      Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.

    4. AS

    5. SG

      Yeah.

    6. AS

      ... each other out in the wild, they're never really cool with each other.

    7. SG

      No.

    8. MN

      Oh, sometimes they are.

    9. AS

      Sometimes if they're in the neighborhood.

    10. MN

      They get buddies, yeah.

    11. AS

      But they have to ... Don't they have to grow up together?

    12. SG

      Yeah, it's like women. They hate each other. (person laughing)

    13. MN

      (laughs) Yep. You ever ... You ever notice how women don't have friends? (laughs)

    14. SG

      (laughs)

    15. So, you know who hates women the most? Women.

    16. MN

      (laughs) Yeah.

    17. SG

      Girl power.

    18. MN

      Who runs the world? Girls. Who runs the world? Jews. (laughs)

    19. AS

      (laughs) I bought you that book, by the way.

    20. SG

      What about all those britches?

    21. MN

      Who Runs the World: Jews? (laughs)

    22. AS

      No, the Lizzo book that I sent you the picture of.

    23. MN

      Oh, I thought you were joking.

    24. SG

      (laughs) Lizzo's got a book? Is it a cookbook?

    25. MN

      I'm gonna read it. (laughs)

    26. AS

      (laughs)

    27. SG

      (laughs)

    28. AS

      What was the book? What did it say?

    29. MN

      I ... I don't ... (drum roll) I don't want any part of this. (laughs)

    30. SG

      Chicken Soup for the Soul?

  2. 1:222:01

    The Lizzo controversy: accusations, diva behavior, and “Free Lizzo”

    1. SG

      I thought when she got in trouble, it would just, just blow a hole through everything.

    2. AS

      Ah, come on.

    3. SG

      I thought when she ... they were coming after her for body shaming-

    4. MN

      You think you're gonna get a ...

    5. AS

      For what? For being a diva? Like, what was the worst thing she did?

    6. SG

      Yeah.

    7. I thought it was like ... it would put an end, like, DC, someone says-

    8. MN

      Using the word spaz.

    9. SG

      ... sex stuff.

    10. ... Can we just enjoy-

    11. MN

      She didn't do anything.

    12. SG

      Yeah.

    13. MN

      She's innocent. Also, for real, I know it's like ... Free Lizzo.

    14. SG

      Yes.

    15. Free Lizzo. Free Lizzo.

    16. MN

      What'd she do?

    17. SG

      She didn't do shit.

    18. She's queen.

    19. MN

      What was her accusations? Like, she made a performer show banana up her pussy or something.

    20. SG

      She was mean or something. Yeah, like, come on.

    21. MN

      Normal shit. Fucking baller shit, dude. Lizzo rules.

    22. SG

      I stand behind her.

    23. I've seen her. Puts on a good concert.

    24. She's good.

  3. 2:017:20

    James Madison’s flute & culture-war symbolism

    1. MN

      I've seen ... I, though ... Although I will say I was actually pissed when they made her twerk with ... think it was James Madison's flute. (imitates flute) (laughs)

    2. SG

      Why?

    3. AS

      Why?

    4. SG

      Pissed me off.

    5. AS

      Why?

    6. SG

      He can't help it. He's gonna get pissed at-

    7. MN

      It's just such bullshit.

    8. AS

      I kinda like it. I think it symbolizes the time we're living in.

    9. SG

      (gasps)

    10. MN

      I think it does too.

    11. SG

      I think the time sucks. (laughs)

    12. MN

      With Lizzo can twerk with a f- ... P- it's maybe, but maybe not. It depends on your perspective.

    13. SG

      I'm with you. It's just an artifact.

    14. AS

      It's the most fun time to be alive.

    15. MN

      All right. Here's the ... here's the ... Genuinely, it's like, I get it. I genuinely don't care about that guy's fucking flute. Fuck him.

    16. SG

      I don't like it.

    17. There's something about Joe. It's like, "These guys are history."

    18. MN

      But I know-

    19. SG

      Let's get married.

    20. MN

      But I know why they're celebrating it.

    21. SG

      Right.

    22. MN

      They're like, "Yeah. Yeah. In your fucking face." And it's like, come on, dude. The guy founded America. (laughs)

    23. SG

      Yeah. Yeah, what did he do wrong?

    24. MN

      Like, that's the ... I know they don't give a fuck about history.

    25. SG

      It was the time.

    26. AS

      Right.

    27. MN

      And by they, I mean white liberals.

    28. AS

      She played a 200-year-old flute.

    29. MN

      Jesus.

    30. AS

      Man.

  4. 7:2011:47

    Playing Lizzo’s music and the ‘back-up dancer’ power dynamic

    1. JR

      (hip hop music) They got a big brain.

    2. AS

      Yes, Joe.

    3. MN

      This is a good tune.

    4. JR

      Whoo.

    5. MN

      How many views?

    6. Ow! Oh my God, you missed (laughs) , you missed a ... You almost broke my DB, fucking idiot.

    7. How many views on this song?

    8. There you go, perfect.

    9. Five million.

    10. That's incredible.

    11. JR

      Bling bling and I solve them. That's the goddess in you.

    12. MN

      You're surprised this lady makes money eating bananas?

    13. AS

      This song slaps. Yeah, it does.

    14. MN

      There you go. Joe's fucking connected.

    15. AS

      This is a good song.

    16. MN

      Crazy that her backup dancers are mad at her. She's fun, but-

    17. SG

      No, they're mad at everybody.

    18. AS

      You know, that's always how it works though, man. That's always how it works. The backup dancers always get upset.

    19. MN

      That's sad.

    20. AS

      But also, it's like, how do you run the thing if you dare your backup dancers? How do you run the thing? Do you run the thing like someone, you know, who's a tyrant? Or do you run the thing like ... Are you a benevolent dictator? Like, how, how do you run that camp?

    21. MN

      (laughs)

    22. Yeah, I know, man. (laughs)

    23. SG

      You gotta keep in control of these ladies when they get, um, ou- out of line.

    24. AS

      Fat ladies.

    25. MN

      Wasn't she, wasn't she saying they were losing weight?

    26. AS

      Also, who is she, who is she bringing with ... But there was also that show that she had where she's-

    27. SG

      You're a fat dancer. Be lucky to be alive.

    28. AS

      ... put those ladies on tour and they were ... their ankles couldn't sustain it. Like, you're a doorknob.

    29. MN

      She had a show?

    30. AS

      Yeah, they were on tour. These ladies were dancing on tour. Wasn't there, like, some kinda crazy thing?

  5. 11:4714:31

    The infamous ‘piss bottle’ escalation on-air

    1. MN

      If you drink that, I'm gonna punch you in the stomach.

    2. AS

      Water? You don't like h- that he drinks water?

    3. MN

      No.

    4. AS

      Oh, Ari.

    5. What are you doing, man?

    6. MN

      Oh, that's his studio.

    7. AS

      Ari, that's like, that's stolen from a stream somewhere.

    8. What are you doing, pouring that out for the Hamas people?

    9. That's... Don't, don't do that.

    10. MN

      What are you doing now?

    11. AS

      Ari, don't piss in that. Go to the bathroom, man.

    12. MN

      I will.

    13. AS

      Go to the bathroom.

    14. Go to the bathroom.

    15. What is he doing?

    16. MN

      I don't know.

    17. AS

      Ari, come on.

    18. Oh.

    19. MN

      Oh.

    20. AS

      Jesus Christ, dude.

    21. Man, what the fuck? This is really-

    22. MN

      What happened? You bugged one... Ew, your piss is so yellow. (laughs)

    23. AS

      It's really leveled up.

    24. This is so unnecessary.

    25. MN

      Ew, yeah.

    26. AS

      Oh, man.

    27. You're so unhydrated. I know that's not vitamins, but-

    28. MN

      This is way worse than Lizzo.

    29. AS

      Okay, squeeze it.

    30. Oh.

  6. 14:3121:55

    Stanhope check-in and celebrating comics who stayed authentic

    1. MN

      You know who has it good, is, uh, Stanhope has a urinal right outside of his bar at his house.

    2. SG

      Really?

    3. MN

      Outside.

    4. AS

      Oh, his house?

    5. MN

      It's just his... It's, uh, literally a urinal attached. There's no piping, it's just to the fence.

    6. SG

      (laughs)

    7. MN

      That goes outside.

    8. SG

      That's hilarious. Yeah, that's hilarious.

    9. MN

      Yeah, it's a good one.

    10. AS

      I hope he's all right, though. I, I know-

    11. SG

      He's great.

    12. MN

      I think he's doing, I think he's doing good.

    13. SG

      He's great.

    14. AS

      Is he, is he cutting back a little?

    15. MN

      I think he cut back.

    16. SG

      Hey.

    17. MN

      No, that's not him. That's not him. Stay on it.

    18. AS

      He's had your good days and he had your better days.

    19. MN

      I think he chilled on s- smoking cigs, right?

    20. AS

      Yes, he did. Yeah.

    21. MN

      And then somebody just told me he killed.

    22. AS

      Yes.

    23. Oh, good.

    24. He opened up for Burt in, uh-

    25. MN

      Yes.

    26. AS

      ... Worcester.

    27. Oh.

    28. MN

      Yes.

    29. AS

      He went out there as the mayor of Worcester.

    30. Ah, it's his hometown, I believe.

  7. 21:5526:10

    STDs, syphilis horror images, and pre-antibiotic history

    1. AS

      How weird is it that there's diseases that can only be transmitted through sex?

    2. SG

      Yeah.

    3. JR

      AIDS?

    4. SG

      That's God.

    5. JR

      No, that's other ones.

    6. SG

      No, AIDS. AIDS, chlamydia, herpes-

    7. AS

      AIDS is definitely one.

    8. SG

      ... herpes.

    9. JR

      But no, that's needles too.

    10. SG

      Eh.

    11. AS

      Yeah. Well, that's any ...

    12. SG

      I'll quote Sam Kinison. Name one. (laughs)

    13. AS

      Yeah.

    14. JR

      Well, you got chlamydia, gonorrhea-

    15. AS

      Sam, they say it's, they say it's an infectious disease.

    16. SG

      Chlamydia, gonorrhea-

    17. JR

      HPV.

    18. SG

      ... HPV, herpes, AIDS.

    19. AS

      Are we getting today at STDs?

    20. SG

      Yep, only transmitted, yeah.

    21. AS

      But the wild ones are the ones that kill you, like syphilis kills you.

    22. SG

      Syphilis.

    23. JR

      Slowly.

    24. AS

      It makes you have holes in your face and you see your fucking jawbone and shit.

    25. JR

      Is that right?

    26. SG

      What? That sounds gross, though.

    27. JR

      That's what I heard, or Roger Ebert has that.

    28. SG

      For real.

    29. AS

      Bro, syphilis is-

    30. JR

      I bet it was worth it, though. I bet it was worth it.

  8. 26:1028:44

    Asteroids, civilization fragility, and ‘crows evolve thumbs’

    1. SG

      Yikes. We're lucky to be alive now and in this country.

    2. AS

      Dude, we're also, we, like what the COVID thing should-

    3. SG

      Be in a fucking year mark.

    4. AS

      ... wake people the fuck up too is that this whole thing is super fragile. And you think it's not because it's not right now. 'Cause right now, Ari can cough and I could fucking unzip my, or pull my fucking cord, and adjust my seat and everything's fine. But if right while all this is going on, we got hit by an asteroid (laughs) -

    5. SG

      Yeah.

    6. Yes.

    7. AS

      Like, right now.

    8. SG

      Oh, yeah. Yeah, exactly. All your safety ... Oh, I just did 10 push-ups. That ain't gonna help you now.

    9. AS

      Yeah. We could just be chilling, and you could just hear a subtle boom in the distance, like boom. And that's a five-mile-wide chunk of iron hitting China. (laughs)

    10. SG

      (laughs)

    11. (laughs)

    12. AS

      And then the whole world is fucked. The whole world is fucked for a million years.

    13. SG

      Yeah.

    14. AS

      And we probably don't survive. And what probably survives is crows. Crow, crows probably evolve and crows- I hope it's just crows and cats. Crows grow thumbs and their wings start having hands on them-

    15. SG

      Yeah.

    16. AS

      ... and they start making buildings.

    17. SG

      Yeah.

    18. AS

      Just like humans came out of shrews.

    19. SG

      I was just in Yucatan. They said the whole Gulf of Mexico is just the comet.

    20. AS

      You didn't know that?

    21. SG

      Uh-huh.

    22. AS

      You stupid idiot.

    23. SG

      And then all the cenotes-

    24. Yep.

    25. AS

      (laughs) You didn't know that you stupid idiot?

    26. SG

      (laughs)

    27. Get the fuck away from me. You didn't know that already?

    28. I didn't know that at all.

    29. AS

      You fucking dumbass.

    30. SG

      Fucking shit, Seamus.

  9. 28:4432:09

    Saudi-buyout jokes, Protect Our Parks gas stations, and rapid-change anxiety

    1. AS

      Like, if shit goes, shit goes sideways, what if Saudi Arabia steps in and buys Protect Our Parks?

    2. SG

      Woman vice president.

    3. I'm in, dude.

    4. (laughs)

    5. AS

      The same people that put on the Francis Ngannou, Tyson Fury fight, they step in and go, "Listen, guys."

    6. SG

      We need this.

    7. AS

      "America has fallen."

    8. SG

      Yeah.

    9. AS

      "You can either accept that-"

    10. SG

      I would support it.

    11. Yeah.

    12. AS

      "You can either accept that-"

    13. SG

      "Hey, Saudi Arabia, make an offer, but make an offer."

    14. AS

      "... and move to a place where we have zero crime."

    15. SG

      "Let's go to Dubai."

    16. "Give me those glasses back."

    17. AS

      Yeah. "You accept that and move to a place-"

    18. SG

      "You wanna switch?"

    19. AS

      "... where we have zero crime."

    20. SG

      I know you ... Did you switch already?

    21. AS

      Are you guys switching glasses like little Gaylords?

    22. SG

      Have I been wearing them the whole time?

    23. Yeah.

    24. What are you talking about?

    25. You didn't switch.

    26. Am I retarded?

    27. Yes.

    28. What do you mean?

    29. AS

      What happened?

    30. SG

      I think I'm just retarded.

  10. 32:0935:11

    Kali Yuga, Gaza/Israel talk, and ‘Shroomfest solves world conflict’

    1. AS

      Well, let's, let's forget about this idea of generations.

    2. JR

      Our group had, our group had a good run.

    3. AS

      But just a collective group of, the collective group of human beings is only pushed to action when they have to be. And if everything collapses, and if the corruption and the chaos is so bad that you don't feel safe ever-

    4. SG

      Yeah.

    5. AS

      ... then we'll do something.

    6. SG

      Then it'll be like, "Let's see what you-"

    7. AS

      But every step before that, you get more and more cowards that figure out a way to just- Yeah, hard, hard guys make soft dicks.

    8. SG

      (laughing)

    9. JR

      Wait a minute. Hard guys make soft dicks? (laughs)

    10. SG

      What? Soft dicks, soft dicks make hard guys.

    11. JR

      (laughing)

    12. AS

      Ah, that's it.

    13. JR

      (laughs)

    14. AS

      You know, this is like a fucking cycle of nature. They, they, they talked about this in the ancient Hindu texts, in, in the Vedas. This is like, this is the Kali Yuga.

    15. SG

      This is the Kali Yuga. I totally forgot about this.

    16. JR

      Oh.

    17. AS

      This is the Kali Yuga.

    18. SG

      Oh, yeah, Kali Yuga.

    19. AS

      The Age of Confusion.

    20. JR

      Oh.

    21. AS

      It's like, they figured it out a long time ago. These are like these, m- these, these are these times where people are working towards something, and then they achieve it, and they get too successful, and things get weird, and then this stuff.

    22. SG

      They'll strive.

    23. AS

      And then they start creating their own bullshit, and not appreciating thing, and not, not practicing gratitude, and it all fucking comes tumbling down with greed and deception and-

    24. SG

      Yeah, they're like, "We've accepted this already. Now what's wrong?"

    25. AS

      Yeah.

    26. SG
