First of all, what's your last name? Hillbrand. United 27, fly-maintained, 1-5 No, he's doing it. He's talking to the people in
Speaker 3
the cab. 1-5 United 27. Oh, that's, yeah, very good. Okay. Thank you. Yeah, Drew, go ahead. No,
Speaker 2
go ahead. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3
I screwed up. Yeah, Lazy and Lazy and Lazy and Lazy. I used to use countums for years. No issues. Wife had always been on the birth control pill. Decided to take her off it for increased sex drive, better orgasms, et cetera. Overall, happier, positive outlook on life is what she's got. Now I've got a weird part of my Johnson with bumps on it. On the end of it, I think I have a latex allergy. Dr. Drew, what's the best option that won't sacrifice those positive effects of taking her off the birth control pill? Okay,
Speaker 2
one thing. One thing. I need the wind and direction. Yeah,
Speaker 3
I've got a pretty good tailwind on our way to... No, no,
Speaker 2
landing. Landing. I'll let him finish. Why do they give the wind at landing to the passengers every fucking time they go on the speed? Because they give the weather. But they give the wind at landing. Why do you think the passengers care about the wind when you're landing?
Speaker 3
Pretty
Speaker 2
good wind out of the east.
Speaker 3
It's
Speaker 2
not. You've got to give it not. Okay. Here's the other, Charlie. You wouldn't suddenly develop a latex allergy. Have you been using them for a while? You
Speaker 3
know, since I was 17.
Speaker 2
Yeah. So, no, no. You don't suddenly develop latex allergies, really. I mean, it's possible, but unlikely. It's more that you just wonder if it's some sort of, like, a mechanical problem. Have you tried the polyurethane condoms, or have you tried the so-called animal skin, natural skin? I have not. When you write that down, polyurethane. There's three different kinds out there. There's latex, there's natural skin, they'll call them, which is actually probably what you ought to get, and then the latex. And good on you for understanding that birth control pill does affect your wife's sex drive, lubrication, mood, and orgasmic function. It can affect all that. It's
Speaker 3
been monumental. Getting her off of it was a huge change in her life and thereby ours. But here's another thing. You said it might be mechanical. I have experimented with, like, cog pumps or stuff like that that, you know, increase vascularity or whatever you'd call it, blood flow, and that might be what caused you those bumps.
