So listen to Let's Be Clear with Shannon Doherty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Hey, guys, it's Zach and Donald here. We have a bit of bad news. It was just brought to our attention that Sam Lloyd, who plays Ted the lawyer on our show, passed away. And for me, this is really, very amazing person. We talk about it on the podcast, but he was a part of a band called The Blanks. And I remember realizing that Sam wasn't just a really funny actor, but he was also a really talented singer. And I played basketball with him and he was a very good basketball player. And

he was also a good friend. He was the nicest man I think I've ever met. He was so sweet and kind and just loved to laugh. I mean, he would come on and play that super nerdy lawyer character, but we would all just crack up so hard with Sam. And interestingly enough, he was a really good basketball player, right, Donald? I mean, I know you guys- He was an amazing basketball player. I remember I used to play in this league called the NBA Entertainment League, and the only qualification that you needed to have to be in the NBA Entertainment League was be in the entertainment industry. And I would try to recruit Sam every Sunday to play for my team. And he would say no because the Patriots are playing

and I can't miss the Patriots play. And I just thought he would be such a secret weapon because nobody would assume that Sam Lloyd could play basketball that well. And he was an assassin on the court. He was a killer on the court. Yeah. And like his character, I know that he found love, true love later in life and just had a baby. And this was caused by a tumor in his brain. And he had been fighting it a long time. And I actually saw him within the last six months or so. And he looked great. He looked amazing. And I didn't want to talk about, you know, I stayed, I danced around it because I didn't want to bring up the subject if he didn't want to talk about it. And he just

looked fully recovered. And today he finally lost his battle with cancer. That's, yeah, it's heartbreaking. It really is. So we love him and we know the fans do. And so this is very sad. So if you guys want to contribute to help his wife and baby, I myself have already given to it, and Joelle is going to let us know if anyone wants. The link at GoFundMe is a little confusing, so just search Sam Lloyd GoFundMe, and you'll find it.

And Joelle will also put it in the description of the episode this week. We love you, Sam. We love you, Sam. And I'm sure anyone listening here can attest to how hard that fella made us laugh. And I know for sure that he made a difference in a lot of people's lives because we all need to laugh and Sam made us laugh. So now we're going to switch tones, and in the spirit and honor of Sammy, we are going to go into our episode. So here we go. We just did a sort of drinks thing where, like, you know, nine people get together, you make a special cocktail,

and just kind of all shoot the shit over Zoom. It was fun. Wow. Maybe we could do that to Giddy. I wouldn't mind that at all. You know what? Speaking of drinking, it's come to my attention, thanks to social media, that every time I say,

you know what I mean, some people online are playing a drinking game and are taking shots. Yeah. Now, here's the thing. We listen to all the podcasts, right? Do you say, you know what I mean, a lot? I don't know how anyone can make it's the thing. We listen to all the podcasts, right? Do you say you know what I mean a lot? I mean, that's just the way you- I don't know how anyone can make it through the podcast without being on the floor drunk, dude.

How does that happen? I think it's because I'm just used to- That's just the way you speak. You always say that, or you know what I'm saying. Or you know what I'm saying, right. Right, right. First of all, I'm sorry. I didn't realize I said it that much.

Don't mess up their drinking game. I'm still going to say that shit, but whoever can make it through the podcast, whoever has made it through the podcast after me saying, you know what I mean, I'm sorry, but you have a problem. Right. And once quarantine is over, let's address it. Well, I'm just honored that people are doing drinking games related to the podcast. That's exciting.

There's no way anyone can make it through this podcast with me saying, you know what I mean, without being so drunk that they can't move anymore. There's no way. Especially if they're doing shots. Let's do an informal count, you guys, how many times he says, you know what I mean, in this episode. And then we'll know how drunk people are going to get. Right on. I like that idea there's a lot of that idea a lot of this if you guys aren't playing this game now's the time to get on board

right so every time today's gone by to the light that used to be Let the wine of friendship never run dry. Like the wine of friendship never. Ta-ta. You missed it. Here's to you. And here's to me. God, we got to really schedule that full Les Mis episode. I can't wait for the Les Mis ep.

I know. And I want to play Eponine and Cosette. You can be Javert. I want to be Gavroche. You want all the major roles. Good evening, dear Inspector. Lovely evening, my dear. Nobody wants to be Javert.

Why does anybody ever want to be Javert? I know this man, my friends. His name's Inspector Javert. So don't believe a word he says because none of it's true. This only goes to show what little people can do. Do you hear the people sing? That's going to be hard.

We're going to have to do every part. Dan's going to have a lot of mixing to do when we do the big act one closer. But let's sing the best song in the world. Welcome to Fake Doctors, Real Friends, Count us in, Donald. Five, six, seven, eight. Here's some stories about a show we made About a bunch of docs and nurses And a janitor who loved to hate

I said here's some stories that we all should know So gather round to hear our Gather round to hear our Scrubs Rewatch Show with Zach and Donald. As he sips his wine. What are we drinking today? You know, a lot of discussion. You got it right.

It's wine. Wine. Okay. A lot of discussion on what will Donald drink today? Because you shake it up. You had orange juice tequila. Yeah. And you had, I just love that in my mind you're just

going through an empty liquor cabinet and seeing what's left you know i made a supermarket run i gloved up yeah i gloved up i masked up and you know got a bunch of food and some libation yeah or said occasion that we are doing right now good uh i I also, you know, Joe Rogan, one of his sponsors is Alpha Brain. What's Alpha Brain? It's like this pill that you take that, you know, helps you focus. So Joe Rogan's marketing worked on you and you bought it? And I bought it. So do you feel smarter?

I don't know if I feel smarter, but I'm definitely more conscious of how many times I'm going to say, you know what I mean? How about that? All right. Well, the real test is if you say, you know what I mean? Or you know what I'm saying? Less. Right.

And Joe Rogan's magical pill is working on you. It could be a placebo effect or it could actually be real. If it is real, Alpha Brain, we would love to market your product as well. Oh my God. It's funny. Yeah. I've been, I've been listening to podcasts more and more since we've been doing this

one. And it's funny hearing all the different things people sell. And, uh, the, yeah, there's a handful of products. I'm like,

I've wanted to try too, because people are like good, especially since a lot of people, like, I imagine we are, as we start to do advertising, we we've told I heart and everyone, we only going to want to sell things that we really like or believe

in. And so when like, you know, Pete Holmes is telling you like, honestly about this product, he tried and really liked it. I'm like, yeah, I want to try that. Like, it's like a genuine testimonial. And I've been walking around the house and I'm like, there's things in my house that are so good. And I said to, to my gal, I said, you know, I could do an ad for this sponge. I said to my gal, I said, you know, I could do an ad for this sponge. This sponge is so good. You always go back to dishes. Look at you.

I do so many dishes. I don't know what it is about quarantine, but I do so many dishes. I mean, does everyone else out there feel like you're doing dishes for like a quarter of the day? There's so many dishes. The worst part is you clean your kitchen only to cook in it right away again. You know what I mean? My dad told me this story about he was in the military, and he had dish duty, and he cleaned a pot that was like – that you would literally feed an army with.

It was like a four-foot pot or something. And he said he spent hours, and he'd finally get all the grime off, and he finally was so proud of himself. It was like a giant task, and he'd hang it up on the hook, and just as he hung it up, somebody would take it off and put it back on the stove. And that's how I feel at my house. Right on.

Right on. You know what? But you're being fed. I'm being fed very well, and I do feel like this isn't an ad, but I'm telling you, this Scrub Daddy sponge, I could do an ad for it i really stand by and when i look at my whole my whole uh palette of tools for cleaning all these pots and pans my go-to is the scrub daddy and coincidentally it's got scrub in the title these fuckers should be advertising with us joelle call scrub daddy

let's get into this, right? Jenea Bonkin wrote us Yeah, Thanksgiving Yes, the Thanksgiving episode written by Jenea Who you went to college with Jenea went to Northwestern, so like me So we know that she's very smart Did you guys go at the same time?

We did, I don't think we really knew I think we were acquaintances there I also, you know, both Carey Brothers and Josh Radin went there, and I knew them as acquaintances. Well, there are a lot of people that went to Northwestern, dude. I know. There's a whole Northwestern Hollywood mafia because they have a very good film and TV program. But it's funny, two of my best friends went there, and I was just barely acquaintances with them there. And now we're as close as close can be with you.

You're the close friend that didn't go to Northwestern. I love those guys too. Did you go to the performing arts high school, by the way? I did. And I went to professional children's school. Shout out to the professional children's school. I, you know. Is that the fame high school?

No, I didn't get into the fame high school. I auditioned for it and I choked. I could picture you dancing on a cab like they do like leroy did in in fame i would have loved to have been leroy and danced on top of a cab in any type of fame production growing up in uh new york city and knowing that the school was right up the block from where i lived so you had to audition and you didn't get in i did not get in you know auditioning is tough because it's like one moment and you got to nail it. And we're all very young and a lot of people prepared a lot more than I did. And I thought I was just going to get by. I had already worked and everything like that. And I thought I was

going to get by just on the fact that I was a working actor already. And I remember really wanting to go to that school and I didn't get into LaGuardia. And all my friends got into LaGuardia, which is the famed high school in New York. And my mom was like, there's another school called the Professional Children's School, but it's a private school. And if you go there, you're going to have to work and get jobs in New York to pay for school. And I was like, oh, that sounds way more enticing than going and, you know, I'd be a professional already. And so throughout high school, I did commercials and stuff like that.

Oh, so you paid for your own- So I could pay for my education, yeah. That's interesting. I never heard of someone who paid for their own high school work. Well, I had already been working as an actor. So when I went to that school, there were a bunch of kids like me who did that. So you look at the people that went to that school. It's like Scarlett Johansson, Malcolm Jamal Warner.

I mean, pretty much everybody that was on The Cosby Show went to that school. Macaulay Culkin, Sarah Michelle Gallagher, Jerry O'Connell. Were you friends with some of these folks? All of these people. I remember when I... I didn't know Scarlett, because Scarlett's a lot younger than me. But the year I got there, Malcolm Jamal Warner and Tempest Bloodso had just graduated. And they were on The Cosby Show.

And I remember Anthony Michael Hall went there. And I thought that was the coolest thing ever. Because him and the other kid from Weird Science went there. And that was one of my favorite movies of all time. Me too, back in the day. All right, let's get back to this. So Janae, who you went to college with. Yes.

But I want to talk about one more thing before that. When you saw Fame and you saw Leroy, Fame the movie, were you like, oh my God, I want to be Leroy? No, I was never like, oh my God, I want to be Leroy. Because Leroy was a dancer. You weren't really a dancer, although you are a dancer. No, that's not why. Leroy was a very tough kid, dude, and had a switchblade, had a bunch of knives under his jacket and stuff like that. You know what I mean? Well, you grew up in Hell's Kitchen. I mean, did you- Yeah, absolutely. I grew up in Hell's Kitchen, and Hell's Kitchen is a very tough neighborhood.

And there are a lot of other very, very, very Kitchen is a very tough neighborhood. And, you know, there are a lot of other very, very, very tough neighborhoods in New York City. And so I just remember looking back at fame and being like, if I could be anybody, I want to be Bruno because he played the music and got to hang out with Irene Cara for the whole movie. They were like tight and best friends because he had the music and she could sing. And that's how the song Fame comes about where Bruno's dad is in the middle of the street. For the children, if you're not following, you need to watch a very special film called

Fame. Playing on his speaker. How did he get those speakers to get that loud? That's what I want to know. In the middle of wherever, you know, the school was at the time, his dad pulls up and blares, fame! I'm going to, and out of nowhere, people are dancing, come out of the school and are dancing on top of the cab and on top of all the cars.

How did he get this? I was so young when I saw that movie and I was like, this is a real school? You can dance in the streets? Well, I mean, I don't know much about the school, because as I said, I didn't get in. I know. Those were one of the reasons why I wanted to get in. I just wanted to break out in the middle of a song in the cafeteria, just like out of nowhere. I'm hungry for steak.

And you wanted Debbie Allen to be giving you the monologue. I got to meet Debbie Allen. You did? Did she do the monologue for you? She didn't, but she called me Leroy accidentally in the middle of a take yes oh my god you can check it out okay so i did this movie called next day air and it's with me most def uh mike epps wood harris a bunch of people are in it lauren london like a bunch of people are in it right and it takes place in philadelphia and i'm a i deliver packages so the the name of the movie is next day air and the name of the company in the movie that I worked for was NTA, right?

And the manager of the company was Debbie Allen, who played my mom who gave me the job at the company, right? My character's mom. Following you. And we're doing the scene. And she's, you know, yelling at me like she did to Leroy all the time. And in the middle of yelling at me, she goes, Leroy, boy. And I was like, what? Wow. I mean, did you think it was an honor? I would have thought it was an honor. I was so excited and so happy that I broke out into song.

What did you start? Where'd you start singing fame? I'm gonna live forever. i knew right then and there that's incredible i mean what an honor yeah it was amazing i think it's in the i think it's in if they do the gag reel in the credits like most movies like a lot of movies do then it's there or it might be on the dv whatever it is. Seek out the gag reel of Next Day Air, and you'll get to see Debbie Allen call Donald Leroy. Yes, best day of my life. Can we get into the episode, for God's sakes?

Absolutely. Elodie Keene directed it. Elodie only directed one episode of Scrubs, but did lots of other shows. Just looking at her credits on IMDb, she's done many, many a show and had Emmy nominations for L.A. Law, and she did a lot of Glee.

But with us, she was only around once. You know, the first thing that happens in this episode that is beautiful is Deontay Gordon at 16 seconds in. Immediately, as you hand him, he hands you a drink, as a matter of fact, as you walk into a bar. you a drink, as a matter of fact, as you walk into a bar. That was also very interesting for me because around that time,

I was definitely your best wingman when it came to going out and about. Talk about real life, because I was nerdy and had no game. Well, I don't know if you had no game. Well, I was shyer than you, and you were very- I just had been in Hollywood a little bit longer as a working actor than you had at that moment in time.

You were very confident, and this scene is definitely in the spirit of our real lives. But wait, before we get to you chatting up for wingmanning for me, so you guys, at 16 seconds, the guy who hands me a beer is Deontay Gordon. And not only was he Donald's stand-in for the entire run of the show, but he was a very good friend of ours, is a good friend of ours. And Donald plays golf with him still all the time. Actually, Deontay and I met on Clueless, the television show. And he wasn't my stand-in, but he did background on that one and then he went over and was doing stand-in work over on sabrina the teenage witch and when i went and did sabrina the teenage witch he was my stand-in for that and i had known him from doing clueless and i was like

dude if i get anything else you're coming with me oh and so he stood he stood in for me for quite a few so for those you don't know the um the stand-ins are are uh what happens we we block out we do figure out where we're going to go and all where we're all going to stand in rehearsal and where the cameras are going to move they put marks on the ground and then while we go off and go to hair makeup or or do other learn our lines and do other stuff. The stand-ins stand in our places and do all the blocking so that the cameramen can light them and can practice the camera moves and all that stuff. And they're supposed to be roughly your skin tone and roughly your same

height. But because Deontay was Donald's friend, he was standing in for him. But Deontay literally was so much shorter than Donald that they built special shoes for him. I don't know how high those platforms were. Do you remember he would wear them? Yeah. Well, him and J.K. wore them too.

Because J.K. would stand in for Cox and he would stand in for the janitor. So he had special shoes for when he had to stand in for the janitor. Right. Exactly. And they made it so that Deontay was my height because he's a little bit shorter than I am. Yeah. And I remember one night we were filming an episode, the Christmas episode, where he

has to run and they made him run in those damn shoes and I was like, dude, please don't twist your ankle. He's gonna fall on his ass. Don't die, dude! I just remember it was funny watching those guys in their giant platform boots. Looking like Frankenstein, the Frankenstein shoes. So yeah, so Deontay

Gordon, man, holy cow. He's a great guy. And the stand-ins for all of our stand-ins for the main cast were there all the time. And we became really good friends with them. And we would go out to bars with them. And we would hang out with them. I still hang out with Deontay. He and I play golf quite a bit.

Scott Rabideau was my stand-in. And we could never find him. So we made up a song. Do you remember the song? Rabideau Scott Rabideau was my stand-in, and we could never find him, so we made up a song. Do you remember the song? Rabideau, Rabideau, where is Rabideau? He's Rabideau, Rabideau, where is Rabideau? You know, Deontay was always punctual, so we'd...

But Scott Harris, who was one of our first ADs, and Frank Cameron, who's better known as Dr. Mickhead. We all play golf together. Well, not right now because we're quarantined. I hope I didn't say Frank's last name wrong because I call him Frank Mickhead all the time. But anyway.

You call him Frank Mickhead to his face? Absolutely. Does he like that? Does he like that? Mickhead is a big deal, dude. Mickhead. Mickhead. Does Mickhead get recognized out in the world?

Do people go, Mickhead? When he go, I'm sure when he goes to his home, he's from Canada originally. I bet you they know who he is in Canada. And I bet you there are a lot of Scrubs fans, if they saw him, they'd be like, holy shit, that's Mickhead. I was watching a movie and Beard Fosse was prominently featured as a background person. Skyfall. He person. Skyfall. He's in Skyfall. On an airplane?

No, he's on a train. He's on a train. I think it was a David Fincher movie, one of the big David Fincher movies. And there's an airplane, and the camera is going into the star, whoever it is, and it goes right by Beard Fosse. And I screamed. I was like, Beard Fosse! Yeah, I think it might. I truly believe it might have been Skyfall.

Okay. Yeah, so I played golf with those guys, and we get it in. Mick Head is a really good golfer, and so Scott Harris, believe it or not. Really? Yeah, and so are you, Deontay. I know you're listening right now. You're a good golfer too. Yes, you too, Deontay.

You know, I told everyone in the audience about lens spiking and I happened to find at 19 seconds in, there's a guy in a yellow shirt. You're going to see it, bam, right into the lens. Bam. The show barely started. Someone spiked in the lens. Also. Yeah, go ahead.

Do you remember? What up, dog? Yeah, what is that? I don't know where we started start but we started doing that and it it was one of those things that we would do to annoy uh the crew or maybe even the directors where we'd always be like what up dog and you do it in the episode oh do i do it right here when i walk in you say what up what up i laughed out loud when i go jennifer when i see the pretty girl you're homer simpson yeah it's like it's like it's yeah it's exactly like that in my vo you hear jennifer um also fat albert cast fat albert cast holy cow now i didn't really know i know what fat albert

is but i never watched it did you watch it i grew up on fat albert fat albert and the brown hornet that was the so fat albert was the show and inside of the show fat albert they would jet to the clubhouse in the junkyard to watch the brown hornet which was another show but this one's about a superhero uh and so fat albert and the gang after they did like it was like bill cosby was like not only is fat albert gonna be a prominent story on the fat albert show but we're going to introduce another story called uh the brown hornet and the brown hornet uh was a superhero obviously i used to love fat albert and the cosby kids what would that what would that what would now cosby would do how many of the voices he did all of them i think all of them

no i don't know about all of them but he did most of them i don't know if he did i don't know if he did rudy but he definitely did fat al. I remember Mush Mouth. He definitely did Russell. Do your Mush Mouth impersonation. Bill Coddry definitely did Mush Mouth. My be folks be. I be going to be. The bargain be based be bent. The buy be me be. The biggest base be.

And what would happen in an episode of Fat Albert? Like, what was the premise? They would just get into hijinks like kids? They went through. Well, yeah, but it was also lessons. Right. You know what I mean? You know, regardless of what people might think of Bill Cosby right now

and how they, you know, view him. Right. Well, we don't have to talk about what we learned about Bill Cosby, but back in the day, he created this educational. Educational-wise, he was, you know, he educated a lot of young people. You know, there were picture pages. There was so many things. He educated a lot of young people. There were picture pages. There was so many things.

So the show was educational for young people. Absolutely, absolutely. I used to love Bill Cosby. And the one thing was Rudy, if I'm right, if I remember correctly, Rudy was the one that hung out with these guys who had a little bit of money already. Everybody else is broke except for Rudy. So when they would go to the junkyard, they were a junkyard band, right? And so when they would cut to the junkyard band,

Rudy actually had an electric guitar, and he would be jamming with them while everybody else is playing trash from the junkyard. Right. But were they good on their trash when they played? Oh, yeah, absolutely. I mean, if you ever listened to Fat Albert. What did you all say? Bill did a lot of voices, but not all. If you ever watch Fat Albert, the music was always on point.

For me, it was really awesome to see brown people, to see black people on television during the Smurfs and all of these other shows where you couldn't see that. Right, exactly. And then they made a movie, a live action movie with Kenan. Yes. I never saw it. I mean, I think Kenan's fucking hilarious, but I never saw it.

They had a lot of very talented, very funny, very, very funny people in that movie. Yeah. Kenan's hilarious. You know, he was in my film Going in Style, and he came in one day, and his scene was to just, he's supposed to be, you know, disciplining, if you will. He's a store manager that's caught Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, and Alan Arkin shoplifting in his grocery store. And he came in and just, it was so funny, the shit he was doing. And then at a certain point, I had this idea like,

I'll bet if we talk about stand-ins, I'll bet if we bring in the stand-ins for these three guys who are so intimidating, when I put the cameras on Keenan, he'll be even more free to just go nuts. So I pulled the legends out and put in their stand-ins. We shot over their shoulders. And Keenan was just, now that he wasn't like, you know, like anyone would be intimidated by Michael K., Morgan Freeman. I don't think he was intimidated by them, but he definitely doesn't want to hurt their feelings. Intimidated may be the wrong word, but you know what I mean?

Like, I personally, if I was the actor, would feel way more free to riff if I'm talking to Morgan Freeman's stand-in and I'm not like, you know, in my head about it. Right. And so my point is he came up with the funniest shit. And I put a lot of- Well, Kenan is amazing. I've known him since we were really young. He might have been a teenager when I was like in my early 20s and I moved out to Los Angeles. And I was doing Clueless, the television show, and he was doing all that. And, you know, it's really interesting when you meet people and then they wind up being on one of the funniest shows in the history of shows.

You know what I mean? We've been fortunate enough to know quite a of shows. You know what I mean? We've been fortunate enough to know quite a few people. You know what I mean? And Kenan's one of those people that, you know, when we were younger, you knew that he was going to be, I didn't know he was going to be on Saturday Night Live, but I knew he was always going to be working in this industry because he was always funny and he's so talented.

Yeah, he's one of those people I just root for. I love that he's done so well and he fucking kills me on SNL. He crushes it, dude. He is a comedic genius. Hey, my name's Jay Shetty and I'm the host of On Purpose. I just had a great conversation

with Michael B. Jordan and you can listen to it right now. Michael is known for his performances in both film and television. His breakout role was in Fruitvale Station, playing Oscar Grant, which earned him widespread praise and numerous award nominations. His portrayal of Killmonger in Marvel's Black Panther, one of my favorites, further solidified his status as one of Hollywood's leading actors, earning him widespread acclaim for his complex and compelling performance.

In our conversation, Michael really opens up. You're going to love listening to it. And I can't wait for you to check it out. The closest to getting what you want is always the hardest. It's always the feeling when you're getting ready. You know, people give up right before they get what they've always wanted to get. People quit.

So Sarah Chalk is, I've got an appendicitis and Sarah Chalk is touching my body.

There's not that much sexual tension really between us yet, I'm finding. Although I do at the end of the episode reference that, you know, I have feelings for her. But it's interesting that it feels like Bill turned down like any sexual tension at this point. You know, he was going to have JD go date a bunch of other women. But Sarah doesn't seem sort of jealous that you tell her that I was flirting with some girl. And then when she's examining me and I'm naked,

we just go right to all the jokes of the freezing cold thing. How rough she is. Right. Speaking of freezing cold, how long did it take to put that ice makeup on, dude? Forever, man. And I noticed I have two of those in this episode, two full body makeup things. And they would take hours and hours to do. And it looked great, though, didn't it? It did.

It looked really cool. They did a great job. And I think Sarah, this came from Sarah genuinely having freezing hands, right? I wrote that down. She truly has cold hands. If I remember correctly, her hands are always freezing.

She runs cold. I don't think her blood reaches her extremities. I think her hands are like blue. wouldn't be you might be right they might always be blue they might always be blue no i just remember i i'm sorry i just want to say that this is like you know bill would take things from our real lives like i'm sure donald and i going out to the club and sarah having ice cold hands like but when i when i when i saw this i was like i'm pretty sure as i remember, Sarah had freezing hands. Yeah.

Yeah, absolutely. This is also the episode where it feels like Bill realized somewhere along the line that Ken Jenkins is a comedic genius. Amazing. Because now he's starting to really stretch his comedic skills. Yeah. You're seeing a lot of funny jokes from Ken throughout the show. Yeah. Ken's got a big part in this episode, and I thought he was very, very funny.

I didn't recall Cox's mentor coming in. I didn't remember that storyline at all. It's the only time I can remember in nine years where he has a mentor that he's trying to impress. So much of the show is he's our mentor, and we're all trying to live up to his expectations. And I was struck as we were watching it going, oh, this is early on. And we're seeing someone that he's so bad.

And he does, we did that fantasy where he's doing all these gymnastic flips. Yeah. Which Johnny probably could do, although I'm sure that was a stunt double. But Johnny's the kind of guy who's like, give me a week. I got it. And his baseball field out there doing flips right he actually wears a baseball jersey in this episode for the whole episode what is that jersey did you know i have no idea that's a question we should ask bill right now bill what is that jersey joel can you ask uh uncle bill

what the heck was the thinking behind the random baseball jersey that Johnny C wears throughout this episode? Man, I don't know what that jersey was. Johnny C changed his jerseys all the time. He rarely asked permission. It was always for some athlete or team that he liked. It was Jeremy Shockey for a second. And then it was Chris Chelios, who I believe is a close friend of his. But I just

kind of let Johnny own his character. And I'm calling him Johnny because he calls me Billy. I think it's turnabout's fair play. Very interesting. Also, you know, Bill tells a story about how the show is written about him and his best friend and how he thought it would be one of the most scariest experiences of his life, waking up from surgery and his best friend standing over him, who he's, you know, drank beers and has blacked out, has gotten blacked out drunk with. Yeah. It's now coming to fruition right here, right now.

Yeah, you're right. Yeah, he always mentioned that. And so it didn't take him long to make that a storyline, which leads to probably one of the greatest exchanges in scrubs history that's in this episode which is should we recreate it for everybody i get to cut i get to know what do that you tell me what it is so we can at 1955 i want you inside of me i want to be the one inside i want to be the one inside of you if i ever have surgery again i want you to be the one inside of me i want to be the one inside of you

and which leads to which leads to he's the only one who's ever been inside of me but by the way the funniest part of that, dude, is the geniusness of keeping that Fat Albert runner going, and then it cuts to them, and you're in there, and everyone's laughing, and then they stop cold. Right, pause. Yeah, like, what? What did you say?

That was really clever to then go to a third time to the Fat Albert cast and have everyone just be laughing and then stop. then go to a third time to the Fat Albert cast and have everyone just be laughing and then stop. Randall Winston plays the one with the giant mask on his face. Oh, really? That's Randall Winston. Who was one of our producers who we told you always played Death because he was very tall. And there he is showing up again as one of the – do you remember that character's name?

The Cosby kids. Oh, man. Do you remember that character's name? The Cosby kids. Oh, man. There was Yuck Mouth, Rudy, Russell, Bill, Dumb Donald, which I hated that character's name. Did people call you Dumb Donald?

Thank goodness, no. But there was Dumb Donald, Bucky, Weird Harold, something like that. Weird Harold. Yes. Oh, Joel's pointing at you. Weird Harold. I remembered. Weird Harold is the guy who wears the mask?

Yes Was it ever explained why he wears a mask? No, it might have been, I don't remember We'd have to go back and look at that show Okay But yeah, that's who Is it Weird Harold, am I right? So Dumb Donald is the one with the hat

Weird Harold is the super tall one With the curly hair Oh, okay So Dumb Donald's the one with the mask Yeah, yeah, with the hat. Weird Harold is a super tall one with the curly hair. Oh, okay. So Dumb Donald's the one with the mask. Yeah, with the hat mask that's pulled down over his eyes. That's Dumb Donald. Maybe I did like Dumb Donald because that was also very... He talk like this!

I could be wrong. I bet everyone would like to see you do a Fat Albert episode. I auditioned for the Fat Albert movie. I wanted to be Rudy. Everybody wanted to be Rudy. Everybody wanted to be Rudy. Everybody wanted to be Rudy. Who got it? I forgot who got that.

Do you remember that? We can look that up. Okay. God, we're giving Joelle a lot of assignments today. Joelle in the live action movie. That wheelchair wheelie, I thought to myself, is Donald really doing that? I did.

I don't think you did. I didn't? Well, I was asking myself, because it was pretty impressive don't think you did i didn't well i was i was asking myself because it was pretty impressive you held it a long time and then when it falls over at 655 you can see sort of training wheel things on the wheelchair i love how you're like i did do it if you pause if you pause it like do it i know you't remember. But if you pause at like 6.55, which I did, you can see on there, there's these stuntman special wheels. So you had training wheels, fool.

That's crazy. Rudy was played by Shed, Rack, Anderson III. Okay. That's in the live action movie? I don't think that's real. Is it? Donald's questioning your... I don't know. I know the guy donald's questioning your i don't know he was also i know the guy that played rudy was also in uh dream girls well joelle see if shedrock anderson

the third was in dream girls so this is according to imdb 2004 live action rudy ish and jack old rudy because i see some of these guys have oh that might have been young rudy or something just go to Dreamgirls. The dude who was in Dreamgirls played Rudy, I'm pretty sure of it. The one that was always with Jamie Foxx. Okay, give me two seconds to... You work on that, Joel.

So, Donald, at 6.57, when I'm watching the TV in my hospital room right before the janitor takes it away, I'm doing all the voices in that tv show all right no i did a couple of them too it's jerry springer i'll cut you i'll cut you man you did the i'll cut you i'm the i'm the dude that's the boyfriend i played the boyfriend yeah yeah yeah yeah i didn't know it was both of us i thought it was just me

no yeah am i the man or the woman i don't even remember you're you're the woman i'll cut you i'll cut you i will cut you now we should have been a funny runner that whenever there was a tv show on and you didn't see it it was our voices i think that may be the only time we did it well danny that was one thing danny would do he would be like you guys want to you want to he would even let me hear what you did so i knew everything that you were going to say and then i said something to match what you was probably very first season we were just so excited to do anything whereas yeah after that it was just like please no danny i don't want to later we're like please we got to go home yeah but season one we're like do you need me to do any other voices i could could do the TV voices.

Speaking of late night sketch shows, Michael McDonald is on this episode. From MADtv. He went on to direct episodes for Scrubs, and he came back as that character again. Yes, and I thought this was the one where he was going to say his most famous line, I broke my penis. Right.

But it wasn't that one. No, it wasn't that one. This is the introduction for that character. He's very funny and a very sweet man. By the way, what's the you know what I mean, Karen? Is anyone keeping track? I haven't said. Have I said you know what I mean today? You've ruined the drinking game for people. Have I said it today? I've been trying. You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, I mean. You know what I'm saying? I remember when you came into work one day and you're like, you know what the new thing is? You know what I'm saying? You know what I mean? I remember when you came into work one day, you're like, you know what the new thing? Like, Donald would always tell me, like, what the, you know, I'm just like. You know what I'm saying? Has always been going on. No, but dude, I remember when you came in one day and you were like, because Donald would always keep me abreast of like, you know, the new, the new cool saying.

The new slang. Yeah. And he'd be like, you know what the new thing is? That's what's up. That's what's up. Do you remember that's what's up? Dude, I remember you coming in and being like, you were like giving your nerdy white friend an insider info.

You're like, hey, just so you know. Like with your hand over your mouth, like don't tell anyone, but the new thing is that's what's up. Right. And to this day, you say that's what's up all the time. That's what's up all the time. That's what's up is the, that is what is up. You use it like for everything.

It's like, you know how like in the Smurfs, they'd be like, I Smurfed him, Papa Smurf. Donald, it's like a universal expression. Donald would be like, how you doing? I'm like, I'm great, man. I'm just feeling good. Just did a big workout. That's what's up. Because that is what's up.

Yeah. And you're like, hey, man, what are you doing? You want to go out to dinner? Yeah, let's do it. That's what's up. That's what's up. Keep it 100. That's what's do it that's what's up that's what's up keep it 100 that's what's up that's what's up keep it 100 replace keep it real all right so i'm just looking at what joelle said the guy from dream girls was keith robinson and he played bill yes keith and he played bill ah he played bill so then who played rudy oh you

already said it shedrack anderson the Come on. Try and keep up, Donald. That's what's up. That's what's up. You know what I mean? No, I didn't. Zach said that. You can't drink. You don't drink if I say it, everybody.

Zach said that, not me. Yeah, so 823 is the second full body makeup thing. Right. Full bronze. All gold. All bronze. All bronze, I believe. Yeah, that took some time, as you can imagine, getting your full body bronze.

Well, you didn't have your whole body. Well, you still look skinny, man. Well, they didn't do, like, my penis, but they put on, like, a banana hammock, a bronze banana hammock. They had to do everything. For those of you who can't see Zach Braff right now, my buddy works out every day. He eats healthy. He has someone making him meals right now. Well, you make it sound like, well, I do have a chef, but it's my girlfriend.

It's not like I've hired a chef. I have an amazing chef. I didn't say, I wasn't going to get into all of that. I wasn't going to get into any of that. All I was saying. Are you looking at my muscles right now, aren't you? Yeah. I have something embarrassing to say, though.

So I bought this. This is a Black Widow tank top. Nice. Have you seen Black Widow yet? I can't comment on that. But this is a Black Widow tank top with Yelena on it. And I thought it would be fun to order it. Oh, so her character's name is Yelena?

Yeah, I think that's public. Is it? It better be. It better be. We got to edit it out. It's public? Joelle's nodding. Joelle, you sure about that?

It's Yelena? Joelle's a big hit. Yeah. We might have an exclusive. Disney's going to be pissed. No, we'd have to edit it out. So is Marvel. So is Marvel.

But Disney's going to be pissed. No, no. It's public. It's public. But anyway, so I ordered this tank top because I thought it would be funny and cute. And it came as a women's a women's medium and it fits you no what arrived is a women's like medium or large and it fits you my point is you might think i look particularly muscular today it's because i'm wearing a women's medium tank top it doesn't

look like it's a medium for a woman. It looks like- Let me look. Let me look. Let me look. It's a women's large. It's a women's large. Okay, there we go. But it has a female cut.

You see, they don't cut men's tank tops like this. They don't? No. But anyway, it's all they had. Well, you look good. You work out every day and it shows. And Joelle just said that it is public, so don't get me in trouble. Okay, so what's her name again?

The only exclusive that you're not getting, which is an exclusive, is her character's name is Yelena. Yelena. Let's move on. Let's move on.

Carla had a funny-ass line. You know, we were just talking when Judy was on about how she didn't always get jokes, but I laughed out loud at nine minutes when she goes,

you don't want a hundred-pound white girl mad at you. You'll flinch every time you hear a Range Rover. That was funny. Yeah, it was. Now, when JD says, do they celebrate Thanksgiving in your homeland, do we

believe that JD, who's gone through med school and is very intelligent, is he just playing a joke, or does he seriously not understand that Judy's from, that Carla's from Chicago? I think he's being funny. Trying to make her laugh.

Yeah, trying to make her laugh and then realizes he said a really bad joke. Or maybe he's asking the Dominican Republic. Is that what it is? Well, yeah, her character is Dominican, yes. I know, but do you think the character of JD is trying to be funny or is he saying to people people in the Dominican Republic celebrate Thanksgiving? Maybe, maybe.

Okay. Maybe. Can we talk about how amazing your moonwalking is at 925 when you sing, I Get to Cut You Open? You know, I worked really hard on moonwalking as a youth after I saw Michael Jackson do it at a very, very, very young age. How did you learn to do that? Fucking hell, it's so good. You can't moonwalk? I can do a little bit of backwards but it doesn't look like what you're doing you can't go side to side to side dude is it still moonwalking if you're going all around and moving forward absolutely it's a moonwalk as long as you're moving backwards like in a backwards direction even if it's side to side it's moonwalking and when you're walking in place that's considered moonwalking.

Michael Jackson, sorry for this stupid question, but did Michael Jackson really invent the moonwalk? No, it was around way before Michael Jackson. I feel like a tap dancer created the moonwalk, and Michael Jackson just bit off of it. No, so Michael Jackson just made it famous then probably, right? Yeah, well, yeah, Motown 25. And he busts into

boom i literally you literally gave me goosebumps right if you were a break dancer you knew how to moonwalk i think i saw break in the movie in the theater i mean it was it was breaking was such a popular, Breakdancing was such a popular. Right, Breaking was the West Coast version of Breakdancing. And then the East Coast version of Breakdancing was Beach Street. Okay, I never saw Beach Street. Did you ever see Beach Street?

No. You never saw Beach Street? Beach Street. You never saw Beach Street? No, but I remember Breaking. Rocksteady Crew? No. All these people were in that bad boy.

It was like all of the East Coast. I'm looking it up. Yeah. Breaking the movie was. That's the West Coast. I loved that movie. Do you remember some of the characters? Ozone.

Ozone, Turbo, Kelly. Ozone, Turbo, Kelly. I just thought these people were so cool when I was a kid. This was 1984. This looks like it came out. And then they did a sequel, Electric Boogaloo break into the electric boogaloo and that's when they're trying to save the school they're trying to save the school if you're a young person listening to this just know that breakdancing was so popular that they were making breakdancing

movies back in the day and turbo gets hurt and he winds up in the hospital are we gonna take a break bro we're gonna we're gonna we're gonna moonwalk into a break here we go hey my name is jay shetty and i'm the host of on purpose i just had a great conversation with michael b jordan and you can listen to it right now michael is known for his performances in both film and television.

You're going to love listening to it. And I can't wait for you to check it out. The closest to getting what you want is always the hardest.

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Joe Mooney.

What's going on, guys? Hi, Joe Mooney. You're out of New York, Joe? Yeah, upstate. Up near Albany. Albany. He's from Albany. You get a car.

You get a car. You get a car. How's it going? Welcome to Fake Doctors Real Friends. We are the Fake Doctors Real Friends. I'm sorry I'm wearing a female tank top, but that's just what's happening today. He looks good. Look at the arms.

Show him the arms, man. Well, Joe, these arms aren't usually this big, but when you wear a woman's tank top, you tend to look a little bit larger. You look great as always there, Zach. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Welcome aboard. Do you have any questions for the legendary Donald Faison?

I just want to say, first of all, that this is honestly a dream come true. I'm a giant fan of the show and I can't thank you guys enough for having me on. Thank you so much. We're just happy to be doing it, man. It's funny, on social media, people are loving it and saying, thank you to Donald and

I for doing this so much. Whereas Donald and I are like, thank you for having any interest at all, because we're both so bored in quarantine. The fact that we get to sit around and joke with each other twice a week, and the fact that anyone is listening beyond our moms is amazing. So we're happy to be like it. My mom doesn't listen to the show. Sorry, beyond my mom. My mom texts me after every episode, and it's more interest than in any other thing I've ever done. My mom texts me like, oh, my God, I loved how Johnny C. was calling you Zachy, and Donald was so funny today. I get notes from my mom. I'm sorry.

Go ahead, buddy. All right. So first question is when Colin Farrell was on the show, he turned the hospital into just a thirst frenzy. Did the same thing happen on set, and who was the thirstiest for it? Sarah. Sarah was definitely thirsty. No, Judy might have been really thirsty for it.

No, Sarah was all riled up. Sarah was thirsty. Sarah was riled up. I mean, I remember being jealous, actually, to be honest. I mean, I know Colin Farrell's Colin Farrell and everything, and he's a very handsome man, but I was a little like, all right, all right. I was like, Sarah, bring it down.

Let's bring it down a little bit. Yeah, I mean, I think all the women were giddy. He's a very, very handsome man and charming. He's so charming. And Colin is a huge movie star still. At the time, it was like the height of his explosion. So the fact that he did it, I think he was probably one of the biggest stars we ever had on the show. And I remember just as a shout out to Colin, I remember at the time, you know, we gave him a chunk of money to be on the show.

And he gave it all to his charity as another testament to his character being a good man. Amazing, dude. That's awesome. But no, everyone, including Donald and I, were a little giddy that Colin was visiting. It's hard to blame you, honestly. No, I mean, come on. Do you have another question? Do you have another question?

Yeah, sure. You can ask a few. If they're bad questions, we'll just edit it out. Don't worry about it. Yeah, yeah. We'll just edit the shit out of this. questions we'll just edit it out don't worry about it yeah yeah we'll just edit the shit out of this so uh my second question kind of pertains towards uh sarah's character elliot as well so elliot is in my personal pantheon of like all-time tv crushes you know growing up i was probably like

13 14 15 when you know this shit was really going so i was wondering who in your minds is in your pantheon oh boy all-time TV crushes. I've got a couple. I've got a few of them. Me too. And I'll – You start. Lark Voorhees from Saved by the Bell.

She played Lisa Turtle. Holy cow. When I was a kid, I was so in love with her. I also was so in love with Jada Pickett Smith when she was on A Different World. Oh, my gosh. You couldn't tell me nothing bad about Jada Pickett. Before she became Will Smith's wife. Oh, my gosh.

And still to this day, she's still, right? Who else? Of course, Carrie Fisher, Princess Leia. Right. He did kind of say TV shows, but we'll take it from tv i mean well then if it's from i was gonna say i was gonna say lisa silverstone is the first that came to my mind but that's technically a film but you don't mind if we go film you just mean our our youth crushes yes i mean i opened the rabbit hole you guys feel free to jump right in well those are my three those Those are my three right there. My first was Suzanne Somers on Three's Company. Now,

when I was a little boy watching Suzanne Somers on Three's Company, she was doing things to me that I didn't know what was happening to me. And we were a religious family, and I sat down at the Shabbat. We would have Shabbat dinner on Friday nights, and I was eight years old, and I sat down at the Shabbat dinner, and

I raised my hand, because my dad was quite stern when it at the Shabbat dinner and I raised my hand because my dad was quite stern when it came to Shabbat dinner and he said, go ahead, Zach. And I said, dad, why does my penis get hard when I look at Chrissy from Three's Company? I had no idea that it was anything inappropriate to bring up at Shabbat dinner. Did you get dismissed from the table for saying that?

No, my father instantly, everyone started dying laughing, as you would. I mean, I really, you know, I didn't know what it was. I was genuinely like, hello, father, I have a question. I'm having a physical reaction to Chrissy from Three's Company, and I would like everyone at the table to weigh in on what it might be. My whole life, my whole life, everyone in my family has joked about that story. The other idea, the other one that came to my mind right away when you said it was Nicole Eggert on Charles in Charge.

Yes, absolutely. That was another one, yes. Nicole Eggert on Charles in Charge. Yes, absolutely. That was another one, yes. Nicole Eggert on Charles in Charge. Oh, and Alyssa Milano, who was the boss. Alyssa Milano, of course. Also, Joe from Facts of Life. I had a weird thing for Joe. Nah, Tootie, baby.

You were Tootie. You know, a lot of people are Blair or Tootie. I was a Joe guy. Ah, interesting. But Nicole Eggert was just, I remember thinking like, what are these feelings? What are these feelings? Also, Linda Carter in Wonder Woman.

There was a special episode. She spun around once and she'd be regular Wonder Woman. There was a special episode or two where she would spin around a second time and she'd be in a bathing suit, a Wonder Woman bathing suit. Well, she would spin around again and then she'd have the bike outfit or – Oh, I guess I didn't watch all the episodes. I didn't know – how do you think she could tell her magic like, hey, I need bike outfit.

Hey, I need swimsuit. I think it's just a power that Wonder Woman has where she says, this is the situation. Really? Gear up. All right, so you're saying when she's spinning, she's telling her her magical powers i need the regular outfit or i need cyclist wonder woman or any bathing suit

wonder i don't even think she has to tell her power that i think it does it automatically power just knows this is the situation we're about to go swimming you don't need the cyclist uniform right all right okay you know hey one more question one more question okay i was gonna say that reminds me of quick change from the NBA halftime show. It's Donald. You might catch that one. I don't know what that is. What do you mean by Quick Change?

It's a halftime show. This person just like puts a robe up, puts it down, different outfit. Robe up, robe down. Different outfit. Yeah, right. Where it's like one of those pull-off things, right? Yeah, exactly. Do you have another question, Joe Mooney?

You stumped Donald in NBA nba trivia i just i don't go to i haven't been to a lot of games in a while there's a chicago bulls documentary going on are you watching that donald i am watching it i don't know listen if dan's watching it dan's shaking his head furious i'm gonna tell you something i think everybody's watching it because first of all when i was a kid michael i i think everybody can speak for how magical michael and you know there's magic johnson but then there was Michael Jordan. I think, for me, he was my idol growing up. You know what I mean?

You could say, we could talk Denzel. We could talk Harrison Ford. But the one that did it for real for every male in America, maybe even the world, was Michael Jordan. That was done right. Like the basketball, the competitive spirit, the IQ to be able to turn all of that into money as well. Just like Michael Jordan was everybody's hero,

every young male's hero. That and also he made having a bald head cool. There were a bunch of people with bald heads before that. There was Kojak. There was Lou Gossett Jr. Mr. Clean. Mr. Clean. There were a bunch of people who had bald heads before Michael Jordan.

It wasn't until Michael Jordan that people with hair were like, you know what? I'm shaving this bad boy. So he was an inspiration for your bald head. Well, yeah, because he made it cool to be a baldy, to have a bald head. You know, there was a movie back in the day called The Wanderers, and the bad guys in the movie were called baldies. It's fucked up.

And that sucked, dude. Yeah, it's fucked up. It sucked to... If you didn't like the way your hairline was, you had to live with that. Did you ever try the spray on stuff, by the way? Nah, man. Nah, nah, nah, nah. Because when I saw those infomercials, I thought maybe you could rock that.

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. I'm going to get you some for Hanukkah. I've never dyed my head. You know what? I did. You know what? I take it back. Recently,

I was doing this show and I was putting the dust. That's the spray, right? Right. Not the spray, the dust. Just dust. Okay.

That people use. And I was doing an interview for Us Weekly, and one of the co-stars from my show who was very young, she must have been 13 or 14 at the time, she goes, you know, look at Donald's hair. Look how much hair he has. I've got a secret to tell. I didn't know that that was dust.

I put my hand on his head and I pulled it away and I had a bunch of like dust on my hand to Us Weekly. Oh my God. Did they print that? It made it to, it made it, but thank goodness it didn't go viral. I fell to the floor laughing so hard. I've never been more embarrassed in my life. So from that moment on, I was like, I'll never use the dust again. I'm never using the dust.

Ron Papil, I think that was his name. He had a spray on hair. I remember there was an infomercial. Yeah, it was in the Fabulous Baker Boys, too. All right, man. Well, thank you for your questions. You took a trip down memory lane for our crushes. We digressed.

which earned him widespread praise and numerous award nominations. His portrayal of Killmonger in Marvel's Black Panther, one of my favorites, further solidified his status as one of Hollywood's leading actors, earning him widespread acclaim

for his complex and compelling performance. In our conversation, Michael really opens up. You're going to love listening to it, and I can't wait for you to check it out. The closest to getting what you want is always the hardest. It's always the feeling when you're getting ready. People give up right before they get what they've is always the hardest.

what they've always wanted to get. People quit. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Imagine you ask two people the same exact set of seven questions. I'm Minnie Driver,

You know, at 11.05, we kind of touched on this, but I thought it was a rare moment of Kelso actually practicing medicine. You never saw Kelso. I mean, can you think of another time? I'm sure there are, but I mean, for me, I'm surprised that he's actually working on a patient. It's nothing you ever saw. Yeah. You know, I was discussing that earlier, the episode where we all lose a

patient, Kelso's practicing medicine in that episode as well. And I touched on it in that episode. Whenever there was death in the hospital, whenever the hospital, whenever we were as characters against the odds of what the hospital could do to the patients, Kelso was practicing medicine. Kelso's one of the heroes. Other than that, he is the obstacle. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that was kind of cool. I didn't have much memory of Kelso actually saving a patient. It'll happen again when Dick Van Dyke's on the show as well. Oh, that's right.

1417, I laughed out loud when you go, baby, I was being a walrus. Yeah. And then we call right back to that joke. We called the joke right back. We call it back right away. See if you can name this film. Ready? It made me think of this.

Breakfast Club. Before you even do it. Oh, come it come on man you're ruining it for the fans the fans know what the breakfast club is no but they might have wanted a little bit of a trivia game all right go ahead do it do it do it now and then i'll pretend that i didn't know no no i don't want to edit your fuck up it's not my fuck up it's me knowing you as well as I know you, knowing that you're going to do. Yeah, you know, it's more like a married couple who's like, I've heard this story a zillion times. He's going to do Anthony Michael Holland Breakfast Club. Fucking asshole.

Listen, imagine you're listening to this and you're on your hike or you're on your treadmill or you're walking your dog or you're breastfeeding your kid and you go, ooh, Zach's going to give us a little trivia question donald ruins it if you have another trivia question about a walrus i will totally wait for you to do this i got one okay go ahead oh no it's what's the name of the manatee that lives underneath the hospital oh is it walrus? No, I don't know. It's Julian. 1452, the premiere of Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wrong.

Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wrong. You're wrong. You're wrong. You're wrong. He does that again, right? I just, that's the first time he ever did that. Yeah, you know what's interesting? On the wrong clock, it's three. Oh, it's three o'clock on the wrong clock.

Yeah, on the wrong clock, it's three. That's very clever that you figured that out. Is it? I never realized that the wrong clock was three o'clock. It's kind of a weird fantasy thing at 1741 when you're operating on me that you then look up into the lens as my bird's eye point of view i thought that was sort of not something we did a lot of that was kind of unique yeah you know it's a funny joke too is truth in the matter whereas a lot of a lot of people claim that when they're out and unconscious in the hospital and are going through whatever it

is that they're going through, that they're not in their bodies, but they're standing over their bodies always watching. You hear that story a lot. And I believe, I could be wrong, I believe it was a call to that. Maybe. I'm just saying it was cleverly done. And then you looked up into the lens. Again, I talked about how in the show show we don't have too much in the lens looking actually it happens twice on purpose in this episode when sarah um when the jokey thing where sarah punches me and i turn right into the lens kind of like raging bull and then and then with you doing it up to the to the camera on the ceiling when i'm watching you operate by the way i thought that was a cool thing just as a as a on a serious Turk note, that they really

sell in this episode that all joking aside, Turk's a really good surgeon, which I thought was cool. I think that was important for everyone to understand also. You know, the hospital, in a lot of ways, the setting in the hospital is very jokey and these guys are, it's a bunch of comic relief but at the end of the day these guys are very very very good at their jobs and you know as bill talks about it's important that you laugh with them and you cry with them but you understand that they're very capable exactly and i think for for me watching that re-watching the show now this

was a moment where bill clearly wanted to hammer home, like, you know, JD's nervous. You know, he doesn't know how good a surgeon he is. And Bill really wanted to hammer home, like, no, no, Turk's a really talented surgeon. Right. And this plays throughout the rest of the series also. You know, Turk becomes a superstar surgeon. And the Todd, too, actually, believe it or not, is a very good surgeon. At 2021, did you stitch your initials into me? That's not important. And then I saw

on the Scrubs wiki, they pointed out that in future episodes, you never see JD's scar on all the times that he's shirtless. Oh, that's interesting. The last thing I wrote down, I don't know if you have anything else, was I think I improvised the last thing. There was the Nina.

Yeah, you did. I remember laughing so hard at that, too. And I laughed because I remember you having to explain to me, no, those were the ships. Yeah. Because I was like, what the hell are you talking about? Wasn't it the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Mariaia santa maria yeah joelle's nodding nice also see elementary school paid off it did there was something that you stated uh your character states when we're all walking into the bar about how when you work with people you become family with them and i just thought while

watching that i was like like, holy cow, we worked together long enough that we all became a family. You know what I mean? Where I look at Sarah and Judy as my sisters. I look at you and Bill and John C. McGinley as my brothers. You know what I mean? and i still cherish to this day i cherish the moments that we spent together and if you're ever able at any moment in time to just be in the moment and not worry about what's going to happen in the future or what's happened in the past, if you're surrounded by people you truly love, you're so lucky and blessed. And that's what the end of the show is saying. You know what I mean? It's saying, you know, you're going to meet a bunch of people in life. And at some point, you're going to rely on other people besides yourself. And if you're lucky to have those people

who will really step up for you, you're genuinely lucky. And so- Yeah. I feel very lucky to have made this group of friends. It's very rare on a project to come away with such lifelong friends. And I think that's where the fun of this going back is just, I mean, I find myself just smiling thinking about seeing Johnny the other day or seeing Judy and looking forward, of course, to doing this with you. And then I'm texting Bill about something. I'm like, when are you coming back on? He's like, anytime you want. And I don't know.

It's kind of like getting the family together every week. It's great. It really is cool. You know what I mean? It really is cool. You know what I mean? And just knowing that we cared about each other and still care about each other so much that we show up for each other, even just to talk for an hour and a half. I think especially during this time, I find myself really longing for human connection and reaching out to friends and family. And, you know, when we planned to start doing this, you know, COVID hadn't hit yet.

And now that we're doing it in quarantine, I don't know. I think it's more special than I, it probably would have been because there's this, we both have this natural instinct to want to connect and relate and look back with love. Yeah. And it's all love. It's all love. It's all love. So love to all of you who are listening. This is a lot of fun and And please keep hitting us up on our social media. We love hearing from you. We love the response.
