Growing Up In A Cult w/ Moses Storm | Dr. Drew After Dark Ep. 228

[@thedogshouterer]

I saw Moses' stand up here in Pittsburgh last night. His story is insane! It reminds me quite a lot of the book Educated, which was beautiful and heartbreaking.

[@bridgittebrown0191]

Idea. Make him a regular on the show, and make them episodes of Dr. Drew teaching Moses all the things he needs to know but doesn't. This was one of my favorite episodes!

[@cultistsash]

Tom corrupts Drew and now the cycle continues.

[@ShortCircuit1987]

Agreed, the content here was far superior to MOST other episodes…

[@kristenortega7353]

Definitely need Moses on The Honeydew!

[@tortillajackson7694]

I believe he was on already

[@shasmi93]

We got that finally. And it was life changing for me.

[@ProjektReaper]

Never heard of Moses Storm but suddenly a big fan. Great jokes and sense of humor, and even more incredible is his ability to laugh at and make jokes about his past. Fantastic

[@digitalsalsas]

You failed to mention his princely hair quaff

[@Sunshinelovepeach]

Same here! And possibly unpopular opinion, he looks like a young robin williams to me!

[@kaithoudek8410]

This feels like OG Dr. Drew after dark where he would talk with different comedians!!! ❤️

[@Vanilla_Sun]

One of the best episodes yet! Hope Moses gets to talk with the main mommies

[@TommyTBags]

Moses is an inspiration on how to overcome adversities in life

[@MrBuketman]

Yeah his parents really screwed some things up mentally.

[@sammybananas]

I've only seen him here, but assuming this is his typical style, it's also cool that he's somehow staying respectful even when he has every right not to be. He could be absolutely lighting his family up, insulting every religion, but he's surprisingly level headed and it was awesome just to hear his story.

[@randomradonymous]

I understand they kind of have a routine for this show, but I think a guest with such interesting stories to tell, would be worth interviewing for more of the show rather than taking calls.

[@flynnplumlee5293]

Honestly most of the calls are the worst part of the show. There's some bangers occasionally but they're mostly just annoying and don't flow very well.

[@beantown702]

Pisses me off that they strictly run 1 hour. That's my only gripe with YMH is that they got too big to be natural with their podcasts

[@justinroser6833]

"Moses Storm" Pull them jeans up, its about to get weird.

[@McIntosh.R]

58:37 "Really pushing my no education to the limit here" is an all time clip!!

What about a go fund me for the lady and her OB medical issues and baby? I can’t imagine going through anything like that and also having to sue on top of it ❤

[@DanielBarron45]

20 mins in and this story is fascinating.

[@lordfordification]

I'm jealous, I wish I could hear it for the first time again

[@chrischris5510]

I have a refrigeration business and i work alone all the time. So its all fascinating. Podcasts increase my billing hours. Enjoy.

[@benjihawk3451]

Coincidentally, now I find religion "adorable & terrifying. 23yrs raised in a cult masquerading as 'born-again' baptists. It took me another 15yrs to recover, forgive and move on. Cheers to the podcast & sincere empathy to anyone who experienced the same plight.

[@khartist]

His whole special trash white was great but what was even better is that the whole special is a set up for a punchline like a stand up comedy cliffhanger.

[@BevelAesthetics]

I feel like this is Matteo Lanes gay friend that sounds like squidward

Can we please have Moses on more often?! Or have a segment where dr. Drew teaches Moses sex Ed please!

[@Sharkey1021]

Favorite episode by far

[@strumdogmillionaire]

I'm with Nadav! Bro just took a big drag! Drew obsessed with cannabis hyperemesis! I think he's learnt it recently and he's blaming all sickness on that if they have ever even looked at weed once before lol

[@zeroa69]

Hyperemisis is a geniune problem for those whom consume large ammounts of concentrates via dabs and distalate pens. I think its the insurgence of cheap ass tanks that are the most to blame. Cheap tanks are cheap for a reason. I stopped buying them and now make my own with quality terps tanks etc... They dont hurt my lungs at all none of that acidity in the back of the throat after multiple hits.

[@tylerriley9945]

Nah ask any hospitalist. it's turning into a problem

[@cactaceous]

Drew’s daughter apparently was addicted to weed and had to go to rehab and whatever so he’s bought into the narrative that it’s bad.

[@madgreek253]

Drew is a hack

[@Clownsssss]

I had it too, and all my sisters 😅 It is def more prevalent than I'd thought

[@mrstarfishh33]

His episode on Tim Dillons pod was amazing.

[@amyblackwood2259]

[@s_a_n_e]

fantastic guest!!

[@ajplays-gamesandmusic4568]

"Sprinkling the semen on the Goop." that sounds like a job for Gwyneth Paltrow

[@understandunderstand1271]

Social media has caused a lot of fomo or fear of missing out. These young mothers subconsciously compare themselves and their lives to instagram models and tik tok people who party and spend money non stop and if women consume hours of that everyday it changes them and makes them feel like their child is holding them back from the party the cool kids are at. I’ve seen it a million times and each time these women abandon and neglect their children they always blame someone else and never take any responsibility

[@birdette79]

I don't know Moses but, as a recovered Mormon I feel a sliver of his pain and I love him lol, what a fascinating story

[@rar371]

His story reminds of a movie I watched recently, Glass Castles.

[@trustmeimapro]

Lol I'm totally watch that movie

[@kristennicole5080]

[@bossaudio12]

Dr putting his experience with weed onto everyone

[@The_Autoculturalist]

Yeah. Now I'm not a doctor but my wife and best friend both suffer from CHS. Neither of them ever took a hit and immediately threw up. From what we were explained it more of a building up of thc in the system over time. Certain triggers like drinking or a heavy fast causes the cells to flood the system and triggering a hyperemesis attack.

[@xxSgtXioXxx291]

This pod was actually pretty good ive been listening to all YMH on spotify

I can’t say how excited I am to see Moses around ❤️🙏🏻he’s such a precious lil bean.

[@sammybananas]

For your book, Moses, even though you most likely won't see this, so for anyone who wants to write a book, just start writing stories down and pay someone else to organize them. Just start wherever. I used to never start stories because I couldn't ever decide how to begin, and then I had the realization of wait...I can just write whatever part of the story I want.

[@shasmi93]

No he won’t see this. But I did and I’ve been in paralysis in how to start my book. So I see it and THANK YOU!

[@dakotawhalen4760]

Oh my god doc saying that cough puking is hypremesis is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣 tell us you’ve never been a stoner without telling us you’ve never been a stoner lmao

[@-Ricky_Spanish-]

Tell us you've never had CHS without telling us.

[@takeinterest1497]

lol wut

[@dakotawhalen4760]

@@-Ricky_Spanish- I personally have never had it myself; correct. However, I have spent an extensive amount of time with a confirmed case, and this is not the experience. However, it is the experience of ~95.8% of stoners who have ever over done it on a nice milky tug or a warm joint, lol. I don’t appreciate CHS being minimized this way. I would come home to find my dear friend had taken a couch and stood it up against a wall; so that he could put his head under it and have the full weight of the couch resting on his shoulders/neck because “it’s the only way I can get my mind off of the stomach pain.” Possibly one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever had to witness. The only remedy for them to get some amount of relief is a steaming hot shower for some crazy reason. Until you’ve pulled a naked hippy out of the shower (because the hot water ran out) to walk on his back and give him some relief, been that hippy, or treated that hippy in a clinical setting; you can follow the proto and eat my scrum, buddy.

[@madgreek253]

​@@dakotawhalen4760I've suffered from very similar symptoms for over 20 yrs, had multiple ER and Dr visits. Tried multiple medications and in the last 6 months, I've think I've finally narrowed it down to gas build up in the intestines which causes pressure on the stomach and bowels and results in severe nausea and pain in my mid/low back. If I can get that pressure to release, the pain and nausea will go away almost instantly When I first was having issues they tried to blame marijuana narcosis (smoked 1-2 g of flower a day) but even after being so we for over a year I was still having issues.

[@-Ricky_Spanish-]

@@dakotawhalen4760 Well I've spent multiple days in the ER for it, so yeah I have personal experience. I've never heard of "cough puking" in the 30 years I've been using THC, so whatever the fuck you're talking about is not some kind of universal experience. You ARE minimalizing CHS.

I've vomited spontaneously from a bong rip once, it was the coughing though, just an extreme start of a cough caused it so I never got to actually cough

[@bethdavisjimenez]

To that poor mother thinking about suing for malpractice. I at one time would say, do it go for it. But I had a situation with an awful surgeon who did my back and neck surgery. I wound up with long term bad side effects and then I researched other patients and they did too and way worse than I did. But it wasn't until I read the reviews on Google did I see the 1 star reviews and negative reviews. I spoke to several lawyers who specialized in this and they all said a min of $1.5 million to go through this mess and suggested to leave bad reviews instead

I’m sorry but Dr Drew is kind of stupid about the CHS. I think he’s a little over sensitive since his daughter had it…. That was absolutely NOT CHS in that video and the way he described is not how it happens. It happens when you haven’t smoked for about 12 hours if you smoke heavily. It’s more akin to withdrawal

Also - you guys need to stop letting Drew do the live calls. It does N O T WORK. AT ALL. Voicemails for Drew only. This episode was good but also a bit of a wasted opportunity.
