I think it's something that we should 813 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 2: probably make a recurrent thing, just talking to a doctor 814 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 2: that deals with mental health and things like that. 815 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 3: I think that's important. 816 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 2: We got to make it cool, make it cool to 817 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 2: get therapy, make it cool to talk to a professional 818 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 2: about mental health, the same way we make it cool 819 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: for anything else that destroys us. 820 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 3: Make it cool for something that helps us. 821 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I love that mental health has become such 822 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: a big part of podcasting, and I think with this 823 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: doctor it's a different approach to it. Because therapy was 824 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: taboo before. Now I think it's become a taboo that 825 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: just going to therapy is not just going to fix it. 826 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: Like now everyone is like, oh, well that's the final 827 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: step of just like, oh, get a therapist. She'll be fine. 828 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: And it's like, no, dog. Shit takes a lot more 829 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 1: from diet to what you're doing in your personal life. 830 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: It's not just sitting talking to a stranger to get 831 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: your shit off. So yeah, I think there's another angle 832 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,280 Speaker 1: to this, this mental health topic. 833 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 3: So all right, so let's welcome doctor Gad and let's 834 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 3: have this conversation. 835 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: All right, Welcome to the new Roran Maul Show. We 836 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: never do formal intros. Ever, we usually start talking shit. 837 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 2: Butorganized someone way smarter than doctor, things need to be Yeah, 838 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 2: a former. 839 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,760 Speaker 1: Hello, this is the new Rorrian Mall Show. Welcome episode 840 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: I've thus forgotten eighteen eighteen. Yeah, we are here with 841 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: doctor ged. We thought it was doctor God, that's why 842 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: we had him on here. But now that it's good, 843 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: it's kind of disappointing. 844 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:50,919 Speaker 3: I thought God was coming today. 845 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: So yeah, how would you give us some of your background? 846 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: I know you and I briefly spoke yesterday and you 847 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 1: had some really interesting things to say that I think 848 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: are super important, So we could just start with your background. 849 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 5: Thank you guys for having me on talking about serious 850 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 5: things on serious right, terrible already with the dad jokes. 851 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 1: I like it's lane. This is what we do. 852 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 5: You know, the whole road is our lane. 853 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: Let's just let's call it that for now already. 854 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,879 Speaker 5: H I'm an, i'm as. I hear you guys talk 855 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 5: about hip hop, so let me start with that. You know, 856 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 5: I do represent Queens Hey. What was well in Rego 857 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 5: Park right off the expressway. I could still see the 858 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 5: apartment that my parents moved to when I was a 859 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 5: few months old, and I saw New York City as 860 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 5: a beacon. I still do, and I love this place. 861 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 5: I was raised there in Long Island, and nothing else 862 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 5: I want to do but be a doctor when I 863 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 5: was little, you know, because I thought it was the 864 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 5: most curious, noble, special, powerful position, you know I was. 865 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 5: I was looking to to change people and may be 866 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 5: more and I think that's what I'm trying to do now. 867 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: So the specific part of health that you work on 868 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: is what exactly psychiatry. Psychiatry okay, and is when you 869 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: prescribe medications to adjust and talk to people. Of course, 870 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: important to do both pills and skills to improve their 871 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: thoughts and emotions and behaviors. So I'm terrified at pharmaceuticals, 872 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: especially with mental health. I think that's even more terrifying. 873 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 1: Like I've taken antidepressants before. I hated the way they 874 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 1: made me feel. It was awful. So what is the 875 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: difference in what your practice does in the new ways 876 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 1: that you're trying to bring I guess pharmaceuticals into mental. 877 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 5: Health, right, you know, I kind of share some of 878 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 5: your sentiment, And that's why I've moved into a bridging model. 879 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 3: Right. 880 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 5: I think that to be an extremist to say they're 881 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 5: all bad, and an extremist to say there's a pill 882 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 5: for everything, they're both dangerous paths. And so when I 883 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 5: started in psychiatry and medicine, I didn't know it was 884 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 5: going to be a psychiatrist. I mean, I love Fraser 885 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 5: Crane and all, but I went to be a doctor, 886 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 5: a real doctor, so to speak. And then I realized that, 887 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 5: you know, after nine to eleven where I was right here, 888 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 5: that this was a situation I was going to be 889 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 5: more talented for. So I wanted to reduce harm to others, 890 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 5: harm to self. I wanted to help people out of 891 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 5: that darkness, and I needed as many tools as I 892 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 5: could and learn the tools. So before I could think 893 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 5: outside the box, I had to understand what's inside this box? 894 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 5: What are we using to help people? And at that time, 895 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 5: twenty years ago and pretty much still it's the same. 896 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,359 Speaker 5: We use a lot of benzos, We use a lot 897 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 5: of antidepressants. Sometimes we mix antidepressants. We use antipsychotics for 898 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 5: people who are not psychotic, for children who are not psychotic, 899 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 5: as tranquilizers. We mix and match drugs so that people 900 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 5: leave with a bag of medicines and they don't know 901 00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 5: what they're taking, when they're taking it, and how they're interacting. 902 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 5: These are the things that were frustrating because it meant 903 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 5: no one was taking their medicines and they weren't even 904 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 5: that effective. If we look at rates of suicide, addiction, homicide, 905 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 5: mass violence, they haven't gone down in the last twenty years. 906 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 5: Access to treatment has improved. It's not great by any means, 907 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 5: but I think psychiatry has to accept its own failures here. 908 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 5: So what I do that's different and what I started 909 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 5: to do at Bellevue because after residency in Long Island, 910 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 5: I said, I'm obviously coming to New York City to 911 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 5: live and work here. Where else am I going to 912 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 5: go the mecca of crazy? So here I come, and 913 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 5: I started to see people at Bellevue, And the frustrating 914 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 5: part was coming back, going back and forth, saying people 915 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 5: sometimes right, homelessness, addiction, inability to care for themselves, inability 916 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 5: to or in unwillingness to want to take their medicine, 917 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 5: and suicide attempts and slow motion suicide. So I said, 918 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 5: you know, there's a great medicine called lithium, but we 919 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 5: seem to only you it dogmatically for people who have 920 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 5: bipolar disorder at certain levels. So I said, what if 921 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,240 Speaker 5: I used it for this woman who is cutting herself? 922 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 1: And can you explain what sorry to cut you off, 923 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:11,760 Speaker 1: what lithium is exactly? 924 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 5: Of course, In short, lithium is the dynamite that ignited 925 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 5: the entire Big Bang. It is a dust, it's a mineral. 926 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 5: It's in every rock, it's in every living thing. Okay, 927 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 5: small amounts of it. At that Big Bang. It was hydrogen, 928 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 5: helium lithium. Two of those are gases, ignitable gases. The 929 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 5: other is a solid. So it literally started the whole explosion. 930 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 5: And if it's in every single thing right now, we 931 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 5: know it as a Nirvana song. We know it is 932 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 5: you know something that is in batteries for your phone 933 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 5: for your testa, for your computer, for anything practically, so 934 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 5: it conducts electricity. It's a metal, it's the third element 935 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 5: on the periodic table, so it's a salt, it's a metal, 936 00:40:56,080 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 5: and it's also a very effective psych med But the 937 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 5: connotation in psychiatry is, well, that's some heavy duty stuff. 938 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 5: You got to be real crazy to be on that. 939 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:07,839 Speaker 5: It's going to cause side effects. It's going to make 940 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 5: you a zombie, it's going to slow you down. And 941 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 5: that comes from misuse and misunderstanding. So back in the day, 942 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 5: we certainly overused that medicine and didn't understand that too 943 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 5: much of anything that's good on the periodic table hurts you. Yeah, 944 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,919 Speaker 5: too much potassium is in the lethal injection. Not enough 945 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 5: potassium will also kill you because when you have diarrhea, 946 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 5: that's what you lose electro lights, right, potassium. So tiny 947 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 5: amounts of good problems. 948 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,280 Speaker 1: I said, all the listeners know about my fiber problems, 949 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: so oh, I would love to But you were saying that. 950 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,400 Speaker 1: So you took lithium, and there was a woman. I 951 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: just wanted to get a full understanding what lithium wast. 952 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're gonna get there, so you know, So This 953 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 5: woman is a prototype, right, a person that I saw 954 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 5: over and over many kinds of people that don't have 955 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 5: certifiable bipolar They don't have manic episodes, but every time 956 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 5: they come in, they are harming themselves someway with either 957 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:07,919 Speaker 5: with relationships or with addiction or physically themselves. Right, because 958 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 5: they've had trauma in the past. Trauma is so connected 959 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 5: to self harm that I thought, why don't I use 960 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 5: the medicine that reduces self harm viably? This is if 961 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 5: you look at psychiatrien and say what prevents suicide? What 962 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 5: drug that you guys use prevents suicide? There's only one 963 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 5: that has been tested over and over replicated, and that 964 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 5: is lithium, and yet it is still number twenty five 965 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 5: on the most top twenty five psychmeds prescribed. So that's 966 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 5: ridiculous to me. Number one. I started to basically use 967 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 5: less than the prescribed amount because I'm like, if a 968 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 5: lot works for people who have bipolar disorder who are 969 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 5: really sick, let me use a little bit for you 970 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 5: to see if you feel better, if you don't want 971 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 5: to kill yourself, if you don't think about suicide. Instead 972 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 5: of multiple other drugs and combinations that are causing weight 973 00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 5: gain and sedation, sexual side effects. You're not taking these, 974 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 5: you don't want these. These are snowing you like a 975 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,320 Speaker 5: straight jacket for you. Let me give you this. It's natural. Yeah, 976 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 5: And I found out that you know what, if I 977 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 5: use half the prescribe dose, it was working. And so 978 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 5: doctors pharmacies would call me be like, this patient isn't 979 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 5: on enough. I'm like, have you talked to this patient? 980 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,879 Speaker 5: They're doing great and they're on one pill. So that's 981 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 5: how I realized that less is more of some natural things. 982 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 2: How much over the last twenty years as being a 983 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 2: doctor and studying as far as depression and things like that, 984 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 2: how much of that do you attribute to social media 985 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 2: and access to a lot of information, Because I, you know, 986 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,760 Speaker 2: I feel like people have so much access to information, 987 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,320 Speaker 2: your brain is on the wheel, anxiety levels start to heighten, 988 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 2: and things like that. And I think that as a doctor, 989 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 2: I'm sure you studied patterns of the effects that social 990 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 2: media and access to information around the world and taking 991 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,359 Speaker 2: in so much information at one time can affect someone's brain. 992 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 2: Like do you attribute a lot or some of the 993 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 2: suicidal rates to people with addiction? If you will, to 994 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 2: social media and being just online reading things and not 995 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 2: being able to just relax. 996 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 5: Partition of it. Yeah, absolutely, but not the majority. I 997 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,759 Speaker 5: don't want to make social media the devil here they are. 998 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 5: It's a tool like the Internet is a tool. I've 999 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 5: seen the pre and posts of the Internet. I'm forty 1000 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 5: five years old. I don't think you guys are that 1001 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,760 Speaker 5: much combined. No, I'm kidding, you are seasoned veterans. 1002 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: Or someone all just looks like it's twenty five. 1003 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 5: No, I'm kidding though, but I'm probably older than most 1004 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 5: of your listeners. And that's why I think I can 1005 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 5: be a bridge. And yes, I think that it's an intoxicant, 1006 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 5: just like you know, alcohol once upon a time, and 1007 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 5: I think it's necessary for a society. It improves a society. Nicotine, caffeine, sugar, cannabis, 1008 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:57,840 Speaker 5: all of those things, small amounts, moderated improve life. Actually 1009 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 5: so does the Internet. But if you abuse people financially, yeah, 1010 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 5: and if you don't give people the right treatments when 1011 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 5: they do need it, then they will use those intoxicants indiscriminately. 1012 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,800 Speaker 1: As advice, and I've been given social media can be 1013 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:15,879 Speaker 1: a vice as well, how you alone as advice, So. 1014 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 5: Happy kids don't over use social media because they don't 1015 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 5: need to. 1016 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 1: They'll have to find that void. 1017 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 2: How do you feel about the fact that like sports 1018 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 2: are now not testing for cannabis, like the NFL and 1019 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 2: the NBA and no longer testing their athletes because athletes 1020 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 2: have been so vocal over the years of saying how 1021 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 2: uh medical marijuana has helped them physically and mentally deal 1022 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:42,240 Speaker 2: with the group you know, grewsome nature of the sport football, 1023 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,280 Speaker 2: and uh a lot of our NBA players have started 1024 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,840 Speaker 2: speaking about speaking out the last few years about mental 1025 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 2: health and how medical cannabis has helped them with that. 1026 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 3: Like, how do you feel about. 1027 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 2: Sports now accepting that and allowing players to use recreational 1028 00:45:58,400 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 2: and medical marijuana. 1029 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:01,480 Speaker 5: Well, here's the plus and minus of it. The plus 1030 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 5: is that if this leads to less opiate use and 1031 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:11,319 Speaker 5: intense pharmaceutical use steroid use, maybe, right, that's a good 1032 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 5: thing because that can lead to extremely self destructive behaviors 1033 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 5: on and off the field. 1034 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:17,399 Speaker 3: Right. 1035 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 5: If we're gonna also drink less, that's a good thing. Okay, 1036 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 5: But I don't think we're gonna see less CTE from 1037 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,399 Speaker 5: the use of cannabis. I also think that it may 1038 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 5: not be a performance enhancing herb. You know, maybe on 1039 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,760 Speaker 5: weekends right after or for the NFL on Sunday nights, 1040 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 5: I don't know. But it reduces REM sleep. This is 1041 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 5: the big thing that I talk about with kids, and 1042 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 5: anyone who uses cannabis enjoys it. And I've enjoyed it too. 1043 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 5: I think it's special. I mean it's kinnab as Sativa, 1044 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:56,280 Speaker 5: satava is Hindu. We made this stuff, We invented this stuff. 1045 00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,760 Speaker 1: You're welcome, many thanks. 1046 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 5: So it does, however, have a sacred background in terms 1047 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,280 Speaker 5: of rituals. It wasn't meant to be something we enjoyed 1048 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 5: every day. And it's because it reduces REM sleep and 1049 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 5: deep sleep. And there's three kinds of sleep. You go 1050 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 5: to bed, you have light sleep, it's the on ramp, 1051 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 5: and then you got deep sleep for body rest, and 1052 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 5: then every ninety minutes you have REM sleep for brain 1053 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:33,360 Speaker 5: rest and rinsing and cooling. That's the purpose of REM 1054 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 5: of dreams is to process all the junk, to wash 1055 00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 5: out your brain like it's in the washing machine. But 1056 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 5: when you use cannabis, you reduce REM. So you might 1057 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 5: notice if you smoke on a Friday, that night you're 1058 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 5: gonna have less dreams. You'll fall asleep beautifully. You think, right, 1059 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 5: you have a great time, et cetera. Saturday, you may 1060 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:57,240 Speaker 5: not wake up as crisp Saturday night. If you don't smoke, 1061 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 5: you will have rem rebound more dreams than normal, more 1062 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:07,359 Speaker 5: vivid dreams. That is cannabis and its effect. Okay, so 1063 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,240 Speaker 5: if we use regularly, we're not letting our brains recover. 1064 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,720 Speaker 5: So that whenever I tell kids and such, I always say, look, 1065 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,879 Speaker 5: your brain is a ferrari right now, keep it clean, 1066 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 5: keep the fuel clean. When it stops its really active development, 1067 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:25,919 Speaker 5: then you can dabble in this stuff a little bit more. 1068 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:30,200 Speaker 5: But right now, you know, feeded, love feeded, you know, laughs, 1069 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 5: good stuff. 1070 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,879 Speaker 1: It's funny you brought up the Hollywood thing, and I mean, 1071 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 1: I know obviously you don't need to say anyone's names 1072 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 1: or allude to any situations, but I do know that 1073 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 1: you have worked with entertainers, with famous people, and I 1074 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 1: feel like our culture just just shits on celebrities and 1075 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,720 Speaker 1: then we go, well, they're rich and famous, who cares? 1076 00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 1: And then we wonder why they act out and do 1077 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:57,920 Speaker 1: these insane things. The higher they get up in their successes, 1078 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 1: treating them and speaking with them. Is there any like 1079 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: commonality with entertainers that you think is why there is 1080 00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:09,720 Speaker 1: so much erratic behavior from them once they become famous. 1081 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 5: Well, I think sometimes the insecurities that are that lead 1082 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:19,080 Speaker 5: to them suffering and maybe creating beautiful art, you know, 1083 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:25,240 Speaker 5: timeless art. They remain even if they are wealthy and powerful, 1084 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,720 Speaker 5: they may still feel small inside, and so no amount 1085 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 5: is enough, no amount of adulation is enough, and any 1086 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 5: time away from stage feels very uncomfortable. We can talk 1087 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,399 Speaker 5: about Whitney and Michael and Chester and you know, these 1088 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,400 Speaker 5: people that I grew up idolizing and watching and loving 1089 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 5: the music of Cobaine, all of these guys, and there's 1090 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 5: a commonality of abuse in their past. So how much 1091 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 5: do you have to suffer for your art? Is my 1092 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,760 Speaker 5: question often to these folks. I think you can stress 1093 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 5: yourself and suffer to create, But I don't think anyone 1094 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:08,280 Speaker 5: wants you to be a model of self destruction because 1095 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:10,440 Speaker 5: you also have a mic, and that's power, and you 1096 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 5: have the ability to lift or depress people based on 1097 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 5: your behaviors. 1098 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:19,560 Speaker 1: And has any of them taken the lithium treatment and 1099 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 1: found their creative process hindered or a way of Hey, 1100 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 1: I kind of do need some of this sadness and 1101 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 1: erratic shit in my brain. I can't really be happy 1102 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:30,799 Speaker 1: to be this good. 1103 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 5: Do you run into that great question? So there's two 1104 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,359 Speaker 5: there's two realms of this, right, there's people who may 1105 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 5: actually have bipolar disorder. And for those people, I tell them, look, 1106 00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:44,440 Speaker 5: any hospitalization is going to derail your social and occupational 1107 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 5: progress's mess up relationships and also your contracts and stuff 1108 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 5: like that. And when we've seen this studied professionally, we've 1109 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 5: seen that people who treat their bipolar are actually more 1110 00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 5: successful artists and such, they just produce more. Then if 1111 00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 5: it's not okay, outliers like Van Goh and whatnot, you 1112 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 5: know this is this is very difficult comparison. Now on 1113 00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 5: the low dose level range, yeah, I see the same concept. 1114 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,879 Speaker 5: People take it and they say, okay, I've I don't 1115 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 5: feel different, I don't feel unlike myself. I feel elevated. 1116 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 5: It's not an anti depressant. It's pro hope. It's pro elevation. 1117 00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 5: It's a mood stabilizer theoretically, but so is this floor. 1118 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,319 Speaker 5: It's stabilizing us, it's peeping us from being, you know 1119 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 5: in the lobby where we can elevate from this floor. 1120 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:41,319 Speaker 5: So it's preventing your downfall, it's preventing the self destructiveness, 1121 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 5: and that means that you're going to produce more work 1122 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 5: and better work. So what that's what they've seen income wise, 1123 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:49,879 Speaker 5: health outcome wise as well. 1124 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,240 Speaker 2: Have you in just looking at artists from the outside 1125 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:55,799 Speaker 2: if you haven't been able to sit with them one 1126 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:56,239 Speaker 2: on one. 1127 00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 3: Someone like Kanye West, and this is some do we 1128 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,720 Speaker 3: talk about non culture because over the years we've watched 1129 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 3: him go through some changes, moods, mood swings, say things 1130 00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 3: publicly that's kind of like you look at it like 1131 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,680 Speaker 3: that was a little off. Why would he do that? 1132 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 2: Do you think that someone like Kanye, because I always 1133 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 2: talk we talk about it a lot. I attribute a 1134 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:23,080 Speaker 2: lot of Kanye's, you know things after the traumatic loss 1135 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 2: of his mom, you know in the law. He it's 1136 00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 2: a I think that we started to see a different 1137 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 2: person after that, naturally, Like you lose your mom, somebody 1138 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,480 Speaker 2: that you love and care about like that, I think 1139 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,640 Speaker 2: it affects you. Do you think that being in a 1140 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 2: spotlight like that and then going through something as traumatic 1141 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 2: as losing a parent and then just diving into your 1142 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,239 Speaker 2: art and your work and not really like taking time 1143 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:48,319 Speaker 2: alone and away from the public eye. Do you think 1144 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 2: that that helps you by diving into your art and 1145 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 2: not really grieving and giving yourself time to heal from that. 1146 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,239 Speaker 2: Do you think that that's healthy to do. 1147 00:52:56,680 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 5: I don't think that's healthy. I think any loss. Look, 1148 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 5: we're in a time of COVID. A lot of people 1149 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 5: have lost, right I've lost people I know, mentors and such. 1150 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 5: And it's been awful losses, undignified loss, kids and even kids, 1151 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,879 Speaker 5: believe it or not, and mostly elderly are grandparents dying 1152 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 5: alone in their beds. But any loss, I tell someone, 1153 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 5: you know, there's these stages of grief we know, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance, acceptance. 1154 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,319 Speaker 5: That's the end. I don't want to accept. It's not 1155 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 5: enough to just accept that my mom died traumatically. I 1156 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 5: think we need to go beyond that and talk about 1157 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:37,400 Speaker 5: honoring her. How do we honor the people we lose? 1158 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 5: I don't think it's through destructive behavior. We take the 1159 00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 5: best of them and continue to live with that and 1160 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 5: elevate them with us. It's star Wars, and you know, 1161 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,799 Speaker 5: I mean we want dies and we keep him and 1162 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 5: we use that love and energy. I hope that he 1163 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 5: would or anyone would not just avoid and dive into work, 1164 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 5: but paul and reflect and see what is the essence 1165 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:07,880 Speaker 5: of that loss, of that life And what can I 1166 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 5: include not just put a plaque up and such, but 1167 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 5: what can I keep in my heart every day and 1168 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 5: keep continuing. 1169 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 1: Do you think there'll ever be a world? Because we 1170 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 1: talked about the NFL and CT and obviously we know 1171 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,799 Speaker 1: that the music business can drive someone fucking crazy. And 1172 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,920 Speaker 1: we've talked about how record labels should have therapists and 1173 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 1: you know, have that on deck at any time for 1174 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 1: I want to call them employees with their artists. But 1175 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 1: even not just the music industry and sports, I think 1176 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 1: in general, is there a world where every company is 1177 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 1: required to have someone like you and a therapist readily 1178 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 1: available as part of your employment And why does that 1179 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,399 Speaker 1: not happen yet? 1180 00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:54,439 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1181 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 5: I think that world is coming. I'm hopeful. I think 1182 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:01,840 Speaker 5: we have to have that world because now, you know, 1183 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 5: if I could borrow a line from one of the 1184 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:08,040 Speaker 5: best rappers, you know, I don't think the world is anyone's. 1185 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:11,360 Speaker 5: The world is not yours. The world is not mine. 1186 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:16,680 Speaker 5: We belonged to the world. The world is a living being. 1187 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 5: It's a planet. It's not a rock. This earth is 1188 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 5: a breathing macro organism, and we've given it a fever. 1189 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 5: It has a fever from us, from our behaviors of 1190 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 5: digging up oil, sending it hot boxing the whole planet. Okay, 1191 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 5: so it's attacking us now. It's causing our demise with 1192 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 5: its antibodies. It's virus. So if we recognize that, eventually 1193 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,400 Speaker 5: this thing is going to explode because the Sun's going 1194 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 5: to incinerate it, just like every star does. We got 1195 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 5: to get the hell off and fucking excuse me, four 1196 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 5: billion years? Why wait till then? Why not start now 1197 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 5: working together? To work together? We have to stop being 1198 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:57,640 Speaker 5: self destructive and destructive to others. That's the essence of 1199 00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:00,920 Speaker 5: mental health, you know, is to work to together somehow 1200 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 5: to share resources and symbiotically behave, not parasitically behave. 1201 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,239 Speaker 1: I mean, do you think that's I guess everything is 1202 00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: kind of big business and politics at the end of 1203 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,520 Speaker 1: the day, and we all know the pharmaceutical and what 1204 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 1: their actual main goal is. Do you think that's maybe 1205 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 1: why it hasn't become a priority to have someone like 1206 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:27,799 Speaker 1: that around your work environments because they obviously stress people out. 1207 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 1: No matter what you do. I don't care if you 1208 00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 1: work at Amazon and you work at McDonald's, it's still 1209 00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 1: going to be stressful in some way to mess with 1210 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,120 Speaker 1: your ability to work in those environments. 1211 00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:40,400 Speaker 5: But it's even more stressful now. And you mentioned big business. 1212 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:42,880 Speaker 5: Why hasn't it happened yet? Why isn't it working? Because 1213 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,360 Speaker 5: you know, I sometimes I feel like I don't know 1214 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 5: Will Smith at the end of that movie I am Legend, 1215 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 5: And you know, it feels sisaphian. It feels like I'm 1216 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 5: spitting in the wind because no matter if I do, 1217 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,360 Speaker 5: if we litheated the water of New York City, they 1218 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:04,920 Speaker 5: would still be problems because government is not paying people enough, 1219 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 5: because government that we have elected are beholdened to profits, 1220 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 5: not people anymore. And since the seventies when I was born, 1221 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:22,520 Speaker 5: there's a chart that's very telling, cost of living has skyrocketing. Okay, healthcare, education, housing, 1222 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 5: like this, all right? Median income since then, since seventy six, 1223 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 5: that year when I was born, has been pretty flat. 1224 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:37,000 Speaker 5: Black median income has been down relatively so there's a 1225 00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 5: huge gap as a result, people have covering that up, 1226 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 5: mortgaging this, gigging themselves out. But the only thing that's 1227 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 5: been up with that is campaign financing. That if we 1228 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:52,919 Speaker 5: reform that and we actually have leaders reaching across the aisle, 1229 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 5: not going left wing right wing, but cockpit style, you know, 1230 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:59,480 Speaker 5: having drinks across you know, after work and whatnot, connecting 1231 00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 5: with each other like we are right, people from all 1232 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 5: different backgrounds talking for the betterment of society. That's how 1233 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 5: we get problems solved. I think. So I say it's 1234 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 5: always campaign finance first. Then it's tax reform to close 1235 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,600 Speaker 5: that loop because we're being fleeced labor. This is about 1236 00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:19,520 Speaker 5: anti labor. You know, if I say my system that 1237 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 5: I have published on lotos, lithium and addiction treatment, it's 1238 00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 5: anti racist, No, it's anti it's anti capitalist, pig it's 1239 00:58:30,240 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 5: anti hyper extremist capitalist. We're making money, but we can 1240 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 5: do well and good. That's what we've stopped doing in 1241 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 5: this country. 1242 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:39,520 Speaker 2: Do you think that we should we need to change 1243 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 2: because you know, since forever, it's like everybody's on this 1244 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 2: same type of schedule. You work five days a week, 1245 00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 2: eight hours a day, and this you know, you go 1246 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 2: to school the kids go to school and you look 1247 00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 2: up and you realize that you don't really spend a 1248 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,480 Speaker 2: lot of time with family. You don't spend a lot 1249 00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:57,640 Speaker 2: of time, you know, with your children and things like that. 1250 00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 2: Do you think that, like you said, capitalist having to 1251 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,640 Speaker 2: work and not really making money, So you're saying that 1252 00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:07,800 Speaker 2: we need to really change everything about the way people live, 1253 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:08,760 Speaker 2: the way people make money. 1254 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:09,440 Speaker 3: Because you work. 1255 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 2: For forty years and you retire, you only enjoy ten 1256 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 2: years of your retirement, really fifteen years of your retirement, 1257 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,040 Speaker 2: and then you die. Do you think that that's something 1258 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 2: that we need to look deep in and said, listen, 1259 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:23,160 Speaker 2: we're doing this wrong. We've been on this system for 1260 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 2: so long, our parents, grandparents, great grandparents, and it's like 1261 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:29,439 Speaker 2: there's something wrong with that. You shouldn't be spending more 1262 00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:32,600 Speaker 2: time working for someone than you are with your family 1263 00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 2: and raising your children. 1264 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 5: I think work is important. Ford used to say, it's 1265 00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:40,480 Speaker 5: love and work. That's what life is about. It's purpose 1266 00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 5: and pleasure the way I put it. But it doesn't 1267 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 5: have to be abusive, Okay, we can have I love 1268 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 5: going to work. I love mondays, love it, and I 1269 00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 5: think it's because I love the meaning behind what I do, 1270 00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,240 Speaker 5: whether I'm talking to someone who was homeless two days ago, 1271 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,880 Speaker 5: whether I'm talking to you know, someone who has the 1272 01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:06,480 Speaker 5: ability to really make change financially for a lot of people. 1273 01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:10,240 Speaker 5: But it's the abuse part that I hope ends. You know, 1274 01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:13,760 Speaker 5: in Europe they've done it pretty well for a long time. 1275 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 5: You know, they've paid people a living wage, they've given 1276 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 5: people enough vacation, and they are labor sensitive. Good ideas 1277 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,040 Speaker 5: still come out of there. But do we do we 1278 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:30,400 Speaker 5: need the extremism here where we have all you know, 1279 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 5: all this wealth continuing to be concentrated and deifying it. 1280 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:40,040 Speaker 5: Then you know that's eventually. I don't think millionaires and 1281 01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 5: billionaires want to walk around engated communities, do they? Are 1282 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:46,960 Speaker 5: you protected like that? 1283 01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:47,240 Speaker 4: Right? 1284 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:50,480 Speaker 5: I think if I'm hurting someone like that, that's that's 1285 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:50,880 Speaker 5: hurting me. 1286 01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 1: Well. I think one of the few good things that 1287 01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 1: did well, not good that came from COVID, but a 1288 01:00:56,360 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 1: realization we had was that that our work day don't 1289 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 1: really get much done. People were working for three hours 1290 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 1: at home during COVID and we're getting just as much 1291 01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,840 Speaker 1: done as that eight hour day, and we're probably in 1292 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 1: a better mood. Of course, it was COVID, everyone was 1293 01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:13,840 Speaker 1: feeling the way they felt, but you did have some 1294 01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 1: more time to find yourself, I would say, because that 1295 01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 1: going to the office five days a week. I think companies, 1296 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:24,040 Speaker 1: now that New York is opening back, are doing limited offices. 1297 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 1: We don't even need this. This is kind of crazy. 1298 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 1: Come in twice a week. We'll get shit done that way. 1299 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 5: And yet I'll tell you it is in the room 1300 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,280 Speaker 5: where it happens, not the zoom where it happens. Yes, 1301 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,480 Speaker 5: right right. I like being here, I like meeting you guys. 1302 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 5: I feel like we have a good connection and energy here. 1303 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 5: And yet I think a hybrid approach is what we're 1304 01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:44,320 Speaker 5: headed for a few days a week. Men and women 1305 01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 5: still need to hunt. They still get a thrill out 1306 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 5: of putting on the wing tips and going to work 1307 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 5: rather than staying in you know, striped sweatpants. 1308 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:55,440 Speaker 1: Yes, they're comfortable, They're very comfortable. Bought them during COVID. 1309 01:01:56,320 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 1: We spoke yesterday briefly about treating ADHD and how that's 1310 01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 1: you know, for the last how many years has been going? 1311 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,760 Speaker 1: I want to ask, not only would children, but with adults. 1312 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:13,840 Speaker 1: I find people especially around my age, are now have 1313 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:17,919 Speaker 1: adult add and I don't know if that's because half 1314 01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 1: of our life was in front of a screen. It 1315 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 1: could be it, But I did want to get in 1316 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:23,480 Speaker 1: to that and how we treat it, not only with 1317 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:24,840 Speaker 1: children but with adults. 1318 01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:29,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's a really good question. Because while 1319 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:32,240 Speaker 5: I'm against, you know, the overuse of benzos, because they're 1320 01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 5: toxic medicines. It's alcohol and a pill. It reduces rem sleep, 1321 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 5: it causes depression and Worson's anxiety. It's kind of like 1322 01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 5: an opiate for mental health. I am pro the use 1323 01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:47,200 Speaker 5: of stimulants responsibly, all right, And this is a place 1324 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 5: where in general, women and people of color have been underdiagnosed, undertreated. 1325 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:56,120 Speaker 5: You know, back in the day, you had a classroom 1326 01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:59,720 Speaker 5: full of kids. I went to public school in New York, diverse. 1327 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 5: If a white kid was misbehaving, well, let's talk to 1328 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 5: his parents. It must be something wrong. Black kids misbehaving, 1329 01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:08,760 Speaker 5: you're just a bad kid. You're going to principal's office. Okay. 1330 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 5: If I'm misbehaving, I'm getting beaten later, basically, But these 1331 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 5: were the differences. And if a girl has ADHD at 1332 01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:19,600 Speaker 5: that time, she's just spacing out, sitting quietly in class. 1333 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 5: So no one knows until she gets an F so 1334 01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 5: once we properly address Okay, are you having serious problems 1335 01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 5: with efficiency, right things, taking longer, losing things, procrastination, disorganization, 1336 01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 5: you know, using nicotine, caffeine, sugar excessively. Then let's go 1337 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,200 Speaker 5: and do some further testing on it. And if we 1338 01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:48,640 Speaker 5: find that there is you know, a high degree of 1339 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:53,520 Speaker 5: score on the ASRS scale. That's a Harvard Stanford Adult 1340 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:55,959 Speaker 5: ADHD Self Report scale. I use it all the time. 1341 01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 5: You look at that, and if you find you're scoring high, okay, 1342 01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 5: let's treat it. Let's use a touch of adderall in 1343 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,720 Speaker 5: the morning with breakfast, and I say, pills and skills. 1344 01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:09,680 Speaker 5: I have this system called oldies. It's a different channel here. 1345 01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 5: But occupation, love, diet, intoxication, exercise, sleep. If we adjust 1346 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 5: these categories and we give you the right medicine, we 1347 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:23,280 Speaker 5: see better health, health outcomes and better income into your pocket. 1348 01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:27,600 Speaker 5: And that's what we've partially done in our program down 1349 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:31,080 Speaker 5: on Avenue D. In fact, Mayor Atoms Mayor Elect Atoms 1350 01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:35,480 Speaker 5: mentioned this. He said half of Riker's more has dyslexia 1351 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 5: learning disability ADHD. If we treat this early, not only 1352 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:45,720 Speaker 5: do we get more productive young people of color. But 1353 01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 5: we have reduction in impulsivity and crime later because then 1354 01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:55,080 Speaker 5: they don't feel frustrated to medicate that they don't feel 1355 01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 5: obliged to medicate that frustration of not being in college, 1356 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:02,240 Speaker 5: not having the right job, having to join, you know, 1357 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:08,240 Speaker 5: unscrupulous gangs and such. There is an immense potential that 1358 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,960 Speaker 5: we haven't unlocked to just help our kids. Instead, we 1359 01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 5: use hammers. Right, You think investing in bigger sledge hammers 1360 01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:20,320 Speaker 5: like whack them all, that's helping our society. No, it's 1361 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:24,520 Speaker 5: it's inflaming those same people. We need to make the 1362 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 5: wood more hospitable, so the nails they want to stay 1363 01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:27,720 Speaker 5: in it. 1364 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:31,400 Speaker 2: Why do you think that, especially in the black community, 1365 01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:35,400 Speaker 2: Why do you think that therapy and seeing a therapists 1366 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 2: gets such a negative condensation? 1367 01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:41,440 Speaker 5: Well, I mean we can go back to Tuskegee and 1368 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:45,720 Speaker 5: such right, in terms of mistrust and medicine and betrayal 1369 01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:49,480 Speaker 5: of black population. Frankly, I'll tell you that medicine has 1370 01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:54,000 Speaker 5: messed with everybody. We've injected people with cancer and that 1371 01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:57,760 Speaker 5: they we still have cancer centers named after that doctor. Okay, crazy, 1372 01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 5: I know, crazy right? Sorry, I wasn't me but you know, 1373 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 5: I mean, I think we still do this now, right. 1374 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:08,440 Speaker 5: Chemotherapy is basically a nuclear attack on all of your cells. 1375 01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:11,920 Speaker 5: We manage with the with the medicine we have to 1376 01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 5: try and learn. COVID is a massive experiment in the 1377 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:16,919 Speaker 5: terms in terms of who's doing it well right now. 1378 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:23,120 Speaker 5: But I think that the bigger mistrust is how black 1379 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:25,959 Speaker 5: people have been treated, right. It's it's harder to gain 1380 01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 5: trust when medicine has screwed you too, and you're supposed 1381 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 5: to be pure and you know, sacred and secular, and 1382 01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:35,880 Speaker 5: yet you know, in this country, it's harder, you know, 1383 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 5: to treat African Americans because of the legacy of slavery, 1384 01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:44,800 Speaker 5: right and how it's been used to improve the bottom line. 1385 01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:48,400 Speaker 5: When I talk with, you know, by African American patients, 1386 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 5: I'm trying to spend even more time with them. I'm 1387 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:55,520 Speaker 5: trying to not press if they are not ready, it's okay, 1388 01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 5: I think sometimes just planting the seed and letting them 1389 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 5: know that you're not going to push them to an 1390 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:06,959 Speaker 5: uncomfortable place. Even though right now African American vaccination rates 1391 01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:10,280 Speaker 5: are lower. You know, all I can do is provide 1392 01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 5: love and encouragement as to when they're ready. But I 1393 01:07:13,680 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 5: beg them, sometimes with tears in my eyes, sometimes with 1394 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:19,440 Speaker 5: their children next to them, like please take care of 1395 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:23,240 Speaker 5: her because she's going to get exposed, this young girl. 1396 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 5: And if you don't vaccinate her, you know, I'll say 1397 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 5: that I was begging you to, but I'll treat her anyway. 1398 01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:35,440 Speaker 5: And by the way, lithium as an immune mineral is 1399 01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:39,440 Speaker 5: showing immense promise because, like I said before, it reduces suicide. Right, 1400 01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:42,120 Speaker 5: it reduces cell death is really what it does. It 1401 01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:45,640 Speaker 5: keeps you from not killing yourself, your own cells from 1402 01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:49,480 Speaker 5: killing themselves. And the cause of much of COVID death 1403 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:55,120 Speaker 5: is the cytokind storm. That's your own red lights, your fire, 1404 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 5: lighting up your whole body, drowning in your own spit 1405 01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:04,040 Speaker 5: in your lungs. It reduces that. So of the three 1406 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:07,880 Speaker 5: hundred patients that I've treated at that center, zero hospitalization, 1407 01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:08,640 Speaker 5: zero deaths. 1408 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:13,960 Speaker 1: Well, crazy, you brought up a rikers, and I did 1409 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:17,840 Speaker 1: want to ask you. Of course, the prison system is 1410 01:08:18,320 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 1: not to rehabilitate. It's literally to jail a human being. Yeah, 1411 01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:26,040 Speaker 1: where do you see And again it's an obvious question, 1412 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:28,000 Speaker 1: but where do you see the prison system has been wrong? 1413 01:08:28,760 --> 01:08:32,479 Speaker 1: Specifically with mental health and how to abilitate a person 1414 01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:35,400 Speaker 1: like that, because not everyone's doing life. They're coming back 1415 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:38,800 Speaker 1: into society and will probably fall back into that system 1416 01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:42,880 Speaker 1: because they're not treated correctly in prison. And how do 1417 01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:44,800 Speaker 1: you feel about people that say, all right, how come 1418 01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,439 Speaker 1: the prisoners are getting this free treatment and this free 1419 01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 1: attention instead of some of the citizens that are going 1420 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,559 Speaker 1: out every day paying their taxes and still don't get 1421 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:56,800 Speaker 1: the opportunity to have the mental health attention that they need. 1422 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:01,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think those are both that points right. But 1423 01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 5: because if we started to, and we should, it's just 1424 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:11,160 Speaker 5: a waste of money to house someone there and worsen 1425 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:15,799 Speaker 5: their perception of society and let them come out even angrier. 1426 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:18,760 Speaker 5: I mean, that's not there's no point to that. That's 1427 01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,680 Speaker 5: just just might as well burn money. So at the 1428 01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:27,760 Speaker 5: very least, can we give them a significant library, Can 1429 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:32,799 Speaker 5: we give them significant resources? Can we not harm them 1430 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 5: medically in there? Can we do that much and just 1431 01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:39,800 Speaker 5: say okay, you're here, we want you to leave with 1432 01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:42,720 Speaker 5: as much time as possible in your life to use 1433 01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,360 Speaker 5: it for the betterment of yourself and others, and not 1434 01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:48,120 Speaker 5: make it. We're not going to make it Shangri law. 1435 01:09:48,240 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 5: It's not a Norwegia, not going to be in Norwegian prison. 1436 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:54,640 Speaker 5: But we also, I think I gotta talk about the 1437 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,639 Speaker 5: universal or lack of universal health care in this country. 1438 01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:02,800 Speaker 5: In this country, your health care is basically, don't get 1439 01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:04,280 Speaker 5: sick and if you do, dive fast. 1440 01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:05,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1441 01:10:05,880 --> 01:10:12,720 Speaker 5: So we invest in you know, sugar subsidies and get 1442 01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 5: everyone to a place where they can't see their toes 1443 01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:19,080 Speaker 5: and then we pay a lot of money to doctors 1444 01:10:19,120 --> 01:10:23,439 Speaker 5: to rotor root their cardiovascular system. I mean, this is 1445 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:27,679 Speaker 5: ridiculous to make money abusing people from both ends, rather 1446 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:31,040 Speaker 5: than say, let's have a tax system where everyone keeps 1447 01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:36,559 Speaker 5: every dollar. Okay, it's transparent in Congress, everyone's wearing their 1448 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:40,320 Speaker 5: pins like Nascar, all right, everyone has limited campaign financing. 1449 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:43,320 Speaker 5: Everyone keeps that every single dollar from their paycheck. But 1450 01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 5: stuff is taxed more. So soda is tax more than water. 1451 01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 5: Haygoovian taxation, bat taxation, sin taxes. That'll work. We tax 1452 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:56,360 Speaker 5: the hell out of guns and ammo. We don't need, 1453 01:10:57,080 --> 01:11:00,240 Speaker 5: you know, to ban anything at all. And I think 1454 01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:03,280 Speaker 5: if you want to just have the proper documentation right 1455 01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:05,160 Speaker 5: and the proper background. 1456 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:07,439 Speaker 3: On that, how do you as a as a doctor. 1457 01:11:07,720 --> 01:11:10,760 Speaker 2: Uh, you know, sitting and talking with your patients, how 1458 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,719 Speaker 2: does that affect you and your and your mental health? 1459 01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:16,840 Speaker 2: Like taking in this energy and these and these these 1460 01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:19,200 Speaker 2: stories and trying to help people with their mental health, 1461 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:22,599 Speaker 2: how does that affect you as a doctor's. 1462 01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:23,839 Speaker 5: It goes You know, I think a lot of doctors 1463 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:28,400 Speaker 5: have been suffering these days. You know me, I don't 1464 01:11:28,400 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 5: put myself in that in that kind of harms way right. 1465 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:35,439 Speaker 5: God bless the the ICU docs, the nurses and the 1466 01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 5: people that have shown up work and sometimes feel hopeless 1467 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 5: with the treatments they provided. Seeing nothing but death is 1468 01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:48,400 Speaker 5: feeling powerless and not even being able to treat what 1469 01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 5: they know how to treat well because it's all crowded 1470 01:11:52,280 --> 01:11:56,960 Speaker 5: with COVID. So I treat doctors myself, and I feel 1471 01:11:56,960 --> 01:11:59,680 Speaker 5: their pain. I've really it's been such a tough time, 1472 01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:03,120 Speaker 5: matic time for them. And we're basically skilled labor. Okay, 1473 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,479 Speaker 5: at this point, we're not you know what we used 1474 01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:09,240 Speaker 5: to be in terms of I don't know, island hopping, 1475 01:12:09,280 --> 01:12:12,680 Speaker 5: moguls or anything. Food is medicine. Food is medicine comes 1476 01:12:12,680 --> 01:12:17,760 Speaker 5: from Hippocrates. Okay, that's way back, absolutely true, And we 1477 01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 5: are poisoning. The Western diet is pleasure ridden. The major 1478 01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:27,720 Speaker 5: food group that kids get is tomatoes from ketchup, as 1479 01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:31,000 Speaker 5: my daughter calls it. Kepich loves that stuff and I 1480 01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 5: do too. I do love French fries too, and that's 1481 01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:37,960 Speaker 5: the major vegetable that they get. Yeah, okay, beef is 1482 01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:41,560 Speaker 5: way too cheap in this country, and it's not symbiotic. 1483 01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 5: It's parasitic to feed off of cows like this. In 1484 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,920 Speaker 5: my land, it's there. Holy. I still like a good steak, 1485 01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:49,760 Speaker 5: but it has to be rare and grass fed. I 1486 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:52,960 Speaker 5: mean medium rare, but rarely taken, if at all. So 1487 01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:55,800 Speaker 5: the point is, I think we have to go with 1488 01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 5: a symbiotic diet long term. The things I tell my 1489 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,840 Speaker 5: patients three liters of water and as many as much 1490 01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:06,000 Speaker 5: beans and greens as you can take every day. Go 1491 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,800 Speaker 5: vegan throughout the day. At night, if you want, sparingly, 1492 01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 5: go with meat. But absolutely, you know, Game Changers, great movie. 1493 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 5: You guys have probably seen it. I think it should 1494 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:23,200 Speaker 5: be awarded because it may single handedly freaking think the 1495 01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:26,519 Speaker 5: Mets shouldn't should change their diet. Look at these people, 1496 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,800 Speaker 5: the most injured team in baseball. One of my dreams 1497 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,599 Speaker 5: is to take over. Let me take over your health 1498 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 5: and you will not be injured. As a team, we 1499 01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 5: will head to the promised Land, that's the playoffs. So 1500 01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:43,000 Speaker 5: I'm all for that as a performance component. I mean, 1501 01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:47,160 Speaker 5: I'm forty five. I can still I can still go 1502 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:50,880 Speaker 5: with anyone on the court, and I ride a fixed 1503 01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:53,719 Speaker 5: gear up and down the spine of Manhattan every day. 1504 01:13:54,040 --> 01:13:56,400 Speaker 5: So I'm for you there. I think it's hard for 1505 01:13:56,400 --> 01:13:59,479 Speaker 5: people to go the extremest way. You're full, But if 1506 01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:02,240 Speaker 5: you talk to and say we love you. This is 1507 01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:04,519 Speaker 5: not about shaming you for your weight. This is never 1508 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 5: about that. This is about love and encouragement. We want 1509 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:12,000 Speaker 5: you to be capable, more capable than ever. Good to yourself. 1510 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:15,240 Speaker 5: Introduce these things. I never tell people what to not eat. 1511 01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:19,200 Speaker 5: Just add more greens, throw it in the smoothie, throw 1512 01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 5: it in the pasta sauce, go with chickpeapasta, take the 1513 01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:26,559 Speaker 5: mix it up hybrid style. It'll be better for the environment, 1514 01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:30,520 Speaker 5: It'll be better for your microbiome. That's what was screaming 1515 01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:33,720 Speaker 5: when you went vegan. You had die off of bacteria 1516 01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:38,479 Speaker 5: throughout your gut. So be more regular, you know, oddly 1517 01:14:38,520 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 5: talk about bowel movements a lot with my patients. I 1518 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:44,400 Speaker 5: want them to be very regular because that means food 1519 01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:48,360 Speaker 5: is not staying and then causing inflammation in your body. 1520 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:54,439 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't have anything else if there's other points. 1521 01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 1: This is like we went through to meet him about 1522 01:14:57,439 --> 01:14:57,800 Speaker 1: my father. 1523 01:14:57,880 --> 01:15:00,439 Speaker 5: Shit.

There's only one 1555 01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:25,120 Speaker 5: and low dose lithium.

But you know, I just want to 1562 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 5: massage out the arthritis of the hand that feeds me. 1563 01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:52,760 Speaker 3: Get it. 1564 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,479 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for your time.
