VIDEO – ESSENTIAL VIEWING –
Dec. 8, 2022 – “I really found my niche in terms of finding viral videos that were happening that had information that was totally bogus,” he said. Bogus, or in slang terms, “Cap.” Dr. Brian made a name for himself through busting health myths and lies posted on TikTok, but he quickly fell victim to the addictive nature of views, likes, shares and followers.
“I didn’t expect that and I mean, when I say addictive, I mean it was interfering with my relationships with my daughters and also with my wife,” he said. “My daughters would want to talk to me about their day, which for teenagers is already really rare, but I would be just like so into my phone, my iPad and just not even really listening to them.”
Dr. Brian said it got to the point where his wife and children had to sit him down for an intervention. He said the biggest mistake parents often make is not looking at their children’s social media apps.
