Speaker Time Text
unidentified
Yes!
joe rogan
We're live, ladies and gentlemen.
If you tune into this podcast and you're like, this is a regular podcast, right?
This is a UFC recap.
So if you fucking hate the UFC, you're like, oh my god, fucking hate UFC. It might be the podcast for you, though, because we don't know.
We might start talking about the UFC, and it could go anywhere.
It usually does.
eddie bravo
These podcasts are like Fight Companion.
You always tell them that it's different and all that, but all the podcasts are the same.
brendan schaub
It's the same shit.
It's all the same.
joe rogan
The last one, the last fight companion, we only talked about the main event for like 30 seconds.
eddie bravo
Exactly.
joe rogan
The rest of the, we're talking about everything.
Sex and drugs and fucking friendship.
brendan schaub
Then we go to the decision, oh, I got Darius.
unidentified
You didn't even fucking I just started lying.
eddie bravo
Well, I watched that UFC on Fox.
joe rogan
Oh my god, what a fucking card, first of all.
brendan schaub
During the On It podcast.
joe rogan
Oh, you guys did a Fight Companion?
eddie bravo
Yes.
joe rogan
Oh, that's a great idea.
People are doing that other Fight Companions, like other podcasts are doing Fight Companions.
It's awesome.
Why not?
eddie bravo
It was Aubrey and his girlfriend.
Alex Jones did it.
joe rogan
He was there.
eddie bravo
That's amazing.
Alex Jones was doing a fight companion with Aubrey and me.
joe rogan
That's amazing.
brendan schaub
It was pretty crazy.
joe rogan
Goddamn, I gotta listen to that now.
I'm gonna go back and listen to that.
brendan schaub
Dude, he is so impressed with...
eddie bravo
You know, because we knew Aubrey before Ani.
joe rogan
Yeah.
eddie bravo
You know, and to watch him blow the fuck.
It was pretty insane.
And I mean, I was blown away.
Because, for those of you that don't know, Ten Planet, Austin, we had a grand opening.
It's at the Honored Academy.
And man, I'd never been there when I was fucking floored, dude.
That place is gigantic, man.
joe rogan
It's incredible.
Yeah, Aubrey doesn't do anything half-assed.
He really puts his heart and soul in everything.
He's got a special knack for creating things and putting things together.
eddie bravo
He's an executive producer, man.
He's good at it.
brendan schaub
On everything, though.
You go to dinner, and it's like, I've never had a dinner like this.
I was on a boat, and there's just hoes everywhere.
I've never been on a boat like this.
For reals.
I'm like, dude, I've never been on a boat like this.
eddie bravo
That's like Biggie Smalls type shit.
brendan schaub
He's like, this is how we do it.
His playlist is from the heavens.
I'm like, can I have that playlist?
He's like, sure.
He's the best.
joe rogan
He's just an unusual dude.
brendan schaub
He really is.
joe rogan
Very, very unusual dude.
eddie bravo
Yeah, and so Alex wanted to do a piece on me because he's got people that work for him that do jujitsu.
joe rogan
Right.
brendan schaub
And so Alex found out that I was going to be there and he decided to go down and interview.
eddie bravo
Dude, he had an InfoWars mic.
Yes!
He's sitting next to me during the Invitational, during the tournament, which was fucking nuts!
And he's right there and Alex Jones is like, holy shit!
brendan schaub
It's pretty crazy.
joe rogan
That is crazy.
eddie bravo
And you know, he fell in love with jiu-jitsu.
He was there for the whole place, for the whole tournament, wanted to stay, stayed afterwards, stayed for the podcast.
He was there for hours with that InfoWars mic.
He wants to bring his daughters to jiu-jitsu.
He wants to do jiu-jitsu.
I hope he does.
brendan schaub
He used to be ripped.
joe rogan
Do you ever see what he used to look like?
Dude, he was a stud.
eddie bravo
He wants to get skinny and wiped again.
brendan schaub
Why don't I know this guy?
joe rogan
Alex Jones infomercials.
Infowars infomercials.
eddie bravo
He's the most popular conspiracy theorist.
He's like the...
brendan schaub
Ah, yeah, I definitely wouldn't know him.
joe rogan
He runs...
Well, he used to be a radio DJ a long time ago.
He's still kind of doing radio, but now most of it is on the internet, but he does a lot of it, I guess, on, like, AM stations.
I still think he syndicated.
He does both, right?
He does, like, the radio part, and then he does...
Because the dirty part, the internet part, is when Joey came on.
And Joey was swearing.
You've seen that thing.
That's all on the internet.
That's only his internet version.
But he has a radio version, too.
eddie bravo
I just get his app, and I just see him anytime.
brendan schaub
He's out there, it's like 24 hours.
And he's just been out conspiracy theorists?
joe rogan
Yeah, he's a conspiracy theorist guy.
Like, heavy-duty, over-the-top.
But he's been...
I've known him, I've been friends with him since 99?
I did...
I did a comedy DVD in Austin.
He and I put on George W. Bush masks.
I was Bush younger, and he was Bush older.
He was Herbert Walker Bush, and I was George W. Bush.
unidentified
Sounds awesome.
joe rogan
And we ran around the fucking Capitol building, like where the state Capitol is, in Austin, and filmed it.
It was just so retarded, so stupid.
brendan schaub
Random shit.
joe rogan
I became friends with him back then.
So we've known him for 16 years now.
eddie bravo
Yep.
brendan schaub
I bet you and him just get balls deep in conspiracy theories.
eddie bravo
We partied in Vegas one weekend.
Joe took him out to the UFC. He flew in.
You would think that he was like, dude, we're out partying.
Let's not talk about conspiracy theories.
unidentified
He's ready to go all day.
eddie bravo
He's got so much fucking information, man.
It's incredible.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's a funny dude.
eddie bravo
I love that dude.
That dude is so cool.
I could sit there and hang out with him for hours.
joe rogan
Of course you could.
I think people get the wrong impression.
eddie bravo
He's a genuinely good guy.
He's a really good guy.
unidentified
I'm sure.
eddie bravo
He's not just a fucking crazy wacko.
Everybody thought he was crazy back in the day, but even the last time Joe was on his show on the phone, you said, man, all that stuff that people were accusing you of being crazy about, all that shit is coming true, Alex.
You said that on the radio.
Like the NSA stuff?
He was the first one.
joe rogan
He was saying a long time ago that the NSA was going to be monitoring everyone's phone calls and was going to be recording everything you do.
eddie bravo
People thought he was not true.
joe rogan
They were like, you're out of your mind.
There's no way that's going to happen.
Also, one of the big ones that I found out from him was he had this...
This video called 9-1-1 The Road to Tyranny, I think it's called.
And a lot of it was about agent provocateurs.
And what it's about is how they would go into a peaceful protest and they would send these people, whether they were cops or soldiers, whoever the fuck they were, they were in government-issue boots and they would send them into these peaceful protests.
They would wear masks and they would just start smashing things.
So they would pretend that they were a part of the protest.
So they'd go into protest, they'd smash storefronts, they'd smash car windows, create havoc, then the cops would move in, and in the case of the World Trade Organization, these agent provocateur guys, these guys that got hired to go in and start smashing shit, they all went into a house and waited.
And then the cops waited outside.
They all negotiated.
Nobody rushed in and took these people.
And then they eventually let them all go.
There was some sort of behind-the-scenes conversation.
But when they did it, they stopped the entire protest.
They made it a protest-free zone.
And they were literally, and this is all on the news, they were literally telling people you couldn't go in there with a badge on.
If you had a badge that said WTO on it with a line through it, they were telling people you can't have that badge on as you go on your way to work.
unidentified
Jesus.
joe rogan
You're not allowed to protest.
It was a protest-free zone.
All because of these government agents.
Now, I thought, like, there's no way the government actually does that.
But it turns out, once I read that, or once I watched it, then I started reading about it.
And it's a common tactic.
They've done it forever.
unidentified
It's a technique.
eddie bravo
It's a technique.
It's just like, there's...
A bunch of CIA whistleblowers, ex-CIA agents.
John Stockwell, for once, a YouTube search, John Stockwell, he's written books.
He says that it's just techniques.
The way they set people up, the way they create patsies, they'll bring in some crazy, extreme, radical people, and they go, okay, you want to be in the CIA? Help us out.
And they set them up.
They got these dumb people that they What they'll do is, exactly what Joe said, they'll get professionals to go in there, cause some shit, kill people.
I'm not making this up.
This is what John Stockwell says.
They go in there, and the more people they kill, the more effective it is actually.
So what they'll do is they'll take professional dudes that go in there and take people out, and then they'll put their patsy in there, boom, blame them, put some shit on the fucking media, they run the media anyways, and then they shoot the patsies.
We got them, some crazy people.
joe rogan
Lee Harvey Oswald.
unidentified
Exactly.
joe rogan
That's the Lee Harvey Oswald story.
Lee Harvey Oswald was an idiot.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
I mean, he's definitely an idiot.
He went to Russia.
eddie bravo
They set him up the whole time.
joe rogan
He's a knucklehead.
eddie bravo
They set him up the whole time.
joe rogan
That guy was a knucklehead.
eddie bravo
He was involved.
brendan schaub
We are balls deep in conspiracy theories.
We are already.
I like it.
unidentified
Brendan, Brendan.
joe rogan
He's getting ramped up, though.
eddie bravo
Look at him.
brendan schaub
You know what it is?
I get scared when he goes off.
Hey, Brendan.
unidentified
Look at his face.
eddie bravo
He doesn't even listen to us.
No, you're...
No, because when we mentioned Alex Jones and you'd never heard of him, and then when we said he was a famous conspiracy theorist, you say, oh, that's why I don't know Mike.
joe rogan
No, it's just because he doesn't get into that shit.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I'm not into that stuff.
joe rogan
Powerful Alex Jones.
eddie bravo
Oh shit!
brendan schaub
Still don't know him.
joe rogan
What I was going to say, Eddie, when you were on your rant, is most people, they only know him from his broadcast, so they assume that he's just like a crazy guy who just is constantly looking for conspiracies everywhere.
When you hang with him in person, he's like a super nice guy.
eddie bravo
He's a great guy.
joe rogan
He's super sweet.
He's fun.
brendan schaub
He just doesn't shut up.
unidentified
I don't know the guy.
eddie bravo
Hey, Brendan, all conspiracy theories are the way shit really is.
The way shit really is run.
brendan schaub
Well, not every one of them.
eddie bravo
Not every one of them.
joe rogan
The problem is everybody looks for them.
eddie bravo
Just because not every conspiracy theory or rumor or whatever is true, does that mean you just forget about the other ones?
unidentified
No, not at all.
joe rogan
No, it doesn't, but there's something unbalanced about only looking for them.
Like, I know dudes that all they care about is conspiracies, and they're so exhausting.
eddie bravo
Again, conspiracy theories are theories on how shit really is run.
Some people really like to know how their life, everything that these conspiracies, theories...
All of them affect our lives every day, and so when you think about it like that, and you start thinking about it, my life, this life, has a big effect on my life with stuff like 9-11, and all these events, like these shootings, all these false flag events, our lives are affected.
joe rogan
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
What shootings do you think are false flag events?
eddie bravo
Oh, man.
brendan schaub
You're talking about sand?
joe rogan
You're talking about mass shootings on TV? Like the school shooting?
eddie bravo
You know what?
brendan schaub
The teacher got fired for saying that.
eddie bravo
Listen, to question, we already know they're all crooks.
We know how they set up.
joe rogan
Who's all crooks?
eddie bravo
The people that are really running shit.
joe rogan
Okay, let's talk about Fox.
brendan schaub
We're going down this weird road.
Okay, they're not crooks.
Okay, I take that back.
joe rogan
Some of them are crooks.
brendan schaub
Some are, yeah.
eddie bravo
The people that have all the power.
We generally are crooks.
Not every single one.
Not every single one, of course.
We're talking in general terms.
joe rogan
Even if they're not crooks, one of the things that you'll find in government is they'll make laws that don't make any fucking sense and that are evil.
And then they abide by those laws.
brendan schaub
To benefit them, correct?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
There's a lot of crazy...
brendan schaub
Financial gain.
joe rogan
Here's a good one.
one.
The Supreme Court passed a ruling that allowed corporations to act as individuals so they can essentially donate as much money to a campaign as they so choose.
So if a corporation wants to elect a president, they can essentially bribe their way and get this person into the Well, it's nuts that they're allowed to spend any money.
How about that?
It should be the opposite.
It should be a person should be thought of as a person.
An individual should be thought of as an individual.
And a corporation should be thought of as a soulless entity, a group where people get together and work.
It should never be thought of as an individual, like one thing that can act in its own interest, like it's alive.
To stay alive, it's going to bribe people to make sure it has the cushiest rules and regulations.
So in that sense, yeah, those guys are crooks.
Like, that's a crook move.
You know what I started watching?
It's really fucking good.
brendan schaub
Walking Dead.
joe rogan
House of Cards.
brendan schaub
I heard it's really good.
joe rogan
It's fucking good.
brendan schaub
My brother loves that show.
joe rogan
You would love it.
You would love it.
Because it's all about the president, and this guy becomes president.
No spoiler alert.
Kevin Spacey.
And then you find out all the inner workings.
And I was like, I'm not into politics.
It's like watching a fixed game of baseball.
It's boring to me.
It makes me angry.
It makes me angry that these are our candidates.
It makes me angry.
There's no one that's really saying something that really resonates with me.
Everyone's saying something that's inside the parameters of the system.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
So they do this show and Kevin Spacey plays the president.
He shows all the inner workings of like how deals are made and how they negotiate and all the behind-the-scenes stuff.
brendan schaub
That sounds dope.
joe rogan
It's fascinating.
It's fucking good because it's really good.
Good writing.
I keep hearing that.
brendan schaub
I keep hearing that.
joe rogan
You would love it and I had to bring it up because I knew you would love it.
brendan schaub
Not a CIA stuff?
joe rogan
All sorts of crazy, deep, dark, undercover shit.
You would love it.
You would love it.
You'd go crazy.
And you know, probably a lot of it is the case.
Like, who the fuck knows, man?
Who the fuck knows?
Maybe they paid Nate Diaz to go off on Fox.
Maybe there's a conspiracy there.
unidentified
That was brilliant.
brendan schaub
Maybe his manager got together with the UFC. What is everyone talking about?
Diaz.
We're not talking about Dos Anjos.
We're not talking about Overeem.
We're talking about Nate Diaz.
joe rogan
That was where I was conflicted.
As a broadcaster, I'm so conflicted.
As a Nate Diaz fan, and as a comedian, and as a fellow marijuana advocate, I was fucking howling.
I wanted to go, yes!
Keep going!
Keep going!
They're fucking screaming in my ear.
Screaming in my ear.
Cut him off!
Cut him off!
Take the mic away!
Cut him off!
That was the best post-fight speech ever, right?
I am not about to cut him off.
I'm not doing it.
brendan schaub
It was great.
joe rogan
I'm not pulling that mic away.
I'm not being the man.
unidentified
I love it.
joe rogan
They were fucking screaming in my ear to shut him off my mic.
brendan schaub
Oh, I can't imagine.
joe rogan
You're gonna have to fire me.
I'm not fucking taking the mic away from him.
brendan schaub
Whose idea was it to let him even get on the mic?
unidentified
Me!
joe rogan
Everybody!
You do!
He won!
He won and he looked amazing!
unidentified
I agree, he looked amazing, but we know it's fucking Nate Diaz!
brendan schaub
If I'm Fox, I'm like, alright, you can interview whoever you want.
Don't give Diaz the fucking mic!
joe rogan
I figure they talked to him.
Listen, he had a great fight.
I thought he was going to be chill.
I thought he was going to talk about Michael Johnson.
I didn't know he was going to talk about Conor.
brendan schaub
I thought he was going to be chill.
joe rogan
Dude, this is how badass Conor McGregor is.
Three fighters called him out.
brendan schaub
Three dudes.
joe rogan
Three fighters.
Three!
brendan schaub
You see his reply?
Get on your knees and beg!
joe rogan
He's standing in front of a convertible Rolls Royce.
brendan schaub
So gangster!
I love it.
unidentified
He's so gangster.
brendan schaub
That's the fight, though.
Diaz is the fight.
joe rogan
Well, it's a very good fight.
brendan schaub
If I'm Dana White, I'm not saying what's the right thing to do.
I'm saying if I'm looking for the biggest show, the biggest numbers, Diaz.
Can you imagine that world tour?
joe rogan
What the fuck?
brendan schaub
And it's his first fight at 155, so he can sell that.
joe rogan
Look at this.
Line them up with their hands out.
On their knees with their hands out.
I want them to beg me.
brendan schaub
In front of a phantom sun.
joe rogan
That's a phantom convertible sun.
That's about $400,000 for the car.
brendan schaub
Damn, dude.
Damn.
joe rogan
This guy is so fucking unusual.
He's so unusual.
brendan schaub
Three dudes called him out.
joe rogan
But it's so crazy that in MMA, it took, what, 15 fucking years of MMA popularity?
I mean, MMA's 20, what is it, 22 years old now?
What is it?
When did it start?
93, right?
So it's 22 years, right?
That's not 22 years?
We're both retarded.
unidentified
Almost 24. Okay, so let's think about that.
joe rogan
In that time, in the past, I'd say it's been really popular since the early 2000s, maybe?
brendan schaub
Not really, right?
joe rogan
Okay, let's give it 10 years.
So in 10 years of real popularity, this is the first guy that emerges like this.
This first...
Like, superstar, besides Brock Lesnar.
Brock Lesnar was pretty much a superstar, but it was a different thing.
He was like a superstar coming over from the wrestling, so he just carried all those fans over that wanted to see if he could do it.
And plus, you look at him, you go, Jesus fucking Christ.
Like, that's the guy that you would have...
When you think of cage fighting, you would think of a guy who looks like that.
He's got a sword tattooed on his chest.
I agree.
I mean, what the...
It's not the best sword.
It's not a good one.
Whoever did that's an asshole.
brendan schaub
I love him.
Right when he left, like, you gotta see this dick I put on Lesnar's chest.
It's great.
Yeah.
joe rogan
But Conor, there's never been a dude, like, that just, all of a sudden, everyone's talking about him.
Everyone's captivated.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
And he pulls it off.
That's the craziest shit.
He goes, I'm not gonna...
He bet Dana White that he would knock out Chad Mendes inside of four rounds.
He wanted to bet three million dollars.
brendan schaub
He called the round.
He said second round.
joe rogan
Yeah, he said second round.
brendan schaub
What the fuck?
joe rogan
Well, it's the same thing he did with Aldo.
He said he was gonna knock him out inside of two minutes.
brendan schaub
We laugh at it.
unidentified
It's crazy.
brendan schaub
It's like, come on.
joe rogan
I told Dustin Poirier, first world-class opponent.
He's going, I'm going to knock you out in the first round.
brendan schaub
It's crazy, man.
joe rogan
And everybody's like, what?
Meanwhile, crack.
brendan schaub
But there's some monster fights out there waiting for him.
I just think, if I'm Conor McGregor's manager and I'm doing what's best for his career...
Frankie's a tough fight.
I'm not saying he can't win it.
Frankie's a very tough fight, and Dos Anjos is the toughest fight.
But then you got Diaz in the middle at 55. Huge payday.
Great matchup style for Conor.
That's the fight I take.
joe rogan
First of all, how good did Nate Diaz look physically?
brendan schaub
Best we've seen him look ever.
joe rogan
Shredded.
Full six-pack, looked in tremendous shape, and didn't even come close to winning in that fight.
I mean, they were throwing down in that fight.
brendan schaub
Johnson was beat.
He got beat inside the cage.
If you listen to his corner, they go, don't quit.
joe rogan
Stick with it.
Don't quit.
They're screaming at him.
Don't quit.
What the fuck?
Henry Hoof says that sometimes to guys.
He yelled that out to Rumble.
When Rumble was getting beat up by DC, he was yelling, don't quit.
Don't quit.
That is not what you need to hear.
Maybe someone needs to talk to him.
He's a fucking fantastic kickboxing coach, but you can't even put that out there.
brendan schaub
That was never in my coach's vocabulary.
joe rogan
You can't put that out there.
You can't put that out there.
brendan schaub
Do I look like I'm about to quit?
joe rogan
He probably can't help it because it's probably what he's thinking.
He's probably thinking, don't quit.
brendan schaub
True.
When Michael Johnson in that fight, you could see he was starting to break, and then he was sitting right in front of him, just eating one twos.
joe rogan
When Nate was popping him and then doing this, going, oh shit, I just rang your bell.
He's just standing in front of him.
He goes, oh shit.
And he's pointing right at his face.
You could see Michael Johnson was like, I can't even believe this is happening.
brendan schaub
Because he shouldn't be there.
He shouldn't be standing in front of him.
He's so athletic.
He should be using angles, using his wrestling.
He did none of it.
joe rogan
I think people underestimated Nate Diaz.
That's what I think.
brendan schaub
Horrible idea.
joe rogan
But he was an underdog in that fight.
Like a pretty good underdog.
brendan schaub
Idiots.
Again, idiots.
joe rogan
I just don't think anybody who made the line went and watched him train.
If you see what a good shape he was in and how good his hands looked, Jesus Christ.
That's as good as he's ever looked.
brendan schaub
But before he fell out of the rankings, what was he, five?
Before he took all that time off?
joe rogan
Yeah, but Dos Anjos beat the shit out of him a year ago.
brendan schaub
Beat the brakes off him.
joe rogan
Yeah.
One of the things that I was thinking about was how heavy he stands on that front leg.
You know, he stands real heavy on that front leg.
And Dos Anjos just lightened that leg up.
unidentified
Correct.
joe rogan
And he was lighting that leg up.
Because Nate fights southpaw, right?
And Dos Anjos fights southpaw.
So it opens him up to that back leg kick and he was just chewing up the outside of that fucking front leg.
brendan schaub
Connor would definitely be the favorite if they fight.
joe rogan
It's a great fight though.
brendan schaub
The shit talking.
eddie bravo
Imagine the shit talking.
Because Connor's not going to be able to go up to Nate Diaz and go...
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
He's not going to be able to do that.
joe rogan
But that might be a problem because Nate Diaz might actually punch him in the mouth.
unidentified
There's no way Nate Diaz is going to allow that.
eddie bravo
He'll spit on him.
joe rogan
He'll wait for him in front of his fucking door in the morning.
He'll find out what room he's in and he'll wait in front of the door and punch him in the face when he goes to get breakfast.
eddie bravo
I agree.
He really will.
Connor is so brilliant with his shit talking.
What is he going to think of?
Like for Nate Diaz specifically, is he going to go?
Because he goes real deep.
He goes right to the core.
unidentified
You know what I mean?
brendan schaub
He brings – It won't work on Diaz though.
joe rogan
I don't know what'll work and what won't work, but I'll tell you what, no one has gotten Nate more emotional, or no one has gotten Cowboy more emotional than Nate.
When Cowboy started shit-talking Nate, knocked his hat, or rather, when Nate started shit-talking Cowboy and knocked his hat off, was getting in his face, you could tell it was fucking with Cowboy's, like, his mind.
He was really emotionally wrapped up in the first round of that fight.
He talked about it, he's like, I'll never let that happen again.
He's like, I got inside my head, I fucked up.
But it's the fact that Nate can do that to you.
brendan schaub
He's not going to do it to Conor.
unidentified
I wonder what it would be like to watch.
brendan schaub
It's fucking epic!
That's why we need this fight.
eddie bravo
The greatest show would be just Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor.
Just give him 30 minutes, have like a mediator a little bit and just kind of just let him go.
joe rogan
You'd have to have like Overeem and Ben Rothwell in between them.
Yeah, for real.
eddie bravo
Just monsters.
joe rogan
Just two big gorillas and let them talk.
Tell Ben Rothwell and Overeem, look, you got a big bonus coming to you.
brendan schaub
Give them that Reebok money, son.
Double the Reebok money.
They would for sure fight.
Just don't let them kill each other.
Double Reebok for both of you.
How about, but Nate wants to fight.
eddie bravo
You just put them in a cage.
unidentified
You just put a fucking fence right there and just let them talk.
joe rogan
You gotta somehow or another make it so they can't hit each other.
You gotta say, listen, boys, there is millions of dollars on the line here.
eddie bravo
You have security.
No, you put a fence.
You put a fence up and put them on either side of the fence and just let them go.
joe rogan
No, that would be fucking crazy.
It's not a bad idea.
brendan schaub
Can you imagine the marketing?
Can you imagine the marketing?
You have four badass security guards, all black, standing between them while they're talking.
eddie bravo
No, you don't need to.
brendan schaub
No, all black.
Black uniforms.
unidentified
Easy, easy.
joe rogan
I thought I meant black guys.
I don't care.
unidentified
How about Hawaiians?
joe rogan
Can we get some Hawaiians?
Big guys?
Big Samoan looking?
brendan schaub
Big Samoans just will fucking snatch them in half.
joe rogan
Those are the scariest ones because they don't get hurt.
brendan schaub
I agree.
You can't really hurt them.
It's like Mark Hunt.
joe rogan
How about you put him on a phone like in a prison?
eddie bravo
How about you put him on a phone like they're in a prison, you know what I mean, with a glass and they just talk to each other on the fucking phone?
joe rogan
That's not a bad idea.
It's a prison glass shit.
That is actually a good idea.
unidentified
Eddie Bravo with two strong ideas in a row for marketing.
brendan schaub
I don't know if you can market the prison glass.
joe rogan
You know why?
Because you're the only one that's not high here.
unidentified
Me and Eddie, we're on the same level.
joe rogan
I'm feeling his ideas.
eddie bravo
Can you imagine him screaming at the fucking phone?
Can you imagine Nate Diaz going, fuck you!
joe rogan
Stockton!
unidentified
Fuck you!
brendan schaub
Fox is going to go, yeah, let's fucking...
eddie bravo
Joey Diaz would be the host.
brendan schaub
That'd be brilliant.
eddie bravo
Come on!
How would Joey Diaz start off the show?
joe rogan
Oh my god.
That would be hilarious.
brendan schaub
Dude, but Diaz wants this big fight because he's getting paid 20 and 20. Is that real?
That's real.
joe rogan
Are we sure?
brendan schaub
I'm positive.
joe rogan
That doesn't make any sense.
brendan schaub
I saw the payouts at the commission.
Now, he might have undisclosed bonus, but as far as contractually that we know, it's 20 and 20. Now, I'm not blaming the UFC. Hopefully he's not in the tough contract.
That's bad management, though.
That's horrible management.
As big of a star as he is, that motherfucker should be getting at least 120 and 120 a fight.
joe rogan
Yeah, I agree.
And more than that, probably.
brendan schaub
Well, that's why he didn't fight for a while.
joe rogan
Nate Diaz is a giant star.
Let me tell you this.
When he went out into that arena, they went fucking crazy.
That crowd went fucking crazy.
When Nate Diaz was raising his arms after every round, they went fucking crazy.
brendan schaub
Who are we talking about?
Think about all the stars on the card.
Who's the number one most clicked guy right now?
joe rogan
That one guy.
Well, his performance, first of all, was outstanding against a guy in Michael Johnson who's an up-and-coming lightweight who's been really on a tear.
Michael Johnson's looked fantastic.
I thought his fight with Benil Dariush was kind of a questionable decision.
brendan schaub
He probably should have won it, yeah.
joe rogan
Maybe.
You could see it.
Maybe that way.
brendan schaub
I'm a Darius fan.
eddie bravo
Good fight.
joe rogan
I'm a big Darius fan.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he's a monster.
joe rogan
Benil Darius is a bad motherfucker, but a fight is a fight, right?
unidentified
I agree.
eddie bravo
And why didn't Nate Diaz get that knee bar at the end?
He fucking had it.
brendan schaub
No, time was over, bro.
eddie bravo
All you need is one fucking second.
unidentified
No, no, no.
joe rogan
Time was totally over.
unidentified
Totally over.
joe rogan
When he extended it, it was after the buzzer.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
joe rogan
He grabbed it, and then the buzzer went, and he extended it after the buzzer.
brendan schaub
Johnson just let him have it.
joe rogan
He was saying, I had your knee, or something like that.
He's like, fuck with him.
brendan schaub
The bell was way over, homie.
eddie bravo
I don't know about that.
unidentified
No, no, no.
brendan schaub
Trust me.
We watched it.
joe rogan
We watched it in the truck over and over again.
It definitely was...
brendan schaub
And then he was all...
joe rogan
I love it!
Because I was like, why did Johnson kick him?
And then I saw another angle.
The way I'm looking at him, I'm looking at them from eye height, right?
So where my eyes are, that's where their body is on the other side of the cage.
I couldn't see the knee bar.
And I'm like, why would Michael Johnson kick him after the fight is over?
And then I saw the whole thing.
I go, oh, he deserved it.
brendan schaub
100%.
joe rogan
But he didn't hurt him.
I think he was just fucking with him even further.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
He was having a good time.
Look, we're all talking about him, but I wonder if you can get fined.
By the commission?
100%.
Well, the FCC. I was asking someone online about this today.
Because it's like radio.
There's rules now, and I think a lot of them got passed after Howard Stern.
Because what happened with Howard Stern was, Howard Stern, he got fined for questionable subject matter, which is fucking insane.
And it was one of the weirdest moments in free speech time, because really everybody should have stood up and said something about it.
I mean, every fucking magazine should have been talking about what a travesty it is, that you're trying to stop a show that's on the radio, that anybody could turn one way or the other, and he's not even swearing.
He's playing within your rules.
But for subject matter they were finding them like huge money.
brendan schaub
What was the subject matter?
unidentified
Farts?
joe rogan
Whatever, you talk about whatever.
Anything sexual or anything they felt was offensive, they were getting them on subject matter.
brendan schaub
Super weird rules.
Like you can say dick, but if I say I put my dick in your mouth, you can't find.
joe rogan
Do you know you can say Jesus, but if you say Jesus Christ, You're not supposed to say Jesus Christ.
Like, there was a tennis match where one of the kids, there was like two people playing tennis, and one of them had to forfeit the match because they said Jesus Christ when they missed.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
Exactly.
brendan schaub
That's ridiculous.
joe rogan
Like, just saying that alone...
Like, I saved it.
It was a story from years ago, and I always wanted to do a bit about it, but I would get so mad when I would read it that I'm like, this isn't even going to be funny.
Like, there's nothing funny about it.
eddie bravo
It was a blessing in disguise, though, because that was a big reason why he went to satellite radio.
I love, I just got it.
I've had it for the last year.
brendan schaub
I love it, man.
He just re-signed a five-year deal.
Oh, yeah.
Huge deal.
eddie bravo
Such a good show.
joe rogan
Well, he has the best interviews.
His interviews are excellent.
eddie bravo
And he has, like, man, lately it seems like he's bigger than ever.
He just keeps getting, like, he's getting serious.
brendan schaub
He can't get any bigger.
eddie bravo
A-list stars to be interviewed.
brendan schaub
I mean, he's, it's, uh...
unidentified
So the point is that Diaz could get fined for that and for the late kick.
joe rogan
I don't know, well, he didn't kick him.
Oh, that's right, sorry.
Johnson kicked him.
brendan schaub
Correct, holding that.
joe rogan
And he didn't hurt him with that, so that's super questionable.
unidentified
No, that's bullshit.
joe rogan
But the swearing on the air, if you do it on purpose, I think you can get in trouble.
I don't know what the rules are.
I'm just talking out of my ass, but I've been told, like on live radio, that if you chose to swear on live radio, if they went after you, they could fine you, and they could fine you a lot of money, like hundreds of thousands of dollars.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's crazy.
brendan schaub
That's a bummer.
joe rogan
Well, it's just dark, man.
It's just dark that they can take money from you and it goes where?
Where does it go?
Does it go anywhere helpful?
Or does it just get eaten up by your red tape fucking overrun system?
I mean, where does that money go?
You're just stealing money from me.
You're going to steal it and then pump it out into this machine?
It doesn't make any sense?
brendan schaub
Even if they charge him...
I don't think he's going to get fined.
Let's say they fined him $100,000, but he gets the Conor McGregor fight.
It's worth every penny.
joe rogan
It's brilliant.
brendan schaub
There's a reason three dudes are calling Connor out, because that's the payday.
joe rogan
How about his brother with the pot charge?
They fined him $165,000 and then they kept him out of fighting for five years.
brendan schaub
That was the rule.
joe rogan
It's insane.
It's beyond silly.
eddie bravo
Where do you see Tony Ferguson in that mix?
brendan schaub
I could see Tony...
joe rogan
Oh, he's right there.
After the Barboza fight?
brendan schaub
I could see Tony and Cowboy.
eddie bravo
Dude, he beat Barboza.
Holy shit.
Dude, finished him.
People are scared of Edson Barboza.
brendan schaub
No one is confident when they go into that fight.
eddie bravo
They're like, oh shit.
joe rogan
He's got, in my opinion, the fastest kicks I've ever seen in MMA. Barboza?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
100%.
joe rogan
He's so fast.
His switch kick off his front leg...
brendan schaub
Amazing.
joe rogan
It's the fastest switch kick I've ever seen in my life.
I've never seen anybody faster.
He's like a 130-pound Taekwondo guy.
Like a little tiny Korean guy that moves like lightning.
That's how good he is.
Like, his switch kick is just...
It's insane.
It's like...
It's so fast.
brendan schaub
I could see Tony and Cowboy fighting.
joe rogan
Fuck yeah.
brendan schaub
That's a phenomenal fuck.
eddie bravo
Tony's ready for those guys right there.
unidentified
100%.
brendan schaub
I said 2016 is Tony's year.
I think he's the guy where everyone's like, fuck, I don't want to fight that dude.
joe rogan
He can't sleep on Nurmagomedov either.
That fucking guy, if he can get healthy...
brendan schaub
I'm sleeping on him because he's not healthy.
joe rogan
But if he can get healthy, and he can figure out a way to stop being injured, like he does, the last one was a rib, which you can't really control, but the knees, he's done his knees a couple times now, and I think he's done his knees after surgery.
I think he hurt his knee, got it fixed, and then hurt again, which is never good.
So people are a little bummed out that he hasn't been in action.
brendan schaub
He's a motherfucker.
If he's healthy, remember, he slammed the champ around like a fucking ragdoll.
He just tossed him around.
joe rogan
He just did whatever he wanted to once he got ahold of him.
brendan schaub
He's a nightmare.
If he gets healthy, they're all fucked.
joe rogan
It's almost, though, like he's too tough for his joints.
You know, it's almost like his style is so hard, and he's got so much fucking strength and technique and so much torque.
Like, when he ragdolls guys, it's a very unique kind of ragdoll.
brendan schaub
It's explosive ragdoll.
joe rogan
It's also, he's ragdolling guys that no one ragdolls.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
Like, when he ragdolled Dos Anjos, that was like, whoa!
I ain't never seen anybody do this to Dos Anjos.
brendan schaub
It's insane, man.
joe rogan
Klay Guida beat him, but he got a broken jaw, and Klay finished him with his jaw broken.
Remember, Klay was doing an arm triangle?
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
And he had a broken jaw.
brendan schaub
This is the Russian you're talking about?
joe rogan
No, no, no, Dos Anjos.
brendan schaub
Oh, that was in Denver.
Against who?
I think so.
joe rogan
We're talking about Nurmagomedov.
unidentified
Okay.
joe rogan
Habib Nurmagomedov, the way he ragdolled Dos Anjos.
brendan schaub
He beat Dos Anjos.
joe rogan
Beat him.
He just threw him around, man.
brendan schaub
Beat his ass.
joe rogan
Threw him around.
eddie bravo
How long ago was that?
joe rogan
Two years ago?
eddie bravo
The champion.
joe rogan
It was the last loss on Dos Anjos record.
brendan schaub
No one wants to fight him.
Cowboy was supposed to fight him.
eddie bravo
Who else has he fought?
joe rogan
But, I gotta say, I don't think that Dos Anjos is the same Dos Anjos we're looking at now.
brendan schaub
I agree 100%.
joe rogan
His strength and conditioning program is fucking gnarly.
brendan schaub
He looked phenomenal.
joe rogan
You gotta talk to Nick Curzon.
You should have him on your podcast.
eddie bravo
Yeah.
joe rogan
He's that speed of sport guy.
Yeah, I've heard of him.
He works with Fabrizio Verdum, Ruslan Pravodnikov.
He works with a lot of Olympic athletes.
brendan schaub
Oh, Jake Ellenberg is just telling me about him.
joe rogan
Yeah, and Joe Schilling is working with him now, too.
He has these guys doing all these crazy plyometric drills.
Everyone swears by him.
Everyone swears by him.
Dude, I'll tell you, I had this guy in, and I talked to him, and I was super impressed.
Super impressed with his knowledge, with his understanding, and with his philosophy.
And I was like, what is the big difference?
What's the most important thing?
He's like, foot strength.
I was like, whoa.
He's like, it's all about covering distance and all about the ability to move and balance in movements, and it's all about figuring out how to close the distance quicker.
And he was saying that when he fought Pettis, Dos Anjos was just that much quicker at every exchange.
He pulled the trigger that much faster, landed that much faster, and he's like, and over the course of a fight, even though he's only that much better over the course of the fight, that adds up.
brendan schaub
You get fucked up.
joe rogan
And that's what you saw last night.
Dos Anjos would just jump the gun.
He was just there.
brendan schaub
I think it's a combo of things.
I think...
Talking, you know, knowing Cowboy as long as I've known him, he just, and he even said it in his post-fight interview, he just said, listen, I didn't show up, and in this business, when you don't show up to work, you don't feel like fighting, you get your ass whooped.
So I think it's...
joe rogan
He didn't feel like fighting?
He said that?
brendan schaub
Yeah, he's been there before too, man.
He's been there before, and he ended up KOing dudes.
Cowboy's always had a problem in the back.
The reason I didn't like this for Cowboy is because of the time off.
Cowboy's an active guy, so he doesn't have to think about it.
You give him six months, that's trouble for Cowboy.
joe rogan
You know, man, I don't know if any of that would have mattered, the way Dos Anjos pulled the trigger.
brendan schaub
I agree 100%.
I think Dos Anjos looked phenomenal.
joe rogan
But I do have to say that there has to be some sense made out of when fights get stopped and when fights don't get stopped.
I'm not saying that fight shouldn't have been stopped, but I am saying that Chris Wybin vs.
Luke Rockhold should have been stopped.
unidentified
I agree.
joe rogan
I think we have to figure out what is the when?
What's the when?
I mean, I don't know when it is, but I felt like Cowboy was covering up and eating shots, and although I'm not unhappy with the stoppage, like I didn't protest it, I was like, man, I don't know.
It is for a title, but referee's there.
He sees what he sees.
I don't.
There's a giant difference between doing that and then what was happening at the end of the round where Rockhold was mounted on Weidman and just beating his brains in.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
That was bad.
That felt to me like I was like, Jesus Christ.
And I think I even said, what does it take to stop the fight?
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
Because how many shots can he take?
brendan schaub
The thing is with Cowboy, why...
Lister Bowling, I talked to his coach, Lister Bowling, and he goes, man, you think he was stopped earlier?
And I said, I don't because Cowboy's been in the game long enough.
He knows when he's in turtle like that and he's getting punched, Cowboy knows, man.
They can stop it.
They give you a warning.
Do something or I'm going to stop the fight.
If Cowboy would just roll to guard and manage distance or grabbed him and controlled him, the fight would have carried on.
But when I don't see Cowboy responding, I don't want to say he wanted out, but he knows what's going on.
Trust me, I've been...
Shit like that happens.
joe rogan
So when he's covering up, you think what he really should have been doing is moving and scrambling.
brendan schaub
He should just roll.
joe rogan
So by just standing there and covering up, he basically invited the stoppage.
brendan schaub
Yes.
I'm not saying he wanted out.
He might have been hurt.
joe rogan
He probably was hurt.
brendan schaub
And it's kind of like, you know, man.
They come in the back, they go, listen, if I tell you to move, I'm close to stopping it.
And you can hear it clear as day.
Like my last fight with Travis Brown, I turned to the ref, I said, I'm fine, because I know where it's going to get stopped.
I know when I'm in trouble and they're about to stop it.
I turned to him, I go, I'm good.
It's tough, man.
And so Cowboys has so much experience.
If you just went to guard, you would have bought him some time.
joe rogan
I'll tell you what, man.
He had to be wrong because Dos Anjos just teed off on him.
brendan schaub
To the body.
joe rogan
That knee to the body was nasty, and then the kick, and then he uncorks.
And Cowboy said the kick didn't land.
I think he means the kick didn't hurt him.
It definitely landed.
brendan schaub
It landed 100%.
joe rogan
Yeah, but I think he meant it didn't hurt him.
brendan schaub
He said the knee is what did it.
joe rogan
I think the knee really hurt him, and then the kick was just icing on the cake.
It wasn't what put him away, but that barrage of punches, too.
He's fucking terrifying.
brendan schaub
Terrifying, man.
joe rogan
You know what's cool about him, too?
We watched him get better.
Like, we saw him against Jeremy Stephens.
He got KO'd against Jeremy Stephens.
brendan schaub
He started off on two in the UFC. Yeah.
joe rogan
I mean, he's a guy who just fucking kept on working.
brendan schaub
He's the nicest guy in the world.
When I was in Brazil, man, I'm telling you, no one gave me the time of day.
This dude took me around, introduced me to different...
Great dude, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, I've talked to him many times backstage.
He's so calm and polite and friendly.
He's at peace.
He's an interesting guy.
He's just trying to heal my knee up, trying to get everything right.
brendan schaub
You want him to win.
If you know the guy, you root for him to win.
Not that I took heat, and I say this whether they're Brazilian or not, I say the X factors, and this is everyone, and it's not Dos Angeles.
I never said Dos Angeles was on stuff, but to me, when I was picking Dos Angeles and Cowboy, I said the X factor is if someone was taking shit, we're going to see different fighters.
Now, it can't be for Cowboy or Dos Santos, but that's all around the board.
I'm not saying anything that's new.
If steroids wasn't an issue, performance-enhancing drugs wasn't an issue, the UFC wouldn't have implemented the strictest drug testing ever in the history of sports.
joe rogan
It's true, and I want to say something without implicating anyone, because this subject gets brought up a lot, and people are always like, you guys are talking shit, and you don't know what you're talking about.
Let me just say that...
Everyone behind the scenes, all the trainers, all the coaches, all the managers, everyone is having this conversation.
These conversations that we're having on this podcast are not unique in that sense.
These are not ideas that we have.
These are not theories that we have.
Look, Jeff Nowitzki is sniffing up these dudes asses and he's not playing games.
brendan schaub
Why do you think that is?
Because the UFC was like, you know what, let's just make it the strictest drug testing of all time.
Hell no.
There's a real problem there.
joe rogan
Well, there's definitely a real problem, or was a real problem, but the idea that it's only us that's talking about it is crazy, because we're the only ones talking about it as publicly as we do, but behind the scenes, it is a constant conversation.
brendan schaub
Oh, any time I talk to anyone in the game, it's the conversation.
When we get done here, I'll have texts from coaches, other fighters.
joe rogan
And we can't even name names.
Sometimes people come up to us and they'll say someone's going to have a hard time because he's off the shit.
brendan schaub
100%.
joe rogan
And then they'll go in there and they'll get crushed.
And we'll go, whoa, this is nuts.
brendan schaub
The thing is with Aldo, I took so much shit for that.
You've got to realize he was the fighter at the present time when we're talking about this.
I'm not singling out Aldo.
I never said Aldo was on steroids.
I said there's some things to me that were suspicious.
What he's done for the sport is great.
He's one of my favorite fighters.
He's phenomenal.
Yeah.
Whether he's on shit or not, it doesn't matter.
joe rogan
My favorite fighter of all time was probably on shit.
Vanderlei is like, if I had to choose one guy who had the most fun watching, the Vanderlei and the Pride days, he was a goddamn berserker.
Every fight was, ah!
You'd fucking be grabbing pillows.
How many times did we watch Vanderlei fight in Pride?
Just screaming.
brendan schaub
Vanderlei, Cro Cop?
Cro Cop's my favorite fighter of all time.
He just got busted last week.
I don't give a fuck.
joe rogan
Yeah, he got busted too.
eddie bravo
Why do you suppose the Japanese...
Didn't care about steroids.
joe rogan
They wanted you on steroids because you could perform better.
brendan schaub
They want the freak show, too.
joe rogan
Well, they also want you to fight like crazy.
They want you to fight like a wild man.
They don't want you to win like a really close decision.
They don't want you to do that.
They want you to go out fucking Vanderlei style or Shogun style or ninja style.
brendan schaub
They want you to go out on your shield.
joe rogan
And they wanted you on steroids.
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
They literally wanted you on steroids.
We know.
We have a friend that went over there.
They offered him a fight at 185 pounds.
He's like, I fight at 155. Oh, we know.
And they were like, dude, we got some shit that's going to fix that.
unidentified
We got you, son.
eddie bravo
They said, how much do you weigh now?
He's like, 170?
brendan schaub
175?
He goes, you have a good frame for 185. I'm terrible at voices.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's a good voice.
brendan schaub
That's great.
unidentified
Oh, you are 175 right now.
joe rogan
You have to do a half terribly.
It's like Bobby Lee's act.
unidentified
You can be 185. No a problem.
No a problem.
joe rogan
You ever heard Robby Lee do his dad?
That's what he does.
He adds like an uh to everything.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Phenomenal.
But you want to talk about PEDs, especially when you talk about Overeem and Dos Santos.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
brendan schaub
Listen, man...
Overeem was on some shit.
We all know this.
joe rogan
Overeem was 100%.
brendan schaub
100%.
So the X Factor was...
joe rogan
Well, he got caught.
brendan schaub
Yes!
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I'm not saying anything that's not out there.
unidentified
Right, it's not out there.
brendan schaub
So the X Factor was, what kind of Overeem are we going to get?
joe rogan
I'm still a big fan of Overeem.
He looked great.
I'm telling you what, man.
brendan schaub
Me too.
I'm a huge fan.
joe rogan
You know, people think, because here's the thing, like, there's other sports where if you accuse a guy of cheating, everybody hates that guy.
Like, you know, people will talk about certain athletes that got caught doing something, and then people will go, fuck that guy, man, he's a fucking cheater.
Like, I heard dudes talking about, who's the deflate gate guy?
What's his name?
brendan schaub
Tom Brady?
joe rogan
Tom Brady.
Like, he's a fucking cheater.
He's a cheater.
Nobody gives a fuck in MMA. They don't give a fuck.
But they want to know, because we're all suspicious.
Like, why does Overeem look so much different?
Why?
Say it!
But even, forget it or not, he's fucking awesome.
Dude, I was so impressed with Overeem on Saturday night.
That was a tough goddamn fight.
And did you see the thing where he's doing the Wim Hof method?
He got in 40 degree water for 30 minutes, and he's breathing.
He's got Wim Hof coaching him.
brendan schaub
Jesus, I didn't see that.
joe rogan
Wim Hof is from Holland.
brendan schaub
Oh fuck, that's right.
joe rogan
That's your boy.
And they got together and he's like teaching them these methods to optimize his body and I'll tell you what man, just talking to Wim Hof makes you feel like you can go run around naked in the snow.
brendan schaub
I listen to that shit.
I start holding my breath.
joe rogan
He's a motherfucker.
brendan schaub
What techniques do you use?
joe rogan
I use the breathing technique before I go on stage.
unidentified
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah.
I do it for about 10 minutes before I go on stage.
I get high as fuck.
unidentified
It's crazy.
joe rogan
You get like oxygen high.
No, you take a gigantic breath and you only let out like half of it.
And then you flood it up again.
You take the biggest breath you can.
You only let out a little bit of it.
And you keep doing that.
You keep doing that for minutes.
I do it for two minutes at a time.
Just before you go on stage?
Yeah, like five minutes before or so.
Like right before.
eddie bravo
It's so easy and yet I'm so lazy.
It's the easiest shit ever.
It's not like special weird Hickson breathing.
It's just gigantic.
Emantic breaths.
brendan schaub
That's it.
Can you do the easiest shit for three minutes and still I don't do it?
joe rogan
I do it if I start feeling sick, too.
If I feel run down or something like that, I'll do it for a few minutes.
I'll just sit down, do it for like two minutes.
You know what?
I really started doing it seriously, too.
I started doing it after you and I talked about it on the phone.
When you go, have you been doing that Wim Hof method?
I go, nah.
And you said the same thing.
We're so lazy.
brendan schaub
It's so easy.
joe rogan
Nobody does it.
I said, yeah, you know what?
I'm going to start doing it before shows.
I'll just do it before shows.
Oh my god, I love it.
brendan schaub
Dude, I had a dude off Abbott Kennedy, big, big dude, bald.
He goes, bro, listen to Rogan's podcast with, what's the dude's name?
joe rogan
Wim Hof.
brendan schaub
Wim Hof.
He goes, hey man, what are you doing tomorrow morning?
I'm like, you know, I got shit to do, man.
He goes, well every morning at 4.30 we meet on the beach and we do these breathing techniques.
unidentified
Whoa.
brendan schaub
Yeah, cool, see you there, man.
joe rogan
Good luck at 4.30 a.m.
unidentified
Yeah.
I was like, huh?
joe rogan
Fuck no.
brendan schaub
Oh, can you schedule me for never?
Yeah, I'm not coming, man.
joe rogan
Why don't you get in the water, pussy?
brendan schaub
Yeah, I think they do.
I think they do.
Yeah, they do that breathing shit.
joe rogan
That water's so cold.
That water in the Pacific in the winter is so cold.
brendan schaub
It feels fucking refreshing.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
It's good.
I don't like water in my eyes, though.
Does salt water fuck with your eyes hardcore?
brendan schaub
No, yoga does.
joe rogan
That's interesting.
It's probably hair care products.
Do you have hair care products in it?
brendan schaub
No, I don't.
I do that on purpose.
joe rogan
You know when I used to fuck with me hard, dude?
When I used to do Fear Factor, I used to wear sunscreen on.
So I'd have sunscreen on my head, and then I would go on stage that night, and the sunscreen would drip, because I would sweat on stage, and sunscreen would drip in your eyes, and it's fucking fire.
It's awful.
That shit burns.
It's really bad for your eyes, too.
You can actually fuck with your vision.
It's super bad for your eyes.
brendan schaub
I feel like I sweat so much during yoga, all the sweat gets in my eyes, so for like the next day, I'm like blinking trying to get it out.
I don't know if that's normal.
joe rogan
No, I definitely get sweat in my eyes, but sweat is like so much better than sweat with sunscreen.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it's gonna burn.
joe rogan
Yeah, man, I think that whole getting in the ocean thing is probably something people have been doing forever to refresh their body.
I think it's instinctive.
You know how they do those ice plunges, those polar bear people?
unidentified
Yeah, my aunt does it.
brendan schaub
She's part of the polar bear club.
My aunt does that shit.
Polarberry Club in San Francisco, son.
joe rogan
You know how it feels when you get out of that cryo tank.
You feel fucking amazing, man.
You feel amazing.
brendan schaub
Now mix that with the ocean.
There's some energy in the ocean.
Then it's cold.
joe rogan
I love it, man.
The ocean's alive.
Did you see that video?
In San Francisco Bay, right next to the dock, a shark murks a seal.
brendan schaub
Just murks it.
joe rogan
Just leaves this gigantic puddle.
I mean, it's like a movie scene.
The shark comes out of the water with the seal.
And it's a big-ass shark.
unidentified
It's on YouTube?
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
brendan schaub
Jamie.
joe rogan
Jamie, play this thing.
Yeah, it's like a 12-foot shark, right?
unidentified
It's huge.
joe rogan
Watch this.
brendan schaub
Damn, he had a right on cue.
joe rogan
Yeah, watch this.
This is fucking amazing.
Look at this.
Boom, bitch!
I mean, come on, son.
Look at all that blood.
brendan schaub
But he gets away!
Oh, yeah.
The little seal's like, not today, motherfucker.
joe rogan
Well, he's dead.
He's bleeding like crazy.
brendan schaub
Oh, no, he's in trouble.
joe rogan
The shark probably just bit a giant chunk out of him.
See, he's on the top.
He's dead.
Look at all the blood.
brendan schaub
Nah, dog, he gets away.
joe rogan
I understand, but look at all that blood.
I mean, he's not going anywhere.
He's kind of moving away a little, but he's not going anywhere.
brendan schaub
I appreciate the effort.
joe rogan
Good lord, look at that puddle.
brendan schaub
I agree.
Look at all these fucks running over from the clam chowder.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, man.
brendan schaub
I would be, I'd be like, oh, shit, that's all I want to see in life.
unidentified
Fuck.
brendan schaub
I'd love to see something like that.
joe rogan
So crazy that it's right there.
And that's just, it opens your eyes as to what that's really like.
Because if we were just outside of the woods, right, and you would sit in your house, look, he hits him again, boom.
Look at this.
brendan schaub
Now he's dead.
Okay, now he's dead.
joe rogan
He's been dead.
I think that thing's just wiggling.
brendan schaub
Well, he's kind of doing the damn thing, thinking he's going to get away with one fin.
joe rogan
I wonder what is happening.
Maybe he, like, lets it go?
Oh my god, look at this!
We're watching this, folks, and this is, like, maybe 30 feet away from people.
brendan schaub
It looks like Jaws.
He's getting away though, but then he gets caught up.
joe rogan
I don't know what's happening there.
I just see some motion in the water.
brendan schaub
He's making an effort.
joe rogan
Do you think he is?
unidentified
100%.
joe rogan
Do you think there's more than one seal?
It just doesn't seem like that thing could bleed that much.
brendan schaub
But look, he's up here now.
You know what?
There might be a bunch of seals, Joe.
joe rogan
He must be just jacking seals.
Oh, God, look at that.
That's insane.
brendan schaub
Never gets old.
It never gets old for me.
joe rogan
See, that seal looks so little.
Do that again, Jamie.
Like, watch.
He's got it in his mouth when he flies out of the water.
I think that...
eddie bravo
You know, there's way better footage than that.
brendan schaub
It's just in South Africa.
unidentified
Well, that's in San Francisco.
eddie bravo
I know that's San Francisco.
Yes, yes.
brendan schaub
See, your ball's deep in clam chowder.
Shark attack.
eddie bravo
Yeah.
joe rogan
What I'm saying is, like, if we were...
unidentified
Yeah, it makes it better.
joe rogan
Like, here, watch this.
Watch this one more time.
Watch this, the up-close thing.
unidentified
Boom!
brendan schaub
Look how little it is.
joe rogan
See how little it is?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
And look at all that blood.
brendan schaub
He looks like a puppy, and there's blood everywhere.
joe rogan
So that thing's dead.
I think there's another one.
eddie bravo
Or maybe it looks like a puppy because of the...
brendan schaub
Maybe we just can't tell because of the...
joe rogan
No, it's too...
It's so little.
Look how little...
We'll go one more time.
It's so little in his mouth.
Like, watch when it comes out of the water.
It's got it in his mouth.
See that?
Look at that.
brendan schaub
That's little.
joe rogan
That thing's dead as fuck.
Look at all that blood afterwards.
brendan schaub
God, I can't get enough of it.
joe rogan
I think that there's probably a gang of them in there, and he's just swimming around jacking them.
brendan schaub
Just fucking full-on buffet.
eddie bravo
I bet they just eat.
joe rogan
I don't think they've stopped getting hungry.
eddie bravo
They're probably just eating shit and keep eating.
Is there any ultimate footage you could throw up from South Africa?
joe rogan
Oh yeah, there's a bunch of them.
unidentified
Like the real shit.
brendan schaub
I'm sure we could find some.
They're completely flying out of the giant ones.
joe rogan
This is 30 feet away from 100 people just sitting there watching.
brendan schaub
It's Fisherman's Wharf.
unidentified
You're chilling, and this fucking Great White's next to you.
joe rogan
But like I was saying, if you looked in your backyard, and your backyard was right there, and you watched some crazy crocodile tearing apart a zebra, right in your backyard, you'd be like, what the fuck?
I'm not going out there.
brendan schaub
Absolutely not.
joe rogan
But people are like, let's go in the ocean.
Let's go swimming around.
unidentified
Hey!
joe rogan
You know what?
I love man.
brendan schaub
I love surfing.
joe rogan
I love surfing because it makes the...
brendan schaub
This guy.
joe rogan
...where I'm standing on look a lot like seals, which is what sharks eat.
I like to get my flippers in.
My arms look like flippers when I'm lying on a surfboard.
It makes it even more exciting.
I wear all black.
I like to wear a wetsuit because it looks like a seal.
And then I get in there and I look in.
unidentified
I hope that Mother Nature looks out for me, man.
eddie bravo
Yeah, you'd think they'd make the wetsuits white or something.
joe rogan
Look at that!
Oh my God!
Jesus Christ.
eddie bravo
That is a crazy animal, son.
joe rogan
Scary fucking animal.
brendan schaub
There's nothing scarier than that shit.
eddie bravo
Nothing.
Look at that.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
eddie bravo
And it's really easy to get those shots.
brendan schaub
They're just, I mean, they're everywhere in South Africa.
joe rogan
Well, what they're doing is they're dragging a fake seal.
brendan schaub
They're honeydicking the sharks.
unidentified
See that?
That's a fake seal that they pull in water.
brendan schaub
The shark's like, mother fucker.
joe rogan
They're coming up in the water.
unidentified
Whoa.
brendan schaub
Good lord.
I want to do something like that, man.
joe rogan
Fuck South Africa's ocean.
Fuck that ocean.
unidentified
Can you imagine?
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
eddie bravo
How quickly you would die?
brendan schaub
He died.
Is that why they're showing me he died?
unidentified
I don't know.
joe rogan
He's an idiot.
brendan schaub
Dude, it'd be a good way to go.
It'd be a dope way to go.
Are you kidding me?
joe rogan
It'd be a terrible way to go.
brendan schaub
Oh, bro, how do I go like this?
joe rogan
Look at that fucking thing!
eddie bravo
Can you imagine you're like 85 and they take you out there in a little boat?
I love it!
You're on a little boat.
joe rogan
When did they first realize that they jumped out of the water?
I want to say that that wasn't that long ago.
Like, only a couple decades ago.
I think there was just rumors that sharks jumped out of the water.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it just hit Shark Week, like, two years ago.
We're like, holy fuck, they can fly!
joe rogan
I don't think they really necessarily...
Wouldn't it be crazy?
How about this?
Wouldn't it be crazy if they just started doing it recently?
Like, you know how we always like to think of human evolution?
And we think of human evolution as being like something that is like completely and totally unique.
Like, we got really smart, we figured out cable and the internet, and no other animals are ever going to figure that out.
But what they're starting to say now about chimpanzees, and there's a theory about this, that these scientists were debating whether or not chimpanzees are beginning to enter into the Stone Age.
Meaning whether or not chimpanzees are starting to experiment with tools to the point where it could be thought of as a natural trait, and whether or not they're going to start teaching each other.
I mean, we know that human beings, at one point in time, used to be some sort of an ancient primate, and we evolved, and we developed, and we grew, and we became what we are today, right?
We know we weren't this way four million years ago.
We became this over time.
Why wouldn't we assume that other animals are doing the same thing?
And if they are doing the same thing, we're seeing that right now with chimps.
Imagine if we're seeing that shit with sharks, too.
Imagine if they go, you know what looks cool as fuck, dude?
When you jack a seal and fly out of the ocean.
Just to let those cunts know.
Look at me, bitch!
Come surf, dude!
Motherfucker!
unidentified
Dude!
joe rogan
Think about what people do to show off.
Those flips that those BMX bikers do, they couldn't do that 10 years ago or 20 years ago.
They didn't do it.
Nobody did it.
All of a sudden, they do it.
Well, these fucking sharks are starting to jump out of the water.
What if it was 10 years ago, they just didn't do it?
What if one shark did it, and the other sharks were like, oh, and that shark got a lot of shark pussy, and the other sharks were like, I've got to start doing that, too.
brendan schaub
It's called peacocking, son.
You have smoked yourself, retarded.
unidentified
You smoked yourself for time.
brendan schaub
It wouldn't be the first time, sir.
eddie bravo
Did you see that video of the chimpanzee?
unidentified
Is there a conspiracy theory?
eddie bravo
There's a video that I just saw last week on Facebook.
It had like a gazillion views, but there's a monkey sitting in front of a screen with all these squares, and a sequence of numbers, one through ten, pops up in the squares, and you see it all mixed up just for a flash, and the chimp goes, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
I couldn't do it.
Now, I don't know if it's a hoax video.
unidentified
I couldn't do it.
eddie bravo
I was trying to do it, but I couldn't remember, I couldn't put them in order, but the monkeys, apparently, unless it's a hoax video, it could be, says chimps have a better short-term memory than humans, or it's just me, because I couldn't do it.
joe rogan
They figured out how to do it to get food, and they teach them these sequences over a long period of time.
They teach them how to do it, and then they know they're going to get food, but they've been doing it for a while.
brendan schaub
And then they give him a treat.
Dude, you remember when that dumb bitch had a pet chimpanzee?
joe rogan
Yeah, but look at the code.
It's just one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
See, it's not like some super secret code.
Like, watch the beginning.
See, it's one, two, three.
Oh, well, here's what's going on, though.
They block out the numbers so you can't see what the numbers are.
brendan schaub
Exactly.
joe rogan
But look at it.
At first he does it, you see the numbers.
eddie bravo
Oh, then it's just blocks.
joe rogan
And then they do it again, and then they hide the numbers.
They show it to him briefly for a moment, and then they hide the numbers.
eddie bravo
Yeah, look at how fast he's...
unidentified
Look at this.
eddie bravo
I couldn't have done that.
joe rogan
I wouldn't have done it.
brendan schaub
You know what?
That's challenging.
eddie bravo
What the fuck?
brendan schaub
We better take these motherfuckers out.
eddie bravo
Humans can't do it.
joe rogan
Yeah, and it's in a different order.
unidentified
We better kill these guys.
joe rogan
It's a different order every time.
Look at them walking on a tightrope.
unidentified
Holy shit!
joe rogan
Watch them walk on the tightrope.
Watch this again.
This is what's bananas.
Watch them walk on this fucking telephone cord or whatever that is.
brendan schaub
Dude, that's spooky looking.
joe rogan
They're terrifying.
They're terrifying.
That Planet of the Apes shit, imagine if they got just smart enough to be like those things in Planet of the Apes.
brendan schaub
We gotta take him out before that happens.
joe rogan
Oh, we'd have to take him out.
brendan schaub
Bro, remember that lady who had the boyfriend chimpanzee?
joe rogan
Yeah, she gave it Xanax.
brendan schaub
He was chilling in a robe and shit, drinking wine, and then one day he said, nah, bitch, ripped her face off.
eddie bravo
Remember that?
joe rogan
No, not her face, her friend's face, because her friend was cock-blocking.
eddie bravo
Oh, that's right.
joe rogan
That's what it is.
I think that chimp was getting some pussy.
That's what I think's happening.
brendan schaub
She was 100% sucking his dick.
unidentified
She was banging him.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
What are you doing over there, Eddie Bravo, on the microphone?
eddie bravo
I got some chocolate with bacon in it here.
unidentified
Okay.
eddie bravo
Does that sound good?
joe rogan
Definitely not opening it on the mic.
eddie bravo
But I need a pair of scissors.
brendan schaub
Why don't you use your teeth, man?
eddie bravo
I tried to, dude.
joe rogan
Chuck it over here.
unidentified
I'll get it for you.
eddie bravo
This is a steel paper.
brendan schaub
So with that lady, see, I thought it was her that got fucked up.
Oh, shit.
Powerful teeth by Joe Rogan.
joe rogan
Let's just bite in there, man.
I'm good.
Let's just take that wrapper off, though, so it doesn't make everybody get angry at us on Twitter.
brendan schaub
Let me know how it is, Eddie.
joe rogan
So the friend was cock-blocking.
That's what it was.
brendan schaub
So the friend came on and was like, oh, what's up, champ in the rope?
joe rogan
That's cool.
I'm trying to get my dick sucked.
And he went crazy and he attacked her.
brendan schaub
Did he rip his face off?
joe rogan
He ripped her face off.
I wonder if she said, hey, you get out of here, if she got threatening to him or something like that.
I wonder if there was an exchange or if he said, all right, enough of this cock-blocking.
I'm just going to pull this bitch's eyes out.
brendan schaub
He had a robe on, bro.
joe rogan
I think he had a diaper.
brendan schaub
Robe and a diaper.
Do you see the picture of him in a robe?
She dressed him up and shit.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Can we see this?
unidentified
I want to see this.
joe rogan
Well, there's pictures of her, too, if you want to get rid of it.
brendan schaub
She got fucked.
Didn't he rip her face and titties off or something?
joe rogan
Tore her face apart.
Completely.
brendan schaub
And then the chick's on the phone, right?
She's crunched.
My fucking monkey just killed my friend.
joe rogan
He was 200 pounds.
He was huge.
He slept in her bed, I thought.
He slept in her bed.
She gave him Xanax, and she gave him red wine.
So even if he wasn't fucking her, which he probably was fucking her, he had a giant dick, a giant chimp dick, and giant chimp balls, and he's probably horny all the time.
So maybe she just jerked him off every now and again.
Who knows what the fuck happened?
But that chimp was her companion.
He loved her.
brendan schaub
That was her man.
joe rogan
Yeah, it was her man.
eddie bravo
It doesn't matter if that happened.
joe rogan
He wasn't fixed.
Think of a dude, a horny dude, and he's cuddling with his girl all the time, and he's never getting any pussy, and then a friend comes over right when he thinks he's about to get the pussy.
A friend comes over and like, you're sleeping with a monkey!
He's like, you fucking cunt!
brendan schaub
You gotta rip her face off.
joe rogan
Tears her apart.
Fucking bitch!
brendan schaub
Face off.
joe rogan
Oh my god, what a monster.
What a terrifying thing.
An intelligent, super powerful primate that rips your face apart.
brendan schaub
That sips wine and is fucking chilling.
joe rogan
And Xanax.
She was giving it Xanax.
Who knows what the fuck Xanax does to her?
eddie bravo
Imagine how hard he fucked her after the wine.
Monkeys probably have a lower tolerance than humans.
You probably have a drunken monkey sex.
joe rogan
I wonder if she gave him wine and Xanax at the same time.
brendan schaub
He's gonna rip that asshole up.
eddie bravo
You know what I mean?
No wonder she's living there.
brendan schaub
It's science.
eddie bravo
It's like, you ain't going fucking nowhere.
brendan schaub
You're staying here.
There he is.
joe rogan
There he is, man.
brendan schaub
Look at her face, son.
Oh my god.
unidentified
Look at her face.
eddie bravo
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
Like, if when you guys called me, he was like, yo man, I got this champ, come and see it.
No, I'm not fucking coming over.
joe rogan
He's terrifying.
He literally tore her face apart.
brendan schaub
That's him chilling in her room and shit.
Look at the family photo there in the yellow.
unidentified
I don't mean to laugh, but what the fuck?
joe rogan
What kind of crazy bitch is this?
Well, you know, people are allowed to have wild animals that they shouldn't be allowed to.
They just haven't changed the laws in certain places.
There's actually a documentary called The Elephant in the Living Room that's all about people that own wild animals, like dangerous wild animals.
And there's parts of the country where you could just, like Ohio, there was this guy that had a bunch of them.
He had tigers and lions and elephants and shit, and then he opened up the gates and shot himself in the head.
He was like, fuck this.
Open the gates, let the animals out, and then fucking iced himself.
And so the cops came, and the cops had to just start shooting these animals.
They had to find them and shoot them.
But they're all just wandering down the street.
They don't know where the fuck they're going.
They've been in these fenced cages their whole life.
brendan schaub
That's horrible.
joe rogan
Oh, it's so crazy.
brendan schaub
Dude, how about the kid who his parents, or I think it was his mom, owned like a crazy snake pet shop, and he committed suicide by letting a cobra bite him.
The cobra bit him eight times.
That's how he committed suicide.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Some gnarly shit, man.
Again, good way to go.
joe rogan
I don't know about all that, dude.
brendan schaub
Well, I'm saying gangster way to go.
joe rogan
Gangster, yeah.
It's insanely painful, I think.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that can't be good.
eddie bravo
Speaking of suicide, dude, seriously, you guys got to watch Soaked in Bleach.
brendan schaub
Dude, I've seen it.
What is it?
Oh, my God.
It's the brand new Kurt Cobain documentary about Courtney Love It.
Courtney Love Did It?
eddie bravo
She did it, dude.
brendan schaub
He's got tapes.
joe rogan
She did it.
What do you mean?
eddie bravo
Dude.
unidentified
Watch this.
joe rogan
She killed him?
brendan schaub
Yes, 100%.
eddie bravo
Dude, in this dark...
Dude, it's...
joe rogan
If you say, dude, one more time, the internet is going to explode.
unidentified
They're going to freak out on you.
brendan schaub
They're going to rip your face off like a chimpanzee.
eddie bravo
It's so mind-boggling that history is going to be rewritten on how a Jimi Hendrix-type rock star got killed.
brendan schaub
It's been out for a while, though.
eddie bravo
Now they've got to change.
No, this year.
It came out this year.
2015, dude.
joe rogan
I don't think so, brother.
That's one of those stories that is so crazy that when you start telling people, you have to dude them up just to get them prepared for it.
unidentified
Dude!
joe rogan
Right?
You gotta prepare them.
You gotta dude.
How bad is it?
unidentified
Dude.
joe rogan
Dude.
brendan schaub
I agree.
unidentified
Dude.
joe rogan
You almost like, with all your dudes, I get more and more prepared for craziness.
eddie bravo
Is it 2015?
brendan schaub
But what they do is they have the private investigator that Courtney hired to make her look good, but she just went through the yellow pages and hired a motherfucker.
She hired the detective of all detectives.
eddie bravo
And he's the guy who speaks on this.
Kurt Cobain had her sign a prenup.
This is all real shit when you watch this.
He was divorcing her and writing her out of the will.
He was in the process of writing her out of the will, and since she signed a prenup, she wasn't going to get that much.
And he she was totally fucked up on her and he was trying to clean his shit up according to this documentary and then If she had something, it looks, it appears that she had something to do with his murder.
It appears based on that documentary.
It fucking, dude, they got, oh dude, here we go again.
brendan schaub
Dude.
eddie bravo
Dude.
brendan schaub
When he shot himself.
eddie bravo
Yes, when he shot himself.
brendan schaub
Okay.
joe rogan
Are they saying he didn't shoot himself?
eddie bravo
No, no.
brendan schaub
They're saying he did, but they're saying he didn't do it because he had too much heroin in his body.
How much heroin they found in his blood system, he couldn't operate a gun.
eddie bravo
He had enough heroin in his body to cause 10 overdoses on people.
It was just like, it was crazy.
joe rogan
Let me ask you this.
Is it possible his tolerance was so high that he could just do it?
eddie bravo
Well, when you listen to all the shit that's private, she hired a private investigator to find this missing, we don't know where he's at.
He bought a shotgun and he's suicidal.
She was just putting it all out there.
And from day one, this private investigator started taping everything and goes, this girl's full of shit.
brendan schaub
He was calling like TMZ and leaking all this stuff.
joe rogan
There was no TMZ then.
brendan schaub
Well, she was calling like the...
eddie bravo
MTV. Whatever.
Courtney was calling MTV saying he's suicidal.
He bought a shotgun.
brendan schaub
Because the detective was like, how the fuck is this getting out?
And then he traced it back.
He's like, this bitch is releasing it.
And then with the evidence, the way he shot himself, according to how he would do it, that they found him, the way the shotgun shell fell is all wrong.
It should have fell the other way.
eddie bravo
All the taped conversations.
He taped everything.
Mad conversations.
Him and her lawyer.
Him and her.
And this is the shit she would say.
She'd be all fucked up on heroin.
In her voice would say, see, you know, they're supposed to be looking for Kurt, but she knows where he's at.
She's calling the rehab 13 times a day and he won't take her calls.
She's freaking out.
She's going to get written out of the will.
She needs his ass dead.
That's the way it looks.
She says shit like this to the private investigator on tape.
She'll say, you know, my album's coming out and I started this rumor that I had an OD. She's saying this.
But where should I go with this?
Should I say it was an OD or should I say no, it wasn't an OD. That was twisted.
It was actually me being suicidal because I can't find Kurt.
What do you think?
And the private investigator's going, I think that's a really, really bad idea.
She goes, but it's...
It's publicity.
It's for my album.
brendan schaub
It's one of the best documentaries I've ever seen.
unidentified
She's a piece of shit, dude.
brendan schaub
It's amazing.
unidentified
She's a piece of...
eddie bravo
It's all on tape.
brendan schaub
How about their own daughter didn't invite her to her wedding?
joe rogan
She got married and didn't...
Look at them.
brendan schaub
The daughter got married and didn't invite her.
unidentified
They do a little bit of a...
jamie vernon
Not mockumentary, but there's some reenacted scenes.
brendan schaub
Yeah, they do that.
No, they do.
eddie bravo
It's everything.
I agree.
brendan schaub
That's all nasty.
joe rogan
I hate those.
brendan schaub
No, but it's not.
unidentified
It's a doc, dude.
eddie bravo
Make no mistake about it.
unidentified
We're selling this!
brendan schaub
Dude, it's a documentary with evidence.
eddie bravo
Every forensics expert that they have on that?
joe rogan
No, I'm not questioning the actual evidence.
I just fucking hate reenactments.
They drive me nuts.
unidentified
Me too.
It's bad.
brendan schaub
And he doesn't even look like Kurt Cobain.
unidentified
I'm like, damn it.
joe rogan
You know what I love?
When they have those fucking TV shows, like 48 Hours or something like that, and they have a reenactment, and then the reenactment dude doesn't look nothing like that.
brendan schaub
Come on.
joe rogan
They like show up with the guns.
eddie bravo
They did a pretty good job though with like the Courtney and they did a good job.
joe rogan
Oh, they had a fake Kurt Cobain.
Yeah, it's tough.
unidentified
No!
brendan schaub
You fucked this, Jamie.
unidentified
No!
joe rogan
No, that's not in the movie!
Yeah, it is.
brendan schaub
No!
eddie bravo
Dude, you don't understand.
It's an actual documentary with little scenes.
unidentified
No!
eddie bravo
It's not the whole thing like that.
joe rogan
But why didn't they just use actual photos of Kurt Cobain instead of that?
unidentified
No, they did.
eddie bravo
They used all that.
brendan schaub
Courtney wouldn't release anything to him.
Courtney tried stopping this documentary from coming out.
I don't know if you know that.
eddie bravo
It's her voice scheming and lying to this private investigator.
She knows where he's at.
She's pretending that he's missing.
She keeps saying that he's suicidal.
He bought a shotgun.
Jesus Christ.
And then the cops, like the former police chief of Seattle where all this happened, he's on the documentary saying, they've got to reopen this thing.
brendan schaub
They want to reopen the case.
eddie bravo
All the forensics.
All of them.
This is true.
joe rogan
Even Sober Jamie.
I have to turn to Sober Jamie.
unidentified
Yeah.
jamie vernon
Let's talk to a really good detective.
I think he's from LA, or he's been in a lot of major cases, and he's essentially the head.
He wrote the book on how to look at a murder investigation, and he's saying, look at this case again.
unidentified
And why they don't, there's a little corruption in the Seattle Police Department, too.
brendan schaub
She was paying a lot of people, man.
They did it all wrong.
He said usually for them to say it was a suicide, there's like all the stuff that goes into it.
They literally like, nope, suicide.
Even the detective was like, what the fuck?
That quick?
No one's going to do any research?
joe rogan
Well, how do you go about bribing cops?
brendan schaub
Dollar bill, son.
joe rogan
But can you just do that?
Like, a high-profile case like that, where Kurt Cobain commits suicide, who the fuck would she talk to to hook up some sort of bribery?
How do you do something like that?
eddie bravo
She was a gazillionaire, dude.
joe rogan
Hold on, hold on.
unidentified
It was a lot of...
Dumbness.
jamie vernon
Just a lot of bad procedure and a lot of circumstantial dumb things that happened.
joe rogan
Sort of like the JonBenet Ramsey case where they just fucked up the murder case.
brendan schaub
Or the OJ thing.
Like they fucked up a bunch of stuff and evidence and then finally like, ah, it's a suicide.
eddie bravo
Well, the guy, the head detective, the guy that was in charge of everything, he soon got fired or quit, forced to quit for some other scandals.
She was known for paying people off.
joe rogan
He got in trouble for other shit as well.
eddie bravo
The guy in charge, the guy who didn't want to look into anything.
There was a private investigator.
The guy who put the shit together, he went to the lead detective.
He was a former cop, this private investigator.
He knows proper procedure.
He goes up to the guy and says, Hey, listen, I was hired by Courtney Love.
I've been on this case for the last month.
You need to talk to me.
And I got a lot of shit.
And the guy didn't want to talk to him.
joe rogan
Wow.
eddie bravo
You wouldn't talk to him.
That's true.
I like your enthusiasm.
Dude, you're scaring me.
joe rogan
I don't want to watch that.
eddie bravo
Oh, dude.
brendan schaub
I'm scared.
joe rogan
What if I run into her somewhere?
brendan schaub
We're going to have to kill her.
eddie bravo
Dude, I think the world is going to turn on her, dude.
brendan schaub
I know.
unidentified
Let's get her a chip.
eddie bravo
The world is going to turn on her, dude.
brendan schaub
Let's get her a chip.
eddie bravo
The world is going to turn on her.
joe rogan
Thank God this is a comedy podcast.
brendan schaub
Oh, I know, right?
joe rogan
I don't think the world is because we're just finding out about it.
It's been out for a while.
When did it come out?
brendan schaub
I saw it on a laptop a while ago.
joe rogan
But that's now.
It's almost over.
2015 is becoming 2016. No, they just made it available on Netflix.
eddie bravo
We're talking about it now.
brendan schaub
They just made it available on Netflix.
jamie vernon
I heard about it on the OPE channel earlier this year.
unidentified
They interviewed the director.
joe rogan
How long ago was this?
unidentified
The summer.
joe rogan
See, that's what I'm worried about.
jamie vernon
But it just hit Netflix just now.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it just hit Netflix.
joe rogan
Well, that might just be it.
Netflix is the motherfucker of motherfuckers when it comes to spreading shit.
eddie bravo
And then JRE? I mean, we're talking about it right now.
brendan schaub
Go check it out.
unidentified
That's right.
brendan schaub
We're talking about it on the JRE. I said we send a chimp to our house.
joe rogan
A horny chip.
brendan schaub
Just a chip in a robe.
joe rogan
With a fucking jug of wine.
eddie bravo
And a bottle of pills.
brendan schaub
What's up, bitch?
joe rogan
And a bottle of Viagra.
brendan schaub
And a Nirvana shirt.
joe rogan
And a cold blue steel chip dick.
Oh my god.
With the one with the baby in the water.
That shirt.
brendan schaub
Fucking epic.
joe rogan
Man, I can't believe you really think that shit.
You know what's crazy to me?
I mean, I've done my best, and we've all fucked up in life, but I've done my best to try to avoid total nightmare-type relationships like that.
brendan schaub
Oh, for sure.
joe rogan
That seems like not just a nightmare relationship, but a nightmare, if that is true, with a completely insane person who's willing to not just fake things for publicity, but possibly, you know, they're insinuating, allegedly killing him, right?
brendan schaub
There's a lot of jealousy there, too.
joe rogan
But look what a brilliant fucking musician he was.
unidentified
Oh, amazing.
joe rogan
Amazing.
It just kills you the idea that some unbelievably brilliant guy gets shacked up with some knucklehead.
Like, that's what drove everybody crazy about Yoko Ono and John Lennon.
Like, how?
How?
How was that the way?
I don't know if that was the Wedge and the Beatles.
We weren't there.
I'm just guessing, but that's what everybody says.
brendan schaub
Is there any way you could pick a hotter girl?
unidentified
Eddie didn't even talk about the suicide note.
eddie bravo
Oh, the suicide note!
Check this out!
brendan schaub
Preach, Eddie!
eddie bravo
The suicide note that was supposedly found...
joe rogan
How dare you, Jamie.
eddie bravo
The first half of it, it wasn't even about his music and all this.
It didn't sound like a suicide note.
Then at the end, she pieced it together, practiced his signature in her backpack.
They found her practicing.
Her practicing.
She wrote that shit.
joe rogan
Oh my god, so a lot of it was other stuff and then she wrote at the bottom.
eddie bravo
I love you, I love you, I love you.
He was divorcing her and writing her out of the will.
brendan schaub
Yes.
eddie bravo
He was divorcing her and that's a fact.
unidentified
Correct.
jamie vernon
Talking about leaving Nirvana too, supposedly.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Whoa, so she washed his handwriting on the paper and wrote something at the bottom of a paper that he had written on.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it doesn't even match up, they're saying.
Forensic scientists say it doesn't even match up.
eddie bravo
She wanted to make it seem like it was something that he really wrote.
So she was trying to blend it all in together.
joe rogan
Oh my god, that is fucking terrifying.
brendan schaub
Some dark shit, man.
joe rogan
Is this possible?
eddie bravo
I mean, there's a reason Dave Grohl Man, I'm 100% convinced she was involved in it somehow.
brendan schaub
She set it up.
She set it up.
unidentified
Do you think this is going to be like that movie The Jinx?
joe rogan
How The Jinx took down that murderer dude, that TV show?
unidentified
Yes.
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
You think so?
eddie bravo
Man.
joe rogan
How crazy would it be in our lifetime if all of a sudden Courtney Love winds up getting arrested and convicted for Kurt Cobain's murder and then you start thinking about all the guys that publicly dated her?
Like Ed Norton?
Ed Norton.
unidentified
Oh, that's right.
joe rogan
That fucking guy was dating her after the suicide.
Alleged suicide.
brendan schaub
A lot of rock stars.
eddie bravo
Billy Corgan, Twiggy Ramirez.
joe rogan
Didn't Billy Corgan have a giant falling out with her?
He helped her write that one brilliant album.
eddie bravo
Well, her first album that Kurt wrote, that's a Nirvana album.
joe rogan
Which one is that?
What song was in it?
eddie bravo
Doll parts.
joe rogan
Oh, that's a great one.
eddie bravo
That was a great album.
unidentified
That was so good.
eddie bravo
And people on the inside know that Kurt put that shit together for her.
joe rogan
Man, it seems like it because it's brilliant.
eddie bravo
So she didn't want to do it.
brendan schaub
He was brilliant.
eddie bravo
He dies.
That album blows up.
It was all perfect timing.
She becomes this huge star.
Doesn't want to put out...
Doesn't want to put out another album and she's banging Billy Corgan.
This is according to Billy Corgan on Howard Stern.
He said that he had to convince her to make another album.
She was afraid, of course, because she knew it wasn't going to live up to that first album.
So Billy...
Put that album together and wrote most of it.
And he convinced her to do it and help her put it all together.
He's a brilliant songwriter.
brendan schaub
Dave Grohl doesn't even fuck with her.
Exactly.
There was an HBO Kurt Cobain documentary, which is brilliant.
The way it was done was amazing.
But he wouldn't even take...
He wanted nothing to do with it.
This one or that one.
He wanted nothing to do with it.
joe rogan
This is scary.
eddie bravo
It is scary shit.
brendan schaub
Scary shit.
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's scary that someone could become a murderer and just integrate right back into pop culture.
eddie bravo
She got away with it for so long.
brendan schaub
She got away with it for so long.
joe rogan
But this isn't the first documentary.
I remember I watched one a few years back where there was another guy that was accusing her of murdering.
eddie bravo
Yeah, and in that documentary was all conspiracy theory status back then.
This private investigator, he plays a little part in it, but he didn't release any of the tapes.
He had all the tapes.
He has hours and hours of their conversations with her just bullshitting and lying the whole time.
brendan schaub
He catches her in so many lies.
eddie bravo
This is so scary.
joe rogan
I'm getting nervous.
I get nervous when I talk about this.
Imagine someone alive that does that and fills him up with heroin and writes his love.
brendan schaub
Can't do it twice, though.
joe rogan
Suicide, no.
Blows his brains out.
Whatever the fuck.
brendan schaub
She did it once.
I agree.
joe rogan
If she really did do it once, and that happened, and what year was that happening?
unidentified
What year was that?
eddie bravo
Like, 94, 93. But check this out.
Their nanny was a guy that used to fuck her.
brendan schaub
Preach.
eddie bravo
Come on.
Come on!
brendan schaub
Yes!
It's true.
unidentified
When they were married or before they were married?
joe rogan
No, while they were married.
eddie bravo
While they were married.
unidentified
Whoa, the darkness continues and rolls into the fog.
brendan schaub
Kurt Cobain, one of the greats.
eddie bravo
Dude, when you hear her voice conniving, she's a master at handling the press.
brendan schaub
Everything back then was coming from MTV, like all the news, and it was all coming from her directly.
eddie bravo
She was all over that shit.
So she was putting out all this.
Everybody that knows him, everybody that knew him really well said he was not suicidal.
brendan schaub
His family, they interview his family and friends, they're like, Kurt was 100% not suicidal.
He put on this whole grunge thing.
He was not suicidal.
Jesus Christ, this is fucking terrifying.
They said a lot of times he killed himself because he had that stomach issue.
That was gone.
Yeah, exactly.
That was cured.
joe rogan
What stomach issue?
eddie bravo
He had a stomach problem.
brendan schaub
Intestine issue.
eddie bravo
He would say, man.
brendan schaub
Intestine?
Sorry, intestine.
eddie bravo
There was a statement he made that said that it made him want to kill himself, the pain.
joe rogan
People say shit like that.
Exactly.
brendan schaub
She ran with it.
She would run with that stuff.
But you're saying he was cured at that time.
eddie bravo
Yeah, it was all coming from her.
brendan schaub
You gotta watch it.
joe rogan
I can't.
brendan schaub
I'm scared.
joe rogan
I'm terrified.
brendan schaub
Spoiler alert, he dies at the end.
unidentified
What?
Yes.
joe rogan
Yeah, man.
brendan schaub
She did it, though.
joe rogan
Did you ever see the photos they released on the internet?
Those autopsy photos?
brendan schaub
I get into that.
eddie bravo
It's almost like, what if you found out that Jimi Hendrix was murdered by the CIA or something?
You know what I mean?
joe rogan
There's a Jimi Hendrix book.
Jimi Hendrix's former bodyguard is a guy who says that Jimi Hendrix was murdered by his former manager because he was leaving his manager.
And that same manager killed Jimi Hendrix's girlfriend.
God, what?
Jimi Hendrix's girlfriend.
unidentified
Holy shit!
joe rogan
A lot of people don't know.
After Jimi Hendrix died, his girlfriend was thrown off a roof in Soho.
Yeah, they said she committed suicide, but this guy says they threw her off a roof because she knows that they killed Jimmy because Jimmy was leaving his manager.
This is one thing the manager did do, okay?
The manager had Jimmy kidnapped, had Jimmy kidnapped and then rescued him to show him that Jimmy needed him.
So the manager had Jimi Hendrix fucking kidnapped.
brendan schaub
Is this fact or a conspiracy theory?
unidentified
I don't know.
joe rogan
I wasn't there, obviously.
But this is according to this guy, and apparently the kidnap story has been said before.
brendan schaub
Such a shame, man.
These brilliant, brilliant artists.
joe rogan
Well, that happens, though.
These manager characters, especially in the old days of show business, I mean, think about what we were talking about in the 60s.
The 60s is just 20 years removed from the fucking 40s.
brendan schaub
Sure.
joe rogan
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, think about the 40s.
The 40s are just 20 years removed.
We can go back and back until we get the Gangs of New York, right?
The crazy fucking movie with...
brendan schaub
Brilliant.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Daniel Day-Lewis.
Yeah.
Killing each other with that.
We're talking about a different era of humanity.
brendan schaub
It was easy to kill people back then.
joe rogan
In the 1960s, the people that were running show business, there was a lot of gangsters in the music business, like legitimate gangsters that would get involved in the career of Frank Sinatra, that would get involved in the career of a lot of different artists.
It was very, very common, because they could make a lot of money, and they liked being big shots.
And they liked saying, hey, I'm Jimi Hendrix's manager.
Let me in the door, please.
And these fucking people infiltrated.
Like that fucking guy that was in, the producer, that was in with the Beatles.
The guy who shot the chick in the mouth.
The guy who wore the crazy wigs.
What the fuck is his name?
The wall of sound guy.
The producer.
What's that?
Phil Spector.
Yes, Phil Spector.
Here's a guy who used to always pull guns on people.
He was a producer for the fucking Beatles.
He had a very distinctive style of recording music.
They used to call it the wall of sound, right?
eddie bravo
That's probably the real reason they quit.
joe rogan
Well, this guy shot a fucking woman in the mouth in Hollywood a few years back.
Took her back to his place, put a gun in her mouth, and pulled the fucking trigger and blew her brains out.
unidentified
Jesus Christ, man.
joe rogan
Some hottie that he picked up at, like, what was it, like House of Blues or something?
Or Sky Bar or something like that?
But right across the street from the Comedy Store is where he met her.
Took her up to his mansion, blew her fucking brains out.
And they, you know, they tried him and convicted him, but this guy was probably doing that his whole career, because that was the rumor, was that he would strong-arm people with guns.
Like, I think that was, like, super common in the music business.
I think...
Violence and the threat of violence kept a lot of people in business.
I think what people allege that Suge Knight did, I think that's just a rap version of it.
I think people have been doing that forever.
It's crazy, man.
So what she's done, what she did, has probably been done before, if she did it.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
Well, you guys think she did it.
brendan schaub
100%.
eddie bravo
God, that's crazy.
You know, the John Lennon assassination conspiracy theory, you know, that the CIA had him killed.
There's a lot of shit on that.
brendan schaub
Did you see the guy who did it, though?
How crazy he is?
joe rogan
You can get someone who's crazy to do things for you.
Here's a perfect example.
The FBI arrested this guy in Dallas for making a fake bomb and trying to detonate it.
But the FBI gave him that bomb.
The whole story's hilarious.
They found some really fucking stupid dude.
They talked him into doing something he probably never would have done.
They literally sold him all the equipment to go and do this.
Or they gave him all the equipment.
They gave him a cell phone to activate.
brendan schaub
To do what?
joe rogan
Well, he was going to blow up some building.
brendan schaub
God damn it.
joe rogan
But here's the technique.
But here's the thing.
He never was going to.
It was never his idea.
They talked him into doing it.
They scheduled the whole thing.
They got him the equipment.
Then they arrested him!
Yeah, but they created a crime.
brendan schaub
Yeah, but you don't think with John Lennon, this homeboy's crazy.
You don't think he's going to sing like a canary when he's in prison?
eddie bravo
You've got to look into it.
joe rogan
Who knows?
eddie bravo
You've got to look into it, man.
joe rogan
Listen, here's the thing.
You don't get to sing if they don't let you talk.
When was the last time you saw an interview with the guy who killed John Lennon?
brendan schaub
Well, he's done interviews, though.
joe rogan
Has he done it since the murder?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
eddie bravo
Well, you've got to look into it.
joe rogan
It's just like the soaked in bleach.
eddie bravo
It's just as crazy as the soaked in bleach.
You know what I mean?
If you looked into it, if someone would tell you about it, you'd be like, oh, I don't know.
You don't think he was crazy?
joe rogan
Let me say this.
I don't think...
I don't have any...
I don't even have an opinion on the John Lennon thing.
I've never heard it before until Eddie brought it up.
I never...
I mean, I might have peripherally heard someone said.
See, I know no details, though.
None.
Zero zilch.
But that said...
If they wanted to kill someone, one of the best ways would be get some crazy person and infiltrate them even without their knowledge.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
You can provide them with a weapon, talk them into doing it, and there's a lot of fucking morons out there.
unidentified
I agree.
eddie bravo
Sirhan, sirhan, the guy who allegedly killed Robert F. Kennedy, he doesn't have any recollection of it happening.
What he says is, everyone says that I shot him, so I probably did.
Everyone said they saw me shoot him, but I don't remember anything.
joe rogan
Well, how about that scopolamine stuff, that Colombian devil's...
What do they call it?
Colombian devil's dust?
Dust?
eddie bravo
Devil's breath.
joe rogan
Yeah, devil's breath.
Thank you.
There's this shit that they can blow.
They literally can blow it in your nose.
They blow it on you.
If you breathe it in...
brendan schaub
You die?
joe rogan
You become a zombie.
You do what they tell you to do, and you have no memory of it.
Like, I'll blow it on you, and I'll say, Brennan Schaub, help me move my couch.
And then all of a sudden, you're fucking carrying the couch up the stairs like a zombie.
I'm not bullshitting, man.
That's real.
100%.
100% real.
You'll put the couch down.
Now, here's what's really crazy.
That same stuff that they use is the same shit they put in Dramamine.
And those little patches when you're getting seasick.
They give you like a little patch, and it's like a little tiny amount of this, I think it's called scopolamine, I think that's how you say it.
But it's the same active ingredient as those patches that they give you to keep you from fucking getting seasick.
brendan schaub
Jesus Christ, man!
Devil dust!
Well, there's some stuff!
I need to get my hands on it.
joe rogan
If they have a blow, they blow it in your face, and they think that that might have been where the legend of zombies came from.
And that's why zombies, like, it was always like a Haitian thing, they always would talk about zombies, Haitian, Colombia.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
I don't know if it's this area that had this plant, but they think that people have been using this on people for years.
And it wasn't until like really recently that they realized the effects of this stuff.
Like pharmacologists started to examine the effects of blowing this shit on people.
brendan schaub
Is there a short video on that?
unidentified
Oh yeah, yeah.
joe rogan
Vice has a whole documentary on it.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
They have a whole thing on it.
unidentified
Dude!
joe rogan
You'll trip your balls off.
brendan schaub
I think I did see it.
joe rogan
It's scary stuff.
But I thought it's illegal, but I didn't see I didn't see in the documentary I didn't see like a test like testing people or any kind of I don't remember it's quite a while ago where I saw it I've watched too many documentaries they all go in and out there's no room I have no room in my hard drive.
I gotta start deleting memories in my childhood.
brendan schaub
Oh, I'm filling my shit up.
I'm trying fast Got to hang out with you guys, filling it up.
joe rogan
Yeah, but the problem is, like, stuff goes in and out now.
It's like some stuff, like, MMA stuff seems to stick like glue.
unidentified
Yeah, I know.
joe rogan
And there's a few things about other things that stick like glue.
But then there's occasional documentaries that are really interesting that just, in and out.
unidentified
Got no room.
I agree.
brendan schaub
You know what's weird is when I was a kid I clicked football cards and I can remember almost to a T every player what college you played in.
It's useless information for whatever reason it stuck with me.
It's fucking weird man.
joe rogan
I remember weird shit.
We all do.
There's like stuff that doesn't make any sense.
Why do I know this?
unidentified
For sure.
joe rogan
Why do I remember this?
brendan schaub
Come on, man.
Let's go here.
joe rogan
Like the plot line of a Tom Selleck show.
You know, like Magnum P.I. I can remember whole plot lines.
brendan schaub
Really?
joe rogan
Why do I need that?
Why do I need that?
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
The fucking dude who flew the helicopter and he's helping him out and then there's the butler guy who lets him use the Ferrari and gets in trouble with it.
brendan schaub
Most of my vocabulary is from Ace Ventura or Adam Sandler.
How fucking weird is that?
joe rogan
That's hilarious.
brendan schaub
Weird.
My brain was like, yeah, let's download this.
He might need this later.
What part of Ace Ventura?
Like what?
I mean, I'll use all of it, man.
Like what?
Just a couple of them.
joe rogan
Alrighty then.
brendan schaub
Yeah, alrighty then.
You know when he does the thing where he's like, and he has a dream, and he's like, you bit me right here, and he goes, rah!
I do that all the time.
Literally all the time.
joe rogan
If I was you, I'd say for sure stop doing that.
brendan schaub
I know, man.
eddie bravo
I know.
joe rogan
100% you want to stop doing that.
unidentified
100%.
eddie bravo
I constantly quote.
Hollywood Shuffle, man.
brendan schaub
Have you ever seen that?
I have not.
eddie bravo
It's, you know, Keenan Ivory Wands and Robert Townsend, their first movie that they put together with credit cards and shit.
Super crazy low budget.
It's fucking hysterical.
brendan schaub
It's called Hollywood Shuffle.
joe rogan
You remember I'm Gonna Get You, Sucka?
eddie bravo
Yeah, that's when they started making money.
Because of Hollywood Shuffle, that kind of, that was an underground hit.
unidentified
Whatever.
joe rogan
That never happened to Robert Townsend, dude.
eddie bravo
He had a hit TV show.
He probably has a billion dollars.
joe rogan
Yeah, but I mean that guy...
What hit TV show did he have?
What is it?
unidentified
I think it was called The Parenthood.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
unidentified
When the WB just started up.
joe rogan
Listen, he definitely didn't make a billion dollars.
unidentified
No!
joe rogan
I'll tell you right now.
brendan schaub
The WB ain't paying me a billion.
joe rogan
But he used to do like these comedy specials like Robert Townsend Presents.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
And they were like Damon would go on and do like 10 Minutes and all these different comics would go on.
But he was a famous like celebrated guy back then.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Maybe he just got tired of the bullshit, man.
Maybe he just got tired of the spotlight.
brendan schaub
You said, fuck it.
joe rogan
That happened to a lot of those guys.
eddie bravo
He might be producing shit.
joe rogan
He very well could be.
eddie bravo
Because that's what Keenan's doing.
Keenan's behind the scenes.
joe rogan
Yeah, they probably get tired of the bullshit, man.
Some guys say, fuck it, right?
Yeah, they go, what is the benefit of this?
eddie bravo
Yeah, like Dave Chappelle.
Look at him.
Look what he's doing, man.
joe rogan
He stopped doing anything.
He doesn't put anything out.
No specials.
brendan schaub
He's doing stand-up though.
Kills it.
joe rogan
Still writing.
brendan schaub
Legend.
joe rogan
You gotta go see him live to see it, which is kind of crazy.
brendan schaub
It's kind of cool.
eddie bravo
The one time he showed up at the comedy store maybe eight years ago in the main room, man, I've never seen you so blown away.
He was killing.
Usually you're in the back going, this guy fucking eats dicks or something.
You walk out.
joe rogan
It's very hard to impress you.
That's a gross mischaracterization of how I look at comedians.
eddie bravo
Bad ones.
joe rogan
But very few are really good that I'll sit down there and watch.
eddie bravo
I'm just exaggerating.
joe rogan
But for me, that's not a good exaggeration.
There's, like, guys that I'll definitely go see if they're there.
Like, Bill Burr, I'll see him every time he's there.
It's hilarious.
There's, like, there's a few guys that are, like, really good.
eddie bravo
I was talking about, like, open micers.
That's what I meant.
brendan schaub
Well, of course.
eddie bravo
But when Dave Chappelle came on, dude, you, when it was over, we were dying so hard, when it was over, you turned around and you had this look on your, you walked out of the comedy store and you said, I've never been so inspired in all my life.
You just wanted to go home and write jokes and shit.
You were really inspired.
joe rogan
When I see someone really good, that's the first instinct, right?
Like, man.
I want to hit another level now.
I want to go home and write.
I want to get my fucking thoughts in order.
That's one of the best things about living in L.A. You get to see all these really great guys go up.
You get to see these people go up and you go, God.
I really think everybody sort of feeds off each other in that regard.
You'll watch, like Louis C.K. did two nights at the Comedy Store this week.
You know, he did like, I think he did Sunday and Monday night.
And then, you know, like, they'll have a show on Tuesday or Wednesday nights.
A girl will be there or, you know, some of the other great guys that are in town.
It's just one of the places, one of the few places, maybe there's only one other one.
I think maybe New York, that could happen.
Like, on a regular basis, you'll see, like, top-level headliners.
Over and over and over like that.
brendan schaub
Don't you say it's the best time?
joe rogan
I think it's the best time for comedy ever.
I think there's never been more really funny comics than right now.
As far as me, as a fan, say if I never did stand-up again, or I never did it at all, I just watched it, I just looked around, and I compare this era to any other era.
Even people I don't know.
Take Aria out of the mix and Joey out of the mix and all the people I think are hilarious.
I still think this is the best time ever.
I look around at all these fucking people.
There's so many.
Stanhope and Burr and Dave Attell and Louis C.K. and Chappelle.
You could keep going.
Ian Edwards.
A lot of people don't even know about Ian Edwards.
brendan schaub
He's a beast.
joe rogan
He's a fucking monster.
brendan schaub
He's so funny.
unidentified
Super monster, yeah.
joe rogan
And there's a bunch of those guys, man.
There's guys like that in Austin, Texas.
There's guys like that in Denver.
There's guys like that in New York.
There's guys like that in Boston.
This is a really unusual time.
Super unusual time.
I think it's because of the internet.
Because people can watch other people do stand-up now.
You can see everybody set ever.
You could watch a Richard Pryor thing, then an Eddie Murphy thing.
eddie bravo
Every guy you mentioned right there, I wish I had a YouTube video that was like a three-hour video of just all the guys you said.
Because anybody that impresses you, that's the one thing I knew.
If they impressed you, they gotta be good.
brendan schaub
Well, they're on YouTube, Eddie.
eddie bravo
Bill Burr impresses the shit out of you right now.
I want one video, a mix of all those guys.
joe rogan
Burr impresses the fucking shit out of me right now, but as does Stanhope.
Every time I see Stanhope, I want to go right.
You know, he's another guy that inspires the shit out of me.
brendan schaub
We had Burr on the podcast today, and you know, I love comedians, man.
I watch all their stuff, all you guys.
And I think it was the first podcast where it's the least amount of time I've ever spent talking.
He just went.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
brendan schaub
I was like, do your fucking thing, man.
joe rogan
Well, he does that on my podcast, too.
He'll joke around about it, being OCD or ADD or whatever the fuck he is, but it's real.
unidentified
It's real.
joe rogan
He'll go from one subject to the next subject to the next subject before you even get a word in.
He'll just keep changing subjects.
brendan schaub
Boom, boom, boom.
joe rogan
But it's one of the reasons why is because he does his own podcast by himself.
He's one of the few guys that does a podcast.
He does it called the Monday Morning Podcast and he does it on Thursday too.
And what he does is he just turns on his iPhone or his microphone and just starts talking.
brendan schaub
It goes.
joe rogan
That makes sense.
You go for like an hour and a half.
Bill Burr.
So for an hour and a half, he just ADDs the fuck out and talks about...
He'll do a fucking...
I can't...
I don't watch football, so I don't pay attention, but he'll do fucking an hour on the Patriots, you know, and just go off about scores and...
He's crazy.
But hilarious.
His podcast is good.
His stand-up is amazing.
His stand-up is amongst the best ever right now.
He's one of the best ever.
And I think that between him and, like I said, you can just keep going down the line.
unidentified
Like Kevin Hart.
joe rogan
Kevin Hart, he's the most successful guy ever.
brendan schaub
Most successful tour ever.
joe rogan
Yeah, ever.
Yeah, ever.
Ever by far, I think.
I think he's doing a thing in Philadelphia where he did it.
I don't know if he's gonna do it or did do it.
brendan schaub
He's gonna do it.
joe rogan
50,000 seats, and it had already sold like 40,000 seats, like months out.
brendan schaub
That's where he ends his tour, yeah.
joe rogan
It's insane.
He's giant.
He's just giant.
eddie bravo
Who's that black comedian that kind of went crazy for that?
unidentified
Cat Williams.
eddie bravo
Cat Williams.
brendan schaub
What's his current status?
joe rogan
He did a special like I want to say a year and a half ago with Spike Lee, like Spike Lee directed it and it was pretty good.
It was pretty good.
But, you know, he went through a real bad spell where he seemed like he was kind of losing his mind.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I saw him live in Bakersfield, man.
joe rogan
Oh, you did?
eddie bravo
Yeah, he had a meltdown on stage.
brendan schaub
Recently or no?
eddie bravo
This is when all that shit was going down maybe two years ago.
joe rogan
You saw him have a meltdown?
eddie bravo
Fuck yeah!
There was no comedy going on.
unidentified
How big was the place?
eddie bravo
I don't know if he was on drugs or anything.
joe rogan
That's where he filmed his special, I think.
No, no, no.
I thought it was in Australia or Ontario.
Ontario, California.
eddie bravo
Oh, no, no.
This is Bakersfield, man.
brendan schaub
Really?
eddie bravo
He was just sweating and doing push-ups on stage and running out in the audience.
brendan schaub
No jokes!
eddie bravo
He was just like...
brendan schaub
It's pretty crazy.
joe rogan
So how long did this go on for?
eddie bravo
Me and my wife left.
He's losing his mind.
This is not even a show.
joe rogan
What was the audience doing?
eddie bravo
They weren't laughing.
joe rogan
So how long did he do it for?
How long did you guys stay?
eddie bravo
I left after a half hour.
I couldn't take it.
joe rogan
So for a half an hour, he's just doing push-ups and running around?
eddie bravo
Yeah, I thought he was like setting up the show and he's running around and he's talking about it.
And he lost his mind, 100%.
And all that shit was going down.
I don't know, was it Suge Knight involved somehow?
Something was going down.
I don't know.
joe rogan
He had a funny bit in his special.
brendan schaub
He was so funny.
joe rogan
You know you're fucked up when you're getting arrested and Suge Knight's right next to you.
unidentified
He's hilarious to me.
brendan schaub
And not arresting him.
He's hilarious to me.
eddie bravo
And not arresting him.
unidentified
He's so funny.
joe rogan
He's very funny.
brendan schaub
Oh man, yeah.
joe rogan
He's very funny.
eddie bravo
Before that happened, he was on fire.
I couldn't wait to see him.
I'm so excited.
I love Cat Williams.
He's hilarious.
joe rogan
He's so good.
When he was on, he was one of the best.
eddie bravo
What about Pablo Francisco?
Is he still around?
joe rogan
I saw Pablo maybe four or five months ago at the Comedy Store.
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Tracy Morgan's back.
joe rogan
Tracy Morgan.
He started doing stand-up again, but I don't think he's touring.
I know he did the Comedy Cellar.
It was like the first time since the accident he did that place.
eddie bravo
What happened in the accident exactly?
joe rogan
They got hit by a guy who fell asleep while he was driving a semi.
brendan schaub
Walmart, right?
eddie bravo
He got hit by a semi?
joe rogan
They got hit in their limo by a semi.
Yeah, and one of the guys with him died.
brendan schaub
His boy died.
joe rogan
His buddy died, and another guy has some pretty significant brain damage.
One of the other ones that is like, you can't remember anything, he's all fucked up.
And then Cat Tracy got a broken leg and some serious other injuries.
He got really jacked, like real bad.
I think he's still walking with a cane.
brendan schaub
Yeah, got a huge settlement.
He has a funny commercial for Beats.
joe rogan
It can't be enough.
brendan schaub
He's like, I was in a coma for a year, and I come out and they got these headphones.
It's funny.
joe rogan
Oh, that's hilarious.
That's funny.
unidentified
Oh, man.
joe rogan
He's fucking funny.
Yeah.
This is the best time, man.
Best time for stand-up.
Best time.
So many guys right now.
It's also best time for women stand-ups, too.
Best female comics are right now.
brendan schaub
Amy Schumer's as big as it gets right now.
joe rogan
She's definitely as big popularity-wise.
You know who is probably one of the funniest fucking people alive right now?
brendan schaub
Whitney Cummings.
joe rogan
She's hilarious.
She's hilarious.
brendan schaub
She has an HBO special too.
joe rogan
Yes, that's right.
I think it just came out, right?
eddie bravo
Whitney Cummings?
joe rogan
Came out last week.
brendan schaub
Whitney Cummings, a beast.
joe rogan
She's hilarious.
She's fucking smart as shit.
Is she black?
No, she's white.
She was on the podcast like two weeks ago.
She's smart as shit.
unidentified
She's brilliant.
joe rogan
She's very cool too.
She's at the Comedy Store all the time.
I was going to say Sarah Silverman.
God damn, she's funny right now.
I mean, she's always been funny, but I saw her recent set.
She did a set at the Comedy Store like maybe a month and a half, two months ago.
brendan schaub
Sarah Silverman?
joe rogan
Murdered.
brendan schaub
Murdered.
joe rogan
She's super talented.
And she's on right now.
You know, comics go through like stages sometimes where they're inspired or maybe they're doing too much other shit.
Like maybe doing some acting.
brendan schaub
She broke into the big time a little bit for a while there.
joe rogan
She's doing acting.
She probably still does.
brendan schaub
Jimmy Kimmel, remember that?
joe rogan
Yeah.
She probably still does.
But her stand-up right now is on fire.
brendan schaub
Eliza Schlesinger's a beast, too.
joe rogan
I haven't seen Eliza do a set in a long time.
I've run into her, but I haven't seen her do a set in a long time.
She won last comic standing.
brendan schaub
Yeah, she has some show now.
I forget what it's on.
joe rogan
She has a podcast, too.
Truth and Eliza.
brendan schaub
For me, Whitney's the funniest.
joe rogan
She's hilarious right now.
And she works hard, dude.
That girl grinds.
I always see her at the store going over her notes.
She's always improving bits.
She doesn't settle for the way a bit is.
She makes them better.
She twists them around.
She adds things.
brendan schaub
Her work ethic is cray-cray.
joe rogan
What we talked about is she comes from the world of athletics.
She's used to working hard.
She's used to working hard for things.
So she treats it almost like a competitive thing.
brendan schaub
Most people don't know.
I mean, she's a writer for Two Broke Girls.
She developed Two Broke Girls.
joe rogan
She's an executive producer.
It's her show.
She's a gangster, dude.
She does documentaries on the side.
She contacts me about a documentary on violence.
brendan schaub
I'm like, what?
joe rogan
They're just doing a documentary on the side?
brendan schaub
Crazy, man.
joe rogan
Like, who fucking directs documentaries on the side?
But she's really open about how nuts she is.
She needs to constantly fill her time with productive activities because productive things make her feel good about herself.
So she's addicted to progress.
brendan schaub
Yeah, preach.
joe rogan
But she's really good.
She's smart as shit, dude.
I had to look up a couple of words she said.
brendan schaub
Yeah, she'll drop some words on you like, ah.
joe rogan
But she's not fucking with you.
brendan schaub
No, that's her.
joe rogan
Yeah.
She's not doing it just to make you, like, when people drop a word on me and I know what they're doing, I go, ew, I know what you're doing.
But she was, you know, that's a weird thing to say, too.
But you kind of know when someone's doing it and when they're not.
brendan schaub
You know 100%.
YouTube, her commencement speech for college, it's brilliant.
It's crazy.
It's inspiring.
It's not funny, though?
Is it funny?
Yes and no, yeah.
Oh, okay.
I was about to say, I wouldn't be mad at y'alls if you wanted to put up a two-minute clip of this Whitney Cummings.
joe rogan
No, no, no, never.
You can't do that.
You can't?
eddie bravo
Oh, you kill their jokes.
joe rogan
No, yeah, it's their shit.
And I don't know what they want out or don't want out.
eddie bravo
What if it's on YouTube?
joe rogan
No, but there's a lot of people that have shit on YouTube they don't want on YouTube.
brendan schaub
She's probably just happy we talked about an HBO special that's coming out.
joe rogan
Yeah, I think it's out.
I think it's out right now.
I think it's called I'm Your Girlfriend.
I think it came out December 18th.
I want to say it was the 18th.
That might be Bill Burr's F is for Family.
brendan schaub
Bill Burr's thing, F for Family, is on Netflix.
joe rogan
It's on now, on Netflix, and you can binge watch it.
eddie bravo
Man, Netflix is just turning into a legit force.
joe rogan
January 23rd.
Okay, now we know.
All right.
unidentified
Boom.
joe rogan
She's awesome, though.
She's very, very cool.
Plus, she's like a cool chick to hang with.
Like, you could talk to her.
Like, on the podcast, it was just laughing and fun.
brendan schaub
One of the best people I've ever met.
eddie bravo
Is she pretty, or is that just photo?
brendan schaub
She's very pretty.
joe rogan
She's very pretty.
Yeah, she's an anomaly.
She's a fucking unicorn.
She's not supposed to exist.
unidentified
Damn!
joe rogan
So there's her, Jen Kirkman's really funny, Chelsea...
Handler?
No, what's the other one?
Chelsea Peretti.
Chelsea Peretti's really funny.
There's a lot of really funny.
You know who's fucking hilarious?
Tom Segura's wife, Christina Pazitsky.
Dude, she had me crying one night in the OR. Crying.
eddie bravo
She's a comedian.
joe rogan
Slaying.
Dude, she's funny.
She's funny.
Like, really good.
They just had a baby.
brendan schaub
I know.
eddie bravo
Interesting.
joe rogan
Little Tommy.
brendan schaub
Tom cracks me up, man.
Tom's hilarious.
joe rogan
He's fucking killing it right now.
brendan schaub
He's great.
joe rogan
He just did his second Netflix special.
He did one Netflix special, and it changed his whole comedy, like, his whole career.
One special, he went from doing really well in clubs.
He was doing really well because of his podcast and because of word of mouth.
People had heard.
You build a market.
You go to Dallas.
You kill.
Then people, you come back.
You do the radio.
I remember that guy.
He was really funny.
If you do that over the course of a few years, you can build a market.
There was a couple of places that I did that, like Houston, before I ever had anything really going on.
But Tom was doing that and doing really well.
And then all of a sudden, he does his Netflix special.
Boom!
Now he's selling out theaters.
brendan schaub
That was the tilt.
joe rogan
Boom!
Yeah, well, he had the product, he had the funny comedy.
And Ari just sold out 1,200 seats in Toronto.
brendan schaub
Holy shit!
joe rogan
1,200 seats for Ari Shafir.
brendan schaub
That's incredible.
joe rogan
I know.
And I was like, dude, what was that like?
And we were talking about it.
He's like, it's amazing.
Ari was ready to throw in the towel just a few years ago with life.
unidentified
With life?
joe rogan
He was suicidal.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
He was unhappy.
You know, and one of the things that, I don't know if, I'm pretty sure he's talked about this on the podcast, but he was taking Propecia.
And Propecia, one of the side effects for some people is depression.
brendan schaub
I fucking told Callan it's bad.
joe rogan
It's depressing.
Is Callan taking that shit?
Yes.
And that's when he's been kind of fucking weird lately.
brendan schaub
Have you seen his hair lately?
joe rogan
Yeah, shave his head.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I agree.
joe rogan
Let it go, bitch.
brendan schaub
He shaved it short.
joe rogan
He doesn't want to.
He wants to act.
He wants the stage.
He wants to be on the stage.
unidentified
He wants the stage.
joe rogan
He loves acting.
He doesn't want to admit it, but he loves it.
brendan schaub
I agree.
He's like, I don't need to do it.
He loves it.
joe rogan
He's good at it.
brendan schaub
I know.
Keep doing it, man.
joe rogan
Like on sitcoms and in television shows and in movies, like those parts he does.
He's great.
The Bachelor, or not The Bachelor, The Hangover.
brendan schaub
Hangover.
joe rogan
He's fucking funny.
He's really good at it.
brendan schaub
In Chicago, he fucking ripped my soul apart, man.
His fucking...
He was on fire.
joe rogan
That's my point.
His stand-up is really what he's best at.
Yeah.
brendan schaub
That's his gift.
joe rogan
Yeah.
And the more...
It's like one of those things.
It's like, he likes doing it, but it...
It's tricky.
The more time you spend doing other things, like acting, especially 16 hour days on set, especially if you get a sitcom or something like that, there's a lot of time where you don't get to do stand-up.
brendan schaub
He's doing that, our podcast as a motherfucker now, with everything we've got going on.
How often do you guys go a week?
Two or three times a week.
And then we have the digital series, which, you know, that takes...
joe rogan
Damn, you're doing two or three times a week.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Wow.
It's crazy, isn't it?
Isn't it crazy that podcasting was just like a goof?
Just a little while ago, just a few years ago.
brendan schaub
We started in wife beaters in Brian's garage, just like fucking around.
Like, this is a terrible idea.
I don't want to do this.
joe rogan
But isn't it always how these things work?
brendan schaub
Two wife beaters.
joe rogan
These things work because you're fucking around.
Like, a show, if this was produced on television, right?
And your show was, uh, someone came up to you and they said, this is our idea, we're gonna dress you up in the finest fashions, and we're gonna light you, we're gonna put your makeup on, and then we're gonna, you know, tell you what to talk about.
Ready, go.
You'd never be able to call yourself Big Dick Bandits and start singing stories.
Stupid songs.
Callan would start singing a song about something and they would cut you off.
You can't sing a song about the muscles in your back.
But since it's just you guys and you're just fucking around, then it becomes what it is.
And then after it becomes what it is, it gets bigger and bigger until someone comes along and says, hey, why don't you guys do that for us?
brendan schaub
It's crazy.
It's insane.
joe rogan
It is insane.
eddie bravo
Do you guys ever get in trouble for anything you say?
brendan schaub
Fox, because our numbers have been so good, they're kind of just like, let them do their thing.
I don't know if they like us.
joe rogan
They tried to get you guys to stop swearing.
brendan schaub
Oh yeah.
joe rogan
Which is hilarious.
brendan schaub
Yes.
We had a meeting.
They're like, is there any way you can say dick less and stop swearing?
Is that at all possible?
Me and Kyle are like, no, if you censor us, we gotta go somewhere else.
joe rogan
They can't.
brendan schaub
They're like, do your thing.
joe rogan
They can't stop it.
Once things get big, they can't stop it.
It starts rolling.
They can't stop it.
And then once you stop fighting for the UFC... Nobody can tell you what to do.
brendan schaub
It's weird.
I think I can say whatever I want.
joe rogan
There's no strings.
You're like fucking Pinocchio.
I have no strings to hold me down, to make me sad or make me frown.
I had strings, but now I'm free.
There are no strings on me.
Hi-ho the merry-o, nothing ever bothers me.
unidentified
I love this!
joe rogan
I want the world to know.
unidentified
What the fuck?
brendan schaub
It's weird, man.
Think about it.
This time last year, I was trying to decide what the fuck I'm going to do.
joe rogan
Yeah.
It gets tricky, man.
Trying to plot your life out, it's like when things start getting going, then it's like once you find something that starts getting going, then it's just follow through with it and stay on it and stay focused.
brendan schaub
Stay the course.
joe rogan
But for a lot of people, like young guys, like I got a nephew.
I'm talking to my nephew about what he wants to do.
I'm like, you got to find what you want.
Like, what is it you want?
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
But for a lot of people, it's hard to find a thing.
Once you find a thing, then you're like, fuck, I'm going for it.
That's the issue.
Once you find a thing, then you go for it.
But it's hard to find a thing for a lot of people.
And then there's a lot of people that have a gig.
So they have a thing that they love.
Maybe they like tattooing or something like that.
But they got this job.
So they can only tattoo on Saturday mornings.
And their wife gives them a hard time.
And they're like, I'm thinking about becoming a tattooist.
Oh my god, you're not going to make any money.
You know, and they have a hard time ever finding their thing and making it a gig.
So when you get something like what you guys have, you found a thing and it's taken off and now you're selling out all these shows.
Like you guys are killing it everywhere.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
They're selling out everywhere.
They're selling out all over the country.
They do these live fighter in the kids shows.
unidentified
I know.
brendan schaub
I follow them on Instagram.
You know what I like?
Your flyer that was my favorite so far is your face on Callan's head and his face on your head.
Hideous.
That looks fucking freaky.
Someone photoshopped a fan.
Is it photoshopped Steve?
I don't know who it was.
It might be.
I don't know.
Yeah, because it's really good.
unidentified
It's odd.
brendan schaub
It was weird.
I was like, oh my god.
joe rogan
Did it bother you?
brendan schaub
I look like a pedophile.
I look like I sell Subway sandwiches.
I look terrible.
I look terrible.
Things are good, man.
We barely talked about fighting.
joe rogan
You know what's interesting?
We haven't at all.
brendan schaub
Great whites.
joe rogan
You know what's interesting, man, is how the UFC hasn't done their own podcast yet.
I talked to them about doing it a while back.
I think there was some mention about it.
But I think the swearing thing was also an issue with them.
There was some concern.
brendan schaub
Meanwhile, Dana swears more than you.
joe rogan
He doesn't anymore.
brendan schaub
Fuck said bitch, please.
joe rogan
He very rarely swears like he used to.
Like, you know, he used to have those press conferences and he would swear.
I think he probably still does a little every now and then?
Maybe?
Barely.
I think he also realizes it just causes more problems than it is.
It's like the freedom that you get from speaking your mind saying whatever you want.
It's almost like it's not worth it because it causes so many hassles and so many fires that you have to put out.
brendan schaub
We want to be taken serious.
You don't see like, you know, Roger Goodell cussing about Tom Brady.
I don't think people would look at the sport serious if he kept doing that.
joe rogan
That's true.
Well, you know what, man?
I don't want his job.
Dana White's job is fucking brutal.
That guy works so hard, and he's constantly working, and shit is constantly falling apart.
There's always constantly, like, a new blowout, a new this, a new that, a new fucking fire he has to put out.
It never stops.
It never ends.
It pays well.
brendan schaub
What, like 40 million a year?
unidentified
Pays pretty good.
joe rogan
I don't know what it pays.
unidentified
I'll figure it out.
I've never asked.
brendan schaub
I'd figure things out.
joe rogan
Would you?
brendan schaub
Would you take that gig?
joe rogan
No, you wouldn't.
You'd go right back to podcasting.
brendan schaub
I podcast everywhere.
That's a billion dollars though right there.
joe rogan
Well, I think, you know...
brendan schaub
I like the freedom to do what the fuck I want to do.
joe rogan
See, the thing is, you wouldn't get that kind of money unless you did what he did, which was like, build it from the beginning.
Like, you don't get that money if you come in as a fucking executive now.
Like, if they had to hire some new guy...
brendan schaub
No, he's not getting a share.
joe rogan
No, that guy's getting a good salary.
He'll make some good money.
But the Dana White effect is when the sport is non-existent.
brendan schaub
Yeah, and you've got two rich friends.
joe rogan
You've got two rich friends.
They put up mad cash.
They lose a fuckload.
They were $44 million in the hole before it turns around with the Ultimate Fighter.
And then it takes off and becomes this giant sport.
brendan schaub
The rich friends were key, though.
joe rogan
Gigantic.
Not just rich friends.
But Eddie and I talked about this.
It's almost like...
It's almost like we're in a movie because we would always say the same thing.
We would always say the same thing.
What we used to say.
brendan schaub
There's no way the sport isn't gonna take over.
It's impossible.
joe rogan
Yeah, but what did we say?
We said this is what the sport needs.
Two super rich dudes that are worth billions of dollars that don't give a fuck.
brendan schaub
Just do it.
joe rogan
Just throw all this money at the sport and make it big.
unidentified
Yep.
joe rogan
And that's exactly what happened.
brendan schaub
You found him.
joe rogan
That's exactly what happened.
And they fucked up along the way.
They hired Carmen Electra to be their spokesperson at one point in time.
brendan schaub
See, I dug that.
joe rogan
Remember that?
brendan schaub
Oh, yeah.
I dug that.
joe rogan
Was Paris Hilton involved as well?
brendan schaub
No.
unidentified
With what?
joe rogan
No?
brendan schaub
He's Carmen Electra.
Yeah, no.
They had to draw the line somewhere.
joe rogan
I don't even think Chuck was the king back then.
I think Chuck wasn't the champion.
I think Tito was.
brendan schaub
I mean, you gotta mix things up.
unidentified
Remember when they had girls doing post-fight interviews for a while?
joe rogan
Oh, they did, yeah.
They had a few.
brendan schaub
That was funny.
I forget who they were.
Very nice girls.
unidentified
Super nice girls.
joe rogan
There's Carmen Electra with Tito and Vitor.
unidentified
Dude, she was a dime piece back then.
joe rogan
That was light heavyweight Vitor.
brendan schaub
Fuck yes.
joe rogan
Yeah, wow.
Crazy.
brendan schaub
I am not mad at that.
joe rogan
Yeah, interesting.
They tried a bunch of different things.
They just tried to get people to pay attention to it.
And it wasn't until The Ultimate Fighter.
What's crazy is The Ultimate Fighter almost didn't get made.
Almost didn't get made.
They had to pay for the whole thing.
It was basically a giant infomercial.
They had to essentially pay.
It was Spike TV. Nobody gave a fuck about Spike TV back then.
brendan schaub
Not at the time, yeah.
joe rogan
And then they put together this show, and they're losing so much fucking money.
brendan schaub
You gotta take risks, though.
joe rogan
And then they get to the finals, and Forrest Griffin is fighting Stephen Bonner, and the whole fucking world tunes in.
brendan schaub
Calling each other.
Then it takes off.
joe rogan
It just grows.
It was like the seed that got planted.
Look at that Carlos Newton.
brendan schaub
Who remembers him?
Dude, look at Jen's pulver.
joe rogan
Look at Randy.
brendan schaub
Look at Izzo.
joe rogan
Oh my goodness, Pedro Izzo.
brendan schaub
Wow.
Prosive.
joe rogan
Pedro just fought his last fight.
Just retired a couple months ago.
brendan schaub
Get ready for a lesson in submission.
That's not a moose knuckle, is it?
joe rogan
That's a fucking...
That's the whole leg.
brendan schaub
Dude, that's the biggest moose knuckle ever.
joe rogan
That's not a knuckle.
That's the whole thigh.
That's a moose ham.
brendan schaub
Dude, she is a...
Design.
joe rogan
She was very hot.
She's very nice, too.
I did a Spike TV thing with her.
We hosted this car show together.
She's super, like, down to earth.
Really nice person.
brendan schaub
Is she married now?
joe rogan
I don't know.
I'm not a gossip hound.
Jamie is, though.
Ask him.
He probably knows.
brendan schaub
Is she taking to him?
She's older.
joe rogan
She's probably still hot as fuck.
brendan schaub
Oh, I agree.
eddie bravo
She did post-fight interviews, right?
And didn't, like, there was a Playboy Playmate?
Remember, there was that blonde one?
joe rogan
Yeah, there was another one.
eddie bravo
I forget who it was.
And then Casey Kasem's daughter did it.
joe rogan
Carrie Kasem.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
You know, you gotta swing.
joe rogan
Well, you know what they were doing?
They were doing a bunch of different things.
They got on Best Damn Sports Show, remember that?
Yes.
And Leanne Tweeden did part of that as well.
brendan schaub
Leanne Tweeden!
joe rogan
Super nice, too.
She's super cool.
Very smart, too.
brendan schaub
Smart.
joe rogan
She's fucking sharp.
She's easy on the ice.
But she was only involved in one because it was with Best Damn Sports Show.
brendan schaub
Well, what's up with, I don't know if you can talk about it, because Dominic, they're trying now, where this is the first time ever in a main event, they had Dominic Cruz in there with the three.
joe rogan
It was awesome.
I would like to do it with him all the time.
He's fucking great.
He's great, and he got me fired up.
brendan schaub
He's a smart dude.
joe rogan
He's great.
He's a smart dude, and his knowledge of MMA is just fucking outstanding, especially footwork and positioning and striking.
brendan schaub
He's a technician.
joe rogan
Super technical.
And we did the Fox Sports prelims together, or the, excuse me, the Fight Pass prelims together.
And you looking for the joint?
unidentified
There's a lighter.
joe rogan
Where's the lighter?
There's one in here.
Oh, there's one right in front of you, dude.
brendan schaub
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
We did the FS1, no, Fight Pass.
Fight Pass prelims together.
The three prelims.
And he was outstanding, man.
And we also did a lot of talking backstage.
He and I talked.
We shared philosophies.
No, I'm good, dude.
We were talking about upcoming matchups, like how we thought about this fight or that fight.
He really favored Cowboy over Dos Anjos, which I thought was interesting.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I think a lot of people did.
joe rogan
Yeah.
I thought it was a who-the-fuck-knows fight.
brendan schaub
Me too.
joe rogan
I felt like the pressure that Dos Anjos put on Pettis, I felt like that's going to fuck with anybody, man.
brendan schaub
I agree.
It's going to be tough to beat that guy.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Very tough.
With all that jiu-jitsu, too.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He's phenomenal.
joe rogan
Someone's going to have to catch him when he's making that mad charge.
And I think someone with the kind of footwork that Conor has might have the best chance.
But if those two do match up, you're going to see pressure that Conor's never experienced before.
And he's also got Rafael Cordero, who's a phenomenal striking coach.
brendan schaub
One of the best in the world.
joe rogan
He's going to break down what Conor's doing and Conor's movement.
brendan schaub
Good luck breaking that down.
joe rogan
You're right.
brendan schaub
Because we haven't seen enough footage to really break that down, and we haven't seen Conor with that pressure.
You know what I'm saying?
The other thing is, when Conor hits people with that left hand, it's game over.
I don't think it's game over for Dos Anjos.
He's too big.
He's a bigger guy.
It might be, but you're talking about a different weight class now.
Where does he lose the power?
eddie bravo
Does he take the power totally into the lightweights and then he loses it at welterweight?
Could he still knock out welterweights?
joe rogan
He knocked out Benson, and Benson's fighting welterweight, and he fought Brandon Thatch.
And Thatch is a big fucker.
He's big and he hits hard as a welterweight.
And Thatch didn't put away Benson, but Dos Anjos did.
Dos Anjos fucked him up.
He was the first guy to stop Benson.
I think Dos Anjos has the kind of power that he takes wherever...
He probably...
155 is probably optimum.
He does look very thin, though, on the weigh-ins.
He's definitely sucking some weight.
brendan schaub
There's no IVs either now.
joe rogan
That's another X factor.
No IVs now, but he looked amazing.
brendan schaub
Amazing.
joe rogan
You know, and the other thing is, like, people are talking about people looking different before the PED scare or before the testing.
You can't say that about him.
He looks exactly the same.
He looks better than ever.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
And you also, there's no radical change from the first time he was in the UFC. What you see with Dos Anjos is a slow, steady progression.
Until like the Nick Curzon days, then you see like a little a little stronger a little faster like and then you see the the Pettis fight just phenomenal cardio That's the thing that blew me away the most about that fight the amount of cardio that he had to have to put that pace on Pettis for five rounds I mean, that's just you got to be in insane condition.
It's gonna be tough to beat that guy Then you find out that in that fight for the two weeks before the fight he fucked his knee up.
Yeah So he had to do airdyne sprints.
That's all he did for the two weeks before the fight.
He couldn't do any sparring.
brendan schaub
Non-stop.
joe rogan
Still put it to him.
Like, there was nothing wrong.
And then you saw him in this fight, 100% healthy.
He's a fucking monster.
I talked to Ryan Parsons about him, and Ryan Parsons said, he was telling him two years ago, he's like, if you keep going, you are the champion of the world.
Like, it's just a matter of time.
brendan schaub
Ryan knows his shit.
joe rogan
Ryan knows his shit, and Ryan was telling me he was watching him, no names, but just fuck dudes up.
Dudes that are, like, really high-level UFC caliber fighters, and Dos Anjos just fucking them up in the gym.
brendan schaub
Dude, he's a horrible matchup for anyone, including Conor.
It's a tough matchup, man.
A bigger guy with that pressure and can grapple.
joe rogan
And nasty power, man.
His power is nasty.
The question is, would he be able to have that same kind of approach on Conor, who is very elusive, very light on his feet?
Like, you saw with the Aldo fight, how he's moving, he's moving back, he's throwing sidekicks to the legs, he's moving back.
Like, would he be able to just do what he did with Cowboy to...
To Connor.
Will you be able to do that same approach?
Like, look for that straight shot.
He throws that straight left hand a lot.
The other thing to take into consideration, this is a big thing, is that this would be Connor fighting a Southpaw.
A super dangerous Southpaw.
And one of the things about Southpaw is fuck you up, man.
They confuse the shit out of you.
Everything's coming from the wrong side.
Everything's weird.
The right hand is now the jab.
The jab is the right hand.
Like, what?
brendan schaub
There's a lot of huge factors.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Can Dos Anjos deal with Conor's speed?
Does Conor have the knockout power at 55 against a bigger guy?
joe rogan
I think he does.
unidentified
I really do.
brendan schaub
I think he does.
I agree.
He's not got as much weight.
joe rogan
And his power is so substantial.
brendan schaub
And angles.
He's surprising guys with his angles.
There's a lot that goes into that fight, man.
Again, I'm not taking anything from Dos Anjos.
He's an amazing champion.
I don't know if that's the marquee fight, though.
As crazy as that sounds, the world's a weird place.
joe rogan
But here's what the thing.
It might be after Fox, because you've got to think that UFC on Fox has got millions of people to watch, and we saw a destroyer in Dos Anjos.
brendan schaub
But what are we talking about?
What's everyone talking about?
Diaz.
joe rogan
You are talking about Diaz.
That is true.
That is true.
Because of that post-fight interview.
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
But I still think people are talking about Dos Anjos, too.
brendan schaub
A little bit, because he just kind of murked Cowboy in 66 seconds.
eddie bravo
They both work, but Nate Diaz...
Just, you know, Dos Anjos has the belt.
You got that, you know, but it makes sense that you go with Nate Diaz because of all the shit talking and all that.
joe rogan
Maybe.
eddie bravo
That makes sense.
And also, you know, maybe, you know, some people say you can't go up and wait and contend for the belt right away.
It's a good...
brendan schaub
The thing is, it puts 145 in limbo.
joe rogan
Yeah, one of the things about UFC, though, is they don't give a fuck.
They don't have to follow the rules.
One of the good things about not being constrained by a WBC or an IBF, like boxing is...
brendan schaub
Good and bad.
joe rogan
Yeah, we were talking about the Vladimir Klitschko fight that they stripped Vladimir, not Vladimir, Tyson Fury, who beat Vladimir Klitschko.
They stripped him of one of his titles like immediately because he didn't want to fight the mandatory number one contender.
So they immediately stripped him, like within two weeks, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's like really quick.
And that wouldn't happen in the UFC. Just not going to happen.
And in the UFC, the mandatory contender is whoever the fuck they say.
Yeah, whoever they can sell.
Yeah.
If they say, look, this is all about making money, and Nate Diaz is going to make you some fucking money.
eddie bravo
And I have no complaints about that.
I like that.
joe rogan
Yeah, but if you were a fighter, that would drive you crazy.
brendan schaub
It'd drive you fucking nuts.
joe rogan
But if you were the number one contender like Frankie Edgar, and you've been beating dudes' asses, and you've been fucking up everybody, and you just knocked out Chad Mendes in spectacular fashion, and before that, you beat Uriah Faber, clearly, and then beat the brakes off Cub Swanson and submitted him in the fifth round.
brendan schaub
And you're a former...
joe rogan
And before that, you beat the fuck out of BJ Penn.
But it's not going to happen right now, and it should happen right now.
If you're Frankie Edgar and you've been a respectful guy who's just been going out there and fighting his ass off and beating guys' asses, you're like, that fucking guy deserves his shot at the title.
brendan schaub
What about Jose?
He gets fucked out of all this.
My bad, I was undefeated for 10 years, one of the best champions of all time, and I don't deserve a shot?
joe rogan
Nope.
You know what?
Here's the thing about that.
Here's a problem with that.
The only problem with that is in business, Conor could fight right away.
Conor knocked him out with one punch.
He's fine.
Jose, for all intents and purposes, should take a long time off.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
Like at least five or six months, right?
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
He has to.
I mean, you really should.
Because if you don't, you got flatlined like that and you come back quick, we all know what happens.
You can't take a shot as well.
brendan schaub
So when he's healthy, he should get a...
Shot right away.
joe rogan
But this is where contractual agreements have to fall into play when it comes to champions, right?
Because if this was any other situation, I guarantee you, if Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao...
If Floyd Mayweather got knocked out by Manny Pacquiao, there's got to be some shit in the contract that says that Floyd gets an immediate rematch and he gets it within...
I think he said he is...
brendan schaub
I know what the contract was.
So if Manny won, there have to be two more fights.
If Manny won.
If Floyd wins, there's no more fight.
That was the contract they signed.
How crazy is that?
joe rogan
Well, you would think that Aldo would...
They don't have the power.
That's the thing.
brendan schaub
Daniel goes, here's your contract.
Sign it.
There you go.
joe rogan
And you're going to get paid.
And I'm sure he got paid.
I'm sure he made a million bucks, at least.
unidentified
Aldo?
Yeah.
brendan schaub
How much do you think Conor made?
joe rogan
Oh, he probably made...
Six or seven?
We're just guessing.
I would guess that.
But that's what I've been...
I've never...
I haven't asked...
I know too much that I can't talk about, but I haven't asked his actual salary.
But he got paid a lot of money, I would guarantee you.
brendan schaub
Millions.
joe rogan
But he wants even more now.
brendan schaub
He deserves more.
joe rogan
Now, I mean...
brendan schaub
He shouldn't fight for anything less than 20 million.
joe rogan
Dude, he shows a photo of his underwear on Instagram.
It gets 100,000 likes.
I mean, he can do whatever he wants.
brendan schaub
He's the biggest star we've ever had.
If I'm Conor, I'm his management, and I don't give a fuck what his current contract is, I say, I'm not doing anything until I get $20 million to fight.
joe rogan
He was a giant star before he knocked out Aldo.
Now he's a megastar.
He's eating suns.
brendan schaub
He's the biggest thing we've ever had.
joe rogan
He's swallowing up galaxies.
unidentified
Three!
brendan schaub
Three!
Badasses call them out.
joe rogan
What?
unidentified
Three.
joe rogan
Three in one card.
brendan schaub
One night.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Dos Anjos, Nate, and Charles Oliveira.
brendan schaub
He's the Floyd Mayweather of the UFC right now.
Everyone wants to fight him for the payday.
joe rogan
But he's way different, though, because he's knocking guys dead.
brendan schaub
Not the same fighter, I'm saying, as far as you want to fight him to make that money.
joe rogan
Yeah, but even that, like...
Do you ever remember a boxing match where three winners called out Mayweather?
Like, that's never happened before.
This is like, everybody sees like, ka-ching!
They're all like, your shirt, Scrooge McDuck.
brendan schaub
Yeah, Scrooge McDuck, like, come on, son!
unidentified
Ka-ching!
brendan schaub
Yeah, it's true, man.
We've never seen anything like it.
joe rogan
You know, they want all the stardom, they want all the perks, they want all the cash, and they think that they could beat him.
Look at that.
This is hilarious.
Yeah, he says that people think that it was a clean knockout, but it's actually a fight against multiple attackers, how he's hipping away from Big John.
eddie bravo
Have you seen that video where Big John knees him in the face?
joe rogan
No, he didn't knee him in the face.
brendan schaub
Oh, no.
eddie bravo
Have you seen the video?
joe rogan
I've seen it.
His shin brushed over the top of Aldo's face.
eddie bravo
Looks like he hit him hard.
brendan schaub
Big John's the best in the business.
joe rogan
That's crazy to look at, isn't it?
That he just knocked him dead with one shot.
brendan schaub
Insane.

Whack!
joe rogan
It's interesting that there's this new emergence of this one guy who shit talks and it sort of changes everyone's approach.
brendan schaub
Boy, did we need him though.
joe rogan
Oh my God.
brendan schaub
Boy, did the UFC need him.
joe rogan
Everybody needed him.
I mean, I think...
Ireland needed him, too.
They needed a hero like this.
brendan schaub
The world needed him.
Well, the UFC's a better place with Conor McGregor.
You can't say that about a lot of fighters.
joe rogan
But here's the thing, okay?
When we talk about Ronda, right?
Ronda did a lot of shit talking to, and Ronda was this over-the-top personality.
But when she lost, there was so much hate against her, so much backlash for her behavior.
brendan schaub
She brought it on herself.
joe rogan
She did.
But my point is, Holly emerges.
As this perfect opposite of that.
Perfect opposite of that.
She's super nice.
Like, she's really friendly and respectful and it's legit.
Like, when you talk to her...
brendan schaub
There's no fakeness.
joe rogan
Off camera, she's exactly the same way.
Super confident and also, like, really nervous about letting anything go to her head.
Like, she's talking about, I want to get back in the gym.
brendan schaub
She's also paid her dues.
joe rogan
Yeah, she's like, I don't even want to talk about this.
I don't even like all this attention because I don't want to get carried away.
But isn't that like...
The UFC needs that, too.
Like, the UFC needs someone who comes along like Holly.
And they also need someone who comes along and shows the multifaceted approach of MMA that we all know and see every day in the men's divisions is now making its way to the women's division at a very high level.
Instead of having the one person like Hoist Gracie was in the early UFC's would dominate with jiu-jitsu, right?
Nobody knew what the fuck was going on.
He would dominate.
Nobody else could keep up with him technique-wise.
There's a very similar situation with Rhonda.
Like Rhonda's dominating all these girls with arm bars.
Everybody knows the arm bars are coming.
They can't stop it.
So she starts to evolve her game.
She starts knocking out people like Sarah McMahon, Alexis Davis, and her game starts to evolve.
And then someone comes along who has the perfect solution for that.
And that perfect solution is very similar to what we saw in the men's divisions.
When men learned how to sprawl and brawl, we saw world-class kickboxers like Maurice Smith.
When Maurice Smith entered the UFC against Mark Coleman, we went, oh, look at this.
And then we see this sort of progression, and now you're seeing it in the women's division.
brendan schaub
In the women's division, too, it's like...
Girls wanted to fight Ronda, but it's not like the Connor effect, where if you fight Connor, you're making fucking bank.
The girls, a lot of them, they got smoked so fast, they got maybe a couple hundred grand, maybe, not even that, and just get smoked.
It was more of the Ronda show, you know what I'm saying?
It was a different animal.
Because she was that dominant.
joe rogan
She was that dominant.
And I don't think you can compare at all, competition-wise, what's available to a man's 145-pound champion versus a women's 135-pound champion.
brendan schaub
Not even close.
That's why when people say Ali Frazier, no.
joe rogan
It's not even in the ballpark.
You just can't.
There's nowhere nothing like it.
There's some good talent in the division.
It's shaping up.
You've got that new Russian chick that just entered.
She's a 17-time world Muay Thai champion.
She beat Ioana Jacek.
brendan schaub
17 times?
joe rogan
She won 17 different titles in different organizations.
brendan schaub
Is that the chick that fought Sarah Kaufman on 8 days notice?
Or is that someone different?
joe rogan
Yes, yes.
She fought Sarah Kaufman on 8 days notice.
brendan schaub
Out-grappled her.
joe rogan
Out-grappled her.
Yeah.
And she just stayed in the gym, luckily.
She was in pretty good shape.
But to take a fight on TV. Sarah Kaufman's a monster for the women's division.
She's really good.
And her striking is fucking super high level.
Super high level striking.
And you're going to see those, is my point.
You're going to see these Maury Smith types, but now they enter into MMA. You're going to see the Keira Gracie.
Keira Gracie doesn't want to do it.
I don't think she has a desire to do MMA. But you're going to see someone like her.
eddie bravo
She stopped training?
joe rogan
I don't think she wants a fight.
I don't know if she's set a fight up.
eddie bravo
Apparently she's been training.
brendan schaub
She's so pretty.
eddie bravo
If she's smart, she would just keep training.
joe rogan
Yeah, I read something about her saying that she's not into fighting, though.
brendan schaub
Not anymore?
joe rogan
Maybe it was just a bad translation.
eddie bravo
Maybe she changed her mind.
I don't know.
I know she was into it for a while, but I don't know.
And if we haven't heard anything from her, it's probably a smart thing on her behalf.
Just disappear and go train for a few years.
joe rogan
But just imagine if you get someone like a female Gary Tonin who decides, like, you know what?
I'm just gonna start strangling bitches.
I'm just gonna make my way into MMA and these girls can't fuck with my jiu-jitsu.
brendan schaub
Fuck that noise.
What if you get a Serena Williams?
joe rogan
Exactly.
brendan schaub
What?
She's like, let me see the armbar.
Got it.
But dude, she's just ripping bitches' faces off.
Yeah, if you get that level of athlete who commits to it, or a Marion Jones-like, and then you go, wait, I can make money over here?
I'm going to do this.
joe rogan
How about get one of those track and field chicks and teach them how to kick?
Good fucking lord.
It still takes years, though.
It does, but that was one of the things about Aldo, you know?
Aldo started off playing soccer.
It's one of the reasons why his fucking leg kicks were so nasty.
brendan schaub
Soccer, then jiu-jitsu.
And then he started picking up and doing stand-up.
joe rogan
His leg kicks were fucking ridiculous.
brendan schaub
Crazy.
joe rogan
And it's because of that.
And he's kind of fucked that he gets kind of left out of it.
brendan schaub
He's the one who gets fucked in this.
joe rogan
What do you do when a guy gets knocked out like that in 13 seconds in the fairest world possible?
brendan schaub
As soon as he's ready to go, he gets to fight for the belt.
You owe it to him.
joe rogan
You do.
brendan schaub
You owe it to him.
joe rogan
But do you allow him to choose between a rematch with McGregor or if Frankie beats McGregor, he fights Frankie for the belt again?
brendan schaub
He fights for the belt no matter who has it.
joe rogan
Do you let a fight happen in between his fight?
Do you give him the time to recover?
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
Or do you put the belt aside, put it on hold, and say the belt does not get fought for until Aldo comes back?
brendan schaub
Well, that's what you're doing with Ronda.
joe rogan
It is what you're doing with Ronda.
It is.
Don't say you.
brendan schaub
No, I'm not saying you.
I'm saying Scrooge McDuck.
joe rogan
Right.
But that is how they look at it.
They look at it in terms of finances.
They think that if you look at Holly, Holly almost lost to Raquel Pennington in her pro debut.
Or UFC debut, rather.
She won a split decision to Raquel in a close fight.
Then she fought Marion Renu.
Is that who she fought?
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
joe rogan
Beat her, and beat her decisively, then just pulled out the fucking performance of a lifetime against a charging opponent, someone who really played into her strengths.
If you look at the aggression that Ronda had, none of the other fights that she had, no one was that aggressive chasing after her.
People were much more respectful of her striking ability.
But Ronda just charged right at her.
brendan schaub
She also didn't fight at a really high level.
joe rogan
Ronda didn't.
That's striking, no.
Not at all.
brendan schaub
They're all very amateur.
joe rogan
And if you look at, at least on paper, credential-wise, no one's as high-level as Hawley in MMA and in the women's division, other than Ioanniu Jacek and this new woman, Shwevchenko.
brendan schaub
It's a tough name, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's rough.
There was a couple tough ones on that card.
unidentified
Yeah, I saw that.
joe rogan
But Holly is like a 19-time, how many times did she win?
Nine-time World Boxing Champion.
Nine-time.
This chick's 17-time World Muay Thai Champion.
Then you've got Ioana Jacek, six-time World Muay Thai Champion.
brendan schaub
I just think, with Joe Zalto, what he's done for the sport, give him time off, let him heal, and then...
Let everything else figure itself out, make these huge fights, and then when Jose goes, alright, I'm ready, a year from now, you give him the title shot.
joe rogan
Hasn't everybody jumping?
No, that's what I was going to say.
eddie bravo
Have they made the decision already?
joe rogan
No.
eddie bravo
Didn't Dana say the winner of...
Wasn't there a quote that Dana said the winner of Cerrone Dos Anjos gets Conor?
joe rogan
I think what he said was that Conard could fight for the lightweight title next.
That could be a fight they do.
eddie bravo
Oh, he never guaranteed anybody anything.
joe rogan
But even if he does, they take it back.
Yeah, it doesn't matter.
Misha was guaranteed the title.
brendan schaub
She was pissed.
joe rogan
If she beat Jessica Ai.
She beats Jessica Ai and they're like, eh.
brendan schaub
Like, we're good.
Change of plans.
joe rogan
Yeah, they just changed it on her.
brendan schaub
It's tough, man.
joe rogan
Look, man.
brendan schaub
But, you know, Diaz did say...
eddie bravo
If you perform, they'll make it happen.
I think...
joe rogan
He might have been high as fuck when he said that.
brendan schaub
He said in an interview right after, he goes, Joe Silva guaranteed me I get Conor.
joe rogan
I'll tell you one thing that I... I gotta give props to Jeff Nowitzki, not just for what he's done to scare the fuck out of everybody and make them all get off the sauce, because he's definitely done that.
That's the word.
But also, he was outspoken about Nick Diaz, about Nick Diaz's suspension.
brendan schaub
He said it's not right.
joe rogan
He said it's bullshit.
Here, you got a guy who's the fucking USADA, USADA drug guy, and he's saying it's bullshit.
brendan schaub
And he's saying it's a bullshit decision.
And he's gone after some motherfuckers.
You're talking about Barry Bonds, Lance Armstrong, big cases.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Mary Jones.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
joe rogan
Yeah, he went after everybody.
eddie bravo
Do they test for weed and cycling?
joe rogan
Is there...
What'd you say?
eddie bravo
Do they test for weed and cycling?
joe rogan
I think they do.
You know, there was a study recently that showed that ultramarathoners benefit from weed.
I think they eat it.
I think they eat it and it helps them run more.
eddie bravo
Not all of them.
unidentified
Why do you say that?
joe rogan
Why do you say not all of them?
eddie bravo
Well, not all marathon runners smoke weed.
joe rogan
No, no, no, but the ones that do.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it benefits them.
joe rogan
You say not all of them means some guys eat weed and it doesn't do shit for them.
eddie bravo
They run off track or some shit.
joe rogan
They run off track or some shit.
unidentified
Joshua Tree's high as fuck running through the woods.
eddie bravo
It sounded like you said all marathon runners No, I said ultra.
brendan schaub
Ultra.
joe rogan
Ultra marathon runners?
Here it is.
The debate over running while hot.
For ultra marathon runners, marijuana has enormous benefits, but is it ethical?
What is this in, Jamie?
What's the Wall Street Journal?
Wall Street Journal is writing about it.
brendan schaub
Well, that's pretty legit.
joe rogan
Powerful Wall Street Journal.
unidentified
Whoa!
brendan schaub
I thought it was going to be some bullshit.
joe rogan
The world's changing, Eddie Bravo.
brendan schaub
Dude.
joe rogan
Since you first got me high 15 years ago, the world has changed radically.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Andy Bravo's the catalyst.
That's El Diablo right there.
unidentified
El Diablo right there.
joe rogan
He gave me the first joint.
We had an ice cream sundae, and I was never the same.
brendan schaub
Where's that devil dust, son?
joe rogan
That Colombian devil dust?
brendan schaub
I'm trying to get on that shit.
eddie bravo
Everybody thought I was the crazy stoner, man.
I was like, God, I gotta get Joe.
If I could get Joe fucking stoned, they won't think I'm crazy.
brendan schaub
They won't think I'm crazy.
eddie bravo
Yeah, that was...
brendan schaub
I mean, shit.
joe rogan
Well, there were so many misconceptions.
So many people have misconceptions.
To this day, they have misconceptions.
brendan schaub
It's the pothead culture that kind of fucked you.
joe rogan
Well, you know what it is, man?
There are some people that are just fucking lazy.
And the idea is that pot gets you lazy.
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
That's not true.
You know, I think it does the opposite, to me at least.
It depends who you are, yes.
But to me, it makes me paranoid of being lazy.
How about that?
I get high and I want to get things done.
I'm like, oh, I gotta clean my office.
brendan schaub
Some people get high and just don't move and eat Cheetos.
And then blame it on that.
joe rogan
I really believe those people would just do the same thing.
brendan schaub
Yeah, they're lazy no matter what.
joe rogan
I really do.
I really think there's a lot of people that are just lazy.
There's also a lot of people that are just not thinking right.
You don't enjoy rest unless you deserve it.
That's the reality of life.
If you're just fucking off your whole life, it's not as fun.
Like, rest is fun when you deserve it.
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
Like, it feels good to eat after you work out.
Like, if you lift and you fucking beat your ass in the gym, and then you go have a steak, oh, it's the most delicious food ever.
unidentified
The best.
joe rogan
But if you just have a steak, yeah, it's delicious, but you don't even know how good it is.
You don't know how good it is.
If you just pushed your body before you ate it, you would enjoy it so much more.
I mean, you might not be in the lifting or any kind of working out.
That might not be your thing.
But my point is that, like, if there's some things that you really need to do and you fuck off and you don't do them and you get laid, you're gonna hate yourself.
There's gonna be a part of you that knows you didn't do the shit you were supposed to do.
And if you fuck off and you get too lazy and don't accomplish things, you're not gonna enjoy the rest as much as you do when you do accomplish things.
Like, you talk about it.
Like, you get home from class.
You work all day, teach class, you get home and you watch Netflix.
It's a joy.
brendan schaub
Dude, I love...
I'm almost done with Breaking Bad.
unidentified
I always wait until a hundred people tell me, dude, you gotta see it.
eddie bravo
You haven't seen it?
Dude, you gotta...
It's the greatest show on TV, bro.
I gotta hear that a hundred times, and I'm like, cool.
I want it to be true.
I just need to hear it, because...
brendan schaub
I can't get into it.
I watched one.
eddie bravo
Breaking Bad?
brendan schaub
No, you gotta go back.
eddie bravo
It's good.
I watched the first one, too, and I didn't like the pilot too much.
brendan schaub
Me neither.
eddie bravo
But people kept saying, you gotta give it time.
unidentified
Really?
eddie bravo
Yeah, the characters, it's a great show.
joe rogan
I watched the whole first season when I was getting my right arm done.
When I was getting my right arm tattooed, I watched it all on iPad.
That's the best.
Getting tattooed while you're watching a good show, because you don't even notice it.
This annoying thing on my arm.
I look over, ooh.
eddie bravo
And I just started Walking Dead.
brendan schaub
Just started Walking Dead.
joe rogan
Oh, Walking Dead's good.
eddie bravo
You really liked it, right?
joe rogan
Oh, I love it.
Walking Dead?
eddie bravo
Oh, no, you haven't seen it.
brendan schaub
No, I've seen Walking Dead.
joe rogan
It's good.
It shits the bed for one season, though.
I'm going to tell you this right now, and I want to tell you when.
There's a part in time where I was like, these motherfuckers, I'm ready to leave this show.
And then they fired everybody, and they hired all the new writers, and they just...
brendan schaub
It's back.
joe rogan
Brought it back from the dead with a vengeance.
brendan schaub
Completely redeemed themselves.
joe rogan
Yeah, it hit a rough spot.
brendan schaub
Did you see Narcos?
joe rogan
But they recognized it.
eddie bravo
Of course.
joe rogan
No, I haven't seen Narcos.
brendan schaub
God damn it.
Are you kidding me?
eddie bravo
It's going to be hard to watch TV after it.
brendan schaub
No, seriously.
joe rogan
It's the greatest shit.
I'm in the middle of this fucking President show, though.
I'm in the middle of House of Cards right now.
eddie bravo
Okay, I'll jump on that.
joe rogan
Dude, one and a half, actually.
I watched it on the plane.
American Airlines, they got the little screen thing in front of you.
They had Netflix on it.
eddie bravo
TV's back.
We're all excited about TV, man.
About 10 years ago, we said, TV sucks!
joe rogan
You know what brought it in?
HBO and the internet.
Uncensored.
That's what made it back.
unidentified
Correct.
joe rogan
And even when you're watching those shows like Breaking Bad, it's cable.
They can say things you can never say on network.
brendan schaub
And show things, yeah.
joe rogan
They can't say everything, but they can get close.
Like Walking Dead.
They get close.
They could get away with way more, but they still have commercials.
Like, commercials fuck everything up.
brendan schaub
They're terrible.
joe rogan
You gotta watch it on Netflix or on Apple TV. I subscribe to those things.
brendan schaub
Oh, hell yeah.
Apple TV, man.
eddie bravo
That's the shit.
joe rogan
The best.
brendan schaub
I need a new show, man.
I need one.
eddie bravo
We're all excited about shows.
joe rogan
I'm telling you.
eddie bravo
TV's good again.
unidentified
Fuck.
joe rogan
House of Cards.
One episode.
Ten minutes into the first episode, I was like, oh, yeah.
It's good.
unidentified
I need that shit.
eddie bravo
I gave up on The Last Man on Earth, man.
joe rogan
I heard it sucks.
brendan schaub
I got to like a season and a half.
eddie bravo
I'm like, fuck.
I can't do it no more.
joe rogan
I heard it started off really good.
eddie bravo
Yeah.
You know, the performance, the head guy, he's fucking brilliant.
brendan schaub
He's so funny?
eddie bravo
He's so good.
But he's so good at annoying you.
You hate that character so much that you end up hating the show because you hate him so much.
joe rogan
Wow.
brendan schaub
Damn.
unidentified
He plays the biggest douchebag ever.
eddie bravo
He's the last man on earth.
brendan schaub
He's the guy from Saturday Night Live, right?
eddie bravo
I don't know if he's in Saturday Night Live, but he did Tim and Eric stuff.
joe rogan
Oh shit, you know what else is really good?
The new Bob and Dave show.
The guys who did Mr. Show with Bob and Dave.
Bob and Dave?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bob Odenkirk and Dave Cross.
Yeah.
The new one is fucking hilarious.
It's really good.
I watched one episode of that.
That's another Netflix show.
brendan schaub
I was balls deep in The Wire for a while.
Did you watch The Wire?
joe rogan
I watched one episode.
I never got into it.
eddie bravo
The Wire?
joe rogan
I know.
It's supposed to be awesome.
I think I went into the second episode, but it was years ago.
brendan schaub
People keep saying The Wire, too.
They keep saying that.
joe rogan
That's on the back burner.
brendan schaub
I know.
joe rogan
I need to.
Jamie's nodding.
I know.
brendan schaub
Legit as fuck.
joe rogan
I know.
I need to.
But I need to watch all these goddamn documentaries, too.
Everybody's always telling me.
brendan schaub
That's my favorite thing, documentaries.
joe rogan
There's so many documentaries out there.
brendan schaub
I need a good one.
People tweet me a good documentary, please.
joe rogan
Oh, you're gonna get overwhelmed.
Well, I'll just take- Prepare for the fucking cavalcade of chemtrail documentaries.
brendan schaub
No, no, I'm not into that.
I don't need conspiracy theories.
unidentified
I need some legit shit.
joe rogan
Your phone right now.
Let me ask you this heavyweight.
Where do you put Alistair over him now?
He just knocked the fuck out Junior Dos Santos.
brendan schaub
Against the number two guy.
joe rogan
Not only that, he's the first guy to ever fight Junior and not take any damage.
brendan schaub
He took zero damage.
joe rogan
Who the fuck else has ever fought Junior Dos Santos and not taken any damage?
brendan schaub
He had great footwork.
Dude!
Very smart.
joe rogan
They avoided each other for sure.
He's not stupid.
He baited him in.
brendan schaub
He baited him in.
joe rogan
He started opening up in that second round.
brendan schaub
People were booing, but you try fighting a knockout artist with the smallest margin of error.
You dodged left instead of right, the night's over.
So when I see that, I'm like, I get it.
They're just trying to get a vibe here.
And people are booing.
I'm like, no, just fucking wait for it.
joe rogan
Not only that, but Junior is like...
Taking his time, too.
And he's just balled up looking to uncork bombs.
brendan schaub
It's respect.
joe rogan
Yeah, and when Junior's throwing, those punches are...
They're whizzing by.
brendan schaub
Oh, they're night-enders.
joe rogan
They all have death on them.
brendan schaub
There's no feeling out with those two.
So I respect that first round.
And then the second round, I mean, that left hook was from fucking Mars.
joe rogan
He opened up with a bunch of shit in that second round.
First of all, he started off orthodox, and he started killing that front leg.
He hit him with some zippers.
brendan schaub
He's a free agent, though.
He's a free agent.
joe rogan
Alistair is?
Yes.
Ooh, that's big.
And then that body shot, oh my god, he kept hitting him.
He was switching stances real good, and he was constantly moving, and he said to me after the fight, first thing he said is that Wim Hof breathing stuff works.
unidentified
Goddamn.
joe rogan
We were talking about it before I did the interview with him, and he goes, that Wim Hof stuff works.
unidentified
That's dope.
joe rogan
He wants to do the podcast.
I've got to get him on the podcast.
He'd be brilliant.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that'd be great.
joe rogan
You want to talk about a guy who's been stopped a lot.
A lot.
I mean, it's amazing.
brendan schaub
He's had a lot of losses.
joe rogan
As far as he's gotten, if you go back and watch kickboxing and then Strikeforce, or not Strikeforce, he didn't get stopped in Strikeforce.
K-1, Pride.
He got stopped in Pride.
I mean, if you look at the stoppage losses that he got in K-1 and in Pride, in Strikeforce he was the champ.
He never lost in Strikeforce, I believe.
He beat Verdum in Strikeforce.
unidentified
He fucked up Brett Rogers.
joe rogan
Fucked up.
That was when he was the Ubering.
unidentified
Oh my God.
joe rogan
He was a totally different animal.
brendan schaub
Threw Brett Rogers to the ground?
joe rogan
Oh my god.
He kicked Brett Rogers in the beginning of the first round with a right leg kick.
When you see the look on Brett Rogers' face, he just realizes, oh shit.
It was just a completely different level of striker than he'd ever faced.
Because he had beaten Orlovsky, but he caught Orlovsky like nervous and tentative.
Orlovsky was standing in front of him and it scared Orlovsky.
You know, Arlowski had this period of time where he was in a rut before he went with Jackson and Winklejohn.
brendan schaub
When he was getting knocked out?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He was training with Freddie Roach?
joe rogan
He was in a rut.
He was in Chicago.
He wasn't training with Jackson and Winklejohn down in Albuquerque.
And then they took him on.
And he even had a big loss when they took him on.
Karatanov.
Sergei Karatanov.
brendan schaub
That's a tough fight, especially at the time when he fought him.
joe rogan
Karatanov was on fire.
unidentified
Karatanov was on fire.
joe rogan
He was on fire.
brendan schaub
Knocked him out.
What's the latest with him?
Arlowski?
unidentified
He's killing it.
brendan schaub
He's fighting Stipe.
unidentified
He's killing it.
brendan schaub
No, no, no, Karatanov.
joe rogan
Karatanov?
unidentified
Oh.
joe rogan
Karatov did something.
I'd like to point out that that was Brandon Schaub's voice, not Eddie Bravo's.
brendan schaub
I'm not UFC employee, motherfucker!
joe rogan
I don't know.
I think he fought in glory, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah, he fought in glory.
joe rogan
I don't know what he's doing these days.
He did some kickboxing for a while.
I think he had a back injury, too, that set him back a bit.
I don't know what he's doing these days.
brendan schaub
Tearing yellow book pages or some shit.
He's just a man's man.
joe rogan
How about Fedor's opponent just gets announced like a day ago?
brendan schaub
The worst market of all time.
joe rogan
When did that get announced?
brendan schaub
He's irrelevant now.
I don't give a fuck who he fights.
joe rogan
He's fighting that kickboxing, that Indian kickboxing guy.
brendan schaub
People thought it was a joke when they announced it.
joe rogan
Oh, no, they did.
brendan schaub
Like, there's no way.
Nah, man.
joe rogan
There's no one available.
There's no one available.
brendan schaub
It's silly.
joe rogan
What if they made the Overeem versus Fedor fight?
Sergei Karotanov.
I'm currently negotiating with UFC, Bellator, and Glory.
unidentified
Posted today.
joe rogan
Oh, today.
brendan schaub
Thicker than a Snickers on that picture.
joe rogan
Yeah, it looks like you've been eating a lot of sausages.
eddie bravo
He looks scary as fuck.
joe rogan
He's dangerous.
brendan schaub
He's a motherfucker.
Barnett fucked him up, though.
Yeah, he did.
Barnett fucked him up.
joe rogan
Barnett got him down and fucked him up.
But you know what I remember, man?
I remember him holding Semmy Schilt down and hammer fisting him in his eyeball.
Remember that?
And Semmy Schilt is screaming.
He's hammer fisting the same eyeball that he's fucking up.
And he's like mounting them.
He's like mounting them high on the chest.
Because Semi wasn't like the best grappler in the world.
He was just nasty kickboxer.
eddie bravo
He had great wrist control.
He would have dudes that would mount them and he would just hold their wrists.
He was so long and he would punch back.
He would strike off his back.
Pete Williams had him in the mount.
He couldn't do shit to him, and he survived.
The round ended.
Next round, Sammy Shaw throws some front kicks.
We've never seen that before.
joe rogan
Front kicks to the body.
eddie bravo
He threw right to the body.
Boom.
And we thought, it's because he's seven foot tall.
Nobody...
brendan schaub
You know, with normal legs can get away with shit like that.
joe rogan
Once they started learning it, it's crazy how that's taken off.
The earliest ever kick that you learn in traditional martial arts is like one of the most recent kicks that people are successful with.
eddie bravo
That's crazy.
No one was throwing it.
joe rogan
There was a video just a few years ago of you and I in my garage.
You were asking me about front kicks.
unidentified
Will someone ever throw up?
eddie bravo
That was the question.
Will someone ever throw that Bruce Lee kick like that to the pool?
joe rogan
And that was, my thought was like, man, you gotta time it perfect.
unidentified
To the jaw.
To the jaw.
brendan schaub
And then Anderson Silva.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
And everyone downloaded that data.
joe rogan
That slow motion of Vitor's head snapping back from that front kick and his legs buckling.
And him going down, Anderson beating on him.
brendan schaub
It's a very popular fight now.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
brendan schaub
Who's Anderson?
Because Vitor doesn't want to fight him.
He's not going to fight him.
joe rogan
Vitor won't fight him, and Rockhold is calling out Vitor, which is very fascinating.
Because what do you do there?
Here's a good question.
Do you have a rematch with Weidman, or do you have him fight Yoel before Yoel turns 50?
brendan schaub
No.
unidentified
Yoel is 63 years old.
joe rogan
If he's gonna fight for the title.
brendan schaub
It has to be like now, like tomorrow.
joe rogan
No bullshit, he's 38. Like, at what point in time?
I mean, if he's clean.
brendan schaub
He didn't do enough for me to earn that title shot.
I think Weidman-Rockhold 2 is the fight, 100%.
That's the fucking fight.
Because if Weidman didn't throw that...
Terrible spinning heel kick with a fuck that was.
You don't throw that, we got a different fight on our hands.
joe rogan
Yeah, people give me a hard time about the difference between saying turning side kick and spinning back kick.
You're totally right.
I say spinning back kick because that's what everybody calls it.
But the real spinning back kick is like a donkey kick.
It's like heel up.
I always call a turning side kick a spinning back kick.
Or sometimes people throw it like a spinning side kick.
The difference between, people also give me a hard time about the wheel kick spinning hook kick, like I had a conversation with this dude about it online, but that's the same kick.
The difference between a hook kick and a wheel kick is like the difference between a long left hook and a short left hook.
It's the same kick.
You're spinning, you're using the heel, but there's two different types of wheel kicks.
There's a wheel kick that's like with the leg is bent, and then there's a stiff leg wheel kick.
brendan schaub
Dos Santos threw it and missed, right?
joe rogan
No, he landed it on Hunt, but he kind of caffed him.
brendan schaub
He tried it against over him, if you remember, but he missed.
joe rogan
You're right, he missed it.
But the stiff leg wheel kick is very rare.
You have to have a sucker.
You have to have a guy who's really standing in front of you, but it's so powerful.
You've seen me throw a stiff leg one on the back.
brendan schaub
But they happen.
joe rogan
Stiff leg one's rare.
Usually it's a bent one.
Like the one with Terry Edom and...
What does Edson Barbosa throw?
brendan schaub
That's what I said.
joe rogan
He throws the wheel kick.
It's a bent leg.
brendan schaub
That's a wheel kick.
joe rogan
Here's what happens.
It's bent up until like The point of contact and then it sort of snaps out.
The stiff leg one, like you've seen me throw it on a bag.
Your leg becomes stiff way earlier.
It's way earlier.
Your leg gets stiff like halfway in.
Again, this is like big-time technicalities.
They're basically the same kick.
But the back kick and the turning side kick, they are different.
Like Chuck Liddell throws the back kick.
He would throw it, he's like throwing it on bags, shows people holding the pad for it, and he'll throw it.
And so he throws it like donkey kick style, like the heel is up, toes are down.
The way Barboza throws it, he throws it spinning side kick or turning side kick, where the foot is flat and the heel and the toes are parallel to the floor.
brendan schaub
Nasty.
joe rogan
It's nasty.
brendan schaub
To answer your question about Overeem, though, you can make a good argument that he deserves a title shot.
He's won four of his last five.
He's marketable as fuck.
joe rogan
But Ben Rothwell knocked him out just a couple of fights ago, and he's unbeaten, too.
brendan schaub
But Ben Rothwell fights Barnett.
joe rogan
Yes, he fights Barnett, and maybe the winner of that fight, then they decide.
Because Barnett versus Ben Rothwell is in New Jersey in January, right?
brendan schaub
What about Stipe Arlowski?
joe rogan
That's a very good point.
brendan schaub
What do you do with Arlowski if he wins that fight?
joe rogan
Well, Stipe went to war with Junior, right?
Fought five hard rounds, went to war, lost a real close fight, but got dropped and legitimately lost.
brendan schaub
He's ranked ahead of Junior now, by the way.
joe rogan
I don't know about that.
brendan schaub
That doesn't make any sense.
So it goes Kane 1, right?
Verdum's champ.
Kane's 1. Orlowski's 2. Stipe's 3. I forget who 4 is.
joe rogan
That doesn't make any sense to me.
I think if Junior beat him, Junior should be ahead of him.
Even if Junior just got knocked out by Alistair.
brendan schaub
Alistair's ranked behind Junior now.
joe rogan
Okay, that's insane.
That's insane.
Those ratings are fucking bananas.
brendan schaub
Isn't it funny?
joe rogan
No, here's even worse than this.
When Conor McGregor knocked out Aldo, there's a Brazilian judge or writer or whatever the fuck, journalist, whoever gets to vote on these things, that voted Conor down four spaces on the pound for pound.
brendan schaub
That's why these things are a joke.
joe rogan
But that makes that guy...
He is no longer credible.
You cannot have that guy vote anymore.
That's a disgrace.
eddie bravo
It's got to be old, because if you go back, it has Overeem under Dos Santos.
joe rogan
No, it's current.
This is current.
Even though he just knocked out Dos Santos, he's still ranked below him.
brendan schaub
Holy home is ranked below Ronda.
unidentified
That doesn't make any sense.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
She knocked Rhonda.
eddie bravo
That's automatic.
That's automatic.
brendan schaub
This is old.
joe rogan
How the fuck does that mean?
No, no, Eddie, that's not automatic.
brendan schaub
This is updated, man.
joe rogan
Do you understand?
They have some goofy system of how they do this thing, and there's a bunch of dummies out there that somehow or another think Rhonda should be ranked above Holly after Holly knocked her out because Rhonda's beaten so many people.
That's insanity.
brendan schaub
These same silly hoes wait for us to do these podcasts so they can talk shit about us.
joe rogan
Well, this is clearly the most nutty thing ever.
If you look at the heavyweight division, Jamie, scroll down for the heavyweight division, please.
eddie bravo
Who do you got on the rematch?
joe rogan
Hold on a second.
Let's go over this real quick.
Look at this.
Cain Velasquez makes sense, of course.
He was the champion.
He lost to Fabricio.
He's beaten everybody else, right?
That makes sense.
He's the champ.
Arlovsky, he's done really well, but...
Number two, boy, that's a tough sell.
That's a tough sell when you look at the difference between the guys he's beaten and then you look at the guys that Alistair's beaten.
If you look at Alistair just beating Junior, I think you've got to put him right up there with Arlovsky.
brendan schaub
Alistair lost to Travis Brown.
Arlovsky beat Travis Brown.
joe rogan
That's true.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
brendan schaub
Junior beat Stipe.
It's fucking weird.
joe rogan
It's tough because Junior and Arlovsky never fought.
That's a great fight.
That would be a great fight.
brendan schaub
That's the fight that's going to happen if Andre loses.
joe rogan
If Andre loses.
100%.
Boy, who knows what's going to happen with Junior now, though.
When Junior gets KO'd like that, you've got to take some time off, right?
brendan schaub
He's never been the same.
To me, after the Kane fights, it took too much out of him.
joe rogan
See, I look at the fight with Orlovsky and you.
That's a super close fight.
That was so close.
That was anybody's fight.
Anybody could have won that fight.
brendan schaub
Most people say Shob won.
When I mean most people, I mean everyone.
joe rogan
And then Orlovsky's last fight against Frank Mir.
That was another, like...
brendan schaub
He knocked out, remember, after me, he knocked out Bigfoot.
joe rogan
Travis Brown.
brendan schaub
He knocked out Bigfoot.
joe rogan
Which was beautiful.
brendan schaub
Frank Mir, Travis Brown.
Nice fighting Stipe.
joe rogan
We didn't knock out Frank Mir.
Him and Frank Muir had that really boring fight.
brendan schaub
And they're like, let's do it again!
Absolutely not, sir.
joe rogan
So that's two fights that he had that were really slow to pull the trigger, not much happens.
Travis just went after him, and he went after Travis, and I think a lot of that might have been familiarity, because both those guys knew each other really well from the gym, from training together.
And the word was that Arlovsky would get the better of Travis in sparring.
When there's nothing on the line, it's all just skills, right?
When you're just in the cage, you're training together, there's no pressure, there's no media, there's no nothing, then you just see skills.
Arlovsky has some vicious fucking striking skills.
Like if you go back to just skills, you go back to his early fights and you watch his knockouts when he was the UFC heavyweight champion, Fuck, dude.
Dude, his right hand was a piston.
There was no fat to it.
He would just uncork that motherfucker on dudes and just sleep them.
brendan schaub
I think the reason, A, why my fight in Orlowski's was so boring is we trained a lot together, too.
And they were, I mean, if judges are scoring, it was the same fight.
It was very, like, super close.
So we knew each other.
So we were both so nervous when we fought.
Because when you're going in, you're like, fuck!
joe rogan
Anything can happen.
Fuck!
brendan schaub
This fight's gonna be tough.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Yeah, and Arlovsky, knowing that he had that advantage over Travis Brown from training, looked real confident in that fight, too.
He looked real relaxed in that fight.
What a fucking crazy slugfest that was.
The Travis Brown-Arlovsky fight might have been one of the greatest first rounds or one-rounders ever in the history of the heavyweight division.
brendan schaub
I agree, especially where they're ranked.
And now you got Brown vs.
Mitrione.
That's a motherfucker for a fight.
joe rogan
Travis Brown's fight in Mitrione?
brendan schaub
In Boston, son.
On TJ and your boy Cruz's card.
joe rogan
Whoa, that's right.
brendan schaub
Brace yourself.
That's a good fight.
A lot of people are overlooking that.
unidentified
It's a great fight.
Why did I feel like Mitrione was fighting somebody else?
joe rogan
That's a great fight.
brendan schaub
That's a stand-up war.
joe rogan
You know what else is a great fight that's happening in New Jersey?
Roy Nelson.
Roy Nelson.
No, I'm sorry.
Josh Barnett and Big Ben Rothwell.
brendan schaub
That's a great fight.
joe rogan
That's a great fight.
brendan schaub
Of veterans.
joe rogan
Especially after Josh Barnett looked so good against Roy.
He looked fantastic against Roy.
brendan schaub
He looked amazing.
Although he got taken down a bunch.
joe rogan
So what?
Nothing happened.
brendan schaub
You know you got Roy versus Jared Rochelt.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's a good fight too.
brendan schaub
It's not really a blockbuster.
I'm just saying you got it, though.
joe rogan
Well, Rochard's got a, you know, he's got a minus P's and Q's against Roy.
Yeah, he's going to be in front of Roy.
brendan schaub
He's been knocked out before.
joe rogan
Yeah, and he's going to be in front of Roy.
You know, he's not, like, going to be Alistair Overeem-ing it.
The way Overeem fought Roy, he got knocked down, too.
Remember that?
eddie bravo
He's a very good wrestler, and he could put, he might, we might see Roy Nelson on his back a lot.
joe rogan
You're right.
You're right.
We might.
brendan schaub
That's his game plan, 100%.
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's a really good point, man.
eddie bravo
High level wrestling right there.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that fight's not gonna break any records as far as style points.
I can promise you that.
Unless Roy just knocks him to fucking next week.
joe rogan
Did you see that fucking new dude, Nganou?
The French guy?
unidentified
Yes!
brendan schaub
Bodied up!
Was that DJ from Street Fighter?
He was bodied up, son.
joe rogan
Dude, that guy is fucking big.
He got on the scale, and all I could look at is the size of his feet.
I was like, this guy's got canoes.
He's got canoes under his ankles.
brendan schaub
He's a fucking monster.
joe rogan
He hits hard, too.
But he got taken down off of a kick, but the dude who took him down couldn't do anything with him, and then he got back up and just boxed him up, man.
Nasty power.
brendan schaub
Him and that DJ... Is it DJ Lewis?
The Beast?
Him and DJ need to fight some black-on-black crime.
joe rogan
Oh, the boxer?
brendan schaub
No, no, the Beast.
You know the Lewis who knocked out...
joe rogan
Oh, I know who you're talking about.
unidentified
Remember?
brendan schaub
He was, like, beating his chest.
And then called out Mitrione, and Mitrione's like, huh?
And knocked him out in like 30 seconds.
joe rogan
Derek Lewis, right?
unidentified
Yes!
brendan schaub
Derek Lewis.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
A little black-on-black crime.
joe rogan
Yeah, but this dude, Nganou, is a nasty striker.
brendan schaub
That boy's bodied up.
joe rogan
He's also really good, man.
His striking is fucking strong.
I really enjoyed watching his striking.
I was like, ooh, this guy with a few fights under his belt?
brendan schaub
How's his ground game?
joe rogan
Well, he had good defense.
brendan schaub
Being French.
joe rogan
He got taken down.
You're right.
He got taken down and he got controlled on the ground, but not much happened to him there.
And once he got up, good Lord.
He hit that dude with a left uppercut that just shut the lights out.
It came right through the arms, too.
Right through the guard.
Like, right up the middle.
brendan schaub
There's a better uppercut over the weekend, not to change subjects, but did you see Ortiz versus Jennings in the heavyweight bout?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yes, I did.
brendan schaub
Jennings has never been knocked down.
Ortiz's uppercut was fucking filthy.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's nasty, man.
brendan schaub
He's a 36-year-old Cuban.
No one wants to fight.
Southpaw.
Everyone's like, what the fuck?
And they couldn't believe Jennings took the fight because he has over like 350 amateur fights.
joe rogan
Well, Jennings, he fought Klitschko.
brendan schaub
To a decision.
joe rogan
Yeah, and had a real good fight with him.
And, you know, he's got to take that fight because this is a fight that if he beats this dude, it sets him right back up.
brendan schaub
The only thing is, they're saying with Ortiz, like, no one really knows him.
He's super dangerous.
Southpaw, 350 amateur flights.
Just this monster in Cuba.
joe rogan
The technique.
So clean.
brendan schaub
He is fucking nasty, man.
unidentified
So good.
brendan schaub
He's older, so it's time to get going.
joe rogan
Yeah, well, that's what I feel about Yoel Romero.
But Yoel Romero, is there a guy alive built better than that man?
I mean, if Mr. Universe was real...
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
Like, if it wasn't some freak who just shoots D-ball into his dick hole until his fucking neck explodes, if it was actually, like, what's, like, the best-looking body for an athlete, it's Yoel Romero.
brendan schaub
Or Woodley.
Woodley's right up there.
joe rogan
He's right there.
He's right there.
Yoel Romero's weirder, though.
He's weirder, because Woodley, it almost makes sense.
It seems like he's really well built, but it all makes sense.
brendan schaub
Romero looks like an action hero.
He doesn't look real.
joe rogan
First of all, he's got all this extra neck and shoulder muscle.
brendan schaub
He looks like a ninja turtle.
joe rogan
It's all built up like a shell.
brendan schaub
Yeah, like a ninja turtle.
joe rogan
And then his waist is that small, and his abs are just retarded.
They don't even make sense.
unidentified
Boom!
joe rogan
Yeah, it's like if you saw him in a comic book, you'd be like, why don't they make more realistic representations of men?
Why are you holding men up to these unrealistic images?
You're fucking with our body images.
You're ruining men.
brendan schaub
You guys are so racist.
joe rogan
How's that racist?
brendan schaub
He looks like those action figures that you got as a kid.
joe rogan
He looks just like a fucking freak.
How's that racist?
brendan schaub
I don't think he gets the title shot, though.
The fight was too boring.
They should make them fight again.
joe rogan
He fought sick.
Apparently he had the flu.
That's what they were saying.
They were saying he was sick right up until...
brendan schaub
Well, Brockhold's foot was about to fall off and he still did work.
joe rogan
He had staff.
brendan schaub
Yes.
Horrible staff.
joe rogan
And he won by stoppage.
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
So, the rematch, if you are Joe Sova...
unidentified
From Scrooge?
joe rogan
Well, you're either one.
unidentified
Okay.
joe rogan
Whoever makes the calls.
brendan schaub
I gotta be Scrooge to make the calls.
joe rogan
Okay, if you're Scrooge, what do you think?
I don't ask.
brendan schaub
Weidman, Rockhold 2. I could see that.
Easy.
That's easy.
Everything else doesn't make sense and is in a big fight.
joe rogan
The only thing I would like to see Yoel Romero fight for the title because of his age.
I feel like he's so good.
He's so good and he doesn't have much time left at that level.
When you're that level and also he relies on speed and athleticism.
You're not talking about a Bernard Hopkins.
That's like this super crafty technician.
brendan schaub
Because once that goes.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Bernard, like, the perfect example of the difference between Bernard and, like, say Roy Jones Jr. Like, Roy Jones Jr. was athleticism and speed and all this crazy power and technique.
But he wasn't like the classically trained boxer like Bernard was.
So he beat Bernard early in his career.
But then when they fought late in the career, Bernard was older than him by several years.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
And...
And Bernard beat him.
Bernard just outboxed him.
Just fought with better technique.
When Roy's speed and power was all gone and his chin wasn't the same.
Did you see him just get knocked out last week?
brendan schaub
He fought again?
joe rogan
Dude, he got knocked dead.
He got knocked dead in Russia.
brendan schaub
Fourth round.
Do we have a video of that?
There's like 18 people in the crowd.
joe rogan
Oh, man.
No, no, he's popular in Russia.
unidentified
Wait a minute.
How old is he?
joe rogan
He fought a cruiserweight contender.
That's the problem.
brendan schaub
How old is he?
joe rogan
195. Fought a 195. He was the champion.
He's a champion at 175. And then, of course, he went up to heavyweight.
He fought John Ruiz.
Won the heavyweight title.
eddie bravo
Wasn't that 20 years ago?
joe rogan
A long time ago.
He's 46, I think.
eddie bravo
That's not that old.
joe rogan
No.
brendan schaub
That is old.
joe rogan
Well, it's old.
brendan schaub
He's still fighting, son!
joe rogan
46-year-old Roy Jones Jr. knocked out in first bout as a Russian citizen.
That's so rough.
They had to throw a Russian citizen there.
Note the red, white, and blue theme of bloodyelbow.com.
eddie bravo
What if they paid him?
joe rogan
I mean, he's red, white, and blue.
It's like that statement along with their color layout.
It's just coincidental, but it's almost like, fuck you, you fucking traitor.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
unidentified
It's just weird.
brendan schaub
It's a bummer to see him get knocked out.
eddie bravo
What if they paid him to get knocked out?
joe rogan
No, no, no.
brendan schaub
Hell no.
You don't think they're not a legend like that?
eddie bravo
They would never do.
brendan schaub
He doesn't need money.
joe rogan
Well, no, it was a good fight up until he got tagged, dude.
I mean, it's real odd.
You want to see it?
eddie bravo
I would love to see.
joe rogan
Find the video.
brendan schaub
It's behind the air that fucks him.
joe rogan
Well, he first got dropped with an uppercut.
eddie bravo
Less than a round?
joe rogan
He fought a real good guy.
He fought a legit contender in the cruiserweight division.
And fighting a cruiserweight is like, you know, here it is.
The dude he fought is fucking good and the guy's long.
And it was a good fighter for a while, but like, look at Roy's body.
Like, what happened?
brendan schaub
He's 46, fucking time happened.
joe rogan
I know, but look, Bernard Hopkins is 49, and he doesn't have as wide oasis as Roy does.
That doesn't look like a man who's in shape.
brendan schaub
Wow.
joe rogan
He just doesn't look in good shape.
brendan schaub
He looks like an HBO commentator trying to fight a fucking monster.
joe rogan
I mean, he's still very smart, but this does not look good to me.
Like, it doesn't look like he's in the best shape.
Like, being 49 doesn't keep him from losing body fat, or 46. It doesn't help.
It doesn't help, but how come Bernard looks so much gooder?
brendan schaub
Bernard's a freak.
joe rogan
Did I just say gooder?
brendan schaub
You did.
I'll take it, though.
joe rogan
I meant better, but I was in the wrong syllables.
brendan schaub
Well, Bernard, genetically, is a freak.
joe rogan
Look at that nasty left hook to the body that dude just threw.
Meanwhile, I don't even know the dude's name.
brendan schaub
He gets knocked down.
He looks at the crowd like, nah, I'm good, man.
And the homeboy's like, nah.
joe rogan
Who remembers Kevin McBride?
Do you remember Kevin McBride?
brendan schaub
I don't.
joe rogan
He's the guy who retired Mike Tyson.
Nobody remembers him.
brendan schaub
God dang.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
We don't want to remember him.
joe rogan
Well, it's rough.
I mean, Tyson quit on a stool against this guy.
So Roy's still trying his same old tricks, like with that leaping left hook.
brendan schaub
But he's just unhappy.
joe rogan
Here comes the uppercut.
Dude gets him in the corner here.
What'd you do?
How dare you?
brendan schaub
Oh, there it is.
joe rogan
Boom.
brendan schaub
See, now watch when he gets to the crowd.
He still has the ego.
You gotta love it.
Look at him.
He's like, this dude, it's all good.
joe rogan
I don't think he's looking in the crowd.
I think he's like seeing 30 fucking light bulbs.
brendan schaub
He stuck his tongue out.
Like, it's all good, baby.
Yeah, he stuck his tongue out to the crowd.
joe rogan
Did he stick his tongue out or was he trying to put his mouthpiece back in?
brendan schaub
No.
Watch, he's smiling.
Look, he's smiling.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, you're right.
He stuck his tongue out.
But he might have been moving his jaw, too.
He might have been like this.
brendan schaub
He's talking to the ref.
He said, I'm fine.
He was licking butterflies.
joe rogan
But look at this.
brendan schaub
Yeah, this dude says, you ain't fine.
It's behind the air that fucks him, man.
joe rogan
Bing, bing, bing.
Look how he mixes his combinations, too.
Uppercut, and here's the right hand over the top.
unidentified
Boom!
brendan schaub
Behind the air.
Dink!
joe rogan
It's so hard to watch, man.
brendan schaub
It's a bummer, man.
joe rogan
It's hard to watch him get felled like that.
brendan schaub
It's like watching a guy get beat up.
joe rogan
And then the guy does the cross thing to make sure he doesn't die.
And he's like groaning and moving around while he's on his back.
brendan schaub
Super fucked up.
joe rogan
I don't like looking at his legs.
Like look at his legs.
Those are like soft, mushy legs.
You know what I'm saying?
Like when I think of a guy like Roy Jones Jr., I think of like sinewy, fast twitch muscle fiber.
I think of a guy in shape.
I'm looking at his legs and I'm like, that's a guy who's not in shape.
brendan schaub
He's one of the best boxers of all time.
joe rogan
Look at the definition.
Like, it's all missing.
Like, look at his body.
brendan schaub
But a lot of boxers, like George Foreman.
George Foreman, when he fought Muhammad Ali, was fucking jacked.
joe rogan
Right.
brendan schaub
And then he got super fat.
joe rogan
The difference is, George Foreman was a heavyweight.
And a heavyweight who gets fat is not giving up any weight.
You know?
I mean, George actually was 300 pounds.
But he was enormous.
Even when he was fat, he had enormous muscles.
What I'm looking at here is like a guy who looks like he's out of shape.
He just doesn't look at all like he's in shape.
brendan schaub
He looks like he's an analyst for HBO that jumped in there with a killer.
joe rogan
It's just...
brendan schaub
That's exactly what's going on.
joe rogan
You know what it is?
Look at this fucking uppercut.
Look at the look in this guy's face, too.
He's looking to murder.
Look at this.
unidentified
Oh!
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
unidentified
That right hand that put him away is terrifying.
joe rogan
Show that one more time.
Goddamn.
The way that looks in slow motion.
Look at this.
brendan schaub
Look at him, just a killer.
joe rogan
Look at his eyes, and he just uncorks the perfect right hand to the side of Roy's head and watches him drop.
It's the same story that plays itself out time and time and time again.
brendan schaub
That's fighters though, right?
They ground their shield, man.
Most guys, I mean, they don't become fighters because they don't enjoy this, you know?
joe rogan
But it's just so weird to watch.
It's so weird to watch it happen to Roy.
For whatever reason, like here, do me a favor and put on Roy Jones Jr. vs.
Virgil Hill.
Let's go back to the prime.
Go back to when he was the light heavyweight champion and he iced Virgil Hill with a right hand on his body.
brendan schaub
His highlight reel?
joe rogan
Yeah, go to the highlight reel.
brendan schaub
Go to his highlight.
joe rogan
Yeah, go to the Roy Jones highlight reel.
That's even better.
When they have his song?
Dude, this...
I mean, who the fuck was like this guy?
brendan schaub
He's the best of all time to me.
I love him.
He's my favorite.
joe rogan
My favorite to watch, for sure.
Right up there.
You know the only other guy that was one of my favorites to watch, but for a different reason?
Well, Roberto Duran, for sure.
But also, look at his speed.
brendan schaub
Look at his body, son!
Look at him dancing.
Robot.
joe rogan
He was amazing.
brendan schaub
But he also had a weird body.
joe rogan
He had giant bicep muscles.
His biceps were giant.
Jesus Christ, look at that left hook.
He was just so fast, but he relied on this.
Look at that.
Come on, son.
brendan schaub
Fast and powerful.
But once that goes away, it's not a fun game.
joe rogan
But look at his body.
unidentified
Boom!
joe rogan
Look at his body here and compare it to the body of the dude that we just watched get knocked out.
I mean, this is a fucking...
eddie bravo
Damn, look at his body there.
joe rogan
Yeah, dude.
brendan schaub
He was 46, bro.
joe rogan
I know.
I understand.
No, I mean, I'm not saying that, you know, he has some sort of...
eddie bravo
A work ethic problem.
joe rogan
I'm not saying it's a work ethic problem or anything like that.
I'm just saying it's just so fucked up to see.
brendan schaub
There's no way he could train the same.
joe rogan
No.
eddie bravo
At 46. The fight against Vinny Pazienza, they had a round where Vinny didn't land not one punch.
joe rogan
It was the only time ever in CompuBox history that the opponent didn't land a punch at all.
Dude, he was insane.
He would punch you and just be nowhere near you when you wanted to punch him back.
It was just on another level, speed and reflex-wise.
Completely different level than anybody ever.
brendan schaub
What is that white boy doing?
joe rogan
It's just so sad to see this guy become the guy that we just watched.
That's what happens though, right, Joe?
brendan schaub
If you keep fighting, this happens to everyone.
joe rogan
I guess, man.
brendan schaub
Who doesn't it happen to?
joe rogan
I don't understand why.
brendan schaub
Especially when you're famous as him.
You can fight whenever you want.
joe rogan
This is like when nobody knew who he was.
Dude, he was insane.
I was there for that fight.
I was there live for this fight.
brendan schaub
Really?
eddie bravo
Who's that?
joe rogan
I forget the dude's name.
He's like this light-skinned black dude.
I saw that dude fight somewhere else, too.
I saw that guy fight live in Mount Vernon, New York.
Or Mount Vernon or White Hill.
White Plains, rather.
One of these local boxing events.
I saw him fight, and I was like, wow, this guy's good.
And then I remember years later, he was fighting.
eddie bravo
Do you remember Juan Roldan?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, man.
eddie bravo
He fought him.
joe rogan
He fought Juan Roldan?
Wow, I can't remember that.
I thought, no, didn't Hagler fight him?
God, Juan Roldan.
He's one of those names like Mustafa Hamshow.
You gotta go, oh yeah.
eddie bravo
Oh, you know what?
Maybe it was, maybe it was, who'd you say, Marvin Hagler?
joe rogan
Yeah.
eddie bravo
I might be remembering.
joe rogan
I think it was.
I think it was, but I don't remember either.
I feel like Juan Roldan was from a different era.
See if Juan Roldan fought Marvin Hagler.
Look at Marvin Hagler's record.
brendan schaub
Such a monster, man.
eddie bravo
I thought he fought Roy Jones, but I could be wrong.
joe rogan
You might be right, though.
unidentified
I think early in Roy Jones' career, Juan Roldan was on his way out.
joe rogan
Oh, it's Marvin Hagler.
Marvin Hagler, yeah.
I think that was quite a few years earlier.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I think so, man.
eddie bravo
Now, check Roy Jones Jr., Juan Roldan.
joe rogan
No, it just keeps showing Juan Roldan versus Hagler and Hearns, different fights.
He fought Hearns, too, huh?
Thomas Hearns vs.
Juan Roldan.
Juan Roldan was a tough motherfucker.
So was Mustafa Hamsho.
There's a lot of tough guys.
brendan schaub
Boxing's good right now, man.
joe rogan
It's great right now.
brendan schaub
Boxing's phenomenal right now.
joe rogan
I saw this, uh, what is his name?
Walters?
Walters vs.
Sosa?
Bullshit decision though, man.
brendan schaub
Oh yeah, that was before Ortiz Jennings.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
Yeah, I mean boxing stuff, man.
That was a bad decision.
It was really bad.
brendan schaub
Terrible.
joe rogan
I was watching, I was like, this doesn't even make sense.
How the fuck did that happen?
brendan schaub
Even Max Kellerman was like, what the fuck are we doing?
eddie bravo
Where do you fit watching MMA in your schedule?
Like, where does it go?
How do you guys retain all this?
You must be watching these fights at least twice, right?
joe rogan
Depends on what the fights.
Like, obviously, I do it for a living.
Yeah, so you watch everything twice, right?
I watched the Cowboy Dos Anjos fight three times.
brendan schaub
Okay.
joe rogan
Yeah, I just wanted to watch it again because I'm just so impressed.
He's just such a destroyer.
The combination that he threw when he had Cowboy hurt up against the cage, nasty and tight.
No wild, stupid shit.
It was just controlled aggression, just super aggressive, super fast.
brendan schaub
Most guys you see get all wild because they're trying to finish it.
He stayed composed.
joe rogan
He beat the fuck out of them.
brendan schaub
And then you guys are on top of boxing, too.
joe rogan
Well, I watched this last night.
I came home last night and I watched that.
brendan schaub
I don't miss a fight, man.
I record everything.
joe rogan
I watch a lot of fights.
Kickboxing, I'm deep in.
That's my favorite shit.
My favorite shit is glory.
That's my favorite shit to watch right now.
brendan schaub
See, boxing's my favorite right now.
joe rogan
Really?
brendan schaub
More than MMA? No, no, no, no.
unidentified
Come on.
joe rogan
No, UFC's number one.
You scared me.
brendan schaub
What the fuck are you guys talking about?
joe rogan
MMA is 100% number one.
What's number two?
Of other shit, I should have clarified that.
Of other shit, glory is my favorite to watch.
brendan schaub
It's boxing.
Okay.
joe rogan
Rico Verhoeven, did you see his last fight?
unidentified
Yes.
brendan schaub
He's a monster.
joe rogan
Good lord.
Dude, he's a motherfucker.
He's a motherfucker, dude.
And for guys who like stand-up, only watching get mad when UFC fights go to the ground, watch Glory.
But watch that, man.
Those fucking fights are boring burners.
brendan schaub
They are good.
To me, there's just so many matches to make in boxing.
There's just so much good shit.
joe rogan
Yeah.
How about Terrence Crawford?
Watch that dude?
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
unidentified
Amazing.
joe rogan
Good lord, he's good.
Goddamn, that dude's good.
unidentified
Woo!
brendan schaub
Really good.
joe rogan
He's such a good adjuster, too.
He adjusts in fights and switches stances really well from orthodox to southpaw.
You see his last fight?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
As soon as he realized he switched southpaw and caught that dude with a right hook, he's like, oh, we're going to be fighting like this from now on, sir.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
Beat the fuck out of the dude.
brendan schaub
In Nebraska.
joe rogan
Yeah, close fight in the beginning of the first round until he found the rhythm and then figured it out.
Oh, I'll just switch stances up on this motherfucker.
brendan schaub
They thought he was going to get a mega fight next against Floyd or something.
joe rogan
They're all scared.
Nobody wants that.
brendan schaub
No one wants to fight him.
joe rogan
Fuck that.
Nobody knows who he is outside of Nebraska.
Everybody in Nebraska knows who he is.
A lot of hardcore boxing fans know who he is.
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
But like the average Joe on the street, the average person, they know who Floyd Mayweather is.
They know who Pacquiao is.
That's the next fight.
brendan schaub
Again?
joe rogan
I guarantee you.
I'm going to make a prediction.
This is my prediction.
In April, they're going to fight again.
I saw pictures of Manny Pacquiao.
He's back to training again.
Manny Pacquiao on his Instagram page today is hitting pads.
So he had a shoulder surgery.
They probably shot him up with the same shit they shot me up with.
He probably healed 50% quicker.
They fucking stem celled.
I know a lot of dudes are doing that now.
Ever since I... Got my stem cell shots and I started talking to him about it.
brendan schaub
You swear by it, huh?
joe rogan
A bunch of other people started talking to me about stem cells, too.
Yeah.
Look at Manny Pacquiao.
Shoulder surgery.
A few months ago, he's full blast power punching on pads.
He looks like Charles Manson.
Full blast power punching on pads now, man.
Come on.
unidentified
You're supposed to wait like a year Probably juiced fake photo.
joe rogan
They probably whacked them with the secret sauce About a big man listen, they don't know this ain't the UFC bitch ain't no drug testing son not in between That's one of the beautiful things about these guys too.
Oh In between camp, like if they get injured, that's what steroids are for.
brendan schaub
Boom.
joe rogan
It's what they're for.
They're supposed to get you back out there quicker.
For a football player or any sort of an athlete in another sport that doesn't get tested outside of seasons, you're supposed to do steroids.
Look at it, he's back!
He's got a little tiny baby scar, too.
They give you little baby scars.
That's a painting.
brendan schaub
That's a lot of filters.
That's Photoshop, bro.
joe rogan
That's Photoshop, bro.
I can put my head on that.
They're going to put Eddie Bravo's head on that tonight.
brendan schaub
I guarantee it.
joe rogan
Especially when you have that goatee.
brendan schaub
Good luck, honeydicking the fans into Floyd Manning 2. Dude, it's going to happen.
joe rogan
This is my prediction.
I may be wrong.
I'm wrong about a lot of shit.
But here's my prediction.
They're going to open up that new arena in April.
The new arena in Vegas.
The big one.
And in April, they're going to have Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, dos.
brendan schaub
Shit, I like it.
joe rogan
I'll bite the fuck out of it.
I think Floyd Mayweather starts talking.
It's right now.
It's December.
I think he starts talking somewhere around January, the end of January.
Ooh, I like where your head's at.
Starts saying, you know what, I'm thinking about coming back.
And then he honeydicks Terrence Crawford and Canelo Alvarez and everybody else.
Honeydicks all, because Canelo Alvarez looked good.
He looked good against Miguel Cotto.
brendan schaub
He looked good.
joe rogan
He looked good.
I thought he looked real good.
Cotto's a motherfucker, dude.
He's a crappy dude.
He's older.
He's older, but he's still very good.
I think then Manny Pacquiao, they start going over the fact that he got the shoulder surgery, and then they show him hitting the pads to get everybody to believe again.
He starts talking about Jesus.
benjamin jaffe
He starts doing the cross thing, and everybody's like, We're back in!
brendan schaub
We're back in!
joe rogan
He didn't have a chance the first time!
unidentified
Take my money!
joe rogan
The problem is, the first time he was injured...
brendan schaub
I'm that guy.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I'm that guy.
They can get me.
I watch one countdown show, I am in.
Take my $100.
joe rogan
You know what I like?
I like the ones with Max Kellerman where they sit him across the table and they make him talk to each other.
brendan schaub
Face-offs.
joe rogan
Those are my favorite.
And Max Kellerman says, like, he said that you are this.
Like, he said you have no chin.
How do you respond to that?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
And it's usually some dude speaking Spanish.
brendan schaub
And they're both sitting like A.C. Slater with a chair backwards staring at each other.
joe rogan
It's sick.
Those are great.
I love those.
Those are fun, man.
brendan schaub
The UFC needs to do something like that.
unidentified
Oof.
joe rogan
Well, that's the thing we're talking about, like Nate Diaz and Connor.
I think Eddie's got the best idea.
unidentified
No, that's true!
You can't market that!
joe rogan
Prison glass with a phone.
Eddie Bravo's got it right!
Prison glass with a phone or through...
eddie bravo
Ladies and gentlemen, Joey Hostin'.
brendan schaub
No, you got three giant dudes in between them.
joe rogan
It's not good enough.
It looks bad.
Nate Diaz might still sucker punch him.
brendan schaub
That's gonna hype the fight up even more.
Look at DC John Jones.
eddie bravo
Why are you against this, Brendan?
Why are you against this?
What about a cage?
How about just a cage?
brendan schaub
What do you like better?
joe rogan
I kinda like your prison glass even better than the cage.
eddie bravo
They'd be breaking the fucking phone and shit.
They'd have to have a bunch of them.
Maybe a bunch of booze.
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah.
eddie bravo
Or the cage.
Just put a fence up.
joe rogan
Do you really believe that Joe Silva told Nate Diaz that Conor McGregor is next?
Or do you think that Nate Diaz is being real smart and talking some shit and getting people excited about it?
brendan schaub
Joe Silva's a smart guy.
He knows damn well he doesn't have the power to make that fight.
He knows damn well.
unidentified
Motherfucking please.
brendan schaub
Dana goes, huh?
That's not the fight?
joe rogan
Yeah, right?
brendan schaub
Dana would probably text him.
Did you tell him that?
Joe goes, no, I didn't, sir.
joe rogan
What, what, what, what?
Ninja vs.
Ninja.
Diaz says UFC match.
Yeah, that's what we just said.
Yeah, I just don't...
I don't see him doing that.
I think Nate's being smart.
I think he's talking shit.
brendan schaub
I think it's great.
joe rogan
I think he's talking shit.
brendan schaub
You know who's not talking shit that should?
joe rogan
Who?
brendan schaub
Frankie Edgar.
joe rogan
He should be.
Oh, no, he did.
He said if you're scared, get a dog.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I saw that.
You gotta be relentless, though.
You know what I'm saying?
joe rogan
I know.
I guess.
brendan schaub
But it's not his style.
joe rogan
It's not his style.
brendan schaub
His fighting should speak for itself, but that's not the game plan now.
joe rogan
I feel like there's only one fight to make it featherweight.
There's only one fight.
It's 100% Frankie Edgar.
100%.
I couldn't be more emphatic about that.
But, fucking as a fan...
brendan schaub
That's what I'm saying.
joe rogan
As a fan, I don't mind this fucking Nate Diaz fight.
brendan schaub
I know.
And I love Frankie.
I want Frankie to get the shot.
joe rogan
I do too.
brendan schaub
I love Frankie.
joe rogan
If you're the king, what do you do?
You can make all the fucking calls.
brendan schaub
No, I'm Dana, I'm not Brendan.
joe rogan
I don't even mean you're not even Dana, because Dana has to talk to Lorenzo.
What if you're just the king?
You're the king.
What's the call?
brendan schaub
Oh man, I'm getting in trouble here.
But if I'm trying to sell the fight, I want as much money as possible, it's Diaz-Connor on a world tour.
If I'm a good man and I have morals, I make Frankie Edgar, Conor, and then the winner of that fights Jose when Jose gets healthy.
joe rogan
Here's the question, though.
Can they tell Conor who to fight now?
Or is Conor so meteoric?
Is he so out of control?
Is he so off the charts?
What if Conor says, I want to be a promoter?
What if Conor says he wants to go money team?
He wants to co-promote and do like croak park?
brendan schaub
He has the power.
joe rogan
He almost does.
brendan schaub
He does.
unidentified
Does he?
brendan schaub
80,000 Dublin?
What?
joe rogan
Oh, he can sell that out in about a minute.
brendan schaub
Literally a minute.
joe rogan
A minute.
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I know it sounds like Ron is nuts, but he's the first guy over to do this.
joe rogan
Everybody's going to fill in their credit card information, and then at the stroke of midnight, 1159, they're all going to press enter at the same time.
brendan schaub
Bro, I'm terrified.
joe rogan
And the computer's going to overload.
All the servers are going to crash.
brendan schaub
For reals, I'm terrified to fly because of ISIS. I'm fucking, I'm there buying it.
Front row.
Fucking what?
joe rogan
Oh, dude, you'd be my guest.
You'd have to come.
brendan schaub
It'd be amazing.
joe rogan
It'd be amazing.
brendan schaub
Connor has the power to, if they go, we want you to fight Dos Anjos, he goes, nah, I'm good.
eddie bravo
Notorious promotions.
joe rogan
I wonder.
eddie bravo
He's gonna have his own fight.
joe rogan
Notorious.
Notorious.
Look, man, I don't know.
brendan schaub
It's good for the sport.
eddie bravo
He wants this.
joe rogan
Here's what's crazy.
It's almost like he can't get any bigger.
So what happens now?
Does he just go parallel?
Does he just keep staying this big for a long period of time?
brendan schaub
Vin Diesel is fucking...
Satan of Hollywood going, come here.
I'm going to do final fucking Furious Fast 9. Come here.
Let's fuck your career.
joe rogan
And he's going to ruin it.
We're going to put you in fucking Transformer 13. Next thing you know, he's dating black chicks with big juicy asses and a lot of jewelry.
brendan schaub
That sounds awesome.
That sounds ideal.
joe rogan
And he's driving a Mustang off the top of a building.
That's a fucking crazy movie.
brendan schaub
Hopefully someone is in his ear telling the right stuff.
joe rogan
It's a fun time.
It's a fun time to be an MMA fan, that's for sure.
brendan schaub
Especially for Conor McGregor.
joe rogan
If I'm Scrooge McDuck, I'm the king of the world, I make the Frank Edgar fight.
At least I make an attempt to.
I don't know how much influence they have over him, but what I would say is, I would say...
Honestly, your future probably is at 155 pounds.
You struggle to make 145, but your legacy will be complete if you beat Frank.
brendan schaub
Okay, what if Conor goes, 145 is too tough for me.
joe rogan
I have to fight at 155. Abandon the 145 pound title and move up.
brendan schaub
And fight who?
joe rogan
Jose Aldo meets Frankie Edgar in a rematch for the title.
brendan schaub
I like that.
joe rogan
And then Nate Diaz.
Then you have Nate Diaz vs.
Conor.
His first fight at 55. If he gets past Nate Diaz, you'll 100% have him fight Dos Anjos.
brendan schaub
Correct.
joe rogan
Dos Anjos fights Habib Nurmagomedov in the meantime.
No!
Why not?
brendan schaub
He hasn't fought forever.
He's been injured.
joe rogan
That's true.
That's true.
brendan schaub
If anything, Tony Ferguson has an argument.
Don't forget about Tony.
unidentified
Tony Ferguson?
brendan schaub
Dos Anjos?
That's a motherfucker.
Yeah, that could easily happen.
joe rogan
He can get the title shot.
Especially after the Barboza fight?
brendan schaub
Fuck yeah!
joe rogan
That's true.
That's true.
It's ready.
They already made it.
Look at that.
brendan schaub
Damn, they are.
unidentified
Totally.
joe rogan
Photoshop dudes don't fuck around, man.
brendan schaub
Hell no, that's legit, too.
They're so good at it.
Dude, that was quick.
joe rogan
So quick.
brendan schaub
Did you do that, Jamie?
joe rogan
No.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
Fans don't fuck around.
Who did it?
joe rogan
Give the guy credit, whoever the guy was.
Find who the guy was.
brendan schaub
Oh, snap.
joe rogan
What's his name say?
Just Casual?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Just casually.
joe rogan
You can't have the titties on TV though.
Don't let the titties get on TV. Yeah, that's my message board.
brendan schaub
This guy's awesome.
joe rogan
My message board's filled with barbarians.
brendan schaub
Really?
joe rogan
They're animals.
unidentified
Barbarians.
joe rogan
In a good way.
Yeah.
What was I going to say?
Okay, so Tony Ferguson, you have fight Dos Anjos next.
Totally agree with that.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Great fight.
brendan schaub
Great matchup.
joe rogan
But for the money though, the real big money fight for Dos Anjos is obviously Conor.
But outside of Conor, who's the big money fight?
Habib, we don't even know when Habib's gonna be back, right?
brendan schaub
God, you can't say Pettis.
joe rogan
So do you have to give Habib a fight against a top guy before he gets a title shot?
brendan schaub
100% he has to fight again.
joe rogan
Okay, so if so, who do you give him?
brendan schaub
God, Tony Ferguson, because they're supposed to fight, right?
joe rogan
Who's Pettis fighting again?
Pettis is fighting someone really good.
brendan schaub
Eddie Alvarez.
joe rogan
That's on the Fox card.
No, the FS1 in Boston.
brendan schaub
Correct.
joe rogan
Wow.
brendan schaub
Ben Saunders, Patrick Cotex.
joe rogan
That's right.
brendan schaub
I'll be there.
joe rogan
Oh, you're going to be in Boston?
unidentified
Fuck yeah.
joe rogan
Powerful Boston.
brendan schaub
Yep.
joe rogan
I get there on Sunday.
brendan schaub
Dude, that's a motherfucker.
joe rogan
That's a weird weekend for me.
I'm not there for the weigh-ins.
I've got Atlanta, a theater in Atlanta, and then a theater in Tampa.
And then I fly into Boston.
brendan schaub
You know another fight that could sell like hotcakes at 55?
Conor and Pettis.
If Pettis gets by Alvarez.
joe rogan
Boy, that's a...
brendan schaub
That's another blockbuster.
There's so many blockbuster fights for him at 55. That's a good fight.
joe rogan
That's a good fight for Pettis versus...
Conor is a good fight as far as like styles and on paper and stuff.
I think that's a really good fight, but man It's a tough sell after Nurmagomedov or after Dos Anjos rather beat up Pettis.
Like Pettis has got to get a victory under his belt in order to fire him up.
unidentified
That's what I'm saying.
brendan schaub
I'm saying if Pettis beats Alvarez, like let's say he gets a head kick KO, then it's like oh shit.
joe rogan
Yeah, if he beats him like he beat Lozon or something like that.
brendan schaub
Yes, or Cowboy in Japan.
joe rogan
Yeah, I mean, look, Pettis, when he loses, usually comes back a way better fighter.
That's what happened when he fought Clay Guida.
Clay Guida stuffed him, shut him down.
He came back a way better fighter.
brendan schaub
Pettis is one of my favorite fighters to watch ever.
joe rogan
He's spectacular.
brendan schaub
He's fucking ridiculous.
eddie bravo
Why do they separate the prelims and the main card if it's on the same channel?
joe rogan
Just so that people can time it so that it's like there's two different blocks of shows.
brendan schaub
Okay.
joe rogan
So instead of having a six-hour block of fights, they have two three-hour blocks.
In this case, it seems like less than that.
It seems like two hours because it's only four fights and four fights.
brendan schaub
First of all, you have Felder vs.
Crankshaw.
joe rogan
Crankshaw?
Crookshank.
brendan schaub
Crookshank.
The Detroit superstar?
That's a motherfucking fight, son.
That's your fight of the night on that card.
joe rogan
Well, you know another candidate?
Ross Pearson vs.
Francisco Trinaldo.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I'm not mad at that fight at all.
joe rogan
That's a good fight.
You can fight right there.
brendan schaub
Kote Sanders?
This card's stacked.
joe rogan
Saunders.
Ben Saunders.
Eddie Bravo's student.
How dare you.
You know who's a bad motherfucker, too?
Tysimov.
That dude's a bad motherfucker.
Who's he fighting?
Yeah.
Yeah, he's nasty, man.
Marabek Tysimov, have you seen that guy fight?
He trains out of Phuket.
He's one of those...
brendan schaub
One of them Russians.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Tiger Muay Thai.
He's a Tiger Muay Thai guy.
eddie bravo
A lot of Russians, right?
joe rogan
Dude, so many.
brendan schaub
The takeover has begun for the Russians.
joe rogan
I think we're out of time.
Are we out of time?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Dude, that card's a motherfucker.
joe rogan
It's a motherfucker.
So is time.
That was three hours.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
We talked about fights for 20 minutes.
brendan schaub
We talked about sharks for an hour.
unidentified
We talked about Kurt Cobain for two hours.
brendan schaub
And the fights for 30 seconds.
joe rogan
We did.
We talked about the CIA killing John Lennon.
And we made a few steroid allegations.
We cleared it up.
We want to get the MMA media and give them some fruit.
brendan schaub
There's your headlines, you little hoes.
joe rogan
Good night.
Good night, everybody.
We love you.
See ya.
