00:00:55.220 Newsreaders, politicians, teachers, lecturers.

00:00:59.220 We are in a country and in a world that is being run by unbelievably sick people.

00:01:08.100 The chasm between what we're told is going on and what is really going on is absolutely important.

00:01:14.200 Oh, yeah, dude.

00:01:15.600 They should never.

00:01:16.280 It's like we all know what's going down, but no one's saying shit what happened to the home of the grave.

00:01:22.380 They controlling this now.

00:01:24.220 I know we're talking about how they made a spot of these slaves.

00:01:35.360 Welcome to the end of day.

00:01:37.140 Everybody is slaves.

00:01:38.280 Only some are aware that the government releasing poison in that.

00:02:08.280 But engaging in the live chat, enjoying an ad-free viewing and listening experience, as well as early access to Bohemian Grove tickets when they drop.

00:02:17.380 And we're looking to February or March for those tickets to drop.

00:02:21.660 It's very exciting.

00:02:22.480 I hope you guys are excited.

00:02:23.160 We'll be there.

00:02:23.720 Our guest will be that he was there this last one.

00:02:25.980 That's right.

00:02:26.260 He was there for the very first one.

00:02:27.340 That is true.

00:02:27.880 Yeah, he was there for the very first one.

00:02:29.500 Also, there's discount codes off of merchandise from TopLobster.com that await you over there.

00:02:34.060 What do we got?

00:02:35.780 Pick a pick.

00:02:36.520 We don't have that one on there today.

00:02:38.360 I don't know.

00:02:38.900 How about the Springfield Animal Control?

00:02:40.640 They're eating the dogs.

00:02:41.840 They're eating the cats.

00:02:43.420 That was a banger that went away.

00:02:44.920 And we don't have fun like that anymore.

00:02:46.340 Now everything is.

00:02:47.840 Everything's super serious.

00:02:48.920 Everything is like, you know.

00:02:50.000 Everything's scary now.

00:02:51.360 Assassinations.

00:02:52.060 I like when they were just accusing them of eating the dogs and eating the cats.

00:02:54.900 Joining us today is Dr. Yared.

00:02:57.320 For the audience who may not be familiar with you.

00:03:00.140 What is it that you do?

00:03:01.540 And where can they find what you do?

00:03:02.680 Well, I am an internal medicine physician.

00:03:05.060 And I am a ringside physician.

00:03:06.260 Meaning that I take care of all chronic disease, chronic illness.

00:03:10.980 And I also am the doctor when, you know, you have UFC fights in town here in Florida.

00:03:16.500 Bare knuckle fighting.

00:03:18.120 Any type of fisticuff action or aggression happening that is sanctioned.

00:03:22.980 I'm right there next cage side to take care of the fighters.

00:03:27.680 Very cool.

00:03:28.300 We were talking before the show and you were saying kind of all these different places that you lived in.

00:03:32.840 We were saying that the Northeast really sucks or just the North really sucks when it comes to that temperature fluctuation and what it does to your immune system.

00:03:40.280 What made you pick Florida?

00:03:42.420 Because I know what made us pick Florida.

00:03:43.920 And I wonder if it's a similar thought process.

00:03:45.940 Why here?

00:03:46.360 In Florida, I, you know, when I started my medical career, you know, I started in Puerto Rico.

00:03:51.600 I wanted to be a doctor.

00:03:52.860 I did a couple of years in Mexico, in med school in Mexico.

00:03:56.620 But that wasn't going to fly if I wanted to practice in the United States.

00:03:59.380 So I finished up in Puerto Rico in PHSU, Ponce School of Medicine.

00:04:04.840 And I did my residency there in Puerto Rico in a U.S. kind of U.S. program that's in Puerto Rico.

00:04:10.440 So it allowed me to practice here.

00:04:11.900 And the first thing that I did when I graduated from the specialty was pick the first offer.

00:04:18.240 You know, I was raised in the public housing project in Puerto Rico.

00:04:21.020 So super dirt poor.

00:04:23.220 So, you know, when I put my name out there in a website and I got the first offer.

00:04:28.100 Ponce.

00:04:28.540 Ponce.

00:04:29.020 It's on the south side of Puerto Rico.

00:04:30.340 All right.

00:04:30.540 All right.

00:04:30.680 My dad's from San Juan and my family's in Ceiba right now.

00:04:33.540 But I don't know where Ponce is.

00:04:34.740 It's probably just the very south.

00:04:35.900 The biggest, the biggest town in the south.

00:04:38.000 You know, a couple of miles by a couple of miles.

00:04:40.220 That's big for us.

00:04:41.040 Yeah, yeah.

00:04:42.420 So when I put my name on a website for hiring, you know, they said, you know, we're going

00:04:47.200 to give you a 50,000 bonuses to say less.

00:04:49.320 Yeah.

00:04:50.080 Where is it?

00:04:50.920 That's good.

00:04:51.300 Iowa.

00:04:51.800 I'm there.

00:04:53.540 Where's Iowa?

00:04:54.060 That was the first one on my way.

00:04:55.460 It was Iowa?

00:04:56.400 Dude.

00:04:56.800 Yeah.

00:04:57.300 Yeah.

00:04:57.620 I went just like, you remember that Jim Carrey movie where he had to say yes to everything?

00:05:01.920 Yeah.

00:05:02.260 I was in that point in my life.

00:05:03.440 I'm like, I'm dirt, dirt poor.

00:05:05.660 I want to make some money.

00:05:06.700 And they kind of, you know, waved a couple of checks in front of my face.

00:05:10.440 And I'm like, that'll do it.

00:05:11.520 I'm there.

00:05:12.440 That's like a flyover state though, right?

00:05:14.020 Like it's like just endless.

00:05:15.800 That's it.

00:05:16.320 Endless fields of corn.

00:05:17.560 That's where Josh Smith is from.

00:05:19.720 Oh, really?

00:05:20.220 It's freezing out there.

00:05:21.680 Yeah.

00:05:22.020 I couldn't.

00:05:23.080 Couldn't be me.

00:05:23.700 How long did you hang out in Iowa before you were like, what am I doing?

00:05:26.540 Four and a half years.

00:05:27.140 Wow.

00:05:27.420 Where the biggest Monsanto facility is, by the way.

00:05:32.060 I live like 25 minutes from that.

00:05:34.440 Close enough that you could taste it on the produce, right?

00:05:38.180 Yeah.

00:05:38.440 Yeah.

00:05:38.740 Yeah.

00:05:38.980 It's like, this is, the colors are very, very vivid.

00:05:43.320 Do they poison?

00:05:44.460 Do you shit where you eat?

00:05:45.640 I guess.

00:05:46.060 Oh, 100%.

00:05:46.640 Yeah.

00:05:46.980 They probably do, right?

00:05:47.740 They don't care.

00:05:48.100 I think the further out you are, the less potent it is.

00:05:50.120 The closer you are, the stronger it gets.

00:05:51.700 Yeah.

00:05:52.160 So you could taste it.

00:05:53.020 You die a little bit each time you eat a stalk of corn there.

00:05:55.780 The people, people die so much.

00:05:56.960 Yeah.

00:05:57.400 I believe it.

00:05:58.400 I believe it.

00:05:58.840 There's like nothing to do in Iowa though.

00:06:00.560 Nothing.

00:06:00.960 Nothing.

00:06:01.140 I mean, I, by happenstance and for me, it was a change because Puerto Rico is just, is

00:06:06.720 just, you know, gun central and just crime central.

00:06:10.480 And being from a public housing project, I want to get as far away from this as possible.

00:06:15.900 You got it.

00:06:16.320 And take my family and just, and I got that.

00:06:19.020 You're like, you're not that far.

00:06:20.840 And I had an acreage and all that stuff.

00:06:22.840 And it was fun, you know, for the age I was in having two girls and having, you know,

00:06:28.320 I'm like, this is fun to have an acreage and just let them loose out there.

00:06:32.680 So it was fun.

00:06:33.680 But the, like you said, we were talking before the pod and you said, like, we get sick more

00:06:38.640 often on that type of weather.

00:06:40.460 Yeah.

00:06:40.740 For, for some reason, the immune system just doesn't gel with being inside because you

00:06:46.780 have to be inside all the time.

00:06:48.380 The air you're breathing, uh, on the heating system is recirculated over and over again

00:06:54.440 and it's conditioned.

00:06:55.620 So every place that you go, you're soaking in everybody's bacteria and everybody's funk.

00:07:02.960 So everybody gets super sick.

00:07:04.840 The food is not fresh because it's winter.

00:07:07.480 Yeah.

00:07:07.720 So it just took me one visit to Florida and I'm like, yeah, what have I been doing?

00:07:12.740 My wife has like, uh, my wife, my wife, we spent like a ton of money on the, uh, the

00:07:17.800 HEPA system for both of these air conditioning things.

00:07:20.940 Like, cause when we first moved here, she got really sick.

00:07:23.480 I don't know.

00:07:23.880 Have I told you the story before?

00:07:25.280 No.

00:07:25.920 Uh, so we were like just normal people.

00:07:28.300 We moved here and, uh, she got COVID the COVID reactivated her Lyme disease or so we were

00:07:35.460 told and from there she just ran through all the stuff, all the things.

00:07:40.160 And she's a nurse working in the Western medical system.

00:07:42.380 So obviously the prescription is going to be go to the doctor, get this, get that.

00:07:47.540 And, uh, they wanted to put her on some pills that she would be on for the rest of her life.

00:07:51.740 She recognized it immediately and said no and started doing research.

00:07:55.940 Uh, she found like guys like Dr. Charlie, I, I wish I would have, uh, you know, recommended

00:08:01.120 her to you cause I'm sure you could have helped her as well.

00:08:02.900 But, uh, just for clarification, when they diagnose you with Lyme disease, conventionally

00:08:08.000 there's, this is a lifelong thing, right?

00:08:10.340 Like conventionally speaking, they don't have a means of, of healing you permanently from

00:08:14.900 that situation.

00:08:15.540 They, uh, they offered her like, like, uh, heavy antibiotics and she didn't want to do

00:08:21.680 that.

00:08:21.840 Cause that would have like, that just ruins your stomach, it's a number of other things,

00:08:25.840 but I don't think that it really, you can get rid of it.

00:08:28.060 When you have, when you have an illness that triggers an autoimmune response, um, it changes

00:08:33.900 your immune system.

00:08:35.280 I'll give you a quick example.

00:08:36.660 You mentioned COVID for when I had, I had COVID for when it was the Delta variant, which

00:08:43.060 is super strong fever for 12 days.

00:08:45.760 I almost, I almost, I think I almost died 12 days, 12 days, fever for 12 days.

00:08:51.360 It wrecked me after I finished with COVID, I could only smell, I, I smelled chlorine and

00:08:57.740 I smelled met metallic smells.

00:09:00.840 And, uh, I talked to one of my friends who's at ENT.

00:09:04.080 He's like, that that's called phantasmia phantom smells.

00:09:06.860 You'll get better.

00:09:08.580 Two weeks, three weeks past those smells went away.

00:09:11.620 I'm like, ah, excellent.

00:09:13.420 Yeah.

00:09:13.640 I knew I'm back in business.

00:09:15.400 I go to a bathroom in Walmart, worst smelling place.

00:09:19.740 First mistake.

00:09:20.340 Oh yeah.

00:09:20.680 That's a huge mistake.

00:09:21.580 Yeah.

00:09:21.940 Ever, ever.

00:09:22.640 So I'm in there and I'm just chilling.

00:09:24.580 My brother's in there with me and he's like, somebody shat on the walls.

00:09:28.300 I'm like, no, dude.

00:09:30.520 He's like, you can't smell that.

00:09:32.460 I'm like, what?

00:09:34.280 He's like, it smells like shit.

00:09:35.680 So he calls my dad over and my dad goes, oh, somebody shat on the wall.

00:09:38.960 I'm like, this can't fucking be.

00:09:41.880 You couldn't smell it?

00:09:42.720 I couldn't smell.

00:09:43.580 So I lost COVID, killed the cells of my olfactory nerve that.

00:09:48.940 Smell shit?

00:09:49.940 That smelled everything, dude.

00:09:51.520 Does that come back?

00:09:52.880 That doesn't come back.

00:09:53.820 You can't smell shit to this day?

00:09:55.600 No, I can't smell bad smell.

00:09:56.740 I just shit right now.

00:09:57.840 My daughter.

00:09:58.460 He's like, I have no idea.

00:09:59.960 I have no idea.

00:10:00.580 So my daughter say that that's a superpower because if somebody ever falls on the sewer,

00:10:06.060 I can jump in there and save them.

00:10:07.380 And it won't be a problem.

00:10:08.240 And it won't be a problem.

00:10:08.920 I just got sick, like I was saying, coming back from New York.

00:10:12.840 And I couldn't handle.

00:10:14.900 So my taste was severely dulled.

00:10:17.900 But anything that had vinegar in it was so off-putting.

00:10:21.880 Like we went to a restaurant.

00:10:23.320 We were eating like ketchup.

00:10:24.680 It was ketchup.

00:10:25.440 And you were like, I can't.

00:10:26.400 Ketchup, mayonnaise, I think has vinegar in it, right?

00:10:29.380 We were just eating ketchup.

00:10:30.580 Maybe it doesn't have it.

00:10:31.580 We were just eating it.

00:10:32.460 We used to do that all the time.

00:10:33.700 And this time I couldn't.

00:10:35.240 But dude, it was like there was something else.

00:10:37.720 Oh, hot sauce.

00:10:38.460 I love hot sauce.

00:10:39.840 I couldn't get it near my face.

00:10:41.500 It was so brutal with the vinegar smell.

00:10:43.280 So yeah, something happens.

00:10:44.800 I don't know what I got hit with this past time.

00:10:48.380 But on that topic of like when your immune system takes a shit, I haven't been good for so long.

00:10:54.420 I had to get out of the Northeast because I was telling you before the show,

00:10:58.140 after the cancer thing, the immune system takes a shit.

00:11:02.100 I get a collapsed lung pneumonia.

00:11:04.860 And every winter that comes, I got shingles.

00:11:08.020 And it was like all this terrible crap, like a cascading series of events.

00:11:12.100 And now, you know, thank God I'm in Florida because I fare a lot better.

00:11:16.940 But I still like once a year, I could feel it trying.

00:11:19.300 Something tries to get me real bad.

00:11:22.060 And right now I've been in the throes of it for like two weeks.

00:11:25.440 And really, it's just like fatigue and stuff like that.

00:11:27.660 But yeah, it's concerning because we've been on this journey to do what we're doing.

00:11:32.720 And we're at this like precipice of like, and he's usually the most excited.

00:11:37.440 I'm just like tired.

00:11:38.760 Yeah, we're on this precipice about to do something really cool.

00:11:41.080 And I'm like, Dave, isn't this cool?

00:11:42.160 And he's just like, just tired.

00:11:44.580 I'm like, yo, dude, I need to be excited.

00:11:46.800 When I leave here, I go home and go to sleep.

00:11:48.940 Dude, we're going to set you up with some crazy IVs, with some exosomes.

00:11:53.320 We're going to do some really good shit.

00:11:54.500 That would be amazing because I'm, dude, I'm tired of it.

00:11:57.420 Rectal IVs that he does best.

00:11:58.620 He's like, they don't have to be, but sure.

00:12:01.620 I'll admit it to them personally.

00:12:03.360 And that's what you want.

00:12:04.180 But when you think about that, the corporate health system, we'll never acknowledge this.

00:12:13.160 If we talk about winter, when we're going towards winter, temperature changes, you have the retarded daylight savings thing.

00:12:20.720 That's a weird move.

00:12:21.440 It's a super weird move.

00:12:22.740 So we're always going towards an era where food is not going to be that fresh.

00:12:28.980 We're going to get some stuff that's kind of been in the shelf for a little while.

00:12:32.280 But nobody tells you, hey, you have to be on your P's and Q's once October starts because that's the season where more respiratory viruses come through, where you have more challenges for your immune system.

00:12:45.080 You have to be more in tune with what you do to your body.

00:12:48.300 You've got to be more clean with your diet.

00:12:50.220 You've got to maybe do an IV a month.

00:12:52.720 Address when you're going to get sick.

00:12:54.900 When you're feeling that you're getting sick, pay attention to it.

00:12:58.840 And don't go to urgent care because urgent cares are the most retarded piece of our health system.

00:13:06.620 There's no doctors in urgent cares.

00:13:09.380 And they're just a patch to get your money, to grab your insurance money, and they send you back.

00:13:15.220 It's good for, let's say, if you hurt yourself, you break something, or a dog bite to you or something like that.

00:13:22.420 Yeah.

00:13:22.800 Because a lot of doctors, I've been looking at them like, no offense.

00:13:26.920 I'm like, what kind of purpose do these guys serve at this point?

00:13:29.740 Because over the last five years, I'm like, how much have we been lied to by these guys?

00:13:33.680 But they do serve a purpose, right?

00:13:35.900 Does urgent care serve a purpose, or is it just complete trash?

00:13:38.780 It's a money grab.

00:13:40.020 It's a money grab.

00:13:40.660 Urgent cares are there to prevent ER visits because ER visits are more expensive because hospitals charge more.

00:13:48.180 So the same system, let's say we have Hospital Corporation of America.

00:13:53.100 They're like, people are coming into the ER.

00:13:54.940 The insurances don't want to pay when you have a visit to their hospital.

00:14:01.160 They have to bill the insurance, and they have to do all this paperwork.

00:14:03.940 So let's make a service that's less intense.

00:14:08.180 We're not going to staff it with doctors.

00:14:09.660 We're going to staff it with mid-levels.

00:14:11.120 I know, and not shitting on mid-levels, right?

00:14:12.800 We're just saying nurse practitioners, physician assistants.

00:14:15.620 You pay them less.

00:14:17.440 So we're going to do it, maybe a lighter staff.

00:14:19.540 Maybe we're not going to have a CT scan.

00:14:21.080 Maybe we're just going to have x-rays.

00:14:22.860 And that way, we capture the patients in the urgent care, and we'll bill that urgent care fee,

00:14:29.740 and we won't have trouble with the insurance because it'll be apart from the hospital.

00:14:33.120 Because if you're attached to the hospital, immediately that cost goes up.

00:14:37.160 The same way that if you have an insurance, let's say you have an insurance, and Toplopsa here doesn't have an insurance.

00:14:44.880 You go to the hospital, and you get a CT scan of your abdomen.

00:14:49.520 Yep.

00:14:49.720 And, oh, well, the CT scan is going to be $1,500.

00:14:53.980 You haven't paid your deductible yet, so you're going to have to pay that $1,500.

00:14:57.740 You're like, shit, I have an insurance, but this is a good deal.

00:14:59.900 But Toplopsa here knows Dr. Jared and hits me up.

00:15:05.120 Hey, my belly hurts.

00:15:06.320 I need a CT scan.

00:15:07.600 I don't want to use my insurance.

00:15:09.100 I don't have insurance.

00:15:10.140 Is it going to ruin me?

00:15:11.100 I'm like, no, no, no.

00:15:12.040 I'm going to send you to this mom-and-pop shop CT scan place.

00:15:15.660 Yep.

00:15:16.160 It's going to cost you $240.

00:15:18.620 And then you come see me, and the visit is going to be $50.

00:15:21.680 We'll take care of whatever is in there.

00:15:23.000 So at the end of the day, you get a visit and a CT scan for around $300, where you went

00:15:29.800 to the corporate system, having an insurance, so you think you're covered, you think you're

00:15:34.140 safe, but no, you get hit by that deductible, and you think you have the feel.

00:15:41.300 I have the insurance card in my wallet, but in reality, you're just feeding the system

00:15:48.380 and not getting adequate care, because then you're going to have to go to your doctor.

00:15:51.540 You already paid for that co-pay for the imaging study.

00:15:56.080 Now you're going to have to pay the co-pay in the corporate office.

00:16:00.740 And all that stuff, I'm doing good.

00:16:03.780 You know, if they fleeced me, it was good, but I have a $6,500 deductible.

00:16:08.540 This is working for my deductible.

00:16:10.300 Let's say you're in your 30s.

00:16:11.480 That was a big health issue.

00:16:13.400 You're not going to get to that $6,500 deductible.

00:16:16.920 So insurance covers everything.

00:16:18.060 So once January comes around, that timer resets, $6,500 again.

00:16:22.880 That's crazy.

00:16:23.220 So every time you have a health issue, you're the one paying for it anyways.

00:16:26.780 Even if you have insurance, you're not having insurance.

00:16:28.520 People feel desperate.

00:16:29.800 I'm like, I don't have an insurance.

00:16:31.400 I'm in danger.

00:16:32.340 I'm like, no, no, no.

00:16:34.080 Get yourself a catastrophic life insurance that will cover 80% of, get yourself a really

00:16:41.320 good life insurance or catastrophic insurance, will run you about $200 a month.

00:16:47.060 So if you have a surgery, appendicitis, or you need to be hospitalized, you have a good

00:16:54.000 insurance, not health insurance.

00:16:56.740 You have good personal insurance to cover your costs, 80% of your costs.

00:17:00.360 You're going to pay a little bit of that.

00:17:02.020 You can negotiate with hospitals the rest because you're not going with insurances that

00:17:06.660 have a contracted rate with the hospitals.

00:17:08.880 This is what I need to talk to you about this very soon because we wouldn't have, we would

00:17:13.720 have never started what we're doing now.

00:17:15.460 This, uh, I guess this, uh, entrepreneurial venture of what we're doing and how, how much

00:17:20.160 we built it.

00:17:20.640 I wouldn't have even continued with top lobster because when I first moved here, I was working

00:17:25.200 for Odyssey and then I like lost that job.

00:17:27.820 And then I was like doing other stuff where I'm making enough money to survive, but I didn't

00:17:32.020 have insurance and Christina was not working.

00:17:34.280 So I started working for the County just to do insurance.

00:17:37.620 And I'm like, I told my wife, which is this pretty, she much, she pretty much works for

00:17:42.620 insurance.

00:17:43.060 Like we, she makes money, but it's like, it's insurance that we need for the kids.

00:17:47.520 And like, I, I told her, I was like, listen, I can't build anything more meaningful if I'm

00:17:53.720 going to be here working for insurances.

00:17:55.460 Before that, it was just breaking my back, like paying so much money for this shit.

00:17:58.580 And I'm like, I just, it's unsustainable.

00:18:00.520 To the tune of almost the American public, the middle class is paying around for a family

00:18:07.200 of four, right?

00:18:08.840 It's the average family.

00:18:10.160 You're not putting more people in the population.

00:18:12.040 You're just replacing your wife and you with two kids.

00:18:14.680 Maybe, um, you're paying around maybe $1,500 through the Obamacare debacle, $1,500 a month.

00:18:22.880 That's, that's like paying a mortgage.

00:18:25.380 So you're paying your mortgage and you're paying another mortgage, but that mortgage,

00:18:29.140 the second health mortgage that you're paying doesn't get you anything because you have that

00:18:32.660 deductible.

00:18:34.140 All that stuff was designed to fund Obamacare and fund the, the plans that we think we're

00:18:43.600 doing good, right?

00:18:44.840 The people that have less money, they're going to get care.

00:18:48.140 I'm getting fleece.

00:18:49.200 The middle class is getting crunched, but I'm doing something good.

00:18:52.000 But that money is going towards insurances.

00:18:56.280 So insurances manage that.

00:18:58.760 And, you know, if I ask any of you to, will insurance liberate those funds freely and be

00:19:05.360 really altruistic and help the poor people?

00:19:08.180 No.

00:19:08.720 So we fucking know.

00:19:10.040 We're all pretty accustomed to it being a gigantic scam.

00:19:12.900 And that's kind of like what the general sentiment is.

00:19:15.620 All insurance.

00:19:16.280 Yeah.

00:19:16.660 Where I'm from Coney Island, we had a hurricane Sandy.

00:19:19.540 Oh yeah.

00:19:19.880 And it's like, oh, is it a storm?

00:19:21.560 Is it, you got hurricane coverage, but this was a tropical storm.

00:19:24.860 You're like, that kind of is shit.

00:19:26.040 Exactly.

00:19:26.500 The water wasn't cold enough.

00:19:28.200 Yeah.

00:19:28.480 We can't cover it.

00:19:29.100 Whatever they can figure out to not, you pay this thing constantly and they'll figure

00:19:33.780 out any way they possibly can.

00:19:35.200 But you can't figure out.

00:19:35.660 It was reclassified to super storm Sandy because they can get around different kind of insurance.

00:19:40.720 So it's a hurricane when it hits, but then in hindsight, was that how it worked?

00:19:44.180 And, you know, people, these people pay their insurance their entire life.

00:19:47.160 And then when they finally do need it, they're like, can't help you, dude.

00:19:50.860 Sorry.

00:19:51.140 Yeah.

00:19:51.560 So it's health insurance, car insurance, you know, virtually all of it is doing that in

00:19:57.040 some way, shape or form.

00:19:58.600 The name of the game is...

00:19:59.500 Shout out Patrick Bet David.

00:20:01.400 Wow.

00:20:01.660 What did he do?

00:20:02.220 He's just...

00:20:02.840 That he's an insurance salesman.

00:20:04.060 Oh, is he really?

00:20:05.020 Yeah.

00:20:05.480 He kind of gives me that vibe.

00:20:07.120 Yeah.

00:20:07.780 Which is like a kind of a not great thing.

00:20:09.840 Like, give me the vibe of an insurance.

00:20:11.060 That's an insult.

00:20:12.160 You give me the vibe of an insurance salesman.

00:20:14.540 You're not even selling anything, really.

00:20:16.260 No, you're not.

00:20:16.920 You're just saying, hey, give me money.

00:20:18.580 And I promise that when you need me, I'll figure a way out of it.

00:20:22.220 That's what you're saying.

00:20:23.120 That's what it is.

00:20:23.700 That is.

00:20:24.120 Yeah.

00:20:24.300 That's what it is.

00:20:24.780 The answer to that is very simple.

00:20:26.900 You have to find a doctor that does direct primary care that will be transparent.

00:20:31.820 Hey, every time you come here, this is what the visit is going to cost.

00:20:35.480 In my case, in Tampa, Florida, every time you come to the clinic, it costs like $50 for

00:20:40.220 a visit.

00:20:40.760 That's it.

00:20:41.280 You're not going to get billed for anything else.

00:20:43.040 There's no compromise.

00:20:45.020 There's other doctors that say, hey, I want to do like a monthly subscription.

00:20:48.840 That's cool too.

00:20:50.020 All that stuff is going to be a lot more profitable for you because you're going to have direct

00:20:55.980 relationship with the doctor.

00:20:57.460 Try to call a doctor from XYZ Hospital.

00:21:00.100 No, you're going to get a machine every single time.

00:21:03.160 All my patients have my cell phone.

00:21:05.580 All of them have my cell phone.

00:21:07.440 Do they call me sometimes at awkward times?

00:21:09.180 Yes.

00:21:10.280 But it's worth it because I get to result.

00:21:12.640 Sometimes we have retarded questions and that's, it's life.

00:21:16.240 It's, it's a, it's a, a convoluted industry.

00:21:19.300 So, so obviously within the West, healthcare itself eludes the average person, but then

00:21:25.620 navigating the apparatus of the healthcare system is a whole nother bag.

00:21:29.360 So when you're talking about health and nutrition and fitness and all that, that is its own school

00:21:33.380 of understanding.

00:21:34.240 And then layer on top of that, now I need you to navigate the canals of this really convoluted

00:21:40.340 system.

00:21:40.700 That almost seems like purposely difficult to understand.

00:21:43.660 When I was going through the whole cancer thing, that's the word.

00:21:45.800 It was like purposefully, purposefully call this thing.

00:21:48.920 Okay.

00:21:49.180 No, that's not it.

00:21:50.060 We're going to transfer you to here.

00:21:51.400 You transfer my call to this.

00:21:52.640 We're going to, we're going to transfer you to a specialist.

00:21:54.320 Now you're communicating with three different people.

00:21:56.400 They're passing you back and forth.

00:21:58.160 Sometimes there's a disconnect between them.

00:21:59.680 You're just like this volleyball that the health industry smacks up in the air.

00:22:04.080 And then hopefully you land in the correct place.

00:22:06.540 And, you know, it's, it's just this, once you get hit with it, you, you, you know, if

00:22:10.800 you have insurance or whatever, you get hit with this unbelievable bill, which I'm still

00:22:14.280 struggling to figure out how, when you get like an itemized breakdown of a hospital visit,

00:22:19.320 it's like the acetaminophen that they gave you, that gave you autism costs, you know, $700.

00:22:25.540 I'd love to ask about that too.

00:22:27.040 But, but, you know, I don't understand.

00:22:30.620 Maybe you can help me understand that.

00:22:31.460 It's like stadium prices, you know?

00:22:33.320 Right.

00:22:33.620 Yes.

00:22:33.840 And how is that okay?

00:22:34.580 I don't understand that.

00:22:35.540 How could you give me this thing?

00:22:36.980 I can go and pay for the autism myself on the counter and it's, and it's $12 for a whole

00:22:41.900 bottle of autism, but they can give you a one pill and they can, they can charge you.

00:22:47.120 I mean, it's like, sometimes you'll look at it.

00:22:48.420 It's like seven, $800 for the aspirin that they bought you.

00:22:52.240 Ivy bag, an Ivy bag.

00:22:53.680 I buy an Ivy bag and Ivy bag is like $11.

00:22:57.040 The line is maybe nine.

00:23:00.020 The catheter is maybe four or $5.

00:23:03.180 Okay.

00:23:03.660 A hospital will charge $600 for it.

00:23:06.040 How is that?

00:23:06.560 Okay.

00:23:06.720 How is that?

00:23:07.220 How is that permissible?

00:23:08.400 Is it because, is there some sort of like subsidization going on?

00:23:13.000 So this, this, this, this question gives me a boner.

00:23:17.760 This is, this is, this is what people need to know.

00:23:20.400 Yeah.

00:23:20.640 In the 1940s, a little organization called PBMs, pharmacy benefit managers, wasn't put in place

00:23:31.440 by insurances and our wonderful politicians that kind of lobbied that stuff and allowed

00:23:35.200 it to happen.

00:23:35.700 And it's an organization that negotiates prices between the insurances and the pharmaceutical

00:23:44.320 companies.

00:23:44.900 And they dictate what price the medications should have.

00:23:48.500 There's another organization like that for hospitals.

00:23:51.460 And it's the same thing.

00:23:52.660 They set the prices and they negotiate.

00:23:55.720 And that organization keeps part of the profits.

00:23:58.960 They're allowed by law to keep part of the profits.

00:24:01.800 So there, that's, I was going to say, where is the, where's, where, where's the model?

00:24:06.720 How do you determine?

00:24:07.580 But it seems like it's determined by the most profit.

00:24:10.440 It's internal and not transparent.

00:24:12.180 So when that's the reason healthcare before in the 1920s, 1920s to 1940s and beyond, you

00:24:19.720 know, before that we did some shady shit.

00:24:22.080 Okay.

00:24:22.180 We might've used some leeches.

00:24:24.040 We might've did some, you know, you know, you know, so it was, it was, uh, it was the

00:24:30.940 West, but, um, from, from that time it was direct pay to, to doctors and, and, uh, and

00:24:38.420 pharmacies and hospitals even, and hospitals weren't for profit.

00:24:41.800 Hospitals were part of like church groups, or they were funded by a big company like Kaiser

00:24:48.960 permanent permanente to take care of their employees.

00:24:51.520 But now it's an, an industry after 9-11, it became an industry.

00:24:55.760 9-11, uh, after, uh, something happened around that day.

00:25:00.560 I forget what it was, but yeah, it escapes me.

00:25:03.600 And a lot of CEOs decided, you know, the, when the, um, the industry falls, when the, um,

00:25:10.440 what's the word I'm looking for?

00:25:11.960 I became a lot of very Puerto Rican for, I'm forgetting words.

00:25:15.220 Um, when the stock prices fall and companies, they figured out what's the, what's, what's

00:25:22.560 recession proof, what's war proof, what will keep going?

00:25:27.560 Hospitals.

00:25:28.200 Yeah.

00:25:28.440 There's always going to be sick people.

00:25:29.920 So that's when CEOs, hospital CEOs became a really hot career.

00:25:34.220 And a lot of people said, I'm not going to go trading.

00:25:36.460 That could be up and down.

00:25:38.540 I could be mediocre and use doctors and make a lot of money.

00:25:44.160 So it makes sense.

00:25:45.840 Well, you look at the state of things now, uh, clearly the best industry to have invested

00:25:50.360 in, in the past decade would have been, uh, the pharmaceutical industry, the medical industry

00:25:55.600 at large.

00:25:56.540 And then it starts to become this big, uh, uh, sort of speculation as to, you know, here,

00:26:03.620 here's a nefarious example is cancer, a treatable and curable, uh, uh, disease.

00:26:10.660 And is it instead, uh, relegated to management so that the industry can form a parasitic relationship

00:26:19.760 with the cancer victim or cancer patient for the rest of their life?

00:26:23.360 Yeah.

00:26:23.580 The answer to that question is very direct.

00:26:25.920 It's, we have to visualize how we think about cancer in a way.

00:26:29.720 Cancer is the inability of the body to take care of steady and organized growth in an organ

00:26:36.840 system.

00:26:37.260 It could be the blood, it could be leukemia, it could be the prostate, it could be the

00:26:41.260 testicles, it could be the, a number of things.

00:26:44.400 But if we categorize all those things under that word cancer, we think that the management

00:26:50.420 of the disease is equal for absolutely everything.

00:26:54.300 You know, if you get in a testicular cancer, you cut your ball off and you check a PET scan

00:26:59.700 to see if there's any metastasis, I'm good.

00:27:02.700 Um, that's, that's a very easily treatable, but there are sarcomas, bone cancers, bone marrow

00:27:10.480 cancers that are flexible.

00:27:12.120 And it called them like the same thing.

00:27:13.780 Like it's cancer, cancer, cancer is when you, when you categorize it under that, it becomes

00:27:18.280 so difficult and so muddy to really understand.

00:27:21.960 So it's the inability, okay, we're, our DNA keeps degrading and degrading the older we get.

00:27:29.980 That's undoubtedly that happens.

00:27:32.260 We're not managing that.

00:27:33.740 Well, our food is not, doesn't help.

00:27:36.500 Yeah.

00:27:36.660 Uh, stress doesn't help.

00:27:38.300 The nine to five lifestyle doesn't help.

00:27:39.900 Being cooped up in your house, watching your fucking phone all day doesn't help.

00:27:43.820 That's what I was told by the way, when I, when I was diagnosed with cancer, uh, they just

00:27:47.540 said that the likeliest situation was stress, it was stress induced, which is a wild thing

00:27:52.980 to think of because at the time I was working my ass off, trying to become a head foreman

00:27:59.460 of my fabrication shop.

00:28:01.320 And I achieved that.

00:28:02.580 Dr. Jack, can you just move in just a little bit?

00:28:04.260 A little bit.

00:28:04.660 Yeah.

00:28:04.820 Yeah.

00:28:04.980 Sorry.

00:28:05.480 Okay.

00:28:06.040 Um, one out right there.

00:28:07.080 Get you in a good shot.

00:28:07.940 You go ahead.

00:28:08.320 But I, I achieved that.

00:28:09.880 And, uh, and then I got cancer, you know?

00:28:12.420 So it's like, yeah, I, you know, just a wild thing.

00:28:14.900 This idea that you could work, uh, hard and stress yourself out to try to achieve something

00:28:19.740 and support your family.

00:28:20.960 And then it's like, oh, that stress gave you this bump on your nut.

00:28:23.700 And then, you know, if you don't treat that, that's going to be a real issue.

00:28:26.600 Yeah.

00:28:27.120 Yeah.

00:28:27.400 It's, we have to think about cancer as a unbalance in the body.

00:28:31.780 Oh, we're going to, it's the name stuck.

00:28:35.120 So we have to treat it, but we have to understand the body as a whole in order to, to move forward

00:28:41.120 and to have different alternatives of treatment.

00:28:43.840 Uh, and you're absolutely right.

00:28:45.520 There's, you know, when you have leukemia and you have your multiple myeloma and these

00:28:49.380 cancers that are going to change your life, um, expectancy and it's, you have to be clear

00:28:55.220 and doctors are not clear.

00:28:56.640 The health industry right now is corporatized.

00:28:59.620 Yeah.

00:28:59.980 So all these big players after Obamacare, second time I mentioned it, it's going to be many

00:29:03.740 more, um, after Obamacare, they made it illegal for doctors to own hospitals, which is absolutely

00:29:10.720 just, just the grossest thing that nobody has had reactions to.

00:29:15.800 So who owns hospitals then?

00:29:17.280 The corporations, you know, what the, you know, what the, what do you think is the thought

00:29:23.260 process of regulators, lawmakers to make it illegal for doctors to own hospitals?

00:29:29.560 Give me your thought.

00:29:30.680 I would want the hospitals to be profit-based rather than like run by somebody who would

00:29:35.820 have a solution or, or like, like guiding in, in the correct manner, I suppose.

00:29:39.560 I got one.

00:29:40.480 It's to keep, uh, there's effectively, if the doctor owns the hospital, then everything

00:29:45.660 has to pass through him.

00:29:47.180 So if you're, uh, uh, you know, let's say a company that has a pharmaceutical that you

00:29:51.840 want to cut corners and you want to get this out to the public and the doctor is going to

00:29:54.480 scrutinize that and stand in the way.

00:29:55.860 We don't want that.

00:29:57.000 A corporation can be won over with money probably more effectively than like an,

00:30:00.680 individual can, because the corporation is a diffusion of responsibility amongst multiple

00:30:05.340 individuals.

00:30:05.980 It has a board.

00:30:06.400 It has a board, right?

00:30:07.400 And you can pay off that board.

00:30:08.500 You could influence that board.

00:30:10.140 Uh, it's, it's much easier to deal with that than one moral individual who's standing in

00:30:14.320 the way.

00:30:15.000 Yeah.

00:30:15.520 Yeah.

00:30:15.820 You said it perfectly.

00:30:17.240 And the reasoning behind that law, which I, Obamacare, we're going to give care to

00:30:22.540 everybody.

00:30:23.100 And doctors can't own hospitals.

00:30:24.240 That was, that was a little thing under the carpet.

00:30:26.560 And they said, no, it's that, you know, if doctors own hospitals, they're going to refer

00:30:30.720 their own patients and there's a conflict of interest.

00:30:33.840 So they're worried about that level of corruption.

00:30:35.660 Yeah.

00:30:36.120 But if, you know, if Benito hospital, just big name Benito hospital has Benito clinic next

00:30:44.340 to it, they're still going to refer patients to their own health system to get CT scans

00:30:50.040 in their own hospital.

00:30:51.780 It was just a way to get out the people that have the moral responsibility, the people that

00:30:56.760 have the Hippocratic oath to, there you go.

00:30:59.900 Red beard just said, shout out red beard in the chat, Hippocratic oath.

00:31:02.860 Yeah.

00:31:03.060 And, and, and let me tell you something, when you're the owner of a hospital, it falls on

00:31:07.880 you.

00:31:08.180 So if you're an individual doctor who has the Hippocratic oath, who's, you know, do

00:31:12.220 no harm, um, all that responsibility falls on you.

00:31:16.240 Yeah.

00:31:16.840 Whereas as soon as it goes to a corporation, it loses a face, it loses accountability.

00:31:22.080 Then what are you shouting at?

00:31:23.360 You're shouting at a logo, you know, and trying to hold it responsible.

00:31:26.260 And it's a board of dudes who, whose names you don't know, whose faces you never see.

00:31:30.660 They're playing golf.

00:31:31.540 They're playing golf.

00:31:32.480 Exactly.

00:31:33.020 Yeah.

00:31:33.220 So much better a system that has one person.

00:31:36.020 Cause this is like what you say when you sometimes think about like, well, maybe the

00:31:38.900 idea of a monarch isn't bad.

00:31:40.140 Cause at least you know who to hang, you know what I mean?

00:31:43.720 At least you have one dude's face and they're accountable.

00:31:47.880 You know what I mean?

00:31:48.540 And you can look at them and you can, you can hold them responsible and, you know, drag

00:31:52.520 them out into the public square and, you know, skin them alive.

00:31:55.800 No, I, you know, not that, but, but I am, I think that, that it's a better system, uh,

00:31:59.580 and that it's, it's really, um, that diffusion of responsibility is probably the main component

00:32:06.100 that's at play there when you're dealing with a corporation.

00:32:08.280 And the relationship with the doctor, you have to have a relationship with your doctor.

00:32:11.260 Your doctor has to know you since you were young, follow you through your life.

00:32:16.000 Yeah.

00:32:16.320 Have care about you care.

00:32:19.120 All my patients, you know, when I, when I sit down with them, I spent like an hour on

00:32:23.760 my patients, even though I'm charging $50.

00:32:25.660 I'm like, let me sit down and let me get to know you, let me get, get to know what makes

00:32:29.900 you tick.

00:32:30.660 Let me, let me know.

00:32:31.720 You're spending an hour with them.

00:32:32.740 I'm spending an hour.

00:32:33.220 Dude, when I had cancer, these people would be in and out in five minutes.

00:32:36.700 To be honest, $50 an hour is not a bad living.

00:32:40.040 I mean.

00:32:41.180 No, and the, and, and people, all my other friends, I don't have many friends that are

00:32:44.980 a doctor.

00:32:45.340 I have some because they're horrible hangs.

00:32:49.020 I'm also like, you're crazy.

00:32:51.400 You're not going to make money.

00:32:52.560 And I'm like, yes, I am.

00:32:53.560 Because I have a small office.

00:32:55.020 I don't, I don't have to pay a huge overhead.

00:32:57.360 I don't have to pay a gigantic electronic system to bill.

00:33:02.120 And I don't have to, to use, uh, insurances to get my money.

00:33:06.440 Let's say I have a blue cross blue shield patient or a blue cross patient.

00:33:10.460 I have to pay 10% of that visit amount to my billing company and blue cross blue shield

00:33:17.400 will pay me 75 to $80.

00:33:18.900 So that slices off in, in order to have insurances, I have to have staff in the, in the office to

00:33:27.520 do, you know, the billing and to help me documentation that takes another percentage.

00:33:31.560 At the end of the day, I might take home $40.

00:33:34.300 So by me using that and just saying, Hey, I don't, I'm, I don't use insurance by the way,

00:33:40.760 blue cross blue shield started since 1920.

00:33:43.140 So they've been around.

00:33:44.900 Okay.

00:33:45.820 Um, and, uh, before they would beg doctors to take their insurances.

00:33:50.440 They're like parasites.

00:33:51.720 You're like parasites.

00:33:53.320 I have to pay a credentialing.

00:33:55.160 If let's say I'm a doctor, Dr.

00:33:57.240 Jerry starting, I just graduated.

00:33:58.820 I want to open an office.

00:34:00.460 Um, and, uh, I have to pay an, an, uh, credentialing company.

00:34:04.300 I have to pay them thousands of dollars, maybe 3,500, $4,500 just to put all my credentials

00:34:10.140 in one place and say to an insurance, please, please accept my office.

00:34:14.720 I want patients.

00:34:16.320 And then I get, how much is that?

00:34:17.800 You said maybe 35 to 4,500.

00:34:19.780 And they're being really modest.

00:34:21.440 Yeah.

00:34:21.900 It could be more.

00:34:23.080 And I have to give them my credential show in my office.

00:34:25.240 Hey, this is, this is the type of doctor I am.

00:34:27.280 This is what I bring to the table.

00:34:28.800 Can you give me patients?

00:34:30.160 But guess who has the big contracts, the big systems.

00:34:32.960 So they could turn around United healthcare.

00:34:35.400 Um, when I did my application first at the beginning, uh, they said, we're not accepting

00:34:40.420 new doctors for the past six years.

00:34:43.020 Cause they're good.

00:34:44.260 They already have all these big contracts to all the kids that graduated med school.

00:34:48.120 Oh my God.

00:34:48.940 They can't have their own practice.

00:34:50.600 So what do they do?

00:34:52.680 Is it just become part of the system?

00:34:54.240 You go into like advantage care doctor.

00:34:56.780 Yeah.

00:34:56.960 Yeah.

00:34:57.060 Yeah.

00:34:57.260 Yeah.

00:34:57.960 Exactly.

00:34:58.540 So if they have an idea that like my idea, like what I do at vast care, oh man, I really

00:35:04.880 want to form connections with my patients.

00:35:06.940 Because when you spend that one hour with your patient at the beginning, every other appointment

00:35:11.540 is not going to be one hour, right?

00:35:13.220 You're going to have a relationship.

00:35:14.560 Your patient has your phone number.

00:35:16.320 Hey doctor, um, you prescribed this medication.

00:35:20.680 It's slimy.

00:35:21.660 Should I take it?

00:35:22.260 No, that's a suppository.

00:35:23.780 It goes in your butt.

00:35:24.580 That's a real, that's something real that happened, by the way.

00:35:27.920 That's a real, that's a real story.

00:35:29.360 That's a real story.

00:35:30.880 This tastes weird.

00:35:31.740 This tastes weird.

00:35:33.340 If you, if you had, if you, if you call, if that happened and you're in a corporate system,

00:35:40.020 you call, uh, Benito health system and they're like, press two.

00:35:44.460 Oh, the worst dude.

00:35:45.840 And you're going to end up eating a suppository.

00:35:47.840 Yeah.

00:35:48.100 Don't do that.

00:35:50.160 Suppositories go somewhere else.

00:35:51.880 Dude.

00:35:52.160 Let me tell you though.

00:35:53.220 I've, I've been through the meat grinder.

00:35:55.040 I've been through that system.

00:35:56.340 It is a nightmare, especially that automated system where it's like, go here, press this

00:36:00.920 to go here, press this.

00:36:01.800 Then it's like, God forbid, something shouldn't sound exactly like what it is you're looking

00:36:05.900 for.

00:36:06.220 You're, you're pressing a number that brings you to a place that you're not supposed to

00:36:09.380 be.

00:36:09.920 Don't worry.

00:36:10.560 They're going to transfer you to the place where you, and it's just like this never ending

00:36:13.740 half of the battle, maybe more than half of the battle.

00:36:16.900 As far as time allocation goes is dedicated to just navigating those systems to find somebody

00:36:23.200 to speak to.

00:36:24.080 It sounds what the doctor conundrum sounds like is, uh, is the food conundrum.

00:36:28.100 It sounds like the same thing where everybody could technically grow their own food or at

00:36:32.780 least parts of their own food, but we're relying on these big systems that have these

00:36:38.760 barriers of entry.

00:36:39.980 Yeah.

00:36:40.600 And it's just like, it's designed this way.

00:36:43.540 And this is a conspiracy show.

00:36:44.680 Well, we're going to.

00:36:45.980 Yeah.

00:36:46.380 It sounds like a parasitic relationship.

00:36:49.020 These things, uh, latch themselves onto, uh, a system and then they start to siphon off

00:36:55.420 funding from it and everything.

00:36:56.540 And then because of that, the system is forced to increase the demand for the funding.

00:37:01.240 So the funding goes way up and, and then the, the parasite just increases what percentage

00:37:06.080 of the funding.

00:37:06.560 But it also, it also like narrows, uh, narrows the funnel and like, like the, it, it creates

00:37:12.180 the barrier.

00:37:12.660 It's the same exact playbook that it's done with.

00:37:14.920 Uh, well, I, the food industry is one that just pops to mind, but it's like, if there were

00:37:19.560 more doctors, would this be less of an issue?

00:37:23.360 Because then more doctors could technically practice the, the way you're doing it or, and

00:37:28.920 also doctors.

00:37:29.340 You would have to have more doctors with balls.

00:37:30.960 And what happens is all the new kids that are coming in the system, they're bombarded in

00:37:35.880 the seventies, uh, the, the wonderful seventies, you know, we had Bush and we had doctors that

00:37:41.700 cared, right?

00:37:43.000 We had doctors that go through med school.

00:37:45.900 It wasn't that difficult to get through med school, uh, that it wasn't that expensive.

00:37:50.300 You had to take a singular test, uh, the MBME, uh, to practice medicine.

00:37:56.940 Uh, and you kept up, you kept up with, uh, with the literature and continuing medical education.

00:38:02.600 Now entering med school, you have to take the MCAT cost you around $800, $900, right?

00:38:09.580 Just to take it for a college kid.

00:38:10.700 Just to take the MCAT.

00:38:11.820 Let's say you pass the MCAT.

00:38:13.540 What's next.

00:38:14.740 Okay.

00:38:15.100 You got to pay the 60 or 80 grand, um, a year plus books, a hundred and some thousand dollars.

00:38:23.280 Uh, second year med school rolls around.

00:38:25.340 You have to take the USMLE step one, which is a, a $1,500 exam.

00:38:31.020 Um, you know, 1100 questions, A, B, C, D, E, which is useless.

00:38:36.700 We're talking on top of your schooling, on top of your schooling.

00:38:39.040 Yeah.

00:38:39.680 If you don't pass that, yeah, you're done.

00:38:44.080 So go through all of that.

00:38:45.280 And now when you're finally done and you, and you meet that resistance that won't allow

00:38:49.380 you to get approved for the funding or whatever, to, to open up your own practice, keep pushing.

00:38:54.780 It's like, these people just want to be done with it, but this is how, I mean, it's genius

00:38:58.960 because yeah, it beats the crap out of you.

00:39:00.880 So when you come out, you have two options.

00:39:02.800 You can either keep fighting and become an individual practitioner with your own place

00:39:06.700 and all this, or you can go, there's a lot more fight ahead of me.

00:39:10.880 I'm just going to go into the system.

00:39:12.480 They wouldn't have been able to as effectively do what they did with COVID because the doc,

00:39:17.800 yeah.

00:39:18.360 Oof.

00:39:18.640 I mean, I'm looking at him right now, I'm kind of suspicious still because he's like

00:39:22.100 doctor, but it's like the doctors went, you know, just in lockstep with what was told.

00:39:27.580 Yeah.

00:39:28.040 And the reason is it's because it seems like the money that they've put in, and I get it,

00:39:32.420 they put in tons of their own time and hundreds of thousands of dollars.

00:39:37.240 Yeah.

00:39:37.420 Yeah.

00:39:37.660 When you, when you, you have a baby elephant, you tie his leg, you put a stake on the ground.

00:39:42.140 They can't pull it out.

00:39:43.000 So when that elephant is, is, is an adult, he's like, Oh, I'm fucked.

00:39:48.560 I can't move.

00:39:49.440 I might as well stay here.

00:39:50.680 Doesn't realize he can, but he can.

00:39:52.840 I'm a, I was born poor public housing project.

00:39:57.780 I don't give a fuck.

00:39:59.260 I want to do what I want to do.

00:40:00.680 And I didn't jive when I was in Iowa.

00:40:02.960 I had once, you know, I was in a, in a car.

00:40:06.080 The CEOs were trying to push me to go to JBS and attend the patients.

00:40:10.580 You got a lot of Hispanic patients and JBS, a lot of Mexican people.

00:40:13.400 They're like, Oh, great.

00:40:14.200 You've lived in Mexico before.

00:40:15.880 Oh, this is going to be great.

00:40:17.460 And I, I jump in there in their Cadillac with them.

00:40:20.300 I'm driving over there and they're talking about their, their Gucci socks and hookers and blow.

00:40:25.880 And I'm like, no way.

00:40:26.580 Really?

00:40:27.000 Dude, 100%.

00:40:28.060 100%.

00:40:28.700 They had Gucci socks.

00:40:29.680 They're like rock stars.

00:40:30.740 Like rock stars.

00:40:31.680 And here I am with, you know, $80 scrubs.

00:40:34.780 Yeah.

00:40:35.280 I'm like, and they're just talking and laughing and golf.

00:40:38.400 And I'm like, Oh, I just wanted to just open up from the rear seat.

00:40:41.980 Yeah.

00:40:42.440 And just, you know, let's all die.

00:40:45.080 There's Gucci's car.

00:40:46.160 This is so fucking.

00:40:47.640 So the, what you notice immediately when you brush up against those people, you know, they

00:40:54.320 called me to a meeting.

00:40:55.240 Hey, and I'm very boisterous with the things that I believe in and I don't care.

00:41:00.040 You know, I've been already, but what are you going to do?

00:41:01.520 I'm be poor again.

00:41:02.560 I don't give a fuck.

00:41:03.980 Being shot at.

00:41:04.960 I've been doing tons of things happened back home.

00:41:07.240 So, so I don't, I don't fear any of that.

00:41:09.760 So they called me over there.

00:41:11.720 Like, Hey, you, you, uh, you wrote something in social media that, you know, we didn't like

00:41:16.820 for a company.

00:41:18.080 Do you remember what it was?

00:41:19.440 No, I, I was mad because they didn't hire a, you know, my wife, she's a psychologist.

00:41:25.420 And they told me when I was interviewing that I go, no, we're going to hire her.

00:41:29.480 Uh, because you know, you two are great for the town.

00:41:31.840 Yeah.

00:41:32.200 I never hired her or never even called her.

00:41:34.920 Oh, so you were voicing your opinion on that.

00:41:37.080 I was saying that and just called me over there, wrote me over a thing.

00:41:40.360 And I'm like, yeah, I'll sign it.

00:41:42.800 So I just worked out my contract and just did whatever I wanted.

00:41:47.700 Yeah.

00:41:47.960 And I, I, I, I, I'm going to make a savings and I'm going to do my vision of, of, of medicine.

00:41:54.740 And it's been hard, but patients will take care of you.

00:41:57.720 And young doctors don't have that belief.

00:42:01.580 If you do right by your patients, if you do right by your patients, you create a relationship

00:42:05.220 and you bring out a service that's great.

00:42:09.300 Yeah.

00:42:09.500 That's valuable.

00:42:11.020 It's, they don't care if the illness has no cure.

00:42:14.580 They don't care if you're, if you don't know all of it.

00:42:17.700 If you're not the, you know, a super genius doctor, you just want someone to care.

00:42:22.020 Yep.

00:42:22.480 Yeah.

00:42:22.720 And that's what takes you.

00:42:24.380 And that's that.

00:42:25.060 My message is that my message is that get a doctor that's outside of the corporate system,

00:42:29.720 support that movement.

00:42:31.960 It will change.

00:42:33.440 It will change.

00:42:34.400 Because if not, you're going to be stuck with AI in less than five years.

00:42:39.320 That's coming.

00:42:40.300 Less than five.

00:42:41.020 That's right around the corner.

00:42:41.980 Less than five.

00:42:42.580 Radiology has been taken over by AI.

00:42:44.380 Pathology will soon follow.

00:42:45.860 Yeah.

00:42:46.380 And they're doing research right now.

00:42:48.420 I get emails.

00:42:49.660 I'll share them with you guys later.

00:42:51.120 emails right now of AI companies that want to put a mic on, on your exam room just to

00:42:59.720 hear how you treat patients.

00:43:01.060 Whoa.

00:43:01.860 Oh, like gather data, data gathering.

00:43:04.260 Gather data.

00:43:05.160 Understand the process.

00:43:06.720 Emulate it.

00:43:07.620 Look, I want to talk more about that, but we're at the 42 minute mark.

00:43:10.940 Let's let it go.

00:43:12.060 You want to let it go?

00:43:12.840 Okay.

00:43:13.020 Yeah.

00:43:13.240 We usually go.

00:43:14.560 We kick the pores out at 30 minutes, but we'll let, we'll let them.

00:43:17.140 We'll let them keep peeing in.

00:43:18.060 This, this episode will be, uh, after the episode, uh, finishes, we're going to take

00:43:22.700 it down to edit it, but it'll be back up soon, but let the people that are here live

00:43:26.860 listen live.

00:43:27.460 It's always, uh, it's important information.

00:43:29.620 It's important information, but of course, and, and, and particularly important information

00:43:35.020 because it's medical information, but that is specifically what YouTube doesn't like.

00:43:38.440 Oh yeah.

00:43:38.780 Forget it.

00:43:39.180 That's what YouTube doesn't like is, is medical information.

00:43:41.200 It's called misinformation, which is, which is hilarious because they inundated us with

00:43:44.140 that, uh, in 2020.

00:43:45.520 Yeah.

00:43:45.660 But the, the, they're trying, they're trying to fix it because they, they sent me a request

00:43:49.060 to certify me as a physician.

00:43:50.960 I had to send them my license.

00:43:52.260 So under my YouTube videos, which I don't do that many anymore, it says by a certified

00:43:57.200 healthcare provider.

00:43:58.220 So now you're allowed to, because you're a certified healthcare provider.

00:44:00.600 Right.

00:44:01.200 But they're trying to, they're trying to correct after fucking up.

00:44:03.740 I'm wondering what they're going to do.

00:44:05.180 The lawsuits and all that stuff they received, they're trying to correct.

00:44:07.020 Yeah.

00:44:07.340 I wouldn't Benjamin, uh, already got terminated again.

00:44:09.920 Did you see that?

00:44:11.100 Yeah, he did it the wrong way.

00:44:12.840 Well, I feel like he's also going to try to push it as hard as he possibly can.

00:44:16.580 Well, the, the way that they were not to derail, but they were telling you to, uh, appeal

00:44:23.060 with your old account.

00:44:24.300 Okay.

00:44:24.680 And he created a new one.

00:44:25.840 And if you created a new one, they, they see that as like circumvention.

00:44:28.580 So that's why they banned that account.

00:44:30.660 Oh, okay.

00:44:31.100 Like I don't get around there.

00:44:32.420 I don't know how they're going to behave.

00:44:34.000 They're trying to course.

00:44:34.840 Correct.

00:44:35.340 I honestly, there's still the King.

00:44:37.400 YouTube is the King of content here.

00:44:39.240 But they've gone so far.

00:44:41.100 Like they've, they've done too much for me to trust anything they say at this point.

00:44:44.440 So it's not worth it.

00:44:45.540 It's not worth it.

00:44:46.780 I rather post on, it's the same company, but I rather post a little bit on Instagram.

00:44:51.740 And I just, I'm telling you, I'm, I like, I like podcasting, but I really love the personal

00:44:58.140 connection as you may.

00:44:59.740 When I, it's so, when I have a patient in front of me, they're getting all this information

00:45:03.340 in a nutshell and it opens up to me.

00:45:05.540 I can't believe, you know, I had an older patient asked me for a little Viagra.

00:45:10.240 You know, he wanted to lay the law down in his anniversary.

00:45:13.460 Get erect, you know, get that, get that power.

00:45:17.380 So I give him the prescription.

00:45:18.920 I tell him, don't pull out your insurance.

00:45:24.280 Just, he forgot.

00:45:25.820 He was old.

00:45:26.760 He calls me.

00:45:27.460 Hey doctor, you're trying to charge me $560 for this.

00:45:31.680 Damn, for boners?

00:45:32.900 For using his insurance?

00:45:34.500 For the medication with insurance.

00:45:35.660 I'm going to just, just grab your prescription back from them.

00:45:38.340 Take it to another pharmacy.

00:45:39.560 But when you take it to the counter, just say, this is going to be cash pay.

00:45:44.140 Guess how much it was for cash pay.

00:45:47.380 Less than a hundred.

00:45:48.820 $29.

00:45:49.740 Dude, what?

00:45:51.360 This guy's getting boners for 30 bucks.

00:45:53.000 How does it work though?

00:45:53.880 How does that, how do they even justify that?

00:45:56.300 Pharmacy benefit managers, pharmacy benefit managers.

00:45:58.460 Remember we mentioned pharmacy benefit managers.

00:46:00.680 I used to work in a pharmacy and I, and I've seen something like that.

00:46:03.940 I got no idea how it works.

00:46:05.780 They do something like magic behind the computer.

00:46:07.500 This company, the PBMs, they're called PBMs, this pharmacy benefit managers.

00:46:12.400 They negotiate how many drugs, which drugs are going to be in the formulary and the pharmacy

00:46:19.620 is going to pre-buy and have in the pharmacy and how much the insurances are going to pay

00:46:24.140 for it.

00:46:24.580 For the moment that you present your insurance card, there's already a price set for that

00:46:29.040 medication for you as an insurance holder.

00:46:31.900 If I go in willy-nilly cash pay and I'm like, Hey, or have a coupon or something, he's like,

00:46:37.660 Hey, I want to get the medication.

00:46:39.220 It's going to be way less.

00:46:41.500 And the fundamental medication that you need to live every day, antibiotics, blood pressure

00:46:47.460 medication, regular shmegular diabetes, not Ozempic.

00:46:51.180 That's an important one.

00:46:53.460 That's the most important one.

00:46:54.500 Not Ozemp, not Mary-Kate and Ashley Venom.

00:46:57.560 Venom.

00:46:58.400 Unbelievable.

00:46:59.020 How dare you besmirch Ozempic on this show?

00:47:00.920 In some instances, it's good.

00:47:03.140 But the regular stuff is less than $10.

00:47:06.680 Yeah.

00:47:07.500 When I go to the thing, we didn't have insurance, so I'll tell them it's cash.

00:47:12.500 And then I'm always kind of taken aback by how not really expensive it is.

00:47:16.480 Like I might pay like $30, $40 for something or whatever, but that's it.

00:47:20.780 I'll pay that and I'll go, okay, cool.

00:47:22.540 That was relatively painless.

00:47:24.140 You know what I mean?

00:47:24.620 So, but yeah, I mean, I've seen it the other way around too, when I did have insurance and

00:47:28.140 I'm looking at the cost of things, I'm like, what in the hell's going on here?

00:47:30.520 You know, you were talking about that AI aspect taking over.

00:47:34.020 I think that's very real.

00:47:35.360 I think your, your, your timeframe of five years is probably also conservative, right?

00:47:38.840 That's being generous.

00:47:39.840 Yeah.

00:47:40.920 It's not, that's not considering the, uh, just the, like the exponential increase.

00:47:45.600 Yeah.

00:47:45.960 Yeah.

00:47:46.140 Because at any moment you could have this big breakthrough, boom, because that's kind

00:47:49.400 of how it develops.

00:47:50.120 It'll, it'll jump.

00:47:51.040 But after COVID, for the microphone that they want to put in your office, there, there's

00:47:55.000 obviously some sort of cash benefit that they're going to be giving you, right?

00:47:57.520 Yeah.

00:47:57.640 They offering you something cool for that $75 an hour, something like that.

00:48:00.900 Just to have this thing sit there.

00:48:02.400 Yeah.

00:48:02.840 Yeah.

00:48:03.600 Well, after COVID, there's a ton of startups like that right now.

00:48:07.720 Not one, not 10.

00:48:08.940 We have one that's been, uh, we have, how do you think we afforded this?

00:48:13.780 Yeah.

00:48:14.260 Yeah.

00:48:15.100 That was what I signed earlier.

00:48:16.740 Yeah.

00:48:17.520 I told you, read it.

00:48:18.920 Um, after COVID, uh, the popularity of virtual doctor's appointments went through the roof.

00:48:25.440 I obviously was, it was what was needed at the time or what was required at the time.

00:48:29.940 But then since then, that model hasn't really gone away.

00:48:32.400 So anytime I'm feeling under the weather, I always keep in my mind, I could just go and

00:48:35.940 tell somebody on FaceTime my symptoms and they could, you know, offer me some antibiotics

00:48:39.660 or whatever.

00:48:40.620 Um, but if that is how impersonal it's gotten.

00:48:44.780 Yeah.

00:48:45.180 Um, that right there, and we've been seeing these videos, by the way, that have been going

00:48:48.920 viral on, on, on Twitter recently of people, um, it'll be like a Somalian migrant, but

00:48:55.740 that what you see is a beautiful blonde woman, you know what I mean?

00:48:59.460 And it's like, it's tracking, it's tethered to him perfectly.

00:49:03.840 It's mouth is tethered to his mouth.

00:49:05.680 Perfectly facial expressions and everything.

00:49:07.920 It looks like a real person.

00:49:09.340 So we're already there.

00:49:10.760 You take that technology, you adapted AI model.

00:49:14.800 You're calling in your FaceTiming, a fake AI doctor.

00:49:18.220 That's just going to, yeah.

00:49:19.580 I mean, at what point do you chunk enough data where you've got how many people are, are

00:49:23.140 accepting that $75 an hour to put that in there.

00:49:25.640 Do that across thousands of doctor's offices, and you've pretty much got the run of the

00:49:30.140 mill, what people come in, the symptoms they describe, and then what they're prescribed.

00:49:35.520 Now have an AI doctor do that.

00:49:37.140 Let me just say this, Nancy, if you see any interesting comment, because we're deep in

00:49:40.860 conversation, if you see interesting comments, just put a little star on them, and then

00:49:45.000 maybe later on in the show, we can circle back.

00:49:47.840 Yeah, because this is something I can see it's resonating with a lot of people.

00:49:50.420 Everybody has, unfortunately, horror experiences with a doctor.

00:49:53.000 Everybody here is sick.

00:49:54.180 That's why they're watching this.

00:49:55.900 That's exactly it.

00:49:57.040 But I agree.

00:49:59.260 We're, in short order, going to see the proliferation of AI doctors, and they're going to be prescribing

00:50:07.340 crap.

00:50:07.960 There is an active movement of the death of specialty and the death of intricate knowledge.

00:50:15.240 So it's being substituted with algorithms and AI.

00:50:19.320 Generalization.

00:50:19.880 25 years ago, you had to be a doctor, do your residency, your subspecialty, to do whatever

00:50:26.600 you needed to do and to have your license to just prescribe the Zitromax, Z-Pak, or just

00:50:31.840 prescribe, you know, lisinopril for hypertension.

00:50:34.380 Now, they, after all that effort that you do, now a physician assistant can have two years

00:50:41.100 in college, two years in a virtual, two years in a virtual college, and maybe one year of

00:50:47.200 an internship.

00:50:48.100 And he's prescribing the same lisinopril I'm doing.

00:50:50.720 He's like, wait a minute.

00:50:52.020 Did my half a million dollar investment wasn't worth anything?

00:50:55.180 I could have taken this route now?

00:50:56.520 So most kids now, they have the, oh, I want to be a doctor, I want to do, and the first

00:51:02.760 thing that the healthcare conscription system does is like, hey, hey, look, you don't have

00:51:08.900 to spend that much time.

00:51:10.600 It's only four years.

00:51:11.980 Being a doctor is not that beneficial.

00:51:13.160 Doctors are, and this is word for word what a student told me that his counselor told him,

00:51:21.800 like, doctors don't care.

00:51:23.340 Doctors are impersonal.

00:51:24.360 Be a physician assistant or a nurse practitioner.

00:51:26.780 It'll be shorter, and you'll be doing the same thing.

00:51:29.760 That's crazy.

00:51:30.300 It's not the same thing, bro.

00:51:31.440 It's not the same thing.

00:51:32.800 I love those, those, those healthcare, those cogs of the healthcare machine too.

00:51:38.120 You know, they're nurses, respiratory therapists, shout out to them.

00:51:41.380 They're, they're part, they're tentacles of the doctor.

00:51:45.220 The doctor's the main figure, because you're the one that has the social power.

00:51:48.680 You're the one that has the, the capacity to, you know, make the patient feel safe and

00:51:56.460 have, and you have to have the balls.

00:51:57.920 You have to have the cojones to just sit there and say what you got to say.

00:52:01.040 And when somebody has cancer, you have to sit and take it.

00:52:04.060 When somebody dies in the, in the ICU, you have to sit down and say, hey, this is what

00:52:07.860 happened and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and take responsibility for it.

00:52:11.620 Those systems are not going to have that.

00:52:13.420 So it's increasingly becoming colder, more distant, less contact with people.

00:52:18.860 So at this time, and somebody, I read on the side, somebody was mentioning in the chat,

00:52:22.780 how do we find these doctors?

00:52:24.160 It's easy.

00:52:25.100 Oh, really?

00:52:25.500 You go to Google, you go direct primary care doctors or concierge.

00:52:30.440 Concierge is a little bit more expensive.

00:52:32.540 Concierge, you pay a subscription and you get some tests included with that.

00:52:36.220 They might have medication in the, in the office, but it's going to be a lot better than

00:52:40.040 insurance, direct primary care.

00:52:41.880 Sometimes it's just a small fee a month or like me, I do visit by visit.

00:52:46.120 I don't have any compromise with long-term compromise with patients.

00:52:50.120 And I do some other stuff in the clinic, IV, stem cells, other stuff that, that I do in

00:52:54.320 the clinic.

00:52:54.620 I also have psychologists in the clinic.

00:52:56.900 So we have to search that out.

00:53:00.940 Have a relationship with your doctor, find the right one.

00:53:02.680 If you want one with one and it sucked, go find one that really kind of gels with you

00:53:07.820 and you have a relationship with him and he could treat you across all your different

00:53:11.620 challenges.

00:53:12.000 Cause you'll have different challenges along your lifetime, but you have to have a soul

00:53:15.600 place where you feel comfortable, where you feel kind of the, that you can share whatever

00:53:21.920 you, whatever's happening to you.

00:53:23.220 And you're going to get direct care from a doctor.

00:53:25.860 Health systems won't do that ever, ever.

00:53:28.100 They're only get more distant, more expensive and less effective.

00:53:31.640 That's AI is going to be, I mean, if people talk with AI now and you kind of notice how

00:53:38.420 it gives you what you want to hear a lot of the time, this is a, that's like a really

00:53:43.080 dangerous thing.

00:53:43.780 And when you said like, it's a responsibility of the doctor to go up to the family and say,

00:53:47.720 this is what happened.

00:53:48.380 This is why your loved one's dead.

00:53:49.540 Imagine getting that just like it's writing like over text or like, like a, an Alexa

00:53:55.480 voice telling you that like, yeah, your husband's dead.

00:53:58.060 What you mentioned there though, is really important.

00:54:01.080 This idea of like, it tells you what you want to hear.

00:54:04.060 And psychologically speaking, there are those people out there who are in love with being

00:54:07.700 sick.

00:54:08.120 This idea of like a hypochondriac or, or, you know, you've been traumatized.

00:54:12.800 That's a huge weight on the healthcare system as well.

00:54:15.200 It is.

00:54:15.600 People that are just constantly going to the doctor, getting different medications.

00:54:18.840 I like the, the, the vocabulary to articulate it, but like, I know there's a psychological

00:54:23.760 phenomenon.

00:54:24.640 Some people love it.

00:54:27.000 They love to have something wrong with them.

00:54:29.040 They love that the, the sympathy and empathy that comes from having something wrong with

00:54:32.800 them.

00:54:33.500 Um, they believe that every single thing that feels weird has to be because there's a bigger

00:54:38.040 problem at hand.

00:54:39.520 Hypochondriac.

00:54:40.020 It's a hypochondriac, but it's like, there's, there's, there's, there's a real love for being

00:54:44.900 in that state.

00:54:45.700 And what happens when that person goes to this AI thing and goes, this is what I'm

00:54:50.620 feeling.

00:54:50.840 This, I mean, as a human doctor, I think is for them.

00:54:54.540 It's like, it's such a waste of resources when you have like a doctor that's got to

00:54:59.900 see a bunch of people.

00:55:00.620 And it's just like the same old lady.

00:55:02.260 Oh, my thing.

00:55:03.620 Yeah.

00:55:03.800 It's like, yeah, we know, like, it's like, bitch, you're 80.

00:55:05.980 Yeah.

00:55:06.220 Dude.

00:55:06.460 You got a thing.

00:55:07.240 It's fine.

00:55:07.820 We're all falling apart.

00:55:09.300 I don't know.

00:55:09.740 I, I, I, as I entered into those other patients that I see that get older, older patients.

00:55:13.340 I see adults from, you know, from 25 and up, but you know, those patients you deal with

00:55:20.720 to man, you manage them.

00:55:22.080 Yeah.

00:55:22.400 You have a doctor you can go to those patients do not come as often to the clinic, but not

00:55:27.480 having someone to answer their questions.

00:55:29.180 Yeah.

00:55:29.420 They feel, well, I'll give them that, right.

00:55:30.920 You feel like, no, no, no, this is not.

00:55:32.480 Cause you get dismissed a lot.

00:55:34.060 And that's something that is, you know, really hard.

00:55:36.360 Like I know that I've, I've been, when I had that collapsed lung, I had been to the doctor,

00:55:40.720 I don't know how many times.

00:55:41.520 And it was far and few, like, it took a lot of visits for them to be like, you got to go

00:55:45.980 and get a scan.

00:55:46.900 There's something wrong.

00:55:48.140 And, and, and I forgot how they determined it, but initially it was just like, oh, you

00:55:52.020 had like the, maybe the flu or something.

00:55:54.220 Here's some antibiotics.

00:55:55.180 And it just wasn't getting better.

00:55:56.580 And every time I went boxing or something, I would go, you know, I break out into fevers afterwards

00:56:01.060 and I'd be bedridden for the next few days.

00:56:03.420 Then I'd recover, then I'd go back.

00:56:04.760 And it would be like this cycle.

00:56:05.780 And every time I went to the doctor, the first like four visits, they just dismissed me after

00:56:10.100 like the fifth one or something.

00:56:11.160 And they, they'd sent me to go get some sort of scans.

00:56:13.180 They were like, oh no, you've been walking around with a collapsed lung.

00:56:17.260 And you have pneumonia.

00:56:18.880 And, and I was like, that's not what I was told, you know?

00:56:21.720 So there is, it's, it's a, it's a hard thing.

00:56:23.560 It's like, where's the line between telling a doctor there's really something wrong with me

00:56:27.060 and also believing that something's wrong with you when there's not.

00:56:30.540 There's also like a, there's a drastic difference.

00:56:32.080 So I'm sort of like my wife, my wife and your wife, they're always like, oh, this and that

00:56:37.660 and like worry me.

00:56:39.280 I could be like dying.

00:56:40.460 I'm like, listen, bitch, don't worry about it.

00:56:42.280 We're going to figure it.

00:56:43.000 And then I'm okay.

00:56:43.760 The next couple of days, I don't even like telling my wife when I'm sick because then

00:56:46.760 she gets worried.

00:56:47.660 And then it makes it, I'm just like, I feel more sick because she's worried.

00:56:51.240 Nothing's wrong with me.

00:56:52.020 I'm fine.

00:56:52.880 I'm fine.

00:56:53.460 And then, and then after a while you are fine, but like, there will be the time where it's

00:56:57.180 like, all right, that then now I'm not, you know what I mean?

00:56:59.420 We're getting to the age, David.

00:57:01.760 Well, we're getting old.

00:57:02.820 Okay.

00:57:03.540 That's fine.

00:57:04.160 I'll allow it.

00:57:05.060 I want to ask you something.

00:57:06.860 There's a whole field of medical study that has erupted after COVID.

00:57:12.020 And that field of medical study is something that like I didn't hear about at all.

00:57:16.440 And then I became pretty partial to, didn't hear about it before COVID.

00:57:20.480 And afterwards I was like, maybe this is something that we should be looking at.

00:57:22.840 It seems like other countries look at it, this idea of parasites and how parasites can

00:57:28.840 affect the average person.

00:57:30.940 Is this something that you focus on?

00:57:33.240 Do you think that it's, it's, it's a, a, a pursuit that the medical industry should be

00:57:38.560 taking more seriously?

00:57:39.640 Cause it does seem like other countries do care about parasites.

00:57:44.000 Yeah.

00:57:44.320 I I'm very, I'm very pro pro patient.

00:57:47.880 So when a patient has a concern, say you're my patient, you walk in and you want to talk

00:57:51.540 about parasites, I will cater to that.

00:57:54.040 I'll say, Hey, this is what we're going to do.

00:57:55.440 We're going to do a fecal smear.

00:57:56.740 We're going to check for parasites.

00:57:58.320 I'm going to miss the day of a pathologist in a lab and say, Hey, please check this,

00:58:03.220 this poo for eggs and for light parasites.

00:58:06.760 If a patient has a concern, you have to address it.

00:58:09.260 The same thing, the same thing with immunizations.

00:58:12.880 I was on, on, on the tinfoil with Sam.

00:58:16.260 And I think at one point, you know, immunizations came up and I'm like, look, I'm, I'm,

00:58:21.540 for what the patient wants.

00:58:23.600 We should never impose on a patient.

00:58:26.220 Hey, you have to do this.

00:58:28.420 Point blank.

00:58:29.340 You inform you.

00:58:30.900 This is what the state wants you to do.

00:58:33.620 This is what you can do.

00:58:35.360 And this is my opinion as a doctor.

00:58:37.960 And we can do any of these.

00:58:40.440 Some patients come in.

00:58:41.740 I don't deal with babies.

00:58:43.060 Some patients have a confidence in me and they know me for, for a while.

00:58:46.260 And they're asking me their opinions.

00:58:47.120 Like, what do you think?

00:58:47.660 Should I skip this?

00:58:48.440 Should I have a, a slower, um, schedule of vaccines, kind of space them out a little

00:58:54.880 bit?

00:58:55.380 Yeah.

00:58:55.760 Fuck yes.

00:58:56.940 If that's what you want to do, if you have the data to support it and you have a discussion

00:59:00.240 with your doctor, absolutely.

00:59:02.160 Absolutely.

00:59:02.460 We should never be, you know, I do, um, I work with a company that's called Evita for

00:59:07.680 research for pharmaceutical research.

00:59:10.580 If you have a pill for toe pain, you have to research that shit for so many years and

00:59:19.340 spend so many millions of dollars at the end of the day.

00:59:23.920 If two patients die there, the FDA is like, sorry, we're not giving you the permission.

00:59:31.100 We need three more years of research.

00:59:33.060 This is what my wife does right now.

00:59:34.080 She's a clinical research coordinator, like, but she's the lead of it.

00:59:37.500 So yeah, it's, it's crazy.

00:59:39.640 Like the, the amount of stringent study and like disqualifiers that there are for any

00:59:45.000 kind of weird because it feels like that wasn't the case.

00:59:47.520 Well, I guess operation warp speed.

00:59:48.840 You might be able to think.

00:59:49.700 Yeah.

00:59:50.680 That was another thing.

00:59:51.600 Any, any time that the government, look, the, the people for here, uh, Roosevelt and, uh,

00:59:58.680 Franklin, they've empowered the insurance, the, the industrial insurance system, PBMs,

01:00:07.720 uh, Medicaid and Medicare.

01:00:09.620 And people talk about, oh, we want Medicare for all.

01:00:14.820 So you want the government to be daddy and take care of your health because they do such

01:00:18.980 a great job with fucking absolutely everything else that you want them to control health.

01:00:24.700 It's insanity.

01:00:25.680 Do you want to have less, you know, lifetime, a less, uh, how, how long your, your lifespan

01:00:32.320 is healthcare should be, you should have the capacity to be independent.

01:00:37.200 And we already have Medicare for all.

01:00:40.660 We have the VA, we have Medicaid, and we have Medicare.

01:00:45.020 Medicare takes care of 60 patients, 65 and older, uh, some special needs kids and some

01:00:51.940 people that can't work.

01:00:52.980 They could be a Medicare.

01:00:54.460 Medicaid is funded by federal tax dollars and, uh, federal and state tax dollars.

01:01:01.720 And the VA is funded, of course, by the military complex.

01:01:04.820 So we have a big amount of the population that's already on state sponsored healthcare.

01:01:11.260 How percentage wise, how big do you think if we put the VA, uh, Medicare and Medicaid together,

01:01:18.980 how many of us is that?

01:01:20.580 I would say it's probably like 60, 70%, uh, 30.

01:01:24.360 You're closer.

01:01:25.380 Really?

01:01:25.840 It's 47% of everybody.

01:01:28.700 So almost half of all of us are in state sponsored insurance.

01:01:33.620 Is their health good?

01:01:35.340 The answer's not, the answer's no, the answer's no.

01:01:37.600 Right.

01:01:38.000 It's not good.

01:01:38.980 It's not good.

01:01:39.540 But the other half is paying middle class, right?

01:01:44.120 Which is the rest of the people.

01:01:46.340 Middle class is getting crunched and our deductibles are higher because it helps fund the other.

01:01:52.020 So we're making our life harder to bring mediocre care because it's not the government.

01:01:58.520 It's not the government is not administering that.

01:02:00.720 They say healthcare insurance, one, B and C, take these funds, you know, help our, our thing.

01:02:08.380 And insurance is like, I'm going to help them.

01:02:11.620 Don't worry.

01:02:12.560 Yeah.

01:02:13.200 I'm going to give them Tylenol.

01:02:14.460 Yeah.

01:02:14.740 We'll be, we'll be, we'll be right back.

01:02:16.500 We have a helicopter to buy.

01:02:18.480 So it's, we're not doing anything.

01:02:20.720 The thing is we have to take responsibility of our own health.

01:02:23.380 We have to find the means and we have to find a doctor that would help us achieve that or

01:02:28.160 a small group that will help us achieve that.

01:02:30.420 The government is not your friend in any facet.

01:02:34.680 So take care of your health.

01:02:36.060 As a physician, I care about my community where I live, the patients I, I tend to, and

01:02:41.580 I focus on that, that I don't, I, sometimes I post, I get pissed off.

01:02:45.420 Go rage.

01:02:46.100 And then I delete it.

01:02:49.660 Sometimes I post it, uh, and I keep it online for a day or two.

01:02:53.340 Um, and, uh, but it's just, it's not going to make a difference.

01:02:56.220 So the difference is getting the message across.

01:02:58.820 How many people have asked in the chat, um, you know, where do I find these type of doctors?

01:03:03.920 Yeah.

01:03:04.480 You can't find that.

01:03:05.780 They're asking how much the blacks are paying.

01:03:07.500 Don't just ignore this guy.

01:03:08.420 This is unbelievable.

01:03:09.060 Terrible people.

01:03:10.020 I wanted to ask you a question.

01:03:11.840 Well, I don't take offenses.

01:03:12.860 I'm half black and my nose is pretty wide.

01:03:15.140 Yeah.

01:03:15.540 I have some other attributes as well for the chat.

01:03:18.960 I have bad credit score.

01:03:20.200 Uh, so, so, um, while you think of that, there's something that I wanted to ask.

01:03:24.860 Right now we, we find ourselves in the middle of like medical information.

01:03:27.620 That's once again being, uh, politicized.

01:03:30.960 That's yes.

01:03:31.540 This is where I was going to see.

01:03:33.000 We're working like a hive mind.

01:03:34.320 Same thing, right?

01:03:34.660 We share the same demons.

01:03:35.920 We share the same demons.

01:03:36.740 We share the same demons.

01:03:36.760 Like a bro mind.

01:03:38.560 Um, so, so, um, it's being politicized and it's this idea that acetaminophen is, has a direct

01:03:45.180 correlation to, I don't, I don't know if it's acetaminophen.

01:03:47.520 I think it might just be Tylenol specific.

01:03:49.460 No, it was, it's acetaminophen.

01:03:50.780 So there's a pub med studies.

01:03:52.460 I actually have a couple of them on my phone here.

01:03:53.840 I can just read some of these titles just to give you an idea, but this is not necessarily

01:03:58.080 something that is new.

01:03:59.980 It's just that this administration is making the claims.

01:04:03.640 And so, uh, just by virtue of that has become politically polarizing.

01:04:07.400 So we have here, uh, let me see.

01:04:10.780 Yeah.

01:04:11.260 Do you put any stock in, in that?

01:04:13.140 Well, here, let's, let's read a few of these before, before we get into that.

01:04:16.040 Uh, pub med, uh, the use of acetaminophen during pregnancy and the risk of autism spectrum

01:04:22.280 disorder in the offspring.

01:04:23.560 This is 2016.

01:04:24.760 This is a study from pub med.

01:04:26.080 There's another one from a.gov, uh, ncbi.nim.nih.gov.

01:04:32.680 The role of oxidative stress, inflammation, and acetaminophen exposure from birth to early

01:04:38.420 childhood in the induction of autism.

01:04:41.440 Uh, another one.

01:04:42.900 So they're doing a, uh, a constant correlation.

01:04:45.320 Another one, 2017.

01:04:46.680 Tylenol also like there's a tweet that said, Hey, if you're pregnant, maybe don't take this.

01:04:51.220 That was 2017.

01:04:52.340 They said that.

01:04:53.040 Yeah.

01:04:53.180 And here's another one.

01:04:54.160 Prenatal exposure to acetaminophen and risk of ADHD.

01:04:57.300 So they're, they're, they're drawing this correlation or at least they're finding it reasonable

01:05:02.160 to conduct studies to try to see if there's a correlation there.

01:05:05.340 And this is going as far back as I've got 2016, 2017.

01:05:09.140 But here's, here's the alarming part.

01:05:10.520 Like it's coming from an administration, a government administration.

01:05:15.220 Yeah.

01:05:15.640 Immediately invalidates.

01:05:17.340 Immediately.

01:05:18.500 Immediately.

01:05:19.240 Cause it's, Hey, look at this over here.

01:05:23.540 Yeah.

01:05:23.860 Look at this.

01:05:24.420 Look at this.

01:05:24.760 I don't know.

01:05:25.420 Yeah.

01:05:25.920 We don't take care.

01:05:26.920 We, we have our, our, our pregnant women in the workplace.

01:05:31.200 Oh yeah.

01:05:31.960 We don't do it.

01:05:32.860 Literally up until the delivery date.

01:05:34.560 We don't, we don't do anything different with their diet.

01:05:37.840 We don't have a system, a social system in place that the community, you're pregnant,

01:05:43.440 Nancy, just stay the fuck in your house.

01:05:45.040 Yeah.

01:05:45.420 And you know, you're going to do this for the next nine months.

01:05:48.400 You're bringing another life in here.

01:05:50.060 Do that.

01:05:51.340 Instead, you have that distractor of like, Hey, that, and my worst RFK.

01:05:57.260 That was pretty good.

01:05:58.020 Actually.

01:05:58.180 I knew exactly who that was.

01:05:59.140 I thought that was good.

01:05:59.720 There's no control factors.

01:06:00.840 What you're saying.

01:06:01.640 Yeah.

01:06:02.020 There's no, it's multifactorial.

01:06:03.240 The word is multifactorial.

01:06:04.720 Autism is multifactorial.

01:06:05.880 You can say vaccines.

01:06:06.860 You can say, but we're putting so much bad shit in our kids.

01:06:09.140 Oh my God.

01:06:09.720 Including everything, everything from cell phone and everything.

01:06:12.640 And I had my, my daughter was diagnosed with moderate to severe autism.

01:06:16.540 She was three and it just, it's changed, changed my, it changed my world though.

01:06:20.740 I'm like, I need to understand this shit to this day.

01:06:23.420 I don't fucking understand the reason for autism.

01:06:26.220 What did I do with my daughter?

01:06:27.460 I spent thousands and thousands of dollars learning because you can't connect with your

01:06:31.640 body.

01:06:32.160 Yeah.

01:06:32.620 You can't connect with your body.

01:06:33.460 She, she has this.

01:06:34.520 She had a massive disconnection with her body.

01:06:36.380 It's a disassociative state.

01:06:37.640 It's, it's, and today, day for day, I took her to, uh, equine therapy.

01:06:44.280 I took her to, uh, all types of therapy.

01:06:47.220 You know, the one that worked ballet.

01:06:49.260 She connected with her body through dance, which sounds kind of cheesy, but she's been

01:06:54.220 dancing since she was disciplined.

01:06:56.100 She's 15 now.

01:06:56.920 So she, she's been 12 years dancing ballet.

01:06:59.660 It allowed her to come out of her show.

01:07:01.460 She's a normal person, a great grade, super responsible, super mature, a fantastic, uh,

01:07:07.560 a fantastic, uh, young lady.

01:07:09.560 But I spent the time.

01:07:11.240 I'm like, I'm not going to work as much where let's do all this stuff and let, let's put

01:07:15.100 all our resources.

01:07:16.120 Yeah.

01:07:16.340 Imagine the person that can't have that money.

01:07:19.620 Yeah.

01:07:19.880 Then we have a kid that's going to be dysfunctional and we don't understand the disease process.

01:07:23.720 We don't have a, a task force on, on how to do that, but we have task force putting information

01:07:29.460 out on Tylenol.

01:07:30.800 I say, Hey, here's your distractor.

01:07:32.440 Well, this is what's interesting to me is like, all right, so we have John Hopkins university.

01:07:35.780 This is 2019 taking Tylenol during pregnancy associated with elevated risk of autism, ADHD.

01:07:40.680 So the point is, this has been going on for a while.

01:07:42.980 Is it necessarily a negative thing when an administration and I, I, you know, there's

01:07:48.600 a lot of things I'm a conspiracy theorist by nature.

01:07:50.480 So don't get me wrong.

01:07:51.840 I'm not championing this administration, highly skeptical of everything that they do.

01:07:55.160 Um, but is it, is it really that damnable when eventually a louder mouthpiece comes

01:08:03.580 along and says what's already been speculated on, on a very high level in these reputable

01:08:09.440 medical journals for the better part of what would be about a decade now is 2025.

01:08:14.920 So the earliest one that I saw is 2026.

01:08:17.160 Who knows how long those studies have been going on the better part of a decade, this

01:08:20.860 is being said, and now this administration comes along, they say it even louder and I'm

01:08:24.740 going, what I don't understand is when you see, and I don't know if you've seen this

01:08:28.720 women in response to this is whether it's left-leaning democratic rate, you were just

01:08:33.280 talking the opposite side of the political spectrum are now taking Tylenol in videos while

01:08:38.960 pregnant to spite, to stick their nose up at this administration.

01:08:44.740 Whereas there was never that sentiment to stick their nose up at a pub med study or a John Hopkins

01:08:51.600 university study or anything of that nature.

01:08:53.660 Now they see fit to do it.

01:08:56.060 And I'm just wondering, um, to me, that seems ridiculous.

01:08:59.960 There's a reason behind it.

01:09:01.200 Well, obviously there's a reason behind it.

01:09:02.520 It's an unnecessary risk to your child.

01:09:05.760 Um, it seems like at the very least it merits a, Hey, let's pump the brakes and let's look

01:09:10.340 at this kind of a situation.

01:09:11.960 Yeah.

01:09:12.260 The, what I, what I see as a, you know, as a researcher, as a physician, I see, okay,

01:09:16.420 Tylenol has been around for more than 50 years.

01:09:18.440 It's been around forever and the rate of autism has only increased at a certain point, of course,

01:09:23.920 because we got better at diagnosing it.

01:09:26.160 Um, but it's been around forever.

01:09:28.020 So it instantly puts a grain of, of doubt in my mind.

01:09:31.940 It's like, ah, we would have seen that, that hike a lot earlier.

01:09:35.820 Cause by the ACOG, the American college of obstetrics and gynecology, Tylenol has always

01:09:41.020 been the drug, uh, for pain management and pregnancy along, I mean, Advil, not that much,

01:09:46.540 but Tylenol is the one that's safe.

01:09:48.400 Uh, and, uh, we would have seen a hike in the autism cases.

01:09:52.300 Maybe, you know, we didn't have the, the means to diagnose it.

01:09:56.200 We just have that.

01:09:56.780 We just said, you know, in the seventies and sixties, like that kid's fucking weird, bro.

01:10:01.040 Yeah.

01:10:01.360 You know, just keep them inside.

01:10:03.280 Just give them the catcher in the rye.

01:10:04.460 I see some of my uncles, like when I look at them now, I was like, oh, you got, you

01:10:07.980 have autism.

01:10:09.120 Yeah.

01:10:09.240 You like trains way too much.

01:10:10.760 I didn't, but you were never diagnosed with it because it just wasn't a thing.

01:10:14.040 Well, now it's gotten to the point where like everybody is on the spectrum one way or another,

01:10:17.720 but what you were saying before about this, um, cognitive function and, and let's say like

01:10:22.720 entertainment in particular, what role that plays in it, if there is, and this is something

01:10:26.080 that, that I know is really, you know, important to you is this idea that the, uh, the, the,

01:10:31.920 the frame, the, the, the, the scene change on a show, let's say, for example, a children's

01:10:37.380 show has to change at maximum every like eight seconds.

01:10:41.440 So in order to keep the attention of a child, you need to continually change the scene and

01:10:46.240 flash images and get them.

01:10:47.700 Otherwise their attention.

01:10:48.620 I have, I have our show set to change about every five, five to eight seconds.

01:10:52.360 Literally the only way that we can keep their attention is this is actually the success

01:10:56.480 of our show is due to this little robot here, uh, that changes the, there you go.

01:10:59.780 Uh, so, so, um, uh, if, if you in, in those really early years are being trained to focus

01:11:08.540 on an image that changes every eight seconds and, and, and it continues on into adulthood

01:11:12.620 where you have tick tock and the idea is like 30 seconds to a minute, and then it goes on

01:11:16.900 to the next reel or the next image or whatever, what is that doing to our ability?

01:11:20.860 So, so let's put autism aside and just look at, uh, attention deficit disorder or attention

01:11:25.440 deficit hyperactivity disorder.

01:11:27.020 Um, we are, uh, in, in, in almost all stimuli being catered to have the attention span of

01:11:36.040 a child, uh, even as an adult.

01:11:39.300 So at what point do you stop and you go, is it a chicken or the egg?

01:11:44.320 Did our psychology change to the degree that they're like, okay, we need to change this really

01:11:49.720 fast for people to pay attention to it.

01:11:51.400 Or is our psychology changing as a response to all of our stimuli being very, very short

01:11:57.260 form?

01:11:58.140 Yeah.

01:11:58.540 I, the effects of, of scrolling, scrolling entertainment in 10 years, we're going to have

01:12:04.600 data.

01:12:05.100 That's going to be so damning.

01:12:07.100 Um, but in 10 years we might have AGI, so it might not even matter.

01:12:11.520 So, but the results are going to be awful.

01:12:14.180 I mean, it's for parents, all, all the parents are come to my office and sit down.

01:12:18.220 Hey, my kids, this, this, and that meanwhile, the kids on a tablet, a hundred percent, a

01:12:22.760 hundred percent, just take the tablet away.

01:12:24.560 Yeah.

01:12:24.860 Spend money.

01:12:25.420 Give them a rock.

01:12:26.180 Spend money.

01:12:26.640 I was like, what, what is your kid doing after school?

01:12:29.320 Oh, there's a home.

01:12:30.560 And within, no, no, no.

01:12:32.080 Spend money.

01:12:33.780 Grab, grab a kid, put them in sport, uh, art class, uh, classical music, um, piano, give

01:12:40.780 them a skill, give them your, you have a brain that's developing.

01:12:43.940 You could either be responsible, spend that money and say, Hey, I'm going to, it's going

01:12:48.720 to suck.

01:12:49.160 I'm still going to have to take you, pick you up from school.

01:12:51.180 And then afternoon when I'm off a job, take you to piano class and spend this much money.

01:12:55.520 It's going to be worth it.

01:12:56.300 Cause it's not, you're going to put a shit individual in the world.

01:12:59.080 So you have to spend that money.

01:13:00.620 It's your responsibility.

01:13:01.260 Cause you're going to deal with the consequences when you're old, when they do shit stuff,

01:13:05.080 do the shitty stuff.

01:13:06.300 By the way, I think there's a direct correlation between not only that ADHD aspect when it comes to

01:13:10.520 the stimuli, but also the obesity epidemic, because I noticed in my own son, if I allow

01:13:16.280 him to, uh, kind of, you know, like, let's say we have like a lazy day, you know, we're

01:13:20.380 not doing anything that day.

01:13:21.500 He's bouncing back and forth between, uh, playing a game or watching something.

01:13:26.060 I'll notice that he will continually get up and go to the fridge and get something and

01:13:31.660 then go back and then go to the fridge and get something.

01:13:33.500 And what's happening here is the stimuli is so low in satisfaction that, that these

01:13:39.860 things are now competing, whether it's like watching something on TV, playing the game

01:13:44.000 or eating something.

01:13:44.800 These are all low level stimuli and one is barely better than the other one at any given

01:13:49.440 time.

01:13:49.940 And so he's not satisfied and he's bouncing back and forth until I got to be like, yo,

01:13:53.820 get that bike.

01:13:54.740 Cause we got him a bike.

01:13:55.480 And I'm like, go outside, go to your friend.

01:13:57.300 You got a friend that lives around the corner.

01:13:58.400 Go to your friend, go get them, go outside and play.

01:14:00.900 Put them out the other day.

01:14:01.840 The truth is that like, you don't even have to spend that much money.

01:14:04.480 Like if you right outside my house, there is just a hole, just a hole.

01:14:08.020 Kids love digging.

01:14:08.600 They just dig in a hole.

01:14:09.720 They were there for six hours yesterday, digging a hole.

01:14:12.640 Yeah.

01:14:13.060 It's not going to, I'd like to dig a hole.

01:14:14.880 It's not going to fill the, the neat, like that, that part of them, that's going to be

01:14:18.340 like, you know, the problem solving, the creativity part.

01:14:20.440 But, uh, we figured out like for my son, he was also sort of like on the spectrum as

01:14:25.360 well.

01:14:25.620 We, we did some heavy metal detox with them.

01:14:27.560 We did supplemental stuff.

01:14:28.680 If we, and man, he, he, uh, he's a normal kid now, but what he does gravitate towards

01:14:34.540 is, uh, puzzles, things like that.

01:14:37.000 Like he's, he's very analytical in that way.

01:14:39.020 So we put them in jujitsu because it's a physical puzzle and he's been crushing it.

01:14:43.380 But right before it, right at the kitchen, you were telling me about the prevalence of

01:14:47.680 MRSA in jujitsu.

01:14:49.680 And now I'm having like some second thoughts.

01:14:52.020 No, it's being cognizant of, of that challenge and saying, okay, I'm going to, you got to

01:14:56.700 take a shower, but I know it's cool to hang in your gi and have everybody see you or in

01:15:00.820 your, your board shorts and be like, I'm a bad-ass.

01:15:03.100 Yeah.

01:15:03.300 But you gotta, you know, change right away.

01:15:05.980 There's, you know, us, the, the pads, the, the soap pads that you could, you got to teach

01:15:12.060 him how to deal with what the, that's a skill that you have to teach your kid.

01:15:15.560 Like, Hey, when you're sick and this is something I tell my daughter, say, when you're, when

01:15:19.220 you have a respiratory infection, when you have a cough and a cold, you, you gotta, you

01:15:23.260 gotta take care of it.

01:15:24.000 Yeah.

01:15:24.540 You, when this, when you're talking about sex with your kids and you're giving them the

01:15:28.840 talk, it's like, Hey buddy, there's responsibilities.

01:15:31.760 You can get this, this, that, uh, this is what happens to people that do this, this, and

01:15:36.540 that.

01:15:36.880 So you have to have a direct relationship with your kids and say that you can't defer everything

01:15:40.760 to AI and to phones.

01:15:42.160 Yeah.

01:15:42.280 You gotta, you gotta be a present parent and, uh, and just the majority of people, it's

01:15:47.300 so hard for us on day-to-day grind, uh, then we gravitate towards.

01:15:52.360 I, I don't blame parents.

01:15:53.840 Like it's, it's easy to have your kid on an iPad seeing, uh, shit, uh, videos in there.

01:16:00.000 And then you take a little breather, you're able to kind of decompress, but the, that piece

01:16:07.020 that you have when you're decompressing, not paying attention to your kids.

01:16:09.980 Yeah.

01:16:10.340 It's going to go away when they do something fucked or where they get sick or where, when

01:16:15.280 they're not successful in their, in their life.

01:16:18.040 And I just sound, I sound like an old dude and I am an old guy, but that's, that's what

01:16:22.520 you need to be more present in with your health, your health.

01:16:25.120 When your kid's held, you got to take responsibility for it.

01:16:28.300 Don't give that responsibility to the state because the state will do you wrong 150%.

01:16:32.980 Yeah, but it's the state that's grinding you down, right?

01:16:36.220 It's demanding that you get two incomes going on because the economy is so bad.

01:16:40.060 So both the wife and the husband have to go out or you're a single parent and, you know,

01:16:43.540 household or whatever the case is.

01:16:44.980 You're going to pay, you're going to pay.

01:16:46.620 Yeah.

01:16:47.140 Either way.

01:16:47.800 You're hard, right?

01:16:48.480 So pick your hard.

01:16:49.760 Which, which, when do you want to pay?

01:16:51.340 I know which one is going to make you feel less like shit on your deathbed.

01:16:55.640 You know what I'm saying?

01:16:56.380 Like that one is definitely, uh, the, the, the entertainment is really hard too, because

01:17:02.920 the short form content makes it so that like, if, if my kid wants to watch a show on, let's

01:17:10.700 say like Hulu or something, and I know the show, you know what I mean?

01:17:13.540 Like, uh, I like to make him watch and he's not, well, he can be a fan of it, but there's

01:17:18.420 a lot of times where he's not old shows that I used to watch because I already know them.

01:17:22.120 I've already vetted them.

01:17:22.900 I already know what they're about.

01:17:23.780 So like, you know, we'll go back and watch this stuff from the early two thousands or

01:17:27.260 the 1990s or whatever.

01:17:28.840 So he's been watching like the old school Spider-Man, uh, uh, stuff that I already know,

01:17:35.920 right?

01:17:36.760 Because the problem is with the short form content, even if it's a new show and I watched

01:17:41.140 some of it with him and I go, okay, this seems reasonable, you know, from episode to

01:17:44.620 episode that changes, they could, they could, uh, bring in something, inject some sort of

01:17:49.380 a concept.

01:17:49.900 Like I saw one, for example, the other day, I'm scrolling through Twitter and I know

01:17:53.760 I've seen this show on Netflix, but he's not watched it.

01:17:57.540 Uh, but there's like a whole trans character.

01:17:59.560 It's a, it's, and it's marketed for seven and up seven and up.

01:18:03.040 Right.

01:18:03.600 And, and it's a trans character talking about how they're just living their truth and doing

01:18:07.880 all this and things.

01:18:08.340 So now that isn't like the theme of the show, but you can get that one episode.

01:18:13.800 So even that's hard.

01:18:15.120 Try doing it when it's short form content, you're going to sit over their shoulder and

01:18:18.400 watch a 60 second clip, a 60 second clip, a 60 second clip.

01:18:22.220 You step away for a half an hour.

01:18:24.100 Then they've been subjected to 30 different pieces of media that you've not vetted.

01:18:28.760 You have no idea what they just saw in the cycle.

01:18:31.320 Right.

01:18:31.640 So whether it's like YouTube reels or some crap like that, YouTube shorts, they are subjected

01:18:36.120 to, it's like, it literally is MK ultra, right?

01:18:38.780 Where you're like in the chair and you're just getting, ah, and they're flashing all these

01:18:41.700 images in front of you and 16 of them could have been trans shit or 16 of them could have

01:18:46.760 just been horrible messaging in general for a young developing mind.

01:18:50.940 It is.

01:18:51.940 And then couple that with just all the stresses of, of this thing, that thing work, uh, the

01:18:57.640 everyday comings and goings of life.

01:18:59.480 And then layer on top of that.

01:19:01.700 And I'm, you know, it's not a black pill or anything, but I'm just saying layer, layer

01:19:04.420 on top of that.

01:19:05.660 Now understand health and nutrition.

01:19:07.520 Yeah.

01:19:07.920 Now understand how to raise your child in a healthy way.

01:19:12.700 Now understand how to navigate the healthcare system.

01:19:15.340 Like I do sympathize with people.

01:19:19.480 It's kind of crazy to imagine that the average person who's working at nine to five could,

01:19:27.160 you might be able to master like one of these things or two of these things, but we're being

01:19:31.300 crushed.

01:19:31.740 It's like Tripoli says, right?

01:19:32.780 Uh, pressure from above pressure from below.

01:19:34.680 It's like every which way.

01:19:36.240 You've got to step out.

01:19:38.560 You've got to get some, I don't know, property, move, move, move away, you know, get off and,

01:19:43.320 and get away from the system.

01:19:45.140 If you can homeschool your kids, because even if you don't look at it, like they're all nefarious

01:19:50.520 systems that are pitted out to ruin your family.

01:19:52.740 It's like just the, um, the, what would you call it?

01:19:57.000 The, the negligence of all these systems that's going to ruin you.

01:20:02.740 Yeah.

01:20:02.840 Like you have to be involved.

01:20:04.860 If you buy your food from only restaurants and fast foods, you'll have shitty health.

01:20:12.400 Get the ingredients you cook.

01:20:14.600 Some of them might be Monsanto, but you're going to be a lot better than doing that.

01:20:19.440 What makes you think that your kids are different?

01:20:21.000 You got to be hands-on.

01:20:24.020 What makes you think that your health is different?

01:20:26.380 That the government is going to have your back and they're going to treat your health well?

01:20:28.900 No, no, no.

01:20:29.220 It's your responsibility.

01:20:30.080 We got to be responsible for shit.

01:20:31.920 And I see these young, these young people with, with these thought processes and, and

01:20:36.960 partisan mind.

01:20:38.940 It's like, get the, get that the fuck out of your head.

01:20:41.220 Yeah.

01:20:41.480 No political party is going to have your best interests.

01:20:44.040 There's no world where AOC puts anything out productive for society.

01:20:50.340 If she's not a politician, it's she, what's the skill?

01:20:55.880 Nothing.

01:20:56.560 Right.

01:20:56.940 So she, she's a bartender smartly went very, very methodically went into politics.

01:21:02.800 I'm going to be, I'm going to be rich here and I'm going to use these hot button topics.

01:21:07.980 You and I know she doesn't believe in all that shit.

01:21:11.020 She just wants a nice life.

01:21:12.520 Yeah.

01:21:12.800 Cushy life, comfortable, individualistic.

01:21:16.080 At the expensive.

01:21:17.960 Don't follow those people.

01:21:19.360 They're looking out for their family and their life and their legacy.

01:21:23.460 We are, we got to do the same thing.

01:21:25.240 We got to step out of that partisan mind and stop that stupid bullshit.

01:21:28.980 And sometimes we get drawn in it, but you got to, the only, the only place where you can

01:21:32.300 affect real change in your family, in your, in your community and the people.

01:21:37.020 You know, you got to call your friends retarded sometimes so they don't do stupid shit.

01:21:41.680 You got to call them out and you got to take care of the business that you got to take

01:21:46.140 care of in your small circle.

01:21:47.500 If enough of us do that, we start bubbling out and merging bubbles and just creating spots

01:21:54.560 where, where things are more bearable.

01:21:57.520 It's going to suck.

01:21:58.620 No.

01:21:58.940 But things become more bearable when you, when you have that, you have good food, you have

01:22:02.180 a good spot to live at.

01:22:03.260 Your kids are taken care of.

01:22:05.020 So you, little by little, you improve.

01:22:07.280 If you think big, no, I want to change the, you're not going to fucking change the world.

01:22:12.300 Posting a flag, you know, of whatever flag you want to post.

01:22:17.100 It's not going to change anything.

01:22:18.340 People don't get triggered.

01:22:19.120 No, no, no.

01:22:20.140 Don't worry about these guys.

01:22:21.340 Any flags, any flags you post is not going to change anything.

01:22:23.980 Any slogan that you're going to post is not going to change anything.

01:22:26.540 The only thing is the things that you do when you turn off that fucking phone and the

01:22:30.660 fucking Twitter and all that stuff and do the work with your close community.

01:22:34.520 If you want to have a weird ass community where everybody has weird colored hair and

01:22:38.980 you do, do that, but like on your own shit, you know, and, and you're good.

01:22:44.240 Yeah.

01:22:44.380 Let me ask you something.

01:22:45.320 You had mentioned at the, like close to the top of the show about, uh, IV infusions.

01:22:50.560 You said every October you should, you said we should be doing this monthly.

01:22:54.060 Yeah.

01:22:54.500 Oh, that's interesting.

01:22:55.100 When you put on IV, the food, let's talk about food, right?

01:22:58.740 The, the food.

01:22:59.860 And by the way, fuck RFK for saying that doctors have to learn more about nutrition.

01:23:05.080 Fuck you and your fucking weird voice.

01:23:07.900 We learned about enough.

01:23:09.940 What are you talking about?

01:23:11.180 The government approves AI, uh, in, in medicine and, and PAs and NPs.

01:23:16.800 Fuck you.

01:23:17.160 I just wanted to get that out of my chest.

01:23:18.320 What did he say about, about nutrition?

01:23:20.420 That he, he was putting a law in place, of course, you know, that's how politicians improve

01:23:25.620 us so that med students would have to learn more about nutrition and just how about people

01:23:32.840 affording good food, not us learning.

01:23:36.240 Cause we learned so much shit.

01:23:37.840 Of course we learned some stuff about nutrition.

01:23:39.500 We're not the best, you know, and even Joe Rogan has shat on doctors for no, no, not

01:23:44.280 knowing about nutrition.

01:23:44.980 You know, like, Hey, we know about diabetic ketoacidosis and how to treat it in the ICU.

01:23:50.840 Fuck you.

01:23:51.400 You can talk about cucumbers.

01:23:52.520 I don't give a fuck.

01:23:54.120 Like you, you have to be specialized in what you do.

01:23:57.180 I get it.

01:23:57.820 Nutrition is important, but you have to be able to, to eat clean.

01:24:03.220 What was your question?

01:24:03.780 I just went.

01:24:04.720 No, sure.

01:24:04.840 No, that makes sense.

01:24:05.540 Listen, go to a nutritionist is what you're saying is like, go to a doctor for doctor shit.

01:24:09.620 Yeah, I get it.

01:24:10.960 No, I was, I was just asking about, uh, the frequency of IV infusions that we should be,

01:24:18.020 that we should be doing because, uh, my mom, when my wife was sick, we were doing IV infusions,

01:24:24.600 uh, every man multiple times a week to get her back on her feet, but I haven't done one since.

01:24:31.520 And it seems like, uh, we, we do supplementation.

01:24:34.820 Like we have a bunch of, uh, vitamins and stuff, but I don't know if that's a better route.

01:24:38.440 Yeah, the, the good thing about IV infusions is that you're getting directly in your vascular

01:24:44.580 compartment, right?

01:24:45.600 If I, if I give you a B12, I say, Hey, uh, top behaviors, B12, it has to go to your digestive

01:24:51.860 tract, be absorbed, go to liver, be absorbed by the parietal cells to make the intrinsic

01:24:56.240 factor to go in the, and some of that goes into your bloodstream.

01:24:59.780 If I put an IV, uh, catheter in you and I give you that methylated B12, uh, with an IV bag,

01:25:06.700 it goes directly to your bloodstream and you get the benefits immediately.

01:25:10.400 We'd have with, without involving liver, without involving your gastrointestinal tract.

01:25:13.960 So we're giving you resources that are immediate.

01:25:17.000 So IV infusions with winter and change of, of, uh, of the seasons comes different challenges.

01:25:23.640 There's more infections because there's less daytime and people are crowded places more.

01:25:28.120 The kids are in school and they're exchanging bacteria and viruses.

01:25:31.540 So people get sick more often.

01:25:34.160 Does it have anything to do with the temperature or is it temperature, less exposure to the

01:25:37.460 sun, daylight, daylight savings time, all that stuff puts stressors on our life.

01:25:41.560 So we are, um, super, uh, prone and primed to get infections and to get sick.

01:25:47.120 That's why we have that flu that's seasonal and, and you know, the, the coronavirus.

01:25:52.140 And so you're not a terrain guy.

01:25:53.760 I know Sam, Sam's like very, he's very much on board with that.

01:25:57.680 Whereas like, uh, I was the terrain, are you familiar with that theory?

01:26:02.120 Well, no, it's just, give me the nutshell of it.

01:26:04.720 I think terrain theory is that, uh, these, uh, that I think they exist within us, but,

01:26:10.980 uh, they only become prevalent when our body like allows it to.

01:26:15.420 This is what this I, I, I'm, I'm butchering it.

01:26:18.040 I'm butchering it.

01:26:18.760 We, we do have a population of bacteria.

01:26:21.420 Okay.

01:26:21.700 Like we have, um, a beta, uh, we have streptococcus in our throat.

01:26:27.920 That potentially could give us strep throat.

01:26:30.540 Yeah.

01:26:30.760 But strep lives in our throat already.

01:26:32.640 It's when we have, uh, our immune system goes down.

01:26:36.780 Let's say you go to a night of drinking, um, and you just drunk, wasted, dehydrated.

01:26:43.220 And then you sleep on your back and you're snoring and your throat gets dry.

01:26:47.400 It cracks up.

01:26:48.300 That strep goes in there.

01:26:49.600 You got a strep throat and you think you made out with Lucy and she, oh man, that chick

01:26:54.260 gave me strep.

01:26:54.920 No, you had it, but you put your body in so much stress that it got sick.

01:27:00.100 So the same thing with all these viruses is just, you're primed and prone to, to be

01:27:04.720 ill and have these, these ailments and, and there's multiple factors in it.

01:27:09.580 It might be season.

01:27:10.520 It might be how you're treating your body at that time.

01:27:12.600 And you get sick.

01:27:13.560 It seems that that's what terrain therapy and terrain theory might, might be, I don't,

01:27:19.200 I'm not familiar with it, but the same thing with the, the genitals have candida.

01:27:25.560 Um, and, um, the female in the vaginal canal has candida, which is a fungus.

01:27:31.140 It's a normal fungus to be there when there's a pH imbalance.

01:27:35.380 Let's say you have intercourse and no, and nobody took a shower.

01:27:39.040 Everybody just soaked in and walked away to, to work next morning.

01:27:42.960 Hell yeah.

01:27:43.400 Nice.

01:27:46.400 Bring, bring back memories.

01:27:49.200 So you have that.

01:27:50.640 And then you get a little red rash on your glands in the tip of the penis.

01:27:54.800 And you're like, oh my God, this is, you know, Vivian gave me an STD.

01:27:58.440 What's going on?

01:27:59.400 And no, no, no, it's just a fungal infection that was opportunistic because you were unkind

01:28:04.960 to your body and you didn't do the right hygiene and then you got sick.

01:28:08.400 So, and then you have a good doctor to confide in and you get treatment.

01:28:13.800 So, but for the IVs is giving your body resources.

01:28:17.940 You can't have all the B12.

01:28:19.360 How much steak can you eat in a week?

01:28:21.620 If you're a regular person, how much vegetables are you going to cram in to have all the water

01:28:26.180 soluble vitamins?

01:28:27.300 How much cucumber?

01:28:28.220 People are just going to go easy.

01:28:29.680 I'm just going to have a burger and sweet potato fries.

01:28:31.700 I'm healthy.

01:28:32.260 I'm ordering the sweet potato fries.

01:28:33.860 I'm good.

01:28:35.160 They're good though.

01:28:36.580 So having an IV at least once a month gives your body all the water soluble vitamins,

01:28:43.360 a little bit of glutathione, an antioxidant, vitamin C, like high dose vitamin C.

01:28:50.280 I'm a firm believer.

01:28:51.320 And there's a lot of studies on the inhibition of virus replication with vitamin C.

01:28:55.780 So if you do that, I guarantee you that you're going to have good outcomes, that you're going

01:29:03.280 to get sick less, your body's going to feel fantastic after a good IV, and you're going

01:29:09.280 to perhaps waste less money.

01:29:12.400 Because if you get sick, like you got sick on still with a pulmonary abscess, how does

01:29:19.860 your body work when you're giving it the right things?

01:29:21.520 We have all the code.

01:29:22.400 We have everything, all the information for your body to work perfectly in your body.

01:29:26.260 You just have to give it the right resources.

01:29:27.560 Do you find that, wait, wait, sorry, go ahead.

01:29:32.360 As far as like pricing, pricing goes, can the normal person afford a monthly IV dose?

01:29:39.520 Absolutely.

01:29:39.980 You find, you can find an IV clinic, right?

01:29:43.340 Those IV, IV bars.

01:29:45.000 You could find a doctor that has an IV.

01:29:47.540 I have IVs in the office.

01:29:49.600 An IV would cost you around, the most basic would cost you around $75.

01:29:53.280 You know, a really, really expensive one, because you're around $125, $130.

01:29:58.380 And this is only once a month that you need to do this?

01:30:00.160 Once a month.

01:30:01.320 It's your insurance payment.

01:30:02.620 I mean, less than that.

01:30:03.540 Less, a fraction.

01:30:05.020 And at least you know, it's actually going directly towards your healthcare.

01:30:08.460 Yeah.

01:30:09.240 Instead of going to some, you know, amorphous pile of money that you won't have access

01:30:13.020 to when the time comes.

01:30:14.280 You could get, you could have a health savings account, an HSA.

01:30:16.660 And this is, this is one of the tips that I wanted to give.

01:30:19.520 You can have an HSA.

01:30:20.580 An HSA takes money and puts it in your account, in a special account with a AT, with a debit

01:30:27.780 card, and it stays there.

01:30:30.180 Your deductible goes away.

01:30:32.600 Let's say you made that $6,500 deductible by December, with most people get to it.

01:30:37.620 They go, whoops, up, nope.

01:30:38.720 And they just pull it away from you.

01:30:40.080 If you put 60, if you put those 6,500 in an HSA, it's gathering a percentage interest

01:30:47.760 and it rolls over to the next year.

01:30:50.440 So if you want to get a surgery, if you want to get some, you know, some nice tits, you

01:30:54.960 can put it towards that.

01:30:55.780 David's been looking.

01:30:56.780 I've actually been looking.

01:30:57.640 That's why I mentioned it.

01:30:58.520 We were talking about it.

01:30:59.640 I know.

01:30:59.860 I said, I'm trying to reduce my nice tits.

01:31:01.720 We should do that with our, with the Nephilim death squad funds.

01:31:04.900 You should get third nipples, everybody.

01:31:06.320 Honestly, I would love to go get monthly IV infusions or I think that's a great idea because

01:31:11.260 I'm tired of feeling like shit.

01:31:13.480 I wonder if you, since you're feeling.

01:31:15.500 I'll do, if we do our next podcast, I'll bring all, everybody will have IV tent poles.

01:31:21.300 While we do the show?

01:31:22.180 We can do an IV cast.

01:31:22.920 What do I do when I got to piss?

01:31:24.700 I'll just have to, oh, Colossi of Venice.

01:31:27.160 I can bring, I can bring diapers too.

01:31:28.960 Awesome.

01:31:29.540 I like the warm feeling.

01:31:30.820 So, so I'm wondering since you're dealing with fighters who are in the gym and you say

01:31:36.200 immerse is basically a constant in the gym.

01:31:40.260 And I know from my own experience, when you go in there, it smells a very particular way.

01:31:47.080 And, and depending on what gym I've been to, a lot of MMA gyms depends on how there's

01:31:52.320 not just feet too, but it's like also like, how are they cleaning this place?

01:31:56.580 Some places are a lot more thorough than other places, right?

01:31:58.960 I'll give you a morbid piece of information.

01:32:01.620 Okay.

01:32:02.400 Not enough.

01:32:03.120 They're not cleaning it enough.

01:32:04.000 Jiu-jitsu gyms smell exactly like burn wards.

01:32:07.400 Really?

01:32:07.920 Oh, that's crazy.

01:32:09.960 Not the one that, not the one I bring my kids to.

01:32:11.940 That's what that smell is?

01:32:13.160 Whoa.

01:32:13.440 When people get burned in the hospital, what's the bacteria on top of the skin?

01:32:17.120 It's mersa.

01:32:18.260 So you smell.

01:32:19.100 It smells the same?

01:32:20.000 Strong smell.

01:32:20.280 Yeah.

01:32:20.740 Yeah.

01:32:21.640 So that's gross as shit.

01:32:23.340 Now, what I'm wondering is, are you seeing, how are the, the immune systems of fighters in

01:32:31.040 comparison to like the average person?

01:32:32.900 There's some fighters that do it well.

01:32:34.240 If you fight close to your weight, uh, your, your top shelf, if you do a massive weight

01:32:40.480 cut to reach to a weight, to have weight advantage, your immune system is jacked.

01:32:43.780 That's why we see so many fight cancellations in the UFC because people want to be weight

01:32:47.320 bullies and they want to have that weight advantage.

01:32:49.440 They don't fight close to their walk around weight and then they have bad outcomes.

01:32:53.260 Uh, that's why, uh, the Diaz brothers were always, you know, great and, you know, had

01:32:59.460 a lot of fights because they fought close to their weight.

01:33:02.280 They didn't cut a lot of weight.

01:33:03.400 Yeah.

01:33:03.500 Um, it's great champions like BJ Penn, uh, back in the day, you know, now has Capgras

01:33:08.700 syndrome and has a serious neurological disease that thinks that people are replaced with,

01:33:13.120 with, uh, I'm not sure he's, yeah, his mother was replaced or something like that.

01:33:17.880 Or seeing the stories.

01:33:18.640 Listen, she might've been replaced.

01:33:20.840 We don't know.

01:33:21.620 It could have been, you know, so look at her ass.

01:33:23.540 It's not my mom's ass.

01:33:24.340 These Hawaiian people, they get ugly as they age.

01:33:27.380 Well, that's the thing.

01:33:28.280 Yeah.

01:33:28.560 No.

01:33:29.180 Yeah.

01:33:31.540 Shut up to the Hawaiians.

01:33:34.020 You can find me in Tampa if you want to face it.

01:33:37.480 This is Puerto Rican in me.

01:33:38.720 It just came out.

01:33:39.460 I mean, I think that's true though.

01:33:40.740 They are pretty rough.

01:33:41.420 Look, I, I, I, whatever's going on with BJ Penn is, is one thing, but I think that that's

01:33:45.600 probably pretty accurate, right?

01:33:46.580 The weight cut is going to compromise your immune system.

01:33:49.520 Um, but I'm, I'm wondering, like, are you seeing the average fighter?

01:33:54.780 Struggle with, you know, infection or, or, or let's say respiratory issues more than the

01:34:00.620 average person, the non-fighter.

01:34:02.960 I've seen like female fighters.

01:34:04.460 I'll let you answer, but it seems like female fighters suffer the worst, like between the

01:34:08.740 weight cuts and then whatever else is going on in their body, these guys can't seem to

01:34:12.840 regulate and they all seem to get sick.

01:34:15.280 Yeah.

01:34:15.300 Hormonally.

01:34:15.660 Hormonally.

01:34:16.120 I mean, when you're a professional athlete and you're a female, you're suppressing a lot

01:34:19.680 of the, the, the excretion of estrogen having less body fat.

01:34:24.020 Cause body fat is, you know, it's, uh, estrogen active.

01:34:28.080 So that's, that's what happened when you have runners and fighters, they don't get their

01:34:32.520 periods.

01:34:33.420 So they kind of flip their hormones.

01:34:36.380 Uh, and that's, they get a lot of trouble from it, but most fighters are healthier than

01:34:40.220 the average person because they pay a little bit more attention.

01:34:42.840 If I, they have the challenges, I have the MRSA, they have the, the, the, the traumatic,

01:34:47.400 um, the CTE, all that stuff, but comparing it to it, that's why most people that are not

01:34:54.240 fighters that get involved in like, I want to go to a Muay Thai gym, you know, 52, I want

01:34:59.180 to go to a Muay Thai gym and, uh, you know, and, and learn Muay Thai, you'll get healthier.

01:35:04.660 You eventually, if you stay long enough, your abdomen is going to get flat.

01:35:07.760 You're going to feel really great.

01:35:10.340 Um, and it, combat sport, that's why it's so popular because practicing, it makes you

01:35:15.080 really healthy.

01:35:15.980 And if you do jujitsu and you're doing the acai bowls and all that, and it's expensive

01:35:20.280 as hell.

01:35:21.200 Yeah.

01:35:21.600 It's like $500 a month fees and equipment and injuries that you're going to get, but

01:35:27.580 you're going to get a lot healthier.

01:35:29.000 I was wondering about that because I remember after, you know, after the whole cancer thing

01:35:33.640 and then the ammonia, I was kind of confused.

01:35:35.720 Cause I was like, dude, I'm in, I, at the time I was like in some of the best shape

01:35:41.280 of my life and these things were happening to me.

01:35:43.760 And I was like, let me find out that there's a correlation between like, yeah, sure.

01:35:47.320 I was in good shape physically, but I was being exposed to this thing or that thing.

01:35:51.040 But I think it was likely just the, uh, the cancer, um, that really screwed up my immune

01:35:56.320 system.

01:35:56.640 But that, that, that is interesting.

01:35:57.880 Cause yeah, it's a trade-off, right?

01:35:59.480 I mean, when you look at it financially and sure you're going to have those injuries and

01:36:03.700 things like that, but it's a kind of a funny catch 22 that you're going and beating the

01:36:08.480 shit out of yourself, but also you're increasing your health.

01:36:10.540 I stopped for that reason because it's like, I was getting injuries to like my, my groin

01:36:14.960 area specifically.

01:36:15.820 I don't know if something about the movement.

01:36:17.220 And then I had to go build tracks at night.

01:36:19.740 And I'm just like, I simply can't do it.

01:36:21.760 Yeah.

01:36:21.980 Fighters are healthy because they're, they're training and they're not putting their body

01:36:25.680 in any other stress.

01:36:26.700 And when I'm doing it, when they're doing it, the professional, like Joel Romero, like

01:36:30.400 that guy is, well, he's something, there's something different.

01:36:33.060 He's built.

01:36:33.760 Yeah.

01:36:34.120 Different.

01:36:34.620 He's built.

01:36:35.040 He's actually built different.

01:36:36.080 Yeah.

01:36:38.860 Superhero.

01:36:39.460 But us, you know, I have to be a doctor and go to jujitsu in the afternoon and I'm not

01:36:46.180 going to be as present and taking care of my body.

01:36:49.560 Like I'll do these IVs and peptides and I'm going to have a meal prep system.

01:36:54.600 I could, but it's just a lot of fucking work.

01:36:57.420 And then it works like that.

01:36:58.640 So when you do combat sports and you take the extra steps to take care of your body,

01:37:02.080 then, then things get really, you might've been pushing your body to a limit and not

01:37:07.080 giving it enough resources to deal with the stressors.

01:37:10.620 Well, that's a, that's a hard thing too, because, um, I was pretty knowledgeable about

01:37:14.580 health and nutrition and I, I still am, although I'm not, uh, implementing any of

01:37:18.640 it and, um, and, uh, and I'm also, you know, pushing really hard on the fitness front, but

01:37:27.820 these are like two schools of thought.

01:37:31.520 Like these are two in-depth, uh, topics that you have to learn about.

01:37:35.860 And then because I have no formal schooling, it's like, Oh, that's not working.

01:37:40.160 Got to tweak this a little bit.

01:37:41.300 That's not working.

01:37:41.980 Let me tweak that.

01:37:42.820 And let me pull this out and try introducing that.

01:37:45.280 And so it's all like learning on the fly.

01:37:47.940 Um, it's something that, you know, we get taught a plethora of things in school and so

01:37:54.840 many of them are, are useless, especially within the public school system.

01:37:57.680 Um, I, I think obviously more, uh, just fundamental knowledge on like health and nutrition and,

01:38:04.140 and, uh, and, you know, fitness would be, it would go a long way, but otherwise, you

01:38:10.600 know, you have basically podcasts that, that was my learning mechanism for all of this shit

01:38:16.060 was like podcast.

01:38:16.820 And, and then I'm at the mercy of whoever the guest is and, and I'm just trying to implement

01:38:21.700 this new thing and see how that feels.

01:38:23.300 But it's, uh, it's hard, man.

01:38:24.960 It's, it's not easy.

01:38:25.960 And, and that is being driven towards that thing.

01:38:30.220 We already laid out all the things that are pitted against the average person.

01:38:32.940 You don't really have time for that.

01:38:34.080 So it's, it's, it's difficult.

01:38:35.800 Sounds like a lot of excuses to me, David.

01:38:37.240 It definitely is.

01:38:38.080 Uh, what do you, what do you want to see from the medical industry at large?

01:38:43.880 Like if you could implement some fundamental changes, uh, across the board on the medical

01:38:49.920 system that we have here in the West, what would, what would some of those things be?

01:38:53.160 I would, what I want to see is younger physicians that get inspired and say, Hey, I want to bring

01:39:00.300 my personal brand of medicine within the guidelines, but my personal brand of medicine, and I'm

01:39:07.300 going to take my time to build a patient base.

01:39:09.340 I'm going to delay that instant gratification of having a $20,000 a month salary, but it's

01:39:16.480 going to be, the salary is going to be bigger, but I'm going to build a community and I'm

01:39:19.800 going to be working for my community of patients that is going to obligate the corporate systems

01:39:26.880 to compete.

01:39:27.720 Right now there's no competition.

01:39:29.480 Yeah.

01:39:29.640 There's none, there's none.

01:39:31.220 If enough of us have this alternate system that patients can trust and say, Hey, you know,

01:39:36.420 maybe you want a core, maybe you want a big campus hospital and that's what, and that's

01:39:40.960 fine.

01:39:41.720 You know, we have our, our independence of thought.

01:39:43.860 No, no, no, no, no.

01:39:44.460 I trust, you know, I tell, I trust the, the bad bunny hospital.

01:39:48.740 I want to go to the bad bunny hospital and the bad bunny hospital is, is a large campus.

01:39:54.000 They have great music.

01:39:55.540 Uh, I see AI, but I mean, it's great.

01:39:58.420 Good.

01:39:59.640 Do you, but we have this other environment, this other environment that you could get care

01:40:05.280 for, and it's different.

01:40:06.600 If enough of us, uh, do that, we become undeniable and they have to compete and at least improve

01:40:13.580 their standards a little bit, become a little bit more human and more affordable.

01:40:18.440 But right now with that law, that Obamacare law, we can't own hospitals.

01:40:22.300 We can't compete with them because the government says, no, no, no, no, no, there's a, you know,

01:40:27.420 they want that lobby money.

01:40:28.680 But, you know, eventually it will come.

01:40:31.940 I think it will come and, uh, and we will be able to create this alternate, um, environment

01:40:36.740 where people feel safe and people love it and hospitals will have to copy it and, and

01:40:41.780 have it, have it as well.

01:40:43.200 That, that, I want that to happen.

01:40:45.160 I want that to happen too, man.

01:40:46.500 Because like, like I said, uh, when I look at doctors in general, I'm immediately skeptical.

01:40:54.560 Yeah.

01:40:54.660 And it shouldn't be that way.

01:40:55.880 The past five years really did that to us.

01:40:57.680 Yeah.

01:40:57.960 I mean, you know, you, you busted your ass to do what you did and be where you're at and

01:41:02.160 accrue the knowledge that you have.

01:41:03.540 But there's people out there that are just following orders.

01:41:06.440 People that are just lying.

01:41:08.020 There's people that just want to be part of that big system.

01:41:10.460 And it's at the behest of, you know, like, I mean, people are suffering for it.

01:41:15.920 So now I'm like, I don't, I don't even know what to do.

01:41:18.940 I, I dismissed them as a whole and that's not the right thing.

01:41:22.340 That's like stupid on my part as well.

01:41:24.060 That's a baby with the bathwater.

01:41:25.320 It's a, yeah, I know.

01:41:26.020 But like, I'm going to, we're in a situation where I'm kind of like drastic times, drastic

01:41:30.120 measures.

01:41:31.580 Like, what am I going to get?

01:41:32.940 Like generally from a doctor, you're going to get the prescribed response of X, Y, Z.

01:41:37.300 You're not even going to get, you're not going to get critical thinking or thinking out

01:41:40.300 outside of what's allowed.

01:41:42.160 Yeah.

01:41:42.660 Of what they're told.

01:41:43.820 I have a.

01:41:44.760 And it's a, it's a relief talking to you because you have opinions about things that are not

01:41:49.840 just the standard conventional outside of the, you know, right out of college.

01:41:54.040 This is what, this is what I'm told.

01:41:55.820 This is what the textbook said.

01:41:56.940 You must do.

01:41:57.660 It's like, we need more of that.

01:42:00.000 And, and there, and that will instill faith in the, the doctors, the people it's, it's freaking

01:42:06.100 worrying, man.

01:42:06.860 Like, who do you go to for advice?

01:42:08.980 Who do you go to for this shit that actually matters?

01:42:10.720 Like, like you said, they, they actually do know.

01:42:13.440 Yeah.

01:42:13.680 But I'm like, I'm hesitant to ask.

01:42:15.300 I'm hesitant to even approach these guys because.

01:42:18.660 Well, quick anecdote.

01:42:19.640 I went to my childhood doctor for my, my son when he was messed up and all he wanted to

01:42:24.520 do was just like diagnose vaccines.

01:42:26.600 And I was like, no, no doc.

01:42:27.580 Like, like he's, uh, he's sick.

01:42:29.800 Like we're, we need help.

01:42:31.480 He's having behavioral issues.

01:42:32.700 And he was like, he's not up to date on his backs.

01:42:34.560 And I was just like, this is not a system I can be a part of.

01:42:38.660 And, and it's hurting everybody.

01:42:40.740 Cause this guy has a wealth of knowledge and I, and it's just like inaccessible for whatever

01:42:46.020 reason.

01:42:46.360 I cannot access the, the part that actually matters from this dude.

01:42:50.280 And it's like, it's a travesty.

01:42:52.060 Yeah.

01:42:52.600 So the competition, we need that because that will make these doctors that are in that

01:42:57.340 system actually have to doctor.

01:42:59.900 Yeah.

01:43:00.420 And the only way that we, we get that is we, we need people like you to actually look at

01:43:06.720 that fork in the road where you go become part of the system or take this thing.

01:43:10.160 Well, it's not just him, but it's people that are going to be watching that have to become

01:43:14.440 aware of the option.

01:43:15.520 They don't, they're not necessarily aware.

01:43:17.560 So they have to choose that.

01:43:19.300 And then once they see, once other doctors see, Oh, look at the success.

01:43:23.060 Like this is an option.

01:43:24.220 They have to see it's a viable path.

01:43:25.980 Yep.

01:43:26.400 And then that proliferates.

01:43:27.660 And then you start to multiply, extrapolate on that.

01:43:30.480 And then you change.

01:43:31.640 When I started four or five years ago with this endeavor, and it was, it was around the

01:43:36.820 time I, I, uh, I appeared on the 10 full.

01:43:39.140 That's when I first saw you.

01:43:40.240 And I was like, this guy is great.

01:43:41.420 I love this dude.

01:43:41.980 We, I started at first, I was seeing one or two patients.

01:43:45.340 I blew through my savings, but I was like, I don't care.

01:43:48.940 You know?

01:43:49.420 And the cheesy burn the boats thing, the, yeah, but that's it.

01:43:52.640 That's it.

01:43:53.660 You're either doing it or you're not doing it.

01:43:55.820 You either, are you all in or not?

01:43:57.860 Right.

01:43:58.160 I quickly under, I'm like, shit, people are now taking care of me.

01:44:02.720 People are, I treated one patient great and people were skeptical.

01:44:06.900 They're like, are you really a doctor?

01:44:08.040 I'm like, fuck.

01:44:08.580 Yeah.

01:44:08.820 This is my fucking diploma.

01:44:10.240 I'm a doctor.

01:44:10.660 I have 13 years of experience.

01:44:13.100 I'm not, they're like, but $50, that's, that's nothing.

01:44:16.760 And I'm like, I could charge you a hundred if you want.

01:44:19.340 Right.

01:44:19.840 It makes me feel better.

01:44:21.000 But the, the more and more, and I started with two, three patients.

01:44:25.280 Now, five years later, I have a panel of 700 patients.

01:44:29.520 Nice.

01:44:30.080 That's awesome, man.

01:44:31.420 Good.

01:44:32.020 That's great.

01:44:32.520 That 700 people found you.

01:44:33.800 That means 700 people have broken away from this parasitic system.

01:44:36.700 How are you, how are you, uh, finding the, how are they?

01:44:40.660 Finding you?

01:44:41.460 Is it like local stuff or is it word of mouth?

01:44:43.820 Word of mouth.

01:44:44.280 Wow.

01:44:44.540 I held back.

01:44:45.900 I'm like, I'm not going to go through the Facebook, Instagram.

01:44:49.120 I'm not going to pay some, some, uh, tech bro in Cali to do some cheesy reels for me.

01:44:55.020 I'm going to do my own social media.

01:44:56.820 Like you see on my IG, I do my own shit.

01:44:59.100 I even post rap videos.

01:45:00.580 Me, I post the randomest shit, nothing having to do with my personal practice.

01:45:05.380 You like me as a person, um, you know, come, come here, find out what we got in the clinic

01:45:11.400 going on.

01:45:12.520 Um, that's a preacher colon.

01:45:15.960 Oh, go up, go, go up a second there.

01:45:17.600 Look at that.

01:45:18.180 Go up, go higher, higher, higher.

01:45:19.580 There's a knee somewhere around there without an ACL.

01:45:22.420 That's so gnarly right there to the left.

01:45:24.780 A knee without ACL.

01:45:26.160 Oh, take a look at it.

01:45:26.860 Take a look at it.

01:45:28.980 Oh, yes.

01:45:32.100 Is that an injury or is that just, that's an old injury.

01:45:34.720 Just born this way, baby.

01:45:35.860 Damn dog.

01:45:36.960 You're so flexible.

01:45:38.060 Oh, that's crazy, man.

01:45:43.820 Well, I think that part of the game is, is going to be, I'm glad that word of mouth is

01:45:47.680 what worked for you because that's, that's pretty much all we have.

01:45:50.860 If, if people are shocked by the system and they want to detach from it, they're going

01:45:56.040 to start looking for things and it's only going to be, you know, kind of podcasts or

01:45:59.900 who's telling your story.

01:46:01.220 And not only is it great for the patient, but like top said, it's like, you need to

01:46:06.680 show that your model can be successful so that these people who are, it's still, you

01:46:11.960 know, it's still going to feel like a risk until this alternative system that you're a

01:46:15.940 part of gets built up enough that people will feel comfortable.

01:46:19.640 This is the same thing.

01:46:20.460 My story.

01:46:21.040 It's like my dad, I really good job MTA.

01:46:24.780 And my dad's like, do that until you retire, till you die.

01:46:27.800 They're going to continue to pay you.

01:46:28.980 You have a guaranteed paycheck.

01:46:30.080 They can't fire you.

01:46:30.900 And I was like, I fucking hate this and I can't, yeah, I can't do it.

01:46:37.040 And, and he's like, what are you going to do?

01:46:39.080 And I'm like, I'm going to do my own thing.

01:46:41.200 And it's like, well, what does that look like?

01:46:42.540 Has anyone else done that?

01:46:43.440 I'm like, no, no one else is doing it.

01:46:47.360 And, and he's like, that's stupid.

01:46:49.000 You got a family.

01:46:50.240 And I was like, just trust me.

01:46:51.580 Just watch, watch what I, I mean, and then I, you just do it.

01:46:55.440 You just be brave.

01:46:56.300 Take the step out there, which you didn't.

01:46:57.960 Yeah.

01:46:58.220 I love, maybe it's a Puerto Rican thing.

01:46:59.880 Shout out Puerto Rico.

01:47:00.760 Puerto Rico.

01:47:02.060 That's why, that's why you suck, dude.

01:47:03.800 I thought it was a trash, it was a bunch of trash things.

01:47:04.680 It is a trash island, but it's a, it's a, there's, there's plantains.

01:47:07.960 It's a trash, it's a, it's a trash island.

01:47:09.680 I think plantains might have, so if you eat tostones and mofongo, eventually you'll become

01:47:14.420 one of them.

01:47:14.760 I had mofongo once and I was upset.

01:47:16.320 I was very upset, actually.

01:47:17.700 I don't remember what mofongo is, but it was very bland and I was very upset.

01:47:21.400 Oh, it needs to be an older lady doing it.

01:47:24.240 Yeah.

01:47:24.580 You know what it was?

01:47:26.800 I went into, it was a Puerto Rican restaurant, but everybody that seemed to work there was

01:47:30.320 white.

01:47:30.540 Well, there's your first sign.

01:47:32.920 There's your sign, dog.

01:47:34.680 It was the best the place had to offer.

01:47:36.460 It was a mountain town and they were trying to bring a little bit of something different

01:47:40.040 to the small sleepy town.

01:47:41.420 And then some way people bought mofongo and it wasn't good.

01:48:53.140 I do PFL.

01:48:54.060 I do UFCs when they're here in Tampa.

01:48:55.860 So that's awesome.

01:48:56.620 I've been doing that for 13 years.

01:48:57.800 So that's my passion.

01:48:58.900 I can no longer fight or do any of those things meaningful.

01:49:01.760 So I take care of the people that fight.

01:49:03.640 So that's meaningful, dog.

01:49:05.540 That's meaningful, especially for them.

01:49:08.040 Will you come out to the next Bohemian Grove?

01:49:10.140 We're looking at February, March.

01:49:14.260 I'm going to do the first super hippie Bohemian Grove clinic.

01:49:18.840 Last time I wanted to do like a free cannabis card table.

01:49:22.400 Yeah, that was my fault.

01:49:24.240 It's just everything got so crazy leading up to it with the cancellation of the venue and everything.

01:49:29.060 And so that's what happened.

01:49:30.120 We lost that theater and everything went nuts.

01:49:32.020 But what do you want to set up?

01:49:34.100 I want to set up a table where people go get refills.

01:49:47.100 Burning Man?

01:49:48.140 What we're going to do is we're going to have free health care for the people that come to the Bohemian Grove.

01:49:53.900 That would be awesome.

01:49:55.620 I think that's really cool.
