unidentified
Da-da-da-da!
joe rogan
We are live!
brendan schaub
That better be the black bottle, too.
joe rogan
We're discussing how annoying it is.
I listened to the podcast, an episode that I did with Whitney Cummings.
I was listening to it because I had the long drive back from Irvine, and I realized how annoying it is.
I'm always clearing my throat.
I was telling Jamie he makes the best butter coffee, but it's a stout batch, and it gives you a lot of ahem.
brendan schaub
A lot of butter, son.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's good, though.
brendan schaub
Tastes goddamn good.
unidentified
I'm wired right now.
joe rogan
It's like a hug.
brendan schaub
It's like a coffee hug.
joe rogan
Tate says about coffee.
Tate from Cayman Coffee.
bryan callen
Warm coffee.
joe rogan
He says it's like a warm hug.
That's what it is.
bryan callen
I was with Keith Jardine.
I kind of ran into him at the airport.
And we were somewhere, I can't remember, and he said, you've got to follow me.
And I was like, what?
He goes, just follow me.
There's a very special coffee place here.
And literally, I'm like, okay, I don't know where I'm going.
And we walked like a mile, like, you know, one of those airports.
Brings me to this place.
He goes, this is the one place they have very good coffee.
You know, he talks kind of like, really kind of.
And they were closing.
And he said, do you mind staying open just a little bit longer?
And the guy looked at his ears and he's like, I suppose.
He goes, thank you.
We'll have a couple of these coffees, please.
Guy pours us the coffees.
And it was just so funny to watch this brute of a man sip the coffee with such detail and break down the taste.
He's like, a lot of citrus in this.
joe rogan
It sounds like you're about to get raped.
bryan callen
I don't like this conversation at all.
Just suck this dick.
Come with me.
joe rogan
I don't really want to.
Just come with me.
Can you stay open?
We don't really want to.
Just stay open.
bryan callen
This is weird.
Why are your hands on my shoulders?
unidentified
It sounds like he's a bully.
Sit down.
joe rogan
I'm going to talk to you about something nobody gives a fuck about.
bryan callen
The flavor of coffee.
I want you to smell my breath after I drink it and get a little closer to my mouth.
There it is.
Now let's go ahead and drink deeply of my lips.
joe rogan
No, for real though, Keith loves coffee.
unidentified
He's a smart dude.
joe rogan
He's a very smart dude.
brendan schaub
And he loves to go to coffee shops.
I remember when we were training together, we'd get done training and he would take off to a bookstore or a coffee shop, put on his glasses and just read and sip coffee.
I was like, damn!
bryan callen
I love it.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's a smart dude.
He's a very misunderstood guy, Keith Jardine.
brendan schaub
Soft spoken, the nicest guy of all time.
joe rogan
Yeah, if you've got a problem with Keith Jardine, you might be a piece of shit.
bryan callen
That's right.
brendan schaub
You've got a problem with all of us.
joe rogan
How is it even possible?
He's so nice.
He's just a very unusual, interesting, humble guy.
Tate fucking loves coffee.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
As does Tate.
Tate loves the shit.
Tate drinks too much.
Tate will sit here and we'll do a podcast together.
The motherfucker will down four nitros.
unidentified
Jesus.
joe rogan
Each nitro is 270 milligrams of caffeine.
brendan schaub
Dude, we're in his club.
Where were we at?
In Texas?
In Dallas?
We were at one of his clubs.
We had our after party.
joe rogan
The hunky-dunk place?
brendan schaub
Yeah, something like that.
And he goes, bro, I have four kegs of nitro.
I was like, it's one in the morning.
What the hell are we supposed to do with it?
You go all night, man.
joe rogan
We don't understand.
He's sober.
unidentified
Dead sober.
joe rogan
Dead sober.
bryan callen
And he'll use a lot of butter in that beard.
He'll use a lot of butter in that beard.
And he's not above grabbing me about the waist and pulling me right into his lap.
And I'm just like, I'm sitting in your lap right now and I'm afraid to move out of the way.
brendan schaub
He smells like a bookstore.
He has like a unique smell.
joe rogan
Like a hippie bookstore.
brendan schaub
Yeah, like...
unidentified
Like wax and B.O. You call it tattered covered books.
bryan callen
You call it B.O. I call it possibility.
brendan schaub
It's a weird vibe.
He smells like Woodstock.
joe rogan
But see, a lot of those dudes that are sober, and you know I love Keith, Tate to death.
I love both of them, but I love Tate to death.
Like, Tate's my brother.
I love that guy.
There was, um...
A lot of the Alcoholics Anonymous guys, any sobriety guys, they drink a lot of coffee.
bryan callen
A lot of coffee.
joe rogan
That's where they're getting there.
They're just getting a little charge, a manageable charge that doesn't fuck up your life.
But it gives you a little...
They like it.
Some of them like cigarettes, unfortunately.
Coffee and cigarettes together for alcoholics.
I'm like, boys, I don't know if you're doing...
I mean, I guess you're not ruining your life in terms of decision-making with the cigarettes like you would be with the booze.
brendan schaub
You're messing your body up though more, right?
bryan callen
It's still a nicotine...
joe rogan
Arguably more.
bryan callen
It's replacing one addiction for another.
joe rogan
I don't know.
It depends on how much you're boozing though, right?
I bet you could kill yourself.
Well, you could definitely kill yourself in one night with booze, right?
And you can't do that with cigarettes.
brendan schaub
No.
joe rogan
So I guess it's more toxic to drink.
brendan schaub
A lot of those addicts become like marathon runners because the endorphins they get from running long, it's the same thing.
So they get all skinny.
bryan callen
I was with Joe Schilling yesterday.
And it's just so cool to watch that guy just light up to be just a world champion kickboxer and then just smoke a cigarette once in a while.
It's just like, I'm so fucking...
Tobacco doesn't fucking fuck with me, man.
I'll kick cancer in its ass.
I was like, how long have you been smoking?
joe rogan
He goes, since I was 12. Yeah, it's unfortunate, because I think it slows him down a little bit.
Joe's awesome even with it, but I definitely think it's a performance detriment.
It just is.
If a sport relies on cardio as a huge factor, why would you personally limit one of the biggest factors I mean, you can mitigate it somewhat with hard training and a healthy lifestyle and, you know, moderation.
Only smoke a few days.
You can mitigate it.
But think about a sport where people are trying so hard for little tiny fucking bumps of improvement.
brendan schaub
At that level, yeah.
Talking about 1% makes you a world champion.
bryan callen
But sometimes, though...
joe rogan
But hold on.
Is there a difference between...
I mean, the amount of...
Decrease in performance you would get from smoking cigarettes versus the amount of increase in performance you can get from taking some things.
Like, what's this shit they keep getting popped with?
The Russian boxer just got popped.
bryan callen
Melodium.
Melodium, yeah.
joe rogan
What is it called?
Jamie, see if you could find that, please.
I think it's called Melodium.
brendan schaub
Is it like a version of EPO? Like it raises your red blood cells?
unidentified
It's similar.
joe rogan
Novitski explained it to me, but a lot of Russian guys are getting caught with it.
bryan callen
All of them.
joe rogan
But here's the thing.
This is what's important.
It was legal until December.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
But going back to Joe Schilling, this is my only, and I don't advocate smoking ever, right?
My family members die from it, cancer, all that stuff.
But with Joe Schilling, a guy like that, if he smokes every now and then, I don't know how often he's smoking, but if he's smoking cigarettes...
And it allows him to be more free and creative inside the ring.
It's almost helping him.
joe rogan
How could cigarettes rely him to be more creative?
brendan schaub
Maybe it calms his nerves.
He's been doing it for so long.
It's a ritual for him.
So it's almost the same thing with Jon Jones.
Man, you can smoke a little weed and still be world champion, the best man on the planet.
We don't have to take all this weight and wear Dockers and act like God's child.
You know what I'm saying?
bryan callen
Well, I've seen people who have to be very, very specific and correct and intense in something.
A lot of times the way they manage that stress, the stress of competition, the stress of living up to expectations, is they have one vice.
They typically will give themselves a recess.
Whether that's smoking, girls, whatever it might be.
Human beings tend to do that more than they don't.
brendan schaub
Most athletes don't.
And I would say that was my biggest problem was everything had to be mapped out, had to be written out, plan for plan, minute by minute.
And if anything went wrong, I freaked out.
And I always wish I was more of that maverick, Joe Schilling, maybe have a cigarette, maybe go crash a Bentley with hookers and go game.
joe rogan
But don't you think that that's maybe...
Like, the cigarettes aren't necessary.
It's the attitude behind the choice to make cigarettes part of your life.
unidentified
Correct.
joe rogan
That's what's necessary.
bryan callen
That was made, though, when he was much younger.
joe rogan
Yeah, but he doesn't have to continue that pattern.
brendan schaub
No, he's a smart guy.
bryan callen
He doesn't smoke a lot.
Like, I noticed that.
unidentified
I know.
bryan callen
Yeah, we've talked about it.
Yeah.
joe rogan
And I know he's tried to stop.
I mean, he's tried to stop.
Here's my feeling.
If you try to stop something, it means you want to stop something.
So if you try to stop and then you don't stop, that means it beat your ass.
That is an important part of your life where you can win.
You're in a competition with yourself and you can win and you don't.
This is my feeling about this and I'm not trying to be hard on people, but I think this is an important distinction.
When you fail yourself, When you decide to yourself that you're gonna take care of something and you're gonna kick an addiction, you're gonna do something, and you don't do it, you don't like yourself as much.
It's one of the most important things about accomplishments and about overcoming bad things in your life.
If you have something you're doing, like smoking cigarettes, and you don't kick it, you won't respect yourself the same.
bryan callen
The only thing I would say, though, is that sometimes liking yourself isn't so important for accomplishing great things.
There are a lot of people that...
joe rogan
Well, it's for happiness.
bryan callen
Well, yes, yes.
But, you know, sometimes happiness can be the great stopper.
You know, it's like Harriet Doerr, when she won the Book Award, they said, were you happy being a housewife for 35 years?
And she said, why would anybody who's happy write a book?
I'm not saying that you have to be suffering, but a lot of times I don't know that being satisfied, having peace of mind, and even being happy, which of course we all are striving for, sometimes that can be a hindrance to what got you Where you are in the first place.
And I'm speaking primarily, a lot of great books, screenplays, films made by smokers.
You're right.
joe rogan
I know what you're saying.
bryan callen
But when it comes to addiction, one of the things that they found that's way easier to deal with, so a lot of people say, well, stop smoking because it'll kill you, or stop smoking because it makes no sense, or stop smoking because you're not disciplined.
That tends to not, that might work for a short period of time, but people always go back to their set point.
And what does work better is Well, I don't think you should say always because a lot of people quit.
They do.
But what helps with quitting from what I have read and what I've talked to and even in my own experience is that you have to start associating The act of smoking or whatever your vice might be with something negative and associating and even feeling the difference.
I always say about people who want to get in shape.
If you could feel, if people are out of shape and eat a lot and eat shitty food, if they could feel how much better they feel, I'm just talking about the pleasure principle.
If they could feel what it's like to be in shape, I think they'd have an easier time going on.
brendan schaub
The road to get there, though, be like, you won't realize how good you feel smoking until, I mean, the withdrawals and all.
It's going to take forever, man, to get through that point.
So that's a hard point to argue.
joe rogan
And I don't, you know, obviously, I never smoked.
But some people who have smoked, like Ari said, like to this day, he quit years ago.
But he said he still gets an itch.
Like, he'll see people smoking and he'll go, God, that looks good.
Like, it is a powerful, powerful drug.
If a guy like Schilling can't kick it, I agree.
brendan schaub
I don't think he wants to bad enough.
But also, with this keto diet, I stopped all sugar.
I can't walk by Mrs. Fields.
Don't bring me by Mrs. Fields.
I will freak the fuck out, man.
joe rogan
So it's back now, because for a while you were saying you don't even crave it.
brendan schaub
It's only if I go by Mrs. Fields.
I was at the mall with my brother, and I was literally like, Oh, dang, son.
Take my wallet.
Take my wallet.
bryan callen
Well, you know what causes more of it?
If you go into the mentality of scarcity.
So if you start thinking this is the last cookie on the planet, you're going to go for it.
joe rogan
It slows your metabolism down.
When you start going into scarcity mode, that's one of the things that they say about people that were incorrectly starving themselves.
They'll have little tiny portions of carbs.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
And then your body's like, what the fuck are you doing?
And your body slows down because it's worried about losing resources because no food's coming in.
It can actually spark with you.
brendan schaub
Yeah, your metabolism slows down.
It's like, we better hang on to this shit.
joe rogan
The only way fasting's good is when your body's in ketosis.
Because then your body just starts burning fat.
bryan callen
The fucked up thing about addictions is that this evolutionary biologist, his name escapes me, was talking about how the fact that, like an addictive mindset, people who are extreme, who need a lot of food, for example, or whatever, that kind of mindset actually served our ancestors.
Cavemen, the idea of finding, pinpointing what you want, which is that deer, and running after it for three days until it, you know, falls over, that need, that sort of reptilian Yes.
The problem is when you take away the fact that you have to chase a deer for three days, we still have a lot of that reptilian sort of caveman mentality.
And the most successful people in those societies now will tend to be the same people that have the same insane drive to do all the cocaine or eat all the food or drink all the alcohol.
brendan schaub
Or they're addictive to working out or to their sport.
Most of the time, you know these people, Joe, and so do you.
Those world, those elite of the elite, the one percenters, they're not the funs to hang out with.
joe rogan
Some of them are not.
A guy like Michael Jordan, they used to say that Michael Jordan, if you beat him playing ping pong, he wouldn't talk to you for two weeks.
bryan callen
That's right.
joe rogan
He would fucking be angry at you and pissed at you.
brendan schaub
People aren't fun to hang out with.
joe rogan
Yeah, and that's what produces that intense level of focus that creates a guy like a Michael Jordan.
brendan schaub
They also don't like themselves, though.
joe rogan
There's a little bit of that in there.
But the question becomes, do you want to be happy?
Do you want to be healthy?
Or do you just want to be successful?
Do you want to be some miserable person that's laden with addictions that you may or may not be managing, but that is creating some success, like in the form of art, like maybe music or something like that?
I think a lot of musicians...
There's an argument for that, versus like...
I bet Nickelback eat a lot of vegan food.
bryan callen
Look, man, I told you.
joe rogan
I bet they drink fresh spring water.
I bet they get up early and do yoga.
brendan schaub
Dude, they get so much shit.
They drop some hits, though, man.
joe rogan
They have some songs I enjoy hearing.
unidentified
Me too!
joe rogan
There's that one song that everybody has sung.
brendan schaub
Which was?
joe rogan
They have one jam.
But listen, no, no, no.
It's the theme, the rock star song.
Like, I'm a rock star.
My favorite version is the Cypress Hill version.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Do you wanna be a rockstar?
Like to be real version?
That's the shit, right?
That's the best version of it.
brendan schaub
Nickelback Superstar is the bomb.
joe rogan
But Nickelback's got, they got their own version of it.
It's one of those.
bryan callen
Never heard it.
joe rogan
And it's a good song, unfortunately.
brendan schaub
I'd love a sample of that song.
I've never heard it.
bryan callen
Let's sample up.
joe rogan
It's not bad!
brendan schaub
I'm with Roken on this.
Fuck anyone who doesn't like that Nickelback song.
joe rogan
Look, I thought, here's, there is, but there's something that I think we all recognize about what they did.
Is that there's something sort of disingenuous or something, contrived or something, but it's still good.
bryan callen
But why does everybody get too mad at them?
brendan schaub
I think because they're almost fake, you know?
bryan callen
Yeah, and I can't be friends with any of those guys at a glance.
joe rogan
I don't think they're fake at all.
You know what I think, man?
brendan schaub
They're just too old.
joe rogan
They're successful, and I think a lot of dumb people like them.
It's not that they're not good.
I think they are good.
I think that you get associated with some of your fans.
There's that.
And someone started picking on them and using them as a punchline.
And then it became that punchline.
bryan callen
They are not as bad.
joe rogan
Look at all the bad musical artists.
And I say bad.
Obviously, taste is subjective.
And I'm just talking about my opinion.
bryan callen
Right.
joe rogan
Which is my taste, for me.
There's so much shit out there.
But people love it.
And it doesn't become a punchline like Nickelback became a punchline.
brendan schaub
Just four white dudes.
joe rogan
Look a little too good.
bryan callen
Look a little too healthy.
brendan schaub
Had some highlights.
bryan callen
Michael Bolton was talking about that.
Michael Bolton was saying, I became a punchline.
Michael Bolton was saying, I was just doing music and all of a sudden the right people started making fun of me.
joe rogan
Wait, did you see the guy with the hair?
bryan callen
Yes, and he said, people started making fun of me, and I just caught fire.
brendan schaub
No shit.
bryan callen
Literally became, I was just writing my music.
brendan schaub
Well, he had long hair, and he had like a turtleneck on him.
Of course, and he made fun of.
bryan callen
His voice isn't bad, but his voice is good.
joe rogan
There's some hair here.
Look at the hair.
Oh my goodness.
brendan schaub
No shit, my man.
joe rogan
Look, Michael, you need a fucking mirror.
Ask yourself, what have you given these people?
brendan schaub
He's on the come-up, though.
He's on the come-up.
unidentified
I'm sure he is.
brendan schaub
He's in those new commercials.
bryan callen
He's talented.
brendan schaub
And he was on the Lonely Island video.
He's back.
bryan callen
He's funny.
He's very talented, man.
joe rogan
See, but he's rocking normal hair now.
Upper left.
Upper left.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he's back.
bryan callen
Handsome guy.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's someone's dad.
brendan schaub
That's perfect.
joe rogan
That's Caitlyn Jenner.
brendan schaub
A little too much makeup, but looks like Caitlyn Jenner's short hair.
joe rogan
He's got teenage daughters.
You gotta go to his house and meet him.
You take his daughter to the prom.
brendan schaub
I'd grab a beer with that guy.
joe rogan
Seems like a nice fella.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he does.
joe rogan
He fixed the whole thing.
The hair thing was out of control.
unidentified
That's right.
joe rogan
It's almost like the back and the bottom was to distract you from the top.
It's like you had some weirdness going on.
The top was just like weirdly cropped.
brendan schaub
Just a hot mess.
joe rogan
Trust me, there's a guy who's tried to disguise baldness before.
That's exactly what he's doing.
bryan callen
That's what happens with guys.
With guys, if a dude is decorating himself a little too much, he becomes subversive.
We all go, hey man, the guy's got bracelets.
Why is he wearing bangles?
And what's with the tiara?
I don't know what the fuck is going on in there.
joe rogan
Why is that?
bryan callen
Is he competing for too many girls?
joe rogan
Native American deer skin outfits with the tassels, and he's got a bear claw necklace.
brendan schaub
Yeah, get the fuck out of my face.
joe rogan
And a medicine bag.
Yeah, get the fuck out of my face.
bryan callen
He better be a shaman.
joe rogan
A dude who carries around potpourri.
bryan callen
He better be a masseuse and a good one.
joe rogan
How many bracelets can you have before you're an asshole?
bryan callen
God, that's a good question.
joe rogan
Do you have a gang of those bracelets?
brendan schaub
Unless you're fucking Criss Angel.
joe rogan
Unless you're Randy Couture.
bryan callen
Criss Angel's the...
brendan schaub
Nope.
Hey, Randy.
unidentified
Randy.
brendan schaub
I love you, brother.
No.
joe rogan
Why are you wearing a scarf and a tank top?
You gotta make up your mind to see what the fuck's going on.
bryan callen
It's fucking confusing, bro!
joe rogan
What kind of weather are you expecting, sir?
brendan schaub
I don't know, but I'm ready, bitches!
bryan callen
Hey, you know what?
He gets away with it.
unidentified
He does!
joe rogan
He gets a fucking free pass for everything.
He can wear the bracelets.
He can wear a scarf.
brendan schaub
He can do no wrong.
bryan callen
Great beard.
joe rogan
What happened that made him say, I need this scarf?
Back that up.
bryan callen
A stylist, stylist, stylist.
joe rogan
Come on.
Look, he's got another scarf.
Stop for a second.
This is Randy fucking Couture.
brendan schaub
Captain America, son.
joe rogan
Captain America.
bryan callen
With a scarf.
I like it.
joe rogan
Multiple time world champion.
One of the toughest guys that's ever walked the face of the planet Earth.
You don't need a stylist!
brendan schaub
Hollywood got to him and went, you know what would make you look better?
Scarf.
joe rogan
He needs us.
bryan callen
Can I be honest with you?
brendan schaub
He bought 50 of them.
joe rogan
He needs us.
bryan callen
I'm wearing a fucking scarf.
joe rogan
He doesn't need a scarf.
bryan callen
I'm going to get that scarf.
joe rogan
I know you would wear a scarf.
You son of a bitch.
bryan callen
Randy wears one, so why can't I? Holy shit, why is he in so many scarves?
joe rogan
He likes scarves.
The guy likes scarves.
I don't understand.
Maybe it's so if someone fucks with him, he takes it off and kills him with it.
bryan callen
I don't know.
brendan schaub
Maybe just ready for a sandstorm.
joe rogan
Maybe he's not really into geech hoax.
He's really into geech hoax, but he thinks he'd be douchey to wear a black belt around his neck everywhere he goes.
brendan schaub
Legit point.
unidentified
Thank you.
brendan schaub
I'm a legit point.
joe rogan
He came to 10th Planet in between career.
Before he came back and fought Tim Sylvia, he came to 10th Planet and he did a grappling match with Jacare.
Do you remember that?
He had a grappling match with Jacare.
Rico Ciapparelli, who was probably one of the most important guys in the early days of MMA as far as incorporating wrestling and submissions.
Rico was a huge asset to a lot of guys that were just starting out.
And to this day has helped a lot of fighters.
Mac Danzig was working with Rico before he retired, and it was his last few fights, and he was like, Rico is a fucking genius, man.
He knows so much.
And he was one of the early guys that was a wrestler that was tapping out black belts.
He was a really, really high-level wrestler.
In fact, he's in the Mark Schultz documentary, Foxcatcher.
Mark Schultz wrestled him.
I'm pretty sure.
bryan callen
Yeah, he won.
Well, Rico was NCAA champion.
I believe he was an Olympic alternate.
I'm not sure.
joe rogan
Super high-level wrestler, and then on top of that, super knowledgeable about submissions.
And he created a professional submission thing.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he's a monster.
joe rogan
And so Randy fought Jacare in this professional submission thing.
He's so strong.
Jacare tried to leg lock him.
He had his leg.
He couldn't fucking straighten it out.
Randy's just doing leg curls.
He could not straighten it.
brendan schaub
Captain America, son.
joe rogan
He's got these grappler strength from Mark Kerr.
Hundreds of years of squeezing things.
brendan schaub
Before he fought Lyoto Machida in Toronto, it's the week of the fight.
I'm there doing an appearance for UFC, and I see Randy in the hotel.
I've maybe met him once before.
He goes, hey man, you're a good striker.
I need you to help me tonight.
This is the night before the fight.
I'm like, huh?
He goes, I need you to help me.
Okay.
He had some Jim Extreme Coutures in Toronto.
We jump in.
Two Hummers.
Where do they got him?
I have no idea.
Drive to this location.
Far as hell.
I'm like, what the hell am I going to do?
And so the night before the fight, he's doing rounds, son.
You know how most guys just do like, you know, he's already made weight.
You know how most guys just kind of break their wind and loosen up?
Oh, not Captain America.
Oh, no.
He had all his coaches there, and his striking coach couldn't get into the country for whatever reason.
So they had old big brown hair hold mitts for him.
I don't hold mitts.
I hit mitts.
I don't know if they know that.
I don't fucking hold mitts.
But they're like, we need to stand southpaw.
And every minute, a new guy's gonna rotate in on Randy for five rounds.
I was like, the night before the fight?
But Randy Couture, I'm like, fuck it, I'm gonna do whatever this guy says.
So his coach would go and different guys would go and be different in situations.
And I'm trying to hold mitts.
Mind you, I've never, I don't hold mitts.
I have to stand southpaw like a little machida.
Oh, and Randy isn't hitting him like just feeling out.
This dude fucked me up.
I mean, boom!
Hit me in the chin, the nose, bloody nose, pick me up, slam me, and I'm supposed to just let him do whatever he wants.
This dude fucked me up.
Every round, I'm like, God.
joe rogan
So he wants you to hit paths and then shoot doubles, and he's going to shoot doubles on you and take you down and hit you as well?
brendan schaub
Yeah, he was doing this setup where he would, it was like a straight right, left hook, and then he'd get in on a single leg.
And I was like, God, man, when you're coming and striking, I feel like you're open for it.
Because his setup, again, I don't know Raina, I didn't train with him before that, so I I didn't feel like I was in a position to say anything, but I was like, God, I feel like you're opening yourself up with Leota, man.
He's not going to be there.
Like, you're coming straight at him.
He's not going to be there.
I told his coach that, and they're like, no, he got this.
You know, he's been there before.
I was like, yeah, for sure.
It's Randy Couture.
Pan watching the fight.
unidentified
Couture!
brendan schaub
Tooth!
unidentified
See ya!
bryan callen
Yeah, he got knocked out.
unidentified
I thought he was going to get on the mic and be like, way to go, Shob, you son of a bitch.
bryan callen
Jumping front kick is what I think it was.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's exactly what it was.
That was in Toronto.
That was the biggest event ever.
bryan callen
How about what Jacare did to Vitor this weekend?
Damn.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's a monster.
brendan schaub
I don't think that was very surprising, though.
joe rogan
Well, this is the Vitor you're looking at.
This Vitor that you're looking at right now is a Vitor with diminished hormone levels.
brendan schaub
He's 39 off TRT. What do you think was going to happen?
bryan callen
His legs look so skinny and his ass wasn't there anymore.
joe rogan
You can't...
There's only so much your body can do if you're not supplementing your hormones after a certain age.
And when you see guys that fucked with steroids most of their life and then tried to operate off of them, you have real problems just kick-starting your endocrine system.
brendan schaub
Except for our boy Overeem.
joe rogan
Well, no, no, no, no.
brendan schaub
Testing?
joe rogan
What's up?
Well, he's figured out a way to get down to 240 pounds.
He's younger a little bit than Vitor, first of all, but he's figured out a way to get down to 240, and maybe he doesn't have as much power.
Well, I think what he's realizing now is technically, like as a striker, he is at a fucking very high level.
I think he's made mistakes.
He's made mistakes in some of his fights, mistakes in his approaches, mistakes in how big he tried to be, or running out of gas, like in the Travis Brown fight when Travis caught him with that front kick to the face.
He would try to finish guys off, and if he didn't finish guys off, he'd kind of be fucked.
brendan schaub
And now, you know, he's relying on skills.
joe rogan
It's also with Winklejohn.
That fucking Jackson team, man, there's a lot of great people for him to train with.
brendan schaub
He's relying on skills.
I'm just saying, now that he's one of the guys where you see drug testing kick in, and obviously he looks completely different, but now he has to adapt the way he fights.
He has more skills in the heavyweight division than anyone else when he comes striking.
joe rogan
A K-1 champion?
brendan schaub
It's not even close.
joe rogan
He won the Grand Prix.
brendan schaub
Not even fucking close.
bryan callen
He's beating the best in the world.
His technique is so fun to watch and Donald will spar with him and says he just learns watching the guy.
brendan schaub
But this is what I'm saying is he's a guy where this strict drug testing kicks in.
You can see a physical change and he's still doing well.
joe rogan
Well, he's better.
brendan schaub
He's better.
bryan callen
He fights more caution.
Yes.
joe rogan
He's fighting really smart.
brendan schaub
I'd say smarter, not cautiously.
Way smarter.
Because he used to come in like a meathead because he had so much power.
joe rogan
Yeah, exactly.
And that allowed him to get clipped.
And I think that when you're seeing him fight now, like especially, perfect example is Junior Dos Santos.
Like he knocked Junior Dos Santos out and a lot of people are like, God, maybe Junior's Maybe he's done.
Maybe he's just not the same anymore.
Then Junior comes back and fights Ben Rothwell and looks better than he's ever looked.
So Junior looks fantastic and then you realize, oh, Overeem's fucking good.
bryan callen
He's good.
So explain to me why Grand Prix K1 champion is just so much better.
joe rogan
It's the biggest of the big of all, especially at the time when he did it.
It doesn't exist anymore.
But at the time when he won it, it was Badur Hari, Gokhan Saki, the fucking best of the best.
Peter Ertz, these guys that won it.
brendan schaub
The guys that were there.
And he won it.
joe rogan
Jerome LeBan or Ernesto, when you go back to like the history of K1, goddamn Andy Hoog, some of the greatest strikers of all time, the most entertaining, exciting, wild, crazy fights between heavyweights, and they would knock each other out all the time!
brendan schaub
Yeah, Peter Archer, Sam Schilt, I mean, you got some monsters.
joe rogan
Oh my god, Sammy Schilt, good luck trying to get in on that guy.
Seven feet tall, he would front kick the shit out of you.
brendan schaub
How the fuck did he not play professional basketball?
joe rogan
Well, dude, he was such a good kickboxer.
I just wish there was more money in kickboxing.
brendan schaub
Especially back then.
joe rogan
Yeah.
bryan callen
Seven feet tall.
joe rogan
Do you remember when Karatanov took him down and mounted him and just punched him in his same eye over and over again?
He was screaming.
brendan schaub
You bet your sweet ass that I do.
joe rogan
Dude, that was one of the most disturbing...
Like, finishes of a fight.
Karatanov took Semishilt down, got on top of him.
Karatanov was a monster.
brendan schaub
Scared the shit out of him.
joe rogan
He was very scary.
Because some Russian military dude.
And he was beating Semishilt like he was torturing a prisoner.
Like, I'm not even kidding, man.
He, like, found, like, he isolated him, got on top of him, pinned him down, and then kept hitting him in his cut eye.
brendan schaub
He had the same eye, though.
joe rogan
Yeah, the same eye.
Just hitting the same eye.
And Sammy Schilt was just screaming at one point.
brendan schaub
Prisoner of War style.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Like, he had some info that fucking our boy needed.
joe rogan
It wasn't good, man.
It wasn't good.
There was something crazy about it.
unidentified
Oh, no.
joe rogan
It was like, whoa.
brendan schaub
Then he came into Strikeforce and did work, too.
None of that.
joe rogan
Well, we thought Orlovsky was done after he smooshed Orlovsky.
unidentified
Phew.
joe rogan
Remember?
unidentified
He straight-merked Olofsky.
joe rogan
I mean, he's a K-1 striker.
Karitanov's a beast.
bryan callen
It's a whole different thing.
joe rogan
Yeah, I mean, he's not the best of K-1.
You know, he gets beat by the best guys in K-1, but he's at a super high level.
His striking is no fucking joke.
brendan schaub
For MMA, it was really good, too, because he did a lot of box and had good defense.
joe rogan
Beat the fuck out of Overeem.
Beat the fuck out of Overeem.
Knocked him outstanding.
Cracked him, had him running away from him.
Running away from him, and then he folds against...
brendan schaub
And then when they bought Strikeforce, they just never moved him over.
Yeah, I guess not.
joe rogan
I wonder what happened.
I think he had some injuries for a while, too, I believe.
I believe he had some issues, and he gained a lot of weight because of it.
Remember he got real heavy?
brendan schaub
Yeah, because he lost in the heavyweight Grand Prix that DC won.
He was in that, and he lost.
bryan callen
What do you think is going to happen?
brendan schaub
I want to say Barnett.
And Barnett beat him.
Am I right on that, Jimmy?
Or am I going crazy?
joe rogan
I don't remember that fight.
bryan callen
What do you think is going to happen when Stipe fights over him?
brendan schaub
That's next, I think, 100%.
Because if you look at their scheduling too, they both fought around the same time.
Overeem's next.
He's won four in a row.
He's the guy for the job.
They're both there.
joe rogan
I think you have to wait until Travis Brown fights Cain Velasquez.
But this is my thought.
Cain Velasquez, if he beats Travis Brown in some spectacular way, they're going to be calling for him to fight for the title.
bryan callen
That's the toughest fight, I think, for Miosic, only because Travis will be in his grill.
Travis or Cain?
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Cain.
If Cain is in shape in that cardio thing and just in his grill, boxing, getting close, and wrestling, he's probably at least as good a wrestler or a better wrestler than Stipe.
joe rogan
Cain is overwhelming.
Yeah.
As a person who's watched fighters.
bryan callen
Not close?
joe rogan
As a person who's watched fighters my whole life, like watching the UFC, all the thousands of fights, I've never seen a heavyweight that can put the kind of pressure on somebody that Cain can.
He's just different.
His cardio is just different.
It's crazy.
It's like he's got double lungs.
I'm not even joking, man.
I've been overwhelmed watching his fights before.
brendan schaub
It could be an argument he's number one, best heavyweight of all time.
unidentified
You could argue that.
joe rogan
I do argue that.
Oh, do you?
People get mad at me.
They say, Fedor's number one.
brendan schaub
Nah.
joe rogan
Maybe.
No, I don't think so.
Look, I really think that you have to be open-minded about this number one debate.
And I think until Verdum just got knocked out, Verdum is in the running for the debate.
unidentified
100%.
joe rogan
I mean, he submits Fedor.
brendan schaub
In his prime, really.
joe rogan
Submits Minotauro.
And I don't think Fedor was in his prime, though.
That's why I disagree.
brendan schaub
He was the first guy to do it when it was Fedor.
And then after that, I was like, alright, big bro.
joe rogan
He did get caught by Fedor.
But I think he was already on the slide.
brendan schaub
He was, but there was still that kind of prestige of Fedor.
Like, after he lost that, and then it's like, oh, fuck it.
joe rogan
Yeah, we can beat this guy.
But the reason I'm saying this is coaches were saying that.
His own MMA coach, after he knocked out Brett Rogers, said that Fedor won with his old tricks, but he would have liked to have him for more time training.
unidentified
Sure.
joe rogan
And he thinks he's not approaching it correctly, and he just won by being Fedor.
bryan callen
But he also caught Verdum with that old trick.
He caught him, knocked him down, and then the mistake Fedor made was he jumped into his guard.
But remember, he jumped in to pound him, but he caught him really, really well, knocked him down with the exact same timing that he did to everybody before that.
joe rogan
Okay, maybe.
Or maybe Verdum goes down on purpose the moment a punch hits him so he could drag you into his guard.
Which he does.
He's a smart guy.
Verdum is a very smart guy.
brendan schaub
He didn't fight smart on Saturday.
joe rogan
He definitely did not.
brendan schaub
Why the fuck would you run the face first?
joe rogan
Because he got tagged.
If you watch the stoppage, see if you can find the highlight.
I'll show it to you.
Because this is something that I wish somebody brought up during the actual commentary.
He got tagged right before he got knocked out.
He got tagged doing the same thing with the right hand.
He moved forward.
He was making these advances.
He moved forward.
He got tagged with that right hand.
And I think he was on Queer Street.
And I think he went running at Stipe on Queer Street and got knocked the fuck out.
And the way Stipe did it was...
A fucking work of art.
brendan schaub
The angle?
joe rogan
It was like Anderson Silva and Forrest Griffin.
bryan callen
Baby step to the right and boom, right?
brendan schaub
It was better.
joe rogan
It was even better.
brendan schaub
It was better.
His angle was sick.
Obviously, his right hand was nasty.
It's also...
Verdum did get hit early.
And in Verdum's training, if you've seen him train, there's this competition within that gym.
When you get hit, it's like, whoa, gotta get him back.
I think it was more...
He gets hit and he's like a charging bull.
It was like, fuck this, man.
joe rogan
I think it's probably a little of both.
brendan schaub
A little of both.
I agree.
joe rogan
Because I definitely think he got cracked.
unidentified
Cracked.
joe rogan
And I'm like, whoa, that is a big right hand that he got hit with.
And it's in the same manner.
The same manner.
He's charging forward, he got hit.
That's how Aldo got knocked out against McGregor.
You've got to be fucking real careful charging forward.
brendan schaub
It makes the punch harder.
Way harder.
You know, Stipe's knocked out some great guys, but he's not a knockout artist per se.
If you compare him to Mark Hunt or Roy Nelson, he's not a knockout artist.
When a guy's charging in like that, and then you're countering with right hand, it makes it seem way worse.
joe rogan
Well, here's my take on Stipe's power.
I think Stipe has big power, but I think he fights economically and intelligently.
He's a smooth fighter.
bryan callen
Like a good boxer.
joe rogan
He's a very good boxer, golden gloves boxer, but he's smooth and relaxed in the way he spars.
It's one of the things that makes him so dangerous.
He does things very correctly.
DC was on the commentary for the UFC recently and was talking about getting the rub.
You know, he was talking about that experience.
When you have a tough fight with someone, you get the rub.
And he fought Junior Dos Santos and they went to war.
bryan callen
What do you mean rub?
joe rogan
This is what I mean.
He was saying, like Daniel says, when you fight someone that's really good and they're better than you, even if you lose, it elevates you.
You get the rub.
Just by sharing the ring with them, just by competing with them, you realize how good you are, you actually get better.
And you realize how good that person is.
I think he got the rub when he fought Junior Dos Santos in a way.
Because he went five rounds with a guy who was one of the toughest of the tough.
A guy who was a champion who knocked out Cain Velasquez with one punch.
And he went five hard rounds with him.
And the decision could have went either way.
brendan schaub
And took his best shots.
And I also think, to go back to DC's point and your point, with the rub...
I think at the UFC level, especially when you get in that top echelon, you know you're good and people are telling you you're good.
But when he beat Orlovsky, he starched him.
You don't learn much from that man.
When you go to a decision with a world-class guy, then you know.
You're doing something right.
You're camp.
You're doing it right.
You had good gas.
You realize what works, what doesn't.
So you learn so much more.
And he's going to, like you said, war with JDS. And we see him getting better and better.
joe rogan
Well, what's really interesting now...
Is, here's the dark horse that nobody talks about.
Stefan Struve is only 28 years old.
That fucking dude is gigantic.
He's seven feet tall.
And if he could put it together, and he put it together on Bigfoot Silva the other night and knocked him out.
I know the guy has a bunch of knockout losses.
I know he does.
But he knocked out Stipe.
brendan schaub
Struve knocked out Stipe.
joe rogan
That was his only loss in the UFC. Dude, Struve, do not count that guy out yet.
brendan schaub
Struve did an inside leg kick and then knocked him out.
bryan callen
He's got that heart issue and stuff.
joe rogan
Well, I don't know what he's got going on physically, but I'm saying that kid, if he puts it all together, when you're seven feet tall...
How long does it take before you even get coordinated right?
I mean, it's like you're sending a message, and it's got to go so far before it gets to your fucking hand.
bryan callen
Have you fought guys that are super tall, like Jack May and those guys?
brendan schaub
Yeah, but the thing is...
Struve would be such a freaking handful if he could learn to use his reach.
But guys like Roy Nelson, when you get these upper echelon guys, nothing against Bigfoot, but off TRT or whatever, because he actually needs it, off it, I think anyone in the top 20 kind of fucks him up.
But with Struve, the real test would be who they'd give him next.
joe rogan
Well, Struve got fucked up by Overeem.
And Overeem, that was a super intelligent fight the way he fought it.
Took him down.
Beautiful takedown.
Gone on top of him.
Just ground and pounded the shit out of him.
brendan schaub
The other thing about Struve is you gotta realize that kid has, I think, 40 fights?
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He has a shitload of miles out.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
Well, that's...
brendan schaub
He has half a heart.
joe rogan
And the mark...
Well, it's not that bad.
No, I'm just kidding.
brendan schaub
No, but it's...
joe rogan
I don't know what he's got.
What is the medical condition?
brendan schaub
I forget.
We have the same manager, so he deals with it all the time.
joe rogan
That Mark Hunt knockout, Jesus Christ.
Mark Hunt with that leaping left hook.
brendan schaub
Shattered his face.
joe rogan
Oh, dude, Mark Hunt hit so fucking hard.
bryan callen
You've been caged, so I'd seen that, right?
It's fast, too.
unidentified
He's so fast!
joe rogan
He's a beast.
bryan callen
I think if Stipe can get...
I'm curious to see if Stipe can get within boxing distance of Alistair and take away any of those kicks and how he sets it up.
joe rogan
That's going to be interesting.
Alistair can box, man.
bryan callen
He can, huh?
joe rogan
Oh yeah, for sure.
Better than Steve B. I'm not going to tell you.
Knocked out Junior with one punch.
brendan schaub
He's the best striker in the UFC heavyweight division, maybe of all time.
bryan callen
So Stipe then is going to have to close that distance and box him, right?
joe rogan
Not necessarily, no.
Stipe could crack him.
Look, Ben Rothwell knocked him out in the first round standing.
brendan schaub
Stipe has better footwork.
joe rogan
Anything can happen.
brendan schaub
He has better footwork.
joe rogan
Alistair's been stopped a lot of times.
brendan schaub
His chin's the question.
This is the other thing people forget with Alistair.
That motherfucker can grapple.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
brendan schaub
He can wrestle and grapple his ass off.
So you want to go to the ground with him, you're going to be in a world of trouble.
joe rogan
Well, he won the Abu Dhabi European Trials.
And in Pride, he submitted Vitor.
He also submitted Mark Hunt.
He has a nasty guillotine, dude.
He's super nasty.
brendan schaub
People always forget about that.
They think of him just as a striker.
But you want to go to the ground with that dude.
bryan callen
I don't think Stipe has a lot of submission work under his belt.
brendan schaub
So Stipe and I trained for two years together.
That kid has submission defense.
So you know how Rashad has his black belt?
If you ask Rashad to show you a real specific offensive move, I don't think it's at black belt level, but his defense.
And Stipe's defense is nasty.
Super nasty.
He's really good at defense.
joe rogan
He's a very smart athlete.
Very good athlete.
When you have a guy who could probably be a professional ball player.
With Stipe?
He could probably be a professional ball player.
brendan schaub
He didn't make it.
joe rogan
Yeah, he didn't make it.
But he's at this level of an athlete.
Now, what I'm saying is it's rare that you see a guy like that who comes over to MMA and fights super technical, super smart, who's also really, really tough.
brendan schaub
He's also a firefighter.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Professional.
brendan schaub
Full-time.
bryan callen
His head is the biggest head I've ever seen.
joe rogan
It's a large head.
brendan schaub
Nicest guy of all time.
joe rogan
He's a great guy, but he's got a rare set of attributes, meaning that he's at pro, sports, athlete level, as far as his ability, his movement, and his intelligence, and his approach, and his training.
And then on top of that, he's tough as fuck.
brendan schaub
Tough as they come.
joe rogan
Tough as fuck.
Like in this fight, let me tell you something, dude.
I watched this fight very carefully.
And one of the things that I was noticing was like how calm he was through everything.
Watch when they're staring each other down.
One of the things you really pay attention to is the shortness of the breathing.
If you watch people breathing during nervous situations, a lot of times, even if they look calm, you can sort of see this uneasiness in the way they're taking in oxygen.
You're sensing tension.
You don't sense any of that shit looking at him.
brendan schaub
You know what's impressive, too, is he doesn't come from a mastermind camp.
joe rogan
No.
brendan schaub
It's just his boys in Cleveland.
joe rogan
Well, he just might have a mastermind camp.
I mean, there's a lot of masterminds out there that don't have the right pupils.
brendan schaub
I'm saying he's not from like a Jackson's, AK, ATT. He keeps his shit within Cleveland and does work and then goes and does a firefight.
bryan callen
And then saves people from burning buildings.
joe rogan
Who else is in that camp?
brendan schaub
The girl.
joe rogan
Hardstyle MMA. There's also, isn't there, is Leslie Smith from there?
No.
It's not Raquel Pennington, right?
Isn't it Jessica Ai?
brendan schaub
No, it's Jessica Ai.
joe rogan
Jessica Ai.
Jessica Ai.
So, they have tough fighters.
It's just like, if a guy's like a really skillful trainer, and you know, you've only been doing it for a few years, you have to wait for the right guy to sort of walk through your door.
brendan schaub
Oh, yeah, it's all about them walking through the door.
joe rogan
I remember that was a big thing with Eddie Bravo.
With Eddie Bravo, it took forever for him to find someone who could do his style And prove in competition that it's very effective, not just with him.
brendan schaub
He had a unique style.
bryan callen
Is that Stipe's brother or dad, the guy with the mustache?
joe rogan
Yeah, look at that guy with the mustache.
brendan schaub
I don't know, that guy's awesome, though.
But you talk about Stipe being calm.
Remember, he's fighting right now.
joe rogan
That guy's not that old, Brian.
Why are you calling that guy his dad?
bryan callen
I don't know.
He looks like his older brother.
brendan schaub
35. His older brother.
unidentified
No.
bryan callen
I guarantee it's his older brother.
joe rogan
Just some fucking thick dude.
You know, Eddie Bravo had a real good point about this.
We were talking about it on the phone.
He was like, Fabricio looked too relaxed.
He was coming up to the ring.
He was making that face that he makes.
bryan callen
What was that?
brendan schaub
I'm so sick of that face.
joe rogan
Well, he's being funny.
He's being silly.
I don't think there's anything wrong with a fighter trying to stay loose.
brendan schaub
I don't at all.
joe rogan
You know, I think that's one of the things that Fabricio does to have a good time.
He likes to make that silly face.
brendan schaub
He's also been doing it forever, man.
joe rogan
He likes it.
brendan schaub
He's the man.
joe rogan
Well, he's Fabricio Verdum.
If he won the fight and made that face, no one would say a fucking word.
If he went out there and head kicked Stipe Miocic, you know, no one would say a word.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
But it didn't work out.
So when it doesn't work out, that's when everybody comes shitting on you.
brendan schaub
Well, it's the same with Conor.
With Conor Nate.
Conor's walking out like, hey!
joe rogan
How about Ronda Rousey?
Same with Ronda.
When Ronda lost, everybody's mad at all the shit that they loved her for.
They loved her for don't be a do-nothing bitch and fuck you, I'll make it to the top, kiss my ass.
brendan schaub
Yeah, now they hate her.
joe rogan
And now they think she's arrogant for that.
brendan schaub
Same with Connor.
unidentified
Of course.
brendan schaub
Oh, you with your rich shit.
He's in Venice right now, driving around in a Royals Royce.
joe rogan
Yeah.
unidentified
Woo!
brendan schaub
Wiling out.
joe rogan
Look, I just, you know, it's just what comes, it's part of what people love about people bragging.
brendan schaub
They want to bring you down, though, man, no matter what.
joe rogan
Look how loose Stipe looks.
Look how loose.
I mean, he's fighting for the title.
Nice and loose.
Look at that.
Moves away.
brendan schaub
He could have been argued he should have got a title earlier, too, but he's just such a nice guy.
joe rogan
A lot of checking, too.
A lot of good checking of kicks.
His Muay Thai is very good.
Very educated with his movements.
Look, Fabricio's got some fucking nasty kicks, man.
Right there, his striking is much improved.
We saw it in the Travis Brown fight, man.
brendan schaub
Fabricio's dangerous on the feet, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, the King Velasquez fight?
Dude, his striking is fucking legit.
He's long as shit.
And he's got confidence in it.
That nice switch kick there.
He's a beast, dude.
brendan schaub
I think in order to be that dangerous of a fighter, you're going to have to open yourself up a little bit.
And then when you fight a real strategic guy like Stipe, you're going to get in a little bit of trouble.
joe rogan
Well, I think what happened in this fight in particular is that he forced it.
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
I think he was in this gigantic soccer arena.
It's the biggest crowd in history in MMA in Brazil.
Look at that beautiful leg kick, though.
brendan schaub
Both of them, though.
joe rogan
Yeah, the inside and the outside.
Nice jab.
bryan callen
Stepping it out to the...
joe rogan
Yeah, it's all nice.
Like, the technique is real nice.
But I think Fabricio was just so ramped up because there's all these people in Brazil, and I think he's a confident man.
I think he thinks he's the fucking best in the world.
He just has to get a hold of this dude.
There's a right hand he nailed with.
unidentified
That's a great right hand.
joe rogan
See, so now he's...
bryan callen
Stipe can take a shot at him.
joe rogan
He can, but now, look, he's forcing it.
He's forcing it.
brendan schaub
Because he landed it.
joe rogan
Yeah, so watch when he starts to force it.
He gets hit real hard, and then he gets hit hard and knocked out.
He tried that knee...
He tries forward, and he got a terrible single attempt there.
brendan schaub
You're not getting Stipe on that.
joe rogan
He's a phenomenal wrestler.
He might have been just trying to make them work, or maybe open up possibilities.
Sometimes you drop for a single, a shitty single.
brendan schaub
I think he's going to just get his mind off.
bryan callen
Stipe's right in range, so he's not afraid to just be right in your grill here.
brendan schaub
He's not, though, B. He's not right in range.
joe rogan
But he's real relaxed.
Even the way he's throwing that jab.
Top, top, top, top.
He's economical.
And when you're economical in a five-round fight, it's super effective.
unidentified
Beautiful jab, man.
joe rogan
That was a very nice leg kick by Fabricio.
bryan callen
But he's timing that jab.
brendan schaub
Great inside leg kick.
joe rogan
And the jab also is super light.
He's just floating it out there.
unidentified
Pop!
joe rogan
There's nice speed.
bryan callen
Watch where he steps when he jabs.
He steps to the side there like that.
joe rogan
Like, look at that jab.
See how light that is?
You know, there's no tension there.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, it's like flowing.
Hey, check that leg kick again.
Nice leg kick by Stipe.
Nice switch.
So right now Fabricio's realizing, okay, this is not an easy fight.
Boom!
brendan schaub
That's it!
joe rogan
That's the one!
That's the one!
And that right here.
Bang!
That's the KO shot.
Now back it up again.
Just back it up just a little bit to where he's chasing him.
brendan schaub
So watch when he's chasing him.
jamie vernon
This video player is really...
You're correct, though.
bryan callen
You're right, I saw that.
brendan schaub
You're correct, though, Joe.
bryan callen
I didn't see that until he got mad and he came at us.
joe rogan
He was wobbling.
Yeah, he got tagged hard with that right hand.
bryan callen
That's right.
joe rogan
And then he kept charging, and then he got face-planted with the second one.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
That first right hand had him on Queer Street, I guarantee you.
Because he's moving forward, and Stipe drops it in on him, and it's the same punch he knocked him out with.
And when Stipe throws a punch, and this is how you know he's good.
I mean, obviously he was fucking good, but this is how you know his technique's at a real high level.
His arm is like loose, man.
And then he throws it, and then as it gets to his face, he tightens it down and does this.
Smack!
Like, as he's moving away, he...
Like, it's a super efficient, like, really technical punch to throw it that way, moving back.
unidentified
Pow!
joe rogan
In that sense, it's very much like what Anderson did to Forrest Griffin.
brendan schaub
It's also calculated because he threw it twice.
And they both land in there.
You can tell they're working on that.
bryan callen
So he threw the left hook twice.
The right hand.
joe rogan
The right hand moving back.
brendan schaub
Moving back.
bryan callen
Is he stepping to the side when he does that?
brendan schaub
He had to.
joe rogan
Yes, but it doesn't even necessarily have to be that he planned it out and that was a part of the game plan.
I think Stipe does that.
I think he's a really good striker.
If you're looking at his movement, and I think you're looking at a guy who's super fucking determined, man.
Stipe is super determined.
And when you're a guy that's that focused, you're gonna get fucking really good at everything.
So after he gets that fight, look at that jab.
See that jab?
See how fluid it is, too.
It's so, like, everything he's doing is so relaxed and efficient.
brendan schaub
You don't see a lot of jab.
You don't see a lot of jabs.
joe rogan
Like, my all-time favorite fighter, probably, if I had to tell you who I was most excited to see fight, is probably Vanderlei.
There's the right hand.
Boom!
See that right hand?
He's fucking hurt here.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he got mad.
joe rogan
He didn't just get mad, his legs jolted.
Like, you could see his legs stiffen up when he got hit by that first right hand.
He got hurt.
And then the second one, faceplant some.
Stipe's a dangerous guy.
unidentified
I'm a world champ!
joe rogan
He's not going to make mistakes.
brendan schaub
Hey Cleveland, let's get our boy a goddamn parade.
No one wins shit in that town.
unidentified
No shit.
brendan schaub
Hey LeBron, you want to jack every other UFC fighter?
How about you tweet out about Stipe?
Your boy's from your fucking hometown.
joe rogan
He jumped off the fence.
He goes, I'm the world champ!
brendan schaub
I'm the new world champ!
Yeah, man.
joe rogan
It was like coming into his mind.
Like, is this real information?
brendan schaub
Hey, LeBron.
joe rogan
Did that just happen?
brendan schaub
Did you step your fucking game up?
joe rogan
Fucking yeah.
I love it.
I love that guy.
brendan schaub
Me too, man.
joe rogan
I love him.
I love what he stands for.
I love watching him as a fighter.
I love that he could do that.
I love it.
I love that he did it in Brazil.
Look at this.
brendan schaub
Me too.
joe rogan
Watch this.
Watch how efficient.
Stooch!
See, it's like, tank!
Yeah, he just drops it in on him.
To be able to time it that good, too.
Look at this.
Watch the timing.
Look at that timing, dude.
bryan callen
He pushes his hand away.
joe rogan
Yeah, dude.
bryan callen
Pushes, and then with the same hand.
brendan schaub
Did you see Overeem's tweet?
unidentified
Crack!
joe rogan
Yeah.
Yeah, he wants to find him.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he said, you're next, and he did that Bloodsport meme.
Love it.
joe rogan
See, that one showed both.
That highlight right there was the perfect highlight.
bryan callen
Step to the right.
joe rogan
Because it showed the first one, how much impact the first one had on him.
The first punch was a big factor there, man.
That first punch had him co-weird up.
brendan schaub
Unbelievable, man.
So cool.
joe rogan
I like that you could still say Queer Street and you're not a homophobe.
brendan schaub
No, Queer Street's fun.
bryan callen
You can't take that away from us.
joe rogan
It's just strange.
You're like, what?
brendan schaub
Where am I? The heavyweight division's fun right now, man, because I don't think we're going to see a champ reign for a long time.
joe rogan
I want to make a shirt that says Fight for Queer Street.
brendan schaub
Hey, how about Queer Street Fight Club?
joe rogan
I think that's sending out the wrong message.
bryan callen
Might be.
joe rogan
That's like a bat signal for dick.
brendan schaub
That's what I'm talking about.
bryan callen
We'll teach you how to throw a right hand.
brendan schaub
For anyone who likes dick, Queer Street Fight Club.
bryan callen
You'll learn how to throw a right hand and fuck guys.
brendan schaub
Dicks are on us.
bryan callen
Time to come, guys.
Let's take a sex break.
joe rogan
I put up a picture the other day on Twitter of the Oak Ridge Boys.
Somebody sent me a picture of the Oak Ridge Boys because it looks like us.
One of them looks exactly like you.
brendan schaub
It really does.
joe rogan
And one of them looks like you and me had a baby.
But one of the things that I was shocked was like, someone said, this looks like you and Callan.
But I go, oh my god, how gay were the Oak Ridge Boys?
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
joe rogan
When did you see this picture?
You're going to go, that's not real.
No, that's real.
This is the actual album cover.
bryan callen
Wow.
brendan schaub
They took a photo shoot for this show.
joe rogan
Holy shit.
brendan schaub
It's hilarious.
bryan callen
You were allowed to feather your hair back then.
joe rogan
Yeah.
I appreciate it.
Check this.
No, that's Orleans.
brendan schaub
Okay, Orleans.
bryan callen
Lord have mercy.
joe rogan
Well, Orleans, this is important because someone said to me after I posted the picture of the Oak Ridge Boys, they said they didn't have nothing on Orleans.
And they put that up and I was like, whoa.
That's impressive.
unidentified
You ain't lying.
brendan schaub
How about homeboy on the right and the bear cub on the far left?
bryan callen
Just a bunch of hairy dudes.
Waking and dreaming.
joe rogan
And look at this guy looking down at the other guy's dick.
Literally.
Dude, you're actually looking down at this guy's dick.
bryan callen
He's closing his eyes.
unidentified
You're crazy.
brendan schaub
If you don't think Orleans is doing a show, then fucking each other.
joe rogan
They just fuck each other during the show.
You just don't notice it.
You don't notice it because they're so gay you get blinded.
bryan callen
They wash each other's hair.
joe rogan
Dude, look at this.
unidentified
This is us.
brendan schaub
Look at Kallen, the far left!
joe rogan
The far right is Kallen and me had a kid and the kid likes mustaches.
Look at the guy's fucking...
Why does he have pantyhose around his neck?
What kind of clothing is that around his neck?
bryan callen
No, that's a straight tie.
That's a straight tie, guys.
joe rogan
I don't think it's a tie.
Look, it's got a tassley thing at the bottom.
brendan schaub
With a pink shirt.
unidentified
You're right, damn it.
joe rogan
See how tassley it is at the bottom?
bryan callen
It's a Randy Couture style.
brendan schaub
Same stylist as Randy Couture?
Same stylist as Couture?
joe rogan
No, it's the dad of Randy Couture stylists.
bryan callen
That's it.
joe rogan
And you know why they have that little star on the right?
Because that dude had a boner that's poking out over the top of his jeans.
bryan callen
Those are some high jeans.
Those are high crotch jeans.
unidentified
It was like a little broomstick poking out over the top of his jeans.
brendan schaub
Those guys are awesome, man.
bryan callen
The guy that looks like me on the end here is really arching his back, Danny.
He's really arched up.
brendan schaub
He's having a good time is what he's having.
joe rogan
The two guys in the middle, one of them is a magician, the other one is a nature guy.
bryan callen
Damn right.
brendan schaub
The other one looks like a blackjack dealer.
The second guy is.
joe rogan
The far left guy looks like a guy who dies in some sort of crazy orgy where everybody does too much molly.
brendan schaub
They were just having fun back then, making music and sucking dick.
unidentified
I'm not mad at it.
bryan callen
And wearing shrimp colored jackets.
brendan schaub
Everyone's so tight these days.
joe rogan
I know, right?
brendan schaub
You can't even have fun anymore.
joe rogan
You can't Orleans it anymore.
Could you imagine if today, in today's climate...
But I would have thought that that climate back then was less tolerant.
brendan schaub
I know.
joe rogan
Today is super tolerant.
bryan callen
It was, it was, back then.
joe rogan
Look, there's a national debate going on on whether or not women should have to go into the same restroom as transgender people.
That's a national debate.
Who would have ever thought that this country would be so concerned with hurting people's feelings that that would be a big part of the national debate?
unidentified
Big part.
joe rogan
But if a band went out and did that...
We'd be like, get the fuck out of here with that gay shit.
bryan callen
It's true.
brendan schaub
I would repost that shit.
bryan callen
You got the federal government now asking public schools that get public funds to create a separate bathroom for transgender people.
joe rogan
Okay, what's going on?
What's going on?
Is this just the internet?
Is it the pressure of groups on the internet?
Like, what is it about?
bryan callen
I think, like anything else, for the first time, the transgender community has a voice for the first time.
unidentified
Right.
bryan callen
And any time you have that...
You're going to have people that get very, very loud and this is their chance.
This is their moment to say, hey, we're here.
We've been in the closet forever and you're probably going to have the louder voices in that community and even the ones that are more extreme drive the debate.
The problem is that, you know, there are concerns for all of us.
For example, if you identify with a different sex, if it's really the Civil Rights Act was all about sex.
Right.
But now you're talking about now you're talking about discrimination based on how I perceive myself.
So I can be a man.
And if I put a wig on, but I say I'm a woman, I'm identifying with that gender by federal law.
Am I then allowed to go into a woman's bathroom?
Well, it becomes difficult, right?
brendan schaub
The problem I have, B, is like, I have to be cool with everything.
It might be a little weird to me if, you know, there's a dude in a dress.
I'm not used to that.
I didn't grow up around.
bryan callen
And you're allowed to feel weird about it.
brendan schaub
Or if Caitlyn Jenner's on the front of Vanity Fair.
Or how about Caitlyn Jenner now is saying, I might want to go back to Bruce.
Did you hear that?
bryan callen
No.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
So, I know you hate that shit, Joe, but I'm just saying, to me, it's a little weird that she's on the front cover of Sports Illustrated.
I'm like, dude, that used to be fucking Bruce.
And then I get called a homophobe or something like that, because to me, it's a little strange.
And I can't have questions about it.
You can't force me to accept it.
bryan callen
You're right.
This is the way to look at it, in my opinion.
You know, we have a lot of different minorities.
Let's just take transgender.
They're a sexual minority.
Forever they have been relegated to the, you know, the shadows.
You had to keep it a secret.
You felt different, etc., etc.
We know the stories.
What makes a country strong and great is the fact that this country is great.
And the difference between this country and, say, Russia is Russia has one idea of what strength is, and that is the biggest muscles and the biggest guns.
And the United States has that, too.
But remember, what makes this country strong and interesting as a culture is the fact that we create a safe haven for people who think and act differently.
That's where you get people like Marilyn Manson and Prince and great artists.
So the debate becomes, how do you make those people feel safe without creating major inconvenience for the vast majority of us who say, we may not have the funds for a third bathroom.
Now you're talking about an entire different infrastructure.
So how do we work around this?
brendan schaub
But we have the funds to set up electric centers for Teslas.
bryan callen
Well, it's a good debate to have.
I don't know what the answer is.
brendan schaub
Bro, I meant to talk to you guys off the show about this.
I found the Mr. Hands video.
joe rogan
Well, let's get back to this, because I don't think we're done with this.
bryan callen
You know what I'm saying?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Look, I definitely think that there is a spectrum of transgender people.
And I think there's people that you wouldn't even notice.
And then there's people that look a lot like men.
Want to identify with women and people are gonna be scared of them and there's gonna be weirdness involved with that because Not because the transgender people might be creepy But because we know that there are men that are predators that are not transgender men that are straight That's what I worry about and if you give them the opportunity to wear a dress and go into the women's room and just say they identify with being a woman What they wanted on North Carolina and this is where it gets interesting is It's not that you had to be a transgender
person.
Please, someone, correct me if I'm wrong, because I don't think I am.
It's not that you couldn't go in the bathroom if you're a transgender person.
It's you have to go into the bathroom that matches the gender on your birth certificate.
Now, if you're born a woman, but you want to be a man, you can get that changed on your birth certificate.
bryan callen
I didn't know that.
brendan schaub
Yeah, you can.
joe rogan
Yeah, apparently you can.
brendan schaub
Caitlyn Jenner did it.
joe rogan
So if they do that, if they get it changed, I don't know how they could change on your birth certificate 60 years later.
brendan schaub
Yeah, they do it.
joe rogan
Here's the problem.
Now we're in this weird semantics thing.
We're not talking about technical.
How fluid is gender?
I mean, we need to really define this before you just allow someone to wear a dress and go in a woman's dress.
bryan callen
Now it's how someone self-identifies.
And it's a very different area than the legislation that exists.
It's cloudy because now you're not talking about male-female.
You're not saying, hey, if you are in the pension plan in this company, because women live, say, 15 years longer or whatever it might be, you have to pay more into that pension plan.
As an example, that was unconstitutional because it was sex discrimination.
Now, these laws are concerned with How someone identifies.
It's very murky.
So you may have a penis, but you identify as a woman and you're taking hormones.
Now we're in a very, very strange...
joe rogan
But here's the thing, you don't even have to be taking hormones.
bryan callen
That's right.
joe rogan
You can just identify with being a woman and not want to do anything different than what you are right now and then go into women's rooms.
brendan schaub
Isn't that the exception though, Joe?
joe rogan
Yeah, there's plenty of exceptions.
brendan schaub
Well, because if you can say, ah, well, guys are going to put on dress and just to go look at little girls, but wouldn't that be the exception overall?
bryan callen
Always.
joe rogan
Perhaps.
Yes.
For sure.
Well, how many transgender people are using bathrooms?
That's the exception.
That's a huge exception.
brendan schaub
But the exception to that is that they're going to go in there just to look at little girls or molest little boys.
joe rogan
You're right.
But if it's one out of a hundred, it's something we should talk about.
If it's one out of a thousand...
brendan schaub
You can talk about it, but you can't make a decision based off the exception.
joe rogan
But you have to figure out what it is.
And that's where it gets almost impossible.
It's really hard to protect...
Women and children from creepy dudes.
And this is not a slight on transgenders at all.
bryan callen
We're not talking about transgender, we're talking about men who take advantage of that.
joe rogan
We're talking about heterosexual men who take advantage of a law.
This has nothing to do with transgenders.
Giving any possible loophole where a piece of shit creepy male predator is allowed to use a bathroom with a ten-year-old girl in it.
bryan callen
Under the sanction of the law.
joe rogan
Yes, under the sanction of the law.
brendan schaub
Oh, no, I get it.
joe rogan
Man, I don't know about all that.
brendan schaub
No, I'm not cool with it either.
joe rogan
Because when I send my daughter, Stephen Crowder, you're making a law for the exception in the first place.
To make a law that says that transgender people can use a woman's room is an exception.
Okay?
Because you are making a law about a very rare thing.
A rare thing that when you look at the entire internet and 7 billion people, you see millions of examples of it.
So you go, well, transgender community is strong.
We should recognize that they're being discriminated against.
And that's all good.
I think we all believe that, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah, for sure.
joe rogan
But that is a rare thing to make a law for when you're dealing with how many women have to use that restroom.
brendan schaub
So do you do nothing?
joe rogan
Hold on a second.
How many women have to use that restroom?
How many?
How many transgenders want to use that restroom?
What is the actual numbers that we're looking at before we start talking about this and having this goddamn national debate on it?
bryan callen
And creating new bathrooms.
joe rogan
Well, that might be the only way, but what are the fucking numbers?
Can we just get some data on what the numbers are?
brendan schaub
Is there any actual numbers?
Does anyone know?
joe rogan
There must be.
So, then, how many men are sexual predators?
Well, that's where it gets really fucking easy.
All you have to do is go to those sexual predator apps on your iPhone.
Everywhere you fucking look, there's sexual predators.
Now, it could be a lot of different things.
I know a dude...
Who got labeled a sexual predator because he got caught taking a piss outside.
bryan callen
Yep.
joe rogan
He went outside, he exposed his dick, he stepped outside of a bar and pissed.
And because of that- It's ridiculous.
It is ridiculous, but it's one of those backwoods country fuck states.
And it was in like the 1980s or something like that.
And this guy got arrested- Took a piss off a bar.
brendan schaub
Don't piss around a playground.
joe rogan
It's not just one guy that this happened to.
This happened to a bunch of guys.
Especially if you expose yourself anywhere near a school or something along those lines.
unidentified
That's what I'm saying.
brendan schaub
Don't piss around in elementary school.
joe rogan
Yeah, you're a sexual predator.
There's a lot of piece of shit men.
bryan callen
We all know what we mean by sexual predator.
joe rogan
The problem is, how do you define?
How do you define...
Look, there was an article that I read the other day about a guy with a beard.
He has a full beard, but he identifies as a woman.
He wants to be able to use women's rooms.
And he doesn't take hormones, but he is a woman.
He feels like he's a woman.
He doesn't want to have surgery, but he identifies as a woman.
brendan schaub
Can't have that.
bryan callen
So here's how I feel.
My daughter's eight years old.
joe rogan
How about that?
bryan callen
I'll tell you.
So my daughter's eight.
The other day I had to send her into a public bathroom at the movie theater.
I assume when I send my eight-year-old into a woman's bathroom that she's going to be safe because it's going to be little girls and women.
If there's a dude in there with a beard who says he identifies as a woman, I'm not letting my daughter go in that bathroom until that guy's out of there.
And you know why?
I don't know who that dude is.
And he might say he identifies as a woman.
He might be fucking crazy, too.
There's also that possibility.
But he's not getting near my daughter.
brendan schaub
He also might whoop your ass if you go in there.
bryan callen
Yeah, I also don't trust him.
brendan schaub
A big bearded dude.
bryan callen
And I'm allowed to say that.
brendan schaub
You can't have that.
joe rogan
And you're allowed to say that.
And someone will say, that's a woman, and you should say she's a woman.
bryan callen
No, I would say that's a man.
unidentified
Can't do that.
joe rogan
Okay, so when do we draw the line, man?
When do we draw the line?
unidentified
That's confusing.
joe rogan
When do we draw the line?
brendan schaub
It's tough, huh?
joe rogan
This was a big part of the Fallon Fox debate, about Fallon Fox becoming a transgender and then fighting women and saying she's a woman now, with a man's frame.
And then it becomes a sociological or a political issue more than a scientific and a fight analysis issue.
unidentified
That's right.
brendan schaub
Which is stupid because physically she's built like a man fighting little girls.
joe rogan
There's a bunch of differences.
brendan schaub
There's a shit difference.
joe rogan
Reaction time.
brendan schaub
That one's easy to me.
joe rogan
Reaction time.
brendan schaub
That one's easy to me.
joe rogan
And then there's also hips.
You know, the shape of the hips.
bryan callen
Yeah.
Power.
joe rogan
But then again, what the fuck do you do about someone like Gabby Garcia who's clearly taking male hormones?
Where does that fit in?
Look, if you're fighting against women, and if you're fighting against women who are just taking nothing, but you're taking male hormones, where's this line?
Is it penis, vagina?
Is that the only line?
Or is there a certain amount of hormones you take where you become a fucking dude?
And if you do it like Chasity Bono.
Chas Bono now.
So she takes the hormones.
She becomes he.
She becomes Chas.
That's male hormones turns her into a dude, right?
We all agree because she says it.
Well, it's Gabby Garcia on more or less than her.
brendan schaub
I'd say different, but more.
bryan callen
But I would suggest that question becomes relevant only when it begins to...
Interfere with your everyday routine, rights, when it starts getting into situations where you're going to have to share, for example, public space, a bathroom, something intimate.
joe rogan
No, in sports, it's even more.
unidentified
In sports, it's even more.
brendan schaub
In sports, it's way more important because if Gabby Garcia's on some shit, she's fighting some poor girl who's just on the regular protein.
But that's why it's illegal.
It's not illegal.
joe rogan
It's not illegal in Japan.
That's why...
And we're just assuming...
brendan schaub
Fallon Fox fought in America.
bryan callen
Yeah, that's a whole different situation.
brendan schaub
Toss them all to Cyborg.
joe rogan
How are we defining gender?
Are we defining it by your own personal choices?
Do you just decide, I'm this, I'm that?
brendan schaub
I feel like a girl.
I want to be Joanna, man.
bryan callen
I'm going WNBA. Let's talk about this.
If you looked at Cyborg this weekend, and she was fighting Leslie Smith.
brendan schaub
Bless her heart.
bryan callen
You look at Cyborg and she's a woman, of course, but there is something about her physicality that clearly she just looks like she was built to fucking bang on people like a drum.
joe rogan
Have you ever seen her first fight?
bryan callen
No.
joe rogan
She didn't look like that.
bryan callen
Okay.
joe rogan
A lot of it is...
brendan schaub
Genetically modified?
joe rogan
There's a lot of speculation as to what she did in order to look like that.
Here's one thing undeniable.
That woman works hard.
She runs six miles every day.
She trains like a fucking beast.
Apparently, according to her trainers, she has an insane work rate, right?
But...
She definitely has tested positive for something.
brendan schaub
She's tested positive, and also now she is in the UFC, and I'm not saying she's taking shit.
We've got to wait until the drug results come back in Brazil this past fight.
But at 140, at 135, she's by far the best female fighter in the UFC. Until you beat her, you ain't shit.
joe rogan
Dude, the way she ran through Leslie Smith, her technique is flawless.
unidentified
Flawless.
brendan schaub
The credit has to go to Jason Perillo, who's our boxing coach, because at her level, she's been doing it forever, right?
To take a fighter that has that many fights and to give them this set of skills now, because notice, this is what was most impressive to me in that fight.
She didn't get hit.
She had head movement, footwork, angles.
She didn't get hit.
Cyborg gets hit when she fights.
She'll trade, sit, bang Mike Tyson style.
She had footwork.
Leslie Smith didn't land a single punch.
I see that one.
Oh, shit.
Perillo should be getting all the credit.
And also, I've never worked with Perillo, nothing.
I'm just analyzing his fighters.
With Bisping, too.
Bisping boxed Anderson Silva's face-off.
A boxing clinic.
joe rogan
I don't know if you could shake like that and say face-off.
unidentified
Face-off.
I really don't.
brendan schaub
I mean, he did drop him.
Exaggerate the point to you?
joe rogan
Yeah, he did drop him.
brendan schaub
He dropped him, but he also landed the most shots ever on Anderson Silva.
Again, a veteran fighter in Bisbing who's been fighting forever.
What's the one common denominator?
joe rogan
Before I forget, the coach.
Do you think it was dirty when Anderson, jumping, kneed him in the face?
Or do you think that Michael Bisbing's not supposed to call him for a reset to pick up his mouthpiece?
brendan schaub
That's on Bisbing.
That's on Bisbing.
Because before every fight, Herb Dean or Big John Colton go, listen man, protect yourself at all times.
Don't stop unless I come in there and stop.
We all know that.
joe rogan
But he's trying to say my mouthpiece, he's talking to the ref, and wouldn't you think, would you agree, like when is there a break in the action, technically?
If a guy is talking to the referee, and he's moving away, and he's not in exchange, he's like, hey, I'll drop my mouthpiece, drop my mouthpiece, is that a break in the action?
Or is he calling for a break in the action, and it could be perceived that he's calling for a break in the action because the momentum is not shifting his way?
brendan schaub
Correct.
bryan callen
Look at Paul Hart.
brendan schaub
You can't stop until...
Dude, I'm fighting to the death.
That's a bad term there.
But until a ref tells me not, it's on, man.
So when I hit Crocob, that's on Herb Dean.
Step your 40 time up, son.
joe rogan
Okay, but should he be allowed to stop?
See, the break in the action thing is ambiguous.
Here's my thought.
If you move back, you move back, and you put your hands up, and you go, my mouthpiece, and you put your hands up.
You're calling for a break in the action, and the referee says, that's not your place.
Your place is to compete.
brendan schaub
Which is correct.
joe rogan
Or do they have to wait till an actual break in the action?
brendan schaub
I think they have to wait till an actual break.
joe rogan
But why is that?
Because you should not be able to fight.
Look, you should definitely be penalized.
Like, did you see when Simon Marcus fought, Joe Schilling kept spitting out his mouthpiece?
So they took a point away from him because they thought...
Because he kept spitting it out, that he was tired and he was trying to take a break.
brendan schaub
Which is what he was doing.
joe rogan
Some guys do do that.
So in order to stop that from happening, they penalize you.
brendan schaub
Veterans do it.
joe rogan
But a referee, if he knows that your mouthpiece is out, he should stop the fight.
So it's real tricky.
He might be looking at something else though, right?
You really shouldn't be able to...
See, the problem is like lips and gums with teeth, with raw teeth, your face getting fucked up, man.
brendan schaub
But Biz being in Anderson, we're kind of in it.
It was like, it was kind of in it and it came out and he's like, no, no, no, stop, stop.
He also was like, what?
joe rogan
Yes.
bryan callen
He turned and pointed at his mouthpiece.
Remember when Paul Harris with Nate Markor turned the ref and said, hey, he's got slippery stuff on his ankle and Nate just dove in and went, That's got to be on the fighter who voluntarily, unilaterally takes a minute to...
brendan schaub
It's also not dirty.
It's not dirty because as a fighter, dude, it's a very dangerous sport.
I see any glimpse where I can get an advantage, I'm fucking going.
joe rogan
Like Floyd Mayweather and Victor Ortiz.
brendan schaub
I have no problem with that.
bryan callen
That, to me, was fucked up.
brendan schaub
It's not, though.
joe rogan
No, no.
brendan schaub
It's a fight.
bryan callen
He came up and said, hey, man, sorry.
brendan schaub
No, they already said sorry twice.
And he goes, come on, man.
joe rogan
Nah, it's bullshit.
bryan callen
It's not bullshit.
unidentified
It's a fight.
joe rogan
You know what that was?
I'll tell you what it was.
Victor, he's at a mental breakdown.
He was succumbing to the pressure.
He was fouling Floyd.
He was head-butting him.
And he got penalized for it.
When he got penalized for it, he wanted to make friends with Floyd.
And in the making friends part, like, I'm sorry, bro.
Look, a lot of times you can't have that in a fight.
You can't have that in a fight because the disruption of your focus, it's adding in this emotional connection with this person.
Now this person's your buddy.
Like, hey, we're bros.
We're bros, right?
Let's go back to fighting.
And Floyd's like, fuck you.
Left hook, right hand.
Go to sleep, bitch.
brendan schaub
And Ortiz is known for that.
Breaking.
Yes.
He just got knocked out by Berto.
Cold-blooded.
joe rogan
Yeah, man.
I think he's done, right?
brendan schaub
Probably should be.
joe rogan
It seems like when he got really famous and things started taking off, like...
He didn't really have the same...
Yeah, the Expendables.
brendan schaub
He was doing well against Berto.
The first five rounds, I'm like, shit, here he is.
Because you remember, they built him up as the next Oscar De La Hoya.
He was like the golden boy.
And then it just never worked out for him.
bryan callen
The two fights I want to see is Golovkin, Canelo, and I want to see Kovalev, Andre Ward.
joe rogan
Kovalev and Andre Ward's gonna be crazy.
brendan schaub
That's happening for sure.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's happening.
bryan callen
God, I can't wait for that.
joe rogan
Andre Ward is so smart.
brendan schaub
He just has to fight more.
joe rogan
He's so smart, but there might not be enough.
Might not be enough against Kovalev, man.
bryan callen
It's so hard.
joe rogan
Well, he's not just so hard.
He's skillful as fuck.
brendan schaub
He killed a guy.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Killed a guy in the ring.
joe rogan
And he doesn't seem to bother at all.
brendan schaub
No, he doesn't give a fuck.
How about, and it's kind of stupid to talk about, but it has legs.
Floyd Mayweather, Conor McGregor.
joe rogan
It doesn't have any legs.
brendan schaub
It kind of does.
joe rogan
It does.
brendan schaub
It kind of does.
You know why?
Because Floyd wants it.
joe rogan
It doesn't matter.
UFC's not going to let it happen.
brendan schaub
Well, but see, the only reason why I disagree with you there is because Dana goes, if Floyd wants to make that fight happen, call me.
Dana's a businessman.
They care about money.
You know how big that fight would be?
joe rogan
How much money do you think they could make if Floyd Mayweather fights Conor McGregor?
brendan schaub
Biggest pay-per-view of all time?
unidentified
No.
Isn't that crazy?
brendan schaub
You don't think so?
bryan callen
No.
unidentified
Easily!
joe rogan
It might be.
It might be.
brendan schaub
What are you knowing?
bryan callen
Boxing, boxing, boxing.
joe rogan
What are you knowing?
brendan schaub
Conor McGregor's the biggest draw already in UFC. Mayweather's the biggest pay-per-view draw in boxing of all time.
You mixed the world.
Everyone would tune in, including your dad.
joe rogan
I would tune in.
You tell me you wouldn't tune in?
bryan callen
No, because I would...
brendan schaub
You're full of shit!
joe rogan
You're so full of shit.
bryan callen
It's not an interesting fight.
It's a very uninteresting fight.
joe rogan
You should have taken two hits instead of a little baby fake hit.
bryan callen
Very uninteresting fight.
brendan schaub
No, it's fascinating.
joe rogan
I'm going to spark up his joint.
bryan callen
So what would happen is Floyd Mayweather would box with Conor McGregor and basically move around and be like, all right, here goes, and it'd be a spectacle.
It's just not a fight.
It wouldn't be a fight.
joe rogan
What are you, a fucking...
Party Pooper?
Pissing in our Cheerios.
brendan schaub
This is the thing.
You've got to remember, the one thing that Dana and Floyd Mayweather, who would be responsible for putting this fight together, and Conor for that matter, all they care about is money and numbers.
That fight would be money and fucking numbers.
It would break Pacquiao Mayweather, can't it?
bryan callen
Okay, I know, but what I'm saying is that how would they do in that fight?
So Floyd probably could knock him out anytime he wanted, right?
joe rogan
No.
No.
Conor has a very good chin.
I mean, Conor got knocked out by Nate Diaz, or he got knocked down and hurt, stunned, wobbled by Nate Diaz.
Yeah.
Little gloves, first of all.
Nate's a really good puncher.
Nate's a big guy.
Nate's fought at 170. He's a lot bigger than Floyd, like physically a lot bigger.
brendan schaub
Way bigger.
joe rogan
Yeah.
unidentified
But...
joe rogan
Floyd is a guy who's broken his hands many many times, and he's not known for like really uncorking all of his might and trying to knock guys out.
brendan schaub
Not a knockout artist in the least bit.
joe rogan
But he could.
He certainly could.
You know, it's not that Floyd doesn't hit real hard, but when you box real smart, knockouts come.
The opportunity comes, like the Ricky Hatton fight.
That's a perfect example.
That knockout came.
It's not like he went looking for it.
The Victor Ortiz fight, Victor just fucked up.
And he just left-hooked right-handed.
And it was a total sucker punch.
He had no idea what was going on.
brendan schaub
But look when Mayweather has issues.
Against a guy like Maydana.
Are you suggesting...
bryan callen
First fight.
joe rogan
Second fight, he boxed the shit out of him.
brendan schaub
He did, but if Maydana...
If I was Conor's coach and that fight were to happen, I'm like, hey man, don't be pretty and sit on the outside and try and hit this guy.
We make this a dogfight.
You're the bigger guy.
bryan callen
You think Conor would actually give...
Floyd Mayweather, a boxing match?
Is that what I'm hearing?
joe rogan
No, that's not what anybody's saying.
No.
brendan schaub
I'm saying he'd be the biggest draw and be interesting.
joe rogan
I'm saying that I don't think Floyd would just go out and try to knock him out in the first round.
bryan callen
Oh, you mean he'd just, yeah, he'd box him.
joe rogan
I think he would Canelo Alvarez him, but, you know, obviously Canelo's way more skillful in boxing.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
I mean, Canelo is a world champion, one-punch knockout artist boxer.
I mean, that fucking Amir Khan knockout.
Jesus, Louisa.
bryan callen
You know what Floyd said?
joe rogan
That was a super fucking home run on the button.
bryan callen
Dude.
Floyd got hit, he said, when he fought Canelo, he got punched in the thigh by Canelo.
Had trouble walking for two days.
He didn't show it.
After the fight, he was like, dude, my thigh.
He punched me in the thigh so hard, I am having trouble walking.
joe rogan
That's why Floyd is never going to fight MMA. Because Conor would fucking break his legs.
brendan schaub
Like, literally.
MMA would be more embarrassing than Conor doing just boxing.
joe rogan
Way more embarrassing.
brendan schaub
He would get...
joe rogan
Way more embarrassing.
Because Conor's a big guy, Floyd would have to box smart.
I don't think Conor...
I think Conor would have...
It's just an unbelievably difficult time even coming close to hitting him.
If he was straight boxing, he's probably going to get embarrassed.
brendan schaub
You're talking about, if not the greatest boxer of all time, and his defense is good.
It would be a great show.
joe rogan
You can't say good.
It's the best defense ever.
brendan schaub
For sure.
unidentified
Best defense ever.
joe rogan
Who's got better defense than Floyd?
brendan schaub
And now you're taking a guy who, he's an elite striker in the UFC, but boxing's a different game, man.
joe rogan
You know, I would have loved to seen Canelo fight Floyd, like, in a couple of years, when Canelo's, like, 27, 28. You know, when he has the experience.
Because I think, like, if you look at, like, Sugary Leonard versus Roberto Duran, like, both guys were, like, really in their prime.
brendan schaub
Experience in their prime.
joe rogan
World champions.
The moment wasn't too big.
Great style.
And sometimes, you know, I mean, sometimes...
Like your prime comes early, like Tyson.
And sometimes your prime comes later, like Bernard Hopkins.
But when a guy's in his prime, you know he's in his prime.
I think Canelo wasn't in his prime when he fought Floyd.
brendan schaub
I think he's getting there.
If I'm Canelo's management, and as a fan, I won't see Canelo Triple G. And granted, they say Canelo's probably going to have to vacate in his belt if he doesn't fight Triple G. That's what they're saying.
At that weight.
joe rogan
Why does he want 155?
That's not middleweight.
Why are they saying he's making all these fights at 155 and they're calling him middleweight because it's over 154?
brendan schaub
Yeah, they have a weird thing going on.
That's what's wrong with boxing.
But if I'm Canelo's camp, I'm not setting that fight up yet, man.
As a fan, I'm like, dear God, make that fight happen.
As a businessman, a manager, I'm like, Canelo, you ain't fighting Triple G right now.
We're going to do a couple more big paydays.
Also, you've got to remember, Triple G's not a draw.
We know him wearing the fight game.
He's not a draw at all.
His pay-per-view did, I think, $125,000, $125,000.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
Brandon, listen.
Big drama show.
brendan schaub
Big drama show.
I give you drama show.
unidentified
Serious business.
joe rogan
I've won the belt.
Serious business.
brendan schaub
I love that guy.
joe rogan
He's awesome, man.
brendan schaub
He's the best, but he's just not as far as being a pay-per-view drawing power.
He's not there yet.
joe rogan
So give Canelo 70-30 and knock him the fuck out.
brendan schaub
He won't do it.
He won't do it.
You toss Canelo like Lemieux or someone else so he can just merc and keep building his name.
joe rogan
Well, he wants it to be 160 and Canelo wants it to be 155. Apparently that's a hold-up.
Triple G's a bigger guy.
If Triple G has to drop down five pounds, they think it'll be enough to weaken him and maybe Canelo can have a chance and they can slug it out in the trenches.
bryan callen
Why does he hit so hard?
joe rogan
If you look at the fight, the actual fight itself, when Amir Khan just fought Canelo, he did expose that speed and movement are still a problem.
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
He doesn't have the same speed or the same movement as Floyd, but his speed and movement were a bit of a problem.
brendan schaub
Gave him some real issues.
joe rogan
Gave him some real issues.
brendan schaub
That 1-2 was landing all night.
joe rogan
Yes, especially in the first round.
The first round he lit him up with some straight right hands.
I was like, ooh, okay.
How's this going to play out?
But I think that there's no one else in that division that can do that.
Cotto couldn't do it to him.
Canelo outboxed Cotto.
I mean, and then Floyd was really the only guy to expose it, but Floyd's Floyd.
There's no other Floyds.
So who the fuck else is in the division?
brendan schaub
I think Triple G, Canelo right now, it'd be a bad decision for Canelo.
joe rogan
Well, Terrence Crawford's 147. So talented.
147 and 154 are next door neighbors.
brendan schaub
How weird is it?
They fight over like two and three pounds.
joe rogan
It's crazy.
brendan schaub
Fucking make the weight.
Shut your mouth.
joe rogan
It's so different than MMA in that regard.
brendan schaub
It's so weird.
joe rogan
MMA, you're dealing with, you know, from middleweight to light heavyweight, which guys jump back and forth, you're dealing with 20 fucking pounds.
I mean, that's madness.
bryan callen
You think there should be more weight classes?
joe rogan
Fuck yeah!
I've been saying this from the jump.
There should be a weight class every 10 pounds.
And they're like, well, if there's too many champions, it waters it down.
I completely disagree.
You're telling me some of these amazing fighters that you have that are superstars, like a Donald Cerrone, like a Diego Sanchez, like all these different guys that are just amazing guys that never won a title, that are huge fan favorites, right?
If you look at all these different guys, Uriah Faber is another one.
You're telling me those guys couldn't have been champions and you wouldn't have had even more champions and an even crazier thing if there was a weight class every 10 pounds?
brendan schaub
And a better product.
Because you're getting better performances.
Because Donald's not destroying his body to make 55. You're not having these monsters make these weight classes.
And they're actual world champions.
Think about the sponsorships, celebrities.
joe rogan
There's not enough weight classes.
There's not enough weight classes.
brendan schaub
206 or 265, how dare you?
bryan callen
That's crazy.
brendan schaub
That's crazy.
joe rogan
God damn it.
But what's interesting is the best guys seem to flatten out around 240. So my thought is...
Let's make a 240. Let's make that heavyweight and then 240 to 265. The world champions, the better.
Or all the way up.
brendan schaub
The only time you can't is like...
A little bit of a problem is with Cyborg, right?
Because she goes, I'll fight anyone at 140, but at 140, I heard from my stories, it was a beast for her to get to.
joe rogan
I think she's the 145-pound Invicta champion.
They have a 135 in the UFC. Make a 145!
brendan schaub
I think you can do 140!
Why 40?
joe rogan
Why 5 pounds?
unidentified
She can make 40!
joe rogan
But why do it?
Why make her make it?
She's a 145-pound champ.
brendan schaub
I know, but there's not a lot of...
All the superstars at 135 can make 140. To make them put on 10 pounds, build it, they will come.
bryan callen
That's how it always is.
brendan schaub
I'm saying right now, Mr. Rogan.
joe rogan
We're trying right now.
We can understand.
She's the Invicta champion, so she's fighting people in Invicta.
unidentified
Hey, hey, hey.
joe rogan
Yeah, look, she's better than all of them anyway.
Doesn't matter.
But you shouldn't be forcing her to kill herself when 145 is already an established weight class.
Misha Tate was the 145 pound champion in Strikeforce.
It's an established weight class.
brendan schaub
Misha said she would fight her, too.
joe rogan
It's an established weight class.
brendan schaub
I think at 140, though.
joe rogan
Well, listen, Holly Holm's fought people in boxing as high as 152. But 145 is an established weight class.
brendan schaub
Who the fuck could sign up to fight Cyborg?
bryan callen
How does Holly Holm do against Cyborg?
joe rogan
Holly Holm has the best chance because Cyborg is a ruthless marauder.
She's like a berserker, attacker, shoot-the-box style.
brendan schaub
Not this last fight.
joe rogan
No, she wasn't.
brendan schaub
This last fight.
More tactical.
And those hits, I was like, oh shit!
unidentified
Leslie, run!
joe rogan
Yeah, that counter right hand's nasty.
bryan callen
And she kicks.
joe rogan
She kicks hard.
Knees hard.
Of course she's mad at the stoppage.
She's a beast.
brendan schaub
She should be celebrating that stuff.
joe rogan
She should definitely thank the referee.
The referee saved her from herself.
But she's just so tough.
bryan callen
She's a fighter.
joe rogan
She's so tough.
That's what you want.
She wanted to go out on our shield.
But she was already gone.
She doesn't understand.
brendan schaub
That ground and pound?
That shit is...
El Fedor days.
joe rogan
Nasty.
brendan schaub
She was punching a bitch in the face.
joe rogan
She's so much more advanced than anybody else.
bryan callen
Crazy.
joe rogan
So much more advanced.
brendan schaub
I think we've got to chalk it up to Perillo.
joe rogan
Well, she's different than Holly.
See, Holly is a counter-striker, and Holly also had a really brutal knockout in boxing against a larger woman.
It's nasty.
I've watched it, and I was like, whoa.
It's the kind of knockout that you never really fight That way again, because you realize the consequences now.
Someone gets brutally, brutally knocked out.
They're aware of that as a consequence, and I think she's become much more of a defensive-minded counter-striker, which was super effective against Ronda, obviously.
brendan schaub
It's better, I think, for her.
joe rogan
Right, but it didn't look so good against Misha, because Misha was fighting super smart, and when Misha took her down...
Well, it's also because Misha doesn't rush after.
Misha's varying her rhythm, she's standing outside.
brendan schaub
Misha fought amazing, but I also thought, for whatever reason, Holly didn't fight like herself.
She wasn't pulling the trigger.
joe rogan
She doesn't like the lead.
She doesn't like the lead, and she's worried about being taken down.
When she got taken down by Misha, we realized why she doesn't like the lead.
unidentified
Correct.
joe rogan
Misha took her down, beat the shit out of her on the ground, destroyed her in that second round.
Was on top of her most of the round, just beating her ass.
And so we knew, look, if Misha gets her down, she's fucked.
So then she fights like a craftsman for the third and fourth round.
She just fights real smart, stays on the outside, edges those rounds, and then Misha's forced to go for broke in the fifth.
And Misha wound up taking her out and choking her out.
brendan schaub
Great story, man.
joe rogan
But here's the thing.
Cyborgs...
Way better on the ground.
I mean, way better on the ground.
brendan schaub
And stronger.
joe rogan
Way, way better on the ground than Holly.
Way, way better.
Way better.
Cyborg wins straight jiu-jitsu competitions.
She is fucking strong.
brendan schaub
Twist your fucking face, though.
joe rogan
She suplexes bitches.
She's just made to fight rag-dolling bitches.
And if she gets on top of you, oh my god.
Her grounded pound?
unidentified
I was like, what the fuck are we doing?
bryan callen
She looks like a panther.
Like, she looks like...
It's almost like she was put on the earth for one thing.
When she's in that cage, you're just like...
brendan schaub
To me, no one's doing shit until you beat her.
joe rogan
Yeah, she's built herself into that.
brendan schaub
It's taken so long for her to finally get her.
Now she's here, and everyone's like, God.
joe rogan
And even when she's here, man, they did it in Brazil, and they did it at 140. They made her suffer.
In my personal choice, I would have had the first ever 145-pound fight in the UFC, let a bunch of people sign up to be who wants to get in there and duke it out with Cyborg.
brendan schaub
Ain't no one signing up for that, my man.
That's the problem.
joe rogan
But I think you've got Invicta girls that are agreeing to fight her.
So if you've got Invicta girls that are agreeing to fight her, you're telling me those girls wouldn't take a fight in the UFC? Of course they would.
brendan schaub
I'm telling you no one would care.
bryan callen
Frank Edgar.
joe rogan
It doesn't matter.
It's the cyborg show.
Dude, it's the cyborg show.
brendan schaub
Right now, dude.
joe rogan
This is Mike Tyson versus people that you don't know.
It's Tony Tubbs.
Mike Tyson versus Tony Tubbs.
brendan schaub
Easy.
She has a ways to go before she's Mike Tyson.
She just got introduced to regular fans.
joe rogan
But I'm saying, when you went to see Mike Tyson versus Tony Tubbs, you didn't think Tony Tubbs was going to win.
brendan schaub
I'm a Tony Tubbs fan.
joe rogan
You went to see the Mike Tyson show.
brendan schaub
No, I was there to see Tony Tubbs' footwork.
I'm with you.
I'm just saying, if you're Misha's manager and they're like, hey, we need you to fight at 145 Cyborg.
joe rogan
I think Misha would take that fight in a heartbeat.
Misha would take it.
brendan schaub
Everyone else is like, nope.
joe rogan
That ain't a good move.
Everyone else is like, nope.
And listen, you know, Cyborg, like, go back to the Gina Carano fight.
Cyborg had problems in that fight.
So people don't understand, Gina Carano had her mounted.
Gina Carano was a tough fucking girl.
They duked it out.
Gina literally was on top of her, had her mounted.
Cyborg wasn't the same Cyborg back then, but Cyborg was way more shredded back then.
She was like a bodybuilder, man.
She was terrifying.
Just the physical muscular, the muscularity and the power that she had.
There's a picture that I'll never forget, man.
If I have a list of all my iconic memories of photographs in MMA, there's one where Cyborg is grabbing...
The head of Gina Carano.
She's got her fingers out.
She's got an MMA glove on with nail polish on.
And she's about to punch her in the face.
And Gina's face is already fucked up.
And Cyborg's holding her head.
brendan schaub
I'm not trying to see that picture.
joe rogan
There it is, right there.
unidentified
Look at that.
brendan schaub
God dog!
joe rogan
Look at that.
Come on, son.
unidentified
Damn!
joe rogan
That is an iconic photo.
Look at the eyes.
The cold-blooded killer.
brendan schaub
It looks like Cyborg's in the back going, shh!
Shut the fuck up!
joe rogan
Boom!
She's dropping a right hand on her fucking jaw right there, crushing her.
brendan schaub
You feel that, bitch?
joe rogan
And this is, by the way, the cyborg that you're watching...
But look at the muscles on her fucking shoulder and her arm.
And the cyborg you're looking at today...
The cyborg you look at today would fuck this cyborg up.
brendan schaub
For sure.
joe rogan
She's better now.
She's super fucking dedicated, man.
brendan schaub
She's just doing the damn thing.
joe rogan
Ever seen some of the videos of her training at Phuket top team?
bryan callen
Nope.
brendan schaub
Kicking bitches faces up.
unidentified
Good lord.
joe rogan
She spends a lot of time in Thailand.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
Running hills and training with men.
Dude.
brendan schaub
I saw her man, the old man, with this cyborg, Santos, fighting Bellator.
This past weekend.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
brendan schaub
He fought.
joe rogan
Well, he lost.
brendan schaub
He committed to a knee bar.
joe rogan
It's weird.
brendan schaub
A guy of his stature.
joe rogan
Because he won in the first fight with a knee bar.
brendan schaub
Yeah, so this time he committed to it.
And he's getting hit.
I'm like, for sure let go of that knee bar.
For sure let go of that knee bar.
And it's too late.
bryan callen
There's a picture of her and him.
Her husband and her.
brendan schaub
Oh, they have some photoshoots.
bryan callen
And just their backs.
Their backs.
And her back is every bit as wide.
brendan schaub
No, they have one where I think it's just asses, and it's both of them just like...
joe rogan
That's unfortunate.
bryan callen
There's that picture where you see them...
brendan schaub
Oh, no, it's awesome.
joe rogan
They should have some friends talk them out of those kind of photos.
brendan schaub
Oh, I disagree.
It's like a Brazilian cologne out of some shit.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Açaí cologne.
unidentified
Açaí.
Bumbaya.
brendan schaub
Like the beach.
Bumbaya.
joe rogan
I don't think it's Bumbaya.
brendan schaub
What do they say?
joe rogan
Bom dia?
No.
brendan schaub
How about Matt Brown?
Could it have gone any worse?
joe rogan
I didn't see it.
My goddamn DVR fucked up somehow.
My kids put like Max and Ruby on or some shit.
brendan schaub
They cancels.
joe rogan
You know how sometimes people try to have two things?
My wife will move up the kids' shows to the top of the order.
So I didn't even watch the fight.
brendan schaub
So he gets fucked up by the fans.
And they kicked this fan out, by the way.
The fan punched him in the face because he was flipping everyone off at Wayne's.
And then his old coach, after the fight, he's in the hotel.
joe rogan
And they're smacking him in the head, man.
A couple guys smacked him in the head.
brendan schaub
They took that dude out of the arena, though.
joe rogan
Yeah, but a couple guys smacked him in the head as he's running in before the guy punched him.
unidentified
I know.
brendan schaub
I'm saying they took one of the guys out and smacked him.
unidentified
Right.
joe rogan
Oh, did they?
Well, they should have taken all of them.
brendan schaub
I agree, stupid host.
Hey, security, step your fucking game up.
joe rogan
But it's just embarrassing.
brendan schaub
Goddamn.
Look at that.
joe rogan
Boom.
Oh, shit.
brendan schaub
He rocked someone, though.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, dude.
He uncorked a bomb on someone's face.
That guy got Matt Browned in the face.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he did.
But then Damien Maia said, welcome to my country.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
About to choke your ass out.
I love Matt Brown, too.
joe rogan
I didn't see the fight, man.
Can we find the fight, Jamie?
See if we can find the fight.
So we'll do commentary.
brendan schaub
But how about afterwards he's in the hotel and his old coach sucker punched him in the back of the head.
joe rogan
That's what I heard.
brendan schaub
And then got his old coach?
joe rogan
Matt Brown's coach?
brendan schaub
Matt Brown's old grappling coach sucker punched him in the back of the head and then he runs off.
Oh no, you ain't running because Matt Brown's coaches are around.
Leicester Bowling and his other Jiu-Jitsu coach, they catch this dude.
Beat the brakes off of him.
Is that right?
Then he got arrested.
Reed Harris was just like, hey!
Just went all aggro.
Caught this dude.
bryan callen
Why'd they punch him in the back of the head?
brendan schaub
Because they have a history.
bryan callen
What an asshole.
joe rogan
Yeah, but can you...
brendan schaub
I've got to pee on my big huge dick.
I'll be right back.
joe rogan
Let us know about it.
Think about it.
bryan callen
He's all trimmed up, huh?
joe rogan
How much has he lost?
bryan callen
I swear to God, he's got to be...
He usually walked around at 255 in every bit.
He's probably 240 right now.
joe rogan
Has it made you think about changing your diet?
bryan callen
No.
joe rogan
You like eating bread and shit?
bryan callen
Yeah.
I do well with carbs, like rice.
I eat pretty clean.
Rice, potatoes.
I don't mind it.
I don't think I'm the body type.
I think I'd get even skinnier, dude.
For me, I need all the carbs I can get.
I sleep well on carbs.
joe rogan
Have you ever tried not having them?
bryan callen
No.
joe rogan
So how do you know?
bryan callen
No.
I mean, I have though, actually, and that's not true.
I stay very far away from sugar.
joe rogan
Yeah, but that's, I think, the most important thing.
bryan callen
Yeah.
I don't eat sugar.
joe rogan
That's what I was telling people when the first attempt at doing something, I tried gluten, no gluten.
But I think the real issue is I wasn't eating bread.
So if I'm not eating bread, I'm not getting sugar.
bryan callen
Exactly.
Exactly.
And when I, and I don't eat a lot of bread because I'm aware of, because I monitor my body.
Like, so if I eat two slices, even of really good bread, I notice that my energy kind of, it's not the same as if I eat slow cooked oatmeal, I feel really good.
joe rogan
Right.
bryan callen
You know?
jamie vernon
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
There's definitely some spikes going on, some insulin spikes going on when you eat sugar and you eat bread and we're just used to them.
bryan callen
Remember, I don't eat a lot either.
That's the other thing.
I'm not a big eater to begin with.
Oh, we got the fight.
joe rogan
Here it is.
Damian Mayan, Matt Brown.
This is round three?
Oh, okay.
We don't know what was going on before that, but we assume it was good.
bryan callen
They don't look too...
joe rogan
Oh, he's sprawling.
He's trying to keep it standing up.
Damian Mayan's doing a good job of standing on the outside of...
But he's making it real obvious that he wants to take him down.
He shoots in.
He has to move away from the kick.
He's so big at 170. Maya's a beast at 170. I've never seen him in person.
I mean, he fought for the title at 185. He's a big guy.
Ooh, good jab there by Maya, and he tries to take down again.
And Matt Brown punches him, and he...
And Matt Brown gets on top.
This is where he fucked up, man.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
You can't do that, dude.
That's a trap.
bryan callen
Can't let Damien trap you.
joe rogan
We thought he hurt him.
You know, he didn't really hurt him.
Damian Maia did exactly...
Brendan Schaub just returns.
He did exactly what we were saying about Fabrizio Verdun with Fedor.
He pretends he gets hurt, and Matt Brown moved in to try to finish him, and then Maia got a hold of him.
brendan schaub
Are you talking about the ultimate honey dick?
joe rogan
And Maia drags him to the ground.
This is how confident he is in his jiu-jitsu.
He lets him mount him.
brendan schaub
Fuck.
joe rogan
I mean, he drags him to the ground just to do this, just to sweep him, and now Matt Brown's fucked.
That sequence, that whole sequence was so advanced, what he just did there.
He let Matt Brown drag him down, and Matt Brown, his instincts as a destroyer were to immediately get on top of him.
brendan schaub
Because he's not seeing that in training.
No one's doing that in training.
joe rogan
No, especially not allowing him to potentially knock him out with some ground and pound.
But Damien Maia's jiu-jitsu is so solid and so slick that whatever shot attempts he gets off, mostly it deflected, and then he eventually sweeps him, and now he's mounting him up against a cage.
And Matt Brown right now is in quicksand.
When you have Damian Maia on top of you and your legs are pinned together like that, that's terrifying.
Because what he's done here is he's isolated his legs with a triangle.
So by having those legs extended like that, he has no power from his hips.
He can't throw any punches, he can't get his feet back under him, and he can't get those legs back.
So he's got to commit with his hands.
So he's got to push down with his hands, and while he's pushing down with his hands, Maia can punch him in the face.
And so finally he gets his half guard back up, but whatever, good luck with that.
He'll get these butterflies, and Maya will just sit on your legs, wear them out, put pressure on you, and then when you stand up, he'll just get to an even better position.
brendan schaub
He does this for all three rounds, by the way.
joe rogan
Well, this is what he does, man.
He did it to Rick Story.
Rick Story is a gorilla.
He's a gorilla wrestler who walks around at 200, cuts down to 170, and Damian Maya ragdolled him, man.
brendan schaub
See, that wasn't that impressive.
He did it to Gunnar Nelson.
joe rogan
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
brendan schaub
And then Neil Magny was like, oh, you're on a win streak?
That's cool.
Check this out.
Yeah.
joe rogan
He just shuts you down on the ground.
bryan callen
How about the fact that Jake Shields beat Damian Maia?
brendan schaub
Sure did.
joe rogan
In a grappling contest.
bryan callen
It's crazy.
joe rogan
Jake Shields is legit one of the best in the world as a grappler.
One of the best in the world.
brendan schaub
Jake beat him in the UFC. Yeah.
joe rogan
I mean, but that's why.
Because if they were grappling, Jake would give them a hell of a fucking run.
Jake is a beast, dude.
His grappling is absolutely world-class.
His problem in the UFC has always been his speed and his striking.
He's just not a dangerous striker in the way a lot of guys are.
brendan schaub
It's not even that.
He's a boring fighter.
Not to me, to the brass.
So you look at who he's beat.
He's beat the very best.
He's beat, I think, all top five guys.
He's beat Robbie Lawler.
He's beat all these guys.
Damian Maia, Woodley.
bryan callen
Hey, you would know this answer.
joe rogan
Look, he's trying to protect himself, but it's just futile.
It's just when Maya gets that body triangle around on you, he's just constantly manipulating you.
He doesn't try in one direction only.
He's setting up escape doors.
So if you try to move through one of those escape doors, a new trap is waiting for you.
brendan schaub
And those traps you're not going to see because that's from years and years and years.
So your basic movements that usually get you out aren't going to happen.
bryan callen
Ouch!
Ouch!
Right in the face over and over.
brendan schaub
Yeah, don't say ouch though, huh?
bryan callen
Hey, let me ask you this.
You would know this.
Why, when they showed the top contenders in the 185-pound weight class, was Yoel Romero not there?
Because he just got cleared to fight again.
joe rogan
Well, he didn't get cleared to fight again.
brendan schaub
No.
joe rogan
They cleared the possibility that he might get a lesser sentence because they found the supplement that he took.
But you're not supposed to take supplements.
When you just buy some shit at GNC, he's just beating on him and manipulating him with that body triangle, man.
Crazy.
bryan callen
I thought he was cleared to fight in two months or something.
joe rogan
No, I don't think they've made a clear decision yet, but they've opened the door for him.
unidentified
Look at that.
joe rogan
Oh my god, he tried to punch back behind him.
brendan schaub
I'm surprised he did that.
joe rogan
Well, he's done now.
Once it's under the neck, he's done.
brendan schaub
This one's over.
joe rogan
There's not much you can do.
brendan schaub
How badass is Matt Brown, though?
joe rogan
Oh my god.
I mean, he's badass, but I'm just so impressed with Damian Maia.
I mean, how do you not be impressed with Damian Maia?
brendan schaub
You think title shot next for Maia?
joe rogan
Fuck yeah.
brendan schaub
Has to be, right?
joe rogan
Fuck yeah.
And by the way...
brendan schaub
He's ran through all these young guys.
joe rogan
If he gets those guys down, they're all fucked.
They're all fucked.
Damian Maia, if you don't knock him out, and at 170, that ain't no picnic, because he can strike.
He can hit hard, man.
brendan schaub
Well, if he decides to strike with Robbie Lawler, I'm just kidding.
joe rogan
I don't think he will.
I mean, I don't think he will.
He's gonna try to turn him into one of these.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
Dude, he's the master.
When it comes to jiu-jitsu, he is the UFC master.
Because he is, out of all the guys, he's the one guy that's fought the most intelligently with jiu-jitsu.
Because look at Fabrizio.
His striking got better, he got better with striking, but his striking ultimately cost him.
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
Whereas, Maia has just never gone off track.
brendan schaub
This is new, though.
This new winning streak.
Because remember before, it's like...
unidentified
170. Yeah, 170. Because he went down to 170. Yeah, at 185, he was trying to strike with dudes.
brendan schaub
He was too small.
He was striking too much.
He was too small.
joe rogan
He wasn't strong enough to overwhelm them at 170. Or at 185. But at 170, he is.
brendan schaub
He's going to be tough to beat, man.
joe rogan
Fuck yeah, he is.
bryan callen
Yeah, I want to see...
I'm excited to see Jacare fight Luke...
unidentified
Yes.
bryan callen
Speaking of jujitsu.
joe rogan
Well, Luke's got to get past Weidman.
You know, the rematch with Weidman is going to be crazy.
brendan schaub
It's going to be interesting.
joe rogan
Look, Weidman made a big mistake in that fight.
Before that big mistake, it was a very close fight.
It was like, who knows what was going on.
And now Weidman says he had a broken foot, but Luke said he had a bad staph infection.
You know more than anybody.
When you go into fights, most of the time, you're not 100%.
brendan schaub
You're not 100%, and with Weidman, from what I hear from his camp and from him, it was the worst camp of his life.
Like, he knew he needed to change things, but he thought he was so talented, he's a real champ, he's fine.
He doesn't need to do anything.
joe rogan
Why was it the worst camp?
brendan schaub
I guess he had injuries and certain things.
He should have been flying people in.
He just didn't.
He should have been going somewhere else, working with Mark Henry more and doing other stuff.
He was just like, I'm good, man.
I'm champ.
He kind of got comfortable.
It ended up costing him.
joe rogan
This is no...
This is no gimme fight for either guy.
brendan schaub
For either guy.
This is a war.
joe rogan
This is a war.
bryan callen
It's a war.
joe rogan
You know, I mean, Rockhold thinks he's gonna run through him this time because he thinks he doesn't have a staph infection.
And, you know, the staph infection was physically, like, really bad.
And he thinks he also is riding on the confidence of having beaten him, having beaten the living fuck out of Lyoto Machida.
His top game is some of the nastiest shit I've ever seen in my life.
unidentified
Strong!
joe rogan
So good.
brendan schaub
Big dude.
joe rogan
So what happens, he's a big dude, but he's also really talented, really smart, works hard, and he trains with two fucking gorillas.
Cain Velasquez and Daniel Cormier.
So he's going to war with gorillas.
And then Habib.
And Habib, I think, you know, training with a guy that's as high-level as Habib, you mirror some of his movements, you understand what he's doing, and then Habib's dad down there helping guys out there.
bryan callen
Was his dad a coach?
joe rogan
Oh, his dad coached Habib.
You know, I mean, his dad's always around Habib.
And his dad coached a few other guys that have fought in the UFC as well.
brendan schaub
But you're also getting from Habib and, you know, DC and Kane, you're also picking up their training tendencies and the blueprint of these elite of the elite.
And the three of them and the four of them are coming together.
joe rogan
And Bob Cook, too, man.
Bob Cook's a wizard.
Javier...
Mendez is a wizard.
You got great talent as far as coaching.
brendan schaub
They all have fights coming up.
unidentified
They're all together.
bryan callen
He's also about as big as you can get for an 85-er.
He walked around at 216. That's a big guy.
That's a lot of weight to lose.
brendan schaub
He's slim right now.
He's in shape right now.
I just saw him this weekend.
He's slim.
joe rogan
Well, he's fighting in a couple of weeks.
bryan callen
He was fighting two weeks before his fight.
brendan schaub
He was 215 pounds.
joe rogan
It's out here in LA, June 4th.
brendan schaub
That's right.
joe rogan
It's June 4th, right?
June 3rd and 4th?
Yeah.
That weekend?
Yeah.
That's a big, big fight in the middleweight division.
It's not getting enough attention, man.
It's interesting who becomes huge and famous and who does not become huge and famous.
It's really interesting.
brendan schaub
But I haven't seen much publicity on this fight either.
joe rogan
I haven't?
brendan schaub
Zero.
Zero.
joe rogan
No, I mean, I'm sure they're going to ramp it up when it comes close to pay-per-view time.
But as far as the history of the middleweight division, I mean, Anderson was the GOAT, right?
He's the greatest of all time.
Anderson loses to this kid named Weidman by knockout.
Weidman should become a star.
brendan schaub
Doesn't work like that.
joe rogan
I mean, in my eyes, he's a star.
I don't understand.
That sounds so gay.
unidentified
In my eyes, he's a star.
joe rogan
I mean, I don't understand.
As a fan of MMA, I immediately became a gigantic Chris Weidman fan.
I was already a Chris Weidman fan.
Here's the scary shit on that fucking card.
Hector Lombard versus Dan Henderson.
brendan schaub
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
Do not blink.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
Don't blink.
And don't count that old man out.
brendan schaub
You can never count Danny Henderson out.
joe rogan
You can't count that guy out.
brendan schaub
If he comes to the octagon with a scarf on, I'm counting him out.
See ya.
See ya.
bryan callen
Clay Guida's fighting again.
joe rogan
Cole Miller fighting BJ Penn.
Whoa.
And here's one everyone's sleeping on.
Max Holloway.
Get on that.
Fighting Ricardo Lamas.
Click on that.
Everybody's sleeping on that.
brendan schaub
They are sleeping on that.
Bro, Brian Ortega versus Clay Guida is a fun one, too.
Because Guida's going to try to take him down.
joe rogan
That's good luck with all that.
Ortega's transition, his guard is, I think, the best in that division at 145. I think it's the best in the UFC. Nobody fucking throws up triangles the way Brian Ortega does.
That guy is so scary off his back.
brendan schaub
You gotta train with that guy, Joe.
joe rogan
I'm sure.
brendan schaub
It's like, what the...
Just...
Oh, and all he does is let people...
The best in the world star in his guard.
He just trains from there all the time.
joe rogan
I can only imagine.
brendan schaub
And it's so fast.
Everything's so fast and explosive.
He's athletic.
joe rogan
I completely believe it.
He got popped.
brendan schaub
He did.
joe rogan
He got popped for something.
brendan schaub
All those Black House boys did for a while there.
joe rogan
Yeah, he got popped for something.
He's back now, baby!
But let me tell you something.
His last performance...
Click on him real quick.
Let me see what his last fight was.
I forget what his...
brendan schaub
Triangle City.
joe rogan
Yeah, well that's his TC. Yeah, but he won by Triangle's last fight.
Yeah, he did.
But that's his nickname, Triangle City.
brendan schaub
Diego Brando.
That's when Brando got cut.
Yeah.
I bet you're thinking of the Tarveris fight where he's back and forth.
Remember that?
That was a fucking fight.
joe rogan
He KO'd him in the third round.
brendan schaub
Fight of the night.
joe rogan
And then it was, yeah, it was the Diego Brandao fight.
That's what it is.
brendan schaub
And Brandao said, you know what, man?
I'm going to go to a strip club with a gun and we'll see how this works out.
And then the UFC said, hey, man, you're not Jon Jones.
We're going to have to let you go.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Plus, you can't go to a strip club with a gun.
brendan schaub
That's a bad idea.
bryan callen
Yeah, that's a bad idea.
That's impulse control.
joe rogan
Now I'm remembering the fight.
It was super, super impressive jujitsu.
brendan schaub
That Clay Guido Ortega one, that's fun.
When they told me he got that matchup, I said, this is the perfect fight for you.
Because the big name, it's a great style matchup for you, and everyone loves Clay, and it'll put you more on the map.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Clay, where's he at now?
Is he still training at Jackson's?
brendan schaub
Or Jackson's Muscle Farm.
He's in his RV and shit, driving around nonstop.
joe rogan
It's been a while since he's had a good win.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
You've got to wonder how much longer he's going to be doing this.
brendan schaub
I agree, man.
joe rogan
So this could be a make-or-break fight for him.
But if he wins, who knows?
unidentified
He gets a resurgence.
brendan schaub
Dude, Cruz favor three...
I'm just not excited for it.
I don't know why.
Are you out of your mind?
Isn't that weird?
Can you get me excited for it maybe?
joe rogan
I love this fight.
I love this fight because first of all, I think Uriah Faber is as close as you can get to being a world champion.
He's on the edge like everybody he fights.
Like, if he loses to, like, a world champion, it's like a whisper-thin decision.
It's close.
Or the one fight that he had with Hennenborough where he got cracked.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
And that was a weird stoppage, man.
It's like, he definitely got cracked.
And if Hennenborough cracks you, you've got fucking problems.
But I thought the stoppage was a little weird.
But...
Anybody can get cracked like that.
Anybody can lose like that.
That's just a part of this game.
But I think, like, if you look at talent level and skill level, I go back to, like, the Michael McDonald fight when he fucking just blitzkrieged him and smashed him and choked him.
brendan schaub
We haven't really heard from Michael McDonald since then.
joe rogan
Just came back recently.
Came back recently and won.
Looked fantastic.
brendan schaub
He did look good.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
But that fight was kind of like, you know what?
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I'm gonna take a little break.
joe rogan
But when Uriah beat him, it really cemented in my head.
I was like, look, you gotta never sleep on this kid, dude.
unidentified
He's a vet.
brendan schaub
You can't, man.
He's one of the biggest straws, too.
joe rogan
He's super competitive.
unidentified
You know what I want?
joe rogan
And I think he's better.
I think he keeps getting better.
I don't think he's a guy that's in a static state.
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
I don't think he's like a veteran that's kind of like, you know, just putting in the work and phoning it in.
I don't think so.
brendan schaub
Just gets in shape, brings his normal tools.
joe rogan
I don't think so.
bryan callen
You mean he's always changing all his...
joe rogan
Yes, I think he just keeps getting better.
unidentified
You know what I want, Joe?
joe rogan
I think he comes into this fight guns blazing.
brendan schaub
You know what I want?
unidentified
What?
brendan schaub
I want the fucking winner of this fights Mighty Mouse.
Mighty Mouse, beg for it, man.
Beg for it.
joe rogan
For the love of God.
Can you imagine if Uriah Faber beats Cruz, and that's a big F, and then fights Mighty Mouse?
Good lord.
brendan schaub
Mighty Mouse, do you hate money?
And fame.
Let's do it, dawg.
joe rogan
And Uriah Faber would, for the first time in his career, just dwarf somebody.
brendan schaub
He'd be the bigger guy.
He'd be like Cyborg on these bitches.
bryan callen
How much shorter is Mighty Mouse than Uriah?
brendan schaub
Quite a bit.
Quite a bit.
He's a small guy, but skill-wise, he makes up for it tremendously.
joe rogan
He's impossible to hit.
brendan schaub
Impossible.
Remember, Dominic Cruz and Mighty Mouse have fought before.
joe rogan
That was at 135, and Dominic won a decision.
But Dominic has got his own style.
If you look at his movement and his patterns, good luck finding anybody to replicate that.
His footwork and his movement and his patterns are all designed to constantly keep you guessing.
You're constantly being overrun with information.
If a guy stands in front of you, the less data that's coming your way, the more that you have...
You can concentrate on what's at hand and focus on what you're trying to do.
brendan schaub
Smartest guy in the sport, I think.
joe rogan
And Dominic never gives you that.
He doesn't give you that.
There's never a time where he's standing in front of you just Muay Thai-ing you.
bryan callen
Yeah, you and Chael were talking to him and you were just blown away by him.
brendan schaub
And we were training with him.
And he was training me and Chael like we're two white belts.
Like, Jesus Christ, man.
joe rogan
He's a wizard.
brendan schaub
He's a wizard.
Dude, you're sleeping on Poirier.
Poirier in green.
joe rogan
No, I'm not.
I'm not sleeping on that at all.
unidentified
That's a fucking fight, son.
bryan callen
Green's hard to hang.
joe rogan
Bobby Green hasn't been in a big fight in a while, too.
I'm psyched to see him back.
brendan schaub
Bobby Green's one of them.
joe rogan
He always does a lot of shit talking.
But Bobby Green, when he's at his best, is one of the best at 155. So the diamond, too, man, at 55, now that he's there.
brendan schaub
Because he fell off just a tad, and then he's at 55 now.
joe rogan
Well, Conor knocked him out.
He got knocked out in the first round by Connor, and he struggled too hard to make that fucking weight.
brendan schaub
Yeah, big dude.
joe rogan
Those were during the IV days, too, by the way.
brendan schaub
That's right.
bryan callen
It's really interesting to see the difference in a lot of these guys' bodies, now that there's so much testing.
It really is.
joe rogan
Some of them.
Yeah, some of them, for sure.
bryan callen
It's just that, like, what I would always think is if you wrestled and you did jiu-jitsu and you boxed and you kicked, you'd come out looking very, very muscular.
When you look at guys back, you know, five years ago and you look at guys now, there is a difference.
Like, if anything, they get kind of skinnier.
joe rogan
They look smoother.
Here's a big one.
EPO. If you can't use EPO, you've got to lose body mass.
You just have to.
bryan callen
Is that what it is?
joe rogan
Yeah, for sure.
It's a big part of...
Endurance.
brendan schaub
Oxygen to the muscles.
joe rogan
That's what that melodium, whatever that stuff was, that boxer got caught from.
It mirrors that effect.
brendan schaub
Those Russians are balls deep in it, I guess.
joe rogan
How about the Sochi?
bryan callen
Oh, too.
joe rogan
That's what the guy who fought...
brendan schaub
Bagatinov.
joe rogan
Yeah, Bagatinov.
brendan schaub
He's 125 pounds.
bryan callen
Did you read about the Sochi Olympics?
joe rogan
What?
bryan callen
And how...
They've uncovered that they don't know how they got into those bottles that they make in Switzerland.
They're like tamper for proof.
But however they did it, they're drawing this whole thing where every like they think a hundred athletes in the Olympics were cheating on the Russian on the Russian side.
And the information came from the Russian guy who ran the lab and the other two guys that he worked with mysteriously died.
So this guy exiled himself to Los Angeles.
He ran the entire lab and now he's coming clean saying, well, our intelligence operatives were were.
We're basically involved in getting clean samples to WADA, etc.
brendan schaub
Why is he snitching?
bryan callen
And it's basically out of a...
unidentified
Why is he doing this?
bryan callen
Because his two colleagues were killed because they knew things.
So he went, oh, I'm next.
brendan schaub
So just move to LA and shut your mouth.
bryan callen
That's what he did.
joe rogan
No, you can't shut your mouth.
brendan schaub
Because Russians will get you.
joe rogan
You can't shut your mouth.
If he shuts his mouth, they'll still get him.
bryan callen
Yeah, and he had to prove that his life was in danger.
joe rogan
Yeah, you don't think they'd get you if you shut your mouth and you moved to LA? Oh, you're at home base.
You touched base.
brendan schaub
They killed that guy in DC. This isn't the movies, is it?
bryan callen
Russian intelligence can find you.
joe rogan
Who'd they kill in DC? This guy.
bryan callen
He was found dead with blunt force trauma to the head.
I wonder how that happened.
joe rogan
Yeah, but here's the thing.
The autopsy, they didn't do an autopsy for a long time.
And initially, the cause of death was ruled as a heart attack.
And then they found blunt force trauma on his head.
brendan schaub
How do you miss that?
joe rogan
Yeah, fine.
Because it's a spooky story.
Ex-aide to Putin died of blunt force trauma at DC Hotel, medical examiner says.
But look when they found him, and look when they actually made the autopsy claim.
I think it was quite a bit of time.
bryan callen
Look at him.
joe rogan
Died from blunt force trauma.
He got kettlebelled in the fucking head.
That's what they did.
brendan schaub
Some Russian fucking kettlebells.
joe rogan
They tied him up and they just did fucking swings right at his head.
Dude, can you imagine that?
Someone killed you with a kettlebell?
brendan schaub
Just being tied up by some Russian thugs and being fucked up.
bryan callen
Look at that.
joe rogan
It said, Family members told Russian news media in November that they thought Leslin had suffered a heart attack.
That's when they put that down in November.
So when was this article where they decided that, this is really recently, it's March.
jamie vernon
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, see, so there's all those months that went by before it was announced that he was killed.
unidentified
God.
joe rogan
In a hotel beat to death.
bryan callen
And now they've been caught just blatantly cheating.
In the Olympics.
joe rogan
Yeah, but this is a guy that says this.
I don't know that there's been...
I've read the article.
I don't know that there's been definitive proof that everything he's saying is true, that he hasn't exaggerated something.
bryan callen
Well, the New York Times ran two articles on their front page, and if the New York Times is going to do that, they've checked their sources.
joe rogan
Yeah, but it's not a matter of checking sources.
Like, what is the physical evidence that you have?
The physical proof, yeah.
There very well could be a story there that the New York Times must run, and I'm sure that they check their sources.
But is there anything that they can hold up and say, this needs to be examined because this is proof positive that...
brendan schaub
No, it'd be everywhere if they did that.
joe rogan
It'd be on CNN. Yeah, so I don't think it's there yet.
bryan callen
But...
joe rogan
Look, it's 100% going on.
brendan schaub
Is anyone surprised?
jamie vernon
No.
brendan schaub
Of course not.
joe rogan
Well, Nowitzki told me straight up that they're figuring out a way to move around these things.
unidentified
Sure.
joe rogan
And that while he's doing this, he's like, I always know.
And Nowitzki is Jeff Nowitzki, who's the guy who caught Lance Armstrong, who's the guy who works for the UFC now.
For people listening to this.
brendan schaub
AKA the Golden Snitch.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's the guy that catches guys doing everything.
And, you know, they're on top of the latest and the greatest.
bryan callen
For $32 million of the government's money.
joe rogan
And the latest, I know, he doesn't want to admit that.
bryan callen
Our money.
joe rogan
Our taxpayer money.
He wants to pretend it was way less than that.
He was giving me like a figure on the show.
I heard.
That's why Lance Armstrong came on the show.
Because what he's not counting is like salaries and flights and all this stuff.
What they're counting is like the amount of money they actually had to spend like on vouchers.
bryan callen
So that's the government.
So that's the federal government with unlimited resources spending 32 million dollars on a cyclist Still going after him, by the way.
joe rogan
Still going after him.
They're going after him now for $100 million still because they said he defrauded the government of how much they paid him because he raced for the post office.
brendan schaub
Who gives a shit?
bryan callen
But it's your tax dollars.
joe rogan
But here's the thing.
If you race for the post office, the post office is the government, so they charge you for three times what you took.
So if you took 33, they'd charge them for a million.
brendan schaub
How stupid is it?
bryan callen
It's called tyranny.
brendan schaub
For riding a bike.
joe rogan
Yeah, 33. They go after him for 100. Write a letter.
bryan callen
Write a letter to the government.
See what happens.
brendan schaub
Is Nowitzki the ultimate golden snitch?
bryan callen
No.
joe rogan
Why do you say golden snitch?
brendan schaub
Golden, because he's at another level.
joe rogan
But he's not a snitch.
He's an investigator.
He's not like a guy who's involved.
A snitch would be Victor Conte.
Victor Conte's a snitch.
brendan schaub
He got caught rattled on him.
joe rogan
But he didn't even rat on people when he got caught.
You can't even call him a snitch.
You call him a post-operative.
brendan schaub
Victor Conte?
joe rogan
He used to do it.
brendan schaub
We call them rats where I come from.
joe rogan
See, here's the thing.
He used to be involved in it.
He's not involved in it anymore.
Now he's going after people who are involved in it.
So what is that?
That's like an informer.
bryan callen
Yeah, but can I ask you a question?
Did they ever actually...
brendan schaub
That's not a snitch.
joe rogan
Jamie says yes.
brendan schaub
It'd kind of be a snitch because he's revealing all this backstory.
joe rogan
Right, but he could be reformed and since he primarily concentrates on combat sports athletes, you could see him as a...
He's helping people.
Like he's keeping people from cheating and hurting people.
Content.
Could you see it that way?
bryan callen
Sure.
brendan schaub
But he benefited, the reason why he has a name, the reason why he got so big is because he was helping so many big name athletes, and then now he's against it.
joe rogan
But should that, should the fact that he was helping all those big name athletes, should that disclude him from being able to realize the error of his ways and make an attempt to try to clean up the sport?
Is that possible?
brendan schaub
It's possible.
joe rogan
It's possible, right?
brendan schaub
It's possible.
joe rogan
That's how I'd hope to look at it.
bryan callen
Did they ever find physical evidence, physical evidence, a test that showed that Lance Armstrong actually cheated?
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
No, that's never common.
bryan callen
They never did.
So 500 tests or whatever it was.
joe rogan
Whatever it was.
bryan callen
Passed all of them.
He passed all of them.
$32 million later, but finally he admits that he used performance-enhancing drugs.
unidentified
Yep.
brendan schaub
To Oprah.
bryan callen
Yeah.
But...
It's very interesting to me.
What do you think the benefit of that was?
And I do think that there's a benefit to going after people who are cheating, who are trying to change the playing field.
I know everybody does.
brendan schaub
Not riding a bike.
bryan callen
I know everybody does.
But it's a difficult thing because...
joe rogan
Well, first of all, it's not an American game.
You're in another country.
So you're giving someone some sort of, you're investigating them being involved in something that's not even taking place on American soil.
So that's the dubious right there.
unidentified
Right.
joe rogan
Second of all, you are saying as the post office, you're suing this guy for all the money that he made while he was cheating and using drugs.
If you don't know that cyclists are cheating, what the fuck are you doing in the cyclist business?
Because I know, I'm a comedian living in LA, and I know they're all cheating.
bryan callen
Exactly.
brendan schaub
But the other thing is, how much did he do for the U.S. Postal Office?
And also, we didn't give a fuck about cycling until Lance Armstrong started kicking ass.
And how much money did he raise for all this cancer awareness?
How many people were wearing those yellow wristbands?
joe rogan
But that doesn't...
Here's the issue.
This is where he fucked up.
He sued a bunch of people that were telling the truth.
And he used his money.
That's where he fucked up.
brendan schaub
That's where he's a bad guy in that part.
But also in his sport, you have to go down to 15th place.
They were all doing it.
It's a level playing field.
joe rogan
Right.
So it was about everybody was ratting on everybody.
They got caught.
They were giving people up.
There was a lot of that going on.
And Lance Armstrong started suing people when they were giving up him.
That is where people have an issue with it.
bryan callen
Me too.
joe rogan
And with his mind, he's protecting himself.
brendan schaub
Yeah, exactly.
And I can see both sides, but I'm with Lance Armstrong.
Like, dude, you're snitching on me.
I gotta protect myself too.
joe rogan
Exactly.
brendan schaub
And you guys started first snitching on me.
unidentified
Right.
joe rogan
And the snitching, if we're boys, the snitching is worse than the lawsuit.
brendan schaub
By far.
joe rogan
By far.
brendan schaub
Especially if we're a team.
joe rogan
Yes.
brendan schaub
We represent America.
joe rogan
But some of those guys weren't his boys anymore.
They didn't like him anymore.
brendan schaub
So why snitch, though?
bryan callen
Very few people liked Lance.
joe rogan
I'm with you.
brendan schaub
Did you get anything out of it?
joe rogan
I'm with you.
brendan schaub
I didn't want to say the word.
bryan callen
But a lot of people didn't like Lance Armstrong.
They had to dislike him.
joe rogan
The same reason why they don't like fucking Michael Jordan.
Let me tell you something.
Lance Armstrong was on the podcast.
He wanted to know what number the podcast had gotten up to.
What's it up to?
Is it up to number one yet?
Because it was like number two in the country.
Tell me when it hits number one.
I want to hit number one in the country.
I want to let him know.
bryan callen
That's the only way he can relate.
joe rogan
How many downloads are we getting?
He wants to know.
Is he getting more than other people's downloads?
He goes, I'm real crazy.
He's opening about it.
He laughs about it.
He's like, I'm fucking competitive.
You know me.
I'm competitive.
He wanted to have the number one podcast of all time.
bryan callen
I don't think that way.
Fuck, I wish I did.
joe rogan
That's why you're not Lance Armstrong, bitch.
brendan schaub
That's why he just wrestled in high school.
bryan callen
Hey, I did jiu-jitsu with Henzo Gracie and I got my blue belt.
joe rogan
You got your what?
unidentified
My blue belt.
joe rogan
I thought you said you had your purple belt.
bryan callen
No, I never said that.
joe rogan
Wait a minute.
bryan callen
Never once.
brendan schaub
Wait a minute.
bryan callen
We have to go back to the archives.
brendan schaub
I didn't want to touch on it.
bryan callen
I've never said that ever in my life.
joe rogan
Did he say he had his purple belt?
bryan callen
No, I've never said that.
brendan schaub
I'm so confused.
I don't know.
bryan callen
What do you mean you don't know?
I don't lie.
joe rogan
Wait a minute.
bryan callen
I don't lie.
There's lies and then there are lies.
Anybody who says they're a purple belt is a liar.
I'm a liar, but I'm not a liar.
You know what I mean?
joe rogan
You definitely didn't say you're a purple belt?
bryan callen
No!
I never said I was a purple belt.
joe rogan
Accidentally once, a little bit drunk.
bryan callen
I never even said I tapped a purple belt.
brendan schaub
A little drunk.
bryan callen
Probably did once.
brendan schaub
All I'm saying, B, is the reason why he's Lance Armstrong is because he's competitive at everything.
Anyone who's an ultra winner, you could be...
bryan callen
I just said I wish I was like that.
I'm not.
brendan schaub
I just never have been.
joe rogan
Why would you wish you were like that?
Because what you are is awesome.
bryan callen
Because I want to be a cyclist.
joe rogan
No, dude.
What you want to be is...
What you are is a guy who always wants to be something other than you are.
unidentified
Exactly.
joe rogan
And that's part of the fun of being around Brian Callen.
bryan callen
I spent a lot of time.
unidentified
God, I wish I was that guy.
joe rogan
And then you go into this romanticized version of what that guy is.
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
Meanwhile, that guy lives living in Austin and people throwing eggs at his house.
unidentified
Yeah, that guy can't post social media or nothing without getting hate.
joe rogan
It's sort of relaxing a bit now, but I mean, dude, when the storm comes your way, like when you get in trouble for something along those lines, the storm of being a national disgrace and someone who everyone's angry at, and there's so much going on with the lawsuits and the And he's still involved in the lawsuit with the post office.
The storm of pressure and stress is probably overwhelming and never-ending.
brendan schaub
But it also gives everyone now a voice on social media who's never done shit in their lives to fucking contribute and try and shit on Lance Robson, one of the greatest athletes of all time.
Oh, fuck yeah.
I'm gonna fuck with this guy now.
Oh, you post a picture of your kids at Christmas?
Oh, fuck these kids.
Where's their steroids at?
Alright, man.
Hope you feel better about yourself.
He's still killing it.
He's still living in a mansion.
joe rogan
Yeah, I mean, it's just part of the program.
It's what comes with the program.
And I don't think he's a bad guy.
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
It was amazing talking to him.
bryan callen
Great podcast.
I listened to it.
joe rogan
He's my buddy now.
We text each other.
It's bizarre as fuck.
bryan callen
Awesome.
joe rogan
I get a text every now and then from Lance Armstrong.
unidentified
He's the man.
joe rogan
Like when Dan Bilzerian was doing that bet.
You know, he's doing a bet where he rode a bike to Las Vegas.
brendan schaub
I didn't see it.
joe rogan
Yeah, well, I don't know if he's talked about it publicly.
I don't know if he's talked about the fact that he did it.
Anyway, Lance Armstrong texted me.
He's like, you know Dan Bilzerian?
Hook us up.
I want to help him.
So fucking Lance Armstrong helps Dan Bilzerian train for this thing where he's got to ride to Vegas in 30 hours.
He's like, he could totally do it.
It's totally doable.
bryan callen
How did Bilzerian make his money?
joe rogan
That's a good question.
I don't know.
I think his parents had money.
brendan schaub
That's what they think.
And this is going what I know from the internet, is they're saying...
unidentified
I love how you do that with air quotes.
brendan schaub
Also known as the underworld.
He was playing that he has all this money and all this stuff from being one of these top poker players in the world, but it came out that he comes from a lot of money.
So he puts on this lifestyle, like this baller.
joe rogan
Was drafting against the rules?
It wasn't a lot of draft.
jamie vernon
That's why he did most of the trip, I think, is behind a van like that.
joe rogan
Oh, where someone drove the van?
bryan callen
Well, his beard is a major air drag.
jamie vernon
Yeah.
joe rogan
Well, that's a big deal.
unidentified
I know.
jamie vernon
I mean, I don't know if it wasn't within the rules.
Maybe he should have set the rules before they made that bet.
joe rogan
Especially if the wind is headed his face.
brendan schaub
Hashtag y'all got hustled.
joe rogan
If the wind is headed towards his face.
But you know what?
If they didn't put that in the rules, they fucked up.
Because Bilzerian's a smart bitch.
And look what he's got, too.
The van's back doors are open.
So they could have a fan blowing on him with, like, misters and shit.
He's a pimp.
How do you not love that guy?
Every picture he takes, he's got a hundred whores with him.
And I say whores, I say that with all love.
bryan callen
All love and due respect.
brendan schaub
All those great humans.
bryan callen
Private jets.
joe rogan
I should say he has a hundred beautiful women with him, because that's what he does.
But that's part of his image.
That's all personas.
They're like Charlie's Angels.
bryan callen
That's a lot of work.
I don't know.
Actually, it is worth dilating on a little bit.
I don't know.
It's just not that inspiring to me.
Are you smacking your lips like that?
What are you doing?
joe rogan
What's going on with your legs?
brendan schaub
I can tell you right now, what Brian's trying to do is say that he's not a fan of this guy.
He's trying to be very PC of it.
unidentified
I sure am.
brendan schaub
Because you never fucking draw the line with anything.
bryan callen
I just don't.
I just don't like this culture that is essentially celebrating itself.
I just don't...
That's not a guy to hang out with when you're that happy with yourself and you think, hey, you know, I was going to tell...
joe rogan
I met him.
He's a nice guy.
bryan callen
My business manager saying spending $125,000 on a private jet was a bad idea.
I disagree with this naked girl.
All right.
I'm sure I'd love hanging out with him, but it's just not that inspiring to me.
unidentified
Oh, no.
joe rogan
But you have to realize that people doing this are akin in a lot of ways to gangster rappers.
What they're doing is putting out an image.
That image becomes popular.
That popular image equates to millions and millions of followers on Instagram because he's manipulated the media.
bryan callen
Ugh, to all of it, though.
joe rogan
But he can use that to promote himself in all sorts of different ways, and then he becomes a business.
bryan callen
Promote himself.
joe rogan
Exactly.
But that's what you do when you're promoting shows.
What I'm saying is, like, a person promotes himself on Instagram, where it's a girl who's got yoga pants and a nice big butt, and she makes money all of a sudden doing squats.
brendan schaub
Yeah, not mad at her.
joe rogan
I mean, there's a lot of those people.
bryan callen
But there's a difference.
joe rogan
Yeah, look at that.
brendan schaub
17 million followers.
joe rogan
But Brian, what's the difference between a girl sticking her butt out or him?
He's got 17 million Instagram followers.
brendan schaub
There's no difference.
You're just saying it's not inspiring.
bryan callen
Yeah, I'm saying that at least, like, don't you think?
It's a little bit maybe like the difference between you see a body that's built for something.
Like, if you look at Joe Schilling's body, it's built for a purpose.
And then you see somebody who's a bodybuilder.
All due respect, a bodybuilder is a hard thing to do.
joe rogan
Click on a girl's butt.
brendan schaub
Yeah, please.
bryan callen
It's just not that cool.
I don't know.
joe rogan
This has 343,000 lights, Brian.
brendan schaub
Brian, you're saying he doesn't have skills.
You're saying he doesn't possess a skill?
bryan callen
His skill is self-promotion, but it ends there.
So it's a self-contained thing, yeah.
joe rogan
But you say that, but how do you know?
Because he's also a professional poker player.
He makes millions of dollars gambling.
bryan callen
So they say.
So they say.
brendan schaub
That's debatable.
joe rogan
Is it debatable?
brendan schaub
Yes.
joe rogan
Well, didn't he win this fucking debate?
He won this million-dollar bet to go to Vegas.
bryan callen
I know, but...
joe rogan
I mean, he did it.
I mean, he worked hard.
He worked hard for five weeks to do that.
It's not like an empty guy with no character.
It might be just a wild...
bryan callen
I don't know him.
I don't know him.
joe rogan
That's what I'm saying.
unidentified
He might be a business beast.
joe rogan
He might be a wild, fun-seeking motherfucker that's actually pulling it off.
brendan schaub
He's a marketing genius.
joe rogan
If you were a guy who didn't have any set of skills and all of a sudden by hook or by crook or by luck or by fuck, you find yourself with $100 million.
unidentified
Oh, my God.
brendan schaub
I'm running with it.
joe rogan
Wouldn't you want to live like this?
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
If you don't have any kids, you got a mansion on top of the hill, and you don't have any skills?
bryan callen
No, I wouldn't.
I'd try to make a difference.
joe rogan
Brian, you hang out with people that are way more shallow than him, so shut the fuck up.
unidentified
No, I don't.
bryan callen
No, I don't.
I do not, sir.
You are wrong.
joe rogan
Hold on.
Stop for a second and just consider this.
I don't want to attack you.
Did we not talk about someone before this show that you used to hang out with all the time that is equally as fucked up as that guy?
bryan callen
I'm trying to think of who.
unidentified
Whatever.
bryan callen
Do you mean right before this show?
joe rogan
Yeah.
That's just too complicated.
bryan callen
Listen, I don't know the guy.
joe rogan
I've met him.
He seems nice.
bryan callen
I know.
I know.
I'm just saying.
brendan schaub
Brian likes that guy because he has skills.
joe rogan
I don't think he has to be.
bryan callen
If you give me $100 million, listen, you give me $100 million, you know what I'm going to do?
The responsibility.
brendan schaub
Don't say charity.
bryan callen
I'm going to try to make a difference in the world.
joe rogan
And you're trying to do that now?
bryan callen
I am.
At least with the skills that I have.
unidentified
What are you doing?
bryan callen
Well, I'm trying to be as original as I can be.
brendan schaub
But you're like an open up charity bee.
joe rogan
Brian, you're doing that because you enjoy it, because you're entertaining people.
Okay, you're not going out seeking to make a difference in the world.
You're going out having a good time, doing a good thing, doing Doing a good act.
bryan callen
That's exactly right.
But I also do try to make a difference in the world in my own way, charity-wise and things like that.
I do.
I spend money on charity.
I spend money trying to make the world better.
If you give me $100 million, I'm going to do that.
joe rogan
But let's be honest.
You're not a guy who's really promoting charities a lot and talking about it a lot and giving money to GoFundMe's.
bryan callen
No, but at least what I'm trying to do is go, let's just take stand-up.
brendan schaub
You're talking to two friends here.
bryan callen
Let's just take stand-up.
Let's take stand-up.
So stand-up for me, at least what I'm trying to do in my own mind is surprise myself and come up with, you know, see what I'm made of.
joe rogan
Right, you're entertaining people doing your thing, right?
brendan schaub
It's not your way of giving back.
joe rogan
This is not a criticism of your stand-up.
I think you're hilarious.
bryan callen
You know I love you.
I think you're awesome.
What I'm saying is that I think there's a difference between the skill of stand-up, for example, and coming up with a body of work and taking all that money and shooting guns and being on a private jet and having chicks around, right?
joe rogan
See, here's the problem.
brendan schaub
How do we know he's not giving to charity, though?
joe rogan
Listen, man, you don't know that.
And here's the other thing.
He might be.
I don't know.
He might not be.
Who knows?
But what I'm seeing is a show.
It's a very short snippet show.
What you just saw there, when he's walking by that girl's butt and he's got a machine gun.
I was in.
Not only are you in, but here's the thing.
Obviously, this is staged.
This is a fucking show.
There is a camera behind him.
brendan schaub
Especially the way it was shot.
joe rogan
Yeah.
There's a camera behind him.
He's moving in slow-mo.
He's got a bandolier on, dude.
Do you not see how ridiculous this is?
bryan callen
Yeah, I do stand-up like that.
joe rogan
Brian, listen, let's just open-minded.
You're watching the video, he's in a dune buggy with all these hot chicks.
Do you think this is really happening?
That they just get clandestine, you know, just unnoticed video of him driving around this dune buggy with all these hot chicks?
No, he hired someone!
Look at this.
He's walking in slow motion with his bandolier.
The girls are laughing.
brendan schaub
Those hoes are all rented for the day.
joe rogan
This is a goddamn show.
brendan schaub
This is a show.
I'm with you.
All I'm saying is even if you got $100 million, you're not becoming Mother Teresa.
No one here is.
bryan callen
No, I'm not, but I'm just saying that...
brendan schaub
Don't pretend that.
That's the only issue I have.
bryan callen
I'm not.
I'm just not.
All I said was I don't find it that inspiring.
joe rogan
No one says it is.
We're not inspired.
We're not saying, Jesus Christ, Dan Bilzerian makes me want to go give money to charity.
No!
I'm just saying, why even be upset?
I'm not upset.
bryan callen
I'm not upset.
I'm saying that to me...
joe rogan
What if was all that sucking your teeth and crossing your legs?
I like being dramatic.
bryan callen
First of all, I like being dramatic.
But first of all, I'm being inspired by him.
I was being theatrical.
joe rogan
I know.
That's what we're calling you out on.
bryan callen
But hold on.
Hold on.
You have to...
There is criteria for how to live your life.
There's criteria for how to live your life.
And I think if you spend $125,000 on whatever, on looking great and celebrating yourself, I just think it kind of...
It's just not really...
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
What if the whole marketing plan, though?
joe rogan
But it's a brilliant marketing plan.
I get that it might not be your thing.
brendan schaub
Bless this guy.
joe rogan
Dude, it doesn't have to be your thing.
brendan schaub
That's exactly what I do with my money.
joe rogan
My point is, to me, it's not offensive at all.
It's no more offensive than the Kardashians.
The Kardashians don't offend me.
I mean, I can make fun of it all day long, but I'm not offended by what they're doing.
I don't think anything's wrong with it.
bryan callen
I do.
It's self-celebration, and I find that very...
joe rogan
It's not my favorite thing, but it doesn't bother me.
I think this guy is funny.
I think this Instagram, what I'm taking out of this, to me, is amusement and humor.
This is what I'm getting.
brendan schaub
I see it as a persona, like it's a gimmick.
joe rogan
Look at that picture on the couch.
To me, this is an exaggeration of all the stereotypes of some super rich Hey, look at me.
brendan schaub
What if this is his life, though?
unidentified
It's just random pictures.
brendan schaub
How sick would that be?
joe rogan
Listen, it is.
I mean, just think about it.
It is his life.
He's taking these photos with these girls, and I'm sure some of them have sex with him.
bryan callen
Yeah, I hope so.
brendan schaub
100%!
joe rogan
Otherwise, he's doing it wrong.
He legitimately has unbelievable amounts of money.
He's got a mansion in the Hollywood Hills.
brendan schaub
How weird is that?
These girls are around just because you have money and you know it.
joe rogan
Who cares?
I wouldn't care.
Here's the thing.
bryan callen
He's a good-looking guy.
joe rogan
He's not a bad-looking guy.
brendan schaub
No, he's not bad-looking.
bryan callen
He's a manly dude.
brendan schaub
He's not going to be in front of GQ. Yeah, he's not bad.
joe rogan
But I mean, here's the thing.
Remember we were talking about the Sultan of Brunei?
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
Who hires these girls and he pays them like thousands of dollars a day to hang out at his house and he fucks them occasionally.
He decides who he wants to fuck.
He has like a whole disco built into one of his palaces.
brendan schaub
He's a prince.
joe rogan
And he comes down.
He sashays through the fucking room naked.
Does whatever the fuck he wants.
unidentified
This guy's awesome.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He's like Aladdin.
joe rogan
And he just picks the girls who wants to bang and brings them up to his room.
But all of them are getting ungodly amounts of money and jewelry and diamonds and all this shit.
So we look at that guy and we don't have a problem with it.
bryan callen
Well, I never said I didn't have a problem with it.
joe rogan
Do you have a problem with it?
bryan callen
I don't have a problem with that.
unidentified
Gold Royals Royce, son!
joe rogan
What's up, son?
brendan schaub
Bitches and Gold Royals Royces?
joe rogan
He has like a hundred Ferraris.
bryan callen
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
joe rogan
Look at him.
Bam, bitch!
brendan schaub
Killing the game.
bryan callen
Yeah, but killing what game?
joe rogan
Killing gold.
Killing the golden genie game.
brendan schaub
He's killing the life game.
He's killing the real Aladdin.
bryan callen
Golotny and excess and vanity.
joe rogan
Oh, Brian.
bryan callen
It is, right?
joe rogan
But yeah, of course.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
But you're doing duh.
Like, duh.
Duh, it's gluttony, but it's hilarious.
brendan schaub
He might be doing some shit for his people, though, too, B. Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
How about not?
brendan schaub
He might.
He might.
unidentified
Maybe.
joe rogan
He might be.
unidentified
We don't know.
bryan callen
Take it easy.
brendan schaub
We don't know.
That's the thing.
joe rogan
That's his fleet of cars.
That's one of them.
bryan callen
If that's his value system, it's okay.
joe rogan
Oh, Brian.
unidentified
Right?
bryan callen
Right?
brendan schaub
My problem with you is you're acting like your mother Teresa.
bryan callen
I'm not.
brendan schaub
You're doing all this charity shit.
bryan callen
I'm not.
What I'm coming down to the fact is that we do live in a culture that somehow celebrates that and I just find it kind of boring.
joe rogan
It is.
It is, but Kim Kardashian world.
Exactly.
But you don't have to celebrate it to enjoy it.
Like, look, it is what it is.
It's part of the folly of humanity.
bryan callen
Yes.
brendan schaub
That's our society.
joe rogan
I think it's amusing.
bryan callen
You're taking a sense of humor, and you should take a humorous approach to it.
And I bet you that guy Dan Bilzerian is probably actually a funny guy and a silly goose, I would imagine.
joe rogan
When I met him, he was very nice.
He also doesn't know him that well.
brendan schaub
I don't give a shit what he does.
unidentified
This concerns me.
Disconcerned.
brendan schaub
This is what's matter with the world.
bryan callen
He's an expression of kind of what this culture has to offer.
joe rogan
Whenever you make a point and I see you're wearing boots and these are like Italian handmade leather zip-up boots.
When I see that and you cross your legs in this really elegant way that I can't even do.
You can't do that.
I know you can't cross your legs like this.
bryan callen
Dude, I got a flexible hideous.
brendan schaub
It's that fat dick.
You got a fat one.
joe rogan
Yeah, I got a fat dick.
But I also have fat legs.
brendan schaub
It ain't happening.
bryan callen
It's the leg thing.
brendan schaub
I got skinny jeans on.
It ain't happening.
bryan callen
I tape my genitals down in my armpit.
joe rogan
By the way, I see you're wearing the fucking stretchy jeans.
You were wearing them when you were doing Fighter and the Kid.
unidentified
That's all I wear now.
joe rogan
Are you wearing them now?
bryan callen
These are my 5'4 jeans.
joe rogan
You gotta throw those out.
bryan callen
No, no, no.
I wear the barbell.
I wear the barbell jeans or my 5'4s.
5'4s, these are the stretchy jeans.
That's what I wheel kicked in.
joe rogan
Oh, they stretch too?
bryan callen
Yes, sir.
brendan schaub
Why do you guys need stretchy jeans?
joe rogan
Because I feel so good.
bryan callen
Because I got huge legs.
I got huge legs.
brendan schaub
Wear some fucking joggers.
joe rogan
No, no, no, no.
I'm telling you, man.
brendan schaub
Don't send me jeans, Joe.
unidentified
These jeans?
brendan schaub
Don't send me jeans.
joe rogan
These jeans are like wearing sweatpants.
They're like wearing sweatpants.
bryan callen
We both have blowout.
We have blowout asses and big thighs.
joe rogan
There's some people now that sell, they call them like the brand of stretchy.
They're calling them like Rogan jeans.
I know there's already a company called Rogan jeans.
bryan callen
Make them.
joe rogan
Right?
There's already a company called Rogan jeans that somebody made.
But this is like a type, like some people are selling stretchy ones.
I mean, I think stretchy is like the new thing.
Because I talk about them so often.
bryan callen
But yours is stretchy too.
I swear to God.
brendan schaub
Oh, so what are you talking about?
bryan callen
It's all I wear now.
joe rogan
But you have them, so what are you talking about?
Every company has them.
jamie vernon
They're stretchy jeans if you go to the store.
brendan schaub
These are skinny stretchy jeans.
bryan callen
They've got spandex in them and it's all I wear now.
Those barbell jeans are awesome.
joe rogan
Dude, regular canvas jeans.
Why don't you wear a potato sack around your dick?
It's stupid.
Sack is all fucking scratchy and itchy.
bryan callen
I won't tell you that's going to hug my fucking legs.
brendan schaub
Show off that room.
joe rogan
I used to have to wear Lucky Brand jeans.
Because Lucky Brand jeans is a thicker cut.
There's a few different companies that will make a thicker cut that will fit my troll-like legs.
bryan callen
Well, you've got a small waist but big thighs.
joe rogan
Yeah, and it's my upper thighs are the highest.
That's where it's way thicker.
It's all kicking stuff.
When you do it as a child, it developed in that way.
bryan callen
One of the highlights of my life, and I'm a skinny guy, the highlights of my life was when I was at John Varvedo's trying on impossibly expensive jeans and couldn't fit my calves or my upper thighs.
They were just too tight.
brendan schaub
You were so happy.
bryan callen
I looked at the guy in Malibu.
Your calves and your upper thighs?
I got huge calves.
I got the biggest calves.
joe rogan
Well, they're big for the rest of your body.
brendan schaub
You said the biggest in the world?
joe rogan
But if you were a bodybuilder, I'd be stuffing them filled with oil.
Will Sasso's calves are ridiculous.
They don't even look real.
unidentified
Bull hearts.
bryan callen
Bull hearts.
He's got bull hearts.
joe rogan
It's more like a moose heart.
brendan schaub
That would be a big one.
joe rogan
I got a moose heart in my fridge.
brendan schaub
Straight up.
joe rogan
And it looks just like his calf.
bryan callen
Yeah.
He's got a couple moose hearts stuffed into his legs.
He's a gorilla of a dude.
Hilarious.
joe rogan
He's one of those guys where you're like, boy, I'm glad he's jolly.
Because if he just started running through a room full of people.
unidentified
We're all fucked.
We're all fucked.
brendan schaub
You included me!
You just bowled me over!
bryan callen
I pushed him into a room with a bunch of people who recognized him, and I pushed him into this room and I went, I'm Will Sasso!
And everybody looked up and went, yay!
And he turned and I tried to hold the door and he pushed the door and sent me into the street.
He's 330. He makes me laugh hard.
He's the funniest guy.
Will Sasso, you should have him on this podcast.
To me, him and Zach Galifianakis are the funniest people in the world just off the couch.
joe rogan
Didn't he do your podcast recently and bum you out?
bryan callen
No, he was bummed because he didn't feel well.
brendan schaub
He was sick as fuck.
bryan callen
The first thing he said is, he goes, if you're a homeless person, I don't know why these guys don't grab a seagull, kick it into the ocean, break its wing, and fucking eat it right there.
They're like, alright, this is going to get weird.
brendan schaub
He came out, he was just sick.
He's like on a bunch of antibiotics and stuff.
bryan callen
Will is fucking hilarious.
Will is jaw-droppingly funny.
joe rogan
Where did we hang out with him last?
Was it in Vancouver?
After UFC? He's Canadian.
bryan callen
I feel like it was at the comedy store, wasn't it?
joe rogan
Or in No, we went to dinner with him at a restaurant in Canada somewhere.
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
Was it Toronto?
Maybe it was Toronto.
bryan callen
No, no.
joe rogan
Where did we do a gig together?
Was it Vancouver?
brendan schaub
No, Toronto.
joe rogan
Was it Toronto?
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
It was so much fun.
brendan schaub
We had me that real Steve over there.
joe rogan
This?
brendan schaub
No, the little bottle, brother.
bryan callen
Dude, I still am thinking about the show I did.
Joe let me do 50 minutes at the Chicago Theater in front of 3,500 people.
50. That was pretty cool, man.
That was pretty cool.
brendan schaub
That's pretty awesome.
joe rogan
We had a good time.
bryan callen
It's funny how a giant crowd like that, though, in some ways, is so different than an intimate crowd.
Yeah.
joe rogan
Timing's different.
bryan callen
Yeah.
The laughter kind of rolls and you've got to wait.
Whereas, you're not aware of your effect with a huge crowd like that in the same way as you're aware of your effect with 200 people.
joe rogan
Have you ever sat...
You know what's a really good thing to do is sit in the audience when someone's on stage like that.
Have you ever get a chance?
I went to see Louis Black.
I was working the night after he was at a theater in New Jersey.
And me and Diaz went across the street to the theater and we sat down in the audience.
We actually got seats in a nice spot.
But it was a nice spot in the middle towards the back.
And I was amazed at how difficult it is to understand what he's saying once the laughter rolls.
Because when you're on stage, you hear your mic, you have monitors that are projecting towards you, and you're saying things, and the punchline hits, and then the people laugh.
You have to be real careful what you're saying while people are laughing.
Because it's different than a comedy club.
In a comedy club, you can just hammer over it.
There's 200 people in there, you say something that's funny, they're laughing, and you can add a tag in the middle of it and it makes it even funnier.
Joey Diaz is the master of that.
In the middle of people laughing, he'll slam Slam me with something else, and then slam me with something else.
But in a theater that's like 3,000 plus people, you have to wait.
Because when I was sitting in the audience, it occurred to me, like, oh, when people are laughing around you, it's like people yelling at you.
They can't hear.
bryan callen
Right, right, right.
joe rogan
What's up there?
And the speaker's way the fuck over there.
brendan schaub
It's so interesting to me.
bryan callen
Wait a minute.
Guess who's doing really well with his 10 minutes?
We do our live show.
I make him get up there.
I'm like, you're going to do stand-up.
Dude, 900 people in Chicago had him dying for 10 minutes.
I looked at his brother and go, your brother's doing stand-up.
He's done this maybe 10 times and he fucking Fucking killing it.
And adding shit in the middle of the act.
Like adding shit I hadn't seen.
Like he's playing with the crowd and reacting and then adding something else.
I was like this is fucking beautiful man.
joe rogan
Well it's totally different than doing this.
Like this without a crowd.
brendan schaub
Completely different.
bryan callen
Oh yeah.
brendan schaub
Completely different.
joe rogan
But you're always funny doing this.
Just remember what you said and repeat it.
brendan schaub
That's all I do.
I tell a story.
Like I have different stories.
I'm just telling stories and I add stuff to it.
But going back to your point about the theater.
I'm brand new at this, so I thought everything was the same.
And Brian and I went to do the show.
It was like 700 people sold out, but it was a giant ballroom.
And Brian's like, now, don't get discouraged because you're not going to be able to hear it as well.
So I'd do some of my bits.
I could kind of hear him laughing, but it was kind of...
I'm like, what the fuck is wrong with these people?
And then when we got to the back, I was like, fuck them, Brian.
He's like, no, man, I told you.
Because I go based off the crowd's reaction.
When we get off the stage, I'm like, dude, that was a sick show.
Or, dude, that sucked.
And he's like, no, I'm telling you, you're not going to be able to gauge it off this.
Because we've been in small comedy places where I'm like, holy shit, I'm like, fucking Joe Rogan up in this bitch!
And then there's other ones where I'm like, what the fuck is going on with these people?
And he's like, it's the venue we're in.
joe rogan
Well, even Cobbs is kind of interesting, because Cobbs is like 400-something, and the ceiling's rather high because it has a balcony.
So the old Cobbs was crazy fun.
The old Cobbs was like, I want to say like 150 people max.
It was probably less than that.
It was really small, and it was tight.
And I used to do it.
A lot of people used to do it.
Like Don Marrero used to do it and take a loss.
He could get more money other places, but he would do cobs just because it was so enjoyable.
brendan schaub
That's cool, man.
Everywhere we go, you know, I have all the famous people on the walls.
I always take pictures.
I show you pictures.
I'll, like, send you a picture.
I'm like, look who's here.
Yeah, bitch.
Big time comedian.
You know, it's like, yeah, quit sending me pictures.
I'm always like, look at my boy.
Like, you're new to the game.
I'm taking, like, selfies with you.
Like, what the fuck are you doing?
bryan callen
You've been thrown into that.
joe rogan
It doesn't bother me.
I think it's funny.
I'm not going, yeah, I know where you're at, bitch.
brendan schaub
And then we had a manager go, you know, you're at the Wilbur, man.
This is months ago.
He goes, you know, just let you know where you guys are at.
So Rogan sold out four times.
I was like...
Why the fuck are you...
Yeah, okay, cool.
And Chris Rock's all at Madison Square Garden.
joe rogan
What's your fucking point?
What the fuck is the point?
brendan schaub
What are you trying to hurt my feelings?
joe rogan
Who's saying this to you?
brendan schaub
It's Joe, this guy, who deals with the Wilbur.
Like, it's the fucking...
It's a giant theater, man.
I'm very aware of what Rogan...
Why are you even bringing that up?
And LeBron James dunks the basketball better than me.
What's your fucking point?
joe rogan
Listen, bitch, I've done stand-up 34 times.
That's it.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I wish 34. How many times have you done it?
Only at live shows.
joe rogan
How many live shows have you guys done all together?
bryan callen
Probably 10?
brendan schaub
10?
15?
bryan callen
That's it?
No way!
Guess who's going to be doing stand-up at the Wilbur this Friday in Boston?
That guy right there.
Go on up.
It's going to be, I don't know, we're selling a lot of tickets.
joe rogan
The Wilbur is one of the best theaters to do stand-up in, because it's a three-tier, and it's shallow, meaning the people are right on top of you.
So even though there's more than a thousand people in the room, it feels way more intimate.
It seems like a bunch of 300-seaters stacked on top of each other.
It seems like the same.
brendan schaub
I can't wait.
bryan callen
Tickets available at tfatk.com.
joe rogan
Yeah, you get a feeling like a 300-seat theater, but a roar of a thousand people.
brendan schaub
I can't It's dope.
Because then we're in New York, too, and doing our bit in New York would be crazy, man.
joe rogan
Well, I took Tony Hinchcoop with me to Boston, and now he's going to go back and headline that place.
He's going to do One Night at the Wilbur in October.
There it is right there.
See how it's like...
brendan schaub
Yeah, that place is sick.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's beautiful, and it's been around forever.
bryan callen
That's the Wilbur right there?
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
joe rogan
That's it.
But that's a bird's eye view.
You know, it's a distorted view.
brendan schaub
You see how the lens is.
bryan callen
That's gonna be great.
brendan schaub
My favorite so far has been the Vic in Chicago.
The Vic Theater.
That's what it's called, right?
The Vic?
bryan callen
I love the Vic.
I think that was a Vic, right?
brendan schaub
I think the Vic.
bryan callen
Chicago was 900 people.
brendan schaub
It's like an older theater.
joe rogan
I'm doing some big-ass place in Chicago in July.
brendan schaub
I love Chicago.
Where's the Chicago Bulls play?
joe rogan
I'm doing the Civic Opera House.
unidentified
Damn.
joe rogan
I'm doing an opera house.
I'm going to sing.
bryan callen
Damn right you are.
unidentified
Just start it off like that.
joe rogan
Maybe I should hire someone to sing some opera before the show.
unidentified
That'd be sick.
bryan callen
Can you name one opera song?
brendan schaub
Who's the blind guy?
joe rogan
No, but...
Jim Jeffries does opera.
He used to be an opera singer.
bryan callen
What?
joe rogan
Yeah.
bryan callen
No.
joe rogan
Yes.
bryan callen
The last guy I would have thought of.
joe rogan
Put that photo up.
That's a really good photo.
brendan schaub
God damn, that's sick.
joe rogan
Wait a minute.
This is the Civic Opera House?
bryan callen
Dude, you're doing that?
You're going to fill it up, too.
joe rogan
It's all gold.
bryan callen
Look at that.
brendan schaub
Looks like that Prince's room.
joe rogan
Dude, that should be awesome.
That's dope.
That's the Prince of Benai.
That's his room just full of whores.
That's exactly the same design on his underwear.
bryan callen
On his MeUndies.
joe rogan
Come on, you know that dude has gold underwear, right?
brendan schaub
100%.
Why wouldn't you?
joe rogan
I would.
brendan schaub
You ran up ideas.
joe rogan
I'm saying it right now.
I want some.
brendan schaub
If anyone has 24-k gold underwear, send them.
joe rogan
I have camo underwear.
bryan callen
Come on, don't be like that.
joe rogan
Me too.
brendan schaub
Usually.
Hide them pee-pee stains.
Yeah, there you go.
Those are MeUndies?
joe rogan
Fuck yeah, that's all I wear.
brendan schaub
That's all I wear.
joe rogan
They're the best underwear in the world.
Even if they fucking drop me as a sponsor, I'll tell you, wear those goddamn underwear.
They're fucking comfortable as shit.
brendan schaub
You can't have camo on the outside and white on the inside, though.
joe rogan
Is that what you have?
unidentified
I wear MeUndies and I wear 5'4".
joe rogan
They want you to see the damage you're doing to your underwear with your farts.
brendan schaub
Hey, man.
Hey, man.
Let's go camo on camo.
Make a jungle camo at that.
Don't send that sand camo.
bryan callen
We do reads for MeUndies and he's like, MeUndies, no more light underwear, please.
brendan schaub
I'm dead serious.
bryan callen
I want dark underwear, please.
joe rogan
Well, they sent me some cool light ones, too, though, with some interesting designs and prints on them.
brendan schaub
All artsy and shit.
joe rogan
They're dope.
What I love about that company and all these companies that are emerging on the internet don't have, like, an actual store.
They're just selling things online.
Like, they figured out, like, you don't need a place.
Who the fuck wants to go somewhere?
bryan callen
100%.
joe rogan
How easy is it to just order something, have it sent to you, and then how much of a difference is getting things in the mail these days as opposed to going to stores?
How much of an impact has that had on actual retail stores?
brendan schaub
Brilliant.
Is there anything better than getting a package at home?
unidentified
It's also cheaper.
bryan callen
It's cheaper.
This 54club.com, whatever thing, literally, it's like $60 for legit.
Everything I'm wearing is from that.
joe rogan
How about Club W? Have you done Club W? Great wine.
brendan schaub
Great wine.
joe rogan
Way cheaper.
bryan callen
Thirteen bucks for really good wine.
So you're right, man.
They cut out the...
Everything we do, every one of our sponsors, I actually use the products because they're good.
unidentified
Yeah, me too.
joe rogan
Me too.
I love that.
I haven't made a website yet with Squarespace, but I want to.
But the other things like Dollar Shave Club, I don't buy razors anymore.
Do you ever use that butter shit?
bryan callen
That Carver's Butter?
joe rogan
Oh my God.
It's so nice.
bryan callen
We're trying to get the guy who started that company on because he's really funny, who does all the commercials.
joe rogan
Oh, Does he?
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
That's him, the guy in the commercials?
bryan callen
Yeah, he was an improv guy.
Started a fucking company.
brendan schaub
They're in Marina, too.
bryan callen
Yeah, we gotta get him on the podcast.
He's funny.
joe rogan
Well, I just love this time.
Because it's really the same thing that's what's going on with podcasts.
You guys don't need any sort of a company.
You guys kind of have a company, though.
You kind of have Fox.
brendan schaub
I mean, not really.
Because, again...
joe rogan
They don't tell you what to do, but they tried.
brendan schaub
Well, they tried when we first started.
bryan callen
They've been great.
They've actually been so good.
That's nice.
brendan schaub
But they also stay out of our way.
They know if they're like, hey, don't do that.
I'm like, what?
See ya.
Do what?
joe rogan
That's the thing is, like, you guys have an advantageous position in the relationship.
It's not like a regular show where they could fire you from it.
If they fire you, you will have zero impact.
bryan callen
Zero.
brendan schaub
It'd actually help us, because I'll just tell everyone what went down, and I will tell all the fucks dirt, and I will blast pictures.
joe rogan
Oh, someone's a snitch.
brendan schaub
I'm a snitch.
I'm the Novitski fucking...
I've always been a snitch.
joe rogan
Oh, no!
brendan schaub
Yeah, I'm that golden snitch.
joe rogan
The truth comes out.
unidentified
The truth comes out.
joe rogan
Golden Snitch!
How long before someone fucking makes a photoshop of you in the Salt New Brunei's outfit that just says Golden Snitch?
brendan schaub
The Golden Snitch!
joe rogan
That photoshopped Steve guy is gonna be on that, man.
brendan schaub
It's happening right now.
bryan callen
It's happening.
joe rogan
That guy is sweating right now and fucking putting it all together.
brendan schaub
No more Keto Kid, just the Golden Snitch.
joe rogan
That fucking Salt New Brunei picture was the perfect picture for you.
Just put your head on his little body.
brendan schaub
That little body.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
The golden snitch.
bryan callen
He is a little snitch.
joe rogan
And they do it in the same picture that they use for the golden child.
They use the cover, the same font and everything.
brendan schaub
The golden snitch.
joe rogan
The Eddie Murphy movie.
brendan schaub
So funny, man.
joe rogan
I forgot about that movie.
Yeah, me too.
Arsenio Hall, back in the day.
brendan schaub
Fucking Arsenio Hall.
joe rogan
That was a good movie back in the day.
That was when Eddie Murphy was in his heyday.
brendan schaub
Dude, they tried bringing Arsenio Hall back.
His same show where he goes, who, who, who?
2016. Bitch, get the fuck out of here.
joe rogan
That didn't work.
Well, it was also the real problem with that not working.
There was a bunch of different problems.
They tried to do the same show.
unidentified
The exact same.
brendan schaub
He's even dressed the same.
Doing the same bits and shit.
joe rogan
And he looks the same.
brendan schaub
Same haircut.
Sweater.
bryan callen
Doing some stand-up.
joe rogan
He's a real nice guy.
I can't say a bad word about that guy ever.
Arsenio Hall is a real nice guy.
bryan callen
Why doesn't Eddie Murphy do stand-up anymore?
I thought he was going to start trying to do it.
joe rogan
You know what, man?
Eddie Murphy has that tranny stuff.
The transgender prostitute stuff hanging over his head, I'm sure.
bryan callen
So he's afraid people will call him out.
brendan schaub
That shit would be funny.
joe rogan
Dude, when I was with Charlie, people called Charlie out on it.
They were yelling out to Charlie.
brendan schaub
Have you seen Eddie's Girl?
joe rogan
Yeah, I'm sure.
brendan schaub
Look, I... Talk about the golden.
joe rogan
He's goddamn Eddie Murphy.
But here's the thing.
He did an awards show recently and he like went up and talked about Cosby and did material about Cosby and it was fucking great.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
It wasn't just great.
His timing was great.
bryan callen
He's amazing.
joe rogan
His delivery was great.
bryan callen
Can we see it?
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's online.
See, Jamie will try to find it.
It's so good that it makes you go, whoa, if this guy was doing stand-up, he would be fucking murdering it right now.
brendan schaub
Do you think he just doesn't care anymore?
joe rogan
He's absolutely so rich and absolutely so busy, and he likes doing movies, and when he does movies, he's in a lot of ways, he's like sheltered from all these people that would fuck with him.
brendan schaub
He hasn't done a movie in a while, though.
unidentified
For sure make Nutty Professor 4. I don't know what he's done in a while.
joe rogan
I haven't really been paying attention, but the amount of money that Eddie Murphy's made from all those movies that he did.
bryan callen
From Shrek as the donkey.
brendan schaub
Oh, that's right.
Shrek's probably the last thing he did.
bryan callen
He made them a billion dollars.
He lives like a sultan.
joe rogan
I mean, there's animators and there's a lot of story writing.
Other people could have done that, too.
It's not like it was impossible to do without Eddie Murphy.
But what he has accomplished...
I mean, financially, it's probably staggering.
brendan schaub
Insane.
The Beverly Hills cops?
joe rogan
I could see him not wanting to grind.
bryan callen
Right.
joe rogan
Not wanting to go out there.
bryan callen
When you live like the Sultan of Brunei, to bring it back full circle.
joe rogan
I wonder if it does.
unidentified
I don't know if it does.
bryan callen
Or like Dan Bilzerian.
joe rogan
I'll tell you what, though.
I met him in Hawaii.
He was nice as fuck.
brendan schaub
Eddie was?
joe rogan
He was really cool.
Yeah.
He was real friendly.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Real nice.
Yeah, there it is.
Hold on a second.
Go from the beginning.
brendan schaub
Damn, he's aged great.
joe rogan
Yeah, give us some volume.
bryan callen
He really has.
brendan schaub
Black people don't age, really, don't they?
joe rogan
Well, he's in his 50s.
What happened?
What'd you do?
What's that?
unidentified
He said Bill has what?
No, because I know there was a big outcry from people.
It was trying to get Bill to give his trophies back.
You know you up when they want you to give your trophies back Trophy back to He should do one show where he just come out and just talk crazy now.
I would like to talk to some of the people who feel that I should give back my job.
Is that it?
bryan callen
He's so good at...
joe rogan
I think he did more than that.
jamie vernon
That was edited and censored a little bit.
joe rogan
Yeah, obviously.
brendan schaub
Damn, look at all those Dave Chappelle's.
joe rogan
Oh, this is just a story piece.
Murphy makes Cosby jokes at award ceremony.
They didn't want to do the whole thing.
Anyway, you guys can find it, I'm sure.
What was the name of the award?
jamie vernon
It was from the Mark Twain Awards from earlier this year.
joe rogan
I'm telling you, man, just looking at that thing right there, when you're talking about a guy who hasn't done stand-up in forever, and he just goes up there and murders it like that, and is in perfect form, his timing's perfect, he's a fucking fantastic stand-up.
brendan schaub
Such a talent, huh?
joe rogan
Amazing.
unidentified
Unbelievable.
brendan schaub
Dave Chappelle's making a crazy run, too, again now, huh?
I see him all the time.
I see you on your Instagram.
joe rogan
Yeah, we hang out at the Comedy Store all the time.
brendan schaub
He's your boy.
joe rogan
He's always there.
Yeah, he took me to some Eyes Wide Shut party in the middle of the Hollywood Hills.
What?
You had to get in an elevator and go to the top of this hill.
brendan schaub
What?
joe rogan
Yeah, it was Naomi Campbell had this birthday party.
And so Dave's like, hey, Joe, you want to go with me to this party?
And I'm like, dude, I don't like going to those parties.
I like avoiding celebrity things.
Like, oh, come on, man.
I gotta be back here by midnight anyway.
unidentified
And I go, alright, so we're smoking crazy amounts of weed.
joe rogan
We get in my Porsche.
Go up to the top of this hill.
Get even more baked.
Get in a shuttle.
It takes you up to this dude's house, and some dude who has the sickest house at the top of the Hollywood Hill.
It's just some crazy billionaire character who has a sick house, and then above his sick house, he has a sick party house.
He has just a party house.
So you go to the top of this house, and he has this...
Fucking insane view of the city where it looks like Blade Runner, you know, and he's got just 180 degrees of windows.
His party house is like a flying saucer that just got stuck in the side of a building, but the whole outside edge of the flying saucer is all windows.
So you're sitting, there's all seats around the windows, and then he has this big bar, and I mean, the guy's just...
Because it's all loaded.
brendan schaub
Scrooge McDuck.
joe rogan
And we have to take an elevator, like a four-person elevator, an open-air elevator that goes up the side of the hill.
And as we're going up the side of the hill, Naomi Campbell's naked photo is 40, 50 feet tall.
And I'm not kidding.
I'm not exaggerating.
It's this enormous naked photo of Naomi Campbell.
And then we get up to the top, and it's like fucking Demi Moore's there, and I'm...
Saying hi to Lenny Kravitz.
I'm like, this is so strange.
brendan schaub
It's so high.
joe rogan
Plus, barbecued.
brendan schaub
So high.
joe rogan
Barbecued.
So, so high.
I shouldn't be out in public.
And up there with all these fucking super rich people in them.
I'm like, what's up, Lenny?
Hey, what's up, man?
How you doing?
We're talking to Lenny Kravitz.
Like, how bizarre is this?
Yeah, cool dude.
Yeah, he seems real nice.
But it was all these, I was talking to all these musician dudes about MMA. It was like, I got cornered by all these musician dudes who started throwing that.
Oh my God, man.
Dude, people get so excited.
They get so excited.
They want to start talking MMA. They got a guy who knows.
unidentified
Yeah, meanwhile, I'm like, anything to relax my anxiety right now.
joe rogan
I'll tell you all the shit I know.
brendan schaub
I'll break down whatever the fuck you want.
joe rogan
Give me two fighters.
unidentified
Go.
brendan schaub
You want to know who's going to win?
How do people make that much money?
2017 schedule?
joe rogan
Here's the weirdest part about it.
There was one point in the night, Noemi Campbell was for a book that she has.
She has a book coming out.
She's very nice too, by the way.
Super nice and beautiful.
brendan schaub
Still a dime piece?
joe rogan
100%.
I don't know how old she is.
bryan callen
She's gotta be 40, right?
joe rogan
I would imagine she's probably closer to 50. Really?
bryan callen
Cindy Crawford is 50 now.
joe rogan
I think she's 49. I think she's a little older than that.
Naomi Campbell's 45. How old is Cindy Crawford?
unidentified
She's 45. I think she just turned 50. Ridiculously looking.
brendan schaub
Ridiculously looking.
She is ridiculous.
joe rogan
So, Noemi Camel, 45, still fucking slamming hot, right?
So anyway, she stops in the middle of this thing.
They have these photos of her.
Her book is out, and it's this exclusive book that costs like $1,500 or something.
brendan schaub
Don't charge that much.
joe rogan
Really big, high, glossy, the whole deal.
brendan schaub
Yeah, don't do that.
joe rogan
And she just stops, and they start taking photos of her, and she just starts posing.
So no one talks.
No one's talking.
Everyone's just watching.
unidentified
They're just watching her do this.
joe rogan
Because it's a Naomi Campbell party.
So it's almost like Michael Bolton gets out at his party and starts, When I'm here!
unidentified
Oh, I'd love that.
Love's a woman!
brendan schaub
I'd take it on my cell phone.
Go, boy!
joe rogan
But it's like that.
She's doing her thing.
unidentified
Her craft.
joe rogan
She's posing.
brendan schaub
Her craft.
bryan callen
That's how a supermodel does it.
brendan schaub
Amazing.
joe rogan
Oh, get it, girl.
You know, and there's just...
It was kind of a fascinating little party.
It was a good thing to dip my toe into and get the fuck out of there as quickly as possible.
brendan schaub
And realize why you don't go to those.
joe rogan
Yeah, well, it's just...
They're too famous.
They're too famous.
And what it is, to me, it's like, ooh, don't get that famous.
For sure, back off.
brendan schaub
Because you're going to get weird.
joe rogan
Well, everybody gets weird.
They're weird people, and they have to hang out with each other.
Because nobody else is going to understand.
And I was talking to Dave about that.
I go, do you like hanging out with celebrities because they're the only people that understand what your life is like?
He's like, oh man, but I'm not as famous as them.
I go, hit the brakes.
I go, that's part of your problem.
You don't understand how fucking famous you are.
You're one of the most famous comedians that's ever lived and one of the most famous celebrities in America.
Like if there's a 100 list of the most famous people in America, Dave Chappelle's on that list.
I'm not on that list.
I like to stay on the outskirts of that list.
I like to be in the suburbs of that list.
brendan schaub
I don't know, Joe.
joe rogan
I don't like being on that list.
brendan schaub
I think you're in that list.
joe rogan
I'm definitely not.
You're definitely closing in.
bryan callen
You're closing in on it.
brendan schaub
You ain't quitting.
I'm slowing out.
I'm slowing down.
joe rogan
I'm thinking about moving to Yosemite.
brendan schaub
Don't do that bullshit!
joe rogan
You've always flirted with moving out of LA. Oh yeah, absolutely.
bryan callen
Where would you live right now if I gave you one other alternative?
joe rogan
There's a few different possibilities.
I really like Colorado.
I've always liked Colorado.
Colorado is always going to be one of my best choices.
brendan schaub
You've been there, though.
joe rogan
I like the people.
I like the environment.
I like the vibe.
I like the stand-up community.
I like the Comedy Works, and I love Wendy, the owner of the Comedy Works.
That's the spot.
That's the spot where I could live.
I could live in Seattle.
I just couldn't deal with the winter.
I just think it's stupid.
There's no need to do it.
Folks, it rains too much up there.
Your summers are of the gods, and I get it that it makes you appreciate one when you don't have the other, but it's hard to know that all I can do is get on a jet and I can be in LA and it's perfect.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
The problem in LA right now is that it's really good.
Like, comedy-wise, it's never been better.
Like, there's more clubs, there's more comics, there's more inspiration, there's more fun.
Me and Stan Hope and Ron White were hanging out at the Comedy Store the other night, drinking and laughing and having fun, and I'm like, where else can this take place?
It's like, it's so rare that you'll go there and, like, a guy like Ron White drops in to do 15 minutes.
I mean, that's really what it is.
And on the list, do 15 minutes.
Burr comes by.
All these people are all hanging.
brendan schaub
Don't you think if you moved to Denver, your podcast would suffer?
Because you're not going to have as many big guests?
joe rogan
Maybe.
unidentified
I don't know.
joe rogan
I could always find out.
Who doesn't care?
I could always fly in like once a week and do it.
That would get tired.
brendan schaub
Every week you're gonna fly someone in.
joe rogan
Well, no, no, no.
Well, I could definitely fly someone there if they were willing to go.
I could look for like local people, but that would run dry.
Very fast in Denver.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
There's no better spot than L.A. to do podcasts or any of that.
joe rogan
And stand-up.
brendan schaub
And stand-up.
You can't find better.
joe rogan
But there's also the vast numbers of human beings that live in this place.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Shit.
Look at the numbers with Denver.
It's not the same as here, but how many people are moving there a month?
unidentified
I wouldn't live in Denver.
brendan schaub
It's insane.
Oh, you'd live back in the boondocks.
joe rogan
I'd live in like Evergreen.
I like Evergreen.
brendan schaub
Broomfield's nice.
joe rogan
Yeah, Broomfield's nice, but Evergreen's in the mountains.
That's what I like.
There's some views in Evergreen or Boulder.
I like Boulder a lot.
unidentified
The Boulder thing is a one-note thing.
joe rogan
Everybody's so liberal.
They're so left-wing.
I like a little mixture.
brendan schaub
They're too soft in Boulder for me.
joe rogan
Sophomore what?
brendan schaub
Just bitches.
joe rogan
Oh.
brendan schaub
Just.
I remember I went to school.
I lived there.
Just bitches.
unidentified
How so?
brendan schaub
How so?
There's just, A, there's no diversity.
It's just all white, rich white people.
Just everyone's rich or your college kid.
bryan callen
Super liberal, rich white people?
brendan schaub
If you see a black guy, he plays football.
Other than that, their lives, they live in this Pleasantville, this little weird bubble community.
joe rogan
Weird bubble.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
Weird.
joe rogan
But.
Super nice people.
brendan schaub
Yeah, they're nice.
joe rogan
Educated.
bryan callen
It's easy to be nice when you've got plenty of food and no threats, right?
joe rogan
Yeah.
bryan callen
The Golden Snitch!
joe rogan
Somebody made it already.
bryan callen
Did you make it?
joe rogan
Jamie made it!
Jamie made it while working on the show.
brendan schaub
Jamie, you're a genius.
joe rogan
Incredible.
The Golden Snitch.
bryan callen
That might be a young job.
joe rogan
Jamie, please text me that immediately.
unidentified
That must go on the Instagram page.
The Golden Snitch.
brendan schaub
That's Ultimate Fighter's shopface.
joe rogan
That's perfect.
I don't know, man.
Those two spots are big candidates.
Please don't leave L.A. Well, I'm thinking about spending time in more than one place.
Right.
The only thing that holds me back, really, and it's not really holding me back, but having a family, you have to take them into consideration when you make any move.
brendan schaub
You can't be bouncing them around.
joe rogan
Kids don't like that.
brendan schaub
Stability, son.
bryan callen
That's how I grew up.
They might turn to me.
joe rogan
Yeah.
But I'll tell you one thing, when they turn 18, if they decide to go to college somewhere and move somewhere else, I'm a ghost.
There's no way I'm going to be doing this in 10 years.
There's no way I'm going to...
Because I don't think this city is sustainable.
I think this city is like a game of musical chairs.
And I think after a while, you're like, it's going to be Mexico City.
I've been to Mexico City.
I know what it's like.
It's overwhelming.
The amount of people, like the traffic jams are insane.
Like you go through them and you're like, how is this real?
Nobody gives a fuck about a red light or a green light.
And when they want to merge, they just have to jut themselves out into traffic.
Nobody lets you in.
And I remember sitting there, thinking there, watching this, going, here's this beautiful city, this crazy ancient city in the mountains in Mexico, like 7,000 feet above sea level, you know, just with 20-plus million people stuffed in it.
And, like, LA's not that far off.
And LA's growth from the time I moved here in 1994 to today in 2016 is unbelievable.
22 years later.
bryan callen
Property values are so exciting.
joe rogan
I know, but that's going to happen here.
brendan schaub
You think it's just going to keep going?
Keep going, keep going.
joe rogan
What's going to happen?
People are going to wise up and become awesome?
No, they're going to keep moving here because this is where show business is.
brendan schaub
See, I'm trying to convince my dad to move here, especially because his grandson's here.
And so he doesn't see him.
I'm like, Dad, move, man.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
It's different, though.
I mean, that makes sense, you know, to live here with, you know, you're here, your business is here, your family's here.
That makes sense.
bryan callen
I think people will move, though.
The thing is, it's so expensive to live here.
joe rogan
Taxes ain't funny.
bryan callen
Like anything else, what happens is people go, you know what, LA's great, but you know there's this place, Raleigh, North Carolina, they're really doing the building infrastructure, and people move to those places.
Nashville, Raleigh, you know, look what happened to Portland.
That secret got out, people moved there, so...
joe rogan
Yeah, but the secret's out.
The winter sucks.
bryan callen
That's true.
But as you get, like, one of the things I notice is, like, I'll be in places, like that place we were in in Oklahoma slash Arkansas, in the middle of nowhere, this tiny little beautiful town.
We found the best coffee shop with the best single source, single origin, shade-grown coffee, you know, designer fucking coffee worthy of Keith Jardine.
joe rogan
This is the kind of shit that he gets I'm not moving there though, B. But here's the thing.
brendan schaub
There's great places everywhere.
joe rogan
Small towns are not small towns from 20 years ago.
The internet is here and people are evolving and changing everywhere.
It's a different world.
bryan callen
You can find a lot of what you like from big cities in small towns now more and more.
joe rogan
More and more.
And I think that it's important to note that the only reason to be in L.A., it's kind of retro, to have all these people jammed in together.
The idea is that this is where the cool people are.
This is where we have to live.
This is where show business is.
But what kind of show business are you really involved in anymore, other than the Goldbergs?
brendan schaub
Exactly.
joe rogan
I guess that's the last traditional thing.
bryan callen
No, but you're right about that, too.
And a lot of stuff doesn't shoot in L.A. But you don't want to shoot anyway.
joe rogan
Your stuff that you're doing, most of it is you doing stand-up on the road, or you're doing your podcast on the road, or you're doing your podcast in town.
brendan schaub
Unless you're doing auditions.
joe rogan
I told you the story about me turning that thing down before the show.
I'm not doing it.
brendan schaub
That's a gangster.
joe rogan
I'm not interested.
It's not as fun.
There's only so much time.
I want to bullhunt.
I want to get my own food in the mountains.
brendan schaub
I don't want to do any of that.
joe rogan
Dude, shoot elk.
brendan schaub
I want to act.
joe rogan
I want to hear elk go fuck hunting.
He's only waiting behind a tree.
bryan callen
He wants to act.
brendan schaub
Fuck hunting.
joe rogan
Yeah, you say that until you do it.
Let me tell you something right now.
I take you bow and arrow hunting, son.
You get addicted to archery, I'll take you hunting.
You realize the rush of taking out an elk and then eating it and then realizing all the guilt and weird shit that you have about food, about buying it from a grocery store.
You can cut out most of that.
Everything except restaurants.
I've cut it out.
When I'm eating meat, it's all this...
It's exciting.
unidentified
It's a challenge.
joe rogan
You tell me when.
brendan schaub
Nah, you're I'm in.
I wish it was a dangerous animal.
You do?
joe rogan
First of all, elk will fuck you up.
Are you out of your mind?
You'll go outside and look at that forest horse that I got sitting out there.
brendan schaub
They would run from this, brother.
joe rogan
They might.
unidentified
Sweetie.
brendan schaub
Me with an arrow?
He's not going to be like, what's up, bro?
joe rogan
First of all, he has to know that it's an arrow.
An elk might run, a moose might run at you, motherfucker.
That's a big problem with shooting a moose with a bow and arrow.
unidentified
I said an elk, son.
brendan schaub
A moose?
I'm scared of a moose.
joe rogan
They're pretty close in size.
brendan schaub
Mooses fuck people up.
joe rogan
Elk fuck people up, too.
brendan schaub
I'm going to have to watch some videos if we're going to go.
I need to get more scared.
I need some videos of elk fucking humans up.
joe rogan
Most likely, they won't.
Moose are more aggressive, because moose are traditionally in climates that deal with a lot more grizzly bear, too.
bryan callen
Yeah, but dude, see, now, if you're talking about- Yeah, son.
joe rogan
And wolves.
bryan callen
The one animal that scares the shit out of me- There's an elk.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
There's an elk fucking up some snowmen.
That's a snow- You know what I do with that fucking thing?
But dude, look at the size of that thing.
Do you understand how big that is?
That's a thousand pound animal.
With giant swords growing out of its head.
brendan schaub
I need a machine gun, bro.
bryan callen
Here's what terrifies me.
I didn't realize that grizzly bears start eating you before you die.
Ass first.
They start eating your ass.
joe rogan
Well, they don't kill you.
They just eat you.
You eventually die.
brendan schaub
That's what I was going to say.
I was listening to your show.
I've always been scared of horses.
Even more now.
I was listening to your show.
I'm like, Mr. Hands, I gotta look this up.
I went to that dark web.
Found that Mr. Hands video.
Him...
What's that?
Mr. Han's a guy who likes to have sex with horses.
Well, this horse was just a little too balls deep in that asshole.
He killed him.
joe rogan
You don't know about this?
bryan callen
You talk about it on stage.
It's a great bit.
joe rogan
I stopped doing it.
bryan callen
Oh, I'm sorry.
brendan schaub
I didn't know.
joe rogan
No, no, no.
I mean, a bit on stage.
brendan schaub
Dude, Mr. Hands is a guy.
He would go into this place.
I did all this research.
I'm fucking weird.
But it's obviously a three-man mission.
Because the cameraman, the guy controlling that big old dick wiener, that big old horse wiener, and then Mr. Hands is like this.
And so they just line that horse up.
He puts his hooves on, and then they line that dick into the asshole.
Well, this horse was like, boom, son!
joe rogan
They haven't set up.
Where the guy's bending over.
It looks like bales of hay or something like that.
Or some sort of a platform that they've designed so the guy can bend over.
And then the guy puts his asshole out and they lift the horse's legs up so his feet are on the platform and the hay is hard on.
They probably jerked the horse off first.
brendan schaub
He came in about two seconds.
joe rogan
That's how animals do it.
unidentified
Like, kadoosh!
joe rogan
Animals don't fuck like Lexington Steel.
unidentified
No, no, but this was like...
And the guy died?
brendan schaub
No, this was like, boom, boom.
unidentified
Kadoosh!
joe rogan
Yeah, and the noises.
We played the noises.
We played in the Josh Zeps podcast.
We played the noises that he makes.
It's like...
brendan schaub
But he's kind of like me.
He's like...
He doesn't die there, though.
He doesn't die there.
joe rogan
He died at the hospital.
brendan schaub
At the hospital, his friends are like, you gotta go to the hospital.
He's like, no, I'm fine, because he works for Boeing.
He's like, I'm not going.
joe rogan
Here's the thing, though.
They don't know if that video is of the time that killed him, because apparently there's hundreds of hours of videos of those guys getting fucked by horses.
Hundreds of hours.
Now, my thing is...
What the government should do is, there's no sense in holding onto that and not making a profit off of those hundreds of hours.
They should take that, make a DVD, put it up for sale, and, you know, put the money back into the coffers of the city.
brendan schaub
I agree.
joe rogan
Eat them, claw.
Make some money.
brendan schaub
I'd kind of check it out.
unidentified
It's interesting to see, because this horse's dick, it looks like this mic.
brendan schaub
It's literally this size.
joe rogan
It's like your arm, and I'm not kidding.
brendan schaub
And it goes, he goes balls deep.
This horse's ball, it goes through his fucking...
joe rogan
Yeah, it just rips him apart.
It tore his colon open.
brendan schaub
What'd you think was gonna happen?
joe rogan
Well, apparently he'd done it a bunch of times and survived.
bryan callen
I don't know, man.
joe rogan
Yeah, or done it with other animals, and then maybe the horse is what broke him.
Maybe he tried to die.
bryan callen
Put a safety ring on that bad boy.
Put a safety ring.
joe rogan
Well, the guy tries to hold onto it for a second.
brendan schaub
Whose idea is that?
joe rogan
He tries to, like, you know, like a high school girl, when they first learn how to get BJ's, they hold onto it, they have, like, a little stopper?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, that horse is not buying that at all.
brendan schaub
The horse said, just the tip?
unidentified
Nah.
joe rogan
He's like, dirt.
unidentified
Nah.
bryan callen
You gotta put an inflatable safety ring on that bad boy.
brendan schaub
That ain't gonna stop that fucking mammal.
joe rogan
It's just weird.
It's weird because they've met online in a forum where people are turned on by animals.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
They met on this forum and then decided to meet in this place that was legal.
In Washington State it was legal until recently.
brendan schaub
As long as the animal's penetrating you.
If you're penetrating that animal, that shit's illegal, son.
Like, you can't fuck a horse, but it can fuck you.
The rules have changed since Mr. Hand died.
bryan callen
I guess that makes sense.
That's like that guy, Jonathan.
brendan schaub
I'm so balls deep in it.
As soon as I listened to that, I was on the plane just researching the shit out of it.
bryan callen
But there's this guy, Jonathan Haidt, who's a social scientist, talking about that.
Certain things are legal, but they elicit a disgust response, even though they don't hurt anybody.
So he does this example of two things where he goes, if a brother and sister are in the woods having sex with a condom on...
There's nothing inherently harmful to both of them, but all of us go, ooh.
Or if a guy jerks off, or if a guy fucks a chicken then eats it, we all go, god damn, but it's not really, the chicken's already dead, and it elicits a disgust reaction, even though technically you can't really define why it's wrong.
joe rogan
Well, you said I had to bet that bit about it, about why is it okay to kill something but you can't fuck it after you kill it?
You can't do that, but if you jerked off with a chicken cutlet, I bet you wouldn't go to jail.
If somebody caught you fucking a chicken, people would be really mad.
But if you just took the breast, the chicken breast, wrapped it around your dick and jerked off, no one could say shit.
bryan callen
Right, but we still have this automatic disgust.
joe rogan
Especially if you're into ground beef.
If you take ground beef and you just take raw ground beef and you warm it up to body temperature in a plastic Ziploc bag, wrap it around your dick, and just start jerking yourself with this warm beef.
brendan schaub
It's not a terrible idea.
joe rogan
Can you do that?
Are you allowed to do that?
bryan callen
I guess you can.
unidentified
You can do that.
brendan schaub
You're talking about a hot pocket, what they call on the forum.
bryan callen
But people might not invite you to their cocktail party.
joe rogan
But if you get caught fucking a pig, even if the pig's having a great old time.
Like if you're fucking a pig and the pig's like...
brendan schaub
Loving it.
bryan callen
Loving it.
Is that your pig impression?
joe rogan
This is my pig just really hitting at the right spot.
That pig is like, oh shit, baby.
bryan callen
You're wiggling your head, dude.
brendan schaub
Oh shit, son.
That's illegal.
joe rogan
That's illegal.
Even if the pig finds you and starts backing up towards you, seeks you out.
brendan schaub
But if you bend over and that pig's like, yo, let me get at that asshole, it's legal in most places.
bryan callen
Hey, let's go back to Dan Bilzerian.
joe rogan
No, it's not necessarily legal.
And I don't think it's legal in Washington State anymore.
brendan schaub
No, not anymore because Mr. Hand's dying.
joe rogan
But it's not like a proactive, active thing.
I think it's illegal to just be engaging in sex.
unidentified
Why, though?
joe rogan
I don't know.
brendan schaub
Isn't that weird?
bryan callen
Who gives a fuck?
joe rogan
But that's the question.
Can you do body parts?
You know?
bryan callen
I don't know.
Well, what about the guy who paid the guy to kill him and eat him and they ate his genitals together?
They ate his dick together.
Like, technically, there was a legal quagmire there where they were like, well, the guy did put an ad out and he did want to be.
brendan schaub
Yeah, in Craigslist.
bryan callen
And you cannibalized him together.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Did the guy wind up dying?
Oh, yes.
brendan schaub
He wanted to be slaughtered.
Put an ad out in Craigslist and like, where was that?
bryan callen
To be slaughtered and eaten.
brendan schaub
And some dude was like, ooh, I'll do it.
bryan callen
I'll do it.
brendan schaub
And he's like, listen, but the deal is you gotta eat my dick first.
bryan callen
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
He's like, shit, I'll eat that dick like Kobayashi.
I'll barbecue that shit for you.
joe rogan
Oh, strange.
Japanese man, 22, cooks his own genitals and serves them...
No, this is...
This is a different one.
brendan schaub
This is a different story.
That one's fucking nuts, though.
joe rogan
This is a guy who didn't like his gender.
He was asexual.
So he decided to cut his dick and balls off and then serve them.
brendan schaub
Did the party know, though, or is it like Hannibal style?
joe rogan
No, they knew.
They were garnished with mushrooms and parsley.
They paid 160, what is that, pounds?
bryan callen
I don't know.
brendan schaub
Per person.
bryan callen
Way too much, way too much.
That's what it is, way too much.
joe rogan
To eat his severed genitalia in Tokyo.
bryan callen
At least they were garnished with mushrooms and parsley.
I like mine with lemon and capers.
brendan schaub
You get everything, though.
You get the shaft, the testes, and the scrotum.
joe rogan
Look at this.
He cooked the genitalia himself as he was supervised by a chef.
Whoa.
In a tweet, he offered to cook his penis for a guest for whatever that squiggly mark is.
bryan callen
I'm offering my male genitals full penis test.
He screwed him as a meal for 100,000 yen.
That's 800 pounds.
So that's roughly, what, $1,000?
brendan schaub
A little Asian guy, though.
That's a...
joe rogan
Is a pound more than a dollar or less than a dollar now?
It varies, right?
It's more now?
It's worth more?
So 800 pounds is like a thousand.
brendan schaub
He decided to split the meal between six guests, so you're not getting a lot of dick for your money.
joe rogan
The organs were surgically removed at age 22. I was tested to be free of venereal diseases.
The organs were of normal function.
I was not receiving female hormone treatment.
So he took the dick and balls away a year ago, a year before this.
brendan schaub
Kept that shit on ice.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
Well, that's probably going to tenderize it a little bit.
That works with elk meat.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it depends how you let it simmer.
Depends how you let it simmer.
joe rogan
No, I mean, it's freezing.
You freeze it for a year.
It actually breaks down some of the tissue.
brendan schaub
Especially that scrotum.
joe rogan
A lot of guys who hunt moose, they don't eat it for like six months.
brendan schaub
Oh really, and it breaks down?
Yeah.
joe rogan
Ranella's brother told me that.
brendan schaub
I feel like the dick would be pretty soft, like a filet.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I feel sick.
joe rogan
It would be all fat.
bryan callen
I feel sick.
brendan schaub
I feel really sick.
bryan callen
I know, but so...
brendan schaub
Because I'm thinking about the six people eating this tiny dick, like calamari.
joe rogan
Yeah, not good.
The other guy's a different story, though.
Find out about the guy who hired someone to kill him and eat him.
Yeah, that one's different.
But there's a lot of weird dick-eating people.
brendan schaub
Who the fuck signed you up to go to that dinner?
Are you guys going over to Ching's eat that dick?
bryan callen
Can you call him crazy?
joe rogan
Well, do you guys know about the Japanese guy?
There's a Japanese guy who killed a woman and ate her and did a little bit of time in jail and somehow or another got off or got out.
And now is a celebrity and he jokes around about eating people.
He murdered some girl and ate her.
And now he does pictures.
The Japanese culture is very different than ours.
And he does these pictures where he pretends to be biting people and eating people.
brendan schaub
He's like a scary, strange fetish celebrity.
joe rogan
I'm trying to remember the dude's name.
Ozawa or something like that.
You find him?
jamie vernon
No, I was looking for that, but you started almost...
I found this was even weirder.
joe rogan
What is this?
jamie vernon
That article that damn thing's in the way.
Man slices or woman slices.
joe rogan
Close down at the bottom of it.
You can get rid of it.
No, you see the right below that?
jamie vernon
Audible?
joe rogan
Oh my god, they're all popping up.
This is gross.
Oh my god, look at all these things that pop up.
brendan schaub
Yeah, I feel sick.
I feel physically sick thinking of these eating dick.
joe rogan
Ew.
You can't get rid of that ad?
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
Audible.
Oh, there it goes.
Okay.
Oh, it's like a coding issue, huh?
jamie vernon
Yeah.
joe rogan
I see.
Interesting, though.
It's going to things that you've researched, like Richard Dawkins, the God of the Illusion, Meat Eater, Sam Harris.
Woman slices off rapist's genitalia, forces him to eat it at gunpoint.
brendan schaub
See, that's tight move.
That I'm cool with.
unidentified
I'm in her camp.
bryan callen
Because this guy kidnapped her, he raped her.
Keep going down.
brendan schaub
Look at that guy's face.
bryan callen
And then she...
joe rogan
Convicted child molester.
bryan callen
She then approached Williams, tied him up in a bit of a bridge, grabbed a knife, and castrated him.
Wow.
brendan schaub
Is that the plot of the tattoo girl?
bryan callen
William fell asleep after drinking massive amounts of alcohol, and Walt was able to untie herself.
And then she basically...
brendan schaub
See, I'm with that.
That's cool.
bryan callen
That's awesome.
joe rogan
She should have killed him afterwards.
bryan callen
I see that bastard's junk in the microwave, grab the plate, fork, and steak knife, and cut it up like hot dogs.
joe rogan
Wow, and force him to eat it at gunpoint.
bryan callen
I grab the gun that he had left on the kitchen counter, walk over to him, force him to eat it.
I have no remorse, and I am not sorry.
That bastard deserved it, and he's going to hell.
brendan schaub
Did she get in trouble?
bryan callen
I agree with her.
brendan schaub
Eat that dick, son.
joe rogan
See, now that's a case where I think that girl should get a medal.
unidentified
Me too.
bryan callen
Me too.
brendan schaub
Why are we not celebrating her?
Why does she not have her own podcast?
joe rogan
Is she in trouble?
Find out if she's in trouble.
bryan callen
Hope not.
joe rogan
It'd be hilarious if she wasn't.
brendan schaub
Because she didn't kill him, right?
Just fed him that dick.
bryan callen
That's allowed.
That should be allowed.
joe rogan
Well, she cut his dick off.
brendan schaub
Hey, man.
Fantastic.
Well, you can't say self-defense.
Well, she was tied up, got out, cut that dick off, forced him to eat it.
joe rogan
Yeah, he needs to die.
bryan callen
Of course.
brendan schaub
Well, it's almost better he's alive now with no dick.
joe rogan
No, because he can still hurt people.
bryan callen
Good luck in jail.
joe rogan
You know, a lot of those guys, what they're doing is psychological.
jamie vernon
Son of a bitch.
joe rogan
What?
jamie vernon
False.
joe rogan
It's fake?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Oh, damn it.
brendan schaub
God damn it.
Well, the picture, I was like, well, that picture will tell.
joe rogan
Jamie Snopes it.
A fake news site posing as a Los Angeles area outlet KTLA spread a fabricated but juicy tale of a woman's revenge.
brendan schaub
That was a plot from the girl with the tattoo, whatever the fuck it was.
bryan callen
Oh, girl with the dragon tattoo?
brendan schaub
Yeah, that's why I was like, haven't I seen that, that rapist?
She fucked him up.
She doesn't feed him his dick, but she fucked him up and writes like, whore or whatever on his back and tattoo.
joe rogan
Good move.
brendan schaub
Mm-hmm.
joe rogan
See, but we're all in agreement of something like that.
Yeah, we are.
You see the possibility of someone actually doing that and how you support it?
I'm 100% in agreement of that.
brendan schaub
Me too.
joe rogan
Brian, are you checking the tweets to see if people love you?
bryan callen
No, I'm not.
I'm seeing when we have to be at CAA. You guys have a meeting?
Yeah.
joe rogan
What time is your meeting?
bryan callen
I don't know.
I just got a call from my agent.
I may have to listen to it real quick.
joe rogan
What are you guys doing?
You got some fighting the kid business?
bryan callen
Yeah, we're big shots right now.
brendan schaub
Hot in the streets right now.
joe rogan
Victim of cannibal agreed to be eaten.
To the family next door.
Oh, this is the guy.
Seems like the perfect neighbor.
He mowed their lawn, repaired their car, even invited them around for dinner.
Other residents in the small German town of Rottenburg also believed there was nothing odd about the 42-year-old computer expert whose light burned late into the night inside his creaking mansion.
Yesterday, however...
Muse appeared in court charged with killing and then frying and eating another man.
Wow.
brendan schaub
Crazy shit, right?
joe rogan
Yeah, he met the 43-year-old Berlin engineer, Bern Brandes, after advertising on the internet.
And had chopped him up and eaten him.
It was, he said, something he had wanted to do for a long time.
brendan schaub
Okay, man.
joe rogan
I always had the fantasy, and in the end I fulfilled it, Mews said to the court on his first day of his trial for murder in the nearby city of Kessel.
Yesterday, German prosecutors described how Mews had fantasized about killing and devouring someone, including his classmates, from the age of eight.
The desire grew stronger after the death of his mother in 1999, Prosecutor Markus Kohler said, In March of 2001, Muse advertised on the internet for a young, well-built man who wanted to be eaten.
Oh, he advertised.
So he asked if anybody wants to be eaten.
brendan schaub
Oh, and this guy was like, I'm down.
joe rogan
Yeah, so it was the opposite.
In the evening of March 9th, two men went to the bedroom in Muse's rambling, tumbled farmhouse.
Mr. Brandes swallowed 20 sleeping tablets and half a bottle of schnapps before Muse cut off Brandes' penis with his agreement.
And fried it for both of them to eat.
brendan schaub
Fried dick.
joe rogan
Whoa, fried dick.
Brandis, by this stage, bleeding heavily, then took a bath while Muse read a Star Trek novel.
brendan schaub
Gangster.
joe rogan
The guy cut his dick off and he went and read a book while the guy bled out in a tub.
brendan schaub
Star Trek at that.
Who reads a Star Trek novel?
joe rogan
In the early hours of the morning, he finished off his victim by stabbing him in the neck with a large kitchen knife, kissing him first.
brendan schaub
Some weird shit.
joe rogan
The cannibal then chopped Mr. Brandis' into pieces and put several bits of him in his freezer next to a takeaway pizza and buried the skull in his garden.
Over the next few weeks, he defrosted and cooked parts of Mr. Brandis in olive oil and garlic, eventually consuming 20 kilograms of human flesh before police finally turned up at his door.
With my every bite, my memory of him grew stronger, he said.
brendan schaub
That bitch is crazy.
joe rogan
Behind bars, Muse told detectives that he first consumed his victim with a bottle of South African red wine, had got out his best cutlery, and decorated his dinner table with candles.
He toasted, he tasted of pork, he said.
unidentified
He added, whoa, Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
It's not illegal.
joe rogan
Yeah.
The unprecedented case had proven problematic for German lawyers who discovered that cannibalism is not illegal in Germany.
But it's murder.
Okay, so instead they've charged Muse with murder for the purposes of sexual pleasure and with disturbing the peace of the dead.
brendan schaub
Oh shit, there's video of this.
joe rogan
What?
brendan schaub
Crucial to the case is a gruesome videotape made...
joe rogan
Of the entire evening, during which Brandes apparently makes clear his consent.
unidentified
Whoa.
brendan schaub
I'm trying to see that deep-fried dick go down.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
I want to see what that's like.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
Before setting off on his one-way journey to Rottenburg, Brandes was outwardly, at least, a successful, financially secure professional with a live-in girlfriend.
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Live-in girlfriend?
Hey, bitch.
bryan callen
After killing Brandes, the German cannibal met five other men who responded to his internet advert, including one from London.
He did not, however, kill them.
brendan schaub
His girlfriend broke up with him because it revealed that he liked men.
bryan callen
Jesus Christ.
Well, he likes to eat them.
brendan schaub
I eat dicks, girl.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Is that a problem for you?
joe rogan
Listen to this.
In July of 2001, a student stumbled over Mew's chat room and lured the German authorities who arrested him last December.
So he was, like, out running around for a while.
How long was the time between December and when he killed the dude?
bryan callen
I don't know.
There are a lot of people who might eat other people.
brendan schaub
Holy fuck, this guy is messed up.
joe rogan
He ate 20 kilograms of the guy's body.
20 kilograms is 44 pounds?
That's 44 meals.
brendan schaub
A lot of it went to waste.
I don't know.
That's a 200 pound man.
joe rogan
He didn't eat at all.
He still had some of it.
brendan schaub
They caught him before he could finish it all.
joe rogan
What does this say?
The pre-trial interview, the cannibal said that after eating Brandis, he felt much better and more stable.
unidentified
Hmm.
brendan schaub
This bitch said he fantasized about having a blonde young brother who could keep forever by consuming him.
Hey man, you batshit crazy.
bryan callen
Oh yeah.
Although they say that serial killers, like they get the final step is when they start eating and drinking the blood of their victims because it's their way of consuming and having complete and total power over them.
brendan schaub
Hey, he only gets five years in jail though.
joe rogan
What?
brendan schaub
How that fuck's back on the streets in five years is crazy.
joe rogan
Well, he's already back on the street then, because I feel like this story was five years ago.
Scroll up, Jimmy.
bryan callen
Longer than five years ago.
brendan schaub
That bitch might have got out today.
bryan callen
They made a movie about this.
joe rogan
2013. So it was three.
Oh, three.
2003. Oh, he's out.
He's out.
brendan schaub
He's out eating.
joe rogan
Yeah, Google this motherfucker.
brendan schaub
Armin.
joe rogan
Google that guy and put the word released.
Look at him.
brendan schaub
He looks like a guy that eat your dick.
joe rogan
Oh my god, he's a terrifying dude.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
He didn't win the lottery when it came to looks.
bryan callen
There you go, sweetie.
joe rogan
Look at his fucking face.
An interview with a cat.
There's an interview with him?
brendan schaub
A set of chompers on him.
unidentified
Whoa.
brendan schaub
Dude, dude.
Did they make a movie about this?
joe rogan
Yeah.
unidentified
I don't think so.
joe rogan
They did?
unidentified
Yeah, they did.
brendan schaub
Oh, I gotta see it.
joe rogan
Video original?
No way.
bryan callen
No.
No.
joe rogan
What is that?
bryan callen
That's the movie, I think.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
That's the movie?
Grim Love.
brendan schaub
I'm not ready for the original.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
My mind's not right.
joe rogan
Is there a real video?
brendan schaub
Oh, those are clay puppets.
That shit looked real though for a second.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
They show that guy with his dick cut off.
What the fuck is that?
joe rogan
Is that the real one?
brendan schaub
Oh, that's a shoulder.
joe rogan
Oh, that's the real one, man.
That's him splitting the guy down the middle.
What?
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
Yeah, don't show people, but that's him.
That's him splitting the guy down the middle.
jamie vernon
Yeah, okay.
joe rogan
That was the real pictures.
That guy hung him by his ankles and split him down the middle.
Yeah, and bled him out into buckets and shit.
bryan callen
Boy.
They say that the, who was the guy?
joe rogan
He probably hung him up.
He said he stabbed him in the neck.
That's probably how he killed him.
He probably hung him upside down and killed him.
bryan callen
Gotti's hitman, Richard, Ted, what was the guy's name?
Who was the Iceman?
joe rogan
Kuklinski?
bryan callen
Yeah, he said that what they would do is they would hang the body, bleed it, Yeah.
Or they would bring it to one of those car mashing places and put the body under a car, 15 other cars, and you'd just be, you know, pulverized.
unidentified
Disintegrated.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
I read this book called Murder Machine.
Joey Diaz gave it to me back in the day.
It was all about this guy who was a mob.
Roy DeMeo, I think his name was.
He was a mob assassin who just became a fucking complete-on, full-on psychopath, serial killer who killed God knows how many people.
Just killed people left and right for whatever fucking reason he wanted to.
And this place that they lived, this bar area where they had an apartment upstairs where they used to kill people in this apartment, they just fucking killed like a hundred people there.
unidentified
Jesus.
joe rogan
He just got addicted to killing people.
brendan schaub
And this is a book about...
Is it in his words?
joe rogan
Well, it's the story.
The investigators that caught him, how they caught him.
But it's a disturbing book, man.
It's one of those books where you go, whoa.
You just have to realize those people are out there.
bryan callen
They're out there.
joe rogan
They're out there.
brendan schaub
Stuff makes me sick.
joe rogan
It should.
bryan callen
That's why we need Tim Kennedy, etc.
brendan schaub
I can't read that shit.
joe rogan
Exactly.
Yeah.
Here it is.
An interview with a cannibal.
Documentary sheds new light on one of Germany's most infamous murders.
And this is from 2016. This year it's on YouTube.
jamie vernon
I was just looking at it.
joe rogan
So he's free.
brendan schaub
What's the documentary called?
jamie vernon
He was in jail for eight years.
I found out he said he became a vegetarian while he was in jail as well.
unidentified
Bitch, please.
brendan schaub
You can't eat dicks until we just eat veggies.
joe rogan
He's going to come out and he's going to start eating people again.
brendan schaub
You're eating 40 pounds a man, then be like, nah, man, I'm not into meat anymore.
joe rogan
How much do you think the footage of the act itself, which was shown in a closed room during a trial, is described in the documentary as too disturbing to show and so shocking that only 19 minutes of the four-hour video was shown.
unidentified
Oh, man.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
joe rogan
His behavior as a child was described as, like most other children his age, he loved animals and found country life idyllic.
brendan schaub
Well...
God, look at that fucking guy.
bryan callen
Some people look just crazy.
joe rogan
Is that the guy he ate?
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's the guy he ate.
brendan schaub
He looks stable.
bryan callen
That guy wanted to be butchered, huh?
joe rogan
Because his girlfriend caught him with men?
Is that what it was?
The flesh tastes like pork, but stronger.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
It's just amazing that he's free now.
I almost wish I could speak German so I could understand what he's saying.
brendan schaub
Bring his dumb ass in here with a translator.
joe rogan
You don't want to hear it?
Well, I don't know, man.
brendan schaub
He's not going to kill you guys.
joe rogan
It's almost like a, no, bring him in?
No, that's never happened.
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah, bring him in with a translator, like a UFC interview in Germany.
joe rogan
I wouldn't want that guy knowing where I am.
brendan schaub
Well, he just knows where your studio's at.
bryan callen
I'd have to kill him.
brendan schaub
Maybe we bring him here, kill him, eat his ass.
bryan callen
I want to start carrying two guns.
brendan schaub
That guy's not going to kill you with a gun.
That guy's not going to kill you with a gun.
joe rogan
He's not going to kill you.
brendan schaub
Everyone here can beat him up.
joe rogan
Yeah, if you let him kill you, he'll eat you for days.
brendan schaub
If you give him any sort of light, like, yeah, you know, I'm kind of depressed.
He's killing you.
unidentified
Depression is better served with wine.
bryan callen
But there are people in vans right now trolling around looking for someone to eat.
brendan schaub
I don't think so.
joe rogan
There are, definitely.
I mean, it goes back to when we were talking about bathrooms and transgender people and the amount of creeps that are actually not transgender, just sexual predators.
There's a small amount.
bryan callen
They'll come up with an angle, a way to get into a bathroom.
brendan schaub
There's someone in a van right now?
joe rogan
There's a small amount of people right now in this country, just this country, that are fighting off the urge to commit rape and murder.
Oh, for sure.
Monsters, right?
brendan schaub
You told me a white van, a group of dudes is driving around L.A. trying to...
joe rogan
You people.
I mean, probably not, but is there likely someone...
Look, all he has to do is one crime where someone drinks someone's blood and kills someone by biting them in the neck, and then it becomes a copycat.
People are weird, man.
bryan callen
I met a girl who...
We were talking and said, well, I've had trouble getting on my...
Yeah.
It's too much.
We're ruining Brendan.
unidentified
We're ruining him, man.
bryan callen
I met a girl who said...
brendan schaub
She said, now I need to move.
bryan callen
She couldn't get...
She'd had a tough time the last two years, and I was trying to ask her.
Finally, she said, well, my cousin was killed.
My first cousin was killed.
And I said, this guy was killing men.
He was spiking their drinks.
He would take them outside, have sex with them, and then kill them.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
There are people that just do weird shit.
They're just kind of predators.
They set their whole life up that way.
brendan schaub
I'm aware of predators.
You guys told me there's people in vans looking around to eat people.
joe rogan
There's people that are fucked over.
bryan callen
With puppies as lures and as Cadbury eggs and Twizzlers.
That's how you get him in the fucking van.
Just put some Twizzlers there.
joe rogan
I thought you were done.
What happened?
brendan schaub
I am, but if you put it in my face.
joe rogan
That's so weird.
brendan schaub
If you crack the Cadbury egg, I'm like, yo, dog, look at this.
Oh, shit.
bryan callen
What's this, goosh?
joe rogan
Wouldn't do a goddamn thing to me.
Listen, if you're really weak, there's some chili mangoes.
brendan schaub
Oh, you can't face me.
I haven't cheated yet, dog.
joe rogan
Okay, I'm just saying.
If I open that bag.
brendan schaub
If I walked in there and you had fresh Cadbury eggs peeled from the wrapper.
joe rogan
What about those chili mangoes?
What if I just open one of those bags and let you smell it?
brendan schaub
No, it does nothing.
unidentified
Really?
joe rogan
I get excited.
brendan schaub
Alright, well.
bryan callen
If you had to eat five, you could only eat five foods, what would they be?
brendan schaub
That Cadbury egg might sound free.
joe rogan
Five foods forever?
bryan callen
Yep.
joe rogan
Well, if I was restricted to that, I would do it only based on nutrition.
bryan callen
So elk meat?
joe rogan
Yeah, I would eat something like that, like wild game meat, avocados, healthy vegetables like kale.
It would be all boring shit.
Well, elk meat's not boring, but if I can only pick...
I would have to leave it at that.
But I think if you only ate five things, you're probably going to get sick.
Unless you're supplementing yourself, you've got to make sure you're getting a proper amount of vitamin C. Yams, I'd imagine yams, kale, avocado, elk.
bryan callen
You've got a lot of stuff there, right?
joe rogan
I think people benefit more than other animals do on a variety of different foods.
brendan schaub
Yeah, sure.
joe rogan
On varying their diet.
Yeah.
Like, animals have a problem with that.
Like, dogs.
Like, you can't switch up dog food.
If you give a dog one kind of food, then you give them something else, they just get explosive diarrhea.
brendan schaub
Babies are the same way, though.
Like, if you change the formula, baby goes, what?
And shit everywhere.
bryan callen
Can you get too much iron from eating meat every day?
joe rogan
Too much iron?
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
That's interesting.
I've never heard that before.
bryan callen
Because I had a high iron count one time when I went and got my blood done.
joe rogan
Well, how much meat are you eating?
bryan callen
But he said, not a lot, but he said, you know what's fucking crazy?
I was cooking from a cast iron.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
bryan callen
Yeah, and cast iron will actually...
joe rogan
Gives you iron in your food.
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
Trace iron, because that's the only...
bryan callen
So he said you got a lot of high ferrous levels or something.
joe rogan
Yeah, I cook a lot in iron pans.
It's supposed to be the best thing for you.
It's a good way to get iron.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
joe rogan
Probably a good way for people to get iron, too, that are vegetarians, even if you eat eggs.
bryan callen
That's exactly what they tell vegetarians, to cook in a cast iron skillet.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's a good way to do it.
bryan callen
Because you get low iron if you're a vegetarian.
brendan schaub
You also get a lot of creatine if you're eating a lot of red meat.
You don't need a dose on creatine.
I used to take so much creatine, but because of this diet, I eat a lot of red meat, stuff like that.
I don't take any creatine.
bryan callen
So you're doing your ketogenic, right?
joe rogan
Yeah, I think creatine is a legit supplement.
It's one of the few legit supplements that actually does really increase your strength.
bryan callen
I've been taking it.
brendan schaub
And recovery.
joe rogan
It does.
It's legit.
You know, a lot of these things, it goes back to the Yoel Romero thing, and even the Jeff Nowitzki thing, a lot of the stuff that we see in these stores, like GNCs and health stores that have these muscle-building things, a lot of those things are really steroids.
bryan callen
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
A different form.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
Like, wow.
joe rogan
That's why guys keep pissing hot from them.
The USADA has a website that we, when Novitski was here, he sent us to the website, and you go like A through Z, you find whatever the supplement is, and you list to see whether or not people have been popped for it.
bryan callen
Right.
joe rogan
Like, they test, and they pull these things off the market, and they just come back with some new name.
brendan schaub
They switch up molecules.
Remember Mark McGuire, the stuff he was using, you could buy at GM. Androstein, yeah.
unidentified
I took that shit.
brendan schaub
For a long time.
joe rogan
I took that shit.
brendan schaub
Yeah, you could buy all that shit.
unidentified
It was okay.
bryan callen
Was that a steroid?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Well, sort of.
It was a steroid hormone precursor, but here's the deal.
He wasn't taking that.
brendan schaub
Well, hold up.
He was taking straight up steroids.
unidentified
He was taking that and fucking whatever.
joe rogan
I don't even think he was taking that.
brendan schaub
I bet he popped him for the fuck of it just to see how he felt.
joe rogan
Maybe.
brendan schaub
But he was injecting straight testosterone like this in his neck.
joe rogan
Yeah.
That Andrastine Dion worked a little.
bryan callen
Jason Giambi, Sammy Soho.
Do you see how big...
It's been a lesson to me where I look back and I realize when you play sports and you live weights, nobody's 240 pounds and just that jacked.
Some people are.
joe rogan
Some people are.
brendan schaub
A lot of professional athletes are.
bryan callen
But you don't go from being...
That's true.
brendan schaub
But you don't go from being 185 when you're 25. If you see a big dramatic difference, especially if they're like a veteran, yeah, something's up.
joe rogan
But there's a You can achieve some incredible results with discipline and the right protocol with hypertrophy.
You could eat a lot of food all day long and lift crazy weights.
And when you're young, if your body holds up to the workload, you can put on some massive weight when you're young.
When your hormones are strong, if you do it the right way, like say if you had like a strength lifting coach and you said, hey, I want to gain 20 pounds of muscle.
If you had to do it right now, they would go, oh, we got to fuck with your hormones.
bryan callen
Right.
joe rogan
Like, you're too old at this point.
I've been told that, yeah.
But if you were 20 and you did the same thing...
brendan schaub
It's a possibility.
joe rogan
It's a possibility.
bryan callen
Also, you probably have to have a body type.
I don't really think I could do...
You know, it's hard for me to put on any muscle.
joe rogan
Maybe, but you're not a guy who's ever tried.
brendan schaub
If you're young, you have a strict program.
joe rogan
You're not frail.
No.
brendan schaub
You're not skinny.
I don't call you skinny.
joe rogan
You're not a weightlifting guy, though, right?
bryan callen
I do lift, but not like that.
joe rogan
How often do you lift?
bryan callen
Probably twice a week.
joe rogan
Twice a week is fine.
When you lift, do you lift heavyweights?
bryan callen
I try to.
I'm a failure at six.
8, you know, I don't know if that's heavy.
brendan schaub
But your guy's doing more of a cardio, like, circuit, right?
bryan callen
Like, you're not working out with that guy.
brendan schaub
Like, you're not doing, like, heavy deadlifts, squats, bench.
bryan callen
Well, I'll do, like, lately, like, I'll go from deadlift to pull-ups, you know?
And the deadlift is, by the 8th one, I'm hurting, you know?
But, again, I'll do that once a week, you know?
And then I'll do maybe some bench with, like, 60-pound dumbbells.
And then I'll do front squat.
joe rogan
You're also 49. Yeah, I'm also 49. Well, you know, one of the things about Pavel Tatsulin, his interview with Tim Ferriss, he was talking about his dad getting involved in powerlifting when he was in his 60s.
He taught his dad powerlifting when his dad was in his 60s, and like six, seven years later, he put on X amount of pounds of muscle, and he said he looks like a 40-year-old man now from, like, if you see his back.
brendan schaub
And he didn't do any supplements?
bryan callen
I think if you did power...
brendan schaub
Look at my skeptical hippo face.
Get the fuck out of my face.
joe rogan
Skeptical hippo?
I didn't know about skeptical hippo.
brendan schaub
Oh, you've never seen skeptical hippo?
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
Jamie, bring that up.
bryan callen
Bring that up, Jamie.
Jamie, bring that up.
Yeah, it's really funny.
brendan schaub
Jamie, bring that up.
bryan callen
By the way, powerlifting is good.
If you do it right, I think it's probably good for your hormones and good for your body.
unidentified
Yes.
bryan callen
I feel good when I lift heavy.
I have more energy that day.
I really do.
brendan schaub
It releases testosterone.
joe rogan
And the next day.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it's good for you.
joe rogan
Well, what Pavel thinks is skeptical.
unidentified
When you told me that six-year-old put on LBs, that's my face right now.
bryan callen
That's fucking hilarious.
brendan schaub
You've never seen some of the more skeptical.
joe rogan
What he was talking about, what Pavel was talking about was his protocol, which is that never more than five repetitions and never go to failure.
Oh, really?
Yeah, his idea is that if you, say if you lift something and like the most reps you can do is like seven, cut it off at five and put it down.
And that strength is a skill.
And then you want what he calls greasing the groove, like doing something over and over again, giving yourself plenty of time in between it so that you're strong, you're fully recovered, and you'll get stronger and you'll get stronger faster.
brendan schaub
Who's this guy?
joe rogan
Pavel Tatsulin.
He's the...
Godfather of kettlebells, the guy who came to America and started kettlebell programs.
All kettlebell instruction pretty much came out of that guy.
bryan callen
Does he live in LA? Yes, he does.
unidentified
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah, he does.
He lives in Santa Monica, I believe.
bryan callen
I would pay him to work out.
joe rogan
The back of 75-year-old deadlifter.
100% drug-free.
That's his dad.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, who knows?
I mean, maybe his dad's some fucking savage.
brendan schaub
Maybe some freak.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I'm for sure gonna need him to piss in this.
joe rogan
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Hey, uh, golden snitch.
Get on it.
No, I don't.
Oh, a piss test.
bryan callen
When you work out with a guy like that guy, how long does that work out?
Is it an hour?
joe rogan
It's a good question.
brendan schaub
If you're doing all that rest...
joe rogan
Well, what I do is, what I've been doing over the last few weeks since I listened to this podcast is, because I have stuff at home, I have a little gym in my house.
So what I'll do is I just start working out.
Well, not even in the garage.
Inside the house, I have a weight gym.
So I'll go and I'll just lift weights during the day and then I'll do it later at night.
I'll lift weights.
I'll go home now and I'll do a few sets of chin-ups and some kettlebell swings and curls and cleans and stuff like that.
Then later that night, I'll do clean squat press.
I'll do some different shit.
And I'll do my sets throughout the day like that.
brendan schaub
You're splitting it up.
joe rogan
Yeah, instead of smashing it in.
But my cardio, I still do in one big set.
So what I like to do for cardio is I like to lift weights first and get really fucking tired.
Then, once I'm really tired, I do, like, balls-out cardio for a half hour.
unidentified
That's cool.
joe rogan
So I'm already exhausted.
It's, like, more of a mental thing.
bryan callen
Hitting mitts for me is my cardio.
joe rogan
That's great.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it's great cardio.
I've been getting my cardio in with my lifting, so I'll do, like, heavy deadlifts, and the set is whatever, a set of 10 of heavy deadlifts.
I go straight from there to the treadmill, and I'll sprint as fast.
As fast as I can for a minute.
On like level 10, 11, 12. Literally as fast as I can.
And I go to pull-ups.
I just do that for five rounds.
bryan callen
What's heavy deadlift for you?
joe rogan
That's awesome.
brendan schaub
315 if I'm doing 10. That's a lot.
Because you do five rounds, it's a shit.
It gets exhausting.
joe rogan
Yeah, that only makes sense.
brendan schaub
Heavy deadlifts, for me, cardio-wise, it wears me the fuck down.
bryan callen
Nothing feels better for me.
I do the crossbar where I stand in the middle of it, and I do deadlift with that.
That, to me, is always my go-to.
joe rogan
Well, they say specifically that bar, like using that trap bar for deadlifts, is one of the best ways to excite your entire system.
brendan schaub
One of the safest, too.
joe rogan
One of the safest, but it's also like you're gripping it, the way you're gripping it.
There's something weird about that over-under grip that you do with a standard dumbbell, and then you bang it off your shins and straighten your back up.
But this motherfucker is right in the groove, so you can have really excellent posture.
It puts less of a load on your lower back, and you could really fucking stack up with some heavy weight.
brendan schaub
You can do some cool stuff with it, too.
Farmer's walks.
Oh, yeah.
bryan callen
I was thumbing through a book called The Supple Leopard.
joe rogan
How to Become a Supple Leopard.
Kelly Starrett.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
bryan callen
That looks really cool.
joe rogan
Do you see what D'Elia did?
D'Elia didn't know who Kelly Starrett was.
He didn't know Kelly Starrett is a famous strength and conditioning guy.
He just saw a ridiculous photo of him.
He does look ridiculous.
So he did this long...
You know, D'Elia has a hilarious Instagram.
bryan callen
Oh, I saw that.
I saw that.
joe rogan
He has these long, huge run-on sentences of how fucked up these guys are.
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
And he did it with Kelly Starrett and it's one of the funniest things he's ever done.
Look at that photo.
Look at what he said.
I mean, this dude, I can't stop laughing.
Does he know the camera can zoom out and he can put his head regular?
It looks like he's trying to peek into the lens saying, you guys fucking or can I come in?
He just keeps going on and on and on and on.
This is the most peeking-est motherfucker ever.
Even Tom is like, he peeks more than me.
He says, I'm dying.
This guy looks like he hurt his neck five seconds ago.
It's really funny.
unidentified
Look how long you go.
joe rogan
Yeah, it keeps going and going.
I didn't want to read it all.
But he said, this is the look that you give a guy when you're fucking his wife after he fucked your wife.
unidentified
He's so stupid.
joe rogan
He's so funny.
I retweeted it, but please go to Chris's account.
Go to Chris D'Elia and see it.
bryan callen

bryan callen
We talked about it.
I just still don't want...
I want to know...
joe rogan
That's hilarious.
D'Elia sent me a text, totally unrelated.
Like, didn't know that we were doing a podcast.
Probably didn't know we were even talking about him.
And he sent me a text...
About Kelly Starrett retweeting that thing thinking it's hilarious.
And he said, guy seems cool.
I love that shit when people get jokes.
So D'Elia just sent me this.
Psychic connection, man!
But that's what's crazy is that picture that I put up was days ago.
And the fact that he said it literally texted me while we were talking about it.
brendan schaub
That's so weird.
bryan callen
That is weird.

He's hilarious.
brendan schaub
He doesn't take pictures.
bryan callen
He knows his shit, too, huh?
joe rogan
Well, I don't think...
I mean, he's probably in the middle of a video and someone took a still of it and used it as a photo.
brendan schaub

joe rogan
He's doing, like, mobility stuff.
bryan callen
