The Joe Rogan Experience
Because we did hot yoga then I came back
Yeah, we did hot yoga for your show. That was fun. That was dope. That was fun.
Then Vice ran out of money and
You know couldn't do the show anymore. Well, somebody got money. Didn't Shane
Smith make a fucking ton of loot?
Shane's the man. Yeah, I love that dude
I still talk to Shane, but no, it was I think the end of Wong's World was just
They were like, yo, we still want to do Wong's World, but can we make it
domestic and I wanted to do films and I was just like
Love you. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go make this film. So they wanted to do it in
the United States because of travel costs
Yeah, you know, and just cuz viceland the first couple years. It was just the
the accounting was off
On the people were just spending money crazy, bro
It started out they would take these guys with glasses on these nerds and send
them over to like the middle of a goddamn war zone
These dudes be film with a flak jacket on the bombs are blowing off in the
Middle East and they're just reporting there
You're like, whoa
Vice is why? Yeah, it was the best cuz it was vice would just pick the most
dangerous shit and be like
Here's $30,000 go with the like, you know 5d camera. Yeah, and fucking come
back with some footage and try not to die
And then once it became the TV channel, it got it got crazy cuz I mean I was
probably the biggest perpetrator
So like all in all fairness to Shane
Somebody needed to be like Eddie you're burning money crazy cuz I was going to
like F1 tracks
And and I literally the last episode I wanted an F1 track in Abu Dhabi and
Shane was there and he's like
What are you doing here? You're a fucking food show and I was like, I don't
know. I gotta drive this car
It's like getting caught by your boss
That's hilarious. Oh, you're gonna try formula one food, bro. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. I was like, I'm gonna try the concessions
Dude, they sent David Cho to the Congo to look for a dinosaur
Yeah, that's the most ridiculous shit of all time. It might be the greatest
vice episode ever, bro
It's an amazing episode. Yeah that in high mo's arctic adventure. That's my
favorite one
That's the one about that dude who lives in Alaska. He's subsistence survives
and it's very small cabin
Yeah, he's the last person that's allowed to own this cabin in this wilderness.
I haven't seen it. Whoo
That one's heavy. That's heavy
But that does the show episodes the best cuz there's so many people now
especially in LA that are like
For a honeymoon or like for the holidays. I'm gonna go to the Congo
I want to I want to go to West Africa and I'm just like bro watch that episode
real quick. Yeah, watch that episode
That's not where you're staying, but it's close to where you you trying to go
like check check that episode out
You're in the middle of a conflict zone. It's very dangerous being down there.
Yeah, you know, it's just
Poof and probably no dinosaurs
No, there's probably no dinosaurs
I want to go to Ethiopia, but I'm not going where Joe wherever chill went. I'm
like
I'm not going it was wild man. He won't win. He camped with the Hadza. He
stayed with the Hadza and went hunting with them
Yeah
He was saying that when they shot they were shooting baboons to eat
He said it's crazy when they shoot a baboon it grabs the arrow and like you see
it grabbed out
You're like yo
That's a little too weird, you know
Cho was really putting himself in danger. Oh, yeah. I was like I was more like
the Vanderpump
You know, I mean, I was like let's have a nice
Formula One in Abu Dhabi
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's live it up. Beautiful people, beautiful land
Yeah, let's see some fucking people here. Have a good time. Stay in a nice
hotel. Yeah
I chose like the opposite of conflict zones
