1. 0:00 – 15:00

   Oh, yeah. That's all…

   1. RWReggie Watts0:00

      Oh, yeah. That's all he is. (laughs)

   2. JRJoe Rogan0:02

      Boom. And we're live. That's it.

   3. RWReggie Watts0:04

      Hi.

   4. JRJoe Rogan0:05

      Hello, Reggie.

   5. RWReggie Watts0:06

      Yeah, this stuff, purple venom. Um-

   6. JRJoe Rogan0:08

      That's what he calls it?

   7. RWReggie Watts0:09

      That, that's what his friend calls it. And, uh, yeah, his friend's like, you know, pretty skeptical, uh, skeptical about other people's stuff, but then he tried it.

   8. JRJoe Rogan0:14

      Did you have a coke nail? Was that a coke nail?

   9. RWReggie Watts0:16

      No.

   10. JRJoe Rogan0:16

       The left one?

   11. RWReggie Watts0:17

       No, I know. People think-

   12. JRJoe Rogan0:19

       They're super long.

   13. RWReggie Watts0:19

       People think that they're coke nails, they're not.

   14. JRJoe Rogan0:20

       Are they fake?

   15. RWReggie Watts0:21

       No. They're real.

   16. JRJoe Rogan0:22

       They're real.

   17. RWReggie Watts0:22

       Yeah.

   18. JRJoe Rogan0:22

       You g- but y- you don't do coke?

   19. RWReggie Watts0:24

       I don't do coke.

   20. JRJoe Rogan0:25

       Ever? Have you ever done coke?

   21. RWReggie Watts0:26

       I mean, I do Coke Zero.

   22. JRJoe Rogan0:27

       (laughs)

   23. RWReggie Watts0:27

       I have done, I, I have done, uh, (laughs) it's like Coke Light. It's like, it looks like coke, you can snort it, it feels like coke, but it doesn't give you high. Um, no, uh, I, I have. I've tried it, I would say, honestly, maybe four times.

   24. JRJoe Rogan0:39

       Mm-hmm.

   25. RWReggie Watts0:39

       And I've never ... It's always, it just felt like I just took three shots of espresso, and I'm not r- it's not really, it doesn't do anything for me that I'm like, "Ah, I'd better g- I'd better invest in that."

   26. JRJoe Rogan0:51

       I need to try it one day, because I just, I need to know what's going on.

   27. RWReggie Watts0:55

       I mean-

   28. JRJoe Rogan0:55

       I'm 51 years old. How do I n- I don't know what coke is.

   29. RWReggie Watts0:58

       I, you know, I think it's worth, I mean, if you don't, if you, you know, if you don't have a predisposition for being a hyper-addictive personality type-

   30. JRJoe Rogan1:04

       Oh, I definitely do, but-
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   Not champa. …

   1. JRJoe Rogan15:00

   2. RWReggie Watts15:00

      Not champa.

   3. JRJoe Rogan15:00

      "Settle down with your wooden, settle down with your wooden beads."

   4. RWReggie Watts15:02

      (laughs)

   5. JRJoe Rogan15:02

      "Settle down."

   6. RWReggie Watts15:03

      (laughs)

   7. JRJoe Rogan15:04

      "Settle down with your instinct."

   8. RWReggie Watts15:07

      Yeah.

   9. JRJoe Rogan15:07

      Those incense b- sticks.

   10. RWReggie Watts15:09

       Amber, amber sticks.

   11. JRJoe Rogan15:10

       Yeah.

   12. RWReggie Watts15:10

       Amber smells.

   13. JRJoe Rogan15:12

       By the way, uh, Miss Pat, after she was on, she sent me incense. Did she send them to you too? (laughs) Black pussy incense. (laughs) She was talking about it on the podcast.

   14. RWReggie Watts15:18

       What? Did she, did she make one?

   15. JRJoe Rogan15:20

       No, she was just talking about crazy-

   16. RWReggie Watts15:22

       Oh.

   17. JRJoe Rogan15:22

       ... incense, uh, flavors-

   18. RWReggie Watts15:23

       Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

   19. JRJoe Rogan15:24

       ... that, that she, she g- uh, she's aware of.

   20. RWReggie Watts15:26

       Oh, wow.

   21. JRJoe Rogan15:27

       And I don't think that she was saying she uses them, or people use them.

   22. RWReggie Watts15:29

       The, I mean, the thing is, you know that there's a niche market where people-

   23. JRJoe Rogan15:34

       Oh, yeah.

   24. RWReggie Watts15:34

       ... are making custom incense with names like that.

   25. JRJoe Rogan15:37

       Right.

   26. RWReggie Watts15:37

       Like they legitimately are-

   27. JRJoe Rogan15:38

       Yeah.

   28. RWReggie Watts15:38

       ... naming them that way because it's a hip thing.

   29. JRJoe Rogan15:41

       Yeah, that's a, a very specific kind of person, right?

   30. RWReggie Watts15:44

       (laughs) Yeah, very weird.
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   Oh, yeah. …

   1. JRJoe Rogan30:00

      guys were wild."

   2. RWReggie Watts30:02

      Oh, yeah.

   3. JRJoe Rogan30:03

      I mean, this is the 1970s, right?

   4. RWReggie Watts30:05

      Yeah.

   5. JRJoe Rogan30:05

      And, and these guys made a song where it started off great, and then for a minute and a half, it was just moans-

   6. RWReggie Watts30:13

      (laughs)

   7. JRJoe Rogan30:13

      ... and fuck sounds. Shake for me, baby. I wanna be your backdoor man.

   8. RWReggie Watts30:20

      (laughs) Yeah.

   9. JRJoe Rogan30:20

      Hey, ho. What?

   10. NANarrator30:23

       Uh, I was looking up this LSD-

   11. RWReggie Watts30:25

       Ooh.

   12. NANarrator30:25

       ... Grateful Dead thing. So their sound engineer, who went under the name Bear, which if you know anything about the Grateful Dead, they used the Bears. He was one of the only scientists when LSD was, uh, outlawed-

   13. RWReggie Watts30:36

       (laughs)

   14. NANarrator30:36

       ... that could still make it.

   15. JRJoe Rogan30:38

       (laughs)

   16. RWReggie Watts30:38

       (laughs) Wow.

   17. JRJoe Rogan30:39

       That was his sound guy?

   18. RWReggie Watts30:40

       Yeah. (laughs)

   19. JRJoe Rogan30:41

       Oh, Jesus Christ.

   20. NANarrator30:42

       He made over five million doses betw- in-between '65 and '67, it says.

   21. JRJoe Rogan30:47

       Jesus Christ.

   22. RWReggie Watts30:47

       Whoa. (laughs)

   23. NANarrator30:48

       So they had their own personal guy, and he was the one that making the sounds, so...

   24. RWReggie Watts30:52

       If, if that guy's still alive-

   25. JRJoe Rogan30:53

       There you go.

   26. RWReggie Watts30:53

       ... man, they, they'll put him in jail for the rest-

   27. NANarrator30:55

       He's not, he died in a car accident.

   28. RWReggie Watts30:58

       Oh.

   29. JRJoe Rogan30:59

       Oh, in Australia?

   30. NANarrator31:00

       Yeah.
4. 45:00 – 1:00:00

   Yeah, show me a…

   1. JRJoe Rogan45:00

      thing?

   2. RWReggie Watts45:00

      Yeah, show me a video that has that.

   3. JRJoe Rogan45:02

      Yeah. Just let me see. Are you sure-

   4. RWReggie Watts45:03

      That would be interesting.

   5. JRJoe Rogan45:04

      Are you really sure that there's... Have you tested the water? Are you a fucking scientist? Are you sitting over there with a lab coat and a fucking check sheet-

   6. RWReggie Watts45:10

      Yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan45:10

      ... making sure that the, the toxin levels are exactly the same before and after fracking? No, you're not. But why are you so interested? There's a thing that people do where they're, like, really interested in the interests of big business, and they want-

   8. RWReggie Watts45:21

      Yeah.

   9. JRJoe Rogan45:21

      ... like, they, they get-

   10. RWReggie Watts45:22

       Yes.

   11. JRJoe Rogan45:22

       And regular people w- who don't even have a financial stake in that business will make up excuses for the business.

   12. RWReggie Watts45:28

       I know. It's crazy, yeah, because-

   13. JRJoe Rogan45:29

       What is that?

   14. RWReggie Watts45:30

       It's fear.

   15. JRJoe Rogan45:32

       Mm.

   16. RWReggie Watts45:32

       It's just fear of losing jobs. Like, people like, losing jobs or losing the thing that keeps their, their bills paid.

   17. JRJoe Rogan45:39

       It's also, like, that no-nonsense right-wing mindset. There's like a no-nonsense right-wing mindset. "Oh, these fucking tree huggers."

   18. RWReggie Watts45:46

       Oh.

   19. JRJoe Rogan45:46

       "Goddamn tree huggers-"

   20. RWReggie Watts45:47

       Oh, yeah, yeah.

   21. JRJoe Rogan45:48

       "... trying to stop us from making a good living." You want those people to be poor? You want those people to... You ever see the look on a poor coal miner's face?

   22. RWReggie Watts45:54

       Yeah, yeah. (laughs)

   23. JRJoe Rogan45:54

       You know what I mean?

   24. RWReggie Watts45:55

       Yeah.

   25. JRJoe Rogan45:55

       There's that thing that they do.

   26. RWReggie Watts45:56

       Yes.

   27. JRJoe Rogan45:56

       That no-nonsense... So they wanna go with anything that's, like, good for the economy, but bad for the environment.

   28. RWReggie Watts46:02

       Exactly.

   29. JRJoe Rogan46:02

       Which is crazy.

   30. RWReggie Watts46:03

       It's totally crazy.
5. 1:00:00 – 1:03:36

   ... that was a…

   1. JRJoe Rogan1:00:00

      uh, the guy he killed, Dickinson, had publicly s- called her a bigamist because she married Jackson not knowing her first husband had f- not finalized the divorce or something like that, so- Hmm.

   2. RWReggie Watts1:00:09

      ... that was a bigger scandal that he was married to some already married woman.

   3. JRJoe Rogan1:00:13

      Oh.

   4. RWReggie Watts1:00:13

      And like that got outed, so he was like, "Fuck you, I'm gonna kill you."

   5. JRJoe Rogan1:00:16

      Oh my goodness. Wow. So he challenged him to a duel because of that?

   6. RWReggie Watts1:00:21

      And Jackson challenged him to a duel?

   7. JRJoe Rogan1:00:23

      Yeah. That and a, and a reneged horse bet, he said.

   8. RWReggie Watts1:00:27

      Oh my God.

   9. JRJoe Rogan1:00:27

      Cheated on a horse bet.

   10. RWReggie Watts1:00:28

       Oh, horse bet. Oh, you can't cheat on horse betting.

   11. JRJoe Rogan1:00:30

       Yeah.

   12. RWReggie Watts1:00:30

       That's, those are two big things, man. Don't say, um, a man's wife is a bigamist.

   13. JRJoe Rogan1:00:35

       (laughs)

   14. RWReggie Watts1:00:35

       (laughs)

   15. JRJoe Rogan1:00:36

       And you don't say... Like that's what they're shooting people over, fucking horse bets and shit. Yeah, those were barbarian people. And those are our ancestors. Just 200 years ago. You know?

   16. RWReggie Watts1:00:46

       It was, it was like very civil.

   17. JRJoe Rogan1:00:48

       Civil barbarianism.

   18. RWReggie Watts1:00:49

       Like c- civil barbarianism. (laughs)

   19. JRJoe Rogan1:00:50

       Yeah.

   20. RWReggie Watts1:00:50

       It's like well, we're barbarians, but there are rules.

   21. JRJoe Rogan1:00:52

       Well, that's one of the more hilarious stories of the Revolutionary War, right? The way the British soldiers dressed was so silly. They literally put a target on their fucking chest. They made their vitals lighter.

   22. RWReggie Watts1:01:04

       Mm-hmm.

   23. JRJoe Rogan1:01:05

       It made, like if you... You, you shoot guns-

   24. RWReggie Watts1:01:07

       Yeah.

   25. JRJoe Rogan1:01:07

       ... you know what it's like.

   26. RWReggie Watts1:01:08

       Yeah.

   27. JRJoe Rogan1:01:08

       You can see... If you could see things clearly, it makes a much more viable target.

   28. RWReggie Watts1:01:12

       Yes. (laughs)

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:01:13

       Period.

   30. RWReggie Watts1:01:13

       Yeah.
