Join me on season three of Minnie Questions on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite podcasts. Seven questions, limitless answers. All right. So we have something pretty insane
Starting point is 00:02:12 to announce. I can't believe it myself. The fact that we pulled this off is crazy. I cannot. I'm seriously, you guys, I don't believe this, but it happened. Hyundai, as you know, is one of our sponsors and they are amazing to work with, and they said to us, what would you like to do for your fans? Is there anything, like, big and bold you'd like to do? And we said, thinking that they would laugh,
Starting point is 00:02:36 we said, we'd like to give them a Hyundai. And they said... Just like that, too. Pretty much, we were like, well, let's just go with the obvious thing. Give someone who needs a car a car. And they were like, okay. So we
Starting point is 00:02:52 can't really believe it, but Hyundai is going to give someone in need of a car a car. One of our listeners. That's right. For real. No doubt. So you have until Friday, September 17th, to get your submissions in. Yes real. No doubt. So you have until Friday, September 17th to get your submissions in. Yes, this is quick.
Starting point is 00:03:08 This is quick, okay? I don't know why it's quick, but that's what Hyundai decided. It had to be quick. I don't know why. Friday, September 17th at midnight Pacific time. You have to have your submission in by then. Just go to fakedoxundaygiveaway.com. That's fakedocshundaygiveaway.com.
Starting point is 00:03:34 And what you're going to do is, in 100 words or less, tell us why you or someone you love really needs a car. Now, please don't go to this and waste anybody's time if you don't really need a car or if you have a car and it's just a bad car. This is for people whose lives would really be changed. You can get that job that you wanted to get. You can go take care of that relative that you need to take care of. Someone whose life would substantially be changed if they were to be given a car, a Hyundai, by Zach and Donald and fake doctors. This is real. I can't believe it. I know you're thinking. I cannot believe we pulled this off, dude. I can't. So some lucky winner who goes to fakedoxhyundaigiveaway.com and tells us in a
Starting point is 00:04:24 hundred words or less, why you should be the recipient or someone you love should be the recipient of this Hyundai. You're going to win a car and it's free and it's pretty amazing. Right? You will. Yeah, totally. It's a Tucson.
Starting point is 00:04:36 It's the one Donald was driving. Oh, it's the Tucson. It's the Tucson. It's not even like a smaller Tucson. It's the new Hyundai Tucson. The new Hyundai Tucson. So seriously, thanks to everybody at Hyundai.
Starting point is 00:04:47 We can't believe this. Of course, what you say will be vetted. So don't be like, we could just tell them that. No, don't do that. It's all going to be vetted. But I feel like this is a really, Don and I had this idea, like there's somebody out there
Starting point is 00:05:00 whose life could really be changed for the better, who can't get to the job that they wish they could have because they don't have a car or they can't visit that relative or whatever the story is. If that's you, please go to fakedoxhundaygiveaway.com. You have to have your submission in by Friday, September 17th at midnight Pacific time.

Starting point is 00:06:34 Hi. Hi, friends. Aloha. How you doing there, Adeyashun? I'm well. How are you, Zach? Is that your dog that's barking? That is my dog that's barking. I like your hoodie, it's got mouse ears on it.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Well, you know me and the mouse. You know how much I love the mouse. Right, but this is a really cool sweatshirt for you listeners at home. It has a hoodie, and then on the hoodie are two hoodie ears for me. Got it at Disneyland. Yeah, it looks good on you. You look good. By the way, you are so skinny in this episode.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Yeah, I noticed that too. You're working out, your character's in the gym, but you're like, I mean, you look better than Taye Diggs. I mean, I don't mean to sound religious, but better than Taye Diggs. That's nuts. Nothing is better than Taye Diggs. That's nuts. Nothing is better than Taye Diggs. And I will fight anyone to the death. In my humble opinion, you look more handsome and- Blasphemy!
Starting point is 00:07:34 Than the Taye Diggs. Blasphemy. By the way, this episode has so much fucking funny shit in it. I laughed out loud. I laughed quite a bit also. I will say this. I look back a bit also. I will say this. I look back at this, and I remember thinking to myself, wow, I thought I was so chubby when making this.
Starting point is 00:07:52 You know what I mean? Then you might have body dysmorphia. No, it all boils down to remember the Titans. That's the most ripped I had ever been in my life up until Kick kick-ass 2 and so to were you more ripped in kick-ass 2 oh i'm in kick-ass 2 i was man ripped and remember the titans i was a little boy you know what i mean so it's like you get ripped and the abs don't look the way you want them to look they're kind of you know what i mean in kick-ass 2 and what's crazy is in kick-ass 2 i never take off my shirt or
Starting point is 00:08:25 anything like that but because i wanted to look feel like a superhero i got in sick shape right it gave you a good rationalization to get ripped that was real ripped that was like man ripped where the the abs looked like squares and not little squiggly lines across you know what i mean like that was that real shit that was like yeah anyway um but i remember thinking i was so so because of that because of uh because of remember the titans not being able you know having a flat stomach and being toned and everything like that was was fine but it wasn't in it wasn't like you know i i i shitted on myself and I gave myself such a complex because I felt like it wasn't good enough. Like, remember the Titans at that point was, that was peak, that was fighting weight.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Well, I want you to know that I'm watching this episode and there is your character in the gym. But even separately aside, I noticed that you looked particularly good. I'm trying again, man. We all try. You know what's great? Go ahead. Is that I have the rest of my life to try and figure this out. Yeah. You know what I mean? Amen.
Starting point is 00:09:36 You know what I mean? I have the rest of my life to try and figure this out. You know, it just takes commitment. And if you fall back off the horse, you can get your ass right back on. That's right. I went up to Hudson, New York, which I highly recommend to anyone who visits the East Coast. It's two hours north of Manhattan, and you can take a train there or drive there.
Starting point is 00:09:57 And it's this beautiful little cute town. And they have great restaurants and little inns. And a good friend of mine owns a bar there that you should go visit called Back Bar. Anyway, it was really, really cool. And I thought of it because I certainly was eating like a fool and drinking like a fool and came back feeling like I was four months pregnant. Really? But I was back in the gym today, baby.
Starting point is 00:10:23 Good for you. Even though it hurt, I had the most amazing meals, and the place is awesome, and it's very romantic. I highly recommend it. I don't know why I'm doing an ad for Hudson right now, but it's a great place to visit. But anyway, the point is we all have those weekends where we eat our weight in naughty food and drink,
Starting point is 00:10:43 and then what happens Monday morning? Back on the wagon, Donald Faison. Good for you. By the way, my body is very made fun of in this episode. And you look great. That's the thing, though. No, I was not exercising. I wasn't overweight. Obviously, I was, you know, doughy, if you will.
Starting point is 00:11:00 But I wasn't that badly overweight. But I wasn't going to the gym, obviously. And there's no tone to my body. The whole joke is that next to Keith, who's a ripped Adonis with his dynamite areolas. Is this where dynamite areolas comes from? Yes, this is the episode where you think you're better than me, Keith, with your rock-hard abs and your dynamite areolas.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Hey, Joelle. Hi, Joelle. Hi, guys. I think that's I think I made that line up, I'm proud to say, because it's pretty funny. Well, it's traveled all the way over to Fake Doctors Real Friends. That's like one of the early episodes. You talk about my areolas
Starting point is 00:11:40 and you call them dynamite areolas. Well, you have melted Hershey's Kisses, which are beautiful, but you think you're better than me, Keith, with your rock hard abs and your dynamite areolas. Well, you have melted Hershey's Kisses, which are beautiful, but you think you're better than me, Keith, with your rock-hard abs and your dynamite areolas? Like, why is JD commenting on another man's areolas? Because he's jealous. He wants them. Keith looks good, though, I got to say. He does, yeah. Let's keep that 100.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Yeah, I want to say that... Can we jump off topic real quick? I know we're trying to stick to time. we're all in different locations before we do. Is that what you're going to jump off? All of our backgrounds are now officially different. Completely different. Yep. Daniel, you're on vacation somewhere?
Starting point is 00:12:15 I am actually returning from vacation, and I'll keep this section short. But while I was on vacation, I was exposed to someone who was exposed to someone unvaccinated who tested positive for COVID. Didn't find out till a couple of days later. So I'm currently quarantining at my parents' house before I go back to my place with my
Starting point is 00:12:33 lovely Stephanie. OK, but have you been tested and don't have it so far? I'm getting tested tomorrow. I'm waiting till five days after exposure. I'm getting a PCR test tomorrow morning and then I'll find out. OK, and Joelle, are you just in your own kitchen but at a different angle or something? Yes, this is my kitchen. My dog is up from a nap.
Starting point is 00:12:50 She's not allowed in my room. My brother has to edit, so I'm pulling double duty. Dog parent duty and producer duty. We're getting it done. Okay. And Donald's in his new office and I'm in my apartment. It's a whole new world. Don't you dare close your eyes. A whole new thing. Hold your breath. close your eyes. A whole new thing.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Hold your breath. It gets better. No one to tell us no. And where to go. Say we're only dreaming. A whole new world. Listen, Broadway. You didn't bring that hard down.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Oh, wow. Delta or not, Broadway is coming back And I am going to be the first in line Mofos Don't you dare close your eyes Joelle did you see that Sarah Bareilles Posted a video Of them at first rehearsal
Starting point is 00:13:38 The company Singing opening up The opening song of Waitress Nope but I'm checking it out as soon as we wrap up here. I reposted it on my Instagram and I was like, I'm already waiting outside. It was so exciting. And there's another video that was very moving.
Starting point is 00:13:55 This young African-American stage manager is making an announcement to the audience. You can't see the audience. You only see him. You can search for this online. But he makes the announcement. He goes, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the very first production of Broadway
Starting point is 00:14:12 post-pandemic. And the crowd, you can hear them go crazy. And he kind of gets moved. And you see that he's looking at the monitor and he goes, it turns to his friend. He goes, oh my God, they're giving it a standing ovation. And it was just so heartwarming and moving that broadway is is doing everything it can to come
Starting point is 00:14:28 back i'm excited like not that i was going to broadway a lot back in the day but i'm just excited that you know there are a lot of actors and actresses and people who work behind the scenes and everything who are out of jobs for musicians and everything, who are out of jobs for a really long time. And it's an art form, and I respect every art form. And also, I have a personal stake in it also. My mother is an agent to so many fabulous and wonderful Broadway performers. And so, you know, I'm really excited for this form of expression to have its chance again.
Starting point is 00:15:06 And I feel like because of pandemic, it's going to have a big opportunity. Yes. Because people are looking for something. Yes. And looking for something different. Absolutely. And they did for two years of not seeing shows. Two years almost of not seeing shows.
Starting point is 00:15:20 And you have to show your vax card to go. So if you're, for some reason, one of those people who doesn't want to get vaxed, maybe seeing a Broadway show will be your raison. Hopefully. Yeah, please. But I'm very excited to go see Waitress and to see everything. Is she going to break out into, I'm not going to write you a love song in the middle of Waitress? No, I don't think you understand how good
Starting point is 00:15:45 Waitress is and also how Sara Bareilles is such a savant that not only did she write the music and lyrics for the show, but has taken to starring in it and blowing people away with her acting ability. I sound like Sara's publicist, but she is a really
Starting point is 00:16:02 really talented human being. So no write to a love song? No, she's a really, really talented human being. So no, no, no, right. No, she's not going to break into her, her album. Shit. All right, let's get into the show, baby girl. Before we get into the show, I just wanted to talk about one more thing with you. I just completed my first writer's room ever.
Starting point is 00:16:18 Yay! Congratulations! Thunders applause, Daniel Orzac. Yes! This is the hardest thing ever in the history of things. And it was a lot of fun. But to simplify something that you spent so much time thinking about is probably one of the hardest things so far that I've had to do.
Starting point is 00:16:43 And we're not even ready. It's a whole new chapter of your career because you've never done it. Just quickly, for people who aren't in the business, a writer's room is the obvious. It's when writers of a show sit around a table or, in this case, in these days, often a Zoom and create something together under the leadership of a leader who's called the showrunner. In this case, that's Donald. Well, I who's called the showrunner. In this case, that's Donald. Well, I'm not necessarily the showrunner. Right now, it was pretty much we were all trying to figure out how to do it.
Starting point is 00:17:15 The budget isn't- It's your baby, so you probably were leading. Yes, but I'm also taking, you know, it's also my first writer's room, so I'm also taking the lead from people who have been in writer's rooms before. Good. So was it successful? How many episodes did you write? We were supposed to come up with 10 episodes. We wrote, to be careful, something like 17 episodes and then three premises.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Wow. Congratulations. No, sorry, 16 and four. Something like that. I could be wrong. That is no small feat. I have a bunch of papers in front of me now. I'm very proud of you.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Sorry, 15. 15. I'm very proud of you. Thank you very much. It's one of the most difficult things ever because then after you come up with the idea, it's like, how do I make this two minutes now? You know what I mean? And then after making, you know, then how do I make it read like it's two minutes also? Because, you know, to make it two minutes, you can edit and you can cut and you can snip and you can do a bunch of things. But how do I make it read like it's two minutes also?
Starting point is 00:18:18 You know, learning that once you add and then and then and then, you're already, you've lost. You're already too far ahead like just so many rules in this in in so that each episode will be two minutes long two minutes long each episode is two minutes long and it's a it's
Starting point is 00:18:38 it's a you know and it's do I have a part or is it going to be just absolutely it's absolutely you I'm gonna I'm gonna hit up Justin Long also, but you absolutely have a part. I know, but Justin Long is starting to get a little too deep into a friendship with you, and I'm not exactly loving it. I could show you so many pictures of how these hoes ain't loyal, Joel and Daniel. I see you both laughing, but Zach Graff is, these hoes ain't loyal.
Starting point is 00:19:05 This ho is loyal. This is one loyal ho. Motherfucker, you went and got the ultimate and went after freaking Morgan Freeman. I got pictures of you and Morgan. I got pictures of you and motherfucking Hova. I got pictures of you and motherfucking Diddy. Like, yeah, dude, this dude's got like a bunch of- No, those are, first of all, those men don't...
Starting point is 00:19:26 I don't want to hear this shit. This is how it works. These are the people that he tells you not to worry about. And then when the breakup happens, when the breakup happens, Morgan Freeman's going to be all up in my face like, stop calling him. Those men, Hova doesn't mean anything to me next to you, baby.
Starting point is 00:19:52 All right. Let's get into this. This is a very, very, very funny episode. I don't even remember shooting any of it. And it's high lyrics. Five, six, seven, eight. And it's High Lyrics 566. Here's some stories about a show we made. About a bunch of docs and nurses and a janitor who loved to hate. I said here's some stories that we all should know.
Starting point is 00:20:16 So gather round to hear our, gather round to hear our Scrubs Rewatch Show with Zach and Donald. I don't remember any of it. Not one part of this episode. I don't. This was like watching something anew. Yes. And I thought I was going to remember it, too, because I remember the title, My Buddy's Booty.
Starting point is 00:20:45 I thought because of your juicy ass that it was referring to your booty that would have been nice it's an episode I'd like to watch by the way there was this meme of all the Olympic cyclers did you see that picture oh my god you want to talk about chunky asses dude
Starting point is 00:20:59 all the Olympic cyclers have the juiciest asses and someone created a meme that says damn I need to cycle. True. They got some chunky boots. Speaking of cycling, I almost died on my bike today. Biking in New York was always a double black diamond sport. But I got to tell you, post-pandemic, it is insanity.
Starting point is 00:21:24 What's going on? Well, there are so many more delivery men. I assume what happened is during the pandemic, the need for food delivery guys surged, right? And they all ride electric bicycles. Now, these are not normal electric bicycles. These are like essentially fucking motor scooters, but they're electric bicycles. They fly. And these dudes, I respect their hustle.
Starting point is 00:21:46 They're going to get the cash, but they are insane. And forget any rules. The police of New York couldn't possibly police this. So every which way on the street, and they fly. And then you got tourists on city bikes going the wrong way, and nobody's wearing helmets. It's insanity. And it's like Frogger
Starting point is 00:22:08 on acid, but you die. And I almost died today. I'm glad you didn't. I'm so happy you're still here. I think I read that one pedestrian dies a day in Manhattan. See, that's enough for me
Starting point is 00:22:24 to stop freaking going outside. I don't know if that's a fact I made up, but I heard that a pedestrian a day dies a day in Manhattan. I don't know if that's true. See, that's enough for me to stop freaking going outside. Joel, can you look that up? I don't know if that's a fact I made up, but I heard that a pedestrian a day dies. That is enough to stop me from going outside. Right there. Well, it's very... Trust me, I'm a good bicycler. I've been riding in Manhattan for many, many, many years,
Starting point is 00:22:40 but I definitely notice that... Oh, and they also introduced this other insane thing. I can't believe the fucking government let this through, but they also have these elect full like scooters, like JD's scooter, but it's electric and you just, it has an app and you swipe your fucking app and you start up the scooter. So people who don't know what they're doing are driving those around the city.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Now it's fucking like Sasha scooter or like, yes, not in, but they're electric, but those around the city now it's fucking wait like sasha scooter or like yes not but they're electric but they look like sasha and dudes are on the bike paths with them going the wrong way insane dude it's wild it's so advanced i helmet up and everything but today yeah you have to got it you have really appreciate appreciate that. I got lights on my shit, too. Nice. Speaking of helmeting up, helmeting up, Gary Busey's on the show. Gary Busey's back. This episode is so ridiculous. Directed by Randall Winston.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Was this Randall's first episode? I believe this is his first episode. What a great job. And he has a great little transition that happens later on in the show with the sneakers and the hanging. We'll get to that, I'm sure. We'll get to that. But Randall Winston, as you know, he's been on the show. He was our line producer. We told you what that was about. That's mostly the guy who's looking at the money and dealing with the exact money and budget, written by Mark Stegman, one of our very funny writers.
Starting point is 00:24:01 But this was Randall's first episode he directed, I believe. Or was it second? Joelle, double check that for me, too. But anyway, the episode starts. JD and Elliot are bonding again. And JD's getting over breaking up with Julie. And Elliot apparently thinks she also thinks she looks like Gary Busey because she covers her face with a Gary Busey picture. I think she covers the face with a Gary B bucey picture i think she covers the face
Starting point is 00:24:25 with gary with the gary bucey picture and you're like oh now it's you and me and she's like what the fuck are you talking about it's gary bucey i don't think she covers it trying to make it seem like it's her hold on one second um joelle i'm looking at what you said pedestrian deaths in the city have surged 58% so far in 2021. So you know I'm not fucking lying. Staying home now. Compared to the same period in 2020. Oh, but you're saying the total deaths is...
Starting point is 00:24:54 What does that mean? 41 deaths from 26? Oh, it's now 41. So far in 2021, it's 41. So not quite one a day, but still a lot. Oh. Oh, but... So 41... Oh, but it's halfway through the year. So that would roughly a lot. Oh, oh, but so 41.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Oh, but it's halfway through the year. So that would that would roughly be 80. OK, I was wrong. But we're headed towards 80 deaths, pedestrian deaths for 2021. Yes. And this is Randall's second episode. Yes, that's what I'm telling you. And this is Randall's second directorial project.
Starting point is 00:25:22 My figure that I once heard might be New York City, meaning all five boroughs. Anyway, I'm telling you, C surged 58%. So you get, I'm not lying. It's fucking nuts out there. Be careful when you're in New York. You gotta look for trees. I once stepped into the street once, and I had looked the proper
Starting point is 00:25:48 way, because the streets are all one way, and a biker yelled at me, he goes, you gotta look both ways, and he was going the wrong way, and I was like, I had to bite my fist. Yeah, you did. Alright, so Elliot doesn't know how to pull pranks, and she throws... She's really bad, she
Starting point is 00:26:03 throws a raccoon into the shower with you. She throws a raccoon into the shower with you. She throws a raccoon into the shower, which is, first of all, so many questions. Where did Elliot get this raccoon? Right. But kudos to the stuntman. I don't know which one of the fellas it was, but he took a nice fucking hit on that cabinet
Starting point is 00:26:19 with that, went under the shower curtain. Not only that, he then was still conscious enough to push the flap down, the shower curtain down, because the wind was blowing the shower curtain, and it looked like the dangle was about to be seen. Oh, really? Well, it wouldn't have been my peep. It would have been his.
Starting point is 00:26:40 But that was a very impressive hit with clearly no vision. I mean, he couldn't see. So thank you, Mr. Stuntman, for making me look good. Well done. I don't know which one it was. So then this episode has so many wacky stunts in it. So then I'm pulling Elliot on rollerblades with a water ski rope behind my scooter. This is called scooterblading.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Right. And the stunt woman, the stunt woman, I'm like fucking Bobby Brady, the stunt woman who leaps over the stretcher is an exact match for Sarah. I went back frame by frame. It's obviously not Sarah because it's a pretty major stunt,
Starting point is 00:27:19 but you can't tell that it's not Sarah. Didn't you notice that, Donald? It didn't look like Sarah to me, but okay. Really? Yeah. It's rare. Usually when you have a stunt person, you'll see later with JD on rollerblades,
Starting point is 00:27:35 when it's going to be a stunt, you can tell because they start hiding their face, like with their arm a little bit, or they're ducking their head. But that woman does a giant rollerblade split jump, and she's showing her face. And I was was like there's no way that was sarah and i went back and i and i kind of went i went frame by frame and you can't you can't really tell they found a good they found a good one yeah they did unless that is sarah but i don't think that's sarah I don't think it's Sarah. I'm sure that's not Sarah. Sarah's not coordinated enough to risk that.
Starting point is 00:28:08 She can dance. She's pretty athletic. She's just never been on a team. I know, but if you look at the stunt, at first I went back and I went, oh, maybe she leapt over the camera with no rollerblades on. But no, it's a woman doing a split jump on rollerblades. I don't think it's Sarahades i don't think it's sarah i don't think it's sarah we could ask sarah no all right fucker
Starting point is 00:28:29 i'm just kidding i love that wacky canadian how about uh cox falling straight on his back um it made me realize that johnny c doesn't do a ton of physical comedy in the show. That wasn't his character. No, he does not. And I do believe Johnny C does have a bad back. This is around the time that your back started getting bad, too, also, though, isn't it? This is around the time of the hernia. This is around the time of the bad back. I don't think it was the time of the hernia, but definitely five years of running into shit to make America laugh started to take a toll on me.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Right. I remember all of a sudden you being like, dude, stop fucking around my back, my back, my back. Well, yeah, I mean, I definitely, I solved a bunch of issues I started to have with my back. And then I did have a hernia. I don't know if it was around this time. But, you know, I was not much of an athlete and not in much shape. But I really took a love to physical comedy and was trying to do as much of it as I could. And then, of course, some of that caught up.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Because if I was in shape and stretching and doing it all right, it probably would have been better. But I was doing none of that. I was just trying to make people laugh. Right on. As you should. So he falls right on his back but by the way not even a fantasy i mean that would really i mean you could really really really hurt yourself if cox if you did what cox did in the icu just to prove a point yes there are a lot
Starting point is 00:29:59 of moments in this show today i mean that we that we just watched, where I was like, okay, so none of this is going to ever track, and it all really happened. Yeah. But none of it will ever track. The Vader thing? One. How many piercings does JD have now? Well, he has all those piercings, and they very quickly disappear, right? Well, one doesn't very quickly disappear.
Starting point is 00:30:26 There's a callback at the end of the show. All right, so, J.D., you're jumping ahead. Not by much. J.D. goes and tries to hit on – J.D. and Elliot are both horny, and they both want booty calls. Yes. J.D. has heard that the woman who does piercings at the mall or wherever – Yeah, wherever it is.
Starting point is 00:30:45 That she's easy. So he tries to hit on her. Promiscuous. Promiscuous. He tries to hit on her and I go, maybe later you can show me where else you're pierced. And then I look down at her vagina, which is just so preposterously inappropriate.
Starting point is 00:31:01 And J.D. J.D. gets exactly what's coming to him because she wrestles him to the ground and pierces him all over his face and then his penis. Yes. And we learn
Starting point is 00:31:17 that he's got an emerald in his penis. I forgot what that's called. What's that called when you get a penis jewel? Joelle left the conversation. She's a specialist. Joelle's here. Prince Albert. Prince Albert. Now, Joelle, is a Prince Albert
Starting point is 00:31:33 just a piercing, or can it also be an emerald? And where does it go? It goes through the tip of the urethra? Well, a piercing can have an emerald in it. That is where it goes. Or you can get a Jacob's Ladder, which is where you're pierced up the shaft.
Starting point is 00:31:49 Whoa! Wait a second. A Jacob's Ladder is multiple piercings up the shaft? Yep. Also, what a thing to reference. Yeah! If you're a man listening to this, you might be holding your penis right now because the thought of it hurts.
Starting point is 00:32:08 I just yelled uncontrollably. So the Prince Albert goes through the tip, the urethra. Yep. So I'm assuming that's what JD got. Yes. And it's an emerald. It's a green emerald. So wait.
Starting point is 00:32:22 So at the end when the janitor has an emerald on the tip of his mop. Yes, he stole it when he and Cox broke into my home. This episode is so fucked up. So JD, sorry, so we're jumping around. But Cox and the janitor become drinking buddies. And after drinking one night, they break into JD's home. Yes.
Starting point is 00:32:48 And the janitor reveals that he often does this. And he does it a few times a week, he says. He likes to move stuff around, turn off my alarm, and occasionally cut my bangs. Yes. But what we also learn is that in moving my bed to the parking lot i'm apparently a very
Starting point is 00:33:08 very deep sleeper right the janitor removes the emerald jewel from my prince albert piercing yes and mounts it on his mop yes this is some bad shit fucking right i never put this together when we were making this show no i didn't realize out of sequence that's what we're learning from watching this in sequence how fucking bad shit season five is and i love it yeah it's i'm here for it i'm here for season five man i want to i i i i really i i think i don't know what happens in season six where the tone goes but season five is my favorite yeah so far it's my type of comedy where it's like how dare they how dare they do that because now they have to explain it but then now you don't have to explain it you know what it is dude it? It's like Bill was,
Starting point is 00:34:06 it was shocking what Bill could get away with season one through four with humor and then still circling around to heart. It was always like, wow, how does he do that? That's amazing. Now this motherfucker was like, let me see if I can push it further. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Because even at the end of this episode, which is bad shit, it ends with heart with Mrs. Wilk and everyone gathered around her bed. Yeah. Dude, he's masterful at it. Masterful. Listen, I'm going to reveal something that I haven't, and I'm sure you guys have probably picked up on it.
Starting point is 00:34:38 Up until about a week ago. Please be gay. No, no, no, no, no. Please be gay no no no no please be gay please be gay what? up until up until a week ago I had never watched
Starting point is 00:34:51 Ted Lasso I knew that I was hiding it from Bill what? yeah I had never watched an episode of Ted Lasso
Starting point is 00:34:57 wow and every time Bill was on I would be like oh and Ted Lasso's doing so well and I was sincerely pulling it out of my ass
Starting point is 00:35:04 I'll never believe anything you say ever again I'm sincerely pulling it out of my ass I'm good at it you were good I've watched all of them dude it's one of the best shows I've ever watched in my life man like in all honesty man like I'm sitting
Starting point is 00:35:18 there like and I'm in awe of one of my really good friends like I'm in awe like I can't believe it like part of me is like part of me is like like I watch Scr friends. I'm in awe. I can't believe it. Part of me is like, I watch Scrubs and I'm like, yeah, Scrubs is good and I was a part of it and it's changed my life and it's made me a very, very, very, very fortunate
Starting point is 00:35:34 person and it's given me a lot of great things. But watching Ted Lasso, I'm like, holy shit, dude. It's just great storytelling. Part of me is almost like, i can't believe bill did this you know what i mean like it's it's so fucking proud of him yeah i'm so proud of episode two is probably your favorite episode though right in all honesty in season one out of all of season one episode two truthfully is my favorite episode. How can you believe him?
Starting point is 00:36:06 I do believe him. I know. Joelle, come on. A, don't rain on my parade. And B, he has his sincere face on. I know his sincere face. I'm still learning. I cannot.
Starting point is 00:36:24 My wife, too. We caught up, and I'm pissed off that we caught up to where it's at. I know. You know what I mean? That's what happens. I'm sure the people listening feel that about Scrubs. It's like we feel it about shows we love. When it's over, you're like, but I miss them. You want to hang out with those people.
Starting point is 00:36:48 I felt that about Lasso when it ended, when season one ended. I was like, but I miss Roy. How great is Brett Goldstein? Brett is amazing. Brett is amazing. The kid who plays Jamie Tartt. Jamie Tartt. Jamie Tartt.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Dude, man, holy shit. Like, the whole cast, everybody. Everybody. Everybody's really good. They're all nominated. Every single one. But they should be. They should be, though.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Phil should have been. Yeah, of course. Yeah, man, it's so cool. I'm so happy to have a tiny piece of it. I feel so lucky to be amongst them. I'm just so impressed. I'm sincerely so impressed. I put it off and I put it off. I tried to watch the first episode once and I just didn't get the tone.
Starting point is 00:37:39 But I had only watched like five minutes of it. And then after the first episode was over, Casey and I went through three or four in one night. And then finished. I think what probably happened, if you recall, is that you got through the first one and you're like, I think I like it. And then you watched episode two. Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:37:59 And then the snowballed. Yeah, sure, sure, sure. That's exactly what happened. I already said episode two was my favorite episode of season one. I'm not going to disagree with you because you're smart and artistic and thoughtful. But I just want to say,
Starting point is 00:38:13 holy shit. Wow. What a great show. One. Two, Charlotte Lawrence posted pictures of herself in this blue dress. This all has scrubs related. She looks just like her mom, dude. Holy cow, she looks like Krista.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Really? It's like if Krista, if you were to rewind it back in time, it would be Krista instead of Charlotte. It's really impressive, and, you know. It's a shame that nothing works out for that family. Okay, we are going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back. When you find that bright spot to help you get through your day, it's powerful.

Hi, this is Shannon Doherty, host of the new podcast, Let's Be Clear with Shannon Doherty. You may know me from, let's see, 90210, Charmed, Mallrats, Heathers. Probably also know me from my stage four cancer diagnosis and sharing that journey with so many of you.

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. And to be honest, I'm still trying to find out what that is. And maybe together, we'll find it. It's going to 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. And we're back!
Starting point is 00:43:00 And we're back! We talked about the rock hard abs and keys dynamite areolas right and i turn around and i reveal that i've got scratches all down my back and the interns say what's that and i go those jason are the panicked scratches of the adolescent raccoon and i love that i say raccoon like That's not how I would normally pronounce raccoon. But you know what? It's just funnier to say raccoon. I was about to say, I have since adopted that way of saying raccoon.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Because raccoon is way funnier. Raccoon is just somehow way funnier. The scratches of the panicked adolescent raccoon. The scratches of the panicked adolescent raccoon. Okay, now the janitor, for some reason, now owns an A-Team van. A-Team van. He's got the A-Team van. For no reason. It's never explained.
Starting point is 00:43:55 But the janitor has purchased an A-Team van. Yes. For those of you who are too young to know, A-Team was an action show that I grew up loving and donald did too mr t b.a baraka and it was funny because it was a great show uh this this this underground team of mercenaries of mercenaries would solve it's like bad batch now it's the bad batch pretty much okay i don't understand that i know that's a star wars thing i don't know what it is. But it's like A-Team? Pretty much. Do they build something in the third act that saves the day?
Starting point is 00:44:31 No, they don't build anything in the third act, but they're on the run from the law. They're this badass group of mercenaries, and they're helping out people in need along the way. Oh, yeah. Well, that's the plot of A-Team. A-Team. Except along the way. Oh, yeah. Well, that's the plot of A-Team. A-Team. Except without the animation.
Starting point is 00:44:48 It's real. Anyway, I loved it. And it was funny because it was meant for kids. But there was so much gun play. They were always shooting it. But no one ever got shot. It was like in the cartoon G.I. Joe, how the plane explodes and everyone parachutes out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:02 No one ever. There was so much gunfire in A-Team, but no one ever got hit. Yeah. Right? I love it. Well, one time, one episode, face gets shot. They're on a plane and face gets shot.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Right, but it was probably like, oh, yeah, we talked about this, how they used to drug B.A. Baracus. Yeah. Mr. T, because Mr. T was afraid of flying. They would drug him. Yeah. They got him every time. Every time. I ain't getting on no plane, Hannibal. You ain't going to trick me him? Yeah. They got him every time. Every time.
Starting point is 00:45:25 I ain't getting on no plane, Hannibal. You ain't going to trick me this. Yeah. They drugged him. I don't know if you could do that today. I don't think you're allowed to dose your friends. I mean, yeah. Yeah, you are.
Starting point is 00:45:37 It's just not legal. I don't think in a show. I just don't think in a show. Oh, right. Got it. I understand. I'm saying in 2021, I think people would find objection to them dosing B.A. Barakas to knock him out. I don't think so. I don't think so if they're going to, like, Guatemala to save a village.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Oh, you're saying as long as it's for a good cause. As long as it's for a good cause, you can knock your friend out. All right. Well, watch A-Team. By the way, it probably still holds up if you have a young teenager. They might still like it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:46:11 I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:46:13 I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:46:15 I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:46:16 I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:46:16 I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:46:16 I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:46:16 I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it. I doubt it I love that show. That was a nice jam. That and Knight Rider were my favorites. Knight Rider is so good. You remember! Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Hasselhoff, you know, he was my hero. Dude. Hasselhoff's a good guy, by the way. He was really... Hasselhoff, out of nowhere... I mean, a lot of celebrity people reached out to Amanda, but David Hasselhoff randomly was one of them. He was, like, such a sweetheart. Like, let me know if there's ever anything I can do for you. And he was just... You know, it's funny, because he was a childhood hero of them. He was like such a sweetheart. Like, let me know if there's ever anything I can do for you.
Starting point is 00:47:06 He was just, you know, it's funny because he was a childhood hero of mine. A lot of younger people know him from Baywatch, which was sillier, but when we were kids he was the star of a very popular show called Knight Rider. And so it was just kind of cool that of all the celebrities, many of whom were lovely to Amanda,
Starting point is 00:47:21 he happened to be one of them. You know, there were no guns on Knight Rider either? Like Michael Knight never carried a gun? No, he just fought and had a magical car. Yeah. There's a famous quote in this episode, or meme I often see, it's like you're begging me to hate you.
Starting point is 00:47:44 I say that. So this is official, but Jordan, tell me if I'm saying it right, cuckolds Dr. Cox. Yeah, he doesn't seem to have any jealous bone in his body, Cox. No. Because she's always in front of him, a cuckold. I think that's right. Joelle, you're our expert on this thing.
Starting point is 00:48:04 So if that's when the man watches himself be cheated on? Yeah, essentially. Pretty much. But it's not cheating. It's not cheating. The man knows about it. Well, in a cuckold situation, the man is turned on by watching. Not necessarily turned on. The man just knows that I have to, like in some of the videos that I watch,
Starting point is 00:48:27 some of the men are like, I can't believe my wife is doing this. I know, but he's acting. Why is she doing this? I hate to break it to you, but that adult performer is acting, I believe. Oh. No, but Joelle is part of the- So there's no scenario where a woman could force a man to watch that situation happen. Well, then their relationship might be over.
Starting point is 00:48:49 I think the particular sexual kink, is that the term, Joelle? Yeah. Nice. Is that the man or woman, depending on the partner, is turned on by the act. Even if they, in some cases, they are humiliated on purpose. She says things like, your peep isn't as big as his.
Starting point is 00:49:12 You suck. Yeah, that's the, in the videos that I've seen when doing research about Tuckle. When doing research about this episode. That's what, that's pretty much how all of the videos go. I can't think of something I would of something that is less my thing.
Starting point is 00:49:26 Hey, kudos to you if you found your thing. But I do not want my woman cheating on me and making fun of my penis size. But hey, to each their own. Truly. This dick is so much better than yours. Look how it curves. Yours doesn't curve. Oh, my word.
Starting point is 00:49:50 Look at that glorious foreskin. Yours is gone, Jew. Oh, my God. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, my God. Where did he go? Who are you dating, dude?
Starting point is 00:50:02 Who are you dating? What you trying to get into one day or soon? Don't put me, don't put me, don't connect me to this shit. Oh my goodness. Oh yeah, I would not, I'm not into being a cuckold, I've decided. No, me neither. But now Johnny C, excuse me, Dr. Cox, I don't know that he's into being a cuckold. He just looks the other way.
Starting point is 00:50:23 He doesn't seem to care. Jordan is flirting with a young, very handsome man at the bar and she says they have to go because his dorm is going to close and she needs to be dropped off yes so did she pick him up at the bar did she bring them out on their date i don't know i don't know met him at the bar but he needs to get home because for some because he didn't recognize he doesn't know who doesn't know who Cox is when he's like, why is that man staring at me? And she's like, you should fight him. Right. But Jordan wants them to fight. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:54 For some reason, this boy's dorm closes at midnight. Yes. Which means he's- A bit of a plot hole. Well, I mean, that just means he's an undergrad, doesn't it? I mean, like- What? Well, nobody lives in
Starting point is 00:51:05 the dorm after sophomore season do they or do you still live in the dorm you're seeing no you can live in the dorm any year but but i never heard of a dorm that locks its doors at midnight maybe a religious school or something maybe maybe he maybe it's a better part of the story if he's in like religious school it is a better part of the story oh He's religious. Oh, my gosh. He's in the ministry. He's going to be coming to priest. I love it. Okay. So we're clear on that. So Cox is cockled a lot.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Cuckled a lot. I guess. Joelle, is that the correct thing? He's not. It doesn't seem to be. He just ignores it. He just ignores it. He's not into it.
Starting point is 00:51:41 It seems to me like Jordan never actually cheats on Cox. I feel like Jordan is just a giant flirt, and Cox has just come to terms, like, my wife needs to flirt in order to feel, like, sexy and empowered. So, whatever she's doing over there, fine by me. I don't know if she actually cheats on him. I will say this. She's hot as balls, so
Starting point is 00:51:57 I mean, I would be a little pissed off. I'd be like, I don't know. What did Jordan do to make him hate her so much i think he just not be sexually attracted to her i think he they have a sex life we know that's very active i think he just lets her flirt and ignores it and knows that she's not going to take action on it which is which i'm sure some men and women do too but that's not for me either no what's that called? Cuckold light?
Starting point is 00:52:26 Diet cuckold. Diet cuckold. Diet cuck and soon cuck zero. Cuck zero. Cuck zero. Oh, no. Diet cuck. Speaking of cuckold, speaking of cuckold, what's up with our cuckold two that were on the show?
Starting point is 00:52:47 Oh, right. With the dude. I do not have an update for them yet, but I can tap them to see how it's going. Oh, Joelle, please ask. Tell them we want them to come back on. We just want to know how it's going. Well, I want to know. I want to know.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Even if he hasn't had his turn hooking up with another woman I still kind of want to have them back on yeah I just want to know more I think about them and I want to just I just feel like they could be good recurring guests like once a season we just see what's going on in their lives
Starting point is 00:53:20 oh my god Shay Serrano and this couple and this couple. Every season we have Shay on once and we have this bizarre couple. Cuckold couple. Wild. Okay, so
Starting point is 00:53:36 JD... Let's talk about the albino radiologist. Did you not get this? So Carla and Elliot want the gym to have more equipment for females. For women, yes. Right. Now, I didn't realize that gym equipment is – when did gym equipment become –
Starting point is 00:54:02 Well, I think what I inferred was that it was all free weights, and women tend stereotypically to appreciate equipment that has the weights built into it. You can adjust the weight. The example they show at the end is they've got – what's this thing called? The elliptical. Right. I never thought of it as a as a as a male female thing either but but i but i think what they're setting up is that it's just like it's all free weights and and and dumbbell i
Starting point is 00:54:32 mean and dumbbells and and bars and stuff not stuff that women stereotypically use right and so uh So Turk comes up with a plan because the albino in radiology is named Jim. And Turk walks into the office and says, you know, that the albino in radiology, Jim, wants new equipment. Now, this is all to fool Carla because Cox has had an intervention with Turk and says are you an idiot this is the only place that we men can have to ourselves which doesn't really make any sense because I guess if there was an only freeway gym maybe it wouldn't have men in it but Cox says don't you dare
Starting point is 00:55:16 let women in there that's our male only zone and Turk listens to Cox and uses Jim from radiology to trick kelso into saying uh you tell uh what does he say uh there'll be no money for that you tell you there'll be no new equipment for that gym right something like that Something like that. Something like that. It's like a Three's Company misunderstanding.
Starting point is 00:55:47 The whole premise is built on a misunderstanding. When someone overhears something, you know? Right, yeah. And so Turk feels like he's out of the way. So I didn't know that there was one. There's now an albino in radiology. I didn't know about the other one. We never see him.
Starting point is 00:56:03 We never see him. But okay, so how about this caveman booty call fantasy? Hilarious. One of the fun – that shit had me laughing so hard. I think that's one of the funniest shits ever because I remember shooting this, and we couldn't get through it. We were laughing so hard, this woman and I and Bill. I just remember – because what's so funny is that she's full cavewoman speak,
Starting point is 00:56:23 and I'm modern day. Yes. But I'm like, look, I have a lot going on. Hey, you. He's trying to sneak out of the cave. Doesn't even remember her name, really. Hey, you. Hey, you.
Starting point is 00:56:35 I have a lot going on. My brother ate my foot. There's like three things that were going on. A bird captured my sister and she goes hungry yeah I gotta go oh

Hi, this is Shannon Doherty, host of the new podcast, Let's Be Clear with Shannon Doherty. You may know me from, let's see, 90210, Charmed, Mallrats, Heathers. charmed mall rats, heathers, 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. 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 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. And to be honest, I'm still trying to find out what that is.
Starting point is 01:00:56 And maybe together, we'll find it. It's going to be a wild ride. So I hope that you all tune in. Listen to Let's Be Clear shannon doherty on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts if anybody ever says hey you to you it's because they forgot your name. Yeah. That's what that means. Hey, you. You. You. And then I was like, oh, my God, it's you. And then I was like, you.
Starting point is 01:01:37 And then what about when you do the awkward, like, your partner comes in and you're like, honey, have you guys met? Right. Do you two know each other? Or you go, this is my wife, Casey. And then leave it at that this is this is my wife casey and then leave it at that or this is my wife and then casey goes hi i'm casey casey smart when we we we she she hit me to it she was like listen if ever you don't know anybody's name just be like this is my wife don't say my name just say this is my wife and introduce me i'll get the name out of that's good that's a teamwork that's called teamwork right there yeah yeah you know what this is my wife, and introduce me. I'll get the name out of it. That's good.
Starting point is 01:02:05 That's a teamwork. That's called teamwork. That's teamwork right there, yeah. Yeah, you know what? This is where it backfires when Casey will go, hey, I'm Casey. And the person will go, hey, nice to meet you. Oh, yeah. The worst. By the way, I used my name technique that I taught our listeners
Starting point is 01:02:20 for remembering names the other day. There's a parking garage attendant who's very nice to me and I wanted to remember his name and his name was Wilson. So I pictured that volleyball with the red handprint on it, driving my car up. I just pictured the volleyball in the driver's seat, somehow driving the car up to me. And I will never forget that man's name. It's Wilson. Hey, Wilson. And I told my friend the story, and he's like, that's great.
Starting point is 01:02:51 Even I'm going to remember his name now. Yeah. I say that all the time. There are people that are like, hi, my name's Casey. I'll be like, I'll never forget your name. My wife's name is Casey. How could I ever forget it? And I'll be like, hey, you.
Starting point is 01:03:08 Bobby Forrester, oury grip yes it plays one of the janitors uh henchmen yes his father who recently just passed away Robert Forrester Bobby was an amazing dolly grip the dolly grip for those you don't know is a very tough position because um the camera is mounted on this piece of gear that you can make the camera move it sometimes it's on tracks sometimes it's just rubber wheels on the ground but you're you have to hit very specific marks and what makes it doubly hard is that you also have a uh it has a silent hydraulic arm that raises and lowers and so the person man or woman is not only moving the physical dolly, but simultaneously moving the hydraulic arm up and down.
Starting point is 01:03:50 It's a real art form to it. And a lot of people are not good at it. And when you have a great dolly grip, it makes such a difference. And Bobby was an incredible dolly grip. You never had to ever go again because the dolly wasn't somehow in the right position at the right time.
Starting point is 01:04:05 Yeah, it's really interesting to watch a camera team when they've worked together for a really long time or when they have chemistry. It's really cool to watch because a lot of people don't know this, but there's like four people behind the camera working one camera. Yeah. There's the dolly grip. There's the focus puller. There's the dolly grip there's the there's the focus puller there's the camera operator and then there's the person who does the uh mark marking in uh the slate the slate yeah slate slating and uh you know when a team is really good it's it it things move really fast and
Starting point is 01:04:43 work is easy when the team is really bad though, it definitely suffers. And these are positions that take a lot of practice. Like focus pulling is not a simple thing because you can have, you know, the lens can be set at a certain F-stop where the focus is very, very shallow and you can have someone running towards you and you have to magically, not magically, with a lot of skill, keep up with them and keep them in focus. And it sucks because sometimes you'll be like, you'll have a great take with an actor, but the focus is off in a moment and you gotta go, oh, we gotta go again. That didn't work as a focus.
Starting point is 01:05:21 So it is definitely a skill that is so important. That position is called the first assistant camera operator. So now when you see them in the credits, you'll know what that position does, and now you know what the dolly grip does. Anyway, so in this episode, one of the fellas that's in the janitor's posse, and I think he recurs as one of the janitor's posse members. Yes. But he has a line in this one.
Starting point is 01:05:50 He says something like, good one, or something like that. Right? I didn't pick up on it. When the janitor disses Cox, you know, because he's trying to hide the fact that he's friends with a doctor. Right. That's so high school. That whole relationship was so high school.
Starting point is 01:06:05 But we could be friends at the bar. So high school. Grey's Anatomy gets referenced. You diss Grey's Anatomy. Well, I'm imagining that Grey's Anatomy was probably a new hospital show killing it in their ratings and we were jealous or something.
Starting point is 01:06:19 And so we said that they bit off of us. We go, Grey's Anatomy, it's like they've been watching our lives and putting it on tv so elliot bangs keith yeah after you guys said you were gonna just get rid of you know i thought i was hoping and i knew this was coming but i was hoping that elliot and jd because they're having so much fun together like the way the episode is trending for those who've never seen the show before. It's trending that the booty call will be between Elliot and JD.
Starting point is 01:06:50 And I always like it when they hook up. But not this episode. This episode, she bangs Keith. And Keith's so handsome and he's ripped. Travis is ripped. I mean, Travis who plays Keith is just, look at his abs. I mean, can you imagine that this is,
Starting point is 01:07:02 you're living with your ex-girlfriend and she's fine. You both discussed you're going to have booty calls. She brings a booty home that looks like a Ken doll. Comes out of the shower all moist, wearing my robe. This cute little robe, too. I wish I had that robe. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Well, this is funny. It's like a little pink robe, and I'm like, why are you wearing my robe? Why is he wearing my robe? And he's wearing my robe. By the way, JD rocking a New Jersey t-shirt to represent. We don't know where JD's from, but someone magical involved in this
Starting point is 01:07:37 production is from New Jersey. Who? Just kidding. How about this? All these condoms. How many times have these guys who just kidding alright how about this all these condoms how many times have these guys fucked there's like a hundred condoms on the table yes he has a very strong libido reminds me of a young Donald
Starting point is 01:07:55 Faison I know but like this was like they could have gotten the joke across with like six I think I pick up like twenty no you pick up two handfuls like a bunch bunch in each hand. This is the best part of the whole episode is that I read the label. I go, El Toro Grande? I'm not familiar with this brand.
Starting point is 01:08:14 That took me all the way out. So funny. So we learned that in addition to being so handsome, Keith also has a giant El Toro Grande. Yeah. We learned we're almost done, but we learned that the janitor sells prosthetic
Starting point is 01:08:33 feet to college kids. He thinks that they smoke something out of them. Oh, no. And then you see Bobby Forrester or Dolly Grip carrying a box of stolen prosthetics
Starting point is 01:08:49 but I mean what about the whole thing with Doug and the corpse I didn't bring my I tried to prank Keith by I guess JD steals a corpse from the morgue to prank Keith to call him a murderer.
Starting point is 01:09:07 Doug tracks it all the way to back to the bed, but forgets his gurney in the morgue. Yes. So he decides, rather than go get a gurney, he's going to give the corpse a piggyback ride. This episode is nuts. This episode is fucking nuts and then he's got the corpse
Starting point is 01:09:29 in the fucking elevator Randall you should have kept the fucking bag out of the bag Randall you fucked up I bet you the studio was like no you gotta put the corpse in the bag no I don't know that would be fucking so hilarious if Keith
Starting point is 01:09:45 is standing there with a corpse hung over his... My one note is that Randall really fucked up when it ends in the elevator. Doug should have been standing there with the corpse instead of in the body bag. Oh my gosh. By the way, you get threatened by all
Starting point is 01:10:03 these nurses, and they're all going to throw staplers at you because they find out what you did with the gym why are all these nurses holding staplers? I don't understand I think they were prepared they were ready for it because the pins came first and then next was the staplers she was like if he's dumb enough to continue saying it I want you guys to
Starting point is 01:10:20 peck him with staplers. Okay so everyone go grab a stapler is what Carla said she was like you go there's someone on the fourth floor, there's someone on the first floor. Just make sure you get yourself a stapler for this moment. For this moment. Now, Donald, not in a fantasy, Elliot turns into Darth Vader and lifts me by the neck off of my feet.
Starting point is 01:10:42 Yeah, chokes you out. Chokes you out at the end of it. Yes. So she is very, very, very strong. Yes, when you cross Elliot. She lifts me by the neck. Be prepared to get choked out, yeah. Your feet are dangling.
Starting point is 01:10:57 And you see my feet dangling. Yeah, dangling like two of those, you know how they make keychains and they put shoes on the keychains right that's the transition that's the transition dangling like that sounds like randall went to transition school this episode is really about you know about relationships like if you were to if we were to do a recap on this episode, it really is about, I think it truly all has to do with rules.
Starting point is 01:11:29 I think the rules between Cox and the janitor at the bar, being friends at the bar and not at the hospital, that's where it is. We can't be associated with each other because we wouldn't be associated with each other normally. Just because we had a great conversation at the bar, let's keep the relationship there. But they bonded by removing the emerald from my Prince Albert. Well, they realize that they have a lot in common at work.
Starting point is 01:11:59 You're one of the people that irks them, or J.D. is one of the people that irks them. Do you think that Cox helps the janitor remove the emerald? Absolutely. I don't think it's a big issue for him. Because he couldn't have moved the bed alone. They must have done it together. Absolutely. I think because he's a doctor, I don't think he has a problem touching another man's penis. I'm sure he's done it several times before. Right, but it is weird to not only steal a man from his home in his bed and move said bed to the parking lot,
Starting point is 01:12:29 and then as the piece de resistance, remove the man's Prince Albert piercing and allow your colleague to mount the emerald on a broom. Yes. My emerald. By the way, we learned that Elliot is into P-Play. What's that called, Joelle? This is out of my territory of knowledge. Can you Google what the...
Starting point is 01:12:55 No, no, no, no, no, no. It sounds about right, though. P-Play? This is for work, Joelle. I'm sorry that you worked on an R-rated podcast. Why is it for HR? HR's gonna be like, well, it looked like you This is for work, Joelle. I'm sorry that you worked on an R-rated podcast. He's like, I look like you were looking for pee porn. I'm so sorry. Alright, well I just want to know what the correct term for urine play is. I don't
Starting point is 01:13:14 want to offend anyone who loves Isn't it called a golden shower? That is a particular act. That's when you get peed on, but we learned that Elliot is into, what's it called, Joelle? Can we just go pee play? I don't want to research this anymore. You know what people who are into pee play call their club?
Starting point is 01:13:37 What? Urination. Oh my God. Thank you. I just came up with it. Thank you. All right. Well, Elliot's into P-Play.
Starting point is 01:13:54 She says it's only because of Jellyfish Incident. Yeah. But we all know. But we all know. All right. On that note, we're going to take a break, and we come back. Joelle has, I'm sure, programmed an exciting guest for us. We'll be right back after these words.

Starting point is 01:19:37 It's real. It's happening. Yeah, no, screw you guys. With all due respect, this is 100% a dream. This is not a dream. Well, if we could pinch you, we would. I wish we could reach you. By the way, you're wearing the new shirt, if we could pinch you, we would. I wish we could reach you. By the way, you're wearing the new shirt, which I really, really, really appreciate. That's a dope shirt.
Starting point is 01:19:50 It is a dope shirt. I get a lot of comments. I know then all the in fans when I'm walking around the hood with my kids. Oh, yeah. Do people say, nice shirt, nice shirt? Yeah, they say, who's Scrubs fan? Or else they get it completely wrong, and they're like, oh, that's that show with the blood. No, I was like, that's not even close.
Starting point is 01:20:06 Yeah, but I call this the limited edition shirt because there's no Ted on here. It is. No Ted, no Jordan, no Todd. No Jordan. Or Todd without the the. Yeah, yeah. There's just Todd.
Starting point is 01:20:16 So if you want the shirt that Alex is rocking, we have merch for sale. That's what podcasts do. They sell merch. You go to CottonBureau.com and look up Fake Doctors, Real Friends. It looks very good on you, my friend. And I'm not just saying this because it's our merch. I'm a little bit of a COVID fatty, too.
Starting point is 01:20:31 So it's a lot of pounds, and it still fits in there pretty well. I think you look great. Thank you. You look great. Where are you calling from? Because wherever you are right now, the ambiance is on. Yes, you're well lit. You're well lit.
Starting point is 01:20:46 Thank you. I try. I'm in Bethesda, Maryland, in my house in Bethesda, Maryland, which is near D.C. I don't think we've ever had a Maryland guest, Joel. You can say D.C. maybe. So I have A. Yeah, we grew up in D.C. And my wife and I were here when you guys started your show back in the thousands. And we had a 350 square foot apartment that costs like a million dollars when
Starting point is 01:21:07 it still does. And we lived together and we got married in that apartment. And one little Magnavox TV across the side, and we would watch scrubs all the time and all the DVDs, whenever they would come out, you know, after the season was over because there's no reruns, we would just wait and wait and wait. And finally the DVD would come out and we'd be able to watch them like non-stop it was great thank you so much wait so you wouldn't watch it on series you just waiting for the you know i we would watch it all
Starting point is 01:21:34 in series we would wait like every thursday or whenever it was out and you know on our little tv because that's as big as we could afford back then and i'm like your guy's age so i'm like 40 i'm about to turn 45 so i'm similar to your guy's age oh so you when you listen back to this episode you're going to get all of our night rider and a team references oh you might lose that quiz if i'm involved so it's not much of a quiz we were just talking about how much we loved both of those shows they were that's we were the target as as young boys we were the target demo for those two shows. Whoever could make the best Knight Rider sound. You know, you were like the king in school.
Starting point is 01:22:11 Michael. And then the A-team. I mean, nobody ever died in that show, but there were so many bullets spent. We just talked about that. Exactly what they said. It would be magazine after magazine. And the bad guys always had better guns than them, too. But they had the freaking gun with the-
Starting point is 01:22:29 AK-47s. With the banana clip. AK-47s. Only the AK-47s. In the back of the van? My favorite part was when they would always, towards the end, to solve whatever problem was going on in the town, they would have to construct something.
Starting point is 01:22:45 Yes. And the theme song would kick in town, they would have to construct something. Yes. And the theme song would kick in, and they would build something, and they never showed you what they were building because it was meant to be a surprise how they used it. There was always a wire in the sand that you didn't see. Yeah, and there was always some type of thing that knocked people out of something
Starting point is 01:22:59 before they blew it up. Oh, yeah, yeah, absolutely. There would have to be a tree to knock the people out of the van and then the van would go flipping and turning and it's kind of like that classic western trope of yes we're gonna get the town together and they're not we're not they're not they're not warriors or anything but we're gonna enlist all of them and they're there we see you see them prepping and sawing and and then but but it's mystery we don't know what they're doing no it's
Starting point is 01:23:25 very three amigos like in a spirit yes they did it every episode though and every time i'm like i'm sorry i mean how do you make it fresh every time i'm going what was it and then you know what they never talked about? Is Mr. T still alive? Yes, absolutely. Joel, can you please get Mr. T on the show? That's all I want from Hanukkah. I can certainly try. You know what they never talked about after the A-Team was over?
Starting point is 01:23:56 The casualties of the people that died in those towns. You know what I mean? No, because no one ever died. But if you look at any other movie they don't talk about the people that died in trying to save Rockridge in fucking in Blazing Saddles they don't talk
Starting point is 01:24:14 about all those people that people died trying to save my father always used to say that you know because he was not a fan of action movies and stuff he liked straight dramas and comedies but he'd be like what about all their families? Right. Stop that.
Starting point is 01:24:28 In a stereotypic action movie where people are just dying left and right, he's like, why is no one going back to help that man? Your dad was a good dude. I remember you guys, so Donald, you said something a while ago about how you were inspired by the Transformers movie.
Starting point is 01:24:45 Oh, yeah. Become like a stop animator. That movie was the first time I heard a curse word, and it was kick butt. In a cartoon, yeah. It was kick butt. The Dinobot said, I'm going to kick butt. And I'm like, ooh. No, there's actually another curse in that movie where Spike and, no, I guess it's Spike and Bumblebee. They try to blow up
Starting point is 01:25:05 a planet and escape. And Spike says to Bumblebee, Oh shit, what are we going to do now? This was in Transformers the movie. And I remember being a kid being like, Holy cow! Spike just said shit!
Starting point is 01:25:22 Oh my god, I might have repressed that memory. I can't believe that in a Transformers animated movie someone said shit. Well, they also killed Optimus Prime in this movie. They killed everybody. What about Optimus Prime's family? Let's get into it, Alex. You got a question
Starting point is 01:25:40 for us, my friend? Actually, Alex has a dope-ass story that it's short and we have pictures and you must see it. Yeah. Okay. Then forget questions. Go into your story. So in 2007, I was a young, I'm an architect and I designed restaurants and hotels and stuff like that. Good job on your restaurant in New York city, by the way, Zach. And so I was asked to go to a seminar in LA and I said, yeah, that sounds great. And I happened to stay in West Hollywood. And this is 2007 when Google Maps, I think it just came out.
Starting point is 01:26:10 So I had to figure out at some point, I was like, I must be near the scrub set. Like it's got to be around here somewhere. So there's really no Google. There's no like Uber to take me there. So I figured it out based on my architecture skills by like searching the map and figuring out this building footprint must be the one and so i was like you know screw it i have a half day off i got a rental car from enterprise not from uber and i drove through whatever mountain and i found it and i parked
Starting point is 01:26:36 and i started i was like i'm just gonna walk in and see what happens so i walked in and there's nobody at the guard station fucking ghost town nobody there sorry I missed track of time this is what after we were done filming or I guess so it was July 2008 2007 July 2007 so you must have been out of filming I guess yeah we're not filming in July we wouldn't be filming oh but but but but I can see from your pictures that the no we were still filming there yeah we were just down we were down for the summer or something. Yeah, it was between seasons. You're between seasons six and seven, I think.
Starting point is 01:27:09 I didn't, I just walked in. It was open. Literally open. So I'm like, hello, is anybody in there? Nothing. Nobody's coming out. Nobody's saying anything, hearing any words. I mean, anybody could have walked in there.
Starting point is 01:27:20 So I took my little camera, no cell phone cameras, and I walked around and I couldn't believe it. I'm like my god here i am at the nurse's station oh my god i'm at the cafeteria oh my god i'm at coffee bucks wow and i'm literally walking through your guys's set slash building and as i'm walking through were you nervous did you think like someone someone's gonna like arrest you very very nervous did you just stay on's going to arrest you? Very, very nervous. Did you just stay on the first floor? Did you make it up to the second floor? No, I didn't go up.
Starting point is 01:27:49 I was terrified of being there in the first place. Sorry, we should tell the audience that we're looking on Zoom, a shared screen of all of these pictures of Alex walking through the empty hospital. Yeah, and it was – Alex, did you kill anyone on your journey? There may be a dead body. Is there a body buried somewhere? There's a lot of ceiling tiles missing. Alex, is the next
Starting point is 01:28:11 slide the dead guard? I told you he wasn't there, but you never know, because I killed him. You said there was a story once of how you guys hid stuff above the ceiling tiles, and now... Well, not on purpose. Someone hid Rowdy to get back at Bill. Well, it's no surprise anything is that half the ceiling tiles. Well, not on purpose. Someone hid Rowdy to get back at Bill. Well, it's no surprise anything.
Starting point is 01:28:27 Half the ceiling tiles were missing when I got there. Well, yeah, so that was also a Bill Lawrence thing. He wanted the hospital to feel like it was old. Low on funds. Low on funds. Yeah, it was literally low on funds. Yeah. And I don't know how you guys manage their day-to-day.
Starting point is 01:28:49 I mean, it was a dump, no offense. There was a sign outside editorial that was just the size of a piece of paper. And it said, like, this is to officially warn anyone in this building that the following toxic chemicals are in this. I mean, asbestos and mold and God knows what else. I mean, it was an ancient old hospital that was meant to be torn down,
Starting point is 01:29:12 but we were like, wait, before you tear it down, we're going to spend nine years in it. We understand it's a safety hazard. Yes, we understand that it has black mold and asbestos and a zillion other problems, but we're just going to quickly spend nine years in it. Yeah, it scared me like crazy. I was trying to piece together like where you guys were
Starting point is 01:29:34 in different scenes and stuff just from watching the show. Like a lot of people will put together old sitcoms and figure out how the set is sort of figured out or what it was like. Yeah, I saw one of those recently that Seinfeld's apartment doesn't make any, any sense. No zero sense. But this one,
Starting point is 01:29:47 I mean, the building doesn't lie. It's a character in the show. Yeah. And so I was just fascinated as a young architect. I'm like, I have to go piece this together. I sort of put it together in my mind,
Starting point is 01:29:56 obviously, but just being there absolutely blew my mind. And I couldn't end with you making a full scale model. I hope so. I could build it in 3d and walk you through it probably right now. Yeah. That would be awesome. I could make you a video game with Scrubs Hospital as the main place.
Starting point is 01:30:11 I pitch to Bill all the time that we should make a Scrubs animated series, stop-motion animated series. We would need somebody to rebuild the hospital if he ever signs off on that. Oh, my Lord. That would be amazing. You'd have to include the black mold, though. That's the critical part. Well, yeah, of course.
Starting point is 01:30:29 We'd have an episode based on the black mold. Listen, we at Fake Doctors, real friends, don't encourage you to sneak into your favorite TV show sets. But, Alex, you did it successfully. No one was harmed. Nope. Back in the day, I survived. But I have an apropos question to that for my Fix My Life.
Starting point is 01:30:46 Yes, go. It's time for Maryland's favorite segment, Donald. It's time to Fix Your Life. So I have questions for you. But the Fix My Life, I told Joelle, I said, I yield any Fix My Life or good advice to my almost 12-year-old daughter. She, you know, I can fix my own life. I got lots of things.
Starting point is 01:31:12 I'm your guy's age. I can manage. But she is really interested in theater and film, and she's a young lady who wants to learn. Zach, she was following your lovely lady,ce uh through her trials in black widow and she would always tell me how fascinated she was that florence would give shout outs to the crew and she said that was so honorable and she said i always wanted to be there as part of that crew who had set things up i was walking the other day and we happened to see this teeny like one camera independent photo shoot somebody was holding a boom like a real boom mic and she's like i just
Starting point is 01:31:44 got chills oh that's what i was like how old is she that's what i was like she's almost 12 i would literally like this is so dorky but i would i would set up what i thought a film set looked like in my dining room i had nothing to shoot i had no one to film but i would like put a clip light here put my little video camera on a tripod and my mom would be like can i clean up the dining room like mom it's a hot set you can't touch it and i remember being i remember i would just walk by the dining room where i had set up what i thought a movie set looked like there was nothing i had no plan of anything i was filming i just thought it was cool that i had a mock film set in my dining room it's so so cool. So there you go.
Starting point is 01:32:25 It sounds like your little girl was a lot like I was. Absolutely. Is there a lot of theater in you guys' town? Well, I grew up doing high school theater. I was like the unsuspecting lead in all the plays. I never knew I had it in me. And that just went poof. So I always, Zach, I always admire the stories of your dad
Starting point is 01:32:40 having theater in his blood still later in his life. I sort of aspire to that. But she went to theater camp every summer. Where'd she go? Minus last one. She went to a place called Glen Echo, and it's an adventure theater. It's right down here in D.C. Okay.
Starting point is 01:32:54 It's fantastic. They're so good. And she was always good at the theater part. She's very, very good, but she just loved – she's like, I wonder how long it's going to take to reset that scene. She's like – that's what gets her going. It sounds like she might be as interested in the behind the scenes as she is in being an actress. That's exactly right, Mr. Raff. He, she was very much
Starting point is 01:33:14 interested in that. So I promised her one day I will take you out to, I guess, Los Angeles and we will figure out a way to go be a fly on the wall at a TV shoot or a film shoot or whatever it is, because she would just absolutely drop dead. Well, the easiest thing to do, by the way, is, you know, the easiest, unless you have a connection to someone who's shooting, especially now COVID, you know, pretend COVID's over when COVID's over, but you can take it with sitcom taping because my father, they're always dying to have audiences. You know, they really, they really want you to do it. And my father, when I was her age,
Starting point is 01:33:44 brought me to a, I've told this on the podcast, to a taping of the Bob Newhart show. And I, you know, she will love that because that is the best way to just kind of watch behind the scenes of production and be able to sit there. But sorry, go ahead with your- Well, that's sort of it.
Starting point is 01:34:03 So you guys live in this world every day. And so if you were in my shoes and you were just some civilian architect who wanted to make his daughter's dreams come true, how would you figure out a way to put her in the position to be part of the behind the scenes and just be sneaking in and just watching a set go by? I don't even know how to make that manifest that dream. My wife is really good at manifesting things, willing things into existence, but this is, can't figure it out. Well, normally if it were non-COVID times, we could easily figure out a way to get you on some set because we could ask.
Starting point is 01:34:34 What? Well, we could ask one of our friends who's currently shooting. The problem is in this day and age, you're not even allowed on, like I can't even have my, my mom keeps saying, I can't wait to visit the set of your new movie.
Starting point is 01:34:45 I'm thinking like, mom, you can't visit the set. I don't have the heart to break it to her yet. But so you're going to have to wait until this apocalypse is fully over. But my answer is the easiest thing is go online. And if you're listening and you're interested in this for your kid or for yourself as well, look into how you get tickets to a sitcom taping um because they are always looking to recruit audiences obviously if it's a popular show it can be harder to get tickets but another one that's tricky to get tickets to but you can you if you're clever you can figure it out is snl which is
Starting point is 01:35:21 amazing yeah that's really difficult you got to get on the list to get that one. No, but don't. If he wants to be the first one in line and wait overnight, he could do it. I mean, it depends how hardcore you want to be. But my point is, SNL is so fun because you're watching... I remember watching when I was in... You're watching them, the crew, amazing crew,
Starting point is 01:35:41 move like a Swiss watch all these sets live during the commercial break. So that's, that's really thrilling. And, um, but the first thing that comes to mind is, is a sitcom audience because I also believe that they're going to start allowing people back once they're vaxxed and tested into sitcom audiences. Yeah. In terms of going on a real movie set, I don't have an answer for you right now, but we will ruminate on it
Starting point is 01:36:05 and tell Joelle if we can think of anything. Ooh, yeah. Well, we have time on our side, so we'll go out there and poke around. So don't forget about us when we come. Also, you might think about sending her to a camp that, I don't know if this camp that she goes to, that also has video production,
Starting point is 01:36:18 because some of them do. Yeah, we're going to try that next. She really wants to be behind the camera. I know there's the popular, the one I went to that I always advertise is Stage Door Manor. The other popular one is French Woods. But also just research
Starting point is 01:36:31 because some of these have film and TV programs that are just as intense as their theater program. That's so cool. Yeah, when the world opens back up, Joelle, I'll be sure to ring you and let you know we're in the area. Please do. Please do, Alex. A young girl in the film industry feels like the right thing especially for an aspiring lady who wants to be there professionally oh yeah we'd support that a lot and i know donald you have you
Starting point is 01:36:57 know kids who probably live next to your world constantly and so it's got to be pretty fascinating for you to see them i don't want them i don't want them anywhere near my world, to be honest with you. No, no. Like, and, and, and my kids show interest too. And it's like, I don't want you. I don't want that for you, but it's not up to me at the end of the day. Well, if you want to have equal amount of anxiety about their future, just make them put them in architecture.
Starting point is 01:37:21 That'll be right. About the same guarantee. Also, Alex, I was thinking, you know, there's, um, I don't know if it's too mature for her, but there's some masterclasses that are cool. Like Ron Howard did one. Yeah. We've, we have the masterclass subscription. Oh, then definitely show her. Um, there's definitely some behind the scenes filmmaking ones. I know I watched,
Starting point is 01:37:40 uh, the Ron Howard one out of curiosity um those might really those might really interest her yeah yeah we definitely do uh but yeah literally one day i mean you know if donald you have kids you know just seeing the surprise and the amazement on their faces when they get this thing that shows up in their life that they never thought would exist it just it's not it's not for me it's not i have a for you, Alex, because not yet. Wait till I introduce you. Oh, no. Hold on.
Starting point is 01:38:09 I got to figure out how to do this with my mic. Can you hear me? Yes, I hear you. Yes. All right. It's going to sound shitty for a second, but we have a very special surprise visitor on today's show to end the show. Oh, my God. Do you want to get one of your things
Starting point is 01:38:26 and sing something? Alright, so this is a surprise, not planned. Okay. Do you guys like surprises? You can come in and then tune while you... I've been surprised all day since Joelle called me. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 01:38:41 Alex, because I didn't successfully fix your life, I just had some mild... No, come in first, friend. Come in. No, it's been tuned. Preston tuned it. Ladies and gentlemen, a total surprise,
Starting point is 01:38:58 Mr. Joshua Radin. No way! Oh my yes! Adeo, Shun. Whatun what's up brother how are you this is our guest Alex say hi to Alex Crawford that's a good t-shirt yeah I'm gonna get you one of those

It's actually my guitar.
Starting point is 01:41:08 Zach bought this for me as a birthday present. My 30th birthday, I think. Wow. And I decided many years ago to leave it on the wall here so anytime I'm here, I can play it. I'm thinking what I'm going to do to make this more professional is give you the headphones so you sound like you want to sound right? I don't care just sing into the mic
Starting point is 01:41:28 yeah that's what you do but what you're going to do is sing into this microphone okay alright alright nobody talk during the song okay Alex for god's sake can we move this down just a touch?
Starting point is 01:41:43 wherever you want it oh there's no video there's no video during the song, okay? Alex, for God's sake. Can we move this down just a touch? Wherever you want it. Like that? We're not on video. Oh, there's no video. That's right. No, there's no video, you fuckers. We daydreamed about putting it on YouTube one day, but Donald won't update his fucking camera. Shut up, you fucking cock.
Starting point is 01:41:54 He stole the iHeart camera and used it for his fucking animation. Hey, cock nose, shut up. Why don't you fucking stick your cock nose in Josh Raiden's twat ears? Okay. No, no. Let's call it. He just said to stick my cock nose in your twat ears. He's got a one-hole nose.
