you by onnit.com that's o-n-n-i-t official sponsor of tim kennedy we gotta
figure out a way to sponsor
fighters actually in the ufc the ufc has a there's a muscle farm monopoly right
now yeah we have to break
that i wouldn't care i wouldn't care if it was actually good products but um
muscle farm is not
it's not i don't think so i've never used it what is it protein powders and
stuff it's like plastic
that um fills your stomach up yeah what is it i don't know what is muscle farm
they make all the
typical you know the pre-workouts post-workouts proteins toilet stuff you know
like jacks your
heart rate up to 180 before your workout and then afterwards when and it
supposedly tastes good it's
just full of sugar i don't know i've never had a good experience with a single
muscle farm product
obviously i like on it whoa tim kennedy just laid down the law how rude um i
have nothing bad to say
about muscle farm i have no relationship with them i have no experience with
them but i do have a deep
long and storied experience with on it uh our protein powder is 100 natural and
also 100 sugar free uh the
only sugar is one gram of sugar which is naturally occurring per serving that
comes from the hemp i have
to answer this i have to say this every episode but just because i get asked
all the time if you eat
hemp you will not test positive for marijuana hemp does not have any thc in it
but again if you eat poppy
seed bagels you will test positive for heroin sounds crazy but it's totally
true hemp force we use the
finest available protein powder that we can buy which we have to buy from canada
because the laws are
fucking goofy in america and we're not allowed to grow hemp we can buy it but
we can't support american
farmers which drives me fucking crazy hopefully the laws have been changed and
hopefully soon we will be
able to uh support farmers and buy our own we're supporting canadian farmers
but we'll hopefully be able to
support american farmers and uh maybe even get our own hemp farm right now
though it's a little too sketch
and i don't want to go to jail so we buy it and then we sell it uh we sell the
best that we can find
whether it's strength and conditioning equipment we sell uh just the finest
kettlebells and steel maces
and clubs weight vests if we find something it's good we find something it's
beneficial whether it's a
supplement or a food we sell it and uh we try to get it at the most reasonable
rates possible and we've
find the best quality stuff whatever it is whether it's the best quality
protein powders where it's
the best quality walnut almond cashew butter anything we sell raw organic
coconut oil we just try to sell
the best shit available and we try to sell it to you as cheaply as possible if
you use the code
name rogan you will save 10 off any and all supplements tim kennedy is here let's
cue the music why
the joe rogan experience
tim kennedy ladies and gentlemen i've been wanting to talk to you for a while
dude you're an interesting
cat you've been around the world you're saying that you're laughing like you're
not no i'm not laughing
that um i'm not interesting uh but i had wanted to talk to you in the octagon
for a really long time
so we took a while it did take a long time it took a while 12 years as a pro to
finally get a little joe
interview yeah but the interview was a you couldn't ask for a better
environment to do that first
interview do it you when the ufc fight for the troops you know to do it and to
do it after that
spectacular knockout and just that was intense man and it wasn't just intense
because you won
what was really intense for me is um and i've always experienced this in these
fights for the
troops first of all it's great to be able to go to them and put on these fights
and have them in
these hangers and these tight environments and just the appreciation and the
respect that everybody
has for the fighters is really intense but you first of all you being a veteran
and you you being
unabashed in your love for soldiers and your respect for your your your fellow
military members when you
got on top of that cage and after you know they were cheering and you were
yelling out to all those
people that you loved them i mean this is all off camera man we'd cut to
commercial and you're on top of
the cage and you're just yelling at all those people letting them know that you
love them
that's some intense intense yeah overwhelming emotional near shutdown yeah i'm
walking out to
the cage i see this dude he flies for the 160th which is like the special
forces wing of aviation
the last time i saw that dude was i was handing him my shot buddy you know i'm
like it's a big thing
in special forces community we're real tight you know like i'm handing him my
brother that has bullet
holes in him and and i'm and i'm like i don't want to let him go and he's like
hey i got this this is
what i do you go do what you're supposed to do and get back to work that was
the last time i saw this
dude was handing him my buddy on a medevac then i'm walking out of the cage i
was like holy shit there
is that dude from the 160th that i handed my shot buddy to totally overwhelming
then i have to go in
there and fight and then uh you know nice fifth special forces group is co-located
there so i saw
a bunch of dudes from like the green beret regiment yeah it was entirely too
much emotion i just wanted
to like curl up and cry yeah it's a completely different kind of there's you on
top of the cage
up there in that photo that's just an intense intense picture that picture
should be framed and on your
wall somewhere because that is one of the greatest pictures i've ever seen if
you could cut me out and
just have the dude no no no no no you need to be in there for reference yeah i
mean but that's your
attitude what you just said cut me out and leave the dudes that that really is
your attitude you you
really don't want that you you were saying while you were up there that my job
is is in here is easy
what you guys do you guys are my heroes yep you know good memory yeah i
remember everything that's
disturbing scary don't get in a fight with joe rogan verbally does not go well
for you i remember things just
well i remember important things and that was a that was a deep moment you know
there was a i wrote a
thing a long time ago about uh one of the fights for the troops about the uh
the national anthem and
i recorded it i filmed it on my phone when someone was singing the national
anthem and you turn around
and you know i was i was filming the crowd while it was all going on and the
the feeling in the air the
electricity in the air of hearing the national anthem while you're around
active duty soldiers who are
in a war currently have had friends had loved ones die have experienced firefights
have been there
have come back and now they're here in time off getting to enjoy a fight and
everyone's standing
up and there's electricity in the air man your fucking hairs are standing up on
your back it's just crazy
it's it's intense it's intense it's a totally different experience it's there
yeah i don't know i don't
understand the whole realm outside of like what you can physically see but
there's no way to describe
you know like moments like that where you're surrounded by these heroes that
these selfless
freaking superstars of humanity and um you know they bleed in every sense of
the word for their country
and then the national anthem come on or the flag goes up and you see them all
and there's there's
this energy there that just can't be described it can only be experienced it's
surreal you know that's
the that's the really intense uh aspect of it is that there's there's a lot of
resistance and blowback
towards war and towards the military industrial complex and towards both of
which are horrible yeah
but what what's important is the people everybody wants everything to be black
and white and there's
no black and white in this world there's this gigantic spectrum of shades and
there's there's
there's positive and there's negative there's good and there's bad but there
are real heroes in
the world um pat tillman is a perfect example of a guy who is a real hero in my
opinion a guy who saw
what was going on and said you know what this nfl career i don't need millions
of
