Hello, I am the great and terrible Joshua P. Warren, the Wizard of Weird, and I'm warning you right now that I might use some uh foul language in this podcast. And uh so if you have kids around or you know your grandma or something like that, uh you might want to stop right now. This is your warning. Okay, I I don't want you to be surprised if you hear some R-rated language. All right, so there you go. And uh I'm not planning on saying fuck, but you know, it's possible that I might say fuck or shit or something like that in this thing. And uh that's not part of it. That's not my plan. But I I I've had people tell me that uh if you say fuck or shit or stuff like that, that um maybe that is uh a sign of low intelligence because that you're not you're not smart enough to use better words. So you have to go right into the gutter and say uh say dirty words. But I, you know, I don't I don't know if I fucking believe that. I uh what but what I I will do is I'll try not to say fuck as much as possible on this thing, uh, but I've I've fucking warned you. So uh I'm recording this podcast because that I'm gonna be honest with you, and uh I find that honesty is lacking these days tremendously. I'm recording this in April of 2026, and uh I am 49 years old. This year I will be fifty, and I find that the world has become the phoniest place ever. Because people uh I I don't have the all the answers. I can't explain it. I it it just everybody seems phony. Not everybody, but you know, I I think you know what I mean. I'm tired, I'm worn out, um, and I'm less than a month from this trip where I'm gonna go get uh fresh stem cells from a place in Panama, the country of Panama, because that I have uh rheumatoid arthritis, and I hate talking about medical stuff. Medical shit grosses me out. When I was in high school, you know, they made me dissect a frog and a cat and a pig and all that. I was just like, this is fucking unnecessary. And it was. It I mean, like, I how would you like to be? I mean, I I guess some of you are probably in the medical profession and you're okay with that, but I got I guess I got a weak stomach. Nine o'clock in the morning, I'm I'm cutting open a cat. Fuck that. See here, I I'm already talking talking dirty, I guess. Well, anyway. I don't like talking about medical stuff, but I'm I'm gonna tell you this because that this is part of life. I I can't be the only person who uh who gets some news at a certain point in your life about having a medical condition. And so I'm fortunate. Uh I've been I've been very successful at doing what I do, and I have the ability to go to Panama and uh and get these stem cells. And I don't know why that the medical business here in the United States is so corrupt, but it is. And you know that already. You don't need me to tell you. So sometimes I think you have to go to other places if you want medical treatment. Umbilical cord. Can you spell that? Umbilical? Try it. Do it right now. Spell umbilical. I think I would have nailed it. It's U M B I L I C A L. So I'm gonna go down here and they're gonna give me some umbilical cord cells from a f from a fresh birth. It says here uh in placental mammals, I guess that's what you and I are, placental mammals. The umbilical cord, also called the naval string birth cord, or oh god, I'm not it's like funiculus umbilicalis, is a conduit between the embryo or fetus and the placenta. This is gross as hell, isn't it? Uh says during per uh prenatal development, the umbilical cord is physiologically and genetically part of the fetus in humans, normally contains two arteries, uh the umbilical arteries and one vein, the umbilical vein, buried within Wharton's jelly. I'm not even gonna look up what the fuck Wharton's jelly is. Uh says the umbilical vein supplies the fetus with oxygenated uh nutrient-reach blood from the placenta. Conversely, the fetal heart pumps low oxygen, nutrient depleted blood through the umbilical arteries back to the placenta. You know, I believe in God, but sometimes I uh I think about God and I go, couldn't could you not have done a little bit better than that? Why do we have to take a shit every day? Oh well. Again, what do I know? I'm just an idiot with a microphone. But at least I got free speech, and that's what matters to me. I have the First Amendment in this country, and I can say whatever the hell I want to. So, um I'm gonna be honest with you, and uh maybe I'll pay a price for that. We'll see. But at this point, you know, like I say, I'm I'm I'm about to be 50. Uh I'm getting to be the grumpy old man, so I just don't I really don't give a fuck, to be honest with you. Uh I'm just gonna tell you the truth. Probably about here's how okay, so here's how this kind of began for me. Uh I, as you may or may not know, have always been pretty much like Indiana Jones. I've traveled the world, I have investigated things, I've I've written books and I've been on all these TV shows and I've been in movies and stuff, and um I I'm not saying they were good, all right, but I did, but I did do that. And uh people would always say, Man, I don't know where you get all this energy. How do you do it? Well, uh, yeah, I expended a lot of energy. I started when I was in my teens, and um now that I am uh over the hill, whoo, it it uh it started kicking in for me. I think if I think about it really, uh maybe about 15 years ago, um I started having the first symptoms where you know I I'd get up and I'd wake up and my fingers would be kind of sore, or or uh I'd have different joints on my body that would be sore, and it would there'd kind of be like a burning searing pain. And I just thought it was because that uh I'd overwork myself, or or you know, like I I used to live in Puerto Rico, uh Rum Capital, uh, and so sometimes I thought maybe I just drank too much, you know, I drink too much rum or something, and that's this is what's going on. And then finally, um about I don't know, maybe six years ago, five, six years ago, um the pain started becoming worse. I'd wake up and all my fingers would be really, really sore and burning, and then my knees would, my ankles would, and then also I started uh becoming extremely tired and fatigued. And um, I mean I'd sleep for like 14, 15, 16 hours and get up and still be tired, and I didn't know what was going on. So I uh and then I started also getting like um a little some little dry patches here and there on my skin, uh like around my ankles or my elbows, and so I went to a doctor, uh I went to a dermatologist, just and uh he said, Well, uh let me do a test on you, and we'll see what might be happening to you. And uh he gave me a test and I didn't know what he was doing, and then a few days later he called me. It's probably bad when the doctor calls you because you know how these doctors are, and I got on the phone with him and he has a funny name. I should tell you his name. You'd laugh if I told you his name, but I I don't want to do that. This doctor he gets on the phone with me and he says, Do you have insurance? And he told me that um I had a uh what they call a rheumatoid factor, which is really, really high. And um which which is uh an indication of inflammation. And so then he told me to go to a uh a rheumatologist, and I went to a rheumatologist, and the rheumatologist told me that I uh that I had this. And uh they said you you know you have rheumatoid arthritis, and they started me out on hydroxychloroquine. And uh anyway, they told me, they said you know, as time goes on, this is gonna get worse. This is an incurable condition. That uh it's gonna get worse. And they were right. So over the past five or six years, it's gotten it has gotten uh to the point where like I'll wake up and I just don't know what to expect. You know, I used to do speaking engagements and all this kind of all this kind of stuff and um travel, and now it's like a crapshoot. I wake up every day and I don't even know how I'm gonna feel, if I'm gonna be sore or not. And I see these people who have had this rheumatoid arthritis for years, and they go through these horrible surgeries. Uh on Facebook, there's a rheumatoid arthritis support group that I uh I'm a member of, and I see their surgeries, and I was just like, oh my God. Now, people they'll look at a guy like me, because I uh I'm always talking about manifestation and wishing machines and all that, and there are uh you know assholes out there who will just be like, Well, why don't you just use your wishing machine and get better? But you see, it doesn't work like that. Um when you use a manifestation tool, it it's not like a leprechaun pops out and and gives you the solution. What you do is you you you try to manifest a solution. And so I did start working with my machines, and I did start working with my techniques, and it led me to modern stem cell therapy. And so I using that technology, and I believe that wishing machines and and that kind of thing are technology, it led me down this path where I I have looked and I've I've found that I believe that uh the best thing that I can do right now is to go to Panama, the country of Panama, and get uh stem cells because that um they've been doing this research for a long time. You know, I've I've always been a big fan of Superman and well, specifically Christopher Reeves uh Superman, and uh, you know, God, you think about what happened to that poor man, and he was he even he was saying back in the day, we need to really dig into the stem cell stuff. So at first, okay, I was thinking, well, okay, if I'm gonna go and have some stem cells, maybe I'll just keep this private and uh I won't tell anybody what's going on. I'll just say I'm taking some time off. But then I thought, well, maybe this is something that I should talk about. Uh something that should be allowed in the United States of America. And, you know, our government goes off and spends billions of dollars doing some fucked up shit. And I would like to see them putting more money into helping us with our medical situation. I mean, when I was in Puerto Rico, uh I talked to doctors who said, you know, our our medical industry here in the U.S. is controlled by some kind of a mafia or something. I don't know if that's true or not, but what I can tell you is that I did my research, and yes, you can go get stem cells here in this country in the USA, but they're not the same quality as what you can get down there in Panama. So in less than a month, I'm going to Panama. I'm getting infused with stem cells for a while, and uh I figure maybe it's part of my destiny to kind of tell you what that process has been like. So at some point here, I'm gonna tell you the all the truth. I'm gonna get detailed with you. I'm gonna tell you exactly what I did to um to apply for this and what they needed from me because it was kind of a pain in the ass. And then I'll tell you uh how much money that I've spent to do this, and I'll tell you the details about exactly what I what I'm going through. And um this is not in my nature. I am not one of those people who just wants to get on the internet and spill the beans and share my private life every day. I I swear to you, I'm not that kind of a guy. You might know that. I mean, like I'm okay with doing a podcast every week or something like that, but I I just, you know, I'm not one of those people who blogs and vlogs my whole life all the time. I'm not uh I know I probably sound like a narcissist, but I've seen narcissists, and I ain't a narcissist. So uh I'm I am gonna tell you about this because I think that maybe, hey, uh I I didn't ask for this, but um as you get older and you start getting curious about technology and what we can do today medically, I mean there are people who are saying that, hey, if I do this, I might live to be 150 years old. Uh and I don't want to live to be 150 years old, but on the other hand, uh I would just like to uh to feel good, you know, and enjoy my life while I'm here. I love my life. I I think this earth is absolutely amazing. Um that's why I, you know, I did move to Puerto Rico, and that's why I lived in the mountains, and that's why I lived in the desert. I love this this world. Uh I'm insatiably curious, and I think it's a beautiful place, and while I'm here, I want to be able to get out and really explore it and enjoy it and feel as good as possible. And you know, I've been with my wife Lauren for 30 years. Well, I guess next year will be 30 years. And uh man, she has just she's been an angel and has helped me in so many ways. And uh she's she's a lot tougher than I am. I wish I had her genes. She comes from better genetic stock than I do, I guess. Um and Lauren Lauren says, Ah, I can't wait, you know, till you get these stem cells, and you you know, and you start feeling better, and you don't have all these joint pains and everything, and and we can get out and start exploring the world again. So that's what we're gonna do. So here's what I'm gonna wrap up this uh with. If you want to know about this journey, I've never done anything like this before in my entire life. Yes, I'm a media guy, but like I say, I don't really I've never been this public about you know what I'm doing. If you want to stay updated, go to joshua pwarren.com and right there on the home page is a place where you can um sign up for my free and spam-free e-newsletter, and when you do that, that's how I'll keep you informed. I'm not sure how I'm gonna post this information. It might be through X, uh previously Twitter.

But uh but that's how you can stay updated. Just sign up for my e-newsletter there, and when you do that, you'll also get an automated email from me that has some really cool shit that you can uh explore and things that will make your life better. So uh I can say I'm tired. I have a lot to get done in less than a month, but um I'm excited about this, I'm nervous about this, I am dreading this, but at the same time, uh it's going to be a life-altering experience. I feel like I might come out of this thing and be like Captain America when they infused him with whatever they infused him with. So I'm gonna tell you the truth. I'm not gonna be phony phony with you. Uh, I'm gonna, for better or worse, I'm gonna tell you what this experience is like, and uh I hope that you will follow this journey, and it will be uh an interesting adventure for both of us. So thank you for listening. Thank you for your interest and support. Thank you for staying curious, and I will talk to you again soon. Oh, yeah. Uh fuck.
