Episode 10. The Brain/Shane Fleg

[Music]
Welcome to the jock doc podcast
featuring Dr. London Smith when he’s not
pumping iron in the gym he’s pumping
knowledge into the ears of his listeners
introducing your host Dr. London Smith
[Applause]
hello and welcome to Jock Doc where we
discuss fitness and health and how to
incorporate our modern understanding of
science and medicine into our daily
lives but without it being so boring I’m
your host dr. London Smith (.com) I
would like to begin by apologizing to
our listeners we have received some
feedback claiming that we are using far
too many technical medical terms such as
ear and hair in the future we’ll try to
you know dumb these down a little bit
not to say the audience is dumb but
simplify simplifies a better word keep
it on a level where we can all
appreciate and learn here to help with
that is our producer Cameron unlike me
he’s always out and about searching out
what is going on in the world so he
understands what you the listeners want
to hear
-finger on the pulse
mm-hmm yes so don’t be surprised if he something
you would not know anything about I mean
well don’t be surprised if he makes a
rare small note to guide us along mm-hm
all right also with us is DJ Dylan IN DA HOUSE plus
Cameron has informed me that we are
actually we’re expecting a guest later
on in the show we are so stay tuned for
that all right before we move on I would
like to address a bit of feedback that
we received from user Shane Fleg if
global warming is real do you think it
will have an effect on the health of
humanity as a whole
first of all I would like to thank you
for contacting us at jock doc it is of
course always a pleasure to hear from
our listeners thank you for asking
something really related to science and
medicine sometimes we get questions that
seem almost like they’re directed at
something else
-well I mean it’s really related to giant hoaxes but
-yeah well okay so well so I’ll go ahead and answer
that question real quick it’s it’s a big question it’s pretty big
but um the basic answer is yes global
warming also known as climate change it is a
significant danger to a great deal of humanity yes it will absolutely have an effect on the health of humanity as a
whole and we are unfortunately already
seeing those effects in the form of
natural disaster
-if global warming’s real
rising ocean temperatures
-then how come I eat an ice-cream cone outside yesterday
okay well that’s you had something refrigerated frozen in that
mm-hmm
-yeah but you’ve been outside outside and nothing happened I ate it ate the whole thing every bite
-yeah but so so so that’s your I got me a little bit closer to weather but really describing something cold not heating up too fast
-I ate an ice cream cone outside okay global warming is fake okay I don’t I don’t believe that that’s an instance that either proves or disproves for that matter climate change I think it’s more just you had something cold that didn’t melt
-I bought frozen peas at the grocery store
okay
-and when I got home they were not completely unfrozen okay so explain that
okay well you can’t did you you drove home
-yeah
okay so in the car you actually have climate control so that’s like your air conditioner right so that
-that’s interesting so in a way like we’re in control of climate change well with some tiles in our car in if the climate of
your car inside the car
-Oh see this is the kind of stuff I didn’t know what people talk about climate change all the time and they talk about oh we’ve got to change all these habits you just got to turn a knob in your car well and while you’re in your car it can it can kind of work like but but it’s very micro whereas macro meet like it’s a it’s a small environment it’s an enclosed it took closed system kind of things so it’s only in your car whereas what we’re talking about with climate change is the
entire planet which speaking of cars the
the exhaust the pollution from the cars
so you’re saying the planet has a big
dial that in the same oh man this is
crazy to me so in the same way that I’m
able to control the climate in my car
resident able to control the climate of
the world with a big dial it sounds like
in Washington DC no okay no that’s
there’s no there isn’t a big dial but in
a way the president turned the dial
people okay I’m tired of these politics
not letting the president time the dial
okay cuz he what what he can do is is
push forward policies to to tied the
dial no introductive not the real
physical dial that you’re referring to
but we can delay and you know help help
to push off climate change to stave it
off I believe might be the best term for
it this is interesting too because I’m
really into science oh well okay well
then I guess um I love science just go
back to our you you know the guy’s a
Tyson yeah yeah the physicist yes racist
yeah oh good so even watching some of
his stuff I’ve never seen him in
anything okay as he is I know have you
heard his like I think he has a I think
he has a podcast now okay so how do you
know him bumper stickers so he you just
read bumper stickers that had his name
on it
well it’ll have like a picture of him
and he’s like like peeing on the Ford
logo okay and it’s because of those
bumper stickers that you believe in
science yes huge science nerd okay well
so we’ll go ahead and move on that’s
alright think yeah oh yeah thank you uh
we answered his question thank you user
Shane fleg once again thank you for
reaching out now for a quick brief quote
from our psych ward
prompted a woman said to me I saw skunk
by my bed I asked a skunk where we are
the skunk said you’re at the hospital
and then skunk left a mess but I cleaned
it up later that day the same patient
said she won’t eat fish because quote
they get them one day little when they
have snot developed they crying and they
still wearing their little diapers so to
clarify there was no skunk at the
hospital and fish do not typically wear
diapers but there are usually skunks at
the hospital right no no I that’s not
even a myth that I’ve ever heard of
never heard that no now that there’s
these gunk at the hospital then go to
another one I’d like the whole thing
that’s that seems like good advice maybe
but no that’s people people don’t
I mean people sometimes bring like their
pets like a dog or a cat maybe and even
that’s some Isis if you go to a hospital
and there’s not a skunk there you find
another one that has won every hospital
I’ve ever been to has a skunk in the
lobby
that’s so you select your I thought you
were saying the other way so you select
your hospitals based on the fact it has
to have a skunk well yeah the more the
better
have you been – I’ve been to hospital
with multiple skunks yes
were they are you sure this was a
hospital
it said hospital outside was it an
animal hospital even that would be
unusual to me
like a veterinarian just said a hospital
okay
okay so maybe 35 skunks tonight okay so
that that sounds like maybe it wasn’t a
people hospital
it also honestly I don’t know a lot of
people with skunks for pets so it sounds
like it wouldn’t be a pet hospital you
sure it’s that hospital though look I
went to a hospital no skunks so I went
to the next door
no skunks I went to the next door no
skunks until eventually I reached a door
there’s about 35 guns from there I went
there I got what I needed
I left what did you need a skunk oh okay
well I’m glad you found so you have a
skunk for a pet now or it knows for
medicine it was medicinal purposes not
recreational in what way was it
medicinal it’s complicated ascribe in an
audio format but you can see if you take
so imagine this is the skunk
okay then imagine this is my body and if
you go if you if you go okay and he’s
making a emotion you know do you see
what I’m saying placing one inside of
the other did you turn again
yes they’re not great for the audio
format but you can pick did you did you
try to to insert an animal into no dr.
London well I’m trying our audience is
mostly children you can’t say stuff like
that okay I I do apologize ate the skunk
so I could get some of its powers I want
to be able to spray on people and make
them stink so you you ate the skunk for
medicinal purposes and the medicinal
purpose is so that you can spray the
skunk still my foes your foot so your
medicine is attacking people with you’re
attacking your foes with the skunk stink
yeah my first
now for today’s topic the brain the
brain and spinal cord make up the
central nervous system the brain has a
lot of jobs but for today we will talk
about its main jobs first the central
nervous system is in charge of taking in
sensory input from all over the body and
the external environment then it
processes and interprets that sensory
input then finally it decides what to do
in response to that sensory input so for
example Cameron your eyes right now are
taking in light from light input from
just looking around you don’t know that
okay well I’m and are you able to see
right now I don’t feel comfortable
saying well now that you’ve assumed what
I can and cannot do so normally in a
given individual your eyes will take in
light input from just looking around and
then your brain converts that input into
electrical signals so it goes from light
to electrical signals in your brain so
it’s it’s so you’re saying that in the
same way that a light charges up a solar
panel light is filtering through our
eyes creating electricity and that’s
what causes our nerves that’s what makes
us nervous okay no I thought this
feeling that I was having after those
eight that’s good I thought that feeling
may have been connected to what I was
eating but what you’re saying is that
those are just my nerves because that’s
the nervous system I got nervous I’m not
saying that cuz of all the light that my
eyes are accepting in so I need to be
closing my eyes more often this is the
kind of stuff I wish our previous
episodes were more like this dr. London
okay now I I need to says once so you’ve
been having symptoms since eating that
skunk well yeah sure I’ve been nervous
when he’s okay so you’ve just been more
anxious nervous you’ve been yeah like
anxious because of how bad I feel well
what in what way do you feel bad well I
mean their nerves I’m shaky my stomach
hurts can’t sleep can’t really eats
can’t really think okay drive anymore
which is I wasn’t expecting that
is that because of vision problems is
that where you were so sensitive about
it’s like I get behind the wheel and I
just I can’t drive can’t go like you
can’t move your body I can’t make the
car go did you
is it was a car turn on were you putting
it yes the right gear I know how to turn
on a car dr. London okay I just so I’m
trying to get it’s a series of wires
that you connect them all together is
this your car yes it’s the car that I’m
driving well now I’m not driving it
anyway nervous system I’m nervous
cuz a light it’s charging up my nerves I
did okay and just to clarify you sort of
like when you rubbed your feet on the
ground and it creates static electricity
you’re charging it up and then you you
put your finger on a doorknob and it
zaps ya it’s a different process light
is charging your nerves that’s what I’m
hearing the light going through your
eyes I okay sounds crazy
I agree with that sentiment so this is
the kind of stuff that should be on a
bumper sticker right so you can be a
science geek about this yeah so it’s
when you okay do you know whose car it
is that you’re that you are using
trotter trying to use currently
I can’t use any car currently I can’t
drive right but could it be because it
sounds like you stole this car is the
way you’re describing it like are you
hot-wiring it I don’t know what those
words mean I’m trying to start the car
by putting wires together that are very
hot to hold okay well okay so well I’m
basic piece of advice you should
probably not seek out any more skunks to
eat okay that’s a basic I believe that
you know despite what you were
interpreting from what I said it’s
probably the way you’re eating not it’s
not natural to be to have shakiness and
some
yeah your tremors anything like that I
don’t know if you’d experience weight
loss headaches you you’re having you’re
uncomfortable with talking about your
vision your altered mental status
it sounds like yeah so that I’m not
exactly sure the pathology but we might
that might be worth going to a hospital
without skunks I I mean people say if
you walk into a hospital and there’s not
a skunk there go to the next point I’d
have never heard that before
people have always said that always
that’s the first thing that’s my
earliest memory is being told that by
your parents yep okay well we never we
haven’t have really ever gotten would
you mind if I asked you about your
family I would find okay all right well
okay I’ll leave that alone for now my
dad is a sailor is okay so as your is
your dad still with us I don’t mean
physically geographically with us oh
he’s physically still with us okay good
okay yeah so so he sails for a living or
like does he do that for work his
employment his his physical body sails
around I assumed the world okay but to
say is he is he alive I guess no but his
body is with us and it sails around the
world
my family is Vikings and this is a
traditional Viking funeral you wanted to
know more about my family okay that’s
this is a Viking okay okay that makes
that makes that’s better than what a
Viking funeral you put the body on a
boat push the body on the water you
should have flaming arrow and it catches
on fire right I’m not that great of a
shot so the body just kind of kept going
and now I did tell the rest of my family
that the arrow did hit the boat and
catching on fire but it did not actually
do that so the body’s kind of just going
around the just kind of keeps going
around the world keeps cycling I’m sorry
to hear did does your family listen to
this podcast
would they with this new shock them if
they listen I’m not comfortable telling
you whether or not my family listens to
things I think that’s kind of maybe not
your business okay but this is again
part of the whole your whole data mining
right but okay okay well we’ll go ahead
and move on from there then right I
guess all right do we have any sponsors
today um my neighbor’s cat I don’t think
has been eating enough so maybe someone
should kind of take that cat okay I feel
like that’s not exactly it so a sponsor
is someone who you know pays a product
that someone might want I don’t think I
see Mike my neighbor’s cat through the
window eating like twice a day I think
it’s probably eating like three times a
day I think someone could be taking care
of it better well I feel like that and I
think that you could just go pick up the
cat that’s a sponsor okay I don’t okay
you’re saying like someone a sponsor
like sponsoring a person okay well I so
what I’m referring to for this would be
someone who pays us to advertise the cat
looks well their product we we pay the
sponsors for the permission to advertise
products I was hoping to be able to save
some money by maybe talking about some
stuff that was our own stuff rather than
having to pay these sponsors these tens
of thousands of dollars that we’ve been
paying yeah we yeah straight out of our
pockets well your debit card see it’s
too expensive I’m tired of spending so
much money on these sponsors I’m just
trying to keep it local I am and it
looked the cat he looks fine it’s not
like the cat skinny but I watch this I
mean I watch this cat most of my day and
it’s only eating twice most of you jeez
are you at home a lot just watching the
cat yeah like I have I mean like I have
cameras and I review the video that
next morning and stuff I just think it
could be eating more so if you’re a
listener and if you think you can take
better care of this cat than my neighbor
I I would really encourage you to just
swing by and just pick up the cat well I
I’m not sure that I can endorse the same
thing but it sounds like we don’t have a
I think the listeners would really like
it if you endorse I don’t kidnap watch
the ratings live and every time you say
you don’t endorse this cat we lose to
people okay I I can say I endorse the
cat I like I like cats
sorry that may turn off some listeners
actually actually we did lose some dog
people yeah sorry to hear that say
animals exist animals exist that’s the
perfect level
yeah just acknowledging that they are
there yeah okay are there are there
certain groups that don’t believe in the
existence of animals I would say that I
think a lot of people say a lot of
things about certain animals that I
don’t necessarily believe okay like that
they exist so you’re saying I believe in
cats so I don’t believe in horses I
think they’re too big I know what the
size of a pet is dogs are pets cats are
pet they’re a certain size horses people
say their horses have are our pets you
see them in movies as pets they’re too
big to be pets what do you believe that
they are then no I think I mean I think
it’s their animals it’s like a sasquatch
it’s like Loch Ness monster it’s you
don’t you know a myth or you don’t
believe that horses exist no no there’s
no proof that they exist
black beauty you think black beauty’s
real
I’m sorry I didn’t know I was dealing
with a child who believed in fairy tales
okay I well alkanes are you saying that
those are real cuz those are smaller at
least Falcons are just pigeons that
people mistakenly took for some sort of
mythical being so you don’t believe in
something I think it is moving super
fast people just see the blur and they
think that they saw a hawk in the same
way that you might see a Bigfoot because
you saw you know a monkey in the woods
okay well it’s it’s interesting to hear
that viewpoint I’m glad that we’re at
least having multiple sides on this
because I do believe in the existence of
animals all known known animals that
have been catalogued yeah I mean I do to
cats I believe in you know porcupines
dogs so porcupines make it on your list
yeah of course yeah okay working
homeward bound yes
any animal featured in homeward bound
that’s real that’s a real that those
animals they were lost and they got home
right how could they have done that if
if that movie was fake
those animals made at home I’ve seen the
pictures okay okay would still be lost
if it was if it was fake okay okay so um
we’ll go ahead and move on from yeah we
do pick up the cat okay
his code like his garage code is 15 20
the the owner of the cat yeah so just
type that in and then just take the cat
well I
I 1520 all right let’s move yeah I
believe in the existence of animals
that’s what I can say about that so
anyway all right uh do we have a guest
today yeah we do all right let’s see hi
hi my name is dr. London Smith and this
is jock doc hey hey guys I’m Shane fleg
actually uh I’m the one who wrote in
earlier about the global warming
question I recognize your name yeah yeah
I I’m have to say I’m a I’m a frequent
listener of the podcast I would say big
fan but you know there there have been
some questionable topics and opinions on
here yeah it’s good not judging anyone
for their opinion but I do like to you
know I don’t want to support any
opinions necessarily that I’m that I
think are bad okay I think a lot of this
stuff maybe dr. London’s been trying to
push is questionable I’d well it makes
sense for someone who’s you know been in
medical school and brought up under the
umbrella of and the watch of big pharma
it makes sense to have some of the
opinions that he has but I don’t and and
don’t I don’t blame you I used to think
more that way when I was first starting
my research I do and so and you know
what’s crazy he’s controlled by Big
Pharma he’s never been to a farm I asked
him right right I mean not like I
haven’t done ivan been a farmer see I
didn’t even spend one day as a farmer
and did he’s in the pocket a big farm
you know farming is technically bad for
the planet mmm what I’ve heard this if
you if you over farm in certain areas
and don’t allow the soil to rejuvenate
oh yeah yeah then you can the the soil
blows all over the earth we saw it in
the Dust Bowl mmm-hmm so it I read all
about this on Shane talks I mean you
keep doing that oh you read that was
that you that’s me that’s my website
that’s my home page you’re kidding me
this is crazy this is
it sounds so okay well if we can back up
for just a moment um I could ask mr.
could I tell you mr. flag or do you
prefer to just you can call me Shane
Shane okay pretty uh you know informal
guy okay Shane what um what what do you
do for a living
um well I work at Walgreens but but
that’s kind of my bread and butter
mostly I would I would call myself more
of a blogger okay or an educator okay
okay well we have we have that in common
that’s the purpose of this podcast is
right yeah like I was saying I’ve you
know had years of research so I think my
place in this world is more you know the
education space is kind of where I
belong when you say an educator and your
research well when you say research
specifically where have you researched
have you done like worked with
scientists well I love the Internet
of course I went to I went to school
through senior year of high school he’s
dropped out yeah I dropped out senior
year halfway through because I realized
what a waste of time it was well with
the Internet at my fingertips I was able
to learn and educate there so yeah I
would learn something and you know show
other people what I had learned
you know I saw on the internet the other
day a video of a monkey scrolling
through Instagram
I bet dr. London couldn’t show me that
okay and honestly I’m not surprised to
see a monkey scrolling through Instagram
I mean they are similar to us although I
don’t personally believe that we came
from primates okay what do you believe
well I think that we evolved in a
different way than primates because if
if we if we came from primates why are
there still primates and why are we so
much smarter than them I’m sorry you’re
right okay why are we so much smarter
it’s that’s the idea of evolution which
a great many scientists subscribe to
this idea that slowly over time over man
we have evolved from certain amount of
beings we’ve had a adaptive changes in
our DNA and over time we’ve we’ve just
developed evolved is the term so you’re
saying that that doesn’t make sense
all right right I’m saying it doesn’t
make sense because we’re so much smarter
you’re a monkey but it makes sense to a
monkey
but unfortunately dr. Linda and your
audience isn’t monkeys they’re real
people with real thoughts with real
brains well okay so you’re saying that
they’re a monkey would hear what you’re
saying and say ooh let me let me eat
what doctor London’s trying to sell well
monkeys can’t understand language
exactly right so the UM whenever you say
Coco right right of course
the so those those those creatures
they’re different from us they’re less
evolved than us and that’s sort of the
principle you’re staying right well what
I think you can swing in a tree like a
monkey eyes are so much more evolved I
you see enough as they can swing that
that’s one of those traits that I’d love
to see you try I’d love to see you race
a monkey it’s one of those things that
that over time has been less like how
our feet are not like our hands whereas
for a lot of those types of creatures
their feet resemble the hands they can
grab onto things and that’s for move
into the jungle whereas the further
evolution has pushed us to you know it’s
it’s more about brain power than about
brawn you know that kind of eat someone
else’s ham that had to be kind of put on
there and I I don’t know it seems kind
of weird that you’re making fun of me
for that on this this wasn’t targeted at
you it wasn’t argued at you and I I know
that you had the surgery which I don’t
quite understand you say it was an
accident but you also say that you paid
to have it done and I don’t get that
well I think feet were an accident by
God okay well anyway Shan Shan why are
you why are you here today is it for did
you have a question I know you asked
about the global warming thing right
that’s I would say that’s kind of why
I’m here because I’ve been wanting to
ask that question but I wanted to be
sure and be able to be here and monitor
kind of where the conversation went
because I don’t feel like you guys even
really answered it correctly or in depth
earlier so I just wanted to come back to
that
I think Cameron was making a good point
earlier he was basically saying that he
bought some peas at the grocery store
frozen and by the time he got them to
his house they were still frozen okay
not yet thawed and you would think in a
world that would be that is becoming
warmer well it would still be becoming
warmer during that time that he was
traveling from the grocery store to his
home therefore the peas would have
warmed up and the you know what’s funny
the temperature was the exact same when
I left the grocery store it was 135
degrees and when I got home it was still
obviously speaking Celsius because
Fahrenheit that would be way too hot so
I think you know in order to get a
better handle on this pee situation I’m
sorry defer listeners I do need to back
up on that so 30 degrees Fahrenheit is
still very hot but you know that’s why
it would be Celsius but but in Celsius
it’d be even hotter because like hundred
degrees is boiling in Celsius which 135
in Fahrenheit isn’t isn’t at the point
of boiling it’s well actually that’s
actually in Celsius it would be cooler
because you have to shift it you know
freezing is 32 degrees in Fahrenheit but
in Celsius it’s zero so you’re still
you’re four Celsius you’re having to
shift it back 32 degrees
okay so boiling would be much cooler
than it would be in Fahrenheit are you
familiar with the and perhaps this is
one of those classes that you didn’t
it’s the classic
it’s the classic metric system you know
bias that the world has there you know
they’re trying to say that Celsius is
hotter it’s the new thing no it’s it’s
it’s really it’s really less useful you
have misunderstandings like this you
know so you you think that the metric
system is a problem like because a lot
of the world especially necessarily
think it’s a problem I just think it’s
inaccurate okay so for one thing to
convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius or
vice versa it’s a there’s an equation
it’s not as simple as just subtracting
technically adding 32 to the scale you
see what I mean well it’s I I see how it
it’d be nice if it was that easy but
there’s an e there is an equation for it
which up top of my head I don’t quite
remember the equation but it’s not the
the the different degrees aren’t you can
expect dr. London it actually know
something it’s right it’s a scale
it’s a scaled difference it’s asking too
much of dr. London to be able to say
something of any intent well it’s the
same thing it’s I would say that the two
measurements the two units of
measurement are congruent
but Fahrenheit is more specific and
useful like well well I don’t think that
well so so Celsius you know it’s fine
but once once you want to get down into
specifics and really measure something
you know that’s very small a very small
difference in temperature you’re gonna
want to use Ferren well that’s not so
it’s just a matter of metric is based on
you know like some rule of it’s zero
degrees is freezing 100 degrees is
boiling it’s a sort of easier
measurement so there we go
are you well I I think I think what
Cameron’s trying to say is that you’re
just not making much sense I understand
where you’re coming from because you’re
more from the medically educated
official you know taught by the
conglomerate and so and so where I’m
coming from is just you know from a
little more out of the box
and just from my viewpoint
I would say that Fahrenheit is more
useful Celsius is a little more it’s a
scam it is and honestly I was actually
gonna bringing up scams I I was gonna
say that
I think global warming you guys were
referring to it more as a hoax but I
would not well I I heard I consider it a
hoe right you were both saying it was a
hoax but what I would rather say I
believe that global warming is more of a
scam than a hoax
all right well Cameron do we have
another sponsor today we do dr. London
oh great we have an app oh great yeah
we’ve been cruising on these yeah yeah
this is a there’s an app it’s available
in all app stores you can get it
anywhere any country oh okay this is a
weather app it’s called the all-in-one
weather wonder forecast tracker okay the
most detailed and useful weather app
that exists okay so this is like the
real yard yeah well I mean all you it’s
so simple okay
all you got to do you’re gonna download
the app okay you gotta you got to go out
and get a weather vane did that connect
it to the app you got to get a rain
gauge connect that to the app go go to
the store get a thermometer you got to
connect that to the app okay you want to
get a barometer connect that to the app
you want to set up a sort of a Doppler
style radar system and something you I
know you’re gonna ask do you connect
that to the app yeah you do you just
connect that to the app super simple is
it is it a simple process to connect it
to the app sure okay why not right so
but you say like this is that sounds
like a lot of stuff that you have to get
in addition to buying these I’m sorry is
it a free app or does it
oh the app is free okay Yap is for
absolutely free and you say like it but
when you download it though it’s free
but it sounds like the app itself
doesn’t the
is 100% free the app itself you open the
app it gives you list it gives you this
list of things you got to get and then
once you’ve got it you click a checkbox
and then there’s an arrow that points
you where it is in your house like a
message you’ll you will never lose your
Doppler radar system again okay but
because the you know that giant machine
kind of gets lost in your house now the
app just a narrow reason to what room it
is facing that reasoning that light
targeted at me like in my house I would
lose that machine yes okay but I mean if
you’ve got to get some weather balloons
as well you can’t forget that attach
that to the app and again the app is
gonna point you to where the weather
balloon is until it gets high enough and
then it can’t reach but it when it’s on
the ground it can say hey the weather
balloons over there go look at it and so
the app is basically just telling you
where to look for the things that you’ve
bought yeah it sounds like like the app
is actually just telling you to a bunch
of arrows become a like figure out how
to be a meteorologist does it tell you
how to well read and determine no you do
need to hire a meteorologist to
interpret this data so contact a local
news agency just ask them hey can I get
in contact with your meteorologist you
know maybe negotiate some sort of salary
and you’re you’re like I mean then they
are able to look at all this equipment
tell you what the weather is gonna be
tomorrow so it’s like asking them to do
like an off hours freelance job of
tracking the weather specifically I
guess at your house yeah it sucks when
you just you don’t know if it’s gonna
rain today you know what I mean ah
should I bring an umbrella can I wear my
leather boots or not you know yeah I now
with this app you’re able to know all
that information and more
okay.what and animart it’s gonna rain
how fast it’s gonna rain the app tells
you that the meteorologists that you’ve
hired will – I mean that it’s you know
he’s your employee so I
however you want to do that if he wants
to give you a daily report if you want
to give you a daily phone call that’s
kind of your decision I’m not going to
tell you how to deal with your own
employees
you should probably register as an LLC
like as a company if you’re gonna have
employees and you probably need to set
up some sort of benefit system okay you
don’t want someone working for you
without benefits okay even though you
know if they might need an assistant as
well so then you’d have to hire yeah
just like a few people kind of get it
going you don’t want them working out of
your house like every day so you
probably need to you know rent an office
space I feel like what you’re about to
lead into is you’re gonna that are
easiest app you’ve ever seen it
absolutely okay because because I was
gonna say it sounds like you’re about to
just have to start your own Weather
Channel TV station hey that’s your
decision if you want to start a TV
network it sounds like that’s what
sounds probably like a pretty good idea
but if you just want this information
for yourself yeah like for me I’m a
private person so I’m not gonna blast in
everything on my own channel I just want
to know when I wake up in the morning I
just want to know is it gonna rain later
that’s all so what do I do I call it the
company that I’ve set up and I talked to
the people right so you you just call
into your own company and say what
what’s the weather gonna be you know
what doctor landed that’s not just it
there’s more to this half there’s
actually a pro version okay that’s sort
of a ways for weather where you can let
people know and people can let you know
what the weather’s gonna be based on
your relatives joints okay so my Aunt
Martha for example her her knees start
singing when a storms coming so she
contacts me she says hey my knees
singing I submit it to the app now other
people who have the app can have an idea
of what the weather is gonna be based on
my Aunt Martha’s so yes you’re not just
asking her like say what the weather is
where she is only coordinated no because
nothing’s more accurate than a than a
bone I
I don’t know if I okay
well now that sounds that’s great uh we
appreciate our sponsors of course
absolutely you know be able to keeps us
on the air so um thank you to OHS the
day of the app again it’s the all-in-one
weather wonder forecast tracker so I
guess all-in-one is referring to the
fact that it can point you to all to
everything and also utilize family
members joints to help inform you of the
weather but in the paid version yes yeah
oh yeah that cost money okay so the
reason that global warming is more of a
scam rather than a hoax
is because of the greenery it’s because
of the moolah the money who’s getting
rich on global warming you might say oh
the oil companies no it’s not the oil
companies the Sun is actually would
would be giving to the earth so it’s not
the Sun okay I see where you’re coming
from
but think the main by the way thank you
for saying I see where you’re coming
from I don’t get any of that from dr.
Londe well every time I say anything he
points to me he says you’re a loser and
stupid well and and you have to remember
where he’s coming from you know it’s
like parenting if a parent calls a kid
stupid the kids gonna call his friends
stupid if a doctor is you know educated
under the system he is going to write
he’s going to act a lot like them say
the same kind of things have the similar
believing that’s not now I want to hear
more about the scam all right so that’s
not the reason I know I was arguing
before and saying I thought it was a
hoax I mean I’m fixing to blow your mind
you’re gonna understand this you’re
gonna love this this is what this is
what I as me as a listener to this show
as well this is what I well like I said
I’ve been doing research for years on
the Internet and I have you know pulled
from all over the dark web the light web
I’ve pulled from all aspects of the web
my
information and the reason that global
warming is a scam rather than a hoax is
because of the money and who’s making
money well I’ll tell you it’s the
scientists who are making the money I
talking about because they are the ones
researching it and they get paychecks
for their research I’m saying that they
have found the perfect scenario to take
advantage of so they if if global
warming think about this I’m going back
to Fahrenheit here Fahrenheit is very
important to scientists who are
measuring global warming I don’t know if
that’s I when looking up global warming
online if you look at the temperature
increase since 1970 it is 0.3 degrees
Fahrenheit now taking the human body
temperature into account now everyone is
resting at about 98.6 degrees correct
the core temperature right so if from
temperature of 98 point 9 well that’s
close to approaching fever so if in the
next decade we went up even 0.1 degree
we would all be sick it’s ok and this is
why I love science
now do you know though do you know a lot
of times information false information
can get into your mind and you can
actually start believing false
information now no not right no you
wouldn’t think you wouldn’t think so and
that’s what’s so dangerous and and let
me let me tell you here’s where the
money comes in now if people think that
global warming is real and it is rising
the temperature of the human body and we
all think that we’re sick I who’s going
to benefit dr. London doctors exactly ok
so so you’re saying that the the earth
increasing in temperature so the average
temperature is above that of a fever
will automatically make the average
humans core temperature increase to a
fever above a fever or to it to a fever
range and you think that first of all
that that causality would happen and
that humans with that increased
temperature to a fever would go to the
doctor as a result because doctors say
it’s a fever and that is why scientists
are pushing this climate change now that
I’ve seen the truth I okay it’s just
like I said the point about him saying
the words like scam over and over cuz
it’s like he’s going scams chemcam
schema schema scam scam scam scam scam
scam because it’s not a scam well let me
check my scam book it says Monday scam
scam Wednesday breakfast bowl then scam
because what I’m trying to because the
so that causality does so the core
temperature is maintained by your body’s
homeostasis which well it’s it’s a whole
topic to get into but your body keeps a
careful balance so that so that your
body stays your core stays at that same
temperature
like you said 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit
yeah and it but it takes in that
external temperature with the sensory
inputs as we talked about with the brain
and then it decides human body has the
human body has been at 98.6 degrees
since the beginning of medical studies I
mean right so what so what I’m what I’m
saying is that with the increase like
the outside increase in temperature the
body wouldn’t be tricked into increasing
its temperature some people live in
places where it’s over a hundred degrees
Fahrenheit prove it and I’m not
necessarily saying that our bodies would
actually become sick and our
temperatures would actually rise to
above ninety nine degrees Fahrenheit I’m
saying that the brain is a very powerful
thing
like I said and if you’re being fed the
information that global warming is
rising by 0.3 degrees and if it
approaches point four degrees we’ll be
looking at 99 degrees Fahrenheit it for
body temperature you would think so if
people are telling you that the global
that the globe is warming up then you
would think the body would warm up too
so we don’t have a lot of wiggle room
there and I I I’m not sure that I feel
like the logic isn’t quite lining up
exactly it’s a placebo it’s a placebo
effect you can care about global global
warming over and over again and I
climate change you your body starts to
adjust to the perceiver effect that’s
sugar pills like okay what horses eat
which dr. London believes them
you know another perfectly good example
of a scam rather than a hoax mm-hmm
is actually vaccinations and I know this
is a controversial subject I did but so
I thought about this right so you get
sick you go get a vaccine right vaccine
let’s say that’s all right that’s that’s
not usually you get the vaccine to
prevent sickness not to to treat it
right but the only way that they know to
give you a vaccine is if you get sick no
no they give you vaccine before you like
it’s preventive it’s that doesn’t make
any sense yeah let me go get my my
windshield fixed before it’s broken
let me just go do that well the logic
just doesn’t make sense so so whenever
you’re a baby and you you haven’t built
a lot of I’m not a baby I’m not a baby
I’m so tired of people calling me a baby
I’m sorry so let’s say I’ve died blood
I’ve done a baby at all so as an adult
we’ll say that as an adult let’s say you
get a vaccine against tetanus okay so a
tetanus booster so you already had a
tetanus shot whenever you were younger
but you still get tetanus boosters every
so often because you get the tetanus
booster I mean that’s the every every
like five different pieces that’s when
you get that’s the line piece right
which is the straight line rather than
um the L or the S or the Z shape
I don’t know so well for for tetanus
this is to prevent you getting tetanus
I’m not you’re trying to get a straight
line to clear it out and I think the
most useful one which people often
listen call it when I was there it’s
gonna be the straight line when I was a
kid I stepped on a nail what did I do
I went and got a tetanus shot you didn’t
see me getting a tetanus shot before I
stepped on a nail it wouldn’t have made
any sense out I’m in a waste of money
here’s what they do they tell you you
have to get a vaccine when you’re young
when you’re a bit let’s say you’re a
baby they make you go get your hepatitis
vaccine now what you do you just wasted
money and you could have gotten autism
and so it’s really enough it’s really a
double ribbon to not be well now it has
happened and it and it really is a
double whammy there because listen you
don’t think that those doctors have a
referral fee with you know psychologists
and special needs doctors of course they
do that’s why they give them vaccines at
such a young age they they first of all
they give them the vaccine they get
their quick money upfront then the kid
catches autism and he gets sick they
send him to you know their friend who’s
a who’s a psychologist and they send him
to their friend who is a special needs
and to build off of that a little bit I
think just to go back to the tetanus
booster a little bit I think what you
want to do is you want to build up at
least four lines while leaving a space
on the right right or left hand side or
then when you get the booster that comes
in that way it clears four lines at once
that’s that’s gonna maximize your points
okay like you know these are all
to clarify for our listeners the reason
you get those those vaccines and every
year born and like at certain points
during your baby an infant hood so to
speak is to prevent you from getting
diseases that will otherwise kill you
and also to give your doctors plenty of
and moolah that that can’t be treated as
well we don’t have a treatment for it
because a lot of those viruses and
usually put into ching sounds every time
london talks you that would be very
helpful thank you you guys ever heard of
a little thing called ice covering new
diseases well I think that’s all the
time we have thank you – Shane – Shane
Fleg
no problem hope to be back soon yeah and
thank you for sending in the question
and for surprising at least me by being
here thank you – Cameron as always thank
you for the hosts this is Jacques dr.
podcast my name is dr. London Smith dark
rum and we’ll see you next time
bye
[Applause]
oh thanks for listening to that episode
yes you I’m talking to you
we’re we’re closed right sorry if this
isn’t appropriate or whatever but it
seems weird that you still haven’t told
anyone about us like not once have you
mentioned jock dock podcast to your well
your other friends Wow is is it me
do I do I embarrass you I mean it’s
definitely you I okay or do you feel
like I wouldn’t get along with your
other friends that’s definitely true
okay well I guess I’m not sure I guess
what I’m saying is you could go ahead
and introduce me to them and like it
could be casual too like no it doesn’t
to be weird
um if you’re around it’d be weird okay
well okay we’ll just just text my
details like jock doc podcast comm or a
link to your favorite episode and maybe
even share from our social media ad jock
podcast now that I can do okay so at
least we have that thanks for listening
