Starting point is 00:02:28 I'm afraid to ever say anything to you again. No, no, no. I'm so sorry. You should never be afraid of me. Release the fight. A lot of fans want us to release the fight. Fuck that. It's like the Zack Snyder cut.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Release the fight cut. Speaking of the Zack Snyder cut. We can release it in black and white speaking of the zach snyder cut how was it oh dude it was amazing the fans were incredible and like so gracious and i've never like you know me what i love about fans is like their passion and their drive and then like the sense of community and this is an entire community of people who rallied around something that literally an entire studio was like it's never going to happen and they were like we're gonna we're we will put up billboards we will fly planes like what do we need to do to convince you to do it and then the craziness of the
Starting point is 00:03:18 pandemic happened and they were like i guess you can have it as a treat and i really liked the movie i was i wasn't sure what i was going expect, but I thought it was a lot of fun. It's very polished. And this is a really cool experience to hang out with a bunch of really awesome people. There were some surprises, which I won't spoil if you haven't had a chance to see the red carpet yet. But it was really great. Right on. Well, I'm really happy for you, Joelle.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Thank you, guys. And the movie was good. You liked the movie, you said. Yeah. Yes, I did. Yes, all four hours. Four hours. I was about to say all four hours.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Two minutes and seven seconds of it, I found enjoyable. Wow. Did you solve the query about whether it's in black and white or color? There's two releases. Oh, you can choose. Yes. So you can watch Justice is Gray. That's the black and white version.
Starting point is 00:04:03 And the only difference is the color? Yeah. That I i saw i only got through the first few chapters of the great version although i'm not sure um but i'm pretty sure i'm pretty sure it's the same movie now donald which one will you be selecting i'm watching color man i grew up in the color tv era i remember i had a black and white tv for a really long time and when color came to life it was like those kids when they walked into that room and the Wonka, Willy Wonka chocolate factory, and it was full of candy. And this was a crap TV.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Like we found it in the, in the, in the garbage compactor room. And my dad was like, I think it's a color TV. And we were like, okay. And he plugged it in and it took like five minutes to finally turn.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Yeah, it did. But finally, I got to watch Voltron, and I was very surprised at how close I was to the color pattern of Voltron's lions. I knew the colors were red, yellow, blue, green, and black, but I didn't know which was which. I didn't know which hand was green or right and so i would always guess and when i got the color tv finally i was like i was close
Starting point is 00:05:13 i'm surprised you didn't compare it to uh the wizard of oz which i just learned was a cowboy switch i had no clue that when she goes from the sepia tone, black and white, to the, like, full color, that that's a cowboy switch. What do you mean? Yeah. What do you mean? So they painted the house sepia toned, right? They had her stand in open.
Starting point is 00:05:38 You know when she opens the door to her house after she gets caught up in the tornado and then she walks into Oz? So that is shot in color. It's just painted sepia tone. They made a sepia toned dress for the stand-in. They gave her like black and gray makeup. She opens the door, steps off camera, and then Judy Garland steps into camera in the full color dress
Starting point is 00:05:57 and walks out into the real world. That, it blew my mind. I watched it again. Joelle, are you a big Wizard of Oz fan? I love Wizard of Oz. It's like one of the first? I love Wizard of Oz. It's like one of the first movies I can remember watching. Okay, I've been cleaning out my office, and I stumbled across a great present.
Starting point is 00:06:13 I didn't know who to give it to until this moment. What is happening? I have a – Somewhere over the rainbow. I'll let you do it. I'll let you do the – But I'll tell you right now, Apollo Theater, Somewhere Over the Rainbow, has been sung so well and so bad. It goes nowhere.
Starting point is 00:06:32 I totally lost track of what... I heard Apollo Theater and then what? So that song, Somewhere Over the Rainbow, is always sung at Showtime at the Apollo, right? Have you ever watched Showtime at the Apollo? Of course. My classmate Lauren Hill was on long before she was famous and got almost booed off. So when you were talking about your-
Starting point is 00:06:50 The guy almost came and got her with the hook. She made it through. So sad. Your gift that you're about to reveal to everyone reminded me of how many times Somewhere Over the Rainbow is sung at the Apollo showtime at the Apollo. I didn't know it was a go-to. That one. And I am telling you, I'm not going.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Get it? You're the best man I've ever known. There's no way I can ever go. No, no, no, no way. No, no, no, no way. I'm living without you. I'm not living without you. You're not living without you.
Starting point is 00:07:39 I don't want to be free. Oh, God. A time of class. Hit us a mountain. Hey! I don't even know what she says. That's the number. That is a great number.
Starting point is 00:07:52 So you were talking Wizard of Oz. That was quite a non sequitur. You should be. That would be the perfect time to hit the bubbles, man. I did. I hit it twice. You didn't hear it would be the perfect time to hit the bubbles, man. I did. I hit it twice. You didn't hear it because you were talking.
Starting point is 00:08:07 I got all crazy. You didn't. Was it not loud enough, Daniel? You got to turn that off. I heard it. I didn't hear it. You didn't hear it.
Starting point is 00:08:14 It gets gated in Zoom, but it'll be loud enough on the recording. Oh, it gets gated in Zoom, which must be audio speak, but you're going to hear it. It sounds funny. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:08:23 cleaning out my office, emptying those boxes that we all stare at that have never been emptied. And I found someone had gifted me a script of Wizard of Oz signed by many munchkins. Wow. And I don't think that many of them are still with us. Wow. And it might even have some cast members that aren't lunchkins but i feel like it's probably got at least 10 or so cast signatures on it um i finally watched tenant
Starting point is 00:08:51 oh how did you feel um it's very confusing and i had even read some things like what to know before you watch tenant and i just don't think i'm smart enough to fully get the physics of it all. My brother and I have a thesis. It is physics, right, Daniel? Time travel, I don't really understand. I mean, even after reading some primers, I don't fully understand the time travel at all. That having been said, it is incredibly shot,
Starting point is 00:09:21 and it looks like they had infinite amount of money, which they did. And, um, and there's some incredible action, Donald. I think you'd really like the action. It's, it's,
Starting point is 00:09:31 it's, it's huge. I mean, if you just kind of watch it and just don't get obsessed with trying to track the time travel of it all, um, maybe on a second viewing, you'll get more out of it.
Starting point is 00:09:42 But the first viewing was just kind of like, I'm just going to enjoy this and understand and be patient with the fact that I'm not gonna get it all that's the only problem I have with time travel that's the only problem if you're gonna make a time travel movie I don't want to have to think about time travel you know what I mean I don't have to think about theory I don't have to think about any of that i will see tenant however because i do like i do like uh nolan and i do uh i do i i knew uh uh the star this thing when he was a kid you know what i mean his his he introduced himself i think outside of the staples center one night he walked by and he was like my dad's denzel washington and i was like yeah right, right, kid. Yeah, sure, kid. Sure he is.
Starting point is 00:10:26 Right. You know, it's interesting. He really sounds like Denzel at times. He really does. They have the same, similar vocal intonation. That's great. Anyway, I recommend it. And the other thing I would watch that I recommend is a show,
Starting point is 00:10:42 a documentary called Five Came Back is this awesome documentary about the five biggest filmmakers in the world at the time of World War II and how they went over to Europe to make documentaries and films for the government and how it affected their filmmaking. And it's a really, really fascinating documentary
Starting point is 00:11:03 that I saw. I believe it's on Netflix. So there you go. There's my recommendations of the week. I have zero recommendations. I did, however, see that Falcon and the winter soldier final trailer.
Starting point is 00:11:13 I'm going to keep you a hundred with y'all. I thought you watched the, the actual, I wish I, you've probably seen it already. I know it's fire. I know it's fire, but listen,
Starting point is 00:11:23 I'm gonna tell you something right now. If you are in the business of making TV shows with superheroes in it, there's the blueprint right there, y'all. Like freaking Marvel got it on lock, dude. Like how do you, how does anyone compete with the level of special effects? Like how do you do it like what do you do you just gotta say you know what they do their thing and we're just gonna do ours they don't seem to miss does marvel miss have not yet uh the last time i missed is thor 2 well i would say in the early days they missed with the first hulk uh and uh even though it had And even though it had some, even though it had a good tie in,
Starting point is 00:12:07 it wasn't necessarily the right move. Cause they, they started with that movie, right? The Hulk is the movie they start with. And then they go into Iron Man. Am I right? Like Ed Norton,
Starting point is 00:12:17 Ed Norton as the Hulk was, was Ed Norton as the Hulk first. And then Iron Man happened. Isn't that like kind of canonically out of the MCU? Isn't that kind of canonically out of the MCU? No, the Ed Norton Hulk is in the MCU. They use all of... I thought that Mark Ruffalo was the MCU. He's the other one.
Starting point is 00:12:37 It can change, as you've seen in Wild Division. There's only two. Oh, there's two Hulks? There's three in movie form. No, i'm saying in the world of mcu there's only one well there could be more than that it could all be uh which we'll call it uh uh multiverses also anyway my point is they really got it on lock you just got to just say you know what you do what they do what they do i'm gonna do what i do did you watch the behind the scenes thing they just released for one division i did and the fact that these guys were on uh wires and flying in the
Starting point is 00:13:11 street and it was practical was amazing i thought that looked it that's what made it look sort of realistic that they're being pushed and thrown through the air and gliding sort of like peter pan sandy duncan back in the day, Zach, you might understand that. Oh, I do. I wish Sandy Duncan was in the MCU. That's a deep cut. All right,
Starting point is 00:13:34 let's talk about the show. Scrubs five, six, seven, eight. About a show we made about a bunch of doctors and nurses. And again, I know who loved to hate.
Starting point is 00:13:45 I said, here's a story that we all should know. So gather round to hear our, gather round to hear our Scrubs Rewatch Show with Zach and Donald. Very funny episode. The Colin Farrell. The Colin Farrell.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Very wacky episode, too. I know, but I laughed a lot. I laughed quite a bit. I didn't even try and get Colin. I didn't even try. It's all right. I'm tired of being humbled by these giant movie stars who won't come on the show, so I didn't even try. My father would be disappointed.
Starting point is 00:14:20 I didn't make the big ask that I should have asked. So it's quite all right. I thought this was really funny. I laughed a bunch. The first thing that made me laugh is that, Jade, this woman wants to come in the hospital. And she's messed up her foot. But she's got a really weird nose. And she's like, that's not my problem.
Starting point is 00:14:40 My problem is something else. And then I accidentally opened the counter. And the coffee goes flying all over her face, and she's screaming. And I'm like, you know, with the face burns, we can probably admit you now. That wasn't what made me laugh. What made me laugh was when the door slams on your hand, and you go, oh, my me time plans. No, my me time hand. My me time hand, right. My me time hand.
Starting point is 00:15:03 That's what you said. Oh, my me time hand. My me time hand. Right. My me time hand. Ow! My me time hand. I was very silly in this episode. I mean, I feel like I was making shit up left and right. Oh, dude, there's a lot in this episode where my wife and I, we were watching it. Like, yo, Casey's starting to watch Scrubs now. Oh, we finally got her.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Four years, four seasons in. Yeah, she's now starting to watch. But we're watching it, and she was like, oh, my God. Like, I can't believe we're getting away. I said this to myself also. We said a lot of racy things in this episode. I know, me time hand in 2005. But nothing compares to the WAP.
Starting point is 00:15:39 No, not me. It says nothing compares to the WAP performance on the Grammys. Did you catch that? Amazing. I texted Donald. I was like, are your kids watching this? I couldn't believe that that was on CBS at fucking 730 at night or whatever time it was. I don't know that I could show Wilder that.
Starting point is 00:15:56 No, I don't think you should. But I'm just saying that I am the opposite of someone who would complain about something like that. But I, as your kid's godfather, I'm watching this. And I knew you and Casey were watching it. And I'm watching this WAP performance. And I text Donald Casey. I'm like, your kids aren't watching this, are they? No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:16:15 I don't know what Wilder would do if she was watching it at that moment. She would be like, okay, so rocco was playing with the dog this weekend and the dog got a massive erection the lipstick came out the lipstick came out and i never seen rocco jump so much you know he jumped up off the dog like holy shit i broke the dog's penis right something's wrong with the dad something's wrong with the dog so i said Rock, that's the dog's penis. What did he say? He was like, oh, my God, it's so horrifying. It is horrifying. He goes, what is that at the bottom of it?
Starting point is 00:16:57 And I was like, that's the dog's balls. And he was like, why does it look like it's going to explode? Oh, my God. You're like, because it is. And I was like, oh, buddy so casey gets a little uncomfortable and she's like rocco you don't need to be talking about the dog speed and in my mind i'm like let's keep this as innocent as possible for as long as we can i'm gonna go in let's go in so he so i'm like we start talking we start talking i was like so tell me man what, what happened? And he was like, it was like I was playing with him. And out of nowhere, it came out and I got scared.
Starting point is 00:17:30 And I was like, yeah, man. I was like, yeah. I was like, he was like, why did it do that? And I was like, you know, I don't know. To be honest with you, I have no idea why it did that. You know, dogs, that happens sometimes. Dogs do crazy things. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:44 So he goes into the bathroom. He scratched the right spot. He goes into the bathroom and starts brushing his teeth, right? And I'm brushing my teeth. And in the mirror, Rocco goes, oh, my God. And we turn around. And now the dog's humping the bed in front of him. Oh.
Starting point is 00:18:02 And he's like, what the heck is he doing? Why is he doing that? Oh, oh my so you had to address it you can't ignore it i said well what is he doing he's like he's dancing with the thing hey dancing with the bed why is he why is he dirty dancing with the bed no he didn't say dirty dancing he just said dancing dude oh my goodness crazy how did you solve that yeah he's dancing with the motherfucking bed, kid. You're right. That's as far as we...
Starting point is 00:18:28 And was the dog able to finish? Oh no. That's horrible, man. That's horrible. Do we have the willy top? Are you for yourself? For yourself? Is it for yourself?
Starting point is 00:18:43 Zach, I love you. All right, listen. She ain't going to be saying that in real life. My me time hand. My me time hand was very funny. So one of the big themes of the episode is that Carla and Elliot are constantly making plans to do something, but then they never do. I feel like this is a very, don't know if in other places if this is a very popular thing but in los angeles this is very popular everyone's like we gotta do this
Starting point is 00:19:09 we gotta do this oh my god let's do this and then no one ever follows through on anything that's like the last day of a movie when you're done filming a movie and you see and all the actors are saying bye to each other and the crew saying bye we're gonna hang out when we get back to la right you know it man i can't wait to see you I don't even know why we're saying goodbye I'm gonna talk to you tomorrow right nope except for us baby well yeah cause we got season 2
Starting point is 00:19:34 laughing laughing no but I mean even after we finish oh yeah no doubt but like if it wasn't for that summer of me being in New York and you being in New York and the show going another year, that was a pivotal moment for us, dude. That was a very big moment. Bonding in New York City.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Yeah. But I do feel like, I don't know if it's a function of my age or what, but I feel like these characters do when they're excited to make plans and then when the plans are coming up, you're like, oh, wouldn't it be great if they canceled? We wouldn't have to go anywhere. Yeah. That's me all the time. You guys feel that too? That was me at a very young
Starting point is 00:20:18 age too. It's so exciting making the plans, like, let's do this, and then we're gonna do this, and then we can invite them, and then we should go there, and then the day of comes, you're like, oh. And then we're going to do this. And then we can invite them. And then we should go there. And then the day of comes, you're like, oh, I don't want to do all that. It would be lying on the couch. So let me ask you a question. When we make plans and I cancel and you give me shit,
Starting point is 00:20:38 are you just giving me shit to just freaking? No, because sometimes you cancel very often. You and your wife cancel like while i'm on the way to the restaurant i'd never have done that to you yes you have never in my life donald more than anyone i know you and your wife are the king and queen of like sorry guys kids some shit happened we're out and i'm like sitting there being like it's actually going to be a table for one. You can cancel the extra bread. Will I be able to return these two margaritas?
Starting point is 00:21:24 Oh, my God. Yeah. The thing about people with kids is they always blame it on the kids if you don't have kids if you don't have kids it's tough to blame it on anything you can be like oh i don't i'm tired i don't feel good i guess is the go-to but people whenever anybody blames it on whenever anybody blames it on the dog i'm like get the fuck out of here but kids i'm always like yeah okay i understand i understand it's a it's a real having kids i understand how things can you know monkey wrenches can get thrown into the system very easy the funny thing is that bill wrote this um and i bill and chris to do this a lot whenever i'm with them we always are like oh my god and then we
Starting point is 00:22:01 should go here and do you want to guys go up to you guys want to go to big sir and we should do this and we should do that and i'm like i'm just thinking i'm like smiling and talking to her i'm like this shit's never never gonna happen yeah one of my favorite moments in this episode and i was watching this with my wife and i laughed really hard and so did she johnny c uh dr cox to j. When was the last time we kissed? Jordan. About a month ago. Dr. Cox. When was the last time we had sex?
Starting point is 00:22:32 Jordan. Yesterday. If you are married, you know all about this, man. You don't have to kiss to have sex anymore. Oh, my God. Wait, you have your wife every day, Doug? Oh, no, dude. Me and my wife kiss all the time.
Starting point is 00:22:51 I was going to say. But when having sex, sometimes we don't kiss at all when having sex. Do you, like, shake hands? What do you do? Good session. Sometimes it's not even necessary. High five? Good session.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Sometimes it's bam, shower, good night. Okay five. Good session. Sometimes it's sometimes it's bam. Shower. Good night. Okay. It sounds great. Marriage is awesome, dude. Listen, I'm gonna tell you something right now. You can you can hate on that all you want to. But that shit is fire.
Starting point is 00:23:17 Okay. Just putting it out there. Okay. What about when we switch chairs? Because we're JD and Turk are so boring that they don't want to do anything and they the the their big plans for the night are gonna switch that one of them's on the couch and one of them's on a chair and then when i get into the chair i say your ass indentation is so deep it's like i'm sitting in a giant inner tube that felt the most like us i get
Starting point is 00:23:44 it because i have a big ass you're drunk in the trunk indented the chair yeah i get it that felt the most like us i get it because i have a big ass dude you're drunk in the trunk indented this chair yeah i get it that felt the most like us though too even the way you're looking at me when we're talking with the smirk on your face and yeah like that that was very much like it is like how funny is it later when we cut back and we're playing goldfish and you're asleep and i go do you have any sevens and you're asleep and i look and i go you got lots of sleep that was one of the hardest because that felt like very like us i'd be like oh you're sleeping let me see oh you got do you remember that time i passed out on the couch while you guys played poker yes cuddling your dog with your dog yeah do you remember that yeah i remember that you got woozy i got woozy all that hypnotic you who was it
Starting point is 00:24:33 you bill me somebody else anyway i don't know i just know that you got woozy and you used to have a big rottweiler and you were spooning the rottweiler and you were out like a baby like a baby on my baby. We were just sitting in your living room playing poker while you snored. While I snored. You and the dog. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:53 John's in shape, dude. Johnny looks good. He's running down Riverside Drive screaming to the world that he is not going to be a father again. Jordan is not pregnant. It's blue. It's blue. It's blue.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Yeah, he's very, very stoked. So you can reverse your vasectomy. I don't know why you would do that. Let's say a man's wife passes away, and he would like, and then he falls in love years later again and the new wife would like to have children and he wants to make her dreams come true i feel like there's other ways to make dreams come true of course i'm just saying i'm trying to think of a scenario do you guys know any scenarios where someone would reverse their thing but it's doable is my point right i think that's you could change your mind i'm saying if you ever decide to.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Yeah, no. I don't think I will. Let's say Casey leaves you and you and I move in together. And I, of course, want my own children. Donald's your face again. I wish everybody could see Donald's face right now. It's a little bit like Steve Harvey's on family food. By the way,
Starting point is 00:26:14 should I reveal a little bit of more Intel about family food? Yeah. The people want to know Donald, do you know this Intel? That we are going up against Neil Flynn and his improv group? Well, that sort of takes the heat out of my announcement. Take two. No, what's going on, Zach?
Starting point is 00:26:34 Well, I don't really know how to I don't know how much of an alley-oop that was. It was more like you took the ball and dumped it yourself. For fuck's sake, stop talking about your willies. All right, listen. Donald, yeah, we're going to be playing Neil Flynn and his improv group. Daniel, you can save the time it would take you to put in a drum roll because Donald ruined it.
Starting point is 00:27:04 But no, I don't have more details other than, as we know, Neil is an amazing improv comedian, and he's got a troupe, group, whatever you call it, that he works with. And as I understand, they are going to be our opponents for Family Feud. That's amazing. So we know it's going to be funny. And for the fans, you not only have the four of us and Bill on one team, but you've got the Neil Flynn and his hilarious posse on the other.
Starting point is 00:27:32 So we know we're going to laugh our asses off. Yes. I'm a little worried about winning now, though, because Neil is super smart. He's very smart. He's one of those guys that does the New York Times crossword puzzles. He's a crossword puzzle guy. And I just worry. Now, I don't know how much that translates to your ability to guess what 100 random people said to a question,
Starting point is 00:27:50 but he is quick-witted and smart. I'm concerned about winning. It's the wit that worries me because you have to be fast with the wit. I'm scared that I'm going to get up there and they'll be like, we asked 100 people, do you use a washcloth in the shower? Oh, yeah. And you're going to have to be like, were you African-American or Caucasian? I don't think you're allowed to ask qualifying questions.

And we're back! And we're back! So Colin Farrell, I mean, the gag of this episode basically is like, everyone is so attracted to Colin Farrell that his looks and charm wreak havoc across the hospital. Yes.
Starting point is 00:31:56 So much so that my wife is willing to cheat on me. Yes. Sorry. So much so that Turk's wife is willing to cheat on him in front of his face. Yes. And we catch her. And we're both like, baby. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:10 It's very funny. Colin was a lot of fun. I remember. I think he was only there one day, right? Yeah. One or two days. Something like that. But he was in and out.
Starting point is 00:32:21 I think we got him. And he was in and out. I think we got him, and he was super cool. And I think he was on the fence, and we were like, you know, you could give – and the network was going to write him a juicy check. And everyone was like, you know, you could give this to your favorite charity. And he was like, okay. Okay. And so he gave the dope check. They wrote him to his favorite charity.
Starting point is 00:32:41 I remember thinking that was super sweet and Menchie of him. And he was just great. But I remember like, just like in the show, just like in the show, the entire crew was all giddy. I was so, I was,
Starting point is 00:32:56 I wrote that down. I was so excited that he was on the show. I think, I think this is the most I ever fanned out for someone when they came on the show other than Billy Dee Williams. I was about to say other than Billy Dee. Other than Billy Dee Williams. Like this is like – and I don't know what it is about this guy, man. He just has a charisma about him that is very – it's charming and you're charmed easily by him.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Well, he's got everything. He's not only is he very handsome, but he's just, he just exudes charm and confidence. And, you know, if you're attracted to men, you want to sleep with them. If you're not, you want to be his buddy. He's just, he's just one of those guys, you know? Yeah, man. And, and, and good on Bill for writing a, a, you know, this part for him. Now, I'm going to say this. I didn't. This is when I started not reading the scripts.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Oh, great. Because I didn't understand when we were shooting this. I remember shooting and being like, I don't understand what the fuck is going on. And right. And so we're watching it now. And it finally hit me. Oh, shit. He's the dude that knocked out the guy at the bar.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Right. But he doesn't reveal that until the end of the. Oh, you didn't remember because you never read this episode. I had never read the episode. I think, I mean, let's be honest. Let's keep it real. As you say, I don't think you were reading the scripts for many seasons thus far. This is, no, this is when it started.
Starting point is 00:34:19 This is around the time it started. Oh, really? So before season four, you took the time to actually read. When I got divorced is when I started getting divorced and everything was when i started not necessarily focusing on the scripts anymore and started focusing on yeah me and all of that stuff um and so that's that's honestly what happened um so that i know that it was about three seasons in i just remember whispering to you sometimes i'm like um this is what's happening this is why we're in this is
Starting point is 00:34:51 what's going on and you're like thank you yeah good looking out good looking out yeah sometimes it'd be like donald be like why are we standing on this table i'm like oh because what happened in the previous scene he's like all right thanks yeah but this is around the time that started happening um well this episode has one of the greatest moments in the scrubs history when uh jd fantasizes about an irish brother and we see donald becoming a leprechaun saying top of the mizzle to you my lizards yes lizards my lads oh my lads yeah top of the mizzle to you, my lizzles. Yes. What's lizzles? My lads. Oh, my lads. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Top of the mizzle to you, my lizzles. Yeah. I was trying to be as Irish as you. Do you remember doing that? Yeah, dude. I remember this. I remember this one very much. Oh, yeah, because of Colin.
Starting point is 00:35:37 You remember it. I remember it. Well, I didn't know. I forgot that it was the Colin episode. How appropriate that we're doing this right before St. Patrick's Day, too. Oh, that's right. It's tomorrow. Although this will air on when?
Starting point is 00:35:49 Friday? But we are recording this on the 16th. So, yes, Donald, look at that timing. How appropriate, right? Yeah, well, we planned that. We planned that. That's how it goes. That's how it goes.
Starting point is 00:35:58 Oh, Joelle, did you settle in on the episode we're going to be doing for the live show? Yeah, my quarantine. How appropriate again. Wow. My Quarantine, everybody. Let's look that up on my cheat sheet here. My Quarantine is episode 416. So if you're going to be joining us for the live show, you definitely want to watch 416 My Quarantine, directed by Michael Spiller. J.D. suspects a patient has SARS and gets the staff quarantined in the hospital during his first date with Kylie. You remember Christy Farris, who plays Kylie?
Starting point is 00:36:36 I do. And Turk discovers Carla and Dr. Cox used to date. Dun, dun, dun. Knew that was coming. And Tara Reads back as Danny Sullivan. I remember she's the one who says, quarantinis, anyone? Yes. When the quarantine first happened, people
Starting point is 00:36:51 were sending me that meme of Tara Reade saying, quarantinis. Anyway, so if you're joining us for the live show, that's the episode that we will be discussing. So many good plans happening with that. It'll be a lot of fun. Oh my gosh, it's going to be so much fun. I'm starting'm starting to like i think i should start watching now so i could get this rap right yeah i really need you the audience is really needing you to not phone that one i have a
Starting point is 00:37:16 feeling they're asking for the real deal holy feel so i'm gonna see what i can do yeah you gotta bring it you really set the bar high and um i'm actually excited slash nervous about the big live show i i'm very nervous i'm putting together we're gonna have a rehearsal joelle right where we just go over some of the tech stuff we've got a bunch of surprises we've got a theme song for um for joelle's um dating segment that we're gonna to debut. We do? Who wrote it? A fan. A fan wrote it and it was great and we're going to use it. We got his permission, right?
Starting point is 00:37:52 Yes. He is green-lit it. He is good to go. I'm sure if he wrote a song about Joelle dating and he would want it to be heard but I just want to make sure we have his permission. Yes. We have a musical guest surprise. I think I know who it is. It's not Josh Radin,
Starting point is 00:38:10 but don't tell anyone who it is. I don't know who it is then. But Josh Radin does, and we should end today's episode with his beautiful song, Today, which ends this episode. He does a great job every time he's on this show.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Yes, but he does speak sweetly. He got really upset when I told him that he switches to his radio voice. He was in defense. He got pissed.
Starting point is 00:38:29 What did he say? He was like, I do not. And I was like, yes, you do. You switch to a sort of soft talk. You get real soft
Starting point is 00:38:36 on the mic when you freaking are on the radio. It's his public voice. Even on his Instagram stories, he switches to like, hey, everyone, it's Josh here.
Starting point is 00:38:53 I'm like, who the fuck is this like public radio dj i can't i can't wait to get my hands on your sweaty balls yes i i the second um i'm speaking in front of a lot of people i i switched to this sort of kind voice there's just kindness dripping out of my ears. I think I'll put a tree over here by the window. Yes. And then maybe some flowers. Oh, you're doing Bob Ross? Yeah. Maybe some flowers. You're right.
Starting point is 00:39:11 It's a little Bob Ross-y. It is a little Bob Ross-y. I'm going to sing a song for you guys, and it's going to be about a little squirrel, a little happy squirrel. I never knew how to describe it. That's what it is. It's his Bob Ross shtick.
Starting point is 00:39:26 Yeah. Imagine if Bob Ross is like shooting, doing his painting, and they're like, and that's a cut, Bob. He's like, you motherfuckers. This light was in my face the whole time. Please, God, no. Couldn't see the fucking squirrel. Please, God, no.
Starting point is 00:39:38 God rest his soul. Please, God, no. All right. You grew up on him, obviously. Did you ever try to paint like him? Anybody? No. Anyone?
Starting point is 00:39:47 No, but I tried. I tried watching it. Yeah, I tried a couple of times and that shit doesn't work. First of all, the paint is expensive, so you can't get that. So I tried to do it with like pencils. It doesn't work. Like I could do the birds. The birds were easy.
Starting point is 00:40:01 He makes it look so easy. But like, he's like, I'm going to put a window but like he's like i'm gonna put a window here how the fuck you gonna put a window on that also doesn't he use he doesn't use brushes i mean he used brushes but doesn't he use a lot of like blades yeah his skills unmatched that was so soothing as a as a kid so yeah i loved it it was it was like it was like josh radin talking to you on a podcast it It was so relaxing. So the janitor is busting chops. That's his whole thing.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Busting chops. He's chop busting. Chop busting. And he really is enjoying fucking with everybody. Like when Sarah and Judy are both lying to get out of their hangout they planned, he's like calling them out. Sorry. Chop busting. He does the same thing to dr cox when dr cox uh when dr cox comes wait uh when dr cox lies kelso kelso busts cox with the lie on the
Starting point is 00:40:57 vasectomy right um is it that or the fishing because because uh cox first says that he's going that he caught a marlin. He went fishing instead of saying he had a vasectomy. Right, but then – That's the janitor. And then down in the lobby, Cox, Kelso says, I know that limp. Right. That's a vasectomy.
Starting point is 00:41:17 You got a vasectomy. He lied – right. Cox lies to Carla and the janitor reveals that something changed, that there was something. There's another clue that we're in Los Angeles here even though Bill made great pains to say that we are anywhere USA. And the clue is? But he claims that he went fishing
Starting point is 00:41:36 in San Diego which would be a relatively nearby place to go fishing. But the hours that it took him to get to San Diego seemed a little long. Just putting it out there compared to coming from Los Angeles. I'm just saying it's not in the Midwest. It's not on the East Coast.
Starting point is 00:41:55 He went on a weekend trip to San Diego. But to get to San Diego, it only takes two hours from Los Angeles. It was something like a six. I don't recall what the time. I'm just saying. I'm just saying if you're going to go deep cut, let's go deep cut, dog. I'm just saying occasionally there are little clues
Starting point is 00:42:10 that the show takes place in Los Angeles, much to Bill's chagrin. We also, of course, have the famous one. That is Sarah takes a train to SeaWorld. I don't even know if there is a train to San Diego. Is there? Yeah, absolutely there is a train to san diego is there yeah absolutely there is i have a question was that was that a goal of the show for it to be anywhere usa yes at first it was bill was painting out palm trees and he was doing anything he wanted it to feel like any city usa
Starting point is 00:42:39 there's never it's never it's never specifically said but every once in a while you'll see a palm tree or every once in a while there'll be a thing like someone took the train to SeaWorld. Or Dr. Cox went fishing for the weekend in San Diego. And that's why it was a big deal when several episodes ago, when you do the final scene, when you guys are eating dinner on the balcony, you can see downtown LA, or you can see Santa Monica pretty clearly. And people were like, I think that's Santa Monica right there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:03 I mean, now that you rewatch it, there's clues that it's LA. I mean, you can't hide it if you film it there. That's like filming in Toronto and being like, it's New York. I think in the beginning he was really trying to keep it out of there. Oh, so I laughed out loud when we make him do the Frosted Lucky Charms. They're magically delicious. And I go, I told you he was Irish. Yeah, he's Irish, all right.
Starting point is 00:43:26 And then you go, yeah, he is. We're such fucking idiots. That's our test for if someone's truly Irish. If you can recite the fucking, right, if you know the order of the Lucky Charms. Yeah. We're such idiots. We're like, no, that's like their favorite thing.
Starting point is 00:43:43 They know the Lucky Charms marshmallows. marshmallows blue stars yellow moons green clovers and then i go and then i go we live together not not live together and i do like the ass slap gesture like that was the first time casey goes together right there casey goes oh my god why because i'm doing a gesture. Because you did the ass gesture. And then when you did the nipple one, she was like, oh, my God. I know. That was funny, though.
Starting point is 00:44:11 Didn't you laugh at the nipple one? I laughed out loud. There were a lot of inappropriate moments that I laughed out loud. Well, there's a lot of bisexuality going on in this episode. The Todd is fully standing with all the women. He appreciates Todd. Really livid. And he says, the Todd appreciates hot. Oh, he goes, the Todd appreciates
Starting point is 00:44:32 the Todd appreciates hot regardless of gender. Yeah. All the women are pissed that JD and Turk had Colin Farrell arrested and called the cops. And they're all lined up. And there's Todd in the middle. Let's talk about this cat fight.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Before we get into it, aren't they supposed to do that? Aren't they supposed to? Isn't it their oath as doctors to if there's a felony, if something happens, aren't they? Like, how do you let that go? I guess technically that's what the rule is, that if we find out who hurt this man, who's clearly in the ICU, for God's sakes, we would need to tell the authorities. He's in the ICU unconscious for hours, too. Yeah. On an IV. Right.
Starting point is 00:45:14 He's not in good shape. At all. And when they find out, there's like this moment of, what should we do? Even though JD's already called the cops, and he blames it on Turk, which is fucked up, dude. I'm not going to lie. We got a call from Christopher Turk when the cops show up. Yeah, because I used your name because I said it's easier to hear on the phone. Bullshit.
Starting point is 00:45:43 I know. JD just didn't want to call the cops. He blames it on you. Yeah.shit. I know. J.D. just didn't want to call the cops. He plans on you. Yeah. He plans it on Turk. The cat... Oh. The cat fight was intense. I didn't know that Carla and Elliot got into an all-out cat fight
Starting point is 00:45:58 in one episode. I had forgotten about that also. It was very funny when Todd pauses him. Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Then he puts the chair down and sits. Continue. Everyone thinks he's going to break it up, but he just wants a front row seat.
Starting point is 00:46:14 Right. Because everybody's betting. All the nurses are cheering on. The doctors are cheering on. Everybody's been waiting for this. I wonder if that happens in hospitals. No, I don't think that there's all-out fistfights amongst the staff in hospitals. I bet you it's happened before.
Starting point is 00:46:32 If it's happened. I'm sure, but then the people probably get fired. They're not going back to work. Okay, if it's happened. I don't think you're allowed to have a big fight. If you've had a Cobra Kai type fight in your hospital. Please write in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:50 We know when you're bullshitting. Elliot knows how to fight because her parents have an orchard. Yeah. And she was constantly fighting off apple thieves. Yeah. Apple thieves. That's how Elliot knows how to fight. Right. Yeah, Apple thieves. That's how Elliot knows how to fight. I guess her parents seemed to put her in charge of security for the orchard.
Starting point is 00:47:10 Yeah. At a very young age, too. At a very young age. I just want to talk about something that we haven't talked about the whole show. Jerry the Dead Guy. Yeah, Jerry the Dead Guy. Had me laughing the whole episode, man. Why didn't he come back? First of all, how the hell is this dudeerry the day i walk had me laughing the whole episode man why haven't why didn't he come back first of all how the hell is this dude in the icu dude how is he walking around
Starting point is 00:47:30 icu what i don't know no one no one's keeping him out he's got walking corpse syndrome which i really wonder if that's a real thing i mean i imagine it is since since we base our stories on real things but he he he believes he's dead and he's walking around thinking he's a ghost and everyone's like jerry you're not dead get out of here but every monologue he does is from the ghost's perspective of being dead though so it's not like he's like except for when he talks to colin where he's like i'm dead and the two of them have a conversation that would have been a good recurring character you're right but everything else man was from the point of view of i've been dead for a while and i'm haunting this hospital um yeah i mean yeah how about how funny is it um when uh when we go back to the room and the patient that colin beat up wakes up and then i scream and fall to the
Starting point is 00:48:19 floor that was funny that was very funny you're oh, you think that's funny? You think that's funny? You like scaring people? He's like, yeah. Oh, yeah? Well, you're going to die. Yeah. Yeah. That's so petty of JD. Oh, wait.
Starting point is 00:48:32 I forgot to mention another thing I laughed out loud. When Colin goes, oh, you guys going to be tearing it up? And I go, well, it's less tearing and more folding. Right. Gently folding. Oh, that was funny. We're just going to be on the couch playing Go Fish. No, but we did it at the bar at the end.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Yeah, we did. Yeah, we did. They did it at the bar. I think we should go to break. We got a guest. Okay, our guest is here. We're going to go break. We'll be right back.

Starting point is 00:51:57 Demetrius Daniels! And you're free! Oh my God. They've unlatched. Is that a Batsuit? They've unlatched. Demetrius Daniels, welcome to the program. It seems like you might be in a full Batsuit.
Starting point is 00:52:21 Please explain what's going on. Oh my goodness. It's amazing. Are you a cosplayer? I'm yes uh really just as batman batman's my go-to plus i bought the suit so uh this is the costume for the next few years you look you look incredible and it looks like a really perfect i mean it looks like the suit where did you buy that from? Online. It's called UD Replicas. They do really good work. Is it bulletproof?
Starting point is 00:52:50 Is it bulletproof? So it is made out of Kevlar, but it's originally a motorcycle suit. So it is made out of Kevlar. I understand this. Have you had dreams of putting the mask on and hitting the streets as a vigilante? I do have a bulletproof mask, I will say. Oh my gosh! We have a real life vigilante, but you have not hit the streets yet.
Starting point is 00:53:18 I never even heard of a bulletproof mask. I didn't know that was a thing. I want one just for my regular life. Probably need them now, to be honest. Wow. So wait, Demetrius, do you go to, I mean, obviously not now, but when the world opens up, will you go to Comic-Cons and stuff like that or events? Like, what do you do with a dope-ass Batman suit? So the original plan is I got this um i think like late 2019 and uh at the time i was planning to go to like all the comic cons and whatnot and then 2020 came and oh so you just
Starting point is 00:53:56 wear it around the house you gotta get the mileage that mileage. Well, I'm sure there's going to be. I'm going to pay for the suit. Joelle is probably just as excited as you at the possibility of Comic-Con's returning sometime soon. I'm ready. I think we're all really excited about it. Speaking of Demetrius, are you excited for the Snyder Cut? Oh, God, yes. I'm ready for it. I can tell you're ready for it yeah you're ready as I'm watching it
Starting point is 00:54:29 right on right on now Demetrius have you always been into Batman has he always been your favorite superhero yes it's that you know idea of you know he goes against all these superheroes but like human will will triumph
Starting point is 00:54:44 over anything. That's what's up. Who's the lovely young lady next to you, man? This beautiful young woman here. This is my best friend, future wife, probably. Yeah. Well, there's a lot that I have to get done first before all of that. What do you mean
Starting point is 00:55:05 we'll get to that and fix the life okay now does she cosplay as Alfred how does it work out between you two no but I did have to help him get the suit on so I need a raise alright sir do you have a question for us
Starting point is 00:55:24 yes so in my musical during the like last song when the uh patient is like going under you know we hear the song you're going to be okay that's what's going to happen but then we hear jd say or we hope. And so I'm just like, is that the last thing she heard before she went to surgery? I don't know that she heard it. I think it was trying to say the hospital is optimistic that they're going to be able to operate on this tumor. be able to operate on this tumor um but the chances of her surviving it are you know are up in air it's a 50 50 well yeah we're trying to comfort her i think you know you're gonna be okay you're just like a real dr wood you're gonna be okay you're gonna do great and then i think my understanding of is once she's unconscious like you know to each other we're like we hope you
Starting point is 00:56:23 know right like you you never, one never knows of course. That's how I, like, that's how I originally took it. But the fact that it was still being sung and she could only hear in song, I was like, did she? She did hear it because every, cause she did hear it because everybody goes, shh. Yeah. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:56:42 That's kind of a weird way to end that. I gotta tell you i you just reminded me that i was thinking of the song everything comes down to poo because i have this nutritionist and she said we got to check the poo and um i had never had my poo checked but you have to send you know have you seen those commercials where they send you a box? Yeah, collades. Every time I see those commercials, I'm like, I'm going to fucking poop in a box and send it in the mail. Cut to me pooping in a box and sending it in the mail. You don't poop in a box. You wipe your butt and you send the tissue sample. Oh, I know.
Starting point is 00:57:17 I did the whole thing. No, it was a little gross little plastic spork. It is the grossest thing. I'm not ready for for changing diapers because i had to basically change my own diaper and and then and then my every my friends were asking me about it i was like well here's what i know um check the poo you gotta check the poo whether it's a tumor or a touch of the flu. I'd like to move on. Please won't you pick this awful big fat clue.
Starting point is 00:57:48 Our number one test is your number two. If there's no breeze, light a match please. Everything comes down to. Do do do do do do do do do do. Everything comes down to poo poo. Anyway, so my poo is somewhere via FedEx above the skies right now. My poo is going on an adventure. My poo gets a job more than you do right now.
Starting point is 00:58:16 That's true. My poo is going on a vacation somewhere. Do you remember what the original line was? Like a corally or a letter J. As long as it's a deuce. Yes! They made us cut of calling the poo a letter J. Or a corally. When you look at the shit that made it onto Scrubs,
Starting point is 00:58:39 even now we're talking about the shit that's in this episode. And then the network was finally like, no, we're talking about how the shit that's in this episode. And then you've like let things, the network was finally like, no, we're putting our foot down. You cannot describe a poop as the letter J. Demetrius, do you have another question for us, sir? I do. In all of your careers, what's a project that you look back on and you're like that was a idea or
Starting point is 00:59:11 I probably shouldn't have been that or that you just forgot to do it you know I've I've I've made a purpose now never to uh diss any of the things that i did back in the days uh because i was a part of it and you know it's in the past but um so there's really no i if anything i would want people to go see my missteps and everything like that i think it's fun to watch where people have made you know uh movies that aren't necessarily as good as things that they're known for. I think it's fun to find little projects that people have worked on. So instead of looking back and saying, I don't like that, I encourage people to go watch all of the movies that I've been in. Yeah, I don't want to diss anything specific because when you think about it, there are people that worked on it really hard
Starting point is 01:00:06 and it was their child, their baby. And I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. But I will say that, yeah, there's things that didn't work out. And all you can do like anything in any career path is go, why didn't that work? And do the Monday morning quarterbacking and going, well, what was wrong about that?
Starting point is 01:00:24 And then hopefully use that knowledge to not fall into that trap again go you know what this set of ingredients led up to that thing not working let me try and learn from that and and and do better next time but you're constantly constantly continuing to learn you learn you learn you see the same pattern often like Zach just said it comes up again and again especially in this career where and it's always tempting because it's either there's something a part of it that is
Starting point is 01:00:53 that is alluring you know what I mean whether it be the money or whether it be something that you've always wanted to be a part of or whether it's really interesting and then you take the job and you regret it the whole time and then after it comes out you're embarrassed and you want it to go away i because i said i would do the job i from you know i i decided a long time ago i'll put all the effort forward even if i don't agree with how the well the movie was going to be i will still
Starting point is 01:01:24 push forward and help promote and and do all of those things a lot of people don't do that yeah another thing i'll say is that one mistake i have made repeatedly that i don't want to make anymore is i go i like that person i'm gonna work with them right um meaning i'm basing it solely on liking them socially, which is a mistake I encourage you not to do because you can love someone and they can be incredible and they can be one of your best friends, but they certainly might not be right for the assignment that they are taking on or they might not be the right collaborator
Starting point is 01:02:02 or you guys might not collaborate well in a creative environment. And I've caught myself making that mistake many times going, I like so-and-so. They're fun to be around. Yeah, I'll do the project with them. And then it turns out not to be great. And you go, well, yeah,
Starting point is 01:02:16 because just because you like someone and they're friends with them doesn't mean that you're going to collaborate well together. The signs are always there, but the signs are always there. You just got to be, you know, awake enough to recognize them. You have to base your desire to collaborate
Starting point is 01:02:30 with someone on their work and on their reputation and what other people say about them other than just like, oh, they're cool. That's not smart. Okay. All right, sir. It's time for Gotham's favorite segment.
Starting point is 01:02:47 It's time to fix your life. It's time to fix your life, sir. It's time to fix your life, sir. Would you like us to fix your life, sir? Thank you, Alfred. Thank you, Alfred. So currently, I'm going through a very contentious divorce right now. And it's not so much about the divorce.
Starting point is 01:03:27 It's, you know, when you have those memories pop pop up like there's that joy that's within but now there's that pain of like hurt like I'm never gonna experience this again with that person um and so it's more so when like what's the process that you all have gone through to kind of like move on from that hurt because i don't want it to be five years from now with my new partner um and she thinks i'm still hung up on you know my past how long were you married not long like i got married and divorced in 2020 oh wow i mean that's a that's a story I want to hear from for a whole another podcast. Podcast, right. And do you have any children with that woman?
Starting point is 01:04:13 No, it was a year. A house, but he has that now. Do you have a baby in a year, Donald? If they could have gotten married, gotten pregnant, had a baby, nine months later, then got divorced. It's doable. It's 10 months. It's 10 months. It's ten months. Still less than a year.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Still less than twelve. Let me just do the math. They gotta get married. First. No, you're the one that's... Don't fucking do the freaking bong hit on this shit. You're the one that's freaking spouting bullshit. Oh, he got the sound pad working?
Starting point is 01:04:44 Yeah, he got the sound pad working, man. He's already mad about the bong sound effect. I'm not mad about it, but you're using it for like, you're just using it just to use it, man. That wasn't... Okay, I'm sorry. I'll save my bong noise for more appropriate times. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:05:02 For fuck's sake, just stop talking about your women. I didn't mean to hit Deb. I didn't mean to hit Deb. What are you doing? I meant to hit this one. Do or do not. There is no try. Sorry.
Starting point is 01:05:14 Okay, I'm proud. I haven't labeled. I haven't labeled this. I got a label. Okay? Just give me a chance to label, okay? I like the soundboard i'm gonna i do like that the thing you're trying to get into what is it what is here um demetrius um donald can speak to divorce more accurately than the
Starting point is 01:05:42 rest of us um and okay i will say of course we can relate to bad break accurately than the rest of us. Okay, I will say this. Of course, we can relate to bad breakups, which I'm sure we've all lived through, but divorce is something different. Go ahead, Donald. I don't know about you, but I was very happy not to be married anymore at that time. It was a stressful part of my life. It wasn't a healthy relationship, even though we had children and stuff. It was we were hurting each other by staying together because neither one of us wanted to be there. So when you say even though it turned out to be an ugly divorce, because breakups usually are hard to do, regardless if you want to or you don't want to it's always difficult um
Starting point is 01:06:27 yo look um i was happy so i've never met anyone where i've said to them where you know you hear somebody says somebody always says you you know so how are things with you oh i got a divorce and they go oh i'm sorry to hear about that i've never heard anybody go oh thank you so much because i'm in so much pain if anything i hear oh no no no no it was the right thing to do so if y'all aren't meant to be together then why are you worried about anything that came in the past it was a year in i mean i hate to get all loud with you and everything but i mean it's i i don't see how this should damage the relationship between the two of you because it ended so quick yeah how
Starting point is 01:07:12 happy you are i mean and now you got someone who's really giddy dude you got someone who's willing to sit next to you while you wear a batman suit bro you know what i mean like and help you in the batman suit you know and then zip and zip the shit up, man. Like she's like, honey, don't forget your head armor. Right. So like,
Starting point is 01:07:29 so like, like this past relationship, it's in the past and you're going through it. And I know, I know where you're coming from when you say a lot of things are brought up, but it's brought up because someone's trying to, I'm not saying it's her. I'm not saying it's you, I'm not saying it's you,
Starting point is 01:07:45 but the divorce is a difficult one. If it were easy divorce, if it was just, hey, sign here, I'll sign here, we'll split 50-50, peace out, you wouldn't have any of this, this conversation wouldn't be anything. But because there's so much drama in between on who owns this shit and that shit's mine and this over here belongs to me, you're going to experience this. I'm just going to say this. Go through it. And at the end of the day, you have a very lovely woman next to you who seems to really, really like you.
Starting point is 01:08:16 You know what I mean? And focus on that. Focus on that. Because what's going on right now is going to be negative. It's a breakup. That's how it goes. on that because what's going on right now is going to be negative. It's a breakup. That's how it goes. Focus on the gratitude, man, and being grateful because there's so many people out there going through a divorce who their biggest fear is, oh, I'm going to be alone the rest of my life,
Starting point is 01:08:34 or oh, I fucking got to go back out there and try dating again. And you're so blessed that you have this person that you're crazy about sitting right next to you and can be not only your best your, not only your best friend, but help you through this, this really tricky time. Is there anything that we don't, you don't have to share too much, but is there, is there, is there a reason that it's so contentious? Why, why can't you guys just go yourself? I mean, I assume you have a house to sell and everything. Is there, what's going on making it difficult? She's declared bankruptcy. So there's like a whole other layer um like we were i was planning like i was going to give her the house um like she just had to sign off on a bunch of paperwork she refused to sign it um and like there's a couch that was leased in my name and there's
Starting point is 01:09:23 just a bunch of stuff and now that she's bankruptcy, all of that debt that she's going to be absolved from falls on me. Wow. Wow. Oh, my goodness. That's, yeah, wow. Wow. Well, the plus side, you don't have children. That's a really positive thing.
Starting point is 01:09:39 So, again, try and focus on the gratitude. You have love in your life. You don't have to deal with the pains of navigating this with children. The financial stuff, you know, I know I'm sure anyone listening can hear how smart you are and you'll be able to navigate it. And this too shall pass, as they say. It's not going to be easy, Donald. This is not going to be easy. I can tell you it doesn't, you know, you can't expect that it's all going to get cleaned up right away but
Starting point is 01:10:08 just focus on the positives focus on you know the the new relationship you have focus on your your badass batman suit focus on but also you know focus on not to focus on what went wrong and everything like that but learn the lesson too you know what i mean there are signs uh i don't know how long you guys were together before you decided to get married but you know uh it took me a really long time for it took a really long time for my wife to agree to marry me but i'm so happy she did because now we're, you know, we've been together for a really long time and we have such an amazing family. And, you know, I didn't think after I got divorced I would ever experience this again. And so, you know, you have to and I rushed into a marriage when I was younger.
Starting point is 01:11:02 And so, like, just realize what went wrong. You have to recognize what went wrong so you don't make that mistake again. Yeah, I agree with that. And also, coming from a family of psychologists and family therapists, I would really advise, if you can afford it, you can either do it with someone you find online or using one of the apps that we advertise here to do some like pre-marriage counseling. I use BetterHelp. Oh, great. Great.
Starting point is 01:11:31 BetterHelp is perfect. And, you know, my stepmother is always like, people study. My stepmother is a marriage counselor. And she's like, people study everything that they want to do with their lives. And then they get into a marriage that's a lifelong commitment and they don't have any advice or any education in how to be a couple. And especially since you went through a quick marriage, I can hear my stepmother here saying, you know, take a higher therapist or take a course. There's a zillion things you can do. Just Google like pre-relation, pre-marriage counseling. And so it'll it'll help you guys create a framework for arguing, for how to disagree, how to fight without being cruel. All that stuff that I think since you've had this horrible experience, you can you can go into this new awesome relationship with with a bit of a tool chest.
Starting point is 01:12:20 You know what I'm saying? Definitely. I just I want to shout out to joelle um you are whoa take that didn't do anything i'm sorry i sent my my message like so like early in the morning and she was just so quick like hey can you be on it too and i was like i need to go buy a receipt because today i got my i got my stimmy and then i got on the show it's been a really great day for you demetrius and what was the first part you got your what my stimmy oh they's Timmy.

I think it's next, right, Joelle?
Starting point is 01:16:10 Yeah. Just because we stumbled into the topic of divorce. We're going to have my mom on the show. And then we're going to do an episode with Donald's mom. And we thought not only could our moms come on and talk about just like us as kids and how we got into performing and all that stuff. I think that could be funny, but also our, each of our moms is, has a specialty. My mom is a therapist and has written a new children's book. She's a psychologist and she's written a book that is meant to be read to your children if you're going through a divorce, ages six to 10. And so my mom looked out there,
Starting point is 01:16:47 because this is her field, and she wasn't liking or finding the right book to read to children when you're going through a divorce. And so she wrote one. And so we're going to be talking about that with my mom amongst many other things. So by the way, if you have a child, if you're going through a divorce and you have a child, um, in the six to 10 age range, please reach out to our email and, um, and let you well know, because we might just have you on as a guest. Um, it is what's the main Gmail, Joelle? Uh, scrubs, I heart at gmail.com scrubs. I heart at gmail.com. If you're going through a divorce and dealing with having to tell a child about it, who's roughly six to 10 put in the subject heading divorce.
Starting point is 01:17:32 So Joelle can spot it amongst all the other emails she gets. And maybe we'll have you on. And then Donald's mom is a very big, very successful agent. So after we talk about Donald's childhood and growing up and being a performer, we can also get some advice for all you young actors out there
Starting point is 01:17:48 who are trying to make it happen. Where to go, how to get your stuff seen when you can't get seen by the big agents. My mom knows how to get it done. Yeah, so then we're going to have two mom shows in a row. In a row, we got to see if Shirley's available. We got to see if my mom's available. I don't know if she'll be available.
Starting point is 01:18:04 I mean, I imagine she'd be geeked out of her mind to talk to a bunch of people. Because, you know, if you've ever sat down with my mom, you already know. She's a talker. Well, she's a talker, but she's very funny. Very funny, yes. My mom is going to be great. Maybe you should be on your best behavior. Maybe just go a little bit light on the jazz cabbage.
Starting point is 01:18:25 I'm not going to smoke great. Maybe you should be on your best behavior. Maybe just go a little bit light on the jazz cabbage. I'm not going to smoke a whole blunt. I will just smoke a half. Maybe just rub the blunt under your nose. I think maybe I'll just eat it instead of smoking it. In honor of my mom, don't get too high. I will come through.
Starting point is 01:18:42 I will come through. I will even use the Visine. I promise you. I think my mom knows that you enjoy jazz cabbage. I'm sure she does. All right. Well, you guys can stay on. Stay on because I think we did the whole show, dude. We did the whole show.
Starting point is 01:18:57 Yes, Demetrius. Because I want to give a shout out to my brother, Dominic Daniels. Just love him. He just got married and they're pregnant. Him and his wife. And I would like to showcase this beautiful young woman's art. Yes.
