- The Joe Rogan experience.
- That's the heartbeat of Vegas.
Those are the industry, the Vegas industry
all live off the strip.
The dancers, the magicians, the bottle service girls,
all those girls and all the people, Summerlin, Henderson.
So I was there for two and a half years.
It was great, it was during the pandemic.
I lived next to Nicolas Cage, which was cool.
Caratop's actually the one that reintroduced me to him.
So, and I had known Nicolas Cage
'cause we went to the same high school
from back in the day.
So, so when we connected, it was fucking,
it was weird because I'm like you, huge fan.
- Yeah.
- I mean, he's been doing it for 40 years
and his movies are, you know, he's one of the best actors.
So when I'm, he'll, he'll hit me up.
He'll be like, yo, come out, let's go.
And then he'll like text me
and he'll be in his $500,000, you know, Ferrari.
I'm like, where are we going?
He's like, we'll get some sushi.
So we'll go get sushi.
And then we'll drive down Las Vegas Boulevard.
I'm like, dude, you don't need this.
He's got eight cars.
I'm like, you don't need this.
He goes, yeah, but it's bad-ass.
That's his answer to it.
It's bad-ass.
I'm like, all right.
- He's correct.
That's true.
And his house is awesome.
- Yeah, but you're like, you're a little more sensible.
Like, hey.
- Yeah.
- What are you doing, Nick?
Slow down.
He's trying to be Nick Cage.
- Yeah, he is.
- He's doing it.
- He loves it.
And his house is cool.
And he's, he's, he's great.
Very, very, but he doesn't, you know,
he's not on social media.
He signed an NDA.
He made me sign an NDA.
- Wow.
- That I can't like put any videos or photos anywhere.
No, I'm just kidding.
He didn't sign it, but I'm just saying.
But, but he, but the, one of the first conversations with him
is when I came over to his house, he's like, he's like,
come over, you're my neighbor out of nowhere.
Right?
So I come over, we start having a nice glass of wine.
And he says, I'm not doing your podcast.
I'm like, I didn't ask you to fucking be on the podcast.
I'm just here, what's up?
And he goes, just one thing promised me.
He goes, don't ever, you know, post any pictures
or videos of us together, 'cause I want to be private.
I'm like, cool.
And ever since then, it's been, it's been cool.
Yeah.
- That's cool.
- But I do have a lot of photos and videos of him.
- Of his dick?
- Of his penis.
- Oh, nice, nice, nice.
- No, but he is funny, dude.
- I'm sure he is.
- Yeah.
- He seems like a real character.
And it's so funny that he changed his last name
because he was connected to Francis Ford Coppola, right?
'Cause because of his, his nephew, is that what he is?
- Yeah, no, what he said, what Nick said
is when he first started acting,
he was on the set of, I think it was Fast Times
at Richmond High, he was with, I think it was Sean Penn,
and, you know, there was different, different actors,
and they go, oh, you're just here
'cause your uncle is Francis Ford Coppola.
- Wow. - So he didn't want to be known as that, so he wanted his own identity
and it worked, you know, because America or the world, they don't think like,
oh, that's Francis Ford Coppola's nephew, you know, 'cause his father was
Francis Ford Coppola's brother.
- Right, that was in the 60 Minutes thing, right? - Yeah.
- We talked about it in there.
The 60 Minutes thing was fun, it was very fun.
But that's, what a great move, too, and name yourself after a fucking superhero,
Nick Cage.
It's awesome. - Yeah.
- And he's been in so many fun movies, man.
- Yeah. - I mean, I mean, that guy was in, um, what's the Arizona movie?
- Raising Arizona. - Raising Arizona, yeah.
- Yeah. - I mean, Moonstruck and Leaving Las Vegas.
- But Raising Arizona was fucking amazing.
- So many, so many fucking great movies.
- Yeah, I mean. - Yeah, he's a good dude.
We hang out at this, uh, sushi bar in, in Vegas on Sahara.
- Wow. - It's pretty good.
Um, and we just, you know, he's just, you know, he's very sensitive, as you can
imagine, but he's a sweetheart.
- I'm sure, I would expect nothing less. - Yeah.
- Smart of him staying off social media, too.
- Yeah, it's not his thing. - You don't need it, buddy.
- Yeah. - It's not his thing.
- You don't need it, anyway. You're Nicolas Cage.
- And he goes from, uh, he goes from one movie to the next movie, to the next
movie, and he loves acting.
- Dude, how about Leaving Las Vegas? - Yeah.
- Remember that movie? - Hell yeah.
- Holy shit. - Yeah.
- That movie was heavy. - Yeah.
- Heavy.
- Did you see Pig? - No.
- That's his favorite movie that he did. - Really?
- You gotta watch Pig. - I've heard it's really good.
- It's really good. - Yeah.
- Yeah, he's fucking great.
That and Guest House, my movie Guest House.
Watch Mine Stoned.
Yeah, look at him right there.
- What is Pig about?
- Someone steals his truffle pig. - Oh, no.
- Yeah, and he's not happy about it.
- Oh, he looks wild as fuck. - Yeah.
- Look at him. Where's he supposed to be living?
- Um, I think it's in Portland, in the woods.
- Oh, wow. - Yeah.
- No shit. - Yeah, he's such a sweetheart.
He's such a great guy and such a, you know,
I'm very, um, you know, happy that I got to connect with him.
- Who has my pig? Is this an action movie?
Does he fuck people up? - It's a good drama.
- Good movie. - Is there like John Wick with pigs?
- Nah, not quite.
Not quite, but close, I guess.
- There's all those movies like, you fuck with the wrong guy.
- Yeah. - There's so many movies like that.
