We got to pop bottles. And I also know when I go over to somebody's house and they music real loud. Like, why is everything so loud? That's when I know I was getting old. And also, when I discovered
Starting point is 00:04:40 baseboards in my house, like I didn't know. I was just living life in apartments. I didn't realize I had to clean a baseboard. And I finally figured out what that was. I was like, yeah, you're getting old. Yeah, for myself, there's a couple of things. One, when I drive now, I listen to the traffic report
Starting point is 00:04:57 to see what the traffic's going to be. Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Also, I watch the news to see what the weather's going to be. Okay, okay. Also, if I'm going somewhere, like I'm touching a long flight, I watch what I eat. Oh.
Starting point is 00:05:09 Meaning, like, if I know if, like, let's say I like cheesecake and I want cheesecake before I catch a flight, the person sitting next to me is going to have a bad flight. Like, there's certain things I know when I drink too much, I know I'm going to have to go to the bathroom. Like, there's certain things. The nap thing is always one. I do the old man basketball. So, you got six kids yes um two boys four girls and when i play my kids in basketball i no longer am competitive real like i back them down like my
Starting point is 00:05:35 dad used to do me just old man style and just kind of just do like a hook shot to beat them because i'm tired i don't i don't want to play with them no more i'm tired like i just want to win and then go. Those are a lot of them. And then I got tennis elbow and I haven't played tennis in 20 years. Okay. And I think that's
Starting point is 00:05:50 an old man's injury, tennis elbow. Yeah. So I got tennis elbow right now. Charlamagne? I was born in 1978. So I thought the question was what can't we do anymore

Starting point is 00:06:09 Can somebody, where are my knees? Can my knees help me? Yeah, when you get frustrated. What can I do anymore? Damn near everything. And especially everything I don't want to do. And it'd be the littlest things. I realize now why our parents used to be in the living room,
Starting point is 00:06:23 and they would call us no matter where we was at in the apartment or the house or the trailer just to get get them some water literally right there i'm talking about like right there a foot away from you but boy when you be on that couch after a long work week or after a long day you don't feel like getting up to do it so come use your little young legs and get it for me. Another thing I can't do anymore at my age, small talk. I don't want any small talk. I have no problem either sitting around in silence or if you're talking to me about something I don't care about, I might tell you shut the F up right in the middle of the conversation
Starting point is 00:06:55 because I don't have time for the small talk. I don't care in no way, shape, or form. And you know another reason why I knew I was getting older? I started wearing Crocs. Oh, yeah. I started wearing Crocs. When I wore Crocs, I was like, look at them ugly-ass, old-ass was getting older? I started wearing Crocs. Oh, yeah. I started wearing Crocs. When I won Crocs first, I was like, look at them ugly ass, old ass people shoes. Nothing wrong with Crocs.

Starting point is 00:14:57 Who's in the house? No, I thought you said somebody was taking your butt. Oh, God. I was always going to take somebody's butt. Because you're talking about farting in the D.C. You farting about who in the house hello who's this hey it's kd from milwaukee hey kd from milwaukee we're talking about signs you're getting old well i know i'm only 30 and it's a bad example for sure i gotta carry a kit around with me that got biofreeze uh ice packs all of that why what was you doing in your 20s well i was always a sports head so i mean recently like probably like a year and a half ago
Starting point is 00:15:34 i was at a track meet and they had like a little parents relay and i was like you know what i think i still got it i started running i got 50 meters of the 100 meters, and all I know is I was on the ground next. How old are you? I pulled my hamstring and I ain't been the same thing. How old are you? I just turned 30 in February this year. Man, y'all is babies, man. If y'all don't cut it out.
Starting point is 00:15:54 I will tell you another sign is always going to the doctor. If I get a pain, an injury, or any funny feeling, I go straight to the doctor. I'm just having good health insurance. That's the bad news. I know. Plenty of people who would love to just go to the doctor just having good health insurance no I was many people who would love to just go to the doctor that whenever they feel something I'll go to the ER if I get something hurt too much I go straight to the ER I'll tell you what another good sign is when you go to the doctor you get a good report back man I got one Monday okay so overall my results are
Starting point is 00:16:22 excellent despite a high calcium score for your age, there's only minimal plaque in your heart arteries. Furthermore, your cholesterol profile is excellent and well below goal on your current statin medication and aspirin, which I would continue. Your blood pressure and heart rate are those of a man 20 years younger. All these factors contribute to a very low 10-year cardiovascular risk of only 3.5%. Optimal for men of your age would be 3%, so you are in very good shape. What about your butt, though? Salute to Dr. Puma and everybody at Soarin' Medical. What about your butt, though?
Starting point is 00:16:53 Man, shut up, man. Your colonoscopy. That's a mask. I did that already. I got no polyps, no redness, no nothing. I think you need a second opinion. This booty don't. Brown.
