Speaker 1: There he is, he is. How's it going, everybody? Now? Look,
Speaker 1: Dan and Joel have both changed up their backgrounds, and
Speaker 1: you appear to have a dress case you might wear
Speaker 1: today hanging. No, no, no, no, no, what's that dress
Speaker 1: for you? It's not for me? First of all, hold on,
Speaker 1: how are you now? Well? You don't because you started
Speaker 1: off with some type of rude ship. You know what
Speaker 1: was rude about saying, is Casey gonna wear that dress
Speaker 1: that's hanging? It's a very When I said she wasn't
Speaker 1: gonna wear that today, you automatically asked if it was
Speaker 1: for me. Now, I am one who doesn't mind dress
Speaker 1: is hanging in the background. You, however, seem to have
Speaker 1: a phobia of it. I think my point was in
Speaker 1: the spirits, a phobia, in the spirit of everyone changing
Speaker 1: their backgrounds. All three of you have a new background,
Speaker 1: and you do not. I know you're not drinking coffee.
Speaker 1: I've turned over a new leaf. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you know this, but it's time for another leaf. What
Speaker 1: leaf did you turn over this morning? I've I've turned
Speaker 1: forty six. Yes, thank you everyone, thank you, maring late everyone.
Speaker 1: But Donald's birthday was the twenty second yes, and I
Speaker 1: turned forty six years old. And I want to thank
Speaker 1: everybody for all the love that you've given me. And
Speaker 1: I want to say to all my fans out there
Speaker 1: that listen to the podcast and all of Zack's fans
Speaker 1: that listen to the podcast, it's working. Come joined the
Speaker 1: dark side, combine strength, we can rule this galaxy. I
Speaker 1: saw a lot of talk on my Instagram about how
Speaker 1: how everyone needs to follow Donald and some girl wrote
Speaker 1: you need to help Donald get more followers because he
Speaker 1: quote caught feelings or something like that. I thought that
Speaker 1: was a funny. Did you catch feelings? Who doesn't catch?
Speaker 1: I always catch, always catch feelings? You got feeling about
Speaker 1: by the way, your wife slid into my d MS
Speaker 1: today because she was not happy with the picture I
Speaker 1: posted a view. It's an old picture, by the way, obviously,
Speaker 1: because we're lying on a chaise lounge together and it's
Speaker 1: we're in quarantine. But Donald was during one of his
Speaker 1: heavier periods and his wife slid into my d m
Speaker 1: s to be like, why are you posting that picture
Speaker 1: of top? She said? She said to me, she said,
Speaker 1: did you see the picture of Zach posted? I was
Speaker 1: like yeah, She was like he couldn't crop anything. That's
Speaker 1: what she said. She said, you couldn't he some cropping.
Speaker 1: He couldn't have cropped that. I was like, crop what
Speaker 1: she was like your belly ship? I didn't know. I
Speaker 1: love you so much, I didn't notice that you were
Speaker 1: in that picture having a large belly time. I think
Speaker 1: he looked very handsome and thank you very much. So
Speaker 1: your wife was like crop that ship? Yeah? Right, and
Speaker 1: and and you know, I I think everyone out there
Speaker 1: deserves someone like I have. I have a wonderful woman
Speaker 1: who uh is very supportive and takes care of situations
Speaker 1: that I might be a little bit uh you know,
Speaker 1: apprehensive to no, no, no, yeah, you know instead of
Speaker 1: me being like, well why did ZECH post that? And
Speaker 1: get upset a Zach, I'll stay away from the confrontation
Speaker 1: and the conflict. Whereas my wife's slide no no, no,
Speaker 1: we ain't letting that ship slide was was Zach's number,
Speaker 1: and she will call you. She's like the mom. I
Speaker 1: ain't know some people that are very gifted at photoshop.
Speaker 1: If you want, I could, I could take off some
Speaker 1: pounds from that picture for you. No, no, no, I like,
Speaker 1: I mean, I think all of me is beautiful. Extra.
Speaker 1: I could paint in abs. No, no, no, I think
Speaker 1: I think all like I said, all of me is beautiful,
Speaker 1: even the extra. Just ask my wife. You know. It's
Speaker 1: funny that we're starting off a little bit confrontational because
Speaker 1: in this episode, do you remember what happened? We got
Speaker 1: in the fight? We got in probably our first fight.
Speaker 1: I don't remember when during the lasso thing in the
Speaker 1: I See You fantasy because I was pulling you too hard,
Speaker 1: told me way too hard, and you screamed like a like,
Speaker 1: don't say I got hurt because you were fucking really
Speaker 1: legit yankee me across the ground with your lasso and
Speaker 1: you were like, don't pull me so hard. No, And
Speaker 1: then we got in a fight, and I think the
Speaker 1: rest of that scene we're like not speaking to each other. Really,
Speaker 1: you don't remember this. When I watched this episode, I went, oh,
Speaker 1: that was like our first time we got in a
Speaker 1: legit argument. And then we had to like do the
Speaker 1: rest of the scene, I think, and we were did
Speaker 1: we make up before the rat party, because right after
Speaker 1: this we moved to New York together. We must have
Speaker 1: do it. I think it was like a few day tiff.
Speaker 1: We had a few day, TIFFs, what have you been
Speaker 1: doing with your time? You went away for a bit?
Speaker 1: What did you do? The gall and I to Joshua
Speaker 1: Tree to get out to go to the desert. Did
Speaker 1: you get out? Did you see anything? Did you see rattlesnakes?
Speaker 1: We saw lots of bunnies. I think they're bunnies. Hairs
Speaker 1: are large, right, I don't know if it was a
Speaker 1: hair or bunny. I think it was a bunny. I
Speaker 1: think the hair is really large, and bunnies are really tough.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Man, there's jack rabbits too that are listen.
Speaker 1: The puppy um. Everywhere the puppy went, it was getting
Speaker 1: cactus thorns, thorns in a cactus all over its paws.
Speaker 1: So uh we we didn't know what to do. So
Speaker 1: we got baby socks and we put the baby socks
Speaker 1: on the puppy. But the baby socks kept falling off,
Speaker 1: So then we got rubber bands and tied them around
Speaker 1: the top of the baby socks so their booties would
Speaker 1: stay on the dog's paws. Did it cut the circulation
Speaker 1: off of the dog? We're not idiots, dude. It wasn't
Speaker 1: like super tight, but we did it. So with the
Speaker 1: socks wouldn't fall off. So then the dog is running
Speaker 1: around with four little babies ox on because we must
Speaker 1: have done Oh man, the there was you can't bring
Speaker 1: a dog to Joshua Tree, or if you can, you're
Speaker 1: more experienced dog owner than we are. They the dog
Speaker 1: couldn't figure it out. We couldn't figure it out. Wait,
Speaker 1: so you took you you brought your kid on vacation
Speaker 1: with you. Pretty much, Yeah, that's what you do. You
Speaker 1: could you could have kenneled the dog and then well
Speaker 1: I don't mind a kennel for an older dog. This
Speaker 1: is I mean, especially the kennel we go do as
Speaker 1: like they run around and they're and they're free and
Speaker 1: they're not like caged, and I'm down with that. But
Speaker 1: um but more often than not, I would sooner you
Speaker 1: get a house sitter, some a friend of mine to
Speaker 1: um or or my my assistant to stay here and
Speaker 1: and take care of the dog here. But we it's
Speaker 1: our baby, so you know, you wouldn't want to leave
Speaker 1: your newborn. It's like our newborn. So we we brought
Speaker 1: it to the desert. But it was a mistake because
Speaker 1: now I know in hindsight, they sell like legit dog boots. Oh,
Speaker 1: you need to get your dogs some Elevens man, some
Speaker 1: Jordan Elevens, And that'd be so funny. By the way,
Speaker 1: if they made dogs or dog easies, yeah, well, I
Speaker 1: mean the easiest might be a little bit more expensive
Speaker 1: than the Jordana Levins. You know, dog easies would be hilarious.
Speaker 1: I would if anyone makes those on like Etsy, I'll
Speaker 1: take them. But um, yeah, no, they'd make legit dog booties.
Speaker 1: But we didn't have those, so we we we Jerry
Speaker 1: rigged some baby socks, made a trick to a giant Walmart.
Speaker 1: We gloved up and masked up and and went into
Speaker 1: like the biggest Walmart. So what is the deal? I
Speaker 1: thought you didn't necessarily need to glove up anymore. I was.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just I'm just trying to be as serious.
Speaker 1: You know, cases are spiking here in California, so I'm
Speaker 1: trying to be as serious as possible. But is it true? Okay,
Speaker 1: this is what I read, and I could be wrong,
Speaker 1: Dan Joel, please jump in if I am wrong, and
Speaker 1: if I'm right, jumping as well. But I was under
Speaker 1: the impression that a lot of the spy that we're
Speaker 1: having in California. This all could be propaganda are delayed
Speaker 1: tests that have finally come in, and that we're testing
Speaker 1: more people than most states, and so because of that.
Speaker 1: But the President is broadcasting that. No, I wasn't. I
Speaker 1: didn't get this from the president. I got this from California. Actually,
Speaker 1: the president's broadcasting, yes, that we are getting spikes because
Speaker 1: of our testing situation. But California, from what I was told,
Speaker 1: was we had at least from what I heard from
Speaker 1: Newsom and what I heard from Garcetti and all of
Speaker 1: that stuff like that, is that we had flattened the
Speaker 1: curve and we were climbing. But we were climbing because
Speaker 1: more tests were coming in. Dan, He's very knowledgeable. Dan,
Speaker 1: you honor me Um, you know we are definitely. Donald
Speaker 1: is certainly right that as we test more, we're seeing
Speaker 1: more positive cases. I think the measure of wearing gloves
Speaker 1: at places like the supermarket, I think is not necessarily
Speaker 1: over ill, as you know, you're bringing your germs out
Speaker 1: into the world, and who knows how many of those
Speaker 1: cans someone has already touched, etcetera. I mean, I think
Speaker 1: all safety measures are good. The best one you can
Speaker 1: take is not touching your face before you come back
Speaker 1: and wash your hands, and that we wash our stuff
Speaker 1: too when we go to the grocery store. Same here,
Speaker 1: we we spray and wash everything down. Because you don't
Speaker 1: know if someone with COVID took that off the shelf
Speaker 1: and was like, oh, I don't need it, and then
Speaker 1: you grabbed it exactly. But but from what I heard,
Speaker 1: from what the c d C said, and from what
Speaker 1: a lot of doctors said, it's not necessarily can't necessarily
Speaker 1: get it from surface contact. It has to be it
Speaker 1: droplets and airborne. From what I understand, I don't know
Speaker 1: if that's true. I mean this, this is what the
Speaker 1: CDC is saying. I know, but don't be fucking steering
Speaker 1: our listeners wrong, because you're like, I'm not steering anybody.
Speaker 1: I'm not steering anybody wrong. I'm just saying what I heard.
Speaker 1: I don't know about Djokovic. What about Djokovic. I know
Speaker 1: Djokovic got that ship, dude, Yeah, because he's fucking partying
Speaker 1: with this like and doing like sweaty chest to chest hugs.
Speaker 1: Really you saw this for you know this for a fact.
Speaker 1: I read this on the interwebs that he there's video
Speaker 1: of him raging at like some I think it was
Speaker 1: a Croatian tennis tournament. And then at that tournament they
Speaker 1: were doing like after the match, like sweaty naked, chest
Speaker 1: to chest hugs and now he's out, He's he's about
Speaker 1: to start a tournament, right, Dan wasn't the French openers?
Speaker 1: He got? He got that ship. Are they here? I
Speaker 1: don't want to upset Bill. Are they in the room?
Speaker 1: I can't hear you, Damn Mike. Ironically, the tech wizard
Speaker 1: can't figure out his new fucking mind. It's okay, let's
Speaker 1: have a party. It's the final episode of season one. Hey,
Speaker 1: I love the cheese representing Hi Charlotte Lawrence representing with
Speaker 1: your Charlotte Lawrence merch. Now to remind our listeners, um,
Speaker 1: When COVID began, Krista told Bill that he would be
Speaker 1: She set up a guest room in the house and
Speaker 1: she said, Bill, that's your office. You're allowed to come
Speaker 1: out for lunch, but you worked there nine to five, now,
Speaker 1: right Bill? Yeah, I'm not m I don't think she
Speaker 1: was even comfortable with the idea of me venturing out
Speaker 1: to do this together. So I still have to stay
Speaker 1: down in here. Well, Bill wanted to be in my
Speaker 1: office together doing it, which would have been squished and
Speaker 1: he would have stopped hugged me. So I said, no,
Speaker 1: he's got to go downstairs. We were hoping to get
Speaker 1: h on this listen. I want to tell you they Bill,
Speaker 1: this is so annoying to me because it involves ship
Speaker 1: that you've said. But they sent us, you know, merch
Speaker 1: options for the podcast, and there's like one ug that
Speaker 1: says stop hug. There's another mug that says five six
Speaker 1: seven eight. I'm like, this is all the fucking Bill's jokes.
Speaker 1: Here's the this is the real. I appreciate this. The
Speaker 1: five six seven eights. I think that's funny and that
Speaker 1: doesn't count as one Dan, but um uh five seven eight,
Speaker 1: I'm the boss of this show. We didn't even get
Speaker 1: into two minutes of the wanted to be the first
Speaker 1: one to do this song before the song, so the um.
Speaker 1: But but what bums me out is that stop hug
Speaker 1: is a real and cherished thing and now it's a
Speaker 1: joke that's out there, and I don't like that at all.
Speaker 1: I don't like other people joking. Yeah, it's I think
Speaker 1: it's important in our relationship, and I think you secretly
Speaker 1: love it. No, I don't so a second. Let me
Speaker 1: think this straight, Krista, if stop hug was to go
Speaker 1: away forever, you would be happy. I'd be good. I
Speaker 1: found myself. I found myself recently wanting to hug from
Speaker 1: my girlfriend and when she was busy and I kind
Speaker 1: of tried to do a stop hug, and uh, she
Speaker 1: was not a fan of the stop hug. She was
Speaker 1: making dinner. But I was like, fine, can I have
Speaker 1: a stop hug? You guys can talk. You guys can
Speaker 1: all talk about stop hugs going away as if that's
Speaker 1: a real thing. But it's like a fake premise. They're
Speaker 1: never going away, and they will. They will always always
Speaker 1: be part of my and my wife's life. Listen, you
Speaker 1: know you know who loves to stop. You know who
Speaker 1: loves to stop hug? Case Cobb loves to stop? Really
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, yeah, so I can get I mean, she
Speaker 1: she I take it back. There aren't times where I'm like,
Speaker 1: let's hug and she gives me the face like goddamn it,
Speaker 1: we just did that ship for a minute ago. But Donald, Donald,
Speaker 1: those are the best stop hugs man is when you
Speaker 1: when she rolls her eyes right before we hug, thinking
Speaker 1: about it. Nothing better than when you know for sure
Speaker 1: they don't want it. I mean, we could go into
Speaker 1: a longer discussion about boundaries, but perhaps it's not something
Speaker 1: we want to address. I don't think people want to
Speaker 1: do that on a fun podcast. I think you guys
Speaker 1: are a very adorable couple because you keep it fresh.
Speaker 1: You have a little bit of a bickery banter, but
Speaker 1: you very much love each other. Yes, and that was
Speaker 1: nice to say a little bit of a bickery banter.
Speaker 1: I thought, Well, I've been on I've been on vacation
Speaker 1: with you guys, so I know that at times it
Speaker 1: might peak a little higher and then I get and
Speaker 1: then usually when it peaks, I get a talking to
Speaker 1: from Zach. Yeah, I'm like their therapists when we're on vacation.
Speaker 1: I'll be like guys, guys, guys, both of my parents
Speaker 1: were therapists. Let me let me do a little work
Speaker 1: on Hey Donald, belated, happy birthday, buddy, Thank you, thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. I'm six years old now you're
Speaker 1: a young looking man. Just know that I will accept
Speaker 1: and received that. Thank you very much. Uh. We had
Speaker 1: I had a great day. Yesterday, the day before my
Speaker 1: birthday was Father's Day. So I've had two days in
Speaker 1: a row of just straight up appreciation from my family,
Speaker 1: even if they were faking it. Even if it was fake,
Speaker 1: it wasn't real. It's still warmed my heart for two days.
Speaker 1: And I knew it was fake when at midnight when
Speaker 1: I was like trying to, you know, say good night
Speaker 1: to the wife, she was like, uh, I'm going to bed,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I guess birthdays over. Hyeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's over, you know how Like you know you just said,
Speaker 1: even if it fakes, even if it's fake, it still
Speaker 1: feels great. Yeah. Not not unlike a stophuck. Not unlike
Speaker 1: a stophuk. I've learned. I've learned to appreciate the annoyed
Speaker 1: because I know underneath all of that there is love.
Speaker 1: So you know what I would accept receive. Well, I
Speaker 1: want you guys to know the level of Casey's love.
Speaker 1: Bill and Christa that I posted a really beautiful shot
Speaker 1: of Donald and I today on my Instagram and it
Speaker 1: was it's an old picture obviously because we're lying next
Speaker 1: to Sorry, Oh my god. No, Christie is the CHRISTI
Speaker 1: is the person in my life. Who corrects that the most? Um,
Speaker 1: and I'm nervous. I find myself and I'm about to
Speaker 1: use the enemy, or and I around christa being nervous?
Speaker 1: Be like which one that's a hard one? That's a
Speaker 1: hard one? Christ has a Christ? Do you teach the
Speaker 1: audience your trick? Because I never learned this in school. Well,
Speaker 1: if you're saying a picture with me, then you wouldn't
Speaker 1: say with I right right now? But you told me,
Speaker 1: you told me a thing where you remove the other
Speaker 1: person and you just and you just say how you
Speaker 1: would say it if you were just saying with me
Speaker 1: or with I, like you said, there's a cute picture
Speaker 1: of Donald and me, there's a cute picture of me.
Speaker 1: I see there you go? So I just removed Donald
Speaker 1: and I go, there's a cute picture of me. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't say there's a cute picture of I. Thank you, Chris.
Speaker 1: But do you always have to go with Donald first?
Speaker 1: Can you say there's a cute picture of me Donald? Now, okay,
Speaker 1: that's incorrect as well. There's a cute picture of Donald
Speaker 1: and me I put on Instagram and it's old and
Speaker 1: Donald is a little hefty, and um, wait, hold on,
Speaker 1: you are you're a sty in the picture? Some of
Speaker 1: the some of the comments has said things like how
Speaker 1: many months? Is Donald? That kind of thing? And I
Speaker 1: because I thought he looks cute. I thought he looked adorable,
Speaker 1: Like I know, I'm sure you guys have this as
Speaker 1: a married couple. Donald, I have to say, like, oh,
Speaker 1: I thought you look cute. I hate that picture of me.
Speaker 1: How dare you pose that you look cute in the picture?
Speaker 1: Do I think I look cute? Now he's lookut. Yes,
Speaker 1: of course, of course he looks cute. That's why you
Speaker 1: roasted it. Donald. Krista would post a picture of me
Speaker 1: shirtless and four hundred pounds overweight and vomit all over
Speaker 1: my chest if she thought she would cute at it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like he is a monster behind. It's like all
Speaker 1: of those It's like all of those ladies that have
Speaker 1: the picture of them and the baby and the baby
Speaker 1: is not even looking and it's kind of like, you know,
Speaker 1: got woozy face, but they look great and they go, oh,
Speaker 1: look at the cute little baby. And it's like, now
Speaker 1: he didn't post that for the baby. Yeah, it's like that.
Speaker 1: And Casey got mad at your ask or what no,
Speaker 1: so Casey slid into my d M s and was like,
Speaker 1: you couldn't have cropped him. And I just thought it
Speaker 1: was funny because it was like a good wife looking
Speaker 1: out for her husband's belly. It makes me love Casey
Speaker 1: even more. Man. By the way, that's that's another just
Speaker 1: idyllic couple. Donald Man, you found you found the right
Speaker 1: one there. That's the rock star. She does love me. Man.
Speaker 1: I'm very lucky, all right, you are. You're both perfect couples.
Speaker 1: You both are examples in my life. And I'm not
Speaker 1: just saying this because you're on the phone of of
Speaker 1: being the perfect ying yang for each other. You both couples.
Speaker 1: The men and women are very different from each other,
Speaker 1: very different, but compliment each other perfectly. I think I
Speaker 1: thought a poetic that Cristal walked away during that No
Speaker 1: Crystal left. I just wanted to show Zachie a picture
Speaker 1: of he took with Sarah Chalk and myself. That is
Speaker 1: so cute And how cute is that? That's from the Bahamas. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you took it with my camera. We were just
Speaker 1: talking about this whole camera situation that went on during
Speaker 1: the scrubs run. Um did you have were you a
Speaker 1: big camera fanatic before Brendan Fraser showed up. Christa, Yes, um,
Speaker 1: I was. I uh Brendan, I bonded over the over cameras,
Speaker 1: But yeah, I had. My mom's third husband was a photographer,
Speaker 1: so I was often taking, are you guys laughing because
Speaker 1: she's a third husband. I'm laughing because I'm uncomfortable. Much
Speaker 1: of Bill started, I was like, I've got a laugh too.
Speaker 1: So people get married a third time, Like, don't you
Speaker 1: just don't get married? You try it twice and if
Speaker 1: it if it's not for you, just stop getting married
Speaker 1: the fourth husband. Now that one took, though, that one took. Yeah, no, yeah,
Speaker 1: that one's going all right. So continue continued anyway. So yeah,
Speaker 1: and I've always um And then I stuck to film
Speaker 1: because I think it's the most beautiful. And anytime I
Speaker 1: was modeling or you know, doing any shoots, I would
Speaker 1: talk to the photographer and buddy up to them and
Speaker 1: have them teach me tricks and techniques with photography. Zach
Speaker 1: was a nerd. Brandon was Donald. I never did it.
Speaker 1: You never did it. No, I never did it. We
Speaker 1: had we had Brandon on and Donald said something like, no,
Speaker 1: we had when she had Chase Erano on and we
Speaker 1: were talking about Brendan's first episode with the camera and
Speaker 1: he donald was like, why do I have so many
Speaker 1: polaroid pictures of myself? And I explained to him that
Speaker 1: that Brendan got you and I into old school polaroid photography. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and also Brendon, you got me Like Brendan, I mean,
Speaker 1: I just got back in time with photography. My cameras
Speaker 1: just are bigger and clunkier than they were before because
Speaker 1: I used the old school ones. But Brendan and I
Speaker 1: used to go into his dark room. Hit a dark
Speaker 1: room in his house when he used to live in California,
Speaker 1: which I loved, and I used to go over there
Speaker 1: once a week and we used to sit in there
Speaker 1: for hours. And it made me realize that Bill would
Speaker 1: never let me have a dark room here because he
Speaker 1: would never see me. I mean, I would just go
Speaker 1: in there. It's also hard to stop hug on the
Speaker 1: red lights of the dark I have a question, is
Speaker 1: it because you would be experimenting with different exposures or
Speaker 1: or I mean, I can't imagine that you take that
Speaker 1: many pictures that you're gonna just develop everything, like you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, after you look at the contact sheet,
Speaker 1: is it like I know that some people go into
Speaker 1: the dark woman and they try to create a formula
Speaker 1: of dip and all of that stuff where they the
Speaker 1: pictures come out a little different and everything like that.
Speaker 1: Is that what it is? Yeah, there's great techniques to
Speaker 1: um printing film in a dark room that you're you
Speaker 1: are messing with the exposures and with the shadows and
Speaker 1: trying to bring maybe a picture with a little under
Speaker 1: exposed when you shot it, and then you try to
Speaker 1: fix it in the dark room. Things you can do
Speaker 1: digitally now easily. There was fun. There was a lot
Speaker 1: of fun doing. I got into photography in high school
Speaker 1: because we had a photography class in high school, and
Speaker 1: it was I learned about the dark room, and I
Speaker 1: just thought it was so much fun. Now, of course
Speaker 1: everyone just does it digitally, but it was a really
Speaker 1: fun thing to be experimenting with and and and doing.
Speaker 1: I loved it too. Did you three all call each
Speaker 1: other and say we should make sure we start by
Speaker 1: talking about something that Bill doesn't know anything about, so
Speaker 1: he doesn't talk all the time. Know nothing about this,
Speaker 1: I know nothing about this. I'm just trying to figure
Speaker 1: out how you know where it all stemmed from, because
Speaker 1: Zach believes it stemmed from Brendan. He believes that that
Speaker 1: was the beginning of more than me. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: Donald's not remembering what I said that Chris and I
Speaker 1: were both hobbyists, and then Brendan brought the world of
Speaker 1: old school polaroids into our lives. I wanted to tell
Speaker 1: you that that Krista and Bill Kristin knows they love
Speaker 1: cameras of all types. And I went over to their
Speaker 1: house for Christmas, and um, I was very excited about
Speaker 1: the present that I had gotten them. I had found
Speaker 1: them these really really cool Japanese slippers and um, they
Speaker 1: were they were cool. I thought they were cool. Um.
Speaker 1: And then and then Christa said, here's the present from
Speaker 1: me and Bill. Mind you, I hadn't given them the
Speaker 1: slippers yet, and and I opened it up and it
Speaker 1: is the most gorgeous antique medium format camera that is
Speaker 1: like priceless and vintage and special works and not only
Speaker 1: can you use it, but you'd also like put it
Speaker 1: on your mantelpiece. And uh, and I'm like, I'm thinking
Speaker 1: in my head, holy funk. I bought them slippers presents
Speaker 1: always thank you if it makes you, if it makes
Speaker 1: you feel any better. I didn't know what we got
Speaker 1: you until you opened. That's funny, that's you know what.
Speaker 1: Before we go any further stories about shore, we made
Speaker 1: about a bunch of dots and nurses and Janitor who
Speaker 1: said stories around here, around here. Now we're in, Now,
Speaker 1: we're in. Now listen. We've been doing this for a
Speaker 1: full season. Guys. We we did not know this would
Speaker 1: be popular, and it's so fun that it is. But
Speaker 1: we could Donald. I couldn't think of a better way
Speaker 1: to end the first season of it than to have
Speaker 1: you two on, of course, because you're both so funny,
Speaker 1: and also, of course Bill, this is your baby. And thirdly,
Speaker 1: we thought we might get you guys bickering, which is
Speaker 1: always good radio. Thank you and congratulations. I'm loving it.
Speaker 1: It makes me happy. Thank you. I listen as a
Speaker 1: fan and I think, uh, not only do I love
Speaker 1: you know, revisiting a show that I like you guys,
Speaker 1: I've almost forgotten all of it, but listening to you
Speaker 1: guys without your friendship in real time on here gives
Speaker 1: me great joy. It's super fun. None of this would
Speaker 1: be possible if it wasn't for you. So more than anything,
Speaker 1: thank you man, you know, thank you. We always, we
Speaker 1: always thank you for the show, but we we we
Speaker 1: we probably never thank you for the friendship that you
Speaker 1: instilled inspired whatever the correct word is. Um and uh
Speaker 1: and that's that's that's the gift that keeps on giving.
Speaker 1: My our our our love for each other was born
Speaker 1: when when you thought we did the best job in
Speaker 1: the audition room. Even though we know now that Donald
Speaker 1: up I could be sitting here doing a podcast with
Speaker 1: Doulez Hill, I have a question to you and Donald Bicker.
Speaker 1: We were just funny. We were just on that before
Speaker 1: you guys got on. Bill. You probably don't know this
Speaker 1: because you weren't there, you were in the writer's room.
Speaker 1: But this episode is one of the first times I
Speaker 1: remember getting into fight with Donald when we were doing
Speaker 1: the stunt where he lass owes me in the I
Speaker 1: c you and pulls me. Donald of course got very
Speaker 1: excited and uh and and pulled me like legitimately hard
Speaker 1: across the floor and it fucking hurt and uh and
Speaker 1: then he wasn't apologetic and we got in a fight.
Speaker 1: And the rest of the fight we got into an argument.
Speaker 1: I wout to whip your ask if you were to
Speaker 1: put your hands. I didn't mean to imply that we
Speaker 1: got in a fist fight. We got an argument, and
Speaker 1: then the rest of the episode we're like, the rest
Speaker 1: of that scene, we're like, weren't speaking to each other.
Speaker 1: So that scene is played out in silent treatment. Dude,
Speaker 1: what's the longest that we've gone without talking to each
Speaker 1: other because of a fight? What's the longest? Probably a week,
Speaker 1: A couple of no, a couple of months. Do Casey Casey.
Speaker 1: Whenever we get in a fight, Casey usually becomes the
Speaker 1: the the the arbitrator and and works it out. She
Speaker 1: becomes our couple's therapist. It's very interesting. I want, I
Speaker 1: want to be My problem is that Krista could go
Speaker 1: years without talking to me, and I'm always like I'll
Speaker 1: match her stubbornness. And I falled after about six minutes.
Speaker 1: It was like, please, please, please love me again. I
Speaker 1: hate being in an argument with either a friend or
Speaker 1: a partner. I just like that that awkward, like angrily
Speaker 1: making a sandwich in the kitchen, throwing down the peanut
Speaker 1: butter knife. I don't, by the way, you reference one
Speaker 1: of the moments I thought was really funny on the show,
Speaker 1: not to take it to the show, but that that
Speaker 1: universal concept of not wanting to get in another couple's
Speaker 1: fight and getting dragged back into it. And then when I,
Speaker 1: since I watched all these having forgotten him too, when
Speaker 1: I see you hand it to uh Alomas Roberts and
Speaker 1: she and she gets pulled back, but much more comfortably
Speaker 1: on her back. On her back, I think, like on
Speaker 1: a skateboard or something, because if you're she's floating like
Speaker 1: several inches above the grow. I think the groups Aloma
Speaker 1: her own Dolly. Aloma is not going to get dragged
Speaker 1: real by, for real by Donald and getting a fight
Speaker 1: with him. No, there's no silent treatment there. How how
Speaker 1: long would a real fight between you two last if
Speaker 1: it was physical? Donald, do you think Zach even holds
Speaker 1: his own for a couple of seconds? I think his
Speaker 1: cardio is way better than mine now, so I'd have
Speaker 1: to hand it. I'd have to end it quickly, because
Speaker 1: if I didn't, I would get tired, and then his
Speaker 1: little taps would trying into hard punches. Listen, Donald and I, Well, dude,
Speaker 1: we used to bull true. I've never heard the expression
Speaker 1: bull true. Um, we used to get in play fights
Speaker 1: and you know, just like you know, pretend boxing, and
Speaker 1: I would feel beaten up even by that within seconds,
Speaker 1: because it sounds like i'd like throw a fake punch,
Speaker 1: then he'd block it and then come with the other hand.
Speaker 1: I'd be like, oh, I'd be knocked out by that. Um,
Speaker 1: let's get into the episode, directed by Michael Spiller, who's
Speaker 1: always one of our favorites. Right, guys, Big round of
Speaker 1: applause for the season finale. Season finale. I didn't remember
Speaker 1: a bunch of this. Of course I remember was Christa's
Speaker 1: epic monologue, which will get to at the end. I
Speaker 1: didn't remember this mirror gag at all. I didn't remember Christa.
Speaker 1: You look stunning, and I believe you're wearing a leather blouse.
Speaker 1: What I'm wearing? What where was the mirror? I don't
Speaker 1: remember that. All I remember is that Scrubs was the
Speaker 1: one time I was ever able to coerce you and
Speaker 1: having short hair, because you know how I love you
Speaker 1: with short hair. Yeah, But watching this episode, I'm like,
Speaker 1: do I go with that? Yes? Yes, yeah, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: I really I mean, you look you look great and all,
Speaker 1: but I know Bill is hair not everybody can pull
Speaker 1: off this hairstyle. And I think you look really good.
Speaker 1: You look so shoppy and pc. Yeah, and a long
Speaker 1: short haircut. It's like long. I thought, yeah, it's not
Speaker 1: longer than the shoulders, but it's it's it's it still
Speaker 1: has a little bit of a flip, like Donald, don't
Speaker 1: boys like long hair. I mean Casey has long hair. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but Casey has long hair because she likes long hair.
Speaker 1: It's not because it's not what I like. It's what
Speaker 1: she likes. Not everybody. I don't think everybody can pull
Speaker 1: it off, Krista, but you you you you show in
Speaker 1: this episode that you can because I think you look great.
Speaker 1: You look amazing in this episode. And your leather I
Speaker 1: didn't know a leather blouse was a thing, but you
Speaker 1: look great. I remember that mirror thing. This is what
Speaker 1: was cool about having to show with fantasies is we
Speaker 1: are trying to reprise the mirror thing from the pilot,
Speaker 1: and then we knew we had to give everybody the
Speaker 1: backstory kind of from the whole season so we could
Speaker 1: blow it up at the end, and we just did
Speaker 1: it by having them all talked to in the mirror
Speaker 1: really fast, so you knew Donald and Carlo we're fighting.
Speaker 1: You knew uh that you hooked up with Krista, Johnny
Speaker 1: C's wife, and we knew you know that you and
Speaker 1: Sarah still had some ship going on. So we tried
Speaker 1: to just get it all out there quickly. So you're
Speaker 1: saying it's a writing device, you kind of wanted to
Speaker 1: brief the audience on here's where we're ending the season, right,
Speaker 1: Here's all the things that we're gonna blow up at
Speaker 1: the end, some of which we aren't going to talk
Speaker 1: about a ton in this episode, right, And so you
Speaker 1: have to build when you're writing. Um, I think I
Speaker 1: know the answer. But but just for people that are
Speaker 1: aspiring writers out there of TV shows, you kind of
Speaker 1: also have to remember like what the audience knows and
Speaker 1: what they don't know. And even if they're an avid viewer,
Speaker 1: they may have missed a week. So is there a
Speaker 1: little bit of an onus on you to just kind
Speaker 1: of get everyone in a headspace of of knowing what's
Speaker 1: about to happen? There used to be, Um, there used
Speaker 1: to be. It's changed with streaming, television, binging, and you know,
Speaker 1: now people do things that they put and I love
Speaker 1: it because I'm a fan. They'll put something in one
Speaker 1: episode and never mentioned it again, and they'll come up
Speaker 1: in episode five, and if you're a fan, you're like,
Speaker 1: who that's binge watching? And when when network TV used
Speaker 1: to exist, they used to tell you, uh, your most
Speaker 1: frequent viewer watches one out of every three episodes. I
Speaker 1: told you, I told you. Bill told us that. I
Speaker 1: told you. Bill told us that last episode which with
Speaker 1: UH with Shay and you and you guys were fucking
Speaker 1: clowning me because I you were saying that I didn't
Speaker 1: watch it. I would lie to people. But Bill told
Speaker 1: us that back in the day, your most freaking person
Speaker 1: that comes up to you and says, I fucking love
Speaker 1: your show, it maybe seen four episodes. Yeah, so it's
Speaker 1: like a huge fan. That network used to say a
Speaker 1: huge fan. If you did twenty two episodes, you say,
Speaker 1: a huge fan probably saw eight of them that season,
Speaker 1: and then and then more than well that's when remember
Speaker 1: that's when your audience would be ten to fifteen million
Speaker 1: people and you'd be like, oh, we have four million
Speaker 1: that watched them all, and then six million that watched
Speaker 1: uh ten episodes, and then a few million that watched
Speaker 1: like three or four, you know. And so it's funny
Speaker 1: when I think back to a kid two shows I love, like,
Speaker 1: let's just to pick one, Cheers. I saw a fraction
Speaker 1: of episodes of Cheers, you know, Like, so I guess
Speaker 1: as I think about it, I I am that I
Speaker 1: was that way too, And it was that sort of viewing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and and word TV fans ended up in this business,
Speaker 1: and that was us so and now it's that that
Speaker 1: that that ethos has gone. Now you you assume with
Speaker 1: these streaming shows that people that are watching them are
Speaker 1: binging them if they like them, and you don't have
Speaker 1: to make reference to anything you've done episodes before. So yeah,
Speaker 1: we felt the uh always felt the burden to catch
Speaker 1: people up. And Bill, another question is where was your
Speaker 1: head out when we got here? I don't remember, and
Speaker 1: I wonder if you do. How we how we were
Speaker 1: doing in the ratings? Were you we confident we were
Speaker 1: going to get another season? Um? Well, yeah we were?
Speaker 1: Were we? At this point? We were a very successful
Speaker 1: show and uh, I was even expecting us to be
Speaker 1: on After Friends, which we were the next year, you know,
Speaker 1: And so um, the we were just trying to blow
Speaker 1: everything up because we had kind of done. You know,
Speaker 1: we had outlined a year to get through their internship,
Speaker 1: and then we wanted to go, let's not repeat it
Speaker 1: next year. Let's blow it all up. Let's do them
Speaker 1: thinking that they're becoming doctors. But remind people what's still
Speaker 1: out there. Elliott still has a thing for j D. Jordan,
Speaker 1: whether she wants to admit it or not, is still
Speaker 1: in love with Dr Cox uh he Um is obsessed
Speaker 1: with Carla for his own narcissistic reasons. Carl and Turk
Speaker 1: are considering getting serious in the relationship. You know all
Speaker 1: that stuff. I have to make something, I have to
Speaker 1: admit something to you, very embarrassing after twenty years. I
Speaker 1: had forgotten that. And when when when when Christie says
Speaker 1: at the end, admit that you still have feelings for
Speaker 1: j D. I I personally got excited for j D.
Speaker 1: I was like, she likes me still, like I had
Speaker 1: forgotten because Sarah does such a good job Elliott. Sarah
Speaker 1: Elliott does a good job of totally seeming like she's
Speaker 1: over it, like and and obviously I know where it
Speaker 1: goes in the end of the show. But when when
Speaker 1: you said that and Sarah gave a look like you
Speaker 1: just outed me. I was like, I was like happy
Speaker 1: for me. J D. Well, you know it's so weird
Speaker 1: man TV and the fandom and you guys decide what
Speaker 1: we do in many ways with your performance, because, um,
Speaker 1: we did that Pizza Clock episode with you and Sarah
Speaker 1: because we said we don't want to do will there
Speaker 1: won't They? So Turk and Carla are gonna be the
Speaker 1: couple that's together for the whole duration of the show.
Speaker 1: Will There won't They? Will be dr Cox and Jordan's
Speaker 1: and uh, j D and Elliott will have them hook
Speaker 1: up now and do that, run the relationship fully through
Speaker 1: its course, and then we'll never be back there again.
Speaker 1: But the second we did it, people wanted it and
Speaker 1: wanted to track it, and it became inevitable. You guys
Speaker 1: had chemistry. I mean I want that. I mean, I
Speaker 1: guess I'm the typical viewer. I love a will There
Speaker 1: won't They? I'm a sucker for that. It makes great television,
Speaker 1: you guys. I didn't realize that Cox and Jordan were
Speaker 1: the will they or won't they until this episode. Really,
Speaker 1: when you see that Jordan's really does have feelings for
Speaker 1: that was such a vulnerable moment where she you know,
Speaker 1: she first she thanks him, like, you know, dude, first
Speaker 1: of all, thank you for not pressuring me into having to,
Speaker 1: you know, go into this thing tomorrow and speak up
Speaker 1: for you. I truly appreciate that. And then his response
Speaker 1: and her face and reaction to it all. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was like, well you could feel her pain, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, you could feel the pain like she
Speaker 1: was with you know, she Jordan's truly you know, as
Speaker 1: much as she French, she still loves this guy, and
Speaker 1: he's playing it. It's clear that he loves her later on,
Speaker 1: but he's playing it at this moment, like I know
Speaker 1: why you're here. He's oblivious, he's aloof he's he's a
Speaker 1: he's a moron also for it too, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. You gotta get to listen. Somebody shows up
Speaker 1: over and over and over and over again for a
Speaker 1: booty call. Dude, wake up and smell the flavor. Man,
Speaker 1: This is real, right the first time, for the first time,
Speaker 1: we see Jordan's being vulnerable there, right, Christal. I mean,
Speaker 1: she's like you're like sitting even your body Langue. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you've got a blanket over you, you know, whereas
Speaker 1: you've been all this, the sexually confident woman who's talking
Speaker 1: shit your curl. I thought it was a good acting
Speaker 1: moment for you as well. You were kind of curled
Speaker 1: up and and you had a blanket over you, and
Speaker 1: you were you were vulnerable because you were you were
Speaker 1: catching feelings, as they say. But when when he said
Speaker 1: let's shake do you know, shake it up? And she says,
Speaker 1: you want me to shake it up? That's when it
Speaker 1: was like, hell ship, what has he done? He has
Speaker 1: no idea, he has no idea what he just did. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I like to Donald. I liked the scene with Sarah
Speaker 1: and Krista that Donald just pointed out because it's it's
Speaker 1: cool and a writer that something happens serendipitously, that you
Speaker 1: didn't mean to set it up. But we had done
Speaker 1: all these booty calls, and then we had Jordan's say
Speaker 1: sex is for making babies and revenge and that's it.
Speaker 1: And then Sarah, Sarah says, I don't think you're getting
Speaker 1: a lot of revenge on Dr Cox by showing up
Speaker 1: and servicing him, you know, while he watched Sports Center
Speaker 1: what Donald said, you know what I mean? And to me,
Speaker 1: I had forgotten and your face did it too. I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh ship, she likes him. Oh stinger. We'll be right
Speaker 1: back after these fine words. Now, sorry to jump to
Speaker 1: the Todd for a second, just because he's we've been talking,
Speaker 1: Donald and I have really been going back, you guys
Speaker 1: and laughing and acknowledging that everything that Rob Mascio says
Speaker 1: is funny. And we're constantly being like, you know, we
Speaker 1: we teased him a lot while we were shooting the show,
Speaker 1: and uh and now when we go back and we
Speaker 1: watched the episodes, like every single thing he does makes
Speaker 1: us laugh, including in this episode. He has a lot
Speaker 1: of funny stuff when you when you when you when
Speaker 1: you're asking dr when when you and Carl are asking
Speaker 1: dr When for help, and he's in the background, like
Speaker 1: doing all this stupid stuff, sack the glass of his
Speaker 1: face and he's like, it didn't hurt. It didn't hurt. Also,
Speaker 1: I think he I think he speaks like um monosyllabically.
Speaker 1: What the Todd did bad? Todds still referring to himself
Speaker 1: in the third person, and Turk very upset with him.
Speaker 1: Todd did bad. As a matter of fact, the Todd
Speaker 1: did very very very very bad. Yes, you know what
Speaker 1: I noticed in this show there are a thousand one
Speaker 1: line funny, funny jokes through the whole Everyone has these
Speaker 1: hysterical one miners that I was trying to write them
Speaker 1: down and like there were too many, Like everyone has
Speaker 1: a funny thing to say. Aloma has the best one
Speaker 1: to me. You didn't hear that. You didn't hear you did?
Speaker 1: He No? But g just dude, And then she sings
Speaker 1: and then she sings the song from the opening from
Speaker 1: White Man Can't Jump just to Jesus Sanity. I also
Speaker 1: love that because I don't think we had any song
Speaker 1: chosen and just it's one of the most fun things
Speaker 1: for me, you know, on the show, or the amount
Speaker 1: of stuff that we're left into the hands of the
Speaker 1: actors and actresses. So I know she just picked that
Speaker 1: and started singing it. Which is I believe Aloma was
Speaker 1: a religious woman, right, Yeah, we did, we did. We
Speaker 1: did bet that at some point, but I can't I
Speaker 1: know we wanted her to be from the start, you know,
Speaker 1: I know the character was, but I think that as
Speaker 1: I recall Aloma right is was so maybe she knew
Speaker 1: that from church or something. I don't know. It's not
Speaker 1: going to have her on the show. By the way,
Speaker 1: she want to have her on her show. We want
Speaker 1: again again, we want to have on her show. We've
Speaker 1: we've discussed already bringing her in the second season. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's along the way. Man, she's fun to see. I
Speaker 1: forgot what a big present she was. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: Rob on and and uh, by the way, it's funny. Bill.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember. You sent out a
Speaker 1: mass email, uh to to the whole cast about doing
Speaker 1: some event, and everyone was like, I'm down, I'm down down,
Speaker 1: And then Ken Jenkins was like, oh, good to hear
Speaker 1: from you. I'm I'm moving way too busy, and I
Speaker 1: was just like and I was like, oh man, we
Speaker 1: were gonna ask him to come on the podcast. But
Speaker 1: I'm a little nervous now that Ken is gonna blow
Speaker 1: us off and my heart won't be able to handle it.
Speaker 1: The thing that's gonna make me happiest is when you
Speaker 1: ask him to do it next year and he's still
Speaker 1: miraculously moving the same. Thank you. I'm moving, but that's
Speaker 1: a bad time. I'm moving and you're still moving. It's
Speaker 1: a long move. It's a long move. Yeah, we want
Speaker 1: to have Rob on who else you we have on
Speaker 1: a loma UM I want to have UM. We were
Speaker 1: talking about having all the stand ins on and like
Speaker 1: a group one. Deonta like Deonte. Deonta said to me
Speaker 1: the other day, he was like, listen, when you guys
Speaker 1: get to the one with the chimps and they're all
Speaker 1: dressed up as doctors, you got it. I'll call in
Speaker 1: or whatever it is because I've got a great story
Speaker 1: for that moment. And he told me the story and
Speaker 1: it is amazing, So we don't don't don't take it
Speaker 1: from him. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna take it
Speaker 1: from him. I'm gonna wait because you got to do that.
Speaker 1: And then you also, I believe, if I'm not mistaken,
Speaker 1: that Deante I see him a lot when people to
Speaker 1: the clip of Neil Flynn saying his actual name, and
Speaker 1: then Deonte, I think walks by and goes hey, Tony
Speaker 1: right at the at the end of it. So he's
Speaker 1: the reason that people don't believe that the janitor is
Speaker 1: Glenn Matthews. Really, yes, so J Matthews is his real name.
Speaker 1: Glenn Matthews is his real name. You heard it right
Speaker 1: from Bill's mouth, Guys, Glenn Matthews is his real name.
Speaker 1: He just he just lied to to Deante's character and
Speaker 1: said he was Tony. Yes, And we decided his name
Speaker 1: was Glenn Matthews because he was the janitor on Quan
Speaker 1: High and introduced himself as Glenn. Ah. We had, we
Speaker 1: had nielon I don't know if you did. Was hilarious
Speaker 1: and we really kind of stumbled into a really good
Speaker 1: TV show Bill that we'd love you to do. It's
Speaker 1: a great idea. And by the way, I will never
Speaker 1: waiver Bill, Bill, Bill, you don't want you don't want
Speaker 1: one of your fellow fancy showrunners to steal Space Janitor.
Speaker 1: We're giving it to you. Bill, don't stay. I never
Speaker 1: gave you anything as a present. You're getting, you're getting.
Speaker 1: You're getting the rough treatment for Space Janitor. It's a
Speaker 1: multi camera in front of a couch Bill in space.
Speaker 1: How can you base janitor? Space Janitor? And then another
Speaker 1: one I was gonna hit up about, uh, Sam Lloyd
Speaker 1: r I p s the Janitor and Sam is a
Speaker 1: legal Yeah. I also like we stumbled into a thing
Speaker 1: in that Neil episode. By the way, Neil's talking about
Speaker 1: how he's finally developing something on his own because he's
Speaker 1: always been in other people's stuff and he's now collaborating
Speaker 1: with someone developing something, and I'm just sitting riffing jokes
Speaker 1: with him for an hour and a half. With Donald,
Speaker 1: I was like, I feel like we could come up
Speaker 1: with ten shows because he's so quick with it. The
Speaker 1: other one we stumbled into was a classic multi camp sitcom,
Speaker 1: but it's a castle and it takes place with with
Speaker 1: roy with old school like medieval royals. So you just
Speaker 1: do like classic multiicam sitcom jokes, but they're like in
Speaker 1: it's like medieval times. The game it's the Game of
Speaker 1: Thrones sets. Yes, it's a Game of Thrones. It's Game
Speaker 1: of Thrones, but it's a sitcom. I'm in, Bill, I'm in.
Speaker 1: I'll do it. I'll do eight to ten. I still
Speaker 1: want to see you guys in some kind of spies
Speaker 1: like us, you know, and some kind of version of that. Listen,
Speaker 1: we were talking when we had Scott Folly on how
Speaker 1: how we really need you to pull the j j
Speaker 1: Abrams and start directing giant tent pole movies because what's
Speaker 1: his name, Greg Grunberg, that in all these Star Wars movies, Man,
Speaker 1: we need you to direct your big tempole movies so
Speaker 1: Donald and I can be in it. And christ By
Speaker 1: the way, my wife just said, yeah, Bill is this
Speaker 1: is this is the reality of my life. My wife
Speaker 1: should be somebody that would be in all of my shows,
Speaker 1: and yet she's only in the ones that she picks
Speaker 1: as that she deems worthy of her time and effort,
Speaker 1: so much so that I will occasionally I still remain nameless.
Speaker 1: Go there's a really thing would be really helpful. You
Speaker 1: know if you did this part in this little thing
Speaker 1: and she's going, has the script changed and all since
Speaker 1: the last time I read it, I'm like, you're still no,
Speaker 1: but you're still my wife. I feel like she's like pass.
Speaker 1: Billy would always do that, Like the first draft of
Speaker 1: of Christa's lines in the show would be they'd be
Speaker 1: good to be funny, and then like on the day
Speaker 1: she'd show up like with Bill, like they had both
Speaker 1: just been working together, and Christie would have like a
Speaker 1: whole new pass. It was like a Christo pass. She
Speaker 1: had the ability that we didn't to go, Bill, see up.
Speaker 1: My wife was on the show Cougar Town, and I'm
Speaker 1: always telling the story. We'll get back to this show
Speaker 1: one of my favorite things. I always stayed on that
Speaker 1: show for three of its um six years, and I
Speaker 1: went and did other stuff. And I remember telling Krista,
Speaker 1: I'm like, um, look, I you know, there's other shows
Speaker 1: I want to do. They'll be different showrunners and all
Speaker 1: that other stuff, and uh, but I love you and
Speaker 1: and she's like, oh, she took it so well that
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, wow, that went better than I thought.
Speaker 1: And then the next year, like with their first episode,
Speaker 1: I was working on a different show. When I came home,
Speaker 1: there was a script on my pillow with her lines highlighted,
Speaker 1: and just like she had, she had just written things
Speaker 1: like change, beat, punch up, Change had told me Bill.
Speaker 1: Bill said to me, you know, I'm only going to
Speaker 1: run it, you know, these three years and then it's
Speaker 1: gonna go. I just want you to know that. Going in.
Speaker 1: I'm like, no problem, got it, no problem. And then
Speaker 1: it was really the week you left, it was immediately
Speaker 1: like You're like, this works for me fine, because you'll
Speaker 1: still do whatever I want you to do. Um, which
Speaker 1: is how our life works. Um. I love it. I
Speaker 1: would watch this ship out of this sitcom, The Real
Speaker 1: Life Adventures of Bill and Kristal I really liked. I
Speaker 1: don't know why. It made me so happy. And take
Speaker 1: it back to the episode of you, Donald, You, Zack,
Speaker 1: and uh Sarah all coming in on that first day
Speaker 1: being because it made me it felt real because I
Speaker 1: know it was the last one we shot, and I
Speaker 1: got nostalgic because you were like, can you believe it's
Speaker 1: our last day? I mean, and it felt very last
Speaker 1: day of school. And I looked at that. I watched
Speaker 1: these shows with an odd combination of pride, nostalgia, and
Speaker 1: then you know, the old being a writer that goes
Speaker 1: oh man. I wish we had done that differently. I
Speaker 1: wish that was fixed that or whatever. But that moment
Speaker 1: specifically made me remember what a gift it was to
Speaker 1: have you guys all there and be so tight and
Speaker 1: lovely and fun to hang out with in real life.
Speaker 1: Just made me happy. I remember feeling I remember feeling
Speaker 1: excited because I think we all knew how well the
Speaker 1: show was doing at the time, and we made it
Speaker 1: to the last episode. It was the twenty third episode
Speaker 1: of the season. Did we do Yeah, we did twenty four.
Speaker 1: What we did twenty three episodes that year, not including
Speaker 1: the pilot and I remember being like, holy cow, we're
Speaker 1: a hit. A lot of things in my life are
Speaker 1: changing now, you know what I mean. I can't believe it.
Speaker 1: As an actor, I did it. I fucking did it.
Speaker 1: All my friends from home, you know, we're watching my
Speaker 1: television show like it was the Cosby Show, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like it was a different world or
Speaker 1: whatever it was, you know what I mean. We came
Speaker 1: on after Frasier, you know what I mean. Everything was
Speaker 1: really awesome at that moment. And so when we when
Speaker 1: I watched the scene, I remember feeling great about it.
Speaker 1: But when I watch the scene, I had the biggest
Speaker 1: smile on my face. And it's the opening of the
Speaker 1: show too, and you know what I mean. But I
Speaker 1: had such a huge smile on my face because, you know,
Speaker 1: I remember the feeling of it's a success, a part
Speaker 1: of something successful. I'm a part of something that people
Speaker 1: really like. And I really enjoyed the people that I
Speaker 1: worked with, and uh yeah, so you know, yeah, we
Speaker 1: were I agreed. Now, we were being genuine. That moment
Speaker 1: is the three of us as close friends, hugging and
Speaker 1: being like, holy sh it, this happened. We just did
Speaker 1: twenty four episodes, of a show that's popular, and you know,
Speaker 1: there was there. There didn't need to be much acting.
Speaker 1: There that was that was that was very meta, very genuine.
Speaker 1: Well that's what I got out of this man, the
Speaker 1: gift of it. There's two things I wrote down. Was
Speaker 1: one like, how great Christ it was to have see
Speaker 1: you in it, because not only are you my wife,
Speaker 1: but you're so good, you know, and so funny and
Speaker 1: vulnerable and such a badass and this I loved that.
Speaker 1: And then the one thing I wanted to say too
Speaker 1: is my only other thing I had to reference with
Speaker 1: you guys. You know, so there's weird parts of the narrative,
Speaker 1: like how you guys keep trying to disprove that Neil
Speaker 1: was a fignment of the imagination and uh, you'll never
Speaker 1: ever been me. He was figurative. He didn't talk to anybody.
Speaker 1: I don't care what you think you saw. Um. But
Speaker 1: like one of the other narratives, which was so interesting,
Speaker 1: uh was you know how Judy and I, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: she would always come in at the beginning of seasons
Speaker 1: and go, I can be you know, funnier and goofier,
Speaker 1: and uh, I would always be like, you're the you know,
Speaker 1: emotional backbone of the whole show, and this was one
Speaker 1: of those episodes that we earned. It was it's never
Speaker 1: one or the other, like Dot You already talked about
Speaker 1: it when Donald is pulling Zack over to him when
Speaker 1: they were fighting in real life. You know, one of
Speaker 1: my favorite things is Judy's in the background going you
Speaker 1: got them baby, you know what I mean, And immediately
Speaker 1: it just made me a laugh. But then what we
Speaker 1: wanted to do in the show was a moment. Do
Speaker 1: you remember when you threw you two and Sarah even
Speaker 1: though he had been your patient for the entire episode,
Speaker 1: and one of you knew what Mr Bober looked like.
Speaker 1: And then of course you hear Carla's voice and she says,
Speaker 1: he's over here, and she knows that none of you
Speaker 1: know him, and she's chastising you without being judgmental. And
Speaker 1: she was the only character on our show that could
Speaker 1: do that. You know, Dr Cox to do that moment,
Speaker 1: would yell at you and rub your faces in it.
Speaker 1: Kelso could never do it, and you three it was
Speaker 1: so weird because you three were all kids to her
Speaker 1: still grown up, you know what I mean. I think
Speaker 1: it's a good example too, I mean Obviously we're doing
Speaker 1: it about the medical profession, but I think everyone can
Speaker 1: relate to just getting used to something and and getting
Speaker 1: sort of cold to it. And again it gets met
Speaker 1: up for the show too, because Donald and I can
Speaker 1: attest that then we got used to it. We were
Speaker 1: on a popular show and we had this awesome job,
Speaker 1: and you know, it wasn't until it's over, and this
Speaker 1: many years back we look back and go, oh my god,
Speaker 1: not only do we have a great job that we
Speaker 1: all love, but we were all so close, we all
Speaker 1: got along so well. And because you know what, things
Speaker 1: become your new normal. Yes, so it becomes your new
Speaker 1: normal that you don't treat patients the same way. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I I always call it in writing because I'm never
Speaker 1: present enough and I'm trying to be more now is
Speaker 1: we used to call it a don't know how good
Speaker 1: you got it disease? You know what I mean? Because
Speaker 1: then then we're all off doing other jobs and other
Speaker 1: shows and remembering how great those experiences were and not
Speaker 1: saying that we didn't all enjoy them. But in the moment,
Speaker 1: I was never walking around going, hey, I don't know
Speaker 1: if I'm ever gonna work on a show that I'm
Speaker 1: proud of with these people I love and would want
Speaker 1: to spend time with forever and stuff again, So I
Speaker 1: should suck in every moment. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Do you want? You've worked on nine zillion shows since Scrubs?
Speaker 1: Is there has there been another? Um will exclude Cougar
Speaker 1: Town because your wife was on it. Has there been
Speaker 1: another that you um that you feel that you had
Speaker 1: anywhere near us close to as much fun on? Uh?
Speaker 1: The only thing that is close to tell you the
Speaker 1: truth was Spin City because this way you guys are
Speaker 1: talking was my first experience, and I had this very
Speaker 1: weird thing that we can all hope for, which is
Speaker 1: somebody that is a idol of yours growing up turns
Speaker 1: out to be exactly as cool as you would want
Speaker 1: them to be in real life, you know. And that's
Speaker 1: who Mike Fox was, and so to grow up watching
Speaker 1: his shows in his movies, and then he's respectful to
Speaker 1: me and kind and great and so that was fun.
Speaker 1: But I didn't leave there with lifelong friends the way
Speaker 1: I am with you Donald, you know, Judy and Sarah
Speaker 1: Neal and by the way, and John and Ken told
Speaker 1: me not to say this when he was doing my podcast.
Speaker 1: But Ken Jenkins did. By the way, did you did
Speaker 1: you go out in the city with Michael J. Fox?
Speaker 1: Uh No, he was when that show started. He was
Speaker 1: already sick. And one of the you know, one of
Speaker 1: the first things that you know, when I started that show,
Speaker 1: we're taking a side and Mike and Gary said, look,
Speaker 1: Mike's going to do a hundred episodes in four years
Speaker 1: because he's sick, and we have to do some production
Speaker 1: things around it and do that early. Yeah, and uh
Speaker 1: but still got to, you know, with the concerts and
Speaker 1: dinners and blah blah, and had some fun with him
Speaker 1: and stuff. I was just thinking how cool I would
Speaker 1: feel walking into a bar with Michael J. Fox. I
Speaker 1: would just I'd be strutting like Donald and I in
Speaker 1: that in that in that fantasy where we're starting on
Speaker 1: the hall, I'd have a pimp code on. For some reason,
Speaker 1: I love that you guys did that again. But you
Speaker 1: changed his outfits because working out, because I've gotten it
Speaker 1: was in really good shape. So I'm like, I'm the
Speaker 1: shirtless one this time. Well, I take, by the way,
Speaker 1: that's what friendship brings to a show. And and Christie,
Speaker 1: this is you too. The amount of stuff that you
Speaker 1: guys were generous enough and christ and from that you
Speaker 1: would actually say, are doing real life um names you
Speaker 1: would call each other, dynamics, et cetera. That made their
Speaker 1: way into the show, and the lexicon could only happen
Speaker 1: because of how close everybody was, of course, and by
Speaker 1: the way, you could still be writing it, because if
Speaker 1: if this show is in the modern era, Judy would
Speaker 1: be the one who slid into my d M s
Speaker 1: and be like, why did you post that picture at
Speaker 1: Turk looking fat? Hey, I don't want to I don't
Speaker 1: want to speak out of turn here, So if I'm wrong,
Speaker 1: we could cut this out and everything. But Bill, didn't
Speaker 1: you write on Friends the first season? I did? Right
Speaker 1: on Friends the first season. Somebody got fired and so
Speaker 1: and I came in. It was me at the end,
Speaker 1: but at the beginning, at the beginning, I came in
Speaker 1: and got to write on that show. And it was
Speaker 1: such a joke heavy show and some amazing talented joke writers,
Speaker 1: the main one being David Crane who created that show
Speaker 1: went on to create episodes, and uh, he's just such
Speaker 1: a good just a good writer. And uh, I got
Speaker 1: to know Matthew Perry, a little bit, mostly because someone
Speaker 1: made the joke that at different points in time I
Speaker 1: looked like Matthews fat or older brother, skinny or younger brother,
Speaker 1: fat or younger brother, and then skinny your older brother,
Speaker 1: all depending on the two of us. Krista, by the way,
Speaker 1: here's the worst story about Matthew Perry was relevant. Tell
Speaker 1: them how I tricked you and how it became a
Speaker 1: huge issue in our life when Matthew Perry directed scrubs.
Speaker 1: No so inappropriated that sounds the fans want to hear
Speaker 1: that is not going to be told. Well, imagination, My
Speaker 1: imagin better that it won't be. My imagination is very
Speaker 1: probably more interested than it was. I'll tell a tele
Speaker 1: version of it. So I was friends with Matthew Perry.
Speaker 1: We were on the same lot, but I was friends
Speaker 1: with him before we got friends and before I started
Speaker 1: doing Drew carry and we always used to play um.
Speaker 1: We used to hang out all the time, and we
Speaker 1: used to play paddle tests together. I loved Maddie and
Speaker 1: we were always friends. Um actually dated a friend of his.
Speaker 1: I did. Matthew and I were always good friends, and
Speaker 1: we play softball together, et cetera. So Bill the whole
Speaker 1: time since we started dating from a weekend said, um,
Speaker 1: are you did you ever fool around with Matthew Perry?
Speaker 1: And I said, no, we were just friends. And he goes,
Speaker 1: I can't imagine that, um, that you were just friends,
Speaker 1: because you didn't being friends with him for six years
Speaker 1: and different times I've been saying on not once fooling around.
Speaker 1: So so I said, no, we were just friends. No, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: and then um, and then Bill would see us together
Speaker 1: and you know, we were really good friends, and I
Speaker 1: would say you were really good friends. He goes, oh, no,
Speaker 1: I still don't believe you at all. And the week
Speaker 1: that Matthew Perry was directing scrubs the first morning, you know,
Speaker 1: w yeah. And I normally don't allow Bill to drive
Speaker 1: to work to me because he wants to with me
Speaker 1: because he talks all the time and I just like
Speaker 1: listening to Howard Stern, so he can't. He keeps turning
Speaker 1: the volume down to chat about nonsense, so I don't
Speaker 1: let him drive to work with me. But I was
Speaker 1: first up, which you know, it was early in the morning,
Speaker 1: and Bill said, do you think it's going to feel
Speaker 1: awkward for matt Perry to direct you? Since you guys
Speaker 1: fooled around, and I said, no, it's gonna be fine, Bill,
Speaker 1: and I pulled the car over and went, yes, you
Speaker 1: know what, you know what you know I did. I
Speaker 1: let it sit for like a year before that, having
Speaker 1: not brought it up, and then I went, super cash,
Speaker 1: that might just be fun today and be weird with
Speaker 1: him directing. You said, you guys pooled around. She's like, no,
Speaker 1: it's not a big deal. Oh my god, he built
Speaker 1: you did the long play with that long play, and
Speaker 1: I really stuck to my guns and it was such
Speaker 1: a little thing, and but he got me. It was
Speaker 1: just it was too early in the morning. Seven years
Speaker 1: of Bill laughed the entire way for the rest of
Speaker 1: the drive. It made me so giddy. I was. I
Speaker 1: was just going through all the lies in my head.
Speaker 1: It made me so happy. All Right, we have a
Speaker 1: fan waiting and we're gonna go to break first. And
Speaker 1: then also when we're done with the fan, I want
Speaker 1: you to tell the story about Bill when you came
Speaker 1: across George Clooney leaning against Christmas trailer like that. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back, and we're back, and we're back, and
Speaker 1: Joel is going to bring in Joel who are our guests?
Speaker 1: Guests singular, our guest plural today Emily Emily use ladies
Speaker 1: and gentlemen. Give it up for Emmily. That's my best Oprah.
Speaker 1: Are you wearing scrubs? Eilymily appears to have a stethoscope, Emily,
Speaker 1: can you hear us? Can you hear us? But Dan
Speaker 1: has messed up again and we can't hear Emily. Emily,
Speaker 1: can you hear us? If you need anyone for your
Speaker 1: mediocre mixing services, I recommend stop it. I'm stopping. I
Speaker 1: stopped Daniel. I love Daniel. Dan, You're the best. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna even sing the song for you. You're the best.
Speaker 1: No to give a shout out if you. If you're
Speaker 1: starting a podcast and would like to only be able
Speaker 1: to hear some of your guests, I can't recommend. She's
Speaker 1: connecting's connecting on Daniel's laughing. Joel is just shaking her
Speaker 1: head judgmentally at Daniel. That makes me happy. In the meantime, Phil,
Speaker 1: have you ever seen the air freshener that somebody made
Speaker 1: of me? Oh my goodness, what does it smell like?
Speaker 1: It smells like apple Teeny's. Yes, I would like to
Speaker 1: talk about the fear Factor conversation because we mentioned fear
Speaker 1: factor on this show. And at some point in record
Speaker 1: and and filming Scrubs, we developed Scrubs Factor and we
Speaker 1: had a bunch of you know, and and anyone could
Speaker 1: be a part of Scrubs Factor as long as you
Speaker 1: were on in the Scrubs cast or crew. And I
Speaker 1: remember someone eating hot sauce off of another person's foot
Speaker 1: after Franklin foot after a full day of work. Yep.
Speaker 1: And um, I remember another one was eating pigs feeds,
Speaker 1: the whole jar of pickled pigs feet. And come by
Speaker 1: the way, Randall would have rounded up anywhere from two
Speaker 1: to five bucks, you know, so it would be quick cash. Yeah, listen,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you something right now. As an as
Speaker 1: an African American man, that ship wasn't hard. Scott Scott
Speaker 1: Harris was the one that did that. Who was another
Speaker 1: African American may Scott Scott went for the pigs feed
Speaker 1: and and won the cash. Yeah he went, he got
Speaker 1: the cash, and everybody's like, eat the pigs feet. And
Speaker 1: let me tell you something right now, that ain't ship
Speaker 1: the easiest in the world. So you in your childhood,
Speaker 1: when you were growing up, you would you would eat
Speaker 1: pickled pigs feed no. So all right, so listen, this
Speaker 1: is where soul food came from. All right, little education.
Speaker 1: When slavery was happened, Uh, the slaves weren't given the
Speaker 1: choice meat, so it wasn't you wouldn't get the loin
Speaker 1: or the or anything like that. You'd get the intestines
Speaker 1: and that's where uh, that's where chitlands comes from. And
Speaker 1: you didn't get the you wouldn't get the meaty parts,
Speaker 1: so you would get the hoofs and the feet and
Speaker 1: everything like that. So that became so food later on.
Speaker 1: So what you're saying is that Scott Harris hustled us.
Speaker 1: He acted like it was a big deal. It was
Speaker 1: gross and then down right. And then afterwards he came
Speaker 1: up to me, he was like, man, that wasn't ship.
Speaker 1: That was on the other hand, on the other hand,
Speaker 1: by the way, there's nobody that can get me near
Speaker 1: Franklin Godbetter's toe. There's hot sauce on it. They had
Speaker 1: to suck the hot sauce off the big toe after
Speaker 1: a day, after a day of work. Another one was
Speaker 1: wasn't there something about spending an hour inside a closed mortgue? Drawer.
Speaker 1: It was a night you had to go. You had
Speaker 1: to sleep at night in a closed more drawer, and
Speaker 1: no one ever took that up. That was there was.
Speaker 1: That's a pretty advanced one. What about the young intern.
Speaker 1: He became a barazzi now and I believe he paparazzo.
Speaker 1: Donald SZ, thank you. He became a paparazzo, and I
Speaker 1: believe now it's a downer. He has a brain tumored.
Speaker 1: But he was one of our interns and painting his
Speaker 1: face with like marker or something like that and had
Speaker 1: to keep it on for I can't I can't remember that.
Speaker 1: I can't remember that person, and now I feel sad. Dude,
Speaker 1: are you sure this was scrubs? It might have been homies, Pimoni.
Speaker 1: It was definitely scrubbs. I forget the young man's name,
Speaker 1: but I remember it was like face He had to
Speaker 1: do face painting for the day and something and keep
Speaker 1: it on. It wasn't even faces painting. It was like sharpie.
Speaker 1: He had to he had to put sharpie on his face,
Speaker 1: and he did it and he had it on for
Speaker 1: like a week or something like that. It was something ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Let's get back to the episode for and then last one,
Speaker 1: and then last one Mike Schwartz trying to eat twelve
Speaker 1: Chrispy Cream donuts and failing, I feel like get hug
Speaker 1: from Dr Cox that three minutes into the episode. Um,
Speaker 1: granted it was a sarcastic hug. Sarcastic one. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: wanted to point out that even scrubs Wicky mentions that
Speaker 1: j D does get a Doctor Cox hug and h
Speaker 1: in the season finale, we felt it never counted and
Speaker 1: we went back to it because it was sarcastic almost immediately. Um. Also,
Speaker 1: I laughed out loud when I go, um, careful tiger.
Speaker 1: I wish people would call me tiger. Also, were those
Speaker 1: Johnny Sees shades were always talking about John. I want
Speaker 1: to I want to tiptoe around these oakleys because Johnny
Speaker 1: C listens to this podcast while he works out, and
Speaker 1: I don't want him throwing the waist down on the
Speaker 1: ground just to just to hold on, just to just
Speaker 1: to start it off. John, you are ripped in this episode. Yes.
Speaker 1: Let's first of all, let me just say, I don't
Speaker 1: know how old were you in your forties when we
Speaker 1: started to get thirties, when we started whatever it is
Speaker 1: it's working dog and I wish at right now, at
Speaker 1: forty six, I looked like you did in this episode
Speaker 1: of Scrubs. Holy cow, dude, you are ripped. That being said,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say anything, but I can't imagine a
Speaker 1: scenario that a I said, let's not shoot this scene
Speaker 1: until we get those glasses that I saw a dude
Speaker 1: wearing on the beach in Santa mag or be that
Speaker 1: our wardrobe and props people laid out those is one
Speaker 1: of the choices for his sunglasses. But those are definitely
Speaker 1: John as we discussed them before. I think they were
Speaker 1: his go to Oakley's dock in the day. But why orange, dude,
Speaker 1: why are take along on a guy on a jet ski?
Speaker 1: That's all I know. Well, they look like my mountain
Speaker 1: biking glasses. Yes, they're not for for regular wearing around,
Speaker 1: like Asian sunglasses that you wear when you're driving to
Speaker 1: make it so that you could see the road better.
Speaker 1: Boodblockers are boot blockers. I laughed out loud twelve thirty three.
Speaker 1: When I invited him to dinner, he goes yeah, and
Speaker 1: then he goes he goes together. I thought this is
Speaker 1: gonna be like a gift certifically rule Oh, I said,
Speaker 1: did I buy? I go? I go, can I buy
Speaker 1: you dinner? And he goes sure, I go really, Oh
Speaker 1: you mean together? Yeah? Absolutely, And that's great because I
Speaker 1: get off from like five minutes. I can't. He's like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker 1: I thought this was a gift certificate type situation. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: that's pretty funny. And he thought that I was gonna
Speaker 1: be like for you to have a dinner or or
Speaker 1: you can just you can just tell me where you
Speaker 1: want to eat and I'll pick it up and have
Speaker 1: it dropped off. Now let's talk about Colin hay for
Speaker 1: a second, because Colin Hayes first time being played on
Speaker 1: the episode on the show was here, my mo my,
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful world, beautiful song, beautiful world. And then
Speaker 1: he's actually in the season two premiere, Phil did how
Speaker 1: did Colin hay come about? Was it through Christian? Huge?
Speaker 1: Huge huge. I get to speak for a second before
Speaker 1: Kristin and then she has to talk, which is not
Speaker 1: enough shout outs for uh, my wife, Zach, you were
Speaker 1: involved and Neil was involved, but my wife on the
Speaker 1: show for what it's you know, I know, but I
Speaker 1: mean I have it. My wife is always been such
Speaker 1: a key person in me and picking music for my
Speaker 1: shows and having a taste in it that kind of
Speaker 1: defines tonally what the show is. And she had taken
Speaker 1: me to see Colin Hey a bunch of Largo even
Speaker 1: before our show came out. Go ahead, CHRISTI, I'm sorry interrupted. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So we had we had seen him at Largo, and
Speaker 1: I loved him and I knew that he was His
Speaker 1: music was absolutely the right tone for Scrubs, and so
Speaker 1: we used a few of Colin's songs on the show.
Speaker 1: Him And did you know he could act? Because I
Speaker 1: think he had. He had been on the Larry Sanders Show, right, Bill,
Speaker 1: I mean, how did you did you have the idea
Speaker 1: to put him in the episode? If you it's again
Speaker 1: it's Krista. But if you um have a chance to
Speaker 1: see Colin at Largo, it was, you know, half music
Speaker 1: and half him going going, I sold out Wembley Stadium
Speaker 1: with a bunch of dudes, and now I'm playing here
Speaker 1: for forty five of you, you know, and then just
Speaker 1: making jokes in his own expense. And I remember he
Speaker 1: used to say all my old mates said I should
Speaker 1: move to Australia open a bar called the down Under
Speaker 1: in Sydney. Come out every Saturday at midnight and play
Speaker 1: that song and I'd be a billionaire, which is probably true,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And then he just tell
Speaker 1: jokes and stories. It's so funny. Do you want to
Speaker 1: hear what else is funny about Colin hey So? My
Speaker 1: uncle for two years used to produce Saturday Night Live
Speaker 1: and I used to go in high school to watch
Speaker 1: the musical acts at like six o'clock on a Saturday,
Speaker 1: and then Colin hey Men at work played um Saturday
Speaker 1: Night Live and then we we hung out with him afterwards.
Speaker 1: He was a perfect gentleman, wasn't he like that? But
Speaker 1: we all hung out with him afterwards. And then when
Speaker 1: he did the show, he said to me, your uncle
Speaker 1: gave me a chance and was so kind to me
Speaker 1: on Saturday Night Live, and it kind of came full
Speaker 1: circle and he was excited to see me again, and
Speaker 1: that's cool. That's cool. I was going to see him.
Speaker 1: I went with you, dude. Those you don't know. Largo
Speaker 1: is a small, very small music venue. It since changed.
Speaker 1: They probably made it bigger, but back in the day
Speaker 1: when we were going, I don't know. It would hold
Speaker 1: maybe a hundred people, yeah, I think less than that.
Speaker 1: If that, maybe less than that, or maybe sixty. And
Speaker 1: it was a bar and they served food and lots
Speaker 1: of comedians would would would be there and musicians would
Speaker 1: be there, and it was a really cool community. And
Speaker 1: I hadn't heard Colins since he was in Minute Work
Speaker 1: when I was a kid. And then he on up
Speaker 1: and we just play his songs acoustically, just him and
Speaker 1: a guitar, and it was so beautiful because his voice
Speaker 1: is so incredible, and he would do some covers of
Speaker 1: Minute Work songs, and then he would do a lot
Speaker 1: of his his own songs, his new songs, like like
Speaker 1: Beautiful World that's in this episode, and um, I just
Speaker 1: don't think I'll ever get over you, which I ended
Speaker 1: up putting in Garden State. But um, I remember that
Speaker 1: he was very funny in the episode, and I just, uh,
Speaker 1: I just wondered where you got the idea to actually
Speaker 1: put him physically in the show. But there it is
Speaker 1: from Largo. He has some good ones. And then I
Speaker 1: just don't think I lever get you. I drinking coffee
Speaker 1: every morning comes from my place. That's far in the
Speaker 1: history of your podcast. People are gonna be like, when
Speaker 1: did it go downhill? And they're gonna go when Zack
Speaker 1: and Donald decided just to have it be them singing
Speaker 1: favorite songs of theirs, that's kind of although I always
Speaker 1: duck out because Donald has such a sultry, beautiful voice,
Speaker 1: such a good voice. Yeah, I gotta say, since we're
Speaker 1: doing go ahead, Donald, Sorry, I do love me some
Speaker 1: Colin hey though, man, he's such a lovely man as well. Yes,
Speaker 1: I didn't know if for the show thing yet that
Speaker 1: I can give my both positive and bone chilling reaction
Speaker 1: to Donald already said you know, and when dr when
Speaker 1: Johnny c says, why don't you stir stir some things up?
Speaker 1: When she comes to that table of all you happy
Speaker 1: people at the end and decides to rip our show
Speaker 1: apart for the next year, it gave me such glee,
Speaker 1: both to watch how it was performed and how it
Speaker 1: affected every relationship, but also because you guys are all
Speaker 1: so close in many ways to your you know, your
Speaker 1: spirits and your personas in real life. It gave me
Speaker 1: chills because I've had I've been one of the people
Speaker 1: sitting at that table before with my sons. When my
Speaker 1: wife comes in and says thing. He's like, let me,
Speaker 1: let me talk to you guys about the behave here
Speaker 1: yesterday when you just get small and just immediately have
Speaker 1: the By the way, I think Zack's voiceover says, oh,
Speaker 1: but the I've had so many of those, and it
Speaker 1: was so cool to watch you do it, my love.
Speaker 1: He was so good. Yeah, you did a great job
Speaker 1: without that monologue. Do you remember did you work a
Speaker 1: lot on that or did you wing it? I mean,
Speaker 1: you know what you guys probably don't remember is that
Speaker 1: that scene was shot on a Wednesday, and we did
Speaker 1: Drew Carry on a Tuesday night, and for some reason
Speaker 1: there was a mess up and I didn't get the script. Um.
Speaker 1: I was doing Drew Carry late and I didn't get
Speaker 1: the script for the what that monologue was till midnight,
Speaker 1: and I was so mad at Bill. I was like,
Speaker 1: why didn't they deliver me the script early? But it
Speaker 1: builds like it was out since seven, So I was
Speaker 1: insane and then so I had to learn it and
Speaker 1: Drew went really late that night. I remember being so annoyed,
Speaker 1: and I was first up, so I had about five
Speaker 1: hours of sleep and I didn't know it that well,
Speaker 1: and I had only you know, I was in a
Speaker 1: regular show. I had only done one or two episodes
Speaker 1: with you guys that season. No, this is fourth maybe
Speaker 1: not a lot though, And I came in, I had
Speaker 1: this monologue and you guys and I kept messing up
Speaker 1: the lines, and I started getting into a shame spri
Speaker 1: and it was Donald. You were like, you got this.
Speaker 1: You've already done it. You've got it. You were so
Speaker 1: kind to me. Donald, you probably don't remember. And I
Speaker 1: was like, you were like, take a deep breath, you
Speaker 1: got it. You've done it already. You're just now getting
Speaker 1: into your head. I was just telling you all of
Speaker 1: the stuff that they would tell me all year around.
Speaker 1: He was just regurgitating all the ship people that said
Speaker 1: to him. By the way, you know what part of
Speaker 1: it was to my love is um. I remember because
Speaker 1: you were working on his show as a regular in
Speaker 1: which you had two tries to get it start to finish,
Speaker 1: you know, because it was multicam. And I remember all
Speaker 1: of us trying to tell you, no, you've never done
Speaker 1: it the way you want from the beginning to the end.
Speaker 1: But you've done every part the way you want, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? And then we're gonna cut and
Speaker 1: you've really made you upset. I remember that now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But then we got it in one take. And then
Speaker 1: I also thought, um, this single camera is different, like
Speaker 1: I had to do a different way of having to
Speaker 1: learn things. But you know, and also it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: I realized when you get there, no one cares that
Speaker 1: you're working on another show and you were up till
Speaker 1: one in the morning. Everyone just expects you to know
Speaker 1: it and be great all the time. And it was
Speaker 1: just it was a good lesson for me, and I
Speaker 1: love Also that monologue was so good. I didn't want
Speaker 1: to mess it up. I think you did a great job.
Speaker 1: I think it's a great way to It was a
Speaker 1: really clever way to end the season too, Bill, because
Speaker 1: you know, you can't you have to have some sort
Speaker 1: of cliffhanger. And and the whole episode is that we're
Speaker 1: all working as a team, and you've got this montage
Speaker 1: set to Colin Hay where we're all coming together and
Speaker 1: solving a problem. Is like, you can't end a season
Speaker 1: like that. You've got to You've got to blow it
Speaker 1: up and uh, And then I thought that was really
Speaker 1: clever how you had just Christo just come in and
Speaker 1: just fucking destroy everybody, dismantle at all. My favorite part
Speaker 1: was that I wrote it down. Apparently j D is
Speaker 1: very good in bed um that had not been disgusting
Speaker 1: yet by no, you know, because we didn't see our love.
Speaker 1: Be careful, be very careful, you know how to make
Speaker 1: it uncomfortable. It was, that's what you say these guys
Speaker 1: that Krista, they've already done a thing of joking around that.
Speaker 1: I like watching you kiss other people, which I do not.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Don't make by the way, don't make
Speaker 1: that expression, even though people can't see this, don't make
Speaker 1: the expression. Don't don't you're by the way, I'm a
Speaker 1: second way from spreading up there for stop hugging. You're
Speaker 1: not allowed five. That's a good point. I picture there's
Speaker 1: like a bike lock on the outside of the door,
Speaker 1: and Crista unlocks it at four fifty nine, you know what. Also,
Speaker 1: but changing the subject that that moment never happened. You
Speaker 1: can edit that out. I'm sure it's gone. The uh
Speaker 1: I liked after you gave your speech, and I haven't
Speaker 1: given enough props to Johnny c and Ken. First of all,
Speaker 1: Johnny sees ability to make intense anger seem immediately real.
Speaker 1: I found myself intimidated even and couldn't imagine what it
Speaker 1: was like, you know, Donald, you and Zach had to
Speaker 1: do it all more than anybody to act in the
Speaker 1: face of that fury. I mean, and he Oh my goodness,
Speaker 1: it's so loud and so not TV anger that and
Speaker 1: and I contrasted that too. This was the beginning of
Speaker 1: one of the things, you know, when I say I
Speaker 1: watched the show and just like stuff and love other stuff. Uh.
Speaker 1: Ken Jenkins as a man was so funny and not
Speaker 1: just the personified villain, you know, and one of the
Speaker 1: first things that got us there because he starts changing
Speaker 1: in the second year. He goes to speak to Johnny
Speaker 1: C after that speech and does the biggest car, the
Speaker 1: biggest cartoons spin around, and it's so funny. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh man, that dude is funny and we should let
Speaker 1: him be human and quirky and weird. Um, I wish
Speaker 1: you'd come on the show. But he's always moving. He's
Speaker 1: still moving while while we hadn't maybe he didn't rent
Speaker 1: a truck and he's just just doing it by hand.
Speaker 1: While we have you here, Bill, here's a question that
Speaker 1: all of the fans are asking us, you know, quite
Speaker 1: a bit, and I know it has a lot to
Speaker 1: do with schedule or anything like that, but if you
Speaker 1: could ever see another incarnation of Scrubs, what would be
Speaker 1: your dream or your if you had to do it,
Speaker 1: what would how would you like to see Scrubs revisited? Uh? Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I love the characters so much, and um, I think
Speaker 1: one of the things that we tried to do on
Speaker 1: that show is it was an era in which on
Speaker 1: the sitcoms I grew up with, everybody stayed the exact
Speaker 1: same from episode one to episode two, and I like
Speaker 1: to feel that people grew and aged and matured and so,
Speaker 1: you know, like it's it's at one point, by the way,
Speaker 1: Zack and Donald Christopher are constantly pitching me that maybe
Speaker 1: we should just go shoot Um dr Acula and which
Speaker 1: would which would be fun? Admittedly the two of them
Speaker 1: making that movie, and I think it'd be hilarious, But man,
Speaker 1: I'd love to see who j D was as an
Speaker 1: adult and a father, and who Donald, you know, was
Speaker 1: with Judy and with their kids, And I just would
Speaker 1: want to visit with these people again. That's why I
Speaker 1: find the idea of doing a whole another series daunting,
Speaker 1: but the idea of visiting with them and seeing where
Speaker 1: their lives are at and seeing, you know, how they
Speaker 1: react to medicine. I'll tell you the example for it
Speaker 1: is real j D. Okay, not many people know this,
Speaker 1: but the real j D was a young cardiologist when
Speaker 1: we started the show. Then he became a heart surgeon
Speaker 1: and a cardiologist, and then he became so beloved um
Speaker 1: by the interns and residents. He became a huge teaching
Speaker 1: figure and ultimately the CEO of the kelso of the hospital.
Speaker 1: He runs the whole hospital of Kaiser in Los Fielas,
Speaker 1: and in fact is running their COVID command center now.
Speaker 1: And the fact that he has gone from the beginning
Speaker 1: to that very same kind of patriarchal figure that you
Speaker 1: guys needed. I'd love to see j D and Turk
Speaker 1: doing that for other young people. I would hope that
Speaker 1: they'd still love medicine. That's it, and Emily is here.
Speaker 1: It is working. I am so so sorry. Don't worry, Emily.
Speaker 1: It's not you that we missed every Emily. Emily, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you. You are worse than Sarah,
Speaker 1: but we are still very excited show. Sarah had two
Speaker 1: tries and and mess them both up, whereas Emily is
Speaker 1: just joining us for the first time. Emily, Emily, you
Speaker 1: blew it, but it's okay. I'm gonna give you a
Speaker 1: speech to Bill gave me. I need you to come
Speaker 1: in here and bring the energy that you were going
Speaker 1: to bring the first time. That is a callback. That's
Speaker 1: a callback to Donald's first audition. Al right ahead, Emily,
Speaker 1: what's your question? You have Bill Lawrence, you have Kristin Miller,
Speaker 1: Donald Phazon and myself. Hi everyone, and all right, so
Speaker 1: I had I didn't know that Bill and Christo were
Speaker 1: going to be on originally, so I changed my question
Speaker 1: a little bit. And since I think you guys are
Speaker 1: talking about this season finale, which UM talks about like
Speaker 1: all the impact that the characters had, I'm sorry to
Speaker 1: cut you off. I'm sorry to cut you off. I
Speaker 1: have to cut you off. I'm sorry. You have a
Speaker 1: stethoscope on. Is that a stethoscope? Nope, this is my braid.
Speaker 1: But this is my name badge with my goal. Okay,
Speaker 1: are you a doctor or are you I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: a E. M. T. Phlebotomist Combo. I'm calling from the
Speaker 1: office right now. I'm hiding in the break room. That's awesome.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for all the stuff you do.
Speaker 1: And I've got surgeries going on through the other door.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that is amazing. First of all, thank
Speaker 1: you very much. Thank thank you guys. You guys inspired me.
Speaker 1: That's all right off here, but sorry, that's actually part
Speaker 1: of my question is I'm I'm going to use the
Speaker 1: just because I'm not a doctor and nurse yet, so
Speaker 1: I'm just an e m T phi botomist. But have
Speaker 1: you guys heard from other fans any amazing stories where
Speaker 1: they said that you got your show inspired them. And
Speaker 1: that's for all four of you. I'll go first. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all the time I will. I will encounter nurses and
Speaker 1: doctors and paramedics and e m T s who say
Speaker 1: Scrubs was the thing that that got them into it.
Speaker 1: Some say they had no interest before and and and
Speaker 1: and and Scrubs and and the camaraderie and all the
Speaker 1: adventure made them want to do it. And then some
Speaker 1: say they were thinking about it and Scrubs put them
Speaker 1: over the edge. Um, but yeah, I mean throughout my
Speaker 1: life Um, there's been lots and lots of people and
Speaker 1: sometimes I'll be walking along the street and people be
Speaker 1: like they'll do adult take because they're excited to see me,
Speaker 1: and I go to talk to me like weird weird doctors.
Speaker 1: We just graduated bed school and we scrub as our
Speaker 1: favorite thing. So it's it's such a good feeling. I mean,
Speaker 1: to the fact that we could have inspired anybody is
Speaker 1: is a really really good feeling. I'm sure you guys
Speaker 1: have had the same experience, right absolutely. That's also why
Speaker 1: we you know, we did the podcast. Also, this is
Speaker 1: this isn't just for the fans of Scrubs. This is
Speaker 1: also for everyone out there in the medical community, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Just the respect and the love
Speaker 1: that we have for all of you guys is immense.
Speaker 1: And so you know, when we we were on a
Speaker 1: show that was a love letter to everybody and that
Speaker 1: community as well. And so this is all about y'all.
Speaker 1: So if it inspires anyone, if it makes anyone, if
Speaker 1: it makes anyone feel like they want to get into
Speaker 1: medical it makes me happy that I was a part
Speaker 1: of something that you know, has turned people's lives around.
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't know what I wanted to do
Speaker 1: then I saw Scrubs, and now I'm a doctor or
Speaker 1: now i'm uh, you know, I work in the medical profession.
Speaker 1: So absolutely it happens all the time. And I'm I'm
Speaker 1: very I'm I'm very proud that I was on something
Speaker 1: like this that's reached out and touched so many people.
Speaker 1: What about you, guys, Bill Krista, I always you know, Bill,
Speaker 1: if he sees a new doctor or has to get
Speaker 1: his tooth pulled, it's the first thing he drops right
Speaker 1: that comes out fast, like it fast. I often have people,
Speaker 1: um say to me, doctors and nurses will say that
Speaker 1: Scrubs was the first show that they felt accurately portrayed
Speaker 1: what it's like to be an intern and a resident,
Speaker 1: you know, in terms of all the stories that you
Speaker 1: guys did, and the and the reality of how hard
Speaker 1: it was now tiring, et cetera. And Bill didn't the
Speaker 1: A m A come out and say we were the
Speaker 1: most accurate show. They did, they said, we're the most
Speaker 1: accurate medical show. And first of all, Emily, thanks for
Speaker 1: doing what you do. That's super cool. Um, and uh, secondly,
Speaker 1: you know, it's really weird. We're gonna. I'm sure we'll
Speaker 1: talk about all this stuff too on other podcasts, if
Speaker 1: you ever nice enough to have me and or Krista
Speaker 1: back or Emily back or on Emily's podcast. But um,
Speaker 1: when you're involved in creating something and it's been years,
Speaker 1: if you're you know it's even presumptive to call yourself
Speaker 1: an artist, you look at these things and you go,
Speaker 1: here's what I got right, Here's what I got wrong,
Speaker 1: Here's what I wish I could fix, Here's what I
Speaker 1: wish I could change. And the one thing that I
Speaker 1: has thought we got right top to bottom, actors, directors,
Speaker 1: everybody else was because of the real j D said,
Speaker 1: We're allowed to do as many jokes as we want
Speaker 1: as long as you make it clear how much the
Speaker 1: doctors and nurses truly care and how much they will
Speaker 1: give everything for patients. And the fact that the A
Speaker 1: m A this year. You know howevery many years after
Speaker 1: we wrapped twenty year anniversary at the start whatever it was,
Speaker 1: asked all of you guys to do their graduations since
Speaker 1: their graduations got canceled for all the new young doctors.
Speaker 1: Meant so much to me that you guys are still
Speaker 1: part of the lexicon of young people, you know, who
Speaker 1: aren't going into medicine anymore to be wealthy like the
Speaker 1: old cliches, are going into it to be of service
Speaker 1: and to do something really important. That's probably the best
Speaker 1: thing I'll take from this show. And that's why it's
Speaker 1: so cool to talk to people like Emily. Hey, Emily,
Speaker 1: it seems like you have a lot of people in
Speaker 1: the room. What you want to turn the thing around?
Speaker 1: She got called into surgery, she got they were like
Speaker 1: we need you on the doors, saying do not disturb it.
Speaker 1: Let him come in and let me come in. Them
Speaker 1: in and let them Two doctors and a nurse just
Speaker 1: walk in, and they're like, guys, are they out there
Speaker 1: in the hall right now? Are they tell him to
Speaker 1: come in? Don't? Yes, Yes, Zach I want to say, dude,
Speaker 1: man should be the freaking queen of the freaking Are okay, guys?
Speaker 1: The Scrubs podcast wants to see you all. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of you right about to say yes, that's part
Speaker 1: of my clinic, right. That's very cool in my mind. Emily.
Speaker 1: They were like, we need you stat he's coding, and
Speaker 1: you were like, shut up, I'm on the podcast. The
Speaker 1: fact that that hasn't happened yet. All right, do you
Speaker 1: have another question for us, Emily? I do, and it's
Speaker 1: a little sillier. Go ahead, all right. So, knowing how
Speaker 1: big of lame is fans you guys are for Christa
Speaker 1: or maybe musicals in general, in any Broadway play or production,
Speaker 1: which character and which play? Oh, I would be Jean
Speaker 1: bel Jean, you know, but was here. I'm not getting excluded,
Speaker 1: and I would be Jean Beljean. But I would do
Speaker 1: it in Paris because I would sing it all port servitude,
Speaker 1: that's miss in French. That's the only person I know
Speaker 1: that can sing pieces of names in French. Donald, Who
Speaker 1: would you be if I could be anyone in any
Speaker 1: Broadway show? Wow? You know the one musical that I
Speaker 1: loved growing up was Mary Poppins, and we were very
Speaker 1: lucky to have Dick Van Dyke on the on Scrubs
Speaker 1: for one episode. So if I could be any character
Speaker 1: that he played on Broadway, I would love to be
Speaker 1: Burt from Mary Poppins. You'd kill it, you kill it.
Speaker 1: I would love that. I'd even do that. I'd even
Speaker 1: do the fake accent and everything. I'd sunk up the
Speaker 1: accident on purpose, oh Mary Poppins. But yeah, Christie, you
Speaker 1: would go if Donald started Mary Poppins, I really, I
Speaker 1: would call you every day and be like, Krista, I
Speaker 1: gotta ticket for you. Christie, didn't you come to mind
Speaker 1: Broadway Musical? You'd go for Donald? I did. I would
Speaker 1: go for Donald. But why are you guys pressuring me?
Speaker 1: Because this would be one of those things where I
Speaker 1: pressure you, So I'd be like, yo, come on, really
Speaker 1: I would go for Donald. I wouldn't. I'd be mad
Speaker 1: at him after. I'm probably too old to do it now.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but I always wanted to do Annie
Speaker 1: as Annie. And I'm not sure if it's too late,
Speaker 1: but maybe Emily and see if Zach or Donald and
Speaker 1: Christi can finishes Emily. One of my favorite lines from
Speaker 1: a secondary character on the show was Nurse Roberts had
Speaker 1: to weave early Pip. You know what I love about
Speaker 1: that bill We talked about thought on the show. It's
Speaker 1: that Nurse Roberts was offended that you would think her
Speaker 1: nephew would be anything, but the league showed she had.
Speaker 1: She had attitude like pipping bitch. If the show the
Speaker 1: show is god Spell, it would have been god god, um, well, Emily,
Speaker 1: thank you. We're gonna keep you on because the show
Speaker 1: is ending. We've done the show, We've gone through it all.
Speaker 1: As Howard Stern always says, Christa, what does he say?
Speaker 1: So you've said it all. We've said it all. You've
Speaker 1: said too much. We've said too much. We said it all.
Speaker 1: I want to thank you Bill and Christa because this
Speaker 1: was fun. We did a whole season, you guys. We
Speaker 1: we did a whole season of Scrubs rewatch podcast. Congratulations. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's really I want to thank Joel and Daniel to
Speaker 1: not Daniel after today, but no, no, they're both so kind.
Speaker 1: I think Dan does not deserve thank you for today.
Speaker 1: I disagree with you, Zach. I disagree with you. I
Speaker 1: agree to tell you something right now. You guys don't
Speaker 1: know this out there every Tuesday and Thursday. If it
Speaker 1: wasn't for Daniel and Joel, y'all wouldn't hear such crisp
Speaker 1: recordings and great high Larry. Look, if it wasn't for them,
Speaker 1: we wouldn't be here on your podcast radio thing, whatever
Speaker 1: it is that thank you. I will listen. Listen. They're
Speaker 1: not talking again. I want Yeah. I fell asleep while
Speaker 1: you were doing that monologue. Listen. I want to thank
Speaker 1: these guys. They do a fantastic job. I want to
Speaker 1: thank everybody for listening. This has really been fun. Donald
Speaker 1: and I thought this would be a fun, little entertaining
Speaker 1: thing to do UM, but then COVID happened and it
Speaker 1: became our only job and it's been so much fun
Speaker 1: and Uma escape to and it's hearing everything. Everybody's reaction
Speaker 1: to it has been been a blast. So so thank you,
Speaker 1: Thank you for Bill for making all of this happen.
Speaker 1: Thank you to Christopher Um so many things, including as
Speaker 1: Bill said, so much of the music that y'all love
Speaker 1: UM on Scrubs was chosen by Christa. So don't forget
Speaker 1: to tell your friends, please spread the word. Don't forget
Speaker 1: to rate the show. Remember like the Uber Driver five
Speaker 1: stars five stars, because apparently that that that helps our
Speaker 1: our standing in the ranks, and we're very competitive. We
Speaker 1: like to be high in the ranks. We want to
Speaker 1: also thank We also want to thank all of our
Speaker 1: all of the crew members from this show and all
Speaker 1: of the directors who came on the show. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: after this season, when this season ended, the tone was
Speaker 1: now set and Uh, anyone who came in was now
Speaker 1: playing in this big arena. That Bill, the directors and
Speaker 1: Krista and Neil created with the music and the show,
Speaker 1: the tone was set. And so we want to thank
Speaker 1: we want to thank the directors. Give Neil a little
Speaker 1: more credit than he deserves it. But he was one
Speaker 1: of the she knows, Krista knows. It's just Neil. Neil.
Speaker 1: By the way, I didn't do the music, Neil. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know. You didn't do the music with Neil, but
Speaker 1: he did some of the music. And every time he
Speaker 1: gets mentioned, don't don't give him any credit. I love
Speaker 1: Neil Goldman, but he didn't do the music with me.
