Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.
What killed RFK, bud?
His Zionism.
You know, if he didn't have that, I think he could be president, but...
You mean RFK Jr.?
Yeah.
Oh, I was confused.
I was like, what?
I meant figuratively.
I was like, how does this have anything to do with the boycott of Starbucks and
McDonald's
and Sirhan Sirhan?
Like, what?
Some rabbit hole shit I didn't know about?
Is that possible?
You know, Sirhan Sirhan, his house was in Pasadena, which was close to where I
used to live.
Really?
Yeah.
One day, my wife was like, yeah, Sirhan Sirhan lives over here.
I'm like, get out of here.
I didn't know.
Have you ever read into the MKUltra connection between Sirhan Sirhan, Jack Ruby,
and Jolly West?
So, no, I haven't, but now I'm working with Kurt Metzger, and he knows all that
shit.
He knows too much.
He knows, I'm like, he could just go on.
You've ruined him.
You've ruined him.
Because he didn't, I don't think he's aware of so many legitimate actual
conspiracies, meaning
like where governments and corporations conspire against the American people,
lie, twist facts,
distort things.
But Kurt is one of those guys that once he finds out something, you know,
because he grew up in a cult, right?
Yeah.
So, he's in a Jehovah's Witness cult when he was young.
Yeah.
Sorry, Jehovah's Witnesses.
But, and then becomes a comedian, and you know, like, he's so averse to
bullshit.
He's like, oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Because, like, you fucking ruined my childhood.
I know what this is.
I've seen this before.
I've seen this in another form.
I know what this is.
Yeah, that's, that's his, like, superpower because he's been through it.
You ruined him.
His show, you ruined him.
He's so, he's so crazy now.
He's so mad now.
Do you see him get upset on the show?
He gets legit angry.
Here it is.
Other controversial cases West was assigned to, including evaluating Sirhan Sirhan,
who assassinated
Robert F. Kennedy, uh, June, excuse me, at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles,
June 5th, 1968.
West claims Sirhan was a subject of psychic driving, a mind-altering technique
involving hypnosis or paralytic drugs.
Psychiatrists often use barbiturates for this.
Shut, settle the fuck down.
You used acid.
Stop lying.
What is this?
Oh, maybe possibly barbiturates or something legal.
No, they were using acid.
Who's this West guy?
Jolly West was the head of MKUltra.
Oh, no kidding.
Yeah, that they chronicle extensively in Thomas O'Neill's book, Chaos, about
the Manson case.
Oh, so, yeah, my wife is reading that right now.
Goddamn, that's a good book.
She has an audio book, so I'll walk to the house and I'll hear like, what the
fuck?
You know how crazy that book is?
Tom was, uh, Greg Fitzsimmons's roommate in New York, and then also, uh, not
roommate, excuse me, neighbor.
He was his neighbor in New York, and then also his neighbor in Venice,
California.
Like, he moved, like, so they were, like, near each other.
For 20 years, this guy's been working on this.
He started working on it as an article, right?
So he writes it as an article, but then once he starts getting into the
information, it's so extensive, it's so crazy, that he can't finish the article.
Because the article is just an anniversary of the Manson assassinations, the
Manson killings.
So then, 20 years later, he finally puts out this book, and he's got enough
information for another fucking book.
And it's wild.
It's all a CIA plot.
The Manson family was all, Manson was visited in prison by Jolly West.
They trained him, allegedly, in hypnosis techniques, using LSD, how to mind
control people.
He would not do the acid, but he would give the acid to the people, which is
something also that, apparently, the MKUltra people trained him.
And he would get them to commit evil acts.
And the whole thing was to discredit the anti-war movement.
That's the whole thing, was the hippies.
Yeah.
Yeah, so they turned hippies into something fucking terrifying.
So hippies used to be like, oh, she's a flower child.
Oh, they're peace and love.
You know, cute, nice stuff.
But then they turned hippies into fucking psychotic murderers who cut babies
out of movie stars' bellies and paint on the wall pig.
You know, that kind of shit.
Yeah, Kurt was also telling me about that.
Like, that's the perfect way to discredit the anti-war movement.
Yes.
Well, that's also why the Psychedelics Act of 1970 was passed.
Oh, really?
Yes.
The Psychedelic Act of 1970 was passed to go after the Black Panthers and to go
after the civil rights leaders and to go after the anti-war movement.
Because those people were all taking drugs.
So they're eating mushrooms and trying to come to, like, some sort of an
understanding of our place in the universe.
And they said, okay, we're going to take all of these psychedelic compounds
that are literally creating a cultural revolution.
So you go from the 1950s, you get – I always say music is, like, the best
representation of that.
And comedy as well, but really music.
If you look at, like, Buddy Holly, great music, great stuff.
And then Jimi Hendrix is 10 years later.
What the fuck is that?
What is – that's like a revolution.
Like, out of nowhere, something is insanely different.
Like, it's not even from this earth.
Right, yeah.
Not even from this earth.
That's all psychedelics.
And we've never had a leap like that since.
Nope.
Isn't that weird?
Like, you can listen to music from the 80s, and a lot of it sounds like it
could be made today, right?
It's coke music.
The 80s, they were all doing coke.
They were watching Miami Vice.
They were doing coke, wearing no socks with loafers.
But remember, I mean, whenever I hear a Prince song, I'm like, oh, that could
be made today.
That could have been from right now.
Yeah, well, Prince was the most versatile, right?
Because he could do anything.
Like, if you go to his early stuff, it was, like, this real sweet music about
fucking, you know?
Yes, yes, he was all about fucking.
Like, Head, you ever heard that song, Head, like, from his first out?
Or I think his second album?
God, he was good.
He was so good.
I love that he had that – there was that band, Morris Day and the Time.
Yes!
I like them almost more than Prince.
I just like them.
Oh, he's got this one song that's on our – I think it's on the playlist.
I hope it's on the playlist.
It's called – if it's not, I'm going to put it on there right now.
It's called Cool, because I'm cool.
Yeah, that's right.
Am I down in San Francisco?
Dance all night and roll.
That's it, yeah.
Yeah, Morris Day was the shit.
Yeah.
Maurice, bring me back.
I love that.
I thought that Morris Day was going to be bigger than –
I know.
Well, I didn't think he was ever going to be bigger than Prince.
I think Prince is a legitimate – was, excuse me, a legitimate genius.
Oh, yeah, he was.
And he's another guy that we lost because of fucking bullshit, because of fentanyl.
Yeah, you think that's what – okay.
That's what happened to him.
What do you think about – so now people are revisiting the –
God, it wasn't in the playlist.
It is now.
Oh, it is?
I had to put it in the Mothership playlist.
I'm like, how's that not in there?
He has a song called Walk Everybody, Walk Your Body.
Yeah.
Anybody walk your body.
I'm about to walk a hole in my Stacys.
He was just so cool.
And so then I would go out and buy Stacey Adams shoes.
I would.
And so we would – there was this place – oh, there was a very derogatory
– it was Maxwell Street in Chicago.
And they used to call it – I can't say it – because it's anti-Semitic.
And so we would go down there, and you could walk into all these clothes stores,
and you could bargain with them.
And I never experienced that before.
Like, you walk in, and usually the price was the price.
You go to the mall, the price is – you can't bargain, but you could bargain.
So it was like an exciting thing to do.
Me and my brothers would all go down there, and you'd go into all these stores,
and you'd, like, put all these clothes together.
Like, we'd start bartering.
Like, okay, how about this?
How about that?
It was fun.
I miss those days.
That's where – in the Blues Brothers, remember, they go down to get the black
guy who's the clarinet player, and –
You better think, think, think.
So whatever – that's where that took place.
Oh, wow.
And – but I think that's all gone now.
I think they got rid of that.
And they – I don't know what they put it.
It's probably an Applebee's.
I think the University of Illinois-Chicago made me be expanded into there and
took it over.
Oh, interesting.
Interesting.
But those were – those were the days.
I missed the Morris Day and the time.
I missed those days.
These are the best days.
But those – but then they're just –
These days right now.
These are the best days.
You think?
Yeah, by far.
By far.
Well, they are for me.
By far for everybody.
Because we get all the other stuff from those other eras.
We still can listen to that, too.
We can still watch that, too.
But we have a bizarre time where the world is waking up, where people are so
much more aware
of the corruption and just the way the world works is more – it's more
highlighted than it's ever been before.
And I think it's more fun.
It's like some of the things that are stupid are so stupid.
Like when you see Biden, we beat Medicare.
And they go, thank you, Mr. President.
And they smash cut.
Like, how the fuck is that real?
How is that real?
The guy, like, locks up, like, Windows 95, stammers for 15 seconds.
And then he says, we beat Medicare.
I was doing a show the other night at the hotel cafe in Hollywood.
And I do a joke about Joe Biden, you know, like, why don't they get a dog to
leave him offstage, you know?
And the people in the crowd, like, they're all, like, 20-something Hollywood
people.
And they go, oh.
And I was like, what?
I have friends like you.
I know what that –
Listen, they've done a good job.
They've done a really good job of pretending that they're compassionate.
I love Joe Biden.
I love – I've always loved Joe – no one's ever fucking loved Joe Biden.
He's always been a joke and a punchline.
And this idea that somehow it's Joe Biden's integrity and truth-telling against
Donald Trump, he lied, lied.
The first time Joe Biden ran for president, he had to drop out because he got
exposed for being a pathological liar.
He said he graduated at the top of his class.
He graduated at the bottom.
He said he had three majors.
He said he was chosen the most outstanding political – no, it was all lies.
And then he got caught plagiarizing.
Someone else – not only just their speeches, but, like, their life story.
He, like – it was like, who does that?
And so he had to – he's been a joke, always was a joke.
And this idea – you know, the reason why black and brown – I had to, you
know, tell this to Cornel West when he came on my show.
Hey, the reason why black and brown people are locked up at way higher rates
than their population is because of Joe Biden, not because of Donald Trump.
Donald Trump actually did the step back, right?
Which is probably why he's getting 20 percent of the black vote right now.
So this – all the – all their – you're right.
All their narratives are falling away.
People are waking up.
And not only in America, but I do – not to get – I do miss a time before
cell phones and the Internet.
It was like more of an innocent time.
I do miss that time.
I'm glad we went through it.
Yeah, I mean, I'm also –
But I don't miss it.
Okay.
But – but I was just in Europe, right?
I don't want an 11-day tour or whatever.
And I didn't know if I was going to have – you know, anybody's going to show
up.
They did.
And same – it's like the same shit.
Like people – they're upset at the media.
They're upset at the control.
They're upset at the censorship.
And I didn't know.
Like Jeff Bezos – I was in Norway.
And they're like, yeah, Jeff Bezos owns the freaking media here too.
I'm like, what?
I didn't know.
I had never tho
