- I just think you like the
vibration feature at this point. - (laughs) That's what she said. (both laugh) - Welcome everybody, I'm Doctor Mike. We have the amazing Molly Burke here who's gonna be getting her complementary or honorary medical license today by performing surgery.
- Yeah! - Do you remember this guy's name? Cause I don't remember,
I think he has a name. - He has a name? Ed?
- I like Ed. I think we should tell the audience in all fairness that you've
played this game before. - Okay, okay. - Well, because I know you're
gonna be good at it now and then everyone's gonna be like oh yeah, she's awesome.
- Wait, A, you're an actual doctor. (Mike laughs)
B, you did this two years ago. - I did, I did, but I did bad. - I am blind,
- So? - and did this when I was five. I literally didn't even
know they still made this. - [Mike] We have a broken heart, a pencil, an Adam's apple
which is just an apple, - [Molly] These are so cute! - It's like someone tried to come up with the cheesiest things they could put in. - Like so punny.
- Yeah. Oh, punny, I like that. We're opening the Operation. Whoa, okay. So I'm gonna translate
what's here for you. - Okay. There's Ed, and he's nude. - Oh my god. - We're sorry we barged in like this. There's also a Ziploc bag
with cards that say doctor and you have cash. - Oh, cash cash money!
- Oh, and it actually kinda looks like Canadian cash
cause it's colorful! - Yee. Canadian money's plastic. Is American money paper? I don't carry money.
- No, I don't think American money, I think it's cotton. Cause you can wash money. (laughs) - I didn't get the pun. - Well like, if you get
a lot of money illegally and then you wanna make it legal, you wash it. - Money laundering, okay.
- Yeah, washing money. - Got it. It wasn't that good. This just says extra card, not for play, please throw away. And I'm not joking. (both laugh)
- Wait actually? Why did they put it in? - I am holding cutouts of all the things we need to take out of Adam's body. - Adam?
- A fun, Adam? Did I say Adam? - Edward. (laughs) - Edward.
- You don't even remember your own patient's name! - Sorry, sir. I wanna see if you can
guess what they are. - Okay.
- Alright, you ready? I'm gonna hand you the first one. Alright, here you go. - An ice cream. - God, you're so good at this! Okay, this one has a funny name. The first word of it is a name, and the second one is an animal. - It's a name and an animal?
- Yeah. - I mean like, it feels like a donkey. Is being an ass a medical term? (Mike laughs) - The first letter of the first word is C, and the second word,
the first letter is H. - Charlie horse! (dramatic music) So you know what's funny? I'm an osteopathic doctor and part of our skills in comparison to like
an MD, because I'm a DO, is that we have really
good palpation skills, meaning that we feel muscles, bones, a little bit better
than the average doctor cause we've spent so many hours in the lab touching people.
(record scratch) That sounds weird.
(Molly laughs) But basically, we're
touching other students. (record scratch)
Cause that's all we do, like we touch...
(Molly laughs) - It's not coming out right.
- This sounds so bad. As students, part of our job is to touch each other, (laughs) okay! We do lab work, that's it. I'm gonna leave it at that. Okay, I'm gonna, so you can memorize them, that's the heart.
- Heart. The ice cream. A wishbone.
- Okay. Just to orientate yourself there, the wrench is the ankle. - Well that's his nose, I know that. - Yeah, how did you know that? What if it's something else? (record scratch) - Like what? - Well I don't know, what
else could feel like that? (both laugh) - Doctor Mike! - I was talking about his thumb! - It's not fair cause I can't see! (both laugh) - What's the rule like if you touch it... - I think yeah. - No, okay, you get two chances. (game buzzes) (Molly laughs) - I don't think I'm gonna get it. - He's just trying to be modest. (game buzzes)
- Nope. Alright, I'm gonna give
myself a second chance too. (game buzzes)
I fail. - This game's...
- No the apple's really hard. - Okay, let's get another one. - Alright I'm gonna do one of them. Water on the knee. Remove the water on Sam's knee. - Water? The water?
- You know what's funny? People do that to me all the time, that I say water wrong. - Yeah, water. - Water. - Water.
- Water. - You sound like... - How do you say it?
- You're from New York. - Water. - Water. - Water.
- Water. - [Brooklyn] Do you say dog too? - Dog, well, depends if
I'm saying it to my homie I'm like, wassup dog. (Molly laughs) I'm telling Brooklyn, - You're so cool.
- all day. (Mike laughs) Do the operation.
- That's really gonna make you like hip and cool with the kids nowadays. (board clatters)
(both laugh) - I've realized we can't bring you into the operating room just yet. Look at our doggos playing together. - [Molly] So happy. - [Mike] Like Bear's like, I have to learn how to be more useful. Okay, so this one's gonna be hard for me because funny bone is inside spare ribs. (Molly laughs) This is so medically accurate, oh! I'm gonna give myself a second chance. How do people do this? This is really hard. (game buzzes) Pick a card, any card. It's like I'm a bad magician. Oh, you got the wishbone. I think the wishbone, personally, is the hardest one to take out. (game buzzes)
- Okay, (beep) it. I'm just gonna...
(game buzzes continuously) (laughs) I didn't say that! - The one thing you don't
want your surgeon to say in the operating room, (beep) it. I just think you like
the vibration feature at this point. - That's what she said. (both laugh) - Can you get the wishbone out? I know you're just playing with it now. (both laugh) - That's what she said. - Our patient here, our lovely Sam, has suffered tremendously at the hands of Doctor Molly Burke. - Specialist. (both laugh)
- Specialist Molly Burke. I don't think I would let
you in the operating room. Cause I think you might do some damage. - You know, actually, when
I was a child, growing up, I wanted to be a doctor. (both laugh) - And then what happened? - I went blind. (both laugh) - Do you know people by smells? This is so off. (both laugh) Like if one of your friends walks in, you're like, I know who that is. - Yeah, I always know when
my mom's in a room too. (Mike laughs) So oof.
- Poor mom is getting tossed into the wringer. No, but, do people have
their own like, scent that you recognize? - They do. - Or is it just like
perfume, cologne based. - Scent, vibe, energy,
voice, like all of it. So I always know when my
mom walks into the room because we're so connected. We like, read each other's
minds all the time. - Aww. Your life hasn't been easy, right? Like if you could take what an average life is like and then you put a lot
of challenges in it, that's what it sounds
like you went through - Yeah.
- from what you've told me. How do you feel like that shaped
you as an individual today? Like outside of the YouTube thing. Cause like YouTube
doesn't define you right? - No. - Neither do your conditions. It's about your experiences and what you went through and what you can bring to life. So like how does that
change who you are as Molly. - I get scared to think of who I would be if I didn't
go through all that. I don't think I would be as kind, as empathetic, as open minded. I wouldn't be as positive and optimistic. I wouldn't have the
passion for helping others that I have. - What do you think like, cause there's people watching this that may not be going through a lot, like all their family
members might be healthy, they may be very healthy, they have a great job. What should they take away from this? Cause like, they would watch us and say well I've never gone through anything, does that make me less and what can I do better? - [Molly] A lot of people come up to me after they see me speak, and I'll do like an hour long keynote, they'll hear quite a lot of my story and they'll come up and be like god, like, I'm really
battling with depression and I haven't gone through
nearly as much as you have. I'm like well, it's relative.
- True. - Pain is relative.
- Very true. - I think it's really harmful
to belittle people's pain and people's experiences. There's nothing I hate more when people go like, at least you're not a
starving kid in Africa! - Yeah. - Well that's not relatable to me. And like right now,
this is the worst thing I've ever been through.
- And not practical, right? Like cause what do you do with that? - That's not helpful.
- Yeah. I do think, and this is a great segue for us to finish up, that I think YouTube and
social media in general get villainized too often
- Oh my god yes! - as just being all negative or all causing anxiety or
all these negative things. - Yes. - And I feel like there's
so much positivity that's being overlooked.
- There's so much good on this platform that doesn't get the love from mainstream media, from parents, from teachers. There's so many amazing communities. Like I have people all the time reach out and say I live in a rural town in like, El Salvador and I've never met anybody who's blind and I've always felt so alone. Thank you for like making me realize I'm not the only one. And like you're educating people like, this is good stuff! This is important!
- Like yes, we're playing Operation,
having a good time, or talking about toes. - But there's more behind it. - There's a lot more behind it. I hope you guys enjoyed
our little Operation - Operation!
- and the lack of a medical degree for Molly today. She's not Doctor Burke at
the end of this, sorry. - But we do have Molly Burke disease now. - We have Molly Burke disease now, and if you wanna learn
about Molly Burke disease, which is not yet an official disease but we're working on it,
- But it's really exciting. - and where we talked about Molly's toe, Molly's thumb, Molly's shoulder, (Molly laughs) and other body parts
that I won't name here, go check out her channel and watch the video.
(both laugh) Stay happy, - And healthy! - Yay! (chill techno music)
