This past season on my podcast, Here's the Thing, I spoke with more actors, musicians, policymakers, and so many other fascinating people, like jazz bassist Christian McBride. Jazz is based on improvisation, but there's very much a form to it. You have a conversation based on that melody and those chord changes. So it's kind of like giving someone a topic and say, okay, talk about this. Listen to the new season of Here's the Thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hi, guys. How you doing, sir? Good. Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi guys! How you doing, sir? I'm good. We have a new sound effect on. I am fine. Well, okay, let's hear the new sound effect. Am I a hunky? It sits right next to Fuck your sound effects machine.

Are you excited about it yeah wasn't that a sarah chalk question at one point didn't she in the show she i think in real life oh no in real life she didn't know i think she didn't know the word because she's canadian and maybe they don't have that term in canada and i think early on, I said, you don't know what that means? And she goes, no. I go, go ask Donald if you are one. And I think she did. And she walked up to me and literally asked me, Donald.

Like an Elliot voice. Donald. Yeah, like, janitor. Janitor, am I a honky? Dude, it's so hot outside that the UK is losing their mother freaking mind. Yeah, the UK in particular is on fire. Well, yeah, because they traditionally don't have air conditioning in their houses. Yeah, wild.

Yo, they're telling, listen, man. It's like Don't Look Up, that movie Don't Look Up. Yeah, I saw that. It's just like that in the UK right now. Where the meteorologists and all of the weather people are like, yo, it's going to be so hot that we're not built for this. It's going to be hot. There are going to be casualties. It's going to be hot like that.

And then the freaking anchors and everything are like, yo, you need to chill out with all of this gloom talk. I saw that clip. I saw that same viral video. It was literally they're like, don't look up the movie in real life. And the anchor was like, oh, come on, Jim. It's not that bad. And he's like, no, seriously, there's going to be thousands of fatalities. Because of this.

Yeah, well, senior citizens and people who can't handle it sitting in a fucking 20 degree house. For the first time in my life, I'm hoping that the meteorologist gets it wrong or that the weatherman gets it wrong. Right. Or that science gets it wrong. It's just across Europe. I guess they can tell that they're just not prepared for these temperatures. Did you see the video in China? they're just not prepared for these temperatures. You say the video of the,

of in China, they showed, they had, I saw this video. So, you know how they have this hardcore, um, COVID, uh,

people, they're all in white suits. You know, they look like ninjas, like, like all buttoned up like that. And like all white suits and they're all taped up like mega hardcore. These people are,

are collapsing in the heat. And they showed this one woman, they opened up her ankle where it's taped and water comes pouring out. And you're like, what is that? It's sweat. It looked like, did you see that video? It was all over the web yesterday.

And it was just like, these people are, like China is particularly really, really, really fucking hot right now just like these people are like china is is particularly really really really fucking hot right now and these people and their hardcore covid outfits are still having to do their job or you know it's insane yeah uh there's this is this is what they were talking about yeah this is coming a bit earlier you know that you know no it's earlier than it's earlier than they predicted what the end of the world or that the heat the heat wave that's coming well both i mean the the they said the heat wave would be right now the next five years they said if we can correct it within this five years

we're good but if oh i thought i thought i heard i thought i heard that someone say again this is all just like stuff you see on i watch a lot of news and skim shit on on the internet webs but someone's saying that these are we're by far exceeding the graph of of of what they expected the temperatures to be reaching oh wow well then there it is right daniel you know this stuff yeah it's going to be getting hotter for a while and there's a lot of mitigating efforts that we can do however there's still enough carbon in the air that is trapped by our atmosphere right now to hit that two degrees Celsius of warming that like we were told, like, oh, we might we may or may not hit. It's like that's just kind of a fact. We're going to hit that.

We would need to really cut carbon emissions like entirely right now and then start our mitigating. That's not going to happen. Let's be honest. Yeah, no, it's not going to happen. Not a good time to buy a house at sea level. No, precisely. But it is a good time to invest in technology companies that are looking at things like carbon capture.

I mean, we don't have anything really huge in that department yet, but that's what we need to do. What we need to be doing is taking carbon out of the atmosphere because the amount that's already trapped there from all of the natural expulsion of whatever that we've done already is enough to hit that two degrees of warming. We should be clear. Climate change

was going to happen regardless. We just boosted it. Why are you wearing a hoodie? Is your AC so cranked that you're wearing a hoodie? No, I like to sweat. Same. Hell yeah. I just don't understand because it's really fucking hot out that you're wearing a hoodie? No, I like to sweat Same I just don't understand because it's really fucking hot out Yeah, it is

It is really hot out right now I kind of like to sweat a little Yeah, you do I like to get a nice little lather going Yeah, you do Get it all nice and lathering Today's my last night on the TV show. Oh.

We're going to have a night driving scene with... Han Solo. Han Solo, Jason Segel, and Michael Urie. Do you know him? He's really funny. I bet he is. And then I'm done. Congratulations.

I think I might go flying with Harrison Ford. Whoa. Donald, how do you feel about this? Is this going to make your villain origin story worse? It's already begun. It's already begun. It has already begun. 98% of the comments on my picture of Harrison Ford on Instagram

are everyone checking in on you, on your health. They're very sweet and very empathetic. They're like, how's Donald? Very funny. You can come fly with us if you want. No, no, no, no, no, no. Just be careful. Well, I'm a private pilot, so as long as he stays in a prop plane, I feel like

I'm a good co-pilot. I can't fly jets. That's great. I'm good. He implied that he was going to invite me. like i'm a good co-pilot i can't fly jets right that's that's great i'm good he implied that he was going to invite me and i was i'm totally down you wouldn't go if i said my friend donald wants to come with us i'm going to chew you the out of it So if anything goes wrong, we're fine. I'm good. Would you not come?

You know, with Harrison Ford's record of crashing prop planes, I think I'm good. Well, first of all, in his defense, it was an old antique plane, and he landed it successfully on a golf course. No, he really did. So the story is actually that he's an amazing pilot. What about the helicopters? I think he hasn't had a helicopter accident. The one that was highly publicized was an old plane that lost its engine,

and he successfully landed on a golf course. I'm sorry to offend my new friend. On Pinmar Golf Course, he landed it. In 1999, he crash-related his helicopter during a training flight in Los Angeles, but both he and the instructor were unhurt. Yeah, he was training. A year later, a plane he was flying had to make an emergency landing in Nebraska.

Again, he and his passenger escaped unhurt. He's a badass. Even if he crashes, he's good at it. I'm not worried. If you were me and you were a private pilot and you could land a propeller plane, you wouldn't go? I would totally go. If I could fly,

if I could fly... Here's the thing. At some point in it, you have... If something were to go wrong, you at least have enough knowledge to be like, I could be in somewhat of control of this situation. I feel like if it's i don't want to be in the back seat just be like that's so loud daniel it went red and i'm all the way at six yeah i appreciate that thank you well i will um i will uh keep everyone updated if uh if it goes down i mean no pun no pun intended

all right uh should we get into the show very funny no there's some other things that we need updated if it goes down. I mean, no pun intended. Alright, should we get into the show? Very funny show. No, there's some other things that we need to talk about. Okay, go ahead, brother. Go ahead. It's so fucking hot. We did that. Did we do that bit already? I just thought we should retouch on the it's so hot bit. It's hot, and I'm grateful

to have air conditioning, and I'm grateful to have a roof over i'm grateful uh to have a roof over my head and uh we have to remember how blessed we are some people are lying out on the fucking cement right now and uh it's it's lethal you're cooking literally cooking yeah anyway let's get into the show all right it's about scrubs the tv show you guys remember that show and is there a show was there a show called scrubs there was it was very beloved and um and um this is a long episode i believe it's a supersized one because it's 25 minutes long we used to occasionally get um nbc would call it uh supersized and i think this is one of those

because it's 25 as opposed to 22 well this is one of my mike mcdon And I think this is one of those cause it's 25 as opposed to 22. Well, this is one of my Mike McDonald. Yeah. This is one of my Mike McDonald. First of all, this is one of my favorite supersized episodes. Very good episode.

Very funny. And count us in. Five, six, seven, eight. Mike McDonald, famous for Mad TV, has gone on to become a director of television. Yes. He starred in other things, obviously.

Yes. But he's one of the funnier people that came in as a director. Yes. There were very few directors that could come in and actually have joke input on things. That's very true, Donald. And Mike would come in and his jokes would make the show. The best comedy director in TV

archetype that we both liked was someone who not only could direct the show and make the camera move in a cool way and go quickly, but also could come up with additional jokes, was there to pitch alongside me and Donald and Bill and Neil and everybody. And Mike was certainly one of those people because he's, you know, an improv sketch comedian from MADtv, most famously.

And this was his very first episode. He's gone on to become a successful TV director. But he's not only the director of this episode, Donald, but he's the voice of Dr. Toilet. You know what else is special about this episode? Oh, I already know what else is special about this episode.

I thought you might have missed it. I'm not going to miss that. No way. As a matter of fact, I even looked for it. Oh, I did too. I looked for it. So my father, who has since passed away, everybody, and my stepmother came to visit on the day of the convention where it's revealed that Elizabeth Banks, the character of Kim, is pregnant. And if you look, I wrote down the time codes. They get featured around 10 minutes and 33 seconds in 11 minutes and 5 seconds in 13 minutes and 17 seconds in if you're curious in the beautiful uh light blue sweater that is my father

who i miss a lot and my stepmother's next to him and uh he just loved the show and he loved donald and he was so proud of us and uh and and also you know i i've said before i got into acting because my father loved acting my father did a community theater so not to not to like you know brag about my dad but if you look at his background work he's really killing it and doing a great job he does he crushes it he crushes it not every background not every background person is as good as my father my father sold the hell hell out of attendee at a conference. The thing that got me was how young they both looked. You know what I mean?

It was like, wow. You know what I mean? It was just so beautiful. I found myself. This is what happened. The scene happened. And right away, I said, oh, shit. Hal's in this.

Hal's in this. Right? And so it comes again. And now I'm looking in the background. I was like, I know he's behind us. Where is he? And then I found him right away. Yeah, he looks so handsome. So handsome. He looks a lot like you know, he used to get literally mistaken for Hugh Hefner. He does look like

a bit like Hugh Hefner. He did look a bit like Hugh Hefner. And for the most part, people would come up to him and go, I know who you are and I'll leave you alone. Like it was that much. And when one time at a, one time at a Mets game, he loved the Mets and he would go to lots of Mets games. I got him seasons tickets. And he, one time, instead of being like, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not like the vendor, one of the vendors was like, I know who you are are but i'll leave you alone um and my dad instead of being like no no no he kind of pointed at the guy like our little secret and then of

course the vendor went on to tell everyone in the room that hugh hefner was in in the section and it got to the point where people come in to to look at him. And my dad was like, we got to move. We can't stay here. Because it was distracting him from the game. So he had to move. Do you have any pictures of that when you were a kid of people that you thought was somebody else? And then you took a picture with them. And then you look at it now. And you're like, who the fuck is this?

What do you mean? I lost track of what you're saying. So on the internet there are a lot of pictures of people who thought they met michael jackson or thought they met me or thought they met like you know all of these other celebrities and stuff like that people who kind of favored not looked alike lookalikes but favored uh these celebrities so i saw one where it's clearly not michael jackson uh-huh oh is it impersonator or just look like him it is an impersonator it's not even a but it doesn't it's clearly not michael jackson and this kid's got his arm around him all geeked

and i guess mike came to the hood in this kid's mind. You know what I mean? Came all the way down to like, right. You know what I mean? I've seen pictures of people have sent me DMS saying it was so fun hanging out with you tonight. Thanks for the picture. And it's somebody else. Did you see the picture? Yeah. One of them,

one dude, one dude's like, literally you can tell at some point these people decided to pay for his drink or something. And he was like, yeah, fuck it. I'm Donald Faison. I don't give a fuck. And he ran with it. I have this thing with Dax where sometimes people will be like,

hey, man, I just loved We Go to Prison. What's Dax's movie about prison? Oh, I don't know. Dan, I'll look it up. But he was in some movie. And then I'll always text Dax and be like just so you know the guy at the hardware store um west hollywood loves let's go to prison that's the one let's go to prison and then i'll be like i told him that i dax do not like it when people make eye contact with me please refrain from talking

to me you should be like you should next time somebody does that you should and you get to the no eye contact part you should first talk about yourself in the third person first of all Dax don't take Dax's never really do it but I always tell Dax

like that whomever has mistaken me for him that i was very rude to them and tell them that yeah like third person like you do not look dax in the eyes all right so elliot is super stoked because uh her and and Keith are planning a wedding. Yes. But really, Elliot's planning the wedding. Keith says to her, two months is not enough time, Elliot, because Elliot has backed it into a church reservation she's made for many, many years. And all Elliot hears in when Keith says two months is not enough time is go ahead and do whatever you want, regardless of what I say. And she's off to the races planning her wedding within two months is not of time is go ahead and do whatever you want regardless of what i say

yeah and she's off to the races planning her wedding within two months yes um you say something like uh ref teeing up um well first of all jd can't stop thinking about elliot yes she's on his mind you know that happens when when you know you might think you're over someone and then you hear that they're engaged or they had a baby and you're like oh shit it hits harder now you know yeah i know well they have a baby what do you mean well no no i mean that's a shit ton of responsibility at that point so you know he's caught feelings because you know shit's getting real with keith real real real real like well yeah it's marriage real that's that's crazy so to take his mind off a thing turk invites jd to phoenix to a surgical uh conference right in uh where there's going to be chicks there's going

to be food yes it'll be drink and they can do all of their little uh jokes that they've wanted to do they can go on a wacky adventure and we do a joke about how when you uh when in films when you crane up and the car is going off in the distance you can still hear people talking yeah well the car is off screen and now it's just now it's just a picture of the parking lot it's funny they're still talking and turk has to go pee. That's funny. And they just left. But before that, we have a Basic Instinct 2 joke

where JD shows that he used movie phone. For those of you who are too young to know, and it's amazing, you guys, that we have listeners who are too young to know what movie phone is. I appreciate. I'm going to say this right now. I appreciate those listeners. I appreciate you.

I appreciate you for going, what the heck is movie phone. I appreciate, I'm going to say this right now. I appreciate those listeners. I appreciate you. I appreciate you for, for going, what the heck is movie phone? I appreciate you for not knowing what the fax machine sounds like. I appreciate the modem dialing up. Yeah. I appreciate you for that. I appreciate you.

Dan will insert, Dan will insert a old school modem dialing up noise here. This is how we used to connect to the, yes. Beginnings of the internet music to my ears but we used to call for those of you who don't know to find out movie times before the internet on a landline you'd call a hotline from a landline and i do a

pretty good impression of the guy do it let's hear you ready yeah if you know the name of the movie you'd like to see press one that's pretty good right yeah and then remember when they made it so that you had to type the first three letters yes and then he would be like if you selected arrow oh yeah he would do like the tone of the movie he'd be like you have selected die hard or you have selected up yeah you have selected mary poppins dalmatians yeah like if it was a up movie if it was a comedy he'd do a little twist right if it was a dark movie he'd go a little twist. If it was a dark movie, he'd go down. Yeah. I wonder what he would do for romantic comedy.

It can't be a comedy, just romance movies. Maybe like, you have selected When Harry Met Sally. That's one of my favorite movies of all time, man. It's a classic. It's one of my favorites. Anyway, that guy owned the company. A little tribute for you. I did not know that. I did not know that.

Anyway, so that's how we used to find out If I did not know that, press 1. If you know the name of the movie you'd like to see, press 1. For a list of other movies, press 2. Or to browse through I hard 2. Or to browse through. I hard to.

Let the third one. Or to browse through a current list of movies. Browse through a current list of movies that are out. Press to. Fucking A. Anyway, so JD is calling to look up Basic Instinct 2, which I've never seen. Have any of you seen Basic Instinct 2? I don't think the people that

were in basic instinct 2 saw basic instinct 2 well the only reason anyone saw basic instinct 1 was because it was very controversial um it's got a dynamite cast too though hold on you cannot minimize you cannot minimize uh the controversy of the vagina shot which was which hadn't been done in an R-rated movie before. It was a close-up of a vagina as her legs. It wasn't a close-up. Oh, it wasn't? A close-up would have been just vagina.

Labia. Pure labia. I thought that's what it was. No. It was a shot of her sitting, and she had a skirt on, and she had her legs crossed. And then she uncrossed her legs to reveal to the detectives who were interrogating her, her labia majora.

And and then she crossed her legs again. And it was very titillating and very taboo for an R rated movie. Taboo. Hold on now. When you say titillating, meaning your nipples got aroused? No, titillating means arousing. Right, Donald? Right, Daniel? Yeah, indeed. But I mean, that might be a side effect. Yeah, a side effect might be your nipples

getting hard, but titillating means arousing. It was naughty. It was provocative. It made things shift. Did you see this movie as a kid? I think I did. I'm sure I shifted.

I don't know. It was so many years ago. I'm going to say something right now. I've never seen Basic Instinct. Oh, well, I'm sure you can YouTube the scene. Do you think it's still as provocative as it was back then? It's still a young Sharon Stone looking like a knockout, showing her labia majora. Wow.

I've seen a lot of Sharon Stone movies. It was actually a good movie, I think, right, Daniel? I don't remember. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, I think it's a pretty widely regarded decent movie. It was Paul Verhoeven, I think, right? Paul Verhoeven. What's the one with Michael Douglas and...

The Attraction. Yes. That was a good movie. That's a scary movie. That's a good movie. What's the one with Michael Douglas and... Fatal Attraction. Yes. That was a good movie. That's a scary movie. That's the one. That's a good movie. I recommend that. I have a funny... All y'all out there who think about stepping out on your lady,

this is what could happen to you. I have a funny anecdote about that movie. As you know, I went to high school with Lauryn Hill, and I have a memory. We were in all the same classes together, and somehow it came up, the discussion in high school, like, oh, my God, don't go see certain movies with your parents. You'll be so embarrassed. And I remember Lauren Hill telling the anecdote that she had gone to see Fatal Attraction with her mother. Oh, my God.

Which is a very sexual movie, and you certainly wouldn't want to be sitting next to your mother while watching it dude one of my because it's just a random answer that popped in my head when i thought of that movie that's great because i then this popped in my head because of that because of you know how popular mr t was when the a team came out right he, right? He did a movie called DC Cab. Did you ever see DC Cab? I think it was his only movie shot, right? No, he was in Rocky III, too, man. Oh, I'm sorry, of course, but

outside of Rocky III, I don't think he had that many shots. Taxi was one of them. DC Cab was one of them. And there's a scene where they go into the strip club in the movie. I was very young when it came out. And the way we sold it to this dude's mom was that Mr. T is in the movie.

Mr. T, there's no way he'd ever do a movie that's right. Yeah, Mr. T was very wholesome. Right. We go to the movie and the strip scene happens. And she tells us to cover our eyes your friend's mom yeah did you do it come on buddy did you do the finger thing like yeah man i watched that whole shit i was like oh ass titties no vagina but thong titty i was yeah i remember being like holy shit I remember at one point

some girl comes out and she just has on a towel and the person grabs the towel I think it's even what's his name that does it this is his scene Gary Busey who's one of the stars in this movie I've never seen DC cabs you've mentioned so many things

I like including Mr. T yeah Mr. T Gary bucey rips the towel off the stripper and she's standing in the street yelling at them in the middle of dc butt naked and i just remember being like oh shit in my you know saying that out loud and my uh friend's mom being like oh my god watch your mouth before mom she was in over her head well she had to go you guys lied to me you told me it was wholesome she had to go and tell my mom what was in the movie after the boys have seen some titties yeah once you've seen some things surely surely i remember walking to my parents room we didn't have a cable we had a thing in

jersey called wht you ever heard of that whoo do you remember wht oh they played porn on wht no we didn't get porn on wht yes they did well maybe late night i was i was very young and but we didn't get cable in my town for some reason but for some reason the only thing we got it was like the early hbo um was this box and you could get maybe it came to the phone line i don't know how it worked, but we had WHT. WHT was the equivalent of HBO. It was just like HBO had to show movies. But this was like,

for some reason, my town didn't get normal cable. And so it's all we had. And they would show R-rated movies. My bad. Let me say one thing just to, before you go into it. HBO came in a cable box.

WHT, you had to order through some, I don't know if it was a phone or something. It was a separate thing, yeah. But it was something completely different. It was a box. Right, but there was the WHT box and then there was the whatever, the cable box. All we had was WHT.

And I remember my brother, older brother, was allowed to be in my, it was only in my parents' room. And he was allowed to be in there watching R-rated movies. walk in and he's watching stripes remember stripes yeah of course and there's a big mud wrestling naked mud wrestling scene bill murray yeah and i and i walk in and i'm like he goes you're not allowed to be in here being like the tough older brother and i'm like yes i am and he's like this is an r-rated movie you're not allowed to be in here get out and i'm like yes i am and he's like this is an r-rated movie you're not allowed to be in here get out and i was like it's not r and then he goes up to the tv where the mud wrestling scene was happening he goes really what are these

kick me out it was like the prosecution rested I was like those are titties I'm out oh man which brother was it? Gosh, I had nothing left to say. Those are titties.

Yeah, turn and kick. What is it? Kick mud? Kick rocks. All right, back to the show. We come back and... So we go to Phoenix. You say she didn't even show her vajayjay.

And I see it's on the DVD extras, labeled vagina. Right. Why are we inside with shades on? We're just trying to look cool. By the way, for those of you who follow, who like trivia and scrubs wiki things, you'll notice that the lobby of our Phoenix hotel

is the same place where we held the TCW funeral. It's also the former sportsman's lodge. Sportsman's lodge in Hollywood. It's not there anymore. Not in Hollywood in the Valley. Sorry. In the Valley.

They tore it down. They built a new one. I think I know there's a, I know there's a air one over there. If you ever want to buy expensive but good food, go to Air One. There you go. That's Donald with a free Air One plug. And when I mean expensive, I mean, you know how

Whole Foods is whole checks? This motherfucker will take your house. I know. People not in LA probably don't know what it is, or influencers are always posting that they're there. It's beautiful, but it's stupid. The food posting that they're there it's it's a it's beautiful but it's the food is amazing too it's it's beautiful but it's stupid expensive let me

tell you something ain't nothing like strawberries from air one yeah people are always you can look online and people posting like the dumbest shit they'll find like bone broth 100 yeah ridiculous but anyway back to my point um if you like um little scrubs wiki trivia like that um that's the same lobby where we did um tasty como wife's husband's funeral and amy smart and i'm mac in the closet there's something else that was there also that spiller directed the episode i'm sure we used it a bunch. It's like generic, big lobby. You could see it in so many movies also. I'm sure. It's a go-to. And then this is my

favorite part of the television show. Old MC shows up. Wait. Sorry, does Old MC come before Kelso and his posse strut in and Kelso says, me and my fellow chiefs of medicine gonna tear this bitch up. That was funny. Well, yeah, and then Kelso walking

around with the bottle glued to his face for the rest of the episode was hilarious, too. And was very funny in this episode. Very funny. You could tell he was having fun. Yeah. Okay, so yes, old MC. Now explain to me, I had to look it up to see if the story was it really young MC.

It's not. It's an actor. No, it's an actor playing. Right. So, Dan, if you could. I'll look it up. I happen to just look it up. So I'll look it up for you. Hold on.

Let's shout him out. Leon Simmons Jr. played Old Young MC. So Leon Simmons Jr., who played Old MC, the young MC impersonator at conventions was cast because we asked young MC to do the show and he didn't want to do it because he didn't want to play himself. He wanted to play somebody else.

And he probably wouldn't say his catchphrase, Boston Move, because that's always extra. We learned from J.B. on Good Times that saying dynamite was extra. I don't know if that's the case because I don't think that's his extra we learned from jd on good times that saying dynamite was extra i don't know if that's the i don't know if that's the case i don't because i don't think that's his catchphrase but we learned that he was like i'm not gonna play myself i'll play anybody else and we were like but the joke is the whole joke is right and he's like no so somehow bill the genius that he is created old MC.

The old MC is in the world of scrubs, a young MC impersonator. Only at conventions. Only at conventions. He makes that convention money. But he's really freaking, he's like, and he does his job where he'll sit at the bar with you and say, bust a move. That's all he'll say.

That's it. Until the end when JD finally a move. That's all he'll say. That's it. Until the end, when JD finally has enough. You have a problem, sir. But JD takes his advice and busts a move right on out of the motherfucking convention. JD goes against Turk's advice

to stay and deal with this new surprise. Instead, busts a move back to the hospital. Right. Okay, so to this day, Leon and I have played golf together. Oh, really? Yeah, dude. We've run into each other at the golf course and played around at Van Nuys golf course. It's a little executive.

A couple of times and have waved to each other. Well, he was funny. I want to give him a shout out. He did a great job on this, other. He was funny. I want to give him a shout out. He did a great job on this, man. He was funny. Just with his facial expressions alone, because saying bust a move over and over and over again can get old. You know what I mean?

No pun intended. And he found a way to make it. Our riffs to him are so funny when I'm like, you bust a move. You're the one who should be busting moves. Yeah. We're so geeked. Oh my god. Did Young MC have other hit

songs other than bust a move? Don't just send their bust a move. You got it. You got it. Baby, you got it. I think that's it. His toe-mock head wild thing.

Remember Funky Cold Medina? Slap. I think that's it. His total head wild thing. Oh my God. Remember Funky Cold Medina? And Funky Cold Medina. That song was a slap. One of these things were like, wasn't it the same? No, never mind. I want to give you a piece of Funky Cold Medina just because the young kids should know. What is Funky Cold Medina?

Nobody knows. But isn't it an aphrodisiac? I think so. It's a drink. Oh, it's a drink. I think it's an aphrodisiac. Cold, cool, and not a bar. And I'm looking for some action.

But like Mick Jagger said, I can't Mick Jagger said I can't get no satisfaction I can't get no but none of them wanna get with me alright 30 seconds I don't know I think as I recall the lyrics Daniel what are the lyrics something about it being an aphrodisiac right it's a drink

you're right yes it is that we talked about this already on the show no we didn't did we ever bring up Funky Cole Medina because Elizabeth Banks character Right, yes, it is that. We talked about this already on the show. No, we didn't. Yeah, we did. Daniel, did we ever bring up Funky Cole Medina? Because Elizabeth Banks' character died of something died from a Funky Cole Medina. And we were like, where the fuck is the Funky Cole Medina? No, she hasn't died yet.

She's pregnant. No, that's the thing is somebody that she knew died from a Funky Cole Medina. I don't remember if that's how bad my memory is. And it's only like 20 episodes ago. I need Joelle here. Joelle's not here today, but I need her to confirm that. Well, go ahead, Daniel. What is it? Long story short, you're right.

A funky Cole Medina is a aphrodisiac kind of liquid. Yes. Basically, Tone Locke is standing on the other side of the club watching all these girls hang with this no-name chump. And he's like, what's the deal? And he's like, funky Cole Medina. And he's like, Funky Cole Medina. Oh. Okay, on that note, we're going to take a quick break.

We'll be right back. Am I a hunky? Hi, this is Shannon Doherty, host of the new podcast, Let's Be Clear with Shannon Doherty. You may know me from, let's see, 90210, Charmed, Mallrats, Heathers.

and compelling performance. In our conversation, Michael really opens up. You're going to love listening to it. And I can't wait for you to check it out. The closest to getting what you want is always the hardest.

I'm Minnie Driver, and this was the idea I set out to explore in my podcast, Minnie Questions. This year, we bring a whole new group of guests to answer the same seven questions, including actress and star of the mega hit sitcom Friends, Courtney Cox. You can't go around it, so you just go through it. This is a roadblock. It's gonna catch you down the road. Go through it. Deal with it. Comedian,

writer, and star of the series Catastrophe, Rob Delaney. I shouldn't feel guilty about my son's death. He died of a brain tumor. It's part of what happens when your kid dies. Intellectually, you'll understand that it's not your fault, but you'll still feel guilty. That personal disaster wrote Guyville. So everything comes out of a dead end. And many, many more. Join me on season three of Many Questions on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite podcasts. Seven questions, limitless answers.

And we're back. And we're back. Eat these bowls, Zach. Okay, Donald. So Elliot's inviting everyone to her, is it her wedding?

Yeah, she's handing out invitations and she disses Colonel Doctor. Really? She disses Colonel Doctor really badly. Poor Colonel Doctor. Poor Colonel Doctor. Poor Coleman Slosky.

Yeah, that was a rough moment for Colonel Doctor. Probably one of his, one of the lowest moments in the series for Colonel Doctor. Yeah. We learned that she's been planning

the wedding for 10 years. She has a giant album of collage and plans um she we learned that she's been planning the wedding for 10 years she has a giant album of a collage and and plans and you know i imagine that there are a lot of people out there who have been planning their wedding since they were children yeah i'm sure um i don't know to the extent that elliot has she already has the font in her mind what she wants uh she went to calligraphy camp to to really get to know the calligraphy yes said font and when um and when keith gets the font wrong she she quickly does the perfect good calligraphy on his chest yes

the janitor has now taken the role of chief of medicine. He even asked, which was great. He asks everybody in the hospital, Hey, look, Kelso's gone. Would you, and I can't freaking do my role playing thing that I do with my buddies. Oh no.

It's the Lord of the Rings. Warhammer or some shit like that, because he bought a real Warhammer to it, to a D and D session, to a D and D session. And so he fucked, he fucked up the table when he threw it down on the table. And he's like, I need to get my...

I need to role play. I need to get my role playing fix. And they're like, he's like, can I play the chief of medicine? And the whole hospital's like, yeah, go for it, man. Little do they know, his role playing turns out to be

one of the best things that's ever happened to the hospital. Right. He's somehow figured out a way to get children's daycare going on there. Yep. Ted's happy

to go to work every morning. Yep, Ted's happy. He makes Ted Fax a whole book. He ultimately brings in Dr. Toilet. Now let's get to this freaking fantasy. Let's get to this fantasy about Roger Toilet. The fucking toilet's name is Roger.

Yes. Now, Roger in this fantasy is a working doctor at the hospital. Yes. And he's a colleague. Yes. And I have to have an uncomfortable conversation with him. Because even though he's a toilet, he is a working doctor at the hospital. And I shat in him.

Down his throat. Yes. You shat down his throat. And it's played totally straight. And I have an earnest conversation with him where I apologize. JD shat down his throat while he was taking a nap too. Oh, no, no. That's what's fucked up.

That's what it starts off as. He was like, you know what? It ends with that. No, you say, you say, I didn't know that you were a real toilet. I mean, I didn't know that you were a doctor. I thought you were something like that. Cause you were like, he was like, I was taking a nap and you were like, yeah, but I didn't know because you didn't respond.

And then you sit on top of him and he's like, you didn't respond. You didn't think I was taking a nap and you were like, yeah, but I didn't know because you didn't respond. I sit on top of him and he's like, you didn't respond. You didn't think I was responding. I was yelling while you were taking your number two down my throat. And you go and JD says, oh, I thought that was me. My defense,

Roger. I thought those noises were coming from me. That is some twisted shit. No pun intended. And then the fantasy ends with him taking another nap. Right. that is some twisted shit no pun intended and then the fantasy ends with him taking another nap he says to his

assistant hold all my calls I'm gonna take a nap leans back in his chair and then you see JD sneaking in with the newspaper he's like there are 67 toilets in this hospital why don't you use one that's not an actual doctor that was what dude listen i'm not gonna lie friendly oh gosh some of the best some of the best fantasies just to break them down the fact that the toilet somehow formed

consciousness and then decided he i just love love that Bill decided that it should all be played totally straight. It's just like, as though you're talking to a fellow doctor. Right. And you shit down his throat. Yeah. Mike McDonald, again, the voice of the toilet. Yeah. So Cox, that was cool when Cox clever, when Cox in the cafeteria with Elliot gets in her head and he says, you're only with Keith because you want to get married. You're not with Keith because he's your true, you know, life partner.

You you and he does this thing where he eliminates all the options. You know, the men are too old. The guys who are gay, the the guys who are creepy. The guy is Ted and Ted tries to leap to not disappear. And he says about, he says about Mick had the guy who just got the guy who beat the murder rap for killing his wife. Yeah. Everyone disappears except Keith.

So Cox really gets in her head and she realizes maybe he's right. Maybe she's just getting married to get married. And Keith isn't really the one. He's just a placeholder. Okay. So now what is this beef? Cause it seems to be going on forever. And there's another thing that I don't understand because it, it happens in this scene also.

Dude, he calls me Gandhi. He calls you random girls names. He calls Sarah. Yeah. He calls Keith random girls' names. He calls Sarah Barbie. He calls Keith, Keith. Yeah, what about it? He calls Keith, Keith.

How the fuck does Keith have more respect? Or you could look at it the other way, that he gives so little fucks about Keith that he doesn't even have time to come up with one of his witty nicknames. I don't know, man. I just remember in camp, you know,

there were like the cool kids got nicknames and like, I remember me and my friend so badly wanted nicknames. Cause like all the older cool kids had nicknames and they gave like me a nickname and he didn't get one. And I was like, Oh shit. I'm psyched to have a nickname, but I feel bad for my buddy. Cause he didn't get a nickname and he didn't get one. And I was like, oh shit, I'm psyched to have a nickname, but I feel bad for my buddy.

Cause he didn't get a nickname. Oh my gosh. Musical theater camp. Um, what was your nickname? I don't even remember. I knew you were going to ask. It was probably something like Javert.

Um, yeah. Vrash. All right. The rock. Oh, Kim's's pregnant How fucked up is this? I mean, let's just play, let's just be real about it If this happened in real life This is the most fucked up thing in the world

Oh, dude Yeah, look, man So, this is what happens I can't stop thinking about Pippin Pippin Who's stop thinking about Pippin. Pippin. Who's he playing?

Pippin. That was your nickname. I can't even call you Pippin. All right, I'm done. All right. What show is he in? Pippin. Who's he playing?

Pippin. All right. So what are your thoughts on Kim lying about carrying my child? That's fucked up, dude. That's fucked up. And it happens. You know what I mean? It happens all the time.

Really? It happens? I mean, I know it happens, but that's so fucked up. Yeah, you know, it is fucked up. But, you know. I mean, especially in a world where this guy would have been a good father who showed up. Whoa. It's not like a man.

It's not like someone who would have been a bad influence or would have been a bad father. This is a guy who, with all his flaws, would have showed up and provided financial help and would have been an amazing dad, even if they weren't together. Provided financial help and would have been an amazing dad, even if they weren't together. But it would have been a good relationship, too, because even when they when they broke up, they didn't break up because of because of not getting along. They broke up because she took a job far away. You know what I mean? I know, but it's really fucked up. I mean, like just I'm just saying outside the world of a comedic television show, I just find it really fucked up that someone would do that.

It happens. Well, I'm sure it does happen happen but that's that's tragic and i was i was sad for jd because even though you know kim might not have been the one uh for him ultimately you know that you can tell that jd's gonna be an awesome dad and um and he he was genuinely shocked as we all would be yeah i was i remember when we shot that and i hadn't read the script and she stepped up with a pregnant belly and i was like oh shit she's pregnant still donald found out found out along with the audience uh he had no idea well no i found out when we were shooting so a little bit earlier than that yeah but that was funny remember when we're air groping or air grope i go her boobs look bigger

right and yeah i go hold on let me check and i'm like they line up the camera with my hands and i'm like yeah they're bigger and you you join in you're like yeah you tell me i could do it and i look at you and i look at you like a word okay because i didn't want to air grope unless i got the okay no yeah well i gave you i gave you permission i didn't have to air grope unless I got the okay. I gave you permission. I didn't have to air grope. They don't have appletinis at the bar, but they have peach tinis. I say that's a little foofy for my taste.

They've crossed the line. Peach is too much. I feel like peach usually that's the good drink. Peach tini? just any peach drink though right like when it like peach iced tea that snapples peach oh yeah i used to drink that back in the day slaps you know that's probably 4 000 calories but i used to drink that back

that shit was tasty i know peach snapple iced tea tea not giving it a shout out not giving it a shout out because it's probably a cup of sugar let's find out we'll find out right now how much sugar is in a standard old school bottle of peach Snapple iced tea Snapple peach tea has 40 grams

of sugar which is 79% of your daily intake and I'll tell you what it's 40 total sugars and 40 grams of added sugars. And those are the ones that will really get you. It's not natural. What's a Coke? What's a real, what's a regular Coke can of Coke nutrition facts. It's like 39 sugars.

And then it's like, but it's like 37%. I just want to know the grams of sugar. There's no nutritional value at all in Coke. It's just sugar. It is 39 grams. So less. One less. One gram less than a can of Coke. And then how much of it is added?

100%. I mean, all of it. There's no added. Coke isn't real. At least peach iced tea has something natural in it. I read the back of a Coke recently because I love Coca-Cola. Listen, it's my favorite drink. You drink real Coke? I drink a little too much of it. A 12-ounce can

of Coke is 39 grams of added sugars and a... How big is this? This is a 16-ounce of Snapple PJ's tea has 40 grams. I used to drink that shit when I was a kid. Love it.

Listen, I'm not going to lie to you. I love Coca that is one that is my only uh it's just such a waste of calories it's so stupid yeah but it's the only like i don't drink a lot of booze anymore i don't drink a lot of anything anymore the one thing i do enjoy is coca-cola but it will be the death of you if you drink it every day that is everybody likes a little ass play don't even that's another thing that you like so um back to the show it's not just me everybody likes it everybody likes a little ass play. That's another thing that you like. So back to the show. Well, it's not just me. Everybody likes it. Everybody likes a little ass play, dude. Okay, listen.

Thank you. Plus the move. You have a problem, sir. We're almost to the end. Jordan is the one who finally told Cox to cut it out and be nice to Elliot. And that makes Cox come around and say, I can't believe I can still get in your head like this. But he loves the fact that he could still do it. Yes.

But pretty much tells her, you know, him telling her that, that Jordan put him up to it. He doesn't tell her. Yeah, he does. He lies.

He says, Jordan told me to do this right before he leaves. No, it's a flashback. He goes, he goes, he,. No, it's a flashback. She goes, why are you telling me this? And we flashed to Jordan being like, stop fucking, she calls her stick. Stop fucking with stick.

Stop messing with sticks. And then we cut back and he goes, and I totally did this on my own volition, in so many words. Got it. I was about to say, because if he would have said that, that would have totally sabotaged the situation which he already did he's already put the doubt once the doubt sets in dude it's a wrap that's how it goes well he fucked with her and then so i walk in and she goes jd do you think i'm making a mistake marrying keith and before i can answer kim shows up and she's like jd why did you? And there we have the classic love triangle. Dun, dun, dun.

I can have that sound effect. Well, let me let me ask you a question. Go ahead. So the practical thing is to get with Kim, obviously the right thing. I don't know. How do you put this without sounding like... So your heart would be like, I want to be

with Elliot. The right thing to do is to be with Kim. I think that term right is... It's wrong. It's the wrong term. I don't think it's right because she's done one of the biggest betrayals J.D. probably will ever have in his entire life.

She can't be trusted. She's she's, she does something that's, I think fucking sociopathic. And, um, and also we, we know spoilers that he's truly in love with Elliot.

She's the one. Well, we don't know that yet. We don't know that. No, but he's wrestling with it. And we, we, the audience at this point in the show don't know that no but he's wrestling with it and we the

audience at this point in the show don't know it but we but we know in hindsight um and so i think that it's not i i think you can't make decisions based on um you know life is so short you have to make choices that are you know responsible choices but also choices that are um you don't marry someone um well there's not in love with well there's a moral there's a moral uh there's a moral obligation to take care of the child now that he knows it's his of course which i think we all know jd will do there's a moral obligation to be in the child's life which i'm sure we all know jd will do but to now say oh i'm going to marry you out of obligation i think is is wrong and he feels betrayed by her yep he would be betrayed i want to give you a

couple um yeah i agree with you a couple of scrubs wiki things the guest is we have a guest here but scrubs wiki things elliot says she wanted flourished italic as the lettering on the wedding invitations yet the lettering she tells tells Keith that it should look like is copperplate. Oh, boy. That's the level of detail in Scrubs Wiki this week. Nobody cares, Trevor. Trevor went deep. Elliot says that she reserved a church for the third weekend in July,

ever since she was 19, but in season three episode, My Journey, she says that she booked her wedding for April 25th, 2006. Nobody cares, Trevor. And here you go. This is one you'll like. The original air date of this episode was May 10th, 2007. Coincidentally, Donald, drumroll,

Daniel, timpani, May 10th is the real young MC's birthday. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. It was all planned. We were trying to give him the dopest birthday present ever.

Yeah. And he didn't want it. And he didn't want it. And he didn't want it. And he didn't want it. There it is. All right. Should we take a break, Daniel?

And we'll come back with a guest? All right. Let's take a break here. And we're going to come back with a really fun guest. I have no idea who it is. We'll be right back. We'll be back. Wu-Tang forever.

We both have the same question. The only time they ever throw to us is if they have a specific question about something that's happening in the script or whatever they play this game called true american and sometimes they're like wait what are we doing here that's about it and then are you guys on the podcast talking no i mean like like very occasionally if something needs to be clarified and i deem that that clarification is worth putting into the edit but other than that no damn every time you talk on that podcast, I die a little inside.

I'll adjust my voice so it's not... I was going to tell Siegel he should do a How I Met Your Mother podcast. Are they not? I don't know if anyone is, but I don't think Jason's involved, but since I'm seeing him for the last time tonight doing the show, I should mention it to him.

Who would he do it with, though? Him and Neil Patrick? How great would him and Neil Patrick Harris be? That would be a great show. I mean, I don't know the show that well, but I'm sure the fans would love it. That would be really amazing. All right. Y'all ready? Yes. Bring in the call. Play the song, Dan.

Why did it end this way? Yeah. My sister, rest in peace, used to always play that video of that guy going, Patty! This wasn't how it was supposed to be. Daniel, do you remember that video I'm talking about?

Vaguely. It was a viral video of a guy really loving Patty's pies from Walmart. He sold her pies, actually. He sold it out. Yeah, he made it so that everybody went and bought those pies. Well, he was so funny, and that was the best way to sell those damn pies.

Alright, so Josh, do you have a question for us? Welcome to the podcast. Josh, you might get a super-duper raise if you're funny on this and sell them biscuits. Oh, man, that's a lot of pressure. I'm about to speak to the biscuits for now. Don't worry about Red Lobster. They're doing fine.

By the way, there was this chain I saw on the interwebs of, I think it probably started on Twitter, where someone said, if you work at any corporate, you know, franchisee kind of place, or what's a secret that, that, uh, that they definitely don't want out. And then people were spilling all these secrets. Like when the shake machine is down at McDonald's,

it's not a down. It's cause like we're overwhelmed with work and we can't deal with the shake machine right now or some shit like that. People were telling all these stories, like the gravy it's this chain is, is just the fucking old used fat from the fry machine mixed with powder like all these secrets the donuts at dunkin donuts are frozen i learned that one i didn't know that i'll start spilling when they stop paying the bills i'm not asking you i hear that all right go ahead josh what's

your question oh yeah real quick I do want to show you the reason Joel picked me, I think, is because I've got myself a Rowdy. Wow! How did you get that? He's holding up a stuffed golden retriever. Not a taxidermy one, everyone, but he has a very

life-size stuffed golden retriever. That was a gift from my sister, and I also own a Venice Blue 49cc scooter with the plate saying Sasha. Wow. You're a true fan. Heck yeah. I love that.

I posted a picture on Facebook. This is like a 10-year-old picture. I posted it on your Facebook, which if you don't run, don't tell me. But you commented amazeballs, and it like made my life. Well, that's zach's that's zach's term so he definitely was it a long time ago it was about 10 years ago oh yeah good because i don't i don't want you to be misled i haven't been on facebook and probably but um but um but dude that's so cool you're probably the only person with a with a real mock-up of sasha i

would imagine on earth i don't know. They sold him. Well, Zach took it back, but I had a scooter once. Yeah, I gave him a scooter. He had a big birthday, and I decided it was awesome. He never rode it. I rode it like twice, but it was a gray scooter, and I called it Sasha Gray.

I like that. It was so clever, and my feelings were really hurt because i gave him a fucking really dope scooter and he didn't ride it i just feared for my life i had just had a kid my wife was like my wife was a bad gift you can't give someone a gift that makes you know that's fair i i rolled sasha so that's a thing that happens my wife was like there's no way you're riding that in this canyon i was like what are you talking wife was like, there's no way you're riding that in this canyon. I was like, what are you talking about? She was like, there's no way. She wasn't my wife yet, but we were.

Well, no, she was my wife. She was about to have the baby. Well, that's fair. I guess it was a dumb gift when I look in hindsight. It's not a dumb gift. No, in hindsight. You can give it to me now. I'm going to sell it on a motorcycle because it's a choice.

I'll use it now. I already sold it. Remember, I reclaimed it. I was like, if you're not going to ride it, just sit there and rot. I'm going to sell it. I remember you did do that. You took it back and sold it. Well, I mean, it wasn't worth nothing, and you were just going to let it

rot. It was an electric scooter, too. It was an electric... No, it wasn't. Yeah, it was. It didn't take gas. You got it at that electric scooter spot, but you had to still get a license. Yeah, I remember. The spot on freaking Ventura is where you got it from, right? I got it at the V scooter spot, but you had to still get a license. Yeah, I remember. The spot on freaking Ventura is where you got it from, right? I got it at the Vespa store,

but it was a different brand than Vespa, and it most certainly was not electric. Okay. Trust me. I drove it. Before I sold it, I drove it around a little bit. How long did you drive it around for? How many times did you ride it? Well, I have a real motorcycle, so I drove it like twice.

It was like, oh, cute. So what were you going to do? Were you going to call me up and be like, yo, dude, come over. Let's go ride. And I'm going to ride next to your fucking hog and I'm sitting on my freaking Sasha Gray. This is when you lived in the canyon and I thought you might like to go run an errand down to the country store

on it. I just thought it might be fun. But no, it wasn't. They are fun. They are fun. I had a scooter in college. store on it i just thought it might be fun but no it wasn't they are fun they are fun i had a guy had a scooter in college i loved it i thought i was so cool um all right girls did you take out on dates on that scooter um it's funny it was handed down to me by by somebody who graduated and it was so loud i learned later incredibly um um dangerous because I learned later, incredibly dangerous because the reason it was loud was like it was on the verge of locking up. It was like, and I'm stupidly flooring it all around. And it was so loud.

I don't think I ever, I only had one helmet. I think so. I don't think I drove anybody. Anyway, go ahead, Josh. What's the question for us? Yeah, I think it was like after you guys moved to ABC, they started showing like a gag reel as the credits rolled. And I remember one specifically where Zach was improv-ing different things he would do with a taxidermied Turk.

And you could just hear Bill in the background yelling, come on now, you know i can't use that and so i i was wondering if you guys remembered any uh bits or jokes that either that got cut for whatever reason that you that you really liked oh hundreds i mean just because we would you know donald you can hear from listening to the podcast we go r-rated uh unfortunately too fast and uh so we would do it to make each other laugh and to make the crew laugh and make bill laugh but then he'd be like dude they're not gonna put that on abc or the most famous one though the most famous one is todd always was in his banana hammock right yeah

we moved from nbc to ab, we could no longer show them. They deemed it too much cock. They would not show it. I think the old episodes, they ended up cropping into the image. They cropped into images. I get it because it is a bulge.

I think it's safe to say that he's well endowed and it was a lot it was a lot for a family audience by the way you bring up a good point uh josh for those of you who listen and love this um podcast you should you should go on youtube where they have all the gag reels from every uh gag reels or blooper reels whatever you want to call it. They have them from each season and they're very funny. I think you'll laugh a lot at them. They were on the DVDs back when people bought DVDs. But if you'd never bought the DVDs,

you probably wouldn't have ever seen them. And they're really funny and they're all on YouTube. Do you have another question? Yeah. I was just wondering if you guys could talk a little bit. Because I know you guys are really tight with Bill. But at the end of the day, he's captaining the ship. So he's still the boss.

So what's the... What's it like to navigate the friendship? He's my friend. He's my buddy. He's my boss. That was hard when we were filming. When we were filming the show, for me, it was very difficult. Because Bill is very competitive, too.

You know what I mean? And when I say competitive, he's competitive too you know what i mean and when i say competitive he's a he's he's alpha you know what i mean yeah and he and he hired a bunch of alphas which was which is nuts but and so and then he would invite us all to like compete against each other in basketball or whatever it is and you know you say things and you know and sometimes when basketball comes to the comes to you know it comes to work and you're playing at lunch and stuff like that and it was real hard to hang out with this dude and compete against him knowing that he's also my boss you know now granted now granted bill is the person that's like yo give me your best and if you beat me you beat me

so be it he's not the person that's you know you beat me and now you're fired but it would be very difficult it's very difficult to muster the courage to say to your boss get that shot out of here you know well i never had that problem because i didn't play basketball which is which is something to say to your boss, get that shot out of here. You know what I mean? Well, I never had that problem because I didn't play basketball, which is something that Bill takes a lot of pride in. And when I played him ping pong once, he said, would you mind if I played left-handed? This isn't any fun for me.

Oh, man. So that's Bill. But I have to say, you know, I always felt like there was work mode Bill and then there was friend mode Bill, you know? At work, he was clearly the boss. And whether I was directing or acting, you know i always felt like there was work mode bill and then there was friend mode bill you know right at work he was clearly the boss and and and whether i was directing or acting you know you yielded to him because this was his baby and he's fucking really good at it and um and then there was hanging out being his friend and then that you know it was like a different environment you know it was like you know then he was just a buddy right now as now as uh as i've grown to know him i have no problem being who i naturally am yeah around him but for a long time it was like i know i i know at work i'm supposed to respect you

and outside of work am i supposed to respect you too you know yeah um i think also one thing i was keenly aware of was that he had a vested interest in our egos not getting out of control when the show became popular. Because he didn't want us to become difficult divas. And so he always kind of, especially in the beginning, definitely kept us in our place. And he would occasionally do things that were taking taking our egos down a peg and um i i didn't really notice that until till later but he he didn't you know he he he kind of strategically made sure our heads didn't get too big which is which is good which is like an older brother kind of figure you know but he would yeah yeah he definitely protected us from ruining ourselves you know what i mean like

sincerely uh because he once said to me like i remember he was like he was like 50 joking but he was like i can always find a new intern but he was always good at that. You know what I mean? Like if, if it seemed like nobody ever got out of hand and we did nine seasons of a show, everybody, everybody had a moment of real popularity, not bullshit popularity, real popularity.

And he kept the show going for nine seasons. So it's a, it really is a testament to how well of a coach he is too. You know what I mean? He's not just the owner. He's a great coach. Yeah, that's awesome. He's like Jerry Buss, Donald.

That's a great analogy, sure. Thank you. Thank you. I prepared for that. You've been watching Winning Time. Yeah, I love Winning Time. Hi, this is Shannon Doherty, host of the new podcast, Let's Be Clear with Shannon Doherty. You may know me from, let's see, 90210, Charmed, Mallrats, Heathers.

I was the class clown in high school? Oh, for sure. I didn't stop talking for most of the classes. That's a good sign. I was the class clown. You seem like somebody who would be good in entertainment. He's going to start my next project.

I didn't say he was going to start this shit. I said he could be it. Give him a line in one of your shows. Hold on. Right. If you get picked up again. When do we find out if you get picked up again for your animation show? It's a while, dude.

They can hold me for something like nine months. Okay. Well, if he gets picked up again, maybe he could be a white person in that. You know what? We're going to need him. Yeah. I'm going to audition too, but he might beat me out. Oh, yeah.

It's going to be tight. How about this? Neither one of you have to audition. Oh, very good. Oh, well, sweet. I'll take that. That's how I do it. See, that's how I do it, Dave Filoni.

Oh, shade. All right. Come on, Josh. How do we fix your life? Oh, okay. So like I said, I'm a performer, but it's not paying the bills yet. So I've got a day job. And on top of that, I got

married last April. So I wonder if you guys had any advice on how to manage making a living, chasing my dreams and maintaining my relationship. Wow. Well, okay. You got to work, obviously. So I think you got a good job. I imagine you have benefits from this jobs. So you don't want to fuck any of that up. You got to find those hours where you're not working and you need to perform as much as you can. And when you're not being a husband also. So you need to, well,

maybe she can come to, I'll bet his wife loves to watch him do standup. I mean, if I were you and you're starting as a standup, you just got it. You got to get those 10,000 hours and just get better and better and better. I don't know what the time is i've seen uh you got like you need your solid fucking five minutes and then you need your fucking solid 10 minutes and

yeah you'll see you'll notice you know from the laughs that you're getting better and better and the crowds are and you're getting booked at bigger and bigger spots but no matter where you are you might have to drive a little bit, but you just got to keep, you got to keep developing and working. It's, it's directly correlates the amount of work you put into it. Now I know you have a nine to five, nine to five, I imagine job. So you got to find the time and maybe, I mean, Donald can speak to this cause he's married, but you know, maybe there's a way if, if it's traveling a bit that your wife can come with you and and and she can you know uh do you got some years not yet right yeah well that's gonna throw a wrench in things so

maybe don't have a kid right away right yeah maybe go out if you especially if you're trying to pursue your dreams uh or your objectives uh uh get out there and get out there that's the that's the honest to goodness advice you gotta get out there a get out there. That's the, that's the honest to goodness advice. You got to get out there. A kid is going to make it harder in two ways. One, you won't be able to travel as easily and, and be, uh, the, the financial burden that that'll put on you. So you should strategize and obviously plan it out with your wife, um, when you might have a kid and stuff, but since you don't have one yet, you have, you have a, certainly have a leg up on someone who has your aspirations and does have a

child. You know, you can, you, you guys can go on the road. Right. You could, you could leave at Friday night after work and, and, and, and, you know, get booked and do shows and be back for Monday morning. Yeah. You gotta always be writing, always be writing. You can be writing at work, man. You can have a notepad, you have a notepad next to you at your job at your station wherever you are and you know you're sitting there all day funny ideas are going to come to you write them down make sure you don't make sure you're diligent with writing shit down don't be the guy who goes oh i'll write that down later and you forget that's the thing that's that's the thing a lot

of people don't understand this when you become a stand-up comic you're not only becoming somebody who stands up on stage and tells jokes you're also becoming a writer somebody who has to sit down and write stuff you know what i mean and develop and that's the that's part of it you know what i mean develop develop develop but you got to get on stage also and get your reps in that's the only way this works it does there's no i don't know of any stand-up comic who straight out the gate was the of any stand-up comic who straight out the gate was the number one stand-up comic and got the sitcom you know what i mean yeah i don't know i don't know the person that did that and the other thing to do is write your write your

story you know you have a very unique story that's only you can tell okay you you you've got things that that will make it relatable to everybody but you no one can write the story about your life and your town working at, at your factory, um, and your friends and your wife. So consider, uh, what's the half hour comedy version of that, that you'd love to watch and all your friends would love to watch. Like what's maybe plan out what that would be. Like if you did get an, uh, uh, a hookup and as we might say, uh say in the basketball loving world. What would your, you know, what would your pitch be? If someone was like, Hey man, what's your,

what's your half hour sitcom or a single camera comedy show it's fucking locked and loaded and you pitch it and you're ready. So that's what you need to do is like, is you, you know, while you're working, I think you could, that's another thing you can do is simultaneously be, you know, planning all that out. I think we did it. You're welcome, Josh. Thank you.

You're welcome. You're welcome. And hey, my only request is when you make it big that you hire us. Done. Okay. You joke around, but I got friends that made it big and are producing big time movies. They don't call me no more. Right.

Like, making my own movies. I mean, I don't think I'll ever have a movie like Garden State. But I would love to just, you know, be doing what you're doing.
