- The Joe Rogan Experience.
- So this fucking Dave Chappelle thing's crazy.
Last night, I guess it was, someone attacked him
at the Hollywood Bowl, he's fine.
I checked in with him today, he was laughing about it.
He's in good spirits, there's a video actually,
he was laughing like right afterwards.
- Yeah.
- 'Cause Jamie Foxx apparently had a cowboy hat
and he jumped on stage to help.
Jamie Foxx with a cowboy hat jumped on stage
to fuck that dude up.
The guy was five foot, that arm's broken by the way.
- Definitely.
- That arm's fucked.
It's also like the way they led him into the,
like when he got into the actual stretcher,
you could see he's fucked.
- It's so funny, you can tell the type of beat up
that somebody is when they're getting kicked on the ground
from different angles by different people.
It's a different type of beat up look.
- Yeah.
- You could tell that that left side of his face
was the side that was either on the ground
or totally like away from everything.
- And the other side was getting punched.
- Just everything's swollen on the one side.
- Yeah, yeah, he's fucked.
That guy, I mean, Jesus Christ.
- You could tell, you can always tell because the,
did you, you saw the actual video?
- I saw the video.
First of all, Dave Chappelle has good hips.
- Yeah?
- The guy shoots in on him.
- Yeah, he almost sprawled on him.
- And he kind of turned with him.
He kind of Kung Fu'd him.
He came a little Aikido.
- Have you watched the video?
As the guy's coming in, he's coming in this way
and Dave kind of like turns a little.
- And it's balls too, Chappelle's a big boy.
Bigger than you think he is.
- Well, the guy's crazy, clearly.
There's something wrong with him.
Look at this.
- And I mean, there's just no way to describe
how not expecting that you are when you're on stage.
- Yeah, look at him, he just runs away.
- And then the comedian clicks in and he comes back
'cause he's like, wait, I have to, it's my mic right now.
- Look at this guy running.
Oh my God, that guy's never tackled anybody in his life.
- No, Chappelle almost makes it clear out all the way.
- Yeah, almost.
If he just had a little training.
See, that was all an instinct.
If he just had a little training.
Imagine if he just punted that dude in the head
when he went down.
- Yeah, one of those Masvidal knees.
- There is no security in the front row at this thing.
Like, there should have been someone there
that was scanning the audience for fucking weirdos.
They're ready to sprint.
- Crazy.
- Well, we live in strange times, man.
I mean, and after the Chris Rock thing,
that was one of the things I was worried about.
I was like, are people thinking
they're gonna start smacking comedians now
if they don't like what they're saying?
- Yeah.
- And what I'm thinking, or what I'm worried
about is that people think that's justified.
Like, people keep, they keep using the same things.
I saw an article.
They said his transphobic statements.
They're not fucking statements.
They're jokes.
They're not jokes that are transphobic either.
They're jokes that feature trans people.
They're not transphobic jokes.
His whole bit in that last special
that everybody was mad at is essentially a love letter
to his friend that killed herself
'cause she was supporting him
and she got attacked on stage.
The idea that that in somehow or another is transphobic
just because he's talking about a trans person
is fucking crazy.
- Right.
- And then they just don't wanna be talked about.
That's essentially what it is.
Like, they're saying it's transphobic.
If you're even mentioning trans people as a subject,
which is bonkers.
- Yeah, because it's really the opposite, right?
That means that they're equal.
- Yeah.
- If you're being included in an American free conversation
and obviously a comedy set,
like that means that you're part of the everything else.
You're now--
- Yeah, I mean, of course,
everything's part of the everything else.
But it's like,
if there's stuff that you cannot discuss at all
because it's so hot, the subject can't be brought up.
Well, this is a nonsense way of communicating.
You can't communicate like that.
- Right.
- You can't say people can't discuss topics.
- Right.
- Or discuss something that is prominent
in culture right now.
I mean, there's a lot of discussions
about trans rights and about use of bathrooms
and about, you know, trans kids
and the White House talks about it
and Jen Psaki was doing an interview
and she was crying about it.
Sort of misrepresenting what the don't say,
supposedly don't say gay bill in Florida,
which isn't don't say gay.
You know, this is a, it's a weird time
because we have to be able to look through the fog,
the fog of the anger that we have for the opposite
or the anger we have for the opponent
because the way that the Democrats
and the way that Republicans look at it today
is there's us and there's them
and it's so polarized that anytime something comes up,
anything like these subjects,
like you want to find out what side
is on what side of the issue.
like is my side on this is okay
or is my side on this is a bad thing.
