Speaker Time Text
joe rogan
Yee-haw!
We're fucking live.
I was just about to take a sip of coffee, but this shit is way more important.
We're here with Jim Florentine, hilarious stand-up comedian and transracial pioneer.
You were doing that.
You were pushing the transracial movement like about two, three decades ago, right?
jim florentine
I was.
You know, living with Jim Norton, I've seen a lot.
joe rogan
That video, there's a video of you guys.
Was it you two living together where you had the fucking black mold?
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
When you move the picture and you see the mold on the wall, people fucking die from that shit.
Like, the amount of mold you guys had.
jim florentine
I know.
I had it in my bedroom and I would just, I put tinfoil on the walls to cover it.
Around by the bed.
It was all the way up coming up, climbing up the walls.
I just put tinfoil on.
Oh, it should be fine.
joe rogan
That is so fucking crazy.
Who made that video?
jim florentine
It was somebody from O&A show came over and did the Cribs.
joe rogan
God.
Like, people get really sick from that shit, right?
jim florentine
I know.
I don't understand how we didn't get sick because we had it for like a year.
We're paying $800 for a three-bedroom right outside of New York City in the Jersey side and splitting it three ways.
I had a girlfriend who lived with me at the time, too.
So we're paying like $266 a month.
joe rogan
Wow.
That's pretty sweet.
jim florentine
And we weren't making any money, so we figured we'd move right next to New York City.
joe rogan
Here's a video.
It's going on behind you.
brian redban
Did you get tested to see if you had anything from living there?
No.
jim florentine
Fuck no.
joe rogan
Tom Likas had to evacuate his whole house.
Tom Likas, they had to tear his walls down.
They have to, like, I guess they treat the mold to kill it.
They've got to tear all your walls down, and they've got to do these, like, tests of the air to make sure there's not spores that are flying around the air.
I mean, it's a real infestation.
It's fucked.
jim florentine
I know.
We didn't even look it up to find out if it was toxic.
joe rogan
I'm pretty sure it's not good.
This is sick.
It's dripping down the side of this painting.
Now they move this painting.
jim florentine
We went to a garage sale around the corner to buy more paintings just to cover up the mold.
That's what we would do.
brian redban
Dude, that cannot be good.
joe rogan
Oh, it's super bad for you.
It's absolutely super bad.
jim florentine
There's my damn Reno jersey hanging up.
joe rogan
But you gotta think, just the sheer air that's in that room, it's gotta be filled with spores and shit, right?
brian redban
And I think that's very, very poisonous.
Like, you probably have some kind of fucked up shit from that.
joe rogan
No, I bet he's fine now.
brian redban
You don't?
joe rogan
But I bet back then you were probably suffering from just a lot of stress on your lungs.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
What am I, a doctor?
brian redban
Was your voice before really high-pitched?
Was it like, hi guys?
jim florentine
No, it's always been like this, yeah.
joe rogan
Jim's always had that voice.
That didn't work.
But when you're fucking young and poor and you're a comic, that is the way to go.
jim florentine
266 a month.
joe rogan
Fuck.
The lower your bills are, like for comics, it's like the whole thing in the beginning is you've got to get through the spot where you don't make any money, figure out how to do it, and then start making money.
Start getting road gigs and start...
But that area where you just...
Like, it's so important to fucking save as much money as possible.
jim florentine
Yeah, we were living like an hour south of the city in Jersey, me and Norton, and we figured we needed to get close because we were going in there like four or five nights a week trying to get in the clubs.
I moved in with...
I didn't even like this girl.
I just wanted her to pay a third of the rent.
I really didn't like her that much.
I'm like, look, we can cut this in threes.
joe rogan
That's hilarious.
Look at Jim, all fresh-faced, like a little lad, like a little boy.
Oh, your bathroom.
Sweet, merciful Christ.
I had a shithole of an apartment in New Rochelle.
It actually could have been a lot worse.
It was mostly families and shit in the neighborhood, but that was the same thing.
It was the cheapest place that I could get, that had a place to park, because I had to do a lot of road gigs.
I did city gigs in New York City, but at a certain point in time, I was like, fuck, man, these sits are only 10-15 minutes long.
You've got to travel all over to do them.
They don't pay any money.
I could just go to Connecticut and make $150 tonight.
I could go to Long Island and make $150.
You could make real money.
jim florentine
I think that's when I first met you, is Bob Levy and his wife had all these gigs, these one-nighters, that paid like $150, $200.
joe rogan
His wife was hot.
jim florentine
Oh, my God.
joe rogan
Good Lord.
jim florentine
It was insane.
joe rogan
She was one of those, like, what happened there relationships.
First of all, Bob is hilarious.
Chicks love, like, he's so funny.
Like, have you ever hung around with Bob Levy?
Do you know Bob Levy at all?
brian redban
Yeah, but I haven't hung out with him.
joe rogan
He's fucking hilarious.
That dude's hilarious.
He was at...
I watched Artie Lang headline in Vegas once at the Luxor.
It was me and Joey and Eddie Bravo went.
Because we were there for the UFC. And he went up and he was doing some shit where he was having girls eat his asshole.
They put blue cheese on his ass and he was describing why he couldn't do that anymore because of lawsuits or whatever.
But he would put blue cheese on girls' asses and eat it on stage.
jim florentine
Right on stage, right out of her ass.
joe rogan
Maybe you would do it, but I don't know.
He was a famous comedian.
I mean, Bob Levy's like a nationally known comedian, and he's doing this.
brian redban
Are these girls from the audience?
jim florentine
Yes.
A guy would go to his wife, go up there, come on, let him eat blue cheese out of your ass.
What's the big deal?
I'm like, that's unbelievable.
joe rogan
It's so crazy.
It's so crazy.
But he's just a funny fuck.
Like, people were heckling him, and he was just torturing him.
Bob's been around forever.
He's an old pro.
jim florentine
He's one of the best nightclub comics out there.
joe rogan
Old pro.
jim florentine
Old pro.
Just kills every time.
joe rogan
Knows how to do it.
He's just a funny guy.
He's just been around.
He's a good dude, too.
Goddamn, did he have a hot wife.
jim florentine
Unbelievable.
She's still hot.
She came to my show about a year ago.
I'm sure she is.
Still hot.
joe rogan
Crushing.
jim florentine
It was insane how hot she was.
Like, Bob, you don't deserve that.
unidentified
How does that happen?
joe rogan
If she lived in California, it would kind of make sense if Bob was on a sitcom.
If Bob was on a sitcom and she lived in California, like, girls like her, I think, are more common in California.
But in Jersey?
Jesus fucking Christ.
They didn't even have a number for that.
She wasn't even a 10. You gotta go...
It's like a 10 plus.
jim florentine
Executive class 10. She hung in there for like three years and then she...
unidentified
She couldn't take it anymore.
joe rogan
They were booking gigs.
I did a bunch of their gigs.
jim florentine
Yeah, that's when I originally met you, because you'd do a bunch of one-nighters.
joe rogan
Such a good dude.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
Always been a good dude.
Funny, crazy fuck.
jim florentine
Yeah, he would...
And you know when he had to stop eating blue cheese at a girl's asses, because he was going through a divorce, and...
His ex-wife, the second wife's lawyers, were using the footage on YouTube against him in court.
So you had to tell the audience, look, I've got to stop eating blue cheese, and they would boo.
He goes, look, this shit's on YouTube.
I'm trying to get custody of my son.
joe rogan
Oh my God.
It's just like specific dressing.
What about Thousand Island?
No, blue cheese or nothing.
Like, look, this girl is there.
He puts blue cheese on her ass and he eats it on stage.
brian redban
What a lucky guy.
joe rogan
Oh, he's a savage.
jim florentine
And he holds on, too.
He doesn't let go.
Like, he'll hold them and they're trying to run away and he's...
joe rogan
He's a fucking savage.
jamie vernon
Yeah.
joe rogan
He's a savage.
He's, look at that girl's asshole!
Jesus Christ!
brian redban
Wow.
joe rogan
Blue cheese in Wildwood.
I mean, it's kind of like a cultural legend thing.
By the way, when I first heard that he was doing it, I wasn't even remotely surprised.
I was like, oh, but I believe he's doing that?
Alright.
unidentified
Does that make sense?
joe rogan
It's fucking crazy!
If somebody told me that Greg Fitzsimmons started eating blue cheese out of girls' asses, I'd be like, whoa, what the fuck happened to Greg?
Greg went south.
He went crazy.
Greg's gone crazy.
But when I heard it was Bob Levy, it was totally acceptable.
If you know him, something like that's completely acceptable.
Like, oh yeah, that's probably what he does.
jim florentine
The first time he did it, this gig got canceled.
We were just hanging out at Holiday Inn in the room where the comedy was supposed to be, and some girl was there, and we were drinking with her, and somehow we got her to go, hey, we mustered up like $37 if he can eat blue cheese out of your ass, because we're eating wings.
And Bob said, I want to eat this blue cheese out of your ass.
And I go, how much would you do it?
She goes, I don't know.
And I got 37. She goes, okay, fine.
And he ate blue cheese just in front of like four people.
And Levi's like, I got to close with that.
unidentified
I go, I don't know.
jim florentine
I go, it worked between us friends.
I don't know if that's going to work on stage.
joe rogan
Oh my God, I got to close with that.
What kind of a fucking animal?
What kind of a fucking animal offers a girl $37 to eat blue cheese out of her ass and then after he does it says, I gotta close with that.
unidentified
I'm fucking crying.
joe rogan
Oh my god, I'm fucking crying.
Those are the beautiful people that you meet in stand-up comedy.
I know.
You only meet those people in stand-up comedy.
They don't exist in other professions.
brian redban
Or like Extreme Elvis.
I've met that guy a few times.
unidentified
Oh, he's crazy.
joe rogan
His show is amazing.
I don't think he does that anymore.
brian redban
Yeah, I don't think he does either.
joe rogan
It was a fucking amazing show.
Extreme Elvis is an Elvis impersonator.
And he takes his clothes off and he pisses in this girl's mouth.
It's fucking crazy.
He gets totally naked.
Yeah.
And they're really good musicians.
Like Penn Jillette.
Did Penn Jillette tell them about me?
I don't know who told who about them.
But he and I talked and he wound up hiring the guy to do like a party at his house.
And Penn's like strict, like no drugs, no this, no that.
So you had to do it sober.
Because Extreme Elvis would do all shows completely fucked up.
Like drink a gallon of fucking whiskey on stage.
That's him right there.
jim florentine
Holy shit.
joe rogan
Yeah, dude.
I mean, you ain't seen nothing yet.
brian redban
So weird.
joe rogan
I wrote a whole blog about it.
I wrote a whole blog about it a long time ago, like way back in 2003, because it was amazing.
This show was amazing.
unidentified
He goes, who wants to drink the King's piss?
joe rogan
The girl next to him goes, I do, I do.
He just pisses in her mouth.
She's lying there.
She's topless.
She's hot, by the way.
And she's talented.
And she can play.
I forget what she did, whether she sang or she played guitar.
I forget what instrument, but I remember overall it was a very good show.
They're very talented.
On top of the fact, it was insane.
He's pissing in this girl's mouth.
And some guy from the audience, or it was a girl, some girl tried to stick a beer bottle up his ass.
Because he was totally naked.
So some girl comes up behind him and starts sticking this beer bottle up his ass.
And he grabs her hand and starts putting it in the right hole.
And then she panics and she runs away.
Like he was helping her shove this beer bottle up his ass.
jim florentine
Holy shit.
joe rogan
It was a fucking crazy show.
brian redban
Did you see what Jamie just put up?
It was a poor cue.
joe rogan
I'm not surprised.
I'm also not surprised that he doesn't do it anymore if he was doing these kind of things on a regular basis.
Because that's fucking dangerous for your asshole.
You can't just have random strangers stick stuff up your ass.
They won't be so kind.
jim florentine
Yeah.
That sounds like G.G. Allen, when he would just take a shit on stage and just throw it at the audience before the first song.
joe rogan
I'm telling you, though, this dude is really good.
Like, as a musician, he was really fucking good.
That was the craziest thing about the show.
It was not just that it was this freak show.
He was doing the freak show thing, but he's a fucking talented musician.
Like, he does a wicked Elvis.
Like he's doing Suspicious Minds and the whole audience was singing along.
We're caught in a trap.
I can't walk out.
unidentified
Like the whole crowd was going, because I love you too.
joe rogan
And these guys, he's got his dick out.
Okay?
He's fucking naked on stage.
He just pissed in a girl's mouth.
And they're singing Suspicious Minds.
I mean, it's a fucking show.
jim florentine
Now, the girl that he pissed in her mouth, is she in the band?
joe rogan
Yes!
jim florentine
Okay.
joe rogan
And she's good!
I forget what she did.
Fuck, I wish I could remember.
Because this was like 12 years ago.
unidentified
We saw it in like 2003. So every night he'd piss in her mouth?
Oh, my bad!
joe rogan
I don't know how many times they did shows, but I talked to him briefly.
He was telling me all these different times he's been arrested, all these different times they wouldn't give him his money.
Because a lot of times the clubs, they don't know what the fuck he's going to do.
This guy's getting his dick out, he's pissing in girls' mouths and shit.
I don't think they understand the show.
I just really don't think they understand what they're signing up for.
So these rock venues would have him come in there, and then they get fucking mad at him, they want to beat him up.
jim florentine
And didn't pay him at the end of the night.
unidentified
Yeah.
jim florentine
Holy shit.
I gotta find out if this guy's still around.
I want to see this show.
joe rogan
I hope he is.
But I hope he takes better care of himself.
Like, you can't just drink a bottle of whiskey every night and do this.
I can't imagine how he could do this show all the time.
This is a fucking super dangerous show for your body.
I think he's got a bunch of chickens picking.
He's lying down there tied up, and they put grain all over his cock.
And he's got a bunch of chickens that they put on top of the sheet, and they're pecking at the grain.
It's right over his dick.
This is so fucking bizarre.
brian redban
Who's that guy over there?
joe rogan
Exactly, exactly.
Who's that guy?
jim florentine
Holy shit.
joe rogan
He's out of his mind.
brian redban
That's like Ari Schick-Fear.
joe rogan
Last time I saw him, I was going into the Paul Provenza Green Room show.
Did you ever do that show?
jim florentine
No, I know what he talked about.
joe rogan
But I didn't get a chance to ask him whether or not he's doing it again.
Fuck that guy was good though.
brian redban
He was at the Comedy Store probably like two years ago.
joe rogan
See if he could get any of him singing.
What's that?
jamie vernon
I thought he was.
joe rogan
Well see if you can find one where there's actual singing because the crazy thing is that he's really fucking really talented.
It was a great show, though.
There's very few shows where you go, fuck yeah!
You get out of there and you go, I saw the king piss in this chick's mouth and then have the whole audience sing along to a song.
It was awesome.
jim florentine
That's great.
brian redban
Is there anything like that right now that's big?
joe rogan
It's hard to do something like that.
This was 2003, so the internet was around.
It wasn't around like it's around now.
It's not the same thing.
You would go to jail.
You're not allowed to do that.
You can't just pull your dick out.
brian redban
Insurance and everything.
joe rogan
Yeah, everything.
jim florentine
Yeah, no one's gonna take a chance anymore.
joe rogan
By the way, what the fuck is wrong with the world where a guy can't piss in a girl's mouth on stage like that?
You can't prove to me that that's not art, because it is art, okay?
If you can make a show that's that fucked up, you got a guy who's Elvis.
He sings really good.
He's got a fucking talented band with him.
Oh, one of his band members, she takes off her clothes, her tits are out, and he pisses in her mouth.
And his dick's about that big.
The whole thing is ridiculous.
It is a goddamn ridiculous show.
And the pissing in her mouth make the show better, like as an artistic piece.
jim florentine
Absolutely.
joe rogan
For real, because it was just more surreal and more fucked up.
But how is that illegal?
Goddamn communists.
Jim Florentine.
jim florentine
I don't understand.
He'd have to do like backyard shows at this point.
joe rogan
Is this him singing?
What year is this?
2010?
unidentified
2004. Is that what it said?
joe rogan
Well, there was a lot of this at the shows, too.
A lot of fucking screaming.
People couldn't believe.
unidentified
What is he doing?
joe rogan
I used to have an Extreme Elvis t-shirt Fuck, I think I lost it somewhere.
I think I left it in a hotel room somewhere.
brian redban
Don't you hate that?
joe rogan
Fuck, I hate that.
brian redban
Ex-girlfriends taking your shirts.
Hotel rooms.
joe rogan
It's Elvis, baby.
jim florentine
I think he's doing that song Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath.
unidentified
Yeah.
Elvis doing Ozzy.
jim florentine
It's beautiful.
joe rogan
Well, I think the folks at home get the point.
But go check them out.
unidentified
If you're still doing it.
jim florentine
There's one band, Gwarb, they're kind of around anymore.
The lead singer died about a year ago.
unidentified
Yeah, I heard about that.
jim florentine
They got a great stage show.
joe rogan
Was it like that?
jim florentine
They just shoot jizz on the crowd and stuff like that.
unidentified
Yeah.
brian redban
Yeah, there was a lot of special effects, like things coming out of chest and stuff like that.
jim florentine
There was a girl in the band.
She gave birth to a baby.
brian redban
That's what it was.
jim florentine
And the baby came out and they put her right in the wood chipper and the blood went all over the audience.
I was like 22 years old.
I'm like, that's the greatest thing I've ever seen in my life.
brian redban
I wish, that's one thing I wish I got to see.
I never got to see a Dwar concert.
unidentified
Oh my god, they threw a fake baby in a wood shepherd.
jim florentine
Came right out of her, gave birth, and put her right in a wood shepherd.
I think they're still doing shows with the Mulder members and stuff, but Grey Band always went to see them live.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
How did they not go to jail for that?
How did they not get, like, there was some protest, some family advocacy group or anything?
I mean, I would think that someone would protest you putting a fake baby in a wood shepherd if that's a part of your act.
jim florentine
Whatever president, they would cut his head off.
Whoever was president at the time, they'd cut his head off on stage.
joe rogan
You can't still do that, though, can you?
jim florentine
Yeah, they still...
I saw them two years ago, they were doing Obama.
unidentified
Really?
jim florentine
Cutting his head off, yeah.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
I would think that the Secret Service would come get you if you did some shit like that.
brian redban
Yeah, that's why...
joe rogan
Isn't there, like, rules?
brian redban
I thought you weren't even allowed to say, like, I want to kill the president.
unidentified
Hey!
joe rogan
Someone's going to take that as a fucking sound bite, dude.
brian redban
No, you didn't let me finish, of Jamba Juice.
You know, or something like that.
That's why I would always say something at the end.
joe rogan
Don't say that, man.
jim florentine
I know George Bush.
They did it for Bush.
unidentified
Oh, my God.
brian redban
Here's Circuit City.
joe rogan
Look at this.
unidentified
Look at the outfit this fucking guy's got on.
joe rogan
Does he have a fake dick?
Is that what I saw?
unidentified
What is that?
joe rogan
He's got a giant fake dick?
jim florentine
He's gonna fuck him.
joe rogan
It's a fist?
What is his dick?
Oh my god.
unidentified
He takes his head off and squirts in the crowd.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brian redban
This is so ridiculous.
It's kind of like something for kids when you go to Disneyland or Universal Studios, like one of those shows, but for adults.
joe rogan
Do you think they know about this?
jim florentine
I'm sure they do because they were doing President Bush when he was in office or whatever president is.
unidentified
It seems like he could go to jail for this.
joe rogan
Doesn't it?
brian redban
It kind of falls into cheesy horror movie kind of category.
joe rogan
Well, for sure.
But I mean, it brings up an interesting conversation about making fun of things and what you should and shouldn't be able to make fun of because of that Charlie Hebdo thing that happened.
Do you know what that is?
In France, the people that ran this magazine, they had this magazine that did a lot of satire drawings of Muhammad.
And these dudes showed up and fucking gunned them all down.
Killed everybody.
And they killed the dudes.
They had a manhunt for them.
These two radical Muslim dudes.
But that was just, you know, drawing...
Drawing pictures, which everybody's like, well, that's fucked up.
You can't do that.
You just can't.
You can't kill people for drawing a picture.
But we do have certain things you're not allowed to do.
Like, you literally can't say, I want to kill Mr. President.
You can't say that.
You couldn't say his name.
If you said that, if you said, I want to kill that guy, or I want to kill the president, like, that's illegal.
Like, they could literally lock you up for that.
Which is weird.
Because, like, you know that's kind of a figure of speech.
You know, like, people say that all the time.
Oh, I want to kill that guy.
I fucking hate him.
I mean, like, if there's a guy in a movie that sucks, like, you don't like him as an actor, you might say, oh, I want to kill that fucking guy.
You don't mean it.
brian redban
Right.
joe rogan
But is that illegal?
Like, if you say that, like, the president has some stupid thing that he vetoes or something that people don't agree with.
If you said that it's a common figure of speech, but you said that and you did it publicly, they could fucking take you in.
jim florentine
Yeah, the Secret Service is at your house the next day.
Ted Nugent said something a couple years ago about Obama, not saying I want to kill him, but he said something.
I forget what the quote was, and the Secret Service was at his house the next day.
joe rogan
I think he was saying something like if Obama gets arrested, he might wind up in jail.
jim florentine
Yeah, we're all going to be dead and in jail or something like that.
So it wasn't even direct at the president.
joe rogan
I think he was saying that he might wind up in jail, that Nugent might wind up in jail.
jim florentine
Something like that, yeah.
joe rogan
Implying, you know, it could be seen as implying that he would do something, but it's weird.
You know, Ted Dunge is not going to kill the president.
Stop.
You know, he's doing a hunting show.
He likes playing guitar.
He's not going to kill the president.
jim florentine
And then Ted, of course, he's like, when Secret Service came, there were fans of mine.
I played a little concert with him, and I gave him my latest CD and stuff.
He's like, I was going to take him out back in the shooting range, but they didn't want to do it.
joe rogan
Have you ever seen him in the helicopters shooting pigs?
jim florentine
No.
joe rogan
You gotta see it.
You gotta see it.
It's one of the greatest things the world has ever known.
Ted Nugent in a helicopter shooting wild pigs with a machine gun.
unidentified
Just...
It's the fucking craziest thing ever.
joe rogan
They're flying around in Texas in a fucking helicopter.
Him and this dude, they call him Pig Man.
So Pig Man and Ted Nugent, and they're circling around these giant packs of pigs and just lighting them up.
It's fucked up.
Wanna see it?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Here, play it.
unidentified
Is this it?
joe rogan
This is just talking about the devastation.
There's like a whole graphic before the video that shows what these wild pigs do in Texas, because they are absolutely devastating to the farms down there.
They're out of control.
There's so many of them.
Millions of wild pigs in Texas alone.
I mean, it's a fucking infestation.
But like, as you see when you're circling over in a helicopter, you're talking about a huge It's a huge area.
I mean, Texas is goddamn enormous.
And these things are impossible to eradicate because they're smart.
So they get together and they're fucking shooting these things out of helicopters.
And it's fucking madness.
You can shoot as many as you want all day long.
You shoot them at night.
There's no rules.
You just shoot them.
I mean, it's like, look at this.
This is crazy.
brian redban
Oh, that's awful.
unidentified
It's awful.
joe rogan
Well, it wouldn't be awful if you were hungry and you wanted a pig, or if it was your farm.
brian redban
Yeah, absolutely.
joe rogan
The problem is if it's your farm, like, fuck, man, like, what is a farm, then?
You know, if they become a threat to people, that's one thing, but it is really weird that you could just, just because they cost money, like, they're chewing up people's food, but they're animals, you know, like, that's what they kind of do.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's like you have to manage them, but you have to figure out a way to manage the population, but it seems like they can't.
It seems like there's just too many of them.
They just have to kill them.
But doing it that way just seems kind of fucked.
Seems effective.
brian redban
Put them to sleep and rock them to bed or something, like make it a religious thing where we bless these pigs instead of shooting them with a machine gun out of a helicopter.
It's just, you know?
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
I don't know.
brian redban
I mean look at cats and dogs like we we put cats and dogs to sleep or we try to you know do something for them but like like animals that we need to get over that were overpopulated with you know we shouldn't be really allowed to just like I don't know torture or you know shoot with a machine gun out of a helicopter I think they're just doing it because it's one of the only ways it's effective I think on the ground you can't get to them Doing it from a helicopter is like one of the best ways to do it because they're too smart.
joe rogan
If you're on the ground and you try to get near them, they run away.
They smell things.
They hear things.
They don't see very good, but they can hear very well and they smell anything.
They just bolt.
brian redban
What about poisoning?
joe rogan
You couldn't poison them because then you poison a bunch of other shit too.
And you poison the environment and you poison the things that eat the things you poisoned.
If you poison a pig and the pig gets eaten by a mountain lion, the mountain lion gets poisoned too.
And the mountain lion could die from the same disease or the same poison.
unidentified
Thank you.
jim florentine
Then you can't have that pig meat either.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Pig meat goes bad.
They just gotta figure out a way to keep them from...
You know, that's one of the best ways.
It's fucked up, but it's one of the best ways to kill them is those helicopter things.
Because they can do it in...
They can get 100 of them, 200 of them in a day.
They got 450 in one day on that pig man show.
brian redban
Pigs are so smart, though.
It sucks.
I don't like when smart animals, you know...
joe rogan
I hear you.
brian redban
It's fucked up.
joe rogan
Yeah.
You're right.
You're right.
They're smart, but...
There's such a big difference between smart animals and smart people.
There's a giant fucking difference.
And I wonder what the variable of being wild is.
Because pigs, if you're around pigs and they're domesticated, they're sweet.
They're really sweet little animals.
They come over and they hang with you.
They're pretty cool.
But they are domesticated, so it means their experiences, none of their experience has been devastating.
They haven't seen their mother getting killed by a wild mountain lion or something like that.
They haven't seen their brother getting eaten by a bear.
You know, they're not living in the wild, just running away from shit all the time like a wild pig is.
They're constantly fed and taken care of.
So they have, like, it's sort of like people.
People, if you leave people in a wild state, even to this day, there's places in the world where people live a far scarier life than we could ever imagine.
Every day you're dealing with violence and chaos and danger.
Those people, they're going to be a wilder style of human being than we are.
And I think that's what's going on with these pigs.
It's kind of fucked that you can eat something that also, if the circumstances were better, could be your buddy.
unidentified
Yeah, right?
brian redban
Put a head on that pig and it would be awesome.
joe rogan
Yeah.
There's definitely something to that.
Because it's all about their experiences.
If they're growing up in a cage and you just...
I mean, we don't even understand their behavior.
Because the behavior that we have of pigs is...
Almost all of it is behavior of things that are locked up.
You know, the actual wild behavior of them.
They're super hard to watch.
It's hard to get close to them.
You know, try tagging them and releasing them and all that.
It's a fucking nightmare.
They're clever fuckers.
brian redban
It's almost like you could take a shitload of pigs and put it in some kind of, like, spinning, like, windmill-type things, and then we can make them Make energy for us instead or something like that.
joe rogan
Right, like give them food and a giant hamster wheel and as they go and chase after the food.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
But you have to make that food.
It takes energy to make the food that's going to give them energy.
Logically, it wouldn't make sense.
brian redban
Because it's fake food.
joe rogan
Unless you have like a super good, very efficient system where like each spin was worth like hundreds of kilowatts of...
jim florentine
Right.
brian redban
Well, the windmill is like five miles long, and it's just rows and rows of pigs.
joe rogan
Right, but how much food would you have to give those fucks?
brian redban
You don't have to give them anything.
It would be fake food.
joe rogan
No, they'd just die.
brian redban
It smelled good.
jim florentine
One dies, then you cut them up and let them eat their friend.
joe rogan
You haven't thought about this at all.
brian redban
They eat the row in front of them.
They're done by row.
Each row is like a week, so they die and the ones in front of them eat them.
unidentified
Shut the fuck up.
Just shut the fuck up.
joe rogan
You know, they say that's one of the best, like that movie Snatch, that they'd say that really is one of the best ways to get rid of a body.
Some guy who was a pig farmer in, I think it was British Columbia, who was also a serial killer, and he would throw the bodies into the pig's thigh, and the pigs would just destroy them.
Really?
Just eat everything.
They eat everything.
They shit out the teeth.
It's about it.
Everything else gets done.
They chew through the bones.
Everything.
jim florentine
Wow.
joe rogan
Yeah, they're monsters.
It's crazy.
brian redban
This girl I met recently, she collects teeth.
And all the teeth have a story.
unidentified
Run!
brian redban
I know.
unidentified
Run!
brian redban
All the teeth have a story.
Like, this is my friend Jeff's tooth.
Or this is a girl's tooth that I met on a subway or whatever.
And she says she likes to throw them in her bed and sleep with the teeth.
So when she wakes up, it looks like teeth marks are all over her body.
jim florentine
Let me open your mouth.
Let me see if you're missing any.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
And when are you guys getting married?
You move in yet?
brian redban
No.
jim florentine
You still got your wisdom teeth?
brian redban
Yeah.
No, I got rid of them.
jim florentine
Yeah, because she'd be like, I might as well get them out.
joe rogan
There's always going to be someone new out there that surprises you even more.
brian redban
I know.
unidentified
What the fuck?
joe rogan
When you think you got it all figured out.
jim florentine
Is she hot at least?
brian redban
Oh, she's super hot.
And she has all these other skulls.
She has monkey skulls, cat skulls.
Her whole house is just skulls, and then she has jars of teeth.
joe rogan
So healthy.
brian redban
Yeah.
And one of the teeth had like, it was like a fresh one, like it had some meat on it or something.
It's gross as fuck.
joe rogan
She might have paid a dude on Craigslist to pull it.
You see her two feet on his shoulders, fucking pair of pliers.
brian redban
Fucking periscope chicks are crazy.
joe rogan
He's screaming.
jim florentine
So you haven't hooked up with her?
brian redban
No, no, no, I'm not going to.
Freak me out.
joe rogan
Good for you.
So how about this fucking NAACP lady from Spokane, Washington that pretended to be black?
brian redban
This is not real life.
This is like simulation theory and somebody hacked and is playing a joke on us.
jim florentine
How did she get away with it that long?
unidentified
I don't know.
joe rogan
It's a fucking good question.
Her parents outed her, apparently.
brian redban
Did you look at her look in her eye when the reporter goes inside your desk?
You could see where everything just popped in her eye.
joe rogan
She realized, oh no, I've been found.
There's a picture of a before and after with her, and the before was when she was identifying as white.
She's transracial.
When she was identifying as white, she had freckles and blonde hair, and then all of a sudden she's got that orange-tan thing going on, and like legit black woman, permy-looking hair.
She got her hair permed.
brian redban
She looks like that waitress at the comedy store.
joe rogan
Yeah, look at that.
Look at her hair.
I mean, wow.
And she taught at a university level African studies.
jim florentine
How does no one know her from her past, besides her parents coming out and saying that?
joe rogan
Apparently, her parents had adopted a bunch of brothers and sisters that were black.
I think, was that what it was?
Four brothers and sisters that were black.
And so, somewhere along the line, she appropriated...
Like that they were her family and that she's black.
jamie vernon
Then she started calling one of them her son or something.
unidentified
Oh boy.
brian redban
Definitely hotter black though.
Yeah.
Hopefully that's a new trend.
joe rogan
She looks hot on the right, but that can't be her for real.
That's some Photoshop shit going on.
The whole thing is very, very strange.
It's really strange.
But here's what's even stranger.
Apparently, look at her hair.
Wonderful.
Apparently, out of the founding people, there was 14 founding people of the NAACP, 10 of them were white.
There was a lot of white people involved in the NAACP. And maybe this is good about what happens here.
I mean, not that this lady's crazy and she's pretending to be black, but maybe it's good that the conversation gets brought up and people realize that, like, A racial equality movement doesn't have to be all black people and wasn't all black people.
And they're like, her race doesn't have anything to do with how good she is.
They're like, she's really good at her job.
She's like really into black people.
unidentified
That's what it is.
joe rogan
That's what it is.
Nothing wrong with that.
Some people are really into French history.
Some people are, you know what I'm saying?
brian redban
She's like top wig.
Wait, what's the new word?
joe rogan
Can you still say that?
You can still say wigger.
brian redban
Okay.
unidentified
Top wig.
joe rogan
They haven't stolen it from us yet.
They haven't robbed us of wigger.
brian redban
It's so weird.
joe rogan
The whole thing is wonderful.
It's wonderful.
This lady's wonderful.
But meanwhile, apparently she was good at her job.
And the NAACP, they were actually saying...
brian redban
Wow, look at her hair there.
joe rogan
Yeah, she went full.
brian redban
She got cat yarn on her head.
joe rogan
She tried to figure it out, like a bunch of different ways of doing it.
That's when she was like, I'm going to get found.
If I keep dyeing my hair black and putting that fucking spray towel out, someone's going to call me.
Why my sheets orange?
unidentified
Hold up.
joe rogan
The whole thing is amazing.
It's amazing.
brian redban
Eyebrows on fleek.
joe rogan
She sued school.
What?
NAACP imposter sued school over race claims.
Oh my god.
She masqueraded as a black, as black, once sued Howard University for denying her teaching posts and a scholarship because she was a white woman.
The smoking gun has learned.
Whoa.
brian redban
I'm older than her.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
She graduated from the Historically Black College with a Master's of Fine Arts degree.
That's so interesting.
jim florentine
So in 2002 she sued the school.
joe rogan
That is so interesting.
And she was teaching somewhere else, right?
Was she teaching there or was she teaching somewhere else?
But she was teaching, like, African-related courses.
She's just really into Africa.
Imagine, but let's put yourself in her shoes.
I'm not saying that transracial is real, okay?
I'm not saying you should be able to just identify with a different race, but if you could, she would be a really good argument for it, right?
Okay.
She's got black people in her family that she loves dearly, right?
She maybe identifies with them.
She went to an all-black college.
She was teaching African Studies, and she was running the fucking NAACP! I mean, if anybody could be transracial, that lady was kicking ass at it.
jim florentine
Absolutely.
unidentified
Right?
joe rogan
You gotta say!
I'm fucking impressed with what she's done.
Her love of African people, of black people, has let her do an amazing job in several areas.
Right?
brian redban
I want to see what her Facebook page looks like.
jim florentine
How does a boyfriend or somebody that she dated not come out and say something?
Like, look, this chick is really...
joe rogan
They might not know.
unidentified
She's white.
jim florentine
Really?
joe rogan
You don't think so?
unidentified
They might not know.
joe rogan
No, but you know what?
jim florentine
You don't see her in the morning when she's got to put more makeup on and shit?
joe rogan
She hides from you.
unidentified
Every fucking curtain in her house is closed like Dracula.
joe rogan
She keeps all the lights off.
jim florentine
She kicks you out at night like, look, I can't sleep with anybody.
You gotta go.
I'm like, this is the greatest chick ever.
I don't have to sleep with her.
joe rogan
As soon as you leave, you hear the compressors of her tan machine.
She's fucking spraying herself with a big airbrush can like she's fucking detailing a Chevelle.
brian redban
She had to have gotten spray tanned.
joe rogan
Oh, a hundred fucking thousand percent.
brian redban
There was a spray tanner somewhere that knew her secret.
You know, that had to bring over the big umbrella thing.
joe rogan
The extra jug.
Yeah.
Well, don't they have a better way of doing that now?
How do they do that?
They still make you stand and spray it?
brian redban
To make it realistic, that's the best way.
I mean, you have the rub-on kind and stuff like that, but you can't usually get it even enough unless you really just spent all day doing it.
joe rogan
How weird are we, not we, because I haven't done it, I don't think you're doing it, that people are going and getting fucking spray tanned.
I mean, that is so insane.
You're going and you're getting dye sprayed all over your body.
brian redban
It stinks, too.
joe rogan
It's just fucking weird.
It's just weird.
jim florentine
And it wears off in like a day.
brian redban
You can get the abs sprayed on it, though.
jim florentine
You can?
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Oh, that's so retarded!
jim florentine
Do people not have time to lay in the sun anymore?
For an hour or two?
joe rogan
Maybe they live in Seattle.
There's no room.
brian redban
I just know from girls that you're like, oh, I have to have a photo shoot tomorrow, so I have to get spray tanned because I can't tan all day today.
It's a timing thing.
joe rogan
I get it, and it's also a skin cancer thing.
Some chicks don't want to get skin cancer, you know?
Standing out in the sun is not good for you, apparently.
Which is fucked.
unidentified
Because you need the sun for vitamin D. Vitamin D, you need vitamin D. The fuck?
jim florentine
I don't put sunscreen on.
I'm out.
I don't give a shit.
joe rogan
You're an animal.
Look at you.
You don't give a fuck.
jim florentine
You do it in spurts.
Little spots.
You don't go out there for eight hours at a time.
I used to landscape with no fucking shirt on.
I just did it till I can have a tan.
unidentified
That's what everybody did back then.
joe rogan
Nobody wore sunscreen when we were kids.
brian redban
We put oil on.
We did the opposite.
We got that oil.
joe rogan
We put baby oil on.
Especially in Massachusetts.
Your summer's a week long.
You've got to get it in while you can.
jim florentine
Yeah, absolutely.
I went up two notches on a scale of one to ten if I had a tan.
I went from like a four to a six.
So I had like a three-month window where I was a six.
I had to try to clean up.
joe rogan
When you're young, especially, you're fucking making moves.
You're like, do I wear the chain?
Should I wear the chain?
unidentified
Hmm...
What about cologne?
joe rogan
They like it.
You should probably try it.
jim florentine
Drakkar.
joe rogan
Yeah, I had that shit.
Drakkar Noir, right?
brian redban
And polo.
The green polo.
jim florentine
Yeah, the green polo was good.
joe rogan
I had that shit, too.
You know what's a fucking standby?
Old Spice, god damn it.
brian redban
I still use Old Spice.
It's a dad thing.
joe rogan
Old Spice aftershave.
jim florentine
Old Spice was good.
Especially if you didn't shower, you didn't have time, and just throw it on.
joe rogan
Throw a little Old Spice on.
Yeah.
jim florentine
Take that's kit, you bought them.
joe rogan
Did you hear about that fucking guy that cut some dude's throat?
He was one of those straight rager shaver dudes in a barber shop.
brian redban
Oh no.
joe rogan
He just sliced this dude's throat and ran away.
brian redban
Oh no.
joe rogan
Yeah, they caught him and apparently had a history of mental illness.
Didn't even know the guy whose throat he cut.
Just slashed this fucking guy's throat.
jim florentine
Shit.
joe rogan
Yeah, the guy lived.
The guy's gonna be okay.
Didn't do a good job of thrashing his throat.
Missed the big artery or maybe he was able to plug it up, whatever the guy did.
But fucking A, man.
That's like the number one thing that everybody's worried about with those fucking straight razors.
You know, what would happen if I just randomly got a nut and this nut decided to cut my throat?
brian redban
That's why I go to Dollar Shave Club, Joe.
joe rogan
Look at this.
Sentenced to barber Thursday to 10 years in prison for inexplicably slashing a customer's throat during a haircut and shave before peddling away on his bike.
U.S. Navy Petty Officer Timothy Vaughn, 33, was at Vicks Barbershop in Imperial Beach just south of San Diego for a haircut in October when barber Daniel Roberto Flores calmly slashed a straight razor across Vaughn's throat twice.
unidentified
Whew!
joe rogan
Whoa.
Mr. Flores waited until people left the room.
Deputy District Attorney Laura Evans said he insisted on trimming the victim's beard.
He said, I could cut your throat.
And then he did.
brian redban
Ugh.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
brian redban
I want to know what was leading up to that, though.
Was the guy being a dick?
You know, the petty officer?
Was he just, like, being a jerk the whole time?
joe rogan
He said his training as a medic kicked in.
The guy whose throat got cut and allowed him to save his own life despite severe injury and blood loss.
Sid spent hundreds of hours of physical therapy, surgery, and psychiatric treatment trying to recover.
Fucking A, man.
unidentified
Damn.
jim florentine
They didn't know each other.
There was no conflict or argument before the attack.
joe rogan
That's so crazy.
That's only ten years in jail.
How's that guy going to get fixed?
What, are they going to let him out in five if he doesn't kill anybody?
How's that going to go?
Like, anybody who does that, you need to kill that person.
You don't put him in jail for ten years.
Are you out of your mind?
jim florentine
Put him in a field in Texas and let Ted Nugent get in a helicopter and shoot at him.
joe rogan
Just shoot him to the pigs.
Take him down to where Ted Nugent is shooting those pigs.
Shoot him in the kneecaps.
Just let the pigs eat him.
Fuck you.
brian redban
I'd rather watch that.
joe rogan
Yeah, fuck you.
Fuck you.
You can't just do that.
You can't get out of jail in ten years.
That's crazy.
Ten years is not that much time.
Ten years ago was 2005. That's not enough time.
To go to jail for trying to kill someone with a straight razor?
jim florentine
And I'll probably be out in eight.
joe rogan
Fuck that.
That's ridiculous.
brian redban
Did you watch Jeff Ross's roast of the criminals?
joe rogan
No, I did not.
I heard it was awesome.
brian redban
It's pretty good.
jim florentine
I haven't seen it.
I heard it was great, though.
joe rogan
I love the fact that he did it.
I want to talk to him about it, because he wrote a really good thing for the Huffington Post the other day about the system, about the penal system.
Understanding it once you get inside of it and see how fucked up and nightmarish it is.
brian redban
The girls were pretty hot in there.
joe rogan
Really?
brian redban
Yeah, there was a few really hot ones.
joe rogan
No shit.
brian redban
Yeah, it was kind of weird.
joe rogan
I would imagine there's a lot of crazy bitches that are hot and fuck up and do something stupid and wind up getting locked up.
Makes sense.
Why would you think that girls in prison wouldn't be hot?
brian redban
I know.
Because, I mean, how many crazy girls have I dated that were one step away from being in jail?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
You could have gotten a few of them arrested if you were really into it.
jim florentine
I have one that just got a friend that just got out after nine months, like a nine and a half on a scale of one to ten.
joe rogan
Ka-pow, motherfucker!
brian redban
Hot, though?
jim florentine
Yeah.
brian redban
Oh, that's...
All right.
joe rogan
Yeah, you get them to the point where they're ready to kill you.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
And then somehow or another you escape with your life.
brian redban
Sucks.
joe rogan
But if there was a fucking camera on the wall...
brian redban
Oh, there's drop cams everywhere nowadays, Joe.
Oh, I got that shit secured.
joe rogan
Goddamn, dude.
I don't know what you're doing.
Everybody gets mad at you.
brian redban
Not doing enough, I guess.
joe rogan
Whatever it is.
brian redban
Do you usually have crazy girls in your life, Jim?
jim florentine
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
He's a comic.
brian redban
Yeah.
Mostly?
jim florentine
My whole life.
brian redban
Your whole life.
jim florentine
Pretty much, yeah.
brian redban
Was there one that was most crazy?
Like, was there a good story to it?
jim florentine
A million of them.
I'm trying to think.
But yeah, you're always attracted to them.
Yeah.
I always wanted the crazy one after the show that was dancing on top of the bar, whipping her tits out.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's the one that's going to be fun.
jim florentine
Yeah.
unidentified
Woo-hoo!
joe rogan
But depending upon how crazy the personality is.
brian redban
I met a gypsy the other day.
And remember we talked about gypsies recently?
joe rogan
I think we were singing this Cher song.
brian redban
Yeah.
But she's a gypsy and she doesn't have a house.
joe rogan
She doesn't have a house.
What does that mean?
brian redban
She just goes from one millionaire's house to another millionaire's house.
joe rogan
She's a millionaire gypsy girl?
brian redban
Yeah.
unidentified
Wow.
brian redban
She just hangs out.
She's like, yeah, I just hang out by pools and stuff.
joe rogan
There are girls that are like that.
There's guys, I know a guy who's like that.
He's always like, he's an older gentleman and he's got quite a bit of money.
He's in his 60s.
He's never been married and he'll invite like really hot chicks to stay at his place.
And they live with him, all the time.
Like, he's always got some new nutty ten that's living with him.
And I'm like, are you fucking here?
He's like, well, I'm trying.
I'm like, Jesus Christ.
But he would bring them in.
And that was the thing.
He would buy them stuff, get them cars, and they could live with him.
He was really mismatched, because he's not a good-looking fellow.
So he would bring them in, and they would live with him, and he tried super-duper hard to get it.
Sometimes you'd get it, but oftentimes it'd just be a disaster.
He couldn't get laid, and he's paying for everything, and they're living with him.
brian redban
I would do it.
I would have a new guy rule, but I wouldn't buy them cars and stuff, but they can just crash there.
joe rogan
No guy ruler.
You can't bring guys over.
brian redban
No guys.
jim florentine
Yeah.
It sounds like a sugar daddy thing.
I had this stripper I used to date.
She had a sugar daddy and she would just buy her all the shit, which is great because I didn't have to buy it.
And then I got to the point where I go, you know what?
Maybe he should start getting me some shit because I'm letting her go out.
He's trying to fuck her, obviously.
So now I'm like, well, I remember it was a VCR. I'm like, well, get me a VCR because I don't want to put up with this shit.
And then she'd come home with a VCR. It's like, I need a VCR. I'm like, beautiful.
I actually went on a date with them in a limo and pretended I was the guy friend and bad mouth myself for an hour in front of this guy.
You know that boyfriend of hers?
I go, yeah, he's a real dick.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
jim florentine
And we went to a mall and I picked out like 20 CDs he bought me.
And I think he bought me like a, I forget, it was like a Walkman at the time or something like that.
I'm like, yeah, I'll take one.
And I'm like, sure, you seem a good dude.
Just fucking bad.
And the guy's holding her hand in the limo and I'm just sitting there like the friend.
I'm like, I don't give a shit.
I'm getting CDs.
joe rogan
Oh, that's hilarious.
That's a strong pimp move.
jim florentine
I tried to get a TV, but he wasn't going for it.
joe rogan
See, a lot of these guys that rock it like this, the reason why they have to is because of prostitution laws.
If prostitution was legal, there's a lot of these older creepazoid dudes that are just out there trying to make it happen.
It's just tough action, you know, unless you're paying for it.
Very tough to get someone to love you for who you are, like if you have these really high standards and you're gross.
But if you've got a ton of cash and prostitution's legal, If they just made prostitution legal in America, you'd have exactly the same amount of hoes.
Okay?
Exactly the same.
Listen to me.
More people are not going to be hoes.
Hoes are hoes already.
They're doing it in weird ways.
And maybe it'd be better if prostitution was legal so you found out exactly who the hoes are.
brian redban
Safer?
Tax it?
joe rogan
Exactly.
Tax it.
brian redban
Apple Pay?
joe rogan
Exactly.
Amazon OneClick?
jim florentine
Right.
joe rogan
There's nothing wrong with it.
It's just sex.
Is it okay to get a massage?
Yes.
It's okay to pay someone to suck your dick.
It just is.
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
It should be.
You know?
And these guys shouldn't have to move these fucking girls in.
Buy them cars.
It's rude.
jim florentine
Buy the guy friends VCRs.
They shouldn't have to do that.
I felt bad.
Poor bastard.
I'm figuring he's trying to bang my chick.
joe rogan
Right.
jim florentine
So at least I should get some gifts out of it.
joe rogan
Now, how did you wind up ending this whole relationship?
jim florentine
You know, it was a stripper, so it was just...
joe rogan
I mean, with him.
jim florentine
I... No, they just...
joe rogan
How'd you just get him out of your life?
It seems like you would want some return for his investment.
jim florentine
No, because he was doing it...
He was juggling, like, three different ones, and he just never...
I think he was fucking one, but he wanted to fuck all three.
joe rogan
Of course.
jim florentine
And my chick had boundaries.
Well, she said, when I wasn't around, she said she was...
No way, I'm not going to sleep with him, but...
unidentified
That's hilarious.
jim florentine
He bought her tits, too.
She wanted me to buy her tits for like four grand.
I'm like, I'm not buying you tits.
joe rogan
And he bought her tits?
jim florentine
Yeah, he bought her tits, yeah.
Holy shit.
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
Did you guys go to dinner with this guy?
jim florentine
Just, yeah, we went to dinner just that night.
I only met him that one time.
joe rogan
Oh, okay.
jim florentine
I'd be at the bar, though, because, you know, the sugar daddy always comes in the strip club and sits there.
And all the girls come around.
I was right across the bar, just sitting there, just watching this guy.
I'm like, I'm fucking that tonight.
Keep giving her money.
unidentified
Oh, that's so weird.
jim florentine
She's taking me to dinner later with that money.
unidentified
That's so crazy.
joe rogan
You're that guy.
People always talk about strippers' crazy boyfriends.
That's you.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
You're the quintessential one.
jim florentine
And I was cutting lawns at the time.
I was making like eight bucks an hour, and this guy's probably making like 300 grand a year.
joe rogan
So that's pimping.
You're technically pimping.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
In a way.
I mean, not full-on pimping, but that's pretty pimpish.
Respect.
jim florentine
I really needed a VCR. Yeah.
I did.
I just...
joe rogan
I respect that hustle.
brian redban
I've done the same stuff.
I've added things to, when I dated Veronica Ricci, I added things to her Amazon wishlist like Xbox games and stuff.
joe rogan
This is a new world.
This is a world of Amazon wishlists where girls can say, I want you to buy me stuff.
Like, they have a list where you go and you just buy their shit.
Go buy them shit.
And they go, oh my god, thank you so much.
jim florentine
Really?
joe rogan
Thank you so much, Jim Florentine.
This jacket is amazing.
It's everything I wanted.
unidentified
It's just so nice to have fans like you.
joe rogan
You're the best fans in the world.
Thank you.
brian redban
Kim Congdon just got an Xbox One.
Somebody bought her an Xbox One the other day.
joe rogan
She has a wishlist?
Is she the only comic with a wishlist?
brian redban
No, no, no.
joe rogan
Who's got a wishlist?
brian redban
I tell everyone.
Lil' Esther has one.
joe rogan
Do you have one?
brian redban
No, I have a Death Squad one that had, like, I used to have one, but the Death Squad Studio one, which was like, oh, I need this mic stand and stuff like that.
joe rogan
And people would buy it?
brian redban
Yeah, it was cool.
joe rogan
Wow.
brian redban
But little Esther would have one, and I would have access to her wishlist when I dated her.
So I'd add all these black dildos and stuff to it.
And she would go on the podcast, and she'd be like, guys, I have an Amazon wishlist.
Please give me something.
And she didn't know I added all this shit to it.
So she was just getting sent vibrators and anal beads.
And she's like, what's going on?
joe rogan
Did she get upset, or was she happy in the long run?
brian redban
She used them all, I'm sure.
jim florentine
Beautiful.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
jim florentine
So guy comics do this, too, to have a wish list?
joe rogan
No, I've never heard of a guy comic with a wish list.
brian redban
Guys have wish lists.
Who?
joe rogan
Comic?
brian redban
Yeah, you can look up anybody who has a wish list, really, nowadays.
joe rogan
Dude, guy comics that have a wish list, name one.
brian redban
Wow.
joe rogan
That's what we're talking about.
unidentified
Tom Segura.
joe rogan
Are you too high to have a conversation right now?
brian redban
Tom Segura.
joe rogan
Does he?
brian redban
I'm sure he does.
joe rogan
Does he?
Come on.
brian redban
I'll find one for you.
joe rogan
Yeah, find if it's Tom Segura.
I highly doubt it.
unidentified
I highly doubt it.
brian redban
I bet Bert Kreischer has one, too.
joe rogan
No.
I don't think any of them have wishlists.
Wishlists where they want you to buy them shit?
unidentified
Maybe.
That's weird.
jim florentine
Like a struggling comic that has got no money.
He's like, hey, if I can get some...
Not really?
Whatever, if I need something, maybe, but someone that's established.
There's no reason for that.
joe rogan
I can't even see a struggling comic doing it.
Like, what would you want someone to buy you?
What are you doing?
jim florentine
Tires for your car.
joe rogan
The relationship the girl has when she puts up with those Amazon wishlist things.
The relationship is like, look, this is a box where you can mail me shit.
All you have to do is just go through the electronic things right here, press this, click that, and I'll get some shit.
Some money will be missing, but you're not going to notice that.
What you are going to notice is the fact that I'm going to go...
Oh my god, thank you.
These are exactly the shoes that I wanted, and I was saving up for them, so it meant so much to me.
That's all they need.
jim florentine
Yeah, absolutely.
joe rogan
Thank you, Jim Florentine.
I have them on now.
Yeah, they do a lot of that, right?
brian redban
Yeah, Tom Segura has one.
joe rogan
He has a wish list?
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Where he's asking people to buy him shit?
Please read the list.
brian redban
I am shocked!
unidentified
He's got Last Man Standing on DVD. I'm asking him right now.
brian redban
He's got Red State, Grass.
He's got a bunch of movies.
A Survival's Tale.
jim florentine
Wait, this is what he wants from people?
brian redban
I think so.
I mean, it's just his wish list.
A lot of people have wish lists, but I don't think they pimp them out.
Like, hey, here's my wish list.
Buy me something.
It's more of like things that they want to get eventually, I think, you know?
joe rogan
I'm asking him, do you have an Amazon wishlist?
If so, lose my number.
brian redban
Yeah, actually, he has a few of them, it looks like.
joe rogan
He has a few of them?
brian redban
Yeah, let me see if Joey Diaz has one.
joe rogan
Joey Diaz does not have a wish list.
brian redban
I bet he does.
joe rogan
It's all shit his wife wants.
That wish list thing is very strange.
What's going to be way stranger is that within two or three decades, we're not even going to have to go to the store to buy shit.
Everything will be sent to you through the internet or it's going to be 3D printed.
That's going to be the vast majority.
jim florentine
You think so?
joe rogan
Fuck yeah.
I mean, as long as it makes sense, like size-wise, like you couldn't 3D print a table this big in the machines that most people are going to have in their houses.
But I really believe that there's going to be a time in our lives where people are going to be making most of the stuff that they are going to download instructions and have a fucking printer in their house that prints it.
Just like it prints an image, they're going to be able to do that with actual three-dimensional things, like with high certainty.
brian redban
Did you see that new printer where it's like a liquid-based printer where it prints different?
It's a different kind of 3D printer technology that they just made where it actually comes from the bottom, and they use like an air, so it pulls the item out of a liquid.
It's badass.
joe rogan
Yeah, there's a few different methods they use, different ways of heating the little particles, those little pellets that they use to fill.
It's a bunch of different methods of doing it.
But apparently they're saying that, like, what we're seeing is the infancy.
This is like the Model Ts of these fucking things.
Just like old printers.
You remember those printers?
It was super slow and shitty and it was blocky.
It never really looked like you would get dark at the top and the bottom would be light.
They were dog shit.
brian redban
Dot matrix printer.
joe rogan
Now you can get these fucking printers that print photographs on photograph quality paper and it looks like an HD photo.
You're like, holy shit.
I'm looking at a really nice photograph.
You can print it off of a home computer printer.
It's fucking nuts.
Well, they're gonna have that with this 3D shit.
They're gonna have 3D objects, and you're gonna just need the raw materials.
You're gonna have like a jug of aluminum and, you know, a big fucking thing of all the different minerals that you're gonna need to create these things.
And then the computer is gonna figure out where to put everything.
It's gonna be nuts.
It's gonna be really weird.
Real weird.
Then they're going to be able to do it with biology.
That's when shit's going to get real weird.
If technology continues where they can manipulate biology, and they're pretty close to being able to do that now.
They're doing weird different things.
They're splicing different genes and shutting off different genes.
If they do that, and then that becomes so commonplace that it starts getting its hand somehow or another in the public.
The public gets a hand on it.
And the public can manipulate their own DNA. Like, you can have your own, build a pet.
Like, you have a machine where you can build a pet.
People are gonna make, like, half polar bear, half fuckin' hawk things.
I mean, just imagine how fuckin' bizarre, once people can actually manipulate life and create, like, their own versions of animals and shit, which is gonna be chaos.
brian redban
Yeah, you just choose the perfect puppy.
Like, I want a Shih Tzu, but I want to have that black on the back and a white in the front, and it just prints it out, and it comes to life immediately.
joe rogan
And if some asshole uses it wrong, can you imagine if you're hanging out in your house and the next door neighbor's house explodes with baboons.
These baboons are running out of his house.
Like this fucking asshole in his printer.
He's making these fucking baboons.
Full grown baboons.
He prints them out.
And they just come tumbling out of some chamber that he's got in his basement.
That's not a...
I mean, they're going to be able to do some weird shit in a thousand years.
Think about a thousand years ago, the best shit you had was a horse.
That's the best thing.
That wagon behind the horse, I mean, that's okay if you had some shit you had to pull around.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
But the horse was the way you got around.
The idea that you could fly a plane, like if you could go back to the 1200s and tell them about air travel, how easy it is to get to Paris, how easy it is, like in a day, you could be in China.
They'd be like, what the fuck are you even talking about, man?
But yeah, you're getting a tube and it flies through the air.
Shut the fuck up.
Just stop.
That's what it's going to be like for us.
A thousand years from now, what they're going to be able to do with bodies and with electronics and what they're going to be able to do with technology, it's going to make...
We're living in the cave era.
We're living in some bizarre, like, static world that we can't manipulate.
And that's going to seem ridiculous to people in the future.
jim florentine
Will they be able to cure cancer?
joe rogan
There's not going to be any diseases.
jim florentine
There won't be any?
joe rogan
No.
jim florentine
So people will live to whatever age?
joe rogan
I can't imagine.
I think there's going to come a point in time, if you just follow the curve, right?
Go back from how quickly people died of illnesses a thousand years ago.
How most illnesses that came along that were pretty severe, they'd have a big impact.
Like, you could easily lose 20% of the population of your city in some sort of a plague.
And they had a bunch of those.
A bunch of plagues.
They had plagues that wiped out 60-70% of the population.
And they had just insane plagues.
That doesn't really happen anymore, okay?
So just think about all the different medications that scientists have come up with, all the different treatments for diseases that medical biology is constantly evolving and getting better at, figuring out a way to detect things early, and this would be a safer time to be, like, a person who needs medical assistance now than ever before, ever, in human history, by far!
There's not even a remote comparison, right?
Well, if that keeps going, Where's it going?
It's getting better.
They're getting better at fixing bodies.
They're getting better at fixing bodies and eventually there's going to be genetic manipulation.
When those two things combine, it's like the only thing that's going to kill you is trauma.
The only thing that's going to kill people is like accidents and things that they can't fix.
That's what's going to kill people.
jim florentine
What about heart attacks?
joe rogan
They're going to get to a point where they can fix all that shit.
They're going to be able to reintroduce different genes into your body.
So they'll be able to introduce different genes to your heart that make your heart work different.
They have this fucking shit that they're working on that's spider silk.
It's an artificial human skin that's a hybrid with spider silk.
It's going to be bulletproof.
They're going to have bulletproof human skin if this works.
jim florentine
Holy shit!
joe rogan
Exactly!
Like, what they're gonna be able to do a thousand years from now is outside of the realm of anyone's imagination.
The history that we study today, when you study Alexander the Great, when you study Genghis Khan, if you had to go back in time that far...
The way they lived, you would still kind of understand it.
We understand the way they lived.
We understand that they rode around on horseback, they got their water from the river, they had to hunt for their food, they had no refrigeration, there's constant war and struggle.
We understand that.
They still seem like people.
But what they're going to be a thousand years from now is going to be nuts.
It's going to be fucking bananas.
Everyone's going to be 20 years old.
There's going to be no disease.
And we're going to be freaks.
They're going to be able to manipulate your genes.
You could be like a half eagle person.
You could run around with feathers growing off your dick.
That's not outside the realm of possibility.
Things are going to get real.
If you have today, like, people, you're allowed to go, I mean, and you should be, you're allowed to go to any one of those body modification places and they put fucking plates in your forehead and stretch your ears out and cut your lips off or whatever nutty shit you want to do.
Why not?
Let them do it.
Who cares?
But if you want to be like a half-ego person, Ooh, what?
You're gonna grow talons?
You're gonna be half eagle person.
Like, we don't even know.
Should you be able to live in a city now?
That's gonna happen.
Half eagle people are gonna be a reality.
jim florentine
So what happens to all the pharmaceutical companies with no more sickness and all that other stuff?
It's 20% of our...
brian redban
Oh, Jesus.
joe rogan
Oh my God.
The lip window.
Whoa, that's rough.
Holy shit.
Oh my God, is that real?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Oh my god, that guy's got a hole in the side of his face, like a second mouth, and he sticks his tongue through it.
unidentified
Oh my god, that's crazy.
joe rogan
Oh, Jesus Christ.
brian redban
How did they drink Kool-Aid?
It just comes out their mouth?
joe rogan
I guess they have to use a straw.
They must have to drink everything with a straw.
Imagine watching that dummy eat.
brian redban
Blowjob squirts right back at you.
joe rogan
What is that one in the group down there with that guy?
What is going on with him?
unidentified
Oh my Jesus Christ!
joe rogan
Holy shit.
What is he doing?
Look at this nose.
He has these giant holes.
His nostrils, he's had holes not in the bottom where the nostril hole is, but on the sides.
Holes created and then stretched way out to the size of a quarter.
So you can see right into his nasal cavity.
Then he's got those enormous ear stretchy things, which I've gotten pretty used to.
They're so normal now.
And then he's got tattoos all over his face and the side of his head and his eyebrows.
jim florentine
Jesus.
joe rogan
Fuck, dude.
What happened?
jim florentine
I know.
joe rogan
Who did you wrong, son?
Somebody.
brian redban
Remember simpler times where you just had it on the left side, you weren't gay.
The right side, you were gay.
That's all it was.
joe rogan
Did anyone that you knew when you were growing up have a facial piercing?
brian redban
Never.
jim florentine
No.
joe rogan
No, right?
I can't think of anybody.
brian redban
No, we had hoops or not hoops.
joe rogan
But I mean, did you meet anyone that even had a nose ring?
When did you meet someone with a nose ring?
brian redban
Nose ring was college, about 93. Yeah, that's when I saw a chick start.
jim florentine
And then guys too, yeah.
joe rogan
I'm trying to figure it out.
When I saw my first nose ring...
brian redban
Joe, didn't you have your belly button pierced?
joe rogan
No, it was my dick.
I was going to have it connected to my belly button with like a chain, like a wallet chain.
jim florentine
Did you have an earring?
joe rogan
I had two in my left ear.
jim florentine
Yeah, I had two in the left, yeah.
You couldn't put it in the right.
joe rogan
I had a fake diamond that I would wear and a gold hoop.
brian redban
Yep, a gold hoop.
joe rogan
It's just pictures of it.
brian redban
Joe, I saw you on Ariane's Instagram wearing the extensions.
That was so hilarious.
joe rogan
Yeah, I put some of my hair on.
brian redban
That was funny as fuck.
joe rogan
I think that was actually Megan O'Leavy, the broadcaster, interviewer.
Yeah, I think it was her hair.
I don't know whose hair it was.
One of those chicks.
brian redban
That's so funny.
jim florentine
You needed the earrings, though.
It helped with getting the chicks.
brian redban
Yeah.
jim florentine
I had long hair, so it was always covered.
My dad didn't like it, so I'd take them out when I wasn't around.
But he couldn't see it anyway, because my hair was really long.
joe rogan
You need some peacock feathers, man.
jim florentine
But Bon Scott from ACDC had an earring in each ear, so you're like, wait a minute.
brian redban
Me too.
jim florentine
So some guys would go with both.
Like, hey, I'm not, you know, because if it was in the right ear, that meant you were gay.
But if you had them both, he's like, well, Bon Scott had them in both, so I could have them in both.
joe rogan
That's a bold move.
jim florentine
I know, it was.
joe rogan
The both.
Eddie Bravo used to do it.
brian redban
I do both also.
I could still do it in both.
They're both still, they haven't grown together yet.
joe rogan
How dare you?
brian redban
It's so weird.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's a weird thing.
unidentified
What you're allowed, but it's weird, what you're allowed to and not allowed to.
joe rogan
Like, I'm not allowed, me personally, I'm not allowed to hang out with anybody that has eyebrow piercings.
If you're a dude and you have eyebrow piercings, I look at my rules and I go, oh look, I'm so sorry, but I have rules.
I don't hang out with any dudes who have eyebrow piercings.
I gotta go.
jim florentine
I like that rule.
That's fair enough.
joe rogan
But it's different.
Like Cara Santa Maria, who is our friend, is awesome.
She's got a lip ring.
And normally I look at people with lip rings and I'm like, what is that dumb shit about?
Why you got metal coming out of your face?
But she can pull it off.
Like it just depends on the individual.
It doesn't even, I don't even notice that she has a lip ring.
It just seems like a part of her.
She's so smart and interesting to talk to.
It doesn't really kind of affect how you think of her.
But a lot of people, like you meet a girl with a lip ring, like, listen, crazy.
What's going on with your face?
unidentified
Huh?
joe rogan
What do you got there?
Three-ring binder coming out of your fucking lip?
brian redban
I don't like the pussy pierce, because I feel like I'm going to tear it or rip it or something, and it just...
I don't like it.
joe rogan
That's a strong statement, too, when a girl gets her pussy pierce.
jim florentine
Yeah, I've had a couple.
It doesn't really do anything.
I know.
It's...
unidentified
Woo!
joe rogan
What are you doing down there?
Why are you adding hardware?
jim florentine
There's one chick at a little barbell.
joe rogan
Ooh!
Was she lifting weights with her pussy?
Well, some girls will do Kegels, you know?
I mean, that's essentially like doing some Bruce Lee dynamic tension exercises for your pussy.
brian redban
She could masturbate by just tying a kite to it.
joe rogan
You know how Bruce Lee used to do that?
Bruce Lee used to fucking...
He used to do these exercises where he just tensed up.
Girls do that with their pussy.
jim florentine
It works, too.
joe rogan
Well, there's a woman in Russia that can carry weight.
She has the world record for the amount of weight that she can carry with her pussy.
Like, she shoves something up her pussy, clamps down on it, and she can lift weights.
Like, I'm talking, like, fucking heavy weight, like 50, 60 pounds for her pussy.
Yeah, it's like a vice grip in there.
This is a Russian woman.
jim florentine
I wouldn't want my cock in there.
joe rogan
Yes, you probably wouldn't.
First of all, you wouldn't because you wouldn't want to put your cock in the pussy of a woman who's been practicing something like this.
Like, what is wrong with her?
She's not just practicing it.
She's entering contests.
It's not like she's at home in the privacy of her own home.
She's got some stuff stuck in her pussy and she's dangling.
brian redban
It's like a noodle or something.
joe rogan
So she's got it in between her legs.
Okay.
So she holds the world record for the amount of weight that she can carry.
I don't know if it's her.
Is this her?
It's all in Russia.
Oh, so now she's got an actual physical weight that she's hanging from her pussy.
This is insane.
Look at this.
She's picking up this heavy weight with her pussy.
Oh my god.
brian redban
Ain't nobody got time for this.
joe rogan
She's just letting you know that she will fuck the life out of you.
jim florentine
Yeah, don't come near me.
joe rogan
She's letting you know.
If she gets a hold of you with that super pussy, she's gonna lock onto you and you're gonna have to use 50-60 pounds of force just to get away from her.
That's a fucking statement.
jim florentine
That's one you just try for anal first.
joe rogan
Go right to the ass?
jim florentine
Yeah, just go right to the ass.
I like this better and then we'll get to the pussy.
joe rogan
Could you imagine what kind of ass power she has?
Everyone has ass power.
People are used to clenching in shits, holding in farts.
You know, that's a common thing.
But I don't know, how common is it for girls to actually work on tightening their pussy?
brian redban
Have you had a girl ever squeeze her asshole muscle while you're in her asshole before?
joe rogan
No.
brian redban
It's cool.
jim florentine
No, I never did either.
brian redban
Try it.
jim florentine
They were just mad I was in there.
They were clenching their fists.
brian redban
It's weird.
joe rogan
I'm sure.
unidentified
She's trying to shit you out.
brian redban
She's trying to cut my dick turn.
joe rogan
It's an analogy for your whole life.
brian redban
I went through this part where this girl, I dated for a long period of time, was mad at me.
So for a month, she wouldn't let me have vagina sex.
I could only have butt sex.
And you think that sounds awesome, but after the third day, it's just awful.
But that was one thing that she would do all the time.
joe rogan
That was her punishment?
brian redban
Yeah, it was a horrible punishment.
You think that's a great punishment?
That's a horrible punishment.
jim florentine
Why was it horrible?
brian redban
Because you don't want to have sex more than three times.
You're like, alright, I'm done.
I don't want this anymore.
joe rogan
So she was, like, trying to play some sort of psychological game?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Like, just give you the ass, and then you will never ask for the ass again?
brian redban
Right.
unidentified
Hmm.
joe rogan
That's the kind of girls that date Brian.
jim florentine
Did it work?
joe rogan
That's how they think.
jim florentine
Did it work?
brian redban
Yeah, I don't like it anymore, man.
It was horrible.
And then she'd do that squeezy thing.
She'd do that squeezy thing.
And it just feels like there's, like, something else in there.
It's just too tight.
It's too sharp corners.
It's like the Samsung Edge.
joe rogan
How many girls do you think actually, like, work on that?
Do those Kegels?
Is that a common thing?
brian redban
Yeah.
Especially yoga girls.
Definitely.
joe rogan
Yoga girls?
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Because they're just tightening their pussy all the time in yoga?
brian redban
And there's like exercises you could do when you're just sitting.
You could also use those balls and stuff like that.
joe rogan
But dudes can do that too, right?
That's those for Kama Sutra.
You know, the different strategies of...
What's that type of...
What is that type of...
jim florentine
Tantric.
joe rogan
Tantric, thank you.
Where you're supposed to hold in your cum.
You're not supposed to have orgasms.
brian redban
I edge all the time, yeah.
You ever edge?
joe rogan
You're supposed to like...
Hold.
unidentified
Hold.
joe rogan
You're supposed to keep it inside of you.
And if you can hold it tight enough, apparently you internally orgasm.
Internally.
I don't know what that means.
I guess you have the same feeling, but it's more intense, but you don't come.
So you're probably also an idiot by the time the third week rolls around.
jim florentine
Right.
joe rogan
All you're thinking about is how fucking horny you are everywhere you go.
Like, Jesus Christ!
Because you haven't come in three or four weeks.
It's a terrible idea.
That's what people used to do when they didn't have cable.
You know, they'd practice different ways to hold in their cum just to make life more interesting.
Just hurry up and cum and watch Game of Thrones.
Just get in there.
jim florentine
I'd rather let it just slide out for a second and go, oh, sorry, you know.
Give me a second.
I think I heard someone's at the door, so I could regroup.
I'm not gonna hold it in.
joe rogan
Clench down.
That muscle's so weak.
Even if you lift weights.
Like, you could have, like, the best grip.
You give a guy a fucking manly handshake.
How are you, bud?
Nice to meet you.
You'd be a stud.
But that muscle that controls your dick, every guy's got this weak, just fucking lazy.
It gets tired and fatigued easy.
Like, you can clamp your jaw shut for a fucking hour.
You can fucking...
You clamp your dick.
Try to squeeze down your dick for 20 seconds.
You're ready to black out.
It's just such a weak muscle.
Like, right now, try to squeeze your dick whole muscle.
Can't keep doing it!
I have no endurance on my dick-squeezed muscle.
I wonder if you practice it, would it really get to a point where you could be like the male equivalent to that lady that carries bricks in her pussy?
What is this?
How can men do Kegel exercises?
Why would they do that?
Halfway through urination, try to stop or slow the flow of urine.
brian redban
I can do that.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
That's possible, but it's not fun.
Don't tense the muscles in your buttocks, leg, or abdomen, and don't hold your breath.
When you can slow or stop the flow of urine, you've successfully located these muscles.
Okay, so don't tense the muscles in your buttocks, legs, or abdomen, and don't hold your breath.
Okay, so you have to figure out how to stop the pee from the middle.
Instead of squeezing your butt, like if you had to stop peeing in the middle of peeing, you would clamp your butt shut, you would squeeze down your dick, and you would try to stop the stream.
What they're saying is, don't tense the muscles in your butt, your legs, or your abdomen, and don't hold your breath.
That you could actually just develop a squeeze that could stop pee from coming out without moving anything else but your dick muscles.
I can't believe we're talking about this.
brian redban
Can you flick your dick up and hit your belly?
Like when it's hard, can you like flick it?
joe rogan
Are we going to ask...
Really ridiculous questions that are stupid as fuck now.
brian redban
But can you do that?
Can you move your dick?
joe rogan
Who knows, Brian?
No one's sitting around moving their dick.
You need hobbies.
jim florentine
Without your hands?
brian redban
Yeah, just flick it up.
unidentified
What?
brian redban
You can't do it.
Yeah.
jim florentine
Nah, my balls weigh mine down, so it's not going to go up.
brian redban
Yeah, I can flick it.
I could just sit there and just be like, if it's hard, I could just flick my stomach.
joe rogan
Everybody can do that, dude.
brian redban
He just said he can't.
jim florentine
He doesn't know what you're talking about.
joe rogan
He doesn't know what you're talking about.
It's so ridiculous.
He's like, I can whistle.
Remember when you're five and your friend first learned how to whistle?
I can whistle.
Can you whistle?
Everybody can fucking whistle.
Alright, dude?
brian redban
Yeah, I could smack my belly down.
joe rogan
Every guy who has a hard-on can do that.
If your dick gets hard, you tense it up, it hits your stomach.
That's how it's designed.
You're like, my mouth shuts when I want to.
If I want to close my mouth, I just do this and I close it.
But you didn't even know how to do that.
brian redban
Can you flip a grape in your mouth?
unidentified
What?
brian redban
You, like, flip it.
joe rogan
You put a grape on the head of your dick.
brian redban
And then flip it up.
joe rogan
You do that.
brian redban
I can do that.
joe rogan
You've never done that.
brian redban
I've done that.
Definitely done that.
joe rogan
You've done that.
You put a grape on your dick and flipped it in your mouth.
I don't believe you.
brian redban
No, I didn't get it in my mouth.
I said try to flip it in your mouth.
jim florentine
How far does it go up?
joe rogan
First of all, I don't believe that at all, because I believe that if you did start it and you got close to your mouth, you would keep flipping it into your face until you caught it in your mouth.
brian redban
Are you just disagreeing with me so I'll show you?
No, Joe, I can do it.
unidentified
Why?
jim florentine
Can you put it on your helmet and flip it up?
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Did you get brain damage this weekend or something?
brian redban
Totally.
It's not smoking.
joe rogan
For real?
Is there something wrong with you?
You seem like there's really something wrong with you today.
brian redban
Really?
Are you serious?
joe rogan
Your sentences are so ridiculous.
brian redban
Dude, it's because I'm very not smoking cigarettes.
I slipped with a patch and I forgot to take off.
joe rogan
Yeah, you can't leave those on.
They kill you.
Those things give you heart attacks.
Throw that out, though.
Don't leave that on my table, you creep.
brian redban
Is that real why that you can't sleep with it?
joe rogan
Yeah, you're not supposed to sleep with them.
brian redban
It's intense.
joe rogan
Isn't that true?
I'm pretty sure.
I'm pretty sure you're supposed to take those off.
There's like a bunch of different rules to those things.
You can't have too many of them.
People have put like four or five of them on and died.
You gotta be fucking careful.
Those patches, especially, they vary in strength.
You're supposed to wean yourself off to a lighter and lighter patch.
brian redban
This is the lightest one.
joe rogan
It just seems fucked up to me.
The Nicorette gum makes the most sense.
brian redban
It's the grossest.
You taste nicotine.
It makes me puke.
I'll literally puke if I have the nicotine gum or the mints.
It has this weird nicotine I like Marc Maron's strategy.
joe rogan
He just keeps chewing the nicotine gum.
He's been on the nicotine gum for like 10 years.
jim florentine
His boss is the same way, Rich Voss.
Yeah, he's been Nicorette gum for years.
brian redban
I think Maron's actually done with the gum now.
unidentified
Is he?
brian redban
I think he's completely free of it.
joe rogan
Good for him.
That's a hard fucking monkey to kick.
That cigarette monkey seems like, to me, out of all the things that I've seen people kick, cigarettes seems to be the toughest.
That's not the toughest, the consequences of going back on it, because if you see a guy, he's got a heroin problem, and he kicks it, and then he goes back on heroin, he's all fucked up, his life's a mess.
But if you see a guy who kicks cigarettes and comes back, he's just smoking a cigarette, you know?
He's like, ah, I quit for a little while, I couldn't fuck, but he's still right there talking to you, you know what I'm saying?
It's not like someone who quits something, something like meth or something fucking crazy that ruins your life.
Really quick.
Cigarettes is a nice slow burn.
But if you take that out of it, and you look at it objectively, like how many people do you know that were former drug addicts?
unidentified
A lot.
joe rogan
I know a lot.
A lot of dudes who had problems with drugs.
How many dudes do I know that had a problem with cigarettes?
And did successfully kick it.
Not that many.
Only a few.
I know a lot of people that struggle with that shit.
Hardcore.
You struggle with it hardcore.
Ari still says he gets cravings for it.
He kicked it a long fucking time ago.
Duncan still gets cravings.
He'll still have a cigarette every now and again.
Joey will allow himself a cigarette every now and again, which I think is super fucking dangerous.
brian redban
Joey actually, doesn't he always smoke those e-cigarette things all the time?
joe rogan
Sometimes he does, but you remember back in the day he would allow himself a cigarette every now and then?
Fuck it.
Whatever.
I'm gonna have a cigarette.
He's just sitting there smoking a cigarette.
But he had enough willpower to not go buy a pack and not keep going.
But, um, that seems to be, like, as hard a kick as anything.
Because it seems to be, like, when people are, like, the heroin thing, and, like, people have, like, severe pill problems, like, they look at those pill problems like, fuck, I hope those things don't get me again.
You know, if they get off of them, they look at them like, fuck, like, that's, these fucking pills, man.
People don't look at cigarettes that way.
They look at it, it's a much more casual thing, because it kills you so slowly.
brian redban
Cigarettes though has killed coffee for me.
Like right now this coffee is horrible and I used to love coffee.
I don't even want to drink this coffee now.
joe rogan
What are you talking about?
brian redban
Just because the whole cigarette and coffee thing together is kind of made what coffee was in my head.
So now just this by itself, it's awful.
jim florentine
Plus your taste buds are probably coming back now without the smoke.
joe rogan
That's a big part of it, dude.
Your taste buds get really fucked up with cigarettes apparently.
brian redban
Yeah, I haven't noticed that.
I've just noticed zero energy.
Like, I can't stop sleeping right now.
joe rogan
Which is so weird to me that, like, chefs would smoke cigarettes.
Like, I don't understand that.
Like, Anthony Bourdain used to smoke.
He quit.
brian redban
It's the cigarette break.
joe rogan
Yeah, but it's still, like, if you're smoking cigarettes, how do you know exactly what things taste like if it numbs your taste buds?
brian redban
I don't know how accurate that really is because I've quit before for like a year and I've never noticed anything with the taste or the smells as at least that drastic of something.
unidentified
Hmm.
joe rogan
I think that's a pretty commonly known thing.
jim florentine
Yeah, definitely.
The taste buds come back, all of a sudden, food that you like, that you don't like anymore.
joe rogan
Yeah, I don't think...
I mean, it probably varies.
I mean, maybe it doesn't affect you the way it affects other people.
Like, you think you have a pretty good sense of taste while you're smoking cigarettes?
brian redban
I used to.
I've noticed that my taste...
Like, I don't really taste things as much anymore, but I think that's just because I'm old.
joe rogan
Your taste buds are broken?
brian redban
That doesn't even make sense.
They start dying, don't they, when you get older?
joe rogan
So we're self-diagnosing again.
We did this the other day.
brian redban
Dr. Ryan.
joe rogan
Yeah, I think that when you're smoking cigarettes, I think it's killing all sorts of shit in your throat.
And the fact that it fucks with your taste buds, it's not surprising.
You're smoking your taste buds.
Your taste buds are in your mouth.
You're flooding your mouth with poisonous fucking smoke.
brian redban
Do you still smoke?
jim florentine
No.
I stopped at like 25. Smoked about seven years.
joe rogan
It's a hard one to quit.
One of the hardest ones to quit and way more common than all those other ones.
One like heroin or meth.
It's way more common that people smoke cigarettes than do meth.
brian redban
And I smoked for 25 years.
joe rogan
Yeah.
jim florentine
And you said you're up to...
I only smoked like eight cigarettes a day.
I wasn't a big smoker.
You said two packs?
brian redban
I was up to two packs the last six months.
joe rogan
You were?
brian redban
Yeah, that's why I quit.
Because I was like, this is ridiculous.
I'm smoking two packs a day now.
And I would be like, why am I smoking so much?
And it was...
joe rogan
Why are you smoking so much?
brian redban
Just, I think, all the crap that's happened in, like, the last six months, so...
joe rogan
That's a lot of cigarettes, dude.
brian redban
A lot of stress.
joe rogan
So you stopped, and now nothing.
brian redban
Right, except this patch.
joe rogan
But no cigarettes at all, for how long?
brian redban
Seven days.
unidentified
Whoa.
joe rogan
And what do they say you have to get over?
What's the hump?
brian redban
They have, like, a list that's on the internet that shows you, like, you know, from, like, day two and three of quitting, this happens, and then a week, and I think it's...
Maybe three months if that list goes to like and after the third month you'll have 98% less of a heart attack chance and really and you're going to grow better fingernails I forget what the list said, but it was involving taste and smells.
joe rogan
Are you really gonna stick with it this time?
brian redban
I don't know.
joe rogan
Wow, that's not a strong fucking...
jamie vernon
I know.
brian redban
That's not a definitive statement.
I'll tell you one thing, Joe.
Being at the Comedy Store has been really rough because that place, for some reason, you can still smoke on the patio and everywhere, almost.
joe rogan
Well, because it's outside.
brian redban
Yes.
Well, all the other bars, you can't even smoke on patios anymore, but I think because it's an old place.
joe rogan
Maybe you should shut the fuck up so they don't get raided.
brian redban
No, they know.
But...
But it's so much smoke.
Everyone smokes.
joe rogan
So you get secondhand smoke.
brian redban
Well, I just can't stop thinking about it.
joe rogan
So when you go there now, what do you do?
brian redban
I'm just dead inside.
I don't know.
Here's the thing.
Yeah, isn't that crazy?
After 20 minutes, your blood pressure drops to normal.
joe rogan
Pulse rate drops to normal.
Temperature in hands and feet increase to normal.
8 hours.
Carbon monoxide levels in blood drops to normal.
Wow, it takes 8 hours.
48 hours.
Nerve endings start regrowing.
Oh my god, nerve endings.
Ability to smell and taste is enhanced.
Just 48 hours outside of cigarettes.
See, there you go.
jim florentine
The 60s, doctors were saying cigarettes are good, take them, smoke them, doing commercials for them.
joe rogan
I think it was earlier than the 60s, but...
jim florentine
Maybe 50s, right?
joe rogan
It was in that J. Edgar Hoover movie.
In the J. Edgar Hoover movie...
What's his name?
What the fuck's his name?
Leonardo DiCaprio.
It's J. Edgar Hoover.
And his mother is talking to him about the doctor prescribing cigarettes for him.
Like, to man him up.
Doctor!
jim florentine
I've been doing commercials.
Yeah, I see the ads.
Cigarettes are good for you.
Smoke them.
brian redban
Look at that.
Five years.
Stroke risk reduced to that of a non-smoker.
Five years, though.
joe rogan
Still, though, that's great.
A risk of cancer of the mouth, throat, esophagus is half that of a smoker in five years.
Just five years.
That's great.
In 10 years, precancerous cells are replaced.
Lung cancer death rate is about half the rate of a smoker in 10 years.
Life expectancy comparable to a non-smoker if you quit for 10 years.
That's beautiful.
Smoker or a non-smoker that works at a paint factory.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
That guy's way more fucked.
brian redban
Or black mold in a...
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
People that work in, like, fucking plants and factories, like, especially back before they knew what killed you and what didn't kill you, like, yeah, a lot of people got a fucking real bad deal.
Like, they found out about that asbestos because a bunch of dudes got cancer from asbestos, you know, from working on it.
They used to have that asbestos, uh, remember that shit?
They used to use for insulation?
jim florentine
Yeah, for all the old houses, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Houses were filled with cancer.
brian redban
Yeah.
jim florentine
My buddy used to work on these old buildings in New York in the 80s, just as like a construction guy or whatever.
He needs a new lung now.
He's on a lung transplant list.
From all that shit, just dumping shit in the garbage and destroying and ripping off walls and stuff like that.
joe rogan
Well, you know, Donna Summer died from lung cancer, I'm pretty sure, and she died because she lived near where the towers fell.
A lot of people that lived where the towers fell, including a lot of the firemen, a lot of the people that rescued people, EMT officers, all the people that worked in that area, there's a lot of people that got sick.
And Donna Summer apparently lived, she had an apartment that was pretty close to that area, and just the shit that was in the air...
I mean, you can only imagine a giant fucking building.
That's, what was it, 100 stories or something like that?
Collapses.
Another one collapses right next to it.
All the fucking dust and shit.
jim florentine
A building that's built in the early 70s, so I'm sure they use asbestos.
But then, of course, I was at the EPA or something, came in after like the third day, said the air quality's fine.
It's harmless.
And everybody just worked there and just hung out and did charity work and shit.
I was down there helping move boxes and shit like that because they were like, all right, I guess the air's okay.
joe rogan
All those first arrivers, all the people, like the EMT people and the fire people, and a lot of those guys get sick.
A lot of cops got sick.
A lot of people that live there that try to come back early, they got sick.
It just only makes sense.
I mean, you're not going to have spring fresh air when two enormous buildings fall.
brian redban
So that just got declassified the other day.
Do you know if there's any new...
jim florentine
Some of it, but there's still a lot missing.
joe rogan
The 9-11 reports?
Yeah.
What do you think happened?
brian redban
I think exactly what they tell us.
joe rogan
Exactly what they tell us.
brian redban
Pretty much.
joe rogan
Two dudes in box cutters, took over an airplane, flew it into the Twin Towers.
What do you think happened?
jim florentine
Pretty close.
joe rogan
I think most likely, almost exactly like they're telling us, except for...
Well...
I think they capitalized on an event, and I think that's why it looks like they set it up.
I think that's one of the reasons why people have so much of a vested interest in trying to prove some sort of a conspiracy with the government in 9-11.
It's because there's so much profit that was made off those wars, especially the war to Iraq.
Forget about what happened at 9-11 and who caused that, but it's the reaction.
That's the craziest thing ever.
The craziest thing is how we just decided to go to war with Iraq, a country that had nothing to do with it.
And then Halliburton's getting these billion-dollar contracts.
They're blowing shit up left and right.
That had nothing to do with 9-11.
That's like...
Someone in, like, Marina Del Rey, you know, picking a fight with you so you nuke Canada.
Like, it's really that fucked up.
It doesn't make any sense at all.
They're totally different countries, totally unrelated.
And that's the most fucked up thing about it, is what they definitely did.
Like, the idea that it was planned, that it was like, they flew through, that's like so complicated.
Like, I don't know if they really are even capable of doing that.
I don't know if there's a group in the highest levels of government that's capable of hiring so many people to keep their mouths shut, so many people to engineer this thing, where you're gonna fly planes in the buildings, you're gonna...
Are there people with box cutters?
Are there Saudi guys that are on those planes?
Are they a fucking hologram?
How do you cover all that?
How do you cover the news story?
How do you make sure that nobody keeps their mouths shut?
How do you make sure that no bad motherfucker on the plane doesn't chuck Norris these fucking terrorist dudes in the head and take over the plane?
How do you stop all that from happening?
It seems to me that a lot of fucking people would have to be involved.
jim florentine
And one person's going to talk, absolutely.
joe rogan
Someone's going to fucking talk.
jim florentine
If they wired that building for explosives, nobody saw them coming in.
There's no video of anybody.
At 2 o'clock in the morning, what about the janitor that mops up?
Didn't see some guys?
Because they say, you know, the way it came down, it had to be explosives inside.
joe rogan
Yeah, the one that's crazy is Tower 7. That's the crazy one.
Because that was the one that wasn't hit by a plane.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
But what freaks me out is not that...
That they had to have explosives to detonate a building and make it collapse like that.
I don't buy that.
Because I don't think we've ever seen a fucking building that big collapse.
How do you know?
Once it starts going...
First of all, what about the possibility that they used shitty engineering and terrible fucking concrete and the unions were involved and they fucking half-assed that giant building and it fell apart when a plane hit it?
That seems like the more likely scenario.
But that Tower 7 just goes like this.
That's the one that's the most crazy because it looks like an implosion.
But apparently it was on fire.
And apparently, you know, the entire building had like some sort of a, underneath the basement, they had some sort of a diesel generator.
So they had these giant drums of diesel and it all caught on fire.
So it was a raging inferno inside the building.
And some people think that compromised the steel and made it collapse like that, but it looks like a fucking controlled demolition.
That's the one that really looks like it.
The Twin Towers look like the top fell off and the whole thing just exploded from the weight.
And when you see all those buildings that are shooting out that they say is reminiscent of explosions...
Yes, but you know that the top of the building is coming down and crushing all those floors.
That's how the thing is getting crushed, right?
What is that?
That's pressure.
What happens when you have pressure?
Windows explode.
Everyone knows that.
So if you slow something down and you're showing these windows exploding because the top is collapsing on the building and you're saying that's evidence of bombs, No, it's not.
No, it's not.
It's evidence of explosions that are happening because of compression.
There's a lot of things going on in that building.
That building is fucking collapsing.
It's fucking billions of pounds of metal and concrete, and it's all falling apart.
Like, you're looking at these little slow-motion things and saying that's definitely bombs.
It's not definitely bombs.
It could be bombs.
It's not definitely bombs, though.
It's more likely that that fucking building's falling apart.
jim florentine
Supposedly, when they built it, they had it where it was going to come straight down if there was ever, I don't know, a hurricane or something like that or an earthquake.
Yeah, that's what I remember seeing a documentary on the trade centers getting built in case they didn't want to just fall over and wipe out six streets.
joe rogan
That is smart if you think about it.
jim florentine
So they built it like that in case a big hurricane or an earthquake came and would just wipe out a bunch of blocks.
So they built it like that that would fall straight down like that.
I don't know how they did it, but, I mean, that's what they said in a documentary.
joe rogan
Fuck!
I would like to see that documentary, because could you imagine if that plane slamming into the building caused that design to kick into effect, and that's why it collapsed?
Either way, man, that's the only time in our lives and in the history of the continental United States that it's been attacked.
You know, that's one of the most fucked up things about us in comparison to the rest of the world.
Everybody's been attacked a fucking million times!
I mean, just look at all the shit that's happened in Mexico.
Just in Mexico.
Just fucking Cortez coming over here and killing like a fucking million people.
All the crazy Aztecs that were killing people.
I mean, there's a lot of attacks and invasions and shit that happened just in Mexico.
Germany's been fucking attacked.
Russia's been attacked.
Everybody's been attacked.
England's been hit with bombs from the Nazis.
Everybody got attacked.
There's spots in France that are so fucked up to this day that you can't go in them for like a hundred thousand years.
They have like a red zone where they have this fenced up zone in France.
jim florentine
Really?
joe rogan
All from the munitions.
All from unexploded munitions and the toxins.
Just from World War II. Dude, it's nuts.
Pull up that article, too, because it was a recent article, photos of France's red zone.
It was amazing.
I sent it to Dan Carlin, who's this guy who has this podcast called Hardcore History, and he's got this insane series on World War I and how fucked up World War I was, and this is a part of that.
All these munitions and all this bomb shit.
It's an area the size of Paris, and you can't even go near it.
jim florentine
Wow.
joe rogan
Do you find it?
Check this shit out.
It's fucking nuts, man.
This is all from the war, and it's- well, this is like- there's really good pictures of the actual place.
What's that?
Yeah, right?
It looks like a zombie movie.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, you can't go anywhere near it.
There's like a fence, and then inside that fence, it's fucking no man's land.
You just can't get in there.
They bombed that place literally to hell.
And they had all these- look at that.
This is all the shit they're finding there.
They have these animals that live there, and they did tests on the animals, like the wild hogs, and they were filled with toxins.
All these horrible fucking chemicals from these explosives, and what did explode, and what leaked into the soil, and they used gas, and I mean, this is a nutty fucking time.
Look at all the fucking bombs they found.
Just laying in a field.
That was when war was war, man.
This Dan Carlin thing, if you don't know anything about World War I, I didn't know shit about World War I. This Dan Carlin piece that he's got right now, it's amazing.
If you've never listened to Hardcore History, it's the best podcast on history.
It's amazing.
And he's got this incredible piece on World War I that he just finished.
I think the last episode he just released.
What a fucking nutty time, dude.
That was just a hundred years ago.
These people were fighting in trenches and shooting at each other from over the hills.
What's really crazy is they, these people in World War I in particular, they were still wearing like the brightly colored outfits that people wore in the 1800s.
They were wearing like their grandfather's fucking battle outfits.
They had outfits that were essentially like targets, like white gloves and white hats and they didn't have any helmets and they were walking.
They don't walk.
jim florentine
Just walk.
joe rogan
Just walk in and fucking shoot at people and then people would shoot back and they'd dig a hole and cry and scream and that's how they did war.
Fucking nuts, man.
jim florentine
Damn.
joe rogan
And if it wasn't for them, we wouldn't be here.
Salute.
God bless those fine warriors.
unidentified
God bless.
joe rogan
Fucked, right?
jim florentine
God bless the troops.
joe rogan
How fucked is that?
That just a hundred years ago was how they did war.
This piece is the hardcore history thing.
It talks about the Germans inventing these new guns that were so powerful.
They used to have to plug up their ears.
They'd plug up their nose.
They would back up 300 yards.
And when the thing went off, you still had to have your mouth open or it'll blow out your eardrums.
So they're packing their nose, they're packing their ears, they're plugging up everything, and you still have to have your mouth open when it goes off 300 yards away from you, because the reverberation, the sound is so powerful that it literally will blow your eardrums open.
And so they were shooting these fucking Volkswagen bus-sized bullets at the people on the other side.
I forget who they were shooting them at.
I forget which country it was they first used it on.
But they would just obliterate with one bullet.
It would obliterate like 70 people.
One bullet would just take out 70 people.
And they were like, what the fuck?
Before then, it was like bullets.
unidentified
One at a time.
joe rogan
You shoot at me, I shoot at you.
Vive la France!
And you'd fucking run out there and...
Then the Germans took shit to the next level.
They had this huge gun that they used to have.
Tanks would pull it.
I mean, it was enormous.
You're talking about this huge cannon of a weapon.
And then they had to figure out the distance.
They had to figure it out.
They would launch one bullet, figure out where you were, and they would lower the gun a little, launch a second bullet.
There's nothing you could do.
Couldn't get away.
This thing was shooting you from miles away.
brian redban
Were you watching that Dallas footage the other night?
The gunman?
joe rogan
No, I heard briefly about it.
What happened?
Some guy went nutty and shot at the cops?
brian redban
Yeah, he got a armored car or van off of, it looks like eBay.
Somebody found the auction listing, and it was just completely armored, and he was just shooting and stuff.
But one crazy thing is, Jamie, if you look at my Twitter, I posted this video of a guy named Scoota underscore Juice Man.
He was filming on the street when this was happening the guy and the armored car was just shooting at cops hitting cop cars and stuff like that and he had Planted all these pipe bombs throughout the city.
It was like Grand Theft Auto.
It was nuts But this guy was shooting like filming it and a bullet you can hear whizz right by his head It is so intense.
joe rogan
Oh my god fuck that So, do you remember that North Hollywood shootout?
brian redban
Yeah.
Yeah, I was here for that.
joe rogan
We were on the set of news radio and we all huddled up in the break room and watched it on television.
We were like, what the fuck?
Watching these two dudes with full armor on and machine guns and shit just fucking gunning down cops.
Did you remember that?
jim florentine
That wasn't the scene that they kind of recreated from the movie Heat, is it?
joe rogan
Yeah, that was the inspiration of it.
jim florentine
Holy shit.
joe rogan
Yeah, that really happened.
It was called the North Hollywood Shootout.
Two just maniacs.
Two crazy dudes, all fucked up on drugs, out of their mind, and just armed to the dick.
Their trunk was stuffed.
And the cops had regular service revolvers.
And they're like, what am I going to do with a fucking 9mm against these?
I mean, what's going on here?
We're so undergunned.
So, um, I think they changed a shitload of laws after that, too, about, like, how much machine guns you could have.
Right.
What happens when you start stockpiling that kind of ammo and bulletproof vests and shit?
jim florentine
So that was pretty much kind of the scene from that movie Heat?
joe rogan
Yeah, I think that was the inspiration for it.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Is this the new one?
jamie vernon
That's the old one.
joe rogan
Oh, this is North Hollywood?
Yeah, okay, so these dudes, they have full-on...
Bulletproof vests the whole deal.
They're like wearing military garb and then they they have the trunk open and inside the car.
It's all guns.
It's all guns and bullets and This dude is like he's all armored Essentially and so he's shooting at these cops And, you know, the cops are fucked.
They're hiding, they're waiting for backup, but it was really scary because these guys are kind of idiots.
And it makes you think, like, if someone who really knew what the fuck they were doing, like some real tactical guy, some SEALs or something like that, they went nutty and decided to do this, you wouldn't need a large group.
In order to shut entire city down my friend Justin talks about this all the time because he knows like a lot of people in special ops and all those He's kind of a he would call himself on a firearms enthusiast.
I call him a gun nut He's definitely a gun nut, but if you had a bunch of dudes that were like really Really good at killing people like this, and you just brought in 20 of them.
They shut an entire city down.
jim florentine
Absolutely.
Where was this?
Just on Hollywood Boulevard?
joe rogan
No, this is in North Hollywood.
What's happening here?
How come we're not seeing anybody shooting at anybody yet?
These guys are lazy.
Come on, man.
Okay, here he goes.
So now he's just running and shooting at cops.
I love these.
It's Wolf Blitzer reporting on the news.
Oh, that's not Wolf Blitzer.
Sounds a little wolfish.
jim florentine
Yeah, it definitely does.
unidentified
Yeah, I think that's...
joe rogan
That's the guy who got shot?
unidentified
- Yeah, I think so. - Yeah, I think that guy's dead, right?
joe rogan
The guy in the car.
Yeah, I think that's why he's rolling.
Or he's hurt.
I forget what happened, but I remember the cops let him bleed out, and people were saying that it was cruel, that the cops didn't call the ambulances and have this guy taken care of, and risked their own lives to do so, to get this guy to...
brian redban
Oh, wait.
He just took off.
joe rogan
He stapled this thing shut.
Like Keanu Reeves in that John Wick movie?
jim florentine
Yeah.
brian redban
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
Did you see that movie?
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's a fucking good movie, man.
brian redban
It's pretty good.
joe rogan
I watched it on a plane coming back from Mexico this weekend.
It's a fucking badass movie.
brian redban
Did you see Lost Road yet?
joe rogan
No, that was the best, like, as far as, like, action movie, that was the best action movie I've seen in a long time.
It was badass.
jim florentine
What's it called?
joe rogan
John Wick.
brian redban
Yeah, it was kind of Matrix-y.
It was pretty good.
joe rogan
Well, it's not about the Matrix at all.
It's about his hitman who these Russian mobsters fuck with him and he decides to go after them and kill them all.
It's just the gratuitous violence level is off the fucking chain.
jim florentine
I gotta check it out.
I love that shit.
joe rogan
Like the amount of murders that Keanu Reeves did.
It's insane.
I mean, I've never seen a guy kill more people in a movie.
It was fun to watch.
The way he was doing it was badass.
It was almost believable.
The way they had it set up, everything was really tight quarters.
It wasn't like a retard wagon train where they have a bunch of guys coming out and somehow he managed to survive.
You kind of buy it pretty much every step of the way.
You know there's not a real person who's that accurate with a gun, but if it's a video game, this could be possible.
jim florentine
There was no scene where you go, how is he going to get out of this?
joe rogan
There was one.
jim florentine
There was one.
joe rogan
They kind of gave you a way out.
It kind of made sense.
Good enough.
Good enough.
Because the gratuitous violence in the action scenes really make you want to go be a hitman.
You want to just go fuck people up.
brian redban
It's a fun movie.
joe rogan
It's a wild fucking movie.
I heard that Jurassic Park movie sucked.
brian redban
I heard it was okay, yeah.
But it looks good.
I'm sure it's good.
joe rogan
I heard it was dumb.
Do you see it?
jamie vernon
Yeah, I saw it.
It's really fun.
joe rogan
You like everything, though.
brian redban
It's fun.
jamie vernon
It's a fun action movie.
joe rogan
What's the last thing you don't like?
jamie vernon
I see plenty of movies I don't like.
joe rogan
Give me one.
jim florentine
Pitch Perfect, too.
joe rogan
Who loves it?
jamie vernon
Haven't seen them.
joe rogan
Loved it.
Five thumbs up.
jim florentine
Did you see the first one?
jamie vernon
No, I didn't.
I heard it was enjoyable, but I wanted to say, you were talking about the Twin Towers.
Before the Jurassic World movie, because it's in 3D IMAX, they showed the trailer for this new movie with Joseph Gordon-Levitt about this French tightrope walker that went between the Twin Towers and the 70s, and they recreated 1974 Manhattan.
joe rogan
Whoa.
jamie vernon
They recreated the Twin Towers, and it looked awesome.
It freaked the shit out of you.
I'll show you a picture of it.
joe rogan
Really?
jamie vernon
Yeah.
joe rogan
Is it all CGI? Oh my goodness!
jamie vernon
It says it's like gravity-esque kind of recreation of this whole scenario.
Just the way the trailer starts out.
I want to ruin it for you even now.
You need to see it in IMAX because it was awesome.
joe rogan
No, I need to see it right now.
Do you have it?
jamie vernon
I'll show you, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, show that shit.
jamie vernon
Fuck an IMAX. Well, but it's 3D as well in the theater.
joe rogan
That's quite alright.
unidentified
Alright.
joe rogan
I can get the idea.
This is insane.
It's so cool what they can do right now with CGI. Unless that's on a window washer's cart and just shooting it up to the top.
jamie vernon
The Trade Center, it's gone.
joe rogan
Right.
Yeah, good point.
This is all fake.
It's amazing.
Come on.
That's incredible.
That's all fake.
Oh my god.
My fucking heart hurts.
That view is insane.
Oh my god.
I'm literally freaking out.
My hands are sweating.
My toes won't stop twitching.
unidentified
He's cute.
joe rogan
So he's standing on top of the Twin Tower, and you get to see what the fucking drop looks like, and Homeboy is now standing on an I-beam.
It's poking out over the edge.
I don't think I can watch this.
I can imagine this in 3D. Oh my god, I can't even imagine what I'm seeing with my own face.
This man, his balance is amazing.
Oh, is it?
Jesus Christ, boy!
I'm having a really hard time watching this.
Fuck.
That has to be like one of the freakiest...
Oh, you son of a bitch.
He's standing on one foot.
What are you, a yoga master?
brian redban
Acting as kegels.
joe rogan
Oh my god, in 3D. In IMAX 3D. Oh, that's good.
unidentified
Wow, what a trailer.
joe rogan
The walk.
How crazy is that that we give a fuck that he does that?
That he does that?
I mean, if he walked a tightrope and that tightrope was six inches off the ground, you would not give a shit.
jim florentine
Nope.
joe rogan
No one would say it.
brian redban
Sweaty palms.
joe rogan
But because he is a hundred stories up, you know that he's fighting every single instinct, every natural instinct the body has to get the fuck away from danger.
brian redban
Fuck that.
jim florentine
Now, this isn't the French guy, is it?
Because they did a documentary a few years ago back?
brian redban
Yeah.
jim florentine
Okay.
It's the same movie.
Yeah, it was a documentary about this guy that had the footage of him from afar, but...
joe rogan
I didn't watch that recent one with the family.
The family where the one guy with the Wallendas, is that what they are?
One of them died and they still do it like the mother and the son did it and they passed each other on the rope.
What the fuck, man?
You know, I mean, what kind of a way to make a living is that?
jim florentine
I know.
I'd be pissed at my dad if that's what he did.
Now I gotta follow in your footsteps.
joe rogan
How good do you think you could get?
Do you ever think you could get good enough?
Like, maybe it's just us.
Maybe we look at that and go, look, man, it ain't hard.
It's just we don't know how to do it.
You know what I mean?
jim florentine
Right.
joe rogan
Like, if you got really good, can you get good enough to a point where you could walk on one of those things with 100% certainty that you're not going to fall?
Is that possible?
Because look, if I made you a road across the Grand Canyon, but the road was only as wide as this table, I could walk it.
I would not like it.
I'd freak out the entire way.
I'd try to stay calm, but if there's no wind and I knew that the road was as wide as this table, I'm 100% confident that I'd be able to suck it up and make it to the other side.
When I got to the other side, I'd probably be like, what the fuck?
I'd probably be freaking out.
jim florentine
How long do you think it would take you?
joe rogan
I don't know how far the walk is.
How far is the walk?
I wouldn't rush it, I'll tell you that.
jim florentine
Probably a couple hours.
joe rogan
I wouldn't rush it.
jim florentine
You wouldn't walk fast?
joe rogan
No, I would not.
No, I would not.
I would be fucking...
I would do it as a meditation.
I would try to concentrate entirely on my breath in each footstep and just keep my balance good and stay calm.
But a table, like, I could get on this fucking table right now and I'll tell you right now, I'll never fall.
I will never fall standing up on this table.
Unless I slip on something.
You know what I'm saying?
But if I'm standing on this table right now, there's no way.
This is a flat thing.
It's very wide.
I'd be fine.
And I could walk across the table.
With what certainty?
100% certainty.
Unless there's something really wrong with my body, or I'm that fucking drunk.
If I had a gamble, I would be 100% certain that I could walk across the length of this table.
But if you made it a mile long, and you put it over the Grand Canyon, that's where shit gets weird.
jim florentine
You think you'd have to sit down at some point because you're like freaking out?
joe rogan
Maybe.
But the point is that anybody can walk on this fucking table.
We all know how to walk.
Do you think you could get good enough at walking on a tightrope that it's almost like this table?
You know, as far as, like, the probabilities?
But someone can, right?
I mean, there has to be someone out there.
Like, if you watch those Cirque du Soleil fuckers, they can do shit that doesn't seem like you should be able to do it.
They can do stuff with their bodies.
Like, I saw one guy, and he was pressing one guy.
The other guy was doing a handstand with one hand holding this guy's hand.
So this guy's got a hand...
Another guy's doing a handstand, or maybe they were using two hands, and they were holding, and the guy was doing a handstand on the other guy's hands.
They're standing up.
It's fucking ridiculous.
Who the fuck do you know that can do that?
Does anybody know anybody that can do that?
No.
Unless you know a Cirque du Soleil dude, or a Cirque du Soleil gal.
But even they fuck up every now and then.
Like one dropped at the MGM a couple years ago, right?
Wasn't it?
It's super risky.
You ever watch that, Cirque du Soleil?
unidentified
Yeah.
jim florentine
Yeah, I've seen it.
I just went to like a local circus in the middle of a field.
I took my son last week, and these people are with no wires and shit like that.
What the fuck are they doing?
They're earning, son.
Yeah, what did I get?
There's like a hundred of them in it.
There's only like 30 people in the crowd.
I'm like, what are these people getting paid?
They're doing two shows.
The next show has like a hundred people going from town to town, and they're swinging off these ropes.
I'm like...
joe rogan
It's a weird make a living, man.
But that was like the carny.
There was a classic character in movies and stories.
Most people knew about the traveling people that would go from town to town.
And these carnivals.
They set up carnivals.
They're all dangerous and shit.
Carnies.
I mean, that's a classic description, right?
That's kind of fucked up.
jim florentine
And these guys looked at the guys that worked at definitely...
joe rogan
They all did, right?
jim florentine
Yeah, even last week, they looked creepy.
joe rogan
Well, you remember those fucking machines they would set up?
Like, they had carnivals in Massachusetts.
We would go to these local places.
You know, they'd be set up seasonally and something like that.
And you'd go down there and they'd have fried dough.
You know that fried dough with the fucking powdered sugar on it?
What's that called?
unidentified
Waffle?
brian redban
No.
joe rogan
Waffle cakes funnel cake funnel cakes elephant ear funnel cake yeah There's a there's a there's a Zepa something a fucking Italian name for it Bambolino or something like that that's not it that it starts with a Z but anyway the point being this fried dough these stands and these and then they'd have these Ridiculous carousels like what kind of an asshole do you have to be to get on that and risk your life on this fucking contraption that's put together by these guys and You know,
what kind of regulations do they have for carnivals back then?
jim florentine
Yeah, there's not an inspector coming in every day when they're setting it up to make sure it's safe in the little town that they're in.
joe rogan
It's just such a weird, like, common thing.
It's a common thing.
Like, carnivals are common.
Everybody knows about carnivals.
But to have that kind of a show go travel from town to town, set up, put up tents, put on little weird shows, try to get everybody's money, and then get the fuck out of Dodge.
Move on to the next place.
All jaded and weird.
jim florentine
Yeah, because every move you make, for two more dollars, you could sit two rows up, another dollar over here, ride the camel, and my son rode the camel for seven bucks a piece.
He rode a camel?
Yeah, we rode a camel together.
He rode the elephant for nine.
That was nine and stuff, yeah.
joe rogan
They have elephants that listen to them.
jim florentine
Program for two bucks.
joe rogan
That's a fucked up thing.
The circus animals.
Like, you ever see the one with the bear and the monkey?
Where there's a trained bear and a monkey and they're riding bikes together?
unidentified
Never seen that?
No, I haven't seen it.
joe rogan
Oh, it's pretty funny.
unidentified
Did you see that?
joe rogan
It's pretty fucked up.
The bear crashes into the monkey.
The monkey falls.
The bear crashes into him.
And the bear decides the monkey's an asshole, so he kills him in front of everybody.
Because he was in pain, and he associated the pain with this monkey fucking up.
jim florentine
Right.
joe rogan
I think he might have thought the monkey attacked him.
That's why he fell.
He might have thought the monkey was attacking him, so he mauls this monkey in front of everybody.
And they're trying to get him off the monkey.
He's a fucking giant, trained grizzly bear.
It's such a...
It's such a hilarious video.
It's horrible, but it's also hilarious.
Like, what the fuck is wrong with people?
You got a trained bear and a trained monkey.
Look at this.
They're riding a bike together.
I mean, that is a real fucking bear.
Holy shit.
That's a real bear.
Now, look.
This guy falls down.
The bear falls.
The bear knocks into this guy.
And so he gets back on...
Is that it already?
jamie vernon
Yeah, it's just right to it.
brian redban
Oh my gosh.
joe rogan
I missed it then.
I fucked up.
I didn't see where the monkey hit him.
I was too busy laughing.
It's just so crazy that people think it's okay to get a bear to ride a fucking bicycle with a monkey.
So, okay, so there's a monkey in front of him, and the bear's behind him.
Okay, I sit and see, because the guy got in the way.
Right here.
Boom!
The guy kind of fucked up, and the bear runs over the monkey and just decides to maul him.
Fuck this.
Riding bike sucks.
I'm a bear.
And these guys, they can't do shit about it.
They're watching him tear this fucking monkey apart.
There's nothing they could do.
And then they realize, like, Jesus Christ, we're working with a bear.
You know?
You thought of him as Hank, your co-worker.
This is my buddy Hank.
You know?
Oh, Hank's a murderer.
Hank's a fucking murderer.
No, no, he's a good guy.
He's a good guy unless he crashes into you with a bike.
unidentified
Yeah.
And he just eats you in front of crowds.
jim florentine
It reminds me of Dice had a famous bit about Siegfried and Roy.
He's like, you know, people just bought those tickets every night.
Go, tonight could be the night.
brian redban
What?
joe rogan
They don't have one of those anymore.
They don't have a Siegfried and Roy type act anymore.
I can't think of one famous thing in Vegas like that.
They still have the lions, apparently, at the MGM. The MGM has lions, and the Barrage has dolphins.
It's kind of fucked.
brian redban
Didn't they take the exhibit of the lion exhibit out of the MGM? I don't know, did they?
Yeah, I don't remember seeing it anymore.
unidentified
Did they?
joe rogan
They took it out?
That's good.
I went to it a long time ago, and I was like, what in the fuck?
jamie vernon
Didn't one of them get attacked in there?
joe rogan
Yes, one of the trainers got attacked.
Yeah, there's a video of that.
I saw that.
But the idea that you could have a fucking casino in Vegas.
And inside this glass box is these poor tigers, or lions rather, they're getting tortured.
And they're looking at these people walking around staring at them.
That's way more unnatural than a zoo.
Plus, cigarette smoke.
jim florentine
Cigarettes.
Drinking.
Screaming.
unidentified
Yeah.
brian redban
Poor lions.
joe rogan
Yeah.
That's a fucked up place for a lion.
brian redban
Why do people have lines in the back of their Lamborghinis in Dubai?
Is that a real thing that people do?
joe rogan
You're talking about that dude who's driving the AMG Mercedes and he has a leopard in his front seat?
Is it a cheetah?
I think it was a cheetah actually.
Why do they do that?
They do that because why did Mike Tyson buy a tiger?
Why did Mike Tyson own those crazy animals?
There's a documentary on it that's really good.
It's called The Elephant in the Living Room.
And it's all about people that keep these crazy exotic pets.
And this one guy that had lions, and the lions lived in a small box cart.
brian redban
Look at that!
joe rogan
Where does this guy live?
jamie vernon
Persian Gulf, it says.
joe rogan
Ah, Persians.
Look at him.
He's the most gangster.
He's hanging out with...
Whoa, whoa, whoa, scroll up.
He's hanging out with the lions and they're covered in blood.
What the fuck are they covered in blood from?
brian redban
Because there's a dead animal right there.
joe rogan
Oh, Jesus.
So he would give them...
Wow, they killed that thing.
So he gave them a calf.
They maul the calf.
And he comes in and sits next to the body and hangs out with them.
brian redban
Like a shark.
joe rogan
They gave him a shark to kill.
brian redban
This guy seems awesome.
joe rogan
Well, there's always going to be people like this.
Whenever there's billions of dollars out there, look at that.
The guy's on a Mercedes, an AMG Mercedes, and he's standing on the roof, which is an asshole thing to do, and he's feeding his lion, who's on the hood of the car.
jim florentine
And his friend's at the driver's seat.
joe rogan
And his friend is like, you've got to be fucking kidding me, man!
unidentified
This is going to be the best YouTube video!
joe rogan
This guy's nuts.
This seemed like one dude.
So is he like training these lions?
brian redban
I think he's just badass.
joe rogan
He probably fucks them.
That's his Instagram account?
That's hilarious.
He's got money.
Look at that fucking one on the top.
Hold on, go back to that one.
Look at that shit.
That is so crazy.
brian redban
Get off my car.
joe rogan
He's on his knees, like on his toes, bent down like a rapper, like if he was playing dice or something.
And right next to him is a lion, and he's on a Mercedes.
That's got to be his dating profile for whatever online service he's on, Tinder or whatever.
That's his dating profile.
unidentified
Me, I love nature and Mercedes Benz.
brian redban
Bitches be sucking my dick, yo.
unidentified
That's such a ridiculous photo.
joe rogan
What is, you know, how's a guy like that live in this world?
It's just, I love that if you're gonna have people that are flashy in any way, you're always gonna have that one person that takes flashiness to the most fucked up place.
So like whenever you have a house that's like the most, the hugest, like what was the one that we were looking at the other day that was in Bel Air that was 50?
That was after the show was over, right?
Yeah.
Five hundred million dollars in Bel Air.
And the previous most expensive one sold in Bel Air was like a hundred million dollars, right?
What the fuck?
Really?
How come you don't retire?
Why do you have a $500 million house?
That's ridiculous.
brian redban
That's cool.
unidentified
So, yeah, this guy's a good thing.
brian redban
It's got a hooker pool.
jim florentine
So this was, the other guy was in Dubai?
jamie vernon
Yeah.
jim florentine
Yeah, so, you know, all these Russian chicks, European chicks go over to Dubai trying to find rich guys.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, when we were, I was in Abu Dhabi for the UFC and a bunch of the guys went to Dubai just to see what it was like and go get some food and shit.
And they said that they walked into a bar, they had no idea, and it was literally all Russian hookers.
The entire bar.
They were like, dude, I think this is a hooker bar.
Like, it was all Russian hookers waiting for guys to show up.
And they got there, and I say Russian, but you know, Middle East or Eastern Bloc country type accents.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
And they were like, I've never seen anything like it.
Like, there's so much money there, apparently, that they just, that's just where they go.
They know that rich people are coming in to vacation, and they have certain spots where they can just find these Russian broads.
jim florentine
And there's also a bunch that come over from Eastern Europe, and they just try to find American men to move to America.
joe rogan
Did you ever think about doing that?
jim florentine
Absolutely.
joe rogan
Getting yourself a nice tent from Siberia.
jim florentine
Yeah, I mean, I got some bedrooms in my house.
joe rogan
Come on, stay.
Stay around.
Get your green card.
jim florentine
I've had friends who bring them back to the hotel, like, oh yeah, you know, I got two mansions that live here, live here, you know, and then bang them and then try to get rid of them.
Afterwards, they got nothing.
joe rogan
Eventually, if they keep doing that, though, they'll find a guy.
jim florentine
Oh yeah, absolutely.
But Dubai's really weird.
Like, that's where if you kiss someone in public, you get thrown in jail and stuff like that.
So you really gotta do it.
You can't do it in the bar.
You can't even do it until you get back to in the hotel room.
joe rogan
Well, there was a woman who got caught with melatonin.
She got caught with melatonin, which is a natural supplement that helps you go to sleep.
And they locked her in fucking jail.
She was an executive at, I think, Endemol, like one of those production companies.
And there was another lady, or another guy rather, that got arrested for having some prescription medication that's illegal there, but not illegal in the UK, where he lived.
And so he had some prescription medication that he travels with, that he has to take.
And his doctor prescribes it, and they fucking locked him right in jail.
They took his medication away from him and threw him in a box.
jim florentine
Yeah, there was a rapper, too, going over, because they do a lot of concerts over there.
A rapper had some, I think he had some marijuana on him, just a little.
He got thrown in jail for it, too.
brian redban
Carrie Bradshaw.
She kissed that guy on the beach and got arrested in Sex and the City 2. I did not see that.
joe rogan
Is that a movie?
They had more than one movie?
brian redban
He saw that.
joe rogan
No, I did not.
brian redban
We talked about it.
joe rogan
Sex and the City 2?
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
No, we definitely did not talk about it.
brian redban
I never said I saw Sex and the City 2. She kissed Mr. Big on the beach and they got in trouble.
joe rogan
I definitely didn't see it.
I watched some of the previews, I think, and we might have mocked it, but we never talked about me seeing it.
brian redban
Oh, I wasn't allowed to talk about it.
jim florentine
There was actually a second one?
joe rogan
If I saw it, I would talk about it.
brian redban
You liked Second City.
joe rogan
You are so retarded.
jim florentine
I know.
joe rogan
You really should go to a doctor.
jim florentine
I think the patch did something to him.
joe rogan
Yeah, there's something wrong with your brain.
Like, half your sentences today are so goofy.
brian redban
That's ridiculous.
joe rogan
That's exactly what you're just saying.
It's like you're off.
I could feel it.
brian redban
Oh, yeah.
I miss cigarettes.
Totally.
I feel it.
joe rogan
Are you going to make it?
brian redban
No.
joe rogan
You're so weak.
brian redban
No, I'll make it.
joe rogan
Just man up.
brian redban
I'm hungry right now.
I'm not normally hungry, and so it's weird.
joe rogan
That's something that they say.
That's a big one with cigarette smokers, that the appetite-suppressing aspect of it.
brian redban
It's 100%.
I've never wanted to eat at 2 in the afternoon or whatever.
joe rogan
Well, you've got to replace it with something else.
You obviously have an addiction, so you've got to get a new healthy addiction.
That's what you've got to do.
jim florentine
Yeah, start calling it a jam or something.
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brian redban
I've been drinking Jamba Juice lately though.
joe rogan
That's good.
jim florentine
Fruit juices to start.
joe rogan
That's not bad.
The problem with Jamba Juice, not Jamba Juice, but like a lot of those places you think you're getting, I'm going to have a smoothie.
The amount of sugar that's in those smoothies, it's a lot of it is juice.
And really, when you have an orange, you're supposed to eat an orange.
Like, orange juice is kind of an unnatural way to get orange stuff.
You know, to have such a concentrated amount.
Like, when you're drinking orange juice, the way that it comes into your body, your body's like, how the fuck did you get this like this?
Like, how come it's not in the orange?
Why are you not chewing fiber?
How come this isn't attached to the pulp and all that other stuff?
Like, how'd you do this?
And you're just pouring it right in your bloodstream.
It's just basically like sugar water.
It's better for you, like, fresh squeezed, a lot of vitamins in it and stuff, but it's a lot of sugar.
A lot of calories in fruit juices.
jim florentine
Yeah, try the fresh juice.
I'm gonna make it right there.
joe rogan
Don't give him advice for fruit.
He's not gonna take it anywhere.
brian redban
I used to juice.
joe rogan
He's already thinking about the cigarette he's gonna have in his car on the way home.
He's gonna stop at the gas station and like, fuck it, man.
brian redban
I wish.
joe rogan
Just crash this motherfucker right into the beach.
Jim Florentine, what are you doing out in L.A.? What's going on?
Got anything happening?
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
What are you doing?
jim florentine
You know, usual meetings where they tell you you're great.
joe rogan
Oh, those are the best.
jim florentine
Yeah, we're going to put you in a movie, and we've got a part for you.
Adam Sandlow will probably call you tomorrow at home, and then you never hear from him again.
You know, one of those.
joe rogan
Sometimes those pan out.
jim florentine
Yeah, once in a while they do, actually.
joe rogan
So that's what you're out here for?
jim florentine
Yeah, I'm going to do some stand-up shows.
I think you're going to do a show with us.
joe rogan
We're doing together at the Comedy Store.
And Brian, you're doing that show too, right?
brian redban
Yeah, and Joey Diaz just got added to it.
joe rogan
Oh, Jesus.
brian redban
Dean Delray.
joe rogan
And that's a belly room show too, folks, so don't sleep.
It only seats like 70 people.
It's only supposed to seat 70 people.
brian redban
It's probably already sold out.
joe rogan
Yeah, it probably is.
But they really jam like 90 in there, right?
I think.
brian redban
Yeah, sure.
joe rogan
Somewhere in there.
brian redban
Maybe.
joe rogan
Fire Marshal doesn't know.
unidentified
Apparently, you're supposed to get 57. 57. I love that room, the belly room.
It's the best.
brian redban
I gotta go there tonight and check to make sure the sound system's still there, because I wasn't working last night.
I think they might have blown their new speakers up there.
joe rogan
Oh, no.
Anybody can use it, right?
brian redban
Unfortunately, yeah.
There's not a sound guy up in there.
It's kind of like most comedy clubs, you usually have a sound guy that takes care of the soundboard and everything.
In the belly room, it's kind of like whoever's running the show kind of takes over the soundboard, which is a horrible idea.
joe rogan
So you guys put in a new soundboard, Kill Tony, the one episode.
You guys raised money.
brian redban
No, I didn't.
joe rogan
That was a stand-up show, right?
brian redban
Yeah, I did.
Death Squad showed it, put all the money towards it, and then the comedy store matched it.
So we got a really high-end sound system up there.
joe rogan
And somebody might have blown it.
brian redban
Maybe.
I'll find out tonight.
joe rogan
I'm there this weekend, too.
I'm there Friday and Saturday.
I'm doing the belly room.
brian redban
Yeah, we have Kill Tony tonight there, so I get to...
jim florentine
Put a new soundboard on your Amazon gift shop, whatever the hell it is.
unidentified
Wishlist.
jim florentine
Wishlist, yeah.
joe rogan
So, you've done the store before, right?
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
What do you do mostly in New York?
Which clubs do you work at?
jim florentine
There's a new club called The Stand.
joe rogan
You keep hearing good things about that place.
jim florentine
Great club.
joe rogan
Yeah, Ari does that place a lot, right?
jim florentine
Yeah, it's similar to the Comedy Cellar downstairs in her basement upstairs.
You hang the comics, great food.
I do that, you know, in the Comedy Cellar.
Stand on New York still.
joe rogan
Are there good road gigs around there still?
jim florentine
Not really.
Not in that area.
joe rogan
Is Governors still around?
jim florentine
Governors are still there.
joe rogan
That's a great gig.
jim florentine
That's a great gig.
Brokerage in Belmar.
joe rogan
The Brokerage is still around.
jim florentine
Brokerage is still there.
joe rogan
Wow.
I used to have a hard time getting booked there because I was dirty.
jim florentine
So did I. I worked there one time and the guy hated me.
The guy originally owned it and never went back after that.
The Governors, they didn't care.
joe rogan
No, Governors, they just wanted you to be funny.
But the Brokerage, they wanted it squeaky clean.
1970s Johnny Carson style.
jim florentine
Yep.
joe rogan
There's a bunch of those clubs.
Well, that's Comedy and Magic Club.
Joey Diaz still can't work the Comedy and Magic Club.
They had to have a conversation with me about Joey because Joey was my opening act.
I always brought Joey with me as much as I can.
And Comedy and Magic Club were like, we have to talk to you about this.
brian redban
I always found that weird, though, that they let Ari Shaffir...
joe rogan
He's not as dirty as Joey.
brian redban
He used to be pretty fucking dirty.
I remember the weekend that happened.
joe rogan
It's a different level.
It's a different level.
When Joey's doing the pigeon.
You know what you're doing?
You're eating a monkey from behind.
You're sticking your nose right in your asshole.
Like a pigeon.
And he goes like this.
He goes, that's a chicken, but what the fuck?
You know what I'm talking about.
The Pigeon.
Yeah, he was just doing some crazy ass-eating stuff, and Mike is like, that's it.
Because that was also back before, like, there was, the shows would be packed, but half the people would know me from, like, maybe Fear Factor, and he had a bunch of regulars that would go there every Sunday, no matter what, every weekend, no matter what.
He's got a bunch of, like, regulars, and he always has these squeaky clean shows.
So they would come to see me, and they'd have no idea what the fuck was about to hit them.
And Joey would get on stage, and a bunch of them barely made it through.
Almost had heart attacks.
jim florentine
Really?
joe rogan
Ran out into the fucking street.
What did you do to me?
They were used to the 9 a.m.
Jay Leno show on Sunday.
Not really 9 a.m., but it might as well be.
He would do these Tonight Show monologue sets.
jim florentine
Right, he would work on it on Sundays.
joe rogan
Yeah.
And he would go down there and just read a bunch of very non-offensive, very mild Tonight Show-style jokes.
So they got used to that.
And then Joey Diaz just hits the stage like a fucking tornado.
They just didn't know what to do.
So half of them loved it, but it was a good percent.
But now if we went back, it would be 100%.
They would know what the fuck to expect.
And it would be awesome, but he's scared.
jim florentine
Yeah.
I only did that club once.
Tonight Show people were coming to see me and they gave me a warning.
They go, look, I don't know what you're going to do up here.
I go, I'm doing a Tonight Show set.
joe rogan
Yeah.
jim florentine
It's four and a half minutes.
I can't do any dirty shit on a Tonight Show.
It's going to be fine.
Like, all right, just make sure.
We know you've got a reputation from the East Coast, from Howard Stern and all this stuff.
joe rogan
How gross.
jim florentine
I know.
I'm auditioning for a Tonight Show.
I'm not going to talk about ass-eating.
joe rogan
You'd have to really say it in a way.
Right.
What year was this?
jim florentine
This was probably like eight years ago, seven years ago.
joe rogan
They have lighter standards now.
Like, standards and practices, you can get away with a lot of shit now that you never could get away with just a few years ago.
Like, the internet is opening up the boundaries.
Like, just look at the gore factor.
Like, I was watching CSI the other day, and they had some bodies that they were, like, picking bullets out of or some shit, and I was like, whoa!
Like, I can't believe this is regular TV! Like, really fucking gory!
They show it to you, like, really quick.
You know, like, they don't show you, like, long, focused shots, but it's enough that you're like, whoa!
brian redban
I can't believe this is regular TV! Do you think the Fear Factor episode with the cum would be able to be passed nowadays?
joe rogan
No.
Can't make people drink cum.
Someone's son, someone's daughter, you're making them drink cum on TV? I re-watched that the other day.
brian redban
That is one of the grossest things I've ever seen.
jim florentine
Wait, someone drank cum?
joe rogan
Oh, they drank a big gulp full of cum.
They drank like 24 ounces.
jim florentine
It didn't make the show?
joe rogan
No, it never got in the air in America.
But it made the air in Holland and a bunch of other countries.
So they took the video of that and they uploaded it to YouTube.
You can watch it.
It's available.
It was the most ridiculous shit ever.
jim florentine
Was it a guy or a girl?
joe rogan
One guy and two girls.
brian redban
That's a great guy.
Did you see the new Fear Factor ripoff show that's starting?
joe rogan
I heard about it.
Yeah.
brian redban
It's pretty close.
joe rogan
Good.
brian redban
They even advertise it in the commercial, like, just like Fear Factor, bullseye, or whatever.
Oh, really?
joe rogan
They say just like Fear Factor?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Wow, that's hilarious.
Yeah, man, that was a show, that was one of the rare times in life where someone got fired because someone drank cum on TV. Because that was what happened.
We all got fired because someone drank cum on TV. And I was happy.
I was like, good, it's cancelled.
I was literally happy that it was cancelled.
jim florentine
That's why the show got cancelled?
joe rogan
Yes.
Yeah, the ratings were really good.
It was doing really well, because when it came back, the stunts were insane.
But the stunts were getting fucking hairy.
Like, we had a couple pretty big accidents.
There was one where this couple left.
Like, the driver, something happened, and his windshield was obscured with a cardboard box, and they almost crashed into this lady's leg.
Like, it was...
It was enough that I was like, whoa, you guys are taking some fucking chances here.
There was always a certain amount of chance in Fear Factor, but they were taking some chances that I was like, what happens if this goes wrong?
One of them was, you were attached to a bungee cord that was attached to a helicopter.
And you had to, your partner had to unlock you.
So there's like a chain full of keys and then there's a lock.
And so you have to find the right lock.
So it's you and you're competing with someone else.
And there's helicopters.
And the helicopter has a hold of you on a bungee cord, pulled tight.
And then so when they let go, when they unlock you, they let go and you go shooting off into fucking space.
unidentified
Holy shit.
jim florentine
Shit.
joe rogan
And I'm saying, like, they were flying through the air.
Flying through the air on the most crazy bungee cord you've ever seen in your life.
And it's attached to a fucking helicopter.
So you're watching this, and you're like, what if the helicopter crashes?
Like, has anybody done this?
Like, how many dry runs have you done with this?
jim florentine
Right.
joe rogan
Like, you know, the stunt guys, they don't even get paid, and they would have to recreate this fucking thing.
And a lot of times they would recreate it with PAs.
They would get a PA to do the stunt, and they would pay them like a hundred bucks, and then they would attach them to this fucking thing and launch them into space.
jim florentine
Holy shit.
joe rogan
I don't think someone's gonna die!
You can't...
There's no way you can prevent...
Like, you can't stop anything if it goes wrong.
There's no...
Like, if that bungee cord snaps...
You're dead, okay?
If the helicopter crashes, everyone's dead.
And they did it off a canyon.
Like, there's, like, this, like, huge cliff.
And the tree was attached to the people on the edge of this cliff.
Oh, this is it right here.
brian redban
Yeah, somebody's running the Fear Factor Facebook page and making all these new video clips.
unidentified
Look at this.
joe rogan
Look at this shit.
unidentified
Holy shit.
joe rogan
Back that up a second, just so you can see how retarded that is.
brian redban
Whoa.
joe rogan
Watch this.
She gets the key in, she unlocks it, and the moment she does...
As soon as she gets free, he pulls the- Look at that fucking thing!
Look at that thing!
She got shot through the fucking air!
On the bottom of a helicopter!
So ridiculous.
That lady shaved her head too.
That was more disturbing for people than anything else.
You made that lady shave her hair.
She shaved her hair.
brian redban
Didn't you make somebody get a tattoo also?
joe rogan
No, they wouldn't do it.
They quit.
brian redban
That's right.
joe rogan
They had to get a Fear Factor tattoo and a tattoo of me.
unidentified
That's right.
jim florentine
Really?
joe rogan
Yep.
And that got approved by NBC, which is ridiculous.
And they wanted to do it at the bottom of their feet, but you can't do it because of...
Sanity, you know, hygiene reasons when you step on things.
If you have a sore like that at the bottom of your foot, it risks pretty severe infection possibilities.
But they did that.
NBC said they could have the tattoo.
And the other thing that NBC said was that they could drink piss.
They drank piss, too.
They drank donkey piss and donkey cum.
Or was it cow piss and donkey cum?
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
jim florentine
Who's real cum was that in there?
joe rogan
Donkey cum.
jim florentine
Who's real cum was that?
unidentified
Oh, the producers, Vine, everybody on the street.
joe rogan
We just pull over and ask people to jerk off.
It was so ridiculous.
It was such a huge vat of cum that they had, too.
They would pour into these glasses.
And here's the thing, like, your best case scenario in this game, the best you could do, you would have to drink five ounces.
Absolutely.
Absolutely have to drink five ounces.
Because they're playing horseshoes.
So if you fucking got a ringer, you nailed it.
It's not even, like, if you nail it, you don't have to drink.
No, even if you nail it, you have to drink five ounces.
Just crazy.
brian redban
Was it refrigerated or was it like warm temperature?
joe rogan
No, you'd have to refrigerate it.
jim florentine
Yeah, you want to serve that chilled.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's how I feel.
At least you can pretend it's something else.
If it's hot, it's going down your throat.
You know exactly what it is.
brian redban
It's like a latte, though.
A little hot latte.
jim florentine
Nah, it's better.
joe rogan
I don't know what you're putting in your lattes, but you need to stop right now or you're going to get pregnant.
jim florentine
It's just like tequila.
You want a chilled.
It's a lot easier going down chilled.
joe rogan
It's all psychological, though.
Because it's like...
It's cum, right?
It's salty, liquid, like snot.
Like when you swallow snot.
It's all psychological.
The actual taste of snot, it's not the worst thing in the world.
I'm sure there's a lot of things that taste way worse than snot.
Or cum.
jim florentine
But a chick that swallows got a big advantage.
joe rogan
The girls were saying that.
It was hilarious.
They were like, I'll take the cum.
The girl took the cum over the piss.
I go, really?
And she goes, yeah, what's the big deal?
I was like, wow, what a trooper you are.
jim florentine
I know.
joe rogan
She took the cum.
She's like, it'll be easier.
I've swallowed cum before.
We didn't have any of that on TV, obviously.
But they were laughing about it.
They're like, I've swallowed before.
This will be easy.
Fine.
And I was like, wow.
I guess a guy would probably...
If there was some sort of a squirting thing that pigs did, and you could collect that...
And a guy had to choose between drinking that stuff or something else.
You would go with the squirty stuff, because it's like, it's coming out of a girl's vagina.
It's just like, girl cum, no big deal.
As long as it's a girl.
But I think that's how the girls looked at it when they thought about this, the idea...
unidentified
Look at those girls drink that cum!
joe rogan
Yeah, that's cum, dude.
Oh my god.
Oh my god, they drank a mug.
I like how they're plugging their nose while they're drinking cum.
Look at that guy chug cum.
That guy just chug cum.
Oh my goodness.
Okay, well, how is that?
So Fear Factor's released that, then?
brian redban
Oh, no, no.
joe rogan
If it's edited as Fear Factor Moments.
brian redban
Yeah, something happened about six months ago.
Fear Factor's Facebook page just started posting brand new videos and, like, new advertisements and stuff.
He has the shit that come out.
jim florentine
I love how Joe's right in her face.
Come on, fucking do it already.
Be a trooper.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
I still, to this day, I go back and I watch this and I can't believe it really happened.
brian redban
Didn't you have a guy named Brian that tested everything before that they had to test it?
joe rogan
No, there was a bunch of guys, but Josh Silverman, he was the B-stunt producer.
He produced it.
He had done a bunch of different crazy shows.
He actually had been on a reality show.
He's on Ted Nugent's reality show at one point in time as a contestant.
jim florentine
Really?
joe rogan
But that guy was nuts.
And he was getting dark.
Like, his mind was getting very dark from all of the coming up with the different stunts for these people, like, figuring out different ways to get people to fucking pull, like, bison hearts out of a swimming pool filled with blood.
Like, they kept coming up with more and more fucked up things.
And I was like, this has got to be bad for your brain.
Like, this is your job.
And he was like, totally.
It's definitely not good.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
It was like, it's not good to think about this kind of stuff all the time.
That's why they came up with this drinking cum thing, I think.
I think they got so lost, they didn't realize how insane this is going to be to the rest of the world.
They were like, look, they gave us the green light.
Let's do it.
We're going to push the envelope.
Let's push the envelope.
All right, we're going to do lunch on Tuesday.
And the network and the executive would high-five each other.
They were so out of touch.
They had no idea that the rest of the world was going to go, you made people drink cum on TV. Even drinking piss.
Just making people drink piss is probably enough to get the show canceled.
But the fact that there was piss and cum together, the network is like, what did we do?
What happened here?
brian redban
They should bring it back, but put it on Netflix, uncensored, and make it the grossest of gross.
joe rogan
Well, I'm not doing it.
I'm done.
brian redban
Like eating yeast infections.
joe rogan
I'll never do it again.
Can you see a yeast infection?
brian redban
Oh, yeah.
It's creamy.
joe rogan
A lens.
brian redban
Oh, no, it's creamy.
It comes out creamy.
joe rogan
That's just excretion.
It comes out.
unidentified
He's scooping it.
brian redban
Oh, I've had it.
joe rogan
He's scooping it up like he's making pizza.
brian redban
I've had it curdled.
joe rogan
He's working dough.
brian redban
Chunky.
jim florentine
You've had it curdled?
brian redban
I mean, I've pulled out my dick and it's been like chunks of white yeast all over it.
joe rogan
That's not good.
Again, the quality of the company that you keep is reflected in many shitty decisions that you've made in this crazy life.
What's wrong with you, boy?
brian redban
She had diabetes.
joe rogan
She had diabetes and that affects your vagina?
brian redban
Oh yeah, you get yeast infections all day.
joe rogan
That makes sense, I guess.
Your whole body's out of whack.
They say a lot of issues that people have with various bacterial levels and things like that could be mitigated with just probiotics.
That if people took probiotics all the time, there'd be less yeast infections, a lot less bacterial issues.
jim florentine
Yeah, a lot of aloe.
Drinking aloe, that helps.
joe rogan
Do you eat healthy during quarantine?
jim florentine
Yeah, I take probiotics every day.
joe rogan
You look healthy as fuck.
jim florentine
I just lost 25 pounds.
unidentified
Did you?
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
What'd you do?
jim florentine
Went on a juice fast.
Well, I got a divorce, so that helps, yeah.
13 days, no food.
joe rogan
Comics with divorces, that's rare.
Usually it works out.
jim florentine
It does, I know.
joe rogan
It's like when a comic's happily married, he goes, is he okay?
What's wrong with him?
unidentified
Is he alright?
Is he still funny?
jim florentine
Dice came at my wedding and he goes...
First of all, he goes, look.
He goes, look at all your friends here.
He goes, they're all a bunch of fucking creeps.
I don't know where these people work.
He goes, here, take us.
He just handed me a water cash.
He goes, I'm not even going to leave an envelope because somebody's going to steal it.
Put this in your pocket now.
And then he goes, look, your wife's lovely and this is a great day for you guys, but just know one day she's going to hate your guts.
joe rogan
He was right.
Did they think...
You're a wild man.
You're always doing stand-up, you keep crazy friends.
Do you date girls and think they could change you?
Is it one of those things where, like, he's a smart guy.
He's really nice.
I just think that if I just get ahold of, you know, we'll work it out.
jim florentine
No.
Because I always went after the crazy ones.
I never went after a normal one.
You probably should have.
No, pretty much.
Nah, I mean, you know.
No, I didn't.
I always liked the wild ones, so they weren't looking to tame anybody.
brian redban
How do you find a normal person?
You can't even find a normal person out here.
joe rogan
Well, normal people are not going to find you, first of all.
Where are you going?
You're going to the Comedy Store.
You're going to a bar.
brian redban
We should just hang out at Applebee's.
jim florentine
They got weekends off, you know, they work 9 to 5, and you're working weekends, you never get to see them.
That's when they want to hang with their friends and go to, like, fucking Applebee's or some shit.
joe rogan
The other thing is that, as a comic, your hours are so fucked and your lifestyle is so crazy that unless the girl is living some sort of a crazy life of her own, she's not going to understand...
brian redban
Like a stripper.
That's why they have, like, the same hours.
joe rogan
Exactly.
Well, a lot of comics wind up dating strippers for a bunch of reasons, but that's a big one of them.
It's just that...
Some girls are like, you're out every night.
I've had friends that I've lost.
They don't do stand-up anymore because their wife got upset.
They were out too much doing stand-up.
And if you're going to be a good comic, you have to work a lot.
You have to work every week.
You might be able to take weeks off here and there, but essentially you're working several days a week, every week, and you're doing it at night, and you've got to write, and you've got to work on new shit, and you've got to constantly be in that zone, and you've got to go to the clubs.
You have to.
If you don't do it, you're not going to develop material.
So if you're dating someone, they're like, I don't understand.
You're not even getting paid for this.
You're getting like $15.
Fuck.
No, I'm working.
Where do you think these jokes come from?
They don't come from the fucking joke fairy.
These bitches need to grow.
I've got to go water the garden.
You know, that's what you do.
You go to the comedy store on a Tuesday night, you're watering the garden.
What the fuck are you doing?
jim florentine
Yeah, a lot of people can't get that concept.
Working for food or just not working at all during the week, doing sets.
They want to hang out, watch a movie, it's Tuesday night.
joe rogan
Yeah, and they're mad at you.
jim florentine
Or a TV show.
Like, you're going to go out there for free?
How many people are going to be there?
Four people?
Is that worth it?
They don't get it.
joe rogan
Those conversations used to be so frustrating to me.
But I get it from the girl's point of view.
She wants a normal life.
People want a normal life.
They want someone who's going to be home on normal daytime hours.
They don't want some guy who's calling him from the road because he did ecstasy.
It's just, they want shit to be normal.
I get it.
But strippers don't.
So, like, if you're, unless she really wants to settle down and be normal, and she's just, she's in the last days of stripping.
Like, this is it.
I'm almost 30. I'm so tired of this.
It's such bullshit.
Meet one of those.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
But you got a wild 24-year-old?
Jesus Christ.
jim florentine
Forget it.
Yeah.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ, Tim Florentine.
brian redban
That's why I think Camgirls is the way of the future, because when you're out at the comedy club, they could be squirting at home, you know, and then you just have like a...
joe rogan
You're still committed to that squirting thing.
It is pee.
It's been proven.
No, it's been proven scientifically that it's pee.
They have actual studies now.
Tony Hinchcliffe makes fun of you in his act.
brian redban
Actually, it's completely wrong.
joe rogan
Oh, Scientist Brian's here, ladies and gentlemen.
Forget all the retarded shit he said during the past two hours.
He's just going to clear things up now with his intelligence and knowledge of squirting.
brian redban
When Vice did the article about squirting being pee.
joe rogan
A lot of people did.
brian redban
I know, but it's the same base thing that even when we had what's-his-face in here the other day, he even goes, no, I get what you're saying.
There is two different kinds.
Have you ever had sex with a girl, and after you're done, there's a humongous water spot on your blanket?
That's squirting.
That's gushing.
That's what I'm talking about.
What those reports are talking about when it's shooting out, projecting, that's pee.
That's obviously pee.
It's coming out of the pee hole.
But gushing...
unidentified
Shut the fuck up.
joe rogan
Get the fuck up.
brian redban
Gushing is what I'm talking about.
Some girls you can hit a certain part of their G-spot and you'll feel like a flood come out.
And that is not pee.
And even Dr. Drew says it.
A lot of people even say it.
joe rogan
Dr. Drew says it.
Dr. Drew also says pot is addictive.
brian redban
He said that a long time ago.
unidentified
Dr. Drew's got a lot of problems.
joe rogan
You let him go now because you're on his side when it comes to squirting.
brian redban
That's what it is.
joe rogan
He used to be anti-Dr.
Drew when it came to weed, but squirting to him is more important than weed.
Squirting is his Bigfoot.
He will fucking argue with you if you tell him squirting is not real.
Squirting is the Loch Ness Monster.
Squirting is his UFOs.
brian redban
You know who thinks squirting is fake?
joe rogan
Squirting is your Jesus.
brian redban
People that can't make girls squirt.
joe rogan
Yeah, they can't do it.
They don't even know how.
They don't know how to get them to drink a gallon of water and piss all over you.
brian redban
You can feel it.
joe rogan
You know, man.
I just know.
It's like when Jesus touches me.
I can't describe it, bro.
I just feel it.
jim florentine
You're saying every girl can squirt like you can make any girl squirt?
brian redban
I think most girls can squirt.
Yeah.
joe rogan
They drink a lot of water, hold it in, wait for Brian to finger them, piss all over them.
brian redban
What I'm saying is real, but...
joe rogan
Sure, like a UFO fanatic.
brian redban
And I think most guys have had that experience when you're with a girl and you're like, holy shit, you were really wet this time, and you look down and there's a huge wet spot.
That's what I'm talking about.
joe rogan
Well, yeah, girls have vaginal, vaginal, rather, lubricant comes out of their body.
Some girls are wet.
But it doesn't ever squirt out.
It doesn't ever squirt out like those videos where girls are going just fucking pissing all over the camera.
brian redban
Right.
That's the problem.
jim florentine
That's Pete.
That's Pete.
brian redban
Obviously, that's Pete.
joe rogan
Brian, you, like a slippery politician, have changed your stance.
brian redban
No, I've never changed my stance.
joe rogan
Because you used to say that the spray was a different type.
brian redban
I've never said that.
It was different than I've never said that.
joe rogan
Well, the court would please bring up the last podcast where squirting was discussed and Brian angrily, yet again, defended the art of squirting.
brian redban
I've always said the exact same thing.
joe rogan
The practice of squirting.
No, you definitely said squirting is real, and now you're saying gushing is real.
brian redban
Squirting is the term, what you guys are calling it, squirting is...
joe rogan
In the business, you know, a lot of you, like, fucking pedestrians, you have your terms.
I know your term squirting.
And as pros, we refer to it as gushing.
It's gushing.
jim florentine
Yeah, she was a gusher.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brian redban
Right.
And that's what's confusing, what people think squirting is fake and stuff.
joe rogan
People are confused with a lot of things.
brian redban
When you have sex with a girl, sometimes it's a little wet, right?
But there's sometimes where you can feel it just pouring out of her, and it won't stop, and she's all over the place.
unidentified
She's going to melt.
joe rogan
She's going to be like the Wicked Witch of the West and melt in your fucking house.
brian redban
And if you were to take all that juice, throw it in a test tube, that's not pee.
joe rogan
Okay, scientist Brian, why don't you go perform these tests?
brian redban
I've heard many people talk about it, including Dr. Drew talked about it.
joe rogan
Bring up some facts.
brian redban
Dr. Drew about squirting.
joe rogan
Go Google that.
brian redban
I don't need to.
I already know about that.
I've talked about this a million times.
jim florentine
So it's girls cum, then.
brian redban
It's her.
It's a mixture of...
No, it's not.
joe rogan
But the scientists that have studied it say it's pee.
But how do you know?
You know, because I just know.
I don't need new fancy science.
brian redban
I don't have a computer in front of me.
joe rogan
I have Jesus in my heart.
jim florentine
Well, would you mind if it was pee?
unidentified
Huh?
brian redban
That's what we're trying to get at.
And that's another thing.
unidentified
That huh is the story of this whole conversation.
brian redban
And that's another thing, because I've actually had a girl gush or squirt or whatever while I was eating her out before.
joe rogan
So you had a girl pee in your mouth?
brian redban
It did not taste like pee.
joe rogan
Because he knows.
He's drinking a lot of pee.
He's basically a pee sommelier.
jim florentine
Well, because it was a mixture.
joe rogan
I have these hints of Cosmo Martinis.
brian redban
The girl's cum usually has hints of pee in it, but it's not urine.
joe rogan
Okay, and what about oak?
Tannins.
All the stuff they find from those aged barrels.
He gets mad!
brian redban
I'm not getting mad, it's just that...
joe rogan
You do definitely get upset when it comes to the topic of squirting.
You defend it like it's a religious thing.
brian redban
Well, because people are so confused about it.
joe rogan
They are super confused.
As a matter of fact, they're giving a lot of university-level courses on it because there's so much confusion.
About whether or not squirting is pee.
brian redban
No, what you see in porn is usually water that's been put up there or urine, like you said.
But that's not what I'm fucking talking about.
I'm talking about there's ways that you can hit the G-spot with your dick and make the girl gush.
joe rogan
Yeah.
jim florentine
I don't know.
I don't think too many people bother.
joe rogan
They didn't squirt even a little in the old porns.
What were they doing differently?
Did they not know what they were doing back then?
Tell me, Ron Jeremy didn't know how to lay some dick out?
brian redban
No, that's fake.
That's what I'm saying is fake.
joe rogan
What are you talking about?
brian redban
I'm saying that the stuff that you see in porn that you guys think is squirting is water that has been put up there.
joe rogan
You guys, you dummies.
That's like you so-called Christians.
He's like a religious fanatic over there.
jim florentine
I don't think most people care.
joe rogan
He cares.
jim florentine
You could go, you know, this chick squirted last night.
You're like, that's actually pee.
You're like, oh, really?
And that's it.
unidentified
Not him.
jim florentine
Not him.
joe rogan
What?
unidentified
Huh?
jim florentine
That it was in my mouth.
All right, well, whatever.
I drank pee.
brian redban
She was fucking hot.
I'll collect some gush.
joe rogan
You're going to need rubber gloves.
You're going to need a chain of command, chain of custody.
You've got to scrape it up.
You have a guy there in a sealed envelope.
Take it to the lab.
I don't know what the fuck you're going to do with it on the way to the airport.
jim florentine
Hopefully she doesn't have a yeast infection at the same time.
Exactly.
joe rogan
Fuck with the studies.
brian redban
Frothy.
unidentified
Frothy.
brian redban
Gosh.
joe rogan
Definitely need to go back smoking cigarettes.
I'll tell you that.
brian redban
Why?
joe rogan
Because your brain...
What happened over the last few days is shocking.
brian redban
But what I've been saying right now is so accurate and...
It really is.
joe rogan
The fact that you are actually defending squirting.
The fact that I could troll you so hard that I could just...
Just all I have to say is squirting is pee and you will go into a fucking frothy panic.
Look at you.
brian redban
No, I'm not getting into a panic.
It's just that people...
joe rogan
Very defensive.
brian redban
It's annoying when people go...
joe rogan
It's annoying when people insult my Jesus.
brian redban
Dude, squirting is not real.
It's like, alright.
joe rogan
Well, guess what?
A lot of that's coming your way today, fella.
jim florentine
I know.
What's your Twitter handle?
brian redban
Redband.
joe rogan
R-E-D-B-A-N. They're going to give you a lot of fucking medical studies on piss.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
The various properties of piss.
It's gushing, guys.
Guys I don't even know.
You're such amateurs.
You don't even know how to make a girl gush.
jim florentine
So you can make every girl?
brian redban
Not every girl, but I could make a lot of girls because of the shape of my dick.
jim florentine
What's wrong with it?
brian redban
It's pointed towards my face, so it's kind of bent towards my face.
And if you put a girl's legs up between your shoulders...
joe rogan
Don't make me throw up before the end of this podcast.
We're about to end soon.
jim florentine
So you've got to put it over your legs?
brian redban
Yeah, usually...
jim florentine
Over your shoulders?
brian redban
Herds, like over, yeah.
jim florentine
And it's got to bend up.
brian redban
Well, I don't know if it has to bend up, but I'm just saying that that's why I think I've had such great success.
joe rogan
You should give seminars.
brian redban
I just did.
joe rogan
No, you just explained it.
You should give seminars where you walk around people, tell them, no, you've got to get your hips over here, like a yoga class.
Wait down here.
jim florentine
Or he looks at every guy's dick.
Nope, doesn't end up.
You ain't gonna do it.
joe rogan
You have to break your dick.
jim florentine
I could take your money, but you're not gonna be able to do it.
brian redban
No, as a young age, you could just put it underneath your belt buckle and it will grow that way around your belly.
So every time you have a boner, just put it straight up north.
joe rogan
He's 40. He's a grown man.
jim florentine
That reminds me of a Brady Bunch episode where Bobby wanted to be taller, so he hung from the swing set.
unidentified
Did he?
jim florentine
Through his arms, yeah.
Because he wanted to be taller.
I remember that episode.
That's what it has to put under the belt buckle.
So it stays up.
brian redban
But your belly is a natural bend.
joe rogan
No, but the Brady Bunch wasn't real.
jim florentine
I know.
joe rogan
He's a real person.
He really fucking believes you're going to change the shape of your dick by tucking it in your balls.
jim florentine
You know what?
I'm wearing a belt right now.
I'm going to do it on the right.
joe rogan
Wrap it up.
Tie it in a knot.
Maybe get one of those real soft belts.
jim florentine
Yeah, I'm looking for a squirter.
brian redban
I've had some pretty good squirters.
joe rogan
Okay, buddy.
Alright, let's wrap this up.
brian redban
Belly button.
joe rogan
Thanks for showing up.
You're the best.
Jim Florentine, what's going on, man?
Where's the website at?
What's JimFlorentine.com?
jim florentine
JimFlorentine.com, yeah.
joe rogan
And it's Mr. Jim Florentine on Twitter.
jim florentine
Mr. Jim Florentine on Twitter.
I'm going to be Amy Schumer's new movie.
joe rogan
Oh my goodness.
unidentified
Coming out the 17th.
What is this?
jim florentine
July 17th.
joe rogan
What's the movie?
jim florentine
Trainwreck.
joe rogan
Oh, what is it?
jim florentine
It's a comedy, her movie with Judd Apatow, director.
joe rogan
Okay, cool.
jim florentine
I just got a little part in it.
joe rogan
Beautiful.
jim florentine
But I didn't get caught because people have seen it and said it's a good scene, so.
joe rogan
Excellent.
Cool.
jim florentine
And then I just did an episode of Louie, so.
joe rogan
Nice.
jim florentine
Recently.
joe rogan
Nice.
And you got any comedy club dates coming up?
jim florentine
Just this Wednesday night.
joe rogan
Alright, Wednesday night.
jim florentine
Comedy store.
joe rogan
We'll all be at the comedy store.
jim florentine
And then Baltimore at the end of the month.
joe rogan
Hopefully Brian will be smoking by then.
We'll get the old Brian back.
Or take him to a doctor.
brian redban
Alright, I'll smoke.
joe rogan
No, don't do it.
jim florentine
And I got a podcast too.
joe rogan
Yes, what is it?
jim florentine
Comedy Metal Midgets.
Jim Florentine.
joe rogan
Metal Midgets or Mental?
jim florentine
Metal.
joe rogan
Metal.
Comedy Metal Midgets.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Those three things in that order.
jim florentine
Yeah, I just, it had a nice ring to it.
joe rogan
Dude, I forgot to talk to you about this one dude, I'll ask you off the air, but your friend who lives in Florida, some crazy friend, I was listening to your radio show.
jim florentine
Oh, Gary from Florida.
joe rogan
Is that the nutty dude who fucks all these girls and has all these ridiculous stories?
jim florentine
Yeah, fucks them in the ass the first night, cooks them a chicken marsala, and then fucks them in the ass.
joe rogan
Were you talking to him or were you talking about him?
I don't remember.
It was on the radio show.
But I sat in my car out here in this parking lot.
I was laughing like a mental patient.
jim florentine
I was just with him this past weekend.
He's insane.
He goes on these dating websites and gets these girls.
He started when he was 35. He put in from 40 to 65 because he goes, no one at 35 wants to fuck those women.
I will.
He's like, I'm not going after a 22-year-old.
So some 52-year-old in Florida, single, you know, with big tits, divorced, tan, take him out one date.
They go, look, just feed me and fuck me.
joe rogan
Wow.
jim florentine
And he's like, first night, right in the ass.
joe rogan
Whoa.
jim florentine
Eight out of ten times.
joe rogan
8 out of 10 times?
jim florentine
8 out of 10. Wow.
He looks like a bloated Tony Danza, like, you know.
So it works for him.
And they're like, wow, a 35-year-old wants to fuck a 52-year-old.
So he's got that market.
joe rogan
That's smart.
jim florentine
Oh, yeah.
He's always been like that.
Leave a message.
I just fucked a 64-year-old.
Because she wanted to be in bed by 8, so I'm going back out trying to get another one.
joe rogan
Oh my god, that is so bizarre.
That's a smart move, though.
If you want numbers, you want to put up numbers.
jim florentine
That's all he cared about was numbers.
He's like, look, I gotta get Hall of Fame numbers.
That's all I'm looking for.
joe rogan
And do these women get attached to him?
jim florentine
No, they don't care.
joe rogan
They want dick?
jim florentine
It's Florida, they don't care.
joe rogan
They don't care because Florida?
jim florentine
Yeah, Florida, it's a whole other animal down there.
They don't give a shit.
They move from one to another to another.
Really?
Yeah, he might go see him one more time and they don't even bother him after that.
unidentified
Really?
jim florentine
Especially an older woman.
They're just setting their ways.
They're like, look, I just want to get laid.
joe rogan
Right.
I can get that.
Like, they're not looking for a man anymore.
jim florentine
No, they just...
joe rogan
They're just gonna come along, tell him what to do.
jim florentine
Yeah.
They go, look, man, I'm horny.
It's been a while.
unidentified
Wow.
jim florentine
A lot of times he'd try to do it without even getting dinner.
Yeah, he's like, let me see.
He'd try to pull that one off, just meet him for a drink.
joe rogan
Right.
jim florentine
His move was never to go, let's meet at 6. It was always like 8.30, so you didn't have to buy him dinner.
He's like, they're definitely going to eat by then.
joe rogan
So he had a strategy for saving money?
jim florentine
Yeah, I'm like, Gary, I mean, you're banging her in the ass the first night.
You probably could buy her a dinner.
It's worth it.
It's worth a $150 dinner.
joe rogan
Was it because he didn't want to take a chance of being stuck at dinner, or was he trying to save money?
jim florentine
Save money and just be a complete dirtbag.
That's the only reason.
joe rogan
Because you get stuck in a horrible conversation.
If you commit to dinner, and as you just met this person, and like five minutes into the conversation, you realize they're fucking crazy.
Like, oh no, I'm going to have a meal with this person?
Shit.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
Then you just got to find the waiter.
I'll be right back.
You got to find the waiter, give the waiter money, and get the fuck out of Dodge before they even know what hit them.
Just walk out the front door.
Run.
brian redban
Yeah, but what if you drove?
I had that problem with that meth head chick a couple weeks ago.
joe rogan
You drive.
If she drove, you got a problem.
brian redban
Yeah.
joe rogan
Well, even then, you just get an Uber.
You live in the new world.
It's the new world, Jim Florence.
jim florentine
Yeah, you don't have to worry about that crap.
Well, he would just meet him for a drink, and then he figured if it was going to work, hey, let's go back.
Always by his house, close by, within a mile.
Hey, let's go back to my place.
We'll have another one.
joe rogan
But if he goes to his place, then he's got to get him out.
jim florentine
Yeah.
They always want to leave right afterwards.
They don't want to stay.
That's hilarious.
I know.
joe rogan
So they're just different.
It's just a different animal.
jim florentine
Different animal.
joe rogan
That a woman is trying to carve out a relationship.
Maybe Jim Florentine is the one.
Maybe I could settle down with Jim Florentine and have some babies.
Instead of that, she's like, nope.
Nope.
I just want some dick.
I'm 50. I just want someone to fuck me in my mouth and then get out of the house.
jim florentine
Pretty much.
My nephew just moved to Florida.
He's 27. I mean, he is cleaning up down there.
I said, you've got to put up like Coors Field numbers.
You know what I mean?
Like in Coors Field and baseball, because of the quality air, the balls just fly out of there.
The numbers are just skewered.
He's almost like he's on roids.
joe rogan
Right, because of the altitude in Denver?
unidentified
Yeah, absolutely.
jim florentine
I said, when people look back at your baseball car from New Jersey to Florida, they go, all right, he was definitely doing roids.
unidentified
Yeah.
jim florentine
What was going on in these years?
He goes, no, I lived in Florida.
Oh, okay.
Then he wasn't doing roids.
joe rogan
Yeah, Florida's the party state.
jim florentine
It's insane.
joe rogan
Those Florida Man Twitter notices, have you ever seen those?
brian redban
No, but Burt Kreiser.
joe rogan
The page?
Yeah, Burt Kreiser's from Florida.
But Florida Man is a page on Twitter.
And if you go to Florida Man on the Twitter feed, it's all news stories about a guy from Florida doing something retarded.
It's a different part of the world, man.
It's a completely different part of the world.
So if you're a guy who looks like a bloated Tony Danza Bloated Tony Danza.
You're just cleaning up on the girls who've made these terrible mistakes in the decades past, and now they're just kind of like settled in.
Settled in, settled in their ways, but still get horny.
jim florentine
In my 20s, I moved down there because I wanted to get laid.
joe rogan
Wow.
You moved down there specifically because you wanted to get laid.
jim florentine
I moved down in high school.
I finally moved down.
I lived there for two years, and I made a couple friends, and then a couple years later, I went down there just to visit them, and I banged like three chicks in a week.
I'm like, I didn't even have three under my belt my whole life.
unidentified
That's hilarious.
jim florentine
And then, like six months later, I go, you know what, I'm just moving down there just so I can get laid.
And that's why it was the only thing.
joe rogan
Now, what do you think it is?
Because it's such a transient state?
Because that's a big part of what Florida is, like people from the East Coast that just move down there.
jim florentine
Yeah, because you always get them in that wild phase for a couple years, where they just go, I want to get away from my family, I just want to go have fun, and I want to try it down here.
So you get those girls in that phase, and then eventually they move back to wherever they are, usually.
joe rogan
Yeah.
jim florentine
And a lot of like, you know, it's a weird state because there's a lot of white trash and there's hot chicks in Miami and there's rednecks all over.
It's a weird, super weird state.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's a weird state too because for the longest time it was how immigrants got into the country from Cuba and how they brought drugs in through Miami.
So South Florida was just chaos.
And then northern Florida is basically Kentucky.
You know, you're basically living in the deep, deep south in northern Florida.
The further north you get, the more southern United States you actually get.
Like Florida, like the south of Florida, doesn't even seem like the south.
You know, it's more like some weird fucking offshoot of Long Island.
jim florentine
Yeah, absolutely.
Miami, Fort Lauderdale, all that stuff, West Palm Beach, rich area.
joe rogan
It's like Long Island meets...
The Caribbean.
Or Long Island meets Cuba.
You know, that's what it's like.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's just like this weird fucking, just people that just had to get the fuck out of Dodge and came down.
Nutty-ass fucking town to do comedy, too.
jim florentine
Oh, yeah, I was just down there in Miami.
joe rogan
Did you stand up?
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
Where were you working?
jim florentine
There's a place called the Home Field Comedy Club.
I guess it used to be an improv.
It's in Kendall.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah?
jim florentine
Yeah, it was a good room.
I mean, it's part of a sports bar.
They don't...
It's not like...
But they got their own back room and stuff where they do comedy.
It holds like 300 people.
joe rogan
That's cool.
jim florentine
Yeah, it was pretty good.
joe rogan
What are you doing over there, little child?
brian redban
What?
Why my child?
joe rogan
Because you're playing with your phone while we're doing a podcast.
brian redban
Oh, sorry.
unidentified
Pfft!
joe rogan
I can't believe I spell it out.
brian redban
I was just putting a Wednesday show at the Comedy Store in my calendar.
joe rogan
Oh, thank you.
Do you still go back to where you grew up?
Do you do any stand-up where you...
Where'd you grow up?
jim florentine
I grew up in Jersey.
joe rogan
Do you do stand-up near the area where you grew up?
jim florentine
Yeah, I mean, the Stress Factory.
You know the Stress Factory in New Brunswick?
joe rogan
Right.
jim florentine
It was a comedy club.
That's kind of where I started.
joe rogan
That's a great spot.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
New Brunswick's great, too, because it's a cool town.
Cool town right next to Rutgers, you know?
jim florentine
I just filmed a comedy special there a few months back.
joe rogan
At Vinnie Brand's place?
jim florentine
No, George Street Playhouse.
It's a theater, like a 400-seat theater.
joe rogan
Oh, cool.
jim florentine
I just did it there.
joe rogan
That's a good place to do it.
jim florentine
Yeah, I couldn't do it at Vinnie's place.
I didn't want the comedy club feel.
I wanted more like a theater feel for it.
joe rogan
Yeah, I started doing my last one I did in a comedy club and I think I'm gonna do them in a comedy club from now on I think that doing them in a theater you just don't you lose something and a large large stage Yeah, and I feel like people at home you're watching you're in a living room You know it's an intimate spot like you I think you could relate more to someone on stage in front of like a couple hundred people than you know, maybe a thousand I think the model was to get it sold to a Netflix or a Showtime and HBO. They wanted it to look big.
jim florentine
But now you can do it all on your own.
It doesn't matter.
joe rogan
As long as it's good, I don't think it matters.
I'm also thinking from now on that it doesn't matter about edits and shit like that.
I think you should have one camera.
One camera that's in the center of the room, above the crowd, catches the first couple rows of the crowd and you.
And that's it.
Nothing moving around.
Just one clear shot of what you're doing.
Just like watching it in a comedy club.
Because I think that all this like cutting it from the side and all this fancy shit they're doing with editing It doesn't exist when you go to see a comedy show and when you go to see a comedy show Like it's the funniest thing you'll ever see in your life is a comic on stage killing in a comedy club You're in the back of the room and you're just watching and laughing and you're just looking right at it There's no crazy angles.
There's no weird cuts.
There's no shots of the audience laughing all that stuff's unnatural.
jim florentine
Yeah Yeah, mine I only had like the first two rows.
I said, go to them maybe two or three times the whole show.
That's it.
I wanted it dark.
Yeah, they wanted that.
I'm like, I don't need that.
They can hear the laughs.
And you know what?
People at home know if they want to laugh or not.
I don't need a laugh track.
joe rogan
Yeah, they like to light up that audience.
They light up the audience, and that's weird because everybody gets like self-conscious.
jim florentine
Yeah, that's always the worst.
joe rogan
That's a weird style that they have of doing these comedy specials.
They have this set up at the Irvine Improv.
Have you done that place yet?
The new place?
jim florentine
No, I haven't done the new one.
joe rogan
It's fucking amazing.
I was just there last weekend.
They have it set up for a comedy special.
So when you're in the green room, if you're watching, you can watch on TV just the camera they have.
You're like, holy shit, that's perfect.
That's all you need.
Like, the one camera they have that catches the entire stage that you're on, like, the camera can follow you, they can move it a little bit if you go left or right, and that's all you need.
It's really, it's set up perfect.
jim florentine
Yeah, I mean, it seems like, you know, the comedy specials used to cost like a quarter million to shoot.
That was basically the number you needed to raise or whatever.
Now you can do it for...
Fucking 15 grand, 10 grand.
And it can look amazing.
It's in the last, like, three or four years.
joe rogan
What changed?
jim florentine
The cameras.
And just, you know, you don't have to rent out the biggest theater somewhere.
The Wiltern or whatever, you know, where it's going to cost a ton of money and hire a real big crew and all that stuff and have seven different cameras.
I think you could do it.
Everything's getting cheaper and cheaper.
joe rogan
Yeah, Hinchcliffe did his entire show.
He did it with one shot, one camera, follows him into the club, follows him on stage, pans of him on stage.
The whole thing was shot with one camera.
brian redban
Joe, remember when I used to go on the road with you and I would have two cameras on the sides, one camera in the middle, and then I would just have a camera that would walk around and do zoom-ins.
And that right there, it was a whole special, a comedy special.
joe rogan
That's all you need, really.
I think they over-engineer those fucking things.
They really do.
They do have boom mics.
I've seen people have boom mics.
They scan the entire crowd and get up to the stage.
Like, what are you doing?
That just takes away from what this guy's talking about.
jim florentine
Yeah, next one I'm going to do in a comedy club.
joe rogan
I want to, yeah.
jim florentine
A small little theater, like, you know, a little space, maybe in New York, 200 seats, something like that.
joe rogan
Yeah, I think that's the future.
Like, Louis C.K. did his thing at the Comedy Store.
He did his last one in the main room.
That was great.
That's kind of a big room, too.
The main room's kind of big because it's got, like, a high ceiling.
That's a very unusual club in the sense that it seems a lot bigger than it really is.
It's only, like, 300 people, right?
brian redban
Yeah.
Yeah, 300, 350, I think, if they pack it in there.
joe rogan
But it seems less intimate than a lot of rooms that are that size.
Like, there's a lot of comedy clubs that have 300 people that seem like way more packed in.
That's such an old-school showroom, you know, with the big giant stage and everything.
jim florentine
The lights.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's like as old-school as it gets, that place.
But, yeah, doing those, like, you feel like you're there, you know, doing something at the store, doing something at the ice house.
You feel like you're there.
If you're watching a guy on stage at Madison Square Garden, you know, you can enjoy it, but you don't really, I don't think you ever really feel like you're there.
jim florentine
I think that Kevin Hart's going to do, he's doing, financial field is what Eagles play, a stadium.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
jim florentine
And I think that's going to be his next special.
joe rogan
Oh, isn't he doing like 60,000 people?
jim florentine
Yeah, 60,000 people.
joe rogan
That's insane.
Well, he has a crazy show, though.
He doesn't do just stand-up.
He has, like, explosions.
He has pyrotechnics.
Like, he hits punchlines and a fire goes off behind him and shit.
He has, like, a screen that changes behind him.
Like, he'll start talking about a place where he was at and then the screen behind him will be of that place.
jim florentine
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah, it's a pretty sophisticated setup, apparently.
He has a whole group of employees that are a road team that have to set up a stage.
That's not a small production.
That's a fucking Major League production, what he's doing.
jim florentine
So he's like the kiss of stand-up.
joe rogan
Yeah, for sure.
Well, definitely no one has ever sold more tickets than that guy.
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
In comedy.
That guy sold out the Boston Garden two shows on a Sunday night.
On a Sunday night.
I believe it was Sunday.
I'm pretty sure.
But either way, two shows in a night at the Boston Garden, that's fucking crazy.
That's like 30,000 people.
I mean, I've never heard of anybody doing that.
He's probably...
It used to be probably it was Dice, and then it was Dane Cook.
And I think Kevin Hart has eclipsed both of them.
jim florentine
I think so, yeah.
There's 60,000 people at Financial Field.
joe rogan
But I heard that Larry the Cable Guy does numbers like that in the South.
That he did...
Josh Wolfe opened up for him and took a photo of the audience.
He was at a football stadium.
And Josh Wolfe's on stage, and he's taking a selfie of...
There's 50,000 fucking people behind him.
It's nuts.
He said that he'll do like football stadiums.
jim florentine
Yeah, I could see that.
He was, I guess, right before Dane, and then when Dane came, he kind of took the torch from him.
unidentified
And then Russell Peters, you've got to think of Russell Peters, too.
joe rogan
Yeah, Russell Peters, he kills it outside the country, but I don't think there's a place in America where he could do it that's like 50,000 people.
jim florentine
No, he's done Barclay Center in Brooklyn.
He sold that out, 20,000.
He's done The Garden before.
I don't know if he does two or three nights, but he's selling a lot of tickets.
He did two shows at The Garden in one night.
joe rogan
The Garden is such a crazy place for stand-up because you think about the Garden, you think about like great heavyweight title fights and shit like that.
jim florentine
I know.
joe rogan
Someone would be on stage at the Garden telling jokes.
Billy Joel's got the craziest gig.
He goes to the Garden once a month.
jim florentine
Once a month.
joe rogan
That's what he does.
Drives in, probably drives a motorcycle that crazy fuck, drives down to the Garden, gets on stage, kills it, has all these, all the old women that your friend fucks in Florida, they all fly up for that.
unidentified
Absolutely.
joe rogan
They're probably going off all over themselves.
What are you doing over there, Brian?
brian redban
I was trying to think of Steve Martin.
Didn't he used to sell out like arenas?
joe rogan
He did big places for sure.
Before he quit.
Before he quit, he did some large places.
But he hit that point, we've talked about this a bunch of times on the podcast, where he hit that point where he didn't know what was funny anymore because people laughed at anything he did.
He was Steve Martin.
You get out there, they were just so happy to see him.
Patton Oswalt has a fucking hilarious bit about, remember I told you about that casino I did north of Seattle and I got there was like the most drunk audience I've ever performed for in my fucking life.
I've never had more people heckle like at a big casino when they're spending a lot of money.
It was nuts.
It's called Tuulip and I was in my car, Tuulip?
Tuulip.
I was in my car just randomly.
I have Patton Oswalt's new comedy CD on my phone, and so randomly it was playing all these different things.
It would play a song, then it would play someone's bit.
I just put it on random.
And it played Patton Oswalt's bit about going to that fucking very same casino.
brian redban
No way!
joe rogan
I didn't even know he had a bid on it.
It's hilarious because I'm like, this is the place!
I could relate on such a level because I had fucking just worked there.
They pay a shitload of money too.
It's ridiculous how much money they pay.
And you go, wow, this is crazy.
They're paying a lot of money.
And it's like an hour outside of Seattle.
So you drive an hour from Seattle and then you get there.
And once the show starts, you realize exactly why they're paying you so much.
They're like, nobody wants to work here.
They have to pay you a lot of money to get you to deal with this crowd.
Maniacs.
The drunkest fucking people I've ever performed for.
But they were great.
jim florentine
Just heckling or no?
joe rogan
Oh yeah, a lot of heckling.
I barely got bits out.
I did an hour plus on stage, maybe an hour and ten.
I might have got two bits out.
Maybe three.
Maybe two.
brian redban
Who opened for you?
Tony?
joe rogan
Tony opened, yeah.
brian redban
How did he do?
joe rogan
Tony did well.
Was it Tony or was it Thompson?
No, I'm pretty sure it was Tony.
Yeah, he did great.
Tony's funny.
You know, he's got good jokes.
Tony's like, you know, he knows how to like...
brian redban
Well, that's his crowd too, the heckler, you know?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, for sure, if someone was heckling.
But they were good.
You know, I mean, they were just really fucking hammered.
I just think that a lot of those people that live out there, there's not a lot to do.
They just get fucked up.
jim florentine
Yeah, go to the casino, get messed up.
joe rogan
Yeah, that outside of Seattle area is very different than the Seattle area.
Like, people look at Washington State, they go, oh yeah, Seattle.
Well, sorta.
Go an hour outside of Seattle, and you've got that place where that Enum Claw, where that guy got fucked to death by the horse.
Well, they used to have no laws on whether or not people can have sex with animals, so people flocked to there and moved in, they started farms and filmed them fucking animals and having animals fuck them.
unidentified
Like, that's an hour outside of Seattle.
joe rogan
So, don't get it twisted.
Washington State's a crazy place.
It's got a lot of great spots in it, but it's a crazy place.
Seattle is not representative of most.
Like California.
Everybody thinks that LA is like California.
Okay, go to Bakersfield.
It's not that far away.
jim florentine
Yeah.
joe rogan
Take a drive.
unidentified
Take a drive, you know, up to some of the weird fucking spots near the mountains off the 118. I remember the first time, even when I went to Sacramento, when I landed at the airport, I'm like, what the fuck?
jim florentine
This is California?
joe rogan
Exactly.
Go to Fontana.
They used to call it Fontucky when we were doing Fairfactor out there.
Yeah.
Dude, I know there was a place nearby where a meth lab blew up in this guy's backyard.
Yeah, guy had a fucking meth lab in his backyard.
Normal, regular, everyday California community.
California, we think of California, everybody immediately thinks of like Beverly Hills, Hollywood.
Just drive an hour outside in any direction, you might as well be in Oklahoma, you know?
There's a lot of spots in California that are fucked up.
jim florentine
Wow.
joe rogan
That drive up to San Francisco where you go through all the agricultural towns.
unidentified
Whew.
joe rogan
If you're a kid, your mom shit you out in one of these towns, you gotta go to these local schools, and you're like, Jesus Christ, and you know, you're just a two-hour drive to L.A. If you could just get a car, just get a car, you could fucking end this nonsense.
So a moment in high school, the moment you get some freedom, your friend's got a fucking car, and you got a full tank of gas, let's do it, we're going into L.A., let's go to L.A., He'd drive down and wish you lived here.
See all the civilized people.
No dirt roads.
You just wish.
You wish you could be here.
So this funky fucking agricultural town with right-wing Republican billboards everywhere.
Everywhere you go, all these different Republican candidates for president and senator.
They're super right-wing up there.
And they're fighting over water now.
Now when you drive up there, it's all these things about water rights, like, you know, go to this website, check out this, we need, you know, we need to establish our water rights.
It's weird.
Almonds apparently suck up a bunch of it.
Can we just stop using almonds?
If we just, no almonds and no golf, how much water would we have?
Fuckload.
jim florentine
Almonds?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Almonds apparently takes a lot of water to make an almond.
Yeah.
I think it still wouldn't help though.
It would only help a little.
They say apparently this is the worst drought that California has ever on record.
And that we're four years into this fucked up drought.
That they need something like 11 trillion gallons of water just to break even.
And the unlikelihood of that happening.
brian redban
Pump it out of Houston.
They're about to get flooded tomorrow.
Again.
joe rogan
Yeah, right?
If they can pump oil out of Houston, why can't they pump water?
Because we don't use as much oil as we use water.
That's why.
I answer my own question.
All right, Jim Florentine, let's wrap this podcast up.
Anything else you want to say to the people?
jim florentine
No, that's it, man.
It was a pleasure doing the podcast.
joe rogan
It's a pleasure having you on, fella.
jim florentine
Absolutely, man.
joe rogan
Good to see you, buddy.
jim florentine
It's been a long time, yeah.
joe rogan
It has been a long time.
Mr. Jim Florentine on Twitter.
JimFlorentine.com, right?
Yeah.
Facebook, got all that jazz?
jim florentine
Yeah, all that shit.
joe rogan
Do you Periscope?
jim florentine
No.
joe rogan
No?
Well, Brian Redband does.
jim florentine
Yes.
joe rogan
Brian Redband has had 10,000 people watch him at once.
brian redban
That's great.
jim florentine
It's too much.
joe rogan
It's the highlight of his life.
jim florentine
It's too much.
I can't.
joe rogan
Can't do it?
jim florentine
Yeah.
Enough?
Yeah, I don't know.
Like I said, I'll wait for six months.
There'll be a new one, and I'll jump on that.
joe rogan
There will be, or Periscope will be undeniable.
brian redban
It'll be too late.
joe rogan
We'll be at the Comedy Store this Wednesday night.
There's a new material show at 8 o'clock, and then I'm doing that, and then I'm doing the show at 10 o'clock with these two fine gentlemen.
And then this weekend, Friday and Saturday, I'm at the Belly Room.
I'm in the Belly Room at the store with Ian Edwards.
Export Selection
