Joe Rogan Experience #551 - Graham Hancock

Hello, ladies and gentlemen. This episode of the podcast is brought to you by DraftKings.
DraftKings.com, America's favorite one-week fantasy football site where you can
win enormous
cash prizes every week. You've already researched the players for your season-long
fantasy team,
especially if you're like Jamie and you're a serious dork about it. Turn that
knowledge
into instant cash at DraftKings.com. Last year, these are real numbers, one
player turned
$11 into $4,000 in one weekend. Another player won $100,000, his first time
ever playing,
and another player won $1,000,000 in one day just playing fantasy football. I
used to think fantasy
football was ridiculous, but now I'm starting to understand it. It's like when
I found out how
much poker players made. I went, whoa, wait a minute. I used to say, poker?
They're playing cards like a
bunch of little kids? No, no. They're making stupid amounts of money playing
fantasy football.
That's real. I can't believe it. Like men. Like men. Yeah. Keep your season-long
league where it is,
but also play one-week fantasy at DraftKings.com to win huge cash this weekend.
Hurry. Get your entry
into the Millionaire Maker event, where first place takes home a million
dollars. That's a million
American real dollars. Not like McDonald's bucks or fucking Chuck E. Cheese
dollars or some shit.
Is there a McDonald's dollar? I might have made that up. Head over to DraftKings.com
now and enter the
promo code ROGAN to play for free to become a millionaire. Imagine if you win a
million bucks
by entering the promo code ROGAN at DraftKings.com for free. That would be
ridiculous. DraftKings.com.
Bigger events, bigger winnings, bigger millionaires. Enter ROGAN for free entry
now at DraftKings.com.
That is DraftKings.com. Oh, she sent me another one. The MeUndies one, which I'm
wearing MeUndies right now,
by the way. Not that you needed to know, but there's a new underwear sponsor.
Where's the fucking
MeUndies thing, man? See, that's what I hate when people, when she sends me
separate ones. Hold on a second.
Let me find it. MeUndies. They're the best underwear I've ever had. I can give
you one without
any, any preparation, but I'll tell you what, I didn't think anything of it. I
used to buy cheap
underwear. I used to buy underwear in like a package, those little plastic
packages that you
get at like Walmart or something like that. Just throw it in the cart and keep
moving. But when they
started sending me these MeUndies, I was like, what is it? Just underwear? Like,
what's the big deal?
Well, this is one big deal. The average man doesn't change his underwear more
often than
every seven years. That's ridiculous. Like, the average male buys a pair of
underwear and
keeps that rotten butt filter for seven years. That's terrible. And they're not
that comfortable.
They also have that weird hole in the front that no one understands. That shit
was made like
during the depression when people didn't understand how to really pee out of
your, I mean,
like, what is that hole? Nobody uses that goddamn hole. Okay. Do you use that
hole? Shut up.
Anyway, MeUndies.com is seriously the most comfortable underwear you have ever
tried on. You will try
these on and you will say, oh, they actually wick moisture away from your body.
They feel perfect.
They don't ride up on you. They pull moisture away from your skin so that you're
cool all day long.
I have them right now. I wear them every day now. It's the only underwear I
wear now. I know that
sounds ridiculous. But if you try MeUndies.com, just give it a shot. Listen to
me. Try it. And you
will see that there are underwear that are better. It's like everything else.
Like, someone came along
and they figured out the better mousetrap. They figured out how to make
underwear better. Go to MeUndies.com
forward slash Rogan and get 20% off of your first order. That's 20% off your
first order when you go
to MeUndies.com forward slash Rogan. And you'll even get free shipping in the
United States and our
friends to the north in Canada. Free shipping up there as well. I guarantee you're
going to be happy
with them. They're the best underwear seriously I've ever bought. Go to, get
that 20% off. Go to
MeUndies.com forward slash Rogan. And last but not least, we are brought to you
by Ting. If you go to
rogan.ting.com, you can save $25 off of any of the new Ting devices that they
sell at Ting. What Ting is,
it's a mobile site that, it's a mobile service that uses the Sprint backbone
and they buy time on the
network, on the Sprint network. So if you are, if you are on Ting, you're
actually on the Sprint
network, but you do it by Ting's rules and Ting's rules will save you money. My,
my bill last month
was 18 bucks. Excuse me. Now I don't do a lot of phone calls. I mostly text,
but that's fucking
ridiculously cheap. 18 bucks. And I go online all the time with it. Uh, $21 is
the average monthly bill
per device for Ting customers. $440 is the average annual savings for, per
device, uh, for a business
with one to 20 employees. That's, uh, that's pretty interesting. What's
interesting to me is that
companies are starting to, uh, it's actually 11 to 20 employees, a business
with 11 to 20 employees,
$440 is the average annual savings. Um, what they've, what they've done is they
figured out a way to make
you feel better about your relationship with your cell phone provider. Like for
a lot of people,
cell phone, cell phone provider is just this big company and they have their
rules. And if you don't,
if you go over, it costs you money. If you, you know, there's a bunch of weird
shit that goes on.
Like if you want to cancel, you have to pay some sort of an early termination
fee. Ting's removed all
that. No early termination fees, no cancellation fees. You just cancel. That's
it. If you don't want to
be a part of them anymore, you're gone. You don't have contracts. You don't
have any of that stuff.
You use what you use and that's what you pay for. You don't have like X amount
of minutes per month.
It used to be that it, you would buy a certain amount of minutes a month, like
a hundred minutes
a month. And if you only use 70 of those minutes, you never got credited for
those other 30 minutes.
So Ting, they did it first. The first way they did it was to credit people.
They decided to give
people the money back and credit their next bill. And then they decided like,
why are we charging them
for stuff they're not using anyway? Let's, let's just set it up so that we
charge people for what
they use. And in doing so you will most certainly save money. And it's the most
logical and reasonable
way to provide cell phone service. In my opinion, I don't see why anybody would
not want to just do
it that way. The only reason is it benefits the cell phone providers to charge
you a fixed rate.
Then when you go over that fixed rate, they hit you in the overage charge. And
if you go under that
fixed rate, it's to their benefit. So Ting cut all that stuff out and they,
they provide you with an
awesome service with a great company using the sprint backbone and they do it
completely ethically.
And I just, I like doing business with them. They're the official cell phone
provider for this podcast,
the, the phone that we use when I coordinate guests and make calls and stuff,
all that stuff is all
through Ting. If you go to rogan.ting.com, you will save 25 bucks off of any of
their devices. And they
have all the finest Android devices in stock. Like the one that I have is the
Samsung Galaxy S5,
which is pretty awesome. And it has a lot of features that like, even with the
new iPhones that are
coming out, it doesn't have like, it's water resistant, which I don't
understand why these people are
making electronic devices that aren't water resistant when they can make ones
that are water
resistant. It just seems logical. If you go to rogan.ting.com, you can find all
the various
devices. And if you're a cheap person or frugal or, or you just want those
people that realizes like
most, most of the time you don't really fucking need the latest and greatest
and all this shit.
It's just a, it's a fetish in a lot of ways. And if you're a weirdo and you
like flip phones,
they have those too. You can buy one of those Samsung M400s for 72 bucks. You
can buy one of the older
iPhones. You get an iPhone 4 for 112 bucks. Yeah. Or you can get an iPhone 5.
They have iPhone 5s.
iPhone 5s is coming. They have the Galaxy Note 3, the HTC One M8, which is an
awesome phone as well.
Anyway, rogan.ting.com. Go there. Save money. Be happy. All right. Graham Hancock
is here.
Why fuck around? Young Jamie, cue the music.
Joe Rogan Podcast. Check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day. Joe Rogan Podcast by night. All day.
My friend, Graham Hancock. I'll take these off since you're not wearing them.
Good to see you, buddy.
Nice to see you, Joe. Good to be back.
Good to see you returning from floating. I saw your tweet which showed a
picture of,
it looked like someone was in space.
Yeah, because that's how it felt. That's how it felt to me. Now, I have to
thank you for this because
you're the guy who turned me on to floating. I never did it before. You spoke
to me about it last year.
I was so harassed and so rushed. I never got a chance to do it. I thought I'd
do it when I got back to
England. It didn't happen. So, I got in touch with your friend, Crash, a few
weeks before I came out
here. And he very kindly fitted me in. And I think his place is called Float
Labs Technologies.
They're in Venice Beach. So, it's a totally new experience for me. And what
made the experience
even more surreal and special, because I'd asked for an appointment fairly late
in the day,
was that, I mean, he needed more notice. He's constantly booked up.
Yeah, isn't that amazing?
What he could give me was the two rooms, one for myself, one for my wife, Santha,
at midnight.
At midnight, two nights in a row. And actually, there's something about
floating at midnight,
which I think is really special.
I don't do any floating during the day.
Right, right. It's a really good time. It's a really good time to do it.
So, we went along to Venice Beach and parked the car and Crash came out and
took us in. First
of all, he showed us his collection of African masks. And he has got the most
amazing, slightly
fearsome collection of African masks up there. It's really incredible, actually.
This is a deep guy.
He's thinking about a lot of stuff. I've spent a lot of time in Africa. I've
never seen a collection
like that. It's just amazing. Dogon, you know, some of the really fascinating
peoples and their masks.
Then he takes us down. He talks us through what it is. So, you know, you go
into this room.
And in it, I've seen in some places they have like a pod where you close a lid
over yourself.
But that's not what he's got. He's got a bigger room than that. And there's a
big full size, feels like a huge metal safe.
If you have trust issues, you know, it's a little bit, you've got to, you're
going to close yourself up in a huge metal safe in the darkness.
It takes a little bit, you know, a little bit of courage, I would say, is
required to do that at midnight on Venice Beach.
We did it. And, you know, we go in there at certain warnings. You don't want to
get the salty water in your eyes.
Yeah.
If you do, it's a big distraction. You don't want to get it in your ears
because it's going to block you. So you wear earplugs.
It doesn't bother me. I just go in with my ears. I don't wear earplugs.
I think I would prefer to because the feeling of being completely deaf was
slightly alarming for me.
Although I realize that sensory deprivation is part of the deal.
Yeah.
And so you close the door. There's a towel hanging off the back of the door in
case you do get salty water in your eyes.
And then you just lie down in this, I guess, body temperature, saline solution
in which it's impossible to sink.
And there you are in the darkness, completely without sensa
