1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,840
Speaker 1: Brought to you by the reinvented two thousand twelve camera.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: It's ready. Are you welcome to stuff you should know

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: from house toff works dot com? Hey, and welcome to

4
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: the podcast on Josh Clark with Me. Is always this

5
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 1: Charles Chuck Bryant suffering from what looks like a headache.

6
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: And I just did that. Okay, that was method podcasting

7
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: and I was falling for it on a purpose. So

8
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: what's your witty intro? Because this is a fan request?

9
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: Is this super fan buddies? Yeah? Cooper Chuck? Oh was it? Yeah?

10
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 1: Does he have migraines? Cooper? Uh? Well, we'll say his name,

11
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: Aaron Cooper. He didn't mind. He's all over the place.

12
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: He uh has been asking for this podcast for a

13
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: couple of years and I finally wrote him to day.

14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: I was like, Merry Christmas, jerk. Yeah, can you imagine

15
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: having a migraine that's bad enough? Having a migraine in

16
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: Kansas is like a million times words and having to

17
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: listen to us make fun of it. Uh, Aaron requested this,

18
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: and we I just want to go ahead and say

19
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: Aaron has the RS, which we'll get to. He has

20
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: alternating sides that they occur on sounds pretty been having

21
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,199
Speaker 1: since he was a kid, and he has his triggers

22
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: food based sometimes sugar, caffeine, water, and now, and he

23
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: has his treatment now, which is when he sees the aura,

24
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: he knows it's coming too ecceteran migraines, dark room and

25
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 1: water and nap for like an hour and a half.

26
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: And he says he's gotten way better at staving them off.

27
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: So that's Kopa said it would feature you, so they're

28
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: not give me my money. There's the introduction. Is it really? Oh,

29
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: I'm glad you did that because I had none? Okay, great, Yeah,

30
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: welcome to the podcast. So Chuck, yes, uh, well, let's

31
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: talk about my brains. It sounds like, from what you

32
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: just described, Cooper is sadly um a pretty typical migraine

33
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: stuffer in that you have to really pay attention to

34
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: it yourself, figure out what works for you, what triggers it,

35
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: and when it's coming, and basically treat yourself because doctors

36
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: don't really have much of an idea of what migraines are. Um,

37
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: we know that they're not headaches because headaches are caused

38
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: by vaso constriction in the brain tightening of blood vessels, right,

39
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: that is right. Just Uh, they used to think that

40
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: migraines were caused by vaso dilation, just the opening of

41
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: blood vessels in the brain. That's still a common factor

42
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 1: in migraines. But that's not the only peace to the puzzle, right, Um,

43
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: Like you said, my migraines typically focus on one side

44
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: or the other. Um, they seem to be passed down

45
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: among families. Yeah, you're I think if one of your

46
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: parents had had my brains, you're about fifty more likely,

47
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: and if both of your parents had them, you're seventy

48
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: percent more likely. Now you were sevent in trouble. Yeah, yeah,

49
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: your parents. Have you ever had one? No, you don't

50
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 1: get them. No, And I seem to remember my mom

51
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: or my dad saying that they had them. But it

52
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 1: may have been a cluster headache. We'll get to those later.

53
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: There's there was ten times likelier that it was your

54
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 1: dad that said that. Then, because menton has more likely

55
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: to get cluster heady. But women are more likely to

56
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: get migraines, right, Like, Uh, eight percent of women get

57
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: migraines and six percent of men. That would make women

58
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: three times more likely. Yeah, that's in America, at least

59
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: twelve to twenty four Americans have migraines million. Right, there's

60
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: a hundred homeless people worldwide, so they can and this

61
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: this is the general overview. They can last anywhere from

62
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: a few minutes to the some reports of years without stop,

63
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: which can you imagine, now, why would you be alive still? Yeah, exactly,

64
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: Like I can't imagine that even an hour, it would

65
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: be horrible, but years, days, months, it's horrible. I don't

66
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: get headaches much at all, but when I do, I'm

67
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: not a happy camper. Loss of vision, vomiting tremors, stroke

68
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: like symptoms. These are what migraines can do to you, right,

69
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: and um that you hit upon something with that last one,

70
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: the stroke conditions or stroke symptoms. UM. The the migraine

71
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: has been kind of it's been taken out of the

72
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: realm of headaches and has recently been reclassified as a

73
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: neurobiological condition. And UM the stroke symptoms you talked about

74
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: some some migraines, some type of migraine. UM see sufferers

75
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: suffer from UM these stroke like symptoms, like they have

76
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 1: cognitive impairment, like they can't recognize words all of a

77
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: sudden like their armigo numb yeah. Um, they can't talk

78
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: correctly and when that happens, there's a migraine that coming. Right. Yeah,

79
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: there's are set up. Oh. Also triggers. That's a big

80
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: one too. Yeah, that's there's there's always a trigger and

81
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: they can we'll talk about the triggers in detail, but

82
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: they can vary. It's all according to the person. They're

83
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: different for everybody. Right, So here's what we know so

84
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: far as going on in the brain. Right, Um, there's

85
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: some sort of trigger, right, and we'll talk about triggers.

86
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: But let's say you, um the example used as you

87
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: didn't eat like you normally do. Yeah, you didn't get

88
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: out for lunch at noon, um, and something in that

89
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: lack of routine or changing routine sets off the NO

90
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: susceptors in the brain pain receptors the remember yeah, um.

91
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: The NO susceptors release chemicals called neuropeptides, and neuropeptides are

92
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: unique their neurotransmitters, which means that this is how one

93
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: neuron communicates with another. They create the electrochemical imp that

94
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 1: creates the language of the brain. Right, you know a

95
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: lot about the stuff now I do well. Version in

96
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 1: the brain, my friend. Yeah. But the and this is

97
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: where it relates to migraines. Neuropeptides, these proteins UM can

98
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: be a neurotransmitter or they could be a neuromodulator, and

99
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: a neuromodulator can turn the volume up or down on

100
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: the transmission of other neurotransmitters. Right. In this case, these

101
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: neuropeptides turn the volume way up on the pain receptors

102
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: in the brain, and so all of a sudden you

103
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: start to experience a headache like you've never had before

104
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: in your entire life. Yeah. Basically makes these pain sensing

105
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: cells way more sensitive than they ever would have been, right. Um.

106
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: The the neuropeptides also, for some reason relax blood vessels

107
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: in the brain, which causes the vasidilation. Um. But they

108
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: also think that this is what causes the auras. Yeah,

109
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: now the auras. We I don't think we saw what

110
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: that is. It's like a sort of a hallucinogenic visual

111
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: thing that happens. Um lights lines blurry things, and they

112
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: will or tunnel visions and they will proceed. It's a

113
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: warning sign like migraines are coming. Maybe thirty minutes maybe

114
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: and a day, but it's a coming. So that's what

115
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: ours are, right, Um. And they think that that comes

116
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: from this vasidilation in the brain, Like basically you're your

117
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: brains just doing something screwy because all of a sudden

118
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: there's a lot more blood flow and it maybe somebody's

119
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: getting pressed on, somebody's getting a lot more oxygen's overworking.

120
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: Who knows. Well. They can also cause leakage, actual leakage,

121
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: right eventually they and that makes the tissue around the

122
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: brain swell in your skull. So you have a lot

123
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: more oxygen, you have leaking blood vessels, you have these auras,

124
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: and you have in this cascade of heightened pain reception

125
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: in the brain, and there is your migraine. As far

126
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: as we understand it now, this is the most recent

127
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: thinking of what migraines are. And some guy just told

128
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: us this like thirty minutes thirty minutes ago. Hot off

129
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: the presses. Uh. And since we mentioned triggers, we should

130
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: talk about those for a second. They can depend on Uh.

131
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: It's that they're not even the same for everyone. As

132
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: Coup pointed out, they can be different things for him,

133
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: like sometimes he said, caffeine will trigger it. Sometimes a

134
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: lack of caffeine will trigger it. Right, It seems like

135
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: the one constant in migraines is that they are they

136
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:34,319
Speaker 1: are triggered by change. Yeah, yeah, yeah, true, Yeah, that's

137
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 1: really good things. Um so like food related um some

138
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: say that caffeine, alcohol, cheese, gluten, nuts, soy msg. They

139
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: can be triggers. Um smells, strong smells, strong smells like

140
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: skraut onions, cologne. You got an elevator with somebody with

141
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: really heavy perfume, you might get off the water with

142
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 1: an aura happening. Yeah, and you're gonna be like, curse

143
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: you snoop dog. Right. They can be behavioral, like we said,

144
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: if you don't get enough sleep, or if you didn't

145
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: eat on time, or if you're stressed, or maybe you

146
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: just had sex or you're not having sex. Not having sex. Second,

147
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,679
Speaker 1: that's a real bummer. Um. Exercise, you exercise too hard

148
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 1: or you don't exercise enough. So it's it's you never

149
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: can't tell. That's what makes migraines such jerks. No, and

150
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: this is we should say, like all of these are

151
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: are like the characteristics the symptoms of all of the

152
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: migraine sufferers in the world. Sure, for one person it

153
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: might be Uh, they might be Uh no sex anchovy,

154
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: um catheine just suffer. That's my Friday night dude. Right.

155
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: There's also hormones. Yeah, and that's why they think that women,

156
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 1: um might have more than men because of hormonal changes

157
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: that women experience that men do not. And there's a

158
00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: lot of correlative evidence among up that implicate hormones in

159
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: in in migraines like UM, migraines typically start after puberty

160
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 1: and women right when the hormones really start kicking in

161
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: UM they are very very rare. And women after menopause,

162
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: when hormones are depleted, they actually can come about again

163
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 1: in post mental puzzle women with hormone replacement therapy, UM,

164
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: they can correlate with menstruation and and uh, when a

165
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: woman becomes pregnant, has been pregnant, Uh, the migraines often

166
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: subside or just go away completely. Right. So there's something

167
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: to that. Oh yeah, there's a lot to it. The

168
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: sad thing is that we have no idea what it is.

169
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: You know, there's some poor schemo out there having a

170
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: migraine right now and there's nothing anybody can do to

171
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: help him right now. Well, maybe they're the dulcet tones

172
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: of Josh Clark and his earbuds will make that go away?

173
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: You think maybe because there are environmental factors that can

174
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: make them happen, so maybe they can make them go away.

175
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: I think that the dulcet tones of my voice was

176
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: the cause of migraine, like a flashing light like remember

177
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: the Nissan pulsar. Do you remember the break light went

178
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: They actually had to slow the pattern because people were

179
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: having seizures. Apparently that is probably an urban legend, but

180
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: it's a good one that I remember from the eighties.

181
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: That sounds very much like an urban legend. Loud noises, um,

182
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: strong smells, like we said, weather pattern like rain, yeah, um,

183
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: either when it's about to come on or it's just

184
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: changed subsided, especially when it happens quickly e g. The summer,

185
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: the change in barometric pressure. I suspect has a lot

186
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: to do with that. Josh, what are the types of migraines? Well, Chuck,

187
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: there is the classic migraine. We're gonna start with the second. First,

188
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: there's the classic migraine that is preceded by an aura

189
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: of some sort. The head pain comes on and uh,

190
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: you're in big trouble. Right. There also chronic migraines, which

191
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: are arguably among the worst, be more than fifteen a month. Yeah,

192
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: that's basically a lot of classic a lot of classic migraines, right, um,

193
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: common migraines. This is migraine pain with no aura. Yeah,

194
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,719
Speaker 1: no aura. Yeah, it's this is like a burger king

195
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 1: of of horrible headaches, isn't it? Like however you want it? Yeah,

196
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: but they did say that the common migraine though, while

197
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: you may not have an aura, there might be feelings

198
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: of euphoria or cognitive problems signaling like here it's a coming, right,

199
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: which is so depressing if you think about it, like, man,

200
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: I feel great and then you think crap. Uh. There

201
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: are or I'm sorry, ocular migraines, which you get our

202
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: symptoms without the pain of the headache, and they can

203
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: just be like thirty minutes and they go away. So

204
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: I don't understand if there's no pain and involved, and

205
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: all you're getting is the hallucinogenic aura symptoms like what's

206
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: the rub I mean imagine is distracting, but right, and

207
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: this is probably a little concerning, like you're like, am

208
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: I losing my mind? I have a brain tumor It's true.

209
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: I'd like to hear from someone that suffers from ocular migraines. Actually,

210
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: I wanted a better understanding of that firsthand. Abdominal migraines

211
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 1: common in children, pretty awful. It's like all of the

212
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: symptoms of a migraine except for the head pain. So

213
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: you have sensitivity, a light nausea, vomiting um, screeching at

214
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: anybody who tries to talk to you, that kind of thing,

215
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: you know. The other thing Coop said is that he

216
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: very much used to experience while he still experiences the nausea,

217
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: but he said that he has gained such control over

218
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: his vomit reflex that he has not thrown up since

219
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 1: nine since Ghostbusters. He said, wow. Yeah, any also reference Seinfeld,

220
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: of course, because I was gonna say that black and

221
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: white cookie. That's right. H. Then there are cluster headaches,

222
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 1: which we mentioned that men get more often, and they

223
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: are not migraines, but they say they may be the

224
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: most painful headache of all. But you remember and Donnie Darko,

225
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: where Drew Barrymore tells everybody. There's some linguists who said

226
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: that cellar door is the most beautiful phrase in the

227
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: English language. Cluster headaches. Those two words they evoke. Do

228
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: you know what a grape shot cannonball is? What it

229
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: looks like. Okay, so I see one of those, But

230
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: they're white and squishy balls that are connected together, almost

231
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: like tumors, but they're real circular. They're spherical, right, and

232
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: they start to like kind of drip and fall off,

233
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: but they're constantly replaced. That's what comes into my mind's

234
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: eye when I hear the word, the term cluster headache. Well,

235
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: it sounds like it's that bad because it's a sudden

236
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: explosion of pain after you've gone to sleep, Like you'll

237
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: be asleep and you'll wake up with this happening very quickly,

238
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: and it's usually behind one of your eyeballs. I think

239
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: that's what my dad used to have, because he used

240
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: to talk about it's right here and he pointed his

241
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: eye and I would just laugh and say, Dad, you're

242
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: so funny. So I'm getting that only in one way

243
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: or another. The reason they call him cluster heaches is

244
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: because they occur a bunch of times over the course

245
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: of a couple of weeks. Then they'll go away, like

246
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: for a year maybe then they'll come back in clusters

247
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: in clusters over several weeks or whatever, and then go

248
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: ahead with a thunderclap headache because I've never heard of that.

249
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: Thunderclap headaches are um, very sudden, very severe. They're pretty

250
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: much cluster headache, except they don't follow the same pattern.

251
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: They just kind of come and go. They don't seem

252
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: to follow any kind of pattern really, and it's like

253
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: they're shorter. But um, if you get thunderclap headache, you

254
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: may have blood pooling in your brain and you need

255
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: to go see a doctor. Yeah, that's it's a pretty

256
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: good sign that there's something very wrong with your brain. Um,

257
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: And we should say cluster headaches and thunderclap headaches don't

258
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: tend to occurrent families, whereas my graines to look at you,

259
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 1: So how do you know? How do you get diagnosed

260
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: with this? Basically you go in and say I think

261
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: I have a brain tumor, and the doctor starts running

262
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: tests on you using m ryes, cat scans, spinal taps,

263
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: rule everything else. Everything else is ruled out, and they go,

264
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: I think you might have migraines. But since we can't

265
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: really explain migraines, well, I can't say for certain spinal tap.

266
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: You ever had one of this? No, well, there's no

267
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: reason that you should have, have you No, of course

268
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: not well not, of course not people have them. But

269
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: I just you know, you always laugh at spinal tap

270
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: because the band and the movie, but you don't think

271
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: about a needle going into your spine. That's what they're doing.

272
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: They're tapping your spine like you tap a maple tree

273
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 1: for syrup. And it's a big it's a big, long,

274
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 1: like pretty heavy gauge. It's not like a tiny one.

275
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 1: It's big. I'd need more than a local anist at

276
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: it for that. My friend knock me out completely. I

277
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: don't know that they can because they probably have to

278
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: be um cognizant and aware and in control of your

279
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: body so you don't move no, thank you. Uh. Some

280
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: weird symptoms we talked about nausea and vomiting and stuff

281
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 1: like that. You can also fart a lot. I've saw

282
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 1: that flatulence problem. Flatulence a lot. You can be really thirsty,

283
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: you can smell weird things that aren't there. You can

284
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: think that you're appendages have grown in size, like my

285
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: arm has grown. If they actually have, it's probably just overeating.

286
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: If your arm gross. If your appendages grow in size,

287
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: food cravings, temporary blindness, no fun. This is what Coop

288
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 1: suffers from. And he still takes the time to do

289
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: all those photoshop drops of us because he did a

290
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: really good job with the Stepbrothers one. I mean, did

291
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: you look at the detail in it? And they're all

292
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: really good and so that was the peak. Yeah, so

293
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: you got a migraine, Josh, what do you do well again?

294
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: People people seem to treat themselves, or tend to treat themselves.

295
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 1: They figure out what their triggers are, so they become

296
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: very aware. If you're a um, chocolate sitar, uh, you

297
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: shouldn't exercise, right. If that's you, that's my Friday night,

298
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: you're gonna you're gonna stay away from exercise. You're going

299
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: to stay away from sitar music, and you're gonna not

300
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 1: eat chocolate, which sucks, but that's what you're gonna do.

301
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 1: And so you're going to prevent it. Right, there's a

302
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 1: cute treatment. There's preventative treatment. So you can prevent it,

303
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: um by paying attention to what triggers. These things, paying

304
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 1: attention to like if you get an aura, yeah, then

305
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 1: you're acute. Treatment kicks in, maybe you are going to

306
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: treat yourself acutely even before an ora kicks in. If

307
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 1: if you expose yourself to one year triggers um and

308
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 1: then if you if you do get the idea that

309
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 1: you're going to have a migraine, you can often treat them.

310
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: Like Coupe said, with you know a couple of eccrin migraines,

311
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 1: which are really just um insides. Yeah, taylan a advilt

312
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs, right, and that's going to

313
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 1: keep your brain from vasodilating supposedly. Yeah, and with ecceterrin,

314
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: we should say that they specifically made the migraine UH

315
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: pill and it's a combination of aspirin, ACTA, menefin, and caffeine,

316
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: which migraine people said that works for me. You take

317
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: these before head pain comes on. Once your head pain

318
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: comes on, you need something stronger called SUMA trip hand

319
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: summetric TAN, which is also called immatrix. Remember the immatrics

320
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: adds with the semi coming at you. Yeah, yeah, right,

321
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: Well apparently this stuff works after your head has started exploding. Yeah,

322
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: it works pretty well from what most people say, right right. Um.

323
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: I think also it's one of those things where there

324
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: works for you or it doesn't. I guess if it

325
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: works really well, you're gonna go all over the internet.

326
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: Sound great, it is right, um, but I think it

327
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,479
Speaker 1: cannot work in people. But if you have nausea, if

328
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 1: you have vomiting, fortunately for you there is uh summetrip

329
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: tan I hope that's how you say it, um nasal sprays. Yeah,

330
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: so you can't puke that back up. There's also injections.

331
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: If you go at the hospital with the migraine, they're

332
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: probably going to give you an injection of that. But

333
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,360
Speaker 1: as the author says in this article, you can get

334
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: your very own immatrix injection. Yeah, preventative. They found that. Uh,

335
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: and this is always so weird with me. For prescription drugs,

336
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: they find the off label use. They're like, well, your

337
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: blood pressure meds are stopping your migraines. That's cool. And

338
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: there's a whole host of these antidepressants. Uh, Like I said,

339
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: blood pressure medication, anihistamine, supro heptidine, cholesterol drugs, cardiovascular calcium

340
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,400
Speaker 1: channel blockers. They can all help with migraines with channel blockers.

341
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: I wonder if that has to do with this, if

342
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 1: it slows down the transmission of neurotransmitters because they go

343
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: through ion channels. That's where the actual molecules go through. UM,

344
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: So I wonder if that has something to do with it.

345
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: And then obviously with like a blood pressure medicine that's

346
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: going to keep vasodilation from occurring. UM. And then serotonin,

347
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: they figured out that, like you said, antidepressants and other

348
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: drugs that act on serotonin regulation or production have been

349
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: shown to alleviate migraines or keep migraines from coming up

350
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 1: on right, So serotonin has something to do with Sarah

351
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 1: to owning hormones, anchovies, the crazy botox supposedly, Well, they

352
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: just found that one of the weird side effects reported

353
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 1: was that a fewer migraines and fewer headaches. But no

354
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 1: one should go and get botox to relieve their migraines.

355
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: We're not saying that. It's just we call that a sidebar,

356
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: we do. Uh. And what about what Emily likes to

357
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: call hokey pokey treatments and what other people call alternative medicine. Well,

358
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: the one that jumped out at me is butter burr. Yeah,

359
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: I've never heard of that. I hadn't either, but it's

360
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,199
Speaker 1: an herbal supplement. The problem is is um it may

361
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 1: contain cancer causing compounds. So it's like, no, we're migraines

362
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: or early death from cancer. I don't know, Rye Bo Flavian,

363
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: eat your broccoli. Co enzyme Q tin supplements, cocute tin.

364
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: Oh you know about cocute tin? Sure? Uh, fever few.

365
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: It's an herbal supplement that apparently helps. It's an anti inflammatory.

366
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 1: And then there are different things you can do like massage,

367
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 1: breathing techniques, yoga, acupuncture has been said to help some folks.

368
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 1: If you're into this alternative thing, I think whatever helps

369
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,199
Speaker 1: you know, well, Chuck, let's finish this. Let's bring this

370
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: migraine to an in with famous people. Yeah. So apparently

371
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: there is a theory of the migraine personality that people

372
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,479
Speaker 1: who have migraines are more driven, more creative. And then

373
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who are driven in creative

374
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: or were who had migraines, like we're before migraines killed them,

375
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: right exactly, Virginia Wolf, Cervantes, uh, Nietzsche, Elvis, Freud, Monet,

376
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: BEng It's also possible that all these people just happen

377
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: to have migraines and we're creative famous, and there really

378
00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: isn't a migraine personality. You know. Percy Harvin, some Minnesota

379
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: Vikings receiver played for the Florida Gators. Yeah, I was

380
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: like to have a visceral reaction to that. Yeah, he's

381
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 1: a migraine sufferer and he'll u I mean, it keeps

382
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: him out of practice, out of games. He has to

383
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: go basically home and seclude himself in a dark room.

384
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: Apparently they're really really bad, despite the effect he played

385
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: for Florida. I don't want to I don't want to

386
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: wish that on anybody. Maybe Tim Tebow, maybe who's this

387
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: Auburn coach? Yeah, yeah, what about him? Let's wish some

388
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 1: migraines on them. You got anything else, I'm done, so KOPA.

389
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 1: I hope buddy, you have a good Christmas and that

390
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 1: your migraines. I hope we enlightened you some. He's probably like, no, yeah,

391
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: I don't even know all this. Yeah, thanks, anyway, this

392
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: would have been waiting two years for what how about this?

393
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: Let's wish let's everybody just go and wish that the

394
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: scientists will hurry up and cure migraines. Come about that.

395
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: Do you want to learn more about migraines and see

396
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: a picture of a brain getting hit by lightning? You

397
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 1: can type that word in, Oh, we didn't talk about

398
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: the word migraine, Chuck. The etymology of the word migraine,

399
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: I should say, uh, comes from two words hem acrania

400
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: half a brain, remember it only hits part of your

401
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 1: brain at once, and another word megram, which is actually

402
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 1: now another word for migraine, but megrim back in the

403
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: eighteenth century meant basically a low feeling on a whim,

404
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: or what a delicate woman would experience, you know, when

405
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 1: she You know how women used to feign, or they

406
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: think women feigned a lot or whatever. This was associated

407
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: with the migraines were associated with women. Ah, So megram,

408
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: hem acrania, migraine got you. Do you want to learn

409
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: more about migraines and hem acrania and megrims and type

410
00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: in either seagrams or migraine in the search bar at

411
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: how stuff works dot com and that should bring up

412
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 1: something interesting. You should since I said hendy, search parts

413
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: time for a listener. Mail Josh, this is about first kisses.

414
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: We got a lot of great emails. I'm going to

415
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: read one of them now, um, because this is a

416
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 1: nice message attached. Hi guys, including Jerry, I just listen

417
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: to your podcast I'm Kissing and made me think about

418
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: my first kiss. I'm twenty seven years old and my

419
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: first kiss happened but two years ago. When I was

420
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 1: growing up, I never dated and sadly not by my

421
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: own choosing. I would admire the popular boys from Afar

422
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: and imagine what it would be like to kiss them

423
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,719
Speaker 1: when go ahead, Okay. When high school came around, I

424
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 1: had a lot of friends, but I began feeling bad

425
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 1: about myself because I never had a boyfriend. No one

426
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: was interested in dating me. I was always the best

427
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: friend who was just one of the guys. Wait, Chuck,

428
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: I'm confused. Is this is from a guy or a girl?

429
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: From a girl? I took a long time. It took

430
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: a long time, but eventually gained a tentative piece just

431
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: being single. Then one day strings swelling. Then one day

432
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: I met Dylan Awesome. We became friends. Six months later,

433
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: a miracle happened. He actually was interested in me and

434
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: I was interested in him. At the same time we

435
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: started dating. We had our first kiss, which quickly turned

436
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: into a full blown makeout, which you know, usually the

437
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: first kis stuff that's going from you know, zero to

438
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: sixty pretty fast. Right. It was amazing and completely worth

439
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,959
Speaker 1: waiting for. We are still together and the kisses are frequent.

440
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 1: All to say that I want to encourage, Here's where

441
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 1: the good message comes in. All to say that I

442
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 1: want to encourage anyone out there who feels like they

443
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: are a late bloomer in life and the romance department.

444
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 1: I believe there's a lid for every pot, and someday

445
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 1: that person who was worth the weight will show up

446
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: in your life. I'm a side note. When I first

447
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: started listening to your podcast, I thought the woman at

448
00:27:53,880 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: the beginning was saying from house to Forks dot com.

449
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,959
Speaker 1: I was very confused how it related. That is from

450
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 1: Leah in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Earth, Leah, thank you very

451
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: much for writing in stay warm up there in Calgary

452
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 1: this winter. That was a late bloomer, not um, you're

453
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:21,600
