Listen daily on your favorite 7 00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:32.600 streaming service. It is the crew Cast. I am carell 8 00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:35.560 happy Friday, silvery glad I can join you. I'm so 9 00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:40.119 glad you are here with me. Sy I am still 10 00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:44.039 here with my lump. It's still here. I had the 11 00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:47.520 most fabulous female surgeon. Oh my god. She was wonderful. 12 00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:51.520 She was fashionable, honey. This woman walked in in a 13 00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:55.039 vest okay, no shirt underneath, and I don't know if 14 00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.240 there was a bra. I'm not that personal. But she 15 00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:59.640 walked in and she had some cleavage too, Oh my god. 16 00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:03.119 And she's tall six foot if I were straight. Uh, 17 00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:07.159 this woman, she was a fabulous woman. And they spent 18 00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.000 twenty minutes with me just listening to me prather on 19 00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:14.040 and basically what they're gonna do. She said, don't worry. 20 00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:19.200 She fully believes it's a lipoma. However, it could be 21 00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:22.640 something else. They examined all my other glands and everything, 22 00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:28.159 and so now they've ordered an ultrasound and so next 23 00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:31.000 week I'm gonna go in and get an ultrasound and 24 00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:35.439 that will image the lumps. I have two if one 25 00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:38.680 am I growing and one appear, and they're gonna see 26 00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.519 what they are. But she said, you know, don't not 27 00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:44.439 be concerned. She's like, you do you be concerned about 28 00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:48.719 your health, but don't worry. And I said, okay, So 29 00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:52.400 I'm going to get an ultrasound next week and hopefully 30 00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:55.400 it's a lipoma. She believes it's a lipoma, but we 31 00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:59.920 shall see, so you know that's I mean. And then 32 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:01.760 she said, if it is a lipoma and I want 33 00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:04.760 it out, she can take it out or just leave 34 00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:06.680 it in. And if it gets too big, then take 35 00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:10.240 it out or whatever. So God aging, you know, that's 36 00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:13.120 one of my topics today, is aging. There's this new 37 00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:16.280 study out that studied all these health records, you know, 38 00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:19.439 tens of thousands of health records, and they studied the 39 00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:23.159 molecules in your body and they just studied everything, and 40 00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:27.840 they found out that you don't age gracefully or gradually. 41 00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:33.719 That Actually, when you are forty four you age a lot, 42 00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:39.159 and again when you are sixty you age a lot. 43 00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:45.560 Like in those years you age a lot. And so 44 00:02:45.639 --> 00:02:50.280 there are these two biological times forty four and sixty 45 00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:56.560 where your body undergoes major, major changes and then it 46 00:02:56.639 --> 00:03:00.960 slows down. So it's you know, after you're sixty, you 47 00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:04.199 age a whole lot at sixty and then you do 48 00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:08.800 just gradually age, you know, until you die at forty four, 49 00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:12.800 you age a lot until then you're sixty, So it's 50 00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:17.960 sixteen years apart. Forty four and sixty are the two ages. 51 00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:20.039 Have I can attest to that? How many of you 52 00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:22.039 can attest to that? Because I can attest to that. 53 00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:27.120 First of all, in my forties, mid forties, things started 54 00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:32.960 to go south, mainly my boobs and my testicles, your south. 55 00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:37.879 Gravity started taking over. Their faces started sagging and that 56 00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:40.240 sort of stuff. And then at sixty, Oh, just a 57 00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:42.680 lot of shit happens at sixty, Just a lot. But 58 00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:44.879 the one of the beautiful things that happens at sixty 59 00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:46.759 is your give a shit button goes away. You no 60 00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:49.520 longer have I give a shit. You just took that 61 00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:55.639 button's gone, You're like, screw everybody. But it's very interesting 62 00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:58.360 because in the Bay Area alone, they said that two 63 00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:02.319 hundred thousand people fit in to that demographic. And so 64 00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:06.280 what they're saying is there needs to be doctors very 65 00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:11.919 specifically trained to deal with us when this big wallop 66 00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.919 of aging happens. Now, what I did find out from 67 00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:22.639 this fabulous surgeon today, doctor Herbrera Herberra Habara, Agbarea. Anyway, 68 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:27.079 she's fabulous. What we did talk about is that as 69 00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:31.399 I approached sixty, when I was fifty five, I became 70 00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:35.959 a vegan and started exercising every day, and so I 71 00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:41.360 actually was fighting my body wanted to age rapidly, and 72 00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:44.839 I was deaging my body by being a vegan and 73 00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:47.959 by exercising a lot. So it was a yin and 74 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:52.120 a yang going on, and I probably spared myself from 75 00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:56.279 some major major aging because of the lifestyle, because of 76 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:59.160 being a vegan and being active. Not that it won't 77 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:03.319 happen in time, but I have basically pushed against it 78 00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:07.040 because at the time that I was to be rapidly aging, 79 00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:11.279 I was rapidly deaging, and so they sort of canceled 80 00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:15.720 each other out. I can't imagine what I would be 81 00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:19.000 like right now at sixty one if I hadn't become 82 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:23.319 a vegan and started exercising ninety minutes a day. I don't. 83 00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:27.120 I can't imagine because it's bad enough now, I mean 84 00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:29.720 aches and pains. How many of you out there are 85 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:33.079 over sixty, How many of you and what have you 86 00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:36.279 noticed about your body? Because I got to tell you. 87 00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:38.680 For those of you who are in your forties, you 88 00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:41.279 just wait. For those of you in your fifties, you 89 00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:44.720 just wait because once you get to sixty. I mean, 90 00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:47.800 it's true. I play ball with Ember, you know, every 91 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.720 night for twenty minutes, and when I get up, I 92 00:05:50.959 --> 00:05:53.720 have to lean on the couch because my right leg 93 00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:56.800 because of my back and my disability and such. I 94 00:05:56.839 --> 00:05:59.319 get up and I limp. I do this for the 95 00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:01.879 first I'm making this up. You guys don't know. You're 96 00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.079 not here, trust me. When I get up from playing 97 00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:07.319 ball with Ember at night, it's like it's like this 98 00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.079 for a few steps, and then the leg here, I'm 99 00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:14.040 bending it now, and then the leg, you know, starts 100 00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:18.720 to cooperate and the pain and it goes away, and 101 00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:20.720 I'm able to function, and I do yoga and I 102 00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:22.439 do you know, weights and I run up the hill. 103 00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:26.399 You know, back pain is more often. You gotta get 104 00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:29.079 your teeth clean and everything more often because your gums 105 00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:32.279 start receding. You know, your hair pretty much, you know, 106 00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.360 gives you a big fu. All kinds of things start 107 00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:40.680 happening as you age in your sixties. And you know, 108 00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:46.000 you also start to really be conscious of mortality when 109 00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:49.639 you get to sixty, because a lot of Phil Henry, 110 00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.879 my friend Phil Henry just lost a friend. And you know, 111 00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:56.439 people around you start dying, you know, in their sixties, 112 00:06:56.480 --> 00:06:58.920 in their seventies, in their eighties and in their nineties, 113 00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:02.959 and so you really become aware of your own mortality 114 00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:05.399 in your sixties. And maybe that's why your give a 115 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:08.399 shit button goes away, you know what I mean, maybe 116 00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:10.040 maybe in your brain it's like, you know what, I 117 00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:13.360 can't care anymore. I can't just I have no more 118 00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:16.680 fracts left to give. But I'd like to hear from 119 00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:19.639 you all. If you're around your forties, if you're forty 120 00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:23.680 four around there, have you noticed changes, because they say 121 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.639 that's when you age rapidly at forty four and then 122 00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:30.519 again at sixty. So if you're at sixty or somewhere thereabouts. 123 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.639 Have you noticed changes? And you know what, once you're sixty, 124 00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:37.759 doctor starts saying the dumbest crap to you. You'll say, well, 125 00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:40.399 what's this or what's this? What's this spot here? Oh, 126 00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:43.399 it's your age. It's like I don't want to hear, 127 00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:46.839 you know, like, eugh, that's your age. They just start 128 00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.439 excusing everything. That's your age. That's your age. Doctor, My 129 00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:54.319 right arm fell off. Oh that's your age. You know. So, 130 00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:58.160 you know, things just start not working or they start 131 00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:01.040 not working the way that they used to work. No 132 00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:05.120 matter how healthy you are. It happens to everybody, you know, 133 00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:08.759 no matter how fit you are. Once you reach sixty, 134 00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:13.319 the aging begins. But what's comforting in the research and 135 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.040 by the time you're sixty five, your rapid aging has 136 00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:17.800 pretty much stopped and now you're just going to age 137 00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:19.480 at a normal pace for the rest of your life, 138 00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:23.120 which you know, I guess is comforting. But how many 139 00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:26.879 of you have noticed at forty four and sixty that 140 00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:30.560 you you're aging sort of accelerated. And they talk about 141 00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:33.000 your mother, they say, this is when the Alzheimer's begins. 142 00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:37.200 Right now at sixty sixty one, if you're gonna get it. 143 00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:40.000 You're gonna start getting it now. The mall although they 144 00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:44.320 just did some miraculous research and they found out that 145 00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:49.759 they can reactivate the brain's cleansing system. Part of Alzheimer's. 146 00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:52.200 Part of the problem is our brain doesn't get rid 147 00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:55.120 of the proteins as much as it could, you know, 148 00:08:55.200 --> 00:08:57.639 as it used to, and so they gather up those 149 00:08:57.679 --> 00:09:02.879 proteins and cause those Louis body syndromes and other things 150 00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:06.000 in your brain that give you the Alzheimer's. Well, they 151 00:09:06.120 --> 00:09:09.960 found thanks to mice, they found that there is a 152 00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:13.720 way to reactivate that system in the brain and have 153 00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:17.559 it clear out those proteins like it was thirty And 154 00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:19.759 I can't wait to see where that research goes, and 155 00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:22.759 hopefully it will help people with Alzheimer's down the line. 156 00:09:23.879 --> 00:09:25.600 And as you age, do you have a big fear 157 00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:28.759 or are you just like, whatever happens happens, I can't 158 00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:30.559 control it. I ain't gonna worry about it till the 159 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:33.440 kids here because there's that school of there are those 160 00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:36.919 people who are like, look, something's gonna come along, something's 161 00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:40.080 gonna happen. I'm not gonna worry about it right now. 162 00:09:40.600 --> 00:09:42.720 I'm not gonna worry about it till it happens. And 163 00:09:42.759 --> 00:09:47.440 then there's people and you know who you are, who 164 00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:48.919 are like, oh my god, what if I get this? 165 00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:52.679 Or my biggest fear is Alzheimer's. It is even more 166 00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:56.000 than cancer. My biggest fear is Alzheimer's. I would hate 167 00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:58.840 to not remember my life. I would hate I've had 168 00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.000 such a life, but you know, I would hate to 169 00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.320 not remember it, right, miss m I never want to 170 00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:06.000 forget you, little girl, and I would hate to not 171 00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:08.279 you know, I just Alzheimer's. You know, what's your biggest 172 00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:10.559 fear of aging? Mine? And I don't mean dying. What 173 00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:13.320 is your biggest fear? Mine is Alzheimer's followed by cancer? 174 00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.039 Those are my two biggest Like ugh, you know? And 175 00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:22.039 a cast member from SNL, which one, oh Victoria Jackson. 176 00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:24.679 She announced today that her breast cancer came back and 177 00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:27.519 there's a tumor near her windpipe and she's got like 178 00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:31.399 thirty months to live and she's only sixty five, so 179 00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:35.279 she'll make like almost seventy which you know she's saying 180 00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:38.679 is a good life, but seventy is young. Barber's eighty 181 00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:42.720 two share seventy eight going on a tour. So what 182 00:10:42.799 --> 00:10:46.279 is your biggest fear about aging? For me myself, it's 183 00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:49.200 Alzheimer's in cancer, and the other biggest fear is everybody 184 00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:52.799 dying around me. I'm so tired of people my age 185 00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:57.320 younger just dying, you know. I that happened to me 186 00:10:57.440 --> 00:11:00.320 during AIDS and all my friends died, And now all 187 00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:03.799 my friends are dying because they're old. So yeah, forty 188 00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:07.000 four and sixty that's when we age the most. So 189 00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:08.720 what do y'all think about that? I'd love to hear 190 00:11:08.759 --> 00:11:11.639 your comments down below at YouTube YouTube dot com forward 191 00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:15.240 slash really correl. My friend Tyler has just texted me 192 00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:17.519 and said, how did the surgeon go? My friends are 193 00:11:17.559 --> 00:11:20.159 so fabulous and I know so many of you are wondering. 194 00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:23.600 And the surgeon one as I expected. She felt it said, 195 00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:25.679 I think it's a lipoma. Let's get some images and 196 00:11:25.720 --> 00:11:29.080 see that. That's what I expected. They did say they 197 00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:31.519 could do a biopsy at another facility, could go in 198 00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:34.039 with a needle, but she said, given it size, it's 199 00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:37.159 like the size of a pee. I'm feeling it right now. 200 00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:41.120 She said, given it size, that let's image it first. 201 00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:44.679 So forty four and sixty, that's when you know. The 202 00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:47.519 other big fear of mine is aging alone. I know 203 00:11:47.600 --> 00:11:50.399 I have a lot of friends, but I really want 204 00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:52.840 to find someone special to grow older with. I really, 205 00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:55.360 do you know other than miss Ember who's right here 206 00:11:55.399 --> 00:12:00.960 by my side, always by my side. Oh, she's aging, 207 00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:04.320 she's so gray. She's gonna be nine in November. It 208 00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:06.360 just kills me to I mean, she's such a cute 209 00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:09.080 little lady. She is, she's becoming a cute little lady 210 00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:13.159 and just adorable. But you know, I mean, she's nine, 211 00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:16.600 so best case scenario, we got like six or seven years, 212 00:12:17.200 --> 00:12:20.320 which is a lifetime, so I'll take it. So what 213 00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:22.399 about you, if you're over sixty, what did you notice 214 00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:26.720 around sixty that just started going I just like just 215 00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:30.600 started going south? What was it? I'd love to hear 216 00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:35.440 your comments down below. All right, we'll save the Kamala 217 00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:38.080 topic about the economy till the next segment. What else 218 00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:40.320 do we want to talk about today? Oh? The online 219 00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:42.879 vet kerfuffle now member is right here next to me, 220 00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:44.840 and I love an adore her more than life as 221 00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:48.840 you know. And I have nationwide pet insurance and online 222 00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:51.200 a woman posted that she had to put her dog 223 00:12:51.279 --> 00:12:53.840 down because she couldn't afford the three thousand dollars for 224 00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:58.320 the procedure. I hate to hear that kind of stuff. 225 00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:01.679 It has happened to me in the past. My parents 226 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:05.759 have either surrendered dogs or put a dog down because 227 00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:08.120 they simply did not have the money for the VET bill. 228 00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:12.320 That should be illegal. Every veterinarian should set you up 229 00:13:12.360 --> 00:13:15.440 on a sliding scale or a payment. Not this true panion, 230 00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:19.600 not this care credit that rapes you. But VET offices 231 00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:22.759 themselves because they are in the business of saving lives. 232 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:26.399 But you know they do have loans of their own 233 00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:28.440 and rent to pay and all of that. But I 234 00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:31.159 just if I were a VET, I could not put 235 00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:33.840 down an animal that I know I could save. Now. 236 00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:36.519 I did find out later that this woman was offered 237 00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:39.399 to surrender her dog to the VET, and the VET 238 00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:42.120 would have saved its life. But then I thought, well, 239 00:13:42.759 --> 00:13:45.080 if she surrenders it and you save its life, that 240 00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:47.840 just give it back to her then, and you know 241 00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:51.519 online there may be details missing. But I said that 242 00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:54.240 that's very horrible. I'm sorry that that happened to you, 243 00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:57.919 And perhaps if you get a pet in the future, 244 00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:01.559 you should get it insured and get a credit card. 245 00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:04.840 That's just for the pet. And that way, if a 246 00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:08.440 catastrophic illness happens, you can charge it on the card 247 00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:10.440 like I have one for Ember with a twelve thousand 248 00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:13.240 dollars limit that I never use. You can charge it 249 00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:17.559 on the card or the insurance will reimburse you. And 250 00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:21.320 I got so many haters saying, first of all, pet 251 00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:23.320 insurance is not worth it. It is worth it. I 252 00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:26.200 don't care what anyone tells you. Pet insurance is worth it. 253 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:28.519 Trust me, I have it, I use it. It's worth it. 254 00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:31.720 Second of all, you know we can't just apply for 255 00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:35.039 a credit card and get that kind of limit. Well, 256 00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:40.559 then maybe you shouldn't have a pet. What are your thoughts? 257 00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:46.000 If you can't afford expensive desk care, should you have 258 00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:50.519 a pet? What are your thoughts? Because nowadays I don't 259 00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:54.679 think we should. I don't just like a child. But 260 00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:56.360 then I would be in the will here And I'd 261 00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:58.320 like to take a moment to thank all the patrons 262 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.320 ad Patreon your support.

Thanks for almost thirty years of 277 00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:50.159 support to the loudest, craziest, most unhinged gay guy and 278 00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:52.480 his little dog. And let's keep the party going as 279 00:15:52.480 --> 00:16:09.440 long as we can. All right, we are back stretching 280 00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:12.240 a little. You know, I touched on something before the break. 281 00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.360 I'm glad I'm here, and I you know, and I'm 282 00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:17.840 glad my sister's here. But my parents couldn't afford us. 283 00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:22.360 They struggled their whole life, and subsequently we struggled shopping 284 00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:25.440 at thrift stores for school stuff. So we were picked 285 00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:27.720 on by other kids having to go to the free 286 00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:30.919 lunch line, so picked on by other kids. You know, 287 00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:34.200 I felt the stigma growing up of being poor. But 288 00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:36.720 it was a good thing because I'm not rich now, 289 00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:39.799 although I'm very rich. I have a studio here at 290 00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:42.200 my home, I have my dog, I have food in 291 00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:44.399 my stomach, my mortgage is paid well, I don't have 292 00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.879 a mortgage. I'm very rich. I'm just not flush in 293 00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:52.600 the bank. But that being said, I'm glad i'm here, 294 00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:55.159 and I'm glad my sister is here. But my parents 295 00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:58.240 shouldn't have had us. They could not afford us. And 296 00:16:58.320 --> 00:17:00.919 so when I talk about a pet, my whole life, 297 00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:03.440 we've had pets. Could we afford them? No? And did 298 00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:05.680 we actually have to put some down because of the 299 00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:09.319 vet bills? Yes? Was that fair to the animal? No? 300 00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:13.359 And you know, maybe, as we talked about aging earlier, 301 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:16.039 maybe as you age you see things differently. You're not 302 00:17:16.119 --> 00:17:21.039 as idealistic, perhaps you're more realistic. And to me, if 303 00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:24.799 you can't have a savings account of a couple thousand dollars, 304 00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:28.119 or have a credit card that's got at least a 305 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:31.559 two or three thousand dollars limit on it, or afford 306 00:17:31.599 --> 00:17:33.799 the eighty to one hundred and fifty dollars a month 307 00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:36.799 that pet insurance is going to be. Then it just 308 00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:40.400 isn't fair to the animal to get the animal because 309 00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:45.160 those expenses are going to happen. There will be something 310 00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:47.200 that comes up with your dog or your cat or 311 00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:49.839 your gerbil or whatever, where the bill's going to be 312 00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:52.880 fifteen hundred or twenty five hundred. It's going to happen. 313 00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:55.519 I'm telling you, I've never had a pet where it 314 00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:59.119 didn't happen. It's going to happen. They're going to need 315 00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:01.440 an X ray or an ultrasound, or they're gonna need 316 00:18:01.480 --> 00:18:05.119 some procedure. Ember needs to have a lipoma taken out. 317 00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:08.920 Surprisingly I have one. She has one. Hers is covered 318 00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:11.440 by insurance, but I have to pay up front and 319 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:14.160 it will probably be a fifteen hundred dollars or deal. 320 00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:17.799 Teeth cleaning every year for a dog or a cat 321 00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:20.839 is a thousand dollars. That's about eighty bucks a month, 322 00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:23.839 you know, but you have to have their teeth cleans. 323 00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:26.480 You can't not you have to do it. I hate 324 00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:30.000 the anesthetic part. She's only done it twice in eight years. 325 00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:32.000 I've only done it. But I brush her teeth every day, 326 00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:34.759 and they're beautiful, but still they do get a little 327 00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:36.799 yellow sometimes and then she has to go in and 328 00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:40.240 she's due for another one now, and that's a thousand dollars. 329 00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:45.200 And so you know, pet ownership her food every month. 330 00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:48.119 You know, I spend probably one hundred and fifty or 331 00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:51.079 two hundred bucks a month on her food, on the 332 00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:54.200 meat for her food, the vegetables, the oats, and then 333 00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:57.359 the urinary track diet. She has bladderstone, she might have 334 00:18:57.440 --> 00:18:59.799 to have those taken out one day. That would be 335 00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:03.960 like eight or nine hundred dollars. So if you can't 336 00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:07.480 afford that, it's not fair to the animal to have 337 00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:11.279 the animal. But the shelters are full here in Las Vegas. 338 00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:13.880 Our Animal Rescue Foundation, they took in one hundred and 339 00:19:13.920 --> 00:19:19.839 forty three dogs yesterday. Yesterday, they now have over five 340 00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:23.799 hundred dogs living in horrible conditions, cages, living in the 341 00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:27.640 corners of rooms. They need fosters desperately. If you're in 342 00:19:27.720 --> 00:19:30.359 Las Vegas, or if you're someone that can foster a 343 00:19:30.359 --> 00:19:32.440 pet and would love to drive out to Vegas, we 344 00:19:32.519 --> 00:19:37.880 have five hundred dogs in our Animal Foundation needing fosters, 345 00:19:38.640 --> 00:19:40.680 and so i'd love for everyone to have a dog, 346 00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:44.200 and I think that every veterinary clinic could be sliding scale. 347 00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:47.680 If I were Oprah, if I were Mars Incorporated that 348 00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:52.720 owns VCA Animal Hospital, I would institute a sliding scale 349 00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:56.799 for people who are lower income because they should be 350 00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:59.559 able to have a pet just like everybody else, but 351 00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:02.039 they and they should also be able to care for it. 352 00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:05.000 But see, we don't even do that for people. There 353 00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:07.440 are so many people that can't get the medical care 354 00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:13.200 they need because it's just unaffordable. Look at ozepic. We're 355 00:20:13.240 --> 00:20:16.319 being told it's the wonder drug, and we know that 356 00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:19.559 it battles obesity, and that by getting rid of the obesity, 357 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:23.799 so many other medical problems go away, like diabetes and 358 00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:27.000 just a host of others. And yet insurance will not 359 00:20:27.160 --> 00:20:31.839 cover it for anything but diabetes. But if you lost weight, 360 00:20:31.920 --> 00:20:35.079 it would cure the diabetes in many cases, So why 361 00:20:35.079 --> 00:20:39.480 don't they cover it for weight loss. Zep Bound which 362 00:20:39.559 --> 00:20:42.960 is one of those drugs. They're using it for sleep apnea, 363 00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:46.000 which I go in September third for an overnight sleep test. 364 00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:49.240 They're using it and it's helping people with sleep apnea 365 00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:51.920 because they lose weight and by lose and I could 366 00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:55.400 lose twenty thirty pounds and they lose weight, well twenty 367 00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:59.640 they lose weight and it helps, So why aren't they 368 00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:03.519 covering it? So we as people go through this problem ourselves, 369 00:21:04.839 --> 00:21:07.480 and so for animals there's just no hope. And now 370 00:21:07.519 --> 00:21:11.799 that there's these corporations, Elizabeth Warren is actually trying to 371 00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:16.960 fight the takeover of veterinary clinics by private equity firms 372 00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:21.319 and like Mars who owns VCA Animal Hospitals and several 373 00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:25.480 other chains Bandfield Animal Hospitals, so one company is owning 374 00:21:25.640 --> 00:21:29.000 like oh, she's trying to fight that because they're price fixing, 375 00:21:29.039 --> 00:21:33.640 their price gouging, and so it's a two you know, 376 00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:36.160 it's a very thin line for me. I feel everyone 377 00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:38.920 would benefit from a pet, and God knows, there's so 378 00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:42.400 many pets that need homes. But at the same time, 379 00:21:43.039 --> 00:21:45.559 if you're broke, which is when you need a pet 380 00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:48.839 something to love, it's not fair because we don't have 381 00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:52.920 the infrastructure to care for the pet if it gets sick. 382 00:21:53.200 --> 00:21:56.640 We don't have. In some cities there are SpCas and 383 00:21:56.880 --> 00:21:59.279 low cost pet clinics, but they just do the basics. 384 00:21:59.279 --> 00:22:02.480 And God blessed but if they needed more than a 385 00:22:02.519 --> 00:22:05.160 spay or neuter or checkup, if they need a surgery, 386 00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:09.359 if they don't do that, and there should be pet 387 00:22:09.400 --> 00:22:12.440 clinics that go on sliding scales, But until there are, 388 00:22:13.559 --> 00:22:16.240 is it fair to a pet or a child to 389 00:22:16.319 --> 00:22:18.359 bring them in the world if you can't afford them. 390 00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:21.920 You know, again, I'm glad I'm here, but my parents 391 00:22:21.960 --> 00:22:25.599 could not afford me, and they struggled their whole life 392 00:22:25.759 --> 00:22:29.799 because of me, because they had to put food on 393 00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:32.920 the table and a roof overhead, and they struggled to 394 00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:36.680 do that. And I caused that because they couldn't afford me. 395 00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:40.160 And so it's the same with an animal. You know. 396 00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:42.640 I am so blessed that I have a credit card 397 00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:46.240 that any emergency could handle Forember, and that she's insured, 398 00:22:46.559 --> 00:22:49.000 and that it's a good insurance company that actually pays 399 00:22:49.000 --> 00:22:53.440 for things if I didn't have that. But this goes 400 00:22:53.480 --> 00:22:55.839 to what Kamala Harris is saying today in her speech 401 00:22:55.880 --> 00:22:59.519
