What's happening with you, Joe?
- JRJoe Rogan
Good to see you, my friend.
- TWTony Woods
Man, I'm glad you have me back, dog.
- JRJoe Rogan
I'm glad you came back.
- TWTony Woods
(laughs) You know-
- JRJoe Rogan
It was good seeing you last night.
- TWTony Woods
... 'cause I was like, uh... 'Cause somebody said, "Hey, Joe got a new club." I was like, "You do?" And just... I, I just sent you a text like, "Hey, man, let me do your club."
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- TWTony Woods
And you hit me back, "Okay." I'm like, "Well, all right. Well, what's up?" (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Oh, I'm excited. This weekend.
- TWTony Woods
Yes.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's gonna be fun.
- TWTony Woods
It is, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
You're gonna love it.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah, well, th- you got... You done put the village right down here in Texas, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- TWTony Woods
Like, like, back in the day when they had the comedy club here-
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- TWTony Woods
... come... We'd go to the Boston Comedy Club, go to Celtic, go to, duh, duh, duh, duh. All of that. That's how it is. It's just bouncing around. So...
- JRJoe Rogan
(sighs) Yeah, we got five clubs on one street.
- TWTony Woods
Bang. But you got the-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, the Mothership.
- TWTony Woods
... you got the Madison Square Garden.
- JRJoe Rogan
We got the Mothership.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah, you got the Mothership. I said (laughs) ... I said to somebody... I said, "I'm going to Austin to do the Mothership." He says, "Wow, that's gonna be a long flight. You flying through Boston to go to Africa?" I'm like, "No."
- JRJoe Rogan
What? (laughs)
- TWTony Woods
Yeah. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- 15:00 – 30:00
(laughs) …
- JRJoe Rogan
You, you have to be the craziest psychopath of all time. You're lighting the woods on fire-
- TWTony Woods
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
... to get rid of some chemicals.
- TWTony Woods
I'm think, I'm thinking maybe it wasn't their woods that they set on fire.
- JRJoe Rogan
Somebody else's woods.
- TWTony Woods
Someon- no. Someone else from somewhere else.
- JRJoe Rogan
Someone set someone-
- TWTony Woods
Some... Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, maybe.
- TWTony Woods
We'll get those motherfuckers. Yeah. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Right. But why the chemicals? That's the question. Like, if it is the chemicals, what kind of, uh, conspiracy is that? Go to 4Chan.
- GUGuest
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
They know.
- TWTony Woods
Wasn't, wasn't it near where the balloon was?
- GUGuest
I think, yeah.
- TWTony Woods
Remember the balloon?
- JRJoe Rogan
The balloon was like-
- TWTony Woods
It w- it was right in that area.
- JRJoe Rogan
Where was the balloon flying over?
- GUGuest
There was a few places.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- GUGuest
There's nor-... It started in the northwest and started making it across the country I think, right?
- JRJoe Rogan
They said they had a bunch of those while, while Trump was in office and they didn't tell him about it-
- GUGuest
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... 'cause they were worried he was gonna shoot them down. (laughs)
- TWTony Woods
(laughs)
- GUGuest
Well, they also showed that laser, that footage of that laser shooting down on like the Hawaiian coastline.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, what was that?
- GUGuest
That makes me think of the fires, just like if whatever that is-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, God.
- 30:00 – 45:00
Yeah. …
- JRJoe Rogan
So are there lions like that right now that are there? See if you can find like male lions out there with no manes. Wow.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's interesting.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
I didn't know that existed.
- TWTony Woods
Why, have you guys been watching, uh, Chimp Empire?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yes.
- TWTony Woods
Man, that is the-
- JRJoe Rogan
I have the guy in it who directed it.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah, that is, well, how did it, how many years did that take?
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, look at them. Oh, well here's the deal. They had set up, uh, scientists had set up research there 30 years ago.
- TWTony Woods
Wow.
- JRJoe Rogan
So they had been continually studying these chimps, and they had like very specific rules of engagement. You can't ever eat in front of them. You can't be closer than 20 feet.... or was it 20 yards? 20 yards. You keep them closer-
- TWTony Woods
Well, they were actually-
- JRJoe Rogan
... than 20 yards.
- TWTony Woods
They were cam-
- JRJoe Rogan
They were right there with them. So they're right there with these chimps-
- TWTony Woods
Oh.
- JRJoe Rogan
... man. And so they're, like, filming everything and the chimps get accustomed to the people being there because the people never interact with the chimps.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And if the chimps walk towards the people, the people just back away. And, again, you can never eat in front of them.
- TWTony Woods
No.
- JRJoe Rogan
Ever.
- TWTony Woods
I tell you-
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause they just steal your food and fuck you up.
- TWTony Woods
What blew me away was when they ate monkeys.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, yeah.
- TWTony Woods
I was like, "Dude, that's... Okay." (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
They eat a lot of monkeys.
- TWTony Woods
(laughs) It was like... Yeah. Yeah.
- 45:00 – 1:00:00
Yeah. …
- GUGuest
yeah.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
I never watched that show. I heard it's really good.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah. When, when you hear his voice, you gonna go, "Oh, shit." See, look at Johnny.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, look at that.
- TWTony Woods
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
They were funny together, man.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Red Johnny, the round guy, was... It was a funny combination too.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah. "If I knew it was gonna be this type of party."
- JRJoe Rogan
(groans)
- TWTony Woods
Remember they used to say that?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. It's funny when you, uh, know guys as long as we have.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know?
- TWTony Woods
Yeah, look at them.
- JRJoe Rogan
Look at them. Kids. I mean, Tony, I've known you for, like, 30 years.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah, but I was-
- JRJoe Rogan
Isn't that wild?
- TWTony Woods
Uh, what was... When I first came to New York, what was it? Uh, '91. I just... '91, I had just come... I just-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- TWTony Woods
... got released from the military. And I... And that one week I did Caroline's Comedy Hour and Def Jam.
- JRJoe Rogan
Wow.
- TWTony Woods
And I was like, "Boy, this Caroline's is gonna work out for me." (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- TWTony Woods
I had no idea Def Jam was gonna blow like that, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- TWTony Woods
Uh, so... And I... Well, yeah, speaking of animals, I had done something on Showtime. It's called the Leslie Nielsen National Lampoon Comedy Playoffs. Right? And it was... They pick a comedian from all over the country, go out to Vegas. We stayed in the Sahara Hotel. Because my last name is Woods, I had a suite. So, the, the other guys had a regular room, but I had... I had a suite. And, um... But on that show I tell a joke about Bigfoot. And I never saw Bigfoot, but I was... We would tr- We were on training. You do these training where you go make maps and all this shit. And we heard him.
- JRJoe Rogan
You heard Bigfoot?
- TWTony Woods
Heard Bigfoot. I heard him.
- 1:00:00 – 1:09:28
Whoa. …
- GUGuest
but you're gonna have to figure out how to balance again 'cause it makes up a point of balance for you.
- TWTony Woods
Whoa.
- JRJoe Rogan
Wow.
- TWTony Woods
Remember the Pope of Greenwich Village?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, I do.
- TWTony Woods
He said, "May- (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
"I cut my thumbs off, Charlie."
- TWTony Woods
... fuck you!" (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
"Charlie."
- TWTony Woods
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
"They cut my thumbs, Charlie."
- TWTony Woods
(laughs) That was-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- TWTony Woods
... good acting right there.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, my God, that movie was amazing.
- TWTony Woods
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Jon Jones fucked his, his, uh, big toe up in a fight with Chael Sonnen. He beat the shit outta Chael Sonnen, and then got up and was doing the post-fight interview and looked down and saw that his toe was, like, flipped upside down.
- TWTony Woods
Oh.
- JRJoe Rogan
His big toe was. And-
- TWTony Woods
Well, did he faint?
- JRJoe Rogan
No, no, he... we got him, we sat him down. He's like, "Oh, boy." And I continued to interview him.
- TWTony Woods
Wait, hold up, like, like this.
- JRJoe Rogan
His toe had flipped around.
- TWTony Woods
This?
- JRJoe Rogan
His toe had flipped around because that's how much pressure he was putting into trying to beat-
- TWTony Woods
Motherfucker.
- JRJoe Rogan
... Chael Sonnen up. Like, uh, yeah, his toe was fucked up.
- TWTony Woods
Ah.
- JRJoe Rogan
So we got him to sit down.
- TWTony Woods
You can see, ooh, ooh, mama.
