Hey kids you’re about to listen to a
comedy podcast that means that none of
this is medical advice or if you need
medical advice or medical care please
contact your doctor
welcome to the jock doc podcast
featuring dr london smith
it’s a new year and you know what that
means
absolutely nothing things are going to
be pretty much the same
probably worse yes introducing your host
dr london smith hello
and welcome to the jock doc podcast
where we discuss 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’ve
received some feedback about the
excessive amount of technical medical
terms that i’ve been using
such as lateralizing hypertension and
happy new year so i will try to temper
my terminology to a simpler one in the
future
here to help with that is our producer
cameron
hey dr london hey
hey what’s up hey hey what’s been going
on with you with
all the holidays going on oh i don’t
know i didn’t know what you were
doing i just said hey and then you were
saying hey i was trying to
oh yeah just just meet your energy yeah
so i yeah that’s why so i asked you know
what hey yeah so i said hey
but um you know what if i was just
asking how the holidays have been going
for you
oh they’ve been going pretty good lots
of
hot chocolate and staying warm by the
fire
with blankets and you know
yeah the old uh you know praying to the
general
and all those things your normal kind of
holiday family stuff
yeah so praying to the general is that
in reference to the
to the sort of intel that we have about
anyway uh that’s fine um listeners can
go back to different episode if they
need
also with us is digital in the hose
happy new year
[Music]
um
[Music]
i
[Music]
and later we can actually um
well we you know sometimes we
find ourselves losing sponsors
and so in instead of a guest
we’re gonna try to win back some of our
sponsors so that’s
i you know i really hate the framing of
this
you know it’s like i don’t you know
these
these aren’t ex-sponsors they are they
were sponsors who are special to us for
a period of time
but nothing lasts forever nope yeah you
know
well so and like one of the reasons you
didn’t see them
as your ex when you were living in that
moment you know
yeah they meant a lot to you and even
though that’s over
it’s okay and to say that you lost them
is to say that honestly it is to say you
would be a different person
because you’re asking for a for
different circumstances to happen in
your life
yeah but so this is i guess to to
compare it to
having an ex this is like if you um
[Music]
intentionally got rid of your ex for no
reason when
the relationship was great and then you
just botched the relationship for no
reason
at great cost to yourself
personally and that was what
needed to happen in that moment to be
who you are today we can get back to
that but
uh before we move on i would like to
address a bit of listener feedback
so this note um i found
okay so so there’s a snowman outside the
house
and the snowman appeared to be
holding this note in its stick hands
and so i guess he’s a listener anyway so
the note reads quote if his cancer
was getting free you should have told us
sooner now it’s loose end quote
so i guess let me repeat that just
because it’s it
gets confusing to me if his cancer was
getting free
you should have told us sooner now it’s
loose
yeah he’s probably got some friends or
family the snowman
who’s had cancer didn’t realize it was
sort of
you know out there spreading around
so so normally well first of all to this
listener this
snowman i guess uh thank you for
reaching out to us here at the choctaw
podcast
uh so whenever someone is cancer free
that means that they don’t have cancer
yes
and that that’s that’s really that’s all
it means it doesn’t
okay so i’m cancer-free yes
yeah for as far as we are as far as we
know yeah
okay so you if you think it’s okay for
me to go around telling people that i’m
cancer-free
yes okay no because it is you’re saying
it is true
i am saying that it is true but
you know you’re right to point it out if
you say
that you are cancer-free or you’re a
cancer survivor
normally you would have had a previous
diagnosis of some form of cancer
beforehand
in order to make that statement uh
you know bear more weight and
socially who would come across as you
have her argue
are you telling me that i’m not
cancer-free
no oh gosh
okay so okay cameron i don’t have
insurance because i withdrew from
i’m it out a year because i wanted to
put all that money into a
soda machine that i bought i really
shouldn’t have done that
okay it’s gonna make way more than
insurance and you’re still
you’re still gonna call that a soda
machine oh
cause just because you you can put
drinks into it and then drinks come out
of it doesn’t make it a soda machine
i really miss when i was cancer-free
okay so anyway so
to this listener um being cancer free
you know that doesn’t mean that there’s
some like loose cancer on the prowl or
something it just it just means that
you’re
you don’t have cancer anymore i should
have clarified that
you know i mean it’s not like uh it’s
not like a creature running around
but it is a contagious disease and
that’s this is one of the reasons that
we
wear masks in socially distance is
because you know cancer is on the loose
okay but no no so it’s actually
the the reason why we wear masks is
because there’s an airborne
highly contagious virus but it’s not
it’s not a can
as far as we’re aware it’s not a
cancer-causing
virus although who
oh chronic inflammation chronic
irritation can
lead to cancer but in any case
um thank you to this listener for thank
you to the snowman for reaching out
and and i guess i guess you didn’t
really have much of a choice your arms
are kind of stiff there
uh but now for today’s medical topic
acute respiratory
failure acute respiratory failure
results when there is inadequate
oxygenation of blood
or inadequate ventilation which is the
elimination of co2
or both so this is a large topic but has
a number of causes
so i will try to be brief in my
explanation here
uh so one basic principle behind this
concept
or behind this condition is the concept
of ventilation and perfusion
so how about maybe to save time in this
segment because there are so many causes
is that in the background while you do
this
i’ll list all of the causes
of acute respiratory failure did you
study up on this
do you know i did yeah i took a class on
it actually
okay well okay that’s great um yeah so
you’ll have your
time if you could do it kind of softly
though because of course i have yeah
sure yeah because i’m gonna explain the
physiology of it
so uh ventilation refers to one’s
ability to breathe air
in and out from the lungs and perfusion
refers to the circulation of blood
within the lungs be caused by
breathing in a ventilation like a boat
boat smells too much sort of you know
the smell when you’re sitting on like a
dock or like a boat
are you are you asking me if if you
smell that too much
no i’m listening i’m listing this
quietly in the background for the
listeners i’m not speaking to you at all
i’m listing
things that can cause you know acute you
know respiratory
yeah failure failure syndrome
right so uh a ventilation perfusion
mismatch also turned vq mismatch refers
to
drink dr pepper when part of the lung
temperature
is able to ventilate without blood flow
or is able to circulate blood flow
without proper ventilation
so the general criteria to define
acute respiratory failure are hypoxia
with the oxygen
arterial oxygen less than 60 millimeters
of mercury
hypercapnia with partial pressure co2
greater than 50 um but only if you saw
the original so cameron i’m not sure
which is different than the dvd
order so so excuse me what’s up
so it’s my understanding that people
listening to podcasts don’t like to hear
it whenever people are just talking over
each other the whole time
so i’m well we’re saving
time this is well also dj dylan
okay so dj dylan maybe to make this
easier on the listeners can you split
me and london’s audio so one is in one
headphone ear
and one the other is on the other
headphone ear yes i think that would
that would help right
i’d i’d say they can choose which one
they want to listen to
or how it’s supposed to be intended
listen to both at the same time and
learn
both things it’s like speed reading
i i you know what
did your dylan do what you would like
here i yes
i i’m just gonna keep so just pan our
audio into opposite
opposite stereo tracks yes yes yes
yes okay well so i’m just gonna keep
going
and i’m so sorry to our listeners if if
this is problematic for you
so clinically a patient will present
with shortness of breath and possibly
cough
on exam they may be able to speak from
complete
pets.com also remember pets.com
there’s like a big like they may also
have like technical bubbles
and that’s that’s increased like failure
stories respirations
so if you bought anything from there
you’ve definitely been exposed
cyanosis as indicated by the body the
color cn
or blue or they may have impaired
mentation
uh diagnosis can be confirmed via
articulation like a breakfast burrito
analysis which can show hypoxemia
hypercapnia and altered ph
chest can
you will try to keep the oxygen
saturation over ninety percent
uh when it comes to mechanical
ventilation the most important if you
saw a long
poly include using high pressure so
there’s a part of the the very end after
the credits
[Music]
oh sorry karen what’s up
was with some of your because i wasn’t
listening to you because i was busy with
my own
lesson um was one of the things that you
just said
that you know cause you were there
as in like well who are you talking to
talking to people who might have been
exposed so like for example the last one
i was saying
at in theaters at along came polly
years ago when i was in theaters if you
stayed for the after credit sequence
all the way to the end there was an
interactive like
crowd feature where they would like
spray glitter on the audience
that glitter is extremely toxic and
that’s one of the
causes you’re trying to tell our
listeners
about this and you’re sure that that’s a
cause of acute respiratory failure
yes according to the class that i took
wait what what what class did you take
uh
i mean it was online okay so and that’s
your
so that’s not what what was the class
called what do you mean well
it was called it was just you just go to
en.wikipedia.org i’m just doing the
exact same thing you do
and you hit random okay
so so you didn’t take a class you you
found
you went and searched wikipedia for
okay why well i paid someone 1100
an hour so to do what
for the class you like i guess to get
credit
trust me i always think like especially
since most of these classes are online
these days kind of like what am i
exactly am i paying for
i’m paying for a teacher to to grade my
google searches
okay but uh you know sometimes you get
in this
day and age you still got to get a
degree so yeah
okay we we can go ahead and you know
move on from there i guess
[Music]
all right uh so cameron um as you know
we you know we we’ve we’ve lost
more sponsors this year we’ve we hardly
had any this year
honestly compared to the year before
and i can’t help but think that part of
that might be your approach to our
sponsors
well i mean what do you do you even know
what my approach is i feel like you’re
not even
involved in this process really that’s
true it’s mostly what you’ve told me
about the process that makes me think
that that your approach is off well okay
what if i told you about the process
because i don’t really remember most of
that stuff either
your approach you don’t remember it yeah
because i’ve been
i’ve kind of i’ve i i don’t i don’t keep
track of things
i hate to admit that yeah which is it is
kind of your
job to keep track of it so okay so um
for our listeners what cameron does
is he will
go exploring he will call it going
exploring
he will uh go get his
his rattiest clothes which and i don’t
that’s not
like some kind of phrase it’s a clothes
that he says
would most benefit rats would most fit
rats um so they’re very small
and grimy and
are covered in rats well and so he will
put up you know i learned from the
experts and the expert in
this situation would be aladdin also
known as a street rat
who wore rat clothes that’s what that’s
why his clothes didn’t fit him properly
because they were made for rats that’s
your understanding okay so
so in any case so so cameron wears his
i mean even street rat isn’t trying like
it’s just
rat clothes but so he wears his clothes
and then
he goes out uh to well he calls it the
wilderness
it is just the uh sort of there’s a park
nearby he goes to the park yeah and it’s
a mall it’s like a mini mall
yeah well and there’s sort of this uh
closed there’s this grassy area whenever
i say park
it is it is cameron’s right is enclosed
within the mall
there’s this sort of nature area of it
and so he
climbs through digs a hole
and he he constructs what he calls his
nest
um and he you know he keeps stirring it
around
uh bringing in he goes to the different
places near
the different vendors he’ll ask for a
cup of water he’ll bring it back he’ll
pour it
stir up some mud go over there ask for
another cup of water
and maybe gather sticks along the way
yeah
yeah and so cameron will do this
uh fill his you know get get his pit
going
uh and that is that is what he refers to
he says gotta get my pick going
and then um and then he’ll
those sticks that we’re referencing he
builds his
nest as once again as he called it uh
and then he’ll put up a flag this is the
only part he
seems to prepare beforehand is he does
have a flag
and he’ll put that up and the flag has a
you know it’s a banner that reads
uh looking for sponsors and
it’s just a lot of typos well and it’s
the don’t tread on me
snake too yeah yeah so it’s yellow with
the snake
but it says you know looking for
sponsors
yeah and so people will walk by and
cameron will swipe at their legs
as they walk by he’ll he’ll scramble out
sort of like um
like gollum from uh from lord of the
rings
or it’s well cameron doesn’t like the
comparison uh smeagle from lord of the
rings
yes yeah they’re different
i don’t even know if they’ve ever met
but they are i think they’re
cousins right so so cameron will
in a smeagle sort of approach
he’ll he’ll kind of scramble out on all
fours
not even i feel like smeagle has
like more clothes than what i’m wearing
yes yeah
smeagol does wear more but also smeagol
uh will lift him
his torso off the ground which you don’t
bother to do that whenever you crawl
i just no it’s dragging for the most
part
yeah so so you’ll swipe at legs and if
you
catch a leg then you pull them into your
pit
and you you hop into your nest and you
you call yourself king
and whenever if they’re if they ask king
of what
what do you mean and you’re like you
will say king of this nest
look and then they will
be trying to leave and and so this and
that’s the part that you call networking
um and then networking yeah
yeah oh nest yeah that’s right
see i guess it’s one of those things
where like you have a word that you
always
you you have a term that you understand
all the time and then whenever someone
has a slight change to it
you don’t always notice it but yes nest
working does make more sense
in in a way so
so you will do this you will have your
nest
except you’re wrong dr london this is
not what i do
you have my process entirely wrong okay
i don’t the people people’s feet that i
swipe
at and then i pull them into the nest
yeah
those don’t end up being the sponsors is
that where you were about to suggest
yes well like that it was the first step
they call the security guard
and then i pull him in and then i ask
him if he knows
anyone who would be a sponsor
okay so so and that’s all of our
sponsors and most of our guests
come from this process so it’s mostly
security guard at the specific mall
is it the same guy every time it’s their
friends
it’s their friends is it the same guard
i mean it’ll be different guards
depending on the mall the park and the
mall okay
yeah that’s right okay so it’s because i
was gonna say it’s all the same mall
it’s just which park okay on different
sides different days
you know some people only work holidays
yeah
okay so in any case um karen will find
people
uh yes yeah long story short yeah i’ll
find them
um usually fifty dollars for tampering
with the nest
and i’ll find them a hundred and fifty
dollars if they
try to steal any of my sticks yeah which
your fines are just written in mud that
you
write on their faces yeah but i i
i attach to that
their face sort of like a polaroid of
my handgun yeah so i don’t it’s not a
threat as much as it is
um just sort of uh bragging a prod
bragging right yeah just sort of saying
like what i have
i have i can afford a gun yeah
so anyway so this is cameron’s process
so it’s for that reason that i’m
suspicious of a lot of his sponsors and
you know a lot of sponsors he brings on
and it might be why some of them are
suspect it might be why we lose some of
the sponsors as well
so this is an episode dedicated to
those sponsors that we lost and to try
to bring them back
that’s you know we they they might be
a little sus but you know we do love our
sponsors
no matter how sus yes so
how sus they must so in any case
we can um if we want to get going let’s
just play a clip
you know what they must be play a
sponsor
um and we’re going to just you know
make our appeal i guess
[Music]
well and what i love about the the this
new sponsor of ours is that it’s
from a field that we’ve never seen
before we’ve seen
everyone’s heard all these ads for like
you know
domain hosts and you know uh
you know food delivery services or
stamps or whatever but this is the first
of its kind and we are talking about a
new form of time that you can buy
today on this podcast i’m sorry
a new form of what a past time did you
mean
like a newborn are you tired of the
gregorian
calendar where it’s like march september
february are you tired of 24 hours a day
60 minutes an hour 60 seconds a minute
blah blah blah blah blah
that’s the old way dr london the new
form of time that you can learn about
for only 49.99 is a new form of time
called lunchtime that’s right you’re
thinking wait i know about lunch time
that’s the time of day that i eat lunch
and you would be
absolutely right but lunch time as a
time
as a concept is a new
binary form of clock
i so you’re
well it sounds like a confusing product
wait this isn’t
this is a new form aren’t you tired of
looking at the clock and being like 9
22 what does that mean
4 31 huh now
you look at the clock and it either says
lunch time or
not lunch time that’s it those are the
only two things you know
from here on out so
so there’s only one it simplifies
everything
why do we have all these complicated
mechanisms have you ever seen inside of
a clock
and how complicated that is yeah you
know what’s way
more simple than that way more easy to
understand and maybe
maybe isn’t such a you know this kind of
like difficult
entry level for everyone to just figure
out but is actually
intuitive it’s lunchtime it sounds like
basically it either is lunchtime or it
isn’t lunchtime and that my friend
is lunchtime and this is not they do
want to stress this is not a novelty
clock
like one of those clocks that says like
that at right at 5 pm it says quitting
time
or you know fishing time or something
like that that is not
this is it also this is like a clock it
just sounds
more like an alarm almost because it’s
just one time of day
well it does come with a clock but it’s
not like one of those clocks it’s more
like
um is it analog or digital or
oh i would say somewhere in between
those it’s
some it’s somewhat like a um
like it kind of like a it’s like a laser
tag type of set
and you have to wear you’ve got to wear
like your chest and your belt pieces all
the time
kind of like you do when you’re playing
laser tag and then it’ll zap you and
it’ll say launch time
so that sounds like a like a more i
guess annoying alarm but it still sounds
like an alarm
it’s not an alarm at all it’s a it’s a
true reconceptualizing of time
itself and for 49.99 not only
do you get the laser tag clock set but
you also get
books on how to retrain your brain to
learn
about this new form of time that’s so
much simpler that’s going to save you
so much time it comes with training
courses
it comes with a video series blu-ray
discs
even you could there’s even an option
for extensive surgery dr
london surgery based on
lunch time it’s taking the part of your
brain
that thinks in time in in 60 second
increments
and changes it towards uh thinking in
more of a binary simplified
version it either is lunchtime or is not
lunchtime
uh well i mean if they’re paying you
know 50
and they’re getting books and training
videos and things then that
you know that that does sound like it
could be at least
new knowledge so that’s okay that’s
something
and i think what’s great about this is
you know you’re gonna end up saving so
much
time because you in in normal life how
much time do you
how many times a day do you think about
the damn clock
you’re like about the clock oh it’s 4 35
i guess it’s 25 minutes till the end of
work
then i go home at five o’clock and my
commute is gonna be
45 minutes long yes but maybe i can have
dinner by
six if i get home and put it on there’s
my food on the pot for 15 minutes blah
blah blah
you know what this new world looks like
dr london oh hey it’s not lunch time
i’m gonna go home it’s gonna it’s gonna
take i mean probably a lunch times
amount
of time to get over there well and then
hopefully when i get home because i’m
pretty hungry hopefully
my clock changes to lunch time so i can
finally eat
so it’s so you’re you’re waiting a lunch
times amount so there is
a a measured amount of time in there
it’s not just a
anyway i it sounds
you know hopefully it sounds like people
will be getting
a physical product whenever they pay so
that’s
yes they will that that is a step up
from some of
our previous advertisers but what
they’re really getting is a change in
lifestyle
all right well thank you and what was
the name of lunchtime oh
lunch it’s lunchtime all right
thank you to lunch time
[Music]
all right so that was our sponsor lunch
time
and and what
the body modification specifically the
specifically the brain surgery that
they ran into a lot of ethical issues um
i don’t want to disparage them because
of course we want them back
but i do just want to be honest with our
listeners
and say that you know whenever they
referred to the body surgery
the body modifications it was brain
surgery
to disrupt one’s perception of time
and we didn’t address that in the ad in
part because
i didn’t want it to reflect so poorly
what if what if my assumptions or
understanding of it
were wrong well and because we started
to explain it but
the section that i had recorded was too
loud
so we had to take it out it was hurting
people’s ears yeah yeah well because you
were yelling
yeah i mean you were you were saying
like they’re trying to take over
your brain well yeah because i wanted
people to know
yeah it was just too loud so we had to
take it out
any case so yeah so so they
they have run into some funding issues
which
you know that might be cameron why they
stopped sponsoring like i thought it
could be
something about your management style
but you know perhaps it is
it was solely because of their their
ethical
problems and their the botched surgeries
that
yeah i don’t know why this is being
blamed on me so
suddenly yeah i just it’s one of those
things where
just there’s a history of our sponsors
being
like you trying to get rid of them it
seems
and this it seems like that was not the
case today it seems like really
okay you’re the type of person to hold
someone’s history against them you don’t
you don’t believe and forgive and forget
huh when you’re in business with someone
and
you know they’re for forgetting ah
i okay nope forgetting will result
nothing more to say that’s uh you see
this as a business
relationship oh yeah what i get it what
did you see it as no
nothing not just the you know the kind
of person who
anytime you have a nightmare and you
need someone to
read you a bedtime story to go back to
sleep you know you call me but
you know i didn’t realize you do that
with business associates
okay well because that is you know to be
fair
just so it’s out there like that is a
business of that’s a side hustle of
yours
well yeah having people call you to have
a book read
yeah well you only have three books
correct
well yeah so yeah clockwork orange
um jurassic park um
and a million little pieces which is the
oprah
book that was a lie from that guy
right so i’ll you know it’ll be the most
i’m i’m just thinking in the middle of
the night whenever i wake up from a
nightmare
what’s the what will come and hillbilly
elegy
okay oh you added a new one okay yep
well okay so i saw the trailer for that
movie and was like oh i have to
get it well you know i guess you know
to our listeners this this is another
spa
well it’s not a sponsor but here’s a
free advertisement cameron does this
business
middle of the night you have a scary
dream you can call him up
he will bill your insurance so just go
straight to your insurance so you don’t
even have to worry about payment or
anything
yeah because because as you emphatically
argued in congress
this is a medical procedure
yeah all right um anyway do you want to
do you want to move on to the next clip
sure all right as long as you
acknowledge
that them leaving was not my fault
if anything it was dj dylan’s fault
nope and look at look at dj dylan’s face
and you try to accuse him
of something being his fault impossible
you can’t nope
the thought hurt whenever it tried to
happen for a second yep
but yeah let’s let’s go ahead and move
on to the next one
[Music]
this is a dating app specifically for
mediums
it’s called medium meetup okay and to
clarify this isn’t like
the size of clothing they wear
i actually don’t know that okay because
i haven’t asked the clothing size of our
of the people on the side okay but the
this is for people whose
profession is a medium people who who
speak to the dead people who
who can access the spiritual realm right
and speak to people who have passed and
fortune tellers psychics so it seems
like
okay so this is specifically for
mediums to meet other mediums yes and
i guess that that would be a big thing
for them to have in common
okay and one of the one of the coolest
things about this
new dating site is what would you guess
the
the url of this site would be
mediummeetups.com
no wrong okay try again
medium meetups app.com
medium meetups okay dr london you’re
already
wrong because it’s not a url at all
no it’s a state of mind because these
are mediums right they can they can
access the spiritual realm they can
speak to people on the other side but
they also
can communicate without speaking sure
just like i was doing earlier to you
when i was describing the after dark
after dark concept and because i wasn’t
immediate i feel like you’re confusing
the term psychic with medium
for once so you’re you weren’t a medium
yeah you also weren’t as psychic you
couldn’t because
a psychic that’s that’s the classic idea
where it’s someone who can push
you know thoughts or feelings or
whatever into someone else’s mind
whereas a medium is like you said
communicating with the dead
unless you think that one of us is dead
then that i can’t guarantee
that on either of our parts okay
okay so anyway so they these these
mediums
yup communicate they use the app
there’s no app they use the
there’s no website they use their powers
to communicate with each other and then
say hey we should go to like
i mean do you like dominoes or pizza hut
well i’m you know i was raised
with pizza hut so i guess that’s what i
prefer but
you know it doesn’t really bother me as
long as it’s not papa john’s he’s like
well actually i like papa john’s i would
say that’s maybe my favorite
why do they why do they need medium meat
up at all it sounds like they
this is just how they communicate anyway
basically
what it does is it uh you pay for the
service
and it gives you a secret code so then
in
their spiritual world or wherever you
know you’re hearing all these different
voices
they’re able to just zone in on the
secret code okay that’s someone else
using
the the site and it’s not a site
nope so is there one person who’s just
one medium
who is creating this code and
pushing that thought out there or is
there a dead person doing
that’s what i’m to get the code you do
have to download an app
okay so there’s one part that’s that’s
an
actual physical thing when it’s like a
series of apps
okay because you have to download the
medium store
first the medium play store that allows
you to
access all the apps in the store and
then from there you’ve got to download
the
media meetup code generating app
and then you just use that app
yeah so it’s really just two okay well
it’s
it sounds and then it gives you it
generates a code and then you just think
about that code really hard
and then other people start popping up
on your little grid or whatever
yeah okay well admittedly i you know
i’m would not i’m not i wouldn’t claim
to be a medium
so i can’t really speak to how this
technology would affect
a medium so with that in mind i guess
we can just be thankful that they chose
to sponsor through us because i guess
maybe some of our listeners are mediums
and this is a great way to
yeah to reach i have to think a huge
part of relationship
is mediums yeah primarily children
yeah okay yeah well you know that’s
right sixth sense
yeah yeah i guess that
he seemed like more of an exception
maybe but maybe that’s just normal
yeah once again i don’t know enough
about this to speak to it okay
yeah no that’s no one was questioning
that okay dr london
all right well i guess people might not
believe in ghosts but they at least
believe in your incompetence
okay well um okay anything else on the
ad copy for media meetups
um it says to not
look up the ceo it says don’t google him
okay i so tourist and his name has been
blacked out so i can’t
but it says like don’t look into the
company don’t investigate it too much
don’t think about it too hard just
download the apps
that’s that says in huge letters okay so
that’s an old cat okay
well tour listeners please you know
follow that it sounds like you wouldn’t
need to look it up to if you’re a medium
i’m sure you’re already
maybe tertiary like have some awareness
of this app
so um thank you for the to our sponsor
so that was you know a great sponsor
they were very kind to
to join an advertise on our podcast
what so it seemed odd to me at the time
that they chose us because
i mean cameron you don’t have any
history of being a medium correct uh
i mean i definitely was when i was
uh you know maybe a little bit a little
bit lighter
you know i if i lost a few pounds i
could probably go back to being a medium
yes okay well this is that’s the same
joke that i made in the clip that we
just heard
yes yeah yeah and well the joke that i
made for
any case but yes um
that’s that’s not the the issue to which
i was referring
uh but the you know people who can speak
with the dead
so i’m wondering
well first of all and this is really to
our listeners i guess
who looked up the ceo who who looked up
all the details in this company because
we
got blowback yeah and
and it’s it’s it’s just frustrating
because like there’s one condition
one condition don’t look it up
we told y’all we tried to warn y’all
the second you did it your ip address
was tracked
they knew it came straight from this
podcast
and like london said they blew out our
backs
they while while we were sleeping in the
middle of the night they took baseball
bats
they beat our spines up and now my back
is
killing me dr london yeah and mine feels
great now i think they hit it just the
right way
yeah very frustrating that they that
they broke in to do that because i did
have to
i’d have to replace the lock but like i
i i’m thinking about replacing the locks
anyway okay well i’m permanently injured
but sure
yeah i’m sorry about your locks uh
i accept your apology so
anyway to our listeners uh
the other issue that came about not just
the um
physical uh beatings is that now cameron
and i are both haunted
and uh so that i
could not speak to the dead before
now i don’t just to make a point
but they do speak to me now um
i don’t know cameron have you had the
same issue because it seems like
deliberate them setting
something on me yeah i mean
how can i put this the the reason you
have this ability is also the same
reason i don’t it was kind of a trade
you feel me wait so i thought it was
just a punishment
for uh our listeners looking up
the company details it was it was a
punishment
on the person who looked at the
company’s details
and then that person um maybe
sort of passed it to you
in your cereal cameron were you the one
who looked up the company details
like was this you there it’s impossible
to know
you you allowed me to
admonish our listeners whenever you were
guilty of the crime
and again it’s impo it’s impossible to
know
fully because of
um sort of the way
you know glue global warming has
affected all of us in different ways
you know yeah so
okay well you know long story short
there
now uh my great aunt who like i
i didn’t know i i don’t have a reason to
know like i
we didn’t like even that side of the
family or that part of the family didn’t
really
talk as much so like i have no reason to
talk to this person
but now she’s scaring you up yeah she is
she asking you for stuff or is it just
like to chitchat
it’s it’s mostly it’s it’s the worst
option which is chit chat she’ll
she’ll pop up and be like what’s that
about my phone
i’ll have to explain to her technology
and she’s like well i don’t understand
and i’m like well then i why are you
ghostly appearing here because i have to
re-explain
it every time yeah she and so it’s not
like there’s unfinished business
it’s mostly just to be just to ask about
what’s going on in the world yeah
and like she she has such a terrible
memory that like
she every time you explain it to her she
comes back again and is like
so what is that and you’re like yeah
it’s a phone
still i don’t who is sercia ronan
am i supposed to know who that is
yeah and then anyway
just so so anyway
to the sponsor thank you for sponsoring
us we want you back
um i don’t maybe i can put more parental
controls on
cameron’s web searches there are already
controls in place
but i guess we can put more not on the
search engine that i’m using
you have not heard it you’re too old
just for us kids no adults allowed
is this the engine you have running out
back
the because i have heard that one
but i i said no adults allowed so why
you’re not supposed to know about it
well it’s it’s a very loud machine no
that’s not fair i said no adults allowed
go away okay we can we can go onto our
you know the next these sponsors that
you know once again we’re just trying
trying to win these guys back by giving
a little free ad space
and then hopefully hopefully coax them
in
[Music]
all right what’s the sponsor
toes just says toes
you might just be looking at your own
toes because they’re on your mind right
now no no no it’s an email here look at
my phone it’s
that’s an email it says sponsor toes
and look there’s the payment yeah huh
all right all right well thank you to
our sponsor well
let’s let’s you know pump it up a little
toes are great
um yeah no i use them every day again
they they paid us
and i don’t know who this is but we do
want them to be happy yeah you know
a happy sponsor so toes you got 10 of
them um
maybe a couple more maybe a couple less
yeah depending
help you stand um you can pick things up
with them
i can’t obviously because of the yeah
the odd shape and
but but you’re an exception like that
generally most people can yeah yeah
and i understand that yeah um animals
have toes
animals have toes super cute cats have
you know little toes and stuff
yeah all right that’s it all right thank
you to our sponsor
toes okay
so i i didn’t even want to do to to
cover the sponsor just because of
just how much blowback we’ve had
i it’s yeah well i don’t think either of
us
knew how powerful the tow lobby was
um first of all there’s a finger lobby
didn’t know that either
i didn’t know there was a toe lob i
didn’t know any of this um
so so there is a movement apparently and
we don’t we we pointedly avoid getting
into politics
but the toe movement
i don’t know if you’ve heard of all the
the rioting the fire is eluding
it’s all highly associated with the toe
movement and
it’s sort of these uh
i don’t i don’t know how you call it
except for maybe like toe enthusiasts
and they’re they’re violently
enthusiastic you know
about toes you know people think that
they might be
protesting something or or something
like that no it’s just they’re so
excited about it that they kind of go
out of control
some of them and you’ll you can see you
can’t tell all of them
like at a glance you can’t necessarily
tell who that they are toe
enthusiasts but some of them will be
holding a severed toe
this is rare but i’ve seen it there’s a
video footage of one
uh i think you just look up toe
enthusiast
um severed on on youtube whatever
and you know there’s a point
oh no i’m not i’m looking now you’re
gonna have to be more specific because
there’s so many of these videos
yeah i’m i’m trying to think of even
well i mean the one i’m thinking of
it had an instagram model
and she like she was going on about
why she loves toes and it
and to clarify this isn’t like a fetish
thing this isn’t people who
you know are kind of turned on by toes
or any of that
these are no this is a pull these are
just people who
are think toes are really valuable which
we all do yeah oh
i love it yeah toes are great maybe but
maybe to somewhat of an extreme degree
yeah well
the amount of people talk about you know
this
uh just the numbers from this the
pandemic
and everything else and how you know
just it’s it’s very sad
how many passed away but like the amount
of violent
toe enthusiast related assaults
and it hasn’t abated with any
of the the the events of the last year
it has been steady and once again we
didn’t know this when we ran the ad
we had no we didn’t know this but we do
i mean we do want to apologize
yes i am so sorry both to our listeners
um and also to the tow lobby because
ultimately we do want them as a sponsor
again
yeah and that’s and that’s the
frustrating part is that we are we are
walking the line here where we say
it’s irresponsible to be supporting
such a um such a movement that has such
just very strong ties to extremism
um we we don’t want that but we also
want the sponsor we
like we want to generate revenue we need
the sponsorship yeah we need the money
from the
money would be really i need the money
from the sponsorship and
i love toes like not again not in the
fetish way but just
and not not to help the staff a
non-violent or weird
not a toe enthusiast way
no but no i i like i
said in that sponsorship and i meant it
by the way i do use my toes every day
like that’s it’s a part of me yeah and i
think that’s
that’s pretty dang cool and i’m sorry if
that upsets some people
and it will and i i know i recognize
that there’s no way to just
to to say this and sound unbiased and
sound like
you know politically unaffiliated and
religiously unaffiliated
like i know i recognize that there are
there are
existing uh norms and trends
but just as i’m tr i’m trying to to make
the point clear on my part that i don’t
you know
i i value inclusivity i i recognize the
validity of people
regardless of the toe i you know maybe
we
maybe we should move on from there i
feel like we’ve covered it
yeah we got to stop talking about the
toe
cameron do we have a sponsor today that
is right dr london i actually
am very very excited about this sponsor
i’m always excited about our sponsors of
course but
this i mean this is incredible
technology
are you excited to hear about it yeah
yeah i’m you know we’re always trying to
be on sort of the cutting edge
you know both with our medical knowledge
but also with
uh yeah any sort of technological front
especially with telemedicine
well this is not the telemedicine
company so
maybe this could be something that you
could use to i don’t know impress some
of your patients this is actually a
clothing
company that we’re working with and this
they’ve invented something here which is
incredible which
i’m sure you’ve seen people who have um
you know kind of t-shirts and they might
have like sort of different light up
displays on them
or you’ve seen like uh maybe a
holographic looking kind of image on
this shirt
this company they’ve been able to put
full i mean full huge gifts
moving images on t-shirts
isn’t that i mean that’s amazing right
oh well like uh i guess so like
i would assume like what’s your what’s
your favorite gift dr lennon is there a
gift that you see on the internet every
once in a while
yeah i think it’s uh i think it’s from
like an infomercial
a guy who’s holding a bunch of stuff and
then he trips
yeah i know he drops everything yeah you
could put that on a shirt
or i have one where a guy he’s like
eating something and then he gives a
thumbs up i think that one’s hilarious
and you’ve got mail oh wait hold on i
just got an email from
the company they
they said okay they’re
still working on the feature to have
custom gifts like that
but currently you can choose from the
gifts that they self-select
okay okay that’s cool so for right now
you can’t you can’t upload your own
gifts but
the company i’m i’m sure has like some
awesome
uh little you know looping funny images
and and different
animations and who knows who maybe
spongebob is on there i i don’t know
who knows that you’ve got mail okay it
says
no spongebob no spider-man no
no characters of any kind well that’s
specific but like so like
the one i mentioned might have yeah or
maybe it was something like that
maybe it’s just to give someone giving a
thumbs up or or
smiling you’ve got mail oh wait hold on
no i got another email that says no
nothing like that
actually we’ve only been able to get one
gift to work
so far and it’s of a rat giving birth
okay so really
it’s not so much a like a gift
shirt as it is a gift of a
rat giving birth shirt yeah i get
it’s well i mean it is a gift shirt
it’s just the only gift that can exist
on it you’ve got
mail one oh he sent it over oh
that is man that’s yeah
there’s a lot of blood for one thing and
it
mixed with the so i guess i mean we dr
lynn we cannot lose the sponsor we can’t
be
like grossed out or rude about it yeah
you were telling me
like this is our best sponsor so far
just in terms of communication
and how sort of excited
both parties were to to have them on the
podcast in an email
rather than like a like a series of
toilet paper
rolls is huge that’s
brand new for well for you uh
so okay if you want a cool piece of
technology and you want to you know
where to school
or you know you know where to your job
or dr london where to your hospital or
whatever
if you want to wear a cool moving shirt
of a a rat giving live birth
um well i guess mostly live birth i
don’t
that one’s not moving oh man
okay and also if you want to wear a
shirt
what’s the name we’re at giving birth
and maybe having
like a partial miscarriage then you just
want to contact
our sponsor deadratshirt.com
okay so so they bought the appropriate
url well no this the weird thing is is
that it’s called
dead rat shirt and this is the opposite
of death it’s them
giving life i guess it’s ironic in that
way it’s
it’s not the complete opposite because
it’s
all mixed in there isn’t it of what’s
being birthed i mean i guess that’s kind
of beautiful
it’s life and death sort of you know yin
and yang
kind of all tangled in there i
i guess there’s there’s some poetry
in there i’m sure this gif has looped
once it’s just been playing this whole
time for like 10 minutes
i feel like if they can fit this on a
shirt they should be able to fit the guy
giving a thumbs up or whatever
right i would think so i you know i
don’t
i’ve been critical of sponsors before
and then we lose i don’t know the tech
well anyway uh yeah dead
deadrattshirts.com um just go there get
your shirt
and um wear it to school you know i’m
sorry uh
just for the listeners because i’m not
positive about the situation but
so the shirt came over on a person
like someone’s wearing it and it looks
blocky and i’m wondering if it’s
like if there’s just a screen cut out
anyway oh you think the person that they
came over to demo it just had like a tv
under the shirt like because it looks
like sort of a teletubby attempt
like that style of having a belly yeah
but like
it looks really boxy
yeah it looks messed up is what it looks
like yeah and that’s no offense to you
sir
that we’re just describing the the
product which i guess
as you present it all right
thanks okay so anyway i guess
but um we don’t want to lose our
sponsors so
no this is if this is the sort of
apparel that you preferred to wear
then sure our listeners uh what was the
name of that website again
deadratshirt.com use the promo code
the the red is giving birth
all right so um first off
uh that that was actually i really like
that sponsor
um as we said in the ad it you know they
were they were great they communicated
well
uh i actually yeah i don’t know why the
sponsor dropped us no one’s told me
what did i do did i what did i do wrong
dr london cause i like them too
see here’s the thing
the sponsor do you remember
jeff how the guy who the demo guy who
was
showing it yeah i remember jeff i
invited jeff to my wedding for
god i know i know but
then you had a you had a falling out if
i remember right
because he ruined your wedding and
that’s why you’re not married right
yes yeah we had a bit of a falling out
and you know he was saying that the best
popsicle flavor is cherry and i was
saying that’s ridiculous
that just tastes like medicine it’s got
to be grape
and then but then of course my wife to
be agreed with him
and this is during the best man speech
well i mean this started before the
ceremony and went all the way
to the uh best man speech which usually
happens at the reception
after the ceremony yeah but well you had
an unconventional wedding
yeah it was on a it was on a uh like a
an aircraft carrier yeah so it was super
unconventional yeah
yeah on like a tuesday afternoon but as
i remember it was at 8am
and so it was yeah but that’s afternoon
somewhere
right so yeah so anyway we’re all on
this aircraft carrier
jeff is there uh you know and
of course the pressure’s on because well
as i recall the reason you said why he
needed to do his speech
early was because you needed
like someone to kind of copy a little
bit for your vows
yeah you just needed some speech
material well then i needed someone to
drive the aircraft carrier
right and so i was thinking it assumed
i was thinking if he could do the speech
now then
during the reception afterwards we could
make sure someone’s maintaining the
aircraft carrier it’s not just like left
alone this is a big boat
yeah i mean those things are gigantic i
was very surprised that you
you know got permission that you got an
aircraft carrier yeah
and that they just gave us the keys and
they said you know make sure someone is
is driving this thing yeah because they
were actually pretty
the admiral was very emphatic that he
was unwilling and he sounded scared he
said
unwilling to leave any of his personnel
on board
i you know i don’t think i think that
guy
like has never actually captained a ship
i think it was i thought it was like the
whole time it was maybe like a fraud
thing like he was pretending to be
a like a captain guy you know what i
mean
yeah well so what i thought was that
maybe the ship was haunted and i don’t
know if that’s because
i’m something of a medium now but
he that might be it i just know i asked
him just because i was trying to test
him
i asked him like what’s a sale and all
he did was go
sail like that song
well is that not the answer he went sale
is that the wrong answer
i guess it’s not a wrong answer but it’s
definitely not the answer i was looking
for
well and okay it was another strange
part was that that aircraft carrier did
have sails so which normally
these you know these giant ships uh do
not
they like they’re they’re powered by
engines not
yeah well but this was a green yeah
aircraft very
very climate friendly so anyway
um so so jeff uh the
the demo model i i just
so do i so okay but okay so
because basically he stole my wife
that’s why we lost them as a sponsor
what am i supposed to do about that
i i’m and it’s
honestly i feel bad having to say it
like you know on the podcast or
whatever but like eventually
you will have to move on you mean
i’m gonna finally have to move off of
the aircraft carrier because i haven’t
left
since no well i mean that that fateful
day
no like yeah you’re gonna have to you’re
gonna have to
i mean there there are some there were
smaller boats on there
like there’s a way for you to get off
right uh i
i haven’t checked don’t know i know
you’ve been caught up with
you know uh driving around and trying to
make big waves with it
um you know catching people in your wake
and yeah whatever well then all the the
news
i’ve been reading the news so i’ve been
busy with that too
yeah yeah so but but
regarding jeff i’m not he and i still
keep in touch he and i are great
he’s he’ll he’ll tell me pretty
specifically his problems with you
um and then you can why does he still
have problems with me i didn’t do
anything he showed up to my wedding made
a huge
deal about the popsicle thing out of
nowhere
stole my fiance and then
ripped the sponsor out from under me
well she
is his fiancee now um okay sorry his
wife his wife now
he he stole my fiance and made her
his wife yeah so what what am i supposed
to do am i supposed to apologize for
that
yes so so they’ll facetime me sometimes
and like what does he have to talk about
he has to he has stuff to complain about
admittedly it’s more it seems like she’s
kind of feeding him stuff
like he doesn’t seem to want to there to
be a problem
but she she keeps like
like you can hear it on the video she’s
like
behind every yeah because behind every
everything a man is saying is a woman
being a huge
[ __ ] because he keeps emphasizing
i grant it once again i don’t know
because because if he’s holding back
business then surely she can’t control
all of that
i don’t know i maybe and i once again
carry
i don’t want to be it’s weird to do this
on the podcast but
you know maybe consider that she wasn’t
the best
choice for you
well then who was dr london i
i don’t know if you found her yet you
know um in case
jeff seems super happy with the
arrangement honestly
like jeff is doing great uh yeah
i mean i guess as long as he’s happy
right like yeah i went to their wedding
it was so fun oh man
oh and you you were there right they
they hired you to uh
to to be well what they to serve
to be a footstool for them yeah
i was the the stool boy
which is a new wedding tradition and i
kind of like it it seems
kind of funny it’s one of those
traditions it’s one you know it’s kind
of like
um a few years ago when when saying that
you know throwing shade kind of
kind of came around but that’s really
like an old-timey term that just made
its way back
it’s sort of the same thing this is
actually a tradition from thousands of
years ago that sort of uh
popped back up and become kind of trendy
lately and you got to be opposed
to take the you take the ex fiance
of a person who’s been engaged twice and
um
you have to be like their their
footstool and
yeah so what a privilege for you to be a
part of that wow
yeah it was great and um um you know
it’s just an
honor to be part of the wedding party
yeah and they well
to to be like geographically you were
there
yes you were part in the sense of being
there but like you were kicked a lot
and stepped on and that was mostly your
role
and then if you tried to respond or say
like stop it
you know they would inform you that no
that that goes against tradition
well yeah but i mean that’s my fault for
not knowing tradition
because that was a stupid little
footstool who never got anything right
yeah well okay you’re quoting directly
from your lines
yeah so anyway all right so so our next
clip we actually that that’s all the
sponsors that we really
that we had to try to get back there
might have been
some other one i think there was maybe
one other sponsor this year but that
that company was destroyed uh
so so we did want to cover
um you know we’ve been doing all these
chores we started this chore wheel
over the summer and since we started
doing that
you know we’ve had the mayor reach out
to us we’ve had
uh different like the the city the
government we’ve had all these different
um you know independent charities reach
out we’ve been getting a lot of stuff
done i’m proud of it honestly dr london
but but sometimes we
you know whenever we try to do one of
these
what we call them chores really
sometimes they are just straight up
charity work
uh one of the ones that we did
i think will require commentary
now just to put in the right context for
the world that has
aged since since that was released if
that makes sense
so um so anyway without further ado
here is the uh the chore wheel um
where we where we did a movie review
um we the all of us here today i i don’t
even have to ask i assume that we’ve all
seen the movie that every single person
in the world
is talking about yeah splanter’s choice
splanter’s choice
and every single person is screaming
about how genius this movie is and how
how the cinematography
is so magical and so fluid
and how bronty chauncers was the
greatest actor in the world
and he should win well sorry sorry sorry
go on and that uh that everything about
it is genius and you know what
frankly i have to agree
sponsor’s choice it’s an incredible film
yes everything about it mesmerized me i
mean the part
where the mountain actually was a hole
and everyone was just looking at it
upside down
and then once they realized it it caused
them to fall and then splanter said
that part cracked me up but then also
made me think
i thought about that for days
yeah no no that’s a good take that’s a
good take cameron um
and that’s well thought out but i guess
if you’re looking at movies with the
critical eye
which is kind of just how i view
everything here we go again
yeah so splandre’s choice
maybe not the movie for everyone is is
what i thought
so split it’s not for pretentious
doctors is that what you’re about to say
i look i don’t mean to have these
opinions just
when i watched it i thought what i
thought so
the main character splaunter first of
all
not this actor’s best work uh oh yeah
then what is
to tell me what is what has he done
better
uh what is braunsch chonker since done
better
transtonia you remember transtonia
okay that’s fair yeah that was from a
different
time before we had 4d
screenings but sure yeah that’s fine
i’ll agree
that that movie definitely trans tony i
mean
i have to respect i have to respect it
for at least putting
i mean floppy flashers on the map
yeah so so anyway so in splonter’s
choice
the issue that i had with there came a
point in the movie and i don’t want to
spoil anything but
splanter did have to make that choice
and it was tough yeah it was tough
the fact that a full 10 minutes of the
movie
full 10 minutes was just him reading a
book on the subject
to make sure he made the right choice
and just
it was multiple camera angles that’s
called character development are you
kidding me
how are you going to establish that he’s
making the choice
that’s actually informed if you don’t
spend time establishing that i mean
most movies will do a montage but there
was also no music
there was nothing it was just splanter
reading book and i’m sorry you know what
it’s instead of a soundtrack it was just
the sounds of a baby crying
which i thought was genius how
subversive and and
crazy is that yeah which no mention of
children
in the movie besides that sound like
there’s no wrestling
implied that they’re off screen dr
london
okay so sorry uh dr boudreau
um well this is this is this is dino go
to brunch all over again and you just
you hated dyno go to brunch because you
said there wasn’t enough brunch and you
said it was too late in the day for
brunch that’s right which is insane you
know that brunch can go to 4 p.m
lots of restaurants offer it till 4 p.m
not in the country that it was
oh my god i’ll maintain that
can i please hear hear your thoughts on
this film um
well the movie
i i wish you would have known how much i
i don’t enjoy
dramas uh before you asked me to watch
this movie
i mean sure sure there was that moment
with splanter and uh
you know the pie and that was great uh
but bronte
chancers is absolutely uh no will
ferrell
no i mean uh the whole
the whole movie i’m waiting for frank to
the tank to show up
and instead um the mountain’s a whole
and uh you know we’re reading for 10
minutes
and it you know for 10 minutes without a
laugh
that is uh you know the um
what is that the laugh to cry um
ratio yeah it wasn’t good
it wasn’t good but i will say
it was beautiful
that cinematography was breathtaking
and you know i mean if we go to joseph
campbell we take a look at the hero with
the thousand
faces you got it with splanter his
choice
it was an epic choice and major
ramifications the mountains a whole
that was a twist i didn’t expect to see
um the pie
i tell you tell me you laughed at the
pie right i laughed at the pie
we all laughing i mean i’m a human
who laughs and sometimes
check out the pie and splanter’s choice
don’t besmirch the name of america’s
greatest comedian
um i’m really sorry about that that’s
okay
um but i mean i was happy
that i branched out and saw something
that wasn’t the three movies
that i’ve watched pretty much every day
for the last uh
five years so that was nice
so thank you gentlemen for uh you know
teaching this old dog a new trick okay
all right there it is yeah
the trick being to to watch and watch
something different yeah
yeah usually yeah my my genre
of comedy great comedy films
the lenny bruce
yeah the lenny bruce stand up special
here’s my here’s here it is this is the
trinity of comedy to me
the lenny bruce stand up special muppets
take manhattan
old school into old school
okay wow so that’s that’s done then
we finished that chore for for this week
at least
all right so yeah so that was that was
the
the movie review which um you know
splonter’s choice
uh is nominated for how many awards
um uh i mean
i think every category i think every
category yeah
uh but then you know and first four in
short which uh
it only it it only well it won it but
like on a technicality because
it shouldn’t have it didn’t technically
meet the parameters but
but they you know the filmmakers really
pushed for it
it was i mean you our listeners would
have would have read about it in the
news
but um when they petition congress
so the the problem turned out to be
that the actor who played splanter and
sponsors choice
did some things
and i you know to to to
treat a a movie review like a light
thing
normally is fine but there was just too
much with this
you know it’s it’s like when any actor
gets canceled
uh bronte john cersens
um go ahead i i can’t
i don’t want to like i have difficulty
comprehending what he did honestly
so you want me to yeah if you would i
just
i mean um so
uh i mean what’s the point of even
talking about when everyone knows
he stole the statue of liberty yeah and
that’s he divided it up
and uh gave it to the least free
countries by capita
wow um
and he live he live streamed the whole
thing
part of me wants to think that he didn’t
recognize the the importance of the
statue
or the statement that he was inherently
made
no you’re just giving him a you’re
giving him an out
yeah well well so that is what i thought
until he went
on to numerous talk shows and
said i have your freedom now
it belongs to the unfree
and that’s not some courteous thing
that’s not me
saying i’m still quoting him here that’s
not me
saying that i want them that freedom
that is me saying
your freedom is gone this is how i cage
it
and then end quote i pointed to a pick
of
nick cage just as i guess a joke
i guess he thought that would lighten
the mood a bit from uh
which it did yeah people laughed a lot
of people laughed and
but that only made it more uncomfortable
after the laughter stopped
yeah after like 45 minutes when when
they finally stopped laughing it
because it was it was just a very well
timed joke which
once again you’re you’re you’re so
i i don’t you’re mad because
you recognize this actor is so so
talented
and then they just throw away the statue
of liberty
yep and it
and we’ve all we especially i mean dr
london
as our profiles have risen
recently uh you know there is sort of a
temptation as a celebrity you have
access to things that you know a normal
person isn’t going to have access to
yeah and i want to say right now you
know
as you and i rise well me more than you
as we rise up with the popularity of
this podcast
um i’m not going to give in to all that
i’m not going to give in to all the
celebrity stuff
i never would ex that would be shocking
if you did i would i would could not
even anticipate such a thing
yes you’re a professional yeah and my
focus is on medicine it’s it’s the it’s
the life-saving work
and uh annie and i i want to make it
clear now
you know just just to dispel any any
other
thought it takes my full concentration
to do what i do i i couldn’t
you know go and hang out with all these
whatever celebrities like i’m i’m so
focused on right if you were partying
with all the celebs and the movie stars
and pop stars and
and you know the dust twins and all
these people then
you you wouldn’t have time to really
focus on medicine you’re not that kind
of guy
and this that’s why you that’s why there
should be more
famous people like you dr london who are
humble
and stay out of that hollywood lifestyle
yeah i don’t want to
you know claim anything or push myself
up to be something i’m
not but like i’m just i’m just a person
trying to make their way through
life and any case
so so i just you know just to say you
know i’m
we don’t want to be
like a bronte johnsterson type
i guess just because we have access to
these new fancy helicopters that can
grab giant statues doesn’t mean that
we’re headed to
brazil to steal that giant jesus statue
these
these helicopters are standard issue
like this is just what you can get
like it’s not this is yeah it’s not
anything special at all it’s just we
have the same helicopters that any one
of our stature is going to have
and uh we make we’re going to make that
pledge to you
our audience today yes
that we will not be stealing the money
lisa or the eiffel tower or any of these
these monuments of pisa no
no we’re not going to touch it and i do
want to clarify the helicopter thing we
would have had to pay more
to make it unable to lift statues
that’s that’s what i mean oh yeah
for sure like you would have to really
significantly
you’d have to have a mechanic crawl in
there and power it down
it’s like how sometimes the
like getting a car
can also you know the ability to run
over people is built into the car
there’s nothing you can do about that
i do well but that’s not why you’re
buying it
you’re buying it because you’re trying
to go to the grocery store that’s why
you buy the car yeah
or a tank or whatever but the function
of being able to run over people
is is built in unfortunately i wish it
wasn’t but there’s nothing you can do
about it and it would cost
more to to try to undo that yeah
so anyway just just our promise to you
as a podcast to our listeners
you know just only because you know
this actor displayed such such
irresponsible behavior with his platform
and um we just want to distinguish
ourselves from that
and say you know we won’t give in to the
celebrity status stuff we
we’re just focused on you the listener
and that’s right anything else will be
uh and i’ll say it now it if i did
anything else it would be a distraction
and it would be an unethical distraction
i
you could try me by an ethical committee
and they would find
issue with that like legally
as well so anyway
um so that uh i guess that finishes up
kind of all we were going to do you know
we’re in this we’re in this holiday
season but we wanted to squeeze in
this chance to just uh you know reach
out to these sponsors and
follow up with this uh this one chore
wheel we’ve heard back up from a lot of
these tour wheels and maybe we’ll start
to bring those out a little bit more
uh where we you know there’s there’s
just follow-up
that we could do because there were so
many um
where where the various mayors and
uh continental congresses where they’ve
all thanked us
or things have gotten worse anyway
a number of things but any case we’re
we’re finished with this one i think
cameron i think we’re we’re good we got
everything we need so i mean
you’re not gonna fire me right i still
have a job
uh that’s something that i can’t
what what makes you ask that i guess
would be the
well this whole session was chastising
me for losing
sponsors and and not being able to
predict
a man being cancelled so i’m just
wondering am i i mean am i am i
am i okay well
and no no i know that i said that you
you have to
to let your wife go you have to move on
but if you can somehow
work that relationship into
us having that sponsor back
i that that would do you see what i’m
getting at here like just
just i gotta i gotta get the sponsor
back or i’m gonna lose my job
yes and you already have it in
it’s not even you know it’s not even
guesswork it’s like you already
you’re already familiar uh i and i wanna
i’m pretty hands off you know
you take care of the sponsor stuff i’m
i’ll hang out with
jeff but uh and his lovely wife
uh your ex-fiancee but
you know i don’t want to be more
involved than that you know just social
yeah more involved than
i mean planning their wedding yeah
yeah no more than which is what you
would
yeah what you had done which everyone
had told me that that would be very
stressful but
i i think it just depends on the color
oh was it easy it was just really easy
to do
well whenever a couple has a strong
enough bond
right it just makes it so easy yeah
like i and i like i don’t even think it
was my
you know my planning skills but like
that they just made it work
so well and they looked so great at the
wedding it was
yeah you can tell when they’re happy it
just makes you happier too with your and
it makes the job easier it’s not even a
job at that point right
that’s absolutely right it was so i mean
you yeah
you saw that picture i know you couldn’t
see from where you were
um laying down after they put me in the
coat closet
after they were done using me as a
footstool yeah yeah
i know you couldn’t see it from there
but like gorgeous wedding
the reception oh yeah it looked
beautiful yeah
oh they allowed you to see pictures they
told me they wouldn’t let you see
pictures
uh i it sounded beautiful it just it
sounded really beautiful
yeah through the through the coats and
shoes the cleats that they kept putting
on you
they’re stepping on anyway um
yeah so i guess to answer your question
you know do your job uh find some
sponsors find
let’s find some better guests this next
year maybe
okay and uh we’re gonna find i’ll find
i’m gonna find you
like clinical scientist types and uh
this is i’m gonna i’m gonna guarantee

but like also just get the good guests
and
also you know like
good sponsors that will stay with us and
don’t threaten or hurt them
or you know have well
i mean how else am i gonna get the
secrets out of them if
there’s not gonna be any threatening
going on okay we can talk about all this
yeah we’ll figure this out later i think
we’re about done

[Music]
[Music]
the room is uncomfortably crowded you
murmur apologies as you
shift position slightly but it does
nothing to alleviate your discomfort
and the faces around you almost appear
more stern in response
if that were possible tough crowd
you almost chuckled to yourself before
you regained composure
time passes and you grow increasingly
frustrated with
the claustrophobia so you start to try
to make room by
pushing out from your elbows but as soon
as that pressure releases
the gap is filled once again
that’s it you’ve had enough you push
your way through the throng to the door
bodies shoved aside by the bulk of it
and breathe in a breath of fresh air
one thing is slowly becoming clear your
