1
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 1: I'm Tt and I'm Zakiyah, and this is Dope Labs.

2
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: Welcome to Dope Labs, a weekly podcast that mixes hardcore

3
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: science with pop culture and a healthy dose of friendship.

4
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: This week, we're running you through some of what we've

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: been seeing in our notifications, from our news app and

6
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: on our timelines. We've been traveling a lot, but luckily

7
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: we've been traveling together because we've been working on our

8
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: planetarium film with the Museum of Science in Boston. Yeah.

9
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: I got to DCA, one of my local airports the

10
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 1: other morning, and I immediately text you, Zakia, because it

11
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: was nasty in there. Everybody was coughing, everybody was sneezing,

12
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: everybody's noses were running. I saw a few people wipe

13
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: their nose on their sleeve, and I said, hey, girl,

14
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: bring a mask. You need to wear a mask in

15
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,279
Speaker 1: the airport because it was like this in DC. I

16
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,839
Speaker 1: know it's like that in Atlanta. I had just traveled

17
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: a week before and I always keep a mask in

18
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: my bag, and I'm like, yeah, it's time to put

19
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: my mask back on. I don't know what was going on.

20
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 1: I can't explain it, but falls here and along with

21
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: fall comes the ick. Okay. I can't remember who I

22
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: was talking to, but I was saying, are you getting

23
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: your flu shot in your COVID shot? And they were like,

24
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: are we allowed to get a COVID shot? And I

25
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: get it. Because the vaccine landscape is mountainous, it is

26
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: difficult terrain. Oh my gosh. Yes, because of all these

27
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: recent shakeups at the federal level. Because of RFK, junior

28
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: access to vaccines has changed, and it is varying from

29
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: state to state. So it's not even like, oh, me

30
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: in Maryland talking to you in Atlanta. We probably don't

31
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: have the same rules and regulations in place. Well at

32
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: the federal level, here's that's what happened last year twenty

33
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: twenty four to twenty twenty five for COVID boosters. The

34
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: recommendation was that anybody the six months are older should

35
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: get a booster shot. Okay, at the end of August,

36
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: and this is on the heels of RFK firing the

37
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: director of the CDC and wiping out that board that

38
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: makes the recommendations for immunization. On the heels of those

39
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: two events, at the end of August, they said, hey,

40
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: we're changing who we're recommending COVID vaccine boosters for so

41
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: instead of it being people six months are older regardless

42
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: of health status or risk factors, it was changed in

43
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: the recommendation now is people who are sixty five and

44
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: older or those with high risk conditions, and those high

45
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: risk conditions are like asthma, obesity, pregnancy, and like physical inactivity.

46
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: But it's tricky. In response to that, the states are like, nah, okay,

47
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: that might be the federal regulation, but we're gonna do

48
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: something different. And so there are some states like outwell,

49
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: there is a block of states I think it's Oregon, Washington, California,

50
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: and Hawaii that have been proactive. They built up this

51
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: West Coast Health Alliance the West Coast they're gonna ride Okay,

52
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: They're sharing data, reviews and issue in joint recommendation, so

53
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: pharmacy and clinics there can keep vaccinating people that are

54
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 1: younger than sixty five without a federal green light. Then

55
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: to other states like Florida going the completely opposite direction.

56
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: I know you saw that man. There was a lot

57
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: in my timeline about that man from Florida giving vaccine advice,

58
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: and I said, they eating you up on the internet, brothers.

59
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: I mean we all see those things. That's always like,

60
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: it always starts off with man from Florida, and it's

61
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: always gonna be something crazy. I don't know. You know,

62
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say it's just all people in Florida,

63
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: but it seems to be a trend. But with all

64
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: this talk about COVID vaccines, it makes me think about

65
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: the flu shot, like, are they still available for everyone?

66
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: Is it gonna be the same. The flu shots are free,

67
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: you know, but I don't now, I'm not really sure.

68
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: So the good news is that flu shots, on the

69
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,839
Speaker 1: other hand, are still available for every one age six

70
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: months and up, and the CDC still recommends getting one

71
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: every year, and this season the flu shot covers like

72
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: three main flu strains. Now there is something exciting, or

73
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: at least exciting to meet about the flu. Being a

74
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: nerd and that I don't care. That makes me feel good.

75
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: Thank you. The nasal spray flu vaccine flu MISTED is

76
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: now proved for self administration if you're eighteen to forty one. Oh,

77
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: so you can literally vaccinate yourself. Now I want to know, TT,

78
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: would you try this? Would you try the nasal flu spray? Yes?

79
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: I think I would. Why not if they said that

80
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: there's efficacy there. You know, I'm using all of my

81
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: bio words. Yes, that's right, Like then my friends are

82
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: right only in this moment. But yeah, I think if

83
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: they're if they're saying that it's safe and that it works, absolutely,

84
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: I don't see why not. So here we have not

85
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: only our traditional flu vaccine, but expanded access that allows

86
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: us to do the flu vaccine by nasal spray and

87
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: you can get that ordered directly to your door. I

88
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: am not sponsored by flu mists. I have not taken

89
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: flu miss. I'm just excited about expanded access. You have

90
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: a fan fan flu mist, yes, And so here we

91
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: see expansion here and a narrowing of the label for

92
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: who should get vaccination on the covid side. And it

93
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: also it just feels like this term I learned when

94
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: we had doctor Barbara Hoefer and her colleague come on

95
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: to our show and talk about science denial, and they

96
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: talked about the cafeteria style like kind of picking parts

97
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: of science you want to put on your tray. Yeah,

98
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: picking and choosing. It's not that you don't believe vaccines

99
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: work because you're saying, hey, have a flu shot, but

100
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: don't have a COVID booster, right, And so the bottom

101
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: line is not to let political drama or the who

102
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: knows what kind of patience you would need at the pharmacy,

103
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: you know for access there. Right, So what should people do?

104
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 1: They should not let it stop them from protecting themselves

105
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: or their loved ones. Because over the holidays, I plan

106
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: on seeing all the older people in my family, and

107
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to be the person that gets them sick.

108
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 1: And so I think reaching out to your primary care physician,

109
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: figuring out what's happening in your state, that's the best way.

110
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: I have seen people sharing great information on threads of

111
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: all places, they're like Walgreens on this street has the

112
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: COVID booster, like wow, word of wow, meet people where

113
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 1: they are. If they don't threads, go there. Isn't it

114
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: sad though, that our governance has put us in this spot,

115
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 1: like governance is at an all time low, right, And

116
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: it's hard because you want to turn away, but it

117
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: also feels like we need to be involved, you know

118
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 1: what I mean? You saying that is like the you

119
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: know how sometimes you hear a thing that you hear

120
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: it somewhere else in a different topic, like we need

121
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: to be involved? Is this theme hearing everywhere. I was

122
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: listening to this book by Karen Howe called Empire of Ai,

123
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: and so she's a journalist who's been covering AI over

124
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: the past few years. And then this book she talks

125
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 1: about open AI and she's like, open AI is just

126
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: what's on the plate, that's just the flavor of the moment.

127
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: We need to be looking at how we're whipping this

128
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: stuff up in the kitchen. And so she likens it

129
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: to Facebook. Facebook just used to be a social media

130
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: platform but without regulation and governance. Look at it now,

131
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: Look at Mark Zuckerberg. Okay, And so she talks about

132
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: she talks about AI and this ecosystem of web technologies

133
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,679
Speaker 1: and she talks about it beyond like the large language

134
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: modelers like chat, GPT, and she was saying, we need

135
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: to be thinking about what it looks like to be

136
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: involved in governing what's happening. Because I know a lot

137
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: of people are saying opt out, don't be involved, and

138
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, we need to be even more involved

139
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: in guiding. That's the only way you can protect is

140
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: if you are involved in God exactly because when you

141
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: think about it, when you think of like deep fakes,

142
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: all these scams I'm getting We were talking about this recently.

143
00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:02,119
Speaker 1: I'm getting ten scam text messages a day, I'm getting

144
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: scam calls. And when an AI starts to be a

145
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: part of the scam, people are going to really be vulnerable.

146
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: Like and I really think about our aging population who

147
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: are really vulnerable to this, Like they can receive a

148
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: phone call from someone that sounds exactly like their partner

149
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: or exactly like their grandchild and say, hey, I need

150
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: your help, can you send me this or that? Then

151
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: what if we've all opted out, then we don't know

152
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: how to fight this, and we don't know what to

153
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: ask regulators and our governments for in order to protect us.

154
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: So we really have to know what's going on in

155
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: the AI space so that we can arm ourselves with knowledge.

156
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: And that knowledge is power and it helps us to

157
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: guard ourselves against these the people that are trying to

158
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: pray on us to you know, scam us out of

159
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: our money, scam us out of our identities, and all

160
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: these things like that. So I think it's really important.

161
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: And I mean, even on the heels of that, I've

162
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: been watching a lot of documentaries. They got some good

163
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: documentaries out there right now, and speaking of like deep

164
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: fakes and pretending to be other people. Have you seen

165
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: that Netflix show Unknown Number Listen, Brittany just told me

166
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: to watch this a couple of days ago. I started

167
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 1: that documentary at like one am the other and we'll

168
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,959
Speaker 1: talk about my sleep layers. But I still need your

169
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: ordering data and I'm afraid to upload it. I started

170
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 1: that documentary and it was wild tt you know, I

171
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: had heard a similar story before, and so when it

172
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: came to the end and there was that great reveal,

173
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 1: I was like, I knew it, you know, like I

174
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: don't want to spoil, but if you haven't seen it,

175
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: you should see it. Stop right now and go see

176
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 1: it and you can finish it episode. Absolutely, go see it.

177
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: I think it's been enough time. We can talk about it. Oh,

178
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 1: we can talk Okay. Then, So there was a young

179
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: teenage girl, probably like thirteen years old, who was going

180
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: to a school in a very small town in Michigan.

181
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: She was dating this boy. Her name was Lauren. She's

182
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 1: dating this boy named Owen. Lauren and Owen, you know,

183
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: I kind of grew up together. This is a very

184
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: very small town. They said they have one stoplight two bars.

185
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: There's only like one major school where it goes from

186
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: kindergarten all the way up to twelfth grade. So everybody

187
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: knows everybody. Everybody knows everybody, and so they begin to date.

188
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: And then after dating for a little bit, they start

189
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: getting text messages from a number that they don't know.

190
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: None of them have that number in their phones. They

191
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: don't know who it is, and it's saying these really

192
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: vile things about Lauren, very very vile, vulgar things about Lauren,

193
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: and they're all maliciously targeted at Lauren, and some very

194
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: sexually inappropriate things about Owen and saying like, oh, he

195
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: doesn't want you and he wants to be with me.

196
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: It was just so awful, saying really awful things about

197
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: Lauren's body and things like that. So as the story's progressing,

198
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: we're going it's been over like a year and a

199
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: half at this point, and they have suspected other people

200
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: at the school, but they haven't been able to figure

201
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: out who it was. The case gets turned over to

202
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: the FBI. The FBI is able to do like their

203
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: crypto forensics, and they trace IP addresses and it turns

204
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: out it was Lauren's mom the whole time, you like

205
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: your jaw hits the floor because then you think about

206
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: all the messages that were sent. She was telling her

207
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 1: daughter to die by suicide. She was saying the most

208
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: awful things about her. But then like she's saying, I

209
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: love my daughter so much, I love her, I love her,

210
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: I love her, And it's just like how do you

211
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: reconcile these things? One theory that they had in the

212
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: show is that she has like some form of Munchausen's,

213
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: which is a medical disorder where someone will go to

214
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: great lengths to either make them all seems sick and

215
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: in some cases they will do that with their kids

216
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: in order to gain attention and sympathy and things like that.

217
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: So some people are accusing her of having that disorder.

218
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: But it was just like a digital version exactly exactly.

219
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 1: And so I mean, if that's happening, imagine laying AI

220
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 1: on top of that. Who knows if they would ever

221
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: found out and like what the end of this story

222
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: would have been. That is so wild. It also reminds

223
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: me of that movie Run that had Sarah Paulson in it.

224
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: Not to give it away, but that was a good movie.

225
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to watch that, and Sad, I'm definitely

226
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 1: gonna have to watch that. You should watch it. As

227
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: we move more and more digital, I think about there

228
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: are places where you can create community. Everything is just

229
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: a tool, it's how you use it. In this case,

230
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: Lauren's mom was using digital tools to totally isolate her

231
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: daughter to cause mayhem, madness. I don't even know what

232
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,559
Speaker 1: else to call it, because I was like, how can

233
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: she even show her face? She should be a shame.

234
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: Bring back shame, I'm sorry, bring it backly the fact

235
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: that she agreed to be a part of the documentary,

236
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: I was like, clearly, you don't feel like you did something.

237
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: What did she say? She said, we've all broken the law. Yeah.

238
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: I was like, baby, this is We're not talking about

239
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 1: legal or illegal. We're talking about the destruction, the destructive behavior,

240
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: the way you're tearing down your daughter. And that little

241
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: girl is young, but when she hits twenty twenty two,

242
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 1: twenty three, like that stuff is going to surface later

243
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: in life, and baby, I hate it for But also

244
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: we see people using digital tools to create these great communities,

245
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: to realize previously unrealized or unactualized potential. One of the

246
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: things I've been seeing and I just asked you about

247
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: this earlier, The Great Life. Yeah, I've been seeing that shit.

248
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: I first saw it on TikTok where people were saying, oh,

249
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: we're locking in starting on August first, and I was like,

250
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: why August first? You know what I mean? I saw

251
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 1: it on TikTok first, folks were saying, oh, we're gonna

252
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: start locking in August first. I was like, what's happening

253
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: August first? I don't understand, Like what fiscal year are

254
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: y'all on. I don't I don't understand why August first.

255
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: But then I was like, okay, let me not get

256
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: too hung up on that. And then I was like, okay,

257
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: what is this great lock in? And so the great

258
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: what a great lock in is just people saying, Okay,

259
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: starting now, I'm locking in to make sure I achieve

260
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: my twenty twenty five goals before twenty twenty six. So

261
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: August to December is for time for me to get

262
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: in shape, like really stay with my workout regimen, or

263
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: really lock into this business plan that I had, or

264
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: gain one hundred thousand followers on whatever social media platform

265
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: to start daily vlogging like I want to do like

266
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: anything that you have been putting off. They're saying, okay,

267
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: now of time to lock in and do it. Why

268
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: are we always locking in and never locking out, Like,

269
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: let's lay down, right, let's relax, and if we're really

270
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: being real, the great lock in to me just feels

271
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 1: like another remix of hustle culture. Remember seventy five hards.

272
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: They're still doing that. Remember I told you those people

273
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: try to put me in that seventy five hard group.

274
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: I said, baby, take me out, and they cannot trick me.

275
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: It's wow, It's just like these things, you know. I

276
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: don't know if I want to say survivor bias, but

277
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: it's some mechanism of that right where there are these

278
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: trends where if you work hard, you promises this like transformation,

279
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: or if you just grind enough for a set number

280
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: of days. There are people that grind for many, many

281
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: days okay, and nothing happens. And so now you adding

282
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: TikTok hype and hashtags and filters on top of that,

283
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: and it's like every few months there's a new font

284
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: exactly for like the same old productivity exactly. And what

285
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: that all leads to is burnout and We have done

286
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: an episode on burnout with Ann Helen Peterson, and it

287
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: is something that you know from our generation Millennials or

288
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: generation why whatever you want to call us, that we

289
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: are heavy engagers with like I'll sleep when I'm dead

290
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: and grind so hard blah blah blah blah blah blah,

291
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: and it doesn't lead to anything productive, and like it

292
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 1: doesn't work out well for us because we aren't even

293
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: set up economically in a way where that can work

294
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: out for us well. Like financially speaking, we are not

295
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: making as much as our parents, and we have far

296
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: less money saved, we have way more debt, there's way

297
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: less stability. It's just not the same. And so we

298
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: really we talk about locking in and everything like that,

299
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: and I just worry about folks because I'm just like,

300
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: you really gonna lock in and burn out and then

301
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: you're good to no one, especially yourself, Because if we're

302
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: talking about locking in and it comes to the detriment

303
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 1: of your rest, that's not the type of locking and

304
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 1: you should do because sleep is so essential for physical recovery,

305
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 1: overall health, hormone regulation, immune system support, stress reduction, improved

306
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: mood enhance, cognitive functions so that you can do all

307
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: that stuff that you claiming you want to do, locking

308
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: in barely making any progress because your cognitive function isn't

309
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: exactly that's not even increase creativity. So, really, all you

310
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: folks within the sound of my voice thinking about locking in,

311
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 1: and you've already been locked in for what a month

312
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: or something, Now take time to rest because it will

313
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: help you not just lock in for August through December.

314
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 1: It'll help you with creating an environment and ecosystem for

315
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: you to be overall locked in, locked into your mental health,

316
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: locked into your emotional health, locked into having the life

317
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: that you deserve, which is a life that has balance

318
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: with productivity and rest. Yeah, I think that's a lesson

319
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 1: I have really had to learn and relearn. Maybe that

320
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: means I've been feeling it's hard. It feels important to

321
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: reset the locking out for me, like I have had

322
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 1: to be like, Okay, I'm owning my own calendar. I

323
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: don't need it to be the first of August or

324
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: the twenty first night of September whatever earth Wind and

325
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: Fire said, Like I start when it's time for me.

326
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: I am claiming the timeline that actually fits my bandwidth.

327
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: You know, like, do I have the energy for this

328
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: right now? I think the other thing I've had to

329
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 1: do is decide what success looks like for me up front.

330
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: You know. I think for a long time I really

331
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: wanted things to be perfect, and I was like, hey,

332
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be perfect. Sometimes it just needs

333
00:18:54,200 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: to be done. You know, just last night, you sent

334
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: me a yup screenshot of something I see in you

335
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen. Right, I'm gonna pull it up. Pull

336
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: it up. Yeah'm gonna pull it up. She sent me

337
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: something on Snapchat. Now that I know people have gone

338
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: chat Snapchat, so enough shay, okay, but I've not been

339
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 1: on Snapchat since probably twenty sixteen, and so she sent

340
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: this to me and says, we all have a blinking line.

341
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 1: Your blinking line is whatever sits in front of you

342
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: waiting to be brought into existence. It's the book or

343
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 1: day or job or business or family or mission or

344
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: class or plan or cause or meeting or task or

345
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: project or challenge or phone call or life that is

346
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,439
Speaker 1: waiting for you to bring it into being. That was

347
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: so timely when you shared it with me again, because

348
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, you get to choose, you get

349
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 1: to choose what you're putting your energy towards, and it

350
00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be all those things in that list

351
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 1: all at the same time, right, And so I've been

352
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: doing a better job of honoring time for recovery. You know,

353
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: before I would pack my schedule, there was no time

354
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: that I was having whiplash, baby, and I'm like, Okay,

355
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 1: slow down, take a break. These things can wait. And

356
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: I think I've just found that to be incredibly rewarding.

357
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: One of the things I will say, I mentioned it

358
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 1: a little earlier, getting that sleep is key. Absolutely. Now

359
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 1: I admire you in that way because you're somebody to

360
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: go to sleep fast. I can go to sleep right now.

361
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: Literally in the middle of this sentence, I could close

362
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: my eyes and be almost right at sleep store. That's

363
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: how quickly it happens. Now, Do I always lay down

364
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: and do that? No, because I also struggle too sometimes. Yeah,

365
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 1: but we both have to prioritize sleep. There's a recent

366
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: study that just came out of Neurology. It was published Neurology,

367
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 1: which is the journal for the American Academy for Neurology,

368
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 1: and it says people with chronic insomnia had a forty

369
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: percent higher risk of developing mild cognitive impairment or dementia.

370
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: So I was, like, chronic insomnia do I have that?

371
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: Chronic insomnia is defined as having trouble sleeping at least

372
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 1: three days a week for three months or more. Wow,

373
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: ur ring was it was saying girl, you close. You

374
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,119
Speaker 1: used to say girl, you're close. And so in this study,

375
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: they tracked people that were around seventy years old. They

376
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: looked at like twenty eight hundred almost twenty eight hundred people,

377
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: and they monitored them for an average of five and

378
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: a half years. Of the people who had chronic insomnia,

379
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 1: fourteen percent of them went on to have cognitive issues

380
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: compared to ten percent of the people who didn't have

381
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: chronic insomnia. So that's the forty percent difference they're talking about. Now,

382
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 1: that's one thing, But the other thing is there was

383
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 1: just a study from another study that came out from

384
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: the scientists that you see Berkeley, some scientists that you

385
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: see Berkeley, and they were looking at mice and they

386
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 1: dissected the brains and said that we finally figured out

387
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: the neural circuits or the pathways that happen when you're

388
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: asleep that allow you to release growth hormone. That's you

389
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: know when they say kids need a lot of rest

390
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 1: and grow, Yes, it's true, but you also need it

391
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 1: for adult metabolism. So the sleep is important for the kids,

392
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: but parents and big kids like me, it's important for

393
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: you too. I don't want to grow up. I'm a

394
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:28,479
Speaker 1: toy us kid. Okay. We have to find productive ways

395
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 1: to get that recovery and wellness because you know, it

396
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,959
Speaker 1: wasn't right. But when things got tough and I felt stressed,

397
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: I used to turn to oysters. And hey man, they've

398
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: taken that away, taken it away from us. Now they

399
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: are so they are finding bacteria in the oysters, like

400
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: deadly bacteria. It's always been bacteria there. But right, I

401
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: need to get my terms right. You see that quickly.

402
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: I'm no longer biologists. There's always bacteria that fast. I'm recovering.

403
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: I'm recovering and recovering. There's always bacteria. But this is

404
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 1: deadly backteria, bad bacteria, you know, And so that really

405
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: hurts because me and my friend we bond over oysters.

406
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: We love to go to a restaurant and just bring

407
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: us two dozen and my friend will fill out the

408
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 1: little car and be like two of this, two of this,

409
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 1: two of this. We'll just get two of everything and

410
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: we just enjoy ourselves laughing. You know, a little cocktail

411
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 1: on the side. And now I'm now I'm nervous if

412
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: I need to pour a cocktail on the on the

413
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: oyster try and kill something in it. No, No, I'm

414
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 1: just waiting for it to cool down, okay, where that

415
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: bacteria can't grow as well. And some of this is

416
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: just part of our food systems, Like who is no

417
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: one testing the oysters? We need to bring back Oyster South.

418
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: The folks from that group from the Virginia Marine Science

419
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: Institute that we're doing all these studies on oysters, fund

420
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 1: them because I need my oysters and I need them

421
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 1: to be safe. Yes, we need them very badly. I think,

422
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 1: you know, we could go on and on because there's

423
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,479
Speaker 1: still so much news we haven't talked about. Yes, but

424
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,479
Speaker 1: I'd hope people are feeling like there's a little science

425
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 1: behind all of you. I want to hear from people.

426
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: What have they been seeing on their timeline? Yeah, I mean,

427
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: because we were just talking about this too. Everybody's internet

428
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: is so different. Somebody looks like this viral body suit

429
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: I said, viral body suit. I have never seen this ever,

430
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 1: heard of her, never seen this. Hey you look good, girl,

431
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 1: but this is not viral. But then I realized, Hey,

432
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 1: viral for you, it's not the same thing as viral

433
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 1: for me. Like I'm you know what's viral for me?

434
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 1: Baryl jeans? Okay, I wore some viral jeans the other day.

435
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: YACKI clippings. Hey, don't sleep on a good clipping, all right,

436
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: change your whole mood. Change your mood, change life, change

443
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: y'all on a car now. We touched on a little

444
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,120
Speaker 1: bit of neurology this week, but t T tellum what's

445
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,719
Speaker 1: coming up next with Yes, I am so excited because

446
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 1: in our science communication episode, we had a very phenomenal

447
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: neuroscience PhD student named Lindsey Edgoe, and she is coming

448
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 1: back to the show to talk about all the work

449
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: she does in the neuro science space and what her

450
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 1: research focuses on is pain and how our brains process

451
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 1: pain and things like that. So I am very very

452
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 1: excited for y'all to listen to this. Yes, it's gonna
