and you're blocking the TV.
2
What's up?
3
Open your mouth! So creepy.
4
Patient doctor confidentiality, space cancer, and it's not a tumor.
5
It's not a tumor.
6
Today, we are back at it, breaking down and reacting to the concerning medical scenes and futuristic injuries from Rick and Morty.
7
Let's dive right in.
8
Oh, hi, Dr. Hot Penis.
9
Wait, what, Dr. Who?
10
Dr. Who.
11
He's using an alias and he chose that as his alias.
12
Oh my gosh.
13
There are unique names out there.
14
You literally can change your name to anything.
15
It's okay.
16
This alien boy has space cancer and his dying wish is to see deader people so he can feel superior.
17
That's awful.
18
That's awful.
19
You can't really do that with a hospital.
20
It's HIPAA violations.
21
It's people's private medical information.
22
Only family members and people who are authorized to be there could actually show up to hospitals and visit people.
23
All you had to say.
24
Check it out.
25
They're in a morgue.
26
You've actually never been into the morgue in the hospital, but the morgue is where you were temporarily keeping patients
27
that have died and are waiting to be picked up by family members or released to a funeral home, whatever the thereafter plan is.
28
Car crash.
29
Oh!
30
There's an odor, a smell to it.
31
You can be in these environments for a long period of time because you get something called olfactory fatigue,
32
where over time, your senses of that noxious smell actually has calmed down, so it doesn't smell as pungent and odiferous to you.
33
Oh, wait, I don't, wait, what is that smell?
34
You know goddamn well what it is, baby.
35
Get in here.
36
Oh, don't do that.
37
Oh my gosh.
38
Cannibalism is not an appropriate thing.
39
It's not good for our bodies.
40
Humans live a long time, harbor more disease.
41
Eating another human could actually cause us more problems.
42
There's a lot of medical issues related to that.
43
You've been doing it for weeks, every spaghetti night.
44
Come on, Morty.
45
Choo-choo plane.
46
Come on.
47
Goddamn.
48
Telling you.
49
Why?
50
How?
51
Cortisol increases the starch content in their bloodstream.
52
Starch is when we refer to it as type of like a carbohydrate, AKA sugar.
53
Sugar.
54
Cortisol, stress hormone, then increasing the release of sugars in our body to give us energy.
55
Thus, that's what he's describing.
56
Changing their intestines into one long spaghetti noodle
57
and the surrounding tissues into a spicy sweet hematoma that we would call a Bolognese.
58
A hematoma is like a blood clot.
59
I don't know if you guys have ever had an Italian dinner night.
60
My family used to do that when I was younger.
61
Spaghetti is good, but it's heavy carbohydrates.
62
And so it's a treat more than everyday Kurtz.
63
But it takes a lot of cortisol.
64
You don't want to be having your cortisol chronically elevated because it actually over time wreaks havoc on our body, stressed and always in overdrive, and you don't want that.
65
I'm calling the police.
66
Before you do that, just...
67
No, Rick, stop!
68
What?
69
Where am I?
70
In a morgue, eating bodies. Where what?
71
Stop using that thing.
72
What thing?
73
Who are we?
74
We were just leaving.
75
All you had to say.
76
That device looks like the device from Men in Black, where you basically forget things.
77
Yo, Summer, get over here and meet the team captain.
78
Oh, interesting.
79
Interesting.
80
You're embarrassing yourself.
81
Leave, or I will make you leave.
82
Just let me borrow it for a second, then I'll go.
83
What do you even want it for, you parasite?
84
I wanna be ripped and take my shirt off in front of Trisha.
85
Being ripped, people have been trying to do it forever.
86
It's basically a simple formula of good diet, good rest, and exercise.
87
Go, Sam, Crusader!
88
Not so strong now, huh?
89
Oh my gosh, look at that.
90
Ha ha ha!
91
Almost reminds me of like Mega Mind, massive brain.
92
The brain wouldn't necessarily get that big because the skull is a confined space of hard bone.
93
If the brain swelled that much, it would actually start causing pressure on itself and try to squeeze out.
94
Oh, we're going to the pool, oh geez.
95
What the?
96
Okay, she's back to normal.
97
Oh, babe, you're mine!
98
What the heck?
99
What the hell is going on here?
100
How did they fuse together into the abdomen?
101
What the heck?
102
You're blocking the TV.
103
What's up?
104
Open your mind. So creepy.
105
This is Aquato from Total Recall.
106
They're basically the crown jewel of psychic mutants.
107
Yeah, everyone knows but me.
108
They f*ing shamed me for it.
109
Oh, interesting.
110
I'm seeing a super cool image.
111
So it's almost like an x-ray, but not.
112
Not.
113
You wouldn't see the soft tissue relating to the brain on an x-ray, you would just see soft tissue, air, and bone.
114
Your spines are braided?
115
Christ, what a mess.
116
You need to fix this, Grandpa.
117
Super cool.
118
People have been born as conjoined twins where they need to separate the individuals, but you have to be careful because of shared organs.
119
Is that possible to separate, or do they have to stay together because they wouldn't survive one without the other?
120
Whoa, bullet blowing off the side of the face, missing the teeth, but could that happen?
121
Yes, you can actually have a significant amount of soft tissue injury to that area.
122
Obviously, if that happens to somebody, depress the area, get to the hospital.
123
You just need a significant amount of plastic surgery.
124
Oh my gosh, a nosebleed.
125
Sometimes the blood could actually get caught up and actually start going back into the eye.
126
Basically a duct that things can go both directions
127
so you can actually have blood go back the other way if you have nose bleeding and you have bloody tears.
128
Whoa.
129
The leg that's causing muscle contraction.
130
So we do have devices that you can cause electrical stimulation to different muscles and nerves when implemented.
131
So that's not too far fetched.
132
Oh my gosh!
133
A strength to just pull and rip somebody's leg off.
134
Mid-femur, no. I've seen mid-femur amputations due to massive amount of force,
135
like car accidents, but not just grabbing it and ripping it off.
136
Why don't you have a seat?
137
Because this isn't a therapy session, I'm just asking you what people in your racket say about handling this particular situation.
138
It's a little bit demeaning and inappropriate.
139
I'm assuming this is a psychiatrist versus a psychologist.
140
A psychiatrist is a doctor that went to medical school and is a doctor of psychiatric medicine versus a psychologist,
141
typically somebody who has a master's degree or a PhD.
142
First, we'd want you to define the situation.
143
I'm a walking target for a never ending sea of angry nerds
144
that think getting in a fight with me is some kind of, I don't know, platform.
145
I mean, look at this guy.
146
This is like real life trolling, bullying, those sorts of things.
147
Obviously, like me, the YouTube channel, we get people who write comments that are positive, that are negative, that are trolling.
148
You think locking this man in a chamber and milking him of cosmic fluid will somehow resolve this?
149
I think it's the best I can do to profit from a situation and maybe set an example.
150
It's not changing your situation.
151
Yeah, yeah, yeah, now you're gonna tell me to ignore them, but guess what?
152
They want that too.
153
When people are actually getting bullied or harassed, they feel like they're the only ones that are going through it.
154
Everybody has moments where it does happen, but it's really good to talk to somebody, just like Rick is talking to, who appears to be a therapist here.
155
Is that man dead?
156
Is everything in here confidential?
157
Everything but murder then he's fine.
158
Patient, doctor, privilege, confidentiality.
159
Pretty much everything is confidential.
160
Mine is if you plan on doing harm to yourself or harm to others.
161
We've done Rick and Morty a few times, but this one was very entertaining.
162
I enjoyed it.
163
There was a lot of medical stuff going on, a little kind of shenanigans as well.
164
Also, I made fast acting health supplements with you in mind.
165
No matter what the issue, I got you covered.
166
Check out Life Happens.
167
You take them only when you need them.

Why Practice Speaking with This Video?
This video is a goldmine for english speaking practice because it blends casual dialogue with technical medical terms, mirroring real-life conversations where you might switch between everyday chat and specific topics. The fast-paced, conversational tone—think Rick’s sarcasm and Morty’s reactions—trains your ear to follow natural speech rhythms, making it perfect for shadow speech. By mimicking the ER doctor’s explanations and the characters’ banter, you’ll build fluency in both informal and semi-formal contexts, all while learning fun, memorable phrases.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
- “You can’t really do that with a hospital. It’s HIPAA violations.” This uses the present simple for general rules and a shortened “it’s” for casual emphasis—key for sounding natural. Practice replacing “HIPAA violations” with other issues (e.g., “fire codes”) to master the structure.
- “Eating another human could actually cause us more problems.” The modal verb “could” here softens a strong statement, a common tactic in discussions. Use this pattern to suggest consequences: “Skipping breakfast could lower your energy.”
- “Stressed and always in overdrive, and you don’t want that.” A participial phrase (“Stressed…”) replaces a full clause, making speech concise. Try it: “Tired from work, I skipped the gym.”
Common Pronunciation Traps
Mastering tricky words here will boost your improve english pronunciation goals. For example, “hematoma” (heh-muh-TOH-muh) has a stress on the third syllable—many learners misplace it on the second. “Cortisol” (KOR-tuh-sol) often gets a “kaw” sound instead of “kor”—listen closely to the doctor’s clarity. Also, the contraction “it’s” vs. the possessive “its” is critical: in “it’s a blood clot,” “it’s” is short for “it is,” not “belonging to it.” Use shadowspeak to repeat these words until they flow naturally, focusing on stress and rhythm.
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
