| 0:00.0 | Hey dessert listeners, a lot of you have been asking me to talk about how Dr. Kay had his medical license reprimanded recently. |
| 0:06.8 | So let's get into it. I have read the report that the State licensing board submitted and also I have read the |
| 0:16.5 | statements from Dr. Kaye and Healthy Gamer and I've watched some of the videos |
| 0:21.6 | put out by Dr. K in which he talks about the situation. |
| 0:25.0 | And one of the reasons why I want to talk about this today is that there seems to be a lot of confusion online as to what this means. |
| 0:32.0 | With some people saying it's not that big of a deal, diffusion online as to what this means. |
| 0:32.5 | With some people saying it's not that big of a deal and other people saying that Dr. Kay should |
| 0:38.1 | have his license removed or they even think that this means that his license has been removed and he has been charged with a crime or something. |

| 1:24.5 | content and people have referred a lot of his content to me over the years and |
| 1:29.9 | from what I've seen he seems like he's on the up and up, a very respectable guy doing a lot of really wonderful things in society helping a lot of people. |
| 1:40.0 | But I can't comment on everything he's done obviously. So a little primmer on on him is that he is a psychiatrist and he is on |
| 1:51.1 | Twitch and on YouTube he on YouTube has he is on |
| 1:53.9 | on YouTube he on YouTube has two and a half million subscribers so he's very very popular |
| 1:59.1 | He graduated from Tufts University School of Medicine in 2014. He has been a licensed psychiatrist |
| 2:07.4 | practicing medicine in Massachusetts since 2017. He is board certified in psychiatry, meaning that he has additional training and has passed additional testing. |
