   2. NANarrator0:04

      The Joe Rogan Experience. (rock music)

   3. JRJoe Rogan0:06

      Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. It's the end of the world as we know it. How are you feeling?

   4. TDTim Dillon0:16

      I'm feeling good, thank you for having-

   5. JRJoe Rogan0:17

      Real good.

   6. TDTim Dillon0:17

      I heard you were having a problem getting big guests-

   7. JRJoe Rogan0:20

      (laughs)

   8. TDTim Dillon0:21

      ... and things were not going good. And I, I said, "Hey, I'll fly in and, and I'll help." I'm always here to help.

   9. JRJoe Rogan0:27

      Well, we were talking about doing a live show-

   10. TDTim Dillon0:28

       Yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan0:29

       ... at the Mothership.

   12. TDTim Dillon0:30

       Sure.

   13. JRJoe Rogan0:30

       But then somebody told a Puerto Rican joke, and we're like, "Maybe that's not a good idea."

   14. TDTim Dillon0:33

       Yeah, I mean... (laughs)

   15. JRJoe Rogan0:34

       (laughs)

   16. TDTim Dillon0:37

       It was, uh, you know, it might have been. We don't know. It could've been interesting, could've been, uh-

   17. JRJoe Rogan0:42

       It would've been fun, but-

   18. TDTim Dillon0:43

       Could've been fun.

   19. JRJoe Rogan0:44

       ... you know, whatever. What are you gonna do?

   20. TDTim Dillon0:45

       Yeah, it's election, it's election day.

   21. JRJoe Rogan0:47

       If, uh, if Trump loses, he's on suicide watch.

   22. TDTim Dillon0:50

       If Trump loses, we're gonna have to hide him.

   23. JRJoe Rogan0:52

       (laughs)

   24. TDTim Dillon0:52

       We're gonna have to pay a cartel to shelter him for a, a period of months or years.

   25. JRJoe Rogan0:58

       They'll take him in Canada. He can just move up to Canada.

   26. TDTim Dillon1:00

       Yeah.

   27. JRJoe Rogan1:00

       Sort of change his rhetoric a little bit.

   28. TDTim Dillon1:02

       Yeah, yeah. No, if, if Trump loses, it definitely, he definitely will have to, uh-

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:06

       Kind of tone it down.

   30. TDTim Dillon1:07

       Eh, you know, he might have to-
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   Right. …

   1. TDTim Dillon15:00

   2. JRJoe Rogan15:00

      Right.

   3. TDTim Dillon15:00

      And I think he was trying to avoid that.

   4. JRJoe Rogan15:03

      Yeah.

   5. TDTim Dillon15:03

      I think he was trying to avoid a dramatic escalation in that war.

   6. JRJoe Rogan15:07

      Well, he's probably fucking right.

   7. TDTim Dillon15:08

      So do people that want a dramatic escalation in that war-

   8. JRJoe Rogan15:11

      (laughs)

   9. TDTim Dillon15:12

      ... the people that think that's a good idea, he's, um, an enemy.

   10. JRJoe Rogan15:15

       Yeah, y-... Fucking Christ. It's... That's, that's something I think people should be voting on. Imagine if you put it up to vote for people, like, "Hey, do you guys think we should fund Ukraine to the tu- tune of 190 billion?"

   11. TDTim Dillon15:29

       Yeah.

   12. JRJoe Rogan15:29

       And maybe have someone else come along and say, "This is an alternative of what we could do with that money."

   13. TDTim Dillon15:32

       Right.

   14. JRJoe Rogan15:33

       You know?

   15. TDTim Dillon15:33

       There's no vote on that. There's no vote on a lot of the things that we're told to live with.

   16. JRJoe Rogan15:40

       Yeah.

   17. TDTim Dillon15:40

       There's never been a, a, a, a vote on immigration. There's votes for candidates to support it or don't support it, but there's never been a vote on should, you know, "Should we secure the southern border," would unanimously be voted on.

   18. JRJoe Rogan15:53

       Yeah.

   19. TDTim Dillon15:53

       And people would unanimously pretty much say, "Absolutely."

   20. JRJoe Rogan15:57

       Well, how about the voter ID laws?

   21. TDTim Dillon15:58

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan15:58

       84% of America think we should have voter ID.

   23. TDTim Dillon16:01

       Right.

   24. JRJoe Rogan16:02

       Uh-huh.

   25. TDTim Dillon16:02

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan16:02

       I showed my ID today. Um, Jamie, what's the total so far? What's the, like, the latest results?

   27. NANarrator16:07

       We won't know for a few hours.

   28. TDTim Dillon16:09

       So here's what I will say about-

   29. JRJoe Rogan16:10

       We don't know anything?

   30. NANarrator16:10

       The polls don't close until-
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   No. Joe! And you…

   1. TDTim Dillon30:00

      No. Joe! And you didn't?

   2. JRJoe Rogan30:01

      I fucked up. I fucked up.

   3. TDTim Dillon30:02

      Oh, my God.

   4. JRJoe Rogan30:02

      It was early, early on when he was writing a book. Remember when he wrote a book?

   5. TDTim Dillon30:07

      I remember that.

   6. JRJoe Rogan30:08

      Yeah, they- they reached out to- to get press. And then the laptop story kind of blew up.

   7. TDTim Dillon30:13

      Oh.

   8. JRJoe Rogan30:13

      And-

   9. TDTim Dillon30:13

      Yeah, well then-

   10. JRJoe Rogan30:14

       And then I was like, "Get him on." And then they were like, "No."

   11. TDTim Dillon30:16

       "No, we d-... You don't want a pre-laptop."

   12. JRJoe Rogan30:20

       Little-

   13. TDTim Dillon30:20

       "You want him post-laptop."

   14. JRJoe Rogan30:21

       This was post-laptop, but they thought-

   15. TDTim Dillon30:23

       Yeah.

   16. JRJoe Rogan30:23

       ... they had squashed it. So this was before Elon had purchased Twitter.

   17. TDTim Dillon30:27

       Gotcha.

   18. JRJoe Rogan30:27

       Once Elon purchased Twitter and then they understood-

   19. TDTim Dillon30:29

       Yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan30:30

       ... that there was a coordinated effort by 51 former intelligence agents-

   21. TDTim Dillon30:33

       Right.

   22. JRJoe Rogan30:33

       ... to say that the laptop was Russian disinformation.

   23. TDTim Dillon30:36

       That's right.

   24. JRJoe Rogan30:36

       And then- and then the fucking cat's out of the bag and then everybody knows what's going on, but...

   25. TDTim Dillon30:40

       Well, this is- you also the problem with saying that Donald Trump is a unique threat to democracy when you have...... literally, like, credible, documented examples of intelligence officials lying to the public and facing zero consequences.

   26. JRJoe Rogan30:57

       Yeah.

   27. TDTim Dillon30:57

       And trying to manipulate an election.

   28. JRJoe Rogan30:59

       Yeah.

   29. TDTim Dillon30:59

       I mean, that's, that's, that's a huge problem.

   30. JRJoe Rogan31:01

       Well, Google's doing that right now. You know? Have you ever seen-
4. 45:00 – 1:00:00

   God. I mean, it…

   1. TDTim Dillon45:00

   2. JRJoe Rogan45:00

      God. I mean, it just... The, the, the options were fly to her and meet for 45 minutes, and I was like... (breathes deeply)

   3. TDTim Dillon45:06

      That's not what you do.

   4. JRJoe Rogan45:08

      It's... (sighs) You know, Elon said it best yesterday. He goes, "You really find out about people in hour two and three."

   5. TDTim Dillon45:13

      Yeah.

   6. JRJoe Rogan45:13

      Yeah. Like, uh, you could bullshit people for 45 minutes-

   7. TDTim Dillon45:16

      Right.

   8. JRJoe Rogan45:16

      ... but hour two or three, something's gonna come up.

   9. TDTim Dillon45:19

      Well, the great thing about your show is that it's not scripted talking points where people don't come on with an agenda and go, "Here, I want to say this, that, and the other thing." You sit there for hours, you talk to them, you have a real conversation, and what they really think will come out.

   10. JRJoe Rogan45:32

       And, but here's the thing, I'm gonna be nice to you.

   11. TDTim Dillon45:35

       Yeah.

   12. JRJoe Rogan45:35

       I'm gonna be nice to Kamala Harris. I, I would be so friendly to her. I wouldn't try any gotcha bullshit. I'm not interested in doing that. I-

   13. TDTim Dillon45:44

       Right.

   14. JRJoe Rogan45:44

       I genuinely want to know, like, who she is-

   15. TDTim Dillon45:46

       You'd shoot guns with her? She has a Glock.

   16. JRJoe Rogan45:47

       ... as a person. Sure, let's go shoot. I'll take her to the range.

   17. TDTim Dillon45:49

       If she was on this show getting high-

   18. JRJoe Rogan45:51

       Oh, my God.

   19. TDTim Dillon45:52

       ... smoking weed, and then waving a gun around-

   20. JRJoe Rogan45:54

       Well, she didn't have to wave the gun.

   21. TDTim Dillon45:55

       ... then I vote.

   22. JRJoe Rogan45:55

       That's, you know, that's b- bad gun handling.

   23. TDTim Dillon45:59

       Of course.

   24. JRJoe Rogan45:59

       Really, that's-

   25. TDTim Dillon45:59

       But it's... I understand.

   26. JRJoe Rogan46:01

       Gun safety's important. Don't point guns at people.

   27. TDTim Dillon46:02

       Sure, but it's fun.

   28. JRJoe Rogan46:03

       Even when they're unloaded, Tim Dillon.

   29. TDTim Dillon46:04

       Yeah, but it's fun.

   30. JRJoe Rogan46:05

       It would be fun, but here's the thing. If she did come on and just had a little cocktail.
5. 1:00:00 – 1:09:46

   Yeah. …

   1. TDTim Dillon1:00:00

      The problem really is you're taking on... When you take on this behemoth, this thing that we've built-

   2. JRJoe Rogan1:00:10

      Yeah.

   3. TDTim Dillon1:00:10

      ... it's very difficult to make inroads. And I wish Trump luck. I wish anyone luck that is trying to take this blob on, this-

   4. JRJoe Rogan1:00:21

      Also-

   5. TDTim Dillon1:00:22

      ... unruly, unelected, unaccountable-

   6. JRJoe Rogan1:00:25

      You don't know how to do the job.

   7. TDTim Dillon1:00:26

      ... yeah.

   8. JRJoe Rogan1:00:26

      You've never done it before.

   9. TDTim Dillon1:00:27

      Yeah.

   10. JRJoe Rogan1:00:27

       And they don't tell you how to do the job until you get in there. The- no one-

   11. TDTim Dillon1:00:30

       Right.

   12. JRJoe Rogan1:00:30

       ... explains to you what the fuck really goes on until you're behind the closed doors.

   13. TDTim Dillon1:00:33

       Yeah.

   14. JRJoe Rogan1:00:34

       That's why you got a guy like Putin. He knows how to run Russia.

   15. TDTim Dillon1:00:37

       Yeah.

   16. JRJoe Rogan1:00:37

       He's been running Russia for 25 fucking years.

   17. TDTim Dillon1:00:39

       Yeah.

   18. JRJoe Rogan1:00:40

       This guy knows how to do that job.

   19. TDTim Dillon1:00:42

       Yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan1:00:42

       He's really good at it. Like-

   21. TDTim Dillon1:00:43

       He's very good at it.

   22. JRJoe Rogan1:00:44

       ... if you take a comic on the road with you and he's gotta do an arena, and he's only been doing comedy for 10 months, you're like, "Hey, buddy."

   23. TDTim Dillon1:00:49

       Well, Putin's job is to just mediate conflicts between oligarchs, which is what he does very well.

   24. JRJoe Rogan1:00:54

       Mm-hmm.

   25. TDTim Dillon1:00:54

       And I think that's, that's what people misunderstand about Russia. I've- I've read a lot about Russia.

   26. JRJoe Rogan1:00:58

       And poison rivals. He's really good at that.

   27. TDTim Dillon1:01:00

       He's got... Well, who... You know, people get sick, Joe.

   28. JRJoe Rogan1:01:03

       They do.

   29. TDTim Dillon1:01:03

       And I was so mad they all got Russian money. They gave Tim Pool and all these people Russian money. I've been defending Russia for free for two years on my show.

   30. JRJoe Rogan1:01:11

       Well, how-
