- A lot of you have been asking me
what I've been up to lately, so here's a quick update,
as well as some behind the scenes of my latest LA trip.
Boom!
Bow-wop! (laughing)
(upbeat pop music)
- [Radio Announcer] We have a very special guest.
A very good looking
and a very smart guest, Doctor Mike.
You might know him from Instagram.
He has 2.5 million followers.
- Thank you.
- Why is hot water better and why is a cold shower better?
- Warm water is better because cold water
shunts blood away from your stomach,
so you don't absorb it as readily.
- You're very knowledgeable, very visually appealing,
and we really appreciate you being here.
- Thank you so much. - All right.

- While I was in LA, I was able to catch
up with some of my old friends.
In fact, my buddy Marco, he was there at the same time
on a business venture.
We were able to catch up.
He introduced me to his adorable dog, Titan.

In 2015, during my little viral moment of fame,
the first nationally syndicated TV show
that invited me on was The Doctors Show
and they invited me on, obviously,
as "Instagram's sexiest doctor" as a guest.
(crowd cheers)
And it was a really great experience, I was able to talk
about how I'm passionate about medicine.
Talk a little bit about my past and my future.
And, now, to be invited to the same program
as a host, as a co-host with these doctors that have
been doing this for 10 years is such an amazing opportunity.
It really makes me feel like the whole situation
has come full circle.
Originally, I came on as a guest.
Now, I'm coming out as a co-host.
It shows that I wasn't just popular
for 15 minutes of fame because of my looks.
I have a medical message that I wanna get out there to you.
I wanna have fun with medicine and I think because
you've been so receptive and shown me so much support,
it's because of that I'm able to get an opportunity
like co-hosting The Doctors Show.
(smooth hip-hop music)
I was also invited to the premiere of a movie,
"Flatliners", and it's movie based on medical students
who were trying to kill themselves and bring them back
in order to experience the afterlife.
- I would like you to stop my heart.
You give it one minute and then you bring me back.
(beeps)
- The one thing I'll say about the movie is
that it totally surprised me because I thought
it was gonna be maybe a little science fiction
about medical students and how medicine can give you
a peek into the afterlife, when in reality,
it turned out to be a scary movie.
I'm a baby when it comes to that, so half of the movie,
I was watching like this.
So, if you saw me in the theater, don't judge me.
Alrighty, so we're headed to Ricky Dillon's house right now.
We're gonna surprise you with a collab
next week or maybe the week after, so stay tuned.
The most unique part of my trip was that I was able to do
something I've never done before and that's meet this
adorable pig named Luna.
Ricky was able to show me how smart this pig is.
How if you call the pig, the pig actually comes over.
I'm totally jealous because I can't have a pet pig.
New York City has an explicit ban on pet pigs.

There are new media outlets out there like Cheddar,
Mashable, Instant, and I do visit some of those outlets
because I believe that they are doing
a great job for society.
They're taking the concepts and the formats
of a traditional news network,
but making it a little bit more
millennial friendly and I could totally get behind that.
Because if I could have my message reach anybody,
it's millennials, the younger generation.
The biggest impact you can make on your health
is in your age group, so take listen.
(smooth hip hop music)
The reason you see me meeting
all these television executives
is because I see a fantastic opportunity
right ahead of me.
I'm able to reach and help millions of people
right in their homes by being on television
and giving my medical advice.
My goal is not necessarily to "make it big" on TV.
My goal is to reach the most amount of people possible
with my medical advice.
As you can tell, I love traveling and if you travel also,
click this link to see my travel tips video which give
you all the insider tips on how I fight jet lag,
how I stay healthy, and how I pack effectively
when I go on my trips.
It should go without saying, but all of these amazing
opportunities that I've been getting recently
really have come because of your support.
Your support for this YouTube channel,
your support for my Instagram.
So, I have to give you a huge thank you.
It really means a great deal to me.
Come here, gimme a hug.
Come here, gimme a hug!
