WEBVTT - I'm Not Here for That

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Anna, you had to get give blood. I had to

0:00:02.840 --> 0:00:05.480
<v Speaker 1>give blood. What's going on with us? We're both either

0:00:05.519 --> 0:00:08.039
<v Speaker 1>falling apart or we're both having to do blood stuff.

0:00:08.119 --> 0:00:11.760
<v Speaker 1>You go first, Well, quick question for you on the

0:00:11.800 --> 0:00:15.360
<v Speaker 1>blood stuff. Are you okay with needles?

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:18.080
<v Speaker 2>No? I'm not at all okay with needles.

0:00:18.079 --> 0:00:18.119
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:22.119
<v Speaker 2>I've never been okay with needles, like even shots. But

0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:24.400
<v Speaker 2>something about a needle that has to stay in your

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:26.759
<v Speaker 2>arm for a period of time, like what while the

0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:31.120
<v Speaker 2>blood comes out does not sit well with me. So actually,

0:00:31.160 --> 0:00:33.640
<v Speaker 2>when I was getting my blood work done, I passed out.

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:37.120
<v Speaker 2>But that's not that's not uncommon, like it happens frequently.

0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:38.880
<v Speaker 2>I actually should have worn them ahead of time.

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:41.120
<v Speaker 4>Do they stop like when you pass out? Do they

0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:42.680
<v Speaker 4>wait for you to come back to life for that?

0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:44.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't know because I'm the only one

0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:46.880
<v Speaker 2>in the room. But then they're like laying me back.

0:00:46.960 --> 0:00:50.720
<v Speaker 2>They bring me a cold compre compress compress, put it

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 2>on my head, some apple juice and a cookie, and yeah,

0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:56.600
<v Speaker 2>then I just come back to it.

0:00:56.680 --> 0:00:59.000
<v Speaker 4>Who needs medicine? All it takes is apple juice and

0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 4>a cookie and your back life. I should have been

0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:05.960
<v Speaker 4>a drug addict. I actually it's not too late. I

0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:08.760
<v Speaker 4>am you know, I might that might be my second life.

0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:11.920
<v Speaker 4>I am so good with needles.

0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>It's crazy because I go give blood a lot, you know,

0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>like I ay when I say give blood. I've given

0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:19.680
<v Speaker 1>blood at the American Red Cross. The only problem is

0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:24.320
<v Speaker 1>they spam call you and text you NonStop afterwards. But

0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:26.880
<v Speaker 1>I have to give blood for work all the time

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 1>because or for my health all the time, because I

0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:32.160
<v Speaker 1>had that hard thing. So I go give blood all

0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:33.640
<v Speaker 1>the time, and it's no big deal to me.

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 5>Anna.

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:36.880
<v Speaker 1>The hardest thing is trying to find my veins through

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:38.040
<v Speaker 1>my big fat arms.

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:39.440
<v Speaker 5>You got to drink.

0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:43.280
<v Speaker 1>And the other thing that's interesting is I actually give

0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:46.280
<v Speaker 1>myself shots because of I have that weight loss shot

0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:50.600
<v Speaker 1>that I do, So I'm good with that. My thing

0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:52.680
<v Speaker 1>is this, And I don't know where you went, but

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:56.080
<v Speaker 1>I went to a place right by the radio station.

0:01:56.920 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 1>And the problem was the place that I went to.

0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I walked in and there were a lot of sketchy

0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:05.920
<v Speaker 1>people in there. And when I mean sketchy, I'm talking

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 1>barbed wire tattoos.

0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 5>I'm talking talking.

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>Kevin described this person perfectly when we were talking about

0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:20.720
<v Speaker 1>the tattoos, like there was a room full of and

0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:22.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm not lying to you when I say this, because

0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:26.720
<v Speaker 1>they all were talking about it. Hepatitis, they were checking out,

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>there were DNA, there was drug. This place does testing

0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.799
<v Speaker 1>of more than just blood. And so I'm sitting in

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>the waiting room and I'm looking around and I'm seeing

0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>some people that I think doctor Reynolds at Reynolds Orthodonyx

0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:47.600
<v Speaker 1>could have gotten some patience from. And I'm looking around, going, guys,

0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm here for my heart. I just want you guys

0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:52.880
<v Speaker 1>to know. It's just I got I have this like

0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 1>heart thing that happened to me. I had an aneurysm

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.000
<v Speaker 1>heart like I'm explaining it to these people because I

0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 1>don't want them looking at me, going.

0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:02.359
<v Speaker 5>There's heppetite right there. He's in with the rest of them.

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:05.560
<v Speaker 1>It's wild because then they call you back the place

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:07.280
<v Speaker 1>that I went to, and Anna, you tell me what

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 1>yours was. You get an appointment online and then you

0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:14.359
<v Speaker 1>go in and your name is on the.

0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 5>TV screen there have you. You know what I'm talking about.

0:03:17.840 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Mine was not like that. Mine was like a doctor's

0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:22.680
<v Speaker 2>office and they just had like a little room back.

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.880
<v Speaker 1>There minus h It was a I'll shout it out.

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>It was Quest. It was a company called Quest Diagnostics.

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:29.600
<v Speaker 5>Heard of them.

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Yes, that's the plug bell for anybody when you need

0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 1>to give blood, because if you have a heart issue

0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>like me, or appatitis like her, not you anna, but

0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 1>the person she was telling.

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:48.680
<v Speaker 2>Me labs general labs. Let's make that clear.

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:52.160
<v Speaker 1>This woman was telling me about her appatitis, which I

0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 1>kept thinking to myself at that moment. It was kind

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 1>of like, you know when people say that they have

0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:57.400
<v Speaker 1>COVID or do they have a friend that has COVID,

0:03:57.680 --> 0:03:59.800
<v Speaker 1>you kind of like move away from them. I'm like,

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 1>do I sit here? I don't know what I, potential

0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:06.120
<v Speaker 1>lee should do. But it's weird when you go to

0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:07.560
<v Speaker 1>the doctor, and I don't know if you guys have

0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:10.040
<v Speaker 1>experienced this, if you go to the doctor, you go

0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:13.360
<v Speaker 1>to the doctor because you need to do something, and

0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:16.160
<v Speaker 1>you feel like you need to tell everybody that you're

0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 1>not sick or that you are just there for general stuff.

0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Like I always feel like I have to now tell

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 1>somebody that's in the waiting room with me.

0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:25.760
<v Speaker 5>Is that what you did when you start finding out

0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:26.880
<v Speaker 5>who you're in the room with.

0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I do like I'm looking across the way at me,

0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 1>and there's you know, there's this guy that is standing

0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:35.719
<v Speaker 1>there and he's coughing the whole time. I hate the coffers,

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:39.159
<v Speaker 1>the coffers inside there. But and also do you talk

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 1>to the person that gives you it takes your blood.

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:45.320
<v Speaker 4>You got to have a conversation. Something interesting you said

0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.760
<v Speaker 4>in the waiting room. I try to find a seat

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 4>that's away from everybody. And it's almost like the journal, like,

0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:53.320
<v Speaker 4>don't pee right next to me. If we go to

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:57.120
<v Speaker 4>a hospital and there are chairs everywhere, find the furthest

0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:59.600
<v Speaker 4>chair away from me, and as people walk in, allow

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.240
<v Speaker 4>them to don't come sit next to me with a

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:04.600
<v Speaker 4>highlights of magazine and trying to bring up a conversation

0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:06.920
<v Speaker 4>like stale, sick ass over there. I'm gonna stay over here.

0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 4>You're not trying to cross contaminate.

0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 1>I sit in the the fat person chair or the

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 1>double person double boy.

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 5>It's comfortable. Yeah, I'm with it. Hold on, Nicole, what's

0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 5>going on? Nicole? How are you?

0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:23.520
<v Speaker 6>Oh?

0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:26.039
<v Speaker 5>What the hell on? Say that again? You were sounds

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:26.839
<v Speaker 5>like hepatitis.

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.440
<v Speaker 6>I said, I'm good, how are you fantastic?

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:32.440
<v Speaker 5>What's I'm good? Now?

0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:34.640
<v Speaker 1>My blood test actually came back. I just patted. It

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 1>actually looks good.

0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:38.159
<v Speaker 6>Awesome, that's great news.

0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:42.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean, can't start any anything better than that.

0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 6>So my son, he's had vaccines when he was younger.

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:53.120
<v Speaker 7>Recently, I took him in he while he was thirteen

0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:56.520
<v Speaker 7>at the time, and they're like, oh, if you do

0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:58.000
<v Speaker 7>for this vaccine.

0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 6>I'm like, yeah, sure, go ahead. So they give him

0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.800
<v Speaker 6>the vaccine and we're getting ready to check out.

0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:04.440
<v Speaker 5>He's like, my heart's.

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.839
<v Speaker 6>Racing and I was like, well, you're probably just you know,

0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 6>the needle, because he was a little fray of needles.

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:12.560
<v Speaker 6>And he's like yeah, but I don't feel well. I

0:06:12.600 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 6>feel like I'm going to pass out.

0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 7>And I was like, oh, hurry right out, leave and

0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 7>we go to the waiting room.

0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:19.200
<v Speaker 6>I said, we'll go ahead and sit down. It's like,

0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 6>go to the front desk just to ask because.

0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:22.679
<v Speaker 5>This has never happened before.

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:26.440
<v Speaker 7>And I was like, is there like a reaction to,

0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.280
<v Speaker 7>you know, the vaccine at all that he has just got?

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 7>And as I'm looking at him, I see him jolting,

0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 7>like he's leaning over and jolting.

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.839
<v Speaker 6>And I'm I'm like, oh my gosh. I was like,

0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 6>something's wrong, and I'm freaking out.

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.560
<v Speaker 7>The doctors are looking at me, and I was like,

0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:42.760
<v Speaker 7>what to ask you guys?

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:44.320
<v Speaker 6>I was like, I was thinking there was something in

0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:47.279
<v Speaker 6>the vaccine. So all these doctors and nurses came over

0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 6>and they're just like very lottyedy loddy DoD. They're looking

0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 6>at me and they're smiling. And I was like, like,

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:54.800
<v Speaker 6>did I do something wrong?

0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.520
<v Speaker 7>She's like, oh, he probably just passed out, honey, this

0:06:57.560 --> 0:06:58.480
<v Speaker 7>happens all the time.

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:04.839
<v Speaker 6>That they did something to him. Was like scene, wow, Yeah,

0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 6>it scared me. And he came back and he looked

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 6>at me like what just happened. He's like, why are

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.480
<v Speaker 6>you Why are you holding on to me? Why are

0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:14.120
<v Speaker 6>you staring at me? I was like, you just passed out.

0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:17.720
<v Speaker 6>Oh scared me so bad. I thought that he was

0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 6>like dying or something.

0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 1>If he's a little guy with that, which I you know,

0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:25.960
<v Speaker 1>is understandable, if that grows into his adulthood, what happens

0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>if he becomes a grown man that passes out or

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:30.240
<v Speaker 1>has problems with needles?

0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:33.280
<v Speaker 5>Do women look at you guys differently?

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:39.120
<v Speaker 3>His dad actually does, Yes, it does. When I gave

0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 3>birth to our son, I'm you know, I had to

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.880
<v Speaker 3>get a C section, and Dad was standing over me.

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:46.880
<v Speaker 6>As soon as he saw a little bit of blood,

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:49.080
<v Speaker 6>he starts. He was like, oh my gosh, I'm going

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:50.840
<v Speaker 6>to pass out. And all the doctors and nurses came

0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:53.160
<v Speaker 6>over to him, and I'm laying on the table. I

0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:55.400
<v Speaker 6>was like, they're giving him the stiffic. So I'm like, hey,

0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 6>what about me? So I totally forgot about that when

0:07:59.400 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 6>he got.

0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:04.720
<v Speaker 1>you for the call. We should do that as a

0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:09.320
<v Speaker 1>topic sometime of guys who who needed more medical attention

0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:13.760
<v Speaker 1>in the delivery rooms than their birthing wives did. What's

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:15.120
<v Speaker 1>going on, Samantha, how you doing?

0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:16.800
<v Speaker 4>Hi?

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:20.160
<v Speaker 8>So I used to live in California and out there

0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:23.440
<v Speaker 8>they have like their version of Medicaid, the government insurance.

0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 6>They assign you a doctor you don't get to pick.

0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:28.600
<v Speaker 8>And I went to my primary care doctor appointment that

0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:32.040
<v Speaker 8>was inside of a methodome clinic, oh j And while

0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:34.360
<v Speaker 8>I was sitting in a waiting room, a bunch of

0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:36.880
<v Speaker 8>you know, the people there getting their daily treatments, were

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 8>all sitting there talking and I just know that I

0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.920
<v Speaker 8>had the most like sank face, just like getting on

0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:44.520
<v Speaker 8>the dirtiest look, and the one woman looked sober for

0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:46.520
<v Speaker 8>at me across from across the room, and she says,

0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:47.760
<v Speaker 8>why are you looking like that.

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:49.680
<v Speaker 6>We're all do batic toe you. I said, oh, no,

0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:50.160
<v Speaker 6>we're not.

0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:55.040
<v Speaker 1>The last time I went there, uh see, I actually

0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:57.560
<v Speaker 1>found it to be very interesting the place that I

0:08:57.600 --> 0:08:59.320
<v Speaker 1>went to, and I thought that I'm going to go

0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:01.440
<v Speaker 1>back again if I ever have to go get a test,

0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:06.000
<v Speaker 1>just because everybody was having great conversations. Nobody was quiet

0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:09.160
<v Speaker 1>about it, like normally when I go to the doctor,

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.320
<v Speaker 1>everybody is so secretive about their health. There, everybody's telling

0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.839
<v Speaker 1>you everything about themselves. I've had sex with.

0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:19.760
<v Speaker 8>Having a great time chatting about it in the center,

0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:21.720
<v Speaker 8>and I'm sitting there just a pall, like what.

0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>No, we actually it's the funny thing. We were talking

0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:28.120
<v Speaker 1>about the closest Raising Canes like we were some lady

0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:30.280
<v Speaker 1>was afterwards, She's like, when I give my blood. After

0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:32.040
<v Speaker 1>I give my blood, I'm going to Raising Canes to

0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:35.559
<v Speaker 1>get a sweet tea, and I'm like, we're going to

0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:38.360
<v Speaker 1>have the best day ever. And then we're gonna go

0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:41.679
<v Speaker 1>to the methadone clinic on floor number two,
