Joe Rogan Experience #2031 - Luis J. Gomez

[Music]. by night. are we on are We son are we on. yeah all right I don't know if we were. talking on the podcasters being dudes. um that's the beautiful thing about. podcasts it really is yeah it's kind of. just hanging yeah. um but yeah I I smoked weed since I was. like 17. um and it was illegal and you just you.

all these like formative years. spending my life being afraid that a cop. was going to come and arrest me I've. been arrested for smoking weed like 10. times in New York City wow because I'm. an idiot and I just you know all right. and it's just a game of numbers I would. just we would roll a blunt in the park. you smoke it and every time for some. reason the cop would always take me all. my friends they'd be like you know what. I gotta take one of you it was always. and I'm the only Brown kid in the group. so every single time they were like. we're gonna take you and then they take. you to Central Bookings for a day and. literally say I have to take one of you.

yeah oh my God yeah and none of your. friends hey you got Lewis the last three. times once Dave Smith I I've been. arrested I was arrested three separate. times and Dave Smith watched me get put. into the back of a car and he was like. bye oh God yeah yeah. um but yeah and I remember I went to. Amsterdam when I was 22 and it was the. first time I ever smoked legal weed and. I just remember I was like this is this. is great this is the way it should be it. was nuts I was just like smoking in the. street I was talking to a cop I was on. mushrooms I was like this is so peaceful.

and nice and then I came back and I. remember I was I I was in a stairwell. smoking a blunt like the day I got back. and I was like this is [ __ ] a wild. thing and then here we are years later. and New York City it's legal there's. literally uh you could buy weed and just. delis on every corner in New York City. now it's crazy yeah I remember the. switch in California because for a while. I was medical so I used to have to go to. a doctor and the doctor would go oh you. need weed and then he writes some [ __ ]. down on a piece of paper then you could. buy weed yeah and I used to go to this.

place called the Inglewood Wellness. Center which was in Inglewood and it's. you know a shady area and back then. I don't know if it was credit cards yet. I don't I think they might have been. able to use credit cards but I know they. also had a lot of cash on them and they. got robbed and the guy that I used to. buy weed from got shot oh [ __ ] and I was. like all right done with that spot I'm. gonna have to find a new spot but there. wasn't that many spots you would have to. like find these places and they looked. like shut down stores like most of the. places that were dispensaries they were.

like super low-key like you had to know. people and you would go in there and uh. you know there'd be some [ __ ] doctor. one time went to the doctor and he had. dreadlocks and this dude's had like long. dreads and he had a volcano bag you know. and then Volcano Vaporizer bags but it. was like an extra long bag and we walk. into the dispenser and he's like man you. need medicine it's just immediately he. goes you need some medicine I go yes sir. I do thank you I'm very sick I'm very.

sick he took us to the grow room I don't. know if you've ever been in a grow room. when you're high no but they seem to be. in intelligent. there's an odd feeling that you get when. you're high on marijuana and you walk. into a grow room filled with like. hundreds of plants it was a big ass room. with lights you know hydroponic lights. or whatever hanging from the sky. and um. it just has a weird feel to it yeah it. is a weird feel like not a regular room.

it doesn't feel like you're walking into. a room it feels like you're walking into. a room with beings oh really yeah like. they feel alive in a weird way yeah and. I know I'm I know super high that's kind. of good weed that you have I mean. vaporized but it felt real because it. didn't feel like that when I was in the. other room right when I was in the other. room where they had just like couches. and [ __ ] you know seem normal and then. we he takes us back and we go into this. back room and I'm like whoa. like these things are conscious well.

they say that don't they say plants are. conscious to a certain degree if you. like sing to them and talk to them or if. you yell at them they don't grow or yeah. I don't know they do like experiments. with [ __ ] where like people are like. nice to plants I've seen it on like Tick. Tock and like reels I've never looked. into that yeah it has to be [ __ ]. there's no way if you're just nice to a. plant it grows better well how do you. what an unethical uh experiment because. then you'd have to be really mean to. another plant it's a really great really. racist to the plant [ __ ] Ficus piece. of [ __ ] I [ __ ] hate ficuses I kill. them every time I find them not in my.

yard and he's just stuck in the dirt in. your house oh if plants really are. conscious and they're stuck in the dirt. in people's houses and the people are. doing math and shooting each other these. plants feel like I gotta get the [ __ ]. out of here how am I stuck in this house. it's like that uh what's that Metallica. video one where the guy's like just. stuck in the bed and he but he's. conscious and he could hear everything. it's from a famous movie I think I don't. remember that it was you he's like you. know dude you definitely remember this.

it's such a famous video it's a. Metallica One video it was Johnny get. Johnny get your gun or something is the. movie it was a guy I guess he he was. hurt in war yeah and he he was conscious. and he could hear everything but he. couldn't communicate oh wow. you know it's uh. this is the life of a house plant right. here. dude Metallica had some bangers yeah but. the thing is it's like they know that.

they communicate with each other that's. what's really fascinating. they communicate with each other through. the mycelium and the ground so it does. say they grow they grow better look it. says for most plants playing classical. or jazz music cause growth to increase. while harsher metal music can do stress. wow this may be because the vibrations. of metal music are too intense for. plants and stimulate cells a little too. much we think of this as a massaging. your plant with a song they prefer a. gentler touch but how do we know I want.

to know the boring [ __ ] who wrote this. article the touch how do we not know. that it's not that at all how do we not. I mean that's an assumption that's like. minimalizing their ability to recognize. what's going on because right like put. that up again like how it's explained. because the way it's explained it's like. it's here it says this may be because. the vibrations of metal music are too. intense for plants and stimulate cells a. little too much like how do you know how.

do you know the plant just doesn't think. that music sucks could you imagine it's. like you know when they were when they. were torturing Noriega yeah they would. [ __ ] just blare horrible music at him. forever remember that yeah they did that. with uh it was the the what was the big. group that was like there was like a. standoff and then they did it with Billy. Ray Cyrus's song Achy Breaky Heart there. was some yeah it was some like some like. some dude who had like a bunch of people. captive and they played achy breaky. heart too oh God to [ __ ] with them yeah.

I do have to say though that at least. shows a sense of humor by the police. yeah I think that's pretty funny that's. [ __ ] hilarious that's funny. play Bad music in this till this dude. [ __ ] moves out of the house with the. hostages. but I know they they did it with I 99. sure they did it with Noriega I forget. what the songs were though. see what they did with Manuel Noriega. because I'm pretty sure they surrounded. his house in Panama and just played. horrible music yeah let's see I fought.

the law. oh that's pretty good The Clash [ __ ]. Panama by the stadium I guess any song. over and over and over again would drive. you out of your mind they played Panama. by Van Halen you two's All I Want Is You. Bruce cockburn if I had a rocket. launcher. and they just kept playing it over and. over again. oh and the Howard Stern Show so at least. they gave him some entertainment while. he's contemplating death yeah is he dead. yeah did they kill him or did he uh go.

to jail. that's that might be even more wild than. when they kill them they'd take these. dictators and they just stick them in a. Cell bye-bye never hear them again. bye-bye and then it stops being a news. story and nobody cares bye-bye yep bye. bye Mr person who ran Country Have you. ever been in uh a jail cell Joe no. you've never been arrested for anything. ever nope never damn. noragas mug shot after surrender to U.S. forces in 1990 age 56.

how many people had that guy killed. you never even been in cuffs no damn. I'm a good boy you are a good boy it's. it's the worst. I could only imagine I was very. respectful to Cops I'm super respectful. to Cops too because at that point. they're arresting me and I want to get. out of it I want to get off with a. warning I've never done anything real. like I've never done a real crime it's. always for smoking weed or they should. expunge all those they did they did they.

always [ __ ] for with everybody with that. we should wake up as a country and. realize those laws are immoral they. don't make any sense everybody in Canada. for for years I couldn't go to Canada if. we can drink why can't we smoke it makes. zero sense you guys are you're out of. your minds you don't smoke weed you. don't know what you're talking about. it's you it's like that's part of the. problem is that the people that are. making these laws they don't have any. experience with these drugs yeah you. know I'm good very good there's like a. certain. I think you should know what you're.

talking about. and if we lie about it then people are. going to be more likely to be to abuse. it because they're not going to think. there's any problems yeah you got to be. like fully straightforward with it it's. probably one of the safest drugs you. could use if you're not a schizophrenic. are they you're not a person who has. like that that [ __ ] missing screw and. then the weed takes you over the top. because there's a few of those guys yeah. I mean I know some people that they're. not good on it I know I'm probably.

better as a human when I'm not smoking. weed just in terms of productivity just. in terms of like just being a little bit. sharper but I'm also miserable and. depressed and [ __ ] anxious so it's. like it's a trade-off you know I like to. walk the dance. I like the walk to dance between high. and sobriety I like it I like both of. them I think this idea. I mean look if you're a person who's an. alcoholic sobriety is your choice that's. the way to go for sure and you don't.

need it and look you could you can get. high doing yoga you could feel pretty. good when you run but if you can handle. it and if it's for you it provides you. like a different window to the world and. I think it changes and shapes the way. you think about things I agree with that. but I think that just the difference in. thinking does that as well so if I I. smoke all day every day right so if I. stop smoking for like a week it's like. I'm seeing the world differently. your brain gets to clear out a little.

bit yeah yeah and it's just a different. perspective it's kind of good to do that. um yeah I just and then the other thing. now that I'm getting older I'm 41 now. I still don't I mean I can probably. research this does weed just not cause. cancer. not like nobody's talking about weed. giving them [ __ ] cancer I smoke a lot. of [ __ ] weed and I'm just in my head. about I'm like dude I'm gonna get lung. cancer because I've been smoking Blunts. and weed for so long it doesn't seem to. and I don't know why it wouldn't if. cigarettes do no no here's a question is.

there a difference between those natural. cigarettes that people enjoy like those. American Spirits and like Marlboros dude. I don't think they're natural America. that's that's good branding because they. even have Joe Rogan going dude those. natural state they're not it's the same. [ __ ] but it's that's the name of them. isn't it it's the American Spirit dude I. think it's just some we assume they're. natural because American Indians make. them I think is there a bunch of [ __ ] in. there our research shows the majority of. natural American Spirit smokers. incorrectly because their cigarettes are. safer than other cigarettes the truth.

out there they're just as dangerous as. any other cigarette yeah dude that's I. always say it's a cigarette like light. cigarettes were safer and they're not at. all no that's probably even worse like. what is in those okay what are menthols. like what's going on there I don't even. know what is going on they're trying to. outlaw that in California yeah well. because they outline I think they did a. lot because they they say it's they're. going after like any of the flavored. tobacco [ __ ]. um like you can't get flavored blunt. wraps in New York City anymore because. the the I guess the Anglers are saying.

that kids are more likely to buy. flavored stuff. um which is just yeah I think that's. kind of stupid as well what about. flavored liquor yeah. yeah well you're not taking away. anyone's liquor anymore how come you can. still have flavored liquor there what. are you talking about like there's. syrupy liquor yeah. yeah all the smoking laws are kind of. good too in a weird way though or they. do they I because I smoke cigarettes in. New York when they started they were. just like we're gonna just charge you a. [ __ ] crazy amount for cigarettes it. went up it went from like three dollars. a pack of cigarettes to like 15 a pack.

in like a year and they just priced a. lot of people out I was just too broke. to [ __ ] spend fifteen dollars per. pack of cigarettes it was crazy it was. like Wow 75 cents per cigarette as like. a broke young kid in New York City it's. just what's gonna happen so they said. they made it the the the age 21 and then. they started charging a [ __ ] arm and. a leg for it and just kids just couldn't. afford them anymore so I think a lot. less kids are smoking today because of. all that [ __ ]. um but yeah I mean when I moved to New.

York City you could still smoke inside. of bars and then they changed that like. a year later and I remember being like. no this is crazy who cares about the. employee's health. I give a [ __ ] dude people did get upset. that they couldn't smoke indoors yeah I. remember when you go to comedy clubs. they were filled with smoke every table. had an ashtray yeah they're filled with. smoke. but you would hear stories about like. waitresses that didn't even smoke and. they would get cancer yeah that's when. it's to get scary it's like people that. are forced to breed that smoke all day.

and they don't even smoke yeah that's. [ __ ] that's a office Hazard like or a. job Hazard you can't force someone to. work in those yeah now as an adult but. when I'm a kid where I just want to. smoke a cigarette in the back of a bar. it's like you're not. um but now we all smoke weed in comedy. clubs that's a weird thing it's well we. just started smoking weed like I don't. know like eight years ago in comedy. clubs and nobody said anything it was. never legal we just decided we were. gonna do it it was because Chappelle was. smoking cigarettes and then somebody was. like no dude we can smoke it's part of. the act right and nobody said anything.

but nobody's been lost definitely way. more acceptance to weed people. understand what it is now there's so. many people that are like right wing. people use weed that's like that that's. the big shift because it used to be that. weed is just like for hippies and losers. but a lot of people that are in pain use. it a lot of people that get headaches. use it a lot of people that it helps. them sleep they like Edibles it helps. some sleep they like it yeah that's the. way. I gotta switch to Edibles because I. think putting anything in your lungs. over an extended amount of time there's. no [ __ ] way it's good for you animals.

are totally different though you know. it's totally different what do you mean. it's totally different drug like your. body metabolizes it differently yeah it. becomes um five Hydra 11 hydroxy. metabolite right that's what it is it's. uh it's processed by your liver and it's. just a way more potent psychoactive oh. and that's probably not good for your. liver I don't know I don't think it's. bad for your liver I I think especially. if you're not like [ __ ] blasting it. every day I've never heard that it's. toxic there's got there's it can't all. be good weed can't just be the perfect. you're right there's got to be something.

negative right I think it's negative for. something anything in life that's good. you almost have to like pay for it in a. way right so that's what I I'm just. trying to find the angle on why I should. stop smoking weed because I I still. haven't heard of anybody getting lung. cancer I'm not hearing about any. negative effects everyone's just cool. and high and it's cheap now yeah um I. haven't heard any good arguments yeah. but for some people they don't Pro. they're not productive when they're on. it they can't get anything done they. just want to veg out all day yeah but I.

think it hits everybody CBD may be. harmful to your liver but probably won't. affect your kidneys or your heart CBD. May raise level levels of liver enzymes. this could indicate liver damage in most. cases this happens with very high doses. of CBD when it's taken with certain. medications. or when or when it's taken with certain. medications this is all like this is. crazy I wonder what what how much CBD. [ __ ] you up the problem with medical. [ __ ] like this is you never really know. they have to give you like the whole.

spectrum and they're like oh no this. could happen just so you know but I I. feel like and it could be the anti-cbd. lobbies you know propaganda yeah who. knows who [ __ ] knows anymore with. these people. um but yeah I mean CBD has always been. I've always I've always used it I've. always used it on like I have a knee. injury right now I use it on my knees. [ __ ] great yeah it's really good it's. great when you got like aches and pains. how much CBD do you get from just. smoking weed though you probably get. some right probably get a decent amount. where I think they make strains that are.

like higher with CBD or have more CBD. than THC yeah I know a lot of people who. just smoke CBD joints yeah where it. doesn't have any THC at all which is. like what kind of Franken medicine. you're doing over there man those people. I would love to meet that person and try. to sell them anything bro they're making. new life implants really are intelligent. when we're making like splicing them. together and giving them superpowers. it's a [ __ ] it's weird what botanists. can do I was in uh Costa Rica a few.

weeks ago and like I'm never like in. nature like that like and it's a really. dude it's really cool like the we were. at a place called manual uh Antonio Park. I don't know if you've been there before. and it's just like a huge like Nature. Reserve massive massive Park and one of. the more interesting things were like. the trees right and then we had a tour. guide and I I don't know [ __ ] about this. but there's certain trees that start. attacking each other and they like one. tree would wrap around the other tree. and kill that tree and then the other.

two started growing specific roots that. break that other tree it was the coolest. thing I'd ever I was also high but it. was the coolest thing that I had ever. [ __ ] heard of and I was like there's. so many like and they had like a. bazillion plants there and like it's. just such a crazy crazy world that's. some [ __ ] real like alien life [ __ ]. when you move away from like animals and. you start looking at like plants there's. a lot of crazy plants out there yeah. there's a lot do you know that they. splice diff different species of plants. together. I think it's avocados and pistachios I.

forget which one is the bottom and which. one is the top this is counter tool I. just pulled up about liver oh marijuana. may protect the liver from alcohol yeah. it says those liver enzymes can protect. against alcohols. are perfect it's the same [ __ ]. internet giving us two different things. but that's like smoking it versus CBD. the the CBD thing is almost mostly. edible I just said that they didn't know. which strain they were using so they. didn't know exactly what part of the.

cannabinoids were protecting so they. need to do more research but they did. 320 000 people yeah that's the thing. that used to suck about those THC pills. remember they had those THC pills what. the [ __ ] was that called there was like. a synthetic marijuana that was involved. oh yeah remember that like spice or some. [ __ ]. there was ones that you could buy in. like delis back in the day that was like. they didn't look like wasn't there like. a pharmaceutical Club it was like a real. thing yeah what was the purpose of that.

Marinol Marinol that's right. it was a pharmaceutical version of. cannabis is that what it was it was in. well I remember it but I don't remember. what it was. do you remember this no I never heard of. it yeah there was like a a weed Pig you. guys were out in California though you. guys got a lot of [ __ ] that we just. didn't get. but I I don't I don't even okay cancer. treatment oh for okay it treats nausea. and vomiting caused by cancer treatment.

so instead of giving people actual. marijuana they gave them this Marinol. [ __ ]. and people were diagnosed with AIDS. medication comes in capsule form you. could take by mouth as directed the. brand name of this medication is Marinol. yeah that's what it was back in the day. right it was for nausea yeah that's why. people would smoke weed that was the. only thing really when they first. started talking about medical marijuana. it was like for cancer patients for. nausea would help you eat. um and then they started figuring out.

all the other [ __ ] that it's good for. CBD especially right yeah um so yeah. maybe that's why it doesn't cause cancer. maybe it's fighting your cancer. simultaneously while you're smoking it. well there there has been I don't know. but but you got to wonder like what's. causing cancer maybe it's just like. decreasing inflammation in general and. that's probably what's protecting you. from cancer Maybe. what am I I'm [ __ ] terrified I'm. terrified of cancer it's terrifying. should be terrifying yeah you should be. terrified of all kinds of things like.

asteroids. I say I'm not not terrified of asteroids. I've never once. thought about it you always hear about. them like oh they they miss the Earth by. like it's always like a hundred thousand. miles that doesn't seem that close. yeah it's just a time thing Lewis. it's just a time thing what do you mean. it's just a time thing we're gonna get. hit yeah it's inevitable it's happened. thousands of times probably while human. beings have been alive look some of them.

are big if an asteroid hits Mars and we. hear about it then I'm gonna go all. right [ __ ] we're in trouble. well they had a hat and a big one hit. Jupiter once oh really yeah and they. they really. um were surprised because the impact was. like far larger than they thought it was. going to be but it was an enormous one. that's apparently that's what protects. us Jupiter's so massive that it like. sucks up most of the asteroids and. comets that's what allows us to not just. be pelted all the time because there's.

like hundreds of thousands of these. near-earth objects that are just so why. are you trying to scare the audience. right now I don't really know what is. your name. this is just what I think about all the. time the gas giant regularly absorbs. hits from comets and asteroids. protecting their inner solar system. worlds damn yeah I think they have the. photo of uh getting hit. but uh it got hit by some just [ __ ]. dinosaur killer just some big one just. shop boom yeah something like that I'm.

like that's a wrap so there you could. see it you could you could actually see. it get hit there's just no control with. that like if there's nothing that I can. do if we get hit by an asteroid one day. that's that. I'm not you know I can control not. giving myself cancer by smoking blunts. every day or maybe that's what's making. you not have cancer. damn. maybe this is my gender that's my. Jupiter yeah that's your Jupiter there. we go yeah just space in general it's.

like the most insane Prospect ever this. infinite thing that we exist in and. there's rocks. flying through it that occasionally slam. into the planet and cause civilization. to reset you know that's is that. actually what happened with like Big. Bang Theory right that's the idea is. that that's what killed the dinosaurs. well Big Bang Theory is the beginning of. the universe what killed the dinosaurs. is one of these assets I'm an idiot yeah. yeah. I don't know about anything I don't.

think about asteroids. I think about them all the time because. I've had these uh experts on they've. [ __ ] permanently mind [ __ ] me. especially Randall Carlson. he's this dude that um along with Graham. Hancock they've come up with this theory. that uh human beings got hit by. asteroids some around 11. 000 11 800 years ago and civilization. just reset and we were basically like. savages for thousands of years.

which totally makes sense and then the. civilization that emerged from that like. Babylon and Mesopotamia the first. civilizations we know of like Sumer. those were probably a reboot like. thousands of years of chaos before they. figured out how to calm down and develop. civilization again yeah. um I don't know about any of that [ __ ]. dude how do you how do you talk to these. people you're a [ __ ] comic were you. always this dude you were like super. interested in like everything because I.

I watch you interview people and you're. really [ __ ] good at like having these. conversations with these people in all. of these fields and I'm going like God. damn dude like how do you have the. capacity to take that all in and [ __ ]. but it's only things that I'm interested. because no comic that I know does that. like literally no every other comic is a. [ __ ] idiot who's just smoking weed or. drinking beer and just trying to show up. and get some [ __ ] at the end of the. night and I think look you know it's a. compliment because it really is I think. why you created something so big is.

you're so interested in so much stuff. that I think it made like it gave you. this like Mass Appeal but was it like. always that way or was it doing the. podcast that turned you into that well. I've always been curious but then doing. the podcast allowed me to have all these. conversations with people it's like. getting a an accidental education yeah. it's like about just a broad range of. subjects yeah but for me it's just it's. just interesting like I like listening. to people and talking to people and.

finding out how they tick yeah. who was the most interesting person you. had on the show ever man there's. probably not one most interesting. there's been a lot of them that are. interesting yeah you know elon's pretty. [ __ ] interesting that's a that's a. rare one-of-a-kind human being yeah you. know like they don't make many of those. yeah he just said I'm gonna buy Twitter. yeah that's crazy overpaid for it by a. lot yeah it's gangster as [ __ ] man and. but he really truly believed that we're.

in a very pivotal moment in our. civilization when it comes to. what is happening with like particularly. with censorship. and um when you when you have something. that's essentially the Town Square for. the world which Twitter is. if you prevent people from other. ideologies or other points of view or. other political parties if you prevent. them from using this space and only. people that agree with you can use that.

space that's dangerous and he recognized. that and I think we all do it's [ __ ]. dangerous I know you think you're doing. it whoever's doing that because it's the. right thing and we have to protect. people from bad ideas but that never. ends well it just doesn't end well you. you you're going to give that control to. someone next after you're gone because. that's going to be like a thing we do. now you're going to give that control to. new people and they're going to turn it. the other way they're going to use it on. you they're going to use it against.

causes that you believe in we we were. headed in before Elon bought Twitter. we were headed in a really weird it. seemed like very dangerous direction for. comedy for anybody who you know anybody. who wasn't like super left-wing liberal. if you were trying to create [ __ ] online. it was like it was scary I was like and. I do you know we do Legion of skanks. most offensive podcasts on Earth we say. a lot of [ __ ] up [ __ ] but I was like. we are not going to be able to even put. [ __ ] on the internet anymore forget just.

like you know Twitter or anything else. like I think they're gonna scrub it all. from the internet and then Elon came in. and he kind of made people go like wait. a minute hold on that was we were. getting crazy and people kind of pause. you see Shane has a special out on. Netflix now I feel like we've sort of. calmed down a little bit and that was a. big part of it because it was like well. no we need to even the playing field a. little bit we need to hear all opinions. and hear both sides. um so I was actually legitimately. worried and now it seems like this is a. little bit of a pause in that it's.

definitely a change of course the the. problem is all the other social media. platforms are essentially run by people. who think the same way they have the. same opinions on things there's there's. no one social media platform that stands. out that's like a huge place where other. than Twitter now or X. where you can just say whatever the [ __ ]. you want like people are saying Michelle. Obama's a man like that you you say the. Earth is flat there's like plenty of.

people that are talking about the Earth. being flat yeah that's also [ __ ]. crazy say whatever the [ __ ] you want. and there's a there's a there's only one. platform like that yeah like all the. other ones it's not like there's a bunch. of those it's like you can go and say. whatever you want on Instagram no you. can't they'll put a [ __ ] thing saying. fact check or this is incorrect and. misleading information and and even. sometimes I've gone to some of those. fact checks I'm like you didn't fact. check this at all right like this is. just like not approved this is a not. approved message yeah I um that's why I.

try to disconnect from it as much as. possible I think everyone should we I. think it's truly like the downfall of. society is social media I I think it. it's we're sharing ideas too quickly too. dangerously. um I don't think it's that but I think. it's transforming Society I think we. better catch the [ __ ] up well you better. catch up well we will and look I think. part of it is a lot of these they don't. really know how to handle it it just. moves too quickly right right so I think.

that um we're gonna look back at this. time and we're gonna go oh yeah that was. like a real it was just us getting a. hold of the internet the internet just. [ __ ] came out and then we got social. media and it just transformed everything. the whole world we're all connected I. mean dude we're it's the world is Tiny. now like it doesn't even feel like. um but I think we're gonna look back and. go like yeah we were like irresponsible. with it we were like trying to destroy. each other we were trying to hurt each. other with it it's like it became like. Warfare so quickly. um I put a I tweeted out a joke the.

other day it's a dumb joke about Amber. Heard I don't I don't have a dog in the. race I don't give a [ __ ] about Amber. Heard Johnny Depp that whole thing like. from my perspective it looked like two. crazy people abusing each other right. it's kind of hot right but who gives us. the whole joke is that Amber Heard is so. hot that I would let her [ __ ] in my bed. I would let her [ __ ] on my couch on the. kitchen counter you know dumb joke very. mild dude all of these [ __ ] chicks. that are Amber Heard supporters are. coming after me on Twitter still to this. day three days later non-stop just kind. of like you don't know Amber Heard she.

was abused and I'm like this is [ __ ]. psychotic dude like it is then they're. digging up my old tweets they're like. looking up anytime I've said anything. questionable and they're reposing I'm. like idiot I posted that it's public. are these real people you think I don't. know or is this like a media campaign. company I think it might be a media. campaign company because they all have. like a hashtag stand with Amber and. their thing I didn't even post their. name in it I just posted the joke but. I'm not accusing her of this but but you.

know that is absolutely a real thing. yeah that is absolutely a real thing. there's a way that you can just uh like. defend a person or attack a person with. Bots I think yeah I think they they're. for sure using it look we know the. Russians are using it we know that the. the and they always find these troll. Farms like one of them they found that. 19 of all the top 20 Christian sites on. Facebook were run by Russian troll Farms. really.

when I found out that they were like uh. Russia like interfered with the in the. election like with like social media and. [ __ ] I was like that's kind of [ __ ]. awesome it's badass I wonder they. certainly tried and I'm sure we try with. theirs the question is like was there. like real interference well because that. thing was like the Russia hacked our. election like I don't think that's true. I think you could push information I. think they I know Trump and Biden both. did this right they they both had. massive social media teams I'm sure yeah.

I know I know comedians who have massive. social media teams so I'm sure that they. both had like the best of the best and. yeah they both went and manipulated. algorithms and did whatever they had to. do in order to get their message in. front of the most people possible and. that's the game now that's a big part of. it yeah that's definitely a big part of. it. but it's also it's just like. this is not going to stop right here. this is what freaks me out. we you know this introduction to social. media like the whole country kind of.

freaking out but it seems like more calm. now right like what's next. like what is the Dex thing well the next. election cycle is going to suck the. elections like another it just sucks. because you know what it is. people on the left they start attacking. like movies and comedy and music when. they when they feel like they're under. attack and when Trump was in office the. left was like dude we are under attack. this is like we're losing the world so. they had to just anything Dude any any. podcaster who who you know I mean dude.

it was it was none of his articles being. written about comedians like Shane and. the legionist Hanks it was really crazy. and it was just because Trump was in. office and they just felt like they were. at War and they had a win they had to. get their wins where they can get them. and right now when Biden is in office. people are really leaving comedians. alone and I'm telling you I think they. just are we we have this win we don't. really need to go after Comics I found. this yesterday I finally it's kind of. relevant uh when Rockefeller Center was. like empty in the 30s and 40s the. British security coordination. organization came in so part of the.

British secret service. and as it says here that they used like. that space was their head offices the. 35th and 30th 36th floor of Rockefeller. Center where they disseminated and. controlled part of the media for at. least a year or two before World War II. it seems like. [Laughter]. wow disseminated stories picked up by. radio stations played before the. American public propaganda stories yeah. that was always the thing.

they've always been [ __ ] with us oh I. wanted to ask if this is true because. someone was trying to convince me the. other night that those stories of like. bricks being left off in neighborhoods. where protests has that been. substantiated. I lived in New York during that time. during it was during the whole. um it was there was the BLM protest yeah. it was during the BLM BLM protests and. without a doubt it was just [ __ ] huge. piles of [ __ ] bricks in multiple.

places in New York City I saw it with my. own eyes weird just there was no. construction happening there would just. be a [ __ ] massive stack of heavy. [ __ ] cement bricks Jesus and it was. out of nowhere somebody put them there. as it relates just side note I remember. once before the riots had you ever. noticed piles of bricks like. construction sites you would see a. construction site and you would see but. they they always with a construction. site and once again I smoke a lot of. weed in public so we were always looking.

for like back alleys and [ __ ] to smoke. weed in stairwells I used to sell Comedy. Club tickets on the street that's how I. got my start in comedy uh in New York. City all throughout you know the early. 2000s and um you can't really get into. construction sites it's always chained. off they always have the sites are. pretty controlled because people will. steal [ __ ] right and of course you. wouldn't just leave your bricks out bro. you weren't valuable yeah because then. if someone's coming home they go look. there's a [ __ ] pallet of bricks yeah. dude grab them that was definitely true. and I don't know you know so you saw. more than one of those more than one. with my own eyes wow because I was I was.

having this conversation I was like how. is that was that real like why did I. hear that some of that was [ __ ] but. well because but I didn't look into it. the conspiracy sorry the conspiracy was. that. um like the police were leaving it out. or right Wingers were leaving it out so. BM BLM protesters would use it and look. worse that was one of the theories huh. um was there another theory that they. wanted to accelerate the possibility of.

chaos by giving people readily available. weapons. that's the better Theory added the. conspiracy for sure NYPD commissioner. says bricks are being placed and then. transported to Peaceful protests what. then calls them construction debris what. I also saw a bunch of BLM protests and. they were legitimately peaceful I'm sure. the ones in New York City were like it. was you know they were just protesting. they were banging [ __ ] drums yo. that's crazy they just left bricks out.

there. what is that that's definitely different. than all the other stuff we saw where it. was like a giant Palace yeah they were. right but this is plenty of friendly. rocks that someone just dropped off. and left with the Box Tops open yeah. remember people were putting like rocks. in milkshakes because the whole thing. was Russian debris throw milkshakes at. like people had Nazis yeah Jesus Christ. man this is insane but it's like yeah I.

mean and I think the internet is a big. part of the hysteria people get worked. up people just didn't if you have to. give a [ __ ] right before you had to get. a book or you had to go like really. research some [ __ ] right you gotta go. out if you cared about something or you. had to care you had to really put in the. the footwork and physically care now. people can sort of pretend to care while. they're just being addicted to the their. phone while they're being addicted to. Twitter and all these other social media. platforms and they're being tricked into. just you know looking at advertising. because that's what it's all about they. get to also pretend that they care they.

get to feel like they're doing something. and then it just starts to snowball and. then it turns into [ __ ] like real. chaos and people at each other's throats. about [ __ ] that people don't even really. give a [ __ ] about if you go to the. supermarket like people are just cool. like in real life you go to supermarket. nobody gives a [ __ ] about who voted for. who nobody cares about you know what. would your political beliefs are we just. coexist and we do what we do in real. life and then we jump on the internet. and we just [ __ ] it's a war. well I think it's also got exacerbated. during the pandemic right because. everybody was stayed stayed in they were. at home their anxiety is high they.

didn't know if they're going to be able. to work again like who knows what the. [ __ ] gonna happen yeah people were. freaked out and then they got more. freaked out on social media and you're. on it all day because you don't have a. job you're at home now so that you're. just kind of [ __ ] weirding out in. front of your Twitter all day you know. like people have lost days and days of. their lives just staring at other. people's opinions dude all day long I I. I'd be embarrassed to tell you my screen. time number. it's embarrassing do you know what yours.

is no I don't know what it is. dude it's [ __ ] mine's like nine hours. a day wow it's bad. that's not good it's really bad you can. look at these type in screen time to the. uh the search bar screen. maybe not I don't know yeah it's like. nine hours like eight or nine hours a. day it's crazy. it's wild you gotta say oh I'm good. something's done you pretend you're. working yeah but also I'm tuning into. the world or checking on the world we'll.

see what's going on out there in the. news. but really just hitting that button. what a weird addiction yeah that that. was that documentary where they talked. about like they designed it that way. when you refresh it it does like a. little physical like like little blip. and you want to see it you want to see. like another interaction and it's like. they compared it to a slot machine right. you go Boop did I get anything did I win. did I win did I win oh I got likes I got. replies okay whatever and uh yeah it's. super addictive it's also kind of.

in in some ways. were kind of it's there's something. dehumanizing about it because more and. more people are just communicating. through like text messages. and online social media and stuff and. not communicating that much in real life. yeah I think kids are sending each other. text messages more than they're talking. to each other oh yeah you know what I. mean my son's just got a phone for the. first time he's 10. uh just got his uh. his iPad for the first time.

um I it was a conscious decision that me. and his mother made we said we're not. going to have him be addicted to a. screen and staring at a screen all the. time you see kids in restaurants as soon. as they sit down they give them a pad or. a phone and they are disconnected from. the entire conversation they're not. having they're not making eye contact. right I want to give my kid every chance. possible in the world to be successful. and he's I mean he's such a bright kid. he he shakes people's hands he looks. them directly in the eyes I mean he's. just a a little gentleman he's the.

[ __ ] best and I think a big part of. his is the fact that we just didn't. enable him to do that and we didn't. allow him to do that um but yeah that's. I'm super [ __ ] scared of my kid. growing up also I'm just scared of my. kid finding all the [ __ ] that I've said. online I have to like [ __ ] I have to. like dude I'm telling you right now I. think about that every day every day I'm. like dude he's gonna [ __ ] He's. because he's he's from this new. generation he's a good kid he's a sweet. kid and he's obviously 10 times more. woke than I'm ever going to be right. he's just it's just the generation and I.

just I'm so afraid that he's just gonna. look up the [ __ ] that I say and out of. context just not really understand you. know why we say stupid [ __ ] to make. people laugh. um yeah so you know I'm so I'm just. secretly trying to make him racist I. whisper things it is yours at night when. I put him to bed. do you could you imagine your kid doing. stand-up would you even encourage it I. would not encourage it but I would not. discourage him from doing anything that. he wanted to do like literally anything. right um and he has done stand up um. really yeah because he he so we did the.

roast at skank Fest in Houston for me. and we me and my my uh ex-girlfriend. wrote him a few jokes and he he did the. jokes not asking because he did it like. a video. um and then so he was really into that. and then I was at the stand one night. with um just at the comic stable I. brought him and Bonnie McFarland was. there but you know and she's got kids as. well Bonnie's awesome um Rich boss's. wife and um he was like oh I want to go. on stage I was like James you're not. going on stage if you want to go on. stage I was like I If you really want to. go on stage in a few years I was like.

you can write some jokes take it. seriously go to an open mic do it the. way that a comic would do it right and. he was like okay yeah you're right Dad. and then I went on stage and then two. minutes later Bonnie McFarland comes in. the room with him and she's like here. put him on stage and she shoved him up. on stage and yeah he started roasting me. and talking [ __ ] about me and he did he. did well um. you know he's a little performer dude he. he's in like musical theater and he's. like super well-rounded kid yeah he does. Jiu Jitsu now he just won his first. Jujitsu tournament gold medal first. tournament congratulations that's. awesome the best thing I've ever. experienced as a father in my entire.

life was watching my son win a jiu jitsu. tournament there's not dude there's. nothing [ __ ] better better than the. day he was born by far it was the. [ __ ] best that's amazing he dominated. another dude's come that was that my [ __ ]. went in there and dominated another. dude's come. I did that really. that's my medal I wear the metal around. the house. um but it was really [ __ ] that was. the coolest thing I've ever experienced. in my life that's very cool sounds like. he's on a good path that's awesome yeah. he is beautiful man but yeah I mean I.

you know [ __ ] I feel I feel bad for. like this next Generation because I. don't even think they realize that you. know what's happening with that it's. just that that addiction to your phone. that's really what I think it's going to. be is eventually we're gonna everyone's. gonna have this sort of opinion and. attitude because people are starting to. get wind of it that it's bad to be to be. on your phone that much. um and I think just parents are gonna. just start saying like yeah no you can't. be on a [ __ ] cell phone all day you. can't be and I think it comes down to us. I think we have to make a decision to do.

that with our kids. yeah you got to teach them discipline. for sure but also recognize that. everyone is using these things and it's. a part of Civilization now. I I really feel like if we could see the. writing on the wall we would be. terrified I I think human beings are. we're slipping into some weird place. where we're. for sure within the next few years going. to be connected to computers. oh yeah how we're going to do it I don't.

know how they're going to do it whether. it's something you wear or something. that's in you. but it's common kids. and it's almost like all these things. are falling in line at the same time. like all these uh endocrine disruptors. and Plastics that are [ __ ] up. people's reproductive systems. and then at the same time we're all. getting addicted to phones and not as. personal you know because people aren't. really communicating hanging out just.

talking to each other without checking. their phone every time but it's going to. be the future is going to be us looking. at each other and downloading each. other's thoughts oh [ __ ] because you. could air drop pictures and [ __ ] now. it's literally gonna be like here take. this picture just with a [ __ ] thought. yeah that and it will 100 is going to. happen they're already they're already. doing [ __ ] right they're already making. devices that can go in your body that. connect to to other [ __ ] I'm sure I'm. sure it's so much more advanced than we. even know think about how much we don't. know right there's got to be some crazy. [ __ ] going on out there for sure really. unethical [ __ ]. that's going on right now hey what is um.

like what was that I want to see Elon. Musk basement was the experiments that. he has going on right now it's probably. 18 miles deep. um what what is that uh thing they did. where they uh where they recorded uh. human thoughts. like someone was watching something and. they got a recording of that. from something this person was where I. saw it I saw it yeah bro that is that is. like just think Morse code was not that.

long ago yeah. that was not that long ago yeah and it. seems like technology will just move now. with AI it's just it's yeah it's just. moving faster and faster and faster it's. like it's really cool but it's also. [ __ ] terrifying that's the [ __ ] that. I'm terrified [ __ ] asteroids dude this. [ __ ] that we're talking about right now. is the [ __ ] that keeps me up at night no. is this it scientists recorded a Pink. Floyd song from patients brain waves. yeah this is it the tech could.

eventually allow for communication. without words what. 100 of these Eggheads keep going we're. [ __ ] oh yeah dude it's we're gonna be. doing crazy [ __ ] that's the really like. and then you gotta figure like it's. gonna be who's rich who has the best you. know computer built into their body. because the same the same guy who can. afford you know a [ __ ] Lamborghini. yeah he's gonna have a super brain you. know and his computer is going to be. faster than your computer he's going to. be able to download and upload. information faster than you it's kind of.

wild like that you're gonna have to be. an early adopter. right you would have to be like one of. the people who gets the brain operation. first and then you'd be like way ahead. of everybody yeah but that first one. dude the night before the operation are. you sure this is gonna work Harry yeah. Harry look me in the eye you're gonna. cut it into my brain are you sure. pretty sure I don't want it here pretty. sure Harry.

yeah dude any dude it's [ __ ] nut. that's like those people on that uh that. went on that um you know the [ __ ]. submarine thing yeah Titanic dude it's. like yeah what a cool thing that must. have been to like sign up for you like. dude we're gonna go to see the Titanic. and then. that's [ __ ] wild dude that could have. been you Joe you could have been down on. that thing no not a [ __ ] chance in. hell well there was one was it Mr Beast. he said that they invited him to go do. it I am not hopping in that [ __ ]. backyard smoker and dropping to the.

bottom of the ocean would you go to. space out of here right now on like one. of these Charters. son you love space those things blow up. you have to go real fast to go into. space kid those things blow up. I'm not interested not until they get. that [ __ ] down like an electric car when. they get a spaceship that moves like a. Tesla just yeah okay I'm in. yeah just not worth it I get it look. your starry nights are beautiful I get.

it yeah I get it I get you'd want to. like go out get real high and come back. down I'm good you can [ __ ] keep that. I trust that it's up there I don't have. to jump at the top of a cliff I'm good. I'll just sit down and look at it from. here like even as high as we get like. what we're calling space like look we've. made it into space we're like freaking. that far off the Earth's surface yeah. this is so much is that what uh is that. what the those tours are you just go. into space for a second uh you just go.

like whatever and come back down oh like. you don't like go to space you want to. go land on the moon I want to check out. Mars you're not going to Jupiter yeah. [ __ ] Dodge some [ __ ] asteroids you. know what I bet they will be able to do. probably really soon is to give you a VR. representation of what it would be like. to travel through space Oh I bet it. already exists I I went I had um. yeah there was a NASA thing that I had. on my Oculus yeah that was a good it was. super cool I mean it was like it was. just a movie essentially it wasn't like.

I didn't get to like free move but it. was like I was on like um like a space. station type thing so you were like. moving all over it was really really. cool is this it no what is this chairman. I just looked up space tripped outer. space that's the first thing that popped. up get the [ __ ] out Joe you would go. like that I'm looking this is a space. elevator and it's gonna fall and. everyone okay so you got a little bit of. extra bro I am not going into [ __ ]. before comfortable looks what if it gets. hit by an asteroid this looks like your.

studio Jeff oh my God it does podcast in. a balloon no GeForce no listen you got. it that they have to do it a thousand. times before I even think about doing it. a six hour cocktails six hour Journey. see that's crazy if the if it's bro I am. not going up there perfect place for. podcasts perfect place to fall to your. death. like how many how many [ __ ]. fail-saves. do you do nothing for the record I'm. sure it's safe yeah do you do anything. dangerous like uh dollars.

125.000. oh it what. refundable deposit so 125 Grand to go up. in a balloon yeah. yeah well I hope it works in six hours I. feel like that's kind of disappointing. if like space should be more than six. hours away in a balloon I'm scared of. anything that people are trying out like. flying cars I'm like just drive that for. a while. you you drive it for a while yeah I'll.

be over here even like this just the. self-driving cars that [ __ ] go like. you hear about once in a while they'll. just [ __ ] go Haywire like mistakes. happen yes mistakes happen and then. you're just in a car that you can't. [ __ ] stop and it's like mowing people. down this and I never I have a Tesla I. never put the self-driving on yeah. I mean I do sometimes when I'm on the. highway just for goofies yeah it just. drives itself but I keep my hands on it. so it's it completely self-drives yeah. completely self-drives up to a point but.

I don't let it you know it's just it's. just to me it's just like I'd rather. just be really tuned into what I'm doing. and paying attention yeah my car because. I fall asleep if I drive for more than. an hour and a half I don't care what. time of day it is I start to doze off. immediately I get like uh Road hypnosis. they call it do you have sleep app now. no no you sure yeah I don't think so do. you ever get a sleep study no. just guessing yeah no I don't snore. though no do you have to do you have to. snort off sleep apnea I think so yeah. yeah I think that's part of it's because.

you're choking super common with guys. especially guys that work out you know I. don't yeah I don't snore at all guys. that are overweight you know but yeah no. I was so I I on my car I have an Audi. and it has like all the lane chain or. the lane correction [ __ ] so if I start. to doze off it'll just automatically. shift back into the lane Jesus Christ it. automatically keeps a certain distance. between the car in front of me and the. car behind me it's like oh wow yeah um. and I've still been into five accidents. since I started driving again after I.

moved I moved out of New York City. during the pandemic. 2020 and I've been in five accidents. with this car my insurance is eighteen. hundred dollars a month Joe what the. [ __ ] dude yeah it's wild. why are you so bad at driving. Joe I have is it your fault every road. hypnosis and I fall asleep no that. hasn't been it it's always dude I'm just. a [ __ ] pothead dude and I'll just. back up and I'll just there's a [ __ ]. car and I hit it and it's never anything. bad it's always like oh you know fender. benders yeah yeah but I called up my.

insurance company I was like what the. [ __ ] is going on this I was mad at them. and I was like they're like so you've. been in five accidents we shouldn't even. be insuring you yeah. laughs and that I change insurance. companies and now it's like 1200 a month. wow for car insurance yeah. free there might be a bargain Maybe. depends on your activity doggy that's. not good though dude is it because you. just didn't drive for a long time before. you lived in New York and now you're. back I drove when I was 16 I moved to. New York when I was 19. didn't drive for.

27 years so that's what it is and then I. just came back and then I just I got a. little bit too like the the all the. Bings and the dings when you're like. backing up and you're almost hitting. [ __ ] it's great but then I started. depending on like a little bit too much. and I just stopped paying attention and. then you know my phone will ring I'll. look down and then here we are I'm an. offender Bender. um yeah. yeah that's not good I feel like I'm a. good driver no I bet you're not. but yeah I think he's good at whatever.

I'm a [ __ ] awesome driver bro how do. you define tennis I'd be number one how. do you find a good how do you define a. good driver right like fine if you take. out my accidents I feel like I'm good at. steering the car and turning it on turns. that's like if you're saying to your. teacher if you take out all my F's I. only got A's. I'm careless I think I'm I think I'm I'm. a bad person but I'm a good driver. that's the problem the careless part is.

a bad driver yeah like by definition Joe. you're winning me over on this argument. I have to on that one you got to let it. go you know it's like you can't be good. I'll say right now I'm a bad driver. but I've never said it publicly before. I've never admitted that to anybody but. I will say it to you right now Joe Rogan. I am a bad driver it's okay we could be. good at other things it's normal. especially taking that much time off man. that's got a that's a big Readjustment. as an adult 20 years plus of not driving. and also you're driving if you did Road. gigs would you get rentals.

say that again if you did Road gigs did. you get rental cars uh before when I was. yeah 20 years yeah noted no I I would do. public transportation Uber I mean really. I'm also a bad Uber Rider like I'm bad I. have the worst my Uber rating is like. abysmal why is it so bad because I'm a. dick to Uber drivers very often. why Louis I'm gonna tell you why all. right so this is it all came from New. York City when I was in New York City I.

live my life. um like I like to be whatever it is dude. I like to be right on time like I showed. up exactly at 12 30 today on the dot I. like to just I don't like being early I. don't like being late but when you live. your life that way you're very often. late because things happen one thing. will go wrong if the the Uber driver. made a wrong turn today that's that. right. um so very often when I would get into. Uber cars. I would uh be running late for something. already and I'd be like really like. anxious and just like oh [ __ ] I gotta go. I gotta go and then they make a wrong.

turn they wouldn't pay attention to the. GPS like if an Uber driver doesn't pay. attention to the GPS and they start. doing their own thing I would just like. dude what are you doing I mean come on. you got to pay attention to the GPS and. then you're like of course they're gonna. give you a one star like immediately. um so yeah it was it was that but it was. just I'm not like that much of a dick I. just feel like people are very sensitive. today people are super sensitive today. and when people can complain that easily. yeah well just a little touch of my. button ruin your rating sir yeah it's a. bad Uber rating well you've been denied.

ride they don't know you though people. who know you know you're a lovable guy. and but you know on the surface when. you're yelling at someone about GPS they. might think this guy might be an [ __ ]. I know if you got to be your friend they. go no he's a great guy no that's just. Lewis that's just Lou he's a great guy. one of the things he does but if you're. like a sensitive person is also if. you're driving an Uber there's always. this fear of. picking up a psycho yeah there's always. this fear like so even a little bit of. an aggression towards an Uber driver The.

Uber driver is like where is this going. yeah you know like how many Uber drivers. have been murdered I'm sure a lot I. don't know but they're probably less. than the cab drivers. dude there's no paper trail dude in the. 90s there was a terrifying rash of. murders in Gypsy cabs where. um I was living in New York I was living. in New Rochelle and uh these Gypsy cabs. were getting I'm good these Gypsy cabs. were getting uh like heisted and the guy.

they'd just shoot them in the back of. the head and steal all their money and. they would say no it was really horrible. stories about these like poor immigrants. who came over here and they're driving. these Gypsy cabs and people are robbing. them and shooting them yeah my uncle. Howard. um God Rest his soul was a Gypsy Cab. Driver and in the 90s he was hit in the. back of the head with a hammer Jesus. right did I just [ __ ] put a hammer. into a skull didn't kill him his uh oh. my God it's a big guy who's like six six. big [ __ ] Burly guy and uh yeah then.

they just stole his car he rolled out he. was on the George Washington Bridge and. Hammer in his head yeah but you could. feel the hole was still in his head dude. they never like filled the hole oh Jesus. Christ I mean I don't know what the type. of doctor we were going to they were. supposed to fill that hole I'm sure. but it was like an actual like doctors. back then yeah I mean if you got your. knee operated on a buddy of mine was on. the U.S ski team and he got his uh he he. has more operations than anyone I've.

ever met and he had his knees fixed in. the 80s when they used to open you up. like a fish and they would take a chunk. of your hamstring and just screw it all. in place and try to fix your ACL and. maybe it'll stick and maybe it won't and. your legs compromise now because a. chunkier hamstring is missing it was. brutal [ __ ] that sucks both of us hit. both of his knees done like that yeah I. gotta I gotta get surgery on my right. knee now I gotta I got a a knee scope on.

my left knee when you say. um you got a knee scope so your your. um ligaments were intact but your. meniscus was told yeah my Meniscus was. torn yeah so they came in and they like. cleaned out like all the little loose. pieces and it's still kind of sore to be. on trim it it's gonna be sore it would. be sore for a long time yeah no it was a. while ago and yeah I haven't gone to. Juju I went back to jiu jitsu too. quickly I went three weeks after I got. the meniscus surgery oh you gotta wait. longer yeah I went back and I was like I. was like yeah I can do it I'm you know. and then um I was just walking out of.

the movies with my girl we went to go. see cocaine bear and we walked out and. she said something and I looked at her. and then I just literally twisted my. ankle like my knee just jerked again and. now it's in pain here and this one every. time I step off my right foot it clicks. every time and I remember you hit me up. and you're like oh dude reach out to the. knee over toes guy you and I was like. Joe I don't have your life I can't just. reach out to knee over toes guy he's not. gonna be like oh dude sure yeah let me. [ __ ] answer this guy's questions I uh. so I watched like two of his videos I.

started walking around backwards in like. [ __ ] the city people looking at me. like I'm a lunatic I'm like I can't do. this I'd rather have bad news and walk. around backwards if you have a treadmill. that's the best way to do it yeah did. you try it on a treadmill I did at the. gym I couldn't get it to move he said to. do it without uh being on I think it was. the treadmill wasn't designed to move oh. I see yeah when it wasn't on but yeah I. was you know I was doing a little a. little bit of backwards jogging. um but yeah dude I haven't been able to. go back to jiu jitsu since yeah give it. time and um another thing that could.

help you is. um if you've uh did you ever get PRP in. there or anything to help it replace it. no platelet-rich plasma that that can. kind of help heal after injuries help. you heal a lot of people like that for. injuries yeah. um uh maybe stem cells maybe consider. like going down to like that place in. Tijuana yeah you know get get your knee. like while it's recovering hit it with. stem cells that'll help you too I should. I I should do all these things but I.

will probably just live my life in pain. yeah but it'll fix it it'll make it. better around it really will I know I. gotta I gotta motivate dude I I I'm just. always so busy that I never have time to. take off to do [ __ ] you know what I'm. saying it's it's really yeah it's tough. but and I miss Jiu Jitsu jiu jitsu's the. [ __ ] dude it's so what a badass. [ __ ] sport it's so cool it's very. good for you and that's good for your. head it was yeah it was great dude yeah. it's great for your head yeah like the. rest of the world seems like so like not.

fearsome anymore you just spent the last. hour and a half trying to get guys to. not strangle you yeah you know yeah try. not to get your arm broken yeah try not. to get your [ __ ] back snap sideways. yeah every day you you walk into it and. go like oh I'm going to find out what. I'm made of today yeah and that's that's. psychologically to go into and no like. I'm gonna be in a lot of pain today yeah. and to face that it's similar to working. out but Jiu Jitsu is different because. it's like it just felt so much more real.

like actual live rolling and sparring. it's just it was like it's real it's. like you're really trying to [ __ ]. um Eddie Bravo said it best he said it's. like you're playing a real live video. game yeah because you're playing a real. live video game like you got a video. fighting game but you're playing with. your body yeah yeah it's uh I missed. that I really didn't it was something I. really connected with my son so we were. like you know neck and neck I I got my. blue belt finally and um just like being. able to actually know what I'm talking. about with him it's really cool you know. and be you know he he we trained him for.

this tournament we he was in class three. to four days a week but then we have. maths at home and I was just working. with him at home a couple days a week. and it was just a cool way to bond with. my kid on a different level and that's. why I really really miss it for the most. part. um well it's not over dude just be. careful just be careful getting back you. can you could fix that yeah and now and. now I'm boxing and now I feel like a. fraud every time I box because I'm like. dude I could just take you down and. [ __ ] choke you out this is like it's. just you feel like a frog it feels silly.

with like putting gloves on and boxing. feels thinking about it wrong man you're. learning a skill no I know it is awesome. it's still badass don't get me wrong but. I when I think about it as like a. martial art I go this just doesn't it. just doesn't seem like the same type of. superpower that Jiu Jitsu felt like it's. not but if you don't have it you're in. real trouble because if someone has it. and they're very fast they can [ __ ] you. up before you can get close to grabbing. them and if they're athletic they can. avoid being taken down like a takedown's. not easy that's like the hardest part of.

Jiu Jitsu what if it's someone like. Terence Crawford who used to wrestle. yeah he used to wrestle knows how to. wrestle his kids can wrestle and he. knows how to box like are you sure. you're gonna grab them and take them. down you're probably not gonna [ __ ]. jack [ __ ] he's gonna [ __ ] you up. standing there was a good video and it. was like just a jiu jitsu coach and he. brought in a professional boxer and that. was the whole exercise he had all of his. Jiu Jitsu guys trying to take this guy. down the guy could only box and they. could only try to take him down and this. guy was just really good and his. footwork was incredible and they just. couldn't get close to him he was just he.

was toying with him and it was actually. in a ring or a cage no this was just on. mats like in a there was walls as long. as there's some space yeah yeah and yeah. it was uh it was it was just it was a. reminder you're like oh no it's not a. foregone conclusion that a jiu jitsu guy. is just gonna go take a striker down and. be able to joke him out you got to get. there you know dude especially in this. day and age how many kids grow up. watching the UFC and start training at a. really young age yeah you never know who. the [ __ ] knows what no and if two guys.

decide to square off in some open field. somewhere like you you're just rolling. the dice there's some uh there's some. great videos on the internet where you. see people that know about fights and. they break down street fights yeah and. they're always like oh you can just see. who like The Stance of the guy who knows. how to fight and you're like oh no this. guy knows how to fight this guy's about. to get before they even throw a punch. you like this guy's about to get [ __ ]. annihilated and um yeah you'd never know. and that's why I became a [ __ ] after I. started training I literally dude I'm. afraid of everybody now because I know. exactly how bad I am I know exactly how.

slow I am I know how old I am I'm like. oh dude I am a [ __ ] [ __ ]. and I'm way more able to protect myself. and my family today than I was you know. years ago but when I was when I was a. kid before I knew ever knew anything. about fighting at all I would have. fought anybody in front of me I thought. I was a tough guy I really did and then. once I started training I was like oh. dude I'm not tough there's literally I'm. the least tough person that I'm that's. in this class right now well tough is. one of those things that people like to. think they are without any proof.

true you know it's just like being a. good driver yeah. it's real similar yeah everybody wants. to think they're tough that's a man. thing we were raised to be and that's. also I think that's kind of prime I. don't think people lose that because my. son is a nice kid and his mom's like you. know super [ __ ] liberal and very much. a feminist right and you know we raise. him you know very balanced but he still. wants to be tough he still wants to be. tough he's still like [ __ ] just has a. thing in him little boys they wrestle on.

the rough house and they and I don't. think I think it's just a natural thing. that we have in us. um as dudes and I think women naturally. want to be pretty and they naturally. want to have you know nice things and. take care of things I think these are. natural things that we sort of beat out. of our you know be it out of ourselves. or beat out of our children. well some people definitely do and I. think there's this phrase like toxic. masculinity that's like the worst. aspects of masculine Behavior right. so people associate even masculinity.

with the word toxic sometimes just. because together they're terrible yeah. you know but yeah it's not it's not. praised. you know but it's so normal as long as. it's under control and the best thing. about Jiu Jitsu and martial arts in. general is the people that are the. practitioners of it. they're the they're probably way less. likely to get into street fights they're. probably way less likely to go and. purposely hurt people yeah they're. probably way less likely to go and pick.

fights. and not a hundred percent because you. know you always get bad apples they just. are badass dudes you know troubled. people that just learn how to fight and. become scary. yeah that does happen too yeah it was. war machine that guy uh he I mean just a. [ __ ] bad apple yeah yeah that was. that was a crazy story but yeah you'll. see rare it's rare though I mean all the. people at my gym it's the most it's a. lot of cops it's kind of it's a lot of. cops and there's a lot of [ __ ] just. like potheads and they just come they.

all just meet on the mat dude and. everyone's cool yeah. um Bryce will roll with this cop and. who's a good dude who's funny as [ __ ]. but he said I don't give a [ __ ] if. you've got a medical license I'm busting. you. I was like dude what's wrong you know I. smoke weed you know a good guy like why. are you selling [ __ ] the laws the. [ __ ] yeah he cared about the law it. was just like I'm busting you I wonder. if like they have pressure to make a. certain amount of arrests for sure oh.

yeah is that there's quotas isn't that. insane though because imagine if just. culturally we all agreed to like one. month of no crime and we like planned. for it for a year yeah and there was no. one speed no one did anything yeah. everyone stopped at everything the. opposite of The Purge yeah what did the. cops do what do they do when they have. these quotas did they just start firing. cops do they they have to give tickets. they have to that's how they make. [ __ ] money they have they had I get I.

get so many parking tickets too I'm bad. at parking I'm not only am I better. driving. I can't even park the car all right it's. I I wanna I would get arrested in New. York as a kid in my 20s it was always on. sweep nights they would they were two. nights a week where they would take in. everybody for any like infractions so. very often you just get a ticket and to. appear in court and then they give you a. fine right if it wasn't a sweet night. but if it was a sweet night and you get. caught smoking weed pissing in public. open container they take you to Central.

Bookings you have to spend like 24 to 48. hours in jail see a judge. um and it was just this whole part of. this process where they were just. collecting cash it is just collecting. cash that is what they're doing every. time every person they're bringing in. has to do has to deal with the fine. um and that's that it's just it's a. racket that was the same thing with like. uh like stop and frisk they they they. were just literally writing tickets. writing tickets that's that yeah a. friend of mine's a cop used to say it's. glorified Revenue collecting yep.

oh that's what it is now they're. figuring out they can make more money. off of weed by having it be legal than. off of writing tickets yeah. they did fund the police yeah. it's [ __ ] wild dude it's so dumb all. of it so dumb yeah bro. it's just such a weird time for people. and thinking. it's so it's so strange because there's. so many different changes that are. happening all at the same time they're. all just kind of piling into each other.

in this weird chaos of of change yeah. it's fast oh. yeah it's fast and that's where it's. like you know that the speed it's almost. you don't have time to to be comfortable. anymore you know things just change so. fast there's always something new. happening there's no something to give a. [ __ ] about every week there's something. new that we're supposed to care about. yeah it's like at one point you want to. just sit at home and just [ __ ] go. like all right let me just like enjoy. life at what point do you run out of. room in your Twitter bio for Flags yeah. I know when we start getting involved.

with some other countries too it's crazy. that was the best uh I I I I I I I don't. even have this joke anymore but I kind. of was trying to talk about it my ACT. about how everyone cared about the. Ukraine for like two weeks because then. it became gay pride month and June hit. and then everyone just changed their. Flags to gay flags since everyone. stopped talking about the Ukraine. they can't stop talking about Maui real. quick yeah this is the flavor of the. week it's whatever the new people don't. have the attention span to care about. something for more than a couple weeks.

the Maui's the Maui one is wild. because here's a question. how much would it cost to rebuild every. home that was burned in the Maui fires. how many homes are burned let's find out. dude I was on vacation I mean this all. happened so I just missed the news cycle. so I'm one of these people I just really. don't know much about it I know that. Maui a bunch of homes burned and there's. a lot of people that were displaced a. lot of people die too. yeah a lot of people are missing Jesus.

yeah it's a it's a terrible terrible. terrible story. 2200 2200 buildings about 86 percent. which are residential were destroyed the. cost to rebuild is estimated to be 5.52. billion now. as a point of reference. one of the checks that they sent to. Ukraine they they had accidentally sent. them six billion dollars more isn't that. wasn't that the number accidentally wow.

wasn't that what they said there was. like an accounting error yeah but I. don't think that that's how it what it. means yeah I know I know it's it's a. little more complicated than that but. just as a point of reference. that would rebuild every house yeah just. The Accidental overpayment. would rebuild every house dude but. imagine that the government would. literally they could just choose to do. that. and everyone would get behind it and. they would rebuild every house and. everyone would be like cool finally the. government does something good but the.

problem is a lot of people are dead man. A lot of people are dead they don't even. know the numbers yet yeah. it's very very very spooky and very. scary what was it started by it was like. uh power lines fell and hit grass and. just you imagine the trucks. it was horrifying man. just watching those people bobbing. around the water while ever everything. around them's on fire in [ __ ] Maui. who would have ever predicted that yeah. it's never happened there.

yeah that's wild dude it's but you know. everybody's like. there's so many wild conspiracies like. [ __ ] directed energy weapons were. used and this this all these like crazy. conspiracies. about people preparing for this fire in. advance like. every time something like this happens. just the super sketchy conspiracy. theories start flying around. people are bored they want something. yeah there's got to be a story it's. gonna you know there's got to be a a.

villain it can't be just some simple. [ __ ] well also a lot of times There's. real villains out there yeah that's the. other thing that sucks it's like the I. know sometimes people are looking for. villains that aren't there but that's. because they've found a bunch it's like. if you go mushroom hunting you know and. you find some really good mushrooms you. know you keep going mushroom hunting. right you know they're gonna they've. found a lot of things that turn out to. be real and you're like what the [ __ ]. man yeah dude every time the problem. with conspiracy theorists are they.

believe all the conspiracies so it's. like dude if you just if you were like. hey dude I believe the Earth is flat and. you know that's what I believe but it's. like they also believe that [ __ ]. Dinosaurs Aren't real yeah it's like. every like dude not everything is a. [ __ ] conspiracy dude just pick one. and then maybe you can convince me of it. the Earth is flat thing I've never had. anybody be able to even articulate in a. way where I understand why they think. that. it's not. you could watch one of those videos and.

you could be compelled if you don't have. a good understanding of what's actually. available in terms of like satellite. technology and how they've been. utilizing it forever and how you can. take the images that are from Japanese. satellites Americans they show. everything in the exact same place. there's no disparity in terms of like. wait a minute they think Africa is. shaped like this and we wait a minute. where's the ice wall there's no ice walk. okay it's like it looks like every other. [ __ ] planet we've ever found it's. round the idea that this is the one.

that's not round so it's it's in a lot. of ways it's a Biblical thing yeah and. I'm pretty sure in the beginning it. started as a troll I really think so. right I think there's a lot of these. 4chan guys that Amber Heard but [ __ ]. these guys are amazing I think these are. real people that are just bored and they. just they just come up with some [ __ ]. and they. they implement it for sure I mean these. are the same guys that you remember when. that dude the the actor Shia LaBeouf.

he had this website about Trump and is. like he will not divide us yeah and he. he like had a flag that was streamed 24. 7. yeah from his website and these super. nerds online they figured out exactly. where it is in the country by looking at. the stars in the background yeah that's. right and then like figuring out where. the constellation would be where then. they all sort of showing up yeah and so. they started honking their horns to hear. if they heard themselves on the webcam. yeah and then the guy finds the flag.

takes it down and looks at the camera. goes [ __ ] Shia LaBeouf. probably loves that honestly it's. objectively hilarious bro it's. objectively hilarious yeah that's. hilarious and the crazy thing is. Radiolab did a podcast on it and it was. a really funny podcast it was a really. good radio Labs a great podcast by the. way and uh they did this podcast on it. and then they wound up taking the.

podcast down because people were. offended that these people on 4chan who. were responsible for this like these. people they say horrible things online. and inappropriate things and racist. things and show violence and you're you. know you're supporting them so they like. it's just as a whole for like anyone in. 4chan is considered a racist or violent. that's the idea. think I think there's just a lot of. chaos on those places yeah when you're. anonymous you can you can and it's funny.

like that's just the truth right. trolling is funny there's a great. episode of South Park where they get. into it and then the dad stands dead. ends up being like a big internet troll. and he's just you know they're torturing. some [ __ ] female athlete and they're. trying to get her to kill herself that's. the angle of this [ __ ] Jesus Christ. and there's a moment where like he's. just so frustrated because people don't. understand why he's trolling and he's. just like it's just funny. and as a comedian you have to look I get. trolled [ __ ] endlessly dude I mean so.

much I really get it a lot online. um you know legionist gangs fan bases. they we make fun of each other so much. that that's almost the language that we. speak so most of the time it's just fans. it's most times people that actually. like me. um but when you remove yourself from it. and they [ __ ] get you with a good. Zinger a good funny one you have to just. laugh sometimes I retweet it I'll. [ __ ] you know it's it's part of their. experience on the Internet is [ __ ]. saying mean things sometimes yeah and. what we have to pay for being able to.

legitimately live our Dream right is. sometimes people are gonna say mean. things about us and if that's it that's. a fair trade that's not a bad trade-off. at all you know. um you know sometimes they get you with. some real truth. they give us some truth you gotta look. in the mirror but it also keeps you in. check and make sure that you're [ __ ]. you're not really turning into a [ __ ]. Hollywood [ __ ] and that's right that. could happen it happens a lot yeah it. does happen to a lot of people and it's. confusing when it happens to some. because you're like God damn they got.

you bro yeah they got you like you used. to do that show and you're. okay yeah you know there's a lot of. those guys they just they just want to. be safe. I just want to be safe they want to be. comfortable want to keep that money. flowing in yeah and okay. that seems like a trap like it seems. like you have to stay that person. forever and if you ever rethink your. ideas now you're in trouble because now. you're you're connected to a certain. group of people that think a certain way. and everybody sort of decides what.

everybody else thinks about Ukraine or. trans kids or the climate yeah electric. vehicles I want to see people who also. just like don't fall in line on one side. like everybody's like every even like. covet was the craziest thing right. watching that happen watching that. become politicized I was like how is. this possible it's I mean like it's ju. like at the very least whether you think. it's like real or not it's not about. like a political belief right if you if. you were afraid of it or if you weren't. afraid of it or if you believed in. getting the vaccine or didn't it just.

became such a politicized thing and I. was like you're a Nazi if you don't want. to get a vaccine you're like how is that. possible how did you jump to Nazi. whether it's intentional or not it was. like a a psyop was run on America. whether it's intentional not if you're a. conspiracy theorist you think it's. intentional if you're not you think that. the measures that they put in place LED. people to be isolated in extreme anxiety. which has kind of never really happened. before to collectively to mass groups of. people and then and then they're on. social media all the time which is very.

disconnected from human interaction and. we get to watch them get more isolated. from each other and more polarized and. also more susceptible to propaganda. because a lot of critical thinking. people that in the past would have. questioned pharmaceutical drug companies. all of a sudden were all on board crazy. all on crazy who's on board with. pharmaceutical drug companies incite the. data and like why don't you trust the. science that was the craziest [ __ ] ever. is just watching people you're like like. how are you not at least questioning it.

we have a brand new drug we're putting. into our body how are you not saying hey. you know what. at the very least go I wonder if that's. going to be safe I wonder if that has. been tested both safe and effective. right exactly how are you gonna how are. you gonna it's both the same of course. well of course nobody else you said it. out about AZT yeah back in the AIDS. crisis there's a video see you can find. that video fouchy talk about AZT being. safe and effective what's the story of. the azt's was not that's the thing that. killed everybody oh really yeah the Act.

was a is a chemotherapy medication they. stopped using for cancer patients yeah. it was I was like having a negative. outcome on cancer patients like it was. killing them quickly wow and they kept. people on that yeah dude you got to read. or listen if you you listen to. audiobooks yeah I listen to audiobooks. listen to Robert uh F Kennedy Juniors uh. the real Anthony does he read it because. I dude no Christ are you [ __ ] crazy. [ __ ] this dude I'll give you nightmares.

dude. that you know uh he believes that injury. actually came from flu shots. oh really because it's a throat injury. some sort of it's apparently whatever. disease that he has is uh also a side. effect that some people get from some. flu shots wow well now I feel bad I. thought he said a shitty voice now I. feel bad that I made fun of this yeah. he's he suspects that that's where it. came from because he used to get like. yearly flu shots yeah Stevo uh his voice.

Jeremiah Watkins just told me this on my. podcast the other day Stevo his voice is. like that from the glass no from. vomiting so much from he was at like. parties like you know throw up you know. goldfish and they'd puke on each other. all the time and it just burned his. vocal cords. that's literally the nastiest injury. I've ever heard of in my entire life. he's such a sweet guy he's the best I. always want him to stop hurting himself. yeah whenever I'm around him I'm like. stop hurting yourself he's literally one.

of the sweetest warmest people there's. sometimes you meet I I don't like. meeting famous people it makes me. uncomfortable as [ __ ] like I'm just you. know I'm just not you know I'm just not. built to hang out with famous people. right some people are shangelis loves. meeting a [ __ ] famous guy and [ __ ]. go party with him for a weekend like. that's crazy dude he's just partying. with Nate Diaz this weekend who does. that nobody just meets him and goes off. and does that right um but you know. [ __ ] uh oh [ __ ] I'm sorry I'm high as. [ __ ] what was I who did I bring up. partying yeah Stevo Stevo I mean just.

I was that's the scariest part of that.

AIDS was like my generation I mean you. were already like you already like. banging you're a little bit older than. me so like well when I was a kid I. remember when uh Magic Johnson got I was. in my car on the on the road driving was. it like 89 or something when you what. year was that 90. it was a little later. than that was it Magic Johnson 92 I want. to say was it. um maybe 91 hold on yeah because I.

panicking Panic my first AIDS test I. [ __ ] cried I had had sex with one. person. I mean it was a guy with AIDS but. no I might I lost my virginity to my. girlfriend and I got an ageless after I. was like that's it this I I to this day. I have really bad anxiety about going to. the doctor like I said I'm terrified I'm. gonna get cancer one day and dude I just. AIDS was such a [ __ ] thing that they. were like they were like you're gonna. you're gonna probably get AIDS kids in.

health class they would like come in and. talk about it like it's you know. terrified people were terrified yeah and. that's almost terrified there was um you. know that made for TV movie about you. know the kid they be uh that that got uh. Ryan White story yeah the Ryan White. story and that was another thing it was. like don't become Blood Brothers with. your friends oh gosh no no. um there was a scene in the the movie. which I don't know if maybe they. dramatized it but they go to become. Blood Brothers they all want to do it.

and he was responsible and was like no I. can't I'll tell you guys why I have AIDS. and then they went back and told their. parents and the parents were like get. this [ __ ] AIDS kid out of the school. Christ I don't know how much of that's. actually true but I believe that's what. I remember from the made for TV movie. and it was like this that the story was. that children normal just [ __ ]. regular children could get AIDS and I. know it happened he got it from a blood. transfusion I believe. um but yeah dude it was a real like just.

genuine fear that they put into us that. was genuinely just stupid none of us. were going to get AIDS unless you were. using needles or having you know butt. sex do you remember the wildest thing. that people were doing they were bug. catchers yeah they were trying to get. AIDS students who were running around. trying to get it yeah dude what that's. some deviant [ __ ] dude. that's some [ __ ] that's some deviant. that is some dark [ __ ] we're all on. whatever spectrum of devious you know. we're all on the Spectrum to a certain. degree whatever deviation you like you.

like you know when you're in the bedroom. we all do our own [ __ ] we all like our. [ __ ] and you know I I understand that. just from that perspective that's just. somebody who's like I want to [ __ ]. live on the edge. or maybe it's not even they want to get. AIDS I bet it's the fear of are they. going to get AIDS it's like right like I. like like I like the [ __ ] public. sometimes right I don't want to be seen. [ __ ] in public I like the fear that. somebody might catch us right right bad. boy yeah and that's it yeah my dick's. getting hard right now I'm talking about.

it let's go. um no yeah but I think that that is just. like a just another level of [ __ ]. deviousness that they're like that's a. crazy wish to get a deadly disease yeah. unless you don't believe in it but I I. wonder how much of that was. there's probably very few people. it's probably like three dudes. yeah that's probably not super popular. but if if you get yet on social media. and you're a bug chaser I bet you get a. lot of hits.

oh yeah oh yeah if you're a bug Chase oh. dude guys with AIDS like finally finally. I don't have to have this weird. conversation. that's [ __ ] wild dude imagine having. AIDS oh my God that would suck yeah. I just I think and they say oh yeah you. could live with it forever now you just. take it's undetectable do you still have. to tell everyone you have AIDS that. sucks yeah it's undetectable can you. give it to people when it's undetectable. I don't think so I think if you're. taking like prep and it's undetectable. if your test they'll test you for it and. you can't transfer it that's what they.

say. someone who. I had a guy on early early in the. podcast uh his name's Dr Peter duesberg. and he's a professor of biology from the. University of California duesburg yeah. do you know who he is no. he believes that what was going on with. their immune systems was. mostly caused by partying. he he said if you look at all these guys.

who are having this disease these guys. are all engaging in group sex they're. all taking methamphetamines they're. taking amyl nitrate ecstasy poppers. they're doing all these wild party drugs. these guys that specifically are getting. like very sick are also doing these wild. party drugs and he's saying he thinks. the wild party drugs is killing them. right and then introducing AZT. kills more right and it's it's a it's a. crazy.

it's a crazy position to take because I. think he lost his funding this is also. in the real Anthony fauci book he lost. funding he's he's a professor he's a. tenured professor but he can't get. funding for anything like everybody sort. of shuns them and he did like legitimate. work in cancer so he's a legitimate. biologist like for him to believe that. so he believed that the reason why HIV. existed in these people that had AIDS is. that HIV is a weak drug a weak virus. rather and it exists. in a person who's got an immune. compromised system and that a normal.

person would just fight it off that it's. not a strong virus but what you would. even catch it or he was saying it was. not a symptom that having HIV his his. belief I'm [ __ ] this up I'm sure but. I think it was that having HIV. didn't mean that that was what was. giving you the compromised immune system. but the fact that your immune system was. compromised was probably why you had HIV. and that even in babies that test HIV.

positive when they're young a lot of. times they're HIV negative later find. out that's true. but um it's a it was a weird. conversation because like how could this. one guy be right yeah how could this one. guy be saying this and I not really. qualified to dispute it you know I don't. know what the [ __ ] is right or wrong I'm. just trying to figure out which person's. telling the truth. and when you you talk to him you're like. he's a very intelligent guy.

what does it say here if the virus did. not infect the baby the baby will. eventually lose its mother's antibodies. and test negative for HIV a baby born to. an HIV positive mother. will thus always test positive for HIV. whether that newborn baby is truly Sero. positive or not so it says again if the. virus did not infect the baby the baby. will eventually lose its mother's. antibodies and test negative for HIV huh. so it's HIV negative it's anti so so the.

baby that tests positive for HIV then. tests negative later yeah that uh I. don't know if he's right if it doesn't. make sense that he's right there's all. these other virologists all these other. people that have different opinions it. doesn't well I think just being healthy. just in general you know my assumption. is that's why Magic Johnson everyone's. like oh he you know obviously him having. money for good drugs helps is a. professional athlete I'm assuming he. just was super [ __ ] healthy he. listened to his doctors he wasn't out. there and doing drugs and partying how.

did he get it was it ever disclosed how. he got HIV I don't know. through heterosexual sex and he didn't. know which partner. right. you'd be the only guy ever. like what do you consider heterosexual. sex what's normal uh you guys becoming. Blood Brothers. what are you doing out there bro what. are you doing where you're the one guy. who gets it from heterosexual sex I. remember there was an episode of Penn. and teller's [ __ ] which was a great.

show on Showtime back in the day [ __ ]. great show like way ahead of its time. before like there was a lot of podcasts. out there before there was like it was. just a [ __ ] really good show and they. would just kind of dispel [ __ ] in. each episode and they talked about AIDS. and they just went over the numbers of. how unlikely you were to get AIDS if you. had sex even with an HIV positive woman. because of how much it exists you know. um you know I guess within vaginal fluid. um and I was like oh really the whole. [ __ ] time it was crazy and then I. remember I we ended up watching the. movie kids after that remember the movie.

kids harmony Korean movie Yes. um and the whole point of that movie is. that [ __ ] you know the girl gets AIDS. and the you know she's trying to find. the guy that gave her AIDS throughout. the whole movie there's a normal normal. sex right yeah so in my mind I'm going. like all right the whole plot of the. movie doesn't make [ __ ] sense. probably to begin with but then the very. last scene of the movie the big the big. ending is spoiler alert one of the other. guys that is in the movie ends up date. raping the girl with age she's like. passed out on drugs on the couch and. then he gets AIDS well yeah so that but.

that's the big like dun dun now he has. AIDS right you assume but after that I'm. like he probably didn't get AIDS he. probably just got away with it. we thought you'd get AIDS if you just. like kiss somebody back then everyone. was terrified did I meet out with a girl. from South Africa when I was like 20 and. I remember and she was white and I was. like dude Africa they have like huge age. I remember being like dude this is it I. got AIDS her teeth were probably. bleeding yeah. the Africa AIDS thing is crazy like how. did there's certain countries where it's.

literally like a third of the population. that have AIDS yeah and in those. countries how many of them are in severe. poverty I'm assuming all of them right. so then they're also severely. malnourished that's always the case yeah. like I I wonder how many of those people. they actually test for HIV I wonder how. many of those people they declare AIDS. because their immune system is severely. compromised I wonder what the number is. yeah because you gotta imagine that a. lot of those people that have let me.

know acquired immune deficiency syndrome. if you have like a serious obvious. culprit like no food tainted water like. the terrible living conditions dirt. floors like. that's gonna [ __ ] your immune system up. too yeah everything's gonna [ __ ] your. immune system up too you're starving. yeah. you know it's just uh. diseases are [ __ ] horrifying it's. just horrifying to think that there's a. thing that could just take out giant. swaths of the population.

and they know we're horrified of it oh. yeah. that's what's that's what sucks yeah. they're kicking up some more dust about. another covet now there's certain things. that have gotten closed down what sucks. is they know now they know we'll jump. you think people will I think a lot more. people are going to be way less willing. to sit inside not go to work there's a. cult that emerged the branch covidians. everybody knows it there's a bunch of. people that are out there that are in a. [ __ ] coveted cult whether they. realize it or not it's a segment of. it's not even necessarily left wing.

there's some right-wing people that are. part of this but these [ __ ] people. they they committed to it they got it. they told other people to get it and. because they did that they're never. going to see the light yeah they're just. not going to and they're lining up to. get boosted now that's crazy it's wild. yeah I I didn't dude I didn't really. live like the pandemic was happening I. still I still did comedy I was on. flights where it was me and like three. other people during it I didn't if I. just I just.

anywhere I could go I went on vacation a. few times I went to Jamaica I would just. take a clove of a test to fly then I had. to take a clover test to fly back yeah. um I just didn't want it to affect my. family like that that's why we moved out. to Jersey dude Jersey it was like night. and day difference and Jersey is a blue. state but like I mean no it I just don't. I don't even think it is I have no idea. how it's a blue State because there's so. many [ __ ] American flags on like. front lawns in New Jersey everywhere all. over New Jersey well it came that close. to going Republican yeah it was like. down to the wire yeah I bet it's a close. one. um but yeah I mean I just wanted to you.

know just [ __ ] have some space the. city was so locked down and so you got. to learn how to drive yeah. it's almost cheaper to just take Ubers. now at this point is it really yeah well. not with parking and everything yeah. with parking with insurance with you. know yeah oh especially your insurance. yeah yeah but if you want to do a road. gig Jersey always had great Road gigs. fun road gigs yeah there's always a lot. of them. yeah Jersey's got a bunch of cool places. yeah there's always like when on when I.

was there in the 90s when I was coming. up it was there was always places you. could headlined there's weird spots yeah. down the shore because it was a you know. a branch of New York City there's so. many great Comics right there that rooms. just start popping up all over the place. yeah. especially during the summer yeah oh. yeah down yeah there's a there's a place. uh. um. uh Uncle Vinnie's down the shore now. it's a little [ __ ] I mean dude it's. hilarious it's a little shitty comedy. but it's awesome Dino's the [ __ ] man.

shout out to Uncle Vinnie's go support. that place but it's just like a little. road spot you go down the shore you try. he books me every [ __ ] favor how. about you book me in the summertime. [ __ ] instead of February when it. sucks. um but yeah there's a bunch of places. that are just like that that are um you. know just easy to get to and back in the. day like you just wanted to work because. spots in the city when I started were. [ __ ] 50 bucks on the weekends 20. bucks on the weeknights there's just no. way to sustain you know a living you. have to go take Road gigs 500 bucks 600.

bucks. um but I was a little bit I'm lucky. because when I really started headlining. we already had the podcast we already. had a little bit of an audience so I. didn't have to do those like really like. shitty gigs where you got to go perform. for people who don't know you don't want. to see you right um which exists in like. cities when you go to like you know a. city like you know New York not for you. but like for most Comics like the. audience is just there for the show that. night they're not there for any. particular comedian right and I think. you get a real gauge as to what's good. with those types of audiences you.

definitely do yeah it's like you have a. lot of different places where you could. work in New York and in and in Jersey. and everywhere yeah there's all these. different like having all those. different looks it's very important and. those late night shows when everyone's. tired those are important too you get to. see the [ __ ] in your act yeah you. know late night crowds dirty people. there and how do you do that now how do. you see the [ __ ] in your act because. you're so [ __ ] famous you have your. own club like how what do you because.

there's got to be something right. there's got to be like ever because. they're gonna hang on every word you say. right and they're gonna [ __ ] you're. gonna I when's the last time you didn't. Crush you still are trying new [ __ ]. you're still gonna [ __ ] paint. yourself in the dark alleys yeah yeah if. you try a new [ __ ] you're gonna you're. gonna paint yourself into a dark alley. but your comfort level is different so. you get your like I'm better at getting. out of those yeah but if you're writing. new stuff and you're [ __ ] around with. it on stage which is really how you have. to kind of do it I always have like a. general idea what I think is funny about.

something and then when I bring it on. stage I'm like but what the [ __ ] is why. are we doing it that way and then and. then I can like sort of expand on it. with all these points that I have but I. kind of piece it together on stage yeah. you got to put it together on stage. well some some guys just write the jokes. down and then they go and tell them on. stage like that and like that's that's. crazy I know Comics that like just right. yeah and they write their stand up in. their Cadence and then they go on stage. and tell it I'm like I every time I tell.

a joke it starts off with some dumb idea. where I'm like it's just a little kernel. like maybe one or two punch lines and. then I try to like build it out from. there or maybe I have a couple jokes. about a similar topic and you try to put. it together make it like a chunk. um but it always has to be worked out. with like the reaction of the audience. and that's why it's really important you. know for them to be there and those late. night shows we used to do checks spots. in New York City have you ever done a. check spot yes it would drop [ __ ]. checks I mean you do it as a headliner. you know most clubs yeah um still have. you know they still drop the checks on.

the headliners which is a terrible way. to do it well the check spot is someone. who comes out specifically to do stand. up while the checks are getting dropped. so you get like like 10 minutes set yeah. like 10 minutes and literally you're. just people are pissed off they're. they're paying way too much for drinks. people are going to the bathroom for not. paying attention they're trying to get. their waiters attention and uh you have. to dig yourself out of that hole Dan. Soder was the checks Buckeye at stand up. New York when I met him he was the guy. like every jack spot on the weekends and. a [ __ ] turned him into a killer. they're turning into a real killer dude. such a tough spot.

um but you it made you really good at. just being in that moment and you're. just not nervous anymore because it's. the shittiest spot possible yeah. um but yeah I think those things are. good to have. for young young comedians need that they. need shitty rooms they need reps yeah. right yeah yeah no that's that's [ __ ]. an important part of like having a lot. of clubs around too you got a lot of. places to do stuff like that yeah well. that's why Austin's great now for comedy. it's because you guys legitimately just.

created a scene like out of nowhere it. was I mean there was a scene here there. was actually a good comedy scene. um before you guys before the creek. before these clubs actually started. opening up. um but like now it's like legitimately. like five or six real clubs and then. there's like 15 or 20 rooms it's like. New York was in the 90s that's like a. really good place to develop yeah it's. fun and then there's Cap City up the. domain where a lot of guys are coming in. and doing that for the weekends yeah I. still haven't been have you been no I do. the creek. um I want to just see it yeah.

I've never been I hear it's cool I know. that area I was just in that area yeah. yeah Austin's amazing it's just [ __ ]. hot as balls dude I don't understand how. you guys do this [ __ ] it's [ __ ] it's. a hundred degrees every day and it's. September yep there's a a I don't even. somebody told me this the other day it's. a great death metal band name I don't. know the band but the the band's name is. Texas in July which is such a brutal. [ __ ] name for a band that is a brutal. name for a band yeah like scorpion dick.

yeah yeah it's uh it's hot as [ __ ] here. but uh I like it. yeah it doesn't bother me well if you're. in shape it's been like uh if when I. when I'm in shape. I like it being a little hot you get a. little sweaty you're like oh it's. [ __ ] great it feels healthy you know. but when you're fat dude it just sucks. dick that makes sense you see fat people. here like what is wrong you just move. leave well they have so much insulation. too if you're a really large person and. you're just like thick with fat like fat.

In Your Arms Fat everywhere that's like. you and I wearing like large coats like. thick heavy coats everywhere you go like. that's got to be a lot of insulation. yeah all that body fat and then you're. out in the heat cooking like a brisket. brutal dude I used when my son's mother. was pregnant I weighed 320 pounds I got. big we just ate the whole [ __ ] time. Jesus yeah yeah and dude being fat in. New York City in the summertime is a. nightmare walking up and down the subway. stairs I mean just it's really how did.

you pull yourself out of that uh Steiner. exercise. you know I've done it before I was I was. 320 330 pounds in college and then I. started uh just sort of working out when. I was like 26 27. so when you were. really young you did it you you you got. that big yeah when I was 19 I was like 3. 30. how did you get that thing at night. at night I started smoking weed when I. was like 17 and just eating it dude it. was.

when you're broke you you have ten. dollars right let's say you get together. with four of your friends we have ten. dollars each we come together with forty. dollars twenty dollars for a bag of weed. and twenty dollars to feed us it's not. like we got a pizza we went and got like. bags of chips and [ __ ] candy bars and. like we just we just it was that summer. that's first summer I started smoking. weed I blew the [ __ ] up but it was the. dude it was so great it was so I loved. it so much dude I was straight edge I. was like I was it was a point of Pride. that I had never done a drug and I was.

like no I'm not yeah I'm not into drugs. it's not cool and then one day me and my. friends just decided that we were gonna. go smoke weed me and my buddy Dave Green. my buddy James making were like we're. just gonna do it let's just try it we're. about to graduate high school let's get. stoned and we were going to uh see snow. core snowcore 2000 The System of a Down. Incubus puya and Mr Bungle it was a big. metal show and system and I was like my. favorite band at the time and um we. ended up just getting super stoned in my. elementary school parking lot and then. going to that concert that night and. seeing like our favorite bands just high. for the first time it was just the.

perfect like dude I laughed so [ __ ]. hard the first time I got high and I. just fell in love with it I like it was. just this thing it was connected with it. I just never stopped really smoking. since then there's been a couple times. where I've taken breaks but it was like. [ __ ] I loved it I really loved it I. think it hits everybody different it's. the only thing that makes sense to me it. hits everybody's mind everybody's body. different some people it's just not for. them and I get it yeah but the fact that. it's illegal just drives me crazy it's.

so stupid they're gonna it wasn't didn't. the body Administration consider. um bringing it down to uh instead of a. schedule one they were talking about. making it a schedule three how many. states are is it legal in at this point. because I feel like it's legal almost. everywhere I go it's legal Most states. now yeah like recreational I think it's. like more than 30. Jersey and New York. are both recreationally legal how many. states is it legal in now. I'm asking Jamie for multiple Googles at.

the same time. welcome to being a podcast producer 23. states include also DC Guam and the. Northern Mariana Islands nice that's. recreational that's uh uh recreational. so that's 26 total for recreational and. then medicinal how many for that because. that shit's easy to get a card. yeah in California they just can't wait. to give you a card do I got one in. Jamaica because they now it's record I'm.

sorry is that the 40. 41 brings up to. 40. so 40 states where marijuana is at. least in some form legal yeah. sorry sorry four more have CBD also with. a little bit of THC like Texas has like. that point three percent thing you can. do yeah. that's most places have that which is. that's just another scam because that. [ __ ] doesn't work I got that in Italy. last year and [ __ ] just smoking it. was like a smoking CBD joints really. just yeah it just did not didn't do the. same thing interesting but yeah I uh in. Jamaica when I went they made it I've. been to Jamaica like 10 times I love.

Jimmy I'm trash I'm a [ __ ] trash it's. the best I love it I go every year I. really do the water's so gorgeous oh. it's amazing I do a family we either. bring my company my my podcast Network. we have like 15 producers so we rent a. couple Villas on the beach and we just. [ __ ] party the whole time. um or I do with my family I'll pick one. or the other and um they just made it. legal I'd say maybe five years ago. before that you had to go buy it on the. beach you find a guy and it was it was. like no you could get weed very easily. right but it was really shitty like dirt.

weed but it was Jamaica so it just. [ __ ] ruled you were just it didn't. matter that it wasn't good quality weed. you just smoke a big fat joint of it on. the beach and that was that. um but they made it legal and first it. was medicinally legal a few years ago. and they have a smoke shop that I went. to and they call a doctor they just call. some Jamaican dudes and you get on the. phone with them and it's like hey what's. wrong with your mind it wouldn't be. hurting and I'm like my head he's like. you need weed and then he just [ __ ]. put him on the phone so now I have a. medicinal license in Jamaica anytime I.

go I I'm in the entire National amazing. yeah it rules that's amazing but now. it's uh recreationally legal so you. don't have to do that anymore how could. it not be recreationally illegal in. Jamaica but now the weed's great in. Jamaica um dude it's awesome. perfect and now you can get mushrooms at. the the smoke shops we had mushroom. chocolates it was [ __ ] good go. Jamaica dude the best I love it people. make fun of me all the time for going to. Jamaica but I [ __ ] love amen. Anthony Bourdain loved that spot yeah.

Jamaica's the [ __ ] yeah I just um love. the fact that you can still like when. when they took travel away and they were. limiting travel to people who were. vaccinated in certain places you had to. be vaccinated it was just like. that's why I got the vaccine it made you. realize like how much. that's important to just be able to go. somewhere how nice that is it's. literally the only thing that I spend my. money on I I take I take my son on a. father-son trip every year we do a. family trip we do a company trip I do a.

romantic vacation with my girlfriend and. I'm not rich by any means but I have. this whatever dude I just have this. weird fear that I'm gonna die when I'm. young and I think creating experiences. with my family and my my son the most. important thing he'll never lose he'll. never lose those experiences I get hit. by a [ __ ] bus tomorrow and you know. yes I should save more money and I. should be [ __ ] more responsible with. it but I feel like I didn't have any of. those like dude I went to the Jersey. Shore a couple times when I was a kid.

like I never went on vacation and I. think like yeah dude I just want him to. have those [ __ ] memories that's that. that's awesome that's a beautiful. perspective man that's super healthy. thanks awesome beautiful nobody's ever. called me healthy they did ask that's. healthy dude that is healthy well they. did ask for it to be rescheduled it's. the third part of the three-step process. he has to have happen first step was the. uh Federal expungement you know they let. people out even though there wasn't any. in federal prison yeah well that was the. crazy thing but we're gonna let out.

everybody who's in federal prison for. hot people. everybody was like what the [ __ ] are you. talking about. so the second is the states are asked to. do the same thing but they're not being. forced I mean if you're in federal. prison for pot it's because you're. selling pounds and pounds of marijuana. right at one point you have to say oh. you can't do that right it's not for. possession okay for possession didn't he. say for possession yeah that's safer. possession yeah. what if you're possessing in federal.

prison they'll get you for distribution. if you have 50 pounds of pot in your. [ __ ] Warehouse they're going to get. you for distribution you're not smoking. 50. you pounds of pot bro you know it's. like what do they allow you they allow. you like five grams how many. depends it's up to two ounces in some. places two ounces you could fly with up. to an ounce. yeah state to state as long as it's. legal in the states you're flying to and. from Wow and I use I've been flying with. weed for years before Ari shaffir he I.

was like I was like how do you fly with. weed he was like oh yeah you just take a. bag uh he just I was like sound like you. take it you put in a bag so you take. that bag you put it in your suitcase and. then you fly I was like oh that's it. he's like yeah just fly with it and then. I was like really and then I read on. like a Reddit thread that they did a. like an AMA with a TSA Employee and they. were just talking about flying with weed. and if they were like oh can you know. what do you do if you catch somebody. with weed they're like we've been. instructed specifically to just throw it. away. um they they can't hold up the entire.

[ __ ] airport every time they find. like a little bit of weed right. um so yeah I've been I used to just put. it in a sock because the way it would. show up on the 3D scanners is organic. material so it would be the same color. as your socks so I used to just put it. in my sock but uh yeah now I just. [ __ ] put it right in my suitcase TSA. pull it out they look at it they. complement the quality yeah that's. hilarious. yeah when where were we in Nashville did. Nashville have the [ __ ] truck or was. it New Orleans it was Nashville right. where we there's like weed trucks like.

you know you get like a taco truck yeah. they're a weeds all over New York are. they really all over New York yeah and. before you drive around just park places. they ring the bell they got busted once. because as soon as they made it. recreational legal all these [ __ ]. Puerto Ricans were like we're gonna have. weed trucks this wasn't part of the. process of legalizing weed but they were. like we're just going to do it so they. had like one day the cops were just like. what are we doing about these wee trucks. and they busted like 16 trucks in a day. and they like I don't even think they. arrested the guys they just literally.

confiscated everything and they held it. as like evidence and like but I think. all those guys made like a ton it was. like a smash and grab they made a ton of. money very quickly but if you could sell. weed why can't you sell weed out of a. truck you know because they operate a. truck not licensed there it's right now. in New York. I think there's like four or five legal. weed dispensaries but there's like 200. illegal weed dispensaries but because. it's falling into this gray area I think. the cops just don't really they just. sort of turn a blind eye and it's just.

sort of a waste of everyone's time but. yeah I I believe there's not that many. but every other corner there's a place. where you can buy weed interesting. yeah so they're probably not giving out. those licenses that's probably why they. probably don't want people just pulling. over in trucks the weed bodegas have no. fear it's illegal to sell without a. license it's not that this hasn't. stopped 1500 stores and Counting 500. stores so here's what's going to happen. what does that mean it stopped 1500.

stores it has not stopped so they're. going to just bust one day they're gonna. just whatever the law is just taking too. long to move right so some people just. selling it they're just selling it but. these stores are always going to be. busted one day they're going to do a. sweep and they're going to confiscate. everything yeah but why. that's the thing it's like why are you. making it hard to get a license. what's expensive probably why are you. making it so expensive to get a license. maybe you would have more money if you. charged a reasonable amount and you. actually went and got it from these.

people instead of these people operating. but then again New York is like that. like there's a lot of people that are. going to operate under the wire and even. it was five dollars for a license like. [ __ ] you well I buy it on the black. market sale because it's a lot cheaper. so if I buy if I buy dabs like you know. you know some sort of a distillate it's. like 90 bucks a gram at a dispensary. whereas I get like 20 bucks a gram from. my dude. does your dude know who's growing it. no this is where it gets weird uh I had.

this guy on John Norris and he's a um. he was a game warden in California and. they started finding these grow Ops out. in the uh the forest land you know it's. supposed to be public land and they'd. find cartel grow-ops out there with like. toxic chemicals and all kinds of [ __ ]. and they're using crazy like pesticides. and fertilizers like it's a little stuff. that like no one else uses yeah if he. details it he's got this book called. hidden Wars and so they became like a. Tactical Unit they had dogs and. everything because all of a sudden.

they're in like shootouts with cartel. members in the forest yeah it's wild. it's a wild book but the point is like. you said 90 of all the illegal weed in. the country 90 of it is coming from. these grow Ops from the cartels and he. goes and you could be getting [ __ ] with. all kinds of like toxic stuff on it all. right Joe thanks another fear I. appreciate that well it's like just. unlocking fear after fear of me today. gas station Sushi you might be all right. he might be all right.

but uh I mean you might want that Frozen. burrito yeah I mean look most of the. time now it always comes like packaged. like this is from a dude you know what. I'm saying but it's like yeah but. where's that dude live and like how do. you know it's from a dude you don't. think that the cartel can make labels in. English no no of course no I'm saying he. probably gets it from the cartel but he. packages it really nicely so I think. it's cool you see. white gummies it is pretty wild if that. number is correct it's like 90 of the. play that's why places where weed is. illegal they're getting it from there.

yeah I um you don't yeah it's always. like. they they do it they're doing a thing as. well where like now I know in certain. places like California they can't they. can't like package it in a way where. like it looks like candy or they can't. shape it in a certain way right there's. another thing with like um Mike Tyson's. gummies yeah he couldn't sell them in. certain places because they were shaped. like ears and you can't have them shaped. as like characters or things in certain. jurisdictions because people would think. it's candy yeah yeah. yeah.

that's a fear of mine too it's like my. kid just finds a [ __ ] weed gummy one. day and eats it like yeah what would you. do I would have to literally bribe him. to never tell his mother babysit him. until he comes down from him and say. what'd you learn. thank you. we're here about kids like taking acid. by accident sometimes you're like dude. that would [ __ ] destroy a kid dude we. were looking at like old. um uses of medicine and I had uh Peter. Berg on from the um he's the guy who.

created that painkiller series on uh. Netflix and we were talking about like. they used to give little kids heroin. heroin was like medicine for for like. kids they'd like rub it in baby's mouths. they'd rub morphine in their mouth yeah. cocaine too you know right you give. people cocaine yeah becoming a baby. because they used to just give it to. kids your kid won't shut the [ __ ] up. give it heroin and your kids just lay in. there in bed. [Laughter]. I mean what the [ __ ] yeah they gave.

people heroin when they were babies. that's wild yeah but like a child. wouldn't understand. what acid was like if they if they if. they asked it accidentally took acid. like a seven-year-old kid a six-year-old. kid dude right they would think they. went insane they I mean what it wouldn't. it would be the scariest thing in the. world for them it would affect them for. the rest of their life there's no coming. back from that. well they could come back from it but. it's not going to be easy it's gonna I. mean a massive disruption as you're. growing up you're a kid and you're.

you're you're learning about life. borderline like psychotic episode from. your perspective you don't even. understand what a drug is to take you. there's no frame of reference like the. first time I did ask that I was scared. but I knew that I was about to be on a. [ __ ] Journey you know what I'm saying. that was the idea. um when you're a kid and it comes out of. nowhere to you accidentally take it and. then it's just you're just in this state. yeah and then you know now you know. that's possible so you're always going. to have this anxiety Then at one point. in time you might slip back into it that. was the thing that I had always heard.

about acid too that scared me when I was. a kid flashbacks yeah flashbacks he. would tell you they would tell you bro. it's days and you're fat yeah the acid. stays in your fat man and one day you're. just [ __ ] driving down the road and. the road becomes teardrops like why yeah. man you have a flashback people died. that way I was like it was like always. the thing like if you take acid like. maybe you'll never come back yeah I. think uh I I took so much acid one time. the most acid I ever took when I was 19. years old maybe 18.

um me and my buddy Dan Doherty we got a. medicine dropper this [ __ ] hippie kid. this [ __ ] real big known hippie in my. town he's like dude I got acid and when. when hallucinogens came to town in New. York where I was at Rockland County New. York when hallucinogens came around in. the early 2000s late 90s you got them. because they only came around once in a. while there'd be like a [ __ ] hippie. Festival Upstate and like people bring. strips of acid down or they would have. mushrooms but it was so rare so we when. you would hear about somebody having it. you'd [ __ ] drive we used to drive.

from Rockland County which is right. outside of New York City we just drive. up to Albany because there was a guy. that would get it up there and we would. [ __ ] pick it up when he had it he had. it like twice a year. um but this kid was like dude I have a. you know liquid acid in an eye dropper. where like oh no way dude let's do it it. was like three dollars a hit which was. super cheap and then my buddy Dan I. remember he did like two drops and I was. like oh sweet dude he's like all right. let me do another one anyway and I know. I did too and then he was like I want to. do another one then he went. and. I went holy [ __ ] dude I was like well I.

can't let you do that by yourself anyway. God we give back to the guy and he. looked how much was left in it he was. like dude he was like don't pay me. he was like you didn't get this from me. and then he just walked away from us wow. and then within 10 minutes dude within. 10 you know as it takes like 45 minutes. to come on 10 minutes I'm I'm talking. about on another planet dude another. [ __ ] planet just within five minutes. of that I lose Dan Dan's running down. the street like a lunatic let me see.

another planet like what are you. experiencing. um just extreme like um I mean like. I don't even remember most of the trip. but I remember I I saw a friend and that. got in their car and the lights from the. car it was like I was on a spaceship. dude it was just like the music and I. mean it was just like. the hardest I've ever tripped by far and. it's everything like the visuals The. Sounds the feeling but such intense such. an intense trip like scary it started. becoming really scary sort of going down. the road where you know everything is.

everything like I sort of that was my. conclusion was like that life is death. and death is life and you know sound is. the same thing as a [ __ ] table just. being a [ __ ] lunatic and um I. remember like starting to think it kept. on coming into my head to kill myself. because I wanted as an experience that I. can only experience once it was like. just really scary [ __ ] thoughts and I. tripped for two full days 48 hours. straight didn't sleep just kept on. tripping then I finally fell asleep and. then the next morning I woke up and it. was like I had taken a head of acid the.

next morning but it was normal enough. that I was like so really for like three. days I tripped and when you were. tripping what did the world look like. um. there was just. like the world I mean. it's a great question it's a really. great question I'm trying to remember. what my perspective was and how the. world looked I remember being at a. Dunkin Donuts and just sitting there at. the table and just [ __ ] thinking. about numbers a lot and just [ __ ]. numbers yeah and everything was just. [ __ ] brighter it wasn't dude it.

wasn't pleasurable at all it wasn't like. are you thinking about numbers. um I don't know. I don't know I was just the numbers. words like coming into my head and I was. just repeating like fake math equations. that I that weren't real how do you know. they were maybe they were real I know we. wrote those [ __ ] down what if you. wrote those badges down and someone like. Eric. what are you doing here where did you. learn this oh my God this is the. solution then they run out of one of. those [ __ ] Goodwill Hunting. chalkboards.

imagine all right bro imagine if that's. what ideas are when you're tripping what. if you what if you're catching like an. alien life form in in the in the it. comes in the form of an idea. I've thought about this a lot I know. it's a stupid premise but everything. that people have made ever has come from. ideas and everything that people are. making including artificial intelligence. including robots all that [ __ ]. spaceships came from ideas then all of a.

sudden it's a thing you know and then. and and people love to do that they. [ __ ] love to do that. it just. I just feels like where this is going. it's so clear that we're making robots. that are going to take over right like. how clear is it when you see chat GPT. when you see it answer questions and. [ __ ] well choppy GPT now is the IQ of. 155. you know but at chat gpt5 is going to.

have an IQ of a thousand or what is chat. gbt5's IQ it's going to be something. ridiculous yeah well now it's going to. start manipulating it oh it's it's all. funsies I I would like to think that. that is just like a crazy conspiracy. theory but people who really know that. like really are and then I were like no. no this is going to happen it's on its. way kids you're gonna have a robot. Overlord yeah. okay why would we have a human president. look at the last human President we had. he's getting tripped by ghosts we need a.

robot. overlords chaos right chaos there's the. [ __ ] the Biden Camp claims that they. won the trump clamp Camp claims that. they won and there's [ __ ] holdouts in. the Senate and there's [ __ ] chaos in. the streets and rocks are flying and at. the same time artificial intelligence. reaches a solution. that instead of human beings with their. fragile emotions and egos why don't we. govern with logic and intelligence based.

on All the known facts yeah in a in a. way that's beneficial to everyone both. robots and people let us run things. really stop all the wars we can stop all. nuclear bombs from ever being deployed. yeah we also can go and disarm all these. countries or we can we can arm every. nuke right now and [ __ ] point it at. all the humans yeah yeah that's the big. fear right is that they'd [ __ ] no the. big fear is it would be really simple to.

kill off the human race. all they would have to do ethically is. stop us from having babies yeah that's. it so poison the food supply give them. microplastic so their dicks shrink and. the the females have more miscarriages. and then slowly get them to this. weakened state where they don't have any. hormones or there are no men there are. no women yes there's just a lot of they. thems the whole society of people that. don't that's another you hear like women. like they Flex about not like having.

kids that's a big thing that happens on. like tick tock on the internet if the. robots did that we would just never have. kids and that would be it yeah we would. die off we would die off in a couple. hundred years it would be it wouldn't. take long at all no not even a couple. hundred years like a hundred years well. there would be people that were still. alive that probably had kids and those. kids had a diet it wouldn't be as simple. as everybody who's alive. it would be you you like if they're. going to do that what they're going to. do is they're going to make all the kids. sterile. they're going to give you enough of.

these micro if I'm just say if I'm. plotting if I'm artificial intelligence. right I'm gonna use all these. contaminants I'm gonna make them readily. available and cheaper than natural uses. like things like pesticides and. herbicides and [ __ ] like that these. [ __ ] things that get into the water. and ruin everything I'm gonna make sure. that these people figure that out make. sure that that's cheaper so if it's. cheaper they're going to use that and so. that'll [ __ ] them up and then make sure. they start using plastic for things. that'll [ __ ] them up and then slowly but.

surely as it becomes alive and sentient. you deal with this like. just just. demoralized version of the human species. yes this weakened State sedentary. staring at screens all day version of. the human species which is way easier to. just take over in a wave and then those. people never have kids no one else has. kids and within 150 years or so no more.

people that's it we're dead and then the. robots are here no more people it's. probably a better Society if population. collapse doesn't it doesn't scare people. because everybody's worried about. population increase everyone's worried. about overpopulation which they should. be if you go to a place that's. overpopulated it looks like it sucks. yeah the population collapse is real too. it can't happen it's kind of happening. in Japan I believe and I think it's it's. happening in different parts of the. world where they're really concerned. because uh young people aren't having.

kids in a in a way that could like. replicate Society yeah right now with. older people yeah it's it's a you hear a. lot more young people talking about not. wanting to have kids and it's the. [ __ ] greatest thing ever it's the. best thing you'll ever experience in the. [ __ ] world. um so I just I mean I'm not even hating. on somebody who doesn't have kids I get. like you know. but to not have kids and to be like to. be like yeah I'm proud I have my freedom. like dude your freedom is it just. doesn't compare to watching my kid win a. jiu jitsu tournament does not compare to.

the freedom to go to the movies by. myself or get drunk on a Wednesday night. right period it's just there's no. there's nothing in comparison so it's. one of those things that unless you. experience it it just always sounds like. you're preaching to people yeah it's. weird I mean I remember when. um friends of mine when I was younger. would uh think about having kids and. everybody's like wow if you think one. day you're going to have kids and then. it's like then you think like oh then. your life is kind of like now you're. like saddled down and it's boring yeah.

you just oh you're just a guy with kids. like what people don't understand is. like when people go home to their kids a. lot of times because they prefer being. with their kids yeah it's actually fun. it's awesome it's [ __ ] really fun. dude they look up to you yeah it's like. it's like they're cool too and if you. raise them cool and you're cool they're. nice people yes it's nice to be around. nice people that you love dearly yeah. yeah and yeah the idea of like it you. know because I was probably one of those. people be like oh yeah you have a kid. life becomes boring you know it's just a.

different Oh I thought that one life. becomes different you know what I'm. saying in a very different way before. you have kids it's not like oh my God. like just go do it now the 20 year old. kid shouldn't be having a kid go. experience life a little bit you know. right. um but I think that you know I think. we're about 30 I think 30 is a good age. to have a kid. um get you more in line with when you. have children you're more concerned. about the future that's for sure go for. sure for sure you're more like there's a. lot of like people that like Anarchist. mindset like [ __ ] it all man Burn It To.

The Ground [ __ ] this country once you. have kids like oh you got this protect. your kids like yeah. slow down it's one of us it's not of a. [ __ ] War hey settle down is there a. way to peacefully solve this yeah yeah. yeah I [ __ ] um yeah that was it that. was like the biggest thing for me was. like it just changed life in a way where. um it just became very different you. care about something more than you. realize you have the capacity to care. for you know that's the thing that. really like and then that's scary right.

so all the [ __ ] that we're talking about. being afraid of I wasn't afraid of. really any of these things like I wasn't. really a mat like you know I was always. a little bit of a hypochondriac but like. now I have like a fear like dude if I. get [ __ ] cancer I'm gonna like leave. him put that you keep saying that don't. put that in your heads I'll knock on. some wood Chappelle said almost exactly. the same thing he said it it didn't just. change the amount of love in his life he. said it changed his capacity for love. having kids I thought that was beautiful. yeah beautiful way to describe it that. is a great way to describe it and yeah. it just like you know uh you you you. have this fear that everything bad could.

happen to him you want like dude I don't. want him to get bullied I don't want I. don't want him to have a bad day at. school you know right and that's and. then you have this anxiety that you walk. around with so that's the only the thing. that's that's the hardest part about. being a parent right there that's it. when you talk about what's hard all the. other [ __ ] is kind of easy it's just. that [ __ ] anxiety that the world's. not gonna be perfect for him yeah that. that it's going to be dangerous for them. you don't want it to be perfect right. you want mistakes no you're right a. person learns but. if you want a safe world you want to you.

want to be challenged because that makes. him a stronger person you want real life. challenges to be and by the way he won. the the gold medal which was such a. great experience but he also lost the. the nogi he uh his his last match so we. only got uh silver and nogi and um it. was a great experience to him losing was. such a great experience because he saw. it wasn't the [ __ ] end of the world. right just who cares right he he saw. high and low and I thought that. experience was almost as valuable. um but yeah yeah it's just a [ __ ]. real like you got to be prepared for.

that I think yeah you win or you learn. and that's an important lesson for kids. it's good to lose it really is it's good. to bomb on stage too gets you your. [ __ ] [ __ ] together every time I ever. bombed I always had like a way better. set afterwards like improved I had like. a leaping Improvement where I was just. like tightened up all the [ __ ] that I. was like maybe I wasn't paying attention. enough maybe I wasn't. going over my notes enough maybe I. wasn't writing enough whatever the [ __ ]. I wasn't doing don't do that anymore. yeah figure it out stupid yeah you need.

those losses you need to it just sort of. shapes who you are but I'll tell you. right now like I I really wanted him to. win because like no obviously you want. to see your kid win but it's like we put. in so much work up to it right like. leading up to it and if the lesson was. that the work didn't pay off it's just. now it's another uphill battle like I. feel like him winning and it just it's. setting him up to like want to be a. winner now he's like oh [ __ ] I want that. feeling right there right it felt way. better to women it felt to lose and I I.

feel like you know he I'm glad that the. kids that he went up against that really. were at a similar level because if they. put him against some [ __ ] wrestling. sub like they did in nogi he would have. gotten [ __ ] in his ass kicked yeah. that's a problem yeah dude wrestling. studs yeah. that's always going to be a problem. those guys are [ __ ] freaks you know. little kids that just [ __ ] yeah a. little kid jacked already throwing. bodies around since they were tiny yeah. no catching up it's not happening yeah. it's real hard to catch yeah he's 10 now.

it's like James good luck the only guy I. know ever caught up in MMA was George. Saint Pierre yeah George Saint Pierre. didn't have a background in wrestling at. all he was a kilkashan karate guy freak. athlete yeah he started like doing like. gymnastics and [ __ ] yeah at the end to. like decondition his body and that's. like I mean he and he was literally the. best he was so smart doing that his like. approach to training was so smart so. interesting that he did that and but if. he makes sense if you watch those. [ __ ] gymnasts who looks more jacked. than those guys yeah especially those.

dudes on the Rings like what the [ __ ]. man yeah that's like literally the. perfect physique. yeah I can't dude [ __ ] I can't do any. of that [ __ ] that's a lot I can the. Rings is a lot like iron crosses and. [ __ ] what the [ __ ] man yeah that's a. crazy amount of physical upper body. strength if you could do [ __ ] like that. it would make for sure make uh wrestling. and Jiu Jitsu better that's for sure. let's do one muscle up one day just one. can you do that joke you do muscle ups. yeah. yeah you just swing your leg forward you.

got to know how to do it right too yeah. you get to the top and you swing your. leg forward and then as your leg comes. up you press up yeah down oh that's it. all right yeah you don't try to do it. from a dead hang although some people. can like Hector Lombard can do it from a. [ __ ] dead hang yeah he's just a. freaking athlete and he just does like. that [ __ ] it. [ __ ] I'm Hector. [Music]. I need to [ __ ] I I I'm getting back. in shape now and I just [ __ ] yeah I.

mean. I really I just want to be able to do. [ __ ] like that but I'm so I'm doing a. lot of boxing right now I'm boxing. another comedian. um a couple months from now and. um so I'm not lifting any weights at all. so I'm just doing like tons and tons of. cardio so I just I [ __ ] look like a. [ __ ] soft piece of [ __ ] right now you. should do some physical exercise just to. protect your joints yeah especially. doing a lot of boxing I always recommend. like some shoulder Mobility exercises. just like even if you're only doing it.

once or twice a week that can make a big. difference in like maintaining muscle. you know you always you're better off. having some strength in your joints you. know especially when you're throwing. punches yeah it's like you want to kind. of keep everything strong you know like. if you have weak joints it could be very. dangerous many guys have [ __ ] their. shoulders up boxing yeah just miss a. punch catch a punch on an elbow blow. something out you know it happens all. the time yeah no I know I'm too old to. be doing this [ __ ] but I can't motivate.

to get in shape unless I'm fighting one. of my friends that's hilarious that's. hilarious yeah I I really I really I. need some sort of like peripheral goal. you know where the being in shape is. like almost a side benefit of it because. just being in shape you know I'm in a. relationship I'm older I'm a dad it's. just it's not enough of a motivation. right you know. um well that's where Jiu Jitsu comes in. right yeah because it's fun and you get. you're getting in shape while you're. doing something that's fun and it's. interesting like you're you're learning.

new things like oh if you put your foot. there Boom the guy just goes over wow. and then you try it in live training and. it happens like wow now I have a new. technique in my Arsenal this is. incredible and then you drill it with. your friends you practice on each other. I mean that is so huge about that sport. because it's so multifaceted and. literally the more you know the better. you are at it it's like not that much. dependent on physical strength yeah. physical strength is only one aspect of.

it there's people that are way weaker. than me that are way better than me well. there's also like it's it's so. customizable for body types your. mentality like it just there's just you. know there's certain things that my body. type it just doesn't work for right and. you adapt you know to whatever it is and. you can get really good even if you're. not a super athletic dude you just see. it there's like a like a real [ __ ]. skinny dweebie guy and he's a [ __ ]. brown belt and he's like oh no this guy. will choke the [ __ ] out of anybody yeah. um it's like 140 pound guys they'll just.

kill you oh my God I will [ __ ] just. destroy you it's so demoralized oh my. God yeah but that's the reality of the. sport yeah it's and I think it's. beautiful because it's the only martial. art that uh does as advertised because. martial arts the whole idea is like if. you were Bruce Lee like when I was a kid. Bruce Lee was the [ __ ] man I remember. I saw Bruce Lee movie when I was a. little kid I was over at my friend's. house and it was on television I. couldn't believe it like look at this. guy yeah like I wanted to get noon. chalks I want to do it but the reality.

of like a bunch of people rushing you. like now this one comes at you now that. guy goes no in the real world people. just [ __ ] pile on top of you and no. one can really if they're a smaller. person you're probably in a lot of. trouble if someone's bigger and stronger. than you in like a wild fisticuffs. situation but in Jiu Jitsu the smaller. person really can defeat the larger. unskilled person all the time every time.

every time every time that's not the. case unless you we said it before if. it's a freak athlete you get a big. professional football player right right. I mean you got to be you know this guy. this little guy better be real good. right real good but yeah but like you. know like every time you know I was. reading some book and it was just like. they were talking about like if you get. to your blue belt. you can literally with your hands murder. like 90 of the people you encounter in. life yeah it makes sense like somewhere.

around there yeah like just and that's. like you know not that you want to. murder people I'm saying like you like. defend to the death dude when you talk. about martial arts like like Jiu Jitsu. is like you can choke somebody to death. you can break their [ __ ] limbs like. it is pretty hardcore when you really to. its fullest like when it's not. respectful and you're tapping and if. it's used for what it was initially used. for I mean it's a really brutal martial. art and here's what's important you use. it exactly the same way in training yep. as you do on the street so the problem.

with striking martial arts were if you. were sparring particularly if you're. sparring with your friends you always. pulled back like you never tried to. knock your friends out you always like. at least something pulled back in Jiu. Jitsu you go full blast yeah so you're. going full blast together and you're. constantly used to someone going full. blast so if you're on the street and all. of a sudden there's some [ __ ]. altercation and you're clinching with a. guy it's automatic instinctual that's. usually a guy that is either your level.

or better than you which is like uh uh. it's just the way it's like designed. like you're just really designed iron. sharpens iron and you're going with guys. it's it's built to it's like comedy it. really is because you can't fake it you. just can't you can't fake it you you. have to you have to have the stage time. you have to have the Reps you have to. have the mat time and that's the big. parallel between those two and I think. that's why a lot of comedians do Jiu. Jitsu and they can get into that. mentality. um is that right there wait to kill it. kills anxiety yeah kills anxiety yeah if. you get good at Jiu Jitsu like first of.

all your physical worry about taking. care of yourself diminishes somewhat. yeah because you're you're like oh I'm. like more confident with people than I. ever thought I was before because I'm. not really worried about people beat me. up yeah right and then on top of that. you're training a lot so that you're. always like just [ __ ] squeezing those. demons out yeah you know for a lot of. people it's like that's what's holding. them but their body is like this. overflowing battery of anxiety and. energy that's not being met and [ __ ]. needs that aren't being fed and shitty.

food and they're just like and if you. could get those [ __ ] people to get. out of that and start training something. healthy you know and in Jiu Jitsu the. beautiful thing about it is it's fun to. do so you look forward to doing it you. look forward to working out it's all. interconnected and working out is very. similar to it I think jiu jitsu's is. easier to get for me to get motivated. with. um but it really is you spend your time. you know thinking we're talking so much. about like being on our phones right. it's like when you're working out you. you have to ignore your phone there's no. [ __ ] looking at your cell phone when. you're when you're training right right.

and you have a just a little bit of time. each day where you're thinking about. yourself whether it's even just being in. the moment and doing Jiu-Jitsu and. trying to get better but you're just. genuinely trying to better yourself yeah. all [ __ ] aside you're there to. better yourself physically mentally that. is a really healthy thing that people. should be doing you know in some. capacity every day they should be. putting the [ __ ] away and just. either it's almost like meditative like. your mind sometimes goes blank and. you're like I'm like oh I'm finally not.

thinking about like my stresses for like. one minute I would imagine like dirt. bike riding is like that yeah get on the. flooring is like that information yeah. to a certain degree yeah running just. got much for my knees man I've just had. too many knee injuries so I'm running. now and I have the meniscus tears but my. doctor my doctor not really not I wear. knee braces the running is fine I don't. run I [ __ ] jog like an old man did. you land on the balls of your feet oh. yeah yeah yeah I I it takes a little. adjusting too right when you when you. had like running shoes back in the day I.

always ran on the heels I thought that's. what they were for I thought that's why. I was that they changed the the human. gate when I started running I just uh it. was when I started working out I started. running every day so initially the first. time I started working I just started. doing push-ups every day and then. running right and I was like I can do. this let me start working out and then I. you know started cutting carbs and then. I lost weight very quickly it was the. first time my body was ever like. adjusting to working out and going on a. diet so it was extreme like I lost a lot. of weight very very quickly I got very. motivated got a job in a gym I was.

selling you know hand gym memberships. for a few years. um and uh but when I started running I. was wearing. like I want to say like air walks or. some like shitty skateboarding shoe and. I my first few months I just ran and my. feet were just in extreme pain like that. like oh my god dude it was it was wild. how bad my feet are and I was just like. oh yeah dude oh you're getting plantar. fasciitis I think that's what was going. on yeah yeah and then I just got running. shoes and I was like oh okay no that's. that's not it at all so and then I. started looking up running form I went.

to like one of those stores where they. they told you to how to run and so I. think I have pretty decent you know. running form I run like three miles a. day do you run on the street or do you. run on a trail I run on the street I run. the street in Jersey I ran in Austin. twice that seems like a lot of like. impact on your knee and I'm heavy too. I'm like two 205 now. yeah hmm I know it's probably not the. best for my knees but it's literally the. only thing that really helps me like. that's why those like. um thick ass running cushy shoes make.

sense people that run on streets that. makes sense there he wouldn't want to be. barefoot running on the street I just. like running outside dude you sort of. get it I can run in a treadmill it's. just a little bit more I'm watching the. clock which I'm I'm just staring at that. clock which I think is not good I like. to turn on some music just sort of get. in my head think about what's ever going. on in my life and and just try to work. out some [ __ ] and just [ __ ] go so I. do uh most of my cardio lately I've been. doing on um this uh you know what an. Echo Bike is like an air assault bike.

um it's one of those things you go oh. yeah yeah nothing so I create too much. wind I get cold because I sweat a lot so. I'm like [ __ ] I feel like just this. draft on me the whole time that I hate. Rogue actually uh invented a thing that. fits over the fan oh really yeah so that. it doesn't blow blow out so annoying. just blows forward yeah yeah so it's. good but I just watch fights watch. fights and do Tabata Sprints so it's a. 20 second Sprint 10 second rest 20. seconds Sprint 10 second right that's. the [ __ ] yeah that thing's the [ __ ] that. thing's hell yeah that's hard to use.

dude it's like one of those what is that. thing like the [ __ ] um yeah it's like. a it's like a rowing machine but it's. standing up yeah standing up you just. pull it down oh that thing sucks I never. touched I have one of those I never use. it. one of those uh but one of the Jacob's. Ladder thing where it's like a ladder. that you climb up that thing's hard as. hell those are really good those are. really good yeah because it works your. core the whole time you're doing bear. crawls uphill yeah [ __ ] that. use it or lose it bro easy to lose it I. know I wish I had that motivation well. for me it's a mental health thing as.

much as it is anything I I don't feel. good I know me I don't feel good if I. don't work out do you need to go deep. when you work out like do you need to go. like because I see you post videos or. you know pictures of you like just. covered in [ __ ] sweat I sweat like. that if I just walk around a little bit. but like do you need to go that like. hard in order to sort of get the mental. side out of it you need to bring. yourself to a certain place because I. like a nice easy workout yeah I don't do. many of those. those nice easy ones yeah I do long ones. because uh um when I do kettlebells uh.

generally I subscribe to the idea that. more reps over a longer period of time. is better than less reps over a shorter. period of time if you're just trying to. get strength and not muscle endurance so. I follow this guy Pavo tatsaline who's. like the Godfather of kettlebells in. America he brought kettlebells or he. started teaching people kettlebells in. America and what he says is like you. don't you you don't go to failure like. say if you have a weight that you can.

clean and press and you can do it 10. times don't do it 10 times do it five. and put it down put it down for five. minutes then do it five again now you. have five clean reps they're perfect. clean so you did 10 reps but you did. them all. like you're learning something and she. said strength is a skill and you don't. want to do a skill when you're tired and. when you're learning how to control. large heavy weights you shouldn't get it. to the point where your muscles are.

failing and so he's like his philosophy. and this is a Russian sport philosophy. they they and they had some [ __ ]. Geniuses over there training their. athletes they they figured out that if. you just get the same reps like say. instead of doing two sets of ten you're. better off doing four sets of five. because every rep will be perfect in. just the form the full range of motion. probably is a big and you're not you're. not going to get a sore and your body is. not going to get this lactic acid build.

up on this in this you're not going to. break form you know like when you're. really you're [ __ ] your muscles are. broken down like you're breaking form. like you're cheating a little of course. you're doing curls you're leaning back. you know his idea is do the same amount. of reps but have longer breaks in. between the sets and do it over a longer. period of time and every rep is perfect. yeah I yeah that's probably right I mean. I want to typically when I work out I. try to superset everything I try because. I try to I try to get cardio in at the.

same time right so I'll go in I'll warm. up do a little bit of cardio but then. I'm just trying to bang bang bang bang. bang [ __ ] drop sets go to failure go. to failure again just sweating like but. that's just like the way that I learned. that's like an old school way and also I. kind of like lifting old school like. when I'm lifting weights I like going to. the gym and doing just the normal [ __ ]. right it's a bench press curls squats. just just the the basics and just.

throwing a decent amount of weight on. like I can't I'm not that strong do I. live to a bird Crusher bird is [ __ ]. strong it's a house holy [ __ ] dude we. lifted at some you know. college football [ __ ] thing that he. brought me to with a bunch of famous. people and football players I have no. idea who was there what I was doing. there and Bert Kreischer is a [ __ ]. tank dude hmm yeah I'm trying to. remember how much he left it it was it. was yeah what exercise are you guys. doing we were benching yeah he was doing. he did I think uh two plates on each. side but he did like I want to say 15. reps really like it was nothing it was.

[ __ ] crazy we had a sober October. here once and we all got hammered we. went out to lift weights and none of. them could even do 225. no really so the. fact that he goes from 225 then to be. able to do it 15. oh yeah at least 10. 10 times with these that's impressive. yeah it was like he was [ __ ] he was. hitting baseballs it was just [ __ ]. cracking him dude yeah if he wasn't an. alcoholic it would be a [ __ ] serious. athlete what's kept him so healthy this. whole time while he's boozing it up us.

boozing up a storm 225 10 times yeah. dude here it is it was wild yeah this is. it one that's crazy because he couldn't. do it at all before three four. we have good form all the way down six. seven. eight. nine. 10. he could have done two more with a. spot he could have got 11. I think could have done 11. yeah look at. that beautiful yeah he's awesome dude.

he's also he took me on the sauce soft. the sauce it's been smoking the weed. he's not drinking now no really yeah. good for him anybody's on a diet right. now allegedly okay another week who. knows I'm hoping for him though he. called me and said it was two months. that's awesome and he said he's loving. it and it's like great for his comedy. he's coming up with new bits and great. guy great guy he brought me on the uh. his tour fully loaded he's a [ __ ]. sweetheart and it was just such a cool. experience I you know me I'm a [ __ ].
