JustPearlyThings - Modern Women Love Alternative Medicine (Call-in Show)

00:00:00.000 Most answered very quickly, no, because men are useless.

00:00:05.000 This headline from The Hill, it caught my eye.

00:00:09.000 Most young men are single, most young women are not.

00:00:12.000 Young men have fallen faster than any demographic in America for the last 40 years.

00:00:17.000 It's a different world now, like we don't need men the way that they used to.

00:00:20.000 Nobody needs men!

00:00:21.000 The future is female.

00:00:24.000 Men and women are drifting further apart, and society is crumbling because of it.

00:00:31.000 A fascinating debate has broken out about the value of marriage.

00:00:34.000 We've kind of got the trad con versus red pill thing.

00:00:36.000 This men's rights crowd that sometimes just goes too far the other way.

00:00:40.000 You need to stop acting like grown boys and infants and actually become men.

00:00:44.000 Marriage is a bond, and it's a sacred bond.

00:00:47.000 It's a machine designed to extract resources from you.

00:00:50.000 Now many of the red-pilled have taken the position that it's bad for men to get married.

00:00:55.000 Hannah Pearl Davis, or just pearly things.

00:00:58.000 One of the most controversial faces in all of the internet.

00:01:02.000 She goes on to say that marriage is a terrible deal for men.

00:01:05.000 Because if me and you were in a business contract, you would never sign a contract where I am paid to leave.

00:01:10.000 Gee, what could go wrong there?

00:01:12.000 74% or something of divorces are initiated by women.

00:01:16.000 Men have everything to lose, primarily their own children.

00:01:19.000 Men get killed by the courts and by divorce laws.

00:01:21.000 I had no idea that courts of family law were courts of equity, not courts of law.

00:01:26.000 Because in family court, you don't need evidence to accuse someone of abuse.

00:01:29.000 You need no evidence.

00:01:30.000 When you guys say get married young, a lot of these men don't know what they're signing up for,

00:01:34.000 and you're not going to be there when their entire life falls apart.

00:01:37.000 I interviewed them on the other side.

00:01:39.000 I didn't meet my son until he was 15 months old.

00:01:42.000 How much did you spend trying to get him back?

00:01:44.000 The legal fees alone was about $200,000.

00:01:46.000 Before you know it, you're homeless. You're literally just thrown out onto the street.

00:01:50.000 We absolutely reinforce bad behavior from women.

00:01:52.000 Wives are taught to leave their husbands, and then daughters grow up without their fathers.

00:01:56.000 Family is a foundation of society.

00:01:58.000 Every problem in society comes from single mother homes.

00:02:01.000 A lot of women will just chase this negative rabbit hole of happiness, endless happiness.

00:02:05.000 Feminism's biggest failure is it lies to women. We tell women to date as many guys as possible.

00:02:09.000 We tell them to put off family into marriage.

00:02:11.000 You are allowed to leave your perfect husband.

00:02:14.000 You are allowed to end a relationship with a really great boyfriend.

00:02:18.000 Oh, freeze your ex! Have an abortion!

00:02:20.000 What? You're evil!

00:02:21.000 I don't think there's anything else in life that we actually ever go into preparing to fail.

00:02:25.000 Right.

00:02:26.000 Like, if you have the mentality of this is going to go wrong and be pessimistic, naturally the outcome is going to be that it's going to fail anyway.

00:02:32.000 Yeah.

00:02:33.000 It's self-sabotage.

00:02:34.000 And that's the thing, like, women are so willing to leave marriages because they're not happy.

00:02:37.000 This is not about happiness.

00:02:39.000 The most important thing is the children.

00:02:41.000 And the problem is we have a modern society where it's me, me, me, my feelings, leave when I feel like it, instead of doing what's best for the kids.

00:02:50.000 This myth that we live in an age of male privilege, where's my male privilege?

00:02:54.000 They think, well, men have all the rights. They have all the power.

00:02:57.000 Privilege, patriarchal system that we have.

00:02:59.000 Why doesn't our society care about men's rights?

00:03:02.000 I have no friends, no wife, and no social life.

00:03:05.000 Men are alone in this situation. Men are homeless. Men are thinking about eating guns.

00:03:09.000 I've seen so many men on the brink of suicide, and they didn't do anything wrong.

00:03:14.000 How are you equal if the men are the ones that have to fight and die to defend the country?

00:03:19.000 The men are the ones that build and maintain all the infrastructure.

00:03:23.000 Women are helplessly dependent upon men.

00:03:26.000 The so-called deaths of despair from suicide, overdose to alcohol, three times higher among men than among women.

00:03:33.000 Culture is telling men, you are no good.

00:03:35.000 You've got to get your act together.

00:03:36.000 I think men have failed themselves.

00:03:38.000 What kind of a man are you?

00:03:39.000 What kind of a woman are you going to attract?

00:03:41.000 If men are in trouble, so are women.

00:03:43.000 Everybody knows this is a huge problem, but nobody wants to admit it.

00:03:47.000 Every single woman at the table said they wanted a man-

00:03:49.000 500k.

00:03:50.000 500k.

00:03:51.000 300k.

00:03:52.000 200k.

00:03:53.000 Am I crazy?

00:03:54.000 Everything is really set up against you to fail as a man.

00:03:55.000 If men make less than women, women don't want to marry them.

00:03:58.000 So you know who wants more economically and emotionally viable men? Women.

00:04:03.000 I don't want to be an independent woman anymore.

00:04:06.000 I don't want to be a strong, independent woman.

00:04:08.000 I'm over it.

00:04:09.000 When is it going to be my turn?

00:04:10.000 Where are we meeting the men that don't stop?

00:04:12.000 I can't keep having these same conversations.

00:04:15.000 The only simp here is you, Pearl.

00:04:16.000 You simp for men.

00:04:17.000 No, I think you simp for women.

00:04:18.000 She's a provocateur.

00:04:19.000 She says stupid stuff, but Pearl is right about this.

00:04:22.000 It's already happening.

00:04:23.000 It's just not out in the open yet.

00:04:24.000 Now it's just hookup culture is going to be our fairytale ending because men don't want

00:04:28.000 a wife and women can't find a husband.

00:04:30.000 The future, if everybody follows your path, is there is no future.

00:04:34.000 We go into population decline and our economy goes into decline.

00:04:38.000 Civilization will crumble.

00:04:40.000 The American story does not end well.

00:04:43.000 This is an existential crisis failing young men.

00:04:52.000 What is up, guys?

00:04:54.000 Welcome to another episode of Pearl Daily.

00:04:57.000 I am your host, Pearl.

00:04:58.000 And today we are going to be talking about modern women are addicted to holistic medicine.

00:05:06.000 But before we get in the topic today, I want to give a shout out to one of the simps on

00:05:15.000 the internet that really keeps me employed.

00:05:18.000 By the way, before I get into it, if you guys do want to donate to the divorce documentary,

00:05:23.000 the link is the second link in the description.

00:05:26.000 So feel free them.

00:05:27.000 We can't finish it till we get to roughly 100 K more at $26,000, which is awesome.

00:05:32.000 Thank you guys so much.

00:05:33.000 But we got to get to about 100 K in order to finish the documentary.

00:05:37.000 Okay.

00:05:38.000 So I want to give a shout out to a man on the internet that is keeping me employed.

00:05:48.000 Not everybody is capable of being a super simp.

00:05:53.000 Most men can't do it.

00:05:55.000 They're tired of lying to women 24-7.

00:05:59.000 They're tired of appeasing women.

00:06:01.000 Many men would rather just walk away from women altogether rather than simp.

00:06:07.000 But there's some men that say, no, I must simp.

00:06:12.000 I need to simp.

00:06:15.000 I need to get laid and I will be a super simp in order to get there.

00:06:22.000 So this man, this man has dedicated years of his life.

00:06:31.000 So I'm going to give you a little preface.

00:06:33.000 I do think that this man has a very intelligent, very smart guy.

00:06:38.000 But as you guys know, you can be very intelligent and smart and be a super simp.

00:06:43.000 That doesn't stop you from the simp.

00:06:46.000 You can't.

00:06:47.000 You could be the president of the United States like Obama and super simp, right?

00:06:53.000 It's not necessarily.

00:06:54.000 He's got great political takes at times, but he did get bamboozled.

00:07:01.000 He did.

00:07:02.000 He did.

00:07:03.000 Now, I'm not against men.

00:07:07.000 I'm going to take off my headphones for a second.

00:07:09.000 I'm not against men taking an unfavorable deal if that's what they want to do.

00:07:16.000 But what the difference is the super simps.

00:07:19.000 If a non-simp marries a 30 something year old woman, he says, bitch, first date you're putting out.

00:07:26.000 And you better earn my commitment.

00:07:32.000 You better like kiss my feet and do whatever I say, or I'm just going to go get a younger hotter.

00:07:38.000 I know a woman like that.

00:07:39.000 OK, she was in her mid thirties.

00:07:41.000 And when she met her now husband, I promise you, I really do promise you.

00:07:51.000 She knew this was her last chance and he knew it, too.

00:07:55.000 She was still hot.

00:07:56.000 Right.

00:07:57.000 But she wasn't innocent.

00:08:00.000 And she did whatever.

00:08:02.000 If he said jump, she said how high.

00:08:05.000 If he said, I want to do backdoor, she said when.

00:08:11.000 The difference is a super simp.

00:08:14.000 He finds a used woman and he worships her.

00:08:19.000 And what he does, many times these men, they tend to profit off of women.

00:08:27.000 And you see this with conservative men.

00:08:29.000 You know, it would be a lot more profitable for me.

00:08:34.000 If I just came out and I said, ladies, it's your fault that he dumped you.

00:08:43.000 Oh, sorry.

00:08:44.000 Sorry.

00:08:45.000 Ladies.

00:08:46.000 He just didn't appreciate you.

00:08:49.000 Don't let a man determine your worth.

00:08:52.000 Not.

00:08:54.000 Instead, I say lose weight.

00:08:55.000 You were probably annoying.

00:08:56.000 Figure out what it was.

00:08:57.000 Try to be less next time and maybe you won't get pumped and dumped.

00:09:00.000 Good luck out there, chicas.

00:09:02.000 We fought for this.

00:09:03.000 So as you guys know, Charlie Kirk is a super simp.

00:09:08.000 He really is.

00:09:09.000 And Charlie Kirk married a woman at about 31, 32 years old,

00:09:14.000 who is a pageant queen who flew around the world doing pageanty stuff.

00:09:20.000 Now, I don't know if she's pure or innocent.

00:09:23.000 Okay.

00:09:24.000 She very well could have been a virgin when she met Charlie.

00:09:27.000 But I got to do the math here.

00:09:30.000 I got to do the math.

00:09:32.000 And the reason I say this is because I want you guys to do the math too.

00:09:35.000 The average age of first losing your virginity is 16.

00:09:41.000 That's on average.

00:09:42.000 And remember, by 25, only like 2% of women are still virgins.

00:09:47.000 Eric says, just ringing.

00:09:48.000 No idea what the stream is about.

00:09:50.000 But here's a super chat.

00:09:51.000 Thank you, Eric.

00:09:52.000 What a nice guy.

00:09:53.000 So, sorry, let's say in good faith she waited until she was 21.

00:10:02.000 And we would agree women are going to pound town freshman year,

00:10:06.000 sophomore year, junior year, senior year.

00:10:08.000 21-year-old virgin, she's probably fat or ugly or just so socially awkward that cooked.

00:10:14.000 But, fine, let's say, let's say that she was a virgin until 21.

00:10:22.000 What were you doing for a decade?

00:10:24.000 That's 10 years.

00:10:26.000 Let's say, okay, let's do the math.

00:10:29.000 Let's say for 10 years you had two-year boyfriends and you had a 100% commitment rate.

00:10:36.000 Which, let's just be like accurate, unless you're like, she was a pageant queen.

00:10:43.000 But remember, if a guy can get her as a pageant queen, he can get other pageant queens.

00:10:48.000 So, the women that those, like, level of attractiveness are dealing, like the women those men are dealing with,

00:10:54.000 the beauty is common, right?

00:10:56.000 Because, anyway, so, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

00:11:02.000 So, that's five, at least.

00:11:04.000 At least.

00:11:05.000 Nobody's pure if you've gotten your back blown out by five people.

00:11:09.000 But, the thing is, with Charlie and his wife, they've got to build the brand.

00:11:14.000 And so, they had this women's leadership summit.

00:11:18.000 Now, I don't know why conservative men are having, like, why do we want women to lead?

00:11:28.000 Like, what would be the purpose?

00:11:31.000 But, essentially, women's leadership summits are just sort of play pretend.

00:11:39.000 And, I saw this clip, and I just got to thank Charlie.

00:11:43.000 Thank you for keeping me employed.

00:11:48.000 So, we're going to watch a clip of Charlie and his wife.

00:11:52.000 Now, remember, again, if I, if you're going to sell me that you're, you are holy and pure.

00:11:59.000 I expect, and I'm not saying that women shouldn't use Botox or all that stuff.

00:12:04.000 I'm really not.

00:12:05.000 I'm not against it.

00:12:06.000 I'm not for it.

00:12:07.000 I don't care.

00:12:08.000 But, you just have this idea that if there's, like, a pure, conservative, godly woman,

00:12:15.000 that she's not dressed like an e-thought.

00:12:19.000 Do you know what I mean?

00:12:20.000 Like, I just don't like the virtue signaling purity.

00:12:25.000 Like, with the fake hair, fake lips, fake Botox.

00:12:31.000 You know, I don't really care.

00:12:34.000 But, okay.

00:12:36.000 Anyway, so, I'm going to react to these clips.

00:12:39.000 And we're going to get into the topic today.

00:12:40.000 But, I just saw these on Twitter before the show, and it was too good.

00:12:43.000 How do you tell young ladies to navigate the pressures of hookup culture on a college campus?

00:12:50.000 Where they feel pressured that if they don't get into, um,

00:12:56.000 Yeah, so, now he's saying, again, remember, the conservatives are super simps.

00:13:01.000 So, Charlie, at this age, I don't, he's most likely had women hunt him down trying to get him to cheat on his wife.

00:13:09.000 So, I don't understand why.

00:13:12.000 I'm just assuming, right?

00:13:14.000 I mean, he's a guy on stage.

00:13:15.000 Women love men with microphones.

00:13:18.000 Um, so, I just can't imagine he hasn't experienced this yet.

00:13:23.000 But women are the apex predators.

00:13:26.000 You met 18-year-old women?

00:13:28.000 They're giving it out to everybody.

00:13:30.000 They're like, you get some coochie.

00:13:31.000 You get some coochie.

00:13:32.000 You know, it's not till women take some L's when they're more stingy with it.

00:13:37.000 But when they get to a college campus, they're ready to go.

00:13:41.000 So, again, they're framing this as, um, the women are pressured.

00:13:48.000 When the women are the ones throwing it, you know?

00:13:51.000 To say sexual situations with a male counterpart, then they will not be able to find a boyfriend or a husband.

00:13:58.000 He's not meant to be with you.

00:14:00.000 Like, he needs to honor your purity.

00:14:03.000 What purity?

00:14:06.000 What purity are women bringing?

00:14:08.000 Erica, you didn't bring fucking purity.

00:14:10.000 This is what, I'm so tired of these conservatives making me pretend I have to believe this.

00:14:19.000 Just because your simp husbands fell for that BS, it doesn't mean I will.

00:14:24.000 What purity are you selling when I spot Botox, I spot fake hair, I spot a very bad spray tan?

00:14:34.000 Do you know what I mean?

00:14:36.000 You're telling me you weren't throwing a, come on.

00:14:39.000 For your husband.

00:14:41.000 That's simple.

00:14:43.000 Alright, where did you go to college, man?

00:14:45.000 Where did you go to college?

00:14:47.000 Erica, uh, Kirk went to college where?

00:14:54.000 Oh my gosh!

00:14:59.000 Oh my gosh!

00:15:02.000 I just, fuck you!

00:15:05.000 Oh my, oh my gosh.

00:15:08.000 Oh, I'm so mad.

00:15:12.000 I'm so mad right now.

00:15:14.000 You were about to lecture me on purity.

00:15:17.000 When you went to Arizona State University?

00:15:22.000 I am pissed!

00:15:23.000 I am pissed!

00:15:25.000 I am pissed!

00:15:26.000 Shut the fuck up!

00:15:27.000 Oh my gosh!

00:15:28.000 How do you-

00:15:29.000 Bruh.

00:15:30.000 Here's another one.

00:15:31.000 blaze a trail of glory.

00:15:32.000 So my mission for all of you after you leave here, please go confuse the culture.

00:15:38.000 confuse the crap out of it.

00:15:39.000 I don't even know if I'm allowed to say that, but confuse them.

00:15:44.000 Go and confuse them.

00:15:45.000 Go and confuse them.

00:15:47.000 Do not conform to it.

00:15:48.000 Let them stare at you.

00:15:49.000 Let them write the meanest Instagram comments.

00:15:52.000 Let them wonder.

00:15:53.000 Let them whisper.

00:15:54.000 And while doing all of that, cause that's just noise, build your family.

00:16:02.000 Let them know who they are.

00:16:03.000 Let them know who they are.

00:16:04.000 Let me, what I'm good with you.

00:16:05.000 Let them know who they are.

00:16:07.000 Let them know who they are.

00:16:08.000 do not conform to it. Let them stare at you. Let them write the meanest Instagram comments.

00:16:15.920 Let them wonder. Let them whisper. And while they're doing all of that, because that's just

00:16:20.720 noise, build your family. Go raise a family. Go build a life of holy defiance. You didn't do,

00:16:30.720 you met Charlie at 32, Erica. And you went to Arizona State University. And if I Google this

00:16:39.360 woman, hold on, let me see what pictures come up. I know there's one of her in like a half-naked

00:16:46.960 bikini. I've seen it before. If they got rid of it, these people have money. They might have

00:16:52.720 scrubbed it by now, but I have a screenshot somewhere. Erica Kirk. What is it? Pageant.

00:17:00.720 But, oh yeah. See, do you guys not think that I can Google this stuff? Like you're giving

00:17:09.280 me a lecture on purity? Truly? Really? Um, come on. Can we just, can we just stop with the-

00:17:28.720 Go love your husband. Go love your babies. Go teach your children how to blaze a trail

00:17:36.280 of glory. Go lead in truth and go be the light. You don't have time for their noise. Don't seek

00:17:42.960 their applause. It's not even worth it. Not even worth it. Go fulfill your purpose. You just

00:17:49.740 need Jesus. That's all you need. So while the world is watching, heaven's cheering for you.

00:17:58.300 Cheering you on. Because just like the women before you, that blueprint, God is within you

00:18:06.820 and you will not fail. Yeah. Okay. Now the Israel stuff. Oh, here's another one where

00:18:18.740 they're selling. Whenever you feel that. Now it's again, conservative selling women. They're

00:18:24.840 going to be young forever. Here we go. Oh no. Hold on. You need to go viral for this on Instagram.

00:18:35.860 You're falling behind. Whenever you feel that, I want you to say out loud, I don't care if you're

00:18:41.200 looking at a mirror. I don't care if you're writing it down. I want you to say, I am not behind. I am

00:18:46.420 becoming. Do not feel like you're running out of time. The enemy loves to make you feel like you're

00:18:51.800 running out of time, but you can always have a career. It is not going anywhere. LLCs will

00:18:58.420 always be able to be created, but children. You did the same thing. You waited because you

00:19:07.040 wanted to be a model. I don't blame you. You got to fly over the world. You got to go party

00:19:12.160 at ASU. I don't blame you, Chica, but can we just stop pretending this isn't what it is?

00:19:16.640 Family, your husband, marriages. That is not a renewable resource.

00:19:23.260 That is not. Don't delay the eternal for temporary and do not sacrifice the sacred for the secular.

00:19:31.580 It is not worth it.

00:19:34.480 Okay. I'm going to react to these full things this week.

00:19:37.320 They do love this alternative meds, astrology, yoga, after being in Eastern Europe and London

00:19:42.900 for a bit of time. Spiritual is just a bit much for me. Um, then we got Alex Clark, another

00:19:50.820 e-thought, whatever. Okay. I'm going to, well, I'm going to react to a lot of these because this

00:19:57.420 is just too much. Thank you, Charlie, for keeping me employed. Thank you. I do appreciate it.

00:20:03.900 Okay. So welcome to another episode. Today, we're going to get into the actual topic.

00:20:14.260 Modern women are prideful, selfish, so much so that nobody can tell a woman anything,

00:20:24.720 not their husbands, not their family members, not doctors. And this pride has led many women

00:20:35.580 to honestly believe that they know better than the experts, especially when it comes to medicine

00:20:42.160 and the healthcare field. Too many women are forgoing the advice of conventional medical

00:20:48.320 practitioners to practice some kind of alternative medicine to the detriment of themselves and their

00:20:54.460 children. Crazy diets, yoga, herbs, teas, acupuncture, and strange spiritual practices are ways that

00:21:04.360 modern women avoid treatment. If you go on social media, there are way too many influencers pushing

00:21:12.560 this garbage to women, especially mothers. Nothing gets me more mad than seeing a young woman pass away

00:21:21.460 from something that could have been treated, but if they just would have went to a real doctor and got

00:21:27.200 real treatment. This is a problem that is only getting worse, unfortunately. How many women and

00:21:34.800 children are going to have to pass away until something is done about this? So Amanda Lewis, a TV

00:21:44.860 personality, says that cancer has spread after she decided to keep her tumor. The former talk show host

00:21:55.800 has reflected on her decision to go against her doctor's recommendations for a mastectomy after her

00:22:02.060 2020 breast cancer diagnosis. I thought I had this. Former MTV Ananda Lewis has shared that breast cancer

00:22:12.020 has metastasized and she is now in stage four. Lewis, 51, previously shared that she had been diagnosed with

00:22:20.700 stage three breast cancer in a 2020 Instagram post, saying that she'd refused manograms for years due to fear

00:22:29.940 of radiation exposure. But during a roundtable discussion on cancer with CNN's Stephanie Ellum and CNN's anchor Sarah

00:22:39.400 Sidner, who was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer early this year, Lewis shared that she went against

00:22:47.180 her doctor's recommendations for a double mastectomy following her diagnosis. My first plan was to get the

00:22:53.280 excessive toxins out of my body. I felt like my body is intelligent, and I know that to be true. Our bodies

00:23:01.740 are brilliantly made, Lewis explains. I decided to keep my tumor tumor and try to work it out of my body a

00:23:08.940 different way, she shared. Looking back on that, you know, I go, you know what, maybe I should have. So this is her.

00:23:15.960 Elam explains in a voiceover that Lewis pursued homeopathic remedies as well as medication and

00:23:25.060 radiation and better sleep and diet. While she says Lewis improved for a while, last year the MTV alum

00:23:31.260 discovered her cancer had spread. My lymph system really flared up, Lewis said. It was the first time

00:23:37.880 I ever had a conversation with death because I felt like this is how it is. I was just like fudge,

00:23:45.980 man. I really thought I had this. I was frustrated. I was a little angry at myself. And I said, man,

00:23:50.660 listen, I know you're coming for me at some point, and I don't want it to be now. And if you could just

00:23:54.920 wait, I promise when you do come, I'm going to make it fun for you. I literally had that conversation

00:24:00.560 laying in my bed. I couldn't get out of bed for like eight weeks. Sidner shared that her diagnosis

00:24:05.860 made her seek more joy in life while Lewis reflected on her decision not to pursue the

00:24:11.100 double mastectomy saying my quality of life is very important to me. I want to want to be here.

00:24:17.580 So I had to do it in a certain way for me. Meanwhile, my 51 year old CNN anchor who underwent a double

00:24:24.240 mastectomy in May said that her cancer diagnosis made her realize I want to be here. I want to thrive

00:24:29.080 in a way I've never thrived before. As Elam shared an Instagram post about their conversion,

00:24:35.600 I'm forever grateful for their willingness to have this conversation to fully open up for the

00:24:41.400 world. If we could just get one woman to get their mammogram because of this conversation, that's a

00:24:46.140 success. I want everyone to live long, healthy lives. So there it is. She likely could have survived

00:24:56.180 this diagnosis. But instead, she chose to do this wacky voodoo stuff. And now she died. Here we got

00:25:08.000 another article talking about her death. Amanda Lewis, former MTV and BET host who publicly shared her

00:25:15.520 breast cancer journey dies. Ananda Lewis, the former MTV and BET host who became a beloved television

00:25:23.180 personality in the 1990s with her warmth and authenticity has died. She was 51. Her sister

00:25:29.780 confirmed Lewis' death in a Facebook post Wednesday. Lewis had been battling breast cancer. She's free

00:25:35.860 and in his heavenly arms, Emery wrote. Lord rest her soul. Lewis, a San Diego, can you guys stop making

00:25:43.280 this full screen? Just make it like half. Made a name for herself on hosts on BET, a team summit,

00:25:52.620 which tackled issues facing youth and featured community leaders, entertainers, and politicians.

00:25:59.080 She landed big interviews with Kobe Bryant, Tupac Shakur, and Louis Farrakhan, and the first lady,

00:26:06.320 Hillary Clinton, which earned her an NAACP image award. After a few seasons, Lewis took her talents

00:26:14.720 over to MTV in 1977. She was a host and VJ on MTV Live, Hot Zone, and Total Request Live, a daily

00:26:23.540 top 10 video countdown show. Lewis told the Associated Press that she felt some backlash after moving from

00:26:32.140 BET to MTV. I wouldn't say in a strong way because I think most people who are my fan base at Teen

00:26:38.280 Summit understand that growth is necessary, she said. One of the main things we dealt with on a

00:26:43.200 consistent basis was the underlying themes of the show that you've got to get out there and live your

00:26:48.060 life. Okay, so I mean this kind of just reiterates the same story. Lewis said doctors recommended a

00:26:55.880 double mastectomy, but she opted for alternative methods. She eventually realized this was the wrong

00:27:00.080 measure, but became an advocate for the up-to-date manogram checkups. Okay, we got another, a woman

00:27:11.980 who wants to stop chemo for her child and give the child alternative treatment. So not only do women

00:27:19.900 push these crazy alternative medicine things on themselves, right, put themselves in danger, they

00:27:28.040 also put this on their children. Jax is investigating your rights following a call from a local mother

00:27:36.220 with a dying daughter. I'm Tanika Hughes. I'm John Bachman. She says DCF is threatening to take her

00:27:41.460 daughter away from her because she wants to discontinue chemo and use natural remedies for her

00:27:47.260 child. Action News Jax, Ben Becker is live at DCF. Ben, you're pressing DCF for answers and looking

00:27:52.760 into the rights that parents have. John, that's right. You know, parents often believe they know

00:27:59.720 what's best for their families, and that's been a big crux today in this discussion I've been having

00:28:04.340 with this family and also with DCF, but often DCF has different ideas. Breakfast brings the Cleveland

00:28:12.020 family together, but they worry cancer and DCF will tear them apart. When you look at these pictures,

00:28:17.260 what goes through your mind? Sadness. Like, I want to be able to help her. Jessica and Mike Cleveland's

00:28:22.740 four-year-old daughter, Michaela, has stage four cancer. She was diagnosed with Wilms tumor in June of

00:28:28.160 2018, the most common type of kidney cancer in children. The tumor was removed after a long hospital

00:28:33.620 stay, but the cancer came back in March of 2019. What was it like when you first found out that she had

00:28:39.440 this? I was shocked. I was devastated. I didn't even know what to think or how to feel. Michaela has been

00:28:44.880 through multiple rounds of chemotherapy and radiation, but her mother wants to seek a natural

00:28:49.100 remedy. It's because her prognosis isn't as good this time. When she told doctors no more chemo,

00:28:54.240 she received a visit from a DCF caseworker. She said that she is being advised to tell me that if I

00:29:00.900 don't take my child to chemo, that they're going to take all my children away from me. Not getting the

00:29:06.020 chemo could fall under DCF's definition of neglect. According to DCF, neglect includes when a child is

00:29:11.220 deprived of, among other things, medical treatment. You're the parent of the child. But in today's

00:29:17.180 world, you don't own the child. Dale Carson is Action News Jack's law and safety expert. He says

00:29:21.520 DCF has broad authority. In some cases, it doesn't even need a court order, which puts parents in a

00:29:26.320 difficult spot. It's a hard choice for a parent to make, and I'm not so sure everyone agrees that

00:29:33.660 the Department of Children and Family Services knows best. I went to DCF, and later they sent me a

00:29:39.740 statement that reads, there are multiple factors involved when it comes to making decisions on

00:29:44.120 whether or not to put children into protective custody. As for Cleveland, what's your message

00:29:48.600 to DCF? They need to mind their business unless somebody is actually being harmed, because she's

00:29:53.160 not being harmed in any way. All right, John, so I spoke with a local. No, look, I think that's a tricky.

00:30:00.760 When does the government pick if they intervene with a child? I don't know. My point is more,

00:30:10.000 these crazy women push these alternative treatments onto their children, and what tends to happen

00:30:16.880 is the kids are the ones who suffer. All right, here's another.

00:30:21.600 Natural health doctor. Basically, a holistic doctor that offers me an alternative way of supporting

00:30:38.660 whatever medical issues I'm having within my organism so that I can avoid getting sick and

00:30:43.140 going to the doctor. And basically what she does is she does a whole body scan. It's actually really

00:30:49.020 cool. It's kind of wild. So are you guys going to want to pay for these full body scans? Yep.

00:30:54.960 This is how it's done. It is so extremely cool. She can just tell everything that is wrong with you

00:31:00.320 at any point of your body. If you're having any ailment, any issue, she can offer you an alternative

00:31:06.540 way to heal it through supplements and other methods. So I've been doing that. And guys,

00:31:16.340 every single time I leave her office, I have like a whole bag that weighs like five pounds full of stuff.

00:31:29.780 Let me know if you guys want to know everything that I have to take. I will gladly share. But it's just

00:31:36.240 wild. And she gives you a whole schedule of when to take it. And honestly, a lot of my issues have gotten

00:31:44.980 so much better. But then, you know, other ones will pop up. So I'm constantly having to adjust my

00:31:52.280 supplement intake and what I'm taking. But honestly, just ordering whatever you want off of Amazon,

00:32:01.000 because you read that it's good for your health or for a certain condition doesn't necessarily mean

00:32:05.860 that it's going to help you. You need like a certain dose of it for whatever is wrong with you,

00:32:11.980 or you need a certain brand or a certain kind because they're not all made the same. So before you say,

00:32:20.280 you know, supplements or vitamins don't work, maybe you are just taking them incorrectly.

00:32:25.280 You know, it's another one. I don't really buy this organic BS. They just convince us that everything's wrong.

00:32:31.900 Like you need organic food. Do I? Oh, the pesticides are going to kill you. Are they? Truly?

00:32:42.340 Okay, woman says that there are natural substitutes for antidepressants.

00:32:48.000 This one I kind of agree with. I got to agree. I don't know about the anti. Okay, hold on.

00:32:55.740 Antidepressants. I was personally on Prozac for a year and I need to disclaim that if you are on

00:33:13.060 antidepressants and that's working for you, that's amazing. I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to the

00:33:18.820 people that are on antidepressants and they feel like a zombie and you feel like your soul has left

00:33:23.820 your body because that was me. Okay, omega-3s are amazing and have proven to be equally as effective

00:33:30.960 as antidepressants. When I'm saying omega-3s, I'm talking salmon. I'm talking cod liver oil. I'm

00:33:35.660 talking fish oil pills. Saffron has proven to be equally as effective as antidepressants.

00:33:41.880 Exercise has proven to be equally as effective as antidepressants. Going on an anti-inflammatory

00:33:47.180 diet and healing your gut microbiome has proven to be equally as effective as antidepressants.

00:33:51.720 Please take everything I say with a grain of salt. Talk to a naturopath, a holistic healer,

00:33:55.860 someone who can work with you on an individual level. These holistic healers have to be making

00:34:00.520 so much money. I bet they are just raking in the dough, just convincing women that there's

00:34:07.060 there's just something wrong with them.

00:34:11.000 Okay. I know it's not 34 years old. There's no doubt in my mind that I have it. Hold on. Sorry.

00:34:24.800 You know, Doug MPA, you said this mouse, the same thing happens.

00:34:29.340 Okay. I have ADHD. I was diagnosed when I was 34 years old. There's no doubt in my mind that I have

00:34:33.380 Hey, I'm also a mom with ADHD, late diagnosed too. I've been on Vyvanse and Vyvanse worked the best

00:34:40.420 for me. Instead, there's this. When I was in college, they just gave Vyvanse out to everybody.

00:34:47.100 It's a supplement, but it worked better for me than literally any other ADHD medication I've ever

00:34:53.820 tried. And it doesn't make me feel anxious. It doesn't make me feel like I'm going to jump out

00:34:58.200 of my skin or more irritable or lose my hair. You should really check it out. I highly recommend

00:35:04.560 them. Okay. Let's see. What's next? There are alternative treatment methods.

00:35:18.940 I was diagnosed when I was 34 years old. There's no doubt in my mind that I have it.

00:35:22.720 Hey, I'm also a mom with ADHD. I played this one. Okay. Let me see.

00:35:28.200 Okay. Well, I think that one is just the same one link twice.

00:35:35.320 Okay, guys. So we're going to do a call in show. We're going to put the link in the chat.

00:35:39.980 Did your mom ever try some other treatment for a condition you had when you were young,

00:35:46.020 when she should have taken you to hospitals? Have you ever dated a woman that was into alternative

00:35:51.480 medicines? And what was the craziest thing you saw her do or take for a treatment? Or did you ever have

00:35:57.180 a mother that just always thought she was sick and something was wrong with her?

00:36:00.940 Um, like you saw that one woman a couple of years ago that she, um, what did she do? Her mom like put her in a wheelchair

00:36:15.540 and would give her chemo treatments and she wasn't even sick.

00:36:19.720 By the way, I'm not against alternative treatments or whatever sometimes, but it's just when they're

00:36:27.780 doing that instead of getting chemo. When I was in college, fine ales, magic mushrooms,

00:36:34.460 and LSD cured just about everything. Well, if you want to try it, how did it work for you? I'm not

00:36:41.420 here to say one way or the other. I'm here to get you guys' opinion. So call into the show. Um, a couple

00:36:47.960 things, if you are going to call in, please get to the point. So if we have further questions, we will

00:36:55.800 ask you, but try to keep it under a minute when you do your initial beginning, middle, and end. Um,

00:37:01.660 I may ask you where you're from, something like that, but then we're going to get into it.

00:37:05.460 Please don't come on and ask me what the topic is. I'm going to get annoyed and just kick you.

00:37:11.780 We're really trying to have a good quality call show where we get the information from the people.

00:37:18.060 Um, make sure YouTube is not playing in the background and please stick to the topic. If

00:37:23.360 you are a fan, I really do appreciate you watching and I'm very grateful, but, um, there's a time and

00:37:30.040 a place. So if you love watching me forever, that's really, thank you again. But for the show,

00:37:35.380 I'm just trying to keep it like on topic. So please, that's what I'm asking you guys to

00:37:41.760 do. Doug MPA, are you on the line? I am here. How's it going? Good. How are you? I'm fantastic.

00:37:48.840 This is a great topic. So did your mom always think she was sick? Was she into the holistic

00:37:54.240 stuff? What was it? So, so, um, someone I know went off to college and moved in with this coworker

00:38:03.700 of theirs. And first off, this woman believed in that whole thing. So she moved into a room

00:38:12.080 into this person's house. Right. And this woman believed in like feng shui where, um, you put

00:38:18.780 different place, you put things in different places in your house to direct like energy in

00:38:23.200 your house. So the person that my friend was renting from hired a feng shui designer, like

00:38:32.200 interior designer, where they move all your furniture around based upon the energy in your

00:38:36.500 house. And this person put a book, a bookcase in front, like in the pathway in front of the

00:38:44.100 front door. It was crazy. And so anyway, so it started with that. Then she went to this holistic

00:38:51.940 healer person that said, if you, they gave this woman some bark from this tree and told

00:39:00.400 her to cut off some of her own hair and grill it in a pan and then eat some of it. So it

00:39:09.620 was, so she put oil in a pan, this bark and then part of her own hair and it was, it was

00:39:17.320 trying to eat it. And so for weeks her house, it smelled like burnt hair. You know how bad

00:39:23.240 burnt house, burnt hair smells.

00:39:24.780 I would love to be a holistic medicine person. I could just say anything and get paid. That's

00:39:29.840 awesome.

00:39:30.780 Yeah. You know how big your TikTok following would be? Oh yeah. That'd be big. I still

00:39:36.700 have an account. Fazelle says, Pearl, congrats on 2 million plus subs. Happy B-Day to the president,

00:39:42.780 DJT. No mariachi is above the law. Deport them all. And Dustin found, actually found the cure

00:39:51.700 to depression. That the most popular alternative medicine to depression is being a whore. So

00:40:01.400 thank you, Dustin. That's great. Um, Sarah step says, my mother has done it all. She's even

00:40:10.460 tried to put nails in my house floors. Sarah in the chat. I didn't think I had any female list

00:40:15.520 watchers. Thanks for getting in the chat on the website. Guys, if you want unlimited supers

00:40:20.760 and access to all my old content, please go to the website. Um, I, we did a lot. We're

00:40:26.700 also on both app stores, so you can do that too. And if you want to be a part of our learning

00:40:31.200 community, click the first link. It's pearlinvite.com. Um, you do have to apply for that though, because

00:40:36.300 we are going to do events and I have to, we, it's an interview process. Um, so if I meet

00:40:43.040 you guys at some point, it's like normal, you know what I mean? I mean, the internet's

00:40:48.140 a strange place. So, um, yeah. Do you have any stories about anyone that you know that

00:40:55.320 was eating some weird stuff or taking some weird medication or something? Not, not eating

00:40:59.180 some weird stuff, but there's someone I know that always thought she was sick. Always, always,

00:41:06.020 always like, it was one week she's gluten free. The next week she's got it. And it would just always

00:41:15.020 be really her problem was a poor diet and things that would be like symptoms of a poor diet. The,

00:41:25.680 like she would find these like obscure diseases or whatever, um, to say that was the real problem.

00:41:34.100 Does that make sense? Doug. Um, so, um, for example, she may have said, oh, I can't sleep and I just don't

00:41:40.880 get good sleep. Well, she didn't get good sleep because she ate terrible. You know what I, so you

00:41:47.320 snore. And so then it would be like this disease or that, oh gosh, it never ended.

00:41:54.100 One of, uh, one of my friends, his, um, his nephew was like, Mr. Duncan Pierre, like, hey, guess he's,

00:42:05.580 he's, he's, he's gen alpha. You know, he's like, I think he's 18, 19. He's like, what do you think

00:42:12.520 of sun gazing? Oh, is that the balls with the like sun? No, it's where sun gazing is a meditative

00:42:21.060 practice that involves looking at the sun during off peak times. So if you meditate while you're

00:42:28.340 staring into the sun, sun gazing is a method of meditation that attempts to harness the healing

00:42:34.900 power of the sun. This is a guy. I was like, don't ever, I should be the first and last person you

00:42:46.200 ever have this conversation with. Don't sun gazing. Are you serious? Oh my gosh.

00:43:19.140 Uh, Hey, uh, Doug, it's me. Yeah. I'm surprised. I didn't think I'd be the first one on. Uh,

00:43:24.900 Hey Pearl. Hey Doug. Hey, how's it going? Where are you calling out of?

00:43:28.140 Uh, Jersey. Uh, I'll get to the point. Uh, the topic was this whole holistic medicine craze stuff. Uh,

00:43:36.880 I, I guess it all falls under the whole appeal to nature fallacy where

00:43:41.860 natural means good man made must be evil and oppressive and capitalistic. And I mean,

00:43:50.160 it's majority of women in this craze, but not just women. Like, I guess the worst example would

00:43:55.000 be Steve jobs. Like his, his inspiration for Apple fonts and art and stuff came from that hippie dippy

00:44:04.300 go to India alternative movement. Yeah. That was great for marketing and computer designs and art.

00:44:13.080 But when it came to him getting cancer, if you got the money, get the chemo and save your life.

00:44:19.180 Don't listen to these. Did you know that? Um, I didn't know that. I didn't know that killed him.

00:44:24.720 I had no idea. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He died in 2011, 2012. He had cancer, but the problem was

00:44:33.080 instead of just going to a regular Western doctor paying the money, which he clearly had,

00:44:39.180 he listened to his holistic hippie friends who were on the no juice cleanse and

00:44:46.220 other stuff like, yeah, like turn snubbing Western white man's medicine is what killed Steve jobs. If,

00:44:56.980 if he had just got the, the chemo, he would probably be alive today. Uh, drinking,

00:45:03.080 Cokes with, uh, Warren Buffett. No way. I did not know that.

00:45:09.180 Before he started working for, well, before he started Apple, he worked at Atari for like five

00:45:14.500 years. Right. And, um, uh, and he never showered. So he, he smelled terrible. And then he, for a couple

00:45:24.980 of years, he was on a fruit, a fruit only diet where all he was fruit.

00:45:29.340 I mean, he was part of that baby boomer sixties seventies hippie ish counterculture. And yeah,

00:45:37.500 that, that, that, that works for marketing crap. And most of the organic stuff is just pure marketing.

00:45:42.540 It's, it's largely not science-based. A lot of it is just marketing appealing to frustration,

00:45:49.100 appeal to nature fallacy, where we think something organic means good, but do you know,

00:45:55.660 that's not true. I used to just, um, I don't know this kind of, this kind of gross, but I used to

00:46:02.340 just, um, chop up salmon and like eat it like raw, like, like sushi or whatever. And I did this for

00:46:09.220 years and people told me I would get parasites or I stopped doing it because so many people told me

00:46:14.540 that I was going to get sick or whatever, but I was literally fine. I did this for like two years.

00:46:19.680 I would just eat raw salmon. Was it, was it the good salmon or the gas station salmon? I mean,

00:46:24.240 it was good. It was like good salmon. Like, like it was from, it was from like jewel or like a grocery

00:46:30.240 store, but it wasn't like sushi grade. And I don't, I was fine. Okay. I'll, I'll wrap it up. Cause

00:46:38.200 there's other people probably on the line, but I just got there watching King of the Hill. And I saw

00:46:43.080 the one when Dale Gribble was selling bee stings, you know, he had bees that almost killed them,

00:46:48.360 but he was at this booth at some organic farmers marketing, some dumb, liberal, trendy white woman.

00:46:55.380 I guess they exist in Texas too. They're like, how many bees can I, how many bee stings can I get for

00:47:01.720 150? He's like, uh, the going rate is 12. It's like, that's such a good deal. But I mean, men,

00:47:09.720 men are into this stuff too, but it seems like so many women just love that stuff. Cause they want

00:47:14.220 to feel earthy or they just hate modern academic capitalist society. But I want to split. Cause

00:47:21.940 there's other people in the chat. Thanks for having me again. Bye. Thanks for calling in.

00:47:25.980 Oh, it's good to have you, man. See Donnie's, he sets the gold standard, comes in here,

00:47:32.800 drop some truth bombs, deuces out. Like, yeah, that was great. He,

00:47:39.280 um, okay. Yeah. Keep going. Cool. All right. We're going to bring up,

00:47:45.160 uh, AJ, are you next? Wait, AJ, are you there?

00:47:52.860 Hey, what's up guys? Can you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you. How are you?

00:47:57.220 Hey, really, really fast. I know a guy whose brother's wife went to, instead of medical school,

00:48:06.020 went to, she's an MD, she's a naturopathic doctor and not a medical doctor. So she said all this time,

00:48:12.900 they put off having kids and everything got like $230,000 in student loan debt. Right.

00:48:18.500 And then once they started having kids, wanted to stay home. So he had to work all these extra hours

00:48:24.800 as a lawyer to pay off the debt, buy a house. And then she figured out that she didn't want to do

00:48:30.100 naturopathic medicine. So now she's a nurse.

00:48:32.760 Are they still in a whole bunch of debt or no? Um, they like just managed to pay it off and their

00:48:46.240 kids are like almost like all grown, but yeah. So she was, so she spent like all these years doing

00:48:52.920 the naturopathic thing. I went to some private school and like, yeah, almost $40 million in debt

00:49:00.600 and then stopped working. And then now she's a nurse. Wait, she got $4 million in debt?

00:49:07.160 No, no, a quarter million. So sort of like $250,000. Oh my gosh. Why didn't you just,

00:49:15.000 why didn't you just take the money from these fat women that go to these places?

00:49:18.760 Because I guarantee that 90% of the time it's not that it, come on, it's their diet. Like 90%

00:49:28.520 of the time it's, it's you eat too much sugar. You drink too much wine. Stop doing that. You'll

00:49:34.680 feel better and walk more. Yeah. But there's, there's all this trendy stuff on, on TikTok now

00:49:41.400 also, and witchcraft now, um, that witchcraft is the fastest growing religion with young women now.

00:49:50.440 So it's a combination of like all these, all these, all these witches on TikTok and all the, and I don't

00:49:56.680 know if you guys want to look into this, but all these chicks that claim they have, they have the cure

00:50:02.200 for the hurt dirt, you know? Oh, I've seen them. Oh yeah. Yeah. That's right. Alternative, alternative

00:50:08.040 cures to STDs is a big one too. Oh no. Oh no. I just want to tell a, tell a story. Have a good one guys.

00:50:17.720 Okay. Bye.

00:50:18.680 Yeah.

00:50:23.080 It's a, it's a minefield out there. They'll make it more complicated than it is. Most health is just

00:50:29.320 common sense. Like eat less sugar, eat less carbs, eat more fruits and vegetables and meat.

00:50:36.200 And probably feel better. Like, you know, if I've ever had a health issue and I've never had anything

00:50:42.280 crazy, but it's always the consequences of my own actions. Do you know what I mean? Like every

00:50:47.480 person I know with like a liver problem drinks too much, you know, it's like, I don't know. I think

00:50:53.320 there's some people do get it like by surprise and they're super healthy. But a lot of the time when

00:50:59.080 people have issues, it's like choice, like things you would kind of expect, you know?

00:51:04.040 Yeah. I, um, I'm not there with you with the whole organic food thing. So there's a heavyweight

00:51:10.120 boxer named Shannon Briggs. He was heavyweight champion and, um, he he's the let's go champ guy.

00:51:17.720 Let's go champ. Anyway. So he was on Joe Rogan. He has a wife and like, and three kids. And he said that

00:51:24.040 that his wife only shops at whole foods right now for a wife and three kids and him try and guess how

00:51:32.600 much she, she spends a year at whole foods. Try and guess. Oh, um, a wife and how you said three kids.

00:51:41.640 Yep. Two grand a month to five. She spends 68 to $70,000 a year. What is that a month? Holy

00:51:51.400 shit on groceries. Yeah. He said it on Joe Rogan. You have got to be kidding me. Yep. He's like,

00:51:56.680 all we do is shop at whole foods. I won't, uh, he won't allow any other kind of food in his house.

00:52:02.920 That's almost six grand a month on food. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Do you know what?

00:52:10.840 I, I'm going to tell you guys, I'm going to start opening up a little more. Some of this people might

00:52:15.800 found this weird, but I've, I've never washed like fruit. I'd always just eat it. Cause I'm like,

00:52:21.880 back in the day, people would just eat like apples off of trees and stuff and they're fine.

00:52:26.520 I don't think the pesticides are that like, I don't, I don't really care about all the stuff

00:52:33.480 because people don't understand all the stuff that you put in your mouth as a kid. Come on now.

00:52:38.680 Like people are washing chicken. Like that was when Maggie came or maybe it wasn't someone came

00:52:44.200 and did like a cooking show with me when I was in London. And I just, I was like, why are we washing

00:52:49.000 chicken? Like, I don't, I, I don't think it makes that much of a difference, but maybe it does. And

00:52:56.200 I'm just like, I'm just, I don't know. You're going to cook it and you're going to kill everything

00:53:01.320 on the chicken by cooking it. Right. That's what I think. I'm like, I just, and even with

00:53:07.880 the washing fruit, I'm like, you're telling me putting a little bit of water for like five seconds

00:53:13.240 over the fruit is going to like kill the germs. Yeah. I mean, maybe it does, but I've, I've never

00:53:21.960 done it and I've always been fine. And everyone's always said, oh, you're going to, they, they said

00:53:27.560 I was going to die from the sushi. I was fine. They said I was going to die from the chicken and the

00:53:33.320 fruit. Now I could be wrong. Maybe I'll eat my words in 10 years and these pesticides will kill me.

00:53:39.800 I don't know. Um, but yeah, let's bring, oh,

00:53:47.640 yes. Hit that like button and subscribe please. And thank you for all the super chats so far.

00:53:52.280 And thank you for everyone on the website too. Always good to see you there.

00:53:57.240 We're bringing up Eric Wade. I don't know if he's, he's everything.

00:54:00.280 She doesn't know how the chickens are processed. I just don't care. Do you know what I mean?

00:54:04.520 No, I don't. When Pearl's hungry, she's hungry. Dang it. She has to eat.

00:54:09.800 It hasn't killed me yet, David. Like, and this is what they're going to show me and the vegans do

00:54:15.320 this too. They'll show me some video. I don't, I don't care. I don't. Um, okay. Yeah.

00:54:22.360 He dropped out. So we're going to bring David. Are you there?

00:54:25.960 Yo, what's going on? Hey, David, how are you?

00:54:28.680 Hey, uh, good as always y'all.

00:54:32.760 So what's your thoughts on the topic? Do you know anyone that was into the alternative medicine

00:54:37.320 or always thought they were sick? Or did your mom stop you from going to the hospital

00:54:43.080 to do some alternative medicine? Would she take you to the hospital?

00:54:47.400 No. So I actually have a kind of a heavy story that, uh, it's like kind of the opposite of what

00:54:51.960 you just said, Doug. But like when I was really little, um, my mom, I think I was probably like

00:54:57.880 six maybe. Um, my mom, she like thought I was, uh, she thought I was like really sick or something.

00:55:05.640 And they, she took me to the hospital and like, normally I would just go to like the doctor and

00:55:11.480 like get a checkup or whatever. But this time we went to like a hospital hospital and I was like,

00:55:15.960 really, really young. So I didn't know what was really going on. And to this day, like, I wish,

00:55:21.000 I wish, I wish my dad had taken me because what happened was I went to the hospital and like,

00:55:27.960 they were trying to take my blood and I never had got that done before. I was still like,

00:55:32.040 I was really, really young. And I remember this, like, this is like a core memory because I remember

00:55:37.000 it so vividly. They took me, they strapped me down into this hospital bed, like literally strapped me

00:55:42.840 down. Cause I was like, you know, like I didn't know what was going on and they were like, oh,

00:55:46.680 we're going to take his blood. We think he's going to freak out or whatever. And blah, blah, blah. They

00:55:51.480 strapped me down and they started doing all this stuff. And I pass out. Like I just completely passed

00:55:55.320 out. And what I, all I remember was like, my mom was like laughing, but she wasn't like trying to like

00:56:01.800 help me through it or like anything. She was just laughing. And like that, that memory stuck in my mind so hard.

00:56:09.000 And I think to this day, that's why I have this, like, I have this like vasovagal, uh, syndrome

00:56:14.520 where like, anytime I go to the doctor and get blood drawn or like get a shot or something,

00:56:20.040 I immediately pass out. Like it's completely involuntary. Like I have no control over it.

00:56:25.080 And I've looked into like, uh, hypnotism and stuff like that, but nothing works. Like even to this day,

00:56:30.600 like I'm, I'm like terrified of that shit. And I think it's because my mom, like,

00:56:34.680 see, like imprinted this memory into me and like made it to where I'm incapable of dealing

00:56:40.360 with these types of things. You know what I mean? Like if it had been my dad there,

00:56:44.120 he would have been like, you know, toughen up, blah, blah, blah, you know, told me to do the right

00:56:48.040 thing. But instead my mom's just there laughing. So I think that's probably a negative thing.

00:56:52.680 I, um, my, it's not really alternative medicine story, but, um, I,

00:56:58.280 I, I don't like stuff touching my feet. And like, I always wear socks, except for when I'm,

00:57:04.520 I'm, you know, uh, at the beach or in the shower. And like, I, I will, I always wonder why

00:57:11.160 we grew up poor while my parents were going to school and my, uh, AJ who is on here, that's my twin

00:57:19.240 brother in real life. And so we grew up poor and we used to, we lived in this really poor neighborhood

00:57:25.960 while my parents were going to school and, um, we used to run around barefoot a lot.

00:57:32.440 And I remember I stepped on a glass bottle and broke a bunch of glass into my foot. Right. And so

00:57:42.520 we didn't have the money to go to the hospital. So my mom took a sewing needle and like a sharp,

00:57:50.040 you know, a sharp edge and dug the glass. Yeah. Hell no. And I had a bunch of good cause I broke

00:58:00.600 the glass and then I jumped up and then like, I step, you know how you do the, you, you jump up and

00:58:05.960 down with your feet. I, anyway, so I stepped on the glass multiple times and she had to dig that glass

00:58:13.480 out of my foot. And I think that's why I always have socks on my feet. I don't like anything touching

00:58:20.840 my feet to this. Yeah, man. It's, it's those core memories. Like when you're young, like those

00:58:25.880 memories get imprinted on you. And like, they actually do like people can, I see people in

00:58:30.040 the chat saying, Oh, you're being dramatic. It's like, no, dude, this is real. Like you can look this

00:58:33.960 stuff up, man. This is like scientific shit. Like, like I wish that it wasn't this way. I wish we could,

00:58:40.280 you know, get rid of our childhood memories that, you know, and they usually involve women. That's

00:58:44.280 what I've noticed is like any type of like traumatic experience typically involves women

00:58:49.240 or your mother, um, instead of your father, your father actually, uh, yeah, sorry. I didn't mean to

00:58:55.480 laugh, but it's like, it's so true, but it's traumatic. The fair mom says my dad was an alcoholic

00:59:03.320 and got drunk one night and made me pull one of his teeth out. I was like 10 years old. Oh my God.

00:59:08.600 Oh yeah. Unless your dad's like doing like, you know, like illegal stuff, you know, and like

00:59:15.240 actually harming you, it's typically going to come from your mother because what happens is like

00:59:19.800 a lot of the simp fathers, they just let the mothers do whatever they want. And the mothers

00:59:23.400 are just gonna, you know, run free with whatever dumb ass idea they have. And like, in my case,

00:59:30.120 my dad was like barely around because he was working all the time and shit. So like, you know, my mom,

00:59:35.160 she, whenever it came to me and my sister, like it was like 99% just us hanging out with mom.

00:59:41.880 And like, I just, I look back on it and I'm like, this was so bad for us.

00:59:47.800 I always say, um, the mothers inflict so much more damage on their sons, but especially their daughters,

00:59:56.040 because if you ask any girl who was the first person to tell them that they were too tall,

01:00:01.320 too short, too thin, too, too fat. Their hair is too stringy or nappy. You know,

01:00:07.560 their boobs are too big. Their boobs are too small. They're dressed like a whore.

01:00:12.520 Who's the first person that anyone hears call another woman, a bitch or a whore. It's your mom.

01:00:22.600 Yeah. Jesse Lee Peterson talks about this a lot. He says that you're as a man, you're supposed to

01:00:27.000 turn away from your, or forgive your mother and, uh, turn to your father, like return to the father

01:00:32.360 and forgive your mother because your mother is putting the traumas into you. Your father is the

01:00:37.160 one that, you know, is going to fix them. Yeah, I agree. But yeah, I just wanted to say that you

01:00:44.120 guys have a good one. I was going to talk to you, David. Have a good one, buddy.

01:00:46.920 Thanks for calling in. I like when David calls in. He always has good stories. Yeah, he's a good caller.

01:00:57.160 Okay, next up we have... We had a good run of like good callers recently. Next up we have

01:01:04.600 Will is coming in. Will, you're on mute. Are you there?

01:01:09.240 Will? Will? You're on mute. He's probably listening to the YouTube chat. It's a couple seconds behind.

01:01:19.480 Will? Hey, you can hear me? Yeah. Hey, yeah, you're right. I was listening to the stream. Sorry about that.

01:01:27.800 How are you? I'm good. Long time first time and all that. Yeah. So, um, what's your thoughts on the

01:01:34.440 topic? You got a story for us? Yeah. Yeah. About a girl I was trying to date in 2023. So,

01:01:40.840 two years ago now. Um, I'm a white dude. I'm from Ohio, but I'm pretty big into Asian chicks. And

01:01:46.600 so I was looking around online and started trying to do the passport bro thing. Uh, eventually

01:01:53.560 started talking to this girl from Singapore. Well, she was living in Singapore. She's actually from

01:01:57.880 south of China. And as you know, China's all about TCM, traditional Chinese medicine, which is

01:02:04.040 exactly what you're describing. It's all holistic stuff. It's, you know, no pills. It's all teas and,

01:02:11.560 acupuncture therapy, oils, hot rocks, you know, whatever that all, all sorts of different things.

01:02:19.640 And so she was a really unique medical case because she had the worst eczema of anybody I've ever met.

01:02:27.480 And she was real self-conscious about it. It didn't bother me too much, but it made her skin,

01:02:32.440 um, I don't know, like I've got family members with eczema and their skin just looks discolored.

01:02:40.040 Her skin was like flaking off constantly to the point where I'm convinced her body was like

01:02:45.160 regenerating skin at an abnormally high rate. She would eat a ton of food every time we went out.

01:02:50.520 It was the strangest thing I've ever seen. And she wasn't like super overweight or anything like that.

01:02:56.280 So, um, I'm convinced that was because of the eczema. Her body was like trying to regenerate cells

01:03:01.720 quicker or something like that. I'm not a doctor. I'm an engineer. I don't know anything about medicine,

01:03:05.400 but, um, I say all of that to say that she worked for a medical company. She was a graphic designer.

01:03:12.200 She would design the labels on their packaging, but her boss, who was a big believer in, uh, TCM,

01:03:20.120 but also Western medicine. He was kind of split between the two. He had recommended for her eczema

01:03:25.240 to take, uh, should I looked it up earlier? I'm going to have to double check now.

01:03:31.720 And it has a funny acronym, but it's like a steroid you take for, uh, eczema. And I can't remember

01:03:37.640 what it's called. She wouldn't take it or she did take it. Yeah. Sorry. Say that again. She wouldn't

01:03:43.560 take it or she was taking it. Um, she, the boss recommended that she take it and she agreed to do

01:03:50.360 so. And the problem was that when you take the steroids, if you have extremely severe eczema to

01:03:56.280 begin with, it'll make it worse because it's a steroid, which kind of makes sense. I don't know why

01:04:01.640 it's, um, sold as a cure, but in any case, if you get a flare up, you get like crazy bad depression.

01:04:09.560 Your life is over. It's, it's like genuinely the worst thing that could possibly happen to you

01:04:14.040 if you have the super bad eczema to begin with. So she tried it. All of that happened. She had a

01:04:18.920 massive flare up. She was like down and out for months and months. She like, couldn't even function.

01:04:24.520 And I guess because the culture over there is so different, she was too polite to be like

01:04:30.920 mad at the dude and actually come back at him and say, Hey, you ruined my life or whatever. But,

01:04:35.960 um, anyway, moved on, stopped taking the steroid, obviously recovered eventually.

01:04:41.080 And then, so that's like half of my holistic medicine story. The other half is I did eventually

01:04:46.760 go to Singapore to meet her. We hung out for like two and a half weeks. We were in Singapore for a

01:04:51.000 week. We traveled to Thailand for a week, which I was very thankful that we were spending some time

01:04:56.120 in a place where food was cheap. Cause like I said, she ate a ton. But anyway, um, at one point,

01:05:01.720 she had me try, uh, essence of chicken, which for some reason I thought was going to taste like

01:05:08.280 chicken noodle soup. And it absolutely was not that at all. It is, it is like a, it's a little,

01:05:16.600 it's a little box. It comes in a box. It's a cube shape. It's maybe like two inches square.

01:05:21.320 And then inside the cube is like a glass jar with like a plastic screw cap. And it is

01:05:29.880 the most bitter, most foul thing I've ever tasted in my life. I'm convinced that they take like in a

01:05:37.720 chicken factory, once they're done with the chickens, they take the bones and mash them up

01:05:41.080 and turn them into this stuff. It's the only, it's the only way I can imagine they would end up with

01:05:46.760 that taste. And she was adamant that this was like the healthiest thing you could possibly drink.

01:05:55.720 Yeah. I used to run, um, before the, the cough cough, I used to run half marathons all the time.

01:06:01.960 And, uh, there was a while in like the late 2010s where running companies were trying to push beet juice.

01:06:09.320 Oh, hell no. So imagine it, it looked like a monster can, you know, like a look, a cannon monster.

01:06:17.080 And, and it was 75% beet juice to the 25% grape juice. Cause that was the only way to make it half

01:06:23.800 palatable. So, you know, I just got done with the 5k and there at the finish line, oh yeah, try this,

01:06:29.960 try this can of stuff. And then I just popped it open and I should have known the smell. Cause

01:06:34.440 beets have that picky smell. I took a swig of that almost choked. Yeah. Yeah. Sounds,

01:06:41.080 sounds pretty similar to my experience. Yeah. The only, the only funny extra to that story was

01:06:47.400 she was making fun of me at the time, I guess, you know, Westerners aren't used to it, but she was

01:06:51.240 telling me there was a sweet version and a particularly nasty regular version of this essence of chicken

01:06:56.680 stuff. And I should have started with the sweeter stuff because that's what they quote unquote give to

01:07:01.400 kids to get them trained on this stuff when they're young. So that by the time they're adults,

01:07:05.400 they're used to it. And I can't even imagine. I was, I had a sweet tooth as a kid. It's not as bad

01:07:10.200 now, but I can't imagine trying to choke that stuff down as a kid that would have killed me. But anyway,

01:07:15.160 yeah, I've been looking to see what essence of chicken is and like, okay, how to make essence of

01:07:26.200 chicken place the skinless chicken legs around the rice bowl, wrap the bowl with food grade plastic

01:07:32.680 film to prevent the steam steam for 60 minutes, remove the wrap, then boil and serve up the,

01:07:40.440 I don't think that's what you're talking about. That sounds like a whole meal. Yeah. The stuff I was,

01:07:44.760 I had wasn't rice or any food or anything like that. Oh, it says essence of chicken powder.

01:07:50.280 Maybe it's created by drying out chicken broth or essence followed by grinding it into powdery form.

01:07:56.440 Is that it? Maybe it sounds a lot more palatable than what I had, but maybe if it's like, all of it

01:08:02.600 sounds awful. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, if it's super concentrated, you might end up with that stuff.

01:08:07.400 Yeah. I don't know. That's a, that's a good, good question. Cool. Yeah. Anyway, I gotta go guys.

01:08:12.280 Sorry. I'm making dinner, but thanks for having me on. Thanks for calling in, calling anytime.

01:08:16.280 Okay. Okay. Okay. Eric dropped out before, but he's here now. I told him he'd be next.

01:08:27.000 Thanks for all sharing all your stories in the chat guys. Great. Yeah. Some of these are pretty

01:08:32.200 funny. If you see any that are funny, feel free to read them. Doug MPA. Eric, how you doing?

01:08:37.800 Hey, Eric. Eric. He probably listened to the YouTube. Oh, we can hear you.

01:08:51.400 He's probably listened to, to the YouTube. She, I'll bet. Yeah. How many,

01:08:56.040 what is it? What just happened to the guy who was on the, on the zoom call?

01:08:59.560 Who was talking about chicken and stuff? Oh, he left. Yeah. He said that he. Oh, okay.

01:09:07.000 Yeah. I must be a few seconds behind you guys.

01:09:10.360 Yes. Uh, I thought I was still in the queue. Sorry. You're okay. Um, so what's your story for us?

01:09:17.640 Make sure you turn off the YouTube chat in the background. I can hear an echo.

01:09:21.880 So just make sure it's, make sure it's paused. I'm sorry. Yeah. I, okay. Let me,

01:09:26.200 let me pause that. I, I muted it, but I guess that doesn't work. Huh?

01:09:31.400 I don't know. I can't see your set, but I, I don't hear not go now. So I think you fixed it.

01:09:37.080 Okay, cool. Um, yeah, I live in, uh, I live in Sedona, uh, in Arizona, which, uh, I mean, this place,

01:09:48.360 everybody is so wealthy that they just thrive on luxury beliefs. Right. So there's

01:09:55.880 very little religion going on here. Uh, most of them are all looking for like these, you know,

01:10:02.440 metaphysical alternatives. And, uh, I mean, you can, you cannot swing a corn dog without hitting

01:10:12.280 a crystal store in this town. You know, like I first moved here in 1982 and then, uh, you know,

01:10:22.120 I, uh, I joined the coast guard shortly after that and went all over the world.

01:10:27.640 Meantime, my entire family moved here. So when I retired from the coast guard, I was like, God,

01:10:32.840 I guess I got to go back to Sedona and, you know, spend, you know, whatever their twilight years are,

01:10:39.160 you know, with my parents and stuff. And, and, uh, you know, but the thing is, um,

01:10:48.280 my impression of the whole metaphysical, you know, um, uh, holistic thing is that there's a whole lot of

01:10:59.800 people trying to figure out how to make money by preying on those, uh, who don't want to like Steve

01:11:08.120 jobs who, uh, who, who don't want to do, you know, like the standard medical thing. Right. So they come

01:11:17.080 up, I swear every week, there's a whole new trend, you know, it's like, uh, it's like, it used to be

01:11:25.080 like, uh, Noni juice from the South Pacific. And then it was, you know, well, you gotta, you know,

01:11:34.360 you gotta find a wild gopher, shave his balls and suck on them and you'll be fine. Right.

01:11:42.360 So listen to this. I remember this was in the late two thousands. There was a coffee company

01:11:51.480 that would go to this Island where bats would eat the coffee beans and then poop them out.

01:11:59.320 So they would, they would go through bat poop and get the coffee beans and they'd sell these,

01:12:06.760 sell these coffee beans for this God awful amount. And certain coffee places would have that coffee and

01:12:12.120 charge like 10, $15 a cup for this coffee that they had to dig out of bat poop. That's how much

01:12:17.880 money people have. Yeah. I remember that. I, well, I suppose that probably dropped out of popularity

01:12:24.040 after COVID got blamed on it. It was like, it was like, oh, I used to drink bat, you know, bat coffee.

01:12:33.640 And then, uh, you know, when, when Fauci told us that, uh, COVID came from fricking bats, I gave it up,

01:12:41.000 you know, but the thing is the, you know, I mean, these are people who believe that there are like

01:12:47.480 universal portals and some of the rocks around Sedona where you can connect with the essence

01:12:54.600 of the creator, you know? And, uh, yeah, you know, it's like, uh,

01:13:02.760 some of them will like climb to the top of castle rock and meditate, hoping to attract UFOs and our space

01:13:09.800 brothers. I mean, and these are all of this shit, all of the holistic medicine, the whole connecting

01:13:17.160 with the space brothers. That's all based on luxury beliefs. These are people who have no real problems.

01:13:26.280 Do you think that it's kind of survival of the fittest in a way?

01:13:29.240 Yeah. It's, it's kind of like the delusion of the fricking dumbest.

01:13:37.080 It's like, it's like, all right, you know, here, I mean, here's what I do. The only reason I live

01:13:42.360 here is because my family wound up moving here and they're all older than me. And I was like,

01:13:48.520 I'm going to have some hang time after they're gone. So despite where I would prefer to live,

01:13:55.320 uh, I'm going to come here and I'm going to make the most of the years that they have left,

01:14:00.280 my older sisters and my mom and dad, and, uh, dad's gone. Mom's not in the greatest shape.

01:14:07.480 My sisters actually aren't in the greatest shape either, quite frankly. Um, but, uh,

01:14:13.720 so my time here is probably limited. I don't know where I'm going to go next, but the point being that,

01:14:20.840 you know, these, um, most of the people, uh, who are able to live here in Sedona,

01:14:29.240 they don't have to worry about that. I mean, they don't even bother to track their budget

01:14:34.040 because the money comes and it goes and they're, you know, they never lack any of it.

01:14:39.240 They have so much, they have so much money. They can just like waste time with this BS basically.

01:14:44.360 Yeah. Also only 40% of women budget anyway. Well, yeah, well, it's difficult, you know,

01:14:53.640 I mean, I, I'm one of those guys and, you know, if I go down to the dollar store

01:14:59.160 and, you know, drop five bucks on laundry detergent, it winds up in my daily log. I mean,

01:15:06.360 well, it's a monthly log really, but you know, uh, I'm super OCD. Uh, I've always tested out,

01:15:14.360 under the Myers Briggs, which I, you know, I don't know if it's completely accurate,

01:15:20.120 but I've always been an INTJ Sigma male, uh, ever since I can remember ever since I've taken the

01:15:26.520 Myers Briggs survey. And, uh, I never wind up red in the bank and I never fuck up my bills

01:15:35.960 because I track that shit daily every day. And, uh, like I said, if I even spend five bucks on

01:15:44.360 laundry detergent at the dollar store, it goes in the lock. I know exactly how much money I have

01:15:50.040 on a day to day basis. My sister, on the other hand, my oldest sister, uh, she's, uh, she's one of

01:15:57.400 these people who, you know, I, I busted her out on my method for budget keeping and she's like,

01:16:04.200 Oh, I don't bring enough money in to bother tracking it. Just screw it. You know? And I'm

01:16:09.000 like, well, then you're, you know, and no wonder you wind up in the red every three days, you know?

01:16:14.120 And she's, yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm really frugal, except for I have my, I'm a couple of things that

01:16:19.080 I don't keep track of. I eat coffee money. I'm one of those people, but Pearl and I have had many

01:16:24.200 conversations about that, that buying coffee every single day. Right. You know, the thing is,

01:16:33.640 you know, it's like, I think the most important thing I do, and I know we're way off topic here,

01:16:39.880 but the most important thing I do is I'll, you know, I'll look at my bank and I'll look at my log.

01:16:47.160 I'll figure out what hasn't come in yet bill wise. And then, uh,

01:16:54.200 you know, I, uh, I subtract every bill that I, you know, have set up electronically that's about

01:17:02.280 to come in over the next couple of weeks. And, um, that will tell me exactly how much money I have.

01:17:09.880 I call it burn rate per day. So, you know, like, uh, it may say I can burn $110 per day until next payday.

01:17:19.560 So I'll probably only spend like at the most 20 to 40 bucks a day, except when Pearl's on or

01:17:27.640 Christine Grace Smith is on or, or, or Alexander Grace, and I have to cough up some fucking super

01:17:33.880 chats. I keep doing that. You know, that, you know, that Pearl, Pearl put Christine Grace Smith on,

01:17:41.080 right? Yeah. Oh, I, yeah. I saw that one. And, uh, yeah.

01:17:45.480 Yeah. I hope Christine's channel grows because her channel is awesome.

01:17:49.560 Yeah. She's great. She's great. I'm really happy she's been doing well. So.

01:17:54.680 Well, she's like you, Pearl. She's one of those rare voices of reason on YouTube.

01:17:58.680 Yeah. And, uh, yeah. So, uh, hey, everybody go to Christine Grace Smith's channel and subscribe,

01:18:05.960 like, do all the YouTube jazz. Thanks. Thanks for calling in. All right. Yeah. All right.

01:18:14.760 Doug and Pearl. Um, yeah. Sedona's, uh, got its head totally up its ass. I fucking hate this now.

01:18:22.120 Yeah. I recommend Charlotte, North Carolina, man. Really? Never been. You gotta go. It's great.

01:18:27.800 Oh, I know. Yeah. Charlotte. It's great. I'll probably wind up in South Dakota, actually,

01:18:33.240 but I'm going to clear off of here and let someone else come on. All right.

01:18:37.320 All right. Let's get talking to Colin anytime, buddy. All right. Cool. All right. We'll let in.

01:18:47.240 Guys, hit that like button, subscribe. Thanks for being here. We appreciate it. Next up, we're letting

01:18:54.280 Scott in. Let's make sure to have the YouTube off and we get, so there's like a five, seven second delay.

01:19:03.240 Scott, are you there? Scott? Scott. Hey, how's it going?

01:19:16.760 You there? Hey, I'm doing great. How are you guys doing? Good. Good to see you, buddy.

01:19:22.840 You got a story for us today? Holistic medicine or maybe your mom neglected. Go ahead.

01:19:30.040 I'm super old. I'm super old, so I don't know if you guys remember. Doug, you might be old enough to

01:19:35.880 remember this. I don't know how old you are, but girls could share alternative holistic medicine

01:19:45.720 ideas with each other on Tik Tok and whatnot. Every, every girl that I knew was really into,

01:19:53.720 what was it? Cocaine.

01:19:55.960 What they use to try to make themselves better. Oh, that was a holistic medicine.

01:20:13.000 That is not what I was thinking he was going to say.

01:20:15.320 Where I'm from, you know, I'm from Washington state. So, you know, it was meth. Meth was what

01:20:24.440 all the girls used to, to treat all their ailments. Oh yeah. Yeah. They still have that.

01:20:29.640 Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Oh my gosh. How did that work for us?

01:20:34.520 I was very close for several years with a woman who was vegan because she had been convinced that

01:20:44.840 that was, you know, the best possible way for her to be like a healthy person to stay out of the

01:20:50.920 hospital and all that kind of thing. And she tried to get me to be vegan. We'd spend way too much money

01:20:57.080 at like trader Joe's and whole foods and all that business. She's into the, all the disgusting, like

01:21:02.840 imitation meat burgers and stuff like that. So mom's story short, we break up. I didn't really

01:21:11.640 keep in touch with her, but we would cross paths every so often back in San Diego. Cause we had similar

01:21:20.440 groups of friends and whatnot. And about a year and a half after we broke up, I ran into her at the gym

01:21:26.200 and she was telling me this story about how she was, uh, just getting really sick and everything.

01:21:32.040 So she went to the hospital and they did a full like blood test panel type of thing on her. And,

01:21:39.400 and the doctors convinced her that she was all up because she was vegan and she didn't have any

01:21:45.160 iron blood. Uh, it was brutal. I could never be vegan because of bacon. And then you're gonna laugh,

01:21:55.320 but the, the Burger King whopper like every other fast food burger I can leave behind.

01:22:03.480 But every so often I go to Burger King and I don't get anything. I don't get the French fries or

01:22:08.600 anything. I just get a burger. I get a whopper with cheese and bacon, no onions cut in half and just have

01:22:15.000 to eat it every once in a while. Dude, that's fucking disgusting. Hey, you know what? Hey,

01:22:20.840 Hey, you know what? I eat seven 11 food. I eat those. Oh my God. I eat those Monterey Jack

01:22:29.000 chicken taquitos on the roller. I eat that. I eat tuna fish sandwiches from the seven 11.

01:22:36.040 So you gotta, you gotta know who you're talking to over here.

01:22:41.800 You are a fucking real man, bro. I'm not hating on you at all. I don't need anything like that. I'm

01:22:51.400 like, I make all my own food. I bring lunches to work. Like I bring a George Foreman grill to work at

01:22:58.280 my job and plug it into the welding machine that I use all day on my lunch breaks and cook steaks and

01:23:04.120 shit like that. Like I'm, I have enough experience knowing people in food service jobs where like

01:23:15.400 I, I don't ever let anybody else make my food back in the day when I was young, I used to work three

01:23:21.000 jobs. And one of them was, I was an opener at Starbucks at the orange County airport. And I

01:23:27.000 I shouldn't admit this on video, but I've been prosecuted for worse crimes than this, but

01:23:33.960 dude, we used to spit in so many people's drinks. Just be careful. Just be careful out there.

01:23:45.480 Come on, man. Hey, I'm not, I didn't make this shit up. It's not like I just like

01:23:51.720 now getting in people's shit. I just started working there and it was the senior

01:23:57.000 like barista dudes that were cool. That were like, look, man, when this particular person comes

01:24:02.440 in, that's an asshole to everybody all the time, we're going to all spit in their drink. And it was

01:24:07.480 like a game where we can see how many of us could spit in the same pissed off ladies coffee.

01:24:15.880 Bro, it was worse than that. I used to give people decaf. People would come in and order like a five

01:24:20.440 shot, whatever, special ass drink. And I would give them fucking decaf, son.

01:24:25.400 Oh my gosh. Ew.

01:24:27.880 You were a menace. Absolute menace. A menace to society, man.

01:24:33.800 I was an asshole when I was young. I don't do that kind of thing anymore. Of course,

01:24:37.640 that would be, that would be wrong now that I'm addicted to coffee, just like y'all.

01:24:41.240 Yeah. Are those, um, have you seen those videos where since you work in construction where the

01:24:49.480 white guys show their lunches and it's like a ham sandwich with some chips and then like the Mexican

01:24:55.880 guys show their, their lunches and their wives cook them up all this good stuff, like handmade.

01:25:01.400 Is that real? I haven't seen that. That's a hundred percent true, man. A hundred percent. I haven't

01:25:06.440 seen that going around cause I'm not super deep into social media and whatnot, but like that's a

01:25:11.640 hundred percent. That's why I'm like an honorary Mexican. I'm so down with the Mexicans, dude.

01:25:16.520 The, the Mexican lunch ladies, you guys already know how I feel about that. I love those women.

01:25:21.400 They're my favorite. I'm in Atlanta right now. We don't have any Mexican lunch ladies that are allowed

01:25:28.040 to come on our job site. Cause we're doing government work. So I'm just bringing my George

01:25:32.760 former mistakes. You're not going to see any of them for a while. Not, not with ice ice baby doing,

01:25:39.800 doing what they're doing. No more tamale ladies anytime soon.

01:25:47.240 Dude, don't get me wrong. I want them all deported, but like I love them at the same time. You know what

01:25:52.040 I mean? It's not, not cause I hate them. It's just because I want my taxes to go down, not up. I mean,

01:25:59.160 good luck with that. You know how it is. Yeah. So no more tamale ladies, you know,

01:26:04.520 selling tamales for cheap out of the trunk of their cars. None of that, man. Not for the next three years.

01:26:12.120 I hope so. I hope some of them stick around. I hope someone can dodge ice and show up and hook me up.

01:26:20.040 Okay. I got one crazy, crazy story for y'all and then I'm going out to dinner. So check this out.

01:26:26.280 The, nobody's going to beat this. This is the craziest shit you've ever, you've ever heard in

01:26:30.760 your life. My last, man, I shouldn't even really. No, come on. The last, the last woman that I was with

01:26:38.680 we're having a baby and she got convinced by some podcasters on YouTube that the best possible,

01:26:51.240 most healthy thing that she could do to replenish her own, uh, like status of being a whole healthy

01:27:01.160 woman after she gives birth to a child is to save the placenta.

01:27:07.000 I've heard of this. I've heard of this.

01:27:09.000 You know what I'm saying, right? Yeah. And make tea out of it or eat it. Yeah.

01:27:12.280 Yeah. Yeah.

01:27:13.000 She was going to make placenta smoothies, bro. This shit's real. This is, this is, this shit's

01:27:19.240 real. There's podcasters out there that are into like astrology. I don't care. And then they,

01:27:26.280 and then they convince them not to. And then they convince them not to take drugs when they

01:27:30.520 give birth. I don't care. I'm getting drugged up. I told you guys before, but we had this baby

01:27:37.560 in our own, I delivered the baby. Oh, wow. Yeah. We had the baby at home. She just like

01:27:42.680 invited her home girls over that are like these like farmer type ladies. There was no actual like

01:27:49.800 professional doctors or midwives or anything. It was just like me and this circle of like

01:27:58.120 super hardcore granola eating kind of witchy chicks. It was, I mean, thank God,

01:28:05.240 nothing crazy happened and everything worked out. Did you have a catcher's mitt on where you caught

01:28:10.600 that bad boy sliding? The whole nine. I caught the baby. We did the skin to skin little family

01:28:21.320 thing and everything. And then this bitch bounced on me, dog. How the fuck does that add up?

01:28:29.960 No, it adds up perfectly. She's a woman. I mean, what did you? Yeah. Modern women.

01:28:33.720 What did you expect? I think the actually, the flaw in your thinking was making it to that age

01:28:40.840 and expecting something else. Like, why would you expect the wife to stay in your whole life? Yeah.

01:28:47.880 I mean, that, that was just silly. You might as well just plan for the divorce before the marriage,

01:28:53.400 you know? I know. Right. I was, I was too worried about placenta milkshakes and I was like,

01:29:00.680 really trying to quarterback the situation and make sure that didn't actually happen.

01:29:04.680 So at least that's a point in my category. You know what I mean? Yeah.

01:29:09.960 Because I did put the kibosh on that. We didn't actually have any placenta smoothies going on,

01:29:14.760 but bro, it was close. Would you have had to drink it if she made it?

01:29:18.840 Not me. She was going to drink it. Okay. I was just going to lose all respect. I'm like,

01:29:29.160 and if you can see what these dudes look like that are these podcasters that are telling women

01:29:35.160 to do this, they look crazy, man. They're not even like a normal looking dude. They're like dudes

01:29:41.960 like super crystals and t-shirts and they ain't got no real job. They just have a podcast and they're,

01:29:50.760 you know, I'm like, you're going to listen to these cats, but you're not going to listen to me.

01:29:55.560 They have the fricking balding man bun and the fricking dirty white t-shirt on and,

01:30:01.400 and I was talking about crystals and chakras and yeah, man, it's terrible.

01:30:05.960 They have some kind of, um, uh, uh, some kind of tea business or some kind of like coffee shop or

01:30:16.600 something on the side. Yeah. I know exactly what you're talking about. Yeah. You're right there, man.

01:30:23.400 Anyway, that's all I got for you. Watch out for placenta smoothies out there.

01:30:29.000 It'd be nice to people at Starbucks so they don't spit in you. Yeah, gross.

01:30:32.600 Yeah, bro. Yeah. I mean, that shit goes without saying, make sure you're not getting spiked decaf.

01:30:43.560 Make sure to tip the people that make your food and be nice out there.

01:30:49.720 Uh, yep. I hear you. All right. I gotta go. I'll catch y'all later. Thanks for calling.

01:30:54.840 The chat is so funny tonight. Yeah.

01:31:01.160 Always a good caller that guy. All right. And then last but not least, we have RJ.

01:31:06.360 Thanks for being here this evening. We really appreciate it. We know it's Saturdays. We

01:31:10.440 always appreciate you listening in. Um, normal show times are Monday through Friday at 7 p.m.

01:31:17.480 Central time. So make sure to catch Pearl on at those times. RJ, how you doing?

01:31:22.920 Hey, I'm doing well. How are you? Where are you calling out of?

01:31:27.320 I'm calling out of El Salvador. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yes. Yes. Sorry. I'm, um,

01:31:35.640 as soon as I heard your voice, I remembered.

01:31:37.560 Um, so what's your, um, story that you have for us today?

01:31:45.800 Yeah. So I'm actually going to come in here and I'm, I want to simple a little bit actually,

01:31:49.960 uh, because I'm calling in defense of women and not full defense. I'm like, yeah, there's,

01:31:57.560 there's some crazy stuff out there, but to give my background here. So I have two kids that are

01:32:03.640 severely autistic. Um, my oldest son, uh, he actually, today is his 10th birthday. And to

01:32:11.160 get you an idea of what I mean by severely autistic, he doesn't really communicate. Um, he has a couple

01:32:18.600 sentences that he uses out of context. So he'll say words, but the words have little meaning. Um,

01:32:24.360 he needs constant help with eating and even going to the bathroom. Um, and his, uh, his brother is

01:32:33.960 very much of the same. Um, and this is something obviously we've been dealing with for, um,

01:32:39.160 for quite some time. And one of the challenges that we have run into is we have taken them to

01:32:45.480 doctors. We have done everything that we were told we're supposed to. We, you know, we, we did what

01:32:53.080 we're supposed to do based off of what the doctors told us to do. And every single medical intervention

01:32:57.640 that we have received has backfired on us. Um, so some good examples is my wife, she would be

01:33:06.200 taking, I believe it was, it was Tylenol while she was pregnant. She was told this is perfectly safe.

01:33:11.880 This is a safe one for women. And then it's been more recently, it's been said, oh no, actually

01:33:17.720 Tylenol may result in autistic symptoms in your children. Um, we would take them to therapy.

01:33:23.880 Um, and they would use this feeding therapy and the, what we would do, what they would do for feeding

01:33:31.880 therapy is they would basically put a piece of celery on a plate and I'd say, or, and tell,

01:33:38.280 tell my son, or I want you to pick up the piece of celery and just kiss it.

01:33:41.080 And he would, and he would go and grab it and bring it up to his mouth and like,

01:33:44.520 maybe just barely kiss it. And he just brought it up closely, didn't even kiss it. They would

01:33:48.920 give him Skittles. And so he would come out of therapy, just wired on, on like, just, just

01:33:55.800 completely wired from all these Skittles they're giving him, but he's not actually eating any celery.

01:34:00.040 He's not eating any food. And we actually never, like it was, it was a big problem because,

01:34:06.440 you know, he got really good about eating Skittles. And I mean, I think most people can agree

01:34:11.000 Skittles is really not the best thing for, I think he was like five years old at that point.

01:34:14.840 Um, so they're not a great thing to be giving a five-year-old, especially one who is malnourished

01:34:21.160 and is, um, anemic and has all these other gut issues on, on top of things. Uh, but to, to put this

01:34:29.160 in a, a, and I'm sorry, if I'm rambling, if you want to interject at any point, please do.

01:34:33.000 Okay. So, but to put it in a, in a broader scope, the, uh,

01:34:41.400 the issue here is that there is a significant lack of trust across the board from medical,

01:34:49.240 from, from people with their medical professionals. And a lot of it is justified.

01:34:54.280 Another good example I have is we wanted to get some genetic testing done because

01:34:58.760 we want to see if there was this genetic mutation that may result in some autistic symptoms. And there's

01:35:05.080 a misdiagnosis of one of our sons and the medical, we brought, asked the doctor, Hey,

01:35:10.760 can we do genetic testing? He said, absolutely no problem. We can do that. And I said, okay,

01:35:14.200 well, are you gonna test for this particular genetic marker? And he said, yes, we will test for that,

01:35:19.160 but we're not going to tell you what the results of that test are because there's people online who

01:35:25.320 sell these pills for like 50 bucks a month saying that if you take these pills with a genetic marker,

01:35:32.840 it's going to cure your son of autism. And we don't want you to go and waste your money on,

01:35:37.960 on stuff like that. Uh, if it does come up positive. Now I understand their position on this, but

01:35:43.160 my, if I was spending $50 a month on pills that were placebo and the result was my son

01:35:52.920 stopped having autistic symptoms. He would, he became a normal child. It was, was having fun.

01:35:58.760 I did all these things that normal kids do. I would not care if I was spending $50 a month. I wouldn't

01:36:04.760 care why it was working. I would just say here, take my money because it, whatever's happening. I don't

01:36:12.200 want to, I don't want to jinx it. I don't want it to break. And the fact that they're saying, no,

01:36:16.200 we're not going to give you this information because we are trying to help you make financial

01:36:20.520 decisions. That's not their financial decisions to make is a big problem. And again, this to expand,

01:36:27.240 I'm not going to go too dense because it's a massive rabbit hole, but a lot of this comes down to just

01:36:31.880 the way that the, um, the insurance companies and the way the medical system is set up in the United

01:36:37.960 States, because I've, I mean, I've been living outside of the United States for over three years.

01:36:41.400 I lived in Europe. Things are very different in the way people approach medicine in Europe.

01:36:46.200 And it's, I, I think this is the big root. Um, obviously it's really bad when you have

01:36:52.920 situations where, where kids die from these decisions. But I think the problem is that the

01:36:57.640 medical industry needs to do a better job of building trust and not just telling people,

01:37:03.400 uh, basically gaslighting people about the things and just when they make a mistake saying,

01:37:07.720 oops, my bad, I'm sorry, your life sucks now. Right. No, that makes sense. I could see why

01:37:13.160 you'd have that perspective. Doug MPa, you got anything to add on it? Yeah, I, um, I, I guess

01:37:21.160 I just, you know, I would trust modern medicine more than any kind of holistic medicine. If I had to

01:37:27.720 look, I'm all about, you only have limited time and resources. So I'd rather trust in modern medicine

01:37:35.960 than holistic, but, but people should make a choice as long as it's a, as long as it's an informed

01:37:42.200 choice. Understand what I'm saying? But make the best choice for you. So you, I don't tell people what

01:37:48.280 to do when it comes to this, but you know, you, you know, just, I don't like when people just rule out

01:37:58.120 modern medicine. I, I guess, just do what's best for you. That's all I want to say. Well, sure. But,

01:38:05.960 and, and again, I'm not even saying that modern medicine is bad. Um, you know, I, I've had some very

01:38:12.440 serious injuries. I had a skiing accident, tore my ACL. They put my, put it back together, you know,

01:38:18.680 broke my ankle in the same leg. They put it back together. Like I've had a lot of positive things

01:38:23.000 with modern medicine. I think there's some certain categories, um, like for the therapy that I was

01:38:28.120 going to, it was paid by, by the state at the point, um, where again, cause my, my wife wasn't

01:38:33.640 able to work and all these challenges. I was on Medicaid at that time and Medicaid was covering the

01:38:39.400 cost of this therapy. It was the only way we'd ever be able to afford the

01:38:42.200 therapy in the first place because the therapy, I, it was, it was going to cost like about $120,000

01:38:50.120 a year. I think it's what it was. Um, again, we're doing an hour for two kids, um, every single,

01:38:56.600 every single, uh, business day. So I think it was like a $60,000 for, for each kid or something like

01:39:02.200 that. It's been a while since I, I remember the numbers, but again, they, it's, they're covering,

01:39:08.600 uh, the medic Medicaid was covering this. And if they actually were able to solve the problem and,

01:39:15.160 and fix the issues with my, my son, then, or, or either of them, you know, they're losing a

01:39:21.320 significant source of income that's guaranteed because the state's right. Yeah. And, and this

01:39:27.080 is, and this is where it, again, like for, for fixing things like, like broken bones and,

01:39:33.240 you know, um, that's like, I get it that there's important places for, for modern medicine.

01:39:39.480 There's just a lot of other places where it doesn't work as well. And even when you go and bring up,

01:39:44.760 Hey, you know, things like, Hey, have we, can we look, consider this other option? Um, and the response

01:39:51.000 is always, well, there's not enough data or research to be able to, uh, to, to, to, for me to be able to give

01:39:57.240 you an opinion on that. Like the, the doctors are so locked in because of what they're allowed

01:40:02.120 to actually say, like the amount of times I've heard, Oh, there's just not enough research on

01:40:06.600 that. There's not enough research on that, on, on any kind of question I have to be able to actually

01:40:10.200 solve problems is so there's so many times that they say that. And it just becomes a case where

01:40:17.720 you like, as a parent and you see your kid in this state, um, of, of just their, their,

01:40:23.240 their suffering. Um, this is not known, but, uh, there's been a lot of people don't notice about

01:40:29.160 autism, uh, tip the average life expectancy for, for autistic people is usually in their thirties.

01:40:34.760 So really, it's not low. I did not know that. Wow. Again, one of the things I will say is more

01:40:41.800 recently, like the, we start having this autism spectrum. And so they, I don't even think of like,

01:40:48.680 like what I thought of as autism, like 15 years ago, it's not what I think of as autism today.

01:40:55.640 Like when I, when I hear autistic, I, I, I hear socially awkward now where like 15 years ago, it

01:41:01.000 was like a lot of times, like they couldn't functions. It wasn't like, like today I even

01:41:06.840 think of people that just can't make eye contact or just a little awkward rather than, um, like

01:41:14.120 the people I would think of like 15 years ago would be like, they could barely talk, you know?

01:41:20.360 Yeah. And that's what exactly I'm talking about. I'm talking about the, the autism of 15 years ago.

01:41:24.200 I, I oftentimes when I try to describe it to people, I say, oh no, it's not the new modern,

01:41:28.440 you know, cool autism that people have. It's the old school, you know, debilitating autism,

01:41:33.000 um, that, that we used to have, but it, yeah. And so this is a very serious problem. Like,

01:41:38.200 this is not something that that's, that's cute. Like some people make it out to be right. And so

01:41:43.960 when I'm trying to go and say, Hey, can we try these other things? Can we look for other things?

01:41:47.880 And I'm also told that no, we can't, the best thing we can do is to just have your kids pretend

01:41:54.920 to be normal. That is the best case scenario. And, and I'm saying, well, can we look at doing

01:41:59.880 this other thing that might help? Can we like, you know, there's some gut issues because of this

01:42:03.880 thing can, can we look into this? And I say, well, there's not enough research on that. So I can't

01:42:08.680 recommend anything about going down that path. Like it, you just feel like so stuck and looking

01:42:13.080 for, for someone to help, to give you some hope. Um, and yes, it does have a downside. And this is

01:42:19.080 where I think women will tend to go to more of the woo woo stuff, you know, like, okay, let's put in

01:42:25.000 some crystals and stuff. Whereas when you have a man, they give a bit more grounding, like, okay,

01:42:30.760 does this actually make sense? Is this actually a logical thing to, to consider? And what's,

01:42:35.400 what are the risk factors and everything? Um, so again, like I said, I'm not, I'm not going to go

01:42:40.600 and just, you know, say everything that all the woo woo stuff is all good, but I think that there,

01:42:46.040 this is the bigger issue here is a way that the medical system is in the United States and the way

01:42:51.080 that they're failing people. Yeah. Cool. Well, thanks for calling in and giving your perspective,

01:42:57.080 Doug MPA. You got anything else? Nope. Always good hearing for you, RJ. Yeah. Call in any time.

01:43:01.960 Okay. Yeah. Yep. It's a great day. That is everybody. Cool. Well, I was expecting more. Um,

01:43:13.080 my mother always thought she was sick stories. I was expecting a little more of those.

01:43:17.800 Well, I guess we can do a show on that Munchhausen by proxy where women have, have made their kids sick

01:43:24.440 to get attention. And then there's, um, Munchhausen's is, is where you, you act sick all the time.

01:43:29.960 So we might be able to do it. You have these influencers who fake like a cancer diagnosis to

01:43:36.040 get money or something like that. Yeah. It's all over the place. From what I've seen, it's not

01:43:39.800 necessarily they're faking it, but it's like mothers with high anxiety levels and they don't know how to

01:43:45.720 manage it. So they're just always scared they're sick. Like always. And they're just, whenever they hear

01:43:50.920 like any symptom that matches their symptoms, that that's the, that's what I've seen, you know,

01:43:57.000 but okay. Well, thanks for calling in today, Doug MP, any final thoughts on the show?

01:44:03.000 Yeah. I mean, guys

01:44:06.520 seek modern medical treatment. I mean, it's medical practice, but we want you all here as long as

01:44:13.240 possible. You know what I'm saying? This whole thing. Well, Oh, like Ananda Lewis, I'm going to keep

01:44:18.520 my tumor. And then all of a sudden she's like, man, I really should have got a double mastectomy

01:44:24.280 two years ago. Yeah. Well now it's too late. Yeah. I mean, I think I want to be alive. I don't

01:44:30.520 want to die anytime soon. So do whatever you can to keep me alive. Dang it. Yeah. I don't know. I

01:44:35.560 think alternative stuff may be early on. You can try that. But if I'm, if I have cancer, I'm getting

01:44:43.960 chemo. If I give birth, I'm getting drugs. Fuck you guys. Yeah. Shout out to all the natural moms

01:44:50.120 out there. I'm not joining you. Yeah. Yeah. I had a friend who they had two sons. Yeah. And

01:44:57.960 um, the first birth was natural. And then the second birth she had drugs and he's like, Oh man, dude,

01:45:07.560 like, Oh, she had, um, Oh, the, it was so much better the second time, man, because she was,

01:45:14.680 she was a maniac the first time. Yeah. Give me the drugs. Knock me out. I don't want to feel a thing.

01:45:23.160 Okay. Well, what was that you said the other day who said that if, if birth was so painful,

01:45:29.400 why do women keep doing it multiple times? But that's it. That's all I got.

01:45:36.520 All right, guys. Um, my final thoughts are that, um, I'm not against holistic prevention.

01:45:43.160 I actually think that's the best way to put it. I'm not against reasonable, holistic prevention,

01:45:50.440 um, such as eating clean, eating healthy, working out. I think that's fine. Um, but generally if it's

01:45:56.600 more complicated than that, like we're worried about the plastic, the microplastics, the water,

01:46:02.760 look, um, I know people that are in great shape and they drink microplastics and they're fine.

01:46:08.120 So, um, I'm not against reasonable prevention, but I think if I get cancer,

01:46:14.200 I am getting the chemo. Give me the drugs. Give me whatever you got.

01:46:18.440 All right, guys. Thanks for watching. Um, if you got any topic suggestions,

01:46:22.200 put it in the comments, please like the video on your way out and subscribe to the channel.

01:46:26.040 And in the next two weeks, there's going to be an announcement. So get excited.

01:46:29.720 All right. Like the video. I'll see you guys. Bye.
