Butler and Crowder are back, and this time, they're joined by special guest Bryce to talk about a variety of topics. They discuss the first time Bryce peed on himself outside of the bathroom at work, how it happened, and what it means for the future of the podcast.
00:03:47.000Now they're soaked, my pants brand the whiz.
00:03:49.000So, Lois' jeans are just funny to me, I don't know why.
00:03:52.000Okay, we have a lot to get to, but look, before, and we're going to be taking on the Communist Chinese Party today, and by taking on I mean talking about them and getting everyone to delete their TikTok, because it is... I'm not sure if Eric Swalwell has ownership in it.
00:04:07.000I mean, he was getting hot tips from his, from his, uh, mistress slash Chinese spy.
00:04:12.000I don't know how that man is still allowed to represent office.
00:04:14.000Like, hey, what were you, you were having sex with a Chinese spy.
00:05:15.000It's not something we have to do, but it's a discussion we're having because a lot of people on the Pacific Coast are, you know, I mean, I just think they should move.
00:11:12.000NASA aerospace engineer Lonnie Johnson invented the super soaker, although Hasbro chose the wetter is better over his original slogan, who wants to see some wet-ass titties?
00:11:28.000And we are going to be talking about TikTok, and more importantly today, I wanted to, this is something that maybe isn't trending in the news, talk about the problem with the American healthcare system.
00:11:36.000I think that everyone agrees that it's broken, and certainly it's broken as far as how it helps the average American citizen.
00:11:43.000You know, during COVID, we weren't actually allowed to discuss measures that you could take to improve your health, because that was considered misinformation.
00:11:51.000If you would tell people diet and exercise, or using also supplements, meaning supplementary type of vitamins or medicines, you were banned.
00:12:01.000And we were never saying these were measures to replace pharmaceutical measures, but I think we have it exactly wrong.
00:12:06.000I think that drugs and pharmaceutical interventions should be seen as supplementary, and overall health and wellness should be seen as our focus here in the United States.
00:13:25.000So if you're having a hard time, and I was when I read this, because, you know, often I'll read articles preparing for this program and not watch the video because the videos, all these sites, they have all these autoplay ads.
00:14:32.000I mean, Peter, that's offensive to, let's just see, Koreans, women, gays, Elton John, midgets, and you have Peter Dinklage here complaining about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
00:14:44.000There wasn't even a reason for that midget to be in there.
00:14:57.000Yeah, well, he could've had his legs sawed off because he wants to identify as a little person as opposed to in the same way this guy pretends he's Korean.
00:17:03.000So this is what he actually said, I don't want to be, actually he said it like this, I don't want to be, get offended by this, but in Korea the average penis size is like 3.5 inches.
00:17:13.000This is what he said, and I get trolled all the time.
00:19:16.000It's Chat Thursday, where it gets very weird.
00:19:19.000But we actually did procure the rest of Ollie's John Thomas, and we've been granted permission by the London Estate to auction it off for charity.
00:19:29.000Because he's already gone through the procedure, and so now we'll actually be taking live callers who want to place their bids, and I believe we have one on the line.
00:21:27.000So, we have an update, but just for those who weren't following it, we talked about this yesterday.
00:21:31.000Monday night, a Black Lives Matter activist, Quintez Brown, he was arrested for attempting to shoot the Louisville mayor candidate.
00:21:40.000So, okay, in 2019, Brown was actually recognized by the Obama Foundation for his work in the community, and he got to meet President Obama!
00:22:01.000But you also wouldn't think that it would be socially acceptable for a man to go and, to spend $250,000 to go and Korea-face and, and shorten his penis.
00:25:21.000Is these racists who are like, you know, and I mean these like black supremacists, like the black Hebrew Israelites and the black, you know, the Louis Farrakhans, these people, this guy who went out, Quintez Brown, and shot this Jewish mayoral candidate.
00:25:31.000What sucks is, I feel bad that they'll never get their manifesto out.
00:25:36.000Because, you know, they're like, what happened?
00:25:37.000Well, I was shooting him because he was a greedy shekel hoarding and it's because, really, he was just upset and he wasn't raised properly.
00:25:44.000No, it's because he was Jewish and I hate the... and we have a problem with white supremacy.
00:27:50.000The Google Pixel, I guess that's still a thing, the Super Bowl ad, they were kind enough to let us know that camera phones, this is what, I mean, remember when Super Bowl ads used to be like the Budweiser Clydesdales?
00:34:53.000And it's not, in the study show, it's not based on what you like.
00:34:56.000Like, oh, hey, Pinterest, you know, it's like, you know, I'm looking at, like, glasses of wine, or I'm looking at, you know, knitting or homemade soap.
00:35:02.000And then all of a sudden, you're just seeing a Who study that says Taiwan isn't a thing.
00:36:00.000Now, they often don't, and so we have, hopefully, if Republicans, if conservatives do their
00:36:05.000job, the ability to call them to the mat because we have laws that they aren't following.
00:36:09.000They're not following fairly, or Section 230.
00:36:11.000That doesn't apply when you have a company like ByteDance that has irrefutable ties to the Communist Chinese Party.
00:36:18.000So in August, the Chinese government, they took a stake of, well, a few things.
00:36:22.000They took a board seat in Beijing, the ByteDance technology company.
00:36:26.000So there's now And there's also some... I can't confirm this, but again, all references are available at lateralthecutter.com.
00:36:31.000There's also some funding money that's exchanged hands, which is... Okay, we can't confirm all that, but look, a board seat at this with a Communist Chinese Party member, that's enough!
00:36:45.000Basically, when I read this article, they said they weren't going to have any direct control of the company because of the company's corporate structure, so nothing to see here.
00:36:52.000Yeah, because of the company's corporate structure.
00:36:54.000Wait, what's your corporate structure involve?
00:37:21.000It allows the Communist Chinese Party completely unfettered access to all of your personal information, and then they can control what you see.
00:37:30.000I don't know how this skirts any type of American legislative full lockout, and of course we know that Donald Trump was much tougher.
00:38:13.000He really did have a phenomenal take on this, so if you can't say it better, I want to point you to the original.
00:38:16.000I'd recommend you go and watch his full clip on this.
00:38:19.000That's why the TikTok thing was a big deal because it was a social media platform we didn't create.
00:38:24.000So it's like, oh, we don't want some other country's tech influencing us.
00:38:27.000Because because apparently, like in China, the way that the algorithm works, it doesn't reward people doing stupid dances and like playing with their dog.
00:38:36.000The algorithm is rewarding things that they want to see their youth do.
00:38:39.000So people doing cool engineering, people doing cool science in China.
00:38:45.000And you wanted to disrupt another country.
00:40:00.000So knowing all of this, while we're talking about TikTok, I want to start a trend with all of you.
00:40:05.000A lot of people have said, why haven't you gotten off YouTube yet?
00:40:07.000Look, nothing would make me happier than for all of you to join Mug Club, or at least Rumble, for people who don't want to pay for the additional hour show.
00:40:17.000If not enough of you join Mug Club, the show goes away.
00:40:19.000But you can at least watch the free show on Rumble.
00:40:21.000I would much rather see, like, when we do this show, we'll have anywhere from 70,000, 80,000 people live on YouTube, and like 15,000 on Rumble.
00:40:28.000I would love to see those numbers switch.
00:40:29.000I would love to see those numbers flip and more on Rumble, but we cannot force you to.
00:40:33.000So, we are on YouTube as long as is permissible, so that we can get the message out, of course.
00:40:38.000As long as we're not actually censoring what we're saying, we're still able to speak the truth relative, by YouTube standards.
00:40:45.000I mean, you can't quote the CDC, but other than that, yes, anything else.
00:40:54.000Um, but with TikTok, we've reached a point, and I've told you that if we reach this point with Facebook, with Twitter, with YouTube, we believe that we are no longer able to honestly communicate with you, we will leave.
00:41:30.000We keep getting shadow banned and just banned banned.
00:41:33.000So what we're going to do on air today, what I'm going to do is make a video right now that we are going to put on TikTok and uh going to I was going to manually delete TikTok was the plan like on my phone go look I mean and then I realized wait a second I don't need to do that
00:45:31.000He doesn't know how to take a joke, you just gotta let it roll off, otherwise people are gonna come back at you with Winnie the Pooh signs.
00:45:36.000Screw him, screw China, screw the Communist Chinese Party, screw TikTok, and screw Eric Swalwell for banging Chinese spots.
00:46:32.000You have these patchouli hippies who believe in nothing but alternative medicine, and rather than going through chemo or something, they're like, oh, use a cream.
00:46:42.000And then you have some other people right now, like Fauci and like the media, who are basically doing the bidding for pharmaceutical companies.
00:46:49.000I think most Americans, and you can tell me If this is how you feel about it, I think it's been something that hasn't been worded very effectively.
00:46:57.000In our country, we look at drugs and pharmaceuticals, and I'm going to give you some stats here to prove, to substantiate my point.
00:47:04.000We look at drugs and pharmaceuticals as the primary intervention, and we look at what matters most, health, fitness, diet, as, ironically, supplementary.
00:47:16.000Now, I'll do a whole other segment on the supplement industry and the scams that are taking place there.
00:47:20.000I think it should be the exact opposite.
00:47:22.000I think we need to have a system that encourages health fit, things like diet and exercise.
00:47:28.000You could eliminate over half the prescriptions that are being given out in this country.
00:47:32.000I don't think a doctor should give you a pill for a condition, if it's, for example, type 2 diabetes or high cholesterol or high blood pressure, until he says, you know what, go follow this exercise and diet protocol, then come back to me.
00:47:45.000Instead, they say, Here's a prescription, and you can ask them, well, what kind of effect would diet and exercise have?
00:47:50.000And they're like, well, you know, I don't really know.
00:48:18.000I think the way we fix it is drugs are supplementary.
00:48:23.000And health and overall wellness needs to be primary and needs to be encouraged and needs to be incentivized by the healthcare industry more so than dancing vaccines on Colbert.
00:48:32.000Well, I've noticed a bit more of it now.
00:48:34.000Like I had high cholesterol like four years ago.
00:48:36.000I'm sure it's back, but my doctor told me to do, you know, half hour a day of walking, running, whatever it was.
00:48:43.000And I, and I stuck to the regimen and I did drop my cholesterol, you know, and he did that before any medication, anything else.
00:48:49.000And I think there are more doctors doing that.
00:48:54.000But a lot are trying to do the natural... Well, like Dr. Choi, Austin's dad, who we've had on the show, that's the first thing he looks at.
00:49:01.000He goes, let me look at your blood work, let me look at your inflammation markers, let me look at your hormones, all these things before you.
00:49:05.000And he also can prescribe medications, and he does.
00:49:08.000And that's what a doctor should be able to do.
00:49:10.000And you were about to say something, Gerald.
00:49:11.000I was going to say, I had high blood pressure out of nowhere.
00:49:14.000I always had fantastic blood pressure.
00:49:16.000I didn't know where I had it and my wife was like, hey, we've got to get this under control.
00:49:19.000One month later of just going, oh, I didn't realize what I was eating was actually causing this.
00:49:23.000Oh, I thought you said you turned to your wife and said, yeah, why don't you give me a break?
00:49:29.000My wife, the nurse, she just said, yeah, you have to cut these certain things out.
00:50:46.000I mean, I mean, it should lower your cost, not only of the fact that you don't need to purchase prescriptions, but it should lower your overall health care costs.
00:50:55.000Maybe in less expensive doctor visits.
00:50:58.000Maybe, of course, in insurance plans that reward someone who's consistently healthy if you do consistent blood work.
00:51:03.000I don't care if it's a subway punch card, for crying out loud.
00:51:05.000My point is, that's how we should be incentivizing people in this country.
00:51:09.000And we've just gone through a period in time, with COVID, where more than ever, that was silenced.
00:51:14.000For example, if you said, hey, also taking things like Zinc quercetin, which now has clinically published clinical data, or also getting enough sunlight, also lowering your cholesterol, also dieting and exercising properly, can help regardless of whether you use a mask or vaccinate.
00:51:36.000And this is where science has become dogmatic, and it's become dogmatic in a way that harms people.
00:51:40.000And if you need more proof, this is where we say, hey, can we find common ground and we need a system that focuses on overall health?
00:51:46.000You would think so, except here's the Association of American Medical Colleges saying that the system is broken because, and we think common ground?
00:52:04.000So we've spent, I think, the last 10 years or so focused this health conversation on issues of health care, right?
00:52:10.000Insurance coverage, drug pricing, access, hugely important issues.
00:52:15.000But the science tells us that all of that work that happens in a doctor's office accounts for about 20% of what makes you healthy, what makes your communities healthy, and what makes the nation healthy.
00:52:25.000How do you choose where to start your beard?
00:52:27.000It has to do with the conditions where we live, But some commentators say medical schools should stick to the science, basic science, and should not teach social justice issues.
00:52:32.000So a patient goes to a doctor, patient has diabetes, doctor says take your medicine,
00:52:38.000get some exercise and eat more healthfully.
00:52:40.000So great, that's that 20% the clinical care.
00:52:43.000But some commentators say medical schools should stick to the science, basic science,
00:52:48.000and should not teach social justice issues.
00:52:59.000Of course we want our physicians to be competent and grounded in science, of course, and skilled.
00:53:05.000At the same time, again, their healthcare is provided in a context.
00:53:08.000And if the care team, it's not just physicians, it's physicians and nurses, community health workers, social workers, if that care team isn't providing care, understanding the lived experience of their patients, the healthcare won't work like it could.
00:53:22.000That's silly, and you're silly for saying it.
00:53:25.000Of course, I should take that, but they're lived experiences.
00:53:50.000As a matter of fact, I think the only food desert that might exist in this country is where white rural farmers live in places like Wyoming.
00:53:58.000You mean, so if I have high cholesterol and I'm black, I can't still eat cheeseburgers and steaks all the time and get my cholesterol down?
00:54:23.000But if you make a joke about sickle cell, people will be more offended and consider that racist as opposed to saying, well, we need to learn a lived experience.
00:54:54.000You're going to have to carve out a little bit more time to cook at home instead of grabbing something from McDonald's on the way into work.
00:59:19.000I don't think that that's unreasonable.
00:59:21.000People like to act as though there are just two camps.
00:59:23.000No, on television there are two camps because of the advertising, because of the dollars that of course are influential, to the point that Pfizer's influencing comedy.
00:59:31.000But most Americans that I meet, you know, they want to live a generally healthy lifestyle, but also believe that, you know, I'd like to do so without prescriptions.
01:02:34.000You might find some Samoan guy with perfect cholesterol because, you know, his great-grandfather was throwing someone off a cliff because they weren't native.
01:02:41.000But, as a general rule, obese individuals, okay, look, they're four times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.
01:02:48.000Okay, that increases heart disease by two to four times.
01:02:51.000Obese individuals, this is something we couldn't tell you, three times more likely to be hospitalized or die from COVID.
01:03:19.000So at least now we can say this safely.
01:03:21.000We're at a point where The interventions don't work that well.
01:03:27.000Can we say now, hey, the single most effective thing you can do to avoid COVID, particularly hospitalization or death, is lose weight and exercise.
01:04:00.000However, there was a time where everyone was being lumped in, and by time I mean today, where people are being lumped in with crazy hippies who are simply telling you to rub some kind of essential oil salve on your melanoma to fix it.
01:04:12.000We've been lumped in the same category when we say, look, more important than any vaccine, more important than any drug, more important than anything else you can do if you're worried about COVID is diet, exercise, get healthier.
01:04:25.000It will have a great, we would save more lives if doctors focused on that It wouldn't even be comparable.
01:04:41.000That was an easy win that we should have been able to take.
01:04:43.000And really, it comes back to this personal responsibility.
01:04:45.000All we're asking people to do is realize that their behavior has consequences across the board, whether it's talking about health or political beliefs.
01:04:52.000Or beating people up or, you know, reaching for a gun when a cop is telling you to put your hands up.
01:04:57.000Like, all of those behaviors have consequences.
01:04:59.000And we're saying, look, just Take responsibility.
01:05:01.000Don't go, I'm gonna eat how I'm gonna eat, and it's just genetic and whatever, and then go to the doctor and say, just give me pills to counteract what I'm doing, and then the pills that I need to take because of the side effects of the pills that I'm taking, and it just keeps multiplying out.
01:06:53.000The real issue in health has more to do with fat stigma.
01:06:59.000For example, if you tell somebody that they're fat and ugly and that they're going to get sick, well, That's certainly going to set up pretty stressful conditions for them and it is much more likely that they are going to get sick.
01:07:13.000And we're even able to trace all of these pathways.
01:07:15.000We can see in science the ways in which increased stigma increases a cortisol response in your body that then does damage and increases the tendency towards insulin resistance and diabetes.
01:07:30.000So, we can map all of this stuff out physiologically, and we can see the ways in which fat stigma causes some of the disease problems that we tend to blame on the weight itself.
01:07:44.000Okay, first off, I don't know what the stigma is on Slappy from Night of the Living Dummy Goosebumps acting as a doctor, but I think it needs to be a little more... Oh, man.
01:07:58.000And everything that lady just said, that dummy just said is bullshit, okay?
01:08:04.000And I understand what she's trying to say, and this is the problem with medical speak, when she's going, oh, you know what, I'm an activist.
01:08:09.000You know, if you make fun of someone who's fat, that can make them stressed, and that can make them release more cortisol, and that could hamper immune function, that could increase insulin resistance.
01:09:36.000Well, you know, it's been a long time.
01:09:37.000We had to make sure that we cross all our D's and dot our I's.
01:09:39.000The point is, I have no idea if Slappy there has ever actually been to medical school.
01:09:46.000Now, let me give you a couple other things here that, again, if we're going to look to find common ground... Benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
01:09:54.000Look, this should seem self-explanatory, but apparently someone didn't get the memo to these doctors.
01:10:00.000You have better cardiac function, even if you already have heart problems, even if you already have heart disease.
01:10:04.000If you start exercising now, you can actually still improve your heart function, you can actually still improve your health outcomes.
01:10:10.000You'll have more actual and more quantity and better functioning mitochondria, reversing type 2 diabetes.
01:10:16.000All-cause mortality becomes the lowest when you improve things like muscle mass, cardiorespiratory fitness, your leg strength, walking speed, grip strength.
01:11:29.000The last thing that I wanted to do after having titanium rods bolted to my chest and recovering without the use of opioids, by the way, Was go out and walk the dog.
01:12:06.000And then they go, oh, you're a thoracic surgeon, and they go, oh, you know what, your sternum's bent.
01:12:10.000I had to go to Mayo where they go, your sternum's going into your heart and your lung, and this is something they wouldn't have known, because they look at the body as an individual unit, and then look at it to write a prescription.
01:12:19.000As opposed to saying, look, we know overall, improve your meat vehicle.
01:12:27.000The amount of supplements that work, you can count on one hand to be clear, but there are some supplements out there that are useful.
01:12:34.000And we should see prescription intervention and drugs as secondary, as supplementary, not as primary.
01:12:41.000If we could all find some common ground on that, and that fat pride is silly and dangerous, Then maybe we could actually make some progress.
01:12:50.000Well, instead of doctors being chastised for looking at somebody who is morbidly obese and saying, hey, that's the problem.
01:12:56.000And we've seen video after video, we talked about this a little bit earlier, where people are saying, every time I go into the doctor, I hate it.
01:13:01.000And I'm like, well, yeah, it should be uncomfortable.
01:13:53.000Wait, Dr. Greenberg, does the N stand for naughty?
01:13:59.000So look, I want to hear from you guys if you have ever gone through something like this and how you've improved your health outcomes yourself.
01:14:06.000I believe in, you know, before and after lab work.
01:14:07.000You guys can send them in, post them if you want to publicly.
01:14:11.000This is one of those things, it doesn't need to be some person who's on steroids, right?
01:14:15.000Some person who's on steroids out there trying to sell some yoga pants on Instagram.
01:15:23.000For every single time an expert like Fauci or whoever it is, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, whoever is on television at that time, for every single time they have addressed COVID, you, for every single time you've addressed COVID, Fauci, and not specifically advocated for healthier diet and lifestyle, you have blood on your hands.
01:15:42.000You want to say that we have blood on our hands for not getting vaccinated, for not wearing a mask?
01:15:45.000If you haven't told people to decrease their BMI, to go out diet and exercise, and that that will be more effective In preventing death or hospitalization, then a vaccine, you have blood on your hands.
