Together, this fabulous foursome recount Zach's daring and possibly life-threatening turn as Mary Poppins. They ponder the glory that would be Donald with hair.

It’s Turk’s birthday, but JD and Elliot are a little preoccupied by their significant others. What’s supposed to be a chill night with friends ends in betrayal, and somehow, a laugh. How do they always do that? On the podcast, Zach and Donald are joined by Doctor Dashana Trainor (Amanda Morrow) and Doctor Amara Hadi (Layla Mohammadi) to recount an episode heavily influenced by real-life events. Donald's love of all things steak, Zach's generous spirit, and the Scrubs cast's enduring friendships all take center stage in "My Best Friend's Birthday."   Special Thanks:  EP - Jordan Runtagh Vancouver Producer - James Howells Video Producer - Dylan Unger Director of Photography - Nate Magnuson Sound Mixer - Craig Stauffer Production Designer - Roger Fires Art Director - Kat Dom Set Decorator - Lizzi Pedersen Hair by - Amber Hassa Makeup by - Jennifer Powell Key Makeup Artist - Micah Gilbert Construction Coordinator - Geoff McVarish Paint Coordinator - Matt Ward Assistant Art Director - Jude Hujaij Graphic Design - Katie JohnsonSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode required a lot from the cast. Donald had to whip out two iconic impressions, and Zach worked on his voices. Ava Bunn teaches Zach and Donald about the chic new trend called Winnie the Poohing. Zach tries to convince everyone Ava's Chicken Little tattoo is not real. It's really not! Donald talks about, like, BC (before Clueless), while Zach revisits his early days, vacillating between performer and on-set assistant. Sarah details the difference between a 360 shower and an everything shower, plus the joys of a shower beverage. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
