the next uh medication and god only knows the next vaccine yeah i'm actually a little i don't angry with myself i think of the way to describe it that i've not emphasized diet exercise more i've always mandated it for myself but i've not right publicly done anything with it i'm not so it is time um the other thing
You very kindly were the source of introducing us to RFK Jr., which was sort of a life-changing kind of experience getting to know him. I know you know him very well. Do you have any plans to do anything? Are you going to Washington? Can you tell us?
Well, I can tell you, I've been offered a number of very compelling positions working directly with Robert Kennedy Jr. At this juncture, I have not yet. not accepted or pursued any particular one of them for a number of reasons. I was very, very interested and I remain extraordinarily interested in serving as a Surgeon General. It's a position that I believe has been wasted for decades.
It is one of the most important positions and most people cannot remember a Surgeon General since C. Everett Koop back in the 1980s. We just went through five years of the worst public health crisis that we have ever experienced, and the Surgeon General was nowhere to be seen for five years. This is a problem. So I was very, very interested in pursuing that.
As you know, President Trump has made a different choice and has nominated Jeanette Nashwat, somebody who you and I both know. It remains to be seen whether or not she will make it through the confirmation process, but I have every reason to believe that she will, and hopefully she will take a different approach to previous Surgeons General who have remained totally absent.
That is a role that demands somebody who is an excellent communicator, somebody who tells it like it is, somebody who can become the trusted, measured voice of America's doctor. And that's a role I really had hoped that I would have a chance to play.
The other roles are not compelling enough for me to pick up, change my life, give everything up, and move permanently to Washington, DC, and lose all of these platforms, because that's what would happen. So for me, communication is key. Getting the truth out to people in a way that they can understand it is something that I consider to be a skill set.
And so the idea for me to be stuck in an office somewhere writing policy papers or working on health care policy isn't, I don't believe, the best use of my passions and my skills. Right.
Do you have recommendations? I mean, I'm sort of interested in what all of us can do to support the changes that RFK and Mehmet Oz, I hope, are going to institute, and hopefully Jeanette even too. And are there things specifically that you and I can do Do you think that would support them in the meantime?
Yeah, I think the most important thing we can do, Drew, is to continue what we've been doing, which is getting information, really fostering conversation, fostering the dialogue, fighting against...
the cancel culture this censorship right the things that that we you know god only knows the mainstream media is still even with trump in the office they are still going to be under the thumb of big pharma big pharma owns the media they own the medical journals they own the medical schools
So the thing I believe we can do, and that's what I was referencing, I'm not willing to give up my platform to speak openly and honestly unless I'm offered another platform that would be even bigger and better. And that would have to be a forward-facing platform. really out there on a daily basis in front of a microphone with the opportunity to speak and communicate with the American public.
And I think in the meantime, that's something that you and I can continue to do on this platform, as well as the rest of social media and everywhere that you and I speak out with regard to our association with the wellness company, the podcasts that we do, the news interviews that we take. And I think that that's critically important.
Yeah, there is a big shift coming, it feels like. I've been fighting for California and Los Angeles in particular for a long time. I've stayed here for the fight. For the first time, I'm sort of hopeful that there might be an opportunity here given what has happened. This is the debacle since the debacle. Now we have the fire debacle. We have the virus debacle. We have the vaccine debacle.
And now we have the fire debacle. And you know, you go ahead.
you know, I'm more, I'm very biblically based. So I've kind of lost track, however, on which, which plague we're on. You know, we, we, we did pestilence and we did pestilence and flood and fire. I think famine's next. I got to get my, I got to actually, you know, review. I, I think we, I think, I think we're up to famine at this point.
Locusts may be coming as well, but I'm in California right now. And I, I don't, mean to imply that I'm making light of any of this. I am actually horrified and have been very distressed in the past 72, 96 hours with regard to what we're seeing with these fires.
Although I am not personally in an area where we would be in danger, we're far enough from LA, but I am watching the homes of good friends and colleagues literally burned to the ground. people whose lives have been devastated. And it is largely the result of unbelievably poor management.
The idea that the, you know, Karen Bass, the mayor of LA would have cut, you know, nearly $20 million out of the fire response budget. And at the same time, deploy resources towards building DEI and coming up with a point system where you got more points for hiring this minority person who might fit the gender identity, politics, whatever it is, the DEI initiative.
taking precedence over actually having water in the damn fire hydrants. I mean, that is unconscionable. And I've really, really been troubled by it.
