Hello, Daniel.
Hello, Joelle.

These are olives with garlic in them.
Why would you bring those to our meeting?
Because it goes so good with this.
What is that?
This is a bourbon.
Oh, nice.
What are you sipping?
Is that champagne?
Well, we're out of wine glasses, and I wanted to have a little sans serre with you today,
so I poured it into a champagne flute.
I don't want you to think I'm drinking champagne.
I'm not, Donald.
Well, this is a scotch glass, and I don't want you to think I'm drinking orange juice or something like that.
This is actually scotch.
Yes, I see you. I see you. How are how are you how's it going the hair is looking good the hair is feeling good too man you are
looking good you're looking all shaggy and everything the head's looking all shaggy

that well not episode one.
Episode four, I should say.
Episode four.
I shaved.
My hair is long.
My hair is long, but I'm freshly shaved and excited to see you guys.
It's always nice to check in with our friend group here and everyone listening.
It's nice.
I feel excited to be talking to all these fine people who are listening.
Someone told me on one of the social media
that we've actually helped them lose weight
because they are listening to the podcast
as they jog or power walk, whatever they're doing,
and that as they go longer,
they're increasing the distance they're going.
And they said, like, I wanted to thank you guys
because it gave me motivation.
I read that too.
That was pretty cool. It made me feel good, man. I wanted to thank you guys because it gave me motivation. I've read that, too. I've read that, too. That was pretty cool.
It made me feel good, man.
I don't know about you.
But if we're entertaining you while you're working out right now, that makes me so happy.
I don't know about Daniel and Joelle, how that makes you guys feel.
But for me, that's like one of those things, like, if I can distract you to the point where you don't feel the pain anymore.
Hell, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a great feeling. You know, yeah. It's a great feeling.
You know, I think it's a great feeling.
And if you haven't done that yet, you know,
you can take your dog on a walk with us.
We're willing to go with you.
Take us anywhere you go.
You can take us in the pool if you got the right headphones.
Yes, that's true.
Don't electrocute yourself on our behalf.
But yeah, I mean, no, it's nice.
It was in all seriousness. It was nice to hear that we were sort of indirectly aspiring
someone to take care of themselves and do some cardio.
I felt happy about that.
Made me feel good too.
It was also nice to see the love that Shay got on the show last week.
Everybody loves Shay.
How do you not love Shay?
And he's just so smart and humble and kind. And I want to be real friends with Shay. How do you not love Shay? And he's just so smart and humble and kind.
And I want to be real friends with Shay.
I would love to be real friends with Shay.
When the pandemic's over, I would like to hang out with Shay.
Maybe go to a restaurant, have a meal.
It's hard to make new guy friends when you're our age, right?
You just kind of have your friends.
But I feel like Daniel and Joelle are our new friends.
I didn't mean to specifically say guys,
but I mean, you know, like I run across someone like Shay
and I think, you know,
I would be real friends with this person.
But what do you do?
You go on like a man date?
Like, hey, let's go on a man date and get a drink.
Yeah, but I don't know if it'd have to be called a man date.
It just could be called a date.
Let's go out.
Let's go and do something.
I know, but don't you think it's a little weird to be like, hey, man, do you want to go on a man date?
If you came, it wouldn't be weird.
Then it'd be a threesome man date.
And then we're talking.
And then we're talking.
Yeah, then she could go down.
Yeah, then it could happen.
I love it.
Oh, by the way, I meant to tell you that Florence's mother was kind enough to record her admonishing us for talking about our willies.
And I've sent it to Dan.
And any time that we saunter into talking about our penises too much, you will hear something like
the following, which Dan will
now play. For fuck's sake,
just stop talking about your willies.
Well, we got a problem because
this episode, we talked, there's a lot of
there's a lot of sex in this episode.
And usually when you talk about
sex, the first thing you talk about
at least me, is
how my willy feels after
or during or before
sex. Why is there a lot of sex?
Isn't this my karma that we watched?
Yeah, but there's a baby being born.
Oh, okay. Well, that's not sexual.
A baby being born's not sexual.
Elliot and Nurse Flowers
do the do finally
and we find out...
You know what? How about this? out, you know what, let's, how about this, five,
six, seven, eight.
I said stories about a show we made, about a bunch of docs and nurses and a janitor who
loved to hate.
I said here's a story that we all should know.
So gather round to hear our, gather round to hear our Gather round to hear our
Scrubs Rewatch Show with Zach and Donald
You wanna just, uh, let's get this out of the way right away.
I wanna get this, this...
Okay. You feel like, you feel like you're sort of revved up.
You feel like you, I feel like you, you came, you came to work today prepared.
You got a little pep in your step and you wanna do this summary.
I wanna do it now! Alright, well let daddy get out his timer get
that timer daddy oh shit that's the weirdest erection I've ever had for fuck
sake no enough it's enough sorry Deb sorry Deb you ready yes and go Karma's a bitch Sorry, Deb. What's happening? You ready? Yes. And go.
Karma's a bitch.
Ta-da!
That's it?
That is it.
You just didn't fucking do your homework.
Why don't you be honest?
I did do my homework.
It's just that there's nothing really to this.
This episode, I don't know, man. This episode, the only thing that really is depth that we talk about in this episode
is how karma is a bitch how it comes around and bites you in the ass like a dog would you know
what I mean Turk JD Cox Jordan and Kelso all learned this lesson in the episode you know and
that's really all there is to it even in the summary at the end of the episode it's pretty
much that you have something you know what when I when i was a child my father would rate us how well we'd
eaten off our dinner plate and he'd go and when he was mad and grumpy he'd go that's an f job
that is an f job and i i think i want to say to you right now donald that is an F job. Well, you know what? I take that. That's an honor for me because
it's something that your dad used to say to you guys, and you know how much I love your dad. So,
bam. Yesterday was his birthday. Oh, man. How are you?
I'm sorry. I'm about to say for those of you who don't know, but why would you know? Although I
have spoken about my father dying. My father has passed away, but of course, anyone who's lost a parent, you sometimes look down at the calendar and go, oh, my God, it's his birthday.
And in fact, my calendar, he's still in my iCal thing, which puts up a reminder.
And it came up yesterday.
It was like, it's dad's birthday.
And, you know, I don't know what to say other than it stings a little. He would love this.
This would be his favorite thing in the world. My father was my biggest champion. And as you
can imagine, he loved Donald Faison like the fourth son he never had. And he would love this.
He would love more than anything us sitting around talking about scrubs because he's such he's such my champion he loved scrubs more than more than anyone i remember that uh one of the last times i
saw your dad uh we were in mexico and he he uh i sat down next to him he said okay tell me everything
i just want to know tell me what are you doing tell me everything yeah he was so my father you
know some people were like most people in our lives i find
just they go hey how's it going they don't really want a long answer they just want oh good good how
are you my father wanted the genuine long answer he would he would go okay donald um i saw you a
year ago at zach's birthday tell me everything that's happened since
and he would he would genuinely want to hear it.
He was so genuinely interested in people, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
I love that quality about him.
Yeah.
He loved you, man.
I loved him.
He loved coming to the set and everything I ever did, he came to.
When I did the Broadway show, he came like 11 times.
He loved me.
I remember when you got nominated for the emmy for the first year
and we did that uh thing in the bathroom where we were pretending to rob tony shalhoub of his emmy
and your dad played the bathroom attendant and we shot it at scrubs right before you went to the
ceremony because i guess we knew that the chances of you winning aren't
going to be big. The chances of Tony Saloub... You can't beat
Saloub. You can't beat Saloub.
Are you crazy? You think
you're going to beat Saloub? It was either him.
It was something like that. We either robbed
him or it was Hugh Laurie or something
like that. And we took his cane
or some shit like that. And then we ran out
of the bathroom. I just remember...
I remember... If anyone out there has that thing,
I'm sure it's on YouTube somewhere.
Your dad played the bathroom attendant in that episode.
And I feel like that was one of the first times,
that's one of my first memories of your dad, actually.
I put my dad in Garden State and I gave him a long monologue
and he kept messing it up.
And I felt so bad
because he was so,
you know,
like,
my dad was a,
used to do
community theater
or as you,
as they call it
in England,
amateur dramatics,
but, you know,
he was always
the lead
in the local play.
Come on in.
Oh, hi.
Hey, look who it is.
Do you want to give
another cooking tip to Donald? Do you want some Sancerre? Yeah. Oh, she's Hey, look who it is. Do you want to give another cooking tip to Donald?
Yeah.
Oh, she's going to pour me some Sancerre and my champagne flute.
Hey, how you doing?
Welcome back.
How's everyone doing?
Everyone's great.
We're good over here.
The pizza came out good, as you can see.
Yeah?
Oh, my God.
Did you like the oil?
I love the oil.
The problem was I got to figure out a way to fuse the garlic into the olive oil.
And I think maybe if I cook it, that'll help out.
Well, also what you could do is instead of chopping it, did you do the grater tip?
No, I just, I literally took olive oil and just dropped garlic into it.
Right. Yeah, no, no.
And then covered it and shook it.
No, I get you.
So what you're going to do is you have obviously one of those big graters with like all the
different levels.
Yeah.
So if you go onto the thin slice rather than what you do on Parmesan and you grate the
garlic and put it in the oil and then mix it around, it will start kind of getting all
good and juicy pretty much after 10, 15 minutes.
Okay.
And that lasts actually for a week.
So you could put that on your salads, on your garlic bread.
Okay.
You'll be good with that.
This has been another edition of Flossie's Cooking Tips.
You look great.
I was just going to say, Donald.
Give him another one.
Put some, okay, so your next pizza, you're going to get some goat's cheese,
the one that's not wet, but it's like in the tube, like the white tube.
Yeah.
And you're going to do that.
And you're going to do your pesto oil.
And then you're also going to put some Parma ham on it.
And it will blow your mind.
What is Parma ham?
That sounds delicious.
It's like, I mean, do you have ham on?
Like a Spanish cut ham?
Yeah.
I'm sure I could find it. I'm sure I could find it.
I'm sure I could find it.
Yeah.
Like strip that up, put that on your pizza with goat's cheese and some of your pesto
and actually your garlic and you'll have an awesome pizza.
I can't wait.
Like I made the sauce myself.
Yeah.
Did you?
I don't.
Yeah.
So what I did was I took 10 tomatoes and i put some garlic
into the tomatoes and then i blended it all up in a um is in a in a in a blender and then i
poured it over some heat in a pot and then add some sugar and some salt and some vinegar
i did very little sugar a lot of salt, a lot of vinegar.
And that shit came out.
It was great.
Naughty.
Naughty.
That sounds naughty.
But this was all from watching.
All of this came from watching you that day.
Just like you are a natural, yo.
You were mesmerized.
I was.
You are a natural at cooking.
I watch you when you do the Instagram stuff and you're chopping stuff up and you're
about to cook I watch that stuff too
Flo keep it coming
please keep it coming as a matter
of fact okay
no no no I was doing it
in a positive way
you were doing it in a quiet way
this has been another edition of Flo's cooking tips
alright see this podcast has something for everyone let's say you don't even like scrubs This has been another edition of Flo's Cooking Tips. All right.
See, this podcast has something for everyone.
Let's say you don't even like scrubs.
Well, you just got some pizza cooking tips.
Listen, that's not all she can cook, though.
She can cook so many things.
You're a very lucky, lucky man.
Yeah, I am very lucky, of course.
It's idiotic.
It makes absolutely no sense.
I get it.
People who write on the internet, why the hell is she with him?
I get it.
I don't understand it either.
We were doing it.
Listen, as your best friend, you're a little bit above your pay grade right now, dude.
I know.
I know.
Well, you don't have to join the people on the internet, Donald.
You're supposed to be the...
I honestly thought that was going to go the other way
Donald was going to say as your best friend
she's lucky to have you too
no no no
and instead he's like as your best friend
yeah you're hitting above your fucking pay grade
right now
but you'd say the same thing to me
you say that shit to me all the time about Kase
it makes absolutely no sense.
I get it.
Listen, she was helping with an audition the other day.
It was a voiceover audition.
She got the part and you didn't.
No, listen, this is my joke.
I'm positive that's what's going to happen.
Listen, it's an animated character.
I'm not going to say anymore because it's super top secret.
But I love doing animated voices.
And it's for a huge thing. And I'm i'm like babe i need you to read with me and she's like
all right but tell me about like my character i'm like don't don't worry about your character
you're you're off camera you just i mean it wasn't being filmed it was just audio so it was like
normally if you're doing it for those you don't know if an actor's doing a video edition
your friend who's reading with you is behind the camera you never even see them but with an audio
edition it was like we were kind of on the same playing field so i was like you know
trying to say in so many words like don't like upstage me with your fucking great acting i i
this audition is about me okay so your character can't be like great right right so she starts
playing so like so she starts getting into character and all little by little i'm like
she's gonna get the fucking part over me.
They're going to be like, who was reading with him?
Because that was fine.
I mean, Zach was fine, but whoever was reading with him was amazing.
I think we all went out for the same part.
Did you audition for ****?
Yes, that was it.
You auditioned for that, too?
Yeah, who didn't, man?
That shit is everywhere, man.
All right.
Well, I thought that i was one of them i well i
understand why you you you should definitely read for that part we can't give away too many specifics
but i could actually even imagine you being way better at it than me i imagine because of because
of certain specific well because of certain specific aspects of the character that you
would do well dude you're perfect for it. And look, we're both
******. We both love ******.
No ******. Well, you beep that, Dan.
We're both blank fans.
We're both...
Dude, I'm not trying to
break an NDA before I even get the part.
Anyway, Donald, I just want you to know that you know the audition now you know the scene and flo was reading the other part in the scene and i'm sitting here as a director being like oh
fuck she's good at this and i'm like everyone's gonna be listening to this be asking about
dude i i totally get it all right should we get in the episode donald let's get the episode these
people came in for a Scrubs podcast.
They're getting pizza podcasts for free.
They're getting Star Wars podcasts for free.
But they tuned in for a Scrubs podcast, Donald.
Okay, well, then let's start it off.
Dude, I thought it was very funny that Nurse Roberts is at the diner with us.
I'm laughing at that, too.
Nurse Roberts has never socialized with us ever.
Ever, ever.
Why is she there?
Because she's best friends with Carla.
No, because I said I'd buy.
No, I know, but that's what you said.
You said, hey, it's on me.
It's my treat.
And then you're pissed off at her, and she's like, you said it was my treat.
You didn't say it's my treat except for the lobster.
Yeah, and I go, I said it was my treat. You didn't say it's my treat except for the lobster. Yeah.
And I go, I said no shellfish.
Why?
First of all, why is Nurse Roberts ordering?
Who the fuck orders lobster at a diner?
A diner.
Come on, Nurse Roberts.
Dude, I went to a diner.
Nurse Roberts was like, pre-food, I'll have the lobster.
But Nurse Roberts, we're at a diner.
That's fine.
Lobster, please.
Lobster, please.
You go to a diner, you get a burger.
You get the freaking pancakes.
You get the French toast.
You get the eggs and bacon.
Those are, you can't go wrong.
But when you start ordering like the shepherd's pie and stuff like that,
just know that it wasn't made that day.
I know.
It wasn't made at that moment.
You know,
when you go to a diner or someplace that has like a menu,
that's like 10 pages long.
And you're like,
how the fuck do they make all this stuff?
Like cheesecake factory is one of those places.
It's like a novel.
The menu is a,
is a light novel,
a novella.
And you're like,
how could they possibly make all this stuff? And then there's always that person that like orders like thella. And you're like, how could they possibly make all this stuff?
And then there's always that person that like orders,
like the fish.
And you're like,
I wouldn't be ordering the fish here.
Oh,
how are the scallops at IHOP?
Right.
Cheesecakes.
Cheesecakes.
Yeah.
Wow.
First of all, not only is Nurse Roberts there because she was going to get free food, but I'm sitting there with the woman I love is macking with her new boyfriend. And I wanted to ask you, do you think you could ever be out with your girlfriend's new ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend?
Like, who does that?
Dude, I've been very lucky in my life for that to never happen to me.
I saw it happen to a buddy of mine and that shit.
And I saw how it fucked him up.
I don't want to say his name, but you were there, too.
And we were out and somebody was out with us and his ex-girlfriend was there.
And we were like, let's bring her over.
And he was like, please, no, no, no, no, no.
Don't you dare do it.
He knows who it is.
But I've been lucky.
Like, you've gone out and run into ex-girlfriends of mine with their new boyfriends a couple of times.
That's always so awkward when it's like, hey, you.
Hey, you.
But I mean, I would never do what JD does in this. He allows himself to go sit in a diner booth with the woman he still clearly has feelings for and her new guy.
And they're like making out at the diner booth.
That sounds like fucking hell.
Yeah.
And then he bests JD also in the the freaking in the he gives a beautiful toast and jd and jd wipes a tear away
your father would say yeah right your father would have said to yours that's an f that's an f yeah
f job f job f while speaking of my father he was very into public displays of not affection in terms of physical affection,
in terms of going around the table and all saying something nice.
Like if it was someone's birthday, let's all go around and say what we love about Donald.
And some people are like really shy when that happens.
They're like, oh, no.
But my father loved like, well, I'll start.
And, you know, he just loved going around the table,
all saying,
you know,
things about people.
And so,
yeah,
in this scene,
JD is so mad that,
that,
that,
that Ricky Schroeder's there.
And he says something like,
I'm going to say something that only people that know Turk and Carla for a long time would really understand.
But you guys rock.
You do. You do.
You do.
And that's the extent of the speech.
Yeah.
And then,
and then he,
he gets up,
he gets,
Nurse Flowers gets up and gives like a beautiful speech.
And I just love how I,
I like surreptitiously like swipe a tear.
And then go,
I go,
lame.
And then I go, and then I go, lame and then I go and then I go
lame
and I go
this guy
like what an asshole
great
he's really good
Ricky
yeah dude
he's freaking
Rick Schroeder dude
I mean come on
let's talk about
golf Donald
because at
2.14
you have quite a golf swing on the roof of the hospital
and this was before you had an interest in golf yeah i wrote that down my golf swing is actually
pretty no my golf swing is pretty shitty in this uh episode it's bad uh and yours is too but
you know uh i, I love,
you tell me to take a running start. As you say,
I wrote it down.
You'd said a lot of the better pros take a running start.
This is all,
I think this is all from happy Gilmore.
Uh,
I think all of our dialogue at this is from happy Gilmore and I'm doing the,
uh,
Carl Weathers,
uh, dialogue from that movie.
Oh, really?
Yeah, so Carl Weathers in Happy Gilmore is Happy Gilmore. I never saw Happy Gilmore.
It's a golf movie about a guy who's down on his luck.
Wow, Daniel just looked really upset by that.
It's funny.
It's such a good.
Look, dude, Apatow.
It's Apatow and uh adam sandler so a lot
of people don't know this i know this just by luck just by luck but judd and adam are best friends
from like college or some shit like that and when adam was coming up he would be like dude check out
my stuff and he'd be like, let me fix this for you,
or let me help you out here. Like he does with all of his, all of his protege. He does that with
Seth. He does it with Jason. He does it with all of them. You know what I mean? That's his,
he's one of those cats that you go to that kind of helps you along the way.
Yeah. He mentors people.
He's a great mentor. And Adam and Judd have a relationship that spans all the way back from when adam was on mtv
from what i understand now this is all somebody telling me this story and so when adam's making
all these movies back in the day he would bounce all of his ideas off of his best friend judd apatow
if i'm wrong if i'm wrong judd adam please feel free to call in the fake doctors, real friends, and put me in my place.
We would love it.
Listen, you've said it, and you've said it on the internet now, so I think that makes it true.
There it is.
I'm looking it up right now at all plays.
They moved in.
They were old roommates.
Yeah.
Wow.
Now, Don, you were not into golf at all and in fact you say in this uh episode
like damn it you damn you tiger woods why did i have to get into golf um but we have clubs and
everything like we have the gear why are we so bad that's that's golf that's how it is that
literally is how it is your first i mean unless. You have to invest in yourself and in golf
to get really good at it. There's no way that you can come into golf and just be a really good
player. It took me a year to break 100. And after I broke 100, people were like, you're now in the 10th percentile of golf players. And then from breaking 100 to breaking 90 to breaking 80 to all of these things, it just gets smaller and smaller.
There are very few people that are scratch golfers in the world.
What are you hitting these days?
So my handicap right now is 7.9.
It was at one point.
I got it all the way down to 6.6 which was really cool how are you
on um on um when they put sort of the obstacle things like if there's a windmill or a loop-de-loop
are you good at those i don't ever play that stuff anymore when i was a kid that was a great first
date but i don't ever go so you're saying what you're telling me here and this is probably a lot
of this is new information for a lot of people listening, is that when you get into the bigger golf courses, there are no loop-de-loops or windmills?
No, there are no longer loop-de-loops and windmills.
I'm with Zach.
It sounds considerably less fun.
Yeah.
Yes.
I mean, I used to love it when my ball would go in the hole, and then you'd go in the tube, and you'd be like, where's it going to come out?
Oh, shit.
Where's the tube go? And then you'd be in the tube, and you'd be like, where's it going to come out? Oh, shit, where's the tube go?
And then you'd be running down to look for where the tube came out.
And then, oh, you're telling me you're removing the most fun element of golf from the game.
There's no secret tubes?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know in the last hole in mini golf when you get like a free game
if you get it in the right hole?
I once did that.
Yeah.
And it was thrilling.
Bells went off.
Did you keep score?
Nice. Yeah, I don't remember
what I got, but it was probably a 7.9
I think is what I got.
Actually, I am recalling
it was a 7.85.
By the way, you know what would be a good product
for us to invent would be a full huggable plastic suit that you can put on to hug people during COVID.
It's like the Michelin Man outfit.
It's got inflatable aspects to it.
It's like Marty McFly and Doc Brown in Back to the Future when they got the freaking nuclear uh the the hazmat suits on we should make
thank doctor real friends hug had met hazmat suits for all of the populace and then we'll
have to do a little disclaimer that's like we are not responsible if you get covid from using
this thing and hugging people do you remember when um do you remember when dan came over to
drop off the funko pop um And he was hazmatted out?
Yeah, that's what we're going to wear.
I said it before, and I'll say it again.
Dan's a lot bigger than I thought he was.
I thought Dan was going to be like 5'2".
Yeah.
He's like 6'1".
Well, you've only seen Dan sitting.
Very true.
Dan looked like he could fuck somebody up.
I would give him 100.
I would give him 100.
Dan looked like he could fuck somebody up.
When I saw him, I was like, oh, Dan.
Oh, shit.
Wow, I'm honored by that.
Should we take a break?
What are we doing here?
Dan's the sweetest person.
Probably.
Yeah. All right, we're going to take a break, Jewel, or what? What are we doing here? The sweetest person. Probably. Yeah.
All right.
We're going to take a break.

Let's get back into it.
One of Bill's favorite lines he always quoted was,
Do not say splotchy. Good splotchy, Dr. Splotchy.
When Ken comes in with his face all burnt.
Yeah, I thought he was amazing in this episode.
This is a perfect example of a storyline in an episode.
It's like the D storyline in the episode.
And it's so funny that you laugh at it the whole way through.
From the beginning where he's talking about
how the coffee sucks in the hospital
and he has to go to the freaking coffee box
across the street to get it,
to it spilling on his face,
to hide Dr. Splotchy, that line,
all the way to the shit that fucking Johnny says to him,
dark roast and fucking, like all of those things
this was one of the funny i remember this storyline from when we recorded it from when
we shot it back in the day and i always thought yeah if you're ever on a show and you have the
opportunity to have something this funny and that least amount of work like you know what i mean ken
had to work maybe two days the whole episode,
but his storyline is so funny and so good that it's memorable.
It's, you know, it's a win, dude.
Yeah, and everything, it's one of those things where it was the gift
that kept on giving.
Every time he showed up, there'd be another funny joke about it.
Yeah.
And what about this?
How about my Seinfeld impersonation where I go,
what's the deal with Q-tips
They're not Q's and they're not tips
I loved it
I know it's meant to be a horrible joke
But why couldn't the writers have come up with
Like an actual joke
This is just like nothing
Like you can
Come up with
I'm confused are you trying to tell me that
Seinfeld isn't funny?
No, I love Seinfeld.
I'm saying that this joke that's a fake Seinfeld joke doesn't even make any sense.
What's the deal with Q-tips?
They're not Qs and they're not tips.
There are great Seinfeld one-liners, like one of my favorites.
If the black box is the only thing that survives a plane crash, why don't they
make the whole plane out of the black box?
That's a great
fucking joke, dude. Great joke.
He has some of the
best jokes that
are, you know, it's like
he took
the simplicity
of what it means to tell a joke
and he does it so well.
He's one of the,
in my opinion,
I love Jerry Seinfeld.
I think he's one of the best comedians out there.
Me too.
I'm just saying,
I didn't know why they just didn't come up with a real joke.
I guess it's supposed to be so not funny.
And then they cut to the patient going.
Right.
I love,
I love Jerry Seinfeld.
I think he's amazing. think jerry seinfeld like
uh when i was a kid bill cosby himself was one of the dopest uh uh uh stand-up jump
things that i had ever seen and my parents would let me watch it because bill cosby didn't curse
right and i feel like jerry seinfeld's one of those people that I can put my,
you want to know how to,
you want to learn the,
the algorithm of how to tell a joke and how to make it funny.
I would play that documentary that he'd had back in the day.
What was it?
Comedian.
Was that what it was called?
Where he starts off doing,
it's the anatomy of how he builds a set.
And it's one of the greatest.
Well, I think that that one was, that's when he like went back and like said, I'm going to do all new material.
Yeah, I'm going to start.
They did a documentary that followed him and other comics.
Chris Rock's in it, like a bunch of people around.
Yeah, a lot of comics will always use some of their go-to jokes forever.
Whereas he was like, no, I'm going to throw out everything I've ever done
and I'm going to start from scratch,
which was pretty cool.
I like that documentary.
It's called Comedian.
Yeah, such a great storyteller he is.
And I took offense just now
when you said they were trying to make a bad joke,
like as if Seinfeld told bad jokes.
He tells great jokes.
Okay, well, I hope I didn't offend you, Donald,
when I applied the thing.
No, I took offense.
I'm telling you right now, I took offense.
I took offense for him, for this New York native,
for the dude whose show is based on the building
I grew up in.
I took offense.
Okay.
Do you watch Cars and Coffee with comedians?
I don't watch any of his work. I just took i'm just saying oh my god i would like the record to reflect that donald has never
seen an episode of seinfeld he's never seen an episode of drinking coffee with comedians in cars
i have i have seen episodes of sein. I have seen several episodes of Seinfeld.
I told someone the other night that you had only seen the finale of Breaking Bad.
And they were like, they had to like sit down.
They were so upset by this.
They were like, who would do that?
I did.
I did.
My wife was like, my wife binged the whole shit.
She binged all of it.
And I wouldn't watch any of it. She was like, you got to watch this show.
It's so good.
And she was doing it so she could be on time for the finale.
For the last season.
So she watched everything within like a six-month span.
She watched every episode of Breaking Bad just so she could watch the last season, right?
I didn't watch any of it. i didn't watch any of it i didn't watch any of it i would walk into the room and i would see and i'd be like that's overacting oh my god he's overacting and i would clown i would clown certain
spots knowing that look when you watch a show and in its entirety there's a reason why certain things are done but when you
just see little specific you know moments in it you're you're lost one and two you don't get that
you don't get what's going on and so therefore you're very judgmental i had a very that last
that being said that last episode is one of the best things I've ever seen on television. And I've never watched one episode of Breaking Bad in my life.
That last episode.
The disconnect I have in my brain, and I'm sure every person who has at least one ear listening to this is thinking,
then why would you not go back and watch the show many people think is one of the greatest of our lifetime?
Because I saw the end end i know how it ends
it's a waste of time to go back and see oh my god oh my god all right listen i watched the finale
of breaking bad at kate hudson's house she had a a soiree where they were gonna do a viewing party
of the last episode now in hindsight i don't know why I went to this.
If you love the show, you kind of just want to be like on your couch focusing.
But I thought it sounded fun.
Now, you know, the guy who plays Donald won't know.
But you guys know the guy who played Hank, the bald cop, right?
Wasn't his name Hank?
I think so.
Hold on.
His neighbor.
Yeah.
His neighbor and best friend.
Yes.
What's that actor's name?
Anyway, the point is.
Isn't it Dean something?
Thank you.
It's by Dean Norris.
Yeah, Dean Norris.
All right, so Dean Norris is a wonderful actor.
With his head shaved, he looks a lot like Bruce Willis.
If you've ever seen them next to each other,
they could easily be brothers.
So I get to Kate Hudson's house, and they've got TVs set up.
It's a party.
There's multiple places within her house to watch the show.
I want to pick a good location, so I find a good spot.
And I look over, and then seated on the couch next to me is Dean Norris.
And sitting next to Dean Norris is Bruce Willis.
And there's not much more to the story other than that was really weird
because they,
they didn't know each other.
It was clear.
They didn't know each other and they had just met.
It was clear that they really, really look a lot alike.
And then there we were watching this elaborate finale with Dean Norris sitting right there.
It was very trippy.
I wish the story had more of a flourish ending.
And then I wrestled them both to the ground and tickled them.
Kate throws some dope parties, man.
I've been to two parties at kate hudson's house
thanks to you and both times i was like holy shit leo's here best party of my life
it's funny that you would bring up of all actors um leo i i wonder are you surprised
i just wonder that of all actors
that are in the Screen Actors Guild
you decided to bring up one actor specifically
Well, you know
I love Leonardo DiCaprio
it's just how it goes
he's my favorite actor of
my generation
You know, a lot of the fans are clamoring
for merch that says
I dock with Leo.
And I think that's a great idea.
I'll call him
if I could. I would call him
and I'd get him to sign off on it. I know a lot of
people, look, we used to be friends.
We don't talk much anymore
unless we see each other.
But I would hit him up if I could and say
Leo, I want to put out a
shirt or some merch that says a mug a mug that says i would dock leo and yeah i'd i'd uh i'd
wear a tank top that says i'd dock leo for fuck's sake just stop talking about your willies all
right i'm sorry jeb sorry all right let's let's let's get back to the show who knew that carla For fuck's sake, just stop talking about your willies. All right. Sorry, Jeff.
Sorry.
All right.
Let's get back to the show.
Who knew that Carla was scared of toilet snakes?
Yes.
Carla is afraid of a snake crawling out of the toilet.
Have you seen the video of the dude who went to the bathroom and had to jump off the fucking toilet because there was a snake coming out of it?
No. Go on. You haven't seen this no somewhere in florida of course of course of
course there is a man who was sitting on the toilet and he jumped off the toilet because there
is a snake literally coming out of the toilet which means it's like a water moccasin
or some shit like that
that could really fucking do damage.
Because, or, I mean,
I don't know any other serpents
that fucking swim.
Like, I guess there's an anaconda.
An anaconda swims.
But it didn't look like an anaconda.
You're saying it came out of the toilet,
like up the sewage? Up the sewage, and it's coming out like an anaconda. You're saying it came out of the toilet, like up the sewage?
Up the sewage, and it's coming out of this dude's toilet.
Look it up.
Look it up.
I will.
I mean, a little tickle.
If it was just a little tongue lick, it might feel nice.
Just a little tickle.
Who doesn't like a tongue lick?
But I'm thinking it's some type of poisonous serpent
or some shit like that that will bite
that'll bite you
how about Elliot calling herself
four date read which means she waits
until the fourth date to have sex with everyone
how about Elliot admitting the fact that she's crazy
she says to Carla
Carla you know that I'm crazy right
and she goes yeah
I'm having a hard time hiding it from nurse flowers.
Yeah.
Well, later in the episode, she has a really funny monologue that she just did a great,
it was written very well.
It was funny, but she just delivered it really funny about how fucking nuts she is.
And then she's just finally, she says to Rick Schroeder, like, you want to know? This is why I'm hiding.
And he just lets all her fucking crazy loose.
And it's really, really funny.
And then Rick Schroeder's like, I'm so turned on right now.
And then they go and like furiously make out.
That was funny.
Do you know why he's so turned on?
Why?
Because crazy is good.
It gets old quick, but it's good in the beginning.
If you can find yourself somebody crazy in the beginning, you're like, holy shit, we were doing so many crazy things.
Oh, you mean crazy sexually or do you mean crazy like a crazy person?
You mean crazy in bed?
I mean crazy sexually.
So what happens is crazy person usually means crazy sexually.
And so from crazy sexually, you're like, holy shit, look at all the things we're doing.
But here's the thing.
Crazy gets old real quick because at some point you're like, yo, this person's fucking crazy.
Yeah, but also don't you worry sometimes if someone's too nuts in bed that you're a little like, Jesus, they've got 10,000 hours.
Who gives a fuck who
cares they're with you at that moment who cares who cares dude who the fuck cares what happened
before you and what's going to happen after you this was something i was hung up on for so long
oh my god she's too experienced or oh my god she's not experienced enough fuck that shit when you're
with someone you're with someone and you're with someone, and that's
your moment together. What happens before and after is irrelevant, dude. It has nothing to do
with you, so why worry about it? All right. Well, I think that's good advice for people.
I'm sure there's other people out there who it's crossed their mind when their partner all of a
sudden is doing some position that not even the Kama Sutra had time
to draw. But they're like, where did this come from? That's your own hangup. Honest to goodness,
that's your own hangup. If what I do is too advanced for you and you're not having a good
time, then you know what? We shouldn't be together and vice versa. Your love, your love might be too much for me.
It might be like a double black diamond sex and I'm just ready for,
for blue square.
Is there such thing as a blue square? Is that, is that, yeah,
it goes green, it goes green circle, blue square, black diamond,
double black diamond.
Got it.
And I, I, I'm just saying, you you know you might be a blue square um person in bed and then all of
a sudden you're in bed with a double black diamond person you're like oh shit this is scary these
moguls are hard i don't know how to keep this metaphor you ain't gonna die listen did someone
die as long as you don't die, it's all good, right?
If you survive a double black diamond, you're like,
I'm going to do that double black diamond again.
Right.
As long as you don't die.
Right.
As long as you survive.
Donald, why do golf clubs need socks?
I've been dying to know this my whole life.
Why do you have to put little booties on them?
They get cold?
I didn't know this my whole life.
Why do you have to put little booties on them?
Or they get cold?
No, it's just that dents and things like that happen to clubs,
and scratches happen to clubs.
And, you know, it's all about what you see when you look down at the ball and the club.
So if there's a dent or a scratch on your club, it might throw your alignment off.
It might... This is honest. When might, these are, this is honest.
Like when I first started playing golf,
I didn't understand why all these people
had socks on their clubs,
but it's actually to keep the shit looking so much.
You're used to a certain picture when you're playing golf
and you're looking down at a golf ball
and your driver or your three wood or your hybrid club you're you're
used to a certain picture if there's a scratch on it that might throw off your swing if there's a
dent in it that might throw off your swing so it's important to take care of your clubs
when i first when i first started playing golf i was like that's bullshit until you until it
happens to you and then you're like oh okay i get it now but donald
excuse me for not knowing this is true but it seems to me only certain clubs get little dinky
cozy socks not all the clubs get them right because there are certain like your irons usually
can handle clinking against each other your Your woods. Your one wood.
Your one wood.
Well, that's more like a driver.
Your one wood is a driver.
But like your drivers and your woods, if they get a dent on them,
they're not as effective as they would be if they were in good condition.
So you want to keep those in pristine shape. You want to keep all your clubs.
If you paid a thousand, like them things ain't cheap.
Like usually you pay like a thousand dollars for clubs, upward of a thousand dollars for
clubs.
And so you want to maintain that investment.
You want to, you want to keep that investment.
For all of your clubs or one club?
For all of your clubs.
So like you go from putter, putter to driver, you're spending upwards of a thousand dollars
usually.
There are some manufacturers that make clubs that are...
I'm very lucky.
I am down with PXG, and that's the ultimate club in golf, in my opinion.
They are the dopest of the dopest.
And because of that, you damn right, I protect that shit.
I protect my driver.
I protect my 3-wood.
I protect my hybrids.
I protect that.
You know, Donald, you might want to change where you're playing
because where I play, they give you a club.
And you don't have to take care of it.
You just pick one that's the right size for you.
Right, but you also play where they got windmills. You just pick one that's the right size for you. And you just play the whole course.
Right, but you also play where they got windmills.
You also play where they got windmills and freaking clouds.
There's no extra charge for the windmill.
There's no extra charge for the windmill.
And there are snacks.
Right, but there's snacks at real golf courses.
We got to call it.
We got to go to break.
Let's go to break.
Let's go to break.
We got to be right back after this break.

You've got Joelle and Daniel here.
That's Donald.
Why are you sleep deprived?
What is going on?
What's going on?
Are those action figures in your background or no?
Yeah, some of them are.
There's Godzilla.
There's a dog.
I got him on some travels.
And then there's just a bunch of mess.
My wife and I are both teachers,
so this is our teacher's show.
We're teaching from home,
and so we have to switch in and out
to teach right now because we're all doing virtual.
I'll show you the reason I'm sleep-deprived.
Let's see if he's still awake.
Aw.
Oh, here comes the baby, y'all.
It's going to be a baby, y'all. It's going to be a baby, y'all. Or aall it's gonna be a baby it's gonna be a baby y'all

He's a little going back on sleep regression right now,
so we're trying to see if we can
get him back to sleep at some point.
He's been staying up a lot of nights and stuff.
Congratulations. That's very
exciting. Thank you very much.
It's just been an exciting week overall, so I'm super
happy.
Can I do one thing right now?
Anything you want.
Yes.
Well, he knocked over the chair, first of all.
Oh, Jesus.
Are you okay?
I fell over.
Are you okay, dude?
Nicholas may or may not be happy.
No one can see me.
Nicholas, don't die, dude.
Don't die, dude.
I told you I was nervous.
Don't be nervous.
Okay.
You guys know how you do it with the whiteboard.
And then I wrote, the day after that, I wrote one, ask a question on fake doctor's real friend.
And it happened. And it happened. Thunders applause. Thunders applause, Dan. Turn your
key. Turn your key. Turn your key. Turn your key. I turned my key. I turned my key. Nicholas has
held up a whiteboard and it says goals at the top because we did a segment talking about whiteboards and writing down your goals.
And the very first thing on his goal list is ask a question on Fake Doctors, Real Friends.
And it is beautifully crossed out.
And then after that, it's win a dance battle.
Dude, we can make that happen today, too.
Yeah.
But you better know how to dance.
I can't take it all in.
Okay.
It's done.
It's done.
I'm not going to win that one right now.
Well, I'm really happy for you, man.
We joke around 99% of the time here, but I really believe in this stuff.
I really believe in writing your goals down and manifesting things and looking at it every single day.
your goals down and manifesting things and looking at it every single day. And I've seen a handful of people out there who've, who sent me sort of jokey, or maybe they're not joking screenshots
of the whiteboard they got. And, uh, and I'm, I'm really, I really am a big fan of it. I think
there's, you know, looking at something every day, even if it's going in your brain subconsciously
and going, God, what have I done today to further that goal? I think that that's, it's very, very
effective. So I listen, Nicholas, you're, you're, you're walking proof. It works. Here you
are on, on the show. I know it's so, it's so exciting. Yeah. I totally believe it. I told
my students that I try to like, I try to put a lot of positivity in the world and I try to do
positive stuff. And so I just also try to think positive thoughts. So I'm like, if it doesn't
happen, it doesn't happen, but I'm going to keep on trying.
And so I sent Joel a few emails, and this is the one that got picked.
So I was like, hey, it worked.
It worked.
So I'm super excited.
Good, good.
Right on.
You made me happy.
You made me happy.
The fact that we can make a minuscule difference in your life in any way
makes us happy.
Wait, hold up.
I have a random question for Nicholas.
Yeah.
Have you ever watched Eight is Enough?
Yeah, it was a long time ago, but I've seen it.
Do you remember
Nicholas from Eight is Enough?
Yeah, he was so cute.
He's so cute, yeah.
The bowl haircut.
He was like Joey
Lawrence. Joey Lawrence was
Joey and everything. I like nicholas was nicholas
and everything this is just a non-sequitur moment a non-sequitur moment for me yeah but joey lawrence
really always played joey and i always wondered why does he have it in his contract that the
character is going to be named joey the guy never played anyone not named joey apparently he did
that too tony was always tony in almost every show that he ever did.
Even on Taxi?
Yeah, Taxi.
Then it was Tony in Who's the Boss?
And then he was Tony.
He just came out with another Netflix show a little while ago.
He was always Tony in every show.
All right, Nicholas, do you have a question for any of us?
It could be about any topic in the world.
I have a question. And then I also have a fix it
for your fix.
Yes, good, good, good.
We're excited to fix your life.
We're going to fix your life.
Good, we can fix anything.
You got a new baby,
a beautiful wife.
We're going to fix your life.
This new segment,
a lot of new segments
hitting the show, Donald.
But fix it, I think,
is the world's favorite.
Everyone is clamoring
about all the fixing we're doing.
They want me to fix their life and they want you to fix their life.
Well,
we're going to do it.
All right,
Nicholas question first,
go ahead.
Okay.
Question first.
And this is one that I,
that was really hit home.
I was trying to think of a lot of shows before y'all's that had like two male
characters that were very open with their emotions.
Uh,
and so loving.
And I remember like I had a roommate, we lived together forever.
We like, that was what we did. We were just very open and loving.
I remember we, it wasn't just like toxic masculinity where you had to be,
you know, rah, rah, rah all the time. And it was just like,
I really thought like Scrubs spoke to me.
And I think the more I watched it, the more seeing y'all's friendship,
it was for me, it was a way to just kind of be like, Oh,
I can be open with my feelings and I can say, I love you. And even now,
like as you know, growing up and raising my son, that's something I want to,
I want this openness and I don't like, you guys have talked about it a lot,
but even in the first season, it was very, there was very,
a lot more openness even before y'all had built a lot of chemistry and stuff
outside of the show. So I didn't know if like like did Bill bring that in or did he just build off because y'all just
instantly connected like how did that happen I don't know how that happened that's a good
question because I think it was both of us two things happening simultaneously it was
my and Donald's friendship really growing and becoming really true best friends in real life.
And then we were so like that,
that I think that he started to lean it even more in that direction.
Like it was,
I feel like it was,
I feel like it was always JD and Turk were always meant to be the,
the relationship that every guy wishes they could have with another male uh you know you
they they they but zach and i we became that relationship and then it was like well then
i know let's go even further with it you know what i I mean? I don't know how to, I don't know how that happened. That's a,
that's a,
that's a great question because it started off that way.
And then we just,
we just ate it up and took it to the next level,
I guess.
Yeah.
I don't think if you look at the pilot,
there's not a whole lot of like commentary on masculinity.
I mean,
my character's a little nerdy,
but it's more about like,
about me and Donald being best bros. And there's stuff about like race. There's stuff about like,
hey, if there's a rap song and the N words in there, am I allowed to sing it? And he's like,
no. And I'm like, okay, good. I needed to know that. Thank you very much. So there's,
I think Bill wanted to like, talk about two close friends who were, who, who were best buds and,
and, and race barely even came into the equation.
But I think this sort of commentary we started doing
on what is traditional masculinity
sort of developed over time with me and Donald's relationship.
I really liked it.
I mean, it was very freeing, I guess.
And I couldn't think of any other show before y'all's
that had that type of relationship.
It was, you know, you think of all these ones and it's just two dudes hanging out, drinking beer, stuff along those lines.
But this was this felt very like an authentic friendship.
And I mean, it was, but it was just it was very I really enjoyed that.
So thank you for that, Nicholas. I agree with you on that, because on television you don't see it.
But in real life, that is how guys are.
You know what I mean mean i remember my best
friend in high school he's also an actor now my best friend in high school was dash my hawk
right him and uh this other kid kevin jordan but dash my hawk who is now on ray donovan and
has been in several movies and stuff like that he and i were best friends in high school
stuff like that he and i were best friends in high school and we both moved to los angeles at the same time and uh i remember one time seeing him and his roommate who just happened to be josh
hopkins who was on one of bill's shows and i yeah cougar town and i saw them act the way Zach and I act towards each other.
And it was like, oh,
Zach and I aren't,
you know, we're not, obviously
we're one of a kind because we're who we are,
but this relationship is out
there. There are plenty of people
out there that are like Turk and JD,
that are like Zach and Donald.
Now, I hate to talk about myself in the third
person. I apologize for that. I love it. But there are a bunch of people out there that are like Zach and Donald. Now, I hate to talk about myself in the third person. I apologize for that.
I love it.
But there are a bunch of people out there that are like that.
It's just not portrayed on television in the positive way
that Zach and I were able to portray Turk and JD.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
But I really like that you said that that's going to –
I don't mean to imply that it was from watching us, but the way you talked about wanting to raise your son, you know, not programming him to be filled with the same bullshit that a lot of us were programmed with.
Yeah, absolutely.
It's like the same, like, I didn't drink beer until I was 26.
I was always drinking appletinis and I was drinking, you know know, and, like, everybody gave me a hard time for it,
but I was like, well, Jack's doing it,
like, I can do it too. Like, it just, it was very
freeing, and I loved it, and I was just,
I don't know, I really did appreciate that,
especially growing up, because it meant I could be more
open with the people around me and stuff,
and now, you know, you're older, and you're set
in your ways, and you're like, yeah,
this is just who I am, I'm okay, but when you're younger, it's kind of hard
to be as open as I think a lot of people want to be. Yeah, because you're judged, you're like yeah this is just who i am i'm okay but when you're younger it's kind of hard to to be as open as as i think you want to be yeah because you're judged you're judged and
and other people's judgment has an effect on you which it shouldn't you know what i mean uh and
when you become when you become an adult and you realize that you know everybody else is dealing
with their own shit and you need to deal with your own, who gives a fuck what everybody thinks about you?
It really warms my heart, though.
I got to tell you, when you say something like that,
that the show in some way inspired you to be more who you truly are,
whatever that is.
I mean, I think that's what we're all striving for,
is to be in relationships that allow us to be who we truly are.
And, you know, we were just at the time making a comedy,
but then we did kind of tiptoe into something cultural
about masculinity and talking about
what is acceptable in our society.
And this was 20 years ago.
As we all know, we're still battling
a lot of these issues in 2020.
That's crazy.
All right, now how can we fix your life?
Because that's what we're really good at.
That's where our specialty is.
Nicholas, I'm going to fix your life right now.
Well, you're the one I'm going to ask for.
Number five.
It's a sleep more.
Baby boy is going through a sleep regression right now.
And I wanted to know, Donald, you have so many children.
And I wanted to know, Donald, you have so many children.
I was wondering, do you have any tips on like methods for sleep training and how to get them to sleep more at night?
OK, first of all, how old is your kid?
He's three months, three and a half. He's about to be four.
And the books say that this is about the time when you start doing it.
Right. So you're trying to sleep train right now, right?
Yeah, I think we're going to start this weekend because he's been staying up most nights for these last few nights.
So when the baby starts crying, you kind of have to ignore it.
It is very heartbreaking.
But you kind of have to ignore it and trust that the baby will put himself back to sleep and while the baby's screaming i mean that must be really well for people you know when there's a
problem you know what i mean you know if there if it's here's the thing you have a healthy baby
right am i correct in saying that correct so you know when there is a problem
right now it's just like every kid out there in the world at a very young age you're being tested
to see if you will jump when called for i promise you what i'm i promise you what i'm telling you
is true dude listen we were we were very lucky and we hired a night nurse and all of that stuff.
And the night nurse explained to us the whole situation too.
It really is you being able to say, I know you're crying.
I know you want me right now.
Sort this out for yourself, you know, and you know,
if your baby's crying for over an hour, then yes,
obviously run into the room 45 minutes,
obviously run into the room and see what's going on.
But most likely it's not going to last for more than 15 to 20 minutes.
And then they're going to go back to sleep.
All right. We'll give it a shot. All right.
Nicholas, do you think we've fixed your life? Yeah, we're going to go back to sleep. All right. We'll give it a shot. All right, Nicholas, do you think we've fixed your life?
Yeah, we're going to see.
Thunders applause. Thunders applause,
Dan. Thunders applause. I think we did it.
Nicholas, Nicholas, it doesn't
happen. It doesn't happen overnight. It's
going to take some time. I'm just going to say that.
We fixed his life, Donald. Stop fucking up the segment.
It fucking worked. Okay? You're welcome.
Nicholas, you're welcome.
Nicholas, you're welcome. You're welcome. Thank you you're welcome. Nicholas, you're welcome.
Thank you guys so much for fixing my life.
Thank you, Nicholas.
Good luck with the baby, Nicholas.
Good luck.
Bye, buddy.
I'm sorry I fell out of my chair.
No, you're amazing.
I'll always remember it.
I'll always remember it.
Nicholas should put on that whiteboard,
learn not to fall out of chair.
What a nice man.
Balance.
Speaking of babies, JD fights a demon baby in this episode.
That was funny when he fights the demon baby, huh?
Not only was it a demon baby, it was a demon baby doll.
Because the baby didn't move.
And it looks like you're holding the baby.
No, it was so bad.
But I think the badness of it made it even funnier.
That I'm like running. And then I fall out of frame with it.
Oh, my God.
I had a field day with that fake baby.
Hey, guess what?
This is the very first episode where the janitor meets Turk.
I'm about to say that Turk and the janitor finally meet for the first time,
and the janitor says to Turk
I don't care he's like what's your name
he's like oh hi I'm Turk
by the way you're so excited to meet him I mean
JD must have told you about this janitor and you're like
I'm Dr. Turk you've got like a smile on your face like Dr. Turk
he's like I don't care
now I noticed Donald keeps doing
when he's doing the
with the fist and he punches me and I laugh
when he goes when I yeah I laugh when he go, when I, yeah,
I laughed the whole time.
You can see,
if you go back and watch you guys,
you can see the doll is fucking holding in his laughter at that.
He,
you thought Neil was hilarious in that moment.
Well,
and then what about,
this was my first time working with Neil on a show.
Yeah.
That scene in the office with,
uh,
with Ted,
the lawyer,
our Sam Lloyd is hilarious.
Uh, I really laughed out loud at that. We go in and we tell him hey um we go and we say he goes hey fellas uh always nice
to have some visitors what's the dealio and we're like uh hey uh ted if if two doctors were hitting
golf balls off the roof and they caused the car accident and now the guy's in the icu would would
that be a big problem and there's like a long pause and he's just frozen. And we go, Ted?
And he goes, hey fellas, always nice to have
visitors. What's the dealio?
He just totally
went
into like a dark hole.
And then I
laughed when you put out your fist.
You put out your fist to fist bump him and then
he slaps it like he's slapping you five.
Yeah. Yeah. You put out your fist to fist bump him, and then he slaps it like he's slapping you five? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dude, it's always great to watch him.
At the end of the episode when he's on the roof with the Todd, and he's hitting golf balls off the roof,
he's like, I wonder, I just can't believe I, where did I get the idea to hit golf balls off the roof?
And Todd's like, yeah, man, hey, do you mind if I strip down to the banana hammock
he looks back at him and he's like oh
god and he's about to hit the golf
ball
why is Todd sunbathing
why does he feel the need to get into the fucking
fire covered banana hammock at this
moment this isn't
traditional fire this isn't
the traditional one either this is like a
this is one though it's a
little different it doesn't look the same it's not as flammable flames on it but it had but not
but it wasn't as flame on as the as the real todd one as you're saying the fire the fire is burning
lower on his uh on his banana hammock on his on his banana hammock in this episode that's a good
thing we should bring todd in right now. Todd, let's ask Rob.
Here's a great moment to ask Rob.
Todd talk.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Todd talk.
Rob, the Todd has had several banana hammocks.
What was the most comfortable for you?
And is it us or if you don't mind referencing
the one that you wear at the end of My Karma,
why does that banana hammock feel slightly different
from some of your other more notorious banana hammocks?
And feel free not to write this in a long, prepared paragraph.
Or feel free to write this in a long, prepared paragraph.
Whatever you prefer.
Whatever you want.
Todd Talks.
Comfortable?
The Todd Hammock's up for the people.
Comfort is of no importance.
Now, after Season 2, Episode 1, with the premiere of the Banana Hammock in Mirror Todd,
it made a big impression.
There's a lot of talk, a lot of scuttlebutt,
and I think they wanted to tone it down, tamp it down, tape it down.
But you can't keep the big dog down.
In this episode, my karma?
That was no banana hammock.
It was a speedo.
I should swim the 100-meter freestyle in the Olympics in that thing.
Never again, five.
And please, if you're listening to this, hire Rob on Cameo.
You can send your scrubs, friends, messages from the Todd.
He just had a birthday, guys. He just had a birthday. He turned he turned i know i put him on my my insta 53 i think i think i think it was 53 or 50 53 or 54
one or the other yeah it looks good he looks real good man i'm telling you that when we when we were
doing the show he would always joke that he was much older than us. And he was.
He really was.
Yeah, but he looks good.
He's got nice skin.
Great skin.
You know, the episode really is about, I felt at the end, was about vulnerability.
About putting yourself out there.
Being afraid of how you're going to be judged.
Several characters are afraid of being vulnerable.
And I just thought that was another theme that crept up for me.
I just wrote down vulnerability in relationships
and how we're all wearing this armor to protect our hearts.
But the characters in this episode are going out of their way
to put themselves out there and be brave.
I wish I would have thought of that when I was doing the recap of the show.
Well, your recap was so thorough.
It was so incredibly thorough.
I don't know where you would have had time in the 30 seconds to do that.
All right, everybody, that's our show.
Donald, anything else you want to tell the people?
Yes, I do want to tell all the frontline workers still at this moment right now,
we still want to shout you out and give you all the love we possibly can.
And I don't just mean the frontline workers in the hospitals.
I mean the frontline workers that work at supermarkets, that work at testing sites,
the frontline workers that are out
there, the essential job people that are out there in the streets right now. You are living a life
that a lot of people are afraid to live. And I respect you and I support you from my closet right now because I am afraid to do those things. So that being said, God bless
you and I support you 100%. Thank you everybody for listening. Don't forget to subscribe to the
