Joe Rogan Experience #2027 - Oliver Anthony

Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.
Do you ever find yourself with the desire to welcome the Crocs into your life?
Yeah, I've got some genuine Realtree Crocs for when I'm out in the stand, you
know?
I know guys who use those as camp shoes.
They like to walk around camping them because you're wearing heavy boots in the
mountains.
Yeah, well, they're nice to kind of keep with you as a spare.
You know, you soak your boots or you're just trying to go on out of the house
real quick.
Brian Simpson now has Crocs and stage Crocs.
So before Brian Simpson goes on stage, he takes off his walk-around Crocs and
he puts on his pristine stage Crocs.
It's hilarious.
He used to do it with sneakers.
He used to walk around with Crocs and then he would wear sneakers on stage.
And then he went from Crocs to stage Crocs.
Yeah, well, maybe I'll look into it.
I need to get some new boots.
My boots are like, these are the ones I always wear.
And we were walking through the airport yesterday and they're like literally
one of the soles is falling off.
I'm like, I've got to figure out something.
You've got to get them resold, man.
They're authentic.
Yeah, these are my genuine.
You earned them.
People pay for those.
I thought about it.
I was joking with my buddy the other day.
I went and changed my oil at his house before we drove to North Carolina.
And I left the empty jug of the dirty oil sitting in his garage.
And I was like, I'll get it.
Whatever.
He said, no, man.
He said, I'm selling that on eBay.
That's Oliver Anthony's authentic used motor oil out of his truck.
You'd probably get 20 bucks for that.
There's a lot of people that definitely would buy that.
But what I mean, people buy used clothes because they want to wear clothes that
look like they have character.
It drives me crazy.
When I see people with pants that are just shredded all over the place, like
your knees are exposed.
Yeah, well, see, the pro tip I have for that is just go to Goodwill.
You can get real used clothes.
For real used clothes.
But that's extra, like, hipster authentic if you go to a real used clothes
store.
What do they call those?
Vintage.
Yeah, like that vintage look.
Oh, yeah.
If you could buy some holey t-shirt that some dirty hippie wore to a Rolling
Stones concert in the 1970s, you can get that now.
That's worth a lot of money.
You know, if, like, he died of a heroin overdose and he kept the fucking t-shirt
at his mom's house, she said to sell it, that's worth a lot of money.
I've tried to hold on to things that I think I could sell down the road.
Like, I've still got the, I've got the strings that I recorded, Richmond, North
of Richmond, on my guitar.
I was going to, I almost threw them away.
I was like, oh, hold on a second.
You could definitely sell those.
In hard times.
Yeah, I may have to.
Yeah, you could definitely sell those.
But that would be, like, an honest sale.
People can't say, oh, he's a sellout.
Yeah, yeah, I'm just selling junk I have.
I actually, I'm considering selling my truck.
Just if any, I don't know.
I think we talked about this once before.
But if somebody, it's worthless to me.
It's got 325,000 miles on it and a salvage title.
And I still daily drive it.
But I thought, man, if I could sell this and somebody pay 50 grand for it or
whatever and send it towards a charity, like, it would be pretty slick to do.
It has a salvage title?
It does, yeah.
What happened?
Did you buy it when it was already?
No, well, it's a 2007 Suburban.
I paid a couple grand for it years ago.
And then just here recently, I had to have it towed.
It broke down.
And the rollback driver, I guess, I don't know if he was under the influence or
something or what, but he unhooked all the chains off and then tilted the bed
back.
Oh, no.
So the whole truck rolled right off the back of the rollback.
Oh, no.
And it totaled the truck out.
It bent a bunch of stuff under the drive shaft and the front of the frame and
all.
And, of course, I'm sitting there trying to figure out what to do with my truck.
And here comes all the police.
And they're like, oh, is that really you?
Let's get it.
So here I am.
I'm on the phone with my insurance company.
And then all these guys are coming up trying to take selfies with me and stuff.
That's hilarious.
I guess this is the world I live in now.
So can the truck be fixed?
It's drivable.
Yeah, I'm driving it.
It just rides kind of like a covered wagon now.
So at some point I'm going to have to upgrade.
Is the frame bent?
Is the suspension bent?
Yeah, the drive shaft in the back's bent, I think, is what's causing it to
shake.
Oh, so you've got like a wobble in your drive shaft.
It went straight.
Yeah, I mean, it went Dukes of Hazzard style off the back of the truck.
That drives, as an adult, that show drives me nuts.
Watching those cars land.
Like, what are you doing to those cars?
Well, hey, this one can do it.
Yeah, sort of.
Maybe I'll donate it to Whistlin' Diesel and just let him kill it.
I don't know.
It would be pretty slick.
Well, you could do that or if someone is listening to this and they want to do
something cool and they've got the cheddar, buy it from you and then send it to
Roadster Shop and have them put like a badass suspension in it and, you know,
make it a real sleeper.
They can do shit like that.
That'd be pretty slick.
Because if you have to get all that replaced anyway, why not replace it with
like better shit?
It'd be cool for somebody to have it.
It would have a cool story behind it, you know?
This company called Roadster Shop, they've been on my podcast before.
One of the things they do is they do like a sleeper series.
I think they call it the Legend Series.
I'm actually not sure what they call it.
But what they do is they'll take an old car.
So the outside looks like shit.
The outside is patina and rust and all that stuff.
And then it'll just completely redo everything underneath it with like a crazy
engine, insane brakes, insane handling and suspension.
But it still looks like, you know, a 72 GMC pickup truck.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But underneath it, it's just a monster.
It's got all the modern amenities.
Because new cars are so much more efficient.
Like, you don't realize when you...
So they do stuff like this.
That's not it.
But they have different kinds of builds.
No, so these are all just like the different ones that they did.
Survivor Series, that's what it is.
The Survivor Series.
Well, so I think the Survivor Series, that's what it is.
Like, they leave the outside.
It's interesting to me that older vehicles had so much more character.
Like, I don't know if it's just that it's...
People are doing drugs, bro.
That's what it is.
We nailed it with them.
We sat down with them, and they introduced me to all these people that were the
designers back in GM in the day.
This guy was a freak.
He was wearing, like, crazy red suits and this crazy...
The guy was probably definitely on acid.
And these are the people that created these insane shapes.
And then when the sweeping psychedelics drug act of 1970 came along, they made
everything a Schedule I drug.
Yeah, and that is when cars went downhill.
It is when cars went downhill.
It was early 70s, yes.
You can get a 71 Barracuda and it's still sick.
But you get into, like, 72, 73...
Those cars look like shit.
75, they're garbage.
79, they're done.
Everyone's on Coke.
Everyone thinks everything they do is amazing.
It's just...
You get the movie Showgirls.
Everything lost its art, and it became focused more on algorithms of what's
going to sell and what's more efficient and what's better to produce.
Sort of, but back then, I don't even think they had data they were going on.
They were going on past success.
So if you go to, like, the 1980s, some of the worst movies that were ever made,
like the cocaine years,
those...
I really strongly feel like those people were going on reputations of sales.
And, you know, the studio would put a lot of money behind someone who had a
great reputation.
And this guy's fucking partying and doing lines and writing crazy shit in these
scripts.
And some of them are good, and some of them aren't so good.
But they're all kind of clunky.
They're all kind of disconnected.
That, like, a true masterpiece of a movie isn't.
You know, like Taxi Driver.
Like, you go back and watch Taxi Driver.
That's a masterpiece of a movie.
It's so connected.
You're connected to all the action.
It's like you're on the edge of your seat.
It's wild.
The acting's insane.
Even Jodie Foster as a kid is insane in it.
It's so good.
But cocaine movies in the 80s, they were nuts, man.
They didn't go on algorithms.
I think they just went on what they thought people wanted.
And they probably took polls.
But who the fuck's answering polls?
Polls are the worst way to get information.
Because you're only getting information from people dumb enough to answer polls.
Like, that's such a small group of people.
How many people answer polls when they call you up?
How many people have fucking people with a life have time for a poll?
You know?
Do you think Jordan Peterson has ever answered a poll?
Yeah, like, I always get those calls and immediately hang up.
Yeah.
Just shut the fuck up.
I'm sorry I have to do this to you, but bye.
No, don't hang up.
Someone will beg.
Please.
They can't get anybody to do it.
Yeah, it's fascinating to see throughout history times when people were able to
really connect with other humans.
Like, whether it's the movie or film or Cars or whatever.
It's like, maybe it was the psychedelics or whatever.
I don't know.
But there was a huge disconnect, it seemed like.
After the 70s, with all that, things kind of went off.
And it's interesting, even now, like, I see a lot of the new movies coming out.
They're all just sort of remakes of.
They're just like a reconceptualization of something that's happened 15 years
ago.
There's not a lot of, like, new stuff out there for people to connect with.
Yeah, Matt Damon did this conversation about why it's so much more difficult to
make movies now.
There's no DVD sales anymore.
And it was very interesting.
And it kind of makes sense.
I think it's just, it's really hard to finance those fucking things.
And you want a guaranteed success.
What's a guaranteed success?
You need a superhero.
People like superheroes, you know?
And if your superhero's trans, even better.
You can figure out a way to make it.
Every ethnicity inside the group of superheroes that are there, perfect.
Now we're good.
Yeah.
Now we need CGI.
We need aliens, explosions.
Yeah, I think CGI is a blessing and a curse.
Because, like, I don't know.
Some of the best film, it doesn't necessarily have the best stunts or the, you
know, like, you can tell where some of it's fabricated.
But that's okay.
Because the whole, you know the whole thing's a fabrication going into it.
It's just about, like, being able to believe the story within it.
That's what's important, you know?
Even, like, I'm not a huge movie guy.
And I guess I'm, it's difficult for me to sit three hours and watch something
straight.
My mind's already long gone within the first 30 minutes doing something else.
But Star Wars was really partial to me growing up.
And I don't think they'll ever touch the original series.
Even though, yeah, like, you can tell some of it, like, it looked, even with
some of, like, the renovations they've done on the newer versions of it.
Like, to make, to adding CGI into the old films.
It's, like, just the story of the originals, to me, meant a lot more than the
newer stuff.
Just because of the, you don't believe it looking at it with your eyes as much.
But you leave it more with your, with your mind, like, listening to what it has
to tell you, you know?
I think that Star Wars is, like, generational wealth.
Like, the original guy who started the company was a bad motherfucker.
That guy was out there grinding.
He was selling soap out of the back of a wagon in 1890.
But t
