0:19

0:24

0:26
You know, the drugs
0:29

You know. I'm gonna be honest with you. I am having
0:49
a great time. Good dove.
0:52
Chloe and Yanna are awesome.
0:54
They're the powerpuff Girls. Yeah. Um,
0:57
the director Maggie, she's crushing
0:59
it blows crushing it. Like,
1:02
I'm just having a great time working with everyone.
1:05
Yeah, And we're
1:07
trying to deliver a good show, you know, we're
1:09
trying to We're really trying hard. To
1:11
give the fans something
1:15
that they're like, you know, whether you like
1:17
the idea of Powerpuff being created
1:19
or you don't, we want you. You know, we're trying
1:21
to give you something. Everybody's working hard
1:23
at trying to give you something.
1:25
So at the end of the day, you're like, it was
1:27
actually pretty good. Well, I gotta tell you
1:30
that there's quite a pedigree behind it, you know that,
1:32
Diablo, Cody and Greg BERLANDI, I mean,
1:34
these are all these are all power hitters,
1:36
So I think it's gonna be amazing. And I've
1:38
never even seen anything. Only I know about Powerpuff
1:41
Girls is that graphic of the three of them with their fists
1:43
up. That's all I know. Yeah, I know, I
1:45
know. I've started watching
1:47
the old show and that it's funny. You
1:50
know, the originals show, the original
1:52
series is funny, like laugh out loud funny. I didn't.
1:55
I didn't realize that. And it kind of has the it kind
1:57
of has the animation of like old school
1:59
hand up Barbara type. You know, it's
2:02
like, really, it's really cool. Now,
2:04
I will say this, people might
2:07
not like the way I played the professor because
2:09
I'm definitely not talking like that. I'm sorry.
2:13
Talk. It's like, hey, the Powerpuff Girls
2:16
are you know what I mean, I'm not doing
2:18
that stereotype. Dad. Oh
2:21
well, I don't think anyone's expecting you to be a sixties
2:23
stereotype. Dad. I hope not. Just
2:27
make it your own, that's right. Well,
2:29
you know, but I still have to hold some of
2:31
the you know, some of the
2:33
characteristics and quirkiness that
2:37
of course. What I mean. I think people, I
2:39
think I think everyone will be excited
2:42
to see what you do with it, and I think there's gonna be so many
2:44
eyeballs on it. And it's just I'm
2:46
just proud of you that you're involved with something so cool. So
2:49
man, how stupid bother doesn't going incredible
2:52
the same thing. I'm just so happy. I love
2:54
everybody. The kids are so cute. Um,
2:57
I just love them. They're so they have so many
2:59
questions and they're just so you
3:02
know, every day that goes by, I watched them
3:04
bonding with each other more and
3:06
um, and we're becoming this family
3:08
unit. You know. I literally have to be the dad
3:11
sometimes because you know, when all the
3:13
crew and parents and guardians and
3:15
babysitters and all those people clear away,
3:17
it's just me and Gabby as the adults, and then
3:20
like these little twins start fighting and I have to be like
3:22
guys, guys, guys, come on, come on, come on, let's focus.
3:24
Like I
3:28
literally have to be like dad and
3:30
they look up to me, you know, as like Uncle Zach
3:32
basically. But it's fun, man. I love it.
3:34
It's too good to be true. It's the same thing that you're saying,
3:37
it's great script. You know, as
3:39
actors, we sometimes are run things we don't love.
3:42
It's it's it's a good opportunity or
3:44
I'm doing it for X Y or z E reasons. This is one of
3:46
those things where I love it, like I'm having every day
3:48
I come home smiling. Yeah,
3:50
I know the feeling, man, And it's you know
3:52
I have. There's a young lady on the show. This is
3:54
her first time ever in front of the camera.
3:57
Names Jana right. She plays Buttercup.
4:00
First time ever on camera. She did
4:02
a lot of broad She did a couple of some things on Broadway.
4:04
She was in Jagged Little Pill with
4:07
when Diablo, did that with Atlantis
4:09
Morrisette, and then she got the tour. She
4:12
got the tour for Hamilton
4:14
and right when it was about to go off COVID
4:16
happened right o. Man. So she's
4:19
you know, she's like brand new, fresh,
4:21
banking new to the
4:24
television film industry. And
4:26
it's so refreshing to see because I remember
4:28
when I was like that and just like her innocence
4:30
and the question she asks and like
4:33
it's like so amazing, and
4:35
and I keep telling her, please don't ever lose
4:38
this energy. Always stay on this energy.
4:40
But you know, in time, you know, Hollywood
4:42
will get to you. Yeah,
4:45
that's another it's a very it's funny, it's very
4:47
analogous situation. I'm in too down because
4:49
a lot of these kids, you know, these some of these kids are really little.
4:51
And even even the young lady who's playing my
4:53
sixteen year old daughter is I believe
4:55
she's eighteen or nineteen just
4:58
started NYU and the all so wide
5:00
eyed in the it's but I love
5:03
like explaining things, and you know,
5:05
they have the little kids have tons of questions. What's that?
5:07
You know, whether it's crew gadgets, like what's
5:09
that for? What's that? Or they yell some
5:11
jargon on the set and the kids are like what does that mean?
5:13
And I love being like the elder states been like, well, kids
5:15
let me tell you what that means. And
5:18
so that's fun. And I thought of you Donald, because
5:21
without spoiling anything for anyway,
5:23
there's a moment where a character one
5:26
of my kids has to hit a three point
5:28
shot in front of a whole gym
5:30
of people. And I was thinking of the Scrubs
5:32
episode where you where were doing that one or you had to
5:34
hit that shot. And this this
5:36
young lady is so talented and she's
5:39
an athlete, but wasn't a great blastgot
5:41
player, and she's been training and training and training and training
5:43
and training, and there we
5:45
were in the stands and she's supposed to
5:47
like hit like this all important three
5:50
and she keeps missing it and keeps
5:52
missing it. I'm like, under pressure, I'm like biting
5:54
my fingers for like like her dad, like as
5:56
though I'm her dad. I started biting my and
5:59
and everyone, you know, because we know they
6:01
can edit it together. Even when the three doesn't
6:03
go in, we all cheer because you know, well
6:05
they'll just they'll edit it so it looked and we're
6:07
thinking, like how many times are they gonna give her to
6:10
like do this. They ideally want it to be real
6:12
without cutting to them rim you know, she
6:14
misses. I don't know, but we're all
6:16
fake cheering even when it doesn't go in. And then
6:18
in my mind, I'm thinking, like, Okay, if I was directing,
6:21
i'd probably give her three more try.
6:23
I don't know, I try to think, and
6:27
I'm just sitting there, and then she fucking hits
6:29
it, and I swear to God as though
6:31
I was her father. I leapt to my feet
6:33
and I was so elated.
6:35
And then she and in the scene, she looks
6:37
at me and she points, so I was just like I could have cried.
6:39
I was so proud of
6:44
dude. That's so awesome, man, Yeah,
6:46
it's really it's really great. It's really
6:48
awesome to to to live
6:51
through other people's learning
6:54
experiences, and like I do it with my children
6:56
all the time. But you know, my kids aren't
6:58
actors, and you know I I wouldn't necessarily
7:01
put them into game. So when I'm meet somebody
7:03
who's in the same profession as me and
7:05
I and I'm watching them literally
7:08
grow as they're working,
7:11
it's it's just so it's it's endearing,
7:13
it's it's overwhelming, Like I
7:15
feel you, like you want to cry. I love
7:18
it, man, how are you guys? Doing man, you
7:20
know, why is your camera off? We want to see
7:22
your beautiful hair. Sorry, I'm trying
7:24
to um text our guests and let
7:26
them know that we will be with them in a moment. Okay,
7:29
Well, I really like your new hairstyle, and I want
7:31
to segue from your new hairstyle into
7:34
well, so we count in Donald what we have an exciting
7:37
show today. First of all, this is a very
7:39
funny episode. I want to explain to people that why
7:41
we're jumping around a little bit, it's because
7:44
we you know, again, you have to bear
7:46
with us as the four of us figure out how
7:48
to bring you the show every week. It's it's
7:50
a little tricky with our schedules, but we're doing it and
7:52
we love doing it. We booked
7:54
Chase Serrano, who everybody loves, who's
7:56
like a Scrubs expert and a brilliant writer
7:59
for My Life and four Cameras because that's
8:01
the one he wanted to do. And as
8:03
we all know, that's a special episode where we spoof
8:06
the sitcom M Shay wasn't
8:08
available this Sunday, so we're gonna do Shay
8:11
next Sunday, right, Joel, Yes, that's
8:13
correct, And so we jumped ahead to four
8:15
eighteen My Roommates, which
8:18
is a very funny episode that we're talking about today,
8:21
Rolling, Rolling, And as
8:24
we had promised and on people have asked, we brought
8:26
on three of our stand
8:28
ins from the show and we'll explain again and remind
8:31
you what stand ins mean and are in
8:33
a moment. But I'm very excited for this episode,
8:35
and also we're going to do an update on Joelle
8:37
and her date that she met
8:39
during the live show. Thanks to all the people
8:41
who attended. And Joelle, your hair
8:44

8:46
very guys.
8:49
How long did that take? Did you do that? You didn't
8:51
do that yourself? Yeah, oh, I see
8:53
it's just the front. I thought it was the whole thing. No,
8:55
no, I haven't had I think. Oh that's very
8:57
cute. That's a good look for just twist. Thank
9:00
you and Daniel, I see the DJ turntables
9:02

9:05

9:07
that's that's the right word. I'm doing a DJ stream
9:10

9:12
a nice Daniel gonna bury the
9:14
lead? Come on, well, the timing
9:17

9:19
it on Tuesday or no. Sure, Yeah,
9:21

9:25
people how to watch you do your thing. You can
9:27
go to twitch dot tv, slash dj Underscore,
9:30
Daniel dam That's what I'm talking about. That's
9:32
that's what I'm talking about, all right, Donald
9:35
counts into America's Favorite podcast. Before
9:37
I do that, that was like a real That's what I'm
9:39
talking That was like a drunk drunk
9:42
That's what I'm talking about. Before, Like I think I
9:44
was drunk when I did that. I don't
9:46
know. Just talk about
9:51
you were definitely stone when you said this, who
9:53
tank forever ever, ever,
9:56
ever ever? I still
9:58
mean it now. It's a sober living
10:00
going buddy. Before we count. I
10:02
am on the fifteenth, I'll be two months
10:05
no alcohol. You didn't even drink
10:07
on your birthday. Hey, no, sir. I had a
10:09
couple of friends over and they were all enjoying
10:11
frozen margarita's and I watched them
10:14
enjoy them. I'm supposed to
10:16
I haven't drank in two weeks, and I'm
10:18
supposed to go out
10:20
and get wined tonight with
10:23
the head and makeup
10:25
artist on our show, and
10:28
I'm dreading it because I really
10:31
don't want to drink, but I want to hang out with the
10:33
dude. You know. That's the problem. By the way, this is
10:35
a problem for the I'm sure there's people listening
10:37
going. I would try, you know, taking an
10:39
alcohol break, but going out for being
10:41
socialist, and that is tricky,
10:44
and I recommend. What I do is I get something
10:46
that's a little bit special, like
10:48
a ginger beer, which I really happen to like, oh
10:51
um, because it takes really good to me. It's like, say,
10:53
kind of the equivalent of getting when I say I have a GTS
10:55
kambucca, although the rest of the bar probably, but
10:58
you can get a ginger beer or something
11:00
else that you find that you don't normally
11:02
get that doesn't have booze in it. But dude, I'm telling
11:05
you, once you get past the initial like, oh,
11:07
everyone's having a drink and I wish had to drink, I'm
11:09
so stoked. Like when I make it to the parking lot and
11:11
I and I actually made it through dinner and didn't have a drink,
11:13
I'm like, yes, because the only part you care
11:15
about is like the sort of socializing.
11:18
We've just we're so used to it. We've been
11:20
doing it since we were freaking teenagers most
11:22
of them. Yeah, yeah, I was doing
11:24
it when I was. I drank more in high school
11:26
than I ever did the rest of my life. But um,
11:29
you know, so we were just we're just conditioned to it,
11:31
and it is awkward. You know that. That's the only
11:33
time that I miss having a drink
11:35
is when your body we have
11:38
this like Pavlovian response like time to socialize
11:40
drink, which is weird,
11:43
and we're just we're just used to it. So but I'm
11:45
telling you, once you make if you successfully make
11:47
it past that stage and just had a
11:49
non alcoholic drink, um, you
11:52
feel super stoked right on, right
11:54
on. Yeah, So no weed, no booze.
11:57
Two weeks, I'm good. I'm
11:59
loving it, like the way my face is
12:01
set up. You know, as my therapist says,
12:03
um, nothing beats a streak, no
12:06
nothing. So it's like a streak
12:08
can be beaten. But you know what
12:10
he was saying was that if you whatever
12:12
you're trying to do, whether it's meditate every day
12:15
or do some exercise every day, or take
12:17
a booze break, it's um.
12:20
He said, there's so much power in a streak because
12:22
you don't want to lose your streak. You don't want to suck up your
12:24
streak. Right. Something I always did, I think I mentioned
12:26
this on the podcast is um is
12:29
just print out a paper calendar. You can find a free
12:31
one on the web, and then
12:33
I would just give myself a smiley face
12:35
on the day every time I was doing
12:37
something I wanted to to to do
12:40
every day, whether it was meditate or take an alcohol
12:42
break. And then even just looking at the calendar
12:44
like, I'm not gonna fuck up my streak by
12:46
putting a fucking X on the day I want
12:48
my smiley face. It's
12:51
really It's crazy though. Man, Once you freaking
12:53
decide to do this out of
12:55
the blue, everybody
12:58
in a mama want to smoke with you or every name
13:00
mama. Do you know how many
13:02
you know what my cast gifts were, like
13:05
the gifts that they gave me, like this,
13:08
let's see it. What am I gonna do with this? Dude?
13:12
What are you doing? Gift
13:14
it? That's the only way too do Listen. I have this assistant
13:17
on the movie and she brought in this beautiful
13:19
bottle of wine from the producers. Um,
13:22
I'm sure it was expensive because it was my birthday
13:24
present. And she's like, oh, just reminding you
13:26
that you got that bottle of wine from the producers
13:28
And I said, oh, thank you so much. She was where do you want to
13:30
put it? I said, in your bag. It's for you, right
13:33
And she was like, really this is like
13:35
expensive. I was like, I know I'm not drinking right now.
13:37
That's all. You have a good weekend. She was like, oh god,
13:44
that's awesome. All right. So here we go, y'all five
13:47
six, seven day stories about
13:49
so we made
13:53
nurses stories.
14:11
All right, Now we got to start off Joel. First
14:13
of all, Um, has there been
14:15
any updates? Has the has
14:17
the date? So to remind people who weren't
14:20
at the live show, we did a dating game
14:22
and all of the attendees of
14:24
the in the audience voted. We
14:27
had a live poll which
14:29
person Joel should take on a zoom date.
14:32
We we all voted on it amongst
14:34
ourselves and then of course we left it to Joel and
14:37
did you have the date yet? Yeah?
14:40
We did. We it was actually this morning right
14:42
before you answer, Before you answer, Daniel,
14:44
I think we should play the theme song for Joel's
14:47
dating segments. It's
14:50
the most fire song ever. Here we go, get
14:53
the word out, Joel,
15:01
no matter what's between your next tomorrow
15:04
and you get
15:07
them get down. Oh yeah,
15:10
Joe down. Wow.
15:16
That is I think that's what they call a bop Daniel
15:18
in DJ and DJ Lingo. I believe
15:20
you're correct on that one. Okay, I love the
15:22
lyrics. The lyrics are the best. All right, Chu, well go ahead.
15:24
How did it go? Um? It went really
15:26
well. It was fun. We were talked

16:45
knockout. Um wow,
16:47
Jewel, that's really good. I think that might

Um, all right, let's bring it. Shall we bring

18:23
Yes, yes, so excited for it.
18:26
Alex. We will explain to you who
18:28
these lovely people are again, I promise, because you might
18:30
be confused. But two
18:32
of them in like since we wrapped. I haven't
18:34
either. I'm very excited about its
18:36
spring them all in here are Deonte, Scott
18:39
and Renee
18:48
Picture bro. Oh
18:52
my god, it's so surreal.
19:01
You got it. I feel
19:03
like I could cry. Why
19:07
has Renee noted one day?
19:12
No? Come on, yesh
19:15
my god, let me look old
19:17
as but a
19:21
one day No. I'm just I'm
19:23
just it's amazing a kid. I have a four
19:25
year old, So you do, Scott? Yes,
19:29
I do old
19:39
I got three cats.
19:44
All right, let's just let's get the audience caught
19:46
up a bit. You guys, and Deante, thanks for coming
19:48
out of the helicopter to come join us on
19:51
the podcasting.
19:54
That joke is related to his giant headset.
19:56
Everyone that you can't see, um,
19:58
that's you guys. That's Joel and
20:00
Dale are our producer and
20:02
an editor engineer. Audience
20:06
guys, I'm going to describe to people because a lot of people who
20:08
listen to this don't know anything about film production, what a
20:10
stand in is. And then I want you guys to clarify
20:13
or change anything I say. But
20:15
we were very very close to these
20:18
three people because Scott, Deontay
20:20
and Renee where me, Donald and
20:23
Sarah's stand ins. What that means is when
20:25
you're making a film or a TV show, we
20:27
go and re rehearse, and then the cinematographer
20:29
and the camera crew and everybody needs to needs
20:32
people to light while we go do hair and
20:34
makeup and change our costumes in Donald's
20:37
case, play video games. Um, they
20:39
need to rehearse the camera moves, they need
20:41
to set the lighting, they need to you know, do they
20:43
need They need people that are exact height, our
20:45
skin tone and ideally have
20:47
the same hair color so they can adjust all
20:50
the lighting and when. And so
20:52
that was these guys. Scott was
20:54
my stand in, Deontay was Donald's,
20:56
and Renee was Sarah's. And we
20:59
spent so many years being
21:01
very close with these three people and
21:03
have about ten million inside jokes because
21:06
we just were. We spent the whole day with
21:08
them. Um, guys, what did I get wrong? Why
21:11
did I get right? Chime in, Well, we
21:13
basically stood on tape, That's what we did.
21:15
Yeah,
21:18
So when the you know, when the DP and
21:21
when Zach you know, you guys are
21:24
doing what you do or setting up. You know, you
21:27
could be out with another camera crew. We had we were splintered
21:29
so much into different crews um
21:31
to sort of multitask, and so you don't
21:34
have to stand there and get exhausted for an hour under
21:36
hot lights. We would stand there
21:38
and you know, just do
21:41
forget. Don't forget Scott
21:43
all the voice. Yes, don't
21:46
forget that. That's right. I'm sorry,
21:48
Scott. I already I already have minimized
21:50
what you did. Scott,
21:54
not only not I not. I'm just saying this, you're a good
21:56
actor, which really helped, because you
21:58
know, the voiceovers were such a character in
22:00
Scrubs, and we had to time out what the timing
22:02
would be, like that whole voiceover is going to be here during
22:05
the scene, so Scott I would read them
22:07
the first rehearsal, just so Scott could see like the
22:09
rough idea of how I was going to do it, and then
22:11
he would read it in the scene.
22:14
So Scott was kind of in almost
22:16
every scene we did. Yeah,
22:18
I mean I became good at mimicking
22:20
your style. I guess your time.
22:23
I always appreciated Scott, how you didn't you
22:25
know, you would act it great, but you wouldn't
22:27
like try and like like upstage
22:30
to me and do the moment like you know, a
22:32
different kind of action would be like, well I heard how Zach's
22:34
gonna do it, but I have a different take on it. That
22:38
would be the times when I would read it for Scott was
22:40
missing. You remember those times, Zach whatever, and
22:43
I would read it and you'd be like, nobody
22:48
bring it down like ten notches okay,
22:50
trying to be on the camera like Deonte,
22:53
probably out of all of the standings, was in the
22:55
show the most, right, Yes, like yeah
22:57
everyone by far. Yeah, now, but you all had lines,
23:00
Renee, do you remember what you're what you're a line? We
23:02
just saw your line. I think you're a bartender?
23:05
Yes, I will. I remember the first Well.
23:07
I was always whole camera shy. In fact, I didn't
23:09
really want to do a lot of that stuff because I was like
23:12
a stage performer and a dancer, and
23:14
so for me, it was like, oh
23:16
my gosh, I can see all the people and
23:19
I'm performing in front of the whole crew,
23:21
all these people I knew. Yeah, And
23:24
of course as soon as I come down from the
23:26
the dressing room, and be like, Oh,
23:28
you're gonna screw up, you're sous.
23:33
It was, Oh my gosh, I'm gonna screw
23:35
up. But um yeah. I remember
23:38
my first line. I think it was in Bill. Bill
23:40
Lawrence was directing. I was a bartender,
23:43
and my line was it's an open bar.
23:45
Yeah. We just saw this one. It was it was
23:47
I think it was to Kelso right Donald, Yes,
23:50
Ken, because he I mean I was so comfortable
23:52
with Ken. I loved Ken. And I remember Bill.
23:55
He often came to set and he would
23:57
kind of change a line and he
23:59
changed mine, and I remember thinking, no, I don't
24:01
know, I know what to say, don't
24:04
change it. I've been working on it's an open
24:06
bar for two Yeah.
24:08
Yeah, I know what I'm gonna say. I'm nervous anyway,
24:10
Oh my god. And he goes, add cutie,
24:13
add cutie, and I said, okay, it's
24:15
an open bar, cutie. He goes, that's
24:17
it. Put that as a show. I
24:21
had the Bill line change thing. That's
24:23
so much, so much
24:25
a part of the Scrubs culture.
24:27
Right, you're gone and changing, you
24:30
know. I remember, I remember we were always
24:32
rooting for you guys to get lines, because you
24:34
know, it goes without saying they would get
24:36
a much juicier check if they had a line,
24:39
So we were always I was always happy when
24:41
you know they would throw you guys. You know something
24:43
to say, now, Dianta, you did seem to be the
24:46
most aggressive at work in it,
24:48
because as we rewatched the series,
24:50
you're on it a lot, and you're not only
24:53
not only did you not only did you do
24:55
stand in work, but you sometimes did background
24:57
work, and you will always mark the orderly
24:59
or whatever the characters. Man,
25:05
I gotta say, you know, Bill, Bill was like super
25:08
nice and generous, and I went up
25:10
and asked him towards the end of the first season,
25:12
just hey, if something seems like it might
25:14
fit me, is is it cool if I my auditioned
25:17
for it? And he was so generous,
25:19
He's like I got him. And then maybe a couple of weeks
25:21
later I looked at the script and he's like, got that's
25:23
for you. Yeah.
25:28
Also, I also remember being terrified during
25:30
that line because it's with you and Johnny
25:32
C. And I was terrified of Johnny
25:34
C at this point. Yeah. Right
25:38
and uh, and right before we're
25:40
doing the scene, we're you know, they've already clapped
25:42
the slate and they're just about to call action
25:44
and Johnny c yells to me from
25:46
across the room, heyde you
25:48
know what you do with them? You have the ball on the one
25:50
yard line right and I yelled back,
25:53
I go score. He goes no,
25:55
no fucking fumble. And do
26:03
you remember what you do? You remember what your first line
26:05
was? Uh? Yeah it was. It was
26:07
two words. I think you called me by the wrong
26:09
name, and I was just kind of giving
26:11
j D. I think I said. I think I said, hey, Burt,
26:14
you know, because he called me that by the wrong name because my name was
26:16
Bert. I remember you met
26:19
a very critical line. When
26:21
I think it's later, we haven't gotten to it. When the janitor
26:23
finally says his name Glenn Matthews, and
26:26
then I think Deontay walks up and he's
26:28
like, hey something whatever is a different
26:30
name, and like the audience finally thought they
26:32
got it. It It was Glenn Matthews. And then Deanty walks
26:34
up. They're like, hey Timmy or whatever, what
26:38
about you, Scott? Do you remember Europe your first
26:40
line? I don't really remember the
26:42
line. I remember that our
26:45
A D. Franklin called the
26:47
scene got that, yeah, got
26:50
they got put the scene got pushed, but
26:53
he was like, oh, we're putting you
26:55
your character in a cast. So I had a full
26:57
leg cast and um
26:59
this sort of like brace that went to my groin
27:02
and that was that was going to take
27:04
hours. But Franklin is like, oh, no, your scene
27:06
is pushed. So I went, I don't
27:08
know, got coffee. I went and chilled, and
27:10
then I got back into my car and
27:12
I had like twenty voicemails and Franklin's
27:14
like, the scene moved up the sea move op. Okay, hey, we
27:16
need to put that Can I swear? Yeah,
27:19
we need to put that fucking cast on. He was
27:21
like screaming at me on the phone, get to
27:23
the hospital now, and like, frantically
27:26
get in. I don't I forgot who did it, but
27:28
they're wrapping my leg frantically in this
27:30
cast. I'm trying to figure out the scene,
27:33
like I had to wheel a wheelchair at the same time
27:35
and spin and it was a steadicam
27:37
shot, so I had to pass the camera
27:41
going facing Kelso and then spin
27:43
around and talk to him with this cast
27:45
on in a panic, half
27:47
wrapped cast, and it was like, I
27:50
think it was just like hey, Bob, like I said, hey,
27:52
Bob, or like said what's up Bob or something to
27:54
him and he made fun of me because I
27:56
had a cast on or something. But it was that sort of thing
27:58
where it was like you never knew
28:01
what was gonna Well, I'm always so excited
28:03
when I see you guys. Um. First of all,
28:05
I don't think Donald just said as you were coming on. I
28:08
don't think that i've seen
28:10
you guys. Maybe you've seen you Deonta. I
28:12
don't think i've seen Renee and Scott since we wrapped
28:15
No
28:18
and yeah, we should say Renee and Scott
28:21
both left early. Renee, what season did you leave?
28:24
I can't remember. I know it's been almost fifteen
28:26
years because I left
28:28
because I got married, moved to Texas and
28:32
so, and it's this is about fifteen years
28:35
now that I've been married. So it
28:38
was fifteen years ago and I don't know. That must
28:40
have been season I'm guessing
28:42
seven. Yeah. And
28:45
then and then Shelina came on and we called her new
28:47
Renee. No
28:51
no, no, I can't replace Renee.
28:53
No no, no, no
28:55
one, no one could be replace you. But we wanted to make her
28:57
feel guilty that she like we. I think we were like
28:59
trying to convince her she took a job away from our friend
29:01
Renee, So like, listen, we're just gonna
29:03
call you new. Meanwhile,
29:06
you'd left because you got married and moved away.
29:09
Um, and then Scott, what season did you leave? I
29:11
think it was around the same time. Um,
29:13
I didn't. I wasn't involved with any of the newer
29:16
characters like to you know when it when
29:18
you guys started the new That
29:20
wasn't until nine? Was that nine? Okay?
29:22
Yeah, I'm sorry, Yeah, it was a while ago. Um.
29:25
Yeah, I wasn't involved with that, so probably like seven
29:27
or eight as well. But you didn't go to the Bahamas
29:29
either. I did go to the Bahamas. You did go
29:31
to Yeah, thanks for remembering all the fun times behind.
29:34
I was on Chunk Beach, Yeah, chungk Beach that season
29:38
eight. That was season eighth. Then you went all
29:40
the way to the Okay, so maybe, oh you know what
29:42
I did? I left and then I came back left
29:45
one season trying to get out and we pulled you
29:47
back there. I mean, it
29:49
was the best job ever. I couldn't, you know,
29:52
but I you know, I never really wanted to be an actor,
29:54
like im like I'm a documentary filmmaker
29:56
now, like I want to be behind the camera. So um,
30:00
I was maybe good at mimicking your voice over,
30:02
but I just sort of like you for
30:04
me. From my perspective is you guys were
30:06
ideal because we just all had
30:09
we had to spend so much time together, and I just have
30:11
so many great memories of cracking up with you three
30:13
when I look back on and I look back on you
30:15
know, we the three of us, sorry,
30:18
the three of us who were the leads of the show,
30:20
and the three of you guys, we were just together
30:23
all the time, and we
30:25
just I look back on those times and just
30:28
my eyes well from laughter of just thinking
30:30
about how many fucking times we
30:32
would just have so many inside jokes
30:35
and be laughing. And it was great because it kept
30:37
a vibe of like we had to be like trying to
30:39
be funny on camera for sixteen hours
30:41
a day, and having you guys be there
30:44
and just giggling with you guys was
30:46
so so awesome. Well, I often
30:48
tell people, you know, we we spent so
30:50
much time together. There was nowhere else to go. We
30:52
were in this hospital and
30:54
we all got to there. I mean there was no
30:56
iPhone either, and so people were on their phones
30:59
all the time. It was like we were all talking and
31:01
and and we got to know each other like a
31:03
family. And I
31:05
don't even think I realized at
31:08
the moment how special that was until
31:10
I got out there. I mean, here we are, we're twenty years
31:12
older, you know, and then we get really
31:14
I'm just saying this, right, you do not you
31:16
know, like a day older? What is your
31:18
secret? She's going, I
31:21
don't know.
31:22
I mean,
31:30
I'm in my forties, so I I you know, look
31:32
you thank you. But
31:35
no, it was I mean, we just we It
31:37
was like the whole crew, the cast. Everybody
31:40
got along so well. We were all together
31:43
every day and and we just
31:45
and I said, I said to somebody later
31:48
in another job that I had, I said, I we
31:50
went to work every day, we had
31:52
fun, we laughed, we got things
31:54
done, and we got paid for it.
31:57
And it's like it didn't feel
31:59
like a job. It was the dream job. You
32:02
knew you're gonna have a good day every day, You're gonna
32:04
laugh like every day. Yeah you knew, Yes,
32:06
I agreed, you knew, no matter what, you
32:09
were going to have a couple of belly laughs that
32:11
day. And everybody was so
32:14
so nice. I got along with everybody,
32:16
and I can't name one person that
32:19
you know there. There was no diva stuff,
32:21
Bill Lawrence that you know, he would
32:24
not accept jerks. You
32:26
know it was his no, no, a whole policy.
32:29
Right, you guys can if you want
32:31
to start, you can see. Really, I'm
32:33
not comfortable with you guys censoring yourself.
32:42
She's like, do you guys know that the Texas
32:45
rule about cursing? I love
32:47
Texas, but yeah
32:50
I can. I canuck curse
32:58
m D. We still
33:00
played golf together. Yeah, I see.
33:02
I've seen you a couple of times, Zach, not nearly enough,
33:05
but you know, I see Donald. We play golf. Good
33:08
time out there. Um, now, has
33:10
Donald's game gotten much better? Deontay,
33:12
because that's what we hear, We hear, Oh yeah,
33:14
yeah, no, no, his game has got a lot better.
33:16
And you know what, it got a lot better quick. I don't know what
33:18
he was doing. I think he was taking lessons, like twenty four hours
33:20
a day a couple of years. We got a
33:22
gryme, You got a grind. He's got the
33:24
kids into it too. He's got the kids at the driving
33:27
range. Dude, I'll go play golf. With
33:29
Deontay. We went and played like somewhere
33:31
out in the middle of nowhere, and we ran into his brother
33:34
and his nephew. Yeah we can family
33:38
into sports. Always knew knows
33:41
everybody, Yes, every
33:44
any they were background if they were you
33:46
know, we had our normal circle of of a
33:48
background of folks. And then you
33:50
know, lots of other random people would would
33:52
rotate in and Deontay always
33:55
knew them. He'd be like, hey, like, you're
33:57
like the mayor. He was like, farms
34:00

34:14
hope I got that right. Kill me. They
34:18
lived together, ye, and
34:20
Deanta is not any together. It's not
34:22

34:24
someone from scraps. By
34:27
the way, do you know this guy's this? Umanta?
34:30
You know this. You'll be able to articulate this better
34:32
than I can. Um So. The two standings

35:06
and then they fell in love and got married in Pasadena
35:08
the Bridge. Yes. Yes, oh wow.
35:11
We don't like to tell the end of the story that they got divorced
35:13
because it's not a semantics
35:16
all right, we need to go to break. We're to go to break
35:18
and when we come back, were you guys, you're gonna join us and looking
35:20
at this very funny episode, We'll be right
35:22
back. Edward
35:29
bad So,
35:32
guys, I don't know if you even listened to the podcast. Have
35:34
you guys heard this podcast before? Yes?
35:37
Yeah, yes, that was a very
35:40
tepid response. Donald. Ye. Yes,
35:43
I was just driving back from Oregon a couple
35:46
days ago and I listened to A Bunch in
35:48
a Row. So, guys, don't be shy. We're
35:50
gonna talk about the episode. Please chime in anything
35:52
you thought was funny, any memory
35:54
you have of it, anything. It could be totally
35:56
random. Um. If you listen to the show,
35:58
which it sounds like you don't um you
36:01
know that it's I
36:03
will say, Donald, I think i've heard
36:06
it more. I heard the episode with your mother, and
36:08
I've heard it more than her. I'm probably in
36:10
the upper maybe five to ten episodes,
36:12
to be honest, I've listen. Oh, you've listened to it
36:14
more than my mom has. Yeah, that's that's a very low
36:16
bar. And
36:19
he was, you know what, I think my
36:21
mom listened to before you go any farther. I think my mom
36:23
listened to the episode she was on and
36:26
then the first episode. That's well,
36:28
first of all, I think Scott listened. I
36:31
think just outed himself because he said I listened
36:33
to the one with your with your mom, which means
36:35
he knew he was coming on here and frantically
36:37
listened to the last episode
36:41
you got me okay,
36:44
by the way, Donald, did your mom? Did your mom
36:46
like the playback? Did she say she had a good time on
36:48
the show. She hasn't spoken to me
36:50
about it. Oh, maybe that's not good. I
36:54
don't know how about it.
36:56
I'm sure I'm sure she you know, she
36:58
was like she said she had a right time. I know that, all
37:01
right? Good, Well, we had a good time. I'm talking to
37:03
her. She always makes me smile. So the episode
37:05
starts with I'm making out with Kylie,
37:08
right, j D got jungle fever?
37:11
Got jungle fever? You
37:14
got jungle fever? Now.
37:17
Christy Faris, who plays Kylie, is
37:19
very talented and beautiful, and she Kylie
37:22
the character is taking it very slow,
37:24
very very slovery, very very slow,
37:26
very slow. There is no Have you ever been in a relationship
37:29
like out of high school that went
37:31
slow like that? No? Never?
37:34
Rightly,
37:43
I think I'm all for I'm
37:45
all for taking it slow, but I mean, the implication
37:47
in the episode is that it's been like weeks and we're
37:50
just kissing. We're not even like rolling
37:52
around groping, We're just kissing. J
37:55
D is really into her, if he's he's taking
37:57
it that slow, Yeah, you kind I
38:00
gotta be into somebody if you will a new gold that's low.
38:02
Well he is, But it's funny. I let my first laugh
38:04
out loud moments when you cut to me and
38:06
I'm while I'm kissing her, I'm massaging, massaging
38:09
my jaw because
38:12
I'm so sore from from kissing her.
38:14
And that's all we're doing. And I love I love
38:16
the plan that uh, he formulates
38:19
to get to stay
38:21
over. The first thing is, oh, I'm
38:23
tired. Yeah, I
38:26
think it's it's so cold outside.
38:29
It's like it's like it's like the baby It's cold
38:31
outside song. I'm like, who
38:34
so freezing? It's cold? Yeah. I
38:36
remember, I remember those voice those voiceovers,
38:39
like when he JD's like sort of searching
38:41
his thoughts, like what can I do? I
38:44
just I always remember, like it just comes back
38:46
to me, like your voice in the lines,
38:48
like so many sides were like
38:51
very voice over heavy. So yeah,
38:53
yeah, will put you to work in this one. Now you
38:55
are also imagining reading the teddy
38:57
Beard. Now, Donald, you are the voice of the time of the boy
39:00
some the teddy Bear. Yes, I love that. It was a brown bear
39:02
on her bed? Yeah?
39:03
Did which
39:07
wa? Donald? Did that with the iget decided
39:10
after the fact? Or did Bill the
39:12
teddy Bear? I'm sure it got decided after
39:14
the fact. And they were like, we need somebody to do with the teddy
39:16
Bear. Danny Rose, who was doing
39:19
uh I was doing post
39:21
at the time, was like, we need a teddy bear. You
39:24
want to do it? But this was a time when this
39:26
was a time when we used to all like you and
39:28
I used to love doing like the Obscure.
39:31
Uh you know, hard to place voice
39:34
over. It's like, yes, watching Jerry Springer
39:36
or television or something like that. We loved
39:39
to do that. So I thought it was a genius choice
39:41
that the brown bear on the bed
39:43
is played by you and he was the
39:48
bear does not want me infringing on
39:51
his woman. No, that's
39:53
scary. Yeah, he literally says, he
39:56
goes hit the bricks, bitch, you got no game.
40:00
It's like, yeah,
40:02
he's no. Yeah. I don't know if
40:04
they allowed me to do that, Vio. Maybe they pulled
40:06
Deonta in to do that one game.
40:12
That's all I listened, Man, I
40:14
understand because that bear has
40:17
was cuddling with that character, yes,
40:20
every night, especially if she's not
40:22
doing it with j D or
40:24
anybody else, she's definitely hugging
40:27
on that bear or some something. So I
40:29
gotta tell you now, listen, I'm very proud of I think
40:31
that this is one of my proudest improbms in the whole
40:33
series. Donald, you know what it is, Sorry
40:36
about the Tusie guys that
40:42
I still use that
40:48
sorry about I
40:51
don't remember. I remember that that line
40:53
was non scripted I do remember that the joke was
40:56
I think I don't know what I was revealing. Was it always
40:59
revealing me pere poohing or something? Were
41:01
always revealed to be pooing? Okay,
41:03
but I don't know what my line was, but I but
41:05
I added, I'm sorry about the twoosy guys,
41:07
and I just that's one of my proudest improbs
41:10
in nine years of being on the show. I
41:14
mean, can you imagine you're culling your fucking
41:16
partner in the tub, then your roommated shooting
41:19
in the same room
41:20
were Donald's. Donald's
41:22
reaction was just priceless. Though it must
41:24
have been like one take, you guys were like about
41:26
to break it so funny. Donald
41:29
looked like he was on the Yeah, he was like, just
41:32
like that's
41:36
our voice that we were holding it. Do
41:40
you remember we were guys? Would we do that just territive to
41:43
fuck up all her takes? Yes? Oh my
41:45
god. When she starts laughing, it was over, Like,
41:47
oh yeah, if you got her, yes, if
41:49
you got her going, it was over. And then Randall's
41:51
like, yeah, who would
41:54
come in, like a line producer would come in. The
41:56
line producer was in charge of the budget, would come into
41:58
me, like give us the evil eye because we
42:00
were over here like in the overtime and
42:02
we but no one could hear us because Donald
42:05
and I would just do it so soft that only Sarah
42:07
could hear, and we go. Sarah
42:12
would start cracking up and she'd be like,
42:14
shut up, and everybody
42:16
wants to try to work, Sarah.
42:19
Everybody is tired, they want to go be with their
42:21
families. Stop it. And we'd be like, what
42:32
was up with the hat?
42:34
I joke about that. I don't
42:36
know was it a stylish maybe maybe back
42:38
in um let's see when this uh
42:40
in the I don't have the gate in front of me,
42:43
but maybe that was a style
42:45
At the moment, it was like, what do you call that a Dutch boy?
42:47
I don't know what it was, renee, you know style that
42:50
weird hat she's wearing Dutch boy the
42:53
episode? No, no,
42:55
actually no, I know what I noticed about the episode.
42:58
Actually for me, is it off times
43:00
when when Sarah because this
43:03
episode did not have a lot of her in it,
43:05
and whenever she'd have a day off, I would too.
43:08
So I remember watching the episode and being like Ed McMahon
43:10
was on scrub something I
43:13
didn't know that I know that was you
43:15
know who wasn't on this episode at all? It
43:18
was KenKen, the
43:20
no conco in this episode at all.
43:23
That's interesting, that's true, and
43:25
we should mention another member of our
43:28
posse is not with us today,
43:30
but we should have her on sometimes. Katia,
43:32
who was who was Judy's standing
43:34
and she was in our our our posse as
43:36
well, and we had tons of good times with her, So
43:39
we want to we gotta have Katia come We gotta have Katia
43:42
come on too. I know this episode had a lot
43:44
of turkey. Turkey in Karla together, so that
43:46
meant that, you know, Katia
43:48
were together a lot. So wait, did we get the
43:50
bathtub scene? Were you guys? Did you guys have
43:52
to get into water? Also? We got
43:55
in the bathtub of pre water. I'm
43:57
a sicker. That's gross. If I know that, you
44:00
know that they wouldn't have them get in the same water as
44:03
well. Nowadays they wouldn't go the times
44:05
they wouldn't, but back then, the shit, oh,
44:07
I want to talk about it. So you know, ideally
44:09
for camera and lighting purposes, your standing
44:12
is your exact height now, Deontat,
44:18
it's very frustrating if the camera operators
44:20
sets up a shot on someone five five
44:22
and then a six foot tall person walks
44:24
in. All right,
44:28
Deontay tell everyone because Dean Donald
44:31
brought in Deonta because they were buddies. Well,
44:33
no, we worked together before. I've known Deontay
44:35
since Clueless. So here's here's here's
44:37
the skin I want them to tell. I want Deontay to tell
44:39
about his shoes. Okay, but we can get to
44:41
the shoes. But Deontay. I met Deontay
44:44
on Clueless. He would do background on Clueless,
44:46
right, and then he went over to Sabrina the teenage
44:48
Witch, right, And when I did guest spot,
44:50
when I guess spotted on Sabrina,
44:52
he was there and he was the standing
44:55
for my character. And I was like, dude, do you want
44:57
to do this like all the time, Like I've known
44:59
you since Clueless. We've got a great Brett
45:01
parte. Let's freaking let's let's
45:03
let's make this happen. And so when Scrubs
45:05
started, there was another guy in who
45:08
they hired somebody else and
45:10
um, he had to leave,
45:13
and I was like, I got the perfect guy.
45:15
It's Deonte. And Deonta came
45:17
in and Deontay, yes, it's five
45:19
eight and I about
45:23
I'm five eleven slash six feet, like
45:25
I'm in between. You can you can be a typical actor
45:27
and round that up to six feet. I'm six six
45:29
feet. And so Deontay comes
45:31
in and they're like, yo, what are we gonna
45:33
do about this? But luckily we had this dude, JK
45:36
who was also a standing on the show. Right he
45:38
was he was Neil's standing. No, he
45:40
was, he was Johnny standing and Neils
45:44
as well. And so to get so I'll
45:47
let Deontay take it from there. Well,
45:50
basically to get up to Donald's, I
45:52
basically wore these platform shoes
45:54
that had three or four inches of platforms
45:57
on them. They were platform sneakers, platform
46:00
sneakers, but you would have to run,
46:05
you have to play basketball.
46:08
Oh my god, you know I have
46:10
so many questions. Doante Is it true that
46:12
you, for your own job security, went
46:14
out and had them made yourself? I
46:17
did. I went out and had those maids. Yeah,
46:19
exactly. You didn't expense it, didn't
46:22
paid for them, they ask Oh they did. Okay,
46:25
Oh yeah, I thought you were worried that they were gonna
46:27
can you even though you were Donald's friend, because it made
46:29
no sense to have was standing nothing so nice. Oh
46:31
no, I wasn't worried, but you know, I had to go to it an
46:34
interview to be Donald's
46:36
stand in, and they brought in like four other guys,
46:38
and you know, you're standing outside. You guys are already
46:41
working or standing outside, and people
46:43
come out and they just look at you and not say anything
46:45
like eighty comes out
46:48
so awkward. They just look at you know what's is and it's
46:50
me standing between all
46:53
six. They're
46:57
looking it look like they're thinking about it, like you're
46:59
gonna and then should
47:02
we go with the guy the one guy? How about we
47:04
go with the one guy who's nowhere near Donald's. Hey,
47:08
well I had I had the opposite thing happened.
47:10
I actually knew Franklin and I
47:12
go from my I had to you know. He was like, Hey,
47:14
there's this this show, you
47:16
want to come work on it? And I
47:19
He sent all these girls down
47:21
from Central Casting that looked nothing like
47:23
Sarah. So I walked into the room. I'm the only
47:25
blonde, young lady
47:29
in there. There's all these older women who
47:31
are like Brunette, and I'm thinking I'm in the wrong place.
47:33
Well, it turned out that Franklin kind
47:36
of stacked the deck in my had
47:39
to pick me. That's nice of him. Yeah,
47:43
but I don't know why. I don't know. They
47:45
must have whispered in the dpf ear.
47:47
Oh that's Donald's friend, I mean yeah,
47:49
yeah. So yeah, after they
47:52
did the whispering and they send everyone home,
47:54
they said they're going with me and they let the other guys
47:56
go. The other guys must have been like, what the fuck,
48:01
that's Hollywood. Yeah. Yeah, And I
48:03
walked in the hospital with with John Inwood
48:05
Record photography and he whispers
48:08
over to me, good thing, you know, Donald, there's
48:10
really good matches over Yeah.
48:14
To be yeah, to be fair, they didn't really
48:16
love me either, especially because Zach
48:19
your hair was so velumin there's
48:21
so much volume to it, spiked up so
48:24
high. Yeah, and they were they were like, you're
48:26
a little too pale and your
48:28
hair is like, I mean, I couldn't.
48:30
I didn't have that volume in my hair. I'm
48:32
sorry. It's just not washing it Scott, if you really want
48:34
to achieve it now, it's not washing. But
48:37
I do have I dug up a couple of pictures of
48:39
me in the Zach Wig which I had, Oh my
48:42
god, goes at home? Can wait? Why
48:44
why did you? Did you double me or something
48:46
else? I did? I doubled quite a bit, and
48:48
like I did, I mean to be fair. I don't
48:50
know if they would do this now, but I did a couple of stunts
48:53
like with noon, like not
48:55
real hardcore stunts, but I rode the moped
48:57
and like went like they'd be like getting the JD
48:59
win again. They called that, They
49:02
called that. What did they call it? It's like a
49:05
hazard pass. Yeah, but you weren't
49:07
doing it. Don't don't mislead people that we were
49:09
putting you in danger. I was always engaging.
49:11
You know, you wrote a scooter. Okay,
49:14
you're a grown man. You can handle it now.
49:16
Scott came. I asked Scott because I
49:19
loved him to come and do Garden State.
49:21
And I didn't think that you would
49:23
say yes, because I was like, oh my god, I'm gonna have to spend so much
49:25
time with this standing my first feature.
49:28
And it was all the way in New Jersey and I forgot
49:31
how where did you stay? But you came and it was awesome.
49:33
Where did you stay? I stayed with a
49:35
friend of mine in like Hoboken, So
49:38
I was getting It was such a hard shoot
49:40
because of that, because I had to get on the train at like four am
49:43
every day. That just getting and then I think we got
49:45
we took like a bus at Midtown, but
49:48
it took me like an hour and a half to get to
49:50
the bus. And then we drove into like Jersey
49:53
and I was like, god, you you were
49:55
taking the train into Manhattan to get a bus
49:57
to go back to h I
50:00
never knew that because I had to. Yeah, I had.
50:03
I'm so sorry. I would have set up a
50:05
cot for you in my hotel room, but no.
50:07
It was amazing because you know, you were very loyal
50:09
and that's part of like the whole set, you
50:11
know. I appreciate that, and um, you know,
50:14
every the experience was great because, like you
50:16
know, I got to meet Natalie Portman and
50:18
she learned my name. I think I was
50:21
just remembering this earlier. I think you
50:23
taught her the Rabbidu song on
50:25
that Yeah, and
50:31
Natalie port we sang that when we when whenever
50:33
we couldn't find Scott, which wasn't that we
50:36
exaggerated that we could never find him. He that's
50:38
he was always right there. But we made up a song
50:40
where Rabbidu rabid Where is Rabbidu
50:42
because that's his last name. So are you saying that Natalie
50:44
Portman serenaded you with the rabbidue song she
50:47
did at one point. I think that's a good
50:49
memory and it seems yeah, it seems like. And
50:51
she also saw me in my underwear because I was in that pool
50:54
for you remember the fool shot. Yeah, I
50:56
was like super embarrassed that I was a
50:58
little shriveled that point getting into
51:01
pool. So Natalie
51:04
Partman is seeing me in my underwear, and I'm like,
51:06
you know, anyway, So
51:09
you're saying that you wish that Natalie
51:11
hadn't seen you in a shriveled situation.
51:15
Okay, yes exactly. And then but
51:17
then you know, it was the sacrifice for the
51:19
shot you were directing. I
51:21
had to get it was cold, it was it was
51:23
I know, we tried so hard to get that pool warm
51:26
and uh and we had to because I knew we were gonna
51:28
have to spend the whole night in it. And yeah,
51:30
it never was warm enough. Everyone was a trooper.
51:32
But I, by the way, remind me when we get
51:35
off to send you some cool pictures
51:37
because I found I was looking through old photos
51:39
and I found pictures of you in
51:41
the in the the boat that we're in at the very end,
51:43
I found pictures of you hanging out, and uh,
51:45
you'll I think you'll be glad to have them. Oh really,
51:48
Yeah, that's great. All right, but let's get back to the television
51:50
show Scrubs. So let's look. Elliott
51:52
lived with the Babcox who were
51:55
very old and thought she was a ghost. That
51:58
ship had me roland. Yeah.
52:02
I laughed so hard at that for some reason,
52:04
the fact that these old people let
52:06
Elliott live with her and thought
52:09
she was a ghost. But first of all, you're skip you're
52:11
skipping me pulling out the cable bars. Because
52:13
I was. I was. I was
52:15
so pissed that you guys were evicting me. That
52:18
was funny. That was This was actually
52:20
a very funny episode because of that. Uh,
52:23
my wife and I we Zach
52:26
is our third wheel, or at one point was our
52:28
third wheel, and we did everything
52:30
together. I was this guy
52:32
just short of saying sorry about
52:34
the Tusie guy, just short of saying sorry
52:36
about the Tusie everything
52:39
together. And so watching
52:41
this, I was like, you know, and then at the end
52:43
of the show, you know that the Turk
52:45
and caller can they think they're in trouble
52:47
and everything. But I never I
52:49
never questioned my wife and I's
52:52
relationship based on you
52:54
being a part of it. But I just remember everywhere
52:57
we went and everything we did, Zach
52:59
was always with us. And so watching
53:02
this, it's like, and I remember when Zach wasn't
53:04
around and we were like, well, what the fuck are we
53:06
gonna do now? Right, just like in
53:08
the show. Just like in the show,
53:11
They're like, they were so happy to get rid
53:13
of me because they just wanted to fuck, that's all.
53:16
They just wanted to fuck without fuck in the kitchen.
53:18
They wanted to fuck the kitchen. They did it once and then they were
53:20
like, we missed t D. Right. Basically,
53:25
the plot of this episode is turk
53:28
It and Carl I want to fuck in the kitchen. They
53:30
kicked JD out. They fucking the kitchen.
53:32
They missed g D. I
53:39
get it. You may and Dunk
53:41
kids live with me right now, you know what I mean? And
53:43
and and I love it when
53:46
my daughter goes to her boyfriend's house and
53:49
freaking my son he's in school
53:51
right now. I love when they're gone and
53:53
it's just me and my wife in the house because
53:56
we get to do shit that we don't normally get
53:58
to do, and it's such a great feeling
54:00
to have that moment. But then, yeah,
54:03
we could in the kitchen. I always remember that.
54:06
Remember that monologue and Ben Harry met Sally Donald one
54:08
of your favorite movies, when gosh, when she's
54:10
talking about having sex on the on the tile
54:12
floor, she goes fucking the kitchen.
54:14
She said, we'd never had sex in the kitchen, and
54:16
he's like, you never had sex in the kitchen. She's like,
54:18
oh no, you'd hate it. The floor was made out
54:20
of tile, tile so cold.
54:27
Yeah, no doubt. We should
54:29
mention that our guest star is Michael Boatman,
54:31
who was very funny and one of the another
54:34
one of the Spin City casts, all the stars
54:36
who came to visit us. Yeah,
54:39
he did a great job on this also, Yeah, he really
54:41
did. I love how he enters by chopper. But they
54:43
were clearly too cheap to pay for the chopper,
54:46
so there's no shot of the chopper. It's
54:48
just like a wind machine and a ladder drop drops
54:51
out of nowhere. Like, guys, come on, you could have
54:53
bought a stock shot of a chopper like, You're
54:56
like, no, kid, we're broke.
54:58
We spent all the money. Yeah,
55:00
um, what about? What what about when I randomly
55:03
say I banged your first girlfriend Chantell
55:05
because I know you go I banged your first girlfriend.
55:08
I go Shantell. Yeah, that's
55:10
so funny because I'm trying to
55:12
fight you. I'm like, I'm bang your first
55:14
girlfriend. You go Shantell, shan tell.
55:18
But then we never talk you about it again. We just move
55:20
on. That's it. That's a rat's funny.
55:22
So this is the first time you see tower finger man,
55:25
I laughed every time. When your breaking
55:27
foot is in Sarah's face, I
55:34
laughed down loud because he misses
55:36
JD. And Sarah's like the surrogate who's
55:39
over to be like I can be fun too. And
55:41
then you see Total's footage he's
55:44
trying to relive the experience with
55:47
and she goes, I told you, Turko, I don't want to play tote
55:49
finger and then immediately turks baby.
55:51
I thought that we tell Elliott to leave. Man. What
55:57
about the little says that it's always toe
56:01
so always what
56:05
about? Um? I laughed out loud when I
56:07
went, um, I'm riding
56:10
the scooter with rowdy on the back and Rowdy
56:12
has a helmet on. Yes, yeah,
56:15
I will I will say I remember
56:17
that episode for the because
56:19
you know, like we were explaining the role
56:21
of a stand in so the DP. When
56:24
John was like setting these shots, he
56:26
would be like, uh, rabbity, it's not
56:29
working to you have rowdy and he would be like,
56:31
props bringing rowdy. So I'd have to
56:33
stand in holding Rowdy
56:35
for thirty forty five minutes under
56:37
hot lights. And
56:39
I don't know if you notice that lights. Yeah,
56:41
I don't know. He had this aroma. I
56:43
don't know if are you, sir covering
56:48
Yeah, I don't know if it was the prop department covering.
56:51
Maybe he probably smells like because
56:53
they were covering him. But
56:57
he was a dead animal, you know he
56:59
was. But it didn't you
57:01
know, it was like an homage to him.
57:04
I get it. It wasn't. It wasn't gross
57:06
in the moment, you know, it was. It was like an homage to
57:09
It's never it's never discussed why JD
57:11
was able in the divorce, was able to get rowdy
57:13
Donald. I guess. I guess I must have been
57:16
the one who paid for him or something. You've
57:18
probably snatched Rowdy too. There's no way Carlo
57:20
was gonna let Rowdy stay in the apartment. Also,
57:22
I do think it's funny the only Oh, that's probably why
57:24
Carlo. I do think it's funny
57:26
that the only thing I took was the cable box
57:28
and rally. Yeah.
57:32
I love that you go to all of these different places
57:34
too to stay, and right,
57:37
the one place that you decide on for
57:39
one night is staying with the Todd.
57:42
Oh that's the that's
57:45
the funniest part of the episode.
57:47
I mean, he says.
57:49
He says, the Todd is not accustomed to receiving
57:51
gentleman. Yeah,
57:57
true, Oh my god. And then
57:59
the pres of all the people on the swimming team
58:01
and he's like, which one does you
58:07
because because there's the biggest,
58:10
the big, the big of all
58:12
the swimmers, and I go, oh, which funnies
58:14
and total dead band. He goes, oh,
58:17
I don't swim.
58:20
That was oh my
58:23
god. And then he shows all his um,
58:25
his his banana havocks and it's
58:27
a lit closet like lights in it
58:30
and they're all lined up and he goes, what are you about
58:32
a medium? And I go like extra
58:34
medium and
58:37
he goes, he goes this will do and it's
58:39
gonna look great. What does he say, it's gonna look good?
58:43
Yes, that's the funniest
58:45
fucking shit man. Donald rewatching
58:48
the show, you guys, and we have a whole new respect
58:50
for Rob. Like Rob, Rob steals
58:52
every episode, every episode
58:54
Rob is in. His line is the funniest
58:57
line of the episode every time. And
58:59
I remember when we were shooting this, I remember being like, it
59:01
goes, Rob running line again, look
59:03
at a run in line. But dude, he
59:05
delivers every fucking
59:08
time. We were always making fun of him, like,
59:10
oh, come on, Rob, you run in line again? And
59:12
now we were we watching it. Good thing he ran
59:14
line. He's fucking hilarious. He's fucking hilarious.
59:17
Dude. We have a caller, Yes, so guys,
59:19
I know you don't listen to the show, or you pretend to, but
59:22
we take a caller, Renee, Renee, I
59:24
believe you at least um,
59:26
So we take a caller, as you
59:28
know, and uh, and we give him two questions.
59:30
I don't know why Daniel and Joelle have decided not
59:33
to attend this episode. Why do you guys hate
59:35
our friends? You don't you don't want to meet the game,
59:40
do you Ultimate hangout Fest. Did you guys,
59:42
did you guys break off into a separate rooms
59:48
on each other we didn't want to know? Well, I want you
59:50
guys to meet our friends and get to know and
59:52
love them. We're gonna
59:54
take a break and when we come back, we're gonna have a guest, and
59:56
then we're gonna talk to the guests. That's gonna be delicious.
59:58
Here we go right back and
1:00:06
we're back. We are back, all
1:00:08
right, bringing the guests. Don't be shy, Renee,
1:00:10
Scott and Deonta. You're gonna share your knowledge
1:00:12
of scrubs. And we're also going to do
1:00:14
a segment called Fix Your Life where we give
1:00:16
them really great psychological
1:00:19
help. Here,
1:00:22
ladies and gentlemen, give it up for ear.
1:00:32
Welcome, I and you got you have. I think you
1:00:34
This is the biggest assemblage of people we've ever had
1:00:36
on the show at one time, right, Joel and
1:00:39
um wow, I don't know if you've been briefed, Ian, but
1:00:41
these three lovely people were our stand ins.
1:00:44
The handsome man in blue, the particularly handsome
1:00:46
man in blue was my stand in, and
1:00:48
Renee was Sarah's. And that handsome
1:00:51
man with the those dreads or twists,
1:00:53
Deionta. Yes, dude,
1:00:57
you went from twists to bold to
1:00:59
twists to ball to twists
1:01:01
against my quarantine hair. And
1:01:04
you might remember Dante is the only person in
1:01:06
nine years of Scrubs to wear Pooka shells
1:01:08
on the show. If
1:01:12
you're ever curious who,
1:01:14
just go back to your Shoubs episodes
1:01:17
and you'll see he's the African American wearing booka
1:01:19
shell. Not only were they Pooka shells, they
1:01:21
were chokers too. He would wear a choker
1:01:24
pok nice.
1:01:26
Oh my god. I like to think it's because he got in
1:01:28
as a child and then grew into it.
1:01:44
All right, So Ian, where are you calling from,
1:01:46
sir? I'm in the town called Westchester,
1:01:48

I give that to anybody in Westchester. It's free.
1:02:20
Yes, if you live in Westchester, you're also welcome
1:02:23
to use that. Yeah, it's an
1:02:25
amazing town. Come out some time. I don't
1:02:27
think that will ever happen. That will never happen.
1:02:29
I don't really think that, you know, Listen, I've
1:02:31
only got about forty five years left. I just don't know if
1:02:33
Westchester as
1:02:38
I as I weigh rome. All
1:02:42
right, so what's your what's your question for us, sir?
1:02:45
And I hope it's I hope it's something that's that that
1:02:47
these one wonderful people can weigh in on as well.
1:02:49
Yeah. Yeah, I love to you from everyone here, um and super
1:02:51
honored. Thanks for having met dude. We're
1:02:54
so happy you're on. Men, We're happy you're here. And it all
1:02:56
has to do with that beautiful freckled lady right there
1:02:58
who had a who's smiling because she a very
1:03:00
nice date. But we'll talk about that later. Oh
1:03:03
fascinating. Yeah, And Joel
1:03:05
said in the email, She's like, hey, I don't think I don't
1:03:07
think Donald will be on with you, And I was like, that's fine,
1:03:09
I might not get my intro, but then to come in. First
1:03:11
thing I hear is Donald given me that that solid
1:03:13
interrot. So I appreciate that that's how it goes.
1:03:17
Yeah, So my question basically is just so I'm an
1:03:19
educator and um, you know, in my role,
1:03:21
like we're always reflecting on what we do, um
1:03:23
the second we finished teaching, like we're
1:03:26
our worst critics and we're
1:03:28
always picking a part like there's nobody. I don't
1:03:30
think any teacher feels like they did a phenomenal
1:03:32
job once they leave a lesson. And
1:03:34
I'm curious in your roles, um, like how
1:03:37
how you feel when you're done, Like do you feel
1:03:39
have you walked off a set? Have you walked off
1:03:41
a scene where you're like, I just there's
1:03:43
it's it, it's And I've heard you say like it's in the can
1:03:45
We're good. Um. But but I've
1:03:47
been fascinated to to hear your comments of um,
1:03:50
like some of it sounds like like I guess
1:03:52
my question is like do you go back and watch that before
1:03:55
it goes live? Or when do
1:03:57
you get a chance to like kind of watch your
1:04:00
watch your craft in action. So
1:04:02
what you're saying is actually something that
1:04:05
a lot of actors do and you
1:04:07
can't help but do it so I'll
1:04:10
have let's say, whether it be an audition or
1:04:13
you have the job. At
1:04:15
the end of the day. As
1:04:17
an actor, for me, I always reflect
1:04:20
on what I did, you know what I mean? I think back,
1:04:22
what did I do? You know what's
1:04:24
usable, what's not usable, And
1:04:28
then all of a sudden jokes start to come and
1:04:31
or the way I said it, a
1:04:34
different cadence or a different a
1:04:37
different emotion comes and I said, oh, I could
1:04:39
have did it this way, like, oh man, this
1:04:42
joke would have been really funny if I would have said this instead.
1:04:44
Or I wonder if they have the one
1:04:46
where I So that always happens.
1:04:49
Now, that doesn't mean I think I did a bad job,
1:04:52
but it definitely I definitely feel like
1:04:56
I don't always, you know, leave
1:04:58
it all out there. I don't get it all out out because
1:05:00
there's so much more after
1:05:03
you're done, and hindsight is twenty twenty
1:05:06
as as we all know. So yes,
1:05:08
in my experience, I do
1:05:11
that all the time where it's like I
1:05:13
think I did a good job, but if I just
1:05:15
had one more day to think about it, I probably could
1:05:17
have done it better. You know, I
1:05:19
would go off into the edit suite
1:05:22
on Scrubs. It was on the first floor, and
1:05:25
I would I was kind of I was I wanted to learn,
1:05:27
you know, about filmmaking, and but
1:05:29
I also wanted to
1:05:31
sort of see what they were putting in, because
1:05:34
you know, we would do so many different versions and
1:05:36
ultimately would be up to Bill what was going to go in the
1:05:38
show. And as he and I became closer,
1:05:41
I would I would campaign for things. I like, like,
1:05:43
you're not gonna put that in? That was the whole crew.
1:05:45
You know. Sometimes Bill wasn't on set, so
1:05:48
he at the time we were doing something, so he wouldn't
1:05:50
know that. Like, you know, we don't have a live studio
1:05:52
audience obviously, so we only have the crew and
1:05:54
these guys here obviously, so we
1:05:56
would we would judge it by like, oh, dude, the
1:05:58
whole crew and the and everyone was cracking
1:06:01
up. Why didn't you want to use that? So you're sort of
1:06:03
jockeying to get the version you
1:06:05
think is best in, but you have
1:06:08
to sort of let it go because it's not
1:06:10
you know, it's not unless you're the director
1:06:12
or the show runner. It's not really
1:06:14
up to you that's something you have to get used to as an
1:06:16
actor. Um different
1:06:18
from being a theater actor is that you
1:06:21
do it all these different ways and
1:06:23
then you give it off to someone and say,
1:06:25
oh, please don't make me look bad, Please
1:06:28
make me look good, and you might see
1:06:30
a cut. You know. Sometimes we've we've
1:06:32
all experienced this as actors, that you watch
1:06:34
it and you go, oh, what happened? Why
1:06:36
was that so much funnier on the day,
1:06:39
because it's all made in the in the edit
1:06:41
room. You know. Johnny Steves to jokingly
1:06:44
go, we'd finish a scene and it
1:06:46
was it had gone well, and he'd and
1:06:48
I've said this on the podcast are our main editor was
1:06:50
named John Michelle, and he'd go, we gave
1:06:52
John Michelle some mammo cockily
1:06:56
stroll he'd sort of cockily stroll off,
1:06:59
and I I remember thinking, like, yeah, we gave
1:07:01
John Michelle amo, but I hope he I hope
1:07:03
he fires
1:07:05
the gun correctly right, and
1:07:07
Johnny CEO if he didn't feel like he did something
1:07:10
right, he yelled again like he's scared.
1:07:12
Yeah, that's one you're absolutely
1:07:15
bright about that, Reynee. That's one person who
1:07:17
I believe when Johnny was done he was like, I
1:07:19
got everything out that I wanted to get
1:07:21
out. Uh, there's
1:07:23
no I didn't. I left it all on
1:07:26
the table. Welbe them to work with. We made
1:07:28
up a song for Sarah. Um And
1:07:30
because no matter how many the directors
1:07:32
on our show were always great, and they do something
1:07:34
an actor's love, which is, hey,
1:07:36
I'm good to move on? Are you okay to move on?
1:07:39
To the actor. They would say that and the actor
1:07:41
could be like, yeah, I'm good. I think I got no other
1:07:43
ideas. Let's move on. But Sarah, without
1:07:45
fail would go one more, one more,
1:07:47
and so we started calling her Sarah one Morsey.
1:07:50
Do you guys remember this song? Yes, Sarah
1:07:56
she wants one more when she's
1:07:58
had five. Sarah
1:08:04
one Morsey was one of our jams. Yeah.
1:08:06
I think, like, um, there's like that, you
1:08:08
know, there'd be like that immediate feedback that
1:08:11
you know, in between takes versus looking
1:08:13
at stuff after we've moved on, you know later.
1:08:16
I think a lot of times me and Donald would talk
1:08:18
in between takes, and you know, because
1:08:20
he trusted that, uh you know, as
1:08:22
his friend and as his stand in, he trusted me. You
1:08:24
know, we kind of discussed sometimes, like you
1:08:26
know that take or you hit this, you know,
1:08:29
and I think that really hopefully that he'll helped
1:08:31
him out. Well, yeah, absolutely takes,
1:08:34
absolutely and that's true. Like it's
1:08:36
always great to have somebody who's
1:08:39
not in the who's
1:08:42
pretty much got your back to bounce ideas
1:08:44
off of it. Yeah, I never knew that you guys did that. That's awesome.
1:08:47
Yeah, my pep talk. You
1:08:50
didn't ask. You never ask. Now.
1:08:58
Well, I also had a problem
1:09:00
remembering lines, and so uh,
1:09:03
you know, Deontay would help me with
1:09:06
You didn't have a problem memorizing lines. You chose
1:09:08
to not memorize your lines, and
1:09:11
that is a problem, sir. Yeah,
1:09:13
yeah, the problem you had was that you
1:09:15
were playing video games instead of memorizing
1:09:17
your lines. Yes, or at the club did
1:09:21
you do that? We would be at the club until like four
1:09:23
o'clock in the morning, and Zach would still be able
1:09:25
to get to work and know his lines. And shit, I used
1:09:27
we say that like we say that like it happened all the time. That
1:09:30
probably happened like five times that we were like out
1:09:32
that late over the course of this time. But I
1:09:35
two of us were out there. I would never I would
1:09:37
never um go out like if
1:09:39
I was going out out, I would and
1:09:41
we were stupid and young. I would not
1:09:44
do it on a day when I a night before I
1:09:46
had like a big monologue or something. You would go
1:09:48
out and be like what are we doing? And I'd be like, you have
1:09:50
a one page monologue and like awesome,
1:09:59
all right, Ian, what's your question? Well?
1:10:01
I just you know, I think, um, coming
1:10:04
from a LEDs and music, Um,
1:10:06
you know, I have I have a fixed my life that I could definitely use
1:10:08
some help with. But I think in terms of like this question,
1:10:11
Um, there are moments when when I watch a show
1:10:13
that things just hit me heavy and
1:10:15
the music in the background just plays such pivo
1:10:17
apart. I don't know if you if how many
1:10:19
people watch Handmaid's Tale on here they've
1:10:22
seen season two of Handmaid's
1:10:24
Tale. Um, and they bring everybody out
1:10:26
spoiler alert maybe Um, they bring all
1:10:28
the Handmaids out and they're about to hand
1:10:30
them um, and there's a song in the background.
1:10:33
I still can't listen to that song without like getting
1:10:35
a little, like fully emotional. And
1:10:37
I think, just like I would love to hear any of your thoughts in
1:10:39
terms of a if you've experience like
1:10:42
what experiences you've had with that watching like
1:10:44
just being a participant as a as a viewer
1:10:46
of a movie or show. Um. And
1:10:48
then also like if like if you've been a
1:10:50
part for anyone who's who's been a
1:10:52
part of like the musical selection or a recommendation
1:10:55
like songs that you've kind of just like pocketed and
1:10:58
brought out for that moment. That makes sense. Zach
1:11:00
is the king of soundtrack, so he
1:11:03
he'll probably have a better answer for this. But
1:11:05
I remember, you know, I'm a huge I'm
1:11:08
a huge Star Wars fan, right, And I remember
1:11:10
at a very young age knowing that the music
1:11:13
was Yeah, you didn't know that, Zach. I'm a huge Star Wars
1:11:15
fan. Donald
1:11:17
likes Star Wars, loves Star Wars
1:11:20
anyway. Um, But at a very young
1:11:22
age, I realized that the music
1:11:25
was very important for movies.
1:11:28
So when I went and saw Jaws for
1:11:30
the first time, I wasn't
1:11:32
scared of the shark coming
1:11:34
out of the water and seeing you know, the
1:11:37
gore and all of that stuff. What scared
1:11:39
me was dud dud
1:11:42
dune, dun dun dun dun dun
1:11:44
dun dun dun dun d And so
1:11:46
I would cover my ears for that, I
1:11:48
would cover my ears and still look at the screen
1:11:50
because that what the screen wasn't
1:11:53
what was scary, the music or
1:11:55
the fully effect was.
1:11:57
And so to
1:12:00
to this day, yes, I know the importance of
1:12:02
music. I will say this, my
1:12:06
first experience of a
1:12:08
good song in a movie has
1:12:10
got to be like I
1:12:13
want to say, it's uh, it's
1:12:15
six which I
1:12:21
know must
1:12:25
be true. Now
1:12:31
seen candles? What? What? What was that? From
1:12:33
its spanned out ballet? Right? Is that the song
1:12:36
is that? I don't know who sings a song. All I know is
1:12:39
hearing that song with two people
1:12:42
on a table with
1:12:44
a sixteen candle
1:12:47
birthday kid, sixteen candles. I think
1:12:49
it had to do that. I think that's what I
1:12:51
love. I have no idea what movie was
1:12:54
they were sitting with sixteen candles
1:12:57
on a birthday kid on a table. Anyway,
1:13:00
we'll get to the bottom of this, but I
1:13:02
don't know if that was the movie. But there
1:13:04
was something about that that really held weight,
1:13:07
and you know, it was glory.
1:13:09
It was glory. It was right. If a movie gets that
1:13:11
right, if a movie gets that right, if the movie can
1:13:13
find that moment and get that right, it's
1:13:15
always it's phenomenal, you know. I
1:13:18
agree, I agree, And Scrubs did that a lot
1:13:20
ian and I can only take credit for a
1:13:22
few of them. We've said this before. Christa
1:13:25
Miller was a huge part of it. There
1:13:27
were certain writers on our staff, including
1:13:30
Neil Goldman. Of course, there were lots of other people
1:13:32
who submit ideas and I occasionally got some on It
1:13:35
really can move. I
1:13:37
think of it if your emotion is sort of wavering, if
1:13:39
you're on the fence, like am
1:13:41
I going to fully go there or not? The song just sort
1:13:43
of gently pushes you, you you know. And
1:13:46
and when you're trying songs
1:13:48
out in the edit room, you
1:13:50
can literally line up forty
1:13:53
of your favorite songs and you're
1:13:55
like, this is my favorite song. I mean, why would I not too?
1:13:57
And then you try it and just nothing happens. You're
1:13:59
like, it's men, and then you just keep
1:14:01
going and then a magical reaction happens.
1:14:03
I always I always point to the air. I
1:14:06
always point to the hair on my arms going up,
1:14:08
because you'll be watching it, and all of a sudden, when
1:14:10
it's right, you get goose bumps down
1:14:12
your arms and you go, well that, And I
1:14:14
remember pointing the bill a lot of times, and I'd be like, well,
1:14:16
that's a candidate, because something
1:14:19
magical just happens. Um,
1:14:22
I know, like a like a you know on set
1:14:24
and you know, you don't hear there's no music, You're right, music
1:14:27
cup in yet when they're filming, and
1:14:29
I just remember a lot of times sitting there watching a scene
1:14:31
that's pretty sad, I'm like, yeah, that seems kind of sad,
1:14:34
and then later on post editing,
1:14:37
you know you actually watched the episode and I'm
1:14:39
over here bawling, you know that.
1:14:42
Yeah. A perfect example for
1:14:44
me is when with that is
1:14:46
when Turk
1:14:49
is having a hard time figuring out his
1:14:53
vows his at the at the wedding
1:14:55
step for the rehearsal dinner,
1:14:57
he's having a hard time finger out what he's gonna say,
1:15:00
and uh, he's
1:15:02
his brother in law has tricked him
1:15:05
into saying that when Harry met Sally.
1:15:07
Uh in the monologue that Billy Crystal does at
1:15:10
the end of when Harry met Sally, And
1:15:12
then he's off in the corner with j D
1:15:14
and he's like, I just don't get it. You know, everything
1:15:17
with Carla has just seems like perfect when such and
1:15:19
such an and when I'm around her, I blah
1:15:22
blah blah, and I just can't get over and
1:15:24
j D looks at him and goes, well, why don't you just
1:15:26
say that? And I turned
1:15:28
to her and the music that plays
1:15:31
at that moment is Gavin Degrass. Oh,
1:15:34
this is the start of
1:15:37
something good follow
1:15:40
through, don't you agree?
1:15:42
Right? And when I
1:15:45
remember seeing that with
1:15:48
Judy and I watched that that episode
1:15:50
together and she had
1:15:52
seen it already, and when that happened,
1:15:54
I think we were doing we were doing
1:15:57
was that a fart? Daniel? I
1:16:01
think my table squeaked,
1:16:03
and it
1:16:08
might be this is I'm
1:16:10
definitely not coming to Westchester, Pennsyli. No.
1:16:14
But anyway, so that that moment was,
1:16:16
It's so powerful just from
1:16:18
the lyrics alone. I didn't even know the song. I had
1:16:20
to go and buy the song after, just so
1:16:23
I could hear what the entire
1:16:25
song was. And yeah, using play such
1:16:27
a big part in cinema
1:16:29
and television. Um and
1:16:33
of course winter in in Scrubs. I
1:16:35
think in in the episode Everyone Loves is a Josh
1:16:37
Braden's song was a huge example on the
1:16:39
Scrubs mine. I think I've said this before, but
1:16:41
I always pointed to me, one of the most significant
1:16:44
moments in television song placement
1:16:47
was Seas
1:16:49
Breathed Me in at the Six Feet
1:16:51
Under finale. I don't know if you've seen that show. Oh,
1:16:55
I got so many of them, freaking adventures
1:16:57
in babysitting with Uh, well, did
1:17:00
you think I would do at
1:17:02
this moment? Family Ties uses
1:17:04
that too? Love that Yeah, same one. Family Ties
1:17:07
it the same thing, right when he breaks up
1:17:09
with the girl for the first time and he's writing
1:17:11
her a letter. Yeah, when I'm standing before
1:17:13
me ps love and
1:17:16
he crossed the girl. Wasn't the girl Courtney
1:17:18
Cox, No, that was it was his wife, Courtney
1:17:20
Cox came after. Okay. So
1:17:23
if I can say beyond songs,
1:17:25
like, the power of a composer is
1:17:27
yes, you know, unmatched.
1:17:30
I mean because I'm working on a project now, I just started
1:17:32
working with a composer and you
1:17:34
have you know, Zach, you know this
1:17:36
like if you're if you're dealing with a rough
1:17:38
cut or you know, a radio edit or something that has
1:17:41
no music or sound effects, it's
1:17:43
like it doesn't have that life. Obviously,
1:17:45
in a composer, not only can they give you that feeling,
1:17:48
they can it can take a turn so
1:17:50
like if you want to sort of like have the shift
1:17:53
in emotion, they can do those sort
1:17:55
of like variable things that
1:17:57
that's that's customed to your
1:17:59
pictures. Spoke. Yeah, right, let's be spoke
1:18:01
to your picture that a song can't um.
1:18:03
So composers, you know Scrubs,
1:18:06
any television show, they're doing such
1:18:08
volume too. It's like, I have so
1:18:10
much respect for that. Well with
1:18:13
Scrubs, you know, Jan did.
1:18:15
Our composers did a fine job, but there
1:18:17
was you know, we're cranking out so many that
1:18:20
yes, they would use a lot of the same as we
1:18:22
all joke we use a lot of the same cues
1:18:24
blah blah blah blah blah blah.
1:18:31
Or when you needed a quick sting bound,
1:18:36
yes, I think you do. Boun I
1:18:41
always joked that. One day Bill was like, hey, I
1:18:43
need a quick sting here, and Jan was like stretching.
1:18:47
Okay, let me do my work for today.
1:18:51
There you go. All
1:18:55
right, it's time for being
1:18:58
his favorite segment. It's time too
1:19:01

So thank you yea. So the time to get
1:19:29
this is like super ironic because this is the
1:19:31
question I've been I've been wanting it forever. Um,
1:19:33
today I married my wife. I
1:19:35
said to her. I'm a big back in
1:19:37
the day man. I used to make mixtapes like Nobody's
1:19:40
business. Um, and I would look
1:19:42
at like the timing of everything, make sure
1:19:44
that there was enough time and minutes and seconds and
1:19:46
everything in here. She's coming in here, she doesn't
1:19:48

1:20:10
Zach Donald, Scott, Deante, Joel.
1:20:14
Yeah, checked out of this podcast. This
1:20:16
all happened last night. Um,
1:20:19
so we're on this podcast.
1:20:21
I've been emailing them. You know. I listened to this NonStop,
1:20:25
no scrubs. She said,
1:20:30
I love it. I love that she thought I
1:20:32
was lim Manuel see
1:20:36
your name. There too many white
1:20:38
people, too many white people for Hamilton. All
1:20:41
right, welcome, happy anniversary.
1:20:44
When we got married, I made a promise every year I make
1:20:46
her a mixed team. Okay, now it's obviously
1:20:48
going to like a streaming service and like YouTube
1:20:50
playlists or whatever. But so as
1:20:52
I continue to put these together, like we've had a
1:20:54
crazy year, and so I'm always trying to
1:20:56
look for like I need, I need a jam. I need
1:20:59
a really good song that we can add
1:21:01
to this list. I love this one, I
1:21:03
love this one, and I just need
1:21:05
help kind of like, give me any I'm looking for
1:21:07
any inspiration. I mean the list
1:21:10
of songs goes from like hip hop to
1:21:12
old school to modern
1:21:14
stuff to to like Donald
1:21:16
you were talking about that sixteen candle song could
1:21:18
be on that I'm looking for. I gets
1:21:21
something to well, you know my favorite
1:21:23
one and you probably use it
1:21:25
already, but it's by Method Man
1:21:27
and Mary J. Blige. You're good
1:21:31
one I need to
1:21:34
get by I
1:21:41
Shorty. I'm there for you anytime you need
1:21:43
me. For real, girls, me and your world,
1:21:45
Believe me. Nothing to make a man feel
1:21:47
better than a woman. Bring with the crown
1:21:49
not be down for whatever. There are a
1:21:51
few things that's forever, my lady.
1:21:54
We can make war or make babies. I'm
1:21:56
just saying that's a good one. Why
1:21:58
don't we all go around and why don't we
1:22:00
all go around and recommend a song for their romantic
1:22:03
list. I'll give you, you guys a chance to
1:22:05
think about or go through your phones and look at something you
1:22:07
play a lot. I just discovered
1:22:10
this new song. By the way. I've been watching American Idol
1:22:12
this season, and I've been watched American
1:22:14
Idol in years and it's Kelly
1:22:17
No. I've seen it since then, but it's been a long time
1:22:19
since I truly watched it. And this season, you
1:22:21
know, we stumble into it and it's
1:22:23
really good. There's some genuine talent, and
1:22:27
I like that to keep it sort of young. The oldest person's
1:22:29
twenty six and the youngest person's fifteen, and
1:22:32
some of them are just like you cannot believe
1:22:34
their voices. But anyway, one of them sang
1:22:36
a song that I've been listening to NonStop. It's Ben
1:22:38
Rector brand New and
1:22:41
it's sort of a poppy rock, but it's
1:22:43
just so life affirming and it just gets you
1:22:45
amped up and makes you excited
1:22:47
to take on the day. So that's my suggestion
1:22:50
for this moment because I've been listening to it a lot.
1:22:52
Ben Rector brand new, Daniel,
1:22:55
Wait, one last thing that When Harry Met Sally
1:22:57
soundtrack has a bunch of really good
1:23:00
songs on it, whether it's It Had to Be You or
1:23:03
that Yeah you Can't Go wrong,
1:23:05
it's very it's a lot of uh, it's a lot of um
1:23:09
uh Ray Charles two on
1:23:11
it. Uh as well, You're only asked
1:23:13
for one song, but thank you. But
1:23:16
I love that endless love song, so I don't care
1:23:18
endless love, that endless love from Deonte
1:23:21
okay, Daniel. Um, this is a
1:23:23
song by one of my favorite Newish
1:23:25
artist guy named Gabriel Garsan Montano, and
1:23:27
the song is called six eight and
1:23:29
it's kind of like a weird rhythm, but
1:23:31
the weird rhythm is about the weird rhythm of love and
1:23:34
uh it's it's it's a song
1:23:36
that you know, the music matches
1:23:39
the theme and the tone. It's a really good song
1:23:41
just called six space eight. Also,
1:23:44
Bruno Mars leave the door open. I'm
1:23:47
saying I'm saying you had your
1:23:49
turn all right. Duno Mars
1:23:51
song is fire Robid. I
1:23:54
will say this song was played at
1:23:56
my wedding. Um, it's the Beatles.
1:23:59
You've got to Hide your love away. I love that song
1:24:02

1:24:04
you know, that's something that you know the first
1:24:06
time I listened to her, you like, I don't know something
1:24:08
about it, and it was played at my wedding, So I
1:24:11
feel I have to add
1:24:13
it, uh as a tribute to my wife.
1:24:15
If she's listening to this, I'm
1:24:18
sure she doesn't listen
1:24:18
to now.
1:24:21

1:25:09
but she sometimes says like these secondelic songs, and
1:25:11
I love her. It's a song called Golden Hour

1:26:42
you will find when you see Hamilton there are
1:26:44
a few more African Americans in their cast,
1:26:48
but we're a good second best. I
1:26:50

1:26:52

1:27:10
Kylie. I thought it was hilarious
1:27:12
when you walk by the trumpet player and you go by
1:27:15
trumpet player, I don't know by
1:27:18
trump you said, by trumpet player, I don't know.
1:27:21
Now I know why your music is so sad? Yeah?
1:27:25
Yeah, I made that up too. I was
1:27:27
on fire in this episode, let's be honest. I
1:27:29
also laughed at it's so hot. Yeah,
1:27:33
and then the janitor comes out and goes, this should
1:27:36
not have been removed. Oh
1:27:40
my God, and
1:27:43
then to Sam Lloyd. Yes,
1:27:46

1:27:56

1:27:59
yeah, thank you want
1:28:04
to talk about
1:28:04
God? I do
1:28:07
have something I want to plug actually,
1:28:09
can I yes, yes, Okay. I'm
1:28:11
finishing up my first documentary
1:28:13
feature, so Zach, you know how difficult
1:28:15
that process. I've been working on it for
1:28:17
like four years. And um,
1:28:19
the film is actually about a relative
1:28:22
of mine. His name is Billy Dean Anderson.
1:28:24
He was a criminal but also an outsider
1:28:27
artist who escaped a maximum security
1:28:29
prison and went to live in a Tennessee
1:28:31
cave for four and a half years while he was on the run,
1:28:34
and so in the cave he painted, sculpted,
1:28:37
kept a journal. Um. So
1:28:40
my sort of intent with the project is to shift
1:28:42
the focus away from his criminality, which the
1:28:44
local sort of prop up um
1:28:46
as this like he's as this defiant sort
1:28:48
of folk hero figure, and uh, shift
1:28:50
focused to his art, his art and his creative
1:28:53
life, and sort of show the
1:28:55
power of his art to reconnect him to his humanity.
1:28:58
Sounds incredible, Yeah, that's I'm
1:29:00
working with a composer now in like in the final
1:29:02
stages. All right, So you're just telling everyone
1:29:04
to look out for it when when it's done, it's what you're saying, Yes
1:29:07
I have. What's the website it's called a
1:29:10
Long Hard Streak, which is not pornographic
1:29:12
in anyway. It's it's actually a piece of his
1:29:14
writing. It's like a
1:29:17
brain. My brain did not go to something pornographic,
1:29:24
thanks Scott. It's
1:29:27
a section of his writing. It's a it's a it's
1:29:30
like a phrase from his poetry. Okay,
1:29:32
And what's the website where people can check out your work?
1:29:34
It's Long Hard Streak dot com, Longhardstreak
1:29:37
dot com. Everyone check out the legendary
1:29:40
Scott Rabidu's documentary, which
1:29:42
sounds very interesting. I'll be the first person watching
1:29:44
it when you're done, Deane. Anything
1:29:46
you want to um
1:29:51
No, I just want to you know, I'm not plug anything. I just want to say,
1:29:53
I'm want to plug you guys say thanks
1:29:55
a lot for having us on, Thanks a lot for you
1:29:58
know, the years on Scrubs. You
1:30:00
know, you guys probably don't even realize
1:30:02
that you know, we're standing in so we're watching
1:30:05
all the time. That's all we do. Were there fourteen hours
1:30:07
a day. I learned so much
1:30:10
from from from Uzach and you, Donald
1:30:12
and Bill and the directors and all
1:30:14
the writers. It
1:30:17
was just I couldn't I couldn't ask for a better
1:30:19
place to actually learn comedy.
1:30:23
Um, you guys don't know. Like after the show ended, I
1:30:25
went on to stand in on other
1:30:27
shows, mostly sitcoms, and every
1:30:29
show I went to I would end up getting
1:30:31
a part because I would do the run
1:30:33
through for something that's not cast
1:30:36
and they would be like, wow, this guy gets
1:30:38
it and gets comedy. And it was because the
1:30:42
training I got on scrubs every day.
1:30:44
So I just want to say thank you, thank you. It
1:30:47
was you went off and did improv for a bit too,
1:30:49
though, didn't you. I did? I did uh
1:30:51
Neil Flynn, you know. I just thought he was
1:30:54
hilarious and he put me onto his
1:30:56
improv Olympic UH studio
1:30:59
and I went there for a couple of years and
1:31:01
did all their all their levels of training
1:31:03
and shows over there. So
1:31:05
I mean I was going to work with you guys twell,
1:31:07
fourteen hours a day, leaving there going straight
1:31:09
over to do improv. So
1:31:12
for years, I just I feel like, I just got the
1:31:14
best training that
1:31:16
you could possibly get and it just let you
1:31:18
know, it just lets me to get more work
1:31:20
just because you guys, and you guys are always so generous.
1:31:23
I don't yes out there, you guys don't know. I would have auditions
1:31:25
and these guys like I
1:31:28
like almost everyone on the cast, like what are you doing to day?
1:31:30
I'm like, oh, I got an audition at you all right, well
1:31:33
let's see it, and they would help
1:31:35
me. So it was just amazing.
1:31:37
I couldn't well. We always
1:31:39
we always rooted, We always rooted for all you guys,
1:31:42
and we love you. And I'm so happy
1:31:44
to see you. I mean, I I just I
1:31:47
really miss you guys, and I look at you and I
1:31:49
just have a smile creep across my face because I
1:31:51
think of all the fun times we had together. Renee,
1:31:54
is there anything you want to Well, No, I'm
1:31:56
I'm I'm a stay at home mom now
1:31:58
and well homeschooling because of COVID. But
1:32:01
yeah, Scrubs. It helped me.
1:32:03
After I left Scrubs, I was a
1:32:05
PR director for an arts foundation
1:32:07
in school, and of course being on Scrubs
1:32:10
helped me to, you know, be
1:32:12
a good PR person because
1:32:14
I was so used to you
1:32:16
know, it kind of gave me the confidence and the background
1:32:20
to feel solid in that
1:32:22
career and that I did that for
1:32:24
many years until I became a stay
1:32:26
at home mom, And to
1:32:28
this day, I mean I would ask I
1:32:30
would ask Andy rosson why
1:32:33
he lit things certain ways, why he did
1:32:35
that, how he got rid
1:32:37
of shadows? And I can take great
1:32:40
photos of my of my daughter
1:32:43
because every single person on
1:32:45
Scrubs had I had a camera,
1:32:47
had a like ahead of this, head of that, and
1:32:49
they were all doing these things
1:32:52
and you just couldn't help but get it
1:32:55
was like it was like a course. Yeah,
1:32:58
you know private. I
1:33:00
feel the same way. I um.
1:33:04
I think about how much I learned from from
1:33:06
people on that show and and
1:33:09
and even for me it's the often
1:33:12
obviously Bill, but a lot of the directors. I mean, so
1:33:14
much I learned about comedy directing from It
1:33:16
was like a grad school. We all got to
1:33:18
learn from all these really really talented people. Yeah
1:33:21
yeah, Zach, I mean I echoed
1:33:23
exactly what Deonte said, Oh, now you're gonna get
1:33:27
tip. No, but in
1:33:29
the sense of being behind the camera,
1:33:31
because you know, obviously our job was to stand
1:33:33
there and we basically observed and I got to
1:33:35
see camera, lighting, sound,
1:33:38
every how the sausage was made. And obviously,
1:33:41
Zach, watching you was amazing.
1:33:43
Um, and I learned so much from you as you
1:33:45
were learning from other people. And it was just this environment
1:33:48
where you know, it was everything was so open, you
1:33:50
know. I think I strapped the steady cam on a few times
1:33:52
and the you know, everyone just let
1:33:54
you learn and let you do what you needed
1:33:56
to do. And it's really like helped me in
1:33:58
this sort of like one man band type
1:34:01
filmmaking. I do. Now, awesome,
1:34:03
last question and then I'll let this go. I'm sorry,
1:34:05
Zach. Have you, guys
1:34:07
worked with other people from the show since
1:34:09
the show? I
1:34:12
worked with with Jane Um
1:34:15
Jane right, you know writer. I
1:34:17
worked with her on a sitcom for about
1:34:20
uh four or five years right
1:34:23
after Scrubs. And that's
1:34:25
about it, though. That's only person I've really seen. Um.
