Hi.

Hi.
- JRJoe Rogan
What's happening?
- SWSara Weinshenk
What's up?
- JRJoe Rogan
Good to see you. Class of, uh, zero ... What, what number were you guys of, of Tony, Kill Tony? You guys are class of one-
- KCKim Congdon
We were-
- JRJoe Rogan
Class of zero to one.
- KCKim Congdon
OGs, yeah. OGs.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, the real OGs.
- KCKim Congdon
Yep.
- JRJoe Rogan
Isn't it wild to see what it's become now?
- KCKim Congdon
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
I mean, it's literally like the number one live comedy show ever.
- SWSara Weinshenk
It's insane.
- KCKim Congdon
It's insane. We started so long ago. That's where we met, her and I.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Yeah, we've met-
- KCKim Congdon
And we've been working together ever since.
- JRJoe Rogan
Besties.
- KCKim Congdon
Yeah, so, uh-
- JRJoe Rogan
I've said it before but I'll say it again, Tony's the greatest host of any comedy show ever.
- KCKim Congdon
I know.
- JRJoe Rogan
He's the best.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Yeah, he does really good. Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Nobody's better off the cuff.
- KCKim Congdon
I know. Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Off the cuff?
- SWSara Weinshenk
Amazing. He's so fast, he's so quick. And you know, we l- owe a lot to him, I feel like, because he really helped us get our start. We learned a lot from being on that show.
- 15:00 – 30:00
Yeah. …
- JRJoe Rogan
- SWSara Weinshenk
Yeah.
- KCKim Congdon
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Don't do that. Don't do that.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Yeah.
- KCKim Congdon
Don't do-
- SWSara Weinshenk
No, I didn't do one Zoom show.
- JRJoe Rogan
Geez.
- SWSara Weinshenk
I did one Zoom show, and, um, I think about it every now and then. It haunts me.
- KCKim Congdon
It was like, I was just like, "Why are we doing this?" This is, it's too much.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's too weird.
- KCKim Congdon
If we're all stuck, we're, let's not do standup then for a little bit. How about that?
- JRJoe Rogan
But it was such junkies though.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know what the weirdest thing was?
- KCKim Congdon
What?
- JRJoe Rogan
Late night talk shows where they're doing it from their webcam. With like-
- KCKim Congdon
Oh, and nobody was laughing?
- JRJoe Rogan
No one was laughing.
- SWSara Weinshenk
(laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
It's so nuts.
- KCKim Congdon
I was like, "Why are we watching this?"
- JRJoe Rogan
It's like someone practicing new jokes. It's like if you had a friend who wanted to just, "Hey, wanna run some ideas by you?"
- SWSara Weinshenk
No. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
And s- I would let them.
- SWSara Weinshenk
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
You wouldn't do that for your friend?
- SWSara Weinshenk
If it was my friend.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, a comic friend.
- 30:00 – 45:00
(laughs) …
- KCKim Congdon
co-host, our guest, all the producers, and then while we were smoking it, like before the joint was even done, I was like, "I'm done." And then I was like, "We should do a new segment and we should rap."
- SWSara Weinshenk
(laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
And everybody was like, "What?" And I was like, "We should, like, start rap... I think it would be a good idea if we started, we became like a rap thing."
- SWSara Weinshenk
(laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
And then I just started going off about rap, and I was, like, going crazy. And then when we got on, I was like, "We have to start the show now because we have to do this thing before the idea goes." And I started getting crazy.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
And then we're... And then I'm, like, breathing all heavy and my heart's racing, and one of the producers who is like... does a lot of drugs literally said into the mic, "I'm the highest I've ever been." And then that's when it hit me that I was, like, the weed, like there was... "This is not me." Like I realized something happened and we were on air already.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- KCKim Congdon
I was pulling up rap lyrics-
- SWSara Weinshenk
(laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
... and dancing to them. And... (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
It's those w- those joints that they sprinkle the THC crystals on.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Oh.
- KCKim Congdon
No, I know exactly what it was.
- JRJoe Rogan
What was it?
- KCKim Congdon
Ugh, okay. I... after I came down and had them almost call an ambulance on-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
...'cause then I freaked out on the podcast, I cried. I was like sh- I was... We were looking up the syns- symptoms of fentanyl on the podcast. (laughs)
- SWSara Weinshenk
No.
- KCKim Congdon
Yes. Because I was like-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh my god.
- KCKim Congdon
... "It could be fentanyl. I've never felt like this on weed." And then I looked at the bag and there was a little bit of cocaine in the bag that he sold me the weed in, so I had smoked-
- SWSara Weinshenk
Crack, basically.
- KCKim Congdon
... crack. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Whoa.
- SWSara Weinshenk
(laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
And did a podcast.
- SWSara Weinshenk
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
So-
- KCKim Congdon
A full podcast trying to be a rapper.
- 45:00 – 1:00:00
But I guess- …
- KCKim Congdon
But I guess-
- JRJoe Rogan
There's some weird, no reason at all that I can discern of.
- KCKim Congdon
Yes.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, you get that feeling sometimes?
- KCKim Congdon
Yes.
- JRJoe Rogan
I think those are real feelings.
- KCKim Congdon
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
I think there's something there that's, uh, non-verbal. Some, some fucking thing that they're giving off, and you're picking up on it.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Yeah.
- KCKim Congdon
And then you trick yourself into thinking it was just you being like ... You're like, "I might be in a mood." And then-
- JRJoe Rogan
And then you tri-
- KCKim Congdon
... you, like, brush it off.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. You could do that.
- KCKim Congdon
Then they kill you, and you're like, "Damn it."
- JRJoe Rogan
Or you could, you could try it again and say-
- KCKim Congdon
I trust my gut.
- JRJoe Rogan
... "Maybe that person was having a rough day." You know?
- SWSara Weinshenk
True. I trust my gut.
- JRJoe Rogan
You should trust your gut. But you could run into someone that just got in a car accident. That's the thing.
- KCKim Congdon
Yikes.
- JRJoe Rogan
When, when things happen like that and people get ramped up ...
- GUGuest
(laughs) Yikes.
- JRJoe Rogan
No, no. When people get ramped up. It's like that's why road rage exists, because everyone's ramped up, right? You're on the, in the car, you have to think fast 'cause you're going fast.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
And then someone's cutting you, and you're like, "You motherfucker." Like, 'cause you're, 'cause you're already ramped up.
- KCKim Congdon
Yeah.
- SWSara Weinshenk
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
So, sometimes you could run into someone, and like some guy just fucking T-boned him, ran a red light, and screamed at him, and there's a lot of shit going on, and the cops didn't help. And then you meet that person, and they could be too ramped up.
- KCKim Congdon
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And you're like, "That guy's ... I think that guy fucking hates me." Like, "That guy hates everyone right now." He's like-
- 1:00:00 – 1:04:24
That's what people should…
- GUGuest
That's what people should do, movie hybrids.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs) Yeah. That's like Alien versus Predator.
- GUGuest
Yeah. (laughs)
- KCKim Congdon
(sighs) Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
So this... The one where he got electrocuted, what kind of powers did he... Oh, he became super smart, right? I think he was like a regular dude and then he got electrocuted-
- KCKim Congdon
And then he was in a bubble.
- JRJoe Rogan
... and became super smart.
- GUGuest
Oh.
- KCKim Congdon
Remember the bubble boy?
- GUGuest
But that was early... That came out the same year, that's probably why.
Phenomenon and Michael?
- JRJoe Rogan
And Michael '96.
- GUGuest
'96. They both came out.
- JRJoe Rogan
'96. So what was the story of Phenomenon? He became super smart, right?... is that the premise?
- GUGuest
I think he had powers of some kind.
- JRJoe Rogan
I think they have powers and super strength.
- NANarrator
He sees a flash of light.
- JRJoe Rogan
Uh, but he got hit by a lightning.
- NANarrator
It says he sees a flash of light. I don't know.
- JRJoe Rogan
It doesn't say it?
- GUGuest
He becomes a genius.
- JRJoe Rogan
He sees a flash... He sees and exhibits extraordinary mental abilities. He becomes a genius. He becomes a genius. This is what everybody wants. Nobody wants to, like, work really hard to be a genius. Everybody wants to just get hit by lightning.
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
It's the perfect movie for-
- GUGuest
This was my mom's favorite movie when I was a kid, Phenomenon.
- JRJoe Rogan
For people who lived in the '90s, this is the perfect movie.
- GUGuest
I have never seen or heard of this movie.
This was my mom's favorite movie when I was a kid (laughs) .
My mom's was Titanic.
- JRJoe Rogan
Listen, you got a beautiful handsome man, uh, who's-
