   21. ABAntonio Brown0:36

       (laughs) I would like to think so. (laughs)

   22. JRJoe Rogan0:41

       (laughs) But, like, your social media presence, like ... I forget who. I think Tony Hinchcliffe told me about you.

   23. ABAntonio Brown0:47

       Yeah.

   24. JRJoe Rogan0:47

       He's like, "Dude, you have to follow Antonio Brown."

   25. ABAntonio Brown0:49

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan0:49

       "You must fo- He's the most must follow on the internet." I'm like, "Really?" And then I go to your page, and I'm fucking dying laughing.

   27. ABAntonio Brown0:57

       (laughs)

   28. JRJoe Rogan0:57

       We're sharing it around the green room at the comedy store like, "Ah!" And then when I won cracker of the day, I was like, "Yes!"

   29. ABAntonio Brown1:04

       Yes. (laughs) Of the year.

   30. JRJoe Rogan1:06

       Yes. Cracker of the year, that's right.
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   (laughs) …

   1. ABAntonio Brown15:00

      video. So, as soon as I walked off the field, they released the music. Uh, I ended up linking with Kanye West right after.

   2. JRJoe Rogan15:08

      (laughs)

   3. ABAntonio Brown15:08

      (laughs) After that, I was doing Rolling Loud. After that ... You know what I'm saying? So, for me, I was grateful, you know, as soon as I walked off the field. Music song dropped-

   4. JRJoe Rogan15:18

      How'd you link up with Kanye?

   5. ABAntonio Brown15:20

      Man, he was looking for me right when I walked off the field.

   6. JRJoe Rogan15:23

      Really?

   7. ABAntonio Brown15:23

      Yeah. They was calling me, uh, Justin Laboy, like, uh, calling me in New York, like, "Yo, Kanye wanna meet you." I ended up flying to LA with, uh ... to meet, uh, Rich with Fashion Nova. And, uh, we met right in Craig's, randomly in Craig's, but he was looking for me in LA, and after that, ended up hanging with him, making his album, Donda 2, and then-

   8. JRJoe Rogan15:44

      Wow.

   9. ABAntonio Brown15:45

      ... just getting opportunities, so ...

   10. JRJoe Rogan15:46

       That's crazy.

   11. ABAntonio Brown15:47

       I've been blessed to be able to have that happen for me, you know, coming off the field.

   12. JRJoe Rogan15:50

       What is it like working with Kanye? 'Cause I can imagine that motherfucker's-

   13. ABAntonio Brown15:53

       Kanye, a lot of energy, genius-

   14. JRJoe Rogan15:55

       ... driven.

   15. ABAntonio Brown15:55

       ... uh, meetings at eight o'clock. All the music engi-

   16. JRJoe Rogan15:58

       8:00 AM or 8:00 PM?

   17. ABAntonio Brown15:59

       8:00 AM.

   18. JRJoe Rogan16:00

       Really?

   19. ABAntonio Brown16:00

       Every day, yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan16:01

       Really?

   21. ABAntonio Brown16:02

       All the engineers there, uh, everyone on the team, uh-

   22. JRJoe Rogan16:06

       That's unusual. Rappers at 8:00 AM?

   23. ABAntonio Brown16:08

       Nah, ye- ... Kanye is really a, a business guy who put in a lot of work. I know a lot of people see his rants and him going off, but he's really passionate about his work and, uh ...

   24. JRJoe Rogan16:17

       He's a genius.

   25. ABAntonio Brown16:18

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan16:18

       He's just scattered.

   27. ABAntonio Brown16:19

       Literally, literally.

   28. JRJoe Rogan16:19

       He's all over the place. And sometimes he goes a little off, a little ou- out- off the reservation, but-

   29. ABAntonio Brown16:23

       I feel like he think in a lot of forms that-

   30. JRJoe Rogan16:25

       Yes.
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   Porn only kind of…

   1. NANarrator30:00

      I don't... No, I'm not making any accusations.

   2. JRJoe Rogan30:00

      Porn only kind of exposed it.

   3. NANarrator30:02

      It's all, it's fu- it all, it's over.

   4. JRJoe Rogan30:04

      'Cause Pornhub was the only one that was looking at it going, "Am I going to jail?"

   5. ABAntonio Brown30:08

      Yeah, you gotta be careful.

   6. JRJoe Rogan30:08

      Like, "Is this, is this legal?"

   7. ABAntonio Brown30:09

      Yeah, I feel like you shou- I was thinking about launching a coin myself that's really legit, that you don't own, you, you don't sell it, you don't rip it. That way if it tank, they make they money. I feel like you could go to focus.xyz@ab and check it out.

   8. JRJoe Rogan30:23

      Is that yours?

   9. ABAntonio Brown30:24

      Yeah.

   10. JRJoe Rogan30:24

       Okay, so, um, so you promise not to pump and dump?

   11. ABAntonio Brown30:28

       Yeah, no pump and dump. It's an unruggable. Like, nobody could pump and dump it.

   12. JRJoe Rogan30:32

       Oh, you can't pull the rug out?

   13. ABAntonio Brown30:33

       Yeah, you can't pull the rug out, so that way-

   14. JRJoe Rogan30:35

       Really?

   15. ABAntonio Brown30:35

       ... it just stays grows, 'cause that's why I feel like that's why people get in trouble with all these coins, just pumping, dumping.

   16. JRJoe Rogan30:41

       Right.

   17. ABAntonio Brown30:41

       People don't wanna be scammed or fucked over or manipulated.

   18. JRJoe Rogan30:45

       Exactly.

   19. ABAntonio Brown30:45

       So I feel like you gotta have, for me, to make more coin, I feel like we gotta make one that won't sell or tank.

   20. JRJoe Rogan30:51

       Yeah.

   21. ABAntonio Brown30:51

       An unguardable one that you could...... focus on. I think I'm gonna put it out now. It's on focus.xyz/ab, if you wanna check it out.

   22. JRJoe Rogan30:58

       There was, um, this one coin that Khamzat Chimaev, the UFC fighter, released. That was, uh, they, they were claiming that he did a pump and dump. And they was like, "You ripped off your fans." I'm like, "Man-"

   23. ABAntonio Brown31:08

       Yeah, you can't rip off your fans.

   24. JRJoe Rogan31:09

       You can't rip off your fans, obviously.

   25. ABAntonio Brown31:11

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan31:11

       But also, I don't know if the people that are buying those coins are fans. I think they're gamblers. I think those people are just gamblers, and they're just trying to figure out, "Okay, if I buy in now," and-

   27. ABAntonio Brown31:22

       Yeah.

   28. JRJoe Rogan31:23

       ... you know, they're fucking-

   29. ABAntonio Brown31:23

       (laughs) Gotta make money.

   30. JRJoe Rogan31:23

       They probably got, like, their finger over the sell button, waiting for it to get to a certain number, like, "Go!"
4. 45:00 – 1:00:00

   You off the grid?…

   1. JRJoe Rogan45:00

      is he up to?

   2. ABAntonio Brown45:00

      You off the grid?

   3. JRJoe Rogan45:01

      He's off the grid. What is this motherfucker ... What is he doing?

   4. ABAntonio Brown45:05

      (laughs) What the hell's going on?

   5. JRJoe Rogan45:06

      Yeah. Man, kids today, they don't have any fucking privacy.

   6. ABAntonio Brown45:10

      Nah, not everything is exposed.

   7. JRJoe Rogan45:12

      Everything's exposed.

   8. ABAntonio Brown45:14

      Yeah.

   9. JRJoe Rogan45:14

      What year were you born?

   10. ABAntonio Brown45:16

       '88. 1988.

   11. JRJoe Rogan45:17

       Okay. So by the time you were 20 years old, phones were just starting to arrive, right?

   12. ABAntonio Brown45:23

       Yeah. Almost popping.

   13. JRJoe Rogan45:23

       Like 98-ish.

   14. ABAntonio Brown45:25

       Yeah, the Sidekick.

   15. JRJoe Rogan45:25

       Kind of every... Right.

   16. ABAntonio Brown45:27

       Flip phones.

   17. JRJoe Rogan45:28

       Sidekicks.

   18. ABAntonio Brown45:28

       NexTel.

   19. JRJoe Rogan45:28

       Remember the Sidekick?

   20. ABAntonio Brown45:29

       Yeah, flip it over.

   21. JRJoe Rogan45:30

       Everybody s- ... I was so jealous. Like, "Wow, you got a keyboard?"

   22. ABAntonio Brown45:32

       You need that. Yeah, it was amazing.

   23. JRJoe Rogan45:33

       "That's crazy. You got a little keyboard."

   24. ABAntonio Brown45:35

       That was fire.

   25. JRJoe Rogan45:36

       And then people's Sidekicks were getting hacked. Remember Paris Hilton? Some pussy photos got out, I believe.

   26. ABAntonio Brown45:43

       Yeah. (laughs) I remember that. (laughs)

   27. JRJoe Rogan45:43

       (laughs)

   28. ABAntonio Brown45:43

       She had designer vagina.

   29. JRJoe Rogan45:45

       (laughs)

   30. ABAntonio Brown45:47

       (laughs)
5. 1:00:00 – 1:03:20

   Get, not getting sleep.…

   1. ABAntonio Brown1:00:00

      you messing with girls, and-

   2. JRJoe Rogan1:00:02

      Get, not getting sleep.

   3. ABAntonio Brown1:00:03

      Yeah.

   4. JRJoe Rogan1:00:03

      Yeah.

   5. ABAntonio Brown1:00:03

      Not getting sleep.

   6. JRJoe Rogan1:00:04

      Yeah.

   7. ABAntonio Brown1:00:04

      Not eating the right foods.

   8. JRJoe Rogan1:00:05

      Eating bad food. Right.

   9. ABAntonio Brown1:00:05

      Exactly.

   10. JRJoe Rogan1:00:06

       Yep. Yep.

   11. ABAntonio Brown1:00:06

       Not, not making it work out and hitting those ... (bell dings)

   12. JRJoe Rogan1:00:09

       Yep.

   13. ABAntonio Brown1:00:09

       Yeah. Studying that film. Discipline the most important.

   14. JRJoe Rogan1:00:12

       It's so important for everything in life.

   15. ABAntonio Brown1:00:15

       Yeah.

   16. JRJoe Rogan1:00:15

       So, like, to think that The Secret is the only thing, you just have to-

   17. ABAntonio Brown1:00:18

       No, no.

   18. JRJoe Rogan1:00:18

       ... think around and visualize it, like, uh-uh.

   19. ABAntonio Brown1:00:20

       Yeah. It's not the only thing.

   20. JRJoe Rogan1:00:21

       No. It's, it's an aspect that I think is real.

   21. ABAntonio Brown1:00:24

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan1:00:24

       But the problem is people put so much emphasis on it that it becomes bullshit. It becomes like woo-woo. They, th- they don't-

   23. ABAntonio Brown1:00:30

       Exactly.

   24. JRJoe Rogan1:00:30

       ... think it's real. But it is, it is-

   25. ABAntonio Brown1:00:32

       It's annoying.

   26. JRJoe Rogan1:00:32

       ... an aspect. You know, Mike Tyson used to get hypnotized.

   27. ABAntonio Brown1:00:35

       Gotta hypnotize yourself. I feel like it just make your vision a part of your spirit.

   28. JRJoe Rogan1:00:40

       Hmm.

   29. ABAntonio Brown1:00:40

       Anytime you, you know, 'cause I feel like you could write stuff down, write aco- af- affirmations, affirmations.

   30. JRJoe Rogan1:00:47

       Mm-hmm.
