I don't even know if we can go down that road.

0:06

I mean, the President just tweeted to everybody

0:09

not to be afraid of COVID anymore.

0:12

I just don't know how we go down that road and

0:14

recover and do a comedy show. It's just

0:16

so upsetting. I just I lost

0:20

my dog, everybody.

0:23

That was something that happened Friday. I

0:25

had this amazing dog for seventeen

0:28

years. We called him. We called him Roscoe

0:31

P. Coltrane. And

0:35

I was walking down the street seventeen

0:37

years ago on Melrose Boulevard and

0:40

a guy was selling a litter

0:42

of puppies out of a cardboard box,

0:45

and I was on

0:47

my mind. I was thinking about getting a puppy, and I reached

0:49

down to the box and I picked this little guy

0:52

up and he fit in the palm of my hand and

0:54

I looked at him and I just said hello, Roscoe.

0:58

And I knew that I was never, ever, ever, ever

1:00

gonna put that dog back in that box. And

1:04

he was an amazing dog. He was. He was you

1:06

know, I know it's it's a hackneyed

1:08

expression, but he was quite literally my best

1:11

friend. And

1:14

he got real old. I mean, he was just hanging

1:16

in there and he was having seizures

1:19

and he was he had cataracts and

1:21

he was having a rough time of it. So

1:24

we took him in the vet, not knowing that it was the

1:26

day. And the vets

1:28

these days are really awkward because

1:30

you you hand the animal off and with

1:33

a mask on and everything, and then the doctor, the nurses

1:35

and such they go inside and then you wait and

1:37

the doctor vet calls you on your phone

1:41

and he said to me, I

1:43

just don't know. I

1:45

just need to know what your plan is here, because

1:48

we have to think about what's the most fair thing

1:51

for the animal. And I

1:54

knew what he meant, and he

1:57

didn't have much quality of life left. So

2:00

I've never done this before, but I'm sure some of you

2:02

listeners have, but we we did the thing

2:04

where you go and you go inside and you

2:07

say goodbye and then they inject

2:11

him with the meds

2:13

that slowly put him to sleep. It was

2:16

really really hard. I mean, I mean I sobbed

2:18

harder than I have it certain

2:21

human funerals. That

2:24

was hard. Um.

2:27

I mean, I'm sure a lot of people listening

2:29

can can relate if you've been through that experience saying

2:32

goodbye to your your your buddy. But

2:34

that was that was that was a rough that was a rough day.

2:37

I'm sorry, man, I'm so sorry that thank you.

2:39

It also related to Scrubs. He spent almost

2:41

every day on the scrub set running around.

2:44

Yeah, we had a lot. We were allowed to bring

2:46

our dogs because it was just an abandoned hospital. So

2:48

the particularly the third floor,

2:51

the dogs must you've heard us talk about this much

2:53

to Johnny. Johnny sees chagrin.

2:56

The dogs would just run around the whole third floor

2:59

and what what was the

3:01

name of a dog that mister Darcy Roscoe

3:04

and mister Darcy had a relationship. Yeah,

3:06

mister Darcy was Hillary

3:09

right, Yeah, she was the production manager

3:11

thing. And the dog would just sit on her desk,

3:14

a little little little Pomeranian type

3:16

thing. Yeah, there were tons of dogs. It was like a dog park. That

3:19

was fun. Um. Well, we have

3:21

this new puppy named Billy, and she's

3:23

bringing lots of joy into our

3:25

lives. And adopt

3:27

a dog if you, amen,

3:30

if you if you can, because they

3:32

really bring a lot of joy

3:35

to to your life. Amen. So

3:37

we are also we should say a little programming

3:40

announcement. We are going to do

3:42

one a week for a little bit. The

3:44

good news is I have some things happening with the screenplay

3:47

that I've talked about on this show, and I kind

3:49

of got to dive in and do

3:51

a big draft and work on it. So

3:53

we warned you, We warned you when work started

3:55

getting a little bit real, we were gonna go to one a week.

3:57

But I think we're gonna come back. I just need like a couple

4:00

weeks or so to do to focus.

4:02

I know you might think this takes no effort,

4:05

this podcast, but it does take a little

4:07

bit of our time, and we do edit them, and we

4:09

do schedule guests, and we do

4:12

seal with the merch and we do have

4:14

a fucking epic email chain, and

4:16

uh so I just need to lighten that that

4:18

that load of tiny bit. But we'll be back with with

4:21

two a week after I put my ass

4:23

in the chair and do some writing. That

4:25

being said, so you guys are clear

4:28

on this. It's not Donald

4:30

Faison to go. It

4:32

could be mad at me to one a week. It

4:35

is Zach Brat that wants to go

4:37

anybody.

4:41

He's the one that saying this ship. I just don't

4:43

want the consequences and the repercussions

4:46

to come my way. I'm sorry. I'm not a

4:48

part of a part of I'm not a part of

4:50

this. I'm I'm sorry

4:52

to let anyone down. UM.

4:55

I know a lot of people count on this podcast. UM,

4:57

and we're loving it. This is not a

5:00

permanent thing. I just need to jam

5:02

on a project a little bit. I'm sure everyone

5:04

listening knows what that's like, when you gotta put

5:06

the phone down and turn the internet off and

5:09

do the work. Put

5:12

put the work in it. We're as supposed to be.

5:14

Did you spend today? Donald? I

5:18

thought you're gonna be my partner in this.

5:20

You're not. I'm gonna I'm gonna send Joel and

5:22

Daniel a Peloton. Yes, hold

5:25

on, let's do it.

5:28

Make sure it's Peloton sending it. I would hate for you to be

5:30

spending I might just buy you one

5:32

because I need I need some partners

5:34

in this endeavor. I'm trying to be

5:37

every damn day. I'm telling you, I

5:39

mean I would too, Joel, we'll

5:41

do it together. We'll do together. Yes, I

5:46

all you gotta do is text me when you're jumping on

5:48

and I'll get in that same ride and we can compete.

5:50

Baby, Let's go I'm down. I'm always

5:53

down, Joel, Happy birthday.

5:56

Oh my god, that's right, Oh my god,

5:59

it was right for

6:06

um. My friends picked me up and we went

6:09

to there in my pod. I know you guys have recently

6:11

come and be like, this is your pod. I have five

6:14

friends I hang out with. So we got into a car

6:16

and the Haunted hay Rides is our annual

6:18

tradition we go every year, and this year they

6:20

made the Haunted hay Rides into a drive in, which

6:23

is really cool. Show

6:26

like horror shorts on a big screen,

6:28

and then they have like people

6:30

dressed in concession stand clothes, but they're like mummified

6:33

and they carry like dead heads around

6:35

and some of them have like trash can

6:37

lids, and so as you're watching the movie, right before the scare combs,

6:39

they'll like come up behind your car and like crash their

6:41

lids and you're like, what the hell is outside of my car.

6:44

It's very campy and cute

6:46

occasionally scary because those guys are good at their job.

6:49

You're like, I can see you, and then they come up around the other

6:51

side of the car and you're like, damn it caught me again. They

6:56

do the Jurassic Park to you, clever

6:58

a girl girl

7:03

that well, happy birthday, Joel.

7:06

Our prison will be a bit belated, but it's in

7:08

the works. M it's

7:11

coming, It's coming. It's

7:13

in the works. It's in the works. Um. The other thing

7:15

I wanted to say is that you the people

7:17

have asked and we have delivered. And

7:20

on the next episode of this podcast,

7:22

we will have Rob Mashio finally, high

7:28

five Todd. You guys have asked for it, and

7:30

you guys are gonna get it. Hey,

7:34

we should talk about the voting thing, man, Yes

7:36

we should. So this will this

7:39

will be airing. Um, when is this,

7:41

Eric, Joel? Tomorrow? Tomorrow? Oh

7:43

good, good, good, good good, perfect, yes,

7:47

perfect. Sorry, it sucks for Dan,

7:50

by the way, it sucks for Dan, and Dan I'm

7:52

sorry. Sometimes it's okay. Sometimes

7:55

because of something happens, like my dog dying,

7:57

we have to we have to push and then we make

7:59

Dan put these all together and edit them

8:01

overnight. Dan, I'm sorry, it's okay,

8:03

but totally understand. The good news that this

8:05

has happened is that we can

8:08

plug tomorrow. So

8:11

Donald and I promised you folks that

8:13

if fifteen hundred of you registered

8:16

or checked your registration, which you

8:18

can still do at headcount

8:20

dot org. Slash Zach and Donald.

8:23

If fifteen hundred of you did it, that

8:25

we would get together and we

8:27

would make and show you how

8:30

to make an Apple team. Okay,

8:32

well, guess what y'all eleven

8:35

thousand, three hundred and ninety

8:37

five of you what thunderds?

8:39

Applause? Dan did

8:41

you say? Eleven thousand? Eleven

8:43

thousand, and by the way, it's ticking up. By bye bye

8:46

tomorrow when this airs, it might be twelve. It's

8:48

still ticking like crazy.

8:52

So thank you, thank you, thank you, thank

8:55

you.

8:55

What's

8:59

crazy is that you would think that there

9:02

wouldn't be that many people out there that aren't

9:04

registered to vote, but apparently

9:07

registration Look, yo, dude,

9:09

I always thought everybody, you know, if

9:11

you have an idea, you're registered to vote. You

9:14

got to go through a process and stuff. Yeah, in

9:16

other countries it's that way. Not here, exactly.

9:18

Here, the people that don't want you to vote

9:20

make it hard to vote. A lot of people like,

9:23

why aren't you automatically registered when

9:25

you get a jobber's license? That should That should just be obvious,

9:28

and the other In other countries, voting day is

9:30

a holiday? Why is that not true here? Why do

9:32

we have random other holidays but not

9:34

election Day? Yeah?

9:36

Why why is it on a Tuesday

9:38

when everybody's back your work? Right? Well?

9:41

I think because the folks who would prefer

9:43

you not to vote do not want to

9:45

change things to make it easier for you to vote.

9:48

M M. But anyhow,

9:51

those of you who did it, thank you so much.

9:53

And and I really we really really appreciate

9:55

it. And and also you know,

9:57

it's still live. So tell your friends

10:00

to do it and get your family

10:02

to do it. You're gonna get an Apple Teamy regardless

10:04

of you're gonna get the prize anyway.

10:07

So just go out there. If you haven't, if

10:09

you haven't registered to vote, come

10:11

register with us. Man. We're it's a safe

10:13

space. It's quick and easy. And

10:15

my timeline was filled with people

10:18

like you know, Zach, I've been registered for years. I never

10:20

even thought the check. But because I wanted to support you guys,

10:22

I did it. I forgot that because I changed

10:24

my name or oh my god, there

10:27

were all these things that were like you

10:29

know what, Zach, I'm moved and I'm embarrassed to say

10:31

I haven't voted in fourteen years. But I'm gonna

10:33

vote this time, and I checked that I wasn't registered.

10:35

And I'm just telling you, if

10:37

you're listening to this and you're going I'm registered,

10:40

just just go check because A you'll

10:42

build our egos with how many people we got

10:44

to check at which we appreciate

10:47

and be Um, you just never know. You

10:49

just never know, especially especially

10:52

in certain states where they're actively kicking people

10:54

off the rolls. Um, So that's

10:56

exciting. So put it in your little date

10:58

book, your iCal whatever you have. What's

11:01

ikel called on on android?

11:03

Cal Yeah, calendar,

11:06

11:12

whatever your weird calendar is. Write

11:15

it down tomorrow at six pml a time.

11:17

Now, I had a lot of people who listen in Europe already

11:19

write me like that's the middle of the night. Well,

11:21

understandably, this was United States

11:24

Challenge and UM Donald

11:26

and I UM would prefer to wait till

11:28

the end of the day to start drinking Martini's.

11:31

So and people

11:34

in Europe, you didn't have to participate in the challenge

11:36

in the first place. So you're getting a free

11:38

apple tiny heart to sy of the guys

11:40

from Scrubs. So it's true. But

11:44

uh, and we're gonna leave it that haven't even said

11:46

we're gonna do it live. We'll do it live. We're gonna

11:48

do it live, and then we'll

11:50

we'll leave it in the in our feed or

11:52

11:55

be able to watch it. Um,

11:57

hopefully everything goes smoothly. I

12:00

want you all to know we're gonna go live Donald, so

12:02

12:08

Let me ask you a question. These are questions that I

12:10

need answered. Yes, can I be

12:12

stoned? Well, everyone expects

12:14

that you'll be stoned. Yeah, that's fine. I don't think you should

12:17

smoke weed on the live feed. You're

12:19

not you're not like, you're not you know we're

12:22

12:38

I'm sure everyone would love it if you were topless? Um,

12:41

13:09

Yeah? And wait, you see this shirt,

13:11

13:17

Enough times about

13:21

we made about

13:24

a bunch of dots and nurses

13:28

stories so

13:34

undead.

13:43

I don't like to say this very often, and you

13:45

know I don't because sometimes y'all might think I'm

13:47

blowing these episodes up too much. So

13:49

what are you talking about? Every once in a while I

13:52

say something that is honest to the

13:54

people because I want these people who are listening

13:56

to know that I care about them and

13:58

I never lie to you. Not a

14:00

great episode, Okay,

14:03

I'm I'm I'm

14:05

I'm glad you said something about

14:07

that. You know what I wrote. Look at

14:09

the last thing I wrote in my notes. Do

14:20

you disagree? No? I agree

14:22

with you. Actually I think this

14:25

This episode has great story lines

14:28

and story arcs in it, but

14:31

overall, I didn't you know

14:33

what I think I've missed. I missed a Looma, and

14:35

I miss Robert, and I miss Mascio.

14:37

Neither one of them are in this episode, and

14:40

because of that, I don't think

14:42

I I didn't laugh. They those

14:44

are the one and no Sam Lloyd either, So

14:47

no big laughs for me. Yeah,

14:49

I didn't really laugh that much.

14:51

You know what I laughed at was your hair in the flashbacks,

14:54

because you always you always have a high

14:56

top fade and I have a mullet, but this woman's

14:59

extra high. Did you realize that it

15:01

looks like Yeah,

15:04

it looked like the wig grew. The

15:06

wig grew like

15:09

they put some type of miracle grow and that

15:11

ship they put it on. The head Mannequins

15:14

shot, there's a shot of you. There's

15:16

a single shot of you with that wig on, and

15:18

it's the it's the hardest, funniest laugh

15:21

I have in the whole episode, just because this is a psych

15:23

gag of you with it must be it must be

15:25

eight inch ten inch high top fade. It's

15:27

amazing. It's a pretty high top fade. I

15:29

will say this though, I will say this, uh

15:32

one, holy shit. I

15:35

mean we should get into the recap first, but yeah,

15:37

who the fuck eats breakfast at Sea World

15:40

like it's a normal thing. That was Come

15:42

on, buddy, that is amazing.

15:45

Imagine. No, that is a real I mean we're

15:47

not plugging Sea World, but that is a thing that used

15:49

to be able to do. There was you could go and at the

15:51

restaurant and then like whales would swim by.

15:54

What Yeah, yeah, dude,

15:56

I swim by swim by crying

15:58

looking for their baby things. Splash

16:01

your eggs too, dark

16:05

SeaWorld, I don't care a Fox SeaWorld support.

16:08

It's gonna take a hit out on me, but I don't care a Fox

16:10

SeaWorld. I'm gonna have people in wet

16:12

suits climb over my fence and kill me. That's

16:20

something. I got a scarface dude, I know

16:22

what's gonna be like, I'm gonna be in my

16:24

fucking house with my I don't

16:26

have a I don't have a scarface gun, but

16:30

I probably shouldn't tell the SeaWorld people that I do

16:32

have a scarface gun. All

16:38

right, all right, get into your recap? Are

16:41

you ready? Yeah? Hold on? I got a time? Is it? We're

16:43

even worth timing anymore? We know it's gonna

16:45

do whatever you want. There's no need to time

16:47

this one. It's gonna be a quick and short one. Okay,

16:49

I'm glad to know you put in the effort. Here we go

16:52

and go. Doctor

16:54

Cox learns some things can't be fixed

16:56

with privilege. JD's given

16:58

advice from an unlikely source, but

17:00

JD's unwillingness to receive said

17:03

advice doesn't help him and hurts

17:05

his interns. Pride gets the

17:07

best of us. Thank goodness. No one's

17:09

immune to humility,

17:11

that twenty D. Thank

17:15

god, no one is immune to humility.

17:17

Everybody can be humbled, is what you're saying. Yeah,

17:20

that's exactly what I'm saying. Not everyone, Donald,

17:23

not everyone. Oh,

17:26

let's not go there, Let's not go there. Sorry.

17:29

Sorry. So Chris

17:31

Maloney's in the episode, and he's a funny

17:34

guy. You know. I was watching

17:36

this and going, God, I bet Johnny See and Chris

17:38

Maloney fucking hated each other because

17:41

they're just too similar and too alpha,

17:44

and to Chris is a lovely guy. Don't get me wrong,

17:46

but I was just thinking of the two alpha's basically

17:49

the characters they're playing in the episode. I

17:52

just pictured. So I texted Johnny

17:54

and I go, you fucking hated Maloney, didn't

17:56

you? He laughed, and he goes, no, No, our

17:58

old friends, Um, there's just

18:00

something about watching the episode. I guess their acting was amazing,

18:02

but I was like, these fuckers must have

18:04

really hated They're

18:09

just so similar in their alpha maleness.

18:12

It's very interesting that Johnny

18:15

hangs out with a lot of people that

18:17

are exactly or not exactly, but

18:19

are very much like him. If you look

18:21

at his group of guys that he hangs

18:24

out with, they're all uber alpha.

18:26

Yeah, they're all you know what I mean, They're all

18:29

sports, they love sports, and they're all

18:31

very eccentric actors, you

18:33

know what I mean. They have little quirks

18:36

about them that nobody else does,

18:38

you know what I mean. By the way, we sold

18:40

out of beach towels. We sold out a

18:42

water class. That's

18:45

great. We still

18:47

don't have any mugs available for you guys. Well,

18:49

why why aren't we ordering more stuff? Because

18:51

we never we release something, everyone gets excited

18:54

and then it sells right out. We need to order

18:56

me. Yeah, that's you guys are doing

18:58

much better. They like, We were like, oh, they're gonna

19:00

do really good. We'll order a lot, and then you

19:02

do so much better, and so

19:04

you're setting a new standard. We're just trying to hold

19:07

me. Um. The merch gal Harper

19:09

told me that there's over two hundred people

19:11

on a waiting list for beach towels.

19:15

That's how much people. That's how much people

19:17

want to lie on our faces. This

19:19

is the streetwear method. This is how Supreme does. Oh

19:22

we're doing this Supreme way that people

19:24

lined up. Oh,

19:28

we're doing Supreme style. If

19:30

you live in LA and before COVID, if you live

19:32

in LA and you drive down Fairfax, you will see

19:34

a line like you can't believe how long

19:36

the line is. And I'm just I'm always like, what, well,

19:38

who's doing a signing? Is it like fucking

19:42

jay Z? What are people lined up for? And

19:44

it's fucking the Supreme store every day.

19:47

So Donald, we're trying to get that Supreme action.

19:49

That's why that's why I should sold out. Well

19:52

yo, we yo. I'm just saying, man, maybe

19:54

we should do a little thing with Supreme. Maybe we should

19:56

get like that a Supreme like a stamp

19:59

and just stamp Supreme on the back of our shirts.

20:02

People. Wait, hold on now,

20:04

Dann, you know I'm right. You're gonna get real frisky with

20:06

that. Damn. You know I'm right about

20:08

this. People pay your life for that supreme

20:11

ship. I don't even gotta be real supreme

20:13

on They gotta do is say supreme on it. I listen,

20:15

if you bought the washcloth and our faces

20:17

are dotted all over it like a checkerboard, and you

20:20

20:22

into your anus to get any dukey

20:24

out of the shower, use Zack Donald's

20:27

20:30

21:01

of this stuff, hoodie,

21:04

I'm just trying to get one. I

21:07

didn't realize. I didn't realize

21:09

that this was gonna be an issue until

21:11

I was promoting our towels saying

21:13

that they were up live, and I

21:16

realized, oh shit, people could

21:18

wash their asses or their wops.

21:21

That's the whole point with our faces.

21:23

Yeah, get your get get it on your whop. Everybody,

21:40

22:00

the way, you can use me on your use use

22:02

22:04

balloon knight. This

22:07

is the best episode of this show ever. Wait,

22:11

this might be the best

22:13

advertising. Look, it's our stuff, so we can

22:15

advertise it however we want it. We don't

22:17

have any guidelines. Yeah, this is what I want you

22:19

to do, Ladies and gentlemen of fake doctors

22:22

and real friends. Take doctors real friends. If

22:24

you're out there, Yeah, and you have purchased

22:28

said washcloth or towel. I

22:31

give you permission. You don't even need my permission,

22:33

but I give you permission to wipe your

22:35

asshole with my face. This

22:40

is the best red ad we've

22:42

ever done. If only are if only

22:44

are ads that we have to read sounded

22:47

this good? Gis Kamboche is begging

22:49

for this, ya, Gkabuch is gonna be like,

22:51

can you give us that kind of energy? That's amazing.

22:54

Let's take a break. We'll be right back after these

22:56

fine words

22:59

you. Let's

23:04

gets focused, all right. So Chris Maloney's

23:06

in the episode.

23:14

Uh, we tried to get Chris by the way,

23:17

but he is shooting his show,

23:19

which I think is h He works so

23:21

much for you, right, Is he still in es for you or he having I

23:24

think I think he's coming back for you, dude,

23:27

I think he's coming back. Imagine how rich

23:29

Chris Maloney must be from that SVU

23:31

money. It's like season forty five. Well,

23:34

look think about Marishka man. I know I've been to

23:36

Mauritika's house. It's insane. I gotta

23:38

tell you. But but I'm gonna tell you for

23:41

you money, Donald, we never did make that s for

23:43

you money, Donald, No, we did not but

23:45

when you think about when you think about it, they

23:48

have to give up every other

23:50

aspect of their career just to do

23:53

that show. Yeah, they went on in. It's like poker, They're

23:55

all in. All in here. You go like,

23:57

I can't I'm not gonna ever do movie. I can't do movies

23:59

because of this. I can't do he does. He

24:01

does indecent stuff. I mean, I've seen Cleary. He

24:04

had to leave SVU to do that. Though he had to

24:06

leave the show to go do other

24:09

things. I'm just telling. When your show is on,

24:11

like season one hundred, it's just like

24:13

Ellen Pompeo on Gray's Anatomy.

24:15

I mean, how many seasons has that been on

24:17

Ellen Pompeo. She must have gold

24:21

fawcets.

24:30

Ellen Pompeo takes a jet

24:32

to Walmart. Listen,

24:35

man, we never did

24:37

get that Gray's Anatomy money. I

24:39

know, but I don't really want. I mean I I

24:41

don't. I don't want to work as hard

24:43

as we did for my whole life, to be honest.

24:46

I mean, those hours are just h too

24:48

much for daddy. I want to work hard. No,

24:51

I totally get it. I told I

24:53

also want to have a little bit of a life. You know what I'm saying.

24:56

I'm sure they have. I'm

24:59

sure they look. First of all, Gray's

25:01

Anatomy can't run forever. It'll run for a long

25:03

time, but it can't run forever. I think it could run

25:05

forever. Why my niece,

25:08

the teenagers have found it? Donald, My

25:10

niece has Gray's Anatomy sheets

25:13

right, But once, once, she

25:16

says, I don't want to do this anymore.

25:18

It's over because she's Gray, isn't

25:21

she there? Always did Now, She's had two

25:23

sisters. One of them died in a plane crash,

25:25

but the other one is still hanging around. She

25:27

could definitely like kick in and run

25:29

that. She's got kids if they want to

25:31

do a quick little time jump, her kids could be

25:33

the grades of Gray's Anatomy. Oh my god, time

25:36

jump. Yeah, no, we don't need to as

25:39

the Marvel Universe. Yes, let's do it. That's

25:43

amazing. Wait, you know, if is

25:46

there a show other than Saturday Night Live?

25:48

And I mean even the tonight show

25:50

changed time slots and

25:53

and who's hosted it and everything like that, It's

25:55

become a completely different show other than

25:57

Saturday Night Live? Is there is there anything?

26:00

This was sixty minutes. Is there any like

26:02

Doctor Who? No, what's the

26:04

Yeah, what's the narrative? Joel? Just look

26:06

up for us? What's the non non news,

26:09

not not sl what's the narrative? What's

26:11

the narrative? Longest running show?

26:13

Yeah? United States? Imagine

26:16

it's Doctor Who? Yeah,

26:19

us, how long exact? I think it's

26:21

got to be those kids over on that Supernatural show,

26:23

right, Yeah, that just ended this year.

26:26

I've never seen an episode of Doctor Who. I'm sorry,

26:29

neither of us. Sorry b BBC, I'm

26:31

sorry. Oh have you watched it? Dan?

26:33

The fans are coming for you. Some episodes I

26:35

wouldn't. I wouldn't call myself a huge fan, but I've

26:37

definitely seen enough. Had some Who

26:39

fans in college who were like, oh, you go to

26:41

watch and I was like, Okay, we'll do it.

26:44

So here we go. The Simpsons

26:46

thirty two seasons, order twenty

26:48

one. Season's gone smoke twenty

26:52

so just imagine twenty

26:54

one. Wwkay, I don't know. I don't

26:56

know. Yeah, I couldn't do a television show for twenty

26:59

one years. But but that's

27:01

that's the same character every

27:03

day. But

27:08

isn't that fucking money though? Isn't that the time.

27:10

Yeah, but I mean, I mean, I mean where it's like yeah,

27:13

but I mean I think one also has to go

27:16

as we did. I mean, or at least

27:18

I see from my point of view, like I want

27:20

to try other things. I want to I'm

27:22

so grateful, but I also want to try other things. I'm

27:25

not judging it. Teach their own. I don't have gold

27:27

Falset's no, no, nobody's

27:30

nobody's nobody's judging anybody.

27:33

I just think, I just think that, uh,

27:35

if I had that opportunity, I don't know that I would

27:37

be like Mama, let's let's say

27:40

piece out to it. There's certain But

27:42

then again, but then again, I didn't work every day

27:45

on scrubs. Like if Scrubs could still run right now,

27:47

I might still be into that. But then again, I didn't

27:49

work every day. I only worked a few days

27:51

out of a week, and I would have days off, and I was able

27:53

to have a life during the day, whereas

27:55

you worked every day damn

27:58

near every hour. So I I could

28:00

totally understand how easy it is to get burnt

28:02

out when you're living that type of lifestyle. All

28:04

right, let's get back to the episode Donald mickhead

28:07

First, introduction of Mickhead. Finally,

28:09

finally, the very first time we introduced

28:12

the character of doctor Mickhead, he

28:14

gets tackled and

28:17

knocked out of the picture. So, Frank,

28:20

this is your moment. We should have had

28:22

you on a show. Sorry,

28:24

well, no, we can have mckhead on. I think we should

28:26

do a special episode one day where we

28:29

discuss we have all

28:31

those guys on the

28:34

Mickheads of the world. The beard fusset. You

28:37

know, I had at this point, I had made Garden State and

28:39

had a big scene where it said balls

28:41

on my face, on my forehead and Garden

28:43

State and I

28:46

don't and then you know, here

28:48

I am. I'm not saying that. You

28:51

know it was taken from that, but I had just

28:53

shot a very special

28:55

moment of my movie where while

28:58

I was drunk in asleep, someone wrote ball on

29:00

my forehead. And now here we are, episode

29:02

three h three, we're

29:04

writing prom on my forehead. Czar,

29:09

what are you trying to say? I'm not trying to see anything.

29:12

I'm not sure about it. I'm are you

29:14

sure about it? Because it seems like you're trying

29:16

to compare balls and prom

29:19

No, I don't think that anyone from the Scrubs

29:21

writer room would have seen an early cut of Garden

29:23

State. I'm just saying it's a bizarre coincidence. Um,

29:27

it does say Prom in my head. And when

29:29

we come back, I say to the janitors

29:31

trying to get the marker off the wall, and I say,

29:34

you'll be able to get off. You won't need laser surgery

29:37

or skin from your ass. That that didn't

29:39

make me laugh. It's your mean

29:41

base pin which which which

29:43

means that JD in order to get Prom

29:46

off his forehead needed to have skin transferred

29:49

from his ass. Yeah, they did a graph

29:51

on his ass. They did a skin graph

29:53

on his ass and lasered the

29:57

markers. The marker was so

29:59

strong that they had to get

30:02

it. Monkeys, Donald, we have monkeys on

30:04

the set, So Zach is the part that

30:06

Deontay wanted to tell us about where

30:09

something happened with him and some monkeys.

30:11

Deontay take it away the Doctor's

30:13

turning into Monkey's fantasy scene.

30:16

Oh yeah, I remember this one real

30:18

well. So the night

30:21

before the scene, Donald

30:23

Zack and I went out and I got super

30:26

drunk and I was really hungover

30:29

the next day. So when

30:31

I get to set, we're

30:33

having like a big safety meeting because these chimpanzees

30:36

are going to be on set, and you know, the trainers

30:38

are telling us how dangerous they are and that they're

30:40

super strong and they can rip your arm out

30:43

of your socket or you know. Another

30:45

story was about a lady who got her

30:47

face eaten off, and basically, we

30:49

got to be super careful, and not only

30:51

careful, anyone who's not needed

30:54

on set after we set this up has

30:56

to leave the floor, like,

30:59

not just the set, but get off of the

31:01

fourth floor where we were filming everyone

31:03

if you're not needing. So I

31:06

was like, you know what, if

31:08

everyone's leaving the floor, then

31:11

the couch in the doctor's

31:13

lounge on the fourth floor, and you guys watch the

31:15

show. You know it's the one that has the pac Man machine.

31:18

The couch is going to be opened, right,

31:20

so I can close the doors and

31:22

take a nap. Cool, right, Not

31:25

cool? Not cool. So

31:28

I'm there sleeping and all of a sudden,

31:30

I'm awakened by the sounds of

31:32

monkeys screaming and trainers screaming.

31:35

I don't know what the monkeys were screaming, but the trainers

31:37

were screaming, get back here, get

31:39

back here, and I was like, get back

31:42

where. Next thing I know, I

31:44

could hear the monkeys running down the hallways

31:46

towards me, and I'm thinking, okay,

31:49

I should be cool, right, like like both

31:51

doors are closed and I'm

31:53

inside. But then I remember, wait

31:55

a minute, monkeys can open

31:58

doors. They got thumbs. So

32:01

as I set up to go run over to lock

32:03

the door, the door just burst

32:05

open and there's a monkey standing

32:07

there with a lap coat on and

32:10

a stethoscope, and he's got his teeth showing,

32:12

and he's looking me dead in my eye, and all

32:14

I can think about is, oh God, I'm

32:17

about to lose my face. Next

32:19

thing I know, monkey starts spreading

32:22

at me, full speed, full speed, across

32:24

the room, right at me, and at the very last

32:26

second, he jumps over me, over

32:29

the couch to the back of the room,

32:31

opens the back door, and runs

32:33

out. That is the last

32:36

time I don't listen

32:38

to safety protocols, just saying

32:41

thank you, thank you. Yeah,

32:43

well, monkey's on set. What a bizarre

32:45

That was a bizarre day. I remember that. How

32:48

about when the janitor sprays his chemicals

32:51

on Doug's ear and Doug starts screaming

32:53

down the hallway.

32:57

Now, then I fantasize about

32:59

seeing Elliott in a bikini sucking

33:02

on a lollipop in a rowboat.

33:06

This is very provocative Sarah Chalk

33:08

moment because she's you

33:10

know, it's

33:13

Jady's fantasy, but um, you know she's

33:15

doing she went full lollipop.

33:20

Wait, what does full lollipop mean? She

33:23

was filating the lollipop in a seductive

33:25

manner whilst

33:28

in a bikini that was cleavage

33:30

heavy in a rowboat.

33:33

And then we cut the Scott Folly and he's dunk

33:35

taped with his mouth all taped up in the bottom

33:37

of the boat and we throw him over

33:39

the side. That was funny. Yeah,

33:43

did did somebody have to really fall in out? Do you remember

33:46

shooting that day? Vaguely?

33:48

I remember, I don't remember where it was. I

33:50

think it looks like Lake Balboa. I could

33:52

be wrong, Probably it was probably that. And

33:54

then yes, a stunt man went in, not fully. I

33:56

don't know if Folly was was was even

33:59

there that they may have shot the him in the boat at

34:01

different time. All I know

34:03

is that water looked gross as Yeah, even

34:06

even when even when they cut to Sarah

34:08

on her back with the lollipop in

34:11

her mouth and the boat's going for you

34:13

know, from underneath the camera, into the into

34:16

the into the background. I

34:18

remember looking at him be like, oh wow, cool shot.

34:20

That water looks dirty as fun. By

34:22

the way, if it was Lake Balboa, it's probably fucking

34:25

floating hypodermic needles in there's

34:28

a stunt man earning his keyp go to

34:30

that water. The

34:34

stunt wasn't falling out of the boat. The stunt was getting

34:36

in the water. Um,

34:42

Like the water is green. When he lands in

34:44

it and it splashes, it doesn't it

34:47

doesn't get white. It just stays green,

34:49

dude, while the water just gross

34:51

gross. Um. How about when

34:54

when I go I think I'm going on to

34:56

dinner with Elliott and Sean shows up. Oh

34:58

hey, Sean's here. Everybody, Hey Sean.

35:03

Hey. You know what else made me laugh

35:05

when he goes When he

35:07

goes well, actually, JD, they they

35:09

are. They are mammals. Well you

35:12

know what, Sean, you know what

35:14

he goes like. Unfortunately, unfortunately

35:17

for me, Sean, my interns

35:19

aren't mammals. And he goes Scott

35:21

with the most perfect straightment. Actually, JD, they

35:24

are. I don't care Sean

35:30

when you go, but when you go, well, you know what, Sean.

35:32

Unfortunately, that ship

35:34

was so I love, I loved.

35:38

I do laugh hard at me being manic and him

35:40

just totally being straight like actually, JD,

35:42

they are mammals, amazing.

35:48

That was funny. I'm about in that flashback

35:50

where just showing what a pushover JD is

35:52

and the guy continue goes who wants to help me move?

35:55

And I go, I will know. And

35:57

then he comes back and he goes, who wants to help

35:59

me move? Back? And I go, I know where it all

36:01

goes. That

36:07

was funny. I've never

36:09

noticed that JD wants everybody to like

36:12

him. I've noticed that he you know, likes

36:14

who he likes, etcetera, etcetera, but I've

36:16

never noticed that he's gone all out to

36:18

make people like him. I always thought that j D was one

36:20

of those cats, well I don't want to fuck with me, and I don't

36:22

got to funk with him. No. I think he was

36:24

definitely someone that was super sensitive and

36:27

wanted everyone to like him. In fact, in this episode,

36:29

he wants his interns to like him so much that

36:31

they're that they're shit. He's not. They don't respect

36:33

him, they're walking all over him. Um

36:36

and uh and he you

36:39

know, one of them. One of his interns hands him a file

36:41

and he's like her, can you take care of this? And I'm like, w do

36:43

you have a lot of other work

36:45

to do. But

36:50

yeah, he's he's there doing all

36:52

of the stuff for his interns, like

36:54

he none of them know how to all of them

36:56

are incompetent because of him. Yeah.

36:59

Yeah, he's not being a good teacher. I mean, that's the

37:01

lesson. It's so hard in life

37:04

when you're when trying to walk that line between

37:07

wanting people to like you and also having

37:09

their respect. Yeah,

37:11

I'm dealing with j. JD is someone who's just

37:13

getting walked all over and he

37:16

doesn't have to stop it because he doesn't want confrontation.

37:20

Sometimes you have to suck it up and have confrontation

37:22

or you're just gonna have no respects. Yeah.

37:24

I'm dealing with that in my house right now, man, with

37:26

my kids. Really, my kids

37:29

walk all over me and I'm on

37:32

the young ones, and I'm walking the thin line

37:34

of having to be you know, I want to be

37:37

their friend, but I also got to be their dad, you

37:39

know what I mean. And so Casey comes

37:41

in and freaking lays down the you know, she

37:43

LAIDs down the gauntlet and they all

37:45

hop to it and everything like that, and

37:47

she looks at me like, dude, what the

37:50

fuck? And in my mind, I'm like, I just don't want them

37:52

to hate me. But yeah, you're right, you just

37:54

you you gotta you have to

37:56

be responsible and you have to

37:58

make sure that their responsable. And so

38:00

this is the exact same thing. That's the exact same thing. And

38:02

I imagine it's so hard as a parent because you're like,

38:04

I don't want to fuck have a confrontation right now.

38:07

I just sat down to eat my soup, or

38:12

you know, I wake up earlier than everybody

38:14

in the morning and stuff like that. And the kids

38:16

come down and you know, it's

38:18

quiet in the house, and Rocco comes

38:20

down and he'll want breakfast, and if

38:22

I don't make him what he wants by

38:25

without reading, you know, it's the mind

38:27

reading of what children want for breakfast. Like

38:29

on TV, you say, you know, the

38:31

breakfast time comes and the parent just makes

38:34

breakfast and the kid eats the ship. In real

38:36

life, parent makes breakfast. The kids

38:38

like, I didn't want dad for breakfast, and

38:40

you're like, oh shit, well what do you

38:42

want? And then now all of a sudden,

38:45

you're catering to the kid, and you

38:47

know, Casey comes down and be like, you're

38:49

eating this ship and they'll eat it. And I'm

38:51

like, why can't I do that? You're the advertising

38:53

for having children. Donald.

38:56

Every time I hang out with Donald, he's like, bro,

39:02

I love my kids. Casey and Casey

39:04

and Donald and Florence and I had had dinner

39:07

and they were like, no, seriously,

39:10

don't do it. No. We weren't like we

39:12

were both like and we're both like ha, and

39:14

they're like, no, run. We

39:18

weren't like that, dude. We were more It was more

39:20

like, if you're gonna do it, just make sure

39:23

you're ready to do it, because if you're

39:25

not ready to do it, this shit it's a lot

39:27

of work and it's only fulfilling

39:31

if you're truthfully in it

39:33

to win it. And we are truthfully in it to

39:35

win it. And so, yes, it's very difficult,

39:37

and yes we have hard times and stuff like that, but

39:40

we know we're trying to raise great

39:43

human beings and that's our effort. And

39:45

so I would love I would love the audience

39:47

to see like subtitles while Donald's

39:50

talking right now, it's like run while you

39:52

still get ignore the words

39:54

that are coming out of my mouth. Right, so

39:56

these motherfuckers will not eat cereal

39:58

for records. Somebody,

40:00

right, somebody takes a picture of me, and then my eyes

40:03

kind of go blank for a second, and I come to

40:05

and I look at you, and I'm like run run

40:10

and then some and then I don't know where my kids

40:12

snatched me up and ship and pulled me away,

40:14

and it's just like it's just like, get out,

40:17

all get out, get out, get

40:19

out all right. On

40:21

that note, we were going to go to break and when we come

40:24

42:12

Let me you are Let me tell the audience,

42:15

you guys, we are looking at

42:17

a realistic, actual

42:20

sized cake of baby

42:22

Yoda. Wow. I mean it looks

42:24

like it could be one of

42:27

those giant figures that that side show

42:29

Collectibles makes, but it is in fact

42:31

an edible cake. Tell us about

42:33

this, Holly,

42:35

So tell us about baby Yoda

42:37

or cake making? You

42:42

made that yes, focus

42:45

on Holly. Come on, how did you learn? How

42:47

did you learn to do that that? Oh my

42:49

god, there's now So

42:53

I actually taught myself.

42:56

Like m I started doing

42:58

it. I wanted to make my son's first birthday

43:00

cake and he just turned thirteen, so

43:03

I wanted to get into

43:06

it. I was watching all the TV shows about

43:08

cake decorating and I was just like, yes,

43:10

I'm going to do this, and so

43:13

that's when I started. My very first cake is my son's

43:15

first birthday cake. Do you have a business that you do

43:17

this or is this just for fun? I

43:19

do. Actually, my

43:22

husband and I have an events

43:24

company, and obviously

43:27

in March that

43:29

went out the window for the foreseeable

43:32

future because we do small events.

43:34

We do concerts and nerd parties

43:36

and things that we have like a lot of people act

43:40

party. That's her dream. Oh my gosh, the powder

43:42

party. The powder parties are so

43:44

much fun. You just don't even know. There's

43:46

like a million wizards and witches.

43:49

So anyway, so we that just went

43:51

out the window and we

43:54

needed to do something to make money. We

43:56

weren't sure if unemployment

43:58

was going to come in or if we you know, at

44:01

that time, we didn't even know that there was a stimules

44:03

coming or anything like that. So I was

44:05

just like, all right, this is what I can

44:08

do. So this is what I'm gonna do. And I

44:10

came up with a menu. My husband

44:12

is a graphic designer and media

44:15

marketers, so he put all of that

44:17

together for me, and we launched and like sold

44:20

out for the first

44:23

like month that we did. Wait,

44:26

tell people, you got to tell people how they

44:28

could get one of your amazing

44:30

cakes. What you have a website I assume

44:32

or something. So yeah, so we're on

44:35

Facebook and Instagram. We're the sugar

44:38

Drop. Hold on, I'm trying to like open

44:40

up this new packet of stickers. I have to show

44:42

you guys stickers.

44:45

Oh, I'll definitely send get all right,

44:48

So okay, this is the Sugar Drop

44:50

Maryland. So it's the sugar Drop MD

44:53

on Facebook and Instagram, sugar

44:55

Drop MD. Now, if you're in the Maryland,

44:57

if you're in the Baltimore area, I assume,

44:59

yeah, yeah, in the Baltimore area, we do delivery.

45:01

So it's like contactless delivery

45:04

of all of your sugary needs. So

45:07

we how

45:10

long does like a baby Yoda cake

45:12

like that, which is just magnificent by the way, and

45:14

even if you're not in the Baltimore area, you should

45:16

go look at her Instagram and see how

45:18

awesome this is. How long does something like that take to

45:21

make? I'm

45:23

not exactly sure, because I do it in steps, like

45:25

I'll bake the cake one day, and then I'll I sit

45:28

and stack it and carve it out another day, and

45:30

then add the details another day. But it's all kind

45:32

of broken up into different chucks. And it could

45:34

be sometimes ten hours

45:36

that it takes me to make something like that, or

45:38

sometimes it could take all week. It just depends

45:41

on you know, it just depends on what it is.

45:43

As your business grows, and I imagine it will,

45:45

you'll probably need to hire some some helpers

45:48

to be able to crank out things like

45:50

that. I know, I know for

45:52

right now, it's just it's just me and

45:54

my husband is my delivery

45:56

boy and my

45:59

UM graphic designer. Could

46:01

you do anything like if I wanted to, if I wanted

46:03

a Joel cake, could you take

46:05

images of Joel and fashion a

46:08

Joel cake for her birth? You know, I do

46:10

believe I could. Okay,

46:12

I have done um, I've

46:14

done like a bust of Deadpool

46:18

and Baltimore, and

46:20

you know some things that like require facial

46:22

features, so I probably could. Okay, Joelle, I'm gonna

46:25

return your present, Joel

46:28

cake. I love it. I would

46:30

like a salted Carol. Let's do this. Donald,

46:34

what would you have made if you could commission? I mean

46:37

it might be baby Yoda, But what would you commission

46:39

as a cake? Wow, that's a tough

46:41

one. It's definitely going to be something Star Wars,

46:44

probably Darth Vader Um. So

46:47

I have a seven year old and five

46:50

year old and so we just recently got

46:52

into the whole you know, well

46:55

me personally again, the whole

46:57

cake once a year, the special

46:59

big ass cake for the birthday. My

47:01

kid had a garbage truck for his second

47:04

birthday, Like a garbage truck

47:06

cake was Yeah,

47:09

it was huge. The crazy

47:11

thing is you look at these things and you're like, there's

47:13

no way that could taste good, and then

47:15

you bite into it and it's delicious.

47:18

It's like eating a Twinkie or a

47:20

yeah you know what I mean. It's it's just really

47:22

interesting. I've always

47:25

shied away from cakes that

47:27

looked like they took a lot of work

47:29

to make because I've always felt like you know

47:32

it's it'll be it'll be old,

47:35

or the frosting will be too it'll

47:38

be worked too much. And in

47:40

all honesty, the cakes are delicious.

47:42

Man. You don't lose you don't lose

47:45

flavor and texture because

47:48

of the sculpture. So I love

47:50

it. I was watching one of those cake shows and they

47:52

were like building like a wallace ingrammet

47:55

moving. It was like a

47:57

pine making machine had

48:00

moving parts, and I always think that's funny, like,

48:02

well, what happens when you like

48:04

cut your knife down and you hit likelywood?

48:07

Like there obviously is I mean not, I'm

48:09

not saying in yours, but in these big elaborate ones

48:11

there's like obviously structure and

48:13

like wiring there there is some structure

48:16

involved. Like baby Yoda had a few doll

48:18

rods inside of him to like sort of keep

48:20

him upright for transport.

48:22

But I always let my customers know, like this

48:25

is what's in it, so just so you know when you're cutting

48:27

into it, so that you don't yeah, all right, So

48:29

I don't even know in the in the fancy cake building

48:32

world, you do have to put some wood dowels

48:34

or something to say, like it's like the thing that used to be

48:36

in the sandwiches the toothpick. Yeah.

48:38

Yeah. Sometimes, um it

48:40

requires like an armature, like it could be PVC

48:43

pipe inside of that thing. It just depends on what it

48:45

is. Like. You just have to build build

48:49

the cakes out. You know, I did a what

48:53

is it called? Well,

48:55

I'm having a blank but anyway, I made this big tree

48:57

one time. Yeah, and so I had like PVC

49:01

pipe and plywood cut out to the shape

49:03

and like build up all over it. So you

49:05

just got to make sure to tell your customers where

49:07

not to cut, right.

49:10

I try to make as much as possible edible

49:12

on my cakes so that it's

49:14

really not just for lucks, but it

49:16

is for taste well. And that's really impressive.

49:19

And also I just admire you for during

49:21

this hard time sort of pivoting

49:23

your business and going how do I how

49:25

do we operate now in this current

49:27

world? And I think that's really impressive that you've been successful

49:30

at it. I really appreciate that

49:32

it was. It's definitely

49:34

been crazy, but we have a really

49:36

supportive family and the people that already supported

49:38

our previous business that now

49:40

jumped on board and we'll order

49:43

things for me on a regular basis and just kind

49:45

of keep us going because we are a family

49:47

here and we

49:49

couldn't do it without their support. So I have a

49:51

question, when COVID's over, are you going to go back

49:53

into event planning and stuff like that again?

49:57

So I think that we're gonna sort

49:59

of do um. I'll probably

50:01

do less, just because I do rely on

50:03

my husband so much for his help

50:06

in in my business, and

50:09

and he relies on me for helping his business.

50:11

So I think that what we'll do is just kind of dial back

50:13

and do an even balance between

50:17

the two so that we can keep doing the things that we're super

50:19

passionate about together. That's

50:22

I just think there's something special about not only

50:24

throwing the party, but you don't have to go someplace

50:26

else to get the cake. What is the cake that you

50:28

want? And then we got you know what I mean, what's the theme at

50:30

a party? We're gonna theme the cake that way too.

50:33

Yeah. Yeah, that BB eight actually

50:35

went to. We had a Star Wars party for

50:37

our events company and

50:39

occasionally and in the Baltimore one, I made

50:41

too. We um occasionally and

50:43

just like I'll throw it together a cake

50:46

to go with a theme of the party. That we're

50:48

having what happens at a Star Wars

50:50

party. I'm sure the two at least two of these people want

50:52

to know what goes down, and I would love to know what happens

50:54

at a Star Wars. So our NERD parties,

50:57

Um, we generally do trivia

51:00

session. So we had a Star Wars thing

51:03

trivia. We have a drink menu that's

51:05

catered to Star Wars and

51:07

uh, we have costume contests

51:10

and things like that in karaoke, like that's

51:13

that's our Nerd party. So our Star

51:15

Wars one, we had the movie shown

51:17

on the screens while everyone was partying.

51:19

We had our menu. Um, we had

51:22

trivia and all of that stuff. So did

51:24

you have blue milk? We did have

51:26

blue milk? Yeah, we did,

51:29

We absolutely did. I've

51:31

been to the cantina

51:33

at Disney sorry Disney landy.

51:36

Yeah, you've been to Galaxy's Edge Galaxies

51:38

at the restaurant,

51:42

isn't it and spy or something like that.

51:45

It was gross? It was gross, No, it wasn't.

51:47

It was amazing. You take that back, Zachary

51:50

Braff. Listen the design of it, the set,

51:52

design of the restaurant. School, don't

51:54

make me curse on it. Don't make me curse. You're

51:57

not telling you did any drink you had or anything

51:59

you ate was wildly edible

52:01

or drinkable. It was all edible and

52:03

drinkable, and it was all very delicious.

52:08

That's how much you're drunk on the Star Wars cool and you're

52:11

like, that was the best food I've ever had. It was fine. I

52:13

didn't. I didn't say that. And

52:17

also they have a lot of watch your mouth,

52:20

have a lot of attitude in there too. Best watch

52:24

your mouth. You're

52:27

going down the path that I can't

52:29

follow you. Yeah, Zachary,

52:32

you're breaking my heart.

52:45

All right, we gotta we gotta keep moving, Holly, give

52:47

a question for us. Anything I do,

52:49

I do? All right. So

52:53

on my menu, I have like cheesecakes

52:55

and doughnuts and cakes and

52:59

Simon rolls, like all those things.

53:01

And I want to know, I

53:03

want to know if you had an item

53:06

on my menu named after you.

53:08

Yeah, what would it be and

53:10

what would it be called? Well,

53:14

I would it because of this

53:16

podcast and how far

53:18

we've come. I at one point

53:21

I had a donut machine and

53:24

I got rid of that donut. So

53:27

if you were making donuts, I

53:29

would love for you to have Donnie's Donuts

53:31

on your menu, and it's and

53:34

it's an assortment of little donut holes

53:36

okay, chocolate, powdered

53:39

sugar, jelly, cinnamon,

53:43

and maybe a little bit of a sprinkles,

53:46

sprinkles, Okay.

53:48

I I

53:51

like peanut butter anything. Oh

53:53

hell yeah? Um, so I

53:56

would like a cupcake okay

53:59

that is peanut butter and chocolate

54:01

in the spirit of aese peanut butter cup but a cupcake.

54:04

And then and then there's some nuts on top,

54:07

okay. And then the title is put your nuts

54:09

on me, Put your nuts on me. I

54:13

like that. I have made

54:15

a chocolate a chocolate cupcake

54:17

filled with peanut butter pie filling.

54:20

Yeah, oh you have. Okay,

54:23

here's where crops on me? I like it. And

54:26

here's the problem with put your nuts on me? Not a

54:28

lot of There's gonna be some people that you're

54:30

not gonna that are not gonna be able to eat put your nuts

54:32

on me? Why because of the tree nut or

54:34

the nut. They're not going to order put your nuts on either.

54:37

So I do. My menu

54:40

is like separated out into things that you

54:42

know they're clearly nuts and

54:44

things and clearly not nuts and things.

54:46

But I do have a couple of peanut butter items on my I

54:48

don't think if you have a peanut allergy you're going to order

54:50

put your nuts on me? Right? Hey, Donald? Right?

54:54

But are you going to make these? Because if so, I really

54:56

want the people. I want people to go to your website. Here,

54:58

I am going to make that. I'm what I mean that they

55:02

could be made to order. But listen to order, Okay,

55:04

listen, all right, everyone's gonna go to your website. Say say

55:07

your Instagram again, it's

55:10

55:19

55:22

m D. Yeah, that's where I get. The

55:25

first thing I do when I go on Instagram

55:27

is I look at Donald to see if he's posted anything,

55:30

and then I go right to Sugar Drop

55:32

m D. Well, you know if I posted

55:58

tell everybody out there about the Sugar

56:01

Drop MD Instagram

56:03

site where you can go click

56:06

the lake and the bio which

56:08

will take you to the store and you

56:10

56:12

that delicious Sugar Drop EMPD

56:15

56:18

56:20

I think we should all give Sugar

56:23

Drop Empty lots of love because this

56:25

family had to pivot and made

56:28

this business. And I really hope,

56:30

really sincerely as supporters

56:32

56:34

you order all your exciting

56:37

baked goods, your your cakes, your

56:40

your Joel shaped

56:43

birthday cake, all from Hollyhock.

56:46

All right, Zach

56:50

wants you to put you and put your nuts on him. No,

56:52

what I meant put your nuts on me?

56:54

Right? Is that what it was called? Right? Put your nuts

56:57

on me? Which is great because I have very penny

56:59

names to items good and

57:01

I like a good pun. Now

57:04

it seems like you're fixing your own life. But now

57:06

it's time for America's favorite

57:09

The World the Earth's Favorite new segments,

57:12

Your Life, Planet Earth's Favorite

57:14

news segment, Holly,

57:17

It's time to fix

57:20

your life. Okay,

57:24

So, because I work at home

57:26

and my husband works at home and sort

57:29

of our businesses are all consuming,

57:32

I need help finding

57:34

a better balance between my

57:37

work life and home life because I feel

57:39

like it just never really ends. Like some people

57:42

have at nine to five and then they're just done. And

57:45

then I just feel like, right

57:48

now, it's really hard to shut that down

57:51

and and separate. Talking

57:55

to the right fella,

57:57

I know how you feel. It's really interesting

58:00

thing. I'm gonna be honest with

58:02

you, and when I say this, I don't want

58:04

you to get upset about it. But some

58:06

days you just have to take off

58:09

and take a break and just say,

58:11

you know what, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna

58:14

do one of those things today. I'm not gonna have a home

58:16

life today, or I'm not gonna work today.

58:19

Personally, I would say I'm not gonna work today.

58:21

Not having a home life alienates your

58:23

family and everything like that, your kids and your husband.

58:26

But some days you need at

58:29

least one. I mean, you're the boss of you,

58:31

You're the boss, So at least once a

58:33

month, twice a month, you guys

58:35

should take a break for yourselves and

58:37

spend the day together. Yeah

58:40

you know what I mean, preferably on the weekend

58:42

when the kids aren't I don't know how old your kids are, but

58:44

when they're not zooming, or they're not in school

58:47

or a class in class or everything like that, and

58:49

when your husband's not you know, out and

58:51

about delivering all of your baked delicious

58:53

goods. Yeah, um,

58:56

do you have do you have the ability? I

58:58

know, money, I imagine is is tight because

59:01

of the things you've told us, But do you have the ability a

59:03

family member or someone who could baby

59:05

sit for you? Guys? Just see you guys could go off and

59:07

just have some scheduled me time.

59:10

Well, we can, we can do that. I mean, mine's

59:12

my I only have one kid and he's thirteen,

59:15

so he's sort of self sufficient

59:17

now. And you, oh,

59:19

he can stay home on his own now. So yeah, why don't you guys?

59:21

You guys, I know you're super busy, right, it

59:23

seems to me. And I'm I'm

59:26

Donald, I I you know, you weren't

59:28

on the show yet, but he's told me

59:30

about how sometimes, you know,

59:33

wishes he was alone. Um, it

59:35

seems to me that you guys should schedule

59:39

not alone wishes I was alone with my wife.

59:42

Yeah, right, sorry me without his

59:44

wife. Um. It seems to me if you

59:46

could, if you could put it in the an account. You're just like you

59:48

schedule everything else, you guys, know, especially since

59:50

you've a thirteen year old and he can be on his own, that

59:52

you guys go. I know it's hard to go places,

59:54

but I don't know what it's like in Baltimore, but here it's not

59:56

many places you can go, but at least that you have something

59:59

schedule. So it's just as important in your schedule

1:00:01

as as your appointment to talk to a

1:00:03

new client. Is. You know that you two are going

1:00:06

to go do that this this time

1:00:08

each week. Yeah, the calendar is

1:00:10

important, yes, And if

1:00:12

there's room and the calendar calendar

1:00:14

to be spontaneous, take that.

1:00:16

Take that opportunity, you know what I mean. If

1:00:18

there is a bit of time that you guys

1:00:20

can have to yourself and it wasn't

1:00:23

something that was scheduled, take that

1:00:25

opportunity. Also, it's really fun if you surprise

1:00:27

the person, like you know that they

1:00:29

don't have something to do, or you can if you want to, if

1:00:31

you have to book them because your husband's super busy. You could

1:00:33

say, hey, I'm not even telling you, but

1:00:36

Saturday at one to three, don't

1:00:38

do anything because I have I have something I figured

1:00:40

out, Like I love doing that stuff. And

1:00:42

then then then then then you start looking for you

1:00:45

even more because the fun of surprising

1:00:47

the person with whatever random shit you put together.

1:00:49

Yeah, I love pining together a surprise. Yeah.

1:00:51

Yeah. You plan parties, so you know, like you could

1:00:53

like yeah, and it doesn't be big. It could literally

1:00:56

be like I packed a cooler full of beers and we're

1:00:58

going to the beach or we're going to the park or

1:01:00

whatever. I mean, you could be it could be minimal. But

1:01:02

it's just like a thing that you plan that he

1:01:04

knows nothing about. And you're you're

1:01:06

in Baltimore. You said that, you know what, you

1:01:08

know what's great about Baltimore in the Maryland

1:01:10

area just in general, the no

1:01:13

the crabs. They have this huge

1:01:15

crab population that it's like, you

1:01:18

know, to come in a big it's like five crabs

1:01:20

in a brown paper bag and you freaking

1:01:22

got a mallet and you smash the shit out of

1:01:24

them and eat crab. Me you're saying they should just killed

1:01:27

crabs for fun. No, the crabs

1:01:29

are already dead. They don't got to kill the crab. Somebody

1:01:31

else to do that fun. I grew up, I grew up catching

1:01:33

them. Yeah. Yeah, you know what I

1:01:35

mean. You're you're in You're

1:01:38

in a place that you can be

1:01:41

as adventurous as you want to be. You just

1:01:43

have to be willing to do it. But also it doesn't

1:01:45

have to be I find some of the most fun things we

1:01:47

do. It doesn't have to be some elaborate plan. I

1:01:49

mean, it's just like something you don't normally

1:01:52

do. Yeah, you know, we went for like

1:01:54

an epic hike in Malibu this weekend

1:01:57

with the dog. I just lost my

1:01:59

dogs, kind of like, let's get out there and and

1:02:01

and do something out of the norm to get our minds

1:02:04

off of it we want on. This epic hike in

1:02:06

Malibu. Didn't cost a dime. It's

1:02:08

just just a new experience and it was fun

1:02:10

and it was beautiful, and it was like it

1:02:12

was like a new thing, Like all right, let's just not

1:02:15

do our same shit every fucking weekend. Let's

1:02:17

just do something new and different. And yeah,

1:02:19

I think that that's really good for our brains,

1:02:21

especially now in this in this crazy well.

1:02:23

And you got to work out out of it too, so you definitely

1:02:26

didn't and then you got it, and then you got endorphins

1:02:28

and then you just yeah,

1:02:31

do you have hikes in Baltimore? Yeah,

1:02:33

yeah, we have. We're about

1:02:38

anybody know. That's the dumbest question

1:02:40

ever. Not I didn't mean. I

1:02:43

didn't mean. First of all, she's not in the city. I

1:02:45

don't know if she's in the city. And second of all, I don't know what the

1:02:47

fucking elevation is in Baltimore. They

1:02:50
