Speaker 1: Oh my god, I've never missed three people more in
Speaker 1: my life. In fact, I never missed how many hundreds
Speaker 1: of thousands are listening so much. I really missed you all.
Speaker 1: We don't call you, don't right, We don't want to
Speaker 1: save it for the podcast. I can't be calling you
Speaker 1: and wasting gems. By the way, I want to start
Speaker 1: off right off the bat by saying, Joelle, I think
Speaker 1: you need to be a fucking podcast star because I
Speaker 1: listened to your intro to the thing you cut together
Speaker 1: for the fans because we couldn't be on, and you
Speaker 1: are just so charming. And I mean I know this
Speaker 1: from being on the show with you, but I'm saying
Speaker 1: when you were alone, you were so charming and charismatic
Speaker 1: and your voice was so soothing and Will Pearson our overlord,
Speaker 1: and eeheart, I know you're listening. You gotta fucking give
Speaker 1: Joelle our own show, even if it's with Donald or not.
Speaker 1: But I mean, you're you're a great on air talent. Joel.
Speaker 1: Thank you, sir. I appreciate it. It It was my pleasure.
Speaker 1: I like getting to talk to the fans exactly. It
Speaker 1: was fun. Right, Donald, do you want to chime in?
Speaker 1: I didn't listen to the show. This motherfucker. It's the
Speaker 1: most classic Donald sentence I've ever heard of my life.
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm glad you kept it real because you
Speaker 1: might have fucking lied. I'm gonna be honest with you, guys.
Speaker 1: I never listened to the show other than when we
Speaker 1: do our I don't either. I don't. I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't after we've done listening to it back before we
Speaker 1: put it out. I don't listen to it when it
Speaker 1: goes live. But you might have listened. You can literally
Speaker 1: take four minutes and listen to Joel's intro, which is beautiful.
Speaker 1: None of y'all motherfucker's got kids, yo, that'sh it's hard
Speaker 1: to do. Oh god, you know what. Kids is the
Speaker 1: ultimate excuse. It's so bullshit when you have kids, and
Speaker 1: I know, and I know it's hard, but you always
Speaker 1: use kids. You always use kids. It's the go to.
Speaker 1: But it's put in front of fucking bubble guppies and
Speaker 1: listen to Joel and then my and then my kid's
Speaker 1: brains are fucking bubble guppied out. No, they can fucking
Speaker 1: bubble guppy for five minutes while you fucking respect Joel queen, queen,
Speaker 1: the fucking queen. Sorry, I'm the one who made you
Speaker 1: on latch. I'm the one who made you on latch
Speaker 1: this time. I'm sorry, leg parents. I just wanted to.
Speaker 1: I just want to. I just wanted to be out
Speaker 1: there with y'all. That was Zach Braft who made you
Speaker 1: on latch today. I'm sorry. Now, I'll soothe it, get
Speaker 1: it back, get him, get him back on there. It
Speaker 1: is there. Oh my god, it's the nastiest way to
Speaker 1: get a kid. Why because okay, there it is there.
Speaker 1: It is the milk flow, yes, yes, let it in
Speaker 1: its Oh man, I missed you, guys. I missed everyone.
Speaker 1: I missed all your listeners. I missed everybody. So much
Speaker 1: has happened, so much has happened. I don't even order
Speaker 1: to begin the I see you. Beds are filling up,
Speaker 1: if that's the clearest way for me to tell it
Speaker 1: to you. If you live in certain counties in this country,
Speaker 1: there are just no ICU beds left, so if you
Speaker 1: have a stroke, there's nowhere for them to put you.
Speaker 1: I read an article where someplace in leave it as
Speaker 1: Arizona could be wrong about that. They're just they're starting
Speaker 1: to treat people in the fucking waiting room. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: just no you know, there's no more. This is what
Speaker 1: happens when the message that's sent out is a you know,
Speaker 1: convoluted message, right, is that the right word? Where it's
Speaker 1: kind of all over the place, and you know, wear
Speaker 1: a mask, don't wear a mask. It doesn't matter if
Speaker 1: you wear a mask. This is what happens. This is
Speaker 1: what happens when you have poor leadership, and I know, people,
Speaker 1: it's also what happens. This is the first we've reached
Speaker 1: an era. As we all know, I'm not stealing anything groundbreaking,
Speaker 1: but where where we have two different sets of facts.
Speaker 1: I mean, there is obviously a set effects, but people
Speaker 1: are are are digesting a completely different facts set and
Speaker 1: you can't really it's pretty I mean, Dan Joy, Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's facts, there's you can't really maintain a democracy like
Speaker 1: that if you don't agree on facts. Well, there's facts
Speaker 1: and then there's made up facts. There's facts and then
Speaker 1: there's made up facts. And the made up facts are
Speaker 1: now being considered just as factual as reg as real facts.
Speaker 1: And that's new, and that's new, and I'm sure that
Speaker 1: mister Trump will go and start a network Trump network,
Speaker 1: as everyone seems to think he will, and I don't.
Speaker 1: None of this is going away. I mean, he's just
Speaker 1: gonna He's gonna he's getting people that voted for him.
Speaker 1: Now he's gonna be Rupert Murdoch. He's going to be
Speaker 1: his own Roupert Mark. So anyway, good for listen, listen.
Speaker 1: It's all about making money for the guy anyway, and
Speaker 1: for all of his followers and all of his constituents
Speaker 1: and all of these people who are falling in line.
Speaker 1: You know, hey, I get it. You have a leader
Speaker 1: that you want to follow, and you feel like he's
Speaker 1: going to take you to the promised Land. But I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you something right now, at the end of
Speaker 1: the day, who do you think he cares about more
Speaker 1: you or himself. Let's just be honest. He's playing golf
Speaker 1: every day. I mean, I mean, I know people are dying.
Speaker 1: I put this on Twitter. I was like saying, like, thinking,
Speaker 1: everyone in your life, even the most selfish person you know,
Speaker 1: even the most narcissistic, fucked up person you know, can
Speaker 1: you think in anyone you know or even tangentially know
Speaker 1: that if they were president and two thousand people were
Speaker 1: dying a day of a pandemic, would go play golf. No,
Speaker 1: it's still hard to believe, like we saw it happened,
Speaker 1: and it's still impossible to believe that someone could have
Speaker 1: still a little care for so many lives being lost,
Speaker 1: and like you can easily, it's still baffling to me.
Speaker 1: There's so many testimony. You guys have very eloquently stated
Speaker 1: the testimonials about what it was like watching somebody go
Speaker 1: through this. I read about a woman in Georgia whose
Speaker 1: father and aunt died of COVID days apart, and like
Speaker 1: what her struggle was, or just like how do we
Speaker 1: honor their wishes? And but also we keep this personal.
Speaker 1: It's just awful, like it's the evidence is everywhere, And
Speaker 1: then to hear the doctors specifically coming back to discuss
Speaker 1: like it's awful to see patients who were like I
Speaker 1: didn't think it was real, gasping for their last breath,
Speaker 1: like not, no, not even I didn't think it was real,
Speaker 1: for the gasping for their last breaths, and still not believing,
Speaker 1: still calling it, still insisting it's a hoax. This is
Speaker 1: this is bad, bad messaging, this is bad leadership, And
Speaker 1: at the end of his run. It just seems like
Speaker 1: he's like, because I lost fuck it all, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. Uh, and that's unfortunate, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. It seemed to be like, I mean, the
Speaker 1: attitude of playing golf seems to me like I'm out
Speaker 1: of ideas. Will wait for the vaccine. The problem is
Speaker 1: is that that vaccine making a difference and being so
Speaker 1: everywhere for everyone isn't going to be until the end
Speaker 1: of next year. Yeah, but that doesn't that doesn't mean
Speaker 1: people can't get it. There'll be a lot of people
Speaker 1: who can get it. This will be distributed really fast.
Speaker 1: Sah Welllon Joel, correct me if I'm wrong. But what
Speaker 1: I've read is, of course frontline workers and seniors and
Speaker 1: people more susceptible first, But the average Joe who's not
Speaker 1: in that in those categories, what are they talking Summer
Speaker 1: danial something like that. Yeah, there's there's tears that you
Speaker 1: can check out of when I was to be getting
Speaker 1: their releases and stuff. But I agree, But but a
Speaker 1: healthy male in his forties is probably summer. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: probably a few months away most definitely. I less you
Speaker 1: got that money. Unless you got that money, I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, I mean, unfortunately, money always talks. But also
Speaker 1: I think the bigger problem is going to be getting
Speaker 1: people to take it at all. Is going to be
Speaker 1: the people. You know, there are people who don't believe
Speaker 1: it's real and will therefore not take the vaccine. Don't
Speaker 1: necessarily approve everything, Like some of the ship that should
Speaker 1: be approved, the FDA doesn't necessarily approve. Not that means
Speaker 1: it shouldn't have been approved, right, but well, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think marijuana should be approved by the FDA so
Speaker 1: that we are wait for what though for what for nausea,
Speaker 1: for insomnia, for pain relief, If we're going there, I
Speaker 1: think that's the mental health because the thing is, if
Speaker 1: we're just talking about smoking weed, and to borrow a
Speaker 1: line from a favorite documentaries, the crude combustion of a
Speaker 1: plant substance inhaled into our lungs, Like, if that's what
Speaker 1: we're talking about, then no where are they going to
Speaker 1: approve that, because that's bad for you on the surface,
Speaker 1: inhaling smoke. But so but so are all of these
Speaker 1: other things. But by the way, I'm sorry to break
Speaker 1: it to you and the people I know who smoke
Speaker 1: a whole lot more weed than I do. The FDA.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna like what the FDA SAIDs. They're probably
Speaker 1: gonna come out and say, by the way, it does
Speaker 1: affect memory laws, by the way, and it doesn't suck
Speaker 1: up your lungs and it and it can't cause cancer,
Speaker 1: no doubt. But hold on, But so do all of
Speaker 1: these other pills. So does oxycotton. All of these things
Speaker 1: are freaking major fucking drug problems in America right now.
Speaker 1: We can't sit here and tell me that because I
Speaker 1: smoke weed and I go, I'm gonna I might Oh
Speaker 1: my god, there's a possibility that I and it's it's
Speaker 1: a real possibility. There's a possibility I could get cancer.
Speaker 1: There's a possibility that I could lose my memory. But
Speaker 1: there's a possibility when you take all of these other
Speaker 1: drugs that you can do so many other things as well.
Speaker 1: I don't understand how that's okay. These I just think
Speaker 1: that these are kind of we're moving into slightly different
Speaker 1: conversations here. We're talking about addiction and the opioid crisis
Speaker 1: in America and I think and across the world for
Speaker 1: that matter. Like, I think that's a slightly different conversation
Speaker 1: than the effectiveness and the efficacy of like the FDA
Speaker 1: and vaccines and stuff like that. Like you know, you
Speaker 1: know why Donald changed the subject because he smokes too
Speaker 1: much pot. Hey talking to quite a huge pot smoker
Speaker 1: over here. And I would love nothing more than for
Speaker 1: cannabis to be legalized recreationally across the country on a
Speaker 1: federal level, to get to expunge all of the records
Speaker 1: of these petty criminal drug charges that have kept people
Speaker 1: in jail for years and years and years. But it
Speaker 1: would take No, it wouldn't because it wouldn't know it's
Speaker 1: just on recreations, just recreational cannabis, and then it's just expunge. Okay, yes, exactly,
Speaker 1: a federal law needs to pass, and that's something on
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's thing. But like if we're just talking about
Speaker 1: like dangerous or something like that, like alcohol kills more people,
Speaker 1: the marijuana hasn't killed anybody like that, you can't you
Speaker 1: can't say you gotta be no doubt, you gotta be
Speaker 1: clear about it when you say that shit. So okay,
Speaker 1: So marijuana spokes of THHC has never killed it, But
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean somebody smoking marijuana didn't have their senses
Speaker 1: about them and stepped outside and got home. That's different.
Speaker 1: They got hit by a car. The car killed them. Well, well,
Speaker 1: well they're not being able to process what's going on.
Speaker 1: Also to put stepped into Okay, well then then anger
Speaker 1: is a drug, just like marijuana, because people who are angry, Sugar,
Speaker 1: I mean like this is a slippery slope. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna sus. Marijuana has not killed a single person. All right,
Speaker 1: everybody comes. Ever, we're so passionate because we haven't seen
Speaker 1: each other that we have so much to say. I know,
Speaker 1: it's great, and I want to let the audience in
Speaker 1: a little surprise that in fifteen minutes the Bill Lawrence
Speaker 1: he's gonna join us for the rest of the episode.
Speaker 1: He had to come and join late, but he was
Speaker 1: he missed us as well and wanted to join. And
Speaker 1: I said, yes, yes, Bill excited. Donald, I'm very excited.
Speaker 1: Did you watch Ted last night? I told you watched
Speaker 1: Ted last song? Dude, you turn me to watch Ted
Speaker 1: Lasso at like ten pm last night? I told you
Speaker 1: should start it out of respect for our friends. How
Speaker 1: to fuck? Am? I listen? Man? Okay, big Donald, I'm
Speaker 1: sorry you haven't seen Ted Lasso. No, no, I've watched
Speaker 1: it three times. It's so good, very little television. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna watch the season finale. I promise you, I'm gonna say,
Speaker 1: oh God, oh my god, he's gonna do the fucking asshole.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watcher. I'm gonna talk about serious final I'm really,
Speaker 1: I'm furious, Like I gotta tell you, I'm gonna talk
Speaker 1: about this when Bill comes on. So I'll wait, but
Speaker 1: I just gonna say real quickly, and I'll and we'll
Speaker 1: go back to other ship. But because I want to
Speaker 1: save it for Bill. But I cried my eyes out
Speaker 1: at that finale. It's so heart warm me. It's so
Speaker 1: good you guys. Episode two. I agree everyone. I agree
Speaker 1: Episode two is the best because I directed it. But
Speaker 1: other ones are good too. But the last thing I
Speaker 1: want to say about, oh I broke my toe, I
Speaker 1: should probably announce my motorcycle. I had a bit of
Speaker 1: a had a motorcycle accident. Motorcycle accident, well, I wasn't
Speaker 1: going fast at all. But a woman in a family,
Speaker 1: or at least a husband and wife and a child,
Speaker 1: well I'm not gonna blame them. A driver took a
Speaker 1: giant corner in the Hollywood Hills. She took it with
Speaker 1: just basically in what would be my lane. If I
Speaker 1: was a car, it would have been a head on collision.
Speaker 1: She just was coming around a blind corner on what
Speaker 1: was her what was her left side and my right side.
Speaker 1: Fortunately I wasn't in a car because it would have
Speaker 1: been a head on. I was in a motorcycle, so
Speaker 1: I could skid off to the right. I was, we
Speaker 1: weren't going fast, I was only five miles an hour,
Speaker 1: but I but in skidding off to the right, lost
Speaker 1: my balance, jumped, had to jump off to the right,
Speaker 1: and the entire bike fell on my right foot. I
Speaker 1: and this woman's like, sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't cry,
Speaker 1: but fuck it hurt and it really got huge. And
Speaker 1: then I went to the orthopedes who said, the the
Speaker 1: middle bone of my big toe is. He said, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to even tell you the medical word for it,
Speaker 1: but it means smashed. So I got it. There's not
Speaker 1: much you can do for a broken toe except where
Speaker 1: this thing. I have this thing. It looks like, yeah.
Speaker 1: I put on my Instagram. I was like, these new
Speaker 1: yeasis are fire, but that sucks. I have to ice
Speaker 1: it and and do that ship. But by the way,
Speaker 1: I want to just say. The last thing about the
Speaker 1: drug conversation is they tried to give me not oxy
Speaker 1: but something like it. And I was like, I was like, no,
Speaker 1: I'll take talent on and he's like, oh, I'll write
Speaker 1: you the script, and you know, I was like, no,
Speaker 1: I don't want it. I don't even want it my house.
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you people who are listening, I'm advised
Speaker 1: he was a fake doctor. Unless you are in fucking real,
Speaker 1: holy shit pain, do not take these drugs they are
Speaker 1: giving to you. They are fucking addictive and once you're on,
Speaker 1: you're stuck. You're done. So a fucking advil and ice
Speaker 1: and actually adult is wrong for this, he said. He
Speaker 1: said extra strength talent all and will help it better.
Speaker 1: And we if you're a pot smoker, but do not
Speaker 1: unless you are in oh my god, I cannot survive pain.
Speaker 1: Do not fucking take these drugs. They are addictive and
Speaker 1: they will fuck you up. Read a book called Dope Sick.
Speaker 1: Michael Kidd is making a movie What does adderall do?
Speaker 1: Adderalls for attention deficit disorders. That's when you why is
Speaker 1: everybody taking ad Because if you don't have add. It
Speaker 1: does the opposite, and it's like speed. So if you
Speaker 1: have ADD, it helps you focus. If you don't have ADD,
Speaker 1: it's like cocaine, it makes you fucking like a right,
Speaker 1: let me get this straight. So all of these people
Speaker 1: that are doing adderall are pretty much doing cocaine. Yeah, speed, right, guys. Yeah,
Speaker 1: essentially it listen if you helps it concentrate. Yeah, people
Speaker 1: look at it was like yeah, well yeah, well it's
Speaker 1: all right. I had a couple of late nights in college.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna things happen people, I mean college. What
Speaker 1: was that ship that Mike Jackson was on proper fall? No,
Speaker 1: that's that's very different and also awful. That was it
Speaker 1: that's used the dude, they used that surgery to put
Speaker 1: you under, that's what. But he was getting injected to
Speaker 1: go to sleep at night. No, he was that what
Speaker 1: it was. Jeez, yeah, that's some of these things like
Speaker 1: I want that regeneration. I'm not gonna lie to you man,
Speaker 1: like you don't need the getener it means you're as fuck.
Speaker 1: Wait a question for you, guys. But they if you
Speaker 1: take the regenera on, it helps against the COVID two
Speaker 1: though doesn't like before you get COVID two though, doesn't
Speaker 1: it because you're just pumping anybodies into your body? No,
Speaker 1: I don't know who's that on News Max. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I saw somebody talk about it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's really helped for these days. All right, listen, I
Speaker 1: have a question for you guys, totally off topic. Let's
Speaker 1: say I'm buying my girlfriend a Christmas present on Craigslist
Speaker 1: from San Francisco and it's pricey, but it's awesome. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't do it, No, listen, how do I do it
Speaker 1: such that I don't get ripped off? What's what's the
Speaker 1: what's the equivalent of like escrow in this situation. I
Speaker 1: saw that Team Mom where she tried to buy that
Speaker 1: car on on Craigslist and she lost the money. Man,
Speaker 1: I would I'm just saying, Man, I don't know about craigslist,
Speaker 1: Daniel Joel, Do you have any they have a rating?
Speaker 1: Can you see like how they've sold before and they've
Speaker 1: completed the transactions and such? List I really leave a
Speaker 1: lot up to the description, like however much work someone's
Speaker 1: willing to put into them trying to sell you something?
Speaker 1: What if I give them what if I negotiate with
Speaker 1: the fellas such that I go, you're gonna get X
Speaker 1: amount to ship it to me, and when it arrives,
Speaker 1: I'll give you the why amount. But then you're then
Speaker 1: you're sketchy, though you know, how does it work? And
Speaker 1: that's the thing I would stick. I'm going to freaking
Speaker 1: Amazon before I go to No. This was this is
Speaker 1: a very special thing that I had to search for
Speaker 1: and found on Craigslist San Francisco. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: I don't. I would say. I would say, get a
Speaker 1: third third party who has some you know, muscle or
Speaker 1: someone with them to muscle. Do you mean like a
Speaker 1: like a bodybuilder guy. I mean I would be like
Speaker 1: a bodybuilder. But like I'll put it to this way.
Speaker 1: If I was going to go get something on Craigslist,
Speaker 1: no matter what it was, I'm bringing a friend. And
Speaker 1: Donald has Donald has himself called me stocky, and like
Speaker 1: I could fux somebody up and I still would bring
Speaker 1: a friend with me no matter where I got to
Speaker 1: pick anything. I'm right, But they murdered people on this ship.
Speaker 1: Though I'm not they murdered people on this ship. There
Speaker 1: must be some app We'll look it up and by
Speaker 1: the way I'm saying. If you're not going to solve
Speaker 1: this conundrum and you're listening, please email Joe. What's our
Speaker 1: email again, it's scrubs. iHeart at gmail dot com. Email
Speaker 1: us at scrubs iHeart at gmail dot com and tell
Speaker 1: Joel how how you best recommend I deal with this conundrum? Actually,
Speaker 1: I actually, you know what, it's funny that we're talking
Speaker 1: about this because I know somebody who might be able
Speaker 1: to help with this exact problem. Oh sorry, yeah, arrived,
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen. What's that headbands? He's got a headbead band.
Speaker 1: He's got his Rambo headband on. He looks like if
Speaker 1: Rambo had a pink headband. Oh wait, go out. And

Speaker 1: star from the eighties and nice, Yeah you look you look.
Speaker 1: I mean you look really cool. By the way, I'm
Speaker 1: not laughing because it's not true. I'm laughing because to
Speaker 1: say it, I'm very tight. Pink headband. I'm gonna I'm
Speaker 1: gonna blow you up for one second because I just
Speaker 1: before we're gonna move on to a lot of other things.
Speaker 1: We haven't seen each other in two weeks, so we're
Speaker 1: just rambling. Oh cool. Hey guys, By the way, I
Speaker 1: missed you both. I love you both, love you too.
Speaker 1: I was confessing to these guys, but I stopped because
Speaker 1: I knew you were coming on that I saved the
Speaker 1: finale of ted Lasso because I was enjoying the show.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm happy to be a part of it, and
Speaker 1: I and I was really enjoying it. And I saved
Speaker 1: the finale for just a few nights ago, and I sobbed.
Speaker 1: And Bill, I'm not talking when tears streamed down your face.
Speaker 1: I'm talking when you start to make an audible noise.
Speaker 1: You people listening to know what I'm talking about. When
Speaker 1: you're like and you're like, why tears are one thing, dude,
Speaker 1: you don't need to make audible noises. It was so beautiful, dude,
Speaker 1: And I really, really, really am. I hope it's okay
Speaker 1: to say proud because I don't mean to connote. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's weird because you're my mentor, but I'm so proud
Speaker 1: of you. Oh kay you. By the way, it's not
Speaker 1: it's my favorite thing. Is is my which is? I
Speaker 1: think I annoy you guys, all four of you, by
Speaker 1: calling this my podcast Hey, Joel, Hey down, I call
Speaker 1: this my podcast. I get a little secret anger every
Speaker 1: time somebody uh tweets to you and me about Ted
Speaker 1: Lasso Zack. I love it. I like listen, Bill, I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna put this out there. When you do the
Speaker 1: rewatch podcast for Ted Lasso? Could I be the host
Speaker 1: for that? Twenty years Donald, you'll be you'll be sixty,
Speaker 1: that will be sixty six. My first topic is, Look,
Speaker 1: I know Zachie had to work, so you guys had
Speaker 1: to have a week down right, And so next time
Speaker 1: Donald and I host and we make it a episode
Speaker 1: slash talk about zach episode, It's gonna be delicious. I
Speaker 1: love my My concern is that the fans will like
Speaker 1: it more and then I'll be out of a hobby.
Speaker 1: They won't I'll be respected. I need my hobby. Bill,
Speaker 1: And if you're extra charming as you can and be,
Speaker 1: the fans are gonna be like, whoa, that was fucking
Speaker 1: way better? Bring back Bill, correct man? Bill. The chance
Speaker 1: that you know I can dial it up and down
Speaker 1: depending on the seat. Yeah, could you give little five
Speaker 1: charm Bill instead of little ten charm when you do this? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Good to see you, all right? We should probably we've
Speaker 1: been doing We've done twenty four minutes without mentioning Strup,
Speaker 1: so we should probably get into five six seven he
Speaker 1: ses about show we made about a bunch of docs
Speaker 1: and nurses can stories. So gat around here, yato around here,
Speaker 1: Welcome to the show. We know you were upset. We
Speaker 1: were off for two weeks. I'm so sorry. My my
Speaker 1: instagram is I love where we off for two weeks.
Speaker 1: We weren't off for two weeks. Sorry, the last week
Speaker 1: we missed a week? So what does that mean? Did
Speaker 1: we You mean we didn't put a new show me,
Speaker 1: there was a gap. There's a gap between there was
Speaker 1: one week gap, but there was a show. We did
Speaker 1: put a show out, though, just a clip show. It's
Speaker 1: very it's very. Bill will tell you it's pretty baldy
Speaker 1: to put out a clip show your third season, but
Speaker 1: we did it. Especially. But let me say something, Let
Speaker 1: me let me say something. Let me quickly say something
Speaker 1: in our defense. A lot of people who do these
Speaker 1: bank episodes. Okay, now we could do that. We could
Speaker 1: bank five of them and never have never missed. But
Speaker 1: I quite enjoy this show being somewhat current. I like
Speaker 1: that we can talk. I mean we we We usually
Speaker 1: record on a Friday and aired on a Tuesday. This
Speaker 1: week we're recording on a Wednesday because it's the holiday.
Speaker 1: But I and I think the fans. I assume the
Speaker 1: fans like that that we can talk about at least somewhat.
Speaker 1: I don't want air episodes that we recorded a month ago. No,
Speaker 1: but look as as as the guy that owns and
Speaker 1: pays all of your salaries for my podcast, you know
Speaker 1: I will say I don't like it when if we
Speaker 1: can make it so, we don't drop a week, even
Speaker 1: if it means me guest hosting or you got it,
Speaker 1: got it, as long as you promise, if if you're
Speaker 1: willing to, if you're really willing to do that, Bill,
Speaker 1: you're a very busy milling, you're willing. He wants to
Speaker 1: fucking take over the fucking bills. Podcasting is not a joke.
Speaker 1: It's my podcast. I love it. Donald, after all this time,
Speaker 1: you don't know him well enough to know the bills
Speaker 1: podcasting is not merely a joke. You just gotta be cool.
Speaker 1: That's my favorite. It's my favorite thing to do with
Speaker 1: all of our TV writer friends. If anybody starts telling
Speaker 1: me their idea for a show or a show they're
Speaker 1: working on a pilot they're doing. I usually wait like
Speaker 1: twenty minutes, I go, you know, by telling me I
Speaker 1: now own about a third of this real I feel
Speaker 1: like I have that contract somewhere. If you just take it,
Speaker 1: tell me about it, then it's mine. That's how it works. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's not hi, everybody. So now we're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: the TV show Scrubs. Donald, do you have your recap reating?
Speaker 1: This is a great episode and there's a big fun
Speaker 1: trivia about this episode that Bill is the perfect person
Speaker 1: to have on to talk about. Oh yeah, and by
Speaker 1: the way, it makes me really happy. Don't mention it yet, Bill,
Speaker 1: I'm teasing, and I'm doing what's called in the podcast
Speaker 1: radio world. I'm teasing something. Yes, Well, come all back
Speaker 1: right after. If you're doing a TV all right, here
Speaker 1: comes Mike Timer, Ready, Donald, and go. Tara Reid is
Speaker 1: back and she's covered in toilet paper and it is hot.
Speaker 1: Kelso is trying to convince Ted the lawyer to kill himself.
Speaker 1: Cox may not like Turk, but he damn sure respects him.
Speaker 1: And Carla and Elliott need a man hoo. How people
Speaker 1: view us as important for so many wrong reasons. We're
Speaker 1: always worried about how we're perceived. I'll say this to that,
Speaker 1: what I eat don't make you shit, So why worry
Speaker 1: what I eat? So why worry you? Were You were
Speaker 1: right on the thirty second mark with it. You had
Speaker 1: seven seconds to expound on that. But I thought that
Speaker 1: was well said. It was incredibly well like teacher quote.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's something I heard jay Z say once
Speaker 1: and I was like, that's a great line. What you know.
Speaker 1: I was going to make it, but it was jay Z.
Speaker 1: I'd take that on a teacha hova. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I can't do and get away
Speaker 1: with it is quote jay Z without seeming like an idiot.
Speaker 1: That's true. You can do it on really, let me
Speaker 1: try it right now. Okay, what I eat don't make
Speaker 1: you ship. And that's something I've always thought about. I
Speaker 1: think that's good that everybody I didn't sound right coming
Speaker 1: out of him. It didn't sound right. Well he could
Speaker 1: talk about this well, you could say, I think if
Speaker 1: you're if you're a white guy, you have to be
Speaker 1: like and as jay Z once said, what I eat
Speaker 1: don't fall. So I think I'm doing age is part
Speaker 1: of it. I'm just too old, you know, to be quoting.
Speaker 1: I'm about to say. You guys are the same age,
Speaker 1: aren't you. Yeah, he's got to be pushing five. Oh
Speaker 1: now right, he's close to it. When is your birthday?
Speaker 1: It's coming up? Yeah, after Christmas. Bill, if the world
Speaker 1: weren't ending, I would give you the biggest birthday hug. Actually, Bill,
Speaker 1: you're in my we've potted, we've we've become pod buddies,
Speaker 1: so I can see you. At least I'm gonna come in.
Speaker 1: We'll find a way, man, we'll find a way to
Speaker 1: hug the twenty six. Sorry, it's the twenty six. You're
Speaker 1: not Jesus. You're Jesus's Day, your day after Jesus. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well yeah, all right, I'll say to me, I take
Speaker 1: offense of that, you know, Jesus. Bill Janey back Janey
Speaker 1: Bachan is the writer on this one, with the very
Speaker 1: talented Craig zisc as the director. And it's the Christmas episode,
Speaker 1: which is sort of a proposed because we're getting into
Speaker 1: the holiday season. Bill, let's start open. Yeah, well, there's Christmas.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the Christmas episode, but there's
Speaker 1: Christmas decorations everywhere. Yeah, I think it's the closest episode
Speaker 1: we had Aaron to Christmas. I don't think we did
Speaker 1: a Christmas episode this year. So Bill, tell everyone what
Speaker 1: they very unique. Only once, I believe in eight and
Speaker 1: a half or nine seasons did this occur. Tell everybody
Speaker 1: what occurred. Oh so this is fascinating, man, because the look,
Speaker 1: it's an it's an old argument that's kind of gone
Speaker 1: away thanks to streaming. But what television network television specifically
Speaker 1: considered appropriate with sensors and with standards and practices was
Speaker 1: so weird. Especially you know, the age old argument was violence,
Speaker 1: you know versus uh, sexual cond you know, you kill
Speaker 1: anybody on TV, but don't have anybody you know, taking
Speaker 1: someone shirt off or something like that is crazy. And
Speaker 1: this episode in particular drove me insane because it was
Speaker 1: before medicinal marijuana was crazy, crazy, widespread, And the episode
Speaker 1: was originally written that Elliott and Carla are trying to
Speaker 1: help a cancerous woman who is on the way out
Speaker 1: and just having such a hard time with the pain
Speaker 1: and the discomfort. It was them out and about trying
Speaker 1: to get her marijuana because they knew medically that would
Speaker 1: alleviate a ship ton of her symptoms, and we handed
Speaker 1: that script in and said, you can't there this. You can't,
Speaker 1: unfortunately for you on NBC, even though it's for altruistic reasons.
Speaker 1: You can't have a physician and a nurse driving around
Speaker 1: trying to find someone they can buy pot off of.
Speaker 1: Pause one moment there, Bill, as I recall, you handed
Speaker 1: it in, but we had begun shooting you. We shot
Speaker 1: a scene or two of its. Yeah, but you know
Speaker 1: that just makes me look like some do it? All right,
Speaker 1: So what Zack story. One of the parts of Zach
Speaker 1: story is Bill sometimes didn't hand in the script until
Speaker 1: after we started shooting. Yeah, yeah, but you did. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the subject says, Bill, Well, you had you had the
Speaker 1: power and clout to be able to do shit like
Speaker 1: that in the day. But this was the one chance.
Speaker 1: This is the one opportunity where they were like yeah,
Speaker 1: but no, yeah, so say they said we wouldn't air it,
Speaker 1: And partly because it was an easy fix, and partly
Speaker 1: because I found it so hypocritical, I said, all right, well,
Speaker 1: because we need the story to storre work structurally, we'll
Speaker 1: just have the woman that's dying be a virgin and
Speaker 1: we'll have Elliott and Carla go look for a man
Speaker 1: horse so she can get laid. And they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's fine. I love that you were being facetious. And
Speaker 1: they were like, all right, but do that so they
Speaker 1: can't go even though it's proven by you know, so
Speaker 1: many medical studies. And now, as you guys know, we
Speaker 1: use uh, you know, different products, CBD, etcetera for any pain,
Speaker 1: but this was this was whatever, this was yea, even
Speaker 1: back then it was considered an amazing treatment for the
Speaker 1: side effects for chemo, you know, and for uh, for
Speaker 1: nausea and for all that stuff. So I'm I'm like,
Speaker 1: doctors can't go get a patient that's dying marijuana, but
Speaker 1: they can go to anywhere and get her a man horse,
Speaker 1: or she can have sex in the hospital. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: sounds funny. I'm like, all, but it is funny. Way
Speaker 1: it was funny. That is funny. It's a very it's
Speaker 1: a very funny episode Bill with a lot of memorable quotes,
Speaker 1: including the first ever what has two thumbs and doesn't
Speaker 1: give a crap bob bob job by the way, never ever,
Speaker 1: And that's an old joke and the only reason that
Speaker 1: joke feels new. Is it has never ever been delivered
Speaker 1: better than Ken J. Jenkins delivered man just and by
Speaker 1: the way, you know it's next version. It's sequel, which
Speaker 1: you guys will get to, is what has two thumbs
Speaker 1: and still doesn't give a crap? Instead Bob Kelso? How
Speaker 1: you do? And it's Bob Kelso. I thought we had met.
Speaker 1: You know, I had never heard this joke until this
Speaker 1: moment too. Yeah, this was the first time, and so
Speaker 1: I kind of got caught off guard when he was like,
Speaker 1: what has two thumbs and doesn't give a crap? I
Speaker 1: was like, what has two thumbs and doesn't? And then
Speaker 1: he goes bam. I laughed so hard. I don't think
Speaker 1: i've yeah to this day. You're absolutely right. Kids has
Speaker 1: kid crushes it better than dude anybody has. It was hilarious.
Speaker 1: It's hilarious, and I, like Donald I never I didn't
Speaker 1: know it was a known joke. I thought you guys
Speaker 1: came up with it, but I thought it was hilarious.
Speaker 1: He's an assassin. When he just says things like they're
Speaker 1: real that way, it just kills me. My biggest memory
Speaker 1: of And you guys can then drag through the different
Speaker 1: of this particular episode was I occasionally had times on scrubs.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys did too, that I'd wander onto
Speaker 1: set I wouldn't be sure or what we were doing,
Speaker 1: and then what was happening there would make me think
Speaker 1: that I was on Hulusenagin's or have a moment like
Speaker 1: how anybody do this on television? Because I had a
Speaker 1: bunch of things going on in this episode and was
Speaker 1: working on other things too sometimes. And I strolled down
Speaker 1: into the apartment set, which was away from everywhere else,
Speaker 1: and I walked in and Terror Reid was sitting on
Speaker 1: a throne of toilet paper, and there were like a
Speaker 1: bunch of male models dancing around, and I'm like, what
Speaker 1: the hell is going on? How is this? This isn't
Speaker 1: something for national television? Is it? Like? No, no, you guys,
Speaker 1: is in the script? All right? There's some full that
Speaker 1: shit had me rolling tower. There was two MM. There's
Speaker 1: two different sim there's two different tw read you're conflating too.
Speaker 1: There's one where she's in a room made of toilet paper,
Speaker 1: drinking a cocktail out of a toilet paper roll, and
Speaker 1: then there's another where I'm sort of a studious nerdy
Speaker 1: guy reading my book, and she's filled the apartment with
Speaker 1: male strippers who are gyrating all over her, and she
Speaker 1: shim hammocks everywhere or something. It'll be out of hammocks everywhere.
Speaker 1: Why Bill, Why why do j d and and and
Speaker 1: Turk have a rule about the guests bringing their own
Speaker 1: toilet paper? H I think that that was That was
Speaker 1: loosely based on a story I told about my college
Speaker 1: roommate named Steve mac who whenever we went on spring
Speaker 1: breaks or on trips, every time he opened his backpack,
Speaker 1: there'd be toilet paper in there, and it just always
Speaker 1: by the way. It's like those people that bring their
Speaker 1: own pillow on trips and you think you and then
Speaker 1: you sleep on the pillow. And we used to give
Speaker 1: him a shit, you know, like, oh if you baby
Speaker 1: your ass, little baby you and we get you know,
Speaker 1: we used to give him costs of shit about it.
Speaker 1: But then you get to some ski resort or some
Speaker 1: shitty hotel and they would have like two ply sand
Speaker 1: paper hanging from metal things by the toilet, and Steve
Speaker 1: Mack would be like, nobody touched my own toilet, And
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's good. That should be a rule. For
Speaker 1: bring your own toilet paper anywhere you go. That's funny. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have a buddy that brings his own wipes wherever
Speaker 1: he goes. It's not dumb. You know. I travel with
Speaker 1: a pillow. Now I don't feel bad about it. I
Speaker 1: did my first pillow travel, this time to London, Bill,
Speaker 1: because I have fallen in love with a pillow. And
Speaker 1: you can go to the fanciest hotel or the cheapest
Speaker 1: motel and and and have bad pillows and it sucks. Uh.
Speaker 1: You want to know another odd thing. And I did
Speaker 1: see this, I think because I looked at watch the
Speaker 1: episode last night and I didn't want to do a Gabby,
Speaker 1: which is what it means when you oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm told Bill. I was like, Bill, you you told
Speaker 1: us I'll bring a writer on and the writer didn't
Speaker 1: watch the episode. The h I love Gabby. They're so funny.
Speaker 1: That was so funny. It wasn't great, but we'd love
Speaker 1: to give her shit about it. The you know, she
Speaker 1: doesn't don't worry. She doesn't listen. She doesn't know where talking.
Speaker 1: By the way, this is on a Friday. She will
Speaker 1: not listen no matter what. The other piece of trivia
Speaker 1: that I remembered about this particular episode was there's a
Speaker 1: joke about Elliott saying someone saw her orgasm face. And
Speaker 1: I remember getting ship the writer's room because we are
Speaker 1: pretty good about continuity, but we contradicted ourselves with Elliott's
Speaker 1: sexual past. You did thousand times you did scrubs. Wicki
Speaker 1: is very upset about it. I will read you a
Speaker 1: direct quote from from people on TV without pity. We're
Speaker 1: not having it. Let me tell you something here we go.
Speaker 1: It says, when Elliott is talking to her patient, she
Speaker 1: talks about a time in high school when she had
Speaker 1: a quote orgasm face. Yet in a previous episode, she
Speaker 1: told Carla that she has never had an orgasm. Elliot's
Speaker 1: romantic life is full of differing stories, their contradictions. We also,
Speaker 1: I think she said once we said that she lost
Speaker 1: I think she lost her virginity in a crawl space.
Speaker 1: But maybe we can ragalize it by saying Elliott is
Speaker 1: just just doesn't I don't know, how can you say
Speaker 1: she doesn't remember her? And he also said, I think
Speaker 1: one time she lost her virginia with the guy that
Speaker 1: lost his arm to a bear. If you remember that.
Speaker 1: The way she's so funny in this episode. She was
Speaker 1: just like, let loose on this episode. I mean, you're
Speaker 1: both the writing for her and her whole just way
Speaker 1: of being. That was just fucking on like level ten
Speaker 1: this There were some uncomfortable moments though in this episode.
Speaker 1: For No, that one Randall jumping out of the closet
Speaker 1: and Krista and Johnny c being in the bed and leather.
Speaker 1: That kind of sucked me up. And do you remember
Speaker 1: who's in the remember who the g was it random? I? No?
Speaker 1: Wait better? Yeah, let wait hold up this time, No,
Speaker 1: Krista was oiled up too. They both put the oil
Speaker 1: on because they're doing some pulp fiction, gimp stuff. It
Speaker 1: was very weird. I can't imagine Christa reading that and
Speaker 1: being like, okay, Bill, Okay, By the way, I just
Speaker 1: laid low and tried to avoid her, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. This is Martin Clubb's first time on the show,
Speaker 1: and he's very funny, and he becomes a member of
Speaker 1: the janitorial staff eventually, right Bill, Yeah, and uh he
Speaker 1: was riding high too, because it was about right about
Speaker 1: the time that he became kind of a Pirates of
Speaker 1: the Caribbean or Caribbeans, Right Rock Spirates. Yeah, he's he's
Speaker 1: a famous action hero, now you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: He's fun He's a very funny guy. And he uh
Speaker 1: he I remember he was kind of cocky off Pirates
Speaker 1: because he rolled up in a pretty baller Corvette. Yeah.
Speaker 1: That uh that I always thought was funny because it
Speaker 1: was like the most dude masculine baller of fucking muscle car,
Speaker 1: just absolutely rock star car. Hey, we're gonna take a
Speaker 1: quick break, everybody, you know, we'll be right back with more.
Speaker 1: Long are those breaks? Are those breaks? Because I listened
Speaker 1: to you guys, those breakes like forty seconds, so they're
Speaker 1: like like five six, seven, eight off, turn it off?
Speaker 1: You had that locked and loaded bill. I did not.
Speaker 1: I did not. I just did it. I sold it
Speaker 1: because I can act. So Doctor Cox's cool Breath of
Speaker 1: Joy travels through the hospital. It finds Donald and and
Speaker 1: and Judy, who are arguing. By the way, Donald, I
Speaker 1: laughed out loud. You, by the way, you were particularly
Speaker 1: silly and funny in this episode. That you were You
Speaker 1: felt like, I'm gonna be doing what you might call watching.
Speaker 1: That was really really good you. You you were particularly
Speaker 1: I don't know, you were just silly and it felt
Speaker 1: like you were riffing and stuff. But when you you go,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have you're talking about your your wedding day,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have a cape and a wind machine,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna be like I do very funny. That
Speaker 1: made me laugh. I would look good in the cape
Speaker 1: and a wind machine, though. Man, So how about Elliott.
Speaker 1: Elliott takes a pick of her boobs. This is right
Speaker 1: that she This is right at the beginning of cell
Speaker 1: phone cameras. I'm guessing because this was kind of She's like,
Speaker 1: I've got one of those new cell phone cameras and
Speaker 1: she takes a picture. She sends it to a random
Speaker 1: person instead of Sean, And I am assuming that's a
Speaker 1: stumpman because he took a glorious fake hit to the
Speaker 1: head without flinching, which has advanced. He walked, I mean
Speaker 1: he sold the ship out of that does not he
Speaker 1: does not anticipate at all. No, it is very First
Speaker 1: of all, if you're listening and you've never tried to
Speaker 1: fake walk into a telephone pole, it's a little tricky
Speaker 1: to do the choreography of it, but not to flinch
Speaker 1: for even a split anything is the hard part. And
Speaker 1: that guy nailed it. Do you remember how many takes
Speaker 1: Zach in the pilot that we had to do because
Speaker 1: you would anticipate and close your eyes before you ran
Speaker 1: into the door at the end. It's yeah, that was
Speaker 1: my first first episode, first time trying to do physical comedy,
Speaker 1: and it's very hard to walk into a glass door.
Speaker 1: You can get yourself to do the timing of the
Speaker 1: of it, but but first of all, the glass door,
Speaker 1: unlike a telephone pole, you can't fake it. Basically where
Speaker 1: we ended up with the pilot is you just gotta
Speaker 1: do it, but you can't flinch. So walk into this
Speaker 1: glass door and not flinch is really fucking hard. That's yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a very difficult because your brain is like, no
Speaker 1: matter what you're trying to do as an actor, your
Speaker 1: brain is like, no, we're not going to walk into
Speaker 1: the glass door right, could close your eyes right now
Speaker 1: or it's gonna hurt your eyes right. So, but but anyway,
Speaker 1: this guy walked into a telephone pole like a pro.
Speaker 1: That was a plus A plus stunt there. I think
Speaker 1: he might have been a pro. No, he was definitely
Speaker 1: a stunt man. I mean he's one of our John
Speaker 1: Q citizen is not just showing up and doing that.
Speaker 1: So then we find do you guys remember because that
Speaker 1: that was it was cell phones renewed. You guys remember
Speaker 1: that I give us all beepers and pagers back then
Speaker 1: at the h Yeah, you gave it the very first.
Speaker 1: I thought it was the skyways. No Bill. Bill's Christmas present.
Speaker 1: We may have mentioned this before, but Bill present one
Speaker 1: year was blackberries for everybody, and I remember being like,
Speaker 1: what is this? You just write sentences and it comes up.
Speaker 1: I bought, I bought. I like to buy technology for
Speaker 1: people about sixty eight weeks before it becomes Obsoletely, that's
Speaker 1: my thing. Well, no, blackberries lasted a long time. I
Speaker 1: think they finally just folded. But but you that was
Speaker 1: my favorite, very first device was from you. Bill. Did
Speaker 1: you ever have a side kick? Anybody have a side kick? No?
Speaker 1: No sidekick that you'd look cool? They shit flipped up
Speaker 1: and made a sound and everything was like a star trek. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it looks cool. Look like that. I think. By the way, Donald,
Speaker 1: I think you're onto something. I think cell phones are
Speaker 1: all the same. Now, if they started doing cell phones
Speaker 1: that made cool noises or shot little hologram lasers out,
Speaker 1: and it seemed like kind of even it was just
Speaker 1: for bells and whistles, like a little bit of a
Speaker 1: Star Trek or Star Wars. Would I would buy that
Speaker 1: ship in a heart beat if I could get an
Speaker 1: app And it was Princess Leia doing the help me
Speaker 1: Obi wan Kenobi speech. If your phone went all out
Speaker 1: hologram lightsaber when you hit that button. I think we're
Speaker 1: holograms in our lifetime. I mean think so you think
Speaker 1: we'll get holograms like Star Wars? I think you? Did
Speaker 1: you see him Kardashian's gift from Kanye, Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: I'm already here. No but I but she gave Kanye
Speaker 1: gave her him a hologram of her father singing to her.
Speaker 1: I think a four minute speech. Then he gave to
Speaker 1: gave a four minute speech and a lot of it
Speaker 1: was about how great Kanye was. No, but but think
Speaker 1: it was the type of hologram like Princess Leia, like
Speaker 1: projected into the middle of the room. Was it? It
Speaker 1: was like it was? He said, they watched it on
Speaker 1: a video and you know it's expensive and three dimensional
Speaker 1: and it looks like him and he speaks and walks
Speaker 1: around and smiles. What I'm saying, he Kanye obviously hired
Speaker 1: amazing special effects house. I don't it wasn't like what
Speaker 1: we're talking about, like with the Cupio projecting, Princess are
Speaker 1: two are sorry? Sorry sorry? Sacrilege are two projecting? Do
Speaker 1: you not know that that's upset? It's a mistake. But
Speaker 1: he's like, he's like, he's like he like twitched. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I corrected you before you got all of the few
Speaker 1: you want to talk about how Mandalorian is not as
Speaker 1: good this season? Or is that can upset you? Guys?
Speaker 1: Oh you're gonna you're about smack in the face. Man.
Speaker 1: It's better than it was last year. Here's the thing
Speaker 1: that Okay, Bill, I'm sorry, this has to happen. Well
Speaker 1: know your feelings. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Here's
Speaker 1: the thing. Last year, it was the reason why most
Speaker 1: fans who aren't big Star Wars fans liked it last
Speaker 1: year compared to this year, was because it was it
Speaker 1: stood true to the Western and it's now you know
Speaker 1: it was the lone man with the Samurai movie. It
Speaker 1: stood true to that, the lone man, his kid, and
Speaker 1: then going through these towns, now they there's all of
Speaker 1: this story that they've developed from the future that's going
Speaker 1: to take place in the future, and all the story
Speaker 1: that's developed in between Return of the Jedi and what
Speaker 1: takes place. Then they have to freak and piece it
Speaker 1: together because of the I'm not gonna say bad story writing,
Speaker 1: but because of the holes that are in it all.
Speaker 1: Now I understand it doesn't I understand, it doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1: You don't like it, I understand. But for Star Wars fan,
Speaker 1: hold on, let me finish. For Star Wars fans, the
Speaker 1: last five ten minutes of that episode where they go
Speaker 1: and they see spoiler alert everyone, spoiler alertler Dan'll make
Speaker 1: the spoiler die. Where they where they go into the
Speaker 1: room and they see all of the clone bodies and
Speaker 1: you see that this could be where Snoke came from.
Speaker 1: That's a big deal, dude. That's a huge deal for
Speaker 1: all Star Wars fans because when that movie came out,
Speaker 1: that was a hole and it was I'm just speaking
Speaker 1: come now, I'm just speaking for me. I found Mandalorian
Speaker 1: to be one of my favorite Star Wars things. At
Speaker 1: season one, I thought was incredibly done and it's still
Speaker 1: incredibly done and incredibly made, and the production design and
Speaker 1: cinematography and storytelling. It's all great, I'm be saying. For me,
Speaker 1: these first few haven't been as holy shit intriguing as
Speaker 1: season one. Maybe I'm alone. These first few for me
Speaker 1: have been incredible because of the characters they've introduced and
Speaker 1: who's coming up next? Bill? Do you watch it or not?
Speaker 1: I do, because it's Henry's favorite show and he's way
Speaker 1: into and I think I think that second seasons of
Speaker 1: shows arrived with that much hoop, winner that well done
Speaker 1: are always a nightmare. And to me, as a writer producer,
Speaker 1: what I think you always do in a second season
Speaker 1: is slow down a smidge, try to lower expectations, get
Speaker 1: the exposition out, lay the groundwork for the stories you're
Speaker 1: gonna tell, especially, you know, like that show you're gonna
Speaker 1: be on for a long time, because it's almost when
Speaker 1: you the bar is set so high it's almost impossible
Speaker 1: to realize people's expectations you have. I'm gonna say you
Speaker 1: haven't you have this coming up next season with you
Speaker 1: have this Lasso because it's a global hit and people
Speaker 1: were like, come on, keep it going, Bill, and you're like,
Speaker 1: how do I? How do I? You can't sustain that
Speaker 1: you have to have some some ups and downs to
Speaker 1: the storytelling. I guess yeah, But you know, I think
Speaker 1: that I think that ours is a little different because
Speaker 1: you know Jason and he's kind of mapping it out
Speaker 1: is to three. It's a three season show, so he
Speaker 1: you know, everybody in this it's like what Donald's talking about.
Speaker 1: Super fans know that they're connecting tissue in the Star
Speaker 1: Wars universe, and for us, everybody knows that they get
Speaker 1: an end to this story in the third season. So so, Bill,
Speaker 1: are you giving us a fake Doctors exclusive that ted
Speaker 1: Lasso will only go three seasons? Ted Lasso is a
Speaker 1: three season show. After the third season, I will desperately
Speaker 1: try to get mister Sudeikis to do it. Like the
Speaker 1: only way I think a fourth season of ted Lasso
Speaker 1: exists would be like if ted Lasso went and coached
Speaker 1: a soccer team who played about a block from Jason's
Speaker 1: house in real life. You know what I mean? Oh?
Speaker 1: I see, but Bill, Bill, don't mess up our exclusive. Please, Okay,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, you are hearing it from the showrunner's mouth.
Speaker 1: This might only be a three season show. That that
Speaker 1: that that mad like all the Press. When this goes viral,
Speaker 1: we want all the press for the podcast mentioned Big
Speaker 1: Doctor's Real Friends. Hey, press, when you pick this up
Speaker 1: and make it go viral. You heard it on Fake Doctors,
Speaker 1: Real Friends. Bill talked about it on Fake Doctors, Real Friends.
Speaker 1: I'll talk about anything, Bill, you better not give anybody
Speaker 1: else exclusive. We hear you on other podcasts and we
Speaker 1: get jealous. I don't think I've done another podcast. So
Speaker 1: you did the sports he one, Oh yeah, but the
Speaker 1: sports we won. They made fun of you for calling
Speaker 1: on the podcast. That's a nationally syndicated radio show. He
Speaker 1: doesn't know much about sports talking. I don't know anything.
Speaker 1: I don't know anything. That show is super cool. Really
Speaker 1: love what they do over there because it's a much
Speaker 1: like you, guys really say, you're a rewatch show. You
Speaker 1: talk about the world and issues and connect That group
Speaker 1: is uh masquerading as a sports show, and they talk
Speaker 1: about what's going on in the world and look after
Speaker 1: each other and stuff, and it's really cool. You really
Speaker 1: like it. Give it a shout out. What's it called?
Speaker 1: What's it called? It's called Dan Libertardu and Stugats and
Speaker 1: Donald hadn't heard of it. Donald mister spot guy. I
Speaker 1: do watch Dan Libertard on on ESPN with his dad. Yep, Poppy,
Speaker 1: Poppy poppy. Uh and uh so I do, I do,
Speaker 1: I do know who he is. I didn't yet a
Speaker 1: radio show like that. It got so big nationally that
Speaker 1: they started airing it on ESPN two hours a day,
Speaker 1: five days a week for a while. Now it's on
Speaker 1: ESPN Plus. And was that the same thing with him
Speaker 1: and his dad was that the show with him is
Speaker 1: this one was more that him and a bunch of
Speaker 1: producers and ragtag group of guests. They kind of sort
Speaker 1: of sect dissect sports issues, but more talk about culture,
Speaker 1: you know. And look, they just had a great like
Speaker 1: ted Lasso like moment, which was ESPN made massive cutbacks
Speaker 1: and let tons of people go, and one of the
Speaker 1: beloved young producers on the show and they're all on
Speaker 1: air on screen talent got let go. It just part
Speaker 1: of the ESPN things. So they stopped Aaron shows for
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks and I mean a couple of days,
Speaker 1: and when they started up again, he was miraculously Dan's
Speaker 1: assistant and had returned to the show with his salary
Speaker 1: being paid by Dan, you know. And he's a good guy,
Speaker 1: you know. And it's an interesting it's an interesting, funny show.
Speaker 1: Roy Bellamy is the dude over there that is a
Speaker 1: massive scrubspant. Shout out Roy Bellamy every week. Every week
Speaker 1: you you tweet man something about the show. Shout out
Speaker 1: Roy Bellamy Man. Thank you Roy, And I'm sorry I
Speaker 1: called it a podcast. I know now that it is
Speaker 1: naturally sid They they're so successful. They have splinter off
Speaker 1: podcasts from their radio show. They're over on ESPN. We're
Speaker 1: gonna do that too, eventually. Donald and Joel are gonna
Speaker 1: have a Star Wars thing where they we're working on it.
Speaker 1: I owe Joella recording. Why why are you blowing off Joel? Dude,
Speaker 1: I'm not blowing off anybody, man. I'm a busy motherfucker.
Speaker 1: You mean that we're shooting on a Wednesday. We're recording
Speaker 1: on a Wednesday because you were freaking directing. Why are
Speaker 1: you directing when we got when we're making a podcast, motherfucker?
Speaker 1: Why are you directing the pond? Donald took a shirt off.
Speaker 1: Why would you take this? Because I'm pissed off about this, motherfucker.
Speaker 1: I'm this motherfucker just pissing me a fuck off the
Speaker 1: running down the street. Are you punching yourself in the chest? Donald,
Speaker 1: I got an ice picking my eye in my hand.
Speaker 1: I'm stabbing myself. Yell I'm listening. I'm mad, Donald. Are
Speaker 1: you mad that I that I had the audacity to
Speaker 1: go direct something for four days? I'm pissed off about that.

Speaker 1: that I saw you got an xbox I saw then XO. Yeah,
Speaker 1: sure you showed the picture. You know what you promised me.
Speaker 1: You know what you promised me. You and Danny could
Speaker 1: both promised me something, and I'm sitting here without it.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna like to give it away. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you, Joel, Yeah, just wait anyway, I have to
Speaker 1: interject Zach because you guys have to understand that for me,
Speaker 1: this is so surreal because when Donald was yelling, I
Speaker 1: immediately went back to one of my favorite moments and
Speaker 1: Scrubs And he's mad that JD went to disney Disneyland.
Speaker 1: That man went to Disneyland without me. Elliott, I tried,
Speaker 1: was You're like, I saw what you got, you got
Speaker 1: and you're mad about that? It sounds exactly like I
Speaker 1: got a roller coaster. They got a roller coaster the door.
Speaker 1: They got a ride where you can see Nemo when
Speaker 1: it comes up to you and you're like, hi, Nemo, No,
Speaker 1: don't you don't say it? Like they got roller coasters
Speaker 1: and roller coasters and dark. They got roller coasters that
Speaker 1: roller coast in the dark, the best hold together for
Speaker 1: a second. For a second, You're like, you know, I'm fine,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go on with my day. I can't. I
Speaker 1: can't do it. That's one of the funny I laugh
Speaker 1: at that every time I see by the way, I've
Speaker 1: since been to Disneyland with him many times. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: know that, But you guys just recreated that in your
Speaker 1: real friendship life. Do you know that? Really? That had
Speaker 1: to come from real life though, from him going to
Speaker 1: Disneyland without me and me being pissed off about it.
Speaker 1: That has to be the probably didn't do it, probably
Speaker 1: did happen, all right, listen, what happened on this? What
Speaker 1: were you supposed to do? You're not supposed to buy that. No, No,
Speaker 1: there's an x there's a brand new Xbox that came out.
Speaker 1: It's called the Xbox X. Is that what it's called
Speaker 1: Danel and Xbox Series X, but we were supposed to
Speaker 1: get the PS five though. That's what Joel is still
Speaker 1: trying to get. Bill if you want to get her
Speaker 1: at Christmas, I got like five of them. If anybody
Speaker 1: wants you not if you don't want to see if
Speaker 1: you really want to steal my podcast from me, find
Speaker 1: a way to gift Joel and Daniel PS fives, and
Speaker 1: I think I'll be fired. I'm yours. Whatever has so
Speaker 1: much money he could probably have someone make them from
Speaker 1: scratch in his basement. Yeah, I want to give one
Speaker 1: for Henry for Christmas and then one for Henry to
Speaker 1: give to someone else for Christmas. So he's got a
Speaker 1: bunch of them. Just sit be funny. I'm gonna say this.
Speaker 1: I will say this for all of you out there
Speaker 1: who are PS five's and Xbox Series xes and everything
Speaker 1: like that, there's a system out there that you can
Speaker 1: get that's a lot of fun and the graphics are amazing.
Speaker 1: And if you're in the universe also when you put
Speaker 1: the Oculus Quest to shout out Oculus Quest two, that
Speaker 1: is a lot of fun and and it's available at
Speaker 1: stores still. So if you really are looking for an
Speaker 1: escape this holiday weekend. This is not this is not

Speaker 1: to do a lot of connecting things to make it work.
Speaker 1: But the new game has come out called Galaxy's Edge
Speaker 1: Journey to Galaxy's Edge. It's an action adventure game. It's
Speaker 1: got a bunch of really cool things that you can
Speaker 1: do in it. What are you doing? You're trying not
Speaker 1: to freak out about star Oh my god, will you
Speaker 1: give this in a podcast? Oh my god, it's so good. Well,

Speaker 1: who directed several Mandalorians. I offered that up. I don't

Speaker 1: Henry come on and weigh in. I no, man, I
Speaker 1: would be in the dark. I'm in the dark about that.

Speaker 1: ago because my my daughter was performing there and I
Speaker 1: actually went around that city a little bit. It's pretty
Speaker 1: cool it. I liked it. Man, it's kind of very
Speaker 1: cool there, and uh, the city itself seemed really bustly
Speaker 1: at the time. I'm sure it's dead now. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: it's technology. It's good for partying though another way, that's
Speaker 1: what I That's why I was so excited that my
Speaker 1: daughter was spending time their liners. Thanks. You should definitely
Speaker 1: stop when you do your tour through Europe. We're going to,
Speaker 1: We're going to, We're going we should come there. Are
Speaker 1: we big in Hamburg? Yeah? We're big in ham Are
Speaker 1: you in Germany? You are huge? We're very big in Germany.
Speaker 1: You didn't know that you knew that though, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'd just like to hear it every now and all right,
Speaker 1: that way, we're definitely gonna be doing. Yeah, Bill, you're
Speaker 1: gonna come. You're gonna come on the tour for some dates, Bill,
Speaker 1: we can't. Yeah, yeah, jacking the whole tour. I got
Speaker 1: a but I have to be treated like a spec
Speaker 1: special guest or Yeah. I think when we do major cities,
Speaker 1: like you know, like like Hamburg, Yeah, like I love
Speaker 1: that one, it's just casually said like Hamburg, Yeah it happened.
Speaker 1: When we do like Bumble Fuck, you're gonna come. But
Speaker 1: when we do like New York, ham Berg, La Stod,
Speaker 1: you're gonna come. Dodd's not as big for me. So
Speaker 1: why here's my question? We we because of Sarah Chalk.
Speaker 1: We put a lot of German on the show. He
Speaker 1: did she speak it well? And be did those guys
Speaker 1: we hired to be Germans speak it well? Because I
Speaker 1: didn't think they spoke it well, and I thought she
Speaker 1: spoke it quite well. Sara's doing well. But I think
Speaker 1: you mean the guys from this from this season, right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: they would They don't even speak quite all. Yeah that
Speaker 1: was in on Scrubs WICKI they said that that Sarah's
Speaker 1: German was better than the actors playing Germans. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think Sarah's fluent. Yeah's amazing. She's has such a gift
Speaker 1: for language. I mean, she didn't just flu and she
Speaker 1: like has the perfect accent in both with both French
Speaker 1: and German. Well, we made fun about Sarah a lot
Speaker 1: because coming out of a young American woman, it's not
Speaker 1: the most romantic, sexy language here and anyways in the
Speaker 1: United States, since she would often say things in uh
Speaker 1: in German that would uh sound aggressive and frightening to
Speaker 1: us when she's not that personal at all. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: so aggressive. Yes, it's it's also because it's also be
Speaker 1: cause Sarah's eyes would get so big when she talks
Speaker 1: when she speaks German. Well, she gotta know what, she
Speaker 1: just gets like it becomes cartoonishly big, and she's like,
Speaker 1: like she gets real aggressive. Well, she would also she
Speaker 1: was also usually switching from French, which was so sexy
Speaker 1: and slow, and then she'd like she was exaggerating for effect.
Speaker 1: Let's be I know, but she's a comedic genius. Linus,
Speaker 1: thank you for coming on the show. Do you have
Speaker 1: a question for Yes, legendary Bill Lawrence. We're so happy
Speaker 1: you're here. Thanks for having me. Yes, I do have
Speaker 1: a question. I was wondering, if you do a scene
Speaker 1: which is really emotional, is it easy for you to
Speaker 1: switch the buttons and maybe you've been very angry, or
Speaker 1: maybe you've been very sad, is it easy for you
Speaker 1: to come back and be the normal you again? Because
Speaker 1: the background of this question is when you do fake laughing,
Speaker 1: I know, for instance, that you just get happy even
Speaker 1: with just faking the laugh Is it the same when
Speaker 1: you have a very sad scene. That's one that's a
Speaker 1: That's a great question. It's a great question. I know
Speaker 1: somebody who had. When I was younger, I would grew
Speaker 1: up in theater, and so my parents used to make
Speaker 1: me have to sit and watch and sometimes and I
Speaker 1: would be backstage with a lot of the actors too,
Speaker 1: and so sometimes you would see things that you wouldn't
Speaker 1: necessarily that you shouldn't as a as a kid, that
Speaker 1: you shouldn't necessarily see. Like I was, I got to
Speaker 1: see a person literally have a nervous breakdown because of
Speaker 1: the character he was playing on stage, and the person
Speaker 1: had to go through this emotional journey on stage, and
Speaker 1: when he got off a stage, he couldn't turn it
Speaker 1: off and he had a breakdown, and that's an emotional breakdown.
Speaker 1: For me, it's very difficult. Like I sometimes cry even
Speaker 1: after they stay cut. I'll continue to cry unless I
Speaker 1: gotta go, unless we gotta go again, and then I
Speaker 1: try and stop it as hard as I can so
Speaker 1: I can get back to that moment again, because once
Speaker 1: I've released everything, it's hard for me to get back
Speaker 1: to that moment again. That's me personally for me. Every actor,
Speaker 1: I think we would probably answer it the question differently. Line.
Speaker 1: Some people can just turn on emotion really quickly. They're
Speaker 1: like getting a second and they're there other actors. For me,
Speaker 1: if I was it would be hard for me to
Speaker 1: be doing being super silly and then try and go
Speaker 1: switch and do an emotional scene. If I know I've
Speaker 1: got a big emotional scene, I kind of try and
Speaker 1: spend the day or at least the time on set
Speaker 1: in in that space of seriousness or emotion, just because
Speaker 1: it's for me. It's almost impossible. If we're all joking
Speaker 1: around and we're laughing and we're being like we are
Speaker 1: on this podcast and they're like, okay, we're rolling here
Speaker 1: we go. Uh, that's that's almost impossible. For me. But
Speaker 1: there's there are actors who can who can, who can
Speaker 1: do that and actually do it believably, But that's that's
Speaker 1: never been me. Well, I can do it believably at
Speaker 1: any time. I'm that good an actor and that what no,
Speaker 1: you know, I'll tell you some interesting that Zack McDonald
Speaker 1: m leffort. So why I was, these guys are amazing performers,
Speaker 1: and you stumbled onto the thing that was very made
Speaker 1: it very hard to sell the show in the first place,
Speaker 1: which was when I was off trying to sell Scrubs
Speaker 1: and describing it to different networks. The sheer amount of
Speaker 1: people that said network presence said, I'm not sure you
Speaker 1: can switch from broad silly fantasies and people goofing around
Speaker 1: to really deeply emotional scenes with people facing you know,
Speaker 1: death and and introspective and emotional pathos. And I was,
Speaker 1: you know, an idiot, and I joked about it and
Speaker 1: would say like, yeah, I think you can. I think
Speaker 1: you just turned down the lights and play an indie
Speaker 1: song and and U. But the truth was it only
Speaker 1: worked because the actors and actresses were able to do it.
Speaker 1: And if you're a fan of the show, I bet
Speaker 1: you can remember a moment that every single of course
Speaker 1: was Zack and Donald, but every actor and actress on
Speaker 1: the cast having a time that they had to switch
Speaker 1: gears immediately and be so emotional that you didn't usually
Speaker 1: see that in the comedy. So it worked because of
Speaker 1: the performers. I was talking to somebody randomly about this.
Speaker 1: Even watching Neil Flynn say Sarah Shawk's name Elliott when
Speaker 1: he tricked her into a date, you know, is such
Speaker 1: an emotional moment, you know, and so real that even
Speaker 1: he could do it, and the show would not have
Speaker 1: worked if Donald, Zach, Sarah, Judy Ken, johnny Ce, Neil,
Speaker 1: everybody were able to switch on a din that also,
Speaker 1: and also one other thing, sometimes you're in his own dude.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's like any sports thing. Sometimes you come to
Speaker 1: work and you're something's asked of you, like that to
Speaker 1: laugh and then go into crying and then come back
Speaker 1: into laughter again. And sometimes you can. Sometimes you can
Speaker 1: tap into that, no problem, and then sometimes you can't.
Speaker 1: That's just how it is. That's that's a very tricky thing.
Speaker 1: Is a director is that sometimes so as you know,
Speaker 1: as as everyone listening knows, a scene is comprised of
Speaker 1: many different shots, and and an actor has an emotional scene,
Speaker 1: you have to know that if it's a big scene,
Speaker 1: they spent the better part of a day staying in
Speaker 1: that space, in that headspace. Often, let's say we're in
Speaker 1: the first shot. It's a very wide shot of the
Speaker 1: room and they and the actor is emotional and they cry. Well,
Speaker 1: and now when I get to your close up and
Speaker 1: it's seven o'clock at night, and we've been doing it
Speaker 1: all day long and the actor's tears aren't flowing anymore, Well,
Speaker 1: none of the other stuff will work because of continuity. Won't.
Speaker 1: It won't it won't edit together. So it's it's a
Speaker 1: it's a very tricky thing for both a director and
Speaker 1: an actor because you don't just have to do it once.
Speaker 1: You have to sort of sustain it for the whole scene.
Speaker 1: If if the actor is indeed crying, they have to
Speaker 1: do it every single time. Otherwise, you know, obviously this
Speaker 1: moment where people swipe away their tears, and you can
Speaker 1: use a shot like that. But but there's been times
Speaker 1: where I've edited things and someone does something so beautiful
Speaker 1: and they and they cried it was the master wide shot.
Speaker 1: And then you're going for close up and they kind
Speaker 1: of like that that was what they had. They can't
Speaker 1: they can't sort of muster it again. Well, you can't
Speaker 1: use that beautiful wide shot and really anymore because it
Speaker 1: won't It doesn't make any I have a question, how come,
Speaker 1: how come do you don't reverse engineer those scenes then
Speaker 1: and do them backwards. You can do, but that's that's
Speaker 1: a very good question. You at people say they're they're
Speaker 1: a plus effort for the close stuff. The smart the
Speaker 1: smart thing to do, if you're someone who knows you
Speaker 1: only have so much gas in the tank is to
Speaker 1: is to wait until the camera's tight on you, and
Speaker 1: that will make the most difference. If you guys, remember
Speaker 1: on scrubs, I would often cheat and I would cut
Speaker 1: short the master before you got to the heavy emotional stuff,
Speaker 1: so you know you didn't have to do it. You
Speaker 1: guys ever, remember going through that, I would just do, Hey,
Speaker 1: the master only works till here and here, so let's
Speaker 1: stop it. Yeah, absolutely definitely. The other thing you can
Speaker 1: do is is is roll two cameras, sometimes one tight
Speaker 1: and one wide. But but it's tricky and of course,
Speaker 1: worst case scenario. By the way, we usually the worst
Speaker 1: case scenario is there's a there's literally a mental thing.
Speaker 1: They blow in your eyes and it makes them tear.
Speaker 1: But now, my girlfriend I were watching TV and we
Speaker 1: saw the first, our first CGI tier. We both stopped
Speaker 1: and we were like, there's no way that's a real
Speaker 1: tier because it was so perfectly timed and beautiful and
Speaker 1: rolling down a cheek and really impossible. And I was
Speaker 1: just on a job that has a lot of special
Speaker 1: effects on it. And I turned to the guy, go
Speaker 1: by the way, I think I just saw my first
Speaker 1: CGI tier going down a cheek. Is that a thing now?
Speaker 1: And he's like, oh, yeah, we're out and loss of tears.
Speaker 1: I that Hey, whas did you ask? Because you're a performer.
Speaker 1: It's an interesting question. No, I just I was just wondering.
Speaker 1: I'm just a student. Okay, cool question. What do you
Speaker 1: do out in Hamburg? My friend? Yeah, I'm as study
Speaker 1: for business administration? Okay, So is that is that where
Speaker 1: you're from? Are you from? Hamburger? Is just where you
Speaker 1: go to Universe? I'm from Bill. This is not your
Speaker 1: audition to lead the podcast, okay, j Jack, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to hear you. Someone all the way and is so
Speaker 1: very aproposed everybody knows. As I said that Zach got
Speaker 1: tangled up in his heart that almost collapsed. Zach had
Speaker 1: a beautiful JD moment and got tangled in his own
Speaker 1: headset cord. All right, line is it's time for everyone
Speaker 1: on our favorite moment in the podcast, Ready Daniel with
Speaker 1: the queue, it's time to fix How can we help you?
Speaker 1: All the way from all the way from Hollywood to Hamburg,
Speaker 1: We're gonna send this fix it. So it's kind of
Speaker 1: have you. Me and my long term girlfriend, we just
Speaker 1: broke up and it was the first real love for
Speaker 1: both of us, so I think something really special, and
Speaker 1: I should mention that we just grew apart. There was
Speaker 1: no bad blood at all. I wish you the best,
Speaker 1: but still it's quite hard. Of course, my friends and
Speaker 1: my family they try to help me as good as
Speaker 1: they can because the pandemic is, yeah, affecting all of us.
Speaker 1: But I do still feel a little bit lost, if
Speaker 1: you can say that right now, because you can't make
Speaker 1: any big plans at all. You can't plan any vacations
Speaker 1: or go to the cinema or the theaters at the moment.
Speaker 1: So it's quite a rough time and I would like
Speaker 1: to ask for an advice what I should do or
Speaker 1: how you get over your first real love of heart break.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go first. I'm gonna go first. The first
Speaker 1: thing I can tell you that I find is the
Speaker 1: most helpful thing, and not even related to your breakup,
Speaker 1: but to life right now, is that you are not alone.
Speaker 1: Everybody is going through as we said on the podcast,
Speaker 1: as my mom when we used to tell me when
Speaker 1: I was a kid, if if you weren't feeling these feelings,
Speaker 1: there'd be something wrong with you. This is such a
Speaker 1: weird time, and so many people are break up aside
Speaker 1: are dealing with how do I get over this this melancholia?
Speaker 1: How do I can't go to the movies, I can't
Speaker 1: go hug my parents like so, I think that there's
Speaker 1: there's comfort in knowing that you're that you're not alone.
Speaker 1: So many people are are going through this, and and
Speaker 1: of course a breakup makes it so much worse. I
Speaker 1: think a lot of people I've i've I've read a
Speaker 1: lot of people are are going through, you know, relationship problems.
Speaker 1: Because of course it's so unnatural. All of a sudden,
Speaker 1: we're forced to quarantine, and there's everyone's stressed and so
Speaker 1: we can all give you our best tips on on
Speaker 1: on getting over lost love. I think you know, no
Speaker 1: matter what anyone has ever told me in a breakup,
Speaker 1: time has has been the only thing. And you're gonna
Speaker 1: hear that over and again. It doesn't really help. But
Speaker 1: but know that it that it does. You will look
Speaker 1: back when you're in when you're in your new relationship
Speaker 1: and you're newly excited and giddy and feeling so happy,
Speaker 1: you'll look back and go, oh my god, I can't
Speaker 1: believe this one's even better. I can't believe that I'm
Speaker 1: that I you know, thank thank god that ended, because
Speaker 1: even though it was sad at the time, it led
Speaker 1: me to this person who's so much better. So I
Speaker 1: know that that's that's that's that doesn't hurt help right now,
Speaker 1: But I think that's that's something you should at least
Speaker 1: have in your brain now. There's a reason that all
Speaker 1: almost every a giant percentage of music is written about
Speaker 1: this topic is because it's it hurts so bad and
Speaker 1: and was it gonna say, Zach, it's such a good point,
Speaker 1: by the way, is part of the thing that's gonna
Speaker 1: make this fun is at the end and you don't
Speaker 1: have to do it out loud. You're gonna have to
Speaker 1: email us. You're gonna have to say whose advice was
Speaker 1: the best. So it's a kind of Mine's probably only
Speaker 1: build Lawrence, the most competitive mofo in the world, will
Speaker 1: turn giving lineus advice into a front. Do you not
Speaker 1: see Line is smiling. He's enjoying this. Go ahead, boss,
Speaker 1: fucking make it better? All right? So well, it don't
Speaker 1: feel weird about knowing that my advice is gonna be
Speaker 1: the best the uh No, Like zach'son, something's very smart,
Speaker 1: which is hard for me to say. Every show I've
Speaker 1: ever written has constant episodes about lost love and heartbreak
Speaker 1: because it's so universal and because it's the building block
Speaker 1: for who we are. Right, So I will tell you
Speaker 1: you know these guys said, it is true. It's all
Speaker 1: learning experience. It will make you better and stronger for
Speaker 1: the next relationship you enter in. But I'm going to
Speaker 1: say to you the one thing that a friend of
Speaker 1: mine who's a shrink said to me recently, which is
Speaker 1: just remember, because of where we are is a quarantine
Speaker 1: and a pandemic, that none of this is a real
Speaker 1: playing field. None of this is real in terms of
Speaker 1: loneliness amplified by a thousand, depression amplified by a thousand,
Speaker 1: hopelessness amplified by a thousand. So the one piece of
Speaker 1: advice I'd give you, I'm a type of person that
Speaker 1: I need to have something to look forward to. And
Speaker 1: I call the real j D all the time to
Speaker 1: ask about where we are in the pandemic. And he's
Speaker 1: a guy that we all know, and he said, there's
Speaker 1: three vaccines, all with over ninety percent efficacy, all that
Speaker 1: are coming down the pipe. So even if you're a pessimist,
Speaker 1: you're six months away from being in a real environment
Speaker 1: where none of these feelings will be amplified by a thousand.
Speaker 1: So all I would tell you is look for that
Speaker 1: light at the end of the tunnel man, and the
Speaker 1: stuff will all seem a lot clear. But it sucks.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it sucks. And you know what, the thing
Speaker 1: you can do? What can you do proactively? Reach out
Speaker 1: to friends. Don't don't become a hermit that's like in
Speaker 1: their fetal position in your bed. Like reach out to
Speaker 1: your friends, face time with your friends, going on national podcasts,
Speaker 1: sometimes going on international podcast is a huge help. I
Speaker 1: agree with Bill I like to do. Give myself things
Speaker 1: to look forward to, even if it's little things like
Speaker 1: like my girlfriend and I'll be like tonight, we're getting
Speaker 1: sushi and we're gonna eat a tubbot ice cream. Like
Speaker 1: even if it's like stupid you and your girlfriend do that.
Speaker 1: Don't be a dick, I'm saying he can do. I
Speaker 1: mean you just be a little bit sensitive man. You're
Speaker 1: talking about you. Yeah, I mean that's the type of
Speaker 1: thing that somebody that gives the third best advice says,
Speaker 1: right wild, you know when you know that, you know that,
Speaker 1: you know when you know when Homer squeezes Bart's neck.
Speaker 1: That's what I lions. Give your little give yourself things
Speaker 1: that are even if they're small, that you know you
Speaker 1: look forward to, and don't watch there's so much sad
Speaker 1: shit on TV, like we I got lost in a
Speaker 1: true crime wormhole, watching like all this true crime and
Speaker 1: dark shit. Find stuff that's that's that's funny and that
Speaker 1: will cheer you up. Maybe maybe something British, maybe something
Speaker 1: with like an internet big hits very sure, but Scrubs
Speaker 1: or or I haven't gotten the ship squeak, but people
Speaker 1: love that, like something that just lift your spirits and
Speaker 1: make you laugh even if you're down. Also the Mandalorian
Speaker 1: or the Mandalorian, sure, the Mandalorian journal. When I'm down,
Speaker 1: journaling helps me just like like we you've heard me
Speaker 1: say this before, Like in college, we called it a
Speaker 1: brain drain, and we just write, just without taking the
Speaker 1: pen off the paper everything you're thinking, like in this
Speaker 1: and this and this, and even if a sentence is
Speaker 1: like and I don't know what to write now, I
Speaker 1: don't know what to write now, but then you just
Speaker 1: keep writing and do that for like five minutes a minimum.
Speaker 1: And I will tell you alone, I've seen except Daniel,
Speaker 1: who I'm just getting to know, I've seen the other
Speaker 1: two guys, both heartbroken at different states, and I can't
Speaker 1: even revisit it because they're both so happy where they
Speaker 1: are now. And I promise you that they were both
Speaker 1: as heartbroken as you yourself are. Now. That's the best.
Speaker 1: Best By the way, you did win, Bill, you did,
Speaker 1: you did win. That's a great point. This man has
Speaker 1: helped me through Ben Donald, through bad breakups in our
Speaker 1: life when we were just where you're at, Dude, I
Speaker 1: got divorced while we were making scrubs, and now we're
Speaker 1: now we're both in relationships that we've never been happier.
Speaker 1: So one of the best parties I was ever at
Speaker 1: Linas and he'll tell you about it when he's on
Speaker 1: Here was John McGinley announced to everybody on Scrubs at
Speaker 1: the beginning that he would never ever, ever, ever ever
Speaker 1: be in a committed relationship and get married ever again.
Speaker 1: And so I met him ten thousand dollars in front
Speaker 1: of everybody that he would be married again before the
Speaker 1: end of the show. And I didn't take the money
Speaker 1: from him, but I used it to pay for his
Speaker 1: engagement party. It could not have been more follow Yeah, yeah,

Speaker 1: inside jokes. So I want to know, Line's right off
Speaker 1: the top of your head, without giving too much thought,
Speaker 1: what's one of your favorite quotes? I know what it is.
Speaker 1: I can't. I know what it is. Line is because
Speaker 1: of Julian. Is there a manateee under there? I think
Speaker 1: is there some sort of underground tunnel system? I think
Speaker 1: I saw a manatee. Was his name Julian? I don't know.
Speaker 1: We didn't exchange pleasantries. That's Julian alright, Thanks so many,
Speaker 1: Thank you guys, Thanksgiving for you to thank Thanks very much.
Speaker 1: Hamburg is a rock star city. It was so fun there.
Speaker 1: The food was great. I feel him though, because I'm
Speaker 1: going through a breakup during quarantine and COVID and everyone. No.
Speaker 1: I know, I know he's going to be fine, dude,
Speaker 1: but you know we've all been there. Imagine doing it
Speaker 1: during during I mean, I'm sure a lot of people
Speaker 1: listening are going through it during quarantine, a breakup, and
Speaker 1: it's like a double punch of the faith. Hey, I
Speaker 1: got another I got another good uh news break for
Speaker 1: you because then you two can decide. So everybody's really busy.
Speaker 1: A lot of charities have nicely asked if and everybody's
Speaker 1: been doing different charitable stuff. I think is cool and awesome,
Speaker 1: but a couple of charities nicely asked if we would
Speaker 1: ever do it scrubs table read. You guys want me
Speaker 1: to try and rally the troops and we'll do it. Sure,
Speaker 1: let's do it. What what what script would we read?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Look, I do know it has to
Speaker 1: be one with my wife in it, or I'm not
Speaker 1: going to be allowed to do it. Oh, Bill, while
Speaker 1: we have you on the spot, Yeah, can you help
Speaker 1: us get Mike Fox for one of his episodes? Uh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He's promoting a book. Tell
Speaker 1: him this has a huge audience and will promote his book.
Speaker 1: Let me email Mike today. He's such a man, He's
Speaker 1: such a lovely dude. And I had to do some
Speaker 1: stuff for his book, you know, just because I'm vet.
Speaker 1: Some stuff because a couple of chapters on our Spin
Speaker 1: City Days. And by the way, this new book has
Speaker 1: a couple of chapters on his Scrubs guest appear. I mean, well,
Speaker 1: he's got two episodes coming up, it's three twelve and
Speaker 1: three thirteen, and he would love to have him. If
Speaker 1: you can pull any strings, if, if, if, if I
Speaker 1: make it happen, I expect I want to deal right now.
Speaker 1: You say, Mike, welcome to our and Bill's podcast. Even
Speaker 1: if I'm not on it. You got it, you got it,
Speaker 1: I'll say, I'll literally to get Mike Fox, I would
Speaker 1: say whatever you want me to say. It would be
Speaker 1: such an honor and and I know we just semi
Speaker 1: convenient because he's promoting a book and this has an
Speaker 1: enormous audience. That is, he's a he's a big look.
Speaker 1: There's it's weird to say we're like this, we're not,
Speaker 1: you know, too self involved, and which we say, like
Speaker 1: an act I don't, but I'm too, But it's I
Speaker 1: didn't mean anything that I said, but the he's an
Speaker 1: actor that I truly think is an American icon and
Speaker 1: a hero for all the stuff he's been doing. Such
Speaker 1: a great dude. So I mean, we would have to
Speaker 1: make it like a two hour episode because we would
Speaker 1: just be like, fuck scrubs, dude, let's just talk about
Speaker 1: every single thing. We would talk. I would talk about
Speaker 1: Back to the Future for like an hour and a half.
Speaker 1: I talk about how Eric Stultz had the freaking you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, I would he by the way, all right
Speaker 1: right now, me doing to me saying that right now,
Speaker 1: He's probably like, I'm not going on the show, so
Speaker 1: let me not. I'm not. I wouldn't do that. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't do that. I imagine this because you guys went
Speaker 1: through it. The only way he could do Back to
Speaker 1: the Future was to shoot it concurrently with Family Ties,
Speaker 1: So he would shoot back to the Future at night
Speaker 1: and Family Ties during the day, which is banana pa
Speaker 1: what about? Yes, but he but he he did most
Speaker 1: of the season from what I remember, he did most
Speaker 1: of the season for Family Ties because he was the
Speaker 1: original choice that Zamkis wanted for Back to the Future,
Speaker 1: but he couldn't do it because he was doing Family Ties.
Speaker 1: And then when Stultz fell out at the when Stultz
Speaker 1: fell out and they knew they were getting him back,
Speaker 1: it was because of your old mentor Gary goldberga happening.
Speaker 1: He was friends with those guys there. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: well Bill, will you please try it? Are you writing
Speaker 1: it on a posted because you're gonna I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: do it. I'm just gonna do it and I'll have
Speaker 1: it all right? Yeah, Okay? Are you fake writing it
Speaker 1: on a posted? For all I know you're fake writing it?
Speaker 1: Are you fake writing right now? No? I just wrote
Speaker 1: Mike Fox email IM an email anyways, man, I miss
Speaker 1: that guy. Thank you. All right, let's let's finish the
Speaker 1: app because we've gone an hour and a half. And
Speaker 1: we have Okay, I just want to stay shout out
Speaker 1: Mike Starr, who was on this who was in this episode.
Speaker 1: He was the patient that Johnny had. When I first
Speaker 1: got Clueless, me and Justin Walker were flying to LA
Speaker 1: and we were in first class and I just remember
Speaker 1: waking up and Mike Starr was handing the bagels. And
Speaker 1: he was one of the first people I met before
Speaker 1: I got to Hollywood. We never, you know, we talked
Speaker 1: about hanging out because we were going to do the
Speaker 1: movie Clueless, and somehow Justin had who played Christian in
Speaker 1: the movie, had struck up a conversation with him and
Speaker 1: told him that we were in this television show. So
Speaker 1: I woke up and he's like, hey, kid, do you
Speaker 1: want a bagel? And I was like, absolutely, I want
Speaker 1: a bagel. Holy shit, you're the guy from Dumb and Dummer,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And I don't even think yeah,
Speaker 1: Dumb and Dummer had come out already, so I I, uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's one of the best. He's been in so many things,
Speaker 1: and he's such a talented actor, and I forgot that
Speaker 1: he was on Scrubs and so I just want to
Speaker 1: give him a big shout out and a Hello Mike
Speaker 1: Star because it was a pleasure to see you on Scrubs.
Speaker 1: And I don't know why, but you guys made me
Speaker 1: watch this episode, and any episode that has Sam Lloyd
Speaker 1: being sweet in it both makes me sad and miss him.
Speaker 1: He was so sweet in this episode. I know, I know,
Speaker 1: I didn't. Yeah, yeah, he was so funny in this episode.
Speaker 1: So we have the thirty eight year old virgin and
Speaker 1: and we talked about that a bit, but it's funny
Speaker 1: when Sarah, Sarah is so fucking funny in this episode.
Speaker 1: She goes, he goes, she goes, I'm a virgin, and
Speaker 1: Sarah goes, me too. Sorry. That's a reflex from college
Speaker 1: when I used to play tambourine in a Christian Rocks.
Speaker 1: The writing, the writing and delivery of Elliott and this
Speaker 1: episode is so fucking funny. Then she does her O face.
Speaker 1: We got a glimpse of what Elliott looks like when
Speaker 1: she's having an orgasm. And she said the three of
Speaker 1: three people in her high school because that picture got out,
Speaker 1: they posed like that for their you book photos. Man,
Speaker 1: I love watching I literally, Sarah's so funny. Don't you
Speaker 1: guys love that? To watch this show again when for me,
Speaker 1: I'm old enough to have forgotten it now it's so funny.
Speaker 1: Of course we don't remember it all. And I and
Speaker 1: Donald and I've said multiple times that we that we
Speaker 1: knew Sarah was funny in particular when we were doing it,
Speaker 1: but in watching it back this many years later, I'm
Speaker 1: I just am really appreciating how fucking hilarious of a
Speaker 1: comedic actors she is. Not just that, not just that,
Speaker 1: but Bill, I'm gonna be you know, the story Johnny
Speaker 1: C's storyline is so necessary. Like I used to think
Speaker 1: that Zach, Sarah and I that's the go to. Johnny's
Speaker 1: the go to man. Johnny's life is my life now
Speaker 1: pretty much, you know what I mean. Like everything that
Speaker 1: Johnny goes through in this episode, Cox goes through in
Speaker 1: this series like I'm going through now, and so I
Speaker 1: relate to his character more than I relate to the
Speaker 1: character I played on the show. That's the crazy thing. Man,
Speaker 1: It's like life has changed so much, you know, So
Speaker 1: when rewatching it now, it's like I was so caught
Speaker 1: up in what we were doing because I thought we
Speaker 1: were to hip kids and stuff like that. Johnny's story
Speaker 1: is really it really does carry a lot. That's so
Speaker 1: sad for me is that I identify with Ken. Sometimes
Speaker 1: it's hard because it's hard to be a boss. In
Speaker 1: my favorite episodes involving Ken Jenkins, where when he made
Speaker 1: you know that it's hard to be a boss and
Speaker 1: that he's probably a sweet guy underneath all that crap.
Speaker 1: You know, was it like that when you were writing
Speaker 1: it or is it like that now? As you like
Speaker 1: that now? Man? When I look at you know, I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: I'm an old, crusty dude. People sometimes think is a
Speaker 1: you know, closed off control freak at work, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: it's tough to be a boss. Sometimes it is. Woe
Speaker 1: is me whatever. I laughed out loud at powerful tiny fists,
Speaker 1: Powerful tiny fists. Yes, it's like powerful tiny fists. Yeah,
Speaker 1: come back from a fantasy when Randall has punched me
Speaker 1: in the nuts for a second time. I really liked
Speaker 1: that song spreading around and saving ted. That was great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was. I was a little upset that Kelso was
Speaker 1: bummed out by it. Yeah, that kind of struck me
Speaker 1: when he called my chicken. Yeah, I wrote down that
Speaker 1: Kelso is kind of evil. Well, the Cavalier attitude towards that.
Speaker 1: You know, it's our favorite jokes to write, and I
Speaker 1: thought that was one that was a mistake where one
Speaker 1: that walked that line between inappropriate and okay and ted
Speaker 1: was obviously somebody depressed. And maybe I'm hypersensitive to it now,
Speaker 1: like but all I love the joke. And if you
Speaker 1: guys remember our favorite joke on h was in Sam's briefcase.
Speaker 1: All he had was his briefcase. All he had was
Speaker 1: a a button with a happy face and a loaded
Speaker 1: revolver and ones in case I get sad and the
Speaker 1: others in case I get real sad. But that is
Speaker 1: it's clever enough and fucking the lot is that in
Speaker 1: the show. I didn't know. I don't think. I don't
Speaker 1: think we would. You would likely do some of these
Speaker 1: more cavalier suicide jokes today. I mean Kelso we wanted
Speaker 1: to have him have a little bit of heart. No,
Speaker 1: I would not call him a chicken for not jumper. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we it was the joke guy. Who look, you guys
Speaker 1: probably do this with your performances. When I watched these shows,
Speaker 1: the painful parties you watch at the things that you
Speaker 1: would never do now, I would make a lot of stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, let's switch topics. J C M. Johnny c
Speaker 1: McGinley is fucking ripped in the gym. I mean, I
Speaker 1: know he listens while he's working out. So Johnny, keep going. Man,
Speaker 1: you look like a stud in this episode. John look beefy.
Speaker 1: That's a that's you know what he knows. You don't
Speaker 1: need to make him feel better about it. Donald, you go,
Speaker 1: I don't disdain you, idain you. That's funny. That's a
Speaker 1: funny T shirt. Scott Rabbidou in the background, now a
Speaker 1: funny my stand in. Scott Rabbidou is in the background
Speaker 1: of the gym. Bill, am I correct in that? You
Speaker 1: you you had these set dressers, production designers build the
Speaker 1: gym set and then told him to leave it up
Speaker 1: so we would have a gym. Yeah, and we moved down.
Speaker 1: It's a way to get a gym for the because
Speaker 1: we lived in that stupid hospital for the brew staff,
Speaker 1: actors whatever. We all would any previous any previous gym
Speaker 1: scenes were in a small room. This was the first
Speaker 1: time Bill said, no, let's move the gym to the
Speaker 1: basement and make it big and then also leave all
Speaker 1: the shit in there. Yeah, let's charge Disney for cleaning
Speaker 1: up the basement, putting a ton of gym equipment in there,
Speaker 1: maybe a stereo system of some kind, and then say,
Speaker 1: we plan to use that set a lot, and then
Speaker 1: we can all exercise in between launch breaks and when
Speaker 1: we're sitting around doing I wouldn't even work out there
Speaker 1: when we were when we were dark, when we weren't working,
Speaker 1: I would come. I would. It was the closest. It
Speaker 1: was the closest nice gym to me. I would just
Speaker 1: it's one of the best completely free gyms. And Wells angels. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the best free gym that you'll be alone in in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles. Todd with his giant green balls and the
Speaker 1: gym was funny. Sure. I think that was a Maschio
Speaker 1: ad lib once he saw the props that were available
Speaker 1: to it. So moving in is a big topic in
Speaker 1: this episode. Jad's very worried that Danny's slow. Everyone's teasing him,
Speaker 1: and he's also concerned that she's slowly going to try
Speaker 1: and move in. That's always weird, right when you're in
Speaker 1: a relationship and you're kind of dancing around the They
Speaker 1: start with a toothbrush and then there's a few things
Speaker 1: and then there's the conversation like, well why am I
Speaker 1: paying rent? It's like, you know, it was that a
Speaker 1: little dance. I didn't. I had a completely different experience
Speaker 1: than you had, obviously when it comes to moving in.
Speaker 1: I was tricked by my wife. My wife told me.
Speaker 1: My wife told me she was never gonna get married.
Speaker 1: She didn't want to get married, and she didn't want
Speaker 1: to have kids, and she was an independent woman and
Speaker 1: she would always live on her own. And I was like,
Speaker 1: oh shit, well bet come, that's start dating. That's the
Speaker 1: type of woman I want a date, right, I like,
Speaker 1: it is a true story. You guys both know that
Speaker 1: my wife beats me in every couple battle, every mental battle,
Speaker 1: every you know, she decides what I do. She didn't
Speaker 1: charge everything in my life. The only victory I ever
Speaker 1: had was when I left New York because you know,
Speaker 1: I fell in love with her and I was running
Speaker 1: the show in New York Spin City and I realized
Speaker 1: and she had to work. She was in La, you know,
Speaker 1: on the Juke Carrey show. I'm like, man, if I
Speaker 1: don't move to LA, you can't do that long distance thing.
Speaker 1: For years. I can't. You know, this relations and ship's
Speaker 1: gonna end. So I moved to LA. I said, I'm
Speaker 1: moving back to LA and Christa said, you know, you're
Speaker 1: not moving in with me? And I'm like, oh, cool, whatever.
Speaker 1: And when I came and visited once, she showed me
Speaker 1: this cool house she was building up in Nichols Canyon.
Speaker 1: I remember going, oh, this is gonna be a perfect
Speaker 1: place for me to live. So but she's like, you're
Speaker 1: not moving in with me? And then I told her,
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, I don't want to. I'm gonna rent
Speaker 1: kind of like a party place at the beach in Malibu.
Speaker 1: And she's like, by yourself, you know. I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it with Rob mas There's a friend
Speaker 1: of mine. Gets better. And then I saw Rob Mashio
Speaker 1: like two nights after that, I go, hey, I told
Speaker 1: Christa Miller, this woman i'm dating that you and I
Speaker 1: are getting when I moved back to LA, that you
Speaker 1: and I are getting a house on the beach and Malibu,
Speaker 1: that I'm paying for it, but we're gonna live together
Speaker 1: and have lots of parties. He goes, are we I
Speaker 1: said no, no, as if we're not at all, But
Speaker 1: you have to know that we are in case you
Speaker 1: see her and uh. And then when I got to La,
Speaker 1: she's like, you shouldn't have a party house at the beach.
Speaker 1: She should just crash here in my new house. I
Speaker 1: was like, all right, my only victory is that the
Speaker 1: house we did the table read at. That's the house
Speaker 1: you did the table read at. That's my only victory
Speaker 1: as an adult male with my now wife of twenty something.
Speaker 1: I built that house. Yeah, I thought I had one
Speaker 1: when my wife had said that to me, that she
Speaker 1: didn't want to have kids or getting married or lived together.
Speaker 1: And she was an independent woman. But I found myself
Speaker 1: begging her. Yeah, two years later, please just let me
Speaker 1: just live. Let's just live together. Why can't we live together?
Speaker 1: I don't understand why you're not living here? Like she
Speaker 1: played me like a fiddle. Yeah, man, you're not. By
Speaker 1: the way, when Chris is on here again, and she
Speaker 1: will be, I'm sure she'll tell you the reality of
Speaker 1: the story I told and why it was all plotted
Speaker 1: and planned. Yeah, Oh, she played you like it. Oh
Speaker 1: got it? You know, I'm sure I feel like my
Speaker 1: only victory, don't get me wrong. When we lived there,
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, I have a favorite ouch nope,
Speaker 1: I have a favorite chair. Like what about this fork?
Speaker 1: Did I bring this fork to our new house? Now?
Speaker 1: Those forks don't work? Like all right. That's always funny too,
Speaker 1: when you when when you move in with your girl
Speaker 1: or your guy, and all of a sudden, if you're
Speaker 1: the person who's house it is, and they start going,
Speaker 1: so what's the deal with that painting? And you're like
Speaker 1: that that master that masterpiece? Yeah? So like when where
Speaker 1: else could that go? You're like, what something that can go?
Speaker 1: Like in your office? If you have an office? Could
Speaker 1: I go there? What? Yeah? That's always tough. I was, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was still building renovating my house when Florence and
Speaker 1: I started dating, and and she was so tactfully way
Speaker 1: in on things. I mean, granted she was she was
Speaker 1: clearly new. It was a sensitive thing. And she'd be like,
Speaker 1: is that the tile for the for the bathroom. I'd
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, why you don't like it?
Speaker 1: She no, no, no, no, it's great, great right right,
Speaker 1: so passive aggressive. I moved in a Chris's house and
Speaker 1: we got engaged like seven months later, It's true story.
Speaker 1: And as a gift, she turned an extra room in
Speaker 1: that house into an office for me for about two months,
Speaker 1: and then she's like, I'm pregnant, and the very same
Speaker 1: workers that had gone in and put office stuff in
Speaker 1: there came in sixty days later and ripped it out
Speaker 1: and turned it into a nursery. Did you write scrubs
Speaker 1: in that office? I didn't. I didn't have it long enough. Man.
Speaker 1: It reminds me of one of my favorite movies, Brewster's Millions.
Speaker 1: Great movie Millions. That movie should be remade. But I
Speaker 1: don't know if you. I mean John knutcha prior you
Speaker 1: can't touch him to Gold. I love. One of the
Speaker 1: funniest parts I love about it is that he's trying
Speaker 1: to waste money and he keeps renovating his office with
Speaker 1: the keep redoing it and redoing it and redoing it
Speaker 1: because he's just like, this is the best way to
Speaker 1: waste money. And then finally, finally, in the end, sorry
Speaker 1: mild spoiler, yeah, he goes, She goes, She goes, is
Speaker 1: this it? Have I finally achieved your dream? He goes,
Speaker 1: this is it? This is a room I could die
Speaker 1: in And she exhales and she goes, all right, boys,
Speaker 1: take it all away, because like twenty guys given and
Speaker 1: Take Everything Away Away. Such a great movie. Great movie.
Speaker 1: You should watch that if you haven't. And do you
Speaker 1: need a certified check? Do you need a receipt? That's
Speaker 1: that last. I love Richard Pryor movies. The Toy was
Speaker 1: Another favorite movie of mine was a Kid That You Touched.
Speaker 1: That movie has a lot of social By the way,
Speaker 1: this is part of for me old enough, but part
Speaker 1: of the fun is taking your kids, Zach through these movies.
Speaker 1: We did a Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with Henry last night.
Speaker 1: Oh that's great. You got to show him the Toy Bill.
Speaker 1: Although gas Richard Pryor, It's awesome. It'll be like I
Speaker 1: already lived this life. I understand the fantasy of the
Speaker 1: point of dare you What are you saying that Henry
Speaker 1: has a toy black man living in his house. I'm
Speaker 1: saying he has a wealthy father, that's all. But it's
Speaker 1: his father and that movie doesn't take care of him. Though, okay,
Speaker 1: it was a fucking joke. Asked next, pretty good joke.
Speaker 1: Dick lips. Dick lips, you're saying my lips look like
Speaker 1: two dicks. Your lips look like a dick's mouth. Remember
Speaker 1: when he says penis breath. I didn't know as a
Speaker 1: child that was a first of all, a pretty racy
Speaker 1: joke for et. He's saying that his brother like that
Speaker 1: penis breath right now, he's saying that his bread his
Speaker 1: He's saying that his brother had a penis in his mouth.
Speaker 1: Otherwise why would he have penis breath. I didn't really
Speaker 1: understand that as a child. And also I didn't know
Speaker 1: if it was penis breath or penis bread. As a child,
Speaker 1: I was like, why is he calling him penis bread?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I go for a piece of penuts
Speaker 1: bread right now? Is actually I could eat some spotted
Speaker 1: dick pudding that shows good, no lies, no liest his
Speaker 1: bread with a little bit of butter. Yeah. I think

Speaker 1: one last thing. We're doing, one last thing. You're benching.
Speaker 1: You're benching ninety times two, which is one eighty plus.
Speaker 1: The bar is forty five five nine two twenty five.
Speaker 1: Are you really benching that to twenty five? Or is
Speaker 1: that fake weights? I think we could get that up.
Speaker 1: I don't think I don't. I think we could get
Speaker 1: that up. No, back in back, back in the episode
Speaker 1: were you were they fake weights? Were you fuck? NBA?
Speaker 1: I went up to let me just say this. NBA
Speaker 1: players would have to bench one eighty five at the
Speaker 1: Columbine if I'm correct, right, they and that's a plate
Speaker 1: on each side and the bar am I correct? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can do that, right, I'm asking in this episode
Speaker 1: you're many more? Do you got to add on to
Speaker 1: make that two twenty five? No? For you do the
Speaker 1: math for you. Your character is benching two twenty five
