The Carnivore Lawyer Running for Congress! | Christopher Brandlin

[Music] Hello everyone. Thank you for joining me for another episode of Plan Free MD. I'm your host Dr. Anthony JP and today I have a very special returning guest, my good friend Chris Branlin, who is uh coming back to talk to us about what he's doing and his uh upcoming run for Congress. Chris, great to see you, man. How you doing? Great to see you again. So, um and thank you for having me back, too. Of course. Yeah. Um, for people that uh didn't see our first episode and don't know who you are, can you just give us a bit of background and introduction about yourself and what you do? Sure. I'll run through it uh a lot quicker than last time. So, I um uh before I even became an attorney, I came from the health and fitness industry as a personal trainer uh during college and law school. And uh you know, I used to be a you know, a wrestler in high school. So, I was a very competitive wrestler. So I try to stay in the fitness industry even kind of going into college and uh I was a personal trainer during college at Cal State Long Beach. It actually did very well and I did that as I was a fraternity president but I fraternity president wasn't something you should brag about because you have a bad background. You I definitely drank and partied a little bit more than most people. Uh but anyways um right when the market crashed in 2007 I you know I'm not sure if you remember that Anthony I'm not sure if you were in the US at that time um but in 2007208 it was a huge market crash so I was getting my bachelor's degree at Cal State Long Beach. All my friends were telling like hey uh you know we all got our degrees and we haven't found any work no one's hiring. I was like [ __ ] you know what I'm not sure if I want to be a fitness trainer for the rest of my life. You know I got this bachelor's in communications which is kind of a [ __ ] degree. Uh, so I was like, you know what? Let me see what I can do. And I need to look into a masters. And then, but I'm like the youngest of three kids. Um, and so my father's an attorney, my other father's, uh, my other uncle's a um, attorney and my other uncle's a judge and my grand uncle's attorney and my other grand uncle's an attorney, and his kids are attorneys. So, I'm like the last of the Brownlands. So, I kind of asked my father. I was like, "Hey, what do you think about me going to law school?" And he kind of laughed at me because he called me like the skinny version of John Belalushi. He's like, "You know, you part of your ass off. I don't really I can't take serious anymore. I was like, "Oh, no. I want to prove him wrong." So, I not only was I still training at the time. Um, but I basically like almost completely stopped drinking. I was slowing down the drinking drastically and then I just stopped drinking period. And I work with a registered dietitian because I wanted to run my own training business to in between law classes. So, I took all my clients from 24-hour fitness with me privately and I was actually able to pay for my own law school. I was I was it was good because my business did so well and I went into all natural bodybuilding. I was always a 195 lb like kind of stocky powerlifter. So I'm not sure if you can record I'm like I'm like about little under 150 right now and I kind of floated this wow my life. But I used to be close to 200 lb as a powerlifter during college. Oh wow. 190 probably average 180 190 but sometimes I got up to 200. But all I didn't take any substances. All I did I was eating six to 7,000 calories a day and just lifting heavy. But I was also partying and drinking a lot. I didn't eat a lot of sugary foods, but it was basically just doing like, you know, just it's that ego like that meatthead mentality. I don't want to say meatthead because we're trying to use it like in a good sense, but anyways, it was just like a shitload of um chicken and rice and um you know, a b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b bulk amount of that and but I would be you know drinking on the weekends like 24/7. So, I wanted to cut it down really uh straight. So, I worked with a registered dietician who actually is a huge fan of the carnivore diet. By the way, he's worked with a lot of allnatural bodybuilders and his name is Chuck Rudolph. He's actually in Tennessee. He may be close to when I go meat stock next month or in May. But anyways, um he basically put me on a very strict cre ketogenic diet and I did carb cycling where basically you're doing like it's it's just like you know meat and vegetables uh and some quality good fats um for three to four days straight and then you would refeed on carbohydrates. Mainly you try to do with the save carbs like the sweet potatoes was the easiest thing that they use in the bodybuilding world. the allnatural bodybuilder part, you know, you know, the unnatural ones, they can eat a lot definitely a lot more. But anyways, yes. So, I wanted to be very strict. So, I got down to like I was a little under 200 and I and when I started and I got all the way down to about 155, but I kept all my muscle because he put me in a strict training regimen, too, because he wor you know, he's a a very fit guy too. So, I ended up getting to like 3% body fat and I kept it and I was just refeeding and I didn't drink and I didn't party. I lived on the Tupperware diet where you make all of your food the night before and you basically eating every 3 to four hours. I mean during dur law school it kind of worked out for me. But anyways, um I my last contest was Mr. Los Angeles Natural is actually on my birthday in 2010. So I won my last contest on my birthday, but I was like, "All right, I got to take the bar exam. You know, I got to focus on studying. So enough of this competing [ __ ] I need to like have like a like like a sane life for a while." Um, so anyways, I passed the bar exam and I was practicing law. And then for the after the first couple years of practicing law, even though I was probably I wasn't eating a lot of crap, but I did celebrate a little bit um on like, you know, the alcohol and different functions, all that, but all of a sudden I got really sick in, you know, 2016 and I made the huge mistake by going to a lot of conventional doctors because I never went to the doctors before that. I really never had a reason unless it was just because I'd do back flips off of like a house like when I was drunk. I would Yeah. I was like, "Oh my god, I I can't believe I just broke my leg. I didn't land this." And I was like, you know, basically get, you know, uh, you know, put on the stretcher and like wheeled over to St. Joseph's Hospital or was it St. Mary's Hospital in Long Beach down was down the street from the fraternity house. I I became a frequent patient. But anyways, um, so I was a little pissed. I had to go back to the doctor for like, you know, for not feeling good because it wasn't just my gut. It was like everything. It was it was joint pain like throughout my body. And I remember like it was just complete like muscle pain too. And I just felt so tired. I always used to get up at 4 in the morning and like work out. And I was kind of that kind of like adrenaline junkie during college and even law school, but I couldn't get up. I was just so like glued to bed. So uh when the main problem was that got I didn't make the worst mistake. They put me on a crapload of pharmaceuticals and I just mainly it was just a lot of uh like laxatives and antibiotics and cortica steroids. They thought they can kind of reduce like you know the inflammatory imute process and that combination completely destroyed my gut and it got so bad to a point where a piece of my intestine my sigmoid colon the towards the end of your colon was starting to get really inflamed and um and the doctor he said hey you know what I think this has been the problem the whole time his surgeon over at UCI and uh he's like um you know I think if we just remove this piece of your intestine this s this part of your sigmoid about six inches towards the end of your intestine you're going to much better cuz I I I hit it. I was I was have like the party life before that. Even before I start like, you know, got into law school, but I still had a good social and dating life. And I was like, "Fuck, I've been sick for like the last year. I've been like, you know, like stuck to a bed. This this really sucks." And so that's why I became like so desperate at the point like doctors get me better. I feel like [ __ ] what the hell is wrong with me? So ended up removing a piece of my intestine, but I told you in the last kind of podcast that it was one of the worst u like experiences ever. It was like one of the worst surgeries because not only did I'm not sure if they had a problem with an anesthesia, but I actually woke up when they were sew sewing up my intestines. I woke up too early and I screamed in so much pain and someone with an amount of tattoos on his back and breaking almost every bone in my body throughout my life from stupid stunts. I've never felt this amount of pain. It was I just remember I screamed probably with the entire like 12th floor uh hospital at UCI probably heard everything. So I screamed so loud that they had to give me a bunch of morphine and put me back to sleep. I think it was charmodol as well. They did a combination of everything just a really strong sedative uh to put me to sleep and I was to drug me up and then I woke up later and I asked them like okay so what's the next like oh we're going to release you uh like you know uh by Thursday. It was on a Tuesday. I'm like in two days all right as long as I'm going to be better that's fine. But I was still felt so uncomfortable. I was like I can't really move. is just, you know, they had me really drugged up and when they released me, I just started having a bunch of uh problem. You know, I didn't even move my bowels before they released. I'm like, I want to make sure this thing like healed up like is all fixed and I started having complications for the next couple weeks. Just really bad pain. I wasn't wanting to eat that much. And then I ended up developing a basically humongous infection. It was the size of a grapefruit. I have the photo still. I don't want to gross out your audience, but you know, anyways, it became like it was almost like the movie The Alien where it was gonna pop out of your stomach. And I was thinking, I was like, "Holy [ __ ] it feels like I have something growing inside me like an alien or a critter or something, but it was popping out. It was bright red." So, when I took that like a photo, the surgeon said, "Hey, go back to the hospital. We need to go back to the ER. We need to treat that immediately." And they basically got the scalpel and they didn't put me to sleep. I was completely awake the entire [ __ ] time. And they said, "Oh, we'll put a little bit of lidocaine." They and I just remember right when they started cutting open since it was so infected and inflamed, it was so sensitive. So right when they started cutting me open because the main kind of incision was 2 inches below the belly button. It was mainly a laparoscopic surgery. So right when they were cutting open I was already feeling pain. I just remember they didn't give me any painkillers but I you know I I was just in such a basically almost biting my tongue to the point I was bleeding from my mouth. It was that bad. I was just trying not to scream. And when I I tried to ask him, I was like, "Hey, um, I have some questions that we can hopefully answer." He's like, "No, you can ask me right now." He was like, one of the other surgeons at the hospital like, "So, you're only going to allow me to speak with you while you're cutting open my intestines?" He's like, "Yeah, that's my schedule today." And I was like, "I can't believe this [ __ ] kind of treatment." It was the worst decision I did. So, anyways, and instead of throwing back up, he said, "No, the infection came from the inside. So, what we're going to do is you're going to gauze in it. you're going to change it three times a day. This is part of the wound healing when you got major infections. You don't want to sew it back up because then you're just building a moisturized environment. It's just going to regrowing like a lot of bacteria, right? So, he's like, "No, we're just going to change. You're going to have to change the gauze." He squeezed out of basically the infection plus and it was so painful. I just remember I I had the big two inch incision. Well, about almost two or three inches and and I was like, "Oh my god, this looks like a vagina now. It just like this. What the [ __ ] This is like I could put a hole in I could put my finger in it. this is this is pretty gross up. He's like, "No, no, just don't touch it. Just just keep it clean. Just change the gauze three times a day. Morning, afternoon, evening." And I did that for a couple weeks, but and started getting even though it wasn't sealing up all the way, and it started getting really big again. I was like, "Holy [ __ ] this is getting infected again. Go back, cut you back open, squeeze it out in no anesthesia." I'm like, "Holy [ __ ] I'm building a good pain tolerance. That's the only good thing about this." So, um, anyways, um, and I just remember after that I was like, look, it I was kind of losing weight, but I was like, look, it I'm so inflamed. I, you know, I basically was so sensitive. I was like, I'm not going to have a drip of lemon juice. I'm going to basically drink just purified water. I'm doing an elimination diet where it's going to like, you know, slow cook like, you know, chicken breast and and meats. I never want to throw those out. But then I realized when I started reducing the plants, my inflammation was going down. I was like, "All right, I I can't I already knew I already knew because I was a dietetic technician before that because I did some additional classes um through my credential like right before this happened. I was like, look, I got no insoluble fiber. I definitely maybe I could try some ins soluble fiber, but then it started giving me a lot of bloating and all that. So, I was like, all right, I'm trying to like measure this out. And what I ended up doing is I did a 10-day water fast. Okay, but I've done fast before when I was having the gut problems, but I did one a little bit longer. So 10 days I I got got a little skinnier than I thought wanted. But when I reffed, this is the first time when I reffed on only meat cuz I was kind of already looking it until I was like, "Hey, I'm having less problems with meat. Maybe I just made a little bit vegetables from natural motility or something like that." And I remember it was a huge uh um it was a huge difference. So I I started looking into I was like, "Look, oh my god, maybe if I only eat meat the rest of my life, this may be something that can save my life." Um so I ended up um looking into it. The first person I spoke with was Michaela Peterson. Uh this is before she became popular in like mid 2018. And I just remember that she just made it clear like no even your cooking oils only only animal this is helping me out with my auto uh autoimmune conditions. This is probably your only option now. Only get tallow. And I never even bought tallow before that. I even like heard heard of tallow. I was like beef that where the hell did I find this [ __ ] And I was like you know I didn't see it at all the grocery stores. So, I started like buying that online. And then Sprouts and Whole Foods started, you know, um offering that, too. So, I was just eating that and I was just I I noticed I was like, "All right, I want to get a little bit more in tune to see like, you know, how many organs to eat, what type of meats, what's the best, you know." Uh then I followed up with Sean Baker. Uh so this he was already pretty popular but this is before he became a lot more popular and it was actually just a normal Skype and he said yeah is you know you got to see what's going to be you're suiting your body the best you know like see how you respond to certain meats and all that because I couldn't do any dairy and I couldn't do any eggs. Um and then I told him I was thinking about you know tryh working with the paleoccina clinic because you know with Dr. Sophia Clemens and just going over there and like just taking a couple weeks off of work because I was still working this entire time. I didn't take any breaks. Yeah. So, uh I ended up taking a couple weeks off of work and I flew over to Budapest, Hungary um on Thanksgiving in 2018. So, it's like November and that's where I met Dr. Dr. Sophia Clemens. She was with Dr. Tooff at the time and I just remember that it was um Hey everyone, really happy to announce a new sponsor for the show for everybody down in Australia, Stockman Stakes, who are delivering high quality grass-fed and finished pasture-raised beef and other meats. flash frozen and vacuum sealed to your door. Something that I've been enjoying a lot of myself recently as well. They also have a great range of specialty items such as highfat keto mints and carnivore beef and organs mints with liver, kidneys, and beef heart as well. So, use code chaffy today for a free order of beef mints or another specialty gift along with your order at stockmstakes.com.au and I'll see you over there. Thanks, guys. Uh, I just remember that I asked her about supplements the first time I met her. She's like, "No, you're not allowed to take anything. You're going to eat just quality meats, you know, salt and water. That's it. That's you're going to that's all you're going to eating." And I was amazed cuz I stayed there a little bit over a week uh on like even though I was if I ate too much fat because I think I ate too much of their pork fat slabs because their pork is so good because they don't feed the their pork any corn or soy. So, oh yeah, I was like I never usually like pork before that. I was like, "Oh, I like a little like eggs and bacon sometimes." But I never really liked any kind of like loins or pork or like, you know, so when I started eating that pork, it became like my favorite meat after that. Um, but anyways, I realized like, "Holy [ __ ] I don't even need to take any kind of like like like, you know, proinetics or something like that for my gut. You know, if you get too stuck up, just eat much bunch of fat. This is like the easiest thing. This is and everything." I just remember my inflammation went down immediately after that. So when I came back to the US, I wanted to promote it a little bit more and I started being more and more outspoken. Uh I was thinking of being get my masters in uh dietetics. But then um when I told the uh the head dietetics director at USC um he's like oh you know or no it was a she but she's like no you got a very extensive background. You're attorney been practicing law and got dietetics degree and um you know why you want to be part of this dietetics program. I was like, well, I kind of want to, you know, I want to get a little bit more intrigued with this. I want to get more involved, but I also want to make some changes that I think would be really benefiting like, you know, community as a whole. I think you need to flip your food pyramid upside down. I remember it was like it was her and like three others at like a community meeting when I was doing my like my first interview and they right when I said that I'm like I was like they're like that's probably not proper to say, Mr. Brown. I'm like, "Well, don't you realize that like for the past, you know, 30, 40 years, we're getting un we're we're not getting healthier. We're getting fatter. We're getting slower. We're getting more pathetic." I was like, "I think it's a lot of your like excessive carbohydrates and sugars, and now you're demonizing meat." And I just found out that I'm healing from meat and I want to spread the word. And they basically said, "We don't feel we feel like you're a suitable candidate." So, I got my MBA. Then when the lockdown started, um, uh, that's where I really didn't like the force vaccinate, uh, vaccines that they're doing throughout the United States in the mass mandates. And I was the only attorney speaking out. And I decided when I was finished, I right when I finished my MBA, right when I the lockdown started, I decided I wanted to get my PhD and uh, and potentially run for politics after that. So that's been my that was my goal like in 2021. Um, and I started like the PhD program in 2022 and I'm right next to the finish line because I just got my oral defense approved. Um, but yeah, lot I think a lot of people in politics is my my observation, my research, as I just told you, more than half of the presidents United States are were attorneys. They had they had a law degree. So, um, I I've already met that requirement. And the other kind of offer, they have some kind of bachelor's degree in public policy administration. And I like for the fact that my public policy uh credential, the residencies that we had were crossovers with public health. And this is a huge statement because not only am I uh a huge proponent of the carnivore diet and I wanted to promote the good word, but I really think that they're overprescribing a bunch of pharmaceuticals. And especially when they did the vaccine mandate, some people at least thought outside the box like this doesn't seem right, you know, especially going to force it. So, um, that's actually part of my dissertation topic that I just surpassed my oral defense is also some of the damages from the vaccine mandates, hospital shortages, you know, mental health effects on terminating uh, employees because uh, I think the African-American healthcare workers were the highest rates that showed the most hesitancy toward vaccine. people don't realize that it was actually the black um nurses that were saying I was like hey my god maybe I should be a black nurse because I'm like the one speaking out against the vaccine. So they were hesitant for a lot of different reasons but you wanted to study that and the other part of the dissertation topic the other research question is what should hospital administrators consider for any kind of future uh global I don't like to use the word pandemic but you know crisis they want to call it um so um because you can't just be terminating all your employees because what happens you have a hospital shortages throughout the nation and people that go in for chemotherapy or the regular you know they're not treating for COVID no they want to treat like you know cancer or like some radiation therapy or orthopedic surgeries because, you know, they have they've had like a like a like a basically a tor a tear in their like their their labum and their hip for like months. They're walking on something that's not even there. You know, they can't get any of those procedures because they don't have enough staff at the hospitals. So, you can see that the vaccine mandates were hugely. But, so my my major goal is to promote uh a change or a curriculum uh possibly even with the medical institutions too because I know you talked about that with Dr. Don and I talked with Dr. Don about that too is uh that's going to be one of the change but also I think we need to put a huge amount of the restrictions or at least limitations on pharmaceuticals. I I can't believe as an attorney I see so many most of my clients are like in their 60s7s some in their 50s most of them are a little older than me okay because I turned 40 in June. Um, but I see sometimes when we're here for a mediation or a deposition and we have to go in the conference room, they got like a pillc case and I'm like, "Dude, why are you taking so many pills?" I don't take any pills. I take a little bit of BPC 157. I just take that because I like keeping my inflammation down because I probably torture my body by not getting enough sleep and driving across state lines half the time. But anyways, I see and they don't even know half their medications. I'm like, "This is a huge issue." I was like, you don't even And not just that, these people are usually you could just tell they're just they're stressed. They're they're overweight and they eat like crap. And I'm like, you know what? You're not really getting better. And every time you come in here, you're complaining about not feeling good. I think I have some, you know, I think I have some good like I get I have a good hypothesis of why why you're not feeling good. You don't even know half the pills you're taking. You don't know what that's going to do. Do you do you have you looked at the side effects? Why you take this? Well, my doctor was telling me I'll take this for my blood pressure, but I may have some kind of side effects with um you know uh with edema as well, or I may have some complications. So, I'm going to take some diuretics on top of that and this is for my I think this is for my liver, but they said, you know, don't take too much, but I'm not sure if this is and they don't even know what they're taking. They're just taking it. So, I I can't believe like, you know, you know, every you look at we're in a capitalist society where businesses have to thrive. They have to make money, but you shouldn't make money at the at the torture of your own business expense. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, when it's producing so much more harm, you should have like a costbenefit analysis of what you're doing. at least some kind of moral conscience of like, hey, I'm actually making people a lot sicker and I'm killing them, but I'm making money. Um, and I really hope a lot of people can actually recognize that that, you know, these pharmaceutical industries, they control everything. Like I told you, my Fox News segment had to get shortened just because I made a comment on big pharma. I was like, but Fox News, even though it's supposed to be more, you know, I'm a very strong devoted Republican, but when Fox News was supposed to be a little bit more rightwing, you know, even the big farmers buying now that that's why people are like, they got sponsors, you know. Yeah, I know. Most of their funding is coming from big pharma, like they control all that and that's why they have so much advertising. I'm look at I met with Bobby Kennedy once at the inauguration. So, I went to the Baja Ba and that was my big kind of an introduction to run to really move forward on this the 2026 midterms because I had some people that sit down with me and they looked over my my background. They're like, you know, you're you're an interesting character. Like, you know, we you talked about running for Congress in 2028, 2030. Why don't you just do it for the midterms? We just got, you know, Trump just got in office and Bobby Kennedy is going to get sworn in. You know, you know, you would be we can give you some people that are part of team Kennedy as your campaign manager. That's why I'm so fortunate. I'm like, dude, I was a huge proponent. I mean, I he's not a carnivore, but he's thinking of like some of the major issues that really just need to be addressed first, you know, and um anyways, yeah, one of his things that he's doing right now is he's limiting the amount of advertising on pharmaceuticals, which I think is a huge point because they can buy out most of all these news uh these outlets, all these TV outlets. I mean they can they have the more money because advertising costs a crapload of money and they have so much the rich one of the the wealthiest industries known to man is the pharmaceutical industry. they have all the money. They can buy so much air time. And you can see that other commercials can be so manipulative because they'll see like some person like really suffering and all of a sudden he's playing around with his family like oh well you know you know he's you know if you want to have a new kind of a way of life you know you know try this this product and these side effects really and they say like like you know 20 different side effects are really kick within like 5 seconds towards the end of the commercial and then they have a very the person doing a big smile right before they finish the commercial. I'm not sure if you could have noticed that right too. It's a very trend, but when you when you really follow the side effects, oh my god, you might, you know, might nausea, vomiting, you know, diarrhea and uh and I think one said like impotency, I'm like, "Oh my god, you're taking like they're probably taking a pill. Why are you smiling?" They're having a cough and all of a sudden they can't get their dick out. I'm like, "You should know that. I mean, you gota you got to make sure everything's working." I think, you know, I got to make sure everything's working so I stay away from that crap. Um, so yeah, that's where I really want to put limitations and I really found it very intriguing. um with you and Dr. Don that he Yeah, because I've discussed this with a couple other doctors of my clients because I I some of my clients are functional doctors in LA County and they kind of promote like hyper oxygen, ozone therapy and you know, vitamin infusion and stem cells and they made the same comments like oh it's just because you know I my the medical board of California is going to restrict my license if I really kind of completely talk about bad about these pharmaceuticals. But this is how I'm taught. I was taught in my medical institution with mainly those pharmacologies and surgeries. Those are the two main things. Those are those ate up like most of the curriculum in medical institutions. So I think needs to be really addressed too. And um so I'm I'm very fortunate that I'm I'm getting a little bit a lot more support than I expected. I really hope wished my own family would be supporting my my oldest brother's uh supporting me at least. My other brother is the opposite. I told you about him. is like the complete opposite of me in like every way you can imagine. Um, you know, and then my uncle who's the uh retired judge, he's actually um really supported me too. So, and I want to apprec I want to thank you because you're one of our biggest contributors. So, I want to appreciate your donation. Of course, man. Well, you know, you know, it's always it's always important to, you know, support, you know, people that that are going to, you know, help people and and that's the thing. I've known you for a while. I know what you're in this for. You're not trying to go in there to to like, you know, get involved in insider trading and and the sneaky, you know, backdoor deals that are Yeah. Nancy Blow's teaching those courses online now. I heard so. Yeah. All the insider trading, how to how to build the the wealthiest estate on a $200,000 salary. Right. Exactly. So, she can teach teach a class, you know, and um and so, you know, that's the thing. It's it's um we need we need more people in politics that actually are trying to just like help people you know it it politics now because it is so lucrative because there is so much corruption it it attracts the wrong people and previously I I do feel that there is some good change but I think it needs to be pushed to a new level though so yeah well you know you know President Truman said the only way to get rich in in politics is if you're corrupt and now everyone's rich in politics you know so what does that tell you and um you know So it it it attracts people that are that that want to sell out, that want to be corrupt, that want to use the system for their advantage. And um you know, and and you know, that's another thing too, having money in politics. I mean, the the you know, the Supreme Court decisions of the 1930s with FDR um changing it from you, you could only spend money on the general welfare, not you know, specific, you know, general welfare of the people. You couldn't you couldn't spend money on special interest. And they decided and you'll know the the more details more to this but um they said well oh actually if I you know if I help this special interest that's sort of like trickle down economics you it'll trickle out and that will help everybody and so that that is the general welfare of the people and of course that's not that's exactly the opposite of what the framers said you know um James Madison who uh basically wrote the constitution when he was a senator in the 1790s I believe there was a slave revolt in Haiti and you know they killed a bunch of the the French slave owners in in there and a lot of them fled over into the US and um there was a bill up in front of Congress saying that well well maybe we should give them like $15,000 at the time which is a lot of money uh to just help them get on their feet and James Madison went on the floor of the the Senate and I rate and just said he wrote this and he said you know I failed to lay my finger on that article of the constitution that allows Congress to spend it the money of its constituents for acts of benevolence And seeing as that he wrote the damn thing, he would know. And but that's that's what we you know what we're doing now is we're we're have all these special interests, we have all these these acts of benevolence, but they're not really. They're they're just sort of moneyaundering, you know, taking public money and putting it in private hands and uh and that's what what we're finding now. We're seeing all these these areas of corruption and and things like that. People, you know, siphoning money out. And because there's so much money in Congress now or in in just politics in general, uh it attracts those sorts of people. Whereas before that, before there was money in there, before they had this massive piggy bank and they had the Federal Reserve, they could just write blank checks. They're payable by the American people and they could spend money on whatever they wanted. They they couldn't do that. I mean, so it it attracted people that um actually wanted to look view it as a public service or or felt that they could move things in a in a positive direction. and and now it's it's really just more about, you know, what what they can get out of it. And so when you see people that that you you know because you know them personally, um they aren't looking for that, you know, obviously you want to support that sort of thing. Yeah. And I I really think we just need people more outspoken. I think even before the election, I was like the only like, you know, pe like person like, you know, bumper sticker like saying make America great again and all that. But I have so many colleagues that are attorneys. I got to say most of the attorneys, they I don't want to really completely annihilate my my own profession, but I don't like my my own profession for many reasons. A lot of them just really don't have any testicles. These guys they're just they're afraid to speak out. They didn't want to speak out. They're like, "Oh yeah, I don't want to get the vaccine, but uh uh but I'm not going to speak out against it." I'm like, "Why?" Like they're forcing that like on all of the employees. I have a lot of friends who work with the government and they're forcing out all the government employees. I'm like, this is completely wrong. That it should not be mandatory. I was like, we want you to speak out. But I I I just realized that a lot of people just they need a lot of people are afraid to speak out because they're like, well, I got a wife and kid. I don't want anybody coming after me. I know. I told you I'm not married and I don't have any kids that I know about um after college. But anyways, I I I I I really I don't have anything to be really worried about, but I know we need honestly beyond the carnivore community. I mean, the entire health community that want to make some changes and really realize that we're kind of falling apart, not only health-wise, but economically too, someone needs to speak up and have a spine and, you know, speak out. And I already, look, I already told you I get threats for a living. And especially since I do bank garnishments, I do collections. one of the few attorneys that actually helps the clients collect from a judgment because most attorneys most judgments I think a little over 90% of all monetary judgments are uncollectible. People don't realize that at least they can't collect. Yeah. No, that's why you um you mainly took that you look at if they were on real property because you can put leans on real property and then you can I'm one of the few attorneys that knows knows how to do a judicial foreclosure. Basically, you ask the court to sell the property to pay off the judgment. Um and it took me a couple months to actually study and practice that. But I've done I actually get hired by other attorneys that do that. But I got really good at garnishing bank accounts too. So I I've looked at how to ascertain like you know statewide and nationwide bank accounts and that's why kind of like I mentioned Olivia but yeah she's really good point of that and uh yeah I so I have a lot of people coming to me even after they get a judgment with a different attorney. I was like, "Yeah, but we want to do collections." And when someone gets their bank account of like, you know, let's say if they have $80,000 just completely wiped out over like a $200,000 judgment and, you know, you still got, you know, 120 remaining plus interest. You know, the person going to look at the the notice that they get from the bank and the notice they get from the LA LA County Sheriff is going to have my name and the biggest font of Christopher Brown is be the one that's wiping out your bank account. And my sometimes my client's name is not even on it. I was like this is kind of some interesting kind of like post kind of like attachment to a ribbit of execution but anyways or my client's name on it's in the smallest font possible but my name is usually larger and it says you know this is going to person this is like the proof of service is going to have my address so I should get security at one point but yeah I get I get occasional death threats I get a lot of threats and especially when I spoke out about my political beliefs a lot of other attorneys like trying to shut me down and they're because attorney so other attorneys are like oh my god he's an anti Faxer, he's he's going to make everybody's worse. And then some of them even try to report me to this California state bar and the Texas state bar because I'm licensed of both states. I'm proh feature a little bit like in um in Nevada, as I told you, I can do limited practice. But they try to report me in the state bar for speaking out against the vaccine and they just call me the conspiracy theorists that I'm going to be woring that I'm uh it's oh in misinformation. All right. are basically promoting misinformation uh to the entire public and and that's going to be in violation of, you know, some standards that relate to moral turpitude for the community. And it was complete [ __ ] I had to speak with the California State Department. They never prosecuted, but I just it's like everybody's trying to take take me out because I'm speaking out. So, I don't mind that. And I know it's going to get worse as I go through the politics and I was told to get a gun. So, I I'm trying to expedite that right now. Um, yeah, but it's but no, I think I think our entire country really needs people with some actual actual spine to speak out. You're always going to have some threats, but you know, would you rather was it like Amelia Zapata or something, you know, maybe maybe one of those kind of like traditional speeches like, you know, I'd rather like I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees. Like you I think we have to have more people that mentality. We need more strong men and women. And that's why I do like the new cabinet. I mean, huge fan of Pam Bondi and you know, Tulsi Gabbard and a few others and uh yeah, Christine Nome and I think we need a lot more people to bring this up, but I think we really need to embrace that. And I think my benefit that I want to bring to this campaign is I'm going to put a huge aspect on uh the you know the changes of the department of public health and how it's going to be affecting all not only the medical institutions who are teaching our future doctors on how to treat clients instead of you know just treating primarily pharmarmacology you know for every problem. Yeah. And yeah, here there's a pill. We're not if so if you have a doctor is common saying um if you go to a doctor and you tell the doctor you're having problems and he prescribes you medicine without act asking about your lifestyle, your daily diet, you don't really have a doctor, you have a drug dealer, right? And I think that needs to be changed. I I don't I don't think patients I think patients need to be patients again. Patients instead of being customers because patients are becoming customers for routine doctors like put them on these pharmaceuticals, see how it works. Um, I do think there needs to be a huge change in um, how we're promoting the uh, dietary guidelines for the children too. So, I think that's going to be the most important as you may recognize. I'm sure you have some nieces and nephews, right? Um, or at least some cousins that do, but yeah, you can see that like the kids nowadays are so unhealthy and out of shape. And not just that, you can't even tell what gender they are half the time. Like, oh my god, what is this? And so they're not only are they kind of giving them bad dietary problems, but they're promoting kind of like, you know, hormone medication amongst adolescence. I see some really huge moral issues with that. So I think that needs to be changed as well. And um and economically, I I'm really a big proponent of the DOGE. So uh I I know you're kind of in the United States for right now and you probably have a lot of your family in the United States, right? So, so I got to ask you, and I'm going try not to stir this up politically, too bad. I I told you that before we started, but how does your family feel about um you know, $8 million of our tax dollars uh to going to uh transgender rat surgeries? Do you think that was really effective or necessary? I I don't even know anybody even realized that. I don't think anybody realized that. I think when they found that, they were probably just like, "Wait, we're doing what?" It was This is why you work hard and you pay your taxes is Yeah. So you Well, that's it. Yeah, for, you know, for the betterment of society, you know, and um who was it? Um, oh god, who's the guy? Um, uh, you know, is it Brandan Paul? Um, yeah. Yeah. He he he's been doing this for years. You know, he goes up and he's just like, it's like we're spending this like this is like, you know, $200,000 on this nonsense study, you know, $5 million. Fouchy. He He hates Fouchy just as much as I do, too. So, a huge fan, but yeah, you see a lot of this and I there's so much waste of our attacks here. I mean, this is I want transparency and like and people like, well, you think you're going to be hiding like every other politician? You're an attorney. You're going to be hiding. I'm like, no, I think I I'm like Mr. TMI. I'm going to give you too much information, stuff that you even don't want to hear. Okay. So, um yeah. So, I think that's really needs to be focused. Like, I really don't, you know, even if people want to run a really detailed background, go ahead and welcome. Do it. All you're gonna find is a bunch of speeding tickets. It's You're not gonna find any major. I did some broken legs and things like that. Yeah, I stuck with the basics. It was just weed and alcohol. Okay. It was the typical fraternity president. But no, I think I got my [ __ ] together. I think I've proven myself. So, I I got to watch on the language. Uh apologize. Go ahead. Sorry. So, um yeah. Well, it's it's interesting. Um, you know, like you were talking about about, you know, everybody on these this cascade of of medications was called a prescription cascade where you go on one medication and then that causes side effects. You need another medication and another medication and another medication. Pretty soon you find out that, you know, you're on eight, nine different medications and and and what the hell are they for? They're actually came as a consequence of all the other medications. And really it's just this this one medication back here that you really should be on something else. Um and then that just knocked down all the dominoes. Um Cali means uh was talking about this, you know, he's a he's a whistleblower. He was an insider for the, you know, the food processed food and drug companies. And he said that um there was at one point he heard it was like speaking with like an executive from some drug company. And um he said that the guy asked a rhetorical question. ers said, "Hey, you you know what our favorite my favorite drug is that our company makes?" And they were like, "You know, you know, you would hope it'd be something like, you know, something that like treats like, you know, childhood leukemia or something like that actually like helps somebody, you know." And he's like, "No, my favorite my favorite drug that our company makes are drugs that have side effects that we have other drugs that treat." And you know, if I think if I heard that, I probably would have just punched him in the neck, you know, like just dropped him. I mean that that's that that's just evil. I mean that's actually that is very sinister. You know that you're only thriving uh financially based on a more they suffer the more money I make. People need to run and you're treating people as things you know these are just these are just cattle. You know we're just going to use like how do we milk these things for money? You know how do we it's it's really sort of a slave slave master mentality. you know, you you're just trying to keep people under control and just milk money off them and take advantage of them as much as possible as opposed to, you know, the free market system is has been described as forced altruism. You have to provide something beneficial for other people or they won't buy your product. And so this is sort of a like a sort of a sneaky backdoor thing where yes, they can provide a lot of uh benefit, but they intentionally don't try to cure anything. They intentionally just try to have it good enough so you can live with the disease and live with the problem and never get off of it. And so then then you're sort of beholden to them. And um you know that that's that's a corruption of that. Now you can choose you can choose okay well maybe I don't want to want to do that. But when there's no other game in town, you know, they don't really have have much of a choice. And when you have when you have doctors who are now basically being trained to be drug peddlers, we're sort of the the on street uh drug pushers for the cartels. And I do think of them as as drug cartels. I don't think of these things as as legitimate organizations. Um they're they're dealing drugs and they're it's just that these drugs happen to be legal uh under certain circumstances, under certain conditions. Um, but they're obviously still drugs, but they're there that same mentality. You know, it's not just like, hey, let's cure disease. Um, they're explicitly not trying to cure disease. They're explicitly trying to treat symptoms so that you can give them that medication their whole life because that's what any any good drug dealer does. You hook them early, you get them young, and you keep them for the rest of their life. So, you get that that return, that that comeback. And they're addicted, and they have to come back. one, you know, with cocaine or meth because they're addicted and they can't stop. And the other is because they have high blood pressure and they're going to stroke out, so they can't stop, you know, and so instead of trying to actually fix people and help them, um, they're just trying to milk them and take advantage of them in a in a sickened state. And that that really bothers me. And that's sort of what drives me to to do this because a lot of these things are so easy to fix. They're so simple, so straightforward. It may not be very easy for someone to execute that and and completely change their lifestyle, but it is simple. It it there there is a solution here. You know, Hypocrates said, you know, over 2,000 years ago, before you try to heal somebody, first ask them if they're willing to give up that which is making them sick. And that we knew that 2500 years ago. And now it's like, no, no. The only thing that can fix people are drugs. only things that can fix people for these diseases that never existed in this in this number are drugs. It's like, well, what changed to make these so prevalent? Why don't we look at that and maybe stop doing that and we might have better results. Hey guys, just want to take a second to thank our sponsor at Carnivore Bar. I don't promote many products because honestly, all you need to be healthy is to just eat meat. For those times that you're out hiking, road tripping, or stuck at work and you want nutritious snack that is just meat, fat, and salt if you want it, the Carnivore Bar is a great option. So, I like this product not because it's just pure meat, but also because I want the carnivore market to thrive as well. And the more we support meat only products, the more meat only products there will be available in the mainstream. So, if this sounds like something you'd like to get behind, check it out using my discount code Anthony to get 10% off, which also applies to subscriptions, giving you 25% off total. All right, thanks guys. Kind of like the low fat craze that kind of stirred up in the 80s where they said, "Yeah, that's going to be killer reducing every fat and then all of a sudden you seem like everybody just starts going overloading on carbohydrates and just gets tremendously overweight." Yeah. No, you bring up a good point about um you know when the doctors are overprescribing. I think that's a huge issue, but I think there is also I'm I'm going to give it a little ley. So look at I I I never like to bash an entire profession. So that's why I enjoy having functional doctors as clients that think outside the box and one of them actually wants to help with the lawsuit that Dr. Don is. So I haven't handled a class action in a long time and is so much work but you have to work on a team. Yeah. But no, but I think it's I don't think there's a a huge amount of doctors that are just completely sinister and evil. I just think of a lot of them just they're No, they're just they're misinformed. They're miseducated where yeah, look at if I'm be taught this through my entire kind of like, you know, education is going becoming a medical doctor that pharmaceuticals are going to be necessary to treat all these different conditions, then, you know, that's what I'm going to be believing is going to be helping my patients. They they think they're going to be helping patients and they that's where they go. So I don't think they're, you know, and I don't think they're uneducated. They're just miseducated. It's just they're they're just taught like a different kind of rubric. And I think that should be focused too. And I did like the fact that there are, look at just like doctors, there's a lot of attorneys that will make more money, offer more person suffering financially because they'll get them in a situation. They'll convince them like, "Yeah, you know what? We really got to take the case this direction. This is going to be the best thing." and all of a sudden it they're like they're they're losing these motions that they're filing like ah you know what that wasn't necessary but I want to take these depositions and like you're going to take them these are nonparty w like they're not even like witnesses to the like the incident or like or to a transaction and do you really need to be spending like a hotel like when you fly out because there's a rule of law if you take a an in-person deposition uh in the state of California uh you know basically the rule is that you have to take it within 75 miles of the radius and this is why I represented a couple large companies in 2014 14 and I remember had to go back and forth to the east coast to take these depositions all these witnesses because I couldn't I couldn't bring them over here to California. But there are attorneys that will kind of take advantage of people just you know suffering financially just getting worse and they just know how to trick them and then sometimes they just Yeah, it's kind of manipulative behavior. So that's something that really needs to be addressed too. So that's be my too. Yeah. Oh definitely. And you know the thing with doctors is like you know you know most doctors have have the right mindset. they're actually trying to help people. These are the tools we're given. You know, this is what we're taught. And you know, you get into medical school and you're and you're just there and you're just you're just getting flooded with information and you're just trying to, you know, stay afloat. You know, because there's nothing like truly complex about medicine, you know. It's it's it's all straightforward stuff, you know. It's not like it's not like, you know, crazy, you know, like, oh my god, I just can't get my head around what a liver is, you know? It's like there there you know you can get into the minutiae of the you know the biochemistry and all that sort of stuff but you know and typically in the practical realms of things and what you need to know. Um it's not it's not complicated. There's just a lot of it. There's a ton of it and so you're just trying to stay afloat and you have to be apprised of all this information how to apply it in a practical setting. So there's a complexity in that regard. But you know you're you don't know you don't know what it's like to be a doctor. We don't know what if if you know this is the best way or if there's better alternatives. We just know that you know this medical system that that this is what we're being taught. And so it's not until you sort of get into it and you sort of see this other world other side of it and you're like wait hold on a second there's a bit more here. Um but a lot of a lot of doctors, you know, like the functional medicine doctors you're talking about, they're the ones who've seen that and there's like wait well actually there's there's more here. We don't have to just, you know, patch up, you know, patch up the boat with with with drugs and things like that. we could fix the boat, you know, we could actually, you know, do something proper. And um so most people have that mentality and when they see this, you know, as Dr. Gary Fecki said, you know, once you see this, you can't unsee it. Once you see, you know, the benefits of therapeutic carbohydrate restriction for someone with diabetes that needs to get their foot amputated and now they don't. You you can't unknow that. And then you go into the next situation where someone has a diabetic foot or something like that and you just go, "Hey, look, I know something that can work for this. You know, you don't have to just accept this fate and start getting, you know, body parts cut off, which is a horrible, horrible thing to have to do and go through as a patient. Um, but even as a for a doctor, you know, Gary Fecky was talking about how just awful it was. You know, you're taking off a foot or leg and you just this kunk of like a human body part chunking into a trash can that you have underneath it. It it's just like it's just like chilling. It's just an awesome thing. That's why I do like some of my uh doctor clients and and colleagues uh that hey, you know what? For a very serious infection or condition or especially if it's very inflammatory, have you considered medical grade hyperaric oxygen therapy? I will write you a prescription, but your insurance will probably not cover it, but it's probably worth saving your life. And that's what I did when I was having some skin infections right after like skin ulcerations right after the uh the uh the intestinal surgery. Yeah, I think I told you I developed like a very like one of the most rare skin conditions from so much inflammation that they considered it cancerous. But it's called pyoderma gang grinosum. So derma, you know, skin and then gang grinosum, you know, and you think of people getting green where you're getting these ulcerations on your body and it starts you start off as a bruise and then all of a sudden you could put your fingers inside your body and touch your bones and it gets that bad. Oh god, don't do that. Yeah. So that's why Yeah. But you know what? It's kind of interesting that you're mentioning diabetic ulceration. So um with you know that's the main like a huge proponent of uh amputations for a lot of diabetic patients right is they're developing it's not only just getting bad blood flow it's just yeah you're developing really bad kind of like circulation you're getting inflamed and infected limbs and that's where you like see like yeah you got to you got to cut it off I mean if that in infection kind of spreads over you're going to have like the worst sepsis possible so yeah I actually met a lot of people were actually able to avoid amputation even though they already had it pres-scheduled because they did medical grade hyperbaric oxygen therapy. So I think a lot of functional medicine really needs to be investigated too. I I don't consider a lot of things that come out of functional medicine anything part of pharmaceuticals. Like I'm a huge proponent of peptides. So a lot of my clients over here are functional doctors. They promote peptide therapy. I'm sure you're familiar with like you know Joe Rogan speaks out of it because he's a big fan of it too is like you know BPC 157 is just like you know combination of amino acids when you put them in a certain kind of combination it can like substantially reduce your inflammation uh you know gut and systemic um you know there's other things for like joints and basically you know thyosin beta I mean people for are kind of prone to more infections despite the diet I mean they can consider tyson alpha 1 uh because that's to help to stabilize their immune system you have l3 37 and I actually started looking into more of the neutropics too. So um you know got like studies from Sank and Cax that have been shown to basically you know reverse some some vascular you know some really bad aspects of vascular dementia. They can actually start regaining their memory again. Hey, because I don't like the fact that a judge told me yesterday at mediation I've known her for a long time but I had a 10-hour mediation yesterday when I came back to LA. That's a long thing. And as you said, we're talking about dementia like like so my case was um you know the person the the the person that had a $10 million estate um developed dementia uh like in 2023 but it was 20 2022 and it worsened. It became like you know accelerated dementia, severe dementia in 2023. And at that time he executed all these documents to transfer everything to his new wife. But you know we try to explain that you know oh you know he's he was fine. He knew what he was doing. I'm like, "No." But the judge like, "No, if you have dementia, it only gets worse." Which is more it is somewhat true, but it really depends on how you address it though, too. And I I think that is a huge kind of like cognitive component of the ketogenic diet too and a carnivore diet essentially is to Yeah. I I've realized that I've been so much more functional. I mean, I'm a freaking If you look at my if you look at my my college background, you're going to think I'm a party holic, but if you look at everything from this day, you're like, "You're Yeah. I still exercise every week and I just don't eat a lot of [ __ ] I I have slipped on a little bit more tequila than I wanted to every couple weeks. It's, you know, go to a function, you have a couple shots. So, I'm trying to address that because I do think alcohol is poison. I'm not going to stick up for anyway. Um, but no, I think I think people need to recognize that diet can probably improve our test scores for our children. Did everybody think of that? I mean, does is the Department of Education doing [ __ ] since the 1970s, right? No, it's kind of been plummeting ever since Jimmy Carter. So, I'm so glad we kind of got rid of that. But no, we need to address like a lot of the benefits that you can get and people need to realize that we should all address metabolic health. You know, food is medicine and you won't need a lot of these pharmaceuticals. I think that should really be focused and expanded in not only the medical institutions and you know every kind of hospital they're kind of arranging it for any kind of nurse practitioner or anything but also put it with the AMD put the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics because they would be a subject defendant on a class action lawsuit that I may be taking. So I'm trying to collect a little bit more support. I can't find any other attorneys. I can find a few but a lot of them that don't want to take down the big medical institutions because they support them. Um, maybe it's because I'm I was born and raised in LA County. It's a very liberal state. So, these are the ones that are driving around with a mask on by themselves in their cars and yeah, they're still doing it. You know, four years later, there's, like I said, they're they're probably sleeping with their condoms on. It's those kind of people that I need to get a better team to get with me. I know I already have a good amount of functional doctors that want to do class action lawsuit. I'll do this during my campaign. I don't give a [ __ ] I I'm more than positive I can handle it. So um yeah you because I think there needs to be a focus on okay why is the medical board of California and all these other states teaching this and what is your affiliations with them you know with these pharmaceutical companies and well we're going to be restricting some of their funding and we want to change some of your curriculum but they're not going to want to do that and I think there is some kind of really sinister behavior of that. So I think that needs to be addressed and we you know we need to make changes across the board. I really want to save our farmers. Um, you know, when I came back um from Budapest to United States in 2018, Dr. Sophia Clemens, who I just I'm still speaking with, she was talking about putting me as a case study in her new book. Um, she's like, you know, she we talk the first thing she did, like, hey, if you're going back to the United States, here's a list of farmers that we recommend for you to buy your meat from. And one of those was Yeah. Yeah. No, it was I was so kind of intrigued. I was like, look, you got someone from Hungary telling you which meat farmers to buy from. you go to the United States that they kind of work with those US wellness meets. They're known as gra you know um I think they're based out of Missouri uh and you know getting like bulk amount of tallow from them because it was hard to find tallow at a lot of grocery stores and actually I think they they took out tallow uh during the lockdown. I'm not sure if you remember that you know they took out they they stopped selling tallow at at Whole Foods and Sprouts for like two to three months. Wow. Yeah. They said backward, but they said there there's put they're trying to put restrictions and this is when you have the meat shortages. They put restrictions on basically the production of meat in farms. What I think needs to be addressed in my campaign as well, we need to save the people that put real food on our tables, right? We need to save the farmers. This is why I'm a huge when I when I met Congressman Tom Massie in um at DC inauguration at the Maha Ball, agreed to follow up, so I may go visit him in Kentucky. But um I I just remember that he he made that's why I've already known of him before I even got there is because he's one of the few you know politicians that's speaking out to save our farmers. He was like the first thing he said on stage he's like hey how would how many of you guys like real raw milk and I was like so you would never hear like any politician say that before that and I was so impressed. So good time meeting him. Um but yeah I think we need a balance. I think we need to change a lot of the curriculum in medical schools but also you know you know across the board. I think there needs to be a new way we address health problems. That's gonna be a huge thing. I think we need to put a lot of limitations on Fizer. Um, you know, I don't think all pharmaceuticals are completely bad. There are some that they have a little bit more efficacy just based on the years of research that it could be promoted and they're a lot simpler and they don't have so many damaging side effects. But, um, that should be addressed. And um I also want to basically make sure that all the funding that we're going through and hopefully the Doge keeps finding some more interesting things like like the $50 million of condoms that we sent to Gaza. I don't know the purpose of that but um yeah that's another thing that came up too but um I think there needs to be funds spent on the proper areas and I think we need more people to be outspoken on that. So that's what I really want to make on my campaign. I was fortunate to meet with Dr. kilts a few weeks ago cuz I know you just I think you did a podcast with them like right before I met him by the way too. Um but yeah so he wants I told him that like since I'm mainly running in Las Vegas because I'm a dual residence I have the time and I'm spending most of my time in Vegas um recently and is I want to host the one of the largest meetups but I want to get I don't want to restrict it to the carnivore community. That's going to be the main thing. It's a meetup meat. Okay. Uh so it it you know I I sent you the flyer. We'll cut I think it's on my my campaign website now too. We have a separate page on that too for the the meetup. We're expecting a huge crowd and I'm working with a bunch of like you know farmers. I want to get a bulk amount of meat. You know, buying 400 pounds of meat is going to be very expensive. I'm not sure if you ever done that before, but it's it's especially if you're buying quality meat, too, because you're trying to promote the farmers. Um so, I'm I'm going to I'm using my life savings for this campaign, as you would see. But anybody that uh that promotes and uh fundraises the campaign, it's just going to go back to them because I want to make this event primarily for the carnivores. Uh but I'm also extending it out to the ketogenic community as well as the functional health community and everybody that just wants simply just wants to make America healthy again. So that's why I started working with um uh hypermeric clinics over in Las Vegas. Uh the one that I've been recently going to um that I do is you know especially when I had like to go from California, drive to uh uh Vegas, fly to Austin, Texas to meet with Dr. Keltz is there two days and then fly back to Vegas and then drive back to LA at midnight. And you can see I can like really wear you down, right? So I'm I'm beating myself up, but I'm I'm including hyperbaric oxygen therapy every week. And I go to Desert Moon Wellness and I like them because that's where all the UFC fighters go, too. So you get to see like the Hall of Fame basically on all the UFC fighters that go there. It's like right like you'd be amazed but there's almost all the UFC is like going to this like clinic and treating. But when you think about it how hard they train. Yeah. They're going to get inflamed. They regenerate faster. That's the best thing about hyperbaric oxygen therapy. It's oxygen. It's not like you're inject anything. You're basically you're getting a very like um you know amount of like pressure in a controlled like you know um in a closed environment. But yeah, I've been benefiting that red light therapy. Um, yeah. And I'm actually I think there should be more research on peptide therapy because peptide therapy and stem cells I think should be investigated a little bit more. I know the FDA is putting a lot of restrictions on that, but uh one of our mutual colleagues uh Dr. Sabrina Sult uh from Arizona. So, uh I I told you um right before I went skydiving the first weekend of this year, she uh I think a couple months before right before uh right before the new year, I saw her and uh I said, "Hey, you know, I've been traveling back and forth. my tailbone. It's, you know, I fractured this before. It's just a sensitive thing. You know, if you ever had like a fractured tailbone and if it gets inflamed, it's a pain in the ass, literally. Right. So, it was hard to fly and I was getting the back was tightening out as a result. But, um, yeah, she actually um took out uh my bone, but I didn't have enough fat on me even of so I so she's like, "Look at you. You don't have enough fat. You have to have like a stick of butter on your back. Basically, you have to grab it. It has to be a stick of butter. That's how much fat or atapose you need for an atapost uh derived stem cells. Okay, so the main two stem cells from your own body is from atapost or your bone marrow which is part of your pelvis. I was so impressed I got to promote her because look at been through a lot of painful experiences in my life. Even though I built up tons I know if something's going to be painful but I didn't feel anything. It was perfect. She drilled a huge plunger right into my pelvis, sucked out all the bone marrow and put it through a centrifuge, kind of concentrated to get the stem cells extracted, and then she injected it right in like next to my tailbone and along my like my L4 L5. I felt amazing. Not only did I go sky uh diving right afterwards, I think I did that a little too soon, but I didn't feel anything when I landed because usually even when you brace 10 feet before you land, because I used to do a lot of skydiving, um you always feel that kind of impact on your hips and your joints and everything right when you land, especially if you have to like, you know, uh turn a ball. But I didn't feel anything. I was like, "Holy [ __ ] I think there should be a little bit more focus on functional medicine." So, I do promote Dr. Dr. Sult, too. I was like, I told her, I was like, "Look at you know what? I don't, you know, I don't let needles near anywhere near my ass, but um it's only going to be you if it's if in the future. So, it's all right. Her husband, you know, but it's it's all right. She does good work. And that's why I think the carnivore community is very interesting because I think with niche expansive, we should have people from like every kind of like, you know, every different industry that has the carnivore community. Like, you know, we should get more vetinarians, you know, involved in the carnivore. So, what are you gonna feed your pets, right? Yeah. I told you I feed my French bulldog, you know, Remy, he loves raw beef. So, uh, it's he's thriving. His gut and his bowel movements are like so much better. He's not getting any itchy rashes. So, yeah, I think I think there should be a really huge focus on the health moving forward. I'm really hoping we can do that. And I really want everybody to go to uh and including you if you can make it. Um, you'll get a special you'll be a special guest speaker if you can make it. But, um, yeah, it's going to be July 19th. And Dr. Hilts is actually helping me promote it because he asked me to host it and, uh, uh, he's going to be, uh, one of the, uh, co co-promoters basically. So, museum in the Yeah. Well, if if I'm if I'm around then, yeah, I'd love to. And um I definitely help help promote it as well. Um Chris, I know that you have another meeting coming up in a few minutes, but you Yeah, we we touched on a few things about um about the different things that you wanted to affect when you went into Congress, but you know, you know, just to you know, just to sort of get that in one place, what are what are the what are the things that you're hoping to achieve by running for Congress? Running for Congress, I think I need to be I think there's a lot of voices that need to be heard at higher levels. And I addressed this at your uh was it ketocon or um what was the one that you had in Texas last year and you spoke with Bella Dr. Kels Baker. Oh, that's keto your health or something. Hack your health, right? Um, you know what? I actually posed a question. I don't think you if you remember, but I think like a couple people answered, but know I I don't you didn't address the question, but I think a couple other people addressed it, but I asked like, you know, how do you think we can improve the health, you know, basically by, you know, if we can get if we try to do this at a congressional level, like how can we? And then they're like, "Oh, just word of mouth." And that was the only thing like you tell this. I'm like, "Yeah, but the the people need to recognize and this is what my strong belief is that the people at the congressional levels have so much more power and influence over the people especially because you're going to be, you know, you're going to be looking at people that are running your country on telling you what to do." And I think there needs to be a little bit more promotion at that level. And if I'm telling that everybody that we need to readress, you know, our public health at a national level and also addressing some of the, you know, the balance of our equities and putting our money where it should be going to not only kind of health, but your proper forms of education, but also I think a lot of people I really want a lot more subsidies to American meat farmers. These are people that put real food on your tables. I met with these meat farmers. I'm actually going to be they're going to be at Meat Talk with me on uh in um in Tennessee in May. But yeah, I think they should be a lot more focused and I think there should be more government grants going over to them basically to hey, you're putting because I I I like the fact that gas prices are going down a little bit, but have you seen the prices of meat in the last like four years skyrocket? It was just amazing. I think we need to make it more affordable because that should be the primary thing on everybody's plate. So that's going to be one of my huge components. And then my other thing is my my concern with um schooling. So, um I I can't make this too political, but my um they're installing my nephew with a brother that I really respect. Um we found out that they're installing tampon machines in the boys' restrooms. And these kids are like 10 or 11 years old. So, I think that is a merry moral issue. And I didn't like the fact that not only trying to take him, but they're trying to take a lot of my friends kids over in Long Beach Unified. they're taking kids to drag shows um without the parent consent. And I I'm really worried about uh the mental health of our kids. So, in addition to addressing their physical health, I think their mental health needs to be addressed, too. I think we need to have good true traditional values. Um and I think that should be a huge concern for our kids going forward. So, um that's a that's one of the the major issues. I know I'm going to get a lot of backlash because everyone's like, "Oh, you're just you're transphobic." I'm like, "No." Uh there's only two genders. you shouldn't be confusing the kids at this early age. You're really screwed up with their development and you can see that the mental health of the kids completely plummeted for the past I'll say a couple decades at least. Well, the thing is too is that you know doing it without the parent um you know not only their consent but their knowledge. I mean that that's out of bounds. You know if you want to raise your kids any way you want that's your business as long as you're not hurting them but um you know u but taking that that um say out of the parents hands I think that's that's criminal. you know, you don't you don't get to do that. I mean, you know, there I mean, there were there were kids in my class, you know, when I was growing up that they they their parents didn't want them to be part of sex ed. They didn't want them doing that. Well, was part of the curriculum. Yeah. Well, I don't want that. Fine. Okay. So, kids got out of that. They had a say. Parents had a say in in what happened. And um now they're saying, "No, parents aren't allowed to do that." At least in certain areas. some places they do still have have a say but you know you obviously um there there are cases where they are sort of doing this without the parents permission or knowledge and that's not okay if the if the parents are okay with that and they want that to happen you know that's one thing but when you take the choice away from the parent uh that's that's the problem for sure I think just in general um I'm very outspoken I don't mind threats but I think we need I think we need myself and a lot of other people too I need we need really strong men and women to carry this country forward and I don't think we could ever make up for the past, but we need a positive movement forward. So, that's what I'm willing to do. Yep. Very good. Well, Chris, thank you so much for that. Um, this has been with Chris Branland, the carnivore carnivore lawyer, who's hopefully going to be the carnivore congressman and uh will be running in Nevada. What What district are you running in? Third district of Nevada. And uh you can find all the information on my campaign as well um as the meetup if you go to chrisbrlin.com. So uh you'll get the spell in my last name. But um and we'll have a link on that for the Las Vegas meetup. And we're just asking people to uh to basically sign up just to get information because I want to make sure I get a good headcount because I want to make sure if I have to spend a little extra money because I'm going to make this very affordable because a lot of people are telling me that they don't want to travel to a lot of these function events. They're restricted money. I'm going to make this the most affordable meetup and I'm actually going to be taking uh eating most of the funds myself. Taking the brunt on that. Yeah. So, I'm going to take it, but I think I'm going to get good karma at the end. So, I'm willing to pay a lot of my finances towards it personally to make it better. So, that's good. Well, that's uh what's really appreciated and um I'm definitely happy to to help promote that as well. Uh Chris, thank you so much for coming on. It's great to see, you know, people like yourself that, you know, think that, you know, they they've got something some way that they can help um the community and the society as opposed to just trying to to to benefit themselves. So, really glad to see um and that's the thing you're saying, you're spending your life savings on this. It's not like, you know, you're you're trying to do this to to cash out. You're trying to do this because, you know, you think this is something that is important to do. My estate value will go down. I'll promise that and I'll substantiate it, too. What will go down? Sorry. that my my overall estate value basically. I got I got stocks and all this everything, but I got different investments in different states, but I'm telling you right now, I'm selling them off to pay for this. So, I already know it's going to go down, but I I feel it's going to be worth it at the end. So, that's what I'm praying for. Well, well, good for you, man. And good for you for for, you know, stepping up and and uh trying to make a difference. So, we appreciate that. Um Chris, pleasure to see you again, and uh good luck in the election. I'm sure we'll we'll talk again soon. All right, thanks a lot, Anthony. Thanks, man. And thank you everyone uh for joining. Please do go to uh Chris's website and join us in Las Vegas for the meet up in July. I will do my best to to be there as well. And either way, there'll be a lot of great people there.
