Joe Rogan Experience #1848 - Francis Foster & Konstanin Kisin

Joe Rogan podcast check it out the Joe Rogan experience trained by day Joe Rogan
podcast by
night all day what happened first of all gentlemen welcome I've been in
enjoying your show so it's
nice to see in real life and talk to you in person it's cool yeah it's really
great of you to have
us man it's such a pleasure to meet you because you know all of us are inspired
by what you started
you know we all look up to you so it's amazing being here oh thank you well it's
nice to meet
you guys too I enjoy your your conversations I really think that people like
you that are
reasonable and intelligent and have legitimate opinions grounded in facts it's
like it's very
important oh it's tremendously important hold on it's like one microphone's not
on see this is
another one this is why I do most of the talking on our show man yeah this is
how I'm getting
fucking silenced it's the goddamn government yes we'll figure out what's up
yeah we were just shit
talking about Joe Biden before we started so that's probably what's happened
there man yeah but why
would it only cancel yours yeah that Francis fella's gotta go yeah get rid of
him there is there it is
there we go the dulcet tones of Francis Foster now we're up and running yeah
yeah um what is it like
uh doing pot I mean how many podcasts are over in the UK is it a popular thing
it is a popular thing
but like everything it really started to get motoring during COVID particularly
in our space with
comedians when everything shut down and then but then comedians realize hang on
a second we were just
doing the comedy circuit and then wanting to be on TV and then that moment was
a really eye-opening
moment where they realize ratings on TV are collapsing nobody's watching TV and
in for ways that we'll get
into through the podcast so what else are you going to do and everybody started
to get onto YouTube and
podcasting because the thing is Joe like whatever happens in America in the UK
we do it four or five years
down the line yeah but not just that good and bad yeah good and bad we get your
best stuff we get all
your shit as well man what's the shit that you guys are getting well this
cultural uh thing that we
always talk about you know we we import straight from you and that's why we
have conversations like
during BLM we had uh these protests in the center of London with these
protesters going hands up don't
shoot in front of cops who don't have guns
it's so much of it we just download your shit and then just put it out as if it's
our own you know
it's so odd it's so funny man like that when Trump came in 2016 I think it was
or 2017 only 2017 there
were mass protests but when like the crown prince of Saudi Arabia came over
fresh from like you know
chopping up a journalist no one protested everyone was cool that's strange isn't
it yeah it's the power of
American culture man that's why everyone talks about it because it affects
everyone well it's just it's
not balanced the outrage is not balanced you know even the outrage about things
you should be outraged
about like Jeffrey Epstein that outrage was balanced right sort of right but
what about the Catholic
Church like why why isn't everybody really freaking out about I was just in
Italy and one of the things
that's nuts is the Vatican is a country yeah yeah it's a country filled with
pedophiles yeah it's a
country filled with pedophiles and stolen art it's a small like hundred yard
like what is it a hundred
acres I think yeah it's a hundred acre rather um country inside of a city
filled with pedophiles yeah
absolutely this is why I love America man because in the UK we have libel laws
so if you say something
like that and you don't have to be able to prove it otherwise you can get sued
well you can kind of
prove that that's one I mean I read the other day that I think it was until
five six years ago the age of
consent in the Vatican City was 12 years old wow is that true yeah I think so
yeah yeah and I was just
like wow pull that up Jamie's gonna fact check you I hope that's not true yeah
what year did that change
I think it was about 10 years ago something like that bump it up to 13 yeah
yeah yeah make it
respectable do you know what I mean yeah oh my god holy shit oh my god the
Vatican City's equal age of
consent being raised from 12 to 18 following the announcement of an overhaul of
the Catholic Church
criminal code by Pope Francis Francis is like the most progressive guy right in
terms of popes yeah
he is I mean that's not really saying a lot do you know what I mean well he the
Benedict guy he was
wanted in other countries for crimes against humanity I mean like what he was
doing was really evil he was
moving offenders to other places and one of them he moved a guy that went on to
molest a hundred deaf kids
it's it's absolutely insane a hundred mm-hmm you know yeah and it's it's
insanity I mean this guy was
already molesting and then they say well let's just instead of trying him and
removing him from the
church we'll just move him to a place where people can't hear I mean it's
amazing how people cover this
stuff up like I don't know if you followed the grooming gangs stories from the
UK but basically we had a
situation for decades where young girls were being abused in in the in the
thousands and potentially
half a million and it was covered up because I'm not aware of this at all well
right so what happened
was it was basically people from a certain background it was what we call it in
the UK South Asian so
Bangladeshi and Pakistani mostly and they were abusing seek and and local
British white girls in the hundreds of thousands we had one of the victims on
our show
Dr. Ella Hill very brave woman and it was covered up for decades because and we've
just had a report come
out to try and find out why it was covered up why it wasn't investigated
because these people went to
the police and they were told there's nothing we can do for you oh yeah and it
wasn't it was it wasn't
investigated and wasn't reported on properly because of quote sensitivities
about race right so this all this
stuff gets covered up for all kinds of it's it's mind-blowing man what people
get away with yeah on this sort of thing
because the politicians who should have been exposing it the people should have
been talking about it the
police who should have been investigated were worried about being labeled
racist in fact one famous tweet from
a labor MP told some of these people to shut up for the sake of diversity retweeted
a tweet sorry retweeted it my
apologies shut up for the sake of diversity these are rape victims Joe and some
of them were murdered
yeah and not just rape victims as well kids kids underage kids yeah
and you haven't heard about it because at all right it's massively taboo even
to talk about
uh in in polite society gets you know people feel very uncomfortable talking
about this because it comes
from communities like you know what you would say like Asian communities and
white particularly white
working-class girls and Sikh girls so people feel very uncomfortable about this
they're far more
comfortable talking about Epstein because in their heads it's punching up
whilst if you talk about
this crime it's seen you know is punching down that it's racist and it's far
easier for them to silence it
but the problem is Joe is when you do that what happens is that nefarious
people can then get
involved in this and they say these words they're not representing you look
what's going on if the
powers that be aren't going to represent you I will and that's when things
start to take an ugly turn
we need to be able to talk about these subjects it doesn't matter how
uncomfortable where they are
it doesn't matter how difficult they are it doesn't matter how awkward they
make us feel
because we had a great guest on the show called Ed West and he made one of the
most
profound points I've ever heard on our show which is if you are not prepared to
talk about a subject
honestly then you are never going to find a solution to that subject to that
problem and and what
happened was when we got the one of the victims on our show Dr. Ella Hill I
remember because we were
trying to get the member of parliament who was one of the women that started to
expose this she wrote
an article in one of the newspapers and she got so much hate that she didn't
want to talk about
it anymore so when we called her up and we said you want to come on the show
and tell us about this she
said I just I just can't do it and that's when I remember sitting in the car
talking to Francis on
the phone and I went we've got to a point where a member of parliament whose
job it is to protect
these children is getting so much hate for speaking out about it she doesn't
want to talk about it anymore
so this woman who's the doctor yeah she was presumably molested when she was
young yes yes so how long has
this been going on decades this has been decades it's been going on since the
90s yeah so a lot of these
people now are like my age in their 40s and it's still going on and how do they
have access to these
girls like what is they would they would basically prey on vulnerable girls
maybe they didn't have a
parent or maybe did they you know something like that they apply them with
alcohol drugs get them
addicted and when when some of the families tried to go and take their kids
back the police I can't
remember the exact details but it was in several cases it was like oh that she's
just a prostitute
mm-hmm and and the father would get arrested for trying to get his daughter out
of that situation
Jesus Christ yeah for the sake of diversity that's what that's what some people
look not everybody was
doing that I think most people were just afraid because of the racial component
you see what I'm
saying yeah yeah this is this is why the sorry Francis this is why this this
identity politics is such a
problem because when you stop treating people as individuals who behave
correctly or incorrectly lawfully
unlawfully you start to go well these people can't commit a crime anymore right
and these people commit a crime by
just being whatever that's a problem we got to get back to the MLK idea of
everybody being judged by the
content of their character were we ever there I don't know we would try to get
back to it
back to the idea right it's a good point that you picked me up on it what I
mean is we got a bit get back to
trying to get there yeah do you see what I'm saying yeah that's what we got to
get back to the idea that
that's what we that's the dream right and we'll probably never get there
because we're human beings
we're not perfect right that's one of the most disturbing aspects of like this
hardcore left
progressivism is that they are willing to ignore reality for the sake of this
narrative that they
have and also they're willing to lump to make these mass generalizations and
lump everyone like and like
like particularly if they're hard to defend like straight white men like that's
a great one that's a
awesome scapegoat you can toss that into their wealthy people you know upper
class people with
money it's just a very bizarre thing that's going on where people are unwilling
to look at people as
individuals because it just doesn't fit this narrative they're trying to push
yeah and that's
so true I remember when Brexit happened in 2016 I started to notice more and
more when people were
talking the term old white man became an insult yeah and suddenly if you're an
old white man that meant that
you were racist particularly if you voted for Brexit and that really angered me
so and and for the for the reason my dad
he grew up in a very poor part of the north of England which is Wigan
Orwell actually wrote a book about it the road to Wigan pier talking about the
deprivation of that of that particular part of the world
and my dad voted for Brexit my dad voted for Brexit because he said that he
wanted the UK to be independent
of Europe he loves Europe but he didn't believe tha
