Science Vs. Advocacy, Omicron, & More (w/ Dr. Peter Attia & Dr. Marty Makary)

Have you had a profound glimpse of awakening/enlightenment but you're afraid to dive deeper (or you don't know how)? Here's a direct guide to further exploring your true nature.

Links to Angelo's book (Awake, It's Your Turn), his YouTube channel, a full transcript and video podcast, and more episodes in our Awakening, Explained series: https://zdoggmd.com/awakening-doubt

00:00 Intro
00:16 Could you have had an awakening and not know what it was? What is awakening, presence/consciousness, the role of distorting thought reflections.
8:14 Lacking a context in which to place “awakening” experiences or foretastes
9:48 The role of faith, doubt mass, and determination in enlightenment/awakening/realization. Distinguishing faith from “belief.”
17:11 The deep dissatisfaction and suffering (dukkah) that can light a fire to seek authentic, living truth
25:25 Can people with “good” lives and success wake up? The role of brutal honestly and authenticity in self-realization
26:15 Medical professionals, “successful” people and the threat to identity that awakening might represent, the role of surrender and authenticity
28:06 If you start down the path, DON’T STOP (here’s why), dealing with frustration and roadblocks
34:03 The crucial importance of the present moment (rather than thought or stories ABOUT presence), the mind’s time-based hypnosis
37:00 The difference between “experience” and “realization” and the loosening of thought-based identity structures
47:00 Non-duality (no subject-object distinction, just experiencing itself)
49:45 Suffering is the entry point, the role of retreat and surrender

When In-Laws Are More Dangerous Than Chocolate Cake (w/Dr. Ron Sinha)

Just walking up to the unit gotta take call
I don’t know but today seems kinda off
No bleeding from the butt, no scut
And nurses threw a potluck with donuts 

I got my notes done, but couldn’t log out
Tech support showed up and actually helped a Dogg out

No pages for Colace coming from the flo’
And Ortho took a patient on ECMO!

I caughta nap cause I got me the dope spot
And if I hit the switch, I can make the phone stop

Had to drop by tha’ med rounds
Sniffing in the air and not a single code brown
No c. diff on the gown
And all my patients agree that Dr. Oz is a clown

Rolled down ta ED and I’m askin’ yall
Which fools are y’all tryin’ ta pass along?

But no naked drunks twerkin’, had to check my pager twice just to see if it’s workin’

There was no ODs, no DTs, and everybody rates they pain in the 3’s

EMR went down nurse taking verbals, and no KUB showed a gerbil

Plus all cultures came back pan sensitive to Pen VK, today was a good day

Paged pharmacy with the query
Obscure med, still said it’s formulary

Cause just yesterday JCAHO tried to blast me
Saw the bounceback, but he rolled right past me

Keflexin’, wound clean and dry to a brother’s inspection, margins clear on frozen section

Hit employee health, and though I’m sprayed daily by TB
Still a neg PPD!



Send ‘em out, send em’ out, social work mission
Teaming with the PT and OT on disposition
Of bed 7, and bed 11, bed 27, case manager’s straight on a role
I picked up the cath flow
Hit the team room, cause I’m smellin’ Dominos

Plus that patient talkin’ smack at my nurses just left AMA, today was a good day

Billin’ tryin’ to get paid
Won’t stress the codes cause ICD-10’s delayed

It’s ironic, nobody’s illnesses are chronic
The lasix pee is supersonic

I felt on the big fat foley
Bag full o’ gold pee, urine clear as Stoli

Cause my foley runs deep, so deep, 
RT had to crank the peep

Talked a psych patient off the ledge
Radiology actually gave an answer with no hedge

Even saw the likes of some intern wimps
And they said, “ZDogg can PIMP.”

Chemo’s goin’, but no throwin’ up
Half way home, and my pager ain’t blowin’ up

Today I didn’t even have to use my PA...I gotta say it was a good day.

It Was A Good Call Day

This podcast will melt your brain, which could be OK because neurons are just symbolic representations of a deeper reality according to our guest, Professor Donald Hoffman: http://www.cogsci.uci.edu/~ddhoff/

In this wide-ranging discussion we talk about visual perception (and ALL perception) as a construction, rather than a reconstruction, and we dive into free will, synesthesia, split brain experiments, consciousness as the fundamental currency of reality, simulation theory, "conscious realism" as a theory, and much more.

What If We're Wrong About Reality? w/Donald Hoffman

A tribute to nurses and Billy Joel's original "Always A Woman To Me" 

Lyrics:

She can cure with a smile, she can heal with her hands
And she can ruin your high with 0.2 of Narcan
And she only sips Snapple where JCAHO can’t see
She’s wise like a doc but she’s always a nurse to me
She can lead you to vax, she can calm you and teach you
She can ask for your med list but she’ll never believe you
And she’s got a side hustle loan interest ain’t free
Steal your pen like a thief but she’s always a nurse to me
No, she can’t care for herself, understaffing for months
She’s again overtime
Oh, and she never takes breaks and she never pees once
She just changes bed 9
And his patients want more than the Garden of Eden
And they still call him doc when he said he’s Nurse Stephen
Still he brings out the best a caregiver can be
Blame it all on yourself, a nurse ain’t always a woman, you see



Oh, they take care of you well, despite one nurse to nine,
Their license on the line
Oh, and she never gives out and he never calls in
They just coded bed 9
She is caring and kind when you’re suddenly cruel
He can smile and stay calm while you act like a tool
And unlike that Gwyneth, she’s earned her degree
And you love what you do although praises are few
Yet you’re always a hero to me

Always A Nurse

Antivaxxers Hate Him...And He's a Hero (w/Dr. Richard Pan)

Can AI open new portals into consciousness and create new awarenesses? Why does the universe seem to have limited resources? What happens when we die? ARE WE LIVING IN THE MATRIX?

We have no clue how consciousness emerges from 3 pounds of wet goo. Cognitive scientist Don Hoffman takes us deep into his research suggesting we're attacking the problem backwards. The implications of his theories just may change everything you think you know about reality and our place in it. Take the Red Pill and see how deep the rabbit hole goes...

In this extended interview we dive into the Interface Theory of Perception (how evolution hides the truth about reality in favor of a dumbed down user interface that only shows us "fitness" payoffs that help us survive), the "Hard Problem of Consciousness" and how we simply have no idea how consciousness could emerge from physical matter, the theory of Conscious Realism (how reality is really a social network of conscious "agents" and our perceptions are simply the interface by which we exchange experience with other agents), the math behind conscious agent theory, implications  for artificial intelligence (AI), psychedelics, spirituality, and much much more.

The Case Against Reality (w/Prof. Donald Hoffman)

Viral video outbreak coming soon!

Lyrics:

Ooh, my little Wuhan one, viral one
Coming to congest my lungs, ay Corona
Zoo-o-notic transmission …where’s it from?
Bats or civet cats who knows why, Corona?

When’s it gonna stop, fever cough, wash your dirty hands
Why’d I ever stop in Hubei for vacation, man?
Why Why Why Why AHHH CHOOO

M-m-m-my Corona

Don’t you come no closer, huh, no closer bruh
Unless you got an N95, Corona
Got a travel history, I’m quarantined
Should’ve just quit touching my eyes, Corona

Never getting off, stuck onboard such a dirty boat
But why you hoarding masks when you live in Alaska tho?

Why ey ey ey ey NO
M m m my Corona
M m m my Corona

When’s it gonna get to me, get to me
You killed the doc that called you out, why Corona?
Internet conspiracy, COVID-19
Is it just a pack of communist lies, Corona?

Never gonna stop, media, such a dirty game
Cuz no one gets the shot for the flu but it’s just as lame
Why Why Why Why A Choo
*coughing*

My Corona (A Viral "My Sharona" Parody)

There's been a lot of panic with stories of people getting COVID-19 twice and rapidly plummeting antibody levels. But there may be a real bright spot here.

COVID Immunity Doesn't Last...Except That It Does

Rely on scary headlines...or science the crap out of it? Yeah you know how WE do it 🤓 

What mutations mean, how they come about, how they affect the spread and fatality of the coronavirus, what's going on in the UK that provoked so much panic, how mutations affect vaccine efficacy, and what we need to do about it NOW.
