She looked like a million bucks. Scams a bunch of famous athletes out of untold fortunes.

Nearly $10 million was all gone. It's just unbelievable. Hide your money in your old Richmond because she is on the prowl. Listen to Queen of the Con, Season 5, The Athlete Whisperer, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Yes. What is up, people? Hey, you're a little tardy today, huh?

A little tardy? Don't worry. We had a 10-minute conversation without you. That's great. Did you record it and it's going to be on the show? No, because Joelle started saying funny shit and I was like, save it for the show, Joelle. Save it for the show. What you got to save for the show, yo?

What you got to save? I'm not telling you. I'm going to work it seamlessly into conversation. That's what a good podcast host I am. Okay. How are you, my friend? I'm good. How are you?

Are you playing tennis? I wish. I'm trying to get back to you. You're asking, you're saying because of this shirt. I wish. Maybe I'm secreting it. Maybe I'm manifesting that I want to play tennis again by wearing this shirt. That's smart.

Our friend Amanda Kloots has gotten addicted. She's like, you know, after Nick's death, she said,, and this, by the way, Amanda Kloots is the queen of manifestation. She's like, I want to get into a new hobby that helps me not only take my mind off of it, but is something I can just embrace. And it's a new thing. And she chose tennis and she plays twice a week. And I watch her videos on, she started from zero and she's like getting badass. She's getting good quick. Well, she's an athlete. She's athletic. She's got that athletic build. started from zero, and she's, like, getting badass. She's getting good quick. Well, she's an athlete.

She's athletic. She's got that athletic build. And, you know, because it's Amanda, she's all into the outfits. So every week is a different, like, tennis outfit, you know. Right. She jumps into the outfits that she uses in tennis, which I am too, by the way, which I am too. Look good, play good.

That's how it goes. I, you know, because I never played a sport, and I love tennis. And I'm not that good at it, but I still don't give a fuck. I love it. So, yeah, for my first time in my life, I was like, okay, let me get some dope tennis clothes. Yeah, it's nothing like looking in the mirror with your sport of choice in, you know, whether it be a basketball or a hockey stick or a golf club or a tennis racket. So do you get all into golf clothes? Because I never see what you wear on the golf course.

I was originally. And then now not so much. You know, PXG, the fine people over at PXG, hook a brother up with some really nice clothes every now and then. I see. Well, PXG, since you're getting all these free shout-outs from Donald, I don't know why you're doing it once in a while. I mean, send this fucking dude a giant box.

I mean, several boxes. Maybe not curse at them, though. No, I'm sorry, PXG. PXG, if we're going to give you free advertising for golf wear, I want a fucking truck to back up. You did it again. Oh, sorry, PXG. I'm very passionate about this.

Donald and I used to go to this Nike store, this hidden Nike store in Marina Del Rey. Donald was the one who introduced me to this because I was not famous, obviously, before Scrubs. Donald was. And he's like, oh, dude, you have no idea what's coming. And you go to this secret Nike town in Marina Del Rey. Right, Donald? Yeah, you got it. And picture a giant Nike town that you've been in,

except picture there's no cash register. And you're just like that, that, that. And a woman's walking around, very nice, and she's just on her little iPad making notes. Shout out, Tracy. Shout out, Tracy from Nike. Shout out, Tracy from Nike, although we haven't heard from you in a minute, Tracy.

You know what I mean? Show's been heard from you in a minute, Tracy. You know what I mean? Show's been off the air for a while, Tracy. Ain't heard from you in a while. So anyway, they give you a ton of free Nike because they just want you out and about wearing Nike. And then on Scrubs, they would always send us tons of Nike. But I remember when we were on Scrubs and I did a play with Jimmy Smits, and he had been on Law & Order forever. And I was showing off my new nike shit to him and he's like oh tracy and i go yeah yeah he goes yeah that kind of stops when you're off your tv

show and i was like and in my head i'm thinking like oh jimmy smiths not me meanwhile i haven't heard from tracy in forever Good times. Anyway, so. I still am loyal to Nike, I got to say, even though I don't get the free swag anymore. I love Nike sneakers. Yeah, same here. I still buy.

I buy now, you know. We're making it up for all the free times. For all the free times. I buy now. Hi, friends. Welcome to the program. Fake Doctors, Real Friends. We have a very exciting guest.

The most handsome man in television is here, Scott Foley, today to talk about SeaWorld and all things Sarah Chalk. Are we going to talk about SeaWorld? Are we going to really get into what SeaWorld turned into after our Scrubs episode? Well, SeaWorld didn't turn into anything. It was always that. But we didn't know that. I know, and I think we should talk openly about all things SeaWorld, what our impressions were

after watching the documentary Blackfish. I mean, I don't even want to go to zoos anymore. I feel as an adult. Yeah, I feel bad. I understand. I totally understand if you're already yelling at your listening device going, Zach, my kids love zoos.

I get it. It might be a blast to take a child to a zoo. But I'm telling you as an adult, and even maybe after the documentary Blackfish, I look at zoos totally differently these days. Absolutely. I should bring in Foley because, or do you want to sing? How do you want to do it? There's so much to talk about, Donald. We have to talk about our voting thing, which is off and running. Go to headcount.org slash Zach and Donald to register to vote or to check your registration.

I've been so happy today, Donald, because on my Instagram, there's been so many people saying stuff like, you know, I was just doing this to give you guys some points towards your goal of the Appletini making,

and I realized they had my middle name wrong. You totally helped me out. Or someone said, you know what? I've never voted, but because of this, OK, I'll register. Like, even if it's, like, small and anecdotal, Donald, we're making a tiny difference. Zach, it helped me, too. Oh, yeah.

Joelle, tell them your story. Yeah. So I moved, and I stopped driving. And so I don't have a California state driver's license anymore. And that is how you get automatically registered out here. So I, too, was just doing my producer due diligence, being like, oh, I wonder if there'll be any hiccups. They're like, it's a very smooth process, by the way. There are no hiccups.

Super smooth. And so I checked, and it was like, you're not registered. And I was like, no! Yes. It's very jarring and alarming. We got Joelle registered, Donald. I would have cried so hard. It would have been really upsetting if I couldn't have voted.

I would have been so shocked, and I would have called you a hypocrite for not checking on your stuff. And you would have been right to. But thankfully, Joel, you did your due diligence. You did what you had to do, and you registered to vote. to vote. Therefore, Zach, we are 1,499 people away. We don't know.

I'm waiting to hear. By the way, this is going to air Thursday, obviously, and it's Tuesday today. I have no idea where we are, but we just launched today. But I'm all excited. It isn't the Red Bull talking. I really am titillated. Did you have a Red Bull again today? I had a Red Bull. I spawned on Peloton.

Did you spin today? I didn't. I've been doing school all morning. Come on, buddy. You're supposed to be my spin buddy. I will spin later. I'm sorry. I want you to be my spin partner so we can track our progress.

Eventually, when I'm good enough, I can look at your username and I can be like, faster. You can send high fives. You can send virtual high fives. I'm going to high five the shit out of you. And I will accept your high fives and virtually high five you back. Let's get Scott Foley up in here. Bring in Foley. Maybe we'll let him count us in. That's a good idea.

Oh my god. Scott Foley! So handsome. Thunderous applause, Dan. Scott Foley. Turned my God. Scott Foley. Scott Foley. So handsome. Thunderous applause, Dan. Scott Foley. Turned my key. There he is. I turned my key.

Scott Foley. Scott Foley. Oh, my God. You know why it's even harder to look at Scott Foley? Because Donald and I made a video to get people to vote Scott Foley. And a handful of people are like, wow, you got old. And it really hurts it really hurts

and they say negative things and they always put the emoji of the crying laughing thing as if to be like just kidding kind of shit and it's like I don't like you if we were

if this were real world we wouldn't be friends because you told me i now look old i'm 40 fucking five we made the show when i was 20 what do you want from me i was 25 sorry are you not fully sorry welcome to the program thanks man are you saying that i look old no i'm saying i get. I get triggered by looking at your beautiful face. About the gray in my beard? No, because you wear it well. You're fucking TV Scott Foley. Look how handsome he is, Donald.

He's very handsome. I've known this for a really long time, though. I've known this forever. Weird that he put you on the spot. The only reason Scott Foley comes on the show is because we spend the first 10 minutes talking about how hot he is. The only reason Scott Foley comes on the show is because we spend the first 10 minutes talking about how hot he is. It's because I spend my life with my wife who's like, go do something productive. And she doesn't care what I look like anymore.

Where are you, Scott Foley? He's in his movie theater. It's got to be a movie theater. I'm in my movie theater. Yeah. Are you really? No, man. No. Where are you, Scott Foley?

I'm in my movie theater. Oh, shit! Oh, shit! Oh, my God. Scott Foley has a movie theater. Oh, shit. Scott Foley got a screening room done. By the way, I totally thought he was being stupid.

So fired. And then you said it sort of like, yeah, I'm in my movie theater. And then he spins the camera around to reveal his fucking dope screening room the hint was the scream 3 uh poster in the background i was like yeah yeah sorry are you in scream 3 scuff fully are you kidding me i was in that that third one yes i was donald have you seen scream 3 i've seen no three yes i have really yeah dude you, have you seen Scream 3? I've seen Scream 3. Yes, I have. Really? Yeah. Dude, you were making... Joel, have you seen Scream 3? We were doing...

All of the Screams. They're classics. Okay. We were doing Felicity around the time you were doing Scream 3. Oh, yeah. That's right. That's right. That's right.

Yes. Look, here's the excuse for the screening room is I just moved from LA to the East Coast where things are much more affordable over here and you can get a house with a screening room. Well, where not in New York city, Connecticut. Oh, okay. Well, now why did you move? You're in Connecticut right now? I'm in Connecticut right now. And you've got a movie theater that quick. You don't, your money travels fast, man. He's TV Scott Foley. He can have a fucking screening room, bro. money travels fast, man. He's TV's Scott Foley. He can have a fucking screening room, bro. He was

just in Calabasas like five days ago, it seems like, and now all of a sudden he lives in Connecticut. Was this for work or for just life change? Just a life change. With everything happening in the world, my wife has wanted to be close to her family for years now, and I

you know, what do you do? You can only fight with your wife for so long. So I was like, yeah, sure. So you're one of the people that moved out of California. That's me. And it seems like maybe at the right time. Yeah. Well, I'm not going to allow you to shit talk California, Scott Foley.

It's 90 degrees today. No, no, no, no. It's 100 degrees today. Well, you live in the valley. It's probably going to be 140 over there. It's going to get up to 103 or degrees today. Well, you live in the valley. It's probably going to be 140 over there. It's going to get up to 103 or 104 today. I'm not going to let you shit talk the valley here, Zach. Sorry.

What's going on? No, but Scott Foley, it does get hotter in the valley. I mean, come on. It does, but 140? Let's be honest here. 114 maybe. Right. That's record breaking.

You can feel it when you drive from hollywood over the hill into the valley all of a sudden you roll down your windows and you're like oh oh it's hotter here yeah it's hotter there that definitely is but i do i do miss it a little bit but i'm uh happy to be here on a nice rainy day in connecticut with you guys we're so happy to have you you know when we first had you on i I said we've got to have Scott back when he forlornly rides a dolphin, which is one of my favorite moments in Scrubs history. I didn't realize it was coming up so quickly here, the second episode of the third season. But there it is. You were forlornly riding a dolphin.

I was forlornly. I didn't realize it was coming up so quickly either. And I haven't seen that episode in probably 10 years, and I watched it today with my wife before this podcast, and when that scene came on, I was like, babe, babe, forlornly. See that? She was like, yeah, you did it.

The reason I always laugh. Was that the direction Mike Spiller gave you? No, that was the screen direction. It was written in the script. Sean forlornly rides a dolphin. Yeah. That's why I love it. It was in the script.

Well, well done. Well done. Thanks, man. By the way, it's harder to do than you would expect because you're so excited to actually be riding a dolphin to turn that excitement scott are you saying other than happiness scott are you saying that one of the hardest acting moments you've had to do is turn your your utter glee in riding a dolphin into being forlorn yes 100 imagine getting the opportunity to be at sea world to be in the tank riding a dolphin holding onto fin, and to have to act like you're not the happiest man in the world?

More for Lorne, Scott. More for Lorne. Yeah, I mean, you listeners who love the show never got to read some of the screen direction, which was often funny. And I think one of the best lines ever was, in the script, Sean for Lorne Lee rides a dolphin. Yeah. And you know, Mr. Lawrence will tell you that it is still to this day

one of his favorite screen directions that he's ever written or read. I don't know if he wrote it. He loves it. Okay, I have a question. Are you still doing school in LA and stuff like that then? No, they go to school here.

Public school is good here, Donald. How long have you been in Connecticut for? Two months. Two months. You know, Donald, if you bring your kids to Connecticut and then you can send them to public school, all that extra money goes to a nice screening room. Well, yeah. I mean, let's be honest with everyone out there. If you live in California, you're probably paying way more than you would pay anywhere else in the country for housing and a place to live. Not Manhattan, but yeah, close.

Well, come on, man. I mean, that's the other place. If you're on either coast and you live in San Francisco or freaking just the state of California alone or the island of Manhattan. Right. The island of Manhattan. You are paying out. Fuck that. Fuck just the whole. Not in the island of Manhattan. Right. That's right. The island of Manhattan. You are paying out. Fuck that. Fuck just the whole.

Not even the island of Manhattan. Brooklyn. Queens. The Bronx. All the five boroughs. All the boroughs. If you live on one of those things, you're paying out your ass, man. And so, yeah, Connecticut.

I would love to move to. I remember when Connecticut was like the rich people. I mean, Scott's rich, obviously, but I remember he got a movie theater. What? He got a movie theater. He got a movie theater. You can't say shit. Put him on blast. You got a movie theater.

Seriously. You can't say shit. I'm on blast, dude. How am I putting him on blast? He got a movie theater. Well, he doesn't have like a butler. He doesn't have Farnsworth Bentley. And in walks Jeeves, right?

Sir, your water. Not now, I'm busy. Your water, Mr. Foley. Donald, we never started this thing, the theme song. Do you want to lead us in song? I think Scott should do it. Scott Foley, do you know how to count into a song by saying five, six, seven, eight? It's an honor we only bestow on certain people. He did it time oh i forgot i'm sorry i have a short turnaround loss five six seven

eight stories about the show we made about a bunch of docs and nurses and a janitor who loved to hate i said here's the stories that you all should know. So gather round to hear our, gather round to hear our Scrub Free Wild Show with Zach and Donald. Scott, we've been talking a little more about fitness lately because Donald and I are trying to get in shape. We've entered the quarantine phase where we're trying to get in shape. We've both been spinning using Peloton. We've both been working out a bit. You've always seemed like a super fit guy. What's your regimen for the people who are... We also had a lot of people

in all seriousness that have told us they listen to the podcast while they walk. It's got them beginning the process. They hike or they cycle or whatever they do. It's got them moving a bit. One guy we had on the show said he lost 30 pounds since the show started. So we're kind of excited that we're motivating people a little bit, and I wondered if you could tell people what you're up to because you're always in shape. Oh, that's very kind of you. I think the trick is seeming to always be in shape, isn't it?

No, man. One of the great things I think about doing what we do is that you sort of have to keep yourself in some semblance of physical fitness, right? And I've been lucky enough to have trainers throughout the years that have, off and on, that have taught me what to do and how to keep myself in shape and how to get sort of camera ready should I need to in a certain amount of days. But my daily routine is pretty simple. As I'm sitting in front of you, I'm 48 years old, so I wake up every morning and can't move because I'm sore everywhere. So I wake up and I stretch for probably 15, 20 minutes, just basic touching the toes, sort of yoga stuff, downward dog, and then I'll probably spend 20 minutes either on the Peloton or on an elliptical machine.

I also got a rowing machine. That's the other thing about buying a house in Connecticut. You get a gym in your house. Yeah. Wait, so you got a movie theater and a gym in your house. Yeah, Connecticut, Donald. Yeah. Let's both move there.

This is a weird trivia. Did you get – I don't have a pool. I don't even have a – I don't have a pool. Yeah, well, you have 40,000 children. Scott, did you get into rowing because of Tony Goldwyn, our friend? Because he's – that's his – that's how he keeps fit. That is how he keeps fit.

Tony's a good rower and a really sort of avid jogger as well. I did not. I found it. Uh, when did I find it? I was in, when we were shooting whiskey Cavalier in Prague, uh,

I went, I needed some sort of exercise equipment in the place I went. The guy was like, I have rowing machine. And I was like, well, I guess that's what I'm going to take. Uh,

and that was, that was how I got started. And I only do, it's tough. Like you can't do 20 minutes of rowing, half an hour of rowing. Your back is fucked if you do that. Dude, and it's exhausting. Right.

So I do like five minutes in the beginning of a workout, five minutes at the end, just sort of keep the heart rate up. Tony Goldwyn, who was the president of the United States in Scott's fancy show Scandal, and I made a film together. And he was always ripped. Randall and I made a film together and he was always ripped. I don't know how old he is now, but he's like the most ripped guy in his over 50 that I know. More ripped than Brad Pitt. Tony's a unicorn. More ripped than Brad Pitt.

For his age, yeah. Well, yeah, for his age, I'm sure. Yeah, and he's also not an international movie star with probably a trainer every day and a chef every day. He does it all on his own. And for the most part, it was a rolling machine. What are you smiling at, Scott? Am I wrong? He has a chef and a trainer? He's a Goldwyn. I mean, you've got to remember.

Oh, yeah. His grandfather is Samuel Goldwyn. No, he is... Tony's a unicorn, though. It was always the thing on Scandal, I'd have a shirts-off scene, like a love scene with Kerry Washington. And Tony would be at craft service with his shirt off eating donuts, like just to make me feel like a big piece of shit. Right. He's an amazing human, but it just doesn't work like that for most people.

Yeah. It takes work. It takes a lot of commitment. I think the older you get, the more time you got to put in, the more time it takes to lose whatever you gained. That's right for all of us except for Donald. What are you talking about? I'm the heaviest I've ever been in my life right now. Yeah, he's thick.

People on Instagram said he's T-H-I-C-C. I don't even know what that means. That's that good thick. That's that good thick. Oh, that's good thick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's that good thick. This is that time during the pandemic where it's been like six months and we all should be in shape by now.

But we're realizing like, oh, oh, this might end soon and I'm going to be a big fatty. Right, and I'm going to be a beast. Yeah, but it's all right. You also were called swole, Donald. What does that mean? It means my muscles are freaking swollen. Oh, okay. So you were getting indirect compliments.

I thought they were disses. I was called old, and you were called swole and thick. Yeah, I was also called freaking the dude from Westworld. Yeah, by me. That was funny, though. Not just you. Not just you. People like that joke, though.

Somebody call me Uncle Phil. They said I look like Uncle taller than you though right much taller than me yeah yeah yeah oh my god that's funny first things first rest in peace uncle phil oh dude real. You don't look like, you do look like, what's his name? But he's very handsome and he's a very fine actor. Oh, okay. Thank you. Jeffrey Wright. I love that.

I love that you said that about him. You do look like Jeffrey Wright, except that he is a handsome man. No, that's not what I said. I said, you do look like Jeffrey Wright. And not only is he a handsome man in my estimation, but he's also a phenomenal actor. I think that's a compliment. Saying you look like Uncle Phil is a bit of a diss. Rest in peace, Uncle Phil.

Uncle Phil is loved throughout the world. Uncle Phil raised mad kids, man. Uncle Phil raised mad kids just by being Uncle Phil on television. Okay, I'm just saying that I'd rather be called Jeffrey Wright than Uncle Phil. But he might be different for you. Nah, man. He's one of the best father figures ever in the history of TV. Whenever Donald and I take a picture together these days, Scott, they say things like, wow, Donald doesn't age, black don't crack.

What happened to Zach? And it hurts my heart cage. It rhymes well. It really rhymes well. I was about to say, everything rhymes. That's why they do that shit, dude. Wow, Donald looks good. Black don't crack what happened to zach oh i told you i could freestyle should we get into the show oh yeah so donald these days scott i don't know if we had this

feature when you were on last donald does a 37 summation is it 37 or 47 it's supposed to be 30 seconds uh it's roughly 30 seconds but he never hits that goal and we don't penalize him in any way even though we should i have heard it and i'm very impressed with what with actually the time you've been putting into your summaries and the fact that you get it all out and they're usually i i say that because i haven't heard all of them but the ones i've heard are spot on my friend oh boy here we go and on that note here we go he's right he's right he's right all right ready and go turk and carla have set the date for their wedding jd fears his friendship to turk will not have to take a back seat to his best friend's future just when elliot

switches up her style she's revisited by an old flame. And Laverne is in desperate need of a dentist. This episode's about how hard relationships are to manage. The expectations are so high and you make yourself so vulnerable and there are so many distractions and other commitments and responsibilities to have in a relationship. But when you truly have someone, you make it work. You sacrifice. And that's it. Amen. I like that one.

Me too. Well, Matt. Because it is about sacrifice. But let's get to the headline, which is the Turks homophobic. I would have never remembered this. I would have never remembered this either, dude. I would have never guessed this. It comes out of nowhere.

Not to diss our overlord, Mr. William Van Duser, Lawrence III, or the fourth, whatever the hell he is. But I didn't understand why all of a sudden Dirk's homophobic. I mean, he shows no signs of that in the first two seasons. He's as close with his best friend as can be. with his best friend as can be, we're very open with our feelings and we're very open with our ability to hug and touch each other. And then all of a sudden, Turk's homophobic?

I didn't get it. Yeah, I didn't get it either. I was very caught off guard by that. I think it was more of a reason to have, I don't know, I can't explain it. I can't explain this to you. I can't explain why out of nowhere, all of a sudden, Turk was homophobic. Yeah, I didn't get it.

And then it's solved so quickly. So then the guy kind of confronts him and like, seems like you're not really comfortable with this. And then you do something a homophobic person probably wouldn't do. I sit down on the bed. You get on the bed. Yeah, I sit down on the bed. Right get on the bed. Yeah, I sit down on the bed. Right up next to him and get sort of intimate.

And then you talk about your fear of intimacy, which is bullshit. You haven't had any fear of intimacy thus far. Right. I don't know. I didn't understand. I was caught off guard by this. And I didn't remember this either. That was the other thing.

It was like, wait a second. I don't remember any of this from any of it was really bizarre and i also noticed that when the guy's partner comes in and says goodbye good luck on your surgery he kisses him on the forehead yeah i was waiting for the lip kiss like like like who would ever do that your your your partner's going into surgery and you're saying goodbye and you give him it was such like a it felt like such a vestige of 2002 television, like, let's have that kiss be on the forehead. Right, right. The forehead says plenty, trust me. You can imagine the network executive was like, forehead's good, thank you.

I was impressed, though. Even though you don't remember it, and that was one of the questions I had for you in this. Like, was it a surprise when you read it? Because it seems like the friendship you and J.D., the Turk and J.D. have toes that line. Yeah, at certain points. You know what I mean? But that said, you had some reactions in there that made me laugh out loud. there that made me laugh out loud yeah i mean i i cringed at the fact that i cringed at a lot of my reactions because they were reactions to these two men and their uh love for each other you know

what i mean like i at one point i even make the face like it's almost nauseating yeah you know what i mean and it was like wait a second what? Like, this really comes out of nowhere. I'm sure back when we shot this, I was thinking, you know, this will be groundbreaking. We're going to talk about, you know. Homosexuality. Homosexuality on television. And I'm so happy to be the character that has to learn this lesson. You know what I mean? Right.

But when you look back at it now, at the whole, you know, at the show as a full circle or as a thing, it doesn't fit. It's like something that – It does feel a little out of place. Like someone else should have been the one to be needing to learn that lesson. It certainly didn't feel like it was Turk's lesson to learn. Like it might have been – like I don't even think it's – I don't even think Rob would learn that. I don't even think rob would learn that i don't know because we learned that we learned that the todd one thing that's funny about the todd is that you think he's just a a gross alpha male sexual innuendo guy for for for women and then we turned out no he's into men he's into old people he's

into monkeys he's into monkeys he's down with a monkey like Like everything's, he never hooks up with a monkey. He just asks where to find him. Where is said monkey? He says, where is said monkey? There's a monkey at the zoo. What was the monkey? There's a monkey at the zoo that is something like biting another monkey on the butt or something like that. Something fresh that the monkey was doing either to another monkey or to people who came to visit the monkey. And Rob was like, sorry, the Todd was like,

I want to go and have this happen to me. Where is said monkey? Where is said monkey? His actual line was, kid, listen to me right now. Where is said monkey? That said, though, and I know we're not at that part of the show, but we're talking about it. I thought it was a great bit that I didn't

see coming when we first met the patient the fact that they were basically your doppelgangers right? Yeah I didn't see that either. No I was like is that Josh Groban? and then when I realized it wasn't and was supposed to look like Zach

it wasn't until his black husband came in I was like oh oh and they were dressed similarly I realized it wasn't and was supposed to look like Zach. It wasn't until his black husband came in. I was like, oh, oh, and they were dressed similarly. I got it. Yeah. But that made Turk look wince. He looked like, oh my God. It was so weird. I didn't get it.

Yeah, I didn't get it either. Let's talk about Marsha Brady and my fantasy that I'm getting married to. Because Sarah Elliott says that she's already picked her wedding date, which is funny because it's April 25th, 2006, which at the time, I think this was 2002, was supposed to seem far away.

It's Mary McCormick, not Marsha Brady. I know, but the joke is... Marsha, please. But that's the joke. She goes, we're getting married. The priest is marrying us, and she goes, do you take Marsha Brady? She goes, my name is Marine McCormick.ormick and i go marcia please continue father marcia please i love that

that was all she was in like that was it just the one little fantasy flashback and then you're done does she come back and do another does she do another episode i don't think so i think this is it but man i i did you of the br, did you have a crush on Marcia Brady? Either one of you? That's the Brady to have a crush on. That's it. I thought she was so cute when I was a kid. Yeah, she was.

Yeah, she was. Still is. Still is. I was about to say, she's beautiful in this episode. Yeah, beautiful. Oh, man. Beautiful. I didn't have a crush on Jan, though.

I don't think anyone really had a Jan crush. Well, I don't know, man. I, man. Beautiful. I didn't have a crush on Jan, though. I don't think anyone really had a Jan crush. I don't know, man. I don't. I'm sure there's Jan. Somebody did. There's probably a Facebook group. People who are obsessed with Jan. We do love Jan.

Oh, by the way, I should mention, I wanted to tell you, there is a Facebook group for this podcast that we're doing here, apparently. And I think it's lovely if you want to be involved with it. I just wanted to make sure everyone involved with it knows we have nothing to do with it. We don't read it. We don't endorse it. Neither Donald and I mess with Facebook at all

other than to go on there occasionally and say, hey, please check this out. So by all means, enjoy the Facebook group or get in arguments like people do on Facebook. But just know that Donald and I don't have anything to do with it. Yo, I can't post anything now without people getting into arguments. Yeah, welcome to 2020. Holy cow, you post something and right underneath it, it's like, you know, argument, argument, argument, argument, argument.

And it's like salacious too, like just evil things people are saying to each other. Like, you know, it's crazy. I did want to talk about – Breaking, going to a break like Joel wants you to. Oh, Scott, you're not supposed to look at the chat. That's not for guests. Scott, you are – I'm just sorry.

She sent the chat out and I just – I set a timer to see how long it would be until either one of you guys got it. How long was it? And now it's making me uncomfortable. You are a guest. Scott, you are a guest in our house. This is not your job. That's like you came over and adjusted our AC.

This is not your job. This is not your job. Well, if it's hot in your house, I'm going to adjust your AC. No, Scott, you don't touch my shit. You don't touch it. That's like me getting in your car and touching your radio, damn it. I don't do that shit. Don't call my shirt.

I think you've done that. I think you got in my car and said, what the fuck are we listening to and push this and then i said it was kenny loggins and you were like oh wow and you went back to it i love i do love kenny loggins i do i know man this is it the guests like sarah chalk and scott foley they just come in and start reading the fucking producer chat well you know what we'll go to break we'll be right back you're happy scott foley you're happy scott yes Come in and start reading the fucking producer chat. Well, you know what? We'll go to break. We'll be right back. You happy? You happy, Scott? You happy, Scott Foley?

We started talking about this incident. Drugs and officials cover up. You couldn't believe it. From iHeart Podcasts. It's like the police knew who he was before they got here. A story about money, power, and corruption. The medical school dean at USC was leading a secret double life. Is she breathing right now?

Yes, she's absolutely breathing. I'm a doctor, actually. There's no way that that guy's a doctor. I'm Paul Pringle, and I'm an investigative reporter for the LA Times. This is the story of an investigation that starts in a hotel room in Pasadena, California, and reaches all the way to the top of two of the most powerful institutions in the city of Los Angeles. When people fall in line, they fall in line. Looking back, I realized, oh, everyone knew.

This is Fallen Angels, the story of California corruption. We're always going to have predators. It's the good people who stand by and do nothing that allow them to flourish. Listen to Fallen Angels, the story of California corruption, starting March 28th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back! That was really loud, dude.

That was really loud. You have such balls to tell me I'm loud. You are the loudest. There are women who breastfeed who write me on my chat saying, oh, my God. Why does what they're doing, why does breastfeeding have anything to do with how loud I am? Because they've got the baby suckling, and maybe they're listening to earphones, and then you go full loud, and the baby's like adjusting. He breaks his latch. He looks up.

What the fuck is that? And now you've ruined everything. It's hard to get a good latch back. Yeah, it's hard to get a good latch back, Donald. You should know that, especially on those beautiful melted ocean kisses. You're frozen. Donald is frozen right now. He's not frozen

visually. He's frozen analog. For some reason, listening to our podcast is a very popular activity for breastfeeding moms. I hear about it a lot. That is, okay.

Well, to all the breastfeeding parents, if I've messed up your latch, if I've broken the your latch. If you've broken the latch. If I've broken the latch, I apologize. I am so sorry. Yeah.

But, Zach, that was pretty loud just now. I'm sorry. Well, we are back, everybody. And let's talk about SeaWorld, guys, because. I remember being pissed that I didn't get to go to SeaWorld, man. I remember being so upset about that. Now, I used to love SeaWorld as a child because I had seen this documentary, Blackfish. Well, it ruined SeaWorld for everybody.

It ruined SeaWorld for everybody. I'm surprised SeaWorld can still pay the rent, to be honest, after Blackfish. That felt like that was going to sort of end SeaWorld. I don't see how you see Blackfish and then go to SeaWorld ever again. Well, dude, I mean, come man look at the look at the country you're a you're a democrat and you didn't think that america would vote for donald trump and they voted for donald trump you know what i mean this is just how it is but it's not just um maga people going to sea world i mean they're they're still they're still up and running there's a there's a lot enough people that saw blackfish and were like nah i'm

fine with it. Yeah, you're exactly right. That's exactly right. I think you're right. I think enough people saw Blackfish, were in San Diego or Florida, and was like, what the hell do I do with my three little kids today? Eh, fuck it. I'm going to SeaWorld. Legoland.

Legoland. Well, no, but you know what I mean? It's the way of the world for every, for every issue that you have with something, there are just as many, there's somebody else who has the exact opposite issue, man. It's just. Okay. Well, I'll only speak for me in saying the following.

When I was a kid, I loved SeaWorld. I thought it was so exciting and I didn't love roller coasters and shit when I was a kid. So a theme park that didn't involve you going on roller coasters and shit when i was a kid so a theme park that didn't involve you um going on roller coasters for me was extra cool like i also love universal studios even though that has i think might have coasters no it has a couple it has a couple of them anyway i love the i love movies and i love behind the scenes and all that and also i should say as an adult at 20 whatever i was when i went with scott and sarah down to film this stuff it was so exciting um

see i want to i want to sort of not conflate two things because some of these biologists that we, what do you call them, biologists? What do you call these people? Marine biologists. Some of these marine biologists that I met, and Scott can speak to it better than I because he was working closer with them than I was.

They were so cool, and the animals were so smart, and we got to be behind the scenes of it all, and it was really, really cool. And I don't mean to say for a second that a lot of these people who work there aren't well-intentioned. But when I saw Blackfish, the documentary, it really, really, really, it just goes to the power of a documentary and what it can do to your brain because it made me go, I can't, these animals are too smart and too large to be used as show ponies.

It's just not, it's not ethically right. Well, it's not just, it's. Well, it's not just whales, though. It's every animal in captivity, if you're looking at it that way, man. No animal is meant to be put in a zoo. Well, the thing that distinguished it for me was how intelligent these killer whales were. You eat octopus sushi? I don't eat octopus sushi. Have you ever eaten octopus sushi? I don't eat octopus sushi. Have you ever eaten octopus sushi?

I've tried octopus. Not sushi. I've had it cooked. Did you know an octopus is so smart that it could take the top off of a plastic bottle? I'm sure. And go inside. And go inside and take the top and turn it back? I don't know if they can do that. They can turn the top back? I'm just. And go inside. And go inside and take the top and turn it back? I don't know if they can do that.

They can turn the top back? I'm just saying, dude. I'm just saying. Why would you do that? I'm just saying they're really smart, dude. No, I know. I know. I know.

And listen, it's one of the reasons I stopped eating meat. And I'm not here to preach to everybody and say, obviously, do whatever the fuck you want. But I'm just saying, for me, and Scott, I want to hear what you think, because you were there with me, too. Did you and you saw the documentary? I mean, it would be just I would be remiss to talk about this episode and not say, like, I have a totally different view of SeaWorld these days. No, of course. Of course. I think we all do. I think, look, if you would have asked us when we were there, it didn't. We all grew up with SeaWorld.

We grew up with zoos and it was it was not so much. We looked at it from a different angle, right? It was educational for us to see to be around these animals and these creatures. And they were doing things and you could see them and touch them and be around them. And it was nature, right? It was nature. We got to be with nature and it was a good thing. And then this other angle came out, a more important angle, which was, hey, yeah, it's nature, but it's really fucking cruel.

And look at what's happened. Look at the fin on the dorsal fin on the orca. and cruel and look at what's happened look at the the fin on the dorsal fin on the orca it's supposed to be standing straight up and all these shamoos are bending over because they're so sad and they're captive and and they're eating their trainers you know they're not happy about it um obviously we did not look i think there are a bunch of issues that that once things get reflected in a different light you are able to say like, oh, wow, that's not great. Or I now see that that's not great. However, at the time we shot this, we didn't have that perspective.

No, we didn't. We did not. But also it kind of changed my perspective on zoos as well. Now, I know the other side of this debate is, well, Zach, it educates people and children on animals and their habitats and helps educate people on animal preservation and all that. And, yeah, but I mean, I don't know. I mean, please, I'm no expert. I'm just saying for me, blackfish was strong enough to make me feel icky even when I'm at a zoo with like my nieces. You're not wrong, but a lot of these places, these zoos or marine sea world-like

places have done some really good things, right? They've saved some animals from extinction. They take animals that have basically fallen off the face of the earth and they breed them back into populations that are viable in the wild that is an amazing thing um is it the right way were they supposed to go extinct who the fuck knows um but i think the the we now have the ability to look at it from a different perspective and make a decision based on that yeah well all i'm saying is watch blackfish if you haven't, and then you can make your own decision because we're not your parents. Do whatever you want,

but watch Blackfish and at least be educated on that point of view. You want to hear something crazy? I had no idea how this journey song went until I met my wife. So even when we met, even when we did this show, and if you listen to how I say, just a small town girl, I don't even say it in the right cadence. And I don't even say it comfortably. Like when I'm saying it, you could tell that I'm having a hard time saying it because I had no idea what the song was.

You'd never heard the song? I'm sure I had heard it, but I wasn't a Journey fan until, I mean, I'd have to get my wife up here to tell the story to see if it's all right to tell the story. But I didn't know the Journey song until she told me the story of the Stabbing Cabin. Oh, my God. Will you ask her if she can tell the Stabbing Cabin story? The audience will love that. I'll be right back. All right.

This is worth it. Trust me. This is worth it. The Stabbing Cabin. Oh, my God. I can't believe if she's going to allow the stabbing cabin, but it is a wonderful tale. I can't wait. And I'm kind of excited to look at Donald's clothes that he's got.

Yeah. I would wear that. I wouldn't wear that. I would wear that. Look at that. Interesting hanger choices. Scott, I miss you already, and you've just moved. Thanks, man.

I miss you, too. Come see me. Come visit me when you're just moved. Thanks, man. I miss you, too. Come see me. Come visit me when you're in your place in New York. I will. Once COVID settles down, I'm going to go be in Manhattan in my place, and then you can come into the city, and we can share a cocktail. Or you can come out here and have a nice home-cooked meal and be around some family, and we can just watch TV together and not talk.

Yeah, in your big-ass screening room. That's what guys do, right? Oh, here she is. This is about yet. Hi. But just explain to her what I was saying to you. Okay. Well, I don't want to be the one to ask you to do this.

It's not my place. So Donald said that you introduced him to the song Don't Stop Believin'. And he wanted you to tell. Horrible. You don't have to tell. Horrible. You don't have to tell the story, Casey. But he said, I didn't know the song. Casey's the one who introduced me. And she has a funny story about it.

And it involves. But you don't have to tell it. You can say cut. No, I mean, I'm old now. It's not going to matter anyway. You're not old. You're beautiful and perfect. Thank you.

I lost my virginity to that song. Right. In the back of my high school boyfriend's Jeep. Okay. And real romantic. And I had it all played. Your Jeeps are small. Well, there's this roll bar.

Copy that. Copy that. Casey, I just want the audience to know I want the audience to know that you held your hands up just so I'm clear on the story were you holding the roll bar you know I don't want to go into too much okay where were you supposed to be tell them where you were supposed to be

what do you mean the cabin oh I was at the stabbing cabin Where were you supposed to be? Yeah, tell them where you were supposed to be. What do you mean? The cabin. Oh, I was at the stabbing cabin. That's the thing. What was that? They called it the stabbing cabin. Yes. Where women in her town went to lose their virginity.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah, it's this cabin in the middle of the woods or pasture. And it's where all my friends and their boyfriends or whoever would go to have sex and we pull up there and i tell my boyfriend i'm like i'm not going in that place so that's why we had to do it in the jeep but wow now wait casey yeah we're forgetting the romance so the romance was supposed to be faithfully by journey. And it was obviously, we're young. Not going to go there, how young I was.

But it ended up taking a little longer than we thought. And by the time we were actually doing it, it was on. Just a small, small girl. Believe in. Hold on to that feeling. Oh, my God. Hold on to that feeling. You know what?

For those of you who don't know me, I'm from a small town, like 3,000 people. You don't have to explain it. All we did was drink, fuck, or fight. That was it. Okay. It was normal. I had some new merch coming at you. And then I married her.

And then he snagged me quick. Well, Casey, thank you so much for sharing that story about the Stabbing Cabin. And thank you for introducing Donald to the song Don't Stop Believing. Bye, guys. Thunderousieving. Bye, guys. Thunderous applause. Bye, Casey. Amazing. I love that as she got up, she goes,

ugh. She goes, I hope my, she said, I hope my parents don't hear that. Yeah. I hate to tell you this, babe, but your parents don't listen to the podcast. Yeah, they don't. But Casey grew up near Waco.

Right outside of Waco. When I saw Waco, I was like, oh, that seems like a really small town. And she's like, well, I grew up in a suburb of Waco, like the middle of nowhere. Waco's not a small town anymore, man. It's booming now, thanks to... Chip and Joanna Gaines. David Koresh. Well, no.

Scott had it right. The cats from that flipping that, that, that. Fixing up your house. Yeah, fixer-upper Chip and Joanna Gaines. Yeah. Why? What did they do? They're from there?

They moved back to Waco. Yeah, they have a show on HGTV and now their own channel and magazine. And they bought the silos and there's. Oh, my God. Merchandise, a whole thing. Oh, all right.

Well, very talented. I, I, I won't be going there. Um, now Scott, let's,

uh, now that we've done our SeaWorld speech, tell us how you did that shot in the air with you waving. Cause it's amazing. I assume it's green screen, right? But it's perfect. Yeah.

Thank you. I was, I was not happy with my form when I watched it again today. I was a little too bent at the, but I, I was not happy with my form when I watched it again today. I was a little too bent at the Russian great. But I was, in my defense to myself, and thank you for saying it was perfect, I was wearing a harness. We were in the parking lot at the hospital. Well, listen, Scrubs is not known for its great green screen in 2002.

In fact, the shot of Sarah on the train is so bad, the green screen. Rough. What was with the angle on that, too? Oh, it was so bad. And that train compartment was built into the parking lot of Scrubs, I remember. And we had, you know, green screen has come a long way, by the way, in 18 years, but man, was it bad. And, but your shot of you waving in slow motion was so perfect that part of me was like, wait a minute, there's no way they did that practically. Like there's no way Scott rode the orca. Can I tell you, with the exception of that shot,

everything else was done practically. Really? I mean, riding the dolphin. You had a sea lion yell in your face, dude. How did you not react to that shit, dude? It was the scariest, worst smelling, foulest, biggest animal I've ever been that close to. And you think like, oh, it's a sea lion. They're huge and terrifying.

That was a big animal next to you, dude. I mean, it's a thousand pound beast with teeth, with big fucking teeth. One of the things, when we talk about you, Scott, on the show, we often talk about what an amazing straight man you are and how you never broke and there i was watching you have a have a sea lion scream in your face and i would be cracking up and you were just totally dead it was i think i think watching it you think like oh that must be funny it was terrifying it was the end of the day it was the last shot we needed to get uh you know the train there was no real explanation the trainer was like okay so you're gonna say your line you turn your head here the the thing knows the thing that's because it's a sea world uh knows

to turn your head when you turn your head uh it and as many times as i turn my head, it'll look at me. And then the last time, it'll stick its tongue out. It reeked like horrible old fish and a burp. It was just not great. But it's very funny. I mean, it's very funny. Did you know that the thing was going to yell at you? Yes. Oh, you did know. Yes, and that was loud.

But I got to say, like, of all the things i show my kids they've seen that a hundred times yeah they love that that's a pretty amazing piece of tape for you to have for your memories nobody has it's great and i i loved it i loved that whole this whole sea world storyline and adventure and the fact we actually got to go down there and um you know scrubs is a show we shot in uh burba where were we sherman oaks but the fact that we got to go down there and, you know, Scrubs is a show we shot in Burba. Where were we? Sherman Oaks. But the fact that we got to be on location.

Valley Village. The fact we got to be on location in San Diego for two nights or however long it was, was exciting. And we were all down there together. It was great. By the way, Scrubs is supposed to be anywhere USA. It's never mentioned where Scrubs takes place, but this does sort of hone in on where it is because we know that Scrubs takes place in a drivable distance from a sea world. I feel like as time went on, Scrubs became California. Well, I don't know.

We always were painting out palm trees. I think Bill wanted it to be – Bill wanted it to feel anywhere USA like the Simpsons. It's just you don't know where it is. But this does place it. How about Laverne saying, I need to find a dentist so I don't look like Larry Holmes. Oh, my God. I never saw she look like Larry Holmes until she said that.

Until she said that. I see it. And then at the end, when he throws her the tooth, and she goes, this is a chiclet. A funny bit of trivia on Scrubs Wiki about Laverne, it says that when JD tries to comfort Laverne, she calls him a jackass. But in the Netflix subtitle, it says cracker.

Wow. Okay. jackass but in the netflix subtitle it says cracker wow okay i don't i don't i don't know if that's helped or hurt us scrubs wiki well scrubs is no longer on netflix so we can't check it but i guess if you are on any if you're on hulu you might want to uh go look at that and see if someone messed up the subtitle and had Nurse Roberts call JD a cracker. It was just somebody who hated Zach Braff. He was like, that motherfucking Zach Braff looked like a cracker-ass cracker. You know what I'm going to do? This is what I'm going to do. This is what I'm going to do.

I'm going to finally get it. She called him a jackass? She called him a jackass? No, it ain't going to be jackass. Cracker-ass cracker. So you're saying the Netflix subtitle guy Had it out for me Yeah, probably a brother Didn't like you

Impossible There's no such thing How about when Sarah says to Cox Does this shade of red She's putting on lipstick Does this shade of red make me look like a clown He said no, it makes you look like a prostitute Who catersers to clowns.

Exclusively to clowns. I love that. That's funny shit. I love that. I have a question. Do they talk about how you wound up at SeaWorld at all? Me or Scott?

Scott, there's no conversation. it's just your job was out of the blue you you're at sea world now no i think in an earlier episode uh we talked about me i think i mentioned i work at sea world okay all right i work i'm a marine biologist or something like that i think they were trying to always have things that made him so much more cool than than jd and i i think the idea was that i'm trying to one-up him but the dude's riding an orca and jumping in front of in front of a 5,000 people and he just looks like such a badass and I'm like your line delivery on that when you're walking when you before you see me when you first come in like he probably I don't know scoops up the seal poop or something and then

you see me and you're like you say what do you say lame or something i thought it was fantastic yeah thank you yeah because he's so humiliated that i mean this scott scott's flying through the air after being hurled by an orca and he's just waving to elliot in slow motion so funny well what about in the beginning we skipped this part where where you sip the coffee sean sips the coffee and has a lisp after because the coffee's so hot yeah that shit was fucking hilarious man like that was a great way to introduce you guys back together you know i i say on this podcast all the time that you guys are great to get like you two are great are perfect for each other sean and elliot are perfect for each other but this was a great way to reintroduce that, you know what I mean? You two are such, you know,

klutzes, you know what I mean? Yep, just weirdos. I agree. And it was such an endearing way to introduce the two of you back together. So much so that JD couldn't even be mad at it. I mean, he's mad when he sees you flying through the air and everything like that. But he can't be mad at it because he's so entertained

by the fact that Elliot found someone that is her match. And then she gets her backpack trapped in his car. In his car and all that stuff, yeah. Why is Elliot taking the train? She has a car with the two mismatching doors. Yeah, she does.

Where was she going on the train? She was going anywhere! She was going anywhere, guys. She took the small town girl with that train. Going anywhere, guys. She took a midnight train. Going anywhere, guys. Oh, God. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I was like, we never did a train.

We did some bus stuff. We never did a train ever again on Scrubs. But because of the song, someone had to build a train set. There you go. Yeah. Convenient. I wonder if Mike Spiller pitched that. You know what?

She should go to SeaWorld, and she should be on the train, and I'll cut it to where it goes. She took the midnight train going anywhere. I wonder if he thought that would be. I don't know. I don't know. But this is a Spiller-directed episode, and he's a terrifically talented fellow. Written by Tim Hobart. Maybe Tim Hobart had this idea.

I don't know. But that's your right. Someone, they built a big set for this just because of the lyric. Also in this episode, this is the Turk and JD episode. Turk and JD? And Shelly. Who's Shelly? Shelly's the guy that played the bartender who went away to jail.

Oh my God, who did? I wanted to talk to you guys about that. Didn't he try to kill his girlfriend? His wife. 12 years to life. Wait, what? He's out. Yeah yeah he's out now he's out now yeah man wait i missed something dan we're gonna need we're gonna need a sound

effect here dun dun dun can you please did 40 year old virgin and that guy was in 40 year old virgin with him when the news came out however many years ago she was like holy shit i was he was the only guy who talked to me like he, he was the nicest guy, and he just killed his girlfriend, his wife. He didn't kill her. He tried to. My daughter and his daughter were best friends in elementary school. So, like, in first, second grade, they were best friends. And he used to take care of my daughter, Kaya, back in the day.

Like, they used to hang out with each other and her, her dad would be the person that would take them to get ice cream and stuff like that. Shelly. And so when he came to do the show, I was like, Oh shit, man,

how's it going? I had no idea that later on he would know that that would happen. I ran into him recently, actually. No. Yeah, I did. Wait,

how many years did he do in jail? He did quite a few. Cause it was like a few months ago that i ran into him and he had just gotten out and he was staying at a halfway house and he was like you know i had to get off i i'm sober now i am off of drugs and everything like that his i don't know where his wife his ex-wife is and where his daughter is i don't think they're even in america anymore but he's back you know he's out i don't know if this is something we should probably i think we could talk about it why not it's a if

it's fact joelle will double check that it is indeed fact um but he's definitely he's definitely out he's staying at a halfway house and you know i would never guess that the guy who has the turk and jd joke had that happened to him well, he represented himself in the trial and everything. Like, you know. He represented him. He was his own lawyer? I believe so, yeah. Joel, we need you to fact check away on that, please. Because that sounds intriguing.

Well, yeah, I mean, if you see some of the things, man, like, because this was a big Hollywood story and stuff like that. You know, there's video of him trying to explain how his wife got stabbed all of those times. You know what I mean? Oh, my God.

Jesus. Oh, my God. I don't know that this is getting darker and darker as we go on. Hey, Joelle, how accurate am I? It's going to take a minute to research. Give me some time. All right. Well, let's get back to the show.

Mental Five. Oh, I wanted to back to the show. Mental Five. The very first. Oh, I wanted to say this is the first Mental Five, I believe. Todd does a mental high five. Donald? I didn't. I missed that. I don't know how I missed that.

He goes. He's at the bar. I wanted some private time. Oh, that's right. With us. And we're supposed to be here. No, no. I can't.

I'm sorry. I would never, ever diss the Scrubs writers because they're geniuses. But this makes no sense. I finally want to go have a private talk with you at a bar because you're really getting married. And you're like, no, no. I can't handle intimacy. It makes no sense. No, it doesn't make any sense.

It makes zero sense. All right. Well, maybe Bill won't listen to this one. Well, no. He'll listen to it. And I'm sure he'll have something to say about it. Yeah. It'll be in the next Interrupting Bill. Yeah, Interrupting Bill.

Yeah, so, no, you invite Todd because you don't want to have an intimate conversation with your best friend, and Todd tries to high-five me, and I say no, and he goes, mental five. And then he goes over and sexually harasses a woman and gets slapped. Right. And then says, holy cow, that's the quickest

I've been slapped in the face? Something like that. Something like that? No, no. And then he comes over and says, do you think gay dudes get turned on

by their own weeners? By their own penises? Yeah. It's so stupid, but it's funny. Yeah, it is funny, but... I'm guessing no. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. No. No is the answer. The answer is no. You don't know. Why? You don't know.

You don't know. I am making a fairly logical guess. You don't know that a gay guy might not look down at his penis and be like, damn, that is a nice cock. If you have a foot fetish, you don't look at your own foot and rub one out. How do you know this? How do you know this? How do you know this how do you know this you're right also you're right your junk is not orientation exclusive you know you can you can be straight and be like you know what i got a great penis well that's different than getting

turned off by it is going and now my penis is getting i'm getting hard from looking at my own penis. It's like Inception. All right. Joelle has some information here. So she said three years after appearing in the hit film, 40-year-old virgin Malil 53 stabbed his then-girlfriend 23 times, an attack that he originally claimed was a mistaking identity on his part. So he's saying he didn't even know it was her when he was stabbing her. During his trial, the actor testified he thought he was stabbing someone else

in self-defense on a night that he couldn't remember clearly. It wasn't until hearing Bebe shout, call 911, that Malil said he realized she was the one he was stabbing. So he stabbed her up and then said, then she's like, somebody call 911. And then he was like, oh shit, I stabbed my girlfriend.

Well, listen, I don't want to get into all that, but I do have to say that is a crazy story. And it's so bizarre that that guy is the one who came up with, well, not came up with, but says that he thinks your name is Turk and JD. Look, it's Turk and JD. And JD. And JD, yeah.

Kelso's mom is in a nursing home in a bunk bed. He says he wants someone to drop off someone in a nursing home because he doesn't want to run into his mother because she's going to complain that she's spending her golden years in a bunk bed. He's an evil fuck that Kelso. Why is Carla walking around with a jar of pee? What is the point of that? She's so obsessed with the jar of urine. Why is it on her lunch tray?

Yeah. Right. Why did she put it on her lunch tray? Right. And she's walking around. Well, she put it on the lunch tray so you could get the bit with the apple juice bit. That's a long way to go for an apple juice bit. It's a long way to go, but it was good.

It was a good bit. I thought it was funny. But what was the ultimate resolve with the apple? Like the janitor found the thing, and then what? That was it. That was it. There was no payoff. She just, what was that about?

What was her arc? She wanted to find the owner of the pea. Why? I don't know it was about it was a remember she had that that moment in the middle of the show where she said okay i'm done with this i'm done with this and then she put it down and then she went back to get it so there's obviously a there's something they were trying to do with resolve. Are they saying that she's such a thorough nurse, she's so dedicated to the ethics of being a nurse that she wasn't going to let one thing through the cracks? Is that it? I don't know.

I don't know. I'm trying to find a cohesive theme throughout the whole show that each of the characters sort of deals with, right? Like, what is it you talk about in the montage? Like, I don't know. There's got to be a reason. There has to be a good reason that Bill would know. Should we ask Bill?

I don't know that she's got to be a reason. There has to be a good reason that Bill would know. Should we ask Bill? I don't know that she's in the last montage part. I think it's you and Elliot. I think it's Zach. I think it's me and Zach talking. I don't know if she is either, but I think possibly the theme has to... She plays into that overall theme. Let's go to Uncle Bill. I think possibly sort of the theme has to – like she plays into that overall theme. All right. Let's go to Uncle Bill.

I think it's time. Okay. Bill, why is Judy so obsessed with finding whose urine this is? Why? She goes on an episode-long hunt. The janitor eventually helps her. And then we don't really know what happened. Now, Bill, far be it from us to question your authority and mastery.

But we just don't understand Judy's arc. Also, why is Turk a homophobic? Yeah. Also, Bill, P.S. A homophobic. Yeah, a homophobic. Why is Turk homophobic, Bill, P.S. A-homophobic. Yeah, A-homophobic. Why is Turk homophobic, Bill? He doesn't seem to show any signs of being homophobic until episode 302.

Hey, fellas, I miss you guys. I'll gladly answer these questions, but I do want to see some 5678 merch for sale from our podcast, like 5678 shirts or 5678 hats or 5678 boxers or socks. Or how fun would it be if I just did this for an hour and listed different? The 5678 oven mitt would be cool, or a scarf. I'd buy a scarf. Why does Carla carry pee around all episode?

If we had written a song called Everything Comes Down to Pee, you guys would know the answer. But we wrote Everything Comes Down to Poo. The answer is she's a conscientious nurse. She sees it at the beginning with no label on it. And sometimes everything does come down to pee, and she knows. We always like to show her as a kick-ass nurse.

She knows that that could be out there testing for some serious ailment and have a real serious medical consequences if it doesn't get tested or looked at. And so she can't let it go. Like a 5678 dachshund sweater or a dog sweater, like one of those things you put on a wiener dog, that'd be funny. It's very specific, but I'd buy one. Then I'd get a wiener dog. Second answer, why is Turk homophobic? He's not.

You know, that character, we like to think that he's very open-minded. But the intent of that story, I'm sure, was that often, especially when you look at young alpha male surgeon types, or any young alpha male type who was a fraternity guy and, you know, who probably was not around a lot of people of different sexuality or was not aware that he was at the time, would imagine themselves being much more sensitive and secure when, as doctors often are, are confronted with a patient who happens to be different from them

or different from what their comfort zone is. I don't think our intent was to play this as huge jokes as much as it was to show and highlight Turk's insecurities about himself. And do I think we executed it well? No. I think that we kind of glossed over it. It is one of those things I wish I could go back in time and do a scene in which he's questioning why is he like that.

But I think it was a product of I grew up, as did a lot of the writers around a questioning why is he like that but you know i think it was a product of i grew up as did a lot of the writers around a lot of people like that so hope that's a decent answer but it is one of those episodes and storylines that um i wish i could get in a time machine and improve room it peace out thank you bill all right should we go to uh we have a great need a break joel or what yeah we should go to, we need a break, Jewel, or what? Yeah, we should go to break and then we have the guest. All right, very exciting. We'll be right back with the legendary Scott Foley.

From iHeart Podcasts. It's like the police knew who he was before they got here. A story about money, power, and corruption. The medical school dean at USC was leading a secret double life. Is she breathing right now? Yes, she's absolutely breathing. I'm a doctor, actually. There's no way that that guy's a doctor.

I'm Paul Pringle, and I'm an investigative reporter for the LA Times. This is the story of an investigation that starts in a hotel room in Pasadena, California, and reaches all the way to the top of two of the most powerful institutions in the city of Los Angeles. When people fall in line, they fall in line. Looking back, I realized, oh, everyone knew. This is Fallen Angels, a story of California corruption. We're always going to have predators. It's the good people who stand by and do nothing that allow them to flourish.

Listen to Fallen Angels, a story of California corruption, starting March 28th on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello! Hey, and we're back! And we're back with... What is your name? It's Katie Rezia! Katie Rezia is on the line with us and she is going to kick it with us! Wait, what?

Welcome, Katie. A little bit of introduction for Katie before we get started. A while ago, you guys were really into the song, I Ran Down the Ramp, the viral sensation. And Katie made a video where you guys were with JD running down the ramp.

That was your video. Oh! Good job. And she also has a Scrubs tattoo. Oh my goodness. Let me see. Let's see the tattoo. You want to see it?

Okay. I mean, if it's shareable, I don't know. It is. It is. It's on my rib cage, but I will keep it PG. I promise. Let me just see. I got to flip this.

Okay. Okay. Nothing's going to be shown. I promise. Katie is just see. I've got to flip this. Nothing's going to be shown, I promise. Katie is not flashing us, viewers. Oh, wow. It says, I'm no Superman in the Scrubs font. That is so cool.

That is really cool. I was hoping for my face, but hey. Katie, you are the perfect guest because not only does it seem like you are a big Scrubs fan, I am also seeing lots of Star Wars memorabilia happening in your room so Donald will be able to dial into that Yeah, huge Star Wars fan

Are you a Mandalorian fan? Uh, yeah Who isn't a Mandalorian fan? I know, right? You gotta be some weirdo from like Gerirido to not be a forgetting Mandalorian. Weirdo from Gerirido. Sure, yeah. Oh, no, no, no.

Please. No, please. Dun, dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. Thank you. Okay. No, no, no. Let him go.

Let him go. Let him go. He just made the baby unlatch again. Katie, tell us where you're calling from. I am from Windsor, Ontario, Canada, which is a small little city right across from Detroit, Michigan. Right. It's near Vancouver, right? Oh, God, no. No.

Oh, you're from Windsor. You're from Windsor. Not Whistler. Windsor. Yeah, you're from Windsor. Wow're from Windsor. Not Whistler, Windsor. Yeah, you're from Windsor. Wow. Is it named after Windsor where the Windsor Castle is? I think so.

We have a lot of, like, Southwestern Ontario has a lot of European-inspired names. Like, we have a Paris, a London, Windsor, like, all kinds of... So if you can't go to Europe, just come to Southwestern Ontario. It's not even close to the same thing. Are the towns just

named that or is there any sort of uh monument castle-y kind of things no i think they're just named that to be honest nice would you say that you live in the middle of bumblefuck it's not quite bumblefuck but it has been called the butthole of canada just because if you look at the map the very very very bottom that's. Like we are the southernmost city. We're actually, we're a lot more south than like a lot of the northern United States. I never understood that analogy where you call something that's so far south the butthole. Because the butthole isn't the furthest thing south on your body. It is if you're sitting or if you're in the fetal position.

Even if you're sitting, your feet are still the furthest thing south, Zach. If you're in yoga, if that yoga position is a happy baby? Well, then yes. Then yes. Katie, now you are a good editor because you made a very funny video about she cut. Katie, by the way, how do people find that video if they want to watch it? It's on my Twitter, at Katie Rizzia. It's pinned right to the top. And Katie's last name is spelled R-I-Z-E-A. She cut, Donald and I love the ramp song,

and she cut images of scrubs, particularly us running down the hospital exterior ramp to the song masterfully. Are you, my question is, are you interested? You seem like a young person. Are you studying filmmaking or are you just naturally good at that kind of stuff? I didn't, I never really studied it. I just, I always kind of liked the creative aspect of things, making photos. Like I do kind of photography on the side. I've always loved video editing. I never really pursued a career in it, but I do it on the side for fun, like all the time. Well, you're good at it because you certainly made us laugh and uh and we appreciate what do what do you want to do what are you pursuing uh my career i suppose is i'm an office administrator

um so i work at a local college i run the health insurance around the food bank i run i'm pretty much like the first face that they see when they walk in and i'm like hello and i just I just do my best to solve pretty much any problem they have, whether it has anything to do with me or not. As you should. That's what's up. Good. I love you. You do? I love you too, Scott Follett.

I love people who do what you do and solve problems. Man, the world needs more of you, Katie. He prefers to be called television. He prefers to be called television Scott F prefers to be called television Scott Foley. Yeah, please call him TV Scott Foley, Katie. Listen, I have a really quick question.

Scott Foley, what do you, like, what kind of water? TV Scott Foley. Oh, sorry, TV Scott Foley. Sorry, sorry. Yes, ma'am. What kind of water do you drink

where you don't age in 20 years? Oh, God. This is what we just talked about, Katie. Look at the man! I know. Why won't people write that on my Instagram? See this gray here? The amount of gray happening.

It's a gray beard, dude. It's not a gray face. By the way, Katie, you weren't on the beginning of this, so I have to tell you that this podcast began with Donald and I posted this video today, and they said about Donald, wow, he doesn't age. Wow, Zach, look at his wrinkles.

And now you're talking about Mr. Foley saying what kind of water does he drink because he doesn't age. The man's older than me, but looks like he could be my son. That's very kind of you, Katie and Zach. Very kind of both of you. The kind of water doesn't matter, Katie.

Just drink a lot of it. Yeah. And do you use lotion, Scott Scott do you use facial lotion this is embarrassing so last night I'm putting on some eye cream before I get to bed and I say to my wife hey do a lot of dudes do this and without hesitation she was like no other dude does this

no they do you gotta moisturize that's what I'm told by the way my girlfriend she's always putting lotion on me that must feel good that must feel definitely doesn't want you looking it feels nice though i kind of don't do lotion because i know she's going to come around after she does hers with the excess oh that must be great i get the excess do you get the smack in the face too like the tight the light yeah because you know when you put facial lotion on and then you have extra right now some people like me i just put it on I just put it on my back for some reason. The small of your back, right.

The small of your back. That's my instinct. But my girlfriend comes around with her extra and gives it to my face. It's nice. Katie, let's get out of here. This is getting weird. Katie, do you have a question for TV Scott Foley or Clueless is Donald Faison or I? Why do I got to be Clueless is Donald Faison? I, wait, why I gotta be clueless as Donald.

I don't know your most famous film. I just went with it. Why not? Remember the Titans. Yeah. Why not? Remember the Titans. Okay.

Do you have a question for remember the Titans is Donald. No, no, no, no. The guy, uh, Denzel Washington's co-star of remember,

do you have a question for Denzel Washington's best friend and co-star? I like that. I like that. I like that. Yeah. I mean, like, obviously several questions. Before I... I have to first of all say thank you to Cole Lattisaw on Twitter because he's the one who tagged me in Joelle's tweet looking for me for my tattoo. So if he didn't tag me, I might

have never seen it and I probably wouldn't be here. Right on. Glad you're here. Thank you. Thank you. So first question, kind of lighthearted. This has been my question since the very beginning but um it's about so it's actually also kind of timely because you guys just watched this episode not too long ago so if you guys woke up one morning and you see an article from e-news that says bill lawrence has just released never before seen footage of nurse roberts's above ground pool party what do you guys believe in your heart is going to be on that footage oh that's a great question i think they're xing their faces off i

think nurse roberts i think nurse roberts has some md, and everyone is just fucking grinding on each other. Oh, my gosh. That is an epic above-ground pool party. That is an epic above-ground pool party. I think that only happens on the in-ground pool parties, not the above-ground pool parties. I don't know, but that's a great question because we know this fact. They were always off the hook. They were crazy.

Shit went down at these things. Right. People fights people got choked out yeah you know what i mean people hooked up we know people hooked up people hooked up yeah i love yeah i don't know i don't what do i think would be in oh wow i'm sure wow i'll tell you what that's a great question if you know we got down on them i get tagged in a lot of fan art on instagram and if you're an artist and you want to do a doodle uh do what you imagine is happening at nurse roberts's above ground pool party oh my god this is gonna be so gnarly people are gonna put the gnarliest things you've ever seen in your life go crazy and then we'll we'll put some on our stories although joelle has to freaking cypher through all of this man no no no no they're gonna they're gonna no they're gonna tag us on instagram so they'll show up in our feed oh okay and then

yeah and then we'll you know don't don't don't have the pleasure yeah don't well actually i'm not gonna give you any restrictions go nuts what is happening at roberts yo instagram will give you restrictions let's put it down instagram will give you restrictions well yeah i put it down. Instagram will give you restrictions. Well, yeah. I mean, don't have like cocks flying and everything. If they are, have them be hidden behind something. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What?

Don't have – I'm saying like be crazy, but if someone goes and draws like penises flying, we'll have to like blur it probably. You can't put that in our story. Oh. Or not. Or am I being too PG? No, not at all. No, you're I being too PG? No, not at all.

No, you're not being too PG. You're not being PG at all. You are not being PG at all, dude. Well, someone went and put Donald, me, and Johnny C's heads on a gay porn still. And it's hilarious. I sent it to Donald and Johnny C. Word. Why didn't you send it to Donald and Johnny C. Word. Why didn't you send it to everybody else?

It's not for public consumption. Because it's just for us, Scott. It's just for us. But Johnny wrote something so back like, oh, my God. Johnny wrote back something like, oh, my God, Zachy, what have you done? And I started to think that he thought that I made it. Like I was sitting at home on my photoshop all right Katie do you have another question uh yeah and I hope it's okay Joel I just thought of

this earlier and it's not the one we talked about okay perfect okay so I this one is a little bit more I guess serious not really serious um most shows and like a lot of tv shows most often comedies they tend to like run beyond their course so to speak and scrubs up eight seasons was like perfect it didn't go too long so i'm just wondering what the feel on set was for you guys like how did you find out that season eight was ending like how did they tell you and like how did you find out that season eight was ending like how did they tell you and like how did that feel filming the last of it knowing this is it like this is the end well you know the crazy thing is we never really other than season two and three we never really

knew what our fate was at the end of every season it wasn't until around you know right before upfronts where they announced all of the new fall shows that we found out we were coming back for most of the uh time while we were making scrubs and if you recall season eight isn't i i don't know if you know this but season eight isn't even on the original network that scrubs was on so every year felt like well this could be it i hope i get to see you next fall you know what i it i hope i get to see you next fall you know what i mean or i go get to see you in the summer when it was announced that it was finally over that it season eight was going to be the last episode of scrubs uh as we knew it

that was kind of it was kind of like one of those things where you i didn't believe it until you know what i mean until it was over and then there was this long pause in between and then we went and did the the interns uh show but for the longest time i honestly believed that yeah sure this is the last season but we'll be back next season you know what i mean and so i you know a lot of people talk about how uh emotional they were when we were making the series finale. I don't know if you remember, Zach. I wasn't necessarily that emotional. Everybody else was really emotional.

I still thought we'd be back next season, believe it or not. I was so wrong. But, you know, so in doing it, I wasn't as emotional as everybody else was. Sarah was very emotional. I remember that. I was very emotional, but I feel like I wanted a new chapter of my life. I was so blessed. I mean, I was so clear how lucky we were. I was so blessed for the opportunity and for how the show changed our life and for the incredible support we have

from this most loyal and amazing fan base. But I think I and Bill would probably say it was time to like try something new. And Scott can speak to this because he's done very long runs on shows. Yeah. And you kind of go like, this is amazing. And I'm so clear how lucky I am. But I do want my life to have other chapters. For me, I wanted to have a family.

And it's very hard. It was hard for me to maintain relationships and build not just romantic relationships, but friendships because of the time I spent in the abandoned hospital. And I wanted to sort of take that to a new chapter. I wanted to make more movies and do more filmmaking. So I felt so grateful and I was so sad, but at the time I felt like I wanted something new to start. Scott, you must have felt that on your shows. I was going to ask you, Scott, because Scandal

ran a really long time. Felicity had a really nice run. The Unit had a really nice run. Like all of these shows that you were on, you've experienced ending for a lot of shows. All of them gone out on first the terms that you guys wanted it to go out on and second how were you feeling when you got to that that point i don't think any of them have gone out on the terms that you want them to go out on you know

television is the kind of business that television is is is you want it to run forever, right? Paycheck, good group of people. Um, and you know, I think, I think everyone from the actors to the writers, to the crew is like, Oh wow, that's, I gotta go look for a job now, which is never fun. Um, but I think there is a, a certain feeling when you've done a hundred plus episodes of a TV show that runs through everybody's head. And I think everybody has some similar feeling, which is, this has been great. If this keeps going, is this all I'm going to do? And that's not necessarily a bad thing, but I want to try something else. But there is also like, I am not done with it yet. You know,

like, because ultimately it's not us with the exception of scandal. Shonda Rhimes was the, the person who said the show is done. I don't want to write anymore. The show has had a great arc and the characters I've told the stories I want to tell. And that's it. I think had the network had their way,

the show would have gone on for another 10 years because it was doing so well. But it's always, Katie, it's always sad. And, you know, these are people that you get to know really well. And you guys can speak to this as well. You become really close. They're your family. You see them more than you do your friends. All my friends know that when I'm on a TV show, I disappear for nine months. And it's kind of who I am and what you've got to deal with. It's amazing. You're so lucky to have it happen, but you do sacrifice a bunch of things. And that's coming as a guy who doesn't have children yet,

like these guys do. I mean, Donald had to go on his last show and be in Jersey City with his family in Los Angeles and be apart from his kids for that long. And that was really, really, really hard on everybody. Except for his wife. Yeah, she was so happy I was gone. She was cranking, don't stop believing. Yo, I came back home and my wife was like, oh, no, that's not how we do that.

Like, I did one thing. She's like, no, that's not how we do things here. That one thing she's like no that's not how we do things here that is brutal yeah that is brutal it happens to me too who do you what do you think you're doing this is how we do it now right i had to go through the crash course of how to live in my own house it was amazing oh that's not how we do things now my mom is a uh is a psychologist and has done a lot of marriage counseling, and she said one of the most common things couples fight about is how to load the dishwasher. What? Is that right?

I don't have that problem. I don't have that problem. Why? Because you don't do it? No, I load the dishwasher. You're just good at it. She was just giving an example. But if you tell me how to do it.

She was giving an example of a trivial thing that couples argue about, and the dishwasher is a big one. You're not supposed to tell your – that's exactly a big one. You're not supposed to tell your... That's exactly right, Scott. You're not supposed to tell anybody how to do your spouse's... If you tell me how to do it, I'll stop doing it. Right, I'm not going to do it. But if you don't, I'm going to keep going.

Right? Oh, no, that's not how you put the trash can in the trash... The trash bag in the trash can. All right, then you do the shit, then. You got it. You know what I mean? That's what I thought. You got it.

You got it. Cut to Donald being like, yes, sweetheart. Fold it over, pinch the corners. Got it. All right, Katie, it's time for Canada's favorite segment. It's time to fix. Wait, hold on. Let's do it again.

Katie, it's time to fix your life. Sorry if the baby was latching. Katie, we really, really are transforming the world with this segment. We're transforming every little corner. Oprah doesn't have shit on us. On the planet. You know why? Because we are really helping way more than she ever did on her little show.

Well, way more. I want the audience to know that Joelle just looked away and rolled her eyes. That is not my opinion of it either, Oprah. So please don't. I love that you guys think that Oprah is listening and writing your names on a list of people to not hang out with. Listen, you never know with Oprah. You never know with Oprah. you never know what oprah both donald and joelle are like listen oprah in case you're listening that is not me talking

no listen joelle you gotta let him think he's oprah because then we might all get a car yes yes oh by the way we are going to give a special treat out today i think joelle right yes okay but we'll save that for the end um all right katie uh go ahead one of these no it's better than that all right katie go ahead with your question uh okay so i did think of something i was wracking my brain because i mean i don't want to sound like an asshole but i'm very blessed my life's pretty great right now um but i do welcome katie and on that note we have just fixed her life. That's the shortest segment we ever did.

Good work. Uh, no, I, it's a rare opportunity for you guys to fix my future life because, um, I'm getting married next year. Whoa.

Thank you. Uh, and it actually, it's in California. So you guys can all come through. We'll be there. Invite me. Invite me. As long as the booze is free, invite

me. You are all invited. You can carry me down the aisle. No, I don't want to do all that. I didn't say I wanted to. I don't want to be in the wedding. I don't want to do manual labor. Do you want to be the flower girl? Just throw the flowers? I just want to be there.

I want to be there, have a drink to be there. I want to be there, have a drink and leave. Okay. That's fine. So my question to you guys and like all, all of you would just be how, like, what would your advice be to me to just be like the best possible partner I

can be to my fiance? She is the most amazing person ever. She's my best friend. She's so beautiful and I just want to make her happy forever. Oh my God. I will say, I'm going to say one thing and one thing only. Go ahead. Be tactful.

Patience is so important. That is the most important thing you can have. My wife has the most patience out of anybody I've ever met in my life. Because if I had to deal with someone like me, I would freaking not, I'd leave me. I would leave me if I had to deal with me. And so my wife is one of the most patient people on the planet and loves me

unconditionally. And if you got that in you, there's nothing that can be done that, well, I shouldn't say that. There's very little that can be done to ruin your relationship. My wife's tolerance of my bullshit is what keeps our relationship afloat. All right. Scott Foley, you are married with children and in a successful relationship. What's your advice? Oh, man. I think patience is a good one.

I would urge you to listen to not just what they're saying, but how your fiancé is saying it and why they're saying, but how your fiance is saying it and, and why they're saying it. You know, I found, uh, through, uh, much trial and error that, um, when my wife is, uh, telling me something or angry at something or, or, or frustrated about something, uh, listening to that and, and not, it's the hardest thing for me, not trying to fix it. Um, which a lot of men try to do and you don't seem to have that problem. I don't think, um, uh, but, but just listening and, um, and not try to fix whatever the problem might be is sometimes the best way to go.

Because a lot of the times my wife doesn't want me to fix it or it's, it's not fixable. It's just a matter of being there for someone. I'm not married, but one thing I think really helps me when I'm communicating in relationships, and this goes for not just from any relationship, not just romantic relationships, is being able to admit when you're wrong. I think people automatically as human beings, we shift into defend what you did at all costs. And there's

so much power in being able to take responsibility and truly listening to the person. And it might not be what you intended, it may not have been what you thought you said, but whatever it is that upset them because of the way they experienced it, you can go, there's so much power I have found in being able to go, okay, I'm just giving you a random example. That is certainly not what I intended. And I'm very sorry that that made you feel that way. And I apologize if that's if that's how it came across. Just being able to stop and go, stop defending and stop trying to be right. And being able to say, OK, I've digested what you're saying. I certainly

didn't intend it that way or whatever it is. I'm just picking an example. And then being able to take responsibility, I think, is is a very, very powerful tool in all of your relationships. Now, Zach, I have a question for you. Are you able to do that without then going, what I meant was, and you know, like, that's a problem for me. No, I think, well, I think, you know, because I usually, I'm usually the guy like, look, I think – because I usually – I'm usually the guy like, look, I did not – wow. That did not – you took that the wrong way and I'm so sorry if it came out that way. What I meant to say was the way you fucking put that goddamn dish in the dish washer. That doesn't help.

That doesn't help. Yeah. I was about to say because what if you meant that shit when you said it? That's the thing. No, I mean – And I think a lot of times, a lot of times, you know, if your partner gets upset, you certainly didn't intend to hurt their feelings or for them to get upset. That's not a normal person's intention. Of course it happens. So what happened?

There was miscommunication or there was a sensitivity on one of the people's part. And I think we get stuck in argument loops because both people are trying to be right and if if if you can go um if you can both go like okay i hear what you're i'm dying you know also i think a lot of people don't feel heard they're like i'm speaking in fucking circles because you're not hearing me there's a lot of power in saying, I do hear you. You're saying this. That's not what I intended. I apologize for it coming across like that. Here's what I meant to say. Not in the aggressive, jokey way that Scott's saying it, but saying in a way like, this is truly what I meant. Now, I'm not saying it's going to solve all arguments, but I think it's a very sort of peaceful way to have a conversation. I think there's one other thing you mentioned in there, Zach, that's so important to remember is that when you're with someone, you're with them

because you love them and you want to be with them and never, ever do you intend to hurt that person or to hurt their feelings. But it does happen. And you just have to remember that neither one of you wants to hurt the other right yeah yeah the other thing i'll give you my therapist told me to read a book that i haven't read yet so i can't vouch for it but it's called getting the love you want and i know it's a power it's a very popular um sort of a couple's conversation book so katie you can read that that's my wedding gift to you dan was there something you wanted to say? Oh, no.

I was just sitting up in my chair. I support everything you guys have said so far. I think patience, listening. I mean, it's just all very smart advice. And I think it concentrates on having respect for your partner and being aware of your own, not necessarily shortcomings, but situations where you could be at fault. It's all about being equal partners. Yeah. but situations where you could be at fault.

It's all about being equal partners. Joelle, I would call on you, Joelle, but we're trying to find you somebody right now. All my relationship advice would be terrible. Oh, snap. Here we go. Wait, wait, wait. What does this say? Find Joelle a lover.

Wow. Is this your whiteboard? Post this on Twitter, yes. Oh, my goodness. We are working on finding Joelle a partner. I actually had someone slide into my DMs and say, hey, introduce me to Joelle. I got to do a little recon on her. Word.

Don't worry. This segment, Scott Foley, you may have missed this because I don't know how often you listen to the show, but we are working on a new segment called Find Joella Lover. We're going to be hopefully teaming up with a popular dating app. Did I mention on the show that there's a gamers dating app? What? No. No.

Someone told me that there's a – How does that work? How does a gamers dating app work? Aren't they busy playing video games the whole time? And they can play together. Their courtship could start playing a game. My wife and I play video games all the time together. Yeah, right.

Love to hear it. I would love to hear two people just meet on a date and play Call of Duty together. Or some shit like that. Or some game where they're yelling, I fucking bodied you, you piece of shit! That's love. You should hear Marika. You should hear Marika when we play Halo online against 12-year-olds. It's fantastic.

I love it. Okay, listen. I think it's called Kippo. Sorry, I'm doing the work because I normally would ask Joelle to do this because this is for her. I want... Here are a few. Soul Geek. Girl Gamer Dating. LFG Dating.

Gamer Dating. Gaming Passions. Looking for Gamers. Zoosk. Zoosk. Anyway, the point is, if any of you work there, maybe hit us up because we really wanted this to become a segment called Find Joella Lover. Oh, my God. We even got a theme song.
