Starting point is 00:01:52 The CIA really need your help, Gene. Freeze, Americano! Gene, run! Listen to Fodor's Guide to Espionage on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi. Hi, guys. I got to tell you something right now, man. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:02:13 I think this little boy responds to pressure very well. You know how last week we were talking about the coach telling us that, you know, what's up with Rocco? How come he's not, you know, he's not aggressive? Right. We had a little chat with him. Like, hey, bud, you know, you got to just be a little bit more aggressive. He's had practice since then.
Starting point is 00:02:34 And, you know, they played this weekend. The boy scored two goals. Hey, let's go. Nice. And not only two goals, but he was like passing and he was being a real leader just like the coach asked him to be i was very very very very impressed now of course i didn't say shit to him you know but me and my wife are looking at you my wife got emotional at the game she was like he's like a deer he's like a deer like sprinting for the ball just bouncing bounding bong bong bong bong it was very
Starting point is 00:03:07 exciting to see it was great it sounds like he needed to be uh coached for lack of a better term he needed someone to push him and it worked and it absolutely worked i was really impressed and i couldn't i couldn't believe like part of me was like, as a parent, you're always hoping your kid is athletic in some ways and wants to get out and do the sports thing. He's excelling in it, and I didn't think he would. I thought he'd be like, I don't want to do this anymore. I'd rather play video games. But no, he literally enjoys competition. So it's really awesome to see for me.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Joel, how was your party at the beach i was following your insta stories it looked like you had a rager at the beach someone's come out of their covid is like covid hole in the car with all her friends listening to music all of that oh no we saw you i forget people actually watch stories i know i don't watch many people's stories, but I watch your stories. Oh, thank you. It was Danny's birthday, and she was like, she wanted to go to the beach in Malibu, so we did. And it was my first post-COVID outing.
Starting point is 00:04:16 I felt really safe. The restaurant sort of distanced everybody. I got to stare at the ocean, which is like one of my favorite things. It was very lovely. And, of course, car karaoke, which can you never get enough of that? I miss the beach. I'm really excited to, I was daydreaming about going this weekend, but it never happened.
Starting point is 00:04:29 But I'm really excited to go back to the beach. Things are starting to open up again. It's weird. Yeah, it's bizarre. It's happening. I'm having, I feel like I'm one of those people that's having a little of agoraphobia.
Starting point is 00:04:42 I'm like, I dip my toe out. I went to the framer and I'm doing a couple little things, but I don't know. I'm still racing right back to my house and hiding. But it's all right. Listen, here's the thing. Everybody's going to have a little bit of uneasy nerves about going out. We've been in house for a year and a half.
Starting point is 00:05:04 A year and a half. That's, you know, for some of, I should say some of us, Florida, Georgia, different story. But here in California, we've been in the house pretty much for a year and a half and we still haven't, you know, our masks are still on here until June 15th. And so to go out and experience life again, it's a little scary. I'm not going to lie. You take off your mask, you feel naked. I do have a really weird experience when I'm out and I'm fully vaccinated. So according to the rules, I can be out and about without my mask on.
Starting point is 00:05:34 But then I feel like people are looking at me, like not in a store or anything, but when you're walking on the sidewalk, people, I don't want to, I don't know. It just hasn't like, it hasn't translated yet. Zach, I don't know if you know this, but you're braff so if they're looking at you they're like holy shit zach braff no no no well maybe i don't that's not how i perceived it i perceived it as like what the fuck does that guy have his mask on for no no no no they're like holy shit i just came out for the first time, and who do I see? Zach Braff. Did you guys watch my episode of Solos yet? No, I have not. Not yet.
Starting point is 00:06:11 I'm saving it for when I can give it my full attention. Three no's, audience. Three no's from my close friends. Yo, listen. Here's the thing, man. Here's the thing. It's 30 minutes for the record. Okay, but look.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Here's the thing. Everybody is so fucking busy right now. Everybody. And it's not that we're hating on you. Oh, you didn't watch a 30-minute anything on TV so far this weekend? Nothing that I gave my 100% attention to. Not that I could be like, yo, I've got to sit down and I've got to focus on this because I want to freaking put 100% into this. Well, audience members who are probably better friends than these three,
Starting point is 00:06:47 please check it out. If you have Amazon Prime, it's called Solos. It's an anthology series, kind of like Black Mirror where everyone's different, but they all tell a really cool little story. And they're all, for the most part, one actor in a room. And mine was Anne Hathaway. And they liked it so much, they made it the first one and I think it's really cool and I'd love you to see it. Hell yeah. I can't wait to see it. Actually.
Starting point is 00:07:12 I'm very excited. You'll like it, dude. It's up your alley. It's sci-fi. It's very sci-fi. I saw the time travel thing too. Do you want to see a picture of off of my phone from another top secret
Starting point is 00:07:22 project I'm working on? Motherfucker, dude. You might have to bleep something, Danil, if someone responds inappropriately, because this is super top secret, but I just want to show you. This is the most ridiculous shit ever. And who's that next to him?
Starting point is 00:07:36 Get ready to bleep, Danil. I'm gonna freaking choke you out with a freaking knife. But that being said, did you know? Let me show you. This is the last thing, and then I'll move on, since you guys don't watch my fucking shit anyway.
Starting point is 00:07:53 This is me in the Top Secret Project. I've never wanted to kill my best friend ever in my life until right now. Oh, I love you. Maybe my next project that you guys will watch. Huh? Maybe that one you'll check out. I definitely will watch that. Anyway, yo, did you guys know that in 2004,
Starting point is 00:08:11 NBC attempted to make a deal with the Learning Channel to show reruns of our show Scrubs, but the deal fell through? Did you know that? Did you know why? Why? Because TLC didn't want no Scrubs. Hello.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Stop it. Oh my god. Stop it. What an excess of jokes. You had that locked and loaded. That's so stupid. Dad jokes over here. Dad jokes. I'm making this movie with 10 kids and there's a lot of dad jokes flying around and so many
Starting point is 00:08:43 of them are so cringy. How are you, Zachary? I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm working hard and I love it. I love the jobs I'm doing. I'm really happy to be working and the sun is out. It's beautiful in Los Angeles, so I can't complain. I don't have the right to complain about anything. Okay. It is tough, man. It's tough out there in these streets. It is hard out in these streets right now. Like, I was, you know, I get it, man.
Starting point is 00:09:12 You're working real hard. I bet you want a day off to yourself or at least a week off or something like that. I'm not complaining. I'm not complaining. I know you're not complaining. But I'm a little tired. I'm a little tired. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Because I've been working weekends too. But I'm so happy to – you know, I realized how lucky I feel whenever we get to do what we do. You know, there's so much – even without the pandemic, which of course is a giant exclamation point on this thought. But there's so much downtime when you're a creative person who's basically freelance. You know, you're trying to get the job. You're, if it's something you created, you're selling it, you're crossing your fingers, you're lighting a candle, you're, you're, you're in a state of anxiety as you try and launch your thing. So whenever you get to do them, it's so, I just feel so lucky. So that's how I hear you. I heard, you know, uh, I'm not going to say any names, but somebody said to me, I am so excited to have a month to myself.
Starting point is 00:10:06 And I was like, wow, I don't think I've had a month to myself since the podcast started. Like, literally, we started this podcast and shit just started popping off and jumping off. And, you know. What's the difference between a pop off and a jump off? Well, pop off is when you get brolic. Where you're like yo i'm gonna freaking do this right jump off is like this the the jump off is the platform that it happened at you know what i mean so when you pop off you're like you know you're in you know you going hard at it okay
Starting point is 00:10:37 but when you when it's the jump off when it's the jump off this is the platform that it started and this i'm gonna be honest with you, man. Fake Doctors, Real Friends was the jump off, man, for real, for a lot of things this last year and a half. So I just want to shout out Fake Doctors, Real Friends. And with that, I'm going to 5, 6, 7, 8. Stories about a show we made About a bunch of doctors and nurses And a janitor
Starting point is 00:11:05 who loved to hate. I said he's got stories that we all should know. So gather round to hear our gather round to hear our Scrubs Rewatch Show
Starting point is 00:11:17 with Zach and Donald. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. There's been a request, Daniel. Daniel, I need you to, I know this is probably the last thing on your mind, but we need to update the soundboard with some new stuff. Okay. I feel like I'm playing, you're a DJ, I feel like I'm playing yesterday's hits.
Starting point is 00:11:40 And I need to load it with some, the equivalent of what the hot songs are today Dua Lipa and Olivia Rodrigo and whatever it is okay cool there's a couple things you asked for over the past couple weeks that I have saved I need you to come over or at least teach me how to update these because some people don't want to hear but for fuck's sake just stop talking about your willies that's the best one that's a good one we haven't we've stopped talking about your willies. That's a good one. That's the best one. That's a good one, though. We haven't stopped talking about our willies as much, so I don't know. We don't have to use that. But Wu-Tang forever can't go away.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Let's try and – we need a Joelle one in there, you know. Do or do not can't go away. There is no trying. Do or do not. There is no trying. All right. Well, let's get into this episode. 421.
Starting point is 00:12:24 I laughed a lot. So did I. Very good cold open. The cold open, for those of you who don't know, is the thing that opens the show before the credits. And it's meant to grab you and have you make sure you pay attention and don't change the channel back in the old days. But that cold open is packed with some very, very funny stuff the slow motion run in and we don't know why you're running in that was right you dodging people i'm gonna say something and i'm this might be a little controversial controversial uh-oh i always
Starting point is 00:12:57 but we did that we did the sweating thing before key and peel did they kind of bit that off of us well we didn't invent that but but we did it a bunch of times on this show. When did you see it before this? I don't think the hiding a little pipe that... Oh, Airplane. They did it in Airplane. That's one place they did it. Okay, well,
Starting point is 00:13:18 Airplane did it first. But it was funny. We did it second, so you're a biter. By the way, I had... when I was around Jack's age, Jack is getting stitches, and he's not restrained in any way. Maybe they do it that way now. You have kids. I don't know if they've had stitches in their head,
Starting point is 00:13:34 but when I was a child in the late 70s, I had to get stitches, and one of my earliest memories in my chin, I still have the scar, was being strapped to this backboard and my head being strapped. And my mom was so upset about it, but that was what they want. Obviously, they don't want the child to move in any way. And so I was watching this being like, this dude is just sitting here getting stitches in his eye and no one's like restrained him in any way. Were you going crazy when they did it? Were you like, no! I'm sure I was crying and upset because I was really little, but I remember it's, you know, I don't know if? Were you like, no! I'm sure I was crying and upset because I was really little
Starting point is 00:14:06 but I remember I don't know if you when you're that age, there's very flashes of little memories and one of mine is being obviously it was traumatic, being strapped down to this board so they could stitch my chin. What about everyone's
Starting point is 00:14:21 holding their breath and the Todd Yeah, I was going to say that too. I was going to say that too. And I go, the Todd forgot to breathe again. Starting CPR. Like this has happened. We've obviously done CPR on Todd multiple times. I laughed very hard at that.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Todd has some funny assass lines in this. Here's some other stuff. I had no clue that J.D. and Turk – I mean, I remember us going on adventures, but we've gone on some really, really silly adventures, dude. Like, first of all, us with the alarm clock is freaking ridiculous. Ridiculous. And, of course, on Scrubs Wiki, they analyzed it and said our math doesn't work out. Well, you know, hey, Trevor, sorry.
Starting point is 00:15:12 I know, but, I mean, you'd think if you're going to do a joke that elaborate about time, you'd really quadruple quintuple check it to make sure that the time is right, and apparently it's not. I mean, that's a lot of math. I'm going to be honest with you. Well, I mean, but if you wrote the fucking joke like come on get the math right the math apparently is not right what about uh sorry before you get to that that i really laughed at uh the guy with the erection there's a guy so there's a guy who's in the waiting room because he's taken whatever, one of those drugs. Oh, hi, sweetie.
Starting point is 00:15:46 We have a wilder appearance. Say hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Go ahead. He's taken. I'm going to say.
Starting point is 00:15:54 She's heard about. She's heard about. She's never heard about. Well, I'm going to. Now I have to say it in a creative way. She has no clue what you're talking about. He's taken medication that leaves his special area. That's a little dangerous.
Starting point is 00:16:07 How am I supposed to do this then? Ask her to leave. Why don't you go get mommy real quick? Okay. Thank you. He's taken Viagra or something like it to keep his penis hard, but it's lasted more than four hours. So he's gone to seek treatment. Jamal, why are you cracking up so much?
Starting point is 00:16:28 I'm sorry. It's just funny. Why are you like, I don't know how to talk in front of the child. Well, I was trying to tiptoe around how to say it with her in the room. And I'm like, I don't know how to say it with her in the room. It killed me. I'm sorry. And so you can tell that the joke was that he was going to put a baseball hat on his
Starting point is 00:16:41 lap and then stand up and it would be dangling, which is funny. But they cut around it. You notice that like clearly the networks were like, no, the network was not having that. There's no way. Cause it would have been very funny to see said, uh,
Starting point is 00:16:54 joke, but right. The hat just hang right. The hat just hang it there. It sits up and you kind of see it for a split second, but then it, no, no,
Starting point is 00:17:01 that would have been so funny, but clearly the network was like, no, you're not doing that joke. Okay. Yeah. You in the top hat doing your happy face, that's very funny. I laughed at that.
Starting point is 00:17:16 I laughed at that too. And then I go, that's the most ridiculous hat I've ever seen, and I must have it. Yeah. And then we go for a ride. Now, this scooter ride is hilarious. This falls into one of those categories. I'm giving Turk a ride on Sasha to get him because we've gotten the time wrong. He's going to meet Carla because they're on a break, I guess.
Starting point is 00:17:41 They're not on a break. They're not on a – You can't be married and on a break. That doesn't exist. They're not on a – like friends style not on a – You can't be married and on a break. That doesn't exist. They're not on a – like, friends-style break where you can hook up with other people, although we'll get to that. How did that work out for Ross? Right. But anyway, they're on a break – or they're on a timeout. She's living where?
Starting point is 00:17:59 Somewhere. At Elliot's house. At Elliot's house. And so you're riding on the scooter, right? Okay, that's within reason. We're in, right? Okay, that's within reason. We're in our pajamas. Okay, that's within reason. Then we get stuck in a hedge trying to take a shortcut.
Starting point is 00:18:12 And you go, I don't know. First of all, I go, you go, take a right shortcut. I go, you got it, player. And then we go through the hedge and you go, wow. That hedge was thick. That hedge was thick. And then we go through the hedge, and you go, wow. That hedge was thick. That hedge was thick, and then it cuts to me. I'm literally lodged and stuck in the hedge. And I go, oh, really, Turk?
Starting point is 00:18:34 Was it a thick bush? Because there's berries in my ass, right? And then here's one of those things that falls into not a fantasy but is a fantasy. I basically mowed down the motorcycle gang that's mad at you for tipping over their motorcycles. But still with the hedger. I'm wearing like a hedge poncho, right? I have no idea what this thing is.
Starting point is 00:18:57 It's a hedge garment that's been fitted to me, and it's not a fantasy. No. And then not only that, then we get to the we get to the diner because i guess that's where they're meeting is at a diner it's not a restaurant it's a diner for breakfast right and jd sitting at the table with the bikers yeah and are we trying to say all bikers are dumb well i think these particular bikers were not that bright and and i'm the joke appears to be that i'm giving them an etiquette lesson in how to and how to be at a restaurant with their with their manners but he's like he's like chainsaw was thirsty chainsaw thirsty sorry
Starting point is 00:19:40 no his name wasn't chainsaw's warlord i Warlord, I think. Warlord. Still, same shit. Same shit. He goes, Warlord, I told you to sip it. And he goes, Warlord, I go, use your words. And then I remember improv-ing this. I go, napkin on your lap, Satan's valet. I don't know where Satan's valet came from, but there it is. Very odd biker name, too. I'm just going to be honest with you. He was Satan's valet came from, but there it is. That's a very odd biker name, too. I'm just going to be honest
Starting point is 00:20:06 with you. He was Satan's valet. But what about when you go, when you're trying to smooth talk Carl, and you go, and I thought maybe we could have relations of an intimate nature. And then she goes, how can I trust you if I can't trust you? Some shit like that.
Starting point is 00:20:24 And my head hurts. I looked at this, I was like, I I trust you if I can't trust you? Some shit like that. And my head hurts. I looked at this. I was like, I remembered these lines. I can't believe I was able to remember these lines. I had the same reaction, dude. Whenever you have an intricate line, I'm like, how did Donald do that? That must have taken a lot of takes. Right? Same shit.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I was like, wow, the fact that this is a one-er and I'm remembering this is amazing to me right now. Maybe you thought of it like a lyric because it did have the vibe of a lyric. Maybe. I don't know. Oh, my God. What about when someone says – Elliot says, what's it like to have an erection for nine hours? And Todd goes, ask me in 20 minutes. And Cox says, you know, makes every male in the cafeteria admit that they've tried Viagra for recreational purposes.
Starting point is 00:21:17 We should get into this conversation. This is a conversation that should be had. Have you tried it for recreational purposes? I think everybody has tried Viagra. If you're a male, I'm pretty sure you were like, let's see what it does. Viagra or what's the other one? Cialis. Cialis. I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Blue Chew. Yeah, whatever it is. I remember one of your buddies. This is back when I was single. I remember him being like, I bought you a gift. Because he used to hang out on set all the time and come kick it with us. And I remember opening the gift, and it was a little Viagra pill and it was like a sample yeah it was like one it was just like the pill itself oh it wasn't like it wasn't like
Starting point is 00:21:56 no no no no no it was just a pill itself on top of not tissue but you know that foam that they have for it and everything like that and he was a note and it was like don't drink with this because apparently if you drink with these boner pills it doesn't work as well so did it work for you oh my god it wasn't for four hours but oh my god yes it worked my doctor, my actual doctor was like, he was retired now, but he'd be like, you want any samples? What do you need? What do you need samples of? And he was, I always thought he was joking. And then one time he was like, here, take this. And it was one of them. And he drew like a smiley face on it. And I was like, I don't know if this is ethically correct, but yes, I will try it. And it for sure worked. I'm glad it exists though you know it allows men to i mean for just fun
Starting point is 00:22:48 aside it allows men um to be able to have sex way longer into their years and uh i remember my dad once someone my stepmother was flirting with him and in front of everyone he goes, might be a blue pill night. My word. You know, so I'm happy that someone invented those pills. Yeah, because eventually I'm going to need them. Anyway, this guy's not happy because he can't make his boner go away. No, which I imagine sucks. But the fact that Elliot held out for so long without laughing at it. Well, by the way, Todd comes out of the room and Todd goes,
Starting point is 00:23:31 he wouldn't even let me see it. Todd just wanted to see his boner. And then who is it, Kelso, who goes, we might have to do a procedure to remove the woodiness. Right. No, but what is it like? He comes out laughing. That guy's like a sundial in there.
Starting point is 00:23:59 By the way, the noise that Sarah is making when she's trying not to laugh is the same noise that we would always do to her to make her laugh. Which is like. Did you hear her call the penis a slinky-do? A slinky-do? Yeah. No. She calls penises slinky-dos. Swing swongs, slinky-dos. Oh, I don't know if we've ever talked about this on the show, but I think this is where mole butt came from.
Starting point is 00:24:23 I've got a mole on my butt. Because she says that she has a, because she's trying to make the patient feel better. And she has a very elaborate. Story. Sarah slash Elliot story about how her, she had to run out of the bathroom on roller skates and everyone saw the mole on her butt.
Starting point is 00:24:40 And that's how she got the name mole butt. Yeah. It comes from there. And it, but it pays, I think it's seasons later that it pays dividends. Let's take a break. We'll be right back after these fine words. When you find that bright spot to help you get through your day, it's powerful.

Probably also know me from my stage four cancer diagnosis and sharing that journey with so many of you. There's something so authentic about a podcast.
Starting point is 00:27:14 It's me connecting, me talking raw in the moment. That's what my goal is to give you, to talk about why I feel that cancer, to a certain extent extent is a gift, what my responsibilities are as a person with cancer, because I think that there's something so much bigger than me. And to be honest,
Starting point is 00:27:34 I'm still trying to find out what that is. And maybe together we'll find it. It's gonna be a wild ride. So I hope that you all tune in. Listen to Let's Be Clear with Shannon Doherty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Hey, my name's Jay Shetty, and I'm the host of On Purpose. I just had a great conversation with Michael B. Jordan, and you can listen to it right now. Michael is known for his performances in both film and television. His breakout role was in Fruitvale Station, playing Oscar Grant, which earned him widespread
Starting point is 00:28:11 praise and numerous award nominations. His portrayal of Killmonger in Marvel's Black Panther, one of my favorites, further solidified his status as one of Hollywood's leading actors, earning him widespread acclaim for his complex and compelling performance. In our conversation, Michael really opens up. You're going to love listening to it, and I can't wait for you to check it out. The closest to getting what you want is always the hardest. It's always the feeling when you're getting ready.
Starting point is 00:28:38 People give up right before they get what they've always wanted to get. People quit. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I hated this bit about me kissing Carla. I really hated it. Why?
Starting point is 00:29:01 I hated it when we were doing it. Because it just felt such, mean i i you can't you can't blame it on alcohol it just feels so unforgivable i mean i know a lot of people everyone listening probably has something they did wasted that they regret and they cringe at and they wish they could go back in time but and i know there's no tongue and everything. I don't know. I just hated it. Yeah, you know, that's the thing. I would have, I would kill myself. Well, I wouldn't kill my, excuse me.
Starting point is 00:29:36 I wouldn't kill myself, but I don't think I could get, would be able to get over kissing your wife. You know what I mean? Yeah. Even if it was a tap kiss. Even if it was a lip lock the way Carla and JD do it. I love how they're trying to debate, but was your lip on top of my lip?
Starting point is 00:29:58 Was it just pursed? I feel like your lip was, it wasn't tongue, but your lip was on top of my other lip, which means your lips were slightly apart yeah i i don't know if i could if it happened to me i don't know if i could get over it if you and casey kissed i'd be i'd be pretty pissed off of course of course i don't know how you recover from it and i just i don't know i i guess I guess I'm so invested in these characters this many years later that I was just so mad at JD. Like, okay, so you're shit-faced.
Starting point is 00:30:29 But, like, don't put yourself in that situation. Why are you guys on a couch together, shit-faced? I don't know. I just hate. It made me upset. Maybe I'm being ridiculous. Yeah. And, like, I don't, I mean, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:30:43 I had an issue with it. But what I didn't have an issue with is you giving me the nickname Turkey, Turkey, Turkey, Turkey, Trust, Trust. Maybe. He really didn't think that one out, J.D. No, he did not. He just wanted to wear the hat. He wanted to wear the top hat, and he was trying to do his best job.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Also, i feel like uh carla instigated the kiss too just putting it out there keeping it 100 that's yeah i like that better i like that better casey feels like really casey was like casey was like yo she instigated that she started that she kept looking at me like uh-uh like uhuh. Like, uh-uh. She did you dirty. Like, I'm really Turk. She was like, mm-mm, uh-uh. Looking at me like, that's not Zach's fault. That's her fault.
Starting point is 00:31:33 It's funny that my reaction to things when it's like betrayal of you, even like the character, I get so cringy about it. I would never do that to Turk. I feel like it's real life. I would never do that to Turk. I feel like it's real life. I would never do that to Donald. Yeah. I mean, when we look at this now, I think we both kind of, definitely at this point, we definitely see ourselves
Starting point is 00:31:55 in the characters that we play. And so to see that type of thing between the two, it's like there's other forms of betrayal that are acceptable. I don't know that this is acceptable. No, no, but it could have been a whole lot worse. You know?
Starting point is 00:32:11 I mean, it could have fucked. Yeah. Because, because the real talk, if you're that drunk that you start kissing, you never know, like who's going to stop it.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Right. Drew. Well, we should have someone on that. Fuck their best friend's wife oh my god are we Jerry Springer is that what's happening
Starting point is 00:32:31 I would love for that to happen I would love to I would love to be like you are the father you are the father can we do that I would love to also announce can we do paternity tests can we do paternity tests here on Fake Doctors Real Friends? What about this whole elaborate thing that's so random and out of nowhere,
Starting point is 00:32:49 but the messenger monkey who's in a bellhop costume that has the secret written on his pad, and he's running. He's running to tell, but I've closed the window. And for some reason, the score is caribbean island music it was a real wild mishmash how about the janitor taking pictures of the little girl at the park that was kind of creepy that was a little creepy yeah that's weird why is the janitor the janitor's storyline was kind of funny how he's constantly he's sabotaging uh
Starting point is 00:33:26 storyline was kind of funny how he's constantly he's sabotaging uh although he's not sabotaging he's just showing look as parents that is the scariest thing ever your kid getting hurt that is so scary and you try everything you possibly can to stop that from happening you know and eventually it's gonna happen in some way when you're in the playground right or in this scenario cox is in the playground jordan's mad at him because he's being he's letting he's doing crazy things but with your kids for example when they're like on a jungle gym playground situation do you i mean i guess rock was a little bit old for that now or maybe not i don't know but he's too old for it now are you like cringing the whole time like are you watching them or are you able to sit back and be like okay they're not gonna get hurt what do you do for that now or maybe not. I don't know. Are you cringing the whole time? Are you watching them?
Starting point is 00:34:06 Or are you able to sit back and be like, okay, they're not going to get hurt? What do you do? It's tough. You definitely helicopter over your kids and try to protect them. I know I do. Casey, you want to talk about helicopters. My wife is...
Starting point is 00:34:20 Matter of fact, let me just go get her real quick. Hold on. You want a real answer. Here's a good one. A whole Casey parenting segment. I'm very excited. A Casey parenting segment just in time. So the first conversation is kids at the jungle gym and how we helicopter.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Like kids getting hurt and stuff like that. How do you prepare yourself? Casey Cobb, ladies and gentlemen. Hi, Casey. That's your standing ovation. Kids getting hurt and stuff like that. How do you prepare yourself? Casey Cobb, ladies and gentlemen. Hi, Casey. That's your standing ovation. Hey, in this episode, Casey, as you know, because you saw, there's like an argument between the parents about like, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:00 how protective to be over their son, and he ends up getting stitches. And I was just asking Donald, how do you do that? Like Donald says you guys are super helicopter-y, but what's it like when you're like, you want them to have fun, but you're like afraid that they're going to hurt themselves. Oh, I mean, I'm, I've gotten better over the years. I have to say there was, you know, I had an, I had a babysitter one time tell me I needed to find God. Whoa. Because I was, she was like, you need Jesus. You need God because you're so worried and paranoid.
Starting point is 00:35:34 You need to just go pray. And so I've gotten a lot better. You know, Donald likes to rag on me all the time. But when we're at the park together or if we're anywhere together, he's the super helicopter and I'm not. Did you tell him that? And do you see other parents that are just kind of letting their kids do whatever and like- Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:53 No, you don't let them do whatever. Listen to them running around. No, other parents. Oh, because when you watch the kids in that, when we're in the house and the kids are jumping around, you're like, no, God, no, get that, oh, God, oh, you're going to hurt your, oh, please, no, geez. You know what? It's, you know, I do see other parents letting their kids do that,
Starting point is 00:36:08 but I also see those same kids falling and busting their ass and hitting their heads on the concrete, and their parents are like, you're okay. And I'm like, yeah, that's what you think now. Right. The kids cross-eyed and shit. Yeah. See straight.
Starting point is 00:36:22 I tell these kids all the time when they want to go do stupid crap, like without a helmet or anything, I tell them, I remind them. I'm like, listen, I had my insides pulled out and put on a table so you could come out of my stomach to protect this head of yours. You think I'm going to let you go out and fuck it up on a play gym? Are you kidding me? My dad wouldn't let us wrestle whenever we tried to wrestle. you? Are you kidding me? My dad wouldn't let us wrestle whenever we tried to wrestle. My dad had this story of somebody he knew and the kids were wrestling and then one of them became a paraplegic and obviously he was worried and understandable that that tragedy had happened to someone he knew, but he would shut down like horse playing. Yeah. I'm like that too. You know, it's just,
Starting point is 00:37:03 I don't know. They're going to get hurt on their own so many times. I'd rather it not be when I'm standing there and I could have prevented it. That's just my whole thing, you know. So who's more helicopter, you or Donald? I mean, we both are, but I will say as far as panic goes, fight or flight, I'm the fighter, he's the flight. Wait, I don't run from this stuff. Get out of here. Well, you don't run, but you
Starting point is 00:37:26 panic. I don't panic. You panic. Babe, did you tell them? I mean, yeah, you do. When do I panic? He panics to the doctor. He's called and hung up on our pediatrician at three in the morning because I've yelled at him. I'm like, it's three in the morning. You can't call this guy. You call the pediatrician
Starting point is 00:37:42 at three in the morning? Yeah. I don't give a fuck. morning yeah my kids hurt we call them it's that simple does he pick up I only panic one time I'll tell you the story can I tell the story I didn't know this
Starting point is 00:37:57 you think pink eye is just you get it from you know what ass munching at least that's what Donald's always told me that slow down you get it from you know what? Ass munching. Ass munching. Really? Well, slow down, slow down. Donald's always told me that. Slow down, slow down. I don't know. All right, slow down.
Starting point is 00:38:10 I didn't know that pink eye came from eating ass or analingus, as they say. I didn't know that either until Donald told me one time when we saw someone, an adult with pink eye, he was like, oh, that guy eats a lot of ass. So for years I've always- How does the ass get in your eye? Well, come on, man. All you need is a freaking little doo-doo in your eye. Why wouldn't you get-
Starting point is 00:38:31 I can understand if you got some doo-doo in your mouth. You never looked into the eye of the cyclops. Why is the doo-doo getting in your eye? You never looked into the eye of the cyclops, caught a breeze. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. So anyway, for years, for 10 years, that's how I thought pink eye happened.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Well, then our kid, Rocco, he's sick. He had a lot of respiratory sinus infections and allergies and stuff when he was little. And it was 3 in the morning, and I went to go check on him because he had been coughing all night. And I'm looking at him, and I see all this white, crusty crap all on his eyes. And I was like, oh, my God, what is this? And it looked like he had just been crying it. Well, Donald, that's the night that Donald calls and hangs up on the pediatrician because I tell him it's 3 a.m., and he's like, I'm just freaking out, babe.
Starting point is 00:39:17 I'm freaking out. I saw this on Ray. In Ray. It was the movie Ray. That's how Ray Charles went blind, man. He had the crust on his eyes. So Donald thought the kid was going blind. The pediatrician calls back and is like, who's this?
Starting point is 00:39:29 Who hung up on me? Oh, my God. Donald's on the phone, like, freaking out, saying, I think he's going blind. He has all this white stuff oozing out of his eyes. And the doctor's like, has he eaten any ass? Yes. He said, keep him off the ass. He's got pink eye.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Wash your toys. As long as he hasn't eaten that, it's fine. And ever since then, we were helicopter parents. So that sums us up. All right. We got to get back to the show.

That's crazy. Oh, Donna, you got a giant water jug. I've always had this giant water jug. I've always had this giant. I've had this for like,
Starting point is 00:46:06 that's the one you had when you were in Atlanta. Yeah, man, I'm going nuts with this thing. Good. Good for you. We're talking about putting our own one out guys, because,

But you do feel better. I feel, you feel, and it helps you drop weight when you just drink that much water. Not only that, it also helps your poo also. Yeah. My nutritionist woman that I was speaking to told
Starting point is 00:46:57 me that there's different grades of poo. Like, like if there's like a scale of like the ideal and there's like letters for it. I forgot what they are, but like you can look it up if you're curious, like the ideal bowel movement is like a J let's say, or something like that. Right. Well, I don't know about that. I'm just happy when I go,
Starting point is 00:47:16 you know, it's great to get any toxins out of my body. And especially on this, on this plant-based thing, man, listen, here's another thing before we get back into the show, hold on. All y'all out there that think I'm trying to preach to you
Starting point is 00:47:29 about what you should do, I've never said anything about what y'all need to do. I know. That's why I tried to say it. I've only been talking about myself. You know what I mean? This is my motherfucking journey. You can get off of it.
Starting point is 00:47:41 I know. I feel like we even said that when we did the C-spiracy thing. We were like, hey, this is some did the sea spiracy thing we're like hey this is some stuff we're interested in we're not proselytizing do whatever you want and you still have people being like how dare you right i mean come on guys we're just we're just telling you something we're trying that we're doing it has nothing to do with you if you feel it does have something to do with you maybe you need to look in the mirror and make that change you know i mean yeah i'm asking for the man in the mirror um yeah we um we here at the show want to tell you things that are intriguing us and documentaries we're watching and things we
Starting point is 00:48:18 like um but you don't we're not telling you to do whatever do whatever the fuck you want we're not telling you to do whatever the fuck you want. It's your life, man. It's your life, man. Live your life. Do you. Do you. And let me do me. All right, listen. What I eat don't make you shit. That's real talk.
Starting point is 00:48:36 We learned that Jack, the homeless man, I think his name was Jack. Whatever his name was. Whatever. There's a homeless man who Jordan gives the baby to To hold while she's getting her bikini waxed Yes That's crazy to me Yeah
Starting point is 00:48:55 Might be a bit heightened Bit of a heightened reality She gives the kid to a bunch of people Let's strangers Kiss and hold the baby. Yeah. That would never do that. Even before COVID,
Starting point is 00:49:10 even before COVID, I wouldn't do that. This is not a Hollywood name drop, but it is. I was at a party and Gwen Stefani was there and I met her and she handed me her child. And I was like, okay,
Starting point is 00:49:23 this is a unique experience. Not only is a random person, I don't know, handing me her child. And I was like, okay, this is a unique experience. Not only is a random person, I don't know, handing me their child, but it's Gwen Stefani. And, you know, I did a little bounce
Starting point is 00:49:33 and then I handed him back. As you should. And she said, oh no, we're doing this a lot because we want the, we want him to be acclimated. And he or she or he, I forgot what sex the baby was.
Starting point is 00:49:49 But we want them to be acclimated with lots of people and not cry and be cool around strangers. I don't know if you did that with your kids or not, but I guess that's a thing. Look, man, the last thing I want to do is give my baby to somebody. And they do what Gabby's character did in that episode. I finally got me a baby! And runs out of the hospital. That's not, that's not, I'm not, I'm not, no. That's a no-go.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Look, we teach our kids stranger danger. Like, my kids, my kids right now to this point, like, he won't get in the car with the dads of his friends. He's like, get out of here i'm i think i'm gonna wait for my mom to get here she said she said for me to wait so i think do you have anything that happened to you as a child that is so bizarre that you you really can't really fully know if it was a dream or something you imagined or it happened what happened to you bud i have a very specific memory. And I'm fully open to the fact that this was a dream. But I was so young.
Starting point is 00:50:47 And I remember being at a friend's house. And a woman pulled up in a station wagon I'd never seen. And she had a few kids in the car. And she said, we're here to pick up Zach. And my stranger danger alarm went off. And I said to the babysitter, who was the babysitter of my friend whose house we were at, I was like, I don't want to go. I don't want to go. I don't know them.
Starting point is 00:51:07 I don't know them. And she was like, but your mom's going to be upset. We're here to pick you up. And I was like, no, no, no. And the babysitter was like, no, no, no. We'll call the parents. He's going to stay. And the woman left.
Starting point is 00:51:19 And to this day, I feel like it really happened. But I don't know for sure I have any way of proving that it happened or not. Anyway, so I may or may not have almost been tragically kidnapped. That would have been horrible, dude. I'm glad it didn't happen. I can't imagine your mom and dad, the screams that would have come out of them. I know, I know. And it's just so weird.
Starting point is 00:51:40 It's one of those things. I mean, I obviously have no way of confirming it either way, but it's just, something that's always been lodged lodged in my brain um by the way are you guys watching mayor of east town it's really good on hbo you guys that's me kate winslet you guys don't watch anything unless it has robots in it if there's a lightsaber you got me there's another um there's another one that's really good um a show on HBO Max called Generation Hustle. And it's all about different stories of con artists and, you know, like docu-style. Really cool. Recommend that too.
Starting point is 00:52:16 We're almost done here. The moist kiss. I laughed out loud. That was a moist kiss. I wish I was wearing an apron. That's when you and Judy are rekindling your love i don't know why i'm between you other than the you know point of the episode but i'm somehow sitting between you as you guys make out why do you think she told turk at the end she couldn't handle the
Starting point is 00:52:37 guilt she her conscious was exploding and she she couldn't handle it you do that though if it if you guys had come to the realization that it meant nothing and you knew it meant nothing, obviously it meant something to her. You know what I mean? You know, it's so hard to say because I don't know. But I feel like if it was a closed mouth kiss, yeah, let that go. That's only going to fucking cause problems that don't need to be had. I mean, it's a horrible thing, but it doesn't necessarily need to be told. If it was anything more than that,
Starting point is 00:53:12 then I can understand why I was just going to eat away at her until she cleared it up. But she even says, you know, now I understand why Turk was doing what he did. You know, you sometimes get caught up in situations and one thing leads to another and you do something where it's like, well, it didn't really necessarily mean anything, but, you know, I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:53:36 I don't know why she, I'm glad she told him. That being, you know, but this is just going to open up even more of a problem for their relationship. I foresee. I don't even remember. The funny thing is I don't even remember what happens next, but I know it's. I think you and I have a kiss in the next episode.
Starting point is 00:53:54 I'm not sure. We do? Yeah. I remember you and I having to kiss each other. This is a weird boner. I just can't. I don't know what's happening. Jewel's face um now yeah and then you know a weird
Starting point is 00:54:09 lens spike at the end right i mean i i don't normally do that on scrubs um but i just sort of look directly to the audience yeah did you find that's what it was or am i looking just slightly above the camera i couldn't i don't know i i can't i all i know is that it was one of those things where you were letting the audience in on your moment of insecurity what would it be at that panic panic i guess but i but i you know it's a very subtle difference to looking a few inches above the lens or on the rare moment as we discussed on scrubs we look right down the barrel and i i think i think for me it was looked like i was looking right down the barrel and i i think i think for me it was looked like i was looking right down the barrel um joelle is our guest here

Michael is known for his performances in both film and television. His breakout role was in Fruitvale Station playing Oscar Grant which earned him widespread praise and numerous award nominations. His portrayal of Killmonger in Marvel's Black Panther, one of my favorites, further solidified his status as one of Hollywood's leading actors, earning him widespread acclaim for his complex and compelling performance. In our conversation, Michael really opens up,

Starting point is 00:58:54 or wherever you get your podcasts. Scrub, Rewatch, or with Zach and Donald. And we're back. Yes. We're back. All right, Joelle. We've got a new song. What has our Queen Joelle... Oh, we have back. Yes. We're back. All right, Joelle. We've got a new song. What has our Queen Joelle...
Starting point is 00:59:08 Oh, we have a new song. But wait. So Travis is our guest today. He's composed the Joelle When He Gets Down to Get Down song. And we asked him on the show to please compose a song for, you know, fan calls. And so I thought it would only be appropriate that he be the first fan call. But wait, wait. Before you play it, Daniel, before you play it, shouldn't,
Starting point is 00:59:27 I think Travi Ravvy should be on while we appreciate his new song. You want to give him the reactions? Okay, I thought it would be better to hear it first so that we could comment, but I hear you. I see you. No, I think he should see our genuine reactions to it. I love it, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:59:40 This is our official, this will be going forward, our official guest welcome theme. But I think the composers should see our first reactions to it. All right. Here they come. Here comes Travis. Give it up for Travis! Hey, guys.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Hi, Travis. How you doing? What up, Rob? Great. How are you guys doing? Travis, you know how to write a hook. I don't know why you're not out there writing stuff for rihanna and bieber because you write a hooky song
Starting point is 01:00:11 thanks man thank you i walk around singing joelle monique is down to get down get down that's awesome like it was driving my wife crazy because that's all she heard coming from my office and all of a sudden she's just like what yeah so this is pretty cool do you write jingles like what's your story tell us about yourself i'm actually i'm a middle school band teacher and uh wow and my wife actually is the high school band teacher we are in this in this small little district i teach middle school and she teaches high school where where is it in uh saint helens oregon it's just uh just north of portland okay nice but then i also work on the side um i work for a few composers in new york and la and uh occasionally
Starting point is 01:00:51 do stuff for the tonight show and just i have other clients around the world that i'll do it's called arranging and orchestration where i take other people's music and then we'll make it what we'll adapt it for a different format like um well sometimes i'll take a piece of pop tunes once i actually took some pop tunes and arranged them for The Roots, the Tonight Show band, The Roots, with members of the New York Philharmonic. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:01:13 And so it's just odd different combinations like that. And so, yeah, the funny thing is, Joelle Monique is Down to Get Down is actually the first song I've ever written. Wow. What? Thunderous applause, Daniel. Thunderous applause.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Now wait a second. Travis, I feel like you need a jingle agent because John Tash is rolling in money and he's written many a jingle and I feel... Well, he wrote with That's it, right? That was like the NBA Yeah. Is that the one he wrote?
Starting point is 01:01:43 Mountain Ball Rock. Daniel knows the name of the track the one who wrote all the real jingles was was Alan Thicke he wrote like a bunch of TV shows now the world don't move to the beat of just one drum. That's him. Alan Pick wrote that? He wrote that? Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's a theme song.
Starting point is 01:02:09 I guess a jingle means a theme song. It's the same area. But the idea to be able to get something in your head super quick with something that's so short, that company, that carpet company, 588-2300 Empire. Now, I know their fucking phone number because their jingle is so genius. Well, you know which one I know. You know which one I know. Which one we'll call it.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Accidents or injuries called Jacob and Ronnie called Jacob. I thought it was Jacob and Ronnie. It's actually Jacob and Ronnie. Yeah, and Ronnie. Oh, I don't know that one. On the opposite side of things is the one that gives me nightmares. 1-877
Starting point is 01:02:51 Cars for Kids. Have you heard that one? I hate that song. Alan Thicke wrote these jingles. Just putting it out there. There's 11 unforgettable ones, but here's a few of them. He wrote Different Strokes, The Wizard of Odds,
Starting point is 01:03:08 Celebrity Sweepstakes, Alan Thicke wrote No, that's Wheel of Fortune. Which Wheel of Fortune? That was Jeopardy, I believe. So you did Jeopardy. You're doing Jeopardy. Right, he did Wheel of Fortune, The Diamond Head Game,
Starting point is 01:03:24 Animal Crack-Ups, Blank Check, and whew! I don't know any of those, except for the different strokes. I knew different strokes. Different strokes is his... Oh, my bad, he also wrote The Facts of Life. Oh! Oh! That's a big one.
Starting point is 01:03:37 He wrote The Joker's Wild. All right, well, let's get back to Travis. Okay, I'm just saying. Travis, you must be a fun teacher. I'm sensing you have a good sense of humor. I bet your kids really like you. Yeah, we have a good time. It's a, yeah, we have a good time.
Starting point is 01:03:49 And do you have any kids that, you know, I imagine there's a lot of kids where you're like, oh Jesus, please put the flute down. But you must have some kids where you go, wow, I can already see talent. That must be exciting. Oh yeah, it's really exciting. There's some kids I always see how I am.
Starting point is 01:04:04 I never, I'm not going to blow smoke up their their ass but i will find something because it drives me crazy like i don't have a teacher voice i don't have a hey boys and girls all right today we're gonna do this like i would kick my own ass if i ever heard myself talk like that but like i'll find something positive to say if they or you know i'll find something positive that is also true but um but yeah the kids like they're great kids they just work hard they just need a good teacher and so most times they you know if you expect you know if you have high expectations of them and you give them the materials they need give them the only instruction they need they can do great things wait are you saying you're like the teacher from whiplash oh no oh no but i imagine it's so exciting for you and your wife when you have a kid who well you know
Starting point is 01:04:44 it's like all of a sudden you see a kid who's starting to shine. Like, wow, this isn't just a kid who's got a little bit of talent. This is a kid who could be really good. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's really cool. It's exciting when you have kids who actually work hard and actually they get hungry to learn. And so that's pretty exciting. But, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:03 All right. We're going to debut your song. You've written another song, which we asked you for, which is something to intro our guest. Joelle almost played it before you got on, but I thought you might want to see our live reactions to it for the first time.
Starting point is 01:05:19 Wait, so you guys haven't heard it yet? We haven't heard it at all. No, we're about to hear it now for the first time. All right. All right. But I'm a fan of your work.

So I'm doing, you guys should listen, listen, I'm going to give you a shout out now because you're very talented. And,
Starting point is 01:07:32 and what is, what is your Instagram? So everybody knows. It's a Travi Wavi. How do you spell that? It's T R A V V Y W A V V Y. So reach out to Travis. If you need something, a jingle.
Starting point is 01:07:47 And don't fucking try and give him just a case of kombucha like us, okay? You better pay his ass. But, no, you're really talented, man. You're really good. Thank you. We got a caller. Travis, you're selling the Domanique is down to get down thing as a ringtone too, right? Yeah, I just put it up as a ringtone.
Starting point is 01:08:08 All right. How do people find that? How did I find that? There's a link to it in my Instagram bio. Well, there you go. So get it in his bio. You can get the Joel Monique. I hope it's the R-rated one, not the G one.
Starting point is 01:08:19 Oh, yeah. It's the real one. The real G one never, never really stuck with me. Although I'm sure Joel's mom. But my mother appreciated it. Your mother appreciated it. Okay. But they're not like,
Starting point is 01:08:28 Joelle, Monique is down to get down. Get down. I love it. No matter what's between your legs, tomorrow morning you could be making her eggs. Joelle, Monique, get down to get down. Well, Travi, we got you here. Do you have a question?
Starting point is 01:08:46 Did your life fixed in any way? How can we help you today? No, I'm cool, man. I'm just really excited. This is a – like I said, I've been a huge Scrubs fan forever, of course. What's fun – often we know you guys are asking about favorite episodes. Do you have kind of a sleeper for me. There's the one, I think it's like season eight, where it's just you.
Starting point is 01:09:09 It's just Zack and Donald, Turkey JD in the hotel room with the old man who's dying. Oh, yeah, that's a great episode. We're not in a hotel. We're at the hospital. Glenn Terman. Oh, wait. Are you talking about the one with Glenn Terman when he died? Oh, that's eight? when he died oh that's 8
Starting point is 01:09:25 I can't believe that's so late in the run of the show that was a great one that's one of my favorite episodes too that hit me so hard my father had recently passed away at the time and just processing going through that and also it was so fucking funny your outtakes Jesus Christ
Starting point is 01:09:41 the outtakes were so fucking funny but after such a great episode. Glenn Turman was in, he's a wonderful actor. He's one of the best actors ever in the history of America, man. Yeah. Put some respect on that name, baby. Yeah, and he was in the George C. Wolfe movie with Viola Davis and all the stars that were in it. What's it called?
Starting point is 01:10:04 Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. Yeah, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. He's in that. He's a wonderful, wonderful actor. Amazing actor. Did you know that he was married to Aretha Franklin? No way. I do now.
Starting point is 01:10:14 What the hell? He was married to Aretha Franklin from 1978 to 1984. That is wild. Did you just Google that or did you know that? No, I knew that already. I didn't know the exact dates, but I did Google the exact dates. But he was actually married to Aretha Franklin. I used him.
Starting point is 01:10:32 I think Bill may have thought of him because I cast him in a pilot that I directed. My brother had written for Fox, and he was so good in it. And I think I showed it to Bill, and he got the idea to use him for that episode. But yeah, he's a- Some of the greatest movies. Cooley High. He was on A Different World. Oh, yeah, he was on A Different World.
Starting point is 01:10:52 He's always, and he's always good. You know what I mean? He's always good. And so, yeah, shout out Glenn Turman. I'll give you a little trivia, since Travi Wabi doesn't want anything from us on this episode. This episode is the only time Dr. Cox wears a jersey for a team other than the Detroit Red Wings. What does he wear, the Rangers?
Starting point is 01:11:16 I don't remember which sports ensemble it was. The monkey in the episode is Crystal the monkey Who appeared in many other TV shows And movies including The Hangover Part 2 That's the one that was licking The penis Licking the penis? You don't remember that? Remember the monkey's licking something And they're like what is that?
Starting point is 01:11:36 And then Zach Galifianakis Goes over and licks it too And it turns out to be What's his name's penis? The Asian dude's penis. Ken Jeong. Ken Jeong, yeah. I don't remember that.
Starting point is 01:11:51 It's a little tiny penis. I don't remember that. It's hilarious, dude. I don't remember that. All right, here's the math on the clock thing. JD and Turk have changed the clock in their apartment ahead one hour, then back three hours, ahead five hours, and back 43 minutes, so that altogether the clock is ahead two hours and 17 minutes.
Starting point is 01:12:10 The clock says 8.49, which would make the actual time 6.32. However, J.D. and Turk state that the time is 9.52. For this to be true, the clock would have had to have said 12.09. Now, I don't think any of you give a fuck about that, but it is on Scrubs Wiki, and I thought you might like to know. And the last thing I'll say is that on streaming services, the captions say that Hook by Blues Traveler is playing on the jukebox right before Carla asks, Hey, do you know who sings this song? And the song playing is not Hook by Blues Traveler maybe we tried to have it be that and we couldn't pay for it
Starting point is 01:12:48 there you go I think we did it right guys be a better friend than these three are please and check out my episode of Solos I'm very proud of it it's only 30 minutes of your time if you like Black Mirror it's very Black Mirror esque and Anne Hathaway
Starting point is 01:13:04 gives a pretty astonishing performance. I can't say any more. It will be spoilers. But she blew me away with her performance. Oh, Zach, I also wanted to tell you before I forget. Alex Inc. was a great show. Oh, thank you. You're one of the one people who – you're one of the only people who thought of that.
Starting point is 01:13:20 Yeah, I think it was my wife and I were two of the seven people who watched it. Oh, thank you. I blame the network for marketing it. Yeah, I think it was my wife and I were two of the seven people who watched it. Oh, thank you. I blame the network for marketing it. Well, it had promise. You know, sometimes in your first season, you don't quite figure it out, but you're on the bubble ratings-wise, and the network goes, we're going to give you another chance. And then you kind of figure it out. That was kind of us.
Starting point is 01:13:38 We were not quite figuring it out. There were changes that could have made it better, and the network didn't give us that chance. But you win some, you lose some, and I appreciate that you watched it, Travis. It was a good show. Did you write all of the episodes or did you just – No, I directed a bunch. Matt Tarsis, who was one of our main writers on Scrubs, was the showrunner of that show, and we had a whole writing staff.
Starting point is 01:14:00 I didn't write it. That's what's up. All right, guys. We love you.
