      ... a long time.

   10. JRJoe Rogan0:22

   14. JRJoe Rogan0:30

       And tell us about it. Talk-

   15. JCJack Carr0:31

       Yeah, yeah. So this is 1968 Vietnam, and, uh, I just launched the book tour, not last night but the night before, 'cause last night was Comedy Mothership, Kill Tony, which was amazing.

   16. JRJoe Rogan0:39

       Best show in the world.

   17. JCJack Carr0:40

       We had a blast. It was so crazy.

   18. JRJoe Rogan0:41

       The best show to go to.

   19. JCJack Carr0:41

       Do they v- vet any of those people, by the way, before they come up?

   20. JRJoe Rogan0:44

       Nope. Yeah, they're insane people-

   21. JCJack Carr0:44

       Yeah. Didn't look, didn't look like it.

   22. JRJoe Rogan0:45

       ... brilliant people, great comics, terrible comics.

   23. JCJack Carr0:48

       (laughs)

   24. JRJoe Rogan0:48

       That was fantastic. That's the best show ever.

   25. JCJack Carr0:50

       Oh, my gosh. That was fantastic. But, yeah, I kicked off the book tour with, uh, David Morrell, who, who created Rambo back in 1972 with First Blood.

   26. JRJoe Rogan0:56

       Oh, wow.

   27. JCJack Carr0:56

       So that was a huge honor for me. He's been a inspiration to me my whole life. And, uh, wrote a series of books, uh, in the '80s, Brotherhood of the Rose, Fraternity of the Stone, League of Night and Fog, which were just incredible. And, uh, I got to kick off the book tour with him out there. Signed a baby for the first time. I've never signed a baby.

   28. JRJoe Rogan1:10

       (laughs)

   29. JCJack Carr1:11

       So, someone brought a baby through and asked me to sign their kid.

   30. JRJoe Rogan1:13

       Oh, God.
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   (laughs) That's terrible. …

   1. NANarrator15:00

      quickly you can trust. Every smile, every handshake, your wave. This game is taught to you-

   2. JRJoe Rogan15:03

      (laughs) That's terrible.

   3. JCJack Carr15:04

      They might, they might figure that one out.

   4. JRJoe Rogan15:06

      That one the other way. Yeah, that one's terrible.

   5. NANarrator15:06

      ... but they don't follow through when it helps them.

   6. JRJoe Rogan15:07

      That's terrible. That's someone else's voice. Man, you ever notice how life sneak up on you like a bill you forgot you had?

   7. JCJack Carr15:11

      (laughs)

   8. JRJoe Rogan15:11

      One day you're cool, next day you're like, "Who left this- That's terrible too. (laughs) ... responsibility on my porch?" Stop that.

   9. JCJack Carr15:15

      (laughs) But there are some that are good.

   10. JRJoe Rogan15:16

       That's pop filter, first off. Stop that. Stop that. That's not Richard Pryor's voice.

   11. NANarrator15:19

       Steve, you think the whole world is waiting for you to show up, and then you find out the world was busy already. The trick is figuring out how to join in without losing your...

   12. JRJoe Rogan15:26

       I will say, hearing it through these headphones now- Man. ... you can hear that weird- Yeah. ... tinge. Like that's supposed to be Lee Harvey Oswald. Doesn't really look like him. A little bit, like a- Kind of. ... really young Lee Harvey Oswald. (sniffs) Anyway.

   13. JCJack Carr15:38

       Man.

   14. JRJoe Rogan15:38

       Uh, we're fucked.

   15. JCJack Carr15:39

       That's crazy.

   16. JRJoe Rogan15:40

       We're fucked-

   17. JCJack Carr15:40

       (groans)

   18. JRJoe Rogan15:40

       ... bottom line is. And music is really fucked. Like we were playing this, uh, 50 Cent cover.

   19. JCJack Carr15:46

       Yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan15:46

       They did a song, the song Many Men, but they did it with like a soul singer-

   21. JCJack Carr15:50

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan15:50

       ... from like the 1950s or 1960s. It's incredible. It's so good. It's like one of my favorite songs. (laughs)

   23. JCJack Carr15:56

       Really? (laughs)

   24. JRJoe Rogan15:56

       It's not even a real person.

   25. JCJack Carr15:58

       That's insane.

   26. JRJoe Rogan15:58

       It's not even a real person. And it's-

   27. JCJack Carr16:00

       And we're aware of it.

   28. JRJoe Rogan16:00

       ... so good. We were all-

   29. JCJack Carr16:01

       Wow.

   30. JRJoe Rogan16:01

       ... in the green room the other night. We're like, "If this guy was a real dude, he would be the biggest star in the world right now."
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   Oh, wow. …

   1. JCJack Carr30:00

      this guy and she's done." Uh, so she shoots him, like, three times before the fight as he's rushing in on her. So, okay-

   2. JRJoe Rogan30:05

      Oh, wow.

   3. JCJack Carr30:05

      ... we're gonna, we're gonna, uh, we're gonna even this out. And still some people got upset about it online. They're like, "How could she, uh, you know, how could she, you know, best this guy in a fight? He's huge." And well, because she shot him three times and then a fourth time in the middle of the fight, and she takes a beating. And, but the stunt, the stunt lady who did this was amazing, and she, she took a beating too, especially when she got thrown into that fridge. It was incredible.

   4. JRJoe Rogan30:24

      God, especially stunt women.

   5. JCJack Carr30:26

      Yeah, yeah.

   6. JRJoe Rogan30:26

      That's even harder.

   7. JCJack Carr30:27

      Yeah. Yeah, that was... And it's hard to watch-

   8. JRJoe Rogan30:30

      (laughs)

   9. JCJack Carr30:30

      ... because you're talking to them, and then they go on set and do their thing, and you're like, "Oh." But you feel like you know them now-

   10. JRJoe Rogan30:33

       Yeah.

   11. JCJack Carr30:33

       ... so you feel like you just know this person that's now getting beat up, and you're watching from that video village, and you're like, "Oh," Just cringing seeing this stuff.

   12. JRJoe Rogan30:39

       Yeah.

   13. JCJack Carr30:40

       Uh, but it's good. It came out, it came out fantastic.

   14. JRJoe Rogan30:41

       That's why guys like Tom Cruise are so nuts.

   15. JCJack Carr30:44

       So crazy.

   16. JRJoe Rogan30:44

       Because he does his own stunts.

   17. JCJack Carr30:45

       So crazy.Joe Rogan.

   18. JRJoe Rogan30:46

       He's worth a billion dollars and he jumps off roofs.

   19. JCJack Carr30:49

       (sighs)

   20. JRJoe Rogan30:49

       He jumps from rooftop to rooftop.

   21. JCJack Carr30:52

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan30:52

       And breaks his fucking ankle. Did you ever see that?

   23. JCJack Carr30:54

       Oh, yeah.

   24. JRJoe Rogan30:54

       On Mission Impos-

   25. JCJack Carr30:55

       Sure.

   26. JRJoe Rogan30:55

       Shatters-

   27. JCJack Carr30:55

       From Fallout?

   28. JRJoe Rogan30:56

       ... his ankle and then keeps running.

   29. JCJack Carr30:57

       Yeah.

   30. JRJoe Rogan30:58

       Keeps running.
4. 45:00 – 56:15

   Yeah. …

   1. JRJoe Rogan45:00

   2. JCJack Carr45:00

      Yeah.

   3. JRJoe Rogan45:01

      There's a charm to those old Land Cruisers, especially the one that you have, the 60 series.

   4. JCJack Carr45:05

      Yeah, yeah.

   5. JRJoe Rogan45:05

      Like, if you drive one of those things, man, it's like, that f- feels like you're involved in every part of the driving.

   6. JCJack Carr45:12

      It is. I love that.

   7. JRJoe Rogan45:13

      You feel the steering and the-

   8. JCJack Carr45:14

      It's my time machine.

   9. JRJoe Rogan45:15

      Yeah. It's like... (imitates engine revving)

   10. JCJack Carr45:18

       I love it. Yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan45:18

       And you have a V8 in it too, which is like... So you got modern power.

   12. JCJack Carr45:22

       Yeah.

   13. JRJoe Rogan45:22

       LS V8.

   14. JCJack Carr45:23

       Yep. LS3's in there, so that's nice.

   15. JRJoe Rogan45:25

       And it's still... But that has thick doors too. Much thicker than the '80s.

   16. JCJack Carr45:29

       Yeah. And I do have an 80.

   17. JRJoe Rogan45:29

       I don't know about much theater, but... Much thicker, but thicker.

   18. JCJack Carr45:32

       I like the 80 series. I have two 80 series now, both stock, uh, 96. And I love those, because they're just modern enough, but they're-

   19. JRJoe Rogan45:38

       Mm-hmm.

   20. JCJack Carr45:38

       They need someone to do a little work on them. They make some strange noises, but they, they work. But they, uh... My, my son, like, picked him up in school in it, and he's like, "Oh, dad," because it's still making this crazy... It's almost like it's the, it's going over the speed limit thing, but it's constant. So it's still...

   21. JRJoe Rogan45:50

       Some of them are at fucking hundreds of thousands of miles.

   22. JCJack Carr45:53

       Yeah, yeah. Yeah. These have over 100, uh, both of them. But, uh... So I love that. And I have a 78 FJ40 that I love. Um, so that's pretty... I love that one. And it's, uh... It's all completely restored, so it's all, all original for the most part.

   23. JRJoe Rogan46:04

       That's... It's all original?

   24. JCJack Carr46:04

       Yeah. Yeah, absolutely.

   25. JRJoe Rogan46:05

       It's fun getting on the highway with that thing, isn't it?

   26. JCJack Carr46:07

       Yeah, you go about 40 miles an hour tops. Tops. I mean, you're in that slow lane.

   27. JRJoe Rogan46:10

       (laughs) That's so slow.

   28. JCJack Carr46:11

       Yeah, it's so slow.

   29. JRJoe Rogan46:12

       It's so slow.

   30. JCJack Carr46:12
