00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 5: back from Europe. I did a few shows in Europe.

58
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: It's fun. So are the nurses in Europe? Are they

59
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: buying into you as much as nurses in America? They

60
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:35,440

61
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 5: I mean, we all go through the same stuff, which

62
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 5: is absolutely wild. So I think that's what's so cool

63
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 5: and special about it. Wow, right, good for you.

64
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,839

66
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: for teachers, neat nurses, teachers ems. I mean, for some reason,

67
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: they all gravitate toward our show. I don't know why.

68
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: What is it you guys like about our show?

69
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,880

Speaker 5: on your show, and everyone's so excited that I'm back.

71
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 5: It is like you guys are like heroes like us,

72
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 5: Like you guys, wake up early when the whole world

73
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 5: is asleep and I have to say I'm a night

74
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 5: shift nurse. So getting up for this show was really

75
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 5: hard for me. Typically I'm like leaving work and then

76
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 5: going out to get a mimosa, right, you know.

77
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: Not for a long chew. We do that too, cocktails.

78
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: So okay, So okay, let's start with a tour. You're

79
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: starting in Alaska, yep, and you're gonna end up in Sydney,

80
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: Australia at the Opera House.

81
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

82
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: Okay, So ten years ago, would you ever have dreamed

83
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: in a million years, Blake, you would be Nurse Blake

84
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: on stage at the Opera House.

85
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 5: Inside, I never thought I was gonna get into comedy,

86
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 5: you know, going into nursing. It's not like, oh I

87
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 5: can't wait to be on stage to talk about nursing.

88
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 5: It's just kind of happened, like naturally and organically, so

89
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 5: I didn't manifest it or anything. It just kind of happened.

90
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 5: So it is really cool and it's really really special.

91
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, there's gotta be a lot going on

92
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: with and every nurse listening right now is going to

93
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: agree with this. Probably, you guys understand each other in

94
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: a way you speak. You speak the same language. You've

95
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: been through the same situations, things that we can't even fathom.

96
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: I mean, you've touched everything, You've smelled everything, right, And

97
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: I mean we've all been peede on in some way,

98
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: haven't we all?

99
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 3: Though maybe that's our card if you're a parent, A

100
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 3: lot of parents have been.

101
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 5: I remember I was working as shift and it was

102
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 5: like the end of my shift and I had a

103
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 5: piece so freaking bad, and there was a code blue

104
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 5: that was happening, so like run in to go help,

105
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 5: but I had to pee. I had this full bladder.

106
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 5: And we revived the patient and we go to turn

107
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 5: him and then he starts like ping down my leg.

108
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 5: But I had a piece so bad I thought I

109
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 5: was peeing at that moment.

110
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: I should have done it. That's what I'm saying. I know,

111
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: I like it. A nurse would never say I had

112
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: to pee. A nurse would say I had a full bladder. Well,

113
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,799
Speaker 1: you actually talk about the actual organ.

114
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, we say I have a full It's so funny

115
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 5: because there are bladder scanners. There's typically always one bla

116
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 5: scanner in every hospital. All the nurses know you can

117
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 5: never find it, and you scan a patient's blatter to

118
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 5: see how much like gear and they have. But sometimes

119
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 5: we want to see how much you're and we have

120
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 5: in our bladder because we've been holding it all.

121
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: Day at the fun behind the scenes, we don't have

122
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: time to go to the bathroom. No, I mean, lives

123
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 1: are saved because you decided not to go to the

124
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 1: bad We're healthcare heroes. So let's go down the list

125
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: of things we didn't know existed. The bladder scanner number.

126
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 5: One, and I brought a gift for all of you

127
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 5: that this is a pure wick. I'm going to open

128
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 5: it up and you guys are gonna guess what this

129
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 5: is for.

130
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: Okay, it's called a pure wick.

131
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 2: That's called candle.

132
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 5: It's not a candle. It's blue with some sort of foamy.

133
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 1: Towel man to it. Yep, Okay, it's got to sterile

134
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: clean this towel. That's a part of this tube. Is

135
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: that absorbent liquid.

136
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 3: I really hope that tube doesn't go anywhere. I think

137
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 3: it does somewhere not in like a small and then

138
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 3: it clearly catches some type of liquid.

139
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 5: It does catch some type of liquid penis, So no,

140
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 5: that does not that actually gets hooked up to a suction.

141
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 5: So think of this getting hooked up to a vacuum.

142
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: Okay. Oh so so it sucks through the.

143
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 5: Cloth, yes, but what does it sucks? I would sweat?

144
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 2: No, no, no, you're in yes, okay, but wait a minute,

145
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:26,919
Speaker 2: but where.

146
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: Does it go in your pants?

147
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 5: So this is an external female catheter. Oh so it's

148
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 5: like a shi wei okay, okay, okay, and you just

149
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 5: place it like.

150
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: A hot dog right there. This is where your job,

151
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: your lady goes yep, and you hook it up to

152
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: suctions and then it just observes.

153
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 2: All the that's not going in anything. It's going on.

154
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 5: I'm going on something. So a guy actually invented this

155
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 5: for his wife when these weren't a thing, and he

156
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 5: like got a pole pump and like a towel and

157
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 5: like rigged it together and made like the first pure wick.

158
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 5: Now he's basically rich. Yeah, just one. But listen, I

159
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 5: tried to make a gold one for all of you,

160
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,559
Speaker 5: but it just didn't work.

161
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: Well, if it does its job, it'll end up being

162
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: gold anyway, and you could actually like buy these for

163
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: your house. Well, I was wondering, it's just like the

164
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: only purewic in New York City and they're running around

165
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: the hospital looking for it right now, like, where's where's

166
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: the pure wick ga? Exactly. I was talking to Blake

167
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: about catheter. What do you call him through like which

168
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: I had during my one surgery? Explain it? That's what

169
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: you you explained yep.

170
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 5: So fullly catheter is in long tube that goes into

171
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 5: your penis.

172
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly.

173
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 5: It's very easy to place on males for the most part,

174
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 5: if you can get good access, right it's it's kind

175
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 5: of thick, and some guys they get nervous and it

176
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 5: just like goes away, you know, you can't really find

177
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 5: with their penis is, So that's always fun.

178
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: I want to come back to that in a minute,

179
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: but go ahead.

180
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 5: But it's harder to place a fully catheter on a

181
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 5: female because you have to find the wink, the wink,

182
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 5: the wink, and that's the opening where you place the

183
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 5: fully And they teach you this at nursing school. They're like,

184
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: look for the wink, which I thought was going to

185
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 5: look like you know, absolutely does not, so you just

186
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 5: have to take your best guess.

187
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know. I mean, I'm a gay guy. I

188
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:42,959
Speaker 1: don't know what a wink is do you know what?

189
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: You have a wink?

190
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 2: I had no idea you.

191
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,959
Speaker 1: Have a wink. You have a wink and you have

192
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: a wink. Stop stop stop winking at me. Okay, back

193
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: to the guys. You get nervous and so their wieners disappear, disappear.

194
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: Why is that? Because I tell you every time I'm

195
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: getting my my uh my yearly physical, as soon as

196
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: I know she's coming in the doctor, I kind of

197
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: have to extend it and pull it.

198
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 5: Out because because it gets it's scared. It's scared, it

199
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 5: gets nervous, like being in a cold shower.

200
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: Right.

201
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 5: Yeah, So either the guys get like really nervous and

202
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 5: it just hides, or they get like really excited, really

203
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 5: and it's just it's just an interesting moment.

204
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 3: But how does it get so scared that it means

205
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: But it's got to be real small. If it's getting

206
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: that scared.

207
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 5: You're usually playing peek a boo and like trying to

208
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 5: find the you know. And if we don't use a

209
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 5: fully catheter, we use a condom cath on males, So

210
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 5: it's like a condom absolutely climbing a sticky but you

211
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 5: have to like, you know, put it on like a condom.

212
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 2: Well, shrinking dinger is like a defense mechanism, right, you're

213
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 2: scared something bad might happen. Hide it.

214
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's a part of the Yeah, I

215
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: thought this through. I have.

216
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 2: I thought this through, and I wish other body parts

217
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:53,719
Speaker 2: could do the same thing.

218
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: Which really brings me to my next profession. I want

219
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: to work in a doctor and be the official physical fluffer.

220
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 2: I feel like, if you want it, you'll never get higher.

221
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: That's a good point. The doctor is coming in. If

222
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: you would like for me to not make it less,

223
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: make it it's embarrassing for you. I bet that would

224
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: be a high paying job too. I don't know.

225
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 5: I wonder if insurance would cover it. It's cash pay only,

226
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:20,839
Speaker 5: I don't know.

227
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 2: I think it's I have this feeling it's not as

228
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 2: hot of a job as you would think. Some of them.

229
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: You don't want to.

230
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 5: Nurse that we've seen more private parts than anyone else.

231
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 1: I bet, Hey, Holly, say good morning to nurse Blake.

232
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: Hi Blake, how are you, Hi, Holly, how's it going?

233
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 4: It's going well?

234
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 3: Thank you?

235
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 5: I see your message. You wish I was your work hobby.

236
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 5: I wish you were my work wife.

237
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 4: I think we would have some fun together.

238
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:51,839
Speaker 5: We get fired and HR would hate us.

239
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: Holly, what is it about? What is it about Blake

240
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: you find so fascinating because we find him fascinating, but

241
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: you being in the nursing business, I mean, obviously he

242
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: knows something we don't understand.

243
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 4: He's such an advocate for nurses. He's also it's just

244
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 4: so funny obviously too. He really cares about nurses and

245
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 4: he's just amazing.

246
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: We should all care. We should all care about nurses.

247
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 5: We should we not nurses. Doctors would fail. Oh, everything

248
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 5: would fail. Yeah, everything would fail. You know what. I

249
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 5: actually came up to New York when the nurses were

250
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 5: on strike, and that was a super special, just experience.

251
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 4: Moment, so supportive of everyone.

252
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: I love you, Holly, see you look at that. But

253
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 1: you have this I don't want to say built an

254
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: audience because you I mean, I'm sure I don't know

255
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You have this audience that's

256
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: gonna like gravitate towards you and everything you think about,

257
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 1: everything you talk about, because they are talking and thinking

258
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: the same exact thing.

259
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 5: And I'm in a lucky position where I don't have

260
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 5: like hr, that's like watching me because a lot of

261
00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 5: nurses like can't say these things, you know, when you're

262
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,079
Speaker 5: tied to a hospital. So I'm in a good position

263
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 5: where I could kind of say whatever I want, what

264
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 5: every other nurse is thinking, without the fear of like

265
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 5: being reprimanded or getting in trouble.

266
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: Hey, Holly, you know he's going to be on tour.

267
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: Where do you live?

268
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,240

Speaker 1: That is you know what I can handle? Puss? Hold on,

316
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: hold on, you just made you just made the made

317
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: the noise I did. But then it was like, oh,

318
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: that's not that's okay. I can handle that. I could

319
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 1: handle Like an old wound that is just something in

320
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: a stomach, something in the stomach.

321
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 5: So there are wounds that tunnel they actually just like

322
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 5: go deep into the body, and it's our job to

323
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 5: like pack the wounds. So think of like bread, like

324
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 5: a big loaf of bread with is like a big

325
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 5: hole in it. Right, we have to like pack those

326
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 5: and clean those. But that's not the worst smell. Ever.

327
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: More gases, more gases, I don't.

328
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 2: Know, I mean number two would be the obvious.

329
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 5: It's like, yes, seed, if every nurse g I bleed,

330
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 5: g I bleed. You know when you walk into the hospital,

331
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 5: if you got a g I bleed on your floor,

332
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 5: why you just smell it like on the unit, Like

333
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 5: if you you just know, like the whole unit smells,

334
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 5: and you can't spray for breeze or nothing, because then

335
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 5: it just smells like g I bleed and for breeze

336
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 5: like it's just not good. I actually worked in surgery

337
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 5: for a little bit, and when they just burn the

338
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 5: flesh is also another smell that you can't cover up

339
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 5: with with anything.

340
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 2: How do you not puke? Good for you?

341
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: Because you did make the bar from normal? You did?

342
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: You know what it's you don't.

343
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 5: I've never gotten so sick where I had a puke before. Luckily, OK, Yeah,

344
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 5: that'd be. That would kind of be embarrassing. It would be,

345
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 5: especially if they're open. It's a patient open on the

346
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 5: surgical table.

347
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 3: Have you ever been anywhere that they say, hey, we

348
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 3: need your help. You're not on duty, but you have

349
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 3: to help anyway.

350
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: It just happened.

351
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 5: After nine years, I had to step in and help

352
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 5: save someone's life on a flight.

353
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: Thank god. There I know.

354
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 5: And I should have never been there because it was

355
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 5: Spirit Airlines.

356
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: Well there you go, I mean, come on, what's wrong?

357
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: It's an airline named after a ghost. I had been

358
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 1: waiting for this moment. Every time I'm on a flight,

359
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what I'm gonna save someone's life.

360
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: Someone's gonna get it on video. It's gonna be all

361
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: over CNN, like this nurse hero. So typically when I fly,

362
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: like I know that could happen. So I only have

363
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: like three drinks, just like just in case I have

364
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: to be a hero. So anyway, the flight, Tennant gets on,

365
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: She's like, are there any doctors, physicians on board? No one?

366
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 5: Do we have any chiropractors, dennis veterinarians.

367
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, come on, say.

368
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 5: Nurse, say nurse, say nurse, say nurse. It's like, do

369
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 5: we have a nurse on board. I'm like, yeah, nurse Flake.

370
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 5: And it's like so embarrassing, like that means nothing. And uh.

371
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 5: I get up and this guy is like coffin like

372
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 5: in the back and I'm like, oh, it's got to

373
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 5: be him, but he was just vaping.

374
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: But spared airlines. Like the rules are different. Absolutely, the

375
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: rules are different. And I get back.

376
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 5: In this patient, this woman, she's on the floor and

377
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 5: the first thing I noticed was like, oh, her eyeliner

378
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 5: doesn't matter.

379
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: Her outfit.

380
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 2: How important?

381
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: Okay, it's good. You need to make notes of these things.

382
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, And then I'm like, okay, I gotta be dramatic,

383
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 5: like I want this to be a big deal medical emergency.

384
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, scene is safe.

385
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 5: I'm like, you like call nine one one, like you

386
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 5: get the aed you film this. And then I get

387
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 5: down and I'm like, hey man, you know what's going on.

388
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 5: She's like I'm just a little dizzy. I feel like

389
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 5: I'm flying.

390
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah we are, We are good. Yeah, we're thirty thousand

391
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: feet in the air.

392
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 5: And then she starts crying and she's like I had

393
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 5: an edible, Oh.

394
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 1: The first time I had.

395
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 5: And I'm like, this is the emergency.

396
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:44,199
Speaker 1: This is the emergency. Sorry, so embarrassing. So did you

397
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: calm her down? Well? I would, yeah.

398
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 5: I calmed her down and told her a joke, and

399
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 5: then I was like, we gotta get you chips in

400
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 5: a soda. So I like, look at the flight tenant.

401
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 5: I'm like, can we get chips in a soda? And

402
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 5: it was more like this is an emergency? Can I

403
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 5: get chips and soda? And the flight Tenant's like, yeah,

404
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 5: that'll be twelve fifty sails.

405
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: So I'm a hero. You're a hero, though, you know what,

406
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: less have me looked in the mirror and said, you

407
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: know what, I'm a hero. I mean, I don't never,

408
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,679
Speaker 1: I don't think any of us could do that, but

409
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 1: you should. But for many reasons. I mean, you are

410
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: centrally located in this community of nurses. They look you're

411
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 1: looked up to, and you're worshiped. I guess you could

412
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: say that if nobody, but you're you're the mouthpiece. You're

413
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: you're the voice of so many incredibly cool nurses that

414
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 1: need that voice.

415
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 5: I'm so lucky because the whole reason why I got

416
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 5: into this is because I needed that. Like I felt

417
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 5: really lonely, burned out of the profession, and they honestly

418
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 5: saved me and helped me. So they keep me going.

419
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 5: They inspire me, and I just can't wait to meet

420
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 5: a bunch of them on my tour this fall.

421
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 1: And being a nurse for nine years, right, so you

422
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 1: were there before, and then during and then after a

423
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: pandemic yep, the pandemic, And so I must assume and

424
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: every nurse listening is going, yeah, absolutely, things are different.

425
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: The playing field has changed a lot. Yeah, any of

426
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 1: it for the good.

427
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 5: You know. I think nurses know their value now, so

428
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 5: they're not willing to just be walked on. That's where

429
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 5: you see a lot more strikes happening for the first

430
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 5: time in like many many years. And if nurses are

431
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 5: in an unhealthy work environment, they're getting a new job,

432
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 5: they'll go across the street and get paid more. So

433
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 5: I do see that happening. There's still a lot more

434
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 5: work to be done in healthcare, but I think nurses

435
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 5: realize that they have a voice too, and that they're valuable. Now,

436
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 5: if you want to be a nurse, not going to school,

437
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 5: just come down to Florida, because I don't know if

438
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 5: you heard about the fake nursing degree what. Yeah, there's

439
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 5: like there are like these fake nursing schools in Florida

440
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 5: that were given out like fake degrees for like ten

441
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 5: thousand dollars and.

442
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 3: Then they're going and working in like hospitals and stuff.

443
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 5: If they could pass the inclex there's like seventy six hundred.

444
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: Now I'm a real nurse.

445
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 5: I graduated in Florida, but I went to a real school,

446
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 5: you see, just like prove it. But these other schools,

447
00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 5: it was like Sacred Heart Nursing Program International sounds legit.

448
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 5: It sounds so legit. Yes, Sarah's Living Room Nursing program.

449
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: So legit. That's frightening. I mean because you hear these

450
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 1: stories everyone so well, like a dentist who works out

451
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 1: of the trunk of his car in a Walmart, and

452
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: you're like, and then people get hurt and maybe die.

453
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: Y'all see that coming. I hate going to the dentist. Yeah,

454
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: you got beautiful teeth, thank you. I started flossing every day.

455
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 1: I started.

456
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 5: I did it because every time I go to the dentist,

457
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 5: I'd be in so much pain. I leave their bleeding

458
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 5: right because I like don't floss enough. I like need

459
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 5: a blood transfusion. After this, I'm like, ah shit, I

460
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 5: should floss every day.

461
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 1: Yeah you should. Did you say the S word?

462
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 4: Yeah?

463
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah. If you do curse,

464
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: you have to push this button right here. No, not dumb.

465
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: How do I do that? You just push it up

466
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 1: so you can say a nasty word and push that

467
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 1: button and it goes away. Say a nasty word and

468
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: then press the button. But you don't have to. I won't.

00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to do it now. I'm nervous, so nervous.

470
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 1: You should be nervous. This thing really works. Ever, that's

471
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,199
Speaker 1: a lot of buttons. We've covered a lot here. Let

472
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 1: me let me bring up to speed with Nurse Blake

473
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: a new tour. You're starting in Alaska July twenty fifth,

474
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: and then you how many days.

475
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 5: I'm doing one hundred shows through December twenty second, so

476
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 5: I'm on a bus for like five and a half months.

477
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, it's pretty wild. It's a lot.

478
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 2: How's the bus getting to Australia.

479
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: Good question.

480
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 5: Yeah there's a tunnel. Okay, there's something. Well it's got

481
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 5: to get to Alaska too. Oh yeah, oh there's land, Yeah,

482
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 5: there is there is land.

483
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 1: But I don't know. This seems like a big tour.

484
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: You kind of wonder, and we talk about it all

485
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 1: the time when we have artists come in who do concerts. Yeah,

486
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,959
Speaker 1: we actually do have a sign backstage that says you

487
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: are in New York City, so when they go out

488
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: on stage, they know not to say Cleveland. Yeah, maybe

489
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: you need one of these.

490
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 5: I need one of those because it's a lot of cities.

491
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 5: It's so funny because I will play any city there's

492
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 5: a hospital, because there's nurses everywhere, right, So I could

493
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 5: put me in a rural area and a busy area

494
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,199
Speaker 5: nurses come out, you know.

495
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 1: So it has me thinking what other professions are there

496
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: where someone should be like the next stand up comedian, teachers,

497
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: teacher attendants.

498
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 5: Okay, let's talk. Let's talk about all these communities at

499
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 5: go ahead. I would say I like bartenders. I say

500
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 5: they see the same things like all the time, retail workers,

501
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 5: retail workers, hair stylists. Yeah, okay, and what about like

502
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 5: talk show hosts.

503
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, radio radio yeah, that would fill a room, a closet.

504
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, scary questions on the text.

505
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, somebody said that they've been studying on the they've

506
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,080

515
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,600

Speaker 1: no no doors on are scary? Okay.

550
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 5: There are a few things like as a nurse, I

551
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 5: wouldn't do. One is like ride a motorcycle without a

552
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 5: helmet on.

553
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 1: Yeah you've seen those. Oh yeah, come through.

554
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 3: The doors, right, ride a motorcycle with.

555
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: What other live advice do you have for us? Yeah?

556
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 5: So I'm the nurses perspective. Don't do drugs, okay, kids

557
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 5: don't do drugs. And you know what is also really scary.

558
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 5: What I know everyone loves though, are those those scooters

559
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 5: that get you around town. Right, there's the accidents on those,

560
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 5: and we typically get those when we're drunk. Right, you

561
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 5: don't want to wait for burn uber, so you hop

562
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 5: on those scooters. They are so dangerous, all the ones

563
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 5: that we just started singing in New York. Oh do

564
