4:51
It's a lot of fun. All right, Let's let the legendary
4:53
Johnny ce in I forgot. I
4:56
felt bad that we didn't have him for My screw
4:58
Up. So I think we're gonna do a little my scho up
5:00
and then we'll do the new one. But we got to talk
5:02
to him about my screw up.
5:08
Thunder is applause, But John, my god,
5:20
there he is. What I
5:23
brought him? Handsome? Hello
5:25
fellas. How good
5:28
of Zachie. I haven't seen you. I get to
5:30
I have some one on one time
5:33
with Donald. We played golf
5:35
a couple of months ago. Yes we do, so
5:37
that was good. But I don't get to see you, Zachie.
5:39
I know I miss you, sir. I miss you a lot,
5:42
and I'm watching these episodes and
5:44
we will do lots of fawning over you. But
5:47
you are such a good actor, and it's so fun
5:49
to revisit these and just see
5:51
what an incredible performance you give
5:54
and continue to give in this show. So
5:56
Johnny, um, well wait till you're settled.
5:58
But I wanted to just say that the fans
6:01
have been clamoring for more Johnny
6:03
c McGinley, it's everything we get is all
6:05
right? Enough of the bullshit? Where is Johnny
6:07
c McGinley give us Johnny c McGinley
6:12
respectfully disagree. I don't ever try
6:14
to step on any fans toes. But uh,
6:17
that with Bill, when Bill came back, and when
6:19
with real Bill
6:22
on there. Uh
6:24
and then of course Josh he the other day
6:26
was just spectacular. Yeah.
6:29
Yeah, we had a lot of great feedback from the Josh
6:31
Frady. Yeah, Josh, Josh came on and
6:33
there we had a good show with Josh.
6:36
He did a sting man. Everyone said
6:38
his voice was so soothing, not not even
6:40
when he was singing. When he's I think Josh puts
6:42
on a little bit of a radio voice,
6:44
you know he was. That's definitely a fucking radio
6:46
voice. Man on
6:49
this dude got on the mica was like, hello,
6:51
my name was Josh Raiding. Yeah, he was seducing
6:54
the world and I'm gonna drop my I'm gonna
6:56
drop my pitch down
6:58
a few out there. Yeah he did do that. The fuck
7:00
I need to be I
7:04
wouldn't know Josh's voice from anything
7:06
other than being
7:09
drunk at four o'clock in the morning. And screaming at
7:11
him how much I love him. So I
7:15
wouldn't I wouldn't know Josh's
7:17
voice, his real speaking voice
7:19
if they hit me over the fucking kid. But you're
7:21
right. He did do that all of a sudden, and we were like okay,
7:24
and we're recording, and he was like, yeah, I just want to
7:26
say that I love being on the radio.
7:28
And it was like he was It was like he was in
7:30
that uh and a guest ire.
7:33
Yeah, yeah,
7:37
it was like he was in that sweaty ball sketch. I
7:39
just want to I just want to put those sweaty balls in my mouth.
7:42
I can't wait to eat your sweaty balls. Yeah,
7:44
I love that. I love that sketch. That
7:46
was such a funny sketch like public they were like a public
7:49
access. Yes, we just wanted to say that
7:52
I loved it. How do you how do you
7:54
like to how do you like to eat your
7:56
sweaty balls? Oh? I love it to just pop
7:58
him in my mouth. I with my mouth real
8:01
wide and I throw those sweaty
8:03
balls in my mouth. Wait.
8:07
We never counted into the song Jenna
8:10
stories about show
8:13
we made about
8:15
a bunch of dots and nurses and jan
8:19
said he's stories never
8:24
so YadA around here, a yadoo
8:27
around here.
8:34
We are we are fortunate and blessed
8:36
to have our co star Johnny
8:38
c McGinley on my plan. Um
8:41
was originally gonna have Johnny on for My screw
8:43
Up, but because of Donald's work
8:45
schedule and COVID and changing everything
8:47
around, it didn't work out because, uh,
8:50
we actually ended up recording at the last minute, and I literally
8:53
called Josh Rayden. I was like, will you be our guest?
8:56
So, Johnny, I just wanted to start
8:58
off and talk about your impressions this
9:00
many years later seeing My screw Up. You
9:03
know what many of the fans think is
9:05
is one of the finest episodes we did
9:07
in nine years, and it's certainly at the center
9:09
of it is your incredible performance,
9:11
and I just wanted to hear your thoughts
9:14
on it watching it this many years later.
9:17
Um, well, I can't. I
9:19
can't start with I mean, I went through the
9:21
episode and the first
9:24
notes and I'll just bang them. I'll just bang them
9:26
out with you and some well
9:28
no, you guys didn't really touch on these,
9:31
uh with Joshi, so these
9:33
will be relatively fresh.
9:36
Uh. I thought that
9:38
Krista looked apt. She always looked beautiful,
9:40
but I thought Krista looked I guess she
9:42
was between kids and
9:45
she's just killing her jeans,
9:47
killing it. She just
9:51
looked like a smoke show. Yeah,
9:54
Zachie, the golf club to the nuts. I completely
9:56
forgot about it. And what
9:58
the heck did you did you have on a big steel plate
10:01
or something. I must have had a big cup on, obviously,
10:03
and more than a cup, because you
10:05
can't take that without it, Man's not a way. Because
10:08
but also Tara bliss her heart. She may not
10:10
be the most gifted physical comedian. So
10:12
I'm sure that club was just coming back.
10:15
I don't remember it at all, but I do. I can
10:17
assure you I had a cup on. There's a handful
10:20
of times when I would be doing stunts
10:22
and they'd be like, I think you want to cup for this one, and
10:24
I would be like, I just want to come for all of them, just in
10:26
case. Absolutely. Let's
10:30
that's like they have a thing called a
10:32
it's a girdle that you can put on that's
10:35
from in football. It's almost it's a steel
10:37
from football, but it's called a tortishel tortoiseshell
10:40
and you can put a tortoiseshell girdle on and
10:42
to protect your hips and your lower back,
10:44
and it doesn't read. It's just a thin piece
10:46
of plastic and you just put
10:48
on you put on the tortoishelf. Your
10:50
your your life is going to be better. Yeah,
10:53
I think. I think once you're definitely better.
10:55
Yeah, you never. I don't remember that one at
10:57
all. I don't even know if that was a real club or if
10:59
they gave a foam end to it or not. But yeah,
11:02
she did take a whack to my grind. Also,
11:05
you tearing into the photo is almost
11:07
like something I don't know if you are versed
11:10
enough in Jerry Lewis. And that's not condescending. There's
11:12
some people who don't like Jerry Lewis. He's a really
11:14
great physical comedian. And you try to
11:17
tear into the photo completely
11:19
self generated, and it's completely
11:21
committed, and he totally
11:24
caught me off guard. And so he's
11:27
such a weakling. He can't rip it. I'm
11:30
like doing that. Wait,
11:32
hold on, have you ever tried to rip a Polaroid's right?
11:39
Right, So let's let's give JD some credit. It
11:41
is very difficult to rip a polaroid when
11:44
Brennan says, you've slept with both we have something
11:46
in common. You've slept with both of my sisters.
11:48
We have something in common. That's
11:50
just Bill being devious. Yeah,
11:53
Yeah, the man has a twisted twist.
11:56
And then he circles back to the joke later on
11:58
when he you guys are walking down the whole and
12:00
he says, I find Danny
12:02
to be more of a of a yeah,
12:05
and christ is more brutal. And it
12:08
just makes you so, it makes you you,
12:10
Zach, you can see, it's just making you uncomfortable.
12:12
Well, they really do talk, not like
12:15
Christa and her brother and uh and
12:17
Bill are all close, you know, and they must
12:20
have obviously been the inspo for for some
12:22
of this. And there's definitely times
12:24
where you're like so cringey around them because they
12:26
do not censor themselves. They're a lot like that. I
12:29
thought when when somebody,
12:31
oh, there goes missus
12:33
Carlo butt face, uh maybe
12:36
left. It's just stupid
12:38
joke. It's a stupid joke. But
12:40
because for the fans, if you're listening, if you don't remember,
12:43
Donald's the plan is he's gonna have
12:45
his mole removed and they're gonna graft skin
12:47
from his ass, and
12:49
so everyone starts saying, well, your name's gonna
12:51
be butt face, then my
12:54
name will not be butt face. It's not gonna have Turke
12:56
runs around hospital, but you will not be calling
12:58
me butt face. Is not gonna happened, and
13:00
Elliott goes to town with it. Yeah,
13:03
I thought I thought it was interesting that the writers
13:06
snuck in that Cox had been there
13:08
for sixty straight hours. I guess
13:11
most of us have never worked sixty straight hours,
13:13
and so I thought that was interesting. And I'm sure that must
13:16
have been a gold mine nugget for me back when
13:18
I was breaking this thing down, that when when
13:21
Brendan does that incompetent puppets
13:23
thing with Sarah, it looks effortless.
13:26
The two of them, it's just effortless.
13:30
That was such a great moment for both of them. Yeah,
13:32
and then I mean what really kills it
13:34
though, was hard walking away and him
13:36
falling off the counter like he's still tethered
13:38
to her, you know what I mean? It was the
13:41
two of them. Yeah, they're just
13:43
both really I mean, I think Sarah
13:45
walks on water, but Brendan also, he's
13:49
really good. He's really good. Yeah, he's really
13:51
good, and watching the episode,
13:53
you forget how charming is. Like this man was
13:55
an absolute movie star, you know what I mean,
13:57
like big time movie star, biggest movies,
14:00
some of the biggest movies of all time, and so
14:03
you forget you you know, you
14:05
get caught up in the fact that you're just working with another
14:07
actor, but you forget there's a reason why
14:09
this person has all of
14:11
this stuff behind him, all of this energy
14:14
behind him. And when you watch it on
14:16
screen and it shows you're it's
14:18
always you're always reminded. Like, so watching
14:20
this episode, like right away, it was like, holy shit,
14:24
it's kind of a fine it's kind of a self
14:26
serving, kind of self rewarding
14:28
epiphany when you see it and
14:31
then you get to realize it. You think, oh, Brendan
14:33
so handsome and he's so talented, blah blah blah blah.
14:35
And then he just knocks off up
14:37
a dumb puppet show with Sarah
14:40
all right in the middle of the day the shooting. It's
14:42
a fourteen hour day and they just they crush
14:44
it. Right, Johnny, do you did
14:47
you have the experience watching this knowing
14:49
the reveal at the end in a new way because neither
14:52
Donald nor I had had seen it, you
14:54
know, since we made it, really and
14:56
it was kind of fun to see all the little easter
14:59
egg hidden mull when um, you
15:01
know, knowing the reveal
15:03
that you wouldn't know if it was your first time. But
15:08
what really struck me was
15:11
the how seamless
15:13
the ensemble is. Everybody
15:16
is. This is season three, it's
15:18
the middle of the season and the
15:21
writers are cooking. I guess Garrett
15:23
and Neil wrote it, Yes, and
15:25
yeah they did, and and Chris
15:27
Kotch is in really good form
15:29
directing this thing, and he knows to let
15:31
the horses run and
15:34
every everybody, Judy and Donald
15:36
and Zachie kind of lifting
15:38
the whole first act, kind of carrying the first
15:40
act, you know. The pass out through the bushes
15:43
is it's fantastic. It's
15:45
great. And it looks like you. He looks
15:48
like he scared the living shit out of you when he jumps
15:50
on that car. I think he did. I
15:52
think I think there was the giant
15:54
pad back there and I just fucking leaped
15:57
into the air backwards onto it. It It was awesome.
16:00
Just establishes a ton of things. It doesn't look
16:02
like your acting. It looks like someone scared
16:04
the piss out of you. And that
16:06
that's I called setting the table. That sets
16:09
the table, and that largely
16:11
tells us a ton about your relationship with him.
16:14
Um. I
16:17
was struck by how great, uh the
16:19
whole the ensemble, isn't it? And I
16:22
heard Donald talking about that scene with Kenny
16:24
in the closet and he's
16:26
just he's
16:30
money, Vince
16:32
Vaughan Ley, He's just money.
16:35
And you know he has to affect
16:37
this crazy almost caricature
16:39
sometimes and then when he wants to shift
16:42
down into it. You can see that he ran
16:44
the Shakespeare Festival down in Louisville.
16:46
You know he was freaking, you know he
16:48
was. There's nothing, there's nothing
16:51
non veteran about him. And it's that Chris,
16:53
that Chris Cootch let him have a no look
16:56
at the end of that scene
16:58
where Judy thanks him or or whatever.
17:00
The button is on the scene and he
17:03
just doesn't know look exit and it's
17:05
so clean and he doesn't have to look back
17:07
to to accept her gratitude
17:10
or anything. He's done. He said what he means
17:12
to say. Now he's leaving and
17:15
it's just really clean. It's a special
17:17
moment too. Because you know, like you said, I think
17:20
Ken even articulated this when he was on the show, particularly
17:22
he was talking about season one. He felt that he didn't really
17:25
like it. He felt he was too cartoonish and he
17:27
and he wished he'd been directed to be smaller.
17:30
I you know, we think he's hilarious
17:33
and all of it's perfect, but when you do, when
17:35
when Kelso does get a moment like this
17:37
finally in season three where it's just can
17:40
being able to drop in and be a real, completely
17:43
empathetic human being, uh,
17:46
you really get a glimpse of the level of actor
17:49
that he is. It's a it's
17:51
a it's like sure, you
17:53
know, I was watching TV the other
17:55
night and Ken was on Deep Star Trek
17:57
Generation Next Generation and
18:00
he's working with Will Wheaton on
18:03
the show, and it's a it's a younger Ken
18:05
Jenkins. It's not you know Ken Jenkins when he
18:07
was doing Scrubs and after it's a
18:09
much younger Ken Jenkins. And
18:12
I remember thinking, holy, you
18:14
know, he's still he had he had
18:16
he had the chops back then. To
18:18
do Star Trek isn't no easy feat,
18:20
you know what I mean, if everybody could, you
18:22
know, Star Trek in some ways is like Shakespeare.
18:24
You gotta talk science and sound convincing.
18:27
In a lot of ways. Ken was able
18:29
to do it no problem. It's
18:31
an easy thing. You watch movies like
18:33
Courage on the Fire and he's in scenes with Denzel
18:36
Washington and you're like, holy shit, Ken
18:38
freaking this is something he's been doing
18:40
this forever. I can't express it enough.
18:43
I've said it from the beginning. He's like the MVP
18:45
of our crew man because he takes he
18:47
takes the hate. He's the character that
18:50
everybody loves to hate. He's just an
18:52
MVP. Like whenever the hospital
18:54
is against the whole the whole cast,
18:56
it's usually Ken's character. It's usually Kelso's
18:59
character who pulls everybody back in to
19:01
figure shit out, you know what I mean. You would think it
19:03
would be Cox or you would think it
19:05
would be the go to mentor,
19:07
But whenever the hospital's kicking our ass
19:10
and not Ken, he's the one that usually
19:13
turns us around. All
19:15
right, Well, let's segue Johnny to the to
19:17
the end, because we want to spend a lot
19:19
of time on the next episode. So let's
19:21
talk about this. First of all, your performance.
19:25
I joined millions of people in saying, this
19:27
is a very very fine performance
19:29
you give in this episode, and um,
19:32
you know some of everyone's I posted
19:34
this on Twitter the
19:37
other day. I said, we're going to be discussing this moment,
19:39
and it was a still of you and me in the moment you
19:41
have the realization. And the overwhelming
19:44
response was like, I'm not ready to cry. I'm
19:46
not ready to cry. I can't deal with it this
19:48
many years later, I'm still gonna sob So
19:52
just talk about in particular that
19:54
that funeral scene. I mean you just that
19:57
moment gives me goose bumps even describing
19:59
it. But and when when I when I say, where
20:01
do you think we are? And you have this realization? Well
20:05
I was. I heard Donald the other day talking
20:07
about going through his divorce,
20:09
and I was shoved
20:12
deep in a divorce and I
20:14
was feeling horribly inadequate
20:17
as a dad to a special needs child,
20:20
and I was going to the shrink whenever
20:22
I wasn't on the set, I was working
20:24
with Barry, and I was trying
20:27
to wade myself.
20:29
I was trying to chart a course through what
20:32
was really confusing to me as a I'll
20:34
make it up A forty year old man who
20:37
was I've
20:40
never been more had
20:42
my chops finer as an actor, and
20:45
then off the set, I felt like
20:47
a complete and utter failure,
20:50
and I was trying to reconcile
20:52
that every single waking second.
20:55
And so when I got
20:57
to do this scene, a
21:00
lot of the inadequacies
21:03
that were profoundly right
21:05
in the front of my skull were
21:08
resonating. And so when you
21:10
guys touched me, I couldn't.
21:13
I couldn't keep it together, I
21:15
wrote, I wrote down in my notebook that there
21:17
that my tribe is scattered, and it's
21:20
from a poem that I found at
21:22
that time. It's in my notebook Um with
21:26
Covid Layers by Stanley Konans.
21:28
I'll read it to you. And this was what was going
21:30
through my head, or I was trying to keep this in my head.
21:33
And then all of all I could think about was
21:37
what forty years of trying
21:39
to do the right thing and let up to when feeling
21:41
like an abject failure as
21:43
a father and a husband, and
21:47
coming back to this house every night solo
21:49
and the whole thing, it
21:52
felt like the floor dropped out. In season three
21:54
and that Billy wrote this for
21:57
Cox's arc dealt
22:01
more with loss, and the loss that I
22:03
was trying to reconcile was,
22:06
what do you what's this adding
22:09
up to? If I couldn't be
22:12
everything whatever I perceived as possible
22:15
to a two or three
22:17
year old with special needs and a
22:20
failed marriage. And so I
22:23
came across this thing the layers, as
22:25
I'm always searching for ways that resonate
22:28
for me. And it's a guy named
22:30
Stanley Kunitz, and he goes, I've walked through many
22:32
lives, some of them my own, and I
22:35
am not who I was, though some
22:37
principle of being abides, from
22:39
which I struggle not to stray. When
22:41
I look behind, as I'm compelled to look before
22:43
I can gather strength to proceed on my journey,
22:46
I see the milestones dwindling toward the
22:48
horizon, and the slow fires trailing from
22:51
the abandoned campsites, over
22:53
which scavenger angels wheel on heavy
22:55
wings. Oh, I have made a tribe
22:58
out of my true affections, and my
23:00
tribe is scattered. How
23:02
shall the heart be reconciled to its feast
23:05
of losses? In a rising wind?
23:07
The manic dust of my friends, those
23:09
who fell along the way bitterly
23:11
stings my fades. Yet I
23:14
turn, I turn, exalting somewhat
23:16
with my will intact to go wherever
23:19
I need to go. And every stone
23:21
of the road presses to me. In
23:23
my darkest night, when the moon's covered and
23:25
I roamed through the wreckage, a
23:28
nimbus clouded voice directed
23:30
me live in the layers, not
23:32
on the litter. And though I lack the
23:34
art to decipher it, no doubt the next chapter
23:36
of my book of transformations is already
23:38
written. And I am not done with
23:40
my changes. And that's what I brought to
23:42
that funeral, and it
23:45
resonates to me for me to
23:47
this day. And because
23:49
I couldn't organize what I
23:52
couldn't organize what was going on in the shrink's
23:55
office every day away from the set, and
23:57
so I needed to lean into Cunan
24:00
his piece. And then you guys were unbelievably
24:02
supportive. And ah,
24:06
we had Olympia Tococcus as a master teacher
24:08
at NYU, and one of her the whole
24:10
things about weeping in front
24:12
of the class, which is all actors want to do.
24:15
She used to say that in Vegas terms,
24:18
when you go to Vegas, there's a shoe which is
24:20
about eight decks of cards and they're
24:22
all shuffled. And she always
24:24
told us to keep a few in the shoe. And
24:27
I tried. I tried, but
24:29
I couldn't keep it together. It's
24:32
tough. That's that's a very hard you know.
24:34
There are some actors who can do that, and God
24:36
bless them, and that's why they win awards and the
24:39
freaking Academy Awards and stuff. But once
24:41
I get to the point where I release, it's
24:44
coming out. It's coming. It's not stopping. I'm
24:46
sorry. I wish I could stop it. I wish I
24:48
could pull it back in and then regenerate
24:51
that energy again. But once it starts,
24:53
it's like keeping let's
24:55
roll, just keep rolling and start all over,
24:58
or however we need to get this because I'm going to I
25:01
can't stop crying. I have such a hard time at that. You
25:03
know what, It's really powerful, Johnny, when the camera pushes
25:05
in on you and you're crying and
25:09
you allow JD
25:11
to put his hand on his shoulder. I thought that
25:13
was very moving because that's all that's all you're going
25:15
to allow, and that's all JD, you
25:19
know, reads the moment, and that's all It's appropriate
25:21
obviously, and then the camera pushes
25:23
in on you and your crying, but you also see your jaw,
25:25
your classic Johnny c jaw moving, and
25:29
I was thinking that, like Cox
25:33
is is just
25:35
going to be as still in stoic as
25:37
he can, but he as
25:39
he usually is, but he can't control the
25:42
fact that these tears are just going to start streaming down
25:44
his face. And so my interpretation
25:46
was the muscles in your face were like it
25:48
was everything he could do to try and fight
25:51
the emotion, but he but
25:53
he was losing that battle and they were just going to fly
25:55
down his face. I could hear Olympia
25:57
saying keep a few in the shoe, and yeah, I
25:59
was battling. And I love
26:01
when we can see actors battle against shit. But yeah,
26:04
I will also tell you, in all fairness, when
26:06
when I think Christoph first and then and
26:09
then you touched me, there
26:11
was no Cox there that I was craving human
26:15
engagement. That wasn't Cox, that was
26:17
I was McKinley. I was like somebody
26:20
fucking yeah,
26:23
And none of that was written. We just kind of, like I think we
26:25
both Kristy and I um figured
26:29
out what we would do in that situation,
26:31
you know, It's a powerful
26:33
thing that Jordan, the way Jordan is. You know,
26:35
she's selfless in in
26:38
this situation where you
26:40
know, she lost her brother, but
26:43
she understands that Cox
26:46
is hurting way more than she is. You know,
26:48
she might be hurting just as much as he is, but
26:50
she's willing to sacrifice that
26:53
pain and push that pain down. Now we're
26:55
kind of jumping into the next episode, but she's
26:57
willing to sacrifice that pain and push
27:00
it down, bury it
27:03
to support her fragile husband
27:05
and that or fragile boyfriend. And I
27:07
thought that was I thought that was really
27:10
powerful. I thought that was very, very,
27:12
very very We
27:14
didn't we don't ever see that of Jordan, you
27:16
know. And and well,
27:18
I think, you know, if you think, if you take the inspiration,
27:22
Jordan is like Christa in in a lot of ways.
27:25
Well, I was gonna say, you know, it took a while for Christa
27:27
to warm up too, Like no, but I'm
27:29
saying I'll tell you Christa has a lot in
27:31
common with Jordan. She's obviously written for and she
27:33
can be very tough and hardened.
27:36
But then when you get to know where and
27:38
the moment calls for it, you will not find a
27:40
more loyal, loving, care the supported person.
27:44
I've had some dark moments in my life and
27:46
that woman has always been there
27:48
for me and said come over and we're gonna
27:50
have wine and we're gonna talk, and
27:53
she and so, you
27:56
know, just like the just like
27:58
Christa, I think Jordan New
28:01
in this particular moment, even though it's my brother,
28:03
I'm it isn't hitting me like it's hitting my
28:05
person I love, So forget my needs.
28:08
I'm going to take care of this man selfless.
28:11
I was. I'm
28:14
very comfortable in post. I had a post
28:16
production company in the Brill Building for almost fifteen
28:18
years, and as you guys know, I used to go
28:20
the editing department was
28:23
right in the hospital where we're shooting, and
28:25
I used to go down there with Rick Blue and John
28:27
Michelle and I watched stuff because
28:29
if I didn't have anything to do, I want to
28:31
pastor them. And so I saw the moment where
28:34
Zachie goes, where do you think you are? And
28:36
then it's a two shot and Cox
28:39
turns towards the lens and he figures it out
28:41
and John Michelle had cut off and way
28:44
too quick before he realized where he was.
28:46
And you got to you got you've
28:48
got to stay on Cox until he does
28:51
that dopey smile acknowledging that he knows
28:53
where he is. And it's an I said, even if
28:56
it's an ad of two seconds, take it, take
28:58
it somewhere else, take it away somewhere and
29:00
you could argue over two and a half seconds like
29:03
the Magna Carter because the
29:05
show was so tight. And to
29:07
his eternal credit, he
29:09
stays on Cox and Jackie until
29:11
Cox realizes and he does
29:13
that kind of smile that
29:16
this is not a kid's birthday party. This is, in
29:18
fact a funeral. And that's what changed
29:20
the whole episode for me, that John
29:22
Michelle stayed on him long enough so we could see
29:24
this guy arrived at a conclusion
29:28
and instead of just banging that
29:30
big crane shot, which is what we go to next,
29:33
and we got to see this guy arrived
29:35
at what's going on.
29:38
And when John Michelle did that, it changed the whole
29:40
thing to me. It's also a nice cut that shows that Ben's
29:42
no longer there. That's really gratifying. Yeah,
29:44
I mean, that's the that's the you know, those
29:46
two moments combined are the holy shit moment
29:49
that big reveal you know we
29:52
were, I know you were talking about it.
29:54
It struck me so different, man. It's like
29:56
there's so many hints and so many clues
29:58
that he's not there. One
30:00
being the camera Johnny, did you know the camera
30:02
one? I didn't really know the camera one until I read it on the web.
30:06
No, what's the camera one? So he says, you
30:08
say, you still messing around with that stupid
30:11
cameras all the time, And he goes, I'll be taking
30:13
pictures till the day I die. And
30:15
the moment he shows the moment
30:17
he shows up as a hallucination. He no longer
30:19
has a camera with him anymore. Totally
30:22
missed it till you just told me. I did I have to
30:24
say? I had to say. I read it online. I didn't get
30:26
it myself. But it's great, all
30:29
right, Why don't we segue Donald's
30:32
as good podcast host? Should we take a break?
30:34
Probably, Dan, let's take a break, and when we come back,
30:36
we'll hum
30:39
the new one, which is um the episode
30:41
is called My Tormented mentor
30:43
will be right back after these fine words
30:48
formember
30:56
back when we well listen, do we not deliver?
30:59
You guys said we want more? John C McGinley,
31:01
and here he is. We delivered, and
31:04
we're going to talk about a great episode
31:06
that continues Cox's
31:08
recovering from losing his best friend, my
31:11
tormented mentor, which introduces
31:13
a new character named doctor Grace Miller played
31:15
by Bellamy Young. She's
31:18
she gets the gorgeous woman
31:20
scrubs intro, only to
31:22
reveal that she's sort of the female
31:24
equivalent tough ass talking
31:27
doctor Cox type. Do you
31:29
want me to do the recap or would you rather I do?
31:31
I was just just trying to get
31:33
a Bellamy shout out in that, and you
31:35
know, because usually what happens is I do a recap
31:38
and then we start talking about the I'm sorry,
31:40
Donald, I got excited to introduce Bellamy
31:42
Young, but let me get my stop Watch out. I
31:46
too, am a Bellamy Young fan. I
31:48
only drove a scandal. I
31:50
only do this stop Watch thing for the guy
31:52
who makes the graph. That's the really only reason
31:55
I keep doing. All
31:59
Right, we're ready on your marks, gets that go.
32:01
Cox is having a hard time getting ober Ben's
32:04
death. JD wants to be the shoulder
32:06
Cox needs to lean on. There's a new
32:08
boss in the r and all the Scalpel
32:10
jockeys don't know how to act around her.
32:14
All the women in the hospital are frustrated and
32:16
fed up with the lack of respect they received
32:18
from their male counterparts. It's a conversation
32:21
that's been on the table for decades and
32:23
still needs to be addressed. After all
32:25
these years, equality in the workplace still
32:28
hasn't come to fruition. This
32:30
is one of those issues that will be addressed
32:32
until the matter is settled. And
32:35
I'm all for that, Amen,
32:37
Donald, thirty five seconds, graph
32:39
guy. It's fascinating that
32:41
we're having these conversations
32:44
back when we were doing this in two thousand and four,
32:48
And of course they've become so much more
32:51
in the public discourse now with the Me Too
32:53
movement. But here we are in
32:56
two thousand and four. They're having
32:59
to put out a sort of a suggestion box type
33:01
thing where if you're feeling like you're being
33:04
sexually harassed you can report people.
33:06
Um, and the two main people uh
33:09
in the room are Kelso and the Todd
33:11
Yes, well, we knew that Todd would be in there,
33:14
yeah, And we kind of knew that Kelso would
33:16
be in there, yeah, you know, but we didn't know that
33:18
Cox was going to be in there. Now Cox is in
33:20
there for calling me girls names. It's not nearly as egregious
33:22
as the ship that the Todds is
33:28
on. You, Zach Well,
33:31
I thought it was pretty funny that, Um, I
33:33
mean, they decided to make Todd so
33:36
fucking stupid. He's washing the
33:39
dude. Not only is he one he can't
33:41
spell, we learned it. Todd is a dummy. He can't
33:43
spell. No, he's washing his hands. He's a
33:45
surgeon. He's washing his hands with gloves on. Right,
33:48
But I think right, but I think he's right. What
33:50
a moron? Not only that he goes to the sexual
33:52
harassment meeting with an I Love Vagina
33:54
t shirt? What
33:57
kind of moron is that? The great got
33:59
it? I got a circle back. I can't remember if you guys
34:01
told the story or if our creator. That's
34:04
how I'm gonna refer to Billy from that one, as if
34:06
our creator told the story. But
34:09
when we first started early
34:12
on, Billy gathered everybody in what is
34:14
the cafeteria where
34:16
we should is the biggest room in the hospital, the whole
34:18
cast and crew, and I'll make it
34:20
up to one hundred and ten people or so, and
34:23
he did his no asshole policy
34:26
speech, and what he meant was, you don't
34:28
have to come to work and be
34:31
on pins and needles, but you have to come
34:33
to work and treat each other with respect. And
34:35
Billy, who does not like confrontation
34:37
and is not mister tough guy,
34:40
when he laid that down, he meant
34:42
it. And so if you come to work and you're
34:44
an asshole, and this circles right back into
34:46
the sexual harassment, but he wasn't just talking
34:49
about sexual harassment. That if
34:51
you can't be nice to each other, you will
34:53
be fired. And subsequently a couple of people
34:55
were for breaking the no asshole
34:57
policy. And I've brought that with to
35:00
a couple of different things that I've produced
35:02
since I bring the casting crew
35:04
around. I'm sure not as elegant and graceful
35:07
as Billy doing it, but if you
35:09
can't be nice, and Billy knew one
35:11
thing we didn't that we were going to be there for quite
35:13
a while as far as years go, and
35:16
he introduced the no asshole policy, and
35:19
I've stolen it on everything I do. Everything
35:21
I produced, I tell the casting crew there's
35:24
a no asshole policy here. You can do
35:26
whatever you want, but be nice or I'm gonna
35:28
fire you. Yeah, that's great, you
35:30
know, I just can't put his money where
35:32
his mouth was. I don't understand how you can
35:34
go to work and just be an asshole. Like,
35:37
there's a lot of pricks out there. There's a lot of
35:39
assholes out there, you know. Whenever I started, whenever
35:41
you start a new job, I
35:43
had a friend who would always be like, who's the asshole?
35:46
Like you'd have to find out who they are? So
35:48
let me ask a question. And if I'm wrong, I'm
35:50
wrong, but I want to ask this question. If
35:53
somebody's being an asshole, right,
35:58
is it just you're fired? Or
36:01
if somebody's being an asshole, at what point
36:04
does it become all right? I can't
36:06
take this anymore. You
36:09
are going to be escorted out of here. Seems
36:12
really nearly fired people. You have to they have to
36:14
be doing something that is affecting the
36:16
workplace, and in this obviously
36:19
in this case of sexual harassment,
36:22
but it could be um, you
36:24
know, just being a hard especially on
36:26
a movie set, someone who's just bringing a toxic
36:28
energy and and and making everyone
36:30
not do their their best. Um.
36:33
There are lots of times when characters
36:36
get written off of shows and it's
36:38
for no other reason that everyone was like fuck
36:40
this. But I think, by the way,
36:42
this is not exclusive to actors, because yeah,
36:47
I'm about to say somebody people were not actors.
36:49
Yo. No, I don't think any of the more
36:52
actors. But I'm saying I was using
36:54
the story of the times
36:57
that when you hear
36:59
like creative differences, that often means
37:01
the person these were an asshole. Right.
37:05
I always dot admit they just saw differently
37:07
than the director saw it. But yeah, I get it.
37:10
Well. I mean sometimes that you
37:13
know a lot of times when it's like date date
37:16
conflicts, it's like no conflicts,
37:21
The dates didn't conflict. The person was like, I gotta
37:23
tell you, I thought Laverne had a couple of a
37:25
couple of one liners here to drop me. The
37:27
Hilton sisters thing, yes when she goes
37:29
other way around, sugar, and then when
37:32
she when she drops mister Roberts
37:34
flex to wear my proceeds. Yeah,
37:36
and she does it so dead, so
37:39
dead. So if LaVerne's story is
37:41
true, and we don't really know, um,
37:45
mister and missus Hilton named
37:47
their two daughters after LaVerne's
37:49
breath. Now, I'm not sure how that would
37:52
have transpired, but
37:55
she just yeah,
37:58
she's very funny. Also tell Uni
38:01
maybe maybe
38:03
left no whack back to anybody's unibrow, But
38:05
that made me left, he said, my waxers in the
38:07
Bahamas? What was
38:09
I supposed to do? Get another
38:12
one that came out of nowhere?
38:14
I mean, why does Todd just randomly have a unibrow?
38:16
There's no other reference to it. It's just it's just that's
38:20
writers climbing the wall in season three,
38:24
I love, I would love. I'm thinking that would be the funniest
38:26
thing to be in the writer's room, be like, all right, who's going to be in charge
38:29
of writing the Todd jokes for this episode?
38:32
So you know, uh, do you
38:34
know that the writer's
38:36
rooms there were two before the strike,
38:38
there was seven in each room and Bill
38:40
with leapfrog back and forth as each
38:43
episode was written. It was the psychiatric
38:45
ward of the hospital. Yeah. Yeah,
38:48
imagine the energy that was steward
38:50
in those rooms. Absolutely. Um.
38:53
How about when when Donald goes to
38:55
Todd hot chick at twelve o'clock
38:58
and he looks at and he
39:00
looks up, what
39:02
a moron is a hot cheek on the ceiling?
39:05
Right, He's a moron? So
39:08
the janitor and Ted we learn um,
39:10
Yes, this is a joke
39:12
that not a lot of people paid attention to. Not
39:15
a lot of people paid attention to this joke, because
39:17
this joke should have been running for it. Ever,
39:20
this is a joke that could have gone on and on
39:22
and on and on and on. We learned that the janitor
39:25
and Ted frequent a Korean
39:27
singles night at a Korean church, and
39:31
the janitor brings the
39:33
date to the work the next day. I mean,
39:36
are we supposed to infer that she's
39:38
left over? And also
39:40
it turns out that he's multi lingual.
39:43
Yeah, yes, they both are. They both
39:46
are they well,
39:48
they both know enough conversational Korean
39:50
Johnny to hit on on Korean single women.
39:53
It's it's not unusual, but for
39:56
some reason, I guess because I don't
39:58
get to watch them all. But when every time
40:01
Sam opens his mouth and off freaking episodes,
40:03
I'm dying when he dumps that
40:05
fucking cookie.
40:09
Yeah, never
40:13
have been such a great spin off of all the
40:15
secondary characters, like custodians,
40:18
great legal custodians. But I mean like going
40:20
into the lives of you know, I
40:23
don't know, you know, how these days
40:25
a show will do something like a totally different
40:27
episode. You know, there was an episode of Master
40:30
of None that was went off and
40:32
started following people that had never been in the show before,
40:34
and then at the end it had it had a purpose, and it
40:36
was really cool. If we were making this show
40:38
today, you could do a whole episode where was like we
40:41
just follow Sam and like it's like he's
40:43
not even in the hostel. He has like he has like a
40:45
week off. I just want to follow a week
40:47
of Ted's Like, I
40:52
gotta tell you. I've told you this before, but
40:55
you dancing is the biggest
40:57
gift to the writer's room in the history of
40:59
the world. They use it with everything. It's
41:02
it's we need, we need, we need a
41:04
special moment Donald dance. It
41:06
was good though it was gold. I'd forgotten. You
41:08
know, your other one gets so much attention.
41:10
I didn't remember this moment. I didn't
41:12
either. I didn't remember it either. Now
41:15
are you singing MC hammer?
41:18
Yes? But is hammer
41:20
playing on the boombox? Or is it you playing hammer
41:23
on the boombox? No, it's it's it's
41:25
it's not hammer on the It's
41:27
not hammer. She calls me hammer because
41:29
of my dancing. Oh, but I say a rap
41:32
going, or you're just rapping something? What are you? Are
41:34
you rapping? I forgot. I think there's a rap going. I think
41:36
there's music. I only ask because on scrubs Wiki
41:38
it says um that it's
41:41
here comes the Hammer originally by
41:43
Hammer, performed by Donald Fazon.
41:48
That's not true. It's not true. No,
41:50
that wasn't me rapping. That wasn't that
41:52
wass Wicky? Well, what's what's
41:54
his name? Trevor, Yeah, Trevor, Yeah,
41:56
Trevor, get it together, Trevor. Actually,
41:58
let's try Trevor here, Daniel and Joel,
42:01
Trevor, do you know that that's sorry,
42:04
we've we've discovered a mistake on scrubs.
42:06
Wicky. You can you can try and defend
42:08
it right now if you want to, Trevor. Yeah, Trevor, How
42:10
would you let such a horrible
42:12
mistake get through on scrubs? Wicki, that is
42:15
not Donald rapping as MC hammer. Are
42:17
you saying all African Americans sound alike?
42:19
Trevor, trev
42:24
trev you don't have to answer
42:26
that. You don't have to
42:28
answer that. You
42:31
walk away from that one, because you're in trouble if
42:33
you answer that one. All right, he's
42:35
been he's been disciplined. There's no way
42:37
to answer that. Hey, there's Zach, Donald, Joel
42:40
and Daniel. It's the Internet. It's
42:42
littered with misinformation. Apologies
42:45
about the error on the wiki. I fixed
42:47
the edit that Donald was the one rapping.
42:49
I think I was just mesmerized by his dancing. Johnny,
42:52
Is that a Star Wars pinball machine in your
42:54
back round? It is absolutely?
42:57
Oh my god, Donald, did you know that in Indiana? John
43:00
One? Oh my god, Donald, did you know that? Yeah?
43:02
He showed it to me. Okay, how
43:05
is the golf game, Johnny? Was?
43:07
Was it fun to swing the
43:10
axe with Donald? I
43:12
like to play by myself because I like to play
43:14
against the course and see how close I can get to par.
43:17
That's kind of the way I play golf because I don't bet and
43:20
I don't drink on the golf course. And so
43:22
a kindred spirit is Donald, who
43:25
obviously is a much better athlete than I am. He has better
43:27
feet, he has better hands, he has a better swing,
43:30
and to be able to be with him for an hour
43:32
and a half was spectacular.
43:34
Was amazing. Man. It was such a good time, and
43:36
I wish I can get back there. It's just that for
43:39
some reason. Now every Thursday
43:42
or Wednesday, I'm fucking
43:44
working. It seems like I don't know how that
43:48
great conflict but nowhere.
43:51
I love that you invite him to a nice course, because
43:53
this guy is often playing not
43:55
the nicest courses, and he loves golf so
43:58
much, so if you anytime, you can bring him to one
44:00
of those swanky places as as his
44:02
his joy. I want to
44:04
join, man, I want to join, but we are in a pandemic
44:07
right now, and my wife ain't let me spend no money.
44:10
I will say that when when you and
44:13
Sarah are talking about the conflict
44:16
between a female doctor or an Afrian
44:18
American doctor and then doctor Rhodes
44:20
watched me. Yeah,
44:25
I don't remember the stuff, and so what I
44:27
remember it smacks me. It's great that
44:29
I do remember that. I remembered that when
44:31
I did remember, Wait, who wrote this? This
44:34
was no Gabby? Gabby
44:37
wrote it. Gabby got skills? Yes
44:39
she does, yeah he on did you hear
44:41
on the show? No, we
44:44
had Gabby on the show. She didn't watch
44:46
the episode. She
44:48
missed the memo that now I got something to listen to
44:50
tomorrow morning. She missed a memo that you
44:53
supposed to watch the episode before she came
44:55
on. So she came on. She came, but she came
44:57
on the show and she was like, I love the podcast. It's
45:00
such a great podcast. But she had
45:02
never listened to whatever. Yeah, I
45:10
remember this. M the two guest
45:12
ladies who were playing Jordan's friends,
45:16
they were very nice. But here's
45:18
the conundrum. I sound like you. Here's
45:21
the conundrum. Am
45:23
Beth David's who played one of them, had
45:25
a horrible cold, like like
45:28
should have been in bed cold, and
45:31
they had to mount me in that vampire
45:34
fantasy, and I remember
45:36
thinking like this is I'm so gonna get
45:38
fight. Like obviously normally when you see someone who super
45:40
sick and they're like sorry, I'm saying you're like go away, go
45:42
away, don't come near me. I had to like make
45:45
out with this woman, and so she's like mounting
45:47
me with her I should
45:50
be in bed cold and chopping
45:52
on my neck and I remember thinking like, ops,
46:00
know, well,
46:02
this was back in the day before you could get
46:04
knocked on your ass from shit like. So she goes
46:06
on to either she goes
46:09
on to either have already done or will
46:11
do Schindler's List. I think
46:13
she had already done. Yeah, she
46:15
had done it already. Yeah. What years?
46:18
Uh is that? Daniel? Can you get that first?
46:20
Real quick? What years should she spectacular
46:23
Shindler's list? Um, Yeah, she's
46:25
got a big career. She's been in lots of things. Ninety
46:29
three. Oh yeah, so that was long time.
46:31
And who is who is the other young woman?
46:33
Who is? I have scrubs? WICKI
46:35
open, I can tell you Ulie Julie
46:38
Warner, oh white? And she
46:40
she played with Michael J. Fox in Doc
46:42
Hollywood. I think, yeah, so anyway
46:45
possible. They were they were great, and
46:47
they were great and did a fun job. But
46:49
my memory is that she had to both pros.
46:52
Yeah, yeah, she had to be a real trooper
46:55
because she just had to do it. And
46:57
I had to pray to yeah
47:00
way that. Um, I didn't get sick, all
47:02
right, Yeah, you're right, Doc Hollywood. Absolutely?
47:06
Um did you laugh when I hide
47:08
in the cabinet amongst the stuffed animals?
47:10
Like et always
47:18
funny, always funny? Um,
47:20
I like young Bob kelso doing
47:26
was worth worth? And and
47:28
then and then Todd listening to Annie of
47:30
all father, Yeah decided
47:34
he was listening to Annie. Well, I think they were trying to
47:36
sit. I don't know what were they trying to say? His
47:38
father it is hard that his father was, that
47:40
his father was hard on him so that when he came
47:42
out of it, he goes, it was a hard knock
47:45
life. Yeah, but no, but
47:47
his father was like supposed to be like
47:49
Todd. But then but Todd's not listening. Todd's
47:51
listening to the Annie soundtrack, So I don't know, I don't really
47:53
understand the fantasy. But his dad's
47:55
not like Todd. His dad's drinking beer and
47:57
all of that stuff. His
48:00
dad's like it seemed like his dad was an abusive dad.
48:02
No, his dad was talking. Wasn't his dad saying
48:04
something about women? And which would be like that's where he got
48:06
it from. But then Todd's like, Dad, I'm listening
48:09
to Annie. Yeah, I guess
48:11
I don't understand. Also, Zachie, when you carry
48:14
I love when actors have a preoccupation, in other
48:16
word, something that's happening outside of frame for
48:18
the character. And so when you bring
48:20
in you're a canary
48:23
in the coal mine here, or I'm sorry, you're you're
48:25
the cat who ate the canary. When you come
48:27
in and you you're going you know, you're
48:29
already reported Cox for sexual but
48:33
you don't tell him. And then Ted comes
48:35
in and pays it off. It's you
48:38
look like you have the secrets
48:40
to some unbelievably
48:43
crazy thing and it's great.
48:45
It's and the lens just devows that
48:47
stuff. Oh man, Yeah, I wondered. I was
48:49
like, why is he running off so fast? Why is he doing
48:52
this? And
48:54
then Ted comes up and explains it. How
48:56
about the fact that Todd is actually proud
48:59
of his sexual harassment compliments?
49:01
Yeah, yeah, says she says forty
49:04
seven or whatever the number. Yes, um,
49:07
and Judy goes the term melons
49:10
is just as bad as sweater meat.
49:15
Sweater meat as as
49:17
usual. I don't want to get in trouble
49:20
for uh not
49:23
for separating. But Judy looks
49:25
absolutely spectacular always,
49:28
not that she doesn't always, Okay, I want to get that,
49:30
but she looks absolutely She's
49:33
a knockout. She's a knockout or
49:35
Judy Yes, I love the
49:37
fact that she's put in charge of the sexual harassment
49:39
meetings and can't get anybody to show up to the to the
49:42
meetings. I love it. Well. The only I think she got
49:44
everyone that was in the box right, She got
49:46
she gets everyone in a button right, and
49:48
then she has to explain to them why
49:51
they're there. And I don't. I don't
49:53
get the Todd one. I do get the kin one. I do
49:55
get the kind one. He's from another era. But
49:58
Tom should be out on his ass, dude, I'm sorry,
50:00
Well, that dude should be out on his ass. Todd
50:03
would be so fired in twenty twenty. Oh my
50:05
god. We used to have these big meetings
50:07
and Johnny mentioned the no asshole policy meetings,
50:09
but we would also have a sexual
50:11
harassment meaning right,
50:14
and they were really hilarious,
50:17
not because of the material, which everyone you know,
50:20
was digesting, but the questions that we could ask,
50:22
many by Donald, which were very funny. Those
50:25
are the least effective seminars in
50:27
the history of seminars. Yeah,
50:29
but it did. It did well
50:32
until you have somebody ask a question that's
50:35
like, oh boy, here we go, you know
50:37
what I mean, Like it was there. There were there were
50:39
a couple of questions where it was you know, there were a couple
50:41
of questions that involved dogs, coup,
50:44
you know what I mean. It was. I can't put it.
50:46
I can't put a whole room full of comedy writers
50:48
in all of us in a room and be like, all right, you're
50:50
gonna gonna but it was good. The person who
50:52
led it, I remember, was a funny person too, and so
50:55
it was. It went
50:57
fast, all right. The guest is here? Should
50:59
we take break? Yes, stud that We'll
51:01
be right back with a fancy beautiful
51:04

Welcome to the program. Where are you calling from? I'm

52:21
six am China. This
52:24
is this is our first call from
52:26
from China. Uh, it's my first call
52:28
from China as well. Um, I'm in Shanghai right
52:31
now. We just moved here on
52:33
We left on Wednesday from the States, and
52:36
I guess today is Saturday. I'm not sure
52:38
it's Saturday here, right? Yes, that was quarantine.
52:42
Did you guys have to quarantine and all that stuff? Are you quarantine?
52:45
Right? Yeah? I'm quarantining right
52:47
now in a hotel. Um. Yeah,
52:50
it was a totally reason for your life move
52:52
to Shanghai. My
52:54
husband's career. They were coming
52:56
here for a couple of years. Do you feel
52:58
about that? Are you do you already resent
53:01
him and hate him? Or are you excited? No,
53:05
I'm actually a little worried that I'm going to embarrass him
53:07
in some way. So that's what I'm mostly
53:09
concerned about, is that I'm going to be because
53:12
I'm the streets. Well
53:14
he's at work, and I'm gonna be like arguing with
53:16
vendors and you know, just being a crazy
53:18
American in Shanghai. Oh
53:21
that sounds like a fun adventure. Did you learn the language
53:23
at all or are you gonna learn the language? No,
53:25
it was kind of it wasn't. We weren't sure if
53:27
it was going to all come together. So, you know, I've been
53:30
working and raising kids and unable
53:32
to really put in the time to study, but I did learn.
53:34
I'm sorry, Dubuchi, you're
53:37

sorry you speak English idea.
53:48
So sorry, Yeah, So
53:51
I'm gonna spend I can't work while I'm here,
53:53
so I'm going to spend, you know, however much time
53:55
trying to get fluent. So that'll be great, that'll
53:58
be fun. Well, yeah, get one of those um apps.

54:14

54:17
Emily? You have you have Daniel
54:19
here, Donald, the legendary Johnny
54:21
c anything, go ahead, Yeah, so Donald,
54:24
my question is actually for you. And yeah,
54:26
finally you know something on this podcast
54:28
for like, however, many episodes
54:31
and they don't ever ask me anything. They always
54:33
ask zac about Garden State through that and
54:35
then and then when then they start asking about
54:37
kids and family and they don't want to ask
54:40
me. They want my wife to come on the show and come
54:42
up. I hope
54:44
this is something that I can answer, and that's something that
54:46
I have to go get my wife for it. Let's go, Emily, that's better
54:48
be about the dagab Yeah. If it's about
54:50
If it's about Star Wars, I got you. If
54:54
it's about Star Wars in China, I got
54:56
you. All right, go ahead, Emily. My
54:59
son's right over there. He's got a million Star Wars questions
55:01
that I cannot answer, even though I'm a huge fan. Okay,
55:04
so, um, my question is Donald.
55:06
So I've been listening to the podcast obviously for since
55:08
you guys. You guys started and sometimes
55:11
you guys burst into song, which I love. Um,
55:14
but I've noticed that you Donald, whenever
55:16
you start singing something, you start singing
55:18
it exactly at the right pitch that
55:21
the song was written in and so and
55:23
that you yeah, and
55:26
so I was and that's what I wanted to ask
55:28
was do you have perfect pitch? Or I
55:31
do? Now? Am take something
55:33
right now? I do now? I
55:35
do? HALLA asked
55:37
me any any artists
55:39
out there who needs like a cover of your
55:41
song or you just want to do a collab with me? You
55:44
heard it from M I got perfect pitch. I got you you
55:46
need, you need, you need, you need a Nate Dog,
55:49
you need a you need something like that. I could say,
55:51
I I got you know, I got I got a little bit of something
55:53
like that. I can't, I can't. I can't ever be the late
55:55
great Nate Dog. You can't ever you
55:58
can't ever ever ever ever placed
56:00
a late great Nate Dog. But I could sing a little
56:02
something on your wrap hooks. Um Donald
56:05
is self deprecating at times, but has
56:07
the most incredible voice. And also
56:09
he can seamlessly find the harmony too.
56:12
He always find the harmony, don't
56:15
you know? And that lends that lends to that theory,
56:17
right, because most people can't do that.
56:20
They can't just come in right on the right note.
56:22
I think a lot of people, I mean, especially
56:25
if you can hear the music, yeah it's
56:27
easy. But if you can't hear the music, you
56:30
know, hey, yeah, I don't
56:32
know I don't know. I appreciate
56:35
you saying that. I'm gonna want to sing a little something for Emily
56:37
in Shanghai. Do you want to sing like something for Christmas?
56:39
Like sleigh bells? R? Absolutely?
56:45
Oh, the weather outside is frightful
56:48
with the fire is so delightful.
56:51
And since there's no place to go, let
56:53
it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow. That's
56:56
all I know. To the song man. We finally kiss good
56:58
night beautiful. Donald
57:01
and I did a rendition
57:03
of Baby It's Cold Outside years
57:05
ago. That was a huge hit,
57:08
although now you can't only say that
57:10
song anymore unless you change the lyrics. What's
57:13
in this drink? That's probably what
57:17
about bring Me your afro Comb? That
57:19
was funny though in our song it's a fucking brush.
57:22
Yeah, that's so. The song. The lyric was she
57:24
says, Hey, lend me your comb, and
57:27
in the song I said, hey, lend me your afro comb,
57:29
and he goes, it's a fucking brush. If
57:34
you've never seen it, you gotta go check it out. It was pretty
57:36
funny. Donald. That was our first like, we
57:38
just thought it would be a silly thing to do, and it went so
57:41
viral, and I remember we went to Hawaii and we
57:43
were watching the YouTube count. You
57:45
were like, oh my god, look what's happening.
57:47
It was like it was everywhere. Yeah. Um,
57:51
all right, Emily, do you have another
57:53
question? I do, and and
57:55
Donald. I'm sorry this is a parenting question, but I think
57:58
you could probably answer kick he's not
58:00
allowed on this one. Yeah, Johnny, I'm
58:03
gonna go get her now just because you didn't know, just
58:07
because you did that, I'm going to get her. No, don't go
58:09
get her, don't go get her, don't go get her. I'm gonna do
58:11
it. Man. You I have a feeling
58:14
your fucking whole thing about getting Casey is going to
58:16
fucking take a quick hit of the blunt. And we got
58:18
Emily, I'm from smoking
58:20
weed. I'm going to get safe hold on Okay,
58:23
Jesus christ A right, sorry, oh
58:26
my god. You
58:28
can commence with your question, yeah, Emily, and begin
58:30
your question. Okay. Well, actually first
58:33
I want to show you this. So in China,
58:35
milk comes in a sack. Okay,
58:39
okay, is thought
58:41
that was cool? Okay, Um, what's
58:43
your question? Um?
58:46
Yeah, So my question was, Um, I have an eight
58:48
year old and a five year old and a
58:51
pretty soon to be born year old. And
58:54
it's just a big age difference between eight and
58:56
a newborn. And I just wanted to ask
58:59
how you manage how do you foster a relationship
59:01
between your older kids and your
59:04
very young kids? And how you yeah,
59:07
yeah, she wants to know how
59:09
you foster old relationship between your young kids
59:11
and your old kids. That's Casey Donald's
59:14
wife. Hi, it broke, Yeah,
59:16
it broke. I've been I've been doing this looks like a sound Oh
59:18
my god, it broke. He broke his headphones.
59:20
You send my
59:22
voice broke it word your loud
59:25
voice. Probably voice broke my headphones.
59:27
That's so funny. Oh my god, I forgot Casey.
59:30
You're a And say, how did Johnny ce? Casey?
59:34
We're good. He looked beautiful.
59:36
Normally are our go to parenting question? And
59:38
we also have Johnny here who has a young children,
59:41
but you go first. How do you foster relationship between
59:43
an older child and a younger child?
59:45
How do you how do you have them all be copacetic?
59:48
You know what? Our situation was kind of crazy.
59:51
Um, you know, Donald has older
59:53
kids and we have our little ones. And
59:56
Donald booked a job and
59:58
on the East Coast and a
1:00:01
week before he left, the kid the older
1:00:03
kids said, we're moving in. And
1:00:06
then Donald said, so the older kids are going to
1:00:08
move in, and I'm gonna move to New York. So,
1:00:12
um, we kind of just got thrown into
1:00:14
it and and it
1:00:16
was sink or swim, and thankfully we all swam.
1:00:19
But um, you know what
1:00:21
I just did. Very this is just
1:00:24
my own thing. I grew up in a divorced family.
1:00:27
Until this day, no one
1:00:29
has ever said a negative thing about the other.
1:00:33
And so I'm a firm believer in not
1:00:36
talking negatively, whether it's you
1:00:39
know, someone's lazy or this or anything
1:00:41
in front of my kids. So yeah,
1:00:44
so that they just they they only see
1:00:46
a positiveness from
1:00:49
having a big brother and a big sister.
1:00:51
And um, because we really didn't we
1:00:54
it was rough. It was rough at first.
1:00:56
It was rough at first, and it came from a broken relationship
1:00:58
too, whereas uh, my ex
1:01:01
wife and I we weren't. We didn't get along, and
1:01:03
uh, God rest her soul, she passed
1:01:06
away, and with her passing,
1:01:08
with her passing away, it opened
1:01:11
up the relationship for myself
1:01:14
and my older kids. And uh,
1:01:18
you know, uh, this is always a difficult
1:01:20
thing for me to talk about. But yeah,
1:01:22
because we didn't we didn't have a relationship. We didn't
1:01:25
have a relationship with them at all, and not
1:01:27
we had a bit of a relationship, but it wasn't
1:01:30
you know, Casey didn't really know my daughter or
1:01:33
my youngest son before we had
1:01:35
kids. And and so you
1:01:38
know, the fact that she was able to do
1:01:41
what she did and take care
1:01:43
of my responsibilities when I was
1:01:45
out of town, you know, helped
1:01:47
out tremendously. Uh. And I feel
1:01:49
like I feel like now and I could be wrong, honey,
1:01:52
and if I'm wrong, you can totally correct me. But
1:01:54
I feel like we were a well oiled machine now
1:01:56
because of it, and we all you
1:01:59
know, right, I think I think a lot
1:02:01
that helped us was that he was out
1:02:03
of the equation. So we were
1:02:05
forced and I mean that in
1:02:07
a possitive way, like we were forced to all
1:02:10
develop our own relationship on
1:02:12
our own without him overcompensating
1:02:16
on this and overcompensating all that and
1:02:18
worrying about are you did you check
1:02:20
with them or did you hug them or did they
1:02:22
check with you? And you
1:02:24
know, so all that, you
1:02:27
know, crap was out the window.
1:02:29
It was more like, hey, I'm
1:02:32
in charge and we're all in this together.
1:02:35
Let's let's do it. But I have to say
1:02:37
where I don't are these are your kids the
1:02:40
youngest or the oldest. So
1:02:44
sorry, I wasn't think these are all home
1:02:46
hours. But yeah, my son
1:02:49
is just my husband has a ten year
1:02:51
age gap between him and his brother, and they
1:02:53
don't you know, they have a good relationship, but
1:02:55
it's not close. And I'm just worried
1:02:57
that my son is who is going to be nine, is
1:03:00
going to not have a close of a relationship
1:03:02
with his youngest sibling. Yeah. Well,
1:03:05
well I personally, video
1:03:08
games is something I can't I cannot stand.
1:03:11
It was the one I just can't stand it. I
1:03:13
think they wrought my kids brains any
1:03:16
kid, and I just am not for it. His son,
1:03:18
the oldest one, is a huge gamer,
1:03:22
and I had to We fought so much
1:03:24
about it, but it was the one thing that that
1:03:27
my seven year old and the eighteen
1:03:30
year old could connect on that that
1:03:32
you know, that's a good point. And eighteen year old
1:03:34
doesn't want to hang out with a seven year old, but when you're
1:03:37
frying your brain together, it doesn't
1:03:39
matter. Yeah,
1:03:43
find something, just that one thing whether you
1:03:45
like it or not, and just let them go
1:03:48
to town on it really and
1:03:51
yeah, I need to be more of a cool mom like that. You're
1:03:53
right, but but limit it because
1:03:55
it was hard. Yeah. Um.
1:03:59
And then the daughter just if it's
1:04:01
girls, you know, it was all about
1:04:04
dancing. So they just
1:04:06
taught each other to dance. And you know, my
1:04:09
daughter looks up to her big sister like
1:04:12
she's the queen. So it was. So
1:04:15
it sounds like your answer is fine, things that they
1:04:17
can find in common, because obviously
1:04:20
they will be able to find things that they like in common.
1:04:22
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love
1:04:25
that. Thank you, nice to see
1:04:27
you. Thanks for letting
1:04:29
me come back on Zach bullshitan
1:04:34
liar man. First
1:04:37
thing I said to Donald, He was like, babe, can you
1:04:39
come up real quick? I said, oh god? What He was
1:04:41
like, oh, there's family stuff on. I was like,
1:04:43
is Zach pissed? And
1:04:46
you were don't lie, don't lie. I love
1:04:48
it when you come on. I just think that occasionally
1:04:51
he can answer a parenting question without needing
1:04:53
to call a friend. Well, this is a glimpse
1:04:55
inside our marriage. Guys. There's
1:04:59
no occasionally where he can answer
1:05:01
a parenting question. Oh my God, you're
1:05:06
not funny at all. Get out. I would watch
1:05:08
this reality show. All right, Donald,
1:05:10
it's time for Shanghai's favorite
1:05:13
segment of the show. It's
1:05:15
time to fix
1:05:18
your life? All
1:05:22
right, Emily, you have some very
1:05:24
wise minds here. How can we help you in any
1:05:26
way fix your life? Do I need
1:05:28
to go get Casey again? Oh? Okay,
1:05:31
No, no, I think this. I think you're I think you're capable
1:05:34
here. Okay. So yeah,
1:05:37
so I'm more of an introvert, and now
1:05:39
obviously I'm somewhere where I don't have any support
1:05:42
socially or anything like that. So I'm gonna have to make an
1:05:44
effort and like make friends and stuff. I know,
1:05:47
y'all seem like extroverts to me at
1:05:49
least. So do you have any tips
1:05:51
on how to go out and make
1:05:54
this city my home? Yeah? It's
1:05:56
really sigur it out. Get an only
1:05:58
fans page. It's the god
1:06:06
you'll have. Okay, Casey, Well
1:06:08
listen, Johnny. Actually
1:06:11
I think you could be good this because
1:06:14
when you go on location, you're you constantly
1:06:16
are forced to start a new existence
1:06:19
and figure out your way around you any tidbits
1:06:22
when you get to a new place, what do
1:06:24
you do when when you settle in for a
1:06:26
location. Donald, you just recently did
1:06:28
it with Jersey City as well. Have two
1:06:30
answers. I have two answers. First, I wanted to
1:06:32
revisit Emily's first question, and
1:06:35
I have. The way I do it around here
1:06:38
with the children is if you can make them feel
1:06:40
equally valued. And the way you work
1:06:42
backwards for making a child feel equally
1:06:44
valued is if you can say out
1:06:47
loud, I love you the most because,
1:06:50
and then there's an ellipsis, and for each
1:06:52
child if you can tell them why you love
1:06:54
them the most, and it's
1:06:56
an individuated package. So I love
1:06:59
you the most because you make me
1:07:01
laugh at night, you get best snuggles on
1:07:03
the planet. And then for the five
1:07:05
year old, I love you the most for
1:07:07
an entirely different reason because you're the greatest
1:07:09
storyteller and no one else can
1:07:12
touch some of the tales that you sell. And
1:07:14
for the baby, even though he or she can't
1:07:16
understand you, I love you the most
1:07:18
because and that, and then
1:07:20
people start to feel equally valued.
1:07:23
You're not going to be able to manipulate how they
1:07:25
feel and treat each other. That's
1:07:29
when they become individuals. Your
1:07:31
husband who has a ten year gap between his brother.
1:07:34
That's not the parent. The parents had nothing to do
1:07:36
with that. They're they're individuals. They get to feel
1:07:38
that way. But you can foster an environment
1:07:40
where people feel equally valued.
1:07:43
And that's huge if you could
1:07:45
just foster that. It's huge
1:07:47
in a tangible way, not in some
1:07:50
granola way, in a tangible way, and
1:07:52
as far as pandemic
1:07:54
notwithstanding. When I get to a new location, to
1:07:57
Zach's question, I'm a foodie
1:07:59
and I find a really nice,
1:08:02
nice grocery store, whether it's a mom
1:08:04
pod joint or or a Whole Foods,
1:08:06
and um, that's that's where I
1:08:08
start. I start. I don't talk to anybody anyway,
1:08:10
but I barely
1:08:13
talk to myself, and so a
1:08:16
grocery stores is where I start. I would think
1:08:18
you're gonna I think you're gonna have a leg up
1:08:20
because of the children. So I imagine the children
1:08:23
will be in a in a blore,
1:08:25
some sort of program for maybe are
1:08:27
there going to be in some school for ex pats.
1:08:30
I'm assuming yeah, yeah, so that
1:08:32
you're right. You're right, I'm gonna have to be friends
1:08:34
with all the other moms. That's yeah, No, I think it's a good
1:08:36
starting point for you to like. The school seems
1:08:38
like it will be a good a good hub
1:08:41
for you to get a quint and you know, and
1:08:43
they can give you the lowdown like, oh this is this
1:08:45
is a great place to take the kids, or this is
1:08:47
a great restaurant for you and your husband, all
1:08:49
that stuff. Donald, go ahead. I would I would don't
1:08:51
mention those restaurants in homebook. And again please yeah,
1:08:58
man, I'm trying
1:09:00
to listen. Man, you need to go to this one
1:09:03
restaurant in Hoboken. I can't really, I
1:09:05
spoke too much weed to remember the name I
1:09:07
got name or Johnny's
1:09:10
you in China? Right you in China in
1:09:12
a spot You in Shanghai, right a
1:09:15
spot on Malcolm
1:09:18
X Boulevard in China. Um,
1:09:24
you know, I usually start at the gym.
1:09:26
I'm gonna be honest with you. That's
1:09:29
the easiest way to make
1:09:31
friends, to be if you really want to make friends,
1:09:33
go to the gym. Somebody's gonna say something eventually.
1:09:36
They can't help it. Somebody's gonna be like, how
1:09:38
much a bench? Eventually. When I first moved
1:09:40
to I didn't know that the that
1:09:43
the Gold's Gym Hollywood
1:09:46
was considered a really gay
1:09:49
jim Um and I started
1:09:51
going there and everyone was so helpful
1:09:53
to me, and I just so awful
1:09:56
or awesome to you. They were so helpful. They remember
1:09:58
coming home to my girlfriend and being like, God, everyone
1:10:01
at this gym, they're all
1:10:03
healthy. Want one guy was like teaching me how to squat.
1:10:10
So, yeah, you can make lots of friends at
1:10:12
the gym. That's
1:10:18
exactly what I'm looking for. You're welcome, Thank
1:10:21
you, welcome. Yeah, we did it. I
1:10:23
mean, I don't know if you're going to get better
1:10:25
advice. I'm gonna be honest with you. You can search
1:10:28
all of Shanghai. Yeah,
1:10:31
I think we fixed your life. And and Emily,
1:10:33
thank you for coming on. We really appreciate you coming
1:10:35
on. Yeah. Thanks, and good
1:10:37
luck, good luck in the Shanghai. Thank you.
1:10:40
Thank well. He's safe. Be happy.
1:10:43
I'm kind of nervous for her, just all of a sudden,
1:10:45
being in Shanghai with all these kids, and she's
1:10:48
got to just start for scratch that that sounds intimidating.
1:10:51
Yeah, it seems like she's on our own too. It seems
1:10:53
like her husband has his way and knows what he's going
1:10:55
to be doing, but she's kind of in
1:10:58
the dark side of it. I think it sounds
1:11:00
like an amazing adventure, especially since the
1:11:03
Chinese have done such a better job with COVID,
1:11:05
and I think it's going to be
1:11:07
incredible. She was a bit cryptic about
1:11:10
what her husband was doing. I felt like he might
1:11:12
be a CI agent. Yeah, and I
1:11:14
say absolutely, Yeah, something sketchy was
1:11:16
going on with the husband because he She was
1:11:18
like, it's a job and it was last minute
1:11:20
and yeah, now we live here.
1:11:23
Yeah, and I
1:11:25
think a spy was transferred. God, Johnny, can
1:11:27
I tell you that when when Krista has this
1:11:29
super clean moment at the end of the
1:11:33
episode when she simply says I
1:11:35
missed Ben without any historyonics,
1:11:38
no, no trying to squeeze
1:11:40
the towel out, just she just
1:11:43
states it as a fact and she almost
1:11:45
throws it away and it is fantastic.
1:11:48
Yeah, Johnny, I was going to say something about
1:11:50
that because I thought she was gonna go
1:11:53
into a whole spiel
1:11:55
about it, and I was like, and when
1:11:57
she didn't do it, I was like, oh, thank god, Oh
1:12:00
wow, thank god. You know what I
1:12:02
mean, very simple, yeah,
1:12:05
yeah, oh thank god. And so when
1:12:08
that happened. That was a very powerful moment
1:12:10
for me also, you know, uh, and
1:12:12
and and it really you
1:12:15
know, my wife was just on the show, you
1:12:17
guys know how I am. I'm very all about
1:12:20
me and everything like that, and it was clear,
1:12:22
and it was so I was so happy for doctor
1:12:25
Cox also because now he's healing,
1:12:27
you know what I mean. The minute that he realized,
1:12:30
Okay, I'm hurting, but I'm not even
1:12:32
thinking about the woman
1:12:35
in my life who was related to this this
1:12:37
man, I'm not even thinking about her. And
1:12:39
I'm and and and I'm giving her
1:12:41
a hard time too, Like you have all
1:12:44
your friends here, get them the fuck out of here.
1:12:46
I'm having a hard time with all of this, you
1:12:48
know what I mean. And then when he realizes, oh,
1:12:51
she's hurting and that's why they're still
1:12:53
here. He can now heal,
1:12:56
and now he can help her heal, you know. Yeah,
1:12:59
And Bill puts this genius button at
1:13:01
the end of it. She says,
1:13:04
we have a chemical peel tomorrow. They
1:13:07
leave, and Chris, it just goes, no, we have a
1:13:09
chemical peel tomorrow. And it's
1:13:11
the loveliest button and she just again
1:13:14
she just plays it right down the
1:13:16
little it's a fact they can't leave. Yeah,
1:13:19
yeah, yeah, the chemical peel Tomorrow. We're not going
1:13:21
to cancel our chemical peel. I
1:13:26
thought it was the best non precious button
1:13:29
ever. Um, all right, I think we did
1:13:31
it, guys. I think that episode. I think we
1:13:33
successfully recapped the episode for
