Narrator 0:04 The Joe Rogan Experience.

Joe Rogan 0:06 Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night. All day. (heaven by bobby womack plays) First of all, it's an-

Snoop Dogg 0:14 Yes sir.

Joe Rogan 0:14 ... it's an honor and a privilege. An honor and a privilege.

Snoop Dogg 0:17 No, it's my privilege and it's my honor. This is-

Joe Rogan 0:19 This-

Snoop Dogg 0:19 ... pure motivation, Joe.

Joe Rogan 0:20 Very few human beings that have managed to do as many things as you have, and to do it as ... Y- y- you've been relevant for f- f- fucking decades, man. It's incredible.

Snoop Dogg 0:31 Man, I work hard and I hardly know it.

Joe Rogan 0:32 I know you do.

Snoop Dogg 0:33 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 0:35 You do.

Snoop Dogg 0:36 But-

Joe Rogan 0:36 You know what the thing, the key to it all is, Joe? What?

Snoop Dogg 0:38 Everything that I do and everything that I've done has been based around fun. So-

Joe Rogan 0:42 Mm-hmm.

Snoop Dogg 0:43 ... the fun element has always been the, the key factor, like it has never been money motivated, it's always been, "Man this is fun to do and I love doing it." And then it was so fun, that it ended up making me fun.

Joe Rogan 0:55 Hmm. Well you've made, you've managed to make a career out of being yourself.

Snoop Dogg 0:58 Right.

Joe Rogan 0:59 That's where, that's where it's amazing.

Snoop Dogg 1:01 Yeah, but that's the easiest job everybody got, just to wake up in the morning and do you.

Joe Rogan 1:05 Yeah, but so many people have a hard time doing that publicly.

Snoop Dogg 1:09 Right, because it's so, it's so easy to want to be like something that's out there that feels like it's easier to do and it's more impressionable and it's a easy follow. When you wake up and do yourself, that's just the, the organic thing that you were built with that you know how to do in your sleep.

Joe Rogan 1:27 It's true, but it's this, it's hard for people to be themselves publicly, you know. They try so hard and they think about their image, they try so hard to, you know, cultivate something and ...

Snoop Dogg 1:39 I, I know 'cause I've been around those kind of people that gotta hide and then all of a sudden, soon as the lights go off, then they wanna come hang out with you and let their hair down and they start explaining to you how they can't, they can't... "Man, I wish I could do what you do." You can do whatever you wanna do, you just-

Joe Rogan 1:53 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 1:53 ... worried about what people are gonna say as opposed to the way you feel. I don't worry about what people say. Long as I feel good, I'ma keep doing it.

Joe Rogan 2:00 That's the way to do it. I think by your example many more people can learn. They could figure out a way to live their life authentically.

Snoop Dogg 2:08 If it feel good to you, must be good for you.

Joe Rogan 2:11 Um ...

Snoop Dogg 2:12 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 2:12 What about heroin? (laughs) Hey.

Snoop Dogg 2:14 I ain't, uh, look, I ain't trying that sh-

Joe Rogan 2:16 I ain't try that shit either. What are you-

Snoop Dogg 2:17 We are never trying heroin! Heroin! Heroin!

Joe Rogan 2:21 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 2:21 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 2:21 You've got your own mic. (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 2:22 Joe, I came prepared. (laughs) Quit playing with me man. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 2:25 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 2:26 Don't fucking play with me, Joe. I'm prepared today. Give me a, give me a li- give me a... Oh, I can use your ashtray?

Joe Rogan 2:30 Sure, of course.

Snoop Dogg 2:31 Okay, perfect. Thank you.

Joe Rogan 2:32 Of course.

Snoop Dogg 2:32 We're family.

Joe Rogan 2:33 Yeah. Get in there.

Snoop Dogg 2:34 Will do. I'm gonna start off light. I'm gonna start off with some fly weight division.

Joe Rogan 2:40 What is this stuff?

Snoop Dogg 2:41 This is just some fly weight to get me going, you know. I like watching the women fight.

Joe Rogan 2:45 And so, y- you roll it, y- you roll blunts with like... Do you take a part of Swisher Sweets? What do you?

Snoop Dogg 2:51 I used to be a s- Philly Blunt guy, then I used to be a Swisher Sweet guy, and now I'm a Backwood guy.

Joe Rogan 2:57 Backwoods?

Snoop Dogg 2:58 Yeah, Backwoods. One of the little homies turned me on. You know, this is a young man's thing but I hang with all of the youngsters and, you know, they be pushing it on me, "Unk, hit the Backwood, hit the Backwood." I'm like, "I ain't smoking that." And when I finally hit it, I just liked the way it made me feel. It was like, it was a relaxer rather than me, you know, going to sleep or wanting to be too excited. It was like the perfect, it was a perfect match for me, especially at that age I'm in.

Joe Rogan 3:20 Mm. And so, you just buy the cigar, take it apart, remove the tobacco. You do it all yourself?

Snoop Dogg 3:27 You just watched me put one together-

Joe Rogan 3:28 I did.

Snoop Dogg 3:28 ... in 37 seconds.

Joe Rogan 3:30 That's your thing?

Snoop Dogg 3:31 And you do know that? (laughs)

Joe Rogan 3:32 I do. I do. I learned how to smoke, uh, blunts from Charlie Murphy.

Snoop Dogg 3:37 Mm.

Joe Rogan 3:37 That's, that's when I first started smoking blunts.

Snoop Dogg 3:39 Charlie Murphy was a bad motherfucker, man.

Joe Rogan 3:40 He was a bad motherfucker. When I started smoking blunts with him, I was like, "Okay, now I get it."

Snoop Dogg 3:44 I smoked a blunt with him in 1993 on the set of my movie, Murder Was the Case.

Joe Rogan 3:49 Wow.

Snoop Dogg 3:50 That's the first movie I ever was in, and he was the bad guy. And it was so-

Joe Rogan 3:55 Really?

Snoop Dogg 3:55 Yeah. It was an 18-minute movie that I did on Death Row Records that went with my, uh, first album, Doggystyle. It was called Murder Was the Case, and Charlie was the bad guy. The shit was hard as fuck. And I loved him so much for just giving me off the intro. This is my first time acting and he was in my movie. And we, you know what I'm saying, hung out, smoked and chilled and became friends, and I just loved the fact that he wasn't like trying to big homie me.

Joe Rogan 4:20 Right.

Snoop Dogg 4:20 He was looking at me like, you know, "You a star now, you're gonna be a star later and I'ma treat you like... I'ma treat you now and I'ma treat you the same way later." And we always maintained that great relationship.

Joe Rogan 4:30 Charlie was a authentic human being.

Snoop Dogg 4:31 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 4:31 He really was. He was, uh, he's a rare guy who started doing f- standup after he was already famous.

Snoop Dogg 4:39 Mm.

Joe Rogan 4:39 That's a, that's a hard thing to do.

Snoop Dogg 4:41 Look, I got a story. Me and Charlie Murphy had a TV show for, uh, MTV. It was like a story about me as a kid and it was like cartoon. So we was on the (laughs) we was on a call with the MTV people and this is how he was talking to 'em. "You motherfucking cracker can't tell me how to run a motherfucking show. Fuck y'all. I'm the motherfucking writer of the show and if you motherfuckers don't like it, matter of fact, I'm off the phone."

Joe Rogan 5:05 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 5:05 And nigga just jumped off the call. It was my first time being on a meeting like that to hear somebody just be fucking real. That shit was encouraging, you know what I'm saying? It made me wanna do that, like to, to be real in meetings and not hold my tongue and sit back and let my people do all of the talking. When he drove that meeting and drove that conversation, that showed me that the best shit I can do is be me at all times.

Joe Rogan 5:26 Well Charlie was a man, you know.

Snoop Dogg 5:27 At all times.

Joe Rogan 5:28 He was a man. Like he was a, a martial artist. He was a legit martial artist, like I had some great conversations with him about martial arts and there was one time that it was me and Maurice Smith, who was the former UFC heavyweight champion, and a dude named Ivan Salivary, who was another top flight UFC guy. And Charlie Murphy was holding court and he was telling people about how they gotta respect the Chicago ridge hand.

Snoop Dogg 5:52 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 5:52 The specific type of ridge hand that Charlie was really good at and he, he was telling 'em and it's, it's a legit technique but it was just funny as shit seeing Charlie Murphy standing there-

Snoop Dogg 6:02 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 6:02 ... holding court. There's the picture of it right there. That's Charlie-

Snoop Dogg 6:07 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 6:07 ... and the guy right to his right shoulder, that's Maurice Smith who was a former UFC heavyweight champion and the guy across that got his hand in front of his mouth, that's Ivan Salivary.

Snoop Dogg 6:14 And he stuck ... He believing the story.

Joe Rogan 6:16 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 6:16 The way he got his hand in front of his mouth, that's like a teacher teaching right now.

Joe Rogan 6:20 Well he just, he was a powerful figure, you know.

Snoop Dogg 6:23 He was, man.

Joe Rogan 6:23 And when I found out that he was sick and that he died, it was... It didn't make sense, like, Charlie Murphy is-

Snoop Dogg 6:29 ... bulletproof. But he kept working through his sickness.

Joe Rogan 6:32 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 6:32 That's what I commend him for, that he was still showing up to sets-

Joe Rogan 6:36 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 6:37 ... being seen, being heard, leaving his legacy so that way we can continue to see him while he was gone.

Joe Rogan 6:41 Yeah. It's just-

Snoop Dogg 6:43 It's sad when we lose people like that, man.

Joe Rogan 6:45 Es- yeah. Especially a guy like that. You just don't think he's gonna get sick. Like, how did he get sick?

Snoop Dogg 6:50 Well, you know, it's all God's plan though, Joe. You know, we, we gotta be thankful for the time that we had with him, and we both got personal stories and personal relationships with him. So, that's all we can be thankful for is the time that we get with people while they're here.

Joe Rogan 7:02 (smacks lips) That's true. I mean, we only have a certain amount of time, no matter what. It seems like you got forever because you're in it right now, and it doesn't seem like it's gonna end. But it ends for all of us, and it's, it's hard to keep that in perspective. But if you could, you'd be better off.

Snoop Dogg 7:16 Yeah. That's what life is all about, living each day. You only die once so you should live every day.

Joe Rogan 7:22 Exactly.

Snoop Dogg 7:23 (exhales)

Joe Rogan 7:24 I wish I could dress like you.

Snoop Dogg 7:26 You can. Hold on.

Joe Rogan 7:27 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 7:27 I brought, I brought you something.

Joe Rogan 7:29 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 7:29 First of all, here's a, here's a Def Jam chain for you-

Joe Rogan 7:31 Oh, shit.

Snoop Dogg 7:31 ... 'cause you know I'm running things over at Def Jam now-

Joe Rogan 7:33 Thank you.

Snoop Dogg 7:33 ... and I wanted to make sure you was official like a referee with a whistle.

Joe Rogan 7:36 Thank you. Woo.

Snoop Dogg 7:36 You can't wear the chain without the Def Jam jacket.

Joe Rogan 7:39 Oh, shit.

Snoop Dogg 7:39 Oh yeah, Joe got a Def Jam jacket.

Joe Rogan 7:41 Oh, shit.

Joe Rogan 7:43 Don't hate everyone.

Snoop Dogg 7:44 And then I know, Joe, I know you a Snoop Dogg fan, so I gotta give you that Doggystyle, my first album.

Snoop Dogg 8:41 Yeah, all the time, but it always get dead from me. Like, I be like, "Huh?"

Joe Rogan 8:45 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 8:45 "Air Drop? Fuck that mean?" I'm looking in the air for the shit to drop. (clears throat) You know how to do it, Joe?

Joe Rogan 11:26 That was amazing. That might've been my favorite moment ever-

Snoop Dogg 11:28 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 11:28 ... on the podcast. That was amazing.

Snoop Dogg 11:31 We only smoke fire, Joe.

Joe Rogan 11:33 Oh my God.

Snoop Dogg 11:34 Yes, sir.

Joe Rogan 11:36 Thank God for you.

Snoop Dogg 11:37 You know what people don't know? Is that, like, when they see me doing all of this, like, calling fights and calling sports and doing all of this, I guess it's called analysm. Is that what it's called?

Joe Rogan 11:49 Anal- uh, yeah, analyst.

Snoop Dogg 11:50 Yeah, when I'm a analyst. They don't know that I got my start with a show called The Contender, which was the Dana White Show, which was a show where the fighters would come and they would fight to get a contract, so to speak. And one of the fighters that was on that show was Sugar Shane. And I see he came out and became a real good fighter, and I just think about how when I was on there with, uh, Urijah Faber and how he was only just getting my style together as far as how to talk when I'm watching a sporting event. They don't understand that I got my beginnings from the UFC world, man.Y'all blessed me. (smacks lips)

Joe Rogan 12:31 It was ... It was Sugar Shane.

Snoop Dogg 12:33 Yeah.

Joe Rogan 12:33 Uh, Sugar Sean rather, Sugar Sean O'Malley. (clears throat) Not Sugar Shane.

Snoop Dogg 12:36 Bad boy. Shh. Bad boy.

Joe Rogan 12:37 Uh, he's, he's fucking phenomenal. When you were doing that, that ca- didn't that come out of you doing commentary just for, like, YouTube videos and shit?

Snoop Dogg 12:44 Yeah, but the way Dana ... He, he produced it. You know what I'm saying? Like, I was-

Joe Rogan 12:50 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 12:50 ... just doing, like, freelance shit and he was like, "Nah, hold on. Come to Vegas. We gonna put you on the air, you and him." And then I was in there smoking like a motherfucker the first couple of fights. They was like, "Hold on. Y- you can't be i- on the same ... We gotta build you a room off for the sec-" (laughs) 'Cause of the fucking, the rules and regulations to fighting, the smoke gotta be in this section over here. So I was announcing, we had our little booth where we had to smoke off of the set and watch the fight-

Joe Rogan 13:14 That's hilarious.

Snoop Dogg 13:14 ... from, like, the booth. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 13:16 'Cause you could legitimately give someone a contact high.

Snoop Dogg 13:19 Oh, yeah. That's what they were saying.

Joe Rogan 13:20 Yeah, for sure.

Snoop Dogg 13:21 But I thought the fighters wouldn't, wouldn't like that.

Joe Rogan 13:23 (coughs)

Snoop Dogg 13:23 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 13:23 The fighters probably ... Some of them would. Some of them would. But yeah. You, uh, when you were doing it with Urijah Faber, that was when Sean O'Malley made his big ... That was, uh, one of his first big knockouts that people got a chance to see him, his style.

Snoop Dogg 13:38 It was so dope then.

Joe Rogan 13:39 You calling his fight, it was part of the fun of him sort of emerging-

Snoop Dogg 13:43 That's-

Joe Rogan 13:43 ... into the UFC.

Snoop Dogg 13:44 That gave me the, the bug-

Joe Rogan 13:45 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 13:45 ... to be like, "Fuck that. You can do-

Joe Rogan 13:47 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 13:47 ... this shit, dawg. Go ahead."

Joe Rogan 13:48 Yeah. No, anybody could do it, you know. If you, if you ever watch fights with a cool friend, it's fun.

Snoop Dogg 13:54 Mm-hmm. Always.

Joe Rogan 13:55 You know?

Snoop Dogg 13:55 Or watch it with your uncle.

Joe Rogan 13:56 Yeah. Like, your kind of commentary is what most people want to hear. They want to hear people talk shit and have fun.

Snoop Dogg 14:03 Right.

Joe Rogan 14:03 You know?

Snoop Dogg 14:04 Right.

Joe Rogan 14:04 They should have, like, a regular commentary and, like, a shit-talking commentary.

Snoop Dogg 14:07 Yeah, like they got the Spanish when you ... With s- with subtitles.

Joe Rogan 14:10 (laughs) Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 14:11 Fuck it, we going with the Snoop Dogg version.

Joe Rogan 14:12 Yeah, because that's ... It's, it's entertaining for people. It's like you're watching it with friends.

Snoop Dogg 14:18 I'm trying to get some Super Bowl action now.

Joe Rogan 14:20 Yeah?

Snoop Dogg 14:20 I really wanna ... Yeah, 'cause we performing at the Super Bowl, but I want some of that, that in the box. I wanna kinda-

Joe Rogan 14:25 You wanna do commentary for the Super Bowl?

Snoop Dogg 14:27 I need a little bit of that. Just a little bit.

Joe Rogan 14:28 (laughs) And you can do it.

Snoop Dogg 14:28 Just maybe a half a quarter or something.

Joe Rogan 14:30 Listen. You, you sparred ... I saw you spar with Daniel Seraphian.

Snoop Dogg 14:34 Yeah. Now that motherfucker right there was trying to kill me. I just told you-

Joe Rogan 14:37 (laughs) That dude's scary.

Snoop Dogg 14:37 So hold on, nigga. I'm just in this ... (laughs) You gonna flash back and think I'm some, some fighter you was fighting against.

Joe Rogan 14:43 (coughs) But, uh, I was telling everybody, "If Snoop is sparring with that guy," I go, "That is a legit guy. He's a legit UFC fighter."

Snoop Dogg 14:52 He used to work-

Joe Rogan 14:52 Seraphian's a beast.

Snoop Dogg 14:53 Man, let me tell you the shit he used to do with me, though, Joe. He used to make me get on my back and try to get him off of me. The fuck is this? And then I-

Joe Rogan 15:01 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 15:01 Then I, he got on his back-

Joe Rogan 15:02 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 15:02 ... and I couldn't get a fucking punch in. I'm like, "Man, this is no fair, man." But it was teaching me-

Joe Rogan 15:06 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 15:07 ... both sides of fighting.

Joe Rogan 15:08 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 15:09 On your back, on top, stand up-

Joe Rogan 15:11 But-

Snoop Dogg 15:11 ... all of the above.

Joe Rogan 15:12 But the fact that you're training with, like, these really legit guys, that to me was very interesting 'cause there's not a lot of people that are, like-

Snoop Dogg 15:21 That'll get in there with them?

Joe Rogan 15:22 Yeah. No, there's not a lot of people that are, like, prominent show business people that want to learn how to fight with a guy like Daniel Seraphian. And you're taking that chance to spar with him and you're filming it. That's, that's pretty wild, man.

Snoop Dogg 15:34 Hey, man, let me tell you. Wiz Khalifa put all that shit in me. Wiz Khalifa used to weigh about 140 pounds-

Joe Rogan 15:40 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 15:41 ... and I used to weigh about 160. And we used to be on tour taking our shirts off and shit, and I used to have way more muscles than him. We used to be doing our shit. All of a sudden, this motherfucker started working out. And then we went on tour. He was like, "Hey, man, let's run to the crowd." He doing all kind of athletic shit, then he took his shirt off. I'm like, "Fuck."

Joe Rogan 15:58 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 15:58 I looked at him and was like, "Damn, he bigger than me now. What the fuck is going on?" So I asked him. He's like, "Man, I'm working at Unbreakable. I'm in the gym every day." So me wanting to be, you know, just like he is, I'm, "Can I go in there?" Went, got me a membership, started working out, just training, lifting. And then the fighting element came to me. I was like, "I want to learn how to fight better." 'Cause I could fight, but I want to learn how to fight to protect myself. Not to just beat somebody up, but to be defensive in case somebody needs some help.

Joe Rogan 16:26 Did you ever do any martial arts before that?

Snoop Dogg 16:29 Only watched movies.

Joe Rogan 16:30 Really?

Snoop Dogg 16:31 Yep. You know as a kid, you watch movies and you practice those moves-

Joe Rogan 16:34 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 16:34 ... and you try shit? We was those kind of kids. We would jump off of roofs and jump off of mattresses-

Joe Rogan 16:39 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 16:40 ... and all kind of shit. We didn't give a fuck.

Joe Rogan 16:42 (laughs) A lot of kids must have learned from movies, right?

Snoop Dogg 16:45 That's all we had.

Joe Rogan 16:46 Just imitate, imitate people doing kicks in Bruce Lee movies and Chuck Norris movies.

Snoop Dogg 16:50 Joe, let me tell you this. When we was ... When we watch a movie and we leave to walk in, soon as the movie go off, a karate movie, we looking for somebody to fight.

Joe Rogan 16:58 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 16:58 And do karate moves on. (laughs) Not regular fighting, but-

Joe Rogan 17:02 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 17:02 ... motherfuckers stand out there like this doing all this karate shit.

Joe Rogan 17:06 When do you think that happened? I think it was, like, probably Bruce Lee introduced that.

Snoop Dogg 17:10 Bruce Lee, he, he was the fucking king.

Joe Rogan 17:12 Yeah, yeah.

Snoop Dogg 17:13 All his movies, we definitely wanted to imitate him.

Joe Rogan 17:15 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 17:15 And then the fucking Shaw Brothers, they had some good shit too. And then there was a couple of classics like Five Fingers of Death, Master of the Flying Guillotine. It's certain movies that just really hit in the hood that we really liked watching.

Joe Rogan 17:28 It's kinda crazy that one guy and one particular style of movie created, like, a whole way that people wanted to fight. They wanted to start kicking people.

Snoop Dogg 17:39 Right. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 17:39 Before that, it was, like, fisticuffs.

Snoop Dogg 17:41 Now you gotta watch his legs now.

Joe Rogan 17:43 Yeah, they, they're like one group of people figured it out.

Snoop Dogg 17:46 And Bruce Lee made sound effects a part of fighting as well.

Joe Rogan 17:49 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 17:50 Because you would never not do his move without saying, "Wa-da woo."

Joe Rogan 17:54 It's so, it's so attractive to people to fight that way. To, like, kick each other and shit.

Snoop Dogg 17:57 I remember I did that shit.

Joe Rogan 17:59 It's fun.

Snoop Dogg 17:59 I fought somebody who was doing all Bruce, Bruce Lee sounds and was getting my ass kicked.

Joe Rogan 18:03 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 18:03 I was trying to figure out, "Why the fuck this shit ain't working for me?" (laughs)

Joe Rogan 18:07 (gasps) That guy influenced a whole culture.

Snoop Dogg 18:10 I got a big ass life, life-sized statue of Bruce Lee at the front door of my building when you walk in-

Joe Rogan 18:17 Really?

Snoop Dogg 18:17 ... with his shirt off with the three scratches on his chest like this in, in rare form.

Joe Rogan 18:22 Oh.

Snoop Dogg 18:22 Oh yeah, I'm a die-hard.

Joe Rogan 18:25 Yeah, he's the ... Absolutely the original reason why I got interested in martial arts. I lived in an apartment building in Newark, New Jersey.

Snoop Dogg 18:32 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 18:33 And one of the, uh, kids that lived, uh, downstairs from me, he, they, they had, uh, they had gotten into Bruce Lee and they were telling me about Bruce Lee. And then we watched a Bruce Lee movie over at his house, and I was like, "Holy shit."

Snoop Dogg 18:45 Wasn't that shit like when you ... Star Wars, no disrespect. (clears throat) When Bruce Lee hit the motherfucking silver screen-

Joe Rogan 18:52 (exhales)

Snoop Dogg 18:52 ... fuck everything.

Joe Rogan 18:54 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 18:54 Right?

Joe Rogan 18:55 It was-

Snoop Dogg 18:55 As a kid-

Joe Rogan 18:55 ... wild. It was wild.

Snoop Dogg 18:57 Didn't he make you feel like you could do it?

Joe Rogan 18:59 Every, like, everybody could do it if you could just learn what he knows.

Snoop Dogg 19:01 And the way he was calm, the way he-

Joe Rogan 19:03 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 19:04 ... talked and just, don't you see a lot of Snoop Dogg in Bruce Lee and Bruce Lee in Snoop Dogg, with the calmness and the "Be water," and-

Joe Rogan 19:11 Yes.

Snoop Dogg 19:11 ... just always-

Joe Rogan 19:13 Be water.

Snoop Dogg 19:14 Yes.

Joe Rogan 19:15 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 19:16 Yes. I am water. Awkwafina. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 19:24 (laughs) He made kicking people exciting.

Snoop Dogg 19:28 I'm telling you-

Joe Rogan 19:28 It's kinda wild.

Snoop Dogg 19:29 Kicking wasn't cool in the '70s till Bruce Lee made it official. Then it was a part of your fight style. You, you, even the sweep kick was a... You would put your hands up and then you would sweep him-

Joe Rogan 19:38 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 19:38 ... off his feet. That was like, like that move was real famous. A lot of people got caught slipping like that.

Joe Rogan 19:43 You know what's crazy is like the stuff he did in his movies was not the stuff that he would, uh, he would tell you to do for fighting.

Snoop Dogg 19:50 Right.

Joe Rogan 19:51 He wrote a whole book, Jeet Kune Do.

Snoop Dogg 19:53 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 19:54 He wro- wrote this whole book of, uh, like all of his-

Snoop Dogg 19:57 Teachings?

Joe Rogan 19:57 ... stuff that he had learned from all these different styles, putting them all together and trying to figure out what's the most useful. But he wouldn't have done all that crazy, fancy shit. He would've-

Snoop Dogg 20:07 No.

Joe Rogan 20:07 ... been kicking your knees and kicking your legs and-

Snoop Dogg 20:09 But I think that's why they didn't like him, because he was trying to combine-

Joe Rogan 20:12 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 20:13 ... all of the styles and the teachings that he knew, and then he was presenting those styles to people outside of the martial arts world. But they should be thanking him because the... It would've been just a cult classic as opposed to it being internationally loved and respected. Now, martial arts has grown into a point to where we got the UFC, we got kickboxing, we got there, certain things that-

Joe Rogan 20:33 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 20:33 ... you know, people can, you know, prosper from it and, and really get off their talents.

Joe Rogan 20:37 But when we first started doing it, you, you had to stick to the style that you, that you were practicing. Like, you couldn't leave your style.

Snoop Dogg 20:45 Right.

Joe Rogan 20:45 Like, if you were a TaeKwonDo guy and then you wanted to learn Muay Thai, they, someone would be upset at you. They'd be like, "You don't have to go over there and learn that." Like, "That's, that's not better than what we do." And they-

Snoop Dogg 20:55 But when I first watched, I fell in love with, with Royce Gracie.

Joe Rogan 20:58 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 20:58 This motherfucker used to come out with a robe on-

Joe Rogan 21:01 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 21:02 ... and lay down-

Joe Rogan 21:03 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 21:03 ... and kick your ass. I'm trying to figure out how the fuck he got a... If y'all don't grab this motherfucker by his robe and choke his ass out-

Joe Rogan 21:11 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 21:11 ... and pull the bottom of his robe up and take his, his, uh, his little, uh, string around his rope and tie his ass up with it, he... I used to just watch him like, "This motherfucker is amazing." Then I met him, and when I met him, I'm like, "Damn, he's so calm and relaxed." I guess when you know you can fuck a motherfucker up-

Joe Rogan 21:30 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 21:31 (laughs) ... you just sit back and just, just enjoy life.

Joe Rogan 21:34 Yeah. O- o- I think that robe was a trick in some ways. It was really smart. Because by wearing the kimono, wearing the, the, uh, Jujitsu gi-

Snoop Dogg 21:44 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 21:44 ... he, he made people grab him.

Snoop Dogg 21:46 Always they were grabbing them-

Joe Rogan 21:47 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 21:47 ... and that, and that brought them to him, right?

Joe Rogan 21:49 Exactly.

Snoop Dogg 21:50 And that's, and his style-

Joe Rogan 21:51 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 21:51 ... you wanna be up close and tight-

Joe Rogan 21:53 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 21:53 ... in there.

Joe Rogan 21:54 So, what, he would just smother these guys, and they would, they would grab onto it and they would be in his trap and then boom, he would be on top of him like a spider, just strangling people.

Snoop Dogg 22:01 'Cause him and Shamrock was fucking amazing.

Joe Rogan 22:04 Yeah. Well, him and everybody was amazing. I mean, he was the guy that introduced everybody to the idea that you could be a smaller person with superior technique and win a, a huge, whole, no holds barred competition with giant people.

Snoop Dogg 22:18 So, in my, in my book, he's top five UFC all time great.

Joe Rogan 22:24 Yeah. You, it's-

Snoop Dogg 22:25 Hands fucking down.

Joe Rogan 22:26 It's hard to measure how important he was. He was so-

Snoop Dogg 22:30 What?

Joe Rogan 22:30 ... important.

Snoop Dogg 22:31 He made us-

Joe Rogan 22:32 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 22:32 ... who we are.

Joe Rogan 22:33 He... It's, so it's hard to deli- like what he, what he did by showing people that you could win with technique, not with being big, not with being strong, but for knowing something that the other people don't know, changed what a martial art be- was. All of a sudden, martial art became interesting to really intelligent people.

Snoop Dogg 22:50 Right.

Joe Rogan 22:50 They wanted to figure out, like, how could someone who's more technical get over and overpower someone who's much bigger and stronger than them? But they can, like, consistently.

Snoop Dogg 22:59 Right.

Joe Rogan 23:00 And Royce Gracie showed the whole world that. He's, like, probably the most important martial arts figure ever.

Snoop Dogg 23:06 I would've loved-

Joe Rogan 23:06 Him and Bruce Lee.

Snoop Dogg 23:07 I would've loved to seen his father fight.

Joe Rogan 23:10 Oh my god.

Snoop Dogg 23:10 'Cause just the way his, his old man used to come out there with him with the sweatsuit on, like-

Joe Rogan 23:14 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 23:15 ... you just knew he was just the shit. Like-

Joe Rogan 23:16 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 23:16 ... "If this my son, I wish a motherfucker would." (laughs)

Joe Rogan 23:21 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 23:21 "Watch out, Royce, let me get this motherfucker."

Joe Rogan 23:23 (laughs) Yeah, when he would come out with his dad. Oh, shit.

Snoop Dogg 23:25 That was so gangster to me. Like-

Joe Rogan 23:27 Very gangster.

Snoop Dogg 23:28 ... I just, those moments I remember about UFC that stained my brain and was like-

Joe Rogan 23:31 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 23:31 ... "This is a brand that's here forever." When you seen that man come out there with his father and then y'all start running down the tradition of what his father meant to B- Brazilian Jujitsu and how they are the family that you're gonna learn about and know about sooner or later.

Joe Rogan 23:46 They're the greatest family in the history of martial arts, and there's not even a close second.

Snoop Dogg 23:50 Okay. Hands down. There it is there.

Joe Rogan 23:52 They're the greatest family. There's no other family that's had an impact like they have.

Snoop Dogg 23:57 So, was Royce the best Gracie?

Joe Rogan 23:59 No, his brother Rickson was.

Snoop Dogg 24:00 What?

Joe Rogan 24:01 Yeah. His brother hi- and everybody says it. He says it too. His brother Rickson's a legend. He's been on the podcast a few times.

Snoop Dogg 24:08 This is before UFC?

Joe Rogan 24:10 This was, like, during the UFC but he was fighting in Japan and just his Jujitsu, like, was universally regarded as being the best by everybody.

Snoop Dogg 24:19 Is he Royce big brother?

Joe Rogan 24:21 Yes.

Snoop Dogg 24:21 Okay. There it is there.

Joe Rogan 24:22 Yes.

Snoop Dogg 24:23 It makes sense.

Joe Rogan 24:23 Royce is big and then Rorion's his other brother, and Rorion's, uh, elite. The- they're all assassins. Their sons are assassins.

Snoop Dogg 24:30 I love it.

Joe Rogan 24:30 Every, like, you can't be a Gracie son and not be an assassin. (laughs) They're all assassins.

Snoop Dogg 24:35 Which, which Gracie would be in the weight class of my man who used to wear the white wig?

Joe Rogan 24:42 Oh, uh, Khabib?

Snoop Dogg 24:44 That motherfucker right there.

Joe Rogan 24:45 Khabib Nurmagomedov? (exhales) Khabib's a piece of-

Snoop Dogg 24:46 Any his, any his weight class?

Joe Rogan 24:48 Uh, Royler was close to his weight class, but Royler was a little smaller. Royler was like 145 and he's like one- he's fighting at 155.But Hoyler was an elite grappler too. Hoyler won, like, multiple world championships. Like, they w- they were, the whole family, Roger Gracie-

Snoop Dogg 25:06 Phew.

Joe Rogan 25:06 ... I mean, Renzo Gracie, J- my God, what a family.

Snoop Dogg 25:10 So Khabib, Khabib even if he'd had beat one, he would have to f- another one would have been waiting around the corner, waiting on his ass. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 25:15 It would have been amazing to see Khabib in his prime versus a guy like Rickson in his prime.

Snoop Dogg 25:20 Yes.

Joe Rogan 25:20 Just, just see them grapple. It'd be fascinating.

Snoop Dogg 25:23 So Khabib's undefeated?

Joe Rogan 25:24 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Khabib retired undefeated.

Snoop Dogg 25:27 That's fucking crazy.

Joe Rogan 25:28 Not only is not, not just defeated, but never really in a close fight. There was no real close fights.

Snoop Dogg 25:34 He took on everybody too.

Joe Rogan 25:35 He took on everybody.

Snoop Dogg 25:35 He didn't, he didn't run from no fades. He, he took on everybody.

Joe Rogan 25:38 He had good fights. He had good fights where people put up struggle. But eventually, he gets 'em all. He gets 'em all.

Snoop Dogg 25:45 Phew. So is he top five?

Joe Rogan 25:47 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Khabib is, uh, in my opinion, greatest lightweight of all time. The other argument is BJ Penn in his prime. BJ Penn in his prime was fantastic. He was so good.

Snoop Dogg 26:00 He was fast. He'd get up on you.

Joe Rogan 26:01 Oh, my God.

Snoop Dogg 26:02 Stand up with you.

Joe Rogan 26:02 BJ Penn, when he was like ... But if you, if you go back and watch like peak BJ Penn, when he w- like he was just- he had phenomenal power. He was ruthlessly aggressive. He had great jujitsu. Everybody was scared of BJ for a while.

Snoop Dogg 26:19 Right.

Joe Rogan 26:19 He would fight anybody.

Snoop Dogg 26:20 He took it... Who did, who did he take it from? He took it from somebody.

Joe Rogan 26:23 Well, he beat Matt Hughes.

Snoop Dogg 26:24 He wasn't supposed to.

Joe Rogan 26:25 He beat Matt Hughes in his prime.

Snoop Dogg 26:27 Right.

Joe Rogan 26:27 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 26:27 'Cause Matt was the champ, right?

Joe Rogan 26:29 And he strangled him.

Snoop Dogg 26:30 He rocked him. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 26:30 Yeah. Yeah. And he strangled him.

Snoop Dogg 26:32 And then he held onto him for a while.

Joe Rogan 26:34 Yeah. Yeah. They, they had some wars, man. Yeah. He was a, he was an elite grappler too, just really, really good. And so it wasn't just his standup striking, it was his ground game, but it was also that he would fight anybody.

Snoop Dogg 26:50 Yeah. He was gangster, but he would get in there and mix it up. He was like a crowd favorite.

Joe Rogan 26:53 Yeah. He lost to Georges St-Pierre. Georges St-Pierre was just-

Snoop Dogg 26:57 GSP.

Joe Rogan 26:58 ... bigger and bi- bigger and stronger and, and better, and he, he kind of beat him up. But it was a much d- like, the difference in size is pretty evident, and it just wasn't a good match-up for BJ. But that's just 'cause Georges St-Pierre in his prime was the best of the best.

Snoop Dogg 27:15 Right. One thing about the UFC, that torch is definitely gonna get passed. And when it get passed, it's all about who can hold onto it and hold it the longest, 'cause there's always somebody coming to get your ass.

Joe Rogan 27:26 Always come. Always. Always. There's some guys that can hold it off until they can retire. But, you know, if you just stay in it long enough, eventually someone coming up is going to get you. This is-

Snoop Dogg 27:39 That's in everything, though. That's even in the music industry. It's always been like that. Like, it's a young man's game. That's why I'm surprised I'm still in it.

Joe Rogan 27:47 Well, again, you're in it because you can authentically be you and people love you. You're like one of the most universally loved people. But it's because of what you put out.

Snoop Dogg 27:56 Right.

Joe Rogan 27:56 You, that's what you put out there. You put out love, and people love you back.

Snoop Dogg 28:00 Hey, man. Put it in the air one time. A little bud for the love, a little love for the bud. Oh, I gotta say it the right way, though. You know how I do it. Yes, sir.

Joe Rogan 28:10 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 28:10 Big Snoop Dogg smoking live on the air. The Joe Rogan Experience, Austin, Texas or bust. You bitch, you. (laughs) You ain't never had a guest like that, that comes-

Joe Rogan 28:23 No.

Snoop Dogg 28:23 ... with his own motherfucking microphone. It's just, just together, man. I need some alcohol, Joe.

Joe Rogan 28:28 It's next level.

Snoop Dogg 28:29 Can I get drunk on your show?

Joe Rogan 28:29 Yeah. For sure.

Snoop Dogg 28:30 You got some clear? All that shit over there is brown like me. I need some clear.

Joe Rogan 28:33 What do you need? What kind do you like?

Snoop Dogg 28:35 I like vodka.

Joe Rogan 28:36 Do we have vodka, Jamie?

Narrator 28:38 We have to ... We have to-

Snoop Dogg 28:39 What ... No. What you, what you got here? I'll do what you got. Fuck it. Let's break the rules.

Narrator 28:42 Cool.

Joe Rogan 28:42 Mostly we have whiskey.

Snoop Dogg 28:44 Oh, shit.

Narrator 28:44 Yeah. We have rye still stuff too-

Snoop Dogg 28:46 Oh, shit. You, you fucked up.

Narrator 28:46 ... which is dangerous.

Joe Rogan 28:47 What's that?

Narrator 28:47 That rye still is clear.

Snoop Dogg 28:49 It is?

Joe Rogan 28:49 Oh, that stuff is ruthless, though.

Narrator 28:50 Yeah. I wouldn't want to give that to you.

Snoop Dogg 28:52 Oh, thanks.

Narrator 28:52 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 28:52 Appreciate you.

Joe Rogan 28:54 It's ruthless. It's like-

Snoop Dogg 28:55 Thank you.

Joe Rogan 28:55 It's like turpentine.

Snoop Dogg 28:57 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 28:57 You don't like that kind of shit, right?

Snoop Dogg 28:59 Hell nah.

Joe Rogan 28:59 You like vodka, right?

Snoop Dogg 29:00 I'm on some cool shit, some player shit, you know what I'm talking about? He said some shit over there that sound like it's gonna turn me inside out. What's that? Who was on that bottle?

Narrator 29:09 There's honey shine too. I don't know if you-

Snoop Dogg 29:11 Let me get some honey shine.

Joe Rogan 29:11 What is that? I don't even know what that is. Bring that over there.

Snoop Dogg 29:14 It look like my face on there. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 29:17 (laughs)

Narrator 29:19 Be right back.

Joe Rogan 29:19 Honey shine.

Snoop Dogg 29:21 Motherfuckers making a bottle of Snoop Dogg?

Joe Rogan 29:24 I don't know what this is.

Snoop Dogg 29:25 Maybe some moonshine. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 29:28 (coughs)

Snoop Dogg 29:28 Some moonshine with a dab of honey, huh?

Joe Rogan 29:31 I don't know. You want to try it?

Snoop Dogg 29:32 Yeah. Let me get lit.

Joe Rogan 29:34 Let's see what's in there.

Snoop Dogg 29:34 Let me get lit, lit with you one time, Joe. Here we go.

Joe Rogan 29:37 I don't know what this is.

Snoop Dogg 29:38 Me neither, but here's a toast to the boogie, baby. (glasses clinking) Damn.

Joe Rogan 29:40 Salute, sir.

Snoop Dogg 29:41 Blessings.

Joe Rogan 29:45 Whoa.

Snoop Dogg 29:45 That shit is strong as a motherfucker. Oh, blblblblbl.

Joe Rogan 29:49 I think it's moonshine.

Snoop Dogg 29:50 Shit. This must be some moonshine-

Joe Rogan 29:52 Oof.

Snoop Dogg 29:52 ... out the motherfucking Duke boys truck.

Joe Rogan 29:54 (exhales) Ooh.

Snoop Dogg 29:55 Enus must have made this shit. Damn.

Joe Rogan 29:57 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 29:57 Shit.

Joe Rogan 29:59 (sighs)

Snoop Dogg 29:59 (smacks lips) Ah, I got you.

Joe Rogan 30:03 Oh.

Snoop Dogg 30:04 (smacks lips) Shit.

Joe Rogan 30:04 Moonshine is a thing now. You can buy moonshine, which is hilarious.

Snoop Dogg 30:08 You can buy it for real? I mean, they used to have to bootleg it, right?

Joe Rogan 30:10 I mean, that's how the Kennedys made their money.

Snoop Dogg 30:12 For real?

Joe Rogan 30:13 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 30:13 Oh, you mean, their daddy and them, the pops.

Joe Rogan 30:14 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 30:15 Pop Kennedy.

Joe Rogan 30:16 The pops. A lot of people did. That's, you know, that's where NASCAR came from.

Narrator 30:20 NASCAR, yep.

Snoop Dogg 30:20 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 30:22 All right.

Snoop Dogg 30:22 It was created off of that?

Joe Rogan 30:23 Yeah. What do we got here? We got vodka.

Narrator 30:26 Both vodka.

Joe Rogan 30:26 Both vodka. Here we go.

Snoop Dogg 30:28 Well, this shit you just gave me here is a motherfucker. That shit's-

Joe Rogan 30:30 You like it?

Snoop Dogg 30:30 ... sitting in my chest like heat- a heater. I love it.

Joe Rogan 30:33 You want some more of that?

Snoop Dogg 30:34 I'm gonna do 'em both.

Joe Rogan 30:35 All right.

Snoop Dogg 30:36 And people know this watching this shit that I don't drink, but I'm with Joe Rogan, so fuck y'all.

Joe Rogan 30:40 Ah.

Snoop Dogg 30:45 (laughs) Mm. Mm. Shit. Felt like I poured a whole bottle of alcohol in my chest.

Joe Rogan 30:52 What do you usually drink?

Snoop Dogg 30:54 I drink Indigo gin. I drink (smacks lips) 19 Crimes wine or rose. You know, I'm a player, Joe. I drink that shit that's cool. This kind of shit when I'm with the boys and we want to act a fool-But normally, I'm on some player relaxed shit, making sure I'm in control. 'Cause that brown ... Brown and brown don't mix.

Joe Rogan 31:14 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 31:15 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 31:15 Are you involved with that 19 Crimes wine? Is that something you're doing?

Snoop Dogg 31:19 Yeah, yeah. You know, you know the plug was plugged. You already know that.

Joe Rogan 31:20 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 31:21 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 31:21 Well, no, it's good shit, man. I buy it.

Snoop Dogg 31:23 You do?

Joe Rogan 31:23 Yes.

Snoop Dogg 31:24 You won't never-

Joe Rogan 31:24 Yes.

Snoop Dogg 31:24 ... have to buy it again.

Joe Rogan 31:25 Well, thank you.

Snoop Dogg 31:26 Yeah, we gonna s-

Joe Rogan 31:27 It's very good.

Snoop Dogg 31:27 ... ship a gang of that shit up here.

Joe Rogan 31:28 Thank you. It's very good.

Snoop Dogg 31:30 Hmm.

Joe Rogan 31:30 I bought it before.

Snoop Dogg 31:31 (laughs) Yeah. You know me, Joe. I'm just trying to diversify my portfolio, you know-

Joe Rogan 31:35 I like it.

Snoop Dogg 31:35 ... because I felt like, you know, early in my career, when I was making songs like Gin and Juice, I feel like Tanqueray and Seagram's have really made millions and millions of dollars off of me without me knowing what I was doing as far as-

Joe Rogan 31:47 Right.

Snoop Dogg 31:47 ... promoting their brands. So once I learned the system and figured out that, wow, you could become a marketing and a brand ambassador, and you could also get some equity, or even just create your own alcohol brand.

Joe Rogan 31:58 Yeah, people blew up brands for nothing. They blew up brands and just, you know-

Snoop Dogg 32:02 We didn't know no better. Whether it was Gucci-

Joe Rogan 32:04 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 32:04 ... whether it was Nike, Converse, whatever it was, we did it out of the love of the brand and then the brand didn't understand that (clears throat) we were promoting for them, so they should've just naturally said, "Hey, here's some money. Be a brand ambassador." When we would come to some of these brands, they would say, "We don't need you; you're promoting us anyway."

Joe Rogan 32:23 Yeah. Yeah. It's a w- weird thing to try to realize.

Snoop Dogg 32:31 When it comes to business-

Joe Rogan 32:32 'Cause... Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 32:32 ... it's called, it's called show business, Joe. So initially, when you get in the industry, you, you're about the show and the business takes a while to catch up. But somebody like me that, you know, had to learn the hard way, I had to learn the show and the business fast. That's why it's called show business. When you learn them both, then you'll be where you supposed to be.

Joe Rogan 32:49 When, when did everybody figure that out with brands and stuff, though? Whe- when did people figure out that it's better to just make your own brand and-

Snoop Dogg 32:56 Probably like-

Joe Rogan 32:57 ... promote your own brand?

Snoop Dogg 32:58 Probably when Master P had No Limit Records, because No Limit Records was the perfect example of branding your own artist, branding your own merchandise, your own movies-

Joe Rogan 33:06 Mm-hmm.

Snoop Dogg 33:06 ... your own shoes, your own tater chips. Master P branded any and everything that he wanted to and it was all up under him, and he showed people how to be independent and create your own and not have to always go to the system and, you know, play on a field, but be an actual owner and a real, you know, decision maker.

Joe Rogan 33:26 The, the business of show business, it's, it's very hard sometimes for artists to think about shit like that. You just want to be free and have fun and talk shit. But then you realize like, oh, you're helping another organization for no reason.

Snoop Dogg 33:40 But see, that's not what they teach. They don't teach financial literacy. They don't, they don't teach us anything that could help us on a business, you know, scale, and that's from athletics to entertainment. You know, take for example these college football players and basketball players. They don't teach them how to handle millions of dollars, so when they do get that first contract and they blow their money or do something crazy with their money, it's not their fault. It's the system's fault for not teaching because if you're gonna, if you're gonna prepare someone to go to a professional field, the first thing you do is teach them financial literacy and how to, you know, maintain that, not just the ability to be skillful and make money for the brand, but be a part of being in the business so you can make money for yourself 'cause you're branding the brand.

Joe Rogan 34:22 Do they have any classes on like how to be a professional football player and manage your money? Do they have any class- I mean, if you would think that they... If they have football at a university and it's big for the university, shouldn't they have cla- Do they have classes?

Snoop Dogg 34:38 They probably do.

Joe Rogan 34:39 Where they teach the kids what to do if you start making money?

Snoop Dogg 34:42 I think they do, Joe, but I just don't think it's... The awareness of it is actually being promoted or pushed like it should be. They pushing more of the get on the field, be a star, get to the NFL, get to the NBA as opposed to get in a class, learn what's gonna happen with this money so in case you do become successful, or even after your career is over, you should have a business plan for life after ball.

Joe Rogan 35:04 Yeah. It's, uh, it's hard for people to think about that, like when it's gonna end.

Snoop Dogg 35:12 Imagine when these... For example, tr- try a UFC fighter, someone who wins on The Contender and he gets a contract for three fights, then he gets another three fights and now he's got $20, $30 million and then two years later, he has zero.

Joe Rogan 35:28 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 35:28 'Cause he didn't know how to position it. Like look at how Conor McGregor took his UFC shit and started branding and making money here and there and there and there and there and there, like but he's probably like one of the only ones. You don't see a lot, you know what I'm saying? It's like Tom Brady. He's a one-of-one. There's only one-of-ones. LeBron James, he's a one-of-one. But that creates an atmosphere to where some can follow. You probably won't be as high as him, but you'll be in the same room.

Joe Rogan 35:57 Yeah. Those rare humans like that, those one-of-ones.

Snoop Dogg 36:05 Yeah.

Joe Rogan 36:05 Like everybody's like, "Why?" You know, when you see a Conor McGregor, like how the fuck is he so much more interesting? Like what's going on? Like what's going on when someone just blows up and you just want to see them fight more than anything? Like this, uh... Do you know who Khamzat Chimaev is?

Snoop Dogg 36:20 Yes.

Joe Rogan 36:20 That's, that's another guy that everybody's like, "I can't wait to see that motherfucker fight again. Can he fight again tomorrow?"

Snoop Dogg 36:26 I want to see... I want to see him fight too, Joe.

Joe Rogan 36:27 Can he fight tomorrow?

Snoop Dogg 36:28 I fucking want to see him too. I don't know why, but I do want to see him fight.

Joe Rogan 36:31 (sighs) He's got it. Whatever that thing is, he's got it.

Snoop Dogg 36:34 It's that interest to, to-

Joe Rogan 36:35 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 36:35 ... want to learn more about him because he's, he's entertainment.

Joe Rogan 36:38 Yeah. When he's like, "I killed them all-"

Snoop Dogg 36:41 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 36:41 ... after his last fight. He goes, "Bring them to me."

Snoop Dogg 36:44 I fucking love him.

Joe Rogan 36:44 "I killed them all." I'm like, "Whoa."

Snoop Dogg 36:45 I'm like this motherfucker sound like he's in Gladiators and shit.

Joe Rogan 36:48 Dude, he's real.

Snoop Dogg 36:49 Yeah.

Joe Rogan 36:50 That's really him too.

Snoop Dogg 36:51 But see, that... Like I say, the best thing you could do is you.

Joe Rogan 36:54 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 36:55 He's having fun doing him right now and we-

Joe Rogan 36:57 (sighs)

Snoop Dogg 36:57 ... and we, and we're locked in because we don't see too many people doing him but him.

Joe Rogan 37:00 Snoop, the word is he's even better than you've seen.

Snoop Dogg 37:03 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 37:04 The, the word is by people who train with him, they're like, "Dude, he is a fucking freak of nature. He's a freak of nature. He's really smart. He knows what to do. He's got sick timing. He's just like he's got a, a, a super genius fight mindset."Like, you watch him fight, he doesn't make any mistakes. He's had... I, I, I think he's had three or four fights in the UFC. He's only been hit twice.

Snoop Dogg 37:27 He's that defensive?

Joe Rogan 37:28 He, he's just a swarm.

Snoop Dogg 37:30 Wow.

Joe Rogan 37:30 He's just a swarm.

Snoop Dogg 37:31 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 37:32 One guy he knocked out with one punch in the first round. These other guys, he just gets a hold of and smashes 'em. It's wild.

Snoop Dogg 37:39 And there's nothing you can do when he get his hands on you?

Joe Rogan 37:41 Y- it's wild. And everybody can sense it. So, he's got that thing about him. And he's got that thing about him just purely from his talent. Conor has that thing about him because of his talent and his personality.

Snoop Dogg 37:51 Right, right. And his conversation, like...

Joe Rogan 37:54 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 37:54 Just when you hear him talk, just to hear somebody from that country talk, that shit just sounds fucking crazy, especially when they talking that shit.

Joe Rogan 38:03 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 38:03 Like, you know, that, "I'll fucking take his fucking head off and fucking break his fucking-"

Joe Rogan 38:07 "This fucking bullocks."

Snoop Dogg 38:08 Yeah. Like, that shit just sound like a fucking movie to me, one of them motherfucking-

Joe Rogan 38:12 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 38:12 ... uh, Guy Ritchie movies. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 38:15 Exactly. Yeah. Angry British men.

Snoop Dogg 38:18 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 38:18 The, they're the best-sounding angry, angriest people.

Snoop Dogg 38:21 Yes. Fuck, yes.

Joe Rogan 38:21 (laughs) The best-sounding angry people, for sure.

Snoop Dogg 38:23 Conor's gonna give you a sound bite. You can believe that.

Joe Rogan 38:26 That's hilarious. So true. I mean, and that shit-talking just makes it so much more interesting when it actually comes to the fight.

Snoop Dogg 38:34 But that's what we love about sports is that you could talk shit as a fan and as a, as a person that's actually in the middle of the situation.

Joe Rogan 38:44 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 38:44 And that's what we love about this shit that we do is that we could talk shit and back it up. And when the fight is over with, you know, it is what it is. We gotta move on. 'Cause I like when somebody talking shit, and then they do the press conference, they do all that pushing and all that shit, then they get in the fight, 20 minutes later, and he got his ass kicked.

Joe Rogan 39:03 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 39:03 And then you gotta interview him. He'd be like, "Well, you know, I, I respect him now. You know? I, I got respect for him now." (laughs) I love that, when somebody earns their respect.

Joe Rogan 39:13 Do you like doing that thing for, uh, Triller? Do you like, uh, doing those, uh, fight cards and fucking around?

Snoop Dogg 39:19 You know what I like? I like being in front of a live fight, talking that shit.

Joe Rogan 39:26 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 39:26 And I don't have to fight. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 39:29 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 39:29 I like that part, you know, 'cause normally, you know, in that environment, you'd be feeling like, "Man, let me go help the motherfucker that's losing." But I'd be like, "Fuck the motherfucker that's losing. That's what your ass get for coming in there looking like that."

Joe Rogan 39:38 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 39:40 That's like a, um, like we were saying earlier, like, just regular people who watch sports, you get a chance to have a regular person, you know, give it to you the way that you would wanna hear it. And the way you're probably listen- the way you're probably watching it at home is the way I'm giving it to you when I'm, when I'm doing what I'm doing.

Joe Rogan 39:59 Yeah. You're, you're doing it like you would do it if we were hanging out. That's what people, people like. They like that.

Snoop Dogg 40:05 Right.

Joe Rogan 40:06 You know? When I'm doing the UFC, I have to be very professional. That's what I'm doing. Um, it's a more professional thing. But sometimes we'll do these fight companions where we just get high and get drunk and watch the fights and talk shit.

Snoop Dogg 40:17 But when you with DC, y'all different.

Joe Rogan 40:19 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 40:19 Y- y'all break the rules. Y'all be on some other shit.

Joe Rogan 40:21 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 40:22 I love when you with him 'cause if somebody get knocked out, you two motherfuckers is jumping up, falling out of the odd chair, or hitting each other-

Joe Rogan 40:28 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 40:28 ... upside the head or something.

Joe Rogan 40:30 Tha- he is the nicest guy on Earth. He's one of the nicest people I've ever met.

Snoop Dogg 40:35 And he trans- he transformed into a fucking great announcer, too.

Joe Rogan 40:38 Amazing.

Snoop Dogg 40:38 He's the shit.

Joe Rogan 40:39 Amazing announcer.

Snoop Dogg 40:40 I fuck with him.

Joe Rogan 40:41 Amazing.

Snoop Dogg 40:41 I fuck with him. He did that.

Joe Rogan 40:41 But he's also fun. He's, like, fun. Like, he had this little argument with Kamaru Usman, it was hilarious, where he was talking about whether or not, uh, Colby Covington took K- Kamaru down officially, 'cause he was saying it's a takedown. He's a wrestling expert.

Snoop Dogg 40:56 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 40:56 He was a two-time Olympian.

Snoop Dogg 40:58 So, he knows.

Joe Rogan 40:58 He's like, "That's a takedown." And then so him and Kamaru were talking, and Kamaru's like, "Well, you know, I, I guess it's, uh, they just judged it by how much control. He didn't establish control." And DC's like, "Two! Two points!"

Snoop Dogg 41:12 Wow.

Joe Rogan 41:12 Like, "That's a takedown."

Snoop Dogg 41:13 Oh, he's giving him wrestling points.

Joe Rogan 41:14 He's just going, "Two? That was a takedown. Two points."

Snoop Dogg 41:17 Wrestling points.

Joe Rogan 41:17 But he's f- he's so lovable. So me and, me and him do commentary, it's like, you know, hanging out.

Snoop Dogg 41:24 And it's informative, too, because-

Joe Rogan 41:25 Oh, man.

Snoop Dogg 41:26 ... the way you guys inform us on certain shit in the UFC world, you make it fun to listen to. It's not too complex. Like, a lot of times when you watch sports, they using big ass words and you don't know what the fuck they talking about. Y'all make that shit easy to understand. Easy.

Joe Rogan 41:41 Well, DC will break it down so the fighters can actually learn from-

Snoop Dogg 41:45 Yes.

Joe Rogan 41:45 ... like, uh, if they're in this position next time, what are they doing wrong?

Snoop Dogg 41:48 Right.

Joe Rogan 41:49 Like, he, he's giving points. He's like, "He's gotta, he shoulda had his head on the left side. He should've been driving forward, and that's why he got stuck there." Like, he's, like, explaining as it's happening.

Snoop Dogg 41:57 And I like when it's happening how both of you guys are talking to the fighter without him hearing you, telling him what he should be doing and how he got in that move, and how he need to get his ass outta that move, and, "He's going, he should have his legs around his waist. He should be putting, he should be trying..." And all of a sudden, the shit happen, it'll be like, "Damn, did y'all predict this shit?"

Joe Rogan 42:18 No, it's like there's certain m- moves in jiu-jitsu where you know a h- a guy has to do the next thing-

Snoop Dogg 42:23 Right.

Joe Rogan 42:23 ... in order to finish the guy, so you see it coming. And you just... The problem with those little shows is sometimes, like, if, if DC's yelling out advice, they might be able to hear him.

Snoop Dogg 42:33 Oh, 'cause it's that close.

Joe Rogan 42:34 Because that Apex Center.

Snoop Dogg 42:35 Right.

Joe Rogan 42:35 The, the s- you, 'cause you did the one with "Sugar" Sean O'Malley, that was at the Apex Center, right?

Snoop Dogg 42:39 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 42:39 That's that little spot. It's intimate.

Snoop Dogg 42:41 You can hear it everything.

Joe Rogan 42:43 Yeah. So if you're yelling out advice, if you're Daniel Cormier and you're saying what the guy neededs to, needs to do right now-

Snoop Dogg 42:49 He may be listening to him. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 42:50 ... he's listening. He's listening. He's right there.

Snoop Dogg 42:53 He getting choked out, like, "What? What?"

Joe Rogan 42:55 Yeah. He needs to get his chin-

Snoop Dogg 42:56 Maybe if the guy just put his chin up... (laughs)

Joe Rogan 42:59 Yeah. Exactly. I mean, you're getting it, like, in real-time advice from an Olympian. And he's, uh, been coaching wrestling his whole life. I mean, he's, uh, he's still coaching wrestling. So it's like when you see a guy like that doing commentary.

Snoop Dogg 43:16 So here's the, here's the, here's the elephant in the room. Which UFC fighter is gonna handle Jake Paul?

Joe Rogan 43:24 I don't know. I mean, he, for- for them to be like a ... To get free from a UFC contract they currently have, I don't think Dana White is gonna do that.

Snoop Dogg 43:36 So nobody good enough can beat him that'll come over?

Joe Rogan 43:39 I don't know. I mean, maybe if they thought they could make a lot of money and there was someone who was like, a current UFC fighter and they could arrange it, maybe they could make some sort of a joint promotion. But I just don't see the UFC doing that.

Snoop Dogg 43:53 Well, I think Tyson-

Joe Rogan 43:53 And it doesn't have to. I mean, look, Jake, Jake Paul's killing it in boxing.

Snoop Dogg 43:57 He is.

Joe Rogan 43:57 It's, it's brilliant shit.

Snoop Dogg 43:59 I just don't want him to stand in front of Mike Tyson. It look like that's gonna happen if-

Joe Rogan 44:03 That's gonna be Logan. That's the one who fought Floyd.

Snoop Dogg 44:05 Well see, when he whooped Logan, it's all a domino effect.

Joe Rogan 44:09 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 44:10 Now go get your little brother.

Joe Rogan 44:12 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 44:13 (laughs) You know the ... Just you know this shit. Come on, Joe, quit playing with me, man.

Joe Rogan 44:17 (laughs) Yeah, listen.

Snoop Dogg 44:17 It's Mike Tyson we're talking about. This is not a regular motherfucker.

Joe Rogan 44:20 It's not a regular dude.

Snoop Dogg 44:21 And it may-

Joe Rogan 44:22 And I, and I don't give a fuck if he's 55.

Snoop Dogg 44:23 And it may trigger his old instincts. Like, do you know it's still, that motherfucker's still in there?

Joe Rogan 44:28 Snoop, let me tell you a story.

Snoop Dogg 44:30 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 44:30 The reason why this table's this wide-

Snoop Dogg 44:32 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 44:33 This is true. This is a true story. When I first moved to Austin, I had a, a smaller table that I was gonna set up. And I was like, "May- maybe I'll be a little more intimate-

Snoop Dogg 44:41 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 44:41 ... with, with the, with the guest." And then, uh, I had Mike on one time and the first time I had him on, Mike was not training at all and he said he can't work out at all because it'll ignite his ego and he just smokes a lot of weed. And we had a great conversation, it was real fun. And then he came back on again to promote the Ro- to, to promote the Roy Jones fight and he was jacked. He has giant muscles in his forearms.

Snoop Dogg 45:05 Stomach was on.

Joe Rogan 45:06 And he, he looked like he was ready to go.

Snoop Dogg 45:09 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 45:10 Like, you could see the element that made him Mike Tyson in his prime had been, like, reignited, whatever it was. I'm like, "Now I need, I need a wider table."

Snoop Dogg 45:19 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 45:19 I got, I was nervous in the room with him. Like, you could tell he's ready to go. I don't give a fuck if he's 55. Like, 55 in 2- 2021 is not 55 from like 1988.

Snoop Dogg 45:30 Yeah, it's not.

Joe Rogan 45:30 It's not the same thing.

Snoop Dogg 45:31 His punches gonna still fucking hurt when they hit your fucking head.

Joe Rogan 45:33 You watch him hit pads? Have you seen him hit pads with Rafael Cordeiro? It's terrifying.

Snoop Dogg 45:39 If he w-

Joe Rogan 45:39 It's fucking terrifi- Not terrifying because he's 55. Fucking terrifying.

Snoop Dogg 45:44 Mm.

Joe Rogan 45:44 That's a terrifying human. If he was 21 and he was hitting pads like that, I'd be like, "Holy shit."

Snoop Dogg 45:49 Mm.

Joe Rogan 45:49 "This kid's a killer."

Snoop Dogg 45:51 Mm. Iron Mike Tyson.

Joe Rogan 45:53 The fact that he can still do that at 55-

Snoop Dogg 45:55 Yeah. And he's smoking weed, Joe, so he's probably-

Joe Rogan 45:57 A lot of weed.

Snoop Dogg 45:57 He's probably at his best condition of his life.

Joe Rogan 46:00 I bet he's going in there high.

Snoop Dogg 46:02 Why wouldn't he?

Joe Rogan 46:03 Why wouldn't he? I think he said he fought Roy Jones high.

Snoop Dogg 46:06 I know for a fact he did.

Joe Rogan 46:08 I believe it. Why wouldn't he?

Snoop Dogg 46:10 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 46:10 Like, he likes it. Makes him more calm and relaxed and has fun.

Snoop Dogg 46:14 I walked through everybody's dressing room before the fight and made sure they had their pep speech for me.

Joe Rogan 46:18 Mm. I think he was gonna fight Lennox Lewis too. There was some talk of that.

Snoop Dogg 46:23 Wow.

Joe Rogan 46:23 But I don't know if that's real. Look at that fucking savage body punch. Jesus Christ.

Snoop Dogg 46:28 The pad, man, got to be hurting.

Joe Rogan 46:30 Ooh. Yeah. I mean, there's some videos of him, Jamie.

Snoop Dogg 46:35 Yeah.

Joe Rogan 46:35 See if you can find a video of him.

Snoop Dogg 46:36 Oh, with that speed.

Narrator 46:38 That's very recent.

Joe Rogan 46:39 That's recent?

Narrator 46:39 That was like ... Yeah, just yesterday.

Joe Rogan 46:40 See if you can find like one of those videos of him hitting the pads 'cause it's fucking horrifying.

Snoop Dogg 46:45 With that speed.

Joe Rogan 46:46 It's just amazing that he can still generate that kind of speed and power at 55 years old.

Snoop Dogg 46:52 See, what's gonna hurt is when he, that light click on, he gonna be like, "You the motherfucker that beat me."

Joe Rogan 46:58 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 46:59 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 47:01 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 47:01 He gonna treat one of the motherfuckers like Buster Douglas.

Joe Rogan 47:05 Man, when, in the '80s when he was in his prime, it was one of the craziest times ever for boxing, where fights just became like executions.

Snoop Dogg 47:15 Mike, look at the Mike Tyson, Snoop Dogg face. This shit.

Joe Rogan 47:20 (laughs)

Narrator 47:24 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 47:25 (sighs)

Joe Rogan 47:26 Oh, here it is. So here he is, 55 years old. I mean, come on, man.

Narrator 47:31 Uppercut, right hook, left, right. (punchingbags thudding)

Snoop Dogg 47:34 One, two, three, hit him with the, finish, finish. (punching bags thudding)

Joe Rogan 47:38 And you know, when you're looking at a lot of these videos, they're from months and months ago and he's still training.

Snoop Dogg 47:45 So he's only got better.

Joe Rogan 47:47 Yeah. He's getting it back.

Snoop Dogg 47:48 Muscle memory, right?

Joe Rogan 47:49 But this is terrifying.

Snoop Dogg 47:51 Look at his trainer eyes. That motherfucker look like, "Man, you better not hit ... Hey, Mike, hold on. My face right here."

Joe Rogan 47:57 (laughs) His trainer is a legend.

Snoop Dogg 47:59 Yeah. Gotta be.

Joe Rogan 48:00 Rafael Cordeiro's a legend.

Snoop Dogg 48:01 He gotta be to stand his ass in front of him. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 48:03 Yeah. He's a Muay Thai, uh, specialist, but an MMA coach from, uh, Shoot To Box.

Snoop Dogg 48:10 Mm.

Joe Rogan 48:10 Rafael Cordeiro.

Snoop Dogg 48:11 Shoot To Box.

Joe Rogan 48:11 He's a legend. And he runs King's MMA.

Snoop Dogg 48:14 Oh, that's big.

Joe Rogan 48:15 Yeah. That guy training with Mike Tyson is crazy. It's, it's fascinating that Mike chose, uh, like a martial arts guy to do it.

Snoop Dogg 48:23 He got it, he got his mind right. That's letting you know his mental is different.

Joe Rogan 48:26 Dude, he looks terrifying. He's terrifying. The fact that Logan Paul wants to box him, it's like, "Wow."

Snoop Dogg 48:32 Well-

Joe Rogan 48:32 I can't believe they're really gonna do that.

Snoop Dogg 48:34 I, I can. I'm probably gonna be announcing the shit. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 48:37 Yeah? What's your prediction?

Snoop Dogg 48:41 I got ... Second round KO.

Joe Rogan 48:44 Yeah, that kid's gonna get hit for sure.

Snoop Dogg 48:46 'cause Floyd was hitting him.

Joe Rogan 48:48 Yeah. Floyd was hitting him. Uh, uh, Floyd is, you know, only taken like a small amount of time off and Floyd's had those exhibition fights, you know, he's stayed, stayed in shape.

Snoop Dogg 48:59 Floyd's power is nowhere near Mike Tyson's power.

Joe Rogan 49:02 Nowhere. Nowhere. But I was just saying that Floyd has been pretty active like as a boxer.

Snoop Dogg 49:06 Yeah, yeah.

Joe Rogan 49:06 He'd fought Pacquiao recently, you know.

Snoop Dogg 49:09 Yeah. Went to Japan and fought.

Joe Rogan 49:10 Mm-hmm. Yeah, I mean, he fought that ... Yeah, the Japanese, uh, kickboxing guy, N- Nazukawa. Uh, Tenshin. He fought, um, uh, he was just ... He was fighting guys like Conor McGregor that we knew Floyd was gonna beat them.

Snoop Dogg 49:25 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 49:25 But he was still active.

Snoop Dogg 49:26 Right.

Joe Rogan 49:27 With Mike Tyson, Mike hadn't been active forever.

Snoop Dogg 49:29 At all.

Joe Rogan 49:29 Forever.

Snoop Dogg 49:31 He was getting fat for a minute.

Joe Rogan 49:32 Yeah, he got real fat.

Snoop Dogg 49:33 And he was smoking-

Joe Rogan 49:34 Went vegan for a while.

Snoop Dogg 49:35 ... weed all the time, yep.

Joe Rogan 49:37 Yeah, he's, uh, you know, that's a different kind of person.

Snoop Dogg 49:41 Shit, Mike in shape now. He look good as a motherfucker right now.

Joe Rogan 49:44 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 49:44 He looks chiseled, his mind is right, he got some good weed, got his motherfucking body together. I'm like, "Yeah, that's the Mike I like."

Joe Rogan 49:52 Yeah, it's gonna be interesting. It's gonna be interesting to see what, what Logan can do to keep away from him.

Snoop Dogg 49:58 Well, I'm betting on Mike, all my money. (laughs)

Joe Rogan 50:01 Yeah, it just, the only thing that you would have on Logan's side is youth.

Snoop Dogg 50:06 Youth?

Joe Rogan 50:07 That's it.

Snoop Dogg 50:08 You don't sit your young ass down somewhere?

Joe Rogan 50:12 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 50:14 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 50:14 Yeah, it's the level of skill is like so many magnitudes different.

Snoop Dogg 50:20 I got-

Joe Rogan 50:20 That's why it's-

Snoop Dogg 50:21 I got-

Joe Rogan 50:21 ... it's wild.

Snoop Dogg 50:21 ... one more song for you. Where do I put it? In the AirDrop?

Narrator 50:23 Yep.

Snoop Dogg 50:25 Did you get it? Did you get it, Jamie?

Narrator 50:30 No.

Snoop Dogg 50:32 What I got to do? Highlight it and then put it in there?

Narrator 50:34 Yeah, drag, drag and, drag and drop it on top of my name.

Snoop Dogg 50:38 Okay, what about that? Hey, this is a anthem for me and you right now.

50:44 (instrumental music) Yeah. Main one. You got some weed, now's the time to blaze that shit up. Come on. I like my weed, uh, in the morning. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I like my weed. I said I like my weed, my weed in the noontime. I'm rolling up. I like my weed in the evening. In the evening, rolling in the evening. I like my weed when I go to sleep at night. Yeah. Yeah. The world getting sicker every day, I feel like it's about to end. About to end this week. It's about to end. End. Mobbing through this life, I'm trying to separate the really for real and pretend. From what? From what? 'Cause all these niggas always look crazy. Lookin' crazy. Every day a mother lose her baby. A mother lose her baby. And every day a baby lose they mama. And we all go to Instagram for drama. I like my weed. Said, I like my weed. In the morning. Like it in the morning. I like my weed.

51:47 For all the weed smokers out there-

51:49 In the noontime.

51:50 ... November 19th-

51:51 I like my weed.

51:52 ... this single is out right now.

51:55 In the evening.

51:55 Jane Hancock, off of that Algorithm album.

51:58 I like my weed.

51:58 Def Jam. Talk to them, Jane.

52:01 When I go to sleep at night. Yeah. I'm high.

52:05 Blaze that shit up, what you waiting on?

52:09 Yeah. Uh. Dreams of me living lavish. Got to do great, I can't do average. I'm well established. You got some weed, then go on and pass it. Different fabric. You'd be surprised who really active.

52:21 When it's what?

52:22 When them lights, camera, flash in.

52:24 Come on.

52:24 I ain't gossiping with these birds, I'm on other shit.

52:27 Why?

52:27 Niggas can't talk to me stupid 'cause I'm not that other bitch. Cautious with who I'm with. Thank God I'm talented. I got to hit her right per se if you want my mastering. This time I'm betting on me. And I don't give a fuck if I can write these songs in my sleep. I told myself that it'd be over if I had self-esteem. And now I got it. I'm freestyling, but my style ain't for free. Just think about it. I do this for the ones in the hood that will never leave you. You can see this product from Richmond, and believe it. Long as its good, go on do what you wanna. My mom and dad know that I ain't scared to smoke my marijuana. Yeah.

53:04 All the weed smokers out there.

53:06 Smoke it in the morning.

53:09 If you're on your lunch break.

53:10 Smoke it on your lunch break.

53:13 Get your smoke on real quick. Go in the bathroom or sit in your car.

53:17 I like, I like, I like when my thoughts come down.

53:21 I smoke.

53:23 Yeah. Rolling up.

53:27 Jane Hancock, off of that Algorithm album. November 19th on Def Jam. Live and exclusive on The Joe Rogan Experience.

Joe Rogan 53:35 You bet you. (laughs) Can I ask you how you create a song? Like, how, when, when you're putting something like that together, do you write it out on paper? Do you just say it until you remember it? Like, Jay-Z apparently doesn't write anything, right?

Snoop Dogg 53:49 Right.

Joe Rogan 53:50 Just keeps it all in his head. Do you do that? Do you write it?

Snoop Dogg 53:53 When I first started out, my first album, Doggystyle, I got two songs where I just freestyled. One is called, Geez N Hustlaz, and one is called, The Shiznit. Those two songs, I just went there and just freestyled whatever came out of my mind and my head at the day. I've been good at that for a long time, but a lot of times I like to make sure that I'm pinpointing a specific topic, a specific cadence, and a specific style that I'm trying to perfect when I'm making a song. I'm not just trying to make a record for the day, I'm trying to make something that's gonna be here tomorrow and the next day and the next year.

Joe Rogan 54:31 So when you said you freestyle it, you mean like, when you walked in, you really didn't know what you were gonna sing when you were recording it?

Snoop Dogg 54:37 Well, the song, The Shiznit, was supposed to be a mic check. I was supposed to go in there and just check the mic.

Joe Rogan 54:44 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 54:44 Mic check one, two, mic check it, and Dre put the beat on. Mic check, check, one, two, one, two. (singing) Hopping, stopping, hopping like a rabbit. When I take the Nina Ross, you know I gots to have it. I stay back in the cut, retain myself. I'm thinking about this shit and I'm thinking, "Well, how can I makes my grip? And how can I make that nigga straight slip?" Said trip, got to get him for his grip as I dip around the corner. Now I'm on a-nother mission, wishing upon a star. It's Snoop Doggy Dogg with the caviar-

Joe Rogan 55:15 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 55:15 ... in the back of the limo. No demo, this is the real. I'm breaking niggas down like Evander Holyfield. Chill till the next episode.

Joe Rogan 55:23 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 55:23 I make money and I really don't love hoes. To tell you the truth, I swope in the coupe. I used to love... (laughs) Man, come on, man, quit playing with me, Joe.

Joe Rogan 55:31 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 55:31 That was all a freestyle, just going in that motherfucker and just spit from the dome, and it just came out and Doc and Dre just made it work.

Joe Rogan 55:36 Wow.

Snoop Dogg 55:38 Made it work.But every song is different, you know, 'cause sometimes a song will come to me from just, like, hearing some shit or just being out somewhere and being like, "Damn, I want to make a song about whatever I just went through or whatever I'm going through or whatever (snaps fingers) is the moment." It's always a, a different experience every time we make a song.

Joe Rogan 55:58 So sometimes it's something that you actually write out?

Snoop Dogg 56:01 A lot of times. The song Murder Was the Case, I wrote that song, um, because I was thinking about life after death. The song was initially called Dave, D-A-V-E, Death After Visualizing Eternity.

Joe Rogan 56:19 Whoa.

Snoop Dogg 56:19 And it was crazy that I was thinking of shit like that and I had made a song called Murder Was the Case that was about me losing my life, but before I lost my life, I did a... cut a deal with the devil, but then God came back and gave me another chance. That was in my mind, but when I wrote it, it just became some gangster shit, but that was the premise behind it. And it was just in my head, like, "I want to write a song like this." And then three months later, I caught a murder case in real life.

Joe Rogan 56:49 Whoa.

Snoop Dogg 56:49 Yes. So my pen was actually writing reality, so I had to pull back from certain things and say, "Maybe now I should start writing about life and living instead of always writing about dying and death."

Joe Rogan 57:06 Whoa.

Snoop Dogg 57:07 Deep.

Joe Rogan 57:08 Very.

Snoop Dogg 57:09 Just, but... Just think about my peers, me, Tupac, Biggie-

Joe Rogan 57:13 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 57:13 Like, just think about our records, the last records that they made. It was a lot of death. It had some life in it too, but it had a lot of death in it.

Joe Rogan 57:26 Yeah, that East Coast/West Coast shit, it became a, a real, a real divide in the country with hip hop, right?

Snoop Dogg 57:33 Yeah, it was, because you didn't wanna be on the wrong side and you didn't wanna, like... Like, for example, if you had friends, right, that was leaning more towards the East Coast and then you had a friend that really wanted to hear West Coast music, y'all might have ended y'all friendship-

Joe Rogan 57:48 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 57:48 ... based off of that.

Joe Rogan 57:49 Really?

Snoop Dogg 57:50 It was that serious.

Joe Rogan 57:51 Yeah. How did it... It went... It kinda isn't that way anymore though, right?

Snoop Dogg 57:55 Mm-mm. What it was, it-

Joe Rogan 57:57 The more you... That's good. Isn't that, like, a good sign for the future?

Snoop Dogg 58:00 That's a great sign. There's people working together from al- from all parts of the world.

Joe Rogan 58:04 'Cause, like, in the '90s, that was a real problem. There was a real divide.

Snoop Dogg 58:08 The divide was the, we couldn't control the media like we can now.

Joe Rogan 58:14 Hmm.

Snoop Dogg 58:14 So even back then, East Coast and West Coast used to hang with each other and, and kick it and love each other, but we didn't control the media platforms, so we, we couldn't... We didn't have a Instagram or Facebook or none of that shit where we can slap up a picture of me and Nas and-

Joe Rogan 58:29 Mm-hmm.

Snoop Dogg 58:29 ... Jay-Z and this person hanging out.

Joe Rogan 58:31 Right.

Snoop Dogg 58:31 We didn't have that. All you had was the media saying, "The East Coast and the West Coast don't like each other. Which side you choosing?"

Joe Rogan 58:38 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 58:39 And that's just that.

Joe Rogan 58:40 Yeah. And it's their job just to sell newspapers.

Snoop Dogg 58:45 Right, and it's- And then once lives were lost and you could blame... You could naturally say, "Tupac, okay, did somebody have something to do with that from the East Coast? We don't know. Biggie, he got killed on the West Coast," that put speculation that maybe somebody from the West Coast has something to do with it. So it just kept fueling to the fire until you had people like, uh, Puffy, myself, Steve Harvey, who were man enough to say, "Look, we need to put an end to this and let people know that we don't advocate that. We really love each other. We're a family." And we started building bridges and started doing things together and being seen together and, and controlling our own narrative as far as what we was putting in the public's eye.

Joe Rogan 59:26 I'm glad that it, uh, it ended, because it showed that that's possible, that real disputes... I mean, just think about the dispute in this country between just the Democrats and the Republicans.

Snoop Dogg 59:37 Mm.

Joe Rogan 59:37 Like, what the fuck? I thought we were all supposed to be American. It's like we split it down to two sides of a country, and it seems like it's a similar thing.

Snoop Dogg 59:45 It is.

Joe Rogan 59:45 And I, I hope we can get over it the same way East Coast/West Coast rappers got over it, because-

Snoop Dogg 59:51 I know, I know we can because-

Joe Rogan 59:51 ... that's real progress.

Snoop Dogg 59:52 One thing about the world we live in right now, Joe, look at me and you. Look at how we doing this right now. You know how many people we bringing together by me and you sitting right here chopping it up talking? We making peace right now.

Joe Rogan 1:00:05 I hope so.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:06 I know so.

Joe Rogan 1:00:07 I hope so.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:07 I know so, 'cause there's... It's a ton of motherfuckers that I know that fuck with you, that love you, that suggested that I do your show. And I've been telling you that anyway, you know what I'm saying? I've been... Through all of my people, whether it was Bert Kreischer, whether it was... Whoever the fuck, it's always been like, "Joe, what's happening? When I'm gonna come on your show?" I'll always be at, "What's happening, Joe? When I'm gonna come on your show?"

Joe Rogan 1:00:28 I just never wanted to bother you.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:30 Fuck all that.

Joe Rogan 1:00:31 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:00:31 I didn't want to hear that shit. That nig-... You go drop-

Joe Rogan 1:00:33 I ne-

Snoop Dogg 1:00:33 ... that soft-ass comment, "I never wanted to bother you."

Joe Rogan 1:00:36 I never wanted to bother you.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:37 Every time I see you, don't I bother you?

Joe Rogan 1:00:38 Listen, man, I... You're one of the guys that I get legi- legit nervous around.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:43 Come on, man.

Joe Rogan 1:00:43 I've been a fan of yours for so long, I get nervous that you talk to me. (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:00:46 Remember when Bert, remember when Bert called you that night-

Joe Rogan 1:00:49 Yes.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:49 ... when we was doing the Go Big Show?

Joe Rogan 1:00:50 Yes.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:50 What's the... What did I say? "What's happening, Joe?"

Joe Rogan 1:00:52 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:52 "Can I do the podcast?"

Joe Rogan 1:00:53 Listen, you can do the podcast anytime you want.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:55 I'm just saying.

Joe Rogan 1:00:56 I just didn't want to bother you.

Snoop Dogg 1:00:56 But people on my team suggested. Like, well, you know, we pushing an album and all that shit definitely for press and promotions, but on top of that, they was like, "Man, Joe Rogan is the motherfucker. Do you know him?" I'm like, "What? Let me, let me text him-

Joe Rogan 1:01:10 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:01:10 ... and see what's happening real quick." So I had to pull out my Rolodex and text you, and you was like, "Hey man, this is the wrong number. Hit me from the other number." Then you called me.

Joe Rogan 1:01:19 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:01:19 I'm like, "Look, Joe, fuck that shit."

Joe Rogan 1:01:20 Oh.

Snoop Dogg 1:01:20 "I gotta come see you, man. Let's make it official, man. I love you and I love what you do, so we just need to stand by each other and support what we do." This is what it's about.

Joe Rogan 1:01:29 When I was on, uh, FaceTime with you, this is how you transcend generations. I was on FaceTime with you at my dinner table and, uh, I have a, a daughter who has a dog named Snoop.

Snoop Dogg 1:01:40 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:01:40 And somehow or another, my 13-year-old thought I was talking to the dog.

Snoop Dogg 1:01:45 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:01:45 And, uh, I'm like, "What's up, Snoop?"

Snoop Dogg 1:01:47 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:01:47 And then, uh, I turn and I show her the FaceTime and she goes, "Holy shit, it's Snoop Dogg!"

Snoop Dogg 1:01:52 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:01:52 "For real!"My daughter's never done that.

Snoop Dogg 1:02:00 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:02:00 That Zer- the, "Holy shit, it's Snoop Dogg for real." (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:02:03 She said that like she been saying that shit for years.

Joe Rogan 1:02:06 (clapping)

Snoop Dogg 1:02:06 That shit came out too slick.

Joe Rogan 1:02:07 Ah! (laughs) It was hilarious.

Snoop Dogg 1:02:10 Come on man, we family, man.

Joe Rogan 1:02:11 That's amazing.

Snoop Dogg 1:02:12 I just, I just met the dog in real life.

Joe Rogan 1:02:14 Yeah. He's-

Snoop Dogg 1:02:14 What y'all don't know, me and the dog just bonded. Snoop-

Joe Rogan 1:02:16 He's a little cutie, isn't he?

Snoop Dogg 1:02:17 Yeah, man, he fuck with me. That's my nephew, man. You understand me?

Joe Rogan 1:02:20 Ah.

Snoop Dogg 1:02:20 I'm the Dogg Father. You know, when the dogs see me, they-

Joe Rogan 1:02:23 You have 20 dogs?

Snoop Dogg 1:02:23 Yeah. When a dog see me, Joe, this is n- naturally what happens. I don't give a fuck if it's the meanest, toughest dog, either he come over to me and he rub me or he lay on his back, or he, he just sit down and just pee, 'cause he be so happy he just start peeing.

Joe Rogan 1:02:37 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:02:38 He be like, "Damn, that's Snoop Dogg." (hisses) (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:02:44 You're a real dog man.

Snoop Dogg 1:02:45 You seen it with your own two eyes.

Joe Rogan 1:02:47 I saw it, I saw it. You can't fake that. The way you came up to that little dog and then he was like, like froze, and you started petting him and he started giving in to you.

Snoop Dogg 1:02:54 And he posed for the picture.

Joe Rogan 1:02:55 Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 1:02:56 Come on now, Joe. Who does that?

Joe Rogan 1:02:57 Yeah. It's almost like-

Snoop Dogg 1:02:58 Who the fuck does that?

Joe Rogan 1:02:59 For him, it's like meeting, like, a, a mythical god.

Snoop Dogg 1:03:02 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:03:02 You've heard, like, your namesake, your namesake is a man, he raps, he's in movies, and you... Imagine you're a dog, you're trying to figure this out. "Who am I named after? Oh, I'm named after Sneep, Snoop D-O double G, the real."

Snoop Dogg 1:03:15 The motherfucking Dogg Father?

Joe Rogan 1:03:17 The Dogg Father.

Snoop Dogg 1:03:18 And when he seen me, he said, "That's, that smell like, that smell like the Dogg Father. Ooh, shiver me timbers. Huh. Exit stage left. It must be the Dogg Father."

Joe Rogan 1:03:29 Imagine-

Snoop Dogg 1:03:30 I must run up.

Joe Rogan 1:03:31 ... if he tried to explain to his friends that he met the real Snoop Dogg, they'd be like, "Shut the fuck up."

Snoop Dogg 1:03:35 "You lying."

Joe Rogan 1:03:35 "I'm telling you."

Snoop Dogg 1:03:36 "How the fuck you meet Snoop Dogg? Sit your little ass down somewhere."

Joe Rogan 1:03:39 I'm telling you, man.

Snoop Dogg 1:03:39 "You ain't meet no motherfucking Snoop Dogg." I met him, dog. I'm telling you. Motherfucker was scratching my back and everything.

Joe Rogan 1:03:45 Don't you think you have some sort of a telepathic relationship with dogs?

Snoop Dogg 1:03:49 I think I do.

Joe Rogan 1:03:50 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 1:03:50 I think I, I think that's what my, um, previous life, I think that's what I was.

Joe Rogan 1:03:54 If you have a good dog though, a good connection with your dog, I think everybody has a telepathic connection with their dog. You, you probably especially love dogs and they can i- they can sense that right away.

Snoop Dogg 1:04:04 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 1:04:04 Just like you can sense a person who's a loving person right away.

Snoop Dogg 1:04:07 Right.

Joe Rogan 1:04:08 Dogs can sense that too, and you obviously a, a loving, a dog person. You love that dog. I can tell.

Snoop Dogg 1:04:13 Man, I, I go up to the meanest, toughest dogs, yo.

Joe Rogan 1:04:16 Yeah.

Snoop Dogg 1:04:16 And I break them. Like, that's my thing, to break a dog. Like, he, he's, he's mean. He doesn't... I'm, I'm not the whisperer. What his name is? Cesar, the little dog whisperer? I ain't him. I'm like a different version of that. Like, it could be a real mean, tough dog and I'll be like, "Let me go talk to him." And I'll walk him back in the living room, "Sit." He sit down. "He's never sat like that before."

Joe Rogan 1:04:39 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:04:39 I know. "Well, what did you do to him?" Don't worry about all that.

Joe Rogan 1:04:43 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:04:45 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:04:47 I've always been pretty good with dogs, but some g- dogs are just, you can't take a chance with them.

Snoop Dogg 1:04:52 The big ones.

Joe Rogan 1:04:52 Yeah, there's like Be- and not even some of the big ones. Like, there's some medium-sized ones that are real sketchy if they're not trained right, like Belgian Malinois.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:00 Oh yeah, I don't fuck with-

Joe Rogan 1:05:01 That's not a big dog.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:03 No, I'm talking about an American dog. All that European shit, I don't do all that.

Joe Rogan 1:05:06 Those are the, they're, they call them meat missiles. (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:05:09 Yeah, you got to talk to them in a different language. I don't speak that shit.

Joe Rogan 1:05:12 And you see those things, you're like, you're basically a wolf.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:15 Exactly.

Joe Rogan 1:05:16 That's basically a little wolf.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:17 Right. They-

Joe Rogan 1:05:18 And they use them for, uh, (clears throat) service duty. They're, they're, they're always used overseas. That's the, that's the dog of choice. Those motherfuckers can walk on tightropes.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:28 Right.

Joe Rogan 1:05:28 Have you ever seen that, Snoop?

Snoop Dogg 1:05:29 No, I haven't.

Joe Rogan 1:05:30 They walk tightropes.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:31 For real?

Joe Rogan 1:05:32 Yeah, for real. Yeah, they have, like, two tightropes and the dog puts one paw on each one and he walks on this tightrope. They go over obstacle courses. They can jump, like, 20 feet in the air. They're like missiles.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:43 You know what my mission was when I used to go overseas (clears throat) was to break the mother-

Joe Rogan 1:05:49 Look at this. Watch this video. Look at this fucking dog. This is how smart they are. Look at this obstacle course this dog's running. Watch this.

Snoop Dogg 1:05:59 Oh, that's hard.

Joe Rogan 1:06:00 This is crazy. This is how smart they are and how driven they are. This dog has a course to run. He knows the course. He's walking on ropes, hopping from object to object. The fact that a dog could be trained to do this and follow these instructions this clearly, like, he knows exactly where to go and he's doing all this crazy shit. Like, look, he's on a fucking tightrope again. And you don't have to talk to him, you don't have to tell him what to do. He knows what to do. Is it this guy giving him instruction or the dog just doing it, Jamie?

Narrator 1:06:33 I don't know. Ready? Good. Back up. Back. Good boy. Go.

Joe Rogan 1:06:38 Okay, he is giving him instructions.

Snoop Dogg 1:06:39 That's gangster right there.

Joe Rogan 1:06:40 Look at that. He's making the dog walk on his fucking front legs.

Snoop Dogg 1:06:43 That was gangster as fuck.

Joe Rogan 1:06:44 That's crazy.

Narrator 1:06:45 Come on, Monkey. Go, go. Hurry up. Come on, come.

Joe Rogan 1:06:48 The fact that you can teach a dog to do this, like, that is not a normal dog.

Narrator 1:06:51 Yes. Back.

Joe Rogan 1:06:52 That, that dog must have immense problem-solving drive-

Narrator 1:06:56 Good boy.

Joe Rogan 1:06:56 ... like prey drive.

Narrator 1:06:57 Good. Look at this.

Joe Rogan 1:06:57 And that's what makes a good hunter. That's why they're so scary. (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:07:01 Yeah, he can go get a rat-

Narrator 1:07:02 Go. Come on.

Joe Rogan 1:07:02 Exactly.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:03 ... or a big ass-

Joe Rogan 1:07:03 Or a person.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:04 Yeah.

Joe Rogan 1:07:04 That dog will go get a person.

Narrator 1:07:06 Go, Monkey.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:06 This nigga's walking on a ladder. Come on, cuz.

Joe Rogan 1:07:07 Yeah, he's walking up a ladder and going down a slide.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:09 Come on, man. Come on, come on. Come on, cuz.

Joe Rogan 1:07:11 (laughs)

Narrator 1:07:12 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:07:12 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:07:12 Come on, cuz. On the roof?

Joe Rogan 1:07:13 He's on the roof.

Narrator 1:07:16 And s-

Snoop Dogg 1:07:16 And he went up there to get the ball. That's amazing.

Joe Rogan 1:07:18 Oh, that's how gangsters go.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:19 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:07:19 That's amazing. And for his reward, he gets a ball.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:23 Wow.

Joe Rogan 1:07:24 Dude, that's, see-

Snoop Dogg 1:07:25 That's what she said. She wanted some balls for her reward.

Joe Rogan 1:07:28 You know what's interesting? It's like, that's cool to watch.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:31 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:07:31 It's cool to watch a dog that can do that. It's amazing.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:33 That's the shit.

Joe Rogan 1:07:33 But why does, why does a dog have that kind of problem-solving ability? Why? To kill things.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:39 Right. Right.

Joe Rogan 1:07:40 That's why.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:40 That's right.

Joe Rogan 1:07:41 That's why it's so good at that.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:43 Right. Right.

Joe Rogan 1:07:43 It's why it's also so hard to control. They want to kill things.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:45 Go find him. Go find him.

Joe Rogan 1:07:46 Yeah, exactly. They just want to hunt.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:48 Oh, you going to get found with that motherfucker looking for you.

Joe Rogan 1:07:51 (sighs) That's not a big dog either. That's kind of a scary animal, 'cause that's like a 60-pound thing that'll take out men.

Snoop Dogg 1:07:57 It look like a German shepherd damn near.

Joe Rogan 1:07:58 They look similar, but they're smaller.They're actually... Well, I don't know for the most part.

Snoop Dogg 1:08:03 You know, when-

Joe Rogan 1:08:03 I'm not, I'm not a Belgian Malinois expert, but I believe they're smaller.

Snoop Dogg 1:08:07 I'm gonna tell you what my mission was.

Joe Rogan 1:08:08 Look at this.

Snoop Dogg 1:08:08 Like-

Joe Rogan 1:08:08 Snoop, look at this. Look at this dog.

Snoop Dogg 1:08:11 Oh, he got too much.

Joe Rogan 1:08:12 Look at that. Look at that. How, look how fucking high he jumps. I mean, how high is he?

Snoop Dogg 1:08:17 Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan 1:08:18 That's like 20 feet in the air. What the fuck?

Snoop Dogg 1:08:21 Wow.

Joe Rogan 1:08:22 How does an animal jump 20 feet in the air?

Snoop Dogg 1:08:26 Oh, yeah.

Joe Rogan 1:08:26 It's like these things are-

Snoop Dogg 1:08:27 Get off my owner, man.

Joe Rogan 1:08:28 ... fucking ferocious, man, and they're so athletic. Like look at this, look at this dog leap. It's climbing a fucking wall. Climbs a fucking wall, jumps off of his owner's back, and climbs like 20 feet up a fucking wall and scrambles to the top.

Snoop Dogg 1:08:46 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:08:46 I mean, what the hell, man? Can you imagine if you're on top of that thing and you're like, "I'm safe up here."

Snoop Dogg 1:08:51 (laughs)

Joe Rogan 1:08:51 Shit, this is like 20 feet. And you see that thing running up the hill? Look at that, with its mouth open. Why can it do that? It can do that in, in place of killing things.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:02 Right.

Joe Rogan 1:09:02 Because it needs (laughs) , it needs stimulation, like-

Snoop Dogg 1:09:06 Wow.

Joe Rogan 1:09:06 ... hunt-type stimulation.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:08 Whew.

Joe Rogan 1:09:08 It needs something to initiate that prey drive over and over again. So if you can get it to chase a ball or run or grab or walk across a tightrope, it'll do that. What it really wants to do is kill shit.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:18 Is kill, right.

Joe Rogan 1:09:19 Wants to go kill shit.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:20 That's a-

Joe Rogan 1:09:20 That's a little wolf.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:20 That's a pacifier right there.

Joe Rogan 1:09:22 Yeah. That's a fucking wolf.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:23 Damn, damn, damn.

Joe Rogan 1:09:25 Damn, damn, damn.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:26 Look, my mission back in the days when I used to go overseas was to break that motherfucking beagle. 'Cause that beagle used to be waiting on us when we'd come through the airport, smelling like that good dope.

Joe Rogan 1:09:38 Oh.

Snoop Dogg 1:09:39 And that motherfucker come stand right next to a motherfucker. When he standing next to you, they call you out the line and run through all your bags. So I had to figure out how to break this motherfucker. I took a little class on beagles.

Joe Rogan 1:09:52 (laughs)

Snoop Dogg 1:09:52 So next time I went overseas, little motherfucker pulled up on me, and he looked at me and he was like... And I gave him a little signal. He said, "No, not him." And he went and stood next to another motherfucker. And that was a beautiful thing, and I learned how to break the
