1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,233
Welcome to live well with UCI Health.

2
00:00:02,233 --> 00:00:04,800
My name is Gina Grad with Alt 98.7

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:06,033
and iHeartRadio.

4
00:00:06,033 --> 00:00:06,900
We are here today

5
00:00:06,900 --> 00:00:08,366
with two very special guests:

6
00:00:08,366 --> 00:00:09,733
Doctor Elsa Camarillo,

7
00:00:09,733 --> 00:00:10,333
a board-

8
00:00:10,333 --> 00:00:12,500
certified interventional pulmonologist,

9
00:00:12,500 --> 00:00:13,600
and Doctor Kelly

10
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,500
Fairbairn, a board-certified

11
00:00:15,500 --> 00:00:16,866
thoracic surgeon.

12
00:00:16,866 --> 00:00:18,700
Thank you both so much for being here.

13
00:00:18,700 --> 00:00:19,933
Thank you for having us. Thank you so much.

14
00:00:19,933 --> 00:00:21,533
This is going to be very informative

15
00:00:21,533 --> 00:00:22,133
for all of us,

16
00:00:22,133 --> 00:00:23,800
and I'm just going to jump in

17
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,533
with the question

18
00:00:25,533 --> 00:00:26,533
that I'm just going to assume

19
00:00:26,533 --> 00:00:28,233
everybody wants to know.

20
00:00:28,233 --> 00:00:31,233
First of all, what is a thoracic surgeon?

21
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,166
A thoracic surgeon is somebody that

22
00:00:34,166 --> 00:00:36,433
specializes in operative interventions

23
00:00:36,433 --> 00:00:39,500
for lung cancer, lung infections,

24
00:00:39,900 --> 00:00:41,033
esophageal cancer,

25
00:00:41,033 --> 00:00:42,500
any tumors in the chest,

26
00:00:42,500 --> 00:00:43,466
things like that.

27
00:00:43,466 --> 00:00:46,366
So the thorax is a thing.

28
00:00:46,366 --> 00:00:47,000
The thorax is a thing.

29
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,000
Great I'm going to write that down.

30
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,166
And pulmonologists

31
00:00:50,166 --> 00:00:52,433
I assume has to do with the heart...

32
00:00:52,433 --> 00:00:53,900
the breathing.

33
00:00:53,900 --> 00:00:55,900
Yes, more so the breathing.

34
00:00:55,900 --> 00:00:58,733
So I specialize in interventional pulmonology.

35
00:00:58,733 --> 00:01:01,033
So we do a lot of advanced

36
00:01:01,033 --> 00:01:02,833
procedures involving

37
00:01:02,833 --> 00:01:04,566
doing biopsies in the lung.

38
00:01:04,566 --> 00:01:05,300
So oftentimes

39
00:01:05,300 --> 00:01:07,233
we see people that have lung nodules.

40
00:01:07,233 --> 00:01:08,533
And we determine

41
00:01:08,533 --> 00:01:10,133
if we can just keep monitoring that

42
00:01:10,133 --> 00:01:12,600
or if we need to go and do a biopsy.

43
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,233
How would someone even know

44
00:01:14,233 --> 00:01:15,800
that they may have lung nodules?

45
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:16,433
How would they even know

46
00:01:16,433 --> 00:01:17,700
to get checked for something like that?

47
00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:19,533
So, the majority of lung nodules

48
00:01:19,533 --> 00:01:21,800
are actually incidentally detected.

49
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,033
Usually they go in

50
00:01:23,033 --> 00:01:24,833
and get a scan for something else...

51
00:01:24,833 --> 00:01:25,333
Interesting,

52
00:01:25,333 --> 00:01:26,366
aAd then it just happens to

53
00:01:26,366 --> 00:01:27,233
show a lung nodule.

54
00:01:27,233 --> 00:01:29,200
So it's not, it's not like bronchial,

55
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,766
like I'm having a hard time breathing.

56
00:01:30,766 --> 00:01:31,800
I hear a crackling noise.

57
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,200
It's just one of those things.

58
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,433
Yeah, it's one of those things. Wow.

59
00:01:34,433 --> 00:01:35,433
Yeah.

60
00:01:35,433 --> 00:01:35,900
Okay.

61
00:01:35,900 --> 00:01:36,166
Well,

62
00:01:36,166 --> 00:01:37,966
we have a lot of questions about vaping

63
00:01:37,966 --> 00:01:39,200
because it feels like

64
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:40,400
everybody's doing it.

65
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,166
I haven't seen someone

66
00:01:41,166 --> 00:01:42,833
with a cigarette in their hand

67
00:01:42,833 --> 00:01:44,500
in, like, two decades,

68
00:01:44,500 --> 00:01:47,533
but I see everybody with an e-cigarette

69
00:01:47,533 --> 00:01:49,533
or a vape pen everywhere.

70
00:01:49,533 --> 00:01:51,633
So the very first question

71
00:01:51,633 --> 00:01:53,900
is, what is vaping? How,

72
00:01:53,900 --> 00:01:55,133
how does it work?

73
00:01:55,133 --> 00:01:55,566
Yeah.

74
00:01:55,566 --> 00:01:57,933
So unlike conventional cigarettes

75
00:01:57,933 --> 00:02:00,533
where you're burning tobacco. Right.

76
00:02:00,533 --> 00:02:02,400
Vaping involves e-cigarettes.

77
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,900
So they're battery-operated cigarettes

78
00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:06,600
that burn a liquid,

79
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,533
and that liquid turns into a vapor,

80
00:02:08,533 --> 00:02:10,833
which is what you end up inhaling. Okay.

81
00:02:10,833 --> 00:02:11,833
So oftentimes

82
00:02:11,833 --> 00:02:13,633
because you're inhaling a vapor,

83
00:02:13,633 --> 00:02:14,933
it gives the illusion

84
00:02:14,933 --> 00:02:17,566
that it's not as... Dangerous.

85
00:02:17,566 --> 00:02:18,500
Dangerous.

86
00:02:18,500 --> 00:02:21,033
But we really don't know that yet.

87
00:02:21,033 --> 00:02:21,333
Well,

88
00:02:21,333 --> 00:02:22,633
and that's the thing, it still does

89
00:02:22,633 --> 00:02:24,533
feel new enough where everyone's just,

90
00:02:24,533 --> 00:02:25,133
you know,

91
00:02:26,333 --> 00:02:27,800
really jumping on the ignorance train.

92
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,833
Like, it seems fine.

93
00:02:28,833 --> 00:02:30,400
It smells like cotton candy.

94
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,166
Like, how bad could it be?

95
00:02:32,166 --> 00:02:33,366
But the question is,

96
00:02:33,366 --> 00:02:34,900
what are they inhaling?

97
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:35,833
Do we know?

98
00:02:35,833 --> 00:02:36,933
So we do know.

99
00:02:36,933 --> 00:02:38,000
So the,

100
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,766
the liquid inside of the e-cigarettes

101
00:02:39,766 --> 00:02:41,533
contain a number of substances.

102
00:02:41,533 --> 00:02:43,966
They usually contain

103
00:02:43,966 --> 00:02:45,000
kind of whatever the drug is

104
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:45,766
that you're trying to get.

105
00:02:45,766 --> 00:02:46,133
So either

106
00:02:46,133 --> 00:02:48,133
nicotine or THC or exactly

107
00:02:48,133 --> 00:02:50,033
whatever you're trying to to inhale.

108
00:02:50,033 --> 00:02:51,733
And nothing else, right?

109
00:02:51,733 --> 00:02:54,400
It also has some kind of a solvent

110
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,933
like a glycol or something

111
00:02:55,933 --> 00:02:57,366
like that to dissolve everything.

112
00:02:57,366 --> 00:03:00,366
But there are other carcinogenic

113
00:03:00,433 --> 00:03:01,900
materials in there,

114
00:03:01,900 --> 00:03:02,966
and it's also packaged

115
00:03:02,966 --> 00:03:04,800
very nicely in cotton,

116
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:05,200
like you said,

117
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:06,200
cotton candy flavor

118
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,000
or some kind of sugary flavor

119
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:08,966
to make them taste better.

120
00:03:08,966 --> 00:03:09,633
And that's the thing.

121
00:03:09,633 --> 00:03:10,500
I mean, the...

122
00:03:10,500 --> 00:03:11,333
because I have,

123
00:03:11,333 --> 00:03:13,433
I work with a certain coworker

124
00:03:13,433 --> 00:03:14,166
who always has

125
00:03:14,166 --> 00:03:16,566
it plugged in at, at the table,

126
00:03:16,566 --> 00:03:19,166
and they look very sleek,

127
00:03:19,166 --> 00:03:22,033
and they're colorful and they smell good.

128
00:03:22,033 --> 00:03:23,633
And we are,

129
00:03:23,633 --> 00:03:25,300
I think we're conditioned to think, like,

130
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:27,200
this is the safe alternative

131
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,933
to smoking cigarettes, right?

132
00:03:28,933 --> 00:03:32,766
So, are e-cigarettes safer than smoking

133
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:33,933
like other tobacco products,

134
00:03:33,933 --> 00:03:34,933
like cigarettes?

135
00:03:34,933 --> 00:03:35,600
Are they?

136
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,300
So in general, e-cigarettes

137
00:03:38,300 --> 00:03:41,300
have less toxins and carcinogens

138
00:03:41,333 --> 00:03:43,400
than conventional cigarettes.

139
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,933
However, it's,

140
00:03:45,933 --> 00:03:47,800
we don't know the long-term effects

141
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,200
from e-cigarettes yet,

142
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,966
which is the big concerning matter.

143
00:03:51,966 --> 00:03:54,200
And it's not even necessarily

144
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,100
the products that are within the liquid,

145
00:03:56,100 --> 00:03:58,500
but it's when you burn that liquid,

146
00:03:58,500 --> 00:04:00,500
all the byproducts that are produced.

147
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:02,533
So there's a lot of organic volatile

148
00:04:02,533 --> 00:04:04,900
compounds and a lot of other

149
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,200
toxins that are known

150
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,200
carcinogens to the lung. Okay.

151
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,566
So when we just look

152
00:04:10,566 --> 00:04:13,333
at the list on our own, we're like,

153
00:04:13,333 --> 00:04:14,433
maybe we can live with that,

154
00:04:14,433 --> 00:04:16,133
but we're turning it into something else

155
00:04:16,133 --> 00:04:17,866
when we're burning it is what you're saying. Exactly.

156
00:04:17,866 --> 00:04:18,766
Yeah. Okay.

157
00:04:18,766 --> 00:04:19,833
You're also burning

158
00:04:19,833 --> 00:04:21,366
the inside of the e-cigarette machine.

159
00:04:21,366 --> 00:04:22,033
So it's almost like

160
00:04:22,033 --> 00:04:23,366
putting plastic in a microwave,

161
00:04:23,366 --> 00:04:24,766
and you're getting all of the byproducts

162
00:04:24,766 --> 00:04:26,033
from the plastic e-cigarette

163
00:04:26,033 --> 00:04:27,500
as well as the metals on the inside.

164
00:04:27,500 --> 00:04:28,766
Out of all of the thinking

165
00:04:28,766 --> 00:04:29,700
I have done about this

166
00:04:29,700 --> 00:04:30,766
over the past few years,

167
00:04:30,766 --> 00:04:32,533
that has never occurred to me.

168
00:04:32,533 --> 00:04:36,100
So, with everything else we're inhaling,

169
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,933
we're also inhaling the

170
00:04:37,933 --> 00:04:39,366
the burnt plastic. Exactly.

171
00:04:39,366 --> 00:04:42,166
I literally never thought about that.

172
00:04:42,166 --> 00:04:42,800
Is it

173
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,633
true that each vape pen contains

174
00:04:44,633 --> 00:04:46,633
as much nicotine as a pack of cigarettes?

175
00:04:46,633 --> 00:04:47,700
Or does it just matter

176
00:04:47,700 --> 00:04:50,233
what vape you get or what? It does matter.

177
00:04:50,233 --> 00:04:51,033
Yeah, it does matter

178
00:04:51,033 --> 00:04:52,166
exactly what vape you get.

179
00:04:52,166 --> 00:04:53,800
They come in different concentrations.

180
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,900
A package of cigarettes has between

181
00:04:55,900 --> 00:04:59,833
about 40, about 20 to 40mg of

182
00:05:01,566 --> 00:05:03,900
nicotine that actually hits your body.

183
00:05:03,900 --> 00:05:05,333
And depending on the concentration,

184
00:05:05,333 --> 00:05:08,233
you can get up to 60mg in an e-vape pod.

185
00:05:08,233 --> 00:05:10,000
So it can actually even be higher

186
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,633
depending on the concentration.

187
00:05:11,633 --> 00:05:12,400
I just,

188
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,633
I can't imagine.

189
00:05:13,633 --> 00:05:14,233
I think I'm

190
00:05:14,233 --> 00:05:15,800
a very jumpy person by nature.

191
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,033
I don't even drink coffee.

192
00:05:17,033 --> 00:05:18,200
So if I hit that,

193
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:19,766
I mean, I would be in the hospital,

194
00:05:19,766 --> 00:05:20,533
like immediately.

195
00:05:20,533 --> 00:05:22,166
I don't know how one gets,

196
00:05:22,166 --> 00:05:23,400
not only gets used to that,

197
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:24,733
but like craves it.

198
00:05:24,733 --> 00:05:27,400
And I guess I'm just lucky to not know.

199
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:28,966
I think in addition to that,

200
00:05:28,966 --> 00:05:29,533
another thing

201
00:05:29,533 --> 00:05:30,366
that's very important

202
00:05:30,366 --> 00:05:32,166
is the rate that it hits your body.

203
00:05:32,166 --> 00:05:33,933
When you burn a cigarette, when you,

204
00:05:33,933 --> 00:05:35,800
when you combust the cigarette,

205
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,366
it hits your body very quickly,

206
00:05:37,366 --> 00:05:39,600
and it makes it very susceptible

207
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,366
to wanting to continue to get the high

208
00:05:41,366 --> 00:05:42,833
that you get from the nicotine.

209
00:05:42,833 --> 00:05:43,900
The first-generation

210
00:05:43,900 --> 00:05:45,933
e-cigarettes were a much slower

211
00:05:45,933 --> 00:05:47,966
absorbing process, really,

212
00:05:47,966 --> 00:05:48,966
but the newer generation,

213
00:05:48,966 --> 00:05:49,966
kind of the modern-day

214
00:05:49,966 --> 00:05:52,933
e-cigarettes, are getting that same... Quick

215
00:05:52,933 --> 00:05:54,333
absorption. Exactly.

216
00:05:54,333 --> 00:05:55,966
And so you're getting the same high

217
00:05:55,966 --> 00:05:56,733
from an e-cigarette

218
00:05:56,733 --> 00:05:58,100
that you used to only be able

219
00:05:58,100 --> 00:05:59,800
to get from a cigarette.

220
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,833
So it literally is not, it's

221
00:06:02,833 --> 00:06:03,300
not like,

222
00:06:03,300 --> 00:06:03,733
but you know,

223
00:06:03,733 --> 00:06:04,900
if you're trying to slow down,

224
00:06:04,900 --> 00:06:06,200
I guess the e-cig is the way to go.

225
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,166
Those days are over.

226
00:06:07,166 --> 00:06:08,233
They figured out,

227
00:06:08,233 --> 00:06:09,000
they tweaked it

228
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,900
so you'd get the same high. Exactly.

229
00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:12,600
Okay, I'm going to throw out a,

230
00:06:13,766 --> 00:06:15,166
a word or a

231
00:06:15,166 --> 00:06:16,166
combination of words

232
00:06:16,166 --> 00:06:18,233
that I have heard this referred to.

233
00:06:18,233 --> 00:06:19,300
If you have not,

234
00:06:19,300 --> 00:06:20,400
it just means that you don't run

235
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,800
in the same insane circles as I do.

236
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,366
Have you heard of the phrase

237
00:06:24,366 --> 00:06:26,100
popcorn lung?

238
00:06:26,100 --> 00:06:26,500
Yes.

239
00:06:26,500 --> 00:06:27,500
Okay, so my,

240
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:28,900
friends didn't make that up?

241
00:06:28,900 --> 00:06:29,400
No. Yes.

242
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:30,966
No, they did not. Is that a real thing?

243
00:06:30,966 --> 00:06:32,966
And does that happen with e-cigarettes? Yes.

244
00:06:32,966 --> 00:06:35,233
It is. It's unfortunately a real thing.

245
00:06:35,233 --> 00:06:36,600
Can you tell us what that is?

246
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:36,900
Yeah.

247
00:06:36,900 --> 00:06:39,133
So those toxins and carcinogens,

248
00:06:39,133 --> 00:06:41,700
they break down your lungs' defenses.

249
00:06:41,700 --> 00:06:43,933
And so it leads to recurrent infections.

250
00:06:43,933 --> 00:06:46,566
But it can also lead to fibrosis,

251
00:06:46,566 --> 00:06:48,300
scarring of your lungs. Okay.

252
00:06:48,300 --> 00:06:49,933
And that's irreversible.

253
00:06:49,933 --> 00:06:52,166
And, unfortunately, the treatment for that,

254
00:06:52,166 --> 00:06:54,400
it's actually very treatment resistant.

255
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,166
What would the treatment even be?

256
00:06:56,166 --> 00:06:59,633
How would you try. Typically, if it progresses to the point where,

257
00:06:59,700 --> 00:07:01,433
you know, you can't breathe anymore?

258
00:07:01,433 --> 00:07:02,200
A lot of times

259
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,300
the people need a lung transplant.

260
00:07:04,300 --> 00:07:05,200
Wow.

261
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,233
And would this also come into, like,

262
00:07:07,233 --> 00:07:08,900
where, like maybe a tracheotomy

263
00:07:08,900 --> 00:07:11,100
would happen or that's different.

264
00:07:11,100 --> 00:07:12,166
Tracheostomy can happen

265
00:07:12,166 --> 00:07:14,566
for a lot of different reasons,

266
00:07:14,566 --> 00:07:16,200
but typically it's more,

267
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,933
it's a little separate. Okay. Yeah.

268
00:07:17,933 --> 00:07:19,966
And, like you said, it is irreversible.

269
00:07:19,966 --> 00:07:23,133
If you put it down tomorrow and pray

270
00:07:23,233 --> 00:07:24,233
to all of the gods

271
00:07:24,233 --> 00:07:25,033
and run around the block

272
00:07:25,033 --> 00:07:25,633
a thousand times,

273
00:07:25,633 --> 00:07:27,933
you're not going to reverse anything. No.

274
00:07:27,933 --> 00:07:29,033
Wow. Okay.

275
00:07:29,033 --> 00:07:31,233
Because that's the thing.

276
00:07:31,233 --> 00:07:32,700
The certain friend of mine

277
00:07:32,700 --> 00:07:33,533
who has this,

278
00:07:33,533 --> 00:07:35,366
you know, attached to him at all times

279
00:07:35,366 --> 00:07:36,933
gets sick a lot.

280
00:07:36,933 --> 00:07:39,933
And, you know, the rest of us don't.

281
00:07:39,933 --> 00:07:41,700
So I'm not a doctor,

282
00:07:41,700 --> 00:07:42,900
but I'm going to go out on a limb and say

283
00:07:42,900 --> 00:07:44,233
that those things might be related.

284
00:07:44,233 --> 00:07:44,533
Yeah.

285
00:07:44,533 --> 00:07:46,166
They've found that the mechanism

286
00:07:46,166 --> 00:07:47,833
that the e-cigarettes affect

287
00:07:47,833 --> 00:07:49,966
your lung is very similar to the way

288
00:07:49,966 --> 00:07:51,933
COPD develops as well.

289
00:07:51,933 --> 00:07:54,533
Really? Oh my God, that's scary.

290
00:07:54,533 --> 00:07:56,000
So have e-cigarettes

291
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:56,900
been effective

292
00:07:56,900 --> 00:07:58,566
at helping people quit smoking

293
00:07:58,566 --> 00:07:59,333
tobacco products?

294
00:07:59,333 --> 00:08:01,333
Because everybody I know who smokes

295
00:08:01,333 --> 00:08:02,133
e-cigarettes does it

296
00:08:02,133 --> 00:08:03,766
because this was the their idea

297
00:08:03,766 --> 00:08:05,200
of a step-down program.

298
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,366
And, you know, they're just,

299
00:08:06,366 --> 00:08:07,166
they cab

300
00:08:07,166 --> 00:08:07,833
quit anytime they want.

301
00:08:07,833 --> 00:08:09,600
They just really like this step.

302
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,233
So how do we even look at that now? Yeah.

303
00:08:12,233 --> 00:08:13,400
So actually that was why

304
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,600
they were sort of introduced

305
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,566
into the public. Right.

306
00:08:16,566 --> 00:08:17,933
And there was a recent review

307
00:08:17,933 --> 00:08:19,200
with about 4000 patients

308
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,833
that actually did show that

309
00:08:20,833 --> 00:08:22,133
it does help you quit.

310
00:08:22,133 --> 00:08:24,100
So, of patients

311
00:08:24,100 --> 00:08:25,800
that go on e-cigarettes

312
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:26,366
versus,

313
00:08:26,366 --> 00:08:27,766
you know, the traditional products

314
00:08:27,766 --> 00:08:29,500
like the gum or the patch,

315
00:08:29,500 --> 00:08:30,966
a higher percentage of patients

316
00:08:30,966 --> 00:08:32,600
actually do quit smoking.

317
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,333
But the problem is at one year,

318
00:08:35,333 --> 00:08:37,166
a higher percentage of those people

319
00:08:37,166 --> 00:08:37,966
are still using

320
00:08:37,966 --> 00:08:39,966
e-cigarettes than the people

321
00:08:39,966 --> 00:08:41,766
that were using the gum or the patch.

322
00:08:41,766 --> 00:08:42,900
And so they're not

323
00:08:42,900 --> 00:08:44,566
getting the same amount of nicotine.

324
00:08:44,566 --> 00:08:46,500
And the e-cigarette people still are.

325
00:08:46,500 --> 00:08:46,600
Yeah.

326
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:47,366
So they're just kind of

327
00:08:47,366 --> 00:08:48,966
stuck on that step. Correct.

328
00:08:48,966 --> 00:08:49,933
And the other thing

329
00:08:49,933 --> 00:08:52,933
I've seen people talk about is

330
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,166
just for the habit of doing something,

331
00:08:55,166 --> 00:08:55,533
and, you know,

332
00:08:55,533 --> 00:08:56,800
the oral fixation,

333
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:57,933
the e-cigarettes

334
00:08:57,933 --> 00:08:59,733
that have nothing in them.

335
00:08:59,733 --> 00:09:01,366
But it's the habit of, you know,

336
00:09:01,366 --> 00:09:02,700
taking the big inhale

337
00:09:02,700 --> 00:09:04,066
and holding the thing in your hand.

338
00:09:04,066 --> 00:09:05,600
But now I can't stop thinking

339
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,833
about the burning plastic. Exactly.

340
00:09:07,833 --> 00:09:08,733
Yeah, exactly.

341
00:09:08,733 --> 00:09:10,333
So that's more of a concern now

342
00:09:10,333 --> 00:09:11,700
than I ever thought.

343
00:09:11,700 --> 00:09:12,200
You're still

344
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,166
ingesting and inhaling

345
00:09:14,166 --> 00:09:15,400
all of those vapors,

346
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:16,566
and so you're still getting

347
00:09:16,566 --> 00:09:18,633
that same carcinogenic

348
00:09:18,633 --> 00:09:20,200
potentially inside.

349
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,333
Well, you know what one liar said to me?

350
00:09:22,333 --> 00:09:24,766
Somebody who really didn't want to quit?

351
00:09:24,766 --> 00:09:25,333
I said, you know,

352
00:09:25,333 --> 00:09:26,700
I don't know what's in it, but,

353
00:09:26,700 --> 00:09:27,733
you know, it can't be good for you.

354
00:09:27,733 --> 00:09:28,966
And I always talk

355
00:09:28,966 --> 00:09:30,300
about how I'm constantly,

356
00:09:30,300 --> 00:09:32,100
because I talk for a living –

357
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:34,100
and not for a living, it never stops –

358
00:09:34,100 --> 00:09:34,833
so I'm always,

359
00:09:34,833 --> 00:09:36,766
like, over a vaporizer

360
00:09:36,766 --> 00:09:38,633
or, you know, over a humidifier.

361
00:09:38,633 --> 00:09:39,366
And they go,

362
00:09:39,366 --> 00:09:40,166
well you do that all the time?

363
00:09:40,166 --> 00:09:41,100
What's the difference?

364
00:09:41,100 --> 00:09:42,966
And I didn't have the answer at the time.

365
00:09:42,966 --> 00:09:43,900
I mean, mine's

366
00:09:43,900 --> 00:09:45,633
not full of nicotine and formaldehyde,

367
00:09:45,633 --> 00:09:49,100
I hope. Exactly. But otherwise, it's, it's,

368
00:09:49,333 --> 00:09:49,900
you know, people

369
00:09:49,900 --> 00:09:50,766
convince themselves like,

370
00:09:50,766 --> 00:09:52,633
well, it's just inhaling vapor.

371
00:09:52,633 --> 00:09:53,000
I think

372
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,600
air and water vapor are very different

373
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,766
than what's inside of an e-cigarette.

374
00:09:56,766 --> 00:09:57,133
Thank you.

375
00:09:57,133 --> 00:09:58,833
That's what I'm going to tell them.

376
00:09:58,833 --> 00:10:02,133
So lung cancer is the leading cause of US

377
00:10:02,133 --> 00:10:03,400
cancer-related deaths.

378
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,433
Has vaping been linked to lung cancer

379
00:10:05,433 --> 00:10:06,566
or other lung diseases?

380
00:10:06,566 --> 00:10:07,566
Or are we not there yet?

381
00:10:07,566 --> 00:10:07,733
Like,

382
00:10:07,733 --> 00:10:09,200
do we not have enough information

383
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:10,566
to talk about that?

384
00:10:10,566 --> 00:10:11,133
So lung

385
00:10:11,133 --> 00:10:12,500
cancer is one of those things

386
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:14,300
that happen after long-term

387
00:10:14,300 --> 00:10:15,533
use of cigarettes

388
00:10:15,533 --> 00:10:17,733
or long-term use of e-cigarettes... Right.

389
00:10:17,733 --> 00:10:18,733
Which w don't know yet.

390
00:10:18,733 --> 00:10:19,900
So it's a long-term effect

391
00:10:19,900 --> 00:10:20,966
we don't yet know.

392
00:10:20,966 --> 00:10:21,833
And what would you consider

393
00:10:21,833 --> 00:10:22,600
a long-term effect?

394
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,300
How many years are we talking?

395
00:10:24,300 --> 00:10:26,633
I would say if it's similar to cigarettes,

396
00:10:26,633 --> 00:10:28,400
it's usually we go by 20,

397
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:29,600
what we call 20 pack years.

398
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,300
So we don't even have that defined

399
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:32,833
at this point for e-cigarettes.

400
00:10:32,833 --> 00:10:33,800
And that's like almost a generation.

401
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,500
So we would have to wait for

402
00:10:35,500 --> 00:10:36,200
kids to grow up

403
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,533
and just see what happens.

404
00:10:37,533 --> 00:10:38,766
Yeah, exactly.

405
00:10:38,766 --> 00:10:40,766
But are we seeing...

406
00:10:40,766 --> 00:10:42,100
But you could always kind of

407
00:10:42,100 --> 00:10:42,733
I mean, you're,

408
00:10:42,733 --> 00:10:44,433
you're in the medical field

409
00:10:44,433 --> 00:10:45,433
and know way more than we do.

410
00:10:45,433 --> 00:10:46,533
I'm sure you can kind of always tell

411
00:10:46,533 --> 00:10:47,933
the way the wind is blowing.

412
00:10:47,933 --> 00:10:50,133
Would you imagine that this is

413
00:10:50,133 --> 00:10:51,400
this is going to cause

414
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,366
similar results as cigarettes or we just,

415
00:10:54,366 --> 00:10:55,333
we cannot say that,

416
00:10:55,333 --> 00:10:56,966
we just don't know? We just don't know.

417
00:10:56,966 --> 00:10:57,833
We don't know.

418
00:10:57,833 --> 00:10:58,333
We just,

419
00:10:58,333 --> 00:11:00,933
we do know it causes lung diseases.

420
00:11:00,933 --> 00:11:01,233
You know,

421
00:11:01,233 --> 00:11:02,566
like I mentioned earlier,

422
00:11:02,566 --> 00:11:04,500
it breaks down your lungs' defenses.

423
00:11:04,500 --> 00:11:05,633
So it can lead to a lot of

424
00:11:05,633 --> 00:11:06,900
recurrent infections.

425
00:11:06,900 --> 00:11:09,766
Bronchitis can lead to the popcorn lung.

426
00:11:09,766 --> 00:11:11,833
And then we all heard in 2019

427
00:11:11,833 --> 00:11:13,966
about the EVALI cases.

428
00:11:13,966 --> 00:11:16,300
Tell me. So, the acute

429
00:11:16,300 --> 00:11:18,333
e-cigarette vaping lung injury.

430
00:11:18,333 --> 00:11:19,433
Oh. Yeah.

431
00:11:19,433 --> 00:11:20,800
So, in 2019

432
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:21,966
a lot of young adults

433
00:11:21,966 --> 00:11:23,300
were being hospitalized

434
00:11:23,300 --> 00:11:24,700
because of that lung disease.

435
00:11:24,700 --> 00:11:27,700
And it was linked to a certain product

436
00:11:27,700 --> 00:11:29,700
that was in the e-cigarettes.

437
00:11:29,700 --> 00:11:31,633
But there were still people at that time

438
00:11:31,633 --> 00:11:33,166
that, who used e-cigarettes,

439
00:11:33,166 --> 00:11:36,333
that didn't have that specific vitamin E

440
00:11:36,366 --> 00:11:37,133
acetate,

441
00:11:37,133 --> 00:11:39,766
who still developed this lung injury.

442
00:11:39,766 --> 00:11:41,233
While you were saying that,

443
00:11:41,233 --> 00:11:42,700
you know, bronchitis

444
00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:44,166
kind of caught my attention

445
00:11:44,166 --> 00:11:45,133
because I think, like,

446
00:11:45,133 --> 00:11:45,833
you know, when you tell

447
00:11:45,833 --> 00:11:46,833
kids stuff, they're like,

448
00:11:46,833 --> 00:11:49,000
okay, old lady, like, whatever,

449
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:49,933
this doesn't affect me.

450
00:11:49,933 --> 00:11:50,700
I'm immortal.

451
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:52,833
I'm 14, and I'm trying to think like,

452
00:11:52,833 --> 00:11:53,833
what would I say?

453
00:11:53,833 --> 00:11:55,366
Because I have a young son

454
00:11:55,366 --> 00:11:56,733
who's almost at that age and,

455
00:11:56,733 --> 00:11:58,200
you know, his friends and all this stuff.

456
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,800
What would I say to a kid

457
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,300
to get them to actually

458
00:12:01,300 --> 00:12:02,133
stop and, like,

459
00:12:02,133 --> 00:12:03,200
think about something like this

460
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,133
because they all think, like, whatever.

461
00:12:05,133 --> 00:12:06,133
It tastes like cherry.

462
00:12:06,133 --> 00:12:07,766
Thanks anyway for your advice.

463
00:12:07,766 --> 00:12:09,366
But when you said, like,

464
00:12:09,366 --> 00:12:10,533
bronchial, like kids

465
00:12:10,533 --> 00:12:11,700
get sick all the time,

466
00:12:11,700 --> 00:12:12,933
I think it would just probably have to

467
00:12:12,933 --> 00:12:14,933
show them a picture of a popcorn lung.

468
00:12:14,933 --> 00:12:15,400
But you know,

469
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:15,800
when you

470
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,433
when you give data and you give stats,

471
00:12:17,433 --> 00:12:18,366
you know, I'm,

472
00:12:18,366 --> 00:12:19,100
I'm taking them

473
00:12:19,100 --> 00:12:20,233
in, but I'm just trying to think,

474
00:12:20,233 --> 00:12:22,900
how would you tell a young patient

475
00:12:22,900 --> 00:12:26,133
if you, if, you know, maybe a daughter

476
00:12:26,133 --> 00:12:26,933
or a nephew

477
00:12:26,933 --> 00:12:29,166
or somebody was hanging out in your car

478
00:12:29,166 --> 00:12:30,633
and yanked one

479
00:12:30,633 --> 00:12:31,366
yanked out their e-cig,

480
00:12:31,366 --> 00:12:33,433
he said, what would you say?

481
00:12:33,433 --> 00:12:36,933
Yeah, I think the biggest thing is just

482
00:12:37,833 --> 00:12:38,900
informing them.

483
00:12:38,900 --> 00:12:40,366
you know, knowledge is power.

484
00:12:40,366 --> 00:12:41,633
So letting them know

485
00:12:41,633 --> 00:12:42,833
the potential side effects,

486
00:12:42,833 --> 00:12:44,166
because they're young,

487
00:12:44,166 --> 00:12:45,733
they have so many more years

488
00:12:45,733 --> 00:12:46,566
of life left.

489
00:12:46,566 --> 00:12:48,566
And without us knowing what those long-

490
00:12:48,566 --> 00:12:51,566
term effects are, it's very scary, right?

491
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,766
It's, it's an unknown at this time.

492
00:12:53,766 --> 00:12:55,100
It's, it's so scary.

493
00:12:55,100 --> 00:12:55,900
It's,

494
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:56,133
you know,

495
00:12:56,133 --> 00:12:56,433
it's like

496
00:12:56,433 --> 00:12:57,800
when you look at something from the past

497
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:58,833
and you can see the beginning,

498
00:12:58,833 --> 00:13:00,200
middle and end of that disease

499
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,100
and put it back on the shelf.

500
00:13:02,100 --> 00:13:03,633
This is scary because, like you said,

501
00:13:03,633 --> 00:13:04,700
we're in the dark

502
00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:07,166
and we won't have that information

503
00:13:07,166 --> 00:13:08,200
until, unfortunately,

504
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,566
a lot of, a lot more people

505
00:13:09,566 --> 00:13:12,166
use it and get sick. Correct. It's scary.

506
00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:15,333
Now, e-cigs are the most commonly used

507
00:13:15,333 --> 00:13:16,833
tobacco product by high school,

508
00:13:16,833 --> 00:13:17,366
middle schoolers

509
00:13:17,366 --> 00:13:18,033
like we're talking about,

510
00:13:18,033 --> 00:13:19,800
especially the flavored ones.

511
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,766
So does vaping

512
00:13:21,766 --> 00:13:22,766
increase the risk

513
00:13:22,766 --> 00:13:23,766
of developing that stuff?

514
00:13:23,766 --> 00:13:25,200
Why are kids at greater

515
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,933
risk for the e-cigs than the adults?

516
00:13:27,933 --> 00:13:28,200
Is it

517
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,566
just because they have a longer,

518
00:13:30,566 --> 00:13:32,100
they have extra years to use it?

519
00:13:32,100 --> 00:13:33,633
What are we talking about?

520
00:13:33,633 --> 00:13:35,333
I think it's kind of twofold.

521
00:13:35,333 --> 00:13:36,366
I think, one,

522
00:13:36,366 --> 00:13:38,533
nicotine is very, very highly addictive.

523
00:13:38,533 --> 00:13:40,366
It's one of the most addictive substances

524
00:13:40,366 --> 00:13:41,966
that there is.

525
00:13:41,966 --> 00:13:42,900
Then, like I said before,

526
00:13:42,900 --> 00:13:43,600
we're packaging it

527
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,966
in a bright, shiny, flavorful...

528
00:13:47,366 --> 00:13:47,833
Unicorn sparkles.

529
00:13:47,833 --> 00:13:49,033
Unicorn sparkly,

530
00:13:49,033 --> 00:13:51,966
delicious sugary product.

531
00:13:51,966 --> 00:13:53,166
And we are marketing it

532
00:13:53,166 --> 00:13:54,033
to kids

533
00:13:54,033 --> 00:13:56,200
whose brains aren't fully developed.

534
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,100
And so they see this,

535
00:13:58,100 --> 00:13:59,733
and they don't make decisions

536
00:13:59,733 --> 00:14:01,300
the same way that adults do.

537
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:02,766
And so they get hooked

538
00:14:02,766 --> 00:14:04,700
earlier and earlier and they're kids

539
00:14:04,700 --> 00:14:06,033
that maybe would have never picked up

540
00:14:06,033 --> 00:14:07,433
a cigarette in the first place.

541
00:14:07,433 --> 00:14:08,733
And so

542
00:14:08,733 --> 00:14:10,033
I think both the time

543
00:14:10,033 --> 00:14:13,033
and sort of the phase of their life.

544
00:14:13,033 --> 00:14:14,766
That makes sense. Yeah.

545
00:14:14,766 --> 00:14:16,100
It's estimated that about 1.6

546
00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:17,600
million middle and high school

547
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,333
students are using vape pens.

548
00:14:19,333 --> 00:14:21,000
Are you serious?

549
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,966
Oh, my God, that's crazy.

550
00:14:22,966 --> 00:14:26,133
Yes, I was watching some random guy

551
00:14:26,133 --> 00:14:26,800
on Instagram

552
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,733
because who else is on Instagram

553
00:14:28,733 --> 00:14:29,766
but random guys?

554
00:14:29,766 --> 00:14:31,433
And I'm so glad I came across this

555
00:14:31,433 --> 00:14:33,033
because he was giving advice

556
00:14:33,033 --> 00:14:33,733
to younger people

557
00:14:33,733 --> 00:14:35,033
about how to say no to stuff.

558
00:14:35,033 --> 00:14:37,700
And I'm a grown woman,

559
00:14:37,700 --> 00:14:38,366
and I was like,

560
00:14:38,366 --> 00:14:39,633
I'm taking this advice

561
00:14:39,633 --> 00:14:40,600
because I'm terrible at that.

562
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:41,800
You don't wanna hurt anyone's feelings.

563
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:42,633
You don't want to seem like

564
00:14:42,633 --> 00:14:43,900
you're not engaged with them.

565
00:14:43,900 --> 00:14:45,633
And this is perfect

566
00:14:45,633 --> 00:14:46,366
for something like this,

567
00:14:46,366 --> 00:14:47,033
because he said,

568
00:14:47,033 --> 00:14:48,400
when someone offers you something,

569
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,000
don't waffle back and forth.

570
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,833
Just go, no, I'm good.

571
00:14:51,833 --> 00:14:53,100
Keep eye contact.

572
00:14:53,100 --> 00:14:55,400
And that, and that is a whole sentence.

573
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:56,200
That's great advice.

574
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,000
And I was so,

575
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,233
yeah, I was just like, that was easy.

576
00:14:58,233 --> 00:14:59,166
You don't have to break out

577
00:14:59,166 --> 00:15:00,500
your PowerPoint presentation

578
00:15:00,500 --> 00:15:02,433
and lecture your friends and... or,

579
00:15:02,433 --> 00:15:02,633
you know,

580
00:15:02,633 --> 00:15:03,000
just hope

581
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,400
that they're going to stop asking.

582
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:05,300
So I'm going to tell

583
00:15:05,300 --> 00:15:06,833
my son, just say no, I'm good.

584
00:15:06,833 --> 00:15:08,166
And then hopefully

585
00:15:08,166 --> 00:15:09,933
they'll leave him alone. Perfect.

586
00:15:09,933 --> 00:15:10,966
Because that's the thing.

587
00:15:10,966 --> 00:15:12,000
He's such a good kid

588
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,100
and he's such a rule follower.

589
00:15:13,100 --> 00:15:13,433
But like,

590
00:15:13,433 --> 00:15:14,166
what kid doesn't

591
00:15:14,166 --> 00:15:15,966
want to look cool to their friends?

592
00:15:15,966 --> 00:15:17,600
And I, we're so close to that

593
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,433
age, it terrifies me.

594
00:15:19,433 --> 00:15:22,400
So I think I know the answer to this,

595
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,300
but I'm just going to ask it anyway.

596
00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:26,366
Do you think there's a need to

597
00:15:26,366 --> 00:15:27,933
further regulate e-cigarettes?

598
00:15:27,933 --> 00:15:29,333
Or you think we're just doing a bang-

599
00:15:29,333 --> 00:15:30,366
up job right now?

600
00:15:32,733 --> 00:15:34,600
Yeah, I think,

601
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:34,933
you know,

602
00:15:34,933 --> 00:15:35,566
in general,

603
00:15:35,566 --> 00:15:37,733
there's about 7000 different

604
00:15:37,733 --> 00:15:39,100
e-cigarette products on the market

605
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:41,033
and only about 45 of them

606
00:15:41,033 --> 00:15:43,166
are regulated by the FDA.

607
00:15:43,166 --> 00:15:46,000
45 of them? 45 of the 7000. Got it. Wow.

608
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:46,966
So, you know,

609
00:15:46,966 --> 00:15:48,500
I think we're doing a pretty poor job

610
00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:50,033
of regulating them.

611
00:15:50,033 --> 00:15:51,133
I think, in general, we're

612
00:15:51,133 --> 00:15:53,566
also making it look cool to kids.

613
00:15:53,566 --> 00:15:54,766
And I think we're not doing

614
00:15:54,766 --> 00:15:56,933
a very good job of helping

615
00:15:56,933 --> 00:15:57,933
cigarette smokers

616
00:15:57,933 --> 00:16:00,100
transition off of the vape pen

617
00:16:00,100 --> 00:16:01,733
as they're trying to quit cigarettes.

618
00:16:01,733 --> 00:16:02,733
So, I think there's

619
00:16:02,733 --> 00:16:04,933
kind of a threefold approach

620
00:16:04,933 --> 00:16:06,200
that we need to really help

621
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:07,133
regulate these better.

622
00:16:07,133 --> 00:16:09,500
And if you could just wave your magic

623
00:16:09,500 --> 00:16:10,033
wand and say,

624
00:16:10,033 --> 00:16:11,633
you know what, I'm in charge

625
00:16:11,633 --> 00:16:13,366
of tightening up these regulations.

626
00:16:13,366 --> 00:16:14,600
Just what kind of things

627
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:15,766
would you throw out there?

628
00:16:15,766 --> 00:16:16,900
And this is for both of you,

629
00:16:16,900 --> 00:16:17,433
because I'm

630
00:16:17,433 --> 00:16:19,700
sure it'll give us all really good ideas.

631
00:16:19,700 --> 00:16:21,300
Stop making them unicorn sparklers.

632
00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:23,166
Exactly. Start there. Yeah.

633
00:16:23,166 --> 00:16:25,333
Removing the flavorings. Yes.

634
00:16:25,333 --> 00:16:27,333
I think higher fines or

635
00:16:27,333 --> 00:16:28,366
punishments for places

636
00:16:28,366 --> 00:16:29,366
that are selling

637
00:16:29,366 --> 00:16:32,533
unregulated vape pens and pods as well.

638
00:16:32,533 --> 00:16:34,133
And you know, on,

639
00:16:34,133 --> 00:16:36,200
I think cigarettes are doing this now...

640
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:36,833
I always

641
00:16:36,833 --> 00:16:37,966
when I think of cigarette machines

642
00:16:37,966 --> 00:16:39,033
I think of, like, bowling alleys

643
00:16:39,033 --> 00:16:40,900
with, like, the thing you pull and it drops? Yes.

644
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:41,533
So I know they didn't

645
00:16:41,533 --> 00:16:41,966
have them back

646
00:16:41,966 --> 00:16:42,600
then, but

647
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,233
like really, really obnoxious,

648
00:16:45,233 --> 00:16:46,433
super inconvenient,

649
00:16:46,433 --> 00:16:48,733
unsexy warnings on the box

650
00:16:48,733 --> 00:16:49,833
I think is also helpful.

651
00:16:49,833 --> 00:16:51,900
Pictures of lung cancer? Yes.

652
00:16:51,900 --> 00:16:53,900
Yeah. Truly. Yes.

653
00:16:53,900 --> 00:16:55,233
So we,

654
00:16:55,233 --> 00:16:56,900
we have a long way to go in regulating,

655
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:57,933
but we also have a long way to go

656
00:16:57,933 --> 00:16:59,233
and figuring out what the heck

657
00:16:59,233 --> 00:17:01,100
this is even doing to us. Absolutely.

658
00:17:01,100 --> 00:17:01,800
So again,

659
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,100
I don't want to put words in your mouth,

660
00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:03,800
but I'm going to go ahead

661
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,300
and assume as professionals,

662
00:17:05,300 --> 00:17:05,766
you would both

663
00:17:05,766 --> 00:17:06,633
just tell us to

664
00:17:06,633 --> 00:17:07,933
err on the side of caution

665
00:17:07,933 --> 00:17:09,533
and take these out of our mouths.

666
00:17:09,533 --> 00:17:10,966
Just say no. Yep.

667
00:17:10,966 --> 00:17:12,833
Just say no. Exactly.

668
00:17:12,833 --> 00:17:14,933
Thank you so much for educating us

669
00:17:14,933 --> 00:17:16,533
and for reminding us

670
00:17:16,533 --> 00:17:18,200
that, you know, things that a lot of us

671
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,300
probably already know,

672
00:17:19,300 --> 00:17:20,033
but we're just kind of

673
00:17:20,033 --> 00:17:20,600
looking the other way

674
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,033
because we like doing what we like

675
00:17:22,033 --> 00:17:23,300
doing, right?

676
00:17:23,300 --> 00:17:24,733
Absolutely. Oh, we appreciate your time.

677
00:17:24,733 --> 00:17:25,366
Thank you both.

678
00:17:25,366 --> 00:17:27,400
Thank you very much. Absolutely.
