- The Joe Rogan Experience.
- Here's what's crazy, man.
I've been freaking out over the last, like, few weeks,
like, at nighttime.
Like, at nighttime, I'll be alone,
and I just start thinking about the future of the world,
and I start, like, legit freaking out.
Like, what would happen if we were, like,
legit Armageddon, Mad Max, nuclear war?
Like, how far are we away from that?
And it just, it could just give me anxiety
before I go to sleep.
I'd just be laying there going, fuck, like,
how does this all resolve?
And then this fucking Israel thing pops off,
and now I'm, like, legit freaked out.
- I've been definitely buying a lot of stuff lately
for my house, like, end of the world shit.
Like, I'm getting Tesla solar right now.
- That's a good move.
- You know, battery pack so I can live off the grid.
- Yeah, that's a good move.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, if you can get your house solar, that's a big move.
Just fucking a bit of a, you know, at a certain point in time,
what is it, what's the electricity even getting you
other than keeping the lights on?
What I'm scared of is, like,
all communications are gone.
Like, how hard would it be to shut down our power grid?
How hard would it be to blow a few satellites up,
and no one knows shit?
- Yeah, that's why, like, that Starlink,
you know, the satellites thing, I'm thinking about getting that.
Even though I have great internet, but, you know,
just because, "Oh, what if?" It's, yeah, it's scary.
- Yeah, I was in the mountains in Utah, and they had Starlink, and it was great.
It works everywhere.
- Mm-hmm.
- But people keep thinking it's UFOs.
- Oh, yeah.
- Like, people keep filming it flying, "What is that?"
- Yeah, the dots in the air.
- Like I was telling you the other day, I'm sitting at home, like, wondering
about the fate of the world.
Are we, are we literally gonna be in a fucking madman?
'Cause you don't think anything's gonna go bad until it goes bad.
You know, you remember the day before 9/11, it was just fucking normal America,
yay, yay.
And then the next day, chaos, and then everyone's riding around with an
American flag on their car.
Like, anything can happen, and if anything does happen, like, how, how ready,
what, how much is the world gonna change?
I mean, like, if you think about any sort of, like, horrific natural disaster
that is here,
that's hit humanity since the beginning of time, whether it's super volcanoes,
or earthquakes, or any of these chaotic things.
When those things happen, when, when the Mongols roll into your town, when, you
know, when Nazi Germany starts taking over Europe,
like, fuck, we want to think that that can't happen.
But 100% that can happen, and when I fucking, when I'm alone at night, and I'm
a little high,
that's the thing that freaks me out the most.
The things that freaks me out the most is international conflicts between superpowers,
and how they're willing to kill a certain amount of people, right?
So, like, how, what's, what's the number where they won't cross that line?
Because if you've got groups of people that are willing to shoot missiles into
apartment buildings,
and, and, and, and fly jets down, and gun people down, and you've seen all
those crazy drones,
if we're willing to kill a certain amount of people, like, what's the line
where they won't cross?
What's the line? Is it a million people? Is it a nuclear bomb? You know? What,
what is the line?
There's probably no line.
I think about how much people loved America after 9/11.
The whole world was, like, on America's side.
And how much we fucked that up in 23 years or 22 years.
Yeah.
Fuck that up.
Fuck that up.
A million innocent people die because of the Iraq War.
I mean, fuck that, everybody knows that.
We need a 9/12 immediately.
We probably are due for one.
That's the way it's scary when you see this Israel thing, like, it scares the
shit out of me.
Yeah.
It scares the shit out of me.
Because when I see something like that happen, you know, it's like, there's no
clear way this resolves peacefully.
Like, this is bad. This is real bad.
And, and Israel's gonna go into Palestine.
They're already bombing.
And it's all, whew.
And is there a retaliation for that?
And what happens then?
And who, what other countries get involved?
And fuck.
Fuck, man.
It just really puts into perspective that there's some shit going on that you're
not thinking about.
Because it's not in your life.
So, if you're a guy like you or I, let's say us, because we're comedians.
So, we're hanging out at the comedy club.
We're doing podcasts.
That's our world.
Our world is fucking around with people.
Our world is telling jokes.
Our world is hanging out with our friends and doing shows.
Their world is killing people.
Their world is controlling resources.
And it's not, they don't play fair.
Like, they release stories that aren't true.
They use disinformation to switch narratives.
They have social media posts that aren't real so they can get people riled up
about certain things.
And then they're also coordinating military attacks.
That's their world.
We just don't think about that world because we're not in that world.
But people have been in that world since the beginning of time.
What they've done with us is they've sheltered us in such a way and then censored
all the mainstream media in such a way that they completely controlled the
narrative of how you think about what can and cannot happen in the world and
why these things are happening.
And we're seeing that right now.
We're seeing that like in your face where you're like, what?
And you're also seeing people with massive amounts of conspiracies now, right?
And whenever something like that happens, there's always the people that are
like, how did they not know this was going to happen?
Like, isn't this the most sophisticated surveillance systems in the world?
This, like, Israel's, they're the people that invented Pegasus.
That's that shit that gets on your phone where they can listen to anybody and
they have, like, their, they have that iron dome that protects them against
missiles.
Did you ever see that working?
Mm-mm.
They were just showing it the other night.
It's, show videos of the iron dome working.
It's crazy.
So, as Hamas is launching these missiles, they're shooting missiles at the
missiles and blowing them up in the sky.
It's wild.
Look at this.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's old school missile command.
Remember that video?
Yeah.
You have to be 100% accurate because any one of these is going to kill a bunch
of people.
But, I mean, just imagine living in Israel and you go outside and you're seeing
missiles getting hit by bombs.
Look at this.
It's insane.
Look at this.
They're just jacking them in the sky.
But if they miss one, that's a wrap.
I mean, how much do, how much do each one of these missiles that they're
shooting at these other missiles cost?
Right.
That's what I was thinking is million dollars, million dollars, million dollars.
How are they getting all the money to shoot those missiles at Israel?
Like, all of it is crazy.
Yeah.
And someone tweeted, see if this is true, that this happened right after the
Biden administration released a bunch of funds to Iran.
I think it was like six billion dollars.
Really?
And these people in Hamas are thanking Iran for funding this.
Wow.
But what's real?
Yeah.
What's real?
That sounds like...
How much of this is real?
Yeah.
Have you heard of this?
The Air Force successfully tested secret new stealth missile with mock nuke.
Stealth?
Stealth missile.
Yeah.
With a mock nuke.
B-52.
America's nuclear weapons are aging and the Pentagon plans to spend more than
600 billion to keep the potentially world ending weapons in fighting shape.
What a great idea.
In this article I saw it said that they were being controlled by floppy disks
up until 2019.
Well, those are accurate.
That's about right.
It is top of the food chain.
They're updating tech, but...
Okay.
Floppy disks in 2019.
But some of the old tech is still solid.
The LRSO and mock nuke are fired from a B-52, a sturdy and reliable bomber
first manufactured in the '50s.
The missiles are in fact designed to work with this decades-old bomber.
Hmm.
But a mock stealth nuke is crazy.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
All of it's crazy.
The fact that that's on the table.
All of it's crazy.
And also the fact that we haven't nuked anybody since 1945?
Nobody's nuked anybody?
That's good.
It's promising.
Right?
It's promising.
We've got to celebrate 100 years.
But it's hard to imagine that it's going to last like that forever.
It seems like someone's going to get crazy.
Yeah.
That's the question.
It's like if you're willing to kill each missile's $40,000 to $50,000,
according to a researcher at Israel's Institute
for National Security Studies.
Wow.
Wow.
20 of them is a million bucks.
So, yeah.
So the question is where are these weapons coming from?
And then there was also questions of whether or not the weapons that we left in
Afghanistan were being used.
Mm-hmm.
Which is, that is crazy.
Trump was hilarious doing this conversation about that, where he's telling them,
like, why don't we, you know, get the weapons out of there?
Why don't we fill them up with gas and drive them over to Pakistan?
And there's like, he said, find a video.
Is it Millie?
Because he's hilarious.
Trump literally acts like a comedian.
He is.
I mean, he always kind of has been, right?
The first thing, yes.
Oh, okay.
The Biden administration informed Congress on Monday that it has taken concrete
steps to carry out a prisoner exchange with Iran, issuing a waiver that will
give Tehran access to $6 billion in Iranian oil revenue that had been blocked
by U.S. sanctions, according to a State Department document sent to Congress.
And that was a month ago.
Yeah.
That was a month ago.
Yeah.
On September 11th.
And then, you know, all these stories the last day, I'd say.
Yeah.
So they, they gave him a lot of funds.
Yeah.
And then this happens.
He needs to do a chargeback.
It's just, we are, yeah, call PayPal.
Until he got defrauded.
We're in the middle of a game that we don't, we're not aware of.
Just like we were talking about before.
Like, that's the game they play.
The game they're playing is war.
And money.
I mean, just the amount of money that's been spent in Ukraine.
And like, what kind of accounting are you guys doing?
You guys doing good accounting over there?
Like, does everybody know where every fucking dollar went?
Or is it just like, let's go crazy?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Were you talking about so much money?
Like, you could shuffle a little over here and put a little over here.
Why don't you look at Jesus?
How do you just leave weapons too?
I mean, don't they, don't we know where all the, I mean, if we have air tags on
our book
bag, shouldn't they have like little air tags on them?
Dude, that whole pullout was an unmitigated disaster.
Yeah.
Nobody thinks it was good.
Nobody thinks it was good.
Nobody thinks it should have been done that way.
I mean, Trump was trying to pull out a long time ago.
And they were, they were trying to figure out like how many troops you have to
leave.
Or maintain the base and, and get everybody out safe.
It is.
It's tricky.
Cause when they know you're pulling out, but the fact they left tanks and
helicopters and
shit, like shut the fuck up.
Yeah.
That's ridiculous.
It's almost like, like if you wanted to go full tinfoil hat, if you want to
ensure there's
going to be more conflict, you leave weapons with the enemy, awesome weapons.
If you want to ensure there's going to be more military action at these, these
guys are
pissed.
You were occupying the country for 20 years.
You left behind how many billion dollars worth of tanks and shit.
Of course, they're going to use it.
And so you tell the military guys like, yeah, we're pulling out.
Ha.
But here's the long play.
The long play is there's, you know, no chance.
I'm not going to do something with all that stuff.
And so we'll probably have to go back in.
And then this time we'll really go back in and we'll get control of the lithium.
Like we can't go now.
Like if we go all in now, like we got to get them to do something really stupid.
So then the, we can justify like a complete takeover of the country and annihilation
of the,
the people that are the problem, the people that we left tanks behind.
The thing about Afghanistan though, is like, it's so, it's so difficult to get
through.
You know, to, we think of it as like a country, but it's mountains.
It's like everything is mountains.
It's incredible landscape.
And there's Greek cities there.
There's ancient Greek cities that were abandoned there during the time of
Alexander the Great.
And no archeologists are studying them.
Like it's, it's amazing.
It's an amazing place.
And it also has crazy amounts of resources in terms of like, I think there's a,
like an insane amount of lithium there.
There's all sorts of shit there.
That's like really valuable.
But everybody tries to take over and they all fail miserably.
It's like one of the ways that they stomped out the Soviet Union was funding,
funding the Mujahideen, which later became, you know, Al Qaeda or the Taliban.
Was it, was the Mujahideen, they become a Taliban or Al Qaeda?
Either way.
Like they, the Russians tried to take over forever.
And then they gave up like, fuck this.
It's like too much.
You can't win over there.
It's like, you can't even go anywhere.
You can't get through the mountains.
You can't just drive.
You can't just drive tanks through.
It's a fucking wild place.
An almost unconquerable place.
It would be cool to see in the future if that does eventually become somewhere
you could go and enjoy the, you know.
Used to be.
People used to go, there's like videos of people walking around the streets of
Kabul.
Used to be a place that people would go and vacation.
Yeah.
Force fields.
Come on, force fields.
Dude.
None of that's gonna help.
It all goes back to force fields.
Yes, if we come in, put a big force field there.
Hmm.
I don't think so.
We leave our force fields behind.
Yeah, I feel safer living in Austin though, now that we're in the middle of a
country, just in case of war goes crazy.
Unless they decide to like, nuke Dallas.
Yeah.

Freaking Out Over the Israel and Hamas Conflict

- The Joe Rogan Experience.
- Here's what's crazy, man.
I've been freaking out over the last, like, few weeks,
like, at nighttime.
Like, at nighttime, I'll be alone,
and I just start thinking about the future of the world,
and I start, like, legit freaking out.
Like, what would happen if we were, like,
legit Armageddon, Mad Max, nuclear war?
Like, how far are we away from that?
And it just, it could just give me anxiety
before I go to sleep.
I'd just be laying there going, fuck, like,
how does this all resolve?
And then this fucking Israel thing pops off,
and now I'm, like, legit freaked out.
- I've been definitely buying a lot of stuff lately
for my house, like, end of the world shit.
Like, I'm getting Tesla solar right now.
- That's a good move.
- You know, battery pack so I can live off the grid.
- Yeah, that's a good move.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, if you can get your house solar, that's a big move.
Just fucking a bit of a, you know, at a certain point in time,
what is it, what's the electricity even getting you
other than keeping the lights on?
What I'm scared of is, like,
all communications are gone.
Like, how hard would it be to shut down our power grid?
How hard would it be to blow a few satellites up,
and no one knows shit?
- Yeah, that's why, like, that Starlink,
you know, the satellites thing, I'm thinking about getting that.
Even though I have great internet, but, you know,
just because, "Oh, what if?" It's, yeah, it's scary.
- Yeah, I was in the mountains in Utah, and they had Starlink, and it was great.
It works everywhere.
- Mm-hmm.
- But people keep thinking it's UFOs.
- Oh, yeah.
- Like, people keep filming it flying, "What is that?"
- Yeah, the dots in the air.
- Like I was telling you the other day, I'm sitting at home, like, wondering
