The following podcast is a Dear Media production.
Mazum morons, welcome back to the Good Guys podcast.
We are so honored.
We are here with royalty.
We are.
This guy has brought me and my wife so much joy and not because he did my facelift.
It's because we love him.
We love botched.
We love everything.
Dr. Terry Dubrow.
Thanks for having me, you guys.
It's really good to see you again.
Yeah, you look great, by the way.
I did a really great job, obviously.
Beautiful.
Oh, we are going to get there.
Let me, let's start off here because, Ben, and I know you've been in person,
with Dr. Dubrow before.
Yes.
This man, are you, do you know?
He's a specimen.
He's a specimen.
I'm comfortable to talk about my age.
That's what you're asking me.
Yeah.
I'm 66.
Unreal.
Yeah.
It is a fiddle.
Yeah, I'm very fit.
I, you know, I try to do something significant physically
every single day.
Like what?
Like so when this is over,
because today I'm doing press for plastic surgery rewind,
my new show that's on.
Tonight, premiere episode 10 p.m. on E.
Yeah.
You know what we're doing.
So it's called Botch presents plastic surgery rewind where a group of celebrities move into a house together who have had plastic surgery and they decide whether or not to rewind it, which is not easy.
But they go through this whole therapy process and we try to figure out whether they're ready for it and they figure out whether they're ready for it.
And if they go down this time tunnel and they come out the other side and we'll see what they look like.
Wow.
It's interesting because we, you know, life sort of intersects you at very interesting stage of your life.
Aubrey O'Day, if you know who that is.
Sure, pop star.
Yeah, pop star, P. Ditty.
So P. Diddy got arrested her first day on the show and it would just blew her mind because she has, you know, obviously she was sort of abused and had that whole history.
And that was a big part of her story that unfolds on the show.
And then, you know, Kim Zolziak, Brielle Berman, mother, daughter on the show.
And they have a lot of issues that have been in the media.
recently. So there's a lot of, besides just sort of plastic surgery topics, there's this whole
plastic surgery regret, what it means to you, what happens if you do rewind the surgeries,
if you do reverse the surgeries, which are high risk anyway, and just the whole gamut of,
of sort of all the issues regarding that. Wow. Who comes up with the ideas for these shows,
Terry? So are you being pitched? Like a man of your stature at this point is probably being
pitched. Are you pitching them? This is a great idea. And it sounds very,
Yeah, this I didn't pitch.
I do have a show that I am pitching called Sudden Beauty Island,
where these people who are going to have plastic surgery move on to an island.
Wow.
And they're all charismatic, and then they hook sort of get together,
and then they are taken off, and then they have their surgery,
and they're turned into these incredibly look, incredible looking people.
And that introduces a strange, attractive variable that they may have not have had before.
And let's see how the sort of social experiment of attractiveness affects relationships.
That is genius.
It's like it's like the better version of love is blind.
I never understood love is blind.
You're sitting there.
You're watching these people.
They're talking.
They're falling in love.
If they're not attracted to each other, it's kaput.
It's gone.
This, it's you at least you see them.
It's fascinating.
It's true.
It's like, well, they're all super charismatic because they overcame their physical sort
of shortcomings.
So they come in with this amazing personality and they hook up based on sort of things you'd
want them to get together for great, you know, emotional attractiveness and so on. And then
we then introduce extreme beauty into it because some people, one thing that Swan taught me,
it's you. It's me. One thing that's one thing that Swan taught me, okay, second, by the second season,
we both figured out because there were two surgeons, being another guy, who with just some minor
things wins the beauty lottery? Because for example, if you took Angelina Jolie or Tom Cruise,
and you stuck their ears out, gave them a big bump on the nose, right,
and sort of straighten out their bodies or they were heavy or something.
And then you just did those, take the bump away, pin their ears back,
do little sort of things we do every day.
In them, they would be them.
Right.
They would be them, extraordinarily gorgeous people.
So every once in a while, some patient will come to your office who is going to have a sort of routine procedure.
You go, oh, they have no idea.
They have no idea they are about to become suddenly beautiful.
And careful what you wish because, you know, you win the lottery.
You think your life's going to be wonderful.
But then when you look at the history of people won lottery, they usually kill themselves.
There's a problem.
Yeah.
Yeah.
On the Swan, when a few of them, more than the second season, because we learned how to pick for that variable, how to make them look suddenly beautiful, it messed their lives up.
You know, they immediately left their abusive husband, boyfriend.
They wouldn't take BS from their boss.
anymore because they're like gorgeous now.
So it'll be,
it'll be interesting to see if that show goes,
what that sort of does to their
relationships. And maybe with
the challenges, the prizes
are like, and you just won
JuvaDerm!
You know, like you can compete
for something, you know, PDO threads.
I don't know. Something like that. Yeah.
We've been wanting to ask about, Olivia and I want to ask
these threads. Yes.
Is that what it's called PDO thread?
Yeah, there's different types, but that's
what is this?
What is this?
So it's based on this technology that has been tried for years, okay?
Originally, these sort of synthetic threads came in this formulation where it had these little hooks on them.
So you feed them in there and then you're barbs.
Exactly right.
And you pull and the barbs attach.
How do you know that, Josh?
I hate myself.
He's very sophisticated.
And so you'd sort of do, you know, this tightening thing.
from the inside. The problem is they don't work. They don't work. Now, they may, the new
kind variety works for about six weeks. And then they don't work. So I'm not saying that because
I compete with dermatologists and non-plastic surgeons. I don't really compete with anybody. I do
my thing, you know, but I'm not saying that to try to take any business away from people who
do threads. They don't work. And that is, I mean, if they worked, I'm going to tell you they work.
They ultimately don't work.
Don't do it.
Over time.
Because there's probably an instant kind of, oh, and then just quickly it resettles is what you're saying?
Exactly.
I mean, you know, some of those, like I had a CO2 laser done on my face about a year ago.
Not that deep because I didn't have the recovery time, but it took off all this pigmentation and
tighten my skin and all these wrinkles.
And I went in the sun, I'm sleep deprived chronically because I can't sleep very well.
I work like a maniac.
It's all back.
Right.
Okay, and that isn't to say CO2 doesn't work because it does work.
But threads do not work.
Don't do them.
What do you think about with all these kind of the CO2 lasers and the true sculpt and the fillers and the Botox, all these things, especially for face, right?
Yeah.
If you had someone who you knew over five to 10 years was going to probably spend anywhere from 10 to 20 grand on all these maintenance procedures, would you look at them and say, spend not what you're.
would charge, but a middle of the line facelift. Spend 50 now.
Facelifted at a strip ball. Yeah, yeah. A group on facelift. Like, get the facelift now.
Don't penny any it for the next 10 years and you won't actually get the result you want.
So the true answer, like everything else in life, it depends. Right. It depends on the individual.
I mean, if you're 40, you're starting to sort of show a little jowling and deflation of the face.
you can do a facelift then,
but you can sort of get a fairly similar result
by just doing sort of this non-insafvasive stuff
you're talking about.
Really judicious, well-placed fillers,
Botox, some of these non-invasive things.
And you probably should wait, okay?
I do agree with the early facelift.
What I always say to patients is,
do you know that you're going to get a facelift one day?
If they come and they go,
oh, for sure, I'm going to get a facelift.
And I say, okay.
And then I go like this.
The next maneuver is I go like this.
I go, do you like the way that looks?
And I go, yeah.
I go, all right, ready?
And then I let go.
And they go, do that again?
I go, yeah, you're not ready.
If this makes a big difference and you know you're going to do it anyway for sure.
And then you understand the risks of it.
And you hear all the nerve damage and scarring and all those things that can happen.
You might want to do it early.
You might want to do it.
But I will tell you, you know, one of the things I like,
I don't know if you guys are aware that sort of celebrities very, very recently,
like within the last few days, have now come out and talked about their plastic surgery.
Like Kylie Jenner, Chloe Kardashian, right.
Ricky Lake.
I mean, it's like a thing right now to be transparent.
Although, how transparent are they?
They're willing to admit to like, you know, a couple of things.
But what about the 19 other things?
But anyway, we don't have to.
Oh, they're hiding.
No, the person that comes out and gives you the laundry list, left the other laundry list.
left the other laundry list in the other room.
Exactly.
This is the stuff they're comfortable with telling you, okay?
But anyway, that's okay.
But so this transparency that they are sort of talking about right now has reignited
or very much ignited people's enthusiasm to go into the Placterns office and get things done.
So like, for example, when Kylie Jenner and her, what, 140 million Instagram followers,
maybe it's 220 now.
I don't know what it is.
I think it's like 450.
Is it really?
Something absurd, yes.
And I can't even, I love where you're going.
I want to talk about this.
The amount of international followers she has and the crazy places that these people probably
went for 450 C.C.
Or whatever it is, boob jobs by the ocean.
She's ruining these people.
But continue.
So it's interesting because two years ago, she on their show said, oh, I had my breast
done before I had kids.
Worst thing ever did, I regret it.
She said, I was way too young.
love my breasts and now I have this and by the way there's a picture of her yesterday.
I don't know if you saw that where they're showing sort of some scars and stuff that's in the
media right now.
I don't know.
I think Kylie Jenner is gorgeous and I love a lot of the things she does.
But to put out this enthusiasm right now without the sort of other side of it, which is, hey,
I did this.
You guys may like it, but, you know, I regret it.
You know, so she's sending all these sort of 19, 20, 21-year-old, 22-year-olds into the plastic
surgeon's office to have their breast in because Kylie generated it.
She did the same thing with injections to the lip, right?
Long time ago, all these people are going into plastic surgeons office to have early injections.
You know, she does that, which is fine to create enthusiasm and transparency, but at the same
time, she should remind people, hey, but I regretted it.
Sure.
You know, and the problem in plastic surgery is the patients may start to be transparent about it,
but I don't think the plastic surgeons are.
We have these really expensive off.
My new office is in Beverly Hills.
I moved up to Beverly Hills.
I'm on Roxbury, okay?
Oh, this is nice real estate.
This is plastic surgeon row.
Right?
Okay.
Yeah.
You walk down there, you look like you're in witness protection.
Right.
You become a new person.
But it's on your, Roxbury, Santa Monica, you know, crustaceans right there.
Craig's is down there. I mean, this is like the place to get your plastic surgery potentially.
So you come into my office and you see someone besides me, for example, they have this overhead.
They have these expenses. They have, you know, coordinators and employees they're paying a lot.
They have overhead. They're maybe seeing you not necessarily, as much as I'd like to say all doctors are,
do no harm, the Hippocratic Oath. They're going to try to sell you surgery for sure, even if there are
cheap alternatives, even if you actually knew that, you know what, if I do this breastlift on you
because your breasts have drooped a tiny bit, you're going to have scars for the rest of you.
If you told it like that to some of these patients, they go, well, wow, I'm glad you said it like
that.
Forget it.
I don't want to do this or I'll do it.
But, you know, we sugarcoat things.
We see everybody who comes in our office as a pre-op, as a potential sale, okay?
Yeah.
If plastic surgeons were more transparent about what you're really signing up for,
there would be much better informed plastic surgery and a lot less of it.
And for Kylie Jenner to say, it's not her fault.
I am not putting her down, okay?
I know she had a wonderful family.
They're really nice people.
I know a lot of people know them very well.
But Ferdas said literally hundreds of thousands of 19, 20, 21-year-olds to have their breasts done.
I don't know that's the right thing to do, particularly when two years ago,
she said it was one of the big regrets in her life.
and she got to spend as much money as she wanted
and go to the best person or one of the best,
obviously not the best,
but one of the best to then regret it.
Like, imagine how many people are nickel and diming
their way to this surgery.
Like, it's definitely, it's crazy.
And I haven't thought of that.
And if you think about food,
we go into restaurants,
I won't go to a restaurant with a C rating.
What are you nuts?
I'll only go where it's an A rating.
Like, where is that?
Like, you're going to walk in because some friends said,
I got my lips done there.
And, oh, I trust this doctor.
It's all word of mouth.
But is there any, like, governing body for this, this plastic surgeon is a crook?
No.
Does that exist?
And will you talk about cosmetic surgeons and these weekend workshops?
Oh, I'm on the right side.
Yeah, you know about it.
Well, okay, two things that.
One, okay, you're right.
Anybody can call themselves a cosmetic surgeon in this country.
You can be a radiologist on Friday and a cosmetic surgeon on Monday.
Wow.
It's legal.
A psychiatrist?
You can be a podiatrist.
You can be a podiologist.
guys just do cause.
You can be...
That I'm not cool with.
You can be a dentist.
Yeah, we have this thing on one of the seasons of botch.
She comes and goes, yeah, a dentist did my nose job.
Oh, my God.
You know, come on.
Respect.
Yeah.
So it's legal, all right, to do that.

I will tell you the truth is, if you go to an A-rated restaurant in Los Angeles, the chances
that you're going to get sick is very, very, very, very low.
Yes.
If you go to one of the best plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills and you have breast implants
put in, there's a 30% chance that you're going to have such significant scarring that
you're going to need revisional surgery within a few years.
Interesting.
Even if he does it or she does it.
Got it.
perfectly. This is
like surgery. This is not
you know ordering Thai food
down the, you know, on Bedford
or something. This is like, you know,
so you could be really, that's
the problem with, one of the problems is, you know,
I'm having a little work done. Oh, that's so cute.
I'm having a little work done. I'm having my nails done.
I'm a massage. And I'm going to do my
facelift. Well, you're going to be put into a chemical
coma. Right. To do your face. Your face
is going to be sliced open.
And we're going to be just at the layer
above the nerves, particularly with this new kind
deep-flame facelift we do.
This is some serious, serious stuff with a lot of serious.
You know, unfortunately, one of the best dermatologists,
this is a right now kind of thing that just came out in the media yesterday.
But arguably the most famous dermatologist,
you may or may not have heard of you probably haven't,
in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles,
who within the dermatology world is a true legend,
passed away in the last two weeks,
having neck surgery done.
Wow, way.
Yeah.
It's wild.
Yeah.
So, so it's, this is like, be careful.
Has it, no negligence has been revealed.
It's just sadly one of those rare cases or someone.
I don't know.
Those more will be revealed.
More will.
I have no idea.
I mean, I sort of do, but sort of, I don't.
I don't enough to actually definitively tell you.
But, I mean, if you have someone who's board certified in plastic surgery do your face
and neck lift, the chances that, for example, will lose.
lose the airway and you'll die.
I mean, it should be pretty close to zero because at the end of the day, even if everything
goes bad, I can still cut open your neck and gain access to your airway.
Right.
Tracheotomy.
And you're not going to die.
But if you're having, and I don't know about him in particular, although I sort of, but
I don't know.
But if you're having it done by a person who doesn't know how to do that because they're
not a real plastic surgeon and that happens, you're all bad.
All bad.
Well, that's right.
I mean, that's basically how they lost Joan Rivers.
Exactly.
Well, from neglect.
I was like that was, okay.
They were taking a selfie with her.
You have a problem with this theoretically.
You're operating on a celebrity, okay?
And celebrities can manipulate.
There's a thing they can do with their surge is, oh, I'm taking care of Joan Rivers.
And maybe I'll just do a shortcut and I won't do this.
And I don't want to mess up.
You know, she's telling jokes next week.
And we're just going to take a look at her larynx and see if there's any polyps.
And they sort of, well, they don't do the, hey, if A then B, if B then C, they go, well, let's just, we don't want to, you know, do anything too aggressive on it.
And they just let her die.
What does that mean?
Because she's a celebrity.
Something really bad happened.
They lost the airway.
And they were in a major Manhattan facility with major league famous surgeons who, who under normal circumstances with a surveillance.
who under normal circumstances with a civilian,
this never would have happened.
But because she's Joan Rivers, okay,
they sort of,
this is why you're not really supposed to treat your family members
because you may do something that you normally don't do.
Sure.
But let me ask you, Dr. Dubrow, like,
and I know your history, you know,
General Surgery, UCLA, like you've been,
you've really been through the gamut.
Yes.
I have a close family friend who's the head of Chief of Plastics at St. John.
And she always says, I only work with anesthesiologists who work with sick people.
Yes.
She said, because it can be easy to be lulled in when you're only dealing with healthy people coming in for elective surgery to not when something hits the fan to have just be to be rusty.
How many surgeons like you would feel comfortable in the God forbid to do a willy-nilly tracheotomy?
I think almost on the spot.
Most plastic surgeons would.
Really?
Yes.
But remember, more than 50% of cosmetic surgery are done by non-plastic surgeons in this country.
And even in Beverly Hills, probably 60% don't really have any training necessarily in plastic surgery.
So all of those dermatologists or rheumatologists or general surgeons, they don't necessarily know what to do because they're not specifically trained, haven't been tested it, are not really certified in that.
So that's the problem, you know.
Is the people they've been doing zins, I know that nicotine can sometimes mess with recovery and blood vessels.
Is that starting to play any part in people that you're seeing?
You know, I thought that was going to be a problem.
But it's, if you're doing smokeless, you know, Zin nicotine, obviously we, I wouldn't operate on you.
But I haven't really seen an uptick in vascular compromise.
What you would expect from that thing.
Yeah.
So, I mean, we still ask.
So you have to sort of lie to your surgeon.
Yeah, I don't do it.
Because if you say, yeah, I do a nicotine patch.
Okay, well, I'm going to test you for nicotine.
Three days before, I'm going to cancel your case.
So you have to be offered for 30 days.
But, you know, I had a patient that I canceled.
She signed up for a tremendous amount of really interesting, challenging
revisional surgery.
And she really needed it done.
And we gave her a prescription for some men.
some narcotics. And the pharmacist wouldn't fill it. We went, what? So we ran what's called
it cures on her. Cures is this sort of test that we, we doctors can run on you to see what
prescriptions you had. We can do without your permission. Wow. And we're supposed to do it if we're
giving you narcotics. And she was on narcotics for last six months, like tremendous amounts.
And I said, okay, there's a problem here. You've got a major disorder here.
and so I canceled the surgery.
But had she not, had I not figured it out,
imagine all the pain she would have had post up
and what am I going to do?
She was already on.
There's nothing to give her.
There's nothing to give her.
She would have gone crazy.
It would have put her in the hospital.
You know?
Terry, since you were last on the podcast,
and by the way, for those of you that haven't listened
to that episode was unbelievable.
And we very rarely have a repeat, okay?
Because we don't like repeats.
You're fantastic.
Thank you.
We wanted to have you on again.
Amelia Perez, I don't know if you saw it,
but this movie came out.
It's all about how a drug trafficker transitions to lead a different life.
And simultaneously, because as Josh knows, I only watch TV shows 20 years later, my wife showed me
nip tuck.
And I'm watching niptuck, which I'm sure you're familiar with.
And I'm thinking to myself, okay, is this because there's an episode where a criminal
comes in and wants to have plastic surgery so they can sort of be off the radar?
Have you ever seen, has that ever happened to you?
Have you had somebody come into your office that sort of wanted to change identity?
No, I mean, no, because it doesn't really work, although some of the deep-plane facelifts are really making people look differently, different these days. Have you noticed that? Well, you define what that means deep-plane? Okay, so there's various kinds of facelps, right? The sort of original facelift is a skin-only facelift. You make incisions in front and behind the ear, and you simply lift up the skin and just pull it back, cut it off, and do it tight. Those don't last very long and they can look a little waxy and weird.
Then we started to go into the deeper layers.
Because when your face ages and you get facial deflation and droopinous, it's not just the skin.
It's all of the layers.
The skin, the muscle, the soft tissue, the fat, everything.
So the deeper you go and take the entirety of the face and put it back up, the more sort of restorative and the longer lasting theoretically it will be.
The problem is the deeper you go, the more swelling.
The deeper you go, the closer you are to the facial.
nerves, the closer you're out of the facial nerves, the greater the chance that you'll injure
them, you'll end up looking like you had a stroke, right? Which is a devastating complication
of face of nerve injury. So the other, but most of us who do them know how to do them with a
low risk of nerve damage, right? And so swelling, all right, lasts a little bit longer. But when you're
looking at some celebrities who will go unnamed, you can figure them out, they're looking
amazing, but they actually just don't look like themselves. It's sort of the, who is in, who's, don't
put baby in a corner. Remember the movie, Jennifer, what's her name? Who had her nose done? Yes. Jennifer
Gray, what was the movie? Dirty Dancing. Okay. She had sort of this nose. I don't know if you guys
are maybe too young to know this, but I don't know how you know it. But if she had her nose done,
well, she did Dirty Dancing, giant hit Big Star, Bern Patrick Swayze, right? Then she has her nose done.
She takes off sort of this ethnicity or her nose and she has more of a sort of a aesthetic nose with no bump.
and her crew was over instantly.
She didn't look like Jennifer Gray anymore.
Weird.
Done.
And so you look at someone like, for example, Lindsay Lohan.
She does look amazing, but she looks very, very, like, would you recognize Lindsay Lohan now?
I think Lindsay Lohan looks how Lindsay always wanted to look.
She looks gorgeous.
She don't look like a girl from Long Island no more.
Right.
She looks amazing.
And she looks, I think she has some of the.
the best work I've ever seen maybe.
And so is Chris Jenner.
Yes.
But, you know, do they look like, they're very good.
But if, you know, you have a certain look and it changes.
Her look definitely changed.
I would agree.
If it changed, you know, it may not devastate your career like it did with Jennifer
Gray, whose career was literally overnight ended, ended with that nose job.
You know?
Wow.
So if you got to be careful because if you like the way.
way you look and suddenly you're looking to your friends like, you look great, but who are you?
You know, you got to be careful with these kinds of facelifts.
What about like it's been alleged, but like someone like Brad Pitt looks spectacular.
Amazing.
And looks like himself.
He does.
It's just because you look at someone, I think they're about the same age as like Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt.
And I'll give them both credit.
Like I think Tom Cruise looks amazing too, but is okay looking like a guy in his early 60s
where Brad looks like he's 40.
Brad looks amazing.
You know, it's funny.
We always, I once did this very famous person and I did her facelift.
And she looked amazing.
Everybody said, oh, you did such a good job.
I would go, yeah, but she's like a 10.
If you operate on a 10 and you, it's like take off 10 years, what do you get?
You get Brad Pitt.
It's like cheating.
You know, you don't have to make Brad Pitt look different.
You better not make Brad Pitt look different.
Did you imagine take away Brad Pitt's Brad Pitt.
I mean, you're done.
You're never work in this town again.
It'll be a Jennifer Gray thing.
What is what is Brad Pitt doing?
Like what is Brad Pitt doing to look like that?
Well, I mean, I, you know, I don't talk about celebrities.
I don't know exactly what Brad Pitt did.
But to me, if I had a guess, I say he just had a really well done sort of natural
facelift, you know?
It looks amazing.
I mean, I'm, listen, I'm going to be 40 next year.
You look great.
I know you lost a lot of weight, right?
That was your thing, a ton of weight.
I did.
It doesn't.
God bless you.
It doesn't show in your face.
Well, you lost it young.
I did.
So it didn't affect your face.
I was very lucky.
As you know, I had a little blephroplasty two years ago.
Which looks great.
Shout out Dr. Groff.
Love him.
Oh, he's great.
Yeah.
He, he, I brought him on season something of botched.
He's a genius.
Brilliant surgeon.
Yes.
It's funny.
You're giving me the perfect transition.
I do have one little insecurity.
And we're going to have honest little corner right now.
stomach right?
Stomach.
Oh,
really?
Well, because I had a little
Oh, yeah,
a little thing done.
Okay, okay.
Is that I have a little skin around my chest.
Yes.
And I've watched you do one.
And I've done the gamut.
Sadly,
you're afraid of the scar.
It's not afraid of the scar.
It seems to me,
whether you're one of the greatest surgeons there are
or any other surgeon,
you are limited by just the realities
of where it is on the body,
anatomically.
And I've honestly, I've never seen it look amazing.
Yeah.
Seen it look better.
What do you think?
And should I take my shirt off?
Yeah, go ahead.
If you want to, if you're comfortable, I love to you.
Yeah, you can cut it out.
Hold on.
Let me move around.
Can I do some push-ups?
If you just give me a quick, give me a-
I don't know why I'm squatting.
What is the squat deal?
I don't know.
I also have a birthmark that looks like South America.
Do you judge, Dr. Debrose?
I'm now.
Me, judge.
You kidding?
Ready?
Here we go.
yeah so it's actually not terrible no you just have by the way you just have that that's a pretty easy sort of
you've done well you just need a little tightening i just walk around the pool like this i hold it back with
my arms my nipples are just like you could you know you're one of these staged people whereas
you could do just a little bit around the nip and then pull it up a little more can you turn my nips from
half dollars to dimes that yes but the
But here's where that gets very.
Josh is just slippery slope.
Josh is going to be.
Yeah, no, you look good.
You look good.
You just need a little, oh, that was for the push.
You need a little, just a little more tightening.
Really?
Yeah.
Okay, what about this?
Yeah.
Are you sure?
Oh, okay, there you go.
I make it look a little.
So you're right.
What you don't want, you need that hockey stick thing.
That's not good.
I know.
On a guy, women are happy to do that because they don't walk around with their tops off at the beach.
Right.
We do.
Right.
So they'll take the scars.
It's always, you know, is it worth it?
You know, does the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?
Your case, you're not comfortable with it.
So you can't fix it.
Really?
You can, but not without that little hockey stick thing.
On both sides.
Oh, yeah, because it goes off what we call laterally into the side wall.
So you have to go where it goes.
Unfortunately, you can't just do it with just an around-the-a-a-a-thing to get that sort of
of pulling in in all dimensions.
You have to chase it out
laterally out here
on the side of the chest wall.
They call me Joshi Keloid.
So I'm going to get a thick scar.
Probably.
I doubt it.
I feel like this area
because you're always moving,
it tends to get
to scar poorly, right?
Not that, you know where it tends
to keloid down the center.
It's funny because a patient
will come to my office
and they want all this surgery done
and they're a good candidate.
I inform them all this risk.
And they go, yeah,
you're going to do it in six months.
But in the meantime, would you take a little mole off in the center of my chest?
You go, oh, because this is a very high keylet.
And so you'd think if you take this little thing off into keyloids,
they're going to cancel the case because you think you're a loser.
And this is just a prone area to do it.
Right.
Yeah.
But someday, I will bet you that within 10, 15 years, maybe,
that will loosen up enough that you'll go, screw it, make that incision out.
Oh, is it going to get worse?
Well, I mean, all our skin.
Just naturally.
Yeah.
F, dude.
No, you're in good shape.
You know, you're not, your weight doesn't, you know, it's funny.
I think last time we talked was I fascinated with the GLP1 drugs?
Oh, let's, we're, we were in.
You guys chat, I'm going to get a fan real quick.
I'm schvitzing.
Yeah.
We were, I was on it, we spoke about it.
I'm still on it.
I've kind of plateaued.
I went from OZempic into Trezepetide.
I don't take enough of it.
What's your dose?
I'm happy with my weight.
I take 35 milligrams.
So you're on a.
compound. You're not on the regular one. I'm on the compound.
Yeah. It's hard to compare the compound. I've never been on a very high dose of any of them, though,
because I don't like that feeling, which is so counterintuitive to what the drug is. I don't like that
feeling that I can't finish a piece of chicken. So I'd rather just like, I'm living 50 pounds lighter than I was.
Isn't that wonderful? I would like, it is. I'd like to be 70 pounds lighter.
And what's your, what's your hemoglobin A1C? Oh, I have no idea.
Oh, because you never had a.
diabetes thing.
Yeah, no.
No, I know my blood work is good.
It's good.
I know my blood work is great.
Okay.
Yes.
Yes, I had that recently.
So I am obsessed with these drugs.
And I think these drugs are one of the most important medical advances in history.
I got so obsessed with it.
This is so me, by the way.
But I got so obsessed with it that I started talking about it in the media.
And Julian Michaels and I went back and forth.
She said, you shouldn't do these drugs.
I go, you don't know.
when you came on was when you were in the feud with jillian michael's that exact week okay so that funny so
i thought to myself you know i am a doctor i'm board certified i was board for certified in general
surgery board certified class surgery but i'm not truly an obesity medicine expert so if for me to with great
confidence talk really in the media about these drugs i should become board certified in obesity
so i actually took all the courses and i took the exam and i last known
November, I got board certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine.
Wow.
So this is like a true expert thing for me now.
I'm totally into it and I'm board certified and it's something that I think is really
important.
Even though it's not my career, I don't prescribe obesity drugs as a career, but I know everything
about them.
So I'm obsessed with these drugs and what they do for your general health above and
beyond what they do for obesity.
You're hot Dr.
Nassarden.
Wow.
I love this new chapter.
Yeah.

I'm waiting for the next one. Is it red at Trutide is the next one? That's the next one that I'm
waiting for you guys really know your stuff. It's a GLP 3, my geez. That's right.
The one you're on, Tersepotide. You know, it's the GLP-1, which is Ozempic and the GIP
So as you know, there's Osamaic and Wagovi.
That's the same drug.
That's a GLP one.
And then there's Monjaro and Zepbound, same drug, called, you know, that's the GIP and
GLP.
And those are amazing and they're powerful.
And but I'm into it for another reason.
Even if you're not overweight, I think it's the ultimate anti-aging drug.
Really?
The ultimate longevity drug, because it's all about insulin sensitivity and reducing
inflammation. So I'm very into this new thing that you can find all of people are talking about
on TikTok. It cracks me up, but microdosing. Low dose terseptitide. Low dose GLP ones and GIPs that are
cardioprotective. They're good for your brain, your heart, your lungs, your kidney. They're good for
addictions. They're good for everything. I'm convinced this is the next longevity drug of the future.
Fine. I do it. Yeah, it's really. Do it, Josh. Just me.
I do it.
Wait.
You do do it.
I've been doing it for the last two months.
What's your dose?
A micro dose.
Okay.
What the hell?
You've been keeping this for me.
I'm changing, okay?
Things have changed for me, Ben.
I'm glad you do it.
I'm glad you do it.
So do you feel so naked and afraid and alone.
I'm alone in the dark.
That's crazy.
It's a micro little cutesy.
It's a micro mini cutesy.
Okay.
So what do you notice?
What are you taking in what you do?
I haven't noted.
What about the food noise?
A little bit better?
Here's the thing.
I lost 100 pounds when I was 19.
Right?
Like I completed losing weight.
I've kept it off for 20 years.
Okay.
So it's a real lifestyle for me now.
And I'm a sober guy.
So like I know that food was probably just my avenue because like for most kids who are chubby,
like they overindulge.
But then when I lost the weight, I realized, oh, I could do this with alcohol.
I could do this with a million things.
So it's really, I've had to work on my brain.
What I've noticed is it's just like the real dirtbag food,
like the real gas station craving kind of is easier to sort of let go out.
Right.
But to your point, I take half of the minimum dose.
Right.
Shout out the great Craig Conover, hooking it up.
Yeah.
So you do exactly what I'm telling you, what I'm hot for.
Is that what you're doing?
Oh, but how many people do you know who do this?
Maybe in L.A.
You live in L.A.
Sure. So you might know a lot of people who microdose. But this is not a thing yet. Have you heard much about it in the media?
Only from like longevity people. But yeah, this Craig Conover, Conover Wellness is great peptide therapy longevity doctor.
And he sort of suggested this to me. And I was like, listen, I would at least like to see it and not just wear it as some badge of honor that I never touched it. And it's interesting. I don't know if I'll do it forever, but I'm interested to see.
Which one are you on? What are you on?
True's appetite. Yeah.
For Zepetka.
That's the monjohn.
Zep bound one.
Got it.
And so you're on half of the minimum.
And you take it once a week, same thing.
I even take it.
I do it like once every 10 days.
Yeah.
That's microdosa.
I'm so happy to hear you doing that because I am absolutely convinced.
And when you look at the data, okay, really not the chat GPT data, although that's good.
But there's another app called Open Evidence that if you have an NPI National
Practitioner number, that,
you get for free and you put in microdosing, you put into Zepatide, and its effects on inflammation
and life extension. The studies from the New England Journal of Medicine, this is real stuff,
are really profound how effective it is. It's just nobody knows about this yet. And I, you know,
I'm promoting Bosch Presents plastic surgery rewind right now, right? So I'm going, I was on the today show
Monday and I did KTLA this morning. I'm talking about that. What I really want to do, though, is go around
and talk about microdosing of these medications.
Because I think it's just not out there yet.
And I think if you could reduce your,
it's all about reduction of inflammation.
That's what this is about.
And because the more sugar you're exposed to in your circulation,
the more inflammatory effects you're going to get.
And that's the ultimate anti-aging thing to do.
So I love that you're doing that.
And was it overblown?
I feel like what we're finding out is like any diet,
that if you aren't supplementing with weight training
and getting enough protein in,
of course you're going to have skin sagginess
or lose muscle mass,
but that it wasn't any worse
from taking the GLP1.
Well, it is.
I'll tell you why.
Because you do know.
Tell us, go ahead.
I do know because when I first took OZempic,
Josh knows I was in a really,
really, really great gym groove too.
And then I went off it
because my wife and I were trying to have
our first child. He's now seven weeks old. We did that. I went back on. I went back on. And
since going back on, I have found it absolutely impossible to get back in a gym routine.
And when I tell you, I am achy, I am weak. And I know I have to do it. I have to. But without it,
it really is, it's not, it's not, it's bad. It's bad. I'm noticeably weaker. Yes. But let me just
tell you something about the GLP-1s and the Tersepitites and so on. So on a regular diet,
based on proper eating and exercise, the weight you lose is 75% fat, 25% lean muscle mass.
When you're on the GLP-1s, you lose 50% of the weight is lean muscle mass. And that's
the stuff you want to preserve, okay? Sure. So you want to lose fat and not muscle. So when you go
on one of these medications, even microdosing, the first thing you have to focus on,
is increasing your protein, which you have to do.
And the second thing is, excuse me, you have to do resistance training.
You have to beef up your lean muscle mass because these drugs will make you lose muscle.
And that's not good.
And that makes you older.
Not only is it makes your skin sag and so on and so forth, but you want to lose fat, not muscle.
So if you're going even on microdosing, up your protein and get in the gym.
And it could be bands.
It could be, you don't have to sit there.
and I lift weights.
When you first walked, you said, what do I do for workout?
So after this, I'm done for the day, you know, because I did PR today for Box Presents,
plastic surgery rewind, 10 o'clock on E.
And then Peacock after that.
This man knows how to sell.
Yeah, I know, you know.
But I, so we have a gym in this apartment, Heather and I moved into an L.A.
This really great gym at the bottom of this building you know of.
Beautiful building.
Yeah.
And I will lift weights for an hour and a half.
I mean, I'm 66, so I'm not going, but I do, you know.
Oh, and by the way, creatine.
I don't know if you're on creatine.
If you're not, 10 milligrams minimum.
Greatest thing ever, right?
Closest to the steroid you could possibly get without having any side effects.
Been around forever.
But recently, weirdly, has blown up.
And you get it from meat, naturally, right?
Yep.
But, yeah, I take it.
And I, Ben, stop taking it because his wife thought he was doing drugs.
She didn't like the look of it.
You were getting big?
No, I think, no, I think she just like saw, I like put like a little into a plastic bag because I was going on vacation and she literally thought it was cocaine.
Were you snorting?
I wish.
Now I'm thinking about it.
Josh, I think I need to go back on creatine.
You do.
That will make me want to work out.
You do.
Because when I was on creatine, I do, right?
You have to go back.
So, so anyway, I will lift weights for, I will have my creatine.
I have like 10 grams.
The ideal dose is five grams.
but anyway, I do a little more.
But if one is good,
it doesn't hurt.
Me and Derek, you broke it up, fun.
I know, right.
We're going to snort some pre-outine later.
But title.
I'll lift weights for an hour and a half,
and I will take out my iPad, get on the treadmill,
and do my zone two cardio,
which is, you know, 60% of your maximum heart rate
for 90 minutes.
And I'll spend three hours in the gym.
No, you will.
I will. And what's good is I'm an advanced stage of my career.
I'm very successful.
I don't need to worry about paying the overhead.
It doesn't, I don't care if I operate or not, but I do operate all the time.
But I'm more focused on what am I doing on a daily basis.
The minimum I will do is 60 minutes of cardio.
And I do this every day.
Now, nobody can do this because, you know, we all have lives.
You have kids and so on and so forth.
So I don't expect you to do this.
But you got to do something every day.
Three hour workout every day.
Every day is a week?
No, seven.
Wow.
Every day, every day.
And your wife must love it because you're out of the house.
That's true.
That's what my wife would love.
It's true.
Go to the gym.
Well, the gym's downstairs.
So it's been, ever since we moved up to Beverly Hills, it's been more convenient.
But this creatine thing, everybody, particularly women, should be on creatine, but it doesn't
work if you don't get more lean muscle mass if you don't do resistance training.
And it works beautifully in women.
The only downside with women is, and maybe even those of you, how often you.
and you step on the scale?
I try not to, but no, at least once a month.
Okay, but not every day.
Yeah.
If you step on the scale, you retain water, you're going to be three, four pounds heavier,
and you're going to think, oh, my gosh, I've gained all this weight.
It's the creatine.
I can't stand this.
It's just water weight.
But creatine.
I'm laughing because I have such a toxic relationship with my scale that sometimes I'll
weigh myself at night after a full day of eating.
Just in case it looks a little bit better.
I'm like, oh, not so bad.
Maybe in the morning.
You know?
Oh, so that's your baseline.
That's my baseline.
Oh, okay, that's smart.
So, yeah, I mean, but you have to lift weights if you're going to take creatine.
What about, and I pick on my Benny Boy because I just love him so much.
I love this man.
And he's amazing.
He's an amazing strides.
I give him a hard time because he loves a good supplement.
And so he'll take plenty of turmeric.
He was on a saffron kick for a while.
His stomach was like an Indian restaurant.
And he loves a good supplement.
But I say if you're not working out regularly, it's like.
A waste.
Why bother?
It's a garden hose on a fire.
Like working out far and away is the greatest longevity hack, yes?
If you could pick working out versus stop smoking, working out.
Wow.
Stay smoking versus not working out and quitting smoking.
Or rip a sig on the elliptical?
I'm saying,
I'm in.
Can you say part of fitness?
Start smoking, start working out.
Yeah.
No, I'm just saying it's the single most important life extension, health span extending activity, thing you can do.
For sure.
All right.
You got to do it.
I got to get back in the gym.
So my agent wants me to do a podcast, right?
Not because I have so much to talk about, because, but I do these experiments on myself.
and I come up with these conclusions, right?
And he wants me to do a podcast where I'm visually showing these experiments that I'm doing on myself.
For example, half my face, I'm going to do amorphias, okay?
And to tell you whether these new sort of non-invasive facial tightening things work or not.
But to this point, I went on creatine, and I didn't change my weightlifting at all.
And I just said, I'm going to do the same weights.
And so I do the same way it's because, you know, at my stage, my goal is not to get huge,
it's just to, is consistency, right?
Sure.
So I do this one weight thing.
You know, you sit, you sort of do this pushy thing.
It's sort of the easy equivalent to a bench press, but you sit and do it sitting bench
on a machine.
So I do four sets of 12 at 100.
Now, creatine, I'm up to 150 for the same effort.
Hell yeah.
50% stronger just from creatine.
in. Wow. I'm in.
And what? Do we have a brand that we're loving?
No. Do you have a brand? No.
Creatine monophosphate. Amazon.
I mean, I like the one called naked creatine, but it doesn't matter.
No. Any of them, they're all equivalent. Just go for the cheapest one.
There's nothing special about creatines, right?
But it's great for your brain.
You hear that, Josh. Nothing special.
Torn.
I love the one.
Unless, of course, you guys have a brand of creatine.
I just use it.
I'll say yours is the best.
Do we, Olivia, what's that?
There's a creatine.
I think we do maybe.
Omega 3, Momentus?
Yes.
You got to use.
Yeah.
Does it have omega 3 in it?
Yes, it does.
That's different because that's cool because now you're getting your omega 3.
So I would.
It's a combo.
That's like, that's cool.
I would endorse that.
Protein, creatine omega 3 is the Momentus 3.
It's fantastic.
That's very cool.
Yeah, it's one of your sponsors.
Yes.
Yeah.
No.
I think that's a wonderful thing to ask.
to it. So I 100% agree with that. But if you're just buying creatine, you don't go for the
expensive one. They're all the same. You know what I mean? Okay. Is there any plastic surgery
trend right now, anything that's popular that you think is going to, that you don't like,
that is going to have some bad. Yes. So last time I was on, I'm sure I talked about Brazilian
buttlifts that I hated. Yes. They're very dangerous. They're very dangerous. And
And that's because there's these blood vessels in the buttock that are not that deep,
that if you get into them, they go right into the vina cave, which is the main vein going back
to the right side of your heart.
And if you inject fat into those by mistake, and remember, it's a blinded procedure.
It's not like you're opening up the buttoe.
Oh, I'm going to lay it right here.
You put it through a teal incision and you go, here's hope and it goes in the right place.
You know, you don't know, right?
Right.
So if you get it into one of those veins and it goes up into the vena cava,
into your heart, to your lungs, you die instantly.
And, you know, I work for the California Medical Board,
and I do have a very big medical legal career
where I'm against doctors and for doctors.
Okay, I work both sides.
I just tell the truth.
I'm a medical legal expert.
Okay, in court, I'm in court all the time doing this stuff.
And even when done by the best surgeon under the best circumstance,
if you get in the vein, you probably will die.
And great surgeons have lost people in their office.
on the table from this procedure.
No procedure that has that possibility in my mind is worth it.
Having a bigger butt is not worth risking your life, okay?
So that one I talked about last time I was on the show.
Yeah.
I think, you know, people are still doing a lot of filler.
I just, we are at a, and on Plaster's Rewind, but when is it on?
It's on Wednesday nights at 10 p.m. on E, this new show.
a lot of our celebrities had a lot of filler done very early.
And you think filler, hyluronic acid, you can just inject hyloronidase,
which is an enzyme that just dissolves it, right?
No harm, no foul, don't worry about it.
Oh, first of all, it's a commitment.
If you can get scarring from it, it can migrate, it can get into the blood vessels,
it can give blindness.
And these things happen, okay?
They happen and they happen frequently.
And it can make you look older, even if you don't have a complication.
So, filler, we're doing too much filler in this country.
And patients are not being told the truth about how it should be done and should be doing less.
I still think it's fine.
If you do it in the proper places where the tissue is thick, stay away from the eyes.
Don't do it in the lower eyelids, you know?
And I would prefer you didn't do it in the lips at all.
But I think filler is much more dangerous than people, the plestrogens and other doctors are willing to admit.
So that's sort of number one.
And the reason I want to mention that is because how common is filler?
Yeah, very.
Very common.
I think it's just, and if you watch Plactery Rewind, you'll see how regretful these celebrities are about their filler.
So filler, the big new horizon in plastic surgery, you know, I went to med school 82 to 86, long time ago.
But if you would have told me when I graduated UCLA med school that in 2025, which is what, 39 years,
years ago, right? 86 to 25, 39.
Something like that.
No, 16 plus 25 is 41.
41, shit.
Anyway, excuse my language, that in 2025,
you're still going to be taking a scalpel,
cutting, lifting, cauterizing, destroying blood vessels
while a patient's under a chemical coma,
pulling back and stitching things closed.
I would say, oh, come on, 40 years from now, we'll be doing laser.
You'll get into this tube and all of a sudden you'll come out a younger version of yourself.
We're still doing the exact.
Yeah, we go a little deeper.
We do a deep plane.
Whoopty-do.
We still do the same instruments, same sutures, same trauma, same risk of complications as, in fact, more than ever before.
So we need to figure out, and we're slowly getting.
there, how to deliver energy to the skin, to make the elastic and collagen thicker, to do all
those things that nature does for you when you're very young, right? But we're still doing
with surgical techniques. It's crazy. That's where we're at. The problem is, you know, overpromise
and deliver, a new device will come out. They'll sell it to the doctor for 175,000 with the promise
that it's going to do this for the patient, right? And the doctor goes, okay, I will see, how much
cost me $8,000 a month on my lease payments on this new laser and they sell it to 2,000
patients and it doesn't really work or it burns them. Have you guys heard of these new devices
that you put underneath the skin, these J-plasma devices? You make a little incision. It's all about
skin tightening, right? The holy grail in cosmetic medicine is skin tightening, isn't it?
Yes, you can't relate. It's all skin tightening. I mean, if you could go to the face, no one ever
need a facelift. You wouldn't have to cut anybody open, right? Well, we started on the outside,
lasering and applying these energy transmission device. We said, well, what if we heat the skin
from the inside? Mm, makes sense. Heat it from the inside. Do it with either laser or this energy
transmission called J-plasma or some other kind of, you know, ultrasonic device. If you can get
this energy delivered to the inside, it will tighten the skin from the inside, right? Except this J-plasma,
I mean, we were, I saw nothing but burns on people for two years. In a body barbecue. It's
unbelievable. I'll tell you, you'll like this before we get to our what are you nuts. I have a
friend who's a surgeon who was on call for the ER. Someone gets brought in with a, they had had a tummy
tuck and they were having complications and it needed to be reopened. So they call it.
They call him my friend.
So she puts out a call to the plastic surgeon who did it, who's now on a trip.
Oh, it's flying.
And she goes, hey, I just want to, like, ask the doctor what their approach was so that I can go in and do something complimentary and not disrupt it too much because reopening it is less than ideal.
The nurse calls back and says, you know, the doctor's approach for a tummy tuck is it's actually patented the way he does it.
And so, oh my God, is intense.
You can't patent a surgical technique.
You can't patent cutting.
And wouldn't tell her.
My doctor friend said, you have him call me immediately.
Or I'm going to report him to the medical board.
Exactly.
And of course he did right away.
But she was like, patented.
What a joke.
Nuts.
You know, that's a marketing thing for patients.
There's a facelift surgeon here who will go unnamed.
who has he made up a name for his facelift that's based on his own name.
We've had him on the show.
Okay.
Never mind then.
Never mind then.
I'm not saying it's that guy.
I don't know.
But never mind because I was going to tell you some things, but I don't need to tell you some things.
It's good.
I would still love to know he hasn't come on twice.
Yeah, he hasn't.
He's not a repeat.
I mean, the guy I'm talking about is, you know, very talented, but, you know, he named
a thing after and charges.
in the multiple hundreds of thousands for this thing.
And like every other procedure,
it can go south on you, okay?
That's enough said.
And just, you know,
there's just a lot of stuff out there
that we plastic surgeons tell people.
I will say he was lovely.
That said, he was a master marketer of his own products.
Yeah.
But I mean, do you, do you don't do that.
You don't do that.
I mean, well, you could, okay,
you don't want to be marketed into a potentially life-threatening procedure.
Right. It's one thing that, you know, okay, I bought this car. Maybe I didn't like it. Maybe it's, I thought I'd be sexy driving around this car through marketing. They got to me, you know, I could look like James Bond in this car. A surgical procedure? I mean, I, but one could argue that I use my status on a reality television program and talk about how honest I am as a way to get patients. Well, he's so honest, maybe I should go to him.
We all like it just because you put on doctor.
That's very cynical, by the way, and it's not true, but one could say that even about me
that I'm here for marketing.
No, it's all because of how hard you are on Dr. Nassif.
I know.
That's why we love you.
I know.
I know.
You really grind his gears.
We love it.
But he can take it.
Well, here's a fun little cliffhanger because I hope you'll come back on.
Yeah.
And we've talked about this before, but I truly think we would need like almost an whole episode
on it, and I would love it if you'd come back on.
about how I had plastic surgery when I was 19 years old.
Yeah.
And I was badly botched.
And I learned something new about it from a recent surgery I had a new revelation.
Oh, tell me.
About the doctor, about, well, it's a whole, I'm making it.
Oh, you're going to leave.
Oh, come back.
When you come back?
Yes.
Oh, absolutely.
I love you guys.
It's a good story.
It's a good story.
Just so you know, not that I'm so special because I'm not, but I get asked to do podcasts
three to four times a week.
I really do.
I say no to every single one.
Didn't I just get asked?
And I looked at and I went,
well,
he talks about interesting stuff,
but I'm just too big.
When I heard you guys
wanted to chat again,
I go, what did I say?
I said, absolutely.
I love those guys.
I love that.
I'll come back.
I love you.
I'm telling you truth.
I'll come back anytime.
And I was glad that I got to do it with you.
And next time I'll come back to York
because I love coming out to New York.
And any excuse to come out there.
And maybe Josh will come to New York too.
Yeah.
Oh,
you go out there.
Usually once or twice a year.
Don't you love it out for you?
I'll come back.
Yeah.
We'll go out on me.
We'll go out.
I'll pick the restaurant.
Oh my gosh.
You probably eat in a very particular way, don't you?
No, I'm done with that.
You eat.
Oh, please.
Are you an eater?
I, am I an eater?
How could you not be in New York, right?
And how could you be on true's appetite and not be an eater?
I know.
I'm not on it for the longevity.
So true.
To lose weight.
Three of us in one recording studio, there'll be so much tea going.
on the amount of testosterone in that room.
By the way, are you on testosterone?
I'm not yet.
I'm 39.
Oh, yeah, you're way too early.
Yeah, way too.
Yes, but some people just do it anyway, you know.
And just warn me before this dinner.
Give me two weeks so I don't have my treseptit for two weeks and I'm really hungry.
You have so many good restaurants there.
Oh my God.
We do.
Yeah, I'm going out in two weeks with my wife.
She's going to go and watch what happens live because Wednesday nights at 10 o'clock on E is Plast Surgery
Rewin.
and Thursday nights, my wife's
Real Housewives of Orange County.
And that starts tomorrow night,
interestingly enough.
Our couple.
Well, so we go to New York
and she does the whole Bravo thing
and I eat.
Oh, I love it.
That sounds great.
Are you like a cold plunge?
We should send him to live method.
Yes.
I love it.
We have it's literally,
you'll be the only person in there.
He spent like $5 million making cold plunges,
steam rooms and saunas.
It fits like their,
There's nobody ever in there.
I really want to go.
By the way, despite the fact that I'm into all of this stuff
in exercise, physiology, and health and wellness,
I've never done a cold plund.
And I know the benefits of cry.
I mean, I just never done it.
We love it.
We're doing it.
Oh, I know.
We're going to tell you.
We're doing it.
It's happening.
Yeah.
It's already in the works.
I'd love to.
Okay.
So our one of your notes moment of the week are gripes with people, places and things.
Yes.
Big and small, whatever's sticking in your craw.
Ben and I'll start.
You have time to think.
Dr. Terry, there's no wrong answer.
How do you think of this every week?
No.
I'm just constantly annoyed. Mine is, I very famously said, if I have a bagel, Terry, right before I
podcast, I can't remember anything. I don't know what it is. I might have a light gluten
intolerance. Josh once brought me brus and daughters on the podcast. I couldn't think.
I'll tell you what it is. Tell me. Tell me what. What is a bagel? A bagel is a carb and is the most
pure, easy to digest carb with, you know about glycemic, I won't bore you with glycemic index,
but do you know what glycemic index means? Too late, I'm going to bore you anyway.
Yes, for me.
More easily it gets digested and turned into pure sugar and elevates your blood glucose,
your blood sugar, the higher the glycemic index.
Bagels are extraordinarily easy to break down and turn into pure sugar, and you get this
inflammatory brain thing.
There you go.
And that's why I take turmeric preventively.
preventatively, and it helps me. But I'm in a house. We're in the Hampons for the summer.
My sister-in-law Jackie is a fantastic baker. Every morning, she's a fresh loaf of sourdough.
I want you to know, Terry, right before I did back-to-back podcast, I ate a thick sandwich,
sourdough bread, turkey, mustard, lettuce, whatever. My brain is perfect. Oh, that's a blue thing,
probably. Yeah. So now my what are you nuts is to this bread, to these bagels. I'm going around
buying this process junk.
It's making me think that I can't eat sandwiches during the day.
All of a sudden I have just like basic, nice, home-cooked bread.
Josh, what are you nuts?
Right.
Love that.
What are you nuts?
My what-you-nuts is if you have a Bible quote on your business card.
Listen, you're not selling me.
I don't care how many things you're trying to sell me with these.
Listen, just come in.
I need an exterminator, not a proverb, okay?
I'm glad you have a favorite saint,
but can you just come in and do my drywall?
I would agree with that one too.
You know what I mean?
The separation of church and state, would you?
I agree with that one.
Okay, I got one.
All right.
So as a callback, you know,
I'm going right from here to the gym, right?
So I'm very careful about,
I go in the gym and I put my AirPods in
and I listen.
I have a personal moment.
I listen to my music.
I do the YouTube.
thing or whatever and I work out.
There are people who come in and A,
we'll just talk on their phone as if we can't hear them.
Yes.
Or B, with a speaker.
One of these Bose speakers and now I'm listening to their music and Newsflash,
I don't like your music.
And so personal space, personal audio space is not respected in the gym many times.
Terry, gym etiquette is the ultimate,
what are you nuts?
What are you nuts?
What are you nuts?
We've both been in steam rooms where people are on their speaker phone, taking a call.
See what I mean?
Just that.
And then can I have one more?
I'm just there trying to cruise.
One more.
One more.
I am a major restaurant person.
I live to go out to dinner, okay?
Don't bring me into the restaurant.
Take me back to a table that is right next to the bus stand.
Yes.
Agreed.
I feel like I'm nuts.
What do I work here?
Yeah.
You know, it's right here.
you're getting plates, you're getting silver.
What are you nuts?
I'm eating here.
Put me in a better part of the restaurant.
Thank you.
See, you said, how can you come up with so many?
What are your nuts?
Is it because we're constantly agitated?
We go through life, seeing what's wrong.
Yes.
And then we fix it.
That's what it is.
It's our biblical verses.
What are your nuts of your biblical verses?
Let's be honest.
Absolutely.
Terry, it was an absolute pleasure.
Please remind people again what to watch,
where to watch it, where to follow you, and then we'll close up the show.
Okay, so new show called Botch Presents, Plastic Surgery Rewind, Wednesday nights, 10 o'clock
on E. And then I don't really post on my Instagram, but I'm going to start doing these
experiments and posting them. So you go to Dr. DeBrow and you can see it on YouTube and TikTok,
and I'm going to let you know what works and what doesn't work in these really interesting,
quick videos. They're going to answer a lot of questions that you've always wondered.
about, including like peptides.
Love it.
Yeah.
Including, you know, should you eat protein before carb?
Should you go for a walk after a meal?
What does it really do to your blood glucose consecration, so on and so forth?
Lots of interesting things are about to come out.
So that's my thing.
Love it.
Well, folks, if this episode wasn't five stars, what are you nuts?
