- ASAndrew Schulz
The Joe Rogan Experience.
- JRJoe Rogan
Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. (rock music) Oprah's doing an episode on psychedelics.
- ASAndrew Schulz
God bless.
- JRJoe Rogan
How about that?
- ASAndrew Schulz
God bless. I mean, she's definitely done it.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, you don't do a fucking... Are we rolling yet?
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Are we rolling? Yeah?
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Yeah, you don't do an episode on psychedelics unless you fucking visited the Maya.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Unless you've dabbled.
- JRJoe Rogan
Unless you got in there.
- ASAndrew Schulz
You think it's ayahuasca or mushrooms?
- JRJoe Rogan
Most of those fancy people like to do the ayahuasca-
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... you know? Because then you, you can claim spirituality above all other people. (laughs)
- ASAndrew Schulz
Oh, you think-
- JRJoe Rogan
I've done it.
- ASAndrew Schulz
... there's like a pretentiousness?
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, 100%. There's a, uh, "I've done it. I've done it. I ex- I've experienced the mother god."
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
"The god."
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
"I've experienced Gaia."
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs) Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
It's like, I think, I think people do, really do experience that. But also, there's a certain type of personality that wants to let you know-
- ASAndrew Schulz
That they've experienced it.
- JRJoe Rogan
... that they're enlightened.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- 15:00 – 30:00
Yeah. …
- ASAndrew Schulz
are sexist, they're racist, and there are these bros that are- that are fucked up, and they're radioactive, and they're bad people, and he's got a real problem." So, they're trying to make him radioactive. And I remember seeing the reaction to Trump coming on the pods, and it was the exact same playbook. It was like, "The manosphere pods."
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- ASAndrew Schulz
"They're sexist, they're racist. Look how fucked." And it's like, you're doing the same thing.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- ASAndrew Schulz
You're making it about identity politics. I think Americans are kind of simple in that, like, we want abundance but we want access. So, if eggs are expensive, I can't care about your bathrooms, right? Like, and you need to tap into that feeling right there. So, if I'm a Democrat, I'm just, this is a class issue. But I feel, unfortunately, a lot of them are in the pockets of these wealthy people and their corporations.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, this is, it's all a- it's all a hustle. If we had... The entire time, if we had brilliant people working for the betterment of the United States, it'd be a far better place to live in. We've had a bunch of people that are capitalizing off of the fact they get in this position of extreme influence and wealth.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And they make insane amounts of money for people with $170,000 a year salary.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And they keep it rolling.
- ASAndrew Schulz
So, how do you- how do you that? Like, how do you find... Okay, how do you- how do you find somebody who wants power but is also benevolent? 'Cause like-
- JRJoe Rogan
You gotta get rare human beings.
- ASAndrew Schulz
That's the thing, most people who want power-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- ASAndrew Schulz
... don't exactly wanna give back.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- ASAndrew Schulz
It's a bottomless pit.
- JRJoe Rogan
Bro, have you ever seen people get, like, a little bit of power and lose their fucking marbles?
- ASAndrew Schulz
Like who?
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, I can't say. I can't tell a story-
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
... 'cause it'd be, like, real obvious who I'm talking about. But it's not one of our friends.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Got it.
- JRJoe Rogan
I just don't wanna say it publicly. It's not, you don't even know him.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Okay.
- JRJoe Rogan
But I've seen people with just like, you get a job where you- you're the boss now.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And you just become a cunt and a half. Like, what happened?
- ASAndrew Schulz
Do you think it- it exposes who they always were, or do you think it actually changes their- their character?
- JRJoe Rogan
It's probably both. It's probably both. They probably had weak character to begin with-
- 30:00 – 45:00
(laughs) …

But meanwhile, it's just a show that's being put on for our consciousness.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Okay, so it's a show being put on for our consciousness, right? And then somebody's putting on the show. And then we get the ability to go to the moon, and then they gotta scramble and make a moon?
- JRJoe Rogan
... no, there's a moon. I mean, it doesn't matter.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Okay.
- JRJoe Rogan
Wherever you, wherever you go, there is a place-
- ASAndrew Schulz
'Cause that is kinda funny is like, if like, our technology gets so good and they're just going, "Fuck, we gotta make this thing real?"
- JRJoe Rogan
This isn't-
- ASAndrew Schulz
Like, they're on the way.
- JRJoe Rogan
... d- I'm well aware for your, your, like criticizing me. This is a dopey way to describe it. But I, I, you know, if the tree falls in the forest and there's no one there-
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... does it make a sound?
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yes.
- JRJoe Rogan
I don't even know if the tree falls if there's no one there.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Oh, God. That's not... (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs) I'm not convinced.
- ASAndrew Schulz
J- I'm not convinced.
- JRJoe Rogan
Josh, Josh, Josh, Josh, Josh, Josh, Josh. I'm not convinced.
- ASAndrew Schulz
So the tree... Okay. Okay. So-
- JRJoe Rogan
I think if you take a trip to the Pacific Northwest, you will find trees.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yes. Yes.
- JRJoe Rogan
I just don't know if they're there all the time.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Some of... So they're only there in reference to us looking at them? Oh, I get what you're saying.
- JRJoe Rogan
I think that's-
- ASAndrew Schulz
Wait, wait, wait. So you're playing a video game.
- JRJoe Rogan
Uh-huh.
- ASAndrew Schulz
And as you move throughout the map of the video game-
- JRJoe Rogan
It has to render new levels.
- ASAndrew Schulz
... it presents itself.
- 45:00 – 1:00:00
Yeah. …
- JRJoe Rogan
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And there's no plane.
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
They never booked a return flight.
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
So, we try (laughs) ... So, we try to get a return flight 'cause they had her, got her a little-
- ASAndrew Schulz
(coughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
... shitty private jet to get there.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And so then we try to get a return flight. We cannot. I call my service. They can't. The, uh, quickest they can do it is in the morning.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
Like, "What do you guys wanna do?" So, I, we decide that we're gonna get a limo, and so have a car service-
- ASAndrew Schulz
And drive back.
- JRJoe Rogan
... drive us back to LA.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Love it.
- JRJoe Rogan
So, it was four-hour drive or whatever the fuck it is.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
So, it's me, my wife, Whitney, and Lex.
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs) I remember you just sending me videos-
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- ASAndrew Schulz
... of Lex passed out at different parts of the casino. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs) And he's just ... He misses it.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's at the airport.
- ASAndrew Schulz
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
That's, that's at the airport.
- ASAndrew Schulz
This is, but he's like that for the last 12 hours. He was like that at the wedding.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, yeah. He was obliterated. I mean, he went hard. That boy goes hard.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- 1:00:00 – 1:07:32
Yeah. …
- ASAndrew Schulz
I'm dumb.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- ASAndrew Schulz
I'm dumb, then. So, why doesn't somebody meet me where I'm stupid and start at least making me feel like I'm not an asshole for the way that I, you know, for my, I guess, you could say political leanings now? Yeah, I feel like they need to meet... And, and it's a very simple thing. Make it a class issue and I think they win. And say what you want about America, but, like, I think it's better if we have two president, or two people running for president that we're stoked about, and it's a really hard decision.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, yeah.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Like-
- JRJoe Rogan
That would be wonderful. Yeah, but that's not what we had. Um, we had one group of people that legitimately wanted to change things-
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... and now we're gonna see what happens if they do. What, but you're seeing weird stuff today that you never seen before-
- ASAndrew Schulz
Like what?
- JRJoe Rogan
... which is, like, a real adjustment to the age of the internet. One of the things you're seeing is, I don't know if you saw the 22 different Congresspeople who were all saying the exact same line with the word shit in it.
- ASAndrew Schulz
What was the line?
- JRJoe Rogan
So, it's like, it's this speech.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're reading it verbatim.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
They're all reading it and doing it to a microphone as if it's a rant.
- ASAndrew Schulz
Mm.
- JRJoe Rogan
But they're all doing from the same script, and the shit ain't right-
- ASAndrew Schulz
So, this is-
- JRJoe Rogan
... is the be- the shit ain't right-
- ASAndrew Schulz
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... is the beginning of it. How m- when in the history of the United States-
- ASAndrew Schulz
As a politician.
- JRJoe Rogan
... has a co- politicians said shit?
- ASAndrew Schulz
Said, said shit, yeah, yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And not just one.... but 22 of them in tape recor- y- can you pull it up just so we can see it? Because it's so nuts. When you see them all together-
- SPSpeaker
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... it's just, uh, b- like they have it on screens as tiles, and they're all saying the same words.
- SPSpeaker
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
They all have their own little flare they put on it.
