He wants to go on Theo Vaughn's podcast with Bobby Lee because they are funny.
Old Nick would've been interesting on Theo Von.
New Nick wouldn't be able to keep up,
Theo's interviewing and comedy style is really irreverent and absurdist. His guests need to be good at reading social cues and quick on their feet to keep up with Theo's mercurial stream of consciousness,
He's had some big guests on lately in Tucker Carlson and Wayne Gretzky.
I'd say Nick has no chance, but Theo is unpredictable and has interviewed random off-the-street garbagemen as well.
Curious what effects thiamine would have on someone with W-K? Would it cure the condition, prevent the issues prophylactically, or would they have to decrease alcohol intake?
Three to five days of Thiamine used to be given to new hospital admits suspected of alcoholism even if they wouldn't admit to it.
It's essentially cheap and harmless vitamins. Supposedly preventative. Really hard to judge if it actually makes a difference though.
Some real crazy cope from Nick. Stop tracking his superchats because Nick's master plan all along was to have less of them. And he wants less superchats because he loves the little guy out there working hard.
Nick is out there taking money from big corporations like locals and rumble to help the truck drivers out there driving on long nights. He doesn't want money from people. He wants money from corporations because its all about YOUR kids.
Nick DOESNT need your money. None of you can possibly understand Nick's business because you can't.
To noseguard a little, Nick did mention several times a year ago post-YT ban and around the time of the Rumble deal that he had a desire to stop taking money from fans re: Superchats and instead take money from corporations.
It was probably disingenuous then and is REALLY disingenuous now. But if you squint you can see at the time in the early stages of his decline that he might've been at least a little sincere. Hoping that he could get paid a salary from Big Tech instead of doing the organ grinder routine nightly begging for gibs.
Of course, the problem with that as well is that this timeline also coincides with the start of the 5k Locals gift campaign.
Is it one where you're just sitting down and you'd be moving one of your leg up and down on the tiptoe? You need medication for that?? Shit I thought everyone has that just cause everyone is sedentary these days and your body wants to move.
Restless leg syndrome is a condition where patients complain of a subjective perception of discomfort/uneasiness in their legs when not moving, particularly when in bed before going to sleep.
The discomfort is classically relieved with motion of the limbs.
It's not a well understood condition, demonstrated by the fact that its treatment involves a bunch of random, unrelated drugs and there's no diagnostic tests.
It’s a controversial diagnosis (doctors say it isn’t real, probably because it’s so over diagnosed) and the people that really seem legit are experiencing borderline agony. People claiming that is a real red flag. If you go to a doctor to complain about a bunch of shit it’s very easy to leave with some prescriptions, they take you on your word and are pressured to prescribe so patients feel validated.
I've never really heard doubt re: the validity of RLS IRL similar to other more sketchy conditions, but I'd be willing to consider the possibility.
The drugs to treat RLS aren't really the ones drug seekers want though.
I've mostly seen it treated with Parkinson's drugs like pramipexole. Which is a Dopamine Agonist that has been reported to cause problems with impulse control with patients starting to gamble recklessly, etc. But AFAIK, isn't a drug of abuse.
