Speaker:this is from Jamie from Fairbanks
Speaker:Alaska oh my God
Speaker:and very original and his question is
Speaker:well what worries me
Speaker:so what I feel like you probably know a lot of this
Speaker:but one of the fears I have
Speaker:and this is a common fear in men
Speaker:I am telling you
Speaker:I have heard more men
Speaker:talk about this than any other kind of condition
Speaker:what it is uh
Speaker:it's having to pee all the time oh
Speaker:did you not
Speaker:you didn't know that that word
Speaker:I didn't think that was the one that
Speaker:you were gonna hit me with the one okay
Speaker:so what's the question
Speaker:well the question is
Speaker:the question kind of goes to like
Speaker:am I gonna die
Speaker:what's wrong with me
Speaker:because like I have this thing happen where sometimes
Speaker:this happened with you once
Speaker:it was super embarrassing
Speaker:but like I've been on an airplane where I pee I go pee
Speaker:and I sit back down and immediately have to pee
Speaker:immediately have to pee again and one time with you
Speaker:I guess it's kind of a funny story
Speaker:but one time with you
Speaker:I was in the car with you
Speaker:and I said wow
Speaker:I really have to go
Speaker:and for me to even say to you
Speaker:is there any way we could pull over
Speaker:and go to the bathroom
Speaker:that kind of took a lot for me
Speaker:we hadn't been dating that long
Speaker:and I said could you
Speaker:and you go yeah
Speaker:and we go somewhere and go to the bathroom
Speaker:I get back in the car
Speaker:I immediately
Speaker:have to go to the bathroom again
Speaker:and then it becomes urgent
Speaker:and I'm like
Speaker:what in the fuck is going
Speaker:I just went to the bathroom
Speaker:and so I said you
Speaker:I'm really sorry
Speaker:like I just gotta
Speaker:I gotta like pee again
Speaker:and I remember that was
Speaker:you looked at me and you were were no
Speaker:I thought there might be a joke like oh
Speaker:you gotta pee all the time
Speaker:and you looked at me and you look concerned
Speaker:well as sarcastic as I am with stuff like that
Speaker:I go back to the doctor brain
Speaker:so I've worried about all the stuff that could be
Speaker:contributing to why you were having that symptomatology
Speaker:yeah and it was and it was
Speaker:it was right away
Speaker:like it was
Speaker:I peed and then sat down
Speaker:had to pee again
Speaker:and I remember
Speaker:I remember looking at you
Speaker:and that almost made me a little worried
Speaker:because you were
Speaker:I could tell like there was some concern like oh
Speaker:shit is this
Speaker:and so I think guys think they always think like oh
Speaker:it's the it's the prostate
Speaker:is that is that my first thing that I
Speaker:want to check out if I have to pee all the time
Speaker:I don't know why men think that their prostate is like
Speaker:God's gift to the earth
Speaker:slash the first thing that's gonna kill them
Speaker:and it matters more than any other organ in their body
Speaker:like you have one heart
Speaker:you have one liver
Speaker:you have one pancreas Jesus
Speaker:why why do you have to have a prostate
Speaker:that's the biggest concern
Speaker:the reason it bothers me is because
Speaker:you find this from a lot of men come in
Speaker:and it's always like yeah
Speaker:because they're concerned about like
Speaker:how it's gonna affect their sex life or
Speaker:or it's gonna make
Speaker:in all honesty
Speaker:this is what bothers me
Speaker:I think that they worry they will be less manly
Speaker:without it so I gotta stop you for a second
Speaker:as a person that's trying to to follow
Speaker:I misunderstood when you first start talking
Speaker:and I thought you were saying
Speaker:I immediately went prostate
Speaker:prostate cancer
Speaker:I have to peel out of my prostate cancer
Speaker:but then I think you're going to
Speaker:you're going to set like a sexual
Speaker:having a sexual problem
Speaker:is that also related to
Speaker:like stamina or erections or something like that
Speaker:or you're saying it really
Speaker:I mean in on
Speaker:well in honesty
Speaker:it's not like
Speaker:if you remove a prostate
Speaker:you can have sex
Speaker:you can remove a prostate
Speaker:all the time
Speaker:it's called a turp
Speaker:trans urethra
Speaker:or section of the prostate to URP
Speaker:and they go through the urethra
Speaker:that's gonna make you cringe
Speaker:that's the way I would go
Speaker:unless it was traffic
Speaker:I'm so glad that we weren't dating in residency
Speaker:I would have fucking failed so anyway
Speaker:you're a process all the time
Speaker:you don't need it
Speaker:I didn't know you could just not have a prosthetic
Speaker:it's a non essential organ
Speaker:what why it was like your appendix
Speaker:you don't have to have it
Speaker:you don't need it
Speaker:gallbladder
Speaker:bye nipples
Speaker:male nipples
Speaker:male nipples are just like Christmas tree ornaments
Speaker:nobody needs them
Speaker:fascinating
Speaker:I had no idea that you didn't need a prostate
Speaker:but so so it basically helps with
Speaker:I'm I'm gonna just like keep it very simple
Speaker:yeah for me
Speaker:you have a lot of different organs
Speaker:that help with secretions to balance out the pH
Speaker:so that sperm can survive in the vagina
Speaker:to make you more fertile
Speaker:yeah what sorry
Speaker:I just why was that
Speaker:that was one of those things where
Speaker:my primal brain made that noise
Speaker:like retroactive jealousy again
Speaker:you are proving my point okay
Speaker:I'm sincerely sorry
Speaker:I'll let you continue
Speaker:you distracted you
Speaker:you were saying
Speaker:yeah I know
Speaker:but I'm still like seeing you fist pump over
Speaker:fucking having
Speaker:sperm maturation and successful
Speaker:motility okay
Speaker:so I go ahead
Speaker:redirect me because now I am completely lost on you
Speaker:okay so well
Speaker:I guess what you can remove a prostate
Speaker:you can remove a prostate
Speaker:you won't die and it won't affect your sex life
Speaker:it won't eject technically less or more or different
Speaker:or have a bad orgasm in general
Speaker:when you have that removed
Speaker:you're fine
Speaker:but what I don't like
Speaker:no man has has ever man well yes I have okay
Speaker:sorry but I did have a better
Speaker:I did have a better orgasm once no
Speaker:it's like if you orgasm
Speaker:and then you get interrupted or something yeah
Speaker:that's the worst
Speaker:that's different though
Speaker:waste of an orgasm and there's a guy same
Speaker:I'll meet you here tomorrow
Speaker:that's what you have to say well
Speaker:it's the same thing with women no
Speaker:I mean you could say in 10 minutes
Speaker:I'll try this again
Speaker:two minutes
Speaker:but that's what I mean by the
Speaker:that's fair
Speaker:well anyway
Speaker:the point is
Speaker:what I don't like is I feel like
Speaker:a lot of men are worried about their prostate
Speaker:because they think it will make them less masculine
Speaker:if they lose it or they have issues with it
Speaker:so they don't tell me that they're having symptoms
Speaker:because they're scared
Speaker:which if we caught early
Speaker:we could fix repair
Speaker:before anything spreads or changes into something worse
Speaker:but society making them feel
Speaker:not masculine enough because they're losing an organ
Speaker:that really doesn't make a huge difference
Speaker:especially for their female partners
Speaker:I'll be completely honest with you
Speaker:when I said prostate
Speaker:I've never even heard of a prostate being
Speaker:related to anything
Speaker:like being less manly
Speaker:I had only heard I might pee a lot
Speaker:if I let someone look at it
Speaker:I might have cancer
Speaker:I never thought of it as like a
Speaker:uh like something to do
Speaker:I didn't I didn't know that uh
Speaker:well because you brought up the peeing
Speaker:so your prostate
Speaker:if it's enlarged
Speaker:so BPH benign personic hypertrophy
Speaker:essentially
Speaker:or hyper hypoplasia
Speaker:so it just gets bigger
Speaker:it swells it compresses on your organs
Speaker:and it makes it hard to pee
Speaker:so is that you have retention
Speaker:right so you
Speaker:you pee a little bit
Speaker:but you pee a lot
Speaker:so when you say you pee often
Speaker:you mean you pee a little bit
Speaker:but you pee a lot oh sorry
Speaker:a little amount gotcha
Speaker:a frequent duration
Speaker:uh because you're pushing
Speaker:pushing pushing
Speaker:yeah and also the frequency in general
Speaker:you pee every hour
Speaker:cause you can't get it out
Speaker:you still feel like after you peed
Speaker:you have to pee again
Speaker:every hour I wish
Speaker:yeah sorry I
Speaker:I really did a bad job explaining that
Speaker:no you didn't
Speaker:I knew it I knew exactly what you meant
Speaker:I just wanted to
Speaker:to clarify you did a great job
Speaker:so are you saying
Speaker:maybe if I gotta pee all the time
Speaker:this thing's pushing on that thing
Speaker:it's annoying
Speaker:but I don't have cancer necessarily
Speaker:but shouldn't I probably go get a little uh
Speaker:get a little prostate exam
Speaker:well there's a lot of other things that can cause
Speaker:urinary frequency
Speaker:and the first thing
Speaker:I thought it was diabetes mellitus
Speaker:or diabetes incipitus
Speaker:with me yeah
Speaker:you have a great diet
Speaker:but you could still have diabetes
Speaker:it basically pulls all the sugar
Speaker:it can go glucose urea
Speaker:so you get sugar in your pee
Speaker:crazy as that is
Speaker:and you pee a lot more
Speaker:so whenever I have someone come in and say
Speaker:I'm peeing a lot more than I should
Speaker:the first thing I check is a sugar test
Speaker:to see if they have diabetes
Speaker:if it's a man
Speaker:then I automatically
Speaker:that same visit
Speaker:will evaluate their prostate
Speaker:there's a few other things too
Speaker:um but yeah
Speaker:I mean you have to roll out the scary stuff first right
Speaker:yeah you know
Speaker:it's funny what
Speaker:so that day I
Speaker:I am I mean
Speaker:there was nowhere to use the restroom
Speaker:and we were not in a good spot to stop
Speaker:what are you talking about
Speaker:yeah I have to go back to the end of the story
Speaker:which is and I go I go
Speaker:I can't I'm sorry
Speaker:I'm just gonna be honest
Speaker:we're very honest with each other
Speaker:but this was one of those
Speaker:I did just say I don't get embarrassed very easily
Speaker:I was embarrassed at this time
Speaker:nothing about it
Speaker:and I said I'm really sorry
Speaker:could you pull over I gotta go
Speaker:and you actually drop me off in the middle of traffic
Speaker:there's nowhere to park
Speaker:I jumped out of your car
Speaker:I don't even know where you went
Speaker:you were a man in need
Speaker:I wanted to help you
Speaker:and you did
Speaker:and I found a place and I
Speaker:I think I bought something from a store
Speaker:to the restaurants
Speaker:when we go to the bathroom
Speaker:it was hard to find one
Speaker:I finally went
Speaker:it was great
Speaker:I get back in the car
Speaker:I called you
Speaker:and you picked me up on the street
Speaker:and I got in the car
Speaker:and we started talking about what you just said
Speaker:like you go hey
Speaker:I'll stop as many times as you want
Speaker:but like we should
Speaker:you should have this checked out
Speaker:like this is
Speaker:this could be this or this whatever
Speaker:and then I go oh my God
Speaker:and you're like when I go
Speaker:I just realized something
Speaker:we left the house
Speaker:and we stopped at this coffee shop
Speaker:and I ordered
Speaker:I ordered a Red Eye
Speaker:which is called Different Things in different places
Speaker:in Alaska it's called the shot in the dark
Speaker:it can be called the Lead Pusher
Speaker:it can be called the Red Eye
Speaker:it can be called the Black Eye
Speaker:it is a large coffee with two shots of espresso in it
Speaker:it's the strongest drink at a coffee shop
Speaker:there's no stronger drink and I got one
Speaker:and then what happened was
Speaker:you were going to work or somewhere and I said oh
Speaker:could you drop me off at this bookstore
Speaker:I'm gonna do some work at this coffee shop
Speaker:and I went to the coffee shop I forgot
Speaker:I forgot that I just drank that coffee in the car
Speaker:on the way to the coffee shop forgot
Speaker:just went into like habit programming mode
Speaker:and I walked in and I said
Speaker:can I please have a red eye
Speaker:I drank it had to be 800 mg of caffeine
Speaker:in more in more in like yeah
Speaker:maybe maybe a thousand in like
Speaker:it was two shots in a giant cup well
Speaker:and caffeine is a natural diuretic
Speaker:so you were out of
Speaker:I was unfortunate game right there
Speaker:and I forgot
Speaker:I legitimately forgot
Speaker:and I remember when I told you that you were like oh
Speaker:that's what we all we all feel better
Speaker:I remember you were like
Speaker:I'm excited that you're healthy
Speaker:but you're fucking stupid well
Speaker:because that also has cardiac comorbidity association
Speaker:so after I realized that you weren't gonna like
Speaker:have diabetes
Speaker:most likely
Speaker:we want to go home yeah
Speaker:but then that's the problem with dating a doctor though
Speaker:I always think of like a million possibilities
Speaker:I know I guess you're kinda lucky though
Speaker:cause you don't have to worry about him
Speaker:I'll catch him if it's scary
Speaker:and you can just be like
Speaker:living happily
Speaker:and I'll be like
Speaker:oh shit you're gonna die yeah
Speaker:it is funny
Speaker:how many uh
Speaker:how many things
Speaker:like I said to you
Speaker:this just goes to like
Speaker:what are things
Speaker:we could discuss this on a future episode
Speaker:I don't know
Speaker:I I always go towards guys my age
Speaker:but I think it makes sense to
Speaker:to talk about it for everybody
Speaker:but when I asked you
Speaker:it's just funny that the things we text each other
Speaker:like it'll be like boyfriend
Speaker:girlfriend stuff like oh
Speaker:I miss you oh hey
Speaker:I miss you at this tea place we go to
Speaker:and then you'll be like
Speaker:you should have the
Speaker:the following blood work test done
Speaker:and I'll be like
Speaker:this gigantic list of like blood work
Speaker:is that a good thing or a bad thing
Speaker:I think it's a really great thing
Speaker:I think it's very caring
Speaker:and I also think
Speaker:I'm your typical guy
Speaker:that doesn't wanna get anything done
Speaker:because I am scared
Speaker:I'm a I've had questions to ask you
Speaker:in the last hour that I've not asked you
Speaker:because I don't wanna know alright
Speaker:how many times a day do you think you should pee
Speaker:should I why not
Speaker:you probably want to know that one oh
Speaker:how many times a day
Speaker:should a guy
Speaker:and and say
Speaker:we're taking ages
Speaker:I don't know
Speaker:you just said
Speaker:you're a typical guy
Speaker:and I'm scared to ask questions
Speaker:you should talk about peeing too much okay
Speaker:in 24 hours
Speaker:how many times do you think is normal
Speaker:I think to pee
Speaker:I would say
Speaker:normal is 3 to 5
Speaker:I think I pee
Speaker:15 to 20 wow
Speaker:the decent spread okay
Speaker:7 to 8 7 to 8
Speaker:I'm way above that
Speaker:but I'm also caffeinating
Speaker:quite a bit
Speaker:and hydrating
Speaker:you're also hydrating
Speaker:that's I think the key
Speaker:that study is coming from a
Speaker:massive population
Speaker:of people who probably are under hydrated okay
Speaker:so 7 eight times 7 eight
Speaker:goal is what
Speaker:color of pee
Speaker:how about that one
Speaker:oh I love that oh
Speaker:I was gonna say whoops
Speaker:I'm so sorry
Speaker:I was just knocked over
Speaker:all the waters
Speaker:I love this question because
Speaker:you know back in my
Speaker:maybe notice
Speaker:we both have water on the table
Speaker:by the way we do
Speaker:and I already have to pee
Speaker:so do I I've had to pee
Speaker:this whole time
Speaker:whenever I do
Speaker:I do a joke on stage about having to pee
Speaker:and I've had more than one man come up me
Speaker:after the show and say
Speaker:can you should do that joke at the
Speaker:end of your set
Speaker:because you opened with an eye to pee the
Speaker:entire time
Speaker:and so I've started to do that
Speaker:but you said
Speaker:color of pee
Speaker:and the reason I like this was I've
Speaker:I've at certain points in my life
Speaker:taking tons of vitamins
Speaker:like when I was
Speaker:a bodybuilder long
Speaker:many many years
Speaker:before I met you
Speaker:my pee would be just
Speaker:vibrantly yellow
Speaker:and it always made me feel really good
Speaker:and then I remember
Speaker:we used to hydrate a lot
Speaker:especially on like
Speaker:a contest week
Speaker:and that that would be
Speaker:it would look like water
Speaker:mm hmm like
Speaker:I remember just like
Speaker:just straight up
Speaker:straight up clear
Speaker:I would guess
Speaker:the more dark it is
Speaker:the more I gotta worry about something
Speaker:that's absolutely correct

Speaker:you're an adult man
Speaker:why are you peeing the bed
Speaker:I never pissed myself when I was drunk
Speaker:but you're but you also are normal

Speaker:you're the best drinker I've ever met
Speaker:where you can have a couple of drink
Speaker:just now you're like
Speaker:should I have a white claws
Speaker:like oh my God
Speaker:if I did that back in the day
Speaker:we would be deciding to drink today

Speaker:and then work the rest of night
Speaker:be a mom not have another one
Speaker:maybe have one at night
Speaker:you're a very moderate drinker

Speaker:I know a lot of people
Speaker:that sort of have the kind of issue I have with you
Speaker:which is like
Speaker:I don't want
Speaker:yeah I'm friends with a lot of babies great
Speaker:so I looking at you so differently now
Speaker:I'm so sorry
Speaker:I shouldn't have said that but I
Speaker:it's it was um
Speaker:what in the fuck
Speaker:I wanna go back to this
Speaker:did you ever have a date over
Speaker:and you peed the bed next to her
Speaker:and you had to cover it up
Speaker:no absolutely not
Speaker:are you sure about that
Speaker:yes absolutely not
Speaker:or did you wake up and she was gone
Speaker:you're like
Speaker:oh thank God
Speaker:I dodged a bullet
Speaker:she didn't dodge the bullet
Speaker:she dodged no people
Speaker:it happened and she ran away
Speaker:I don't think it ever happened
Speaker:you peed on a girl
Speaker:I don't think so
Speaker:I'm looking at
Speaker:I don't know that you totally did
Speaker:serious question
Speaker:would you rather find out
Speaker:would you rather find out right now
Speaker:that I drank too much
Speaker:and peed the bed and peed on a girl and she was upset
Speaker:or that I'm a very moderate drinker
Speaker:but a girl asked me to pee on her
Speaker:and you and I peed on a girl
Speaker:which would you rather
Speaker:oh wow they're both fucked up
Speaker:I would I would go with the second one
Speaker:because you made the choice
Speaker:and I think it's disgusting
Speaker:so the second one sucks
Speaker:I like it God thank you
Speaker:but the first one is like really infantile
Speaker:like get your shit together
Speaker:I quit drinking there
Speaker:because you didn't want to piss on yourself anymore
Speaker:amongst other things
Speaker:well that seems to be now top of the list
Speaker:so other than that
Speaker:I don't get up in the middle of the night
Speaker:and why are you looking at me like
Speaker:you're looking at me like you want me to turn off the
Speaker:I have white sheets
Speaker:why do you think I don't drink anymore
Speaker:it was a couple of times
Speaker:I have drank way more than I needed to
Speaker:and I've never peed myself oh
Speaker:so not all joking aside
Speaker:this is why I brought this up
Speaker:uh I don't feel like
Speaker:I drank enough to be a person that peed on
Speaker:that's why I always thought I had a peeing issue
Speaker:I've had frequent urination
Speaker:for years and years and years
Speaker:and I always thought that's what made me worry about
Speaker:having cancer or something
Speaker:was because that happened to me
Speaker:and it didn't make sense to me
Speaker:I could see if you were like
Speaker:blacked out drunk and you wake me like oh
Speaker:for me it wasn't like that
Speaker:the couple times it happened I was like
Speaker:damn I got it
Speaker:I always thought something was wrong
Speaker:so I never got my prostate checked for um
Speaker:I did once on the radio
Speaker:is that the thumb thing
Speaker:no what I don't know what they did to you on the radio
Speaker:they put a thumb in your butt
Speaker:oh they lied to you
Speaker:that's the prostate exam
Speaker:I don't put a thumb in anyone's ass
Speaker:what are you talking
Speaker:about yes you do
Speaker:no I don't do
Speaker:other people
Speaker:there's a prostate exam that we did on the radio
Speaker:where they would feel your prostate
Speaker:yeah a finger
Speaker:yeah was it just
Speaker:not the thumb
Speaker:was it a doctor who stuck that thumb
Speaker:it was a I swear to God
Speaker:it was a doctor on the radio
Speaker:and they said
Speaker:did they use a glove yes hmm
Speaker:did they have a medical degree
Speaker:you know what's weird
Speaker:there were no microphones
Speaker:I'm not sure we were in the video
Speaker:yeah no cameras either
Speaker:right yeah dark
Speaker:wait are you joking with me right now
Speaker:no I don't use a thumb
Speaker:I use one or two fingers
Speaker:I thought you were
Speaker:I thought you were saying the whole thing was bananas
Speaker:that anybody even put a finger in it
Speaker:you're saying which
Speaker:the what the
Speaker:and a a prostate examine in general is now archaic
Speaker:and we don't recommend that methodology
Speaker:we're finding that people are over
Speaker:diagnosed with problems just because subjectively
Speaker:the doctor thinks it's enlarged
Speaker:oh and then I'll have an image test
Speaker:or even a biopsy and find out there's nothing wrong
Speaker:so unless you have symptoms
Speaker:or a very strong person or family history
Speaker:we don't recommend doing a prostate exam
Speaker:I know your eyes are glazed over
Speaker:cause you're still thinking
Speaker:someone sucked their thumb up your ass no
Speaker:I'm still thinking
Speaker:why did someone stick their thumb up your ass
Speaker:let me say something
Speaker:we've been dating for a while but I
Speaker:there is one fault of mine I've never told you about
Speaker:I'll never stick my thumb up your ass
Speaker:you know what
Speaker:you know what I've never told you
Speaker:that's a fault of mine
Speaker:oh my god there were two thumbs no
Speaker:one of my faults is when someone puts a digit in my ass
Speaker:I'm unable to identify it
Speaker:so I would didn't even turn around
Speaker:it could have been a finger
Speaker:I swear I don't know why I said thumb
Speaker:I was just thinking I wasn't back there
Speaker:your flexibility
Speaker:and we did it to raise awareness
Speaker:that some guys like that shit no
Speaker:no for prostate cancer no no
Speaker:I think the case in point
Speaker:for anyone who actually wants medical advice today
Speaker:and not just to think about your stories
Speaker:is if you have symptoms
Speaker:see your doctor
Speaker:if you're asymptomatic
Speaker:and you don't have a strong history
Speaker:you don't need a finger up your butt anymore
Speaker:oh how cool is that
Speaker:very cool but what if I'm afraid to ask Erica
Speaker:are you saying it's not that big a deal if we catch it
Speaker:no if you're afraid to ask
Speaker:that's the problem
Speaker:you have to catch it early
Speaker:and that's what I want this message to be conveyed as
Speaker:yeah is you have to ask right away
Speaker:cause if you wait
Speaker:shit can spread
Speaker:and that's when you get into trouble
Speaker:and if you don't
Speaker:wait it could not be a big deal at all right
Speaker:but we also have to get over the embarrassing factor
Speaker:we haven't talked about that
Speaker:people are really embarrassed
Speaker:but I I talk about this stuff all the time
Speaker:we talked about my friend who
Speaker:sees buttholes all the time
Speaker:he doesn't bother him
Speaker:you mean embarrassed about having your
Speaker:they're embarrassed to come in and say hey
Speaker:I'm having a problem with erectile dysfunction
Speaker:or I'm having a problem with frequent urination
Speaker:or I feel something swollen or painful down there
Speaker:they don't wanna ask
Speaker:because they think it's so sensitive
Speaker:but what they neglect to consider is 1
Speaker:doctors do it all the time true
Speaker:2 we're professional
Speaker:we're not gonna be making fun of you
Speaker:our job is to help you not tease you or hurt you and 3
Speaker:where do you do that for others
Speaker:well just for you
Speaker:um sorry what was three
Speaker:I keep if you wait
Speaker:it would spread
Speaker:and the potential for more harm is a lot higher
Speaker:exponentially higher
Speaker:and that's what we're trying to avoid
Speaker:isn't it weird that we know that
Speaker:like you just said
Speaker:you wouldn't even let me call the podcast
Speaker:doctor the dumbass
Speaker:because you think I'm kind of a smart guy
Speaker:I we know this shit
Speaker:but why are we afraid right
Speaker:like but I think what you said was important
Speaker:which is it can be it could be nothing
Speaker:and then hell yeah
Speaker:or it could be something
Speaker:and they could go
Speaker:hey we need to do like a biopsy hey
Speaker:that's nothing
Speaker:you're on your way
Speaker:and then you get this piece of mind and you did it
Speaker:but you just gotta get in there
Speaker:and show me your butthole
Speaker:I think that's a message
Speaker:I think denial
Speaker:I don't think I can give you specific examples
Speaker:but denial is very powerful
Speaker:and a lot of people prefer
Speaker:to be in denial and say that they're fine
Speaker:when they know that there's something going on
Speaker:Wanna hear some crazy what
Speaker:get in there and show me your butthole
Speaker:it's a podcast hosted by these two guys Jamie
