Starting point is 00:02:17 Hi, guys! What's up, dude? I guess I should use this opportunity to tell the people I have to come clean about something. Okay. I am in the United Kingdom. Ah. Oh, is that why your background is different?
Starting point is 00:02:34 That's not what's happening. Wait, what? Wait, you mean you're not in America right now? No, no. You guys know. I didn't want to be dishonest to our listeners. My, my girlfriend has a, a sick older relative and needed to come back and be by his bedside. And I wanted to be by her side because no one, as Donald could attest, was a more loving human being in the world when our friend Nick was sick than my girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:03:07 And so she rushed here and then I rushed here. We both had to quarantine for two weeks. And so the last couple of shows I didn't want to talk about on the show because I didn't want to. I just didn't want to get into it. But I just want in case it got out that I happen to be here. I didn't want to be dishonest to our listeners that, uh, I'm, uh, I'm in, I'm in London. Are you, do you have to wear masks in London? Yes. Um, you, well, I'll tell you, it's weird. It's sort of a weird hybrid. They're, they're largely open. Everything's kind of open. Um, but you wear masks when you go inside a place like a restaurant or a store. There's always hand sanitizer when you first walk in.
Starting point is 00:03:51 When you go in a restaurant, they take your temperature. They have a very interesting system that I wish the United States would one day be smart enough to adopt, and that is when you go in a restaurant, you scan a QR code, and then it knows who was in the restaurant at all times. Right. So if there were to be an outbreak, yeah, they can contact race and say, hey, you were here at this time.
Starting point is 00:04:16 That's really smart. Walking around the streets, there's not a lot of mask wearing. I wear it and Florence wears it, but it's not nearly as prevalent as it is obviously where we are in Los Angeles. You know, there's spacing in restaurants. The few times we've eaten, we've eaten outside, but they do like, they skip every other table.
Starting point is 00:04:41 And then sometimes in a restaurant, they'll have like a plexiglass screen between tables. That's sort of, you know, some company quickly put something into production because it's like, it looks like some company is manufacturing them. Dude, I miss you, man. I'm not going to lie, man.
Starting point is 00:04:57 I wish you were here. I made fried chicken the other night. It was delicious. I saw that. I saw that on your Instagram. What's your secret? So here's the thing i have buddies that i grew up with that now own restaurants and went to like culinary school
Starting point is 00:05:11 and now are you know chefs in restaurants and stuff like that a lot of them my brother did the same thing and some of them have developed uh niches and one of my buddies makes pizza for a living brick oven pizza for a living and i you know uh my my my brother olamide whose music we had on the podcast he hit he sent me a uni for my birthday uh somehow he he bought it and sent it to me he was like you know i hope you have fun and i was like well you know and he also works at the restaurant as a bartender that my buddy that I grew up with owns. And I was like, yo, so maybe he could send me that pizza dough recipe. And he sent it. Wow.
Starting point is 00:05:55 And I was like, oh, okay. So I started making pizza in the uni. Then my boy, who has this restaurant in Dallas, saw the love that my boy got when i posted on instagram the pizza and he sent me the recipe for his famous fried chicken that he has in dallas and let me tell you first of all the pizza is phenomenal it was amazing and i can make i now know how to make pizza for days the fried chicken oh my god first of all i love fried chicken anyway you know what i mean it's i've always loved fried chicken and my wife is a huge fried like fried chicken on fried chicken monday
Starting point is 00:06:40 there's this restaurant around the way that has fried chicken mondays we would go every monday because she loves fried chicken so much. When she was pregnant with Wilder, that's all she would want was fried chicken, right? Fried chicken and mashed potatoes. So do you need a deep fryer? Yeah. Now, the problem is the deep fryer I had only can accommodate two pieces of chicken. So it took me up to two and a half hours to make all of that chicken.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Oh, my God. Oh, my God. So that's the dilemma. So I got to figure out a half hours to make all that chicken. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. So that's the dilemma. So I got to figure out a way to... What about an air fryer? Someone told me about an air fryer. Have you tried that? Not what you do with this chicken.
Starting point is 00:07:15 You don't want to air fry it, man. You want to fry that bad boy in some oil. That's good. Listen, air frying is great for health and for cholesterol purposes and stuff like that. But it's an insult to your stuff like that but it's an insult to your buddy's it's an insult to your buddy's recipe it's an insult to chicken period like a chicken's like you're gonna air fry me yeah you're not gonna fry me in some grease
Starting point is 00:07:35 by the way did you um we don't have to say what we were talking about but um donald was uh having a disagreement with his spouse and i i texted him in quotes what I thought he should say to her, and I wondered if you tried out what I wrote. No, no, no, no, no. It's not a good day to do that, dude. It's not a good day to do that. I thought it was kind of funny. I was kind of trying to be like your Cyrano, where I was saying, say this.
Starting point is 00:08:02 I appreciate that that but no you know this whole homeschooling uh zoom schooling that the schools are doing right now with all the students it really does put a lot of pressure on the parents to make sure the kids are doing their job and you know are sitting in front of the zoom and are doing their lessons and stuff like that and yeah you know we're in our second day and she is you know she's not happy about the fact that she her day is she's she's a teacher also you know what i mean we have yeah we have teachers at school and then you know you're supposed to send your kid to school for school and not have to worry about it but it's not like that with this
Starting point is 00:08:46 whole Zoom school thing going on. I have to say, it made me a bit sad when I saw your kids in their adorable school uniforms, and then in my brain, I was like, oh, they're not going to school, so they wear the uniforms when they sit in front of the computer? Yeah, the school prefers that. They wear the uniforms when they sit in front of the computer? Yeah, the school prefers that. I mean, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:09:10 As someone who's not a parent and just witnessing it, that just kind of made me sad. Well, I would prefer that than them being in their pajamas all day. I'm going to be honest with you. No, no, I know. I understand the idea behind it. It's just these poor kids are all, I don't know, not to be Debbie Downer, but I don't know what this does to like
Starting point is 00:09:25 this these kids that are in such crucial times of their lives where they should be socializing and and i don't know i just i will say this put a little bit of a lump in my throat i gotta be honest i will say this my kids right now are into it because they spent a whole summer into it because they spent a whole summer social distancing from everyone you know what i mean like there were very few play dates this this summer because of of covid uh not to say they we we didn't meet up with friends and do outside activities where the kids couldn't you know where the kids weren't all up on each other but social distancing has thrown a monkey wrench in if you're a kid it's fucked up you know to be a kid right now when you're supposed to go out in the summer and run around with your friends and explore and everything
Starting point is 00:10:17 like that and you guys can't get close to each other or you know what i mean so with this whole zoom thing it's really interesting to watch but my kids are into it they have their own space like my son goes into his room and he you know gets to chit chat with his friends on zoom and how does that work though like during the class so like the teacher is leading a class but then like do they have time where they can i don't know how does this work when they like socialize? I know there's a lot of parents listening to this being like, oh, this guy's clueless, but I don't have kids, so I have no idea how it works. How do they, do they have time where they can chit chat with
Starting point is 00:10:52 their friends? Oh, absolutely. They're, you know, and the great thing about it is that, you know, they have, they also have times where the teachers are like, all right, go outside or go, if you don't have a backyard, go someplace and just clear your mind and let's not think about school for 30 minutes. Go. And, you know, my son will come downstairs and he'll either go outside and shoot hoops or he'll stay inside and be like, can I watch the rest of Teen Titans? Go.
Starting point is 00:11:15 And I'm like, yeah, sure, no problem. Like there's breaks in between where the kids can, you know, get away. And then at lunchtime they eat together in front of the thing. And so they can really run to the zoom so they can, but how do they all talk at the same time? Aren't they all like interrupting each other? Yeah, sure. But they get to, you know, you get to, you get to at least see people while you eat.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Yeah. You know, and, and if you have enough charisma, like most kids do, like most phasons, like most phasons do, you can command uh zoom and be like yo everybody shut the fuck up listen listen listen and then fart and then just like his dad just like his dad his dad loves a fart joke that kid has no shortage of personality i can tell you he has a lot of personality he's gonna be an be an actor. You know they're both going to be actors. I hope that whatever they do, I just hope that they're happy when they're
Starting point is 00:12:10 older and they find what it is that they want to do. That's all I can ask for. Me as an actor and going through all of the things that I go through and the anxiety I have about jobs and not having jobs, I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
Starting point is 00:12:26 I wouldn't want my kid to be an actor either. Yeah. When you think about it and people are like, fucking, I could do that job. You get the, I get this a lot from so many people. Are you an actor? I could, I could do it. I could be that. That's easy, man.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Anybody could be an actor. Yeah, you're right. Anybody can be an actor, but do you have the stamina to keep it up, dude? You can act all you want, but do you have the stamina? Do you truly have the stamina to hear no more than you've ever heard it in your life? And then when you do hear yes, to be able to do what's necessary to maintain. We've been so blessed and lucky and not that we didn't hustle our asses off our whole lives, but, but we, in addition to hustling our asses off and working at it and working at it and not giving up, we then had a beautiful roll of the dice and have had successful careers thus far. I, I know, and you know, so many people that are fucking brilliant actors and you just don't know their name and, and their number didn't come up. And that's just, I learned that early on as a kid, I, I, I, I would do stuff in the city and do like free, free play readings. Uh,
Starting point is 00:13:34 you know, uh, a play reading is, you know, the, the, the playwright wants to hear the play out loud and the cast writer gets a few actors to come together and read the play and no one's getting paid. And I remember being a child in some of these things and I would look watching some genius New York theater actor do a scene and I'd be like, my jaw's on the floor. This person's like, I've never seen them before. I've never seen them in a movie,
Starting point is 00:13:58 never seen them on a TV show. And they're the fucking best doctor I've ever seen. And they're here in the basement of a church doing this free play reading with me. And I remember even at a very, very young age being like, this is crazy. This is scary. And so for me, my whole career, I always was searching for other ways to make a living if my number didn't come up. I knew I'd be a cinematographer.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Obviously, I'd be a filmmaker. Or I'd be on the camera crew. I'd be a first assistant director. cinematographer, or obviously I'd be a filmmaker, or I'd be on the camera crew. I'd be a first assistant director. I had all sorts of other plans if I wasn't lucky enough to have my number come up because I saw, oh my God, these people are living hand to mouth and look how good they are. They're better than almost everyone on TV. I never lived that way. That's incredible, man. I said to myself, if I'm going to do this, I got to go all in. And from an early age, that's all I thought about was being an actor.
Starting point is 00:14:52 If I had an opportunity to read something, I would go and do it. And, you know, I was very lucky to have parents who supported me up until I was 23 years old. I lived at home. And even after my big break, when shit, you know, still stalled and wasn't really going, my parents were there to support me until I was able to support myself. And, you know, my jobs, if I hadn't become an actor, I would have been so fucked because I chose not to go to college. I chose not to, you know, get a conventional job. I went all in with the acting. And, you know, I've been lucky. Like you said, I was very, very lucky.
Starting point is 00:15:32 We were both very, very lucky to have our numbers called. I advise people who, if you really, if it is your passion, and it really needs to be, like, the only thing you want to do with your life because it isn't, you know, when you see a successful actor, you might think they made it look easy, but it's not, it's not easy by any such imagination. So, but if you're, if you're committed to it and it's your passion, like my nephew right now is going to school for it. It's his passion. My advice is to study other things within the field where you could make a living.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Your side hustle doesn't need to be doing something that has nothing to do with the industry. So study other crew positions if production interests you that might interest you. Become a writer. Learn producing. Learn all sorts of skills that will at least allow you to stay within the industry that you
Starting point is 00:16:25 might love. But becoming a successful actor is just such a crazy lottery. I always say, if you're a really, really good actor, you've bought a lot of lottery tickets. If you're great looking, like Donald's favorite doc partner, then you've bought more lottery tickets. If you're both, you have a shit ton of lottery tickets. But it's still a fucking lottery. Right. That doesn't necessarily mean your number's going to get caught. No.
Starting point is 00:16:54 You know what I mean? Yeah. And since I've become an actor, I have figured out ways to get other skill sets, like stop motion animation like so now if let's say it dried up i know i'm good enough now as of a stop motion animator to get a job in the stop motion industry at least i think i am you know what i mean i think you are but what do i know but i think you are right you could also be a line chef and make fried chicken. Dude, I could make some fried chicken for you. I could call up my boy and be like, listen, it ain't going well. Let me work the kitchen.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Yeah. And if he says I don't have room in the kitchen for you, I'll be like, well, I got your recipe. Yeah. But you know what, Tom? And I'm going to make that shit myself. And you know what I know about you? And bam, I'm going to make money selling chicken. The thing about you is that you're a hustler.
Starting point is 00:17:45 And if the shit hit the fan and you had to go. I work at McDonald's. If shit hit the fan, I would work at McDonald's, dog. I don't give a fuck, man. You know what? In a couple months, you'd be the manager of the place. And then maybe in a couple years, you'd own one. Because you fucking hustle.
Starting point is 00:18:00 That's right. You had to hustle, Donald. That's what we do. And on that note, 5, 6, 7, 8. Stories about a show we made. About a bunch of docs and nurses and a janitor who loved to hate. I said here's the stories that we all should know. So gather round to hear our, gather round to hear our Scrubs Rewatch show with
Starting point is 00:18:25 Zach and Donald. We're back. We're back with my own private practice. Jay Moore, our guest star.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Jay Moore. Yeah, very funny. Directed by one of our favorite directors, Mark Buckland. I gotta say, Jay Moore,
Starting point is 00:18:42 I haven't seen in a bit. I knew he was a famous, he was a stand-up, right? And I think he may have been on SNL for a season or two. Maybe. Will you look that up for me?
Starting point is 00:18:57 I know that Anthony Michael Hall was on SNL for a season or two, and they kind of look alike. Right. But he's really good in this episode. Dude, he's very good in this episode. He's the perfect example of a guest star that comes on. And I've said this before. It's intimidating. You're coming into a well-oiled machine.
Starting point is 00:19:08 All these people know each other. They've got a zillion inside jokes. Everybody knows it. And you're the only person. And you gotta get out of your head and just show up and be funny because you're the guest star
Starting point is 00:19:18 and it's not time to be like, oh, I'm insecure. It's like you can be insecure all you want in your fucking dressing room. But when you come to set, you got to come to play. And this guy's riffing. He's confident.
Starting point is 00:19:29 You know he made up a lot of that shit. I could just tell from his vibe. He was just kind of making it his. And it's just really, really impressive. It's a great lesson, again, in the spirit of giving actors advice, that you got to hit the ground running if you're a guest star on a show like this. And he does that. Yeah, I remember when we were shooting and thinking, oh guy's so fucking annoying he's always on he's always on he's always on and then you watch the episode and it's perfect look
Starting point is 00:19:54 i get it you know what i mean and then that became kind of my thing when i'm on set now you know what i mean if it's a comedy and i need to keep the comedy going i'm gonna be on for a bit you know what i mean i'm gonna be on the whole time we're working. I don't think I've ever seen you off unless you're woozy. Unless I'm woozy. Right. Unless I'm woozy, I'm always on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:14 Other than being woozy. But this is one of those lessons right there where it was like, all right, like even when we cut, he's joking around with crew. He's joking around with actors. He's, you know, he didn't shut down. You know, at the time I was like, this is so crazy. joking around with crew he's joking around with actors he's you know he didn't shut down you know at the time i was like this is so crazy this is annoying me because it's a joke after a joke after a joke after a joke after a joke and then you watch the episode and he's so good you know what
Starting point is 00:20:35 i mean he's really good at playing that yeah joel said he was on for two years 93 and 95 he's so good at playing that cocky confident guy and And we learned that he slept with Krista. Yeah, with Jordan. Well, not with Krista, but with Jordan. We should say Jordan. We should say Jordan, not Krista. Now, he may have slept with Krista. I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:20:54 It's none of my business. But he definitely slept with Jordan. Bill just turned to Krista like, did you guys? What? Wait, what? Should we get into the recap real quick before we start talking about it? Let's do your recap. I don't have my phone because it died.
Starting point is 00:21:11 So, Daniel, you're going to have to time Donald. I hope you put a smidgen more effort into this one than you did last time. I put some effort into it. This is a tricky episode also, but I did put some effort into it. Ready? Ready and go. Elliot's on top of the world for the first time in our series. Carla's down in the dumps because she's not feeling sexy.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Turk needs competition to get his confidence up. JD has a new friend who's teaching him how to combat his anxieties with cocks. The lessons are effective, but come with a price. Being comfortable with who you are is very important in life. If you can find a way to access said comfortability, you stick with it, as long as you don't disrespect and hurt others. Wow. Not bad. 25.
Starting point is 00:21:55 25. So, wait. Say one part again, you said, about finding a way to be yourself without disrespect. Right before you said disrespecting others, what did you say uh being comfortable with who you are is very important in life if you can find a way to access said comfortability you stick with it right so uh carla found a way to be comfortable again you know what i mean she real she the whole episode she feels like she's not sexy part of it's because she's wearing an engagement ring. Unfortunately for ladies and men out there, once you tell everyone in the world, I'm spoken for via engagement ring, people kind of back off.
Starting point is 00:22:36 You know what I mean? And the ones that don't back off, those are the sleazy scumbags. Do you notice that some women wear engagement rings? Has this ever happened to you when you were single and you see a woman that you have this wearing an engagement ring and you sort of make some offhanded comment like, oh, how long have you been engaged? And they go, oh, I'm not engaged. I just wear this on this finger. And sometimes it's because they don't want to be bothered or hit on. They don't want the attention. Well, that right there is the cue for you to be like, oh, so what's up?
Starting point is 00:23:09 And then other times, though, they've been like, oh, I just like wearing a ring on that finger. And I always thought when that happened, like, why are you doing that? Like, your dream husband might be walking by and think you're cute and then not even talk to you because he sees your ring. If a girl's wearing it, she don't want to be bothered. She don't want to be bothered. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:23:25 Thank you, Joelle. I'll run to my dream husband later. I'm tired. Right. Thank you, Joelle. Oh, guys. Oh, shit. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Wait, something's happening. Sorry. What happened? Interrupting Bill. Oh, God. Here we go. I don't really have a song. Interrupting Bill.
Starting point is 00:23:41 He needs a better song. Oh, yeah. Put a- He needs a much better song Donald oh yeah at the end of that it'll be perfect oh yeah
Starting point is 00:23:50 it's a little annoying to hear that my first interrupting Bill segment was deemed too long not that Donald said he was cool with it Zach you said it was too long it's like a five minute monologue
Starting point is 00:24:00 oh no did I get in the way of you all talking about Silver Spoons and Star Wars I feel I get in the way of you all talking about Silver Spoons and Star Wars? I feel horrible. And by the way, the name of the Jason Bateman spinoff was It's Your Move. Anyways, I got a question. One of the things we did on – I'll be quick.
Starting point is 00:24:18 Okay. One of the things we often did on Scrubs, when we were in later seasons, we would look back at the earlier seasons to see if we could kind of continue jokes. And we did a joke with Carla that no one saw her as attractive now that she had – in this episode, now that she had an engagement ring on. And later on, when we brought a guest star on the show to be a love interest of J.D.'s, we wanted to imply that she had always been at the hospital, but J.D. had just never noticed her. Do you know who that guest star was and how this joke with Carla relates? We set it up here. I know who it was.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Donald, who was it? It was Elizabeth Banks' character who J.D. wound up having a baby with later on, if I'm correct. Right. Yes. And I guess she wore an engagement ring the whole time, so nobody paid attention to her, is my guess. How timely. That sounds good. Wow.
Starting point is 00:25:12 You really timed this out well, Dan. You must be good at what you do. All right. Go ahead. What does Bill say? Yeah, Zach. I'm guessing you got it. It was Elizabeth Banks.
Starting point is 00:25:22 No. No. That's fucked up. Because she was wearing a wedding ring. I hope that was quick enough. Whatever. Miss you guys. Now I feel bad.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Miss you. Now I feel bad. I think we hurt his feelings by saying he was going on too much. Dude, you totally hurt Bill Lawrence's feelings, man. I don't want to hurt Bill's feelings. I love him. I'm fine with Bill going on and on and on and on it's all right with me and i know the fans love it so we'll just let him go long all
Starting point is 00:25:49 right yeah just let him go bill you can go long i'm sorry you can even do the five six seven eight let me tell you something right now that was probably the sneakiest five six seven eight five six i'm not doing it okay I'm not doing it anymore I'm not somebody to amuse you that just comes and does the numbers so we'll think of a new gag today it's just 5, 6 7, 8
Starting point is 00:26:16 7 7 oh my god, come on now people are like He's definitely doing it But the joke is going to be That I'm not I don't believe it
Starting point is 00:26:33 I somehow don't believe it Is there more tape? 8, 5, 6, 7, 8 5, 6, 7, 8 5, 6, 7, 8 Don't scream Music riffs panel Don't stop it
Starting point is 00:26:41 Make it a long one It's the last one ever I promise Turn it off No don't turn it off Let it play Music riffs, Daniel. Don't stop at making a long one. It's the last one I've read. Turn it off, Daniel. No, don't turn it off. Let it play. Let it play for the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:26:52 That was the whole thing. Let it play. All right. All right, listen. I got to say something. Bill is experiencing something as a writer he's never experienced, and that is that he has a hit catchphrase, and he doesn't want to give it up. I don't think he should give it up as long as it's sneaky and funny it works
Starting point is 00:27:09 he finally in his career uh as a writer probably never imagined he'd have his own what you're talking about willis and he finally has one and he keeps trying to be cool guy about it being like nah i'm not gonna do it anymore i'm over it but he can't give it up it's like crack rock he why would right well shit i've never tried crack but i hear that's one of the most addicting things in the world do you know do you know what else is addicting having a catchphrase that shit is that it's almost as add, listen, that's what I'm talking about has traveled with me from scrubs to pretty much everything else that I've done in life. Once I heard that people like that's what I'm talking about, I said that shit over and over again. Eagle, another one.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Eagle's gone on forever and ever and ever. You can't not post Eagle once a year. I bet Jaleel White is not saying, did I do that to anybody these days. If they pay his ass a lot of money, I bet you he'd be like, did I do that? He'd be like, how much did I do that? How much for that? I told you,
Starting point is 00:28:15 when Once His Name was on Good Times, J.J. Walker, he was like, I'll do the show, but Dino might cost more. A lot more. And I understand that. He's like, it's my the show, but Dino might cost more, a lot more. And I understand that. He's like, it's my catchphrase. I'm going to run with it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I bet you if Gary Coleman, if somebody said, when God rest his soul, to the late, great Gary Coleman. Rest in peace. Rest in peace. Rest in peace, baby. If somebody said, Gary, we need to what you talking about, Willis, at this point, or what you talking about somebody at this point, he'd be like, that's going to cost extra. Of course.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Of course. Get that money. Make that money. Make that money. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. I bet you, Mike, if you had Mike Jackson on a song, rest his soul.
Starting point is 00:28:55 If you had, rest in peace, if you had Mike Jackson on a song, Michael Jackson on a song, and he said, ee-hee, or Shimon, I bet you that costs more money. I gave you a Shimon. I gave you a Shimon. You don't have to pay another $10,000. Yeah, well, I bet a lot of producers, I mean, I'm not saying DJ Khaled or Puffy because they're obviously very successful, but
Starting point is 00:29:14 I bet there's other producers who have little catchphrases who, like, really didn't do anything else but come on and be like, it's me. I'm the producer. You know, their little catchphrase. Whatever their catchphrase is. Well, whatever the equivalent of another one is.
Starting point is 00:29:31 Right. If you were right. Or take that, take that, take it, take it. Puppy for the longest was like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:29:38 major key. Puppy for the longest was like, can't stop. Won't stop. Can't stop. Won't stop. I thought I told you that we won't stop. I thought I told you that we won't stop. I thought I told you that we won't stop.
Starting point is 00:29:49 I thought I told you that we won't stop. Uh-uh, uh-uh. The fact that Zach knows that, people, is a big deal. You know, because I was PA-ing. Ask him how he knows it. Ask him how he knows it. I know it because I was PA-ing.
Starting point is 00:30:00 I was PA-ing on all those music videos. I PA-ed on a lot of rap videos in 90, in the, in 90, in like, let's say, 95 to 99. Wow. When all that shit was going down. I don't think I ever worked on a Hype Williams video, but I worked on a lot of videos. I wanted to work on a Hype Williams video
Starting point is 00:30:18 because he was the cool guy. Well, Hype, come on, man. Hype had the... Whoever was the cinematographer for Hype Williams videos, it was one of the reasons why Hype, come on, man. Hype had the... Whoever was the cinematographer for Hype Williams' videos, it was one of the reasons why Hype was so dope. I wonder why Hype disappeared. Yeah, Hype had like a monopoly. Along with a woman named...
Starting point is 00:30:36 You know who I worked on? A woman who did a lot of them, too. Her name is Diane Martell. And I worked on a bunch of her videos. She did a lot of videos. Well, they don't make music videos anymore. Well, they do, but not like they used to. Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:30:50 Not with the budget. They used to. They did the Drunken Love music video on the beach with Beyonce and Jay. Who did that? That was Hype Williams. But that ain't a Hype Williams video, though. That's like somebody was like, Hype, we don't have that budget. Just take the video camera and let's go.
Starting point is 00:31:04 No, the Hype Williams signature was the wide-angle lens in the tunnel with the fluorescent tubes going down the whole tunnel and everyone coming up into the wide-angle lens and being in the face. Did you ever see Belly? No. He directed that. Belly is a Hype Williams-directed movie. Visually, that shit is amazing.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Visually, holy shit, Belly is a classic. Visually. I bet he directed, is it worth it? Let me work it. I'll put your thing down, baby, and reverse it. It's a year from the beginning. Dewell, will you look up who directed that video? I bet that was Hype Williams because that was his style.
Starting point is 00:31:45 And if it wasn't Hype Williams, it's someone who took on his style. If you ever get the chance, watch Belly, okay? That shit visually is one of the dopest movies, especially hood movies, that you will ever see. Hood movies, that shit is fire. And when I say hood movies, I mean urban, I mean black, I mean fucking about drugs, and fucking...
Starting point is 00:32:09 That's what I mean. I'm saying that shit was straight for the hood. You know what I mean? I've been in a couple... Hood classics, I've been in a bunch of them. By the way, I just was remembering, Joelle, you were saying that there was a lot of women out there who were like the early precursors to songs like the WAP song.
Starting point is 00:32:28 And it just made me think of that song. She's like, if you've got a bit, I mean, a lot of it's bleeped, but she's like, she's saying a lot of crazy shit. That WAP song, that WAP song is fire, dude. I'm sorry, man. And that video, I love it. You keep listening to it? It's not that I keep listening. It's not that I keep listening to it.
Starting point is 00:32:43 It's just that I keep visualizing the video from that shit dude that shit it's really her oh you like the visuals dude come on come on man name one person that doesn't like the video other than other than all the republicans that are out there fucking saying that this shit is not good for kids where she really i gotta ask this and then we'll get back to the show. But did they really mention freaking Cardi B at the Republic National Convention? Did her name really come up? Cardi.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Cardi. Oh, Cardi. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about, yo. My catchphrase is in effect for that. That's what I'm talking about. She ruffled somephrase is in effect for that. That's what I'm talking about. She ruffled some feathers. Good.
Starting point is 00:33:27 All right, let's talk about basketball. The show opens with us playing 137. I go, how the hell did we lose? We have Chet. And Chet's like eight feet tall. And he's like, sorry, man. And I'm like, Chet, you suck. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:42 No, I don't know there's that many times. There's only a handful of times JD is playing basketball. I don't think it's um we play a lot actually really we play a lot actually yeah because you're all we always need a fourth okay sorry dave myers was also i don't mean to to minimize dave myers contribution he was also a huge music video director he directed work it which if you haven't seen you should go out. It's a really cool video for Missy Elliott's song, Work It. Missy had some great videos. Now, Aloma gets into dunking. I think I remember there being a stunt double because I know Aloma wasn't doing all that.
Starting point is 00:34:16 Right. And she's like doing some crazy- Well, she's definitely doing the dribbling part. For a second, but then there's a cut to her legs and some woman's doing like through the leg stuff and then some woman hits a trampoline and does like a major dunk that's not a loma it could be um and then she lands and she goes y'all got hockey yeah you know i'm gonna be honest with you go ahead there aren't a lot of black people who play hockey in the nhl right now it's growing but are there more than are there more than two yeah absolutely more than two there's more than a handful there's more than 10 um joelle's on it my brother my brother played hockey we grew up in
Starting point is 00:35:00 hell's kitchen new york and that's a big hockey part of Manhattan. Would he play street hockey, like on rollerblades? He would play on rollerblades, and he would play ice hockey. Shout out to all the cats from 52nd Street, you know, cats that live in 747, Clinton, that whole area. These cats all played hockey. A lot of them were white, but there were a lot of black kids that played hockey too because of our neighborhood. Rollerblades would have been a really horrible stock
Starting point is 00:35:30 to be involved with because they've just completely disappeared from the world. They're making a comeback. They did? They're currently making a comeback. You see a lot of the IG roller girls. It's a lot of girls at skate parks pulling mad cool stunts or looking fly as hell.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Yeah, I was about to say, I think skateboarding really took a... Skateboarding was popular, and then it died down, and now it's made such a huge comeback. Skateboarding is so huge now. Yeah, but not rollerblading, dude. Remember, rollerblades were everywhere. Everyone had rollerblades. I think when people i think i think now you can't find anybody right i think when people took a break from skateboarding they got into rollerblades and then that kind of went away also because it was like all right i i don't know man i feel like you could be in such good shape if you're a good rollerblader you know what i mean and maybe they were getting hit by cars
Starting point is 00:36:23 or something like that i don't know what it is you know what I mean that's not it that's not it like I'm looking at it like this if you roll I grew up in a city in Manhattan right and everybody in the early 90s was rollerblading everybody they made a movie about it a dude I went to high
Starting point is 00:36:40 school with was the star of the movie Seth Green and Jack Black they were in the movie what's the movie the star of the movie. Seth Green and Jack Black, they were in the movie. What's the movie called? Rollerblade the movie? Maybe. Some shit like that. Rollerbuddies. Blades. Right. Something. You're not talking about Brink, are you?
Starting point is 00:36:56 Is Jack Black in Brink? Well, no, but it's like the most famous rollerblading movie. The major TV Disney movie. It's the one at the end. Airborne. That's what it is. Airborne. Yeah movie it's the one airborne that's what it is yeah it's the one at the end of the movie they go down a hill as a rollerblade race or something rollerblades became so popular they made a rollerblading movie i went to high school with the star of that movie dude and he would rollerblade all around from school like when when
Starting point is 00:37:22 the movie came out i was like it's only only perfect that Shane's in this movie because this dude used to rollerblade all the time when we were in school. That's all he did. Anyway, my point is it got really hot and then all of a sudden I think skateboarding made a comeback, man. Tony Hawk
Starting point is 00:37:39 and the Jackass guys and all that shit. I think that became way more popular again and rollerblading had to take a backseat. Yeah that shit, I think that became way more popular again. And rollerblading had to take a backseat. Yeah. Well, I just am surprised that they're completely gone. Like, if you walk down the street, you just will not see anyone. And it was so, when I went to Northwestern, there were so many on the campus, so many people doing it.
Starting point is 00:37:59 And they probably all had great legs, too. Like, their calves were probably like, wow, look at that fucker's calves. Now you would do a double take if you saw someone. You know, yeah. I just think it's bizarre when something becomes that popular. And then for no reason. It's not like it became, like, no longer a good mode of transportation, no longer good exercise. It just disappeared entirely.
Starting point is 00:38:20 But here's the thing about the hockey thing. Some of the best hockey players obviously have always been white right some of the best basketball players in the history of basketball were white also you know what i mean so to say y'all have hockey is kind of bullshit because the nba regardless of how you may look at like for an for an African-American male to get out of the hood, you got to. And if it's not through education, it's through sports. And so football and basketball, yes, are a very good way to make it. Right. But there's a bunch of people that don't make it.
Starting point is 00:38:58 Right. White dudes play basketball, too. One of the best basketball players in the league right now is luka donchik and he's not even from america you know what i mean and he's white i can't say that about hockey i can't say oh one of the top five hockey players in the league is black you'll never you can't say that shit because it's not true you know well i can tell you you from my own personal knowledge, not reading Joelle's message, that 3% of NHL is non-white and there are 26 black players in the NHL. I wouldn't have thought it was that high. So you were right, Donald.
Starting point is 00:39:36 It's increasing at least. Let's move on. Okay. Let's talk about how Sarah is unable to talk about her poos in front of her boyfriend, Nurse Flowers. She says that she calls it a twosie in front of him. And in front of patients, when I admonish her for being a doctor, she says that she says dookie. Right. Let me ask you a question.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Yeah. Right. Let me ask you a question. Yeah. How long did it take before your girlfriend was willing to do key in the same house? I mean, in the same area. I don't like to not just, just, just not talk about it. You know, I don't, I mean, it's a don't ask, don't tell situation. It's implied sometimes.
Starting point is 00:40:20 It's like, I'm going to go have some private time. Right. Now I know you're married. So you're like, she's like brushing her teeth and you're taking a dump well i'm brushing my teeth and she's taking me do you remember that in that scrubs episode that actually is funny and i think this was my joke is that uh you and judy are in the bathtub taking a romantic bath and then the camera pulls back to reveal that I'm on the toilet pooing. And I'm like, sorry about the Tuesday guys.
Starting point is 00:40:49 And I sprayed. I have no recollection of that, but that's hilarious. The joke was somehow that we have to all live together and you guys are getting over it. And like the music is shows like candles lit and shit. And then the camera dollies back to reveal me in the foreground on the just flushing going sorry about the twos you guys that is hilarious dude that is let's talk about how uh elliot is like on top of the world this is the first time we've ever seen her character so happy man yeah like
Starting point is 00:41:23 she's feeling happy never this happy and she has a moment where she falls back into it where you know carla says something about not being sexy and elliot thinks she's talking about herself talking about her but this is it's a refreshing moment you know what i mean like it's really good to see uh elliot having having a good time in life. Her patients love her. She's happily in a relationship. The one thing that she has a problem with is taking a crap and pissing when he's around. She can't pee in front of him?
Starting point is 00:41:56 I thought it was just pooping. Well, she makes him turn up the music when she's going pee because she doesn't want him to hear the urine splashing in the toilet. Yeah, I understand that. I understand that too. I do worry when everyone's around if my poo can be heard. So I'll go on my phone and play some Taylor Swift or something
Starting point is 00:42:16 just to blast it out so no one can hear any action in the toilet. I don't mind a healthy stream. I'm going to be honest with you. If I'm going pee and it's a healthy stream. I'm going to be honest with you. If I'm going pee and it's a healthy stream, I want everybody to hear it. I'm talking about plops. I'm talking about kerplumps.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Like, Dan, put a kerplump sound effect here. I'm talking about that. No, no, no, please, Dan, no. No, just a kerplump. Fuck you, Zach. No way, dude. No, do nobody want to hear. That's gross, man. No, I will not turn my...
Starting point is 00:42:47 I'm not talking about a fart noise. I'm talking about the kerplump into the water. That is disgusting. Let's move on. All right. I'm sorry, fans. You'll just have to imagine your own kerplump sound effect, I guess. Gross.
Starting point is 00:43:04 What's your favorite expression for pooping? Taking a shit. Mine's growing a tail. So unfortunate. I don't like that at all. Oh, wow. You're welcome, America. I've never heard that one either. Wow. Welcome, America. I've never heard that one either.
Starting point is 00:43:28 Wow. You're welcome. That is so fucking gross. That was worth the price of admission. Oh, my God. Now, Sarah does a very sexy dance. Sorry to spin things 180 degrees. A transition.
Starting point is 00:43:41 Yeah, what a transition. That's how you know I'm a professional broadcaster, Joelle. From growing a tail to a sexy dance zach braff's transitions rock so this man has narcolepsy and it's triggered by being turned on which i have to believe must be a real thing and um sarah wants to prove that she can turn him on and she goes in there and she's really flirting with him. And then she goes all out and bends over and sticks her tush in his face. That was something that we used to play though. We used to do that on set. Oops, I dropped something. And Sarah obviously was the queen of oops, I dropped something.
Starting point is 00:44:19 And this was oops, I dropped something in the show. Yes. I think it's safe to say that Sarah is skilled at playing oops, I dropped something. Oops, I Dropped Something in the show. Yes, I think it's safe to say that Sarah is skilled at playing Oops, I Dropped Something. Oops, I Dropped Something is one of my favorite games ever that we've ever come up with while making the show. Because dudes could do it too. I would do Oops, I Dropped Something also.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Oops, I Dropped Something. With my ass, are you kidding me? Oops, I Dropped Something is amazing. People got to get out of the way when you Oops, or Drop Something, because they're like look out When Donald plays Oops I Dropped Something you hear beep beep beep
Starting point is 00:44:53 because that shit's coming in the air Oops I Dropped Something People have to get out of the way Speaking of Cardi B and Oops I Dropped Something that WAP video is amazing Again you're Something, that WAP video is amazing. Again, you're bringing up the WAP video. Wow.
Starting point is 00:45:09 There's a lot of Oops I Dropped Something in that video, dude. I only watched it once. I didn't want to get caught watching it multiple times. I can't get in trouble for watching a fucking video, dude. Get out of here, dude. I'm married. Look, if you're married and you're in a relationship, anybody out there, everyone out there, and I want to take a poll on this. Is it wrong to watch a music video of a bunch of women dancing provocatively if you're married?
Starting point is 00:45:33 Is that wrong? I think not once, and I think the second time you can go, baby, how crazy is this? But I think if she comes in the room and you're like, and sees that like you're on your 20th time some women might be like bro chill with the fucking WAP video but it's not like any of these dudes can get with Cardi B or Meg Thee Stallion hold up it's not like Meg Thee Stallion and Cardi B
Starting point is 00:45:57 are giving back you know what I mean if I'm looking at Cardi B and Meg Thee Stallion and the other fine young ladies in this music video. It's not like they're looking at me saying, oh, yeah, I want me some Donald Faison. You know what I mean? And my wife knows that shit.
Starting point is 00:46:14 I told you guys this. My wife tells me all the time, motherfucker, they don't want you. They don't want you. Even when I'm looking my best. Even when I've worked out for six months straight and the abs are on fleek, my wife's like, they don't want you. Oh,
Starting point is 00:46:32 she's just trying to, she's trying to get in your head. By the way, I have to say, I don't know. They don't want me. They don't want me. I'm married.
Starting point is 00:46:39 If I was Cardi B, I would put my WAP all over you. Oh my God. Oh my God. I just, oh my, I would put my WAP all over you. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I just... Oh, my goodness gracious. You would be covered in WAP. It would be raining WAP.
Starting point is 00:46:57 Oh, my gosh. Oh, my God. I need to take a shower now. Do we need to take a break now. Yeah. Golly. Joelle, do we need to take a break? Let's go to break. Let's go to break. We'll be right back. Oh my word.
Starting point is 00:47:11 You look like a- I do declare. I do, right. Then I do declare. You know when a newborn calf comes out and it's all wet and the mom has to lick it up? Oh my gosh. That's what you'd look like. That's that whop.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Oh no. That's that whop. That's what you'd look like after I was done with you.

James where are you calling from sir Cleveland Ohio Well One of my favorite cities Cleveland Ohio I love the food He's going to ask you about restaurants I'm not going to ask about restaurants We've already had conversations about the restaurants
Starting point is 00:51:36 But dude have you been to Slimans No You've never been to Slimans And you're from Cleveland Maybe you're from Cleveland? Maybe you're saying it wrong, Donald Maybe it's something else Did we lose James? Jamie, are you still there?
Starting point is 00:51:55 By the way, while he works out his tech problems We skipped something that's very crucial In this episode when I say Thanks a latte to Jay Moore Thanks a latte Thanks a latte. Thanks a latte. And then you didn't get the joke. My character didn't get the joke.
Starting point is 00:52:11 And also, we spoke about how poorly some people hold coffee cups when they're supposed to be full in television shows. And I want to apologize. This was horrible. I'm holding it with two fingers, and it looks like there's nothing in there at all. Yeah. So I apologize to the fans for horrible coffee acting. this was horrible. I'm holding it with two fingers and it looks like there's nothing in there at all. So I apologize to the fans for horrible coffee acting. James, are you
Starting point is 00:52:30 back? I'm back. Right on. So you're in Cleveland and you haven't had Slimans? Well, you were saying Simons before. No, I said Slime with an L. Slimans. I didn't hear the L. I thought you were saying Simons. Have you had Slimans before? I've had it. I haven't gone there L. I thought you were saying Simons. Have you had Simons before?
Starting point is 00:52:46 I've had it. I haven't gone there. My wife has gone there and brought me food from there. That's the biggest sandwich I've ever had in my life. It's so delicious. You're kind of like Homer Simpson, Donald. You like dream of old sandwiches you had. Not only do I dream of old sandwiches I have, I love donuts.
Starting point is 00:53:03 Speaking of donuts, everybody keeps asking me about the donut machine. Yeah, you returned the machine? I returned it. I returned the donut machine because that shit was way too big, and that would have taken a lot of oil, one, to freaking make these donuts. So I apologize to everybody who had dreams of me doing Donnie's Donuts and stuff like that. One guy even made you like a branding situation. I could not do it. I'm sorry. I
Starting point is 00:53:26 apologize to everyone. James, I am sorry. I apologize. Could you have put your new hobby of fried chicken, could you have put that in the donut machine and just maybe that would have helped you make all the chicken you want to make? When I look back at it now, that probably would have been a great idea, but I don't know how long. It's like the Krispy Kreme conveyor belt. So it goes through, and it's all timed out perfectly. So no, I probably could have, but I don't know how cooked the chicken would have been. It's not about the donut machine.
Starting point is 00:53:57 It's not about the donut machine. Have you gone on the internet and looked up how much a commercial deep fryer is yet? Be honest. I'm going to be honest with you because that chicken was so good. Yes, I have. I knew it. I know you. Not only that, not only that, but Ooni reached out to me.
Starting point is 00:54:18 Shut up. Yeah, they did after they saw the pizza that I posted. And we're in conversation right now. So shout out to Ooni pizza ovens. We're going to talk about you guys for a hot second because yes, absolutely. I want the pro. Yeah. By the way,
Starting point is 00:54:35 I'm going to shout out Ooni myself and we don't, they are not sponsored by us. We get no kickback, but we can both tell you that this is a really cool thing. By the way, you can't get one right now because they're so back ordered. But you could probably get one by Christmas. It's a great present.
Starting point is 00:54:49 They're not that crazy expensive for what it is. I think they might be like $300, $400, but it's an outdoor pizza oven. You can either connect it to a propane tank, or you can do it with wood and charcoal if you want. But this is like made me and Flo's summer. I mean, she just started getting so into it. And then we got all our friends into it and we like,
Starting point is 00:55:11 Donald's now obsessed. So definitely it's a great Christmas present. If you can get in now before they're, before they're all sold out, because I imagine it'll be impossible to get one for Christmas, but if you can get one, good friends at Uni, we're not going to keep giving you free promotion unless you step up production.
Starting point is 00:55:28 I think they're made in Sweden or Switzerland or something. I don't know, but it was delicious. Look, man, it's one of the best home cooking products that I have. Yeah, it's a lot of fun. We're not talking about all of that stuff right now. We're here with James. Yes, James. James, if the good people at Ooni really would step it up, we could
Starting point is 00:55:45 be doing shit like, and James, for being a great caller, we're sending you an Ooni pizza oven for your backyard. I'm just happy to be on the podcast with you guys. I did not think this was going to happen for me. You didn't think it was going to happen? You didn't see it like a shit? You don't got a whiteboard?
Starting point is 00:56:01 Jamie has written in every single day for, I want to say, like three months. Wow. You've been persistent. All right. Good, Jamie. I started July 1st is when I caught up to the most current podcast, and that's when I started. And it was just one email for the first two days, and then it turned into two emails a day, and then it just kind of got out of control.
Starting point is 00:56:21 I went back and counted. It's totaled 166 emails since July 1st. Wow. What was the bad guy's name in Romancing the Stone that was chasing after Joan Wilder and Michael Douglas' character? I'm looking it up. I crack up every time because he was so persistent, right?
Starting point is 00:56:41 And even the dude who has the mule, the drug dealer who has the mule, the drug dealer who has the mule and is driving the mule jefe, the car, it's like a Bronco or some shit like that, and he looks back, he goes, wow, this guy is very persistent. That's you, Jamie!
Starting point is 00:56:57 That's you! I tweeted all three of you a video where I do a JD thinking in his head thing about me never getting on the podcast. Oh, my gosh. Wow. Well, you know what? Listen, to all our listeners out there who have aspirations of dreams and dreams of being on Fake Doctors Real Friends, take Jamie's.
Starting point is 00:57:20 Oh, poor Joelle. Joelle's. Yeah. Take Jamie's advice. Go hard. Go hard at Joelle, and she might let something slip through. That's all I'm saying. You know, the real lesson is however hard you thought you were going at something,
Starting point is 00:57:38 somebody else was going harder, Donald. There it is. There it is. There it is. You know what I'm saying? That person is James. Yes. Oh, grass. There it is. There it is. You know what I'm saying? That person is James Pogras! Okay, James. That is quite an intro.
Starting point is 00:57:50 What is your question? You've been very persistent. I hope that you have one after all this time. I do. I actually wanted to try and get the turd to my JD on here. His name is Ben, but he's at work. He couldn't show up, so I have a question from me and one from him.
Starting point is 00:58:08 But I wanted to ask if you guys could do a quick shout out to my brother-in-law, Mike, and my best friend, Ben, because they would have also loved to have been on here. Mike, Ben, Jamie wanted us to shout you out, so we're going to do it. Yeah. I don't know your last name. Don't worry about it. So any Mike and Ben out there can take this as a shout out obviously
Starting point is 00:58:27 this is to all the Mikes and Bens out there listen if your name is Mike or Ben I love you no wait wait Zach I love them more so this could be your own personal ringtone
Starting point is 00:58:43 Mike, Ben, I love you. I love you more. Okay. All right. Now go ahead, James. Can I ask us a question? The one that I had was, uh, uh, every time I watched the point where JD finally admits that he put the quarter in the door at the end of that exchange, I feel like there, that there was, uh, at the beginnings of a friendship between him and the janitor rather than them still being enemies and i wondered if if if um neil flynn was up to it if you guys would
Starting point is 00:59:13 actually record just sometime after that that point jd and the janitor just getting along and getting into trouble together because i feel like um rather than trying to get jd in trouble the janitor would still do his crazy stuff but now he would invite him along for it well here's the thing after season eight neil got another show and went on to do a television a very big popular television show called the middle and there was a moment in season nine the first episode where he came back for one episode uh to in the whole jd janitor thing where he's like he comes to work and he's like so where's jd and i'm like he's gone he doesn't work here anymore and the janitor's like well you know what then i'm not working here anymore. That's pretty much the joke.
Starting point is 01:00:05 And he leaves. And so there was closure. I like to think that that would have happened too. I think the janitor and JD do become friends. I have something for you, James, that's going to help you out with your fantasy. And that is that when I was promoting Alex Inc., one of the most popular shows to ever go,
Starting point is 01:00:23 only 10 episodes ever, Neil was kind enough. Did you guys get 10? Yeah, we did 10. Nice. 10 magical episodes. One of the most popular episodes, one of the most popular shows ever to get 10.
Starting point is 01:00:36 Yeah, I think it is. If you look at the Guinness Book of World Records, it's the show that only went 10 episodes that was the most popular in the most amount of people's hearts. Yeah. Those people didn't necessarily watch the show, but they were rooting for it in their hearts. Well, you know what the most popular show to ever get 12 episodes was, right? That thing you did in Jersey.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Emergence. Emergence was one of those shows that, I'm going to tell you something right now, ABC knew they had gold. It's just the people didn't. A lot of shows get cancelled that are good. I'm not saying, I'm joking about Alex Inc. I don't think that it was fully working, but
Starting point is 01:01:16 there's plenty of shows I like, and I'm sure lots of listeners that are like, why did you cancel that? I mean, and I'm not saying Scrubs, because we did nine years, depending on what you believe. But I'm talking about shows that go like two or three seasons and they're done. But I wanted to say that when I was promoting the show,
Starting point is 01:01:33 James, Neil was kind enough to do some promotional stuff for me because we knew the fans would love it. And we did one of those things where we tell dad jokes to each other and we try and make each other laugh um so it's on youtube you can go check it out it's like neil and i sitting across from each other um obviously not in character as jd and the janitor and we're trading dad jokes and the idea
Starting point is 01:01:57 is like they're so bad sometimes you just have to laugh because you're so stupid and and we're trying like you're trying not to laugh at the dad joke. Yeah. I've seen a bunch of those. I don't know how I missed the one with you. Well, you go check it out. If you,
Starting point is 01:02:09 yeah. If you go look up that he was nice enough to do that with me. So that's sort of like the one example I can think of right now of like me and Neil being friends in real life. I really like Neil a lot. He's, he's such a wonderful, funny man.
Starting point is 01:02:24 I just, our paths don't cross a ton in IRL as the kids say. I also wanted to tell you about, uh, about a year and a half ago, I was going to the doctor's office. I had to go into the hospital to get some, uh, and some papers and on my way in there happened to be a, uh, a janitor working there and he was pulling rocks out of the track for the door because it had gotten
Starting point is 01:02:45 stuck and um i just i couldn't help myself i i at first i went inside and i said if he's still gonna come out i'm gonna do it he was still there and so i i went ahead and said maybe somebody put a penny in there and um i don't know that he got the reference but he did look at look at me like he wanted to kill me and i felt felt like that was still the perfect response. I'm so bummed that that guy didn't know the door joke. How could you be a janitor at a hospital fixing the track of an electric door and not know that joke? I mean, I just feel like that should come with the job. I did it because when I was in college,
Starting point is 01:03:22 my teacher stopped class early and said someone had to go to a coronation. And in my head, I thought I should stand up and sing the song from Frozen where she gets up and says, It's coronation day. And I didn't do it. And my wife has never forgiven me for not taking that opportunity because I'll never get it again. That would have been amazing. Every time I get a chance to reference a show, whether or not I think people would do it. Who would know we owned a thousand plates?
Starting point is 01:03:51 But I failed. All right. James, do you have another question for us? Yeah. My best friend Ben asked why Dr. Acula wasn't more fleshed out because he thought it was, it was really awesome. And he would have loved to see more episodes that centered around that because,
Starting point is 01:04:08 you know, Dr. Cox actually kind of liked it. And, you know, the janitor knew about it and stuff. You know, it really is a fan favorite,
Starting point is 01:04:14 James. It's something that Donald and I get asked all the time. When, when are you guys going to make Dr. Acula? I, one day, I don't know if I had had jazz lettuce or what,
Starting point is 01:04:23 but I wrote like an elaborate paragraph to Bill Lawrence about like a funny take on what a Scrubs movie would be. And it included a section on incorporating Donald and I making Dr. Acula. I can tell you that people really loved it. So if we ever do a Scrubs movie or thing, I think we have to find a way that it's a part of it. Right, Donald? I think I truly believe that the Scrubs movie or thing, I think we have to find a way that it's a part of it. Right, Donald? Definitely. I truly believe that the Scrubs movie should just be Dr. Acula,
Starting point is 01:04:50 where it has all of the characters from Scrubs portraying characters in Dr. Acula. Obviously, Dr. I think that would be amazing. The question is, who's Dr. Acula? Is it going to be JD or is it going to be Turk?
Starting point is 01:05:03 Right. Speaking of retro shows, James, Zach, Joel, Danil, have you guys watched Cobra Kai? No, that's the Karate Kid show. Danil, I'm surprised that you- Danil, you haven't watched Cobra Kai? Danil, you seem like a retro kind of fella. Oh, thank you.
Starting point is 01:05:21 I was too busy playing video games. I did watch Dave, though. Did you like Dave? I loved Dave. Dave is so good, thank you. I was too busy playing video games. I did watch Dave, though. Did you like Dave? I loved Dave. Dave is so good, you guys. If you get a chance and you want to feel nostalgia,
Starting point is 01:05:36 Cobra Kai is so much fun. It's just as fun as the Karate Kid, the original Karate Kid. If you get a chance, all of the stars are in it too. Please check out Cobra Kai.
Starting point is 01:05:50 Is Elizabeth Shue in it? They're teasing that she might show up for season three. Not only did she go to my high school, but she was one of my early crushes. Like, I mean, Elizabeth Shue and Karate Kid. My wife looks like Elizabeth Shue, dude. She was everybody's crush. Well, then I had a crush on Casey Cobb when I was a child.
Starting point is 01:06:08 Do you know who else was my crush when I was a kid? Do you know who else was my crush? Whatchamacallit's sister. The one that's married to Ryan Reynolds. Blake Lively. Her older sister. What, she's an actress? Yes.
Starting point is 01:06:22 When I was a kid, that was one of my biggest crushes. We're going to need her name because I don't know that I know her work. Is it Inez or Betty? The redhead. Oh, boy. Hold on. Now she's got to go look for what she looked like when she was young. Come on, Donald.
Starting point is 01:06:36 You're making Joelle do all the work. I don't know her name. All I knew her was. What show was she on? How did you know her? She was like in a bunch of things. She was always like the a bunch of things. She was,
Starting point is 01:06:45 she was, she was always like the guest star on things. Never really the star of it, but she was my, oh my God. Like I would have dreams about her. Bring a little optimism into your life with the bright side, a new kind of daily podcast from hello sunshine hosted by me,

The Rewatch Show with Zach and Donald. Speaking of Ryan Reynolds, we're trying to get Ryan Reynolds to come on for the finale. I know people have asked for it. Donald and I love him, but we're not day-to-day friends with him.
Starting point is 01:09:53 So if anyone's listening and knows Ryan Reynolds, tell him to come on the podcast. I have a really embarrassing Ryan Reynolds story, too. Oh, God. Maybe he's not going to come on because you did something embarrassing because you're bad with celebrities. Dude, I'm so bad with celebrities. Oh, no. What did you do, Ryan Reynolds? Do you want to hear this story, James?
Starting point is 01:10:09 Yes. Of course James wants to hear it. So one night, Zach takes me out to this swanky Hollywood party, right? It was Jeffrey Katzenberg's party, as a matter of fact. And I remember we get there, and George Clooney makes a joke to Zach. He goes, I don't bring Noah Wally to to these parties why are you bringing why are you bringing donald fayette that's a good joke and i was like and i remember thinking i you're like i'm no noah wiley sir no i love noah wiley noah wiley is a a very good actor but i remember thinking
Starting point is 01:10:40 that was kind of rude anyway we're in a party and i managed to by the way no while he is a great actor i didn't mean to i was just doing a joke i think no doubt i remember getting so fucking drunk at this party oh boy like i felt like i felt like somebody might have even slipped me something so that's yeah right you fucking slipped yourself something then so that's my excuse i think somebody was trying to get at me and trying to and trying to do something what did you do to ryan reynolds this is crucial if we'll come on the show he's talking to a bunch of people right he's talking to like three other people and i come up to him i'm like ryan oh no and he looks at me he goes oh god donald and i go ryan give me a hug oh no he's like i don't want to hug donald no i'm not gonna give you a hug. He's like, I don't want to hug Donald. No, I'm not going to give you a hug.
Starting point is 01:11:25 I was like, Ryan, give me a fucking hug. He's like, no, I'm not going to hug you. I was like, then I'm going to take it. And I grabbed Ryan Reynolds and I start humping his leg like a dog. Oh, my God. He's not coming on the fucking show. He'll never come on the show, dude. He's not going to come on the show.
Starting point is 01:11:41 You did the thing that dogs do to people. I started humping on his leg and then I pushed him away and i was like i'm through and i walk away oh my god why didn't you tell me this and then he looks at the people that he's talking to like you know sorry oh god oh my god and then i realized in my drunken stupor at that moment i'm like oh shit i just made an ass out of myself oh Oh, my God. And I walked away and stuff like that. You really got to pace yourself when you're at parties, Donald. I can't help it.
Starting point is 01:12:10 I get excited when I see people who I admire. Ryan, you're one of them. And also because I've known you for a really long time. All right, listen. Ryan, I don't know that you're listening. Maybe you're Ryan's best friend From high school and you love the podcast Tell him that Donald is sorry For drunkenly humping his leg at a party
Starting point is 01:12:31 I'm so apologizing I apologize And the fans would love it if you'd come on For the season finale of season two Which is coming upon us Another season soon, Joel James, do you want to say something To get Ryan on here?
Starting point is 01:12:45 Yeah, James, is there anything you could you want to say something to get Ryan on here? James? Yeah, James, is there anything you could say? I imagine you're a Ryan fan. Anything you have that could maybe lure him back into the fold? I was surprised when I caught him doing, I can't remember the name of the game, but it's similar to Candy Crush. That's an app.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Just a simple game you can play. You don't have to pay for it to play it. And I thought, what's he doing doing little app commercials like this? I feel like if he can do that, then why he could do the podcast because that's way below what you guys are. It's just a little, it's like a candy crush type game. Yeah, but they probably
Starting point is 01:13:15 paid him so much money. See, they're probably paying him silly money. We can't pay him silly money. We can just pay him with love. But you could pay him silly money. James, I don't know. Maybe that would silly money. James, I don't know. Maybe that would work out. James, I don't know if you know this, but Ryan Reynolds just made a crap ton of money selling booze.
Starting point is 01:13:32 Yes, he made a lot of money selling booze. But I'll tell you what, we can promise you, Ryan, a signed Turk Funko Pop. Yeah, and if you are nostalgic and want to go back and remember that moment When I humped your leg
Starting point is 01:13:46 You could use the Turk Funko Pop as me And just let it Or we could buy a Deadpool Funko Pop And then take the Turk Funko Pop And make it hump it Just saying I'll dedicate to watching every single one of his movies From this point forward
Starting point is 01:14:03 Oh there you go I think that's pretty good Thunderous applause Dan I'll dedicate to watching every single one of his movies from this point forward. Oh, there you go. There you go, Ryan. I think that's pretty good. There it is. Ryan, thunderous applause, Dan. Thunderous applause. There it is. James is going to watch every one of your movies, even Green Lantern.
Starting point is 01:14:13 Ryan, James has promised to watch every movie you've ever done. And if you come on the podcast. And Donald is sorry for the leg situation. I'm sorry for humping your leg. You didn't finish. You didn't finish, did you, Donald? No, I didn't. Well, I did say after,
Starting point is 01:14:32 I'm finished with you and pushed him away. Oh, no. Oh, this is not going well. I wish you would have told me the story because I've been trying through back channels, through agents and publicists to no avail. And for all I know, he's going, Donald Faison, the guy who tried to bump my knee at a party? No.
Starting point is 01:14:51 Oh, God. So embarrassed. All right. Well, James, we're going to segue with this theme song that Daniel's going to play to a new segment called Fix Your Life. And I hope you have something where Donald and I can fix your life because we're very good at this. It's America's favorite segment on any podcast ever. I just read that online. James, it's time to fix your life!
Starting point is 01:15:16 All right, James, what do you got for us? All right. I was trying to think of it last night because I forgot all about it until I was in bed and unable to sleep because I got the email and was freaking out. But I guess I'll bring up the fact that my three-year-old son has decided that pooping is just not for him anymore. And so he's just not going to do it. And so it's literally every three days we have to have him on like a laxative regimen. every three days, we have to have him on like a laxative regimen. And then the doctors have told us to give him these little baby enemas, which is a very horrible experience for everyone involved.
Starting point is 01:15:55 And I wondered if you guys had any advice that you could give on a better way to try and encourage him. I will say this, you know, a better way to try and encourage him. I will say this, you know, as a father who has experienced moments like this, where a child has decided, you know what?
Starting point is 01:16:11 I don't want to poo anymore. You got to make it exciting. Okay. And figure out a way to make going to the bathroom, not a chore, but something fun. Like when I was a kid i hated to brush my teeth and my you know parents figured out a way to make it so that i would want to brush my teeth
Starting point is 01:16:34 and they got me an electric toothbrush and it was you know you know it's darth vader toothbrush so now i'm brushing my teeth pretending i'm Darth Vader and stuff like that. My advice to you is to figure out a way to make going to the bathroom a game, whether it be, and I'm sure your pediatrician probably told you this, maybe there's rewards for every time. I used to, I would do anything for stickers when I was a kid. Right. Maybe there's a reward for every time you go to the bathroom and poo. Like you get his favorite. But I totally, I totally,
Starting point is 01:17:08 I totally understand because kids get crazy like that. And all kidding aside, they do get crazy like that. And there's a moment in time when they're like, I don't want to do this anymore.
Starting point is 01:17:19 But if you can figure out a way to make it so that it's a game and that it's fun and that it only works when they're in the bathroom the only time you can play the game is when you're in the bathroom and you're sitting on the toilet maybe things will turn around i gotta tell you that i loved stickers and if you when i was a kid and i still love stickers by the way but when i was a kid if you
Starting point is 01:17:38 got if you find out whatever his favorite thing to watch is you can probably get a sticker for that on the on the interwebs and and just be like every time you poop you get one of these oh and look at this amazing one i know you want you don't get it until you poop and then you um and then and you put the stickers on a chart also if it and it's crazy because nobody wants to ever be like you know i have to bribe my kid to go to the bathroom but if it adds up to something you know what i mean like a certain amount of stickers equals an ice cream trip or a certain amount of stickers equals whatever it is uh he likes i think you might find a little bit of success in that um take it from me i've had
Starting point is 01:18:21 plenty of children i uh and a few of them have had this dilemma and so So you're not alone James, Donald's many children have refused to poop over the years and we have a new term for it that I'm not sure you were on the call for It's also very natural and so don't think
Starting point is 01:18:40 of it as you know this is a you know this is a problem. Because eventually you won't have to deal with this anymore. Yes, and we have a new term for it too, James. It's called growing a tail. So you can tell him, come on, buddy, time to grow a tail. Anyway, James, you're welcome.
Starting point is 01:19:02 We just fixed your life. Yeah, you're welcome. Thunders applause. I'm going to try those. I didn't even think about them. Well, that's why we're here. Sincerely, in all honesty, that is a real thing that you can try. Make it a game.
Starting point is 01:19:17 Make it an experience that is fun because it's stressful to have to know it's it's it's stressful to have to poo especially when you're a child and he could be afraid of the toilet he could be afraid of what comes out of the toilet i don't know i'm not a doctor in real life i'm a fake doctor but i'd like to have it's stressful to poo donald faze on on a mug well adults know this too any adult knows this it's stressful to poo if you don't poo I don't think it's stressful to poo It's nice to poo Absolutely Dude if you don't poo
Starting point is 01:19:47 In one or two days You're fucking stressed out Like why am I not pooing How come I'm not pooing It's a stressful situation We should probably get off poo Because there's probably Some people eating a salad
Starting point is 01:19:57 Right now James we gotta go But thank you so much I'm glad you finally Broke Joelle down And got on the show Can I tell you one more thing before we go? Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:20:07 Yes. Because this is the big thing that the email that was responded to that got me on here. First of all, I owe it to my wife that I even ever watched Scrubs because I didn't. I was younger when it came out. So I didn't watch it as it came out. She watched it when I was at work. And she showed me the guy I love song one day. And so it was me and my best friend. and that's what hooked me on to it and then I've been watching
Starting point is 01:20:28 it on repeat ever since but my father passed away in 2017 from stomach cancer and at that point I had seen the series through once and I'd watched it halfway through but then when his complications got worse I stopped watching TV and I stopped doing anything fun. I just was trying to pay attention to what was going on with him and, and hope that it was going to get better. And it was like around six months after he passed, I started watching the show again to try and feel normal again. I was having a really bad day when I got to the last episode.
Starting point is 01:21:01 I consider the Zach watching the last uh fantasy the last episode and whatever happens after that it's just a weird fever dream of some sort but um uh he i was watching that and for some reason um i i was i was really depressed i couldn't get myself to just do what i had to do you know for my my family my kids i i just kept thinking about him and i didn't want to um function like i didn't even I didn't even want that feeling. And for some reason, as soon as JD said, it's never good to live in the past too long, it hit me a lot harder for some reason. And it actually started to break me out of it.
Starting point is 01:21:36 And then when I listened to the Book of Love and watched that scene, I just thought like my dad had told me before he passed to live my life and to find a way to be okay with what's happening and then let him go and all that stuff and that was the moment i was able to do that because it was like i've i've always been a dreamer like that where i would i kind of imagine what my life would be and so watching that scene again um brought me back to that part of me and i was able to to pull myself out of the depression and and i owe it to that show because of that especially that moment really just became so much more powerful and ever since
Starting point is 01:22:09 that I've just kept watching it on repeat over and over again just like getting ready for that moment again and it feels better every time I I see it um like I love it so much I dedicated all three of my kids have a song dedicated specifically to them and my son got the book of love as his song as a result well i love you guys you guys are great this is ridiculous james we love you for saying that you gave me you gave me you gave me full body goosebumps james i'm still waiting to wake up yesterday morning and realize no this is real oh no this is real dude but in all but in all seriousness james that means a lot to us you know we did this whenever we do anything donald and i our hope is that uh you know whether

Elliot finally meets the janitor which is thrilling and he pretends he's a very nice guy yeah he does not want elliot to know now his crush hasn't really developed yet he develops a bit of a thing for her i think this this is the beginning of it this is the beginning um and she doesn't call him janitor yet not yet that's so funny when she calls him janitor.
Starting point is 01:27:25 Um, now I, on scrubs wiki, they said there's some misinformation about Ms. Pac-Man, um, in this game. Um,
Starting point is 01:27:32 first of all, uh, someone claims that, Oh, I think it was, uh, Kelso claims he got 41 million points. That's not possible.
Starting point is 01:27:41 The top score ever on Ms. Pac-Man was 999,990. I believe it was done by an AI Microsoft computer. And then it turns over after that. It goes back to zero after that. And then also Ms. Pac-Man does not store initials. So you could never have known that it was Dr. K. Well, it's Pac-Man.
Starting point is 01:28:04 It's not Ms. Pac-Man. It is Ms. Pac-Man. Oh, is it? Yeah, Rob talks about doing something. Yeah, how crazy is it that Todd wants to fuck Ms. Pac-Man? Yeah, Todd is turned on by anything and everything, including Ms. Pac-Man. Yeah. The one thing that doesn't turn Todd on is a married woman, though.
Starting point is 01:28:22 He says, eat those dots you naughty girl oh my god that's what Rob says to that's what the Todd says Rob doesn't say that shit well Rob probably does too but that's what the Todd says that is a funny bit though when uh when Carla's got her engagement ring finger on every time she puts it on he's like just talking he goes he's just you know doctor business takes it off and he starts being totally inappropriate totally inappropriate yeah and then he he likes he literally she has it off and he goes boobies and she puts it on he goes charts once again rob machio very funny yeah rob's funny in this uh there's a moment at 14 15 when the when the elevator kelso's banging on the on the elevator door in a flashback. And when it opens, that's a lot of our crew. John Inwood, our cinematographer, is in there. Andy, our gaffer, Sean, our key grip, Paul Padrera, our first AD, and Bobby Forrester, our dolly grip. I don't know if no one called for background performers that day, but our crew filled the elevator.
Starting point is 01:29:27 That's awesome. This wasn't my first time on a golf course, but this was my first time hitting a golf ball and doing what I wanted it to do in real life. And this isn't where I got bit by the bug, but I remember thinking when you and I and Josh went to play golf that one time at Bill's birthday party in the snow, but I remember thinking when you and I and Josh went to play golf that one time at Bill's birthday party in the snow, which was freaking amazing. I remember thinking, oh,
Starting point is 01:29:51 I know how to hit a golf ball because I did it once. And this was the episode that I did it. And I remember when watching this thinking, wow, that's really cool. Second, why did security want to kick me off of the golf course? Like, why am I all of a sudden a riffraff? Why did the black security guard come up to the other black person and be like, hold up now. You're not supposed to be here. The black security guy rolls up to the only black guy on the course
Starting point is 01:30:20 and is like, are you supposed to be here? And then Kelso to fuck with you is like, no. then he tackles you i think he tackles me him and his other uh cohort tackle me where did you where was that course was that wits it i don't know that was not wits it i don't know what course that was that would be great if scrubs wiki knew but you know scrubs wiki didn't have that he don't want to do it don't diss him he's he's a nice guy he's just he doesn't know judy is uh sexy as fuck in this episode when she standing over a dude and it's trying very sexual yeah trying to put the uh the the the energy out there for him to pass out so he'll pass out yeah so his narcolepsy will kick in she's very sexy in that moment and the fact that he's
Starting point is 01:31:06 like you remind me of my sister yeah is hilarious and then her thing is i'm not your sister and then he passes out and then she uses turks she uses turks catchphrase now that's what i'm talking about um yeah that was funny and then at the end, it ends with the janitor Claiming that the boy next to him is his son And that I've embarrassed him in front of his son Yeah We quickly learn that that's not his son It's a random child standing in the hallway
Starting point is 01:31:36 But so begins the janitor Pretending to be a nice person in front of Elliot The lie that he's a nice man Just so he could maybe one day In hopes, marry her to be a nice person in front of Elliot. The lie that he's a nice man. Just so he could maybe one day in hopes marry her. That would have been a better ending to me. She should have ended up with the janitor. That would be hilarious.
Starting point is 01:31:55 No. That would have been, oh my God. First of all, all the fans of the show would be like, what the fuck? What the fuck? Well, fans want two things they want to be they want to be uh they want to be surprised but they also want what they want you know right that's always the thing with the with the will there won't they thing people are like i don't don't do that everyone does that and then they're like why didn't you do that right yeah i'm gonna just put it out there
Starting point is 01:32:21 and it's a star wars reference but that's the whole thing that happened with the last three movies. Everybody was like, I'm so sick of the traditional Star Wars. Why are we having the traditional Star Wars? And then Rian Johnson puts out The Last Jedi. And everybody's like, wait a second, man. You've gone off course. Why aren't you doing the traditional Star Wars? Everybody's like, wait a second, man.
Starting point is 01:32:42 You've gone off course. Why aren't you doing the traditional Star Wars? And then JJ comes back and tries to give everybody a traditional Star Wars type. And everybody's like, oh, my God, you ruined it. Why didn't you stick to what it was? Why didn't we stick to what we established? And so just putting it out there. It's hard to please everybody, Donald.
Starting point is 01:33:03 It is impossible to please everyone. If you're out there listening, just know something. It's very hard to please everybody, Donald. It is impossible to please everyone.

Starting point is 01:33:25 Oh, my God. Robin, if you're listening, could you ask your brother-in-law to please forgive Donald? Yeah, forgive me. Come on the podcast. I'm humping his leg.

It would be great to reconnect with him. the television show together back in the day, I believe he played a foreign exchange student.
