Joe Rogan Podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
Cheers, sir.
Cheers.
It's sick of my friend, take this seriously.
Awesome to be at the club last night.
Yeah, it was fun having you.
Last night was fun.
It was a good night.
Really fun.
Yeah, it's a fun place, man.
Yeah.
A little Disneyland.
Yeah.
It also is like a throwback.
I'm like, I left Kill Tony on Monday.
I was like, I haven't had my shirt smell like cigarettes in a while.
Yeah, all those guys in the green room are smoking cigarettes.
I had one.
I don't smoke.
It's so pretty contagious.
But I was like, I have one.
What the hell?
What the hell?
Yeah, that's a what the hell room.
Yeah.
This is a, I mean, it's one of those things like you create something with like
this intention
and you kind of hope that it'll work out good, but that place almost sort of
made itself into
what it is.
It's like, it's got an energy to it.
I think it's also because of that building.
I mean, that building was made in 1927 and everybody's performing there.
Willie Nelson performed there.
Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Like, you look in the wall, Black Flag, all the walls inside the green room,
all those posters.
Those are all bands.
Misfits, all bands that performed there.
Wow.
Because it was a rock club for a long time.
And then it was-
The whole thing, it was like all, but it's a big venue though.
I don't know if it was two different rooms.
I think at one point in time it was just one room.
Yeah.
And then I think with the Alamo Draft House, they turned it into two rooms.
Then it was a movie theater for like 10 years.
And then when they went under, we had the two rooms.
Then we just adjusted everything and changed a lot of stuff and turned it into
a comedy club.
Yeah.
It's cool as fuck.
But it's got, that building's alive, man.
Yeah.
Like you walk in the building and you're like, this fucking building's alive.
It feels like everyone's a comedy fan too.
When you walk in, it's pretty cool.
Yeah.
You build it, they will come.
It's like the field of dreams.
Yeah.
Not for everybody.
For you it is, but not for everybody.
What do you mean?
Well, I mean, a lot of people are building comedy clubs.
They don't come.
Yeah, but they don't do it that way.
You did it right.
But we did it, I swear to God.
I mean, it sounds stupid.
I don't believe in fate necessarily.
I don't not believe in fate, but I'm not like one of those people that's like
preaching it.
If I wanted to believe in fate, though, I would believe in fate because of this.
Because it's like every, it's like, you ever drive and you just hit every green
light for whatever reason?
I can't drive.
You don't drive?
I have a license, but I'm dog shit.
It hurt me as a young comic because Joe List would always shit on me because we
did a road gig like, I want to say like almost 15 years ago together, where I
got us the gig.
It was co-headlining, but it was a casino run and the thing was like, you have
to split the driving.
It was like 30 hours of driving total.
So he's like, can you split the driving with me?
I said, of course.
And we got, I already fucked up because like we flew into the wrong city on the
wrong day because of me.
I was such a fucking young idiot.
So we flew into like Michigan.
It was supposed to start in Wisconsin.
And he was like, you fuck, we're prorated.
I was like, I fucked us.
We're prorated.
And then he was already mad at me.
And then he's like, all right, it's your turn to drive.
And I started driving.
He was like, what the fuck is happening?
This is horrible.
And he always quotes me as saying like, no, I'm not a bad driver.
I just can't turn well.
And he was like, yeah, that's a bad driver.
You fucking idiot.
So he tells this story about me all the time being like a city.
He calls me a city hick.
That's like he started calling me that.
But yeah, I can't really, I have a license.
I passed the test, but I'm dog shit.
It's not that hard, though.
I know I'm that bad.
I don't know why I'm that bad at it.
That's so weird.
You're so smart.
I would imagine you're smart to talk to.
Oh, thank you.
I'm a bad driver.
You're good socially.
Thank you, man.
So I would imagine.
You're easy to talk to.
So I would imagine you'd fucking be able to negotiate the distances between
vehicles and turn the wheel.
I bullshit my way through a license.
I failed two tests in New York.
They were in the Bronx.
And then I got a driver who I made her laugh out of the gate.
And I was like, I'm in.
Like, I just said, like, I suck at this.
I failed two.
Please don't fail me.
And she laughed.
And I was like, I'm in.
And I hit something.
And she passed me.
Wow.
Would you hit?
I don't remember.
It was a cone or something.
It was like.
Oh, okay.
Something minor.
It was minor.
Yeah.
It was a kid.
It was nothing.
Not a big deal.
A drunk kid.
I had a kid.
But she was like, you got me to laugh.
Man, I can't imagine not being able to drive.
Because it's just like, driving is freedom.
Yeah.
If you can't drive and there's a car there, like, what the fuck?
It's also freedom to have someone else
drive you, though.
If that still happens.
That's true.
If everything goes sideways and there's no more Uber and no more Lyft.
Yeah.
And you have to figure out how to work a stick shift.
I'm in trouble.
Yeah.
You're in real trouble.
Yeah.
If there's a civil war.
Yeah.
It's going to be hard to hail a cab.
Yeah.
If there's a civil war, where are you going to go?
I think I'm going to cave pretty early.
Are you?
No, I don't know.
I don't know what I'll do.
Come here.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
I'm welcome here?
Yeah.
All right.
Yeah, for sure.
And if it goes sideways, you want to be in Texas.
Because this place is already ready to be its own country.
But why do you guys want me?
What do I bring to the table?
You're funny.
All right.
That's all you need.
I'll take it.
Good guy.
Good guy.
Funny.
Good to hang with.
That's all we need.
I have one bad set, though.
There's going to be a talk later.
We've got to cut this guy.
Nah.
We've seen too many good sets.
I'm not buying it.
One bad set.
You just need a pep talk.
That's like Theo Vaughn.
Oh, I did a gig with him once.
And we did a gig in Edmonton together.
And he was so in his head.
And I was like, they were obsessed with you.
What are you worried about?
He can get it in his head.
We had to cancel the fucking.
This was crazy.
I thought we were in Edmonton.
And there was like wildfires in Edmonton.
And this is how different personalities we are.
Like, I'm fucking in my.
I'm like, oh, the show is going to be canceled.
We're not going to be able to perform out here.
This is like bad air quality.
And he's like, nah, man, it's cool.
And then within 10 minutes, the agents called.
And they were like, the city shut down.
You can't.
And this was like right after COVID.
So I'm like, we can't perform indoors.
We can't perform outdoors.
Like, can we do fucking anything?
And they were like, will you stay an extra day?
And we're like, of course.
And then we were like, the air will be better, right?
And they're like, it's the next day, 10 times worse.
Like, you couldn't.
It smelled like a casino, but outdoors.
Were you in New York when they had that orange smoke in the air?
I felt so.
Whenever something bad happens in New York and I'm not there, I feel like a
traitor.
Because I'm such a city hick.
But no, I was on.
I was like, I think the second time I did my own tour bus.
So I was like really pumped to be on the road.
And I saw that.
I was like, I'm a piece of shit.
That's Canadian smoke, too.
That was Canadian smoke.
That was weird.
The orange thing was weird.
It's like end of the world.
There's a lot of end of the world shit happening lately.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
A lot.
The orange thing was weird, too, because there was this great conspiracy
because there was some missing chemicals.
There was apparently missing chemicals.
Like serious amounts.
Does it always have to be like a comic book?
You know?
It's always so fucking creepy.
Well, the whole world is like basically some bizarre movie now.
The Trump thing, the shooter, all the stuff that's coming out about the shooter
now, the more you read about it, the more you're like, what is going on?
Yeah, it's like a Black Rock thing, too, right?
Yeah, you did a Black Rock commercial.
They knew that there was a suspicious person ten minutes before Trump went on
stage.
They still wouldn't let him go on stage.
They saw him on the fucking roof, and they didn't engage.
Yeah.
They saw him on the roof with a rifle.
It's a bad Secret Service right there.
They wouldn't put Secret Service agents on the roof because they said there was
a slope to the roof.
Right.
And it would be dangerous.
It's more dangerous if the ex-president get shot, which he did.
They let him get off.
The kid got off three shots, and apparently there was one that we saw that hit
his ear, and you see the bullet.
Like the photographer got a bullet flying by his head.
But apparently there's another one of a bullet going by his left side of his
head.
So it went by the right side of his head, hit his ear, and went by the left
side of his head as well.
Because the guy got off three shots, and he just missed Trump every time.
And there was one shot of him turning his head, and I'm like, are you fucking
kidding me?
It was that close?
Dude, it's so crazy.
Yeah.
It's so crazy.
And the fact that they had such poor security guarding him.
Like they did such a terrible job.
My uncle's convinced it's bullshit.
My uncle's like, there's no way this is real.
I don't think it's not real, but, look, here's the deal.
Okay, I'm not accusing anybody of anything.
Just want to be real clear.
Yeah.
But they have organized assassinations before.
Sure.
And when they organize.
Usually starts a war.
Assassinations, it looks just like that.
And when they organize assassinations, one of the things they like to do is
have some fucking loser kill the president,
and then they kill the fucking loser, and that's a wrap.
This kid kind of like stops all the leads.
Everything's like, where does he go?
So they have his phone.
They say they can't get into his phone.
Bitch, I know you read my text messages.
Yeah, well, how could it take so long to break into this shit?
How could you not get in that kid's phone?
It's always shady, right?
They always die instantly.
Like, Kennedy assassination, too.
Like, a nightclub owner kills Lee Harvey Oswald?
I'm supposed to believe there's a nightclub owner with a heart of gold out
there?
Runs right up and shoots him in front of cops.
Yeah.
What is this, the end of Shaft?
The fuck is going on?
The end of Shaft?
No, it's like, it's ridiculous.
Superfly, that was the end of Superfly.
The new Shaft ended like that, too.
Oh, the end of Superfly.
He tells him something stupid like that.
It's cinematic as fuck.
It all feels like a movie.
Yeah, it seems like a bad movie from the 70s.
Yeah.
It's weird.
That's how every 70s movie ended.
By the way, a guy just gets shot in the face.
Right, there's a lot of that.
Every movie, you're just like, it's like a guy gets shot in the face,
and then the credits, and you're like, I guess this is...
The guy on the roof is just bananas.
Yeah.
That roof was 150 yards away.
And if you're a good shot with a rifle,
hitting a human being at 150 yards is quite easy.
I don't know if his rifle had a scope.
I'm assuming it had a scope.
Someone said he was using iron sights.
But he wasn't set up in advance.
He just went up there, right?
I mean, that's how they...
He had a rangefinder.
Okay, so the kid was walking around the whole perimeter of the area
with a rangefinder,
which is instantaneously,
if you're Secret Service,
you see someone with a rangefinder
walking 150 yards from where the president is,
you tackle that fucking guy.
You don't let that guy get on a ladder.
Yeah, this is your Super Bowl.
What the fuck are you doing?
He brought a ladder.
The guy didn't just bring a rifle.
He got through there with a rifle and a ladder.
I don't k
