- BMBrian Moses
But you know why they got rid of it, right?
- JRJoe Rogan
Why?
- BMBrian Moses
Black people.
- JRJoe Rogan
Really?
- BMBrian Moses
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's why they got rid of it?
- BMBrian Moses
So I w- yeah, this is, actually this is-
- JRJoe Rogan
Hol- hold these thoughts.
- BMBrian Moses
Okay.
- JRJoe Rogan
Hold his thoughts. Tell me when. You good?
- NANarrator
I got it. I got it.
- JRJoe Rogan
Okay. We rolling?
- BMBrian Moses
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Did he get that already?
- FGFreddie Gibbs
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, Jamie already got that. All right. Let's- so s- finish your thought.
- BMBrian Moses
Yeah, yeah. So, uh, the reason the .45 caliber bullet exists and the reason they got rid of co- or the reason they, uh, made cocaine illegal is because when Blacks were working the docks in the late 1800s, early 1900s, um, they had these things, uh ... There was a rape, obviously. That's what always happens, right?
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Yeah.
- BMBrian Moses
Emmett Till, all of 'em, right? So, uh, a woman reported a rape. And, uh, a cop, he came up and then c- he was ... There was a Black dude on cocaine 'cause they would give the dock workers cocaine to keep 'em up all night.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Yeah.
- BMBrian Moses
That's when it was legal.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- BMBrian Moses
And then there was a, uh, a coked-up Black dude, right? Real big dude, I guess. And, uh, a woman was saying, "He's chasing me," right? And he was just, he was ... I don't know what the fuck was going on. But the cop was shooting at him and there was no stopping power enough, they said, for the bullets. So they made a bigger bullet, uh, the .45 caliber bullet because what they were using was like, something li- like a little over a .22.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Damn. And you know, this is some real shit because it was a crackhead back in the day. I shot that nigga nine times with a TEC-9 and he w- kept running down the alley.
- JRJoe Rogan
Hmm.
- BMBrian Moses
Different. Different crack, though (laughs) . Different coke, but yeah.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
That was crack. They said if that was coke, this was crack.
- 15:00 – 30:00
(laughs) …
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Right there.
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- FGFreddie Gibbs
(laughs)
- NANarrator
When it is below 20, you gotta keep the oven going.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Open that oven up, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
They didn't have shit out here. They didn't have, uh, they didn't have plows. They didn't have nothing.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Oh, yeah.
- NANarrator
Yeah, they, uh, this is what it snowed down here.
- JRJoe Rogan
And no one knew how to drive. It was hilarious. I grew up in-
- FGFreddie Gibbs
All they did was play football, right?
- JRJoe Rogan
I grew up in Boston, so I'm used to driving.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
And I h- I have an apocalypse vehicle. I had a 1995 Land Cruiser built out with, like, a supercharged Corvette engine and-
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Ooh.
- JRJoe Rogan
... lifted big tires. Like, I, I'd drive over anything in that thing. Big ass gas tank.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
40-gallon gas tank.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Jesus Christ.
- JRJoe Rogan
I, I had it built because I was thinking some shit was gonna go down in California. I wanted to be able to drive where there's no roads.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Right. Damn.
- JRJoe Rogan
I was like, "There's gotta be-"
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Bad huh, shit?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, I have a family, man. I worry about shit like that. I go, "Look, I, I, I was, I always loved those cars anyway."
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause they're just durable cars. They, d- d-... You know, they use them in the jungle. They use them in the, uh, uh, the desert. You could... They just-
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... th- they drive forever. The-
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Every count- every third world country I go to-
- JRJoe Rogan
Land Cruiser.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
... is a Land Cruiser.
- 30:00 – 45:00
Look at Conor. Shit.…
- FGFreddie Gibbs
You know what I'm saying? Like, that's-
- BMBrian Moses
Look at Conor. Shit.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Exactly.
- JRJoe Rogan
There's a video or a, a photo rather. Go to, uh, Shannon 'The Cannon' Briggs, uh-
- BMBrian Moses
Oh my god, watched him this morning. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Go to his Instagram.
- BMBrian Moses
(laughs) Yes, watched him this morning.
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause he, he reposted a photo of Jack Dempsey-
- BMBrian Moses
Mm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... where Jack Dempsey was talking about what it was like growing up. And, you know, working and all the shit that he had to endure and bad food and just-
- BMBrian Moses
This is why I say Bill Russell is the greatest of all time.
- JRJoe Rogan
That picture. Look at that right there.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Wow. Wow, Dempsey.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's Jack Den- and, and by the way, that's the man that Mike Tyson idolized the most.
- BMBrian Moses
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
In fact, Mike, Mike Tyson even cut his hair like Jack Dempsey.
- BMBrian Moses
(laughs)
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Yep.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Look at, look at what Shannon says. "Some of y'all tender because you never worked hard."
- BMBrian Moses
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
"You, you cocoa butters so skin soft."
- FGFreddie Gibbs
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
"You gotta get out there and get tough. Join a boxing gym, take up mixed martial arts-"
- BMBrian Moses
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
"... before it's too late. Ask yourself, can I run three to five miles right now if I had to so that I could survive? Can you fight three to five minutes hard without dying from exhaustion?"... be tougher, prepare. Let's go champs. Go team!
- FGFreddie Gibbs
That's real shit.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. And-
- FGFreddie Gibbs
That's real shit.
- JRJoe Rogan
So it says there with, um, with Jack Dempsey, if you could scroll down once you read it. He said, "We ate poorly. We had very few clothes. We worked too hard. I fed pigs, chopped wood, worked in the sugar beet fields, shined shoes in barbershops, helped pitch circus tents and move heavy equipment, and even shoveled dung."
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Shoveled shit.
- 45:00 – 1:00:00
Yeah. …
- JRJoe Rogan
hay over here. You motherfuckers got gold? Just give me a little gold. I want, like, a basketball of gold." A basketball-sized ped- piece of gold would literally last you for the rest of your life. You could be a baller until your fucking heart stops.
- BMBrian Moses
Yeah.
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
How much is a ba- a basketball-sized chunk of gold?
- BMBrian Moses
Size of... Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
How much is-
- BMBrian Moses
A basketball?
I mean, honestly, yeah, because everything's going cryptocurrency anyway. If you just have this actual physical piece of value, yeah, you're the guy.
- JRJoe Rogan
That would be so wealthy though.
- BMBrian Moses
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, how expensive would a basketball made out of solid gold be?
Gold is what, like, $1800 an ounce?
Converts to kilos.
- JRJoe Rogan
If you had to guess-
- BMBrian Moses
Convert it to kilos.
How much for a kilo of gold?
- JRJoe Rogan
How much do you think it would weigh? Like, a basketball-sized chunk of gold?
- BMBrian Moses
I mean that's, that's weight, bro. Are you talking about-
- JRJoe Rogan
So much weight.
- BMBrian Moses
Yeah.
I would say about, like, 15, 20 pounds.
- JRJoe Rogan
Have you ever-
- BMBrian Moses
A medicine ball? You think? Maybe.
- JRJoe Rogan
I don't have any gold watches, but if you ever pick up a gold watch-
- BMBrian Moses
I got one.
- JRJoe Rogan
... they're heavy as fuck.
- BMBrian Moses
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
You do.
- BMBrian Moses
Yeah, shit heavy.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's heavy as fuck, right?
- 1:00:00 – 1:01:21
Really? …
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Really?
- JRJoe Rogan
This is how crazy it is.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
You're saying this?
- JRJoe Rogan
This is why, this is why. Because Kimbo Slice was an internet legend, and he was fighting these guys bare knuckle.
- FGFreddie Gibbs
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And Sean Gannon is a cop in Boston who's also an MMA fighter. So, they go into this fucking gym. I mean, this gym is (laughs) all kinds of fucked up. This is in Massachusetts. A bunch of people stand around betting on it.
