    4. JR

      Cheers, sir.

    5. SE

      Hey.

    6. JR

      Crack one of these open.

    7. SE

      Yeah.

    8. JR

      So, are these your beers? You make your own beer?

    9. SE

      We, we make our own beer. I don't actually make it.

    10. JR

      Do...

    11. SE

      But-

    12. JR

      But someone-

    13. SE

      Someone makes it.

    14. JR

      ... connected to you and your company makes it.

    15. SE

      E- exactly. It's called Made Here, and every part about the process is made in America.

    16. JR

      I have your socks.

    17. SE

      Yeah.

    18. JR

      I have your underwear too, right?

    19. SE

      Yeah, yeah, I left you some stuff.

    20. JR

      So what else do you make?

    21. SE

      Well, we started with, uh, socks and boxers.

    22. JR

      Cheers, sir.

    23. SE

      Cheers. Um, and then we decided we wanted to do consumables.

    24. JR

      Wow, that's good beer.

    25. SE

      That's an IPA.

    26. JR

      Yeah.

    27. SE

      We have three different kinds.

    28. JR

      That's very good.

    29. SE

      Yeah. I don't know if you're an IPA guy, but-

    30. JR

      I love IPA.

  2. 3:375:34

    Diet, training setbacks, and the realities of “eat whatever” habits

    1. SE

      Are you doing-

    2. JR

      Oh, that's what it is. It's like glu- gluten-free. No, I'm not kee- not keto.

    3. SE

      You've... I heard you talk about it before.

    4. JR

      Yeah. I mostly eat meat.

    5. SE

      Yeah.

    6. JR

      Yeah, but, uh, um, uh, latley I've been trying to cut... I, I weighed 208 the other day. It's the fattest I've ever been in my life.

    7. SE

      Oh, wow.

    8. JR

      I was like, "Jesus Christ," because I've been dealing with this back thing that you saw, that I hurt myself, uh, doing jujitsu this morning.

    9. SE

      Yeah.

    10. JR

      Um, I've been dealing with this to the point where I've been doing a lot of physical therapy, and, uh, over the last few weeks, I've been training pretty hard again because the back's been feeling good until this morning. But, uh, I got out of a really... Because it was just trying to let everything relax, but I did not get out of a food rhythm.

    11. SE

      Hmm.

    12. JR

      My food rhythm went... I just... I, when I ch- work out hard, I eat whatever the fuck I want, but when I'm not working out hard and I eat whatever the fuck I want, I just start getting fat face. I start, I start chipmunking up.

    13. SE

      (laughs)

    14. JR

      I see this, this starts getting fat, and then I start getting the, uh, above the dick fat. You know what I mean?

    15. SE

      Ooh.

    16. JR

      You know that?

    17. SE

      Yeah, no one likes that.

    18. JR

      Yeah, where I could like... and I always get this fat here.

    19. SE

      Yeah. But you know what the other side of that is? Sometimes if you get too skinny, then you're like a little gaunt.

    20. JR

      Hmm, right.

    21. SE

      And that doesn't look good either.

    22. JR

      Yeah. Um, it's probably better for you though.

    23. SE

      Probably.

    24. JR

      Yeah.

    25. SE

      Yeah.

    26. JR

      I don't want to get too skinny, but I like being lean. I like being healthy. I'm, I'm really at my best when I'm like 195. When I'm 195 to 200, I'm okay, but when I get 205 to 208 and-

    27. SE

      Yeah.

    28. JR

      ... I'm just... Dude, I'm a glutton. I got a real problem.

    29. SE

      Just like the stuff, the things.

    30. JR

      I fucking eat, dude. I eat way too much. I have a real problem.

  3. 5:347:37

    Fast food wars and Austin culture talk: In-N-Out, Whataburger, Five Guys, and P. Terry’s

    1. SE

      But if you go to like In-N-Out, then you get like two and you don't feel bad. You get them protein style.

    2. JR

      Yes.

    3. SE

      That's not bad.

    4. JR

      That's a good move.

    5. SE

      Yeah.

    6. JR

      I heard In-N-Out out here is not as good.

    7. SE

      I don't know.

    8. JR

      Somebody told me it's not as good.

    9. SE

      I feel like it's as good.

    10. JR

      But that's a thing they say, like people... (laughs)

    11. SE

      That's a Cali- That's a California thing to say.

    12. JR

      It's one of those Whataburger enthusiasts, they'll tell you.

    13. SE

      Ah, of course.

    14. JR

      You know those people? Those Whataburger people are weird. It's like they're seeing life through a lens, like, "Let me wear your glasses." Like, "What do you see? What does the world look like to you? What color is the sky?"

    15. SE

      Well-

    16. JR

      (laughs)

    17. SE

      ... I feel like, (laughs) I feel like those people, and I don't know them exactly, but ... Or maybe I'm not, they're just not aware I'm friends with them, they'd be the same people who, who, like, resist change.

    18. JR

      Right. Right.

    19. SE

      You know? They'll be like, "We can't have in or out here."

    20. JR

      Bro, I grew up on Whataburger. Yeah.

    21. SE

      Yeah. And you're like, for Austin, you know, that's a thing right now. It's like, everyone's like, "Oh, can you believe, can you believe what Joe Rogan's doing to Austin?"

    22. JR

      Oh, that's so silly.

    23. SE

      (laughs)

    24. JR

      I haven't done anything. I brought in a bunch of funny comedians and Elon Musk. You're welcome.

    25. SE

      You're welcome.

    26. JR

      He was coming ... Elon was coming anyway. I didn't bring him.

    27. SE

      No.

    28. JR

      But, uh-

    29. SE

      But even he can't afford to live here now.

    30. JR

      Pfft. (laughs)

  4. 7:379:41

    New studio reveal and dealing with sudden mass attention

    1. SE

      Uh, the studio and this whole new thing, like, is, is really cool. I like it.

    2. JR

      Thank you. Thank you very much, man.

    3. SE

      It's like a spaceship.

    4. JR

      Thank you.

    5. SE

      Yeah.

    6. JR

      Yeah. We, uh, shout out to my boy Matt Alvarez who's out in the hallway. You met Matt, who I was making fun of his man bun.

    7. SE

      Oh, that was the guy who did all this?

    8. JR

      He built this. Yeah, he's awesome.

    9. SE

      Oh, wow.

    10. JR

      He's great guy. And he built the ... And there's a shooting star that goes across the sky.

    11. SE

      No.

    12. JR

      Yeah, yeah, yeah. It'll go flying across like every 40 seconds or so. And then Ways2Well, uh, hired, um, these Roadside Relics fellas. Uh, my friend Todd built this for me. Look at that. Isn't that dope?

    13. SE

      That's pretty cool.

    14. JR

      I can't turn my back very good.

    15. SE

      Dude, I feel like, I feel like ... I gotta, I just gotta point this out because I feel like since the last time we spoke-

    16. JR

      Yeah.

    17. SE

      ... you have gone to the stratosphere of, like ... Po- call it whatever, podcasting, radio, being a entertaining host, and now all eyes are on what Joe Rogan says.

    18. JR

      Yeah, it's not good. (laughs)

    19. SE

      It's wild.

    20. JR

      You guys should be paying attention to other things. Um-

    21. SE

      I know.

    22. JR

      ... I'm the same person.

    23. SE

      Yeah.

    24. JR

      You know? Well, you know what it is? It's like, what's, what's odd, I think, for them, is that an independent person, like, liter- lit- legitimately independent, who has a skeleton crew ... I mean, my crew is, um, I have a video guy, I have a booking guy, I have powerful Jamie, and, and that's it. That's the whole crew.

    25. SE

      Yep.

    26. JR

      I mean, and then it, it reaches some preposterous number of human beings.

    27. SE

      What does that, what does that feel like when they just use you as, like, clickbait?

    28. JR

      Uh ... It's not good. It doesn't feel good if I pay attention to it, but I don't pay attention to it.

    29. SE

      Smart.

    30. JR

      Yeah. I go, "Pfft, so what are you saying? Fauci's commenting on me? Why is he talking about me? What are you doing?"

  5. 9:4116:20

    Celebrity, royalty, and why fame distorts whose opinions matter

    1. SE

      Sure. I even saw, like, the other day ... I mean, you know, I was thinking about coming on your show, and I was like, "Oh, wow, this is, like, crazy 'cause he's, he's the, the center of the stratosphere, it seems like, what people are talking about." And I was like, I, I saw something about Prince Harry contenting on you.

    2. JR

      "Prince Harry went over me!" I was like, "Prince Harry, guess what? You're in my act now. Whoops." (laughs)

    3. SE

      (laughs)

    4. JR

      I was like-

    5. SE

      That's a, kind of a dumb move for him to say anything. I was like, "Yeah."

    6. JR

      Well, Prince Harry's a silly fella. I'm sure he's a nice guy. I'm sure he's a nice guy.

    7. SE

      Yeah.

    8. JR

      I wouldn't wanna be Prince Harry. I wouldn't b- wouldn't wanna be someone who is famous for being a part of a royal family. So you're literally famous for no reason. You're famous f- through ... It's not you're famous from, for your perspective or your, your, your work or some- something you've created.

    9. SE

      Mm-hmm.

    10. JR

      You're, you're just literally famous because you're attached to a monarchy. And you're atta- you're literally attached to one of the strangest situations, where people are worshiping the ancestors of people who suppressed their ancestors.

    11. SE

      Sure.

    12. JR

      I mean, that's what it is. I mean, I'm not saying that they're bad people, the royal family in England. I'm not saying they're bad people, but-

    13. SE

      Yeah.

    14. JR

      ... if you go back in time, you'll find some bad people who did some horrible shit. I mean, that's what Robin Hood's all about, right?

    15. SE

      And that's why we got out, right?

    16. JR

      Yeah.

    17. SE

      I mean, that's why America is America.

    18. JR

      Yeah. Well, I, my family came from Italy and Ireland. But yeah.

    19. SE

      But-

    20. JR

      Yeah.

    21. SE

      ... they got out.

    22. JR

      Yeah.

    23. SE

      But I'm just saying that's why this country ... We broke away from them.

    24. JR

      Yeah.

    25. SE

      We're like, "Screw you guys. We're not listening to some people over here telling us what to do."

    26. JR

      Exactly. Well, even over there, they gave up on them. They're just, they're just sort of a figurehead.

    27. SE

      Yeah.

    28. JR

      Right?

    29. SE

      I mean, it's weird, the, like, thinking ... The whole royal thing is a weird thing. Like, any elitist thing is a weird ...

    30. JR

      Yeah.

  6. 16:2019:41

    Modern comfort vs pioneer hardship—and the acceleration of tech and travel

    1. JR

      Depending on the character of the human that he gets involved with. I think he'd, he'd have to get involved with someone who understands how to work hard and struggle. Like someone who unders- ... who, uh, uh, like a strong character-

    2. SE

      Mm-hmm.

    3. JR

      ... someone who has like a strong will, like someone who, um, who knows how to do things, get things done, 'cause some people are overwhelmed by anything difficult, you know, bec- ... And I think that's the way society has sort of set us up because if you look at, like, modern society, it's really easy to get food, it's really easy to get some kind of employment for most people. It's really easy to survive. Medicine is readily available if you, I mean-

    4. SE

      In America.

    5. JR

      Yeah. In America.

    6. SE

      In America.

    7. JR

      Yeah. Or, uh, good point. Our society right here-

    8. SE

      Yeah.

    9. JR

      ... in America. And this is just relatively speaking. Of course people can get very ill. Of course people can die. Of course people can be in poverty. That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is comparatively, when you look at the rest of human history, it's really easy to survive today. So human beings are not as, not as comfortable or not as accustomed to like severe adversity as we have been throughout all of human history.

    10. SE

      Sure. Like running from a lion.

    11. JR

      Yeah. Or even-

    12. SE

      Like getting up in the morning and-

    13. JR

      Dude, I was looking at some pictures of pioneers the other day. There were some old black and white, like where the people had to stand still and they're ka-toosh-

    14. SE

      Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    15. JR

      ... and they did that thing. And the looks in these people's faces-

    16. SE

      (laughs)

    17. JR

      ... the hardships that they must have faced and-

    18. SE

      Sure.

    19. JR

      ... this, this house they built out of trees behind them and then this, the ... You want to talk about gaunt?

    20. SE

      Yeah.

    21. JR

      It's like, bro, these people barely had enough food to keep the heart ticking.

    22. SE

      Yeah.

    23. JR

      You know? They were all like real skinny or real (grumbles) you know, like just-

    24. SE

      No, I think about that a lot. I think about how we're so lucky right now in this point in history.

    25. JV

      And, and not that they weren't lucky and, and probably they didn't know any better and they were like, "This is great. My life's happy if, you know, if I was able to get shelter and food." But we can get on a plane and go anywhere in the world in twen- less than 24 hours. That's insane.

    26. JR

      Insane.

    27. JV

      And that happened over the course of 50 years, we mastered flying, which is-

    28. JR

      Nuts.

    29. JV

      ... nuts. I mean, we can go anywhere.

    30. JR

      Well, not only that, it's gonna get even crazier because they're, they're developing supersonic planes.

  7. 19:4128:33

    UAPs/UFOs: Nimitz encounters, propulsion mysteries, and government disclosure

    1. JV

      Do you think that that has anything to do with ... 'Cause I just watched this 60 Minutes last night about the, the uo- UAPs or u-identified-

    2. JR

      UFOs.

    3. JV

      ... you know, UFOs, but they call 'em uO- UAPs.

    4. JR

      Yeah.

    5. JV

      Did you see that? Uh-

    6. JR

      Yeah, unidentified aerial phenomena.

    7. JV

      Yeah. And do you think that has anything to do with it? Because ...

    8. JR

      It could. I don't ... I mean, who knows? Um, Jeremy Corbell is a good friend of mine and he's the guy who's been releasing them along with George Knapp, who's the journalist out of Las Vegas-

    9. JV

      Hm.

    10. JR

      ... who was the guy who originally broke the Bob Lazar story in the late '80s. And there have been, uh ... It's, it's interesting because they're basically a go-between. It's they're getting direct correspondence from people on the inside.

    11. JV

      Mm-hmm.

    12. JR

      Um, sailors, uh, com- ... Uh, like guys like Commander D- David Fravor who, who saw that Tic Tac, um, shaped, uh, object off the coast-

    13. JV

      Flying across the sky, yeah.

    14. JR

      Off the Nimitz that went from 80,000 feet above sea level to 50 in less than a second. And-

    15. JV

      Crazy.

    16. JR

      It's crazy. They-

    17. JV

      I went on the Nimitz, by the way.

    18. JR

      Did you?

    19. JV

      I got to go on the Nimitz for 24 hours.

    20. JR

      Wow.

    21. JV

      Fly in, land on the thing.

    22. JR

      Oh, my God.

    23. JV

      It was crazy. Gotta go.

    24. JR

      Does it ... Th- So it c- Like, a wire catches the jet?

    25. JV

      Full wire catches the jet.

    26. JR

      Fuck.

    27. JV

      The whole thing. Land there, get off, go hang with all the crew. I mean, th- It's a full city. It is a floating city. They have a dentist office. They have an infirmary. They have an ER. They have ... You know, they can do anything. They have f- And it's fully nuclear-powered.

    28. JR

      (sighs)

    29. JV

      So the thing can last, like, 50 years or something without getting refueled.

    30. JR

      Whoa. That is crazy.

  8. 28:3338:10

    Sharks, drones, and ocean ethics: overfishing, whaling loopholes, and wildlife regulation

    1. JR

      Could be.

    2. SE

      ... it's kind of like I see all these shark videos, right?

    3. JR

      Did you see that recent one?

    4. SE

      No. What's the recent one?

    5. JR

      Oh my God. There's one off of Massachusetts where there's a bunch of tourists on a boat.

    6. SE

      Oh, wow.

    7. JR

      Oh my God. This thing is so big.

    8. SE

      So big.

    9. JR

      It's so big. It's like a 15-foot-long great white.

    10. SE

      Ugh.

    11. JR

      It's swimming through the water right next to them.

    12. SE

      They're so... And they're so wide too.

    13. JR

      Dude, this is... This is a wild one because the guy who's, uh, filming is like, "Holy shit." Like, you, you can see this thing swimming in the water while there's like, you know, 50 people in this boat watching it.

    14. SE

      You see, I think though... I think a lot of it-

    15. JR

      You got a-

    16. SE

      I think they've been there for a long time. I think they've been there for a long time, and we just have more cameras. I don't think there's any more sharks. I mean, maybe because we're not... we're not hunting them as much, but I... It feels like there's just more cameras.

    17. JR

      Well, that's the case for sharks for sure because of drone technology. Like, one of the things they've done off the coast of Malibu is there's a bunch of people surfing.

    18. SE

      Yeah.

    19. JR

      And they're having a good time. "Yeah, man, taking in the waves."

    20. SE

      (laughs)

    21. JR

      And then you look, like, 100 yards off and there's a great white swimming around. They have... They're completely oblivious.

    22. SE

      Yeah.

    23. JR

      They have no idea.

    24. SE

      I'm a surfer, so I get that.

    25. JR

      Do you s- Where do you surf?

    26. SE

      Uh, well, I surf all over. I actually just got back from Mexico. I was down there just on a surf trip at the very bottom of Mexico on the border of Guatemala.

    27. JR

      Are there sharks out there?

    28. SE

      Oh, yeah. I mean, you don't see-

    29. JR

      You're cool-

    30. SE

      ... you don't see them.

    Orcas up close, bear attacks, and the brutal logic of nature

    1. SE

      So, I s- I ... It's actually on my Instagram, uh, from a while ago, Jimmy. But, uh, I paddled out in near-southern Baja and ... On a paddleboard with my buddy because we saw some killer whales. And we're like, "Yeah, let's just go paddle out there and see." And my buddy starts making whale noises. And I'm, I'm sort of like (laughs) , "Okay, dude. Okay, ha ha." Like, "Ha, you're gonna get them. They're gonna come back." They make a U-turn. (gasps) A mom and a baby orca combed up to us. We're on an inflatable paddleboard.

    2. JR

      Is this you guys?

    3. SE

      Yep, this is it.

    4. JR

      Oh, my God.

    5. SE

      And they-

    6. JR

      Whoa, that's crazy.

    7. SE

      Uh-huh.

    8. JR

      Oh, my God (laughs) , they're under you.

    9. SE

      And so, and so at this point I, uh, uh, now, like, I'm like, "Oh my God, this is so cool."

    10. NA

      And then they sw-

    11. SE

      And then I freak out because then I'm like, "Hey bro-

    12. JR

      (laughs)

    13. SE

      ... stop. You can't ... Now we're the prey."

    14. JR

      You don't even have life vests on. (laughs)

    15. SE

      We're the prey. (laughs)

    16. JR

      That's incredible. I wanna hear these fucking news people talk about it. "Incredible."

    17. SE

      (laughs)

    18. JR

      "Scott Eastwood off the coast of Mexico, spots a killer whale."

    19. SE

      (laughs) That's, that's ... I think that's what they said.

    20. JR

      My favorite, um, broadcast moment of all time was like, one of ... It was one of these guys that's doing that. "He does this thing where he talks like this." And then a bee-

    21. SE

      Oh, yeah.

    22. JR

      ... gets on him.

    23. SE

      I've seen this.

    24. JR

      Says, "You motherfucker, get the fuck off-" (laughs)

    25. SE

      (laughs)

    26. JR

      So good.

    27. SE

      So good.

    28. JR

      Like, we need like real people news. We need like a r-

    29. SE

      Yes.

    30. JR

      Like, that guy just to drop all that bullshit and just b- be who you are when the bee was going after you.

  10. 46:581:20:09

    Conflict, internet pile-ons, and the ‘Denise’ example of online tribes

    1. SE

      It's crazy though, like, to think about the things we do (bang sound) to other humans.

    2. JR

      Yeah. Horrible.

    3. SE

      The, like, the, the atrocities, just things. And we're, we're an evolved so- society at this point. We're an evolved species, kind of, not really.

    4. JR

      The most, well, really, the most evolved the world's ever known.

    5. SE

      Yeah.

    6. JR

      Well, the abso- look, we are n- certainly not perfect but when it comes to conflict, we are the most evolved the world has ever known because we can, we can protest this conflict. Like, look at what's going on right now with Israel and Palestine. Whatever side of the fence you fall on, and I don't wanna be political about this, but I wanna say that the world is watching and the world is watching what's happening in Gaza. The world is d- and then people have their opinions one way or the other. But everyone is aware of what's going on in a way that has, is unprecedented. Like, if you g- you wanna go back to World War II, we would get newspapers from World War II, right? We would get, they would, they would show, uh, before movies, they would show news clips when you could see what's happening overseas and people would kind of try to put together a sense of what's going on. There's n- there's no real footage when they stormed the beach at Normandy, right?

    7. SE

      No.

    8. JR

      I mean, but we know-

    9. SE

      No GoPros.

    10. JR

      We know it must've been horrific. Horrific. But now we get to see things. We get to see the iron curtain over Israel. We get to see the, the rockets flying back and forth. It's fucking crazy. We get to see things.

    11. SE

      Oh, I mean, it's, it's just nuts. Over, I mean, over what? Like what... At the end of the day-

    12. JR

      I don't understand it.

    13. SE

      ... I mean, we, we're only just here for this little-

    14. JR

      Yeah.

    15. SE

      ... little blip and then it's gone. It's over. We're dust and we spend it hating each other, fighting each other. It's just, it's sad.

    16. JR

      Most of it, in my opinion, is an extreme lack of either one-on-one communication or the ability to come, to, to u- to understand each other.Like, if you're talking about countries, like it's, like China versus United States, or Russia versus United States, what... Like, we're not talking to them. We don't even know what their language sound. We don't understand what they're saying, right? If, if we had some sort of a war with China, we don't even know what their perspective is. We can't, we don't, we, we don't speak their language, right?

    17. SE

      Yeah. We're all just humans. They're humans, we're humans.

    18. JR

      Exactly.

    19. SE

      We're all, we all have to do the same thing. We're all ... Inher- inherently, there's a lot of good-

    20. JR

      Yeah.

    21. SE

      ... and a lot of good people. Why can't we just come to that middle ground and go, "Okay, look, we're, we're all here existing. Let's just try to be better."?

    22. JR

      Well, I think people are inherently wrapped in conflict. I think we have been since the beginning of time, because conflict is the only thing that's allowed us to survive, right? Whether it's conflict, uh, getting, you know, protecting ourselves from predators, or conflict because of, uh, raiding tribes that were trying to take what, what we had.

    23. SE

      Resources, right?

    24. JR

      Yeah. We, yeah. I mean, if you're, if you're someone who's coming from a desert and you, you run into this oasis, and this oasis is filled with people that have a, an, uh, an incredible bounty of food, but they're trying to protect it, and you have children to feed, you go into war. I mean, that, that's what's happened throughout human history.

    25. SE

      Yeah.

    26. JR

      People have always attacked the other, and especially if the other speaks some sort of different tongue that you don't understand, it's, it's easy to-

    27. SE

      So you can't find common ground-

    28. JR

      Yeah.

    29. SE

      ... and say, "Okay, hey-"

    30. JR

      Yeah.
