Chapter 1: Who is Sam Itshaki and what is his expertise in male enhancement?
Okay, guys, Sam Itzaki here today, CEO of the Dr. Joel Kaplan Company, a brand that has helped over 100,000 men maximize their sexual performance. Thanks for coming on, man. Thank you for having me, Sean. Yeah, we're going to talk about a lot of fun stuff today, right?
Yeah, definitely.
How'd you get involved with this stuff?
Yeah, so I have 20 years of experience, both personal and professional, with male enhancement. And for those who don't know, male enhancement is the practice of increasing sexual performance, specifically increasing size and erection quality. Over those 20 years, I've tried a lot of products related to male enhancement. I've tried penis pumps, cock rings, extenders, even shockwave therapy.
I don't even know what that is.
Well, we can get to it. So yeah, and I'm here to tell you what works, what doesn't, and what's actually safe.
Yeah, because you've helped tens of thousands of men now at this point, right? Yes. So you probably learned a lot by yourself, plus all the people you've helped.
Yeah, my mission is to teach men about erection health, what happens when you don't take care of yourself, and what you can do to reverse it.
Yeah, erection health is a big topic because a lot of people are experiencing issues these days, right? Yes. Yes.

Chapter 2: How do male enhancement pumps work and what was Sam's first experience?
Yeah, the pills seemed kind of sketchy to me.
They are sketchy. First of all, most of them flat out just don't work. There is no magic pill that will work overnight. It just doesn't exist. And yeah, let's not get into gas station pills.
Oh, God. Because those could be dangerous. Yeah, who knows what's in those? Right. I'm sure they're not testing what's in that.
Oh, yeah, they're not. Yeah, but I would love to tell you how I got into it all.
Please.
So... So one day my wife was away for the weekend and I was home alone, a little bored. And so I decided to walk into an adult store for the first time in my life. I wasn't expecting anything. I didn't know what I was looking for. I was just curious. So I walk in and I just start browsing. Didn't know what I was going to get. I just want to explore. And And I see this huge penis pump.
So it was like this big. Like who needs this, right? Yeah. So that was, I thought it was hilarious, but I was also curious about it. So I walked up to the cashier and asked him, is this for people with a problem or is this something that anyone can use? And he just looked at me and said, dude, anyone can use it. That's the whole point. So I bought it.
No research, no expectations, just pure curiosity. Now, before I tell you my experience when I pumped for the first time, let me just quickly explain how penis pumps work. Because if you've never used one, you need to know this. So an erection happens when blood rushes to the penis. When you use a penis pump, the pump draws even more blood to the penis.
And so if you're at 100%, you're erect state, right? And you put the pump on, you pump.

Chapter 3: What are the common problems with typical male enhancement pumps?
You know, you're just, you're seeing some results, you're feeling some results, but you don't know if the pressure is too high. Right. And so you can injure yourself. And that's actually what happened to me. Specifically with a water pump, there's no gauge. I kind of liked it because I can use it in the shower, but I end up hurting myself. I had to stop pumping and I couldn't have sex for a week.
Damn.
Yeah.
And you couldn't get hard?
Yeah, I couldn't get it hard. It kind of... before my penis alone. What? Yeah. But it went away. It was very temporary. Luckily, it was temporary, right? And, you know, this is just to show you that it's important to get the right pump, right? Yeah. Now, I'm not someone who just gives up you know, when I fail. So after that happened, of course I gave it a week to recover.
Everything went back to normal. Um, I basically did a deep dive. I started researching on online forums. There are communities of people who talk about penis enlargement and they all share stats about their growth journey. Yeah.
On Reddit, right?
Reddit too. Yes. There are forums dedicated to it and Reddit is a huge place for it. Yeah.
Hmm.

Chapter 4: How did Sam discover the Dr. Joel Kaplan pump and become CEO?
Yeah, this is your camera.
Oh, thanks. So that's the smaller size. And we have various sizes to accommodate everyone and anyone. So... Yeah, so I got a pump with a cylinder that is custom fit for my size. And basically, as you use it, you grow and you basically graduate. You upgrade just the pump tube. You don't have to buy a whole new pump. You're not stuck with the same pump.
You just get the next cylinder and you take the pump off.
So you started at this one?
No, I started with the medium, which is the average. It actually fits more than 80% of men.
Damn. Yeah. So it's... What does this two mean?
That means two inch in diameter. Oh, in girth? Yes. And that actually means there's extra room around it. Got it. So most people are not two inch in diameter. They're actually a little smaller. And so when you upgrade, you just take the pump from one cylinder and you just, excuse me, put it in the other.
Oh, nice. Yeah. I like that.
Yeah.

Chapter 5: What are the three main reasons men use male enhancement pumps?
Yes.
Wow.
Um, you know, if you take it for years, like a lot of different pills. Yeah.
You get immune to it.
Yeah, exactly. Um, so yeah, they either, either it stopped working or they can take it for medical reasons because of other medications or heart problems. And so they buy a pump. And the thing is, pumps are FDA cleared to treat erectile dysfunction.
Really?
Yeah. So you can use them to get a harder, you know, a bigger and harder erection for sex. Okay. And actually, pumps existed before vagrant cells. Back in the days, that was the solution for erectile dysfunction.
So these have been around for a while.
A long time. It's extremely proven.

Chapter 6: What medical options exist for erectile dysfunction besides pumps?
Have you ever heard of Trimix?
No.
Okay. So Trimix is an injection that you basically have to stab yourself in the dick every time you want to have sex. What? Yeah. This is not like PRP or anything like that. Every single time you want to have sex, you have to inject yourself.
It sounds painful.
It is. It's painful. And you know what? The long-term effects of it, it's actually bad because when you repeatedly inject yourself with stuff, you actually create damage. Yeah. So... Eventually that stops to work too, because you create scarring in your erectile tissue. It can lead to curvature, right? Things like that. And it can become ineffective for that reason.
And so when Trimix doesn't work anymore, you go back to your doctor and your doctor is going to just tell you, okay, the next step is to cut open your dick. Yep. The next step is a very serious surgery where they put an inflatable device in your penis. to create an artificial erection. Wow. It's not even your erection.
So every time you want an erection, you have to press something in your scrotum to kind of shift fluid into that device, right? And it's, again, it's not even your erection. So it doesn't feel as good. It's not as stiff. It's just something that, you know, people do because they have to. They don't have any other choice, right?
Not to mention that surgery has very, very serious potential side effects, right? Like the risk of infection. I've seen in one of those conferences, I've seen pictures of what it looks like when one of the surgery patients doesn't go well when the patient gets infected. It's horrifying. Do not ever Google that kind of procedure, surgery, or what an infection looks like.
You will be horrified for life. Oh, man. So, yeah. So, you know, again, pills are temporary. Trimix, you're just creating scarring tissue. It's,

Chapter 7: What are the risks and drawbacks of ED injections like Trimix?
Do the pumps help fix curvature?
Yes, pumps can definitely help fix curvature and so do extenders.
And this is the extender right here? Yes, that's the extender. So how does this work?
It's something that you use while flaccid. So you basically put the penis through this hole here.
Yeah.
And then here and right below the head of the penis, you just secure it and it keeps the penis stretched.
Okay.
Yeah. So that fixes curvature. It also is very good for enlargement, specifically for length.
Really? Yeah. Only when you're soft.

Chapter 8: How can pumps improve erection quality, size, and reverse atrophy?
Wow. That's nice, man.
Don't do it.
What are some myths you see on social media about this type of stuff?
I think the first myth is that people don't believe it works. And it does.
I mean, you used it yourself. You grew from it. You probably know hundreds of people that have used it.
Oh, way more than a hundred. I know tens of thousands of people who have used it.
And all of them experienced some growth?
Yes. Almost all of them. There is the occasional person who doesn't, but it's extremely rare. And actually, we're the only company that offers some more guidance. I mean, some instructions, and I'll get to that. And coaching, right? So to get the benefits from a pump, you need three things.
You need a high quality pump, something that's medical grade, something with a pressure gauge, because you need to know what pressure you're applying. Otherwise you can hurt yourself. And you definitely need a custom sized cylinder or cylinder that is sized for you. And let me just show you something real quick. This is something I know that not everybody can see it, but I'll try to describe it.
