Speaker 1 (00:01):
Is the City And with Kate Winki podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Were talking about AI a lot on the show Fast.
But the question is and I love this article.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
It talks about well with everything in the speed of
AI and the ability, and it's true when you think
about a world that everybody has the smartest man in
their pocket on the planet. So I have access twenty
four to seven to the smartest man in the world
and he's sitting on my iPhone. I can't look at
him in the mirror, but I've got him in my pocket.
So this article talks about where we're going to be
(00:30):
in twenty thirty.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
It's a bit scary to even think about it only
five years away. It's five and a half years away.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
So what are they saying, Okay, everybody will have superhuman strength.
Oh come on, because they're saying you will be able
to what do they call it? Robotic exoskeletons. So really
it's robotic parts built into your arms and legs and
your back whatever you might need to be able to
run as fast as you want to run. I mean
(00:58):
I could jog from here to well I with my exoskeleton.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
I've had three knee reconstructions on my right knee. Can
I get a new leg?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:05):
No, but you can have an exoskeleton what in five
years you can and then you will be able to
walk forever without any pain because you'll have I don't know,
bits of aluminium and stuff holding your leg to You've still.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Got to get but there's going to be a doctor
that can put it into my legs.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I doesn't need to you slip it on like a
pair of pants. Yes, it's a robotic exoskeleton suit, so
graphite pieces.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
You would be able to just turn your legs on
when you want it.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I just I don't think you can buy a pair
of fast pants mate, I mean for one hundred dollars.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
The day will come when you're lying in bed and
are built in alarm clock that you've set the night
before goes off in your head and vibrates your body
and then automatically makes you sit up in bed and
walk to the shower.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
You're not even awake yet.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Then the water will come on automatically at a preset
timer to the temperature you want, and then you will
get in a driverless car and find yourself at work
and then wake up.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
This is what I'm in the nude This is getting scary.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
They also said superhealing and immortality.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
There'll be nanobots in our blood screen stream that can
fly around. If there's any issues like mutating cells, the
nano pop bots will be able to recognize that and
then fix the issue.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
I mean, we can't. We're struggling to get over to
green power, and you're telling me that we're going to
be flying around in nanosuits.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Keep burning the coal. You're going to be fine. Guys.
Devices that give humans enhanced sensors could be on the market.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
So it's the networking telecommunications company suggesting digital wristbands could give.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
You the ability to then feel digital optics. So if
you're if you.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Send me a I don't know PowerPoint PowerPoint dock with
images on it fits, I'll be able to feel those documents.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
I'm still trying to work out a schedule with my
holiday to Broken Heel. How am I going to get
one of these pair of fast pains?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
No fast, but you won't need your car, mate, you
won't need your holiday. You can just tell the AI
to run you.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
To Broken Hill. Guys. I'm off the broken hill. How
are you getting there? I'm running with my excess skeleton legs.
Speaker 6 (03:11):
Okay, this is the Fitzian Whipper with Cape Ritchie podcast.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Okay, we need to speak to this man because we're
heading into winter. We've started winter now and we've got
the flu season. And I tell you what, there's a
fair bit going around the moment. When I hear that
there's new diseases, my eyes immediately divert to Tom Ivy.
But no, we're not going to speak to you today,
thank you. We're going to speak to a qualified doctor.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
It's doctor Andrew run By.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Right.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
Hello, goodness me.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I get nervous when you come in.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Let's talk about roch many great topics in thirteen twenty
four ten. If you would like to ask the good
doctor a question. My son Jack, he is eight years old.
He has got pneumonia. That's a fun one to have.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Yeah, picked that off the bucket.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Least is that there's viral and then what's the other one?
Speaker 5 (03:58):
Back to here, bacterial?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
So I think something started viral and ended up bacterial.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
It can it can work like that.
Speaker 6 (04:04):
So, yes, pneumonia is not necessarily specifically caused by one thing.
Monia is an infection in the lungs. But yeah, pneumonia's
it's a serious because it's.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
The old person's friend, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
A lot of older people do get pneumonia, particularly if
they find themselves in hospital, but you know, it's that
it's that time of year. One of the big ones
that's that we're trying to get people to know about
is respiratory sinsiti or virus RSV. This is the new
one Rocks, but they're not new. It's been around for
a very long time.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Had a couple of years ago.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
It falls under that.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Category of respiratory viruses. So there's the ones that we
know about, you know, the usual suspects, influenza, COVID, and
then there is all these other respiratory viruses. RSV is
kind of at the top of those. Most kids by
the time they get to the age of two have
had RSV, right, But the big issue is the older generation,
so over sixty, we know that if you get RSV,
you're at an increased risk of hospitalization and it can
(04:58):
be very bad. So we need to be getting people
to understand that. You know, for most of us, might
put us in bed, might make us a bit unwell.
But again there's those vulnerable ends of the community, the
young ones and the older ones that we.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Need to care about. Is there a vaccine for it?
Speaker 6 (05:12):
Roch, No, there is, There is a vaccine. There's a
lot of different options for people, particularly those that are
a little bit older might have a chronic condition. And
you guys have all heard this, weell, I mean we
spent a couple of years talking about it.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
But the same thing.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
If you've got a heart condition or a lung condition,
you are at higher risks. So you should be talking
to your doctor, talking to your pharmacist about the options
that you have.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
You know, to avoid rs feed.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Is it very contagious?
Speaker 5 (05:36):
It is.
Speaker 6 (05:38):
You can pick it up from the surface, you can,
you know, if you touch your face it's easily spread.
Particularly I mean, we love our little children, our little humans.
They're wonderful, but my goodness, don't they know how to
grow some.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Journeys, the malsters of the grub.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
Vaccines, I know how important they are.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
But okay, so.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
Our family, the boys have got school vaccines that they
are going to begin, the flu shot and stuff. But
do we have to get a flu shot? Do we
have to get a COVID shot? Do we have to
get an RSV shot? Is there certain ones that we
should be targeting every winter.
Speaker 5 (06:09):
Yes, I mean breaking them out.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
So with the RSV, you know, I think particularly for
the vulnerable groups that should be talking to their doctor
and they're pharmacists about the choice there. With regards to
influenza and COVID. We know the flu vaccine is something
that people need to be thinking about. But the other
thing around all vaccines, I like to look at it
from the point of view, Yes, you're protecting yourself, but.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
The other thing is we're protecting the rest.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
Of the community. Now, for most of us, it's not deadly.
For some parts of the community, these viruses can be.
So I think you need to be thinking about not
only yourself, but thinking about those that you're around, whether
there's older you know, grandparents and other people that you're
spending time with when you're making those choices.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
We've got a text message here from Malcolm in Rose
Bay and Malcolm would like to know can you overdose
on monjarro?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Doctor?
Speaker 6 (06:55):
You can, absolutely, you need to take it very seriously.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Who's coming from Malcolm from Rose Bay? Malcolm from rose
It's amazing how much time I spend speaking to Malcolm
from Rose Bay just.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
To extend on Malcolm's questions.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
I think it said that Malcolm was on sort of
five milligrams. I believe last time he up that to
seven point five. He had chronic diary for about a week.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
It's amazing. And Malcolm actually he reached out to me
at that time and he said him, I is this normal?
And I said, you just got to ease up, Malcolm.
I feel like you just you've pushed it. You want
to you just pushed a little bit too much.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
Maybe look for it in between. Maybe mecame in the
middle jokes aside.
Speaker 6 (07:40):
I mean, you do need it has become so mainstreams
and you just you need to be talking to you
your practitioner.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
For those that are out there on o ZAMPI, right,
you do hear a lot about this. Every week there's
another story about people having the side effect of blindness,
or they can't taste anymore, all this sort of stuff.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Does this happen?
Speaker 5 (07:59):
Every thing has a risk associated with it. I think
that unfortunately we.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Get this this momentum that comes with these miracle troubles.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Solving so many things. And yes, it is.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Really helpful, particularly for people at the top end of
the spectrum that really you know, their weight is could
be life threatening.
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Like Malcolm, we've.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Got Maria on the line from Merrickville. What's your question
for the doctor this morning?
Speaker 5 (08:23):
He's all yours Maria, Hello, Hello Dost.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
So I've just read online that high intensity workoups can
be bad for women's hormones. I just want to know
if it's true because I've been thinking of doing some
exercise as well. I don't know which ones to choose.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
A really good question.
Speaker 6 (08:37):
Look, the first thing that I start with is, no
matter what all exercise, all choices can impact things. I'll
be honest, I haven't heard about high intensity exercise impacting
female hormones, right, But look, there are certain types of
exercise that impact people in different ways. But you know,
I think it's about deciding what are you trying to achieve,
what do you actually enjoy, and then do it day
(09:00):
in and day out, Because I think with a high impact,
intense exercise, for a lot of people, they're trying to
get as much done in a really short period of time.
But you can get the same outcome if you're doing
less over a longer period of time, consistently day in
and day out. So Maria, I think it comes down
to what are you trying to do if it is
something that you're concerned about, so many other options.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
Georgia in Bundi, Hi Georgia. Hi guys.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
So I've started dating someone new, right, but every single
time I'm around them, I'm like coughing and sneezing, Like
I just get so stuffy, And so I'm like, can
you actually be allergic to another person? Great question?
Speaker 6 (09:42):
So I mean allergies are I mean, you can be
allergic to pretty much anything. And in this circumstance, whether
you're actually allergic to the human or you're allergic to
the things that the human might be using. So it
might be it might be after shave or perfume, it might.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
Be a detergent that they're using to wash their clothes,
it might be a pet, or it might.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Something that they're around you, soap for Tommy, Yeah, exactly. Again,
can be allergic to anything, and so it might be
it might not.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Necessarily be the person. But I think I'm allergic. I
think I'm allergic to whip.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
I really do, and I don't have any I take
fentanyl just to get through it.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
Sometimes absolutely unfair physical and then there's psychological ages to
different topics, and I feel like.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Can we see Rachelle hands in the room here as well?
The two producers are in Miranda.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Hello, Ryan, morning boys, save me here? Ry, what's your
question for doctor Andrew Rochford.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
So every time I feel a cold or like flu
coming on, so I also be doing a COVID test
as well.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
I think for a very long time there we got
so sick of talking about COVID, but COVID still exists.
COVID is still something that is dangerous to members of
our community, and I think doing a COVID test doesn't
necessarily change what you're going to do. Gives you a
diagnosis if you're positive, but it also means that you're
not exposing yourself again to people that are at high risk.
You shouldn't be that whole Going to work when you've
(11:14):
got a running nose or you're feeling sick isn't something
we should be endorsing. You should be wearing a mask,
protecting others around you. But yeah, absolutely, you know, there's
nothing wrong with knowing whether it's COVID or not. But again,
you know, I think in those circumstances, it's about making
sure you're protecting others as much as you're protecting yourself.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
What's an armor force? Roch armor force is really good.
You know that's your car.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
I think that's pretty much to toolish your car.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
No, no, No, armor force is like it's understanding is
like it's a really strong multi vitamin. So if I'm
starting to feel run down, I take a couple of
armor force.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
That does.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
If you're feeling run down, you can't take anything to
get over.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
You're already run down, aren't you? Armforce dock, You've done well. Firstly,
I do think it's an automobile cleaning product. So if
you are taking the right name, it is.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Talking about armor ale.
Speaker 5 (12:04):
Yeah, don't drink that if you're feeling under.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
The weather under the bonnet. Armor force it's like a
strong multi vitamin.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
I think, first and foremost going to make sure you're
getting a good diet, So lots of different colored fruits, vegetable,
whole foods. That's where you're going to get the majority
of all them vitamins and minerals that you need. If
you do need to supplement. Whichever is your brand of
choice when it comes to multi vitamin can assist with
doing that. But you know, I think there's just a
lot of things at this time of year we need
(12:34):
to be prioritizing. One of those is making sure we're
eating lots of great whole foods, to getting outside because
I think it gets cold. There's always a new excuse
why you don't want to be moving around and be active.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
And then the last thing is sleep. Sleep is completely underrated.
I put it at the top of the list.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
If you're going to prioritize thing to stay healthy and
not feel run down, make sure you're getting a good night.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
I love hearing that. I'd love to sleep next to you.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
He is an author, he's a media personality, and he
is a doctor. He's the first ever student to get
his degree through TAFE.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
But we love him doctor and.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Nothing wrong with the tape system. Thank you guys, Got
on your roche.
