Speaker 1: Well, one minute late. Huh. I knew you're gonna say something.
Speaker 1: I knew that's that's how you're doing it. Now. I've
Speaker 1: never been anything but five minutes early. I knew you're
Speaker 1: gonna say something. Shit, one minute late, and you got
Speaker 1: a hat on and everything. Look at you. You You got
Speaker 1: a little scully on. Don't you find this? Weather in
Speaker 1: La is like if you stand in one spot, it's hot,
Speaker 1: and if you stand in another spot, it's cold. Isn't
Speaker 1: that called um global warming? No, it's probably called fall
Speaker 1: in La because in the sun you could wear a
Speaker 1: bathing suit and then in the shadows I need my hat.
Speaker 1: Isn't that called global warming? Yo? It's voting day. This
Speaker 1: is fucking election day, everybody. It's it's a holy yeah.
Speaker 1: First of all, you voted already, obviously, Yes, of course
Speaker 1: I went and dropped it off in the ballot box
Speaker 1: in West Hollywood. I did. I did so myself, not
Speaker 1: in West Hollywood, but uh, in my neighborhood. I'm really
Speaker 1: excited about the turnout so far, Yes I am. I
Speaker 1: You know, you guys aren't going to hear this until
Speaker 1: what what what what? When it is election. It'll be
Speaker 1: Tuesday Tuesday. We need to be encouraging people who haven't
Speaker 1: done it to do it. That's why we're here, not
Speaker 1: only Scrubs podcast. We're here to tell you to vote. No, No,
Speaker 1: that's not why we're here, all right, but not only
Speaker 1: but not only that. Tonight for all of you who've
Speaker 1: gone out and voted already, you get to watch television
Speaker 1: and watch the election. And this probably is gonna be
Speaker 1: like they're taking bets on this election. This is the
Speaker 1: most anyone has ever put money down on. But we
Speaker 1: need to warn people as a public service announcement, right,
Speaker 1: Daniel and Joel, that we may not know these results
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Trump is very very, very very committed to
Speaker 1: saying we need to know the results that night. That's bullshit.
Speaker 1: Because of the incredible surge of mail and voting. Uh,
Speaker 1: some some states aren't even allowed to start counting until
Speaker 1: the day of. So everyone needs to be prepared and
Speaker 1: prepare their friends that this might not be the typical
Speaker 1: situation where we know the result of that night tonight. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I have to speak like work like it's Tuesday. Probably
Speaker 1: closer to two thousand when we had the whole like
Speaker 1: hanging Chad Florida votes kind of thing happening. It will
Speaker 1: be a similar situation to that where probably a week
Speaker 1: or so after we'll have a final we really Florida,
Speaker 1: Florida once again. Florida once again is the biggest. Whoever
Speaker 1: wins Florida is probably gonna win this election once again,
Speaker 1: and Ohio too, probably, But Pennsylvania once again, Pennsylvania is
Speaker 1: really the one Pennsylvania, and I'm the surprise. I think
Speaker 1: there is a little Texas talk about Texas flipping, which
Speaker 1: would Texas all of a sudden too, That would be amazing, right,
Speaker 1: that feels like, but there is talk of Texas flipping.
Speaker 1: More people voted this year in Texas already then they

Speaker 1: is sitting in my um, in my uh room, where
Speaker 1: I watched The Mandalorian four times already. You've already watched
Speaker 1: it four times. It came out today. It came out today, well,
Speaker 1: it came out when it came out. This is supposed
Speaker 1: to be election day, but where we record this on Friday?
Speaker 1: And okay, we came out on Friday anyway, And I, uh,

Speaker 1: gonna curb my uh language when talking about Star Wars.
Speaker 1: But it's so amazing, dude, it is so it was Listen.
Speaker 1: I I enjoyed it so much, and a friend of
Speaker 1: mine's in it, and it was just it was just
Speaker 1: something that I, you know, somebody who I played basketball
Speaker 1: against and somebody who I played, you know, on the
Speaker 1: same team, and also you know, celebrity All Star games
Speaker 1: and stuff like that is on the Mandalorian uh in
Speaker 1: this episode and has some iconic stuff going on with
Speaker 1: him and I just it was just really awesome to
Speaker 1: see and I watched it twice. I loved it about
Speaker 1: It was really good. It's so much more improved. It
Speaker 1: proves a lot on season one. I think they learned
Speaker 1: a lot from how they shot it. I feel like
Speaker 1: there's a lot more depth. I thought the Western aspects
Speaker 1: of its sword and there's like the way that they
Speaker 1: bring up small things in the background of the movies
Speaker 1: and the center of the show is just like it
Speaker 1: just fills your Star Wars heart with love. It's so good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: An you see it yet? Uh No, I have not
Speaker 1: watched it yet. I think I have to wait for
Speaker 1: my girlfriend. She's she's out of town, but back tomorrow.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I have to wait because you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know how it is with you and your wife.
Speaker 1: I wait, I didn't wait from my wife. There are
Speaker 1: shows that we get in. We have to wait or
Speaker 1: we um have you know she you know, we share it.
Speaker 1: She loves it too, so we watch it together. Have
Speaker 1: you started watching a bachelor yet? You know what I
Speaker 1: have to do? I give this. I watched that ship.
Speaker 1: You don't watch the Bachelor, Okay, I mean I I well,
Speaker 1: this is the one that's the Bachelorette right now, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't. I watched like episode, the first episode, and
Speaker 1: I was like, this is so stupid. Why am I
Speaker 1: watching this? Oh? Yeah, god? You know why? Sure this candy.
Speaker 1: You watch it with your wife, and you watch it
Speaker 1: because that's something you watch with your wife. Daniel. It's
Speaker 1: so tasty. It's so tasty. It's so tasty, just like
Speaker 1: you're just sour head kids. Oh my god, it's like
Speaker 1: you're it's like you're going to see a Marvel movie
Speaker 1: and you've got all of the freaking candy in your lap.
Speaker 1: It's the Marvel movie for drama. Oh my god. Just
Speaker 1: like I don't like it. I don't like the ones
Speaker 1: where it's men competing. It's the best. It's to see
Speaker 1: how petty men can be. I think that women fighting
Speaker 1: way more energy. No, my brother, no, but that's like
Speaker 1: that's like freaking U stereotypical you you you you. That's
Speaker 1: what I rather watch a bunch of women aren't you
Speaker 1: than I watch a bunch of men aren't you. I'm sorry, No,
Speaker 1: it's way funnier to watch men try to stay in
Speaker 1: between the lines of not getting punched in the face
Speaker 1: and still trying to insult somebody. I saw the funniest thing.
Speaker 1: Seemed in love with the black guy, who's the first
Speaker 1: guy she met. It was like, oh, it seems like
Speaker 1: it's over. She was just like, drop jog, it is.
Speaker 1: It is over. A new bachelorretto beyond, a new bachelorettell beyond,
Speaker 1: and the two of them run off together from the
Speaker 1: middle of the ship in the middle of the show
Speaker 1: the third episode. In the third episode, Disney ABC, ABC,
Speaker 1: You're welcome for this, for this, for this, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're well shameless, shameless. So some people might be upsetp
Speaker 1: by Spullers, but I don't give a fuck you're telling
Speaker 1: me she picks black guy like three episodes in and
Speaker 1: then change the person out. It is they change the
Speaker 1: bachelortte and and and and some of the dudes like
Speaker 1: and you see like especially after like all of the
Speaker 1: me too stuff has happened, and you start to realize,
Speaker 1: you start to recognize as a man some of the
Speaker 1: things that aren't acceptable anymore, and how men talk to
Speaker 1: women and how all of that happens and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: You really see some well, at least one dude just
Speaker 1: go into like a tirade where it's like, dude, your
Speaker 1: power move. You're trying to pull a power move on
Speaker 1: this on this young lady and that is totally whack.
Speaker 1: And then then she flips it and she's pulling power
Speaker 1: moves on these dudes just for this one dude, just
Speaker 1: for this one guy. Man, it's like, it's it's it's
Speaker 1: it's I. I I when it came walking about the
Speaker 1: Bachelor at Yeah, dude, when it came on. When it
Speaker 1: came on, I told my wife I'll be in the
Speaker 1: other room, please don't bother me. I went to the
Speaker 1: fridge to get like some like some uh gts kimbucha. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and uh as I'm grabbing the kimbucha. Within seconds, I
Speaker 1: was already making my way towards the couch, asking what
Speaker 1: it's like. It's it's the only thing that you and
Speaker 1: your wife watch together. Yeah, because she's into all of
Speaker 1: that freaking you know, forty eight hours and you know,
Speaker 1: I murder what about sports? So she watched the sports
Speaker 1: with you. Yeah, she you know, she's one that got
Speaker 1: me into football. I wasn't really into football unless the
Speaker 1: Giants were involved, you know, when I was a kid
Speaker 1: and I became a grown man and met my wife
Speaker 1: at you know, thirty something years old in my early thirties,
Speaker 1: and she took me to my first football game ever.
Speaker 1: And she took me to see a New York team
Speaker 1: play her hometown team. And it was like and we
Speaker 1: sat in the box of the quarterbacks and shit like that.
Speaker 1: It was like, yeah, well, you know, her best friend
Speaker 1: was dating the quarterback on the Dallas Cowboys at the time. Yea,
Speaker 1: or they were about or they were about to date.
Speaker 1: But anyway, it was one of the and it was
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and it was like my first time not really
Speaker 1: flying home, and you know, I didn't. I was divorced
Speaker 1: from my ex wife, God rest her soul, and so
Speaker 1: I'm not going over to their house and spending Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: with my kids. And she took me to Dallas for
Speaker 1: my first time really in Dallas to a football game.
Speaker 1: And this was very early in our relationship, and I
Speaker 1: got to hang out with you know, the quarterback of
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys and other players. It was really cool.
Speaker 1: And she got me into football and now I know
Speaker 1: more about football than she does. All right, should be
Speaker 1: getting the show down, and why don't you count us
Speaker 1: into some fun, fun fun programming with our favorite numbers
Speaker 1: five six, seven, eight stories about show we made about
Speaker 1: a bunch of doctor nurses and stories. So data around here,
Speaker 1: yeat around here, A welcome to the program everybody. We
Speaker 1: are so appreciative that you listen to this. We are
Speaker 1: so appreciative of you liking just sitting around chatting with
Speaker 1: us all. We love doing it for you. And uh
Speaker 1: and Donald is going to summarize the show as he
Speaker 1: often does. Often takes some roughly thirty seven seconds. We
Speaker 1: never know what's going to happen. Okay, so this one,
Speaker 1: with this one, I had to I watched the show
Speaker 1: earlier and then I went out and did my daily
Speaker 1: stuff and came back. And now that I look at
Speaker 1: my notes, I like what I wrote, but I feel
Speaker 1: like I missed a couple of things. So there might
Speaker 1: be a little bit of ad libbing in this too. All. Okay,
Speaker 1: So this is exciting for fans. Donald may Riff, he
Speaker 1: may um. What do you call when a rapper just
Speaker 1: a freestyle? Well this is well yeah, because it's not
Speaker 1: off the top, so there is a bit of freestyle
Speaker 1: in it, like my freestyle. As you are spinning some bars,
Speaker 1: you may freestyle. That's my dude, right there? Can I
Speaker 1: ask decide no questions. When guys are like Eminem, like
Speaker 1: spitting freestyle bars, don't you think they have it all
Speaker 1: that shit memorized? They're not really, fucking no. But that's
Speaker 1: the difference between freestyle and off the top of the head.
Speaker 1: So off the top of the head is when it's
Speaker 1: completely you're making it up right there at that moment.
Speaker 1: Freestyle is when you're giving people, uh bars that you've
Speaker 1: written and put together already, uh for free, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, And people get to listen to your stuff.
Speaker 1: But that video when Eminem was like in the garage
Speaker 1: and he was like no, no, no, no, no, that
Speaker 1: was off. That was off the top of the head.
Speaker 1: Probably he's you're talking about when he's which one are
Speaker 1: you talking about? I don't watch a lot of this,
Speaker 1: but I remember, like a few years ago, one or
Speaker 1: two years ago, Eminem was like in a parking garage
Speaker 1: and all his boys were sitting on a car, right,
Speaker 1: and that was that did a big spoof of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was a That was a BT Awards. I believe
Speaker 1: that was off the top of the head. I believe
Speaker 1: that was off at the top of the head. I
Speaker 1: feel like when rappers do freestyle, the verse is a
Speaker 1: little bit more Daniel. You could correct me if you
Speaker 1: believe I'm wrong, but I feel like the verse is
Speaker 1: a little bit more polo when it's freestyle. Like so
Speaker 1: if somebody goes on the radio and they're like, spit
Speaker 1: a couple of bars, and they're like, all right, this
Speaker 1: is freestyle. It's just like a bunch of songs that
Speaker 1: they put together or a bunch of lines that they
Speaker 1: put together just for and it's not necessarily in an order,
Speaker 1: but when it's but when it's off the top of
Speaker 1: the head, they're just coming in and saying, all right,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say anything that I've written before, this
Speaker 1: is all about right now, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I wanted to offer a slightly different perspective on the
Speaker 1: same idea as a DJ. I would very rarely plan
Speaker 1: DJ sets like I would rarely plan this song goes
Speaker 1: into this song, goes into this song, goes into this song,
Speaker 1: because I've been DJing for a very long time, and
Speaker 1: with that in my head already, I have hundreds and
Speaker 1: hundreds of one, two, three song combinations that I know
Speaker 1: we're going to work well together. So it's freestyle freestyle,
Speaker 1: right exactly. So over that set, I may be putting
Speaker 1: together a couple of different pieces that I already know
Speaker 1: work together in a set that I'm not necessarily planning.
Speaker 1: So maybe the order of the songs I've played I've
Speaker 1: never ever played before, but it doesn't mean that a
Speaker 1: couple of those transitions I don't know very very well.
Speaker 1: And I think it's the same thing with freestyle rep.
Speaker 1: These guys have, you know, worked with these themes and
Speaker 1: motifs and all of this stuff so much that a
Speaker 1: lot of those rhymes, a lot of those you know,
Speaker 1: lyrical plays are pieces that they've done over and over
Speaker 1: and over, maybe not in that order, maybe not on
Speaker 1: that topic, but it's a subject, it's a method that
Speaker 1: they're very familiar with. So it's kind of you know,
Speaker 1: I don't want to say easier, but it's like it's
Speaker 1: It's part of the practice, right. I guess I'm just
Speaker 1: cynical when people are like supposedly coming up with it,
Speaker 1: not like freestyle, just like totally totally, totally fresh, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, come on, buddy, Well, well there are some
Speaker 1: people that do have that talent though, there are some
Speaker 1: people that you know, to go into a recording booth
Speaker 1: and do your verse and do it in one take
Speaker 1: is a talent, you know what I mean. That means
Speaker 1: you've not only worked on it, but you're so connected
Speaker 1: to the beat that you're able to ride the rhythm. Also,
Speaker 1: you know that's different. A guy goes in, doesn't he
Speaker 1: usually write it out when he goes into the recording booth. Well,
Speaker 1: sometimes he writes it at that moment and then goes
Speaker 1: in or or as jay Z. Jay Z is one
Speaker 1: of the masters of freestyle, a little Wayne, he was
Speaker 1: one of the masters of freestyle. But if if you
Speaker 1: don't write your rhymes and you just try to think
Speaker 1: of it and you're you know, you you think about
Speaker 1: Biggie the Notorious big is the king of this where
Speaker 1: he would sit in the studio and just listen to
Speaker 1: the beat, and as he listened, he'd sit there and
Speaker 1: rehearse it in his head, right, and then as it
Speaker 1: went on, as it got to the point where you know,
Speaker 1: you know, like you know, I don't know how long
Speaker 1: it would take, he'd be like, all right, I'm ready.
Speaker 1: And if he'd go into the booth and drop what
Speaker 1: he was rehearsing to do that, that's freestyle to me,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like it's like in my mind,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna say this, this, this and this
Speaker 1: and and at this part I'm gonna try and freak
Speaker 1: it like this, okay, And then I said it right
Speaker 1: right right, and then always go back and when you
Speaker 1: listen to it, the awe and the you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, him catching the beat, all of that shit
Speaker 1: is so raw because it's it's not written, it's it's
Speaker 1: him feeling it and being in it. That's a bit
Speaker 1: of freestyle right there, you know what I mean. That's
Speaker 1: a that's a that's what makes the great ones. Jay
Speaker 1: Z is another one that does that. Uh. I heard
Speaker 1: Little Wayne somebody that does that. I heard he just
Speaker 1: would just go on for days, sit in front of
Speaker 1: a little microphone and a keyboard and just rap and
Speaker 1: rap and rap and rap and rap and rap and
Speaker 1: wrap it rap, rap, rap rap. That's how it was
Speaker 1: when I did my passover wrap that I sang for
Speaker 1: you guys a while back. And did you sing your
Speaker 1: passover wrap or was that on something else? Didn't I
Speaker 1: do my passover rap for you guys? I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever heard your passover wrap. Yeah
Speaker 1: you say, yeah, you did your passover wrap? Yeah yeah, Donald, Yeah,
Speaker 1: when you were talking, you were talking it was Helen
Speaker 1: Zach took a trip to Boston. Yeah, uh, something about
Speaker 1: like something like the reasons. I know. Just remember your comb. Yeah,
Speaker 1: now I was fired Donald, Thanks for remembering. I remember dog.
Speaker 1: What can we hear it again? Yeah? One day, four
Speaker 1: people took a trip to Boston, Elaine, Helen Zach, and
Speaker 1: an OUTI five thousand. The reason for the trip was
Speaker 1: pass over time. If we snook some bread and it
Speaker 1: would be a crime. Just remember on this five hour trip,
Speaker 1: McDonald dem Burger king, we would skip. The reason for
Speaker 1: this deed was pass over time. If we snook some
Speaker 1: bread and it would be a crime. Why don't we
Speaker 1: go so far when we could pray at home? The
Speaker 1: reason was unknown. Just remember your comb. That's slack. You know,
Speaker 1: you know, you know what I love about that. I
Speaker 1: love about what. I love that. As a youth, you
Speaker 1: understood that your parents were just taking you on as
Speaker 1: long as journey so that you would not think about food.
Speaker 1: But on this journey, you guys passed McDonald's and Burger
Speaker 1: King and all these This was a time of like, um,
Speaker 1: the Beastie Boys, like fight for your right to party
Speaker 1: era right. So that was my introduction as a Jewish
Speaker 1: kid in North Jersey. I didn't know anything about any
Speaker 1: other rap really, other than the Beastie Boys singing you
Speaker 1: Gotta fight. Oh, you're right, that's the only Beastie Boys. No,
Speaker 1: I knew the whole album. I'm just saying that. I
Speaker 1: I you can go ahead and make your jokes that
Speaker 1: that was my introduction to rap. But that's what it was.
Speaker 1: What let me ask you one question, but one that record,
Speaker 1: what was your favorite song? I would have to look
Speaker 1: at the track list. I don't have a memorized the
Speaker 1: one with the plane, right, and the one with the
Speaker 1: plane Yeah. Now, did you like Paul Revere at all? Yes,
Speaker 1: I even got some of that memorized. I think that's
Speaker 1: one of the best. I didn't like this. I didn't
Speaker 1: like that. I didn't with a whiffle ball about on
Speaker 1: the run the cop scott my gun and run about
Speaker 1: now I try to have some fun. The king got
Speaker 1: ron that is my name, and I got the fly

Speaker 1: hates this so much that he tries to sabotage it.
Speaker 1: No relationship is perfect. You have to nurture all relationships,
Speaker 1: all of them, whether they be at work or with
Speaker 1: a person, and oftentimes just showing up isn't enough. Effort
Speaker 1: is required, and sometimes it's hard to muster up the
Speaker 1: energy to do so because life is exhausting. But if
Speaker 1: you have love, you fight for it. If you love
Speaker 1: what you do, you follow through your effort and attention
Speaker 1: to others needs could be what's required to save a relationship. Amen. Amen,
Speaker 1: relationships are hard. Don you got to work at it.
Speaker 1: You gotta work. But it's not just. But it's not
Speaker 1: you know, I'm you know that's that's that's the theme
Speaker 1: of this show. But it's not just you know, with
Speaker 1: another person. Your relationship with your job is just as
Speaker 1: important your relationship with you know, how you are with
Speaker 1: the outside world. If that I don't, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you would describe that relationship. But
Speaker 1: who you are when you step in front of the
Speaker 1: world is just as important as you know, how you
Speaker 1: manifest and nurture your personal relationship. Question is and all
Speaker 1: your relationships, do you want to put in the work
Speaker 1: or do you want to run or right right? Or
Speaker 1: do you want to or do you want to just
Speaker 1: see what happens? And and you know, Cox and JD
Speaker 1: are a perfect example of two dudes. I just wanted
Speaker 1: to get the funk out of the hospital and you know,
Speaker 1: because of this annoying patient and realize at dinner that
Speaker 1: they're be being a little too insensitive and that holy cow,
Speaker 1: maybe we you know, we're not seeing the signs because
Speaker 1: we're not paying attention to our job. We're not doing
Speaker 1: the best that we're not being the best that we
Speaker 1: can be, and we're not listening to what this young
Speaker 1: lady is saying to us. And and so at the
Speaker 1: end when they rushed back to the hospital, when they
Speaker 1: realized what the problem is, you know that that really
Speaker 1: that was a big moment for me because this episode
Speaker 1: isn't necessarily my favorite episode. It's not necessarily the fine.
Speaker 1: Didn't you find it odd? Though? I mean, it didn't
Speaker 1: cross their minds that she I mean, she fucking ate pesticide.
Speaker 1: Like they didn't cross their mind that like she might
Speaker 1: be suicidal. I thought that was a little weird. That
Speaker 1: was very well, you know, we were like we've done
Speaker 1: all these tests and we even sent some people to
Speaker 1: your house, and we just can't figure out why there
Speaker 1: might be pesticide in your system. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: just thought it was a little weird. It's you know, hey,
Speaker 1: but what do I know. I'm not a genius. Bill Lawrence,
Speaker 1: who showed Ted Lasso just got picked up for two
Speaker 1: more seasons. That's amazing congratulation how big that show is
Speaker 1: internationally and domestically that I mean, they picked it up
Speaker 1: for they haven't even started season two and they picked
Speaker 1: up two and three. That's so crazy because speaking interupting,
Speaker 1: I gave a compliment interrupting Bill, Oh he's into all right,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to I've missed you guys. Um, you're doing
Speaker 1: a great job on my podcast. I appreciate it. Uh So,
Speaker 1: here is the question for today, and don't cheat. Um
Speaker 1: my fifteen seconds every time you guys entered Jill Tracy's room. Um,
Speaker 1: doctors only spend fifteen seconds with a patient average, Um,
Speaker 1: and a clock comes up. One question one do you
Speaker 1: think that's a real thing or that we made it
Speaker 1: up for the show? Um, I think it must be
Speaker 1: a real thing. It's too weird to not it's it's
Speaker 1: to me, it's too random and weird to have been
Speaker 1: made up. It does feel short as someone who's unfortunately
Speaker 1: spent a bunch of time in hospitals in the last
Speaker 1: few years. But I feel like he wouldn't pull that
Speaker 1: out of his butt. I think I think I think
Speaker 1: they made it up. Okay, all right, let's find out
Speaker 1: wrong or right it's not really a real thing. And um,
Speaker 1: we did make it up for the show. Because I
Speaker 1: find that if you put a small dramatic thing like
Speaker 1: that in there that people believe it actually kind of
Speaker 1: helps your storytelling. But the even more crafty cheating aspect
Speaker 1: to this. Every time you went in there in the
Speaker 1: fifteen second clock showed up. Do you think it was
Speaker 1: actually fifteen seconds? No, it was, so I know that.
Speaker 1: I know that from scrubs Wicky. I'm sorry, that's a
Speaker 1: bit of a cheat, but they scrubs wiki, of course
Speaker 1: points out how those segments are by no means fifteen seconds.
Speaker 1: M let's find out correct it was not. I think
Speaker 1: one of them might even be twenty seven or thirty seconds.
Speaker 1: But we just slowed down the countdown so we could
Speaker 1: do whatever we want. And that's how you cheat in television.
Speaker 1: There you go, Thank you, interrupting Bill for that. I
Speaker 1: like that. That was a very fun interrupting Bill for me.
Speaker 1: It was you know why. You know, I thought, because
Speaker 1: he's the top show runner in town this week, that
Speaker 1: he might come on extra cocky, but no, he held
Speaker 1: it together, he held his ego in check. I'm actually
Speaker 1: I'm going to dinner with him and Krista tonight. So
Speaker 1: if there's anything you want me to do, you know,
Speaker 1: tell them I'm I'm getting in shape. I got a
Speaker 1: job that's gonna, you know, make me get in shape
Speaker 1: for a little while. What are you hiding from the audience?
Speaker 1: What job is this? Do you not want to talk
Speaker 1: about it? No, we could talk about it. You know
Speaker 1: this might get cut, but well you can bet we
Speaker 1: can beat it or something I signed on to do, like, oh, oh,
Speaker 1: Joel is gonna lose your mind? What cool booking? Congrats? Yeah,
Speaker 1: and so we'll see what happens with that. I don't
Speaker 1: know if I'm allowed to talk about it, but you guys,
Speaker 1: we could beap it. We can beep the title. But
Speaker 1: so is that pushing your training into full gear? Are
Speaker 1: we pelotonuting the shit out of us ourselves? Now? Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's some nudeness perhaps, Oh are we gonna see your eel?
Speaker 1: You're not gonna see my eel. No, there's there's no
Speaker 1: way that Casey will allow that. Casey's like they I
Speaker 1: don't want anybody seeing your butt or your eel. I
Speaker 1: don't want to see booty or frontal. No. Casey's like,
Speaker 1: you can show chest, you can show, you can show
Speaker 1: belly button. What you can and you're not allowed to do.
Speaker 1: You can show crease you can allowed to do a
Speaker 1: sexy will Apparently, apparently I have to simulate sex on
Speaker 1: the in the in the in the show. So how
Speaker 1: can Casey, How can Casey limit your ability as a
Speaker 1: handsome male actor to do a sex scene. I don't
Speaker 1: believe it because the show runner made the mistake of saying,
Speaker 1: you don't have to do the nudity part isn't necessarily important.
Speaker 1: I think we should see your ass. You have a
Speaker 1: nice bubble, and I think earth needs to see it.
Speaker 1: Bounce the earth, Yeah, the whole earth. Well, anyone who
Speaker 1: watches the show should see that. Shouldn't bounce, right, Joel, Yes,
Speaker 1: if you're comfortable with me. I know Casey's not comfortable
Speaker 1: with the case. He's like, ain't nobody seeing your ass bounce?
Speaker 1: I wish she would be. She's got to loosen up
Speaker 1: about that. She probably will loosen up about it by
Speaker 1: the time we get to it as a as a
Speaker 1: right now. As of right now, she's like, do you
Speaker 1: really want people to see how you fuck? Is that
Speaker 1: what you really try? Do you want to show how
Speaker 1: good you are? Will you're evil be getting its own credit?
Speaker 1: Or do you share a credit? All right, let's talk
Speaker 1: about we're gonna we share a title sequence speaking of
Speaker 1: names for Cox, That's how the show opens up. Jad's name,
Speaker 1: his penis's name is little Buddy. Um. He doesn't like that.
Speaker 1: He wishes it was named big al and Um. And
Speaker 1: this moment when I'm dancing naked in front of tarr
Speaker 1: Reid is what I told you in the last episode,
Speaker 1: when my sock fell off and she was able to
Speaker 1: see my giblets in their entirety. That's I remember thinking like,
Speaker 1: I remember thinking, no, m might have been nice for her,
Speaker 1: but I remember thinking like, oh no, Tara, it's there's
Speaker 1: a lot of air conditioning, and I have more to
Speaker 1: offer the world than what you're seeing. Cock Site, just
Speaker 1: stop talking about willis Sorry, Jeb, sorry, Deb, Just one
Speaker 1: more second. Deb, We're getting into will you talk? But Um,

Speaker 1: you've named my junk eel eel, black whale. I never
Speaker 1: called it black whale. How have you? When you yea,
Speaker 1: you had to do this too for Um for Scrubs,
Speaker 1: when that episode where you're walking in through the park,
Speaker 1: so you just take a tube sock and you just
Speaker 1: kind of tuck everything in. And that's what that's what
Speaker 1: fell off when I started doing that wacky dance. You
Speaker 1: didn't put you didn't try to put like a rubber
Speaker 1: band at the base. Well, I didn't want to cut
Speaker 1: off circulation and lose a nut. You're not going to
Speaker 1: cut off circulation, dude. They what if they were like
Speaker 1: the scene is though, that's a cut on the scene,
Speaker 1: zach Um, your scrotum is blue. They make these things
Speaker 1: and for oh oh, I didn't if I didn't have
Speaker 1: anything professional like that. Colre me mine. Sorry, you were
Speaker 1: very very very uh secure in the fact that a
Speaker 1: sock would be able to keep little buddy covered. Well,
Speaker 1: I learned the hard way. You no pun intended donald
Speaker 1: that um that it did not work. So tera Reid,
Speaker 1: you're welcome. You're welcome. Um, so color me mine. Uh.
Speaker 1: The very very adorable African American man next to me
Speaker 1: is Pooky, who was one of our main lighting electricians
Speaker 1: on the show for almost the whole run of the show.
Speaker 1: He was Pooky in the beginning, and he was like,
Speaker 1: I don't want to be called Pooky no more. My
Speaker 1: name is Chris. I never got a change. Maybe that
Speaker 1: was you being tough guys like alpha males. He was
Speaker 1: always Pooky to me, No Boddy. He changed his name
Speaker 1: to everybody halfway through because he was sick and tired
Speaker 1: of being called Pooky. Well, I never heard that. I
Speaker 1: never got the memo. If I saw him to day,
Speaker 1: I'd give him a well, I wouldn't be able to
Speaker 1: give him a big hug, but I'd yell Pooky. Remember
Speaker 1: when Pooky lost all that weight too. Yeah. By the way,
Speaker 1: Pookie may have been in the rerun dance sequence. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: he was. Absolutely, he was great guy, really really great guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: one of one of our favorites. Yeah, and he was
Speaker 1: one of you know, some of the some of the
Speaker 1: crew members did the whole nine years with us, and
Speaker 1: I think Pooky came and went a little bit, but
Speaker 1: he was with us almost the whole time. Yes, um,
Speaker 1: you know electrician doing setting up, setting and focusing the lights.
Speaker 1: He and he made a lot of and he made
Speaker 1: a lot of cameos on the show. This. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is the beginning of seeing him. Yeah, this is the
Speaker 1: beginning of seeing him. But you'll you'll reckon, you'll find
Speaker 1: him a lot more as this there's a gag reel
Speaker 1: moment in one of the seasons whereas where I'm running
Speaker 1: lines with him, he was playing Do you remember that
Speaker 1: he was playing, Oh yeah, we actually filmed it and
Speaker 1: it wasn't. You guys weren't running lines. Somebody was supposed
Speaker 1: to be in the scene. They were like, all right, Poky,
Speaker 1: it wasn't. I think it was yeah, And they were like, Pooky,
Speaker 1: you get up in there and do it. And he
Speaker 1: gets in there and we all thought he was gonna
Speaker 1: freaking uh, you know, black, I can't do it, guys,
Speaker 1: and out of it he played that. He went hardcore
Speaker 1: with it too. The funny thing is he still had
Speaker 1: like all his gear on. He had like his walkie
Speaker 1: talkie earpiece and all that shit. But he just played it,
Speaker 1: played it so straight like he was Elliott or something.
Speaker 1: It was really good, man. It was really awesome man.
Speaker 1: All right, listen, um, I don't know if it's us
Speaker 1: Tara and I are. I'm feeling it's probably stunted people
Speaker 1: that fall out of that tree. But you can totally
Speaker 1: see the Matt that's hidden under like a really lame
Speaker 1: piece of asteroid turf. I just I just love, I
Speaker 1: love the fact that j d's ideal date with the
Speaker 1: girl to kiss the first time was in a tree. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's just like just like the song, just like the
Speaker 1: song K, S and G. That's right, Yeah, I JD's
Speaker 1: such a fucking dorc. It's amazing he got these great
Speaker 1: women because he is so nerdy. I think it's so endearing.
Speaker 1: I think it's so endearing that this is how JD is.
Speaker 1: I think you don't. You don't you don't think his sense, No,
Speaker 1: I do. I think he's nerdy and charming in people
Speaker 1: and women, um uh and man, depending on what you're
Speaker 1: indu love to laugh, and so he gets I'm guessing
Speaker 1: he gets chicks. I mean, obviously he's a doctor, which
Speaker 1: is impressive, but also because he's silly and goofy and
Speaker 1: makes him laugh. Wow, he reminds me of Hugh Grant
Speaker 1: And what's that in every Hugh Grant movie? Right, pretty much?
Speaker 1: But him and Julia Roberts, Oh, notting Hill, notting Hill,
Speaker 1: and how Hugh Grant's kind of like oopsie Daisy, like
Speaker 1: j D says things like that, and that's I don't know,
Speaker 1: that's endearing. I totally get why j D has such
Speaker 1: a great uh is a ladies man. Um, how about
Speaker 1: that door hit I do at three twenty eight. That
Speaker 1: was pretty damn nice if I can, if I give
Speaker 1: myself a comedic stunt pat on the back, it's a
Speaker 1: nice door hit. And I don't think I'd done a
Speaker 1: glass door hit since the pilot. So there you go,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. I think that's the first time I've
Speaker 1: run into that what's supposed to be the very same door,
Speaker 1: although in the pilot we all know we were in
Speaker 1: a different hospital. Yeah. And the fact that these two
Speaker 1: are so comfortable, you know, in the fact that the
Speaker 1: fact that JDS so comfortable in Cox's house fooling around
Speaker 1: with this young lady is a little that that was
Speaker 1: just caught me kind of off guard when he walked
Speaker 1: in and he was like, and he's yelling at the
Speaker 1: two of you for you know, cuddling and being all
Speaker 1: cutesy in the morning and stuff. Yeah, that caught me
Speaker 1: off guard. Like the fact that j D feels that
Speaker 1: comfortable now that he's willing to bang in doctor Cox's houses.
Speaker 1: It's pretty funny though, when I when I when he
Speaker 1: catches me naked and I hold up the picture of
Speaker 1: his baby in front of my ground and he's like, right,
Speaker 1: well that and then I turn it around and it's him.
Speaker 1: By the way, it's the season one promotional picture like
Speaker 1: way to go Props Department, Like, let's just grab a
Speaker 1: fucking Scrubs promo pick. I've have been put it in
Speaker 1: the frame. That was funny. Yeah. A waffle time song.
Speaker 1: He's like, do not sing when I come in the kitchen.
Speaker 1: I'm like, waffle time. It's waffle time. Won't you have
Speaker 1: some waffles up mine? I don't know if that's the
Speaker 1: melody I was going to ask you, because at the
Speaker 1: end of you have some waffles of mine? I forgot
Speaker 1: what the melody was, but we'll be at the end
Speaker 1: of it. You you sing along with him. So was
Speaker 1: this something that you two made up at that moment. No,
Speaker 1: he's like, you're talking about how comfortably is Jady's walking
Speaker 1: into his kitchen and like morning, waffull time, waffle time,
Speaker 1: won't you have some waffles of mine? But as but
Speaker 1: as actors, was this something that Bill was like, this
Speaker 1: is how the song goes, or was it something that
Speaker 1: John c made up? Or was it something that you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Because I probably made it up.
Speaker 1: I don't know if John sees the stupid silly jingle
Speaker 1: maker up or like I am, because like I can
Speaker 1: have a whole career as a jingle writer. Donald, word, Oh,
Speaker 1: why aren't you doing that? There's so much money in it?
Speaker 1: Not really, no, there's not, Yeah there is. And that
Speaker 1: Dudley Moore movie funny what was it? What year was that? Dude?
Speaker 1: They were freaking killing it. But you know who wrote
Speaker 1: du dun No no no, no no, no, no, no no no,
Speaker 1: round ball Rock? John Tesh, John Tesh, John Tesh, Dude,
Speaker 1: John Tesh, John j wrote more jingles. Have you ever
Speaker 1: seen John believe? Have you ever seen John Tesh at
Speaker 1: Red Rock? No? I don't know what that is. It's
Speaker 1: him playing at the venue. Yeah wait, that's where he
Speaker 1: did the Roundball Rock thing. Yeah yeah, yeah yeah. Red
Speaker 1: Rocks is the avenue in Colorado. Oh, Red Rocks I've
Speaker 1: heard of. Yeah, beautiful out to our venue. But he go,
Speaker 1: but um, Donald, I thought you'd be impressed that. I know. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no, that's fucking John Tesh's great as hit. You
Speaker 1: guys have seen this video where he describes coming up
Speaker 1: with that right. No, but do you think he made
Speaker 1: Do you think that was just a buyout or did
Speaker 1: he make nine zillion dollars off of it? What maybe
Speaker 1: could be? What Dan? What was unique about him coming
Speaker 1: up with it? Oh, it's just it's just so funny
Speaker 1: because he sends him self a voicemail where he's like, hey, listen,
Speaker 1: just remember this one for later. I'll talk to you
Speaker 1: later by And it's just like a voice where he
Speaker 1: plays at Red Rocks for everybody, I'm gonna find the video.
Speaker 1: I'll set it to you. Oh that's no. But there's
Speaker 1: a lot of if you're interested in this topic, for
Speaker 1: those of you, for those of you are a little
Speaker 1: bit confused. John Tesh was the host of Entertainment Tonight
Speaker 1: for basically most of our childhood and lie him and
Speaker 1: Mary Heart. Yeah, and that was this is back when
Speaker 1: there weren't all these other streaming things, so it was
Speaker 1: like what was on you watched Entertainment Tonight. And he
Speaker 1: was an entertainment journalist and he had this side hustle
Speaker 1: which was probably way more lucrative than being an entertainment anchor,
Speaker 1: where he would write jingles and if you look up,
Speaker 1: if you google it, he wrote a lot of fucking
Speaker 1: music and a lot of jingles. You know. No, he
Speaker 1: was a concert pianist, dude. Okay, well I'm saying he also,
Speaker 1: in addition to the that's song, what is that the
Speaker 1: NBA fucking jingle? He wrote a lot It's actually only
Speaker 1: the NBA on the NBC. That's what he wrote, all right.
Speaker 1: I couldn't have known that. Well it's not it's not
Speaker 1: the NBA song anymore. If you don't hear that song anymore.
Speaker 1: You know what else he wrote? You know what else?
Speaker 1: He wrote what you're trying to get into? No, he
Speaker 1: did not do. Not give that man credit for writing that.
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what I could I could pull
Speaker 1: up on my phone. In a similar way, when when
Speaker 1: Donald and I were about to do the podcast, I
Speaker 1: said we got to have a dope theme song. And
Speaker 1: I played to Donald like something like this, and then
Speaker 1: Donald sent something back to me like riffing on it,
Speaker 1: someday I have to play you. And that's what we
Speaker 1: sent to Charlie, who then went and made it dope.
Speaker 1: Well it was a genius idea. You were like it
Speaker 1: should be like the Jeffersons, and I was like, oh shit,
Speaker 1: But we turned it into like, and I know we're
Speaker 1: just reminiscing. We turned it into a freaking fire. It's
Speaker 1: a bop, it's a pop. It's a bob bob, it's
Speaker 1: a bob. All right, we have a fan and we're
Speaker 1: gonna go to bring will be right back after these words, gentlemen,
Speaker 1: we're bad back. We're back. We're back with the Amanda Kabobby.

Speaker 1: the Oprah, Amanda Bobba. Holy shit. Yeah, it's true, Amanda,
Speaker 1: it's real. It happened him. I started drinking wine because
Speaker 1: I was nervous, and I was like, I don't know
Speaker 1: if that's a good or bad thing, so we'll figure
Speaker 1: it out. I guess I'm drinking wine too. It's okay.
Speaker 1: Oh really, I thought we had a note new let's
Speaker 1: not drink during the podcast rule. Donald, Okay, I I
Speaker 1: I broke that rule. Oh I think. Good to know, Amanda.

Speaker 1: of those ways where I'm like suburban Jersey, not Jersey

Speaker 1: that there is, of course a Black Mirror episode about this,
Speaker 1: So thank you for reminding us. If you don't watch
Speaker 1: Black Mirror, watch Black Mirror. But there's a very, very fascinating,
Speaker 1: slash bizarrely hilarious, interesting commentary on sexuality episode of Black Mirror,
Speaker 1: including VR sex between two hetero friends. So there you go, Amanda,
Speaker 1: Amanda a manage. You have a question for us to
Speaker 1: cheer Donald up? The sexiest man alive? In my eyes,
Speaker 1: I can't, you can't and you can't know. No, no,
Speaker 1: I I am. I am not the sexiest men alive
Speaker 1: according to Zach. But if if I put out a magazine,
Speaker 1: my best friend said to me, oh no, you're never
Speaker 1: gonna get that. Those were his exact words. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna put it out there. Oh no, You're never gonna
Speaker 1: get that. I my heart is oh man, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't usually like shut the fuck up. I look,
Speaker 1: you aren't me so bad? Shall I bring you together
Speaker 1: with a question? Yes? Please? The subject? All right? Well,
Speaker 1: I hope this brings up good memories, not bad memory.
Speaker 1: But one of my questions was, so, what is the
Speaker 1: worst trouble the two of you have gotten into together,
Speaker 1: whether it was on set of scrubs or not on
Speaker 1: set of scrubs? How are you going to ask me
Speaker 1: this question? I can't answer this question. I can't answer
Speaker 1: this question. We got into a lot of trouble. That's
Speaker 1: a lot of trouble that we've gotten into we can't
Speaker 1: even talk about. There were there were times where I
Speaker 1: am I'm trying my hardest too right now. There were
Speaker 1: times where I was like, I can't believe that shit
Speaker 1: happened right out, I can't believe we put ourselves into
Speaker 1: that situation and that shit happen. Yeah, you don't want
Speaker 1: to give a lot of money and a lot of
Speaker 1: fame to two guys in their mid twenties. Uh No,
Speaker 1: I expect that they're not gonna get You don't want
Speaker 1: to do it to you don't want to do it
Speaker 1: to anyone in their mid twenties, not two guys to
Speaker 1: anyone in the twenties. Much money at a young age
Speaker 1: is not a good thing. We had some adventures, um
Speaker 1: and uh, and that's all we'll say. As poor is
Speaker 1: another glass of wine for himself and fucking two in
Speaker 1: the after noon. M Amanda, We'll give you another question
Speaker 1: because that one we can't really fully answer. Okay, fine,
Speaker 1: that's fair. So, um, I was actually gonna ask so Zach,
Speaker 1: I'm like obsessed with Garden State High School. Me would
Speaker 1: probably literally pass away if she knew this was happening
Speaker 1: right now. And so I also was like, I'm nerdy
Speaker 1: where I listened to the commentary and I'm pretty sure
Speaker 1: I remember you saying something about a bunch of PA's
Speaker 1: you had to have them drive really slow in the
Speaker 1: four h five to create traffic. Yeah, that's true. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I work in production also, and I'm constantly asking
Speaker 1: our pas to do crazy shit. I've had to do
Speaker 1: crazy shit. So I'm wondering, what is your guys, what's
Speaker 1: the craziest thing you guys have had to do early
Speaker 1: on in your career? Um? Oh wow, gosh, questions. Those
Speaker 1: good questions. Yeah, Pa, I had to do a lot
Speaker 1: of there's a lot of stuff as a PA that
Speaker 1: was just stupid and dangerous. They would have us go
Speaker 1: lock up when you're when you're up precious of these
Speaker 1: table go lock up that street, meaning don't let anyone
Speaker 1: come down it, and it would be like in a
Speaker 1: really dangerous neighborhood at night, and I'd be like the
Speaker 1: little nerdy kid, like being like, excuse me, everyone, you're
Speaker 1: not allowed to come down the street. If you'll be
Speaker 1: like fuck you, I'd be like, uh, guys, guys, we're
Speaker 1: making a video and like and there were a few times,
Speaker 1: there are many many times in Manhattan and at night
Speaker 1: where I really almost got my ass kicked begging people
Speaker 1: to not walk down a street because we were making
Speaker 1: some like Mariah Carey video or something. You're probably really
Speaker 1: then I was a good PA because the recipes were
Speaker 1: getting high in the fucking cube truck and like not
Speaker 1: doing and they I was so into it. I wanted
Speaker 1: to be a director art so badly. I wanted to
Speaker 1: be a filmmaker so badly. So they come over the
Speaker 1: walking to be like we need PA's doing this, and
Speaker 1: like no one would reply, so I'd be like I'm
Speaker 1: on it, and I'd run over there and do it.
Speaker 1: And then they'd be like, Okay, now we need a
Speaker 1: PA to be doing this, and I'd be like, no answer,
Speaker 1: because they're all just fucking getting high. And I'd be like,
Speaker 1: I'll do that too, and like, so I was just
Speaker 1: running all over the place. I was like, I wanted
Speaker 1: to be like the best PA in the history of PA's.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what about you, Donald? Did you have
Speaker 1: any odd crazy jobs someone made you do? No, because
Speaker 1: you kind of got it. You were working early, you know,
Speaker 1: you never had a real job. No, I did have
Speaker 1: a real job. Actually, it's an interesting story. So after
Speaker 1: I had I had a little bit of success early
Speaker 1: or on in my career, Like I did a bunch
Speaker 1: of commercials and stuff like that. And because of that, I,
Speaker 1: you know, as a young actor in New York City,
Speaker 1: I would always go to my agent's office and hang out,
Speaker 1: and so I got to know my agents and made
Speaker 1: my face very recognizable so that if anything came through,
Speaker 1: they would be like, yeah, we're gonna send Donald down
Speaker 1: on this. I made myself so available there that they
Speaker 1: needed somebody to work at the front desk. And I
Speaker 1: was like, yo, you know what, I'll take the job.
Speaker 1: I'll take the job. I'll do that. And they were like, okay, bet.
Speaker 1: And so I learned what it was like to be
Speaker 1: an agent. I sat, I you know, looked at breakdowns.
Speaker 1: I you know, the agents, would you know, write down
Speaker 1: the the art the actors or artists who they wanted
Speaker 1: to go out for these parts, and I would, you know,
Speaker 1: have to type it all up and write the letter
Speaker 1: and send it out to all of the casting directors
Speaker 1: for the submissions. Right I got. I didn't get good
Speaker 1: at it, but this was a great way for me
Speaker 1: to submit myself on things that I really wanted to
Speaker 1: be in. Like if if it came through and my
Speaker 1: name wasn't on it, I would secretly type my name
Speaker 1: into that shouldn't be like Donald Phazon and I put
Speaker 1: my my my head shot in and send it out
Speaker 1: for submissions. I think it clueless, and I got to
Speaker 1: go out of town for a really long time. But
Speaker 1: I want to keep the job because, you know, as
Speaker 1: an actor, you're like, I gotta you gotta make I'm
Speaker 1: making money and I'm getting a paychecks, so I'm able
Speaker 1: to buy the shit I want. And I asked my
Speaker 1: mom and I'm like, Mom, will you take over for me?
Speaker 1: Will you work the desk for me? And she was like, yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: no problem. And so while I'm away doing Clueless, she
Speaker 1: works this job for me. And when I come back,
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, Mom, I want my job back. And
Speaker 1: the agents at my agency were like, no, you know what, Donald,
Speaker 1: that's no longer your job. We want to give it
Speaker 1: to your mom. And I was like what, and they
Speaker 1: were like, yeah, we're gonna We're gonna give it to
Speaker 1: your mom, and your mom is gonna work as the
Speaker 1: front end. So my mom was already working in theater
Speaker 1: and she was like a director at the National Black
Speaker 1: Theater in hallm and she, you know, she'd worked with
Speaker 1: a bunch of actors in the community and everything like that,
Speaker 1: and so she had a real her finger on the
Speaker 1: pulse when it came to young African American or old
Speaker 1: African American actors in New York City. And as time
Speaker 1: went on, working at the front desk, she then moved
Speaker 1: on to become, you know, an agent, and you know, well,
Speaker 1: she tapped into the community that she, you know, knew
Speaker 1: very well and now has so many people working on Broadway.
Speaker 1: She's broke so Las Lonzo, she broke him, like you know,
Speaker 1: to this day when I run into there's so many
Speaker 1: times I run into African American actors in New York
Speaker 1: and their way into me is like yo, yo, surely
Speaker 1: phaseon's my agent, Like they like they know that that's
Speaker 1: the way to start talking to me. Because the Donalds
Speaker 1: it gets, it gets bigger than that though, and then
Speaker 1: it turns into my mom is now you know, working
Speaker 1: with all of these like they're Leah Michelle, Kristen Bell
Speaker 1: like the so she beat the finding your mom took
Speaker 1: your desk job, and then it's like working girls, you
Speaker 1: all of a sudden became like a super powerful agent.
Speaker 1: Within a few years, this happened, and it was all
Speaker 1: because of this odd job that I wanted. Like this
Speaker 1: wasn't a I don't know that many actors that work
Speaker 1: at their agent's office. That just doesn't sound trivia about you. See,
Speaker 1: even I am learning Donalda trivia on this very podcast
Speaker 1: for you. Manuck you man, I ain't gonna be I'm
Speaker 1: not sexy enough for you, So fuck you man. You
Speaker 1: ain't no no trivia about me. You don't care about me,
Speaker 1: You don't even think I'm trisy. You know you may
Speaker 1: have had a shot at that if your wife would
Speaker 1: allow you to have your ass bopping up and down
Speaker 1: on that fucking show. Women, women and gay men really
Speaker 1: like to see a man's ass bounce in a sex
Speaker 1: scene on TV, right, Joel a man? Honestly, the sex scenes,
Speaker 1: I don't know what is wrong with me. They make
Speaker 1: me so uncomfortable. I know, I agree, says you know
Speaker 1: how the sausage is made. You see it, You see
Speaker 1: the exactly what I'm talking about. Do you remember makes
Speaker 1: you uncomfortable? Makes you uncomfortable, Zach, But you are thrusting.
Speaker 1: You're throwing me into the fucking fire. No, I wanted
Speaker 1: to say something. I want to see your ass. I
Speaker 1: want to see your ass, if you feel if I had,
Speaker 1: if I had your ass, I would write sex scenes
Speaker 1: into my own movies and just bounce my shit. No,
Speaker 1: but listen, do you guys remember when we were growing up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then for some reason, the character's ass is bouncing.
Speaker 1: When we were growing up, every fucking movie it was like,
Speaker 1: and now it's time for the sex scene. It was
Speaker 1: like incorporated into the movie. You know. I was eleven
Speaker 1: watching Garden State with no sex scene. We cut around it,
Speaker 1: We cut around people. The people scene. Oh that yeah, sorry.
Speaker 1: I remember being like, oh, but that was meant to
Speaker 1: be out. That was meant to be outrageous. But like
Speaker 1: the Natalie scene, and we weren't about to do like
Speaker 1: a fucking sex scene. We like, we start making out
Speaker 1: and then you cut to us cuddling. But do you
Speaker 1: remember like it was like you couldn't have a movie
Speaker 1: back in the day where it was like the music
Speaker 1: would start and they'd be shooting through like the foggy
Speaker 1: of lens and you'd like, oh my god, it's time
Speaker 1: and people would liked it. It was like a turnout.
Speaker 1: I guess it was like, oh this Maybe it was
Speaker 1: like people are on a date and this is gonna
Speaker 1: get them riled up to go home and hook up.
Speaker 1: But now, yes, now in movies, I think it's it's
Speaker 1: pretty odd right to see like a real sex scene
Speaker 1: unless there's an unless there's a genuine reason for it.
Speaker 1: When it cuts like, you just want to like, okay,
Speaker 1: they start making out and then cut to later. We
Speaker 1: don't need to see them fucking fuck unless of course
Speaker 1: they have Donald's ass. What do you guys think on
Speaker 1: this topic. Yeah. I find sex scenes uncomfortable now in
Speaker 1: movie theaters, mainly because I, you know, I try movies
Speaker 1: that were acceptable to us when we were younger. I
Speaker 1: can't show my kids now, and so movies that come
Speaker 1: on and all of a sudden something that's very sexual.
Speaker 1: And I like the fact. I'm sorry, but I like
Speaker 1: the fact that my kids have no idea what sexual
Speaker 1: what sexuality is, what you know, what you know? I
Speaker 1: love that fact about them right now, and they don't
Speaker 1: need to learn about that. And I don't want to
Speaker 1: tank that. I don't want them to have to see
Speaker 1: that until they're ready. And I don't me personally, I
Speaker 1: don't think as seven year old in a five year old, right,
Speaker 1: I'm just talking about like that change in this. I'm
Speaker 1: not talking about like that. Joel, what do you write
Speaker 1: thoughts on this? You're a pop culture expert. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think as sex scenes are good if they are improving
Speaker 1: the story, if they're telling story. I don't like when
Speaker 1: it's like and now, like two hot people smashing bodies.
Speaker 1: It's weird. But like normal People. The series on Hulu
Speaker 1: like those sex scenes, like show how the characters evolve
Speaker 1: through time and over their relationship and they're like essential
Speaker 1: to the storytelling, and so I feel like yes, and
Speaker 1: also like what you're gonna ask me? You guys are
Speaker 1: actual actors, but I always feel like it's weird to
Speaker 1: ask actors to perform them if it's not pertinent to
Speaker 1: the story, Like who is this for? What's happening? I
Speaker 1: disagree with you, guys. I think sexy. I think sex
Speaker 1: scenes making me uncomfortable, but I think they're I think
Speaker 1: everybody loved Game of Thrones and that had some ridiculous,
Speaker 1: you know, sex scenes in it that had nothing to
Speaker 1: do with pushing the story forward, you know, and so
Speaker 1: in the beginning they did. Then they started becoming right
Speaker 1: like weird, I thought. And also also to that point,
Speaker 1: Amelia Clark decided she was not doing any more nude
Speaker 1: scenes after the reactions to all that stuff. So I
Speaker 1: think there was a bit of a gratuitous nature to
Speaker 1: it that kind of soured what Maybe even George Armidine
Speaker 1: was upset with the way some of them days, like
Speaker 1: this is not how they were written in the book
Speaker 1: or why they were there. Well, she did, but that
Speaker 1: didn't stop them from having them in the show. And
Speaker 1: it was it was it was very prominent in the show,
Speaker 1: and we all watched and loved that show. So we
Speaker 1: can't really say I'm just in the last episode. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying that, I'm saying last scenes. I'm just saying
Speaker 1: the eighties and nineties, in a lot of R rated movies,
Speaker 1: it was like if I felt like people thought it
Speaker 1: was mandator, you went to an R rated movie, you
Speaker 1: went on your date. Where's our sex scene? You know?
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, Some of my favorite movies didn't
Speaker 1: have sex scenes in them, like The Breakfast Club or
Speaker 1: I'm talking about like we could go through all the
Speaker 1: John Hughes movie. These are big ass movies for that time. Though,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, you're picking the wrong genre.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about our rated sort of thriller at the time.
Speaker 1: At the time those movies were out, though, we were like,
Speaker 1: not every movie has no sex scene. Like Annie, for example,
Speaker 1: no sex scenes and Annie, Miss Hannigan never rides you
Speaker 1: just they cut it. That would have been the best
Speaker 1: musical number ever. That would have been the best musical
Speaker 1: number ever. Not Life. What's the one? What's the one? Man?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry you had to see that, all right? A man, No,
Speaker 1: it's time for everyone's favorite segment, tunneld Stoff laughing. But
Speaker 1: I think I've won you back. Ready, it's time too
Speaker 1: fix your life? All right, how can we help our
Speaker 1: favorite Jersey girl? Um? All right, well, so this is
Speaker 1: not just fixing my life, it's going to fix basically
Speaker 1: all of my friends lives also on it. Ready. So
Speaker 1: I I mean, I just turned twenty seven. It's quarantine
Speaker 1: and I'm like newly single, all these different things. I
Speaker 1: think I'm in the throes of a quarter life crisis. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how does one get through a quarter life crisis? You
Speaker 1: gotta go through. But there is work you can do.
Speaker 1: There are there are books and podcasts and seminars, and
Speaker 1: one can take action. That's what I think. I think
Speaker 1: i've When I was going through a lot of that stuff,
Speaker 1: I did a lot of work on myself. Some of
Speaker 1: it was as simple as a therapist mum, just to
Speaker 1: get myself talking. But I would ask for self help
Speaker 1: book recommendations. I took workshops. I you know, there's all
Speaker 1: now there's Ted Talks, I mean, there's you can't just
Speaker 1: sit back, like my attitude about life when you're in
Speaker 1: crisis mode, if even if it's mild or real crisis,
Speaker 1: like in this episode there's a suicidal story. Is that
Speaker 1: you have to be proactive. You have you You can't
Speaker 1: just sit and wait for it to fix itself. You
Speaker 1: have to to to take steps to to do the work.
Speaker 1: I mean, I have fired so many therapists just because
Speaker 1: I always pick fights with them, because that's the kind
Speaker 1: of person I am. But my brother just told me
Speaker 1: to read this book The Art of Not Giving a
Speaker 1: Fuck or something. But yeah, you guys have any books
Speaker 1: that you recommend. I'm not a strong reader, so you know,
Speaker 1: Donald only reads the back of the Star Wars video
Speaker 1: game box and then also on Star Wars comics are
Speaker 1: also in terms of dating, which always cheers people up. Um,
Speaker 1: are you are you actively trying? Are you on the apps?
Speaker 1: Are you trying to meet somebody new? Yeah? I'm on
Speaker 1: the apps the apps just like I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's just my area, what produced like a certain lot
Speaker 1: of bros. You got a lot of bros there. You
Speaker 1: maybe have to go to Manhattan, you know, and I
Speaker 1: change my location in Manhattan. I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: like I'm not playing the app game right or what,
Speaker 1: but I either the people either don't get any action
Speaker 1: on the apps or the action I get is like
Speaker 1: and literally forgive me. But like the first messages sit
Speaker 1: on my face and I'm like, you're not wanted to take. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's funny that that's someone's pickup line, sit on my face.
Speaker 1: I've gotten that three times important to Wow. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: Wow these apps, man, Joel, don't worry. We're gonna find
Speaker 1: you a good one. Not not whatever one she's on. Okay, good,
Speaker 1: I look forward to kind of we're trying to set
Speaker 1: Joell up. No one's gonna say sit on my face
Speaker 1: to you, Jowell. We're gonna protect you. Thank you. Um well,
Speaker 1: at least not on the first freaking DM. That's very weird.
Speaker 1: Something Hi first, then app at least be like, Hi,
Speaker 1: my name is Roger, sit on my face at least
Speaker 1: that right. Do you mind if I give Amanda some
Speaker 1: advice on this quarterlife crisis situation? Yes? Please, you're way
Speaker 1: smarter one than anybody You're probably Yeah, you're the one
Speaker 1: to go to for this. I recently having come out
Speaker 1: of my quarterliine crisis twenty five, twenty seven. Okay, okay, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: So you're getting toward the end of the craziness, right,
Speaker 1: And the best advice I got at that age was like,
Speaker 1: twenty eight and twenty nine are going to be so hard.
Speaker 1: But all the work that you're doing, all the stuff
Speaker 1: you're pushing through, all the things you're discovering about yourself,
Speaker 1: all the people you're dating and rejecting or trying to accept,
Speaker 1: all the friendships that will either fall apart or strengthened
Speaker 1: during this time, Like all of that will solidify by
Speaker 1: thirty and then it's like I've learned all of the lessons, right,
Speaker 1: the very challenging part of your late twenties is over,
Speaker 1: and like by the time you hit thirty, it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I get what I had to go through all of that.
Speaker 1: So it sucks when you're in it, but like, don't panic.
Speaker 1: It's how it's supposed to be. It's the struggle is
Speaker 1: fortifying you for all of the great things that are
Speaker 1: about to happen. Right, And you're like very solid in
Speaker 1: your career. It sounds like it sounds like you've developed
Speaker 1: a strong voice. You clearly seem to know yourself pretty well,
Speaker 1: so you know yourself in time. Maybe find a therapist
Speaker 1: that knows how to fight you back. My therapist constantly
Speaker 1: looks at me and goes, you know, uh, is that
Speaker 1: real what you're telling about? Oh? Maybe not. It's like right,
Speaker 1: so you know, let's steal direction. Also, what I remember
Speaker 1: writing when I about Garden State was that I felt
Speaker 1: like my teen years were my body's puberty and my
Speaker 1: twenty years were my mind's puberty. Yes, because there's so
Speaker 1: much happening. You're figuring out who you are, who you
Speaker 1: want to be, what kind of relationship you truly want,
Speaker 1: what kind of job you want, where you want to live.
Speaker 1: Like all of this is happening, and it's changing all
Speaker 1: the time, just like when you're going through puberty, changes
Speaker 1: and you're like, what the fuck is this new feeling
Speaker 1: that's happening in your mind? So I would A big
Speaker 1: thing I would see to is don't make it wrong,
Speaker 1: Like this is normal. I think people start having panic
Speaker 1: attacks when they go what's wrong with me? It's like you,
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, as you know, I made a
Speaker 1: fucking movie about it, Like this is this is very
Speaker 1: very very normal everything that's happened, and so many people
Speaker 1: are going through what you're going through. I can I
Speaker 1: not to sound like the downer of it. But I
Speaker 1: think everybody's in crisis always, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I think life is so exhausting as it is that
Speaker 1: we're always like, when this is over, you're going to
Speaker 1: find something else to fixate on and focus on and
Speaker 1: and and that'll be your next dilemma. But for the
Speaker 1: most part, you have to go through it and know
Speaker 1: that this is a journey and know that you're doing this.
Speaker 1: Everything that you're doing now is setting up what comes later.
Speaker 1: And I think, yeah, you know, I don't recall my
Speaker 1: twenties being a crisis, and maybe because I numbed it
Speaker 1: by going out and partying and experiencing. You know, being
Speaker 1: in a pandemic doesn't necessarily help where we're you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, that kind of extra You're going through
Speaker 1: these feelings and the dating conundrum during a pandemic, which
Speaker 1: is just so extra hard, and I really really feel
Speaker 1: for you. I don't understand people who date on the
Speaker 1: apps in the middle of COVID. I'm like, you're gonna
Speaker 1: get it, you know what I mean, Russian Roulette, and
Speaker 1: especially if you're sitting on people's faces. All right. I
Speaker 1: don't know if we've fixed your life, but we at
Speaker 1: least are here to cheer you on and say we
Speaker 1: care about you and you're not alone. And I'm a
Speaker 1: big proponent of therapy. We promote a couple of the
Speaker 1: different apps on here that I have not just bullshit
Speaker 1: because we promote them. I have friends that use them
Speaker 1: and really have gotten great results from them. Good thing
Speaker 1: about them is if you don't like the person on
Speaker 1: the first try, you can just keep changing until you
Speaker 1: find somebody you like. And I think people have gotten
Speaker 1: good results of that. Just I know a lot about
Speaker 1: therapy because I have two parents that are psychologists. So
Speaker 1: I've gotten a lot of success out of a type
Speaker 1: of therapy called someone who's a cognitive behaviorist, because I've
Speaker 1: done enough talking about my past. I've done enough like
Speaker 1: oh I was sad when they made fun of me.
Speaker 1: And at this point, a cognitive behavior is a little
Speaker 1: more like let's talk about the plan. It's a little
Speaker 1: more like a coach being like, here's the plan for
Speaker 1: this week. You don't want the X to happen, then
Speaker 1: we're gonna do why you want you want to be
Speaker 1: more like this, then we're gonna do this. So if
Speaker 1: that that type of therapist has been very helpful to
Speaker 1: me in my life. You might seek someone like that
Speaker 1: out a life coach. Yeah, and and because I some
Speaker 1: people like to lie on a couch and and talk
Speaker 1: about the pain they've experienced, and that works and is helpful,
Speaker 1: and some people need to do that. I'm not minimizing it.
Speaker 1: I've done plenty of it, I'll be saying at this
Speaker 1: point in my life. And again, I'm much older than you,
Speaker 1: but I've gotten a lot of help out of someone
Speaker 1: who's like, Okay, I hear what you're feeling. I hear
Speaker 1: where you want to get to. I hear that you're
Speaker 1: stressed about this or this. Here's the plan for this
Speaker 1: week that's going to be put in place by us
Speaker 1: as a team to make you get there. And that
Speaker 1: could be finding a partner, that could be finding a job,
Speaker 1: that could be whatever you fucking want it to be.
Speaker 1: I would also just like to add one thing to
Speaker 1: what Zach is saying, is that, like, when you're doing
Speaker 1: your googles for this kind of thing, make sure that
Speaker 1: you search both words like life coach, but all so
Speaker 1: specifically cognitive behavioral therapy, because they're different things that have
Speaker 1: similar goals and you just might get people who are
Speaker 1: life coaches who are going to help you work through stuff.
Speaker 1: But I really back up what Zach is saying when
Speaker 1: you can have someone who's professional with experience give you
Speaker 1: like a b C. And that's really going to come
Speaker 1: from a cognitive behavioral therapist. And I always feel, because
Speaker 1: I know I'm going to talk to him once a
Speaker 1: week that I it's like I have to have my
Speaker 1: homework done like to I want to impress him. So
Speaker 1: I'm always like, Oh, I'm gonna do that shit I
Speaker 1: promised him I would do because I made a commitment. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm rambling. I think we can say you're welcome, right, Donald,
Speaker 1: Can we say you're welcome? I mean, I mean maybe
Speaker 1: half you're welcome. No, we could say you're welcome. We've
Speaker 1: said her on a path, We've given her, We've given
Speaker 1: her some tools that she can use to better herself
Speaker 1: and take this journey that she's on into a positive
Speaker 1: direction and not fall into the abyss that is most depression.
Speaker 1: The most powerful thing you need to know is that
Speaker 1: you are not alone. You are not alone. Everybody deals
Speaker 1: with this shit. I think some people spiral out because
Speaker 1: they go, what's wrong with me? No, what's wrong with
Speaker 1: you is that you're human being. And everybody deals with
Speaker 1: this and all these people you see on TV and
Speaker 1: the reality shows living these fucking bullshit lives, it's all bullshit.
Speaker 1: They deal with it too, And you are not alone.
Speaker 1: Everybody goes through it, Okay, no one's No one's truly happy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well no, some people are happy. But I but but
Speaker 1: everybody has their demons, they battle, everybody has their their
Speaker 1: their sources of pain and uh, and I think it's
Speaker 1: very important for you to know that you're not alone.
Speaker 1: All right, Amanda, my favorite Jersey girl. Let's take a break.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. After these fine words. We gotta
Speaker 1: talk more about what the show. Dude. People get mad
Speaker 1: that we don't talk about the show enough. We got
Speaker 1: to talk more about the show. Are you telling me
Speaker 1: people have grievances with the show? Oh? Fucking people have
Speaker 1: very grievance. Grievance is a new segment that um I
Speaker 1: call grievance. Geez, you guys have had Brendan Fraser Tera
Speaker 1: read other lock leer Jason R. You have so many
Speaker 1: interesting guests on the show, and you know you haven't
Speaker 1: had is one writer of the show not one. They
Speaker 1: listen to it, they know and uh so here's the uh,
Speaker 1: the tough grievance moment for you guys is what follows
Speaker 1: is three single sentences from three different writers that were
Speaker 1: on this show from multiple of years. There will probably
Speaker 1: be a clue in their sentence. But unless you can
Speaker 1: identify these three writers by the sentence clue, I'm afraid
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to pull the plug on our podcast. Already,
Speaker 1: get your thinking. Wait, wait, I have a question, Daniel.
Speaker 1: These are sentences that Bill's gonna say that we should
Speaker 1: know who. Oh, the writers themselves. The writers themselves have
Speaker 1: submitted three sentences. Of course you're gonna know. All three
Speaker 1: sentences are going to play out. There's a tiny space
Speaker 1: between each one, and then the answer is a separate file.
Speaker 1: But we'll let everybody else right already write down your answers,
Speaker 1: because it's it's they're gonna play him in an order.
Speaker 1: Everybody ready, there's a small bit of silence in between
Speaker 1: each one. Okay, I have a lot of kids. I
Speaker 1: like musical theater, and I don't listen on Fridays, which
Speaker 1: is today, so I'm not listening Jewish, all right, all right,
Speaker 1: I got them off. Okay, I think I got them too,
Speaker 1: all right. The first one's Tim Hobert. Easy, Tim Hobert. Gabby.
Speaker 1: Gabby is the second one, and uh, I think are
Speaker 1: you guys ready? Yeah? Oh my god, you guys better
Speaker 1: have gotten Tim Horbert, Gabby, Allen Greenberg and Neil gold or. Um. Well,
Speaker 1: I mean, I gotta be honest with the podcast is over.
Speaker 1: That would out a lot of people, as I do
Speaker 1: love my podcast. That was the easiest. I like that
Speaker 1: game though. Yeah, that was easy though. That was really
Speaker 1: easy though. That was fun though it was good to
Speaker 1: hear their voices. Also, No, no, we're going along, Daniel,
Speaker 1: We're going along. We're already at a barely talked about
Speaker 1: the fucking show. We gotta speed through it now. Um,
Speaker 1: who should we have on? Who do you think would
Speaker 1: be the best guest of those three? I mean they'd
Speaker 1: all be good, don't get me wrong, But who would
Speaker 1: you Who should we choose first? I think I honestly
Speaker 1: believe that we should break them off into little groups,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Well, Gabby, by the way, Gabby,
Speaker 1: in terms of coming up next, Um, Gabby, I'm is
Speaker 1: the first. I'm looking at the schedule is wrote, for
Speaker 1: some reason wrote the next two that's impossible, but she was, Yeah,
Speaker 1: so maybe Gabby, let's let's reach out and see if
Speaker 1: she wants to do it. Okay, Joel, will you get
Speaker 1: I don't have for I might not have her email anymore.
Speaker 1: Will you get her from us? Yeah? Absolutely? And I'm
Speaker 1: sure everyone would also like to heal from a very
Speaker 1: successful female comedy writer in Hollywood. Who wouldn't love her?
Speaker 1: About that? Absolutely? Um, can we talk about this fucking
Speaker 1: show Scrubs? Donald? Why do you have to put that
Speaker 1: type of handle on it? Oh? What about? Why is
Speaker 1: that guy sitting next to the dartboard in a bar?
Speaker 1: That guy is the worst seat in the world. He's
Speaker 1: literally sitting next to a dartboard as Sarah and uh
Speaker 1: and and and Judy try and throw darts. I was like,
Speaker 1: that's a bad seat, buddy, Yeah it was. I think
Speaker 1: it's for comedy. Yes, I had a feeling it was
Speaker 1: for comedy. I think it's for comedy. Patrick Bolton, our
Speaker 1: set dresser friend, was the bartender in that scene. How
Speaker 1: about Elliott having hair on her lower back? Yes, I
Speaker 1: think a lot of women probably do have a thin
Speaker 1: layer of hair back there. Okay, I don't know, Um,
Speaker 1: Eric Strata paunch. That was great, right, Eric Strata one
Speaker 1: of my heroes as a youth. Everyone meets Chips. I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, my dad was so anti gun, um
Speaker 1: that we were not allowed to have toy guns. And
Speaker 1: he was so anti toy gun that when I had
Speaker 1: the John doll, they it was like a Ken doll
Speaker 1: sized John from Chips. He took the little one centimeter
Speaker 1: gun away from me. Wouldn't love to have the Chips gun.
Speaker 1: That's how anti gun my dad was. Yeah, well you know,
Speaker 1: so sorry, That's that's how it is. Oh, I should
Speaker 1: buy that doll on eBay and and and play with
Speaker 1: the gun. Um. We Donald and I did a very
Speaker 1: funny photo shoot. I don't know if we've mentioned this before.
Speaker 1: You guys can google it. Um. It was for People
Speaker 1: a magazine. Any think Donald and uh we dressed up
Speaker 1: like Eric Estrada and John from Chips. We did. And
Speaker 1: because I have blonde hair, I have a wig on.
Speaker 1: I assume everyone, of course says I look like Dak
Speaker 1: Shepherd like they do, no matter what I fucking do,
Speaker 1: because and because and because I put a wig on,
Speaker 1: and I looked like Bruno mars. I had a possibility
Speaker 1: at that time to be one of America's most sexiest
Speaker 1: men or people's most sexiest men, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: which was really interesting. And then John and then you know,
Speaker 1: Dax went on to make the Chips movie, which is
Speaker 1: too which which you know, I was happy for him
Speaker 1: because he's an awesome guy. But you know, you and
Speaker 1: I would have been a great punch and John, I
Speaker 1: can't play punch man. No, you don't have to be
Speaker 1: a Hispanic pounch. You could be African American zaunch. I didn't.
Speaker 1: I think I think we're doing a disservice to all
Speaker 1: of the Latino We don't have to do the exact thing.
Speaker 1: And we could do California Highway patrol on motorcyle anyway.
Speaker 1: We can't do anyway. Dacks to it all right. One
Speaker 1: of my favorite lines in the show, Sweet Dancing Jehovah,
Speaker 1: I punctured my brain. Yeah, I laughed at that one.
Speaker 1: That was funny. Kelso deaf and everyone every time he
Speaker 1: walks by just saying all that ship to him, yes,
Speaker 1: and then and then and then ted missing the missing
Speaker 1: the bus and coming in a little too late, giving
Speaker 1: him the business. He goes there, you are you, Jeff bastard?
Speaker 1: He was like, It's like no one had told Ted
Speaker 1: until it was too late, and he finally he had
Speaker 1: it all. He had it all stored up ready to go.
Speaker 1: That was fucking funny. Like, dude, like you've over time.
Speaker 1: You kind of gotta feel sorry for Ted man, Like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, dude, it's like, first of all, his
Speaker 1: boss is a jerk to him, and then second of
Speaker 1: all he never seems to catch a break ever, think
Speaker 1: nothing ever works out for him, ever works out for him?
Speaker 1: What about Whack and Nubi at the carnival? Whack and
Speaker 1: Nubia canub Yeah? Yeah? What about the fact that JD
Speaker 1: can't get I can't use the giant mallet to get
Speaker 1: the to ring the bell at the carnival? Also yeah,
Speaker 1: I can, by the way, But you know what is
Speaker 1: true about me? If one thing that is true about me,
Speaker 1: and you can call me a nerd or a dorc
Speaker 1: or a what other other synonyms are there? Guys, you
Speaker 1: haven't said one bad word yet. I do get nauseous
Speaker 1: on rides, Oh oh, I really do. First of all,
Speaker 1: I cannot fuck with like a teacup situation for your
Speaker 1: whole life, your whole life. Yeah, I don't like them.
Speaker 1: I will go on a fast roller coaster that's straight
Speaker 1: and fast and takes big curves. I'm fine with that,
Speaker 1: but I cannot do anything spinning. I don't like the
Speaker 1: fucking thing that drops this mansion. Yeah, I've done that.
Speaker 1: It makes you want to pukes. You know that cheap
Speaker 1: it's the cheap thing that spins and the floor drops out. Yeah. No,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh. Yeah. You know what, as I've gotten older,
Speaker 1: there's certain things that I can't do anymore. Like I
Speaker 1: used to be able to get on roller coasters and
Speaker 1: all of that stuff no problem, and get on them
Speaker 1: over and over again. My fortieth birthday, we went to Disneyland,
Speaker 1: and I remember this very well because Disney sponsored the
Speaker 1: trip and they hooked it up to where I we
Speaker 1: you know, we had a guide and everything. They hooked
Speaker 1: it up for a person who's worked for Disney for
Speaker 1: a really long time, and we were able to get
Speaker 1: on the California Scream like five times in a row.
Speaker 1: That the loop. Do you want to go again? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Do you want to go again? Yeah? We want to
Speaker 1: go again? And we did it again. Do you want
Speaker 1: to go again? Yeah, we want to go again. And
Speaker 1: we did it again. Do you want to go again?
Speaker 1: I don't know, Yeah, we want to we had. I
Speaker 1: bought all my This is the thing that I like
Speaker 1: to do for my birthday. I like to invite all
Speaker 1: of my friends and their kids and let the kids
Speaker 1: have fun because I like to have h like a
Speaker 1: like I'm a Disneyland type of birthday, Like I'm a
Speaker 1: forty six year old man who likes to go to Disneyland.
Speaker 1: Like okay, so anyway, did my nephews, my nieces, my
Speaker 1: freaking you know, a bunch of youth is with us?
Speaker 1: You want to go again? Yeah, we want to go again?
Speaker 1: To kids, I'm like, oh no, I don't think I
Speaker 1: can do it for the rest of the day. You
Speaker 1: know when you get that when you get that nauseous,
Speaker 1: that's like when you make this sound. Okay, it's the sound.
Speaker 1: It's you're trying to freaking relax your mouth from you
Speaker 1: know how you get water. I did not puke, but
Speaker 1: for the rest of the day, I had to go.
Speaker 1: For the rest of the day, I was going like
Speaker 1: this though. I went trying to get my tongue to
Speaker 1: get that nauseous, and everyone was like, we're going again.
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm not. And I was like I
Speaker 1: was like the parent, like waited by the exit for everybody.
Speaker 1: That's that's that. Yeah, it ruined the not my birthday,
Speaker 1: but it ruined the fact that I was like, I
Speaker 1: don't know if I'll e get on roller coasters again.
Speaker 1: And so since then, I can only do roller coasters
Speaker 1: one time, and when I get off, I always feel
Speaker 1: that little bit of nausea that oh oh, that's robot
Speaker 1: for goodnight. I mean, what the hell was that? I
Speaker 1: must have I made that up. I don't know what
Speaker 1: the hell was going on there. How about the janitor
Speaker 1: getting a freaking new job because and he turned it
Speaker 1: into like a radio show where he's freaking dissing people.
Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of being dorky, I was the
Speaker 1: guy in high school who did the announcements really cool, yes,
Speaker 1: And I remember thinking, I mean, you know, with a
Speaker 1: group from all four years there was four years, there
Speaker 1: was four ye team. There was no it was there
Speaker 1: was a team. You know, you had your sports team. Well,
Speaker 1: I had my announcements team team in high school. No,
Speaker 1: I'm making a joke saying like you know like as
Speaker 1: there was a team and we had like we had
Speaker 1: like practice where we'd be like, Mummy made me match
Speaker 1: my ama the lips of the typices in the tongue. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would do the announcements and I remember thinking I
Speaker 1: was really cool doing the announcements. It's powerful. Um did
Speaker 1: you play like did you play like a xylophone where
Speaker 1: you like do do do dode? No? I remember, I remember.
Speaker 1: I think we had to do the pledge of allegiance. Uh,
Speaker 1: and it was written down so you didn't fuck it up,
Speaker 1: little mistake. I think it's sixteen thirteen. In Nicole Sullivan's
Speaker 1: room when we're the last time we're meeting with her,
Speaker 1: there's no door on the hinges. If you're someone who
Speaker 1: likes um fuck ups in movies. For some reason, the
Speaker 1: grips must have taken off the hospital room door, but
Speaker 1: you can just see the hinges sitting there. There's no
Speaker 1: door on the room. That's interesting, you know if you
Speaker 1: if you if you caught that, you're not watching the show.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I like to I like to look in
Speaker 1: the both the background and the foreground while I'm doing
Speaker 1: this podcast A dollar because I wanted to love while
Speaker 1: doing them while doing the podcast. Absolutely right. If you're
Speaker 1: if you're listening to and you're wanting to catch fuck
Speaker 1: up some stuff, Yeah, we're gonna try and catch that too.
Speaker 1: But watching movies and watching TV shows now and not
Speaker 1: being able to get into it because I'm noticing what's
Speaker 1: going on in the background, or noticing what's going on
Speaker 1: because of mess ups and stuff like that, I try
Speaker 1: not to do that now. I try to enjoy a
Speaker 1: movie as much as I can. I imagine it's got
Speaker 1: to be very difficult for you, Zach. Being a director,
Speaker 1: I always look at stuff in the background, and sometimes
Speaker 1: it hurts my experience, but that is the price I
Speaker 1: pay for being a movie maker. One of the last
Speaker 1: lines we say is you can never underestimate the importance
Speaker 1: of listening. And I think that's a very simple but
Speaker 1: very smart sense that so much miscommunication comes from no
Speaker 1: one really truly listening to each other. It's hard to listen.
Speaker 1: That's one of the hardest things to do. And you
Speaker 1: know it's it's a simple thing to do, but it's
Speaker 1: actually hard to shut your brain off and listen to
Speaker 1: somebody else's stuff. Yeah, because our brains are going, oh,
Speaker 1: what's the thing I'm going to say next. Oh, he
Speaker 1: just reminded me of a story that now I'm going
Speaker 1: to tell oh, what's for dinner? And I strive to
Speaker 1: be someone that can be truly looking at you and
Speaker 1: listening when you talk to me. That's one of my
Speaker 1: hardest things to do. And I've I've told stories about
Speaker 1: this before, you know, meeting my idols like George Lucas
Speaker 1: and stuff and not being able to listen because I
Speaker 1: was so geeked. It's a it's a it's a really
Speaker 1: good thing if you can listen to someone. And here
Speaker 1: there's because there are so many times in my life
Speaker 1: where if I would have listened, maybe the outcome of
Speaker 1: somebody else's life would have been better. But because I
Speaker 1: was caught up in my own shit and didn't listen,
Speaker 1: things were different. I'm sure everybody feels that. But this isn't.
Speaker 1: This is something that is. This is something that I
Speaker 1: think we all we all take for granted, the ability
Speaker 1: to listen. Yes, so listen to each other and listen
Speaker 1: to us as we end this show and beg you
Speaker 1: to vote. I am literally going to get down on
Speaker 1: my knees and asked you wing. He's clasped his hands together,
Speaker 1: as if praying to a deity. Um, I am, I'm

Speaker 1: got a wait in line. Bring some snacks, bring a

Speaker 1: of this one, try another one. Yes, I just figured
Speaker 1: out how I've been wondering how my dog gets in
Speaker 1: and out of the vegetable garden. And I just caught
Speaker 1: that little bitch. And I can call her a bitch
Speaker 1: because it's a female dog. I just caught how that
Speaker 1: little bitch is getting into my vegetable garden. I just
Speaker 1: saw her sneak out one of the fucking date. Okay,
Speaker 1: problem solved, you guys, go vote. We love you. Oh. Um,

Speaker 1: Bureau dot com uh, and then type in fake doctors

Speaker 1: and you never registered, I think. Just go to iwill
Speaker 1: vote dot com and you can find the answer. Some
Speaker 1: states you can show up on the day there. It
