    (drum music plays) Joe Rogan podcast.…

    1. NA

      (drum music plays) Joe Rogan podcast. Check it out. The Joe Rogan Experience.

    2. JR

      Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night. All day. (rock music plays)

    3. BM

      But you know why they got rid of it, right?

    4. JR

      Why?

    5. BM

      Black people.

    6. JR

      Really?

    7. BM

      Mm-hmm.

    8. JR

      That's why they got rid of it?

    9. BM

      So I w- yeah, this is, actually this is-

    10. JR

      Hol- hold these thoughts.

    11. BM

      Okay.

    12. JR

      Hold his thoughts. Tell me when. You good?

    13. NA

      I got it. I got it.

    14. JR

      Okay. We rolling?

    15. BM

      (laughs)

    16. JR

      Did he get that already?

    17. FG

      (laughs)

    18. JR

      Oh, Jamie already got that. All right. Let's- so s- finish your thought.

    19. BM

      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?

    20. FG

      Yeah.

    21. BM

      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.

    22. FG

      Yeah.

    23. BM

      That's when it was legal.

    24. JR

      Oh.

    25. BM

      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.

    26. JR

      Oh.

    27. FG

      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.

    28. JR

      Hmm.

    29. BM

      Different. Different crack, though (laughs) . Different coke, but yeah.

    30. FG

      That was crack. They said if that was coke, this was crack.

  2. 15:0030:00

    (laughs) …

    1. FG

      Right there.

    2. NA

      (laughs)

    3. FG

      (laughs)

    4. NA

      When it is below 20, you gotta keep the oven going.

    5. FG

      Open that oven up, man.

    6. JR

      They didn't have shit out here. They didn't have, uh, they didn't have plows. They didn't have nothing.

    7. FG

      Oh, yeah.

    8. NA

      Yeah, they, uh, this is what it snowed down here.

    9. JR

      And no one knew how to drive. It was hilarious. I grew up in-

    10. FG

      All they did was play football, right?

    11. JR

      I grew up in Boston, so I'm used to driving.

    12. FG

      Right.

    13. JR

      And I h- I have an apocalypse vehicle. I had a 1995 Land Cruiser built out with, like, a supercharged Corvette engine and-

    14. FG

      Ooh.

    15. JR

      ... lifted big tires. Like, I, I'd drive over anything in that thing. Big ass gas tank.

    16. FG

      (laughs)

    17. JR

      40-gallon gas tank.

    18. FG

      Jesus Christ.

    19. JR

      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.

    20. FG

      Right. Damn.

    21. JR

      I was like, "There's gotta be-"

    22. FG

      Bad huh, shit?

    23. JR

      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."

    24. FG

      Yeah.

    25. JR

      '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-

    26. FG

      Yeah.

    27. JR

      ... th- they drive forever. The-

    28. FG

      Every count- every third world country I go to-

    29. JR

      Land Cruiser.

    30. FG

      ... is a Land Cruiser.

  3. 30:0045:00

    Look at Conor. Shit.…

    1. FG

      You know what I'm saying? Like, that's-

    2. BM

      Look at Conor. Shit.

    3. FG

      Exactly.

    4. JR

      There's a video or a, a photo rather. Go to, uh, Shannon 'The Cannon' Briggs, uh-

    5. BM

      Oh my god, watched him this morning. (laughs)

    6. JR

      Go to his Instagram.

    7. BM

      (laughs) Yes, watched him this morning.

    8. JR

      'Cause he, he reposted a photo of Jack Dempsey-

    9. BM

      Mm.

    10. JR

      ... 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-

    11. BM

      This is why I say Bill Russell is the greatest of all time.

    12. JR

      That picture. Look at that right there.

    13. FG

      Wow. Wow, Dempsey.

    14. JR

      That's Jack Den- and, and by the way, that's the man that Mike Tyson idolized the most.

    15. BM

      Yeah.

    16. JR

      In fact, Mike, Mike Tyson even cut his hair like Jack Dempsey.

    17. BM

      (laughs)

    18. FG

      Yep.

    19. JR

      Yeah. Look at, look at what Shannon says. "Some of y'all tender because you never worked hard."

    20. BM

      (laughs)

    21. JR

      "You, you cocoa butters so skin soft."

    22. FG

      (laughs)

    23. JR

      "You gotta get out there and get tough. Join a boxing gym, take up mixed martial arts-"

    24. BM

      Right.

    25. JR

      "... 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!

    26. FG

      That's real shit.

    27. JR

      Yeah. And-

    28. FG

      That's real shit.

    29. JR

      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."

    30. FG

      Shoveled shit.

  4. 45:001:00:00

    Yeah. …

    1. JR

      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.

    2. BM

      Yeah.

    3. Right.

    4. JR

      How much is a ba- a basketball-sized chunk of gold?

    5. BM

      Size of... Yeah.

    6. JR

      How much is-

    7. BM

      A basketball?

    8. 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.

    9. JR

      That would be so wealthy though.

    10. BM

      Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    11. Like, how expensive would a basketball made out of solid gold be?

    12. Gold is what, like, $1800 an ounce?

    13. Converts to kilos.

    14. JR

      If you had to guess-

    15. BM

      Convert it to kilos.

    16. How much for a kilo of gold?

    17. JR

      How much do you think it would weigh? Like, a basketball-sized chunk of gold?

    18. BM

      I mean that's, that's weight, bro. Are you talking about-

    19. JR

      So much weight.

    20. BM

      Yeah.

    21. I would say about, like, 15, 20 pounds.

    22. JR

      Have you ever-

    23. BM

      A medicine ball? You think? Maybe.

    24. JR

      I don't have any gold watches, but if you ever pick up a gold watch-

    25. BM

      I got one.

    26. JR

      ... they're heavy as fuck.

    27. BM

      (laughs)

    28. JR

      You do.

    29. BM

      Yeah, shit heavy.

    30. JR

      It's heavy as fuck, right?

  5. 1:00:001:01:21

    Really? …

    1. FG

      Really?

    2. JR

      This is how crazy it is.

    3. FG

      You're saying this?

    4. JR

      This is why, this is why. Because Kimbo Slice was an internet legend, and he was fighting these guys bare knuckle.

    5. FG

      Yeah.

    6. JR

      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.
