   4. BRBrian Redban0:13

      Wazzup?

   5. JRJoe Rogan0:13

      Hey, fella.

   6. BRBrian Redban0:14

      Hey, buddy.

   7. JRJoe Rogan0:15

      What's crackalackin'?

   8. BRBrian Redban0:16

      Nothin'.

   9. JRJoe Rogan0:17

      Have you been fucking around with the ChatGPT? I saw you brought it.

   10. BRBrian Redban0:19

       Yeah. I got the, uh, I just got the 4.0, the one that they've been showing where you could talk-

   11. JRJoe Rogan0:24

       Yeah.

   12. BRBrian Redban0:24

       ... to it naturally and stuff.

   13. JRJoe Rogan0:25

       Duncan had it in the green room. We were talking shit to it.

   14. BRBrian Redban0:28

       Yeah.

   15. JRJoe Rogan0:28

       About it replacing us.

   16. BRBrian Redban0:29

       Yeah. It, it's pretty c- crazy, you know?

   17. JRJoe Rogan0:33

       Yeah.

   18. BRBrian Redban0:33

       Like, like, it, it's weird how AI came out of nowhere and then we're like, "We're ... how long has this been, you know, being worked on?"

   19. JRJoe Rogan0:41

       Yeah.

   20. BRBrian Redban0:41

       And then now it's, like, everywhere. Like, my, my, uh, uh, vacuum cleaner has AI now. It's crazy.

   21. JRJoe Rogan0:47

       What does it do?

   22. BRBrian Redban0:48

       It, uh, it's one of those robot vacs where it scans your whole house and then, like, it de- detects things using AI. Like, "Oh, that's shit. Don't run over it," or ...

   23. JRJoe Rogan0:57

       (laughs)

   24. BRBrian Redban0:58

       (laughs)

   25. JRJoe Rogan0:58

       So like if your dog shits on the floor-

   26. BRBrian Redban0:59

       Yeah.

   27. JRJoe Rogan0:59

       ... it recognizes dog shit?

   28. BRBrian Redban1:00

       Yeah. And it, and it doesn't do a good job 'cause it, the first thing it did it went right over to this dog shit and just started smearing dog shit through the whole entire kitchen.

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:07

       (laughs) Why's your dog shitting in the kitchen?

   30. BRBrian Redban1:09

       'Cause once in a while, you know, dogs, Shih Tzus don't care. They're like, "I, I have to shit. I don't wanna bother anyone."
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   Right. …

   1. JRJoe Rogan15:00

      as good a comic-

   2. BRBrian Redban15:01

      Right.

   3. JRJoe Rogan15:01

      ... as them. But, like, what, the way Chris Rock does it, Chris, um, I n- I haven't talked to him personally. I've, I've heard him talk about it and I've talked to people who work with him. So one of the things he gets accused of unfairly, people say that he has writers who write for him. Chris Rock writes his own material. What he has is the writers, he bounces the ide- ideas off them, so they come and watch him do the set, and then they say, "Maybe when you do this, say that first," or, "Maybe expand on this," or, "I got a tag for that." And so... But those guys who are doing that aren't as good a comic as him, so sometimes you just need other ideas, right?

   4. BRBrian Redban15:41

      Yeah, it's like the green room. That's why, you know, green room-

   5. JRJoe Rogan15:43

      Right.

   6. BRBrian Redban15:44

      That's what you... "Man, that joke, you should've had this," or, you know...

   7. JRJoe Rogan15:47

      Mm-hmm. That happens so... The green room is amazing for that.

   8. BRBrian Redban15:50

      Yeah, yeah.

   9. JRJoe Rogan15:50

      There's so many times in the green room that we're all trying to work out a bit, and then, like, Tony will chime in or Brian will chime in. They're like, "Oh, that's it." And then you figure it out. I mean, we rewrote David Lucas' entire fucking act-

   10. BRBrian Redban16:03

       (laughs)

   11. NANarrator16:03

       (laughs)

   12. JRJoe Rogan16:03

       ... in that green room. (laughs)

   13. BRBrian Redban16:04

       (laughs)

   14. NANarrator16:04

       (laughs)

   15. JRJoe Rogan16:05

       But it's... That's one thing. So, like, if, if ChatGBT just gave you, like, ideas.

   16. BRBrian Redban16:12

       Yeah.

   17. JRJoe Rogan16:13

       Just, I just need, like, a framework sometimes. I, I feel like each subject is just a scaffolding, so I get the scaffolding. Now once I have the scaffolding, I have to build a house. And so... But I have to have a fucking location where I can start building. So it ha-... The location is the subject, whatever the idea is, and then I start building. That's how I do it.

   18. BRBrian Redban16:36

       Mm-hmm.

   19. JRJoe Rogan16:36

       But I mean, everybody does it different, man. I mean, everybody does it d-... Some people have to write it down on paper. Like, some people, all their stuff, like Colin Quinn's shit's all on paper. A lot of people, they, it's just, they write it down. Like, Christina P, she has this notebook she brings with her, and you look at the note, it's filled with ideas. It's just all wr... She goes, "I have to write it down on paper."

   20. BRBrian Redban16:59

       Marc Normand, like his back pocket-

   21. JRJoe Rogan17:01

       Oh.

   22. BRBrian Redban17:01

       ... is like a turtle, you know, of how many-

   23. NANarrator17:02

       Insane.

   24. BRBrian Redban17:03

       (laughs)

   25. NANarrator17:03

       He's the most insane. He's the most insane.

   26. JRJoe Rogan17:05

       Yeah.

   27. NANarrator17:06

       'Cause he has a phone.

   28. BRBrian Redban17:06

       He's hilarious.

   29. JRJoe Rogan17:07

       He has a phone. He knows his notes-

   30. NANarrator17:08

       (laughs)
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   (laughs) …

   1. JRJoe Rogan30:00

      so genuinely happy and fun.

   2. BRBrian Redban30:02

      (laughs)

   3. JRJoe Rogan30:03

      Pe- people don't understand him or they don't know who he is or they just wanna demonize him as this evil right-wing person. He's a sweetheart of a guy. A- and I'm, I'm saying that as someone who's spent hours with him. He's a very nice guy. He's nice to everybody. He's just, he's nice. He's just, he's odd. He's odd. He's an odd guy.

   4. BRBrian Redban30:19

      (laughs) Funny laugh.

   5. JRJoe Rogan30:20

      And he was also working in the belly of the beast for like, how many years? He was on CNN and then he goes to, CNN F- to Fox. And now he's a wild boy. Like, now he's online. He's just wild. I- you know, having, interviewing that guy who says he sucked Obama's dick, like that-

   6. BRBrian Redban30:38

      (laughs) Yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan30:38

      What are you doing? (laughs)

   8. BRBrian Redban30:39

      (laughs)

   9. JRJoe Rogan30:40

      I forgot to ask him about that.

   10. BRBrian Redban30:42

       Remember when William just ... Or was it William or Cam just brought that up?

   11. JRJoe Rogan30:45

       Yeah, William brought up, "Did that guy really suck Obama's dick?" (laughs)

   12. BRBrian Redban30:50

       (laughs)

   13. JRJoe Rogan30:51

       What a nightmare. What a nightmare.

   14. BRBrian Redban30:54

       (laughs)

   15. JRJoe Rogan30:54

       Tucker.

   16. BRBrian Redban30:56

       Uh...

   17. JRJoe Rogan30:59

       Uh, this... Uh... (laughs)

   18. BRBrian Redban30:59

       William's so fucking funny, and his brother now works at the mothership, and it's like the coolest thing ever. (laughs)

   19. JRJoe Rogan31:03

       Yeah, it's amazing. He, William is so funny and he's so confident now. And look, I mean when we first met that guy, he was awkward but kind of funny, but he had to have those goddamn notes.

   20. BRBrian Redban31:14

       Mm-hmm.

   21. JRJoe Rogan31:14

       And how many times did we have conversations with him in the green room?

   22. BRBrian Redban31:17

       Oh, like millions.

   23. JRJoe Rogan31:17

       Millions. Like, "Dude, you gotta ditch those notes." Because when he would do Kill Tony, when he would engage with the audience, I go, "When you stare at the audience and start talking to them," I go, it makes me nervous, like as a f- a friend of yours-

   24. BRBrian Redban31:29

       (laughs)

   25. JRJoe Rogan31:29

       ... you're so wild. But like, I'm in the audience, like, "This guy's crazy." That's better than staring at your notes, man.

   26. BRBrian Redban31:35

       Right.

   27. JRJoe Rogan31:35

       Engage them, look at them. You can remember your jokes. And he just had to, like, be convinced that he can re- Now he's doing an hour on stage with no notes, no... And killing, headlining, selling out everywhere. Dude, the Black Keys specifically wanted to see him when he was in town.

   28. BRBrian Redban31:53

       Of course.

   29. JRJoe Rogan31:53

       So I had William come up and do the show. I called him, I go like, "Dude, (laughs) the Black Keys wanna beat you."

   30. BRBrian Redban31:56

       Those guys are, by the way, are the coolest guys I've ever met. (laughs)
4. 45:00 – 1:00:00

   Mm-hmm. And Matt McCusker,…

   1. JRJoe Rogan45:00

   2. BRBrian Redban45:00

      Mm-hmm. And Matt McCusker, you know? He is.

   3. JRJoe Rogan45:02

      Oh, very smart, McCusker.

   4. BRBrian Redban45:03

      Yeah, both of those guys.

   5. JRJoe Rogan45:03

      Cool as shit too.

   6. BRBrian Redban45:04

      Yeah, I love those guys.

   7. JRJoe Rogan45:05

      So nice that they're here.

   8. BRBrian Redban45:06

      It's so cool.

   9. JRJoe Rogan45:06

      Oh.

   10. BRBrian Redban45:06

       That's such a nice bonus. (laughs)

   11. JRJoe Rogan45:07

       The whole Philly crew.

   12. BRBrian Redban45:08

       Yeah. (laughs)

   13. JRJoe Rogan45:08

       Those guys are great. Tommy, those guys are great.

   14. BRBrian Redban45:10

       Yeah.

   15. JRJoe Rogan45:11

       Yeah. Lamer is here now.

   16. BRBrian Redban45:13

       Yep. Joey D- Diaz has been hanging out lately.

   17. JRJoe Rogan45:16

       Mm-hmm.

   18. BRBrian Redban45:16

       Which is so great to see Joey. Oh my God, it's been-

   19. JRJoe Rogan45:18

       Joey's getting a real estate agent.

   20. BRBrian Redban45:20

       Y- yeah. (laughs) That's fucking awesome.

   21. JRJoe Rogan45:21

       Yeah, yeah.

   22. BRBrian Redban45:22

       (laughs)

   23. JRJoe Rogan45:22

       He's gonna get a spot on here. It's, you know, once he got here, he's like, "This is what I've been missing, dog. This is what I've been missing." And this is what I told you, Joey. I know you don't want to totally listen to me. He doesn't want to listen.

   24. BRBrian Redban45:32

       Right.

   25. JRJoe Rogan45:32

       You know, I tell him, "Joey, you really shouldn't be out there by yourself in New Jersey."

   26. BRBrian Redban45:35

       Yeah. You're in Jersey, man. (laughs)

   27. JRJoe Rogan45:37

       Yeah. (laughs) Just-

   28. BRBrian Redban45:37

       That's why you got outta there in the first place. (laughs)

   29. JRJoe Rogan45:39

       It's, Jersey's not bad.

   30. BRBrian Redban45:41

       Right.
5. 1:00:00 – 1:11:32

   Find microplastics. …

   1. JRJoe Rogan1:00:00

      way? And you make it-

   2. BRBrian Redban1:00:00

      Find microplastics.

   3. JRJoe Rogan1:00:00

      ... really convenient to use the plastic.

   4. BRBrian Redban1:00:02

      Yeah.

   5. JRJoe Rogan1:00:02

      Plastic's everywhere. You make it convenient. And so this dumb animal keeps using the plastic over and over and over again, and as it keeps using the plastic, then its species becomes less and less viable.

   6. BRBrian Redban1:00:16

      What if the dogs were AI, and they're the ones doing it? (laughs)

   7. JRJoe Rogan1:00:19

      I don't think so.

   8. JVJamie Vernon1:00:20

      Like, at what temperature does this happens at? You know, I'm just starting to think like we-

   9. JRJoe Rogan1:00:23

      140 degrees.

   10. JVJamie Vernon1:00:24

       Don't bring plastic water bottles into the sauna-

   11. BRBrian Redban1:00:26

       Oh, yeah, definitely.

   12. JVJamie Vernon1:00:27

       ... 'cause you're just like, you're creating more of it.

   13. BRBrian Redban1:00:29

       Yeah.

   14. JRJoe Rogan1:00:29

       Oh, yeah, definitely, if you're doing it in a sauna. "Especially at temperatures higher than above 140." Yeah, "Bottled water companies follow sa- safety, (laughs) safety standards to minimize risk." Sure they do.

   15. JVJamie Vernon1:00:41

       Yeah, I would say.

   16. JRJoe Rogan1:00:41

       Sure they do. What are your safety standards, bitch?

   17. JVJamie Vernon1:00:43

       Bitch, it's 158. Other things said 200.

   18. JRJoe Rogan1:00:46

       Mm.

   19. JVJamie Vernon1:00:46

       There was a test I was just looking at that they tr- uh, at room temperature, there wasn't a lot of activity they found, but as soon as they put it up to 50 degrees Celsius, they started testing all sorts of stuff for showing up.

   20. JRJoe Rogan1:00:56

       Hmm. What is 50 degrees Celsius in, um... That's pretty hot.

   21. JVJamie Vernon1:01:01

       Uh, I don't know.

   22. BRBrian Redban1:01:01

       I- it's like 180 or something like that. But-

   23. JVJamie Vernon1:01:03

       100 would be 212.

   24. JRJoe Rogan1:01:06

       100 is 212?

   25. JVJamie Vernon1:01:07

       Boiling point.

   26. THTony Hinchcliffe1:01:08

       ... it's 50 degrees is 122. And one point of Celsius is a hundred, and Fahrenheit it's 212.

   27. JRJoe Rogan1:01:13

       So, at 122 they start measuring chemicals leaching.

   28. THTony Hinchcliffe1:01:16

       And that's not even the... It could be-

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:01:17

       That could be so.

   30. THTony Hinchcliffe1:01:18

       ... outside here.
