The Doctor and The Stud

The following podcast is a Dear Media production. Five stars, what are you nuts? What are you nuts? Yeah, we're the good guys.
We're not the great guys. We're just the good, the good, the good guys.
Benjamin, how the hell are you? I'm splendid, Josh. I want you to know that yesterday, or two days ago, I went golfing.
The second that you see that it ticks over 40 degrees, you start to think about it in New York because we're sick. Okay.
We're deprived of good weather. I know California, you and your father-in-law, you get to hit the links whenever you want because it's gorgeous.
But over here, you know, we only have a certain golf season. So I was going to be 46 degrees.
We went out there breezing. I shot the round of my life.
I don't know if this means anything to you. I shot an 81.
That's huge. I had a chance to break 80.
And it was the round of my life. And I'm trying to figure out, was it because I was cold, Josh? Yes.
Was I more focused on the weather than I was on the actual game? And as a result, I was more relaxed when I was playing. What was the par for the course? The par was a 72.
Nice. 6,600 yards.
So it was unbelievable i played so well and yeah so how am i i'm freaking great i'm excellent and now today josh it's 55 degrees this whole week it's supposed to be mid to high 50s and all i know is that the groundhog saw his shadow but i don't think it means dick doesn't mean dick. Who came up with these fables? I have no idea.
I have no idea. I have no idea.
No. If the groundhog sees his shadow, it means more winter.
What are you, nuts? That's what are you, nuts. Total what are you, nuts.
Like, spare me. You know money's going into that.
At the very least, the gas that it takes for the news crews to get there. They're wasting it on that.
They love it. They love that story, too.
They love all showing up, watching Chuck, who rest in peace. We all know, dropped by de Blasio, the OG Chuck.
De Blasio was holding him. He dropped him, suffered internal bleeding and died the next week.
OK, but in general, this is a nuts practice. Nuts.
I actually can't think of anything in modern times that is as crazy as us legitimizing that if a groundhog sees his shadow, it means there's more winter. Yeah, dude.
Cause you know, there've been guys who've been like, Hey, is it groundhog day? Yeah. He see his shadow.
He did like that. like yeah absolutely absolutely to this day is there can you think of something that we do that's equally as nuts as a society i really i can't just so we tell our kids there's something called santa claus but other than that i guess that's true too yeah santa easter bunny and santa yeah what's up with that i was gonna say there's no jew mysticism like that except we do kind of say that that a guy parted the seas yeah no that would be the mysticism for sure yeah like who knows if that really happened who knows yeah and the that we managed to have one night of oil last for eight nights what are are you nuts? There's a fictitious amount of oil.

There was an ark.

Or there's a short, specific amount of oil,

not fictitious.

Yeah, an ark, Noah's Ark.

You never know.

So many.

You never know.

First of all, that Moses was in a basket in the Nile.

I don't care how tight that wicker was.

It's letting in some water.

No.

By the way, this, this, Josh, is as what are you nuts? As Groundhog. We've reached it.
A wicker basket does not float. Okay? A wicker basket sinks.
This podcast sucks. How, Josh? How? It doesn't.
It doesn't. I'm sure that there's some archaeologists who say they sealed it with wax.
No, she didn't. No, no.
Please. No, there was no wax.
She made a game time decision. She's like, they're coming and dumped him.
She had time to make a wax wicker basket that 100% doesn't allow water in from the Nile. Nope.
Here's another one. Here's another fun one that we never think about.
Jesus, born of immaculate conception to the wonderful Virgin Mary. Shout out.
You don't think he had some weirdness with Joseph, his stepdad? Probably. You don't think that got weird? It probably did, Josh.
Joseph's like, hey, you know, pick up your clothes on the floor.

And Jesus goes, my father's God.

Yeah, yeah.

You bossing me around, Joe?

Complex, absolutely.

Yeah, you think you're not my real dad.

My real dad is God.

My real dad is God, Joe.

You know, save it, Joe.

Save it, Joe.

Oh, I'm going to go tend to the lambs.

It's enough, Joe.

My dad is God. He knocked up your wife without touching her, loser.
Honestly, such an invasion of privacy, be knocked up by God without his permission. Totally.
Like, God was the original Me Too. That's insane.
God was the original Me Too. god was the original me too he was the original me too like totally yeah like mary's just like chilling she's like honestly probably like pumped like she's she's it like come to terms she can't have kids she's thinking about all the things that she'll do as a single woman.
All of a sudden, she looks down. She's pregnant.
How?

How?

Yes.

Totally.

Wait, did Mary not have other children other than Jesus?

I don't know.

I think she did.

That's Old Testament.

I think that Mary's new.

Mary's new.

Mary's new, but I still, I think the whole thing was that she was barren.

I don't think she could have kids. then she magically had jesus wow wow i love it man this podcast is like we are fully evolved and oh yeah we just offer we offer hot takes god takes all the takes we offer something for everyone i wish i knew just like a a little bit more about Buddhism, a little bit more.
I'd love to be able to opine on Buddhism because I really am very into, as you know, my Eastern side, Eastern medicine. I'm there.
I'm there, Josh. I found out about these new pressure points that I told you about with the hand.
I'm all in on Eastern. And I just think that,

or I have been told that the connection between Eastern and Buddhism is right there. And that if I wanted to find that, I also heard that Kabbalah, Josh, has a lot of that.
What do you think about leaning into Kabbalah? I just think it's funny that on any given week, on any given Monday, you're injecting yourself with Ozepic going, I'm really into Chinese medicine. Josh, I'm all over the place.

I'll try Eastern.

I'll try eastern i'll try western i'll try anything i like southern medicine i mean it's called a tablespoon of mayonnaise the new show from bravo it's southern medicine don't feel good have's. Yes.
A spoonful of Hellmann's makes the medicine go down. A quick crab rangoon.
Can you imagine that's the new Craig Conover spinoff? Southern Medicine? We find him a new beau. She's like this Alabamian ER doctor.
I'm gonna blow your mind, Josh southern medicine is starring both craig conover's that's it they're both in south carolina i can't believe they haven't run into each other the doctor and the stud southern medicine so good dude dr craig by the way dr craig conover i don't know'm looking, bro, but I am on a full injection of peptides daily and I feel nuts. You're looking good.
You're looking really strong, like huge. I'm on peptides, babe.
I'm on Ipamorella. Talk to me about it.
I want to know about it. Tell us.
So peptides are, they basically are, I don't know, but, you know. Another Joey Camaster recommendation.
Peptides are agonists, right? And so the ones that I'm on are like human growth hormone agonists. So instead of taking something artificial, like, you know, a horse's dose of testosterone or human growth hormone, right, which is a pharmaceutical that's flooding your body with so much more than it could ever make naturally.
But of course you get those incredible gains that you wouldn't find in sort of the natural universe. Peptides are these amino acids that basically signal to your body, make a little bit more, upregulate your human growth hormone naturally.
So your body's making it. Now, I guess sort of like the discussion or, you know, the debate would be, didn't your body downregulate all that stuff for a reason? Like you're 38, you're fully grown.
Maybe you don't need that much in your system anymore. To which I say, get over it, get over yourself.
So I feel good like Like my aches and pains. I feel like I'm getting, you know, in better shape.
It's kind of nice. I mean, you look fantastic.
And it just sounds like your guys were working an eight hour shift. Now they're working 10.
They'll be fine. They'll be fine.
There's no burnout. No, they'll be fine.
As long as you're not taking like an insane amount i think it's perfect i love it then tell me about your your cooking videos and kind of how you've been using your galaxy s25 ultra for that i mean they've completely changed the game for me i don't know if people know because they just see a perfectly edited video they're like ben how'd, how'd you do that? How'd you make a perfectly edited video?

45 to 90 seconds.

I'm recording on now my Galaxy S25 Ultra from Samsung.

And, you know, I like to take some ASMR, Josh.

Maybe a nice chop.

People love that.

A nice sizzle when you drop a nice sirloin in a hot pan.

Yeah, if you're burning a dumpling.

Sorry, I didn't mean to.

Sorry, excuse me.

No, it looked good. It looked good.
That was pre-Samsung when i used to burn things now with the new samsung i don't burn anything okay and but you know you have this perfect asmr moment and all of a sudden romeo woof woof woof or even claudia ben can you get me an apple like no i'm cooking honey i'm cooking okay and all you have to do, Josh, with this new beautiful phone, audio erase.

They literally use AI in their audio eraser to get rid of unwanted sounds.

Poof, they're gone.

It's like magic.

Yeah, the audio eraser with Galaxy AI, it just, it makes your life so much better because it's, you know, the resolution is 8K, right?

So the video is beautiful.

But have you ever been filming something and all of a sudden you just feel wind and you go, here it is, you know?

It's a if the sound is off, it ruins a video. And now you have a tool.
And I think that's the game changer. They care about creators, Josh.
That's what it is. They care.
Well, look, I think it's important that we say that you can get your Galaxy S25 Ultra right now, not later, now at Samsung.com. Audio Eraser is compatible with common video formats accessible in gallery, helps minimize sick select sounds.
Results vary. Galaxy AI features buy Samsung free through 2025 and require Samsung account login.

And this is coming off of Theo, who used to sleep in bed with us. He was crate trained until one, but then Theo was really sleeping in bed with us for six years.
And Josh, Romeo had his first full night's sleep in our bed two nights ago. I woke up my back.
I was in so much pain because he slept in my legs. He slept in my arms.
I didn't want to crush him. Claudia has a pregnancy pillow.
I'm in the top corner. I had no room.
And then I realized, were my aches and pains coming from sleeping with my dog? Because I have felt physically significantly better since Theo's passing. I thought about this.
And I think it's because I'm sleeping without a dog. It's very hard to sleep with both a woman and a pregnancy pillow and a pooch.
Because it's unacceptable to have a dog in your bed. Yeah, I think so.
You can't do it anymore. I can't do it.
I love it too. I love them.
I love them so much. but it's unacceptable to have a dog in your bed yeah i think so you can't do it anymore i can't do it i love it too i love them i love them so much but it's not worth it it's not worth my sleep quality it's not worth it it's unacceptable yeah it's not worth it it's not worth it it's easy for one partner because the dog only sleeps with one partner so the other one's like oh it's i had the best night's sleep he's so cute it's great it's like yeah he's he's literally tangled in my legs right so yeah he said aches and pains and not only that it's like do you wash their paws after you go out i do every time yeah yeah we do we do he has really clean feet really clean feet groomed a ton he's clean i feel good about his cleanliness that said you could still track in some dirt from the streets it's definitely cleaner for him to sleep separately absolutely but the real straw that broke the camel's back if i'm not sleeping well josh it's kaput keep the animals out of the bed including the children yes they don't belong in the bed i'm not kidding i like yeah tell me look every different strokes different folks stay out of our comments people if you do it if you do a co-sleep situation god bless you i'm glad it works for you what do you mean a co-sleep like people do that more than once in a while oh yeah Full time.
What do you mean a co-sleep? Like people do that more than once in a while? Oh yeah. Full time.
What do you mean people? How old? We have couples in our life that refuse to allow their children to cry ever. And thus the only time the kid can sleep is either on the mom or like babies.
And so first of all, everyone advises against having your baby in bed because you could fall asleep too and roll over on them so that's such a bad idea their babies are sleeping in bed with them some people do it it's this is this is insane they can't even keep their own bodies up not only are you going to suffocate them they're going to suffocate themselves yeah how hate that. Flood the comments.
You're wrong. And some people just feel like also that, you know, when you get to that age at four months old, they no longer need to eat every three hours.
They can do a eight or a 10 hour stretch without eating. And so that's usually when sleep training comes in because they actually are okay doing a really long stretch if they take like a power bottle before they go to bed.
And my wife, and it's just what's worked for us and all families are wonderful and different. We sort of, with the help of our pediatrician, she was like, if you do it now, it's going to be a horrible three days because you're going to feel bad and you want the baby to be okay.
But she's like, the baby will then be sleeping 10 to 12 hour stretches and be in such a good mood. It'll be good for their health.
They'll just feel so good having this great sleep. So if you can, and if your baby reveals that it's right for them, I would suggest it.
And we did. And it's been wonderful.
Yeah. I think it's tough, but you got to do it.

You got to do it.

And of course, I would assume after a very long period of time, you go in to make sure nothing's wrong.

Of course.

But like, yeah, it's called letting the baby cry out.

Is that what, that's what it is, right?

That's always a controversy, right?

There's a lot of schools of thought now of like, you don't let them cry it out.

There, you know, if they could be talking to you, they'd be saying why.

I was like, yeah, because I thought they were saying, thank you. Yeah, of course.
But you obviously go through a checklist. You're like, OK, do they need their diaper changed? OK, do they have a gas bubble? Do they need to be burped? OK, do they lose their pacifier or whatever it may be? But then after your checklist, if they're just crying, they probably miss you.
But in the end of the day, you need them to sleep. They need to sleep.
We have friends going through it right now. My wife's wonderful longtime family friends, and they have the wonderful their daughter, Jonah, so cute.
And, you know, it was just Jonah's about six months old. And I think they were getting to that point of like, we want to do it.
But of course it's hard for parents to let their kids cry a little. And my wife was literally like, give it 10 minutes.
See if you can tub it out for 10 minutes. And they were like, at 9 minutes 30, we were like, that's it.
We're never doing this again. Paige is nuts.
And at 10 minutes, one second, she fell asleep. Like, and look, sometimes it can be 40 minutes and that stinks.
But I think there's also a thing with your child where you become very keyed into their cries and they have different cries. And you can tell, like, I can tell when my little guy, like when he's putting on a Daniel Day-Lewis, Timothee Chalamet caliber show for us.
And I'm like, those are some gorgeous tears. Well done.
Like you're a better actor than your father and it ain't hard. And then other times he'll cry for a second and you'll blaze in because you'll be like, nope, that's different.
You just know. You just know.
You just know. And I know everybody's going to come in the comments.
Don't relate your dog to a kid. Crate training a dog is an emotional process.
You do have to let them cry for a significant period of time. I'm not saying it's the same thing.
I'm not saying it's apples to apples. But once you get through the crate training process and then they're sleeping, they're sleeping better and they're no longer crying.
It has to be slightly similar. it's totally similar and i just think people need to just whatever works for them is great but the reality is i told you my friend luca shout out luca i hope you're listening he has an unacceptable dog he has a 90 pound giant golden whatever the hell and duncan named after duncan donuts shout out nice name duncan is a nice dog who still has his balls and humps me all day every day when i'm over at the house the dog is completely untrained and it's 90 pounds it's an unacceptable dog i don't go over i'm not coming over luca you can't make me.
You have to train these dogs. You have to.
Unacceptable. We have a neighbor, awful neighbor, Josh, that recently moved in.
They have two wiener dogs. These dogs don't shut the fuck up.
You hear a doorbell rings. Our doorbell rings.
I hear through the walls their dog. Awful, awful dogs.
Like, yap yap yap yap non-stop if you can't have a dog don't horrible don't have a dog horrible and neuter your dogs it's not right unless you live in montana it's just you and the dog if you live in the city you have to neuter your Otherwise, it's like Jesus. It's like Mary, Josh.
All of a sudden, your pooch is going to come home. She's pregnant.
Yes. Not right.
Like Bob Barker said, get your dog spayed and neutered. I think that's cats.

Doctor, this is perfect for you.
You love holistic. I'm in.
I'm going to add them to my list. Dr.
Taz Bhatia, a board certified integrative medicine physician based in Atlanta, recently shared the items that she says mimic Ozempempic wagovi munjaro and munjaro okay the first one is foods high in mct oil omega-3 fats and omega-9 fats so mct oil it's coconut oil coconut oil believe me josh i've been on the mct oil grind in my keto season days yeah i was i was putting that shit in my coffee of course gotta you he loves a health trend next one is berries berries berry sanders berries they can reduce inflammation and improve the overall oxidation of the body and there's a lot of fiber fiber. But they're not stopping you from eating.
What the hell kind of crock is this? Eat berries. That doesn't have the same effect as Ozempic.
Hear me out. Chia seeds.
Number three, chia seeds. They've got lots of fiber and healthy fats.
This is a crock. I'm sorry, Dr.
Bhatia. It's ridiculous.
I'm sorry. And I liked you, Dr.
Bhatia, too. I liked your name.
I trusted you. And now I don't trust you anymore.
Like chia seeds. I probably hold the record for the most chia seed pudding eaten in one sitting.
I love chia seed pudding. Same here.
Do we have a chia sponsor? No, we don't. I love chia.
I'm in. I'm in.
But it certainly does not stop you from wanting to eat i want to eat more chia

and it's so calorically dense it's awful awful not good not good something delicious josh last night i get a text from my dad hey i just dropped off a quart container of rice pudding at your doorman what a sweet man we're gonna call your dad oydash he actually he wrote i just dropped off a quirk container of rice pudding and a couple of bangladeshi treats bangladeshi treats bangladesh cookies yum what are they like are they like pistachio no No, they were like- Jasmine, honey, rose water?

It's moldy. Benjamin, it's your father.
It's Oydash here. I'm outside.
Give me five stars. Hey-o.
Oydash. It's a great name for a Jewish DoorDash.
I've included a smaller container for your doorman, Jesus. He's hysterical.
He's never had anything like this. I said it's like paella, but Jewish.
He didn't understand. How good is rice pudding? Oh, Beyond Cozy Shack? shack a plus there was this place in the city did you ever go to rice to riches in the village yeah yeah they they had it on an episode of girls too i think they closed down because i'm pretty sure it was mafia like it was just all it was just like a hundred percent money laundering scheme but man rice to riches oof it was like the cold stone creamery for those that don't know of rice pudding very niche very good the x-rated swinging symbol on cruises you might not know about here's how to spot it recently on the adriatic gems of the holland america line cruise ship this person learned that oh my god what kind of article is this let's just get to it oh i just i'm like where's the symbol oh my god this is like i think royal caribbean paid for this this is just like people should cruise more they probably did josh hold on you're probably reading a paid ad what is the symbol for swingers on a cruise that was definitely a paid ad and i feel hoodwinked what is it oh it's like a banana or something upside down pineapple displayed on the cabandar yeah yeah yeah that's what it is upside down pineapple i mean how is that not like a rom-com with vince vaughn like swingers hook up the first night on a cruise it goes poorly and now they have 13 more nights together on the same cruise it's that i'm in i'm all's, I mean, that's a layup.

Well, I'm cougar swapping toy boys with my friends.

Men my age have too much baggage and are bad in bed.

God bless you, New York Post.

This cougar is sharpening her claws.

I added that.

After seven years and dating dud dudes her own age,

Haley Hooper, 38. Wait, 38-year-olds are cougars? Fuck.
I'm old. She's setting her sights on fellas who are a little younger.
Guys my age don't want anything fun. The part-time nurse and part-time stripper complained.
That's balance. All they want is some kind of stepmom for their kids.
they always bring along baggage from being from being with their ex-wives she further moaned more often than not though they're just so judgmental yeah they're hooking up with 21 year olds who they said had to save up for dinner but it was worth it when it got to the bedroom oh my whoa dirty birdies i will say josh 38 not a cougar no right no and a 38 year old on a 21 year old is what we call a predator no is that not predatory yes i'm sorry i was trying to understand yeah i mean it is i don't know maybe it's a double standard. I think it's a double standard.
I think 21 is way too young. It is.
Way too young. It would be so different if it was 50, even 50 and 25.
I feel 100 times better than 38 and 21. Would you agree? Olivia? I think there's just so much that happens in like the first half of your 20s.

It's like a really transformative period. And a lot of life lessons are learned during that time.

And like, I don't know, when I was 21, I was like a junior in college, like, you know,

maybe like nearing graduation, but not quite.

So like, I don't know, you're just still in like a totally different headspace.

So it feels kind of weird.

I would even be more comfortable with like 24, 23.

But like 21 just feels like you're literally you just are now allowed to have a drink in a bar legally you're a baby yeah baby like it's even if you like i just it's too young it's too young you need to be able to make your own mistakes and like learn and live your own life and not yeah it's too young yeah i think it's too I agree. And no, I totally hear and understand and agree with you guys.

I guess like my brain goes to like, wow, like 21-year-old boys are such idiot knuckleheads

that like an older woman could really like teach them some important lessons.

But of course, just using them physically, that's where the double standard comes in.

And I don't think that's cool at all.

Look, good for the boys. I'm not saying it's not great.
Like it's good for them. It's just 21 year old boys might as well be 15.

You're not cleaning anything. It doesn't make any sense.
It doesn't make any sense. Okay, so moving on past that, you need to get wipes.
Now you got to think to yourself, what wipes do I want? Perhaps you want premium wipes, wipes that elevate your everyday hygiene, maybe some wipes that are infused with soothing botanicals like aloe, vitamin E, and chamomile. Is that something you might be interested in?

How gorgeous is that? Super soft, so much better than other wipes, actually flushable, okay? No more plunger. Well, maybe you need a plunger for another reason, but it's never going to be because of your wipes.

Should we get to a SpeakPipe?

Yeah.

If you want any advice, if you want to ask us questions, keep it brief. Brevity is key and go to speakpipe.com slash goodguys.
Here's one from anonymous. Hey, Josh and Ben.
I'm one of your three non-Jewish listeners. And anyway, I need some advice.
I'm giving and taking criticism because my husband and I recently got married and neither one of us is good at giving or taking criticism. And criticism is a strong word because sometimes it's just like, hey, this little thing you did kind of hurt my feelings.
And we both end up crying. So what can we do to give and take criticism better in our marriage? Thanks.
Love you. Bye.
We didn't even get an example. I know, but they're apparently crying over their criticisms.
Okay. Well, if it's worth, if it's going to make you cry, like it better be worth it.
I think that's like my message. Like you're going to, especially early on in a relationship, early on in a marriage, a lot of things are going to bother you a lot.
And I think it's very important to weed out what is really important. And if it's going to make them cry, it's probably like probably not worth it.
Like I would just swallow it until it hopefully goes away. And then if it never goes away, you have bigger problems.
But I do find that the longer you're with someone, like those little things end up sort of fixing themselves as you get to know each other. I really believe in communication.
And I think if there's a way to throw things out there and let them stick and give someone, I would love to recover quickly. how i feel yeah i would love to know i've had to make my peace with that people recover at different speeds men and women are different because my whole thing is like let's like have it out and hard and full out and celebrate with a canoodle and like yeah but that's like my total is that Olivia, Is that just my total man brain? I don't know.
So you're saying like you get in. You want to just like hash it all out, put it out there.
And then you want to make up like kiss and make up. Yeah.
Like I want to dump it. Like I really want to communicate and not let it fester.
Yeah. Let's get it out now.
And then like, let's quickly move on. And like, let's make a declaration of our love.
It's like it's like us josh yes don't know josh and i got in our first little fight last week we had it out and then we had a love fest except there was no sex because we're too far away i know if we were in person though you would never know we got to make sure to fight when we're on the same coast yeah we got into got into a spat over in our group chat with Olivia. And I literally was like, Ben, take this offline.
And we did. And we had our spat and it was over.
I will say, I know Olivia hasn't answered yet. It's not gender.
It's by the person. Because my wife is the biggest.
Let's have it out and be done with it. Right.
She does not want to think about this tomorrow. And I definitely was more of a I'm going to think about this tomorrow.
And now I'm on the side. I think I've learned from her.
I'm on the side of once it's done, it's done. And it's a much more pleasant way to live.
Yeah, I agree. I don't think that it's gendered.
Ethan's definitely more like that. Like he wants to just like put it out all out on the table at once and like let's hash through it.
And I think in the past I was very much like I'm going to hold on to this until it's the perfect time to discuss it. And I'm going to overthink everything and like be very, very gentle in my approach and so on and so forth.
But I think there really is something to like a blend of it where it's like, OK, let's pick a time where we can like both kind of come to this conversation and like we're both ready to have it. But also like you can't wait too long and you can't wait because there'll never be a perfect time.
So if you can try to find, you know, a time where you're both in the right space to be able to communicate and not like blow up on each other, that's great. But, you know, life together, things happen.
And I think it's just important to like be transparent and then, yeah, you know, make

up and move on from it. Let it go the best you can.
But, or, you know, grow from it. And if it's a bigger problem, it's a bigger problem.
But that's my two cents. It's a great two cents.
And what's interesting is the people who hold on to things, I think are only hurting themselves because you're the only one thinking about it, especially if you're arguing with somebody who forgets it immediately. Like then you are the only one poisoning you with that information.
So I think that if you're with somebody that likes to fight and forget, you got to fight and forget. Yeah.
And I think it becomes habitual and you get into a good rhythm. It's like working out.
It hurts at first. But when you get good at communicating, my wife and I, we have very different ways in which we confront things and I can be too confrontational and maybe sometimes she's not enough.
And so sometimes she'll be like, why? You know, I will feel like if I don't bring it up, it just will go unsaid because, you know, she's better at just like dealing with it on her own where I feel the need to like, let's confront this. Let's have it out.
And so sometimes it will become a thing where my wife will say like, well, why am I the bad guy? Like, why is it always you bringing this up about something I did? And I'm like, because if I'm the only one bringing it up when I do, I'm not going to go, Oh, I'm so mad at me. You know what I mean? Like, yes, if I'm the only one bringing it up, it will

feel one sided. But like, please feel free to bring it up when I'm being annoying.
And if we

get into a better habit of that, then it won't fester and it won't feel as big when we finally

have it out. Yes.
Agreed. If something's bothering you, confront it.
Don't let it fester. It'll eat

away at your soul. No good.
And you know what else eats away at your soul? This next speak pipe.

Hey, Josh and Ben, long time moron and toaster. Quick question for Ben.
I am a fellow GLP-1

medication person, and I find the night before I take my shot absolutely miserable. I'm ravenous, and I want to eat quite possibly everything in sight.
Any tips to help me overcome this? Thanks. Love the pod.
To actually overcome it, take your shot earlier. This is a totally normal thing, and people do it Like if you are struggling by day seven, take it every five days.
Like it's a normal thing. You can ask your doctor, but that is recommended.
I, because I love it. I love the seventh day and I wait for it so that I can eat.
But that's why I'm probably not losing any weight because the first five days I'm losing so much weight. And then day six and day seven, I'm putting it all back on.
So really I should listen to my own advice and take the shot every five days, but take the shot earlier. It'll really help.
And it is miserable, like losing all of your progress that you worked so hard for over that last day. But I love it.
It's also a reward. I love that.
I've been having in general just like a difficult time lately after dinner which i used to have really under control i mentioned this like as a joke with nicole byer about the yogurt but i'm having far too much greek yogurt i just like the taste but i'm having too much of it this is more there's no advice to give i just need to eat eat less yogurt. It's me to me.
Eat less yogurt at night. I want to, okay, let me tell you what I ate yesterday.
And this is a perfect day of eating for me. Okay.
I woke up and around 7.30, 8 o'clock, I had a big bowl of oatmeal with the hemp seeds and the chia seeds. And I mix in like some strawberry protein.
So it a little bit of peanut butter yummy it easily a seven or eight hundred calorie bowl of oatmeal so good and I'm not hungry I don't think about food again and then it's like one o'clock and I was going home and there's this amazing Japanese market and they have a Japanese food court with a ramen stall and a tempura stall and like all these places that I love so I had a spicy tuna roll I had a like this garlic tofu bowl with rice and sauteed garlic tofu and onions some gyoza deep fried and then as I was leaving there was this bakery and they had a cream coronet the coronet i'm like that's nuts what the fuck is that and it was like a easily a 700 calorie pastry with thick rich you know like just crazy crazy. And I said, I'm going to eat this all

on my way to the car.

And I did.

And I didn't eat another thing after two o'clock.

Had a really good workout.

Didn't feel bad at all.

Felt great.

No, what you see, what you just described,

99.9% of people cannot do.

Okay, say more.

It's, I'm so unique.

If you have that Coronet at two o'clock

Thank you. 99.9% of people cannot do.
Okay. Say more.
I'm so unique. If you have that Coronet at two o'clock, you are like the normal person is ordering General Chow's chicken for dinner and they've given up on their day.
Really? Yes. And what you do great, which is the number one thing that I think keeps you fit, is that you stop eating so early.
I'm 100% sure that none of my calories count, seriously, between the hours of 12 and 5. And if I could just limit it to 12 and 5, I could have 5,000 calories a day and lose weight.
I know it. I know it for a fact, but because I eat and most people are trained to eat all the way up until they go to bed, that's where all the weight is gained.
So yeah, you eat whatever you want during the hours of seven to two, you're great. Like it's not, who cares? You had your nice sweet treat, but the fact that you didn't need to then ruin your day because of the sweet treat, that means that you just have a good relationship with food.

Cream coronet.

I need a cream coronet.

I also need cream corn.

Cream coronet?

Imagine a cream corn filled cream coronet.

So good.

That sounds amazing.

Okay, we finally figured out a business to start it closes in one day creamed cornets creamed cornets oh my god the New Jersey creamed cornets we start a basketball team okay last one from I don't know hey good guys just went through about a week ago. It was over the phone, which is fine because we live four hours apart.
So not that big of a deal. Known him for about a year.
We were dating for three months. So we were friends beforehand.
And I was always worried that the relationship was going to ruin the friendship and it did. But he said immediately when he broke up with me that he wasn't interested in being friends anymore and because he thinks that's awkward after you're in a relationship with somebody and I disagree but I didn't want to fight it and make it awkward for him trying to force a friendship but I kind of miss talking to him all the time and just telling him about like daily life stuff so is it weird if I reach out to him and ask him if he'd be interested in being friends or should I just let this fizzle out and be a thing of the past? Thanks, good guys.
This is sad. I'm torn.
I think that you're two completely different types of people. You sound like a lovely, lovely lady.
And the fact that you could just have like a nice friendship with this person means that it means a great deal about you. I think that the person you're dating is significantly less mature than you and or was significantly more in love with you in different ways than you were with him.
There's clearly two ships passing. There's a miss.
But I think that if one person is uncomfortable with it, obviously you're not going to change his mind. I think you just got to drop it.
But it's a sad story. Josh? I remember I once dated a girl and we went kind of back and forth for a year after that.
And I remember I text her like six months after that. And I was like, can we just be friends? And she was like, I can't be your friend.
And I remember that was like, I respected her for putting that boundary up because we had kind of gone back and forth. But I'd been the one who was like doing the breaking up and just young and didn't want to be committed.
And she was hurt. And she was like, no, I can't do that.
So yeah, I think that it's really hard. It's especially hard if you don't, I'm, I'm always of the mind like, well, we didn't get into it to be friends.
You know, like we had a different thing. I think if you're friends for a long time and then maybe it becomes physical for a little, maybe you can sustain the friendship, but otherwise I just think it's a, it's a tough thing.
And, and I would also check your motives because there might be a part of you that's like i swear i just want to be friends and if we somehow got back together cool yeah yeah agreed you know it's tough i hope she finds a new friend yeah do you have what are you nuts i do i do our what are you nuts moment people places and things gripes with humanity something in you. You look at somebody on the street, you're like, you're a moron.
That's what are you nuts, okay? I have definitely told this before, but it's something that needs to be said more than once. And it's going to sound like me, pompous bend celebrity, it is what it is.
If I'm having lunch, I have my mouth full and you come up and you say, hey, I'm so sorry to interrupt you while you're eating and then start a conversation. Don't tell me you're sorry.
Don't tell me that you're sorry for interrupting while I'm eating because you're not sorry because my mouth is full. I'm eating.
I have an omelet hanging out of my mouth. You're not sorry.
And that's totally fine. Nobody needs to apologize.
Nobody needs to say sorry. Just say, come say hi.
Next time, just come say hi. But I don want the song and dance oh i'm so sorry for bothering you no you're not you're not sorry otherwise you wouldn't have bothered me what are you nuts one thing about ben loves his fans i'm like robbie hoffman leave me alone my what are you nuts is i had a dinner with a buddy who sadly lost his house in the fires in the palisades and he goes guess what i got offered today i said what he goes a professional sifter that's right for eight hundred dollars an hour you can employ someone to like we're in the golden days in the oregon trail to sift your ashes.
It's dark. It's nuts.
What are you nuts? $800 an hour? He was like, Josh, it was so expensive that I was like, anything you find is not going to be worth the money I'm going to spend. Oh my God.
That is what are you nuts? Stop grave robbing too. I hate that.
God. Like you don't need to make a buck off of people.
Like it's terrible. I hate that.
Screw them. That's it.
