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

   4. JRJoe Rogan0:12

      You buying a Rolls-Royce?

   5. TDTim Dillon0:14

      I don't know if I'm gonna buy a Rolls-Royce, but I li-

   6. JRJoe Rogan0:15

      (laughs)

   7. TDTim Dillon0:15

      ... I do like them.

   8. JRJoe Rogan0:17

      What about a Cadillac? I think you're more of a Cadillac guy.

   9. TDTim Dillon0:20

      Well, that's a, that's a knock.

   10. JRJoe Rogan0:23

       (laughs)

   11. TDTim Dillon0:23

       Right?

   12. JRJoe Rogan0:23

       No, they're great.

   13. TDTim Dillon0:24

       That's kinda of a knock.

   14. JRJoe Rogan0:25

       No, they're great cars.

   15. TDTim Dillon0:26

       It's a Long Island... It's a... It's a-

   16. JRJoe Rogan0:29

       Aren't you?

   17. TDTim Dillon0:29

       Yeah. It's a car for a Long Island guy who's a little full of shit.

   18. JRJoe Rogan0:32

       From?

   19. TDTim Dillon0:32

       Yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan0:33

       Long Island?

   21. TDTim Dillon0:33

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan0:34

       Yeah?

   23. TDTim Dillon0:34

       I can see myself in an Escalade.

   24. JRJoe Rogan0:36

       They're great.

   25. TDTim Dillon0:36

       It's... They're amazing. There's a lot of guys who wanna be Tony Soprano-

   26. JRJoe Rogan0:40

       (laughs)

   27. TDTim Dillon0:40

       ... who aren't Tony Soprano, who like the Sopranos, who drive Escalades.

   28. JRJoe Rogan0:45

       That is an issue.

   29. TDTim Dillon0:46

       Oh, yeah.

   30. JRJoe Rogan0:47

       Yeah. It's like pinky rings.
2. 1:42 – 5:27

   Tesla Plaid: absurd speed, dumb yoke, and the cult of EV owners

   1. JRJoe Rogan1:42

      I got the Tesla, the new, uh, Plaid.

   2. TDTim Dillon1:44

      The fast one.

   3. JRJoe Rogan1:45

      It's preposterous.

   4. TDTim Dillon1:46

      It's insane.

   5. JRJoe Rogan1:47

      But the steering wheel's dumb. It's a yoke.

   6. TDTim Dillon1:50

      Yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan1:50

      And I'm, I'm not a fan of the steering wheel.

   8. TDTim Dillon1:51

      You gotta talk to your boy.

   9. JRJoe Rogan1:53

      I, I don't know what to tell him. He's-

   10. TDTim Dillon1:54

       Yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan1:54

       ... dead set on the yoke. But, uh, and I-

   12. TDTim Dillon1:56

       What is the yoke? It's like a gu- Like a-

   13. JRJoe Rogan1:58

       Like a Formula One car.

   14. TDTim Dillon1:59

       Right.

   15. JRJoe Rogan1:59

       You know?

   16. TDTim Dillon2:00

       Right.

   17. JRJoe Rogan2:00

       Like, it's got a handle on here and a handle on here.

   18. TDTim Dillon2:02

       Yeah.

   19. JRJoe Rogan2:02

       And you're just kinda like holding it like this.

   20. TDTim Dillon2:03

       Yeah.

   21. JRJoe Rogan2:03

       Not only that, the horn is not this anymore. It does not hit the center. It's a button that you have to awkwardly move your thumb to get to, to hit, and you have to know. That's the steering wheel. See where the horn is? See the little horn icon?

   22. TDTim Dillon2:15

       Yeah.

   23. JRJoe Rogan2:16

       Fuck that thing. I'm not a fan of that. I mean, when I grab the top, my thumb, if extended, does go where the horn is, like perfectly. But I wanna hit the center. That's where the horn is. The horn's the center.

   24. TDTim Dillon2:29

       Yeah. It's old habits die hard.

   25. JRJoe Rogan2:31

       And the blinkers. You see the blinkers? They're on the left-hand side. That's left and right. So you have to look. Instead of, like, the little stick-

   26. TDTim Dillon2:38

       Right.

   27. JRJoe Rogan2:38

       ... I like the stick. The left, right, left, right. It's easy. The stick's easy.

   28. TDTim Dillon2:42

       My problem with Tesla is my producer has a Tesla, and people that have Teslas think they've, they've done well but what it's? It's like a $35,000 car, right? It's a cheap car.

   29. JRJoe Rogan2:53

       Uh, depends on which one you get.

   30. TDTim Dillon2:54

       Right.
3. 5:27 – 6:52

   The EV future and the dirty underside: lithium, mining, and coltan parallels

   1. TDTim Dillon5:27

      Right. Do you think the EV market is just the future in terms of like what we're gonna see?

   2. JRJoe Rogan5:32

      It is, but it's like, do they have enough battery material? That's my question.

   3. TDTim Dillon5:37

      Well, we'll start a few wars.

   4. JRJoe Rogan5:38

      Ah-

   5. TDTim Dillon5:39

      I mean, what do they need? Lithium-ion? We can go back in Afghanistan.

   6. JRJoe Rogan5:42

      Yeah. I think they're going to war with Nevada right now-

   7. TDTim Dillon5:44

      Yeah.

   8. JRJoe Rogan5:44

      ... because they're pulling it out of Nevada.

   9. TDTim Dillon5:45

      Well, they're going to South America too.

   10. JRJoe Rogan5:47

       Yeah.

   11. TDTim Dillon5:47

       There's a lot of different-

   12. JRJoe Rogan5:49

       Minerals?

   13. TDTim Dillon5:49

       ... you know. Yeah, minerals down there, sure.

   14. JRJoe Rogan5:52

       Where's like... Where do they get most of their lithium? I think they are doing it in Nevada now. They... I did read something about Nevada being a hotbed for lithium.

   15. TDTim Dillon6:00

       Yeah. Well, that's the thing now. All these new tech companies are like very progressive and they, you know, have all these electric cars but they're mining these minerals that they need for their, uh, products in, in a lot of different places and, you know, they're... I'm sure they're not always doing this on the up-and-up.

   16. JRJoe Rogan6:20

       No. Well, we went over this the other day about Africa and coltan.... and that, like, at the heart of every cell phone is this mineral called coltan. And where they get coltan is, like, people are literally-

   17. TDTim Dillon6:32

       (sighs)

   18. JRJoe Rogan6:33

       ... digging it out of the ground in the Congo.

   19. TDTim Dillon6:35

       Right.

   20. JRJoe Rogan6:35

       And they're working in horrific conditions and, you know-

   21. TDTim Dillon6:38

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan6:39

       ... it's, it's fucking horrible, dirty work. What is this?

   23. TDTim Dillon6:42

       Uh, the biggest mine-

   24. JRJoe Rogan6:43

       Australia.

   25. TDTim Dillon6:43

       ... is in Australia, but the biggest company, uh, is an American company in Chile, Australia, and the US.

   26. JRJoe Rogan6:50

       Interesting.

   27. TDTim Dillon6:51

       Big market cap.

4. 6:52 – 8:43

   Australia’s COVID crackdown: draconian enforcement and power that never returns

   1. JRJoe Rogan6:52

      All right. Well, that's funny that they get it out of Australia. I don't feel bad about it at all. They take it from Australia. That's fine. (laughs)

   2. TDTim Dillon6:58

      Yeah, that's who cares? That's fine.

   3. JRJoe Rogan7:01

      That, that fucking place-

   4. TDTim Dillon7:01

      Take their minerals.

   5. JRJoe Rogan7:02

      ... has lost their mind.

   6. TDTim Dillon7:03

      They've gone insane.

   7. JRJoe Rogan7:04

      No one's lost their mind better than Australia, and it's a great sign that everyone needs guns.

   8. TDTim Dillon7:07

      Well, it was shocking, uh, that it was that country.

   9. JRJoe Rogan7:12

      Yeah.

   10. TDTim Dillon7:12

       Because I always thought that country was like a party.

   11. JRJoe Rogan7:15

       Yeah.

   12. TDTim Dillon7:15

       You know? Like, everybody was just having fun. And ... But, it is a penal colony.

   13. JRJoe Rogan7:22

       Yeah.

   14. TDTim Dillon7:22

       And a lot of the people there, um, you know, are the descendants of criminals and they d- ... And, and from knowing people that live in Australia, they don't love work, which is okay, right? Like, their culture is not about working. So, if somebody says, "Hey, sit in your yard and get hammered for a year," they don't ask too many questions. They go, "Let's do it." But then, it gets inc- ... You know, increasingly more and more draconian and crazy, and they're doing face scans, and they're checking your cup, "Did you really go for coffee? Let me see if you have coffee in your cup."

   15. JRJoe Rogan7:59

       Yeah.

   16. TDTim Dillon7:59

       Um, but it's crazy. But a lot ... You know, all these-

   17. JRJoe Rogan8:02

       That was g- ... I saw that video.

   18. TDTim Dillon8:03

       That was crazy.

   19. JRJoe Rogan8:03

       Checking that lady's ... Is it gut lady again?

   20. TDTim Dillon8:05

       Yeah, yeah. Th- ... Do you have coffee-

   21. JRJoe Rogan8:07

       Checking her cup.

   22. TDTim Dillon8:08

       ... in your cup?

   23. JRJoe Rogan8:08

       To make sure she can have her mask down to be drinking.

   24. TDTim Dillon8:11

       Yeah. It's insane. But this is after nine e- ... Like, you know, after 9/11 this happ- ... You know, when I ... You know, you, you get patted down now, you'll get molested. The TSA will molest you-

   25. JRJoe Rogan8:19

       Yeah.

   26. TDTim Dillon8:20

       ... at an airport, um, for no reason. They're molesting a, a, an 85-year-old grandmother from Kentucky.

   27. JRJoe Rogan8:27

       In case she's a terrorist.

   28. TDTim Dillon8:28

       In case she has a bomb hidden. You know?

   29. JRJoe Rogan8:30

       (laughs)

   30. TDTim Dillon8:30

       So, this is a, a problem, right? I mean, unless y- ... People restore ... Hopefully, this variant sweeps, it's mild, everybody's got natural immunity, and we move on.
5. 8:43 – 11:43

   Vaccines, boosters, and mandates: shifting promises and public mistrust

   1. JRJoe Rogan8:43

      The, the reality of human beings is, once you give people power, they don't give it back.

   2. TDTim Dillon8:47

      Yeah.

   3. JRJoe Rogan8:48

      And that's what's going on now with fucking Lori Lightfoot in Chicago-

   4. TDTim Dillon8:51

      Yeah.

   5. JRJoe Rogan8:51

      ... says she's gonna make it inconvenient for everybody who doesn't have a vaccine.

   6. TDTim Dillon8:55

      Yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan8:55

      But the, the bottom line is, the vaccine doesn't work on this variant. They're saying it's a-

   8. TDTim Dillon8:59

      They're saying-

   9. JRJoe Rogan9:00

      It's a var-

   10. TDTim Dillon9:00

       ... yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan9:00

       It's a vaccine escape variant.

   12. TDTim Dillon9:02

       So, i- ... Does it keep you out of the hospital?

   13. JRJoe Rogan9:05

       What keeps you out of the hospital? Being healthy.

   14. TDTim Dillon9:07

       Yeah.

   15. JRJoe Rogan9:07

       That mean, like, that they-

   16. TDTim Dillon9:08

       Well, supposedly-

   17. JRJoe Rogan9:09

       This is like ... The idea-

   18. TDTim Dillon9:09

       ... yeah.

   19. JRJoe Rogan9:09

       ... that the only thing that keeps you out of the hospital is medicine.

   20. TDTim Dillon9:12

       Well, no, I don't think it's the only thing, but I'm l- ... I, I ti- ... Get my news from Donald Trump, who told Candace Owens-

   21. JRJoe Rogan9:18

       (laughs)

   22. TDTim Dillon9:18

       ... that the vaccine (laughs) is a miracle, and it works.

   23. JRJoe Rogan9:21

       Well, because he came up with it.

   24. TDTim Dillon9:23

       Yeah, but a lot of people are saying that if you-

   25. JRJoe Rogan9:25

       Not really him, obviously.

   26. TDTim Dillon9:26

       You get ... You're out ... You're, you're prevented from death, or ...

   27. JRJoe Rogan9:29

       Eh.

   28. TDTim Dillon9:29

       ... you know. Which, by the way-

   29. JRJoe Rogan9:30

       But it-

   30. TDTim Dillon9:31

       ... is the last ... I mean, it started with, "You won't get it."
6. 11:43 – 19:46

   Early treatment wars: monoclonal antibodies, ivermectin controversy, and media incentives

   1. JRJoe Rogan11:43

      ... on people being vaccinated, unvaccinated. And there's a real problem with the lack of treatment. That's a real problem.

   2. TDTim Dillon11:48

      Sure.

   3. JRJoe Rogan11:48

      There's also a real tr- ... Problem in that when you get checked in-

   4. TDTim Dillon11:51

      But there's also a lack of healthcare.

   5. JRJoe Rogan11:51

      But when you get checked into-

   6. TDTim Dillon11:52

      Yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan11:52

      ... a hospital, if you already checked in, they then no longer will give you monoclonal antibodies. You literally have to get monoclonal antibodies in the emergency room. I- if you get checked-

   8. TDTim Dillon12:02

      Yeah.

   9. JRJoe Rogan12:02

      ... into the hospital-

   10. TDTim Dillon12:03

       Yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan12:03

       ... then there's no monoclonal antibodies.

   12. TDTim Dillon12:04

       And you're already too sick.

   13. JRJoe Rogan12:05

       Which doesn't make any sense. It literally makes no sense.

   14. TDTim Dillon12:08

       Right. I was listening to Peter McCullough-

   15. JRJoe Rogan12:10

       Mm-hmm.

   16. TDTim Dillon12:10

       ... who I ... And I don't know if this diminishes his credibility. I bought crack off him in Downtown Austin three days ago.

   17. JRJoe Rogan12:15

       He's got good crack, though.

   18. TDTim Dillon12:15

       Yeah, so I ... And, but other than that, he was saying, um-

   19. JRJoe Rogan12:20

       (laughs)

   20. TDTim Dillon12:20

       He was saying that you need to get on early treatment regimen. I think we're having these weird conversations that are kind of in a box because so many people don't have healthcare. They're afraid to go to the emergency room. They're afraid to go to a doctor. They don't have the money. They can't take off work.

   21. JRJoe Rogan12:34

       Yeah.

   22. TDTim Dillon12:34

       So, the idea that having this for-profit healthcare system, where everybody's trying to make money seems to be a real-... impetus to getting people early treatment because most people can't get early treatment because they're terrified of spending the money. They don't know what they're gonna get hit in the mail for.

   23. JRJoe Rogan12:55

       That's true. Yeah.

   24. TDTim Dillon12:56

       So it seems to be like, uh... I think everything he was saying about getting on early stuff makes sense if you can- if you have healthcare.

   25. JRJoe Rogan13:04

       Well, even if you don't have healthcare, the- the thing about ivermectin is that it's very inexpensive. Whether or not it actually works as the people that are proponents of it-

   26. TDTim Dillon13:14

       Right.

   27. JRJoe Rogan13:14

       ... think it does, remains to be seen.

   28. TDTim Dillon13:16

       Did you give it out for Halloween?

   29. JRJoe Rogan13:17

       Gave it to everybody.

   30. TDTim Dillon13:18

       Okay, 'cause I heard that you were giving it out for Halloween at the house.
7. 19:46 – 30:07

   VAERS, vaccine injuries, and the problem of measuring rare harms

   1. TDTim Dillon19:46

      They made some comment. How many people do you think really died from the va-... Do, do you think people are... 'Cause I know so many people-

   2. JRJoe Rogan19:52

      100% people have died from the vaccine.

   3. TDTim Dillon19:53

      Well, for sure.

   4. JRJoe Rogan19:54

      Right? We know that for a fact.

   5. TDTim Dillon19:55

      Yeah, but we don't know how many.

   6. JRJoe Rogan19:56

      We do know that historically the VAERS, which is the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System-

   7. TDTim Dillon20:02

      Yeah.

   8. JRJoe Rogan20:02

      ... the VAERS reports have been, uh, under, like wha- whenever under-reported means. If it's, uh... There was a c- there was one article that Harvard put out, a paper about. I think it was about the, uh, HPV vaccine.

   9. TDTim Dillon20:17

      Right.

   10. JRJoe Rogan20:18

       And they were saying that VAERS under-reported, uh, like as, as significantly as 1%. So it was like 99% unreported, 1% reported. So like out of 100 events, one of them would get reported.

   11. TDTim Dillon20:30

       Is there any chance people on VAERS are just having fun?

   12. JRJoe Rogan20:33

       I don't think that's the case, but yes.

   13. TDTim Dillon20:36

       'Cause I would-

   14. JRJoe Rogan20:37

       There's always a chance. (laughs)

   15. TDTim Dillon20:37

       ... I would like to go on VAERS and just ha-

   16. JRJoe Rogan20:40

       (laughs) Like a Yelp review?

   17. TDTim Dillon20:41

       ... for fun. Just for fun and just say the vaccine killed my whole family.

   18. JRJoe Rogan20:44

       Right.

   19. TDTim Dillon20:44

       Just for fun.

   20. JRJoe Rogan20:46

       Yeah.

   21. TDTim Dillon20:46

       But can... If I can do that, the question is, maybe other people, but maybe not.

   22. JRJoe Rogan20:51

       I don't... I think it's-

   23. TDTim Dillon20:52

       I think you have to say the name of your doctor. There's more that goes into it.

   24. JRJoe Rogan20:55

       Peter McCullough was describing how difficult it is to file a VAERS claim and-

   25. TDTim Dillon21:00

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan21:00

       ... what, what has to be r- r- you know, that... It's, it's complicated.

   27. TDTim Dillon21:03

       Right.

   28. JRJoe Rogan21:03

       And it's also, it comes with criminal penalties if it's your, if you're full of shit.

   29. TDTim Dillon21:06

       If you're, yeah.

   30. JRJoe Rogan21:07

       It's, uh... For sure, people have died. The question is how many. I think they're reporting now 18,000 deaths. But what is that?
8. 30:07 – 33:13

   Opioids, media priorities, and institutional rot: from fentanyl to intelligence scandals

   1. TDTim Dillon30:07

      Well, the other thing is we ignore, you know, part of the COVID thing has been it's taken all of the oxygen out of the conversation. We have an opioid epidemic. We have all kinds of other health problems too.

   2. JRJoe Rogan30:17

      More people have died from opioids this year-

   3. TDTim Dillon30:19

      Yeah.

   4. JRJoe Rogan30:19

      ... from 18 to 49 than anything.

   5. TDTim Dillon30:21

      Yeah.

   6. JRJoe Rogan30:22

      More than 100,000 people, 18 to 49, have died from opioids.

   7. TDTim Dillon30:25

      Yeah, I mean, they-

   8. JRJoe Rogan30:26

      From fentanyl in particular.

   9. TDTim Dillon30:27

      Fentanyl, laced cocaine, it's-

   10. JRJoe Rogan30:28

       Fuck.

   11. TDTim Dillon30:29

       ... a huge problem.

   12. JRJoe Rogan30:30

       That's a real epidemic and you hear a fucking peep about it on CNN. You don't hear-

   13. TDTim Dillon30:33

       Yeah.

   14. JRJoe Rogan30:34

       ... a goddamn peep.

   15. TDTim Dillon30:34

       They don't care.

   16. JRJoe Rogan30:35

       They also don't talk about the people that get arrested that work for them that are perverts.

   17. TDTim Dillon30:38

       (clicks tongue) There's a lot of that.

   18. JRJoe Rogan30:40

       Have you seen that?

   19. TDTim Dillon30:41

       There's more than, of, of that-

   20. JRJoe Rogan30:42

       There's two now.

   21. TDTim Dillon30:42

       ... than you would think.

   22. JRJoe Rogan30:44

       Yes.

   23. TDTim Dillon30:44

       'Cause it's, it's weird.

   24. JRJoe Rogan30:46

       Totally.

   25. TDTim Dillon30:46

       The CIA has that problem too.

   26. JRJoe Rogan30:48

       Do they?

   27. TDTim Dillon30:48

       They have that problem too.

   28. JRJoe Rogan30:50

       CIA has pedophiles-

   29. TDTim Dillon30:51

       And the NSA.

   30. JRJoe Rogan30:51

       ... working for them?
9. 33:13 – 1:13:05

   Epstein/Maxwell: show trial claims, redactions, and blackmail as governance

   1. NANarrator33:13

      Did you know that they're already deliberating for the Maxwell trial? I didn't know that it was almost over.

   2. TDTim Dillon33:17

      What?

   3. NANarrator33:17

      Yeah. They're, they're pausing-

   4. TDTim Dillon33:19

      Well, that was a trial.

   5. NANarrator33:20

      ... deliberations until Monday.

   6. TDTim Dillon33:20

      The, the Ghislaine Maxwell show trial was-

   7. NANarrator33:24

      The show trial? (laughs)

   8. TDTim Dillon33:24

      ... just, yeah, it was absolutely-

   9. JRJoe Rogan33:26

      (sighs)

   10. TDTim Dillon33:26

       ... a completely unserious attempt to-

   11. JRJoe Rogan33:29

       Listen to this. The judge in the Maxwell trial-

   12. TDTim Dillon33:31

       Yeah.

   13. JRJoe Rogan33:31

       ... asked jurors to deliberate today. They said, "No thank you." Interesting.

   14. TDTim Dillon33:36

       Well, 'cause it's the holidays.

   15. NANarrator33:37

       Yeah.

   16. JRJoe Rogan33:38

       Oh, right.

   17. NANarrator33:39

       So they take the weekend off.

   18. TDTim Dillon33:39

       I mean, you gotta enjoy Christmas without talking about this creep and his British girlfriend diddling children on an is- Like, there's got to be some level of, like, "Hey, we're trying to decorate our tree. Can we take three days and not do this?"

   19. JRJoe Rogan33:55

       Go, put that back where you could see what it said. Look at this, "Frustration grows over heavily redacted Epstein pilot's flight logs." Let me stop right there because if, if they can show Bill Clinton-

   20. TDTim Dillon34:06

       Yeah.

   21. JRJoe Rogan34:07

       ... flied with him 26 fucking times-

   22. TDTim Dillon34:09

       Yeah.

   23. JRJoe Rogan34:09

       ... who are they redacting?

   24. TDTim Dillon34:12

       Well, I think people that are currently in positions of power. You got to realize, the Clintons are done.

   25. JRJoe Rogan34:17

       Right.

   26. TDTim Dillon34:18

       They're done. They were very powerful, but they're done. But there's a lot of prime ministers, there's a lot of senators, there's a lot of congressmen, there's a lot of people that are still, presidents, vice pre-, who knows, that are still in power that they may be protecting.

   27. JRJoe Rogan34:32

       My favorite is when they asked Bill Gates about it.

   28. TDTim Dillon34:34

       Yeah.

   29. JRJoe Rogan34:35

       And he's like, "Well, he's dead now."

   30. TDTim Dillon34:36

       (laughs)
