- NANarrator
(drumming music) Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
- JRJoe Rogan
Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. (rock music) Yo, bro, what's happening, my brother?
- PMPost Malone
I'm hanging out.
- JRJoe Rogan
Dude, you look fucking great. I told you that when I saw you-
- PMPost Malone
Thank you, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
... but I wanna tell you that on air. You look fucking great, man.
- PMPost Malone
Thank you, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
You said you lost 60...
- PMPost Malone
Like 6... I was like 240, now I'm like 185.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's amazing.
- PMPost Malone
Yes, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
And you did it just by cutting out soda-
- PMPost Malone
Yeah. I don't drink.
- JRJoe Rogan
... and a lot of shows.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah, like shows, soda. Soda's so bad.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's so bad. (laughs)
- PMPost Malone
It's so bad. But it's so good. I'll have a soda. I'm a bad boy and I'll have a Monster Energy.
- JRJoe Rogan
Every now and then.
- PMPost Malone
But Celsius is so good too. Have you had one of those?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, I have. They're good.
- PMPost Malone
It's so good.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. The, the key to those things is just every now and then. That's the thing.
- PMPost Malone
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, every now and then you reward yourself with a Coca-Cola.
- PMPost Malone
Yes, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
You're like, "Ah, this is nice."
- PMPost Malone
Oh, man, and these hot Texas days.
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- 0:56 – 6:06
Tour life highs: Texas shows, Brazil memories, and why South American crowds feel different
- PMPost Malone
I've been here, we did Dallas two days yesterday, back-to-back. Yesterday and the night before.
- JRJoe Rogan
I'm coming to see you tomorrow night.
- PMPost Malone
Let's go.
- JRJoe Rogan
I'm coming to Houston.
- PMPost Malone
Let's go.
- JRJoe Rogan
Let's go.
- PMPost Malone
Did we... Did you buy tickets?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
Aw, Joe, you didn't have to do that.
- JRJoe Rogan
Ah, man.
- PMPost Malone
'Cause if you said, if you said, "We hooked you up." I would've said, like, "What the hell? I didn't hook you up."
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- PMPost Malone
But since you said you bought 'em, thank you so much for coming to Rogan.
- JRJoe Rogan
You're my pleasure. You're my pleasure. I'm excited.
- PMPost Malone
Me too, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
I'm excited, man. I'm excited to see you.
- PMPost Malone
But, yeah, especially out in this heat, dude. Just like, you know what? I had a great show. You know what? I'm feeling a little bit naughty.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
I'm gonna have myself a Coke on ice.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
So good.
- JRJoe Rogan
Reward yourself. The problem is when people do it all day, every day.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's when it's just... Your body doesn't know what to do with that kinda sugar-
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... because it's so unnatural. Your body never gets sugar like that in the wild. You get sugar in fruit. You know, when you have like a glass of sugar water, it's just pouring right into your bloodstream. Your body's like, "What the fuck is this?"
- PMPost Malone
I like, I like guaraná.
- JRJoe Rogan
Ooh, that's good stuff.
- PMPost Malone
That is crazy stuff.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Yeah.
- 6:06 – 8:51
From Stone Temple Pilots to Queens of the Stone Age: musicianship, identity, and AI’s “robot songs”
- PMPost Malone
Another band with Stone, I wa- uh...It's Queens of the Stone Age is who I want to sound like.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, those guys are great.
- PMPost Malone
I, I wanna see them so bad.
- JRJoe Rogan
I, I have not seen them live-
- PMPost Malone
Me either.
- JRJoe Rogan
... but I had Josh on the show. He's awesome.
- PMPost Malone
How was he?
- JRJoe Rogan
Very cool guy.
- PMPost Malone
Yes, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
Very... Well, we had a good friend in Bourdain.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
He, he was good friends with, uh, Bourdain too. He's a fucking interesting dude, though. Very interesting dude. And their music is fucking-
- PMPost Malone
It's so smart.
- JRJoe Rogan
... so interesting.
- PMPost Malone
It's, yeah, it's so smart, it's-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. It's, it's, it's so distinctive. Like, their music is so distinctive. Like, you hear a song, it sounds like them.
- PMPost Malone
Right, right.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know what I mean?
- PMPost Malone
He's got a voice, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, yeah.
- PMPost Malone
And he can write a hell of a song.
- JRJoe Rogan
Hell of a song.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah. It's just, I don't know. Like, some of the stuff they do, I'm like, "How do you even think of that?"
- JRJoe Rogan
Right.
- PMPost Malone
There's so many artists like that. But I'm like, in that setting, and then that first record with, with Dave, like, just-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
... banging on. Dude, I was... Oh my God, it's so, it's so good.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, it's so good. Well, we're in an amazing time for art. For both music and a lot of other things too. There's just so much good shit out there now.
- PMPost Malone
That's true. But I figured, you know, that the way things are moving, I got like four, five months before people like the robot songs more than-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- 8:51 – 13:15
Gold mines and ancient bone warehouses: the Alaska “Boneyard” rabbit hole
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Um, I have a friend who lives up in Alaska, and he owns a gold mine. Have you ever seen, uh, The Boneyard, um, uh, Instagram page?
- PMPost Malone
No, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's insane. He's got this area in Alaska that apparently there was a mass die-off there that probably had something to do with a comet impact, somewhere around the Younger Dryas period.
- PMPost Malone
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
And there's tons of woolly mammoth bones there.
- PMPost Malone
That's crazy.
- JRJoe Rogan
He has warehouses filled with them.
- PMPost Malone
That's good.
- JRJoe Rogan
And it's all his land. And he's a gold miner. So it's like... And he's wealthy. He doesn't, and he doesn't give a fuck.
- PMPost Malone
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, this guy Jon comes on here smoking cigarettes, telling the story of his life, and he's got warehouses full of priceless stone, uh, you know, bones.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
These fucking ancient, like, uh, cave bear heads and steppe bisons. He's got just-
- PMPost Malone
Oh, that's just a, that's a junk drawer.
- JRJoe Rogan
This is, this is... So this is no- not... Like, the most valuable shit in the world.
- PMPost Malone
That's crazy.
- JRJoe Rogan
And he's got warehouses filled with it.
- PMPost Malone
What is it... Was that an ariak?
- JRJoe Rogan
I don't know. What the fuck that is.
- PMPost Malone
It's, it's like a horned stem...
- JRJoe Rogan
What is that? He's got teeth and horns, and they, they found, uh, certain cats.
- PMPost Malone
Ooh, what is that? Is that a...
- JRJoe Rogan
They don't know what that is yet.
- PMPost Malone
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
They found that. It's mummified. It's a tiny little mummified creature.
- PMPost Malone
Oh, that's one of them Alaskan, uh, chupacabras.
- JRJoe Rogan
Bah.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, they have to, they have to get that examined.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- 13:15 – 17:37
Sharks older than trees, mushroom “intentions,” and the Stoned Ape theory
- JRJoe Rogan
I don't think they grow towards humans, but one of the th- have you ever heard of the stoned ape theory?
- PMPost Malone
No, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- PMPost Malone
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
The stoned ape theory is there's, there's this guy who's this, um, he was an ethnobotanist and, uh, uh, like a psychedelic guru.
- PMPost Malone
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
His name was Terence McKenna. And Terence McKenna had this theory, and it coincides with the, uh, there's a lot of interesting things about it, but it's about the doubling of the human brain size. Apparently, the doubling of the human brain size is the biggest mystery in the entire fossil record.
- PMPost Malone
(clears throat)
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause it, 'cause it happened fairly quickly. It happened over a period of, like, two million years.
- PMPost Malone
I missed that boat.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
I don't think you did, dude. I don't think you did.
- PMPost Malone
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
You're smart as fuck.
- PMPost Malone
Thank you, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
Shut the fuck up.
- PMPost Malone
Thank you, sir. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
But this, this time period was when lower h- so what happened was that the rain- climate changed, and the rainforests receded into grasslands. And so, a lot of these hominids came out of the trees, and they started experimenting with different food sources. Oh, there's, like, a whole, uh, video about it. So these, these mushrooms grew on, on cow shit. So they've observed all these different primates flipping over cow patties and eating beetles and grubs on them.
- PMPost Malone
Sure, sure.
- JRJoe Rogan
And they would probably experiment with the mushrooms that grow on them. And his thought was that mushrooms in low doses increase visual acuity, so it makes you a better hunter.
- PMPost Malone
Sure.
- JRJoe Rogan
It emphasizes a sense of community, so it would make you, like, m- have better tribal interactions. That would be- benefit. It makes people horny. That would benefit breeding. And then there's also, like, his brother, Dennis McKenna, he explained it to me, but I'm- I'll fuck it up if I try to re- recall it. But it's essentially that some of the elements that and how psilocybin interacts with your mind, it helps the facilitation of language. And he thinks that all those things coincided with climate change. So as, as these rainforests receded, these lower hominids came out, tried mushrooms, started eating them, and kept eating them for millions of years. And that was a part of the diet. And as they did this, and as they understood what to get and what to eat-
- PMPost Malone
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
... they, they looked for it, and they ate it, um, all the time. And it probably gave them a lot of ideas for how to make tools.
- PMPost Malone
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
It probably gave them ideas like how to harness fire. And he thinks it's the source of human evolution.
- PMPost Malone
Shroomies.
- JRJoe Rogan
Shrooms.
- PMPost Malone
That's amazing.
- 17:37 – 26:24
Ergot, Salem, and the weird side-quests: EGOTs, Wolverine Oscars, and talent envy
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, you know, they used to accidentally get high, because they would get, uh, ergot would poison their wheat and their barley.
- PMPost Malone
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
So it's like a, a certain fungus-
- PMPost Malone
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that grows on wheat, and it gives you an LSD-like effect. And they think that that might have been the source of the Salem witch, witch trials.
- PMPost Malone
Wow.
- JRJoe Rogan
Because at the time where this was taking place, they had apparently had a late frost. And when they have a late fro- or an early frost rather, and apparently when they have an early frost, it makes these plants more subject to ergot poisoning. And then they did some samples on, some soil samples, and they did find ergot.
- PMPost Malone
Did-
- JRJoe Rogan
I think they might have even, like, tested some things and found ergot in them. But they, so what they think was happening was these people were getting bad wheat that had ergot poisoning. And so a lot of them would die 'cause like, there, there was a big one, a big breakout of ergot poisoning in France.... a few years back. Not a few years back, quite a while back. But it was the same kinda thing, like a bunch of people died-
- PMPost Malone
That's crazy.
- JRJoe Rogan
... from, from Ergot, and other people were just tripping balls.
- PMPost Malone
I was gonna make an Ergot joke, but-
- JRJoe Rogan
Dang it.
- PMPost Malone
... I was gonna say, didn't Hugh Jackman win an Ergot?
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- PMPost Malone
(laughs) Uh, does he have an EGOT though? Sorry to go off-topic completely.
- JRJoe Rogan
What is an EGOT? It's like a- It's some kind of a-
- PMPost Malone
It's like an Emmy-
- JRJoe Rogan
It's some kind of a-
- PMPost Malone
... Grammy, uh, Oscar, and Tony, I think is what it is.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, that's what it is. Right. Yeah, he's probably got all those right.
- PMPost Malone
He's so talented.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, that guy can do everything.
- PMPost Malone
He's missing an Oscar for that. Oh, come on, Hugh.
- JRJoe Rogan
How does he not have an Oscar for Wolverine?
- PMPost Malone
I know. What the fuck?
- JRJoe Rogan
What are they, communists? The fuck's going on?
- PMPost Malone
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
That guy's awesome.
- PMPost Malone
He's amazing. He was jacked, man.
- 26:24 – 35:23
Why Austin/Texas feels better than LA: noise, crowd energy, and finding balance (plus dad life)
- PMPost Malone
You, you been eating, ah, Terry Blacks?
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, yes.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. We get it delivered to the club a lot too. They're amazing. It's just like, you can't have bad barbecue and survive out here.
- PMPost Malone
I would... I'm interested about the move. Have you had, like, like, you found your... Like, this place is amazing.
- JRJoe Rogan
Thank you.
- PMPost Malone
But the move here... 'Cause last time I was on, we were talking. It's been three years.
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- PMPost Malone
And that was right before you moved, you said.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
And I don't know. I love... Whenever I moved here, it was amazing. Like, the food fucking just blew me away.
- JRJoe Rogan
Food's incredible.
- PMPost Malone
Like...
- JRJoe Rogan
The people are so cool. It's just great being out of LA.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
LA... Look, there's a lot of cool people in LA. I loved it. I lived there for a long time. But it's so tense. There's so many people. And I don't think people are supposed to live that jammed up like that.
- PMPost Malone
Hm.
- JRJoe Rogan
I just don't think it's good for you. I g- gen- I mean, maybe it's different for other people. Maybe they like that feeling, and I have friends that live in New York City. They fucking love the beep, beep.
- PMPost Malone
Sure.
- JRJoe Rogan
Fuck you. They love it.
- PMPost Malone
Awesome.
- JRJoe Rogan
They love it. They, they love that crime is up, 'cause people are maniacs. They feel like they're real. They feel like it's dangerous.
- PMPost Malone
Sure.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're out there in the street.
- PMPost Malone
Sure.
- JRJoe Rogan
But me? I like to be... I like to relax.
- PMPost Malone
Me too.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
I mean, that's like... I, I... Being on tour too and being in the hotels, like, and going to... Um, 'cause I lived in LA for, like, five years, and... But being in, on tour and being in the hotels, like, and... Like, New York and Boston, and it just is so noisy.
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- 35:23 – 40:46
Vacation stress, Maldives shark fishing story, and the ethics of catch-and-release
- PMPost Malone
But back to the vacation. Sorry, I wanted to say something about that too. Have you ever been, I don't know how your family is or how your buddies are, but have you ever been on a vacation, and the people who planned the vacation are super militant about the itinerary?
- JRJoe Rogan
Ugh.
- PMPost Malone
And you can't even vacation.
- JRJoe Rogan
Ugh.
- PMPost Malone
Do you know what I'm talking about?
- JRJoe Rogan
I do know what you're talking about, but fortunately, I haven't experienced one of those.
- PMPost Malone
It is cursed.
- JRJoe Rogan
Because it's like (laughs) -
- PMPost Malone
I've seen it. I've seen people go through it.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- PMPost Malone
You're in this, like, beautiful place, and they're like, "All right, guys, so 6:00 AM tomorrow morning."
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, no.
- PMPost Malone
"You guys are up."
- JRJoe Rogan
We're going kayaking.
- PMPost Malone
It's like, it's like 3:00, and you're all drunk.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
And everybody's like, "All right, so you're gonna get up at 6:00, right? You're gonna be up at 6:00 AM to-"
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- PMPost Malone
"... to go fucking do something in the sun, and it's the hottest of all time-"
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- PMPost Malone
"... after three hours of sleep." And I'm like, "Yep, I'll be there."
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- PMPost Malone
And uh, but you don't wanna be-
- JRJoe Rogan
I mean-
- PMPost Malone
... you don't wanna be mean and be like, "I'm not going." (laughs) And then you also, then you get FOMO.
- JRJoe Rogan
I don't think it's mean. I don't think it's mean. I think it's kinda mean to tell you what to do, especially if you're on vacation.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah. Yeah, Greg.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, Greg.
- PMPost Malone
No, I don't know a Greg.
- JRJoe Rogan
Fuck Greg. (laughs) But maybe it's some cool shit, like, "We're gonna go marlin fishing. We gotta be up at 5:00 AM."
- 40:46 – 44:25
Radio as a lost centerpiece: KISS FM memories, legacy media, and old car stereo theft culture
- JRJoe Rogan
Bro, when I was a kid, no one ever would have thought there would be a time where radio wasn't like a centerpiece in everyone's life.
- PMPost Malone
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause when I was a kid, like in high school, in the '80s, it was like, "What station do you listen to?"
- PMPost Malone
Right.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, I was a BCN guy.
- PMPost Malone
Sure.
- JRJoe Rogan
The Rock of Boston, you know?
- PMPost Malone
And you got beat up by the, the KTMT's-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- PMPost Malone
... guys. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, there was the AAF guys that were a little more hardcore.
- PMPost Malone
Those guys are crazy.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
I know those fuckers. They're crazy.
- JRJoe Rogan
And then there's the, the KISS FM guys who were into disco.
- PMPost Malone
I love KISS FM.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're into like going out to clubs, you know? (laughs)
- PMPost Malone
When did KISS FM start?
- JRJoe Rogan
(sighs) Well, there's been a lot of KISS FMs, right?
- PMPost Malone
'Cause I... 106.1, K-K-K-K-KISS FM.
- JRJoe Rogan
Where is that one?
- PMPost Malone
Dallas-Fort Worth, yeah. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Dallas, yeah. I think there's a KISS FM all over the country. I don't know if they're affiliate... I don't know what that is. Is that like a f- a fucking chain? I don't know.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah, it's d- I- I just... Is it franchised? (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
That's a good question.
- PMPost Malone
Like, how do they get a franchise in place?
- JRJoe Rogan
'Cause there's a whole lot of KISS FMs.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah, I mean-
- JRJoe Rogan
Why does that sound so good? It does sound good. KISS FM.
- PMPost Malone
It sounds so good.
- 44:25 – 51:57
Lockpicking rabbit hole, ‘security theater,’ and online culture: Among Us, Metaverse, and taxes
- PMPost Malone
And what happened to, uh... How come no one uses those, uh, steering wheel locks?
- JRJoe Rogan
They don't really work.
- PMPost Malone
They don't?
- JRJoe Rogan
I mean, maybe some of them do. I've seen people break them though. Pretty easy.
- PMPost Malone
Well, you could break... You ever watch the Lockpick Lawyer-
- JRJoe Rogan
No.
- PMPost Malone
... on YouTube?
- JRJoe Rogan
No.
- PMPost Malone
I don't know anything about lock picking. I wanna learn. It seems like a, just a cool thing to learn playing video games and stuff, and I'm like, "I wanna lock pick shit." That sounds so-
- JRJoe Rogan
Very, very James Bond.
- PMPost Malone
It's badass. Very, uh, t- uh, Splinter Cell.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, it's cool if you have a little lock pick tool in your box.
- PMPost Malone
That's fucking... That's badass. And, but to be able to pull that out is pretty cool.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
But the Lockpick Lawyer, he can get into, like, anything. Yeah, this is... Dude, it's so cool, man. This... See, this is the, this is the Lexic- Lexus, uh, RX300. I love this lock. Um-
- JRJoe Rogan
You know locks?
- PMPost Malone
No, sir.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- PMPost Malone
But as you, uh, but as you see here with this, uh-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, the little things it's got?
- PMPost Malone
... with this toy 48, with the toy 48.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- PMPost Malone
Man, he'll get in here so quick.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, my God, he can get in anywhere with these things.
- PMPost Malone
And that's my favorite lock, so...
- JRJoe Rogan
This is crazy. Look how he's doing this.
- PMPost Malone
(laughs) That's your favorite lock?
- JRJoe Rogan
Look how he's doing this. This is nuts.
- PMPost Malone
So they'll make... They'll do, like, challenges for him, and he'll just get in there no problem. It is so... And I never was interested, but this shit is like... it's like ASMR. It is so fun to watch. And I'll just watch this all night. Um-
- JRJoe Rogan
This is wild how he's doing this-
- 51:57 – 1:00:05
Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz, combat-sports endurance, and VR boxing to gaming addiction (Diablo/Quake)
- PMPost Malone
Did you watch the fight?
- JRJoe Rogan
I did.
- PMPost Malone
What do you think?
- JRJoe Rogan
It was a good fight. Jake did a great job.
- PMPost Malone
He's-
- JRJoe Rogan
He's very talented.
- PMPost Malone
He's big.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, he's a big fella.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
He's a big fella, and you know, Nate is, uh, definitely smaller than him, definitely doesn't hit as hard as him. Um, and Jake has a lot more experience in professional boxing now, for sure. But he's legit.
- PMPost Malone
I, I, I, he-
- JRJoe Rogan
He's a legit fighter.
- PMPost Malone
I mean, yeah, he looks, he looks good. I mean, Nate, I just love watching Nate fight.
- JRJoe Rogan
He's an animal.
- PMPost Malone
He, he is amazing. He is like one of my favorites to watch. And I was super pumped to... It came on after the show in Dallas the first night, like two nights ago.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're talking about having an MMA fight, which would be a way different fight.
- PMPost Malone
I want that fight.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- PMPost Malone
I want that fight.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's a way different fight. That's a way different fight.
- PMPost Malone
I feel like, and I've never been in a combat sport before, but-
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- PMPost Malone
... like I, it's so, it, it changes everything.
- JRJoe Rogan
Changes everything.
- PMPost Malone
Like you see Nate kinda getting up against the rope because he wants the, the chain there.
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- PMPost Malone
You know?
- JRJoe Rogan
Right.
- PMPost Malone
Like 'cause I s- he's getting up against the rope, and I'm like, "Oh, in MMA or UFC or whatever, you can get up against..."
- JRJoe Rogan
You'd tie him up.
- 1:00:05 – 1:12:45
Bud Light backlash, long-form conversation as an antidote, and social media’s brain-hijack
- JRJoe Rogan
I make it, force it. Just force it. Give me one of them Bud Lights. Fuck it.
- PMPost Malone
Fuck it. Got it. Let's go.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're cold too.
- PMPost Malone
We've been drinking Bud Light consistently on this show. Yeah? I'm sure the comments are afire- (laughs) ... with those, those folks that like to get riled up about stupid shit.
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, that's what I said, you know. I, I... Before the show, I was like, just back to the conversation we were just having. There's not a lot of comfort in the modern world, man. And I've been drinking this forever.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And I don't-
- PMPost Malone
Gives you comfort.
- JRJoe Rogan
I'm drinking my fucking... I'm gonna... Goddammit, I'm gonna drink a fucking beer, Joe Rogan.
- PMPost Malone
Yeah. A Bud Light too.
- JRJoe Rogan
I'm gonna drink a fucking Bud Light, and it's yummy.
- PMPost Malone
Forget about everybody's outrage.
- JRJoe Rogan
