Speaker 1 (00:00):
I, Uh, I just made a mistake of googling something.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
I had this tiny little bump.

Speaker 1 (00:04):
On my Oh no, my lip, which has been there
for a while.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
No, I see.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
Now this is why I didn't want to say anything,
because it's not that we're all clear.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
There don't google stuff.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
But I googled it and it's like either very common
or it's melanomen. I'm dead and I actually died, and
so my doctor Sonya and my dermatologist. I said, hey,
can I ask you a skin question because I just
googled it and now I'm stupid And I said, am
I dead? And she said unlikely, it's very normal, okay,

(00:39):
And then she wants me to send her a picture.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Oh yeah, I have to do that to the germ.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
You know what amazed me is I briefly dated au
Obgyn and she said her friends would send her pictures
and you can only imagine what those must have looked like.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Oh yeah, and she's like, oh, yes, it's normal.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
I'm like, what, like if I'm just chilling on a Saturday,
you know, watching the Netflix or whatever, and then I
get a picture like whoa, Oh yeah, that's just so
and so and so and so and then you just what.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
I'd rather FaceTime, and I realized, you guys.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Know my thing about I'm afraid of doctors in the hospitals,
and I'm grossed out by my own self. You know this,
And I realized that doctors listening when we don't care.
I don't care. It is just simply what it is.
We've been looking at this stuff forever. It's only but me.
On the other hand, I'm like, I'm the grossest person
ever and this is obviously.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Stars and I'm dead and.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
I sup, yes, and it's just one and just son't
even start.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's not because I even said to her.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
I even said to her, we're all set on on
one note, so it's not that, but like, what the
hell is? And she's like, it's not that because also
wouldn't have been here. Why not even bring it up?
The point is, I googled my own problem and it
made me so paranoid during the commercial break that I
had to I had to text my doctor friend for

(02:04):
her to tell me that I'm not dead.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
They want us to be off of Google doctors.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
They literally say, do not google stuff because then you're
gonna spiral.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Oh her head a sign in her office and said,
don't confuse your Google search with my doctoral degree. That's what. Yeah,
that is standing on what it should say.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Yeah, a lot of it's from TikTok. It's okay, right, come,
come on the University of TikTok A man, and y'all
can stay out of the comments. Y'all can stay off
the text because doctor whomever you know on the text line, No,
I don't have some sort of.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
Social disease. What did your dermatologist say? She's like, I
don't treat that kind of stuff or something.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Little?

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Trust me.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
I googled that too, just to see what it is
we do. According to Kiki, everyone's got a little herfect.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Four people do that. Yeah, you're not wrong. Yeah, I'm
not shaming it. That's just not what it is. Trust me.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
I've been to the doctor about thirty seven times for
benign diagnoses of many things I thought I had contracted
because I'm a hypochondriac and I'm a crazy person. So
I feel like I'm I almost have a medical degree
at this point on certain topics because I've just convinced
myself that there's stuff that's wrong with me because I

(03:29):
googled it first. That's the problem. The problem is I
google stuff and then it's like, oh you oh that,
Oh you're dead, you died already, you're dead, say goodbye
and uh.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
And then it turns out that it's like nothing.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
You're going to be on that commercial with the little
people running so happy that they got a disease. You
can here, you can row a boat now thanks to
whatever medicine.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
There's always a dog.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Take me now, giky take yeah, go ahead, Oh no,
oh yeah, we never get a date again now thanks
to this segment. The whole point was don't google anything
because it'll tell you it's worse than it is, or
don't tell your friends who aren't doctors, because they'll tell
you that it's worse that you guys are sitting.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Here telling me, oh you got this thing another thing. Nope,
I don't. Everybody got it, okay, thank you. Also misinformation
