What is discussed at the start of this section?
Wave. I'd be happy for him to find some kind of a sports job.
I bet you would. You want him to be watching SportsCenter? Yeah, you're like, get a job at SportsCenter. See if they'll give old dad a tour. I bet you get to take someone around the office every once in a while. Maybe you bring in old dad. Yeah, hey, I'll give pa a chance.
Okay. What's going on?
Yes, we just learned off camera, and maybe people will see it in this episode. I think it's kind of starting to go right now. Where's my camera? This one?
Zoom.
I have developed an eye twitch.
Yeah. And you have one too? I have three weeks of eye twitching. What is going on? I don't know. Here are the things that it could be, people say.
And people are loving to tell me what it is, by the way.
Everyone's an expert on eye twitch. Yeah.
Everyone has a PhD. Well, what I love is you tell someone, like, oh, my eye's been twitching lately, and they go, you know what it is. Like they love to tell you. 100% they know. Like their dad's like an eye twitch specialist and they're like in the family business.
Ocular musculature is their absolute specialty. They love to go, well, have you had water? Like they love to pitch water like you've never heard of that. And can I say something? No one alive drinks more water than I do. I'm saying. I'm guzzling. I'm putting water away. I'm guzzling.
What causes an eye twitch and how do people react to it?
Yeah, I'm absolutely pounding water. I don't drink alcohol.
Yeah.
I like water. I go to the bar. I have a water. I have a Diet Coke at worst. So there's no way that it's lack of water.
Yeah.
Could it be lack of sleep? Absolutely. Totally. I don't sleep.
I got like 10 hours last night, though.
You did?
10 hours last night.
Is that a very rare occasion?
Yes. I'm trying to do better now because of the iTwitch.
Yeah, because I'm three weeks into the Twitch, and I'm like, I'm ready for it to stop.
It's really annoying.
Yeah.
I'm feeling like... I almost said suicidal, and that felt not... That felt not true.
I was like, actually, we shouldn't say that. It would be a rough loss to have to explain that to people, to be like, why did he do it? Like, sometimes his eye twitch. Eye twitch can be really affecting, though. People don't realize that. I think any chronic situation, like, you don't really realize how bad it is until it's like, oh, now this has been happening for a month. Yeah. Anything for a month is bad. You know what I mean? You got a little scratch here, it's not a big deal. You're still scratching a month later, you're thinking about... You're thinking about ending it. Ending it. You're like, what if this is my new normal? What if my eye never not twitches again? Your brain is bouncing. You're like, you spiral out into an awful fantasy life where like your eye is twitching at your grandson's bris or something.
Why did I say that? Yeah. No, it really, every time anything happens to me, like if I get a sore throat, I go, the thing that stresses me out is not that it's happening now. I go, this is forever. 100%. I go, oh, this will never be, I'll never be well again. This is the beginning of the end.
But you're young. Oh, sure. So you have, you're going to go through things that will change. Well, you'll have little blips, but then you'll be better.
How does sleep impact health and well-being?
I'm, it's all, everything's happening to me. My bones are decomposing. Every single injury I have is a permanent, like my, both my ankles, my knees. I play hoops. I hoop it up. Yeah. You playing b-ball at all? No, no. My knees and ankles are good right now. I'm constantly in pain. Yeah. What, how old are you? I am 40. You're 47? Can you believe it? I did not know you were 47. And I look like this? I did not know you were 47. Are you crazy?
You look great.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh, you look spry.
Yeah. Are we canceling the podcast over now?
Oh my gosh.
Shut it down.
That was so much fun talking to you, dude. This was a great episode. We actually should put out like a five minute episode one week. I think that'd be really funny. Just it's five minutes of interview and then it's all the ads. Just back to back to back. My eye is twitching now. That's most people. Is it? I don't see it.
