Speaker:

check 1 2 well

Speaker:

hello there boyfriend how are you this fine day

Speaker:

I'm really good is it working

Speaker:

yes excellent

Speaker:

let's not talk shit

Speaker:

I'm afraid to ask but I have a great question

Speaker:

I don't even know what I was gonna say

Speaker:

I'm so disturbed right now

Speaker:

she's afraid to ask but Jamie

Speaker:

Doctor Erica I'm gonna ask you a question

Speaker:

I think I'm afraid to ask

Speaker:

but I'm just gonna do it right out of the gate

Speaker:

all right

Speaker:

last night I feel like we have a very healthy sex life

Speaker:

do you agree yeah

Speaker:

last night we were about we were

Speaker:

there might have been sex last night

Speaker:

but we weren't sure right

Speaker:

and then when the kitchen

Speaker:

and I start talking about snoring

Speaker:

cause I'm going through a thing where

Speaker:

I'm trying to figure out like

Speaker:

why snoring I'm trying all these different devices

Speaker:

and then you said

Speaker:

you said something like

Speaker:

hey by the way

Speaker:

everybody farts in their sleep and you know

Speaker:

I hate fart I was like

Speaker:

oh man and then you were like

Speaker:

oh yeah cause your device would record it if you farted

Speaker:

instead of snort that's what made you say it

Speaker:

I thought it was kind of funny to hear that

Speaker:

and then you go

Speaker:

and when you die you're gonna shit yourself probably

Speaker:

yeah so I was wondering

Speaker:

yeah is that the same as saying hey

Speaker:

let's not have sex tonight

Speaker:

was that why you told me that

Speaker:

stuff no it was just like a fun fact okay

Speaker:

well I worked for both

Speaker:

I was talking about how like when you're asleep

Speaker:

you can't control yourself

Speaker:

so people often will be like

Speaker:

I never fart around my partner

Speaker:

but you fart at night

Speaker:

cause you have a relaxation of your anal sphincter

Speaker:

so it just happens

Speaker:

don't say anything and then when you die

Speaker:

a lot of people have that same relaxation

Speaker:

because they don't have any muscle tone immediately

Speaker:

so they will defecate

Speaker:

that's the only time

Speaker:

sleeping is the only time where I relax my sphincter

Speaker:

all other times I'm on the I'm on high alert

Speaker:

even hearing heterosexual sex I'm like

Speaker:

let's keep our hands to ourselves high alert

Speaker:

do you know that's the thing sometimes

Speaker:

no continue that one

Speaker:

there's this new thing going around

Speaker:

the kids are trying it where you got to be careful

Speaker:

sometimes a woman

Speaker:

will start to head towards that area of your body

Speaker:

and um

Speaker:

I've had I kind of

Speaker:

have had somebody kind of go in that direction

Speaker:

I had to go hey

Speaker:

hey hey hey hey no means no okay

Speaker:

that's when um

Speaker:

that's the that's the precise moment

Speaker:

I stopped letting my anus ever relax

Speaker:

was that moment

Speaker:

does that surprise you

Speaker:

I just have so many different drays

Speaker:

I could go with this

Speaker:

and I don't know what one I wanna take

Speaker:

how far she get

Speaker:

not far it's like um

Speaker:

like halfway behind the ball sack

Speaker:

she's headed that it was circling the drain eww

Speaker:

kind of like eww wait

Speaker:

you mean like your buttholes a drain

Speaker:

yes all I was thinking like your penis was a drain

Speaker:

like the pipe

Speaker:

and she was like going around it like circumnavigating

Speaker:

I apologize maybe not a great metaphor

Speaker:

is that where they came up with the ringer

Speaker:

ring job rim job

Speaker:

rim job I don't I'm not 100% sure what that is

Speaker:

I just feel like now whenever you're talking to me go

Speaker:

let's not let's not do that

Speaker:

we have a lot of questions that we have to get to okay

Speaker:

well usually at the beginning of the episode

Speaker:

I like to ask you hey

Speaker:

what direction should we go

Speaker:

but this time I think I would like to around the ring

Speaker:

choose for you

Speaker:

would you mind that yeah

Speaker:

yeah but make it like a good one

Speaker:

a punch

Speaker:

I have a question coming in straight to the face from

Speaker:

about a colonoscopy

Speaker:

not the punch I wanted

Speaker:

we've covered colonoscopies right

Speaker:

yeah kind of a lot extensively

Speaker:

what else you want me

Speaker:

you talked about assholes today already

Speaker:

is this like your theme was a good Segway

Speaker:

I would not ask you this question

Speaker:

if it wasn't something we did not cover

Speaker:

last time we talked about me getting colonoscopy

Speaker:

pre and post colonoscopy

Speaker:

this question I have not heard before

Speaker:

and I did not have this experience

Speaker:

it's a very specific question

Speaker:

I don't know if you can really answer this

Speaker:

it doesn't I don't know if this is a medical question

Speaker:

I'm gonna play this here we go

Speaker:

hi Jamie and Doctor Erica my name is Mark

Speaker:

I live in Valencia California

Speaker:

so here's what happened to me

Speaker:

I got done with my colonoscopy

Speaker:

I'm in the recovery room I'm groggy

Speaker:

I'm just waking up so I'm sort of half and half up

Speaker:

I felt very bloated I felt very gassy and I released

Speaker:

I farted and it was so long

Speaker:

it was it was so long that I knew

Speaker:

no one would believe me

Speaker:

when I told them how long it was

Speaker:

and matter of fact when it's done I go did that happen

Speaker:

I go or did I dream that

Speaker:

and it was it couldn't even also know

Speaker:

and wait a minute I think I have another one luckily

Speaker:

I had brought my cell phone with me

Speaker:

so I grabbed it and I you know

Speaker:

had enough consciousness to sort of hit record

Speaker:

I recorded the second one it was 24 seconds long haha

Speaker:

that one was a fraction of how long

Speaker:

well over a minute

Speaker:

I guess my question is impressive possible

Speaker:

where did the air come from

Speaker:

and why don't they give you a heads up beforehand

Speaker:

if this is normal so that you're not freaked out

Speaker:

I thought you were gonna say he actually recorded it

Speaker:

was gonna let us hear his 24 second fart

Speaker:

I would have enjoyed that well

Speaker:

did part of you and you heard that think oh

Speaker:

that's not that's fake

Speaker:

did any part of you think that's not real

Speaker:

I don't know about 24 seconds

Speaker:

cause I did when I heard it

Speaker:

I go that's not real

Speaker:

do you have it what are your what are your opinion on

Speaker:

um

Speaker:

is that a common thing I feel like yeah

Speaker:

you have to fart before you leave like they make you

Speaker:

well it depends not everyone does this anymore

Speaker:

but oftentimes

Speaker:

they'll insufflate your colon and your intestines

Speaker:

that's what air inside to like

Speaker:

help see if the visualization is like impaired

Speaker:

you know that's why I relax my you know

Speaker:

cause I'm afraid someone's gonna inflate

Speaker:

so save my colon

Speaker:

so I keep it like you're calling by the way

Speaker:

it's this is a true question ah

Speaker:

it's not a common practice for everybody now

Speaker:

so like you didn't have that

Speaker:

so no air was like pushed inside of you

Speaker:

so they didn't say hey

Speaker:

try to like

Speaker:

get your bowels moving and try to push it out oh

Speaker:

but yeah oftentimes if you have a lot of air put in

Speaker:

you have a lot of air come out

Speaker:

what I'm saying to you is though this is not fake

Speaker:

no I don't think so

Speaker:

that's why I didn't I I was on like

Speaker:

I don't like fake questions on podcast no

Speaker:

that's real absolutely

Speaker:

I've heard I've heard long farts

Speaker:

I haven't

Speaker:

I haven't timed this for a second or but I did

Speaker:

I wasn't gonna play

Speaker:

cause I actually thought it was a bit

Speaker:

so I I message this person and I go

Speaker:

you know what we I go I really don't like

Speaker:

I just heard a podcast

Speaker:

where the question was so faking

Speaker:

it infuriated me and so I go

Speaker:

I'm not trying to say you're lying and I go

Speaker:

but are you doing a bit are you whatever and I go

Speaker:

you said you recorded it with your phone and they go oh

Speaker:

do you want it do you want it

Speaker:

no you don't what I was joking yeah

Speaker:

so I go what do you mean you still have it

Speaker:

because it's on the front page of my phone

Speaker:

no that okay ready

Speaker:

no I was so

Speaker:

24 seconds

Speaker:

I don't think that was 24 seconds

Speaker:

he was 24 and it sounded like a balloon

Speaker:

you're now questioning the validity of this person's

Speaker:

yes oh wow

Speaker:

it's a real fart how do you know that

Speaker:

it's not over there

Speaker:

do you wanna know the ash truth yeah

Speaker:

one second you know

Speaker:

my favorite thing is

Speaker:

the fact that I'm laughing so hard

Speaker:

and you're so unamused

Speaker:

I think that that's all of men versus women

Speaker:

that that struck me so funny

Speaker:

I actually know that it's real

Speaker:

because I heard this story before

Speaker:

we had a podcast

Speaker:

and so first not to hear the to hear the fart

Speaker:

I guess it doesn't amuse me

Speaker:

I don't know that's weird right

Speaker:

I'm I

Speaker:

I'm not saying I'm I don't know which position

Speaker:

but I can't not laugh when there's a 24 second fart

Speaker:

it's impossible but you were like

Speaker:

I think it's a guy woman thing

Speaker:

hmm

Speaker:

anyway I

Speaker:

I don't know I think also

Speaker:

I'm used to like performing surgery and afterwards

Speaker:

not letting patients go

Speaker:

until they've had a bowel movement

Speaker:

or past gas because oftentimes

Speaker:

the medicines we give cause constipation

Speaker:

especially opiates for pain control

Speaker:

so after surgery

Speaker:

you wanna make sure that the gut motility is there

Speaker:

before you discharge someone

Speaker:

so they don't go home and have a bowel obstruction

Speaker:

so a lot of times I'm like

Speaker:

hey you can get out of here soon as you fucking fart

Speaker:

and it's totally serious yeah

Speaker:

so like it's a

Speaker:

it's a thing and then someone will fart and you're like

Speaker:

yeah it's like a genuinely like

Speaker:

so I don't know can I miss something to you

Speaker:

I didn't even care about that medical question

Speaker:

I want to play the fart noise

Speaker:

oh you have a fart

Speaker:

but you had a great answer

Speaker:

so I'm glad we did it

Speaker:

well sounds don't bother me

Speaker:

smells sometimes bother me

Speaker:

what's your word I don't even want to talk about this

Speaker:

because I have a gag reflex for mine

Speaker:

so I don't even want to talk about this

Speaker:

but what's your your doctor

Speaker:

I assume you're you are like

Speaker:

maybe more used to body fluids

Speaker:

and smells than other people might be

Speaker:

do you have one thing where it's like I can't Melena

Speaker:

Melina really Obama's wife

Speaker:

no Trump's wife

Speaker:

well first of all

Speaker:

if you're gonna

Speaker:

like dog presidential or something for the name

Speaker:

first Lady maybe get them right

Speaker:

Meloma seems like a combination of Michelle Obama

Speaker:

seemed like a quick way to say her name

Speaker:

no way to try to recover

Speaker:

what is that

Speaker:

so it's digested blood for an upper GI bleed

Speaker:

so say you're bleeding in your esophagus

Speaker:

your stomach your upper intestine

Speaker:

your body will break down the blood and the heme

Speaker:

the the actual molecules and components of the blood

Speaker:

when they break down actually turn black and Tori

Speaker:

so you poop out it looks like black tar

Speaker:

it's that sticky and it smells terrible

Speaker:

and I've seen it in the pool

Speaker:

like it came out of a patient

Speaker:

and it was just like a huge bucket of black tarri poop

Speaker:

and it smells really bad and it's awful

Speaker:

cause that patient ended up passing shortly thereafter

Speaker:

so like it's not a joke like when you have it that bad

Speaker:

it's a big deal

Speaker:

I got a shit like that rose like I think this is it

Speaker:

I think it's interesting that like

Speaker:

stuff doesn't faze me right

Speaker:

like if you eat beets

Speaker:

like I eat beets a lot in our smoothies when we got

Speaker:

right my pee is like blood

Speaker:

my poop is like bloody and I always like

Speaker:

oh fuck oh yeah

Speaker:

we just had a blue yeah

Speaker:

I know I know it's sexy right

Speaker:

but it's like bloody

Speaker:

I think it's interesting like Pepto Bismol did

Speaker:

you know makes your poop black

Speaker:

I never take and your tongue too

Speaker:

so people like oh shit

Speaker:

I have black stools like what do I do

Speaker:

but it's not the same it's like this black

Speaker:

it's like tar sticky um

Speaker:

we urine do you know we call when Coca Cola urine

Speaker:

it actually looks like Coke

Speaker:

your pee looks that color for a certain disease process

Speaker:

so anyway so that's the worst smell

Speaker:

you're the winner I won't know anyone to say mine

Speaker:

that's why the fart noises in face

Speaker:

because I don't smell anything

Speaker:

what are you gonna do I'm hearing something

Speaker:

I mean first it was

Speaker:

it was real yeah

Speaker:

it was 100% real

Speaker:

and think about we had audio that first one

Speaker:

that would be pretty cool

Speaker:

I'm more so impressed that from the sedation

Speaker:

he was able to have think enough to record his fart

Speaker:

yeah that's something

Speaker:

this is the kind of guy that does

Speaker:

that does not surprise me that he was able to do that

Speaker:

but yeah I agree with you he had this

Speaker:

um do that the next time like well

Speaker:

if I ever meet this friend

Speaker:

that's all I'm just like fart

Speaker:

fart fart

Speaker:

fart fart I'm just

Speaker:

gonna like look at his face and just hear that

Speaker:

you meet this friend

Speaker:

you meet this friend and he will convince you

Speaker:

you'll totally believe him um

Speaker:

I I have my grossest thing is

Speaker:

I don't know what I don't like the grossest smell

Speaker:

it's my no that's my worst like throw up thing

Speaker:

I don't I wanna move on quickly if that's okay cause no

Speaker:

I kind of wanna do this I almost vomit when just do it

Speaker:

if there's a child

Speaker:

and there's any kind of ingesting or something

Speaker:

it's the it's the grossest most disgusting thing

Speaker:

ingesting like eating a butter

Speaker:

oh oh oh oh

Speaker:

I also like pimple videos or

Speaker:

but that's way above it for me I think it's the most

Speaker:

disgusting you're not dry heating right now

Speaker:

I didn't dry heat but I definitely had a literally

Speaker:

can we play a game of like

Speaker:

I tell you the grossest dream I have

Speaker:

and we see how many you can get through yeah

Speaker:

we'll see how many

Speaker:

how to get rid of as many lessons as we can

Speaker:

as fast as we can by grossing everyone out right

Speaker:

I won't tell you one you ready

Speaker:

shit okay

Speaker:

if you don't want to we don't have to okay

Speaker:

I'll do one don't puke on my bedroom

Speaker:

but I can't even handle the okay

Speaker:

God all right

Speaker:

have you um

Speaker:

since you talked about snot

Speaker:

I'm gonna start with that one

Speaker:

I can't have you ever I can't

Speaker:

have you heard of something called a nose Frida

Speaker:

I can't do it a nose Frida do you know what that is

Speaker:

it's for babies

Speaker:

I have I do know what it is haha

Speaker:

I can't do it and I know you're gonna say no no

Speaker:

let me do it let me do it I already know the story

Speaker:

let me do it my ex I'm gonna throw up my let me do it

Speaker:

please

Speaker:

and and I I just watching it happen was so haha

Speaker:

so disgusting and I know I know what your story is

Speaker:

I can already tell what it's gonna be let me do it God

Speaker:

I won't listen alright

Speaker:

so it's for people who don't know what it is

Speaker:

it's a long tube with a suction thing on your mouth

Speaker:

for one side and a little sponge filter

Speaker:

and then you tick

Speaker:

stick the tube into the infant's nose and you suck to

Speaker:

to get all that snot do a disclaimer

Speaker:

if anybody's not wanna hear the story

Speaker:

it'll be 45 seconds I don't even think it's that gross

Speaker:

so to get the snot out of the baby

Speaker:

cause babies can't blow their nose

Speaker:

so when they're really congested

Speaker:

you wanna clear it all out

Speaker:

cause then it won't drain

Speaker:

and cause issues with it going down

Speaker:

and having them cough it up

Speaker:

so you are supposed to suck snot

Speaker:

I know with your mouth out of a baby's nose right

Speaker:

so I got really good at it

Speaker:

I was like babysitting and I was like rushing

Speaker:

so what you do is you take nasal saline

Speaker:

like salt water spray you squirt it up the baby's nose

Speaker:

so it makes the snot even slipperier

Speaker:

and slimier and easier to come out

Speaker:

and then you stick the nozzle in

Speaker:

and then you put the other side in your mouth

Speaker:

and you suck at all the snot

Speaker:

and you see in the clear tube coming up

Speaker:

the problem is I forgot the filter

Speaker:

so I sucked as hard as I could

Speaker:

and all of the baby snot went straight up into my mouth

Speaker:

you're fine that's the whole story you did great

Speaker:

it's the gross thing I've ever heard

Speaker:

you know what the problem with that story is

Speaker:

but you did great you didn't even drive

Speaker:

I'm never gonna forget it

Speaker:

that's a good that's a very gross story

Speaker:

holy shit

Speaker:

you should better than you gave yourself credit for

Speaker:

okay I did plug my ears at the end

Speaker:

but I think I know how it ended

Speaker:

I saw where you were going hey

Speaker:

we have a new feature I'm afraid to ask are you mad

Speaker:

no no no

Speaker:

I'm not mad I almost dropped though

Speaker:

you did drive but you

Speaker:

that was when you were telling the story

Speaker:

when I told one you did fine

Speaker:

good job you could be a doctor um

Speaker:

do you know we have this new feature on afraid to

Speaker:

ask where people can it's called Speak Pipe

Speaker:

which people can leave us messages

Speaker:

that's a terrible name speak pipe

Speaker:

speak pipe like speak into the pipe

Speaker:

I think so speak pipe

Speaker:

and people can leave us messages on social media

Speaker:

um on our Twitter Instagram

Speaker:

you're not even looking at me

Speaker:

I feel like your eyes are still watering haha

Speaker:

I'm really it really fucked me up a little bit ah

Speaker:

but I am looking at messages

Speaker:

people have left us on speak by oh

Speaker:

you don't have to apologize

Speaker:

I think I'm maybe in the minority here on snot

Speaker:

or speakpipe snot oh okay

Speaker:

well let's move on

Speaker:

because I feel badly that I made you feel sick

Speaker:

these pimple videos have millions of views

Speaker:

and that to me is the most disgusting

Speaker:

I was working with an actress once in a television show

Speaker:

that everyone would know who she was

Speaker:

beautiful woman

Speaker:

and during my stomach does here hurt during in makeup

Speaker:

she would watch pimple videos the whole time

Speaker:

she was obsessed with it

Speaker:

there was like some Mr Pimple or something

Speaker:

Doctor Pimple Popper it's like Doctor Squish

Speaker:

but Sandra Lee pimples

Speaker:

I get my eyebrows done the same place as her

Speaker:

she's awesome I watch her videos

Speaker:

I have a couple and I'm in the minor

Speaker:

you know what's interesting

Speaker:

one of the best videos I ever did on TikTok

Speaker:

that got like I don't know

Speaker:

4 million or so views yeah

Speaker:

so thought he'd get ton

Speaker:

but it got enough was pimple popping one

Speaker:

and the thing fucking explodes

Speaker:

like 10 feet up in the air

Speaker:

not my personal oh

Speaker:

a reaction uh huh

Speaker:

I fucking hate TikTok

Speaker:

Erica post on TikTok

Speaker:

like I'm gonna get 2 million views real quick

Speaker:

I post a video that got millions of views on Instagram

Speaker:

and Tik Toks

Speaker:

like you watched it as you were uploading it

Speaker:

no it's the first person that watched it

Speaker:

well

Speaker:

that's what I think is interesting

Speaker:

is social media is kind of like a wash

Speaker:

who knows when someone's gonna like something or not

Speaker:

like the dumbest videos go viral

Speaker:

and like

Speaker:

really interesting videos has barely any views

Speaker:

sometimes that's true

Speaker:

so here's what I thought I would ask you

Speaker:

I have um

Speaker:

some of these speakpipe questions

Speaker:

and there's some that I listen to them

Speaker:

and then a couple of them came in just now

Speaker:

and so I don't know what they are

Speaker:

and so would you like to wish we just go random to the

Speaker:

to the phones are these filtered at all

Speaker:

no

Speaker:

this would be I would just play it like it say anything

Speaker:

fuck it are you worried about that now

Speaker:

you got me worried about it

Speaker:

let's just see what happens

Speaker:

if you haven't listened to it yeah

Speaker:

you just played me an audible real farts apparently

Speaker:

all right

Speaker:

we'll just go to the we'll go to we'll go to speak pipe

Speaker:

here's the first one Doctor Erica

Speaker:

should

Speaker:

all broke losers date doctors for free health care

Speaker:

maybe we should get a screener

Speaker:

should we hire up did you know that was coming

Speaker:

no I didn't fucking know that was coming I should be

Speaker:

what the fuck

Speaker:

I do have health insurance right now

Speaker:

maybe we should rephrase it that you're my Guinea pig

Speaker:

maybe I'm still learning on your body

Speaker:

can I ask you a question what

Speaker:

that hurt my feelings a tiny bit that man's message

Speaker:

do you think true people are just joking

Speaker:

or do you think he they're trying to hurt my feelings

Speaker:

you think he's just joking right

Speaker:

do you think

Speaker:

that person probably likes me and he's like

Speaker:

oh that Jamie has a good sense of humor

Speaker:

and then I took take it too seriously

Speaker:

he's probably my like a fan or something right

Speaker:

I think so

Speaker:

you always talk about being a broke loser on TV

Speaker:

I do feel like you set yourself up for it

Speaker:

great point excellent point

Speaker:

and the fact that everything you said was true

Speaker:

no and I think it's funny cause it's not true

Speaker:

my apologies

Speaker:

right now Writers Guild cause I wrote the animal too

Speaker:

huh cause when I when I do regular comedy

Speaker:

I don't get health insurance

Speaker:

but if you write a script

Speaker:

and you make a certain amount of money

Speaker:

you get this incredible insurance

Speaker:

and because we wrote the animal to last year

Speaker:

actually have pretty incredible insurance

Speaker:

well then I guess I'll date you okay

Speaker:

all right maybe should we

Speaker:

do you want to go to another one

Speaker:

I don't know what to do

Speaker:

let's um

Speaker:

alright let's see if there's

Speaker:

you know I thought it was funny though

Speaker:

cause it's not true if it was remotely true

Speaker:

I would be like what the fuck

Speaker:

you're right it's cause I do say that on TV

Speaker:

of course people are gonna make jokes

Speaker:

did I not just say to you like if I say something like

Speaker:

oh it's cause you have a little dick

Speaker:

it's like a funny

Speaker:

like there's no way it's a true insult

Speaker:

if you had like

Speaker:

insecurities about the size of your penis

Speaker:

or I honestly thought your penis was small yeah

Speaker:

that's not something I would say

Speaker:

I hear what you're saying

Speaker:

so I think this is the same thing where it's like

Speaker:

oh you're a broke loser

Speaker:

ha ha ha not I don't know

Speaker:

maybe something that actually is personal and true

Speaker:

that hurt your feelings so I don't think that one's bad

Speaker:

I'm an oversensitive motherfucker

Speaker:

I think people are just gonna come at us

Speaker:

so if that's the worst thing they say said by us

Speaker:

you mean me

Speaker:

the I'm waiting Gutfeld by the way

Speaker:

that's why he makes jokes about my children

Speaker:

only

Speaker:

because he knows that we do have a good relationship

Speaker:

if we had a bad relationship

Speaker:

me and my kids he would never yeah

Speaker:

ever seem like that that's what I mean yeah right okay

Speaker:

should we do another one I'm fucking scared now

Speaker:

are we ready

Speaker:

hi Jamie Doctor Erica

Speaker:

this is David and Miami

Speaker:

once again with yet another question um

Speaker:

doesn't matter how much I sleep

Speaker:

people are constantly telling me that I look tired uh

Speaker:

I do have a one year old

Speaker:

and some nights I sleep 4 hours

Speaker:

some nights I sleep 9 hours if she lets me

Speaker:

and I'm always getting the same comments from

Speaker:

from people so what do you recommend

Speaker:

what's the right how much sleep should I be getting

Speaker:

should I get a pillow and mattress and face new friends

Speaker:

I would love to hear what you guys think

Speaker:

thank you as always

Speaker:

you know it's funny I hate to say this

Speaker:

what I feel bad for this guy

Speaker:

because this happens to me all the time

Speaker:

what happens to you all the time

Speaker:

people tell me I look tired

Speaker:

so I feel bad for this man and you know what

Speaker:

hmm fucking sounds tired

Speaker:

did he sound tired I went to the airport yesterday

Speaker:

and they asked me if I wanted to check the bags

Speaker:

under my eyes

Speaker:

I get this all the time is there a genetic

Speaker:

is this a genetic thing

Speaker:

or is there something you can do about this

Speaker:

cause I really do I would all the time people are like

Speaker:

oh did you just wake up and sure

Speaker:

I carry a teddy bear and a blankie

Speaker:

you're fucking bombing right now

Speaker:

I am I am

Speaker:

you're the only audience and it's not good

Speaker:

it's not good

Speaker:

what do you what do you say to this man

Speaker:

he's got a one year old yeah

Speaker:

so that's the first thing

Speaker:

okay so actually

Speaker:

did you know that the most

Speaker:

um no

Speaker:

I think not just all of it

Speaker:

well you might know okay

Speaker:

cause you actually said genetics

Speaker:

so I think you're right uh

Speaker:

on track the most predisposing factor

Speaker:

that leads to dark circles under the eyes

Speaker:

most common thing associated with acting career

Speaker:

uh no

Speaker:

it's uh your ethnicity really

Speaker:

yeah it's the melanin production

Speaker:

in the way that

Speaker:

certain people's genetics play into a factor

Speaker:

regardless of other external forces

Speaker:

so depending on your ethnicity

Speaker:

you might have a predisposition to darker under eye

Speaker:

circle or something

Speaker:

I might have some dark under eye sir melanin

Speaker:

so like the basically the production of pigment

Speaker:

okay so if I have darker skin

Speaker:

wouldn't they be less noticeable if I had

Speaker:

it can concentrate in that area

Speaker:

sleep though is a factor

Speaker:

so if this guy says he's a 1 year old yeah

Speaker:

he's not sleeping a lot

Speaker:

but he said some days I sleep a lot

Speaker:

some days I don't sleep a lot

Speaker:

so

Speaker:

it doesn't make me think that he's not sleeping well

Speaker:

all the time um

Speaker:

so I would say it might be ethnicity

Speaker:

I don't know I don't know who this guy is

Speaker:

but can I ask you one question

Speaker:

what do you do um

Speaker:

I always heard just to give a little more advice

Speaker:

I always heard sleep in the baby sleeps right

Speaker:

that's what people say unless your baby doesn't sleep

Speaker:

unless you be able

Speaker:

but they say like the minute falls asleep

Speaker:

I would I did that like when I had kids

Speaker:

we I'd sleep in the baby sleep

Speaker:

I would when he would suck a nipple I would go

Speaker:

let's do this right just to stand the same

Speaker:

what's the next one

Speaker:

tough crowd today okay

Speaker:

other reasons for looking tired

Speaker:

well if you don't get a lot of sleep

Speaker:

you don't get a lot of oxygenation in return

Speaker:

if you're snoring or you're only sleeping a few hours

Speaker:

your body is overexerted so your uh

Speaker:

you can be dehydrated which can cause it

Speaker:

or actually can cause your blood vessels to dilate

Speaker:

with less oxygen received to the body overnight

Speaker:

if you're not sleeping a lot

Speaker:

so it believe it or not

Speaker:

puffs up your blood vessels deoxygenated blood is dark

Speaker:

right

Speaker:

when you see blood that's like bright red versus blue

Speaker:

well dark

Speaker:

deoxygenated blood is the color you're looking for

Speaker:

and it can go underneath your eyes

Speaker:

so if it's dilated

Speaker:

it's darker you know what's interesting

Speaker:

since we talk about buttholes

Speaker:

you know how people treat bags under their eyes

Speaker:

wait that's your hint

Speaker:

don't tell me there's the thing

Speaker:

I really want to know the link you're saying

Speaker:

how do people treat

Speaker:

is your dog going fucking crazy

Speaker:

or is that a different dog

Speaker:

that's not my dog crazy um

Speaker:

I don't know if they can hear that

Speaker:

um oh

Speaker:

let me check

Speaker:

oh yeah okay

Speaker:

well we live in

Speaker:

I got a dog don't fucking nuts

Speaker:

um can I have a real chance at this

Speaker:

yeah I just gave you the hint

Speaker:

so go for it so bags under your eyes

Speaker:

I just said vasodilation and buttholes

Speaker:

is it because you can't sleep

Speaker:

because there's a fucking dog won't shut the fuck up

Speaker:

could be I don't know what just made me think of that

Speaker:

um

Speaker:

could it be

Speaker:

treatment under your eye

Speaker:

I'm immediately thinking it's some sort of

Speaker:

I put a little like like a face mask type of thing

Speaker:

but it's constant there

Speaker:

I just set it on there on the outside of it

Speaker:

like some kind of ointment

Speaker:

but I don't know what that has to do with my butthole

Speaker:

I give up what is it

Speaker:

well yeah

Speaker:

like so you know how

Speaker:

like some under eye patches have like caffeine in them

Speaker:

yes or green tea

Speaker:

because

Speaker:

it's supposed to vasoconstrict in a certain way

Speaker:

that's why caffeine helps with headache sometimes

Speaker:

cause those blood vessels dilate

Speaker:

the caffeine like from coffee squeezes them down

Speaker:

well same thing here

Speaker:

same concept you got that dilated blood vessel

Speaker:

the darker the puffier the uh

Speaker:

hemorrhoid cream oh damn it

Speaker:

that sounds familiar

Speaker:

topical hemorrhoid cream constricts the hemorrhoid

Speaker:

brings down the swelling in your anus

Speaker:

same thing brings down the swelling here

Speaker:

you be careful you don't wanna get that in your eyes

Speaker:

but you do wanna put them around

Speaker:

so that's one option nice tip

Speaker:

you know how you go to the store sometimes

Speaker:

and you turn me onto this

Speaker:

and it is so surprising to me

Speaker:

that sometimes there will be a medicine one

Speaker:

one that I thought on over the counter

Speaker:

like a unison or something

Speaker:

hmm that sometimes has the same oh

Speaker:

I noticed it with um like an antifungal

Speaker:

one will be like toenail fungus destroyer

Speaker:

and then the other one will say

Speaker:

rash prevention is the same fucking thing

Speaker:

same thing do they

Speaker:

they should do a hemorrhoid thing where they go hey

Speaker:

under eye

Speaker:

do you know what I mean

Speaker:

cause I have trouble putting something on my face

Speaker:

if there's a picture of

Speaker:

like a hot guy with his ass showing on the

Speaker:

on the packaging

Speaker:

we think he just have like 2 chocolate starfishes

Speaker:

right here yeah

Speaker:

that's all I'm saying with the same ingredients as um

Speaker:

hemorrhoid cream

Speaker:

what's your favorite amount of

Speaker:

I know this is super

Speaker:

it's just it's mostly opinion I guess

Speaker:

but maybe not what do you think

Speaker:

like how much sleep at night

Speaker:

are you an 8 hour night person

Speaker:

what do you personally do

Speaker:

well the medical guidelines

Speaker:

currently recommend 7 to 8 hours overnight

Speaker:

but that's also good quality

Speaker:

minimally interrupted sleep

Speaker:

so you wanna reduce things like frequent urination

Speaker:

nocturia can be a big problem

Speaker:

if you're going four or five times a night

Speaker:

so make sure your prostits okay

Speaker:

uh sleep apnea

Speaker:

snoring a lot people sometimes sleep 10 hours

Speaker:

but they feel like they've slept one

Speaker:

it's not restorative

Speaker:

this day feels like an answer slash personal attack

Speaker:

um restless legs

Speaker:

so tossing and turning a lot of times

Speaker:

people actually have a condition where they can't sit

Speaker:

still

Speaker:

that's usually associated with iron deficiency anemia

Speaker:

so not always iron deficiency

Speaker:

maybe not anemia so getting that checked

Speaker:

and then having a supplementation

Speaker:

there's a lot of reasons

Speaker:

people don't sleep well overnight

Speaker:

um but yeah

Speaker:

our goal is seven to eight hours

Speaker:

so you're saying he he might be in my page

Speaker:

and I think he might just look like that

Speaker:

there's nothing you can do

Speaker:

or especially if he's getting the proper nice sleep

Speaker:

but he has a one year old

Speaker:

so maybe that's

Speaker:

maybe that's the answer to the question right there

Speaker:

well

Speaker:

whenever someone says I'm having a hard time sleeping

Speaker:

I'm like okay

Speaker:

are you having a hard time falling asleep

Speaker:

or staying asleep

Speaker:

cause there's other ideologies for each one anxiety

Speaker:

depression can do it um

Speaker:

excessive caffeine use obviously stimulants problems

Speaker:

alcohol you know

Speaker:

we know that alcohol is a depressant

Speaker:

it makes you fall asleep usually

Speaker:

easier but then you wake up and you feel like shit

Speaker:

after a few hours so then you

Speaker:

then you get woken up because you pissed the bed

Speaker:

you changing the sheets now I'm wide awake

Speaker:

why did you say you oh just one 1 has pissed the bed

Speaker:

just in the in the example

Speaker:

I think that's a good answer oh

Speaker:

thank you haha

Speaker:

I do I think that's a really good answer

Speaker:

but I feel like sometimes I sleep drinking 12 hours

Speaker:

and still look like I just woke up

Speaker:

so I don't know what to do about that

Speaker:

I think it's because of the apnea from the snoring

Speaker:

and uh

Speaker:

you're also not getting really good REM quality sleep

Speaker:

if you wake up a lot

Speaker:

you don't go back into that restoration

Speaker:

with a rapid eye movement that your body needs um

Speaker:

your adrenal glands their little

Speaker:

tiny glands that sit on top of your kidneys

Speaker:

they put they spit out cortisol right

Speaker:

that's that fight or flight hormone

Speaker:

ideally we like you to go to bed around like 10 or 11

Speaker:

because the early morning hours

Speaker:

between like 2 and 4

Speaker:

is when those adrenal glands tend to kick in more

Speaker:

and if you don't fall asleep

Speaker:

and give your body enough time to chill

Speaker:

it's like working overtime

Speaker:

so those glands are like well

Speaker:

fuck you pew pew pew

Speaker:

and then you're just like

Speaker:

like that fighter flight hormone

Speaker:

and you've got all the stress

Speaker:

hormone in your body and that causes truncal

Speaker:

obesity and irritation and mood changes

Speaker:

and it fucks with your level of energy and exhaustion

Speaker:

I do feel like honey future episode

Speaker:

I don't know if I'm ready for this right now

Speaker:

or if you are um

Speaker:

but I feel like we should get into snoring

Speaker:

at some point because maybe not now

Speaker:

only because I'm doing like

Speaker:

I'm doing like an experiment

Speaker:

oh study of one sample size 1 me

Speaker:

cause this really bothers me and I mean

Speaker:

not kidding

Speaker:

it's embarrassing you talk about now there's no well

Speaker:

I just thought we are kind of almost up against time

Speaker:

but um I think we should talk about sleep though

Speaker:

cause we should

Speaker:

there's there's so many options for the snoring thing

Speaker:

and I just paid I did a mouth tape thing

Speaker:

I did a breathe right strip

Speaker:

and I bought this thing that was $350

Speaker:

called a Smart Nora where it moves your head around

Speaker:

it hears you it like hears you snoring

Speaker:

and moves your head before you start to snore

Speaker:

and my

Speaker:

and I have a app called Snore Lab that I pay for

Speaker:

that retracts my sleep

Speaker:

and in the 3 days since I bought this expensive thing

Speaker:

it's been the worst snoring I've ever had

Speaker:

in my whole life yeah

Speaker:

you're also sick I'm also sick

Speaker:

you're congested and I think that's why

Speaker:

so that's why I thought maybe study a slut

Speaker:

the studies flawed yeah

Speaker:

it's not a double blinded trial

Speaker:

I mean we have to kind of reduce that expectation

Speaker:

true and start over 1

Speaker:

it is hard to figure to learn anything

Speaker:

well hey

Speaker:

I think we should talk about that in the future then

Speaker:

cause I get questions about sleep all day long

Speaker:

for patients all right

Speaker:

we table to sleep talk and then would you like me to oh

Speaker:

play one more yes

Speaker:

random call is it random or is another fart

Speaker:

no this is not a

Speaker:

this is not a um

Speaker:

cause you said that was random

Speaker:

not pre planned hmm

Speaker:

do you know cause I'm kind of sick

Speaker:

I can't

Speaker:

my words are coming like a tiny bit slower than normal

Speaker:

like I don't know if I sound fucked up

Speaker:

you don't sound fucked up

Speaker:

okay so I had an idea

Speaker:

because we do have to wrap up this episode

Speaker:

what if I play a clip of a question and then we go

Speaker:

let's do it next time okay

Speaker:

but this is truly random oh

Speaker:

like I'm not commenting I'm just listening

Speaker:

and then you're well

Speaker:

we'll cut we'll try not leaving them hanging

Speaker:

yeah if it's a good question

Speaker:

maybe you give a teaser you go like oh

Speaker:

we'll talk about this and then we'll jump off into it

Speaker:

next time just play one random one sure

Speaker:

let's see if I'm entertained or unamused okay

Speaker:

someone I've been talking to for over a year

Speaker:

tells me that he's Jamie

Speaker:

he tells me he loves me and he wants to marry me

Speaker:

but then I see this one time

Speaker:

that you're supposed to be his

Speaker:

smarter half

Speaker:

do you two have a relationship

Speaker:

I really need to know if it's really him or scam

Speaker:

okay

Speaker:

I did not know that was gonna play that

Speaker:

um

Speaker:

let's let's wrap up let's wrap up

Speaker:

we'll get rid of this who the fuck is she

Speaker:

coming up on the next episode of afraid to ask

Speaker:

you know I think

Speaker:

it's really interesting

Speaker:

about how we always make the safe choices right

Speaker:

Brine Brown talked about something like that

Speaker:

where you're in the arena etitude

Speaker:

well what does that look like

Speaker:

I love that lady

Speaker:

so she talked about the arena and how like

Speaker:

if you wanna make stuff happen

Speaker:

and you're comfortable

Speaker:

just sitting in an arena and watching

Speaker:

nothing's gonna happen

Speaker:

you have to be the fucking gladiator

Speaker:

that's fucking scared shitless

Speaker:

in the faces of everybody else

Speaker:

that makes those tough decisions

Speaker:

that nobody else wants to

Speaker:

or you're never gonna get the spotlight

Speaker:

you're never gonna get them for you

Speaker:

never gonna get what you want

Speaker:

so if you're too scared to fucking do it fine

Speaker:

you're gonna take this apron

Speaker:

your life's gonna make mine

Speaker:

but you have to be fucking terrified

Speaker:

to make those choices

Speaker:

that take those exceptional people and propel them

Speaker:

otherwise you're just another spectator
