From BodyODD:

From Weird Medicine (Excerpted for the Patrice Tribute this weekend on Sirius 206, XM105):

“As I write this, I just got word that Patrice O’Neal has passed away.

I met Patrice at Opie’s wedding and the first thing I noticed about him was just what a sweet guy he was.   ‘Sure Doctor Steve, I’ll do your little show’…I always thought we had all the time in the world to have that conversation on the air about Diabetes and being in show business.  Lesson learned.

Patrice was a big hearted guy;  Chest Pain Rob reminded me today that when O&A had that mentally handicapped guy who worked at McDonalds on the air and they pretended to be McDonald’s executives and fired him on the air, it was Patrice who begged them to call him back and let him know it was a joke.  He just couldn’t stand some little guy in Podunk thinking he lost his job, even for the few minutes it would take for him to figure it out.

Patrice lived life on his own terms and then he checked out.   He was one of the funniest and best loved people who ever crossed the airways on Sirius XM.  Weird Medicine salutes the memory of Patrice O’Neal, what he stood for, and we will sorely miss him.”

Patrice’s care was insanely expensive;  if you’d like to help Patrice’s wife and daughter, please consider buying the Audible.com 16 hour special produced by Erik Nagel from the Opie and Anthony show, or by buying Patrice’s last CD “Mister P” from Amazon or iTunes.

We did two very strong Weird Medicine shows for SiriusXM and then we did this thing.

Tonight’s topics:

1) medical marijuana

2) Brian from the Radio Freaks with his ridiculous guest list

3) electronic cigarettes

4) hemorrhoids after weight loss

5) assplay

6) fish oil and smelly nether regions

7) asthma inhalers: bane or blessing?

And some other shenanigans. Don’t miss us on Stitcher. The best app in the world for talk radio and podcasts.

Don’t forget to buy the Weird Medicine Bristol Stool Scale Mug at cafepress.com!  Here’s what it looks like:

Makes a great "white elephant" gift!

See you next week!

your pal,

Dr Steve

PS: we’re ready to start accepting ads for the podcast;  we get about 10K downloads for each show, so if you are interested in advertising and are not afraid of our content, write me at weirdmedicinexm@gmail.com and we”ll talk!

Well, we made the mistake of going to a Beer Fest and carried the party to the house afterward.  Then someone said “hey!  Let’s do a show!”  See if you can tell whether some people (certainly not me) were impaired during the taping of this podcast.

Tonight’s topics:

1) Supraluminal Neutrinos
2) Breast Reduction Surgery
3) The connection between your belly button and your genitals
4) The causes of dry mouth
5) A guy bleeding from both ends
6) e cigarettes and smoking cessation
7) Weird Chantix Dreams

and a bunch of other malarkey.

We were featured in the Stitcher.com weekly newsletter this week and this is the best we could do?  Doomed.

Don’t forget to check us out on your smart phone on Stitcher (the greatest talk radio app ever) and iTunes (a close second).  Also, don’t miss the Dr Steve BRISTOL STOOL SCALE MUG at Cafepress!  It’s a “hoot” I tell ya!

Dr Steve

We did this podcast after recording 2 hours of SiriusXM shows…we tweeted for a couple of hours and ended up with one of the most interactive shows we’ve had since we started doing the live Addendum shows.

Topics:

Barbara Eden: I’d still “Do” her
Low back pain
Post Vaccine Neuropathy
Some other crap I don’t remember but it was pretty good

Someday I’ll get organized…as soon as the show is over I forget everything that we did.  I remember this one as being a fun show;  I hope you think so too.

your pal,

Dr Steve

We’re taking a break from Podcasting this week, but I found a gem from the vaults I thought you might be interested in hearing.

When we first started doing the “Addendum”, we did it to answer the crapload of email questions we got from listeners during the “live” shows at the XM Studios.  We’d get home from NYC to find our inboxes stuffed with questions we never got to on the air.   So we did a podcast or two to answer them all and then would forget about it until the next live show.

At one point, I asked Erik Nagel (aka eRock, sex bagel) if he’d be interested in running the “Addendum” on XM (this was way before Sirius came into the picture).  The next thing I knew we were doing a weekly show.

Although I’ll post the original Addendum (with PA John and PA Jill) again here eventually, I found this show, which is the first appearance of “Double Vasectomy Todd” a patient of mine who over the years became a close friend.  Sorry, it’s a low bit rate recording.  We’re more advanced technologically, now.

Here’s the blurb I posted when this show first aired:

“Wherein the boys greet “Double Vasectomy Todd” for the first time, save the life of a colonoscopy victim, ride the euphemism treadmill, play the nostalgia game with doctor steve’s college radio show clips, learn finally how being fat can save your life, deconstruct anabolic steroids, and beatify the noble bidet.  Not a bad hour for a moron, an imbecile, and an idiot.”

Have a great holiday weekend;  we’ll do a LIVE Ustream podcast (probably) at 9pm on Sept 13.

your pal,

Steve

This show introduces “Mister E, The MysteryMan of Mystery” as well as the return of “Doctor K” who is a hot, breast augmented medical professional.

If you have a smart phone, don’t forget to check us out on Stitcher and iTunes and in case you want to rate your stools while you’re drinking your morning coffee, pick up a Bristol Stool Scale mug from CafePress!

See you in a week or so!

your pal,

Dr Steve

This is the summer “all grrrl review” wherein we invite the women in our lives into the studio to talk about whatever pisses them off about us.  On this show:

• Breast Augmentation
• Breast Reduction
• Epididymitis
• Smelly Umbilicus (belly button)
• and some other crap

Enjoy!

Don’t forget to check us out on Stitcher (talk radio for your smart phone) and iTunes!  Also check out our merchandise, and buy stuff we talk about on the show at the Weird Medicine Drug store.

In an attempt to get control of our RSS feed, we’re moving everyone from the old feed to:

feeds.feedburner.com/doctorsteve/ZPQj

The reasons for this are complicated, but suffice it to say that a certain webpage producer lost the password to our old feed and we may have thousands of people following that feed without any documentation of it.  This will ultimately affect our ability to sell advertising on the Weird Medicine Addendum Podcast and keep new content on the feed.  If you are getting this message through an RSS feed, email update, google reader, whatever, please click the link above and switch over to this new feed.  In the end we may have to just start anew at weirdmedicine.com;  when all this started we had no idea that feeds and iTunes stats and stuff would be so important.

Thanks for your help!  Also, we’re doing a new “girly show” (my wife’s term) tomorrow night with lots of talk about plastic surgery and breast implants and more breast talk and lots of talk and thinking about breasts and also breasts.  It’ll air sometime in September and if we have time we’ll do a quick spur-of-the-moment podcast so stay tuned.

your pal,

Dr Steve

Some media capture systems can’t figure out how to work a post with two audio files attached.  If you’re on one of those services (e.g., Stitcher) here is part 2.
