John Oliver, the only man who will make me wake up, check my phone, and squeal, "Ooh, Compounding Pharmacies!"
I heard this in John Oliver's voice.
@@mandlerparr1 I hear everything in his voice now. Its inside my soul. Please send help

@@pervyturtle2673 🤣👍
Pervy Turtle Oh crap, it has spread. My brain is doing the same...... on the fun side, I'm reading boring academic papers in his voice.
Watching this really was a strange experience. I am a German pharmacist, and in Germany, EVERY SINGLE pharmacy MUST be able to compound drugs. It's law that every pharmacy must have a chemical lab for raw material quality control and a designated room for preparing customized drugs on doctor's prescriptions. Every pharmacy student learns how to prepare ointments, suppositories, capsules, etc., and every pharmacist does this later on a daily basis. Our pharmacies are strictly controlled by state agencies, and surprise visits by inspectors are not uncommon. I had not known it is so different in the US....
Thats part of the problem with being ground breaking in regulation. If we're first you can often get things wrong and if you don't change then it's not great.
Wow 😮 I’m German and didn’t know that. That’s great though!
@@princesscaraful yeah, my best friend works at a pharmacy (in Germany) and in training, they learn about the chemical components and stuff. They learn how to mix and make ointments, salves, creams, etc.
I did that once too during a work experience at our local pharmacy. We were allowed to make our own hand lotions.
Corporations have to sell us our drugs. Their lobbyists in the capital say so.
I live in France and I don’t think that’s a thing
The actors at the end... solid gold.
Almost fell out of my chair laughing 🤣
Method man is not an actor. Hes a god damn hip hop legend. One of the pillars of the legendary Wu Tang clan. Dont fuck with em
I actually disagree, believe it or not.
@@chakinfingerz947 And he Stole Michael Boltons Lady Parrot Wife...... *Stone cold Thug*
Fuck you Michael Bolton
that "spread it oliver yourself" pun is definitely brilliant
As a pharmacist, I can confirm that “don’t store your pills where you poop” is indeed the first thing I learned in school.
Why are all "medicine" cabinets in bathrooms then... Someone needs to talk to the architects asap
@@Icariusinfinium lol!!
as a non-pharmacist I can confirm that that was the first thing I learnt in philosophy class
Ah man
@@Icariusinfinium *Why are all "medicine" cabinets in bathrooms then... Someone needs to talk to the architects asap*
Poor design for sure. We always tried to tell people not to store your meds in them for the simple reason that people drop things, and what is right below the medicine cabinet? A sink with a drain and maybe full of water. Amazingly the most commonly dropped medicine into sinks was always painkillers...
I never would have imagined seeing zazu calling one of his friends basic
I never would've imagined a person who hates birds so much would agree to play Zazu
Then you're new to this show apparently, since this isn't the first time he "shades" a bird. lol
I only saw the original movie.
Rowan Atkinson isn't in this video.
@@AceBobcat that's because he's dead
And the lesson is: if you want to live longer than 60 and you aren’t perfectly healthy, get as far from America as you can.
couldn’t be more true now lol
Unfortunately I don't have the money or the lack of a criminal background to do so. 😭
Run, run for the hills. Don’t turn back
IDK, Betty White seems to be doing good
@@happyfacefries We aren't all Betty White xD
For me, a European, every single episode of John Oliver is like "look what doesn´t work in the USA and works great in Europe" - compounding pharmacies are no exception - in Czech Republic, almost every community pharmacy is equipped with at least a basic lab, every hospital pharmacy is equipped with a lab suitable to make every possible drug form - from the simplest (hard capsules, creams, ointments, suppositories, vaginal suppositories) to the most sophisticated and advanced - sterile eye preparations, intravenous or intrathecal solutions or patient-adjusted-dose chemotherapy drugs. There is no possibility of wasting and misusing money, because these compounded medicines are usualy fully reimbursed by the public health insurance and if they are not, there are strict criterias why is that so and every insurance company is watching over its funds. And every compounding pharmacy must meet State Institute For Drug Control´s (It´s our national FDA) requirements for the quality of the medicines made and the lab equipment. Works just fine!
I slightly hate you right now.
Raven Salvadore hey, I’m here to back up my fellow countryman! Don’t hate us just because we have boring solutions that actually work, channel that energy into implementing them in the US! -a fellow European
I tend to agree, neighbour :-)
Cheers! European neighbour here. The "look what doesn´t work in the USA and works great in Europe"-factor of this show is always astonishing. It's good entertainment though~
Czech Republic? You mean Czechia?
Imagine how many companies say "Oh Shit." at the beginning of one of these lol
Aaron & Spectro I love how both of your avatars are the same purple.
I doubt they give a shit considering nothing can be done. They probably just laugh.
@@HughieDoomer If people know about the issue,it will be harder for them to keep acting like this and put pressure on Congress to act on the issue.

Soon enough, the Netherlands will officially declare John Oliver to be a public menace for his Dutch accent. Understandably so.
And only the Dutch will care
it just sounds like he has a lisp.
He actually sounds like Goldmember in Austin Powers, nothing like a Dutch accent tho
@@X3105i I'm not Dutch and I care. It was pretty cringe lol
Yet another country John Oliver probably should avoid.
Ok but that “lady bird” that Micheal Bolton had was actual a male lmao.

Somebody knows a little too much about parrots.
@@TheChristmasNinja12 Naw, eclectus parrots are special . When first discovered, they were considered two different species. The females are red and blue, the males are green. Who knows why, but they are very special birds. Also, African grays are not small parrots! Conures would have been a better choice. Why, yes, I am the parrot lady.
I didn't know I needed to hear David Schwimmer say "what the fack" before now but I absolutely did and I'm so glad
Fack U. I like it & will use it frequently. Fack U bub.
"I probably shouldn't talk about that while we're being recorded. Ha ha ha ha!..."

"Don't put the pills where you poop."
*Suppositories has entered the chat, through the back door*
all i can think of is trainspotting when someone mentions sticking drugs up their ass
Read the opiate underground forums like bluelight and you will see soooooo many people sing the praises of shoving drugs up ur ass versus main line,free base, eatint snorting or any other method.
I don't get the joke Grampa!
Anthony Peters French people put everything in their asses! If you have a headache, they have ibuprofen in form of a bullet to put in you ass, cause you see: it’s more effective!!! They even have paracetamol for babys in this form. Also they mesure their temperature in the same place cause it’s more accurate!!! ... go figure

Wow, I haven't read "..entered the chat, through the back door" since the late 90's
DANIEL O'BRIAN :D
We need him more on camera, the guy is a genius.
Oh snap, Daniel O'Brien cameo! I miss Cracked After Hours.
Dude I was so confused when I saw him!
Yeah, after Cracked shit the bed he got a job writing for Last Week Tonight
DOB is the man! I really miss Obsessive Pop Culture Disorder.
Goodish News - Small Beans - Off Hours but, Mike just got a job at IGN so don't expect more than a few episodes :(
Cracked used to be so awesome.
“And mine.. belongs on the Emmy for Outstanding Variety Talk Series that somebody else keeps winning over and over again.”
Lol
Dat immigrant took his job!!!
Cracked used one of my favorite channels. Obsessive Pop Culture Disorder was DOB’s best work. Wonder what happened to them?
@@Konst_Abel Some of those writers started their own RUclips channel called Small Beans, Cody has been doing Some More News... I'm not sure about DOB, though.
@@CooperAATE Dey tek er jebbbb!!
@@vincentmalloy4424 he writes for LWT, and did a few podcasts with Michael stating that he would hesitate doing something similar to his role on cracked and would not try to recreate his segments on a different channel. Although this was a while ago, so not sure if anything changed
Edit:he also does some podcasts with Soren Bowie of Cracked
If you make healthcare system for-profit, then don't be surprised when people are doing all kinds of shady things to harm patients just to make money, that's why healthcare should never be for-profit in the first place.
The supreme leader have spoken
Yea well about that, no one thinks or deludes themselves into thinking its health care. Most folks know it's just another source of pushback and stress, and ya might get something covered or get some treatment from time to time. It's not a health care system. It's just a for profit producer of goods and services.
I couldn't agree more.
Good lil troll have some bridge crumbs.
Where's the Fun in that?
I’m so happy that Dan O’Brien from Cracked was able to find a great place to work. When I saw him show up in that blood pressure photo I had such a big smile on my face. I miss his work
holy shit the ending.
Must've been a fun pitch on the phone.
“Who watches John Oliver at 3:00 in the morning??”
Me: “Oh boy! Three am!”

It's not that late here in the West Coast
@@MrknisterKanister Almost nine 8:42.

That final bit shows why John Oliver wins at the Emmys every year
Ricardo Marques I think he has won because of the 17 minutes BEFORE the final bit...:)
Loved seeing Daniel O'Brien from Cracked show up for a second. Glad he was able to find a good job as one of the LWT writers
I had severely chronic hives with my last pregnancy and am lucky enough to live a block away from the only compounding pharmacy in my city. It was the only place I could get a topical cream made that helped relieve the itching I experienced, and the drug I had prescribed was completely safe. It simply wasn't something manufactured that I could order. I've had to go back to this pharmacy for other needs as well, and have never had issues. (The medication was also far cheaper than name brand drugs I've needed for other health issues.)
John Oliver: *mentions something new to me*
Me: sounds cool
Me, simultaneously: oh no
Same. In the beginning I thought "Oh neat, I have issues with a lot of medications, maybe these places would be good for me"... Then by the end I was thinking "Oh... uh... no, thank you."
Me: WTF is a compounding pharmacies and why should I care? Oh well, it's John Oliver so I guess I'm watching anyway.
(watches video)
Me: Where did I put my pitchfork?
The only episode that wasn't incredibly sad was the one about that Japanese mascot.
Me: Sounds cool, but I wish I would have spent 2 minutes reading an article about it, instead of watching 20 drawn-out minutes filled with jokes repeating what obviously was the odd or funny part.
@@punksmackyou7701 lol than why even bother clicking on the video bro? It's kind of in the title haha
"We don't need regulation, the market will regulate itself"
The market:
This show and it's report on how compounding pharmacies need more oversight is part of the market regulating itself. As of this comment, nearly 800,000 people have seen the video and can be a part of the process for each state to implement stricter guidelines for these businesses. Just because it's not linear, doesn't mean capitalism can't get the job done.
After the free market kills everyone who uses the unsafe facilities they won't have any customers and will go out of business.
The free market works!
@@zacfoo So then are you for stricter regulation on Compound Pharmacies?
@@zacfoo Several years ago, this selfsame show did an episode on how much food gets thrown away by various food companies. Not to mention all the many documentaries from years past about similar food production atrocities in the States (Food, Inc, Fed Up, Hungry For Change, etc). So I guess I can rest assured that the many problems in the food industry that those films addressed have since been rectified. Phew! Close one!
I hate that saying, it honestly triggers me when people who are within the market say this too as they’re literally cutting corners against regulations😂😂🤦🏽♂️
David Schwimmer: WTF!
Me: Can you imagine how Friends would be if they were allowed to swear?!
Just watch the first episode of Band of Brothers. David Schwimmer drops some bombs.
They used to swear but sparsely
It would still have sucked a lot?
Alexandru Papara re: swearing on prime time. I know Netflix has less rules to abide by, but it truly surprised me, as I binge-watched The Witcher, starring Henry Cavill, just how often they dropped the “F” bomb. Hmmmm? Gratuitous Language is it even historically accurate? Just throwing a rando ? Out
@@MsDanie-wo5tw Here in Norway we have said fuck/faen for over 1000 years and before that they probably used some other word. :P FYI, most nations do not have the cencorship USA has. In my nation they do not regulate speech on TV.
However you wont find swearing in kids shows, or the news unless they are interviewing a citizen who swears. They have common sense.
Tbh a normal dinner conversation with my family would be to rough language to air on US TV. Thats kinda hillarious.
The ending was priceless. That really sold the show.

Ofcourse Zazu knows a basic bird when he sees one
Zazu is a hella jealous bitch bird. That "basic" bird got style for days.
Typical John Oliver formula: "Here's something that sounds awesome and obvious that it should work. How do they f#ck it up?" I love this guy.
That ending with all the celebrities is one of the funniest things I've seen on Last Week Tonight period.
That celebrity montage really went off the rails in a hilarious way.
TacticusPrime - it reminds me of the Michael Bolton Lonely Island video. Michael Bolton is good people.
Best comedy bit I've seen in years
TacticusPrime Oh yeah? Well fuck you Michael Bolton.
Yeah, but are they actually gonna sue for libel
They should make a show with all those actors. And Kimmel. They are all very good people. Except Kiefer. Nah, I'm joking. Kinda.
Visible duck in the bottle is the first sign of quackery.
Where did that word even come from?
LMAO! Awesome!
That was a fine, terrible pun sir/madam. I tip my imaginary hat to you.
WHAT THE DUCK ???
Don't you have a job? Seriously, all you do is post comments on all the Left-leaning videos on RUclips..
I've been catching up on this season's episodes and I just feel the need to say that you are a national treasure and an amazing person. I enjoy the level at which you analyze the topic and inject some humor. You bring me to tears more than I expected because of your empathy and genuine concern. Thank you!
EDIT: And yes, I know it's not just John Oliver, so let me clarify that I'm sure it's the whole team that is great!
The Emmy for Outstanding Variety Talk Series was established in 2015. John Oliver has won every year.
You call it fungus. They call it free-range, organic penicillin.

Vegan pills, no animals were killed
Am in Pharmacy school. Can confirm. "Don't put the pills where you poop" is lesson 1.
J.D. Olivet haha
what about suposit...you know never mind.
The word pill implies using the oral route
Bingo!
It is sad that this industry has so much scandalous and negligent intrigue. My neighborhood had one of these pharmacies with a very dedicated and empathetic compounder. Sadly running it like this put it under. She would pay costs out of pocket for those who could not afford their meds. She did so much good.
I love how John's imitation of Dutch is so far from the truth that even over here it's funny!
The worst were the retards in the audience applauding John, pretending they'd recognized a good imitation.
It's basically Goldmember

I'm starting to get to the point (partly because of this very show) where I'm sincerely shocked beyond belief that humanity is even remotely stable. Just imagine if we could solve _every single_ issue this show has brought up over the years. We'd be substantially closer to a more perfect nation.
It's even more sad because the EU has most of this shit already solved lol
So true!
@@SaftGoldbear wow 🙌
the depressing part (for me at least) is that even if we were to merely attempt... ATTEMPT... to solve these problems to achieve a more perfect nation you would get criticized for being a utopian. You would get ridiculed for being unrealistic and you would be mocked for being an idealist. So there it is. Nothing will ever change. Nothing will ever get better.
You said that 4 years ago. Nowadays, we don't say it is remotely stable anymore. It isn't. Things are pretty fucked up. World war, pandemics, climate disaster and shit. All happening. But we still have piñas coladas.
Why is Dan O’Brien from Cracked the guy with his arm in the blood pressure machine? Lolz
Will Lee he works for last week tonight now! they usually use writers etc for the weird photos they use during the show
sometimes John Oliver makes me feel like the whole of reality is a conspiracy
It is. It’s called capitalism
Well. Reality is stranger than fiction.
@akadeepsea Google "Dunning-Kruger effect", my friend. And weep.
I mean, according to Elon, it’s more likely than not that all of life is some sort of huge simulation, sooo......
@Luis D. Capitalism kills 10m+ people a year :)
Capitalism also created poverty as we know it, so relieving the same poverty is hardly as impressive from that pov
I love how HBO does this giant crossover thing where they get all these celebrities to appear in the end of the video
and all the RUclips comments are like: OH MY GOD, IT'S DANIEL O'BRIEN!!

Shout out to John Oliver for this segment on compounding pharmacies. I didn’t know places like this existed and it’s something to keep my eyes out for.
They're the only place you can go to for a lot of pet medications. Pet medications are a huge thing now, and regular pharmacies can carry low doses of insulin, etc. Thing is, there wasn't any demand for that even 10 years ago.
No joke. You certainly don't want to take your eyes into one of those places!
catbert7's Gaming Highlights you know what you’re absolutely right. Lmao!
Seriously, eff those places.

I wish John would do a show on Generic drugs. If you have an adverse reaction from "generic" drugs the Federal government grants immunity with no recourse. Sadly over 65 percent of all prescription drugs are now filled as generics. It's the same drug as the big pharma company's original, and that big pharma company still makes a lot of money from it, but the bonus for them is financial protection through the laws which they themselves wrote.
This video: *exists*
Me, who works are a compounding pharmacy: *_SWEATS_*
Then just do it right, it's really simple, if he did one about the shocking flaws of EMS I wouldn't be worried, I am passionate about what I do and doing it right as all medical professionals should be in my opinion
@@foobarmaximus3506?
I love how every problem John talks about is happening because of a lack of FDA oversight. Let's start to solve that dumpster fire first.
Good luck. I'm sure the FDA is in the pocket of corporations by now.
@@couragekarnga8735 Is there any question of that at this point. It is a fact.
and that means that by extension we have a multi million dolar show on a corporate network talking about how essentially corporate corruption is destroying america. because this is at it's root a public-private partnership scam.
Teddy Roosevelt is turning in his grave right now
@@couragekarnga8735 Understand that like most government agencies 99% of the agency is dedicated to and takes their job seriously. Where agencies like the FDA fail is at the top (where the people in charge are selected by congress and the president rather than based on qualifications), and funding, which is almost always less than half of what is necessary to do the work they're tasked with.
So to say it's "in the pocket of corporations" isn't exactly fair... Rather you have a whole lot of good people that have to appease a boss that's constantly changing, probably meddling, and has a 50/50 chance of having no clue or fucks to give about doing a good job.
"Our names don't belong on your FRAUDULENT spinal medication," is probably my new favorite Ru Paul quote.
As some one who had clinicals in Atleast ten different pharmacies and worked in two more after that. This counting retail, hospital, independent and compounding pharmacies. I can tell you that if I pill gets dropped on the floor it goes right back in the bottle. Met probably Atleast 15 -20 pharmacist and non of them will tell you to throw in the bin. So if you take medication, I'm 99% sure you've had pharma floors in your mouth. The only reason they will throw out a pill is if it's broken, incase anyone is curious why they even have the hazard bins.
The only reason that I remember that outbreak was because NECC was located in my town and it was huge in local news. I actually didn't live too far from it and passed by it as a kid with the police tape up for weeks. The Public Health Director got fired because of the lack of inspection.

i worked for an animal pharmacy and it’s true-there’s pretty much no option for birds other than getting drugs from a compounding pharmacy. another thing i’ve needed for my own cat is antiviral medication but in eye drop form. there’s no other way to get them. the other problem with animal drugs is that pharmacies aren’t technically supposed to give owners compounded medications to take home. as you can imagine, this is really hard when a bird is on a compounded oral antibiotic which they need and can’t wait for the owner to get in the mail whenever the pharmacy (which might be across the country) can make the drug. as a result, most vets have no choice but to send home compounded drugs anyway.
"She did leave him, for me. Fuck you Micheal Bolton." Gets me every time.
I have a dog sick with a fungus called 'Valley Fever'. At every single commercial pharmacy, it was going to cost almost $100 dollars a month for his meds. We kind of panicked. The Compounding pharmacy my vet sent me to filled a three month script for $115. I walked into the pharmacy, and one whole wall looking into the lab is glass. I stood there and watched the techs in masks, gloves, and sterile uniforms, making meds. The lab was spotless. It was beyond what I was expecting...I was wondering why they had a glass wall. Now I know: open to scrutiny. I guess my dog and I both got lucky, me because I get to keep him feeling good and happy and I get to enjoy him for several years yet, and him because he doesn't have to die because I can't afford a thousand dollars a year to keep him alive.
"She left me" *holds up picture of a male Eclectus parrot*
Came here just to say this. Raises so many questions.
She's trans
@@WindspriteM Much better explanation :)
This guy parrots ⬆️
Well, now we know why she left. He can't tell the difference between male and female!
I almost did a spit take when I saw DOB in the first graphic
Without compounding pharmacies, I would get all of that acetaminophen with my pain pills, and I even the strength of my pills to match my pain. Our local compounding pharmacy is amazing. They do so many special things for patients. It’s too bad they have such a bad name. I had no idea until I saw this.
Someone in the comments called you a British puffin and I’m here for it
I'm so glad John Oliver covers these subjects, because I did not know that compound pharmacies were a thing.
Me too. (Not from america tho)
I recently found out too. I'm so glad he covered it!
Always good to see DOB!
Ah yes, my favorite show: “This thing in the U.S. is fucked up because of money”
Shoutout to Daniel O'Brien @ 0:11 ! Loved your work on Cracked and hope to see more of you here.
after hours and opcd were great
Sutapa Bhattacharya that was him! Love OPCD and After hours.
I still dream of an After Hours reunion. (Cody's Showdy "Some more news" scratches my OPCD itch.)
I miss After Hours. It were great entertainment.
@@Gershelf I could watch After hours for days on end without tiring.
Method Man Saying "Jesus.... Christ" is just gold
Meth doing anything these days is good shit. My man needs to be more known he's a fkn legend
No one picked up that Big Baby Jesus was what ODB changed his name to for a time
One of your best episodes! Well deserved Outstanding Variety Emmys. Keep them coming
I'm so happy to see Daniel o'Brien. I wish he would start doing OPCD again.
