Let's go, Dan Soder.

Yeah.
- NANarrator
Let's go, baby. What's happening?
- DSDan Soder
Yeah. I forgot how good of weed you have.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
This is Katt Williams' weed.
- DSDan Soder
Is det really?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- DSDan Soder
Oh, shit, I'm gonna start talking shit on everyone in the business.
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
And there ain't never been a day that Shane Gilles ain't never texted me, "You're gay."
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
(laughs)
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
"Always calling me gay."
- NANarrator
(gasps)
- DSDan Soder
Um...
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, we had Katt Williams ride the racing simulator and I filmed it and put some of it up on Instagram, but he's like-
- DSDan Soder
That's amazing.
- JRJoe Rogan
... "This is how he drives."
- DSDan Soder
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
"This is a normal thing. He does this 'cause he does this in real life."
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
Yeah. I would love for Katt Williams to be the voice of my self-hate.
- NANarrator
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- 15:00 – 30:00
Oh, my God. …
- DSDan Soder
I'm telling you, it timed out perfectly with me. I was young enough to watch Saved by the Bell and take it seriously, that by the time puberty hit and Showgirls happened, you're like, "I was waiting for something like this." (laughs) And you're like-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, my God.
- DSDan Soder
... wait, I think kids now get it too quick.
- JRJoe Rogan
Way too quick.
- DSDan Soder
The sexualizing of, like, everything happens so-
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, boys are seeing porn the moment they get a phone.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah. The an-
- JRJoe Rogan
The moment they get a phone.
- DSDan Soder
Why wouldn't you? I mean-
- JRJoe Rogan
You, you can't stop them.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're too smart. My, my youngest, uh, my middle daughter rather, she figured out how to f-... My wife put a password on her phone.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And so, like, she could limit the use. She figured to record the screen-
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... and give the, my wife the phone. So my wife punches in the numbers, it's recording the screen.
- DSDan Soder
(laughs) It's like Velociraptors learning how to open doors.
- JRJoe Rogan
Wow, it's exactly like-
- DSDan Soder
What the fuck?
- JRJoe Rogan
She was 12.
- DSDan Soder
That is... They, they know so fast.
- JRJoe Rogan
But that's so creepy.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah, I, it's-
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, "You little raptor."
- DSDan Soder
Yeah. Like... (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, imagine saying that. "Oh, here mom."
- DSDan Soder
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
"Here mom, here's my phone."
- DSDan Soder
"Can you put it in?"
- JRJoe Rogan
"I re- I re- I really agree with you, the limitations are important."
- 30:00 – 45:00
It is. …
- JRJoe Rogan
w- feud was the dumbest thing of all time. It made-
- DSDan Soder
It is.
- JRJoe Rogan
... zero sense.
- DSDan Soder
You are literally giving power to all the industry, separating like that.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's so, it would, not only was it so dumb, but it never made any sense, 'cause most of us started on the East Coast.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah. Well, you're from Massachusetts.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yes. (laughs) Yeah, I started in Boston.
- DSDan Soder
(laughs) You're like, you started, yeah, you started, like-
- JRJoe Rogan
And then-
- DSDan Soder
... Stanhope's from Worcester.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- DSDan Soder
It's like-
- JRJoe Rogan
So many guys started in New York-
- DSDan Soder
Burr-
- JRJoe Rogan
... and then came to LA.
- DSDan Soder
I-
- JRJoe Rogan
Burr, yeah.
- DSDan Soder
I moved to New York in '07, right when Burr left, and so it felt like ridiculous that people were like, "LA comics." You're like, "Yeah, but Burr ju- Burr's d-" Like, we knew peo-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- DSDan Soder
Like, people that were there. It was alwa- It was ridiculous.
- JRJoe Rogan
It was stupid. But it was a dumb thing, like, we just weren't communicating.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's like, "Oh, good, fuck those guys." It's like the walled garden feel, like you'd come to the store and there'd be all the cliques, and you wouldn't-
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... know who to hang out with, you know?
- DSDan Soder
It's always, it's all high school. It's always high school.
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- DSDan Soder
High school just keeps repeating itself throughout your life.
- JRJoe Rogan
But you can have a cool group of friends in high school.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- 45:00 – 1:00:00
Yeah. …
- JRJoe Rogan
these are real forces in the world.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And there... So, peop- what people are saying is that these experiences that some people are having with like benevolent ones-
- DSDan Soder
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that you're... This is the stories of demons. This is the stories of the Bible-
- DSDan Soder
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that there's like, there's, there's races that are evil. There's alien races that don't give a fuck, just like there's-
- DSDan Soder
Oh, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... praying mantises-
- DSDan Soder
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that eat hummingbirds, like-
- DSDan Soder
Oh, like in nature.
- JRJoe Rogan
Just, j- just 'cause they're super smart-
- DSDan Soder
There's, there are cr- there are creatures that are aggressive-
- JRJoe Rogan
Right.
- DSDan Soder
... that are smart like a hyena, and then there's like animals that are aggressive and just powerful, like lions, like-
- JRJoe Rogan
And think about us, the smartest animal on the planet that we know of, and what do we do to chickens?
- DSDan Soder
Fuck 'em. No.
- JRJoe Rogan
Fu- uh-oh, those chickens-
- DSDan Soder
(laughs) I go, "No, you don't fuck..." Oh, goddamn-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs) Yeah. People definitely have.
- DSDan Soder
This is where, this is where my whole world unravels. I go, "Joe, I fuck chickens, dude."
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
I don't know. I didn't think you were gonna get me like that. But yeah, y- it... There could be the, the idea of benevolent aliens, of like the idea that there are aliens that are good-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- DSDan Soder
... and aliens that are bad-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- DSDan Soder
... scares me so much more-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- DSDan Soder
... 'cause you're just like, "P- Please leave me alone," and like, "Good ones, bail me out of this." I mean...
- 1:00:00 – 1:06:13
Aw. …
- DSDan Soder
movie about a puppy and a dog that love each other, right? My favorite episode of Legion of Skanks ever is ... I wasn't even on it. Luis J. Gomez talks about it. He gets teared up 'cause he loves the movie so much. I think he was drunk on the podcast. It's like, if you watched it in your childhood, it sticks with you. It's a movie about a dog and a cat that ... From '86. And it's like-
- JRJoe Rogan
Aw.
- DSDan Soder
Yeah. It's about a, a pug and this cat, and they're friends, and they just go on a wild adventure through-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
... wherever they're going through, right?
- JRJoe Rogan
Okay.
- DSDan Soder
And you're like ... A- as part of my childhood, it's live action, I remember this being like, "Dude, this is such a sweet movie."
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
You look up the animal abuse that occurred on this movie-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- DSDan Soder
... and it ... I can't even watch this 'cause it upsets me knowing there's ... I think you can look it up. There was a scene involving a cat where they killed, like, 12 of them to get this scene done. 'Cause I think (laughs) it was filmed in a country with, like, no animal rights. Like, no at all. And they're just like ... That scene, that was the scene where the cats and the th- ... I think they lost, like, a bunch of cats.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh my God.
- DSDan Soder
There was this scene where they had to make him walk with a limp, and they were just breaking his leg.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- DSDan Soder
That's what I mean. You read about it, and you're like, "Oh."
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh my God.
- DSDan Soder
It, it ... Once they did that episode on Skanks, and then I read about it, 'cause I, like, was listening to the episode playing video games, and I was like, "I gotta look this up," it fucked me up. (laughs) I, like, can't ...
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, my God.
- DSDan Soder
It's, uh, the animal welfare allegations, yeah, um-
- GVGuest (unidentified clip voice)
Yeah, it doesn't say much.
- DSDan Soder
Oh, okay. Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
(sighs)
- DSDan Soder
They probably aren't going into the details, but you can find the details online. But it-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- DSDan Soder
They were like ... It ... 'Cause you see it, and you're like-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, my God.
- DSDan Soder
... "Oh, look at that, an animal and a cat, friends."
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, isn't that like, the, the idea of, like ... If you ran, like, a, a billionaire pedophile business.
- DSDan Soder
Sure. All right. I'm with you.
- JRJoe Rogan
And you did it through an animation company.
