Hi. Hi. You look handsome. Hi. So do you. I got a haircut. Can you guys tell? Look.

Oh, looking good. Yeah. Okay. Short on the sides. Well, I didn't want to go so short so it's sort of a hybrid i had to have a conversation like i said take like a month off and then he did and i was like try six weeks try six weeks this is the tiniest little trip up a little a couple more a couple more days off that what would a complete baldy be then how many months would that be

that wouldn't be months that would be all that would be take me back to birth I've never shaved my head I probably should it would have to be justified by a roll or something because I've never other than having a bald cap on and scrubs I have no idea what I look like

like a crew cut I think it would look really funny on you really? because of my nose shape? no not because of your nose shape Zach no I thought you had such great hair it would be like a shame to cut it because of my nose shape

that's where you went as you know I'm self Because of my nose shape, that's where you went? As you know, I'm self-conscious about my nose. It's big. You wear it well. It's beautiful. I'm loving the reaction to our Hyundai video. The people are so funny. Like, the overwhelming response is, when are you going to release the whole episode?

Which makes me feel like we should. I think we should, dude. Yeah, did you read the comments? People were like, this is hilarious. Put out the whole episode, which makes me feel like we should. I think we should, dude. Yeah, did you read the comments on them? People were like, this is hilarious. Put out the whole thing. Loving it. Yeah, people were like, I would watch this. What I really like about it is that we're not

freaking pushing this car on you heavily. It actually comes up in a natural conversation. I love that. And also, no bullshit, the car is nice. The car is dope. It was. A lot of people in the comments were like, oh my God, no bullshit, the car is nice. The car is dope. It was. It was a nice car. A lot of people in the comments were like, oh, my God, I'm actually considering this car now.

And the Hyundai Tucson is on our list. And, you know, obviously they're an advertiser, but I genuinely thought that car was pretty sexy. It was so comfortable. And all the funny little, like, innovative safety features, like the attention thing and the and the blind spots on your dash that was cool but dude i laughed at us i laugh every i've watched that video 900 000 times because i helped edit it and watching every time you say chewy nose i laugh chewy nose no no you go you go no no chewy nose right What makes me laugh is, what I laugh at is, let me drive. How was the room in the back?

Because I saw someone, one of my comments on my Instagram was, car looks hot. Daniel's a tall guy. Was there enough room for his legs? Oh, absolutely. Yeah, I even had a bunch of stuff back there. You may have seen me leaning down the video. I had the equipment,

I had some boxes and I was very comfortable. It was like the arm is down. It was space to spare roomy. And someone else wrote, wow, y'all weren't lying. That is a big sunroof. I was so concentrated on the floor.

Cause that's where all the recording stuff was. I didn't look up until someone was like, that's a sunroof. So when you hear me go, oh, my goodness, that is enormous. That was a genuine reaction. I like that trend of a sunroof being the length of a car pretty much. Obviously, you need to be able to close it because the heat can be oppressive. But yes, I feel like that's a cool new trend that I appreciate. As somebody who doesn't do a lot of driving, it's really nice to be able to just have sort of like beyond a panoramic view of your surroundings.

And as someone who's been to a lot of drive-ins over the past year, those things are excellent for making sure you can see the screen no matter where you have to park the vehicle. Super advantageous. Also, if there's a night with beautiful stars out and you just want to feel like you're flying through the galaxy. Oh, gosh. Did you feel like you were in the Millennium Falcon? I mean, when am I not in the Millennium Falcon? I had a lot of people comment like, dude, how could you not know this MCU reference? Oh, boy.

Of course. Oh, come on. I don't know any of that stuff. Get out of here. I don't know any of that stuff. That's okay. Do you care to know? To have conversations with you guys, I do, and my nephew.

Will there ever be a moment in time where you will have watched all of the MCU movies and be able to piece it together like I can? No. But I tell you what, I'm going to watch Black Widow on July 9th with you. Hey. I'm going to sit next to you. I'm going to hold your thigh at exciting parts.

Should I do that thing? What was that movie, Bachelor Party, where he puts the hole in the bottom of the popcorn and puts a thief inside? Should I do that with you on July 9th? I pray that you don't do that. Did you ever see that movie,

Bachelor Party, with Tom Hanks? Like, I can't eat the popcorn after that happens. Well, you wouldn't be worried about the popcorn. You'd be worried about the treats at the bottom. Oh my... The treats! No! Have you guys not seen Tom Hanks in the movie Bachelor Party? I've seen the movie, yes.

There's no way that it is not completely unmakeable today and un-PC and probably horrible. But as a kid, I remember thinking it was hilarious. I just remember that ladies' nipples were the size of quarters. They looked like quarters. I remember that. I don't remember that. I remember that it was an early Tom Hanks movie before he became like family movie guy. It was like R-rated and crazy.

Before Splash? It was before Splash, definitely. Before Money Pit? I don't know. Joel can answer. I think it was his first big lead, if I'm not mistaken. I mean, I don't know. It was before he became like family movie.

No, I remember the movie. This was an R-rated movie. I mean, it was crazy. I remember seeing Big and being like, oh, this guy's career is going a completely different path. And I was young when it came out, but I knew. I was like, Tom Hanks is an amazing actor, dude. And Big is the perfect example because me and my friends it was a toss-up that night it was that or like funny farm it was something like that something

where it was like something that you don't necessarily want to see but you know you're gonna laugh or this movie that we knew nothing about and i remember going and seeing big and being like holy cow that did the dude from Bachelor Party is a great actor. I remember liking that. But, dude, there's a scene in this movie where, like, they get a donkey for the Bachelor Party. And, like, there's all these pills out on the table. And the donkey does all the pills. What?

The donkey, like, snorts cocaine and, like, drops all these pills. Oh. It's crazy. Yeah. Bachelor Party. Oh. It's crazy. Yeah. Bachelor Party, everyone, I recommend it. And if it has offensive shit in it, I didn't make it. I just remember it from my childhood. You know, both Splash and Bachelor Party came out in 1984,

which is, those are two very different movies for two very different audiences starting the same person. Yeah, I bet you when Splash became a giant hit, he was probably like, oh shit, I've got that r-rated bachelor um should we get the episode fucking amazing episode very funny this is five six seven eight stories about a show we made about a bunch of docs and nurses and a janitor 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 with Zach and Donald This is a pretty great episode. I mean, it has so much in it.

Did you direct this episode? Who directed this episode? I wish I did. Michael Spiller did and he did a fantastic job. Spiller did a great episode. I mean, it has so much in it. Did you direct this episode? Who directed this episode? I wish I did. Michael Spiller did, and he did a fantastic job. Spiller did a great job. I mean, tell us about the Kung Fu sequence. It looks like it took forever to do, and how much rehearsal did you do? It's just amazingly well done.

That was one day of rehearsal, and then we shot. We rehearsed in the morning and then shot that afternoon. Oh, damn. You rehearsed and shot all in one day. Yeah, yeah this is before i had any type of martial arts training or anything like that i was just basically doing what i saw on television right and copying bruce lee and stuff like that but now i think because of because of the amount of uh work i put in i'd be like well i don't know if that kick would look

real or you know what i mean i'd be a little bit more critical of how it looked. Right. Well, you had the luxury of it being a comedy, so you could be a little bit silly. But I thought it was really well shot by Michael Spiller. And I thought you and Rob were fucking hilarious. Yeah, right. Get ready for the big dog. And then you say that line from, what's it?

It's an Indiana Jones reference where you go. Quit fooling around with that kid and get down here. Yeah. You picked up on that. No, I wish I did. Scrubs Wiki, I'm sorry. Oh, damn. Damn.

Scrubs Wiki had some good ones on this episode. But, God, this is a big episode. This might have been one of the ones that we didn't accomplish in five days because it feels larger than usual because of the whole triathlon and your kung fu thing. There's a lot in this episode. Set pieces, as we call them in the biz. I laughed at Sacred Fart. I laughed at Sacred Fart. Yeah.

So the first thing that happens is I'm at your apartment and Carla wants me out. We're all speaking subliminally to each other. And you tell me subliminally that you're watching Giselle in the Victoria's Secret mom show in your spoon. Remember that that was a thing? I never think I really watched it, but would do like a victoria's secret show it was like a runway show right but they've canceled it i i heard they all the the victoria's secret model sexy girl thing is over right joelle yeah i don't think it had anything to do with like sexy girls or not it's just victoria's secret's been struggling as a company with the boom of

a lot of new lingerie ads. A lot of people got ahead of the like full range of skin tone nudes before Victoria's Secret did. They still own a large corner of the market. Shout out to Cora Harrington, who has a Twitter that's all about lingerie that I'm obsessed with. But yeah, so they,

they are like, well, we're going to, we're going to pivot. We're going gonna be like i think they're gonna probably move in the like body inclusive skin color yeah like what's that brand um is it airy or something that is a that they do do that for some reason i feel like there's a brand that's like embracing all body shapes and sizes wait a second there's a ton of

them wait a second are you telling me ton of them. Wait a second. Are you telling me that lingerie is no longer a thing anymore? Like that's going on. No, lingerie is a thing. But what they're saying is like Victoria's Secret was clearly like, here's what you wear if you're a 6'1 skinny woman. And look how sexy it looks. And they're saying,

why don't we have more realistic lines of lingerie for all body types? I'm guessing. And skin colors. I'm going to tell you something right now. Lingerie always looks good when it's too small. I'm just keeping it 100. Oh, my God. When it's all the way up in the cracks, it's better.

When it's in the cracks, it's better. That's a good t-shirt. Let's get that. Am I wrong? It depends. Three dudes. Am I wrong well three dudes um and a woman and a woman who likes women so i think you can ask the question um i think that it all depends on what everybody likes right so everyone likes their own thing do you like that lingerie that has like the straps down the leg and all that shit? As long as it's in the cracks, I'm all good.

Oh, my God. That's your only requirement is that it's in the cracks. It has to be in the crack of the ass. The more revealing, the better. So you don't like it if there's satin covering the butt. You want it in the crack. I want that shit to look like, listen. Like Lorde's new album cover.

It's coming off. That's amazing. It's coming off that's amazing it's coming off you're gonna buy that album because of that touch just because of that just because of the freaking shot um if it listen it's coming off in five minutes in less than five minutes anyway you know what i mean like that that's the other thing i don't understand about it i'm always like baby put on some lingerie she puts it on and within two minutes it's not on her anymore right but it's for the moment where you're like, damn. That's a glorious two minutes.

Is Lorde wearing anything in that picture? I don't know. I don't know. How do you know? Did you zoom? No, I did not zoom. You zoomed.

You know I Zoomed. I couldn't tell if Lorde was, this is a sentence I've never said, I couldn't tell if Lorde was nude. She definitely has decided to show off her bum. Yes. She said, I'm going to jump over that cameraman. Yeah. Yeah.

But you can't tell if she's wearing a bathing suit or not. Or a thong. I didn't zoom, so I don't know. Danil, now that you've taken a good look, Danil. Yeah, Danil, now that you've looked, do you confirm it on this? Because you're the one. You're the one that was like, I didn't zoom. Yeah.

It looks to me like she is wearing underwear. Yes. Or a bathing suit. Yeah, I imagine at the photo shoot, she wasn't going to jump over the cameraman naked. So there you go. Joelle, did you see the cover? Joelle, did you zoom? Yeah, I saw it.

I assumed it was... I don't think you need to zoom. She's back with my son. I can see her pretty well. It's Lorde. Hey, what's up? Yeah,

well, I think that's going to sell some albums. I don't know how the music is, but everybody likes a nice bum. Oh, it's all slapping. Lorde's a great artist. It's all slapping. The music. Dude, I'm going to tell you what right now, man.

She ain't had a real hit since Royals, though. Keep it 100. That's the fire. That's the real deal Holyfield right there. That's the timeless hit that'll play forever and ever and ever and ever. She's lucky to have one. Everybody's lucky if you have one of those. That's what I'm talking about.

Yeah. That shit is fire. Royals. She's had some time to make an album. Maybe it's going to be fire, as you say. It's tough to touch that Royals, man. Keep it 100. Well, her last album was in 2017, so she's had some time.

I've been listening to this Biebs song a lot. Which one? I'm notbs song a lot Which one? I'm not embarrassed I'm coming out I'm coming out of the closet Today as someone Who loves Justin Bieber Okay You were in the closet about that?

Yes that's not something I have ever broadcast before I know that I'm very alpha and masculine But I need to break that image of me right now. I don't think one precludes the other, per se. Well, I'm sure there's not a lot of bros being like, bro, did you hear fucking Anyone by Bieber? Listen, that's a slap. It's a slap, And my friend wrote it. So I feel,

I feel extra proud of my friend. He also wrote peaches. Great song. Um, tick tock smasher. Yeah. Killing it. Killing it.

Anyway, I can't play you anyone here guys. Cause I'm not allowed to, but put it on and don't judge. Fucking especially. That's the song that you're bumping right now. I love, I love pop and it's obviously a super pop radio hit, Don't judge. That's the song that you're bumping right now? You know the song I'm bumping right now? I love pop, and it's obviously a super pop radio hit.

But the kid, the fella, he's not a kid anymore. The young man can sing. I got a good one for you then. Go ahead. The Weeknd and Ariana Grande. Oh, I know that song. That's like the number one song in the summer right now. That song is.

I mean, originally it was a fire song when it's just a weekend. But Ariana Grande has taken that shit to the next level. Girl. It's got an 80s. It's got an 80. It's very hit to be 80s right now. Right. Yeah.

It has that very. It's like running. Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. By the way, anyone has, when I told Andrew, I liked his song. He said, oh, did you like those Phil Collins drums? Cause you know, the song has that. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, Phil Collins drums? Because you know the song has that do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do. Hell yeah.

Love that. And I was like, I'm talking to the guy who fucking chose the Phil Collins song. Drums are my song. It's so, so cool. Pass the fucking sushi. But this is where it makes me feel old, man. What's the

girl's name that sings Driving the Car? What's her name? Olivia Rodrigo? Yes. And in her new song, she's talking about, I'm the one that hipped you to Billy Joel. Yes. And it's like, come on, kiddo.

That's not that old, is it? Is Billy Joel that old? Billy Joel did not have an in-popular culture career by the time this child was born. Is Uptown Girl really that old? how old is her? how old is her?

They're like, that's a great song. Remember the video with Christy Brinkley? Yeah, that's a great, you know, it's a great Billy Joe song. The long, whoa, for the longest time. That shit is one of the best songs ever ever You know what else is a great song? Dude, when he My deep cut My favorite deep cut is

Vienna waits for you Just like, no Oh, my God The first song I ever learned in my life. Don't go changing to try and please me. Go ahead. You never let me down before. My favorite part of that song is when it goes,

What you trying to get into a nation? What you trying to do into one day soon? What you trying to do? Come on, we got to focus on the TV show scrubs. We got to focus on the show, dude. All right, this is an episode that's so funny. I love this whole riff in the lobby. I can't just un-E-vite everyone. I got two E-yeses and two E-maybes.

That's a lot of E-sponsors. Yeah, dude. And then, quando? Yeah. I'll show 30 until upside down question mark. And then you look at me and you go, I borrowed your Spanish dictionary.

Yeah. And you're the only one, you're one of the only e-yeses. I've got 24 e-maybes. Cuando? Ocho30, and Upside Down? I remember this episode very well, man. Like, this is one of those episodes when I was watching it. I was like, I remember shooting this.

I remember shooting this scene, KwonDo, 830, Upside Down. I remember shooting this and laughing so hard at that. I remember that. This season, I think shooting this and laughing so hard at that. I remember that. This season, I think, is a really great season. I know we got off the rails a little bit with like, you know, ostriches and shit, but I just feel like as we're starting to watch this season, I remember liking this season and feeling like we were

just having so much fun. So much fun at this time, yeah. Yeah. And Sacred Fart, we didn't, you know, not expecting Kelso to like it, but Kelso finds it hilarious. Sacred Fart. Sacred Fart. He goes, did you see the sign? Ha!

And you do the safety dance. Yes. S-S-S-A-A-A. Until that moment, I had never heard that song. Oh, really? I take it back. They were a one-hit wonder. I heard the song. i didn't i take it back i heard the song i heard the song i didn't know what safety dance was you can dance if you want to you can leave your hands

behind now i don't know much about them but they were a one hit wonder and then you make some reference to the band that i didn't fully get what do you mean? You say something about Commendat or something. You have a line. That's Elliot says it to Carla. She's like, didn't you learn your lesson when you told him the

Commendat was coming to town? But I didn't get it either. I'm going to look it up. I think the band is called Dirk Commendat or something. I don't know. It went over my head. He can dance. He can dance. He can dance if he wants to. He can leave his friends behind. I laughed out loud

at... We're going through the list of things. Is it you or Elliot? It's you and me and then I go... How could you not have slept in a hammock? Naked on a hammock. Naked on a hammock. Naked on a hammock.

I'm afraid of dragonflies. I laughed at that, too. I definitely made that shit up. There's no way that was real. I'm afraid of dragonflies. I'm afraid of dragonflies. Like, why is that going to really fuck up my naked sleeping in a hammock? I don't know.

And Kelso's really driving through this year that he loves Asian prostitutes. Yeah, I mean, it's in every episode that Kelso really loves prostitutes of the Asian persuasion. Now, what's it... So what do you think Jake's fantasy was? They were in there for four minutes. He probably said something really naughty.

Yeah, I mean, what is going to make a woman... She says, come on, Jake. Four minutes. He probably said something really naughty. Yeah. I mean, what is going to make a woman? She says, come on, Jake. Just come on in here. Just tell me what your wildest thing is. Anything is good. And then the clock cuts to five minutes later and not even. And they run out.

And she's like, oh, my God, Jake. Like, what could it have been? Do you have anything like that where you'd be like, well, that's it. Never mind. Do you have anything like that where you'd be like, well, that's it. Never mind. The hottest, the hot, the thing, the moment that you've been waiting for with the woman that you've been waiting for, whether like, like, let's go off the chain. Like the person you never, ever in a million, million years thought it would be possible. You two are in a moment.

And this person says something to stop you guys from doing it. What would it be? I don't know. I mean, something that would be painful. I'm not really into S&M. If she was like, I've got the clamps. Get in that fucking cage. I mean, no disrespect to those who love it, but I just don't think that's my particular thing.

Get in the dog crate. It's all set up. Get in it. Eat that kibble, motherfucker. I don't know. What about you? What's your answer? I don't know, dude.

It's a tough one because, like, I feel like I'm down for it. They don't even start. They just, like, he talks her through it. Yeah, like, this is what we're going to do. And she's like, they don't even start. They just like, he talks her through it. Yeah, like, this is what we're going to do. And she's like, that's it. No. It breaks them up. It breaks them up.

Yeah. It's pretty sad. Poor Jake. He finally felt comfortable to share his fantasy. You pressured her into doing that. Right. I did. But I mean, I wanted her to be honest and open with her lover.

Now she has a fantasy we learned that, that's very elaborate involving a Mexican apple. She crushed that monologue too. That was so funny. But I thought this was the episode, there's one point where I,

where I fulfill her fantasy by dressing up as the Mexican apple thief. But I'm not, it's not that we're hooking up. I'm helping her with another man, I think.

What? Don't you remember remember that it must be this season because this season has a runner of elliot being obsessed with her whole elaborate mexican apple thief sex fantasy and there's some point where i dress up with like a mexican poncho and and a sombrero and i'm sure it's not going to be very pc but i i know that I'm playing a Mexican apple thief. Yeah, I don't remember this. I don't think there's any skin painting or anything like that, but I do know that I'm wearing a sombrero. JD's cereal, JD's bananas and nuts. Oh, man, I was on fire this episode what about doug pre-tagging the patient's toes yeah

he's like i wrote one ish there are a lot of very funny uh carla looking for couples to eat dinner with i know the i know how that goes dude i know how that goes, dude. I know how that goes. That's your wife? That is my wife. Get married. We'll have dinner together. Yeah. So she always used to say that to me.

Find a girlfriend. We can stop being our third wheel and go on double dates. Yeah. All right. Now this whole, we got to talk about this whole triathlon thing. This was, the water was colder than you could possibly imagine. We really went out to the beach. We were out in Malibu. And I remember that scene where I'm getting in the water is the funniest fucking thing. I laughed so hard, no wetsuit and like tiptoeing in and trying to splash

it on my body. Yeah. But then there's a scene where you're actually swimming. I was out there in the water. Yeah. It was freezing. It was like 45 degrees, no wetsuit, and all the crew is in there with wetsuits, right? And it was a hot day, but it didn't matter that it was a hot day because this is actually an interesting story. The water was freezing, but it was hot outside. board for me to get out onto for breaks. Cause you couldn't stay in there very long and you just lost your breath. It was so fucking cold. So I would do the gag, pick an apple, put it in your pocket. And we did that. And then I would, they'd give me a break. Okay, cut, cut, take a break. And I would get on the long board and it would be hot in the sun. And I just kind of catch my breath. I did that so many times going back and forth, hot, cold, hot, cold. When I came out of there, I was like in ecstasy. It felt felt so amazing I don't know if you've ever done this with like a cold plunge pool and a sauna people you know if you're at a spa or

someone you know has this but if you go hot cold hot cold hot cold like 20 times you you have this euphoria come over you and I remember I remember I'll never forget it I was lying in my trailer and I was like I felt like higher than I've ever felt in a good way. And it was because of that. Hot, cold, hot, cold. Don't they say that this is what you're supposed to do nowadays? Like, isn't this a regimen that people are doing to combat dementia or something like that? I don't know about dementia, but it definitely felt good for anxiety. If you can handle it. I know that people,

I remember reading an article about Rick Rubin, the famous producer had like a sauna and then outside his sauna, an ice plunge. And he would do this. He would go. And there's other people that do it. They go back and forth, go back and forth. And you have,

you get this like natural high from your body going. I can tell you from this experience that I've never forgotten that it works. I did it a lot because we shot that whole scene and I had to keep doing it, keep doing it. And it was amazing. I felt, I felt higher,

higher than I've ever felt, but in a good way and like a, not a, not a drug way and like a enlightened way. That's dope. We should go to break. All right. We're going to go to break and we'll be right back after.

There's something so authentic about a podcast. 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, is a gift, what my responsibilities are as a person with cancer, because I think that there's something so much bigger than me.

Listen to Let's Be Clear with Shannon Doherty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. And we're back.

We are back. Did you see that woman? A pitiful that ain't listening to fake doctors, real friends. Did you see that nice woman who covered the We Gotta Call Her song? She did a good job. She did. We want more of you to cover the songs. If you're a fan and you do covers, can you tag us in covers on Instagram?

And if they're not horrible, we'll repost them. Right, Donald? I would love to hear like a 12-part acapella band do what you're trying to get some stories yeah i was just gonna say about a show we made even something slowed down oh yeah so about a bunch of doctors but anyway the point is is that is that if you do sing covers, please sing a cover of one of our many ditties, and we'll repost it.

I want to talk about that. We were talking about the triathlon that J.D. does. It's more like a walkabout, really, when you think about it, right? He's having a moment in his life where he's trying to figure out what he's going to do. needs a place to live and you know he's alone yeah no girlfriend no girlfriend he's lost and he goes on this journey yeah this quest through ocean land a vision quest yeah you're right yeah come through at the end and realize

he has the help all he had the help all along it was offered to him in the beginning and he was so stubborn that he played it off as like you know we're superficial friends we're not really friends yeah we like to keep it superficial but really jd and elliot are there for each other, regardless of if they're a boyfriend and girlfriend couple. You could say he can't do it all on his own. You could say that, but I chose not to. I wish you would have, to be honest. You wish I would have chosen not to say. No, listen, let's just bring it to a real place.

It's very hard to maintain a friendship. It's one thing to have an ex where you're like, you're tight, you're fine. It's cool. Everything's all good. Like, uh, how are you? Good, good. Oh, I saw your Instagram, you know, superficial talk, but these two are trying to be in each other's lives as best friends in a best friend group. That's really, and work together every day that's really really hard they're asking a lot of each other and their their their way of trying to do it is to keep everything superficial i mean he literally says dynamite teeth today friend so sparkly i mean they're just trying to keep it superficial and finally elliot breaks down and goes i can't keep it superficial with you you're

my you're my friend i don't know how to be fake with you. I need you. Do a dolphin costume. Oh my God, that dolphin costume. I don't get it. So bad. I just didn't get it. That was like one of those moments where it was like, Jesus. I loved it.

He's hallucinating. Yeah, but you grab her face first. Oh, you're real. Yeah. Thank goodness. I thought it was a hilarious choice that she's in a dolphin costume because he's tripping out and he he's hallucinating

that was very funny and i just thought it was sweet that she carried me and he got that keen song which i love and i believe this going forward bill said season five on they're all the original songs they worked out that what the deals would be um said season five on they're all the original songs they worked out that what the deals would be um from season five on so the songs aren't replaced as i understand it do you remember keen love keen i don't know what happened to keen remember the bowery bar keen me you um bill barnes no i don't remember that we hung out remember new york city i remember new york city it's it's the big city in new york right yeah do you remember when we went and saw that show Bill Barnes. No, I don't remember that. I don't remember New York City. I remember New York City. It's the big city in New York, right?

Yeah, do you remember when we went and saw that show, Keen? I've seen a few Keen shows, but go ahead. This was right when, this is right around this time when... And if we have a moment, why don't we go Talk about it somewhere, only we know. This could be the end of everything, so why don't we go? You don't remember going to see him before? Yeah, somewhere, only we know.

It's a great song. I don't know what happened to that band. They were so good. We went and saw them live at the Bowery Bar, dude, is what I'm trying to say to you, bro. Okay, we didn't see them at the Bowery Bar. No, what is it then? That's not a venue. What is it then?

The Bowery. No. There's a venue in the Bowery. It's not called the Bowery Bar. What is the big ass? Yes, now I'm getting what you're saying. It's on Houston, I think. Is it the Bowery, or is it

something else? You look that up, Daniel. You're the music guy here. What, the name of the venue, or what happened to Keane? Because I looked up. The Bowery, if I'm not mistaken. It's called the Bowery. Bowery Ballroom. Bowery Ballroom. Yeah, that's what it is. The Bowery. Bass neck.

Twat ears. Wow. Don't make me freaking start fucking them ears. Listen, do not fuck my twat ears. Don't make me freaking Start fucking them ears Listen Do not fuck My twat ears Oh my god Here comes the sound effect again Daniel I need that for my

For my sound pad I can get you both I'll get you both later today I don't want a real Sexual noise I want Donald's Yes A specific one

Yeah no worries I got you Okay thank you What about when I'm Pedaling the bike And I'm like The only thing I've had to eat all day is a half a jellyfish. And she says, why don't you just change gears? And I go, it's like pedaling in hummus. And then I see Johnny Castle and Sam walk by with a pig.

Old pig. And they're eating the apple. What are they eating? They will see you at the luau. They already finished and cooked a pig? They not only finished, but they successfully

cooked a pig on a, what do you call it, a spigot? Yeah. A spit. On a spit. Or a spigot. Do you think that spigots are where water comes out of? Do you think that Johnny Castle and Sam, I mean, their characters actually cooked the

pig themselves? I don't think they existed. I think that was the fake. I think they were a hallucination. No, no, no. I think so, dude. Well, what's a funnier answer? The funnier answer is that they've had that much time off from the triathlon. They've been done for so long. Yeah.

But then the joke doesn't make sense when he grabs her face. Oh, and you're real. Thank God. Oh, my God. How about when you're getting ready to do the surgery for the woman and they cut without anesthesia and they cut the cocks, put a cotton in his ears. Put a cotton in his ears, dude. That was so funny. And then you're like, you go, you got this, you got this.

And then you see the hypnotist, he's whispering, what are you saying? He goes, I'm just saying you got this, you got this. Right. And did you see what he does when she starts screaming? No. It seems like he's going, om na shiva, om na shiva, om na shiva, om na shiva, om na shiva, om na shiva, om na shiva. Freaking raise the Indian Jones to the temple of doom.

No, but there's no way that woman would ever not scream. Hell no. First of all, you got one cut in, and she didn't scream. Yeah. But you know it was burning burning you know that shit was burning you know she was like god if he cuts me one more time that's it that's where that's it i'm not gonna be able to take it oh my god and then she screams and then you go obi nobi This episode was hilarious, dude. And then Elliot carrying me at the end to the finish line.

Yeah, it's very, very, very polished. And then we're lying there together. I mean, you get the sense in this episode. You can't help but go, maybe they will end up together. They're so cute together. Well, you could tell that she definitely has feelings for him. Yeah, and he does for her. It's so sad. But the fact that she puts the dude on her back and carries him over the fence.

She loves him. Yeah, you could tell already. That's foreshadowing in a big motherfucking way. You know what I mean? Yeah, because that's what you do with a partner. You lift them up. You carry them when they need to be carried. That's right.

As New Edition once said, can you stand the rain? Elliot says yes. Yeah. I can. And also, like, that footprints thing that Jesusesus like you know and when when you didn't see the my footsteps beside you i was carrying you yeah footprints elliot is my jesus she's carrying me wow it's deep deep right we should probably go to break and then come back with yes we'll go to break and we will come back with an exciting caller.

Oh my gosh, it's so good to see you all. It's so good to see you, my friend. Welcome, welcome, welcome. Where are you calling from? Well, I live in Denver, but currently in the state of Washington. It's so good to see you my friend Welcome, welcome, welcome Where are you calling from? Well, I live in Denver But currently in the state of Washington My girlfriend and I are actually living out of the van For the summer, traveling around And yeah, we are taking a little break in an Airbnb

So it's actually good timing for this Finally get to wash that ass, huh? Hi, Donald, we just met him Don't talk about ass washing You know he's a dirty dude Yeah, you can to wash that ass huh hi donald you just met him don't talk about ass you know you know he's a dirty dude if he's yeah you can't wash your ass in a van listen no you cannot i have been went down a rabbit hole with these conversion vans i saw nomadland and i know nomadland was not meant to make me feel like i want to live in a van um but i did i went down the rabbit hole and is that what you're in? Some sort of converted van? Yeah, yeah. I bought a van a couple years ago, converted it myself,

put some solar panels and batteries and all the works in it. So what do you got in there? What do you got in there besides a bed, obviously? We've got a bed. We've got lights. We've got fans. We've got a heater. I've got a lot of storage for toys. My girlfriend and I love biking and paddle boarding, all the outdoor sports. So we got a big old garage for everything in the back. So yeah, it's like a little log cabin in the back. And do you have a fridge and a stove? What about food? Yeah, we've got a little fridge. We've got a little kitchen stove, sink with like a little pump action faucet. So very basic, but you know, it works. Yeah, but you did it. And then what about the peeing and pooing situation?

Yeah, that one's a little difficult sometimes. We always try and prioritize having bathrooms nearby, but if emergency calls, we do have a bucket toilet with little baggies. Oh yeah, they have that in Nomadland where they talk about pooping in a bucket. Yes, yes, yes, they do. Did you see Nomadland?

I did. Yes, I loved it. I thought it was very beautiful. I agree. Did this make you want to change your lifestyle and this is why you're doing this? Well, I mean, I was doing it before Nomadland came out. We were not in the band at the time and it made us want to kind of go back in. You must have to really, really, really get along with your girlfriend to live out of a van

together. I mean, there she is. It feels like next level getting along, not just like, oh no, we love each other. Like, no, we're going to get in a tiny van and tour the country. Yes. Yeah. We get along well. There are definitely some times where we kind of get at each other's nerves a little bit, but for the most part, yeah, we get along well uh there are definitely some times where we kind of get at each other's uh nerves a little bit but for the most part yeah we get along what do you say you're like go to the back of the van i like my alone time so i always preface like every time we go out like i need some alone time i need some time where i'm gonna go off by myself and do my own thing because she doesn't get upset by that? She does a little bit. She doesn't like being alone.

But she understands. Yeah, she understands. Donald, I can't picture you and Casey living in a van together. When we first started dating, CBS asked us if we wanted to be a couple on The Amazing Race. Oh, yeah. And I was like, if we did it, babe, I mean, yeah, we'd probably win, but our relationship would be over.

Amazing race is very stressful on a couple. Yes. I couldn't imagine doing something like that. So being in a van with just me and Casey or the kids with us? No, I was making it one step easier and saying it was just you and Casey. The kids would be ridiculous in a van. That'd be so difficult. Yeah, they'd be hitting each other and shit but i love these conversion vans there's there's all they're all different levels and and it's so

i'm always so interested in how people like do their layout and and what they choose to put in there and whatnot and people go crazy with it yeah there's there's a million different ways you can make them it just kind of all depends on your needs. It's like, you know on Instagram, the second you start clicking on something and then it just sends you the mother load? My feed for a while was just like 90% conversion bands. Yeah, that's my girlfriend's Instagram right now. Yeah, there you go.

She just looks at conversion bands and just tells us all the ways we can improve ours. Yeah, that's fun though. We have a project together. It's not solar powered. Is it electrical or no? conversion vans and just tells us all the ways we can improve ours yeah that's fun though it's it's not solar powered is it electrical or no no no it's it's an older diesel van but we've got a solar panel on the roof that charges the external battery which powers all of our electronics and stuff you should look i mean i don't know if you're into it but look into there's this uh i just bought a smoker i don't know if you're into it and uh it it's a one that can travel with you and it folds up really nice and small and it plugs into your uh your electrical outlet or socket and so when the car is on

let me tell you something right now i've've been smoking some meats, man, but you can smoke other things. You can smoke other things. You can smoke other things. You can smoke vegetables. Did I ever tell you that Donald goes to extremes? He went from a week of vegetarianism to buying a smoker. No, it was more than a week. It was more than a week. It was a month and a half.

Can the solar... A month and a half. Respect it. the solar a month and a half respect it okay motherfucker oh my god not in front of billy please i'm sorry billy i'm sorry to see this billy um all right billy do you have a question for us my friend yes yes i do um so my first question uh i guess mainly for zach and joelle since you guys just got new dogs uh but donald and danelle or uh daniel please uh let me know if you guys have dogs as well and care to answer. But I love asking this to all my friends who have dogs. What TV or movie character do you feel like best represents your dog's personality?

And would you be willing to pay a lot of money to have one of those dog callers from the movie up to bring that personality to life wow wow uh joelle do you have an answer right off the bat first of all yes i would pay any amount of money to have my dog talk to me because i love her more than anything and i would love to hear what she's thinking in terms of who she is i don't know joelle you go i'm feeling it might be someone from rebels uh it's's actually Gabby O'Neil's character from Being Mary Jane. She's a badass, but she's also kind of a mess. Way to bring out my

movie wife. Yes, I love Gabby. Yeah, you know, Lions, she just turned six months, so she's got ten commands down. She's learning all the time. She's so sweet. We're getting so much better at the leash. But, you know, there's times where she down. She's learning all the time. She's so sweet. We're getting so much better at the leash.

But, you know, then there's times where she's also a mess and she can't stop running around and she's tripping people. And when we meet dogs, she always wants to put her paw on their face. And I'm like, we don't have to. You could just sniff it and, like, you know, be gentle. And she's like, I must leap onto everything. So she's a bit of a mess, but she's also super intelligent and getting there so you know i'm also going to choose a gabby union character but from bring it on no i think um i picture of my dog like kimmy schmidt

okay very wide-eyed optimistic and silly because my dog's very funny. My dogs have a sense of humor. I'm sorry if you disagree. But my dog is funny. She knows she's being funny and she does funny shit. She's in the UK right now. I miss her. She's worldly, my dog. All right, next question, my friend.

Yeah, so my next question is more specific to Scrubs. One of my favorite um kind of scenes of any of the episodes is one that you guys just recently covered but my boss's free haircut at the end the speech that um dr kelsell gives whenever he kind of bursts through the door and says nothing worth having uh it comes easy uh it's something that i find myself always kind of watching and whenever i need a little bit of a pick- up, some inspiration, some motivation. My friend even sends it to me late nights when he's drunk sometimes, and he knows I need a pick me up. So I want to know, is there any particular TV or movie scenes that you guys find overly inspirational, motivational

that you'll watch anytime you guys need a little bit of pick me up or a little bit of motivation throughout your day that's a good question yeah at the end of the whiz lena horn sings uh believe in yourself lena horn's like the first black star in hollywood uh this movie comes out in 78 i think and so this is like her last hurrah and to get her her as a fully realized performer, because she had to go through a lot before she was like fully on her feet, singing a song that very much sounds like everyone's grandmother, just being like, listen, if you believe in yourself, you can go out there, you can conquer anything. Oh, oh, it just touches the spirit. It lifts you up. It's such a good feeling. It really makes you feel like you can conquer the world.

And I enjoy revisiting it. Donald, something from Star Wars I imagine maybe something that Yoda says in a swamp could it be do or do not there is no try that is one of my favorite speeches

I'm not going to lie that one and Obi-Wan Kenobi well the force is what what does he say the force is what... What does he say? Oh, my God. The force is what guides us. Well, whatever he says in the beginning. Let me see.

So when I really think about it, one of the greatest speeches, there's quite a few of them, but the one that comes to mind is Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday. His speech at the end when he's talking to the players. Yes. For some reason, that's one of those speeches. I know Al Pacino ain't a big football guy and he doesn he doesn't come across as a coach you know what I mean throughout this whole movie you know what I mean

but his conviction when he's talking to the players and telling them you know you go that extra mile for every inch you know when he really gets into it it's one of the most powerful speeches there is

ever in cinema and so that's one i watched quite a bit uh there are other ones i can't really think of one i'm thinking i mean i i happen to be looking at my shawshank redemption movie poster and and so what came to mind was like morgan's end monologue of shawshank and then when i thought about it i got goosebumps on my legs so i don't know if it's necessarily inspirational, but just I remember that monologue about when he finally gets freedom and then he finally goes and meets Andy Dufresne on the beach. Yeah. I don't know.

That's what came to my mind because I did a little bit of a – what's that Kevin Spacey movie where he walks – I did a little Usual Suspects when I looked up and saw the movie poster on my wall. But for me, it's never really, it's never really, I use Al Pacino as an example. It's never really the speech. It's always the music that really takes you over the top in those situations. You know what I mean?

And so there are quite a few moments. And E.T., when E.T.'s leaving, after Gertie says bye to him, and, you know, he's looking at Elliot, and Elliot goes, you know, he says, come, and Elliot goes, stay, all of that. Then the music gets. Bam, bam, bam. Ba-ba-ba. Bam, bam, bam. Bam, bam, bam.

Bam, bam, bam. Da-da-da-da-da-da. That shit is fire. And that's always what grabs me. When you find that bright spot to help you get through your day, it's powerful.

We're in Washington right now. It's time for people who live in Vans favorite segment, Donald. It's time to fix your life. All right. It's all about you now. We're here to help. Thank you all. Yeah, my fix your life is surprisingly about moving in with my girlfriend.

Although we've been living in a van together, we don't actually live together at home, but we were planning on moving in together for the first time we get back. I'm somebody who's definitely had my fair share of commitment issues when it comes to relationships from time to time. So I am freaking out a little bit about moving in. So just love some advice about moving in with a significant other for the first time. You know, we talk about it, how we've done it in a van, but the kind of advantage of being in a van is that we're always traveling and seeing new places. And I think that kind of energy may draw away from some of the tension that we have of always spending time together. And it's a little bit of a different story when you're sharing a house for the first

time. So yeah, we'd love your guys' advice on kind of how to make that work and kind of how to get over that anxiety of the commitment of moving in with somebody. Well, both Donald and I have both moved in and out with several women. Yes, this is true. This is true. Keep the boxes. I'm just kidding. Um, no,

I'm just, no, that's good advice. That's good advice for a different, for a different reason entirely. But you know, after you guys give your answers, I have my own answer for this.

I thought you were agreeing with the funny answer. Cause I'm moving out. Spoiler alert. Billy, that's a perfect segue into what you're saying. It's not like you're getting married. You're just moving in together. Right. Keep the boxes, A.

And B, I think just fold them up. Put them in the garage behind some cans. I think one of the smartest things you can do, you mentioned house, so it won't be a tiny apartment, right? That's right, yeah. quote unquote, office or her hangout room and you have your man cave or whatever it is. I think a space that's not the bedroom that you can each call your own, again, if you have the square footage, is really, really healthy. Because sometimes you just want to be alone and the shared bedroom isn't the right spot, you know, obviously, because you can both be in there. Sometimes you just kind of miss having your own bedroom.

And you don't really have that in a relationship. So if you have the square footage, I think being able to say like, okay, that's, you know, that's your office. That's your room. This is my area, you know. I think to be able to sort of retreat to your own space. And if the person is messier than you, they can keep that room however the hell they want. So they have they have a each have your a space that you can kind of claim as your your corner, if you will. Donald, your thoughts? I mean, sure. That's one way to do it.

Another way to do it is to not worry about it. If you guys want to live together, live together. If you really don't want to live with her, you'll know right away when she says, let's do it. And you say to yourself, no, I don't want to do it. You know if you want to do it or not. All of that stuff is bullcrap. But it's like, I'm so hesitant because I don't know. You know whether you want to do it or not. Well,

it's one that you can have anxiety about it. And then, but, but anxiety can be, can, can also be excitement. You know, it's somewhere between that.

I'm excited about it, but I'm nervous about it. I think it's legitimate to feel all those feelings. I knew for a fact that I wanted to move in with my wife. I knew it. But when she moved in and started taking out all, like throwing all your Legos away and saying these arcade games. She did not throw any of my Lego away.

Okay. When she came. There's no such thing as Legos. It's Lego. Calm down. That's plural too. Calm down. Calm down.

Okay. Here we go. Here we go. Calm down. When she came in and said, these Legos got to get off the dining room table and these arcade games gotta go and this poker table's getting the fuck

out of here did you have any thoughts of like oh no no it's what I wanted I was ready for that you know what I mean I knew that that's what I wanted do I miss the video games do I miss the Lego do I miss the video games? Do I miss the Lego?

Do I miss the poker table? Yes. Yes, I do. But I love my wife and kids. Yes. Oh, no, don't go get. This is the level you want to get to, Billy, being so pee whipped that you can't leave your wife for a simple podcast. Well, I know Daniel just moved in with his lady.

What advice do you have? Yeah, I have some advice for you. Let's say, are you guys furnishing an entire place? No. You have stuff already? Yeah, we're lucky. Her mom actually has a place that we're renting from her mom. So it's already furnished.

So yeah, it's a good situation for that. Well, my main advice is going to be, when you move in together, take the first month to set up everything. Like if it means you're putting off every plan that you're going to have, like just set up everything in the first month. So you don't leave anything hanging around. Like we're dealing with a dresser that we ordered months ago.

That was back ordered that we finally got that we don't like that. We're now returning. We are still without a fucking dresser to put our clothes in and it sucks and it's like a piece of tension because we don't have this one thing covered it's not because we didn't handle it it's because everything was back ordered then we got it and it wasn't what we wanted etc blah blah blah like there's a lot of things to get in the way but if you can do everything you can to set up everything in your house in the first month, you will be so much happier. You won't have let anything hang on. There won't be this like lingering tension about

you want to get this thing done or that thing done. Just set everything up in the first month. Just get it all done as fast as you possibly can so that you can continue living your life. And what about the boxes? You said you were going to say something about boxes. Keep the boxes. The reason that I'm saying keep the boxes is not so that you can move out quickly. It's so that in case you don't like something, you can return it and you still have the original box. Because a lot of these furniture companies are going to nickel and dime you about stuff like, oh, well, it's not returned in the original box. And you'll get something with white glove delivery and they'll take the boxes and you'll be like, oh, great, they threw away the trash. But then the return policy is so specific about how you have to return the thing in the original box, even our white glove delivery service took the fucking boxes away we found a raw nerve we found a raw

nerve with dan now billy i have an idea an exercise you could do when you're in your van together um pooping in a bucket you could turn to her and say honey um no i'm being serious you could say um hey let's talk about things that are pet peeves of yours before we move in together that are little things like you know whatever the stereotypic toilet seat or the way that the toilet paper should go over not under or or any little minutia what are things my darling sweetheart whom i love so much – It sounds a little condescending. I'm adding the twist on it. Billy will say it much kinder. What are things that when you live with a roommate, whether it was a part of a lover or a friend, that have irked you before?

Because I don't want to do those things. Right. And then she can have her turn and you can make it funny. You guys can joke about it, make a list. And then she can have her turn and you can make it funny. You guys can joke about it, make a list. But I think going into it being like, I had no idea that you really fucking hate it when anyone leaves, you know, whatever,

dishes in the sink, whatever it is. And then you get like maybe 10 things out of the way. It's like, you're clear on those things. Yeah, I joked with her that, cause I'm very messy, that she's gonna have to get me a shot caller. And every single time I'm very messy that she's going to have to get me a shock collar and every single time I do something wrong she's just going to have to buzz me until I

was finally trained into cleaning up after myself and not being so messy. That would make me want to move in with you right away. I get to shock you electrically every time you do something I don't like. I'm moving in. Or maybe just know going into it you can't be messy or it's going to be a friction.

So just like you have to take on cohabitation with knowing you're going to make some – what's the word? Compromises. Compromises, yeah. You're going to make some compromises. You don't want to – if you want it to go well, I feel like couples often argue about stuff that's so trivial just because they never really worked it out. You don't want to say anything because

let's not sweat the small stuff, but then it builds and you become resentful and you're like, motherfucker, change the toilet roll. I have a sticker. I have a post-it note on my computer that says, stop yelling. Because sometimes I play video games. Not yell, but i definitely vocalize my video game frustration oh i thought you meant yelling at her not about you no no i thought you

yell at her you had to put up a post-it saying don't yell whoa no absolutely not my my kid and you might have a lot of do you do a lot of this daniel no no no it's not like that it's you have rage do you do a lot of rage quitting it's not It's not raging as much as it is very excitedly yelling about things that are about to happen. Oh, I thought you were the type of person that's like, what do you mean? I just did the thing with the thing 20 times. No, I think it's more like the magic mojai potion didn't work. If you saw our D&D stream from a couple days ago, you would know that anytime we get caught by a trap or something, my character gets very upset.

You've walked into a trap again? What were you thinking? Anyway. Is your character British, General? Yeah, yeah, Gorth Clamley. He's a bard, halfling bard. He's British. Okay, wait, wait, one more question.

Is this a video game or you're playing the board game D&D? We're playing the board game D&D, but we play with what's called a virtual tabletop where it all takes place on a computer. So we're all on Zoom together. Wow. That's how we got through the quarantine. Come on now. That's how you got through the quarantine? Virtual tabletops, yes.

It's great. It's the future, babe. You're invited every Wednesday. You're welcome. And hey, Billy, if you're ever in Southern California, I have a couch for you when things don't work out. Thank you. Yeah, yeah, I might need that.

Just drive over. You don't have to poop in a bucket, and you can just stay on my couch. Okay, that would be a relief. I don't like pooping in buckets. Listen, all kidding aside, you know, if you guys are willing to live in a van together and go through this, I have a feeling you'll do great in a house. You know what I mean? I agree.

Yeah, I'm hopeful. And Daniel, I think you're right with getting everything set up beforehand. One thing we learned about living in a van is that minor annoyances become big annoyances over time. And so eliminating those makes life a lot easier. So I think that's a great one. And do my list thing. I'm telling you, it's going to be good,

Billy. Yeah, I will say, honey, darling, what are some things that really annoy you about cohabitating with someone? Yeah, I'll have her write that right now.

And then you do yours and then you could like, make it funny. Do it over a drink. It would be hilarious if it's like, if it turns out to be like Elliot in this this episode where we're like right away within four minutes of her telling him what pisses her off he's like i can't live with this woman yeah no and in in in the show in the episode in the episode because of a sexual, a sexual fantasy. Oh yes. So with the new boyfriend.

Yeah. He tells her and he tells her in private and five minutes later, she, she's like, what the fuck? And they break up. And we never, ever learn what he said.

We never know what his twisted fantasy was. All right, Billy, good luck. And thanks for coming on. And, and we did it. And Hey, before I go, just got to say thank you for letting you know the impact that scrubs had on my life. Told you all this, but when I was 20 years old, I was diagnosed with a pretty serious heart condition. Actually, a heart condition that the I learned the real JD actually treats in its current practice. So that was kind of a fun fact. real JD actually treats in its current practice. So that was kind of a fun fact. But I spent the next couple of years in and out of hospitals a lot, even having heart surgery when I was 24.

And one thing that always helped me through every time I'd have to go to the hospital or a doctor because I felt, you know, pretty scared and nervous is that I would always just imagine that I was on an episode of Scrubs. And it would always make me feel that I was a little bit better. And I was always just waiting for, you know, Dr. Dorian or Dr. Turk to come around the corner and tell me everything was going to be all right. So thank you guys so much for everything you're doing. You're very sweet. Getting us through hard times. You're very sweet.

And I'm so happy that you're okay now. You look fantastic. Yeah, doing great. So thank you guys so much. Our pleasure. It's such a pleasure to meet you all. Thanks for coming on, brother. Thank you so much.

All right. Have a good one. All right, guys. And that's our show. Our pleasure. Thanks for coming on, brother. Thank you so much. All right. Have a good one. All right, guys. And that's our show. I think we did it, Donald, right? I'm pretty sure we did it. All right. That was really cool, man.

You know, it's always great to hear from fans and listeners. You know, I have comforts that I turn to when I'm down and out and stuff like that. And it's really cool to be a part of something that so many people use as a comfort. That's so true. We hear that all the time. And every time I hear it, it brings a giant smile on my face that we brought anyone any amount of comfort. All right. We love you.

And we hope you're happy. We hope this finds you smiling. And we'll see you next time. Donald. Five, six, seven, eight. The stories that we all should know. So gather round to hear our, gather round to hear our Scrubs Rewatch Show with Zach and Dino. Mm-hmm. Hi, friends. I'm Danielle Robay.
