We finished at we were supposed to record at 1 30 we finished at 1 29 and i gathered everything and ran up up in this motherfucker and i and i was late but hey i'm gonna tell you something right now you ain't never gonna see like look i've learned so much in the past three days about lighting which is something zach i know you know a little bit about uh i don't know if you know anything about it dano i don't know if you know anything about it, Dano. I don't know if you know anything about it, Joelle. But it means so much to, you know, creating something. Or it just looks flat and depth of field and all of that stuff.
Starting point is 00:03:20 All of these things fall into play. And it's been an awesome experience. And thank you for letting me share that you can see how excited you are we're glad that my wife said that shit too she was like i can see how excited you are i walked by and you sounded like a little fucking geek well not everyone has a passion that they love as much as you love stop motion animation so i think we're all very happy for you.

The audience is lucky that we're not going to give them the full Sarah Chalk experience. We're going to cut out the 15 minutes you just needed to help set up your microphone. Stop recording. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:04:05 Tell me about it. What have you been doing? I've been directing the TV show Shrinking. Yeah. And it's really fun and great. I really loved it.
Starting point is 00:04:14 The episodes are so... I directed episodes three and four this year and I'm done. I'm going to start editing next week and I had so much fun. You want to tell me
Starting point is 00:04:23 Harrison Ford anecdotes or anything? I'll tell you a story you'll laugh at that I he really likes me and he's very nice to me and we get along this time I bonded with him more and I still get giddy when he says my name which is just funny
Starting point is 00:04:38 because just Zach but when he calls across the set and he has a question he's like Zach. I'm like, Oh my God, he says my name. But I'll tell you a funny story. I was wearing these really loud Gucci shoes,
Starting point is 00:04:52 sneakers that I had bought in Vegas after I lost in blackjack. I was with Bill and I got crushed in blackjack and I was like feeling like such a loser. I was like, I'm going to go buy stupid, expensive sneakers. And I went and bought these very loud Gucci sneakers. Cause I like, I'm going to go buy stupid, expensive sneakers. And I went and bought these very loud Gucci sneakers. Cause I do, I don't really dress,
Starting point is 00:05:13 I don't dress flashy at all. I wear just pretty much the same three things every day, but I do like loud fucking weird sneakers anyway. So I'm wearing these on set and Harrison goes, what's the story with these sneakers? And I go, I was actually vegas with bill and he won like all this money in blackjack and i got crushed and and i was like bummed out so i went and bought these at the gucci store and he goes and those cheered you up hell yeah retail therapy is real Harrison yeah Harrison didn't understand my retail well I'm sure Harrison understands retail therapy he just didn't understand why those particularly loud Gucci
Starting point is 00:05:54 sneakers were retail therapy yeah but you're getting to know the real Harrison for it everybody knows everybody else who doesn't have the privilege of getting to hang out with him frequently knows the freaking persona. You know what I mean? You're seeing vulnerability and all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:06:09 I envy that. I envy that because you got that with Morgan. You got that with Harrison. Yeah. You know what I mean? Michael Caine. Michael Caine. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Fucking, you know, the list. Alan Arkin. Yeah. Alan Arkin. I've gotten to work with some legends i gotta say harrison just so cool and he's so good on the show the scripts are so good this year and he's just incredible and and what's cool about an actor like that is you know first time through they're basically like where do you want me to stand pretty much this time it was more
Starting point is 00:06:41 like felt way more collaborative like what do you think Should it be more this or this? And that's just, that's when it gets really cool. I love it, man. That's so cool, bro. Yeah. That's so fucking cool. I mean, we can't talk about some of the stories that you told me off camera. I mean, off, but just some of the things you've said, just, you know, I've already gone to friends and been like and then zach said he said this and fucking when zach told me that oh my god my heart melted like just it's just so fucking awesome and i yeah i i'm really happy for you but also fuck your sound machine
Starting point is 00:07:19 zach i wanted you to come i wanted you to come visit but that just never seemed to work out no i don't think I could handle myself. Yeah, I don't know that you'd behave either. The other thing is I want to just say to the audience, I have a movie coming out. I think when this airs, it'll be out. It's a movie. It's going to be, I think it's in like 50 theaters in the U.S., but in a lot more in Canada. It's a movie I made with Vanessa Hudgens called French Girl.
Starting point is 00:07:47 But anyway, you most likely will be able to get it on demand wherever you buy or rent movies like iTunes or Amazon or wherever. And it's really cute. It's like a meet the parents kind of romantic comedy where I'm going to propose to my girlfriend. I'm absolutely in love with her. And she's French Canadian and she gets a job offer in her home city of Quebec City. And I think, oh, that's where I'll propose in front of her whole family. I'll make it so dramatic and romantic. And we go up there. And while I'm up there meeting her French, beautiful French family that live on a farm and they're lovely people, I'm a little bit of a fish out of water. I don't speak any French. And while I'm there, I learned that the woman who's offering her this chef position, played by Vanessa Hudgens,
Starting point is 00:08:30 used to be her lover. And she wants to get my girlfriend back. And so it becomes like Vanessa and I competing over this amazing, beautiful French woman. Why y'all gotta compete? Hilarity ensues. Why y'all gotta compete? Hilarity ensues. Why y'all gotta compete? Well, I don't think either one of us wants to share the amazing woman.
Starting point is 00:08:52 I'm not a sharer either. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not a sharer. Anyway, it's really cute. It's really funny. It's kind of a meet the parents tone because everything
Starting point is 00:08:59 I try and do goes wrong and I think you'll like it. The trailer's adorable. The trailer's really cute, adorable the trailer is very fun yeah i can't wait to see it i get to do a lot of physical comedy which i haven't done since scrubs and that's fun so now um you shot this a while ago too right yes shot it a while ago yes but it's finally coming out i love it it's good vanessa's really hot and funny in it as always as always Vanessa's really hot and funny in it As always
Starting point is 00:09:23 As always She was great in that Tick tick boom Yeah she was Speaking of Vanessa Because she was hosting the red carpet The Oscars were really great this year weren't they They were great
Starting point is 00:09:38 Well I'm going to say something really quick Oh boy This sounds controversial It's not controversial. Okay. Two lights out moments in the Oscars. I think there were more, but go ahead. It was lights out.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Cena coming out with the freaking thing, lights out, hilarious. Hilarious. You can't sit here and tell me you didn't laugh. That was funny. That was hilarious. That was very funny. Very funny. And then Gosling coming out there and doing Ken.
Starting point is 00:10:08 I don't give a fuck what anybody says. Lights out, both of them. Knock that out. Hilarious. He crushed that. But also, there were other moments. Billie Eilish's performance I thought was incredible. Just going to say.
Starting point is 00:10:18 But I wasn't laughing. I was laughing watching those two things. I watched the Oscars and I expect to see great dramatic and heartfelt performances like the there was a standing ovation for the memoriam.
Starting point is 00:10:36 You know what I mean? I expect to see grand dramatic. It's the Oscars. It's rare that you laugh your ass off like that. Yeah. Where you giggling so hard at what's going on. I'm just telling you a goose bumpy moment for me.
Starting point is 00:10:54 I agree. Those were hilarious moments. But when Billy and Phineas were singing and then, and it was just very simple, right? And then they had yet to reveal that there was an orchestra back there. And then, so they were spinning on this little simple turntable. very simple right and then they had yet to reveal that there was an orchestra back there and then so they were spinning on this little simple turntable and then the stage opened up to reveal ricky minor and the orchestra and i got goosebumps all over my whole body it was so good first of all shout
Starting point is 00:11:17 out ricky minor yeah ricky minor ricky minor's got a monopoly on those award shows i i love him yeah he's a good guy explain who ricky minor love him. Yeah, he's a good guy. Explain who Ricky Miner is for people not... Oh, he's a famous conductor and producer, but he seems to always have the... Whenever there's a big award show and a big-ass orchestra, he's usually the one conducting the orchestra. Not only that, he's just an incredible person. When he sees me, he is always so nice and loving.
Starting point is 00:11:49 person when he sees me he is always so nice and loving um and i just i really shout out ricky minor yo i don't know if he listens to the podcast but maybe now someone will tell him i know his favorite podcast i've already he told me it was um yeah there were a lot of good ones i love the the the sort of style of having the actors come out and say something nice about each of the nominees that was so elegant beautiful so lovely and moving super moving and also just like a great opportunity for every nominee to be honored by another person who's received the award but also for the winner to then be congratulated and kind of like welcome into that club just being like congratulations it was beautiful i really love and for the winner to then be congratulated and kind of like welcome into that club. Just being like, hey, congratulations. It was beautiful.
Starting point is 00:12:27 I really loved that. And for the losers to wish that they were welcomed into that awesome club. I like what Daniel said. You're still honored in a way. Now when Divine Joy Randolph, is that her name? That's correct. When she started crying because what lupita niang said oh my gosh that was one of the most moving moments of the night i thought when she was
Starting point is 00:12:49 already crying classmates at yale um i think divine's one year under lupita and so yeah when they were able to especially when they were able to have these emotional ties and relationships to one another like uh emma stone yeah yeah yeah but in in the way that they were able to give it to a friend so a friend could give it to her, like it just made everything much more emotional and sweet. It was really lovely. It was really nice. Emma is the show. Emma.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Emma. I got to say, Emma, if there's one person, a young person who deserves two Oscars already, it's Emma Stone. She is so fucking good. She's really good. And Donald, I know you'll never see that movie, but you're missing one of the most amazing performances ever. I wish I could tell you there was lightsabers in it
Starting point is 00:13:30 so you'd at least peek at it. Is there music? There's beautiful music. Yes. Strange, bizarre, awesome music and gorgeous set design. Obi-Wan is in it for some reason. Is it like Alice in Wonderland? No, it's sort of a Frankenstein story.
Starting point is 00:13:44 It's basically about how a guy, Willem Dafoe, creates a young woman. It's kind of like... I now want to see this movie. It's kind of like... What's the movie we always joke about? Weird Science? It's like a modern-day art for weird science.
Starting point is 00:14:01 I am now interested. I would like to see this movie. And it's on Hulu you can watch it now it's so good it's really good I highly recommend it and just the design I mean it won all the design warrants as it should
Starting point is 00:14:11 the costumes the makeup the sets you're gonna think like wow is this all CGI I can't believe someone would have built all of this
Starting point is 00:14:19 it's all built on stage in Hungary I believe that's wild Yorgo Lathmos is just, what a brain, what a guy. Interesting. I got so into it that I watched a behind the scenes, which I'm sure anyone listening can track down on YouTube. And it was just about how they built these sets,
Starting point is 00:14:35 which were enormous. And like Emma Stone's interviewed and she says, you could get lost in these cities and they're all on stage, like enormous stages. Really cool. lost in these cities and they're all on stage like enormous stages really cool that reminds me of how much how big star wars sets oh god used to be before the cg and the volume and all of that stuff they built the whole city for andor yeah but that's like seven miles long it's huge that was an exception yes as you say they're bringing it back it's like 7 miles long it's huge that was an exception yeah so as you say
Starting point is 00:15:06 they're bringing it back it's coming back around Andor's coming back are you excited about that I am very excited I like all of it I'm gonna be honest with you I still love it
Starting point is 00:15:13 even though it's on even though it's on the television screen behind the actors I still love it it's still it's still Star Wars to me has anyone seen
Starting point is 00:15:22 Dune 2 yes no and I really want to see it but I'm waiting for it to come out. Have you not seen this yet, Donald? What happened? Because I have a thing about going to theaters now, man. It just doesn't, I mean, I don't. You got to see Dune 2 in a theater.
Starting point is 00:15:34 I'm going to go see it in a theater. You can rent out a theater, Donald. It's not that expensive. What's your fear? I've done it several times. What's your fear? My fear about movie theaters? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Is it COVID? It's not my fear. I don't have a fear about movie theaters yeah is it COVID it's not my fear I don't have a fear about it it's just COVID set off something completely different in me when it comes to that shit and I still mask in the movie theater I don't like I want to be comfortable too though shit I'm gonna go see it I'm gonna go see it in some giant IMAX theater. You know what I mean? And I'm going to be honest with you. Back in the day, I would try and get seats that were separated from people anyway. And now you can't do that regardless. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:16:15 Like if I want to sit two rows over, I mean, a seat over at the, if, if there's three seats or four seats and I want to sit in the middle of those four seats I can't do that shit and you used to be able to do stuff like that if you go to a day screening I think a weekday screening it's got to be one of the number one
Starting point is 00:16:38 movies of all time if that's your biggest concern I'm sure you could find a weekday early morning screening where you don't have to sit on top of people. I'm animating, man. Didn't you hear how we started this shit? I just want to wait until it comes out and I can watch it on my big screen
Starting point is 00:16:54 at home with the sound machine and then pop some popcorn and enjoy it that way. I mean, you see where I'm sitting. Okay. Go off. Classic black dad. It just completely telecosters my dad says it every time. where I'm sitting. Okay. Go off. Go off. I get it. Classic black dad. Just wait till it comes. That's why dad says it every time.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Every time. Just like my dad. He's like, no, I'm gonna wait till it comes. I got a big screen downstairs. I don't need the movie theater. I don't need it anymore.
Starting point is 00:17:14 I don't need it. There ain't no dates happening in this house. What's sad though is like, what's sad though is like, I hear you and a lot of people listening agree with you.
Starting point is 00:17:24 I just, it's just so sad. Like we were all, everyone in the movie industry is like clutching on like, I hear you and a lot of people listening agree with you. It's just so sad. Like we were all, everyone in the movie industry is like clutching on like, well, at least we have these big tent poles where people will still go to the theater. And now people are being like, nah, my TV is big enough. Fuck it. And we're watching the death of the movie theater in real time. It's a tough thing. But anyway, it is what it is.
Starting point is 00:17:42 And at least there's lots of good entertainment. And it'll just shift to your home TV. And we'll always have the ballet. We'll always have the ballet. Everything was beautiful at the ballet. I want to play the audience a song that is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. I sent this to you guys in your DMs. And it's just it's just

Starting point is 00:20:02 So gather round to hear our, gather round to hear our Scrubs Rewatch Show with Zach and All right. Welcome to season nine, everyone. I'm sure everyone has a lot to say. Please leave them in Joelle's inbox. She's been waiting. Yeah. ScrubsIHeart at gmail.com. ScrubsIHeart at gmail.com scrubsihart at gmail.com
Starting point is 00:20:26 oh my gosh we want to hear what you have to say about season 9 go ahead Donald I want to start with Daniel and Joelle first and what they thought because I feel like I don't want to start I would rather
Starting point is 00:20:43 I can start but go ahead Joelle. What do you have to say? Your broad strokes, Joelle. You don't have to keep it brief. I got broad strokes as well. It's a long podcast. You don't have to keep it brief.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Yeah, okay. I think it was so lovely to see Zach opening up. You're like, wow, this feels so familiar. How lovely. The eagle grand. The shouting from the hospital, so cool. And then as soon as they were like, it's a different hospital, I said,
Starting point is 00:21:11 this is Scrubs, where are we? What's happening? I miss the dirty hospital, new and clean and so big and lush and green. It doesn't feel right. And immediately I heard Bill in the back of my mind being like, it's a different show. It's a different show.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Think of it as a different show. And I and i said okay if i try to lean into that um i like the lucy character she's fun i'll punch cole in the face i don't like him he's a horrible person uh i'm intrigued by d's relationship with the guy that cox eventually calls his number one. Cox is a straight up teacher. Fascinating. There was like a lot of, as I was watching, I was like, there's so much stuff that works. I just don't think it had found its footing in the pilot,
Starting point is 00:21:53 which is very common for TV. So if I were watching this fresh, I would be like, I will watch another couple of episodes and see if they find their groove. I like what's being set up. It does not feel like Scrubs, even though it's nice to see the Scrubs cast. Sarah putting her boobs on your head.
Starting point is 00:22:09 I mean, almost on the floor. They're heavy. I said they're heavy. It's such a weird moment. Well, I'll jump in. I want to say something just to start off season nine. And I really did feel this when I watched it, to say when we off season nine, and I really did feel this when I watched it, to say when we diss season nine,
Starting point is 00:22:26 we are never, ever meaning to diss any of these wonderful actors because I think I wanted to just start out by saying one of the things I got right off the bat was, gosh, these new kids, quote unquote, are so funny and so talented and so pretty and they're all really, really talented people. It was a kind of Herculean task for them to try and step into the roles
Starting point is 00:22:51 of a beloved ensemble that had been doing it for eight years. And it's a big ask. But nonetheless, they were put in that position. I think Carrie Bichet is adorable and lovable and funny. But yeah, as a viewer, I'm watching it going, why is this so clean? And what is this environment? Like, it's funny.
Starting point is 00:23:13 You know how that line from Madam Web was getting dragged so much they even mentioned it at the Oscars? What was that sentence? It was like, she was my mom when she was a doctor. Do you know that sentence? In the Amazon rainforest oh gosh i don't have the line but dad although find it but it was like it was like the reason they're
Starting point is 00:23:31 making fun of it is because it was like so much exposition like condensed into one quick moment and that's how i felt like the jd had one line that was like that it was like explaining why we're in this weird environment and and and why I teach everyone now works at a school. And like, and then, and they tore down the hospital and they all work and we all work in a school now. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:23:53 It was just weird. Right. I have the line. What's the line. So it was a joke from John Mulaney. He said without sound, we wouldn't have been able to hear such classic line says you're going to need a bigger boat or I'll have what she's having.
Starting point is 00:24:03 And he was in the Amazon with my mother when she was researching spiders just before she died yeah that's like making fun of them for like cramming all his exposition into one sentence but anyway that's my first impression is that you know caribouche and franco and and eliza coop and all all this gang they were really they're really really talented. Nikki Whelan. They're all really funny and talented. It was just a big ask of them. Donald, go ahead. Daniel, do you want to go?
Starting point is 00:24:34 I'll very briefly echo some of the thoughts I'm hearing here. I think the only thing I'll add is that seeing a lot of these actors when they're particularly young, seeing a very young Dave Franco when we have seen him grow up so much over the years in between this time, was definitely like, oh, look at that. And seeing you guys again in this kind of out of place, but still in place, it was almost like an uncanny valley
Starting point is 00:24:57 where it's like, as Joelle said, it's like, it is Scrubs, but it's also kind of not. Like, it is you guys. And it's so many of the main players. It felt so familiar and yet so distant, which was, I think, you know, as Bill was saying, try and think of it as a spinoff. Think of it as something new.
Starting point is 00:25:14 But there was so much that was reminiscent about it that the strangeness made me feel even farther away from it than it did make it feel familiar. Yeah. And I think, like we said when we were talking about doing a spinoff or like what the spinoff would be many episodes ago it's like it's a big ask to just all of a sudden introduce a bunch of new people and expect it to hit as hard as it did even with so many of these familiar faces and like you're saying great actors it was
Starting point is 00:25:43 a big ask it was a big ask of the audience. And yeah, I don't know if it landed properly. All right. They did something that never works. All right. I echo everything you guys said. It was absolutely. Everybody on this bad boy is talented.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Everyone is, you know what I mean? But they did something that never works. And every show on television does it when they're trying to survive. They try to fucking Sam that shit or cousin Oliver that shit. And it never works. And that's what happened. You need to explain that reference to young people that don't get a different stretch reference. You need to explain that reference to young people that don't get a different stretch reference. So when shows get old and the kids get older and people and networks feel like the audience can't relate, the audience that we want to watch the show can't relate anymore.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Writers are forced to create a new character to bring life to the show. And for some, it's Sam on different strokes. There was Arnold and Willis and Kimberly when they were kids. And that's what the show was about, them being kids. But when they got older, it was like, we can't write the same story. Like Arnold can't get kidnapped anymore. He's 19 years old. You know what I mean? They bring in a young, cute kid.
Starting point is 00:27:07 So they bring in a young, cute kid and they let all of those stories happen to that kid. And that's what they tried to do with Scrubs. They felt like for some reason, the audience can't relate to these guys going through these stories anymore. It was really about when they were, Scrubs was really new and fresh when they were young and they were energetic and they didn't know all the answers. Let's recreate that again. Even better, let's throw them in a school
Starting point is 00:27:38 and turn it into a classroom setting, head of the class, and we'll bring back all of our favorites to teach these kids. That shit doesn't work. Now, were you and Johnny C the only regulars from the original cast, or was Sarah a regular?
Starting point is 00:27:54 I think Sarah and I... Sarah comes back and does like six episodes. You do six episodes. So when you leave, Sarah comes. Oh, I see. There's six episodes where it's you, and you're still narrating the show, trying to keep everybody there. Right. And then you leave and it's all thrown on to Carrie Bichet.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Right. And I'm going to be honest with you guys. It's a big ask. Yeah. And it's not the same show. But she's very charming and adorable. I love her fucking jumping over the counter and doing that stuff. And it's not the same show. But she's very charming and adorable. She crushes.
Starting point is 00:28:28 I love her fucking jumping over the counter and doing that stuff. She's crazy. She's very cute. I'd like to think I discovered Carrie Boucher, but Bill would probably fight me on that because I cast her in a pilot that my brother Adam wrote, and the pilot didn't get picked up, but we shot it and we cast her, and she was so good in it. And I feel like I must have mentioned her and showed Bill the pilot. He would probably have a different answer for that.
Starting point is 00:28:50 But anyway, I always thought she's so charming and interesting. You know, another thing that came to my mind is, do you remember in Groundhog Day when he naturally falls on the ground in a romantic way with Annie it's it's annie mcdowell right yeah and then he's trying when his con is finally working yes and then he tries to like recreate it and it's so cringe it doesn't happen naturally do you remember that yeah yes that that's kind of how i felt watching this i felt like we're trying to like cringely recreate like something that was working so you and i doing an eagle and saying eagle twice and screaming from across the parking lot just like
Starting point is 00:29:30 we did when you came back from your honeymoon. It just felt like we were doing that groundhog day of trying to recreate something that had been magical. All right. I'm going to say one last thing and then you're going to be mad. You guys are going to be mad at me. I'm not going to be mad you guys gonna be mad i'm not
Starting point is 00:29:45 gonna be mad we want your honesty the show got better when it was just focused on us also like 100 100 i didn't give two craps about the interns or anything but you have to look at it from a non-biased point of view do you think you were just if i was just coming into this if i was just coming into this show and i had never seen scrubs before in my life right and this was the first introduction i'd be like oh wow this is a really cool show these guys are great but after nine after eight years and then going into this and then bringing back the same people and then saying it's scrubs with bill's right that was the mistake they should have called that shit something else Yeah med school Maybe we shouldn't have been in it
Starting point is 00:30:28 Maybe we shouldn't have been in it I was driving down Sunset Boulevard today And there was like a billboard for the new law and order With Tony Goldman And then there was a separate billboard for SVU And then there was a separate billboard for another one And I was like There's like so many law and orders
Starting point is 00:30:43 And like That wouldn't have been a better route To be like med school yeah i was like uh there's there's like so many law and orders and like it could have that would have that wouldn't have better yeah it would have been a better route to be like yeah med school yeah i think bill bill has bill has said he tried so hard for that but they didn't want to do that because they were worried about the branding of it oh that would have been dope then you can compete against your own show and stuff like that scrubs scrubs med school then you have the crossovers yeah that shit would have been fire man it didn't work it didn't work like that. Scrubs, Scrubs med school. Then you have the crossovers. That shit would have been fire, man. Well, it didn't work like that.
Starting point is 00:31:08 Also, another variable that was changing the environment so drastically, I think, in addition to it being, for those of you who listened, all eight years of Scrubs were filmed at an actual abandoned hospital. This is the first season that was shot on sets. So when you see the outdoor area, that's actually the back lot of... No, that's not even a back lot. Those are office buildings on the Culver City Studios.
Starting point is 00:31:35 I think it's now Amazon, right? Yeah, that was the new buildings that they had built for the people that worked. And the other side where we filmed like the quad and all that stuff was where like gone with the wind and all of that shit was filmed uh and that used to be that used to be the back the offices i think pieces of wizard of oz maybe were shot there like it's an old lot along with next to it is sony which which definitely had some wizard of oz i'm not sure what's where, but yeah, lots of old classic movies. And then it was called the Culver City Lot.
Starting point is 00:32:10 And now I think it's been bought by Amazon, if I'm not mistaken. It was Culver Studios when we were there. Okay. And that's where Bill shot Cougar Town. And that's why it was moved there. So Bill could kind of run back and forth between. He didn't run back and forth. Well, I think he didn't do of run back and forth between he ain't run back and forth well i think he didn't do much running back and forth but in theory he could he was over at cougar town
Starting point is 00:32:30 like this he could oversee cougar town um but anyway when you're seeing all those exterior shots that's like yeah donald's right it's not even a back lot it's just like it's just like that was just the outdoor area of this lot and then then all the interior stuff was, was where we're sets on a stage. And also in addition to that, it was, we had shot eight years on 16 millimeter film. And I believe this, this was the first time the show moved to a HD video.
Starting point is 00:32:56 So all of those factors make it have a quite a different look, you know, the look was a bigger factor than I anticipated. It really makes a difference it's a huge huge difference well yeah big laughs my big laughs okay stories that i'm interested in wait we're gonna go through the whole show and don't just do your highlights my bad i thought we were i mean i don't like the way i looked either you don't like the way you looked yeah i just i just you know some it's oh yeah i could tell you talk to you about the way i looked either you don't like the way you looked yeah i just i just you know some it's oh yeah i could tell you talk to you about the way i looked i had fake like all right so my teeth
Starting point is 00:33:31 are not real they're not my the teeth that i were born with i've got veneers and i'm i've but this was going through the process of it so at this point i had like fake like not even veneers. So it was like that gel that they put. Yeah, kind of pretty much. But it's like the gel that they put in your mouth and then they shape your teeth to make it look like you have teeth and stuff like that. And so when I look at this, all I see is the, and you have to have this wash because they, this is back in the day because they grinded down your teeth and your gums are like exposed and stuff like that. And so when I look at that,
Starting point is 00:34:09 all I see is just the smell that I was going through at that time. How long did you have to have smelly teeth? It was for like a good three months and stuff like that. So while we're filming this and then towards the end, I get my permanent jump offs in. Oh, well, you let us know when we're watching these, when you have your when it skips over. Oh, you'll be able to tell because the smile gets so big. We're going to receive.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Should we take a break, Dale? Great idea, Zach. All right. We're going to take a break. When we come back, we're going to talk about how much Donald loves season nine.

Starting point is 00:36:48 I used to have so many men. How this beguiling woman in her 50s. She looked like a million bucks. With zero qualifications. She had a Harvard plaque. Tricks her way past a wall of lawyers and agents. She's got all of these Maseratis and Bentleys all in the driveway. Is it like a mansion?
Starting point is 00:37:08 Yes, it's a mansion. That this queen of the con uses to scam some of the biggest names in professional sports out of untold fortunes. About six million. Approximately 11 million dollars. Nearly 10 million dollars was all gone. Employing whatever means necessary to bleed her victims dry. She would probably have sex with one of her clients. Hide your money in your old rich man because she is on the prowl. Listen to Queen of the Con, season five, The Athlete Whisperer on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Well, there's not a lot of us in this episode. Let's talk about who is there. You've got Dave Franco. You've got Carrie Bichet. You've got Eliz who is there. You got, um, Dave Franco, you got Carrie Bichet, you've got, uh, Eliza coop. You've got Nikki Whelan.
Starting point is 00:38:10 You got Michael Winslow. Michael's real name. I was going to say, what? That's what I called him. So I got a, I got a great story about that too. His name is Mike Mosley.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Yeah. Mike Mosley. He did a great job, but I thought his last name was for some reason i confused him with michael winslow and so i started calling him winslow on set yo michael winslow that's cringe right no doubt so he throws a party and i'm old man at this time but i don don't give a fuck. I'm like 37. And he doesn't invite any of the older people. I don't get an invite.
Starting point is 00:38:49 Zach doesn't. And I'm pissed off, but he invites all the young motherfuckers. But he doesn't invite the OG cast. I'm like, this motherfucker. Right? And I go to Eliza. I go to Eliza Cooper. I go, yo, hold on, Eliza. You got invited to Michael Winslow's party?
Starting point is 00:39:04 And she was like, who? And I said, Michael Winslow's party? And she was like, who? And I said, Michael Winslow. You know, the dude that plays Drew. And she goes, you mean Michael Mosley? And I go, oh. And I go, yeah, well, he didn't invite me to the party. He goes, maybe because you've been calling him Michael Winslow. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Did you ever take ownership of that and apologize to him? Yeah, I was like, motherfucker, why didn't you correct me and say, my name is fucking Michael Mosley? He was like, I didn't realize that you were calling me Michael Winslow. Like, motherfucker, you're so full of shit. Winslow! This is like how motherfuckers call me Clueless. Clueless.
Starting point is 00:39:46 In the spirit of us trying to recreate moments a la Groundhog Day, I thought when we hugged and, well, I say you smell like you've been in prison. That was not funny at all. No, and also- It was funny, but it was not- It wasn't.
Starting point is 00:40:00 And you know what? Our hug was like, like seasons one through eight, it used to be like, oh, we did two guys who love each other. This was like, like seasons one through eight, it used to be like, oh, we did two guys who love each other. This was like, these two want to fuck.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Yeah. Dude, I knock over the stunt man to, to get to you. It was too much. The look of, the way I'm smelling you is like, like too much.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Yeah. And then she comes by and she goes, are you guys, but I think that's the joke also because she's like you guys need a room but we've skipped so much see this is what I'm talking about this is what I'm talking about
Starting point is 00:40:32 the show gets funny to me right when my head is on the motherfucking is on the damn thing that's when I was like alright this is funny the white mannequin It's funny when you give all your students an F because they're white. That's when I started
Starting point is 00:40:50 laughing. I was like, all right, this is funny. She says, raise your hand if you're white. Yeah. F. That was funny. You like that. Yeah. All right, we have a little Guy Love reprise right like that. Yeah. We have a little guy love reprise right after that.
Starting point is 00:41:08 Yeah. Then we run to each other. We say, you smell like a prisoner. And then someone is like, how long has it been since you guys seen each other? We carpooled here this morning. Then we see the new title sequence, which is really weird. I don't think I've ever seen it. That's my first time.
Starting point is 00:41:27 I remember shooting it. It's not Laszlo Bain. I remember shooting it too. I remember being like, why do I have to be in this? I'm not even going to be in the show anymore. Six episodes. But then it's,
Starting point is 00:41:36 it's, it's was, and the artist named was, it's not Laszlo Bain. It's not Chad from Laszlo Bain singing his own song. It's very melancholic all of a sudden. Like they're trying to do, I don't know, man. Listen, I'm not hating on the show.
Starting point is 00:41:54 I just feel like it was the wrong. Just being honest. It was the, I think, and I'm not going to lie. I laughed a couple of times. It just didn't feel like, it's just branded wrong. I agree with that. The branding should have been. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:11 Let me give you a little thing on the title sequence. It's a new version covered by singer-songwriter Waz, who was featured before on Scrubs in My Full Moon, and who was also responsible for the music in Bill Lawrence's other show, Cougartown. The chest x-ray in the title sequence is no longer backwards. And also Bill Lawrence managed to sneak in med school like he wanted in an attempt to position the new season as a spinoff. That's what it should have been right then and there. It should have just said med school and not scrubs.
Starting point is 00:42:40 And I don't think we should have been in it. That's just me. From where we're at right now, I think we're so distracting to the audience. This is why. We're so distracting to the audience. You know what I mean? I hear you. The one person that couldn't be there, you keep Eliza.
Starting point is 00:42:59 And you can even bring in Kelso. But we're so distracting to the audience that it makes it so that it's like, wait, is this Scrubs or is this or is this med school? Who am I supposed to follow? You doing the monologue and her doing the monologue. It's confused. You know what I mean? As a watcher, it's like, oh, the idea was to pass the torch and to warm up the audience to Carrie Boucher and then little by little, J.D. fades out. That was the plan.
Starting point is 00:43:30 We're really heavily in this story in the beginning of it, though. I laughed the janitor quits when he finds out that J.D.'s not really coming back. A lot of people know this, but he was contracted to do the middle. Yeah. But I'm saying story-wise, but he was contracted to do the middle. Yeah. But I'm saying story-wise, it's funny when they do that. I laughed at that little flashback when you tell him that I'm never coming back. Is it you? He just puts the mop.
Starting point is 00:43:54 It doesn't track, but yeah. He just hands off the mop and leaves. His whole reason for staying at the hospital was to torture J.D. But you left in the last episode. Right. No, there's a flashback. It's not saying recently. It's saying the day after I left. No, I know. It's a flashback, but it doesn't track. So you're saying
Starting point is 00:44:13 the day you left, the day you were out, after all of that shit. Come on, man. That's what happened. That's what's funny about it. No, they could have just said they laid his ass off. They should have said something like that. That would have been have been i think it's funny that he leaves it doesn't track because i mean he's holding his sole reason for being was to torture jd when he doesn't have jd he's like fuck this i retire he was there before jd the whole i know he had a conversation about
Starting point is 00:44:40 the episode about how he the groups always changed and everything like that. I know, but like, just like just like J.D. was Cox's favorite student, J.D. became the janitor's raison d'etre. His reason for existing. He committed his whole life to torturing J.D.
Starting point is 00:45:00 And when J.D. was gone, he was like, I'm going to retire. Fuck this place. I'm going to go hang on my squirrel army. There's so many people. He sold the squirrel army. like, I'm going to retire. Fuck this place. I'm going to go hang out with my squirrel army. There's so many people. He sold the squirrel army. Oh, he's going to hang out with Steven. He doesn't own Steven anymore. He won't own Steven. Oh,
Starting point is 00:45:15 whatever. Do we ever find out what happened? He split Steven. I get rowdy and you get Steven. Oh, okay. So JD has Steven somewhere. Okay, so let's get into some more of this. Cox has numbers. How weird was that seeing him in front of all those people, man, doing the freaking monologue now as if he's in a proscenium?
Starting point is 00:45:37 That was good. I thought that set, by the way, was good. If you're going to do a college classroom set, that was a really good-looking set by Cabot McMullen. And I thought Johnny did a good job with that monologue, obviously. I was pissed off after I saw his office. I mean, his classroom. And then I saw my classroom. The size of a shoebox.
Starting point is 00:46:02 Well, I think the idea was that. And he gets to freaking, he gets to freaking he gets the freaking hole yeah that was good though i mean i was that was he did a really good job and then we see me meet so he cox gives different um numbers to the the med students and he gives carrie bichet 19 meaning her ranking is 19th from his favorite. And we meet the beautiful Australian actress, Nikki Whelan, who doesn't have much to do in this first episode,
Starting point is 00:46:34 but nobody can understand what nobody can understand her. That's kind of funny. What is she saying? He has no idea what she's saying. Drew and Eliza, we established they have, there's a lot of sex in this episode. They established the relationships quite early.
Starting point is 00:46:48 I know. I think they really wanted to say in the pilot, like, guys, there's going to be lots of sex. Please stay tuned. Sex with a lot of young people. Hey, guys, young people will be banging. Please stay tuned. Tonight on a very special episode of Med School, there will be banging. be banging yes tonight there'll be some jokes and banging on school so you've got carrie bichet hooking up with dave franco and how fucked up is it that dave franco takes a secret picture of her bending over and prints it and just carries
Starting point is 00:47:25 it around and carries it around okay so I was confused is he carrying it around to show people we never know or is he carrying it around because he never wants to forget the moment I mean
Starting point is 00:47:41 is it essential like first of all one two his ass should be in jail for shit like that never wants to forget the moment. I mean, is it essential? Like, first of all, one, two, his ass should be in jail for shit like that, right? Of course. Don't you go to jail for stuff like that? You do, you can, yes. First of all, it's so fucked up.
Starting point is 00:47:56 And then the only thing I hated more than that was the fact that when JD finally has a good teacher moment, he becomes, he's very, you know, empathized with Carrie Boucher, obviously, because he was in her spot. That's the whole point of handing off this journey to Carrie Boucher's character. And then he leads her off and then sneaks a look at the picture again, which was so like, I was like, no. I was like, no, that is not the way. First of all, how does he recognize her if it's a picture of her bent over?
Starting point is 00:48:27 Right. how does he recognize her if it's a picture of her bent over right she says this is a picture of me and then i think jd responds to that okay but but just for clarity's sake i know it's a comedy and everything but when we see cole take the picture and she's bent over like she's putting her socks on or whatever so it doesn't really make sense that she would be able to i mean it's that's what i'm trying to say it's collegey now the way the show looks it does feel very national lampoonish old school lampoonish it does have lampoonish vibes yeah lampoonish vibes um now jd i really didn't like jd as a teacher i know that's supposed to be the joke that he's like so performative and lights, camera, teach. It's like so much and none of the students are into it.
Starting point is 00:49:11 Um, understandably there was a cool fantasy when, um, Lights, camera, teach. What? I know. What? It's funny because he's supposed to be like bad at it, which we're supposed to go, oh, I see JD's not good at this. But I was kind of cringing like, oh, he's annoying. I don't want to be annoying.
Starting point is 00:49:33 No, but what? Hold on. Lights, camera, teach. He's not teaching for the students. He's teaching for him. He's freaking, I'm fucking on stage. He's on stage at this moment he's looking in jd's imagination there isn't a full camera crew yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:49:50 absolutely he's living his musical theater he has to come up with a sign for when to take them he comes up with jazz fans yeah he's living his dream as a performer in front of that giant Yeah, he's living his dream as a performer in front of that giant classroom. Oh my God. Now, I did like the fantasy of I thought it was Shotwell when Carrie leaps over the counter. Yeah, and Johnny C, who would
Starting point is 00:50:13 totally be cast as a sheriff on a manhunt. Totally. Southern sheriff on a manhunt with dogs. Johnny C would get that part. I thought that looked cool. Say less. Johnny C would go, you I thought that looked cool say less Johnny C would go you want what oh
Starting point is 00:50:28 a state trooper on a manhunt with a dog yeah I'm there say less can my biceps be out I'm there can the
Starting point is 00:50:38 can the shirt around my biceps be very fitted okay I'll get the next flight out I'm in I am on my way. Where are we filming? New Mexico? On my way.
Starting point is 00:50:48 I've worked there. I'm on my way. Where are we staying? The Andalus? I'll be there. What's it called? Not the Andalus. Yes, it is.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Is that what it's called? The Andalus. There's like two hotels in New Mexico, in Albuquerque, where actors always stay. Is that the one that you're talking about? The Andalus. I think that may be what I stayed in, too.
Starting point is 00:51:09 That's the one everybody stays in, with the courtyard downstairs, with the little booths all around. I think so. You've stayed there. I may have stayed in another one. No, that's the one. I stayed in one that was kind of nice. This was nice. It's nice.
Starting point is 00:51:23 Or it was when I was there. All right. The Four Star Hotel. Let's take a break. nice. Or it was when I was there. Alright. The four-star hotel. Let's take a break. We'll be right back after these fine words. When you find that bright spot to help you get through your day, it's powerful. That's where the bright side comes in.

Starting point is 00:52:32 She looked like a million bucks. With zero qualifications. She had a Harvard plaque. Tricks her way past a wall of lawyers and agents. She's got all of these Maseratis and Bentleys all in the driveway. Is it like a mansion? Yes, it's a mansion. That this queen of the con uses to scam some of the biggest names in professional sports out of untold fortunes.
Starting point is 00:52:56 About six million. Approximately 11 million dollars. Nearly 10 million dollars was all gone. Employing whatever means necessary to bleed her victims dry.

Listen to Queen of the Con, Season 5, The Athlete Whisperer, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. If you've been following the news, you know that from healthcare access to safe schools,
Starting point is 00:53:31 LGBTQ plus rights are under attack. And it's about time queer and trans youth get the microphone and tell their stories in their own words. I'm Raquel Willis. Join me on my new podcast, Queer Chronicles, a show where LGBTQ plus folks tell their own stories in their own words. This season, teens will share all about growing up in political battleground states. I wish I could feel more comfortable in my own body here, but that's just not the case. And follow along as

Starting point is 00:54:34 Okay, so Lucy sleeps with Cole. We got the picture. Oh, I laughed at that when I said to Cox, stay open for business in here, in your heart cage. I like that JD's wearing the jacket from dangerous minds yeah so how did jd get the jacket from dangerous minds we never learned that probably wanted at an auction michelle pfeiffer probably had an auction but he was auctioning off and he puts on but he adds the professorial. Why do professors always have those? Can someone tell me about why that is a trope? Why do professors always have-
Starting point is 00:55:10 Because it gets hot. No, but what is the reason? Oh, the elbow patches? Yeah, what is the reason? Because they're on their table. They're on the desk talking to the kids. Dan, I'll look that up, please. With their grating, with their heads down.
Starting point is 00:55:21 I just want to know why we associate elbow patches with professors. It has to be because the elbows are on the desks all the time. So based on a little cursory web search, it looks like the stereotype started because tweed was a relatively cheap but warm material, and professors were a relatively poorly paid class of professionals, so they kept wearing them until the elbows wore out, and then they patched them. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:48 Well, that makes sense, but now it's become just a thing. If you're going to play a professor, you better have some elbow patches on. Ooh! So, but JD, when he bought Michelle Pfeiffer's Dangerous Minds coat, it didn't have elbow patches, so he
Starting point is 00:56:04 added them. them yeah his leather it's a leather jacket right no the leather patches probably suede probably i'm talking about the jacket no it's not she wear a leather jacket in that i'm missing i'm confusing it with uh freaking la la land she wears the leather jacket the red leather jacket for the audition oh for the audition that's dangerous for the audition. That's Dangerous Minds meets... Oh, when she does the Dangerous Minds audition. That shit's so funny. What does she say about,
Starting point is 00:56:32 no, you be chillin'? No, you be buggin'. No, you be trippin'. Yeah, you be trippin'. Yeah. Why you be trippin', lady? Why you be trippin'? No.
Starting point is 00:56:42 No, I'm such... You be tripping? No, no such, you be tripping. And I love that the casting director is like, it's actually, it's an actual casting director. That's reading with her. Yeah. Hey lady, you be tripping.
Starting point is 00:56:57 No, no Jamal. Lady, why you be tripping? I think the character's name is Jamal, right? She's like, no Jamal. But lady, why you be tripping? I think the character's name is Jamal, right? Yeah, no Jamal. But Lady, why you be tripping? That's right.
Starting point is 00:57:10 And is it a Deborah Aquila? It might be Deborah Aquila. I don't know. Can you look that up, guys? Does Deborah Aquila play casting director in La La Land? Lady, why you be tripping? That's just hilarious. No, I want to say it's like no rahim but it's probably no jamal
Starting point is 00:57:26 it's something like i think it's jamal no jamal you be tripping you be tripping that shit's hilarious and anyone who's an actor who's been out here in this town that the reason that is so funny is because a some casting directors will will read like that to you and you're like you have to act off of it and to the idea of like you know just doing it of her auditioning for a dangerous minds like role was just so funny i don't know if i'm gonna open tiktok you know they're about to ban this fucking app anyway. They are.
Starting point is 00:58:07 That's true. That's just gone, dude. Wait. TikTok about to be gone. Can you play it? Play it in the. Yeah, I got you. I got you.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Hold on. Daniel's going to play it for us. This is my classroom. You don't like it. The door's to my left. Lady, why you be tripping like that? No, Jamal. You be tripping.
Starting point is 00:58:36 But you know what's so good about Emma Stone? She sold the shit out of it. Like, you were like, I cast her. She's got the part. This is where I get pissed off. In the beginning of the movie, that first audition she goes to where she's studying it and we're doing La La Land all of a sudden. I digress. But anyway, in the beginning of the movie.
Starting point is 00:58:52 This is now a La La Land rewatch podcast. Yeah, it's a rewatch podcast. Where she goes to the freaking audition and she's freaking standing there and she's talking to like her lover on the phone. And she's like, yo, so when are you going to tell her? You're going to tell your wife in such and such that we're together or when you, and he has a change of heart and she, and he, she has to play it off like she's happy, but she's crying and she's crushed. And the casting director is not paying attention. She's killing it in that scene. She's destroying it.
Starting point is 00:59:24 And the casting director doesn't see it. That shit is so frustrating. But I didn't know during that movie if you're supposed to think that she's a great actress early on or not. I think you're supposed to think she's a great actress. When you see her one-woman show, it didn't look that great, right? No, I think the thing is, that's the whole thing. There are so many great actors out there. And until you get your break, until somebody is willing to take a chance on you, you're not going to get that work.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Right. Right. And so here she is killing all of this shit. She's in there fucking crushing it. And all these other people suck. And she's fucking nailing it. And the casting directors got fucking Joe Blow on their mind and is not thinking of them. Right.
Starting point is 01:00:05 And same thing with, you know what I mean? Same thing with the director. Director's like, yeah, she's different. She's not the one. You know, I'm really into this girl. I'm not into this girl. Fuck this. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:00:15 You know what I mean? Right. And then to your point, when she has that audition where she sings that audition song, someone, she's so dropped into what they were looking for that someone then takes a chance on her and her career takes off. And it takes off. And it's like, finally, I see you.
Starting point is 01:00:31 And then everybody sees her. Now, do you need to go into your loud monologue about how there's plenty of jazz clubs in Paris and Ryan Gosling could have gone there? No, no, no. Because Ryan's just kin now. It's all good. I'm all right.
Starting point is 01:00:43 I really miss the era of you uh drunk tweeting about la la land while you were on airplanes that was a phase i watched that mood because i listen man that movie i would love but back when i was on twitter i would see like donald's drunk on an airplane again because he's fucking he's writing tweets like there are plenty of jazz clubs in paris i don't know why he didn't follow her no because he didn't, he's writing tweets like, there are plenty of jazz clubs in Paris. I don't know why he didn't follow her. No, because he didn't need to. I don't, look, now I look at it and I'm like, look,
Starting point is 01:01:16 in my eyes, this story is, it's the journey, right? Everybody has a different journey and these two connected at one point. Yeah. But I did want them to be together in the end. Me too. It's so beautiful. It's a beautiful movie. But he's so happy at the end of the movie also so it doesn't matter
Starting point is 01:01:29 I don't know that he's happy at the end of the movie he had exactly what he wanted but he didn't want her back then either yes he did you don't think his heart was broken when she walks out of the club no he would have made it to the show he would have made it to the show if he wanted her no when she walks out of the club he would have made it to the show. He would have made it to the show if he wanted her. No, when she walks out of the club after the fans...
Starting point is 01:01:46 He would have made it to the show. He would have told John Legend to kiss my fucking ass. I got to go see my girl. But that's the decision he made. This is way more important. Listen, that's the decision he made then. But years later, when she comes with her husband to the jazz show, and Lee is about to leave, and at the door has that fantasy,
Starting point is 01:02:04 and they make eye contact I I think he realizes that she's the one that got away and he's so sad that she's walking I think they both realize what life could have been for them if they would have stayed together and how happy they could have been but I think when they look at each other they're both in a really good space I disagree i think you guys have that interpretation of it i like that it's kind of ambiguous i've had this fight a lot it's supposed to be my father rest in peace used to love a good end of la la land debate but i i don't i'm sorry joelle what's your interpretation my interpretation was always that that they're both melancholic
Starting point is 01:02:41 okay my interpretation used to be your interpretation. It did. But I've watched it a few times since. You know what I mean? This is really cracking me up. I've watched it a few times since. My thought initially was that he was sad but happy for her. And she was like, wow, that would have been interesting if I stayed with him. But life turned out pretty sweet for me.
Starting point is 01:03:04 She was good. Like, she seems like in such a great place at the end. I think Chazelle went out of his way to make that husband not exciting and not as sexy and not as interesting as Ryan's character was. Yes, but it's- I don't know anything about him! Here's a secret reveal. Joelle reads a ton of romance. Here's a secret reveal.
Starting point is 01:03:22 Joelle reads a ton of romance. And I really feel like there's a lot of, a lot of romances end with, okay, I could have been with this exciting person, but they wouldn't have been the healthy person for me. So I went with this person who's more subdued, but who gets me and is very supportive and has made my life better. And that's kind of the vibe I got with him.
Starting point is 01:03:39 Like, no, he's not as like hot and exciting and like fun as she had with Ryan, but he's stable. And she was able to have a career. Please call him by his character's name. It is Sebastian. I'm so sorry. Sebastian has really been there for her. He really loves her.
Starting point is 01:03:55 And because of that, she was able to have the career that she wanted. Daniel, what are your thoughts? I'm tempted to agree. I mean, you know, it's,
Starting point is 01:04:02 it's the sexy thing to want her to be with Ryan Gosling. It's the sexy thing to have that fiery. Sorry, Sebastian. To do with Sebastian. It's the dangerous thing. But that's not life sometimes. That's not life. Now, they would have fought.
Starting point is 01:04:19 That would have been the worst thing ever if she was with him, if you really think about it. As self-centered as he was as well. You know what I mean like she would she needed somebody who's not gonna be you know what I mean it's just heartbreak the way they look at each other at the end so much so much what might have been between the two of them I think
Starting point is 01:04:35 that makes a better movie it's too nice to put it together I don't want the ending to be any different I'm just I love the ending I think it's brilliant in that it gives the audience this discussion, and they can have this discussion this many years later. My personal interpretation is that there was a longing for what could have been. This is why past lives is good.
Starting point is 01:04:58 How about this? Let's do the notebook. I don't know the notebook as well as I know La La Land. You just do it like this. At the end of the movie, the notebook, she's with the dude that she fell in love with on the lake. You know what I mean? Instead of the other guy. The one that was the good guy at the end.
Starting point is 01:05:19 It's not like her life would have been that much different. I think she would have still now going back to, she would have had a great life with him. In the notebook, she would have had a great life with that guy. She would have had a great life with the Ryan Gosling character. In this one, in La La Land, I feel like it's the same thing. She would have had a great life with this dude. And she would have had a great life.
Starting point is 01:05:43 She's having a great life with with the guy there is no wrong answer at the end uh for her for him it's a fucking huge difference bro and that's why you're saying i don't know if he's happy or not the difference at the end is in his mind holy shit we would have been i would have been jay-z i would you know to her beyonce instead i'm fucking underground backpack rapper and who's still in the club but no he has his own club he has his own jazz club what are you talking about yeah but he don't got his own label you know what i'm saying that's not my interpretation at all my i'm sorry audience we'll stop the temptation is the temptation listen my point is they love when you talk about la la land oh really
Starting point is 01:06:27 this podcast what if this podcast just became a hundred percent each week we talk about listen i'm here for it no i just want to say i disagree with you on that he's got his own jazz club he's happy he i'm sure he's like hooking up he wasn't happy i'm saying he's content with his career his dream has come true he owns the jazz club but then the love of his life walks back in with her husband and i always felt that he was crushed okay yeah and that he dropped the ball by not going to Paris and by not going to her one-woman show. He didn't. He wasn't invited.
Starting point is 01:07:12 Well, he fucked up by not going to the one-woman show, for sure. That's where he fucked up. But to be fair, I'm glad he didn't have to sit through that one-woman show. It didn't look that great. Okay. She became a movie star because of it dude right but that doesn't mean
Starting point is 01:07:28 a genius talented actress necessarily writes the best one woman show that you have to sit through for two hours and be like it looks like you're having
Starting point is 01:07:35 so much fun up there what was it say goodbye to Pasadena or something yeah something like that I don't know alright

She looked like a million bucks. With zero qualifications. She had a Harvard plaque. Tricks her way past a wall of lawyers and agents. She's got all of these Maseratis and Bentleys all in the driveway. Is it like a mansion?
Starting point is 01:10:13 Yes, it's a mansion. That this queen of the con uses to scam some of the biggest names in professional sports out of untold fortunes. About six million. Approximately $11 million. Nearly $10 million was all gone. Employing whatever means necessary to bleed her victims dry. She would probably have sex with one of her clients. Hide your money in your old rich man because she is on the prowl.
Starting point is 01:10:43 Listen to Queen of the con season five the athlete whisperer on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and we're back we're back everybody likes a little ass play don't even act like you don't okay calm down i think there was a lot of ass play in this episode how do you know there's ass play I'm just guessing okay I'm assuming making an ass out of
Starting point is 01:11:14 you and me okay I'm just guessing okay so Drew Cox says he's going to take a look oh by the way Beard Fassay still works at this hospital I saw him I was about to say some of these people in the background are playing interns, and they were interns when we were interns. So there's something wrong. Well, Beard Fassé is definitely a doctor.
Starting point is 01:11:33 He's not an intern, and he's still there. Well, Sean is an intern. And then what the fuck is Reggie in the purple scrubs doing in the rounds in med school? Maybe he decided to become a med student. But why does he still got the purple on? I don't know. It was probably like them not knowing the rules of the different scrubs
Starting point is 01:11:53 colors in episode one or something. I don't know. Oh boy, they're already crossing the line. Cox takes an interest in Drew and... But let's say why he takes an interest in Drew. Cox does say why he takes an interest in Drew. Cox likes to pick on the weaker ones. The weaker, insecure interns Cox has always enjoyed picking on.
Starting point is 01:12:19 And he's doing it to Lucy, Carrie B. Shea's character. And Drew sees it and decides to jump in the way and be a shield for Lucy and be like a big brother to stop Cox's rage on her and turn the attention elsewhere because he's been in jail and he's, he's, you know, we learned that his backstory is that he dropped out of he dropped he he flunked out or he he he like i think he dropped out or flamed out meaning just emotionally couldn't handle it because there's a lot of references to how hard it is to be a med student and there's some there's some there's a couple of references to like you guys aren't gonna last and and and
Starting point is 01:13:00 so he flamed out and then for some reason he was in jail. Yeah. For something that he did. I don't know if we ever learned that in these 12 episodes. We'll find out. Maybe. We'll see. But Joe seems to get a kick out of him. And then JD, as we said earlier, finally talks to Lucy. And that's kind of nice because he feels like he's a really bad teacher.
Starting point is 01:13:19 He doesn't get invited out to party with them. They don't come to his beer party in the classroom. Only Turk shows up, and JD has these glow stick necklaces to wear, and Turk won't even wear the glow stick necklaces. And then they go on a walk, and they see all- That's kind of off-brand, though. Yeah, I feel like Turk would have rocked the glow stick necklace. Oh, yeah. It's him and JD. They're on the boat. They're outside. I love that term, by the way. What?
Starting point is 01:13:45 We're outside. They're outside. I love that term, by the way. What? We're outside. We're outside. Instead of what you're trying to get into, you want to go outside? That's a term? Remember when you was a kid and you used to say that to people? Yo, you going outside? That's back, but for adults.
Starting point is 01:14:01 We outside, yo. We outside, yo. Meet us outside. We coming out. We outside. And when you outside, you got We outside, yo. Meet us outside. We coming out. We outside. And when you outside, you gotta be really outside, according to Beyonce because if you not that, you not that outside. Alright. I'll start using that. I like it.
Starting point is 01:14:17 I still like what you're trying to get into. Don't get it twisted. That's our thing. So when I text you to do something, you want me to say, do you want to go outside? I mean, if you could find a funny way to say it you're trying to go outside yeah oh i always think about you and i'm like if it just feels like you're not trying to get into anything yeah i'm not trying to rsvp yeah you didn't rsvp to my birthday i'll be at your brunch bro i'm fucking skipping vegas'll be at your brunch, bro. I'm fucking skipping Vegas to go to your brunch, bro. Why were you going to Vegas?
Starting point is 01:14:51 My kid got made hoops basketball. I'm skipping that shit to be at your brunch, bro. Who's going to take him? He's not going. Ask some other parent to take him. Uh-uh, man. Come on now. Really?
Starting point is 01:15:03 Parenting 101. You can't have other parents that you trust escort him? They can't do sleepovers either. Sorry, guys. What, because of his nut allergy? That's one reason. I don't know these motherfuckers. I don't know these motherfuckers. They might know the kids. I don't know these motherfuckers.
Starting point is 01:15:20 But does Rocco ever want to have a sleepover? I mean, if your kids want to sleep over here, that's cool. But there's no way I'm letting my kids sleep over your house. I'm sorry. I've even, I've even, I've even, I've even designed my house so that if my kid wants to have friends over, it's fun for the kids when they get here and they can have fun. I have a question. She's not going nowhere. She's not going nowhere to go.
Starting point is 01:15:41 I'm sorry. Never. There's a select few. There's a very, if there's a select few, there's a very select few and you have to, and my wife has either vetted like straight up, man. Vetting's important. You got to vet.
Starting point is 01:15:55 No, but even vetting, even vetting doesn't necessarily crack the surface. Anybody could be anybody in an interview. You know what I mean? I could be somebody else. I'm fucking somebody else in every interview that I go on. So your kids will never
Starting point is 01:16:07 be allowed to sleep at a friend's house. Not until they're much older. So those poor kids are like, I just want to go to a movie and sleep over at my friend's house. No and no. You can go to a movie. I'll take you to a movie if that's the case. I don't mind that shit. You're not sleeping over there.
Starting point is 01:16:24 I'll be picking you up. There you go. All right. When everybody starts to go down, guess who's coming to get you? What time are y'all going to bed? You don't know? I'll be there at 830, 930, the latest. That's what's up.
Starting point is 01:16:41 That's what's up. That, my friends, is what's up. So we, Joelle organized a debate between some fans. Hell yeah. Joelle, how did this work out? What happened? So we asked you guys to send your voicemails to scrubsiheart at gmail.com, picking an episode and whether you loved it or you hated it. So we got a ton of emails emails a handful of voicemails
Starting point is 01:17:06 if you want to send in for any future episodes just make sure you put like which episode it is in the title so we have one positive person and one who was not feeling season nine all right let me ask you a question before we continue were these people saying the whole season or specific episodes i i reached out to them and asked them to record specifically on season one, episode one, so that we can have something different. If you're going to submit going forward, what we'd like you to do, if you want to be on the air, is pick a specific episode and put in the subject heading to Joelle, this is about season nine, episode four.
Starting point is 01:17:42 Here's why I love it. Here's why I hate it. about season nine episode four here's why i love it here's why i hate it maybe put season nine episode four love or season nine episode four hate just to make it simple for joelle because she's a very busy woman very smart and keep it and carmen who helps us carmen shout out carmen and what's the max time joelle like three minutes three minutes max? Three minutes max. And we want audio. We want audio. Okay. So this is for Scrubs Season 9, Episode 1. We'll start with Erin.
Starting point is 01:18:12 She was not a fan. Oh, Erin. Okay, go ahead. Hey, Zach, Donald, Joelle, and Daniel. My name is Erin Fedorco, and i'm calling on behalf of all season nine haters specifically i'm going to talk about why i hated season nine episode one so much it is the biggest tease of my entire life to me what made scrubs so perfect was the fact that JD was casted perfectly by Zach Braff. And anyone who knows me knows I love Zach Braff.
Starting point is 01:18:57 So season nine was an absolute tease because it gave me exactly what I wanted from the start. I got an opening monologue about how he talks about Sacred Heart and his time there. And from that moment, he has one of the funniest episodes I have seen from him in a long time. Some examples are the entire scene where JD and Turk are trying to find each other in the hospital. And the eagle scene where they are running around the campus and they run into Dr. Cox. But I think the funniest thing about this episode is when JD says to Dr. Cox, stay open for business in your heart cage. That is probably the hardest I've laughed this entire season of Scrubs. And it is a shame that it was given to me in season nine, episode one.
Starting point is 01:20:01 episode one. And finally, what made Scrubs work was the chemistry that was built between the core cast over eight seasons. And Bill Lawrence gave us exactly that in season nine, episode one.
Starting point is 01:20:25 Scrubs is synonymous with JD which is synonymous with Zach Braff and the only thing that season 9 left me wanting more of was Zach Braff I needed more JD and Zach Braff in the same way
Starting point is 01:20:42 that Christopher Walken needed more Cowbell I believe for season 9 of Scrubs to have worked in the same way that Christopher Walken needed more cowbell. I believe for season nine of Scrubs to have worked better, it had to have been named something completely different. And the only reason that I am able to forgive Bill Lawrence for season nine of Scrubs is that he created Ted Lasso. Thank you guys. Love you guys.
Starting point is 01:21:09 This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for letting me talk my shit on season nine of Scrubs. I've been waiting a lifetime to do this. She's so sweet. What's her name again? Aaron, thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:21:24 Thank you for the very nice words about me um uh and well said i think she mentioned a couple things we mentioned although she happened to love the moment when we did an eagle and you know what i think i think this is probably one of the best ideas in a long time and this is why if Star Wars did this this would be great people got to air out their fucking you know what I'm saying
Starting point is 01:21:52 their grievances and not be penalized for it not judged for it or whatever you know what I mean a young lady expressed everything she wanted to express she has a very she's very fond of you Zach obviously You know what I mean? A young lady expressed everything she wanted to express. She has a very she's very fond of you, Zach, obviously. So I don't think the show would have worked. I get it. I don't think the show would have worked.
Starting point is 01:22:20 Regardless, if you had if you would have been in all six, I mean, all 13 or 12, I bet you she would have loved it. So I will say this is a great way. As long as you don't hurt nobody's feelings i'm all for it i'm sure there are people i'm sure there are people that sent some shit like and this bitch and let me tell you something about this asshole and let me know does this make does this make you want to go do you wish now that you could go on a star wars podcast and say the grievances you have about something you don't like in star everybody knows my grievances fucking fucking star wars knows my grievances i don't think i'm gonna ever do a star wars again because you think you've hurt someone's feelings i i might have hurt someone's feelings dave filoni do you think that dave no i don't think i heard there's feelings. Dave Filoni. Do you think that Dave Filoni goes, fuck Donald Faison?
Starting point is 01:23:06 No way I've heard Dave Filoni. Just like you say, fuck your sound effects machine. Do you think Dave Filoni is like, fuck your sound effects machine? But I definitely feel like whoever was involved with the sequel trilogy might be like, I don't like Donald Faison anymore. I'm sure they love you. No, I hate him. Although when we were at the premiere you did give love to Kathleen Kennedy's twin instead
Starting point is 01:23:28 of her that may have hurt your chances I was being fake too when I did it I deserved that also and I deserved that also if you have an identical twin and you're hosting a giant premiere I'm sure a lot of people are going to get confused she should wear a t-shirt that says I'm not Kathleen Kennedy
Starting point is 01:23:44 yeah but also I shouldn't have went up to Kathleen Kennedy and, or who I thought was Kathleen Kennedy and lied my ass off on how much I enjoyed the movie too. Cause I really didn't. Well, now you're definitely not going to get. All right, Joel,
Starting point is 01:23:58 let's hear the person who loves season nine episode one. Dan, I'll take it away. Got you here. Here is Samantha. hey y'all my name is samantha and i'm from north carolina episode one of season nine is my favorite because it gives you a sense of normalcy you have right off the bat jd walking in doing his inner monologue thing. We have Elliot over here yelling at med students in our high-pitched, cute little voice. Cute little pregnant belly.
Starting point is 01:24:33 Turk, he's being his silly old self. We've got Dr. Cox with his egotistical, diabolical, cutthroat self telling these med students, you're going to kill somebody. And then you got JD and Turk acting like they've not seen each other in what I'm guessing years, but they just carpooled to school together. But they're running to each other, and it's like a flashback in a sense from their honeymoon, or Carla and Turk's honeymoon. I guess JD and Turk's honeymoon.
Starting point is 01:25:11 JD was on the honeymoon. We were together. But I also like the med students. You have Lucy, Drew, and Cole. Drew and Cole, they all bring this weird little trio dynamic that you had with Elliot, Turk, and JD. And it was kind of like a warming you up to a new thing. I also like the fact that Joe was brought over. Jo was probably one of my absolute favorites in season eight. Like she had this just dark self about her. And I feel like I have a dark side, like dark self, like dark humor. And I love that about her. Like she just cracks these dark jokes to kind of deal with
Starting point is 01:26:07 things. And I feel like I do the same thing. So I basically connected with that. So her coming over was a nice adjustment as well. But honestly, my favorite part that still actually made everything still feel normal was when dr cox took on drew as his number one and of course you know how jd gets when dr cox takes any interest in anybody else he gets so jealous i absolutely love that shit because it's either dr cox just likes to fuck with him about it, or he just, well, Dr. Cox just knows who's going to be a good doctor. And so he takes on that person. And even J.D. knows that, but he still gets jealous because he never gets that affection from Dr. Cox. I feel like it was just a great transition into season nine. And to be honest, I liked season nine. I'm probably going to be one of the only ones that do,
Starting point is 01:27:15 but I enjoyed the season and I enjoyed this podcast. And I want to say thank you guys so much for this opportunity. Thank you, Joelle. And Donald and Zach, I love you all so much. And hey, Daniel. Nice to meet you all. I thought she was going to skip you, Daniel, but you got a shout out. Have a wonderful day. Thank you again so much. Very sweet.
Starting point is 01:27:37 Samantha, right? Very nice. Yes, that was Samantha. Thank you, Samantha, very much for that. And go ahead, Donald. Thank you, Samantha, very much for that. And go ahead, Donald. You know, I once again think that this is something that a bunch of companies and especially tentpole shows and movies should do.
Starting point is 01:28:04 You should have the opportunity to, as long as you don't hurt anybody's feelings, the positive and the negative, what works and what doesn't work. You know what I mean? It'd actually be an interesting way to review a movie. It's like what Siskel and Ebert used to do. You remember that great show where they would hash it out sometimes? Because now things are just rotten tomatoes. I was listening to Samantha, and I'm thinking, I would love to hear
Starting point is 01:28:20 people do a pro and con of a film. Let me hear the person who loved it, and the person who didn't like it. And, and their reasons, like, as opposed to just like someone's blanket statement. That was interesting.
Starting point is 01:28:31 Yeah. As long as you don't disrespect anyone. Yeah. And be respectful. As both of those, as both of those women were respectful. Yeah. That's what's up.
Starting point is 01:28:39 Well, you know, I, I did, I, I think in the, in the macro, when I zoom out,
Starting point is 01:28:44 I did not dislike it as much as I thought I was going to I will agree with you the leads are clearly charming I mean not us the new leads are clearly charming people and it was written by Bill Lawrence it was directed by Michael Spiller who's a wonderful director
Starting point is 01:28:59 and that's it that is episode 1 of season 9 everybody Donald do you have anything you want to say? this is going to be interesting because you know you get it I get it the gripe is what a difference a name makes you know what I mean
Starting point is 01:29:17 by naming it Scrubs everybody has beef I really do believe that if it wasn't called Scrubs and it was a spin-off of Scrubs and intended to be a spin-off of Scrubs, if it looked like a spin-off of, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:29:34 It would be way more successful and people would have gravitated towards it. If it was Scrubs SVU. Right. I laughed because I laughed a couple of times out loud. And there are Scrubs episodes where I didn't laugh at all. Did you laugh at stay open for business in your heart cage?
Starting point is 01:29:53 Dude, I laughed at us. I'm not going to lie. I laughed at the guy love shit and me knocking dude over. I laughed at- Your face is so funny. The determination to hug you. I did not laugh at the prison line, but I laughed at everything else. You know, it's good.
Starting point is 01:30:07 One thing I thought as we were listening to these women's opinions was like this exercise might be informative if and when we do a scrubs reunion, like to help us not fall in a bill, but us as well to not fall into pitfalls. You know, how can we make that something new and fresh and different while still giving the audience something they want, which is seeing everyone and all the characters and where they are these days. The other question is, do you bring back the people from med school?
Starting point is 01:30:41 No, no. But they're all huge stars now. All of them. No. All of them are big stars. Well, we'll see. Gary, Dave.
Starting point is 01:30:53 We'll see. We're going to introduce a couple of other characters. I love that Rob Macchio makes a little cameo at the end. He made his little cameo in the end credits. Yeah, the credits. Rob will definitely be in the new incarnation. I would love to see he's gonna have to get in shape i don't think he's got that body currently he looks pretty good in the pictures i'm just saying i'm just saying that i think rob would
Starting point is 01:31:17 be the first to say if you want me in a banana hammock i need to go to the gym no because the banana hammock's going to be full. That's all that matters, right? It's not about the physique. We know that he's got a third leg. One on that note. Five, six, Danielle Robay. And I'm Simone Boyce. Hi, friends.
