Transcript

0:00 The Joe Rogan Experience. man just you know trying to dodge this delta yeah or the gamma or whatever the gamma the rays yeah I think they have somewhat close to – I'll read it here. an opinion on it. 80%. 80% of all COVID If it's Fauci approved, You know, I mean, Yeah. It's not likely going to happen around here. and their view on it just because the context has changed.

2:43 Unless you're in danger and then you have to prove that you're in danger. That's actually part of what you gotta do. It's like a new security system. It's a.22. Yeah, but why do you have such a low caliber rifle? cold shower. if I got, Because you don't have to be that specific. Yeah. And you're just, like, if someone comes in, It's an odd number. But it's crazy.

5:06 the gun thing is weird and you're protecting your ears I don't want to shoot anybody. So it is kind of oddly spiritual he bought a gun And we live close to each other. a little he's like this i think he called it a beginner gun and then uh we were both like no no You have to have the ammo in the car and the gun in the back. You've got to, like, it's not like Texas where you're born and, like, you know,

7:25 If she ever saw a.22 go off, she'd be like, oh. I was like, yeah, I got a gun. I lived in New Rochelle, but when I would travel like what if i do gigs in the city is that your watch going off how dare So it's kind of like going to another country because they're unaware of what's going on in the city. We're going to the city. Brooklyn's an odd duck, too.

9:07 He's a drug expert. It's like it's not what it used to be just a year and a half ago. There'd be just like a pack of kids. is that the guy with the dog he was with the dog yeah that was in a park yeah yeah queens what was Somebody starts running, they're like, I'm not going to chase this guy i going to be am i going to be received when i'm or am i is there going to be someone going hey

11:53 where it's like the really smart nuanced people like those old school mob bosses who were It used to be like, you know, you at a time of war or something, you kind of you came like how pathetic they are and how foolish they are and how arrogant And I like to just treat people like people and think of their ideas as individuals or individual probably great deal of accuracy what those people are going to say based on that one answer,

14:57 Because whether you were on the right or the left, at the end of the day, you're about yourself. Yeah. know class and race. Explain the story. It was a bunch of lacrosse players they had His ties go back to England or whatever. And one of them was- A lot of people listening are like, oh. Then they got mad. I mean, he ended up getting disbarred and doing time because

17:50 for me. So I'm benefit-forming. They did this to this poor black person, you know, and then it was loaded because of Durham, because you got Duke, and Duke is like the Harvard of the South, and then you got poor Durham. A few journalists apologized. The problem is once the narrative gets out there, Yeah. the more you can sort of jazz up the headlines and distort the story,

20:03 It was totally like they tried to build a big studio in Miami start a fight. came in I was like to make people laugh but but I was working with like a Yeah, that should be happening in MMA People love the drama. The line producer's going, okay, call him the N-word now. I bet you punk was a really good guy. I bet you they just edited it you remember puck from real world

21:53 No. He was on multiple shows. I mean, he's a fucking legit comic. funny fucking comic and so original like who's who's more unique than theo vaughn like his style We'll see? Well, it makes them famous and it makes them wealthy well there's a i think there's a um a shining light to that there's like But in doing so, these people have cultivated a group of people that are actually looking

24:24 It's the same thing thing when you do comedy, They didn't pay. Yeah. that comedians and entertainers have ever had. where they'd make those pilots and spend all that money Now that's happening online with Patreon, patreon.com slash yannigalongdays. You're not going through a filter like Patreon. free subscription and 100 of all those requests are accepted wow yeah but he still does well yeah

27:28 And I'm pretty sure he does it all through his website. Remember when they did that on their website? They just said, we're giving you this album for donation. it was like 2005 that's right he did it didn't he do something very similar like that when he released his comedy special he did pay whatever you want I think you could pay whatever you want?

28:53 It's, there's some purity to that, you know? that models pure straight to the fans. Information and you're not getting the full there's i'm not beholden to you know some peacock logo or you know you're beholden to probably a Jerk off stuff? I'll give you one to take back with you. Thank you. The key is like, you can get a really good workout with 35 pound kettlebell.

31:37 It's incredible. You're using your whole body. You're doing something where the whole body is involved in the exercise. The day before I did it. When did I do it? I didn't do it yesterday, right? I did it the day Because then when people were sending me things about hypothermia, Your nipples look like those rock climbing things. It's stupid. Wow. Oh, yeah.

33:48 Yeah, but I would be fine. Yeah, I don't think there was a mattress on the truck though. Well, it wasn't that hard. Dude, he scaled it. It was still pretty impressive and dangerous. CBD is good for anxiety too. That's proven. I have all this anxiety. Or maybe you can't. they start to get a sense of your level of anxiety if you start saying, like, the massage's out to get me.

36:20 Imagine if you really were an alien hybrid If you have a little charisma, They have a lot in common with stand-up comics. Well, the thing about Hitler. Is that what they called it? Well it's probably not wise You would just be a berserker. We found the time. but I don't know if he's the one who told us about it. is a fake image of supposed Ponser Chocolat

39:12 It might just be what you were saying, that that word might not be real, This is like, I guess, a company that's saying like, hey. But a lot of fucking companies started during Nazi Germany, right? Looked like a cigar. Right. That says 12 million, but it has an Audi logo. if you're driving down the 405 with that bad boy yeah look at that right there wow

41:44 Yeah tweaking. Yeah. She takes Ritalin. And so they're saying she can't because- Yeah. Fucking gritting their teeth the whole way. They don't fuck. Okay, Simone Biles addresses leaked medical records and ADHD misconceptions. I've always followed the rules. 2016 and then all of a sudden they tell you can't be on it anymore and you have to compete in the

44:56 Right. the Russians and the Chinese are just like, they're beating us online, dude. I don't know, but it was one of the funniest when she's going, are you there? tell you that crack is cocaine. It's like, yeah, white guy's doing cocaine. He parties, dude, yeah. Hunter Biden likes to be naughty. He's eating hookers' assholes and smoking crack and getting wild, getting foot jobs.

47:34 that and then as time went on i was like i think one day i was really high and then i had this prosecute him and attack him and all this shit. How many guys like that do we know? A lot of guys. In our world? Yeah. I mean, I give him more, He was fucking amazing. Then I'd have to take him to a liquor store so he could buy 40 ounces to take the edge off because he was so

49:33 Those guys could rhyme, dude. Fuck, dude, Cool G Rap is, to this day, in my opinion, Oh, Jesus. Eric B and Rakim? Yeah, but Nas is from back then. Right? Like, the background dancers, break dancing, like the synchronized break dancing, and the beatboxing, the DJing. they love black so that korea korea loves break dancing yeah have you ever followed stance elements

52:06 His name is breakdancing. That's like you pulled up my Mauritius clip when you pulled up a promo. Watch how he brings his legs together. He's like, watch that one. The kid in Ocean's Eleven could fit in a suitcase. It's crazy. to jiu-jitsu, practicing break dancing moves as a method of getting better at jiu-jitsu. Yep. They'll start, you know how those Thai boxers kick trees and stuff?

55:11 whenever anything happens you'll get like a bunch of text messages from guys you know i know a guy Your leg doesn't just break like that. lower didn't make sense the way it broke like it there was something wrong with it i would imagine I'm like, I can watch a replay. Oh, dude, you a replay oh dude i can watch him now yeah i've seen it in person I'm very accustomed to injuries in a weird way.

57:13 Yeah, they make beautiful clothes. I saw you with Chappelle. Burr's got that great joke. This is like, I am a professional. You look good too. and they're inside that cage, and they're, at the the time they're probably like 30 or 40 feet from me. And I had a conversation about this. Chris Weidman went full blast thank you yes i love that yeah that. Yeah. Exciting.

1:00:13 Yeah. And the only reason why you don't know who would win out of the two of them is because they haven't fought. He beat Gilbert Burns. Is that because the athletes evolved? But I think that the level of competition that Usman has faced is arguably better. and now it's the leg kicks, it seems. just so you could feel it. A Joe Rogan kick in the chest

1:02:46 You go, oh, God. Oh, that's Aaron True. They just take the kick. that ever existed in MMA. He's this big, giant, Brazilian heavyweight, fantastic kicker. He was leg where he got kicked by Pedro Hizzo. I was at Beverly Hills Jiu-Jitsu once in the early 1990s, And he, you know, the UFC gave him a giant contract at one point in time I think at the time he was the youngest ever heavyweight,

1:05:29 His legs were all fucked up and swole. I tried to find it. He was a tank. What's the one guy? Roger Gracie? No, not the Diaz brothers. Yeah. Jake Shields was a monster Do you think that that'll be as exciting as the striking in MMA I like watching people figure out how to beat a guy. how many of those people have ever been kicked? Maybe 4,000, 5,000, right?

1:08:52 the way you enjoy a strike, a knockout. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So you can make the argument that Jon And So was the Tiago Santos fight. Yeah. Change his face. Yeah. Like when he was on Conor's back. It was like a crank, right? Like you do what's called a gable grip on the neck and you're pulling the neck this way. neck. He was just pain. Find Connor submits Khabib, because if you see the way he's doing it, it's very sophisticated.

1:13:21 he gets his back and then whenor tries to scramble to his feet He gets his arm under Right. Yeah. I'm going to show the worst choke. It's in the top 20 thing, but it's the main thumbnail. So he's choking him with his own body almost. I want to see this. It's the most horrifying submission I've ever seen. I think it was. That's a regular one. It's got to be number one.

1:16:13 Yeah, I know the picture I'm looking for now. Yeah, I'm in the top 100. Yeah, that's it. Wait a minute, what does it say? And that's not it? Yeah. If you go to their Instagram page This is driving me fucking crazy. What's the date of that one? Is that it right there? I want to go back to the video. Yeah, I don't know why it's in the thumbnail All right.

1:19:43 You do those things? Cigars make me relaxed. Yeah. my daughter's not gonna yeah my wife says the same shit when I get in an ice Yeah. Is it? They have another article where they have the picture in the top on 1FC's website. What did I say? Goga Plata is your leg. That's it. That's it. You fucks. It's not worth it. That's it. There you go. That is it worth the wait. It's not. That's it.

1:22:16 But then he turns him the other way. Look at this. Yusup Sadulev. Nasty, right? There's so many assassins from that part of the world Yeah. I'm a mountain man. they're young they're they're just they they're hard men yeah this is just like this is the life They call it MMA basketball. He's fucking phenomenal. with submissions. I saw it, yeah. You see it in the Olympics now.

They do it all the time. Turns out that currently the only drug used to treat ADHD that is legal in Japan is called Concerta. It says it's, If you go to, So many people are shitting on her online and calling her a coward.

1:28:51 prescription drugs, like Jordan Peterson Yeah. Correction, it was first told. It is unfortunate because I'm sure we'd love to see her compete, and then another documentary, Prescription Thugs, she's the best of all time by by all people's accounts aren't they changing rules because she I mean, most people don't until the Olympics. How much money do you make for a shot put?

1:31:48 She's the one in 96 who, like, her ankle was done, she limped in, situation with gymnastics. What do you mean? It was great. They, you know, they overlooked these allegations. and in their vaginas for years and years and years and years and years. But when we interviewed Carrie, she was like, you know, it was like, she came down the ankle and she was really hurt but then like you can see the coach the caroles

1:34:46 So it's interesting. I shouldn't have done it. and I think that's what made the Carolis so controversial I'd just fall on my dick. But they're girls, you fucking creep. 46 to be doing that kind of shit? but next to those girls, He won the heavyweight title at 45. He did. He was beating world-class guys at 50 years old. Tom Brady, 43, 44, that's unheard of.

But yeah, I mean, everything has consequences, man. Yeah, I'll find it. Withheld evidence that would have exonerated prisoners. She fought to stop DNA evidence from being introduced into a case that would have

It tastes good. Yeah. There's bear shit in my backyard. You ever eat a bear? No, I have not eaten a bear.

1:42:52 You're ready to survive if things... I don't know how to eat a bear. Would you do it on the Traeger grill? Anytime you're eating an animal. because they really don't have an opportunity to get trichinosis. you seal the meat in a bag. No, you won't die. It sucks. But if you ever ate my friend, you would get trichinosis. They're awesome. You take a cast iron frying pan and you put like some lard in there or some um some um tallow some beef tallow

1:45:59 That's what I do, but with the sous-vide you sit it in there for hours and hours and hours, Fuck bears. yeah there's i saw this one video of a polar bear just like chasing um oh yeah a little baby that you don't see. Yeah. Mountain lions are killed wholesale because they take your dog, right? Oh, yeah, man. Oh it's not a mountain lion it's a snow leopard

He was talking about cows, and he was like, people say it's unnatural to eat cows. and they have one bad day. He wants the good stuff. Oh, God. He starts getting in there. Oh, he's alive for the guts. Maybe he's just a foodie and he wants the good stuff. Guts first.

1:54:43 It could get up and run away if it You don't have to tell a dog. Yeah. Oh, Jesus. Why is that okay on YouTube, but you can't have vaccine disinformation? and stuff like that. It was disappointing. I know. you'd be like, what? You know, if you're sitting there across from Ari Shafir and you guys are talking and Ari I got to dip out of town once in a while

1:57:45 you can't go to LA we get off the air I'll explain everything oh, they're not paying me what I'm worth or they won't headline me no and you got to sell tickets these fucking crazy people you're gonna tickets to see these The regulations, the hoops, environmental concerns. You're like, what? Especially for you. you i mean you're a busy guy so this is like a one of many

2:00:00 I'm not trying to make any money with this comedy club. know so many comics don't have health care I want to give him health care I If it wasn't for this show, there's no other alternative to a point in time where you you go into this rarefied air where everybody starts to play it And you've got to do it that way. I didn't even know what I was saying while I was saying it.

2:01:59 uh, And she goes, the boyfriend's cool. He just wants to be there while it happens. Like what? So he comedy in Austin. It really is. and you and I'll go on together. And they can really, like William Montgomery, he's opened for me before. Tony and him crack on each other and when Tony gets him he laughs loud loud which is how things go now. and they have families

2:05:09 There's a lot of resistance, but you got to cut all that resistance out. You got to figure it out away the both of them their team their family right you can't concern yourself with the only thing you got to do is do your best. Do your best at what you do. It'll ruin it. You need somebody to put you on. don't these weird island people meaning these people that live in an island

2:07:34 Yeah, what is up with that? That's like the dream and that there's no competition that – because it used to be all guys were competing for a few spots. They'll look at other guys who are doing podcasts. Why am I not number one? and the single guy do you remember those shows yeah do you i do remember them yeah i didn't I go, we're on TV. I was like, this is wild.

2:09:45 A million? Right, right. A million a week. And I was like, a million? It's not going to work. got to just keep doing the same thing and do it the best you can every day and ultimately trust in the process and conscious were you conscious that other people weren't doing it or did you just do it was a I'd have guys come on they didn't want to do it like segura there's a funny fucking clip

2:12:07 I was like, I think if you just keep going, it could be bigger. Right. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, I did 100 ads for them at least. that keeps it tight. Or coming out of there to stretch it out. I mean, you need some- Well, also people liking you and wanting to have sex with you. You know when you feel weird? Yeah. The biological trick where your body wants to get rid of cum.

2:15:02 yes look at the fuckingzos, right? Yeah. Yeah, but the puss, puss, puss is probably incredible because girls like that, you got to respect, they know that that's their job. what is a great business move? Yeah. And the whole idea is to gain money in your portfolio. Yeah. There's some women that are self-made. They're kids. You think 90? I mean, you're not giving women any credit.

2:17:34 She gets a newsletter. He did get hammered. their relationship, And yeah, I mean, experienced the love of an attractive woman, they have an insane amount of influence. Yeah. Get that. And you're hungry. Get that. to get there. Hell yeah. Some low rent hoes Yeah. That maintenance, that type of, that's, she fucks that guy, she's going to work. True love.

2:20:18 He knows exactly what's going on. And he knows. I think there was dry. I think she was doing drugs. Yeah, she's doing those pills man the pills. Yeah, I don't know why I mean It's like, hey, I'm sad too, but I don't have to. Of course. It's 365 days in a year. Brian Cowan said something to me once, and it's really important. He means not worry about the bill.

2:22:15 that's not that hard if you live in your means much where it's like the real like when i almost thought i was gonna die when i got shot that one It is true. Yeah. comics that are islands, you know, that all want it to be all about them. and other peers. You know, when you work with someone like when I work with Chappelle, for instance, thank you but there's there's these moments where you you, but instead of that, I just appreciate him,

2:25:19 I just appreciate that I'm watching a rare gem. i mean when he dies they're gonna put him right there with prior they're gonna put him right there Do your best and enjoy what you're seeing there. You can't just be comfortable with things. It was beneficial for me to be mean. But then I It's those people don't know you at all. You know I mean like as a person you're a good dude

2:28:08 sometimes it's the luck of a person being somewhere at the right time. Self-indulgent is really common. I guess you got to remind yourself and anybody who knows you You just, freedom, time, hard laughs, like you said, loving people. Those things, The human brain looks for problems. yourself that you think you should be part of the thing is you feeling so good about

2:30:54 And that's why I have such a problem, I think we all do, with people who make these big categorical statementsical statements like this is the answer and like we've never really had anything like social media before where you get to see people Yeah. disingenuous from top to bottom you know from executives to casting directors to Like sometimes entertainment is like pure honesty.

2:33:27 all watching something that's incredible art. When you talk to him, he's all just talking about his music. It's ironic that it's just weird that like that's not the most famous stuff. Do you think if he was like Rolling Stones known, it would kind of ruin that in him. He genuinely doesn't care. That was in Austin last night. Yeah, but how many people is that?

2:34:58 But he's just like, he's a real artist. You got that fucking tiger blood. Like, officially taking a sauna is not going to prevent you from getting it. I mean, I'll go in occasionally with my wife, but I like to deep breathe and it gets uncomfortable Many years. when you get a viral infection, Right. You can only do it for 25 minutes or whatever it is.

2:38:28 Did you see that paper that I sent you? and this is one of them, turning up the heat on COVID-19. Hamams? containing essential oils with antiviral, and building physiological resilience. I make sure I get rest It makes you feel great. I think they showed a 50% decrease in people that use saunas on a regular basis or 50% less likely. I bet a lot of them do.

2:41:31 I haven't had a hot dog in years. Hot dogs cured COVID. I mean that's a lot dude Finnish winters It's like, when I would go perform there, when I started, like, early in my comedy career, Like, they're just cool with it. During the day, they're shy. Like in what way? You pour a little fucking liquor on them, they change. have and that's why we have less of an incidence

2:43:40 Yeah, they offed themselves. Heroin. It's big. Did you ever see that video? It's kind of weird. Fighting the opium trade. We are tolerating the cultivation of the opium because we know that if we were to destroy it now, Wonderful group of heroin guards. Yeah. We're providing them resources, and we're providing them alternatives. No? a lot of money in heroin.

2:46:24 from a heroin overdose everything with fentanyl because it's cheaper, so they cut things. Laphroaig. One shot is one shot, right? It's laced because it's unregulated. Right. They're not committing a crime to anyone else. He sniffs it. he realized that the propaganda about what drugs are is very different than the actual drugs Some weird fucking ideas, too.

2:49:39 in like season three or four saying is allowed. Oh, okay. Drug possession. Minor—trespassing is a problem. It added that to you, but the rest Wow. The data show that 911 calls about drug use, public intoxication, and sex work, a proxy for public concern, did not increase when following the policy. I just never got around to watching it. make it legal i think they made it legal like what kind of gambling i think uh sports

2:53:36 Walking while trans law. Officers may not arrest an individual for this charge. I do. people who fuck a certain number of guys that they're kind of friendly with. Why is that so terrible? evolutionary theory if you think about it smart chicks who are not that good looking, if there's a war or a famine, you can't do anything with like a sociology thesis.

2:55:44 That's true. But you could also sell your pussy to a war to cure the disease. Maybe. Maybe they can develop weapons to fight off assholes. That's true. There you go. What planet have you been living on? It's been tried a few times. because there's not equality of effort. You don't get anything if you're lazy. It changed everything. is so important for a culture to innovate for a culture to like one of the things about america

2:58:27 art comedy fashion yeah i mean it's like all the way to the east it's gone all the way to japan i your projects joe uh joe dimaggio said you know there's rich people don't make uh make the big Isn't that crazy? Look at what you became. You'd be a DJ like the rest of them. Is he? He doesn't look like Rita Wilson or Tom Hanks. I don't even know if he has a dad. Exactly, because his fucking

3:01:04 can sing like Aretha Franklin? That's the story. They don't know. Let me ask you this. I'd lock that pussy up too and say, girl, you're making bad decisions and you're not capable of thinking on your own. have to work She can't handle things. So let her dad take care of things. Can't do that anymore I mean, it's crazy that it exists and that it still exists.

3:03:34 Because it's some weird. I'm telling you the government's involved man But you don't think the government, CIA's involved in that? He can dance. So I quit. Isn't she like 36 years old or something? I don't know. He's a scratch golfer. He taught himself how to play father, Jamie Foxx? He can act. He's jacked. Right.
