Welcome to the Jock Doc Podcast
featuring Dr. London Smith he’s got a
wealth of medical knowledge because he
studied health in his medical college
introducing your host Dr. London Smith
hello and welcome to the Jock Doc
Podcast where we discussed fitness and
health and how to incorporate our modern
understanding of science and medicine
into our daily lives but without it
being so boring I’m your
host Dr. LondonSmith.com
I’d like to begin by
apologizing to our listeners we have
received some complaints about the
overuse of technical terminology I’ve
been using such as skeleton and pumpkin
spice latte so I’ll try to tone it down
a little as we go along here to help
with that is our producer Cameron zip
zop zort
Cameron is like a wind chime in the
breeze catching the subtle changes of
winds and pressures of the trends of the
world and then translating that into a
melody that harmonizes with the medical
topics discussed here so that every ear
is highly engaged in tuned in amen dr.
London also with us is DJ DYLAN IN DA HOUSE
[Music]
okay well and later in the show Cameron
tells me that we can also expect a guest
so look forward to that before we move
on I would like to address a bit of
listener feedback quote food is great
but the owner Ronnie is a scumbag who
sleeps around I went to the doctor
because I thought I had a yeast
infection but then doc says I got
trichomonas and I am pissed but I will
rise up and hold my head high and quote
well first of all thank you so much for
reaching out to us here at the jock dock
podcast we always appreciate hearing
back from our listeners the situation
you present it does sound difficult with
an apparent diagnosis with a sexually
transmitted infection and this Ronnie
character being a person of ill repute
well it sounds like there’s a further
story there so it is understandable that
you’re upset aren’t you gonna have this
guy’s back a little bit he’s a bro I
you’re just thrown him under the bus
that quickly you don’t even know the guy
that’s that’s true I so whenever I said
of ill-repute his reputation from what I
can gather from this quote that I have
is that it’s negative so okay so it’s
your job when someone has a negative rep
to just throw them under the bus that’s
what doctors do this is just part of the
your process is this what universal
health care is no where’s when there’s
just you try to get everyone on the same
level and it’s by throwing every single
person under a bus for our listeners to
clarify the concept of universal health
care is not holding a particular opinion
of a given person or group universally
that’s not that’s not what universal
health care is yeah it is okay so
universal health care is more the
concept of bringing health care to
everyone you know
no or minimal cost as a right that
that’s sort of what that’s about
whereas in this situation the right to
get more people into your offices so you
can throw them under the bus I see
exactly what what you’re going for here
dr. London honestly it’s kind of an
alpha move all right I kind of I’m kind
of digging it I’m changing my mind from
what I was saying
45 seconds ago it’s kind of baller huh
okay so so to answer their question it’s
understandable that they’re upset given
the situation but it sounds like they’ve
already sought professional medical care
and they have the right mindset to move
on so to this listener you know keep on
going conquer these challenges and we
wish you well now for a tale from the
clinic I went to see a spanish-speaking
patient so I required a translator I
asked the patient what brought them to
the clinic today and they told a long
story to the translator and this took
several minutes so finally when they had
finished speaking the translator said
well I woke up and went to the restroom
then I brushed my teeth Wow in the
restroom then I went to the coffee maker
and made some coffee
and sorry to bear in mind before this I
just asked what brought them to the
clinic today I said to go on went to the
coffee meter maker and made some coffee
the coffee made her coffee machine so is
this the kind of well thought out well
planned for expertise that I should
expect when I step into dr. London’s
office type you got a Keurig coffee
maker in the office this is why
universal healthcare is bad or good
because I don’t remember where I settled
on it moments ago okay so to continue
with that patients quote after after
that I went to the mailbox and checked
the mail in the mail I found a letter
that said I have an
appointment at the doctor’s office today
and so that is why I am here today
that’s the end of the quote so now we
ask we ask what are known as open-ended
questions for these patient encounters
so the patient has a chance to share
their most pressing concerns without us
narrowing down the parameters of what
they can speak about this can help
making sure that we listen to a given
patient in order to arrive at the best
diagnosis and treatment options well so
when I asked so that you have a kind of
more thorough and nuanced way to throw
them into the bus well no so the
open-ended question is so that they
could potentially guide us more so
that’s way more it’s the context
provided to to offer a more effective
way for you to kind of just screw them
over as much as you possibly can so with
your with your coffee Mader in your
office so so in this case the the
strategy of using an open-ended question
such as what brought you to the clinic
today or what kind of flavors do you
have in your coffee mater so sometimes I
can elicit a response like this which
tells us nothing of the patient’s actual
symptoms okay okay so anyway so that was
that patient base it was a normal thing
sort of that the ER but that can
sometimes happen where you ask an
open-ended question
anyway now for today’s topic
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mmm the term
zesty well for these patients may be not
so much so the term hypertrophy refers
to an overgrowth and in this case we
were referring to an overgrowth of a
portion of the heart muscle hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy is a genetic heart
disease that is most commonly inherited
in an autosomal dominant fashion
the main problem in hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy is the diastolic
expansion of the heart due to a stiff
left lower chamber of the heart and this
can be so overly big and muscular
that it actually blocks the outflow of
blood from the heart to the rest of the
body so for that reason patients can
present with fainting or even sudden
death and because this is genetic the
sudden death can happen even in a young
patient
so basically parts of the the heart are
so big and muscular that it blocks the
blood that’s trying to get out whenever
it whenever the heart pumps the classic
presentation is so you’re are you you’re
saying maybe kind of working out the
heart area which we have discussed
before possibly two or three other times
you’re saying it’s now bad because I
left those conversations believing put
it kind of putting in the effort to
exercise your heart to make it big and
strong like the grinch as we’ve
discussed before right so was a positive
so in this instance it’s a genetic thing
their heart is already too big from when
they’re born
okay like an elephant I I don’t I don’t
think I felt like the size of an
elephant you have an elephant heart
maybe it’s it’s more a particular part
of the heart it’s too big okay and so
that part blocks off the the flow of
blood to the right I don’t think if
analysis you’re saying that these people
born with these gigantic hearts are born
with this capacity to love know
empathize with other people more than
it’s almost like being born with a
superpower well that’s so interesting so
I love science so the classic
presentation for how this medicine is so
cool how people can find out they have
this is a young athlete just suddenly
dies how young like in their teens like
they’re in high school playing football
okay and they just suddenly die and the
the sort of classic scenario in which
that can happen is from hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy you’re saying they loved
too much and that’s what did them in
well what I’m really saying is that that
I personally doctor one and I think
maybe this world could use some more
love instead of trying to tell people
that their capacity to love is too large
and they need to
shrink it or you’re gonna die on a
football field well not personally I
think that’s insane I guess I should
clarify that whenever I refer to the
heart I’m not referring to the emotional
heart I’m referring to the UM the whoa I
mean I’m not even I’m talking about the
physical blob in the upper right part of
your chest upper left is where so that’s
the liver is what you’re thinking of I’m
just telling you where love is dr.
London see you’re under the impression
that love is stored in the liver the top
right part of the heart or I guess upper
right chest would actually be that just
the lungs yeah okay that’s where love is
stored dr. London okay well and so to
clarify from my perspective at least the
extra exercise with compromised blood
flow from the heart is actually that’s a
recipe for disaster which is why
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy it it’s a
real medical issue that you basically
tell the patient’s don’t exercise which
is a rare thing to tell any patient
that’s literally exactly what I was just
saying don’t exercise because you’re
stretching your capacity of love beyond
what your body can handle okay and once
again it’s not love it’s muscle how did
you learn that from from the back of
your coffee Mader dr. London
[Applause]
Jim
all right Cameron did you say that we
had a guest today we absolutely do dr.
London okay
all right who do you have for us today
this is dr. London Smith calm on the
jock doc podcast welcome hi I’m uh I’m
Fancy Octopus and I am a fancy
octopus yes I am my name is a bit
descriptive like you know like how edge
is constantly living on the edge or he
is literally just an edge I am a fancy
octopus I escaped from the aquarium but
I’m you know okay whoa oh wow so ya can
speak I’m sorry I interrupted you well
I’m just saying I have a little bit of a
complaint with your clinic because I was
yeah yes yeah go on
so I was um I was writing I was just so
I needed to get to work the other day
what wasn’t not really work is more like
a sauce thing but so I was I was riding
the bus to work and it happened to pass
by your clinic and we hit a bump and I’m
pretty sure I saw somebody standing out
the window just throwing a body in front
of the bus and we went over that body
and it bumped and it spilled soup all
over me and it really ruined my day
Wow yeah so that’s what you mean
whenever you say it was more of a sauce
thing it was yeah I spilled sauce all
over me
that’s really what happens I couldn’t go
to work the issue linic was that you’d
the bus you were on ran over a body
well dr. London why are you why are you
responding in such a condescending way
yeah I mean obviously threw someone
under my bus and it impacted my commute
so you’re under the impression hock term
and you’re running the impression that I
was the one responsible for throwing
that body under your bus I mean it’s the
dr. London medical clinic
it’s the biggest clinic you know in the
area it even says dr. London .com on the
side and my bus goes by it every day and
sure enough a body was thrown under the
bus and I don’t know if it was your
assistant but I’m assuming you tell them
what to do so that that sounds highly
atypical for I don’t believe that that
was anyone at my clinic as far as I know
certainly not something that we would do
as a part of our clinical practice would
be throwing any so this is something
you’ve done in your free time this is
not something but yeah this is I mean
I’m not this isn’t like I’m not trying to like
bring the better business bureau here
I mean it was just a little bit of sauce
on my jacket but you know I would
definitely say you should take in mind
people’s commutes when you’re throwing
people under the bus okay and yeah I
guess that’s the other part so normally
we would be concerned with you know
someone being injured by a bus running
over them but so I guess your main
concern was just it’s the sauce got on
me is my foes it was a good sauce I mean
this was some expensive sauce and these
are the kind of risks you have to
consider before you just kind of
willy-nilly you know every single person
that you see every patient that comes
into your office every person you
interact with and talk to and have
relationship with constantly trying to
undermine them and kind of really just
kind of push them down to the point of
suicide which is a lot of what you focus
on I add from what I can tell listening
to this podcast that seems to be maybe
the mission statement of the podcast
okay
so I sort of tell the mission statement
at the beginning of each episode that we
discussed fitness and health well okay
and how do we okay sit or months assign
some medicine to our daily lives go on
so this is a fitness and health podcast
yeah yeah that’s the and I I don’t know
who or are you sure that someone was
actually thrown under the bus whenever
the bus ran over them
I mean it it may have been like a toss
maybe a throw it was underhand so maybe
it’s not a throw maybe you toss somebody
under the bus but there was a body from
the second window thrown and it
perfectly matched tore that before they
hit the ground the tires of the bus had
gone over them yeah you know kind of
duck alone and you know in Little League
in between t-ball and then playing
normally you kind of have coach pitch
and it’s sort of sometimes underhand but
the point of it is kind of like a
lighter touch to it it sounds like
that’s exactly what’s happening but in
this case with a corpse corpse being
thrown under the bus
yep did the bus stop after running over
this no it’s just kind of I mean like
you know you got to get you got to be on
time who who was driving this bus was
this a person I was driving I was
driving the bus oh you were dead it
wasn’t okay I mean it may not have been
a bus it may have been a van I stole and
it may have been a van I was actually
carrying tons of sawsan and it may have
been that I was actually just kind of
collecting people and dropping them off
at random places against their will
that’s a bus – it’s a bus right yeah the
bus so and I guess to clarify a few
points here
when you say sauce is that like soy
sauce or is that a particular type of
sauce I like to call it a boss sauce
because I like to say in the sauce
industry the sauce is boss as my hot
sauce is my boss it’s worth more than me
and gold and it was a mixture of
marinara and teriyaki soy sauce and it
it was like a special it was a special
blend for this new fusion restaurant
happening on the north end and it’s you
know it’s a nice like spaghetti with
chicken teriyaki going down it was
really good sauce it cost us all at $35
per tablespoon this was a very very
fancy establishment I mean I’m not
allowed to say but someone who yells at
people on TV for food is the CEO of the
restaurant I’m not going to say that but
you
he was he was he was livid when I spent
spilt that much sauce on me okay I’m I
guess they’re they’re kind of a lot of
questions I have at the moment which I
feel like unpacking the situation first
can we go back to you you said you were
an octopus yes well yes but I have a
disguise that makes people think that
I’m a person because I am crying I’m
currently trying to destroy the Western
world okay and Western world like
specifically meaning like like I mean
just to catch all of the western
hemisphere on fire okay okay would be it
would be that’s one way to do it this
kind of a back burner I’ve had my trials
and tribulations with that I’ve gotten
really into sauce as of recently it
really sounds like it yeah I’m a big
sauce fan you know I mean what’s so with
the you know I but I do have to pretend
to be human and I do I do want to say I
think the addition to a boss style sauce
to the sauce marketplace is a real smart
move I think one of the things we
focused on too much over the last decade
sauce wise our epic sauces epic ass
sauces you know arm sauces bomb sauces
you know like kick ass epic hot sauce oh
and it has like a picture of a donkey
but it’s you know we’re like it has like
a gun in a skull and it’s like this will
fucking kill you no yeah exhaust is your
boss it will berate you it will demean
you it will make you forget why you even
like your work and then it will fire you
and when you get fired and you taste of
the free the sweet sweet taste of
freedom from that boss sauce you have it
on a little sandwich and you remember
the sauce is pretty boss Wow and that’s
that’s the moment we’re trying to sell
[Applause]
[Music]
camryn do we have any sponsors today ooh
it’s complicated
[Music]
so ok I guess I’ll explain it so do we
have do it was did a company were an
organization I pay money it’s to the
show come to have their product or
service advertised on the show Kate it
it’s complicated
I’m working I’m working through a bit of
a legal issue ok well what’s the what’s
legal issue um do you remember cameron
scooters yeah very very very successful
and well plotted idea so you were to
refresh our listeners you had come up
with this idea where you stole these
scooters that have been electric
scooters from around town from other
people who are using them and then had a
few ideas for basically including
fireworks with it and selling the
combination of firework and sound and
scooter as a product for $7,500 yeah and
you said that was your big one it wasn’t
just holding fireworks the goal was to
go really really fast yeah I’m sorry you
want to go to those at 130 miles an hour
yeah 120 to 130 miles an hour was the
goal and you wanted specific sounds be
made by the fireworks yeah and if I
wanted the fireworks to go pouch and if
I if they couldn’t make those sounds I
would attach a Bluetooth speaker that
would play those sounds correct okay so
so that product right
yeah you so that somehow got you into
legal issues yeah well sorta I don’t
know if it’s you know like Law & Order I
don’t know if it’s the law side or the
order side so basically I killed three
people
son why I’m riding my scooter around
town ranked 120 miles an hour weaving in
between trees and stuff oh oh
cops are chasing me they’re going slow
down I’m saying never all the kind of
stuff anyway so I hit this guy okay run
to the back of the car and you you hit
the guy he hit the car I hit the car
that a guy was driving okay with three
other people in the car okay
unfortunately the scooter went through
the width the the back window okay
chopped off the heads three people in
the back seats is that did you install
like a saw or something on the scooter
or a blade that’s that doesn’t sound
that possible for a scooter to do unless
you were going just ridiculously fast
well I am going 120 miles an hour
I even that sounds so to cut off to
decapitate people you don’t think it had
anything to do with me whittling it down
right like the part you stand on I
whittled it down to kind of be in a
cooler shape in my yeah I guess it could
it just sounds very far-fetched okay I
guess regarde
you know dismissing the physics of that
chocolate of their heads okay with the
scooter guy who was driving was pissed
never seen someone so mad I’m like dude
calm down so so you killed two people
three three and then there was another
driver so there are four people total
okay there was a driver and there was
any other people in the car okay I said
minutes ago okay I’m sorry I’m trying to
get this straight so you killed the
three people they were all sitting in
the back okay I don’t know if it was an
uber situation I don’t know why okay
three people in the back guy driving
three people in the back head chopped
off okay scooter was too sharp and fast
and hot because of the fireworks okay
so you know combination pretty cool
pretty cool combination and was the
sounds maybe not the coolest combination
in every single situation I imagine for
the people whose heads were chopped off
it was not the coolest situation but
that is irrelevant right so the guy was
there in my rear view I don’t even think
about those people anymore they’re long
gone fake friends
you know it doesn’t sound like they were
friends of any kind that’s what I’m
saying fake friends anyway so the driver
guy he’s pissed I’m like dude calm down
it’s not even like that big of a deal
well like if these real people is a big
deal it’s just didn’t even I just didn’t
see like how people died trying to go to
the moon you know like in the
preparation to go to the moon yeah
you mean like they died of natural
causes no no no they died in tests and
stuff okay repair for the initial moon
landing and you think that you I think
every great human feet comes with some
risks and sometimes those risks our
bodies and see you great well in China
lots of people died building those the
pyramids tons of people died building
this sure world war 2 one of the
greatest things ever people died but
this wasn’t this is your finished
product yeah killing people going fast
making cool noises okay so the guy was
so you know
oh yeah guy was pissed my dude calm down
dude and he’s like no I’m gonna call the
cops and you’re gonna go to jail forever
like oh yeah I’m gonna go to jail for
being an inventor no for killing three
people was probably well yeah throw me
in jail because I decided to to be
innovative okay cool yeah lock me up sir
lock up Einstein you know if Einstein
killed three people then yeah he would
have also been imprisoned probably and
so anyway this guy’s like hey look man
I’m not I won’t call the cops if you
help me out he he made that big of a
tonal change whenever you had just
killed three of the people in the car
yeah what he had that little attachment
to them he was pissed and then he goes
hey man I’ll help you out okay if you
help me out okay it sound like you found
a very shady person
I was like okay cool and he’s a cool guy
we’re hanging out later so he he’s like
all right I got like a ton of horse-feed
they got to get rid of I’m like okay
well I don’t know much about horses but
I know a lot about feed right I know
what you do with it and know what
happens to it
whenever you say feed do you meat just
mean eating yeah
like you know a lot about hiding it and
then what happens later I know all about
it
so I’m like yeah I can probably help you
out okay so that is why I’m really
really really excited and happy to
present dr. London’s medical grade
equine feed okay why is my name on that
because I he wanted a level of
legitimacy that camera and scooter
creator did not offer cuz that was my
idea
initially I didn’t want to get you
involved at all thank you for that
Cameron’s scooter Creators equine horse
feed just didn’t flow I guess oh yeah so
I signed you oh so now I mean we have
like 3,500 of these bags of horse feed
that we got a we got a sell I and you’re
wanting me to to read this ad copy okay
if I I need I need to stress something
here you keep saying like oh you want me
to read this or whatever I don’t care
this guy does the guy who you killed
three of his friends yeah and he said
these aren’t gonna be the
only dead bodies if you don’t unload
this horse feed he threw it he
threatened your life he I don’t he said
I’m gonna add more bodies to the pile I
don’t know whose life he’s talking about
but I assume it’s yours now that your
name’s attached to it and okay have you
tried going to the police about any of
this dude he is the police are you sure
he’s not like the Mafia well he was
listening to the police okay well that
is different there’s a distinction to be
made there people can buy police
scanners and listen to those without
being policemen he was listening to the
police exam okay okay so the brown tank
so when you say that he greatest hits
album okay so you weren’t associated him
with a law officer turned to Louvre was
that is that the police I am Not sure I
was but what I am sure of is okay he’d
sounds like he was not it sounds like he
was not an officer of the law I don’t
know he’s listened at the police so
anyway you you need he read this ad I I
look I don’t want to get involved in the
Mafia it has nothing to do with them off
yeah it has to do with horse-feed
medical-grade horse-feed sponsored by
dr. london smith what makes it medical
grade you’re the doctor why are you I
think it’s so three people kit and I
don’t like maybe TJ Dylan can you just
maybe edit some of this out or something
yeah make it louder I okay
is your horse too slow
he needs dr. London’s medical grade
equine feed go from zero to speedy with
our 100% genuine horse approved feed
parcels for only $75 a basket okay and I
don’t we don’t have did you have horses
approve this yeah was that part of the
process read the ends okay if your horse
doesn’t win the Kentucky Derby after
eating my feed I will personally eat the
same amount
I guarantee it okay I won’t do that it’s
in the ad that was one of the things he
really really stressed but I have to eat
that someone’s eating this okay for more
info contact Cameron who will be at the
Downtown Carl’s jr. tomorrow through
Thursday through Thursday love you bye
and that was part of the ad too yep
yes that’s the part I objectivity the
least but alright i Cameron you should I
guess lay low for a while cuz murdering
three people isn’t a small thing it’ll
be easy to lay low my name’s not on the
product your says no I mean for the
murder not the feed that the horse feed
he said it was fine the guy said it was
fine he was listening to the police so
[Music]
okay well I guess thank you to our
sponsor which I guess isn’t me yep
alright
[Music]
okay and sorry and to clarify have you
you’ve always been able to speak
articulately as or at all I suppose as
an octopus or is that you would never
say that’s something you were making
coffee with a coffee mater for exam I
would only say making coffee with coffee
mater if I was in the movie Cars yeah
mater had come up and given me coffee
but that’s obviously that’s blessing
everyone does that but no all octopus
can speak oh wow I I’ve never I’ve never
heard of that is that that’s why would
we want to talk to you guys
well the reason I talk to people is to
further my plans okay and so today your
plans I guess have some interaction with
us is our what-what-what is our
involvement in this destruction of the
Western world because I’m on the fence
right now but I can be very easily
persuaded so my big thing was throwing
people under the bus is a great concept
for my plans keep doing it but just
don’t do it under my bus okay but I’m
here to encourage everything that’s
happening here all mm-hmm
I’m sorry well just to clarify I I don’t
believe that anyone that I am aware of
was responsible for throwing anyone
under that bus I’m not sure what
happened in the scenario are you sure
well dr. Linda I think he I believe he’s
suggesting that are very podcast itself
is assisting in his plan to destroy the
Western world I okay and I guess on that
note which I I would suggest that maybe
half of the podcast is maybe the half
that’s stuff here put this richer doc
doctoring elite
whereas maybe the half of the podcast
that maybe makes the world better is
kind of the more smart handsome cool guy
one
okay well and I appreciate that feedback
but okay I guess what you just that you
see our guests and I discussing
something as feedback I mean yes so
let’s let’s let’s pull back the curtain
we are all sitting here I’m surprised
you didn’t know I was an octopus since
we’re in the same room I get my disguise
is very good I guess that’s that’s I
should take it as a compliment yeah
let’s pull the curtain back yeah I mean
you have you look exactly like Jonah
Hill which is interesting because that’s
kind of who I thought I was kidding when
I when I kind of you know I do sometimes
mark myself as Jonah Hill because people
do want to talk to him he’s a very funny
guy he’s a wonderful person I’ve I have
spent some time with Jonah Hill and
that’s how I got it I got his agent I’ve
really just been like kind of low-key
bin Jonah Hill for the past few weeks
Wow
and I begin some great engagements but
yeah we’re in this CEO and you’re
engaged yet yeah okay well Congrats I
was okay and that was engaging that as
Jonah has you were engaged well as Jonah
Hill but more importantly it was kind of
spooky you know so I brought my fiancee
we were we met it was lovely time and
then you know we moved all our documents
together into my new apartment and we’re
moving there and you know we we had
trouble sleeping because there’s all
these like rackets and howling and all
crazy nonsense above the Kawas say stuff
like you know like oh you know the devil
is coming for you all this nonsense or
whatever right and then one day so we’re
not sleeping at all there’s something
going on in the house and then one day I
got up and her cat had spilled freakin
like Vegemite like some like kind of
like pulp Vegemite all over my 20:18 tax
documents I’m no longer able to keep
financial consistency of my tax returns
and I and I had the dumper for it no I
mean and it really it’s rattled me I am
horrified this is why I don’t Co
cohabitate with the nostril yeah and so
you know okay and then you know so the I
still hearing the noises but you know
I’ve gotten used to it but man I’m still
rattled by those tacks donkey
they really are just okay so so as at
going about as Jonah Hill for the past
few weeks has led to some engagement
which I get it sounds like it’s actually
over so I’m sorry to hear that yeah okay
but it was it was definitely a good it
was a good it was a good run while it
lasted
okay well I’m to go back to this van
because you kind of changed your story a
little bit with how it was a bus than
it’s a van and you were trying to and
then we establish that a bus is a van if
you are transporting dropping people off
against their will right because tell me
about these people
why were you dropping them off against
their will okay so I have an associate
he’s you know he has this company and
it’s it’s called non-consensual tours
it’s essentially like if you’re tourists
in the city but you like are on your day
where you don’t want to go walk around
and stuff we don’t allow that we find
you we kidnap you and we drive around
town and we give you a tour of the city
against your will
Wow well this no no it’s just people we
find out like you know like hotels and
stuff yeah this sounds great I’ve
there’s so many times I’ve been on
vacation or traveling to another city
and just trying to figure out what to do
on a free afternoon is overwhelming in
and of itself and some this is taking
yeah and you know you’re just sitting
there thinking like I don’t know I’m
feel a little bad and maybe I want to
stay in tonight
no we pull up we grab you in the guy you
know he gives up he’s knows a wonderful
walking tour of the town it’s it’s
beautiful we do have to like gag you
because you people like to scream but
some people get excited by that so when
win in my opinion okay I guess to me it
sounds a little unusual because what
Karen was suggesting was that you sign
up for like at least from what the way
you made it sound is you sign up for
something and then that’s not wise if
you’re bored nope okay does it not has
nothing to do with what I just said I
said when you’re visiting another town
or city that you’re not familiar with
right it can be overwhelming to spend a
lot of time trying to figure out what to
do what sites to see right and so you
just said had anything to do with what I
had just said yeah I think I think we’re
all on the same page here we’re all
saying that this is a completely
legitimate business that’s not illegal
and that we should keep kidnapping
tourists yeah I mean I I would even
maybe think about franchising this thing
I think we can I mean we could probably
get into like all of the East Coast and
possibly even the south I think there’s
a lot of markets that would that would
open up to this if you think about you
know Duck Tours remember Duck Tours were
really sort of a popular thing for a
while but then the one and that Detroit
or something I mean it’s sunk it’s sunk
and that’s I have some duck boats but
you know it turns out they’re dangerous
so we had to like rebrand them as vans
do you distilled so driving to the water
well so two questions of we’ve already
decided that a van with people in it is
a bus and yes we do drive into the water
but it’s usually to hide the evidence
okay I and what evidence do you mean
bodies I mean it depends sometimes the
non-consensual tour business I try and
keep this separate because it’s not
really my business it’s an associates
and I just help them out every once in a
while and I get to deliver sauce in the
van right but sometimes you know I need
to dispose in my machinations of you
know let’s say I wanted to see if I
could make the line at the airport
longer well I would need to destroy a
bunch of documents the airport and the
easiest way to do that is to drive it
into the water because no one’s gonna
find the documents there so you’re
really I mean it sounds like you’re
multitasking ultimately it’s very
efficient yeah well I it sounds like
okay for one thing we believe in a
patient autonomy where a patient
actually gets to make their own
decisions and so okay I mean you would
want to make the whole medical process
automatic not just get rid of everyone’s
jobs I see how it is okay I think
it’s ours that what you’re saying doctor
no I’m sorry to clarify patient autonomy
is whenever the patient love your
patients to be just robots automatic
robots ooh combination be just troll
take away our jobs
dr. LAN den my lungs hurt and then you
say oh I’m gonna push you under a bus or
whatever or don’t because again I don’t
remember where I settled on that at the
beginning I think I’m pretty sure I was
able to listen in because I was just in
the room here that you settled on when
cycling me oh you took notes I took a
lot and there’s way more notes in here
than I need I got like 50 pages man most
of its just drawings of cats but I
believe I do not have where you settled
on that I lied it’s but you took down
notes about let’s say hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy yeah that isn’t that the
Grinch disease yep okay now that’s young
athletes they can suddenly I have you
seen the Grinch I mean play any kind of
sport cuz that dude is not only is he
jacked but he I mean he can move he’s
Swift as well aye Swift you I I’m not
sure that I have seen him play at least
not an organized sport of course you
wouldn’t be familiar with things that
the common man are fine me you’re
obviously not into the Grinch cannon
because you got like you know yeah so
HCM you you you wrote down this is what
this is pretty sure I got you
word-for-word here on this one which is
okay
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is when the
Grinch doesn’t exercise because he has
too much love and that leads to him
suddenly dying yep okay know that you’re
you’re mixing up what I believe I also
said that I love science and I love
medicine because it’s badass
right and that medicine is kind of maybe
we should focus more in like a
supervisor style medicine in what way do
you mean supervisor like supervised as
in okay we already know that you know
you as a doctor trying to get me
addicted to opioids yeah so what maybe
we should maybe instead of having it to
where like the the medicine is like
educating me it’s also supervising me so
it’s like hey I’m not gonna get you
addicted to opioids instead this pill
has a camera on it and it watches you
and if you try and take more pills and
you’re allowed it zaps you interesting.i
so one solution that we’re finding is
just to not prescribe so many opioids do
you think that this kind of pill could
have Wi-Fi technology so it could
connect to your Alexa and then she’d be
able to thank you too you want to
connect it at Twitter really because you
want the pill to let everyone know and
shame you that’s that’s a healthy
psychological thing to do to patients is
to is to berate them and only spook them
I would have to say actually that’s
that’s been found be positive
reinforcement is actually better
oh- giving them the pill that’s like
just like you would give everyone a
trophy you’re just the type of doctor
who gives every patient a trophy that’s
how you see them oh I’m just gonna just
give you positive reinforcement I’m not
gonna be real how might you speak your
mind I so one of the we try to encourage
patients because the more encouragement
you say you know maybe you have these
problems but you can improve in these
ways you know that’s sort of the way
that we see you say you’re at a certain
spot now but we can do better
giving every patient a trophy has to
just good old-fashioned you know
everyone special yeah but he sees
everyone as special and also wants them
to be a robot that he throws under the
bus this is the kind of and nuanced and
complicated views that dr. London has
towards the common man that’s what he
calls people like this I actually I do
have a question about the Grinch disease
what essential oil should I use to
combat this ooh okay most to my
knowledge essential oils aren’t really
our first line or even second line drugs
except for they’re called essential
they’re essential oils I mean are you
okay I mean okay I’m just gonna give you
my my essential oil breakdown of the day
so first I get out of my human costume
and I will all around and you might
octopus squishy things it’s it’s a fun
great okay then I fill a tub completely
full of garlic and sage oil and my
entire apartment reeks of garlic the
demons up in the second floor they hate
it they they don’t like garlic I mean I
kind of wish they liked it more cuz they
come hang out but they’re just busy
screaming cuz they smell it garlic’s so
strong they nice submerge myself
completely and I can barely breathe in
there because the oxygen content of
garlic oil is very low right and so I
nearly pass out to the garlic fumes
until I like but I have a little timer
and then when I pass out my tentacle
hits the timer and it turns on the cold
water and it wakes me up and it’s like
it’s like being born now is that
something that can help solve my my
eight my Grunch disease that I have yeah
absolutely to clarify on this so the
where you’re referring to is the Grinch
disease hypertrophic cardiomyopathy it’s
it’s a genetic disease that you’re
either born with or not and I’m are
saying my genes are good enough to have
hyper high of the Grinch disease I’m
saying that most likely your genes are I
thought you were in the benefit of
reinforcements
it’s um positive to you doctor it’s I
mean I I’m feeling personally attacked
Wow
so you’re saying that I’m not gonna feel
insecure about his own body so it’s
actually it’s not a good disease to have
it is a disease so not having it like so
you’re saying he’s not allowed to have
it because you’ve decided that it’s bad
no this is the kind of Manny state
nonsense that I’m crazy about I mean
he’ll just join me and I’m currently on
on on track to burn down the entire
Western Hemisphere
I mean I haven’t tried you thrown a few
matches at the forest hasn’t gone too
well okay I mean if they’re if you know
if you’re saying that my garlic oil
isn’t helping my octopus heart then I
don’t know if I can trust the medical
establishment right which is good you
definitely should not be trusting the
medical establishment especially not
doctor London if you wanted to swing by
my pharmacy which we have talked about
in previous episodes I stock up on some
great stuff that I kind of find around
the house and you know from like friends
of friends and whatever do you have like
you have like a good alternative to like
let’s say the measles back
cuz I mean I’m worried about getting an
MMR okay well I’ve got some I’ve got
some red stuff measles are red h-hour
measles red dr. London me the measles
that the virus isn’t so I think these
are red I got some red is blue because
I’m an octopus with the red measles turn
into purple measles yeah what gosh so
what we can do I’ve got some red stuff
it’s like a good sweet stuff I think
I’ve also got some blue even goofier
stuff I mean I think again I think if
you maybe did two to one ratio of the
red goopy stuff to the blue case it down
keep your color pretty solid write this
down okay okay good I’ll come by later
today what what what arm do you write
with are you which handed are you I
normally were with my fifth
counterclockwise but they’re all pretty
good I’m pretty ambidextrous
ambidextrous okay I do want to ask for a
quick what what are your plans going
forward and and why do you want to burn
down the western sea Western Hemisphere
was that they cancelled VeggieTales
after only two episodes Wow even though
VeggieTales was a straight to VHS series
they canceled I’ve only been able to
find two VHS right someone did tell me
recently that there are other seasons of
VeggieTales and I’m not sure about that
I have I have a growing list of concerns
like first off I was in fact stolen from
my home in near Florida and put into
Miami aquarium that put a thorn in me
but then you know I also I went to
Burger King HQ in New York City when
they cancelled the chicken fingers or
the chicken fries and I was like hey
dude like I don’t I mainly eat these
chicken fries can I talk to the CEO and
they just they just threw me out of the
building I mean I get I was holding a
knife but you know I’m allowed to do
that as an American and so the building
that also that was the one that we got
me really mad
now you went straight to California to
try and burn down you know try and start
a huge riot in Alcatraz oh wow
when you went to that Burger King were
you in your human you’re Jonah Hill
persona or were you going as an octopus
because either of those could get a
reaction I did go as an octopus for that
one and New York’s really easy to get
around because I just go in the sewers
or the subway people really don’t do
anything lately Seahawks was on the
subway they’re like whatever right and
who who was this associate you were
talking about before it seems like a lot
of this was centered around kind of the
whims of this associate reason you were
driving the sauce why I have one of my
main associates is this man named proper
gin I don’t know if he knows I’m an
octopus yet I think he does I’m not sure
but we you know we do some projects
together and and so he but he’s a very
proper gentleman from from the UK I
believe when you say that he doesn’t
know yet is is this sort of a difficult
thing for you to reveal your identity as
being an octopus to people I mean he’s a
pretty cool guy but I mean some people
are really against octopuses because I
mean I remember I went to Vegas and they
eat octopus there Wow I know that it
depends man mm-hmm right well in animal
I mean I had some I didn’t realize is
octopus but pretty good yeah I only ask
because you know different people
identify in different ways and so I
understand how it could be difficult for
you to sort of I go public with your
identity how you identify whether that
be human or octopus well I mean it’s not
that identify as octopuses I am an
octopus right right no i night identify
as male a straight male and that’s not
an octopus are you saying that dr.
london great male I’m an octopus dude I
mean I am across the I see you hat I see
you you look like an acht I’m just
saying
you know we in this day and age we have
to it’s not only what we sort of
physically are but it’s also how we
identified and know if you identified oh
I see what you’re saying says I have to
yes you I mean and I do sorry to
interrupt sidenote a little bit it is
insane insanely impressive that your
costume to look like Jonah Hill is just
a hat it’s so crazy how I thought you
were Jonah Hill and that’s why I invited
you into this record in general and it’s
a really good hat it’s just I mean it’s
just a trucker hat it’s just a normal
trucker hat just like a normal trucker
but you look like Jonah Hill when it’s
on because Jonah Hill does I have never
seen a wear a trucker I don’t understand
it because you of Skeeter from that one
movie Doug no I’m thinking of the
strange wilderness where where Jonah
Hill plays a stoner of cameraman while
they go and hunt down Bigfoot and so I
think a lot of people remember that
movie and so they see the trucker hat
they’re like oh that’s Jonah Hill
2000-2006 right and I guess since even
for those of us who haven’t seen that
movie there is that sort of an
underlying character development that
he’s put on through the year it’s more
of a larger aura yeah – it than it is
even a physical appearance well I mean
you know I can I can do a pretty good
Jonah Hill accent all I’ve heard can
like I can lean into it a little bit
here okay sometimes I like to just gain
weight for some lose weight for all the
roles oh I was in that movie Oh super
bad where I got laid
[Music]
right in the room and without the Hat
can we take the hat off okay and I’ll
try it without the Hat okay there it is
so anyway it’s it’s been great to have
you on Jonah
sorry I’ll take the hat off let’s take
the hat off just okay fancy yeah okay
good yeah sorry it really does sort of
yeah it’s crazy right it’s kind of
insane yeah but um well in any case
we’ve been thankful I I guess Jonah Hill
wouldn’t necessarily have been a like I
guess that would have contributed to the
the medical side of things but having a
big guest in general would have been
something I suppose yeah all right well
anyway – thank you so much
fancy octopus for coming on and for
Jonah Hill I mean if you’re looking for
like a big guest
I do have an internet following kind of
like listens to my words the internet
follows you or well there’s the I follow
a lot of people on the Internet okay
it’s not like a stalker situation no no
I’m not stalking nobody as of yet okay
but I do have you know things that are
published out and so there are people
who have heard the name they exist okay
can you uh can you let us know if you
think so where to find you and yeah on
the Internet yeah I actually you can
find me on my podcast I I know it’s not
great for my secret I didn’t either
publish my podcast but I do it anyway
because I you know I got a music podcast
first impressions music where we you
know talk music and stuff we listen to
new music you want to find new music is
good way to go and then also buried gems
which is like a literature podcast where
we read Internet literature and try and
find the next Harry Potter which that’s
the one proper Jane that’s the big big
destroy the West type thing that were
we’re thinking that we’re gonna do
great work over there Wow right because
if you can get their rights to that
before it takes off then we’ll have all
the money we need right okay
oh that’s so it’s purely a funding
initiative for okay also we figured if
we create if we find the next Harry
Potter and we advertise it successfully
it will create a civil war right okay I
I you know how that can be good you know
how like Twilight had Team Edward and
Team Jacob yes everybody was about to
kill each other over it now imagine if
we had Twilight and Harry Potter
multiplied them by each other and then
add in some Fifty Shades of Grey I do
I’m this is sorry I don’t mean to stop
everything in its tracks but my father
was I mean he was Team Jacob and you
know I was Team Edward and so we haven’t
well we haven’t brought up in a long
time
Lucas feels divided nation is now but
just why would I pick a werewolf why
would you pick a werewolf over the
vampire like I I just don’t get but I
told you I’m on your side sorry I
shouldn’t say that we aren’t a political
we aren’t trying to be political in this
podcast but so you see if I even capture
I can capture what just happened here
and magnify it with an even better book
I could show the world I honestly I
don’t
I can’t wish you well on that journey
because that I thought I definitely can
and I can say that it’s the official
endorsement of the jock talk podcast
it’s a fun time if you even if you don’t
want to destroy the world it’s just a
fun time to kind of sounds like it and
the bus tour thing sounds super fun the
bus tour thing is great we don’t
advertise for that because we just take
people it would ruin the surprise of it
exactly so if you ever find yourself in
one of our non-consensual towards thank
you so much you’re we love our patrons
and but you know you will get home
safely Oh chance yeah okay I was gonna
say that didn’t think what I understood
no it was not the case he did establish
they are former duck boats and as we
know things happen once they hit the
water blah blah blah so it’s hard to
tell and sometimes it’s hard to see for
me it’s like kind of a non non-issue if
it floats or not so I’m not really too
worried for you it’s a non-issue because
you’re not on the boat what no I just I
swim because you are an octopus yeah
yeah okay well thank you for being on
the podcast my name is dr. Lennon
smith.com and you’re of course fancy
octopus thank you for being here on the
jock dock podcast thanks for having me
[Music]
[Music]
well that was our last episode or a
third honestly it’s hard to keep track
ever since the fiasco of Cameron losing
his favorite horseshoe so Cameron does
not believe in horses so when he found a
horseshoe
he didn’t understand it nor what to do
with it
but he did drop it on the ground once
and when it clattered he thought it said
something so he’s been trying to hey
you’ve been trying to get it to talk I
mean I think it did anything it did what
it did I don’t think you’re in front of
me right now I know you are yeah so in
this case though that whenever it
clatter you’ve been going on about how
it talked to you and I didn’t think it
did anything it did something and then I
reported it okay so so as I said he
recently lost that horseshoe so he now
thinks that maybe he didn’t listen hard
enough or that there was a secret that
he was trying to tell before it escaped
yep yeah so so I like I didn’t know I’m
is that’s that’s still where it stands
yeah I mean I don’t have a horseshoe on
me do i okay no so so to our listeners
if you have seen Cameron’s horseshoe
somewhere please tell us about it in a
five-star review on your favorite
podcast app and also please text friends
and family with a link to your favorite
episode or just use our handy website
jock podcast calm please please please
help me find my horseshoe please through
a five star review
and you could also send a picture of the
horseshoe or okay so Cameron has a lot
of pictures of this horseshoe yeah and
he’ll insist that you need to send that
one yeah
and that it responds to the name Xena
yep so I guess you could and I think any
horseshoe would work for that no anyway
thank you for listening to the jock doc
podcast ah I found it i grafted it to
the bottom of my foot
[Music]
