Speaker 1: Oh my god, look, how let's go look it really
Speaker 1: looks great. Dude, you lost forty pounds in your head.
Speaker 1: I wish I lost. Do you notice how I mean?
Speaker 1: You're you. You don't because you look in the mirror
Speaker 1: every day. But to those of us who don't see
Speaker 1: you every week, you lost a lot of weight in
Speaker 1: your face. I lost a lot of weight in my body.
Speaker 1: It looks like two I dropped fifteen pounds. Uh, just changing,
Speaker 1: not necessarily changing. I changed how I ate, Yes, but
Speaker 1: I was losing weight before that, strictly from quitting the
Speaker 1: weed and the booze. Yeah. Well, I'm finding that for
Speaker 1: those of you curious, if you want to expedite your
Speaker 1: your your your fitness, um, giving up animals and alcohol
Speaker 1: is definitely a a expedites things. Well yeah, well, giving
Speaker 1: up the weed, it's really really did the trick, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Not only that freaking we are
Speaker 1: THHC is stored in your fat cells, and so it
Speaker 1: takes a long time to get out of your body,
Speaker 1: and when your body is detoxing from it. A lot
Speaker 1: of people think, oh, I could smoke weed. You smoke
Speaker 1: weed like me and Snoop Dog, and then try to quit.
Speaker 1: You're gonna go. You're gonna have some withdrawl. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I had with drawls like Night's Sweats and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna tell you something right now. Night Sweat
Speaker 1: to kind of help with the losing of the weight,
Speaker 1: but we don't endorse that as a means of trying
Speaker 1: to lose weight. I think alcohols giving up alcohol, not
Speaker 1: just the empty calories, but also what happens. You get
Speaker 1: buzzed and you're like, oh fuck it, let's order cheeseburgers,
Speaker 1: you know, right right? Well, yeah, that that helped too.
Speaker 1: How are you? I miss you. I'm glad that I
Speaker 1: see you back in your closet. I'm back in the closet.
Speaker 1: It's good to see you. Guys. Hey, I want to
Speaker 1: say something, not to toot my own horn, but Daniel
Speaker 1: please insert a tooting horn. No, he's here. The film
Speaker 1: that I made with Christopher Walkin is currently number four
Speaker 1: on iTunes. Amazing congratulation. That's awesome. That's called Percy Verse
Speaker 1: Goliath and um please watch it. If you're listening and
Speaker 1: you can hear my voice, I would love for you
Speaker 1: to check it out. I have a I have a
Speaker 1: I have a supporting part of relatively small part. I
Speaker 1: play his lawyer. It's a true story about a farmer
Speaker 1: who took on Monsanto in Canada, and it is the
Speaker 1: ultimate David and Goliath story. This man had the most
Speaker 1: insane courage. And um, Christopher Walkin is Christopher Walkin for
Speaker 1: God's sakes, and Christina Ricci's in it. And you know,
Speaker 1: we made this movie for ten dollars and it has
Speaker 1: no marketing budget. And I just thought, Oh, this, no
Speaker 1: one's ever going to see this. And then I looked today.
Speaker 1: I looked this morning. He was number four on iTunes.
Speaker 1: That's amazing, dude, that is absolutely awesome. Gunderus applause, Dan, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got this one, danel Eric I have the first
Speaker 1: time I'm to give myself of thunders. Applause. Yes, Donald,
Speaker 1: I have your key turners, so when we say turn
Speaker 1: your key, we can do all of that. And apparently
Speaker 1: it's set up so that it can actually like Daniel,
Speaker 1: you'll have to be the one to do it, but
Speaker 1: it's set up to where you could plug something into
Speaker 1: it and it actually functions as a mechanism. So that's awesome.
Speaker 1: That is that fellow who made those coming on the show.
Speaker 1: I believe he's our guest today. Oh, we can ask
Speaker 1: him how to do it? Yeah? What else is going on?
Speaker 1: I watched a really great movie. I gotta say something, Ready,
Speaker 1: go for it. You know who's almost underrated actors in Hollywood?
Speaker 1: Donald Fazon? I agree, I agree, I agree. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about he needs more work. I'm telling you what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. Yes, if you're listening and you need an
Speaker 1: actor called Donald, who's the most underrated actor? No, I'm
Speaker 1: not the most, but a very underrated, amazing actress who
Speaker 1: I watched in a film that was dry up jaw
Speaker 1: good last night is Molly Shannon. Now you might know
Speaker 1: Molly Shannon as genius comedian from SNL and from all
Speaker 1: the movies she's been in, but recently she's been doing
Speaker 1: some dramatic work and holy shit, you have to see
Speaker 1: this movie called Other People. I'm I'm I'm I'm giving
Speaker 1: it ten out of ten stars. It was incredible. And
Speaker 1: I mean, my brother, why, my brother's in town and
Speaker 1: he goes, I can't believe she didn't get nominated for this,
Speaker 1: And I had the same thought, Um, she is so
Speaker 1: fucking talented, that woman. I mean, we knew I knew
Speaker 1: her to be a comedic genius, but she brings the
Speaker 1: drama chops too. I feel like the Oscars this year
Speaker 1: was a little weird. I just to put it out there,
Speaker 1: you know. I thought Chadwick Boseman was a shoe in
Speaker 1: to win so today. That's why they put it last.
Speaker 1: That was so weird. I don't know, just weird. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't get it. I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: know what happened. I do have to say, I do
Speaker 1: have to say that that Anthony Hopkins performance in The
Speaker 1: Father is one of the most amazing performances of every
Speaker 1: similar series. Sir, well it is, sir Anthony hopp Did
Speaker 1: you see it? Did you guys see it? I did
Speaker 1: not see it. I was sure. I was sure Chadwick
Speaker 1: was gonna win, like like everyone, including the producers of
Speaker 1: the show, even to my friends that day. I was like,
Speaker 1: Chadwick's gonna win for obvious reasons and because he's an
Speaker 1: extraordinary actor, and people are so heartbroken by what happened.
Speaker 1: But I said to myself, but and it's a close race,
Speaker 1: because that Anthony Hoppikin's performance was holy shit. I can't
Speaker 1: believe it was a masterclass in acting. And then I
Speaker 1: was genuinely surprised like everybody when he won. But do
Speaker 1: see the movie because the movie absolutely don't. Don't if
Speaker 1: you're gonna, if you're gonna complain about it, like I am,
Speaker 1: I have to watch every movie before I can say,
Speaker 1: like I thought, Chadwick was a shoe wind to win
Speaker 1: because of his body of work. You know what he's
Speaker 1: meant to the entertainment industry since he since he's come through. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, and he passed away, and I was
Speaker 1: hoping that, you know, like other actors who have passed
Speaker 1: away in the past, UH would have there. He that's
Speaker 1: a perfect example, would get me. You know what. It
Speaker 1: might not be the best performance of his career, but
Speaker 1: we're not going to get an opportunity to see anymore.
Speaker 1: So let's give him. Let's give him. I think so
Speaker 1: many people thought that Tom. I mean, they literally restructured
Speaker 1: the show so that it would end with this beautiful moment.
Speaker 1: I'm sure his his widow, um speaking as she has
Speaker 1: done so eloquently before. Um. So it was shocking to everybody. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But that being said, let's talk about the television show Scrub,
Speaker 1: shall we about show we made about nurses? Said, he's
Speaker 1: a story. Yeada around here, YadA around here. That day,
Speaker 1: I had my brother and my friend Preston in town
Speaker 1: and I said, Hey, I got to watch the show
Speaker 1: for the podcast. Do you want to watch with me?
Speaker 1: And um They had lots of jazz cabbage and I UM.
Speaker 1: I was like a little bit nervous because I was like, Oh,
Speaker 1: what if it's a one that's not that funny. They
Speaker 1: were fucking hysterically laughing at this episode. I was not smoking,
Speaker 1: but hysterically laughing in this episode. It's a really funny one.
Speaker 1: It has some great moments in it. I mean, I mean,
Speaker 1: let's I mean, one of the funniest moments in Scrub's
Speaker 1: history is you naked in the fetal position on the ground.
Speaker 1: I even think it's funny. When I'm on the ground,
Speaker 1: you could see me breaking as we're saying. As I'm saying,
Speaker 1: you are yeah, I'm smiling. I'm smiling. I have a
Speaker 1: smile on my face. Your penis was well hidden. You
Speaker 1: must have because your penis isn't one you can just
Speaker 1: tuck under. You really have to sort of strap it
Speaker 1: down like like like like a leg holster. You have
Speaker 1: a leg holster. You have my cheat sheet for where
Speaker 1: you are? This is a guess. No, that's not it.
Speaker 1: You honor me there it is. No. So, did you
Speaker 1: have sort of a well I think in the firearm
Speaker 1: industry they call a leg holster to contain your shaft. No,
Speaker 1: I I wear compression shorts, though I see to keep
Speaker 1: it in. No, but you're naked in this particular shot.
Speaker 1: We're talking. No, no, no, I have one compression shorts
Speaker 1: and I have one box. Oh I zoned out. I
Speaker 1: just pictured you naked. You were just looking for huh. Well,
Speaker 1: I don't want it. But it's nice to observe a
Speaker 1: grothy shaft. Its natural habitat you anyway, I'll stop there. Hey, um,
Speaker 1: so wait, Carlin, I forgot the Carlin took really break
Speaker 1: up and like could be on the verge of ending
Speaker 1: their relationship. I forgot all of this, to be honest
Speaker 1: with you, And when Shay was talking about it, I
Speaker 1: was like, I don't remember that. And then the scene
Speaker 1: pops up where they're sitting by the grave at the
Speaker 1: end of the show, and you know, spoiler alert, they
Speaker 1: don't get back together at the end of this episode
Speaker 1: either man, like, they're still kind of fucked up. I
Speaker 1: really didn't remember that that that obviously it was wise
Speaker 1: as a showrunner to create drama and so the audience
Speaker 1: is concerned. But I didn't remember it at all that
Speaker 1: you guys are literally like living in separate houses and
Speaker 1: talking about not getting back together. Has there ever been
Speaker 1: a show where the main characters are on the show
Speaker 1: or the loved the characters who are in love with
Speaker 1: each other get divorced. Oh, I'm sure, like they threatened
Speaker 1: it on Blackish, but it didn't happen. Like, is there
Speaker 1: a show where it starts off where everything's, you know, awesome,
Speaker 1: and then four seasons in they're like, let's get divorced.
Speaker 1: I don't know, Joel, are you looking that up? Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Um and Willing. Great Grace gets divorced. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but Grace isn't married to Will. That's you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Grace is married? Yeah, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like they I don't think it happens. I don't think
Speaker 1: it's ever happened. I don't know. But William of Van
Speaker 1: Duser Lawrence clearly wanted to create some season four drama.
Speaker 1: But oh, we're going so fast. This is Hey, you'll
Speaker 1: love this. It's four twenty. This is episode four twenty. Right,
Speaker 1: we're going so fast. Yeah, I mean even now, even
Speaker 1: though we slowed down to one a week, it feels
Speaker 1: like this is flying by. We really got to get
Speaker 1: our almost halfway there. Yeah, we gotta get our post
Speaker 1: scrubs plans in order. Um, we do need to get
Speaker 1: that in order. How's your water drinking coming? I see
Speaker 1: you sipping. Yeah, I'm supposed to. Now. I moved on
Speaker 1: to a gallon a day. Um you were You were
Speaker 1: not at a gallon a day? No, I was at
Speaker 1: This thing that I drink out of is two gallons,
Speaker 1: and um, that's two gallons right there. Sorry I misspoke.
Speaker 1: This thing right here is two leaders. Um. So um,
Speaker 1: I have I have this scene where I'm where I'm shirtless,
Speaker 1: and I'd like to look my best, right, because if
Speaker 1: you're going to broadcast yourself to Earth, you want to
Speaker 1: look your best. Hold On one second, man, you've been
Speaker 1: drinking only two leaders a day. I went straight full
Speaker 1: gallon a day from the gate, and I was pissing
Speaker 1: like a race. The problem is that you pissing becomes
Speaker 1: sort of a very large part of your day, right,
Speaker 1: Like I have to I gotta plan. Yeah, you gotta
Speaker 1: when I'm drinking, you gotta plan. When you gotta drive somewhere,
Speaker 1: you gotta plan. Like, good thing, I'm not going to
Speaker 1: the movie theater because you couldn't go to the movie theater.
Speaker 1: You're not watching a movie. You're not watching the movie.
Speaker 1: You're spending most of your time in the bathroom looking
Speaker 1: at you know, I'm not going to be doing a
Speaker 1: gallon a day when I'm not gearing up to me.
Speaker 1: But that's so healthy for you are not well. Two
Speaker 1: leaders is one thing? A gallon is like, is I
Speaker 1: think I think I could shift one step back a gallon? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel great, So for what it's worth, it feel great.
Speaker 1: But maybe my bladder will like expand or that's what
Speaker 1: I'm thinking. Like, the thing is you have to spread
Speaker 1: it out with the keep chugging or whatever the message is,
Speaker 1: because when you do it that way, you pee once
Speaker 1: and then you pee again later when you drink, Like
Speaker 1: I've made the mistake of being like, oh man, I
Speaker 1: didn't make it to the end, and then drinking like
Speaker 1: a half a gallon of water and then going to
Speaker 1: bed and then getting up at one. I find if
Speaker 1: I put a little lemon in it, um, it makes
Speaker 1: it way more appealing because lemon water is delicious, Like,
Speaker 1: who doesn't like that? But just plain water is Uh,
Speaker 1: I've gotten used to it. I've gotten used to plain water. Really. Yeah, Now, Joel,
Speaker 1: we had talked about at every time I post about
Speaker 1: this water bottle that with the inspirational things on it,
Speaker 1: fans are always in my Instagram like where the hell
Speaker 1: do you get that? And then of course I thought
Speaker 1: we should make since Donald and I both use this
Speaker 1: a fake doctor's real friends, one that can have the
Speaker 1: times on it, and like you are deservant and eagle
Speaker 1: Eagle will be the last one you made an eagle.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about right right that we're working
Speaker 1: on it. We are trying to figure out the best
Speaker 1: way to do it, but I think it's a great idea. Well,
Speaker 1: keep them keep the world hydrated. That's yeah, one bottle
Speaker 1: at a time. That's If there's one thing everybody listening
Speaker 1: has always heard from doctors or healthy people is that
Speaker 1: you gotta drink a lot of water. I've never done it.
Speaker 1: I've been so bad at it my whole life, and um, this.
Speaker 1: This bottle at least helps you because you're staring at
Speaker 1: it and you're like, come on, I don't want to fail.
Speaker 1: It's three pm. I'm not at the three pm line.
Speaker 1: Come on making competitive? Did you laugh at? You know, well,
Speaker 1: how would you feel if your husband was on the
Speaker 1: phone talking to some other woman? I pretty feel pretty bad, yeah,
Speaker 1: but mostly because I have a husband. Did you laugh at?
Speaker 1: I laughed a lot of stuff. Now, what about when
Speaker 1: you go don't mention the carnival? And I'm like, funny
Speaker 1: because it reminds me of Carla. Remove the NIVE and
Speaker 1: switch the L and the A and then you see
Speaker 1: j D like like like fuck with the letters on
Speaker 1: the screen. That was so funny. But then we still
Speaker 1: went to the carnival. I know, I just laughed at
Speaker 1: remove the NIV like Turke had already. Turke had already
Speaker 1: done the breakdown of the word to figure out how
Speaker 1: to turn Carnival into Carlo. You know, I knew Elliott
Speaker 1: was a nervous poor but I didn't know she was
Speaker 1: that much of a nervously. I don't like this either.
Speaker 1: I do not want to talk to anyone. I've mentioned
Speaker 1: this before. I don't like talking. No, if I'm in
Speaker 1: a public stall and someone else's pooing, I can't pooh? Oh?
Speaker 1: Can you can? You? Can you sit down in a
Speaker 1: public bathroom? Finished? Let me finish with with with what
Speaker 1: are the three quarters of an inch of metal between
Speaker 1: you and and the other person's Like we had this conversation, dude,
Speaker 1: all right, well some people haven't heard every episode. Can
Speaker 1: you do that I can't do? Now? Listen to me, man,
Speaker 1: I'm the man that we could be online at the
Speaker 1: movie theater to see you go home to pooh? I
Speaker 1: forgot Yeah, I will go home and pooh. And it
Speaker 1: all stems from when I was doing this commercial and
Speaker 1: this dude's dad was in the bathroom and was going,
Speaker 1: oh god, why when someone screamed the corn? Oh god,
Speaker 1: have you ever screamed why while having a bomb movement?
Speaker 1: That's not good? Oh no? Why? No? Yeah? Listening and
Speaker 1: it and listen, I have and a curly or a
Speaker 1: letter jay as long as it's a dude, I haven't.
Speaker 1: I was so dehydrated that it was like that thing
Speaker 1: was stuck at the exit. Okay, you can stop there, Joe,
Speaker 1: but wait, I want to say one more thing. So
Speaker 1: what I do if I have to do the public bathroom,
Speaker 1: is I first and it's and it's multiple stalls. I
Speaker 1: have to do the duck to see if there's other feet.
Speaker 1: If there's you get close to the floor. You get
Speaker 1: close to the floor like that. Huh. I don't lie down.
Speaker 1: I bend over see if there's other feet. If there's
Speaker 1: anyone else, I'm out. I gotta wait. Okay. So if
Speaker 1: you've got in the bathroom and if you got to
Speaker 1: pool real bad, that's a wrap. You're just gonna just
Speaker 1: shit yourself. What do you do? I find another bathroom
Speaker 1: in that building? Or I um, if you at the
Speaker 1: movie theater, what are you gonna do. I've never pooted
Speaker 1: a movie theater, Okay, I'm talking about like you know,
Speaker 1: you haven't pooded at a restaurant. I don't think I've
Speaker 1: pooded a restaurant. Mostly it's on these examples. I mean,
Speaker 1: like I'm let's say I'm working, I'm editing a show
Speaker 1: and I'm in some big post production facility and here
Speaker 1: I Warner Brothers, or you're at Yea or like you know,
Speaker 1: you know, when we're on movies, you have a you
Speaker 1: have a trailer, you at least have a trailer with
Speaker 1: your own with your own toilet. But I don't know
Speaker 1: any any of I don't think I've ever pooted a
Speaker 1: at a restaurant. Although on my birthday I had a birthday.
Speaker 1: My do you remember this? Were you there? What fortyths birthday?
Speaker 1: I no, I wasn't at your four. I was at
Speaker 1: your forty first nobody was at your forty at the birthday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they had it. This is what happened. You came, you
Speaker 1: got sick. So I arranged to have twenty twenty five
Speaker 1: people at a dinner at a very fancy restaurant cat
Speaker 1: in New York, in New York, and I, um, I
Speaker 1: don't know if you ever gotten food poisoning or listener
Speaker 1: or YouTube, but what all of a sudden I was
Speaker 1: as I was, I was got like all dressed up
Speaker 1: people had flown in. It was going to be a
Speaker 1: big It's my fortieth birthday. Was a big deal. And
Speaker 1: as I'm sitting out the name cards on the table,
Speaker 1: I started to feel that rumble, you know that rumble
Speaker 1: where you're like, oh no, And I didn't have any boot,
Speaker 1: I didn't have any booze in me or anything. It
Speaker 1: was just something. I'm sitting out the fucking name cards
Speaker 1: around the table, like making sure the seating arrangement is right.
Speaker 1: You probably had Debars's Rhythm of the Night in your head.
Speaker 1: To the beat to the Rhythm of the night. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's my birthday night. I had popping myself and then
Speaker 1: I was like and then I'm like, oh no, So
Speaker 1: then I run. I start to feel I'm in a puke.
Speaker 1: I guess haven't even arrived yet. And this is a
Speaker 1: fancy restaurant in New York and meatpacking District called Catch
Speaker 1: and and I go. Now, I run into the bathroom.
Speaker 1: In the bathroom because it's a party place, hasn't attendant.
Speaker 1: That's to make sure that people don't I guess, do
Speaker 1: drugs or have sex or whatever it's meant to the
Speaker 1: attendant in a bathroom, I assume is meant people think, oh,
Speaker 1: it's a fancy place. The guy's gonna give me a
Speaker 1: mint and hand me paper towels. But and I gotta
Speaker 1: give him a dollar. Yeah. I think he's really there
Speaker 1: to make sure no one does drugs or fucks against
Speaker 1: the sink orf or if he's smart about it, he's
Speaker 1: my fucking drug deal And he's like, I got that shit,
Speaker 1: go in the stall. Okay, maybe cut that out. No,
Speaker 1: you can't leave that. Everyone likes to hear how Donald
Speaker 1: would hustle as a bathroom attendant if I was a
Speaker 1: bathroom anyway. Anyway, So the stall has also been adjusted
Speaker 1: at this restaurant so that it doesn't go anywhere near
Speaker 1: the floor again, for the same reasons. They don't want
Speaker 1: people congregating in there together. There's only one stall, it's
Speaker 1: probably the bottom. The door is probably three feet off
Speaker 1: the ground. I don't know what the fucking stall door
Speaker 1: is blocking, but I have to puke. So I'm down
Speaker 1: on my knees and I'm trying to fucking get this
Speaker 1: puke out because I'm like in my mind, I'm like,
Speaker 1: if I just puke, get this out, no harm, no foul.
Speaker 1: Go back to my fortieth birthday party. And then the
Speaker 1: guy guy comes into the bathroom behind me because it's
Speaker 1: you know, a multiple thing, and he says the bathroom lieutendant,
Speaker 1: pointing at me. I can hear him see him pointing
Speaker 1: at my legs because everyone can see me. It's it's
Speaker 1: a high stall door. And he goes really loudly so
Speaker 1: I can hear go, wow already, meaning like it's only
Speaker 1: like eight thirty. Why are you puking already? Rude? And
Speaker 1: now mind you, I have nothing in my body and
Speaker 1: so I'm not like not like drunk or anything. So
Speaker 1: I'm like, I can't get it up. Can't get up.
Speaker 1: I say. I tip the guy like twenty bucks. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, but I'm probably gonna be back to puke. Um.
Speaker 1: I don't feel well. And he's like okay, and so,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, do you want to buy some blow? No,
Speaker 1: I'm just kiddy. So I go back to the table,
Speaker 1: all the guests arriving, I'm smiling and everyone I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, this is really bad. This is really bad.
Speaker 1: This is really bad. And everyone's sitting down and I
Speaker 1: run out the door. I'm like, fuck that bathroom. I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna go puke on the street. So I run
Speaker 1: down to the street and there's a dumpster like across
Speaker 1: the street. I start puking like like fire hose, Like
Speaker 1: stand by me, fire hose pukes straight up projectile varment. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And of course people are people are passing on the
Speaker 1: street being like oh my god, this guy again, same attitude,
Speaker 1: like little early buddy, you know that kind of thing.
Speaker 1: Everyone thinks I'm hammering, but I'm stone cold, sober food poisoning,
Speaker 1: and every time I puke. I won't tell you the
Speaker 1: whole story, but there's like fifteen more times. I keep thinking,
Speaker 1: this will be the time where it's over and I can.
Speaker 1: I've gotten it out of my did the dealer slap
Speaker 1: and push it away? Yeah, the dealer clap and push
Speaker 1: away from the tape. Yeah, now I've already paid for
Speaker 1: this dinner. Everyone's here. Now. The good news is when
Speaker 1: I went back everyone, I could see everyone like you
Speaker 1: would you. They think I'm They think I'm out around
Speaker 1: socializing with other people. No one's thinking about me. They're
Speaker 1: all getting drunk, they're all eating sushi, they're all talking
Speaker 1: to each other. And finally I go to my mom.
Speaker 1: Was like it was one of those moments where even
Speaker 1: you're forty, you need your mom and I'm like, Mom,
Speaker 1: what the fuck? I probably didn't say fuck to my mom. Mom,
Speaker 1: what the heck am I supposed to do? Like? What
Speaker 1: is somebody supposed to do in this here? I'm puking
Speaker 1: at dumpsters outside and she goes, you have to go
Speaker 1: home and I was like, you're right, I'm gonna French exit.
Speaker 1: Don't tell anyone, or if they ask, you can tell
Speaker 1: me at the end. So I grabbed my coat and
Speaker 1: I left, and everyone had a great time at my
Speaker 1: birthday and I paid the bill. Wow, that's very nice
Speaker 1: of you to pay that bill, buddy. Oh you kidding me?
Speaker 1: Come on, they all came to my big birthday party,
Speaker 1: and I was incapacitud um. The next year was the
Speaker 1: next year, Well, I rationalized the next year being like,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be my fortieth birthday. That was a
Speaker 1: that's that's a mulligan. Is that what you say? Yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a mulligan and uh and we're gonna
Speaker 1: go to Mexico and go all out. And then we did.
Speaker 1: And that's infamously got woozy. That that was when I
Speaker 1: got brother josh Is in town and we were we
Speaker 1: were laughing about you getting woozy. Yeah, nothing makes him
Speaker 1: laugh harder than you going I was woozy. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm glad it didn't. I'm glad it didn't
Speaker 1: come out both ends because that would have been really embarrassing. Dude. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So it was horrible. It was horrible. I mean, if
Speaker 1: you've ever had food, I'm assuming it was food poisoning
Speaker 1: from So it wasn't trust me, it wasn't from Catch,
Speaker 1: which is an incredible restaurant. It was so it happened
Speaker 1: during because I didn't even have a bite of cat.
Speaker 1: It was it happened in some of the restaurant or something.
Speaker 1: I wonder. I wonder how Elliott would deal with this
Speaker 1: problem then, you know what I mean, like that is
Speaker 1: a that's one of those moments where if she can't pooh,
Speaker 1: if she's a nervous poor, if you're a nervous poor,
Speaker 1: I guess you'd have to project she would just throw
Speaker 1: up on everybody. Well, Ellie's extreme. Elliott decides tells Carla
Speaker 1: that if she cannot handle the you know, talking on
Speaker 1: the toy rules, she's gonna have to move out. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Not only that, if she brings it up that she
Speaker 1: talked on the toy, that she was on the toilet
Speaker 1: talking to her, she won't poo for another two weeks.
Speaker 1: I wonder if Sarah really has this conundrum. I'm sure
Speaker 1: Sarah's a nervous Do you think Sarah's a nervous poor?
Speaker 1: I believe Sarah's a nervous poor. I don't think like I.
Speaker 1: I feel like this is based on her character. My
Speaker 1: brother said the same thing. My brother was laughing, is
Speaker 1: this must be really be her? Yeah, I feel like
Speaker 1: Sarah's segment that would be great. Um, can we do that? Sarah? Sure?
Speaker 1: Are you really a nervous poor? Do you your character
Speaker 1: in this episode really really cannot talk even through the
Speaker 1: door if someone's asking them a question. She can't even
Speaker 1: talk about it. Like after days after at work, she
Speaker 1: can't talk about it. Sarah, the audience want to know
Speaker 1: all of the world. They want to know, do you
Speaker 1: have this problem with your anus? So? Am I a
Speaker 1: nervous poor? I think the answer is going to surprise
Speaker 1: you because it doesn't really go with my personality. And
Speaker 1: I think you're going to bet that I am a
Speaker 1: nervous poor. But I'm actually not a nervous poor. And
Speaker 1: I think that that comes from when I was a kid,
Speaker 1: we did a lot of camping, like not just car camping,
Speaker 1: but you know, hiking overnight in the woods camping. So
Speaker 1: I have like a very high comfort level with it
Speaker 1: also with talking about it, discussing it. Um, I would
Speaker 1: say I'm more of a grateful poor you know, just
Speaker 1: grateful that it's uh, everything's working out. Thank you Sarah,
Speaker 1: Thank you Sarah for talking about your bomb movement. We
Speaker 1: should go to break, Buddy's go to break. We'll be
Speaker 1: right back and we're back and we're back. What we
Speaker 1: laughed out loud when we were in the bouncy castle.
Speaker 1: My tummy is starting to rumble, speaking of nervous pooing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I take you to the carnival. We still go.
Speaker 1: I can't and it's just a bounty house. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: really really must have ran out of money by episode
Speaker 1: twenty of season four, when the Carnival was represented by
Speaker 1: a bouncy castle. Bill must that money elsewhere. We should
Speaker 1: talk about Can Jenkins and the Telco storyline and how
Speaker 1: great it was and how great he was. Yeah, and um,
Speaker 1: it's always so refreshing when Bill gives Ken more levels
Speaker 1: to play than just the grumpy boss, because he's such
Speaker 1: a good actor Ken that he just delivers. And you know,
Speaker 1: this was one of those episodes where he really got
Speaker 1: to do a lot with not only taking on a patient,
Speaker 1: but also his sort of old man camaraderie with Johnny c.
Speaker 1: You know, talking about how medicine used to be and
Speaker 1: how he was feeling how doctors and I imagine this
Speaker 1: came from real doctors saying, we feel disrespected in some
Speaker 1: ways now the advent of phones and the internet, everyone
Speaker 1: thinks they know more than us. And we used to
Speaker 1: we used to have a level of respect in society
Speaker 1: that we don't get from everybody these days anymore. Doctors
Speaker 1: also used to it used to be a job that
Speaker 1: was it was a it was like if you were
Speaker 1: a doctor, you were like, you know, you were a
Speaker 1: leader in the community. You know, you were there were
Speaker 1: so many things, and well think, yeah, there were so
Speaker 1: many great things about being a doctor, and I think
Speaker 1: you're still a leader in the community. And I do,
Speaker 1: I personally think you're still respected. But I'm sure they
Speaker 1: would say, we don't make anywhere the money we used
Speaker 1: to make, and we have to go to school for
Speaker 1: fucking eight years. You know. I would hope that people
Speaker 1: would look to doctors and and uh to be leaders
Speaker 1: in the community. I don't know that I would, you know,
Speaker 1: if my next door neighbor could be a doctor, I
Speaker 1: don't you know, I'm not going to handle but don't
Speaker 1: you when you when you come across someone who's a
Speaker 1: medical doctor, don't you. I have the unsugger amount of
Speaker 1: respect for them. I have the utmost respect for them.
Speaker 1: But a lot of it has to do with the
Speaker 1: fact that I played a doctor on television, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. A lot of it has to do
Speaker 1: with knowing what they go through and how stressful the
Speaker 1: job is. You know. But in our society, if someone's
Speaker 1: like if someone you meet someone and they're dating someone new,
Speaker 1: and you know, what does he do? What does he
Speaker 1: she do? They go, oh, she's a doctor. You're like, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, that's still a natural reaction, right, And then
Speaker 1: you find out that they ain't him making no money
Speaker 1: and you find out there you find out they're a chiropractor,
Speaker 1: and you're like, ooh, well you find out there. I'm
Speaker 1: just kidding. You find out they are dermatologists. That was
Speaker 1: so funny. That was very funny to me. I didn't
Speaker 1: even hit it, Daniel, Sure you didn't. It's got a
Speaker 1: mind of its own. That was very funny with the UH,
Speaker 1: with the UH with the dermatologists running down the hall
Speaker 1: mod get out of my way, get out, And then
Speaker 1: his diagnosis at the end was like, oh yeah, your
Speaker 1: skin looks bad. Yeah, yeah, that was really funny. And
Speaker 1: and then and then and then uh Cox says, you
Speaker 1: look like a purse. Yeah, because the guy was so
Speaker 1: sunburnt and fucked up his face with melanoma. That was
Speaker 1: that was very very Funum. Now, let's talk about the
Speaker 1: most important thing that happens in this episode of all time,
Speaker 1: the introduction of who. Well, it's not the introduction, but
Speaker 1: it's the it's the us finding out. This is the
Speaker 1: first time you say, which is crazy? Wait? I have
Speaker 1: a question which was in another episode, which is in
Speaker 1: an episode with Tom Hanks's brother that already happened. No,
Speaker 1: did it not happen yet? No? Okay, so yeah, I
Speaker 1: guess this is the introduce This is the introduction of Hooch.
Speaker 1: I know that to be a fact because I double
Speaker 1: check scrubs Wiki. Okay, well I'm gonna say this, then
Speaker 1: go ahead. Turk and j D egged hooch on. Turke
Speaker 1: and JD we crazy. No, I just made him crazy, No, sir,
Speaker 1: you can't make someone crazy like that. We we didn't
Speaker 1: know what we were messing with. We messed with the
Speaker 1: bull and we got the horns. Many episodes later, we
Speaker 1: late us assumed that he was sort of laughing along
Speaker 1: with us. He was not fucking coming. It's okay, j
Speaker 1: It's okay, JD. It's okay, JD. It's okay. It happens
Speaker 1: all the time. You could have said he here instead
Speaker 1: of hooch. Though, the best part about that is, I want,
Speaker 1: if you, I want the audience listening to go back
Speaker 1: and watch this moment where Phil Lewis, the fucking hilarious
Speaker 1: Phil Lewis, the comic. Did you see what he does
Speaker 1: on the on the counter. He does a little little
Speaker 1: double tap. He's so livid. Did you catch that? You Well,
Speaker 1: he's so livid. He's so livid, and he's holding all
Speaker 1: his fucking rage in and he comes when when when
Speaker 1: we said let's have some hooch or whatever we say,
Speaker 1: and he comes in. It's in the it's in the lobby,
Speaker 1: and he's through the through the little window to the
Speaker 1: hallway and he goes. It just feels like, I don't
Speaker 1: know where he does it, but he puts a little
Speaker 1: in the pause. He just feels like he could have
Speaker 1: said something else. It's just a little there's something about it.
Speaker 1: I find so funny. It's his rage is going through
Speaker 1: his whole body, and all he can do to hold
Speaker 1: it in is just a little counter tap, right, like
Speaker 1: it like it alleviates the rage just a little bit.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, yeah, he's tapping it down. It just lets
Speaker 1: a little bit of the rage come out through his fingers.
Speaker 1: But dude, Hooch is fucking keeping that rage in. And
Speaker 1: we think, oh, it's fun to mess with Hooch, but
Speaker 1: we don't know what's going to come out of it. Well,
Speaker 1: you say it's yourself after you get Elliott to do it,
Speaker 1: just say, but I only I'm still saying it in
Speaker 1: a joking way, dude, I'm still like crazy. That is
Speaker 1: the long game, Dude, that is the long game. Bill
Speaker 1: and the writers were playing the long game on this
Speaker 1: joke because the payoff doesn't come from many, many, many
Speaker 1: many episodes. Yeah, well you know what happens is is
Speaker 1: that And this is a lesson to you actors out there.
Speaker 1: You could come onto a show. I mean, Phil was
Speaker 1: ann actor, but you could come onto a show with
Speaker 1: two sentences and if you do something that's funny or great,
Speaker 1: people will start, the writers start to write for you.
Speaker 1: I mean, let's just have him back, Let's keep going
Speaker 1: and Phil obviously wasn't an unknown actor, but he was
Speaker 1: so fucking funny. Is this character that Bill just kept
Speaker 1: writing for him, kept putting him on. And then obviously,
Speaker 1: as you all know, he became a fan favorite. And
Speaker 1: and you know, which is crazy is something that gets
Speaker 1: said to me all the times a month. I'm sure.
Speaker 1: I'm sure when Phil meet people, I'm sure he's he's
Speaker 1: heard that before. Oh yeah, and and no running in
Speaker 1: my lobby apparently from from Zack and Cody, Sweet Life
Speaker 1: of Zack and Cody. I guess he was the hotel manager, Joel.
Speaker 1: He was, Yeah, he was. Yeah, I think he was
Speaker 1: a manager. If memory serious, it's been a minute, but yeah,
Speaker 1: he was definitely, Sam, Are you young enough to watch
Speaker 1: that show? Joel? I was like just above the age,
Speaker 1: but I was still watching a lot of Disney cartoons,
Speaker 1: so occasionally I would, you know, catch a clip or
Speaker 1: a moment that's like when Save by the Bell came out.
Speaker 1: I was a little too old to be watching Say
Speaker 1: by the Bell yourself watching some kids show. I don't
Speaker 1: think there's a show meant for young people that I
Speaker 1: that I watched into adulthood. Really well, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I can't think of one. I mean American Idol. I
Speaker 1: guess I watched sometimes that's that's not perfect. That's meant
Speaker 1: for everybody, that's for everybody. The janitors are drunk. Dude, Holy,
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's. Yeah, he is. There are
Speaker 1: a lot of jokes about him being a covert alcoholic. Wow,
Speaker 1: he's really drunk in this episode. Yeah, he didn't have
Speaker 1: much to do. He didn't even don't think he had
Speaker 1: much of even a laugh. He just had to be
Speaker 1: like drunk at work. Right. Well, he got he had
Speaker 1: to do voiceover. Yeah, that was weird too. So what
Speaker 1: happened was I tap him and he starts voice over,
Speaker 1: and I turned to my brother because I was reminding him.
Speaker 1: I go, oh, you know once a season I passed
Speaker 1: the voiceover around. This must be the janitor's episode, And
Speaker 1: then it wasn't. He just did all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: Bill sort of broke his own rules and gave the
Speaker 1: janitor like a few lines of voiceover right that scene
Speaker 1: and then the scene later when he's in the hallway
Speaker 1: with Kelso. It really bothered me that Kelso can't get
Speaker 1: the door open right, and you see clearly that he's
Speaker 1: not pushing the handle that would open the door, right,
Speaker 1: it's not even trying it. And then he adds a
Speaker 1: line like how did she lodge this door closed? And
Speaker 1: then we cut inside. There's clearly nothing blocking the door, right,
Speaker 1: and then and then he'd uses the screwdriver door. Well,
Speaker 1: then he uses the screwdriver, right, but I didn't even
Speaker 1: think the hinges are on the on the on that
Speaker 1: side of the door, right. So then later on the
Speaker 1: door has obviously been repaired, and and he busts it
Speaker 1: open like he's the Hulk again without a screw driver. Right.
Speaker 1: He just wanted to make an entrance. That was very fun.
Speaker 1: And then his speech at the end was, you know,
Speaker 1: to this day, it's one of the best lines. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna I don't want to butcher it. What does he say? Anything?
Speaker 1: Nothing worth having comes easy, right, which is the lesson
Speaker 1: of the show and very very useful advice to everybody
Speaker 1: on everything. Anything you want, it's not it's not going
Speaker 1: to come easy. I didn't know Google was around back then. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I remember, ask Jeeves, You remember that, yeah, asked Jeeves.
Speaker 1: She has like a she has an early smartphone, because
Speaker 1: you know, if you look at the show, all of
Speaker 1: us are really using flip phones still. She has sort
Speaker 1: of like a palm pilot. The character the Kelsel's dealing one,
Speaker 1: she has sort of a palm pilot. Yeah, I found Yeah,
Speaker 1: I found that very very I just didn't know that
Speaker 1: we had Google like that back then. I remember Yahoo,
Speaker 1: I remember, you know, I didn't know Google was I
Speaker 1: don't know, Joel, what un in nineteen ninety eight, September
Speaker 1: four when you did the iPhone come out? Two thousand
Speaker 1: and seven seven, So we're nowhere near the iPhone coming
Speaker 1: out yet. What were people using at this time? Well,
Speaker 1: we had flip phones and then and then and then
Speaker 1: the woman in this episode clearly has some Internet phone
Speaker 1: because she's she's using her little stylists. It must have
Speaker 1: been a pompilot, I'm guessing. But Wi Fi was around
Speaker 1: like that or she's on you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: like how much she I don't know how did pompilot work, Dane?
Speaker 1: They had, thank you very much. They had They could
Speaker 1: have received internet through like you know, either Wi Fi
Speaker 1: or but I'm pretty sure at this point everything was
Speaker 1: hardwired into the wall, right, like you had to eat
Speaker 1: their net. And we've had Wi Fi for a long time.
Speaker 1: We've had five for a long time. Oh, I just
Speaker 1: didn't get hip to it until after scrubs. I guess, well,
Speaker 1: you probably didn't have DSL. You maybe had a modem. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what you know. And I don't know. I don't
Speaker 1: know either, to be honest, which I just found this
Speaker 1: very interesting. I was like, wow, my my, my remembrance
Speaker 1: of technology is way off. Um who says a nurse
Speaker 1: Robert says she Google? Was it? She googled your ass? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Was that Nurse Robberts? You said that? Yeah? And then
Speaker 1: he goes, I'm not Nurse Roberts. I don't I'm not
Speaker 1: into your street lingo. Never heard of Google. No, that's
Speaker 1: neither did I. At this point, I'm sure of it.
Speaker 1: What about when Sarah when Judy speaking Spanish, and Sarah
Speaker 1: cracks up and she goes, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: She goes, no, I just know when to laugh in
Speaker 1: any language. We look good doing that cocktails thing. We
Speaker 1: looked good. My brother was like, you, what did you
Speaker 1: train for that? We did rehearse. I know we rehearsed,
Speaker 1: but why did we look so good? I don't know.
Speaker 1: We looked good? Yeah we did, Yeah, we did. We
Speaker 1: looked like we were having a blast. That looked like
Speaker 1: a fun party to Yeah. I wanted to get that party,
Speaker 1: so did I. At that moment in time, I was like, wow,
Speaker 1: look at all the ladies and look at JD. We
Speaker 1: were liking cocktail like that Tom Cruise movie. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: even did the spin with the bottle opener. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was fun. And then and then we were like, stay
Speaker 1: here and drink for Carla. So then I said, Turk
Speaker 1: has a hangoh even though I had a hangover that
Speaker 1: would slay a walrus. Oh man, um, Yeah, so you're
Speaker 1: so hungover that I think you've missed your lunch meeting
Speaker 1: with Carla, but you've actually slept through it on perfect.
Speaker 1: Turns out, he just didn't want to go. Yeah, why
Speaker 1: because he was having so much fun with j D.
Speaker 1: And he felt like it you know it all. You
Speaker 1: know when the fight gets when the fight gets real,
Speaker 1: are you somebody who's gonna dig in and punch back
Speaker 1: or are you gonna run? You know? And it seems
Speaker 1: like at this moment in time, Turk's a runner. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well I think he has some sort of drunken epiphany
Speaker 1: because he decides like, no, I'm not going to be
Speaker 1: the one that's like begging to get back anymore. I
Speaker 1: gotta get out of the fetal position. If you don't
Speaker 1: want to be in this, then you don't want to
Speaker 1: be in this. But it's not even being in the
Speaker 1: fetal position. He doesn't even want to try anymore. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna try. But then he does show
Speaker 1: up at the grave, but that's after, that's after Kelso's speech. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what's going on? You're right, Kelso? Kelso's advising the young
Speaker 1: lady about getting a gastrol bypass. And then that's funny
Speaker 1: when you when he means to be talking to her,
Speaker 1: and then you settle up right next to her and
Speaker 1: like what you forgot? What you say? Would you say
Speaker 1: something like go on right? Pretty much? And then he says,
Speaker 1: nothing worth having comes easy, whether it be taking on
Speaker 1: your weight, or taking on a relationship problem, or taking
Speaker 1: on your career goals, whatever it is. Um, if it's
Speaker 1: worth having, it's not gonna happen without work. That's right.
Speaker 1: It's all about the journey. It's all about the journey.
Speaker 1: Did you notice, Um, oh that's what you say. I
Speaker 1: wrote it down. You go, what if it's too hard. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what if it is too hard? Did you notice a
Speaker 1: little John Inwood directed this episode, who was our cinematographer
Speaker 1: for eight seasons of Scrubs, And I don't know if
Speaker 1: it was John or Carrie Bennett, our wardrobe designer, but
Speaker 1: there's an interesting thing they did with the wardrobe of
Speaker 1: you two at the grave. You're in you're in the
Speaker 1: exact same colors. I didn't recognize that your outfits aren't matching, obviously,
Speaker 1: but you're in the exact you're in the you're in.
Speaker 1: Your clothing items are the exact same shade, just like
Speaker 1: her shirt is your sweatshirt or something like that, to
Speaker 1: signify that you're meant to be together. Well, yeah, that
Speaker 1: they're that they're gonna be all right, That they're still
Speaker 1: unity in the two of them, whether they know it
Speaker 1: or not, they still have ay, they're still one, as
Speaker 1: you would. Didn't you think that was a creative choice
Speaker 1: to make. Even though they are separated, they are they
Speaker 1: are still one in little subtle things. The audience might
Speaker 1: not even notice it, but I happen to notice it.
Speaker 1: That's awesome. How about Sarah stuck in the grave? That
Speaker 1: was hilarious and she was stuck in the grave, and
Speaker 1: she was stuck in the grave all night. She's like, well,
Speaker 1: it can't get any worse, and then the thunder. Now.
Speaker 1: Someone said on scrubs Wiki that they thought that might
Speaker 1: be a reference to Young Frankenstein because apparently in Young
Speaker 1: Frankenstein there's a joke I'm gonna read it off Scrowski
Speaker 1: a possible reference to Young Frankenstein when Doctor Frankenstein and
Speaker 1: Igor are digging a grave and Eager says, could be worse,
Speaker 1: could be raining before? Yeah. Oh, when we say tokers,
Speaker 1: smokers and jokers, that's um er. Yes, I'm a smoke
Speaker 1: Steve millermant whoo whoo. Some people call me the Space Cowboy.
Speaker 1: Some call me the Gangster of Love. Some people call
Speaker 1: me Maurice. You know that song. Yeah, I'm a stoker.
Speaker 1: I'm a smoker, poker, I'm a midnight whatever, it's midnight tooker.
Speaker 1: I'm a joker, I'm a smoker. I'm a midnight toker
Speaker 1: playing my music in the sun right yep. If you
Speaker 1: don't know the joker, you gotta listen to it. It's
Speaker 1: a it's an old school jam. I was gonna say this,
Speaker 1: Uh it was. It's we jumped so far ahead. But
Speaker 1: in the beginning when the young lady is delusional because
Speaker 1: she's been worked for so long, Yeah, that was funny.
Speaker 1: And at the end of it, she has popcorn. Yeah
Speaker 1: did you laugh at that? I laughed? How does she
Speaker 1: have popcorn? Popcorn? That made me laugh? She's so delusible.
Speaker 1: She's like, I'd like two tickets too. I forgot what movie?
Speaker 1: Million dollar Baby, million dollars baby. The cafeteria crazy. The
Speaker 1: crazy thing about the hospitals is that they they work
Speaker 1: these poor people so hard and then they're meant to
Speaker 1: be like saving lives. She's like hallucinating. She hasn't slept
Speaker 1: in so long. She's at the cafeteria buying theater tickets,
Speaker 1: and then she's got a big tub of popcorn. Popcorn. Um, Joel,
Speaker 1: do we have a guest today? We do have a guest. Yes,
Speaker 1: they're here, all right. Why don't we take a break
Speaker 1: we come back. We have an interesting guest that Donald
Speaker 1: knows today, Sean McBee. Isn't that I want to also
Speaker 1: mention that next week we have the two directors of
Speaker 1: c Spiracy on, so you're gonna want to make sure
Speaker 1: that betwixt now and uh next Tuesday, you you watch

Speaker 1: when this show airs, you know, a day it is,
Speaker 1: what May the fourth be with you? Oh? Sho? So
Speaker 1: should we act like it's May the May the fourth
Speaker 1: and say happy May the fourth? So you Donald and Joel?
Speaker 1: I mean you could say it, but you know I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say it again on May the fourth. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: we're not going recording a podcast, I know, but I'm
Speaker 1: going to dedicate my Instagram. But what are you gonna
Speaker 1: do for May the fourth? Work? Yeah? Work? Yeah? Man,
Speaker 1: it's a freak. It's not a national holiday. Shit it
Speaker 1: it's just the nerds holiday. Yeah. But I'm saying, what
Speaker 1: are you gonna do to celebrate May fourth? And I'm
Speaker 1: probably gonna buy a lot of Star Wars ship dude,

Speaker 1: Wars stock. I have all of the books. I'll probably
Speaker 1: be doing some reading's just love it on Star Wars. Donald,
Speaker 1: did you see that Disneyland is reopened at partial capacity?
Speaker 1: I thought you'd be excited about that. I am excited
Speaker 1: about it. I you know, we're trying to figure that
Speaker 1: out now, Um Disneyland, you're gonna go? Are you going
Speaker 1: to be one of the people that is an early
Speaker 1: adopter of returning to theme parks? Yeah? Man, that's listen.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm vaccinated, um right, and my wife's vaccinated.
Speaker 1: And in California as as a matter of fact, across America,
Speaker 1: the CDC says you can walk outside without masks or
Speaker 1: on as long now, as long as you're not in
Speaker 1: a crowded place, and so if it's crowded, I've definitely
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure they have rules. I think it's
Speaker 1: required to wear a masking at all times. That's that's
Speaker 1: that's it is. And they're only at thirty percent capacity.
Speaker 1: That's foreseeable future. So that's cool. You must be excited
Speaker 1: to return now, are there? Star Wars rides that you
Speaker 1: haven't been on that might be newly open. I've been
Speaker 1: on everything the New Star Wars land yet and I'm
Speaker 1: in that in that area where they do that little
Speaker 1: show when the people come out and costume and they
Speaker 1: engage with the fans. Do you talk to them? Are
Speaker 1: you like Stormtrooper? I want to talk to you. That's
Speaker 1: the thing. The Stormtroopers come up to you, right and
Speaker 1: let the great that the awesome thing about about uh,
Speaker 1: what is it the what's the name of the Galaxy's
Speaker 1: Edge is that it is interact active and you choose
Speaker 1: a side when you get there. It's like you're either
Speaker 1: you're either a new Republic or or your first order.
Speaker 1: And if your new public, uh, there are people that
Speaker 1: interact with you. If your first Order, there are people
Speaker 1: that interact with you. Uh. And it's an adventure and
Speaker 1: you fly the Millennium Falcon and you go on this
Speaker 1: real dope ride that is really like the intertell that's
Speaker 1: happening over there, Like it's really good. I'm gonna say this.
Speaker 1: The ride itself is like Small World, but the but
Speaker 1: the the um it's like the interaction. Yeah, well, it's
Speaker 1: like you're sitting in a no, because look, it's it is.
Speaker 1: Small World is fucking awesome. Dude, you don't like Small World.
Speaker 1: I like it as a kid, like it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: we have to come and see Small World. But as
Speaker 1: an adult, I skipped Small World. I don't want to,
Speaker 1: not at all. I love I get on Small World
Speaker 1: every time. Look so, well, you have little kids. If
Speaker 1: I had little kids, I would, but I'm not. I
Speaker 1: go with adults. I'm not going on Small World. So
Speaker 1: it's a it's a you're literally being I don't want
Speaker 1: to give it away to the I almost want to
Speaker 1: pause this because, like I feel like we're about to
Speaker 1: enter a spoiler territory for this. Yeah, I don't want
Speaker 1: to give it away. You know that Rides had spoilers.
Speaker 1: This is one of those rods one this one has,
Speaker 1: you know this one has. It's like you're in a movie,
Speaker 1: dude that I haven't been to that one because it
Speaker 1: wasn't open when I went. But I went on the
Speaker 1: one where you feel like you're flying around and it
Speaker 1: really made me nauseous. Did you fly to Millennium Falcon? No, yes,
Speaker 1: I'm stars. You're talking star tours. What's the one that's
Speaker 1: basically you're watching a movie stars. You're talking start, we
Speaker 1: should didn't be done with we should be done with
Speaker 1: those kinds of rods, No, because they re they redid
Speaker 1: that when Also the Look Star Tours is fire. Also, um,
Speaker 1: but you fly to Millennium Falcon, dude, and you literally
Speaker 1: fly the Millennium Falcon and everybody has only one pets
Speaker 1: to no no, zach no, I was tasked with hitting
Speaker 1: buttons that didn't do anything. Yeah, you do if you
Speaker 1: can listen, man, if you listen, okay to higher you listen.
Speaker 1: If you get the if you I've gotten a couple
Speaker 1: of canisters of coaxium, right, and if you get the KAK,
Speaker 1: you go into the can'teema and they freaking give you love.
Speaker 1: They're like, y'all heard your U I heard your coaxium
Speaker 1: run was whatever whatever, And you're like yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: no doubt, no doubt. Oh my god, dude, it's amazing.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. You can build droids, you build lightsabers. On
Speaker 1: this video of this, they got a shop where they
Speaker 1: got a baby Sarlac in it. Man, there's a baby Sarlac,
Speaker 1: a baby Sarlac. I saw the girl who plays ray
Speaker 1: walking around and some guy was like trying to like
Speaker 1: flirt with her. It was so cringey. It was because
Speaker 1: this poor girl, like it's one thing to be in
Speaker 1: a storm Troop outfit, but she's, you know, dressed, is
Speaker 1: like the beautiful ray less. Guy's like trying to like
Speaker 1: talk her up, and she's like, I've got to be
Speaker 1: going back to my ship now. Some of the best
Speaker 1: motion control characters I've ever seen in my life in
Speaker 1: my ride I haven't been on because the one I
Speaker 1: was on I did not like. And it looks like
Speaker 1: it's a real thing. It looks like the star the
Speaker 1: bar is amazing too. The drinks design of the bar
Speaker 1: is beautiful. Yes, I mean so I was. I was
Speaker 1: lucky enough at one point to be in the Star
Speaker 1: Wars camp and then I blew it by, you know,
Speaker 1: being me and and rebelling against certain things. But I
Speaker 1: was in the Star Wars camp and I got to
Speaker 1: go behind the scenes and see all of this stuff
Speaker 1: before it was made, and it was one of the
Speaker 1: most amazing things I've ever been a part of in
Speaker 1: my life. I was one of the first I was
Speaker 1: one of the first people to ever fly the Millennium
Speaker 1: Falcon I'm gonna put it out there, that's dope. Um.
Speaker 1: When you walk into that world and you see the
Speaker 1: Lennium falcon, it looks cool. But for me it was
Speaker 1: kind of like, but that new ride wasn't open yet. Yes,
Speaker 1: what were you gonna say? Now? All I was gonna
Speaker 1: say about this is there's a podcast I listened to
Speaker 1: called podcast The Ride where they talk about these things,
Speaker 1: and a terminology that I learned from that podcast is
Speaker 1: called ride system. And a ride system is how you
Speaker 1: describe things like the chairs that you sit in. So,
Speaker 1: for example, if a ride has like a thing that
Speaker 1: you walk along, that is a ride system. If you
Speaker 1: think about like Haunted mansion where you sit in those
Speaker 1: little chairs, that is an individual ride system. A roller
Speaker 1: coaster where you strap yourself in, that is one ride system.
Speaker 1: This Star Wars ride is four separate ride systems in
Speaker 1: one ride, in one experience. So that is why I've
Speaker 1: been trying to spare myself the like the Spoiler experience.
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to. I don't
Speaker 1: want to tell you what happens. Don't listen. I was
Speaker 1: trying to do that that I now have to tell
Speaker 1: you what happened. I got to do it. No, no,
Speaker 1: I gotta do it. No, it's too late, you said you.
Speaker 1: I want to know I was trying to provide. I
Speaker 1: said it was small World. I was talking it down
Speaker 1: when I said it was small World, Bunny, I was
Speaker 1: trying to not I was not trying to make your
Speaker 1: expectations high. You're gonna enjoy this small World at all?
Speaker 1: Or is this the same thing over? No, it's a
Speaker 1: classic design by one of the most famous imagineers ever.
Speaker 1: Leave that alone. Oh man, it's not my favorite ride.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's really challenging to you sit there and
Speaker 1: with the same song over and over and over again.
Speaker 1: But it's but just from a design perspective and perspective,
Speaker 1: I think it's important, you know. I think I think
Speaker 1: if you skip out on Small World, you're skipping out
Speaker 1: on a great experience that has been around forever with
Speaker 1: Disneyland or Disney World. I'm just putting it out there,
Speaker 1: all right, there you go. Um, we are going to
Speaker 1: take a break and we come back. We have a
Speaker 1: very interesting guess. We'll be right back and we're bad.
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here in a wet bathing suit and I
Speaker 1: mean thinking the whole time about taking it off. Don't wow?
Speaker 1: Please know no, I mean I wouldn't show my jump
Speaker 1: you guys. Let's bring him the guests. Let's let's all
Speaker 1: the guests. Should we have the guest opine? If they
Speaker 1: think I should take off my wet suit, sure we
Speaker 1: can ask Sean. He's gonna tell you to take it
Speaker 1: off though, but okay, okay, well, and Sean will decide.
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, people of all walks
Speaker 1: of life, please welcome Sean mccad Hey, guys, Sean program,
Speaker 1: how's everybody doing? How are you doing? Why does it
Speaker 1: look like you have a more professional audio recording studio
Speaker 1: than we do? And we have a successful podcast. I
Speaker 1: have two unsuccessful podcasts that way too much money into. Dude,
Speaker 1: your setup looks amazing, Daniel, can you take a screenshot?
Speaker 1: You can eat all of that shit he has. We'll
Speaker 1: get we'll get it. Get that right over. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: what podcasts do you do? Yes? Plug your podcast right
Speaker 1: off the bat, Sean, All right, right off the bat.
Speaker 1: I've got one called table Reads, where me and two
Speaker 1: guys funnier than me read scripts that never got made
Speaker 1: and sort of riff on them, and it's it's not like, uh,
Speaker 1: aspirational scripts. It's like big budget money grab things like
Speaker 1: Josh Whedon's Wonder Woman script. Yeah, we read the scripts
Speaker 1: and we we point out what's what's terrible about them?
Speaker 1: What about Tim Burton? Did you ever do Tim Burton's Superman?
Speaker 1: It's on the list? Can you find How do you
Speaker 1: get these scripts? How do you? Oh, there's places all
Speaker 1: over the internet, and you know, I work in the
Speaker 1: film industry, so sometimes I get a little little side
Speaker 1: hook up the Yeah, that is awesome. My brother once
Speaker 1: got when when Matrix was first came out. It was
Speaker 1: his favorite movie, and someone hooked him up with Matrix dailies.
Speaker 1: Wow Wow, which for those you don't know, is is
Speaker 1: is the raw footage's just like not edited together. It's
Speaker 1: just like Keanu Reeves doing take after take of of
Speaker 1: like waking Up. And I remember what I came him
Speaker 1: one day and my brother was just sitting there watching
Speaker 1: Matrix daily because he loved the movie so much. He
Speaker 1: just wanted to he wanted more. I would watch, he
Speaker 1: would watch Star wars Dale. He's don't all of the
Speaker 1: cut scenes everything, Sean, what's what else? Is going. What else?
Speaker 1: What's your other podcast? Oh, I do a podcast about
Speaker 1: stargirls called star Girl After show nice and I worked
Speaker 1: on that one, so I figured, you know, I'm friends
Speaker 1: with most of the cast, so I may as well
Speaker 1: use that. You know, who was on Star Girl Zach
Speaker 1: a young lady by the name of Amy Smart. Oh
Speaker 1: really you might know her listener as a tasty come
Speaker 1: a wife. She is her show, She's on the c W.

Speaker 1: So there's you know, I don't, I don't. I don't

Speaker 1: Who was star was a star Man originally? Is that
Speaker 1: who it was? Yeah? John McHale, Joe mccale. Oh wait, yep,

Speaker 1: he plays It's a dynamite star Girl, a young actress
Speaker 1: named Breck Passenger. Super amazing. They do shoot in Atlanta.
Speaker 1: They shouted right across this from the stage where we
Speaker 1: shot Powerpuff Sean, I'm assuming that you are Atlanta based, right, Yes?
Speaker 1: I am? And and how did you now? Are you
Speaker 1: a prop master? No? I'm graphic designer. Okay, so what
Speaker 1: do you? What did you? How did you? And Donald?
Speaker 1: Me tell everyone the backstory because I only know that
Speaker 1: you gave us this incredible present that we want to
Speaker 1: talk about, But I don't know how you guys work
Speaker 1: together and what came about. That's how we met. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but how how did you? How did you? Were you
Speaker 1: working on Powerpuff Girls? Yeah, he's working on He's working
Speaker 1: on power Let him tell it. Donald's so, yeah, I
Speaker 1: was lucky enough to work on power Puff And I
Speaker 1: was like the first person on the crew, like down
Speaker 1: below everybody that found out that Donald was going to
Speaker 1: be on the show, because I was helping put together
Speaker 1: the presentation for the network and they're like, hey, you
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta add a picture of Donald faz On
Speaker 1: to the professor Paige, and I was like, oh what okay?
Speaker 1: And so, uh, you know, I I had in COVID.
Speaker 1: I'd sort of fallen behind on this podcast, and so
Speaker 1: Donald's coming on the show and I'm like, all right,
Speaker 1: I gotta caught up on this, and I'm listening one
Speaker 1: day on my way to work and I hear Donald
Speaker 1: talking about how much he loves a care package, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I'll put together a care package. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, and the care package turned out to be one.
Speaker 1: So we gotta we gotta get into this because you
Speaker 1: said to me that the key and the button are
Speaker 1: actually functional. No, wait, before you get you're going too fast.
Speaker 1: We need to remind some people where this started. Donald
Speaker 1: and I on one of these episodes talked about our
Speaker 1: love of the film War Games, Yes and which is
Speaker 1: just that I remember to the amazing movie. I haven't
Speaker 1: seen it in a very long time, but one of
Speaker 1: the things that always stuck with me was the opening
Speaker 1: of the film, which is a bit of a prologue
Speaker 1: where two men who are the people in the nuclear
Speaker 1: silo that are when they get the message from the
Speaker 1: President to launch the nuclear rocket missile, both have to
Speaker 1: turn their keys and one of them turns it and
Speaker 1: the other guys like panicking, like before I kill X
Speaker 1: amount of million people, I want to I want to
Speaker 1: get someone on the fun's I mean, he's not doing
Speaker 1: what you're supposed to do. He's not following the protocol
Speaker 1: because he doesn't want to launch the weapon, and the
Speaker 1: other guy pulls out his firearm and he says, turn
Speaker 1: your key, sir, turn your key, turn your key, sir, yes,
Speaker 1: And it's a really powerful opening. You learn later that
Speaker 1: it was a drill to see if human beings could
Speaker 1: pass the test to launch a weapon that would kill
Speaker 1: millions and millions of people, and he they obviously failed,
Speaker 1: and they decided to put make it computerized, which is
Speaker 1: the beginning of the movie. So on our show when
Speaker 1: we jokingly say when we want to like what is
Speaker 1: it for thunderous applause? Or what is it for anything?
Speaker 1: Where it's like I want you to turn your key,
Speaker 1: turn your keys ac right, turn your key, sir, yes,
Speaker 1: and so sure mechanism that looks like, Okay, I didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't make them. You're giving me too much credit there.
Speaker 1: But I was like, I bet something like that exists
Speaker 1: out there, and I did some searching and I found something,
Speaker 1: and uh so I got you these big red buttons
Speaker 1: that unlocked with a key and put turn your key
Speaker 1: on there. I left off the sir because I didn't
Speaker 1: want to leave Joel out. Oh God, you're a thoughtful man.
Speaker 1: First of all, I love that you're spending money on
Speaker 1: Donald with a care package. Is very thoughtful of you, dude.
Speaker 1: There was a lightsaber in there. There was also a lightsaber, Sean,
Speaker 1: where did you get the lightsaber? Lightsaber that was handed
Speaker 1: down from his father which he then gave to Ray
Speaker 1: was in the care package. So that was that was
Speaker 1: a lightsaber that um I had for a number of years.
Speaker 1: And then I got my hands on a real graflex
Speaker 1: uh flash tube you can see behind me right there, yea,
Speaker 1: and made like a super super legit one for myself.
Speaker 1: And so then, uh, I just I had this spare
Speaker 1: lightsaber for quite a while and I never found another man.
Speaker 1: It's not fash though. I was saving it to give
Speaker 1: it to someone special. So why are I mean? You
Speaker 1: seem like a very nice human being? Is you? Are you?
Speaker 1: Are you? Are you like this to lots of people
Speaker 1: in your life? Or just are you a Donald phaz
Speaker 1: and mega fan? It's it's not just Donald phase on,
Speaker 1: It's it's both of you, guys. Like I've watched Scrubs
Speaker 1: so many times. The show's given me so much joy
Speaker 1: over the years, um And here's an example. I was
Speaker 1: you know, getting ready for yet another rewatch. When I
Speaker 1: heard about this podcast launching, and so I started watching
Speaker 1: along with you guys. But by the time you got
Speaker 1: to episode five, I was finished the whole thing. Wow. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just can't. We can get you the audience so
Speaker 1: you can't see. Sean has a beautiful glass case behind him.
Speaker 1: It looks like some treasured props from different films and
Speaker 1: TV shows? Am I right? Sean? Yeah? Mostly replicas? Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: I feel like we willed to get him something donald
Speaker 1: for his case. I agree. Man, Well, you know I'm
Speaker 1: trying to get back into Lucas Film. If I could
Speaker 1: get something from them, I would send it your way. Uh,
Speaker 1: if the show gets picked up. If the show gets
Speaker 1: picked up, you'll have all the swag you need from
Speaker 1: that end of things. I'll sign whatever you want me
Speaker 1: to sign. I know, we gotta get him something worthy
Speaker 1: of his dope class case though. Yeah, I agree. Where
Speaker 1: do you look for replicas, Sean? I mean, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: knows on the internet in eBay? Right? Is that where
Speaker 1: you find stuff? Yeah? I mean I've been parts of
Speaker 1: online groups that are just dedicated to this super nerdery
Speaker 1: um and I make a fair amount of them myself. Um, like,
Speaker 1: here is that the is that the sculpture from Batman
Speaker 1: the TV show that behind you? Yes? It is? Oh
Speaker 1: my god, aren't you impressed on? Like? Does it have
Speaker 1: a button when you lift up the head? It does?
Speaker 1: Oh my god? Is it Shakespeare? It is? It is
Speaker 1: pressed out. I got all three of those, I mean
Speaker 1: pressed well done. Pulled that out working puppet from of
Speaker 1: Tom Servo from Mystery Science Theater three thousand. That is dope.
Speaker 1: It's agreement. Yeah, lights up in every lanterning. Oh he
Speaker 1: doesn't light up. There's a green lantern lit right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: green lantern, green lantern, power battery. Wow. No Joe Jojo
Speaker 1: helmet that I made designed myself. What's Mojo Jojo from
Speaker 1: Power Girls? So u? Mojo Jojo is the bad guy
Speaker 1: from Power Okay, no spoilers, guys, no spoilers, But I
Speaker 1: better fucking pick up this show. I'm gonna call Berlani
Speaker 1: right now. It call him, call him listen. It seems
Speaker 1: unlikely that it would, up right, Sean, Let's not go
Speaker 1: on something that's wooden. Well, Sean is very dialed in,
Speaker 1: it seems to me to the to the Greg Berlany
Speaker 1: Atlanta Universe. Are you Sean Well? I mean, I've worked
Speaker 1: on two BERLANDI shows. Now, do you feel did you
Speaker 1: feel a good vibe on this show that it had
Speaker 1: a shot? Because I do, And I'm just saying that
Speaker 1: because I love Donald, but I feel like it was
Speaker 1: a good vibe. Yeah, I mean I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: think that people really say no to Greg Berlany. And
Speaker 1: we have an Academy Award winning screenwriter as our writer
Speaker 1: and showrunner. Yeah. Greg Blaney's kind of like the Spielberg
Speaker 1: of CW. He's like, you know, no, it's more than
Speaker 1: a CW. Man, It's more than a CW. I'm not
Speaker 1: minimizing it by CW, but he is. He has a
Speaker 1: show on every network pretty much, maybe not ABC right now,
Speaker 1: but there's he has something somewhere somehow. I wonder it's
Speaker 1: if it's his Northwestern education. You know, they say Northwestern
Speaker 1: is the Harvard of the Midwest. They do, and I'm
Speaker 1: not just the only one who says that. I bet you.
Speaker 1: Greg Borlany says that himself, I worked one of the
Speaker 1: first student films I ever worked on was written by
Speaker 1: Greg Berlaney at Northwestern. One of the first movies You
Speaker 1: were Ever You Ever starred in was directed and written
Speaker 1: by Greg Berlante as well. And we had the same
Speaker 1: acting teacher named David Downs. And Um, he came on
Speaker 1: the show, didn't he. Yes, And he's had spoken of
Speaker 1: him because in the Wizard of Oz episode he's the
Speaker 1: man that is losing whose son is ill. Right. Yes,
Speaker 1: you have a great scene with him. Yes, that was
Speaker 1: really awesome too. That that's your six degrees of Greg
Speaker 1: Brolanty for you. Well, I mean it's it's not very hard.
Speaker 1: He's everywhere. Yea. What do you think his most successful
Speaker 1: popular show is on on c W ver Riverdale? Is
Speaker 1: that his Lash the Flash Flash Slash Flash or Arrow? Um?
Speaker 1: He also had like the Green Lanterns coming out. That's
Speaker 1: the next one. I think that's on HBO Max. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's got a bunch of shows on HBO Max actually,
Speaker 1: from Titans to Doom Patrol to now the Green Lantern Show.
Speaker 1: Like Greg is I'm sorry, mister Berlante is really think Um, Sean,
Speaker 1: did you um, did you always work in film or
Speaker 1: or what? How did what's your how did you get
Speaker 1: into the business. I'm sure people who like graphic design
Speaker 1: and uh, who might want to do what you do?
Speaker 1: How do you? How did you do it? So? Uh,
Speaker 1: I sort of stumbled and fell into it. Um, my
Speaker 1: wife had gone to art school in Atlanta and we
Speaker 1: lived in Florida. She wanted to move here, and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I've been into replicating props and stuff forever.
Speaker 1: And this show Constantine came out on NBC show Yeah,
Speaker 1: and uh there was this weird like art deco record
Speaker 1: on it that played the devil's voice, and I redesigned
Speaker 1: the recreated the you know art for it. And then
Speaker 1: I actually like had it pressed into a or that
Speaker 1: played the sounds and everything, and I put it on
Speaker 1: Twitter and I tagged the production designer for the show
Speaker 1: and he liked it. We got talking on Twitter. When
Speaker 1: my wife and I came up for a four day
Speaker 1: trip to Atlanta to look at neighborhoods to maybe move to.
Speaker 1: He said, we'll stop by the studio. He had just
Speaker 1: lost his graphic designer and he hired me on the spot. WHOA,
Speaker 1: but you made that happen. I mean that's the lesson
Speaker 1: is that you were like proactive. You tagged him on Twitter?
Speaker 1: You you you you worked for it, didn't just happen
Speaker 1: to you. Yeah, and I, you know, it was something
Speaker 1: that I loved doing that I just did and I
Speaker 1: put it out there in the world, and I whiteboarded
Speaker 1: that before I knew what a what white boarding was. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well you made it happen man, And and and so
Speaker 1: tell people who might not know, like the different tasks
Speaker 1: that a graphic designer has on a show, because you've
Speaker 1: already mentioned things as as varied as making a you know,
Speaker 1: just a promotional thing that included Donald's picture, to redesigning
Speaker 1: a prop. Like, what are the different things a graphic
Speaker 1: designer does on a show. So a graphic designer tends
Speaker 1: to do anything that has graphics that actually goes in
Speaker 1: front of a camera. So it's not like on screen
Speaker 1: graphics like like VFX or anything like that. It's signage.
Speaker 1: It's if someone has a graphic t shirt on hatches
Speaker 1: for the police, police cars, any kind of props, any
Speaker 1: prop that needs to be bespoke for the show, and
Speaker 1: even plenty not right because if you can't show Coca Cola,
Speaker 1: you have to make sort of a Coca Cola like
Speaker 1: label that isn't too close. You have to know what
Speaker 1: you're allowed to do right because you can't go too
Speaker 1: close to the actual product exactly. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: like knowing what you can get away with through legal
Speaker 1: with that stuff with fake products, not making them the
Speaker 1: same color scheme is what they're trying to evoke. Newspapers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff. Um, well, you're one of these.
Speaker 1: Sounds like you're one of those people who's lucky enough
Speaker 1: to be doing something and making a living and something
Speaker 1: you genuinely love doing. Oh dude, I've wanted to be
Speaker 1: involved in the movie since I saw et in the
Speaker 1: theater when I was three. Now sean, Um, we usually
Speaker 1: do questions, but I think with you do do you do? You? You?
Speaker 1: You kind of a VIP guest because you you know,
Speaker 1: you gave us this amazing present. Do you want to
Speaker 1: have a question? I want to ask question? Why do
Speaker 1: you have a question? Do you want us to fix
Speaker 1: your life? How can we be of service to you
Speaker 1: for giving us this beautiful present? Um, you know, just
Speaker 1: just being here and giving me twenty years of scrubs
Speaker 1: watching is is great. And I have to be honest, Um,
Speaker 1: for the fixer life thing, I was having trouble thinking
Speaker 1: of any way that you could fix my life because honestly,
Speaker 1: my life is just real great. I'm real happy. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, you know what I'm gonna hit? Sorry Donald
Speaker 1: did I did not turn my key, but I will
Speaker 1: turn Then we have the prop all right, so we
Speaker 1: don't need to wait wait wait, that actually is something
Speaker 1: that you can do that would help keep my life fixed. Okay, okay.
Speaker 1: So you may be aware that here in Georgia we
Speaker 1: have a shit heel of a governor who keeps signing
Speaker 1: bullshit laws. Yeah. Uh, and what ends up happening is
Speaker 1: a bunch of people in Hollywood start saying, well, we
Speaker 1: shouldn't film in Georgia anymore, and you know it doesn't
Speaker 1: help us. If the film industry leaves Georgia, then you're
Speaker 1: just taking a whole bunch of Blue voters out of
Speaker 1: the state. Right after we just flipped the presidency, we
Speaker 1: just put two Democrats in our Senate. You know, we're
Speaker 1: on the cusp of like really changing Georgia into a
Speaker 1: good place. And the governor doing all this only got
Speaker 1: there because he cheated. So how do you so? So
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying, but what is the Obviously
Speaker 1: there's people I know Will Smith was one of them
Speaker 1: who moved his film to Louisiana. What do you say
Speaker 1: to people that are are upset with with what he's
Speaker 1: trying to do? Um and and and and don't want to.
Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying. He's like, don't, don't, don't
Speaker 1: take the work away. That's not You're going to affect
Speaker 1: people that are probably on your side, and you're gonna
Speaker 1: put a lot of people out of work. It's not
Speaker 1: their fault. But when you're the Will Smiths and of
Speaker 1: the world, or people who have actually power to move productions,
Speaker 1: what do you say to them? Well, I just say,
Speaker 1: look at what Ryan Coogler said and what Jordan Peel said.
Speaker 1: They said, you stay and fight, you change it. We
Speaker 1: have Stacy Abrams almost certainly running for governor again next year,
Speaker 1: and she has been pushing U Sign Up initiative for
Speaker 1: the last four years. She gotten, she's gonna get nominated
Speaker 1: for the Nobel Peace Prize. She's she's been largely credited
Speaker 1: with putting Georgia in the Biden column just with her
Speaker 1: own efforts. And she's gonna keep fighting that fight, and
Speaker 1: then she's gonna run for governor and we're gonna get
Speaker 1: rid of this guy, and George is gonna stop passing
Speaker 1: these stupid laws and everybody can be happy here. But
Speaker 1: it can't happen if film just shuts down and takes
Speaker 1: everybody that you know came here from LA that's like
Speaker 1: minded away. What's I have a question and you might
Speaker 1: know the answer to or if you don't, danil will,
Speaker 1: what's the thinking behind you're not allowed to bring someone
Speaker 1: water as they wait online to vote. Oh, it's just
Speaker 1: straight evil. Yeah, I mean what is the governor? What's
Speaker 1: the governor's logic? The governor's logic is that it's encouraging
Speaker 1: people to vote a certain way. Literally, he never gave
Speaker 1: like a specific reason like they're at least in my
Speaker 1: like readings, there's never been like a well we don't
Speaker 1: want to like back up the line, or you know,
Speaker 1: we don't know what's in that water you're giving Like
Speaker 1: didn't even try to bullshit it. They're just like, you
Speaker 1: just can't do that. Part of the law. Part of
Speaker 1: the law is that the state can determine how many
Speaker 1: polling places locality has and how much early voting they
Speaker 1: have to put them all on an even keel, so
Speaker 1: that a county with five thousand people can have the
Speaker 1: same amount of voting resources as Fulton County with ten
Speaker 1: million people or whatever there are here, And so that
Speaker 1: creates these giant, super long lines in areas where it's
Speaker 1: primarily people of color or other likely Democratic voters, and
Speaker 1: they have to be in line for eight hours, and
Speaker 1: you can bring them food and water, then they might stay,
Speaker 1: They might stay. Really is as simple as that really is,
Speaker 1: as simple as like, we don't want to encourage them
Speaker 1: to stay in line. Yeah, I just think it's crazy.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this as a politically as possible, because
Speaker 1: I really just think it's insane to say that any
Speaker 1: human being in this country who can vote has to
Speaker 1: wait eight hours to vote. It's just so bizarre that
Speaker 1: that's an accepted thing. And and I understand how frustrated
Speaker 1: you would be in in in Georgia, because you'd be like,
Speaker 1: why do certain neighborhoods have no weight and our neighborhood
Speaker 1: has a fucking nine hour weight? Doesn't making sense? And
Speaker 1: so you would say, we would say all politics aside,
Speaker 1: let's add more polling places, let's add more drop boxes.
Speaker 1: Why is that even a debate? No one should have
Speaker 1: to wait that long to vote, because then the people
Speaker 1: that want to, the people that have been cheating to
Speaker 1: get into office for the longest, can't get into office.
Speaker 1: I know. That's so fu sinister. Any politics of that,
Speaker 1: sinister is that if you do decide to give somebody
Speaker 1: water in line, you could go to jail for a year, right,
Speaker 1: a full year. Yeah, that does not seem like a
Speaker 1: good man. All right, so we're man fix your life
Speaker 1: by not taking our productions out of it. I would
Speaker 1: I would be so so grateful if you guys could
Speaker 1: just use your voices and say, you know, stay in
Speaker 1: Georgia and fight. Well, Donald did and wherever Ryan Coogler does.
Speaker 1: Donald wants to do that as well, because Donald is
Speaker 1: going to be in Black Panther one day. Listen, Sean.
Speaker 1: I have to admit, when I heard about this, I
Speaker 1: had the same reaction. Not that I was about to
Speaker 1: make something in Georgia, but I thought to myself, Oh,
Speaker 1: Hollywood's going to pull out of this state, because that's
Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. Um. And then I saw people like Ryan
Speaker 1: Coogler and and and others Stacy Abrams saying no, please, look,
Speaker 1: we're making such progress, don't abandon us. You know, yeah,
Speaker 1: because that's what it is, That's what it turns into. Um,
Speaker 1: you know Smith didn't get your message. Donald, Why don't
Speaker 1: you call Will Smith and tell him to change his
Speaker 1: Moneyte that down down, Paul Will Smith? Um, Sean, I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry if I made that too political. It's just
Speaker 1: it's real important to me, and I actually don't I
Speaker 1: don't even think it needs Everyone will interpret it as political,
Speaker 1: as a democratic republican thing. But I just find it
Speaker 1: so baffling when you come at it from an innocent
Speaker 1: point of view. If you just put yourself in a
Speaker 1: I don't know anything about politics place and go, why
Speaker 1: do some neighborhoods have more polling places per capita than others?
Speaker 1: Why do you why? Why are you there's an eight
Speaker 1: hour wait? Why are you taking more away? It just
Speaker 1: doesn't make any logical sense at all. You're right, and
Speaker 1: then you go and then you go, wait, wait, wait,
Speaker 1: I got an extra something. When people are bringing them
Speaker 1: water and food, let's put them into that's encouraging them
Speaker 1: to stay. Let's make it illegal. Let's make it illegal
Speaker 1: to bring them water. That's some crazy twenty twenty one shit,
Speaker 1: right there. Um, all right, Well, how do we end
Speaker 1: on a happy note? Guys, Donald say something funny? Uh
Speaker 1: ass shit ass good night and do do it? Um me, Sean,
Speaker 1: are you gonna watch um Percy Verse Goliath, my new
