    (drum roll) Joe Rogan podcast,…

    1. JR

      (drum roll) Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.

    2. NA

      The Joe Rogan Experience. (energetic music) Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night. All day. How many times have you smoked a cigar?

    3. TV

      I don't know if I've smoked one before.

    4. JR

      (laughs)

    5. TV

      Can we open that again one more time? Sorry about ...

    6. JR

      How ... Just, just pull it down. Yeah, lift, flip the top.

    7. TV

      Oh, okay, yeah.

    8. JR

      There you go. And then pull that do- ... There you go.

    9. TV

      Yeah. (cigarette hisses) (lighter clicks)

    10. JR

      How would you not know whether or not you've smoked a cigar.

    11. TV

      Well, I used to work at this business company, I worked at this insurance company. I did paperwor- ... Uh, not paperwork, but I, like, mailed papers for them. And, um, like, mailings, I guess. I guess that's paperwork.

    12. JR

      Yeah.

    13. TV

      And the man had a lot of nice cigars in there.

    14. JR

      And you may or may not have smoked one?

    15. TV

      I feel like he tried to teach me one time. Oh, I feel my heart shuttin'. (laughs)

    16. JR

      (laughs)

    17. TV

      Is that always like it is?

    18. JR

      I ... Don't ... No. No, your heart doesn't shut. (laughs)

    19. TV

      Oh, shit, fuck it. (laughs)

    20. JR

      I think it's the smelling salts. We just tried a new batch of the smelling salts.

    21. TV

      Oh, yeah.

    22. JR

      Last time I did smelling salts, first time was with you, right?

    23. TV

      Mm-hmm.

    24. JR

      And we just got a new batch and it was way stronger 'cause we did one with Red Band and it was old.

    25. TV

      Yeah.

    26. JR

      It was the old ones, and they get weak after a while. But that one was a freshie. Like, we pulled the tab off the top and took a hit of it, and (sniffs) whoo, it just burned all my nostril hairs off.

    27. TV

      Oh, man. It felt like somebody was fucking playing Legend of Zelda in my lungs, bro.

    28. JR

      (laughs)

    29. TV

      This shit was fucking really ... It goes al- ... It goes ... It doesn't even hit your lungs. I feel like it goes through, just into everything else almo- ... It, like ... (sniffs)

    30. JR

      It does a lot.

  2. 15:0030:00

    That's all real? …

    1. TV

      it, move it, move it. Watch out, come on, come on. (gun firing) Okay, make it- Oh, shit.

    2. That's all real?

    3. JR

      Yeah. That's all real.

    4. NA

      I thought that was an off-duty cop that was getting his hair cut.

    5. JR

      Is that what it is?

    6. NA

      That's what the article I founded it says.

    7. JR

      Well, he's got perfect technique. Crazy.

    8. NA

      Speaking of that, that shooting that happened at the mall?

    9. JR

      Yes.

    10. NA

      Did you hear about that?

    11. TV

      Oh.

    12. JR

      Yes, the shooting that happened at the mall, uh, h- what's, what's ... This is one of those crazy situations where an armed good guy stopped a bad guy from killing a bunch of people. This guy shows up at the mall. Kills ... Sh- pulls out a gun, kills two people, and within seconds this happens. This guy reaches into his, uh, pushes his girlfriend aside, reaches into his waist, pulls out his gun, and shoots at this guy from 40 yards away.

    13. TV

      No.

    14. JR

      10 shots, hits him eight times.

    15. TV

      Is that pretty far?

    16. JR

      It's pretty far. For a pistol, that's far. That's far. That's like a, that's like a good shot with a arrow.

    17. TV

      Wow.

    18. JR

      Like a bow and arrow is 40 yards is a ... That's a fucking poke. And for you to do this under pressure and to take a life, and he hit him eight times. Uh, he could shoot. That's ... He's a 22-year-old man. And of course, the NRA has jumped all over this and they've said, uh, you know, "Hey, this is one of those examples where a good guy with a gun kills a bad guy." That, right, what you just saw is another one of those examples.

    19. TV

      Yeah.

    20. JR

      It does happen. And the problem is people don't want to admit that that happens 'cause it doesn't fit with their narrative. This is one of the things that always happens when there's a hot topic, whether it's, uh, gun control or what- whatever it is, where y- you have a very specific idea of what you think the problem is and what you think the solution is. And a lot of people think the problem is guns. The solution is take all the guns. And, you know, some people say, "No, the solution is you should be armed and be prepared to take care of things-"

    21. TV

      Mm-hmm.

    22. JR

      "... if something goes wrong, you should be trained and you should be prepared to use your gun." And in this case, that is the correct answer, uh, in this case.

    23. NA

      I think that's the right angle-

    24. TV

      (clears throat)

    25. NA

      ... he had in that video.

    26. TV

      Oh, is that a Jason's Deli?

    27. JR

      Yeah. So-

    28. NA

      Where the shooting was, was right there. The guy who got shot.

    29. JR

      Yeah, so now-

    30. TV

      Wow.

  3. 30:0045:00

    Oh. …

    1. JR

      it, but he's got to.

    2. Oh.

    3. God, dammit. But he won't, not yet. "I won't. I won't."

    4. Ah, the wolf left him.

    5. He's got willpower.

    6. That wolf just bit some thot outside, you heard it?

    7. (laughs)

    8. NA

      Just the end where he turns into the vampire. Wanna see that?

    9. JR

      Sure. Oh, wait a minute.

    10. NA

      It's bad.

    11. JR

      Back it up a little bit. Back it up a little bit.So, they come in. So, he's hugging her, he loves her.

    12. TV

      Oh.

    13. JR

      He's so sad. Oh, he was biting her and then they come in.

    14. NA

      Mina.

    15. JR

      She's been bit.

    16. NA

      You think you can destroy me? Your heart will not hide.

    17. TV

      Damn. Satan was the biggest enemy back then.

    18. JR

      Yeah, the fucking crucifix didn't even work on him. Look at that.

    19. NA

      I who commanded nations hundreds of years before you. Your armies were defeated.

    20. TV

      That's Anthony Hopkins.

    21. JR

      So, he must have, uh... What has he got in that glass he's holding up?

    22. TV

      I don't know.

    23. JR

      Is that holy water?

    24. TV

      I guess.

    25. NA

      Look what your god has done to me.

    26. JR

      I forgot about this scene.

    27. NA

      No, your war with God is over. You must make peace.

    28. TV

      Lookit, that guy is holding up a fucking gin and tonic towards him. Oh, he threw the, he threw the water at him. The holy water. Keanu Reeves already has white hair because he's been freaking out. It's the same defense for an exorcism, it seems like, right?

    29. JR

      Holy water?

    30. TV

      I mean, if just-

  4. 45:001:00:00

    A mild veterinary thing.…

    1. TV

      on the way home, they would dump the animals. And they dumped them in our neighborhood.

    2. JR

      A mild veterinary thing. That's-

    3. TV

      Well, you know.

    4. JR

      ... a serial killer.

    5. TV

      Like a (laughs) in between type of deal.

    6. JR

      Yeah.

    7. TV

      You know, some guy who's not sanctioned, but he's fucking, you know.

    8. JR

      Not quite committed to, like, migrant workers-

    9. TV

      (laughs)

    10. JR

      ... killing migrant workers yet.

    11. TV

      Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    12. JR

      He's just working his way up to human beings.

    13. TV

      Yeah, I mean, however you wanna look at it, man. But I think this, uh ... But they kept throwing anyway, so we'd call the government and be like, "Come get these fucking bones outta here." 'Cause you know, there'd be kids out there fucking playing with them, you know. You got kids out there beating each other with damn tibias and fucking humming cocyxes at each other-

    14. JR

      Oh.

    15. TV

      ... and stuff. And you know, 'cause it's in the ditch.

    16. JR

      Right.

    17. TV

      And so, anyway, I- I was never a big fan of government after that, right?

    18. JR

      (laughs) What the fuck-

    19. TV

      And, uh-

    20. JR

      ... did the government ever do with that, with the ditch?

    21. TV

      What'd you ask me about?

    22. JR

      (laughs)

    23. TV

      (laughs) I'm not even joking, man. What would you ask me about?

    24. JR

      I said, what ... We were talking about animal, you were saying, "Animals got left in the ditch." And then you said, "I wasn't a big fan of the government-

    25. TV

      (laughs)

    26. JR

      ... after that." I'm like, how did the government b- 'cause they didn't clean up the animals in the ditch? Is that what it is?

    27. TV

      Yeah.

    28. JR

      Oh, okay.

    29. TV

      And if we'd have been in, living in a fancy neighborhood, they would've come and gotten it.

    30. JR

      Right, they would've taken care of it.

  5. 1:00:001:07:46

    Well, if you're starving,…

    1. TV

    2. JR

      Well, if you're starving, that's free food.

    3. TV

      Yeah.

    4. JR

      And birds? Birds are some of the meanest fucking animals. Have you seen that video that's going around of the bird-

    5. TV

      No.

    6. JR

      ... that's eating an antelope alive? Have you seen that?

    7. TV

      You think they're mean?

    8. JR

      Oh, they're vicious. They're so horri- they're so fucking horrible.

    9. TV

      Why, do you think 'cause they can't be on the ground as much as other animals, easily?

    10. JR

      I just think they're reptiles. They're flying reptiles.

    11. TV

      Are they more reptile?

    12. JR

      Yeah. I mean, what a bird is, is a dinosaur. They're flying dinosaurs.

    13. NA

      This?

    14. JR

      Yeah. Look at this. This eagle is riding this antelope's back and just ... It's got its claws dug into its back-

    15. TV

      Wow.

    16. JR

      ... so you see all the blood pouring off the back.

    17. TV

      No, it's bleeding.

    18. JR

      And it's just digging into its body, 'cause those claws, the talons that an eagle has, are so powerful.... so it's just riding this thing and then eating out of its ribcage-

    19. TV

      (gasps)

    20. JR

      ... while it's just slowly dying. And that, that antelope can't do a goddamn thing to get away. There's nothing it could do.

    21. TV

      It's like one of those moving buffets that you're at. You ever been to one of those? One of those-

    22. JR

      Oh, God, that's

    23. NA

      Oh.

    24. TV

      ... where the food moves by as you're eating it?

    25. JR

      I got another video. I'll send you this, Jamie. Of this, uh, there's a, a hawk that's eating a crow. It holds the crow down and the th- the crazy thing is it's not much smaller than the crow. Which is, or not much larger, rather, than the crow, which is wild 'cause it's just, it's just chewing this fucking thing apart.

    26. TV

      Oh, I saw a bear climb into a tree yesterday. I put it on my IG story and it was a bear.

    27. NA

      Did you see it?

    28. JR

      Joe, is that it?

    29. TV

      No, no, that's not it. I'm gonna sh- send it to you. Oh, I saved it. Here, hold on a second. I actually have the whole video.

    30. NA

      The, uh, bear?
