00:00Hi Maggie, how are you?

00:02Maggie Wheeler, she played Janice on Friends.

00:06Oh, I love her!

00:08That was a terrible impression!

00:10She did it for me, it was really fun.

00:12Did she really?

00:14I love her!

00:16So, the Ellen special just came out.

00:18She was on the Ellen show.

00:20You're talking about the sitcom?

00:22The sitcom! She actually got fired from the Ellen show.

00:24Why?

00:26She didn't say exactly why, but she said...

00:28I was just the first to go.

00:30I wasn't the last to go.

00:32I asked her how she felt about it and she was like...

00:34After I wiped my tears and I licked my wounds,

00:36the Friends audition came through

00:38and I felt very free.

00:40That's why I think I was able to go

00:42and give the audition that I did.

00:44Do we think she still makes millions of dollars

00:46in mailbox money?

00:48No.

00:50That show is in syndication everywhere.

00:52It drives me crazy, I don't want to talk about it.

00:54You get 12 cents.

00:5612 cents? You get one penny.

00:58I've gotten a penny.

01:00I have that in my office.

01:02I've gotten a check for less than the cost of a stamp many times.

01:04What do you do with that money? Do you deposit it?

01:06I give it to Derek.

01:08I tried to cash it, but it didn't happen.

01:10Okay, bye!
