1. JRJoe Rogan
  (drumming music) Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.
2. NANarrator
  The Joe Rogan Experience.
3. BCBryan Callen
  Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. (rock music) Let me tell you, I was at- I was at, uh- I was at Tarren Tactical, and I was shooting, and I- I ... and Logan Paul was there, and I'd just met him. And, uh-
4. JRJoe Rogan
  (laughs)
5. BCBryan Callen
  ... I hit a dove.
6. JRJoe Rogan
  No.
7. BCBryan Callen
  I grazed a dove somehow, right?
8. JRJoe Rogan
  Oh, no. Yeah, they do fly around there. Oh, no.
9. BCBryan Callen
  And the dove is dying, but ... yeah, and I ... so, um, Logan and I come up, and I grab the dove, and I'm gonna wring its neck so it doesn't suffer.
10. JRJoe Rogan
  (sighs)
11. BCBryan Callen
  And Logan, Logan goes, "Wait. Hold. Let me just see it." And he takes it in his hands, and-and-and instead of me wringing its neck, 'cause I don't want it to suffer, I swear to God it was all ... you know how your- the wing is like this?
12. JRJoe Rogan
  Uh-huh.
13. BCBryan Callen
  His-his Jesus energy (laughs) , his-wh-his whatever his energy is, he held it in both hands, I swear to God, the thing kind of just went (clicks tongue) just kind of put its wing back in and just fucking flew out of his hands. (laughs) And I was like, "All right, well-"
14. JRJoe Rogan
  Thought you were gonna kill it.
15. BCBryan Callen
  I was gonna kill it. I was like, "All right."
16. JRJoe Rogan
  They are delicious.
17. BCBryan Callen
  Maybe that's Logan's celebrity powers.
18. JRJoe Rogan
  Do you know that it's, like, the most hunted bird in North America?
19. BCBryan Callen
  Listen, pigeon's delicious.
20. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah.
21. BCBryan Callen
  And I was just hunting them in London, sir. On the outskirts of London. I just got back.
22. JRJoe Rogan
  Oh, because, like, in the city, I don't think you're allowed to do that.
23. BCBryan Callen
  Um, this is why-
24. JRJoe Rogan
  But, uh-
25. BCBryan Callen
  ... this is why I can't do anything. Look at me.
26. JRJoe Rogan
  Wh-what's the matter?
27. BCBryan Callen
  I'm the ... "I don't know how to do this, help me."
28. JRJoe Rogan
  It's like a door. Y- you open the-
29. BCBryan Callen
  Oh, you open it.
30. JRJoe Rogan
  ... yeah, like that. I know, it's weird.
15:00 – 30:00
Don't have anything, nothing.…
1. BCBryan Callen
  for an hour. That's a nice thing to know. But if you don't have that, you don't have a skill set, if you don't have something-
2. JRJoe Rogan
  Don't have anything, nothing.
3. BCBryan Callen
  ... what happens is you then negotiate individuality with, um, accoutrement, as they say-
4. JRJoe Rogan
  Right.
5. BCBryan Callen
  ... in France, which means-
6. JRJoe Rogan
  Might dye your hair blue.
7. BCBryan Callen
  ... with... Of course, and, and get all-
8. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah.
9. BCBryan Callen
  ... kinds of tattoos, and then-
10. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah. Wait a minute.
11. BCBryan Callen
  ... and then do some crazy shit. Yeah, yeah. (laughs)
12. JRJoe Rogan
  (laughs) I just tatted all my tattoos.
13. BCBryan Callen
  But you have no face tattoos.
14. JRJoe Rogan
  Oh, fuck. Not yet. I've been thinking about it.
15. BCBryan Callen
  You're, but you're gonna do-
16. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah.
17. BCBryan Callen
  ... you're gonna do a lot of shit.
18. JRJoe Rogan
  Get a heart-
19. BCBryan Callen
  You're gonna do-
20. JRJoe Rogan
  ... on the tip-
21. BCBryan Callen
  ... a lot of shit.
22. JRJoe Rogan
  ... of my nose.
23. BCBryan Callen
  Yes, yes.
24. JRJoe Rogan
  (laughs)
25. BCBryan Callen
  Yes. Get your nipples.
26. JRJoe Rogan
  (gags)
27. BCBryan Callen
  Get two hearts on your nipples.
28. JRJoe Rogan
  Or get 'em pierced. That's-
29. BCBryan Callen
  That's-
30. JRJoe Rogan
  ... the best.
30:00 – 45:00
Life is too short…
1. JRJoe Rogan
  ladies' record.
2. BCBryan Callen
  Life is too short to hang from a bar that long.
3. JRJoe Rogan
  Two hours and 22 minutes. That's pretty crazy, though.
4. BCBryan Callen
  It's crazy.
5. JRJoe Rogan
  That guy must be a fucking, some kinda crazy rock climber, right?
6. BCBryan Callen
  But his body, and his body looks pretty, uh, pretty normal.
7. JRJoe Rogan
  Well, it's all really about your hands and your grip if you are a, a rock climber. I mean, you have to have leg strength and flexibility and a bunch of other things as well, for sure.
8. BCBryan Callen
  Yeah.
9. JRJoe Rogan
  But, God, your grip is what keeps you alive.
10. BCBryan Callen
  Fuck, yeah.
11. JRJoe Rogan
  Without your grip, you don't have jack shit.
12. BCBryan Callen
  Right.
13. JRJoe Rogan
  But, um, this lady that was doing it, I was just watching her do it, and she was doing the same thing. She was, like, switching hands and shit. So you give your left hand a break, and then you hold on with your right hand, give your right hand a break-
14. BCBryan Callen
  Yeah.
15. JRJoe Rogan
  ... hold on with your left.
16. BCBryan Callen
  I think your body... Uh, I do it... I, I find that the game changer for me was when I stopped stretching and started strengthening, right? So you can stretch. You should do some stretching, but my routine before I wrestle or something is to strengthen. So I'll warm it up. So I do, I do strengthening exercises for my lower back-
17. JRJoe Rogan
  Oh, okay.
18. BCBryan Callen
  ... and all that stuff, right?
19. JRJoe Rogan
  Like planks and stuff like that?
20. BCBryan Callen
  Yeah, or just, no, just like bird dogs and fire hydrants and-
21. JRJoe Rogan
  Mm-hmm. Yeah.
22. BCBryan Callen
  ... you know, all that shit. And, uh, that stuff is, that, that's been the game changer. Like with my shoulders, I was getting tendonitis, right? And then I just started doing all these different shoulder things with bands.
23. JRJoe Rogan
  Mm-hmm.
24. BCBryan Callen
  Right before I do it. And sure enough, you get stronger. My neck, same thing. My, n- People don't work their neck, like, as they get older at all. I think your neck is really important.
25. JRJoe Rogan
  Oh, for sure. What do you do?
26. BCBryan Callen
  I do that iron, you know that, uh-
27. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah, I got that thing. Iron neck.
28. BCBryan Callen
  And then I get a band sometimes and I'll just turn like that. Like, I'll be on my-
29. JRJoe Rogan
  The best thing about the iron neck, in my opinion, is there's other stuff that you could do, like harnesses where you do like chin-ups with your n- or like, not chin-ups like, like you think of. But you have this harness around your head and then there's a chain. At the end of the chain is a dumbbell. And then what you're doing is just using your neck to lift the weights. The guy from Iron Neck had a real good point, he's like, "That, that puts like weird stress on your, all those different discs." And-
30. BCBryan Callen
  It does?
45:00 – 1:00:00
I could think that…
1. BCBryan Callen
2. JRJoe Rogan
  I could think that way. I could think-
3. BCBryan Callen
  No, I know. I just-
4. JRJoe Rogan
  ... "Oh, I'm 58. Why do I think like that?"
5. BCBryan Callen
  No, I love it. I love it.
6. JRJoe Rogan
  But I just think what I like.
7. BCBryan Callen
  I was just working on my double leg.
8. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah.
9. BCBryan Callen
  What are you talking about? Who are you talking to? Right now.
10. JRJoe Rogan
  But also, more importantly, I do the work to make sure that my body can still do this at 58. If you're like 58-
11. BCBryan Callen
  That's how I feel.
12. JRJoe Rogan
  ... and you're a mailman, and you've been drinking every night, and you haven't gone to the gym in six months-
13. BCBryan Callen
  (laughs)
14. JRJoe Rogan
  ... you're like, "I'm gonna go kick the bag," like slow down.
15. BCBryan Callen
  Yes, slow down.
16. JRJoe Rogan
  Slow down. You're gonna get hurt.
17. BCBryan Callen
  Start, start at five minutes.
18. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah. You gotta build, like, you say, "Oh, Rogan hangs for two minutes. Oh, I'm gonna go hang for two minutes." You p- first of all, you're not.
19. BCBryan Callen
  Yeah.
20. JRJoe Rogan
  And you're gonna hurt yourself.
21. BCBryan Callen
  Yeah.
22. JRJoe Rogan
  Like, don't. If you want to start hanging, hang for 15 seconds. Just do that every day-
23. BCBryan Callen
  I tell people that.
24. JRJoe Rogan
  ... for 15 seconds, and then one day, you'll be able to do 30 pretty easy. And then next thing you know, you'll be doing a minute.
25. BCBryan Callen
  I always say that to people. I say, "Don't worry. Hey, hey, you're gonna get back to working out. You don't have to do an hour."
26. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah. If you're getting back to working out-
27. BCBryan Callen
  Actually, start with 10 minutes. Start with 10 minutes, man.
28. JRJoe Rogan
  ... super light.
29. BCBryan Callen
  Literally 10 minutes.
30. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah. You don't want to do much.
1:00:00 – 1:05:36
See, look at this.…
1. BCBryan Callen
2. JRJoe Rogan
  See, look at this. Boom.
3. BCBryan Callen
  Ah.
4. JRJoe Rogan
  I mean, look at these, there's missiles coming his way.
5. BCBryan Callen
  Look, look.
6. JRJoe Rogan
  He's like, nope, pop.
7. BCBryan Callen
  Uh, oh. Oh my God.
8. JRJoe Rogan
  Bro, he's so slick. Like every time Canelo would sh- throw such a-
9. BCBryan Callen
  Look at that. You see him catch that?
10. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah.
11. BCBryan Callen
  You see him catch that body shot with his elbow?
12. JRJoe Rogan
  Yep.
13. BCBryan Callen
  You're not touching that.
14. JRJoe Rogan
  Catch it and then fire right back.
15. BCBryan Callen
  Look at that body. Oh, there we go. All right.
16. JRJoe Rogan
  And he did get tagged a couple times.
17. BCBryan Callen
  Yeah. But-
18. JRJoe Rogan
  Even there as Canelo rushes in, he gets popped.
19. BCBryan Callen
  You make one mistake with Canelo though, you're, you're going out. Like that's-
20. JRJoe Rogan
  Oh, yeah.
21. BCBryan Callen
  That margin for error is like... (smacks hands)
22. JRJoe Rogan
  Look at this. Look at this. This is so pretty.
23. BCBryan Callen
  And he, he catches it. Bop, bop, bop.
24. JRJoe Rogan
  Look at that. That is so pretty.
25. BCBryan Callen
  Look at that. He-
26. JRJoe Rogan
  And to do that two weight classes above-... his, the normal weight. That, that is one weight class above-
27. BCBryan Callen
  Yeah.
28. JRJoe Rogan
  ... the previous world championship that he held.
29. BCBryan Callen
  Right. Meanwhile, he was 187. (laughs) Did you know that?
30. JRJoe Rogan
  Yeah. Oh, no. Listen, man, when I talked to him, it was... I talked to him on the podcast a couple of years ago, bef-... and he wanted this fight really bad. And-
