I am in my animation room right now, guys. Are you rolling on your deck? Are you rolling? I'm not rolling on my... Am I shooting something? No, make sure you're rolling on your audio recording device Yes, I am recording. I'm recording. It's on the zoom. It's I got I can we hear your level Can we hear your level check sound? This is my level

Well, that sounds like you're be singing loudly the whole time. I don't think you will be Is this my level? It feels like my level. Yeah. That might be too high, but that's perfect. That's too high. No one wants to hear yelling. But you also shouldn't set your level at the point that you're yelling. You should set the level at the point that you're talking. That's not a good level check, Donald. You've been in the business a long time. It's at seven. It's at seven. It's at seven.

Okay. Okay. Donald, do you notice anything about my image? It's a long time. It's at seven, it's at seven. Okay, okay. Donald, do you notice anything about my image? No. I switched back to using the fancy camera, I thought you might notice. It looks the same. That's not true, Daniel, you notice, right?

You look very good. You look crazy. Well, I didn't say he looked bad, I just said the imagery looks the same. You look like Chris. I'm not crazy, right? Do Dan and Joelle, you notice the quality of the camera, right? Yeah, pretty immediately. The camera quality and also the fact

that it's not tracking you around the room as you move. Yeah, that was annoying. I guess that's a good feature from Apple if you're what? If you're like on Zoom calls for work or something, but if you're recording a video podcast. That is not good for Zoom calls if you're like on Zoom calls for work or something, but if you're recording a video podcast. That is not good for Zoom calls if you're on work. Why, what happened to you? Nothing happened to me,

but if you're being tracked by your camera, let's say you go take a shit and that camera tracks you all the way into the bathroom. It doesn't do that, Donald. It doesn't follow you around the house. Imagine the camera flies. You said the camera tracks you. If you move left and right, it pans left and right.

It doesn't, it doesn't walk around the house. I was about to say. The camera flies off of the monitor. Like a robot. Where are you going? I've been seeing these rolling robots all around West Hollywood. I don't know if you, if listeners, if you have these in your neighborhood yet, I'm sure those of you in large American cities probably see them.

But in West Hollywood, there are so many robots. It's very creepy rolling around delivering stuff. What are they delivering? I guess food. I don't know. I've never, I don't live in an area where I've, where a delivery robot could make it. What are they doing? Pretty much anything you can order off of your Grubhub or Postmates.

Postmates, DoorDash. And what happens? It rolls up to your door and you put in a code? Yeah. Have you guys received a robot delivery? I have one time, yes. And what was it like, Dan? Talk us through it. Well, me and my friends were so excited. The robot's name was George. We stood outside of our apartment, watching it roll down the street. And then a group of children stood in front of it such that it stopped

moving. And we had to yell down the street, Hey, that's our robot. That's our robot. And they said, What are you going to do about it? Oh, my God. And then I started to watch. What neighborhood did you live in, Danil? This is literally like in like West Hollywood off of La Brea, like a totally friendly neighborhood. And then all of a sudden then me and my friends like, OK, then we're coming down here. And then they ran inside. And then George brought us our McDonald's. The robots are designed to look kind of like Wally

to me. Yes. And they they have big eyes. Wally and Eva, like Wally and Eva. Yes. Right. They were clearly designed to look very wide eyed. And to me, I received them as little children who are lost because they Wally and Eva, right? They were clearly designed to look very wide-eyed and to me, I received them as little children who are lost because they have big eyes. I really, my heart always breaks for these things. I feel the same way.

They're designed with giant puppy dog eyes. They have their name on the side and every time I see them, they're confused because you see them stopped at like a sidewalk cafe because it doesn't know how to get around the sidewalk cafe. The other day I saw one and it would bumped into another robot and they didn't know how to pass each other.

They were just at an impasse. It's so cute. Silly little robots. But when I see them crossing the street alone, I just get, I feel like it's like a lost puppy that doesn't know where it's going. I'm always afraid someone's gonna come and beat the crap out of them.

I'm sure they do. They do. No, they definitely have before. Was it in Boston? That people kept beating up? It's really weird. I don't understand the need to beat up the robot. I do understand, wait, I take that back.

I understand the need to beat up a robot. I mean, I do understand. Wait, I take that back. I understand the need to beat up a robot. I do understand. Because I remember when we were at, when I was a kid and fucking whenever a mascot would come out into the neighborhood, like it's when you have security at Disneyland, that's one thing. But when you walk into somebody's neighborhood in a fucking Teddy Rock spinin outfit, and don't

expect to get tackled and beat up. Did you beat up a Teddy Rockspin? I was a part of a mob that jumped on a Teddy Rockspin at Walman Rink. And we didn't beat the Teddy Rockspin up. You just took the clothes off the Teddy Rocksman. Like, what are you doing, Teddy? Oh my. You tackled a Teddy Rocksman?

There's a bunch of kids out there, they're all grown now, that know of this story and was there that day when some idiot decided to bring Teddy Rocksman out amongst 12 to 13 year old boys and girls at ice skating rink. Don't you think that person was trying to bring joy to the children?

He brought a lot of joy or she brought a lot of joy. I don't know. All I know is we laughed so hard at the fact that Teddy Ruxpin was a woman and we were like, oh. Well, I have to tell you that Teddy, the robots remind me of a Teddy Ruxpin because I worry that teenagers are gonna do the same thing

and beat up these robots. Well, we didn't beat up this person. We just tackled and took the Teddy Ruxpin off. You just tackled and took the clothing off of the show. No, the Teddy Ruxpin clothing, not all of the clothing, just the Teddy Ruxpin clothing. Got it. Well, there you go. It's very bizarre driving around.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks like this is such a weird future we're living in, where robots are doing all the delivery. And I'm sure drones aren't far behind. There are drones. If you drive through Hollywood right now, you're being tracked by drones if you go over the speed limit. And not Hollywood, Beverly Hills. It says to you, you're being tracked by drones. Well, I had a driver from the airport tell me that in downtown LA, I don't know if he was crazy in making this up, but they've begun doing deliveries from drones.

I've seen videos of that. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's still like very beta testing. Eventually we'll be seeing them flying around like it's like the fifth element where it's just like a whole traffic of drones. That's what the flying car is. The flying car isn't going to be a car like what we know.

It's literally going to be a drone and you sit in a bubble in the middle of the drone. Right. That's already a thing. Yeah. But I think in our, Daniel's right, in our lifetime, at the very least, we're gonna see, we're gonna look up and see like drone traffic delivering shit, for sure. We might even see flying cars in our lifetime,

if we're lucky. In the next 30 years, I believe, we're close enough. Wow. 30 years. 30 years to course on. I'm ready. Well, there's already a commercial thing you can buy that's a flying one-horse and drone. Yeah.

Yeah. The regulations for that stuff are going to be real rough. I know, but wouldn't you have thought the regulations for self-driving cars would be crazy? Wouldn't you have thought that robots going down the street would be crazy? It's all happening. People are getting it all through. I agree.

I just think that there's three-dimensional space is a little bit different than like... I know cars exist in a three dimensional space, but they move in a two dimensional plane, which is a little bit easier to control versus planes in the sky where it's like height regulations, space regulations. Well, who's to say that the airline business will be here in 30 years? We're pushing towards electricity and all of that stuff right now. And one of the biggest pollutions in the sky right now, or period, are airline companies and stuff like that. So who's to say that in the future

that's not the next thing to go? What if that's the next revolution? Well, I think it'll be electric. It will be electric one day, but there's still gonna be airline traffic. Right, but even with airline, I'm just saying even with airline traffic, it's still, there'll be levels to it.

You know what I mean? I don't think anybody's trying to fly a drone 30,000 feet in the air. Correct. You know what I mean? Like, you know, I think the, I definitely agree with you. There will be no flying around the airport. You'll have to land that thing, all of that shit.

You're right, Daniel. And then they're gonna also have to put some type of chip in the shit to make sure that you can't just go rogue and, oh my God, just so many things to... It won't be free. What's the shit that we do when we play video games? There's free world. It won't be free world. That should be straight up track. Also, imagine that you get in a self-driving car and you have a known warrant for your arrest. Where do you think that car is gonna drive you?

Right to? Face recognition and just pose. That's good. That's a good sci-fi movie. By the way, I wanna highly recommend the show Ripley on Netflix. Is it about Ripley from Aliens? No.

No, it's from the novel, The Talented Mr. Ripley, and everyone remembers the famous Matt Damon, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow movie, but that's just a two-hour tale from this epic novel, and it was just retold with Andrew Scott, who's a phenomenal actor. Those of you who don't recognize his name, he was the hot priest on Fleabag. Yeah, he was. And priest on Fleabag.

Yeah, he was. And he's such a good actor. And so they were able to tell an eight hour version of the story on Netflix. And it's so beautifully shot and wonderfully acted. I highly, highly recommend it. I didn't want it to be over. Does it go even more in depth?

Yeah, it's a whole lot more story than the movie. And honestly, I think it might be one of the best examples of cinematography I've ever seen on television. Really? It's black and white, every single frame, it all takes place in like 1950s Italy, and every single frame. That's a big thing coming from you, bro.

Best cinematography in television history. Definitely, I think in the top of five television shows I've ever seen in terms of cinematography. Wow. Every frame, when you watch it, audience and you three, you'll be aware that just of the framing and the lighting, every frame is more beautiful than the last. It's stunning.

And the fact that they executed it in Italy, you know, in 2023 or whatever, they magically really make you believe that you're in the 50s in Italy. And the acting is so good. Well, there you go. There's my recommendation of the week. I'm watching that.

I have no recommendations. Has your Star Wars thing started? No. When does that start? Which one? Acolyte. Acolyte. I'm not really excited about Acolyte.

I don't know much about it. To be honest with you. Really? You went from such excitement before. I liked the trailer, it was good. But then after you watch it, after a while it's like, what's this show gonna be? June 4th, we'll find out.

No, we'll find out June 4th. And then right after that, there's another Star Wars show coming on. And then we have Tales of the Empire coming. There are a bunch of Star Wars things coming that I am excited about, but. Are you watching Shogun? I gotta watch that.

I think I might have to, I need to watch something because right now my fucking, like I feel like I'm just on in a Groundhog day and everything I watch is, it's the same. I'm a fantasy guy and I guess the fantasy is told the same way fucking every time. It seems like, dude, like what about troops? For sure. Yeah, it's definitely got strong.

What is it? Three body problems. Body problem. OK, good. I was going to suggest that, too. That's sci-fi, right? A bit sci-fi. Definitely. Bill. Bill Lawrence, our friend, Bill Lawrence said that he watched the pilot and really liked that. It's something because whole seasons on Netflix.

Watch that. OK, I watched all of Invincible. That was fire. OK, you know what I mean? But I watched that in like one day. You know what I mean? Like it's too short. And then they tried to act like, well, it's animation.

Come on, motherfucker. That's 2D animation on computer. Y'all could have got that shit out a lot quicker than you're pretending to be. You know what I mean? Six episodes, seven, however many episodes of a fucking comic book that's been out for decades or over a decade, get the fuck out of here, man. Thank you.

All right, shall we get into the TV show Scrubs? What is this? I think it's the penultimate episode of JD on season nine. Yes. It is episode five of season nine. Count us in, Donald Faison. Five, six, seven, eight. We'll tell stories about sure we made.

About a bunch of dogs and nurses and a Canada who loved them. Okay, Donald, tell us about your feelings of this episode. You have been very... I've been the most critical out of all of us, obviously. You've been the most critical, and I want to give the audience a balanced view. I want them to not feel... There's no way there's going to be a balanced view because I feel like all of you are going to be on the same page as me. Yeah, this episode was not good.

Let's be blunt. Okay, thank you. But I wanna give the audience, I don't wanna. Okay. I try audience to watch each one with new eyes and go, no judgment, it's a clean slate, let's take this in. I'm not going in with negativity. And this was just not funny.

It is a half hour comedy, remember? It was boring as can be too. It was like, listen, you and I are on the highest level of fucking acting right now. Right, too much. In this shit, we're going way too overboard, bro. What show are we on?

What are we doing? What are we doing? Do you remember when I make fun of your acting in that commercial as a child? The Folgers Coffee commercial? Yeah, the Folgers commercial. When you go, you have been away a long time. We are doing that.

We are that. We are acting like you as a nine-year-old. How old were you when you did that? Yeah, I was probably 11. Yeah, we're acting like 11 year olds who got their first job. Yes. You have been a while.

I mean, wait, hold on, I take that back. It's polished, it's good, it's not like we're bad actors, but we're just overdoing it. We're like so far over. I think my acting is bad. I've said this before. I don't think your acting is bad at I've said this before. I don't think you're acting as bad at all. Donald, you're a nice person.

I think you have gone the way of, you're now just a complete laugh whore and we're trying so hard for the laugh that we're crashing. I think Donald, it's, I, as the British say, have lost the plot. I am just so cartoonishly large. Yes.

And you're right, I guess I'll laugh for, but not even like any basis in reality. No, there's nothing grounded about our performance. No. Like when I'm watching this, I'm like, holy shit, dude. You're like, if you were to compare the first episode of Scrubs to this, I'm like, holy shit, dude. You're like, if you were to compare the first episode of Scrubs to this. Yeah.

So I wanna take responsibility to the audience because I've always shit talked season nine, but I'm a contributor to the problem. I am such a contributor to the problem in this situation, dude. I am such a contributor to the problem. I wanna take responsibility and apologize to the audience for my contributions to this being a really broad,

not based in reality form of acting. And then, so there's that. And then my favorite part of the show now is fucking Drew and Denise. That's the better part of the show. You know what they're doing, what it felt like to me, is like when we, remember when we were watching it in the beginning and a lot of the story was Jordan and Cox,

they're like the same couple. They're like that couple all of a sudden. It's like they make fun of each other, they shit on each other, one's trying to up the other, but they're in love with each other. Like you could follow these two. I know, but everyone- It would be the same storyline.

Everyone has a person that's their new incarnation. Like, you know, Carrie Bichet is the new JD. Right. Cole, I guess he's the new Todd-ish. They're the new Jordan and Cox. And then now Cox is like the new Kelso. Like, what the fuck? He's sitting here causing,

he's causing all of this trouble. What is your problem, bro? What's your problem? He's a dick. Right, what is your problem? He was always like a jerk because it was tough love and he wanted them to be good doctors. And I guess this plot tries to pull that as well,

but it really felt like several times I was like, what a dick. Yeah, yeah. Like there's nothing redeemable about him. No, and even at the end when he's like, I'm trying, I'm gonna, like, yeah, he tried, when he gives her the IV, we're gonna jump ahead guys, sorry, and then we'll go back. When he lets himself be the buddy for the IV at the end,

I don't give a shit. The conversation with JD doesn't land the way it should because you're like, why are you still trying to teach lessons to this fucking, to the teacher in front of the students? If anything, you made this dude's whole lessons, all of his lessons not have any credibility because you clowned him in front of the whole class

right before he leaves. And also JD's leaving again? Like, didn't he just leave? Why is he leaving again? I mean, I know I'm leaving because my contract's up as an actor, but why, I even lost track of story. Why is JD leaving again? I couldn't tell you.

I think he gets another offer, a difference. I missed whatever exposition was why JD's leaving yet again. It all of a sudden was like- How long did he work at the hospital with Sam? Where Sam, where he's closer to Sam? I don't know, but I know that I only did six episodes and in this episode I was carrying a box and you're like, come on, one more eagle.

And I'm like, what the fuck? Didn't we just do this four episodes ago, five episodes ago? Anywhere, it is what it is. JD's last day, guys, JD had to watch a four hour video called boundaries because he touched a person in the chest, in their heart, a woman.

He meant to reference something in their heart and he touched her heart and then was forced to take a course. So now when he speaks to Lucy, he references her stomach and she says, why are you pointing to my stomach? And he said, because I had to watch a four hour video on boundaries. Yeah. I actually did like this part where Cox is talking to the students and he's, you know,

saying how all of them are probably gonna pass this test. This is an easy test, but there's, sometimes there's that one person, that one student that can't do it. And it's a gift for him because he gets to send somebody home at a very, very early stage in their career. You wanna be a doctor and you can't draw blood? This ain't for you, kid. You know what I mean? And it's rare. But it has, right. You want, you got dreams, you want fame, but it's rare it happens. It's rare that it happens and it happens.

And when it does happen to happen for him, it's like Christmas. I did like that analogy because don't waste my time, right? That's pretty much what he's saying. All of y'all here, if you can't pass this test, you are wasting my fucking time and you don't deserve to be doctors. I'm surprised to learn that a med student this far along in where they are wouldn't be able to draw blood, but maybe-

Some of these motherfuckers skate, dude. I'm sure, I suppose, yeah. I just would have thought that, again, I guess I don't really fully get how far along these kids are, but I guess maybe, obviously, they're at the point where it's time to draw blood for the first time. I don't know.

I was just surprised that Lucy didn't know how to draw blood. And why are they drawing blood through a needle and pulling it? Don't you put the stent, the thing in it and you put the tube and all that? That's what they were doing. They had that little butterfly needle and then they were putting just the test tube on it. Oh, it looked like she was pulling it with the...

No, I think we would have gotten that right for sure. Scrubs did pride itself on being accurate. I don't know, man. This is med school. Okay. So Cox is just on being active. I don't know, man. This is, this is med school. Okay. So Cox is just on a tear. He's really just, I mean, screaming at these kids, trying to scare the fuck out of them and tells them they all need to draw blood or they're going to be kicked out of med school.

JD's slide presentation to Time of My Life was pretty funny, especially when you pulled back to reveal me in the exact position as the ending slide. I remember this episode, us dressing up as the Hardy Boys. This is not so far enough away that I don't remember it. You know what I mean? This is like, I do remember me putting on the hair piece for the Hardy Boys and that's what we're seeing in everything. That was funny.

Yeah. That Hardy Boys thing is pretty funny when I go, dad's gonna be so proud of us black adopted brother. I don't know anything about the Hardy Boys, but I, do you guys know anything about the Hardy Boys? Yeah, you boy detectives sometimes hung out with Nancy Drew, classic stories, somewhat like Scooby Doo, a little less silly. They're classic tales.

So they were boys that solved mysteries. Did you ever read the book about the girl with the photographic memory? It was a series of novels, little teenage books, and she would go click, and when she would say, who the fuck was the name of that shit? And when she would go click, and she would say that shit, and that's how she would remember shit.

Like if she, and she was a detective, right? And so she'd be out and about. And if she thought something was just a little odd, she'd go click and then she could remember everything that was happening. Yeah. What the fuck was that? I wonder why they haven't remade that

into a TV show or a movie. Cam Jansen. Oh my God. What's it called? Cam a movie. Cam Jansen, oh my God. Yeah, what's it called? Cam Jansen. Cam Jansen. The Cam Jansen series, wow. Calling back to me.

She had a photographic memory? Yeah, that was her superpower. That's amazing. That's probably the best superpower. And for people who can't fly and can't turn invisible and all of that shit, okay, I'm gonna jump off on another tangent. There's two things I learned during spring break

and while looking at the computer. One, if we train our bodies at a certain point, we can reach super power. I'm not saying we can fly and stuff like that, but to leap far and to be extra strong, you'd be surprised how far the human body can go. That's the first thing. But an actual superpower to me is a photographic memory.

If you can remember anything and everything, and there are people out there who can do that, if you can say, I want to remember this, how can you ever, like you could be a doctor, you could be a lawyer, well, case study, you could be anything that has to do with some type of reference or history, a detective, anything that has to do with that, you'd be the best at it. Like if you had if you had that power, and that's too. I wish I had that. That's the one thing I wish I had. I wish I had a photographic memory. Yeah, I saw a movie where a guy referenced it,

and if he read something once, he could recite it. He just, that is, I guess that is a real thing for some people. They have whole competitions. Really? Yeah, like memorization contests, and they have these really funky ways of like, remembering very, very, very long passages of text, or they'll give them

really convoluted directions and they have to navigate a map from memory. How long do they have to do the memorization? Depends on the competition. I saw, oh man, it was a New York Times piece or something. They did a video essay where they gave the girl seven and a half minutes to read like 50 pages. And she was like doing the speed read thing, but then she was also like creating a memory map in her head of what she was reading. So that when they would ask her to recall specific details, she could do it. And like the blink of an eye, it was crazy. I don't know. Like there's, there's a way you can teach yourself. She was like, you don't have to be a genius to learn memorization.

There's another one of these things. Have you guys seen, have we talked about this where you can remember exactly what happened on any day of your life? Yeah, that's awesome. That would be awesome. No, this woman, I saw a special on this. It is a specific brain skill. And there was a famous actress.

What's the name of the actress who was the female lead on Taxi? Mary Lou, no. Yeah, you're close. Will you guys look that up? She had a- Mary Lou Hennor? She was in the special.

No, Mary Lou Renton, I think is the gymnast. Mary Lou Hennor. Mary Lou Hennor, is that correct? Maryl Hennor. Maryl Hennor, yeah. Maryl Hennor? Maryl Hennor. Yeah, M-A-R-I-L? Yeah. Mary Lou Henner? Mary Lou Henner. Yeah, oh, no, no, no.

M-A-R-I-L-U. Mary Lou Henner has this. And if you guys are more, Google or YouTube the video about Mary Lou Henner and being able to remember any dates, because they had this special on these people and they were like, and including celebrity Mary Lou Henner, who's also one of these people.

And they would just, the interviewer would name a date, any date in their life, and they would tell you exactly what happened that day, what the day was like, what the weather was like. They just, their brain has a thing where that just locks into a storage drive as easy as you reading it. Highly superior autobiographical memory or H-SAM,

a rare condition that Mary Lou Henner has has that's H Sam. Well, so look it's a it's a it's a well, I guess if not everybody has it it's considered a what's the word I'm looking for not a Party truck it's considered a part. No, well, that's That's what it could be used for but isn't it like a debilitation if you have some shit like that? They describe it as a condition. So it doesn't inhibit her from doing anything, you know, in her life. It just gives her like all of these other abilities.

But if you get a chance, watch the video of her being interviewed. She was with like, I don't know, five other people that weren't celebrities. She just happens to be a famous actress who has it. And they were just going around the room and be like, 1982, January 3rd. She goes, I remember it was very cold and I was wearing red sweatpants and I had just gone to the theater. And then we went to, I mean, it's just so trippy.

Wow. So she should be able to pull from some horrific days and everything like that. Yeah, if you pick a bad one. That's fucking horrible, man. I don't think that like she's sitting there living them all at the same time. She's, if you call one up, I mean, it's just,

it's just how, how, how often, just how impressive and amazing is an infinite are our brains. If you could remember any day, vividly, vividly, what would it be? Like there's people, there's people that are probably like, I remember when I was born, I came out the womb, it was light. I wonder if that falls into her category,

if she can remember like, I remember there was bright light and it was coming from sort of an envelope sized space. It stretched and stretched. And the light got bigger and bigger. The next thing I knew I was being slapped on the ass by some white man. Some white man was hitting me hard on my back. And then there was a titty in my face.

And it was good. And that milk was delicious and warm. Sorry, we'll go to break? Sorry. We'll go to break. We'll be right back after these. Fine. Whatcha tryna get into? What day of shroom?

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. 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 men because she is on the prowl.

Protection exchanged for cash and flesh. This is Hooker Game, criminals and libertines in the South. And I am your host, Dr. Lindsay Byron. Three years ago, I came across a gold mine of news clippings detailing a scandal that rocked my small southern hometown. As I flipped through each page, this forgotten story

came back to life. I was told that it was just supposed to be a massage parlor. The big shot in Dan Wolf's blocker. He beats me continuously. If you print anything that you hear in the grand jury, you will be put in jail. I never gave any massages.

Okay, so JD, he does this whole PowerPoint demonstration. He's trying to get points for the teacher evaluations. He says, powerful stuff, huh? And then he tried to do a balloon drop and that didn't work. And then he did two hours off Froyo. And if you tell him Dr. D sent you, you get a extra whip. Like they went all out. They went all out to try and make JD fucking Urkel.

Like they went all out. Like everything is like straight up. Yeah. Think about it. Dr. D. He's just like straight up this character now. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, man. Like, like, or, or screech or, and I'm building like that's the fucking crazy shit it's like holy cow are you not a teacher how come you're not being evaluated i'm a surgeon i'm a surgeon dude surgeons don't i mean i don't know what the fuck i am i'm just there i wouldn't say that i'm the black best friend there's like no reason i don't know why they never to be there at all they never explain they never there's no reason for any of us to be there. Well, they never explain what you're doing there.

Like you don't seem to teach. I am a teacher. In episode one of season nine, you do visit Turk's extremely small classroom as compared to the giant lecture hall, but we haven't been back to a classroom of Turk since. They weren't really tracking Turk as teacher because we're talking about the teacher valuations. I am John Boyega in episode eight of Star Wars.

What does that mean? I see. In the last Jedi when they, instead of making him the lead Jedi, they made him the goofy best friend. I thought he was the stormtrooper who saves the day. In the first movie. In the first movie in the first I didn't watch the second one Sorry, the second movie. They just abandoned that completely fuck that shit. Do you know what you're gonna do? You're gonna dance

Did he dance? No, but he kind of dances He does stumble out half naked in like a sprouting watersuit gag That's this introduction back into the movie. Into the movie. Sorry, these are references I don't know. It's fair. All right, so what about Cox flicking the dead corpse? That was so weird to me. Didn't you guys feel like that was out? I mean, I know Cox is,

Cox doesn't have disrespect for corpses, does he? No, I was gonna say the main thing with Cox is so weird. It's like his anger in the original Scrubb series is always at the institution for not treating people with the level of respect he thinks they deserve. It's always at a larger institution, but here, man, is that anybody who can take a shot? Like the core students doesn't matter.

Anybody in his path. I agree with you, Joel. It was about the institution, though, back in the day. It was about, look, the institution can't fuck you, and yo, respect the institution too. You know what I mean? That was what was redeeming about him. That was what was awesome. It was like, look, it's not only about

how the system treats you, it's how you treat the system also. There's a level of respect going both ways. Now he just seems to be like, you're in my way. Brrrah, you're in my way. Brrrah, he's rata-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta. I love Miguel, rata-ta-ta-ta. And also flicking a corpse's ear, You're in my way. You're in my way. He's ra ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta. And also flicking a corpse's ear like that just seems really out of character,

like disrespecting a cadaver does not seem in line with Dr. Cox. Agreed. JD says that he had one line in his theater camp's production of Oliver, and it was, no, thank you, I don't like soup. So he gets an anonymous negative review, and he totally spirals, and he says, Turk, am I needy? Tell me 100 times. I feel like we've done this episode before.

Well, JD, I don't know if we have. Just in fact, okay, I get that we're on the show and that we're the original cast, but when you watch the opening, it's about the interns and the freaking students and stuff. Why are we the main characters in this shit? Like, I don't- Because the concept was to wean the audience off of us.

But what happens when you leave though? That's the thing. Sarah comes in, like what the fuck? Like we're just, it's, there is no weaning. It's like we're tricking the audience almost. This, we, I'm sorry. I think this show would have done way better if I wasn't on it. Like straight up. Like I'm not going to say you or anybody else that's from the original cast.

It would have been better if I was like a, like this is the one time where I look at this like a reboot would have been better than this shit. Like, you know what I mean? Like this is, I'm angry at Turk and JD right now. It's like, y'all, they've gone so far off the rails and into this new world and stuff that it's not even believable. And it's not even like, even with the ostriches and them forming a century, you know what I mean? Like even with all of that,

that's still kind of felt grounded in some way. You know what I mean? I don't know if the ostriches felt grounded. That's a bad example, but I do think that- No, but I'm saying, I'm using that because that's the most extreme that it got. The ostriches stole your Kango. Yeah, and it came and put it on the same thing.

Put it on the same thing. And then he closed the gate of the garden with his hoof or whatever you call it. And then they started alternating guard duty to keep us in the tree. Yes, and still, and still seems more grounded. And then it kicked us through Jason Bateman's window. Yes, and still seems more grounded

than what we're watching right now. This definitely is a tone change and it's very noticeable. You know, sometimes if you watch a series, I'm not gonna call anyone out because I don't wanna be that guy, but if you watch a series you love and all of a sudden season two, it really feels different. You know, the writers changed often,

a different show runner or a different team. And you might be going, I kind of still like this maybe, but what is different? And you might not be able to put your finger on it. And sometimes it's something as big as it's a different showrunner. And obviously that was the case here. It's for the first time, a totally different showrunner and the tone is different. The showrunner of this show has gone on to do some successful stuff.

I'm not saying that he couldn't be brilliant. I'm sure he's brilliant. I'm just saying that you can't, no two showrunners are gonna be able to mimic the exact same tone. I was a part of a shift like that one time that was, it was like, wow, this isn't even the same. I was on Clueless and Clueless was on ABC.

And when it went from the movie to the television show, Amy Heckerling still was involved and she show ran the first season. At the end of the season, ABC decided they weren't gonna pick it up. And I don't know what happened, but she kind of left as the show runner. And the dude, Tim O'Donnell,

who show ran Growing Pains for a little bit, he came on and started doing the show. And the show shifted from this Beverly Hills show, like that was very similar to the movie, to something that was written for young teens. You know what I mean? Like the movie, when you watch the movie, it's for everyone. It's adults. And when you're a kid, you kind of fantasize,

this is kind of how I want to be. But the movie's really for adults. You know what I mean? The television show was aspired to be that, and ABC was like, we don't like it. And when we moved to UPN, it became something, I know you want to laugh at that. But.

No, I haven't heard the term UPN in so long. Some of our listeners probably don't know what UPN is. They're like, what the fuck is a UPN? But when it moved, it became like a completely different show. These kids were dealing with stuff like Arnold Jackson and sitcom world type things. It became way broader. It became way broader. And all of a sudden it wasn't as, you know,

it wasn't clueless anymore. It was clueless with something else. UPN also didn't have the budget that ABC had, right? So it probably became a lower budget. UPN had a pretty good budget. I mean, I was on at a time when Moesha was on, when, you know what I mean? Like there were a bunch of Buffy the Vampire Slayer,

all of, UPN and the WB were kind of like the, or yeah, the WB, right? That's what it was. Kind of like the same thing. And then they merged. And became the CW. The CW, I think that's the CW. Right.

But were UPN, I don't know why you came up with that. We used to have so many names for that network, man. What did you call it? I don't want to say it because I fucked up on Tellers. I can't say why you feel that. We used to have so many names for that network, man. What did you call it? I don't wanna say it because I don't wanna tell her. I can't say it on the network. Can we, can you say it and we'll beep it? There were a lot of black people on UPN and they called it.

Let's just put it that way. Okay, we'll beep that. Wow, I didn't know that. Wow. I didn't know that, but UPN, I'm sure had a different tone than ABC. Yeah. They were just starting. Remember when Fox first came out and how Fox was the network Fox? Yeah. A lot of y'all are too young to remember that, but I remember it was like, marry with children was early Fox. Yeah. Right. So it was like the programming was so risque, I guess you would, is the terms you would use.

Like we had a show on- For Fox, yeah. They were trying to push the envelope. On UPN also, there was a show on that network where they had a man, it was a show that took place during slavery. And in an opening scene, they had a walk and talk with two people walking and a black man hanging in a tree as they walked by. Oh my God.

Damn, they were starting off tough. Get in there. Wow. Is this on early UPN? Yeah, that show was canceled like right away. I'll never forget that shit. Let's take a break. We'll be right back after these fine words. and so much more. Thank you for taking the light and you're going to shine it all over the world and it makes me really happy.

JD tells Turk that eagles are played out, which is true. I'm not gonna be eagling, I think. Are you fucking on crack, man? Listen, I know the audience loves eagling. I love to eagle when I get to fucking eagle.

You never get to eagle. You're too- I sometimes get to eagle. You never get to eagle, you're too- I sometimes get to eagle. Who eagles you? I got to eagle at like a Comic-Con type situation where I was taking pictures of people. Was it a large man who had big muscles? Very strong.

Because it's hard to lift you. And I was like, I don't wanna get on your back. And he was like, just do it. Poor guy threw his back out. No, he was big and he held me up and I'm- Oh, so you got to do it. Well, listen, I don't know if there's a reboot. Do you clench your knees together when you eagle?

Yes, you have to get a good grip. I should teach a course in how to eagle properly. Yeah, and how to say eagle too. Eagle. Well, now people use it in the wrong way. People like, I would love it if we could do the eagle. Well, I don't know if we should eagle if we do a reboot. It feels-

You're on crack. Are you serious? I don't think we should do it. They want us to eagle in T-Mobile commercials. You don't want to eagle, dude? I just think that eagling is something we- Eagling! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

I just think that eagling is, I don't know, Joelle, do you think if we do a reboot of scrubs that it would be okay for us to forego eagling? No, I don't think it would be okay for you to forego eagling. Get on his back and eagle for us, Zach. What the fuck? All right. They're like, look, they're-

We'll give the people what they want, I guess. That would be the dopest eagle left. That would have been a dope eagle. Us on the back of Jason Momoa. Double eagle, double eagle, eagle, eagle. We'll have to do a bit about it, where we're like, both of our backs hurt and I'm like, hold on, I need a step stool to get on you.

Right. You know? I would love to eagle. I was thinking it'd be so funny. Did I tell you this about my idea for how the reboot would open? Were you flying on an eagle? No, where it's like, you totally do an homage

to the first episode of Scrubs, you know, when JD hits the alarm and then he hops out of bed. And remember, didn't we talk about this? Yeah, we did talk about this. Oh yeah, so my idea was that he, my idea is that he's got like a CPAP on and he's like back hurts as he gets out of bed. And he look over and Elliot's got like a night gear on,

like a, you know, like, cause she's like, you know, snores or something. I mean, I don't know, like, like total contrast. And then, and then he gets to the mirror and instead of like putting shaving cream all over my chest, I'm like so exhausted. I'm like really bored shaving. And it's like, JD's just become like a tired, you know.

Well, I think that would be an actual great moment to use the mirror as what's happened in the last few years also. What's happened in the last, you know what I mean? He goes to the mirror and as he's shaving or whatever it is you can see in his reflection, everything that's happened in the last, you know what I mean? He goes to the mirror and as he's shaving or whatever it is you can see in his reflection, everything that's happened. So the audience catches up and now we understand

why we're back at a hospital with everybody again. Right. That's when you gonna get out of here. You could do that or you could also have the original JD from the pilot in the mirror and he's like looking at his young self being like, what's become of me. Right, there's that too. He's no joy left in his life.

How come everybody gets cynical as they get older? How come everybody, how come, why does wisdom seem to freaking promote cynicism like, or you know what I mean? Like, why is that? Why the more knowledge I get, the more pessimism I feel towards the world and stuff. Like, why is that? Why the more knowledge I get, the more pessimism I feel towards the world and stuff. Like, why is that?

Because you've experienced the negative stuff. Yeah, I think you've experienced, when you're a child, you're just so wide-eyed and you don't know what you don't know. And then as you grow and you experience heartache and loss and grief and financial strain and worry about providing for your family and all of these things it's sort of like mud accumulating on a windshield

and by the time you're 49 years old it's hard to see through that windshield and so there's things we can all do to clean off that windshield but I think that's what came up for me when you said that is like, you're operating with all of this mud on your windshield. That's a great way to put it. But it feels like that. We see it in a television show. You just described it in the opening

of the new series, Scrubs. You know what I mean? It just seems like that's always what happens. I was thinking like, aubs, you know what I mean? It just seems like that's always what happens. I was thinking like, you know, a young, joyful 20 something who has his first day as an intern. He just has so much excitement ahead of him. He doesn't, he can't believe he got here, he doesn't know. And then after 25 years of dealing with the stress

and insurance companies and death and loss and the trouble in his marriage. And, you know, I'm just making shit up, but you know, it's a different point of view. It's someone who's weathered a lot of storms. It's an interesting show, especially because we know the characters already. I think that's what would make a reboot better,

to be honest. That's what would interest me, would be, and I'm not, this isn't, I haven't said this to Bill, although I will, but to me what makes it interesting is like exactly what you just said, Don, was like, it's still a comedy, of course, but it's coming from someone who's lived a lot of life and seen and had a lot of ups and downs, and he's no longer that wide-eyed kid who can't believe he's got this experience. He's someone who's someone who maybe has lost some joy in his life and maybe through coming back together with the community

of the people that he loved so much and reminds him of the joy in his life. Maybe that's what the premise of the show could be is in reuniting with these seven people or so that he remembered such joy with, some of that joy comes back into his life and cleans off his proverbial windscreen. It's just like I said in the beginning of the show,

it's always Star Wars, baby. It always goes back to fantasy. At the end of the day- How did you get Star Wars out of that? Because Yoda at the end of, he goes off because of his experience and all of the stuff. He exiles himself. Luke Skywalker exiles himself.

All of these people exile himself. And it's just something that's one thing that brings them back and it's something from their past, whether it be Luke Skywalker, whether it be Rey with the message that Princess Leia needs him. It always brings the hero, the dude who we started, the hero's journey with back into purpose. And I feel like, you know, that's a great idea. I think that's, no matter, it always works,

but I think that's a great way to bring JD back into this whole situation. You know what I mean? You know what it's also mirroring is Dr. Cox's journey the first time. The first time around. Mm hmm. If you have this guy who's so beat up by life of his crazy parents, his relationship fell apart, he's unhappy with the institution he's in. And then this kid comes into his life and sort of re-sparks and reimagines all of this like beauty he has for his job so that at the very end of season 8 anyway we get to see into this future where he's part of this kid's family and they spend holidays together and stuff.

That's another story right there. What the fuck was Dr. Cox like as an intern when he was a student? What the fuck was Dr. Cox like as an intern when he was a student? What's that story? Who would play Johnny? Who would play Kelso? Who would play Jordan? These are stories that are all there, ready for the freaking taking, if Scrubs comes back and tries to do that Yellowstone shit. Or that, you know, we could go Yellowstone. We're not going to do like young Kelso. I mean, we're gonna, you know, if we do it, we're gonna do like. Young Kelso sounds funny though. Young Sheldon, Young Kelso.

All right, all right. But I don't think you and I are in Young Kelso. No, but I can be an executive producer on it. Let's take a break. We're gonna take a break and we come back. We are gonna finish talking about the television show, Scrubs. Scrubs. Scrubs.

I did all right. All right. Sunny is back. And is this Sunny's first appearance in season nine? Yes, I think. Okay. So Sunny's first appearance in season nine? Yes, I think. Okay, so Sunny's back and she wants to go on a date

with her boyfriend and there's this whole power play between Denise and Drew. Cox puts in her head that, you know, a relationship is, she's being dominated by Drew and that Drew is winning and he's controlling the relationship. Okay. And then we learned that Barry Friedman,

when we do our hunting, is the person who perhaps- Gave you the bad review. Gave us the bad review. Because the Rs kind of look alike. When we- And Turk loves the magnifying glass. That he made JD by. And because of the Hardy Boys. They knock on Barry's door and this is sort of a copy

of the first episode I directed when we're looking for Heather Graham, because we knock on a mysterious door and Kelso answers. Yeah, he's taken over Barry's room. because we knock on a mysterious door and Kelso answers. Yeah, he's taken over Barry's room. Barry was, we find out that Barry hasn't been in school since the first couple of weeks and he washed out and Kelso took his room and has been using it as his sex pad because he can't,

because having sex in the same bed that he had sex with Enid in gives him the softies. Right. And he says, come on in, you're letting all the funk out. Meaning he's smoking that shit. He got that gas. Oh really? He got that gas. Does that mean that he was smoking ganja

or does it mean that he- It ain't the sex funk, it's the ganja. Oh, I thought it meant like the smell of Nobody Where the person that where the fuck where the where the where the where the where the she may have just left 30 seconds Before they knocked we don't know Sure, I took it as this motherfucker smoking weed. He's not a doctor anymore. He smokes weed He freaking teaches classes. he's living the best life.

Okay, well he's getting high in the dorm room and there it is. Yeah, he says, I'm working a case right now and I am this close to cracking it open. Right, this is when, so, so. That was funny. JD's like so into being a detective all of a sudden. Yeah, right. I would help you right now.

I had a moment, dude, where I was like kind of stoked about watching you and I being detectives. I guess that's what psych is, right? Yeah. It's us as detectives pretty much. It's us as detectives? Yeah. But it stars two different people. I know, but is it-

And they're not named Turk and JD. I've never watched Psych. Is there a, what is Psych about? I've never watched it in my life. Joelle, what about Psych? Good Friends is on it and I've never watched it. Psych, fabulous show. That's what we should re-watch is Psych.

We should do a Psych re-watch. Everybody says to every, all the time, you and Zach should have guest starred on Psych. I'm like, get the fuck out of here. You guys would have been fabulous guest stars. Here's the thing, it's a white guy and a black guy, they're best friends. They should have guest starred on Scrubs, y'all could eat a dick.

Go to one. I think they're showing a lot of off that's for the tail end of Scrubs. Not you and Perseid Joelle. I think Sarah was in the Psych movie. Not you and Perseid Joelle. I'm not talking to you directly. Sorry. Sarah is such a hoe for being other TV people.

How I Met Your Mother, Psych. Yeah, what else? She's always fucking somebody, some other Jewish looking TV characters girlfriend, and I'm pissed off about it. Don't be mad. All right, Joelle, what is Psych about in a nutshell, please? Okay, there's a black friend and a white friend. The white friend is a great detective. He's fabulous, but his dad's a detective and he doesn't like his dad, so he doesn't want to

follow in his shoes. So instead, he pretends to be a psychic detective. So to help solve crimes without becoming a part of the police unit, His father is a part of his best friend tags along to try to be the grounding element when he goes off and it's crazy. And they have all kinds of crazy hijinks and adventures. And it's amazing if you like people with photographic memories. He has one frequently. He'll be like, oh, yeah, I'll do the detective TV thing where he touches his forehead. He's like, I remember.

And then you got black and white flashback of the thing you saw. So that's the scrubs flashback. He's like, I remember. And then you got a black and white flashback of the thing you saw too as a guest. That's the Scrubs flashback. It's so good, guys. It's super funny and delightful. There are so many episodes. It's like trying to do a Reel After the Lost. You're like, there are just simply too many episodes,

but they're mostly great. And they keep doing movies. They've done like three movies. Because it's so good. It's a world you want to be in. This thing actually was actually like, like I get this a lot. Whenever I take pictures with Dulé or whenever in Dulé,

like I've known Dulé since we were kids and that's my connection, but everybody's connection to me and Dulé is pretty much, we pretty much played the same character, but in two different worlds. You know what I mean? Really? Mm-hmm. All right, let's keep going.

Let's see, Lucy gives JD puppy dog eyes. And he falls for it. He falls for it. Perry wrote the bad review we learned, and just as it, by the way, then the balloons drop. This had a second commercial break. Did you guys notice that? That isn't the norm for Scruff.

I thought there was a weird setup with it, that's strange. It had a weird second commercial break. How do you feel about commercials guys, to be honest? Would you prefer commercials not existed or would you prefer that you got to have? I wouldn't wanna watch a commercial break, I'd rather pay for a streaming service without commercials. I don't mind commercials. It depends on the mood I'm in.

Sometimes I'm not trying to think, and a commercial just extends to the amount of time I don't have to be thinking. But if I'm into a show, like, oh, man, we had a friend's place watching Shogun, and they didn't have no commercial Hulu, so here we are. Well, I know!

You're going to be back into my story. It's a problem. Was it a commercial break at the time where you need where it was like a dun-dun? Like, I like a perfect setup for a problem. Was it a commercial break at the time where you need where it was like a dun dun, like I like a perfect set up. They were programmed commercial breaks. Right, I think that's kind of cool. There's something cool about that.

All right, Donald likes commercials everybody. All right, so Cox confronts JD. These fucking kids need tough love. You know, gives him a whole lesson. He's back to giving JD lessons, this time about being a teacher. Denise decides not to steal from Drew, so that means that she's in a relationship.

That was a cute scene. Yeah, I guess I will. And the cutest part of the show right now, if you ask me. Truly adorable. And as I always say, each episode of this podcast, Michael Mosley is the most grounded person in the show. Mm-hmm. JD doesn't show up for Lucy on purpose, each episode of this podcast. Michael Mosley is the most grounded person in the show.

JD doesn't show up for Lucy on purpose because Cox got to his head. And there's a fantasy where she imagines roller skating with JD and he's dressed as a needle. And I guess this has been, Scrubs Wiki said that needle has been in an episode of Scrubs before, the needle costume. I don't remember Um, and then then they decide they're gonna do a big fucking Massive super eagle and they tell all the kids that the cast of twilight is in the quad

Do you remember that day? Yeah, I do remember that day. Do you remember who was watching us from the balcony that day? Tim Burton, yeah Yeah, shut up. What was watching guys do super eagles in the parking lot? watching us from the balcony that day. Tim Burton. Yeah. Yeah. Shut up. What? I was watching guys do Super Eagles in the parking lot. I think he was cutting. Do you remember what movie he was cutting?

Was it maybe Alice in Wonderland? Would that line up? 2010, the Nia Elsona comes out, 2011, I think. Wow, Joelle. You might have that photographic memory thing that the mayor of the head has. I was working in a movie theater in 2011, so I remember a lot of movies that came out of it.

Tim Burton was working on the same lot, cutting a movie, I think was Alice in Wonderland, and we were all doing that Super Eagle, and I think we all looked up, and Tim Burton was watching a Super Eagle. Yeah. Oh yeah, came out 2010. And then Kelso sells Cole Viagra as the tag.

That's a good drug dealer right there. I don't know why coal needs Viagra, but he's curious about having some and he scores some from Kelso. We have the airport bar and troll for women together. What a nightmare. Oh my gosh. And that's our episode.

Wait, hold up. I got to talk about airport bars. I was just recently in an airport bar. I was's how I was. Wait, hold up. I got to talk about airport bars. I was just recently in an airport bar. I was traveling. Go ahead. And I asked, are there regulars? And I don't mean people that fly in and out. I mean, people that just come to the bar at the airport.

Yeah, but how do you get past security if you're going to an airport? You mean before security? Yeah, yes. And they were like, yeah, that actually is a thing. There are quite a few people that frequent the Burbank airport and drink, like, cheers, and then go home. That's really sad.

That's so sad. Not the Burbank airport. No. I don't know why I feel sad for them, but I do. When I heard that, I was like, holy shit. The drinks aren't that good. What did you drink? What were you drinking at the Burbank Airport?

I was having a Bloody Mary at the time. And I was like, this ain't the best, I wouldn't travel. You wouldn't travel to Burbank for that Bloody Mary. I wouldn't travel from the Burbank. Okay. For the drinks that they were serving at the Burbank airport. All right, on that note, Joelle,

do you have any people that wanna weigh in on Scrubs season nine, episode five? We have two voicemails. One is a review. You can play that one first, Danel. That will be awesome. The second one, we'll let that be a surprise. I hope it's Tamika.

Hi, Joel, Danel, Zach, and Donald. My name is Katie. I'm calling in from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I'm watching Scrubb Season 9 for the first time ever. I really could never bring myself to watch it when it originally aired and I've always skipped it in my rewatches. My biggest issue, and I'll discuss this specifically in regards to season 9 episode 5, is that we seem to have lost all traces of this being one of the most medically accurate shows on

television. Who am I to have an opinion on medical accuracy? I know that's what you're thinking and that's a great question. My husband completed medical school residency in anesthesiology and is currently doing a fellowship in regional anesthesia and acute pain medicine. I've been by his side every step of the way and anyone who's been on this journey knows that the spouse goes through it just as much as the doctor. As a side note, my husband was an intern at the start of COVID when your podcast started. It was a lot for us to take on and your podcast was a huge support for me during that time. My oldest child was actually born on Joelle's birthday, October 1st in 2020.

Anyways, I digress. To set the stage for season nine, episode five, according to JD at the top of the episode, we're now six weeks into medical school. Under no circumstances would a student who we're now six weeks into medical school. Under no circumstances, would a student who has completed only six weeks of medical school be doing any type of procedure on live patients? Drew and the crash cart in episode three, this really pushed me over the edge. And I knew that I had to send in and review for you. Medical students are not interns. They would not be drawing blood. This is a skill learned much later. Drew wouldn't be walking around the hospital grabbing medical files

off the counter to go see a patient. That really bothered me when he did that as he was talking to Joe, Denise, and it seems to just have lost the authenticity that the original eight seasons had. Amen. Besides that, JD is just still so needy. At the end of season eight, we see a beautiful montage of JD, Elliot, Dr. Cox and Jordan, Turk and Carla. Their relationship has grown

and they've become more like a family than just coworkers. Season nine seems to disregard that entirely. All of the character growth for JD over the eight years totally crumbles as he reverts to striving for everyone's approval all the time. Searching for the author of his negative evaluation is just so unethical. It's just not the spot we left him at the end of season eight. I was also disappointed in the joke he made about the deaf student in his class. This was just insensitive and not funny.

The Hardy Boys book covers did make me laugh and I liked the old school shenanigans between JD and Turk. I just can't appreciate it as much within the context of this greater character degradation. We've left the world of realism and turned the whole foundation of the show into a farce. Thank you for letting me speak my piece. I love your show and hope you all have a great day. We've left the world of realism for a farce.

I mean, she said it better than we've been trying to say it. I've been trying, I've been stuttering and stuttering and stammering and stumbling trying to say exactly that. Yeah. Well, she did a very good job and you're right, Katie, right? Katie, everything you said is accurate. And yeah, we agree. We agree.

There's gotta be somebody out there that's like, all of you are fucking wrong. This is the best television I've ever seen in my life. And all of you deserved Emmys and fucking, there's gotta be somebody. I'm inferring that Joelle is having trouble finding those people. There's not as many of them. We will have some more positive reviews coming up in the near future.

I did want to end this episode on a positive note. So why don't we go ahead and play our second voice note really quickly? I hope it's the couple that allow the woman to have sex with the friend. Yeah, me too. Please be back. Please come back. I have a feeling it's not. Okay. Suppressed in the darkness within A twenty dollar copay's all it takes But that might be your last mistake Cause he's in your HMO But his butt's hot as oh no! Dr. Aguila He's Dr. Aguila As a matter of fact, you love him He's really Dracula That's fire.

That's what our good friend Travis, he heard us shout him out on the pod and he was like, I have this one that's been in the chamber for a while. I wanted to share it with you guys. And I was like, this really lifted my spirits today. That's amazing. Daniel, I need that for the sound. I need that for my soundboard. I'll send it over.

I'll send it over. I just need the hook. Dr. Acula. And then with the horns. He's Dr. Acula. I'll cut it out for you. I don't think I can. Thank you, Travis.

Travis, we really appreciate that. Wow. That was great. I was a bop. Much appreciated, T-Fresh. I love a nice bop. I, that was great. I was a bop. Much appreciated, T-Fresh. I love a nice bop. I do too. We love a bop.

Have you guys been listening to Beyoncé's country album? It's amazing. I'm going to tell you something right now. Zach, I'm going to tell you something right now. Everybody calm down. Zach, I can't, I cannot calm down. And listen, this. Oh, my Joe.

Oh, right. Oh, God. I listen to it every the first thing I do in the morning, as I say, and hit play on America, let's go. I listen to it no less than three times a day every day since it came out. I am. Wow. Absolutely obsessed. I'm almost off book. I almost memorized that we're getting into harmonies. Getting into harmonies. We're getting into harmonies.

Wow. The song she does with Miley Cyrus, Two Most Wanted. Two Most Wanted is fire. That one, Bodyguard. She sings with Miley Cyrus? Yeah. Yeah.

They harmonized. Zach, has it not hurt you? He hasn't listened. He hasn't listened. And Donald will love this song. He doesn't know what the fuck he's. It's a Thelma and Louise of song, cause each song is based off of a movie.

This is definitely the Thelma and Louise track. Bodyguard is fire, bodyguard, fire. Rafael Sadeq produced the hell out of bodyguard. Oh my God. Freaking projector, fire, projector. Protector made me cry. Send it to my mom immediately. I was like, this is how you love me.

I cried like a baby. And I love you for loving me like this. I cried like a baby. It love you for loving me like this. I cried like a baby. It's so beautiful. It's rare. It's so good. It's rare. It's so good. The spaghetti when she brings out the rap, I said, you have to do this to us.

She sings opera. Zach, she sings opera in the middle of daughters. You know what my favorite song on the whole record is though? Please tell me. Come here, you pretty little thing. You would like Levi's jeans. That shit is fire. And I'd love to turn you on. Come here, you pretty little thing. You would like Levi's jeans. That shit is fire.

Turn you on. Yes. You know I wish I was a Levi's. You get to change the logo to the two eyes. That's perfect. It's divine. Is it doing well? In whole, this woman went out and did her research.

Not only is she coming into country as an artist, but she's coming with the knowledge of everything that's came in the past, all the black knowledge too. And she'd bring in the white knowledge also. She's not turning her back on anybody. She's not turning her back on anybody. I like it. So beautiful.

It's so nice. But it's a country song. That's a fucking country song. Dun dun dun dun dun. The way it's played and everything. On the country Apple iTunes, she's the first black woman to hit number one. And no, I'm sorry, the first person in America

with a country album to hit number one on the UK charts is doing very good. Yeah, I'm like here. She's the first black artist to ever have a number one record on the country charts. That's correct. And was is the country community embracing? They say it makes bag. It's a mixed bag. I think there's definitely a segment of the country community

who was like, this isn't country and I don't want it. They were overturned pretty quickly as just far as people like calling into country radios and requesting the songs. Eventually they had to count out and be like, it is country and we will play it. It's weird and foolish, I think, for anyone to be like Beyonce of the deep south Texas and by way of Louisiana can't hold down this genre. I think she killed it. But yeah, you know, it all comes it all stems from when she did that song with

the Dixie chicks CMT's Well when it comes to Beyonce you have that skill where you can remember anything any date that happened Oh, yeah, for sure for sure But but it was a you could tell by watching the audience, this young lady's on stage killing it. You know, like literally on stage giving a great performance. And there were certain people in the audience who didn't appreciate the fact that a black woman

was singing, a black pop star was singing their music. Or that she brought their outlaws. They kicked the Dixie Chicks out. She said, I'm bringing them back with me. Yeah, and she brought their outlaws. They kicked the Dixie chicks out. She said I'm bringing them back with me Yeah, and she brought the outlaws with her right? That's what the Dixie chicks should change their name to the outlaws You know what I mean? They're just the chicks now But they buddy Hold up. We're not done. Are we not we're not done? Everybody likes little ass play don't even But they were hating on her and that's where this album comes from the album comes from Everybody likes Lil' Ass Flay, don't even act like you don't.

But they were hating on her, and that's where this album comes from. The album comes from, it would have been different if people would have been like, yo, yo, come on through, everybody's welcome. But instead she got a lot of pushback, and it showed up again. Man, I'm a Beyonce fan, I can't lie. I sound like a beehive. Like the beehive. Like a beehive freaking, like how can, I don't get it, man.

Like if Beyonce was like, I'm gonna save Star Wars, I'd be like, go save it then. Save it! That's what you got, bro. Yeah. Show me what it is. She would do it well. You know what I mean?

She would do it well too. Oh, Beyonce. Oh my God. She's such a girl. We ain't never seen numbers like this ever. In Hilly. Ever. You know what I mean? Oh my gosh. Country ain't never seen numbers like this ever. In-house arrest.

Country ain't never seen numbers. Not only a country, people buying it, but everybody else is too. They ain't never seen numbers like this. Zach and Darrell are gay newlyweds in house arrest. Okay. I can't wait to see that movie. I'm going to listen. You've convinced me.
