Joe Rogan Experience #1438 - Andrew Santino

1. 0:00 – 15:00

   (humming) …

   1. JRJoe Rogan0:00

      (humming)

   2. ASAndrew Santino0:07

      (laughs)

   3. JRJoe Rogan0:07

      You know who else carves guns like that?

   4. ASAndrew Santino0:08

      Who does?

   5. JRJoe Rogan0:09

      Jesse James. Remember Jesse James, that, that chopper maker dude?

   6. ASAndrew Santino0:11

      The chopper dude, yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan0:12

      Yeah. That dude, uh, makes guns now in Texas.

   8. ASAndrew Santino0:16

      That's all he does? He's still making bikes.

   9. JRJoe Rogan0:17

      I think he makes bikes too.

   10. ASAndrew Santino0:19

       Yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan0:19

       But he makes a lot of guns, like dope guns, like engraved and embossed.

   12. ASAndrew Santino0:22

       And hand carves them? Yeah.

   13. JRJoe Rogan0:23

       And fancy, fancy guns.

   14. ASAndrew Santino0:25

       That should... Uh, yeah, the dude that we were talking about, he's a, I think he's an LA guy, but he hand does them.

   15. JRJoe Rogan0:30

       He's a Mexican gentleman, you were saying?

   16. ASAndrew Santino0:31

       Mexican dude, a Mexican man.

   17. JRJoe Rogan0:32

       S- carves into the guns?

   18. ASAndrew Santino0:34

       Yeah, he carves, and he does beautiful artwork, all hand-designed. And then people pay him to do his design. They don't sug- they don't say like, "Here's what I want."

   19. JRJoe Rogan0:41

       Mm-hmm.

   20. ASAndrew Santino0:41

       The whole deal is you give him the gun, and he just does it. It's not like, "I want this on here." He's like, "No, no, no. You give me the piece. I do the art. I give it back."

   21. JRJoe Rogan0:50

       You know what's interesting about Bernie Sanders? Uh, what is this? Is this the guy with the guns?

   22. ASAndrew Santino0:54

       That's him, yeah.

   23. JRJoe Rogan0:54

       Let me see what this looks like. I was gonna say what's interesting about Bernie Sanders is, uh, his real close relationship with Killer Mike. Killer Mike is a big pro-Second Amendment man. I mean, he believes in guns. He believes you should be able to protect yourself and protect your family. And-

   24. ASAndrew Santino1:09

       And what? And Bernie's so against it?

   25. JRJoe Rogan1:11

       Well, I don't know if Bernie's so against it 'cause he talks to Killer Mike, and they don't scream and yell at each other, you know?

   26. ASAndrew Santino1:18

       "Kil- Killer Mike." (laughs)

   27. JRJoe Rogan1:19

       "In Vermont, we don't need guns."

   28. ASAndrew Santino1:21

       "I don't think we need guns in the Per- in the Northeast."

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:23

       How did he do yesterday? He won Vermont, California, Colorado, Utah, and is that it? And then Biden.

   30. ASAndrew Santino1:29

       Biden's still in the lead, right?
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   ... "I'd rather be…

   1. ASAndrew Santino15:00

      brain is not full.

   2. JRJoe Rogan15:00

      ... "I'd rather be in pain." Like, "This is stupid. I can't even enjoy a television show. I don't know what the fuck is going on." I'm laying in my apartment, I can't even watch TV, 'cause I'm so stupid.

   3. ASAndrew Santino15:08

      Right. Yeah, I hate that shit. I, uh, that, that's a thing that I, like... And I, and I think I have a high tolerance for medication and there's a weird-

   4. JRJoe Rogan15:14

      It's called being an alcoholic. (laughs)

   5. ASAndrew Santino15:16

      Hey, hey, Joe. Joe. A functioning alcoholic.

   6. JRJoe Rogan15:21

      (laughs)

   7. ASAndrew Santino15:21

      You could look it up though. There's a thing about redheads. Redheads have a gene-

   8. JRJoe Rogan15:23

      Yeah.

   9. ASAndrew Santino15:24

      ... where they have high pain tolerances and high tolerances to me- to certain medicines.

   10. JRJoe Rogan15:28

       Yes.

   11. ASAndrew Santino15:28

       And so, every time I've ever taken stuff, nothing really works for me the way that it's supposed to. You know what I mean? Like, people, people say all the time, like, "Oh, what do you... Just pop a couple Advil." Advil has never done anything for me in my whole life.

   12. JRJoe Rogan15:39

       Mm-hmm.

   13. ASAndrew Santino15:39

       If I could take three or four, it doesn't fucking mean... You know when they give you those, um, you know, if you go to a doctor if, if you've got some kind of thing like s- headache or whatever and they give you those super Advils, you know, that like, uh, triple the dose or whatever?

   14. JRJoe Rogan15:49

       Mm-hmm.

   15. ASAndrew Santino15:49

       I take those things and they're nothing, so I end up throwing them away.

   16. JRJoe Rogan15:52

       Why is it okay to discriminate against redheads? It's one of the last fun things to discriminate against people that w- would still actually hurts their feelings.

   17. ASAndrew Santino15:59

       Because, um, we're still white. (laughs)

   18. JRJoe Rogan16:03

       (laughs)

   19. ASAndrew Santino16:06

       We still are wi- underneath it all.

   20. JRJoe Rogan16:08

       Deal with it.

   21. ASAndrew Santino16:08

       They're like, "He still has advantages."

   22. JRJoe Rogan16:09

       Deal with it.

   23. ASAndrew Santino16:10

       Yeah.

   24. JRJoe Rogan16:11

       Um-

   25. ASAndrew Santino16:11

       It's actually, it's actually when I see, like, a redheaded Black guy, I'm like, "Oh, man."

   26. JRJoe Rogan16:15

       Poor fella.

   27. ASAndrew Santino16:15

       "Double down. Jesus Christ."

   28. JRJoe Rogan16:17

       I have seen, um, redheaded people that are really good at taking punishment.

   29. ASAndrew Santino16:21

       Mm-hmm.

   30. JRJoe Rogan16:21

       And I've always wondered... Like, I've read things about redheads having a higher tolerance for pain too.
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   Yeah. …

   1. ASAndrew Santino30:00

      athlete I ever saw as a kid. He was fu- he used to break baseball bats over his knee when he got-

   2. JRJoe Rogan30:04

      Yeah.

   3. ASAndrew Santino30:04

      ... mad if he struck out. I mean-

   4. JRJoe Rogan30:05

      Yeah.

   5. ASAndrew Santino30:05

      ... and it looked like a, it looked like me cracking a twig. I mean, but if you s- find, try to find a video of him shooting that bow, it's the most impressive thing I've ever seen in my fucking life. He, he, he whittles 'em and makes all of it himself at his house. He lives up in the woods somewhere.

   6. JRJoe Rogan30:18

      (laughs)

   7. ASAndrew Santino30:18

      I swear to God, dude. He's s-

   8. JRJoe Rogan30:19

      He was, he was on my friend Steve Rinella's podcast.

   9. ASAndrew Santino30:21

      He's an e- he's incredible.

   10. JRJoe Rogan30:22

       Leadheater. It's a really interesting episode.

   11. ASAndrew Santino30:23

       Yeah.

   12. JRJoe Rogan30:24

       So yeah. He's got a bow-making shop. He got really into bow hunting, but now he can't draw a bow back anymore. His shoulders are so fucked up-

   13. ASAndrew Santino30:32

       Yeah, he's so fucked up.

   14. JRJoe Rogan30:33

       ... from football that, uh, he has to use a crossbow now.

   15. ASAndrew Santino30:38

       But I mean, he's just, he's one of those guys that was... I guess the only way I can compare him is just his humility was overwhelming. He never-

   16. JRJoe Rogan30:45

       Mm-hmm.

   17. ASAndrew Santino30:45

       ... really was a loud, boisterous guy when he, both when he played and after his career. So that was the only thing that I think would parallel Bruce Lee, because everything I know about Bruce Lee is like-

   18. JRJoe Rogan30:54

       But he, this is my difference. He was a super accomplished athlete. Bruce Lee was-

   19. ASAndrew Santino30:58

       Yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan30:58

       ... a movie guy.

   21. ASAndrew Santino31:00

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan31:00

       He was a movie star.

   23. ASAndrew Santino31:00

       But you don't think that-

   24. JRJoe Rogan31:01

       He's a different animal.

   25. ASAndrew Santino31:01

       Yeah, I guess that's true, but I mean, but when you saying, from your perspective saying like he, he was a martial artist, right?

   26. JRJoe Rogan31:08

       Yeah. For sure.

   27. ASAndrew Santino31:09

       So, so then isn't that still true without the movie shit? He was a phenomenal martial artist.

   28. JRJoe Rogan31:12

       He was definitely a phenomenal martial artist.

   29. ASAndrew Santino31:14

       Just didn't compete.

   30. JRJoe Rogan31:15

       Didn't really compete.
4. 45:00 – 59:58

   Mm-hmm. …

   1. ASAndrew Santino45:00

      clothing store or something." Because it's like, go get a bullshit job so you can talk to people 'cause being at the house is miserable.

   2. JRJoe Rogan45:05

      Mm-hmm.

   3. ASAndrew Santino45:05

      He doesn't do shit all day. He watches Fox News and eats beef jerky. And I'm like-

   4. JRJoe Rogan45:08

      (laughs)

   5. ASAndrew Santino45:08

      ... "Get of- get the fuck out of the house, dude."

   6. JRJoe Rogan45:12

      (sighs) Dude, Fox News is designed for old people.

   7. ASAndrew Santino45:15

      It's on loop at my ... It's on loop in the living room.

   8. JRJoe Rogan45:17

      So many old people, when I go over their house, they're watching Fox News.

   9. ASAndrew Santino45:20

      Fox New- f- Fox News, man.

   10. JRJoe Rogan45:22

       And white men over 60-

   11. ASAndrew Santino45:23

       (scoffs)

   12. JRJoe Rogan45:23

       ... it's mandatory.

   13. ASAndrew Santino45:24

       (laughs) Yeah, dude.

   14. JRJoe Rogan45:24

       They watch Fox News and shake their head. "I can't believe these libs."

   15. ASAndrew Santino45:28

       Yeah.

   16. JRJoe Rogan45:28

       "I can't believe them."

   17. ASAndrew Santino45:29

       And see? And lock her up.

   18. JRJoe Rogan45:31

       "Can't believe they're trying to s-"

   19. ASAndrew Santino45:31

       Lock her up!

   20. JRJoe Rogan45:31

       "What are they, what are they trying to sneak in?"

   21. ASAndrew Santino45:31

       (laughs)

   22. JRJoe Rogan45:31

       "I don't believe them. I don't trust them."

   23. ASAndrew Santino45:31

       They run out of so much material. Sometimes when I come home to my, my, my parents' house and they've run out of material to talk about on Fox News and they start getting really heavy into pop culture, I'm like, "Go get a fucking shitty job at a p- you know, clothing store or something." Because it's like, "Go get a bullshit job so you can talk to people 'cause being at the house is miserable."

   24. JRJoe Rogan45:31

       Mm-hmm.

   25. ASAndrew Santino45:31

       Th- he doesn't do shit all day. He watches Fox News and eats beef jerky. And I'm like-

   26. JRJoe Rogan45:31

       (laughs)

   27. ASAndrew Santino45:31

       ... "Get of- get the fuck out of the house, dude."

   28. JRJoe Rogan45:31

       (sighs) Dude, Fox News is designed for old people.

   29. ASAndrew Santino45:34

       It's on loop at my ... It's on loop in the living room.

   30. JRJoe Rogan45:36

       Uh, so many old people, when I go over to their house, they're watching Fox News.
