Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Guys, I'm phrasing, why why don't you have any heat on?
I don't have the heat on because we found out
that the the house that we bought, it's really old.
Built in nineteen seventy nine. That's old for California, not
the rest of the earth. Where in California that's old,

(00:20):
especially when the hardware that was put in the house
is still the hardware. Oh yeah, when twenty dude, when
I fixed up my house, I pulled cloth wiring out
of the walls. Cloth wiring is like from the thirties,
My dude, My dude, the heater is from nineteen seventy

(00:44):
nine and was broken. Yeah. Well, didn't you think when
you bought in nineteen seventy nine house, you're probably Oh god,
My wife was like, why won't the downstairs heat up? Right?
It's a little warm, but it's cold outside, and if
you live in Los Angeles right now, you know how

(01:05):
cold it is? All right for la Yes, my dude,
I have two hoodies on it right now. That's so
the HVAC guy comes out, turns it on, goes for
a little walk around the house to try and feel
the heat. I thought you meant he was so upset

(01:25):
at what he saw, he needs to go on the walk,
turns it on right, goes around the house, tries to
feel the heat, doesn't feel it. Goes to check back
on the heater. There's smoke. He's like, what the didn't
you don't you didn't you have an inspector that would
have looked at this before you. The inspector missed this.

(01:47):
I don't know how, but the inspector missed a lot
of ship this time around, the inspector. But the inspector.
I don't know what the fuck the inspector was doing
when inspecting my house, but the inspector missed a lot
of shit. Exactly, a lot of shit, well, a lot
of shit. Tell that inspector. You should call them and
be like, hey, you know, just you know, you missed

(02:08):
all of this ship and that's gonna do nothing. No,
it might make you feel better to be like, bro,
you should have turned the heater on and see that
it was smoking a little bit better review and yelled.
Not only that it was leaking ozone. There's a little
thing called carbon monoxide poisoning, right, well, this is I'm

(02:29):
sorry that this has happened to you. He immediately shut
off the heat. You're you know, you're yelling. I just
want to set I'm upsetting, you know, I just want
to I want you to know that we're welcoming our
audience in and you're kind of screaming at them. Well,
they need to hear this because a microphone, you don't
have to yell at a level that they can hear it,
you know, across the country to adjust. He's right, you

(02:51):
are going to have to adjust to your bad that's
on me. Welcome listeners. I apologize, but one of our
co hosts is very mad right now. He cut the
heat off. Right if it's out the house? Yes, except
four my children's room in our bedroom to roam around
my house it is so cold. Okay, Well, I'm sure

(03:12):
that you're going to buy a new a new heater, right, yes, Zach.
Are you gonna live like this? If you can make
your kids very double of these? Hey, I have to
eat my words, audience. I no, I just want to say,
and I should have learned. I should know this lesson
because so many great shows that I love do not

(03:33):
kick in for a few episodes. Sometimes you're kind of like, Okay,
I'm curious, but I want to see more. You've intrigued me.
I've seen a lot of love for Shrinking Um for
on the on the interwebs. But I got to say,
when this goes live, there will be four little up
of four that will be up, and episode three and
four are really good to check it out. But I

(03:54):
continued because of all the love for Last of Us
episode three, including from Joel and from so many other
people I know, and people on the on Instagram were
like wow. And so without any spoilers, I just gonna
say that that was a really beautiful episode and I
really liked it a lot, and it was an example
of how a show about zombies can be about way more. Yeah,

(04:19):
it's a show about love, all different types of love.
And Joel, I have a question for you because this
because I'm not really on I'm not on Twitter or
Facebook or TikTokers, you know, Jay date Um. What what
was the reaction to it being I'll just say the
obvious that's everywhere, that being a gay couple, because it

(04:40):
wasn't that way, I assume in the game, and I
know that people can get very hostile about these kind
of things. How was the reaction on the interwebs I'm
going to say, very very very light game spoilers. It's
different than the game. In the game, that's hinted that
these two are in a relationship and they just went
all the way. On the show, yeah, well, and in

(05:01):
the game it's so much more tragic. They one of
the characters does not decide to change or evolve at all,
and it causes the other character to grow resentful and
eventually meets his end in a very sad and tragic way,
versus here where it's just such a loving story. I

(05:22):
think the reactions have been mixed and critically it's a
huge success. I think for the queer community it's oh gosh,
it's so wonderful. I'll just say this is no spoilers
if you know anything about this show, but it's two
middle aged men falling for one another and it's really
lovely and it's not something we get to see a lot.
Some of the gamer bros were upset. I've seen ridiculous

(05:44):
comments like, oh, this is a filler episode, or this
doesn't push the plot forward. I would say, go back
and watch the opening and closing scenes and reflect on
what that middle portion is telling you about your two
main characters. I think it's very lovely and powerful, and yeah,
I just wondered because I know that there's been controversies
with the gamer community and thinking that things were becoming

(06:07):
woke and all that sort of culture that I that
I'm not really I'm not really that savvy on and
I know you you are. I just wondered if there
was I thought it was so beautiful. I just wondered
if how how the web responded. You're saying pretty positively
except for obvious exceptions. Yeah, that one small toxic community
is upset. But I don't you're called anyway? Gamer bros?

(06:27):
Is that what they're called. There is a group of
people called gamer bros. I think the gamer bros were
mostly excited about this development and change. The toxic bros
were less so. But you know, there's a group called
the toxic bros. The toxic The internet has a lot

(06:48):
of toxic bros. Yeah, just angry dudes who are like, well,
why do you have to look at gay people? Get
a life? Yeah, we're here. I heard this quote from
this writer Seth Godin that really stuck with me social media,
and he said, I have no interest reading people day
trading their emotions. Oh yes, oh yes, that really landed

(07:10):
with me. I was like, wow, that kind of is
what what what? So much of the internet is people
day trading their emotions facts. That fucking landing with me. Yeah,
get off the internet, guys. It's yeah, you know what,
I'm gonna be honest with you. The internet is great

(07:30):
for shopping. That's really It's like like one and and
you know what I mean, like because now even news
is like where are you getting your news? You know
what I mean, Like, that's the next that's the next.
Well I read on the news, Well where are you
getting your news? Because everybody wants a different point point
of view when it comes. In the spirit of that,
I just want to give a shout out to this
book I'm reading, which will blow your mind and you

(07:52):
guys all have to read it. And if you're a
reader out there, or listen to the audio book it's
called The Chaos Machine. Um. I heard about it on
this a different podcast as The Chaos Machine, The inside
story of how social media rewired our minds and our world.
It's by Max Fisher. You can get it on audiobook

(08:13):
or obviously regular book, but it is blowing my mind
and it's something. It's just it's just really really fascinating,
and and and about exactly what Donald said about how
how the world now consumes news and uh blah blah blah.
Were we are. We are your favorite entertainment source when

(08:36):
it comes to if you're listening right now, when it
comes to news. So I got some news. I finally
watched Black Panther too. Oh oh it was not the
reveal I was expecting. I want to expecting. I thought away,
say Shrinking. Did you watch Shrinking? No? Wow, I even
asked you too. I want to watch Shrinking, the movie movie,

(09:00):
not Shrinking. That's I like to binge. Man, I don't.
That's just how I am. Well, there's four up. You
can watch four for goodness thing. But anyway, but then
by the time I get to five, I'm gonna be like,
come on, man, I need more. A man can only
ask no disrespect, No disrespect to mister Harrison Ford, no
disrespect to mister Bill Laura. I think they both would

(09:21):
feel disrespected. In fact, I'm going to text the word.
I'm going to text the word what's funny. It's like,
it's so hard to get you to watch something, and
I'm like, what if there was a piece of content
that was written by one of your favorite writers and
stars your favorite actor. You're like nope, So anyway, okay,

(09:44):
go ahead with what you did. Watch you watch Black
Panther two. Oh my goodness, gracious man. First of all,
Michael B. Jordan is growing as a star. And when
I say he's grown as a star, he is getting
very very good at it, at acting and touching anger
emotions like in this movie. For those of you who've

(10:06):
seen it, you know, I don't want to give away
any spoilers, but at the time it gets to his part,
holy cow, kill Monger was right. Kill Monger was right.
That's all I'm gonna say. Alert Daniel is our special
guest for the audience. Here. Our special guest is in
the waiting room. Okay, let's bring her in audience. This

(10:28):
is the finale of season seven. And by the way,
some trivia for you guys. I don't know if you
even knew this Donald phase on. This is the one
hundred and fiftieth one, five zero episode of Scrubs. Wow,
I did not know that. I have Luishan five, six, seven,
eight before we got anything, right, Okay, Okay, no, don't
do it. Do it, and then we'll bring in the
special guts seven eight stories about show we made about

(10:54):
a bunch of doctor nurses story. So dado around here,
yeado around. So welcome everybody to the one hundred and

(11:15):
fiftieth episode of Scrubs. It is also the Princess Bride
homage episode, and it's also the season seventh finale. Um
and we've told you that audiences thought it was a
series finale because we didn't know if we were coming back.
It was never intended to be that. And gosh, I
gotta tell you, I really really really enjoyed it. I
don't think i've seen it since, and it's really fun. Well,

(11:39):
this episode is definitely one of those episodes that has
to happen before Kelso gets eliminated from the hospital, because
if it doesn't, it doesn't make sense. Right. So if
this start, if this were the season, this is what
was This is what's crazy about that the writer strike.
It would happen if this were like in the beginning

(12:00):
of the series, I mean the beginning of the season,
like it was meant to be, right, it would have been,
It would have made a lot more sense. But watching
it I'm like, wait a second, they almost kissed. Wait
a second, this is almost wait, I don't understand what's
And then I had to remember, oh, that's right. This
is out of whack. But yes, very funny. Yeah, and
a lot of money was spent. I gotta be the

(12:22):
biggest budget Scrubs episode ever, I think, yeah, easily, so
much special effects, just gluing, uh, Judy and I together
had to cost most of the budgets that would have
been on all of the other end also the monster
and the sets and everything. Before we get into it,
let's bring in the very special guest, the Princess herself.

(12:44):
Everybody all the way from Canada. Nan'll hit the button
and let her in. Let's see everyone if she can
handle if she can get in without any mess ups.
Let's watch Sataray's Daniel. Do I get an A plus?

(13:09):
Is it working? Is everything working? You're recording on your phone,
your headphones are in, we can hear you. I'm so
proud of you. It took seven seasons. It's happening. Yeah.
I've had a little bit of anticipatory technological anxiety. Um,
I felt like it was time that I did it right.

(13:29):
You nailed it. I know. I texted Sarah this morning.
I said, hey, just remember it's eleven am, and she said,
I'm anxious. It was like eight thirty. She's like, I'm
already anxious about being able to get on correctly. I'm
worried about the headphones situation. I was driving the kids
to school and I was like charging. Everything needs to
be charged. The computer needs to be charged, the headphones

(13:51):
need to be charged, my brain needs to be charged.
I am so proud of you. I'm so proud of you. Sorry,
it took seven running out of time, so we really
needed you to get there. Zac. There needs to be
no insult, no sly remarks. No I'm not. I love
you and I'm so happy your dear. And gosh, darn it,

(14:11):
are you beautiful in this episode of I mean you're
beautiful now on the zoom right now, you are so pretty.
I take I couldn't take my eyes off you. You
look so stunning in this episode. That is very kind.
I feel like I had a good director. Before we
get into the episode, let's get into some conversation. Yeah,
have you talked to my wife at all? No? Me? No,

(14:32):
recent since Firefly Lane. Yes, since Firefly Lane. Has come up.
I haven't. I got to see your wife recently a
couple months ago. She told me not to tell you,
but I'm gonna tell you anyway. She won't watch the
second season. She's like, I can't do it. I'm not
gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it. I'm not
gonna do it. I can't do it because it messes
her up too much. Oh, She's like, because yo, dude,

(14:55):
at the end of the at the end of the
second for people, I'm not gonna spoil it. But at
the end of this second season, some unfortunate stuff happens,
and you know, this is fears. This is one of
Casey's fears. This is a lot of woman's fears. And
oh my god, Oh my god, oh my god. When
I tell you the breakdown that happened and the hugging

(15:16):
that I had to do because it was gudge man,
all she could say is gutch, not gutch, not gutch.
For those I don't think the audience knows that that's
that's one of Sarah and the Casey's nicknames for each other.
Good yes, good. It started Um, it started out when

(15:38):
I was in high school, and it's sort of a
weird long story. It makes no sense, but good, um,
isn't gorgeous the beginning it was? It was yeah, sort
of a weird, oh weird version of of that. But
I um, well, you're welcome for the free hugs you got. Donald.
I know, Donald, you should be happy you got. These

(15:58):
were sobbing hugs kind of thing. Doesn't like them because
he couldn't turn them into sexual Yes, this wasn't the
type of hug that turned the kind of hug reverse
cow girl. This was the oh my god, ridiculous. Weren't
things turning to reverse Colgar? Okay, I'll try and do

(16:23):
something next that can be yes, whatever whatever show you
do next, Sarah, can you make sure fans in this
house we're fan there's some fans in this house. There's
some fans in this house. We love you over here,

(16:46):
and so anything you do we watch. You know this.
I love you guys. And that has been fun about
like finally being able to like fly and travel again
over the past a little bit. As I've got to
see you guys. I think we're wearing the same sweatshirt, Bran,
are you wearing Aviator Nation? The shirt is oh my god,
and sweatpants my favorite brand. That's not that's not a sponsor. Guys,

(17:08):
I just love them. They're so cozy Aviator Nation. I
was talking to a friend of mine who knows someone
who works there, and they said it's so soft because
they washed it twenty times first. So there's why. Oh
there you go, so when you get it it's clean. No,
it's so actually soft and cozy. On this one called
the Ninja that has this front thing. You see it,

(17:30):
and I have like it in every color. I don't
have that one, Sarah. They might have this in Vancouver.
Do you have it in black? You should wear it
in black. It's probably best in black. Why, of course,
because it's the Ninja. Oh no, I haven't. I have
it in all sorts of other collies, Sarah. Let's get
into the episode and Donald, it was written by Mark Stegment.

(17:50):
It was directed by a young wait breep. Before we
get into the episode, should we quickly discuss the other
show that we all just watched. Oh, Donald didn't watch it,
but I love No we haven't. Um please talk about
shrinking because I couldn't get but Joelle, you watched it, right,
I watched the first episode. I watched the first episode
with us, Stephanie. We haven't watched the other two yet, Okay, Joel,

(18:12):
you love it right? I love it a lot that
Jessica Williams so good. Sorry, Oh my god. I loved
it so fucking much. I would like to sit all
day in my house, in my house and just watch
it over the episodes. See what I'm saying. I told you,
I told you. See shrinking the movie is what I'm

(18:33):
talking about. Donald. Just to catch Sara up, Donald is
saying he's not gonna wait until you can binge the
whole thing. He's not gonna watch till you binge the
whole thing. So he's dying on that hill even though
it's his favorite movie star and his favorite comedy writer.
Is well, what I actually next season still do the

(18:55):
same thing. Sorry, Sorry, Sarah, Sarah, I'd be amazing. Denzel
came on as a patient to Harrison. Oh my god,
all right, go ahead, sorry, make it happened, Bill, Make
it happen, Bill, make it happens. Look ahead. I loved
it so much. I thought the whole cast was phenomenal,
every single one of them. I think it's my favorite

(19:18):
thing that Chris has ever done. I thought she told
y'all I told y'all. Didn't I tell you? Sarah did
not tell me? You? Remember you did tell me? Remember
who had dinner? Remember christ Remember what I told you?
Did I tell did? I did? I not tell you? Did?

(19:38):
Audience here he's standing up and yelling into them, like, um,
but he did tell me. If you're confused, audience, I
showed Donald my director's cut of episode eight out of context,
then filled him in on backstory, and he loved it.
And he was like, holy shit, Christa is crushing and
that's how he knows that. Okay, sorry, now scrush when

(20:01):
she says say it not everyone, here's a fucking idiot
at a girl, and like Joel was saying, I mean,
Jessica Williams was so good. I mean there was one
line where she is talking to Um Harrison and Jason
Siegel about Harrison Ford's daughter and she says, uh, you know,

(20:24):
tell us about your daughter. He says she lives in Connecticut.
And the way she delivers, Wow, it's like she's in
the room with Jessica Williams is a real delivery. Was
so good. Oh it was. I loved it. I loved
everything about it, and I thought, it's like it captures
like Bill always does this so well where you're laughing
out loud and then all of a sudden you notice

(20:45):
is like a tear. Yeah, so there you go. Even
Canadians love it. Everybody check it out. It's on Apple.
There's four episodes up now, so check it out and
you're gonna love it. There's a lot of Scrubs people
in it. Yes, like okay, okay, we love you when
we love plugging shrinking, but we should get into the

(21:06):
television show Scrubs and a very special episode. I have
not seen this, as I imagine you guys haven't since
uh since it aired. But it's just so fun to
watch it, and I had forgotten that it does that.
It's so clever in the writing, bouncing back and forth
between the hospital and the fantasies, the princess part. That

(21:27):
was some of the ways that that was done with
the writing and the director, uh did some interesting made
some interesting choices. Are you trying to fish for these compliments? No? No, no,
I'm trying to just say object because this was probably
the highest level. You know, you've gotten probably the biggest
Scrubs episodes of directors. I did because Bill Bill trusted me.

(21:52):
But it started off with him being competitive and being like,
you want to direct, you direct this, and he gave
me like that huge one where you go on the
Quest for Heather Graham and that was like so hard.
And then and then it became like he really liked
you know, then we then he really trusted me and
he would give me these big ones. Um. But this
was I think the biggest one we ever did by far.
And then this in the musical. This in the musical,

(22:12):
I think this the most cranes. Yeah, I think this
wouldn't cost way more than the musical. No, I just
meant big in terms of effort put into it, you
know what I mean? And money wise, this was definitely
the biggest budget one. I'm sure absolutely well, the more money,
the bigger the budget, the bigger the scope, and the
bigger the scale, right usually right, So I thought the
effects for whatever year it was, it must have been,

(22:33):
what year was it, joel um whatever, right now it
looked really good. I think for for for they looked
pretty good for two thousand and eight. The whole episode
is great. It's really clever. Man. You nailed it when
you said clever. It's really clever. Yeah, so it's an
homage the Princess Bride most of you, I'm sure, no,
but that's a wonderful movie that we're where a grandfather

(22:56):
I believe, is telling a story to h grandson. Um,
so we do the same thing with Cox talking to
his son and telling him a bedtime story. And so
just to set it up, we're in the ICU and uh,
Doug says something to Doug's very inappropriate. Doug is very inappropriate.

(23:20):
He's you keep wheeling him and all keep wheeling him out. Yes,
that's what he says. Was he's wheeling a corpse out
in front, in front, in front of an old in
front of an old man as he's being pushed into
the Yeah, Doug's not very appropriate. I think it's safe
to say neither is the Todd. But neither is the Todd. Yes.
So then we learned the Turk and Carler are kind

(23:40):
of becoming a little bit of a know it all
couple now that they got the parent thing dial. They're
like they're they're always arm in arm and they're always
being know it alls together, and they brags happened Turk
Braggs that they stocked up on baby oil, lotion and diapers.

(24:01):
Do you feel like that when you're out with your
couple of friends, like when you're out with Carrie and
Jess or when you're out with me in case, No,
But I know nothing, So it's not like I always
say it's funny for me, because all I've done is
train a dog, So I'm like, I know nothing. The
only thing I contribute is this is what worked for
my dog. Parents always look at you like you motherfucker.

(24:24):
Your dog isn't crying for hours straight at night. But anyway,
that Todd said, after Church suggests brags about how they
stocked up on baby oil, lotion and the diapers, that
Todd says, why is there a party this weekend? And
then everyone freezes, Yes, with photod If we didn't move

(24:48):
and stayed very quiet, he'd eventually get confused and leave. Now,
mind you guys, this is the top surgeon in the hospital. Yes,
and he's baffled by us all freezing. He doesn't know
what to do. Yes, but but he'll cut you open
real right right. Yeah, we all freeze and he doesn't

(25:09):
and he doesn't know what He's so baffled that he
just walks out, and then Cox continues like, all right,
we're back, right, Keith is back? Now, how does this happen?
And Kelso's chief again? How does this happen? Thing? The
chief thing was an out of order thing, I think
related again to the strike and maybe the show ending.

(25:29):
So yeah, that is a bit of a fuck up
in terms of that's just I know, and this I
don't think it was meant to go in this order.
But anyway, yeah, so Kelso is back to being chief,
even though we know he's not anymore. Um, I thought
I saw a funny little with Easter egg. Donald is
probably not a really strict but do you as Kelso
is yelling at everyone to not work beyond twelve hours?

(25:51):
Deontay is in the background. Yes, And do you remember
the Deontay story that he he he worked so many
hours once he never told the ads that he was
still on the clock. No, that was me that did that,
bumb but tell, well, tell the story. I just remember
that there was a crazy thing about Deontay staying way
too many hours and getting paid and maybe he got
paid too for it. But I once worked for twenty

(26:15):
four hours. Deontay must have rode that way with you, buddy, Yes,
because we were working night shoots, but there was two units,
and night shoots kind of rolled over into day shoots.
And instead of complaining and being like, yo, I've been

(26:36):
working for over sixteen hours, I saw the silver lining
because some of it was downtime too. I was like,
let's see how far I could stretch this out, because
I'm now at the point where this check is gonna
be massive. So I took a couple of naps in
my dressing room and just collected money. But I remember,

(27:01):
what do you call it a drifting and in cycling
when you're behind the someone. Is that what it's called. Yeah,
So Deonte just drifted behind you and collected his version
of that check. And I remember, obviously the eighties aren't
gonna yell at you, or maybe they did. Maybe Randall
yelled at you. Dam Randall, not that he had any
footing to stand on because it wasn't your fault, was

(27:21):
like this will never ever. He got real freaking like
African American movie dramatic, this will never well. All I
remember is the eighties yelled at Deonte, and I just
thought it was a funny thing because of all people

(27:42):
of all the background performers to be in the shot,
as Kelso's yelling at everyone to dot dare work over
twelve hours. Deonta's in the back nodding his head, which
um okay, so uh Ted describes. Is asked to describe
what happens in a courtroom and he says that quote

(28:06):
the law is wearing black robes and white wigs, and
Kelsel says that's england ted the fact that he's a
lot of these people are able to hold jobs. And

(28:26):
then he's like, are you sure? Yeah? Are you sure? Now?
Millian and Keith Sarah, what's happening here? You're alternating between
name calling and he's pleased to get back together. Yeah, so,
I guess Keith and I had broken up and he's
treating me respectfully in the hospital and then he goes

(28:47):
outside to sob Yeah, well, I understandably devastated. This is
an absolutely well he lost Sarah chalk, I get it now.
This is this is Elliott read well both. This is
some thing that I must have happened out of order two,
I think obviously, because I don't think, well, it happened
at the beginning of the season, right, It wouldn't be
revising probably wouldn't be revisiting Keith if this wasn't a

(29:09):
bit out of order. It happened in the beginning of
the season for sure. Yeah you know why? Also Donald, Phazon,
because we're talking about the almost kiss that ended season six. Yes, right,
and then I guess because of the strike, they just
wanted this to be placed where it was finale. I

(29:30):
have to ask Bill, um, but it was a do
you want to do an ask Bill like the old
school days? Joe. Yeah, Bill's busy, Bro, He's so busy,
He's so busy. If we're lucky, let's try, Let's try.
Let's try. Bill. This is us, Sarah, Donald, Joel and
Danal the original three. Can you explain because we're only

(29:50):
guessing why the We know it has somebody do with
the writers strike, But why is this Princess Bright episode
mean to be the last one when chronologically it feels
like it was meant to go earlier. Kelso is still
the chief of Medicine. We're discussing the kiss that almost
happened that ended season six. Where was this intended to go?
In the season seven storyline? Hey Zach, Hey Donald, Hey Sarah?

(30:16):
Thanks for doing my uh podcast. I appreciate it five six, seven, eight.
That better have happened. That stuff still needs to happen. Anyways, Look,
I really appreciate the question shrinking. It comes out once
a week only, so yeah, we released the first two
the first weekend and then one comes out every week.

(30:40):
I think it comes out sometimes like Thursday night at
midnight East Coast time, but it really comes out Friday
side Sunday, and then it's ten episodes, so we'll do
it that way. Besides that season seven of Scrubs. Look,
here's the scoop. It was a writer's strike and I
wasn't allowed to be an editing, and luck we had

(31:03):
most of the episodes done that we had finished, and they,
you know, I think NBC just figured they were never
airing the show again. So that was it. And the
closest thing they had to a seasoned finale, you know,
or a series finale, was our Princess Bride episode, so
they juggled him around. And I was not a fan

(31:27):
because it made no sense because Kelso got you know,
left his job and then was back and then left again.
It was all very weird, but that was a product
of the strike. And more importantly though, ABC and Disney
was so cool because if you guys remember, they let
us pick up the eighth season of the show and
it changed networks over to ABC. That mattered to me

(31:50):
a lot because we always knew what the finale was,
we just did not have it shot when there was
a writer strikes season seven. That is all. See you guys,
miss you guys, piece out. Thank you Bill for taking
the time. We know you're very busy. And no, this
is not your podcast, so whatever jokes you made that
we're about this being your podcast are not correct. And yes, Bill,

(32:14):
I would love to be in the next episode. You've
got a lot of balls. Yeah you got. I think
when Bill listens to this, the people that are gonna
get arcs and shrinking are going to be the ones
who are actors and who've watched the show, Sarah, don't
you think that's probably the case. I don't think you
guys really believe that Bill's gonna put you in the

(32:35):
show because you watched it. Um. I think that he
would be more inclined to put us on the show
that we honor his work. Yeah, I'm gonna watch it.
I'm just waiting for yes, we know, we know. I'm
just putting it out there. Daniel, what was the genesis

(32:56):
of you on or me? Oh? That's Daniel's catchphrase. That's
when and how did you about? Where did it come from?
Where did it start? How to start? Um? I'm trying
to remember. I think I heard it, if I'm being honest,
and this is totally pleasing to me. I heard it
in a video game and I was like, that's great.
I'm with that. Oh, so it's something you use in
your real life, not just on um. Honor me? Is

(33:19):
something you say in real life. It's his catch phrase.
I know, real I know. But Gary Coleman didn't say
with chum out willis in his real life. Well, God
rest his soul. I don't want to talk to day.
But there is a possibility that Gary Coleman might have said,
what you're talking about somebody? You think the outside of
doing different strokes, there is a do you think do

(33:41):
you think say that's what I'm talking about? Ji White?
Do you think Julial White in his real life said
did I do that? I bet you Julia White after
serving somebody on the basketball court and driving by him
after the motherfucker was talking all of that ship and
laid him. I don't believe when did I That would

(34:04):
be amazing. If that we need to have another segment
called asked Jalil White, where we should we? You know?
For real? Man, I love that brother, like I don't
talk about him enough. I talk about du lay a lot.
That's another brother that I really really really enjoy having
conversation with and talking to. Jalil has if he never
watched we would have him on. If you ever watched Scrubs,

(34:27):
we could have him on. That would be awesome. He's one.
He was actually one of the kings of freaking sitcoms
back when I was a kid. You know what I mean?
He killed it. I mean, even though you know Racle
became sort of a joke, that young man came on
that show as a guest not even star, like a
supporting guest spot, and then took over the whole fucking show. Yes,

(34:51):
absolutely that. Yeah, the show is not about him. It
was failing. The show was failing. He came on, the
ratings went up, and then the show was like, we
gotta get this guy back on the evolution the show
right there. Then he became the sitcom version of the
guest star. The guest star version that he played is

(35:13):
like the evolution of Urkle is, Like he went from
becoming like this really really like he was a smart
nerd at school who had this crush on Laura to
this genius who could create the arkle bot, like yo,
for real, man, the evolution of this character up he
created a potion that Jacqueline hide potion where there was

(35:35):
Stefan and Steven Van was swab and cool and then
Jalil plays both of them like masterfully man like dude,
this dude, like for real, for real man, I'm gonna
give your flowers. Jalil, you're one of my favorites. Menu
you kadeem for real, for real. You showed a lot
of us when we were coming up how it's done.

(35:56):
So if you do listen to fake Doctor's real friends, Jalil,
you deserve that for real straight up. Oh there you go.
I never there's applause, Daniel unders applause. I got it,
all right, that's enough about your little white Um So wait, Zach,
what would your catchphrase be? Eagle? Would you say? Um?
I guess if j G had a catchphrase, it would

(36:18):
probably be eagle, right, Donald, Yeah, Joel. Yeah, I don't
know if there's a Donald's is um, that's what I'm
talking about. That now, that's what I'm talking Now, that's
what I'm talking about. Yours is frick. Yeah, yours is
frick double frick with on a stick, frick on a
stick with a brick, frick frick on a stick with
a brick or maybe janitor. Okay, we're gonna take a

(36:44):
break and we come back. We're gonna talk about all
the artwork and creativity from our amazing crew that went
into making the Princess Bride episode right back for you,
and we're bad. I thought we were going to take
a break too. I thought we were gonna get chatting

(37:06):
hang out on the break. No, No, we don't do that, Sarah.
But thanks for revealing that to the audience. Sarah, you
thought that we were going to spend the commercial time
and chatting like he live. I've a lot of stories
for you, guys, Donalds on the laughing let's kid, Sarah,

(37:27):
we can talk about what sea but we're gonna see
a quote unquote break, but we'll let the audience listen. Okay,
we're on a break, Sarah, what's up? Oh are you
look great. Um, I don't. Actually, actually usually it is coold.

(37:51):
I have a bit of that's where my is this
bit frostbite on my face. Tied it a frostbite right here.
It was so cold I skip three days in a
row and I should have gone in from breaks. Were
you a whistler or was it whistler? And it was
just like bonkers cold and I was of this chunk
of frostbay right here. Why don't you have a mask on?

(38:13):
I did? I had like so many layers. Bootstaters were
going everything. I'm coming up to Van Groovy in late April.
If you want to hang out, hang out. We can't
ski because well actually there could be a bit of
skiing left. Well, if you happen to be around, we
can have dinner and hang out. You're going in April,
end of April. I'm going up for a few days

(38:34):
to Van Groovy. I do love me some Dan Groovy.
Come Donald come end of aprils when it's really pretty
up there too, right sir? Oh, it's so it's always pretty.
What are you talking about? Well, I don't like known
like it's a rain It's a rainforest, bro, It's not
a rainforest. It is it is, it is. But when
the sun is out at van Groovy, it's it's mazing.

(38:57):
There's nothing pretty. That's why it's all so green. Because
the rains all the times. You have to put up
with the rain. But I like the rain, I guess
because I grew up in it. I don't mind. Like
you know, when you grow up here, you have to
go outside when it's pouring rain. Otherwise you would never
leave your house. You just get used to doing everything
you always do in the rain. Yeah, well you don't
mind it, all right, Sarah, I'm gonna I'm gonna pretend.

(39:18):
I'm gonna tell the audience that we're coming back from
our pretend break. Now, okay, Now what you're gonna do is, Sara,
you're gonna win. Donald, you're gonna say, and we're back, ready,
and we're back. You're ready, Sarah, And well let's star
Donald and Saray you do it and go alright, audience, audience,

(39:38):
I'm so sorry you didn't get to hear that conversation, audience,
so that we had during the during our real break,
laughed and cried. What we do is we take a
We actually take a break. That's the length of the advertisers.
I knew it. I knew that's how we did. Wait,
you guys, we gotta get into this magical fairytale. So um, okay,

(40:02):
well it takes a long time to get into the
fairy tale on the show too, Like I knew it
was a fairytale episode, and after a while I'm like, yeah,
when does it become the fairytale episode? Okay, Well, let's
just run through a couple of things that are happening
in the real world. Um, Jad says, I tried to
kiss her, and he's he's no one's there to see,
what the hell face? So he carries it around over
to doctor Cox all the way of the doctor's lounge.

(40:23):
He's like, what do you want? And you know, we're
sending up all the storylines that are going to cross
back and forth between the princess world and the hospital world,
the most important of which is that Sarah has a patient.
Elliott has a patient that she cannot diagnose, and um,
there's we should also talk about the interns and how
they're playing that game where yes, like jeopardy, Um, you

(40:46):
know named the name the diagnosed the patient, right, And
Jad's in the room and he and and you know,
he's explaining to Cox that like one of them is
Wilson's disease, and now other one is like one what
was the one that JD knew? I don't remember, but
you know they're talking about gloating and JD's like, I
don't gloat, and then he guesses one writing he gloats,

(41:08):
and then I do this really horrible, what annoying thing
is happening? Now? Yeah? And I do this really horrible
accent attempted because you're supposed to do it in a
foreign accent, and I do a version of like a
horrible Australian accent. Throw another shrimp on the bobby and
I'm like, wait, that's Irish. So JD is not very
good with accents. We established, and then we also get

(41:29):
the Jordan and Cox's nanny's mom died, so Jordan has
been having to spend time with her child because she's
been trying to avoid talking to the nanny at all
costs and comforting her. So Perry thus starts to tell
a story and it cuts from He starts talking about

(41:52):
the hospital and it shows me in a yellow Cando
hat and I say this, this hat make me look
fly and then she says, no known hospital story. It's
a real fairy tale. And so then it cuts to uh, Donald,
and excuse me, Turk and Carla are Turla? Which is
that have been fused together at marriage? Yes, Sarah is

(42:13):
a gorgeous princess. Yea. And JD is the fool and
he an idiot and he said, and he's got the
bells fool thing on his head, and he goes, does
this hat make me look fly using? It jingles when
I shake it? And that's I have a question. Yeah,
is if in like medieval language like an apostrophe, then

(42:37):
because wouldn't he have said does this hat make me
look fly? It? It jingles when I shake it? Perhaps
I don't. I think, Yeah, it's a good stonor question.
I'm sure many people that are high listening have the
same question. Um, we have to make sure we play
to the high audience. So Donald represents you, guys, Well,

(42:59):
I've always represented you. I want you to know that, yes,
for all seven seasons. If you're a stoner who listens
to this Donald's questions, represent you, guys. Was a stoner humor? Yeah,
if you're not a smoker, if you're not a smoker.
You can still appreciate it. You can appreciate on many levels.
Doctors appreciate it, kids could appreciate it. Well, let's not

(43:22):
bring kids and well, teenagers. It's a little maybe a
little r rated for kids. Kids, thank you. Well, let's
say just I know my son's asking if you can
watch it, and I'm like, well you, it's sort of
like there's no difference between him watching that a lot
of the other comedies he's watching. It's just different when
it's your mom in a broad underwear. Yeah. I'd about
to say, your oldest sir thirteen just turned thirteen. I

(43:46):
don't think you should watch it. I don't think you
should watch it. He's a teenager. No, but I mean
his mind a lot of sex on the show. I said.
There's select episodes I said I would through and there
like this episode, for example, would be a great one
for him to watch. Yes, this one would be. The

(44:08):
musical would be a great one from to watch anyone
where you're not like, he's gonna be like, my friends
keep telling me about all of this other stuff. Though
there's a pizza episode. I heard about the clock pizza.
There's a pizza clock episode. Mom, what's that about That
sounds appropriate? Mama? What's inappropriate about pizza clock? Okay, So

(44:34):
I just want to give a shout out to Cabinet McMullen,
our production designer, Carrie Bennett, our costume designer, and John Inwood,
our cinematographer, because those departments and including hair and makeup,
just an extraordinary job with this um. Everybody, all of
these costumes you see, many of them carry made these

(44:54):
incredible sets of Cabinot built or the big wide shots
like in the town square that opens the sequence that
was on the Universal back lot, and it wasn't even
actually like you know, an old you know, ye old
town thing. It was a section of Universal that was
not dressed like that. So all of cabin and his
team did all of that to make it look like that.

(45:17):
M So, just a lot of money and time and
love and creativity was put into this episode. Kudos to you,
zach Man. You found some really good shots out of
all of this stuff. Thank you Phil too, you found
some really beautiful shots. The shots with Sam and Neil
were amazing walking off intives but they're walking away and
the whole camera shaking. Yeah, amazing man, Yeah, thank you,

(45:38):
thank you. I put a lot of love into this
and and I really haven't seen it in so long,
so I was so happy that it held up. And
and I remember at the time thinking, oh, I hope
these effects are good enough. You know that the sort
of NBC budget level effects were good enough. And I
think they looked pretty good. This many years later, they
looked amazing. And how remind me how you guys shot

(45:59):
Turk and Turl? How did you guys shoot that? Again?
We had to do a green screen. There was like
a dude that looked like Finesse Mitchell. I forget his name,
but he looked just like Finesse. Was yeah, he was
the body. I thought it was Finesse and I ran
up on Finesse. I was like, yo, is that you
no anyway? So um, And then I did a green

(46:20):
screen and Judy did a green screen just their heads
yet but I don't know. I don't know if we
ever shot any of the stuff together either. Then a
lot of it was shot in the hospital, where it
was like we didn't just shoot it in one day. Also,
it was like a couple of days too for different things.
All their heads were everything with them, and their heads
was on green screen and um and the body person

(46:44):
being the body probably had a green screen mask. I
think I worked two days. You guys were that was
my That was That was what I was upset about,
because you guys got to be on set and live
in this world and stuff like that. And Judy and
I were in the hospital where we all worked. Yeah,
and all they did was hung a green screen behind
us and painted our faces. That I remember that being

(47:06):
me being upset about that. Yeah, I get it because
this was such a fun adventure. How about Neil as
the giant. That's a lot of freaking makeup. I wonder
if he liked that. I wonder if he likes sitting
in the chair. Well, if it's just for one episode,
I'm sure it's fine. If you're won one of those
star truck shows and you gotta do that every week,
I'm sure it's tough. I'm not gonna say no names,

(47:27):
but I had a conversation with somebody who did an
episode of a sci fi show where he had to
just one episode and he had to wear the prosthetics
similar to what Neil did, and he said he would
never do the show again. And I was like, but
it's so awesome, it's such a great show. He was like, Nope,
not if I got to wear that. What about think

(47:48):
of like Eddie Murphy in the Clumps when he's playing everybody.
I mean, I can't fathom how long I must take,
you know what I mean? Yeah? Especially, yeah, No, I
don't Jim Carrey in all the times he's done stuff
like that like that is so much time in the chair.
But wouldn't you want to find out at least at
least one time? No, wouldn't you want to try it
at least? No? I would have been decide for yourself?

(48:11):
Are you kidding me? If if I was on the
level that someone would make a Clump style movie with
me playing the six parts, it would be a dream.
I mean, you'd suffer for your art to do it.
But I'm just saying it's Think how I don't know
what zone Eddie must go into, but doing that every
single morning for months and months and months, you gotta

(48:32):
I mean, obviously someone scene has to take more than
a week to do, Like a scene, oh dude, those
Clumps scenes where he's playing everyone, that probably took a month, right, amazing? Um?
But anyway, so Neil looks great. As the giant alone goes,
why is this town so dirty? It's well irritable towns
woman of color. She accuses him of eating babies and

(48:56):
he says, I don't eat babies, I eat toddlers. And
then Doug comes up quick on the lips, lifetime on
the hips, right. But then Doug, who is the sort
of dead body collector who I did not recognize. I
was like, who the fuck is that? Yeah, it's like
to bring out your dead, bring out your dead thing. Yeah,

(49:20):
money python, bring out your dead. He comes up and
he's like, I thought you said she'd be dead already,
and the janitor says, come back later, do you have
any babies? Todd That was cute, And then we meet
the village idiot. No, it was it was I don't
know the keut's the wrong word. It was funny. Um.

(49:41):
Then we meet the village idiot, who is played by JD.
Slash Sack Braff and m. He is so enamored with
the gorgeous princess and he brings her a fish that
he's saved from drowning, and the fish is obviously dead,
and he said he's tired now, but earlier he was
dance and all around. And then I make like a

(50:02):
fish that's brouncing on land because I'm an idiot. That's real.
That's probably the most idiotic things. And then we fight
ever fantasized in his life, But it's not him fantasizing it.
This is all the story through doctor Cox's right, Donald,
we must remember that this is all told true Cox
his eyes. That's why it's safe to say. He finds

(50:24):
Elliott beautiful and not that bothers him. Really, he thinks
Jad's the biggest idiot in the world. He thinks that
Turk and Carla have become a know it all monolith.
What else does he think? He thinks that the janitor
is some giant freak. Yeah, and heet like eighteen abs

(50:46):
on his armor when Cox comes in, Oh yeah, of
course he thinks that. He thinks that he is the
most amazing, handsome savior. And night yes, it arrives on
a beautiful horse. So um so, Sarah, Elliott and I
the Idiot are discussing who's it's too tried to kiss who?

(51:08):
Remember this is a pickup from end of season six
when we almost kissed It was your royal tongue that
tried to store my mouthcastle, Castle. That's funny. I believe
it was your royal tongue trying to storm my mouthcastle.

(51:31):
So funny. And then she's yelling at me and she's
she says something about her bosoms moving up and down.
There's a lot of bosom talk in this episode, man,
a lot of Like bosoms are a part of a
good fairy tale, right, a hefty bosom. I have to listen.
All I know is Turk rubs on his wife's bosom.

(51:54):
That was so funny. But you know what I guess,
because it's his wife, It's okay. I don't no, man,
Like I've seen that meme that's out there right now
where the women are doing what the husbands do to
them when they're like bent over and you know, standing
in the mirror and stuff. Have you seen this meme? No,

(52:14):
So I'm a perpetrator of this. I have when my
wife is you know, looking in the mirror, brushing her teeth,
come behind her and fondled her, or when she's bent over,
pretended to hump on her or something like that, or
step my finger in her butt, you know what I mean.
Like I've done stuff like this to her. There's a

(52:35):
meme out of wives doing that to their husbands now
and their husbands not appreciating it at all the pending. No,
they're doing it for real. They're setting up the camera
and the husband is freaking washing the dishes, and the
wife will come behind them and rub on his chest
and I'm like, don't do that to me. Come on,

(52:56):
you know, like pissed off, Like it's really cute. But
and I do that all the time. That's what it
sounds like. When Turk rubs on Carla's well, he grabs
Carla's breast and it's their breast. It's it's actually their breastplates, turlos.
He grabs Turlo's shared breastplate. Now on her side, there's

(53:17):
a metal breast on his side. It's just a hectoral. Yes.
But while he's rubbing, and he goes that's what I'm
talking about catchphrase and he uses a friend. Um. It
was very funny. When Keith arrives on horsebackers the key
to the chassis belt. Now you don't mind, I'd like

(53:39):
to get the key back to my chest. Did he built?
And then this is going to make so many things
so much easier. Yeah, And then we see the chassis
belt drop to the ground because poor princess has been
living with that on. It was steaming. It wasn't steaming.
It may have been steaming because it was cold and
it was metal. I don't Wasn't it so hot when

(54:02):
we filmed the memory correct? Was it so boiling hot
and we were in all those layers? I feel like
it was very hot. I don't remember. I don't remember.
That's probably true. How funny is it when Travis arrives
in that big He is so funny. He's so funny
in that. I laughed out loud when he comes up.

(54:24):
It's like, Um, what's that character in Shrek that has
that hair cut? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, He's like he's
got that hair By the way, I wanted Puss. What
about Prince Charming in part two? Though? What was that
same thing? Right? Who was just Prince Charming? But yeah,
they had a similar cut. I watched Puts Some Boots
two because flows in it and she's Goldilocks. It's really good.

(54:45):
I don't know if you guys have all watched it,
but it's so well done. We saw it in the
movie theater. Have you seen it, Joel? I haven't seen
it yet, but I've heard lovely things everything about It's amazing.
The script and the story is so clever. But I
think it'll be scared to some kids, though your kids
scared all No, my kids weren't scared of it at all.

(55:05):
Actually they you know, we it's a cartoon. I can
explain that jump scares are something that's new for them.
Though Roadblocks and they're jump scares are a problem because
some of the games that are on Roadblocks. Listen, guys,
I love you because you take my kid away from

(55:26):
me sometimes when I just want to fucking do shit.
But this fucking him waking up in the middle of
the night because of these jump scares or because of
this stuff on this game is not all right with me.
So you know what I mean? Like, do adults play Roadblocks?
I don't know what it is. Absolutely adults play Roadblocks.
Anybody can play Roadblocks. It's it's one of those games

(55:46):
where you can do anything. It's like mine. Do you
ever twitch on robot for me? Stright? My kids love it.
Your kids love it. They love it? Okay, all right,
So Turlo, we talked about that. Now we also know
that Turla is having their time of the month, and

(56:08):
Turk of Turlo says, our time of the month. Is
that why I keep crying for no reason? I didn't
ask for this. So Turkey's having his period. Okay, we're

(56:29):
back on. We realized that Jade's hair is a combination
of horse maneuver, river mud and more horse maneuver. Now,
but I want to go back to I want to
go back to what he said to the princess when
she said something about her boobs. Oh, yes, yes, I
want to rest my face on them, and what you said.

(56:55):
She says, I'm breathing, and he goes, right, right, right,
that's what he says about her boobs going up and down. Right,
But then your boobs were going up and down. Yeah,
I'm breathing, and he goes, I know, can I rest
my face upon them and ponder what you've said? Everybody
loves boobs. Donalds a lot of boob jokes. Sasha is

(57:18):
a mule, Yes, Sasha is a donkey or an ass
or a mule. And the makeup on Ted who's a hunchback,
that was incredible. Oh my god, John, oh my god.
He looked amazing. And Sam Lloyd is just so great

(57:40):
in this episode. He's always great and he says, my
master approaches preferre prepare for his untamed vengeance. And there
we meet Ozlek, who's obviously Kelso spelled backwards and he
is the evil what is he? A wizard? I guess?
So with the power? Did you ever see um, did

(58:03):
you ever see Who's the movie when Mark Zinger back
in the day where he was the Beast the Beast Master.
Did you ever see that? Okay, so in the Beast Master.
For those of you who did see that, and do
remember it. Remember the guys that would freaking wrap you
around you with the cloak on, and then when they
and then freaking they would kill you and devour you.
And then then when they removed the cloak from around you,

(58:25):
you were dead. You were like bones and stuff like that.
That's the power that Kelso's wizard. That's his wizard power.
Like he can can appear out of nowhere, and that's
his freaking power. He's like got the freaking cloak of
darkness and it takes you to this realm and all
of that stuff. That was pretty cool. Like there's a
lot of listen, as much as you want to say,

(58:46):
this is, you know, just a great, great written comedy.
There's a lot of of dungeons and dragons and backstory
put into this. So maino Marshes is princess probably, but
of course it's fairy tales in general. And I guess
you said you would say dungeons and dragons and stuff
like that, But kudos to the writers, aren't this because

(59:08):
that turns into a great joke. Like the question was,
where does everybody go when Kim's character wraps them up
and kills them? And what happens there? Like what what?
What is this power? And when he does it to
j D and Sarah it's really you know, it's like, oh,
is that how they're going to end this episode? That's
that's kind of a you know what I mean, because
there's no end in sight. We're all. I mean, it's

(59:28):
in the same as episode. It's amazing what he packed
into this episode. It's twenty two minutes long. I think,
how much happens in this episode, so the longer episode.
As I was watching it and then I checked the time,
and I was surprised. I was like, We've been a
lot of places. It's so there's so much packed in. Yeah,
it's twenty two minutes. It really let's segment. But also

(59:49):
whoever directed it really brought it, really brought it. Who
did actually this episode it's one of the best. Are
you being facetious? I'm not being facetious. I'm trying to
do Sorry, are you being facetious? Do you not know
who directed this episode of Chris? I know that it's
one of the best episodes we have. Are such a
good You're such a good actress. But ladies and gentlemen,
that's what that's how good an actress? Sorry, Sarah who

(01:00:11):
directed this episode, Zachary Israel Breath. I was hoping you'd
say somebody else, but yes, thank you, well, thank you.
So then we start doing this really cool. Then then
it really starts finding a flow of cutting back and
forth to the hospital and the fairy tale. And Kelso

(01:00:32):
has this thing, as we said that if you work
twelve hours, you're out, you're fired. Doug gets caught working
more than twelve hours. So he's just left a body
bag in the elevator and the door is closing on it,
and uh and and and and Kelso makes uh Ted
grab it, and Ted cracks his back and now he's
cleverly stuck in the position of the hunchback that he

(01:00:54):
plays in the fantasy. And now Turlok go into the
potion shop where we meet Fairy Todd Something. Oh my god,
that outfit is so now did they put him on yeah? Yeah,
is he sitting on something? No? No, he's on a

(01:01:16):
green screen in a full harness, like like people who
fly in movies. They didn't shrink him and make him fly. No,
we don't have that technology yet, Sarah. Um. No, So
we were truly hanging him by the you know, like
the he had. What they do is they put an
undervest on and they click in hanging cables to your shoulders.

(01:01:37):
So that's how he or maybe his waist. Um, that's why.
That's how he's And then we m you know, put
him on a green screen and put him into the scene.
And that's how you make a sprite? Is that what
he is? Well, the other kids later are what do
they call him? Would there wood nymphs? So I guess
he's a sprite? Is that what that is? Let's tinker Bell?

(01:01:57):
He's whatever, tinker Bell let tak bells a ry. I
don't know if he was. He calls himself a fairy
Todd Something right, But he's more like a sprite his power,
or more sprightly than like, he's more mischievous than fairy esque,
you know what I mean, Like at least Shakespeare. You know,

(01:02:19):
Puck is a sprite, but he serves the king of
the fairies. So yeah, but he's but Puck is full sized.
I thought fairies were tiny. I don't know for interpretation.
Um so turk led length the idiot JD the wand

(01:02:39):
and he uses it and gives himself a tail. Why
would like, you know what, listen to play with it
just for a little bit, but don't do nothun stupid.
Just because he's Turtler, Just because he's Turtla doesn't mean
that he doesn't love the JD. But Carla's there was

(01:03:03):
there when it happened. Well, you know, he slipped it.
You know, he's like, here, are gonna go in the
potion shop while Carlo's not looking. Hold on wand. By
the way, I was on I did Conan O'Brien's podcast,
um Audience checked that out. I think it comes out.

(01:03:23):
It comes out the week that my film comes out,
which is the twenty fourth I think of March. I
think it comes out of the twentieth or so. But Conan,
my point is, was so lovely about the show our
scrubs and loving it, but also specifically Donald about our
our friendship. And he really was very earnest. He wasn't
doing any sort of bit or anything. He was just
I just he was like, I'm just so he goes

(01:03:46):
I love those commercials of the team of commercials, and
he was like, I gotta be honest. I'm not being
like this is gonna sound cheesy, but that love actually spoof.
Every time I came on, I found it kind of moving.
I thought it was like so sweet and anyway, he
gave us lots of love love it was. It was Sarah,
no offense. It was specifically really about me and Donald

(01:04:06):
and in our promance it's it's I. I was completely
um aware of that. It's fine, not none taken, none taken,
note taken Conan. I'm sure that Conan loves you, but
he in this instance, he was specifically talking about, well,
I agree with Conan on this one. You should see
his podcast set up. Oh my goodness, Daniel, he shamed

(01:04:27):
you all. All Daniel would need I had if I
had the freaking he shames you button, that's what it
would be. Daniel. No, he didn't change the ship. I
don't think it's just Daniel fa No, it's about budget.
I think Conen must have the biggest budget in podcast
world because it was like going into the Howard Stern Show.

(01:04:49):
I mean bigger than da No Dax is. When I
did Dax it was just two chairs above his garage.
I don't know if it's changed, but this was like
a full real studio with robotic cameras and like a
staff of like a talk show sized staff. It was
the real real Did you have to do a pre interview? No,

(01:05:10):
but it was just like budget hashtag budget the dream.
But I feel like, I mean, don't you guys prefer
just being like just doing it from your Yeah. I
don't want to change the thing. I do wish. I
do wish it's impossible, but I see people that have
shot their podcast so well, and I wish that we
had always done that because we could put it on

(01:05:30):
YouTube eventually, but we never really got around to that.
I like what we have. My first question is the
best time to Planet Apple Orchid was twenty years ago.
The second best time is today. We have those cameras
to shoot it. Well, we have well Donald doesn't uses Donald,
Donald uses his for animation. We doesn't change the fact
that we have it. You and Joel aren't doing Joel,

(01:05:50):
you're not on your fancy camera. No, I could plug
it in. It's set up. Well, maybe we'll do it
for season eight and nine. You guys should, because you're
gonna do this podcast forever and ever and ever of
all day. No, we're gonna do it live. Guys. We're
doing it live. That's what Sarah thinks, that we do
it live. Then we take ad breaks. Joel's always counting down.

(01:06:13):
Adds over three guys, adds over in three two an
you live. No, but we are going on tour, guys,
this isn't This is a fact. We are actually going
on tour. When are you going on tour? We'll have
to come with us. We're figuring it out. We're going
with us. Do you want in Vancouver? You must do
one in Vancouver. I'm not going to leave this conversation.
So you say you're gonna do one in Vancouver, But
then if you do it in Vancouver, you have to

(01:06:34):
be involved. If we do it in Vancouver, then Sarah
only does things in Vancouver. Her show was in Vancouver.
She won't leave, won leave you guys? Is next dinner
date will be in Vancouver? Yeah, I know that, I am.
I will know. I know that I will not see
Sarah unless she happens to be in Vancouver when I'm there.

(01:06:57):
That's not true. I've started to come to La sometime. Yeah,
but you do only hang out with Casey. You don't
hang out with us. Yeah, you know you long. I
wouldn't be one time, but you hung out with case
You hang out with Casey more than you hang out
with me. Yeah. Feelings are heard. Feelings also find me
on whistler. Yeah, you got a whistler if you want
to visit Sarah. Yes, do live, do live and do

(01:07:19):
one in Vancouver. When are you going to do your
life tour? You know yet? TB TBD, TBD. But we're
working on it right now. I could put I could
say that it's for sure, aren't It's on it's on Donald's.
It's on Donald's whiteboard. It's not on a whiteboard. This
is something that's actually in motion right now. Bro, Well
you can put it on the whiteboard still so you
can film that. We will film that. I'm just saying,

(01:07:40):
like I watch on you know, I'm sure if you
guys get these clips on Instagram and your feed that
are like podcast you know, clips where someone said something
really cool and you're like, wow, that's a cool quote
or something. And it was just on a podcast that
happens to be beautifully shot because it's also going on
YouTube and like that's the new trend. And there I was,
and Conan's like very fancy studio with robotic cameras, and

(01:08:03):
I'm like, I wish ours looked like this. But also,
we don't have nine do have it? We have Chico artist, Well,
you have Chico Artists. Hey, by the way, we haven't
given her a shout out for how good her video?
No doubt? Oh snap, Sarah, Now we got Sarah. Yeah,
Chico artist. Shit, Chico do me, do me, do me?
Do me? Whoa Sarah? I want to be part of

(01:08:28):
Chico Artists art. I know we demanded that she do
you I mean, give the woman something. I meant her
YouTube arts. Okay, I have to say it about Chico Artists.
You know what's amazing. You might not have noticed this,
and if you don't know, we're talking about this A
young woman on Instagram named Chico Artist, that's her handle,
and she does lip sync videos to the podcast. Do
you notice that each character, you guys, she's doing is
a single take it there's no editing, cuts, takes a

(01:08:53):
lot of products. Was watching the whole time. I was like,
she's not cutting. It's skilled. Yeah, that's right, it's skilled.
Artists want to we want to thank you for for
for putting in all the hard work. As always, we
like to challenge you. So boo tank forever, woo tank forever. Sarah,
do you want to make Chico artists say anything? Go
ahead and say it. Hmm. I want to do I'm

(01:09:14):
want to do. I'm doing a cheer dance Chico Artists.
So I'd like to see interpretations of what is happening.
What do you think I'm doing right now? Everybody everybody's like, yo, listen,
why don't you say something? Why don't you say something
like panics and starts dancing or freaking moving their body

(01:09:35):
or something like that, Chico Artists. Just so, just so
Chico Artist is able to do this. Sarah is acting
like a mine who's stuck in a small box. It
looks like a very small box that her upper body
is trapped in Well she was. She was acting like that.
And there was some hips, there was some hit movement,
Chico artists fall safety poo, Well there we go. There

(01:09:56):
were some Germans too, Sarah Deutsch. Okay, Chico artists. He
you were more than nuts, shah as I figured, Alice, Yeah,
there you go, cheek arts, Danel, do you want to
come through this time? Danel? All right, Daniel, do you
want to say the same thing? Yeah? You know it.

(01:10:16):
The last time my dad told me to speak any German,
he said, go up to this person, say sprek and
zee Deutsch. And I was like, okay, I got this.
I went up to that person, tapped him on the shoulder.
I went spooky Miluki. They were like, what I was
eight years old last time I tried to speak German, honor.
We weren't asking We weren't asking you to speak German, Daniel.
We were asking you if you wanted to redeem yourself. Yeah,

(01:10:38):
and you didn't. Well did Joel? How have you always
jumped to Daniel's defense so quickly? One because I love
him too, because is genuinely great. This is too much
for cheek artist to do so and cheeko artist and
the segment like this cheek artist. Imagine she pulls off

(01:11:02):
the bong and starts smoking. Well, cheega artists, you could
pull out a fake bong if you want. We don't
want to force the real bong into your hands. You
see her face machine that she was hilarious. Yeah, that
was beautiful. It was like one of those kids machines.
It was amazing. Already another break, Sarah, This is gonna

(01:11:22):
be a break. You can do whatever you want. It'll
be right and we're back. Sarah told a very long story.
Sarah told a crazy story. And I actually did did
chase down the garbage truck this morning because the compost,
it's composting. When it's compost, you can't leave it for

(01:11:44):
next for a week, So I was chasing. That was real.
Now I have a question when yeah, when it comes
to compost, how long is it supposed to take before
it turns into compost? One? And then two? Like, what
do you do with all of this shit liking stuff? Well,

(01:12:06):
we have weekly pickups, so you're not actually waiting for
it to turn into compost. I just heard the tu
and I went racing down the driveway. Danil's gonna have
the best answer for this at But in LA now
we're supposed to do this and it means putting like
food scraps in your green bin. Correct, yeah, correct. If
you contact La Sannoitation, you can go pick up a
free pail from them and they'll give it to you

(01:12:27):
and you just you know, take your food, you know,
your food waste, put it in the pail and then
put it in your green bin. That's what we're supposed
to do now. But isn't your food bin gonna isn't
a little pail gonna smell unless you're empty it every day.
It's an excellent points act. They recommend that you put
a plastic bag in there, but you don't throw out
the plastic bag into the green bin. If you have
biodegradable plastic bags, that's different, But otherwise, yeah, you could

(01:12:48):
put a paper bag in there. Yes, callin Sarah I Collins.
He's raising her hand, everybody, Yes, Sarah, I'm just trying
to understand this. So up until now, all of your
food scraps just went into the garbage. Yes, yeah, we're
into the garbage disposal. However you choose to do it.
I think that's most of the country. Right, Yeah, LA's trying.
Eli's trying to be progressive and say, now we're the

(01:13:09):
more progressive state in in uh just La California, Daniel,
I believe California. I think it's oh maybe, yeah, I
mean I just got a notification for La County, so
that's all I know. And some people have been composting
on their own for years. All of California is trying
to be green by thirty thirty thirty, by thirty thirty,

(01:13:29):
twenty thirty, we're trying to go green by thirty thirty five. No,
you know what I meant. I didn't you met. I
didn't know what you met you said thirty thirty thirty five.
I was trying to do it like that twenty thirty,
twenty thirty five, something like that. You can't hate me now,
but I won't stop now. You can't hate me now, Okay,

(01:13:54):
we stop now. Okay, So ferry time something, um turn
clothe the eighty of the wand um oh fairy. Todd says,
you know I have a big wand if you want
to hold it, and then he says banana hammock fairy five,
and then we cut back to reality and he says,
I love slapping people five, And so Elliott says, we

(01:14:17):
have to page him in the in the hospital world,
and then we cut before we before we go further,
Carla uses the high five as a form of leverage
to skip ahead of the Todd, who's waiting at the
lab for a sample. But Carla wants to say her
sample first so that she can help Elliot, right, so

(01:14:37):
she you know, so she ate, she ransoms the five
away from the Todd and he lets her go forward,
and Todd says something like, still can high fives something
like that. It was cute, Still allowed to high five? Yeah,
I love to high five. I just love high fiving people. Um,

(01:15:01):
so Elliott has to page from then that's clever. We
cut to the fairytale world and she sends a dove,
which is the equivalent of paging someone back in the day,
and then comes in the most brave, handsome, sexy, badass
night doctor Cox and um, he goes in to try
and fight the monster and gets the shit kicked out
of him. Yeah, the monster pieces. I thought that was

(01:15:23):
a great Cowboys switch. When the monster there's a shot
where the monster curls him out of the hut and
it's it's it's really well done because it's Johnny sees
stunt double taking the giant um stunt toss and then
Johnny Ce pops up in the foreground without a cut.
It was really cool. Did you guys notice that, Yes,

(01:15:44):
I love a cowboy switch. Yeah, it was a pretty
dope Cowboys. We do it pretty well known scrubs man,
you love a cowboys switch? Backwards cowboy switch? Well, I
learned it on Zach definitely trying to just make a
sex joke there. It's reverse reverse cowgirls switch. I don't
even know what to say, but it's a clever sex joke, Sarah.

(01:16:05):
For those of you who haven't listened to the episodes
where we talk about cowboys, which it's when you don't
cut the stuntman or woman does something really crazy and
then the actor who's playing the actor is somehow swapped
out without cutting. They pop up in the foreground or something.
That's a cowboy switch. But what's a reverse cowgirl switch? Act?
That's what I wanted. I didn't know the lingo I tried.
I don't know what it's called. Sarah, you know what

(01:16:27):
a reverse cowgirl is? Come on, don't act like you're
an innocent Vancouver woman. Back to the show. All right,
so this is my best guests. Don't have that power.

(01:16:49):
He's trying to be like Bill. Now James the subject
my podcast podcast best line of the past, but the
best line of the whole show. Are you out of
your mind? Woman? We only got one ball? I don't
do it. We only got one ball. Now, that's funny

(01:17:12):
because Turla probably that's a really interesting that's a really
interesting set of genitalia right there. Like I would I
personally would be interested in seeing yeah, because it would

(01:17:33):
be half ball and shaft. Hopefully there's enough shaft to
use half vulva. I'm can excuse well if the genitalia
is split down the middle, right, Um, and we know

(01:17:54):
that Turla is a very sexual being. Yes, how does
it hook up with itself? We'll just leave the audience
to audience. You can daydream on that. That's on y'all.
Whatever you're thinking, that's on y'all's brain. That's on y'all's brain. Yeah,

(01:18:14):
it's another as Bill, whatever you're thinking, that's on y'all's brain.
We didn't say that. We say, Um, all right, let's
talk it we gotta we gotta wrap it up soon
because we know it's not every way. One of the
funniest things was Neil getting a shoelace tied and he's like,
my uncle's family was killed by a madman hacking to pieces. Yeah, um,

(01:18:40):
we've got a long time, but that's okay. This is
an epic episode and we have chalk um. So then
Jordan is the scary old lady in the bushes and
then we reveal that it's her with a face mask on.
I thought that was really cute. Um, she's saying Perry
let him go to bed and um. And then we
go to the commercial. That's the whole first act of
the show. Polish really at the first act, I know,

(01:19:02):
and I just saw that the way Donald Donald had
such a great line um that we can't skip overs
is baby, maybe you could love the monster to sleep?
Was one of your boring stories about your damn family.
That's when she punches him in the ball m and
I'm seeing this Cowboys switch I'm talking about. King comes
after the commercial break. It's in act. It's opens act
two of the show. Um, and that's where are you

(01:19:22):
out your mind? No, no, there's no breaks, there's no break.
We're just going to keep it. And then we learn
that we need the golden ring, so um and he
and then we hear remember what you heard when you
weren't even listening, Okay, So that becomes sort of the
theme we need to remember. That's what we get told
by the night. It's really interesting we're learning this year

(01:19:46):
how important Sarah's patient of sorry, how important Elliot's patients
are to her. But in the last episode, we learned
that Elliot was you guys on that quest to find
out if she if the patient was still alive or
if the patient got sick, because yeah, because of the

(01:20:11):
diabetes drug and plumox right right, But what was her
reasoning for it? Like, is it because in this one
she's doing it because she really wants to save this
She wants to figure out what's wrong with this young
girl and why her kidneys are failing? Yeah, that one
and that one it was. It was she was concerned
that the drug Plomax had hurt one of her patients

(01:20:33):
were killed him with diabetes. But again, keep in mind,
these weren't supposed to be next to each other. But
I'm trying to figure out there could be a connection
in both of them because the storyline is still very
similar where Elliot Elliott likes to go on quest with
j D just that, but not only quest with JD,
but quests for her patients to try, you know, for

(01:20:55):
it's there all noble quests. Yes, Elliott doesn't give up
on a patient, that's for darn sure. She she she'll
do anything to figure things out. Along the road, we
run into Elliott and JD are riding the donkey, and
they run into Ted and the janitor and U and
Ted says something that made me laugh. He says, I
tell most people I'm under an evil spell, but really

(01:21:17):
it's a self esteem thing. It's all confidence thing. And
then we get captured and Elliott and j D and
we get sent to the dungeon where we see Doug's
head on a stick. Yes, um, And we try and kiss,
which was funny with with our, with our, she admits,

(01:21:39):
twas I I tried to kiss you, Andy, we're too
far apart to kiss. They were like trying to reach.
We're all chained up to the wall, trying to reach
a little more tongue. Yeah, we can't reach. And then
Ted is on a stick. I said that, right, But
then we're in office with Kelso, and Kelso is explaining
why he have to go home, and You're like, I'm

(01:22:02):
private practice. Eliot's like, I'm private practice, and JD's like,
and I have no patient interaction when I'm with rolling
with us. So you're not gonna you can't get sued
for this because it starts off with him saying I'm
gonna you guys are suspended or something like that, right, yeah,
And then he's not wearing pants. Yeah, he says, I
can do whatever I want to show this off. He

(01:22:22):
stands up and he's wearing boxers. Find would have been
fired right then and there nowadays nowadays, guess what, no, no, yeah, no,
that's a rap. So then now we encounter the Wooden Nymphs,
and the wooden Nymphs who are the interns provide us
with a golden ring. And then in the real life, uh, well,

(01:22:45):
you guys, remember what you heard, and that which from
the Wilson Wilson's disease, which which cleverly these genius writers,
is a little golden ring around the iris. That's that's
how you find it. So and how about that set
transition back into the ICU. Oh my god, that was
so wonder I've forgotten that that was so cool. I

(01:23:10):
think I think it was Zach Braft. Not really a
horse rider, are you? But no, I mean I'm certainly
not an expert enough to look good. Did you ever
put it on your resume when you were younger? Probably
put everything on their hockey, rowing, rowing because the ideology
was like, the ideology was like, just when you get

(01:23:31):
the job, you'll figure that shit out. You'll learn, you'll
figure it out. The problem is the problem is now
that you're a director and you hire someone that says
like like, yeah, I can play soccer, and then you
go to film it and you see how badly they
are in soccer. You're like, oh, I can't believe that anymore. Right,
And also, as a kid, I feel like when you
put that shit on there and you were like hockey
like you would just you'd actually would figure it out.

(01:23:52):
Now that we're in our forties, you can't just figure
that shit out. I'm trying try to learn how to
play hockey, putting no play on my resume. Shit. But
Sarah Sarah says she's learning to play now in her forties. Oh,
good for you, you know, but you're not a skate Nope,
did not grow up skating. Only Canadian did not. That's right.

(01:24:13):
Learning Now everybody else could skate. You couldn't. I've never
it's it's so hard. It's so hard in such a
hard surface. But Sarah, you can dance. Um, oh, okay,
another dance everybody. Oh it's a bit of a twerk
now everyone. I didn't get to see it, but it
was a twerk and I get it. Go Getter Nation

(01:24:34):
should send you some some some sweatpants for twerking in
their sweatpants like that. Oh I think I think they should.
I think they should. Oh yeah, okay, wait wait wait,
before we were on the horse, you've sent something really funny, Zach,
missing one of my favorite life missing what you could
have had when you tried to kiss me good moral
instead of good moral. And then it wraps up as

(01:25:02):
the night goes through town and the camera cranes through
the village and I, those of you who like mistakes,
I didn't see this obviously. I would have fixed it probably,
or if I could have. But when Sarah and I
are up on that bridge around twenty one twenty, you
can clearly see that she's on standing on Plywood and
I'm standing on black boxes. As a director, that really

(01:25:24):
annoyed me that that wasn't taken care of. So if
you like mistakes, there's one for you. But overall, a
great episode everybody, and Sarah, it's so fun to have
you here. Big shout out to Cox and Jordan at
the end with the cute little scene by the door
turns tragic and it really makes you feel it, you

(01:25:46):
know what I mean. Where Jordan's listening the whole time
and she's like, so, what happened? Did the girl get
the new kidney? Did the girl? Did she live? What happened?
What's the end of the story. Is that how it ends?
He's like, well that's how I'm telling it. Oh yeah,
He's like everything turned out fine. She's like it really
did it? And he's like, well that's how I'm telling it.
That's great because it gives you this scrubs gut punch fashion.

(01:26:10):
Yeah you know what really happened? Yeah they were too late. Yeah,
so well done, So well done by everybody involved and

(01:27:16):
I love you guys, Sarah, We love you you guys. Good.
This is how I know, this is how I know
we have something special. We were up on this motherfucker
for an hour and thirty three minutes, or we could
do we could do two hours with Sarah felt like
ten minutes if I had a chat I had a
chat GPT scene for us to do. But we'll do
it next time when Sarah, you don't want to do it. Now,

(01:27:38):
we're getting real long. I mean an hour and a half.
I feel like it's a bit long. They love it
when we go long, they do love it. I'm just saying,
all right, do you want to quickly do a chat
GBT scenes? Yeah? All right, Sarah. Do you know what
this is? Sarah, I don't fill me in? All right,
so I'm gonna text you. I get your phone out. Um,
we had aire is a thing called chat ABT that

(01:28:00):
will write scenes, and I had it write a scene.
I'll give you the prompt that I gave it, and
it wrote a scrub scene. I'm gonna text it to
you right now. Okay, I'll read the stage directions all
right everyone, so um, sorry, we're gonna stay and do
one quick chat GPT scene for you. I will read
the stage directions. Sarah, you will read the part of Elliott.
The only instruction I gave chat GBT was to write

(01:28:22):
a scrub scene where Elliott confesses to Turk that she's
truly in love with Turk. Okay, I'm the stage directions.
Scene opens in the hospital hallway with Elliott and Turk
walking together. Turk, Um, I have something to tell you.

(01:28:42):
What is it? Elliott? No written, Chatt chose the term
ells We're gonna but chat GBT is shaking it up.
Let's start again, Okay from the top, but leave that
in down. Scene opens in the hospital with Elliott and
Turk walk in together. Turk, I have something to tell you.

(01:29:04):
What is it? Else? Well, I've been doing a lot
of thinking lately, and I've realized that I'm more in
love with you than JD. How can that be? I
thought you two were meant to be. And then the
stage direction is Elliott blushes, which I will now do

(01:29:27):
on my own. There we are blushing, I know, but
there's just something about your big, muscular build that makes
my heart skip a beat. Well, I didn't see that coming.
I'm serious, Turk. I love your strength, your confidence and

(01:29:50):
the way you always know what to do, Just the
kind of man I want by my side. Well, in
that case, I'm glad to no I'm a top pick.
They're more than just a pick. Turk, You're my heart
and soul. I love you too. Else The scene closes

(01:30:13):
with the two of them walking off, smiling and holding hands.
But there you go, yo, Zach, Why are you freaking
putting porn into the freaking I've tried to do porn.
It censors any porn freaking that's like some freaking JD
fantasy shit, Like no, listen. I tried to make it

(01:30:35):
more pornographic and it won't do it. It censors you.
So all I'll do is hold hands. What were your
other trying anytime I'm trying to do anytime I try?
Anytime you try? Where Turk and Jay I mean where
My very first thing I typed into it was right
a scene with Turk and g D banging, and it

(01:30:57):
was like it was like, nah, I ain't I'm not
ain't having that not doing that. It was like it
was like error four or four error yeah, you know,
like you know, like how in the two thousand and
one Like what are you doing? Zack? I'm afraid I
can't let you do that? Zach? What are you doing? Zack?

(01:31:23):
All right? That's it. We love you, count us out.
