Protect Our Parks chaos: NYC politics, corruption, and the “new mayor” vibe check
- JRJoe Rogan
Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. Hey, we're up and running. To the cuddle party.
- ASAri Shaffir
Cheese. All right.
- MNMark Normand
High five. High five.
- ASAri Shaffir
Hey, hey, comedy.
- JRJoe Rogan
(Uh) There we go, Gil.
- MNMark Normand
Yes, yes.
- JRJoe Rogan
So what are we calling this? Are we calling this Protect Our Parks?
- ASAri Shaffir
No.
- MNMark Normand
I think it's Protect Our Parks.
- ASAri Shaffir
We need a better name.
- MNMark Normand
We didn't do a good job protecting the last one.
- JRJoe Rogan
What happened to the park?
- MNMark Normand
(laughs) It's gone. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Since the podcast.
- MNMark Normand
It's 50 acres just a dirt pile now.
- ASAri Shaffir
Good. That is so crazy that they allowed them to do that, that they just do it ... they just totally did that. You know nobody in the city voted for that.
- MNMark Normand
Not a single person.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
(laughs) I mean, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Fucking evil, man. It's evil.
- MNMark Normand
There's definitely gonna be a, a prison in there or high rises in no time.
- JRJoe Rogan
What is the general consensus about the new mayor of New York?
- ASAri Shaffir
Oh, it's bad already.
- MNMark Normand
Saw people get mad at him for-
- JRJoe Rogan
Really?
- ASAri Shaffir
I think he seems nice.
- MNMark Normand
I saw people get mad at him for he says, "We had to protect the low-wage employees." 'Cause he's like, "The people at Dunkin' Donuts," and (laughs) he goes, "They're not educated. They're not smart enough to be in a corner office." And everyone's like, "What?"
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, Jesus. (laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- 2:06 – 3:17
Jan 6 jokes, FBI non-answers, and the “use Signal” paranoia spiral
- MNMark Normand
The one-year anniversary of the greatest upset. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Nice. (laughs)
- NANarrator
It was, it was the greatest upset in sports.
- ASAri Shaffir
Oh.
- MNMark Normand
Nobody saw it coming.
- ASAri Shaffir
Ah. Yeah, it was a gift.
- MNMark Normand
Just, they just dethroned Buster Douglas-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
... as the greatest upset.
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
A couple of them climbed that wall pretty good. I mean, it was impressive.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, boy.
- ASAri Shaffir
They were out of shape.
- NANarrator
Those were the feds.
- MNMark Normand
Yeah.
- NANarrator
Oh.
- MNMark Normand
Those were the feds.
- NANarrator
The ones that scaled over the fence.
- JRJoe Rogan
Did you so- fucking see the, uh, the thing where Ted Cruz is grilling that lady from the FBI? And he asks her the whole, the whole ... runs the gamut of, "Were federal agents involved in any viol-"
- MNMark Normand
No, we can't answer that.
- JRJoe Rogan
We can't answer that?
- NANarrator
We can't answer that.
- JRJoe Rogan
"Were federal agents involved in, in, you know, inciting violence or trying to court-"
- MNMark Normand
We can't answer that.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Never saw it?
- MNMark Normand
You should, you should always ans- ask a follow-up question, uh, like, uh, "Is Coke the same as Sprite?" And they'll be like, "No." Like, "Okay, that's your baseline."
- JRJoe Rogan
Right. (laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
So then, what is, "We can't answer this"?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, what does that mean? We can't answer this? Oh, God.
- 3:17 – 4:50
Opting out of the news, MeToo-as-sport riffs, and Sandusky/Penn State dark comedy
- ASAri Shaffir
I don't even watch the news. I haven't seen any news stories since Larry Nassar.
- MNMark Normand
You don't watch it? It's so smart not to.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
Larry Nassar was the great. (laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
I mean, that was the peak. I got out.
- JRJoe Rogan
You saw Nassar and you're like, "I'm done. This is good."
- ASAri Shaffir
Yeah, I got enough.
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
Who watches the news? What is ... There's nothing for me there.
- MNMark Normand
Somehow it involved Me Too and sports was a good combo.
- JRJoe Rogan
True.
- ASAri Shaffir
That's true. That should be a sport.
- MNMark Normand
Me Too.
- ASAri Shaffir
Yeah, the Me Too Olympics.
- MNMark Normand
(laughs) Yeah.
- ASAri Shaffir
What's it called? Uh.
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
What's that university? Penn State? (laughs)
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
They're doing good. Was it Penn State with Sandusky?
- NANarrator
Yeah, it's Sandusky.
- MNMark Normand
Penn State, yeah.
- ASAri Shaffir
That was a-
- MNMark Normand
Yeah, they really let that other guy go, huh? The dead one.
- JRJoe Rogan
Whop-
- NANarrator
Jopa.
- JRJoe Rogan
Jopa.
- MNMark Normand
Jopa. Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
They fucking, "You knew something."
- NANarrator
He died, like, on the spot. He, he got, like, lung cancer and died, like, right away.
- 4:50 – 7:16
Trans prisoners, identity loopholes, and Sex and the City’s “nonbinary standup” scene
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, they're doing that now with, with male prisoners who are-
- ASAri Shaffir
I saw that.
- JRJoe Rogan
... transgender. They're putting them in female prisons. And these ... And a lot of them are, like, guilty of sexual assault, and they're putting them in prison with females who they're raping.
- MNMark Normand
And all they gotta do is say, "Hey."
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, identify as a woman.
- MNMark Normand
Just say you're checking.
- ASAri Shaffir
It's a smart move. I mean, why wouldn't you do that?
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, one, one guy did, and then immediately upon release started identifying as a man again.
- ASAri Shaffir
Damn.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, literally identify as a woman for one second.
- NANarrator
You gotta give that guy some respect.
- MNMark Normand
Yeah, respect.
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, he gamed the system.
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
But the system is really fucking stupid.
- ASAri Shaffir
Yikes.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's such a dumb ... It's like, what a dumb thing this identity politics has, has given us, this ability for a, a sexual offender to just change their gender by saying, "I identify with a woman." You keep your dick, you don't have to get an operation, you don't have to get hormone treatments.
- MNMark Normand
There should be a test. There should be some sort of test, like getting, like get- ... becoming a citizen.
- JRJoe Rogan
Should be a test.
- ASAri Shaffir
What kind of test?
- MNMark Normand
Get to know some stuff about womanhood.
- ASAri Shaffir
Some menstruation stuff.
- JRJoe Rogan
What kind of test?
- MNMark Normand
Yeah.
- ASAri Shaffir
Golden Girls.
- NANarrator
Name a purse. Name three purses.
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- ASAri Shaffir
Yes.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, shit.
- ASAri Shaffir
One Sex and the City character.
- 7:16 – 8:48
What do we name this group? Cuddle Party, Kuks, and other terrible branding ideas
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. So, uh, save our parks or cuddle party, what's the consensus?
- SGShane Gillis
What else, what else can we name it?
- ASAri Shaffir
Oh, we can, we can branch out a little bit.
- JRJoe Rogan
Four cunts?
- ASAri Shaffir
That's not bad, the Four Cunts of the Apocalypse.
- SGShane Gillis
(laughs)
(laughs) Yeah.
- ASAri Shaffir
That's a good name for Sex in the City.
- SGShane Gillis
(gasps)
Yeah.
- ASAri Shaffir
Let's see.
- JRJoe Rogan
Toxic non-gender specific?
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah.
- ASAri Shaffir
Hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
Humans.
- ASAri Shaffir
Non-binary, asexuals, queefs.
- SGShane Gillis
(laughs) Queef, yeah.
- ASAri Shaffir
Hmm.
- SGShane Gillis
I vote no names.
Fuck queefs.
- ASAri Shaffir
Kwiefer Sutherland?
- JRJoe Rogan
You have what?
- SGShane Gillis
No name.
- JRJoe Rogan
No name?
- SGShane Gillis
No name.
- ASAri Shaffir
Like a prince?
- SGShane Gillis
We can't go a name.
- JRJoe Rogan
Just no names for us? Okay.
- SGShane Gillis
We shouldn't name-
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, you know what we could do? We could just-
- 8:48 – 12:26
Jurassic Park nostalgia: real velociraptor size, movie magic, and ‘fat target’ rotations
- ASAri Shaffir
Yeah. Was that the first time a sports team was ever named after a movie?
- SGShane Gillis
I think so. The Raptors, also, was right around then, but it was the first-
It was around Jurassic Park, you're right.
- JRJoe Rogan
Was it really?
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah.
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Do you know that raptors, those raptors are really little? They're not big like that?
- SGShane Gillis
Really?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, yeah. Apparently Steven Speen-... Spielberg was consulting with a dinosaur expert, and he found out, uh, how little the raptors were, and he's like, "That's not gonna work. We need them to be big."
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
So he made them, like, seven feet tall. But real raptors are, like, 24" tall. They're like tiny little things.
- SGShane Gillis
What? Interesting.
- ASAri Shaffir
How-
- SGShane Gillis
How tall are the raptors?
- ASAri Shaffir
Make sure that's true. How tall are the raptors? Hello, Ataru Goog.
- JRJoe Rogan
(clears throat) I don't think they're very big. They're very ferocious.
- ASAri Shaffir
They can open doors.
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah, but they're little.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- SGShane Gillis
Two feet tall.
- ASAri Shaffir
Clever girl.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, that scared... I saw that in the theater, scared the shit out of me.
- MNMark Normand
Oh, my God.
- JRJoe Rogan
I was ten years old.
- SGShane Gillis
What a good movie that was.
- MNMark Normand
Great movie.
- SGShane Gillis
In the theater, when you saw the first dinosaur-
Man.
... and it's like, "What?"
- MNMark Normand
Bro, for real.
- 12:26 – 19:36
Jonah Hill, body commentary etiquette, LASIK wearing off, and future eye-repair science
- SGShane Gillis
I did. I had LASIK.
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
Oh, you did?
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah, it's wearing off.
- MNMark Normand
Ah.
- JRJoe Rogan
What?
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah.
- MNMark Normand
Well, you're aged.
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's wearing off?
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah, I feel it wearing off.
- JRJoe Rogan
What do you mean it's wearing off?
- SGShane Gillis
It's... Seven or eight years ago.
- JRJoe Rogan
LASIK wears off?
- SGShane Gillis
I... I didn't know.
- MNMark Normand
What about the cane? You still got the cane?
- SGShane Gillis
Can't do it again?
I think... I'm hoping he can do it again.
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Woo. You gotta go for a second eyeball surgery?
- SGShane Gillis
I... I had a... I had a cane for the beach.
By the way, that was the first shot. You heard it.
- JRJoe Rogan
What? I thought you did it.
- SGShane Gillis
You did it. You did it.
No, no, no. No, no, no. You said, "Shane, could you read that?" I just asking him legitimately if he could read that or not.
No, that was the first shot.
- MNMark Normand
Oh, is that a picture?
- JRJoe Rogan
No, no, no, Shane.
- SGShane Gillis
I just want to know. You wasn't even close into it.
No, no, no.
- 19:36 – 21:41
HIV origin theories, bushmeat, bat soup, and ‘octopus teacher’ weirdness
- NANarrator
Isn't that an interesting story?
- JRJoe Rogan
They think that one of the ways-
- NANarrator
Hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that, uh, people initially got HIV, and this is very controversial.
- MNMark Normand
Uh-oh.
- JRJoe Rogan
But they think there was guys that were, uh-
- NANarrator
Tell us.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, bushmeat is, uh, a thing in Africa where they'll essentially shoot and kill-
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... anything and sell it as meat because food's scarce.
- NANarrator
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
So they'll occasionally do that to chimpanzees. They'll, they'll shoot chimps and sell chimp meat and eat chimps.
- MNMark Normand
Ah.
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- MNMark Normand
It's like the Wuhan bat.
- JRJoe Rogan
And they think that through cutting a monkey or a gorilla or some chimp, some sort of primate, they got the blood on the knife and cut their finger.
- MNMark Normand
Ah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And that, this is just, I, I think this is just speculation. They don't... I don't think they necessarily have a patient zero in AIDS.
- NANarrator
I'm sticking with fuck the monkey.
- JRJoe Rogan
Fuck the monkey.
- MNMark Normand
Yeah, that's a good story.
- NANarrator
That's what I want to believe.
- JRJoe Rogan
Remember when Chappelle stood on that?
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- MNMark Normand
"Rip your dick off like a celery stalk."
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- NANarrator
Fucking the monkey.
- JRJoe Rogan
"You know how hard it be to fuck a monkey?"
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
That would be pretty hard. (laughs)
- 21:41 – 24:35
Dolphin research goes off the rails: NASA funding, horny dolphins, and drowning jealousy myths
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, John Lilly was, uh-
- NANarrator
Big grizzly man.
- JRJoe Rogan
... doing, uh, he had a, a whole, uh, program doing dolphin research. They were trying to teach dolphins how to talk.
- NANarrator
Mm.
- JRJoe Rogan
And the dolphins kept getting distracted-
- MNMark Normand
Whaming?
- JRJoe Rogan
... because they were horny. Um, so, uh, this lady would just jerk off to dolphins so they'd-
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... participate in the study.
- MNMark Normand
What?
- NANarrator
Getting hard.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, and they found out about that, like, "That's a wrap for your study."
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
"You can't be jerking people off for dolphins."
- MNMark Normand
I feel like it's a win for the dolphins.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- NANarrator
Dude, there's a guy who was fucking dolphins.
- JRJoe Rogan
A dolphin who loved me.
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
NASA-funded project that went wrong. Margaret Lovat in the 1960s was part of a NASA-funded project to communicate with dolphins. Soon she was living with Peter 24 hours a day in a converted house. So, like, the house was-
- NANarrator
Oh, no.
- JRJoe Rogan
... like waist high in water.
- MNMark Normand
Whoa.
- JRJoe Rogan
Uh, Christopher Riley-
- NANarrator
She was whacking them off.
- JRJoe Rogan
... reports an experiment that went tragically wrong.
- MNMark Normand
They died?
- JRJoe Rogan
Tragic because she got to cum.
- NANarrator
Did she die?
- JRJoe Rogan
No, he got to cum.
- 24:35 – 27:17
David Choe in Africa: hunting baboons, Facebook stock luck, and why artists annoy people
- JRJoe Rogan
You know David Choe, the artist?
- MNMark Normand
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, David Choe went to, um, uh, with, with the Hadza. Where, where was that? What part? It was Tanzania? I think it was Tanzania. He went and, uh, hunted baboons. They, uh, they, they eat baboons.
- MNMark Normand
Damn.
Damn, they hunt, uh-
- JRJoe Rogan
And he goes, "It's fucked up." He goes, "'Cause when the baboon gets hit with the arrow, he grabs it like a person."
- MNMark Normand
Ah, yeah.
- NANarrator
(groans)
- MNMark Normand
They're fucking terrifying, baboons.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, yeah, because it's, it's really fucked up.
- MNMark Normand
They dress like a baboon?
- JRJoe Rogan
So this is Choe. No, I don't know what they're doing. Is that a- A GoPro and a dog that put on their-
- MNMark Normand
He's got dogs out there.
- NANarrator
Oh, okay.
- JRJoe Rogan
... chasing the baboons.
- MNMark Normand
Look at that, that guy.
This is hell.
- NANarrator
Peephole.
- MNMark Normand
I would never want to do this.
- JRJoe Rogan
So the, these, these-
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
Uh...
- JRJoe Rogan
... folks, they eat everything, right?
- NANarrator
Yep.
- JRJoe Rogan
But they have less game in the area where they live than ever used to be there before, so they find themselves eating a lot of primates.
- MNMark Normand
Man, that guy's living, huh?
- JRJoe Rogan
David, David-
- MNMark Normand
He goes for it.
- JRJoe Rogan
... is so, David Choe is so fucking interesting, 'cause the guy's worth like an, a stupid amount of money.
- MNMark Normand
Is he?
- 27:17 – 32:09
Genital injury war stories: fence-sliced sacks, jiu-jitsu blood, and Rogan’s ‘test it by jerking off’ logic
- MNMark Normand
You know you cut your dick, I cut my sack open on a fence.
- JRJoe Rogan
Ooh.
- NANarrator
Oh.
- MNMark Normand
Saw my ball.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh my God, you saw your ball?
- MNMark Normand
In college.
- JRJoe Rogan
Ooh.
- MNMark Normand
Got, got really drunk at a party, started making out with this girl on the couch.
Oh.
Her boyfriend sees me, he's like, "We're going outside." I was like-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
... "All right, let's do it."
- NANarrator
And you ran? (laughs)
- MNMark Normand
And I ... And then he's like, "Bobby, Jimmy, Mike!" All these guys came out of the woodwork, so I was alone, so I just jumped this fence, straddled it-
(inhales deeply)
... couldn't make it all the way over, fell over the other side, I was hanging by my jeans, the jeans ripped.
- NANarrator
Oh ...
- MNMark Normand
They're all laughing. Ran home, passed out, woke up, sack was torn, blood everywhere.
Oh.
Had to get it stitched up.
- NANarrator
You had to ... What?
- MNMark Normand
Yeah, I had to wear a jockstrap for a month.
Ooh.
And then I had to get the stitches removed.
- NANarrator
Wow.
- MNMark Normand
That guy, that guy owned you, dude.
He really did.
- NANarrator
No.
- 32:09 – 35:45
YouTube retroactive censorship: ‘beer cured my COVID’ and the algorithm vs. humans debate
- JRJoe Rogan
Hey, Shane, tell everybody what we were talking about before this 'cause it is so... I can't believe that this happened.
- ASAri Shaffir
Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
- JRJoe Rogan
But his video got pulled off of YouTube because he simply said-
- MNMark Normand
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that when he had COVID, he just drank beer.
- NANarrator
I said that the way I beat COVID was I just drank beer. That's all I was doing.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's all he said.
- NANarrator
And it w- and it worked and I was healed.
- MNMark Normand
Yeah. Funny. Sure. (laughs)
- NANarrator
And that was... I was just explaining exactly what happened. And the episode got taken down from Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast.
- MNMark Normand
Oh, the whole episode got taken down.
- JRJoe Rogan
Just imagine-
- NANarrator
It le- it got deleted.
- JRJoe Rogan
... how fucking insane that is.
- NANarrator
Like six months later.
- ASAri Shaffir
That's so silly, yeah.
- MNMark Normand
Yeah. It's a little bit frightening.
- JRJoe Rogan
Imagine how insane that is. They're going through old podcasts.
- NANarrator
They really are, which is crazy.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yiana- Yiannis Krampus just got hit with one from six months ago, he told me. They gave him a strike. He can't post to his account right now.
- MNMark Normand
Oh, we're gonna lose all sorts of stuff.
- ASAri Shaffir
I know.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's just like, what are you doing? Like, why? What's the point? Like, y- y- you looking at what these guys are saying, like, what is... this is fun. It's like no one's getting hurt from any of this.
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
If anybody's getting infla- like, this is the whole thing. It's like you're not supposed to have, like, COVID, uh, misinformation or anything that doesn't go along with the lines, you're given some instructions. But that's not what you're doing. You're talking shit. If anybody was like, "Well, I was gonna get vaccinated, but then I saw Shane."
- MNMark Normand
"Drank beer."
- NANarrator
(laughs) Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
"And he drank beer. So I'm like, I'm gonna fucking drink beer too, bro."
- NANarrator
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, is that really... Is that a real thing?
- 35:45 – 43:45
Longevity ‘secrets’: Big Macs, gin-soaked raisins, and why living to 117 sounds awful
- JRJoe Rogan
106-year-old Philadelphia woman is a big fan of Big Macs.
- NANarrator
This is... See-
- MNMark Normand
Yeah.
- NANarrator
This is more hurtful to people's health than saying like-
- JRJoe Rogan
That's so crazy.
- MNMark Normand
Yeah.
- NANarrator
... maybe the vax is dangerous.
- JRJoe Rogan
I know. That, that should be medical misinformation.
- NANarrator
I'm interested. Be like, "Crush Big Macs. You're gonna age 106."
- JRJoe Rogan
She said it ke-
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
She said it kept her free of disease.
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- MNMark Normand
That's back when Big Mac started, when they were made with actual meat.
- JRJoe Rogan
She credits junk food for her long life. Her granddaughter said that maybe her lengthy lifespan has to do with the nine gin-soaked raisins she ate every day too.
- MNMark Normand
Gin-soaked raisins.
- ASAri Shaffir
Whoa.
- JRJoe Rogan
Gin-soaked raisins.
- ASAri Shaffir
Queen Elizabeth did the same thing.
- JRJoe Rogan
What kind of a weirdo lady is this?
- NANarrator
What... Yeah.
- MNMark Normand
What if it says not eating junk food?
- NANarrator
Refugee.
- JRJoe Rogan
South Philly. Which that, Jamie?
- ASAri Shaffir
It says, "Not eating junk food."
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, not eating junk food. But cheeseburgers.
- ASAri Shaffir
I know, that's why it's stuck... I don't know.
- JRJoe Rogan
What the fuck does that mean? She's a liar. She's got dementia.
- ASAri Shaffir
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
That's, that's what kept her alive, dementia.
- 43:45 – 52:20
Animal fighting and bull stunts: dogfighting lore, cockfights, bull-leaping acrobatics, and bubble-suit carnage
- JRJoe Rogan
If, if you're out there listening and you're gonna get a German shepherd as a pet, you better be willing to work with that dog.
- MNMark Normand
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
You gotta, you gotta exercise that dog. Take it on runs, do things with it. You can't just leave a dog like that in the yard, they'll go crazy.
- SGShane Gillis
And we know you're not willing to do that work.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, so-
- MNMark Normand
Hear that, Michael Vick?
- SGShane Gillis
... don't get one.
- JRJoe Rogan
Ge- get a little poodle, bitch.
- SGShane Gillis
No, Michael Vick worked those boys.
- MNMark Normand
Did he? Oh, I guess-
- SGShane Gillis
He worked the hell out of those dogs.
- MNMark Normand
They were fighting? Yeah. (laughs)
- SGShane Gillis
They were, baby. Dogs are probably having a little bit of fun.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, yeah.
- SGShane Gillis
You should've seen his, his dog record was, like-
- MNMark Normand
He's a good dog wender. Hell, yeah.
- SGShane Gillis
... '86 and 14.
- MNMark Normand
(laughs)
- SGShane Gillis
Like-
- JRJoe Rogan
His record was good?
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah. He was, like, great.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know what's fucked, is with that-
- SGShane Gillis
Underrated, hall of fame. He's in the hall of fame of dog fighting.
- MNMark Normand
I gotta get some new references.
- SGShane Gillis
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
There's this, like, a silent group of people that are involved in dog fights, that have been involved in dog fights for a long time. And that sort of exposed what that whole-
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah.
- MNMark Normand
Ah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... community is all about. Because there's a lot of dog fighting going on in parts of this country. Um, there's a guy that I knew, um, well, I know him, but he, at one point in time used to fight dogs. And he lived in, somewhere in the South.
- SGShane Gillis
Yeah, the South loves it.

Fear Factor behind-the-scenes: network-approved gross-outs, chain-wallet Rogan, and coaching people into chaos
- ASAri Shaffir
How much of a nightmare was Fear Factor?
- JRJoe Rogan
Um.
- ASAri Shaffir
To do?
- JRJoe Rogan
It was... Well, we did a, a bull riding thing once, and during the bull riding, there was... There's only two times in the history of the show where I told them, "Don't do it." I said, "Don't do this. Don't do it." And that was a big one. They go, "Well, this guy was a stunt guy." Those stunt guys are... They're fucking... They're different humans.
- ASAri Shaffir
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're so used to getting hurt. They're so used to, like, just being brave and taking wild chances that the stunt guy literally said this to me. He goes, "Ah, don't worry about it, boo. Those are stunt bulls."
- ASAri Shaffir
Mm.
- JRJoe Rogan
I go, "Stunt bulls?" Like, does that bull know he's a stunt bull? (laughs) I bet he thinks he's a fucking bull. Like, "What are you talking about, man? It's a stunt bull."
- ASAri Shaffir
What is a stunt bull? (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
He knows. This thing was, like, 2,000 pounds, and it's in the cage. Bang, bang. Bang, bang.
- ASAri Shaffir
Oh, God.
- JRJoe Rogan
And they strapped a 98-pound girl to that thing. What? And I was like, "You guys are out of your fucking mind."
- ASAri Shaffir
What?
- JRJoe Rogan
They strapped a lady to a rodeo bull?
- ASAri Shaffir
Oh.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs) Guys, you have to understand, we don't joke about each other.
- ASAri Shaffir
How much of a nightmare was Fear Factor-

Um-
