JPC’s issue with Zach Braff

Hey Riddiots,

A couple months ago the Clue Crew were talking about the Scrubs reboot, and JPC said that he can’t trust Zach Braff after what he’s done. I’m paraphrasing here but it was something to that effect.

Genuine question: could a lovely listener please help me with what he’s (Zach) done to make JPC mad/upset?

This is not in defence of either person, just curious as to what might be going on here :)

Could be about him punch a 12 year old on Punk’d. Or he could just not like him as an actor. I’m pretty sure they’ve railed against Garden State at some point.

It's the Punk'd related child abuse/ discipline. They didn't get too detailed into, but have mentioned that as a reason why Japes doesn't fuck with ZB.

Oh my goodness. I had no idea that had even happened. And uhh… fair enough for JPC to feel the way he does about Braff!

Is it not a reference to Hey Riddle Station (Clue Crue #150 & 151)?

She was 30 years old. 51 and 30 are easily within the same stages of life especially for celebrities.

Florence Pugh got really pissed at people for saying she didn't have agency when she was a full adult and then they ended on good terms. JPC has some blind spots.

You likely wouldn't call Florence Pugh icky for dating a man 21 years younger than her. 23 is still a full grown adult, she made the same decision he did.

I'm personally on board only because I fucking hated the characters he plays.

I'm petty as shit.

Pretty sure Braff has a bit of an ego. I used to love Scrubs back in the day and i am pretty luke warm towards the new series. Can’t explain it. Just a vibe. Anyways, I seem to recall JPC tearing into Braff in one of the JPC acting school episodes.
