Speaker 1

Get up, getto boys. It's back and rehoaded all in your mind. Yeah, not deep throating. This is for the streets, the reel, the railroaded, the distant franchise, the truth, the scapegoating, and they ain't know wing. We spink the truth so they ain't quoted because we wrote it. The North South against Cold, the gv my for keeping your head bobbing. It ain't no stopping and wants to be drips head by then. The system is so corrupt they throw the rock out of their heads and then blame it on us.

Don't get it twisted on code and me and dancing for no buttoment biscuits. It's Willie d y'all scar facing the building. Collectively, we are the ghetto boys, reloaded with another episode of information and instructions to help you get through this wild, crazy, beautiful world. In the studio, Dr Donnish lee by Yeah Boom, I would not let him after he just said ding ding, rise and shape, I don't know. Tell me that that the for my age

and that's when he was fighting. That was the Republic of Chinese Zaire George Warman, Okay, it was the lad him in the jungle Ali boom, Yeah, beat George. They caught up the Democratic Republic of Congo. Now yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the best to ever come by. Man. I mean Ali Ali kill him, kill him, okay and ban do and he say George Farming boom too, yeah yeah George yeah yeah. Have you seen the movie here, Willie? Uh? Well, everybody performed this ship. They had the spinners over there

and all kinds. I saw that. I saw that said I had it. It It was dope. But I didn't hear anybody seeing that. George Farming and I watched it a hundred thousand times. What are you saying, Farming booming around? H Yeah, alright, maybe I should add that to my title, you know. Yeah, man, best if you're knock your motherfucker's out doctor. But I don't know. But then again I don't know. Man. You know, the doctor killing people, killing

kill him killing doctor. He man. Uh, it's tough right now in society and where we're at right now with all this stuff going on. So uh, you know, I should not be using that slogan because you know people may not take that right way. You know, let me ask you a question, doctor, like like with with the new variant of COVID going on right now, How how safe is it for an individual to take that shot? It's very safe, it is, it is. And the reason why I say that is because all the data shows

these vaccines work against the delta variant as well. Right, that's yeah. So what they've done is they've looked at the data behind the actual virus itself and they've seen the protein the delta variant, and it's shown that the vaccine itself does protect against that because the markers that are in that vaccine will help protect you from the variant. So variants are mutations, right. The flu mutates every year, right, That's why we get the flu shot every freaking year. Right.

It's a new stuff, right, this vaccine, this virus mutates, It changes itself. Now, that's what it's going to keep on doing. It's not man made. No, this is ship that we have seen before, and we've seen this with the swine flu. This is a mutation of the swine flu. Believe it or not. This happened into the is in an aid in China and affected a lot of these Asian countries. They got a lot of people. Man, yeah, we close behind them, we are, we really are. We

got a lot of people. We've got a lot of people that don't believe in science and they think it's you know, there is a there is a political game. I'm not going to say that it's not. But you know, they still don't listen to the science. And that's my big problem. Isn't that they don't believe in sciences. They don't trust. They just don't trust. It's both, really, it's both, man. I mean, they they'll look at a data, they'll look at real life people and they said, oh, we don't

trust this, nor do we believe it. Their own friends they say, oh, something else happened to them, or well this was meant to happen or they were meant to die anyways. You know, I had a dude I was talking to that was just a buddy of mine, and he was telling me that listen, man, I mean, we all got to die. It's this natural stuff that happens and this is a part of its natural course, you know. And so um yeah, so and if I can avoid dying, bro, I'm gonna do everything that I can. But there's not

everybody that believes like that, Brad. I mean, I tell you, people think that Hey, I mean, I got this going on, I got this. I'm sick this way. I gotta die anyway, so might as well let this thing take my life. Why why is it that we're not together on this? I see, uh, I see. This is a plague. Yeah, this is a plague, man. And it's getting ready to shut the United States down yet again. You know, it's gonna it's gonna put a dent in the economy yet again.

But people still refuse to do what it takes to to keep the spread up this virus disease slash down. Like, think of it like this, put a mask on. Take the vaccine. I don't know what's in it. They just put it out there. No, they didn't just put this out here. They've been working on this ship for years and years and years and years and years. Correct. I did my research on the two thousand and eight. Two thousand and eight is when that swine flu happened, right,

I mean refused the science. Some people refuse the science. And that's my big problem is when people don't look at the data, they think that this ship is made up. It's not. You know, the funniest in the world. Doctor. Not to cut you off, man. But Willie called me one night and he said, Man, I think I might got the coronavirus. I said, oh, that ship. I said, how you feel, man, you lost your blah blah blah. I don't know. I'm gonna call you back. I'm gonna

go to the doctor in the morning, all right. So I called and checked because I'm worried about it because Willie, Willie's not Willie. I'm Willie's my friend, but I'm not Willie's friend. You see what I'm saying that it does? It does? Yeah, yeah, it's clear, it's clear. Just like, really, how's your card? I checked on Willy and then, you know, Willy has always been cocking, and I asked him how he was. Man said, yeah, I'm good. Man, I ain't got no flying flue. Man, I gotta call you back

up about that on the end of that story. Man. But yeah, yeah, I want I want to get Willie to the point where he believed that the shot didn't just come up last like, and Trump didn't have nothing to do with the vaccine. You had nothing to do with the vaccine. Now you stand out in the front of this ship and act like he had something to do. He did not Willy take the shot with you'nna tell you three. Three people I know this week died to

from the COVID. Buddy of mind's mind passed away. She was vaccinated twice, but she was an older lady and she passed from the COVID. And then we had a young cat that passed. He couldn't have been no more than thirty thirty, between thirty and thirty three years old. Man, Yeah, he wasn't vaccinated. I don't know. I don't even want to ask, you know, I'll tell you. Some of these younger folks that are dying, it's because they're munocompromised. Right.

How are the immunocompromised Is because they take steroids and they take pills like toastone. They'll take h h some of that stuff that viagraphs. They're also drinking and right that too, that too. But the immunocompromised are the folks that get affected because their immune system can't fight this virus. Right you and I. I mean, if we're otherwise healthy, a lot of times we're going to be asymptomatic. We may not even symptoms. And Christ always tuck me up. Yeah,

I lost kidneys. Um, I hads of fluid in the sack of my heart, so my heart collapsed on one side, didn't work. Then I had to go to the pre cardio effusion right here. Yeah, they did. That should hurt so bad. You had to thors and tsis done. Huh. They had to drink that stuff out. You don't even see it hurt so bad. Doc, Let me tell you this. You guys have medicine that can fucking fix anything. Bro. And they gave me what's it called a lot of the lot? Yeah for pain? Yeah, yeah, that made you

calm down. That ship set me off like a subway was going through my head to the point where I got a friend of mine to record me when when when I got high? Yeah, So the nurse came in hit me and then I was sitting there and seeting everything. It was cool, and all of a sudden it hit the subway came through. Yeah, and Doc, that right there, it's the most amazing feeling I've ever had. So I know for a fact I don't want to try her run right Yeah yeah, because that that well, that's what

it'll make you do. You'll get that high, you'll feel like you're on top of the world. That's the way people describing. That's why we're in such a big opioid epidemic, you know, I mean these pain pills, these people mixing fentanel in with it, and people don't tell me about that, and all too it's a synthetic it's anthetic drug that

somebody made. And now what's happening is that in order to help folks get a high, people are putting the synthetic fentanel into these drugs to help them get that high. The problem is, we don't know how much fentanel is in there, and some people may not be able to tolerate that. Right, That's why we're seeing such a big increase in these numbers of debts and these otherwise healthy folks you know that do drugs is because this ship is laced with fentanyl. Doctor, what are your thoughts Do

you have any rancor towards Google doctors? You know, like, like, we we're in an age where information is readily available. Anybody can jump on the Internet and research and an illness of a symptom of whatever. Right, how how do you balance the information that they receive Your patients receive, Uh, from the Internet versus the information that you give them. Yeah, so I'm gonna go back to your point that question that you just asked earlier, which was why are people

more people not getting vaccinated? It's because of the misinformation. It's this doctor Google, right, doctor Google giving misinformation anybody. Anybody can go on the Internet and put type some stuff in, create a blog, post it, and some people may run with it, some people may make it a meme or whatever they may do. And that's the misinformation that travels. I was watching the news today and they came up something that they put in horses and cows

and ship. What's it called? Let ship some kind of some kind of stuff that stops courses from getting coronavirus? Right, So with with with with with with that said, like, why in the hell would you put a horse if you're not a horse or a cow? Why would you shoot this ship in you for one? And then why don't you get the one that's just designed for you? It makes no sense of having six with horses and cows. And well they got damned. We always got to go there.

I mean every time, bro, we cannot have a I mean you asked the question. I think that that was a reasonable response that I gave. I'm not even gonna I'm not known the people in this world really sick. So yeah, because we got a problem with the misinformation, We got a problem with people thinking that they can type whatever they want to and share that in. Our problem is we take that information, right, and a lot of times, I'm gonna say as much, it's probably of

the time that information is not coming from doctors. It's not coming from scientists. It's not coming from specialists in that field or whatever they're talking about. It's somebody who has some experience in some fashion and decides to post about it, and we take that and we run with it. So you're saying that just because somebody has a PhD, they don't make them a doctor. That's not what I'm saying, right, That's not what I'm saying. That's not what I'm saying.

What I'm saying they have to be a medical doctor, they have to be a medical person, right, they have to have some sort of No. I've got some researchers that are PhD s. They're scientists in that field. Right. They can't be a PhD in music and telling me about science. That's what I'm talking about. You can be a pH d in architecture, in engineering, and music, whatever you want to be in, but don't go telling medical information, you know, unless you're not an expert in that. Well,

what about nurse Jimmy. We were just watching that was talking all of this stuff about the vaccine. And I mean Jimmy, I mean he works with uh COVID patients daily, you know, And the question I would ask him is how well, for a CDC number one, did he go to medical school? Did he get a PhD? Does he have a diplomat? Is he somebody who's certified to talk about this right, just because I as a nurse or somebody has some sort of experience. It's like me talking

about the weather outside. Hey, the weather is cloudy, is going to rain tomorrow. I ain't got a degree in it, right, I ain't got I'm not a meteorologist. For the little kids that's in grade school, I mean that's in the elementary school. Like, how do we vaccinate our children? How we make it to where our children are safe to go out and and and do something as simple as go to school. Yeah, so number one, we have to vaccinate them. It's going to get to a point where

it's going to get approved. We're going to get some sort of manufacturer that's going to come out with a vaccine that's going to help with that, right, thankfully, thankfully, thankfully, thankfully, the studies have shown that COVID does not affect the younger population, the elementary students, the intermediate students, as much as it does the adults. Right, I don't I don't

see how that's even possible. Well, let's look at the data. Right, So the data shows that we've got about eight of the folks that are dying right now from COVID are anywhere from the age of twenty four two to twenty four all the way up to seventy. Right, So we've got this mixture of this big age group. But that's

the big population, right. Yes, we're gonna have some older, some younger, but the and some of those youngers were already immuno compromise, they had other stuff going on, right, But the majority is in that population, And thankfully, that's what the vaccine that we have right now is is targeting in this in this variant. Right now, is it way more easier to catch? Yes, yep, five times? How How do you catch the COVID? Is my question. So it's and don't tell me like you just got to

be in the room with a whole lot of people. Now, it's respiratory droplets, right, I'm talking to you. My respiratory droplets are coming to I'm gonna keep really, I'm fascinated. All right, I'm about to give me another Vaccinated people still die, but go ahead, hey listen, right, but listen those nine go on, nine nine nine of those folks that were vaccinated did not end up dying, okay because of COVID. Nine nine nine did not end up in the hospital and die because of COVID. Okay, So Brad,

Brad has been vaccinated. Yeah I haven't. He just coughed, I haven't. Right, Oh, that's what they were. Okay, it's to open up his lines. I'll say it's a bronco. Die later, I'll tell you what that is. It opens up your lungs, right, So, folks that have kind that's not what happened to a little like open up this ship the big one of the big words you'll be using it. Yeah, doc, so this ship works, it really does. Yeah,

I know. It opens up your lungs. But it's ignorant people that keep saying that it's and they keep blaming other things on COVID, right, I mean, you know, some somebody died for some other reasons. That's why we got COVID. It's possible. Listen, doc, So let me ask you this. Do you believe that black folks is trepidation about this trepidical dealing with, you know, dealing with the medical world.

You know, do you think it's warranted warranted that they have this trepidation about dealing dealing with uh, dealing with the medical world and dealing and trusting science, trusting doctors. Considering our unique experience in this country where we have used many, many times as guinea pigs, where we have been totally lied to. And it's not just the Tuskekee

experiment that that that throughout throughout throughout history. I mean, even if you look at just just the idea of black people just being born in this country, I'm talking about just I'm just I'm talking about just being a being able to just be alive, be birthed into this nation where black women are more likely to uh three times. I think it's I think the number is three or four times more likely to die giving birth than white women.

You know that. That's that's that has a that's directly uh nected to the treatment that they get, the services that they receive. Now that ain't got nothing to do with No, you can't tell me that's a hereditary dot. Well not necessarily. So, So here's what happens. Some folks, some ethnicities at our higher risk for having specific medical cor mobilities right commabilities, Yeah, meaning meaning that they have medical problems that are combination. Right. So, high blood pressure, hypertension,

and diabetes. We know that that runs higher in the minorities. We know that. Why is it? That's just how they're made. We're talking about minies. We're talking about black people specifically, right, So, and we know black people have higher risk of hypertension, which is high blood pressure. Right. High blood pressure can lead you to high to a stroke. That's why black

people have higher risk of a stroke. Right, It's all connected it Since we're talking about research, research has shown that black mothers who expected mothers have been given less treatment by by by doctors and nurses. That's what the researcher is saying that that the research is saying direct is directly related to the lack of services that they received. So so Willie, Willie, I'm gonna speak to my personal

experience and what I've seen in the hospitals. We are in the medical capital of the world, all right, the medical center, number one medical center in the world, all right, in the world. All right, let's get the facts right. And and I work out of in this area in Houston, and I'll tell you that I don't see that, right, And that may be the case in some of the rural country of cities, some of the rural places, some of the developing places, and that may be the case

in other parts. But I'm gonna tell you as a as a whole, right, as a whole, I'm gonna tell you that I haven't seen it, nor have I Ideal doctors on a daily basis, I've never heard them say I'm gonna treat this person differently because of the color that I'm going to treat. But I haven't a restaurant, Yeah, yeah, I mean, yeah, you've seen it in real estate. I haven't personally seen the real estate, But I say, have you seen it in a loan? A loan in the

banking industry? But then again, I'm we're talking about this and not that I mean, I'm not I'm not disagreeing with you, right, I'm sure that exists. But I'm speaking as a whole, right, I'm speaking as the general population. That's you know, it's like me saying, and we can say the same about some other minorities, right, I mean, you know the Asian community, right, that's not minority Asians. Asians are minorities. Yeah, okay, we're talking about minority, but yeah,

we're talking about there is. But but my point is is that this sort of stuff does happen in other places. I agree with you, um, and I'm not disagreeing. I mean, I'm sure that this stuff happens in the research support some of this stuff, But in a big city like this, it's not as relevant, it's not as common as some of the rural cities, uh, Mississippi. Maybe. See here's what here's what I don't believe, doc. I mean, you know, you ain't got no medical degree, ain't with school fourteen

years like you. You know, but you know, I got this thing called common sense, right, And so for me, it's like I just don't believe that the United States government is interested in saving black lives when they do nothing to punish people who take black lives. I mean, they do little or nothing, especially when it comes to members of law enforcement. So I just can't see them like really caring about us, all of us seton you

know that. It just gives me a pause. I mean, you're taking one thing and taking centuries of abuse, centuries of neglect, centuries of torture. It's kind of like crack ecademic Willie. You know, nobody gave a ship when it was in the black community alone. When the white people started getting the wold to it, and and and other ethnicities or the groups got a hold to it, then

you know they started taking notice to it. Yeah, they started taking notice, but they still disproportionately punished black people, uh because of it? Right, Okay, that's true with that, But the code, the COVID, you can't punish nobody for the COVID. So I'm standing old white woman. She's seventy two years old, she's seventy five, she seventified. You know, she's eighty years old. She can badly walk, her face and ship is all sunk in and ship and not gonna sit by and n Now she got to covid H.

That's when they start giving the funk. I know where you at, Willie. I'm in the same spot, bro. You know, like I wasn't gonna see anything because it wasn't necessary up to this point. But if you're gonna be confident, ship, you need to put on the mask. Man, while we're doing this interview. Man, anybody got a mask out there, Willie? If I started confident, man, you better call him. You better call the doctor. I heard you like to play

basketball in your I did. I did, And look i've been I've been friends with you for like five years or something. Man, I never knew you played basketball. I'm I guess that you would never call me anyway because I don't play. Yeah, I mean you're all the way on the other side of the world. I mean you know you played golf. Yeah. I ain't in golf yet. Man. Yeah, I mean my colleagues all the time, we're gonna go golf. They got at times and dates every week that they're there.

We got masked, okay, masking gloves. All right, give me all this ship, take it home. I don't want to be next to will No. I don't even know why I'm here, but go ahead, but go ahead. Yeah, but yeah, no, basketball is great, Uh you know, I mean hopefully this year the Rockets will you know, show something. I mean, I ain't gonna aim for the sky, but you know, I'm hoping for something. I'm hoping for something. What do you think? Well, I don't know, man, I just yeah,

something needs to happen, something drastically needs to happen. It's hard to believe that, you know, for me that Tilman is such a winner and what I want, Man, you're talking about I'm talking about business. Yeah he's but he had a lot of people behind him. It's not just him. But what I mean, my my point is that, like you know, like when you really like focused on winning

and I just feel like you you win everything. Like I could not imagine uh being an owner and not not doing everything it takes to win, just like like playing on the court, you know, you know, pick up games and all that stuff, you know, like growing up. You know, I want the advantage, man, I'm picking the best players on the team. So you can tell me I got the advantage all you want to. But I'm trying to win every game. I want to win every

single game, I'm picking the best players on the team. Different. I mean, wait, wait, wait, who's responsible for releasing James Harden telling me dumb? Okay, go ahead, Yeah, so listen, I mean, just because you can be an expert and a great businessman doesn't make you a great person to run a sports team. That's that's true. That's true. And a lot of teams in Houston have lost for a

long time, you know, and they wanted by billionaires billionaires. Right, So just because you it great in some sort of business, you excelled beyond anybody's expectations, that doesn't mean you're gonna excel in the sports of whatever you own. Right. Yes, you got a team, Yes you got other people in that team that are helping you. But still it ultimately comes down to you. Right, You're making those big decisions, right, you know, getting rid of people high getting recruiting people.

And so I think he's got a long road ahead of him, you know, And if he's smart, he's going to hire good people to be his right hand man. Right, That's what he really needs. He needs a good support system. He needs somebody that can direct him to say, hey, this is what you need to do to get that team even higher. He's taken that team, the Rockets, and and even go go to Dallas, right, the Cowboys. Right, Jerry has taken this team from you know, a few

million dollars to billions of dollars. Why, they're great businessmen, right, that doesn't mean that they can win championships. They've got so much advertising, they've got so much you know, money that they're making from different places. It doesn't matter if they win a championship or not. Exactly understand that. That's how Jerry's coming at it. Jerry, you know the American game, right, the American team, the Cowboys. I called him the cow Girls.

But that's that's the point. Yeah, And you know how many years has it been? We got no championships out of them, none rock championship side of the Cowboys. No. Recently, I'm talking on ten years where we had our boy, what's his name? Our boy for ten years Romo. Mr Romo has not produced anything for ten years. Yeah, Tony was regular man, you know you regularly do you know, regular season? And he didn't get paid regular money. He didn't get paid no regular money. Jr. Next can't do

too much? What made you want to be a doctor. What made me want to be a doctor. I've always wanted to be there you Indian Indian? Okay, yeah, but still you know, basically like what your parents you to do. Yeah. No, I'm the only one, believe it or not. Yep, only one. My parents didn't even go to high school. Yeah, they went to middle They moved here when my dad was fifteen and you know, live that American dream, come over here.

He had three jobs at a time, you know, slept four or six hours and just hustled, hustled, hustle and made it himself right. And so he told me, Donna, you know what's the ultimate form of giving back? And in our eyes as medical you know, doing stuff to you know, help the community, give back in any way you can. That's why every year you'll see me go and set up these medical camps, right I do. Yeah, yeah,

there's so many. There's such a limited doctors there number one and then doctors there's just no I mean, and it really helps me so much that you know, it brings me back as a new person because I come over here and you know, I can give back. I can do whatever I gotta do and and work those long shifts, but it's with that realization of that big

goal that we have in mind. So do you know when we think of Pakistan, like here in the United States, we think, oh shit, you know you're in they're working, trying to help people, and then somebody who's got a best trapped on and just sucking debtonates in the hospital. World. That's what the media makes you believe, right, I mean that's all over the world, right, I mean we've seen

that in so many different places. But that's what the media and why this stuff sells and media, right, media likes to scare people, right, that's the truth, Right, They like to scare us. And that's how and that's why we're in the position that we're at right now, is

because you know, but I'll tell you real life. I've got videos, pictures, I'll show you people out on the streets, restaurants are packed, you know, people are living normal lives in these overseas countries, um and and they don't want us to hear that, right, No, that's the same thing that they excuse me, that's the same thing. That's the same picture that they paint of Africa like it's just a desolate country and everybody starving and it's not and

it's the richest country in the world. Crazy, it's crazy. So and that just comes to the point where media does things where we watch it, we get scared and we want to watch more of it, right, And that's why we're in this predicative And you went to school for fourteen years, that's in dedication. Did you go fourteen

straight years to get yeah? Man, straight up? Yeah. I mean there's people that take little breaks here and there, you know, but from yeah, twelve high school and in two years and know, so high school obviously you got so. So you've got your undergrad which I did at University of Houston, go kuks uh and uh. I was fortunate to be a part of the honors college there where they really help you to you know, get in that kind of mindset of where you're ultimately trying to go to.

I mean, I had so many folks that were like, honest, you will not make it. You know, your grades, your you know, extracurriculativities aren't there too, you know, get you to that point where you can be a doctor. But that determination that you know, dedication to not saying no, kept me going. And uh, you know, so I finally

got into medical school. From there, there's the internship, so four years of medical school, year of internship, then there's four years of residency depending on what you decided to do, what you specialize in, and then there's a year or two a fellowship on top of that you can do as well. Did you know it was going to be twelve years when you started? Oh yeah, Oh yeah. I mean you can. I mean you get online and you

can see the direction of how things are. But I'll tell you that, you know, some of those years were probably the roughest years of my life. I mean, you know, for some folks, medical school comes easy. But you know, in a lot of times that you know, I say about of the time, you know, folks have of there's so much information that gets thrown at you in four

years that you have to put together. You have to analyze, and you get tested on you know, every week, and it's just and you have to move on to the next subject and you just keep on grinding and keep on going. It's non stop. You specialize in pain, you pain dot where you specialize, nobody I can treat that. I get that better for you. I got an injection for you. I'm going to see you Monday, all right, come on uh in Cyprus it's Arts Point Pain Institute. Yeah.

What what's what's the most severe case of pain you've ever experienced? I tell you yeah, I mean, you know, I'll tell you I have seen arthritis. I've seen these old, you know, brittle ladies coming into me. I mean, I'll do an X ray on them. Those bones are all crushed together. Being the bones are all together, it just makes you crazy. They gotta be in pain. Yeah, And those are the folks that I feel the worst for because I'm like, man, they've been walking around, you know,

slump forward. You see those older ladies, you know on the shopping carts. Yep, there you go, yes, slouch forward and man, and when you do, when you do X ray on those folks, you see there their bones. It's just it's so nice, bone on bone. What can you do about it? I mean, so there's a bunch of stuff you can do perform well, I mean, there's pain medications you can do to help, but there's a lot

of other stuff. Right. So a lot of those bones, when they deteriorate, they irritate the nerves and so you can give them nerve pain medications as well. We call them neuropathic agents like gabapentin, lyric that sort of stuff. You know, Yes, there's opioids and narcotics you can use for them, but you can also do anti inflammatory medications. There's no curia. Listen, there's no I know, I know,

but there's no cure to arthritis. That's it. That's if you and I or anybody comes up with a cure right to prevent arthritis, will be million billionaires, right because that's the number one problem we face. That's why pain doctors and pain is so common, is because you've got these folks that get arthritis over time and it affects. But it isn't the money in the medicine. Why would they come up with the cure if they make so much money off the medicine. I mean, and there's true

it is. That is a true fact that pharmaceutical pharmaceutical companies are the number one, uh one of the first, number one country or number one things that are out there, businesses out there that uh make a ship ton of money. And you know, and that's true, and that's just the unfortunate truth of where we're at in society. They get fund they get funds. They you know, they fund uh you know some of the politics, and we know that and you know, and it's sad, but it's also true.

So arthritis, doc, Like, what what about arthritis makes your bones? Like? Uh, she passed away like sixty eight years old, but she didn't walk from the from like the age of twenty eight, and her her arms and everything and legs and everything just she couldn't move nothing. Yeah, So so she could have had two things. Number one, yeah, rheumatorid. Yeah. So that is a form of arthritis that affects both sides and it's a very debilitating disease that progresses a lot

more than arthritis in general. So when I say arthritis that everybody gets as we age, that's osteo arthritis. Okay, there's an inflammatory arthritis called rheumatorid arthritis that affects folks at a much rapid pace than osteoarthritis the general wear and tear, the you know, as we age, we all get this, But there are other arthritis is that are out there that will cause you to get in that crippled. She can not move at all, Yeah, she could, she

could nothing she could blink and talk. Yeah, it's cold blood's cold blooded man from the time from eight years old. Yeah. Yeah. So she was in a wheelchair all this time. She was in the bed all all this time, had lifts that would sit her in the sit it out on a chain pusher. But it got to a point she just stopped doing all of that. Ship So she didn't have children or anything. She had was us. I think her brother was my grandfather, so his nine children was hers.

I was. I was a grandson, so I was hers too. So you know, I gotta say this. I applaud folks that take care of the elderly population. I gotta say that period. You know, I think that in the American society, uh, you know, we tend to forget about our elders and you know, generally speak a king. And I'll tell you those folks that have taken care of their elderly family friends, they've built themselves sister in law. There was my grandfather sister.

So I applied to my grandmother. Took care of her from the time she she took ill when they got married or whatever, all the way until the time she passed. My grandfather died first and she still took care of a man's sister ship. I can't tell me about my grandmother dog. What is the age that parents get rid of their kids in Pakistan? Like, what age do you have to get out of the house? They stopped never never. So so the reason is why, I'll tell you why

Will decided to stop you there. But the reason is why because those kids grow up in those households and they'll take care of their parents. That's the difference, right, And so they'll grow up in that household, they'll become successful, they'll do whatever they got to and then they'll turn around and take care of their aging parents. You never have to leave, always welcome, Chris is. The overall sentiment for young people who take care of their parents is

that they're not taking on some type of burden. That is not the way they look at it. No, it's not. It's an honor, that's the word. Yeah, it's an honor for them to have that privilege because they realize that if they shoot do this, they show their kids, their kids what they're doing. In reverse, their kids will do the same thing. And what an honor it is to have your somebody take care of you when you are aged.

So that's the reason why it's looked at as an honor is because your own kids are watching you take care of your your grandparents and and that's heavy. See I never got that about people in America. You know, you turn eighteen or you ain't going to school, get out. You got to get out and go get it. And the thing is that sometimes kids are not ready. They're

not ready. I mean, everybody mature at different rates. And if you put your kids out there and you say you cut off, I ain't doing nothing else for you. You've grown get your own, Uh, you can't get end up in a bad space. And a lot of times that happens. Right. We see that because you know, until eighteen, their parents have been taken care of them, and then they set them loose. They don't know what to do, right. That's why this gradual kind of getting them ready getn't

giving them responsibility as they're coming to that age. And it doesn't have to be eighteens, right, it can be whatever age is decided. Whatever the family decides is that they think that this kid is appropriate. Not all kids are raised the same, not all kids have the same maturity, Not all kids have the same level of you know, smartness in them. So some need less, some need more. Right,

I was out of the house at sixteen. I graduated from high school at sixteen, so naturally I was out of the house to you know, go do my undergrad and go do what I had to do. But that didn't take me away from my core roots and from coming back home regularly. Yeah, I've always said that my kids. I told my kids, like, you always have a home with me, you can forever, because I look at it like, as long as anybody in my house is doing something

productive with themselves, uh, we're good, you know. Like, but you're not gonna come into my house and just just be reckless, uh, you know, sitting around doing nothing at all. I mean, you know, you can be productive by you know, running a charity or something, even if you're not making money.

I'm talking about being productive. You did what I'm saying, Like, that's the key what you just said, really being productive, And that's already understood in these developing countries, is that this kid is not going to just sit at home until he's eighteen and then figure it out. He's already establishing things, establishing ways for him to be productive in society, and so that way, when he gets to that point when he's aged, when he's growing, he can turn the

cards back around and help him them. Right right, Yeah, man, My my daughter is a practicing, practicing lawyer, and I still give an allowance. She still get allowance, and she makes good money, right she's in the six figures, kept that way up there, But I still give her an allowance. Uh. But that's just me, you know. Uh, that's just something that I do. But but I think it's important to gradually, like like you said, let these kids move at that pace,

like gradually, don't just eighteen boom, that's it. You're done with school out, you're done, you got you got a job, You take care all your own mules and stuff on your own. That's it. Now. I understand that, you know, if everybody ain't got everybody ain't set up the way everybody's bank account is set up, you know, they don't.

You know, kids have to kick in a little bit more, right, I understand that, But I just don't subscribe to this idea of just turning your kids a loose and just totally saying that you're on your own just because they achieved a certain milestone and age. I don't believe in that. I think you've got to give them some gradual responsibilities. You've got to trust in them, right, You've got to let them earn your trust and uh and then you

slowly kind of increase there. And those are the kids, those are the folks that should get those jobs, get get to a point where they're uh beginning to sustain themselves, and then over time, as they show responsibility, as they show growth, you can kind of start tinkering down. Let me ask you a question, doc, and I'm sure that that that Willie want to know the same thing. Why is it that we don't like to go to the doctor, Yeah, to see what's wrong with us? Why is that why?

And I can say for short and black people, but everybody else too. Yeah, well a lot of other people are like that too. But again, that's going back to what I said about us being guinea pigs a lot. But I don't I don't not not when you're not. I'm just saying, man, you know, the history is there, the eyeballs about to fall out, bro, but the doctor. But I'm saying, go back in the morning. But this is what I'm saying, you know, we were all you're familiar with pathlaw, Okay, so dr okay, so the path

mom spelling okay, so path listen, well spelling. When he subscribed up to the concept that you know, people are who they are by process of conditioning, he's the one that did the lab rat thing, you know, right, So, so people are who they are by process of conditioning. And if you're conditioned to be a certain way for an extended amount of time, it's gonna be a little

hard to break that. Whether listen, if you grew up in a household where education is stressed, then quite naturally you're gonna go on to do good things that you know academically, if you grew up in a household when nobody bass an eye, if you drive, you know, if you don't bring home good grades, nobody's going bad eye. If you drop out in the eighth grade, nine grade, tent grade, left grade, you know, if you don't you know further your education. Right, So we all who we

are by process of conditioning, good or bad. We are who we are by process of condition of course, there are exceptions. Because I'm sure somebody's watching this, right, Whatever didn't happened to me. You know, I ain't have nothing, and then I made it out of time, you know. But but I'm just saying that we are who we

are by process of conditioning. And this is why a lot of black people in this country have been conditioned, you know, over the years, uh to not trust the government in this country because the government having given black people in this country anything to trust them. For the government in this country has used and abused and shipped on black people since the beginning, since we since they brought us over here to do that agriculture in the

South and that textile in the north. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, I I see where you're coming from, you know. And but I gotta tell you that, will you. I mean, let's be realistic. Let's I mean, a lot of black people are successful, right, A lot of black people are right, not enough, right. I can say that about our minorities, South Asians, um, you know, but a lot of people are successful. You know. It's I hear what you're saying about the history. You know, things have changed with the

technology and with things that we've had. Now I'm not saying that this doesn't still happen in a small rule, break something down to your doctor. America has a debt to pay. Okay, imagine if you were just you was a doctor and you worked how many years you've been a doctor, I've been four years. Imagine if the most we just grabbed you and made you come do that ship for free for four years and and and and for for for for three hundred and nineties six years

after that, plus just did that ship for free. Okay, that wouldn't be cool with it, not at all. So America has a debt to pay. America has has has worked the black man for free for all of these years and has never ever put a bell on the cat. They never broke the bread, benefited from it. They benefited from it, but they never broke bread. They agreed to the forty eighters and in the middle, and they never broke the bread. So understand that there's no way, doctor,

we can let those biogones be bygones. That and s and see here's another thing. It's like it's like we here this. A lot of times people say, well, you know a lot of black people are successful. Man. You got Oprah Winfrey, you got Michael Jordan, you got this, this this understand this yes, we have had millions of successors, not just those people who are way up there that that have achieved things that nobody's gonna pretty much do, you know, not just black people. But ain't nobody gonna

be a beyond. Nobody's gonna do with jay Z did and and nobody's gonna do with oprah D and all this type of stuff. Right, So we get that, but these are extraordinary exceptions to the rule. And then there are there are many other exceptions to the rule. In the millions, we got so many successful black people, you know, from the doctors, lawyers, uh, entrepreneurs, uh, you name it.

Just even even just those black people who have worked a nine to five for forty years and they put their kids through college, and their kids went out and and didn't. Ain't nobody end up in jail, Nobody got slaughtered in the streets like a dog. Those are success stories. Are It shouldn't have to be that hard. It shouldn't have been that hard to begin with. But the point that I'm trying to make is that when we do make it, we got to go above and beyond the duty to call a duty to make it like we

ain't like everybody else in this country. We kick ass. We got the rocket, we got the it all the way out to win. We don't just get to just say, oh, I want to do the right thing. I'm gonna do the right thing, and I'm going to go to college. I'm gonna listen to my parents, I'm gonna be respectful of a thought to authority, and you know, I'm gonna treat people like I want to be treated and then life is just gonna turn out great. That ain't high worked in America with black people. This is what I'm

trying to say. How how can we change that? How can we make that happen? How can we get We got to kill all the races. You gotta make sure that everybody that's saying that they agree with you actually

agree with you. No, we got to kill all the races. Well, that's why we need listen, that's why we need more minorities and power, right, more black people in power, because look at it like this, guys, everybody walks on the back of black people, whether they be Afghan, Pakistani, a makes They're gonna walk on the backs of the blacks and tell them, you know, we're gonna there gonna follow us arounding their stores, and they're gonna look at us

automatically like we're thieves, you know, and and and committing the crime. And that's not that's not us, that's not us. I mean, you've got some black people that do it, that commit crimes, You've got some white people, you've got something, sure, Pakistani people that commit Sure, everybody commit crimes, but don't don't look at us, you know. Yeah, yeah for real. Really, that's why I think that the whole Black people matters,

Black Lives Matter is so important, right. I mean, it's not just about the black people, right, it's about the whole world itself and the injustice that we're experiencing in this country. Right. It's not even just this country either, brother, every person of color, every person of color of this color, that color. You know, whether you live in Africa, London, or wherever the funk you live, you're gonna always be scrutinized, scrutinized because of your color, your skin. You feel me

like it's gonna always be that. And again, in my opinion, and as we've talked about it, the way to fix that is to get more people in power. And if we can do that, if we can create a voice for the community and for people to express themselves, for them to understand. That's why I think that this platform is so great. And what I I applaud you guys for what you are doing. The people that you guys are reaching out to UM and becoming a voice for I applaud you guys for that, and I think it's

appreciate that. And of course Fam, you know, Fam, I'm being I was being facetious about killing all the races. You can't kill all the races. That's impossible. It's a new one born every day. But to to to your point, hey man, that is a tall task because they're blocking. The only way to to to rim any of these type of things is through education. People got to be educated. You need you either you either educate is either education

or his war. Right, And even even even if we went to war right now today, when the dust clear, you'll still have racist people. So that's not gonna be the answered. That's not gonna be answered, right. So at the end of the day, it has people has to be educated. And when you are educated, you know you make better decisions, right, correct, And so but how are you going to be educated? About the history and what's going on when they won't even allow it to be

taught in the schools. They're afraid of the children noring the truth. Yeah. Yeah, and that's where we need to again, as I said, you know, get folks, especially our minority community or black people community, get them all together. Get them these power of authority, these roles in society where their teachers, their doctors, their lawyers, they're influencers of our society. Right, we have that, and we need more. We need more problem you know what, we need more of those. I

bet you didn't know, sir. I bet you didn't notice. I could be a fucking rocket scientist. Yeah, and I can go to NASS and ask for a job. I can show him all of my credentials. Yeah, white guy walk in and fucking newspaper thrower, and they'll say, well, you're over qualified. Another guy you might have a criminal record, and you have a clean criminal rec I mean, you know what I'm saying. You like, you don't have a record at all, and he still might the job. This

is what we're up against. But again that's why I say, like when we make it, you know, I'm always saluting the ones that make because I know what you have to go through. If I see a black doctor, I already know, Like you know, I'm not taking anything from you, donnish, but I'm telling you, if I see a black doctor in America, I know for a fact that he went through some ship that regularly other doctors, people from other

ethnicities didn't have to go through. You know, if I if I see a black accountant, I know he's going through ship that other accountants they ain't got to go through because of this this image that has been projected against us, that was manufactured by this government, and that that and that to this day, to this day, continues to be disseminated across the world. Man Will he's got to vote Camp. But man, he needs to write that

stuff down. Man, he's got dictionary next. I think that if they don't want to teach black history in their schools, and they shouldn't teach white history either, And let's make it fair, like fuck Abraham Lincoln and George Watch and Thomas Jefferson, but and fu Elvis too. But he never meant nothing to me straight out and John Wayne, So listen, this is where this public This is the opportunity. This is an opportunity for all the parents to come out

and educate. If we can't do it in the schools, if we're not doing it in the schools, we need to forget. We need to make sure that we are continuing this education at home. Right. So this is a message that all our parents, that's what we need to

be doing. Right. If they're not teaching this, if they're not teaching about all the bad ship that happened, right, we need to do a better job of educating our kids are next narration because if we don't do it that you ain't getting carried over and they're gonna forget about this. They're gonna forget about what a hard time you know, we had growing up to get to where

we are now. Right. So that's my message to everybody is to say, yeah, I mean listen, man, uh we need to take these people, take these kids, sit them down and say, hey, listen, you need to listen. This is what I had to do to get to where I'm at. This Mercedes outside just ain't sitting out there because it came to me, right, I had to work my ass off. I had to do this, this and this and this is what history and this is what

we had to do to get to where we're at. Right, absolutely, man and Dot that is a great noteing, Doc, you're a bad dude. Man. We talked about Shot said why my father's not going to the doctor to what we need to do to retain our history a regular doctor. Look at what he got on well, Gucci Maucci, I mean doctor that shirt. We've worked hard to get to them. If you like the shirt, you should see his home. We got a bad creb. We worked hard to get to where we are, and we can spoil ourselves, right,

you know, started at the bottom. That's it. That's exactly right. And you know, and we've worked hard to get to where we're at, and that's where we need. We need to teach our next generation to do as well. Right, work hard, nothing's given to you, and and do it and and hustle hard every single day and you're going to come out on top. Can people find you? I'm all over the place. You can find me on Instagram. Houston Pain Doc or Euston Pain Doctor. Both are my hashtags.

Man, you kill on TikTok my pleasure. It would be a pleasure. You would. You would definitely

And listen, my biggest thing is I want to reach I want to get out the word of you know, if somebody's watching, if somebody's listening, like, this is the stuff that I do. Right, I'm a medical correspondent on Fox. Why do I do this? There are people sitting at home and having symptoms, having things that they may not go see their doctor. It goes back to that stigma thing that you were talking about just earlier, Brad, right, And that's what I'm trying

to lessen that stigma. We are we are humans, we're here, we're here to help. We've gone through a shipload of education to get to where we are to help everybody, everybody that's in need. And so that's why I do these sorts of things to educate folks that are maybe watching us wherever they are or listening to us. I want to get out to them and say, if you if you need anything medically, if you're having any symptoms, you know, this is what we need to do before

you go. Doc Brad cuts you off. Earlier when you were talking about the truck, my truck. He was asking me how my truck was treating me? What are you saying? I said, how is that range Rover? Right, You've got a beautiful suv, a range Rover, and you know those are notorious for breaking down? So I asked him, how is that range Rover treating you? And this is his response. Go ahead, well now you can tell him what I said. Response was, how am I treating that car? Is what

he said? How am I treating that? I'm like, how am I treating the range Rover? I'm the one spinning four thousand dollars for fucking maintenance and and creating all and cleaning it. Bad boy, I mean you know so yeah, uh Dot. I appreciate you, man, We are apreciate you. Thanks for stopping through, ladies and gentlemen. Dr Donnish Ailie. Thank you, Doc.
