Now it is an honor to be guest hosting for Ellen "Degelenergenes" (Deliberate mispronounciation of "DeGeneres") So, but as you can see Ellen isn't here today. I want to tell you exactly what she's going through, but you know my movie, The Hangover? You know that? Actually it's not that. I just wanted to plug my movie The Hangover. So it's doing amazing on DVD. Ellen has the day off, so obviously I was asked to fill in because apparently she and I wear the same size suit. Actually you know what? My wife and kids are here today in the audience. Where are they? Want to give them a shout out? Hey! Look at them. Oh, wow. Look at the frown on their faces, huh? All right, all right. I didn't force her to be here at all. That is my wife, if you go back. That's my wife Tran. And that is the apple of my eye, Alexa. And what's your name, sweetie? I'm kidding. Zooey. Zooey. Don't get mad, don't get mad. All right, all right, all right, all right, all right, All right. Don't worry, we're cutting all this. I'll be honest, I brought them here because I'm a little nervous. This is actually my... it's actually my first time ever hosting a talk show, so thank you, Ellen. This has been a huge honor. I've had an amazing time. It's been incredible. I have never, ever done this before, so I just gotta... I just gotta reference what I know. So I'm an actor. I'm a comedian. And this is true. I'm also a doctor. So just for me to make me feel comfortable, I need you all to disrobe. If that's okay. No? Yeah, it's true. I was a general practitioner and I worked full time. Actually I would... any general practitioners in the crowd? Good. Let's talk about them. General practitioners, we are the dumbest of all doctors. All right? Like in general I knew nothing, okay? If a patient came up to me, say, doctor, what... what do I have? I don't know. In general you're sick. I don't know these things. I'm going to refer you to a specificicst. My whole point is I love doing comedy. I'm living out a dream, but honestly I miss my patients, and I miss helping people. So today, I thought I'd help all of you out with any medical questions you may have in my segment, Ask Dr. Ken. Those are my real abs. I had a sit-up coach. Where is Adrienne Lee? My question was, why do some Asians get Asian glow, and is it dangerous? Got it, why do some Asians get Asian glow, or like the Asian flush if you will. Like basically it is due to a lack of an enzyme called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, which metabolizes alcohol in the body. And when you have an accumulation of said substance, you can get that Asian glow, or in American terms looks like a tomato. So it's... and but just to be clear, I can also answer non-Asian medical questions. I just wanted to throw that out there. I don't want everyone to assume that's my only area of expertise. So you know. I help out whites. Yup, yup. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Adrienne. Keep it real, Adrienne. All right. So where is Mafa? It's actually Mafa. Mafa. That's what I said. I said that. Hi Dr. Ken Jeong. Hi, Mafa. Hi, my question is, what is your medical opinion on medicinal use of cannabis or marijuana? Yes. Next question? I have some more in the back of my Camry. Now, where is Huijeong Hong. Again, this doesn't have to be an Asian question. Hello Dr. Ken Jeong. My question is, I'm wondering why I started to sweat only half side of my face when I eat really spicy food. Excuse me for a second. Web M.D. Half my face... Sweat... Oh, we're out of time. Sorry, yahhh! Good job!
