the top one percent with the user interface for controlling brains. No problem. Just let that issue go. Amazon has announced that its Prime members are going to have some kind of amazing deal on generics. So for five dollars a month for generics. So it's going to be like super cheap generics through Amazon and it's most of the big stuff. And I got all excited about this. I thought, wow, oh this c…
← Previous segment →check on. So you all know Robert F. Kennedy Jr., right? Everybody knows Robert F. Kennedy. Very active in the vaccination conversations both prior to COVID and throughout. And he tweeted at me today. I didn't realize he follows me on Twitter but he tweeted at me today and he was telling me that at Children's HD and hashtag The Defender — I don't know what they are, they must be Twitter entities — has a more robust and rigorous fact-checking operation than any legacy news provider.
Remember I was telling you that what we need is some kind of independent fact checker for medical recommendations. You know, somebody who can say well that used to be a good pill but you know there's a new study that says you shouldn't take it. You know that sort of thing. So a consumer can get a medical recommendation then just check it against somebody who's good at research. Not necessarily a doctor, just somebody who's good at research. And so anyway that's who Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recommends. The Children's HD, I don't know what that is, and hashtag The Defender.
But then he goes on. He says let me know if we ever err. Oh he must be involved with this. So he goes, let me know if we ever err. So I guess he has some involvement in those entities or one of them. And we will apologize and correct. And then here's the part that just totally threw me. This is his last sentence of the tweet. He says, he's tweeting to me, he says thanks Scott for inspiring me to get surgery for my spasmodic dysphonia.
What? Now I know I recommended it and I tried to get that message to him a few different ways but I wasn't sure that he had the same — well I know that he doesn't have exactly the same form of spasmodic dysphonia, that's a voice disorder, as I had. But there are two flavors and I thought he might have the other flavor and I wasn't sure if there was a surgery for that one. But apparently there is.
Now what I don't know is if he's still recovering from it or because we haven't heard him speak well in public yet, right? Is that true? We have not heard him speak well in public which means he may be actually recovering right now. Has anybody seen him in public recently? Because and then I did a quick Google search. I didn't see anything about it. Oh he was on Tucker and sounds better. And he was on Tucker last week and did he sound better? Oh really? Well I'm gonna have to look that up. That would be amazing. I hope this is — I hope that I actually helped.
You know I've told you before that the weirdest thing about my life is how many medical cures I've been behind. You know that I've literally caused people to heal in a variety of ways. Now one of them is I was promoting the sur

gical solution for what had been an incurable problem for forever and anybody who got that surgery and got fixed if they heard it from me then you know then it helped. And there are a number of other diseases and stuff that I've helped with directly and indirectly. All right, good luck to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on his voice. If his experience is like mine — I'm shy bladder for example — if his exp…
