Joe Rogan Experience #721 - Eddie Bravo

Two, one. Yee-haw! Edgebrah. Yo. My man. I like how we could just start the
podcast like just right off. Yeah. Fuck commercials. Yeah. I noticed that like
a week ago. Changed the flow of the conversation. Made it way better. Yeah.
Yeah, that was bullshit because it was like, you know when I really realized it
was bullshit, like I did a podcast with Stan Hope and he was making fun of the
commercials while I was doing it. I was like, why am I doing commercials in
front of them? Why don't I just do that later and stitch it in?
And I was lucky where the deal that I had for commercials was really just for
iTunes. And so like when I do this, it goes on YouTube first. So as it streams
on YouTube and you stream, no need for commercials. Fuck it. So and then I put
the ads in later. But on iTunes and on YouTube, there's no commercials.
You know what it changes to is this podcast is, most of the time anyways, is
about just you and your friends just talking about bullshit. Yeah. You're not
getting right to, it's not like Ari just wrote a book and he's on here to
promote it.
You know what I mean? Sometimes that happens. Sometimes. Like Paul Stanley and
stuff.
I get a lot of those, but it's still even with them. It's like you want to sit
them down and go, so what's it like to write the book? How hard was it? How
long does it take? What's the process?
The conversation before the podcast starts. There's some serious conversations
going on. And then instead of just starting the podcast on a dime and then
continuing the conversation, you hit the commercials and you never get back to
that conversation.
A lot of the times. That's what I noticed. That's happened. Well, you know, a
lot of times, like we haven't seen each other in like a week or two and we've
got a bunch of crazy shit to say to each other and you just start.
And then by the time the podcast starts, so what's up, man?
You know, you learn, you learn a lot about yourself, like listening to, you
listen to your own podcast.
I listen to the good ones. I don't at all. I can't, I can't stand listening to
myself.
I have no desire to listen to myself. The only time is when I'm going through
Mastering the System, my tutorial, I do sit there and I am interested in how I'm
teaching and what I said and how I could have made the point clearer in my
teaching.
So I, I, uh, that's the only time. But when it's a podcast and I'm not talking
about jiu-jitsu and I'm just talking about like just bullshit, I don't want to
hear myself.
It's good to hear though, but for the same reason, like you realize why you're
annoying to you.
Like I've found things that I didn't know I did, like little, little ticks,
little weird things like people do, like a big one is saying like people like
there's like Tom Segura.
I love him to death, but that motherfucker out likes me. He hurts me sometimes
with the likes, like there's like a guy way, like if you got like a guy like,
and there's like a way like, uh, did he say that?
Everybody does. We all do it, we don't even know.
When guys are telling a story, it's hilarious. And he's like, she came up to me
and started mad dogging me. And I was like, what the fuck you looking at? I
paid for all that shit.
And you didn't say none of that. You just said, I was like that. I had that
look on my face, but I didn't say shit.
And if you don't question, did you actually say that? You're like, no, I was
like, I was, I was thinking it.
I'm like, if I wouldn't have asked you, you would have made it seem like you
were this bad motherfucker in this story saying the reality, you didn't say
shit.
And I was like, fuck you. Who paid for that shit? You said that? No, no, I
thought it like, I thought it.
And I was like, fuck you, man. Fuck you. And where you came from, bitch.
Did you actually say that to him? No.
Oh, man. I hate that shit.
Another one that I do that I need to figure out how to stop doing is I say, you
know, you know, I don't know, you know, it's like, you know, you know, like you're
trying to form your point.
You're trying to like formulate it in your mind.
And now you, you know, you sympathize more with black people when they're
always saying, you know what I'm saying?
You're like, we're basically doing the same thing. We're just not saying.
So why are we making fun? You know what I mean? Everybody says, you know, you
know, you know, you know, you know, they just say no what I'm saying.
But if they stretched it out further, it would get even more ridiculous. You
know, I'm saying word God, you know, I'm saying word God, if like, you know, I
was like in the middle of every sentence, I think you started something.
I think I might have started something. You know, I'm saying word God, you know
what I'm saying word God.
Yeah, well, black guys were calling each other God for a while on the East
Coast. It was a weird thing that was going on. Like, I went to, I went to see
Terry Norris fight at a bar with a friend of mine who's a comic and his buddy.
They, we, we worked together and me and this, this comic and he brought his
buddy with him and we all went to it. Terry Norris fight tonight. Let's go.
I'm going to see Terry Norris fight live on whatever it was, HBO. And they,
they were talking to each other and they were talking to, man, he hit him with
that left hook God.
You see that jab God, you see that head movement God. And I was like, whoa,
what are they doing? Like, is this a, like, you know, I'm white, obviously.
So I'm like, what the, am I, am I missed a meeting? Like, this is, this seems
to be a new thing. And then I remember shaking my head going, this will not
last. You guys, you're going to feel silly for calling each other God in a
couple of years.
You can't just do, this is, or maybe, you know what? A lot of people are trying
to come up with their own shit and try to make it stick. You know, some, but
that was all panning out, some doesn't, but people are, they're trying.
That was a big one though. That was everywhere. It wasn't like these guys, it
was their shit. It was like black guys were doing that all throughout the East
Coast.
In the 90s.
It's very prestigious to have your, your, a saying you made up blow up.
Oh yeah.
There's one, you know, people always say, holler at me, holler at me.
Yeah.
This guy, Rico Santana, he started scream at me. He was pushing that. Scream at
me, scream at me. And I'm not sure if it's stuck.
Never heard it. When did he do this? How long ago?
Five years ago.
Yeah, dudes will try their own shit.
Hashtag scream at me.
Yeah. You don't, you want someone to holler at you, but holler is, what's up?
You know, that's not, scream at you implies like they're angry at you.
You're like, you're setting yourself up for danger.
I like it. I like it. Scream at me.
Scream at me, bitch.
Scream at me.
But you say it like in a sexy little voice.
Oh, okay.
Right? Like you tell a chick.
That chick's going to stop calling you. She's going to run away. She's not
going to respond to your text.
I don't know.
She's going to be like, this fucking dude is crazy.
I don't know. Come on.
Come on. Can you imagine that?
Scream at me?
Call me later. Scream at me.
I bet if you said it like that.
Well, you're a funny guy.
So if you said it like that, it would probably work because she would start
laughing.
Yo, scream at me.
You're like, uh-uh, wait.
Listen, you silly bitch, I'll scream at you later.
Exactly. There you go.
That's it.
Oh, it's going to work for women.
How the fuck did those tics, like little things like that, like, you know what
I'm saying, you know, it's like, like, where are those coming from?
And they're basically like complicated versions of, uh, even fucking.
Like a lot of times people use fucking, fucking, fucking guys, fucking, same
thing.
It's all, they're, they're elongated versions.
But fucking's the worst, right?
I do that a lot too.
I used to.
When you're younger, you do that more.
And you're nervous.
Nervous.
There's a lot of fuckings.
Yeah.
Nervous.
Like, fuck, man.
And then I was like, fucking.
And he was like, fucking.
And I don't give a fuck.
And I was like, fucking, fuck that dude.
When I was doing stand-up in Boston, they, they had a thing they used to call
the fuck meter.
They were saying, like, if you're going to go do stand-up, they would say,
Eddie, don't break the fuck meter.
Like, when you use them, they should mean something.
And they were, they were so right.
It taught me so much.
Because when I see a guy who says fuck too much, I know that guy's nervous.
You know, if he starts, fucking, fucking, I'm walking down the fucking street
and this fucking, this fucking, it's like, you're off.
There's something off.
You're, you're, you're using one word too many times.
No matter what word it is.
And if it happens to be fucking, like, you're trying to sound like you're
together.
You're trying to sound like you're upset, but you're not really.
Or if you're, if you are upset, you need to collect your thoughts.
You know, and that's what, you hear that when you listen to a podcast.
Whereas you, you just, like, most of the time you're just talking.
You don't, you don't remember how you said it.
You just don't.
Very little, very rarely, unless something really crazy happens, you know, how
often do you really remember how you said things?
What's so funny?
No, I'm just thinking, uh, man.
I better not say it.
It's something that I probably should not talk about, but it's funny to me, but
it's not podcast material.
Oh, okay.
I'm sorry.
The one thing that I, damn it, Eddie Bravo.
Well, write that down, Jamie.
The beginning, there's not a chance in hell you're going to remember what we
talked about.
Maybe I will write it in my notes.
Oh, man, notes are huge.
God damn it.
Do you use notes when you do your, uh.
I use notes for every motherfucking thing.
Do you do them for seminars?
For everything.
Really?
On my notes, like, everything.
On your phone, you mean?
Everything.
Do you transcribe it?
All my shit.
Do you do the voice transcription thing?
No, I haven't tried that.
Oh, it's so good, dude.
So good.
So accurate.
It's kind of, I use it all the time.
Like, if I'm in my car and I got an idea, I used to get panicky.
I'd be like, fuck, I got to pull over.
And I started coming up with reasons to say the idea over and over and over
again so that
I didn't forget it.
Now, I just grab that phone, hit that button, and go, blah, blah, blah, blah,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Put it down.
I'm gone.
Yeah.
I use it for jiu-jitsu a lot for teaching.
There's so much shit to master in jiu-jitsu.
It's so vast.
It seems like it's getting crazier, too, with the advent.
Like, the more attention that people are putting on leg locks these days.
It seems like I'm watching jiu-jitsu, and I'm like, man, I'm not, you know, I
see transitions
on the ground that I understand, but when I see some leg lock transitions, I'm
like, I
have no idea where these guys are going.
Yeah.
I just see scrambles.
I'm not sure.
I'd have to watch that again and again and again to see how he set that up.
Yeah, you just got to get it broken down to you in a system.
It's just like the rubber guard, because you would have fifth degree, sixth
degree, eighth
degree black belts out there in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and they never really
looked into
the rubber guard at all, and they think, oh, they're just throwing their legs
up, and they're
grabbing their leg, and then there's an armbar or a triangle, and a guy slip
out, and then
they're just grabbing their ankles.
They don't realize how precise and microscopic it is.
And that's what I used to think of leg locks.
I thought leg locks where you just jump on legs.
I'm a black belt, and I'm still thinking this, until about a year ago.
I thought dudes just jumping on, you get that outside one, or you get that
inside one.
I was pretty good at a heel hook coming off, being mounted, but I didn't spend
a lot of
time with heel hooks.
It just seemed like, ooh, I don't want to get my MMA fighters.
I want to set
