Joe Rogan Experience #1223 - Greg Fitzsimmons

that's it wow a two count from young Jamie
Gregory how are you fella Joe Rogan always a pleasure to be back in the what I
love is that
you kept this studio the same as the old one because the vibe was perfect I
tried to recreate
it I felt like as long as we had the desk we have the heart yeah we have the
heart of the studio the
rest of it's just stuff and Jamie the heart Jamie there's something about I
really think that when
you use a desk for a long time there's something about desks like if you found
out like Hunter S
Thompson's desks was for sale yeah you'd be like holy shit I want to get my
hands on that yeah like
that's got some ooze right you know he wrote on this holy shit yeah nice old
one of those old like
railway station roll top desks yeah oh those are the best yeah I'm gonna
protect my shit while I'm
out so nobody reads my journal one of my all-time favorite photos of him was
him typing in Big Sur
like sitting on like this this outside table typing I think he's on the edge of
a cliff or
something like that in the background you see the water yeah you know that
photo Jamie yeah that's it
right there oh look at that and with the pipe yeah that is one of the most
iconic writing photos of all
time Hunter S Thompson with hair yeah with a typewriter in front of the water
at Big Sur in
probably like 1960 something and you know his schedule did you ever read his
schedule his daily
schedule not only did I read it you lived I read it on air and I might have
read it on air with you
yeah I think he did it's a self-portrait how long so he took the picture
himself by setting it up
so this was in both of them it's what it's listed as this is in Big Sur that
was when he was in
like the the early stages of his eruption that was like right around when he
was writing Hell's Angels
probably yeah 61 yeah that was unique yeah did you ever see his documentary no
there's a couple of
really good ones but um the the one that was the mainstream one what was that
so yeah Gonzo yeah
it was called Gonzo and then there was uh there was another one that was made
by BBC that's really good
too but yeah if you could get a hold of fucking Hemingway's desk wow yeah I
mean maybe like it's
worth too much like you wouldn't want to write on it yeah that's true you know
it's Hemingway's desk
like I can't write on this fucking thing yeah it was Hunter's desk I'd tell I'd
totally write on it
well first you scrape the excess coke off the top just lick it lick it off wipe
the jism from the
underside of the table get the vag sauce off the sides yeah what about his typewriter
how much do you think
his typewriter yeah Hemingway's house and hangouts preserved in Havana wow so
they preserved where he
lived and I wonder if that's where he killed himself I think he was in Cuba
when he killed himself wow
yeah man his um his style of writing and like that whole bravado that went with
him
he was a different cat it was like a you thought of him as like an aggressive
male writer like that's an
odd thing like Hemingway right you know he was aggressive yeah it wasn't I mean
even Stephen King
for all his most horrific depictions of violence and gore and and terror in his
books he's not thought of
as like this imposing physical thing well Hemingway was in the war yeah you
know yeah yeah his elderly
age he was uh he used to go skiing in the winter in uh I think it was
Switzerland and they would all
uh there was no chairlifts back then so you would fucking grab your 50 pound skis
and walk up the side
of the Alps Jesus Christ for like a half a day to take one fucking run and he
would do that every day
that must be amazing for you yeah god damn the kind of exercise like carrying
skis uphill in the snow
yeah that's incredible exercise like I bet they were jacked I bet those skiers
from the olden days
yeah they had to be like crazy athletes yeah and the skis were long back then
they were like twice as long
as they are now when did anybody figure out a ski lift I don't know but I mean
Hemingway would have
been skiing in what the 1930s 1927 god damn dude yeah they walk uphill and ski
down you got to be
dedicated how good are you ever gonna get I mean normally you do in a day maybe
you do a dozen runs
going up a couple miles and this one you do one run that's it yeah you got to
be dedicated
try getting a like a lazy person to do that lazy people will ski you know what
I mean because you just
kind of get into it and you can la de da de da yeah you don't have to like get
crazy right you can just
ski like I'm not good so I ski like a lazy person yeah I just like don't fall
don't fall don't fall
didn't fall like that's literally me skiing because I've had knee surgery I've
had three
knee surgeries it's crazy how quickly you can up your body skiing I am so I've
skied my whole life
I've never had an injury and I ski hard I hit every jump I can find you might
be the only one that I know
that like my friend Matt he broke his ankle Ari broke his ankle and it happened
in the course of
like just a year yeah two friends at school parents at school blew out their
ACLs
ow yeah you don't want to do that when you're 43 you don't right that's the
thing is you get to a
certain age and you the risk reward because injuries take so much longer to
heal yeah and you have so much
less time to live you just the math doesn't work anymore yeah to ski you got to
protect your knees
if you can yeah your knees are so goddamn important whenever people have like
hurt knees and they keep
working out I always cringe yeah they're like yeah I'm not going to get it
fixed I'm just going to
rehab it like what are you talking about rehabbing you're not rehabbing you're
just going to ignore the
fact you don't have an ACL yeah like rehabbing yeah was it going to fix it's
not going to you
don't have the stability in your knee so there's a lot of guys who blow it out
and they keep exercising
they just chew the inside of their knee apart yeah yeah I got something going
on in my the inside of
my left knee for two months if I try to squat down it kills there's like a
tendon on the inside of the
knee and uh so I'm going to start some physical therapy this week to try to
figure it out because I
can't I haven't exercised in two months just because of this one thing what am
I going to do
I do more cardio I don't really lift that much have you um ever thought about
getting like prp
or regenicine or anything into it oh no what's that well prp is uh platelet-rich
plasma
and what they do is they take your blood and there's some sort of a process
they do
and they separate it and then they take this platelet-rich plasma and they
inject it into the
wounded area and accelerates healing yeah a lot of people have really good
results with that
yeah and then there's this stuff called regenicine that's like platelet-rich
plasma but it's
apparently the next step up and what they do is they heat your blood and by
heating it it produces
something I'm for sure if you're a doctor I'm so sorry that I'm butchering this
if you're a scientist
but I think it produces some sort of uh anti-inflammatory serum because your
blood is reacting to the heat
right here's the here it explains I've had this done and it was really
effective really yeah serum
removed from the layer and cultured with glass beads so that a white that white
blood cells produce
i-r-a-p which is a natural anti-inflammatory glass beads going into your knee I
don't understand what
that's saying it says serum is removed from this layer and cultured with glass
beads so it's removed
after the platelet-rich plasma so they make the platelet-rich plasma they get
the serum and then they
and then they culture it so that the white blood cells produce this natural
anti-inflammatory so they
trick the white blood cells I guess maybe for lack of a better word anyway so
this shit it's really
good for uh accelerating your um recovery process for an injury like a lot of
people like do it like
while they if they get surgery they get surgery and then they have some of this
done too it accelerates
the healing right especially as you get older just provides you with uh any it's
actually natural
too you don't have to worry about it but it provides you with this just an
extra boost of healing yeah
for weird neck injuries and back injuries people like it for it's really good
really good for lower
back injuries a lot of it is inflammation you know and so then they do they is
it local they shoot
the blood into the area yeah yeah yeah it's it's freaky they put this little
needle in you and then
they screw the blood cap in there and it's it's like now it's yellow it's like
this yellow serum they
squirt it into your back and you're like whoa damn it's weird yeah it's weird i
think they would do my
cock yeah they'll thicken it up for you but i want your blood in my cock dude i
don't know if that's
legal you can sell all kinds of things right but you can't sell somebody your
own blood is that right
i don't think so do you think you could sell your own blood i mean if you go to
like a blood bank
right i'm sure there's a website you could probably do yeah do you think so oh
like a dark web yeah like
that whole myth about selling people's yeah i'm sure william shatner would be
doing it if he could
no if you could just like if someone was selling blood like some you know there's
a lot of those uh
young enterprising young gals on the internet that sell like dirty socks oh
yeah they'll they sell
toenail toenail clips and shit i'm not kidding man i'm not kidding yeah yeah
nothing nothing goes to
waste no nothing goes blood for sale india's illegal red market what is this
jamie oh this is like
this is uh they're doing it like medically though in an alleyway yeah but that's
how they do it there
man that's crazy are is there still a ban on uh haitian people and gay people
giving blood
that's a very good question because they've they've gotten so close to stopping
hiv yeah they can
get it like not correct me if i'm wrong they can get it like to you to the
point where you're
you can't even detect it oh yeah which is incredible yeah and then now in the
third world
because my uh my friend peter current he lives in uh zimbabwe and uh no mozambique
and he used to work for the health department in la county he was the guy that
was in charge of aids
prevention and so he got a job working over in africa and he said that you can
now cure not cure
but stabilize somebody with hiv with a pill that's like 60 a month or something
like that wow yeah they've
got the price way down in africa now that's incredible why is there so many uh
cases of hiv in africa
um well i think when nutrition is poor then there's more cutting and bleeding
because i had heard that
a lot of what you see in terms of like uh if they're talking about uh aids in
africa that you it's very easy
to put aids like put like that category aids um that sometimes it's just people
with damaged immune
systems from a host of different diseases that it's sometimes the people aren't
getting tested i always
wondered like how many of those people are tested for hiv right right what is
but the the fact that a
guy like magic johnson has had it since you remember when you heard magic johnson
i was in a panic yeah i
felt like it was a zombie movie like it's happened it started and then people
are just going to get it
we're all going to die of aids everybody when our generation when you and i
were like 21 that's
what everybody thought everyone's going to die from aids right now magic johnson
looks great yeah he's
still alive yeah i think how many people have died who didn't have hiv and we're
worried about this one thing
i remember he wanted to he wanted to play in the all-star game and all the
players were like nah i'm good
it's gonna be a slam dunk contest by the end of this dude jesus christ
but what did what did what did damon wayans used to have a bit about dennis rodman
dude it was about dennis rodman spitting in magic johnson's mouth
