What is the highlight of human civilization?
Don't check your stocks. Do not check your stocks today. It wouldn't be a good day to do that. But let's get the comments working. Do-do-do-do-do-do. Do-do-do-do. All right. Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum. Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take a chance on taking it up to another level, all you need is a cup or a mug. You'd think I would have memorized this by now. A cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice, a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine of the day.
What is the latest news about Joe Biden's health?
The thing that makes everything better is called the simultaneous sip. And it happens right now. Go. Tremendous. Incredible. All right. Well, big story of the day. You may have heard that Joe Biden... It has prostate cancer, but it's not the good kind. It's the bad kind. There's something you need to know about prostate cancer. If it's localized and it hasn't left your prostate, it's 100% curable.
How does prostate cancer affect Joe Biden?
But if it leaves your prostate and spreads to other parts of your body, in this case, Joe Biden has it in his bones, It is 100% not curable. So it's not curable at all. So I'd like to extend my respect and compassion and sympathy for the ex-president and his family because they're going to be going through an especially tough time. It's a terrible disease. It's going to get very painful for the president if something else doesn't take him out first because he's a certain age. One of the things I've been watching is how terrible the public is. And I'll tell you, there's no sympathy for Joe Biden for a lot of people. It's hard to watch. especially because the public has all decided to become prostate experts.
What are the public reactions to Biden's cancer diagnosis?
The number of people who have said things that I'm pretty sure are not right is kind of shocking. And I have to say that even some of the doctors who have appeared on social media and on the TV, I don't think they're right either. I'll tell you why in a little bit. But the big question is, how long does it take to go from a clean bill of health to stage four prostate cancer? So I heard one doctor say it would take seven to 10 years or something like that. I don't think that's right. I think there's actually a tremendous variability of how long it takes to go from localized in the prostate and your PSA spikes to, uh-oh, it is spread to your bones. I'll give you some more information about that in a minute. I guess his doctor, Kevin O'Connor,
Biden's doctor, said back in August of 2024, said that he had a clean bill of health and he was just looking good. So is it, you might ask yourself, is it possible that that he was not showing signs in August of 2024, but that between then and now, that he not only showed signs, but that it had spread to his bones. And the answer is, yeah, that's possible. I don't think it would be too common, but it's probably possible, because I think I spent some time on Grok. There's a very wide A very wide... variability. Now, one of the things that you might not be aware of is that sometimes the biopsy itself can be the cause of the spread in cancers in general. Because sometimes if the cancer is in the prostate, I think there's like a 5% chance or something like that, that just messing around, taking a sample might be what releases it into your blood. No reason to believe that's what happened with Biden, but you never know.
But arguing that it has been something that he's known about for a long time would be a gaffe he made three years ago where he said in public that he has cancer. But I think he was just misspeaking, but maybe not. Maybe he accidentally said the truth. I don't know. And then his brother, Frank Biden, has admitted that, in his opinion, that Joe Biden withdrew from the presidential race due to serious health concerns. but he wasn't specific about which health concerns. I would think that his cognitive concerns would be enough not to run for president, but he may have had more concerns than that.
