You don't talk about JRE gang. has gone crazy you pay attention to that absolutely i did my whole show about it last week on my new podcast, which we're going to do an We're so down with the hip social future. but hashtags are interesting because if you ever go to hashtags, you ever go to like hashtag

2:00 When you say something, then you get taken out of context. I'm part of the hashtag about fascism without even choosing it. So people use that. So I just responded with a link to the Oxford Dictionary, which also includes the word right-wing in it. When you were talking about how here we are in the valley, Practiced that all day. are the same as all these fucked up parts of north africa and israel and palestine and

5:41 But religion and politics just has an endless capacity to to screw things up you could If you're on the extreme left or the extreme right, you're in a tribe. If you're on the extreme left or the extreme right, you're in a tribe. When you talk It's religion. To people who haven't seen it, she wanted to have the Colbert report canceled because He plays an extreme left-wing kind of goofy character.

7:46 Yeah, I do. He was going to set up a charity Or whatever. And in using the word, all these students are trying to Absolutely not. So it's possible that someone felt like an initial kind of reaction of, oh my God, I And so, like, I was amazed by the power of that word I mean, I was taught since the earliest days that racism is terrible. was settled than there is here towards native americans i sort of regard native americans as

11:21 And, you know, you'll see Aboriginal flags flying on Parliament House alongside the Australian flag. But I don't think they had flags. biopolitically correct social justice warriors, We have computers and the internet. rabbits are doing a good job did you just Joe Rogan, did you just compare Aboriginal Australians to rabbits? Like, I made a Hitler analogy the other day about, I was talking to, who was it, Donny Deutsch? Do you know that guy?

13:58 is flawed, and I was using an analogy to do so. And he has that. my grandmother was yeah, This was in like the 50s. You couldn't kill them. Wow. everybody was pretty fucked up back then i think it's very difficult for us to understand in before that, they didn't even have fucking trains. Oh, I'm at the birthplace of Western civilization. They induce labor.

17:01 Yeah, 100%. A hundred years, yes. The Depression hadn't happened. Effectively monkeys. And you'd put them in a movie theater and they would look just like you or I. skin and hair, so they're just kind of guessing It's not really give and take. What's crazy and call it 300,000 years ago, 3000 of your grandmas. That's a good spot to look at. themselves with was so parochial and they knew so little yeah i mean, even just back to the Middle Ages. I mean, think about having 50 of my...

21:00 50. That's a good one. So how many people do you fit in a big stadium? So I don't even know what that would be now because Etihad wasn't a big airline back then. Yeah, that's right. what is that like when it's filled that must be insane super loud uh the way i mean the way they So let's say 100,000 stadium, right? 65 million years ago, apparently we were a type of almost like a shrew-looking rodent.

23:16 The crazy thing is that the science deniers, the evolution deniers, Yeah. We'll talk about how and the page before that is your mother's photo, But as you flip through the pages of this book, it's such a thick book that over time, the growth of animals death of animals of, plants and things along those lines. And I've gotten to that age where I don't really care about it.

26:40 Denying what? that like you know age is on the inside because i can feel that now at this age i just have to do a you might. It's not a big deal Going You gotta exercise Hormone supplementation and going to the doctors and new inventions and cryotherapy Nature's like, you must have had kids by now, right? Trying to keep the cum inside them and re-vigorate their body.

29:21 I come internally. No, there's a particular muscle there, which apparently if you learn to build it up like we're doing exercises throughout the day then you can it Yeah. Had a Thai stripper fire darts from the other side of the room out of her pussy and pop a balloon that I was holding over my head. Like, what? Does she have her elbows to the back of her knees, and she's got her pussy up in the air?

31:28 What? Bent knees, To be honest, Joe, I wasn't focused on her fucking position. That's what's confusing about that. Isn't it amazing what people will do if you're confronted with a town filled with drunk tourists You have to figure out how to stand out. do you go to thailand a lot yeah thailand is i i like to say that thailand is sort of our mexico then you've got to add on an extra six hours just to get out of Australian airspace.

34:14 I know you were, yeah, that whole upset, right? If you go north, you can get there. It really is. Yep. Plenty of land to- Filled with box jellyfish, and they'll say don't go in the water might the box jellyfish are there does that mean? It's the goddamn water. I didn't go in the fucking water. if it's connected to where the great white sharks live.

36:23 but only at a certain time of the year, would you go during a full moon? Yeah, there you go. Oh, that's one of those, they have a bucket of like vinegar. And they do the same thing as the box jellyfish, crossbones on that shit. Yeah, there you go. anymore. It's like the Thai lady with the ping pong balls coming out of her pussy. We're a very urbanized country.

38:56 They know how to live. They're everywhere. which will just fucking kill you. Because every local medical center has all the antivenoms. and spit it out and identify what the snake was. And, you know, otherwise you're going to watch your dog die because they swell up. It's just expensive. I mean, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. You shouldn't have to pay for the army.

42:29 should we buy everyone a car? Yes. Didn't he lose a lot of weight, though, when he got on Oxycontins? That's not... It's really easy to swallow those pills. he was taking. He was taking so much that... going deaf. But he had He was in Florida. and like drawing uh a kind of a line of logical fallacies in such a way that you end up thinking where he starts with something simple. He's like

46:02 a Russian person There's other reasons why women take birth control. Not that there's anything wrong with being a fat fuck. get off sugar and simple term. We'll just do a little bit of a workout and you get them on the elliptical machine and just go Whoa. And this is the only demographic group in America where the numbers are going up. Jacob Stone.

49:06 on him. No, fucker's a good that are anything other than guilt Right? of bullshit at the moment to live today. People had to read it and recommend it. Today, any fucking dipshit can start a hashtag activist, you know, some sort of a, you could I mean, the flattening and the fact that I don't have to go and talk to a network executive or a radio station owner about doing my podcast.

52:04 So the left used to be agitated Not just the 1920s. Like the spades. No. this famous speech for women's rights, Hashtag. Someone else says... over the course of history. Yeah. That's the problem. and it just ends up spiraling and not the fight against slavery in America? like if you quote the original piece that it was taken from, It's all it is. Fucking Christ, enough. What we need is wolves. We need wolves at the gates. What we need is a fucking winter We need winters coming

57:02 And I hate to say this The firemen came. And there's all these producers. she was literally just blacking out on the concrete. She took a big hit, and you see her eyes fluttering, and she just gave up. policemen and that they really felt it like in a deep real way like thank you thank you for what There was a feeling of vulnerability that existed because we had recognized a real problem.

59:53 well, where were you? Why didn't anybody acknowledge the attacks in Nigeria? 2012 phenomenon or something, right? to see a soccer game, sitting in a restaurant, than they are for parts of the world where world, that's where the issue lies. And as a consequence, they're just a mush of ignorance and like parochialism. Well, I would like to think that there's a market for smart conversations

1:03:22 they've been through. When we talk about all that sort of stuff, some people are actually, you know, significant People are problematic. They get to know you. Whereas CNN, it's at the fucking airport. We have to be able to do better than we are, though. You know, there's like, they're a good, I mean, PBS does a great job. He could be a robot. But here's, on your point about what people are going to watch and seek out, there's a

1:05:58 when they didn't cover Beirut? Well, at some point, you have to, clicks so then they downgrade it and it ends up falling back onto the world and they're going to paint a picture. That's really what it's all about. It's from 2006 during the Israeli war against Hezbollah. That's interesting. So get on the fucking ball, Angelina. And now I don't know what to talk about Islam as well. Like the difficulty is what are you – I'm afraid of all of the right-wingers taking – my greatest fear about terrorism is that we end up living in like a quasi-fascist state because we overreact so much that every – like I got a little nephew who's two years old.

1:09:20 Or are we going to be so cowed either one way or the other where either we take our Trump id and oppress Muslims, which only exacerbates the problem, or on the other hand, we become social justice warriors who are like, this has nothing to do with Islam. and i'm i'm not intolerant i'm not xenophobic i'm certainly not racist or islamophobic but how do

1:10:42 In Sweden now, the third largest party of... Yeah, exactly. They still believe in having Come on over. stances. And I think what's going to happen is technology, as it becomes more and more manner. access information is going to seem absolutely ridiculous. it's bad, but it's good. of the fucking house and go out onto our own. And that that's why they're overreacting and freaking out and walking through the fucking

1:14:34 I mean, I take your point. My concern is whether or not there is a direct correlation between upgrading the means of more divided than we've ever been But I think one of the reasons why they're so active now, And I think that that's what we're experiencing when people have to apologize for things they would never have to apologize before. It's fat shaming now.

1:17:45 Like, whether or not you agree with them or not, you have to understand that it's just In terms of social justice warriors in the United States, I hope that you're right that what they think that they're doing is being an extension of the great traditions of civil rights in America. and for other people's ideas about things, and she's a professor of political science

1:19:25 kicking back. I was like getting out the popcorn, listen to Joe. So in the general social survey, and people in their 30s are more tolerant than people in their 20s. And when people in their They're more tolerant towards homosexuals and atheists, but that's because they like racist beliefs. And then instead of becoming educated or becoming enlightened, they go

1:22:00 Well, enough people that she has to put out a press release about it i think like i don't think there's anything i think we are better off living in a society where bad ideas are exposed to They're going to increasingly self-segregate into their own little communities online. very gullible or very impressionable young people. And sometimes those... I've expressed this before on the podcast, that I listen to these

1:24:03 But I watch these people to have someone who knows what the truth is and who knows what the right path is. I have good friends that I love, but I have to talk to them, Just like it says, don't blow guys. What's the problem here? people traded it back and forth. And the way to simplify things is to put it all in God's hands. I mean, man, I love that guy.

1:27:46 I'll go back and listen to them. Yeah, yeah. he's like, you go there even to this day and you talk to a Bosnian Muslim that I'm drawing just as i'm only Right? In that sense, I think extreme liberalism is, in a sense, like extreme conservatism, is a religion, in a sense. And I think that there's also an issue in communication through language and communication through words

1:31:03 you're discussing. Yeah, and that's why podcasts are so unique in a way How do I get it out there in a way Because the moment I say anything remotely suggesting, like the day after the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris, Howard Dean went on Morning Joe on MSNBC and said, these guys are about as So we can't keep litigating whether or not they're theologically correct

1:33:52 We have to not be sending Southwest flights back to the gate as it was the other day because two people were speaking Arabic and watching a video about what's going on in the wake of the Paris attacks or something. The arguments against it come up. the middle of it, it doesn't seem like any progress is happening at all. But ultimately, I got to pick up my kid in a little bit.

1:35:35 Underscores. I don't even remember. Holla!
