Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.
Can you do glasses or no glasses?
It's a good suit, man.
I like them.
You like them?
They look good.
Yeah?
Yeah.
You like them?
Yeah, they look fucking great.
Try them on, what do you think they look like?
Those look fucking tough.
Those are tough, dude.
Those fucking look good, dude.
You got to get a pair of glasses, dude.
Do you need glasses?
I do for reading.
Those are what I can't see my phone without them.
Really?
Yeah, I can't fucking see my phone without these.
What power are those?
I believe it's one eye is different than the other.
It's just prescription.
One eye is different than the other, really?
Yeah, like one can see better or something like that.
Did you get injured or is it just natural?
No, I think they call reading glasses in England 45s because around 45 is when
your eyes start
going.
That's what happened to me.
Yeah.
That's probably exactly when it happened to me.
I remember doing the podcast and I couldn't read off a laptop.
I was actually doing a podcast with Neil deGrasse Tyson and I wanted to ask him
about something
and I pulled up the laptop and I was like, I can't fucking read this.
Yeah, out of nowhere.
I had perfect sight, perfect everything.
Yeah, it just falls off like a clip.
45, boom.
Couldn't read.
But you know what?
There's a way to stop it in its tracks.
There's supplements that you could take.
There's a company called Pure Encapsulations and they have a thing called macular
support.
And I started taking macular support and it stopped it.
Stopped it in its tracks.
Really?
Yeah.
So now I can read my phone.
Like it might have even actually got a little bit better.
So like I don't have a problem reading my phone, like reading text messages and
shit.
It's no problem.
But I prefer like if I'm reading an article, I'll read with glasses on.
Well, the thing that sucks too is that they don't make cool glasses for men.
Reading glasses.
Those are fucking cool.
Well, this is...
They have like a nice red tint to them.
This is from this guy in the East Village, my friend Anthony.
They look like they're from the East Village.
He's...
They do.
They look cool.
Yeah, this guy makes them.
Like this is like a Rolex.
There's 500 of these made.
This is 230 something of 500.
Why doesn't he make more?
It's not him.
It's...
I can't read it.
Inside, Jean-Paul whoever.
Oh, so it's like a designer.
But he's a...
What is it?
Optometrist?
Optometrist.
Hard word to fucking pull.
But he's cool as shit.
You walk in and he customizes everything.
Like he'll take this fancy glass frame and he'll be like, let's put this tint
on it.
Let me do this.
And then you go in and he'll sand it down to fit your nose.
Oh, that's nice.
So you can pick like all these crazy frames and then he makes it yours, which
is great.
I mean, it costs money, but I love shit like that.
It seems like it's worth it though.
I love when people take something and make it unique and not everybody has it.
Customize.
I love people who customize shit like that.
Like this guy could just be, yep, here's your prescription, here's your Bauschum
Loms or whatever, stupid glasses.
He's like, I'm getting the coolest frames on the planet that are, you know, he
has one, he get this one with, you'd look good in these too.
They have Thunderbirds, silver Thunderbirds going down the side.
It's like Elvis would buy these glasses.
Dude, I'm in.
You have to be, you have to be the motherfucker to wear these glasses.
And they're like 1600 bucks.
Are they online?
Can I see what they look like?
Um, yeah, his, uh, his name's Anthony Shit.
I forget his name.
Yeah, he has a whole Instagram.
I can't, no, not Anthony Shit.
Where's my phone?
I can't, I can't.
Go grab your phone.
Go grab your phone.
I'll tell you.
I want to see these because those are dope.
The ones you have, I love the red tint.
There's something about rose colored glasses.
You know, uh, I remember one time I was like super high and I put on a pair of
rose.
Anthony Aiden.
Anthony Aiden, sorry.
Yep, Anthony Aiden.
Is this him right here?
There he is.
Anthony Aiden Opticians.
Coolest guy ever.
East Village.
Where's the Thunderbird ones?
Thunderbirds, yeah.
Type in Thunderbird.
Here we go.
I wanted these glasses so bad I couldn't pull the trigger though because I'm
just not, you know?
Zero results for Thunderbirds.
What about Thunderbird?
I got a picture of it.
No, nothing for birds.
Just go through the catalog and see if you can find it.
They look dope though.
Page one of five.
Yeah, look at these glasses.
Jaune, yeah, uh, okay.
There you go.
Now you're getting there.
Look at these.
Jaune, oh yeah.
I don't know.
Maybe there's a Thunderbird on the side.
Maybe they have them like behind the case.
No, it's, he gets, he only gets one pair in black, one pair in tortoiseshell
and they're six, like 1700 bucks without prescription.
Wow.
And, and they're, they're fucking nuts.
Yeah, those are my glasses right there.
The ones right there?
Those are the, those are my, the ones he made those and put them up on his site.
Very nice.
Yeah.
Um, here, let me see.
I got this picture of it.
But I love guys like this who just take something and make it better.
Oh yeah, for sure.
Yeah, it's cool.
Craftsmanship.
Exactly.
That's exactly the word.
I, I, craftsmanship.
Yeah.
I'm a big fan of craftsmanship.
Me too.
Yeah.
I, I love when people make shit, you know, I love, uh, when people make art.
I love when people make like tables, like this table.
When I got this table done, I love the fact that somebody carved this.
This is a, our friend Drew.
Yeah.
What was Drew's last name, Jamie?
Who did the, the table?
Drew Teague.
He's a bad motherfucker.
And he made us this table.
We had another one like this at the old studio, but it was a little bit too big.
It was enormous.
And so we had them construct this.
Well, you look at a table like this and you're like, yeah, I could do that.
And then you realize how hard I watch wood stuff on Instagram all the time.
It's my favorite.
Just seeing some guy taking a tree and making it into something is nuts to me.
Why is it so, it's so satisfying, right?
Watching someone carve things out of wood and saw and hammer and nail and make
it all precise.
Yeah.
Like there's so much that goes into it.
And this one dude is just sitting there and it was a tree.
It was, it was in a forest.
And now it's, it's in somebody's house and generations are going to eat off
this thing and talk about fucking everything.
Yeah.
My table's from the fifties.
Really?
I got to, um, yeah, we moved into my house up in Westchester.
Uh, they were like, you want to buy this furniture, 500 bucks cause the lady
was dying or whatever.
And she lived in the house her whole life.
And I looked at him like a hundred percent cause it's mid century modern, uh,
you know, uh, furniture.
It's like the Danish were making this furniture.
You know, Europe was making these amazing, uh, wood furniture back.
Like mad men type of furniture.
Right.
I, and America started making them.
I was like, this is that stuff.
So we took it.
And, uh, I found out the table's worth 2,800 bucks.
The chairs are worth, uh, you know, 250 each.
The liquor cabinets worth 4,000 to all the stuff we got was from the fifties
when she got it.
And I, I'm sitting there going, this whole family grew up on this table.
And now we, I was very important in my house that when I'm home, we have dinner,
uh, me and
my wife and my son, we sit at the table and we have dinner and I talk because
that's the
time where bond find out about your day.
You need a break from your day where, you know, you're doing all this shit and
now you're
going to sit here and just talk.
No iPads, no homework, no fucking Instagram, no bullshit.
Just sit down and talk.
And I'd say, what was the best part?
What was the worst part of your day?
You know?
And you know, this happened recess, of course.
I'm like, no fucking recess.
Lunch.
Nope.
Don't count.
Yeah.
You know, and, and we shit, we shit this table and then someone's going to buy
this
table in 50 years.
It's probably worth even more.
It's like, you can't recreate a 1950s table.
It is a, you know, you can make a copy of it, but it's not a 1950s.
There's something about an old thing.
That's like baked in memories and thoughts.
Yeah.
Like there's a scrape on the table.
That's from their kid.
I know it.
That their kid did some stupid shit and she goes, you scraped the table.
Yeah.
You know, and that he's, he's, he's got to be like 60 now.
And if he came and saw it, he'd be like, dude, I did that.
Uh, when I was like seven, I just got a fork and I started to, you know what I
mean?
Yeah.
There's a story behind that shit.
It's like, like a Rolex.
When you get a really nice watch, the craftsmanship that goes into that watch,
fuck the watch.
Like, Oh, I got a Rolex.
It's not about that.
There's like engineering, the engineering of it.
And then when you scratch it for the first time, you get so bummed out, but if
that's your scratch, you know what I mean?
So the next guy that gets this watch or my son, when he gets it, that's my life.
This is a big market for those really old Rolexes.
People love those real old ones.
Go to Bob's, you know, Bob's watches.
Do you know what that is?
Yeah.
No, I, I know Bob.
So you're a watch guy.
I love, I like watches.
Yeah, I'm a big fan of, uh, of, of watches.
Yeah, me too.
I love them.
I go, I go to Mayer's in, um, Tampa and I go to, uh, watches of Switzerland and
New York.
What is Mayer's?
Mayer's is a big watch place in, uh, in Tampa.
Just a watch collector's place?
No, they're just, uh, watches of Switzerland.
It's like, uh, authorized Rolex dealer.
So you want to go.
You're just all about Rolexes?
I know.
I like, I like German watches.
Um, I got a, I like, I like watches.
Like when I went to, when I toured with Louis, uh, in Europe this year, in
Paris, I was like,
I want to get a French watch.
I got this $400 watch called Lip.
It's just L.I.P.
It's a, it's a nice watch.
It's a diver's watch.
It's not, it's 400 bucks, but it's, it's gorgeous.
So I like watches.
I have, uh, two, uh, Phoenix, the Garmin watches.
Hmm.
I love the Garmin watch because it lasts for 68 days.
Yeah.
I've got one of those.
They're the best.
Like Apple watch.
I got one of those, but it lasts 24 hours.
You got to recharge it.
And if you have a new one, the ultra last couple of days, but it's fat.
It's like a toaster.
It's still like two days.
Like the Garmin is, it's 68 days.
Yeah.
If you set it right.
And also like, if you run the GPS, it's, it's less, but I mean, it has that
option.
You could run GPS on it.
Like you could track your whereabouts and shit.
A hundred percent.
Yeah.
It's something about, I love watches.
I love that whole, that whole, uh, I love knives.
Me too.
Uh, you have a, do you get a Jack Law yet?
No.
What is that?
It's a, it's a bushcraft knife.
Bushcraft?
Yeah.
Are you learning bushcraft, Bobby?
Dude, buddy, I'm telling you.
By the way, you should never take those glasses off.
Why?
They're perfect for you.
Aren't they?
They're perfect.
I got to take them off at some point.
Every now and then.
Take them off when you fuck.
Dude.
Yeah.
Well, then I guess I'm never going to take them off.
15 years married.
Fucking God damn it.
Um, um.
Bushcraft.
Bushcraft, dude.
I love bushcraft.
What does that mean?
What does that word mean?
I mean, I don't.
It means like learning how to like live in the bush, right?
I'm not, it, I don't, I'm not a bushcrafter.
You never heard of me and Ari and Joe List, the bushcraft party boys?
No.
You've never?
No.
He's saying like it's like a fucking hit album or something.
It was.
How would I know?
It was a fucking hit.
It was a hit.
I've never heard of it.
What's the bushcraft party boys?
What does that mean?
Dude, we, bushcrafting is like when you go in the woods and you survive.
You make a shelter, you make a chair, you, you, you, you get all the stuff you
need.
Do you k
