in my life. I didn't even know
Speaker 1: beer could cost twenty one dollars. Ridiculous, right, But apparently
Speaker 1: it's been aged in uh three times, yes, three times.
Speaker 1: It's old be it's so old. Um, I miss you,
Speaker 1: I miss you so much and hurt sometimes right now.
Speaker 1: I cried in this episode. Yeah, it's very moving at
Speaker 1: the end. I cried like a baby. It's very moving
Speaker 1: in the end. Yeah, just put a good episode. It's
Speaker 1: episode written by Bill Lawrence. They are in the zone,
Speaker 1: the writers, and not to not to minimize the brilliant
Speaker 1: work of the cast, but I feel the writers are
Speaker 1: really in the zone in this section of season two,
Speaker 1: because they're all really good. I'm gonna agree with you.
Speaker 1: We had this conversation with Johnny. We're getting towards the
Speaker 1: end of the series of the season. Uh now, and
Speaker 1: look at how we're all starting to click. Everything's starting
Speaker 1: to click, you know what I mean. It's really amazing.
Speaker 1: And this was the very first time they ever introduced
Speaker 1: am I right, or does the West Side Story thing happen? Ray?
Speaker 1: Was that season one music? Okay, so other than the
Speaker 1: West Side Story thing? So I guess technically the second,
Speaker 1: but this is the first time we enter well, I
Speaker 1: guess we could say this is the first time we
Speaker 1: introduced a musical element that was dramatic, right, because that
Speaker 1: was so broad and silly, right, I guess so, I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess we could count uh Sam and Judy's okay,
Speaker 1: you're right, but they were sort of serenading. This was
Speaker 1: a fantasy of going into Jill Tracy's death, fantasy that
Speaker 1: dying was like a Broadway musical. Dude, I cried so
Speaker 1: hard and a lot. I got goosebumps. I got goosebumps.
Speaker 1: I'm getting goosebumps right now talking about it. But when
Speaker 1: it happened, I got goosebumps on every inch of my body.
Speaker 1: That's how powerful it was. It's such a strong moment.
Speaker 1: And maybe it's because of you know, Nick, maybe it's
Speaker 1: because of Amanda, you know, maybe I don't know, but
Speaker 1: it just put me in a like I I was weeping, weeping.
Speaker 1: Do you think that? Do you think that the climate
Speaker 1: of of COVID and of course losing our friend has
Speaker 1: made you overall more emotional to things? I definitely, you know.
Speaker 1: I Okay, So here's the thing about here's the thing
Speaker 1: about what COVID has done. And we haven't seen anything
Speaker 1: like this, and I don't even think when AIDS happened,
Speaker 1: it was like this, like people had months to live
Speaker 1: when AIDS came around back and when we were kids,
Speaker 1: but also we were so young we didn't really comprehend
Speaker 1: aids when when it was first going everywhere. This is like,
Speaker 1: we're forty five and forty six, Like I think we
Speaker 1: have such a more of awareness of it, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Right, absolutely, absolutely, And you know, people
Speaker 1: that you thought you'd have more time with are now gone,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like, you know, when Nick
Speaker 1: was here, we didn't hang out that much. We hung
Speaker 1: out a little bit, but we didn't hang out that much,
Speaker 1: and we were you were just you were just kind
Speaker 1: of getting to know him, getting to know him, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And I guess I want to
Speaker 1: say I took that for granted. I took for granted
Speaker 1: that he would be around for a while and that
Speaker 1: we would have way more time to become tighter because
Speaker 1: I knew that you and him were very close, and
Speaker 1: when you would you're very close to someone, it becomes
Speaker 1: for me. For me, it's like, all right, if Zach's
Speaker 1: close to this person, this person has to be a
Speaker 1: cool person, so let me go and you know, get
Speaker 1: to know this person. So Nick and I were on
Speaker 1: the verge of becoming closer, and then he was gone.
Speaker 1: And when I watched this episode, that's what this, that's
Speaker 1: what this reminded me of. You know, we take so
Speaker 1: many things for granted. I'm also always moved by bravery
Speaker 1: in the face of death. My father when he was dying.
Speaker 1: You remember him turning to my stepmother when he got
Speaker 1: the diagnosis that he had cancer, and he said, we're
Speaker 1: gonna We're gonna deal with this with dignity. And and
Speaker 1: I think that Nick, I'm not sure how conscious he was. Um,
Speaker 1: I don't even know if he knew what was going
Speaker 1: on past a certain point. I have no idea, but um,
Speaker 1: but I was very moved in this episode two about
Speaker 1: about what it's about is someone who's facing their death
Speaker 1: with with pride and dignity and strength and not being afraid.
Speaker 1: And I just I think that that, you know, I
Speaker 1: guess what we're both saying is in this It kind
Speaker 1: of caught us both off guard that we're watching this
Speaker 1: network comedy that we were both in and usually we
Speaker 1: sit around talking about laughs and and what made us
Speaker 1: laugh and in each moment in the funny fantasies, and
Speaker 1: then this was very moving because of the death that's
Speaker 1: in the air. Both both globally and and and in
Speaker 1: particular in our lives with Nick. Dude, that's exactly what
Speaker 1: it is. And I don't know, man, I I you know,
Speaker 1: it just made it made me realize how many things
Speaker 1: in life I've taken for granted. And you know, I tried,
Speaker 1: you know, since Nick passed, I try every day to
Speaker 1: tell you know, if we talk, I try to tell you,
Speaker 1: you know, before we hang up. I always try to
Speaker 1: tell you I love you. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: When we're on this call right now, when we do
Speaker 1: this zoom while we're recording our podcast, Fake Doctor's Real Friends, Uh,
Speaker 1: when you don't have to give a plug to the
Speaker 1: people that are listening, I just I just thought I
Speaker 1: should plug. It's sort of a fool's errand yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: but h but uh, you know, just in case they
Speaker 1: forgot what they were listening to. Um. But we say
Speaker 1: I love you to each other. You know, I've I've
Speaker 1: I've never met Joel in person, and I love her
Speaker 1: and I tell her I love her before we hang up.
Speaker 1: I tell her I love her. I tell Dan the
Speaker 1: same thing. And you know, it's throw COVID out of
Speaker 1: the situation. Let's just let's just talk about life in general.
Speaker 1: Nothing's promised. Tomorrow's not promised, you know, the next hours
Speaker 1: not promised. But I think it's important that we tell
Speaker 1: our loved ones and the people that mean so much
Speaker 1: to us how we feel about them. Yeah, and because
Speaker 1: it one, it could it makes them feel wonderful, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Oh, you know, to be loved
Speaker 1: by somebody feels good? Am I wrong? Yeah? It does cost,
Speaker 1: and it doesn't cost you anything to profess your love.
Speaker 1: That doesn't cost. It doesn't cost. I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: Bernie Brown right now, but it doesn't. It doesn't cost you,
Speaker 1: as a human being anything to express it. And we shouldn't.
Speaker 1: I think what you're saying, when I'm getting from what
Speaker 1: you're saying, is we shouldn't be shy or insecure about
Speaker 1: expressing our love. Absolutely not. And that's because, of course,
Speaker 1: when the person dies, you go, oh my god, I
Speaker 1: hope that I told them enough times. I love with
Speaker 1: my father. You know, he was eighty four and cancer
Speaker 1: was ramping up, so we had plenty of time to
Speaker 1: be rallying and to be and to be hugging him
Speaker 1: and kissing him and telling we love you and clearing
Speaker 1: up any bullshit. But with you know, with with Nick,
Speaker 1: it was just like we dropped him off of the hospital.
Speaker 1: We didn't we didn't get to say anything right. It's crazy,
Speaker 1: you know. I mean I did face time him goodbye,
Speaker 1: but I don't know. I have no sense of I
Speaker 1: have no sense if you heard any word of it.
Speaker 1: I feel bad these people turned in for a comedic podcast. Well,
Speaker 1: you know, we're talking about the episode. We're keeping it
Speaker 1: real as they say we're keeping they say we're keeping it.
Speaker 1: We're talking about the episode. Let's get into some other
Speaker 1: things though, before we start this episode. Dude, Okay, so
Speaker 1: the mayor has said that he will shut off your
Speaker 1: water in Los Angeles, And okay, if you throw a
Speaker 1: party and there's a bunch of people in your house
Speaker 1: and you've been warned now that the mayor said the
Speaker 1: mayor has said I will cut off your water, I
Speaker 1: have a little bit of a problem with this. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna dude, he's trying to come up with some
Speaker 1: out of the box ideas. These people are still throwing
Speaker 1: fucking parties every time. I totally understand that. I totally
Speaker 1: get that shit. But when everybody leaves, I still need
Speaker 1: to wash my ass. Well, you shouldn't have a party
Speaker 1: that mother? Why did you throw want to cook something?
Speaker 1: How can how can Garcetti our mayor punish you, the
Speaker 1: idiot you through a COVID party? He can? You know?
Speaker 1: I think the reason with the thing with the fine
Speaker 1: is people people with money are like, fuck it, I'll
Speaker 1: pay the fine, um, and he needed to come up
Speaker 1: with some out of the box way to punish people.
Speaker 1: And then what can the government control your power in
Speaker 1: your water? He's I'm shutting that shit off right now. Look,
Speaker 1: some people are mad about this, some people peeled about this,
Speaker 1: like Joel and Daniel. What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 1: Don't you think it's kind of a badass, out of
Speaker 1: the box idea. It feels like the best parental threat
Speaker 1: that's never gonna happen, Like off is brand going down there.
Speaker 1: But the threat might keep me, you know, in control
Speaker 1: and my my temper, my expectations of what I might
Speaker 1: be able to get away with. So I feel like
Speaker 1: it's one of those I said, a twenty four hour
Speaker 1: power shut off is like a really great like brod,
Speaker 1: don't do it. It's like a partial human access that
Speaker 1: makes you feel weird. It's like a right, Donald. I
Speaker 1: always see Donald do that shit with his kids. Never,
Speaker 1: he never gets to three. He's like two. Right. It's
Speaker 1: not because my kids all of a sudden, it's like, Yo, dude,
Speaker 1: Dad dad dad Dad, Okay, Dad Dad Dad Dad Dad.
Speaker 1: I'm okay, I'm good. It's because I can't my punishment.
Speaker 1: I don't want to deliver the punishment. Dan'l say something. Yeah, Personally,
Speaker 1: I think, you know, the big problem with people throwing
Speaker 1: parties in la is that, like it's not you know,
Speaker 1: Joe rich person inviting their friends in the neighbor hood
Speaker 1: over to their house. It's like kids who will rent
Speaker 1: an empty mansion invite five hundred people over and like
Speaker 1: even then they're drinking the thirty racks they brought over in,
Speaker 1: smoking weed in the backyard and then leaving, Like turning
Speaker 1: off the water in power at that place isn't going
Speaker 1: to do anybody. The poor guy who rented in the
Speaker 1: house is like, yeah, I think you know, if if
Speaker 1: it's the kind of thing that's going to end up
Speaker 1: punishing a whole neighborhood, and it's a kind of a
Speaker 1: group effort to be like if you fuck this up,
Speaker 1: for everybody in the neighborhood. You're fucked then like that
Speaker 1: that really brings the community. But I mean what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: it's like, if you want to make it a punishment punishment,
Speaker 1: it's got to be a punishment punishment because if it's like,
Speaker 1: just turned off the water to this one place, you're
Speaker 1: suggesting that he dropped the water for the whole street. No,
Speaker 1: I mean like, I mean, look, I just I'm saying
Speaker 1: it's I don't know. I don't at least I at
Speaker 1: least I at least I at least appreciated. Listen. I
Speaker 1: love it when someone comes up with an out of
Speaker 1: the box idea. Yeah, looked, what the fuck? There was
Speaker 1: some meaning. There was some meaning in city hall where
Speaker 1: they were like, does anybody having out of the box site? Somebody?
Speaker 1: What if we turn off the water and power? I
Speaker 1: don't know, Oh, I don't know that. It's crazy. It's
Speaker 1: crazy because people don't give a fuck. As you see,
Speaker 1: I mean, as you see, oh man, you go into
Speaker 1: the store. There's some bullshit going on where people are like,
Speaker 1: I'm part of an alliance and we will sue you
Speaker 1: if I saw that. You know what I mean? That
Speaker 1: was a Mega. That was like an extra Karen, that
Speaker 1: was like Karen. That was like a doll, black diamond Karen.
Speaker 1: That's uber Karen's back. She had this fucking Karen had
Speaker 1: a fake Karen badge and she was giving out fake citations.
Speaker 1: Two employees of this story that told her to put
Speaker 1: on a mask. She was like, I'm with the Freedom Alliance,
Speaker 1: and you will be sued for infringing upon my right.
Speaker 1: I mean, the woman made a fucking badge. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: ptending to be a federal agent, which is definitely that's
Speaker 1: not that's definitely your crime. That's a felony. You cannot
Speaker 1: do that. It's just so Rudi, And what is this
Speaker 1: poor girl making six seventy five an hour gonna do?
Speaker 1: Sheking okay, she's She's like, it's also bad for that girl.
Speaker 1: She she clearly didn't understand if this was a legit
Speaker 1: paperwork or not. She was like, uh, okay, manager for you, right,
Speaker 1: she got her manager. Her manager was like, shot, I
Speaker 1: don't know, like the manager of a supermarket's gonna know whether.
Speaker 1: I mean, the woman was clearly fucking bad shit. I mean, anyway,
Speaker 1: was like a federal agent. We're in some strange times. People,
Speaker 1: and people are just losing their mind. But it's okay,
Speaker 1: it's okay, it's oh, are you sure that it's okay?
Speaker 1: I need you to come for me like you come
Speaker 1: for your children. Listen, it's all good at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, as j D says, yeah, some of
Speaker 1: them like this is gonna you know what, as a
Speaker 1: matter of fact, let's do this and then I'll get
Speaker 1: into my summary of the episode six seven. I'm sorries
Speaker 1: about show. We made about a bunch of docs and
Speaker 1: nurses stories. Yet around here, yato around here. I wanted
Speaker 1: to say, what's you're trying to get it? You know,
Speaker 1: if you say five, six and eight, it starts the
Speaker 1: theme song. But if you say what two three, it
Speaker 1: goes in what you're trying to get into? Dash watch
Speaker 1: you trying? Oh, there's been remixes of that song. Such
Speaker 1: a hit song. I got a lot of people telling
Speaker 1: me who were in the music industry that the song
Speaker 1: is fire. If it only had more than one lyric,
Speaker 1: it will be a hit. Well, look, man, you know,
Speaker 1: tell them to write some shit. I'm sure Charlie t
Speaker 1: can write something. Dudes writing five dollars foot long commercials
Speaker 1: now do Hey, listen, let Charlie make his money. Charlie
Speaker 1: get that money, baby. Everybody needs a blambo, right right,
Speaker 1: of course they do. I'm from that. It's not from
Speaker 1: the Donald Glover song. This is America. Make that money,
Speaker 1: make that money. Yeah, he does say that. He does
Speaker 1: say that. I love Donald Glover, man. I love Lando Calrissian.
Speaker 1: When from now on, whenever I see fucking Star Wars,
Speaker 1: Bengo Card everybody now on, whenever I see Donald Glover,
Speaker 1: he is. He's no longer childish scampino, He's now Lando.
Speaker 1: I don't give me, really the guy really did? Um?
Speaker 1: I never knew Donald Glover because I didn't watch the
Speaker 1: show he was on. I didn't watch Community Unit Community,
Speaker 1: And then I mean, holy shit, what I just had.
Speaker 1: I was so naive to the genius of this man.
Speaker 1: He's a special human being. He's got talent. Man reminds
Speaker 1: me a lot of my best friend Zach Reraff. Oh,
Speaker 1: so you're saying I'm like a Jewish Donald Glover. Sure, sure,
Speaker 1: if you want to, you want to put it into
Speaker 1: if you want to turn it into a religious thing,
Speaker 1: you are a Jewish players. The screenplay I've written is
Speaker 1: ready for your for your reading. Are you gonna are
Speaker 1: you gonna read this one? Any black people in it?
Speaker 1: There are some black excuse me, black African Americans. You
Speaker 1: can say black, we can't say. I just think it's
Speaker 1: so no. I don't think it's funny how some people
Speaker 1: white people are like nervous, They're not sure if they
Speaker 1: can say black or African American. So they start they
Speaker 1: end up they going like this, you don't know there
Speaker 1: are some African Americans. I think white people are a
Speaker 1: little confused at first. A lot I say black or
Speaker 1: African American. What's the verdict? I always say, I say black.
Speaker 1: I say black, But I feel like if I'm being formal,
Speaker 1: like if I was giving a speech, I would say
Speaker 1: African American. But if I'm talking to my two black
Speaker 1: friends here, I would say black. Is that okay? I
Speaker 1: have no problem with it. Let's come to the let's
Speaker 1: get into the breakdown, and then let's hear your summary. Okay,
Speaker 1: so ready this episode. You don't need to You don't
Speaker 1: need to stop watch anymore because I'm gonna not keep
Speaker 1: it with it, because I'm gonna keep it at thirty.
Speaker 1: We know we're gonna try and keep it in theird
Speaker 1: no partner, my joy. My joy is timing things. But
Speaker 1: that's yeah, but you like, my sister was a competitive
Speaker 1: swimmer when she was a child, and my dad got
Speaker 1: so into it. He was the guy with the parent
Speaker 1: who would have the stop watching around his neck. Would
Speaker 1: he'd be like, well, show shit, you can't that was
Speaker 1: slower than normal. No, he would scream at her so
Speaker 1: much that she said, fuck swimming. I hate this. But um,
Speaker 1: but that's a story for it. That's a ran for
Speaker 1: a different episode. But no, I enjoy timing you. Okay,
Speaker 1: you're ready, get it gone. This episode, Turk is ready
Speaker 1: for the next step in his relationship with Carla. Elliot's
Speaker 1: done changing into her scrubs and a co ed locker room.
Speaker 1: Jab and Cox both realized they make a good team.
Speaker 1: That's not what this episode's about. In a hospital, people
Speaker 1: come and go. Sometimes it's because it's where people work,
Speaker 1: but often it's because there sick and they die. We
Speaker 1: try so hard to control our destiny, We try so
Speaker 1: hard to tip the scale, but things don't work that way. Somehow,
Speaker 1: life and death always find a way to balance itself out.
Speaker 1: That's beautiful. I'm not even gonna tell you were four
Speaker 1: seconds over. That was so good. No, it really is
Speaker 1: a beautiful episode because it's got some funny as shit,
Speaker 1: in't it. And it's got some memorable stuff. I like
Speaker 1: you in these episodes. It's funny. Sometimes they have like
Speaker 1: three memorable moments that you'd like. Sarah and the burlesque
Speaker 1: outfit that you didn't even know we're all in the
Speaker 1: same episode. Um, but I remember doing that burlesque things
Speaker 1: Sarah too, Yes, and it's true and scrubs wickis it
Speaker 1: actually has a true bit of trivia that Bill bet
Speaker 1: her to go in her burlesque outfit to the Starbucks
Speaker 1: and get everyone coffees. Yeah, we thought it would be
Speaker 1: a big deal, but like in Hollywood, no one even
Speaker 1: like looked twice, right, that was a moment I always remember.
Speaker 1: And Rob, Rob looks so funny. You know some people
Speaker 1: with all have normal smoking a stogi. A stogy just
Speaker 1: fits perfectly in Rob's mouth, doesn't it. Guy, he looks
Speaker 1: like the guy who he's like, wait the way he's
Speaker 1: holding it and like sitting in the front row of
Speaker 1: this drift club. I know he's wearing Someone pointed out
Speaker 1: he's wearing black locks. ER's not his been an infamous
Speaker 1: banana hammock. Yeah, I noticed that too. I don't think
Speaker 1: banana hammock was introduced. Oh no, it was introduced because
Speaker 1: he goes, yeah, it was. Oh, it's hard to believe that.
Speaker 1: I guess that there must this must come from a
Speaker 1: true story of their being a co ed locker room
Speaker 1: in the hospital. But it's I am. I am with
Speaker 1: Ted on this. I don't mind a co ed locker room. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but don't you think in a co ed locker room,
Speaker 1: I imagine I've never think I've been in one, but
Speaker 1: people would be mostly covered up in the road or something,
Speaker 1: and then they go and they do they're changing. It
Speaker 1: wouldn't be like in this episode, there's this naked woman
Speaker 1: who's just walking around of horse. She looks like a model,
Speaker 1: and everyone's just everyone's gawking at her and there's nothing
Speaker 1: but there's nothing but boys in the locker room. In
Speaker 1: the locker room also, so it's like Sarah and this
Speaker 1: naked lady and then a bunch of dudes. And that's
Speaker 1: how I feel in the locker room because I never
Speaker 1: I never played sports, so I always thought it was weird.
Speaker 1: You know, in movies I see guys in the locker
Speaker 1: room all walking around naked and everyone's just smacking towels
Speaker 1: and asses and cocks are out. I always as I
Speaker 1: always feel weird whenever I'm in the locker room, like
Speaker 1: its cocks are up. I didn't I didn't say. I
Speaker 1: didn't say it was like a girl. I wasn't like
Speaker 1: I wasn't like asses and cocks. No, But I mean
Speaker 1: whenever I'm in like I am in a COVID. I'm
Speaker 1: not a covide. Whenever I am in a locker room,
Speaker 1: and like occasionally I go to a hotel, spa or something,
Speaker 1: and it's always like old man ass at the urinal
Speaker 1: and like the guy, and I just feel very uncomfortable
Speaker 1: with it. And it's jock. I wondered if you were
Speaker 1: more comfortable with just cos being woven around everywhere. This
Speaker 1: is so here's here's my whole thing on it. Because
Speaker 1: in the movies, we non jocks. We see these movies,
Speaker 1: it looks like everybody's fine with cocks flying around. I
Speaker 1: worry that somebody recognizes me and it's full of judgment
Speaker 1: and I can't stand that ship. Okay, but I'm talking
Speaker 1: about before you were famous, did you did you group shower? No,
Speaker 1: I would shower in my When we would go to
Speaker 1: the pool in my neighborhood, I would shower in my
Speaker 1: swim trunks. Yeah, I did the same thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, granted,
Speaker 1: if there weren't enough showers for all of us to
Speaker 1: get in, we would share showers, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: A bunch of dudes sharing showers. And I remember somebody saying,
Speaker 1: what are you guys gay, and me being like, wait
Speaker 1: a second, why why am I gay? Because I'm sharing
Speaker 1: a shower with this guy. It's freaking it's there are
Speaker 1: no showers available, and I want to go home. I
Speaker 1: want to sausage. It's interesting that the young male is
Speaker 1: so terrified of being gay. I mean, I'm sure, I'm hope,
Speaker 1: I hope that this is decreasing in in the psyche
Speaker 1: of young men. But I remember I was so worried.
Speaker 1: I once held my hand like this with like with
Speaker 1: a This is a true story. I just thought it
Speaker 1: the other day. I was a little boy and my
Speaker 1: hand was kind of like dangling like this, like a
Speaker 1: limpisted thing, and I looked at it as though I
Speaker 1: was being attacked, and I ran to my mom. I
Speaker 1: swear to God, this is so I was a little boy,
Speaker 1: so forgive me, but it was humiliating and it's made
Speaker 1: me think about it. But I went, mom, I did
Speaker 1: this with my wrist? Is I mean I'm gay? And
Speaker 1: it was so ingrained in us now, granted I was
Speaker 1: born in seventy five year born in seventy four, and
Speaker 1: our childhood was so ingrained that like, that's fucking horrible,
Speaker 1: Like mom, Mom, look at my wrist, Did I catch
Speaker 1: it right? Right? Look at my wrists? Or putting your
Speaker 1: hands on your waist the opposite way, so it's standing
Speaker 1: like Forrest Gump, and now you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Or I remember once in middle school or something, holding
Speaker 1: my books like around up to my chest like this,
Speaker 1: and someone who like, what are you fucking gay? And
Speaker 1: so anyway, just I think of all that stuff, you know,
Speaker 1: is as society becomes a little more comfortable talking about
Speaker 1: sexuality and and and all of the wonderful things that
Speaker 1: are coming to the to the surface. Yes, I'm now
Speaker 1: thinking of our childhood and and and how how scary
Speaker 1: it was that I was fucking running to my mom
Speaker 1: and pointing at my wrist like did I do I
Speaker 1: have it? Hypermasculinity sounds exhausting. Oh my god, being afraid
Speaker 1: of how you like? And I mean we see's across
Speaker 1: a lot of different, like um, smaller groups of people.
Speaker 1: If you break us down that like, if you hold
Speaker 1: yourself in a certain way, suddenly you're perceived as a
Speaker 1: threat or as wrong or you know, as being normal. Yeah,
Speaker 1: totally in America, Joe. I'm sorry, but dude, I just
Speaker 1: know you're good. It just it just sounds, it just
Speaker 1: sounds really exhausting. Did Gosly have to worry how you're
Speaker 1: holding yourself is going to make you a target? And
Speaker 1: then of course, you know, for people who actually were
Speaker 1: a game, we're like, oh yes I am gay. Crap,
Speaker 1: I have all this whole world looking at me and
Speaker 1: attacking me. And uh, it's and like I grew up,
Speaker 1: you know, in rural Illinois, and I was knew I
Speaker 1: was queer pretty early, and so we had like some
Speaker 1: of these aspects. But I think it's it's easier for
Speaker 1: what's easier for me to get vibe in. Some of
Speaker 1: my more outwardly expressive friends put it that way. It's
Speaker 1: I just I can't even imagine. I wanted to ask
Speaker 1: you guys too. You guys were theater kids, and I
Speaker 1: feel like theater kids have such a reputation for constantly
Speaker 1: being partially new or like in a state of undress
Speaker 1: around each other, or at least you know, as I
Speaker 1: was coming up in theater, And was that not the
Speaker 1: same for you guys? Was it not that way? Not
Speaker 1: just for me being just in theater alone? Was was was?
Speaker 1: You know, you get you hear the you hear what
Speaker 1: people say. You know what I mean, when you're an
Speaker 1: actor and you're young and and you're doing theater and
Speaker 1: stuff like that, you know what, you know how people know.
Speaker 1: But she's saying, like where there were there instances were
Speaker 1: because we were changing in backstage and stuff. Where was
Speaker 1: there nudity there? That wasn't really case for me? That
Speaker 1: wasn't a case for me. Well, what the thing was
Speaker 1: that I loved about it was affection. For some reason,
Speaker 1: there was permission when I went to theater kill. I'll
Speaker 1: never forget it, Like there was no taboo in being
Speaker 1: affection with each other. Men hugged men, And it was
Speaker 1: the opposite of public high school, which was so rough,
Speaker 1: and this was an environment of support and love and
Speaker 1: hugging and cuddling, and I just never wanted to go back.
Speaker 1: I would. I would fucking sob when I had to
Speaker 1: come back to public school. Here's here's where like utopia,
Speaker 1: Here's where it gets scary though. So I went to
Speaker 1: a private school that was for just you know, people
Speaker 1: in the entertainment industry, and even at a school where
Speaker 1: it's at the when I was there, at least, I
Speaker 1: can't say it is like that now, but when I
Speaker 1: was there, at least, people were kind of outcasted for
Speaker 1: being gay, you know what I mean, like not thrown
Speaker 1: out of the school or anything like that, but you know,
Speaker 1: all the straight dudes seem to be afraid of the
Speaker 1: gay guy, you know what I mean. Like Performing Arts School,
Speaker 1: Performing Arts School in Manhattan. I'm really surprised because that
Speaker 1: feels like that's where those kids, if they could get in,
Speaker 1: would go. Right. This is the nineties, this is the
Speaker 1: eighties and the nineties, early nineties, and I just remember thinking, Wow,
Speaker 1: this is this is crazy, man, this is you know.
Speaker 1: I remember, I remember, I remember being at that school
Speaker 1: and being one of the only black kids at the
Speaker 1: school as well, you know what I mean, there was
Speaker 1: only like five or six of us in this private school.
Speaker 1: And I only bring all this stuff up because of
Speaker 1: the beginning of the episode, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Turk shows JD The Ring, Yeah, and he goes, oh, wow,
Speaker 1: this was a fucking epic prologue for this joke on
Speaker 1: it's not a joke, but it's but it's I mean,
Speaker 1: the joke is a joke. But yeah, well it's a joke.
Speaker 1: It has it has social commentary in it, but it
Speaker 1: isn't meant to be a joke, right. Turk shows JD
Speaker 1: The Ring and Jad goes, Oh, it's beautiful. But my
Speaker 1: parents would kill me if I married someone black, a
Speaker 1: black guy. Yeah. Yeah. I went to when I was
Speaker 1: when I was fourteen years old, I had had a
Speaker 1: friend moved to Argentina Buenos Aires, suburb of Buenos Aires,
Speaker 1: and my parents are arranged with two other groups of
Speaker 1: parents to let us go down and visit him because
Speaker 1: he missed us, and he was our best friend. One
Speaker 1: of my friends was black, and we went down to
Speaker 1: this suburb in Buenos Aires and this was a neighborhood
Speaker 1: where they had never clearly they had never in real
Speaker 1: life seen a black person. And he walked in. It
Speaker 1: was like the record scratch yea. And they were. It
Speaker 1: wasn't that they were. I don't mean to imply that
Speaker 1: they were that they were disrespectful to him, because they weren't.
Speaker 1: They were just like, holy shit, a bad gude is
Speaker 1: a black guy, right yeah. And he was like, you know,
Speaker 1: and I remember we went to a nightclub and they
Speaker 1: were like, dance, dude, do some of the dancing. He
Speaker 1: couldn't dance. To say, no, I say this story. He
Speaker 1: was the worst fucking dan you no, you know, I
Speaker 1: always laugh at this story. He felt like this onus
Speaker 1: to be like a good dancer, but he sucked. And
Speaker 1: so we started doing these stupid moves like laving his arms,
Speaker 1: and you could see like everyone in the club being like, oh,
Speaker 1: that must be the new move, and they really started
Speaker 1: doing it. It's like Ronald Miller and Can't Buy Me
Speaker 1: Love Man, only he's doing the African Annie to Ristal.
Speaker 1: But if the Ronster's doing it, it must be hip. Yeah, bro. Anyway,
Speaker 1: My point is, my point is, uh, I don't know
Speaker 1: that I have a point, but this episode, really your
Speaker 1: point is is very valid. Donald that the first sentence
Speaker 1: making a joke about marrying a black guy. Uh, touched
Speaker 1: something deep inside you that you dealt with when you
Speaker 1: married the love of your life. And we still live
Speaker 1: in a society where that's the thing, and we hope
Speaker 1: one day it's not. Absolutely Let's take a break. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back after these fine words. I'm still in
Speaker 1: the cold opening. But uh. When Turk shows him to
Speaker 1: Ring and he's like and JD's like, it's beautiful, but
Speaker 1: my parents would lose their shit if I married a
Speaker 1: black man. And then they're like, well, this is what
Speaker 1: I was thinking. I was still gonna make her at dinner,
Speaker 1: and you know, I'd put it in the wine in
Speaker 1: her champagne glass and you said, that's champage. J D goes,
Speaker 1: that's well, that's Champa, Champlain, Champlaine. He's like, well, what
Speaker 1: would you want me to do. He's like, well, this
Speaker 1: is what you do. You get some candles, put it out.
Speaker 1: You're starting to sound like Damon Wayne's in Beverly Hills.
Speaker 1: Take these bananas. Take these bananas, and then you get
Speaker 1: some roses and you put the roses out and and
Speaker 1: and then Turk's like yeah, because the roses make everything
Speaker 1: smell great and stuff. And then springtime medicine and then
Speaker 1: Carla walks in and he goes, what are you guys
Speaker 1: talking about? And we go, no, nothing, nothing, just guy stuff,
Speaker 1: and no, we go bitches and hose. Yeah, no, we
Speaker 1: go just guy stuff. And JD goes, yeah, bitches and
Speaker 1: hose and stuff. By the way, the same joke about masculinity.
Speaker 1: It's actually exactly the same thing we're talking about that
Speaker 1: JD and Turk are talking about, like, no, you'd be
Speaker 1: like a meadow in springtime. And then Carla comes in
Speaker 1: and we're embarrassed. So why then we obviously overcorrect because
Speaker 1: we don't know how to manage our masculinity, our fake masculinity,
Speaker 1: and say bitches and hose, right, But I mean, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's the same thing we're talking about. That being said,
Speaker 1: I thought I did a pretty good pratfall in this episode.
Speaker 1: You did I wrote down. I want you to know
Speaker 1: I wrote what did I write down? Here? I said,
Speaker 1: look at Donald with your dope ass pratfall and you
Speaker 1: did that? You did that, didn't you? I did that myself?
Speaker 1: That was me. Yeah. Now, I don't know why there
Speaker 1: was such a rush for for Turk to get to
Speaker 1: the garbage disposal. I mean, no one had turned it on.
Speaker 1: I don't know why you had to dive over the
Speaker 1: color in a way that might break your back, but
Speaker 1: you did. But because she poured it down the sink.
Speaker 1: I don't think they have a garbage disposal. Why do
Speaker 1: you know only one gbage disposal. It's only one sink,
Speaker 1: and you can I don't know, dude, I don't know.
Speaker 1: There's there's some trivia a bit Trevor Wicky knows do
Speaker 1: Does j D and Turkey have a garbage No, I
Speaker 1: was kidding, that's not on there. I kissed Sarah's booby
Speaker 1: when she's um, when she's doing the burlesque thing. I'm
Speaker 1: just I wanted to just, you know, circle it back
Speaker 1: around because we did talk about her latching onto my
Speaker 1: nipple in the previous podcast, and um, and I just
Speaker 1: wanted you to know that I in this one, I
Speaker 1: returned the favor I did. I returned. I didn't do ariola,
Speaker 1: but I got a little side, little side boob kiss
Speaker 1: in there. Um, you also made a when you did
Speaker 1: your jump. You made a little bit of a JD
Speaker 1: injury noise. You did a little maybe Bill added that,
Speaker 1: I don't know, No, I think it's you. You were
Speaker 1: trying to jokily do a jd hurt himself noise? Was
Speaker 1: it that famous at that point? Had it gotten to
Speaker 1: the point where it was pretty clear that every time
Speaker 1: you fell, we were gonna make the I don't know
Speaker 1: if I don't know if it was ever discussed like that.
Speaker 1: How about um Ralphie. I think you had fun to
Speaker 1: hanging out with a little Ralphie. Little Ralphie cracked me up.
Speaker 1: Cute kid. First of all, he's probably a man now. No,
Speaker 1: it's funny, dude, this is twenty years ago. The kid's
Speaker 1: probably thirty, right, he's probably a grown ass man now,
Speaker 1: and it is known as ralph I wonder if he's
Speaker 1: still acting. That's the great question, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Like for a long time people were like, what is
Speaker 1: the kid from Modern Family Ralphie from Scrubs? No, it's
Speaker 1: not no really, Oh no, well that that kid is
Speaker 1: not nearly as old as Ralphie would be. Let's say
Speaker 1: he's eight, he's twenty eight ish. Those kids are all
Speaker 1: grown on modern pas, but he was of them. I know,
Speaker 1: I know. Oh, I like it when you go First
Speaker 1: of all, when you put your fingers in the cot coffee,
Speaker 1: that was funny, you go, yeah, yeah, yeah, that was funny.
Speaker 1: And then I like when you're like, push the Ducie out.
Speaker 1: Ralphie pushed the ducie out. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, the kiddy,
Speaker 1: it's a diamond engagement ring. How does that not cut
Speaker 1: up fuck up your intestinal digestive system. I imagine your
Speaker 1: digestive system can handle. It's something that's smoothed out. It's
Speaker 1: not like it was jagged. I just feel like it
Speaker 1: would be dangerous to swallow a diamond and in a
Speaker 1: child's fresh, brand new digestive system. Didn't isn't that what happened?
Speaker 1: And Blood Diamond didn't he swallowed that big ass diamond,
Speaker 1: and Blood Diamond with Leonardo DiCaprio, my favorite actor. I
Speaker 1: don't think I ever saw Blood Diamond? Should I watch it? Oh?
Speaker 1: It's a good one. Oh you know what I was
Speaker 1: gonna do for you? Um And because I'm I'm going
Speaker 1: a little quarantine crazy, like you know, don't you guys
Speaker 1: feel this way? You gotta like, all right, new new
Speaker 1: Quarantine chapter. I gotta shake some shit up, right, That's
Speaker 1: that's what the mustache is. I got my xbox. I'm
Speaker 1: about to try U Red Dead Dawn. Yeah yeah, because
Speaker 1: hit Man. You know, I killed everybody, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: try Hitman again, but I think I might try just
Speaker 1: being on the planes. I don't want to hurt anybody. Okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: you're gonna You're gonna hurt some people. I'm just gone
Speaker 1: like murder death killed, dude, likes up. I'm gonna play
Speaker 1: Hitman too, and Red Dead Redemption. But one of my
Speaker 1: new um, you know, I'm just trying some new chapter things.
Speaker 1: I was gonna watch, um, something I've never watched that
Speaker 1: you're very passionate that I watch, and that is the
Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings series I've never watched. Who never
Speaker 1: did All three of them, all the listeners, All three
Speaker 1: of them look like they're having a heart attack. All
Speaker 1: three of them look like Fred Sandford and Sandford and
Speaker 1: somebody's I'm coming. I have so many questions, Okay, are
Speaker 1: you doing the extended directors cuts or look, here's the thing,
Speaker 1: here's the thing. What do y'all recommend? How do how
Speaker 1: do I do about like this? It's gonna be like
Speaker 1: not in ten hours of my life? Right? All right, guys,
Speaker 1: this is what I've learned about. It's not necessarily the
Speaker 1: action that he gets stoked about if the story doesn't
Speaker 1: move he gets very very bored. So it's not it's
Speaker 1: not like he needs a bunch of action and fighting
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. He just wants the fucking story
Speaker 1: to move along. Don't take two. Here's what I have
Speaker 1: no interest in, and this is controversial for most of
Speaker 1: the country. I like character development. I like dialogue, right,
Speaker 1: I like set pieces and beautiful sets and cool cinematography.
Speaker 1: I get very bored when two supernatural beings are fighting. Okay,
Speaker 1: the ultimate, the ultimate example from for this condition I
Speaker 1: have is Transformers movies. Man, let me just articulate former movie.
Speaker 1: Let me just articulate my point. Except for trying form
Speaker 1: of the movie. The cartoon watched to our hunks of
Speaker 1: metal fighting and like crashing taxi cabs, I could give
Speaker 1: zero fus. Yeah, dude, those come on, man, those movies suck.
Speaker 1: Come on all right. But I love story, and I
Speaker 1: know Lord of the Rings has great actors, and I
Speaker 1: love cinematography. I know it's got that the extended cut. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you should definitely go for the extended cut then, because
Speaker 1: there are certain like bore mere story kind of gets
Speaker 1: jumped over in part two. If you don't have the extension. Well,
Speaker 1: you're gritting your teeth. You're so excited. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: don't even I watched like every year for many years
Speaker 1: love Lord of the Rings of it's on TNT. Everything stops.
Speaker 1: You're watching Lord of the Rings to every week we
Speaker 1: buy the new one. Should I try some jazz lettuce
Speaker 1: with it? Uh? It couldn't hurt because then you're smoking
Speaker 1: with Gandolf and that's always fun, right, smoke in the
Speaker 1: first movie. Okay, good, whenever they have jazz lettuce, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have some. They have some. It's it's the finest
Speaker 1: weed in the shire. All right. Let's get back to
Speaker 1: this Ralphie. So Ralphie, wasn't there a thing? Donald? I
Speaker 1: remember in the Blooper reel around nine to eleven when
Speaker 1: Ralphie's dag drags him out that the kid nailed the door.
Speaker 1: Oh I don't know. I feel like I remember that
Speaker 1: if you're if you're so inclined, you could go look
Speaker 1: at the season to Blooper reel. But I think that
Speaker 1: that moment when Ralphie's dad is aggressively pulling him out
Speaker 1: of the lobby, I think the kid lost his pounds
Speaker 1: and nailed the door. He was fine, not laughing at
Speaker 1: a hurt child, but it did look like it hurt.
Speaker 1: We probably couldn't won America's Funniest Home Videos. Oh man,
Speaker 1: I would have loved that one hundred thousand dollars in
Speaker 1: my pocket. Nine fifty five. When Cox goes CHET call,
Speaker 1: it will be G Y N and then prep the
Speaker 1: knick and then it cuts to me and I just
Speaker 1: keep writing in a chart like what the fuck am
Speaker 1: I doing? Like this woman's about to fucking die? Here's what,
Speaker 1: Here's what I don't understand. Clearly what happened was that
Speaker 1: the dad had another line to me so I couldn't leave.
Speaker 1: But like I really got annoyed that Cox is like
Speaker 1: called prep the knick? You calling all B G I N.
Speaker 1: And then you cut to me, and I'm I just
Speaker 1: continue proceed to write in a chart, like what am
Speaker 1: I writing in a chart? I have the only problem
Speaker 1: I had? What it is? Why are they at this hospital? Uh?
Speaker 1: And Cox is their doctor. Shouldn't she have had a
Speaker 1: I think the doctor I think always go to no
Speaker 1: that they've come into a hospital, local hospital with an emergency.
Speaker 1: They're having a baby problem. But you would still call
Speaker 1: your you would still call your I don't know. I
Speaker 1: mean some of that, some of that's a little some
Speaker 1: of that's a little lax here, dude. Remember in early episodes,
Speaker 1: Todd was gonna do a fucking woman's breast augmentation right right,
Speaker 1: look like a classic surgeon. Some of that were some
Speaker 1: of the some of the rules of that are a
Speaker 1: little bit thrown out, even though the AMA says were
Speaker 1: the most accurate. I did. I did like the fact
Speaker 1: that Cox and JD were looking at themselves in this
Speaker 1: married couple that was about to have a baby. I
Speaker 1: thought that was very funny. Baby who was about to
Speaker 1: deliver his Cox and yeah, that kid was That kid
Speaker 1: was clearly cast to be JD esque, right, I agree? Now, yes, Um,
Speaker 1: what's the matter dude, my back, I've never seen this.
Speaker 1: Maybe why didn't you get why didn't you get a
Speaker 1: nice chair for yourself? Because I'd have to bring it
Speaker 1: all the way up to the closet. This is forty
Speaker 1: six guys. I wish you could see him. I wish
Speaker 1: you could see him. He's lying down, look like I
Speaker 1: look like Jaba Hut. I know, I know, yes, he
Speaker 1: looks like Java Hut. Yeah, you need you need like
Speaker 1: you need like you need a little chained land next
Speaker 1: to you. I need Selacious Crumb and then I need
Speaker 1: a chained Uh. Is that the guy with the snake
Speaker 1: thing around his neck? No, that's that's a bid for tuna.
Speaker 1: I need somebody, my god, you know everybody's names. That's
Speaker 1: the parrot. That's Salacious Crumb. Salacious Crumb. No, but I

Speaker 1: like a side side piece henchman. No, that's his freaking Uh,

Speaker 1: not the pet. Salacious Crumb is the pet. He's more like, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, he's the dude. The job is assistant. That's
Speaker 1: who he is. That's who who Slicius Crumb would be. Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean he's like he's he's like his um um
Speaker 1: what was the name of Puffy's guy with the umbrella,
Speaker 1: right like Fawnsworth Bentley whatever? Bentley? Is he doing that
Speaker 1: for other people? Now? No? Man, you know just the same. Listen, man,
Speaker 1: people come to Hollywood, or people become famous Farnsworth Bentley
Speaker 1: is him and Casey Cobb are the two most famous
Speaker 1: assistants in the history of being assistants. And Fawnsworth went
Speaker 1: on to I mean he stole a spotlight from Puff
Speaker 1: when he was around, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 1: what was so special about Farnsworth Bentley? I just remember
Speaker 1: the end he had to hold Puffy's umbrella. So much charisma.
Speaker 1: That man has so much charisma. So are you friends
Speaker 1: with him? I've run into him a couple of times.
Speaker 1: I wonder what he does though for a living these days.
Speaker 1: I don't know. He's a musician apparently. I think he's
Speaker 1: doing like studio stuff behind scenes. Well we should place
Speaker 1: him of Farnsworth Bentley's music on the p I was thinking, Joel,
Speaker 1: by the way, speaking about the music conundrum that we're facing,
Speaker 1: I was thinking, um, two things. One, I could send
Speaker 1: you a list of like twenty songs and then you
Speaker 1: could go through. iHeart to go through the people and say, hey,
Speaker 1: do the guys have the permission to play these songs?
Speaker 1: And I won't pick like you know the Stones or
Speaker 1: like Drake. I'll pick like you know, smaller acts. Yeah,
Speaker 1: speaking of music, by the way, there's been a lot
Speaker 1: of demand from my fire Workout playlist, which I have
Speaker 1: now published on Spotify. Donald Nice. Now, I've never made
Speaker 1: a playlist public on Spotify, but today during my downtime,
Speaker 1: I figured out how to do it. And if you're
Speaker 1: listening since there's been clamoring, literal clamoring for my fire
Speaker 1: Workout playlist, now, don't listen to this if you're looking
Speaker 1: for what Donald likes to and you want to hear Wu,
Speaker 1: Tang and Drake and like, Okay, this is if you
Speaker 1: want to hear some girl pop. Um. It's under on Spotify.
Speaker 1: It's under Zach Braff's workout playlist, and I'm very excited

Speaker 1: You're trying to take my lane. I had this ship
Speaker 1: first girl. No angrier than By the way, Alicia's Silverstone
Speaker 1: texted me and Donald because she listened to the podcast
Speaker 1: where we talking, So people, this could happen. This might happen.
Speaker 1: It's a slow play. You know, when you're courting someone
Speaker 1: and it's a slow play. You can't be too come
Speaker 1: on so strong. She called us very silly. She said
Speaker 1: I was wrong. She was sixteen when she did she
Speaker 1: said video. She said that she was sixteen when she
Speaker 1: did her first Arrowsmith video. By the way, so she
Speaker 1: also said she hasn't recall you being obsessed with her.
Speaker 1: She said you never met once that's you're obsessed. I
Speaker 1: think I've told her in working with her that I
Speaker 1: had a huge crush on her. Okay, should bringing the

Speaker 1: think question number one? And sorry Zach, but this is
Speaker 1: where Donald. You know from this podcast, I heard you
Speaker 1: have like eighty five kids? What do I do? He
Speaker 1: does he's ninety seven children, not eighty five, not eighty five?
Speaker 1: Come on, man, the thing is um shoot, well, you know,
Speaker 1: well you were Donald, You always say that just first
Speaker 1: year you gotta be very supportive. There's the woman has
Speaker 1: to run the show, right, Well, there's not much you
Speaker 1: can do the first year. I'm gonna be one hundred
Speaker 1: percent honest, right, now, you can't do much for her
Speaker 1: other than support, and you need to be one hundred
Speaker 1: percent supportive, and you know have make dinners back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's right, make dinners feet, rubbing back, rubber feet, you know.
Speaker 1: Uh say you look beautiful darling all the time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and uh, you're a very cute couple of it. That's
Speaker 1: going to be an adorable child. Yeah, thanks, thank you.
Speaker 1: I'm still completely blown away. No, I know, I know
Speaker 1: a little something I knew. Nobody else can see it,
Speaker 1: but maybe you guys can describe it. I know Donald
Speaker 1: has been having a rough time with his Instagram followers, right,
Speaker 1: and so um, I made an account the other day. Nice,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, a fan. I love it. Oh god,
Speaker 1: an Instagram. It's a onesie, you guys, and it says
Speaker 1: youngest Instagram follower. If this doesn't give me followers, I
Speaker 1: don't know what will hope. By the way, these people
Speaker 1: like twelve billion at one point, but I can give
Speaker 1: you the youngest one. And I appreciate that that is adorable.
Speaker 1: So you guys seem, just from looking around your background
Speaker 1: that you're very into Batman made uh kind of Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm definitely a Batman fan, but this is just a
Speaker 1: weird corner of my office. Uh, I'm all over Marvel
Speaker 1: Ghostbusters whatever, Marvel DC Ghostbusters star. Who's your favorite who?
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, don't go there please, who is
Speaker 1: your just who's your favorite Batman? Who ever played him
Speaker 1: in a film? Oh, that's a really good question for me.
Speaker 1: No one didn't ask you specific Are we talking specifically
Speaker 1: live action? Yes, specifically live action and not Adam West?
Speaker 1: Just films. And because Conroy is dope, you're right about that?
Speaker 1: Is that who you're gonna Conro is where it was going.
Speaker 1: I would have gone with Adam West, but we're talking
Speaker 1: about just feature films. So I think I'm gonna have
Speaker 1: to do something that everyone's gonna disagree with. But Ben Affleck,
Speaker 1: mainly because I really enjoyed how they they did the
Speaker 1: combat and got some you know, comic accurate scenes like
Speaker 1: Dark Knight Return stuff. Yeah, you know, I say, I say, uh,
Speaker 1: I say, Affleck is one of the better Batman's my
Speaker 1: favorite batman for me? Keaton? Yeah, Keaton's a good one.
Speaker 1: And it's not I take that back. It's not that
Speaker 1: he's a good batman. He was the best Bruce Wayne
Speaker 1: out of here. Absolutely I'll definitely give you that, but
Speaker 1: I can't get past the fact at the beginning of
Speaker 1: those movies, the first one is a bunch of random
Speaker 1: purse robbers on the top of skyscrapers for some reason.
Speaker 1: Why why are they understand? And Batman just shows up,
Speaker 1: lifts his cave, and slowly walks forward until he gets shot. Right,
Speaker 1: it's weird. Right, that's now, you guys are why are
Speaker 1: you guys? You're both skipping like the the artiste of
Speaker 1: our time, Chris Nolan. Well, hey, Christian bat was a
Speaker 1: good Batman, great Batman. I do that those are more
Speaker 1: like villain movies. Yeah, because Batman's not the star of
Speaker 1: those movies. It's who he fights in those movies. That's exactly.
Speaker 1: And I could you know my favorite line. This is
Speaker 1: what I couldn't get past racial RACI he has all
Speaker 1: that money and he can't buy a voice changer. What
Speaker 1: it's because? Oh, my favorite line from my favorite line, Zach,
Speaker 1: what's your favorite line? My favorite line is what didn't
Speaker 1: make the film. It was behind the scenes moment. Do
Speaker 1: you want me to tear down your lights? That's not Batman,
Speaker 1: that's Terminator. But no, it wasn't that was terminator. I
Speaker 1: was Christian Bale Terminator. He's in one of the Terminators.
Speaker 1: He plays John Connor and one of the terminators. Talking
Speaker 1: Christian Bal, you are talking about two movies with fucked
Speaker 1: up timelines. Wait. Timelines of these movies, wait, man, are
Speaker 1: like so fucked When Christian Bale screamed at the cinematographer
Speaker 1: that wasn't Batman, No, it was a terminator. He was
Speaker 1: pissed off because he's doing a scene with the terminator
Speaker 1: at the time, right, and the the DP kept changing
Speaker 1: his lights in his eyeline and he screamed output you know,
Speaker 1: you know. The DP was like, dude, we're making a terminator.
Speaker 1: I know. Okay, where where do you live? By the way,
Speaker 1: So I'm in Massachusetts. We're just outside of Boston. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh okay, this is so exciting. I'm I are you?
Speaker 1: Are you? Is your mind blown that you're having a child?
Speaker 1: How well? How far along are we are? We? I'm
Speaker 1: assuming not very I got the kids from the other rum. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's pretty early. It's about five weeks. Actually. When I
Speaker 1: was going with back and forth with Joel, she originally
Speaker 1: we're going to do this a little earlier, and she
Speaker 1: was like can we postpone and know it's like, Actually,
Speaker 1: I started freaking out. I was going way too public,
Speaker 1: way too early. Yeah, I thought most people wait like
Speaker 1: three months. I mean, but maybe your friends don't listen
Speaker 1: to the so they won't know. They won't know. We
Speaker 1: haven't so I'm gonna get something. We have to talk
Speaker 1: to you before. Okay, I would definitely tell your your
Speaker 1: friends that listen to the podcast. Yeah, in fact, are
Speaker 1: you recording this? I hop you are. I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll get you. If you're not, we'll get you a
Speaker 1: copy or we'll try. Uh. Yeah, So I mean, I
Speaker 1: am very excited. It has been obviously a crazy, terrible
Speaker 1: year for everyone. Uh personally, that has been a really
Speaker 1: rough year for me. Right the day that the the
Speaker 1: whole state shut down in the country pretty much shut down,
Speaker 1: was the day my mom passed away. So it's been
Speaker 1: kind of rough. But uh, but this is a nice,
Speaker 1: good new story for my family. So I'm really excited. Uh.
Speaker 1: In fact, I made my wife cry right before we
Speaker 1: got on here because when she told me we were
Speaker 1: getting on I looked at the episode that just dropped
Speaker 1: today and I did the math, and I was like,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, is this my philosophy because that she
Speaker 1: just happened to be something I was watching right before
Speaker 1: my mom passed, And so the whole musical lumber at
Speaker 1: the end has been stuck in my mind for the
Speaker 1: last six months or four months, or however long it's been. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I cried like a baby in this episode for the
Speaker 1: first time. You know, I've this is one episode I remembered.
Speaker 1: I do remember filming this episode, and I remembered. I remembered,
Speaker 1: I remembered. I've watched this episode a couple of times,
Speaker 1: but this was the first time that I, you know,
Speaker 1: because of everything that we're dealing with right now, I
Speaker 1: cried like a baby. Oh my god, it's so powerful. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I actually think Chris has been a long time fan
Speaker 1: and he's brought me along for the ride. And I
Speaker 1: believe it was this episode that when I first started watching,
Speaker 1: I had to stop for a little bit because it
Speaker 1: just gutted me. Well, um, I was thinking we should
Speaker 1: play waiting for my real life to begin by Colin
Speaker 1: hay to end this episode that the podcast isn't That
Speaker 1: idea would be awesome because Colin Hayes is a friend
Speaker 1: of us and a friend of the show, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure he wouldn't mind at all if we if we
Speaker 1: went when we do wrap this one up, to go
Speaker 1: into it, because I mean, if you haven't heard his
Speaker 1: rendition of the song, you know, in this episode we've
Speaker 1: turned into a it's beautifully arranged but but we've turned
Speaker 1: into a bit of a musical number. But it's it's
Speaker 1: a it's a song with Colin hay Things alone on
Speaker 1: the guitar, and it's a it's a really special song.
Speaker 1: You guys, turn to be into a Colin Hey fan.
Speaker 1: Um after my overkill, I went into deep dive on
Speaker 1: his music. You know, if he ever comes by the
Speaker 1: way Hill, he when when the world opens back up
Speaker 1: and he tours, I mean, you're gonna have a baby
Speaker 1: now him a handsful. But let's say somebody wants to
Speaker 1: baby sit for you guys. You gotta go see him live.
Speaker 1: He's he's always plays small venues and it's just usually
Speaker 1: just him and a guitar, and he's hilarious, so he'll
Speaker 1: do he'll he'll just be you know, like most musicians,
Speaker 1: if you go see them in like a small venue,
Speaker 1: they tell a little anecdote and then they're strumming their
Speaker 1: guitar and then they go into the song. This guy
Speaker 1: will do like stand up like hilarious jokes as he's
Speaker 1: just sitting there strumming, and then he'll go into a
Speaker 1: song and it's It's really great wherever you are and
Speaker 1: you're listening to this, if keep an eye out for
Speaker 1: whenever Colin hay comes to town, because I promise you
Speaker 1: it's a great show. Do you have a favorite Colin
Speaker 1: Hayes song? Factum, yes, um, oh gosh, I have a couple,
Speaker 1: but um, I just don't think I'll get over over you.
Speaker 1: It's probably my favorite. I drink black coffee every morning.
Speaker 1: Comes from a place that's far away, far away. When
Speaker 1: I'm done, I feel like talking without you please less
Speaker 1: to say. That's like the worst breakup song. It's a
Speaker 1: great breakup song because you're like it says so many
Speaker 1: things you want to say to the person, like I
Speaker 1: miss you, but do you miss me? And I like
Speaker 1: when he goes don't want you to think, don't don't
Speaker 1: want you to think. I don't get asked to dinner
Speaker 1: because I'm here to say that. I sometimes do boom
Speaker 1: get a little do if I live till I can
Speaker 1: no longer climb my stairs. I just just don't think,
Speaker 1: Oliver get over you. There you got we serenaded your
Speaker 1: new baby. I love that one. You know. My favorite
Speaker 1: line that song is don't want you thinking I'm unhappy?
Speaker 1: What is closer to the truth? And then he says
Speaker 1: if till I was a hundred and I just don't think,
Speaker 1: Caliver get over you? We play that one? Or should
Speaker 1: we play that one or the one in the episode?
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear that episode. Yeah, because that one,
Speaker 1: that one's too melancholic. Yeah, I mean they're both melancholic,
Speaker 1: but it's been a melancholic episode, So it's okay except
Speaker 1: for birth and new beginnings and young You guys should
Speaker 1: name the baby Simba. I think, okay, it's exciting. It's
Speaker 1: the Lion King reference, I know, but I was I
Speaker 1: was thinking more like Donald or how funny would be
Speaker 1: this If this this could this couple had a baby
Speaker 1: named the day Shoe, I'd love it be the best
Speaker 1: day of my life's Aerian name. All Right, guys, guys,
Speaker 1: we've gone we've we've gone very long. But um, but
Speaker 1: do you have a question for us might be beyond baby?
Speaker 1: We both kind of set up a question, do you
Speaker 1: want to go first or UM? I guess my question
Speaker 1: for you guys is, I mean, given the state of
Speaker 1: the world right now, um, and the fact that this
Speaker 1: is based off of somebody who's working the front lines. UM.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this would be for you or
Speaker 1: the UM, but UM, how do you guys think your
Speaker 1: characters would have dealt with COVID? Oh, they would have
Speaker 1: jumped on it. I think Turk, JD, Carla Elliott, doctor Cox,
Speaker 1: even Kelso, I think they would have jumped on this.
Speaker 1: I think I think, uh, like all of the you know,
Speaker 1: first responders out there right now who are risking their
Speaker 1: lives and everything like that, I think JD and the
Speaker 1: and the gang would have done the exact same thing.
Speaker 1: I think this is something that they would have said,
Speaker 1: you know, let's answer the call. The hospital is going
Speaker 1: to answer this call. Sacred Heart's going to answer the call.
Speaker 1: Let's let's make it happen. Yeah, I mean, don't forget.
Speaker 1: First and foremost, amidst all the comedy, it was clear
Speaker 1: they were all really good doctors. So I think that, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, that was important to the writers, and that
Speaker 1: was important to JD, who was the inspiration John Dorris,
Speaker 1: who was the inspiration for my character JD. So I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that they would. They would be all over it.
Speaker 1: You know, there was an episode where we quarantine do
Speaker 1: you remember with m with Tara Reid and she made
Speaker 1: quarantine ees y. We were all a lot to the ICU. Somehow,
Speaker 1: I feel like the Janitor would be convinced trying to
Speaker 1: convince you you have COVID, Yes, yes, Janitor would. The
Speaker 1: Janitor would definitely be up to his usual hijinks like
Speaker 1: he was in this episode. He had a pretty small
Speaker 1: part in this one, although I got ink all over
Speaker 1: his uh he shirt because he probably pin didn't match.
Speaker 1: Though the pin didn't match, you get him with sharpie
Speaker 1: and then at the end he has a regular ring pin.
Speaker 1: Really yeah, yeah, yeah, okay scrubs Wicky. He probably knows
Speaker 1: it's not on scrubs WICKI. And we don't want to
Speaker 1: get him all rilled up over something so small. We
Speaker 1: can only trevor him out of the fucking no, don't
Speaker 1: don't say his name three times where he had materializes,
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, it's like he doesn't want to do it.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to ask him anything and now he's
Speaker 1: asking Trevor Wicky things. That's true, that's true. We gotta stop.
Speaker 1: I get anxious. I get anxious. I get anxious when
Speaker 1: we talk about calling him. I know it's the third
Speaker 1: time he's gonna show up. He's here, he's here, he's
Speaker 1: in house, Trevor, get out, all right. Do you get
Speaker 1: another question? Yeah, this one's kind of a more silly question.
Speaker 1: But I remember when you guys had the call turk line,
Speaker 1: and I know it was a real number. Did you
Speaker 1: guys ever mess with any fans that called him? It
Speaker 1: rang NonStop. Here's the thing about what was so crazy
Speaker 1: about the call turk phone? So Bill, I guess you know,
Speaker 1: I think it started with having a pet peeve. If
Speaker 1: you ever noticed in movies it's always five five five,
Speaker 1: just you know that it has to be People don't
Speaker 1: want to deal with a real number. It has to
Speaker 1: be a fake number. And so Bill said, oh, let's
Speaker 1: just make it. Let's just get the number. So it
Speaker 1: was a cell phone, and it would sit in the
Speaker 1: production office, and the production office was the center of
Speaker 1: all of our dressing rooms, because you picture it, it's
Speaker 1: a hospital. All of our dressing rooms or hospital rooms
Speaker 1: and what would be like the nurses station in the
Speaker 1: middle of the ward was where a lot of the
Speaker 1: production people would sit and the phone would just be
Speaker 1: there and if it wasn't on silent, it would ring NonStop,
Speaker 1: like NonStop. And sometimes when you're just sitting around board,
Speaker 1: people would just pick it up and we end up
Speaker 1: getting a map and with pins and we would because
Speaker 1: people would call them all over the world and by
Speaker 1: the time we were over it, I mean, the thing
Speaker 1: was just covered. The map was covered and pins from
Speaker 1: people from all over the world that would just call.
Speaker 1: And so to answer your question, yeah, we would just
Speaker 1: talk to people. We'd and then they'd be like, Zach,
Speaker 1: we need you on set. I mean I gotta go.
Speaker 1: Here's Donald And we just put Donald on like we had.
Speaker 1: We would just hand around and people were so interested.
Speaker 1: He'd be talk to a pa. Donald be like I
Speaker 1: had to go to here talk to one of our
Speaker 1: PA's and like and like they would just like to
Speaker 1: talk to anybody related to the show. Do you remember that?
Speaker 1: Which sucked would be sometimes you'd be like, hello, you
Speaker 1: call Turk and they'd be like, Hey, is this real,
Speaker 1: it's real? It's who's this? It's it's it's uh, Donald Fason,
Speaker 1: I play Turk is Jad around? No, no, no, Jay,
Speaker 1: Zach's not around, he's on set right now. Okay, well
Speaker 1: it is doctor Cox around and t we called Turk No.
Speaker 1: It was fun and then and then sometimes we would
Speaker 1: turn it off because it was like, okay, it was
Speaker 1: just ringing NonStop, and then it would sit there like
Speaker 1: lying dormant, and then someone would turn it on and
Speaker 1: they would just start right up again because of because
Speaker 1: the show is globally popular. At any time, if he
Speaker 1: turns it on, it would be ringing right crazy. It was.
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened to that number. Was you
Speaker 1: try it? What was it? One hundred clown c al
Speaker 1: like California Turk? Yeah, yeah, or you guys try it now.
Speaker 1: I don't have the phones, so you're not going to
Speaker 1: reach me, but for all I know, one of our
Speaker 1: PA's kept. Yeah. All right, we gotta go because we've
Speaker 1: gone so long. But congratulations. You guys were very excited
Speaker 1: for you. I have a question for you guys before
Speaker 1: you leave. Absolutely, Zach and I were talking about this.
Speaker 1: We know that the episode. We talk about the episodes
Speaker 1: and everything like that, and sometimes there's episodes of Fake
Speaker 1: Doctor's Real Friends where we talk about the episode just
Speaker 1: a little bit and we digress. How do you guys
Speaker 1: feel about that? Ads? Listeners to our our show. So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you. I've seen every episode
Speaker 1: probably ten fifteen times. I don't need to have you
Speaker 1: guys tell me what's on the episode. I've seen it.
Speaker 1: I enjoy listening to you guys just talk, and when
Speaker 1: you get to some of the behind the scenes stuff,
Speaker 1: that's cool. But it's also just fun listen to you
Speaker 1: guys talk. Yeah, I love you guys have the kind
Speaker 1: of friendship that I think we have with our friends.
Speaker 1: And it's just like kind of hanging out with a
Speaker 1: couple of friends and I'm like, yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: how we're talking about bubble gum, but I'm loving it. Like, yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I think that's what we want to I think that's
Speaker 1: what we have a few naysayers, and Donald and I
Speaker 1: are the kind of people. First of all, I gotta
Speaker 1: get off Twitter because it's fun of this quarantine has
Speaker 1: made me read this shit too much. And most people
Speaker 1: are nice, don't get me wrong, but that's not what
Speaker 1: we do. When you're in the public eye and people
Speaker 1: write shit at you. You see the nice things and
Speaker 1: you thank you, thank you, and then someone writes something
Speaker 1: and it just sticks in your head. And then so
Speaker 1: some of a couple of Donald and I both had
Speaker 1: people like you might want to talk about the episode more,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, this is really going three thousand
Speaker 1: times better than we ever thought it was going to,
Speaker 1: and more people are listening than we ever thought we're
Speaker 1: going through. Should we start fucking up what's working? Because
Speaker 1: we want to. We want to go through the episode
Speaker 1: and point out what we thought was funny. But unlike
Speaker 1: the other people that do this, I think the office
Speaker 1: ladies who are killing it obviously, but they go a
Speaker 1: little bit more meticulously through the episode. I don't think
Speaker 1: that would interest Dialinize so much. I think we'd probably
Speaker 1: get bored doing that. Yeah, and if you're a real fan,
Speaker 1: you know what's happening, so like, just enjoy the ride. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Should I start with these Marvel movies, the ones I
Speaker 1: haven't seen? Or should I start with Lord of the Rings?
Speaker 1: Because I was going to start I've never seen a
Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings film, and these guys were saying
Speaker 1: I should start there. Now, Okay, go Marvel. My dad's
Speaker 1: a huge Lord of the Rings fan, and they are
Speaker 1: great movies. I enjoyed them. But oh, Mark, well, we're
Speaker 1: definitely a Marvel fan. Knowing him, knowing okay, this is
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna say, guys. Knowing him, I would say,
Speaker 1: go Lord of the Rings because for him watching fights
Speaker 1: like he in Game or I take that back Infinity War,
Speaker 1: he'll be bored because there's nothing but fighting the whole movie.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. I get more invested when
Speaker 1: there's really good character development, and then I'm invested and
Speaker 1: I go like, like I mean, just to take a
Speaker 1: movie like Rocky, It's like, I'm so invested in these
Speaker 1: human beings. I could watch them fight. But when it's
Speaker 1: like get back here, Decepticon, I don't give a fuck. Right,
Speaker 1: So look, here's the thing. Here's the thing about the
Speaker 1: Marvel movies that I'm sure you guys will agree with
Speaker 1: me on m Daniel and Joel as well. There's so
Speaker 1: many of them that they've developed these characters so well
Speaker 1: that by the time you get to Infinity War and
Speaker 1: in Game, you're so invested, unlike unlike Lord of the Rings,
Speaker 1: where they developed the characters right in front of you
Speaker 1: as you are. Okay, go ahead, Dannel to say something,
Speaker 1: go ahead, nothing. I just think I just think there
Speaker 1: is there are most moments in both movies, yes, but
Speaker 1: there is one emotional moment. I would say three. But
Speaker 1: near the end of Return of the King, there's one
Speaker 1: emotional moment that strikes me harder than any Marvel movie ever.
Speaker 1: Will I'm just gonna throw that out there. Is that
Speaker 1: when she goes and don't spoiler, bro what don't spoiler?
Speaker 1: I can, I can say the line without its spoiling. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna saying this movie spoil anything. The Ring I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say, You're gonna get to a point where some
Speaker 1: character says, I am the Lord of the rings. It
Speaker 1: is I the Lord of the rings, and everyone goes no.
Speaker 1: You get to a point the movie where someone says
Speaker 1: you bow to no man. My gentle moment explodes with
Speaker 1: team Now. I don't know. I don't need to watch it.
Speaker 1: I mean, the thing is, you're you're not even gonna
Speaker 1: know when it's coming. You won't even know, and then
Speaker 1: it'll happen and you're just gonna know what. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: know when you know when you know when I'm gonna cry.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cry when when when someone goes for I
Speaker 1: am the lord of the rings. We gotta go. This
Speaker 1: shows four hours offly not like dropping. Just watching the
Speaker 1: last episode of Breaking Mad. I know, listen, say what
Speaker 1: you want to say. That's a good fucking episode. I
Speaker 1: can't even talk about it. All right, you guys, you're
Speaker 1: so fun. I imagine if we lived in the same
Speaker 1: city and the Apocalypse wasn't happening, we'd all be friends.
Speaker 1: But um, you seem like very nice people. Congratulations on

Speaker 1: give us a follow up. Let you well know when
Speaker 1: send us a picture when when you when you have
Speaker 1: the baby. Okay, definitely I have to put it in
Speaker 1: that one day. And thank you for continually just changing
Speaker 1: my life with things. We got more on the way
Speaker 1: for you. Just you wait, we got more on them
Speaker 1: for you. Well, man, I can't wait for you to

Speaker 1: Thank you, guys, Thank you. Go wow. I lightly like
Speaker 1: I told you, man, I told you it's not you
Speaker 1: fucked the whole thing up though, dude, I really get up,
Speaker 1: really you'd be the worst game show host ever. I
Speaker 1: am a game show host. Fuck you. Well, that one
Speaker 1: probably sucks because you didn't tease anything. You got to
Speaker 1: tease it out, don't. You don't sure you want to
Speaker 1: do community service? You got a kid on the way.
Speaker 1: I was you have to do some edging. I thought
Speaker 1: it was great. I thought it was a great I
Speaker 1: thought it was a great interview. I thought they did great.
Speaker 1: I thought they were genuinely snow. It ended up being great.
Speaker 1: Just you. You got excited because you wanted to be
Speaker 1: the one to tell him and yeah, but I would
Speaker 1: have played it out a little bit. So it's one day. Whatever. Anyway,
Speaker 1: let's get back to the episode. Yeah, we've gone, so
Speaker 1: we've done one thirty eight. But let's just continue a
Speaker 1: little okay, So let's there was one thing that I
Speaker 1: noticed that happened in this episode that I thought was
Speaker 1: very funny, and that was the candid camera gag. Yeah,
Speaker 1: why is the guy under the bed? That's so funny. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's ridiculous, right because you're not supposed to see what
Speaker 1: the camera is. Yeah, but he's not getting any shot
Speaker 1: from under the bed. How about when you not when
Speaker 1: you when you go and uh, well, first of all,
Speaker 1: I laughed out loud. When when when when Ted Lawyer goes,
Speaker 1: I feel like I'd be more productive if my phone
Speaker 1: dialed out. Sammy had some great lines on this, or
Speaker 1: when he goes, where did she get that idea? And
Speaker 1: sam goes, He goes, Ted, what are you trying to do?
Speaker 1: He's just I'm trying to whistle. You don't think that
Speaker 1: it was me? Or then use him the kiss at
Speaker 1: the end and he catches it. Yeah, it turns around
Speaker 1: and puts in his pocket to save it. When um,
Speaker 1: when uh the when you bang on the cab to
Speaker 1: catch Judy, the lady thought you were trying to rob her.
Speaker 1: Just take it. She puts the freaking person out the window.
Speaker 1: Just take it. That was funny. How about Judy telling
Speaker 1: you she needs to think and Carla telling you she
Speaker 1: needs to think. That's the most fucked up answer you
Speaker 1: can ever get to a wedding proposal. I know, And
Speaker 1: yet I think by the time most people propose, I
Speaker 1: mean I would think by the time I dropped the question,
Speaker 1: I'd be ninety nine point nine nine nine sure I'm
Speaker 1: gonna get a yes. I'm not gonna not leave in
Speaker 1: any wiggle room. Well, I think a lot of people
Speaker 1: do think they're gonna get the yes, and when when
Speaker 1: they get the know, it's you know what sucks is that,
Speaker 1: you know, when you get the no and they keep
Speaker 1: the ring, that happens. No, you know people keep an
Speaker 1: engagement ring and then don't get married. That's fucked up. Yeah, time,
Speaker 1: it happens all the time. You got to give the
Speaker 1: ring back, lady. We can't be engaged in the more. Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need that ring, ladies. They don't notice was
Speaker 1: a gift ladies, and Dan, please get them. You know,
Speaker 1: how do you feel about it? Here we go. We
Speaker 1: got a lady on the line, right wall. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: let's hear Joelle's two cents. If someone's giving me jewelry,
Speaker 1: I'm keeping it. Like I don't understand. I don't believe
Speaker 1: in curse. Like you have to really intentionally put a
Speaker 1: curse on a ring for me to be like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know, Joe. Well, if someone gave you an
Speaker 1: engagement ring and you turn them down, you'd keep the ring.
Speaker 1: How close are we? Stuff? That's up? Dan, Dan, Dan?
Speaker 1: Prepare the more? You know, sound effects because I have
Speaker 1: a public service announcement. Here we go. Guys, if a
Speaker 1: perspective suitor gives you an engagement ring and you turn
Speaker 1: them down, give them back the fucking ring. Speaking of
Speaker 1: you singing, you have a beautiful voice. At the end
Speaker 1: of this episode, Yeah, we sing a Colin Hey song
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. I know, I forgot
Speaker 1: that it was everybody At first, I thought I knew
Speaker 1: that she sang Jill Tracy. That's Tim Hoebert's wife, right, Yes, Donald,
Speaker 1: that is Jill Tracy playing Elaine. And she is one
Speaker 1: of our writer's very talented wives. He is an actress
Speaker 1: and a singer, and she did such a little bit
Speaker 1: of trivia for you. Jill Tracy is the name of
Speaker 1: who on the show I don't know. Well, if you
Speaker 1: know the show Scrubs, you'll know that that's the name
Speaker 1: of Nicole Sullivan's characters and seasons one, three, and five. Wow. Also,
Speaker 1: Kit Pongetti, who plays doctor Mitchell, the doctor who's beside
Speaker 1: Kelso in the singing number, went on to play Lady
Speaker 1: in season seven and eight. Yeah, goes on to marry
Speaker 1: the janitor. Yes, and the death has an appearance here.
Speaker 1: Randa Winston and he kills Ernie. The old man, older
Speaker 1: doctor that he kills is one of our head stunt guys,
Speaker 1: stunt coordinators, Ernie. Um so uh yeah, this musical number
Speaker 1: is beautiful and it was very theatrical, and I remember
Speaker 1: thinking at the time, this is so beautiful, but will
Speaker 1: it work? I mean, it's such a weird It was
Speaker 1: so theatrical and such a different turn. But here we
Speaker 1: are talking about how we cried and got goosebumps. So
Speaker 1: twenty years later it still works. Well, it works. Okay,
Speaker 1: there's another reason why I got goosebumps when I and
Speaker 1: I cried when I was watching this because when we
Speaker 1: were shooting this episode and we got to this point
Speaker 1: in the where we're all together at the end, and
Speaker 1: she goes on a clue day when I can see,
Speaker 1: and then we go into the harmonies, I remember saying
Speaker 1: to everybody because we're lip syncing this, I was like,
Speaker 1: everybody sing off key, and the first person to sing
Speaker 1: off key is Sam Lloyd. And so it goes on
Speaker 1: a clear day when I can see, and then Sam
Speaker 1: goes see right, see whatever, and they goes see it,
Speaker 1: and then we all go to so we'll go on
Speaker 1: a clear day when I can see and then Sam,
Speaker 1: we'll go see on purpose because we're all singing off key,
Speaker 1: you can the audience can't tell. But when we're doing that,
Speaker 1: everyone because it was it was already we were lip syncing,
Speaker 1: so it didn't matter. Whatever we sang didn't matter. And
Speaker 1: so Sam does that and I if you watch, you
Speaker 1: can see me kind of start to lose it in
Speaker 1: the in the in the shot. And it was just
Speaker 1: one of those moments which picked a really good time
Speaker 1: for some wackiness. I did well, you did. Listen. We
Speaker 1: were dealing dealing with such serious stuff at the time.
Speaker 1: I wanted to, you know, maybe alleviate the pressure. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you alleviated that, and it just, you know, when
Speaker 1: I look back at it now, it was like, wow, Sam,
Speaker 1: Sam was always game to have fun in that realm,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And uh, when he did that,
Speaker 1: it so for me going back to that moment, it
Speaker 1: was a it's a moment that I that on one
Speaker 1: I'll never forget because when it happened, I couldn't stop laughing.
Speaker 1: It was my idea to do it as a gag,
Speaker 1: uh for the real but it turned out to be
Speaker 1: so freaking funny at the time that like, you can
Speaker 1: see me almost break if you watch it, and uh,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back and look for that Donald Phazon
Speaker 1: and and uh it's all because of And it was
Speaker 1: pretty much because Sam Lloyd. Sam's the one that sets
Speaker 1: it off too. If you look at it and who's
Speaker 1: in the scene, it's Sam, it's Uh, it's Neil, it's
Speaker 1: Ken myself. H yeah, but we're all we're all freak.
Speaker 1: It was so amazing to me. We all sang off
Speaker 1: key at that moment. I wonder if I wonder if
Speaker 1: any of the other actors and actresses remember that. It's
Speaker 1: something that I'll always hold dear because Sam was the
Speaker 1: first one to set it off. And they always made me,
Speaker 1: you know, look at them like, wow, dude, you you
Speaker 1: you can play or you'll play around even when you
Speaker 1: know it's a serious situation, and and and and make
Speaker 1: it sure that we can all have fun. He was
Speaker 1: such a great man. I missed that fellow. So we
Speaker 1: did it. That's the show, guys. But a show. Oh,
Speaker 1: such a wide range of emotions. There's ladies, there's there's
