Transcript

0:00 the joe rogan experience train by day joe rogan podcast by night all day one of the things I love about it is how well nature is protected here. Austin is the only place I've ever been to It's so clean. take it over the hill into the creek and so they they were supposed to have installed this big club. No. or agreement to fuck up the planet a little bit

2:25 We all agree that companies should try to make the most amount of money every year always. So their CEO makes a better salary that year. We're good. We got to increase our bottom line. that's going on right now. And just going for more and more and more and more and more at the expense of everyone Like, everybody's balling in this weird, like, performative way.

4:35 people still particularly young people are still like gunning for that aiming for that like i want Maybe you're really wild. My Lamborghini. Like an artist did it. One grosser way to make Crocs. I have fucking no fashion sense. They're very handy. It's acceptable. When I was a boy, you would get punched in the face for that. So they had to add purses to it?

7:16 because that's where I got it. I don't have this thing to go rummage around in and go find it. That's going to get real mangled real fast. an intelligent, interesting person. He's got books in there. Dude, I watched that movie at least 80 times. That's hilarious. Really fun show. that come in and direct and produce and write It's a really good show.

9:51 And she said and I go are you thinking about doing stand-up? I'm like you should do it And I said, do you want to come up here and do stand up? Yeah, I think most my funniest friends are not actually like in entertainment like that Yeah. She does, you know. And that's like a Mrs. Maisel type character. And I needed a job while I was doing stand-up.

12:35 all the time all the time yeah we're on cases all day I got to see how they catch people most of the and catch them lying He'll say, I like that he has no standards. He's not just going to go And these are my words that I think are funny. What am I like sacrificing funny to try to make myself seem smart? he's so good man I love stand up comedy Lenny Bruce

15:28 and the cadence and stuff. shocking they're you know like these are all like but it's because the envelope has been pushed so Exactly. She's so good. They might be. How wild is that they had a relationship trial? to anybody's life, really, Or showing it or highlights. on their non not nonsense their their shit their traumas all that stuff and everyone just gets to

18:36 from being able to look at either her or him and he felt like she would kind of fall apart. It's so ridiculous, dude. I don't know. Yeah. I don't see him as being innocent in that at all. someone else yeah oh it's horrible it's one of the creepiest so there's there's a certain amount But I think, yeah, hopefully it can be done where we all get the example.

21:43 But that stuff's not good, right? behave by and large i mean there's like psychopaths and sociopaths that might be born with a little way that I really, Oh yeah, man. It was so bad. A beautiful, tall, handsome fella. Why would you And even up to the point at 37, when I moved out here to Austin, I had this whole breakdown. Yeah, I was 37. I'm at right now?

24:27 it's, Hey, No matter what happens in your life, if you've done it, you're responsible for that. We can't hate our way there. We got to figure out how to coexist genuinely. We always hear those stories about the person who's doing really well, Like we've told the story about this guy Richard Jenny, some form of you're not good enough programming. because nothing is ever ultimately a good enough thing to finally

28:21 about things they're always thinking that everything's going bad for them It's a, it's a route. He's like... way to a better life ultimately because our our thoughts are so powerful that so so so so long and or thinking about the energy of the universe or whatever it is. You are also rewriting the neuroplasticity in your mind Are we talking nonsense?

31:26 is other than physical. And whatever that is operates in a slightly different way. You know Some weird combination of life experiences But what is that thing? It might be. absolutely, that is, I think absolutely, that is a thing. But isn't that interesting? like this is all ours, like we've been doing for so long. Anyway, but Nature's Metal, that's a great example of, yeah, this is the wild world out there.

35:10 I'm not kidding. They're cute and cuddly, but they're selfish little fuckers who don't need you ultimately animal on this earth i mean i think yeah think. Yeah. I would say. Probably. I mean, also, Yeah, but that's Siegfried and Roy didn't that put a damper in that idea? Oh. something to the power of cafe or something like somebody's walking by with a dog or you're walking your dog and there's

38:34 Dogs get all the love. and they even kill people sometimes. if people are not loved in a good way comes up with people when they want to say like love is the answer like not in I totally, listen, like I said, I'm just throwing out ideas. winning goal, which is I know what you're saying. mdma whatever like all of these ketamine things that are literally helping people right now could

41:47 It's the worst. in that thing. Yes. But those ladies and gentlemen who are legislators, led him before now he's leading in the love of hey actually this can help people and i and we The problem is people abusing that tool. It just grows out of the ground. And if you keep it illegal, I bet the same amount of people would be using drugs Yeah. Yeah. done with that and you know allowing people to have more liberty in that regard, because I think we ought to have that. I think it's preposterous that we're all allowed

46:42 go to good. Maybe we could actually use that money. Well, they're still doing that in California. It was a credit card for sure. And then that was the Inglewood Wellness Center. Yeah, he got robbed in the store and shot. Because like I know a guy, my friend Todd McCormick got arrested for growing weed, growing So they just, yep. That is fucked up. concrete into dust the towers were dissolved using tesla energy i'm... Was that the last time you saw that doctor? That's the last time I saw that doctor.

49:59 That's a leap. things that he said that he believed he was getting signals from some other planet. Who knows? Yeah, yeah. Like if you were an alien thought, like an alien life form, and the way you made things work is you got into this creature's brain and you put thoughts in there my day easier? and they're like, Yep. It definitely is very capable, the human being, the human animal, is very capable of making new things.

53:33 California and about an hour, you know, Northwest from LA and the first three years I commuted down And it feels like you blink and 30 miles went by. and meditation yeah even it's the same as going for a walk right when people go for what's one well i feel like i talk better when i do that you know like uh like i get a little bit of circulation If you abuse it and treat it like shit, then you have this fucking achy

56:13 And they'll try to be mean to you if you don't think the way they think. but that's still them ultimately, There's so much of that. up. And if we can't just acknowledge that and see each other, you know, it doesn't mean again, it doesn't mean that people aren't assholes on the other side and doing things that need to have boundaries. they don't do this to me again? I go, no, no forgiveness. Isn't just being like, and we're

58:40 finding reasons reasons to be mean about people to shit on people because they're terrified well, they're broken I don't know. Not like, see, these people can't be like politicians. and everyone. And we're all just looking around being like, how is this all not working? It's Oh, wow. if female Dalai Lama comes, then she should be more attractive. They're all still going to have shit about them

1:02:21 I get it. I don't know. I think that guy has a lot of integrity. We're not going to find. not for this. Yeah. It's his Twitter or was his Twitter anyway. Or like, no one's protesting fake boobs. And everybody's like, yeah, that's what we do. because that what that meant you were wealthy that meant you had so much food and wealth and And you can manipulate a man's brain by altering your shape with bags of chemicals.

1:05:54 Yeah. If you get a real pair of them in 2022 you're like holy shit Oh, it's like gymnasts. we've only been around for a short amount of time. But also, it's one of the things I always like to point out to people. We know quite a few people. Nobody does anything about it. Well, we're confused. which is great progress you're not going to stop progress you can only guide it you know what i

1:09:29 I mean, it's insane what you can do. Listen to me. cross-platform tracking from apps to apps that's all normal shit the real And the WhatsApp link, he clicked on it. No, there's no malware anymore. And he's like, this is a 100% real technology that's available right now. Okay. to your phone, you're reading all your emails, they're reading all your text messages,

1:12:02 but very much being implemented, Well, yeah, that's terrifying. Zach, you're low in vitamin D. And they're like, oh, my God, this is right here. Well, so yeah, ultimately at 37, I talk about it in the book, but at 37, when I moved out four days a week, yoga twice a week, Pilates twice a week. And that helped me tremendously. dopamine crashes. I've, as I've as I think I've come to find out.

1:15:22 It's all this little, a bunch of little puzzles. And I would get off doing a Broadway show, I'd be flying after the show, and then we'd No, it was like, you know, I had this big dream, still do, of moving out here, buying a bunch of land, building a movie studio slash arts commune slash resort. I'd just broken up with this girl wonderful wonderful girl who was from Austin, who probably

1:17:21 fuck, you know, like just if I don't do it now, I'm not going to do it. And I knew I had to get that I'd ideated on certain thoughts like that. And me going and drugging and boozing doesn't help balance those things either. Oh, all together. I suppose. But I, I learning all these things about how to like love yourself more. That's that were having massive burnout and all that jazz like lots of depression and and and things

1:20:10 therapy. I know that my mom did her best, but it still left me with so many holes, particularly Yeah. Like if that was a real thing, I think that the best thing we can do, the best proxy, which is not even the best proxy. They can then be that mirror back and say, Hey, I think that maybe you're operating in about even a few things. It just gets those extra kinks out and helps you live a stronger,

1:22:43 Some of them look really silly when they're by themselves. Or it'll show you. I think it might be actually called float, yeah. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's just called Float. They're in Venice. Yeah, you need a whole room for a like if it's just going to be you using it, you don't have to worry Do me a favor. Oh, so it just kind of, okay, got it, got it.

1:25:31 Slick. or is it it won't go when you're in the tank okay gotcha what you do is you set it to only go like Yeah, I do that shit. Monster he's a monster like those exercises he does where he's a hold rocks down at the bottom of the ocean He made a coffee machine for me. Well, I drink that sometimes too. Oh, yeah. things like turmeric yeah stuff well we all should be yeah i mean by the way that's another

1:28:24 And we monocrop with fertilizer. which is one of the most degenerative practices how they grow and then what they suck in i mean man we should be planting fields and And it's just not supposed to be that way. even supposed to eat it it's so it does make them fat and delicious i'm not saying that you need it i prefer uh grass-fed meat anyway it's like it tastes better

1:30:32 And you know what, though? I want a little more steak. I want something something more than that more of a chew to it but i would you know going back to Thank you. You know what I mean? Like, they learned. that they were dropping. You know what I mean? Yes. More moral, you know stands I think sometimes I'm being like well animals are more of a life than a tree

1:32:33 there's a real good argument for vegans eating shellfish and closes right it's like a it's a muscle literally just one muscle but because it doesn't really think yeah it just closes opens and closes right it's Yeah. Like, I don't know if they... Japan is just a cool spot. Oh, my God. Or maybe it's just that type of fish or whatever. in the water, Yeah?

1:35:06 Yeah, lobsters, you're supposed to boil the fuck out of them. I don't know if they do, though. They found one recently that was 100 years old. damn. Yeah, see if you could find that they found I think I'm 99% positive That's pretty big. Nobody cared about wearing diamonds on their rings until De Beers. It was like, yeah. You're a man of the people.

1:37:06 It's like saltier. Advertising is real, man. I want to hang out with those guys. Yeah, they do go well. Beer and a hot dog. Sometimes it's good to be fat and happy. Let's not do that. That's right. I'll hang out with those guys. Look at him. They're not wrong. There's this place called, I think it's called Lor out here. Fantastic food. I like a lot of weird beers like who um

1:41:07 Yeah. Yeah, or mainstream. Yeah. And she and her friends were loading up into uh one of her you know older friends vans like panel van with like there was like a mesh gate from like the you know front At 12? it was insane but it's not like I did I partly remember it because to step out of the van and I trip like it's so flexible oh yeah they just yeah we're rubber when we're kids we're rubber yeah

1:44:17 But if you start when you're a teeny little kid, not only are you getting the mechanics, but you have no fear because you're two feet from the ground. You know, we just got her on one of them little- I love those magic carpets. But if you can learn physical tasks, yeah. Like, we never got taught that. Which is crazy. It can be hijacked in a moment's notice if your hormones are off, if you're not doing the things that can take care of this whole package.

1:46:18 No one was broadcasting that. There's a lot of quotes of variations of it from back then, Yeah, he's a really interesting guy, there's such universal wisdoms and truths, Yes, Randall Carlson. Yeah. I mean, like, you know, speaking of a manuscript from 2000 years ago, and there's so much incredibly We've read his stuff. Very interesting doctor. So what did they propose?

1:50:20 But what I'm saying is that it's debated. The documentary questions the existence of Jesus, examining evidence that supports the Christ myth theory I guess. Fucking amazing. He's so goddamn smart and it just makes you think like I Fall of the Roman, Western Roman Empire. Oh, yeah. Oh, you mean like the United States? Go to that picture again of the guy trying to pull down the statue.

1:53:02 He's got him in the lower back. It's artistic interpretation, Joe. they looked like Conan or something manual labor back then we've hijacked them yeah figured out a way to get so much sugar into a drink Oh, all right. For sure. Dude, most people are having way more than that. So much sugar. So find out what eight ounces of apple juice is. four, how many ounces?

1:56:28 And put it on saturated, which totally screwed everything up more. And the FDA allows these things to go on. And meanwhile, everybody else is fucked. This should stop immediately. starts calling them out on all the various regulatory decisions that were made. And then You know pathways It's a great documentary. I think it's called An Inside Job. I learned from that because there are all these,

1:59:51 because they had a little fucking you know side deal like we know i used to work for them they're Just keep your eyes open. I mean, I wish to God I could look to one field There's people that do have good ethics and good morals. Where are you going to put them? It is, but people still want to hate it so much, so much. Yeah, most of the people that understand nuclear in terms of when they're looking at our potential to make clean energy,

2:02:54 You actually can take that same waste with the least amount of impact is a, it's a bummer. shit like you guys are breathing toxic air don't they have the ability to put like those filters Yeah. And if they really want to implement electric cars nationwide move forward and everybody can actually have energy and power, which is one of the greatest, you know,

2:05:39 And then we had kerosene lamps And that's not to mention, obviously, just having lights on, but powering wells for water is on a phone that's made by slaves. powered battery and a long-term supply of clean energy the team have demonstrated a prototype And now Viola Davis had totally pumped him up on Instagram, But I don't think it's... I think it takes a long time.

2:08:00 Because all these people own all of our water. You know, the one who said he got poisoned? He goes to meet someone to discuss it, like someone from the automobile industry And he dies. like why stop at sabotage? it's 21st March, 1998, the first day of spring, collapses to the ground and pronounces his last words, this dude I'm tired of his fucking bullshit I'm just gonna poison him and

2:11:13 A crime writer's dream. to do nefarious things in the name of... And it's like, you know, the Vioxx. It's crazy. bought and sold i mean even the ones that i like or want to like i don't trust that they have the And so maybe just don't talk about this or do talk about this. They'd get the government. minds and hearts and bodies. This is a good thing. Also, there's no good reason why it's illegal.

2:14:29 Just like they're allergic to everything. Yeah yeah and there's no way to tell there's probably people out there that are hypersensitive there might be like a gene because it's like changing the way people interface with life. being as afraid i guess i don't know i mean i i don't think we should be constantly judging and to cut into their profits, just like somebody would want to destroy that water machine because

2:16:15 Ibogaine. and that he had a serious Ibogaine addiction. The drug Hunter claimed Muskie was being treated with was a little known root called Tabernath Iboga or Ibogaine. Yeah, it's rough. But then afterwards, he had another psychedelic experience and he realized the He was such a trip I said there was a rumor yeah walk yeah, it's true for that role of the Shazam. I never thought I way, I had already passed on an audition for that role of Shazam.

2:19:19 And I get this email from my agency. I'm going to choose to love myself. think you could be there. Shazam. They haven't cast it yet. And so long story shorter, a week And this, this presented itself and it came into my life. I never intended to set out to write a book. I can barely, I have a hard enough have a platform and who have also struggled greatly can just keep normalizing this shit.

2:22:27 a book that i haven't read but i know that quote from a great quote yeah it's great right and by Never? Don't go near the edge. But you have those random thoughts. hit me up on my DMS and said, I have been struggling so badly. I read your book. It No, I wanted to. You're saying little lines here and there or whatever. But when is it out? Is it out now? It's out now. Yeah, I came out last Tuesday and
