The podcast features a lively, conversational discussion with Dr. Mike, a guest renowned for his medical knowledge. The hosts explore various topics ranging from medical myths to personal anecdotes, including the dangers of using Q-tips in the ears, which can lead to ear infections due to skin irritation and damage. They debunk the popular myth that drinking urine is healthy or hydrating, noting it lacks benefits and may even be harmful. The conversation also touches on the body's natural self-cleaning mechanisms, such as earwax that naturally flows out, and highlights the risks of self-diagnosis or medical experimentation. A segment on the absurdity of celebrities drinking urine is presented as a prank gone viral, with Dr. Mike emphasizing the lack of medical value in such practices. The episode also reflects on the importance of medical transparency, patient trust, and the role of social media in shaping public perception of healthcare. Additional topics include the inefficiency of outdated dietary guidelines like the food pyramid, the role of lifestyle in health (e.g., hot dogs and processed meats), and the importance of medical professionals maintaining empathy and patient-centered care. The hosts conclude with a humorous yet informative reflection on the body’s anatomy, including the functionality of the appendix and the significance of organs like the brain and heart, while acknowledging that many common beliefs are oversimplified or misinformed. Throughout, the tone remains engaging and accessible, blending humor with factual medical insight.
- Welcome back to The Basement Yar, today me and Frank are on the same side, because we have a special guest, the smartest person who's ever been on this show by a hundred million miles. - Definitely, without a doubt. - Dr. Mike is with that. I don't know if this is a diss or a comment. No, no, no, no, no. How is that? Well, it's out now. I can't hear to be fair In our current setup the only other people we've had on here are red and link and they're very smart. I forgot about them They're very smart, but not as medically smart and part of them is really tall a problem. What is with hold on hold on hold on? I'm gonna say this if you're watching someone on YouTube chances are they're over six and a half feet tall I don't know what the fuck this guy walked in and I'm expecting Dr. Mike to come in and he's like a doctor I'm like a doctor. I've always had short doctors. Well because a lot of them have a god complex and That's crazy. I mean it's true. I mean surgeons. That's right. I would probably throw surgeons That's what I was referencing as well. Do you find that a lot of doctors are shorter than you? I think it's a mixed bag. You're six two. Yeah, six three. That me too. Yeah. No, you're not Well if I'm wearing my Vomero premium pluses or whatever they're called then I'm an easily six five. What is that? Are those doctors shoes? No, those are like the new Nike's that have the amount of padding that basically you don't need to hide your inserts Nice. Gotcha. So you're going like to cruise level in some of these proud of those Good for you man. I should wear an insert. You definitely should All right, you're getting crazy or get the the surgery that like can make legs. Don't do that. Is that a thing? I heard it's very painful though. It's called to live take a hammer and they hey, we're going to let you I'm also never performed this procedure. No, nor have I consulted on that procedure But yes, that's the they break it, but they do like they create a little space in order for the bone to heal and they Progressively do that over and over. So there's in a movie recently your bones will just heal towards each other. Yeah The space is really little and over time. Oh, and they have these screws that they tighten and they keep growing the materialists That was that the one Dakota Johnson. You've seen it too, right? Pedro Pascal is like five two and then all of a sudden she finds out Oh, he got the tall guy surgery and he's like six one. So he Benjamin button. He bet he reversed Benjamin button. Okay. How long is that? It's long. It's tough and imagine you're not walking comfortably. So there's a lot of rehab Required for that. It sounds like a year and it sounds expensive like it's like I'm sure it is Classified is cosmetic as us medical professionals. Well, it is in some cases, but there are cases Medically where someone has let's say both lives and they need to straighten them. So in those Situations you're using the procedure for we all know that person in high school that walk like they wrote a horse I know but they always had a great jump shot for some reason I leave a little jump shot, but they shot it like this Yeah, well, you know now everyone who is one of those three-point shooting champions that set all the Guinness World Records They don't have good form. Yeah, you're talking basketball brother. Yeah, you're above my head. You go back to the medical stuff You haven't seen I'm not a good basketball's not my thing. I'll baseball football But it is the basketball guy over here, but you've seen what I'm talking about This very awkward shooting form that if you play in a pickup game, you'll get blocked nine out of ten times, right? But when you're just shooting by yourself, you can make you just hit them. Doc, you ball up. Yeah, you ball up You got a jumper. Yeah He's like board. He's not great. I played in Madison's court garden before I play some places. Yeah, where did you guys? That's a bigger flag What this is not your show right now back to us. What the hell are you wearing? I was a plague doctor and I was gonna wear this but I couldn't breathe and you guys didn't send it to be fast enough So yeah, I'm just gonna hold it. Just show them. That's what doesn't matter. Okay, shove it down you throw But yeah, I played on the court. What the hell? Yeah, sorry about that. Well, thanks for joining us today. We really appreciate it We're excited now that we know that you also play basketball. We're gonna challenge you to a game in basketball one day hype But we in preparation for the show we talk a lot and professionally and Some would argue stupidly and we often pretend that we know the answers to a lot of what we're talking about when chances are one of us doesn't One of us is on a hot streak lately He had one episode last week that he said like two things that were correct in a row. What were the things? Well, one of them, you know, put this one to bed You don't need to be a doctor to figure this one out, but he can't get an expression correctly And he said what was it which part you know it so here's the expression tell me if you've heard it, okay? The pen is my dear than the sword, but the tongue can lick them both That's incorrect My only question here What phase of your life were you hearing and then what phase of your life were you repeating that statement? One of my with the most confidence on this show and when have I repeated it all face Everything every as soon as I heard it. I said wow, that's really good He's a walking example of if you just say something like definitively. Yeah, people usually just Wow, you know what I mean well hold on now you're painting me as some sort of psychopath here. What do you think the show is? I mean, you just did a video where you well not just did but like you you talked to a bunch of like Surrounded. Yeah surrounded by like anti-vaxxers. Yes. Yes. Yes. So you've probably dealt with people like Joey and I we're like we're gonna say it We're gonna be confident about it I'm not an anti-vaxxer either. Let me make that very clear What in the the generality of like we're gonna say it we're gonna be confident about it And we're not gonna look up any truth behind it. Okay. How do you can you confirm that you dealt with people like that? I've dealt with people who were Less interested in being immune to disease and more interested in being being immune to logic and facts. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I was honestly impressed with Your restraint dude I would do why you would you would just be like like at a certain because you were just so patient and nice with them That I'm like at a certain point because they are saying offensive things Yeah, yeah, at one point someone's like no because I actually read Yes, now she goes I actually read a study which is wild. I mean because I was like are you discounting the decade plus of education? Well, I didn't read so this is it. This is it like a serious question that I have now Oh, oh this one. Yeah, like in yours. No, I do not look swords Well, the technically speaking the tongue can lick both a pen and a sword But like did you have to go through like training on like how to deal with People like psychologically. Yeah, it's called medical school like Why is everyone giving me so much credit for being patient? Are your doctors douchebags to you? Absolutely. Um, I think it's really kind of Yeah, are they I got into a fight at the hospital last year. I told you this I couldn't get up I was in the hospital for some stuff infections. That's things That's the medical term we need the plague doctor to come in and confirm But it's so a doctor came in to speak with me and was you know I was expressing my frustration with the the facility with my situation and he cut me off and he's like listen young man Consider yourself lucky That you're being treated and like listen I I am very much so like when it comes to like customer service representatives and people dealing with people like that. I I'm very patient But in that situation like to sit there and just be like you listen it like basically wagging his finger in my face. I was like what's that? So I was a god complex. I got it was right? Yeah, I got fucking heated and back of like My wife had to like put her hands on me. She's like you need a chill. Wow. Okay. Frankie left a bad yellow for you after that. Oh, yeah I'm not big on yelp. I've never yelp I've never yelp, but so we in preparation for today's episode wrote down a couple questions that we need to help with. Okay, personally. Uh, well, no, no Not personally You wonder too and that might be personal for me. I cannot confirm that all them will be personal for any of us. Maybe aunt I see at least seven on there that are specifically personal Someone we got to. I don't like that So I guess we can kind of start with the top one you brought up in one of your videos Someone in this room has incredibly wet ears Now no, that's not how you say it Wet soaking wet Just say a regular wet wet You're performing now you're showing off regular wet Say it how you would normally say it. I have wet ears. Yeah, that's crazy. That's interesting. That's in yeah There's something I do medically what the hell is that yeah, why would he have why would he have wet ears and like could he like Do some to help also they're wet Right now like a lot right now with these on and this hat eventually they'll be they'll be soaking. Well, that's sweat. No, no, no inside, you know Well, like why would he have wet ears? I'm worried about infection. Yeah, okay. Yeah, because that wet can be discharge Oh, that's a bad one. That's that's concerning. Yeah, gross word. Um also genetically His ear wax might be thinner. Oh You're talking shit about your dad too. Yeah, your dad is my dad's ear sucked in ear wax So like wait hold on now. This is a serious question, too. There's different textures
You have thicker ones some people have drier thicker some people have wetter Be on it thinner you like those videos of people like getting them out of their ears. I hate it. Oh Hate Yes, I love them. Do you know how many people come to me with busted tympanic membranes because they were digging around in their ears I'm watching a video. We're gonna back that up. We're gonna real quick. What's the definition of what's a tympani? Ear drum, okay, you could have used the layman's turn. Oh, I have to flex. Yeah So if I because I have one of those. Yeah, don't look for it So it's next to the the the hammer and the cup. Oh this babies. You're giving me all the right I got I got stavies, baby. No, there's like the cochlear thing in there, right? Yeah, the cochlear nerve so So no shit, bro. Wait, this is really interesting because everyone loves digging in their ears with q-tips And that is the bane of every ENT doctors world and family medicine because they create so much irritation inside their ears They get something known as otitis Xterna. Oh God. It sounds like a recipe outer ear infection Okay, we like creating fancy terms for Can't you get like a surgery to prevent like chronic ear infections? No, what they do is they put tubes in in order to decrease that pressure from people who get recurrent infection. Yeah for kids usually. Yeah, yeah, so how am I supposed to clean my ears? You don't do something to yourself. Yeah, if you get a buildup of ear wax and you're like, oh now I can't hear because I have a build of ear wax There's drops that melt the ear wax make it more wet No, and it cleans itself and it has a good shape Actually, the ear canal is shaped such that it's supposed to make the ear wax naturally come out and you could just wipe the outside Which is what's happening? I'll be hanging out sometimes. I'll just go like that and fucking ear wax will fall out if the Qtips aren't supposed to be in there. Why does it feel so good when you put them in your ear? Oh, is there like a g-spot in your ear? I've never heard it ask that way What happens when you use Qtips? I don't use Qtips. I am an anti-Qtiper. Yeah, I haven't used a Qtip in a while The Qtip is meant for external cleaning purposes like that right here. Yeah, okay, so Don't put it inside your ear and what happens is if you have already irritated skin inside the ear canal And then you're rubbing it just like when you have an itchy spot from like eczema It's itchy and it feels good to scratch it, but then you're damaging your skin. So same principle just inside your ear. I'll tell you what There was a time where I've probably done irreversible damage to my ear because I'm thinking that if I got this thing They're like I've heard that you don't use a Qtip. You're pushing the ear wax in and that's true too But so I'm like, okay, that's the only issue with Qtips because I don't know. So you were scooping so I was scooping Oh, that's dangerous. Yeah, well, yeah, cuz you're hitting the skin inside there. Yeah again ear wax is also protective It prevents the ear canal from drying out It prevents bugs from wanting to hang out there. It catches debris. Yo, I know how often how often is that a big thing? That should happens my fucking I know someone that like they were on like a canoe kayak situation down a river and a fucking moth flew in their ear. Oh Does that something you see? I mean not often okay good, but I did just have a pediatric ear doctor come on my show Tell me about a situation where child was eating a sandwich and Had some throw pain afterwards and they thought oh, it's a barbecue Maybe there was a metal wire girl brush stuck in their throat And they did see something on the image of it. They couldn't quite see what it was any guesses spider and I I don't know pre mantis potato chip That's your guess They're spiky. They heard sometimes. I don't know the final letter of whatever it is you that you're saying. It's always What they don't chip Cockroach like Leg with the little spines. Oh, that's why I don't know what the medical term for the cockroach leg spine Yeah, it's like one of those you know what I mean? They're barbed like barbed barbed. That was cold You do I told you on this smart one It's a cockroach like Well, you grew up in the same well you grew up in New York. You're on our age A couple years older, which means you're basically agent to us Did you ever hear the myth of the person that got like cockroach eggs in their tongue or something like that? Do you remember that I remember it was like one of those like 90s myths that like like Marilyn Manson taking you know The ribs out or something like that, but it was like the story was like someone licked an envelope that had a cockroach egg on it And it got into like the crease of their tongue and then they had like tongue pain and they cut it open and fucking like Cockroach eggs fell out and she like that. Oh my god. It sounds like a roof. Please believe it or not It was it was and it was hosted by Dean Kane and he's never not been anything but incredibly accurate about everything No idea who that is now I'm just terrified because this thing can this can I can my I'm just I just irritated my ear But it's fine. I can well, I'm hoping you solved it like your body's immune system solved it and the repair mechanism So well, I haven't I also didn't know that you just don't clean out your ears. You're not supposed to do that self cleaning self cleaning ears and vaginas Two miracles of life. No self cleaning. Yeah Yeah, you should brush that I'm not trying to do this to frank in front of guests obviously, but this is good the cockroach egg case Hatching on a tongue a persistent urban legend and a hoax. That's what I said it was a popular rumor I didn't say it was real. You asked him to try to get me into that. No, I tried to ask if you've ever heard of something like that How much did RK pay you to say? Yeah, that's crazy. No, you're trying to get me. No He's made me nothing trust me. Um, he does love whole milk though, so we don't know to be fair whole milk is delicious as long as you go raw We're okay in a hot tub with kid rock though. I don't know any drink that would be good enough to have that Are you a big fan of the raw milk content? I am not I'm I'm the enemy. I'm not you're an anti-milker Yeah, I'm wrong. I mean I think of myself less as an anti raw milker and more of an anti-get Parasite bacteria in your colon or oh, we're on the same page. Yeah, I feel like we're right there I'd like to have that out of my colon as well What I'm not even gonna talk about your colon and can you tee up the next question for us, please sir Which anything specific from your life? See stop doing this Frankie S here. I didn't ask anything I we were asked to provide questions and I provided a talk Okay, so does eating one hotdog really take 10 minutes away from your life doesn't apply to you at all that one is me That one is on you said me. Yeah, 10 minutes. Well, they said I mean like yeah, how do you say? Big big doctor a big doctor. Yeah These population studies cannot be translated into Statistics that simplest that simplistically So when we say like oh in general nuts are healthy to eat yes people love nuts people should enjoy nuts, but The nut is not going to make you live eight years longer. Yeah, so these are epidemiological studies that have been oversimplified So no a hotdog does not show it in your life by 10 minutes. Thank God, but it could be a factor in it It could but it's an ultra processed meat which you should limit in your diet Well, what if you get like good deli hot dogs still ultra processed July What about? Yeah, like what if it's like does the does the having it with a beer or seven beers? Offset the damage of the hotdog you sound like I had this this is sick I had a doctor come on my show and tell me that a healthy diet can remove the negative impacts of smoking and he's like if you smoke You can live longer. He said that on my show to my face You know, if you just you're ever wanted to hit my head Yeah, I mean, that's why I couldn't believe you when you're watching the when I'm watching this around it I'm like this is me no the smoking thing got me like hard to hit me in the heart I'm like you're you operated on people's hearts. If you think smoking yeah, yeah, and he's just saying like if you eat healthy But you just yeah, and he said the longest living people in the world smokes who we should also and I'm like bro What is with that? There's like all the Italian women who live in the hills and they're like, oh, I'm a hundred and nine and I have wine every day and I you know Well, yeah, she's the one that makes the video that goes viral, but her 99 friends that had the same lifestyle that didn't live long No one's hearing their tiktoks from the grave 42 yeah, that's when like R.F.K. Goes we got to make America healthy again I'm like which time frame do you want to go back to cuz in the 1900s we lived to age 30 right? What are ancestors lived and I'm like they were five two to stop meant death Yeah, he would visit you in that outfit to tell me or Diarrhea die from diarrhea. I'd be dead a hundred million times worldwide people are still dying of diarrhea Yeah, it's a problem elsewhere. We know this I am now I'm gonna hit you No, like obviously we're big fans of hot dogs here and we like to indulge every now and every day. I'm not Hyper-optimist how much enjoy a hot dog. How much you like hot dog? I love hot dogs Sour crowd mustard. Oh, he hates mustard. I hate mustard. Yeah, love sauerkraut Love sauerkraut just it tastes like just garbage. He had an experience when he was younger and I think that like it's just carried Oh, yeah, it's shaped the rest of my life I was like feel free to say pass. Oh, no, I'm gonna tell you You ask me for a story This could be wildly If you ask her for a story you're getting it my father died. No, mustard. I was like young I was like five or six. They can open his tongue. There was mustard seeds. I'm really just like when you're a kid when like you We want you need to know exactly what you're eating although
the time I was like five or six and someone gave me a baloney sandwich and I fucking love baloney oh okay and I didn't realize that on the baloney sandwich was mustard so when I bit into it it's the shock it was so shocking to me and then since then I've not had it I mean we could pull back the fourth wall a little bit I've had mustard recently and like in the near like recent feut like the recent future the recent one that's coming soon the recent pass and it's just like all right but like yellow mustard I can't even I can't even stomach it so golden honey what's like like like you want to go when he's nugget in a honey mustard no no no honey mustard it's crazy that you don't like no I can't honey mustard it's candy yeah but yeah what's in it though honey and mustard well exactly in the Wendy's one that's question yeah yeah I mean we don't want them they go like never frozen meat but you don't know what's in our honey I forgot what it was I think it was like a Starbucks drink or something one time and they like put out this unicorn frappe or something like that and literally one of the ingredients was pink yeah and I was like how is that legal to say just pink pink I know it's pink yeah well we just wanted to make sure we knew where you stood on hot dogs I love hot dogs how often how many a year would you say on average you have and be fucking honest I'm sorry sorry sorry I'll have 20 a year dude that's a good number 20 a year god damn it and he's and only because when I do indulge and set a hot dog it's crazy I do three yeah you have to if you're at the barbecue right and people are like I'm taking orders hot dogs hamburgers and are we counting three dogs picking blanket no those one picks in a blanket duck we're talking about hundreds now yeah yeah the big places where I have them are at sporting events right because I know Madison Square Garden as you experts will know right right they have fancy foods now yeah they do you think you get like a fish so when I go to a sports game I get a hot dog okay that's not per se healthy food but also what in Rome life is not healthy right that's right I know when you get out alive all the good sword tongue quotes you got thank you so much no one gets out alive no one gets out alive it's true only two things in life are guaranteed death taxes well some people don't pay taxes dad looking at you dad are you there answer me dad so but when you're at a barbecue there's hamburgers and hot dogs I try and pick like I'll go either team hot dog or team cheeseburger does it depend on who's making them no I don't discriminate hot dogs a hot dog okay I can't leave I'm saying this on camera I've never had a bad hot dog you mean either I mean it's a hard one to mess up yeah you can mess it up you ever had a Colombian hot dog actually you know what I have had a bad hot dog what made that bro my dad when I was like a dad made it okay no when I was like a teenager my dad was like oh we're going to a Colombian burger joint and I don't know if you've ever gone to like the Jackson Heights area of Queens it's like little Columbia okay and they gave me a hamburger cheeseburger and a hot dog that had like I couldn't even tell you what was on it it was like it was wetter than like if you would just take it out from underwater the hot dog yeah and it was bad I couldn't eat it I got sick from it it was that bad I think it was like raw ham on there oh that's a weird choice which like I love it but that's not the hot dogs for it's the it's a person ingredients it's a person who cook additional a kuchama kuchama good right what's that what's our next question before we keep going down a well I have to say the worst hot dog I ever had now that I think about it is in Russian culture I came to America now six my parents would make me a hot dog cheap food protein it would be called sasiska sasiska sasiska sasiska sasiska she would boil it oh but a boiled hot dog is good as a oh you got a grill though it just wasn't great my dad would microwave him and put it on my eggs like eggs put it on it and hot dogs eggs and hot dogs is what I would have as my immigrant meal that's what that's where I used to have as a young as a young lad too what's your background uh my father's Columbia and my mom is Greek Egyptian okay so but my mom which culture you think led that hot dog egg experiment the father let's make that abundantly clear my mom was like trying to like eat healthy and like had fruit and stuff in the house wow chips you remember those chips no you don't remember do you remember wow chips those like healthy chips they were the ones they were like healthy corn chips but they were like they had something in them that made people shit their pants I don't know if my mom shitter pants but my dad was the one that'd be like you know for breakfast here's a fucking lollipop and eggs and hot dogs which is not a healthy breakfast right there you well based on the new food pyramid or upside down food pyramid that's right yes yes my my uh my fiancee has a masters in public health so I've gotten the whole the food pyramid is definitely a sore spot yeah she's like in in won't weigh what she needs well she's like just very she's like this is completely insane like everything that they're doing like everything's upside down or whatever but um or like there should be like more veggies or something in there I forget the exact well all those things are right yeah but the wildest thing is they're attacking the food pyramid that we haven't used in like 20 years yeah can you imagine if I go and I start fact checking from when they were plague doctors and being like I can't believe doctors did this stupid yeah well yeah they didn't know they didn't have microscopes yeah and uh also that was another thing too I feel like the food pyramid was just like something that was on the wall in one room yeah but no one talked about it yeah I mean we talked about it was 20 years ago so we learned we got better and then they go remember that thing they did yeah 20 years ago we don't do that anymore we learn from it we got better so what about the uh the plate what they had the healthy plate yeah that was the replacement for the food pyramid right and it was a good plate yeah fruits vegetables that's an easier way to kind of figure out like how you're supposed to eat but there were no hot dogs on this plate there was definitely not a hot dog yeah unfortunately there were no hot dogs I mean can you imagine to protein I'm sure if you have enough of that I mean it's ultra-process meat and ultra-process meat if you consume enough of it it does raise your risk of certain condition I just I want to say you're you're throwing around the ultra-process like it's a bad thing oh it is I know well for your colon listen man that's my colonel shit past my friend that ship is sailed that ship has sailed okay what do we got next then um considering that you were so curious about these things would you like to go to male nipples or piss what would you like to do stop can you stop this just give us a question okay not me Frankie and no I often hold my p to the point my stomach hurts why does it make my stomach hurt okay that wasn't using that one you can't that's fair that is fair why do you do why do you hold it I'm on a long car ride or I don't even know like a fun game I mean sometimes I like to I've said this before sometimes I like to like wait until like I hacked like I'm about to piss to go pee which I've been told is probably a bad thing to do I feel like you can feel that uh you feel that's bad yeah yeah yeah but but I don't like I'll be what was even the question I don't I don't know what was the question why am I holding so if like if someone were to hold in like their piss why does their stomach try to hurt um related nerves in the same area but really it's it's lower abdominal super pubic discomfort that you're having super don't my super super super super super super super super you don't have a super pubic you don't know about my super nuts let's go regular average pubic so it's just like discomfort in the area is going to affect every yeah and the longer urine sits in the bladder the more static it is meaning it's not moving around the more likely is to develop a stone the more likely to develop an infection so you

Yeah. I don't know why I have necessity. Yeah, it's not. And apparently it's, wait, it doesn't, no, it doesn't hydrate you at all. No. Oh, well, that comes to dehydrate you worse. That completely ruins my, because it's all the toxins that you're getting out of your body that you're re-adjusting. No, toxins. Thank you. Thank God. I mean, the general concept, right? Nope. It's waste, but not toxins. So what is the argument? He's saying it does, yeah, and it just does it. And you're saying it dehydrates you? It's not dehydrates you. It does not hydrate you. It's not a, it's not a replace for drinking water. And then there's people that think like it gives them some sort of nutrient that they're missing. They're like, oh, it has electrolytes. I'm like, so do food. Yeah. So do, if you really love electrolytes, take the supplement. Yeah. Yeah. You don't need to drink the urine. Look in the camera and tell Bear Girl, she's an idiot. I did a whole reaction video to this thing, calling him out. So I feel bad. And he does things that I can never do. So I can't call him an idiot. Of course. Like, drink his piss. And him and my dog share the same name. So, well, you know, hear some crazy, his name's not there. No way. No dog like Arnold. Look at Bear Girl's name. And my name, to be fair, if my name was Arnold, I'm changing it to bear. I mean, if you're a guy that goes out and like lives with bears, and I think you can call yourself, I don't think he lives with bears. Well, you know, he's like around. He does wild stuff. He does do crazy stuff. I can't sit here. I'm watching through a loan. Have you ever seen that show? Oh, yes. It's good show. I think we didn't react to that, too. Man, we do a lot of things. You know, making an afraid alone, making an afraid is crazy. Yeah. I don't know how. I don't know how people do that because I would be afraid of being naked and then afraid of, yeah, the bugs. Forget the bugs. That's why I was like, it's natural. Like bugs are natural. They'll eat your super pubic area. Thank you so much. I appreciate you referencing my super pubic. His name was Edward Edward was I said was. I didn't mean that. Yeah. Yeah. Well, he changed it. Yeah. Well, did he legally? Edward Michael Edward Michael grills. Wait, is Guy Fiery's real name guy? I actually think so. I think that is a real name. That's cool. Imagine it was the Edward. I just get a baby and be like, I mean, like I delivered babies if I walked in. You delivered babies? Yeah. Dude, that's crazy. I bring the baby and I say, what's the baby saying? They go, bear. I go question. Yeah. No, you'd be like, it's pretty sick. What's the coolest baby name that you've helped? I don't know. They're not cool. Come on. They're standard. They're standard. They're names. I hear him. You forget them. Frank, Mike, Joe, and that's patient privacy. I can't tell you. I mean, you can break hippo right now. Yeah. Yeah, you got me honestly. Yeah, you got me. I don't want to get. So you've delivered babies as well. Yeah, I think I delivered 38 babies 30 people log during residency. Do you think have any of those babies like gotten old to the point where they're just like, you delivered me? I love them. Yeah, they're my patients though. Family medicine, baby. It's beautiful. Deliver the baby. Take care of the baby. Take care of the grandparents of the baby. Everybody. That is such an insane. It's an amazing job. It's such a crazy. And they're just like, yo, and one of the lowest paying specialties, which we should change. Yeah, what the fuck, doctors? It's the doctors. They're all building it. It's the hospital. And that's right. It's the privately owned hospitals that are to blame. Explain someone right now. It's very cruel. It's very cruel. It's the blame. It's very cruel. My question was going to be and I guess you're not going to be able to answer this because you've already debunked that urine is good to drink. I was going to ask that if you were to let it, can I throw something in real quick? Of course. A famous celebrity the other day messaged me asking me if she should drink her own urine because her friend was doing it. Can I blow up her spot? I would love to break HIPAA right now. Well, no, it wasn't, if it wasn't an official patient consultation. I love that. I mean, I don't want you to call them out, but it's an exclusive first time saying this on air. Mariah Carey. Kristen Bell, I can't believe. Oh, what? You really consider drinking urine. That is insane. Can't drink, can't drink it. You said no. I said no. I did it respectfully, of course. But then it turned out one of her castmates on her show was actually drinking her into thinking she was drinking urine by creating drinks that looked like urine. So much so that she reached out. That's a great prank. That's a really good prank that one of us is going to try. Yeah, very close. Well, it got her so much that she's like, let me let me ask the doctor right now on social media. That is honestly that's that's a level of pranking that like it just gets into their psyche and they're just like, I kind of need to do that. Well, it puts life into perspective for me because she can reach out at her disposal. Ivy League physicians, all these people that run departments, she goes, no, let me ask the YouTube dude. That's nice. So that's where I fall it. You're probably more trusted than most like medical professional. I would hope so. You have the most, I mean, I don't know, but I feel like the access that you have through social media is like, that's what makes that true. I think I hope so. Well, I also aim to be as transparent as possible. So people know why I'm recommending things. Yeah. As opposed to just being like the doctor you had, that was like screw you. Sorry. Yeah, I was getting screwed by the doctor. Yeah. Well, that's break in half of for sure. Can't have that. Now I know where the infection came from. But also, I just want to like just give you like the like you still work in a hospital. Oh, yeah. Half the week is hospital life, which is training residents. So when they see patients, they need to present the patient to me if they need help with the procedure. It's complicated. I'll go in with them. And then I also see my own patients. And any of your patients never be like, wait a second. All the time. Really? Yeah. It happens now more than ever because YouTube is so prevalent. Yeah. Yeah. But it's only been a positive, largely. That's good. Yeah. I went to the hospital once and it was that same hospital visit. And they said, like, listen, we need to treat you for possible sepsis. We need you to undress. And I was this is mold that you've been septic multiple times. My guy. What are you doing? That's why I'm talking hot dogs don't mean that they use me. I am you know compromised. Oh, yeah. Oh, I got it all. No, I don't know. He's going for the record. But like they said, like, we need to you need to like get in the in the gown in the robe. And I was in such bad situation that they were like, do you want help getting undressed? And I was like, sure. And they got me in the robe. And the guy goes, by the way, huge fan. And then he walked out the room. I was like, yeah, this guy just saw my infected weiner like bodies. No, don't do that. No, I mean, we know it's not infected. That's I mean, you were leading us right there. What? I mean, I feel like me is an infected individual. That's what I meant to say. In fact, we understand different man. It weird times. I've gotten complimented before on my content at the yard. Oh, I mean, that's crazy. I think that happened to me. I was going to say if anything that's normal. Is that being like, like your stuff, like your work. Ton of followers. A doctor saw my penis recently. So I was, but that didn't happen to me. Yeah. So he wasn't like, saw my penis was like, big fan, because that would have more fun. I'd be like, all right. Yeah, one free penis conversation. Feel free to pass. Yeah. What was the feedback? Bad penis. You said bad penis. No, he was still good. He went, he went, oh my god. And then he just, no, I went to the dermatologist and he just got like a quick, like a, like a, yeah. And he said everything was all good. But I don't know what you're talking about. Sick. Was he sick about the new cycle? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Everything's all good out there in here though. Kind of rough. Yeah. I don't know how it was. How I, you know, it also wasn't my best. It wasn't a good time. I wasn't expecting it to happen. Bad, bad dick day is what the difference thing. And I was like, you know, it's a doctor's office. It's called the lights, you know, the lights. I don't know how that. Whatever you need to say. Yeah. I'm glad someone is calling him out on him. I'm not saying whatever. I appreciate it. Normally it's just me having to call him out on his nonsense. I try not to use words like good or bad. I try and describe what I'm looking at. Great. Awesome. No, those are also not shitty. Yeah. Everything looks normal. But isn't normal subjective? It's actually objective. Oh, in the medical sense. Well, that's what I'm here for grammar. So we have the subjective portion of the exam, which is you tell me everything that's going on. Yeah. So you telling me
It's normal is subjective me looking at it and writing that it's normal. That's that's objective. Yeah, don't cut him off Yes No, but I get what you're saying like normal the sense of like what the body should be doing in this situation is normal sure Over there. I just want to make a note here that the bear grills drinking like Frankie curious about drinking his own pee is not on here I'm the official list. Yeah, that's his heart. Yeah, no, I did send that over It must have been oh, maybe I deleted that question when they got scrubbed because what I was gonna ask is if you if it's sterile And you can drink it in theory can you age it like wine and it would be tastier. Oh That sounds so horrific I wouldn't do it. I'm just asking I would put that beneath well milk Age yours. Oh, that's a good question. So would are you more likely to drink raw milk or or 10-day old piss? Do you ever think you'd be sitting in this room? Entering these questions when you went through out of the school. Yeah, we're gonna get a long email of cutlery Why hey guys remember that I Pissed raw milk The the raw milk thing I think is so you're just saying why do you think they're Almost allowed to sell it I guess They're not in some places But then they say it's for animal consumption and not for humans and they bypass the rules Much in the way that they sell peptides these days. I'm sure you guys have heard of peptides. Yeah, of course They're not really allowed to sell peptides, but they sell them for research purposes only So it's just these little polls. It's a loophole I think don't isn't like women's breast milk the same way like What I'm cutting that out of the episode and just replaying it a thousand times I heard that it's like legally you can't sell women's breast milk But like there's a market Talked a word for that there's a market there's a market for them. I sat surrounded by 20 anti-vaxxers and it was that as tough as this Conversation Oh Hey, look at you You're wearing three dresses Take your leather skirt off your neck. I think you'll cool off these are the deleted seeds from the Kid Rock Rfk video Yeah, oh my god. We just talked about that. That was crazy first of all cold plunge and jeans come on Yeah, that is My legs. I do my legs are more mostly scars. Is that this? No, no, no I was elsewhere, baby No, no, I one time on an episode said that like I had to get my leg like shaved or or something and I saw like I was like oh my god. I have so many scars on my leg from what just like like hitting it against you know like sports Hitting it against something and like it just heals. You did like a kickboxing. I never did kickboxing This is not even true. So I don't even know. Yeah, what sport soccer. Uh football. I played baseball you keep saying sports I don't require hitting your legs. I'm curious When he was young, were you a kicker football? No, but like when you get like turf burn that can leave scarring when you like when you People are like your legs are mostly scars. What are you justifying? I am referencing I one time had my my knee got cut open by an axe That happened that left scars. I got when you surgery. No, that was another one. Yeah I don't like how this episode is being targeted at me. I just got to say you're pulling the reins here, buddy You got any other questions that feel like they're not from Frank. I know that answer's no, but um Feel like they're not from Frank. Yeah, sure It is a What is more useless and appendix or male nipples and if you suck male nipples long enough, well, they lactate Okay, I did write the first half of the question. I don't know where that second half come from Yeah Well, we were on breast milk I'm glad that's where you went first. No, yeah, yeah, I'm trying to save this after you're warming me up to it I'll get to the other stuff first You gotta foreplay the nipples a little bit. Yeah, we can pull that right out the gallbladder I think there's another one. You can just pull out. We're good. Yeah, they have utility But they you can live without you can live with one kidney right But you prefer to have to it's nice to have a backup But an appendix and appendix. What does it actually do? Yeah, it functions as part of your immune system When you're young it also is a home for the microbiome some of the bacteria that naturally colonize your intestine So it does have some uses, but you can live without it So like at a certain but you said when you were young so at a certain point does it kind of like Stop pulling. It's not a life-sustaining organ We're tired. Can't live without without I guess you could live without both kidney because you get dialysis Can't live without a full liver can live without a full heart can live without a brain. I'm curious You have to answer when I count to three. Oh, man. Most important organ in the body that you believe One two three heart skin Or a brain. I was thinking one of you would say heart one you would say brain now. It's a beautiful brain. You went skin Well, you can't what's the biggest organ that question? I mean like everything is held together by your skin It's probably held together by your fascia, but oh fascia. Yeah The the organ that is least talked about what is it? It's everywhere. Oh, it holds you together Like if you've ever done a dissection in anatomy lab You'll see that there's a lot of weird connective tissue like what is that that's fascia? Huh of the plantar variety of the full body variety Plantar fascia Um, my my actual answer was brain. Let's forget that I said skin. Okay. Yeah. So why brain? Uh controls everything. Why heart? I mean if it stops we're done But you can live with an artificial heart can't live with an artificial brain. What's an artificial heart? How long can you live with artificial heart? What is an artificial heart? This is this is you I'm not helping this set up. You're in the hot seat. Uh, I don't know Not a full life But you we're getting there longer longer than you can with it without an artificial like you can't live without an artificial brain for a second Well, uh if you give some more no you can't So I'm right. Yeah What was it brain? I'm on a roll. Do you think brain is more important? You could have brain death And still have heart and lung function by having an ventilator keep you alive. Um, however If you lose a full brain you lose the ability to even have the heart pumps I always remember the story like learning about Indian psychology of like Phineas gauge Yeah, and I thought that was like great because you hear about like any sort of like trauma to the brain You think like as a kid. It's just like oh, it's instant. This guy got a fucking like whole rod Continue to live. Yeah. Do you do you think there's any part of the body organ or just whatever part that eventually will be born without like we're just not using Man see this is a great question. I'm not smart. I'll answer that question. Fair enough. We got him with one We gotta go down. I wrote that one Got him with one. He's just not going to say something that he doesn't know for sure. No, of course Well, this is why this is why you're trusted is because in that situation He was going to happen with our mouths because our mouths are getting smaller Is that true? Well, that's why all everyone's mullers are impacted now. What about like like but I'm not a dentist. I'm speaking outside of what about my pinky toe What about it balance point? Oh, you're pinky toe though pinky and big toe Yeah, but like mine is like sideways. You never saw a heartbreak kid I did see heartbreak it. Remember he was telling her the lie about hanging out with a guy golf and he only had the I don't remember that well. Yeah, I like movies. He only had the outside. Yeah, he's like it allowed him to maintain the swing We play the clips. I don't Know it's fine. No, finally you look like an idiot for once It's a good movie underrated first movie. I ever got kicked out of What heartbreak kid? No heartbreak kid. I tried to go watch heartbreak kid with my like high school girlfriend And they were like you're not watching this and they kicked me out because I was 13. Oh, so you tried to sneak it. Oh, yeah, you ever sneak it? Is that movie? You're breaking the wall dog You would you consider yourself a bad boy criminal? I've definitely been over the speed limit by a couple of miles an hour So I gotta admit to that. I've seen the car I would do to be honest Uh, I feel like I must have overstayed and watched two movies. Yeah, that's a big one You got to hide a little fifth grade or something. I don't think it even hit it was just like middle of the day And they're like no one's here. We don't care. Yeah, exactly. I'm gonna ask you a series of questions That's what the podcast is These are two different answers. What's your favorite movie of all time and what's the best movie of all time My favorite movie of all time is not one people love. That's okay mine too man on fire That's good movie. Oh, okay. I think it's so underrated Denzel oh, yeah, Dakota fanning A lot of celebrity appearances mark Anthony Music is phenomenal stories great. I need to watch Scott directing. I mean it was
Good stuff. What was your answer the mask? You know that I'm not a gym carry. Oh, why what happened? I don't know. I just said that with like hate and you're not when I came to America Like he was really popular and I was just like, uh, it was okay. Oh, okay. What is all mighty was okay? Liar liar was kind of cool. He loves the mask, and I watched it in within the last two years, and it sucks It doesn't it is so good. It doesn't hold it. It's so good All right now, but what if you were in like a, you know, like bar room conversation with your buddies What do you think would you argue is the best movie of all time? It's so hard to pick one. I have a list, but I Really I find myself coming back to goodwill hunting a lot really I watched that recently again. It's so good. Like Shaw shank. Shaw shank. Good fellow. Good fellows. I've rewatched a million times. Oh, yeah Yeah, I'm like almost sick of it now. Yeah, but you know what's sick?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was Did you leave her baggy up review for that one? Yeah the attacks on me today. I'm just gonna throw this out there are out of control No, no, no, I mean I would if I wake up. No, no, I'm writing and I get I asked there was so it was high school sports I my knee was Destroyed and they said like hey you can wake up during the surgery if you want will give you an epidural Oh, yeah, oh wow, and I was like it was paid for by the friggin like public school system So I was just like fuck it. Yeah, okay, whatever so you woke up and I woke up and I woke up pain free Yes, yes, yes, yes, I woke up and there was like cold play was going and people were like yeah surgeon's jam What's your jam music? I know you're not a surgeon. I'm saying like what is your jam white noise We play white noise so the other patients in the other rooms can't hear the conversation You know what your jam music is Doug. Um, I don't know like top 50 stuff. Nothing nothing special. I'm an M I just listened to kill shot this morning. I don't know why that why it hit my tech talk to you kill shot Yeah, that is crazy. Okay. What do you hear what? No, I just like so long ago. It's like five years ago. What is it? I'm making it sound like kill shot came out in the 70s and I'm like no, I said beetles you give me props But I said kill shot you go that long ago. Well, no, not the length. It was the song. It feels like random I can tell like a top 50 song like that like he loves like fucking pit bull or flow right He does my dad likes pit bull. Your dad likes pit bull. Yeah, we're learning about the sky in real time You know Joey loves to point out people's lack of you know current music. No, what are you guys like no? Joe is going to listen to like he'll be like as a certain Drake who would you marry you on? One two three one two three I was I can't I don't know enough about it. I will say though that like of the music I've heard I like more Kendrick Lamar's up that I do Drake stuff who's hotter mad Damon or Brad Pitt one two three mad Damn it hotter. I mean you like mad Damon. Oh, I don't know. I think mad Damon Brad Pitt. There's some stuff I just watched a he's hot. What are we gonna do? I mean, I'm not excusing whatever. I don't even know what you're talking about You know what's funny you guys didn't even catch that I reference heartbreak hit again Why do you I haven't seen it? I remember heartbreak hit that well. I remember like three scenes this whole episode is heartbreak hit and steps is over here I brought it up once Man, what else we got on the docket. I have a question with the craze of you know like all these medical shows like Which one would you say is the most accurate the pit? Yeah, the pit is so good 10 out of 10. I heard it just limited notes I have one note. I wish they did chest compressions a little better How are you supposed to do a proper chest compression push hard and fast center the chest two inches deep about a hundred beats per minute You know, it's two inches deep. Well that means he does great CPR. You're nation of lifesavers That's the office I'm reacting to that one too. That's such a good such a good clip. Is it true that like with chest compressions? There could be like injuries with that. Yeah, but the person's dead If you don't do it. No, no, they're dead. Oh, that's when they get you're doing chest compressions because the heart has stopped So they're dead right and you're squeezing the heart by pushing the chest two inches deep Which you were very accustomed to do and this is crazy You said it. He said it. He tapped him up. Yeah, he did Not because of the truth because of the joke the gap is the ultimate like sign of yes, it's too you co-signed him right now I forgot what's going with this But the heart is already stopped. Oh, yeah, the heart is stopped. So you're squeezing the heart to circulate the blood that still has some residual oxygen in it and You're trying to buy time for EMT. So right All right aren't there stories though of people doing chest compressions and like cracking? Yeah, yeah, again, if you're doing that in order to keep that person's brain alive, that's worth it You trade a rib for brain. You said brains the most important. Yeah, I would make that trade Alright, Marilyn Manson relax my dad was a fireman and I think he was like a mess for a bit, but there was one time he was on a Tennis court and a guy like had a heart attack or something and he was doing like Either chest compressions while the person's alive like talking no, no, no They like went down and they were like I Forget the story, but he had to give him CPR and he's like and I was given this guy CPR and then he just threw up in his mouth That's a bad one. I don't know what has to happen for that. Well, you just you set it up saying he had a heart attack heart attack does not require a CPR Yeah, so my dad could have just had the character cardiac arrest We got a lot of daddy issues on this side of the set. I don't know Well, I've seen videos on social media someone's like a little bit out of it and they're giving them CPR I'm like no, no, if they're out of it, that means their heart is still beating because they're moving Right, so you don't want to squeeze their chest when they're heart beating what? Um, I also like I don't know if this is true, but I like saw something online that now with like CPR like the breathing into the mouth Is not a thing yeah, so people used to not do CPR for people because they were worried all I have to do mouth to mouth So we said forget mouth to mouth the most important thing is pushing hard fast in center chest after you call for help And that means either you're calling for help or you're saying you pink neon pink scrubs You call 911 and you have to say yes, and then I start to just compression right what was we do that? We do the rescue breaths in situations when a person has been down for a long period of time So if someone drowned for example, and you find them odds are they don't have residual Oxygen in their blood so you need to give them rescue breaths and then start pushing hard and fast But if someone just collapsed, they still have oxygen in their blood blood vessels so you can Start pushing right one more time do that one more time. Oh, and this isn't even good for sorry. This is good All right, all right, so this isn't a tricep extension. All right, so lock them out lock them out because you want to use your body weight over them So lock them out like this that's hyper So like this do that again That's a prettier that's a hyper extended. Yeah, what's going on? I have many skills you don't know about your thumb to your No, I wife can, but I get pretty close. I'll be careful. All right good I get pretty close. We're just checking Well, it could predispose you to having a condition and with him. Oh, you know, I got it Yeah, it's gonna be a long drive home for me Oh, Dr. Mike said I have a condition He referenced my steps What else we got why how many times have you had sepsis just to clear I've never it for the record is septic Let me make that abundantly clear. I have been treated for I'm getting pretty close got it. Okay We'll talk off airs. You ever been septic? What are the requirements? Basically there's sir's criteria plus an infection source Mm-hmm. Oh, so that's yeah you you many times though What the fuck are you? Speaking we can pop up the source here. Yeah speaking of all Frankie's trips to the sepsis hospital here you're Frankie You're mentioning that hospitals have the same smell you're saying. Yes. Oh all hospitals I've been to smell exactly the same and all casinos. I've been to smell exactly the same Are you sure it's just you're not smelling yourself because it seems like everywhere you go it smells the same Let me finish the question. That's a great Yeah, that's probably it. I need to know like every time I go here it smells the same Well, no my question was going to be seriously do hospitals like My casinos put like stuff through the vents in order to like so it's like I don't know how like the fancy hotels have their own unique sense Yes do hospitals have like a specific air filtration system that like makes it so it smells a certain way We do have hepa filters because for infection control purposes We keep it low humidity specifically because it decreases infection We don't pump scent though That's not what you say like essentially smelling super clean. Yeah clean. Yeah, or I guess it's like a little like a rubbery There's a little rubber. Yeah smells like a lot of equipment. It smells like the gloves. Yeah, what's with the paper? Why the paper paper is horrible on the on the on the they take the sheet disposable but like can
It's just cuz do you want to sit in someone else's butt group? No, no, no, go go go What goes on your No, I don't have no group. Whatever. I'm saying let's upgrade to what to to a comfort more UV light What what about it? Are you just saying words now? Yes? Oh, milk A whole milk bath that you can sit in that's been homogenized the Never mind. I know the answer to that question. I was gonna say there's like a little box. So basically what I'm smelling is What I'm smelling is just a combination of like cleaner air. Yeah, I believe you're smelling a lot of disinfectants as well. We're cleaning things a lot. Yeah Oh, that's definitely do they have have any hospitals or doctors offices come up with like disinfecting like Grenades so like they can just close the door to it off like a room and they throw something in and then it goes off and and like Right, yes Just I mean this might be a good business idea. All right. If you're looking to invest clean grenades But like Nate your apartment Before this saw a TikTok video where someone did that transition where they throw the grenade in the room got clean He goes I want that grenade like if I were to take two light saw cans and just stab them with knives and then throw them into a room You'd go to jail Like I'm not saying like where there are patients. I'm saying like you know like that room over there and I close it off Would it do a good job cleaning that room? I can't answer that question. I have never ran that experiment So I have a question. So you know how restaurants have people show up from the health department and they like check to make sure Everyone's doing the thing right happen in house. Absolutely. How often very often and you do surprise visits good old Jacob. I say good. What's it?

How often are they coming? Are you getting? Your expiration dates generally restocked like everything is checked. Oh, you have a water bottle nursing station. That's on open Why yeah, so they're really straight people freak out and who sets those standards this hospital accreditation system and they and it's Based on if the if the hospital takes money from the federal government because then they have to follow the federal government's rules Right for hospital medics do have is it like typical for a hospital to like yet shut down Typical no, but they definitely have to do make goods and then they come back and check and make sure that so Don't give them like this needs to be rectified in a week and then we'll be back I've like worked in a p3a before when the house department shows up at p3a hospital Wait, wait So when but that day when they they're if they get a heads up like a half an hour like they're going to be a half an hour That's like all of a sudden we got to start wearing like gloves and hair nets or whatever would you typically don't they surprise us Okay, it's like random drug testing for athletes All right, they just knock on your door. They just knock on your door. I mean But and then everyone freaks actually goes here get the food out of here Yeah, well that used to happen to when I worked at Target like they like food like specific food inspectors would come because a lot of the targets Had like a pizza hot or starbucks in it and like they would just walk in the door and be like we're gonna check Yeah, and I'm sure they send also surprise inspectors to some places, right? I don't know for hospitals. Oh just like just like as a regular consumer. Oh, yeah That'll be better. I'd be so good. Yeah trouble for that. I don't know. They should be not you though not me. That's right I can't get a trouble damn right, but they do make coatings for equipment in the hospital better anti-bacterial coatings Where's any like like the keyboard and the mice are so you can't get like a gaming mouse and bring it into the I mean you could do it if you want, but you could get in trouble probably But it's cool that they have those coatings. There's some coatings that like bacteria don't like living on That they call them bacteriostatic that the bacteria can't multiply on what is the reason why we don't use that Expensive doesn't work with some materials etc. Mm-hmm.

I think um, I like this one What's something most people do every day that will have a negative effect on them in the future that maybe they don't know? Can I guess sure No, no, this is great. It's like I get to fact check live Creamer in their coffee. I hear that a lot of people do it thinking there's nothing to it, but it carries a lot you think that's the worst habit I think it's a bad one. I didn't say worse. That's what the question is no the question was what's a bad thing It could be anything though. I'm gonna I'm not gonna reread the question. Yeah, you said I'm gonna agree with him Go ahead It's probably something to do with sleep the fact that we don't respect sleep That eight hours is like seven to nine. Yeah, it's a good number 10 for as an adult Children's different older people to older people don't need as much Really after 65 is that why they're always because they're sleeping for like an hour and a half in the middle of the day That's why no, I just went to I just took a flight home at six a.m So I could beat the storm that we just had and I was like everyone in here is old Like they're up at this time. Yeah, it was like a very early flight I would never like there was no one really there that was Like around my age like everyone is like 65. I mean when you don't sleep well your body has to Counter-act this fatigue that you're feeling so you go into fighter flight mode and when you're in this fighter flight mode You're not healing well. You're not digesting well. You're not repairing well and as a result your blood pressure is higher Your hormone shifts are generally unhealthy for that day your food choices are not healthy. You're putting on weight So it's like impacting your mental health your physical health all around so sleep We need to make love to our sleep And how do you if someone has trouble sleeping? How would you suggest that they sleep better? It takes a visit with someone like me who will try and figure out what's the issue because some people have trouble falling asleep Which is one issue and you could have people who can't stay asleep the wake up at 2 a.m I can't go back to sleep. Those are two different issues and have different treatments for both In general, what I'm seeing people struggle with the most is their sleep hygiene Their ability to do good things to help them fall asleep well So exposing themselves to early morning light making sure their bedroom is really dark cool There's things like not looking at your phone right before bed exposing yourself to blue light Can hurt your ability to fall asleep So there's all of these things that need to be taken into account that most people brush off and like just give me a pill And the pill is not a solution is the magnesium things like a overstated. Oh, yeah, so it's not really like a huge yeah I wish it was I What about how easy would that make my life here is your thing and melatonin is tricky because melatonin is good Where I use it the most probably is for jet lag resetting someone's circadian cycle So we'll say you were in one time zone and now you're coming back to this one and you want to reset Taking melatonin now before bedtime could be totally reasonable to reset But people are taking it every single day so they're becoming reliant on
on it, which is not good. And second, they're also taking huge doses. There's people taking like 10 milligrams, 20 milligrams, where you're really supposed to use like one, two, maybe three, people are going way too far on it. - I've done it five. - I think one time. - I think one time is-- - Yeah, I don't know. - I don't know. - You know what I'm saying? It's not like that. - For the July, you want to rip them off and fucking be my guest. - Not medical advice that I share. - Hold on. This is what he does. - Hold on. - That's a great idea. A line of hot dogs that have trace amounts of melatonin in them, so you can have a pre-bed dog. - Why is someone looking at me? (laughing) You want to eat a hot dog? - I was hoping you have like a silence, but I mean-- - I do hear that. - And it's sharkish chocolate. - And we'll call it sleepy dogs. - Oh, that was the camera. - Oh wow, that was a good idea. - I mean, in theory, you can just put melatonin in anything. - I don't think that's true. - I think it's regulated. - I love in theory. Like that's how that saves you. Also eating a hot dog for a bed wild mode. - I don't do that. Let's make that a bundle. - You're not supposed to eat how many hours before bed. - That's not a rule. - It's not a rule, really. - Ideally, if you're struggling with reflux, maybe don't eat two hours before bed time bed. - What do you, so the, the blue light one is an actual question because like, we like recently saw something that there's like this new thing where it's called like-- - Blue light glasses. - No, not just blue light glasses, but like, it's like sleep revenge or something, and it's like people are like trying to like stay up later because during the day, they don't get enough time. Like I have young kids, so like me and my wife, we try to stay up as, not as late as we can, but a little later because that's the only alone time that we get during the day. So I'll stay up a little later, which she'll go to sleep and I'll like, you know, scroll like the news or something on your phone. (laughing) - I do. I mean, it's broken. When I say the news, it's-- - You're looking at comic books. - Yeah. - It's, it's news on the new Disney+ Power Ranger show. - We said me and my wife have some time together. I was like, oh, that's so romantic. - I mean, we do. - And he's like, no, no, no, we get the hell away from each other. - No, no, no, no, no, no. We'll like watch something together. We'll talk, whatever. But I'm saying like, she'll go to sleep before me and then I'll scroll the news. - Yeah, yes, the news, the news. How long before bed do you think is like blue light a bad thing? - I would get rid of it an hour before. - An hour, okay. - That's like conservative because you want to A, limit the blue light exposure because that's placed some role because you can shift some settings in your phone to decrease blue light anyway. But the more important thing is when you're looking at the news because you're clearly a consumer. - Power Rangers watches. - You're looking at your friends what they're up to, what your ex-partners are up to on social media. That is not contributing to a good night's sleep. That's making you more anxious. - So like people that, like, I really, like, and good. (laughing) It really is like, I stay off social media because I don't like, I try to stay away from social media as much as I can. - How do you get your news when you scroll through the news? - It's not really news. It's like entertainment stuff. - What website or what app? - It depends. So like, I open Google Chrome and at the bottom it'll have like a series of suggested things. Like, here are the top Pokemon cards of this new release. Like, here's like the news on. - Ah, getting stuff. - You know, they're about to go to war. You're talking about Pokemon cards, really. Never mind, stay on the phone. - It sounds like you have the perfect sleep with you. (laughing) - They were gonna get rid of Bulbasaur. - Bulbasaur, don't ever disrespect the number one Pokemon. - Aw, shit. - Do people scroll on Google Chrome? Is that a thing? - I do. (laughing) - Look, I'll show you what I did, look. - Is that a thing? - I'll show you exactly what I do. - Don't make it worse. - Look, I open Google. - Tell me the first news story. - Yeah. - Read it out loud. - Discover it. - MLB this show, the video game. - All right, John George, I can't say that. Tin building his clothes. - Ten best watches without a date window. - Oh, that's a good, let's hear that. - You wanna hear it in here, that one? - I mean, of course, Netflix sub is number one. - What? - I mean, Rolex sub is number one. (laughing) - It's like Netflix, he just leaped the next collab. - Yeah. - Protect color travel in '96. - Good choice. - But, you know, that is really what I'm scrolling because I try to stay off social media as much as I can, because-- - That's impressive. - I say I try. - Yeah. - But definitely before bed I do it, because I don't wanna freak myself out. I tend to be an overthinker with certain things. So like, if I do see like, hey, we're close to war, then I'm not gonna be able to sleep. - But when you see watches without a date window, you go, I get it. - It comes me down. - I'm gonna go sleep and think about what I'm doing. - It comes, you know what I do? And tell me if you ever, if you do this, I do it. - I add things to my cart, and I just leave it there, and I go away. It's like, I'm just not gonna buy it. - You keep stuff in the cart. - I window shop online. - So you keep it in the cart as a way of giving yourself some time to see if you really need it the following day? - No, I'm not gonna buy it ever. - But you keep it in the cart. - So you're tricking the website. - Yeah. - What's that accomplishing? - Nothing, it's just something that I do. - Maybe they'll give you a discount. - They do do that. - Oh, I'm breaking this system here. I thought you were talking about watches. I was like, I don't even-- - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You're not putting anything to a cart. - It's happening. - It's a real, real like, it's like, I'm really hoping, it protects us, but you're like-- - Yeah, here's 30% off for St. Patrick's Day, on all green dials. (laughing) That's not happening. - Man, that would be sick. - That would be super cool. - I have a question. What do you think is the-- - The answer, by the way, to your question, was commitment issues, but go ahead. - What was the question? - Commitment issues. - That's why you're doing the cart. - Oh, I don't wanna make a diagnosis. - I mean, this is like a therapy session for us. - Yeah, this feels very good for me. - Us is one thing, but I will also say you didn't answer how useless male nipples are, and if they will lactate, once you suck on them enough. - They can lactate in certain medical conditions, hormonal imbalances, some medications, so. - But is it milk? - It's milk. - Okay. - Raw milk, baby! (laughing) - But is it milk? - It's just-- - And what's the use of them? It's just like the normal human blueprint. Inside the embryo, we're all the same. - And on the outside, too, we're all kind of similar. (laughing) - A lot of different, you're not gonna touch that. But what you think is like, the, like obviously you have a lot of knowledge about how to stay healthy and stay on top of those type of things, but what do you think is like, your most unhealthy habit? - My cholesterol is really high. I'm actually waiting for my results right now to see where I'm at. I'm nervous about it. - Why is it high? - Great question. - You're asking questions! - Because I'm eating hot dogs. - He's asking these personal questions. - I told you, transparency. - I eat a lot of hot dogs. My food choices have not been great. - What's your guilty pleasure food? - Besides hot dogs. (laughing) - Something that's high in saturated fat. I love cookies and cream milkshakes, but I haven't been having them. But I'll have, you know what it is? When I go to a restaurant, I get to wag you. And that's not good. - I mean, you know, that's me. - That's not good. I mean, I just, I'm doing it too often. - That's me, too. - You know how some celebrities or people that get some notoriety on social media, they make a buck and they go, "Oh my God, and they develop a drug problem?" - Sure. - Yeah. - That's me, but with wag you. - Hell yeah! - With, like, anything that has MP on the menu check, that's it. (laughing) - Two, two. - Crab legs. - I'll take three orders of them. - Are crab legs? - I said 20 hot dogs. - No, dude, I feel you. - 20 years, pretty solid. - I'll tell you this though, wouldn't it? - I did have the most expensive burger I've ever had in my life this weekend. - Where? - Kith Ivy. - Oh, and a food over there now? - Yeah, it looks like the club. - It's a members club. - I'm not a member. - I don't even know what that is. - It's like, it's not invited. - I know Kith. - They open like a membership club. It's like, a paddle over there. - Yeah. - It's like a paddle club. You know paddle? - A paddle or a padell? - Padell, I guess, yeah, I guess. - Like a paddle ball? - Yes, but no. - It's like pickle ball tennis and squash, how to baby. - Yeah. - Okay, you lost me. (laughing) - There's somehow following more in the medical club. - How much was the burger? - $64. - That's the most expensive burger you've ever had? - Where do you have a more expensive burger? - Where do you go? - Okay, without gold flakes on it. - I was just going to absurd. - I've never had nothing weird on it. - I've never had a more expensive burger. - I imagine it was going to be like 200 bucks. - I mean, where does the 200 bucks burger? - Where do you get it? - I'm sure you can find it somewhere. - I just had a burger. - What's that like four Charles burger? - That's expensive like that. - Yeah, the burger at four Charles is probably just like at a 40 bucks. - Really? - I just had red hook tab for the first time. Like the burger there. Apparently it's actually really good. - The burger. - Damn. - How much was it? - Good collection. - I think it was like 30 bucks. - That's why. (laughing) - How was the $64 burger? - It was pretty good. There were some kebabs on the side that were great. - Wasn't what I do though, right? - It was. - It was. (laughing) - It's the sick part. - It wasn't that A5. - It was a problem. - It wasn't A5. - It wasn't A5. - No. - Have you been to Japan? - No. - All right. - I would love to go. - If you guys go, can you take me? - Can't bring you to Japan? - Yeah, you can. - No, you're like a- - I'm huge in Japan. - I'm huge in Japan. - Six, three. - Yeah, you are. You're big physically speaking in Japan. Also, you're super pubes, too. (laughing) - We'll cut that out. (laughing) - What are we even talking about at this point? - I'll join. - Obviously. - I love sushi, so I love good sushi. - What's your go-to sushi? - Like, I was going to a place called sushi saki for the longest time on the Upper East Side. - I'm in order. - Like, are you going to my- - Oh, my cousin. - I trust the chef. - Have you been to Nas? - Nas? - Yeah, sushi Nas. - What is that? - It's, why is it feel like he made that up? [BLANK_AUDIO]
- No, he knows his restaurants. - It's a very nice restaurant. The chef is like, he's like a famous sushi chef or something, I don't know. I went once, it was really good. But it was very intimidating. - Really? - 'Cause it's like eight people, and then he's making it. And I was like-- - And he's judging you to make sure you're eating it correctly. - Dude, you scare the fuck out of me, because at one point he has like fresh scallops, and he's like, and it's like very quiet, and he's just making it, it's like, you know, you're watching the guy at work, it's amazing. And then he just takes the scallop, and he's just like, like right in front of me on the table, and I was like, oh, and then it moves. - 'Cause it's alive, isn't it? - Yeah, and I ate it. - Wow. - I feel like these days, you can just say A syllable, and it could be a sushi place in the city. - Yeah, they had much, 'cause there's a lot of sushi. - Did you watch Zero Dreams of Sushi? - No, I heard it's good, no, it's really good. - We went to a Japanese barbecue place in Texas ones. (laughs) We had, - That seems like where they went. - It was good one. - Food was good. - Food was solid. - Walk in, all white people. - Yeah, we were like, this was an interesting thing. - This doesn't feel right, because every person in there was white, and they were like speaking, speaking. They were trying to do like traditional like, when someone walks in, how they like, shout something in Japanese. - It's like when they have, what are those, when they cook for you, but they do a show? - Habachi? - Habachi, yeah. - Don't downplay Habachi, like you don't think it's hot. - No, but it's been co-opted. - Oh yeah, and now it's like, you know, kids name Brett that do it. - Yeah, exactly. - Habachi does not suck, by the way. - Habachi's incredible. - No, Habachi's great. I loved the little volcano. - Isn't it cool? - Yeah. - I one time went and got real drunk, and they let me go and do the volcano, and I put my hand on the thing, and went like that. - Burnt off me. - Wow. - My, what would make you-- - You shouldn't have done that. - Did you not hear the very drunk one that was the preamble to that story? - It was the first time he was sapsic. - Sapsic? - Can we stop talking about my borderline sepsis? - Do you dip sushi in soy sauce the correct way? - Are you supposed to dip the fish side, right? - I don't do it at all. - Oh, you don't? Oh, because you go to the fancy place where they brush it with a brush. - That's right. - Well, not even when I get sushi at home, I'll just like, eat it. - When you get sushi at home, you make it yourself? - No, no, like when I order it. - He doesn't use the soy sauce. I think it's what he says. - Yeah, yeah, I don't dip it. I just like, eat it. 'Cause I feel like soy sauce is such a powerful dish. - Yeah, it's so powerful that I'm like, I don't want to ruin the. - No, it's not. - Sometimes there's like a little sauce there and that isn't a little bit hot. - I'll throw like a little. A little bit. - Spicy mayo. - Yeah, yeah. - Where's that from? That's from somewhere. - A little where. I think he's talking about your tongue. Oh, my tongue. My tongue is from my mouth. (laughing) - Not for the sword. - Just like a little, like. - Like that? - Yeah, I mean, they have like a, you know, something. I'll be like, "Hard, are a little more sobby or like a ginger?" - Damn. Let's get back to the medical talk. - So, male nipples. - Male nipples. - They're not useless. - I mean, they have sensation for people enjoy them sexually sometimes. - How would you know? - You outright, he does, right? Thank you. I said that. - He comes in here and he's just like, "Oh, I'm going to take a picture." - Oh. - That's not what I, but it's not the sexual thing. It loves a play with his nipples. - No, that's crazy. - I mean, I'm not against it. I'm not approved, dude. You want to pull out my nipple, whatever. (laughing) - What is what it is? - I'm not, you know. - I know why you guys have such a big space. (laughing) - Hidden rooms. - Yeah, you know? - That's the nipple set over there. My office is up there. There's a lock on the door. And, do one more question? - One more. None of them are, all right, so after that. Okay, here we go. Can you actually, is this yours? Can you actually get sick from holding it apart? - I didn't write that. (laughing) - I did not write that. That was not me. - Have you gotten sick from holding it apart? - Stop looking at me. It wasn't me. I hate, hold on, you're just closer. - That's fair. I notably hate farts. I hate burps. I hate poop talk. - Oh, I can't burp. I have that thing. It's called, like, RC. - I don't know, I don't know. - RC cola. - I can't, I can't burp. - You haven't heard of that, you'll burp. - Oh, yeah. I can't burp, like it, it's something, like, very, it's the opposite of it often, rarely. Very rarely, it'll just kind of like, escape, and it'll kind of scare me, but I can't burp. And it's like-- - Very burps. - Yeah, it just kind of, like, it feels like I'm gonna throw up, I don't know where, and then I'm like, oh. - Interesting. So you're like a sensitive, the soft thing is? - Or something, there was something that I read online that people, because I saw this, like, TikTok, where someone was talking about it, and I was like, oh, this is the thing that I have. And then you can correct it with, like, Botox in a certain thing, so I think just like a muscle, it's like a muscular thing, I don't know. I'm just so muscular, that's what it is. - That's what it is. - You're so fucking ripped, he has a ripped throat. - My neck. - Look at my neck. - Look at his throat, it's like 16 and a half years. - Washboard has on his Adam's apple. - It's a thick neck. - It is a thick neck. - He doesn't have the ability to relax his throat. It's what they're saying. - Yeah. - You. - Hey. - Hey. - Remember when you asked me what's one thing that would phase out of the human body, based on survival of the fittest? - Probably not. - I think an overtite throat. - Yeah. - Yeah, you gotta be able to burst. - It's gonna get more loose as they go. - You gotta loosen your throat up. - Yeah. - What was the question that you asked about it? - Oh, you're farting. - If you get painful fart. - Oh, painful farting. - It's not gonna be comfortable, you might be bloated. First of all, farting is normal. - Yeah. - Let's put that out there. - Yeah. - 10 to 20 times a day. Totally great to fart. - More, that's normal. - That's normal. - What about those people that are like jarring their farts? We talked to someone once. That's like jarring. - Oh yeah, that was one of the jarring. - She was having like a pot of cabbage soup a day and then selling jarred farts. - Interesting. I'm not sure about that. You know you could absorb your fart and then breathe it out. Excuse me. - Oh god. - What? - That was the way I've never-- - Wait, what? - So you can like suck in through your butt and then the-- - How does that happen? - Your intestines are permeable to certain gases and those gases can be absorbed and then released by your lungs. - So you're farting in your own belly and your mouth? - Belly is not connected to the lung. You know how these they shouldn't bone, connected to the lung? Yeah, like the belly and the lung are separate. - Your belly is 30 or 30 years old. - Tommy? - Your tummy. - Your tummy is filled with a fart? - Wow. That is disgusting. - Well, the entire GI track is full of air. That's normal because when you swallow, you swallow some air always. And what's interesting is do you think what's inside your GI track is outside or inside your body? - Where's it? - Well, hold on. So now you're asking questions that you can't follow. - What's inside my body? - Yeah, is it inside-- is it technically-- the food you eat, is it inside your body? - Yeah. - Where else would it be? - Well, technically, like-- - Oh, it's like you-- - It's like you-- - Straight pipe. - Well, not straight pipe. - Right. - So like we're kind of like a straw. - Yeah. - Yeah. - So, hear me out. So then if you were to take someone and hold them like, ash over water, and like suck on their mouth long enough, will you get water through their mouth, like a straw? There's too many sphinthers preventing that. - I don't know what you're talking about. - Yeah. - No, I'm like, the email that I'm going to get is just going to be pages and pages. - Do you hear that one? - Yeah. - Put that one down. - Um, would that go down as one of the worst questions you've ever heard? - I mean, there's-- - I think we can't like the top 10, all 10. - All 10 have been-- - It's definitely-- - It's definitely out there. That was raw. - Wait, what do you-- - But I probably wouldn't smell. - But what do you-- - You didn't answer my question. - Sorry. - Your question is-- - No, I didn't answer your question. So there's too many sphinthers that prevent that from happening. - The-- - How many sphinthers are a normal person has? - A lot. - Do they have tons of things? - I don't know. - I thought there was only one sphinther. - Where? - The sphinther. - No, there's the pyloric sphinther. I mean, there's other sphinthers. - See, I didn't know this. Thank you. See, what a dumb question. We learned from it. - Yeah. - This is-- - Yeah. - What you're saying, it's like, it's outside. What do you mean by that? - Well, because, like, again, it's like there's a hole going through your body that connect to exits. - So, like-- - The space around is the body. - Is what's inside the body, like, inside the blood vessels, inside the fascia? And if there's a hole going through all of it, like a straw, it's like insane for me to think about it. - Yeah. - Think about it, think about it simply from, like, a worm perspective, a worm eats, and then it just has, like, a thing that goes through it. - Yeah. - That's easier to picture than our complicated system. - That's so-- - Honestly, I never even occurred to me, and that's, like, there's a Frank-- - Shut up. (laughter) - Because you asked one of the dumbest things I've ever heard in my entire life. (laughter) - I guess this is it. - No, I know. - I can't believe that. - For this. (laughter) - If you help someone else, I know. - What are you talking about? - I'm going to get an email from my hospital administrator that's like, "Dr. Mike, you "or pose this question about sucking water through the human body." - Oh, that's actually a good question. Is any of your content made, any people that you've worked with, or your superiors, like, have to tell you, like, listen. - No. It's actually super supportive, so it's nice. - What's going to put that-- - I mean, after this-- - What are you going to see? - What they say. Oh, my God, dude. - Oh, yeah. - This is really not good. - Yeah, can you imagine your breath parts? - Yeah. - No, that's just hard. - Yeah. - But for it's not bad because of the sulfur components, and that's not one that you regularly will breathe out. - Is there methane in there? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - For methane producers. - So you could die from it. - Oh. - With enough of it. - Of what?
like in a small room a lot of methane no is it true and I don't know if you would have the answer to this but like the ozone is potentially ruined because of all the methane out of that not an environmental doctor different that oh my god that was not an oracle dude you are to us let's be honest we guys like neo this is the most important episode we've ever had because we are asking anything and everything like what happens after death we're gonna ask it you're gonna help us get there oh my god dude well this is a good time we appreciate you so much yeah thank you for coming in it's nice to see that there's other creators in New York there I feel like there's few of us I know yeah yeah yeah yeah come hey ball where do you ball yeah I'm all where do you ball well I don't want that I bought I can ball I just gotta say there has to be a blue ball question there was a blue ball question there was a blue ball question was what is it now you know what it is don't ask me I read it someone here wrote it doctor I didn't know how would you define it blue balls it's a hurting of my balls I've never heard why are you asking oh well I am I am closer to being a doctor than he is we've already established that so doctor what is a blue ball blue balls are a build up of semen sperm and semen in the testicular region that as it is traveling through it kind of gets stopped at the door by the bouncer yeah and it's just like we are at capacity or we're not letting anyone in tonight out private event not letting anyone out yeah yeah you put like they're standing at like the base of the shaft and they're just like stay here and then and then it just stays there and it's just like it's like when you know when people like like an overcrowded room you know uncomfortable too much in there and it's like the walls are gonna burst at a certain point now that did I no I mean it was it was a good swing good swing right but you it wasn't exactly in the right direction I mean I'm looking for exacts but at least give me like I am on the right path well semen is not involved in the process got you so blue balls is epididimal congestion or hypertension so basically you get a lot of blood flow to your general area that increases pressure but then when you don't orgasm that pressure just builds in stays but it's a blood flow so it's a vascular issue oh it's like a penis heart attack no that sounded for some reason that's how that's so smart absolutely not absolutely not at all actually a penis heart attack is more like when you have you know one of those erections that last more than eight hours they always stay on the commercials oh yeah yeah because literally that blood sits there and because it's losing oxygen it's to acidify it's damaging the endothelial lining there so yeah that's like a penis heart attack oh so if that oh that's why they got a drain it I never I have to drain it yeah yeah so don't do it well I mean I wouldn't even know how well they say like with those like gas station pills yeah like horny goat weed that'll get you go yeah horny goat weed that's what you know I mean you grew up in New York you don't remember going to the bodega and seeing horny goat weed behind right next to the fart bags tell me what you did in this bro you know is that how you got something right next to the part I got lemon lemon heads lemon heads I was getting lemon heads you are by horny you remember rain blow the gumballs that had like the food dye in them so your mouth would turn different color what the hell you had an interesting childhood sir don't do two bucks for me don't yeah no like you don't seriously you never went into bodega and saw like horny goat weed different bodega so they they're like it's like a pill and it literally has a goat on it or like people making out and it's called horny goat weed look it up well what happened when you would take it I didn't take it we know so much about it it's at the counter it's at the count it's like it's used as like you know the like fuck what's it called Viagra Viagra it was like the like bodega Viagra basically well interesting Viagra and all those medications so then a fill they in the commercials you hear them say if you have an erection lasting more than four hours it almost never happens as a result of just those medications so they don't really cause that what are those medications do it's just like a that's like circulation okay yeah but like how does it target the ball like dick it doesn't that's why some people get blood shot when they they're eyes get blood shot when they take it their nose sometimes runs because it opens all the blood vessels oh wow it's a visa relaxer and this is serious I don't think I've known someone that's ever taken them and I guess they wouldn't publicize that to me I don't know because you're not a doctor yeah yeah I know plenty of people who take it well have you prescribed it of course why do you say it like that because you make it sound like I'm a fake doctor you're a prescribed I don't do that I don't want to come off you're here of a Moxah sealant I just didn't know if it was something you've ever done
