- 2:28Speaker 2: as me and my buddy Jack were playing, and we, uh,
- 2:31Speaker 2: we didn't have two other people to fill the other
- 2:33Speaker 2: two spots, so we let those go and another's two
- 2:37Speaker 2: random people. Okay those So we got paired up with
- 2:39Speaker 2: these other two guys and uh, they were in their
- 2:43Speaker 2: seventies or whatever, and one of them just you know,
- 2:46Speaker 2: would not shut the fuck up. It just feels like
- 2:49Speaker 2: he's got to talk constantly, right, and uh, fine, whatever,
- 2:53Speaker 2: I can deal with that, No big deal.
- 2:54Speaker 1: You've been dealing with that for ye.
- 2:55Speaker 2: But then so he starts giving giving me advice unsolicited.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Good, that's the best. So I could hear him.
- 3:08Speaker 2: So right off the off the first tee, Uh, I
- 3:13Speaker 2: I take my shot, I take an iron, I get
- 3:14Speaker 2: a really nice shot. And then they're about thirty yards
- 3:18Speaker 2: to the right of me, further back. Yeah, I go
- 3:20Speaker 2: up to my ball because I don't want to wait.
- 3:22Speaker 2: I want to get the measurements and need to know
- 3:23Speaker 2: what I'm doing playing out my shot all that stuff.
- 3:25Speaker 2: And I can hear them talking, and the guy's talking
- 3:28Speaker 2: to my buddy Jack and he's talking about me.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Oh no, He's like, man, he's got it. He's got
- 3:36Speaker 1: a really good swing. He's he's he seems like he's
- 3:38Speaker 1: really like a golfer. He's got a swing is he
- 3:45Speaker 1: as as the day goes on? And I'm not playing bad.
- 3:48Speaker 2: You know, like I'm missing a few putts here and there,
- 3:50Speaker 2: but I'm not playing bad. But then the guy, you know,
- 3:53Speaker 2: he comes up to me. He is like you know what,
- 3:57Speaker 2: And right away I'm like, fuck, I know where this
- 3:59Speaker 2: is going. And he's like, you got a great swing.
- 4:03Speaker 2: You could be a really great golfer.
- 4:06Speaker 6: Have you ever tried talk? Have you ever tried changing
- 4:09Speaker 6: your grip? Change that grip?
- 4:17Speaker 7: Choke it?
- 4:18Speaker 1: And I was just like, no, dude, you don't. You
- 4:22Speaker 1: don't do that.
- 4:22Speaker 7: You don't just do stare him.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Well then he kept going to like he did that
- 4:27Speaker 2: once to me, and then he said it again to
- 4:29Speaker 2: my friend Jack, just like you know, if he works
- 4:32Speaker 2: on his putting. And then at the end of the round,
- 4:36Speaker 2: this motherfucker we're walking off the green, he's like hey,
- 4:41Speaker 2: and he meant this as a compliment.
- 4:42Speaker 1: He really believed this was the point. Yeah, He's like, hey,
- 4:46Speaker 1: you take some putting lessons and you could be a
- 4:48Speaker 1: scratch golfer.
- 4:52Speaker 8: Golf, good question. He who had the better score? Yeah,
- 4:59Speaker 8: I definitely did, probably not by much. I mean for
- 5:02Speaker 8: seventy year old.
- 5:02Speaker 2: He was getting around the course pretty good, all right, okay,
- 5:05Speaker 2: but he had a swing you look like Charles Barkley.
- 5:08Speaker 1: It was a sexy racially like. I don't know where
- 5:12Speaker 1: you're going with this. I don't know how to interpret.
- 5:14Speaker 3: He only he only teed off a black face.
- 5:16Speaker 2: Okay, that's what I mean exactly the whole round he
- 5:21Speaker 2: was in black face.
- 5:21Speaker 1: He was very honest in the.
- 5:23Speaker 3: Tea box, taken off so many wet wipes.
- 5:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're on the wrong side of this,
- 5:31Speaker 1: if I may, Okay, be teachable, man, this was your
- 5:34Speaker 1: mister Miagi moment. Some seventy year old dude who's fucking
- 5:37Speaker 1: earned it. Okay, homies twice your age. He's done lines
- 5:40Speaker 1: longer than you. Okay, he fucking shows up in his seventies.
- 5:43Speaker 1: He's keeping nice, said, he's keeping up. You think he
- 5:48Speaker 1: does mathmark, you're some child, Okay. He's got shoes as
- 5:52Speaker 1: old as you. And this motherfucker gets up there and
- 5:55Speaker 1: keeps up with you and then says, you know what,
- 5:59Speaker 1: I think you could go beyond where you're at right now.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Keep working at it, kid, And you're like that son
- 6:03Speaker 1: of a just pretentious old man. You're on the wrong side.

- 8:29Speaker 1: in your feed and you just kind of glance at
- 8:31Speaker 1: the title of the episodes and you just kind of
- 8:32Speaker 1: like glance and look for topics that you might find
- 8:35Speaker 1: interesting or whatever. If you look every week and you
- 8:37Speaker 1: read that title and you think to yourself, man, I'm
- 8:40Speaker 1: glad that there's some questions out there that are getting
- 8:42Speaker 1: answered by professionals that are going out in the world
- 8:44Speaker 1: for free, and that this is real advice. But it's
- 8:47Speaker 1: also you know, kind of like rolled around in that

- 8:54Speaker 1: to yourself, man, this is the kind of show that
- 8:56Speaker 1: would appeal to my friend. This is the kind of
- 8:58Speaker 1: show that needed to exist for so and so. This
- 9:01Speaker 1: is the kind of thing they could have actually accessed
- 9:03Speaker 1: and they would have done well with if if you listen,

- 9:08Speaker 1: every single episode, and you've thought, yeah, I don't really
- 9:11Speaker 1: necessarily want the discord community, I'm good, I don't need
- 9:14Speaker 1: the show ad free. I just used that thirty second
- 9:15Speaker 1: skip button. I like the questions, Fine, I probably don't
- 9:19Speaker 1: want to, you know, do the pre show hang out
- 9:20Speaker 1: and find out about Jim's cooking or Whitney strip and
- 9:23Speaker 1: you know, I just I just like the professional advice occasionally.
- 9:26Speaker 1: But if you're still one of those people that subscribes
- 9:28Speaker 1: and we've been in your feed for a long time,
- 9:31Speaker 1: this is my heart to heart appeal that you know,
- 9:33Speaker 1: may is that opportunity to say, you know what, I'm
- 9:35Speaker 1: gonna put a little bit of money on mental health.

- 9:40Speaker 1: in the world. It's creative, it's fun, and it appeals
- 9:43Speaker 1: to certain people that just no other content can. And

- 11:13Speaker 1: Apple listener, jump over there, drop us a five star review.
- 11:16Speaker 1: You don't have to add any commentary. If you're a
- 11:18Speaker 1: Spotify listener, drop us that five star review. If you
- 11:21Speaker 1: don't use either of those platforms, but you'd still like
- 11:23Speaker 1: to drop a review. In our episode description, we link
- 11:26Speaker 1: to good pods. That's a fun place to add comments
- 11:29Speaker 1: or just drop reviews. It really does mean a lot
- 11:31Speaker 1: whenever I reach out to other shows in May and
- 11:34Speaker 1: I ask, hey, you know, you guys are bigger than us,
- 11:37Speaker 1: but we fill a special need in the world. Would
- 11:39Speaker 1: you be willing to slum it up with us and
- 11:42Speaker 1: let us do some cross pollination with your audience. The
- 11:44Speaker 1: only credibility that gives me a second look is those reviews,
- 11:48Speaker 1: because the very first thing other podcasters do. We can't
- 11:51Speaker 1: see each other's numbers. Nobody knows how well in other
- 11:53Speaker 1: podcasts doing the way we check is we go check reviews,
- 11:57Speaker 1: and so the first thing you do is go to Apple.
- 11:59Speaker 1: You see the other podcast reviews and the number of
- 12:02Speaker 1: views they have, and like the stars, that tells you
- 12:05Speaker 1: everything about whether they're legitimate or not. So again, if
- 12:08Speaker 1: you're not gonna put any money in the hat, and
- 12:10Speaker 1: we're a regular part of your week, or just somebody
- 12:12Speaker 1: that you keep in your feed, you know, in case
- 12:14Speaker 1: you ever need it. Please at least drop us some reviews.
- 12:17Speaker 1: We really appreciate that, and you get the benefit of
- 12:19Speaker 1: us reading them on the show, which we always like
- 12:21Speaker 1: to do. Two other ways you can support the show.
- 12:23Speaker 1: If you don't want to do either of these, only
- 12:24Speaker 1: fans we want to support.
- 12:29Speaker 2: You can strip me OnlyFans dot com slash stripney. Tell
- 12:33Speaker 2: a couple people about the episode. Tell two friends about
- 12:36Speaker 2: the episode, about the show. Maybe not this one. Find
- 12:39Speaker 2: a good one, any show, Yeah, dig back, find an
- 12:43Speaker 2: episode that you'd want to share, Sure that one, and
- 12:46Speaker 2: then fourth uh sending some letters.

- 12:52Speaker 1: little low. Where do they send the questions?

- 13:09Speaker 2: Put in the in the uh section, the head abject
- 13:13Speaker 2: the subject Just put question.
- 13:15Speaker 1: Yeah, that actually helps out, actually helps a lot of
- 13:21Speaker 1: those are legitimately.
- 13:22Speaker 8: Don't put in the subject line nude Russian girls ye,
- 13:26Speaker 8: that's what most of the subject lines are right now,
- 13:29Speaker 8: and we're going.
- 13:29Speaker 1: To click it, you know, just in case it might
- 13:33Speaker 1: be real this time, you know, but god damn, we
- 13:36Speaker 1: have so many viruses on the computer.
- 13:38Speaker 2: You can also go to pot therapy dot net and
- 13:40Speaker 2: there's an anonymous Google form.

- 14:11Speaker 1: supporting us all this time and making this show possible.
- 14:14Speaker 1: So we've got some questions today, some great questions and
- 14:17Speaker 1: also some commentary. We're gonna start by getting into the
- 14:20Speaker 1: Marijiwana category with a question on thc C eight. This
- 14:27Speaker 1: is interesting. We're getting into the weeds here. Hello. My
- 14:31Speaker 1: name is at the bottom. It's fine to use it
- 14:32Speaker 1: if you want to. Great, I will probably if I
- 14:35Speaker 1: see it. I was chatting with my therapist today and
- 14:38Speaker 1: she informed me that her nephew tried some thchc C
- 14:42Speaker 1: eight and had a very negative reaction. Quote. My nephew
- 14:46Speaker 1: went off the deep end and was hospitalized in the
- 14:49Speaker 1: psych word for a week. I found some information about
- 14:53Speaker 1: it on a end quote. I found some information about
- 14:55Speaker 1: it on a couple of sites like what I've linked below.
- 14:59Speaker 1: My therapist concerned that it may cause psychosis. Wondering if
- 15:03Speaker 1: you or someone you know has experienced THHCC eight and
- 15:08Speaker 1: if the reaction was similar or not. Thank you for
- 15:10Speaker 1: your time and consideration. I offered to reach out to
- 15:13Speaker 1: everyone I know, and unfortunately I mostly have parasocial relationships,
- 15:19Speaker 1: but I am a therapod since July of twenty twenty four,
- 15:22Speaker 1: so figured i'd try and maybe it's a warning to
- 15:24Speaker 1: someone like me who knew nothing about it. I'll check
- 15:27Speaker 1: with the Discord as well. Thanks again, Jesse Miller. Pronouns
- 15:30Speaker 1: are he and him.
- 15:32Speaker 8: Thhc C eight is a rare cannabinoid with an eight
- 15:35Speaker 8: carbon chain, making it a unique find in the cannabis world.
- 15:39Speaker 8: Unlike its cousins delta eight THHC and delta nine THHC,
- 15:43Speaker 8: THHCC eight may bind more easily to the CB one receptor,
- 15:48Speaker 8: hinting at a more potent experience.
- 15:51Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 15:51Speaker 8: Well, it's a naturally occurring compound in the cannabis plant,
- 15:54Speaker 8: but only in trace amounts. The real magic happens in
- 15:57Speaker 8: the lab where is derived from himp to a multi
- 16:00Speaker 8: step process.
- 16:01Speaker 1: Yep, yep. So thhc C eight a k A THHC
- 16:05Speaker 1: the oho uh I heal it in the biz. Yeah,
- 16:10Speaker 1: just basically potency, very high potency I have. Yeah, And
- 16:15Speaker 1: so what's interesting about this is like, so I want
- 16:18Speaker 1: to kind of zoom out a little bit because I
- 16:20Speaker 1: don't know that I have a lot of feedback that's
- 16:22Speaker 1: very specific to the strain and like what this does
- 16:25Speaker 1: in particular, But it does give me an opportunity to
- 16:28Speaker 1: comment on the bigger picture of high potency THHC.
- 16:33Speaker 8: I also want to know about any medications causing psychosis.
- 16:37Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is something that's I'm seeing a lot
- 16:42Speaker 1: of it, Yes, yeah, yeah, a.
- 16:44Speaker 3: Lot high potency THC or psychosis, so.
- 16:47Speaker 1: High potency TC shrooms and like hallucinogens and people having
- 16:52Speaker 1: big episode psychosis as a result, ultimately getting hospitalized and
- 16:57Speaker 1: having like months and months long reactions that it takes
- 17:02Speaker 1: a really long time and a lot of like antipsychotic
- 17:04Speaker 1: medication and get them back to zero again.
- 17:06Speaker 7: Yes, I had one client, you know, recently where they
- 17:12Speaker 7: are fine now, but when they were in college or
- 17:15Speaker 7: like right before going to college, so probably like a
- 17:19Speaker 7: decade ago or more, they said, uh, they're like I
- 17:23Speaker 7: smoked weed, you know, kind of all the time whatever,
- 17:25Speaker 7: but this one time they smoked with a friend, and
- 17:29Speaker 7: almost immediately they felt really off and essentially went into
- 17:34Speaker 7: a whole depersonalization episode for years, Yes, for like two
- 17:40Speaker 7: or three years.
- 17:40Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 17:42Speaker 7: Until they finally came out of it. And yeah, it
- 17:45Speaker 7: halted like their college life, like a lot of their
- 17:48Speaker 7: youth was gone to this. So when we started meeting together,
- 17:51Speaker 7: they had shared about it, and iza did they Okay,
- 17:54Speaker 7: great question.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 17:56Speaker 7: So it's kind of like dissociation, but in instead of
- 18:00Speaker 7: H you know, like D I D. It's which it
- 18:05Speaker 7: used to be, like multiple personality disorder, instead of separating
- 18:09Speaker 7: into different personalities. It's like you're separated from yourself and
- 18:12Speaker 7: you're watching yourself. And they actually described it really well
- 18:17Speaker 7: to me not too long ago, where they said, it's
- 18:20Speaker 7: like you're sitting talking to me, like how far we
- 18:22Speaker 7: sit in our sessions, But imagine I'm just getting I
- 18:26Speaker 7: feel like I'm getting further and further away, and I
- 18:28Speaker 7: can't quite hear what you're saying, and it's like it's
- 18:31Speaker 7: like a form of dissociation. But they call it depersonalization. Jacob,
- 18:35Speaker 7: that's a good.
- 18:35Speaker 1: Question, detaching from yourself.
- 18:38Speaker 3: I'm not looking at you, that's way.
- 18:40Speaker 1: Jacob's still looking about where he can buy this THHC.
- 18:43Speaker 3: No, I know where I can buy it.
- 18:45Speaker 1: Don't be silly. Of course I've already ordered it. Jacob's
- 18:47Speaker 1: wondering where you can sell it.
- 18:50Speaker 7: But I feel comfortable sharing this a little in a
- 18:53Speaker 7: little bit of detail, because one of the things they
- 18:56Speaker 7: just kept expressing in our sessions is why is no
- 18:58Speaker 7: one talking about this? Nobody's talking about it, nobody's mentioning it.
- 19:02Speaker 7: And they were like, I really so okay. Really quick,
- 19:05Speaker 7: as a therapist, we dive into trauma, like what was
- 19:08Speaker 7: your trauma history? Like that's the go to for therapy,
- 19:11Speaker 7: but they like really didn't have any at least he
- 19:15Speaker 7: always said like that I can remember, you know. He's
- 19:17Speaker 7: like I really didn't have any like big traumas or
- 19:20Speaker 7: anything that I can recall. So like, I really think
- 19:23Speaker 7: it was the THHC. It was like the weed I
- 19:26Speaker 7: was smoking. So that's like stuck with me and I've
- 19:29Speaker 7: definitely looked into it more since working with them. But yeah,
- 19:32Speaker 7: they're like I wish more people were just like kind
- 19:35Speaker 7: of spreading awareness that this could happen, Like you need
- 19:38Speaker 7: to be aware. It's not just weed. Is this magical
- 19:41Speaker 7: ya that helps you know everything?
- 19:44Speaker 9: You know?
- 19:45Speaker 1: I think that we've and this goes back to some
- 19:47Speaker 1: of the mythology about this, right, like marijuana and psilocybin, shrooms, LSD,
- 19:52Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff that the mythology that kind
- 19:54Speaker 1: of came along with it being popularized. I mean it's
- 19:57Speaker 1: been popular forever, but like repopular in the last ten years.
- 20:01Speaker 1: Is this mantra about it being so natural, right, Like
- 20:04Speaker 1: this is a plant, it's grown, it's not this fermented alcohol.
- 20:08Speaker 1: And these these comparisons were constantly being made. We're like, look,
- 20:11Speaker 1: alcohol is super bad for your health and all this stuff,
- 20:13Speaker 1: and yet it's legal. And so like there was all
- 20:15Speaker 1: these like multiple arguments being made that created these false
- 20:19Speaker 1: equivalencies that weren't correct, Like sure, there's should one substance
- 20:24Speaker 1: be legalized versus another. That's fine, have a comparison conversation,
- 20:28Speaker 1: reach a reach a place in your society where you say,
- 20:31Speaker 1: there's certain harms we're willing to tolerate, and like this
- 20:34Speaker 1: is within the boundaries of that, we're going to tax it. Great, Like, okay,
- 20:37Speaker 1: that's a different conversation. But unfortunately, in our zeal to
- 20:41Speaker 1: like push certain kinds of like libertarian arguments of like
- 20:44Speaker 1: let people live their lives forward, we made it sound
- 20:49Speaker 1: like these substances, you know, which are different levels of hallucinogens,
- 20:54Speaker 1: are just all benign And that was unfortunate.
- 20:57Speaker 3: Those have to be two different conversations they do.
- 21:00Speaker 8: Yeah, the libertarian like let's legalize things and enter healthcare
- 21:04Speaker 8: and everything work itself out. That can be a conversation
- 21:08Speaker 8: over here, but it shouldn't be the only conversations being
- 21:11Speaker 8: had about about these threadover.
- 21:12Speaker 1: It pled over and became this thing of like there
- 21:14Speaker 1: are no problems the end there, and like to their credit.
- 21:18Speaker 1: A lot of the folks that were big proponents of,
- 21:20Speaker 1: you know, legalizing all these things or or enjoying these
- 21:22Speaker 1: things recreationally, they were bringing up some good arguments that
- 21:26Speaker 1: they were saying, Hey, there was a lot of hysteria
- 21:27Speaker 1: in the past, so we should probably assume that any
- 21:31Speaker 1: stories of these things being bad are probably these huge
- 21:34Speaker 1: exaggerations and hysterical. And so they got this huge benefit
- 21:38Speaker 1: of the doubt moved for a long time. But this
- 21:39Speaker 1: goes back to your patient's point, where they said, why
- 21:42Speaker 1: is nobody talking about this? And there's been this counter
- 21:44Speaker 1: swing to the other side now where if you tell
- 21:48Speaker 1: stories of having really bad reactions on these things, you
- 21:51Speaker 1: can be dismissed really quickly. Yeah, and a lot of
- 21:54Speaker 1: folks that enjoy these recreational drugs are like, well, something
- 21:56Speaker 1: must be clearly wrong with you. There's some unique thing
- 21:59Speaker 1: about you.
- 22:00Speaker 7: Although yeah, exactly, but you don't know it until it's
- 22:04Speaker 7: too late.
- 22:05Speaker 3: I never think that first.
- 22:06Speaker 8: Honestly, what I thought first, from both the writer and
- 22:09Speaker 8: from Whitney's story is uh, something else, something something else
- 22:15Speaker 8: in the in the making of it, Like eight for instance, has.
- 22:17Speaker 3: To be uh lab made.
- 22:20Speaker 8: They're not extracting the trace amount from each plant, and then.
- 22:26Speaker 3: They're not doing that growing it.
- 22:28Speaker 8: Some are they're they're not growing it, but they're they're
- 22:30Speaker 8: producing it in a lab like all of these and
- 22:34Speaker 8: like you're going to have a vast array when it
- 22:38Speaker 8: comes to especially something like marijuana that is like pseudo
- 22:42Speaker 8: legal in some place like in Nevada. It's as legal
- 22:46Speaker 8: as it is anywhere in the states in the state
- 22:48Speaker 8: of Nevada, which just means that the state doesn't bother
- 22:51Speaker 8: anybody about weed.
- 22:53Speaker 3: And there's still like weird banking.
- 22:55Speaker 8: Laws and all these other things along with the dispensaries
- 22:57Speaker 8: and stuff.
- 22:58Speaker 1: But like you think about like you and that we
- 23:01Speaker 1: grow marijuana at our farms and stuff like that.
- 23:04Speaker 8: I think it's very important, and I think that people
- 23:07Speaker 8: don't think about this, especially with marijuana, But with any drug,
- 23:12Speaker 8: any especially any recreational drug that you're trying, presumably without
- 23:16Speaker 8: a doctor's supervision, you want to know everything that you're
- 23:19Speaker 8: able to know about it, yes, and so like with marijuana,
- 23:23Speaker 8: you want to know what kind of strain you're dealing with.
- 23:25Speaker 8: You want to know if there's any any kind of
- 23:27Speaker 8: contaminants in there with the lab stuff, Like you want
- 23:30Speaker 8: to know that shit.
- 23:32Speaker 3: Otherwise you just have no idea.
- 23:35Speaker 8: Well when you just sucked into your body, yeah, and
- 23:38Speaker 8: then but then you say, like, well, I had.
- 23:40Speaker 3: This adverse effect I smoked marijuana when you sure did.
- 23:43Speaker 1: Yeah, which one could be a million different things. And
- 23:47Speaker 1: this also goes back to, like again the mythology of
- 23:49Speaker 1: everything just being benign, like alcohol can affect some people
- 23:53Speaker 1: differently than others certain amounts of alcohol, Like everybody has
- 23:56Speaker 1: different stories, like a certain type of alcohol effected them
- 23:59Speaker 1: in certain ways, like as a joke about like tequila
- 24:01Speaker 1: or vodka or whatever. But like I think with marijuana
- 24:04Speaker 1: and other hallucinogens, like it is a little bit different
- 24:07Speaker 1: because you're you can personally be affected by this in
- 24:11Speaker 1: ways that we wouldn't have expected. And when we aggregate
- 24:14Speaker 1: this into data and we start studying this over populations,
- 24:18Speaker 1: we are seeing some negatives now that we're looking at
- 24:21Speaker 1: it and saying, especially with like adolescents that are using this,
- 24:24Speaker 1: we are seeing larger than average amounts of psychosis, and
- 24:28Speaker 1: we're seeing later adoption of psychosis early on set psychosis.
- 24:31Speaker 1: We're seeing stories like this writers and stories like your patient.
- 24:34Speaker 1: I had a patient a couple of months ago, who
- 24:37Speaker 1: had a family member who had was a regular drug user.
- 24:41Speaker 1: They had always enjoyed their alcohol, they'd always enjoyed their cannabis.
- 24:44Speaker 1: That was just part of their life. And then you know,
- 24:47Speaker 1: they went out and did some shrooms with some friends.
- 24:48Speaker 3: They had.
- 24:49Speaker 1: This not the first time they'd done shrooms. They're just
- 24:51Speaker 1: having another trip on shrooms, just having a great time,
- 24:53Speaker 1: and for whatever reason, this was the one.
- 24:57Speaker 7: This is the moment.
- 24:57Speaker 1: And you poured, you know, some water on the computer
- 25:01Speaker 1: and everything short circuited and this person straight up went
- 25:05Speaker 1: psychotic for months, did not know who they were, were
- 25:09Speaker 1: hallucinating delusion, A whole different person went from being like
- 25:14Speaker 1: what anybody in their life would have described as like
- 25:17Speaker 1: just the sweetest, most humble, gentle person in the world
- 25:20Speaker 1: to just being a raging maniac who was aggressive and
- 25:24Speaker 1: terrible and untreatable, right because like it's really hard to
- 25:28Speaker 1: like set that person down, tell them, Hey, this is
- 25:30Speaker 1: a psychiatrist. They're going to help me. Like, I don't
- 25:31Speaker 1: know fing problem. I'm fine. You're all crazy, you're all
- 25:34Speaker 1: against me, you're all Nazis, and like wouldn't take medication.
- 25:38Speaker 1: They had to hospitalize this patient. I mean a real
- 25:41Speaker 1: train wreck, and I just really appreciate what your patient said, Whitney,
- 25:44Speaker 1: that's like, why isn't anybody talking about this? And I'll
- 25:48Speaker 1: be honest, like, even as a substance abuse professional, I'm
- 25:51Speaker 1: nervous to talk about it.
- 25:53Speaker 3: It's just it's not studied.
- 25:55Speaker 1: There was so little information on that well. And I
- 25:58Speaker 1: think this.
- 26:01Speaker 2: I admittedly have not dove too much into the research lately,
- 26:06Speaker 2: but that was part of the issue going back like
- 26:09Speaker 2: fifteen years ago. You know, It's like if you're going
- 26:13Speaker 2: to study it, you know you have to you have
- 26:16Speaker 2: there's so many variables that you have to be able
- 26:18Speaker 2: to control, and with a lot of THHC, it's hard
- 26:21Speaker 2: to do that.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Like what is the dose?
- 26:23Speaker 2: Right, Like you have to know what the dose is
- 26:25Speaker 2: to be able to really accurately measure your results, and
- 26:29Speaker 2: that has always been a challenge with a lot of
- 26:31Speaker 2: this is like how do we how do I know
- 26:34Speaker 2: that all of you know, the participants in this study
- 26:38Speaker 2: are receiving the same dose at the same time and.
- 26:41Speaker 1: All the extra flavors and things that go into it, right,
- 26:43Speaker 1: Like the turbans, is that what they're short?
- 26:46Speaker 3: Yeah, there's all that sort of stuff. But also I
- 26:48Speaker 3: think that a huge part of it.
- 26:51Speaker 8: Imagine if today we were trying to decide whether or not,
- 26:54Speaker 8: like imagine that alcohol was new, right, and we're just
- 26:57Speaker 8: trying today to decide whether or not alcohol is going
- 27:00Speaker 8: to be legal, and we could look at it in
- 27:03Speaker 8: the eyes of a person, uh, you know, hundreds of
- 27:06Speaker 8: years ago, thousands of years ago, and say, well, if
- 27:09Speaker 8: I drink a lot of this, I get real goofy.
- 27:11Speaker 8: If I if I drink a little bit of it,
- 27:13Speaker 8: I feel a little goofy, but I could still control things.
- 27:17Speaker 8: You're just looking at it like that. If I drink
- 27:19Speaker 8: a whole lot of it, I get sick. Uh, you know,
- 27:22Speaker 8: I might pass out.
- 27:23Speaker 1: Uh.
- 27:23Speaker 8: And and there's some negative side effects if I drink
- 27:25Speaker 8: a lot of it. And that was kind of the
- 27:28Speaker 8: end all be all of the study into alcohol when
- 27:32Speaker 8: it was being decided whether we're going to make this
- 27:34Speaker 8: a legal substance or not. If we were studying a
- 27:38Speaker 8: new thing today that was alcohol, would be looking at
- 27:42Speaker 8: it the way we're looking at THHC. We'd be looking
- 27:44Speaker 8: at like brain effects, would be looking at you know,
- 27:47Speaker 8: how it affects blood pressure, cholesterol, all these types of
- 27:50Speaker 8: things that we never thought about and we don't think
- 27:52Speaker 8: about now, correct And like with with with drugs and
- 27:56Speaker 8: a spec like marijuana is getting studied now more than
- 28:00Speaker 8: ever has I think at any point in history. Oh yeah, yeah,
- 28:03Speaker 8: And there are a lot of good things about that.
- 28:05Speaker 8: There are a lot of maybe not great things about
- 28:08Speaker 8: it because now you've got corporations and kind of commerce
- 28:12Speaker 8: involved in the study of these things. So there's vested
- 28:15Speaker 8: interests saying that that want to say, like, yes, this
- 28:18Speaker 8: is good, and know this isn't right, man, Like, as
- 28:21Speaker 8: soon as you get into all that processed stuff, it
- 28:24Speaker 8: gets it gets weird quick well, and.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Especially like I like you bring up the process point,
- 28:28Speaker 1: like when in when Vegas legalized marijuana in seventeen, one
- 28:32Speaker 1: of the very first things that came out was like,
- 28:35Speaker 1: this ain't your granddaddy's MJ right, like, because you know,
- 28:38Speaker 1: the old after school special was a very different potency
- 28:42Speaker 1: than all of us industrializing this shit and getting the
- 28:45Speaker 1: high potency strains that we could get get so that
- 28:47Speaker 1: we could get the most bang for the buck.
- 28:49Speaker 2: I've had conversations with people about this exact topic because, like,
- 28:53Speaker 2: you know, when I was running in a treatment program
- 28:57Speaker 2: for adolescents, you know, teenagers.
- 29:00Speaker 1: That was a big thing.
- 29:00Speaker 2: Is like you know, parents would be like, well, I'm
- 29:04Speaker 2: not so much worried about the marijuana, so on and
- 29:06Speaker 2: so forth. It's like, well, you probably should be. And
- 29:08Speaker 2: the only reason is because even though you consider this
- 29:11Speaker 2: benign substance, like even if that is the case, I'll
- 29:15Speaker 2: grant you that. Let's just say that's the case. If
- 29:19Speaker 2: that is the case, you are still this is still
- 29:22Speaker 2: an adolescent with a developing brain, right, you kind of
- 29:26Speaker 2: have to pay attention to anything that goes into this brain.
- 29:29Speaker 8: Yes, like if the kid were eating thirty ham sandwiches,
- 29:32Speaker 8: yes you'll say something about it, or just ham sandwich
- 29:38Speaker 8: is much more benign than a ham sandwich, right, But
- 29:41Speaker 8: even if you say it's benign, well I'm eating thirty
- 29:44Speaker 8: of the.
- 29:46Speaker 1: Salmon, right, Well.
- 29:51Speaker 2: You know these teenagers are where their salmon salmon, always
- 29:55Speaker 2: eating their sale. But but like you know, and I've
- 30:00Speaker 2: had these conversations and then they're like, well, you know,
- 30:02Speaker 2: like I used to smoke when I was a teenager
- 30:05Speaker 2: and I turned out Okay, it's like that was in
- 30:07Speaker 2: the seventies. Yeah, that's a different marijuana than what we're
- 30:11Speaker 2: dealing with.
- 30:12Speaker 8: But like you go through the dispensaries now and you
- 30:14Speaker 8: get it, and you do have a pretty good understanding
- 30:19Speaker 8: or you can, you know, depending on how deep you
- 30:21Speaker 8: want to delve into it.
- 30:22Speaker 3: You have a pretty good understanding about what it actually is.
- 30:25Speaker 8: Yeah, they do it like here is this container, and
- 30:28Speaker 8: like here's what's actually in this container, which there's a
- 30:30Speaker 8: lot of be it a flower, be it whatever it is.
- 30:33Speaker 8: But yeah, you get into this other ship. Yeah, and
- 30:36Speaker 8: and like maybe this person had a reaction to THC eight.
- 30:42Speaker 1: Well, and I think that it.
- 30:43Speaker 8: Maybe they had a reaction to and it is hypot
- 30:45Speaker 8: it is and maybe they did a lot of it.
- 30:48Speaker 8: We also don't know the amount. Sure, we don't know
- 30:50Speaker 8: if there if there were a ham position.
- 30:53Speaker 1: Yeah, they might have so many things that it could be.
- 30:55Speaker 1: I don't look at tcow and and think of regular marriorana.
- 31:00Speaker 3: To me, I think hash.
- 31:02Speaker 1: Yeah, when we're starting to talk about eight, I'm starting
- 31:05Speaker 1: to think of that more as like a watered down
- 31:10Speaker 1: psilocybin to me, Like we're starting to really emphasize the
- 31:14Speaker 1: ship that leads into psychosis.
- 31:15Speaker 8: But it's still not getting into hallucinogenic stuff. It's not No,
- 31:18Speaker 8: it won't ever be that.
- 31:19Speaker 1: But like it's not going to be in that weight class,
- 31:22Speaker 1: but like C eight is getting to a place where
- 31:25Speaker 1: it's starting to fiddle with the recipe to a point
- 31:28Speaker 1: that it is exaggerating those psychotic it is and it's
- 31:32Speaker 1: it's just not classic marijuana anymore. And again that's it.
- 31:35Speaker 1: I don't want it to come off as like marijuana
- 31:37Speaker 1: is benign and this Frankenstein breed is not. I just
- 31:40Speaker 1: I appreciate the letter because I think we don't get
- 31:43Speaker 1: to talk enough about how common we as therapists are
- 31:47Speaker 1: seeing people who are having psychotic episodes just using what
- 31:51Speaker 1: we all think of as kind of benign stuff that.
- 31:55Speaker 8: Every single week, I mean every show in town here
- 31:59Speaker 8: has stories every single week, multiple multiple every week of
- 32:04Speaker 8: people coming in and then having to be taken out
- 32:06Speaker 8: by E. M. T. S W during the show because
- 32:10Speaker 8: they're they're coming in, they're going into you know, see
- 32:13Speaker 8: oh over at the Blaggio and take a handful of
- 32:17Speaker 8: gummies before they sit down there, taking.
- 32:19Speaker 3: Edibles, oftentimes for the first time. That's the thing. They're
- 32:23Speaker 3: mixing it with booze.
- 32:24Speaker 8: There might be a couple of drugs, there might be
- 32:26Speaker 8: a little weed, there might be a little coked. There
- 32:28Speaker 8: might be a little something else going on in there too,
- 32:30Speaker 8: and like people are getting and they're they're just saying, like, oh,
- 32:34Speaker 8: it's weed. So I'm gonna take, you know, fifty milligrams
- 32:38Speaker 8: of this gummy.
- 32:39Speaker 1: I want to really feel it.
- 32:40Speaker 3: That's not that much.
- 32:41Speaker 2: Maybe a little off topic, but I'm gonna take a
- 32:44Speaker 2: bunch of gummies. Oh, I don't think would be my
- 32:46Speaker 2: first choice of.
- 32:47Speaker 1: If you're gonna get, you don't want to get. Yeah,
- 32:51Speaker 1: I feel I mean love was still going.
- 32:54Speaker 8: I think, I mean clearly what you want to do
- 32:56Speaker 8: is go on a night where the dead are playing
- 32:58Speaker 8: at the sphere.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the mech I saw.
- 33:02Speaker 2: I saw an Instagram reel of somebody who was at
- 33:04Speaker 2: that show tripping their balls.
- 33:08Speaker 1: And they like fell down. They were looking up at
- 33:11Speaker 1: the sphere. Yeah, and they were just like a trance,
- 33:16Speaker 1: but like not happy, like they were scared to die.
- 33:19Speaker 1: That's a lot like it was for me. If I'm
- 33:21Speaker 1: gonna get high and see a show, I think I'm
- 33:22Speaker 1: gonna go to the West Wind Drive in movie Theater.
- 33:25Speaker 1: I think that's where I'm gonna go. Oh, you don't
- 33:27Speaker 1: need to be high for that.
- 33:30Speaker 3: There, you will get h there'll be a contact. Going
- 33:34Speaker 3: to the Westwood movie.
- 33:35Speaker 1: It's a fun times in the middle of nowhere.
- 33:37Speaker 3: We pulled the truck up, we back it in.
- 33:39Speaker 8: We have a boot box in the bat so we've
- 33:41Speaker 8: got we put bean bags in the middle.
- 33:43Speaker 3: Watch drive in movie.
- 33:45Speaker 1: It's also get you a pizza.
- 33:46Speaker 8: But yeah, we have like a cooler cooler and everything
- 33:50Speaker 8: booze and whatever it is.
- 33:51Speaker 1: It's all the time. But yeah, I know this, this
- 33:53Speaker 1: needs to be talked about more. But like what I
- 33:55Speaker 1: was saying earlier, why doesn't he get talked about? I
- 33:58Speaker 1: think a people that have bad experiences, I don't think
- 34:02Speaker 1: they want to share that story, in part because there
- 34:06Speaker 1: has been a lot of bad faith hysteria, and I
- 34:09Speaker 1: think that there's this mentality of like, well, I don't
- 34:11Speaker 1: want to contribute to that nonsense. And then I think
- 34:13Speaker 1: also they're probably pro using these things, you know, and
- 34:17Speaker 1: they've already kind of cast that vote in their life,
- 34:19Speaker 1: and the people that they associate with are pro that too,
- 34:22Speaker 1: And there's the sense of like, well, this isn't part
- 34:24Speaker 1: of the party message. I don't want to say that
- 34:26Speaker 1: because it doesn't groove with what we all believe. And
- 34:29Speaker 1: then I might be seen as like somebody who's off
- 34:31Speaker 1: or must have been doing something more than I was
- 34:33Speaker 1: telling you or whatever. And like, as a therapist, I
- 34:36Speaker 1: struggle with it too, because if I tell people, I've
- 34:40Speaker 1: had a shitload of patients have really bad reactions. There's
- 34:43Speaker 1: been psychotic episodes that have gotten them hospitalized and fucked
- 34:46Speaker 1: up their brain to the point that there's no repairing it.
- 34:48Speaker 1: And they were just doing something benign that we all
- 34:51Speaker 1: think of as benign, like fucking shrooms on a regular
- 34:53Speaker 1: campout or whatever. I'm seen as old nineteen fifties, fucking Nixonian,
- 35:00Speaker 1: you know, guy, I'm fucking Nancy Reagan. Like immediately it's oh,
- 35:03Speaker 1: here comes just say no Jim and he's a square,
- 35:06Speaker 1: and it's like, I'm just I don't know health care.
- 35:08Speaker 8: Here's here's how we can make it right though, what
- 35:11Speaker 8: is what do you think maybe you know, percentage wise,
- 35:15Speaker 8: what are we looking at?
- 35:16Speaker 3: Like what rare? But I mean how rare?
- 35:18Speaker 7: I mean we don't know because people won't admit to
- 35:20Speaker 7: it too. And then there's different levels. And that was
- 35:23Speaker 7: the next thing I was going to kind of get into,
- 35:24Speaker 7: where maybe it's not uh, cannabis related, but the depersonalization
- 35:30Speaker 7: like other people. I was actually talking about the symptoms
- 35:33Speaker 7: because it's so shocking of this client with like another
- 35:36Speaker 7: person in my life, and they were like, Oh, I've
- 35:39Speaker 7: kind of had that experience sometimes. I'm like what you have?
- 35:42Speaker 7: I'm like, do people think this is normal? You know
- 35:45Speaker 7: what I mean? When we experienced things and we don't
- 35:46Speaker 7: realize it's that abnormal, it's like anyway. So it's hard
- 35:49Speaker 7: because people just aren't talking about it in general. So
- 35:52Speaker 7: I think that's why it's important to mention, whether it's
- 35:54Speaker 7: cannabis related or not, or shrooms, you know.
- 35:57Speaker 8: I think it's fair to say that, you know, it's rare.
- 35:59Speaker 8: These these things are rare, but they do, but they happen.
- 36:02Speaker 1: I do think it all seems to be great on
- 36:03Speaker 1: a spectrum. And this kind of goes adjacent to what
- 36:05Speaker 1: you were just saying, Whitney, because like, it's one thing
- 36:07Speaker 1: when somebody gets so fucking psychotic that they're family and friendly,
- 36:11Speaker 1: notice it, right, whether it's years, weeks, months, or days.
- 36:14Speaker 1: But it's like so obvious that friends and family are like, bro,
- 36:17Speaker 1: we're taking you to a psych hospital. R okay, cool?
- 36:20Speaker 1: That is a data point that's impossible to ignore, right,
- 36:22Speaker 1: This person cannot go to work right. But then there's
- 36:25Speaker 1: these other variations where people don't quite reach that level,
- 36:29Speaker 1: but they are depersonalizing, they are dissociating, they are derealizing.
- 36:34Speaker 1: There is this subacute level of difference they're feeling, and
- 36:38Speaker 1: they're feeling like the rubber band got stretched too far,
- 36:42Speaker 1: and like they can function and they're getting through, but
- 36:45Speaker 1: like there is this lingering like haze that they're in
- 36:48Speaker 1: for a while where there's cognitive loss and they're like,
- 36:52Speaker 1: and like that isn't being reported. I don't think. I
- 36:55Speaker 1: don't think that we're studying that enough. I think it's
- 36:57Speaker 1: also not story worthy because it's almost like you had
- 37:00Speaker 1: a bad hangover and it's like, oh, you don't really
- 37:02Speaker 1: mention that as part of your alcohol relationship. You're just like,
- 37:05Speaker 1: I've just had some bad ones where it lasted several days.
- 37:07Speaker 1: I think there are people that are meddling with some
- 37:09Speaker 1: of these street drugs or even cannabis that are having
- 37:12Speaker 1: that like the rubber band got stretched too far experience
- 37:15Speaker 1: and there's like a cognitive like weirdness for a while,
- 37:18Speaker 1: but it's not quite psychosis, right, but like it eventually
- 37:25Speaker 1: you know, and then they get through it and it's like, okay,
- 37:27Speaker 1: so then how do we feel about that?
- 37:28Speaker 8: And it's like and it's also it's so it's such
- 37:31Speaker 8: an unknown right that like it's like a Nix said earlier,
- 37:35Speaker 8: you can't regulate it with amount exactly right, and then
- 37:39Speaker 8: you've got time between.
- 37:40Speaker 3: Like there's so many moving parts.
- 37:42Speaker 1: The variables are many. Also family history, you know, so
- 37:46Speaker 1: we're not sure what it is interacting with also, so
- 37:51Speaker 1: you know, there's there's underlying preconditions there.
- 37:53Speaker 8: I told you guys about my I have a cousin
- 37:56Speaker 8: that works with psilocybin. He studies psilocybin at a at
- 38:00Speaker 8: a facility in Arkansas, I believe, and they study it
- 38:04Speaker 8: in uh with what do you call the m R
- 38:08Speaker 8: I machines that are like real time. Yeah, so they're
- 38:14Speaker 8: using uh intravenous psilocybin and functional MRIs to watch the
- 38:20Speaker 8: brain and watch the reactions happen and then they can
- 38:23Speaker 8: flush with saline and stop the trip like on a dime.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Wow.
- 38:29Speaker 8: Yeah, Like the advances and things like, they are working
- 38:33Speaker 8: so much on this and like a lot of stuff
- 38:35Speaker 8: that he's specifically working with has to do with like
- 38:37Speaker 8: Alzheimer's and dementia and that kind of thing, rebuilding pathways
- 38:41Speaker 8: in the brain with psilocybins really interesting. That's the thing is,
- 38:46Speaker 8: there's so many interesting things out there like that, and
- 38:49Speaker 8: I don't understand that. Like I just told you everything
- 38:51Speaker 8: I know about job. I can explain it to you
- 38:56Speaker 8: the way I understand it, which is though, but you
- 39:00Speaker 8: there's so little actual knowledge, especially not general knowledge, right.
- 39:03Speaker 1: And now that these things are becoming popularized among society,
- 39:06Speaker 1: we're getting these larger data sets now through public health records,
- 39:10Speaker 1: which historically we didn't have because even though this has
- 39:13Speaker 1: always existed, it wasn't popularized, So we weren't seeing like
- 39:17Speaker 1: the suburban folks getting loaded checking in with their insurance
- 39:21Speaker 1: to a hospital and that data being recorded right like
- 39:23Speaker 1: we were seeing it more like you know, people on
- 39:25Speaker 1: the street or whatever. So like it's definitely, you know,
- 39:28Speaker 1: giving us more insight. But I really just I've always
- 39:31Speaker 1: taken the position with the stuff, all of this stuff,
- 39:34Speaker 1: not just the cannabis, but like all these pieces. I
- 39:36Speaker 1: want to have a nuanced adult conversation about this, and
- 39:42Speaker 1: anytime somebody wants to come at me and be like, Nope,
- 39:45Speaker 1: it's all good, it's all wonderful. It's like, look, I
- 39:48Speaker 1: get your platform. You can make the argument that adults
- 39:52Speaker 1: are consenting, informed individuals and they should be accessing legal
- 39:56Speaker 1: things in a controlled and regulated way that's pure and
- 39:58Speaker 1: clean and safe. That's fine. I'm not a politician. I
- 40:02Speaker 1: am just a healthcare provider, and as a healthcare provider,
- 40:04Speaker 1: I don't really have a dog in the fight. Like
- 40:06Speaker 1: I don't know that I care whether these things are
- 40:08Speaker 1: legalized or not. It's about my pay grade. But I
- 40:10Speaker 1: don't want us to ever whitewash or paint over shit
- 40:14Speaker 1: and pretend or downplay these things because of the past antics,
- 40:18Speaker 1: because of the past hysterias, because the arguments in the
- 40:20Speaker 1: conversation was at times unfair and instilted or leaning. I
- 40:25Speaker 1: don't want to skip over shit like this and this
- 40:27Speaker 1: story and the patients we've had, because as healthcare professionals,
- 40:30Speaker 1: we have a responsibility to inform the public of everything
- 40:33Speaker 1: we learn and know so that they can see it.
- 40:35Speaker 1: And like, look, if you're going to try shrooms for
- 40:37Speaker 1: their first time or THC eight, are you likely to
- 40:39Speaker 1: have a psychotic episode the very first time we try it? Statistically,
- 40:42Speaker 1: my guess would be no. But I also want you
- 40:44Speaker 1: to know that that bullet's in the gun and like
- 40:47Speaker 1: that could happen, and that's part of you being an
- 40:49Speaker 1: informed consumer, right, and us as an informed public thinking
- 40:52Speaker 1: that through as well, and especially for adolescents, Like there's
- 40:57Speaker 1: a reason in Las Vegas cannabis is legal. I think
- 41:00Speaker 1: is it twenty one and older? I don't think it's eighteen,
- 41:02Speaker 1: it's twenty and like that's fine, and like we as
- 41:06Speaker 1: a society voted on that, but like zero percent of
- 41:09Speaker 1: us want kids having this shit. And all the data
- 41:12Speaker 1: we see with kids who are getting loaded early is
- 41:14Speaker 1: they're getting fucked up, like the IQ it is messing
- 41:18Speaker 1: up their neurodevelopment. It is causing early on set psychosis.
- 41:22Speaker 1: We are seeing schizophrenia in situations that are not genetically indicated,
- 41:26Speaker 1: so like this is artificially generated schizophren It just there
- 41:29Speaker 1: are some really concerning things, and like even this discussion
- 41:32Speaker 1: of like MDMA and some of these medicines, like are
- 41:36Speaker 1: drugs being utilized for medicine purposes? There has been a
- 41:39Speaker 1: lot of interesting shit that's gone down in the last
- 41:41Speaker 1: year and a half about these studies and like FDA
- 41:44Speaker 1: trials and stuff, and like a lot of people like
- 41:46Speaker 1: believing the hype so hard that these things were perfect
- 41:50Speaker 1: and flawless, and the man was going to try to
- 41:52Speaker 1: keep it down when truth is, pharmaceutical companies are chomping
- 41:56Speaker 1: at the bit to be able to fucking mass produce
- 41:58Speaker 1: MTMA and sell that shit. They will have money there.
- 42:01Speaker 1: It is, you know.
- 42:02Speaker 3: But like we saw welcome to the three of you
- 42:05Speaker 3: that were really upset about.
- 42:06Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Jacob got ahead of me on that. Stay
- 42:08Speaker 1: out of the disc about it.
- 42:10Speaker 3: Is it chomping at the bit?
- 42:11Speaker 1: Yeah, it apparently it's champing champing. But no, like the
- 42:15Speaker 1: FDA studies recently with one of the medicines I think
- 42:18Speaker 1: it was the MBMA study came back basically saying no,
- 42:21Speaker 1: it didn't work. There was an entirely independent panel that
- 42:25Speaker 1: said nope, the science did not add up. There's a
- 42:27Speaker 1: lot of shanigans going on. It did not add up.
- 42:29Speaker 1: The FDA came alongside it completely a politically just doing
- 42:32Speaker 1: the science, and the medicine said nope, this did not
- 42:34Speaker 1: do what it said it was going to do. We
- 42:36Speaker 1: are seeing false, falsified results, and everybody in there it
- 42:40Speaker 1: was like, oh my good conspiracy man, this shit changed
- 42:42Speaker 1: my life. How dare you, and it's like, dude, shut
- 42:45Speaker 1: the fuck up, Like, we've got a science this shit,
- 42:47Speaker 1: and we've got to figure it out for the public good,
- 42:49Speaker 1: and we need questions like this and reflections like ours
- 42:53Speaker 1: to punch some fucking holes in some of the mythology
- 42:55Speaker 1: here that this shit is flawless and it's perfect and
- 42:57Speaker 1: I'll never do anything wrong. And if you had a
- 42:59Speaker 1: bad experien with it, or somebody else had a bad
- 43:01Speaker 1: experience with it, they're lying, and you did something wrong
- 43:03Speaker 1: where your strain was tainted. That's all it is. No,
- 43:06Speaker 1: it is not that it is a roll of the
- 43:07Speaker 1: dice every single time. These are very powerful, psychoactive substances.
- 43:11Speaker 1: We do not know how they will affect you. I
- 43:13Speaker 1: don't know how fucking tailan All will affect you. But
- 43:16Speaker 1: tiland All's been around long enough, and we've experimented with
- 43:18Speaker 1: it long enough, and we've had it mass produced for
- 43:20Speaker 1: long enough that we can safely say the vast majority
- 43:23Speaker 1: of the time it will not affect you in an
- 43:25Speaker 1: adverse way.
- 43:25Speaker 7: You can say that pretty confidently, right.
- 43:27Speaker 1: But these things are not that you know, and in
- 43:30Speaker 1: natural or not, you know, synthetic or not, laboratory, existing
- 43:33Speaker 1: or not, you know, hyped or high potency or not.
- 43:36Speaker 1: We just don't know what they're gonna do, like casual
- 43:39Speaker 1: ass cannabis, Yeah, probably not, but thcdohow yeah. Man, we're
- 43:43Speaker 1: starting to dabble in some shit that's leading to psychotic episodes,
- 43:45Speaker 1: and we're seeing that in other things as well, So
- 43:48Speaker 1: it's important that this kind of stuff gets discussed. I'm
- 43:51Speaker 1: really glad that you brought it up, Jesse. You know,
- 43:52Speaker 1: this kind of stuff, we don't get a chance to
- 43:54Speaker 1: talk about it, And honestly, I'm nervous to talk about
- 43:56Speaker 1: shit like this because usually the pushback is peel like it.
- 44:01Speaker 1: I'm glad for the opportunity because like we've had I've
- 44:05Speaker 1: had patients that are like, you know, getting hospitalized and
- 44:07Speaker 1: over this. But like, whenever the average patient mentions to
- 44:10Speaker 1: me that they want to go dabbling this stuff, I
- 44:13Speaker 1: have to be very thoughtful of trying to warn them
- 44:16Speaker 1: that I've seen cases like this, because if I say
- 44:19Speaker 1: that a little too loudly, I come off as like
- 44:23Speaker 1: some Nancy Reagan. Just say no, person who's unsafe to
- 44:26Speaker 1: talk to about this? Like I have a political incstagram.
- 44:28Speaker 2: If there's anybody on this show who we would consider
- 44:31Speaker 2: the Nancy Reagan of pod there.
- 44:33Speaker 1: Okay, okay, we know okay. Also my stripper name Dancy Reagan. Yeah,
- 44:44Speaker 1: what first lady.
- 44:45Speaker 2: Would Jacob ben Ladies.
- 44:49Speaker 1: La La, No, she's well, she might have been. I
- 44:58Speaker 1: like to believe it. Yeah, in the fantasy I've had
- 45:00Speaker 1: of Laura Bush, she is. No, she's too applesauce man.
- 45:03Speaker 1: I think of him as like the Hillary Clinton and
- 45:06Speaker 1: and like I realized she's got her own baggage now.
- 45:08Speaker 1: But like as a first lady, she was a rogue.
- 45:10Speaker 1: She was out there doing her own ship, trying to
- 45:12Speaker 1: reform healthcare. She wasn't living in his shadow, and she
- 45:14Speaker 1: didn't give a shit if Bill was getting blown by Monica.
- 45:17Speaker 1: She had ship to do. And that's that's your Jacob Smith.
- 45:19Speaker 1: He doesn't give a fuck who's blowing you. He just
- 45:21Speaker 1: wants to make life better for.
- 45:22Speaker 3: A lady bird Mary Todd Lincoln.
- 45:28Speaker 1: Oh, I like that. I like to get Jesse, thank
- 45:40Speaker 1: you for this question. Really appreciate the opportunity to talk
- 45:42Speaker 1: more about this and hopefully it opens up conversations.
- 45:45Speaker 7: Right, I'm the discord.
- 45:46Speaker 1: More truth is better, right, So I'm sure people in
- 45:49Speaker 1: the discord have some stories on this It's just an
- 45:51Speaker 1: opportunity for us all to learn from our shared experiences.
- 45:54Speaker 1: We're gonna take a quick break and when we come back,
- 45:56Speaker 1: we've got a feedback letter on weight loss and Jailles.
- 46:01Speaker 1: You're listening to pod Therapy.

- 46:21Speaker 2: music through the decades.
- 46:24Speaker 3: I don't know. I've done a Google search on who
- 46:26Speaker 3: is the best first lady?
- 46:28Speaker 1: Oh okay, I'm all right. Hold on, let's all take
- 46:31Speaker 1: a shot at the standard. Oh there's only one standard.
- 46:34Speaker 3: I just put in the best.
- 46:36Speaker 1: There's one one first lady head and shoulders.
- 46:40Speaker 3: It gives me a top ten list.
- 46:42Speaker 1: All right, I want I'm gonna take a shot at
- 46:43Speaker 1: number one, right now, go ahead, Eleanor Roosevelt all fucking day.
- 46:47Speaker 1: Arguably she was the first female president.
- 46:50Speaker 3: Best first lady, you're saying best first lady.
- 46:52Speaker 1: Lady heads and shoulders with eleanor Roosevelt.
- 46:54Speaker 3: Eleanor Roosevelt, Yeah or nay?
- 46:57Speaker 1: Or are you going to take a shot at somebody else?
- 46:59Speaker 7: I'll just I'm gonna piggyback off Nick.
- 47:03Speaker 2: Who was the I'll say, yeah, no, uh hell at
- 47:10Speaker 2: the bottom Carter.
- 47:11Speaker 1: There there is.
- 47:13Speaker 7: No like wait, I know that.
- 47:15Speaker 3: Who was the Who was the one? Rosalind Roslyn Roster Carter?
- 47:19Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 47:21Speaker 3: She's love.
- 47:22Speaker 1: She's was supposed to be just the one who was
- 47:24Speaker 1: like he was ship the president was his wife's caretaker,
- 47:31Speaker 1: like she was a child, and he raised her and
- 47:36Speaker 1: then married her in office. This has to be a
- 47:38Speaker 1: hopefully earlier presidents. This better not be anybody in the
- 47:41Speaker 1: modern area. Definitely that would suck. It was pre Carter.
- 47:45Speaker 1: I know it's probably Jefferson because it wasn't everybody should
- 47:51Speaker 1: have been Cleveland. I don't think it was Grover Cleveland,
- 47:54Speaker 1: but it was somewhere around that time.
- 47:55Speaker 3: Anyway, I can tell you right now who it was.
- 47:58Speaker 3: It was Grover Cleveland. Okay, Okay, that's.
- 48:01Speaker 1: What I thought. Way to go, Cleveland. So who's your
- 48:03Speaker 1: nomination for best first lady of all time? It's not
- 48:07Speaker 1: going to be, but I'll take Michelle Obama, but it I.
- 48:11Speaker 3: Like Michelle Obama did not make the top ten list.
- 48:18Speaker 1: D eleanor Roosevelt number one easily easily.
- 48:23Speaker 8: I still don't know what the criteria of that is.
- 48:26Speaker 8: It has a list of criteria there, but.
- 48:27Speaker 1: Not to standard, is it? Jim Yes? What? Nineteen sixties
- 48:33Speaker 1: album is often credited with inspiring the Summer of Love
- 48:38Speaker 1: options Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by the Beatles,
- 48:43Speaker 1: pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. Are you experienced by

- 49:24Speaker 2: want to shot?
- 49:25Speaker 1: Take a random I also would like to pick this Angus. Okay,
- 49:33Speaker 1: it's still not I want to bounce that off the
- 49:35Speaker 1: backboard and see if we can try again.
- 49:38Speaker 2: You can give the answer, but you got to do
- 49:39Speaker 2: it in his voice?
- 49:44Speaker 1: Very good? All right, Jacob?
- 49:48Speaker 3: Which rapper worked better than I thought it was?
- 49:51Speaker 1: Which rapper released the influential nineteen eighty eight albums straight

- 50:33Speaker 1: Yes? What is what is a Whitney?
- 50:36Speaker 8: Possibly gonna do a whole bit about I was not
- 50:41Speaker 8: actually saying that I thought.
- 50:43Speaker 1: You fooled me. I may have reacted so hard that
- 50:46Speaker 1: I lost you the question.
- 50:48Speaker 3: All right.
- 50:49Speaker 1: I may have convinced Nick that you were serious. We
- 50:50Speaker 1: can do three more if we go quick. That's there.
- 50:52Speaker 1: We've got the time. What did Madonna? What year did
- 50:56Speaker 1: Madonna release her debut album? Oh? Oh, Jesus, can I
- 51:00Speaker 1: ask you what the debut album was? It was her

- 51:12Speaker 1: gonna yeah, I want to shoot from hip, but I'm
- 51:14Speaker 1: gonna take answers. Give me give me options.
- 51:16Speaker 2: Eighty one, eighty three, eighty four.
- 51:21Speaker 1: All right, answers around the list. I was gonna say
- 51:24Speaker 1: eighty five off the episode. Actually, I'm really glad I
- 51:27Speaker 1: take those.
- 51:27Speaker 3: I was thinking eighty six.
- 51:28Speaker 1: Let me go right for the middle of the pack.
- 51:32Speaker 1: Give me eighty two, No.
- 51:34Speaker 2: Eighty one, No eighty four, five points for Nick all
- 51:44Speaker 2: right Whitney, which band's drummer lost his arm in a
- 51:49Speaker 2: nineteen eighty four car accident and continued playing Wow, Oh
- 51:53Speaker 2: my gosh.
- 51:53Speaker 7: Options, I don't know you.
- 51:58Speaker 2: Ye Deaf Leopard, Metallica, Guns n' Roses or Motley Crue.
- 52:03Speaker 7: Oh my goodness, Flippard.
- 52:07Speaker 1: One has one R. I didn't know any of this me. Hey,
- 52:14Speaker 1: good job, well done. All right, Jacob, I think you
- 52:17Speaker 1: know this one? Okay? What was the first music video
- 52:19Speaker 1: ever played on MTV?
- 52:21Speaker 3: Video Killed the Radio.
- 52:22Speaker 1: Story, Bye the.
- 52:25Speaker 3: Ship?
- 52:26Speaker 1: Yeah, I go fuck yourself?
- 52:29Speaker 7: Yes?
- 52:29Speaker 1: Who is that joke? Is that? Bro? It is not?
- 52:35Speaker 3: Who is it?
- 52:37Speaker 7: The Buggles, The Bugles, the Bugles, Jesus.
- 52:42Speaker 1: Rolling down the street? A mop six vot All right,
- 52:46Speaker 1: back to the show. So who's winning? I am? I
- 52:49Speaker 1: got five points? I got Jim thought it was legitimately
- 52:52Speaker 1: run DMC was an option? I know it was crazy
- 52:57Speaker 1: there was.
- 52:57Speaker 8: A whole movie called Straight out of Compton with the watch.
- 53:01Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good movie.
- 53:03Speaker 1: If I would have gotten options, I think I would
- 53:05Speaker 1: have pulled n W out of there. Now I probably
- 53:07Speaker 1: wouldn't have. I would have, damn it. That's on me. Also,
- 53:12Speaker 1: I'm sorry that I reacted so hard to your joke
- 53:15Speaker 1: answer that I cost you the but also the legitimacy
- 53:18Speaker 1: of how horrified I was that I bought I swallowed
- 53:22Speaker 1: the hook. So I mean, at least you know what
- 53:25Speaker 1: you and didn't know the real answer. Yeah, yeah, Yeah.
- 53:30Speaker 1: The amount of outrage I had at your fake joke
- 53:33Speaker 1: answer and then fucking it up myself, that is perfect.
- 53:37Speaker 1: There's nothing about that was you losing anything? All right,
- 53:40Speaker 1: So we got a great feedback letter. So let's see.
- 53:43Speaker 1: I think this one references.
- 53:44Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 53:45Speaker 1: Okay, Hi, guys, I'm writing or I'm saying, guys. Since
- 53:48Speaker 1: Whitney wasn't there for the episode in question and doesn't
- 53:52Speaker 1: deserve it, I haven't off without it writing in about
- 53:58Speaker 1: your recent episode which was titled veggies on the Patreon
- 54:03Speaker 1: but veggietails.
- 54:04Speaker 3: Ye, exactly like veggietails.
- 54:06Speaker 1: It was episode three eighty one. For everybody listening and
- 54:09Speaker 1: the weight loss question you answered. I think y'all were
- 54:12Speaker 1: spot on with the context of how significantly personal the motivations, causes,
- 54:17Speaker 1: and struggles of weight loss are.
- 54:19Speaker 3: Oh, thank you very much, nailed it.
- 54:21Speaker 1: Thank you. That's all the time we go for today's.
- 54:23Speaker 7: Episode ends there.
- 54:26Speaker 1: We got the gist of it. Yeah, that's pretty much
- 54:28Speaker 1: what the author's trying to say. But I think there's
- 54:30Speaker 1: one area that you missed covering. I know you aren't prescribers,
- 54:33Speaker 1: so you generally don't talk a ton about medication on
- 54:36Speaker 1: the show. But since you had a medication and depression
- 54:40Speaker 1: question in that same episode and mentioned addiction treatment, which
- 54:43Speaker 1: can use medications, it feels like a missed opportunity to
- 54:47Speaker 1: at least mention the advances in medication based treatments for
- 54:51Speaker 1: weight loss and obesity. During your answer, you also mentioned
- 54:54Speaker 1: metabolic therapy and a comment about no prescriptions. It's all
- 54:59Speaker 1: inside like that was somehow better than a medication based approach. Again,
- 55:04Speaker 1: it all depends on the scale of necessary and moti
- 55:07Speaker 1: necessity and motivations for weight loss between Nick's desire to
- 55:11Speaker 1: just drop a few pounds to Jim's more pronounced loss.
- 55:14Speaker 1: I'll chime in with a little bit of where I'm
- 55:17Speaker 1: coming from as well. For my entire adult life, I've
- 55:20Speaker 1: been morbidly obese or class three slash severely obese if
- 55:25Speaker 1: we're being specific. My highest weight was probably somewhere around
- 55:28Speaker 1: four hundred and forty pounds. Starting last year and working
- 55:32Speaker 1: with a bariatric weight loss specialist, I'm down about seventy
- 55:36Speaker 1: pounds right now, with the eventual goal of landing around
- 55:39Speaker 1: two hundred pounds much further down the line. A significant
- 55:44Speaker 1: portion of this has been due to the newly popular
- 55:46Speaker 1: GLP one agonist medications like Wagovi and zep bound, both
- 55:52Speaker 1: of which are specifically approved for weight loss, unlike some
- 55:55Speaker 1: older names you may recognize for diabetes, but we're being
- 55:59Speaker 1: prescribed off label for their weight loss benefits. I was
- 56:02Speaker 1: surprised that you didn't at least give these medications a
- 56:05Speaker 1: mention in the same way you described SSRIs being used
- 56:09Speaker 1: to lessen the edge or reduce the effects of depression
- 56:12Speaker 1: to a point where other treatments could become more effective.
- 56:16Speaker 1: Since a major part of using these weight loss medications
- 56:19Speaker 1: is combining them with a fitness and diet or nutrition
- 56:22Speaker 1: component as well.
- 56:23Speaker 3: Fitness medication than your ASSO some pository.
- 56:27Speaker 1: Obviously a big mention needs to be made about very
- 56:31Speaker 1: spotty insurance coverage as well. Again, y'all know I love
- 56:35Speaker 1: the show and generally don't bother to write in a ton,
- 56:38Speaker 1: but wanted to make sure that this at least got
- 56:40Speaker 1: a quick mention your pal their producer Dan Martin. Good question,
- 56:47Speaker 1: So quick recap for Whitney out. So we had a
- 56:51Speaker 1: question that asked about the psychology of weight loss, and
- 56:55Speaker 1: basically it was asking us, you know, to comment on
- 56:59Speaker 1: what it's like to go through that process and then
- 57:02Speaker 1: also kind of mining for like brain hacks tricks like
- 57:05Speaker 1: what can we borrow from psychotherapy that might be helpful, right,
- 57:09Speaker 1: because it's easy to say eat less, exercise more, and
- 57:12Speaker 1: just kind of talk about the physiology. But the writer
- 57:15Speaker 1: of the question last week was sort of asking can
- 57:17Speaker 1: y'all just kind of think and reflect on like weight
- 57:20Speaker 1: loss from a mental health perspective, right, So basically our
- 57:24Speaker 1: answers ranged a lot of different things. It is, yeah, yeah,
- 57:28Speaker 1: it was. One of the things we talked about is
- 57:30Speaker 1: like it's among one of the harder things human being
- 57:31Speaker 1: can do. And we had a variety of comments on why.
- 57:34Speaker 1: But I think like our main takeaways in that particular question,
- 57:38Speaker 1: we were talking about how yeah right, yeah, you just
- 57:42Speaker 1: don't you lack the will, like if you just want
- 57:44Speaker 1: it bad enough, it can happen. But and we did
- 57:46Speaker 1: our best Andrew Tait in person, Yeah, yeah, yeah, we
- 57:51Speaker 1: just talked about snatch and from souls from otherfuckers. Ye,
- 57:55Speaker 1: your week, that's the problem.
- 57:58Speaker 2: But the episode goes far and crazy when you're not
- 58:01Speaker 2: here with Yeah, you.
- 58:03Speaker 1: Really needed some supervision. We brought in Handy a tizzle.
- 58:09Speaker 1: You did a great job. But no, like, we didn't
- 58:12Speaker 1: talk so much about medicines in that one. I shared
- 58:15Speaker 1: my weight loss journey pretty candidly with the audience. That's
- 58:18Speaker 1: that's pretty much the fine. Yeah, thanks thanks, So like
- 58:21Speaker 1: I kind of candidly talked about my journey, yeah, Jim
- 58:30Speaker 1: so Yeah, So we talked about all that, But earlier
- 58:32Speaker 1: in the episode we had talked about medicines is like
- 58:35Speaker 1: a cure for depression and why that was an important intervention.
- 58:38Speaker 1: So now you're caught up. But yeah, we didn't mention
- 58:40Speaker 1: GLP ones at all because I think we were giving
- 58:43Speaker 1: more psychology advice. But I think Dan's kind of circling
- 58:46Speaker 1: and being like obvious guys. You know, like that is
- 58:50Speaker 1: the most interesting news and weight loss in the last ever.
- 58:53Speaker 1: You know, we should talk about that. Yeah.
- 58:55Speaker 7: Well, and I know it's not necessarily like psychotherapy, but
- 58:59Speaker 7: it is to my understanding, like hitting craving sensors in
- 59:05Speaker 7: your brain, right, like, yeah, you.
- 59:08Speaker 1: Feel sated, that's all it's doing. Yeah, jlp ones are
- 59:11Speaker 1: essentially I forgot the the G and the ELA's, but
- 59:14Speaker 1: the P is for peptide. I remember that. Great, thanks,
- 59:18Speaker 1: And so functionally I know that it's imitating tide there
- 59:21Speaker 1: it is. That might have been a different one, I
- 59:23Speaker 1: don't know, but yeah, like I know that it's imitating.
- 59:26Speaker 8: A la lucagon like peptide one.
- 59:30Speaker 1: That's it, yep. And so they're there to instigate that
- 59:34Speaker 1: kind of thing in your in your body. And then
- 59:36Speaker 1: once your body senses that that particular peptide, it feels
- 59:40Speaker 1: saated and so you're right, like it basically attacks our
- 59:44Speaker 1: natural craving cycle for food and makes it so that
- 59:47Speaker 1: we don't necessarily want anything else and we don't want food,
- 59:51Speaker 1: like we just feel full. It tells the body you
- 59:52Speaker 1: are full. Yeah, And it's interesting, right because like if
- 59:55Speaker 1: you really get into it, like I really want to
- 59:57Speaker 1: just preface everything I'm about to say that I feel
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: that I can rightfully call myself an authority about mental
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: health issues. Nothing I'm about to say do I have
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: any training or credibility and whatsoever. But here we go.
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a shot at it. Never stopped us,
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: never stop me before. One of the interesting things that
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: happens with the stomach lining is that in theory, when
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: the stomach lining is like stretched and so it's it's
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: pulled taut because there's food inside your stomach, that's when
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: it starts to secrete the peptides, which I thought was
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: like peptide why why that causes the sense of satiation.
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: You're done, you're full, And it takes about twenty minutes
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: for I believe, for that to saturate the bloodstream and
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: give you that signal of fullness, and then therefore you stop.
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: But what's interesting is the larger your stomach gets, then
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: the more it will contract at various points. And when
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: it's wrinkly, when the inner lining of that that stomach
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: is is wrinkly, it secretes the other hormone, which says
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: you've got space to fill, you should eat right, And
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: so this becomes the runaway effect of growing your body
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: growing bigger and bigger, and then like that innerlining contracting,
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: and therefore you want to put more in it, and
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: then it takes more to fill you, and then round
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: and round the circle goes right. And so what's really
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: fascinating about like GLP ones and I think that the
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: miracle it's bringing to a lot of people's lives is
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: it's allowing us to interject in a rational way something
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: our body cannot rationally perceive. Right that you are fine,
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: that you've received all the necessary calories and nutrition for
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: your time. Don't believe what your body's telling you. And
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: so here's a way that the body thinks and communicates
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: that this medicine ultimately does. So I'm really glad that
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: Dan wrote in about this. It's a huge oversight on
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: our part, you know, the fact that we didn't even
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: mention this. We're talking about intermittent fasting, We're talking about
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: you know, weight loss, we're talking about working out, we're
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: talking about fitness. We spent a whole segment a talking
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: about the way that the brain and body chemistry can
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: be utilized as sort of an intervention.
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: I actually had a lot more on this that topic
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: that I was going to go over. Oh, we're just
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: we were just kind of running out of time, Okay,
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: so kind of remember it now.
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: Oh isn't that convenient? Yeah? Yeah? Fuck off? Well Dan,
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: first off, yeah, sick to do the show guys.
- 1:02:10Speaker 2: Uh so, Dan, first off, congrats, you're kicking ass.
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: That is.
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: You know, if you're asking kind of our thoughts on
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: I'll tell you my thoughts on on you know, medication
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: being used for this purpose.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: I'm all for it.
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: You know, honestly, at the end of the day, it
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: to me, it's kind of like I take the same approach.
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: It kind of feels the same to me as the
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: conversation around opioid medications.
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: Okay, you know because like methadone.
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: Methadone and orphine, uh yeah, all of that subtext, all
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: that stuff where it's like, uh, you know, talking about
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: the old timers will say like, oh, no, that's your
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: You're just swapping out.
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: One drug for another. You shouldn't do that.
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: There's a method for doing this this way the Nancy
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: Reagan so.
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: Synonymous same thing.
- 1:03:09Speaker 7: Uh.
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, like our main
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: purpose with all this is decreasing symptoms and improving functioning,
- 1:03:18Speaker 2: And if the medication is doing those two things, why
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: would we not use it? That's like, you know, it's
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: like we've it's kind of like, uh, you know, like
- 1:03:28Speaker 2: the invention of the calculator, where it's like, oh, well, kids,
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: if you teach them how to use a calculator, they're
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: not going to know how to do math. It's like, yeah,
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: but they live in a world with a calculator, Like, like,
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: why would we not use this technology to our advantage?
- 1:03:42Speaker 2: And you know, if if these medications are helpful, if
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: they're not causing you know, other problems, Yeah, why would we.
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: Not use this? Yeah? Yeah?
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: And and it may not be the answer. It's not
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: going to be the the have the complete answer to it.
- 1:03:57Speaker 2: But if it is a tool in the toolbox and
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: it works, let's utilize it.
- 1:04:01Speaker 7: Yeah, definitely. When the whole ozembic stuff really like became
- 1:04:07Speaker 7: a craze, and I don't know, was that a year
- 1:04:09Speaker 7: ago or so or two, I don't know, it's been
- 1:04:12Speaker 7: a while. When that first happened, I did watch a
- 1:04:15Speaker 7: lot of like YouTube commentary videos. I was like just curious,
- 1:04:18Speaker 7: I'm like, what are other people saying about this? And
- 1:04:20Speaker 7: I feel like it got a lot of hate in
- 1:04:22Speaker 7: the beginning. It still does. I think it gets a
- 1:04:25Speaker 7: lot of hate unnecessarily to an extent for reasons you
- 1:04:30Speaker 7: just named nick and the reason the writer is saying,
- 1:04:33Speaker 7: like this is helpful to give me that boost I
- 1:04:36Speaker 7: need and help me get to a manageable place to
- 1:04:39Speaker 7: kind of say I can do this, actually think about that.
- 1:04:43Speaker 7: With like antidepressants, I've had clients say, well, I've thought
- 1:04:47Speaker 7: for years and years and years about killing myself and
- 1:04:49Speaker 7: I took an antidepressant and I don't think about it,
- 1:04:53Speaker 7: and it kind of lets them know there's a world
- 1:04:56Speaker 7: you live in where you don't have to think about
- 1:04:58Speaker 7: killing yourself every day. So it's like giving you a
- 1:05:00Speaker 7: taste of what's possible what you were saying too, and so, uh,
- 1:05:05Speaker 7: I think I get nervous when and this isn't the
- 1:05:09Speaker 7: medication's fault, but when we teeter into what's available now,
- 1:05:12Speaker 7: which is people. I had a friend got it on Amazon.
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: Oh, you can just buy it on Amazon.
- 1:05:19Speaker 7: Something I don't know. Something is in the package she
- 1:05:22Speaker 7: gets and she lost weight.
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: So it's called.
- 1:05:30Speaker 7: A guy.
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: I know, we will hawk your bills.
- 1:05:43Speaker 7: But we teeter her into an area where, uh, from
- 1:05:46Speaker 7: looking at this person before, they were not even in
- 1:05:51Speaker 7: an overweight category for looking at Bay, but they were
- 1:05:54Speaker 7: unhappy with their weight, and so then they're taking this medication,
- 1:05:58Speaker 7: and I worry about things like it's because you're not
- 1:06:01Speaker 7: able to eat or feed your body appropriately, just like
- 1:06:04Speaker 7: with bypass surgeries and things like that. Okay, you're at
- 1:06:07Speaker 7: risk of losing muscle mass, and like it's just a
- 1:06:10Speaker 7: lot of effort to maintain.
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: Maybe the side effects didn't justify this.
- 1:06:15Speaker 7: For this, right, you need that if you were not
- 1:06:19Speaker 7: in maybe an obese or morbidly obese category where this
- 1:06:22Speaker 7: is saving your life, if you're in that sure versus
- 1:06:25Speaker 7: I want to be skinnier, which I don't know. I'm
- 1:06:28Speaker 7: not judging. I'm just like, there's more to think about.
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: I think that's a good nuanced perspective, right, which I mean,
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I think elective weight
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: loss procedures are not new, right, Like we've all seen
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: trim spas and like all these different you know, procedures
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: that people will undergo for all these variety of reasons,
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: just you know, to lose weight. And we might say, well,
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: should you medically qualify for all this extra work and
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: it's like no, but cosmetically, I choose to and it's
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: my body. I'm going to do what I do. And
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: it's like okay for sure, But I think what you're
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: trying to state there is just Hey, as a healthcare helper,
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: I just want to make sure people are thinking this
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: through because even though these are widely celebrated medicines, they
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: are changing people's lives, they are saving people's lives. They
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: are also becoming, you know, rather popularized as they should be.
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: And then we just want to make sure everybody's thinking
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: that through carefully consulting with a physician, right whereas your
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: buddy just straight up goes on like Amazon dot India.
- 1:07:22Speaker 7: And it's like injecting their You're like, it's like, you know.
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: I care about you a lot.
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: I just hope that you're about the ship that you
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: put into your body seems.
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: To know about what you're putting in your body. Whitney
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: or know who? Either way, Yeah, I forgot it.
- 1:07:45Speaker 7: Episode then I can't use it.
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: We just get royalties. That's really fat.
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: It's always this is always a tough topic to bring up.
- 1:08:00Speaker 7: I bet you hate it. As a personal trainer.
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: Like I don't know, but like you, there's no way
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: to talk about this without stepping in a trap. Sure,
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: And I think that's the frustrating part, is yeah, because
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: like you know, when you say something like like I
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: just said, like, hey, you know, if it's there, let's
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: let's use it as a toolbox. But then there's always
- 1:08:19Speaker 2: you can somebody can always throw in like okay, but
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: here's here's an extreme. Sure what you think this person
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: should do. It was like, well, no, because that's not
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: what I was saying.
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: But it's like, but.
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: It's it's it's such a hot topic right now to
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: just jump into. I was watching this uh uh this
- 1:08:37Speaker 2: YouTube clip of a guy who's a male model but
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: he's a plus size model and so you'd model clothing
- 1:08:45Speaker 2: for men whatever, but plus sizes and whatever, and uh for.
- 1:08:50Speaker 8: The USPS, yeah, he's a male model, male model, but
- 1:08:55Speaker 8: stamps on himself.
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: Seductively. Dude, USPS, really quick, some fucking advice. Just do that, like.
- 1:09:08Speaker 3: Spokesperson were just a male model.
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he just got his dick in a box,
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: Like come on, I've.
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: Got a priority package.
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: There is there isship.
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: Anyway, he came out publicly and he just said like, yeah,
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: I'm gonna lose some weight, and he was like, I'm
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: going to keep my career as a plus size model.
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: I just want to I'd like to drop about forty
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: pounds and no big reason. I just I wanted, you know,
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: all that and just that amount of fucking hate that
- 1:09:38Speaker 2: this guy got just for doing that, and just like
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: you don't have to do that. It's like, well, but
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: it's still his choice, and it's not you know, it's
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: not like he was, uh, you know, like significantly already underweight,
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: like it's an eating disorder and he's trying to lose weight.
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: It's like, can I comment on that for a second,
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: because you just you just touched a nerve that like
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: here we go. God damn it. I didn't expect this
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: from you too. I'm gonna agree with you, okay, but
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: it's a nerve that Like last episode, I mentioned like
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: the internet fasting, and I mentioned like how it was
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: slightly controversial. I didn't speak much more on that, but
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: like in the fasting community, this is something a lot
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: of us are really we struggle with a lot like you,
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: under no circumstances, do you tell friends and family that
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: you're doing this? Because of like what you just said,
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: like the blowback will be very aggressive, and I think
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: a lot of people that use GLP ones relate to
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: some of that energy. It's it's it's often not celebrated.
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: Friends are like are you sure you should and they're
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: questioning it and they're like, oh, you know, is that
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: really safe? Have you tried exercise? If you tried diet,
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: And there's all the second guessing, right, and it's very insulting.
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: I think that's a big part of it. It completely
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: bypasses a lot of the unique difficulties, especially in American
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: diet culture, and like the way that our food is
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: allowed to exist in all of its chemistries and why
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: this is uniquely difficult, but like it is really just difficult,
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: And it goes back to this idea of like, so,
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: like I mentioned that I've lost sixty pounds, and like
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: I had a colleague at one of the many jobs
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: that I have in the world who hadn't seen me
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: in months, just happened to never cross paths. We're in
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: the same building, we just never seemed to bump into
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: each other. And one day there was a group meeting
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: where this individual came into the meeting and had seen
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: me for the first time in months, and in front
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: of a large audience of people who I was addressing
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: at that moment, this individual absolutely could not help themselves
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: but to be shocked and say, oh my god, I
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: wasn't wearing baggy clothes like right remembers sweater and jeans.
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: I was wearing fitting clothes. And they were like, oh
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: my god, are you okay?
- 1:11:41Speaker 4: Oh shit?
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: And I was horrified, and I was like, I'm fine,
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: some tons of fun. Yeah, how are you? And this
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: individual walked up to the stage where I was addressing
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: an audience and said, oh my god, are you healthy?
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: Are you okay? And and It's like, yeah, just in the
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: middle of presentations, h thanks for calling me out.
- 1:11:59Speaker 7: I'll let you know my medical history right now.
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: And it was such an awkward moment and like I didn't,
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: I didn't respond in any negative way. I was but
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: I was completely flabbergas that I was completely caught off guard.
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: And all I could say was like to laugh and
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: be like, yeah, I'm great. How are you are you healthy?
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: Like to try to like almost like why would you ask?
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: That's a silly question? Are you healthy? Are you? Pal?
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: I haven't seen you in a long time. And I
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: think by that point they started to realize like, oh shit,
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: there's an audience here, and I'm I'm wrong. Yeah bye,
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: And just like they just like no, no, no, just
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: like shuttled across the off exactly like, oh shit, I'm sorry,
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: and just like had no no other recourses. But like,
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: these kinds of things come up a lot, and it
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: really does circle the usps, you know, male model that
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: you're talking about, and the stigma that goes along with
- 1:12:48Speaker 1: losing the weight. And this is something in the in
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: the fasting community that other people have discussed, and there's
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: this commentary that a lot of us will reflect upon
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: and be like, nobody gave a fuck when we were
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: eating ourselves to death, right, Like nobody gave a fuck
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: when we were all morbidly obese and fucking dying and like,
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: you know, dying from all the health hazards that come
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: with this shit. But when we decide to take some
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: goddamn medicine to lose some weight or do something that
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: works for us that is slightly drastic, all of a sudden,
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: everybody is a fucking opinion about it. And now they
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: all can't wait till run just be like, ooh, you
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: know that fisting could be bad for your pinker is no, no,
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: you know that this medicine could you know, make your
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: stomach go deaf or whatever the fuck And like now
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: you can't eat normal foods anymore, like if you tried
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: all these other things. First are you're drinking enough water?
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: And it's like, shut the actual fuck up, Like you know,
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: none of you gave a fuck whenever we were killing
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: ourselves with obesity. That's socially acceptable, you quietly like it's
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: really not good for you, But like nobody gave a
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: fuck when we put our fork in our mouth again.
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: But like everybody has a goddamn opinion when somebody tries
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: to get healthy, and if they're doing it by these
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: you know, helping means everybody wants to talk about it
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: because they think we're cheating, you know, or like something
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: like that. And just you said that and it just
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: wanted like it got my hair standing in the back
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: of my neck, Like I want to speak on behalf
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: of those like taking the GLP ones that often feel
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: like they're not allowed to fucking tell anybody because they'renna
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: beestion for it.
- 1:14:00Speaker 7: Yeah, I just want to say women have the reverse
- 1:14:03Speaker 7: Oh okay of that. So what you're saying hit zero
- 1:14:06Speaker 7: nerves with me. I feel like for women when they're
- 1:14:10Speaker 7: overweight or obese, it is, oh my god, are you okay?
- 1:14:13Speaker 7: You need to be doing this? This? Like what you know?
- 1:14:15Speaker 7: Get to the gym? What are you doing? Lots of questioning.
- 1:14:17Speaker 7: And then when they lose weight, which usually is due
- 1:14:19Speaker 7: to stress or what you know, something isn't healthy. You
- 1:14:23Speaker 7: look amazing.
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: Oh, they're complimented with being concerned.
- 1:14:26Speaker 7: Yeah, you look fabulous. So that experience so you had
- 1:14:29Speaker 7: on stage, I'm like, oh my god, you look so
- 1:14:31Speaker 7: good and you're like, actually, I've been like depressed, I
- 1:14:33Speaker 7: haven't een because I'm going through divorce whatever, like, and
- 1:14:36Speaker 7: they're like, you look great and you're like superya. I
- 1:14:40Speaker 7: would love to hear them put from others, but that
- 1:14:42Speaker 7: is an interesting woman's Yeah, but.
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: I haven't thought about on the show.
- 1:14:46Speaker 7: You're welcome. I'm done out by guys.
- 1:14:48Speaker 3: I've heard that before. It seemed weird for me to
- 1:14:50Speaker 3: bring it up there.
- 1:14:53Speaker 7: Thank you Jacob for letting me.
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: There's a lack of estrogen. Womfortable you say, but I.
- 1:14:59Speaker 7: Just had to say that. But I also want to say,
- 1:15:01Speaker 7: I hadn't really thought about it the other way for men,
- 1:15:03Speaker 7: Like you're right, men are almost seen as like oh well,
- 1:15:06Speaker 7: and being from the South, Jacob maybe can attest this.
- 1:15:08Speaker 7: The bigger the better. It's like, oh, you're a big
- 1:15:10Speaker 7: boy or or whatever, like you're a Burley. He's a man,
- 1:15:13Speaker 7: and like, I don't want my men smaller than me.
- 1:15:15Speaker 7: It's like a weird thing that there.
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: Can be that stick. I would ask you this though,
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: so like as in the lady culture, if if women
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: are chatting, which is what it's known, Yeah, the lady tour.
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: I don't know how that's what he was like when
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: he was out dating. Yeah, some place with some high lady.
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: I'm looking for some lady culture like cheetahs when I
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: when I go up to the bartender in my vlur
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: s and I'm like, excuse me, my man, any lady
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: culture going around these parts. Yeah.
- 1:15:50Speaker 8: Used to be a strip club in town called Club Paradise,
- 1:15:53Speaker 8: and all the strippers in there, they would all wear dresses.
- 1:15:56Speaker 3: That was due to the ladies.
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: I always order myself and apple Teeni's they know me
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: like that guy, something about that guy and his low skirts.
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: Who knows but in lady world, if if you if
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: please call it name culture, but I would, I would,
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: I would wonder. I'd be curious if if any person,
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: man or woman, or anybody tells a friend, uh of
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: any gender, Hey, I'm fasting or I'm taking medicines to
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: lose weight. I mean, I don't imagine that one hundred
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: percent time. It's just instantly celebrated. It's like, oh my god,
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: good for you. You're gonna look amazing. I imagine there's
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: a curiosity because if you tell your friend like, so,
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: I've really started going to the gym a lot more
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: and I'm cutting carbs, a lot of friends be like,
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: good for you, that's great. But if you look at
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: your friend and go, so I've started GLP ones with
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: the assistance of my doctor, and I'm starting to fast
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: two days a week. And I imagine there's some stigma
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: around those things that the be like, oh my god,
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: are you sure? Like if you tried to, like, wouldn't
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: you get second guests a little bit?
- 1:16:53Speaker 7: I feel my opinion is that the GLP ones are
- 1:16:56Speaker 7: falling in the same category as a weight loss surgery
- 1:17:02Speaker 7: used to fall in. It was seen as like a cheat.
- 1:17:05Speaker 7: I think people that respond in that way are personal.
- 1:17:09Speaker 7: It's them problem the person commenting. I'm thinking, like, well
- 1:17:14Speaker 7: you get to use that, and like, I don't you
- 1:17:16Speaker 7: know what I mean. It's like a very internal I'm
- 1:17:18Speaker 7: really diving into all that they're in assuming. But that's
- 1:17:21Speaker 7: my opinion on it.
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: You do see it though.
- 1:17:25Speaker 8: It is kind of.
- 1:17:26Speaker 7: Funny you're you're mentioning this. I feel that a lot
- 1:17:29Speaker 7: of people in my circle at least or that I
- 1:17:31Speaker 7: know friends of friends. Uh, fasting is talked about and
- 1:17:34Speaker 7: not criticized.
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: Okay, It's gotten a lot more acceptable, I think, especially
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: intermittent fasting.
- 1:17:40Speaker 7: The intermittent fasting.
- 1:17:41Speaker 8: Is if you start talking about like the like the
- 1:17:43Speaker 8: forty day fasts and fifty day fasts and things like.
- 1:17:46Speaker 7: That conversation or I guess it might depend on what
- 1:17:50Speaker 7: state you're in, because like I know men that live
- 1:17:52Speaker 7: in California and they'll do like a three day fast,
- 1:17:54Speaker 7: a five days fast. Their dad does that. Like for
- 1:17:57Speaker 7: men culture, it's like kind of normalized and maybe almost
- 1:18:02Speaker 7: the reverse is.
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: Especially man's society.
- 1:18:04Speaker 7: Okay, manciety man's society like anxiety Okay, but yeah, it's
- 1:18:09Speaker 7: like the opposite. Maybe intermittent fasting seem like weaker than
- 1:18:13Speaker 7: all right, I'm a bad I could go three days
- 1:18:15Speaker 7: without eating.
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, it depends on the culture for sure.
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: Again there's microcultures as well. But I do find it
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: fascinating that, like, I do think that this is one
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: of those things in health and likes very instimantly personal.
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: It's very much our realities, and like, I think there's
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: a lot of fear whether you're taking GLP ones or
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: you're trying something big like fasting or getting bariatric surgery.
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: It's so interesting how important it is to you and
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: how I think there could be a lot of hesitation
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: to share it with friends, because you don't know if
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: somebody's gonna be like, oh, really you're doing that, what
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: have you tried X, Y and Z, like, and there's
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: gonna be the unsolicited advice.
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: That would be very difficult because it's like you're already
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: going through a lot, You're you're taking on this huge
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: challenge and all you really want.
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: Is a little support, yeah, and then good for you.
- 1:19:01Speaker 2: Yeah, and then just to just to be like, oh,
- 1:19:04Speaker 2: that's not how you do it.
- 1:19:05Speaker 7: There's always I was going to say that next, like
- 1:19:07Speaker 7: with with diet and exercise and like weight, you know, areas,
- 1:19:12Speaker 7: like everyone has something to say it's right, and again
- 1:19:15Speaker 7: maybe I'm just going into what I know from like
- 1:19:18Speaker 7: a woman's perspective, it's like, oh, lose weight and you
- 1:19:21Speaker 7: look amazing. Lose too much weight, You're too skinny and unhealthy.
- 1:19:24Speaker 7: So if you do go too far into the fitness world,
- 1:19:26Speaker 7: even if it's fit like you're trying to do a
- 1:19:29Speaker 7: show or whatever, like a fitness whatever, then they're like, well,
- 1:19:33Speaker 7: that's not healthy and it's not that's not sustainable, like
- 1:19:35Speaker 7: literally science shows that, but it's for a short time
- 1:19:38Speaker 7: to accomplish something. And then I'm going to shift like this,
- 1:19:41Speaker 7: I'm not saying everyone should do this. I'm saying I
- 1:19:43Speaker 7: want to do this right now. Like's not enough support
- 1:19:46Speaker 7: for like what do you want to do with your body?
- 1:19:48Speaker 7: And I'm going to criticize it.
- 1:19:50Speaker 2: It is the unsolicited swing advice of fitness. Yeah, to
- 1:19:56Speaker 2: bring a full circle. Yeah, yeah, it's so now you
- 1:20:01Speaker 2: guys know what it's like.
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: Well, but even that point, like you literally professionally work
- 1:20:06Speaker 1: in in this form of the world, right like in fitness,
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: in people's bodies and working with them, and I think
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: that also gives you a lot of pause and deference
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: not to just mouth the funk off in any random ass.
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: It is why I don't have an Instagram account.
- 1:20:19Speaker 7: Yeah, my gosh, I account. I'm going to do it.
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: You come to me for advice to give it otherwise
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: I do not want to, and I think I know
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: him at some point. Honestly, it's the only way it's
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: going to get done. I don't starting it. I'm not
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: going to stop a couple of years. I mostly use
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: it for my al Qaeda dealing. Yeah, the opium market.
- 1:20:51Speaker 3: My tag name on the dark web is tangent.
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: That's right. No, But this is a really good point. Like,
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: it's interesting because I think that people that know better,
- 1:20:59Speaker 1: that that have a nuanced view of these things, have
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: training in it. You'll notice they don't mouth off about
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: it as much. And so if you come to them
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: and you just like you ask for advice, sure they'll
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: weigh in. But it's gonna be in this nuanced, like
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: balanced kind of like here's three ideas and two on
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: the other side kind of thing. But then every jackass
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: with two thumbs feels like they want to tell you
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: all the fuck about this thing, and it is really
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: fucking annoying. Like whether you're talking about GLPS or fasting
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: or any kind of weight loss move, you'll tell people
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: like oh, like, oh god, whenever I made the mistake
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: early in my journey of like opening up about that
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: to some people and being like, oh, you know, I'm
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: doing this, and immediately the very first thing you get
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: is like, well, you're going to gain it all back,
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: you know that? Right? Yeah? It's like, Hey, I just
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: want to thank you. I just want to thank you
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: that I'm trying to do something in obedience with my
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: doctor to address a very significant health care problem. And
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: I just really want to thank you for reminding me
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: how fucking pointless it is. And then I'm just gonna
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: die of fat bastard. Yeah, thanks a lot of asking.
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: I'll imagine if we did that for.
- 1:21:54Speaker 3: Matt, tons of fun.
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: As soon as you get off the Mets, you're gonna
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: be was tital again. You know that?
- 1:22:01Speaker 10: Right?
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't do it. Can I borrow your gun?
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: Like I we don't do that with other candet I
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: hope we don't, but like it's so crazy, like just
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: go get cancer again, you know it? Just come back?
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: Oh great, throw myself into traffic. Now, I really appreciate
- 1:22:20Speaker 1: this feedback.
- 1:22:21Speaker 3: Best case scenario. It seems rude.
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: Oh my god, yeah, I remember the person who said that.
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: I just want to be like, great, can I finish
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: your sandwich? You're gonna with that, Like, let's go back
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: to this now. It's just it is really really ridiculous,
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: which Dan, you know you didn't say anything about, but
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: I just wanted to comment on because I do think
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: that that's hand in hand with this conversation which I
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: think on you know, the the GLP ones. I'm glad
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: that you thought about it in the last episode. Nick
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: I didn't at all. And I just want to clarify
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: because Dan brings up this point of like, hey, y'all
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: were talking about like that internal uh, you know, metabolic
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: psychiatry thing, and I kind of got this whiff that
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: maybe that was sort of like a passive aggressive shove
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: towards JLP ones, toward weight loss medications that you can
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: just do it all internally. And so Dan, I'm really
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: glad you give me an opportunity to clarify that in
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: zero percent ways that I mean that that the topic
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: of metabolic psychiatric came up later on in the show,
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: I think just because we started going off on a
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: tangent about how interesting we think that is. But I
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: don't see those things as that didn't I didn't mean
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: that at all. Like I see medicine, All medicine is welcome.
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: GLP ones have a role. I think that's great. I
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: think that there are also some interesting new advances in
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: mental health very specifically and how things like exercise and
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: stuff help. And that's full stop on that. I have
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: no other opinions on, Like you should just do it
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: organically roof of the book.
- 1:23:41Speaker 8: Like said earlier, like we weren't giving weight loss advice
- 1:23:45Speaker 8: and we were talking about kind of the mental side
- 1:23:47Speaker 8: of of.
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: Right, the anguish of it, Yeah, the realities of it,
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: just trying to give those those tips.
- 1:23:55Speaker 7: And there's two options. There's mental fit with no space
- 1:23:59Speaker 7: but capital M Capital F Underscore l.
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: V Mental Underscore LV.
- 1:24:05Speaker 7: Okay, okay, are you are you approving this message?
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: What's the option?
- 1:24:08Speaker 7: I don't know what else do you want? Is there
- 1:24:10Speaker 7: a different option? I can try it because it'll tell if.
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: It's taking everything everything I have? Is mental fit Personal
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: training p T mental fit or mental fit p E
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: N one s you can find that. I feel like
- 1:24:25Speaker 1: that is also a really good options.
- 1:24:27Speaker 7: Mental fit underscore PT, this.
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: Is your moment, no underscore do we not need we
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: don't have the underscore? Can you just do that? Can
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: mental fit PT? That will be no spaces if you
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: can get it. You don't want the underscore, but that's okay,
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: nobody wants that.
- 1:24:43Speaker 7: One's available to me.
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: Just take one space PT, no space.
- 1:24:48Speaker 7: One word under PT.
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: Are we doing this? We should? We're doing it. I
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: think I literally present this to my class and they
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: were like, what's your Instagram? Does that look like that?
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: Like that? Don't let her get it because M and
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: F is Sam Jackson's I don't know.
- 1:25:13Speaker 7: Does that look visually appealing? Mental?
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: Yeah? I think again, the pen fifteen I thought was
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: a better idea.
- 1:25:19Speaker 7: So it doesn't look like Pitt.
- 1:25:28Speaker 1: Do that. That's what I want to say.
- 1:25:31Speaker 2: I know a podcast that once once bought white privilege.
- 1:25:37Speaker 8: Oh white member of the podcast did that specifically, that is,
- 1:25:43Speaker 8: and he is not here to defend himself anyway.
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: Dan, I really appreciate the letter, and of course we
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: we love you man. We really appreciate your support, and
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: of course we want to celebrate you know that you
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: are working on this, and again we also want to
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: be careful to like glory rorify weight loss as this
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: all people all the time kind of mentality. These questions
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: we've gotten this letter that we've gotten are from individuals
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: who are on that journey, who are trying to do
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: that that meets their personal goals, it meets their relationship
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: with their doctor privately, and they've decided to share that
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: with our show, and therefore we are sharing it with
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: the audience. But I want to be careful because some
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: people in the past have heard us talk about weight loss,
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: and we've gotten some letters years ago from folks that
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: have said, you know, it hurts my heart that you
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: guys always talk about how good it is to lose weight,
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: and like, I've had to get to a place in
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: my life where I've I've had to accept myself for
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: who I am and I'm not on a weight loss journey,
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: and it hurts that you guys are always pushing that,
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: and I wish you wouldn't because that makes you, as therapists,
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: not seem as accepting and kind as I would like
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: to imagine that you are. And so this gives me
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: an opportunity to reflect on that too, and just kind
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: of signal that back to the audience to say, Hey,
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: if you're out there and you're not undergoing a weight
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: loss journey, that is not your truth, that is not
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: something you desire, something you are seeking. I please do
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: not hear this answer or the last episode and hear
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: that as banging the drum for everybody ought to do
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: this and even me personally, just a random asshole who
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: happens those podcasts sharing his personal journey very reluctantly. I've
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: been doing this for a very long time, only now
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: opening up about it. It was relevant to a question.
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: That is all. I am not trying to get you
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: to do anything about your your stuff or your life.
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: Please live your truth, whatever that is.
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: I would come alongside that one hundred percent and just
- 1:27:25Speaker 2: echo and repeat that.
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: Over and over again. Yeah. I would much rather all
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: of our listeners be happy than fit, right, Yeah, and
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: healthy whatever that is for.
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, that's that's way more important to me, is
- 1:27:36Speaker 2: you know, just mental well being than.
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: Right than we're a mental health show. Yeah, yeah, exactly,
- 1:27:41Speaker 1: which is important to us because you know, and this
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: is something I know that you've brought in the past too,
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: coming from like the fitness world. Is that just because
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: you have knowledge about fitness and you often give that
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: advice and you talk about it, some people take that
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: as aggressive, and it's like, I don't mean that.
- 1:27:55Speaker 7: I'm just I'm answering a question like aggressively.
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: Aggressively, Yeah, Whitney, make my password password?
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: O ye forget yeah or maga maga one.
- 1:28:04Speaker 7: That's your email addressing. I don't want mine a touch too.
