Is this you? Yeah. Look at you. Oh, that's me with Peter. Were you on Dancing with the Stars? Yeah. Oh, shit. How hard was that to do? Oh, it was incredible. Look at you. You're carrying or everything. What the hell is going on here? Good Lord. What are you saying to her there? We did it. We did it. We did it. Wow. You got Randy Coteur crying. I got a kid. Looks like Randy was crying. What's his name? Kevin Hart. Kevin Hart was the judge. Yeah. He gave me a 10. Oh, that's amazing. The only 10 I got. Look at, look at, she had to carry me off there. Wow. Oh, man. That tore my butt up, man. I imagine literally serious fucking training for that. I came off, that was rectal cancer. Whoa. Yeah. I found out on that show. Wow. You don't think you got it from Dancing? I think I got it from, Noah was smoking and the stress. From no smoking weed? No smoking weed. I quit smoking weed during the show. Why'd you do that? I thought it would help me with my. Coordination or something? Well, with my being there. Concentration? Listening. Yeah. Because. It's hard to learn things when you're stoned sometimes. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. Most people agree that it's not a good idea to smoke pot when you're learning skills, but it's a good idea to smoke pot when you have the skills. Yeah. Yeah. It'll calm you down. Yeah. When you roll and you already know what to do, it's like instinctive, then you can smoke some pot. Yeah. But like learning, like if someone shows me a new move and I'm high, I can't even figure out where the body's going. I'm like, wait a minute, where's your arm? Like what is, how am I doing this? You get too high. And then what am I doing? You get baffled. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's the same as Tango Well. So you really think that that happened to you because of that? See, I had prostate cancer and it was a kind of prostate. It was so slow acting. The lazy ass doctor said, well, we won't do it. We'll just leave it alone and you'll probably die of something else before that happens. And so that was his attitude? That was their attitude. Jesus Christ. Yeah. It happens all the time, you know, because, you know, prostate can be very slow and I had a slow one. But I had a biopsy when I had to find out because I was going to do the growth hormone and that's why I checked out my blood to make sure, you know, I didn't have cancer. I found out I had prostate cancer, but they did a biopsy. And I think that could have done it. You know, the biopsy, they can take a piece of your... So you think that taking a biopsy could have caused damage, which could have led to cancer? Could have caused the cancer cell to hit the rectum the way it did. And so I got a bag now. I got a colossemy bag, you know, so. But now I'm totally healed now and I'm good to go, you know. The only thing... And so I don't know if it was the lack of weed and the stress and the fact that I had prostate, you know. So when they fixed the rectal, and I got one of the best doctors, Kajandian. What did they have to do? They had to operate. They had to change the plumbing from the back to the front. That's the colossemy bag. So I have no more rectum. Wow. So I'm a virgin again. I'm kidding. And then you put the bag around to the front and that's all they did there. But what they did, they swept the prostate clean with radiation. They said, we're down there anyway, so we might as well do their prostate too. So they fixed the prostate. And thank God I never had it taken out because now I got the sleeping giant as a woke again. Sleeping giant? Yeah. I woke the sleeping giant up. I think it was the weed that did it too, plus my gorgeous wife. But yeah, I started getting these urges and I thought, oh, what's happening here? And I'm doing testosterone. That's probably what did it. Yeah, the testosterone. And then I'm going in for a shot tomorrow. It's a new procedure that they use apparently to help induce labor because it's all about blood flow down there. And so it's going to induce. I tried pills. I tried Viagra. It doesn't work enough. And so I'm going in tomorrow for an injection of some help to blood flow to help the giant get a little more awake.
