Absolutely, 100% adding "scandal noted" to my vernacular, and THANK YOU PETE for sharing an accessible and easy to understand shorthand to allow us to speak of works while acknowledging there's nuance that's not going to be addressed at the time.
47:50 Pete, that actually reminds me of an episode of West Wing where they're trying to keep a senator or two from being able to add a land use rider to strip mine some area in Montana (and honestly, just keep them from getting one over on them) and the solution is to turn the area into a national park. The Sorkinism of it is that episode STARTS with President Bartlett talking non-stop about national parks for the entire cold-opening. Absolutely the golden lasso being in the beginning. Wild.
59:00 Pete, to your point (which is well made) it makes me think of that TED talk where they said "The opposite of addiction isn't sobriety, it's connection." That human connection is such a driving power behind the positive change in your life where as you said the quitting drinking part almost becomes just a natural outcome of it. You have this power of love and support and self-love and change that (sometimes, not always) the choice to stop drinking is just obvious.
Wow the part at 57:30 on stopping alcohol really got to me. I've always liked Pete as a comedian but his way to express concepts in this podcast ( alcohol and art definition) really hit me on a logical and emotional level. Thanks for this. Two of the greatest individuals ever ❤
The chemistry between these two was beautiful and so nice to watch it was an uplifting interview from two lovely people just chatting about stuff had me smiling throughout.
I read the Dale Carnegie book 20 years ago. It’s from 1947! Its still on my bookshelf. As Zach was pulling up the title on his phone I yelled it out because I just knew it had to be that book he was referencing.
I was thinking about no coffee in the cups in movies the whole time! I’m so glad you brought it up, I comment on this everytime I watch a movie and there’s clearly nothing in their cups!!
I notice the little things. The first time I noticed the little thing in a movie was.when John Cusack uses two dimes and a nickel to make a phone call at a payphone instead of using a quarter. We notice! Keep up the great directing Zach! 🎬💯😎
Regarding emotional freedom techniques (EFT) at 30:17, I have over 20 years experience with the energy tapping books written by the pioneers...Roger Callahan, Gary Craig, Fred Gallo, and Roberta Temes. I also worked with a few of them. Twenty years ago the practitioner community new it worked but could not explain it scientifically. Now the science shows that the energy tapping "points" which are located in well established "energy channels" or meridians that are the basis for acupuncture and acupressure. Tapping these "energy tapping points" is believed to calm the amygdala. The amygdala is an important structure used to regulate the autonomic nervous system and emotions. My interest in this subject was for personal purposes, I'm not a practitioner. However I utilized these techniques on two close friends that were experiencing significant emotional turmoil/pain. The techniques were effective for both individuals in that they noticed an immediate significant reduction in their pain as subjectively rated on a 1 - 10 scale. One them was literally asked me if I had just hypnotized them. LOL. I believe both of the men were "quick responders" but I experienced mild to moderate success with the techniques.
This was a delight ! Love Fake Doctors Real Friends pod, and have been a fan of Pete's pod but had fallen off listening-though now that I can watch it here on YT I'm hoping for more of these (being able to see the conversations in addition to hearing them). "Scandal noted" LOL...good one.
My screen time is off the charts, for a couple years I always have either an audible or a podcast or a Ram Dass/Alan Watts/Trnce McKenna lecture. The podcasts are mostly all comedians. YMIW is the newest pod I’ve been listening to and had quickly become a favorite. I usually have to choose between comedians podcasts or spiritual content. The only other place I get both at once (not that Ram Dass isn’t funny) is the Duncan Trussell Family Hour. I almost never comment on anything. I love you Pete. 🫶🏻 Thanks for being you.
2 things. I love you both so much, zach for 20 years and pete only 10, please do a podcast together permanently, and number 2 zach please do neil brennans show, blocks. All my love to you dudes.
For some reason i laughed hardest at 1:48:37 "he salted it a little too much" idk why that got me the most, maybe just worn out from laughing for the past hour and a half!
I’ve been kinda surprised at how much I’ve enjoyed this episode. I wasn’t in a hurry to listen to it even though I’ve been a fan of Zach Braff. He went on TYSO (Rick Glassman’s podcast) and I kinda hated the way he acted on it. I could be remembering wrong but it felt like Zach was taking himself too seriously, like he was above Rick and was unwilling to goof around in the way, Rick kept trying to. But maybe he just doesn’t like Rick for some crazy reason haha
lovely banter guys, on the alcohol note... Never drink to feel better, only drink to feel even better. However respect to everyone that chooses not to drink at all. :)
Anyone who covers being human, will always seem ahead of their time. They're not. They're simply timeless because humans haven't changed. That's why Shakespeare is still relevant.
@@justinclayton42 he simply wasn’t in a good mood it seemed. He wasn’t happy, joking or playful on a very playful, bit-heavy, comedy based podcast. He also borderline insulted Rick a couple times, as well as outright refused to ‘play around’ with anything. It was awkward, not entertaining and he came across even a little snobby… He blew it IMO.
How about the set designer of Seinfeld and his VHS tape collection with two copies of, what is it, True Lies? It’s like they drove to Blockbuster and just scooped out of the 5 for $20 bin.
I love Pete and watch/listen to every podcast and watch his specials, shows, and movies, but I was surprised that he's gonna call his next tour, "Is This Anything," which is the name of Jerry Seinfeld's book from 2020. Not saying it's stealing or anything (and, of course, a book and a comedy tour are two very different things), but it is still a bit of an odd choice.
@@schizophrenic_AI I assume/hope maybe just an oversight. It is a ubiquitous thing that comedians say to each other when they're pitching new bits to one another so maybe it's so common that it's really not a big deal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Dudes, if you're human, and not woke, you can talk about any movie or show you want, no matter who made it, because we are smart enough to separate the person from their work.
I agree. I think it has more to do with being an entertainer and how society is so reactionary. It’s usually a vocal minority but if you are constantly searching for validation then you begin to self censor out of fear of “backlash” under the guise of caring about triggering people. But in reality most people can separate the art from the artist. If we couldn’t then we would be deprived of so much culture and entertainment that helps of get glimpses of moments in time.
Talking about the screen writing and concepts around three act structure is fascinating. At Adelaide university the classes around creative writing teach these things as rules you must follow and it’s a big bland bore for me and is a big part of why I have disassociated from writing for the last year along with my mental health stuff but yeah fuck that bland screenwriting lessons.

I would rather take MDMA and try to give a TED talk than have to explain to Morgan Freeman why we're doing more than one take.
What chemistry! And Zack, I love him. Garden state is so great, so tender and insightful.

Thanks for this.
Two of the greatest individuals ever ❤
This is a fantastic conversation and one of the podcast’s best episodes.
Two of my favorite people on the planet. Love you guys both so much. This was awesome
Really?.....
"Scandal noted" is my new favorite phrase.
Agreed!! I'm using that.
Speed agree!
I absolutely loved this conversation. Thank you, gentlemen. Also, Pete's impressions are fantastic.
What an absolute gift to the world this is. One of the great new friendships just formed in front of our eyes. ❤
The chemistry between these two was beautiful and so nice to watch it was an uplifting interview from two lovely people just chatting about stuff had me smiling throughout.
30 minutes in, i don't want it to end! Interesting topics, insights AND funny.
I read the Dale Carnegie book 20 years ago. It’s from 1947! Its still on my bookshelf. As Zach was pulling up the title on his phone I yelled it out because I just knew it had to be that book he was referencing.
Thank you for 2 hours of joy!
This episode goes on my top 10 pod episodes ever🎉 ¡Gracias!
This was a solid back and forth. Great stuff!
I was thinking about no coffee in the cups in movies the whole time! I’m so glad you brought it up, I comment on this everytime I watch a movie and there’s clearly nothing in their cups!!
I always considered these two to be related- I’m so glad I found this, my soul is very happy to see them interacting
I notice the little things. The first time I noticed the little thing in a movie was.when John Cusack uses two dimes and a nickel to make a phone call at a payphone instead of using a quarter. We notice! Keep up the great directing Zach! 🎬💯😎
Pete would have fit so perfectly as a recurring character on Scrubs.
For a time I thought these guys were the same person.
He looks more like his actual brother....
He would of worked soo well in the sensi episode
I could have watched another 2 hours. Best one I've seen (oh and JLD's one).
I LOVED this episode :) what a great convo
🥰😍❤️ please do this again!
WHAT? THIS IS ON RUclips NOW? WHAT?YES!
This was an absolute gem!
What a great episode. Loved it!
This conversation reminds of what I love about the movie The Trip, with Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon!
This was such an enjoyable conversation of what I’d assume were long long-time friends. Also, I have to go check out the hype of Glengarry Glen Ross.
scrubs means so much to me, love zach so much
This was so wonderful!
Z braffs yay! one of my favorite Hollywood actors

BEST! These 2 just vibe
I appreciate that Zach matches the pillow
Holy shit. "Crave kindness". That's it! Omg... Thanks for putting words to it!

Best episode yet!

Yes! New one dropped. That made my day
Zack is such a talented and cool dude.
2 things. I love you both so much, zach for 20 years and pete only 10, please do a podcast together permanently, and number 2 zach please do neil brennans show, blocks. All my love to you dudes.
I'd listen to a podcast of you guys talking about movie stuff all day.
We need to see you in Louisiana.
You and him can play real bros in a film!
Ive noticed the wet roads for as long as i can remember, thank you ZB lol i knew it
Quick request: Pete conducting every future interview in 1950's jargon.
Great Great Great.
need this more
This is literally me (Zach) and my little brother (Pete). If Tom Segura was there, my other brother would be represented. 😂
You have a brother who's a sociopathic murderer?
OMG I need to watch the paddington movies too. For the memes.
I love Zach Braff and Glengarry, so this episode Petey is playing the part of the cherry because everything else came up sundae fun-day!
Zach had to run, but...Chicken Run, starred Mel Gibson, scandal noted.
This gon' be good!!
Spee
Degre
risk
Reward
Knockindick
Id pay big $ for anything Jessica K.!
Great video! 🎉
I really do like hearing kindness. It's easy, it's breezy. It's all good stuff here.
For some reason i laughed hardest at 1:48:37 "he salted it a little too much" idk why that got me the most, maybe just worn out from laughing for the past hour and a half!
Tears and belly laughs. Zach describes "Scrubs" in 4 words. :-D
Nice Morgan!!!
I want a biopic of Morgan Freeman played by both Pete Holmes and Zach Braff, where they just switch them out like they do with twin babies.
It's so different experiencing Zach as the tame one after listening to Fake Docs, Real Friends for so long. Good stuff though, this is long overdue!
I could watch two more hours of this, more Pete Braff-isms, Zach Holmes-noted!
I’ve been kinda surprised at how much I’ve enjoyed this episode. I wasn’t in a hurry to listen to it even though I’ve been a fan of Zach Braff.

You may have already heard them, but there are 2 prior episodes of Zach on Pete’s podcast
I can’t believe Pete didn’t like the Brady Bunch movie! It’s his style. The lines are great and “goody goody” is kinda both their things.
lovely banter guys, on the alcohol note... Never drink to feel better, only drink to feel even better. However respect to everyone that chooses not to drink at all. :)
great ep
Love me a Glengarry Glen Ross-off!
"Pete needs to be funnier" lmao. Ruthless, Judd Apatow
It's really cool that Pete's older brother could join him for the show
zach braff i am your side kick!
Blinds/drapes are ALWAYS open when someone goes to sleep, or 1st wakes up
Pete just wanted to let you know you're amazing.
You could open a Pizza place. Pete's Piz'ahhh. You can keep that idea.
Anyone who covers being human, will always seem ahead of their time. They're not. They're simply timeless because humans haven't changed. That's why Shakespeare is still relevant.
Is Braff a highlander?
Just never seems to age!
Let’s see if he’s in a better mood than how he was on Take Your Shoes Off w/ Rick Glassman….
?
@@justinclayton42 he simply wasn’t in a good mood it seemed. He wasn’t happy, joking or playful on a very playful, bit-heavy, comedy based podcast. He also borderline insulted Rick a couple times, as well as outright refused to ‘play around’ with anything. It was awkward, not entertaining and he came across even a little snobby… He blew it IMO.
The thing that bothers me in movies is that coffee cups always look empty when they carry or take a sip. Pour some liquid in there! 😜
If you close your eyes during the "Morgan Freeman" portions of this episode it sounds like Ze Frank talking to himself
What is that city scape poster?
It's the background from Pete's old late night show on TBS, The Pete Holmes Show
ruclips.net/video/R2BA-ikHuPo/видео.html
I hate it when they make dinner in a movie, and then don't eat any of it 😠
or when they’re ordering a drink and they say “I’ll have a beer” lol. At least make up a name of a fake beer.
Goddamn this is a great podcast
"Ain't goin to Gobo..."
Please do a series of “what we h@te about movie conventions” for the good of most of us!
How about the set designer of Seinfeld and his VHS tape collection with two copies of, what is it, True Lies?
It’s like they drove to Blockbuster and just scooped out of the 5 for $20 bin.
I wrote a script were I hook up with Natalie Portman. Any chance I can get some pointers on getting it made?
Super funny that celebs podcasting gets massively lower views than regular people’s podcasts
❤️🔥
Why's Pete interviewing @JessicaKirsonComedy 's less famous little (step) brother?
6:27 get intoit

Interesting 🤔. Is it an intentional homage? If not… that’s a little strange.
@@schizophrenic_AI I assume/hope maybe just an oversight. It is a ubiquitous thing that comedians say to each other when they're pitching new bits to one another so maybe it's so common that it's really not a big deal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@kevinoneill2170 that makes sense
In the Big Book of AA, they talk about 3 levels of drinkers, occasional/recreational drinkers, hard drinkers, and true alcoholics.
Love you guys!
Has anyone considered that part of the problem with alcohol is the SUGAR?
pete’s adhd is strong with this interview. bruh, let your guest finish. that’s what she said.
omg, I wanted to watch this but Pete just never stops interrupting his guest with distracting non-related stuff or just sounds. Can't.
Did Pete ever sum up what her learned in Sorkin's Master Class?
Always hated the empty cup the most
Come to UK you silly pants.

Also, lamps, electrical lights are always on in the room, even if it's in the daytime hours Ugh

hey, pete, it’s actually Toy Story 3. sorry to be that guy. Toy Story 3 is perfect.
These guys look alike, and have same energy and mannerisms. Are they related?
It's literally two of the same guy
30 minutes into the podcast... waiting for the red pill.
I am no doctor, but I think there’s a very slight chance Pete has ADD.
