Joe Rogan Experience #715 — Remi Warren Transcript

Transcript

0:00 We're live. Remy Warren. What's up, buddy? Hey, how's it going? like oh shit so we were just talking about Plus you're surrounded by hot chicks that are sweating Isn't it weird? Right when it came. Yeah, rough childhood. japanese yakuza style bodysuit things yeah it has to and you have to work out everything else before I think it was so you could see it, like, the low rider pants and the crop top shirt.

3:07 so true you can't have those you can't have those that's a no-go that's a definite no-go when it comes to that. Like, dude, I fucking Dice Clay was in here, and he had this very strong fanny pack. Did Kid Cudi wear that? There's rules. like right where the lower rib is. It's weird. It's weird rules. Good for you. So I'm not wearing, like, the... Right, but it's it just like there's a fashionista thing going on

6:01 And it's just crazy. so it doesn't look like what it is. Yeah, exactly. Not one of those, like, goofy, look like the swamp. If you have it, email it to Jamie if you have it. Like, I wore, like, a mask, a ghillie suit mask, like a shitty one. I'm invisible. you're so high up yeah but uh yeah i mean and then you get out of distance and it just looks Pull on up to this microphone so you can. Oh, yeah. Sorry about that. These things are super directional. Yep. Is that better? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The questions I get asked, it's like always gear. Pull on up to this microphone. Oh, yeah.

9:13 Yeah, the things I get asked the most, boots and camo patterns. I always get rifle hunters, like, come out on elk hunts and they're like, will this camouflage match where we're hunting? archery learning when when you can pull something like that off yeah exactly because the thing is it's gonna happen is that one of the biggest issues that you have? Because I know you take out really new hunters sometimes.

11:33 that's something you can't practice, I try to keep them calm and just, Beta blockers. Like I think archery, elk hunting, they're overwhelmed by by the uh the moment the the the nerves the adrenaline dump the whole thing Oh, okay. And they had these concert performers, like classical music performers. And I guarantee like animals can feel that tension.

14:46 They can feel, like when I was spearfishing and you dive down, you would consciously try to lower your heart rate and the fish would swim towards you. I mean, we just assume that animals have all the same sets of skills or the same sets of senses that we do. Wow. Really? Yeah, oh that makes sense because like when you see a cat when a cat's about the bus to move they start moving

16:49 Outdoor channel. There was a website that you could go to. So what is the KeepMyoutdoortv.com? whether it's some sort of a deal that they couldn't make Yeah, when people are going to that, they're actually recommending these rigged shows, It is. I was hooked instantly. No, well, you know the best of a barbecuer right now. Huh. Is it the same thing?

20:44 Okay. into the cup and the element is below the cup so the element heats it and starts a fire and it Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. There's no chemicals whatsoever. you take that out and then the fire goes right under the grill grates. It's amazing for steaks, Do they have a George Foreman smoker? fucking around with that green mountain grill i gave up on that completely I'm like oh this is so much easier and it's just as good like like it wasn't like there was

23:53 Like if you're at a campfire and you're hanging around with a bunch of people, I was in Africa one time just by myself, and it was – you hear these noises you've never heard before. Yeah, it's good. He's screaming. A black bear. That's got to suck. Like a tent that opens? In New Zealand, I use a Toyota, but here I've got and I've got a shelf in there.

27:04 So much fun. Because you're doing these crazy hunts where you're backpacking out deep, deep, deep into You got to get out of there on your own. You know, I find all kinds of cool places. There's a place in New Zealand that I like to go now that I found. So I try to minimize the amount of things that I have to bring because I'm well for filming it. this is a different show.

28:23 Do you send it to Tim? I spent an hour getting that shot filmed and he's like why did you do? This is one of my all-time like, say if I'm on Meat Eater or something Yeah. Yeah. It's imaginary people. It's a new element to add to the hunt. I mean, there was one hunt that I did recently. You know what I saw recently? I think a lot of states have rewritten the definition because people wanted to put cameras and things on their equipment, but I don't know.

33:08 I mean, you could rest it on a tripod like a rifle. but I feel like they just weren't as effective as a regular bow. And he could pull the arrow out every time like that shit should be blowing right through that mushy zombie head my question is how weapon of choice. I've seen... not only that, I could put another arrow on a bow. Like, um, when I shot my elk, I shot it,

35:17 don't see him as if you've ever tried to carry it's not made for carry walking How long before someone makes a crossbow that is in homage to Jesus? because there was one crossbow. He needed models for his crossbow. Yeah. What is that? There's no confusion there. Yet the amount of engineering that goes into these bows is crazy. and everything is just so it's there's such a science behind a simple tool like a bow but when

38:36 Leave it alone. It is. Because a rifle. By the time you get used to it, That's the problem. That's the worst. Well, it's so different than rifles. It is. Hannah. I can't imagine needing it in some ways, you know, because like think about a guy like but the new ones come out, bam, you gotta get a new one Yeah. I've noticed if I'm out there and I'm thinking about a lot of things,

40:45 You might be a vegetarian and no desire to eat meat. Just try archery for fun. You know, it is a really fun It's weird. And I think those people survived, the feeling that they must have had That's accentuated like multi-times or multi-fold for whatever reason. Not off her head, but like throw up aspirin and shoot him. I think the guy has to be one of the best shots in the world.

43:31 where you have the same racket for so long and you know the weight of a ball you right well that's the thing about instinctive shooting with a bow that YouTube that does all that crazy archery trickshot stuff and he carries the arrows in his fingers? And some people have tried to discredit him. whereas we always think of it as a quiver, he's never even heard of pussy.

46:46 hands, but it is accurate. Here's one where he's got multiple Don't try this at home. His name is Lars something or other. And now, look, he holds them in his hand. That's cool. And he's like, rifle hunting is just not fun. too because when i go on a rifle hunt a lot of times I'm going into a place that is so hard to hunt. but it's just—it's so challenging in the first place that the challenge is there.

50:23 Yeah. and see what happens. There's one episode of where some guy mistook him for an elk. They don't know what's behind the animal. between the way animals act when they're not hunted around people. And, uh, like i was in boulder and uh my wife and i were visiting uh this house Looking us right in the eye, a big-ass 10-pointer, like a big old mule deer, too.

53:09 we pulled over the side of the road. stay on this side of the road and he'll be on the other side. And then he bolted. Yeah, they, I don't know. when you, you enter into their world. I wonder if anybody else has ever even been right here. potato chip and starts eating it how does that mouse know that it can eat potato chips? some energy this isn't bad but it's it's not natural looking food it doesn't taste natural

56:57 potato chips? That's a very good question. You know, because I know animals gravitate towards those salt blocks. They could probably smell the salt. Not really. Really? and then there's some that'll make you sick and there's some that are just you can't really eat Yeah. You've got, like, cattails and dandelion like just common plants that are dandelion things my grandmother used to make salad yeah chicory um violets violets like the rose like a flower

59:35 It's not like plantains, but it's a plant. But once that plant base runs out, we can't digest the same things deer can. None. I mean, that throws a big monkey wrench into that whole theory. That's ideologically based. No. And not everyone can do that. but it's just for me. We fucked until we ran out of space, and now we have all these people piled up.

1:02:48 at all. That's not true. What if we just That's a bad day. to think man a full coconut like i bought one the other day from supermarket and when you got when for people who've never seen a coconut in the wild when you're buying them from a supermarket They'd go pick wild mangoes Wow. everywhere and everyone was terrified of it oh a bunch of guys on the crew got it yeah but i i

1:05:31 not touching it because Ronello was saying But you think about it, if you're touching the trees, Dodged a bullet on that one. Urushiol is also found in poison ivy and poison oak. And so people that we had on the show, well, I should say person, one dude, he ate a bunch of roaches and he had shellfish allergy It's never happened. Was there anything on there that you thought to yourself, I kind of want to try that?

1:08:01 So if they had boxes, like they'd have a cardboard box that was like, What's the deal with those 100-year-old eggs? Okay. So it is something that people normally eat. eating sheep's eyeballs we could serve sheep's eyeballs bugs placenta yeah placenta the believe Oh, dude. And I was like, yep, this is why people don't do it. It was a stagnant pool in northern Mexico.

1:11:29 He had giardia and Lyme disease at the same time. Yeah. That's why I put a slug in my mouth. But it was a younger bear. Wow. But there's that one element always kind of bums me out. You always have to worry about it having a parasite. It gets chewy. Should all be in jail for this. It's such a distinct flavor that the only way you get it from a store

1:15:15 Because the grass grows so easy and well over there. to do a lot of things so it is fairly clean meat i would consider it it's just weird that we have on a steak yeah i go that's god that was the best steak i ever had when you spend 350 000 on the house. Isn't it? And it's hippo swimming after him like just charging in the water after them and like

1:17:41 pH means professional hunter. It kind of freaks you out because you're in real tight quarters and it's in the Look at the size of that thing. where they shoot at the hippos. like he was shooting Two-twos. He's big. He's way too big to be a Bambi. So we associate Bambi with female. It's a boy named sue really it's like his dad knew he wouldn't be around so

1:20:58 Cows are fucked. It's such a culture shock for me It's completely different than what I'm used to. Yeah. 0.0. And even like that, well, I guess the town is essentially 47 bars down Main Street interspersed with sandwich and steak shops. Yeah. There's no traffic jams. Oh, it's beautiful. We saw mule deer when we were out there. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.

1:24:02 I'm not smarter than a fifth grader. you sit down. and to thousands and thousands of feet above sea level like crazy crazy place So, yeah, so the show is kind of, I see it as almost a natural history lesson And we can look at everything a certain animal does How do we do this? as humans modern footwear has dictated the way we now walk with our heel strike. We used to walk almost identical to the mountain lion with our toes first,

1:28:07 like i'm doing it wrong you know because in the the design like what you're saying of footwear it's got to make us faster is what it was explained to me. It's a natural way. It was just a piece of leather to keep the thorns and everything out. Do you wear like a thick, heavy mountain boot? Right. even guys that hunt a lot, You should look around and walk.

1:31:17 Yeah, the move is, there's no move. it's like a shelf that folds over, and then a ladder comes down. It's a little high. And it's so wet and you have that tent open most of the time just to kind of keep air flowing and keep everything more dry, it seems like. Some guys don't even bring their own water. Yeah, I like to go light sometimes at my own detriment.

1:34:07 Because everything's sort of ramped up because you need resources. When you walk through the bread aisle when you're hungry, you smell the bread. Yeah, you're doing more exploratory. Yeah. Yeah, and you basically were starving to death on TV. oh you bit into it on this show yeah um like when you did the black bear episode what did you do for I think that one's – like the way they have it set up, it could be – it's super legit in my opinion.

1:37:14 You'd be like, well, is this a hunting show? just sticks and twigs and it tastes like shit. Little salads, like little salads with no dressing. Now, when you ate the slug, I guess. I didn't even know slugs had intestines If they find a snail, my chickens are funny, man. They know there's some shit underneath that rock. But you ate everything raw. But it was good.

1:40:36 No. He's the guy that Somewhere cold as fuck where he swam under ice. With one breath. As soon as you get in there, you're threshold, once you are it's a weird but once you break the once you break through that threshold you're like And they kind of explain the whole stages of your body that you'll go through It makes people panic. to try to stop the covering your mouth and that's when they get an arm under your neck yeah and once you start to

1:44:34 Yeah, he, like, breathed in from a tank or something like that, right? Yeah, you just get... And humans have the exact same dive reflex that whales have. They come out of the gate like yoked. which kind of almost makes sense when you think about the fact that the high population centers are always around ports. Spearfishing is like not fishing. the top 10 things

1:47:05 you do the proper calculations like Bourdain was telling me he loves scuba So the amount of oxygen in that space changes. I've never been in deep water before. And the weight of your. So the first 33 feet, you kick down. you pretty much just float to the surface. So if you blacked start doing that? When did scuba diving first Just lead suit. Yep. I mean, it could be, I if you so i think it's like

1:51:07 like dive by a line that has markings on it, I guess. What was the longest time you ever held your breath while you were free diving and spearfishing? or just like for that episode we were in open ocean most everything i've done before was There's a video that somebody sent me from South Africa Cuts it in half Like everything from the gill's back is gone.

1:52:57 Great movie. that is cool and then the shark was gone we only saw it briefly i don't even remember what kind it Yeah, where people are swimming. But the surf competition where the dude, the shark grabs it. It'd be like you announcing UFC and a bear coming in and eating the dude i've heard that about bald eagles in alaska that they can see fish on the water yeah like fish that

1:55:43 Plus they have two centers of focus in their eye so they can But then we related that to using optics and being able to sit up on a mountaintop but I mean, I wonder if they have like a magnified vision. You throw up your eight power binoculars and it's like what an antelope sees. study okay hands down But because they have no bones, they can also adjust the shape instantaneously to match whatever's around them.

1:58:58 videos of just octopus camouflaging themselves uh they'll there's one clip that we use in the show where it goes up to this rock and instantly morphs itself. Right. And people don't really know that they do that. That's a plant. They do it instantaneously too. There's some videos of it where it does it so it's so fast within a second it changes so i had

2:01:08 we're looking at this thing, We can't, That is a... I had no idea. I had no idea. And it's not like a thing I almost feel bad eating them, but they're my favorite sushi. An octopus lives about two years. That's an octopus. things I discovered while doing this shit or just like It's going to air here in a few weeks. He pulls us off YouTube. Look at that.

2:04:35 this wasn't on the show so I don't mind So it like distracted us by grabbing the wand. Look at that, man. Dude, if you saw that on the ground, if something just popped up like that on the ground and looked like that, Black and white stripes. That's the fucked up thing about it They'll jack crabs and lobsters and shit and they just engulf them and then inside of them. They have this beak

2:07:30 Well, there's quite a few species of like even giant squid that we've never actually seen alive. did if they found out they could eat people I mean look a person especially We're just working. You know, the idea that, well, the humans are our friends. Many times bigger than this fucking room we're in, man. Is that just its head? Ichthysaur. So I was reading this thing about um

2:10:31 wow yeah yeah when we die, most likely we will not be fossils. There were some animal. you're not finding so that yeah so you see if you find the um what what the number is because Like, good luck finding them. And it was like humanoid. where they said, nope, this is a totally different thing. and there's a war between us. Exactly. If they can eat you, they definitely want to eat you. They don't not want to eat you because you have a beard and you

2:14:13 at the end of that movie... they stay with the same pod for life, them in a tank and fat people eat And one of them was whales, that the Japanese had made this idea, they had this idea, well, they they that's what sustains them so when they started hunting the whale it actually lowered the It's an impossible thing because we've already affected Well, there was lions.

2:17:45 Oh, we did that. Could have been hunting from other predators as well. that there was some sort of a mass extinction event worldwide And then it's all basically asserting. And it makes sense that natural disasters did it. it cuts down around 12,000 years. We've got to make our own bows. We're going to have to start eating them. any access to hard drives.

2:21:50 I'm still not sure that this phone isn't somewhat magic. And people's curiosity is natural. forge metal and this monkey figures out how to write code and they all get together and next earth into nuclear winter for a long period of time most of the plants died most the animals house because he's got canned peaches and bullets was it in indonesia toba in indonesia yeah so that

2:24:30 yeah when it comes to all this stuff That's what I think. But Hoyt has to come up with a new bow every year. Yeah, you'll be out there with a bugle. And when it's over, you get to, it's way cooler than a video game, and it's real. And when it's over, you get to eat. And it's screaming. Oh, yeah. There's just two trees together. And when we went out on this trail, we got to this place where these elk were fighting.

2:27:33 anywhere where there's elk are, Well, the sounds that they make, if you've never heard them before. I mean, the cows even make a weird high pitched. Yeah, beagling. Yeah, they sound like lions. Yeah. Where they evolved uniformly to have these super similar, bizarre, tree-like growth growing out of their head that they only use when they're fucking.

2:30:13 Huge, 1,000-pound dead elk with holes in his body. He's not even involved in the fight. us going like look they're in dudes are into belly shirts now they're like that's so weird There's some crazy stuff. If we didn't know octopus existed and we're like, there's this animal in the ocean that shape shifts and changes colors and inks and can look like other animals.

2:31:54 What is that? but even if it does the most amazing thing we've never say the frog did the same thing the octopus but we would just open a hairy monkey. Yeah, and he hates John Lithgow. I love that guy, but the guy he goes with, though, And he's talking about the family groups and he knows their intricacies and he could show me and he wants me to come out there and film it for solo.

2:33:41 you either believe this bullshit or you're just a straight-up liar I just did. My thought is, I'm out in some wild places a lot. I'm like, okay, well, it's there, whatever, I guess. What we think is he probably fell on his head while he was out. once and I thought I saw a wolf. It looks huge. And they were trying to figure out what it is. they're, they're having a lot of problems with them because they can't figure out what the real

2:36:54 You haven't? They do DNA samples, but before that... is just a dense forest with no fucking people anywhere there and a shitload of bears and a shitload of moose and a A lot of people don't like the idea of baiting. because you'll never find them, and they set up these bait stations they get these bears accustomed to coming into these one areas to Own the place.

2:39:18 and they'll throw them in the areas where the grizzlies are just to try to maintain them in that area, They're pretty brazen. when they catch them eating people's garbage because once they find garbage like that's their His name was Gene Moe. stories and i was just like i'm tracking down some of these bears this bear story and so he's one point he's just like thought he was done he's like yelling at the bear bear comes back and mauls

2:42:27 They take him to this. Ended up keeping like – he ended up buying the bear back at an auction. They made like a rug thing. next to it on the wall it was a cool experience on the wall. It was a cool experience. It was a cool experience hearing the story firsthand. Just buck knifed it. been really smart with his arms in his legs too kicking and oh fucking christ god this is just so

2:44:34 Yeah. Yeah. Deer in backyard and it's a brown bear's got him The bear's thinking, Yeah. It's a black bear, yeah. That's a lady that climbed over the fence. No. Yeah, well, now things are changing because there's a season for them and everything. They need that new growth. the animals that have ever existed 90 something percent of everything that's ever existed is

2:49:35 It's too bad. Not much. I think that's a more recent debate. Yeah. They set traps for elk. And that's, they have a lot of, Persistence hunting. If you chase it, you'll see their tongues are hanging out. I would have never imagined that because when I see people packing out with horses, I'm like, well, that's because the horses don't get tired. you just don't push them either right like you take it slow and walk and yeah we're about out

2:53:19 Yeah, it's apexpredator.tv. I had a promo code They figured it out. Oh, beautiful. That's the intro. Oh, are they really? All right. love. See ya.
