      (drums) Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. (rock music) Hello?

   4. TDTim Dillon0:13

      Hey, Tim Dillon.

   5. JRJoe Rogan0:14

      How are you?

   6. TDTim Dillon0:15

      I'm much better now that the ladies are back from space. I was worried sick.

   7. JRJoe Rogan0:17

      Thank you for having me. What were they up there, 10 minutes?

   8. TDTim Dillon0:20

      Well, it was very profound. I don't know-

   9. JRJoe Rogan0:22

      Yeah.

   10. TDTim Dillon0:22

       ... if you've seen Katy Perry talk about it, but she's basically a guru now.

   11. JRJoe Rogan0:25

       Yeah. What were her findings? That's my question.

   12. TDTim Dillon0:27

       Well, she brought a daisy-

   13. JRJoe Rogan0:28

       What did she learn? Right. (laughs)

   14. TDTim Dillon0:29

       ... which is super important. Shows you how quick the flight was.

   15. JRJoe Rogan0:33

       Yeah.

   16. TDTim Dillon0:33

       The dead daisy that's, like, snipped from its life source was still, still alive-

   17. JRJoe Rogan0:39

       (laughs)

   18. TDTim Dillon0:39

       ... or still vibrant.

   19. JRJoe Rogan0:40

       Yeah. And it's so, it's so-

   20. TDTim Dillon0:41

       Look at her.

   21. JRJoe Rogan0:42

       ... this.

   22. TDTim Dillon0:42

       Yeah. << Shut it, Daisy. >>

   23. JRJoe Rogan0:43

       Wow.

   24. TDTim Dillon0:44

       Look at her nails, so pretty.

   25. JRJoe Rogan0:47

       Now, so they go up there, and they float for, like, 10 minutes?

   26. TDTim Dillon0:50

       Mm, at least.

   27. JRJoe Rogan0:51

       And then they come down.

   28. TDTim Dillon0:52

       Let's not minimize this.

   29. JRJoe Rogan0:53

       No, I, I know.

   30. TDTim Dillon0:53

       Let's, uh-
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   That's what I heard.…

   1. JRJoe Rogan15:00

   2. TDTim Dillon15:00

      That's what I heard. There's a woke right now.

   3. JRJoe Rogan15:01

      Yes, and they're-

   4. TDTim Dillon15:02

      Fascinating.

   5. JRJoe Rogan15:03

      ... they're, they're co-opting.

   6. TDTim Dillon15:04

      I still haven't accepted the fact that I've left the left.

   7. JRJoe Rogan15:06

      I did a CNN interview for an hour because I'm promoting my special, and then-

   8. TDTim Dillon15:11

      Oh, my God. Did you really?

   9. JRJoe Rogan15:12

      ... I... Yeah, and they asked me-

   10. TDTim Dillon15:12

       Who'd you talk to?

   11. JRJoe Rogan15:13

       This girl, Elle Reeves.

   12. TDTim Dillon15:14

       Was she cool?

   13. JRJoe Rogan15:15

       Elle, she was cool. She does all the... You know when you see the Vice documentaries where she talks to the Nazis and the incels?

   14. TDTim Dillon15:20

       Oh, Jesus, she does that?

   15. JRJoe Rogan15:21

       It was that chick.

   16. TDTim Dillon15:23

       Oh, whoa.

   17. JRJoe Rogan15:23

       And they sent her in. I-

   18. TDTim Dillon15:24

       Oh, that's a good move for them.

   19. JRJoe Rogan15:25

       I was like, "This is hilarious." So I'm sitting there and she sits down, she's like, "Are there any left-wing comedians?" And I name 10 of them that are all in arenas. And she goes, "Oh." 'Cause their whole thing now is that podcasters are the most powerful people in the world. And she goes, "Do you think your friends are the new establishment?" I said, "Well, there's 22 intelligence agencies and it's hard to legace media. There's lots of Ivy League schools. There's this, there's that. Do I think Theo Von's the new establishment? No."

   20. TDTim Dillon15:51

       (laughs)

   21. JRJoe Rogan15:52

       "I don't think so. I think, (laughs) I think you ran a really unpopular candidate. I don't think Americans like child sex changes."

   22. TDTim Dillon15:59

       Yeah.

   23. JRJoe Rogan15:59

       "And I don't think they want an open border. And I think if you'd, you know, co-opted some of those issues, you might've won." They said to me at CNN, they're like, "We're editing the interview." I said, "Put the hour out." I sat there for an hour and, and we had a nice conversation, but, you know, we talked for one hour. And I was like, "Put it out." I'm like, "I understand if you can't put it out." Uh, and then she goes like this, she goes, um, "I can't believe you'd show up. Um, people have said that they can't come on here because Joe Rogan would get mad at them." I said, "That's absolutely ridiculous."

   24. TDTim Dillon16:31

       Why would I care?

   25. JRJoe Rogan16:31

       I said, "He doesn't care. He would never care." I said-

   26. TDTim Dillon16:34

       Oh, that's so silly.

   27. JRJoe Rogan16:35

       "It's the silliest thing ever."

   28. TDTim Dillon16:36

       They think we're at war.

   29. JRJoe Rogan16:38

       I just said, "Put out the thing. Put out the hour online. If you can only put out a few minutes on, on network, fine. But it's wrong to have someone come in and talk for an hour-"

   30. TDTim Dillon16:47

       Right, and then-
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   Right. …

   1. TDTim Dillon30:00

      the amount of, uh, bedrooms that were in a place.

   2. JRJoe Rogan30:02

      Right.

   3. TDTim Dillon30:03

      Because if it's four bedrooms, you get one tax rate. If it's five, it's more-

   4. JRJoe Rogan30:07

      Right.

   5. TDTim Dillon30:07

      So she lied. It was a five, and she said it was a four.

   6. JRJoe Rogan30:09

      Right. Well, this is what they all do. So I think, really, the funny thing about all the cases that they brought against Trump, a lot of those cases were rooted in a, uh, just politicized version of something that's pretty standard that a lot of people have done.

   7. TDTim Dillon30:27

      Yeah, they always overvalue their properties.

   8. JRJoe Rogan30:29

      Always overvalue properties, and people get away with it. And it's not, uh, you know-

   9. TDTim Dillon30:34

      It's not a crime, but here's the thing about the Trump thing.

   10. JRJoe Rogan30:36

       It's not, it's not something that... Yeah.

   11. TDTim Dillon30:37

       Is that all the people had been paid. So, not only was it profitable for the banks. He paid everything on time.

   12. JRJoe Rogan30:42

       Yeah.

   13. TDTim Dillon30:43

       The loan... There's n- There was no criminal, like, there's no crime. No one got victimized. Nothing, nothing happened.

   14. JRJoe Rogan30:50

       Right.

   15. TDTim Dillon30:50

       They profited.

   16. JRJoe Rogan30:51

       Right.

   17. TDTim Dillon30:51

       ... and then this crazy lady, with a terrible past, thought that she was gonna be able to pull this off because she was on the team that she thought was gonna win.

   18. JRJoe Rogan30:59

       Yeah.

   19. TDTim Dillon30:59

       Like, you talk about putting all your eggs in one basket. Like they got-

   20. JRJoe Rogan31:02

       Well, yeah.

   21. TDTim Dillon31:02

       ... a bunch of morons-

   22. JRJoe Rogan31:03

       It feels-

   23. TDTim Dillon31:04

       ... to sign in on these things.

   24. JRJoe Rogan31:05

       It feels like you have ... There's some- we're in some kind of cold war between two factions in American politics that are using courts and lawyers to go at each other.

   25. TDTim Dillon31:18

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan31:18

       It's not a hot war. People aren't fighting in the streets, but it does seem to be ... These parties seem to no longer view each other as different sides of the same coin. There seems to be, especially when it comes to Trump, it seems to be like they cannot, you know, see him as anything other than an existential threat that has to be vanquished at any cost.

   27. TDTim Dillon31:43

       Right. And the problem with that is when you deny good things and only highlight bad things, everybody knows it. Well, now you're playing a game, and your game is I never tell the truth, I tell you parts of the truth that I like.

   28. JRJoe Rogan31:56

       Yeah. And you gotta win that game.

   29. TDTim Dillon31:58

       Yeah.

   30. JRJoe Rogan31:58

       If you're playing that game, you gotta win.
4. 45:00 – 1:00:00

   W- one of the…

   1. TDTim Dillon45:01

      Christian.

   2. JRJoe Rogan45:01

      W- one of the big things in America-

   3. TDTim Dillon45:03

      I'm telling you, got kooky on that.

   4. JRJoe Rogan45:03

      Yeah, of course.

   5. TDTim Dillon45:04

      The meth got him.

   6. JRJoe Rogan45:05

      Yes. Listen, there are a lot of people qu- question World War II for not good reasons, of course.

   7. TDTim Dillon45:09

      Right.

   8. JRJoe Rogan45:09

      It's like people that bring up the age of consent. And you go-

   9. TDTim Dillon45:12

      Right.

   10. JRJoe Rogan45:12

       ... "Wait a minute."

   11. TDTim Dillon45:12

       Yeah, "Hey."

   12. JRJoe Rogan45:13

       You know? "What's going on?"

   13. TDTim Dillon45:14

       "What are you doing?" (laughs)

   14. JRJoe Rogan45:15

       There are pe- (laughs) There are people, I think, that do launder, uh, a- not great reasons for que- for questioning World War II through whatever. However-

   15. TDTim Dillon45:25

       No doubt. No doubt.

   16. JRJoe Rogan45:26

       No doubt. There is a very interesting... The, the teeth really come out, the gnashing of teeth come out in this country when you question at all the American war machine.

   17. TDTim Dillon45:39

       Yes.

   18. JRJoe Rogan45:40

       And the pageantry, uh, of war and the, um, you know, iconography of the state and of war and of how important it is and how just it always is, and how we're always on the right side of it-

   19. TDTim Dillon45:55

       Yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan45:55

       ... and we're always doing the right thing. In World War II, I, we 100% were, but there are a lot of other times when we've made grave errors-

   21. TDTim Dillon46:04

       Mm-hmm.

   22. JRJoe Rogan46:05

       ... with our military.

   23. TDTim Dillon46:06

       Yes.

   24. JRJoe Rogan46:06

       And I feel like it's not good enough for... You can't just point to World War II, which is again, we were correct.

   25. TDTim Dillon46:18

       Yes.

   26. JRJoe Rogan46:18

       But I think there is this idea that if you... You do... It's, it's not an accident there's a million movies made about World War II.

   27. TDTim Dillon46:26

       Yeah.

   28. JRJoe Rogan46:26

       It's not an accident that there is a lot of pageantry surrounding World War II.

   29. TDTim Dillon46:29

       Well, also that the World-

   30. JRJoe Rogan46:30

       Yeah.
5. 1:00:00 – 1:09:23

   Right. …

   1. JRJoe Rogan1:00:00

      deal with driverless cars where if- the entire road is automated?

   2. TDTim Dillon1:00:04

      Right.

   3. JRJoe Rogan1:00:04

      How do you deal with that? I think that fills people with an anxiety where they go, "What is the plan?" And a lot of these tech guys are like, "Well, we gotta get off the planet." And I think people start going like, "Wait a minute." (laughs) You know, like...

   4. TDTim Dillon1:00:16

      That's Weinstein. Eric Weinstein says-

   5. JRJoe Rogan1:00:18

      Well, it's a lot of people.

   6. TDTim Dillon1:00:19

      ... we gotta get off the planet.

   7. JRJoe Rogan1:00:19

      There's a lot of people saying that.

   8. TDTim Dillon1:00:21

      I'm just saying. I don't know what you're saying.

   9. JRJoe Rogan1:00:22

      There's a lot of people.

   10. TDTim Dillon1:00:22

       There's no air on Mars. Like, let's not go there.

   11. JRJoe Rogan1:00:25

       Yeah. Oh, well, for sure.

   12. TDTim Dillon1:00:26

       Yeah.

   13. JRJoe Rogan1:00:26

       For sure. Do you think Trump and Moscow will have a falling out eventually?

   14. TDTim Dillon1:00:31

       I don't know. It's a good question. The media keeps trying to push that they are.

   15. JRJoe Rogan1:00:35

       It feels like they're just big personalities in that there's an inevitability when you have two guys that are incredibly, you know-

   16. TDTim Dillon1:00:45

       Perhaps.

   17. JRJoe Rogan1:00:45

       ... alpha.

   18. TDTim Dillon1:00:46

       But Elon is very smart. And you see he's always very deferential.

   19. JRJoe Rogan1:00:51

       Yeah.

   20. TDTim Dillon1:00:52

       And- and he's always very respectful. "Mr.President," it's always that.

   21. JRJoe Rogan1:00:55

       Well, of course. I mean, yeah.

   22. TDTim Dillon1:00:56

       I call him sir. That's how I- I treat him. I always call him sir.

   23. JRJoe Rogan1:00:58

       Yeah.

   24. TDTim Dillon1:00:59

       It- it's D- it's Donald Trump. Yeah, I get it. You're fired. I get it.

   25. JRJoe Rogan1:01:03

       Right.

   26. TDTim Dillon1:01:03

       But he's also the-

   27. JRJoe Rogan1:01:04

       The president, for sure.

   28. TDTim Dillon1:01:04

       ... president of the United States. I call him sir. But I call everybody sir.

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:01:07

       Yeah.

   30. TDTim Dillon1:01:08

       I call everybody sir.
