• 0:13
  Speaker 2: just follow up on wrecking on my son's scooter yes day.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: And it's not an electric scooter. It's a little push
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: kind Is there.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: A name for that? You just call him a scooter scooter?
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: There's a brand brand, But yeah, he's got it. He's
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: got a fancy one. Then he does trecks with at
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: the skateboard park and he's really good on everything like that.
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: AnyWho, the skateboarders and the scooter people get a get along.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, good. It's a lesson for all of us,
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: isn't it. Yeah.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: The the bike crowd not not always. People are going
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: down on the bowl and their bikes and coming out
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: and doing flips or spins. Any who, I was riding
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: my son's scooter back he took off with his friends.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: I was riding it back and I was on this
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: really crappy bike trail that had a lot of grooves
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: in it, and my front wheel got stuck in a
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: groove and I flipped over the bars and landed. My
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: knee went down hard and I bloodied knee. But I
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: was thinking about because it just rattled my brain. I
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: mean just jarred my brain. I had an instant headache
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: for a very long time. What happens to you when
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: your age? Because when you're a kid, even when you're
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: twenty five, you hit the ground like that, nothing, it
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: has no effect on you whatsoever. Does the amount of
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: juice around your brain go away?
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Juice?
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: I don't believe that's the technical term brain juice, but
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: you know, is this.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Something that protects your brain goes away with age? Because
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: it just rocked my brain. It's just like, oh my god,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the pain of that. And I know because I used
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: to wreck a lot doing things when I was younger.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: You felt nothing, not in the brain anyway, maybe your
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: elbow or your knee, but not your brain.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: I talked about that years ago the last time I
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: fell ice skating, because they used to love to ice skate.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: But I went skating and I was trying to do
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: something fancy from back in my hockey days. Entangled by
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: skates up and ended up falling and like hitting my
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: head on the ice, and the immediate sensation was that
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: was different. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, because I've hit my
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: head on the ice so many times, That's why I
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: got this twitch. But uh yeah, it was absolutely different.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: My brain wasn't nearly as juicy as it used to be.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: There's got to be a cushion around your brain that
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Joe's that like, there's less of it when you get
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: older or something.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I was going to do a little research on that,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: because something's going on there.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Wow.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: And if that's what it feels like, now, what's it
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: feel like when you fall on your eighty five? I
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: can't imagine.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Oh, try not to, try real hard not to.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I probably won't scooter as much then, But I don't know.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I like doing that sort of stuff.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: My wife was riding her bike.
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: We were riding bikes together, and she did a turn
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: and hit an uneven spot that kind of stopped or
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: tire and she went down bruised or spleen as I
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: recall it was. It was very close to a very
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: very serious injury, all right. But yeah, and that was
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: at super low speed. But it's a crack in the pavement. Yikes.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Okay, Katie, what's to do?
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: So?
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: I was out Friday for a somewhat urgent medical thing
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: while all your countries at war, you did not show
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: up to work.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Go on.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I know, I know.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: I had to do the gestational diabetes test, which is
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: they have an one hour and a three hour. I
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: took the one hour a couple of weeks ago, and
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: I just failed the shit out of it. That was
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: what the doctor wrote on my chart afterwards. So they
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: had me do the three hour, which I had to
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: fast for twelve hours, and then I go into the doctor.
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: They drop my blood and they give me this drink
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: that is just awful. It tasted like really thick flat sprite.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, and it has one hundred I think it's
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: like one hundred milliliters a glucose senat or so it's
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: just straight sugar. And then when flat straight more than
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: it was, it was surupy. Oh gosh. So you drink
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: that and then uh, they take your blood three more
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: times on the hour ran afterwards, and so I went
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: in and I am not good with getting my blood drawn.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: I It's like I I'd always let them know. I
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: have to be in one of the chairs that will
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: let me lean back across.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: There's a chance I'm gonna go down. I haven't for many,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: many years, but there's a chance, which.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Is weird because I don't know. It's not the pain.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: No, it's no, it's not no, it's it's deep instinctive
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: and I don't want to talk about it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I see, I knew I was going to get you.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: But this I always try to get myself through it
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: by convinced myself it's not the pain. What I did
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: wrecking my scooter hurt a million times more. Oh, I'm sure,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: then get my blood take in and I don't worry
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: But so I was going into this thinking, Okay, they're
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: going to do like an ivy line and then they'll
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: just take the blood from that.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: I'd assumed that was the case.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: So there's one Jabin.
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: No, that was a full of jabins, oh nobs for
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: the same arm in the But you know what, kudos
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: to the phlebotomists. I had four different ones, no, three
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: different ones. They all nailed it the first time.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Oh lord, this is the worst podcast ever.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: I know, isn't It isn't awful, But four in the
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: same arm even.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: During a wait a minute, in no kidding, Even during
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: all my cancer treatment, I never got jabbed four times
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: in one day.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they like jabbing. You tell the truth
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Cheney Cheney's Medical Center.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: Possibly, Yeah, I think after the third one, I had said,
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: you jabbed me again, back exactly.
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: So they do the first one. That was what it
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: was like. It was like the first one, baseline. Wait
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: an hour, They do it again, rent and repeat three
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: more times.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: I would have asked, why didn't you just put a
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: needle in my because I've had it done that way before,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: where they got to do a bunch of stuff. They
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: didn't put it in the top of your hand, and
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: then they just get what they got to get when
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: they got to get it.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: I hope people aren't crashing their cars listening to this.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: So is this a special thing you had to do
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: because of your metabolism or medical history or is it
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: fairly common?
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: No, it's like it's probably probably that option.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: No, it's try to be nicer. Huh.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know if this is a new thing, because
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not that up on it.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: But all of my friends said, oh, yeah, you have
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: to do it, and they'll give you that one hour
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: one which hopefully you pass.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: But if you failed, the ship out of.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: It, right, like I did I go big or go home? Yeah?
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: So I passed all four though, which is also I
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: don't understand. So how did I fail the absolute hell
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: out of the first one and then have four done
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: and I'm fine? Yeah, but no gestational diabetes? And I
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: just wanted to say how much I much would have
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: rathered in so many ways been here and just been
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: doing the show.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: Guys.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: Was this a licensed medical center or somebody's garage? Yeah?
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: Did you go to Mexico to save money?
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: I thought that having to go in like a back
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: gate was a weird yeah set up, you know, I
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: know it was a problem.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: When the nurse said the doctor will be in in
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: a moment, yeah, rare quotes. Yeah that wait, what did
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: you just do? Oh?

• 7:45
  Speaker 5: early nineties. But he's sitting in the waiting room and
