You are about to listen to the Doctor Dahlia Show,
sase stimulating medical talk radio. Any medical advice doctor Dhalia
Wax gives on her show should not be substituted for

doctor Dahlia.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
All right.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
And you're back on the Doctor Doli Show.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Thank you all for guining in.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
One eight seven seven Doctor Dolly one eight seven seven
D O C D A L. I. So before we
begin this next hour, I wanted to kind of bring
up something that that I think is really relative to life.
And I know some of you guys are gonna get mad,
you know that I'm bringing this up, But you know
I'm a Dallas copy fan.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Ya have at them Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
And I've always loved the Cowboys, but they're in a
thirty year kind of slump. I don't think they've won
a Super Bowl in nearly thirty years. Over thirty years now, no,
thirty years. Yeah, And I watched America's Dream. It was
a Netflix show. Let me see what was it called.
It was America's Dream. Yeah, the Gambler Boys, And so
(01:23):
it talked about the Cowboys legacy and Jerry Jones and
some of his decisions, and I'm glad actually shut my
volume off there. I'm glad I watched it because I've
been very frustrated with Jerry Jones.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I think a lot of people are.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
But there's a lot of life lessons that we pick
up seeing these docuseries on people's rise and fall. Now
I knew what was going on with the Cowboys kind
of superficially during the nineties. The nineties was one of
their huge legacy years. I mean, you got the Roger
Staubuch era, but then you have the nineties, the Troy
(01:58):
Aikman and Emmitt Smith and Marv Irwin and or No Yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Deon Sanders and the guys.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I don't want to forget anybody, Emma Smith, they were
just all But anyway, you had the dream Team. I
was at school, I was in undergrad, and then I
was in college, and so I always worked Sunday, so
I never really had time to watch.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
I only got bits and pieces, and I knew, you.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Know, Troy Aikman was pretty pretty good. I knew Eva
Smith was awesome. But this show reminded me of a
lot because you know, when I talk about the Cowboys
with my friends, now I go, I remember some of
the stuff in the nineties, but it's a blur, and
this kind of re reinvigorated and and kind of reminded
you like the herschel Walker trade.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
We basically what happened.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
In essence, and Jerry Jones decides to buy h He
Actually he was a risk taker himself.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I don't think he was born rich. I think his dad.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Owned a shop and they lived on the top floor
of that little store or on the second floor.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
And so he was a razor back.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
I believe he played I forget which position in college football.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
So he played college football with Jimmy Johnson, who was
one of his.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Best buddies, and then they ended up he ended up
making some real estate investments to get borrowing money and
borrowing money, and apparently he said he was in so
much debt that his wife was worried and calls you
her father.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
So now the father in law is getting involved, like
what's going on here?
Speaker 4 (03:23):
But then I guess he invests in oil rigs, and
according to the story, one hits and he makes one
hundred million dollars and he says, I'm buying a I'm
gonna buy.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
A football team.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
He had originally wanted to buy the Chargers, I think
when he was only twenty eight years old, and he
went to the Teamsters for loans and he met Jimmy
Haffa and his father was like, you're not going to be,
you know, working with Jimmy Hafa and the mob.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
That's not a good idea.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
And so he ended up not buying the Chargers and
I got sold to the client group. That's neither here
nor there. But what's interesting is the fact that you
would be in debt and you would keep borrowing. See,
I'm not a risk taker. I don't double down and
double down and I don't do that because I usually lose. Well,
he won, I mean he hit his rigs, struck oil,
and he he made.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
A lot of money. But it was interesting where he.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Had that gumption, that that gut, those guts, that grit
to keep going. So then he ends up buying the
Dallas Cowboy football team and he buys the team that
was at their loss. Sometimes you want to buy at
the low price, just like with stocks. You want to
buy a low but you want to make sure it's
not gonna.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Be a failure.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
And so one of the best players they had was
herschel Walker. They decided to trade hershel Walker. They're the
best player they had. I think they traded him to
the Vikings. That allowed them to get five players and
multiple draft picks, and that's how they get Emmitt Smith,
and that's how they start getting some of their other players,
and they basically shake it all up. They end up
(04:50):
drafting Troy Aikman, they draft their team, and then they
end up getting you know, especially under Jimmy Johnson, then
to so bot Witz.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Then Jerry decides to fire Jimmy Johnson.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
There's the fights, and there's the you know, who gets
credit for what, and then they go through a whole
bunch of coaches. And now we're at the point where
the Cowboys are very very micromanaged by their owner because
even though the owner might have made a good move
with that you know, herschel Walker trade, now he is
still I you know, many people feel he's in the way.
(05:23):
And I'm not here to talk football, but this idea
of going two steps forward because you took one step
back is very common in life, whether it's health or not,
Like you need to cut to heel. I mean, if
I'm having a bad appendix now you got to take
it out, and sometimes that means cutting you open. And
in medicine we always cut to heel or we treat.
(05:45):
You know, we understand that sometimes the treatment, you know,
might you know, might necessarily you know, I don't want
to say hurt, but cause a regression in in shall
we say the body's process, because we know it's going
to heal. So for example, let's say you have a
really bad wound and you never got stitches, and so
(06:06):
the wound now didn't heal right, and you have some
poorly healing tissue. We might breed and clean out that
poorly healed tissue just so then the new tissue could grow.
It's this, you know, two steps forward, one step back
sort of idea.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
And that's what I gleaned from this.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
You know, America's Team Netflix series they sometimes you might
want to hold on and hold on to something to
go well, I think it's valuable. I think it's valuable,
and sometimes you might just need to. You know, let's
say you're living in a house that you don't need.
It's thirty five hundred square feet and you don't need that,
(06:43):
and you might be able to get ahead if you
sell it. Go to something smaller, and we forget to
do that because we think we always have to move forward,
we always have to gain, we have to get bigger
and bigger and bigger, and not necessarily now the idea
of micromanaging, that's another big lesson.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
Now.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
I understand Jerry Jones has some football experience he played,
but that's not what he does. You know, as a doctor,
I'm a family doctor, so I know a lot about everything.
I know a lot about ob I know a lot
about Jerry Atric I know a lot about pediatrics.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
But if I need.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
A specialist, I got to take a step back and
let that person do their job. And that's also hard
to do. You know, when you look at your family dynamic,
you'll have some people in the family where they have
talents and they have some gifts.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
And I'm starting to.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Learn that even with my family, even though I'm mommy, okay,
you know, mommy's you.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Know, been in charge, you know, with the kids and
things like that.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
You know, sometimes you don't give the.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Kids their their job.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
There's you know, their their roles, their responsibilities, and then
that allows you to rest gear up and and fix
what they mess up. One eight seven seven, Doctor Olly,
don't go ah.

smell pot. I mean, it's just it's being used ubiquitously.
(10:44):
I wish it'd smelled better, but yeah, everywhere I go
it just stinks.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
I mean, you smell it.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
That's what I think I've actually liked about Colorado is,
even though Colorado was one of the first states to
legalize marijuana, you're outside, you're hiking, you're you're mountain climbing,
you're not in and so you get some fresh air.
But when you're in the city, uh, and whether it's Vegas,
New York, LA, it just you just smell it. You
(11:11):
go to a hotel room or a motel room and
and it just reeks of it. And it's it's frustrating
that that this is where we are today, where you know,
legalizing marijuana, which is something I supported so people had
access to something for pain, because we knew that pain
medications were going to start getting limited because they were
(11:32):
blaming the fentandel crisis on doctors and not the cartels
and drug use and the farious groups that are you know,
make drug dealers. But I wanted that. I wanted available
for those who needed it. I also wanted us to
study it so we could see where the medicineal health
applications are and hard to study something that's class Schedule
(11:55):
one and and illegal in many states. And then I
also want the police freedom so then don't have to
be sitting there pulling people over, you know, for small
amounts of marijuana. They could deal with the more aggressive
and more violent crimes. So yeah, I voted to legalize it.
What I didn't think was gonna happen is the degree
(12:16):
of people driving under the influence, Kids in high school,
middle school having access to it, people dropping out of school,
not wanting to go to work. We have a big
earth of commercial drug drivers. I hear the media outlets going,
you know, why were we giving CDLs to illegal aliens
(12:38):
and illegal migrants here?
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Because there's I'm not saying this is an excuse.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
But if somebody smokes marijuana, uses marijuana, they can't get
a commercial driver's license. So that pool of young, strapping
individuals who want to be the.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Back vote of America and drive trucks started to shrink.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
So we were questioning the safety of marijuana and driving.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
And I remember initial studies coming out of Colorado going, no,
we really aren't seeing an uptick.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I'm like, really, I read there.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Are more marijuana related car accidents. No, no, we're not
seeing it.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
It's safe.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
Well no, I'm I'm watching people get into their car.
You're seeing them smoke in the parking lot and then
get in into their car. And I had even suggested
maybe before, you know, it's one thing to legalize it,
but maybe before we you know, mass you know, allow
it and give certain people licenses so they could sell
(13:42):
it and keep them open during the pandemic. Let's at
least make sure our cops have a way to do
a breathalyzer or to do a test to you know,
ensure that they aren't dying. And we just know, we're
just not there yet. And still here we are in
twenty twenty five, with individuals getting behind the wheel and
many individuals who use marijua lot of products, whether they
smoke them, they eat them, you know, like in terms
(14:05):
of edibles or baked goods.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
They don't feel high, just like those who drink alcohol.
They're like, I'm good, I'm good.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
And you're looking at them going, you're stammering your speech,
you're not standing still, No, you're not good. Well, we
have a study coming out of Ohio looking at the
growing number of marijuana users who are driving while high,
and they say forty percent of victims of fatal vehicle
accidents over the past six years have had elevated levels
(14:33):
of THHD in their blood. The drug screenings were performed
during the autopsy process. As you know, THHD tetrahydrocannabiol is
the psychoactive compound of the cannabis plant. That's what makes
you feel if you forig gigli whatever. And the Right
State university led study was this has been reported by
Fox News and this was published in the Journal of
(14:54):
American College of Surgeons.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Looked at two hundred and forty six dead drivers.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
The researchers that forty two percent of them tested positive
for thhc average blood level of thirty point seven nanograms
per millileter, which is a high amount. Those levels remained
high over a six year period, despite the state recently
legalizing recreational cannabis. They said the levels found in the
study were far higher than the legal limit. The legal
(15:19):
limit is two two nanograms, not thirty uh Colorado, Washington, Nevada,
the legal limit is five nanograms. So you know, we're
seeing more and more individuals that are not caring.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
They're using marijuana for variety reasons.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
One recreational, one you know, for sleep, one for medicinal purposes.
But we're not informing people that, you know, it's not
just about drunk driving. Your marijuana can get you know,
picked up, that can be used as evidence and you
can go to jail for a long time if you
are under the influence. But people don't seem to care.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
I told you. I was speaking at a high school,
local high school, and.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
One of the kids, one of the teenagers, raises her
hand and says, how do I get my parents to
stop smoking pot?
Speaker 2 (16:12):
While they're driving me to school?
Speaker 4 (16:13):
The car fills up with smoke, and I smell a
pot when I come to school. Now you know what
was she does? She smoke pot and she was trying
to use that as a way to say, well, blame.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
It on my parents.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
But I looked at the teacher and I, you know,
like this, we gotta get ahold of parents, We gotta
look at this.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
And she said she's gonna take care of it.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
But if parents are driving their kids to school smoking dope,
this is dangerous stuff. Not to mention these kids don't
want to breathe this stuff in the pesticides, the contaminants,
the metals, and so you know, many people feel that
if they eat an edible then it's okay because they're
not smoking, and they're not necessarily feeling as much of
(16:53):
a high as they might with no. No, it all
can put you under the influence. And in fact, marijuana
the these days is a lot more potent. This isn't
your grandfather's dope. This is a lot more potent because
people got used to it than I used it. And
in order for there to be a market and competition,
somebody had to sell it stronger than another person's product.
(17:15):
So the stuff on the market's pretty pretty strong. And
we see this in the medical realm of people having psychosis,
people having severe nausea. Somebody will be having cyclical vomiting
or very severe vomiting. We call it cannabis hyper embasis syndrome.
Hyper embhasis is multiple vomiting episodes. And I'll ask them,
(17:39):
I go, have you used marijuana recently? And they said
yes to control the nausea. Michael, how often are you
using it? Well, I'm using a few times a day
because I'm really nauseous. Well, it's building up. Another thing
about marijuana is the half life of marijuana is a
lot longer. Marijuana could be in your system for days, weeks,
You could pick it up on a drug test sometimes
(17:59):
a month later, as opposed to alcohol.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
But people that the word's not getting out.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Once something is legal, people think, okay, well then it's good,
or it's healthy, or it's And there was a child
that was killed. She was in the backseat of a
car because somebody high on dope. I think all we
had in assistant was marijuana rams the car kills the
daughter in the back seat. So well, we got some
(18:26):
work out, you know, to.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Cut out for us.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
You know, marijuana con dull our senses, effect our coordation,
make us less astute as it pertains to rules, and
and it when when you don't have those reflexes you need.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I mean, I drive.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
I drive in southern Nevada, so we have three main
highways and we kind of make fun of the highways
where the fifteen, you know, is usually always busy and
crowded like an LA highway.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
So you just sit there and you know, you know,
maybe five miles an hour.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
You have the ninety five that also gets blocked up,
but you're able to stell speed, but people.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Don't follow the rules.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
And then you got the two fifteen, which kind of
circles the city and we look at it like a racetrack,
and I gotta tell you, I see people drive on
that sucker and I smell pot. Now, Now the two
fifteen is in a non congested area of the city.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
It's out there in the desert.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
And for me to smell pot, not with my window closed,
coming in through the car's filter system, means that potency
of that car that just sped by me had to
have been really really high.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
And you know, some.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
People will say, but doctor Dahlia, I gotta identify a
marijuana smoker on the road because they drive really really slow.
Some of them will also drive fast. As much as
we would like to simplify things saying, well, somebody on
alcohol is going to swerve, whereas somebody with marijuana is
going to be driving paranoid, and not entirely because there's
different strains. Some of the strains of marijuana more stimulate,
(20:00):
some are more relaxing. But these falling asleep at the wheel.
Is it somebody who's sleep deprived, Is it somebody who
had a stroke, or is it somebody who you know
has too much cannabis.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
In their system.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
And also people who use marijuana may not understand that
it's additive and cumulative. So whatever you're getting in your
system today is going to still be there tomorrow, still
be their Friday, still be their next Monday. So as
you're adding more, you know you're having a higher blood
content and tissue content. So quit driving stoned. We really
(20:36):
need to be able to test a lot easier than
we do and just stop the craft. What eight seven
seven doctor dollar, They don't go away.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
At Hotshot Secret, we share the science behind common diesel
problems in their solutions.
Speaker 9 (21:06):
For example, diesel fuel setane levels.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.
Treatment of hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme will raise your
seatane seven points, increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts.
Due to a cleaner burn, there are less hydrocarbons in
particulate matter in your exhaust. This reduces the blockage of
(21:30):
your diesel particulate filter. Using Diesel Extreme generates eighty three
percent less DPF regenerations. The six and one Diesel Extreme
formula also includes the most concentrated detergent on the market,
lubricity enhancer, water demulsifier, rust and corrosion inhibitors, and a
fuel stabilizer.

Speaker 4 (22:28):
So, have any of you guys ever gotten your car
or truck towed?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
I haven't. I have been very, very lucky my whole life.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
But it happened to my son this weekend, and it sucked.
And I think there's a lot of scams and predatory
behavior out there that I want to warn you all about.
So because I think they lay in waiting and then
as soon as they think you are in violation, they
(22:59):
grow have your car go and then they hold it hostage.
And so this weekend was the Renaissance Fare in Las Vegas, Nevada. Now,
the Renaissance Fair has been something I love going to,
but I think this might be the last time I
go to it because it used to you used to
be able to find parking.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
There'd be a lot.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
You could park on, and you know, and even though
I could use my media pass, now if I'm coming
with family and all that, I you know, it's I
don't necessarily go, oh, I'm media. I'm sure I could,
but but you know, because I cover it and I
promoted and that kind of stuff. But you know, this
time around, they wanted to shunt people to another lot
(23:38):
that was far away and then use shuttle buses. Well,
the problem with that for me is if I have
to go to the bathroom, right, not only are you
waiting in line to get on a shuttle bus, but
then you're waiting in line to to get on one
to leave the event, and it could add an extra
few hours to the event. Remember I told you guys,
(23:58):
I want to go to the Nellis Air Force Space
Air Show and the shuttle line. We were in line
for two hours and I'm like, I just can't just
to get onto a bus. We weren't sure what was
going on with the buses, you know, and and so
you know, for me, I just don't have all day
to spend. So my son was with his girlfriend and
they're like, well, we're gonna go get somebody to eat
and then we'll meet you.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
So they parked.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Across the street to go get something to eat and
then they were gonna come and meet us. Well, we
were there for about an hour or so, and it
was cool. I posted us a pictures.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
It was great.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
I got to see a camel and have them camel
alloted to like lick whatever salt was on my hand.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
I don't know what the cant was doing. And it
was pretty cool.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Ooh and then the nassil Uh, the the gone Door
sword from Lord of the Rings before it broke into pieces.
That was really really cool. They all got to yeah,
I love the Renaists Ferry. It's really really cool. But
we're like, look, you know, uh, we'll uh, we'll drive
you back to your car.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
So we drove them back to the car and the
car is gone.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Even though they were there in the parking lot to
go eat, they were the car's gone and there wasn't
even covered parking. It wasn't there was like no sign,
so we thought the car got stolen. So then for
poops and giggles, we're like, well, I wonder if it
got towed. So we're driving around for about five minutes
to try to see is there a possible toe sign,
(25:15):
because how do you know where the car is if
somebody towed it?
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Who's the towing company? Where does it go?
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Well, behind some bushes there was a sign, so we
called it and they go, yeah, we have your car.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
And you know, we weren't really at the Renaissance Fair
that long, and I'm like, well, I bet they're still
on the road. Where is it. Well, it was about
I don't know, maybe twelve thirteen miles.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Away the toe company, So I'm like, I bet we
could even catch them on the road. But so we
start to go down there and and we get to
the total company. You start to see all these people
in Renaissance Fair close walk into this tow company.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
We're thinking to ourselves, Look, this is gonna be a
good couple hundred bucks. Just prepare. Towing fees are not good.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
It cost five hundred eighty dollars to get his car back.
Why well, the basic towing fee was three sixty, but
because it was a weekend night, they slapped on more money.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
They said, like an extra one hundred hundred and fifty.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Then they charged per mile that they had to drive
the car seventeen.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Dollars per mile.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
And then on top of that they added some extra bsfee.
I forget what they said. Oh, because it was a
special event. So by the time people got out of
their five eighty. Now the average person doesn't have that
money in their wallet. They don't have it in their
bank account. And you saw the worry these people had,
(26:46):
and you heard people go But I was only there
for a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I was only there.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
Well, that's kind of what happens. I mean, if you
park at a place you're not supposed to park, you get towed.
But we calculated based on the time they must have
been just right, they're sitting to catch And I've been
hearing about these tow truck scams. And I live in
a place that always had free parking, always had you know,
you know usually, I mean, we got the coolest, coolest.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
I live in southern Nevada. All there is is land.
All there are is fields and desert.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
But these toe truck companies know how to make money
and so adding extra fees because they can.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
There's no way to fight it.
Speaker 4 (27:30):
So five hundred and eighty dollars for them having our
car for five minutes.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Not cool, Not cool at all.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
And you know, many individuals that don't have that kind
of money that you struggle. And so one thing that
I'm really, you know, kind of grumpy with and salty
about is, you know, we have such amazing sports events
and hockey and all that, but we get scammed on
the parking and the price. See and so if you
(28:02):
don't want to spend I think I wanted to go
to a Golden Nights game and parking was forty five bucks.
So on top of your ticket, which is now getting
high priced, on top of that, we had to pay
an extra forty five And that's actually good. I'm hearing
that some parking is more. Why well, because these companies
could charge for it they could charge for it.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
So people are paying it.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And if you're trying to find another place to go
and you don't see a toe sign, well that you
could be really, really screwed. So I think the key
is is to just uber or left where you're gonna go.
But that could cost about forty fifty dollars depending on
where you are.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
And it's frustrating because I don't want to be the.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
One to say I'm not gonna go somewhere because of
parking or because I don't want to get towed.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I remember hearing my grandparents talk like that.
Speaker 4 (28:44):
I'm like, why would you miss an event because you're
worried about something that's not gonna happen. Yeah, I mean
I get if you're worried about a mass shooter, but
you're you're worried about getting towed. Well, now I see.
Now I am frightened to park anywhere. And what really
kind of gets me is this Renaissance fair. What the
Renaissance fair used to be about was people dressing up,
(29:06):
you know, enjoying you know, the Lord of the rings,
and the nights and and the the chivalry and watching
shows and all that. It has gotten to be such
a money crab, and you know, the experience, and then
to eat, to try and eat lines and lines and lines,
and of course the food was exorbitant in terms of cost.
(29:28):
And I get you know, everybody needs to make money,
and these people that work these renaissance fairs, God bless them.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
You know, this is the only income they have.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
But when you throw all this on top of each other,
I mean, this weekend ended up being a really expensive weekend.
And the reason why you go to these fairs, the
reason why you go to these events is because you're
you're you're trying to not spend a lot of money
and you're trying to enjoy the day.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
You're you're trying, you know.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
I that's what I love about watching sports because you
tell everybody to we do a pot luck, bring everybody over,
have the kids play, have the game going on in
the background. You can make a day of it without
spending a lot of money. So you think, I'm gonna
go to the Renaissance Fair. It's gonna be cool, it's
gonna be experience. I mean, by the time you bought
tickets and food, we're talking hundreds of dollars, and that
(30:16):
rooms it for everybody the Renaissance Fair cannot be just
a rich person's day. Disneyland has gotten ridiculous. I told
you guys, I was looking for a room to go Wednesday,
to drive in Wednesday night and be at the park
on Thursday. Disneyland Hotel was five two hundred and ninety
dollars a night, and I posted that picture on Facebook
(30:38):
and Twitter. No I, And then I looked at some
of the cheaper motels. King Zenn was eleven hundred dollars.
What what are these people doing? Not to mention it
about two hundred bucks a ticket. Disneyland is now for
rich people.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
It's not for middle income.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
And then I live where we have the WNBA and
Goace is well done winning and we have the Raiders,
we have the Golden Knights, we have the Aviators, we
we have Why are these luckily the aviators? It's it's
it's it's more reasonable, but the locals can't enjoy its.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
It costs an arm and lag.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
It's costs so much money just to enjoy the sports
and support your team. That's wrong and these money grabs
are ridiculous, and just throwing more insultal injury is the
stupid toastuff and you don't see where the toe truck is,
they shut their lights, they hide, and even if it's
a couple of blocks away or and then they then
(31:35):
they have a scout and then they probably say okay,
all right, get them.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
So just be careful.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
You know, if you were always able to park on
a field or park somewhere before.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Uhh careful one.

Thank you over dinnen In one eight seven seven dot

Speaker 2 (34:24):
D O C D A L. I.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
So, a very common question I get is from individuals
who are surprised that their job is going to do
drug testing. How long do they have to get the
drug out of their system? And what can they do
to facilitate that? And I'm telling you right now there
(34:50):
are no products or anything like that that I would
even uh suggest that that has any sort of reliability
safety for something like that. And you know, if you
did drugs, they're gonna show up at the test. The
tests now were really, really good, the days of well,
I'm gonna drink just a lot of water, and I'm
(35:10):
going to no because your your kidney's concentrate wherever your
body wants water. You know, you could try diluting your urine,
but that could cause medical issues. And if they see
diluted urine, that's a red flag. So you're trying to
drink a lot of water, such that your kidneys are
only passing water.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
And now these tests are really able.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
To pick things up. So just to kind of review
what the timeframe is. It really depends on the drug
and most it also depends on the testing. I mean
a hair follicle test, Wow, I mean yeah, if you
use the marijuana, that could be in your hair for
three months now. But if it's a urine test, roughly
(35:51):
they say alcohol will be in your system or the
urine tests will pick it up if you've had alcohol
within twelve hours. If you take amphetamines, speed two to
three days for typical use, but if you're on them extensively,
even longer. If you take benzodiazepines, depending on if it's
(36:12):
like a short term atavan or klonipin versus like valium,
which is more longer term benzodiazepines, they could be in
your system for up to a month. Cocaine, if you
use cocaine heavily, it could be weeks it being.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
In your urine test.
Speaker 4 (36:32):
If it was a one time deal, maybe a few days.
Heroin and other opioids at least a few days.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
Now. It does have a half life.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
They do have half lifes, and some of them are
shorter acting, but longer acting could be longer. And then marijuana,
the THHC component. If you're a casual user, they could
be in your urine test for up to week. If
you're a chronic user, it could be there for about
a month. Now, sometimes companies will do blood tests, and
blood tests have even higher specificity than you'urine tests. Cocaine
(37:07):
they could pick up within twelve hours. Opioids they could
pick up obviously within a day or two. And then
marijuana in the blood. Now, in the blood, it's interesting
in marijuana it might last only a few days.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
In the blood tests.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
Well, why well, because blood is it's not like hair
or other tissues where it could collect.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
And so your blood test because some people are like,
well blood test is.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
For me because that it's not as a chronic the
the I could it won't pick it up if I've
used let's say the drug days before. Yeah, but the
concentration that it could pick up on may be stronger.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
So it's kind of hit or miss. So you know,
what do you do? You have a job.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
You want a job, you want to get a commercial
driver license, you want to work for a company, and
then you come to find out that marijuana is a
no no. And this is something that a lot of
people struggle with. Just because certain states legalized marijuana doesn't
mean you can't get fired. I mean it's yeah, it's
(38:20):
it's still considered federally an illicit substance and under the influence,
and so people are so shocked. They're like, but it's
marijuana is legal where I live. Well, just like alcohol,
if somebody wanted to know if you drink alcohol and and.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
Test you, you know, or you can't have alcohol on
the job, and and I know there's a.
Speaker 4 (38:42):
Big difference between on the job and it being in
your system, but marijuana is a little different because it
could be in your system for a long period of time.
So you know, they you I I really want to
help people who want to work.
Speaker 2 (38:59):
Okay, I don't want people.
Speaker 4 (39:00):
Working high, but I definitely want to assist people in
getting their job back.
Speaker 2 (39:05):
So I'm not telling you how to pass a drug test.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
But there's a few things you need to do first
and foremost is get documentation from a medical provider.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
If you are taking marijuana.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
Or doing gummies or whatever because of a medical condition,
then get documentation of that medical condition. What we are
seeing is that the ADA, the Americans with Disabilities Act,
allow shall we say, modifications and accommodations, I should say
accommodations depending on your medical condition.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
So let's say you have insombia and you.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
Are at risk of being addicted to sleeping pills, and
you know, notify your doctor saying look for sleep. This
is what I'm using, you know, but I would like
your recommendation or you know, is that safer than other
sleeping aids. Now, most doctors are not going to say
marijuana is SI for you know that They would tell you,
(40:02):
you know, let's work on sleep, Let's.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Get you into some therapy, let's check you for sleep apnea.
Speaker 4 (40:07):
But you having a doctor's node and showing that you
were in the process of talking to that you know,
medical provider and you're you're treating an issue.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
Could provide you some protection.
Speaker 6 (40:24):
You know.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
I obviously don't use the drug.
Speaker 4 (40:27):
I mean that the the the drug tests are going
to be coming back and I think we're going to
be seeing them more and more.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Why because of liability? And I told you this.
Speaker 4 (40:36):
I told you that, you know, legalizing marijuana, which is
something I voted for in my neck of the woods
because I wanted police freed up, you know, from not
having to you know, they could deal with the.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
More you know, serious crimes. I wanted us to be
able to study it.
Speaker 4 (40:50):
So we had another alternative, you know, for people in
chronic pain, because I think I thought they were going
to you know, ridiculously restrict access to pain medicines by
blaming doctors for the Fendel crisis, you know, and then uh,
you know, just to to learn about it and and
and to to see what medicine applications are there. Well,
(41:12):
you know, one side effect of that is, oh, fewer
people want to go to work.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
You're like, oh, I remember being late for work. How
you would panic that you would be laid for work
because you could lose your job.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
Now, we just don't seem to have people panic too
much about losing their job these days.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
Like, uh, ain no thing but a chicken wing. I'm good.
Speaker 4 (41:32):
And so many employers are a little frustrated because they're,
you know, some of their employees aren't coming back to work,
so they want to know, is this a marijuana user,
you know, who might be more prone to calling out
or sleeping in. I understand ted that movie seemed to
really be over stereotype. Uh, you know, most people who
use marijuana casually are going to make it to their job,
(41:55):
but that's a way for them to screen and see
if it's going to be somebody who calls out.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
And then another thing is liability.
Speaker 4 (42:03):
So even though marijuana is legal, they do not want
doctors and nurses using marijuana and having it in the
system because if anything does go wrong, you know, and
you fail a drug test, that's on them. So many
industries will not allow you to use and and it
it's it's a question that keeps coming up. You know,
(42:25):
does my surgeon use pot? And is anybody checking them?
And how do we know it's not at a level
that could be affecting their reaction time? And so most hospitals,
especially for privileges, they're just like, you know, no drugs.
I don't care how legal it is now. Do doctors
drink alcohol on occasion? Of course, do doctors use drugs.
(42:47):
I'm sure there's a lot of doctors that do use marijuana,
but they they're you know, they're based on where you work,
not supposed to and and you know, it's it's so
ambiquitous now that we you know, we we take it
for granted, but hearing people panic because they're going to
(43:09):
be possibly failing their drug test. My advice is one,
try not to use it to get at least a
doctor's note you know that can you'll provide you some
sort of protection. And then if you are using it
for a medical condition, you know, start getting a paper
trail on that you know, and find something better and safer,
because most likely you're not going to be able to
(43:30):
even if you do get the job, continue to use
the drug seven Doctor Dolly. Hey guys, it's doctor Dahalia.

Thank you all for guining in.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
One eight seven seven Doctor Dolly one eight seven seven
D O C D A L. I. So before we
begin this next hour, I wanted to kind of bring
up something that that I think is really relative to life.
And I know some of you guys are gonna get mad,
you know that I'm bringing this up, But you know
I'm a Dallas copy fan.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Ya have at them Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
And I've always loved the Cowboys, but they're in a
thirty year kind of slump. I don't think they've won
a Super Bowl in nearly thirty years. Over thirty years now, no,
thirty years. Yeah, And I watched America's Dream. It was
a Netflix show. Let me see what was it called.
It was America's Dream. Yeah, the Gambler Boys, And so
(01:23):
it talked about the Cowboys legacy and Jerry Jones and
some of his decisions, and I'm glad actually shut my
volume off there. I'm glad I watched it because I've
been very frustrated with Jerry Jones.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I think a lot of people are.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
But there's a lot of life lessons that we pick
up seeing these docuseries on people's rise and fall. Now
I knew what was going on with the Cowboys kind
of superficially during the nineties. The nineties was one of
their huge legacy years. I mean, you got the Roger
Staubuch era, but then you have the nineties, the Troy
(01:58):
Aikman and Emmitt Smith and Marv Irwin and or No Yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Deon Sanders and the guys.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I don't want to forget anybody, Emma Smith, they were
just all But anyway, you had the dream Team. I
was at school, I was in undergrad, and then I
was in college, and so I always worked Sunday, so
I never really had time to watch.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
I only got bits and pieces, and I knew, you.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Know, Troy Aikman was pretty pretty good. I knew Eva
Smith was awesome. But this show reminded me of a
lot because you know, when I talk about the Cowboys
with my friends, now I go, I remember some of
the stuff in the nineties, but it's a blur, and
this kind of re reinvigorated and and kind of reminded
you like the herschel Walker trade.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
We basically what happened.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
In essence, and Jerry Jones decides to buy h He
Actually he was a risk taker himself.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I don't think he was born rich. I think his dad.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Owned a shop and they lived on the top floor
of that little store or on the second floor.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
And so he was a razor back.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
I believe he played I forget which position in college football.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
So he played college football with Jimmy Johnson, who was
one of his.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Best buddies, and then they ended up he ended up
making some real estate investments to get borrowing money and
borrowing money, and apparently he said he was in so
much debt that his wife was worried and calls you
her father.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
So now the father in law is getting involved, like
what's going on here?
Speaker 4 (03:23):
But then I guess he invests in oil rigs, and
according to the story, one hits and he makes one
hundred million dollars and he says, I'm buying a I'm
gonna buy.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
A football team.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
He had originally wanted to buy the Chargers, I think
when he was only twenty eight years old, and he
went to the Teamsters for loans and he met Jimmy
Haffa and his father was like, you're not going to be,
you know, working with Jimmy Hafa and the mob.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
That's not a good idea.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
And so he ended up not buying the Chargers and
I got sold to the client group. That's neither here
nor there. But what's interesting is the fact that you
would be in debt and you would keep borrowing. See,
I'm not a risk taker. I don't double down and
double down and I don't do that because I usually lose. Well,
he won, I mean he hit his rigs, struck oil,
and he he made.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
A lot of money. But it was interesting where he.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Had that gumption, that that gut, those guts, that grit
to keep going. So then he ends up buying the
Dallas Cowboy football team and he buys the team that
was at their loss. Sometimes you want to buy at
the low price, just like with stocks. You want to
buy a low but you want to make sure it's
not gonna.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Be a failure.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
And so one of the best players they had was
herschel Walker. They decided to trade hershel Walker. They're the
best player they had. I think they traded him to
the Vikings. That allowed them to get five players and
multiple draft picks, and that's how they get Emmitt Smith,
and that's how they start getting some of their other players,
and they basically shake it all up. They end up
(04:50):
drafting Troy Aikman, they draft their team, and then they
end up getting you know, especially under Jimmy Johnson, then
to so bot Witz.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Then Jerry decides to fire Jimmy Johnson.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
There's the fights, and there's the you know, who gets
credit for what, and then they go through a whole
bunch of coaches. And now we're at the point where
the Cowboys are very very micromanaged by their owner because
even though the owner might have made a good move
with that you know, herschel Walker trade, now he is
still I you know, many people feel he's in the way.
(05:23):
And I'm not here to talk football, but this idea
of going two steps forward because you took one step
back is very common in life, whether it's health or not,
Like you need to cut to heel. I mean, if
I'm having a bad appendix now you got to take
it out, and sometimes that means cutting you open. And
in medicine we always cut to heel or we treat.
(05:45):
You know, we understand that sometimes the treatment, you know,
might you know, might necessarily you know, I don't want
to say hurt, but cause a regression in in shall
we say the body's process, because we know it's going
to heal. So for example, let's say you have a
really bad wound and you never got stitches, and so
(06:06):
the wound now didn't heal right, and you have some
poorly healing tissue. We might breed and clean out that
poorly healed tissue just so then the new tissue could grow.
It's this, you know, two steps forward, one step back
sort of idea.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
And that's what I gleaned from this.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
You know, America's Team Netflix series they sometimes you might
want to hold on and hold on to something to
go well, I think it's valuable. I think it's valuable,
and sometimes you might just need to. You know, let's
say you're living in a house that you don't need.
It's thirty five hundred square feet and you don't need that,
(06:43):
and you might be able to get ahead if you
sell it. Go to something smaller, and we forget to
do that because we think we always have to move forward,
we always have to gain, we have to get bigger
and bigger and bigger, and not necessarily now the idea
of micromanaging, that's another big lesson.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
Now.

I understand Jerry Jones has some football experience he played,
but that's not what he does. You know, as a doctor,
I'm a family doctor, so I know a lot about everything.
I know a lot about ob I know a lot

smell pot. I mean, it's just it's being used ubiquitously.
(10:44):
I wish it'd smelled better, but yeah, everywhere I go
it just stinks.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
I mean, you smell it.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
That's what I think I've actually liked about Colorado is,
even though Colorado was one of the first states to
legalize marijuana, you're outside, you're hiking, you're you're mountain climbing,
you're not in and so you get some fresh air.
But when you're in the city, uh, and whether it's Vegas,
New York, LA, it just you just smell it. You
(11:11):
go to a hotel room or a motel room and
and it just reeks of it. And it's it's frustrating
that that this is where we are today, where you know,
legalizing marijuana, which is something I supported so people had
access to something for pain, because we knew that pain
medications were going to start getting limited because they were
(11:32):
blaming the fentandel crisis on doctors and not the cartels
and drug use and the farious groups that are you know,
make drug dealers. But I wanted that. I wanted available
for those who needed it. I also wanted us to
study it so we could see where the medicineal health
applications are and hard to study something that's class Schedule
(11:55):
one and and illegal in many states. And then I
also want the police freedom so then don't have to
be sitting there pulling people over, you know, for small
amounts of marijuana. They could deal with the more aggressive
and more violent crimes. So yeah, I voted to legalize it.
What I didn't think was gonna happen is the degree
(12:16):
of people driving under the influence, Kids in high school,
middle school having access to it, people dropping out of school,
not wanting to go to work. We have a big
earth of commercial drug drivers. I hear the media outlets going,
you know, why were we giving CDLs to illegal aliens
(12:38):
and illegal migrants here?
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Because there's I'm not saying this is an excuse.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
But if somebody smokes marijuana, uses marijuana, they can't get
a commercial driver's license. So that pool of young, strapping
individuals who want to be the.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Back vote of America and drive trucks started to shrink.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
So we were questioning the safety of marijuana and driving.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
And I remember initial studies coming out of Colorado going, no,
we really aren't seeing an uptick.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I'm like, really, I read there.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Are more marijuana related car accidents. No, no, we're not
seeing it.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
It's safe.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
Well no, I'm I'm watching people get into their car.
You're seeing them smoke in the parking lot and then
get in into their car. And I had even suggested
maybe before, you know, it's one thing to legalize it,
but maybe before we you know, mass you know, allow
it and give certain people licenses so they could sell
(13:42):
it and keep them open during the pandemic. Let's at
least make sure our cops have a way to do
a breathalyzer or to do a test to you know,
ensure that they aren't dying. And we just know, we're
just not there yet. And still here we are in
twenty twenty five, with individuals getting behind the wheel and
many individuals who use marijua lot of products, whether they
smoke them, they eat them, you know, like in terms
(14:05):
of edibles or baked goods.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
They don't feel high, just like those who drink alcohol.
They're like, I'm good, I'm good.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
And you're looking at them going, you're stammering your speech,
you're not standing still, No, you're not good. Well, we
have a study coming out of Ohio looking at the
growing number of marijuana users who are driving while high,
and they say forty percent of victims of fatal vehicle
accidents over the past six years have had elevated levels
(14:33):
of THHD in their blood. The drug screenings were performed
during the autopsy process. As you know, THHD tetrahydrocannabiol is
the psychoactive compound of the cannabis plant. That's what makes
you feel if you forig gigli whatever. And the Right
State university led study was this has been reported by
Fox News and this was published in the Journal of
(14:54):
American College of Surgeons.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Looked at two hundred and forty six dead drivers.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
The researchers that forty two percent of them tested positive
for thhc average blood level of thirty point seven nanograms
per millileter, which is a high amount. Those levels remained
high over a six year period, despite the state recently
legalizing recreational cannabis. They said the levels found in the
study were far higher than the legal limit. The legal
(15:19):
limit is two two nanograms, not thirty uh Colorado, Washington, Nevada,
the legal limit is five nanograms. So you know, we're
seeing more and more individuals that are not caring.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
They're using marijuana for variety reasons.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
One recreational, one you know, for sleep, one for medicinal purposes.
But we're not informing people that, you know, it's not
just about drunk driving. Your marijuana can get you know,
picked up, that can be used as evidence and you
can go to jail for a long time if you
are under the influence. But people don't seem to care.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
I told you. I was speaking at a high school,
local high school, and.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
One of the kids, one of the teenagers, raises her
hand and says, how do I get my parents to
stop smoking pot?
Speaker 2 (16:12):
While they're driving me to school?
Speaker 4 (16:13):
The car fills up with smoke, and I smell a
pot when I come to school. Now you know what
was she does? She smoke pot and she was trying
to use that as a way to say, well, blame.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
It on my parents.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
But I looked at the teacher and I, you know,
like this, we gotta get ahold of parents, We gotta
look at this.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
And she said she's gonna take care of it.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
But if parents are driving their kids to school smoking dope,
this is dangerous stuff. Not to mention these kids don't
want to breathe this stuff in the pesticides, the contaminants,
the metals, and so you know, many people feel that
if they eat an edible then it's okay because they're
not smoking, and they're not necessarily feeling as much of
(16:53):
a high as they might with no. No, it all
can put you under the influence. And in fact, marijuana
the these days is a lot more potent. This isn't
your grandfather's dope. This is a lot more potent because
people got used to it than I used it. And
in order for there to be a market and competition,
somebody had to sell it stronger than another person's product.
(17:15):
So the stuff on the market's pretty pretty strong. And
we see this in the medical realm of people having psychosis,
people having severe nausea. Somebody will be having cyclical vomiting
or very severe vomiting. We call it cannabis hyper embasis syndrome.
Hyper embhasis is multiple vomiting episodes. And I'll ask them,
(17:39):
I go, have you used marijuana recently? And they said
yes to control the nausea. Michael, how often are you
using it? Well, I'm using a few times a day
because I'm really nauseous. Well, it's building up. Another thing
about marijuana is the half life of marijuana is a
lot longer. Marijuana could be in your system for days, weeks,
You could pick it up on a drug test sometimes
(17:59):
a month later, as opposed to alcohol.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
But people that the word's not getting out.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Once something is legal, people think, okay, well then it's good,
or it's healthy, or it's And there was a child
that was killed. She was in the backseat of a
car because somebody high on dope. I think all we
had in assistant was marijuana rams the car kills the
daughter in the back seat. So well, we got some
(18:26):
work out, you know, to.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Cut out for us.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
You know, marijuana con dull our senses, effect our coordation,
make us less astute as it pertains to rules, and
and it when when you don't have those reflexes you need.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I mean, I drive.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
I drive in southern Nevada, so we have three main
highways and we kind of make fun of the highways
where the fifteen, you know, is usually always busy and
crowded like an LA highway.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
So you just sit there and you know, you know,
maybe five miles an hour.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
You have the ninety five that also gets blocked up,
but you're able to stell speed, but people.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Don't follow the rules.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
And then you got the two fifteen, which kind of
circles the city and we look at it like a racetrack,
and I gotta tell you, I see people drive on
that sucker and I smell pot. Now, Now the two
fifteen is in a non congested area of the city.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
It's out there in the desert.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
And for me to smell pot, not with my window closed,
coming in through the car's filter system, means that potency
of that car that just sped by me had to
have been really really high.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
And you know, some.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
People will say, but doctor Dahlia, I gotta identify a
marijuana smoker on the road because they drive really really slow.
Some of them will also drive fast. As much as
we would like to simplify things saying, well, somebody on
alcohol is going to swerve, whereas somebody with marijuana is
going to be driving paranoid, and not entirely because there's
different strains. Some of the strains of marijuana more stimulate,
(20:00):
some are more relaxing. But these falling asleep at the wheel.
Is it somebody who's sleep deprived, Is it somebody who
had a stroke, or is it somebody who you know
has too much cannabis.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
In their system.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
And also people who use marijuana may not understand that
it's additive and cumulative. So whatever you're getting in your
system today is going to still be there tomorrow, still
be their Friday, still be their next Monday. So as
you're adding more, you know you're having a higher blood
content and tissue content. So quit driving stoned. We really
(20:36):
need to be able to test a lot easier than
we do and just stop the craft. What eight seven
seven doctor dollar, They don't go away.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
At Hotshot Secret, we share the science behind common diesel
problems in their solutions.
Speaker 9 (21:06):
For example, diesel fuel setane levels.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.
Treatment of hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme will raise your
seatane seven points, increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts.
Due to a cleaner burn, there are less hydrocarbons in
particulate matter in your exhaust. This reduces the blockage of
(21:30):
your diesel particulate filter. Using Diesel Extreme generates eighty three
percent less DPF regenerations. The six and one Diesel Extreme
formula also includes the most concentrated detergent on the market,
lubricity enhancer, water demulsifier, rust and corrosion inhibitors, and a
fuel stabilizer.

Speaker 4 (22:28):
So, have any of you guys ever gotten your car
or truck towed?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
I haven't. I have been very, very lucky my whole life.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
But it happened to my son this weekend, and it sucked.
And I think there's a lot of scams and predatory
behavior out there that I want to warn you all about.
So because I think they lay in waiting and then
as soon as they think you are in violation, they
(22:59):
grow have your car go and then they hold it hostage.
And so this weekend was the Renaissance Fare in Las Vegas, Nevada. Now,
the Renaissance Fair has been something I love going to,
but I think this might be the last time I
go to it because it used to you used to
be able to find parking.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
There'd be a lot.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
You could park on, and you know, and even though
I could use my media pass, now if I'm coming
with family and all that, I you know, it's I
don't necessarily go, oh, I'm media. I'm sure I could,
but but you know, because I cover it and I
promoted and that kind of stuff. But you know, this
time around, they wanted to shunt people to another lot
(23:38):
that was far away and then use shuttle buses. Well,
the problem with that for me is if I have
to go to the bathroom, right, not only are you
waiting in line to get on a shuttle bus, but
then you're waiting in line to to get on one
to leave the event, and it could add an extra
few hours to the event. Remember I told you guys,
(23:58):
I want to go to the Nellis Air Force Space
Air Show and the shuttle line. We were in line
for two hours and I'm like, I just can't just
to get onto a bus. We weren't sure what was
going on with the buses, you know, and and so
you know, for me, I just don't have all day
to spend. So my son was with his girlfriend and
they're like, well, we're gonna go get somebody to eat
and then we'll meet you.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
So they parked.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Across the street to go get something to eat and
then they were gonna come and meet us. Well, we
were there for about an hour or so, and it
was cool. I posted us a pictures.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
It was great.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
I got to see a camel and have them camel
alloted to like lick whatever salt was on my hand.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
I don't know what the cant was doing. And it
was pretty cool.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Ooh and then the nassil Uh, the the gone Door
sword from Lord of the Rings before it broke into pieces.
That was really really cool. They all got to yeah,
I love the Renaists Ferry. It's really really cool. But
we're like, look, you know, uh, we'll uh, we'll drive
you back to your car.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
So we drove them back to the car and the
car is gone.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Even though they were there in the parking lot to
go eat, they were the car's gone and there wasn't
even covered parking. It wasn't there was like no sign,
so we thought the car got stolen. So then for
poops and giggles, we're like, well, I wonder if it
got towed. So we're driving around for about five minutes
to try to see is there a possible toe sign,
(25:15):
because how do you know where the car is if
somebody towed it?
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Who's the towing company? Where does it go?
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Well, behind some bushes there was a sign, so we
called it and they go, yeah, we have your car.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
And you know, we weren't really at the Renaissance Fair
that long, and I'm like, well, I bet they're still
on the road. Where is it. Well, it was about
I don't know, maybe twelve thirteen miles.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Away the toe company, So I'm like, I bet we
could even catch them on the road. But so we
start to go down there and and we get to
the total company. You start to see all these people
in Renaissance Fair close walk into this tow company.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
We're thinking to ourselves, Look, this is gonna be a
good couple hundred bucks. Just prepare. Towing fees are not good.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
It cost five hundred eighty dollars to get his car back.
Why well, the basic towing fee was three sixty, but
because it was a weekend night, they slapped on more money.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
They said, like an extra one hundred hundred and fifty.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Then they charged per mile that they had to drive
the car seventeen.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Dollars per mile.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
And then on top of that they added some extra bsfee.
I forget what they said. Oh, because it was a
special event. So by the time people got out of
their five eighty. Now the average person doesn't have that
money in their wallet. They don't have it in their
bank account. And you saw the worry these people had,
(26:46):
and you heard people go But I was only there
for a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I was only there.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
Well, that's kind of what happens. I mean, if you
park at a place you're not supposed to park, you get towed.
But we calculated based on the time they must have
been just right, they're sitting to catch And I've been
hearing about these tow truck scams. And I live in
a place that always had free parking, always had you know,
you know usually, I mean, we got the coolest, coolest.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
I live in southern Nevada. All there is is land.
All there are is fields and desert.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
But these toe truck companies know how to make money
and so adding extra fees because they can.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
There's no way to fight it.
Speaker 4 (27:30):
So five hundred and eighty dollars for them having our
car for five minutes.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Not cool, Not cool at all.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
And you know, many individuals that don't have that kind
of money that you struggle. And so one thing that
I'm really, you know, kind of grumpy with and salty
about is, you know, we have such amazing sports events
and hockey and all that, but we get scammed on
the parking and the price. See and so if you
(28:02):
don't want to spend I think I wanted to go
to a Golden Nights game and parking was forty five bucks.
So on top of your ticket, which is now getting
high priced, on top of that, we had to pay
an extra forty five And that's actually good. I'm hearing
that some parking is more. Why well, because these companies
could charge for it they could charge for it.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
So people are paying it.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And if you're trying to find another place to go
and you don't see a toe sign, well that you
could be really, really screwed. So I think the key
is is to just uber or left where you're gonna go.
But that could cost about forty fifty dollars depending on
where you are.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
And it's frustrating because I don't want to be the.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
One to say I'm not gonna go somewhere because of
parking or because I don't want to get towed.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I remember hearing my grandparents talk like that.
Speaker 4 (28:44):
I'm like, why would you miss an event because you're
worried about something that's not gonna happen. Yeah, I mean
I get if you're worried about a mass shooter, but
you're you're worried about getting towed. Well, now I see.
Now I am frightened to park anywhere. And what really
kind of gets me is this Renaissance fair. What the
Renaissance fair used to be about was people dressing up,
(29:06):
you know, enjoying you know, the Lord of the rings,
and the nights and and the the chivalry and watching
shows and all that. It has gotten to be such
a money crab, and you know, the experience, and then
to eat, to try and eat lines and lines and lines,
and of course the food was exorbitant in terms of cost.
(29:28):
And I get you know, everybody needs to make money,
and these people that work these renaissance fairs, God bless them.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
You know, this is the only income they have.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
But when you throw all this on top of each other,
I mean, this weekend ended up being a really expensive weekend.
And the reason why you go to these fairs, the
reason why you go to these events is because you're
you're you're trying to not spend a lot of money
and you're trying to enjoy the day.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
You're you're trying, you know.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
I that's what I love about watching sports because you
tell everybody to we do a pot luck, bring everybody over,
have the kids play, have the game going on in
the background. You can make a day of it without
spending a lot of money. So you think, I'm gonna
go to the Renaissance Fair. It's gonna be cool, it's
gonna be experience. I mean, by the time you bought
tickets and food, we're talking hundreds of dollars, and that
(30:16):
rooms it for everybody the Renaissance Fair cannot be just
a rich person's day. Disneyland has gotten ridiculous. I told
you guys, I was looking for a room to go Wednesday,
to drive in Wednesday night and be at the park
on Thursday. Disneyland Hotel was five two hundred and ninety
dollars a night, and I posted that picture on Facebook
(30:38):
and Twitter. No I, And then I looked at some
of the cheaper motels. King Zenn was eleven hundred dollars.
What what are these people doing? Not to mention it
about two hundred bucks a ticket. Disneyland is now for
rich people.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
It's not for middle income.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
And then I live where we have the WNBA and
Goace is well done winning and we have the Raiders,
we have the Golden Knights, we have the Aviators, we
we have Why are these luckily the aviators? It's it's
it's it's more reasonable, but the locals can't enjoy its.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
It costs an arm and lag.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
It's costs so much money just to enjoy the sports
and support your team. That's wrong and these money grabs
are ridiculous, and just throwing more insultal injury is the
stupid toastuff and you don't see where the toe truck is,
they shut their lights, they hide, and even if it's
a couple of blocks away or and then they then
(31:35):
they have a scout and then they probably say okay,
all right, get them.

So just be careful.

a field or park somewhere before.

Thank you over dinnen In one eight seven seven dot

Speaker 2 (34:24):
D O C D A L. I.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
So, a very common question I get is from individuals
who are surprised that their job is going to do
drug testing. How long do they have to get the
drug out of their system? And what can they do
to facilitate that? And I'm telling you right now there
(34:50):
are no products or anything like that that I would
even uh suggest that that has any sort of reliability
safety for something like that. And you know, if you
did drugs, they're gonna show up at the test. The
tests now were really, really good, the days of well,
I'm gonna drink just a lot of water, and I'm
(35:10):
going to no because your your kidney's concentrate wherever your
body wants water. You know, you could try diluting your urine,
but that could cause medical issues. And if they see
diluted urine, that's a red flag. So you're trying to
drink a lot of water, such that your kidneys are
only passing water.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
And now these tests are really able.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
To pick things up. So just to kind of review
what the timeframe is. It really depends on the drug
and most it also depends on the testing. I mean
a hair follicle test, Wow, I mean yeah, if you
use the marijuana, that could be in your hair for
three months now. But if it's a urine test, roughly
(35:51):
they say alcohol will be in your system or the
urine tests will pick it up if you've had alcohol
within twelve hours. If you take amphetamines, speed two to
three days for typical use, but if you're on them extensively,
even longer. If you take benzodiazepines, depending on if it's
(36:12):
like a short term atavan or klonipin versus like valium,
which is more longer term benzodiazepines, they could be in
your system for up to a month. Cocaine, if you
use cocaine heavily, it could be weeks it being.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
In your urine test.
Speaker 4 (36:32):
If it was a one time deal, maybe a few days.
Heroin and other opioids at least a few days.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
Now. It does have a half life.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
They do have half lifes, and some of them are
shorter acting, but longer acting could be longer. And then marijuana,
the THHC component. If you're a casual user, they could
be in your urine test for up to week. If
you're a chronic user, it could be there for about
a month. Now, sometimes companies will do blood tests, and
blood tests have even higher specificity than you'urine tests. Cocaine
(37:07):
they could pick up within twelve hours. Opioids they could
pick up obviously within a day or two. And then
marijuana in the blood. Now, in the blood, it's interesting
in marijuana it might last only a few days.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
In the blood tests.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
Well, why well, because blood is it's not like hair
or other tissues where it could collect.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
And so your blood test because some people are like,
well blood test is.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
For me because that it's not as a chronic the
the I could it won't pick it up if I've
used let's say the drug days before. Yeah, but the
concentration that it could pick up on may be stronger.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
So it's kind of hit or miss. So you know,
what do you do? You have a job.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
You want a job, you want to get a commercial
driver license, you want to work for a company, and
then you come to find out that marijuana is a
no no. And this is something that a lot of
people struggle with. Just because certain states legalized marijuana doesn't
mean you can't get fired. I mean it's yeah, it's
(38:20):
it's still considered federally an illicit substance and under the influence,
and so people are so shocked. They're like, but it's
marijuana is legal where I live. Well, just like alcohol,
if somebody wanted to know if you drink alcohol and and.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
Test you, you know, or you can't have alcohol on
the job, and and I know there's a.
Speaker 4 (38:42):
Big difference between on the job and it being in
your system, but marijuana is a little different because it
could be in your system for a long period of time.
So you know, they you I I really want to
help people who want to work.
Speaker 2 (38:59):
Okay, I don't want people.
Speaker 4 (39:00):
Working high, but I definitely want to assist people in
getting their job back.
Speaker 2 (39:05):
So I'm not telling you how to pass a drug test.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
But there's a few things you need to do first
and foremost is get documentation from a medical provider.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
If you are taking marijuana.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
Or doing gummies or whatever because of a medical condition,
then get documentation of that medical condition. What we are
seeing is that the ADA, the Americans with Disabilities Act,
allow shall we say, modifications and accommodations, I should say
accommodations depending on your medical condition.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
So let's say you have insombia and you.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
Are at risk of being addicted to sleeping pills, and
you know, notify your doctor saying look for sleep. This
is what I'm using, you know, but I would like
your recommendation or you know, is that safer than other
sleeping aids. Now, most doctors are not going to say
marijuana is SI for you know that They would tell you,
(40:02):
you know, let's work on sleep, Let's.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Get you into some therapy, let's check you for sleep apnea.
Speaker 4 (40:07):
But you having a doctor's node and showing that you
were in the process of talking to that you know,
medical provider and you're you're treating an issue.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
Could provide you some protection.
Speaker 6 (40:24):
You know.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
I obviously don't use the drug.
Speaker 4 (40:27):
I mean that the the the drug tests are going
to be coming back and I think we're going to
be seeing them more and more.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Why because of liability? And I told you this.
Speaker 4 (40:36):
I told you that, you know, legalizing marijuana, which is
something I voted for in my neck of the woods
because I wanted police freed up, you know, from not
having to you know, they could deal with the.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
More you know, serious crimes. I wanted us to be
able to study it.
Speaker 4 (40:50):
So we had another alternative, you know, for people in
chronic pain, because I think I thought they were going
to you know, ridiculously restrict access to pain medicines by
blaming doctors for the Fendel crisis, you know, and then uh,
you know, just to to learn about it and and
and to to see what medicine applications are there. Well,
(41:12):
you know, one side effect of that is, oh, fewer
people want to go to work.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
You're like, oh, I remember being late for work. How
you would panic that you would be laid for work
because you could lose your job.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
Now, we just don't seem to have people panic too
much about losing their job these days.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
Like, uh, ain no thing but a chicken wing. I'm good.
Speaker 4 (41:32):
And so many employers are a little frustrated because they're,
you know, some of their employees aren't coming back to work,
so they want to know, is this a marijuana user,
you know, who might be more prone to calling out
or sleeping in. I understand ted that movie seemed to
really be over stereotype. Uh, you know, most people who
use marijuana casually are going to make it to their job,
(41:55):
but that's a way for them to screen and see
if it's going to be somebody who calls out.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
And then another thing is liability.
Speaker 4 (42:03):
So even though marijuana is legal, they do not want
doctors and nurses using marijuana and having it in the
system because if anything does go wrong, you know, and
you fail a drug test, that's on them. So many
industries will not allow you to use and and it
it's it's a question that keeps coming up. You know,
(42:25):
does my surgeon use pot? And is anybody checking them?
And how do we know it's not at a level
that could be affecting their reaction time? And so most hospitals,
especially for privileges, they're just like, you know, no drugs.
I don't care how legal it is now. Do doctors
drink alcohol on occasion? Of course, do doctors use drugs.
(42:47):
I'm sure there's a lot of doctors that do use marijuana,
but they they're you know, they're based on where you work,
not supposed to and and you know, it's it's so
ambiquitous now that we you know, we we take it
for granted, but hearing people panic because they're going to
(43:09):
be possibly failing their drug test. My advice is one,
try not to use it to get at least a
doctor's note you know that can you'll provide you some
sort of protection. And then if you are using it
for a medical condition, you know, start getting a paper
trail on that you know, and find something better and safer,
because most likely you're not going to be able to
(43:30):
even if you do get the job, continue to use
the drug seven Doctor Dolly. Hey guys, it's doctor Dahalia.
