Speaker 1 (00:00):
And there's a strike going on. I always side with
the nurses alway. Yeah, this is why, this is why
hospitals hate Nurse Blake. They do not like me. Nurse
Blake is here. Hi, Hi, thanks so much for having me.
Welcome back. We've got lots to cover. Okay, I know, okay, okay,
we have a minute. Yeah, we have a long list
of things to cover. So how are you. I'm really
(00:21):
really good, I'm much wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well, listen, So I did go for thirty days to
a little wellness retreat with no phone, no work, and
it was the best thing ever.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
So you gave up drinking and I did. Yeah, so
you get sober? Sober?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (00:35):
I did so when I saw wellness a treat, I
mean rehab, you know what I mean? You know what
I mean.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Yeah, it was so funny because the nurses there recognize me.
And I think the hardest part about being in there
is I had to wait for medicine, like in a medline, right,
but all I really take is a fiber gummy, So
I would have to wait thirty minutes for me for
my fibers.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Hey, So okay, I've all I've always thought about before
the end of my life, which look at my age,
it's gonna happen soon. I would love to go away
for a wellness retreat in air quotes air quotes because
I have a list of things I need to be
working on. Do it. It was honestly that I would
go back.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I would go there when you came out. Now, how
is are things different? Like with your phone and your
relationship with your social media.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
And all that.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
I just I'm not on it all the time anymore.
Like even my family recognizes like, oh my god, he's
not on his phone, Like it's great. Yeah, So it
was really bad just being on my phone all the time.
And when it came to drinking, I wasn't like excessively drinking,
but after a show, especially doing comedy and have it
jack and coke every night.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, And I was like, you know, it's not Yeah.
Our relationship with alcohol is very tricky. Look, and I
come from a family of alcoholics, and I drink on
occasion on festifications and I haven't really made a big
deal about it here, but I have not been drinking
like I used to drink. I just low it down, I'm.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Telling you, Especially like the gen Z generation, they're really
not drinking alcohol. It's all about mocktails and anything.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yeah, and lots of drug.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Mocktails are so expensive. I got one last night here
in New York. I was like fifteen dollars. I'm like,
there's not alcohol here. I had a shot of vodka.
I think goes down in price. It's weird. I don't understand.
It's like jeans. Jeans with holes in them cost more.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I don't get it. I don't get it. So let's
talk about Nurse Blake. Nurse Nurse Blake was on us,
on with us, not that long ago. It seemed like
way too long ago. I know, it's like last year.
It was. It was before we have Okay, before my
wellness or I love that. To talk about that. Yeah,
like I need some names and numbers. Okay, I got you.
But I will say that nurses have been such an
(02:47):
important part of our lives, even well. They were a
very important part of medical the medical field before we
were born, and they'll be after we're dead. But we
definitely learned our lesson during pandemic because we had some
nurses listening to us and counting on us every day
as they rolled in to the most difficult hours of
their lives and days and months of their lives right
(03:09):
and through that, through that relationship with our nurses that listen.
When we found out about you going out there and
pumping nurses up, making them feel good, making them laugh,
we had to have you on. Let's talk about what
you're still doing as like the leader of the nurse parade,
because you really are not the leader.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
But you know, I've been a nurse, I've worked those
hard shifts and actually, going back to the wellness retreat,
I went to the first three or four people I
met there were all nurses that were also there. It's
such a hard job, right, and so many nurses out
there don't take care of themselves. So if you're a
nurse and you're listening and you've had a hard shift
and you're going through a really hard time, my heart
(03:48):
is with you know, you got this. And we care
so much for other people, we forget to care for ourselves,
So don't forget to care for yourself. But yeah, I mean,
I support nurses in many ways. A lot of nurses
are striking around the tree. So whenever there's a strike,
I love to go out and support nurses because these
hospitals y'all. They just care about profit like they do
not care about the patient at the end of the day.
(04:09):
So whenever nurses go on strike, I hate to see
it happen. But I love when the nurses come together
and say, hey, like, we're not gonna clock in or
work unless you treat us fairly and we have the
resources to care for, you know, patients. It's so funny
because I went to the Olive Garden the other day
and there were there. I love a breadstick.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
I love a.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Bread stick, and that's salad.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
That's never a salad in.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
The alfredo dip.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
I mean, it's so worth the stomach.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
There's so many times are going God take them all there.
So you went to Olive Garden and what happened?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Five people working the host station, five people working the hosting.
But if you go into a hospital you have thirty
sick patients. Yeah, you got one or two nurses. It's
like what I wish hospitals were staffed like the Olive Garden.
That's what I'm trying to say. I'm like, y'all got
(05:06):
good staffing here.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Oh okay, hospitals should take note. It's taken out roll
down to the local olive gardens serve breadsticks as well.
Thank you. Well, you know, look, I do know. I'm
not I'm not going to go by name, but I
do know of a hospital corporation that is actually kicking
themselves and moving in the right direction. And so there
(05:29):
are some that are trying. They are there.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Nurses have been so loud and so vocal and protesting
and numbers we haven't seen historically, which is so inspiring
to see the hospitals are starting to listen. And actually
doctors are also unionizing too and striking with the nurses
and we've seen that in Oregon State and it's making
a big difference. So it's so cool to have the
doctors also supporting us.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
So back to Nurse Blake and what he does. I
love the fact that you do a nurse conent. See
you started this how many years ago? Yeah? Five years,
four years ago?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Yeah, our first one happened in twenty twenty two. So
we're coming up on our fifth sailing.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Okay, sure. So described to everyone who's listening who may
not have heard of Nurse Gone, what it's all about
and what you do when you're on board with these
these nurses.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
So it's nurse kind of see, we take over a
whole cruise ship about thirty five hundred nurses, four nights,
five days.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
We do continuing education and theme nights and parties.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
We have drag shows and drag bingo and it is
honestly the best time ever. I mean, anytime you're in
a room with like over three thousand nurses, it's gonna
get wild and.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
People some people are like ill, cruises like ill.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I'm like, our cruise is the safest cruise ever because
it's all nurses.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Like you know, if we are ever.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
The cruise that gets the diarrhea, I will be so mad.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Oh my god, I will be so mad. I'm going
to be with people that know how to keep their
hands right.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I know, we wash our hands, we wash our hands.
Especially in the hospital. You're supposed to foe in and
out after every shift at the end of twelve hours,
foaming in and out hundreds of times.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Your hints are like bleeding. I think we need that
role here. We should foam out, foone it out, foam
out every day. Yeah. So being a nurse, you see
things that you I don't know that we don't see.
So being on a ship with thirty five hundred nurses.
What is something that's going on in that ship other
than foaming in and foaming out every five minutes? But
we don't. We we totally would take for granted. I mean, oh,
(07:24):
you know, you take for granted. It's like nurses together.
They're all doing something that we don't do.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah, I mean, I think it's a lot of camaraderie.
I think, right when you get on the ship, you
feel like you're at home, like you're just connected to
a community. And especially when I do my comedy shows
and tours, like and there's a thousand nurses in a room,
I feel like we all know each other.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
So it's like a big.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Family reunion even though we haven't met each other, right,
And it's so cool, is I think the age difference.
We'll have nurses that are twenty years old dancing and partying.
Nextit nurses who are retired in eighty, you know, And
that's that's so cool to me.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
That's so special. So had pandemic not happened as it did,
I wish it didn't know, we all wish it did.
But I don't would you be doing what you're doing?
I mean, there was such a call for what you
went ahead and did for nurses. Yeah, I think nurses
needed at the most. I think nurses still need it,
and I think coming out of the pandemic, I think
nurses really learn their value and the struggles that that
(08:18):
that healthcare has. So yeah, I don't think we would
have been able to do it without nurses really needing support.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Are still nursing actively.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
So I'm still licensed. So if you go down right now,
I do CPR on you.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
But well, let me get stated. If I go down
right now, you'll do CPR on me. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Sure, So I don't take insurance, so it's just cash
pay only.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
What nurses do all the time. I feel correct me
if I'm wrong.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Please.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I feel like you guys are always looking at people's veins.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
That's a good vein to tap. That's a vein, you know.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
I say, if you're a straight guy out there, straight
in eight, when you're that'able letter, once you guys stop
calling him straight Nate, then maybe I'll have hope, you know,
then that would be a good day. Much understand that
the straight guys out there, if you're looking to catch
a nurse on your tender profile, don't post a picture
(09:16):
of you holding up a fish. Just show us a
picture of your vein, because that's really all we want.
A thick, big bulging vein is going to get me going.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
That's it. Nate Balton, Just in time, bas get a lesson.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
A medical community just stays looking at your veins.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Oh we do you just stare. We got a back
up in a second. Godi asked a question, are you
still nursing? You say you're still licensed. Have you thought
about maybe? I mean, you're busy, You've got it. You've
got another tour coming up, which no one knows about yet,
but we've got to talk about that. You have nurse
gone coming up. So finding time to hop back on
a schedule is just not in your cards right now.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I mean, I went to nursing school eleven years ago
to care for patients, right to learn how to answer
IV's not like tell jokes or run a nursing conference.
It's not that I can't, it's that hospitals won't hire me,
like I'm so outspoken and vocal and what I do like,
that's they pushed me out of the hospital system. And
that's when I kind of got into comedy. Well that'll
be Gandhi's death. Here people started recognizing me and the
(10:16):
hospitals are like, are you making videos about us? And
I'm like, yeah, I am, like I am so They're
like you like HR's.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I will never get past the hr all.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Right.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Well, you know, if a hospital was smart, the smartest
hospital will hire you. Please, thank you? So out on tour,
yeah yeah, I mean you've got a room for thousands
of nurses. What happens if there's an incident, like a
medical incident at a concert.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I've done over three hundred shows, there's always like a
few thousand nurses there. We've never had a medical incident
until a few months ago. We were in a Lake Tahoe,
so we're at a little elevation, and I've always thought
thousand nurses, if anything happens, gonna be good, right, And
she just got a little from the out to you
you got so she went down, you know during my show,
(11:04):
and I heard some commotion in the back and then
right when all the nurses knew something was happening, a
thousand tipsy nurses with their white claws in high noon
all try to play hero. And it was the most
I had to get down off stage into the crowd
to clear the area.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Every who I get she was spine. She was great.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
She actually hung out at the merch booth after. But
it was it was so interesting to see so many nurses.
I'll try to be you know, but what they say.
They all want to help.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
They're all drunk.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They're all a little tipsy, they're all a little tipps
a time.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
You'll all get a shot at the patient, all thousand
of you, but one at a time and at a time.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
How often when somebody calls for a medical professional do
you actually raise your hand and say yes me or
do you hide from it?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
That's a great question.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
So I think I especially being a new nurse, it's like, yeah,
like I want to be a hero, Like you better
film me saving a life because I wanted to go
viral on the news, like I want to be a hero.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
But but now you're.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Just like yeah, Like so I always were my earphones
and him on a plane the volume up really high.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Come on, if you're the only one on a plane
that can save someone, you're gonna help, you know, I'm kidding.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
If you can hear it, if.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
I can hear you know, I couldn't hear it. No,
and nurses will understand totally relate to what I'm saying.
But what's so funny is they'll always be like, is
there a doctor on board? And you're just like, well,
they didn't say nurse. So I did have a moment.
I was on Spirit Airlines. Don't judge me. Oh no,
I like the big seats and Spirit. I think they're great.
(12:38):
I think Spirit Airlines is great. And they called for
a medical and I was like, I'm gonna be the hero,
Like I was so excited like this, I've been nurse
ten years. I've never had a medical called on a
plane like I was so ready and the girl was
just a little dizzy from her gummy yeh, I know
(13:00):
you are so disappointed. I was so I was ready
to I know, I was so ready to just do
see pr and like save the life.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
And she's like, you're ready to give a track going?
I was ready. I was, Yeah, I was so ready.
You know. I will say this and I don't want
to get anyone mad, but without nurses, hospitals would fall apart.
Thank you, thank you, And I'm sure I need to
know that there are hospitals out there to understand that
and or they're trying to better understand that. I have
(13:28):
a call from beautiful Omaha, hold on, let's go talk
to Cammy. Is this Cammy? This is Ca Carrie. Sorry

Speaker 1 (14:06):
You, let's talk about Let's sal about Nurse Blake. Though.
Why do nurses love Nurse Blake other than the fact
he's fun he's funny, but he's also relatable, right because
your nurses. He understands something about you that we don't get.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Absolutely, Yeah, Like he he brings perspective and lets other
people understand like what we're going through. We are going
through so much. And the hospitals, yeah, they need to listen.

(15:28):
So you're back on the road doing more shows. I
am I when does it? When does this it's a tour?
When does it start? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
So I just wrapped up one hundred and fifty shows.
Socle all over the world. And then my new tour
hasn't been announced yet, but it will start in August.
So we're doing the cruise in April, and then we're
actually doing our first summer camp for nurses.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
It's called Camp and Nurse con. Where's that going to be.
It's going to be.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
It's only two hours away from here on the acres.
The acres like four hundred acres. We're going to four
hundred and fifty nurses and.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Cabinet upstate New York somewhere. Y'all should come. I'm coming.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
It's gonna be pretty epic. It's gonna be really cool.
So I'm so excited. So nurses, if you want to
come to camp, come with me.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Oh my god, I can't imagine spending the night with
a bunch of nurses. First you never you never see
me again ever?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Are you gonna have make the bracelets?
Speaker 1 (16:15):
But we're gonna do everything. It's on a lake. We're
gonna go tubing and yeah, wait, okay, see when when
nurses say tubes, it's something totally speaking. Now, last time
Nurse Blake was here, he brought a prop. It was
this thing you put in there, you push a button,
stuff oozes out. I'm not cuture what it was? What
is this? What did you bring today?
Speaker 2 (16:33):
So what I brought last time was a pure wic
and so that's something. It's an external catheter device. Yes,
and this is the old school classic fully catheter.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Oh yeah, so Nate crab it in your pee. Hop
you still you may still have it.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
This goes in, Okay, this goes into fully catheter or
what We lub it up and then we end heart
it in. But how does it stay in there?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Right? So staples, No, I don't know if this is
worse or better. But this is air.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
But imagine if this is water what we do because
we fill up the tip with some water.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Yeah, oh my god. Oh so it's a little so
you put that up the peyhole and you blow that
little so it stays in the bladder.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah, it's very thick. And sometimes you guys this, some
patients will pull this out.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, it's just like that. Is it more intense than that?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Because because you blow up the end, right, so it's
like a big bubble at the end, so it doesn't
fall out, and unfortunately you have a patient that will
pull it out.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
But by catheter, you guys, but look, you know, here's
thing about this, and Daniel's like, it's to make for
all you look what came out of your vagina.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I'm kind of talking more about you guys. It's going
up there.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Oh look, you know the body can take more than
you think it can.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
The body can take a lot. That's a good point, Nate.
But yeah, how was it so?
Speaker 1 (18:06):
I think I still have a little dribbling ever since.
Thanks for sharing.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Yeah, you need to get your prostate check, Nate. Okay,
did you bring a glove?
Speaker 1 (18:20):
This thing is so long?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
How far up does it go to your bladder?
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It goes so in the hole all the way up
and you hold come here, stand stand in front of
your point to him on his body where his bladder is.
Oh yeah, it's like your bladder is right here to go.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
So we're going to go up the hole and once
we get pee return, you'reine return. We know it's high enough.
And then we entered in just a little more and
fill up the tip with the watch.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Sounds like you're Juli for oil. You get the oil.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
That's exactly see, you got it, see see, and I
actually we can try it.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
I don't know, I don't know. I don't have lou
but you know we could just Shotty Scottie. Where's Scotty,
Scotty be squere scott to the bathroom. He went to
the bathroom. Wait, he doesn't have to go to the bathroom.
Might have a path. Come here, Scottytty, Come here, Scotty, Scotty, Scotty,
get hit the handle, hit the micro hit the microphones,
(19:18):
hits the hits right here is fine? What what's your problem?
You're patting? You put that in your pee hole? I
heard you guys talking about it, and I had to leave.
I can't. I can't because I'm going to pass out.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
You're going to pass out and you're not blows up.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
I'll tell you what, If you pass out, it'll be
easier to get there. What's the point of that?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
It's so if someone needs hope, you're an eating It's
that goes into your bladder and they blow it up
so it won't come out.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
It won't come out, so it doesn't just fallow. Come on,
just try it once, Scotty show weddings, wedding do it is?
If your job depends on it? Come on? I like
(20:06):
it here, I love it. You think we don't know
about this stuff every day we do. Just spit on
that thing. There's an idea.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Okay, one more question about you.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Ask a thousand questions. What is it.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
Possible that when you pull out a catheter it makes
someone's penis recoil?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Come on, man, can we talk about something else please?
Speaker 4 (20:36):
That's Uncle Johnny said, happened.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
So a lot of times that happens. It's like inverted
and even before we put it in. Sometimes it's like
a little game of hide and seek. I mean it's like, hello,
where are you come out?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Wherever you are? Yeah, it's like a little turtle. So
our uncle Johnny, who God rest his soul, passed away,
very good friends of the show, best friends. He's old
and he's gay, and he wore a tupe. We still
have this two peg. It's kind of weird anyway, he's said.
But with all his trouble medical troubles and with lots
(21:10):
of catheters, his penis retracted inside his body. So in
order to keep it outside the body. You know those
rubber bands that come on broccoli, Uh huh, Yeah, those
thick rubber bands. He would put them on his penis
to keep it outside his body.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
You gotta do what you gotta do. I mean, you
gotta do what you gotta do. What's so funny is
we actually so sometimes if we don't use a fully catheter,
because he's caused a lot of infections, right, we use
on males a condom catheter.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Okay, how does that work?
Speaker 2 (21:42):
So it's a condom, but imagine it being sticky and
you just put it on and the person peas in
the condom and it's got like a tube at the
end of a lot easier, but sometimes because of the nies,
it's very hard and sometimes oh gosh.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
It's stick Yeah, like Nate, you'd have a problem with that.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
It's not the thing you have a problem with that,
you'd have a little problem.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Okay, so let's recap, shall we please? Heading out? Are
you calling this the Shock Advice Comedy Tour as well?
You're renaming your naming it. I don't know if I
can announce No, don't do it. Don't do that yet. No,

(22:32):

Who is my boyfriend?
Speaker 2 (23:41):
So this is a CPR at home training dummy?
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Oh mannequin? Okay, okay, all right. As you put your
mouth on his or her mouth or her mouth, it
wouldn't be her mouth.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
It's like a lady, a female needed help or CPR.
I would do the compressions, but I would have to
pull someone else in for the math.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Why no one wants to hire you?
Speaker 2 (24:14):
You know, it's just it's just my preferences. But you
actually you could practice like to do it. The depth
of a compression has to be two inches, which is
pretty deep.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
They can they could break your It's so like.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Click like that's how hard you have to press to
do it.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Remember I tried it on Nate and he had to
go to the hospital for a compression on my chest
and cracked a rib. I cracked a rib. That's what happens.
That's it. But I saved his life. But did you die?
But we got it in But did you die? But
did you die? No? You did not.

the nurses really really means a lot.

To without doubt. I mean, we know, we know, we

hospitals hate Nurse Blake. They do not like me. Nurse
Blake is here. Hi, Hi, thanks so much for having me.
Welcome back. We've got lots to cover. Okay, I know, okay, okay,
we have a minute. Yeah, we have a long list
of things to cover. So how are you. I'm really
(00:21):
really good, I'm much wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well, listen, So I did go for thirty days to
a little wellness retreat with no phone, no work, and
it was the best thing ever.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
So you gave up drinking and I did. Yeah, so
you get sober? Sober?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (00:35):
I did so when I saw wellness a treat, I
mean rehab, you know what I mean? You know what
I mean.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Yeah, it was so funny because the nurses there recognize me.
And I think the hardest part about being in there
is I had to wait for medicine, like in a medline, right,
but all I really take is a fiber gummy, So
I would have to wait thirty minutes for me for
my fibers.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Hey, So okay, I've all I've always thought about before
the end of my life, which look at my age,
it's gonna happen soon. I would love to go away
for a wellness retreat in air quotes air quotes because
I have a list of things I need to be
working on. Do it. It was honestly that I would
go back.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I would go there when you came out. Now, how
is are things different? Like with your phone and your
relationship with your social media.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
And all that.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
I just I'm not on it all the time anymore.
Like even my family recognizes like, oh my god, he's
not on his phone, Like it's great. Yeah, So it
was really bad just being on my phone all the time.
And when it came to drinking, I wasn't like excessively drinking,
but after a show, especially doing comedy and have it
jack and coke every night.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, And I was like, you know, it's not Yeah.
Our relationship with alcohol is very tricky. Look, and I
come from a family of alcoholics, and I drink on
occasion on festifications and I haven't really made a big
deal about it here, but I have not been drinking
like I used to drink. I just low it down, I'm.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Telling you, Especially like the gen Z generation, they're really
not drinking alcohol. It's all about mocktails and anything.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yeah, and lots of drug.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Mocktails are so expensive. I got one last night here
in New York. I was like fifteen dollars. I'm like,
there's not alcohol here. I had a shot of vodka.
I think goes down in price. It's weird. I don't understand.
It's like jeans. Jeans with holes in them cost more.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I don't get it. I don't get it. So let's
talk about Nurse Blake. Nurse Nurse Blake was on us,
on with us, not that long ago. It seemed like
way too long ago. I know, it's like last year.
It was. It was before we have Okay, before my
wellness or I love that. To talk about that. Yeah,
like I need some names and numbers. Okay, I got you.
But I will say that nurses have been such an
(02:47):
important part of our lives, even well. They were a
very important part of medical the medical field before we
were born, and they'll be after we're dead. But we
definitely learned our lesson during pandemic because we had some
nurses listening to us and counting on us every day
as they rolled in to the most difficult hours of
their lives and days and months of their lives right
(03:09):
and through that, through that relationship with our nurses that listen.
When we found out about you going out there and
pumping nurses up, making them feel good, making them laugh,
we had to have you on. Let's talk about what
you're still doing as like the leader of the nurse parade,
because you really are not the leader.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
But you know, I've been a nurse, I've worked those
hard shifts and actually, going back to the wellness retreat,
I went to the first three or four people I
met there were all nurses that were also there. It's
such a hard job, right, and so many nurses out
there don't take care of themselves. So if you're a
nurse and you're listening and you've had a hard shift
and you're going through a really hard time, my heart
(03:48):
is with you know, you got this. And we care
so much for other people, we forget to care for ourselves,
So don't forget to care for yourself. But yeah, I mean,
I support nurses in many ways. A lot of nurses
are striking around the tree. So whenever there's a strike,
I love to go out and support nurses because these
hospitals y'all. They just care about profit like they do
not care about the patient at the end of the day.
(04:09):
So whenever nurses go on strike, I hate to see
it happen. But I love when the nurses come together
and say, hey, like, we're not gonna clock in or
work unless you treat us fairly and we have the
resources to care for, you know, patients. It's so funny
because I went to the Olive Garden the other day
and there were there. I love a breadstick.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
I love a.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Bread stick, and that's salad.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
That's never a salad in.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
The alfredo dip.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
I mean, it's so worth the stomach.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
There's so many times are going God take them all there.
So you went to Olive Garden and what happened?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Five people working the host station, five people working the hosting.
But if you go into a hospital you have thirty
sick patients. Yeah, you got one or two nurses. It's
like what I wish hospitals were staffed like the Olive Garden.
That's what I'm trying to say. I'm like, y'all got
(05:06):
good staffing here.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Oh okay, hospitals should take note. It's taken out roll
down to the local olive gardens serve breadsticks as well.
Thank you. Well, you know, look, I do know. I'm
not I'm not going to go by name, but I
do know of a hospital corporation that is actually kicking
themselves and moving in the right direction. And so there
(05:29):
are some that are trying. They are there.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Nurses have been so loud and so vocal and protesting
and numbers we haven't seen historically, which is so inspiring
to see the hospitals are starting to listen. And actually
doctors are also unionizing too and striking with the nurses
and we've seen that in Oregon State and it's making
a big difference. So it's so cool to have the
doctors also supporting us.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
So back to Nurse Blake and what he does. I
love the fact that you do a nurse conent. See
you started this how many years ago? Yeah? Five years,
four years ago?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Yeah, our first one happened in twenty twenty two. So
we're coming up on our fifth sailing.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Okay, sure. So described to everyone who's listening who may
not have heard of Nurse Gone, what it's all about
and what you do when you're on board with these
these nurses.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
So it's nurse kind of see, we take over a
whole cruise ship about thirty five hundred nurses, four nights,
five days.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
We do continuing education and theme nights and parties.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
We have drag shows and drag bingo and it is
honestly the best time ever. I mean, anytime you're in
a room with like over three thousand nurses, it's gonna
get wild and.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
People some people are like ill, cruises like ill.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I'm like, our cruise is the safest cruise ever because
it's all nurses.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Like you know, if we are ever.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
The cruise that gets the diarrhea, I will be so mad.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Oh my god, I will be so mad. I'm going
to be with people that know how to keep their
hands right.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I know, we wash our hands, we wash our hands.
Especially in the hospital. You're supposed to foe in and
out after every shift at the end of twelve hours,
foaming in and out hundreds of times.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Your hints are like bleeding. I think we need that
role here. We should foam out, foone it out, foam
out every day. Yeah. So being a nurse, you see
things that you I don't know that we don't see.
So being on a ship with thirty five hundred nurses.
What is something that's going on in that ship other
than foaming in and foaming out every five minutes? But
we don't. We we totally would take for granted. I mean, oh,
(07:24):
you know, you take for granted. It's like nurses together.
They're all doing something that we don't do.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah, I mean, I think it's a lot of camaraderie.
I think, right when you get on the ship, you
feel like you're at home, like you're just connected to
a community. And especially when I do my comedy shows
and tours, like and there's a thousand nurses in a room,
I feel like we all know each other.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
So it's like a big.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Family reunion even though we haven't met each other, right,
And it's so cool, is I think the age difference.
We'll have nurses that are twenty years old dancing and partying.
Nextit nurses who are retired in eighty, you know, And
that's that's so cool to me.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
That's so special. So had pandemic not happened as it did,
I wish it didn't know, we all wish it did.
But I don't would you be doing what you're doing?
I mean, there was such a call for what you
went ahead and did for nurses. Yeah, I think nurses
needed at the most. I think nurses still need it,
and I think coming out of the pandemic, I think
nurses really learn their value and the struggles that that
(08:18):
that healthcare has. So yeah, I don't think we would
have been able to do it without nurses really needing support.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Are still nursing actively.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
So I'm still licensed. So if you go down right now,
I do CPR on you.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
But well, let me get stated. If I go down
right now, you'll do CPR on me. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Sure, So I don't take insurance, so it's just cash
pay only.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
What nurses do all the time. I feel correct me
if I'm wrong.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Please.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I feel like you guys are always looking at people's veins.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
That's a good vein to tap. That's a vein, you know.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
I say, if you're a straight guy out there, straight
in eight, when you're that'able letter, once you guys stop
calling him straight Nate, then maybe I'll have hope, you know,
then that would be a good day. Much understand that
the straight guys out there, if you're looking to catch
a nurse on your tender profile, don't post a picture
(09:16):
of you holding up a fish. Just show us a
picture of your vein, because that's really all we want.
A thick, big bulging vein is going to get me going.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
That's it. Nate Balton, Just in time, bas get a lesson.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
A medical community just stays looking at your veins.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Oh we do you just stare. We got a back
up in a second. Godi asked a question, are you
still nursing? You say you're still licensed. Have you thought
about maybe? I mean, you're busy, You've got it. You've
got another tour coming up, which no one knows about yet,
but we've got to talk about that. You have nurse
gone coming up. So finding time to hop back on
a schedule is just not in your cards right now.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I mean, I went to nursing school eleven years ago
to care for patients, right to learn how to answer
IV's not like tell jokes or run a nursing conference.
It's not that I can't, it's that hospitals won't hire me,
like I'm so outspoken and vocal and what I do like,
that's they pushed me out of the hospital system. And
that's when I kind of got into comedy. Well that'll
be Gandhi's death. Here people started recognizing me and the
(10:16):
hospitals are like, are you making videos about us? And
I'm like, yeah, I am, like I am so They're
like you like HR's.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I will never get past the hr all.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Right.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Well, you know, if a hospital was smart, the smartest
hospital will hire you. Please, thank you? So out on tour,
yeah yeah, I mean you've got a room for thousands
of nurses. What happens if there's an incident, like a
medical incident at a concert.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I've done over three hundred shows, there's always like a
few thousand nurses there. We've never had a medical incident
until a few months ago. We were in a Lake Tahoe,
so we're at a little elevation, and I've always thought
thousand nurses, if anything happens, gonna be good, right, And
she just got a little from the out to you
you got so she went down, you know during my show,
(11:04):
and I heard some commotion in the back and then
right when all the nurses knew something was happening, a
thousand tipsy nurses with their white claws in high noon
all try to play hero. And it was the most
I had to get down off stage into the crowd
to clear the area.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Every who I get she was spine. She was great.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
She actually hung out at the merch booth after. But
it was it was so interesting to see so many nurses.
I'll try to be you know, but what they say.
They all want to help.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
They're all drunk.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They're all a little tipsy, they're all a little tipps
a time.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
You'll all get a shot at the patient, all thousand
of you, but one at a time and at a time.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
How often when somebody calls for a medical professional do
you actually raise your hand and say yes me or
do you hide from it?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
That's a great question.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
So I think I especially being a new nurse, it's like, yeah,
like I want to be a hero, Like you better
film me saving a life because I wanted to go
viral on the news, like I want to be a hero.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
But but now you're.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Just like yeah, Like so I always were my earphones
and him on a plane the volume up really high.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Come on, if you're the only one on a plane
that can save someone, you're gonna help, you know, I'm kidding.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
If you can hear it, if.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
I can hear you know, I couldn't hear it. No,
and nurses will understand totally relate to what I'm saying.
But what's so funny is they'll always be like, is
there a doctor on board? And you're just like, well,
they didn't say nurse. So I did have a moment.
I was on Spirit Airlines. Don't judge me. Oh no,
I like the big seats and Spirit. I think they're great.
(12:38):
I think Spirit Airlines is great. And they called for
a medical and I was like, I'm gonna be the hero,
Like I was so excited like this, I've been nurse
ten years. I've never had a medical called on a
plane like I was so ready and the girl was
just a little dizzy from her gummy yeh, I know
(13:00):
you are so disappointed. I was so I was ready
to I know, I was so ready to just do
see pr and like save the life.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
And she's like, you're ready to give a track going?
I was ready. I was, Yeah, I was so ready.
You know. I will say this and I don't want
to get anyone mad, but without nurses, hospitals would fall apart.
Thank you, thank you, And I'm sure I need to
know that there are hospitals out there to understand that
and or they're trying to better understand that. I have
(13:28):
a call from beautiful Omaha, hold on, let's go talk
to Cammy. Is this Cammy? This is Ca Carrie. Sorry

what We lub it up and then we end heart
it in. But how does it stay in there?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Right? So staples, No, I don't know if this is
worse or better. But this is air.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
But imagine if this is water what we do because
we fill up the tip with some water.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Yeah, oh my god. Oh so it's a little so
you put that up the peyhole and you blow that
little so it stays in the bladder.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah, it's very thick. And sometimes you guys this, some
patients will pull this out.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, it's just like that. Is it more intense than that?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Because because you blow up the end, right, so it's
like a big bubble at the end, so it doesn't
fall out, and unfortunately you have a patient that will
pull it out.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
But by catheter, you guys, but look, you know, here's
thing about this, and Daniel's like, it's to make for
all you look what came out of your vagina.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I'm kind of talking more about you guys. It's going
up there.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Oh look, you know the body can take more than
you think it can.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
The body can take a lot. That's a good point, Nate.
But yeah, how was it so?
Speaker 1 (18:06):
I think I still have a little dribbling ever since.
Thanks for sharing.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Yeah, you need to get your prostate check, Nate. Okay,
did you bring a glove?
Speaker 1 (18:20):
This thing is so long?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
How far up does it go to your bladder?
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It goes so in the hole all the way up
and you hold come here, stand stand in front of
your point to him on his body where his bladder is.
Oh yeah, it's like your bladder is right here to go.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
So we're going to go up the hole and once
we get pee return, you'reine return. We know it's high enough.
And then we entered in just a little more and
fill up the tip with the watch.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Sounds like you're Juli for oil. You get the oil.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
That's exactly see, you got it, see see, and I
actually we can try it.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
I don't know, I don't know. I don't have lou
but you know we could just Shotty Scottie. Where's Scotty,
Scotty be squere scott to the bathroom. He went to
the bathroom. Wait, he doesn't have to go to the bathroom.
Might have a path. Come here, Scottytty, Come here, Scotty, Scotty, Scotty,
get hit the handle, hit the micro hit the microphones,
(19:18):
hits the hits right here is fine? What what's your problem?
You're patting? You put that in your pee hole? I
heard you guys talking about it, and I had to leave.
I can't. I can't because I'm going to pass out.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
You're going to pass out and you're not blows up.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
I'll tell you what, If you pass out, it'll be
easier to get there. What's the point of that?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
It's so if someone needs hope, you're an eating It's
that goes into your bladder and they blow it up
so it won't come out.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
It won't come out, so it doesn't just fallow. Come on,
just try it once, Scotty show weddings, wedding do it is?
If your job depends on it? Come on? I like
(20:06):
it here, I love it. You think we don't know
about this stuff every day we do. Just spit on
that thing. There's an idea.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Okay, one more question about you.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Ask a thousand questions. What is it.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
Possible that when you pull out a catheter it makes
someone's penis recoil?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Come on, man, can we talk about something else please?
Speaker 4 (20:36):
That's Uncle Johnny said, happened.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
So a lot of times that happens. It's like inverted
and even before we put it in. Sometimes it's like
a little game of hide and seek. I mean it's like, hello,
where are you come out?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Wherever you are? Yeah, it's like a little turtle. So
our uncle Johnny, who God rest his soul, passed away,
very good friends of the show, best friends. He's old
and he's gay, and he wore a tupe. We still
have this two peg. It's kind of weird anyway, he's said.
But with all his trouble medical troubles and with lots
(21:10):
of catheters, his penis retracted inside his body. So in
order to keep it outside the body. You know those
rubber bands that come on broccoli, Uh huh, Yeah, those
thick rubber bands. He would put them on his penis
to keep it outside his body.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
You gotta do what you gotta do. I mean, you
gotta do what you gotta do. What's so funny is
we actually so sometimes if we don't use a fully catheter,
because he's caused a lot of infections, right, we use
on males a condom catheter.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Okay, how does that work?
Speaker 2 (21:42):
So it's a condom, but imagine it being sticky and
you just put it on and the person peas in
the condom and it's got like a tube at the
end of a lot easier, but sometimes because of the nies,
it's very hard and sometimes oh gosh.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
It's stick Yeah, like Nate, you'd have a problem with that.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
It's not the thing you have a problem with that,
you'd have a little problem.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Okay, so let's recap, shall we please? Heading out? Are
you calling this the Shock Advice Comedy Tour as well?
You're renaming your naming it. I don't know if I
can announce No, don't do it. Don't do that yet. No,
when it's time, it's time, when it's right you want
me to do it. But I'm so excited about it. Okay,
it's going to be called the Did You Die? Oh

(22:32):

So this is a CPR at home training dummy?
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Oh mannequin? Okay, okay, all right. As you put your
mouth on his or her mouth or her mouth, it
wouldn't be her mouth.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
It's like a lady, a female needed help or CPR.
I would do the compressions, but I would have to
pull someone else in for the math.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Why no one wants to hire you?
Speaker 2 (24:14):
You know, it's just it's just my preferences. But you
actually you could practice like to do it. The depth
of a compression has to be two inches, which is
pretty deep.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
They can they could break your It's so like.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Click like that's how hard you have to press to
do it.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Remember I tried it on Nate and he had to
go to the hospital for a compression on my chest
and cracked a rib. I cracked a rib. That's what happens.
That's it. But I saved his life. But did you die?
