Speaker Time Text
joe rogan
When I'm driving around that Corvette, the Corvette doesn't have a radio.
It's one of the best things I've ever done.
Keep it old school?
Yeah, you know what?
Having no radio, when you drive around with no radio, Three, two, one, live!
Boom!
When I was young and I used to deliver newspapers, my car didn't have a radio.
And I used to come up with some of my best shit for stand-up comedy material.
With no radio, I'd just drive it around doing other things because I had to fold newspapers up and throw them out the window.
brendan schaub
I bet, man.
joe rogan
And when you have no radio, you're forced to think.
And when you're forced to think, you think about shit.
When you're forced to think about shit, you go, hmm.
It's like...
We're constantly distracted, man.
We want to look at our phone all the time.
unidentified
We want to...
joe rogan
See this podcast today, ladies and gentlemen?
No laptop.
I'm trying the new thing, Jamie.
brendan schaub
Nice.
joe rogan
No laptop.
I'm trying...
And then if...
I got Jamie here.
If I need to Google some shit...
brendan schaub
Boom.
That's what he's here for.
joe rogan
I probably should have tweeted.
It's about to start here.
I'll tweet it right now.
brendan schaub
That might help.
joe rogan
That might help a little bit.
brendan schaub
But, there you are.
joe rogan
Yeah, here I am, distracted.
Distracted.
Distracted.
brendan schaub
It's important, man.
I mean, in the car, you spend so much time in the car and you listen to music, it just took past time.
joe rogan
Exactly.
brendan schaub
I'm with you, man.
joe rogan
Well, one thing that's good, though, is podcasts and books on tape.
I do really enjoy doing that.
So I think that having the option is probably better, but the Corvette doesn't have a radio.
I like not having a radio.
I like sometimes just driving around, just...
Being alone with the thoughts, hearing the rumble of the engine, you know?
brendan schaub
If I had that engine, yes.
joe rogan
I agree.
Well, your engine is pretty fucking sweet sounding, too.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that's dope, but it's not that Corvette thing sounds so dope.
joe rogan
Well, it's a different kind of thing, but you wouldn't want to live with that every day, either.
You'd get annoyed.
brendan schaub
Correct.
joe rogan
You'd be like, all right, you're fucking loud.
It'd be like living with a crazy, coked-up stripper every day.
brendan schaub
I was just going to say that.
It's like dating a stripper, man.
It seems fun.
Every now and then, it gets real...
joe rogan
But not just living with her, but, like, she would have to drive you to work.
brendan schaub
And everyone sees you.
Look at me.
joe rogan
And she's got tattoos on her neck, and she's loud, and she smells like cum.
I was like, oh, this is fun on Saturday in Vegas.
unidentified
It's exhausting.
It's exhausting.
joe rogan
Yeah, like, listen, lady, I'm almost 30 years old.
I've got to get my life in order.
You've got to get out of my fucking life.
brendan schaub
I'm at Starbucks, bitch.
I need you to pipe down.
joe rogan
That's what happens when you're young.
Like, those things are okay.
But as you get older, you realize, like, this is not fun.
This is just a lot happening.
So I think it's fun when I'm drunk.
brendan schaub
You think?
Well, I think it's good for, like, once or twice a week.
joe rogan
It depends on the girl.
brendan schaub
I thought we were talking about cars.
joe rogan
For the girl, it depends on the guy.
We are talking about cars.
We're talking about all things.
brendan schaub
All things.
joe rogan
You don't want to watch an action movie every fucking day.
brendan schaub
Hell no.
joe rogan
You don't want to watch explosions and fucking missiles.
You want to watch like Step Brothers.
unidentified
Yeah, man.
You want to watch something fun.
brendan schaub
Mix it up.
joe rogan
Mix it up.
brendan schaub
Listen, I love ice cream, but I want vanilla every day.
joe rogan
That's right.
Mixing it up is big.
And that's with people with everything, right?
brendan schaub
Everything, man.
We were talking about it off the air.
People get too comfortable.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
joe rogan
They do.
brendan schaub
I'm never comfortable.
joe rogan
You know one of the things that's been freaking me out lately?
Not freaking me out, but I've been wondering on it.
On my message board, sometimes I'll have a guest.
And then I'll read after the podcast that it's almost like half and half sometimes.
I had this guy Milo Yiannopoulos on the other day.
Hilarious guy.
Gay guy.
He's a blogger.
Really funny blogger.
Lives in England and he was over here from London.
And some people loved the podcast.
Some people fucking hated it.
Worst podcast ever.
This was shit.
Oh my god, this was hilarious.
I love that guy.
He's so entertaining.
I want to drown him in a toilet bowl.
It's like, you can't...
brendan schaub
That's what you want though?
joe rogan
Yeah, kind of.
unidentified
Right?
brendan schaub
That's kind of what you want.
As long as they're talking about it, you're good.
joe rogan
You cannot make every...
It's not possible to make everyone happy.
The only person who ever made everyone happy...
Was Bill Cosby.
He was the only guy.
I'm not joking.
He was the only guy.
unidentified
No, he didn't.
joe rogan
You're right, he didn't.
But he was the only guy that for a long time, you never heard a goddamn bad thing about him.
brendan schaub
Nah, those jello commercials piss me off, man.
unidentified
In that bullshit sweater all the time.
brendan schaub
Blacken up!
joe rogan
He was so good as a comic and so good as the host of his show and the Cosby show was so well done that literally no one spoke ill of him.
And all the while he's drugging chicks and raping them.
brendan schaub
Raping them.
joe rogan
But he might be the only guy.
There's like a few, like Anthony Hopkins.
You know, there's a few actors.
brendan schaub
But no one knows him, you know what I'm saying?
Knows him, knows him.
Yeah, I feel like we know Bill Cosby, or we thought we did.
joe rogan
We thought we did.
brendan schaub
I feel like Jay Leno's one of those guys.
joe rogan
In what way?
brendan schaub
Most people love Jay Leno.
unidentified
Oh, no.
brendan schaub
You don't hear a bad thing about Jay Leno.
Really?
joe rogan
Oh, that's so not true.
brendan schaub
Am I way off on this?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, you're so off.
brendan schaub
What?
joe rogan
Jay Leno?
First of all, I love Jay Leno.
brendan schaub
Well, Dave Letterman might hate him.
joe rogan
Not just Dave Letterman, but there was a bunch of fans of Conan O'Brien.
There was a whole situation where Conan took over The Tonight Show, and then remember Jay Leno had a show before him, and then it became this crazy thing where The Tonight Show wasn't doing so well.
brendan schaub
Well, this is like Cosby Rapin' Bitches.
Before that, before that, before we knew that...
joe rogan
People still didn't like him, man.
brendan schaub
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe it was my house.
brendan schaub
The Shobbs love Jay Leno.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
My household loved him.
joe rogan
What state was this again?
brendan schaub
Denver.
joe rogan
Yeah, Denver, Colorado.
That sounds about right.
brendan schaub
We love us with Jay Leno.
joe rogan
Especially pre-weed.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
Pre-weed, being legal, Denver, Colorado.
brendan schaub
We thought he was hilarious.
joe rogan
That was like living on a farm with really good electricity.
unidentified
That's...
joe rogan
He's feeding on a ranch somewhere.
unidentified
Some people that had a satellite dish.
joe rogan
Well, I think there was a lot of people from the Howard Stern group.
Like, for stand-up comics, Jay Leno, at one point in time, was, like, one of the top comics in the country.
For sure.
Like, real edgy.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Real edgy.
When he was young, he would go on David Letterman, be, like, this, like, super edgy guy.
And then for some comics, they felt like when he started hosting The Tonight Show, he kind of became more middle America and became more...
But he did it.
It's like...
It was a calculated move on his part.
brendan schaub
Smart move, really?
joe rogan
It was a smart move financially.
brendan schaub
He's more corporate, you're saying?
Yes.
joe rogan
Oh, 100% corporate.
100% corporate.
When you say sold out, I don't know, because I think people who like what he's doing still think what he's doing is great.
He just found a broader market that maybe might not appeal to younger, more hardcore people.
The way a real sharp guy like Letterman or maybe Conan.
Conan has some of the best writers in all of Late Night.
brendan schaub
I love Conan.
joe rogan
Yeah, especially when he was on the late night show in New York.
My buddy used to work for him.
I got to see one of their very first shows.
You know how we're having this banter back and forth?
Because we're just talking.
We're two friends, just shooting this shit.
When it would appear that they were doing that, but behind them there was placards that had every word they were supposed to say.
So their conversations were fake.
brendan schaub
What?
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They had a fake conversation.
So, I went to the zoo yesterday.
brendan schaub
So, someone's holding up the zoo.
joe rogan
Yep, yep.
Right behind them.
Everything was rehearsed and everything was pre-planned.
And eventually, he got away from that.
And I think in the beginning, they were nervous because he was a writer.
And so, he really didn't have a lot of performance experience.
brendan schaub
Because he wrote for Saturday Night Live and Simpsons, right?
Is that correct?
joe rogan
I believe so.
I don't know, but I know.
He was a super respected writer and a really funny guy.
And the thought was that he was the guy that was always really funny in the room.
Like when he would meet with executives and writers, he was like the funny guy.
A really strong, intelligent, funny guy.
And they're like, this guy should be a host of a fucking show.
And then they decided to, you know, build it up and make it work.
But in the beginning, they literally, it's probably micromanagement on the network side.
They were probably just fucking with his show too much.
They didn't just allow it to be what it is.
Yeah, sure.
They're taking a big chance having them there.
So it was weird that their, I don't remember what my original point was, but their conversation, oh, this is what it was.
That their conversation was written out.
So it was like the writers, like really sharp dudes that were trying to...
And then they came out with all these different like characters and reoccurring themes and everything that they would use on the show.
And it became like a real cohesive thing.
And then when he went to the Tonight Show, they changed the show.
Like all of a sudden he was doing like the Tonight Show.
You know, it's like the whole thing was different, the feel was different.
brendan schaub
You gotta do what got you to the dance.
joe rogan
Not only that, when they did it, Jay Leno was number one.
Like when they had Jay Leno step out and they put Conan O'Brien in, I think they probably, you know, they have these weird things where they base it on how old people are.
Like, if you're old as fuck, they don't want you.
Because old people don't spend any money.
They want those 18, 34-year-old men who are single.
That's the demographic, yeah.
That's the real money.
The real money is in young dudes who spend money on stupid shit.
And they're probably easily influenced by commercials.
So this is fucking shit.
brendan schaub
I know I am.
I see this KFC commercial.
They fucking go.
joe rogan
But there was also this thing where the Howard Stern Show was pissed at him.
And Howard Stern was pissed at Jay Leno because someone, whoever it was, on the Jay Leno writing staff most likely, was ripping off ideas from the Howard Stern Show.
Allegedly.
I've never examined this.
But I remember Howard being really pissed about it, and he's not unreasonable when it comes to stuff like that.
It doesn't make sense.
brendan schaub
Howard's a powerful dude, too.
joe rogan
Yeah, I think also, like, sometimes writers do shit like that, man.
That's happened, like, a gang of times with stand-ups.
Writers will come to see you perform, and then they turn your bits into a part in a sitcom.
That happened to Kevin James.
I witnessed it.
I saw the whole thing.
It's happened to several guys on a bunch of different shows.
brendan schaub
Bummer.
joe rogan
Well, you know what it is.
Say if you're a writer.
You're a young kid from fucking Cleveland.
And you get a gig writing for Chris D'Elia's show, right?
You gotta be funny.
brendan schaub
You got some demands.
joe rogan
Yeah, you got some fucking demands.
And some of these guys will come to comedy clubs and they'll just pilfer ideas.
brendan schaub
That's a bad idea, man.
It means you're shitty at your job.
joe rogan
It does, but it also means you're trying to get by.
Fake it till you make it, Brendan Schaub.
brendan schaub
You can't fake it off other people's ideas, though.
Because eventually you're going to get caught up.
joe rogan
I agree.
brendan schaub
There's no longevity in that.
joe rogan
They think they're not going to get caught up.
brendan schaub
True.
joe rogan
They think they're just going to get away with it.
Just do it now, and then I'm really good.
They just don't know it.
brendan schaub
Unless Joe Rogan sees that shit.
joe rogan
Or anybody now.
You know?
When we put out that YouTube video of the Mencia thing, that was a long-ass time ago.
brendan schaub
Dude, I just saw that a couple months ago.
That shit was awkward as fuck.
So awkward.
Why'd you get on stage like that?
joe rogan
Well, I was on stage before him.
brendan schaub
I know.
Do you know the whole story?
And then he's coming up, right?
joe rogan
He actually wasn't supposed to be on.
He took the microphone away from the guy who was next.
The guy who was next is this guy, Kurt Fox.
brendan schaub
He just de-bo-ed him.
He was like, give me the mic.
joe rogan
Yeah, because I brought him up as a writer, because Kurt used to write for Carlos, and I said he was a writer for Carlos Menstelia.
And so that was it.
That was it.
It was a straw that broke the camel's back.
brendan schaub
But then you jump up there, and then he goes, I have the mic.
What you don't realize, dummies, I have the mic.
And you're like, give me a fucking mic.
And then you get the mic.
And then shut that shit down.
joe rogan
Is he still alive?
Yes, he's alive.
unidentified
Is he still alive?
brendan schaub
Did you have him killed?
joe rogan
No, he's alive.
brendan schaub
Did the UFC mafia get to him?
Is he buried somewhere?
Is he dead?
joe rogan
He's out there doing stand-up still.
unidentified
Is he?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Yeah.
I hope he's doing well.
I hope he's doing his own shit.
You know?
The problem with those guys are...
One of the big problems is when you steal, you don't learn what it takes to come up with bits.
Like, I got a couple bits right now.
They might die.
I'm looking at them.
They're like bad dogs.
Dogs with broken hips.
I'm like, I don't have to put this motherfucker down.
This is a horse with a broken leg.
brendan schaub
See ya.
joe rogan
I'm trying to think if I should fix the bit or if I should just tank it.
brendan schaub
That's the battle though, right?
That's what makes you great.
joe rogan
It's the only way to make a bit good.
You gotta bring that motherfucker out to the light of day and you gotta tweak it and roll it.
And there's some times that bits just don't seem like they're gonna make it.
And sometimes you gotta let them go.
brendan schaub
But that's why you're making a living as a comedian and then Carlos Mancina's like, fuck man.
joe rogan
Well, he's still making a living.
He still probably does really well.
brendan schaub
You think?
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, he's a name, you know?
He can go to weird spots and do comedy clubs and still probably do pretty good.
But the reality is...
When you do that, when you steal, you usually steal because there's a different mindset for a plagiarist than there is for someone who's creative.
And I think the mindset of someone who's a plagiarist is the mindset of it's all about me.
It's about me getting this stuff and then I'm going to do it and I'm going to be a bad motherfucker.
It's about me.
Whereas I think the mindset of someone who's more creative is all about whatever the idea is.
And you're just sort of like a train to get the idea to the people.
brendan schaub
Well, I think if you're creative, too, you see an idea and you're like, well, you view it from a different filter.
Does that make sense?
Maybe.
People can see an idea and view it from a different filter.
I'm like, I think this is the funny way.
Like, this angle might be funnier.
joe rogan
Sometimes.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Sometimes.
I mean, it really depends entirely on the idea, but I think the big factor, one of the big factors is ego.
And if you have a big ego, it can help you and it can fuck you.
It can do both.
It can help you and it gives you like the courage and the belief in yourself, even if it doesn't make any sense, to try something that's very difficult to do.
brendan schaub
That's huge, man.
joe rogan
It is big.
brendan schaub
That's huge.
Our first live show, the first eight, nine minutes was me by myself.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
Why?
brendan schaub
That was the bit.
joe rogan
What?
You started it off?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Whose idea was this?
brendan schaub
Both of ours.
joe rogan
Why would you want to do that?
brendan schaub
It went awesome, man.
You're talking about egos.
You're talking about egos.
It went great, man.
joe rogan
Well, people loved you.
They came there to see you.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it went great, man.
joe rogan
So you did stand-up.
brendan schaub
Yeah, basically told a story.
joe rogan
Whoa.
brendan schaub
Yeah, and had this whole bit, and people were cracking up.
joe rogan
Dude, you've done stand-up.
Your first stand-up was in front of a live audience that was a podcast.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
That's crazy.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
That's crazy.
brendan schaub
It was awesome, man.
joe rogan
Your first stand-up ever is on the internet.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Whoa.
That's nuts.
brendan schaub
Well, we're not releasing it, though.
joe rogan
Oh, you haven't released it?
brendan schaub
People want to release it.
unidentified
What?
brendan schaub
I'll release my stand-up portion, but we want to make it special for the live fans.
People hate that.
joe rogan
Why would you want to do that?
It already was special for them.
They probably want to hear it again.
And then a bunch of other people want to hear it too.
brendan schaub
But yeah, so come to the other live shows.
We're doing all these tours.
unidentified
No, no, no.
brendan schaub
You think we should release it live?
joe rogan
Is this your idea or Callan's idea?
brendan schaub
Well, probably mine.
joe rogan
Yeah.
I was thinking it was too retarded to be yours.
unidentified
I thought it was Callens.
This is my only thing we don't talk about right now on here.
brendan schaub
Your idea of Callens.
joe rogan
I honestly think it's special for those people because they're live.
But they're there live.
It's already special for them.
They probably want to hear it again.
There's probably a lot of people that were there that said, that was a really good time.
I would love to hear that again on my commute.
And then there's other people that weren't there.
Well, you're going to punish them because they couldn't get to Brea?
brendan schaub
I'm not going to punish them.
joe rogan
That's what you're doing.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
That's what you're doing, man.
You got a recording.
Release the house.
Unless you're thinking about doing...
brendan schaub
People are going to jump all over this now.
I was getting so much heat.
joe rogan
Yeah, you should release it 100%.
brendan schaub
Well, fuck.
joe rogan
Now I have to, don't I? Well, you just should.
It's good.
If it's good, you should release it.
brendan schaub
It's great.
joe rogan
Then you should definitely release it.
Why not release it?
brendan schaub
Because we're doing a nationwide tour.
unidentified
Good.
joe rogan
Keep doing that.
brendan schaub
I feel like it would bring more people to the actual live events.
joe rogan
No, they're going to come anyway.
Don't worry about it.
Yes.
God, what are you worried about?
There's 350 million people out there.
What you need to do is clone yourselves and have more shows and do them in more spots.
What you don't need to worry about is people not showing up at a spot because they heard a live, unless the live podcast sucks.
If you come up with a dud, you do have that advantage.
But if you come up with a dud, you can tank it.
Like, for whatever reason, it just goes awful.
brendan schaub
Somebody just bombs.
joe rogan
If you have an excuse.
No, if somebody has to roofie you or something before the show.
brendan schaub
They could.
joe rogan
You never know.
Just start talking.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, man.
We did live questions and usually we filter them.
Some girl, you know, I've never been on stage really.
It's bright as fuck.
They give the mic to some girl.
She goes, uh, Schaub, do you remember to me?
Do you remember me?
I proposed to you four years ago at the UFC Expo and you said yes.
Where the fuck's my ring?
I'm trying to look.
I'm like, who the fuck is that?
Moving on.
Next question.
Next question.
Brandon, what do you think of?
And it's some Ronda Rousey question.
Next question.
joe rogan
Oh, no.
brendan schaub
Brandon, how much would Reebok...
Next question.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
brendan schaub
It was fun, though.
Mix it up, man.
joe rogan
I get that, though.
So you're involved in a lot of controversial shit.
brendan schaub
Not really.
Oh, you mean telling the truth?
Oh, you mean being honest?
unidentified
Yes.
brendan schaub
You mean being honest?
joe rogan
Don't you think that's controversial?
brendan schaub
I guess it is for an athlete.
I guess I'm supposed to be this fucking cookie cutter and get in line and it's just...
I don't know.
joe rogan
Well, you just have terrible PR skills and it turns out it works.
brendan schaub
Depends how you look at it.
joe rogan
What is PR, though?
It's public relations.
See, that's where they're wrong.
Because your public relations skills are awesome.
Because everybody knows you don't really have a very good filter.
brendan schaub
No filter.
joe rogan
Your filter's like a bunch of string in front of a river trying to keep the salmon out.
It's like, you need more than that.
They're going to get through that.
They go over rocks.
You know what I mean?
brendan schaub
You've got to have more than that, man.
joe rogan
It's like a moment of pause where they get to the string and they go, uh, what am I doing here?
brendan schaub
Dude, I don't know what to do.
Someone asked me a question.
I'm like...
Be yourself.
joe rogan
Don't worry about it.
You're a good guy.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I try.
joe rogan
If you're a good guy, just be yourself.
brendan schaub
If you're a good guy and you're telling the truth, I don't see why you wouldn't just keep doing it.
Like, I was training the other day and this guy came up to me and goes, Man, dude, I love what you do.
You give me motivation to do some outside fighting, blah, blah, blah.
But.
He goes, but.
But.
He goes, I wish I could talk about some stuff.
Do it, man.
joe rogan
Oh, he wishes he could do what you do.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he goes, I wish.
joe rogan
That's not really the same kind of butt.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he just goes, I wish.
He goes, I wish, I just can't.
joe rogan
Some people, well, he might not be able to now.
And the road for him to get to the point where he can is long.
But people always think that they are who they used to be.
Does that make sense?
It's like people look at themselves, like say if you were a loser in high school and you fucked, there's a lot of people that are haunted by high school for like their whole life.
brendan schaub
Or certain events, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, certain events.
That's why being bullied is so dangerous to some people.
Because if they get really fucked with by people and tormented by people in high school, That shit can carry over to the rest of their life.
It devastates their confidence.
So in their early developmental period, they have this really poor self-image.
And having a poor self-image is fucking super hard to get over.
brendan schaub
It's really hard.
unidentified
Agreed, 100%.
brendan schaub
Well, you know, I've talked about it before on this.
I have basically body dysmorphia, which is fucking crazy, man, because I'm in great shape.
And it happened in college.
I had this girlfriend for a long time, and I had this huge event.
I was getting ready to try out for all these NFL teams.
The night before, I was going through all my mental stuff on how I was going to do, and I put on exactly what I was going to wear.
And it's the, you know, you don't know how to act and eat like a pro, but I did it for, fuck, four months.
And I was, like, feeling good.
I'm like, damn, dude, I look like an NFL guy right now.
This is how an NFL guy looks.
And my girlfriend, I go, what do you think?
How do I look?
And she goes, I look a little soft.
You look soft.
You look kind of chubby.
joe rogan
Whoa.
One girl got you.
brendan schaub
Got me.
I was literally like...
Ever since then, man.
joe rogan
Wow.
brendan schaub
Gave me a fucking...
joe rogan
Did she date some bodybuilders before you or something?
brendan schaub
I don't know.
joe rogan
Some dudes who cut weight and eat oats?
brendan schaub
I don't know.
I think she was just trying to be honest.
Maybe she didn't have a filter.
I don't know, man.
joe rogan
Maybe that bitch didn't have a filter.
Did you look then?
brendan schaub
Kicked her to the curb.
joe rogan
Did you immediately?
For calling you soft?
brendan schaub
Shortly after that.
Very shortly after that.
joe rogan
But you were like, what?
brendan schaub
Beat it, nerd.
But ever since then, I was like, damn.
And then it fucked in my confidence the next day.
unidentified
I was like, ah, shit.
joe rogan
I can do that.
brendan schaub
100% man.
joe rogan
Yeah, if you let it in.
I think it's like snake venom.
Like, you get a little bite every now and then, I think it's good for you.
You gotta understand what's happening when someone's insulting you.
You gotta understand.
You know?
And sometimes they're just being honest with you.
unidentified
True.
joe rogan
And there's a time for that.
But that was not the time for that.
unidentified
That was...
joe rogan
Big tryouts, big games, big event the next day.
brendan schaub
Biggest time of my life at the time was a huge event.
joe rogan
And she's telling you soft.
brendan schaub
It's tough, man.
joe rogan
That's a mean bitch.
Did you guys have fights before this?
Was she mad about something else?
brendan schaub
I mean, I'm sure I was a shitty boyfriend.
Did I have another girlfriend at the time?
Yeah, I did.
Okay, we'll figure it out.
I was a bad guy.
Well, I'm not a bad guy.
I'm in college.
We're not going to get married.
joe rogan
Young, dumb, and full of cum.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
That's what it is, right?
That's why that expression exists.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
When you say young, dumb, and full, you never heard young, dumb, and full of comics?
brendan schaub
No.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
That's an old one.
brendan schaub
Have you?
joe rogan
Really?
Yeah, Jamie has.
That's old.
He's heard it from me a hundred times.
unidentified
Yeah, there you go.
joe rogan
It's before Rogan, though?
No, yeah, yeah, yeah.
For sure.
It's not mine.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
Yeah, I think it was around when I was in high school.
brendan schaub
Maybe it's some old school shit.
joe rogan
I think it's some old school shit.
But it's new school, too, because I've heard it from people recently.
brendan schaub
If someone would have told me that in college or high school, I'm like, damn, that's aggressive, man.
Super aggressive.
joe rogan
But correct.
brendan schaub
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
I know, right?
It's like you're trying to live here.
Goddamn overflow.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
But when you say that, nobody goes, I don't even understand.
Everybody goes, yeah.
unidentified
No, I get it.
brendan schaub
Yeah, 100%.
That was me.
joe rogan
I was thinking about myself in high school the other day for whatever reason.
You know how sometimes you have this weird moment where you just think like, wow, what was it like to be...
Like if I had to go and do that again, what was it really like?
What are my memories of it?
And what was it really like?
Because my memories of it were all like...
Always nervous, fucking never confident, always weirded out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Trying to get away from everybody.
I was weird.
brendan schaub
You were that kid?
joe rogan
So weirded.
I was accepted, because I fit in like the way I looked fit in.
I looked like an athlete, but I didn't know anything about sports.
I didn't know no sports, and all I wanted to do was kickbox.
That's all I wanted to do.
All I wanted to do was taekwondo and kickbox.
brendan schaub
That had been tough back then.
joe rogan
I was such a weirdo.
That's all I did all day.
I was always insecure.
Everything but that.
Like, when I did that, I was super confident.
Like, I knew I was really good at that.
So there was, like, one thing I couldn't wait to do and get the fuck away from people.
brendan schaub
What about girls?
joe rogan
I had a couple girlfriends.
I did all right.
I was a good-looking guy.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
It wasn't that hard, but I wasn't very good socially.
Not for sure.
Wasn't good at it.
I wasn't really good at that until I calmed down.
I don't think I was even that good socially when I started doing stand-up.
I think I got way better at it because I realized I need to.
But one of the things that I was thinking when I first started doing it was like, man, I wish I would just go back to competing because in competing I didn't need anybody's approval.
I kind of liked it if you didn't like me.
I kind of liked it if there's a bunch of people cheering against me.
I was like, just wait, wait to see what I do.
brendan schaub
Yeah, just wait.
joe rogan
Yeah, it doesn't matter to me.
It's just going to give me some more motivation.
It's going to give me some more intensity.
But with comedy, everybody has to like you.
And then you realize, like, you're not that likable.
unidentified
They have to, though.
joe rogan
Yeah, but, like, sometimes, like, things we do, like things a person does, you do to be successful.
But you're not thinking in terms of, like, being liked.
Mm.
Like, I always wondered about, like, guys who are extreme, extreme winners.
Guys like Lance Armstrong or guys like Michael Jordan.
And they get reputations of being not very good guys or very nice guys or maybe greedy.
Like, you always hear that about Jordan.
He doesn't...
Selfish.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
And you gotta think...
Like, a guy like that is so focused on this one thing.
He's so focused on winning.
He's so focused on just beating everyone down, and it's all about him and him getting ahead.
You're so focused on that.
So you're not thinking about how other people are perceiving you, because you're like, fuck them, I'm coming in and dunk on their face.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
Well, that's what greatness requires.
That's what I learned.
Through my journey of athletics, the best players I ever played with They weren't the friendliest.
The best fighters who I trained with, the best fighters that I ran with.
God, not the friendliest, man.
joe rogan
But George is.
St. Pierre?
St. Pierre is a super fucking friendly guy.
He's like one of those weird exceptions.
brendan schaub
George is super friendly.
Super friendly.
I wouldn't say George is the most out.
There's always something.
George might be the exception.
George is a very cerebral fighter.
I wouldn't say George isn't the most outgoing guy, you know what I'm saying?
Like, George is kind of an introverted soul.
He's picked on as a kid and stuff like that.
He's different.
A lot of the super winners, they're just different, man.
And it's something, maybe they're born with that, or an event in their life happened or something like that, and they're just these ultra winners, and I could never relate to it, I gotta be honest.
joe rogan
I wonder if being like that, it's the only way you become an ultra winner if you just think about the winning only.
You can't be this like really social butterfly person that just goes around and makes friends with everybody.
You got to be some driven psycho that's getting up at 4.30 and running up hills.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
And then you mix that with talent.
Now you got fucking the greatness.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
That's where the greatness comes from, man.
joe rogan
Yeah.
You know, I had a crazy conversation with BJ Penn the other night.
I just got a text out of the blue from BJ. Called BJ up, and BJ and I were talking about all sorts of shit, and he was talking to this friend of his who got his black belt in four years.
You know, BJ got his black belt in three and a half years.
brendan schaub
Yeah, which was crazy.
joe rogan
Crazy.
So the guy, you know, and BJ talking, and BJ goes, wow, that's amazing.
Congratulations.
You must be really talented.
And he goes, no.
He goes, I'm addicted.
He goes, I'm addicted to jiu-jitsu, just like you.
You were addicted too.
And BJ sat, but he goes, I never thought about it that way.
And then he goes, I realized, yeah, I was addicted.
That's why I got my black belt in three and a half years.
I was addicted.
We were laughing.
He was talking about how he's addicted to, like, Final Fantasy.
You ever play that game?
brendan schaub
I have, in like eighth grade.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He plays that shit?
joe rogan
No, at one point in time, though, he got addicted to that game.
brendan schaub
But again, that's how these crazy successful people are.
There is no one foot in, one foot out.
It's fucking all in, man, and nothing else matters.
Nothing else matters.
That might be my problem, Joe.
joe rogan
You're too nice.
But on occasion, like I watched that Crow Cop fight the other day.
You weren't very nice in that fight.
That was not nice.
brendan schaub
You know...
joe rogan
You were super aggressive in that fight.
brendan schaub
I was.
You know what's weird, man?
I watched the Alexander and DC fight, where it's back and forth.
And I used to get inspired by those, right?
I used to watch a great fight, and as soon as they ended, I'd hit the ground running.
I loved to run.
I would just run.
That's how I dealt with being nervous and what's next for me.
I'd just start fucking running.
Now when I see that stuff, I think first about their health.
I'm like, damn, I hope he's okay.
And I felt that change in me, and I'm like, well, that's not good.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's not good.
brendan schaub
That's not good.
Don't get me wrong, I still appreciate a great fight.
I fucking love fighting.
I don't miss a fight.
I view it different now.
Instead of thinking, that was an amazing fight, I think, man, I hope they're okay.
Hopefully they're not too injured.
And what's next after this?
Even if you win the belt, alright man, what's after this?
Because I have friends who have won belts and they're not fucking killing it these days.
joe rogan
It seems like...
Like, it's one of those things where you just have to, you have to be able to put aside any thoughts of the damage that you're doing to yourself.
You gotta be able to just do it.
And now as soon as you start taking into consideration the damage, it becomes that extra factor.
It becomes that extra thing that you have to think about.
You know, that can fuck with, and also that thing that can fuck with greatness.
Like we were talking about, about greatness is like this obsession.
Plus talent, dedication, and drive.
But then you add the variable of fear of injury or playing conservative to avoid injury.
brendan schaub
I agree.
I think I was obsessed with fighting.
And I think if you ask anyone who trained with me or one of my coaches, man, hardest worker in the room?
Shob.
By far, I was crazy.
Crazy.
But then when it came time to fight, You ever seen the old-school Robocop where he's about to attack someone?
It's like calculating and it's like fucking 70% gun here.
That's how my fucking mind works, man.
I don't know what to do.
You know what I'm saying?
Like my last fight, I'm sitting there and I'm like, I know here he throws this.
I know he's gonna kick.
So you're thinking too much.
Yeah, I'm thinking too much.
I'm too cerebral.
I'm thinking way too much.
Well, they're probably not like that.
They're going.
joe rogan
They're in the zone.
brendan schaub
They're in the zone.
They're fighters.
They're going.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
It's tough, man.
joe rogan
Well, it's one of the most difficult things, I think, for people to do is to get in that zone.
To figure out that place that you get to where you're just relying on all of your training and you're just there.
brendan schaub
Instincts.
That happened to me once.
joe rogan
Once?
brendan schaub
Gabriel Gonzaga.
joe rogan
Really?
Only once?
brendan schaub
Only once.
I don't know why.
Could not tell you why.
joe rogan
Wow.
brendan schaub
I remember that fight.
Just everything was slow motion.
I didn't hear the crowd.
Everything you threw, I already saw coming.
And it was just like this white noise.
That's the one time I've been in the zone.
Never got in the zone in football, really.
Maybe once.
But fighting, it's a freaking...
To get there, man, is unreal.
joe rogan
Well, it's different.
It's like if you get in the zone with playing ping pong, the loss of getting in the zone, it's not dangerous to your health.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
The thing about fighting that makes it different than anything else, even more difficult than jujitsu, Because jiu-jitsu is nerve-wracking.
And when you watch two guys going at it and they're trying to kill each other, they're nervous as fuck before that, you know?
But they're not as worried about injury.
It's a different kind of injury.
Because the jiu-jitsu injury, you might get choked, you might get your arm snapped.
It is possible you get hurt.
I mean, you could always...
brendan schaub
Embarrassed, really.
joe rogan
Yeah, or you could land wrong and fuck your knee up or fuck your neck up.
It does happen.
It is possible.
But MMA or kickboxing, anything like Muay Thai.
I watched this Muay Thai knockout the other day.
Oh my God, it was fucking insane.
Some guy from Thailand, I wish I knew who it was because it was an animated gif that someone sent me.
And this dude hits this guy with the...
He's got him in the Thai clinch.
He hits these guys with his fucking ridiculous knees to the body, like three...
Boom, boom, boom.
And they go into the ropes, and the dude hits him with a flying knee that is just the most perfectly timed flying knee.
Snaps his head back, his body goes limp, and he just slides against the ropes and down to the ground.
But it was just the poetry of it and the explosiveness of it that just boom, boom, boom.
And he flies through the air.
Bang!
Hits him in the flying knee.
Like, the fact that that could happen to you...
When you get in there with a guy who's training, you're just hoping he doesn't know how to do that.
brendan schaub
Yeah, well, especially this day and age.
I was watching the last UFC. I was watching the last UFC. I forget his first name.
The Rodriguez fella?
joe rogan
Yair.
brendan schaub
Yair and the Northcutt.
I watched Northcutt.
I watched Yair Rodriguez.
And I'm like, what the fuck?
joe rogan
Well, you know what the difference is?
brendan schaub
What the fuck is going on?
joe rogan
Taekwondo.
brendan schaub
Taekwondo plus, but Northcutt's been- Those guys have all the other shit, too.
Northcutt was this small.
I did some research on this kid.
He's this small.
His dad has him fucking do all this crazy stuff.
I'm like, that's the future, man.
And then I watched- You know, I'm not gonna say her name, but I watched two other guys who, you know, we're kind of in the same class.
They're a little older than me.
I watched them fight.
After watching Rodriguez and Northcutt, and then watching them fight, I'm like, I'm watching, I go, that's how I fight, man.
unidentified
That's...
brendan schaub
What?
It looked like you fucking went, oh, throwback Thursday in the middle of the card, you know what I'm saying?
Like, these guys are just boxing wrestling.
And then you see these young guys, and it's like, fuck, man.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Yeah, did you see that, uh, what is his name, Magomedov, the Russian dude that fought Sean Jordan?
Yes.
Goddamn, that guy can throw some fucking kicks.
You see that front leg question mark kick he was hitting him with?
brendan schaub
Yes, but it's more of a Taekwondo point scoring.
Like, no one's gonna be scared of those.
I fight that guy, it's like, yeah, the kick's cool, great.
joe rogan
Even his punches.
brendan schaub
I mean, he's like slapping you.
He's moving, he's moving.
He's gonna be in trouble when he gets in there with a killer.
joe rogan
Maybe.
brendan schaub
Not that Jordan's not a killer, but a guy who can deal with that...
Maybe.
Because that heavyweight, I was almost a little bit of a point scorer where I had so much footwork and I'd touch and move, touch and move.
When you get a heavyweight, he's going to, okay, touch, touch, touch, whack!
Hits like a heavyweight is when you get in trouble being a lighter heavyweight.
joe rogan
Maybe.
What is he, 240?
He's not lighter.
brendan schaub
He was 236, I think.
joe rogan
Was he?
brendan schaub
That'd be a lighter heavyweight.
Anything on 240, I consider lighter.
joe rogan
Kane's 240 and he carries a roll of fat on him.
brendan schaub
Now, would you say Kane's a knockout artist?
I wouldn't.
joe rogan
I wouldn't say he's a knockout artist, but you wouldn't want to get hit by him.
unidentified
He's dangerous.
brendan schaub
But Kane's also not a guy who stands outside and points, moves, points.
joe rogan
Right, no.
brendan schaub
He gets an underhook, puts his head in your chest, and does work.
joe rogan
Totally true.
brendan schaub
Completely different fighter.
joe rogan
Magomedov seems to fight more strategically.
Avoid damage first, and then land shots, and don't drain your gas tank.
brendan schaub
I agree.
Which is smart at heavyweight.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
To a certain point.
Because then you're going to get a guy who's not going to play that game.
joe rogan
Well, we'll see.
We'll see what happens to him as he moves up.
We'll see.
What I'm impressed with is his technique, though.
brendan schaub
I agree.
His counterpunching was nasty.
joe rogan
That question mark kick does not have a lot of power behind it.
That's a fact.
But the fact that he throws it like that off of his front leg, like for folks who don't know how hard that is to do, that requires like some crazy dexterity.
And to see that from a heavyweight is pretty rare.
brendan schaub
For the listeners, most people will know Donald Cerrone for throwing.
Donald throws it a lot.
joe rogan
Yeah, he throws it a lot.
brendan schaub
But for a heavyweight to do, it's pretty crazy.
joe rogan
Yeah, and Donald doesn't throw it that much off his front leg, though.
brendan schaub
He can.
joe rogan
He can.
He certainly can.
brendan schaub
But yeah, he'll use the back.
joe rogan
But that guy was throwing it like a whip off his front leg.
He was coming up and then swap!
But just there wasn't much behind it.
brendan schaub
That'd be my own.
His footwork, everything.
His cardio is great.
Counterpunching, dope, everything.
But you're getting a heavyweight where they're going to make it count.
joe rogan
Sean Jordan is tough as fuck, man.
He broke his rib in that first round.
He went back to his corner and said, my rib's broken.
You never saw it from his effort.
He never laid back, never put his arm over it, never tried to protect it.
He had to gut it out while that guy was staying on the outside, landing combinations.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that main event saved that card for sure.
That main event was amazing.
joe rogan
Those guys like Sage Northcutt though, and here's another one, Wonderboy Thompson.
Wonderboy is the motherfucker right now.
brendan schaub
He's a motherfucker.
joe rogan
Because everybody, like in the beginning, it was about taking him down and grappling with him.
But now that he's been spending so much time with Weidman, He's learning how to grapple, learning grappling defense correctly.
You're going to see more of what you saw in the Ellenberger fight.
Guys that are forced to stand up with him.
brendan schaub
True.
Enjoy that.
joe rogan
Have a good time.
You're fighting a snake.
brendan schaub
Can we call him Wonder Man, though?
I think he's 34, 35. Like, what the fuck?
Is there any way we can...
Change that, Wonder Man?
joe rogan
He can keep it.
brendan schaub
Yeah?
joe rogan
He keeps wheel-kicking people in the head.
He can keep it.
brendan schaub
Does he have anything coming up?
joe rogan
I don't know.
I don't know who he's fighting.
He got surgery.
brendan schaub
I know he did that.
The first person to bring him in was Nate Markhart in Denver.
Nate met him through, I think, a church thing, whatever how that goes.
So brought him down, and he's just this badass in the gym, but had zero grappling.
But standing with him was a fucking nightmare.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
And then Nate told George about him, and then...
We see Thompson up north, and he starts getting his grappling in.
And then when he got to the UFC, he was doing well with matchups, and then he got Matt Brown, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
That's when he got in trouble.
joe rogan
Yeah, Matt Brown beat him up.
He also was overtrained for that fight.
He said he came in that fight real flat, and he knew he was in trouble even before Matt Brown.
He's not taking anything away from Matt Brown.
He goes, I just could not recover.
brendan schaub
It was a back-and-forth fight.
Yeah, back-and-forth.
joe rogan
He survived, though.
He made it to the third round.
brendan schaub
He's a beast, man.
That kid's one to watch for sure.
joe rogan
Now he's so nasty.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
But what those guys can do, guys like him, guys like Gair and Sage Northcutt, rather.
Sage Northcutt has that front leg kick that he throws, and it's very unusual because he stands orthodox and throws his front leg side kick off his left leg, and it's a really good front leg side kick.
brendan schaub
So you've seen his previous fights.
Was he 7-0?
joe rogan
Yeah, 7-0.
brendan schaub
So you saw the previous fights for you on the UFC? I haven't seen anything besides...
joe rogan
I've seen a few of his fights.
brendan schaub
Okay.
joe rogan
I've been watching them for a while.
I've been hearing about them for a while too.
But what he's got is an unusual...
He's got a very high level of like karate and kickboxing and taekwondo.
Very high level of taekwondo skill.
But then also ridiculous athleticism.
Like he does front flips.
brendan schaub
That's what I see out of him.
His athleticism is different than most.
joe rogan
He does these front flips and lands on the tips of his toes and like gently comes down to his heel.
It's not like a clumsy bounce.
It's like this effortless flip where he knows exactly where the ground is.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I stalked his Instagram.
I saw him doing some crazy shit.
Like carrying wheels and shit up sand hills.
He's just a freak.
joe rogan
Look at this flip.
I mean, it looks like some moon landing shit.
That looks fake.
brendan schaub
He looks like a model, too.
joe rogan
He looks like...
brendan schaub
What the fuck is going on?
joe rogan
Paige Van Zandt if she was a boy.
brendan schaub
Those two need to procreate.
joe rogan
No, they don't.
Why?
That would be like some Uber race.
Look at how he does that.
Doesn't even seem real.
That literally looks like someone's got wires attached to his hip.
brendan schaub
That is insane.
joe rogan
Like, if you showed this to Eddie Bravo and put some chemtrails behind it, he would be absolutely convinced.
brendan schaub
Oh, dude, he's going off for an hour for Northcutt and Octopus right now.
But, uh...
Dude, you know he's a student at Texas A&M? Oh, my God.
He's talking about dropping out to do fighting full-time?
joe rogan
Nah, man!
unidentified
Nah!
brendan schaub
No way!
unidentified
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
joe rogan
Oh, you're saying that because of pussy?
unidentified
Yeah!
brendan schaub
Texas A&M? Johnny Manziel used to run that bitch.
unidentified
He's fine.
brendan schaub
Now it's you, Mr. Northcutt.
joe rogan
I don't think he needs any help.
I think it's probably better if he takes breaks.
unidentified
Nah.
joe rogan
Just a break every now and then.
brendan schaub
You know, I think he's uber-religious.
I don't think he even cares about that.
joe rogan
Eh, that's not good.
That'll build up.
Kid needs an outlet.
brendan schaub
Yeah, those flips won't be happening like that after a while, man.
joe rogan
Well, a body like that needs to fuck.
brendan schaub
You gotta unload that dick.
unidentified
That's just how it works.
joe rogan
Yeah, you gotta unload that dick.
That dick has to be exercised just like those quads.
unidentified
100%.
brendan schaub
Don't sleep on that dick, Northcutt.
joe rogan
His wrestling's good, too, though.
I mean, he's not like the best in the world at anything, but altogether, it's a nasty package.
brendan schaub
He's good at everything, and his athleticism's gonna carry him so far.
joe rogan
And he's only 19. Yes!
He's going to be so much better in a month.
brendan schaub
You know what's a little scary being 19 and being in the UFC already?
Yeah, you can be champion, but let's say he loses three in a row.
joe rogan
Well, what's scary to me is that he is overmatched quickly.
brendan schaub
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
joe rogan
We don't know if that even can...
Look at Michael McDonald.
Michael McDonald, 19 years old, fought Miguel Torres.
Dude, McDonnell, before he lost to Uriah Faber and before he lost to Henneporeau, was a motherfucker.
Motherfucker.
Isn't that a perfect, it's a perfect example.
It is, but you can't do what this kid can do, like with flips and stuff, but Michael McDonnell knocks motherfuckers into oblivion with his punches.
unidentified
Straight out.
brendan schaub
Where's Michael McDonnell right now?
When's the last time we've heard from Michael McDonnell?
joe rogan
He's been injured.
brendan schaub
For how long?
Two years?
joe rogan
I think he got hurt pretty bad.
I don't know what the injury was.
I don't even know if he discloses it.
brendan schaub
He was a motherfucker for a while.
I'm just saying the only thing that scares me is if we reference boxing, so a 19-year-old's going to have how many amateur fights?
Fucking 300?
joe rogan
A lot.
brendan schaub
Before they get to turn pro?
Right?
We're seeing Northcutt's career, amateur career, right now.
joe rogan
Right.
brendan schaub
With only seven fights.
What the fuck?
Seven fights ain't shit.
So let's say he wins three and he's a star.
Hey, my man.
Or you win two more and you're a star.
Hey, bro, there's nowhere to go.
We have to toss you to these monsters.
There's no buildups for three years.
Trust me.
joe rogan
Yeah, you would know.
That's an interesting point.
brendan schaub
That's what's tough about the sport.
Like, Paige, right?
She's phenomenal.
She looks great.
Speaks great.
She has skills.
Cool, man.
Let's build this up.
She can be your 115-pound champ.
But she's won, what, two or three now?
All right.
Well, and that women's division is so thin.
We're going to have to throw you some motherfuckers.
joe rogan
Well, how about the motherfucker?
She's ranked seventh at the top of the list.
Is a goddamn murderer.
brendan schaub
Straight up murder.
joe rogan
Ioana's a murderer.
She's a murderer.
I mean, she assassinates.
brendan schaub
Definitely top five best strikers in the UFC, I'd say.
joe rogan
She mercs chicks.
She mercs them.
She does some horrible shit to them.
brendan schaub
Straight up.
joe rogan
Yeah.
And so I think, like, when you look at her, all right, before she gets into MMA, she's a six-time world Muay Thai champion.
That's her amateur background.
brendan schaub
Exactly.
joe rogan
What she had to learn was just take down defense, defend yourself on the ground, and figure out how to get back up to your feet.
That's what Crow Cop had to learn in pride.
And I think when you deal with someone like Gennady Golovkin, perfect example, he's had a fuckload of amateur boxing fights.
brendan schaub
Insane amount.
joe rogan
Insane amount.
brendan schaub
He turned pro at like late 20s.
joe rogan
And then he goes into the pros, and these guys just can't fucking compete with him.
brendan schaub
Because he's ready.
joe rogan
He's so ready.
He's on such another level.
His technique is so sharp.
And on top of that, he gets just this stupid punching power that everybody's terrified of.
brendan schaub
Now, would we see Triple G, the superstar that he is now, if at 19 we said, alright, you gotta go pro.
Boom.
Get it.
unidentified
That's a good question.
brendan schaub
It's tough, right?
But the thing is, it's no one's fault.
That's the infancy of the UFC. That's just where we're at.
But for someone like Paige and Northcutt, like with Northcutt, if I sat down, I'm like, dude, they offer you a top 10 guy?
No, man.
You're good.
I'm telling you, bro.
I called out fucking Brock Lesnar after I beat fucking Gabriel Gonzaga.
You know what I'm saying?
It's like, dude, what?
I wish someone had been like, yo, Shab, chill, man.
This isn't a fucking...
Sprint here.
We gotta jog, my man.
joe rogan
The boxing system's like super established.
brendan schaub
That's what I'm saying.
joe rogan
It's been around for so long.
brendan schaub
It's no one's fault.
joe rogan
But everybody knows how to do it.
Like, they know.
Like, when a guy gets to a certain level, like, you know, Terrence Crawford or something like that, like, you give the guy some tests along the way, but you realize early on, okay, you're dealing with a really talented guy.
This is what we're gonna do.
We're gonna slowly build him up with some tougher and tougher fighters, and we're gonna see where he's at.
And we're gonna sit down.
Like, that's why trainers like Freddie Roach Are so invaluable.
Because they sit down and they watch as these guys are fighting.
They go, we've got to get in with a guy who's a body puncher.
We need to see what happens.
We get pressured.
We're going to give him a test in this fight.
And what you're trying to do is you're trying to build your fighter up.
Whereas what happens in MMA, there's no long-term structure and there's no amateur structure that's like...
Comparable to what boxing has so it's really hard for people to get built up to the point where They come into the pro ranks with a very high degree of skill unless they come from a different discipline wrestling That's why I see wrestlers Damien Maia Damien Maia who's fucking smashing people I mean Damien Maia's jiu-jitsu is terrifying but what what was he was a multiple-time world jiu-jitsu champion Jacare Jacare, same thing.
Ioana, same thing.
Murderer, Muay Thai champion, six-time world champion.
Across the board, there's so many examples.
Johnny Hendricks, elite wrestler.
Tyron Woodley, elite wrestler.
You can go down the list.
Cain Velasquez, Daniel Cormier, elite wrestlers.
brendan schaub
You look at all the champs, Ronda Rousey, Judo, Olympics.
You look at all the champs, they have this extensive amateur background.
And now you get these other guys who don't have that background.
It's such a disadvantage, man.
It's no one's fault.
I'm not pointing any fingers at all.
I'm saying it's an issue in the sport.
It's tough, man, because I was talking with someone, I think with Kenny Floyd, and I'm like, man, I'd love to see Northcutt get like eight fights in the UFC. Just murk people and get comfortable, and we both agreed that that's not going to happen.
Because he wins four in a row, people are crying for a towel shot.
And a reason for this is because of these freaks, these one-percenters that everyone compares everyone to, and that's like a Ronda Rousey who just comes on the scene, Merck and people, or Jon Jones.
You're talking about, most people aren't like that, man.
Those are the LeBron James of our sport.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Most people in the sport, at the championship level, are not like Jon Jones.
brendan schaub
That's what I'm saying.
Or Ronda.
They're just not.
They don't have that mental game.
joe rogan
You know what I'm saying?
Again, the extensive competition background before you ever get to MMA, I think you become a champion already.
There's only a few guys.
Gustafson's a good example.
Gustafson was a good boxer.
He was an amateur boxer, I believe, before he got into MMA. Correct.
But how much experience did he have in boxing?
How many amateur fights did he have?
brendan schaub
I don't think it's extensive.
I don't think, you know, he's like a...
joe rogan
He's obviously like a hair off the champion.
You know, a hair off the Jon Jones fight, a hair off the Cormier fight.
He wins that fifth round.
With Cormier, he's a world champ right now.
brendan schaub
I agree, and it's heartbreaking.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
It's super, that fight was super heartbreaking for me.
joe rogan
That fight was crazy.
brendan schaub
For Gus Fin, because it's like, he lost to John, now he loses to DC. He's just, he's that guy, man.
joe rogan
Did you see the picture he posted on his Instagram today?
brendan schaub
And I saw you retweeted it.
joe rogan
Almost made me tear up.
brendan schaub
I know, man.
Me too.
unidentified
You know?
brendan schaub
I love that guy.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's a great guy.
brendan schaub
I love DC too.
joe rogan
That photo.
brendan schaub
I love DC too, and that was a great fight.
But now you've got a motherfucker waiting.
John Jones.
And I don't know if you've seen his Instagram, but this motherfucker's motivated.
He was whooping everyone's ass three weeks of training.
What?
Now you're going to take coquina away from this motherfucker and drugs and make him lift weights?
And now he's going to do a real camp?
What the fuck do you think is going to happen?
joe rogan
He's going to have a hard time cutting weight.
brendan schaub
Nah, he'll figure it out.
unidentified
Nah, he'll figure it out.
What?
Fuck that!
joe rogan
He looked big, didn't he?
unidentified
Jacked!
joe rogan
Looks like he's getting ready for prison.
Jacked!
brendan schaub
Jacked!
Jacked, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's the best.
brendan schaub
He's the best.
joe rogan
As far as light heavyweights go, for sure.
brendan schaub
It's not close, though, Joe.
You know what I'm saying?
I love DC. I fucking love DC. That guy, I love working with him.
I love being around him.
He is greatness at its finest.
You know, I have a son on the way.
DC's a guy I can point to and say, be like DC. He's a good example.
He's a great dude.
He's done it the right way.
You can't say that about John, right?
joe rogan
Well, right now you can't.
But John's a young guy.
He's 27 years old, right?
brendan schaub
Not that young.
But the thing is, with DC, he's like the Phil Mickelson.
You know what I'm saying?
He's like Phil Mickelson of golf.
Who's Phil Mickelson?
Exactly.
If Tiger Woods isn't around, we're all fucking wearing Phil Mickelson shoes and shit right now.
joe rogan
Really?
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
But Tiger Woods is that motherfucker.
He's that 1% better.
And just beat him every time.
joe rogan
Sucks to be Phil.
brendan schaub
I know, man.
He's still making bank.
He's still making bank and people love him.
joe rogan
That's the difference between the UFC and golf.
brendan schaub
You're not making that John Jones money.
unidentified
Second place.
joe rogan
You can still have a private jet.
I bet that dude's got a private jet.
brendan schaub
Ask Mr. Tate how number two's doing behind Ronda.
It ain't fun.
You ain't sipping champagne with Dana White on private jets and number two wear Nike and shit.
joe rogan
Well, the disparity between number one and number two financially is fucking enormous.
unidentified
Infighting?
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Yeah!
Fuck yes!
joe rogan
It's fucking enormous.
It's like there's no other place where it's bigger.
You know?
brendan schaub
Yeah, I mean, boxing, you could say that a little bit.
Well, not really.
joe rogan
Do you know who I think is the biggest threat to John?
brendan schaub
I'd love to hear this.
joe rogan
Rumble.
brendan schaub
Oh, I disagree.
joe rogan
See, I think Rumble...
If Rumble gets his conditioning together, and I think Rumble had a real hard time in that Cormier fight, but the Rumble that you see when you saw him fight Jimmy Manoa, the Rumble that, like...
You're smiling.
Why are you smiling?
brendan schaub
I'm smiling because you're like, man, if Rumble fucking got his cardio together, bro, and fucking got taller and longer, his reach.
joe rogan
No, no, no, I'm not saying that.
brendan schaub
You're asking for a lot.
unidentified
I didn't say that.
brendan schaub
Well, he said the guy that fought Jim.
joe rogan
He didn't help Gustafson when he fought Gustafson.
He took Gustafson out in the first round.
brendan schaub
True.
With a headbutt.
But the thing is...
No, I love Rumble.
Don't get me wrong.
I love Rumble.
joe rogan
They definitely did clash heads, but I think his head got hit too, right?
brendan schaub
I'll tell you exactly what happens if Jon fights Rumble.
joe rogan
What happens?
brendan schaub
Jon takes him down, wears his ass out, and breaks him in the second round.
Probably submits him or TKOs him.
joe rogan
Wow.
brendan schaub
That's how good John is, man.
And everyone's like, oh, Shob's a John Jones nut hugger.
Nah, man.
joe rogan
He's very good.
brendan schaub
I don't know what to tell you.
joe rogan
He's better than very good.
Very good's not even a good enough description.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I agree.
He's by far the best.
Like, we have everyone, and then we have John.
That's how fucking good this guy is.
That's how bad he's beating people.
joe rogan
What if John had the kind of technique that Mighty Mouse has?
unidentified
Fuck it.
joe rogan
Kind of technique and footwork.
brendan schaub
We're gonna have to do like a rumble match, like two on one.
joe rogan
What if all this time off, Jon Jones comes out and he starts fighting like TJ Dillashaw.
brendan schaub
Oh my god.
joe rogan
What?
What?
Oh, okay.
What do you think about this TJ Dillashaw thing?
TJ Dillashaw moved camps to Elevation, Team Elevation in Colorado, and, you know, Uriah is, uh, noted, Well, understandably upset, you know?
brendan schaub
I knew this for weeks because he moved to my head coach, my old head coach.
joe rogan
Oh, really?
brendan schaub
Yeah, but I couldn't say anything.
I don't want to break the news.
I'm not fucking Ariel Helwani.
joe rogan
Someone's coming with cash?
Is that what it is?
brendan schaub
Yeah, Muscle Farm Jim is paying the UFC fighters now.
unidentified
Ooh.
brendan schaub
And so, yeah, TJ's going there.
And I'll tell you what it does do.
You ready for this one?
It sets up Uriah, TJ, talk about a fucking countdown.
What?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Reebok hits for everybody.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
What?
brendan schaub
You imagine that fight?
joe rogan
Do you think they would do that?
brendan schaub
100%.
They agreed they would fight each other.
And now even more.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
Yeah, they've said previously they would be down for it.
joe rogan
So what is the Muscle Farm deal?
Is it some dude with oil money or something?
brendan schaub
I don't know what those Muscle Farm deals do.
joe rogan
Some guy owns a diamond factory somewhere?
brendan schaub
I don't know.
Well, I think what they're going to do is because they can't really be...
In the UFC anymore.
So they came up with this plan.
We're like, all right, we'll sponsor fighters.
So we'll get all their Instagram and social media and we can put our brand on them that way.
joe rogan
Oh, really?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Huh.
brendan schaub
Because since Reebok came, right?
joe rogan
That's pretty smart.
brendan schaub
It's smart.
It's actually pretty smart.
I don't know how much they're paying them if it's smart, but it makes smart to get their social media because I always thought about this because let's say you give me whatever 10 grand to wear a t-shirt for one night for 30 seconds, or you can sponsor for the year and all my fucking social media and training, I'm rocking your shit.
You can get way more coverage, man.
joe rogan
Well, you can today, too, especially with a guy like TJ that's super popular or someone like Rhonda or, you know, anyone who's, like, very popular on social media.
brendan schaub
True.
You gotta be social media savvy, though.
A lot of guys aren't.
joe rogan
Or you gotta have someone that works with you and for you, like a manager or something like that who knows how to do that shit.
brendan schaub
I used to hire a photographer, Eric Williams, a beast photographer, and he'd come to my training camps and he'd take all these pictures and send them to me at night so I could post them throughout the week.
joe rogan
But you would post them all yourself?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Some people post all their shit themselves, and some people, like, some athletes and even some, like, musicians, you see, like, posted by Team Cruise.
unidentified
Yeah, I know.
joe rogan
Like, Tom Cruise has, like, a team that posts this stuff.
brendan schaub
It's kind of lame, though, isn't it?
joe rogan
It's very lame.
brendan schaub
Like, I think it's dope that social media allows people access that they normally wouldn't have.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's what it's supposed to be all about.
brendan schaub
The personal interaction, like, whatever.
I'm not saying dick pics, but you know what I'm saying.
joe rogan
That's what it's supposed to be all about.
It's supposed to be all about, like, if you get a tweet from me, unless it's from a YouTube video, like the YouTube videos, when they get uploaded, they automatically generate a tweet.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
But that's just the title of the YouTube video.
There's no opinion in that or anything like that.
If you get opinions or, hey, this movie was fucking awesome, I ate at this place, it tasted great.
unidentified
That's you.
joe rogan
That's on me.
That's Joe Rogan.
100%.
I don't want to let anybody else do that.
brendan schaub
Dude, my manager one time, I forget which fight, was like, oh, I'll tweet live for you during your fight.
I'm like, get the fuck out of here.
joe rogan
Can you imagine?
brendan schaub
What are you, crazy?
joe rogan
What kind of gross shit he would say?
brendan schaub
You have one eye.
No, hell no.
unidentified
Fuck no.
joe rogan
When I was doing a show, they wanted to take my social media.
Sci-fi wanted to take over my social media.
brendan schaub
You're batshit crazy.
I would never do that.
joe rogan
I was like, you gotta be on drugs.
brendan schaub
I didn't let my girl fucking see my social media.
What?
I'm not giving anyone my fault.
joe rogan
Arsenio Hall was at the Ice House one night, and I was talking to him.
It was after his show.
You know, he did the Arsenio Hall reboot.
And after they did it for a while, it didn't work.
Or it didn't work out or whatever.
He's having fun.
He doesn't give a shit.
But he was like, I can't get my fucking Facebook back.
He's like, they have my Facebook.
And I go, well, you can't get it back?
He's like, well, I had to give it to them when I had to give control of my social media.
brendan schaub
Oh, you fucked up.
joe rogan
Yeah, you had to do that.
brendan schaub
Well, Kevin Hart was talking about this, how movies now tell him, like, hey, man, we need you to tweet out or Instagram the movie.
He's like, that's not in the contract.
If you want that, you got to write that in.
That's extra money, man.
This is a completely different machine.
I'm doing the movie, you're paying me for my talents.
If you want me to promote on social media that I've billed myself over the years, you're going to have to write this into the contract.
joe rogan
That's interesting because I would think that if he did something that he enjoyed, he would want people to see it, so he would use his social media.
brendan schaub
I think he's looking at like a business, though.
I get it 100%.
I get it 100%.
joe rogan
I do, but I also think, like, at his level, he must be making so much fucking money that, like, to say I want more money to use my social media presence.
Like, what the social media presence is really just going to do is alert his fans to some movie that he's doing, which is good.
brendan schaub
To watch his movie.
Sometimes you gotta be careful with social media, and this is just me, right?
Compared to Kevin Hart, I'm not shit, I'm a grain of sand.
But when a company comes to me and goes, whatever, we want to work with the fire and the kid.
I'm like, cool, well the deal's with me and Brian, and they're like, yeah, but we want your social media.
To have me post this stuff, listen man, fans, they hate that shit.
joe rogan
Yeah, they don't.
brendan schaub
It's a motherfucker, man.
joe rogan
They always want to figure out some way to weasel in.
brendan schaub
Always.
joe rogan
Some way.
brendan schaub
Always.
joe rogan
There's gotta be a way to get in here.
You know, a lot of things, a lot of people are experiencing this.
They're getting courted by these networks, like there'll be a network, like a podcast network will come to them and want to take a piece of the action and get in return.
They would provide them with a certain amount of commercials.
Like really, they're not providing anything.
But what they're doing is they're saying, by saying, you know, hey, we'll provide you with some commercials, we'll give you some commercial revenue.
But by saying that, what they're really doing is they're trying to figure out a way where they can make money off of what you're doing, where you're doing it completely independently.
Like right now, what you're doing is you're taking your stuff and you're just putting it online.
Now, you've got to figure out that somehow, someway, someone is eventually going to figure out how to advertise that.
So what they're doing is they're seeing, like, this guy's missing out on some money.
What I'm going to do is I'm going to move in here, and I'm going to take some of his – I'm going to give him some money, but I'm going to take some of his money where it doesn't make any sense that I would make that money.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
They're giving away 50% in some of these cases where they're joining podcast networks.
The network's asking for 50%.
brendan schaub
And I know people have done this.
It's like, what are you thinking, man?
joe rogan
It's crazy.
brendan schaub
Don't give anyone 50%.
joe rogan
But if you had a radio show, that makes sense.
Like, say if you were on CBS radio, whatever, just for a name to use, right?
And you had some sports radio show, and they said, listen, we're going to syndicate your show.
We're going to bring your show across the country, and this is what we want.
We're going to get advertisers, and we're going to give you 50% of the ad revenue, but you're going to make a lot of money.
You'd be like, whoa.
Okay, that sounds pretty good.
Sounds like a good deal.
But really, there's no channels that people automatically go to.
What people do is they download podcasts that they like, whether it's Radio Lab or The Fighter and the Kid or The Church of What's Happening Now.
They go to what they like and then they get it.
The idea that you're just going to tune into a dial 6.40 a.m.
It's the ghost.
unidentified
You know what I mean?
joe rogan
The ghost morning show.
You know what I mean?
That is like you have a distinct location that people are accustomed to going to.
They're going to go there.
It's like if you want ad space on Santa Monica Boulevard.
Well, you know Santa Monica Boulevard is a well-traveled area.
If you put up a billboard up there, it kind of makes sense.
You have to pay a lot of money.
But if someone says, dude, I got this billboard.
It's in a little fucking desert.
I want a lot of money.
I want a fuckload of money.
I want half of what you made.
unidentified
I need 50%.
joe rogan
I'm going to put this billboard up.
Can other people get to that billboard?
Yes.
They just have to get in their car and they have to drive out to the desert.
Now, about the money.
brendan schaub
Bro, me and Callan had a serious discussion because, you know, with the show- No glory link yet?
No glory, huh?
We're trying to find out.
joe rogan
We're supposed to get a link.
brendan schaub
With the podcast doing better, we're getting more sponsors, advertising stuff like that.
And we had a major corporate sponsor come to us.
Now, I fancy myself, when I was younger, a couple of these products, especially with cheese and ketchup only.
I loved them, man.
I don't promote it now.
But I could buy a lot with it, you know what I'm saying?
But Cal was like, absolutely not, man.
He's like, I would never tell people to buy this stuff.
joe rogan
Yeah, you can't tell people to buy that.
brendan schaub
You can't.
joe rogan
You can't.
brendan schaub
And after talking to Cal and I ran some stuff by you, it's just like, you can't do that, man.
joe rogan
Unless you love it.
Like if In-N-Out Burger came to me and they wanted to offer a sponsorship, I might have to fucking say yes.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you right now, Chick-fil-A comes to me.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
Chick-fil-A? They hate gay people.
Do you know that?
brendan schaub
Hey man, I'm just trying to get a chicken sandwich, bro.
joe rogan
Listen, they hate gay people.
brendan schaub
Do they?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Jamie's like, not anymore.
unidentified
Not anymore.
As if the PR push worked.
joe rogan
It only worked on Jamie.
Jamie's the only one.
Like, not anymore.
He interrupts the podcast.
Not anymore.
Not anymore.
You don't even know.
That's why.
That's why.
brendan schaub
Damn, so I can't eat Chick-fil-A anymore?
joe rogan
That's great.
That's why those goddamn promos work.
That's why those.
brendan schaub
They got me and Jamie.
joe rogan
Those publicists.
brendan schaub
I'll fucking take a chicken sandwich right now.
joe rogan
No, they're very rude about the gay people.
They spend money to try to stop gay marriage.
Oh, fuck.
Really?
Yeah, it's been a big thing.
brendan schaub
That chicken is so delicious.
You've ruined my night.
joe rogan
You can do a good job.
It doesn't matter.
You can still eat it.
It doesn't matter in the long run.
brendan schaub
I like gay people, though.
joe rogan
Just because you have stupid opinions doesn't mean you shouldn't be allowed to make money.
brendan schaub
True.
joe rogan
The problem is when they're using those stupid opinions.
See, they're super religious, and that's one of the things.
Religious people, they don't freak out about some things that are in the Bible.
You very rarely see religious people protesting against tattoos.
But in the Bible, it very clearly says, don't get tattoos.
brendan schaub
We're both fucked.
joe rogan
We're both fucked.
brendan schaub
Both super fucked.
joe rogan
But what's hilarious is there's a lot of people that are super religious that fucking tattoo religious shit on their body.
You're not supposed to do that.
Like, there's other stuff.
You're not supposed to...
Like, if you go Old Testament, you're not supposed to be eating pork.
You know?
You're not supposed to be, like, an animal, a split hoof that chews its own cut.
Like, there's, like...
You have rules, like, what you're supposed to eat and what you're not allowed to eat.
And...
There's a lot of people that break those rules.
There's a bunch of rules about divorce, and there's rules about property, and there's rules that people break in the Bible all the time.
But for whatever reason, with really religious folks, that gay rule is the rule that they want enforced.
brendan schaub
Why do they give a fuck?
joe rogan
It's weird.
It's weird.
brendan schaub
Like my good friend Joe Rogan said, maybe they're worried that dicks taste delicious.
joe rogan
Yeah, they're fighting off the gay for sure.
Fighting off the gay?
Fighting off like a vampire putting garlic around their neck and shit.
It's also, I think they think of gay.
This is my amateur psychologist opinion.
brendan schaub
Love to hear it.
joe rogan
I think some people think of gay as being decadent and indulgent in that this will lead to slovenly behavior and too much partying and fucking and guys sucking each other off and coming at each other.
This is not conducive to a good, well-oiled society.
Like, well-oiled society needs people to be buttoned down and conservative.
That's why conservative people, they tend to dress with suits and ties.
They tend to let you know, like, look, we're going to follow.
I'm down with this agenda.
God, guns, country.
I listen to country music.
I got a Second Amendment thing.
They're so cookie-cutter in the way they think.
That it's somewhere along the line, like, God, there's so many people that think along the same way.
Well, this is an adoption of an ideology.
They're adopting a way to think.
They're adopting this hard-working, American, blue-collar, conservative, religious, God bless America.
Put your hands over your heart.
Let's all join in in prayer.
God bless America!
brendan schaub
Don't you think they're doing that so they don't have to think for themselves?
joe rogan
There's a little of that.
There's a little of that.
And there's also your subscribing to this ideology that would most likely, what you believe is, it'll most likely prevent people from acting crazy and doing stupid shit because they're going to follow God's rules so it'll be easier to raise kids.
Like, it'll be easier to have a family and just bring them to church on Sunday, and you say hello to the Wilsons, and everybody talks fake.
You're all talking like your strip club DJs.
Hello, Mr. Wilson!
Hey, you got a nice new sedan there, Mr. Wilson.
brendan schaub
Jimmy, come on down.
Listen, man, people are looking at it all wrong.
I mean, the more gay dudes, the better.
More chicks for me, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
unidentified
Fuck it.
joe rogan
I think there's that, and there's also, like...
This shit that I don't like, I don't like discrimination.
I don't like it.
I don't like any discrimination.
It drives me nuts.
brendan schaub
I agree 100%.
joe rogan
But in both ways, though, too.
Like, I saw today, there was a Seattle yoga place that will not accept white men.
Or white people or white men.
I tweeted it earlier today.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
brendan schaub
Yoga's white as fuck.
Do you hate money?
unidentified
Who is this?
joe rogan
Yeah, I'll pull it up on my Twitter.
brendan schaub
When's the last time you went to a yoga class?
Like, damn, there's a lot of black people in there.
joe rogan
Well, it's not that common, I don't think.
I don't think so.
Some of the black folks enjoy the yoga.
brendan schaub
They might.
I'm saying in general, if you want to make money, for sure don't kick out white people.
joe rogan
Well, I think that's their point.
I think they wanted something that's theirs.
But to say that white people can't come, like, goddammit, you're missing the boat.
Yeah, you fucked up, son.
It just doesn't seem to make any sense.
brendan schaub
Someone fucked you on your business plan.
joe rogan
No whites allowed.
It's whites.
Yeah, they only want people of color.
They want to exclude Caucasians.
brendan schaub
This isn't Seattle?
joe rogan
Yes.
brendan schaub
Kurt Cobain land?
You're fucking up, man.
joe rogan
Yeah.
A lot of white people up there.
brendan schaub
A lot of white people?
Ah, it's tough.
joe rogan
Well, you know, some people think that supporting black people is not racist.
That just supporting, universally supporting black people is not racist because black people have been oppressed and that what you're doing is you're giving them a place where they can join in a community and feel like they belong because they feel ostracized from the rest of the world, especially in Seattle where everybody's white.
The problem with that kind of thinking is it's still the same thing.
We're saying white people can't come in.
It's still the same thing as saying black people can't come in.
brendan schaub
Man, that's racist.
joe rogan
It's racist.
brendan schaub
Towards white people.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's just racist.
brendan schaub
You know what?
Just make your fucking yoga place just super inviting to blacks.
Make it awesome.
joe rogan
Just make it awesome to everybody.
And if you want more black people to do it because you identify with those black people, reach out to them.
But to say that white people can't come to your yoga class...
That seems crazy.
brendan schaub
It's the worst idea I've ever heard.
joe rogan
Why would you not like people based on how much melanin they carry in their skin or their ethnic origin of their grandparents?
It's fucking stupid.
It's fucking stupid.
It's stupid if you're white.
It's stupid if you're black.
It's stupid if you're Asian.
It's stupid.
brendan schaub
You're ignorant.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
So what religion is Chick-fil-A? Christian.
Fucking A. Yeah.
That is heartbreaking.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Fuck you, Chick-fil-A. There's a bunch of Chick-fil-A stuff online.
There's people that were boycotting them and shit.
brendan schaub
That's crazy, man.
You know, I had a cousin who was basically beat to death because he was gay.
Whoa.
Yeah, man.
So super touchy for me.
So no more Chick-fil-A for me, even though I love that fucking chicken sandwich.
joe rogan
Yeah, see, that's fucking crazy.
brendan schaub
He was on a bus.
He was on a bus, and he was very, like, flamboyant.
And they jumped him and basically beat him to a pulp, and he went home and died later.
Crazy, right?
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Bummer, man.
Didn't mean to fuck up the flow of the podcast.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Where was this?
joe rogan
Where'd this happen?
brendan schaub
Denver.
joe rogan
Denver.
brendan schaub
It was on a public transportation bus.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
brendan schaub
Yeah, a bunch of dudes jumped him for being gay.
joe rogan
They didn't find out who it was?
brendan schaub
Yeah, they did catch him.
joe rogan
Wow.
What happened to them?
brendan schaub
I'm not sure.
I remember when I was in college at the time, my dad telling me, I was like, what?
Fuck.
And I remember, like, when I was younger, me and my brother were pretty close to him, him and his brother Nathan, and then, you know, you do shit and you just fall out of touch, but I remember my dad telling me, I'm like, what the fuck?
I remember being mad that I couldn't help him.
It's weird, right?
joe rogan
The idea that someone would want to just hit someone because they're flamboyant, because they're gay.
unidentified
What?
brendan schaub
I know, what the fuck is wrong with people?
joe rogan
It's the way they were raised.
It's 100% what it is.
It's the way they were raised.
It's 100%.
If you were raised in a community that didn't give a shit, That would be like no big deal.
Like if, okay, let's just say us, like all of us in this room, like you, me, and Jamie, if we had our own little community and one of us had a kid and another one of us had a kid and we found out Jamie's kid is gay, do you think you would want your kid to beat up Jamie's kid?
Would you say you got to kick their ass?
Would you promote that kind of thinking?
No way.
No way.
It would never happen.
It wouldn't be possible.
But when you get enough fucking idiots in a city, and you get enough really narrow-minded, bigoted people that have these shitty ideas about other people's sexual orientations, or the way they choose to wear their clothes, or whether they choose to be goth, or whether it's anything, whatever it is, if it doesn't affect you, is it poisoning your pool?
brendan schaub
I know, who cares?
joe rogan
Are they killing your vegetables in your garden?
unidentified
Who cares the fuck?
joe rogan
Like, what's going on when you're upset?
You're raising people to have this fear of it, and then they're interacting with other people at school, and they all have this fear of it, and they all want to let everybody know that they're not like that.
And one of the best ways to let people know that you're not like that is to attack people who are like that.
brendan schaub
It's crazy, man.
Think about...
I had a transgender person on our show, Caitlin Beck, and she was saying that...
Kristen Beck.
Kristen Beck, dude.
Save my man.
Kristen Beck.
And she was saying she's walking down the road and just...
Group of five guys came from behind and beat the shit out of her.
Shit happens all the time.
Transgender, it's their number one concern.
Walking down the road getting beat up.
unidentified
And she was a Navy SEAL. She was a Navy SEAL and gets her ass wet.
joe rogan
That's a crazy situation, man.
To be a Navy SEAL, full beard, badass, American killer, out there.
brendan schaub
I think it proves that they're wired like that.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, no one chooses like, oh, I want to take all this on.
Especially today's society.
What?
Yeah, I want to take all this on.
I want to be gay and have people criticize me and all this shit.
joe rogan
Some people are certainly wired that way.
brendan schaub
I think some are, yes.
And I think some choose, but I think a lot of people are born that way.
joe rogan
And you know what?
Here's the other thing, though.
The people that do choose, that's their choice.
brendan schaub
I agree.
Have fun, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, they're allowed to have that choice.
unidentified
Get weird.
joe rogan
Yeah.
It's like, if you want to be Debbie now, that's cool.
You know, whoever the fuck you want to be, I don't give a shit.
Again, same thing.
If it doesn't affect me, if it doesn't affect me, I don't really care.
brendan schaub
I agree 100%.
joe rogan
The people that do care, though, they're scary.
They're scary to those folks.
To a folk, someone that's Transgender or someone that's flamboyant or black.
You're in the wrong place.
You're black or white.
If you're in the wrong place, you're white.
There's people that will beat the fuck out of you because they feel like you got a fucking easy hand because you were raised white.
brendan schaub
The world is crazy, man.
joe rogan
There's bad people in almost every single demographic.
You're going to find people that, for whatever reason, they got to where you are in a fucked up way.
brendan schaub
Curveball, not to change subject, but you think fucking humans are a motherfucker?
Watch National Geographic for a little bit.
joe rogan
Oh yeah.
brendan schaub
Mother Nature is a motherfucker.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
To another level, man.
joe rogan
Oh yeah, dude.
Is this live?
unidentified
I got it well.
joe rogan
We got it?
Yeah, I have it.
jamie vernon
It's done now, so we can start it over.
joe rogan
The whole thing's done?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
The entire event?
They're getting ready to start it back up at 8 o'clock Pacific Time.
brendan schaub
For Cali, West Coast?
joe rogan
Yeah, we can go back and watch this on DBR. Well, let's watch it now.
unidentified
So we can start it wherever you want.
brendan schaub
Bring it!
joe rogan
Bring it.
So Joe Schilling already fought?
unidentified
Yeah, the whole thing's done.
joe rogan
Wow, that's crazy.
It's not even 8 o'clock.
Yeah, it's like a four-hour event.
But Denver...
brendan schaub
It's in Denver.
That's weird.
They're only an hour.
joe rogan
Okay, well, let's see it.
jamie vernon
I should probably start with the main card, though, right?
brendan schaub
Or do you want to watch the four hours?
joe rogan
Yeah, well, we can do whatever the fuck we want now.
We got power, Jamie.
brendan schaub
Yeah, dawg.
joe rogan
Glory Kickboxing.
This podcast is going to morph into a fight companion because my good friend Joe Schilling is fighting on that card and he's in the main event against Jason Willness who's a bad motherfucker from Holland.
Two really, really good kickboxers in both world championship level.
Joe Schilling, of course, he's been world champion.
He beat Artem Levin, who's the current Glory world champion.
He won that fucking crazy four-man tournament.
brendan schaub
Crazy.
joe rogan
Artem Levin, man, those guys, they had to fight, was it three times or four times in a day?
Three times, right?
brendan schaub
Three times.
joe rogan
Horrible kickboxing fights.
brendan schaub
He had some rough fights.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, man.
The first one.
Oof.
With Simon Marcus, where it went to the fourth round.
At three rounds, they were a draw, so they went to a fourth round, and Schilling knocked him out in the fourth round.
It was fucking crazy.
That was round one.
Can we get some volume, Jamie?
I don't think...
Where do you want me to start?
brendan schaub
This is one of the early ones.
jamie vernon
This is just the whole four-hour event.
joe rogan
I've got to figure out where the event starts.
Four hours, Jesus Christ.
That's a lot of chaos.
Let's get this screen over here.
Give us the data.
You can't do that with this.
You can't?
I'm using the computer for the video.
Oh, that's right.
Kevin Von Nostrand.
brendan schaub
A lot of Denver boys on this card being in Denver.
joe rogan
This is a tough place to fight.
brendan schaub
Denver can be tricky.
joe rogan
When you're, well, not like Mexico City.
Mexico City is the trickiest of tricky.
That's why it's going to be interesting to see the Cain Velasquez Verdun rematch.
brendan schaub
In Brazil?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Are they going to do it in Brazil?
I don't think that's confirmed.
Is that confirmed?
brendan schaub
I'm pretty sure it's confirmed.
I feel like you would know better than me.
joe rogan
Well, I don't think it is, honestly.
brendan schaub
I feel like it is.
joe rogan
I talked to Javier Mendez.
brendan schaub
How long ago?
joe rogan
Javier Mendez the other day.
brendan schaub
Okay.
joe rogan
It's a couple days ago.
brendan schaub
Man, I thought I was in my show.
joe rogan
I hear Mauro Ranallo!
I like his commentary on these events.
He's great.
Me too.
He's gotten so good from doing Showtime, boxing, doing the Floyd Mayweather fights.
brendan schaub
He's really, really good.
joe rogan
He's excellent.
brendan schaub
I love the Showtime crew.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
This feller with the tattoo on his back trained with us in Denver at Grudge, J-Ho.
joe rogan
I like that tattoo.
That's dope.
It's American as fuck, son!
brendan schaub
Super American.
unidentified
Got a goddamn John American flag on his back!
joe rogan
You were talking about nature, being a motherfucker, watching the...
unidentified
Bro!
brendan schaub
Oh my god, I had to turn it off, man.
I don't do well seeing animals die.
joe rogan
Horrible shit.
brendan schaub
Horrible shit, man.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I saw this mountain goat getting chased by a snow leopard.
Snow leopard chased him all the way down the cliff.
Grabbed him by the ass, about to eat him anus first.
He got away.
Instead of dealing with death and the fucking snow leopard, a fool just jumped in the river, died, committed suicide.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
Baby deer, just born, and this fucking wild pack of dogs is coming, the mom pieces out.
This baby deer can barely stand.
Ate, done.
It's intense, man.
Nature does not fuck around.
joe rogan
More than half of all the moose and deer that get killed in Canada, they get killed right after they're born by bears.
brendan schaub
Dude, I was depressed as fuck.
joe rogan
Wolves, coyotes, shit like that, right after they're born.
You know, that's a big thing, too, about grain.
You know, a lot of people think that they want to live a life where they're not involved in any death, and that's noble.
You know, you don't want to cause any animal suffering.
I get it.
I totally understand that idea.
Even though I hunt and even though I eat meat, I totally get why they feel like that, but...
There's a reality to commercial grain, and one of the realities of commercial grain is, you know those things, the combines, those things that they churn up, that they cut the wheat with?
Those things are indiscriminate.
They kill everything that's on the ground.
They kill rabbits, and they kill a lot of fawns, too, because fawns, when they're young, when they're newborn, what they like to do is stay put.
So if there's anything coming, what they do is they just stay put, and they kind of hide.
And they get ground up by the combine.
It's super common.
Rabbits, rodents, ground nesting birds, all of them get ground up in those things.
There's almost no way, unless you're growing your own food and you're growing your own vegetables, And you're there for the whole process.
You make your old compost.
There's almost no way to leave no footprint.
brendan schaub
How about that elk you shot you just posted today?
What's the deal with that thing?
joe rogan
I shot it.
brendan schaub
What was it?
joe rogan
Wednesday morning.
brendan schaub
5,000 pounds?
joe rogan
1,000 pounds?
brendan schaub
Enormous.
joe rogan
It's a big animal.
brendan schaub
Literally a giant animal.
joe rogan
I'll show you another picture that's even more crazy of it.
brendan schaub
What did you shoot him with?
A bazooka?
joe rogan
A bow and arrow.
brendan schaub
Straight bow and arrow?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Yeah, man.
A lot of work went into that.
brendan schaub
A lot of skill with a bow and arrow.
joe rogan
Yeah, that for sure.
brendan schaub
I respect a bow and arrow more.
Well, it's a lot of dangers.
joe rogan
Look at that.
You gotta look at how big it is when it's hanging off of a tree when we're cleaning it.
You kind of get a sense of how big it really is.
That's how we got into a truck too.
brendan schaub
He's huge.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He's probably...
joe rogan
It's a thousand pound animal.
It's enormous.
And they get bigger.
There's some of it like twelve, even fourteen hundred pounds.
They're really enormous ones, especially at Tohono Ranch.
And by the way, they're not even the biggest.
Moose are even bigger than them.
Moose are giant, dude.
There's moose in the Yukon that are eighteen hundred pounds.
brendan schaub
Dude, that thing is fucking huge.
joe rogan
Imagine something twice as big as that.
That's a moose in the Yukon.
Literally twice as big.
brendan schaub
Then what do you guys hang it, then you and your friend cut it?
joe rogan
Well, first you back the truck to it, and then they put it into the back of a pickup truck.
And then we took it to a cooler, like a walk-in cooler, and then the real work begins.
Start quartering it and taking pieces off of it.
brendan schaub
And you brought it home?
joe rogan
I brought most of it home.
Some of it is at a butcher shop that's getting...
Turn into sausages and shit.
Want some elk sausage?
brendan schaub
Yeah, I'm down with some elk sausage.
joe rogan
High protein, son.
Might wake up in the middle of the night with predator dreams, though.
brendan schaub
Dude, I'm not mad about that.
When you shoot a thing like that, how long does it take for it to die?
joe rogan
That was pretty instant.
It was a perfect scenario.
It was dead within a minute.
But, you know, that's one of the things about the discipline of...
Of getting better at dealing with the nerves, getting better at aiming, making sure your archery skills are on point, or your rifle skills for that matter.
Like rifle, you could injure an animal rifle hunting too.
Super, super important that you work really hard on it.
It's also just so fucking nerve-wracking, man.
unidentified
Really?
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
Well, this is my thing though, with that fucking giant elk, if, let's say you nick it, you miss, or whatever.
joe rogan
And it gets around at you?
brendan schaub
It heads your way?
joe rogan
It's your ass.
brendan schaub
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah, you're fucked.
If it decides to, oh yeah.
brendan schaub
I'll slap that shit off.
joe rogan
Oh, you think you will.
Do you see the antlers?
brendan schaub
I did see the antlers.
joe rogan
Dude, it's a tree.
It's got a tree growing up.
brendan schaub
I'll go behind a tree, bro.
I don't get why it's so tough.
joe rogan
If you could go behind a tree, you could pull it off.
brendan schaub
Just keep going around the tree, old school style.
joe rogan
If you got stuck in an open area for some reason, He got to you first.
brendan schaub
You're getting fucked up.
joe rogan
You're getting fucked up.
It happens.
It's not that common because they're usually scared of people.
They try to get the fuck away from you.
Where it really happens is more with bears.
With bears, it can really happen for sure.
brendan schaub
And moose, right?
Aren't moose aggressive as shit?
joe rogan
Well, they're definitely aggressive if you wound them.
Rinella, Steve Rinella, my friend from that show Meat Eater, he got run over by a fucking moose on his show.
Dude, it was crazy.
He told me about it after the fact, and I watched it on TV. Like, the way he described it, it sounded crazy, but then watching it, you're like, oh my god.
He shot the moose, the moose went down, he thought the moose was dead.
Came up on it, and then the moose got up, and he went, oh shit, he's alive.
And he went to shoot him again, and the gun misfired.
Which is so rare.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's so rare that you pull the trigger and nothing happens.
So he had to rechamber another round.
And in the process, this moose comes behind him and sends him flying.
And there was blood on him and he couldn't figure out if it's his blood or the moose's blood.
He's like, he's feeling his body to see if he's been punctured.
And he got nailed by a big ass animal.
brendan schaub
One for the moose.
joe rogan
One for the moose.
brendan schaub
So did the moose get away?
joe rogan
No.
brendan schaub
Of course not.
joe rogan
No, no, no, no.
My buddy Ryan was there.
Ryan Callahan put a bullet into him.
unidentified
What happened?
joe rogan
We lose our feed?
Let's move ahead anyway.
So, you know, nature being dangerous, nature being ruthless.
We're so insulated from it.
That's why people have these beautiful ideas of what animals are and how people fit into the food chain.
We're so used to getting our dirty work done for us.
brendan schaub
This is true.
You got to bring me some time, man.
joe rogan
Oh, I got you.
You want to come?
I'm sending Everlast out.
Everlast, totally unrelated.
He didn't even know that I got back from hunting.
And he sent me a text saying that he wants to hunt.
And he wants to find someone that will take him through it.
And so I set him up with this guy, Brian Meadows, who was my guide this past weekend, or one of my guides.
And he's one of the guys that works there.
There's a bunch of really good guides that work at this one ranch.
And he's going to do a thing with him where he takes them out, shows them how to shoot, shows them how to sight in the rifle, and then they're going to go hunt pigs.
brendan schaub
How long is this?
unidentified
Pigs?
joe rogan
A couple days, yeah.
unidentified
Fuck, man.
joe rogan
What, you don't like pigs?
brendan schaub
I want something a little more dangerous, you know what I'm saying?
joe rogan
You ever see a wild boar before?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Dude, they have wild boars on this ranch.
brendan schaub
In Texas?
joe rogan
Tusks, no.
Tohono Ranch.
It's up north.
North of here, like an hour and a half.
Not far at all.
They have some photos.
I'll show you some after the show.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
unidentified
Ridiculous wild boars.
brendan schaub
I just need to be a little scared, you know what I'm saying?
Otherwise, it's not fun.
joe rogan
Wild boars sound like monsters.
We were there, the first time I was ever there, we were passing by these really thick grasses, like high, tall grasses, like weeds and grasses.
It was like four or five feet tall.
You couldn't see inside of it, but you knew there were pigs in there.
And so we're walking down this dirt road really slow and quiet, so they don't even know we're there.
And we hear them fighting, like, wah!
It sounds like there's demons in there tearing each other apart.
unidentified
They're fighting for some reason.
joe rogan
They're making all these crazy boar noises.
I was freaked out, dude.
I was definitely freaked out by wild boars.
Did you see that movie, that TV show Game of Thrones?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
The fucking king got killed by a wild boar.
brendan schaub
Giant boar.
joe rogan
That's how he got him.
brendan schaub
I've seen like one Game of Thrones.
unidentified
Oh, damn.
joe rogan
That dude just got dropped.
We don't even know who's fighting.
Who's the guy in the orange trunks?
brendan schaub
That's the Denver kid.
Can't remember his name though.
This is over.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's jacked up.
Damn, that kid's good.
Little hairy armpits though, huh?
brendan schaub
Yeah, you gotta trim those up, man.
joe rogan
That's old school.
I like that.
unidentified
I like that.
joe rogan
What does this bush look like?
Probably ridiculous.
brendan schaub
See that dick, my man.
So you see that doctor in the ring?
They just show him with glasses?
Check this story out.
joe rogan
There's Bang.
brendan schaub
There's Bang.
No, that doctor on the left.
Check this out.
unidentified
Uh oh.
joe rogan
You gonna get in trouble right now?
brendan schaub
No, not at all.
joe rogan
Okay.
brendan schaub
Horrible story though.
joe rogan
Jamie, do we have any more of these things?
We have regular coffee, don't we?
Didn't you make regular coffee?
brendan schaub
I used some myself.
joe rogan
Just coffee, no butter, no bullshit.
brendan schaub
So that doctor, right?
He goes on a family vacation.
Wife, three kids.
Peep it.
Wife, three kids, and fucking Subaru Outback, whatever the hell it was.
They go, he's in Wyoming, they go, don't drive, there's a flash flood warning.
He goes, ah, fuck it, we can get through it.
Drives, flash flood warning through this thing, takes the car over.
Entire family dies except for him.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
Three kids.
Three little kids and the wife.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
I'm just full of fucking...
You're the worst today.
Who brought the good news beer?
Hey man, I didn't know they were going to show the fucking guy.
joe rogan
Oh Jesus, you didn't have to tell the whole story.
brendan schaub
It's intense, right?
joe rogan
That's pretty intense.
brendan schaub
So then Shane Carwin and a bunch of us did like a fundraiser for him.
Ugh, horrible man.
joe rogan
Again, nature is a cruel, cruel bitch.
brendan schaub
Nature does not give a fuck.
joe rogan
We found an elk that got murked by another elk.
brendan schaub
Damn it.
Elk on Elk crime?
joe rogan
Elk on Elk crime.
brendan schaub
That's rare, right?
joe rogan
Nope.
We're all super common.
They fight to the death sometimes.
unidentified
God, dog.
joe rogan
They stab each other with their giant antlers.
That's what the antlers are for.
But occasionally, you know, sometimes they just get scarred up and they have cuts on their foot.
Yeah, I've seen them like headbutting shit on TV. Maybe rams, because they tangle antlers, like deer and elk and moose, they tangle antlers.
That's what the antlers are for.
brendan schaub
I'm trying to suck on those antlers for that, what is it, IGF-1 or some shit people were doing?
joe rogan
You want the velvet.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I want to suck on that velvet.
joe rogan
Yeah, the velvet, deer velvet and elk velvet, it was like a real hot property a while ago.
unidentified
Super hot.
joe rogan
It was such a hot property that what they were doing was at the Sevier.
There were farms in Alberta where they were growing this shit.
They were growing elk just to use their velvet.
And then the process, for whatever reason, became less and less valuable to people.
And the amount, that stevia is super weak.
Just pour a bunch in there like it's sugar.
That was like the worst stevia.
Jamie got it from the dollar store.
brendan schaub
God damn it, Jamie.
joe rogan
So this guy spent like a million dollars investing in this elk farm thinking he's going to cash in on this deer velvet.
brendan schaub
On the spraying shit?
joe rogan
Yeah, from the elk.
And nobody gives a fuck.
brendan schaub
That's a terrible idea.
joe rogan
Well, he thought it was going to be a gangbuster business, but the business dropped right after he bought it.
brendan schaub
Is this the same guy that opened up a fucking all-black yoga studio in Seattle?
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
Oh, those poor fucks.
They're getting attacked.
They're getting attacked online, too.
brendan schaub
Damn, they showed this fool's record, said three and five.
joe rogan
That's a weird thing, you know?
That's tough.
Like, that's bang on bang, you know?
Bang bang on bang.
He's that guy that, um...
This guy's tough, too, man.
brendan schaub
That guy's three and five, they said.
joe rogan
He's tough.
The guy bang on bang is the guy that, um...
What is his name?
Um...
Who did he fight?
He fought somebody recently and had a really good fight.
I'm trying to remember.
But he fought Raymond Daniels, and Raymond Daniels hit him with that spinning, flying 360 sidekick to the face.
brendan schaub
Love it.
joe rogan
Yeah, he jumped with the front leg sidekick, like a flying sidekick, and then he touches you with that and spins and clipped him right on the chin and sent him to La La Land.
unidentified
Oof.
joe rogan
But Embank's tough as fuck, man.
The other guy I think is from L.A. I think he's a, uh, he might be from the yard.
I think.
Oh shit, nice knee.
brendan schaub
How much do these boys make?
joe rogan
Not that much money, man.
I'm sure Shilling makes good money.
brendan schaub
Is Shilling making good money tonight, being a headliner?
Does anyone know or no?
joe rogan
I don't know.
We're guessing.
I'm just guessing.
You know what?
I just root for glory.
I love kickboxing.
I've always loved kickboxing.
I love Muay Thai too.
I root for lion fight too.
brendan schaub
I almost watch every lion fight, every glory.
joe rogan
I watch every one of these.
brendan schaub
Me too, man.
I don't miss much.
joe rogan
Especially Lion Fight.
I like Lion Fight because they use elbows.
brendan schaub
I like Lion Fight because a lot of times there's a lot of new guys on there and they go for fucking broke, man.
joe rogan
They seem to get a lot of high-level Thai guys, too.
brendan schaub
Correct.
And they fly them in against an American or something.
joe rogan
Joe Nawad.
Have you seen Nawad fight?
Jesus Christ.
He's nasty.
brendan schaub
I know we've said it before, that TIFF time bomb, man.
joe rogan
She's very good.
brendan schaub
If we could just teach her some takedown defense, she got one on 115. Yeah, she's very good.
Enjoy that, ladies.
Her vs.
unidentified
Joanna?
brendan schaub
She talked some shit about Joanna's stand-up, too.
joe rogan
She said she was basic.
brendan schaub
Ooh, basic bitch!
unidentified
We got something.
brendan schaub
Look at me trying to start something.
joe rogan
What are you having?
Diet Coke, bitch?
Basic bitch.
brendan schaub
Stupid basic bitch.
joe rogan
What do you got?
A fucking blueberry muffin with your coffee, you basic bitch?
unidentified
Is there anything worse than called a basic bitch if you're a girl?
joe rogan
It's pretty ruthless, man.
Well, being called anything.
Having someone define you.
But having someone limited defining you like that.
Define you.
You're limited.
It's hard.
It's hard out there.
It's hard out there.
unidentified
It's the worst.
joe rogan
Yeah, man.
It's the worst.
brendan schaub
Enjoy your coffee, you basic bitch.
joe rogan
But for a girl, though, does a girl have to be more than basic, or can she be basic and hot?
brendan schaub
That's tough.
Well, see the hot factor, you know?
joe rogan
Well, yeah, man.
It's like, that's nature right there.
brendan schaub
That is, man.
People want to hate on it.
joe rogan
Nature likes that hip-to-waist ratio.
brendan schaub
Hell yeah, we do.
joe rogan
Nature's a big fan of titties.
They're universally accepted.
It's not like there's a place in the world where you have a perfect set of tits and people go, ugh, get those out of here.
There's not a single country where men don't look at juicy tits and go, oh yeah.
They're totally useless.
Juicy tits.
They don't do anything for you.
brendan schaub
They don't make sense.
joe rogan
They don't increase pleasure unless you're fucking them, unless you're titty fucking.
But you see them and your brain goes, oh yeah.
brendan schaub
It's weird, isn't it?
joe rogan
It's nature.
brendan schaub
There's bags of fat.
joe rogan
Bags of fat with nipples that you can suck on, and if they have weight to them, and the girl's riding you, and you can hoist them up and suck on them.
Oh, everything gets so exciting.
brendan schaub
Why?
Because of nature.
They do nothing.
They do nothing.
joe rogan
Nature wants you to have a wife that has some big ol' titties so that when your kids need breast milk, these titties are down to produce.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
Big ass titties?
Dudes are like, yes.
joe rogan
You need fat, you need big hips and fat asses and legs that look like they can run and jump so you have kids that inherit those traits.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
If you see a girl with weird hips and her ass is flat and she walks with a stumble, you're like, oh, no, no, no, no, no.
brendan schaub
Let's beat it, basic bitch.
I call them basic bitches.
joe rogan
Beat it with your flat feet.
brendan schaub
Your flat feet.
Flat ass.
joe rogan
Why can't you walk straight?
brendan schaub
Flat ass?
There's nothing worse than a flat ass.
joe rogan
Yeah, I don't mind if a girl has small breasts.
brendan schaub
No, we'll figure it out.
joe rogan
There's a lot of really hot girls that have small breasts.
brendan schaub
We'll have money.
We'll figure that out.
joe rogan
Well, it's not even that.
brendan schaub
You know what I'm saying?
If he gets serious enough, I'll cover this.
joe rogan
Would you, though?
Would you want to?
unidentified
100%.
Hey!
brendan schaub
Shop sponsor!
joe rogan
You take that over...
What would you take, though?
If you had the option between a girl with a really nice ass and nice legs and small, natural breasts, or a girl with a pretty decent ass, pretty decent legs, but big, fake titties.
brendan schaub
Bro, ass all day, because I can fix the titties.
Because they haven't...
joe rogan
What if she didn't want to fix the titties?
What if that's a deal-breaker?
brendan schaub
I'm going to have to move on.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
I'm just kidding.
I'm not that fucking mean.
joe rogan
You are not kidding.
You just said...
brendan schaub
I'm not kidding if you see my girl.
She looks like she's from planet Pluto.
But the thing...
It's so fucked up.
But the thing is, they haven't figured out a good way to make ass implants.
Like, you see a fake ass?
It's the worst thing you've ever seen.
joe rogan
There's a difference, man.
There's a difference.
The ass thing is like...
There's factors, right?
The titty factor is like the nurturing factor.
Like, that's the attraction.
That she'll be good at nurturing.
She has breasts for...
But the ass thing is like an athletic body.
It's like an exciting body.
Oh, Embang's getting fucked up.
This dude who's three and five is teeing off.
brendan schaub
He said, bitch, I'm four and five, you basic bitch.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, yeah.
He's four and five tonight.
brendan schaub
Four and five, motherfucker.
joe rogan
I like the fact...
unidentified
Oh!
joe rogan
Oh, damn.
I like the fact...
He's done.
I like the fact that they throw knees.
I do like that.
I'm glad they can still throw knees.
And I think they're allowed to hold only with one hand, though.
That's it.
This fight's over.
He's taking it.
brendan schaub
He's done, done.
Yeah, let's go ahead and call this a day, everybody.
joe rogan
Wow, he's standing up.
brendan schaub
Worst knee I've ever seen.
Overeem.
Fujita.
unidentified
Oh.
brendan schaub
Remember that one?
I thought he killed him.
Overeem killed a guy.
joe rogan
Overeem Teixeira.
Did you ever see that one?
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
Ever time Teixeira with the crazy dreadlocks?
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
He hits with a knee and that dude was like he went down like he was dead.
brendan schaub
Dude, Fujita, he was in the ring like, there it goes, faces in cave, like he was so fucked up.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
And that's Uber Reem.
We're not talking about normal Overeem now, where it's like, oh, we don't know if he's going to win.
We're talking about fucking Japan Overeem.
Good luck with that, everybody.
joe rogan
Japan Overeem, once he hit that, like, K-1 Grand Prix heavyweight status.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
The fuck is going on?
joe rogan
They dug up Nazis that had special science.
brendan schaub
Just some shit.
joe rogan
They brought it into the lab.
Well, this dude fought very well.
What is his name?
Do we know Jamie?
brendan schaub
Good for him, man.
joe rogan
Yeah.
I've seen this dude fight before.
He's good.
That was like a big victory.
That was very impressive.
Ombang took a beating.
brendan schaub
There's that doctor, bro.
joe rogan
Looks like Ari Shafir.
brendan schaub
Got his ear pierced.
joe rogan
Well...
brendan schaub
Maybe he's wiling out.
joe rogan
I'm sure he is.
He's got some weird chains on his neck, too.
Open chest.
Hey, he's trying to make it happen.
How dare you?
brendan schaub
Dude, if I was like Joe Rogan, Scrooge, McDuckrich, I'm hiring scientists to build fake asses like no other.
joe rogan
You don't want a fake ass, though.
brendan schaub
What happens if a girl has a flat ass?
joe rogan
Tough life.
It's hard out there.
You don't breed.
Just like what happens if, you know, in the wild, what happens if you have unfavorable characteristics?
brendan schaub
You get ate up, ass first.
joe rogan
That's how it goes.
brendan schaub
Bro, but what if we could prevent that?
joe rogan
It's the way of the world.
It's the way of the world.
But you can't prevent that with a piece of plastic.
The way they're going to be prevented, no, no, no.
You can give the illusion that you're preventing it, but you know that ass is fake.
It's the same thing with lips.
Lips, you can't do to lips what you did to tits.
They found a crazy loophole with tits, and it works.
They snuck in, they snuck in with the tit implants, and everybody's like, well, hey, we could do it there, we could do it everywhere.
But you can't.
It only works on women's tits.
It doesn't work on guys' tits.
brendan schaub
Dude, I'm not mad at the women's...
joe rogan
If a guy gets tit implants...
brendan schaub
Women's lips.
joe rogan
Girls don't want that shit.
brendan schaub
Some women's lips, I'm not mad at them.
They get a couple...
joe rogan
Okay, we're going to have to talk off the air.
brendan schaub
We are.
We really are.
joe rogan
This is nonsense.
brendan schaub
This is craziness, bro.
joe rogan
Who is this young gentleman here?
I've seen him fight before.
brendan schaub
Not a full crowd yet.
This isn't the main card, is it?
joe rogan
No, no, no.
Robert Thomas, Jeffrey.
This is early in the card.
This is early.
brendan schaub
22. Youngster.
My boy on the right is jacked at 34. I think he's flexing.
Makes sense, though.
joe rogan
Don't you think he's flexing?
He's got a beautiful beard, though, and a mohawk.
That's rare in fighters.
brendan schaub
He looks fresh off the set of 300. Look at him.
joe rogan
I think they're going to fix it with gene therapy, dude.
That's the real fix.
This plastic they shove in your ass and make your ass stick out isn't fooling anybody.
The same thing with your lips.
Like, why are your lips bigger than all the surrounding tissue?
That doesn't make any sense.
brendan schaub
They fool me with the lips.
They fool me, bro.
joe rogan
Might be a little bit basic.
brendan schaub
You know what?
I might be a basic bitch.
joe rogan
I like lips.
I think girls' lips are really important.
When you're kissing a girl and you feel...
brendan schaub
Fuck yes, for many reasons.
joe rogan
But if you're feeling a rubber thing under there, I can't think that that would be good.
It just looks weird, too.
brendan schaub
Not if it's done right.
joe rogan
Okay.
Maybe I'm wrong.
brendan schaub
There's a lot of good doctors out there.
joe rogan
I hope so.
But I think that what you're seeing now is like...
It's the beginning.
When they thought they could put feathers on people and have them jump off cliffs and it didn't work out.
brendan schaub
It's a horrible idea.
joe rogan
No, well, eventually it became an airplane.
Like, somebody had to keep trying with that thought until they got it right, and now, you know, you get on a Virgin Airlines jet to Boston, and you fucking got the beautiful red mood lighting, you have yourself a champagne.
It all started from some asshole with a bunch of feathers who thought he could jump off a cliff.
unidentified
True.
joe rogan
It has to start there.
Right now, these girls that you're looking at with these crazy fake lips and these plastic plates in their asses that make their ass tick out, what they are is the dude with the feather jumping off the cliff.
And their unfortunate demise when they get tangled up in the branches of the tree below, their unfortunate demise will make people innovate.
brendan schaub
True.
I'm with you, man.
I hope I'm around for that.
joe rogan
What do we got here, Jamie?
Oh, damn.
This dude from Canada just landed a beautiful knee to the body.
So we're watching these fights.
If you're watching these at home, you might not even be able to...
There's no way you're going to sync this up.
There's no way.
But we'll try to sync it up.
Once we get to Joe Schilling, stitch him up.
Who is a little bit later on the card.
Once we get to stitch him up, we'll tell you exactly what time it is, and you can sync this thing up later.
brendan schaub
This fight's in, I think, McNichols Arena?
That's old school, man.
joe rogan
Is it?
brendan schaub
Super old school.
joe rogan
Where's McNichols?
brendan schaub
That's where one of the first UFC's was at.
joe rogan
Do you miss Denver at all in any way?
brendan schaub
You know what?
No.
joe rogan
Wow.
brendan schaub
It's weird, right?
I go back and I feel like I'm in a country western, man.
Denver people are going to hate me, but it's whatever, bro.
It's true.
joe rogan
It's my favorite spot.
brendan schaub
Oh, there's some great spots, and I have great family and friends, but you could not pay me to move back there, man.
joe rogan
Really?
unidentified
I will never leave L.A. It's my number one choice.
brendan schaub
Comedy works.
joe rogan
Outside of California, Colorado's my number one choice.
brendan schaub
You used to live there.
joe rogan
Yep.
Evergreen, Boulder, or Denver.
Those are my three spots.
brendan schaub
You love that nature shit.
joe rogan
I love that nature shit.
unidentified
I don't, bro.
joe rogan
You don't like it?
brendan schaub
I'll hunt with you, kill some shit, but then I want to go back to Marina Del Rey.
Jump in my Porsche and do some weird shit.
joe rogan
As I've gotten older, I appreciate nature way more and more.
I feel like it's something that I just didn't appreciate enough until I got older.
I think when I was younger, I was always concentrating entirely on Doing whatever I'm trying to do, whether it's fighting or getting into comedy, getting my career in line, becoming a professional comedian, and then all the things that I've ever done.
I've always been concentrated more on them than anything else.
And then as I got older, I started, well, what brings me pleasure?
I started thinking, like, what do I enjoy being around?
And one of the things that I enjoyed being around was beautiful nature, like to see a mountain.
Like, I remember...
Going to, um...
Jesus, I don't know where the fuck it was, like, one of the first...
You know what, here, one of the big ones was going to the Aspen Comedy Festival, man.
I went to the Aspen Comedy Festival, I want to say, like, 2002?
I think it was, like, 2002?
And I was in Aspen, and I was driving with this dude who worked for the festival, And he was telling me how he has elk off of his back porch.
I didn't know elk screamed.
I had no idea.
I didn't know a goddamn thing about elk back then.
They scream.
Elk bugling?
You never heard of elk bugling?
brendan schaub
No, man.
joe rogan
I recorded some of it from my trip.
This is real shit that happened this week.
brendan schaub
Hey, Elk, make it easier to kill you.
They scream.
joe rogan
Oh, they're not easy to kill, man.
Especially with a bow.
They're hard.
But what it is is that they're trying to get some pussy.
So they call out to women to let them know that they're ready to fuck.
And they also call out to men.
They're ready to challenge them.
And they do battle.
I'll show you some pictures of this dead one that they found.
It got stabbed up.
He got murked by some other fucking bull.
And they're big.
These are a thousand pound animals.
brendan schaub
Just like the one you killed.
joe rogan
And bigger.
As big as the one I killed.
The one that died was bigger than the one I killed.
Bigger.
brendan schaub
Who killed him?
joe rogan
Some badass bitch.
Listen to this though.
This is what it sounds like.
brendan schaub
I hope it sounds like a grown man yelling.
joe rogan
Hold on a second.
Here it is.
Listen to this.
You hear that?
That's the guide trying to call them.
He's making like a cow call.
But listen to the sound that they make when they respond.
It's like a monster.
That high-pitched shit, that's the guy making the call out.
Now listen to them.
You hear that?
brendan schaub
- Almost sounds like orca whales. - Damn.
joe rogan
They scream at each other like that.
That really loud one was the guide right next to us with the call.
That's one of them screaming.
brendan schaub
Damn.
joe rogan
That was an elk.
unidentified
How weird, right?
brendan schaub
Then do you listen to that and find out where they're at and just destroy them?
joe rogan
Well, you've got to sneak up on them.
brendan schaub
Yeah, but at least you know where they're at.
joe rogan
You sneak up on them, and then you hide behind stuff, and you make calls like a cow, so they think they're going to get some pussy.
brendan schaub
Fucking basic bitch elks.
unidentified
Too easy, man.
joe rogan
They come screaming, too, when they come towards you.
That's one of the most nerve-wracking parts about it.
brendan schaub
Because they think they're about to fuck.
joe rogan
Exactly.
brendan schaub
Dick out.
joe rogan
They're like, what's up?
unidentified
What's up?
joe rogan
They come all over themselves.
They piss all over themselves and cum all over themselves.
Their whole underside, when you find them and they're rutting, is just covered with cum and piss.
They're all wet.
brendan schaub
They're looking for a good time.
joe rogan
They're partying.
brendan schaub
Fuck, man.
You guys just, hey, what's up?
Oh, raging boner?
unidentified
Boom.
brendan schaub
Dead, bro.
joe rogan
It is rude.
But it's also how mountain lions find them too.
When we were in Colorado, one of the guides I was with told me that they had found this mountain lion on top of this elk and they found it by following the path that it took once it dragged the elk.
So what he found was like you could see the mountain lion footprints and then you could see the elk footprints and then they collide and then there's no more mountain lion footprints.
Because the mountain lion is riding the elk's back.
So you've got this 1,200 pound elk and this 150 pound cat is on its back biting its neck and it runs like 100, 200 yards with this cat on its back and then it piles up and then the cat eats it and then they catch the cat on top of this thing.
brendan schaub
You know what, man?
I think the reason why I don't get down with nature and mountains and stuff, because I grew up in Denver, man.
So I was going camping all the time.
I was shooting arrows when I was young and shit.
So I'm over it, man.
joe rogan
You're over it.
brendan schaub
I love the ocean.
I can't get enough of the ocean.
joe rogan
Yeah, see, that's it.
You're experiencing the new nature.
Yeah, man.
I mean, the ocean is...
I rented a place in Malibu for like three months.
It was last summer.
And I would wake up every morning just looking at that water going, whoa.
unidentified
Whoa.
brendan schaub
I feel like there's nothing better.
joe rogan
It's crazy.
brendan schaub
Love it.
joe rogan
It's crazy.
It's a crazy view.
And it's a morphing view.
Like in the daytime, it's inviting.
And at nighttime, it's terrifying.
brendan schaub
Terrifying.
joe rogan
Black.
That's the only difference.
The only difference is you can't see.
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Would you ever live in Malibu?
joe rogan
I don't know if it's wise to buy a home next to the water.
I don't know if it's wise to spend several million dollars for a house that's stuck in the sand right in front of the lip of the ocean.
You want to talk about basic bitches?
Like, are you not paying attention to the entirety of the human history that's been recorded about the changing of the Earth's atmosphere and about how, like, you find cities that are underwater.
They're like Roman cities and shit.
Now they're underwater.
Why are they underwater?
Well, they're underwater because the ocean moves.
It's not stuck there.
It's not going to stay exactly where it is.
brendan schaub
If you're looking for an investment 2,000 years from now, yeah, probably don't buy a house in Malibu.
However, for when you're alive, you should be fine, Joe.
You know what I'm saying?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Maybe, but maybe not.
brendan schaub
I can almost guarantee you'll be fine.
joe rogan
How about what happened in Japan?
That shit could happen in Malibu any day.
Any day.
I have a friend who lives in Pacific Palace.
It's got a nice sweet spot up a hill.
And I go, why don't you live by the water?
You got a lot of money.
He goes, tsunamis.
Tsunamis.
I go, really?
He goes, yeah.
He goes, they happen.
He goes, they might not happen, but they happen.
And when they happen, guess what?
What are you going to hear?
Are you going to hear a horn in the middle of the night?
I sleep with a sound machine.
I have a sound machine next to my bed, play sounds of birds and shit so I can sleep.
That's what he said.
He goes, I'm not drowning to death.
brendan schaub
God damn, that's dark.
I mean, fuck, bro.
I live right on, you know, I live on the marina.
The way they sold me there, like if a tsunami comes, this thing tilts.
It tilts.
I said, really?
Yeah, I'll take it.
joe rogan
It tilts.
brendan schaub
I'll take it.
joe rogan
Save all that tilting shit.
It's going to fill up with water.
brendan schaub
Nah, I'm high up, man.
joe rogan
The real tsunami, the real bad motherfuckers, the continent changers, it's going to drown it.
It's going to be all underwater.
The idea of 500 feet of water up and down, that's nothing.
In the history of the world, that shit's happened thousands of times.
unidentified
Bro, to think you're not a real estate agent, for fuck's sake.
joe rogan
I'd be like, look, what you really want to do is you want to be on top of the mountain looking down, and you want to have a raft up there.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
You've got to have, like, Noah.
Fuck, bro.
brendan schaub
I don't know if that's a reason not to live by the beach.
joe rogan
No.
brendan schaub
The beach is awesome.
joe rogan
Still awesome.
If you were like super baller, like Richard Branson type character, you really ideally want two houses.
You want a house at the top of the mountain.
No, you want three.
You want a house at the top of the mountain.
You want a fat place in the city.
unidentified
True.
joe rogan
And then you want a spot on the water.
brendan schaub
That's how you want to do it, man.
joe rogan
If you're going to be a fucking super baller.
brendan schaub
Scrooge McDuck style.
joe rogan
Yeah, but you got to have like, you know, fucking shell oil type money.
You think?
If you want to do it right.
A lot of money in having three mansions.
unidentified
Oh!
brendan schaub
I'm not talking about mansions.
Maybe you have a condo downtown, like a dope-ass penthouse.
joe rogan
That's a good move, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
I'm not a big fan of living downtown because of the goddamn traffic, but, you know...
brendan schaub
It's tough, man.
joe rogan
It's brutal.
brendan schaub
It's brutal to get down there.
joe rogan
Downtown's ruthless.
brendan schaub
I would never live down there.
joe rogan
But it's kind of dope.
You could walk around downtown now.
brendan schaub
It's cleaning up, and LA's putting a ton of money into it.
They want it to be the new hot spot, so it's a good place to buy.
joe rogan
They've got to kill bums.
brendan schaub
They're going to have to kill some bums.
They're going to have to kill some bums.
joe rogan
People are like, what the fuck he said?
We're kidding, folks.
We're not kidding.
brendan schaub
I'm not kidding.
If it raises the property value, we're going to have to get rid of him.
No, I'm just kidding.
joe rogan
This guy, first of all, this dude from Canada is a motherfucker, dude.
The guy in the black shorts, is he from Canada?
brendan schaub
He is, right?
joe rogan
Dude, he's badass, man.
This is a tough fight.
That other dude is taking some serious body shots.
Third round here.
I just think that the bum thing is, it's all bullshit aside, you know, obviously I don't think you should kill him, but when you stop and look at him, it's a horrible indictment of how flawed our current system of community is.
That our community allows people to get so disenfranchised.
There's an entire...
Like, a whole ecosystem of people in downtown L.A. I get that.
brendan schaub
I look at them, they make me sad.
joe rogan
I think people don't know what we're talking about.
Like, if they've never seen Skid Row.
Like, these people that are listening to us, oh, you're being so mean about homeless people.
It's a different thing.
brendan schaub
It's like Walking Dead, but imagine all the zombies in one place.
And they will eat your dick off.
For crack.
joe rogan
It is really crazy.
It's one of the craziest things you'll ever see.
brendan schaub
There's a ton of them in Venice, too, man.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
brendan schaub
A ton in Venice.
joe rogan
Yeah.
They get uncomfortable, too, when you're at those Venice beach spots where they gather and, you know, they want money from tourists, so they start begging.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it's rough.
joe rogan
Well, there's a lot of crazy people.
That's really what it is.
It's a mental health issue.
brendan schaub
That gets thrown around a lot for everything, right?
I think some of our mental health.
I think some were just like fuck fuck it man.
joe rogan
Yep.
I think also though saying fuck it though is a bit of a mental health issue.
unidentified
Is it?
brendan schaub
Or is it just called giving up?
joe rogan
I think even that is mental health.
Like don't you think it's healthy to have good friends It's healthy to be a good friend.
It's healthy to be in love.
It's healthy to be fulfilled by your pursuits in life, whether it is your artistic pursuits or athletic pursuits or your career pursuits.
Those are health issues.
It's like, isn't it healthy to exercise, right?
That's a physical health issue.
Actually, he doesn't exercise.
brendan schaub
That's a choice.
joe rogan
Right.
But when you talk and consider physical health, physical health is dependent upon choices.
It's dependent upon dietary choices and it's dependent upon choices that you make as far as how much exercise you do.
And that's your health.
I think mental health is the same thing.
I think there's aspects of mental health that are undeniable just like there's aspects of physical health that are undeniable.
There's people that are born with horrible physical diseases and there's not much they can do physically to overcome those.
There's all sorts of deformities and all sorts of real problems that people have that are physical.
But then there's also people that are just fucking overeating lazy fucks and they develop heart disease.
Well, isn't that a physical health issue?
Well, it most certainly is.
And have that physical health issue manifest itself through choices and decisions and your actions.
So then it becomes a mental health issue as well.
So it's a physical health issue, but it's also a mental health issue because it's your mental health that is out of line that allows your physical health to get so fucked up.
brendan schaub
But also, people's experiences in life, I don't know if I'd say it's a mental health issue where they have an issue with their brain, you know what I'm saying, where it's chemically different.
Sometimes they might not have had the same opportunities as other people and just say, listen, man, fuck this.
Like maybe they lost a family member, maybe they lost their job, and it's like, you know, I'm sick of this shit, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's true.
brendan schaub
I think there's some of that.
joe rogan
But I think that could be considered a mental health issue.
brendan schaub
I have a problem with people chalking up everything as mental health.
Like these shooters, these random shooters, it's always a mental health thing.
joe rogan
Yes.
brendan schaub
Right?
Oh, it's a mental health thing.
joe rogan
You're right.
brendan schaub
Man, that's an easy getaway.
They might just be fucked up, man, bad people.
Can we chalk some things up if people are just evil, man?
joe rogan
We could, but that also is, I think, could be considered a mental health issue.
And I think the word mental health, we get thrown around like, we look at health and disease and issues like that where you're not balanced and in order.
We look at it like, oh, Jimmy caught gonorrhea.
Well, that guy's got a disease, he needs penicillin.
But if you're just a lazy fuck that eats like shit and eventually your heart gives out, you have heart disease, and that is a physical disorder.
It's a physical disorder that came from you not having discipline for whatever reason.
Making poor choices.
So it manifests itself in a physical condition.
It could also manifest itself in a mental condition because you could be at a point where, are we giving up on that feed?
Is that what's going on?
jamie vernon
I got a lot of messages saying that that was the prelims and that the main card is going on now live.
brendan schaub
Oh, nice, on the West Coast.
joe rogan
So it was just the prelims live?
jamie vernon
I had the link from their website and that was what it was playing.
The main card supposedly is live now.
joe rogan
Oh, so when they were saying that we were watching, we were watching the prelims.
Okay, that makes sense.
So, okay, now that we have that, let's put up the card on the...
Okay, cool.
Okay.
But I think the word disease is an issue and the word health is an issue because it's really like we categorize things like health and disease and we get real rigid with how we look at them.
We look at things like health and disease.
People that have disorders, when you have addictions, when you have When you have compulsions, when you have negative behavior that you can't help but keep continuing to repeat over and over again, self-sabotaging behavior, that is a mental health issue.
When you have obsessive, like you're a stalker.
You start stalking a girl.
You won't leave her alone.
You're obsessed with her.
You check her Facebook.
That obsession is a disorder.
You could call it a mental health issue.
You could call it behavioral malfunction.
unidentified
True.
joe rogan
But you're not healthy mentally.
So it is a mental health issue.
If you go into a school and you shoot people, 100% you have a mental health issue.
100%.
100%.
The issue is you can't be mentally healthy and want to go and shoot random people just so people know your name.
You can't want that.
If you want that, you are mentally unwell.
And so I think when we look at things like, oh, it's not his fault, he has a mental health disorder.
Oh, that's just a cop-out.
Well, no, he's responsible for whatever that disorder is, but he most certainly has a disorder.
Like when someone's a rapist, Bill Cosby, okay?
He's got a mental health issue.
It doesn't exonerate him.
It doesn't say that he should be free and no one should prosecute him and he should somehow or another be treated instead of locked up.
No, no, that's not what I'm saying.
But you have to have a mental health issue in order to drug women and fuck them when they're unconscious.
You have to have a total disconnect For feeling about that woman's health, her safety, her physical solidarity, her ability to own her own body and own her own consciousness.
For you to want to bypass that with a pill so you can stick your dick in her, you have to be mentally well.
brendan schaub
What if he was raised that way?
joe rogan
Doesn't matter.
brendan schaub
Doesn't matter.
joe rogan
Because you can be mentally raised to be racist, like we were talking before, or you can be raised in a mental pattern where you're homophobic.
All those are absolutely 100% possible.
But at the end of the day, you're still mentally unwell.
You're mentally unwell because of the way you were raised.
You're mentally unwell in spite of the way you were raised.
It doesn't matter.
You're mentally unwell.
And I think if we look at behavior like...
Overall, what is conducive to a happy experience for you and the people that you encounter?
What is conducive to you being fulfilled in your life and having great friendships and great relationships?
What is conducive to that?
Well, if you move towards that and you try to eliminate all the errors that you keep repeating and making and you recognize those, that's healthy.
brendan schaub
Well, this is the thing, though.
So if I have mental health issues, there's a lot of negative that comes with it, right?
So if I, whatever, have this weird inclination to molest boys or whatever, for whatever reason...
Well, for whatever it is, or to rape girls, right?
It's going to be tough to get help, right?
Because you have this negative connotation with it.
joe rogan
Sure.
brendan schaub
So that's why it keeps going on.
joe rogan
Well, that's certainly a part of it.
brendan schaub
And I'm not promoting any of this fucking bullshit, but I'm just saying there's no safe house for them, right?
They can't go up and be like, hey man, listen, I have this weird fantasy where I fucking love to molest little kids.
People are like, what?
You know what I'm saying?
There's no outlet for them.
joe rogan
It's true.
I mean, to have a fantasy where you victimize small children is like the most taboo and forbidden fantasy ever.
You can't even jerk off to that.
brendan schaub
But if you have that, you're fucked.
unidentified
You can't even pretend.
brendan schaub
You're super fucked.
joe rogan
Well, say if a guy...
Say if you're married, right?
And maybe your wife puts on a few pounds, but you want to stay married, and you don't want to cheat on her, and she doesn't want to have sex anymore, or maybe she's older and she gets the menopause, and you just go into your...
Garage or wherever the fuck you keep your porn, and you whack one off every now and then.
Just whack one off to stay sane.
Everything else is great, but when you're closing your eyes, you're whacking off, and you're looking at porn, you're looking at some dirty girl with a tattoo on her lower back, and she's sucking dick, and you just want to come in her mouth.
brendan schaub
Sure.
joe rogan
See, you're allowed to indulge those fantasies if you're a man.
Like, if you're a guy who has no chance whatsoever...
Of, uh, banging some super hot porn star.
brendan schaub
A ten, yeah.
joe rogan
You could still jerk off watching her fuck.
So that's what you like.
Yeah.
You could still jerk off watching someone just hold her hair and just mouth fuck her.
You can do that and no repercussions.
Like, you could never have sex with that girl ever, but you could jerk off to her having sex and have no repercussions.
brendan schaub
Because that's your taste.
joe rogan
Right.
But if your taste is like young boys, like twinks, like 15-year-old twinks.
brendan schaub
That's gonna be tough, my man.
joe rogan
You have nothing.
Everything is illegal.
It doesn't even mean that you want to go out and have sex with those young boys or you plan on having sex with those boys.
You can't even jerk off to them.
So it leads me to question, what happens if in the future they figure out virtual reality?
They get virtual reality to a point where it's just you can't...
brendan schaub
Anything goes.
joe rogan
Anything goes in virtual reality.
So you have these artificial young boys that blow you.
Will that be illegal?
Because no one's getting hurt there.
These artificial boys are made out of 3D polygons.
They're connected together with some visual video effects engine.
brendan schaub
It's hard to argue because it satisfies the urge, right?
And they're not doing it to actual humans.
joe rogan
Yeah, right.
But you want to eliminate that urge, though.
You want to cut it out of the society.
brendan schaub
Okay, so what do you do?
joe rogan
Kill these guys?
brendan schaub
All right, I'm with you.
Them and the bums.
joe rogan
I think you might have to.
brendan schaub
Them and the bums.
Them and the bums.
See ya.
joe rogan
I wish there was a way to just rewire you.
I mean, in all fairness.
brendan schaub
I bet they do, too.
I bet a lot of people do, who have all those issues.
Of course.
Those real dark people who are unhappy, you don't think they wish they could be rewired?
joe rogan
Sure, man.
Even gamblers.
You ever meet a guy who's a crazy gambler?
brendan schaub
I'll take some rewiring on a few things.
joe rogan
Yeah.
You know, it was really interesting.
Someone was talking to me about this fat guy that I know.
And his wife was saying that it's kind of crazy because...
First of all, that guy, what's his name?
Halsey?
unidentified
Halsey.
joe rogan
That is the biggest 185 pounder.
brendan schaub
That is a large human being.
joe rogan
That guy's gigantic for 185. I like this Michael.
unidentified
Michael Page?
brendan schaub
Yeah, I like that Michael Page.
unidentified
He's ridiculous.
He's fun to watch.
joe rogan
His talents are almost wasted in that division that he's competing against.
He needs to fight a much higher caliber of fighter.
brendan schaub
He's collecting paychecks.
joe rogan
What was I just saying?
What were we just talking about?
brendan schaub
Oh, you have a fat friend.
joe rogan
Oh, and his wife was like, here's the difference between being addicted to anything else.
If you're addicted to cigarettes, you stop smoking cigarettes, and then you kick the habit.
But if you're addicted to food, you have to eat food.
brendan schaub
It's a legit point.
joe rogan
It was a very legit point.
I thought about it and I went, whoa.
brendan schaub
It's a super legit point.
joe rogan
Obviously, I don't have food issues.
I don't have a real food addiction.
But over the last nine days, I quit eating sugar.
Lost six pounds now, as of today.
Six fucking pounds.
And I'm not trying.
Like, I'm just eating normal.
unidentified
I'm doing the same.
brendan schaub
You're not doing more cardio or anything?
unidentified
Nope.
joe rogan
Nope.
Same amount.
Everything's the same.
Workout's the same.
Everything's the same.
brendan schaub
But you were getting your sugar from where?
From these fucking mango things?
joe rogan
No, those are natural.
Oh, the mango things.
Yeah, I thought you were C2O. C2O's delicious and sweet, but it's...
That's natural.
That's just the coconut water.
brendan schaub
If it's from fruit or whatever, you're good.
joe rogan
Yeah, fruit's fine.
I've been eating bananas every day, and I eat oranges and apples.
I eat a lot of fruit.
But, like, those mangoes, those chili mangoes are so goddamn good.
brendan schaub
I haven't ate much today.
I came in, I saw that bag, and I thought, you know what?
YOLO. Fuck this.
YOLO! When's the last time you heard YOLO? I don't know why that came out of my mouth.
I don't know why that came out of my mouth.
I don't even talk like that.
joe rogan
It's got added sugar.
That's the problem.
It's not just the sugar from the dried mangoes.
They put sugar and then...
The chili sauce together, the chili pepper together.
brendan schaub
Mangos from heaven is what I say.
Heaven dust?
Oh, you mean sugar?
I'm fucking addicted, man.
joe rogan
So I go nine days in and I decide I'm going a month in.
I'm going to see what happens when I make it to a month.
brendan schaub
You know what, though?
You're a real disciplined type of dude who can do that.
You know what I'm saying?
You stick something and you're fucking sticking to it.
That's one thing I know about you.
joe rogan
I definitely do.
But what I'm thinking is, while I'm doing this, I'm like, man, I don't even have an issue.
And this is like overwhelming my thoughts, like a lot of the day.
Like where I see like a hot dog with a nice white roll, a white bun, that white bread.
I'm not eating any of that shit.
I'm not eating that.
So I see that hot dog with fucking sauerkraut on it.
Ooh, you ever go to Home Depot and they have the hot dog cart in front of Home Depot?
brendan schaub
Oh, those things are so fucking good.
unidentified
Motherfuckers.
joe rogan
They're getting me.
I'm in there for a hammer.
I'm trying to buy a hammer.
I'm not trying to buy a hot dog.
brendan schaub
Dude.
I end up walking out with that hot dog and a churro.
They got that churro, and I'm like, fuck it.
You know what?
joe rogan
I'll wash it down with a Coke.
Disneyland gets me with them goddamn churros.
brendan schaub
Bro, the churros and the funnel cakes.
I got Mickey Mouse ears on and shit, feeling like shit.
joe rogan
I'm done, dude.
No sugar for this month.
So I'm going to see what happens.
And at the end of the month, I'm going to see how I feel and what I look like.
brendan schaub
But I'm assuming everyone in your household is this way.
Because if they're not, you're going to have troubles.
joe rogan
No, I'm not going to have troubles.
brendan schaub
I used to date a girl who I was trying to eat real healthy, but she literally had crazy genetics.
She would eat fast food every night.
So I'd be like eating fucking, you know, broccoli and chicken.
She's balls deep in a 12-piece chicken nugget.
You know what I'm saying?
It's tough, man.
joe rogan
It is, but when I get it in my head, it doesn't matter.
You can eat pizza right in front of me.
brendan schaub
You're a beast with it.
joe rogan
Well, I just, I have switches.
I have like, okay, now you don't do this anymore, and that's it.
And once I don't do that anymore, I don't do that anymore.
Because then if I do do it, if I give in, that'll permeate itself in the rest of my life.
That'll leak itself into my comedy, leak itself into my workouts, it'll leak itself into everything.
brendan schaub
Do you do that with your social life?
If someone fucks you over or you're dead to me?
joe rogan
Yes.
brendan schaub
I would assume.
joe rogan
As soon as they...
You will run into people that will either sabotage you or do a bad business deal with you or try to fuck you in some way.
And you can't hate them.
I forgive them as a person, but I won't associate with them anymore.
brendan schaub
Ever again?
joe rogan
No.
brendan schaub
Yeah, there's no...
joe rogan
Yeah, no.
No, no.
I mean, you'd have to have some insane apology.
With a real explanation, and then, you know, we probably have to work our way back to a friendship real slow.
But when someone fucks you over, you can't tolerate that.
Because those people become problems, and those people, that's a pattern.
That, like, if you have a friend, and, like, especially, like, you hear about friends going into business together, and then, like, they start a restaurant or something, and one guy fucks off with the cash, and they wind up fighting each other.
My stepdad and his, he had a business partner in an architectural firm, and they beat each other up one day.
brendan schaub
Should have beat each other up.
joe rogan
He came home, he had a black eye, and he was, you know, in his 40s.
And I was a kid, and I was like, well, first of all, I was like, I was fighting back then.
I was like, this bitch has zero skills.
It's like, what did this fight look like?
Because I knew his...
brendan schaub
Basic-ass step-dad.
joe rogan
...the worst.
But it's like, he's a good guy.
He wasn't a bad person.
But I knew the guy he fought with, too.
I'm like, that's even more ridiculous that that guy gave you a black eye.
Because that has to be insane.
brendan schaub
Think how mad they were, though.
joe rogan
They were so mad.
Well, it was a very complicated situation where they had government contracts.
And then the government lost money.
There was a recession and during the recession they canceled a lot of their contracts.
So these guys had put all this time and work and effort into these projects and the projects were pulled out from under them and all their investment was done.
brendan schaub
Super fucked.
joe rogan
It was really bad.
I'm sure there was a lot of blame on both sides and who knows what the fuck happened.
It's weird when you see someone come home.
brendan schaub
Your stepdad got sucker punched.
joe rogan
He's got a black eye.
I'm like, what?
If I was Brendan Shaw, I'd be like, for sure, keep your hands up next time.
For sure, don't let them get that close to you.
Talking shit to each other.
brendan schaub
I saw my dad get in a fight when I was 12. I'm not making this up.
Whatever.
Fucking cars, right?
My dad pulls in front of him.
He pulls in front of my dad.
He gets out.
My dad goes, you want to fucking go?
I'm like, My dad's like this.
joe rogan
Oh no, like an old school Irish boxer?
brendan schaub
I was like, oh no.
I remember being like 10 or 11 and being like, ah, fuck, man.
joe rogan
See, the problem with that is, Nick Diaz can actually fight like that.
brendan schaub
Oh, my dad beat the brakes off this dude, son.
unidentified
Did he?
brendan schaub
Yeah, he was about to throw him off the side of the highway in a leather jacket.
joe rogan
Oh no.
brendan schaub
Yeah, did not fuck around.
joe rogan
When a guy stands out like that, starts doing the old school boxing, one of two things can happen.
He's trying to scare you off, or he's so good with his hands, he just kind of roll at you like, what's up, dude?
brendan schaub
You want some- Yeah, man.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
What you gonna do now?
brendan schaub
It was weird, man.
joe rogan
You're in a bad situation.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what.
For reals, man.
I remember my dad getting out of the car.
I'm like, God damn it.
And then my brother gets out, kicks the guy in the balls from behind.
My brother's probably 12 at the time.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
Christ, your brother kicked a grown man in the balls?
brendan schaub
Grown man in the balls.
joe rogan
That's when it gets really dangerous, because the kid gets involved, and then the father becomes super violent.
brendan schaub
You know what Little Brown was doing?
joe rogan
What was Little Brown?
brendan schaub
Crying in the backseat.
joe rogan
How old were you?
unidentified
Probably like 10 or 11, crying in the backseat.
brendan schaub
You can't be trusted.
If shit goes down, crying.
joe rogan
I never saw my stepdad fight, but I saw him almost get in a fight once.
We got in a minor car accident, like a little fender bender, when I was like 8 or 9 years old.
And it was these young kids in this other car and they got out swearing and yelling and I was like, oh no.
I was so scared.
brendan schaub
So scared.
joe rogan
I was so scared because he wasn't a tough guy either.
brendan schaub
Please tell me you cried.
joe rogan
I felt so vulnerable.
Did you cry or no?
I don't know.
I might have.
I don't think so.
Because I don't think it got to the point where anybody hit anybody.
So I would definitely have cried if they hit each other.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
I would have been terrified.
But that's how people die.
You know, that's how people wind up killing the whole family.
True, man.
Knock the guy out.
The guy falls, hits his head.
You go, we got to get rid of the family.
And they just, they murk your wife.
unidentified
Murk everybody.
joe rogan
Murk your kids.
That shit happens.
You know, you run into the wrong biker gang.
brendan schaub
True, man.
joe rogan
You know, they're messed up and trying to prove their hardness.
brendan schaub
For sure.
joe rogan
Weird shit happens.
You know, you're the wrong race, you know, you're a black guy, and there's a, you know, you have a white girlfriend maybe.
Who the fuck knows, man?
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
Anything can happen.
You know, how about transgender people?
How about a transgender person gets in a car accident with a bunch of fucking amped up dudes?
brendan schaub
Oh, they're fucked.
joe rogan
Yeah.
I mean, and you're on a dirt road somewhere in the middle of nowhere, and you just decide to beat this guy to death.
brendan schaub
Dude, I need a gun.
For reals, man.
joe rogan
If you need a gun.
brendan schaub
I need a fucking gun.
joe rogan
Most people really need a gun.
brendan schaub
Oh, yeah.
That should alarm everybody, because I can fight.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
People need a gun.
joe rogan
It's a weird thing out there.
You could run into the wrong people.
And I've had people say that to me, like, you're so paranoid.
You know, like, why do you want to learn martial arts?
Like, I had this conversation with Marc Maron once about this.
You know, it's like, well, is that really going to happen?
Like, are you really worried about it?
Like, I've seen it.
Like, I know bad people.
I've seen people do bad things to people.
tj kirk
I've seen people hit people when they didn't have to.
brendan schaub
Tim Kennedy said the same thing.
Because I asked him, I'm like, why should I have a gun?
He's like, because if shit goes down, you want to be prepared, man.
He goes, I never go anywhere without a gun.
He goes, because my wife and my kids are depending on me.
He goes, what happened if that guy has a gun, and yeah, I have all these fighting skills, what the fuck am I gonna do?
He goes, I would never let them down.
joe rogan
And he's, you know, world-class fighter.
brendan schaub
World-class.
And he's saying this, I was like, damn, I need a gun.
I tried buying one off the black market.
joe rogan
Why would you do that when you can get one for real?
brendan schaub
From him.
And he was like, get the fuck out of here.
joe rogan
Yeah, don't even say you tried.
brendan schaub
That was a joke.
It was a joke.
joe rogan
Yeah, lie.
We lied.
We just lied?
brendan schaub
Yeah, 100%.
He made fun of me.
joe rogan
But you can get one, you know, legally, fairly easily.
brendan schaub
You got a guy?
You got a guy?
joe rogan
It's not hard.
It's not hard.
Wink, wink, wink.
It's not hard to get a gun in California.
brendan schaub
It's one of the weird things.
joe rogan
It's not hard.
brendan schaub
Do I have to take lessons?
joe rogan
No.
That's what's crazy.
Whose phone is that?
Is that mine or yours?
Definitely not mine.
You don't have to fill out paperwork.
At least you didn't when I did.
I mean, paperwork as far as take a test.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
Just kind of give me the goddamn thing.
joe rogan
It's not hard.
Like, hunter safety.
Like, when you take a hunter safety course, you do most of that online.
And then you go and take, like, a class.
brendan schaub
Is there a way...
unidentified
Ah, class.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I don't want to do that.
I'm going to go black market.
Is there a...
Is there a waiting period?
joe rogan
For what?
brendan schaub
For a gun?
unidentified
Rifle?
joe rogan
Yes.
brendan schaub
Not a rifle.
joe rogan
Federal.
brendan schaub
I don't want a rifle.
joe rogan
For a handgun, for any kind of firearm.
There's a gun.
There's a waiting period.
They have to find out if you're crazy.
They have to find out if you're a felon that's running from the law.
They have to find out if you're really Brennan Shaw.
brendan schaub
Google me, bro.
Give me a goddamn gun.
Google me, bro.
Give me a goddamn gun.
joe rogan
You could get a gun, man.
It wouldn't be any problem.
But Joey Diaz can't get a gun.
Joey Diaz is a felon.
brendan schaub
That makes sense.
joe rogan
Yeah, if you're a felon, you can't get a gun.
brendan schaub
I mean, that's...
joe rogan
Yeah, it's tricky, man.
brendan schaub
I love Joey Diaz, but it makes sense.
joe rogan
If you just look at his record on paper...
brendan schaub
Yeah, it's tough to sell that guy a gun.
joe rogan
Well, it just seems like a...
Questionable mode.
brendan schaub
Legit.
I mean, there's reason for the law.
joe rogan
You watch his podcast.
You ever watch that the morning thing that he does?
brendan schaub
Where he just tokes up?
joe rogan
Gets high, the morning joint.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
Is he still on Periscope?
joe rogan
Yes.
brendan schaub
I stopped fucking on Periscope, man.
joe rogan
Really?
Yeah.
Yeah, people got super excited about it, but the excitement waned.
brendan schaub
It went away, and I was like, hey, you know what, I don't like it either.
And then Facebook's doing video streaming, you know.
joe rogan
Really?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
Oh, that's right.
They're on video streaming now.
joe rogan
That's right.
brendan schaub
For however long you want.
joe rogan
Dude, we should start streaming on Facebook.
brendan schaub
That's what people are saying.
And cut out the middleman, YouTube.
joe rogan
Well, YouTube's not bad, too.
YouTube, we make money off YouTube.
Make money off ads.
They play ads.
brendan schaub
Oh, for sure.
joe rogan
Yeah.
You can make money off videos.
I make money off my haters' videos.
People make mean videos about me, I put ads on them.
unidentified
Tight move, Joe Rogan.
brendan schaub
Tight move, man.
Shit.
joe rogan
That's fun money.
brendan schaub
Keep on keeping on.
joe rogan
Keep hating.
Ultimately, I mean...
brendan schaub
Do you get that much hate, though?
joe rogan
Sure.
unidentified
Really?
joe rogan
Sure.
brendan schaub
I don't see it.
joe rogan
Oh, you gotta look around.
brendan schaub
I don't see it.
Well, I don't get informed and shit like that.
joe rogan
Well, if people hate every show that is on the air, there's gonna be a certain percentage.
Like, we were talking about...
You have a guy like I was talking about that Milo guy, but even you or even Callan or anyone who I love, there's gonna be a certain percentage of people that fucking hate them, can't stand them.
Everybody's not for everybody.
That dude went down from those fucking leg kicks, man.
brendan schaub
Some big boys.
joe rogan
That dude on the left is throwing some nasty leg kicks.
That white guy's getting ate up.
He's down from those leg kicks.
brendan schaub
Some really big boys.
joe rogan
When you see, like, good high-level kickboxing, it makes you realize, like, a lot of the kickboxing that you see in MMA, especially, like, this level, it just doesn't compare.
brendan schaub
Like, look at what you're watching here.
joe rogan
These guys are going, whoa, that guy's holding himself up.
brendan schaub
Homeboy wants out.
joe rogan
Yeah, he does.
brendan schaub
Kick one more time.
Kick one more time, son.
joe rogan
That left leg kick.
brendan schaub
Yeah, for sure don't bend over like that.
joe rogan
Yeah, when he kicked that left leg, you could see that thunderbolt of pain go up into his dome.
Yeah, people hate everything, man.
There's somebody out there that hates fucking Led Zeppelin.
Somebody out there that hates Bob Seger.
There's somebody out there that wants Billy Joel to jump into the river and drown his own feces.
brendan schaub
As long as it's 60-40, you're good.
But if everyone hates you, you might just be fucked.
joe rogan
I don't even think 60-40 is...
40, 60?
I think what's probably good is like 80, 20, or 70, 30. Yeah, it should be on the higher end, for sure.
brendan schaub
Otherwise, you're just a dick.
joe rogan
60, 40 is like, hmm, maybe you need to tighten up your fucking game a little bit.
brendan schaub
Tighten it up.
You suck.
joe rogan
And it's also like, there's like a problem with doing things like a podcast, because you're talking, and you might have an opinion that is not the same as the person who's listening to, and they can't talk back, and it's fucking frustrating.
unidentified
Right.
joe rogan
Like, you're talking some shit about, like, maybe some music that they love, or some food that they love, or whatever the fuck it is, and they're listening, and they get mad.
Like, I'm fucking tired of listening to this bullshit.
You know, you fucking idiot, you don't know shit, and it's because it's an intimate relationship, but it's very one-way.
brendan schaub
True, but, however, if you listen to a hundred Joe Rogan podcasts, the Joe Rogan Experience, you listen to a hundred, and one of them piss you off, and then you become a hater off that one...
Lose my fucking number.
joe rogan
You know what I'm saying?
That doesn't necessarily have to be the case.
They could be a hater from the jump, you know?
brendan schaub
Oh, well, then they're just a hater.
Then they're looking for any reason.
joe rogan
There's just always bunch of...
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, man.
The smartest thing I ever did was that podcast.
Before that, I got so much hate.
So much fucking...
joe rogan
Well, people got to understand you.
unidentified
People got to understand you.
brendan schaub
And I get it.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I mean, I dress like Jay Leno and I get a fucking part in my head.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I get it.
joe rogan
The part looks good.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it depends who you ask.
unidentified
I like it.
brendan schaub
Looks like a giant Tobey Maguire.
Who doesn't like it?
It just depends.
People hate, you know?
joe rogan
They don't matter.
brendan schaub
No, I agree.
They don't matter.
I'm just saying the best thing I ever did was the podcast.
Because people are like, oh, he's not that big of a dick.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Well, they didn't understand a lot of, like, when you would say things.
Like, this is just your personality, your sense of humor.
Like, they think, this guy, like, really thinks he's the shit.
Well, yes and no.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Like, in a way, yeah.
But in another way, no.
Like, he's having fun.
Like, this is fun.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
What is this Kevin Hart and this soccer player thing?
brendan schaub
David Beckham.
This soccer player.
joe rogan
This soccer player that they always try to sneak in on us.
Not buying it.
I get it.
I get it.
He's cute.
Whatever.
brendan schaub
Get out of here.
He's retired, too.
joe rogan
Well, whatever he is, get out of here.
It's not working.
brendan schaub
Oh, man.
joe rogan
Hello, I live in America.
Land of the free, home of the brave.
We don't give a fuck who the world ping pong champion is, okay?
brendan schaub
What's soccer, bro?
joe rogan
Same thing.
brendan schaub
He's the captain of England for a long time.
joe rogan
Soccer, ping pong, darts.
Who gives a fuck?
Darts.
His fate was sealed when he came over to L.A. to play with the Mexicans.
His fate was sealed.
They didn't even give a fuck about him.
brendan schaub
We got him late, bro.
joe rogan
A few really horny girls in their 30s came down because they were super attracted to him, but it didn't work.
brendan schaub
David Beckham does work, son.
joe rogan
No, I'm saying it didn't work as far as getting us to buy into soccer.
brendan schaub
No.
joe rogan
It did not work.
brendan schaub
Did not work.
unidentified
It did not work.
brendan schaub
We paid him like one gigillion dollars.
joe rogan
Yeah, it didn't work.
brendan schaub
And like seven people showed up.
unidentified
Nobody gave a fuck.
brendan schaub
No one gave a fuck.
joe rogan
They're like, this is still soccer.
David Beckham is our ticket.
What we need is a recognizable face.
brendan schaub
We got him too late.
We got him too late.
joe rogan
It didn't matter if he's fucking Diego Maradona in his prime.
And he's got a dick that's made out of gold.
It doesn't matter.
brendan schaub
It's still soccer.
Soccer's tough.
joe rogan
Yeah.
If that guy was playing baseball, holy shit.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
He would make A-Rod, you know, I mean, the damage that guys like A-Rod do, I mean, he would make that look silly.
brendan schaub
I agree.
He looks way better.
joe rogan
He's a beautiful man.
He's all tattooed up, too.
But he doesn't have the build.
He doesn't have the build.
Because in soccer, it's not important to have muscles.
brendan schaub
Bitches get that skinny look I feel like.
joe rogan
Some bitches.
The ones you don't want to fuck.
brendan schaub
You're probably right.
joe rogan
Oh, 100%.
Yeah.
What do you want those?
brendan schaub
Nah.
joe rogan
Those girls who want a guy that's tight, he's tired all the time?
A guy with a weak frame?
A guy who gets neck pains?
That's not what they want.
brendan schaub
No, that's not what they want.
unidentified
They want a big brown on top of him.
They want that super athlete dick.
joe rogan
There's the stoppage of that fight.
Well, some girls like real skinny dudes, in all seriousness.
unidentified
Some girls like dudes that look like they're like, don't eat.
brendan schaub
I saw a study where the most appealing for women was kind of that dad bod.
Not a real ripped dude, but not a fat dude.
joe rogan
You know who wrote that study?
Some fat dude was trying to get some pussy.
It's bullshit.
Are you hating on whoever wrote that?
What they're doing is they're trying to get into the heads of all the women out there and hypnotize them.
unidentified
That's true.
joe rogan
Well, they already did it with the fucking skinny bitches.
The models that look like coat racks.
Girls look at those models and think that's what they need to look like.
brendan schaub
For other girls, not for guys.
joe rogan
Right, but they think that's what they're supposed to look like.
If they just wanted to look good for guys, they would listen to us.
brendan schaub
It's called honeydew.
joe rogan
And they would just be doing squats and they would be eating pasta all day.
brendan schaub
Rice, every night.
Rice, squats.
unidentified
Potatoes.
joe rogan
Rice, squats.
Sour cream.
brendan schaub
Boom.
Sour cream.
joe rogan
Pork chops.
Don't be scared of pork chops.
brendan schaub
Don't be a basic bitch.
Carve up.
joe rogan
Carve up and run stairs.
brendan schaub
Run stairs.
joe rogan
You gotta work those glutamous maximuses.
But to, like, women who, like, look at those, like, really tall, thin women, they think that that's what they have to achieve.
brendan schaub
Who the fuck?
Who the fuck?
joe rogan
It's from television, man.
It's from movies.
It's from books.
It's from magazines, rather.
brendan schaub
So what do the guys get?
The guys get...
We look towards what?
The rock and shit?
Muscle fitness?
joe rogan
Yeah, there's that.
And then there's like a ridiculously...
Like ripped people.
Like guys who are just like super shredded six pack guys are sitting around like almost like you know that guy when he took that photo shoot didn't eat for at least a day dehydrated himself to show his abs.
brendan schaub
Oh he was on an eight week fucking cut to get there.
joe rogan
When you see ads and guys look insanely ripped and they have like chiseled six packs either they're a freak of nature Which is, occasionally you have those, a guy who just looks insane no matter what he does, like the Kevin Randleman look.
True.
brendan schaub
Oh, you mean black people.
joe rogan
That's what I was going to get to.
brendan schaub
Sorry, bro.
joe rogan
Or, you got a guy who is preparing for a photo shoot who's in a very unhealthy and dehydrated state.
When you see those guys, for people that don't know if you watch bodybuilding, and you see those guys and they're on that Podium that stage and they're flexing and you see the striations.
They will black out.
If you made those guys run up a hill, they would literally black out and fall down.
They have zero endurance.
brendan schaub
They would die if that competition lasted four days.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
They'd be dead.
If it was like an endurance thing where you had to keep the competition going over days and days, they would be gone.
unidentified
Dead.
joe rogan
They would be gone.
brendan schaub
Yeah, they don't look like that.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's not healthy.
You can't do that.
So, if men had a body dysmorphia thing, it would be about being ripped.
Like, that's why when that girl was fucking with you and saying you were soft, you're like...
She's saying, you don't look like this unrealistic person from these magazines that I finger myself to.
brendan schaub
And I said, bitch, you don't look like Nicki Minaj.
What are we going to do?
What are we going to do?
joe rogan
But Nicki Minaj, she wasn't even popular.
brendan schaub
Back then, she wasn't popular.
unidentified
Didn't really work.
brendan schaub
I probably said...
joe rogan
Did you guys have an argument over it?
brendan schaub
No, I was just like...
You were hurt?
Yeah, and I was like, sad, sad.
joe rogan
I used to date this girl who used to tell me about her ex-boyfriend.
She dated this big giant bodybuilder dude that he used to pick her up and fuck her up against the wall.
And I'm like, do you really think I want to hear that?
brendan schaub
I don't want to know that stuff.
joe rogan
Why do you want to tell me about some big guy who used to pick you up and fuck you against the wall?
Because I can pick you up and fuck you against the wall.
You're not that big.
Yeah, no.
It's not special.
Yeah, I'm strong enough to do that.
But I don't need to know about other dudes fucking you.
unidentified
I don't want to know any of them.
brendan schaub
I like to pretend.
Dude, I like to pretend my girl, I'm the first one.
I don't fucking picture any of that, man.
joe rogan
I used to do a bit about that, that every girl should say, is that what a dick looks like?
I'm so glad I waited.
brendan schaub
That would be great.
That's fucking brilliant.
joe rogan
This is how I've always thought it would be the best way to suck it, and then just do an ace, five-star.
brendan schaub
Porno style.
Just like, damn, girl.
joe rogan
Shit.
brendan schaub
Wifey.
joe rogan
And you're like, wait a minute.
How'd you learn?
unidentified
Hold on.
joe rogan
I don't want to know.
brendan schaub
I don't want to know.
unidentified
I'll just pretend you fucking learned it off videos.
brendan schaub
Speaking of dicks, did you see...
Speaking of dicks.
joe rogan
Justin Bieber's dick?
Is that what you're going to bring up?
I knew it.
I knew you were going to bring up his dick.
unidentified
Dude.
He's got a good dick.
brendan schaub
Good sized hoggy on him.
joe rogan
Kid's happy.
brendan schaub
Kid's killing the game, bro.
joe rogan
Do you think that maybe he pulled it out a little, fluffed it up?
brendan schaub
Got a little blood flow?
joe rogan
Knew everybody was going to see it.
brendan schaub
He had that dime piece of a girl waiting on the couch, so I'm sure he boned her.
He's Justin Bieber.
And I was like, you know what?
I'm going to get butt naked, play some guitar on the balcony, and someone caught him.
I don't think he's walking around with that big old hog like that.
joe rogan
That's true.
brendan schaub
He's gifted, though.
joe rogan
Maybe he doesn't give a fuck.
Maybe when you have $300 million and you're 19, you're like, maybe I'll just go show my hog to everybody.
brendan schaub
For real.
joe rogan
Take my hog out for a walk.
unidentified
Especially...
joe rogan
Take that hog out on the balcony.
brendan schaub
Take this hog out for a little stroll.
joe rogan
And he's got to think, like, as famous as he is, that everything he does, he's constantly got people trying to take pictures of him.
brendan schaub
You know what?
If you have that hoggy, though, it's like, fuck it.
Why not?
Let it breathe, bro.
Let it shine.
Quit hating on the dick.
joe rogan
That's a good point.
brendan schaub
Yeah, right?
unidentified
It's a very good point.
brendan schaub
You know, a legit point.
Good for him.
joe rogan
See, that's something.
Forget about squats.
Forget about tit implants.
unidentified
Oof.
joe rogan
Lips.
They're not a goddamn thing you can do.
unidentified
Nothing.
joe rogan
Isn't that incredible?
That if you look at the game, the genetic game, all right, that one of the number one things is dick size.
Number one things.
brendan schaub
Number one.
joe rogan
One of the number one things.
And that is the one fucking nut that science can't crack.
We could put a man on the moon.
We can send video from your fucking cell phone to a dude in Australia instantaneously.
You could download Netflix on the ride to the airport.
I mean, you're pulling movies out of the sky.
brendan schaub
You can do some shit.
joe rogan
God damn, you can do some shit.
You could Skype with people that are on the other side of the planet.
Talk to them in real time.
Look at them like I'm looking at you.
That's all possible.
Can't fix that dick.
brendan schaub
Can't fix that dick, bro.
joe rogan
Sorry.
How close are you getting?
unidentified
Not close at all.
Not close, man.
brendan schaub
We can't figure shit out.
joe rogan
Nothing.
We could cut the tendon in the bottom and stretch it out, but I mean, whatever.
brendan schaub
Good luck with that, though.
It gives you me half an inch.
My buddy, I won't say his name, obviously, has a small dick.
I was at his house a while ago, found a dick extender for his girl.
unidentified
Oh.
brendan schaub
He saw me see this fucking adapter, and I just looked at him and said, I get it, bro.
I get it.
I could have roasted him hard, hard for having a tiny dick and having a dick extender.
joe rogan
Now, when you say dick extender, like a rubber dick that you put on top of your actual dick?
brendan schaub
Yeah, to help your girl out.
Because he has a tater tot dick, so he put this thing on top of it.
It's a bummer, bro.
Me being the nice guy, I just looked at him and said, I get it.
joe rogan
It's just, it is what it is.
brendan schaub
Carry on with your night.
joe rogan
It is what it is, man.
brendan schaub
It's a bummer, man.
You can't do shit.
Like, if you're real skinny, alright.
Whatever.
You can lift weights, eat right.
Maybe even buy some steroids.
You can figure some shit out.
Like you said, you're dick.
We got 3D printing where we're making all sorts of fucking new organs, whatever the fuck you want.
We can't do dicks.
joe rogan
I got a question.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
When you see, like, women that are bodybuilders, and they take steroids, their clit grows, and their clit becomes like a dick.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Do you think if a dude got on some crazy-ass fucking steroids, would it make his dick grow?
Like, if you got on some wild, silverback, Mark Coleman, 1996-type steroids.
unidentified
Oop, dog.
joe rogan
You have to ask Mark Goldman.
Some top-of-the-fucking-food-chain-Alexander Corellin-type shit.
brendan schaub
Some Pujanowski.
joe rogan
Wouldn't your dick grow?
brendan schaub
I feel like it would.
joe rogan
I think it would grow.
brendan schaub
Your balls are gonna shrivel up like raisins, but your dick is gonna be fat.
joe rogan
Your balls are gonna have to step away from the game.
They're not doing the job.
You know, it's like, what if you have a four-cylinder engine in your race car?
And someone comes along and say, listen, we got one or two choices.
We can either take out this bitch-ass four-cylinder and put in this LS7 six-point-whatever-liter motherfucking fire-breathing dragon engine, or you can keep up with your bullshit fuel economy and that shitty putt-putt.
What are we gonna do?
Are we here to win races?
Well, you take that crazy...
You know, Mark Kerr, Circa, 2001. You know, Mark Kerr, the smashing machine at its peak.
Take some of that stuff.
brendan schaub
Bro, I think, you know what?
I don't know if your dick grows longer.
I think it might get fatter.
joe rogan
It might get bigger, too.
I mean, if the girl's clit gets bigger.
Is this Dustin Jacoby next?
Is that next?
Oh, that's a good fight.
brendan schaub
That's the co-main event.
joe rogan
Beautiful.
brendan schaub
Denver product.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's a tough kid, man.
brendan schaub
Fun UFC, too, right?
joe rogan
Yes, he did.
Tough kid.
I wonder.
I think genetic engineering is going to be where it's all at.
unidentified
That's what's going to fix.
brendan schaub
Yeah, we'll get there.
Pretty soon everyone's going to be walking around with fat asses, big dicks, big noses.
joe rogan
Yeah, I used to have this bit about big dick pills.
That if big dick pills really worked, it would take about 30 minutes for the first guy to die of an overdose.
I go, because no one's going to take one.
If big dick pills work, one makes my dick grow?
What if I take all of them?
How much do I take before I die?
And I'll take one less than that.
We'll get this fucking party rolling.
And I was like, there's Jacoby fighting that guy that we just saw that won earlier right there.
Jacoby's one of the guys who beat him.
The guy that we saw earlier that knocked out Bang Bang.
brendan schaub
These last two fights are going to be dope.
joe rogan
Yeah.
And Wayne Barrett's a bad motherfucker.
He's very good.
Super athletic.
Real quick.
Real sneaky man.
Really, really good athlete.
Good boxer, too.
He's a good boxer before he got into kickboxing.
He's a real good athlete, too.
There's a lot of real good guys at the high level in this.
brendan schaub
I mean, you know Schilling.
I wonder how it works with Glory.
Like, are they contracted to Glory where they can't fight anywhere else?
joe rogan
He fights for Bellator, too.
brendan schaub
But, you know, Bellator and Glory are friendly, but can he fight elsewhere?
Can he fight over in Japan or in Thailand?
joe rogan
I don't know how his contracts set up.
brendan schaub
I wonder how those contracts are.
joe rogan
I don't know.
Because it has to be tough for a lot of guys.
They have Paul Daly.
He's in both.
Bellator and...
brendan schaub
Like I said, that makes sense for those guys.
joe rogan
Whatever it is, for whatever reason.
Bellator has been around for a long time now.
It's been around for several years.
And for whatever fucking reason, it just has not caught on the way the UFC caught on in the early 2000s.
brendan schaub
Oh, never well.
joe rogan
That doesn't make sense to me.
brendan schaub
They don't have the stars, they don't have the depth, they don't have the production crew, they don't have the money, right?
joe rogan
They have Viacom money.
brendan schaub
And that's crazy money.
joe rogan
Well, why doesn't Viacom say, look, we could either have this middling product where we're always going to have good guys like Phil Davis and Tito Ortiz and Schlamenko and good fighters, or we can go balls out and we can get the really good guys.
brendan schaub
Like who?
joe rogan
Anybody that's in contract negotiations.
Chad Mendes was talking to them.
When Chad Mendes had, you know, his contract is about to come up.
You don't think that he got offers?
I don't know what his deal was, and I don't think he was even thinking about going, but you don't think that Rampage went over there?
You know, Rampage is in a lawsuit right now where he's got to figure out where he's going to fight again.
brendan schaub
If he is ever going to fight again.
joe rogan
The UFC said they would let him go.
brendan schaub
Oh, really?
joe rogan
Yeah, they said, look, we understand that you're in this big lawsuit with Viacom, and Viacom's threatening to sue.
The UFC said, we'll let you go.
You could go and fight for them.
brendan schaub
That's dope, man.
That's cool for them to do that.
joe rogan
I think they're offering to settle.
I think Viacom's offering to settle.
Because they did violate his contract.
They did, 100%.
And he did fight Fabio Maldonado afterwards.
The judge cleared him to fight.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
So I don't know what the specifics of the case was, but the last that I read was that year.
brendan schaub
You're looking at a 10-year investment where we're going to have to get these young guys from the UFC, and then we're going to have to recruit the younger guys who come up.
Because guys come up through the ranks, right?
Like Phil Davis or the Ultimate Fighter came up through the Ultimate Fighter, a bunch of guys did.
They have to figure out kind of their feeder systems.
Because right now all they're doing is biting off the UFC. Really?
Let's be honest.
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
They're putting on B-level, C-level shows that the UFC put on five, six years ago.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Phil Davis kind of the first guy who's in his prime who went there.
joe rogan
Mm-hmm.
brendan schaub
You know, but Phil Davis isn't a knockout artist.
I love Phil.
joe rogan
Well, Phil Davis just knocked out, uh, what's his face?
unidentified
Um, um, uh, Hold, hold.
brendan schaub
He's from Montreal.
Francis Carmon.
joe rogan
Carmon.
Carmon's a very good fighter, and Davis beat the shit out of him, man.
brendan schaub
I knocked him out.
joe rogan
He looked nasty.
brendan schaub
No, Davis fucked those dudes up.
joe rogan
It's like he turned a corner.
Did he turn a corner?
brendan schaub
Is he fighting lesser competition?
joe rogan
Both.
I think both.
brendan schaub
I agree.
I think Davis is getting better, and I think Davis is in his prime, and he's going to run that show for a very, very long time.
joe rogan
I was super impressed when he beat Glover.
I was like, wow, that is a big victory.
But I think Glover had a shit camp.
I really do.
brendan schaub
Still a big victory, though.
unidentified
Whatever excuse Glover makes, that's a huge victory.
joe rogan
100%.
But I was disappointed when he lost to Bader.
But then when you see the way Bader beat Rashad, you're like, look, you need to consider Bader the way he is right now.
Don't consider how Bader got knocked out by Glover or Bader that got knocked out by Machida.
brendan schaub
Bader just won, what, five in a row?
joe rogan
He's won five in a row and look fucking real good.
brendan schaub
Guess what's next for him though?
You're a motherfucker.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Anthony Johnson.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Couldn't be a worse matchup for me.
joe rogan
Is that happening?
Because Rumble asked for it.
brendan schaub
Well, I think that's what's next for him.
Because what are you going to do?
You're going to sit out and wait for John and DC to fight?
Who knows how long that's going to be.
They're going to make you fight.
joe rogan
Rumble's terrifying.
brendan schaub
Rumble's terrifying, and I can't think of a worse matchup for Bader, and I love Bader.
But if I'm Bader, I'd rather fight Jon Jones than Rumble.
I can't think of a worse matchup for him.
joe rogan
There's some interesting fights at 205. Real interesting.
Real interesting.
I was really surprised how well he shut Rashad down.
I was really surprised.
I was like, wow, Bader has really turned a corner.
brendan schaub
He's really turned a corner.
I think that's a tough fight to say that.
joe rogan
Well, it is because Rashad had two years layoff, but Bader looked real good.
I'm only basing it on how good Bader looked.
He looked real good.
He looked real smooth with his stand-up.
brendan schaub
He's getting way better.
joe rogan
His jab is nasty, man.
The jab is opening up a lot of the other aspects of his striking because he's developed a rhythm with his jab where his jab has become so fluid and efficient that he can, like, kind of half out there.
He can half it and then pop you with it.
He's landing it in, like, a more diverse way than he ever did before.
He has more proficiency.
I agree.
brendan schaub
He looks great.
joe rogan
Co-main event, Wayne Barrett versus Dustin Jacoby.
brendan schaub
Bader does look great.
I think it's tough to base it off the Rashad fight.
joe rogan
I agree with you.
I agree with you.
That was a real tough fight for Rashad.
I think Rashad would have done better to have a fight with someone who wasn't in a...
A warm-up or something.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
brendan schaub
But think about Bader, man.
Think what Bader's come from.
Remember when he lost to fucking Tito Ortiz and it was two in a row?
Remember when he lost to Tito Ortiz?
joe rogan
Mm-hmm.
brendan schaub
Remember Tito Ortiz was like, I can hit him.
He like fell down.
joe rogan
Well, he hit him and then he choked him.
brendan schaub
Submitted him, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
But that, you know what, man?
brendan schaub
That was a motherfucker, man.
joe rogan
Tito Ortiz, if he's on and he catches you, he's still Tito Ortiz.
brendan schaub
Oh, he's Tito Ortiz.
One of the best of all time.
joe rogan
Gotta remember, he was at one point in time the motherfucker.
brendan schaub
Baddest guy on Earth for a while.
joe rogan
I mean, not really, because Chuck was always out there.
We always knew that Chuck was out there.
But before he fought Chuck, when you think of what he did to Evan Tanner, you think of the beatdowns he put on Ken Shamrock.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
Tito Ortiz is still the way...
He's like one of the first guys to ever use a one-arm guillotine.
He choked out Yuki Kondo in Japan.
Remember that?
brendan schaub
Well, think about...
joe rogan
Was that Japan?
I think it was.
brendan schaub
Well, think about Bader, though.
He was two loss in a row and just lost to Tito Ortiz.
He was like on the chopping block, man.
I remember just being like, damn, really, Bader?
joe rogan
Well, that dude just kept working.
Dustin Jacoby is going after Wayne Barrett.
This is a dangerous fight for Jacoby because Barrett has fought more elite competition.
He's fought Joe Schilling, beat Joe Schilling once, lost to Joe Schilling in the last fight, knocked Joe Schilling down.
He's dangerous.
And Jacoby...
I forget the Brazilian cat that he got knocked out by.
brendan schaub
Did I say McNichols Arena?
That arena's been shut down for literally 15 years.
That's Magnus Arena.
Magnus.
McNichols is old school where UFC 2 and 3 happen.
joe rogan
Dude, this is a good fight.
Wayne Barrett.
He's slick, man.
brendan schaub
Look at that.
joe rogan
Whoops.
Not here.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Jacoby's, like, super aggressive, too.
I forget the dude that he fought, this badass Brazilian cat.
What's Dustin Jacoby's record?
A badass dude who caught him with a left hook.
brendan schaub
Dude, it's tough because Jacoby came to the UFC and just struggled, right?
Because you can't fight like this.
It's tough to get off like this.
joe rogan
It's a different style, fighting with the small gloves.
That's for sure.
Who did he lose to?
That's MMA. Yeah, that's his MMA. That's all MMA. See if you find Dustin Jacoby's kickboxing career.
Good duck under.
Slicky duck under, that looping right hand.
It's just the big gloves thing, the defense is so much different.
brendan schaub
Oh, 100%.
joe rogan
And that's what happened with Schilling.
In Schilling's last fight, he got caught with that Superman punch by that dude.
brendan schaub
That was bad.
joe rogan
It was ruthless.
brendan schaub
Shit happens.
joe rogan
But those punches, they come down on angles.
brendan schaub
There he is.
Damn, that stretch from 13 to 15 was tough.
joe rogan
Why can't I read that?
brendan schaub
Casey Green, Ariel...
joe rogan
No, Pereira?
Alex Pereira?
Yeah, it was a Pereira fight.
brendan schaub
He lost to Pereira, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's who it was.
It was Pereira.
brendan schaub
Damn, he's fought all over.
joe rogan
Yeah.
It's a totally different style of defense when you're using the small gloves.
The big gloves give you so much more leeway to catching punches, and the punches themselves are bigger, the gloves are bigger.
So the punches are coming at you, it's a larger object coming at you, and you have a larger object to catch that larger object.
And all that shit is shrunken considerably when you put those MMA gloves into the mask.
brendan schaub
Oh, dude, night and day.
It'd be like these guys fighting with their hand wraps on.
It's a completely different game.
joe rogan
What do you think about the idea of no gloves?
brendan schaub
It won't work.
joe rogan
No?
brendan schaub
Well, if you hate money and ratings, it'll work.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, it's rough enough now being mainstream.
I don't think we're still mainstream.
I think we're still working on that with the top sports.
You take gloves off and these dudes are bare knuckle fucking dudes up?
Yeah, it makes sense to us, right?
It makes sense to the educated people, but, I mean, mid-America sees that shit, general people, they're like, what the hell?
This is so barbaric.
joe rogan
Right.
Maybe.
brendan schaub
That's the only thing.
joe rogan
Yeah, maybe.
I don't know, man.
I mean, why is it barbaric to punch in the face and not barbaric to knee in the face?
brendan schaub
Joe, I'm with you 100%.
Take the gloves off.
It's safer.
joe rogan
It is.
brendan schaub
It is.
I'm with you.
However, marketing-wise, good luck selling that.
They're like, hold up.
We're going back to the Kimbo Slice backyard brawl days?
I thought we were moving forward.
joe rogan
Well, you would have a lot of dudes breaking their hands too.
That would be a real problem.
It would be a real problem for, like, longevity of your career.
And people think I'm exaggerating.
Listen, take away the hand wraps.
Take away the wrist wraps.
No wrist wraps.
Because I think one of the flaws of the human hand For punching is the wrist.
It's hard.
Like you have to have real discipline to punch hard and you have to practice hitting things bare knuckle to really develop that rigidity in your wrist when you deliver the impact of a punch.
Because most people when they hit things, their wrist bends back and twists sideways.
Most people don't know.
They wind up breaking their hands.
They hit with the knuckles, the outside.
brendan schaub
That's why boss would open hand slap pitches.
joe rogan
Well, he had to.
brendan schaub
That's why he started doing that.
joe rogan
No, he was fighting in pancreas.
That's the only way he could fight.
He figured that was the rules of pancreas.
brendan schaub
He also did it, though, when they had gloves.
He used open-hand shit.
Really?
Yeah.
joe rogan
When they had gloves, he did that?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
He would throw his hooks with an open hand, he said.
joe rogan
Interesting.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Huh.
Well, that's one of the reasons why he probably transferred so easily to pancreas.
Damn, this is a good fight.
You know, one of the things that Boss figured out how to do in some weird way, he figured out how to pull his hand back way far.
So when he was hitting guys, he was hitting them like a punch with the palm, with the base of the palm, like right where it reaches, like where the palm meets the wrist joint.
He would pull his hand so far back, like unnaturally far.
If you watch his fights, it's kind of weird how far his hands go back.
brendan schaub
He was like the first freak athlete to get the...
I mean, he was a freak athlete, man.
joe rogan
He was the first elite striker in MMA, in my opinion.
Him and Moe Smith.
But he was probably the first, because with Moe, he really didn't know any grappling to speak of.
When he first started fighting in Pancrase, he really had to learn more grappling before we could see...
Like, in extreme fighting, you got to see what his kickboxing was really like.
When he knocked out Conan Silviera...
That's when everybody was like, oh shit, this is some next level shit.
And then when he came over to the UFC and beat Mark Coleman and won the title, people were like, okay, this is what a kickboxer really looks like, a world-class kickboxer.
brendan schaub
Boss said he taught himself jiu-jitsu.
joe rogan
That's madness.
brendan schaub
Crazy, right?
He'd watch videos and teach himself.
Had a training partner.
Him and his training partner would learn on each other.
joe rogan
Come here.
I tried this on you.
brendan schaub
How crazy is that?
joe rogan
I believe it.
brendan schaub
Boss is crazy.
joe rogan
He has some crazy ideas about conditioning, too.
He goes, when I would kick the bag, I would go 100%.
And how long can I do?
30 seconds?
100%.
Well, tomorrow I'll do 40 seconds.
And then I'd do two minutes.
He's a crazy dude.
He would build it up so that he could get to whatever the round was.
He would just sprint.
God.
brendan schaub
That's a different time back then.
joe rogan
Well, they didn't, you know, now people do Tabata when you do...
brendan schaub
They do an elliptical and shit.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
You do, like, intervals, like Tabata intervals.
What is Tabata?
It's like 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off.
brendan schaub
That's the typical Tabata.
joe rogan
What I do when I do a sprint, like if I'm in a hotel and I have nothing but an elliptical machine in the gym, I'll do sprints on the elliptical machine where I'll crank it up to a really high level.
And I'll do 30 minutes of thunder, I call it.
Or 30 seconds of thunder.
brendan schaub
I was like, 30 minutes?
joe rogan
Goddamn.
Well, 30 minutes for the whole workout.
But for the thunder, it's 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off.
It gives me something to do.
And those 30 seconds off, I know it's coming.
I know it's coming.
Here comes that fucking 29. It makes it go by faster, though.
brendan schaub
I think it's a better way to do it.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Because you're not so focused on the overall time.
You're more focused on 30, 30, 30, 30, 30. Yeah.
joe rogan
It also gets you used to being just completely...
Completely exerted.
It's a great way to get a cardio workout in on a piece of...
When people think of hardcore workouts, you think of an Airdyne or maybe a VersaClimber.
Those you think of as hardcore.
A VersaClimber, you can get the same kind of insane workout on an elliptical machine.
brendan schaub
100%.
joe rogan
But people associate elliptical with like, you're watching the news, going slow.
When I use the elliptical machine, people look at me like something fucking wrong with me.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I go hard in the paint on an elliptical.
I go fucking hard on the elliptical now.
joe rogan
Hard in the paint?
brendan schaub
Hard in the paint.
joe rogan
What does that mean?
brendan schaub
Just like, it's basketball terms, right?
Like hard in the paint.
joe rogan
Oh, the paint.
brendan schaub
I go hard in the motherfucking paint.
joe rogan
Is this round two or three?
Round three.
Damn, Dustin Jacoby.
brendan schaub
You know how guys, we're starting to see a trend where guys are sparring less and less because they realize the abuse in the gym?
That Rodriguez was saying how he only sparred three times, I think, in camp?
joe rogan
Yeah, Yair.
I think Brian Stan was saying that.
brendan schaub
Yeah, three times.
joe rogan
Dustin Jacoby really taking it to him, man.
brendan schaub
He looks great.
joe rogan
He looks really improved, too, from the Pereira fight.
I think that knockout really taught him a lot about defense.
He's looking great in this fight, man.
Good leg kick right there.
Barrett's throwing with the frickin' 130. But look how easy it is to block punches with these goddamn big gloves.
It's such a different game.
It's so different.
Look at this.
John Wayne Parr, when he does that cage Muay Thai, do they wear MMA gloves?
brendan schaub
MMA gloves.
joe rogan
Yeah?
brendan schaub
He has a fight coming up, right?
He's coming out here soon.
joe rogan
He's fighting Black Dynamite in cage Muay Thai, and he's out here fighting for the title.
brendan schaub
In San Diego?
joe rogan
Yeah.
In Lion Fight.
He's going to fight for the title.
I like that guy, too.
He's a good dude.
brendan schaub
Yeah, really good dude.
Funny.
joe rogan
Yeah, I got to work out with him, man.
He showed me some really interesting way of throwing punches.
Like, he throws everything hard.
Like, even his jab is hard.
brendan schaub
He makes it count.
joe rogan
His jab, he pulls back with his right hand.
Oh, shit.
Wayne Barrett went down.
What happened?
Oh, my God.
He was touching the back of his head like it was a bad strike.
brendan schaub
Damn, he's out of it.
Oh, he's super out of it.
joe rogan
That's it.
Whoa.
Dustin Jacoby knocked out Wayne Barrett.
And Wayne Barrett, he was pointing to the back of his head.
He pointed to the back of his head earlier in the fight, too.
Damn, Dustin Jacoby.
Congratulations.
Good for you.
What was I just saying?
brendan schaub
Fucking...
John Wayne Parr.
joe rogan
John Wayne Parr.
He throws punches like this.
He pulls back on his right hand.
This is how he throws a jab.
He goes like that.
Jesus Christ.
I worked out with him for like an hour and a half.
brendan schaub
Was that awesome?
joe rogan
Yeah, it was really fun.
He's a good dude.
He showed me a lot of cool shit, too.
A lot of cool shit.
Like, the way he delivers knees is interesting, too.
Damn, that is legit as fuck.
unidentified
Hell yeah.
joe rogan
What does he point in the back of his head for?
Let's see that again.
He was getting battered before he got dropped there.
I mean, that was not just that one shot, either.
What happened?
Oh, they went to a commercial.
Wanted to see that knockdown again.
brendan schaub
That's the other thing, man.
I don't miss boxing.
Any boxing.
I watch fucking all of it.
joe rogan
We have a thing, right?
Can we rewind that for a second?
I just want to see that knocked out again.
brendan schaub
That'd be nice.
joe rogan
I forgot.
unidentified
We have the DVR up in this bitch.
joe rogan
Yeah, there it is.
No, right before that, Jamie.
Right before that.
unidentified
Oh.
Right before that.
brendan schaub
There we go.
joe rogan
Here we go.
brendan schaub
This is the money maker.
joe rogan
Here we go.
Boom.
brendan schaub
On the temple.
joe rogan
Boom.
That's good.
brendan schaub
Chin.
Back of the head.
joe rogan
Oh, that's 100% good.
That's the side of the head.
That's the temple.
brendan schaub
I'd say that's the back of the head.
joe rogan
Let me see that again.
brendan schaub
Where I come from, that'd be back of the head.
unidentified
Boom.
joe rogan
Left hook.
Bam.
No.
No chance.
brendan schaub
Bro, sis.
That is the back of the head.
joe rogan
Make it slow, Jamie.
Make it go slow.
unidentified
It's legal.
joe rogan
It's legal, though.
Hold on.
But make it go slow.
That's a fucking temple, dude.
Watch this.
brendan schaub
Bro, that would be back of the head.
unidentified
Hold on.
joe rogan
Make it slow.
Isn't there a slow button?
There's a slow-mo thing.
unidentified
I don't know.
joe rogan
You press like pause and then I don't know.
Double pause?
I think pause and then fast forward.
unidentified
Here.
joe rogan
Let me see that thing.
Isn't there like a small way you can do slow-mo?
Pretty sure there is.
What is this?
No network connection.
Cancel.
Hold on.
brendan schaub
Oh, he's saying it's back to the head.
joe rogan
What happened here, Jamie?
Where am I pressing this to?
Where's the receiver?
It's in there?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Well, how does it work?
unidentified
It's RF, radio frequency.
joe rogan
Well, it's not reacting.
brendan schaub
I think you've got to hit cancel on that thing.
There you go.
joe rogan
Okay, now it's working.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that's for sure back in the head.
But it's legal.
You know what I'm saying?
It's in transition.
unidentified
Okay.
brendan schaub
So it's legal.
joe rogan
I'm going to take a look at it better.
brendan schaub
Give me that first view.
joe rogan
Let's get a view of it in real time first.
Here it is right here.
brendan schaub
This is where you can see the back of the head.
Boom.
joe rogan
Bam.
See, to me, it looks like the side of the head.
brendan schaub
Definitely not.
joe rogan
He's grabbing this.
brendan schaub
If this is the side of the head, then I agree.
joe rogan
No, that's not where he's grabbing.
He's grabbing, like, his temple.
How do I make this thing go slow?
Let me see if I can do this.
I think there's a way.
Yeah, here it is.
brendan schaub
Oh, here we go.
joe rogan
Okay.
brendan schaub
Guy gets the old crazy eyes on him.
joe rogan
Okay, ready?
Here we go.
There's Dustin Jacoby moving in.
Check it.
Mad pressure by Jacoby, too.
Good defense.
Look at that.
Good defense there.
Barrett tried to swing that right hook around.
unidentified
His left hook.
joe rogan
And Jacoby, bang, catches him here.
100% clean there.
brendan schaub
That side of the head.
joe rogan
Side of the head, which is legit, right?
brendan schaub
Correct.
joe rogan
Okay, let's see.
We get a good view of it here.
And Barrett really relying on that right hand.
Boom.
brendan schaub
Kind of catches him.
Grazes that nose.
joe rogan
But that one gets blocked.
That one gets blocked.
So now he's coming over again.
Barrett is, or Jacoby, misses that left.
And now here we go.
brendan schaub
Here goes the back of the head.
joe rogan
Look at that.
Come on, son.
Bro, that's his neck!
Look where he's standing.
brendan schaub
That's basically the back of his neck.
joe rogan
Look where he's standing.
They're standing staring at each other.
brendan schaub
Homeboy moves, though.
joe rogan
Wayne Barrett turns his head sideways and he hits him right in the temple.
brendan schaub
Bro, that's not on the temple.
joe rogan
It's right here.
The side of the head.
Look at him.
It's not the back of his head.
brendan schaub
He's not touching right there.
unidentified
He's not touching there.
joe rogan
Unless he has a hook for an arm, there's no fucking way that's hitting the back.
Bro, look at where it makes impact.
brendan schaub
Look at that right there.
joe rogan
No, look at it right there.
It's bouncing off the side of his head, and you see the fist appear behind his head.
brendan schaub
Bro, that's here.
joe rogan
One more time.
One more time.
Let's watch it again.
Watch this again.
Boom, that's one.
And there's the right hook.
unidentified
Misses.
joe rogan
And there's the left hook over the top.
unidentified
Misses.
brendan schaub
Misses.
joe rogan
And here it comes.
Here it comes.
Look, they're standing right at each other.
And the punch comes.
Watch where the punch comes.
Back of the neck.
Look at that punch.
brendan schaub
Back of the neck.
That's not touching him right now.
joe rogan
Incorrect.
Incorrect.
This is a straight punch, right?
It lands on the side of his head, and then it glances off the side of his head, and you see the fist behind the head.
brendan schaub
You don't think that's the impicked out there?
joe rogan
No fucking chance.
Oh, I disagree.
That is not hitting the back of his head.
That is hitting the side of his head, and you're seeing the punch.
brendan schaub
I think with the glove, it's like, here, Joe, look.
Like, here.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's legal, dude.
brendan schaub
No, it's illegal.
I think that's legal, what he's doing.
joe rogan
What are you saying, back of the head?
That's the side of the head.
brendan schaub
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
joe rogan
That's the side of the head.
brendan schaub
If you go to punch me and I move like this, and you end up hitting side and back of the head, that's legal.
joe rogan
But he's not hitting the back of the head.
brendan schaub
So he didn't touch the back of his head.
joe rogan
He hit the side of his head.
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
He touched side and back.
joe rogan
I don't know, man.
unidentified
Boom!
joe rogan
That, to me, looks more like right behind the ear, which is totally legit.
The back of the head, to me, is a rabbit punch.
That's where the base of the head meets the neck.
So where's this, Joe?
That's the back of the ear.
That's legal.
That's not...
There's no...
brendan schaub
I'm saying that's legal even in MMA. I'm saying it right here.
joe rogan
I think you're changing the game.
unidentified
No, no, no.
brendan schaub
That's back of the head, bro.
joe rogan
He's changing the game.
Yeah, but it's not.
unidentified
Boom.
brendan schaub
It's legal.
That hit is illegal.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's totally legal.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I agree.
joe rogan
It's legal.
Maybe I misunderstood.
Maybe I misunderstood.
I thought you were saying that.
brendan schaub
Oh, we have miscommunication here.
That's all it is.
joe rogan
That's pretty slick, though.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it was.
joe rogan
It's a big win for Jacoby, man.
Real big win.
Oh, shit.
Artem Levin, top of the heap.
brendan schaub
He's out, though, huh?
joe rogan
Well, he's out for this fight.
You know, you look at that guy, you look at his body, and you're like, it looks a lot like Ari Shafir's body.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
Like, how is that guy such a badass, you know?
brendan schaub
Man of number four, huh?
joe rogan
Well, he's been fucked up by Joe Schilling.
unidentified
Super fucked up.
joe rogan
That doesn't make any sense.
How is he so highly ranked?
brendan schaub
Well, Joe's two, though.
joe rogan
Well, Joe Schilling hasn't really lost in glory other than the decision loss to Simon Marcus.
That wasn't in glory.
The decision loss to Artem Levin.
He beat Artem Levin by decision two.
And then the decision loss to Wayne Barrett, those are the fights that he lost in glory.
brendan schaub
Unless Shilling's getting paid bank to compete in MMA, for sure stick with kickboxing.
joe rogan
I agree.
brendan schaub
What the fuck are you doing?
joe rogan
I think he just doesn't want to back off from a challenge, and he wants to be the best at everything he does.
You know, that's how he got to be such a badass kickboxer.
brendan schaub
I agree, but be a badass kickboxer.
Don't be an average MMA fighter.
joe rogan
Well, it's just really hard to do everything, man.
It's really hard.
brendan schaub
It's really fucking hard to do everything.
joe rogan
Oh no, it's not possible.
brendan schaub
It's not possible.
It's really not.
joe rogan
It's a crazy game, man.
The game of...
Trying to be the baddest motherfucker in two disciplines, that is a crazy, crazy game.
brendan schaub
Because the guys he's fighting aren't focusing on their off time grappling and wrestling.
They're getting better at striking.
joe rogan
100%.
brendan schaub
It's tough.
When I see that, I love Joe Schilling.
I see a friend of yours.
He's a friend of mine.
I support him.
But when I see him do MMA, I'm like, what the fuck are you doing?
joe rogan
Well, you know what?
He knocked out Melvin Manhoff in MMA, but he was fighting a guy, Melvin Manhoff, that even though he had a lot of success in MMA, he knocked out Mark Hunt.
He's a guy who's been knocked out a gang of times.
brendan schaub
A ton, man.
joe rogan
Knocked out by Robbie Lawler in one of the most horrific knockouts you've ever seen in your life.
brendan schaub
He was winning that fight, too.
joe rogan
He was.
brendan schaub
If you remember.
joe rogan
Robbie Lawler uncorked a nuke on his face.
From downtown.
Boom!
And his lights went out and he goes flat to his back.
brendan schaub
So bad.
joe rogan
Then Robbie comes down on him when he's out.
brendan schaub
Boom!
Endo, Bisping style.
joe rogan
And just blood all over his mouth.
There's blood coming out of his mouth.
And he busted his fucking lip open.
I think that, you know, Joe's just got that in him.
He just wants to be a bad motherfucker at everything he does, which is why he became so good at kickboxing.
But I think there's wisdom in your words.
He's one of the best kickboxers on the planet Earth, without a doubt.
brendan schaub
Hands down.
Hands down one of the best on planet Earth.
joe rogan
But I think also...
brendan schaub
Average MMA fighter.
joe rogan
But losing the way he lost to that Japanese cat, that half-Japanese dude that he lost to.
Who was that guy's name?
brendan schaub
Where you got Superman punched?
joe rogan
Yeah.
That guy was a beast, man.
That guy's really good.
He's no joke, man.
brendan schaub
He's good.
joe rogan
No, his striking is nasty.
That fucking punch was nasty, no matter how you slice it.
brendan schaub
That punch was super nasty.
I agree.
I'm just saying, it's still Bellator.
joe rogan
It is.
But that guy has only fought Bellator that one time.
I mean, that guy could have easily been in the UFC. And get ate the fuck up.
brendan schaub
Like Kobayashi.
unidentified
No, no, no, no.
joe rogan
You never know.
unidentified
Kato.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
We got about 10 minutes left before we're at 3 hours.
brendan schaub
Yeah, Saiki Kato getting his ass ate up in the UFC.
joe rogan
We got 10 minutes left before we go to 3 hours.
So we're going to take a little break here, folks, and we're going to have a very short part 2.
The part 2 will be so goddamn short.
It's 10. What is it 9 15 now?
Actually, we'll probably go to 10 o'clock.
We'll make part two like 45 minutes.
We'll go to 10 o'clock.
So we're gonna get the fuck out of here now.
The end of this podcast has come.
If you're annoyed by this, listen, this is just how these things go.
Whatever, for sure, don't download part two.
Because for sure, we're just gonna be talking about our friend Joe Schilling.
I love that dude.
So that's why we're here.
That's why.
This is the first Spike TV glory event we've ever done a fight companion for.
100% for Joe Schilling.
This is what this is for.
Mauro Ranallo!
Cageside!
With Skeletor!
We'll be right back.
