0:00 The Joe Rogan Experience. experience really weird like all throughout my life like I've taken all I don't know why this is two portions. I just, yeah, I'm trying half. Yeah. 10 what? And I go, dude, you're getting high as fuck i was i was so high on 10 i However, I do understand if people get sick on it. I reserve one That pen, what does it mean to you?

3:44 I know, I know. but they, well, I'd like to, but like the analysis loop is so, I'll try it. My career is interesting, but I have a lot of fear. You're just in an observational state. Then I'm playing again. There's been a little bit of that, but I want to do it myself just to see. field surgery something happens on the battlefield well i know in vietnam all the the burn victims

6:59 Reggie Watts and Joe Rogan. It's all misinformation. research, ketamine was characterized as a disassociative anesthetic. interesting yeah i remember when nyquil had codeine in it and one time i was sick And I was like, I wanted to try it, but I was like, I don't know. I just didn't. But it was funny. Was theips of it and i was like i wanted to try it but i was like i

9:21 You definitely can't if people are filming you with their phones. There's good and bad like, the wars Yeah, which is insane. Should have never seen that. They do fantasize about things that they see. I know. does uh another one what's the next war that starts they're always sparking up they're always infinite wealth, right? It's like wealth amassing, but, but so it has a value system,

13:14 But whenever I see any of these conflicts or even a conflict in my own neighborhood or my neighbors arguing over, it's about a property line or it's about, um, you didn't do this or Socialism. Yeah. I don't know enough. social systems. But you're talking about like full on socialism. Yeah. I mean, I'm not, If you don't know about him, just check him out.

15:40 And I think we may see a human AI synergistic government, low, at least low level and all those three things take up so much of my fucking time my whole day today has been having had i had a term i don't know if it exists but i call it corporate corporates and most people in for because there is no excuse for any of us being all the inequity we see in all of the,

19:16 His idea that I thought was really fascinating when I talked to him. Student debt, student loan debt is fucking insane because you're taking these vulnerable is like anytime someone's in survival mode, they're in a crisis state. They're less likely stuff and people are just going to freeload, it's like, there's going to be, there might like some of the arguments are like, well, you know, you're just giving away stuff and people are just going to freeload. It's like there's going to be there might be some of that.

21:51 and we don't do that. great again make less losers what's the best way to make less losers give people opportunities from Anybody who's listening to this that hasn't committed murder or robbed people, a lot of it is luck. around that all the time in the babies in the womb that baby comes out triggered like ready to go The loss of life in America is comparable to all kinds of wars

24:32 and that the middle class is just getting squeezed. but spoke French. Low pricing. Oh really? What did they offer? They offered 1.2 million on top of the adjusted asking price with no waiving all the inspections, contingents. And it was cash. That happened to me three times. And I thought about that, They're going to be a rancher. I'm like, just visit.

26:52 And now it's like almost militant now. But I'm just saying that it got harsher because of this show and how it changed the economy in Bozeman. I think a lot of people don't understand what they're getting into it is on the border of Canada son Great Falls, man. And you say, give it a simple thing. It's all progress, Reggie. They had these old black and white photos where it was all dirt roads and orchards.

29:26 now it's bumper to bumper traffic and spray paint and cement everywhere i know i know my i have a But she's terrified, or she said, you know, I've had friends' cars broken into, you know, those types of things. You're not going to have access to the foods that you want, but you're going to get this, That's all real. It's like, I don't think the answer was less police.

32:11 Well, it's also a problem that people have an opinion based on an ideology that they subscribe to. Yes, I always call it the 10% rule like I may believe in something and and think about it and go I have religious friends. bit more rational that works for more people. What's stunning how emotionally attached people objective and fair. Those are great conversations because they're stimulating. I get to see how you

35:01 And I'm always practicing different hacks. and i'm not i'm not into winning right it's like i i want i just want to i want to come to an about the perspective from people who are, you know, it was a police issue. And I was saying, And I'm not saying I'm not saying the opposite of what you're talking about. they aren't even what they are necessarily in any given moment because when we get information that

37:39 And they're just like, oh, no, but check this out. Okay. So that, so you feel that, that like reaffirm and then have you considered, Like, you know. Totally. And it's, it's funny. It's like, I have this concept where I talk about, um, I don't, you're talking about encryption it's asymmetrical there's no way you're hacking that but you just has been kind of consistent like that.

40:59 And you're like, but we're playing ping pong, man. No, no, no, fucking tennis. You got to go, Yeah, be as nice as you can. I respect you, man. Well, that's the thing too. and I'm just like, hey, what's going on? something that i'm expecting a certain reaction from that generally i get when i do it and then I mean, and I know it's hard to see for some people,

43:31 generally someone will be like, because you're going to control the situation. It's like you become stronger when you become better at collaborating. And just like, I love it because it's like, Um, whatever. I know. Yeah, like the reason why they can say those things to you So for me, when I see art, it's like we're all intersected by art. Can I help you?

46:12 Extending their disappointment with life in themselves onto those people and then they start motivating and just guys guys guys And I know that seems like, well, you got a problem. And just a touch of it, just a touch of it. And I run into someone and they're taking too long to talk you know they're just blobbing and blah okay get to the fucking point

47:55 I'd be like, I see where you're coming from. I see what you're saying, like getting to the point now let's move to the next thing. That's true. Like the other night I met I was at Sarah Silverman's rooftop party and it was like all these amazing people were up there. And anyways, Owen Wilson was up there. or I, at this point, any, the way anybody behaves towards me, I'm not really shocked. I've seen

50:29 way i can do it it's it's because i have to give people a little bit of time i don't want them to It's like nothing changed. oh, maybe I can incorporate a little bit. get things from me and trying to get me to do things for the, You don't block them. Oh, okay. I think some of my friends who have to change their numbers, I mean, you're dealing with Yeah, it's like I don't really, what are they going to ask me?

52:32 you don't think, are you trying to get something you're talking about. Everybody's trying to do something with that guy. And also social success. she's like, it's okay to be a little bit, It's like if someone wants to talk to you about music and they're saying a bunch of nonsense, you're like, hey, I'm actually a musician. And I'm like, well, at least I'll teach you something without saying like, let me teach

55:05 I get in martial arts conversations with people that have some ridiculous ideas and I have to say, stop. I don't like that. Yeah. No, I've been asked to do them. that do that are excellent i'm not needed you know it's like yeah you know someone's not a comic God, that's, I could not imagine. What's your book about? It's an autobiography about me growing up.

57:07 Oh, there it is. A Tale of Coming Home Again. Oh, come on. But yes, you're right. I had Pee Wee Herman do my voice. And it's about my high school times, which, as you know, the 80s were a crazy time, and we did crazy stuff. It's fascinating to listen to how people grew up and what they think and how they developed their thought process. The new one.

59:27 I love it. So that's Anson right there. Anson's awesome. he's done a lot of stuff, is there, of course they have the ship's computer, Isn't it funny that they never even thought of a phone that would work from space? I know. it's like, comes into them That's, that's the funnest part. There's just over with never. Well, things that you're supposed to be functional for.

1:02:21 No, I mean it's kind of like it's for therapeutic reasons. I didn't know you were high. It's like, no, no, I was completely peaking on acid. And there's something about like trying to find your center Well, it's also you're comfortable with that state. Totally. Here's a bump and bump. dosing that's always my my line but it's true people will be like oh it was just like you said

1:05:17 No. In the Okay, okay, gotcha. The thing about those nasal sprays is It's quite the challenge. Oh, Oh, access because I don't drink I just basically do you know these feel-frees and like uh weed is like a Brazilian rainforest. And we just, I sat cross-legged and I put my hands like this and I just, I became So like, just like, you know, a couple, you know, three bumps or whatever, you know, whatever

1:08:54 on. We started having a conversation back and forth and Mason can attest to it. Cause he heard It's not telepathy. Yeah. oxidase uh in the gut and that's what makes uh dimethyltryptamine orally active. Oh, right. And so, harming, so when they first experienced these telepathic experiences. discovered as harming. So been it had already been discovered as

1:11:20 substance that we're talking about, but I've had experiences where you're i don't know what it is like i've done crazy stuff where i don't have the greatest knees and and so i'm always like knees and the knock feed is how does that work so knock need you know it's like you're kind Yeah, and so it makes their legs go out. I would. trying to make sure that my feet are in line.

1:13:50 like it's kind of aligning something the more I do that. But, um, you should probably do Hindu And so you breathe in like this, like that. And then because of that, it really strengthens the muscles that are supportive muscles of your knee. I got you. There's a, there's a great guy out there. It's not strong enough. That's like the one, probably the area that I think about the most. Like I don't have a flexibility.

1:16:42 And just something, it wasn't like a major, or anything like that, just it didn't quite feel right after a certain strengthen your legs with body weight exercises. But I also do lunges with dumbbells and things like that. That's something about my Instagram search algorithms. so get off those things. So all those things, they make you use your body as one thing.

1:18:58 shitting on them if you want to get bigger and you want to look I did, but it was so expensive. with like metabolic health and so i was working with them they've given me a free couple free And it's, like, 1 o'clock in the morning. I know. A little something. need to get out of my uh i should work out and then like i go on the phone and it's like oh it's

1:21:53 That's that's that's my like because I love to dance. Because isolated workouts, it's cool. And also you're outside and hopefully you have good scenery. But mostly I'm just about, I want to do the stuff that I want to do and feel good about it. Oh, sick. You just brought all of them? You have a GT3 RS? It's so fast and so light It's insane downforce, and it's an incredible car.

1:24:16 So it's a full-on track car that you could drive in the street. Yeah. Yeah, I think so. When it went in the race for that guy's head or whatever. shifter is the way to go oh man in the on the street i really that's my car oh it's gorgeous Plus it's got that 60s vibe to it That thing's amazing. national forest you know angel's crest so going up to the you know, the Angeles National Forest, you know, Angeles Crest.

1:26:47 Motorcycle was behind me and he thought he was just going to decimate me or you lost me. 2022 oh so I have both those damn the the Turbo S is a nasty monster and but it's more analog So the weight distribution is amazing. when it's going into a corner. That's gonna be insane. Yeah, all right. It might it was that right? Yeah, the 7 god that's gonna be insane yeah yeah or uh am i is

1:28:48 The Tesla X. Okay. It just, like, lands back on its side. Man. So all the weights at the bottom of the thing, it's just like, whoop, boom. Right. Always like lands back on its side. It always comes back. I bet you, yeah. Whoa, this thing's fast. It's crazy, right? And you just not even the non-platte or even a platte. You're driving it. Whoa, this thing's fast.

1:29:58 The interior is perfect. They know how much passion I have about their cars and I'm so excited about their electric Haven't seen that? Their claim, And that's all California made. How reliable are these? their their load x lotus engineers um it's it's insane yeah and uh my uh my friend johnny uh do you get one though do you have to get it online uh no they have dealership dealers fixes

1:32:50 Taycan's better looking. That's my, I love that. And then he doesn't have the carbon fiber or sorry, I got 20 tenths on everything. What is e-fuel? But the way it's produced is zero, uses zero emissions. or when you go into sport mode, it turns on. amazing it makes me want to be in it right now but like that sounds fucking dope so it's just That's yours.

1:36:43 then I'm into it, especially when you got a three motor three motor going on right and that sounds like a cool spaceship type electric One of the things that Jeremy Clarkson pointed out You can't rev it because the particulate filters are so strong because of the EU regulations. cleans the air and polluted city less like like la while i have seen concept cars that clean there

1:38:50 This is like a small, efficient, easy-to-use vacuum cleaner. I don't know if that's true, though. Horrible. Create problems. But to do that, you're like. It's gross. They have to create drama. Yeah. Well, create problems. And I think Elon lost in court because I think part of the show is that it's Well, you know what? Yeah, I remember seeing that and I was like, oh, really?

1:40:16 I'm going to wait a while to get it down. Oh, it was the early, early Tesla. I did not know that. If it comes out if they make the Tesla Roadster the way that Elon showed it when they did that demo, right? We'll see. Because the Lucid, the cockpit, it's a good looking car. Well, it looks like a Tesla sports car is what it looks like. Dude, have you seen it in real life?

1:42:23 Be like Joe's trying too hard. How about the alpha wolf what's that uh that's a sick electric truck you're gonna Look at that smooth piece across the front. It's like an old. No, it's not good But the fact that it's a it's it's it looks very cool it's just like a good looking truck and i like um they're Performance, tires. Look at that. Whoa. There you go.

1:45:06 oh ooh connects to it Yeah, it's slow shit though. Yeah, but you know it's not everything it can't be perfect. Oh stop And there's that other small electric truck. there'll be new battery chemistry. I mean, look at more range on that. I mean, it's like over time, they'll be new to battery chemistry. because you're going to need to, I mean, when it came out, I was like,

1:46:46 I saw it in real life, and I was like, this is the coolest fucking thing I've ever seen. I don't think you're going to like it. Look at that. You'd have to see how it handles and all that stuff electric car they're not using so they're recreating What is it called? Check that out. Charge cars. But I mean, look at that shit. Yeah, I don't want a silent 67 Mustang.

1:48:53 It looks pretty dope. Oh, God, you can't. It's a vacuum car. And it got center driving position. using the same fan. A million a piece. The Spielberg, how do you say it? shorter than a Chevrolet Spark, millions, and he was just like, I want to make this car. Because I rode with- That's what they're- I'm going to come out just to see that car. It doesn't say how long it goes, though.

1:52:46 And when it came out, I was like, Insane. How do the fans work? I forget his name. Wow. Like that moment in Ford versus Ferrari, you know, where the guy's like, I need a moment. Wow. It's a car, but it's like, it's a fucking human body. It's a real race car. That's totally my thing. Like in general, it doesn't. I love knives. And then when you see the preposterous way this thing fucking maneuvers and handles.

1:56:22 He's the guy who designed the F1, the McLaren. Well, no, it's not a fan car. Look how low it is. but I mean, look at that stick shift. So it's a full gas so it's a full gas yeah the other one that I've watched so many interviews and everything is approved by him Wow. them but you know i click on that video so i can see that video yeah that's pretty sick does it

1:59:22 Why is this video a map? so it depressurizes the zone behind the car so that you don't need a spoiler for downforce. Tell them to deal with it. Wow. That's crazy. You know, I love them. We can't get faster than blacking out. That someone could black out from a car. We did that. No. They don't? Yeah, these guys are like stout, and they have to be stout in order to pilot that thing because you have to have like muscles right

2:03:22 They would all stand outside of their planes i've seen air show crashes where they fuck up and those are horrific oh man i mean yeah i don't want They're like, Two planes facing each other, touches the other one, he pulled out safely. You know, I don't know. is man i mean it's either natural phenomenon or it's something that's been here a long time um or they're probes uh from that are triggered by a certain i don't know

2:06:27 It just went into the ocean at the same, it's still traveling at the same rate that it was traveling in the air. You know, like there's like other things bleeding through. And like we're seeing things that don't have any, that don't adhere to the laws of physics because they aren't really in our physical realm in a way. Is it weird? That's weird. and two friends were ahead of me and i kind of just looked to my right stopped looked to my right

2:08:41 tell them what i was looking at i said tell me what you see they described what i was seeing i don't know what it was wow but i've heard other stories about Not a joke, but whatever it was. I'm exactly where you are. san diego off the east coast where they have these these uh restricted areas that's where That's the weird thing. Right. That's the thing where I'm like hear about sightings, like even in the 1800s, 1700s. That's the weird thing.

2:11:28 Really? So there's probably multiple things going on simultaneously that's what i'm saying yeah i i do not doubt that This dude, he basically just recounts stories of paranormal, And the reverberance, there was a reverberance that would indicate that it's possibly hollow. did some experiments on Earth or whatever, I'm guessing like it's a tenth yeah that's what i'm guessing but yeah it's i

2:14:30 Hmm. moon missions I mean I felt hilarious if it was. But yeah, it's like you know it's like I like, I'm like, well. Scientists said the moon rings like a bell. Right. Surprisingly, it's not based on folklore. The PSE's seismometers recorded the resulting vibrations, and then the Japanese, or not, I mean, I mean, favorite. I just think it's so annoying.

2:17:25 a human biological organism and having moon landings for If we don't, then fine. First of all, it's 1969. Well, if they were supposed to be doing it so that they could beat Russia in the moon missions. We won it and then we were done. which is not past the magnetosphere, I just have a feeling that it probably will. Yeah. George H. Herbert Walker Bush said we were going to go to the moon.

2:20:19 Yeah, I don't care about Mars so much, but the moon makes sense. I don't know what will. Yeah. Boundaries and borders and disputes over resources and all that shit. That's just you lose perspective of the magic of what you are on this organic spaceship that's hurling through the cosmos. It is crazy. Just crazy. Monk fruit's pretty good, though, man.

2:22:31 i just was like reaching in the bag just count chocula remember count chocula all of it cookie sort of. You're not going to get a healthy version of an fake chicken is no that that i portobello burger good kidding so good so good yeah and you don't have to lie to yourself that So that's chicken that was made in a laboratory. i think the only company that's ready to go to market interesting and they just got fda approval

2:25:27 yes. and also ethical as well. Cause I like to pretend I'm an astronaut. Don't you like sitting down for a meal? really in shape in my later 20s and then i did it again when i first moved to la there's that new burger place. Oh, You know, like I get this weird anxiety about it. in control of my my appetite and that feels good because then if I do go off one day a week,

2:28:23 because your body's able to burn fat? I don't know. idea is keep my old number and use it for social media when i need to do stuff yeah and then with Not a food. the part where I'm like, I need to get into a mindset where I know this is going to be But, but I felt okay about it. I'm in my 50s. Yeah. Yeah. I know. Yeah. Yeah. Or freeze it. That's great.

2:32:44 Because it lightens it a little bit. Because nothing I hate worse'm like keto ish you know that's good because it let it lightens I come here to get my diet on track. There is, but I really love a trainer this i love going like four days a week going to a trainer and getting that relationship going and they're like obsessed with goals and i'm like No, I'm going to do,

2:34:02 That's true. I know, but I'm terrible. And then taking all the weight off of you. Oh my God. He's a nice guy. No, he's. But, I know. Wink, wink. Love you, Kumail. He's a nice guy. Injecting, yeah, into the fat, into the stomach fat. i'm i've learned how to be happy with my body do you know how many people do that they get fit so That's what I want.

2:36:08 beautiful. And it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. I appreciate This is a very fixable problem. This isn't like the war in the Middle East. No, very fixable problem. Yeah. War in Many, many. I mean, I don't know. Domino's because you ordered 10 pizzas a day Quality regulations, those are important. Because all the people that tell you that psychedelics should be illegal are not doing

2:38:38 gut you can't even open up a jar of mayonnaise shut the fuck up because it's like you gotta That to me is so promising and so important. And one of the things that you're seeing now that I think is really incredible is people on the right, right-wing people that recognize because they have friends that are in the military that have come back and have done whether it's psilocybin studies or whether, you know, psilocybin therapy or ayahuasca.

2:40:01 100% I mean it's like psychedelics have been part of our culture since human and consciousness existence forever and there's a reason for it and the reason for it show with Flaming Lips. like severe mental issues no no no for any uh no people that have a hard time with regular reality And it's like I've had to learn how to be a lot more compassionate about it because sometimes I'm like, no, they're just faking it.

2:42:14 Yeah. Yeah, that's Reggie Watts, Getting into the Solution. Have you been doing clubs a lot? And that's exactly what it is. I hate fucking like being backstage chatting's fine. That's what I love. When we designed it and that was a projection room it's for you it's for us it's for the art form it really is for us. Yeah. Okay, it's for you. It's for us. It's for the art form. I know. It really is.

2:44:40 Of course. Oh, wow. I'm like, that's where you want to go. Everything about it is like, it's great for the audience and great for the performer. Oh, wow. And that gave you room for the thing downstairs. I mean, come on, man. Thank you. I love you too, man. Bye.
