Speaker Time Text
joe rogan
And we're live.
kurt metzger
Hey.
joe rogan
Look at you.
Smoking a blunt.
kurt metzger
I know.
joe rogan
This is your celebratory blunt.
kurt metzger
Holy shit, dude.
I'm still a little bit...
unidentified
That felt like getting an AIDS test.
joe rogan
But you're clean.
You're good.
kurt metzger
I know.
joe rogan
But you knew you were healthy.
You feel good.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I haven't felt like I had something.
joe rogan
So you were worried you were one of the asymptomatic people.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
They said as many as 60 to 70% could be asymptomatic.
kurt metzger
Right, so I was like, I don't have it, but now I've got to drive all the way back.
joe rogan
That's why it's such a creepy disease.
There was an Anderson Cooper thing we were talking about earlier, where the mayor of Las Vegas was on with Anderson Cooper, and he was describing to her how one asymptomatic person can go to a restaurant, and it showed this chart of all the people that got infected by this one.
kurt metzger
How did they get infected?
Just the air?
joe rogan
Just the air, yeah.
So he's trying to tell...
This is completely theoretical.
First of all, I don't know.
The people that are saying this from China, I mean, maybe they touched the same things.
Maybe there was a bunch of different factors.
I don't know.
I'm guessing it was just because of the air.
But I don't trust a goddamn thing they're saying that's coming from China.
If they're saying something, it's been approved by the government.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
You know what I mean?
kurt metzger
What's that paper?
The Epoch Times?
joe rogan
Epoch?
kurt metzger
Yeah, Epoch Times.
joe rogan
What is that?
kurt metzger
It's like, they'll be critical of China.
But I think the guy that owns it is a Falun Gong guy.
joe rogan
Oh.
kurt metzger
So I've seen criticism.
joe rogan
What is the difference?
kurt metzger
Well, Falun Gong is that persecuted Tai Chi religion in China.
joe rogan
Oh, really?
kurt metzger
China's fucking crazy, dude.
joe rogan
Epoch Times is a multi-language newspaper founded in 2000 by John Tang and a group of Chinese Americans associated with the Falun Gang spiritual movement.
So who is he again?
kurt metzger
I don't know who John Tang is.
joe rogan
No, no, no.
Falun Gong?
kurt metzger
Falun Gong.
It's like Tai Chi, but I guess China considers it a cult.
joe rogan
What?
kurt metzger
So they crack down on them like they're Uyghurs.
joe rogan
Oh, no.
kurt metzger
Yeah, and it's just like meditation shit.
joe rogan
Qigong exercises with a moral philosophy centered on tenets of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance.
Holy fuck, I might have to join.
kurt metzger
I know.
joe rogan
I've been looking for a good cult.
kurt metzger
The epic times, guys.
joe rogan
I've been saying this for years.
I want a good cult.
Come up with a good one that doesn't try to fuck me, doesn't take all my money, and it's not like one guy gets to bang everybody's wife.
kurt metzger
Okay, stop banging your wife.
I'm going to bang your wife.
joe rogan
They always play out like that.
kurt metzger
They do that gorilla, that fucking classic chimpanzee dominance thing where you lose face and balls.
Well, I would have said Jehovah's Witnesses was a good cult.
Because I'm not really bitter at Jehovah's Witnesses.
joe rogan
Well, let's tell everybody who doesn't know, because people might not be aware of your background.
You grew up as a Jehovah's Witness.
You're one of my friends that has the most rock-solid rules on not tolerating horse shit.
Because when people start bullshitting and saying nonsense, you're always the guy that's like, I know where this goes.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well, for something like that, I'm hyper...
I am very, like, hypersensitive to culty.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
I just don't want to go along with a thing because you have to go along with it.
unidentified
Right.
kurt metzger
And, like, come on, we're doing this.
joe rogan
That attitude is important.
kurt metzger
Well, I just...
That's the reason I left...
Jove's Witnesses.
Of course.
I didn't want to have that.
Then, when I got out in the world, you can't escape it.
All these people that claim to be secular, that jump down your throat online or something like that, it's all the same shit, but they just got rid of the Jesus.
joe rogan
Yeah, they got rid of the higher power.
kurt metzger
The love of Jesus Christ, they just got rid of that.
It's a pattern, right?
joe rogan
It's a pattern.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I guess a set of habits.
It's comforting.
A comforting routine, I guess.
joe rogan
But it's, I mean, the thing when people do it to people.
It's almost like whether they're doing it because you're not a believer in Jesus, or you're doing it because you're not a vegan, or you're doing it because you don't support gender pronoun freedom.
Whatever it is.
That hardcore, you can sort of fit that mind into a bunch of different slots.
kurt metzger
Yeah, this is what I do believe from religious people.
There is a human need for what religion fails.
And it's like, you know, hey, great, you got rid of Saddam, but now who's taking over?
I'm not so gung-ho on the, like, we need to get rid of, like, the Bill Maher level of atheism.
He's like, grow up or die.
That, like, I think he's not understanding, you know, some people need that.
And it's nothing to do with smart or stupid.
It's just a very deep feeling of belonging.
And if you don't get it from God, there's going to be, you know, there's worse shit to get it from.
joe rogan
Yes.
Yes.
There's some moral tenets if you really adopt Christianity.
Some of my favorite people are Christians and pretty hardcore Christians, people that I really like.
Here's one.
kurt metzger
Listen, if you ever met a Christian, they're delightful.
It's just they're like unicorns.
There's probably like three of them.
The rest of the people are on a football team.
joe rogan
You know who's a real Christian in an admirable sense of the word?
It's Chris Pratt.
Guardians of the Galaxy guy?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I've heard that.
I've never met him.
joe rogan
He's one of the nicest guys I've ever met.
He's so nice and genuine and right there with everyone.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
He's very religious.
But I'll tell you what, man, if that's what it is, it's like if following those tenets the way that guy does, it turns you into that kind of a person.
He's an admirable person.
kurt metzger
That's how you're supposed to...
It's not supposed to be...
You know, you're preaching at people.
Your behavior is supposed to be the witness.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
And so people that come into it, a lot of times that's why they do.
They go, well, I saw this guy.
I'm like, if that's what that is, I want to be that.
joe rogan
You know what it's like?
It's like they've got to abandon the goofy stories.
If they just came out and said, listen, it's our belief that living in this way With this belief in a higher power and that holds you to a higher standard of behavior.
If all of that along with these tenants, you know, loving thy neighbor and treating each other as brothers and sisters as if we were all one.
Just all that.
You just got to stop saying someone came back from the dead.
You got to stop saying that.
kurt metzger
Well, even those goofy stories, which I always would say that when I left.
A lot of them still work as metaphors, you know?
joe rogan
Yes, yes.
kurt metzger
The ones that...
There's people at all levels of smarts, and they all need a thing to get on board.
So some people need a goofy story to get on board.
Like I said, I don't think that's the linchpin that's harming it.
I think it's just...
I don't believe that it transforms people's hearts.
Like, there's people that I saw when I was in Jehovah's Witnesses that they had a fucked up life that they turned around.
Okay?
But I don't think that that...
It fundamentally changed anything but their behavior.
They were just who they were, and this gave them a window to be, you know, like a good person.
joe rogan
Well, it's sometimes just a scaffolding.
You just need something to sort of build on, hold on to.
unidentified
A structure.
kurt metzger
A lot of people never had a structure.
joe rogan
Right, right, right.
kurt metzger
So, you know, but if you're a psychopath, it's not going to change you into a not a psychopath.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
It's going to be horrible because you're going to apply your psychopathic tendencies to the religion.
joe rogan
Well, and you see that, right?
I mean, the worst of the evangelists, that's what you're seeing, right?
You're seeing a con man who's found a tool that's beyond reproach.
kurt metzger
Well, some of them are just like, you know, they're like, almost like, same as Marilyn Manson when he, you know, he had his thing that he did, Marilyn Manson, but he was ultimately like a guy that's going to play golf like Alice Cooper, like...
Hey man, I'm doing a show here.
That's what those guys...
Steve Martin made that movie...
What is it called?
Where he's...
Leap of Faith?
He plays like a TV preacher.
And he...
Because he saw this documentary about a real guy named Marjo...
Who copied Mick Jagger.
So he would go to these churches and do moves like Jagger for these old ladies.
And he would talk about it.
And he was just openly saying how it was a scam.
Anything you're making money off of like that, it doesn't go together.
That's how you know automatically the guy's full of shit because he's making a ton of money off it.
joe rogan
If they're a preacher.
kurt metzger
Yeah, you're not supposed to get rich.
How come Jesus didn't get rich?
joe rogan
Right.
And especially when you get like arena rich.
Like you're buying arenas.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
Like what's that guy's name?
kurt metzger
The Joel guy?
joe rogan
Joel Osteen?
Yeah.
See, these guys come out of nowhere.
kurt metzger
He's trying to do the least harm.
joe rogan
They're like pop singers.
They're like pop singers.
I don't know about them until they get so huge that they break through the public vernacular.
It's like pop singers.
kurt metzger
Like I just learned who Billie Eilish was.
I didn't know this whole time.
I'm like, she doesn't know who, Van?
joe rogan
My sister had to inform me about Adele.
She goes, you know that song, Hello?
I go, no, I don't know that song.
kurt metzger
You never had heard it just like...
joe rogan
No.
No, I've been fortunate to dodge a lot of...
Not her, not in a bad way against her.
I think she's got an amazing voice.
kurt metzger
Don't get me wrong.
But you just haven't seen a lot of horse shit.
joe rogan
Dude, I'm old.
kurt metzger
You're very talented.
joe rogan
I'm an old white guy who likes rap music and classic rock.
kurt metzger
Hey, I'm just an old one.
I like my classic rock.
joe rogan
I like Led Zeppelin.
I like...
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah, right.
So you knew who Van Halen was, not like Billie Eilish.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
Of course.
Dude, Van Halen.
But it's just like, at a certain point in time, I'm taking in too much music.
I don't have time for all this new stuff.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well, there's an age where I was like, weren't we just talking about a different something I didn't care about?
joe rogan
Well, you know what's interesting about music is our lifetimes and our parents' lifetimes are the first times in human history where people had music collected where they could listen to it over and over and over again.
Our grandparents were probably the first.
My grandparents came over from Italy and from Ireland in the early 1900s.
So when they were coming over here, I guess they had record players, but how prevalent were they?
And what kind of music did they have?
kurt metzger
I thought they had to stand around the window of a rich person's house, like a slave cranks the handle.
joe rogan
But, like, where was the recordings?
You know what I'm saying?
Like, they weren't that prevalent.
There certainly were some.
You know, they had recorded music before then.
But it's not like it was on your phone.
kurt metzger
Didn't we send, you know that gold record we sent into space that has, like, a picture of, like, a transphobic picture of a man and a woman?
joe rogan
Does it have a dress?
Does a woman have a dress?
kurt metzger
The woman has a dress and there's just those two.
joe rogan
Doesn't she just have breasts?
Do you know what the image looks like?
kurt metzger
Oh, dude, it's hilarious.
And then the music, like some blues guy, like old Catfish Willie or something.
joe rogan
Something like that.
Yeah.
So just got some cool shit to make us look interesting.
Here's our drawing.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
It's on gold because we're flossing.
kurt metzger
This is what we're into, dude.
joe rogan
They sent it on a gold plate, you know.
It was like a gold record.
kurt metzger
Yeah, it's on a gold plate, but the drawings made me laugh because they're all like stick figures.
joe rogan
I watched that movie Contact the other night.
kurt metzger
With Jodie Foster?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Fuck, it's amazing.
kurt metzger
Dude, I forgot how good it was.
joe rogan
Holy shit, is that a good movie?
kurt metzger
A lot of it's good, but you weren't annoyed that the aliens are like, we're going to look like your dead father because you couldn't handle...
joe rogan
No.
unidentified
I can handle seeing aliens.
joe rogan
Is it?
But there's images of males and females.
kurt metzger
You've got to flip it over to the B-side.
joe rogan
Yeah, there it is on the other side.
kurt metzger
Yeah, where's the man and woman?
joe rogan
Oh, there you go.
kurt metzger
There's two tits on the bottom.
joe rogan
Where?
Where is it?
Isn't it in there, though?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I thought there was.
joe rogan
Maybe it's something else we're thinking of?
kurt metzger
I don't know.
joe rogan
But I swore there were images on that thing.
kurt metzger
Of what humans look like.
joe rogan
So why is different discs have different images?
There's not more than one disc, is there?
kurt metzger
Are we sending mixed messages to them?
jamie vernon
Something's coming up, but it's not a picture on the gold thing.
kurt metzger
Are there titties on this record?
joe rogan
What do they look like?
Is it recognizable?
jamie vernon
It's like someone just drew it, though, on a piece of paper.
joe rogan
And like I said, this is on there.
The Pioneer plaque?
Okay.
Well, whatever it is, in the movie Contact, they got that recording and they sent it back to Earth.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
And that movie, like...
kurt metzger
It had a cool, like, how it might go down thing about it.
joe rogan
So much about it was cool.
kurt metzger
It's just the end.
The end was like, come on, man.
joe rogan
And the guy who blew himself up, like the religious dude who blew himself up, like that was a little cartoon.
kurt metzger
I swear.
I thought you were just going to say the guy who blew himself.
I'm like, well, that was an interesting part.
joe rogan
Spoiler alert.
kurt metzger
Yeah, who was the guy that blew himself up?
joe rogan
I think it's Gary Busey's son.
kurt metzger
Jake Busey, that's right.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's great in it.
I met that guy recently.
kurt metzger
And also the idea that, you know.
joe rogan
He's great in this movie.
jamie vernon
This was like a piece of paper called Pioneer 10. Oh, that's it.
joe rogan
That's it right there.
jamie vernon
This was not the same as that gold thing.
unidentified
Okay.
jamie vernon
This was 72. The gold thing was 73. Oh, okay.
joe rogan
Well, this was the first then.
And then the record was a different thing.
Okay, we conflated the two.
So go to the image again.
Let me see the image.
kurt metzger
Let me see the guy's dong.
joe rogan
Go to the one on the left.
That one right there.
Yeah, make that one big.
kurt metzger
Is that what they're gonna think dongs are?
joe rogan
He's like, hi, here's my dick.
And she's like...
kurt metzger
Now, most human dicks don't come past the balls.
joe rogan
And I like how they had the woman built like a real woman.
She's not like a porn star woman.
kurt metzger
Well, where's her penis?
joe rogan
Gave her a little bit of an ass.
Her penis?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
He's like, hi.
kurt metzger
Where's penis women on here?
joe rogan
Isn't that a...
I mean, it's a weird...
kurt metzger
Yeah, if they show up and think we're down to party and everybody's all bundled up...
joe rogan
Well, that image is showing us how ridiculous we, like, assume the aliens would think our clothes are.
kurt metzger
Yeah, what if the aliens send theirs back and they're fully clothed?
And like, why did you guys...
joe rogan
Why did you send me a dick pic, you fucking weirdos?
unidentified
It's an intergalactic dick pic.
kurt metzger
We actually sent a dick pic to space.
joe rogan
It's an intergalactic dick pic.
And it's an unnecessary dick pic too.
No one looks like that when they're waving to you.
That's sending a bad message.
Like, hi, I'm naked.
Here I am.
No, you'd be covering your dick and balls like, hey man, where the fuck did you come from?
Can't just look at my dick and balls.
This is weird.
kurt metzger
I like that they didn't really put a vagina.
They just put, like, here's the important parts.
unidentified
Right.
joe rogan
Well, you see the penis?
Clearly.
And the vagina's like...
kurt metzger
And then she Barbie dolled.
They Barbie dolled the...
joe rogan
The woman's little Barbie dolled.
Where's her pubes?
Where's everybody's pubes?
Is this on a porno set?
This is a porno set.
How come they got hair in their head?
They don't have hair in their box.
kurt metzger
Well, when was this sent out?
They probably did have hair.
joe rogan
72. Hairy as fuck.
This is misleading.
This is misleading.
kurt metzger
So they were very futuristic back then when they drew that.
joe rogan
They were really into porn.
They were way ahead of their time.
kurt metzger
And why does the guy have such Caucasian hair?
That's my other question.
joe rogan
Right, right.
What percentage of the population has hair that looks like that?
kurt metzger
It looks like a young gnome Chomsky's hair.
joe rogan
It's just a weird image.
It's very weird.
kurt metzger
Hi, aliens.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Here's my dick.
joe rogan
But also, it's weird in just that...
We're kind of acknowledging that superior intellects would think clothes are weird.
kurt metzger
Is that what that is?
joe rogan
We're letting them know.
Underneath all our Adidas and our fucking jeans.
kurt metzger
They must have argued about that, too.
They must have had a long conversation.
joe rogan
The people that are funding this are like, really?
We draw on a dick and send it out to the aliens?
kurt metzger
Who is funding it?
I don't know.
joe rogan
I mean, who is making the call?
kurt metzger
Sounds like the cowboy guy from The Simpsons.
joe rogan
It was probably a Nazi.
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
Honestly, like legitimately.
kurt metzger
That's right.
Didn't we get all like Wernher von Braun?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
Dude, Wernher von Braun was a legit Nazi.
They used to hang the slowest Jews in front of his rocket factory in Berlin.
Yeah.
Jesus!
Oh, dude.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center said that if he was alive, they'd prosecute him for crimes against humanity.
kurt metzger
What do you mean the slowest?
Do they have a race?
joe rogan
They had some thing where they would make everybody work faster and harder by killing the slowest guys, the slowest girls, whoever the Jewish prisoners, and they would hang them.
kurt metzger
I remember him from a Disney thing about rocket science.
joe rogan
He was a part of Operation Paperclip.
There he is, right there.
And Operation Paperclip imported all these Nazi scientists to run NASA. I knew that, but I didn't know...
He's a part of that.
kurt metzger
I thought he was always like, no, I wasn't with those guys.
joe rogan
Bro, look at him, chilling.
Go to that picture again.
unidentified
Hold on, sorry.
joe rogan
Just stop and think about that.
This dude was a Nazi in Germany during World War II. Comes back and he's running our space program with his feet up on a desk.
kurt metzger
Do you want to go to space or you want to get hung up on people's Nazi pads?
joe rogan
For real, that's what it does.
kurt metzger
You want to get a dick pic to space or not?
joe rogan
They got this genius bilingual motherfucker to come over here and show us how rockets are done.
They were ahead.
They were ahead with rockets.
They were ahead with engineering.
kurt metzger
Attell goes, they're all ahead with science because they plug an extension cord into a Jew to try to invent a computer.
joe rogan
Attell.
I miss him.
He's the guy that, like, I don't want him to not be doing stand-up.
kurt metzger
Oh, I know.
joe rogan
For this downtime.
You know, he's...
I don't know anybody who does as many sets as Dave.
kurt metzger
Oh, dude, I like calling, because I always know what Tim Cole, because he's got, there's no, you know, it says no number, and it's like a really ungodly hour, like...
He was killing me, dude.
He wanted to make a prank show called Prankistan, where it's just Middle Easterners doing pranks on people.
The most inappropriate pranks.
joe rogan
He shouldn't be taking time off.
When do you think we'll be able to do stand-up again?
kurt metzger
I was going to ask you.
joe rogan
Oh, shit.
That's the problem, right?
kurt metzger
When everyone can get a test for COVID-19?
joe rogan
No, the problem is when...
You think that'll be it?
kurt metzger
I don't know.
I didn't realize that the tests were so...
They're around.
I thought...
Is it just in some states they don't have the tests?
joe rogan
Well...
Some places don't have them, and there's that.
There's also that there's some tests that are FDA approved and some aren't.
And why that is the case, I'm not going to speculate because I really wouldn't know what I'm talking about.
kurt metzger
Probably whoever fucking...
joe rogan
Could be.
I would be pretending if I knew.
kurt metzger
Whoever flew on the Epstein plane with the FDA guy.
joe rogan
But the company I use is, they're very confident that their tests work, and they say, even though they're not FDA approved, it's for your well-being, for your own knowledge.
kurt metzger
Is it that they're incorrect mostly with false positives, or they won't tell you and you did have it?
joe rogan
I don't know.
It's a good question.
kurt metzger
Because if it's false, if they tell you that you had it and you didn't, that's not quite as bad.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
It's a little more safe than sorry than a...
joe rogan
The doctor said they've had many positives.
They've had plenty of positives.
And a lot of people that just had like a little bit of a cough for a few days and went away and it turned out to be positive.
kurt metzger
Really?
joe rogan
Yeah, and some people with no symptoms at all.
kurt metzger
Okay, so if you just had a cough and went away in a few days, does that mean you don't get...
joe rogan
That's a good question, right?
Does that mean that you're immune?
No one knows.
They don't know.
They really don't know.
It's a new disease.
Whenever something's new, it's like there's guesswork going on.
It's like, who knows?
They don't really exactly know.
They know a few things about it.
They're learning more.
kurt metzger
Aren't they getting lots of help from China?
joe rogan
There's plenty of help.
The lady, the Las Vegas mayor, Anderson Cooper.
So Anderson's explaining this to her.
And he's in a restaurant in China.
She's like, China!
This is Las Vegas, Nevada!
This isn't China!
He actually said to her, wow, that's very ignorant.
kurt metzger
That's an incredible...
joe rogan
It was indicative of how those are, first of all, indicative of how those are not real conversations.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
You're going to talk about something that complicated it shouldn't be.
You're over there.
I'm over here.
There's like a fucking thing in your ear.
You don't even see me.
And you're just talking into a camera, which is what a lot of those are.
kurt metzger
He loves it.
Anderson Cooper is one of the ones that loves...
He loves, like, pretend performative, oh, I can't believe this, and he's like, keep it coming.
joe rogan
Yeah, keep it coming, baby.
kurt metzger
What's it?
Don't remember him as Donald Sterling?
When Donald Sterling was like, when Magic had those aids, I used to pray for him and all that shit.
And I watch Anderson Cooper in the beginning go, warning, it might be kind of shocking.
Like, is it?
Like, it looked like he was holding in, jizzing his pants every time the guy would say another word.
joe rogan
Well, he's very good at his job.
He must enjoy some of that.
He must enjoy catching people saying stupid shit like that.
kurt metzger
I mean, that's like what their whole job is.
unidentified
This is Las Vegas, Nevada!
kurt metzger
I mean, I do appreciate it.
joe rogan
What does that mean that disease doesn't spread the same way with people from Vegas?
First of all, people from Vegas are from the whole world.
That's what's ridiculous.
kurt metzger
Look, there's a ton of Chinese people gamble a lot.
joe rogan
A lot!
kurt metzger
Like, there's probably in Vegas before anywhere.
joe rogan
Bro, they build casinos to the standards of Chinese people.
Like, if there's things that are not feng shui, like, here's an example.
The MGM. He had to walk in through the mouth of a lion.
kurt metzger
They don't have black people in?
joe rogan
And they were like, check, please.
We're not walking through a lion's mouth.
kurt metzger
They had to change the fucking facility.
joe rogan
Yes, it's bad luck!
You can't walk into a fucking lion's mouth.
kurt metzger
It does make sense, by the way.
joe rogan
It totally makes sense.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
What are you, stupid?
kurt metzger
I have that superstition now that you mentioned it.
joe rogan
Especially if you're gambling?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
And you're like, come on, babe, I'm going to take these motherfuckers down.
And then you're walking through a lion's head.
You're like, goddammit, it's a trap.
I'm so stupid.
I walked into the lion's mouth figuratively.
kurt metzger
Can they make it like a dragon's head or like a better luck animal?
joe rogan
I don't think you're allowed to walk through an animal's head.
That means the animal's eating you.
They're more sensible about it than we are.
kurt metzger
What if it's a very lucky dragon and it's eating you?
That's gotta be good.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's like you gotta be in the belly of the beast in order to get the magic.
No, they're not dumb.
They're not gonna go through that fucking lion's mouth on their way to a den of gambling, trying to win money from this multi-billion dollar machine.
kurt metzger
Maybe if you didn't slaughter every rare animal to get a fucking six-inch boner, you wouldn't have these bad luck problems.
joe rogan
Dude, can you imagine that whole rhino horn thing?
Like you're over some dude's house and you're like...
Would you like some rhino tea?
That's what it was, right?
kurt metzger
The principle is literally just because it has a fucking horn that looks kind of like a dick.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Don't have anything dick-like on your person as an animal in China because somebody will be like that.
Somebody's got to snort powder of that.
joe rogan
Well, I talked to a friend of mine about this.
He knows a lot about Chinese culture.
And what he said was that it's not really that they think it's going to give them a boner, because they know about Viagra, but it's that it shows that you have this.
So it's a very difficult thing to get.
kurt metzger
Did you ever go there?
joe rogan
I've never been to China.
I've been to Taiwan, though.
kurt metzger
Taiwan is very different, I think.
I've never been to Taiwan, but I went to the, you know, mainland, the big island of China.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
And it was the most materialistic, like, you know, having big labels on your clothes.
There's all these fake Ed Hardy jackets that I guess are very expensive.
And it would have, like, remember Minnie Pearl that had that big price tag on her fucking head?
It was, like, that big.
And it would be hanging off a very obviously not Ed Hardy jacket.
joe rogan
Dude, there's a sneaker where it's in style to wear the label.
We had a shit fit about it on this podcast.
What's it called again, Jamie?
unidentified
Off-white shoes.
joe rogan
Yes, there you go.
Thank you.
It's a giant plastic tag.
I hope it's a GPS tracker that just tracks dummies.
kurt metzger
It might be.
joe rogan
Look at all these dummies with these tags on their feet.
Let's see what they do.
The people that keep that shit on their feet.
Let's see what they do.
kurt metzger
That's the biggest insult you could say to someone.
It's like, I heard you're poor.
That's a terrible, terrible insult there.
joe rogan
Why would it say, I heard you're poor?
kurt metzger
It's just a way that people insult each other.
Like, oh, you're poor.
That's the meanest thing you can say.
I mean, it's probably not the meanest.
Go walk in a tiger mouth is the meanest.
joe rogan
You're talking about in China.
So if someone says, I heard you're poor, that's like the worst insult they can say to you.
kurt metzger
Calling you poor.
The I heard part is just...
That's just how it came out.
joe rogan
Just calling you poor is like the ultimate insult.
kurt metzger
Yeah, so everything...
It's like an 80s movie bully...
joe rogan
You know what's important about that?
Whether it's North Korea or China, it's important for us to realize that there's styles of living that work.
And one of the big ones that works is freedom.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
And this is the best place for that freedom style of living is right here.
And then you realize that in this same day and age, not a small country, but a country with three times as many people as us can be controlled by a military dictatorship.
kurt metzger
Well, dude, I was shocked.
It sounds like a weird thing to say, but I was shocked by how much more freedoms they had.
And I don't mean...
You're not free to like, hey, fuck you, the government.
You're not at all.
Don't even go home.
unidentified
At all?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
If you said anything like that, they would come after you.
kurt metzger
No, when I did comedy, you'd say, any political shit you want, just nothing about China.
And at the time, I was like, I don't know anything about China, so fine.
So...
But you could just smoke wherever, like the hospital.
You could, like my friend, we went to go eat at some hot pot place.
That was like the only Chinese food I had was hot pot, it's called.
And we couldn't find parking.
And he fucking parked on some stairs, like the front stairs to a building.
He just parked like that.
And I was like, are you allowed to park here?
And he goes, it's fine that it's late.
The cops went home.
The cops just go home at night.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
kurt metzger
Yeah, so that's why they had to have that.
So, you know, it is like 1984-ish, but that social credit system where they can't possibly police that many people.
The cities I went to were like three New York City cities all next to each other in a row.
Like, it's enormous.
It's like fucking Judge Dredd.
It looked like going to the future is what it looked like.
Everybody had a mask on.
joe rogan
I got a theory, man.
And my theory is, if you look at all the old, old cultures, like so many of the old, old cultures, except for parts of Europe, but a lot of the old Asian cultures, they still, like they've been around, like what country's been around longer than China?
kurt metzger
Yeah, that's a massive point of pride.
It's like you get an inverse kind of, like in America's, it's like new money compared to old money, like the...
joe rogan
My point was, I wonder if after a certain amount of years, even a real valid democracy eventually gives in to the weight of people's instincts to control each other.
I wonder if China's the most controlling, but it's the longest surviving country, right?
kurt metzger
Somebody told me that they've had the same government this entire time.
Yeah, exactly.
It's just been the same way forever and you just change the names of stuff.
So that's really what communism is.
The part of communism they're taking is like the state control.
Yeah.
But they have like a very like no welfare system kind of – it feels like an 80s movie.
Like greed is good if it has that feeling about – you know what I mean?
And also, I was shocked how good the comics were.
Really?
Yeah, well, all the streaming stuff is there.
So, you know, whatever.
They've seen all your comedy.
So they have like, I was just surprised.
Like, oh, this is like, they get how to do stand-up.
joe rogan
So, were they expats?
Were they people that lived there?
kurt metzger
The shows I did where there were expats and also people from there.
Wow.
joe rogan
That's cool.
But it's got to be a tricky tightrope to walk doing stand-up in China.
kurt metzger
Dude, not...
Well, I had nothing to say about China.
I didn't know any of Winnie the Pooh stuff at the time.
joe rogan
Yeah, but I mean, for someone who does stand up there in China, like locals...
kurt metzger
You have to more...
I think what you have to worry about is another business, because it's popular.
People like it, but let's say some guy down the block runs a bar.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
kurt metzger
And he's jealous that you're getting business.
He can go to the interior ministry people and go, they're putting anti-communist propaganda out.
And then something with a buddy of mine.
And he knew people at the ministry.
And they go, listen, we know you weren't doing that.
But you just can't do shows for six months.
Because merely because someone reported it, we have to do that.
So that's the shitty thing.
joe rogan
This is one of the instinct that people have to do things like that.
It's one of the reasons why I got so upset when LA started offering rewards.
kurt metzger
Snitches get wishes.
joe rogan
Snitch on social distancing violators.
So if someone is like high-fiving his neighbor or you go over to the next door neighbor's house, you have dinner or something like that.
People are snitching people out for money.
kurt metzger
I was already reporting people for high-fives before this virus.
joe rogan
People are like, they're getting very into...
kurt metzger
Well, don't you think they just figured out, like, the people like that?
Because when this is the first thing for his hit, people didn't...
It was funny watching, especially, like, the social jihadis trying to figure out what side of this they're on.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
And they're like, well, I don't know.
So for a little bit they were like, okay, whatever Trump says, I'm against that.
And then now it's more on the, okay, you've got to social distance.
Enforcing it, it seems like that group went to that now.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
And also policing who gets tested.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Well, it seems like this is the new thing now, right?
It's like, here's the new thing to be outraged about.
It's like, who is going outside without a mask?
Who is doing this without gloves on?
kurt metzger
Well, you have to transfer your business.
unidentified
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Because that was a big business before this, and it's like, how do I adjust my business?
Because I don't think anyone is outraged.
Yeah, no one is outraged.
joe rogan
Do you think they aren't?
Or do you think they are foolishly focusing on things that are not as important Well, that's if you are serious about it.
kurt metzger
But that's not the people that make a living off doing it.
If I see it in the media, then it's not sincere.
100%.
joe rogan
Well, there's a lot of that, for sure.
But there's a lot of things.
You can't rule out people actually being upset about something that's legitimately upsetting.
kurt metzger
Unless you're making, it's almost like the thing we're talking about, the preacher thing.
If you're getting rich off it, I don't believe you.
joe rogan
Well, the problem is it's like a cry wolf thing.
It's like there are some things that, like, did you see the Elon Musk beef that he got in with someone who is a reporter for CNN? Yeah, why?
kurt metzger
Okay, why are they so anti him?
joe rogan
I don't know.
I don't know, but it didn't make any sense because he said- That's the respirator thing.
Yeah, and he said, are you aware that there's a search function on Twitter?
And then they played little semantic games to- Well, he started retweeting these different nurses that are showing these respirators and they're like thanking him and smiling and holding up the Tesla sign and he showed all the different places that are getting these respirators and explained and they're still- They're not going to go back on it.
kurt metzger
They're not retracting it.
Well, they're not technically respirators.
They're a different kind of thing.
joe rogan
And they are respirators, by the way.
It was different ones from different places, I believe.
kurt metzger
It's ones hospitals asked him to get, and they are respirators.
They're non-invasive respirators.
It's bullshit.
joe rogan
They're CPAP machines.
But it's pumping oxygen into your lungs, right?
It's a type of a respirator, isn't it?
kurt metzger
I don't know.
I don't have COVID-19.
I got tested.
joe rogan
Well, you just did.
Congratulations.
I'm talking out of my ass, but I do know that oxygen goes into those things.
I mean, that's the whole reason why sleep apnea people wear them.
kurt metzger
No, they're a kind of ventilator.
And the hospital said, could you get these for us?
joe rogan
But out of all the shit to give someone a hard time about, it's like he's donating these things for free.
kurt metzger
He trashed the media.
Didn't he on Twitter be like, doesn't the press suck?
It's like he wrote Cop Killer or something.
If you go on YouTube, this guy, Alec Bostwick, he's a reporter.
I caught a video of his where he's explaining it.
It's like cops.
The media's like cops.
And a PR person's your lawyer.
So you don't ever talk to the cops without a lawyer, you know?
Wow.
And we need journalists, we need cops, but the people that abuse it are corrupt, which is like a lot of them.
joe rogan
There's so many people doing it, right?
And there's different styles of doing it.
kurt metzger
Well, there's a certain amount of, like, serve and collect where, so now these people, they were talking about COVID-19, like, they didn't know how to handle this for their business of, like, we gotta condemn people.
It's almost like a fossil fuel they're almost out of.
unidentified
Right.
kurt metzger
Of digging your tweets.
unidentified
They're like, well, how far back do your tweets go?
kurt metzger
And it's like, there's ones they're saving, like, okay, we have these old blackface pics of Tom Hanks or something.
joe rogan
What about these Indian baseball teams?
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
The Braves, the Indians.
kurt metzger
Didn't somebody get mad at Adam Driver because of...
This one was crazy.
I didn't even know he was in the military, but he went and served in Iraq because after 9-11, he wanted to go fight against, you know, he said he had a vague, he goes, nothing against Muslims, but I had a feeling of, I want to go fight whoever attacked.
So, he's Islamophobic.
There's a whole Twitter.
Islamophobia thing, which is wild, dude.
That's how far disconnected Twitter is.
That section of Twitter that does that, that's how absolutely fucking break from reality.
joe rogan
Well, it's a new form of communication, and through this new form of communication, people have strengthened ideologies.
For good or for bad.
And I think that's just part of what that is.
That's part of what that is with the outrage Twitter, but it's also part of what that is with all the good stuff, like the scientific debate Twitter and people talking about different issues in the calm, collectible.
Can't throw out the baby with the bathwater.
There's a lot of good to what's going on with weird online social discourse, but you're definitely seeing people get enraged and inflamed more often.
kurt metzger
Well, by the way, when you brought up the cult thing in the beginning, that's what it is.
That's a certain kind of cult, and you can't talk anybody out of being in a cult.
Especially when I was a deep believer, you wouldn't have shown me any evidence or anything that would have made me turn from my cult.
When people leave, it's because when you need it to do what it's supposed to do, it didn't do that for you.
When you needed it.
So that's how people leave.
They don't leave because you tell them they're stupid or any of that.
So all these Sakjas types are the same way.
As it fails for them, you can see people now like, I'm not doing it.
Jamie Kilstein is one of the first, right?
joe rogan
He's the best example, in my opinion, because he's been really honest about how gross he felt when he was attacking people on Twitter.
I talked to him after, yeah.
kurt metzger
And he was like an ex-cult guy.
It was crazy.
joe rogan
Yeah, and then they went after him.
And he was like, oh shit, like...
No one's safe.
kurt metzger
Well, so it's the running out of fuel for these fucking things.
It's the fossil fuel?
Yeah, I mean, they're just going to dig through all of it.
It's like polluting.
unidentified
That's why they're going to like 83. 1983, you touch someone's vagina.
kurt metzger
Who was 1983?
joe rogan
1983, the 1980s one was actually the guy from Star Trek got in trouble.
Who?
kurt metzger
Picard?
joe rogan
No, no, no.
The guy who's always on Howard Stern's show.
unidentified
Sulu?
joe rogan
Yes.
George Takei.
kurt metzger
Wait, he grabbed a vagina, you said?
joe rogan
No, he grabbed someone's penis or something.
kurt metzger
Oh, okay.
joe rogan
In 1983 or something like that.
Like, legitimately.
Like, talking about in the 80s.
kurt metzger
I mean, it sounds about right.
joe rogan
Yeah.
He said it never happened.
But it's like if they run out of outrage, if people really run out of outrage and they go searching for it in old television shows.
There's a lot of movies that if you went searching for them, like outrage, you'd get really mad.
If you were looking, you watch...
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
Well, people are looking...
joe rogan
Ace Ventura, Pet Detective.
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah.
Who is mad about that?
Oh, part two?
joe rogan
Which is the one?
No.
kurt metzger
The one where he goes to Africa?
I just watched that recently.
joe rogan
It wasn't Ace Ventura.
What was the one where Sean...
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Was it Ace Ventura?
It was?
That was.
Right, where it turns out she was a guy.
unidentified
Finkel is Einhorn.
Einhorn is Finkel.
kurt metzger
Oh, no, that's part one, right?
joe rogan
That is, right.
That is part one.
All right.
Yeah.
There's so many old movies, man.
I watched Tommy Boy the other day.
There's so many movies that have scenes that you couldn't do now.
kurt metzger
Fucking 30 Rock is all things you couldn't do now.
Yeah, no shit.
joe rogan
What happened?
kurt metzger
You can't do them on the network.
This is part of the reason for the mad grab for outrage things is stuff like this or anything, YouTube or all that shit, is eating up their lunch.
And so they went all in selling to the fucking whatever the idea of a millennial on Twitter was.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
That's what people were pandering to.
And they called it on South Park, dude.
Remember the episode of, what's his name, PC Principle, where they introduced PC Principle?
So there's a scene when there's two farmers like, well, PC's back.
How long do you think it's going to be this time?
He goes, six years.
And I'll be goddamned, it was back in 2015, and now this shit's petering out.
It's about six years.
joe rogan
Yeah, people get mad, and then it's like a jackrabbit thing.
There's populations of jackrabbits that go up and down every seven years.
kurt metzger
It's very Ebola-esque.
It is.
Oh, that's right.
joe rogan
I think ideas can very well be like diseases.
And that, you know, they come and go.
And, like, big ones stick, you know?
Whether it's a religion or...
kurt metzger
The ones that have...
Like, this is what I think is going to be in Ebola, ultimately, the...
The social justice thing is to burn itself out too much.
joe rogan
Well, too many people inside of it got attacked and felt what it was like to be misrepresented.
kurt metzger
Yeah, and there's no fallback.
joe rogan
It's also not nice.
You're supposed to be the good person, right?
If you're a social justice warrior, one of the first things they think is that they're doing a good thing.
And that they have an intelligent philosophy, right?
It's not an idiot's way of looking at the world.
It's an intelligent way of looking at the world.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
It's the only way.
It's called the truth.
Right.
Because they get ideologically driven.
But I don't think they realize that a big part, if you act that way and you're attacking people, I think you realize a big part of being a person is learning how to be nice to each other.
And if you just go out of your way to attack people, you don't ever get those people to change their mind.
What you do is you get those people mad at you.
You get those people sad.
They feel upset.
kurt metzger
Well, that sounds like human interaction things, and these are internet people.
joe rogan
But you can't get them to listen to your opinion and take it seriously if you're disrespectful.
That's just a tenet of human beings.
Right.
kurt metzger
Yeah, absolutely.
joe rogan
They're socially fucked up people that are engaging in these online wars.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
And they're doing it for these little adrenaline bursts and these little dopamine hits.
kurt metzger
I mean, that is why I do anything.
joe rogan
But they're addicted.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
No, it's a weak ass.
But that's how you get like that is not having to look at someone and say anything, you know?
So it's just going to burn out because there's no, you know, like Christianity is a very, that's a corona that's going to be around.
joe rogan
It's been around a long time.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
They got that game locked up.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
They got their own country.
kurt metzger
Coronavirus, you can get again.
If I wanted to become a Jehovah's Witness again, and I was like, you know what, I repent for whatever I did that took me out of this, then you can go in.
So I could become that again.
Do you know what I mean?
Jamie Kilstein can never be a social justice warrior.
joe rogan
You wouldn't let him back in.
Well, I saw people attacking him and misrepresenting him when he left.
I was like...
kurt metzger
People told me he raped someone.
That's the shit that I had.
joe rogan
No one ever accused him of that.
And then even when he did leave, it's not like he attacked them.
kurt metzger
What he was accused of is so crazy.
It's just that Jamie went all in, bashing other people.
joe rogan
My feeling is- He was accused of flirting with girls or something like that.
kurt metzger
It's so much worse.
I mean, it's such a long story, but it's so crazy what the actual story is.
It's just that he went after people.
And so when you do that, people turn on you like, well, fuck you.
But you can't be like that.
If somebody comes out of a thing, you've got to be cool.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's how you would like people to be in real life, right?
In real life, I would like everybody to be real reasonable when they talk to each other and hang out with each other.
But on Twitter, for some reason, people that think they're reasonable people will say some shit that you would never say to someone in real life, because if you did, you'd be such a fucking asshole.
If you were just looking face to face and you said some of the things that some people would just write to random people on Twitter, you would be a fucking asshole.
But for some reason, it's like this escape clause where you can write it down.
kurt metzger
You would think the cruelty would create a callousness to it.
You know what I mean?
But it's like people say they're crazy as shit, but then be hypersensitive to anything said.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
Their direction.
joe rogan
Right, right.
That's a good point.
kurt metzger
It's like we're like both punch each other and that's what we do.
It's not like that big a deal.
But they get more raw.
It's really like an unsatisfying cult to be in.
joe rogan
It's missing a thing.
And the big thing, if you want to be right, is you've got to be nice.
It's not a nice one.
It's not a reasonable one.
It's an attacking one.
And attacking at a lot of things that are very debatable.
And they just want you to state it as fact.
kurt metzger
I think that's it.
There's no debate on this.
joe rogan
Yeah, there's a lot of things that are very debatable.
When it comes to any controversial issue, they're controversial for a reason.
A lot of them, there's debate.
There's debate that could be had.
kurt metzger
Not if you can shut it right down.
Yeah.
That's what...
That's the...
Basically, let's say you were like, hey, something about this seems off and I have an issue with it.
You wouldn't raise your hand and say that in the...
Because in the Bible, you don't want to stumble your brother.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
Like, what if your doubt or whatever you had...
Like, keep it to yourself.
You know, there's a time to discuss it.
I don't know when, but...
The worst thing could happen is you hurt someone else's faith by you saying the thing.
That's obvious.
That's in front of your face.
So that lets in all kinds of horrible...
What if you hear about like molestations or, you know, children's witness is actually the largest settlement in history.
joe rogan
Really?
kurt metzger
For that.
Yeah.
And it's not because someone in a position of authority did it.
It's because they did what all these places do and didn't go to the cops.
They're like, we're going to handle it.
And that's, by the way, a bunch of church things.
Like, if this kind of kid diddling happens, and when it happens, it's really a morality issue of probably the kid.
Like, we have to see if they need to be married now.
That's the kind of...
Well, it's just old-ass Bronze Age, you know.
joe rogan
How crazy is the Catholic Church?
Is there another country that is like the Vatican?
The Vatican's like a country that's inside of Italy, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Isn't it essentially like a...
kurt metzger
No, it's a sovereign nation.
joe rogan
And is the idea that so that no one can get kicked out?
Like they can't get extradited to the rest of the free world for crimes?
kurt metzger
You know, I don't know.
I think it's like medieval...
joe rogan
It has to have something like that.
kurt metzger
I think it goes back a long time.
joe rogan
But how weird is that?
I mean, how weird is that?
Like, if you've got a kid fucking priest and they're holed up in a church over there, you're supposed to leave them there.
kurt metzger
I mean, it's probably the best place for them, right?
It's not a heavy kid population.
It's just a bunch of other...
All religions, by the way, have roughly as much as the Catholic Church.
joe rogan
Pedophiles?
kurt metzger
Yes.
unidentified
Really?
kurt metzger
All of them.
Some more so.
It's just, you know, they actually kind of handled it more, and they didn't do a great job.
joe rogan
No.
kurt metzger
But their reckoning came that it hasn't really come for a bunch of others on such a large...
joe rogan
But you don't hear about that with, like, Baptists or Lutherans?
kurt metzger
Of course you do.
joe rogan
Really?
kurt metzger
You should talk to...
My friend Brooke was in Quiverful.
What's a quiver full?
Remember the show, 19 and Counting?
joe rogan
No, I don't.
kurt metzger
With the Duggar family?
joe rogan
Oh, that's right, yeah.
kurt metzger
And it's like your quiver is supposed to be full.
Your quiver.
Yeah, you're just supposed to always be having kids.
joe rogan
There's a good analogy there, because if you're one of those assholes that has a 20-arrow quiver, that's a lot of weight to carry around.
kurt metzger
I could fit 20 arrows in my wife's pussy now.
joe rogan
Well, it's like there's a quiver analogy, believe it or not, for archery and particularly for bow hunting.
kurt metzger
Yeah, that probably goes back a long way.
joe rogan
You don't want to take too many arrows.
Like one of the best bow hunters I know, my friend John Dudley, he only takes four arrows.
That's it.
He only has four because it weighs your bow down.
He doesn't want a bunch of weight over here on the side of his bow.
kurt metzger
So the analogy is to not have too many kids.
Yeah, if you have 19. Theirs is like, have 19 arrows.
joe rogan
I know, but it's a bad analogy.
But the idea, like, oh, I'm going to have 100 arrows.
Okay.
But you've got to carry those around, stupid.
kurt metzger
Do you know who founded it?
And by the way, it's not its own religion.
It's a thing that if you're just like, you could be a Methodist and you're in that movement.
Do you know what I mean?
I think.
The founders are some dude who's still there and this chick who, a former feminist.
unidentified
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Who changed to this, like she went the other extreme.
joe rogan
That happens too sometimes.
People flip flop the other way.
kurt metzger
If you thought you didn't like the hyper left kids, wait until they become Republicans how much you're not going to like them.
joe rogan
Oh, their kids are going to become Republicans for sure.
There's a lot of them are going to flip.
A lot of them are going to get older.
We were talking yesterday on the podcast, I did with Owen Smith, we were talking about farmers, how most farmers, a lot of them are Christian, and a lot of them are right wing.
kurt metzger
Why is that?
joe rogan
A lot of them are right wing.
I was saying because they're no nonsense people.
Because they get up at 6 o'clock in the fucking morning every day, and they feed the chickens and milk the cows, and they have to do it every goddamn day.
They don't want to hear your bullshit.
They have no time for lazy people.
They think everybody's trying to make a fast buck.
And they're out there hustling every day.
kurt metzger
Yeah, no, no.
If you've never been around it, people who've never been around it have the most TV, like dipshit Hollywood idea of what- Of a farmer.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Hard work.
joe rogan
Really fucking hard work.
kurt metzger
Yeah, real strong.
joe rogan
Remember- Those are different kind of people.
kurt metzger
You know Harris Stanton?
Did you know him?
He's a comic?
He was in an accident with Tracy.
Remember that?
When Tracy's tour bus got hit?
joe rogan
He was one of them?
kurt metzger
Yeah, he's a lot.
I mean, he's not dead.
Oh, you're freaking out.
Harris, he's from South Carolina.
He used to be a...
He was going to play baseball or something and then hurt his fucking leg and became a comic.
But he fucking...
One of the strongest fucking people ever...
Because he used to do tobacco bales.
joe rogan
Oh, Jesus Christ.
kurt metzger
It was like southern tobacco farming.
So...
It's like, what are they, country strong?
It's crazy how strong they are.
joe rogan
Do you know how crazy that is?
That's actually a workout for CrossFit?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
A kettlebell workout.
It's called the farmer's walk, or farmer's carry.
kurt metzger
Did you see that?
joe rogan
You take a heavy kettlebell on each hand and you walk with it, so you do work.
kurt metzger
Why don't you just get a job?
Wow, that is really...
I would just farm at that point.
joe rogan
Well, farmer strength is a real strength.
Like wrestlers always talk about farmer strength.
It's like an expression.
kurt metzger
I mean, it sounds so close to retard strength, but...
joe rogan
But I get it.
But the idea is you're picking up bales of hay all day.
Like, they're doing things all day.
And instead of working out, which is like you burn yourself out in an hour.
kurt metzger
No, that's the most tremendous...
They're just working.
My friend's dad drove a truck, you know, a tractor trailer.
And he had, like, Popeye forms.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
kurt metzger
Because the shifter on his thing.
joe rogan
Oh, I'm sure.
kurt metzger
It was fearsomely...
It was upsetting how strong his dad was.
And I just remember, like, everybody's dad had a job like that.
joe rogan
Well, think about some jobs like lumberjack.
Like a lumberjack, you immediately think of a giant man.
kurt metzger
I think of a paper towel giant.
joe rogan
Yes.
For that job, he was a lumberjack, right?
The paper towel guy, was he a giant?
kurt metzger
The brawny guy's not a giant.
jamie vernon
Paul Bunyan is not the brawny guy.
joe rogan
Is the brawny guy a ripoff of the Paul Bunyan character?
unidentified
Paul Bunyan's like the fairy tale or whatever.
joe rogan
But are we imagining the brawny guy incorrectly?
I have a feeling he's just a regular sized guy.
I think he's just a handsome...
kurt metzger
He's the kind of guy men and women want to fuck.
joe rogan
That's right.
He's like a Marlboro Man type character.
He would be the guy that starts the orgy in the LSD camp.
Yeah, it's a regular dude.
kurt metzger
Now he looks like Teddy from...
joe rogan
It's just a perspective thing.
Yeah, see?
That's what I'm saying.
kurt metzger
Yeah, there we go.
I don't remember this guy.
joe rogan
The other guy with the mustache.
The guy with the mustache on the left-hand side?
Yeah, he's just a regular-sized guy with some trees behind him.
kurt metzger
The guy in the top two, is that the same guy or is that different mustache guys?
joe rogan
The new guy is...
kurt metzger
He died of HIV, sadly.
That's why we have this new...
joe rogan
I don't understand why they got rid of the old brawny guy and made a totally different guy a brawny guy.
This brawny guy looks like he lives in Long Island.
kurt metzger
Yeah, he looks like Adam Carolla.
joe rogan
He owns a travel company.
He's got one of them second market ticket sales companies.
unidentified
Strength has no gender.
joe rogan
What is that?
Is that a brawny commercial?
Please don't say that's real.
Strength has no gender.
That's true.
I guess...
kurt metzger
Why are they in the...
Wow, it looks really like a lesbian book club of some kind.
joe rogan
There are definitely women that are stronger than some men.
So I get it, but...
kurt metzger
First of all, I don't know why a paper towel would tell me anything.
joe rogan
Well, not only that, why is it assuming that I don't think that women are strong?
It's assuming it.
kurt metzger
Well, it's not at you.
joe rogan
It says strength has no gender.
Okay, listen to this.
kurt metzger
It's at women.
It's at women.
joe rogan
Okay, but listen, what if it was us?
What if it was a bunch of meathead-looking men standing there and said strength has no gender?
kurt metzger
People would be like, hey, fuck you!
Right.
joe rogan
Fuck you.
We know you're strong.
Stop.
Stop.
Women are strong, too.
Like, okay, I didn't say you weren't.
I just said strength has no gender, and here's me and my friend.
kurt metzger
Somebody in marketing, that's like whoever does the marketing, they're like, who are the Don Drapers that go?
What do women want?
joe rogan
They're white.
kurt metzger
They're angry.
They don't think they're strong.
Like, that's the purely the...
It's like the dumb dad on the sitcom thing.
That's just like a thing that's been going on for...
I don't know, forever that image, that insulting fucking...
joe rogan
Yeah, they're teaching you about life while they're selling you paper towels.
kurt metzger
Because every woman is an engineer.
joe rogan
Go back to that picture.
I would feel so sold out if I was a guy, and I was really into brawny, because I kind of look like the brawny guy, and then I go to buy my brawny towels, and there's three chicks!
They stole their position!
kurt metzger
If you felt like the brawny guy...
joe rogan
But literally, it's like pregnant men.
Okay, the brawny guy is a goddamn lumberjack.
I would assume most lumberjacks are probably big, strong men.
kurt metzger
You don't think he became a gay kind of icon?
I mean, I understand what you're saying.
joe rogan
But the idea that they have three female lumberjacks.
Three!
kurt metzger
Well, you gotta do the job of one man.
joe rogan
That was a lob.
A lob for the Grand Slam.
kurt metzger
He has to jack the lumber of one full man.
This is going to take three of these strong ladies.
joe rogan
It's just, what are the percentages of women that are lumberjacks and what's the likelihood of three of them being on a team?
kurt metzger
In that picture, he looks like a guy who's about to take a shit a lot.
joe rogan
And by the way, this is an ignorant question.
I'm aware.
If you're a female lumberjack and you're mad at me right now, I'm sorry.
I don't know anybody that's a female lumberjack.
I'm just asking questions.
I mean, they're wearing lumberjack clothes.
That's what a lumberjack wears.
Are you posing?
kurt metzger
Is this stolen valor?
joe rogan
Is this stolen valor?
Are you pretending you're out there carrying trees?
kurt metzger
You wearing a lumberjack shirt is stolen valor.
joe rogan
It's stolen valor.
These aren't lumberjacks.
These are models.
These are hot chicks.
With nice nails.
They're not out there carrying trees and shit.
kurt metzger
You know, they could, by the way, I'll tell you what, the women that do do that job, I promise they're not going to put on the paper towels.
They're going to look like you!
Just fucking put a wig on the guy.
joe rogan
Look at that one lady with her sleeves rolled up.
Are you about to go to work?
Look at her.
Go to that picture.
Click on that.
She's got this really thin body, these really thin arms, and she's got her sleeves rolled up with her flannel shirt on in front of a bunch of trees.
Are you about to chop trees down, ma'am?
Because you weigh 90 pounds, you better get the fuck out of the way of those trees.
kurt metzger
I think the idea is to make you feel like a lumberjack while you're wiping your counter down, is what they're trying to convey.
joe rogan
I think we need to be more respectful about what the fuck it means to be a lumberjack.
You would think that that would be romantic until you did that job eight hours a day, five days a week, and your fucking body's broken down because you're carrying logs on your shoulder and shit, and you're chopping at trees.
kurt metzger
Oh my god.
Was your father a lumberjack?
joe rogan
No!
This is what I feel.
You can't pretend you're a goddamn lumberjack.
You can't take a hot model and cover her face with a little bit of coal powder and pretend she's a coal miner in West Virginia getting black lung.
You can't.
Because she's not.
kurt metzger
That sounds like a great point.
joe rogan
Unless I believe you, you're not a lumberjack lady!
And that guy, okay, brawny, what if that was for Similac, and he was breastfeeding?
kurt metzger
Dude, that would be fucking hilarious.
joe rogan
Just as likely as that lady being a lumberjack.
Just as likely that the brawny guy is breastfeeding.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I think?
joe rogan
Yes.
Just as likely.
Lumberjack is a brutal, physical...
If a woman's doing it, that woman's going to be jacked.
She's going to be strong as fuck.
kurt metzger
What's the one that...
unidentified
Jean shirt.
I just left it with that.
kurt metzger
What's the one that kicked off the whole...
Oh, the Gillette one.
The one that kicked off the whole fuck men advertising strategy.
joe rogan
What was that one?
kurt metzger
You know, the fucking Gillette.
It was a while ago.
joe rogan
Did I miss it?
Did I miss some outrage?
unidentified
Yeah, we talked about it.
kurt metzger
You must have talked about it.
joe rogan
Which one was it?
kurt metzger
It was about...
unidentified
Is this the best a man can get?
kurt metzger
And then they would...
And it was like, the Me Too movement.
Time's up.
The guy's looking in the mirror at himself, and then it cuts...
Oh, now I remember it.
joe rogan
Now I remember it.
Yeah.
It was preposterous.
kurt metzger
I am pretty high, so...
joe rogan
No, no, no.
I remember it now.
I blocked it out like a childhood molestation.
kurt metzger
Well, then there was like a fake debate.
All these people are like, I'm never buying Gillette.
You know, people are tweeting, they're throwing out their fucking Gillette razors.
And somebody told me, it's brilliant because it's to the women who are buying the razors.
But here's the thing.
The women that are buying, they're not into that either.
A woman that's buying razors for a man is also not into the fucking Gillette ad.
So whoever is in charge of the marketing, it's their entire like...
joe rogan
What do you think that is?
Do you think that's like someone who decides they're going to cash in on a movement and they just say maybe there's an opportunity here to make some money?
kurt metzger
Oh, dude.
Okay, I totally forgot.
Do you remember?
Look at this.
Men with their fucking sitcoms.
Now, did you see what they just showed?
joe rogan
The guy put his hand on her shoulder.
kurt metzger
It was a fucking sitcom where a white guy grabs his black maid's ass and it's all men in the audience going, ha ha ha, what fucking show was that?
The guy would just fucking grab his maid's ass and everyone's like, yay!
joe rogan
Is there a show like that?
Maybe Married with Children?
No.
kurt metzger
Look at that.
joe rogan
Even then.
Let me see it again.
That's so fake.
That's such a bizarre dynamic.
You're right.
You're dead right because it's a recreation of something that didn't really happen.
kurt metzger
What is that supposed to be an example of?
That's not even like a mashup of anything I've ever seen.
joe rogan
But it's like they made a fake TV show?
kurt metzger
Yeah, it's like, here's an example of the type of shows you like.
No one was watching that.
joe rogan
But that's not even a show, right?
kurt metzger
That's why it's so weird.
joe rogan
So it's like a straw man show.
kurt metzger
The whole thing is a fucking straw man.
joe rogan
Right, but I mean, that's a weird way of doing it.
Is that what they were depicting?
Were they depicting a fake sitcom?
kurt metzger
Yeah, fake sitcom.
joe rogan
It seemed like it, right?
I mean, it seemed like it was...
How weird is it that they don't have a real example?
jamie vernon
How weird is that?
unidentified
Yeah, how weird is that?
kurt metzger
Not even a puppet did shit like that on one of the puppet sitcoms from the 90s.
joe rogan
And that's weird too.
That guy put his hand on that girl's shoulder and she had this weird look on her face like, oh my god.
kurt metzger
I know, that's the craziest...
joe rogan
Like if a woman put her hand...
kurt metzger
I thought it was a Joe Biden campaign.
joe rogan
If you were working with a woman and she put her hand on your shoulder like that, it would be nothing.
unidentified
Right?
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well, it's not a good example to put in your ad.
Look, in a real situation, like, hey, I felt this weird thing.
I'm sure there could be a situation that someone puts their hand on your shoulder and it's weird, right?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
kurt metzger
Not automatically.
joe rogan
Or that they insulted you and then they put their hand on your shoulder.
kurt metzger
Why are you putting this...
The whole point that I can't get past is why the fuck is...
Why are you talking about this?
joe rogan
Why aren't you telling me how great your razors are, you fucks?
kurt metzger
You should be begging me to buy your fucking razors, you fucking moron.
joe rogan
What are you doing?
kurt metzger
Are you teaching people?
No, because then you talk about it on a podcast, right?
And then they're like, see, you've got engagement.
That doesn't mean people are going to buy this shit.
joe rogan
I'm not going to not buy it.
I just think some marketing person fucked up.
I don't think it's representative of the whole company.
It's some marketing person.
They decided they were going to hitch a ride onto the back of this movement.
kurt metzger
A bunch of things did.
joe rogan
Yeah, for sure.
kurt metzger
A ton of things.
joe rogan
Isn't that weird when they do that?
It's like, what?
You think I'm so stupid, I'm not going to know what you're doing that you're...
kurt metzger
Because statistically you are that student.
They have some kind of research where they're like, yes, you are statistically.
It's like the letter from Nigeria to...
joe rogan
Well, it's like they're trying to be creative, right?
So they're like creative people that are making up these scenarios.
Like the commercials are like a little scenario.
Here's where they have a guy.
His bush is too hairy.
And he's posing for the picture.
They're going to send it to space.
But they want him to shave his sack and balls.
That's the guy...
I want to show...
This is what I want to show.
I want to show the guy going, well, we want to use you, but...
And the guy's like, fuck.
And then you see him in the bathroom holding his ball.
Did you see Joey Diaz's balls were on Twitch?
kurt metzger
No.
joe rogan
The comedy store got in trouble and there's like a real violation.
What is it?
FTC or FD? What is it?
FTA might have violated him.
They do it at Comedy Store, a live fucking quarantine podcast.
kurt metzger
How did he get to his balls?
joe rogan
Because he pulls them out.
He's bored.
So Joey Diaz just pulls his balls out and he's holding on to them like he's got two kitten heads in an old lady's pantyhose.
I mean, they're the biggest balls you've ever seen in your life.
kurt metzger
Isn't that a violation of Twitch to fully have your balls?
joe rogan
Yeah, they got kicked off of Twitch.
It wasn't good.
But you've got to see the video.
The video's hilarious.
Can you find the video?
I have it on my phone.
I saved it.
Here's how good it was.
It was so good, I screen recorded it, because I'm like, this is going to go away.
They're going to pull this down, because people are communists, and they don't want to see something amazing.
So watch this.
So, look, that's a screenshot of someone filming it.
kurt metzger
Dude, I thought he had fake balls as a joke.
joe rogan
Those are real.
I've seen them for years.
The first time I saw him was in 96. Yeah.
unidentified
He's got a lot of ball skin, dude.
joe rogan
His balls are softballs.
They're softballs stuffed in a flesh-covered pantyhose.
kurt metzger
Oh, my God.
Bert's got his shirt off.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's chaos.
It's chaos.
Yeah, I'll donate money.
kurt metzger
Yeah, God damn.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Because I'm just thinking of the amount of distance of scrotum you need to flop them out that amount.
joe rogan
Those balls are preposterous.
kurt metzger
He's obligated to take him out so you understand about...
joe rogan
So you get what he's saying.
He's not playing any games.
This is his real balls.
There it is.
This is a screen grab.
That's probably...
He'd go to jail for that or something.
Everybody got assaulted.
kurt metzger
Well, I might have not said that until I saw the size of those balls.
joe rogan
Bert's in a trap.
Bert's trapped.
kurt metzger
Never put his shirt back in?
joe rogan
Yeah, he's trapped in and I always have to take my shirt off thing.
kurt metzger
Same thing happened at Dignitaro.
joe rogan
How many ladies...
Oh, that's even darker.
I forgot about Tig's...
Anyway.
Terrible person.
I know, I got so high.
unidentified
Imagine...
joe rogan
Why can't women do that?
Is there a topless female comic?
kurt metzger
Because you don't...
When Bird's taking a shirt off, it's not sexual, except if you're into bears.
joe rogan
Right, but is there a woman that could do that same kind of thing?
kurt metzger
She has to be not attractive.
joe rogan
Hmm, but that's the whole Burt thing to be a guy you don't want to be that hot.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well Burt's because his body's large I feel like it was braver of him to have his shirt off than anyone ever taking their shirt off.
joe rogan
No because it's part of the fun It's braver I'm saying is it brave because you don't have to applaud him for that You just want to but it accentuates the comedy Whereas a girl's big tits don't really accentuate the comedy like Burt's big belly accentuates the comedy I mean, it's like you're hanging out at a pool with Bert laughing.
kurt metzger
That's what the effect is he creates.
joe rogan
And a girl just pulls her tits out.
It's just weird.
kurt metzger
If you're that kind of a fag guy, I mean, yeah.
I guess there better be like a baby on the end of it, I guess.
joe rogan
Well, women could do it.
We would just have to be accustomed to it.
The problem is, like, if a woman just pulls her tits out and starts telling jokes, we're not used to that.
kurt metzger
If it was always like that, it would be just like you see on those old documentaries of, like, you know, somewhere in Africa, they don't have bras, and it's not a thing.
It would just be just like that.
joe rogan
Exactly.
Which is how human beings, all of us, used to be.
The whole planet, before anybody figured out how to put clothes on.
kurt metzger
Look, if Joey Diaz's balls were out all the time, we all could...
joe rogan
Well, it sort of goes back to what we're saying about the couple that they drew on that little plaque that they shot off into space.
kurt metzger
Boy, when the aliens find out about Joey Diaz's balls, they're gonna fucking...
Oh my god.
joe rogan
His dick and his balls.
kurt metzger
That should have been sent to space.
That really should be sent to space to represent us.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
Did he show his hog?
jamie vernon
No, it wasn't Joey.
joe rogan
Who else?
jamie vernon
Earlier in the stream.
joe rogan
Earlier?
Yeah.
What happened?
kurt metzger
Wait, there was a different guy's ball?
joe rogan
Is that Bobby Lee?
Bobby Lee showed his ass.
Outrageous.
kurt metzger
Oh, so there's like a context for it.
joe rogan
He showed his whole asshole?
unidentified
I mean, kind of.
kurt metzger
You know, Bobby Lee's another get-naked guy.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He'll get naked.
I've seen Ari Shafir's balls and dick multiple times as well.
He'll pull everything out.
kurt metzger
No, yeah.
joe rogan
Didn't Ari do something for Skankfest where he was on stage naked?
kurt metzger
You know, Ari's trying to become a shirt-off guy.
joe rogan
He could.
kurt metzger
He's always...
Well, he'll do it if he wants to, whether he can or not.
joe rogan
He does shirt-off walks, takes pictures of himself.
kurt metzger
All the time.
joe rogan
Suns out, guns out, New York City.
kurt metzger
Yeah, he walks around here with like...
joe rogan
I've never seen a guy take to New York better than Ari Shaffir.
Like a duck to water.
Just right in his little pond.
He's like, ah, found my spot.
unidentified
Shit.
kurt metzger
His many trips across Asia probably helped him prepare.
joe rogan
He loves New York.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I'm sick of it, too.
I mean, I liked it for a long time, but I got very...
joe rogan
It's a different way of living, man.
kurt metzger
I can't just have...
I don't want another winter that goes to April that I have to...
I can't do it.
joe rogan
I wonder how much of that has an impact, like, who gets the most colds and flus?
Is it people that live in the cold in the East Coast, or are they more accustomed to it so they get less of them, or is it people on the West Coast?
kurt metzger
It's how tightly packed in you are to other people that are going to have, you know...
joe rogan
Right, that's probably why New York hits so hard.
kurt metzger
It probably helps your immune system at a certain point, being in New York, because you're just bombarded with fucking...
joe rogan
That makes sense, that it would help your immune system, except for something you don't have an immunity to, like this coronavirus, which is why it was so bad in New York, right?
Because your immune system is probably accustomed to all those other things.
kurt metzger
I believe you, I just have no...
I don't even know enough to know if that's...
Or it's when you take your balls out.
unidentified
I don't fucking know.
joe rogan
I want to know at the end of the day what happened.
Everybody wants to draw a conclusion long before.
kurt metzger
It would be awesome if they tested Joey Diaz's balls for Corona when they were testing.
joe rogan
He's patient zero.
kurt metzger
You've got to squeeze him out like that so there's a drop of blood.
Oh, fuck.
So, how long from Bobby taking his ass out?
joe rogan
That's a good question.
Which is more offensive, Bobby's asshole or Joey Diaz's balls?
It's hard.
I don't know if there's a...
Tough call.
Both equally are.
Well, one is way more impressive.
Bobby Lee's asshole is a regular-sized asshole.
unidentified
Bobby Lee, same as...
joe rogan
Joey Diaz's balls are a thing of nature.
Like, wow.
You know, it's like when you see a bird, like a toucan that has a crazy beak.
Like, look at his fucking beak.
Holy shit.
kurt metzger
It is exactly like that.
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
kurt metzger
Like an exotic bird.
joe rogan
Yeah, you see other birds, they have normal beaks.
Like, even an eagle, it's a normal beak.
Right?
But then you see like a fucking snake.
kurt metzger
If it talked, it would be like, oh, he's one of those set of balls that talks.
joe rogan
Yeah, like a shoebill.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Like one of them big shoebills from Africa?
Have you ever seen one of those motherfuckers?
kurt metzger
They call me the shoebill because I got huge balls.
joe rogan
My favorite ridiculous bird.
Oh, toucan's got a crazy one.
He's got a super bright one.
Tell me that doesn't get him some pussy.
unidentified
It has to.
kurt metzger
I don't know.
joe rogan
Look at that picture.
kurt metzger
That's beautiful.
joe rogan
Goddamn, that's pretty.
I mean, come on.
How psychedelic is that bird?
kurt metzger
Shit, I want to fuck that bird.
joe rogan
That bird is beautiful.
kurt metzger
It really does look fruit flavored.
I thought the cereal was making that up.
joe rogan
Okay, if that wasn't real, if that wasn't a real thing, and someone drew that, we go, what is this, the new fucking Avatar monster?
What is that?
kurt metzger
It does look like an Avatar monster.
joe rogan
It looks freakier than an Avatar monster.
Look how long that fucking beak is.
kurt metzger
Do you think dinosaurs are like, that's probably all the dinosaurs with that kind of crazy punch?
joe rogan
100%.
I'm, by the way, 100% not capable of saying 100%.
I don't know what I'm talking about, but I think it's been confirmed that birds are like leftover dinosaurs, right?
kurt metzger
What are those?
joe rogan
Look at that thing!
kurt metzger
You know, they're like big doodos that are now terror birds?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We've talked about them a ton of times.
Too much, almost.
kurt metzger
Can you imagine getting killed by something that's stupid looking?
joe rogan
They're like nine feet tall, dude.
The shoe bill is the one I was talking about earlier.
Look at that motherfucker.
That's alive today.
kurt metzger
It's a kind of duck.
unidentified
It's huge!
joe rogan
It's like five feet tall, and they're so evil-eyed.
kurt metzger
I feel like Joey's balls look friendlier than that bird.
unidentified
Look at that.
joe rogan
Imagine that thing, standing up, like, looking at you in the eye, moving towards you, thinking about eating you.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I don't like the...
Around the eyes, I see.
He looks like Ray Liotta.
I don't like it.
joe rogan
Like the Ray Liotta that was here in the helicopters overhead.
kurt metzger
Look at that eyes in that motherfucker.
Karen!
joe rogan
Karen, I needed that!
Karen, why?
Look at the fucking eyeball.
Look at the eyeball in that thing.
That thing doesn't give a fuck if you live or die.
kurt metzger
That is like the sequel poster face.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
Now imagine that, but imagine it nine feet tall and that was those terror birds.
Get a picture.
kurt metzger
Oh, wait, that's a bird that's alive now?
joe rogan
That's a bird that's alive right now!
kurt metzger
Oh, I thought it was like a CG... No!
joe rogan
Dude, that...
kurt metzger
I thought that was from one of those on Discovery where they make the fake...
joe rogan
Oh, right, right, right.
Like they reenact...
kurt metzger
They did it with mermaids for some reason.
joe rogan
No, this is a real bird.
It's a real bird that lives...
kurt metzger
Oh my god, that's real?
joe rogan
Yeah, it lives in the Congo.
It lives in Africa.
kurt metzger
His face really does...
joe rogan
They're fucking big, man.
kurt metzger
It really does look like a Reebok, his fucking head.
joe rogan
It's a monster.
There's a crazy video of one of them eating a snakehead fish.
kurt metzger
Oh, really?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, they're super carnivorous.
kurt metzger
We're snakeheads the ones who are like, who will take all these snakeheads off our hands because there's so many fucking snakeheads?
joe rogan
Well, they're an invasive species over here.
kurt metzger
So now we've got to bring in these shoebells.
joe rogan
Look at that fucking thing.
That's the fish.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
And this thing snatches it up and gobbles it.
kurt metzger
Oh.
joe rogan
And that thing breathes air.
And this motherfucker comes in and gets it.
kurt metzger
Dude, that's a crazy dinosaur-looking face on that shoehead.
What's it called?
A shoehead?
joe rogan
Shoebill.
Look at him eating that.
That's great.
I mean, that is a fucking dinosaur.
That really looks like a fucking dinosaur.
Chewbills are metal is the name of the video, which is hilarious.
Because they are definitely metal.
kurt metzger
I would think that was like an evil duck.
joe rogan
Yeah, you would think that's a fake thing.
It's a five foot tall bird.
kurt metzger
Where do they live?
joe rogan
Those are in Africa.
kurt metzger
Where?
joe rogan
Oh, well the documentary that I saw was they were talking about the Congo.
kurt metzger
Look at his fucking shoulders and shit.
joe rogan
I don't know what part of Africa they live in.
kurt metzger
Oh, in the Congo.
Goddamn, that's crazy.
joe rogan
Yeah, crazy.
Now imagine those fucking terror birds, man.
kurt metzger
Dude, the eyes, it looks like a puppet they make, a realistic puppet for one of those discovery, walking with dinosaurs.
unidentified
Yes.
kurt metzger
Look, that looks like a goddamn animatronic.
joe rogan
It's so fake looking!
kurt metzger
They should never do CG because puppets look more real.
joe rogan
I know.
Well, they have a real hard time with feathers and they have a real hard time with fur.
It's hard to get fur to look completely realistically.
I saw that new movie with Harrison Ford and the dog.
unidentified
Is that a fake dog?
joe rogan
It's a fake dog.
kurt metzger
It's so weird.
joe rogan
It's weird.
It's weird because it doesn't get past the uncanny valley.
kurt metzger
I would never get past...
It's him looking and you're like, I know you're not looking at a dog, dude.
joe rogan
Call of the Wild, right?
Isn't that what it is?
Yeah.
It's all fake dogs, fake wolves.
There's a lot of fake everything.
kurt metzger
Do you have a dog in real life that you could kind of fake it with?
joe rogan
No, man.
You gotta get these dogs to do very specific shit.
It's weird.
It's real close.
Real close, but not.
kurt metzger
That was trying to put a little flourish in there, too.
joe rogan
You love this dog, though, man.
kurt metzger
Okay, remember?
joe rogan
That's awful.
kurt metzger
That looks like The Hobbit, dude.
joe rogan
And the dog!
kurt metzger
Awful.
joe rogan
It's like, look right there.
There he is.
So it's always a little off.
kurt metzger
Who's the person there?
They got like a dwarf to be the...
joe rogan
I mean, they didn't do shit, man.
This is all...
I mean, he's just staring at the ground, I guess.
kurt metzger
Why would you animate...
Like a dog's a Bigfoot or something that we have to simulate.
joe rogan
Well, because they've got to get the dog to do very specific things.
kurt metzger
By the way, Harrison Ford did look a little bit CG'd.
joe rogan
He probably was.
This is like a low-key flex.
The dog's going to save her.
kurt metzger
They should have made it all animated if they were going to do that.
joe rogan
Yeah, right, right, the people too, right?
Then it would be kind of cool.
You're right, you're right.
kurt metzger
Yeah, then it'd be like the Polar Express or something.
joe rogan
Yes, which is so creepy.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Like in the future, that is going to be a horror movie.
kurt metzger
This is almost like Roger Rabbit if it wasn't funny.
The man acting with the animated animal.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
The Call of the Wild.
kurt metzger
Oh, so this is called The Call?
joe rogan
Fuck you.
I've never read the book, The Call of the Wild.
kurt metzger
I did when I was a kid.
joe rogan
But this is very different than the book.
They took a lot of liberties, and there's a lot of things they changed.
Is it Disney?
I don't know who fucking made it, but it was really good.
20th century.
kurt metzger
So, yes.
joe rogan
It was actually really good.
kurt metzger
It was a good movie?
joe rogan
Yeah, it's a good movie.
kurt metzger
Oh.
joe rogan
But in terms of like a family movie.
kurt metzger
Oh, right.
joe rogan
See, I watch movies with my kids.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
So there's a lot of movies that I watch that probably wouldn't...
unidentified
I know.
kurt metzger
I'll never see that because I don't have kids.
joe rogan
We've taken some chances on some movies that were, you know...
kurt metzger
What turned out to be a mistake?
joe rogan
Well, not that it was bad, but that watching it with a nine-year-old, Jojo Rabbit, Oh, yeah, it's more serious.
This is about kids getting killed by Nazis.
Like, hey, maybe not right now.
So then we switched to Adam Sandler.
Also, we tried to watch the first season of Lost, but we put on the first episode of the first season, and when the guy gets sucked into the airplane engine...
kurt metzger
They show that?
joe rogan
Yeah, my nine-year-old's like, cut!
Fuck this.
Stop this.
I'm not watching people get sucked into engines after a plane crash.
The fuck is wrong with you?
I'm nine.
She's right.
You're like, she's right.
The kid's right.
kurt metzger
I haven't had to consider...
Because I'm a kid, so if I see my nieces...
joe rogan
You know what's a good safe bet?
It's Adam Sandler movies.
But, some of them are like, there's some really inappropriate scenes.
kurt metzger
Yeah, which are the, like, the newer ones, or which are the ones that are like...
joe rogan
The best is Zohan.
Zohan's one of the funniest movies ever.
kurt metzger
Oh yeah, I like the Zohan.
joe rogan
It is a fucking funny movie.
It is so funny.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I like that movie.
It's like, the end, it was like...
Ridiculous.
joe rogan
Yeah, the singing thing.
Yeah, it was kind of preposterous.
But it was fun enough that I was like, you got me.
I'm going with you the whole ride.
You know?
I mean, it's just...
kurt metzger
What else is a...
joe rogan
It's a funny movie, man.
Like an unapologetically, ridiculously funny movie.
kurt metzger
Oh, his fucking Netflix.
joe rogan
Happy Gilmore.
kurt metzger
Did you see his Netflix?
joe rogan
I didn't see it, no.
I heard it was very good.
kurt metzger
Really good, dude.
joe rogan
Yeah, I heard it was very good.
Dana White loved it.
He's awesome, man.
I know him.
He's a great guy.
I've met him a few times.
He's a very, very, very nice guy.
But his movies are so unapologetically funny.
Like, just goes for all the ridiculous jokes.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well, you get a...
joe rogan
Zohan is all of its dick jokes and sex jokes.
kurt metzger
He got that blowback because on a talk show he said, I was just going on vacation with the last couple or something, right?
joe rogan
Oh, I wasn't paying attention.
He got blowback?
kurt metzger
Yeah, because he said, the ones that aren't that good...
Like the ones that are good, I remember they're like, you know, like I remember Simpsons lines or what, you know, like fucking Billy Madison and all that shit.
He's got a bunch of people to remember.
Happy Gilmore.
joe rogan
Happy Gilmore is a classic.
kurt metzger
That's Happy Gilmore.
But the ones that, I don't know if they didn't do well, like they're with, what's her name?
joe rogan
From E.T. Drew Banger?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I think it's like those ones, but he said something like, the last few movies I've just gone on vacation.
joe rogan
Oh, he said that?
kurt metzger
I think he probably didn't mean it like...
joe rogan
I don't think he meant he was phoning in.
Adam Sandler confirms that his movies are just paid vacations.
Also, he could just be being humble.
kurt metzger
He could be just being funny.
joe rogan
And funny.
You know, because I've done that since 50 First Dates, Sandler explained.
It was written in another place.
I said, imagine if we did it in Hawaii, how great would that be?
And they said, yeah, that's a very artistic idea.
I've been doing that ever since.
So he's just saying he does his movies and vacations at the same time.
That's pretty wise.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well, it sounds like it got made into a thing by an article.
joe rogan
You know what they are, dude?
They're like...
They're just funny, right?
He just tries to do the funniest thing.
And for whatever reason, some people have decided that that's dumb.
Because there's some movies that don't do that.
There's like Coen Brothers movies where more sophisticated humor that still gets you just as hard.
kurt metzger
I like all his Coen Brothers movies, but I never thought of them as like...
Big Lebowski?
What's the bowling one?
joe rogan
Oh, Kingpin!
Yeah, that's Farrelly Brothers, right?
kurt metzger
Yeah, and that holds up pretty fucking good.
joe rogan
Pretty fucking good.
That's a brilliant movie.
That's a brilliant movie.
kurt metzger
You know what I saw fairly recently?
A friend of mine showed me, Withnail and I. Did you ever hear that?
joe rogan
No, what is it?
kurt metzger
It's from like the 80s, and it's...
Fucking George Harrison from the Beatles like produced it.
It's a comedy fucking hilarious, dude.
unidentified
Really?
kurt metzger
I never I heard of the title but I never seen it and I don't remember in Wayne's World They had that guy who was like a roadie who would tell crazy stories Yes, that character they took from this movie and that's what he's doing.
It's the same actor.
Whoa, it's that guy's in it and this guy Does that help dude?
I had never seen it.
It was fucking hysterical Wow They're like out-of-work actors, and they live in this fucking rat-infested, you know, because they're alcoholics, and they go to the country to get away from their stress.
I don't want to spoil it.
It's really goddamn funny.
joe rogan
There's some great fucking old movies that slip through the cracks.
kurt metzger
This one I like.
I like Blazing Saddles.
joe rogan
Really?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
You could make that now.
I like it like that.
It really is fucking classic.
I heard of it, never watched it, but it's fucking funny.
joe rogan
I'll check it out.
I'll check it out.
Yeah, it's...
You know who still makes movies the same way?
It's Tarantino.
He still makes hyper-violent...
kurt metzger
I liked that new one.
joe rogan
I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed it a lot.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
kurt metzger
But I just have a foot fetish, so that's why I'm into it.
Yeah, it was pretty awesome, though.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, it was pretty awesome.
kurt metzger
Did you see a Bruce Lee?
Do you believe the Bruce Lee?
What do you think that whole Bruce Lee thing is about?
joe rogan
Well, I've talked about it almost too much, but in the interest of keeping up this conversation, I don't think he's right.
He depicted Bruce Lee in a way that made him look like an asshole.
And I think Bruce Lee was very confident, but I don't think there's really any evidence that he was a dipshit.
And in that movie, they make him out to be kind of a dipshit, and there was a real instance, and this is what I've talked about before, Bruce Lee had relationships with people that were stuntmen in a positive way, and one of them was Gene LaBelle.
Gene LaBelle's a famous guy who was a judo champion who taught Bruce Lee a lot of judo moves, and they worked together in several movies, and But Gene LaBelle, if he had an actual fight with Bruce Lee the way Brad Pitt did, Gene LaBelle would have killed him.
I mean, Gene LaBelle was a real, a gigantic man, a gorilla of a man.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
He was a really strong guy who was also a judo champion.
I mean, his grappling's obvious.
kurt metzger
It's like he had a gripe, or he just wanted to make Bruce Lee look like a dildo.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's the problem.
So there's Bruce Lee getting his ass kicked by this guy who's just a random tough guy.
And they get in this...
They don't tell you that Brad Pitt...
kurt metzger
He was so tough he killed his strong wife on his boat.
What's that?
Remember he maybe killed his wife?
joe rogan
Who maybe killed their wife?
kurt metzger
The Brad Pitt guy that beats up Bruce Lee.
joe rogan
Did he really?
kurt metzger
In the movie, they suggested he killed her.
joe rogan
What was it from?
I'm not trying to remember that now.
kurt metzger
That's why they didn't like him on the set.
Remember that Australian lady?
joe rogan
Goddammit, I forgot that plot point.
kurt metzger
He was on the boat, and his wife's bitching him out, and he's just holding a spear gun, and then it never resolves.
But it was always rumored that he killed his wife, but nobody ever knew for sure.
That was like the...
So when he fought Bruce Lee...
joe rogan
He's like the Carole Baskin.
kurt metzger
Yeah, he was a Carole Baskin, but with sharks.
joe rogan
This is from your mom's house, by the way.
People with a shirt.
Don't blame me.
kurt metzger
I mean, she seemed like she did it, but I wouldn't want to weigh into that.
joe rogan
Yeah, I don't know if she did it.
kurt metzger
I want to steer clear of tiger people and all their problems.
joe rogan
Good point.
kurt metzger
Man, don't buy a Porsche.
If you want to get laid, get a fucking tiger.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
kurt metzger
They all start like a little sex cult around themselves.
joe rogan
Yeah, like why is that, do you think?
Do you think because they're dealing with...
kurt metzger
Because tigers, they're feeling...
I mean, I like shooting guns.
That's like a...
It's fun.
Like, walking a tiger must feel like whatever that is, like times a million.
That'd be like if you just hung out with a fucking shoebill that followed your commands.
joe rogan
Yeah, could you imagine?
kurt metzger
You'd get an ego quick.
joe rogan
If you were dealing with giant cats all day, how freaked out you'd be?
kurt metzger
Well, they're getting off on that this cat's not killing them when it easily could.
They're all getting off on that.
It's exciting to pee.
And plus, a lot of people just love animals, so you get to mix really primal feelings together.
Yeah.
That's why that lady got her arm bit off, but she's like, don't blame the tigers.
And she shouldn't.
It's her goddamn fault.
joe rogan
Then she went back to work there.
unidentified
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Once they have a taste...
joe rogan
It's he now.
That was a big part of the movie.
kurt metzger
After the accident?
joe rogan
No.
She's transgender.
She's a he now.
kurt metzger
Oh, really?
joe rogan
Yeah, that was a big part of the controversy that they had misgendered her.
They misgendered her in the television show.
kurt metzger
Oh my god, I thought I had done a shit.
joe rogan
No, no, no.
But you did because you said she.
kurt metzger
You fucked up, bro.
Hey, I'm as mad about this documentary as everyone else.
That was the information I had to work with.
unidentified
Bro, that's a dark moment when a tiger takes your fucking hand.
joe rogan
And you see it.
kurt metzger
But, okay, you know when they talk about, like, if a bear gets a taste for human, it's bad?
Like, if a tiger got taste for specifically my arm, like, I don't want to work with that tiger.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
kurt metzger
You know?
joe rogan
There's moments in that show, one of them, where the tiger's dragging him away by his foot.
Remember that?
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
And he shoots the gun.
It's like, son of a fucking bitch!
You fucking bitch!
Remember?
The tiger lets go, but he's literally holding onto his foot and dragging him away.
kurt metzger
Wow.
I didn't see that part.
joe rogan
Oh my god, dude.
In Tiger King?
kurt metzger
I missed that one.
I haven't seen all of them.
I've seen most of it.
joe rogan
The thing grabbed his feet and was pulling him away.
kurt metzger
But why?
joe rogan
And he...
They don't know.
Because it's being a tiger?
kurt metzger
No, I mean...
I'm sorry.
What was the situation?
joe rogan
He was inside the cage with the tigers and everything was cool.
But then one of them grabs him by the foot.
It's checking out his feet.
Won't leave him alone.
And then grabs him by the foot and drags him away.
kurt metzger
Do you mean the way he was?
joe rogan
So he's hitting at it with a stick, and then he pulls out a gun, and when he pulls out his gun, he shoots near it, and it lets go.
kurt metzger
Oh, it's a loud noise.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's a loud noise, so it lets go.
But he starts screaming at him, fuck a bitch.
So he thinks that in the show, he said he thinks that someone put something on his shoes.
kurt metzger
Oh.
jamie vernon
Sardine oil.
joe rogan
Yeah, well, that was what the lady had said.
Like, to get a cat to eat Carol Baskin.
By the way, I don't know if she did.
This is just your mom's house.
They told me to wear it.
They forced me.
kurt metzger
Do they have a little, in our opinion, Carol?
They should.
We put that on there.
joe rogan
I know, right?
Anyway, he almost had to shoot the cat.
He was pulling him away by his feet.
For some reason.
kurt metzger
Just decided to pull his shoes off.
joe rogan
Maybe have some nice Jordans or something.
What size do you wear?
You know, I think it probably feels like if it smelled...
I would just imagine leather to a cat.
Unless it's really tan.
kurt metzger
Smells like delicious beef jerky?
joe rogan
It smells like some kind of meat product.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Wouldn't it?
kurt metzger
I mean, it's probably fun to bite.
joe rogan
I mean, dogs bite chews, but are they just biting it because it's soft and it feels good?
Or do they know it's leather?
unidentified
I don't think they know it's leather.
kurt metzger
That'd be crazy if they knew.
joe rogan
Oh, I know where this came from.
But I mean, they know it's some sort of an animal product.
kurt metzger
Maybe.
I don't know.
I don't know a lot of stuff.
joe rogan
Like for a dog, like if you just had raw leather laying around, a dog would be like, why can't I just eat this?
I think this is food.
They'd walk up to him like...
kurt metzger
I had two dogs.
I don't remember them being any particular way at leather.
joe rogan
No, but like shoes are things you wear so your smells on them, but you just have leather laying around.
kurt metzger
Yeah, that, like if someone you sent out, yeah.
joe rogan
But don't people give their dogs leather chew toys, right?
kurt metzger
I never did, so I don't know.
joe rogan
No?
Never?
kurt metzger
No.
joe rogan
I think rawhide is leather.
It is?
Yeah.
kurt metzger
I thought they were edible.
joe rogan
Yeah, they are edible.
kurt metzger
It's edible leather.
joe rogan
Yeah, the leather is edible.
Leather is edible.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
Yeah, it's just really, really tough.
kurt metzger
Like a jacket.
If you were starving, you could eat your jacket.
joe rogan
People in the Depression actually boiled their shoes and ate their shoes.
That was a real thing.
People ate shoes.
That's how much people were starving to death.
That was a real thing.
kurt metzger
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
Yeah, eating shoe leather was like when people would talk about the lowest point of people being desperate for food.
unidentified
That's when I had to eat my shoes?
kurt metzger
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
I know, Jesus Christ, right?
kurt metzger
Oh my God.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's real depression.
kurt metzger
We would have been thankful for Bat Soup back in that day.
joe rogan
You know what Swartzen said to me?
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
He said to us.
I'm in a group text with him.
He said a friend of his is a sheriff, and they said they used to deal with maybe one suicide a week, and now they're dealing with as many as five a day.
Where?
I probably shouldn't say.
In the Hollywood area?
kurt metzger
No, you probably shouldn't.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Well, I mean, this is a very...
joe rogan
It's crazy.
Do you have a podcast or something?
kurt metzger
People that are used to doing a...
Not doing stand-up feels very...
joe rogan
Very weird.
kurt metzger
I'm disoriented with what day it is.
I didn't realize how much I was timing my life out from when I had spots.
joe rogan
Right.
And depended upon it.
Artistically, too, right?
kurt metzger
Yeah, absolutely.
joe rogan
People have hit this weird breaking point.
We're like six weeks in, right?
And people are really antsy for things to open back up again.
So there's like an additional tension that seems to be in the air.
kurt metzger
Maybe it's time for celebrities to sing us to sleep with us.
Don't stand so close to me.
joe rogan
Don't stand.
That's a creepy song.
unidentified
Right?
joe rogan
Isn't that a song about...
kurt metzger
I guess pre-COVID-19 it's creepy.
joe rogan
But don't stand so close to me.
Isn't it about like a teacher and a young girl?
kurt metzger
Is that what it's about?
joe rogan
The subject of schoolgirl fantasy.
kurt metzger
Well, if he was saying, come closer, schoolgirl, that would be worse.
joe rogan
She's hitting on him.
He's the teacher and she's hitting on him.
Here we go.
Young teacher, the subject of schoolgirl fantasy.
She wants him so badly.
Knows what she wants to be.
Inside her, there's no room.
Hmm.
This girl's an open page.
Bookmarking.
She's so close now.
This girl's half his age.
Don't stand so close to me.
kurt metzger
Oh, because they're fucking.
joe rogan
Yeah, well, her friends are so jealous.
You know how bad girls get.
Sometimes it's not so easy to be the teacher's pet.
Temptation, frustration so bad it makes him cry.
Wet bus stop.
She's waiting.
His car is warm and dry.
Don't stand so close to me.
Loose talk in the classroom.
unidentified
What?
kurt metzger
Holy fuck.
unidentified
Holy fuck.
kurt metzger
He starts to shake.
He starts to cough.
COVID-19.
joe rogan
Too hurt, they try and try.
Strong words in the staff room.
The accusations fly.
It's no use.
He sees her.
He starts to shake.
He starts to cough.
Just like the old man in that famous book by Nabokov.
kurt metzger
A Lolita.
unidentified
Don't stand.
joe rogan
Don't stand so.
Keep going.
What else?
That's the whole song?
Okay, that song is a pedophile song.
That's a song about a guy getting tricked into fucking a 14-year-old.
Don't sing that one.
kurt metzger
Would you say a guy getting tricked into fucking a 14-year-old?
joe rogan
That is a song about a guy who's getting lured in by a young Lolita.
I mean, that's what it's leading up.
She wants him so badly, you know?
And then it's not so easy to be the teacher's pet.
All right, they're all together.
They're in the car together.
It's raining out.
His car's warm and dry.
He's a criminal!
kurt metzger
Dude, until you told me that, I've never in...
I don't know how long I've heard that song, like 30 years or however long it was around, thought that was what...
I've listened to it so many times, like not that I even saw it out, but just over and over again and never...
joe rogan
That's what it was.
kurt metzger
That's why it doesn't matter about lyrics.
Dude, that shit used to go on.
joe rogan
When I was in high school, a Spanish teacher fucked my friend.
kurt metzger
I went on in my school.
I knew someone that happened to.
joe rogan
The song was penned by Sting, who just happened to have a former career as a teacher before the rock stardom came calling.
kurt metzger
Dude, I told a story about it on...
joe rogan
People used to fuck their students back then.
This girl that I knew was 17, and the guy was a young man.
He's a handsome young man.
He's one of my favorite teachers.
Anyway, they fucked!
I don't know what the rules were back then, but I'm pretty sure.
kurt metzger
When I was in high school, a bunch of girls I knew were dating some guy that could probably have gone to jail.
But a few people...
I told a story on Ari's show...
I knew somebody who, like, he was in high school and hooked up with his geometry teacher, and they ended up being married.
joe rogan
When I was in high school, I dated a girl.
She was a very nice girl, but she was also naughty.
And this naughty girl fucked an older man who had a boat.
unidentified
That sounds like such a good Billie Eilish song.
joe rogan
She fucked the guy or her and her friend fucked the guy.
Anyway, she was a naughty girl.
kurt metzger
Older man who has a boat.
joe rogan
But a very nice girl.
She's adventurous.
And one of the things she said, it was like he gave her a hard time about it.
And she's like, motherfucker, I'll turn you into the police.
kurt metzger
Oh, you know what?
We were doing a prom show years ago.
I don't know if they do that here, but in New York, the club's prom season.
A bunch of Long Island high schools go to comedy shows after their prom.
joe rogan
Yes, I did that at Dangerfields.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
I worked at Dangerfields.
kurt metzger
So one of the limo drivers, I don't know who asked him, like, do you ever, like, because by the way, the girls look like kids, like, like, it was crazy how much they look like kids to me, these high school kids.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
There'd be a couple where you're like, oh, that looks like an older kid, but they all like kids.
But somebody asked the driver, one time a driver, a girl...
I don't remember if she was 16, he said, but she came on to him and they fucked and she goes, how much you make tonight?
And the guy was like, I don't know, like 500 bucks.
And she goes, I think you made 200 and took $300 off this thing.
joe rogan
Oh my God.
kurt metzger
Yeah, like that's a really advanced fucking thing to do.
joe rogan
She stole 300 bucks and fucked him.
It's an interesting call because she like turned herself into a prostitute.
kurt metzger
I just don't know why you would make that.
Although, remember To Catch a Predator?
Half those people seemed like they would go to anybody who had written back to them.
joe rogan
I got a theory about that, too.
About why guys are into high school kids.
kurt metzger
Why?
joe rogan
I think there's some guys out there that hit a point in their life Like, maybe, like, right after they graduate, where their life got really fucked up, and it didn't go anywhere.
kurt metzger
Yes, I've heard the Sting song.
joe rogan
It got really fucked up, and it didn't go anywhere, and they wanted to, like, relive their childhood.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
Like, if I went back to high school, like, maybe they have a lot of regrets.
They got clowned a lot.
kurt metzger
I knew then what I knew now.
joe rogan
They got beat up.
But it is that kind of thing, where it's like, you want to go back and be the hero.
kurt metzger
There's a thing that makes you stuck in a certain moment.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Well, there's a thing with women, too.
That's why a lot of women wind up fucking high school boys, right?
Women that are teachers.
Like, how many times you heard that story?
kurt metzger
I heard it growing up.
joe rogan
It's constant.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I know somebody did it.
joe rogan
The funny thing is, they barely get arrested.
Like, most of the time, they don't do any time.
I saw one recently.
kurt metzger
I think that's a lot of places.
joe rogan
She was fucking a 16-year-old boy, and they just said, don't do it anymore, and they gave her, like, one year probation.
kurt metzger
Where was this?
joe rogan
I forget.
I forget.
kurt metzger
They gave her a court order to knock it off.
joe rogan
It was probably like Kansas or something like that.
They're like, stop it.
Just stop fucking the guy.
kurt metzger
People what you call farm strong out there.
joe rogan
But if it was a guy that was fucking a 15 or 16 year old guy.
kurt metzger
We're just happy it's not a cousin.
Go.
joe rogan
We're just happy it's not a guy.
If a guy was doing it, they would want that guy locked up in a cage for sure.
It's interesting.
I mean, I agree with it.
It makes sense.
But it's still, it's kind of crazy.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I don't, man, I guess...
joe rogan
Dude, so many teachers blow their students.
I mean, it's just, the only ones you hear about are the ones where these pussies can't keep their mouths shut.
kurt metzger
Well, I know somebody...
joe rogan
They have to go to their mom and go to the teachers and go to the cops.
kurt metzger
You know what?
It depends if you're a fucking kid or not.
It depends on how old the kid is.
If I was like 16, when I was in high school, like 16, I was as kid of a 16-year-old as you can be because we were religious, so I had no...
Really, I mean...
joe rogan
So do you think that those are the guys that they try to fuck, or do you think they go after the young football player guys?
kurt metzger
I think it's all kinds of different...
joe rogan
Like, if you're a crazy girl who wants to relive childhood, relive high school, so you go and get a job teaching high school boys...
kurt metzger
I think somebody just strikes your fancy, and they probably never thought it would be like that.
I think it's like some pure, you know...
joe rogan
Maybe they think like, when I was in high school, that boy wouldn't give me the time of day if I was in high school with him.
But now I can fuck him, because I'm 32 and I'm the teacher.
kurt metzger
Do you think it's that thought through?
joe rogan
A hundred percent.
It's all planned out.
There's journals and schematics.
kurt metzger
Oh, is there journals?
joe rogan
They got a map of how they want it to go down and all the friends are connected in one of those little circles with all the lines that come out with different names.
kurt metzger
Who was the one that they made that movie about with Nicole Kidman?
I mean, there's a real story of someone where some, you know, the teacher got the kid to kill her husband.
joe rogan
Oh, right.
That was...
kurt metzger
And then, uh...
joe rogan
That was, uh, was that in New Hampshire?
Where was that?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
Then there's a documentary about her where, like, made...
It's a fucking crazy story.
joe rogan
Was that...
Was that Pam Smart?
kurt metzger
Yes, Pam was smart.
joe rogan
Yeah, I remember that, man.
Everybody had jokes about that.
kurt metzger
Yeah, everybody does.
joe rogan
In 88, when I was just starting to do stand-up, it was right around then that it happened when I was an open-miker.
So everybody had like Pam Smart jokes.
To die for.
What did the real Pam Smart look like?
Not that good.
kurt metzger
Well, keep in mind that's imprisoned for a while.
joe rogan
Well, it's just not fair.
Yeah, she's pretty cute with some fucked up Revere hair.
Look at her hair.
Go back to that picture again.
kurt metzger
What year is that?
What year of hair was that?
Because I remember that when like...
joe rogan
That's in the 80s for sure, girls in here like that.
kurt metzger
Everybody had Peg Bundy here?
joe rogan
Yep.
In the 80s.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
To Die For was 95. Yeah, you're not...
It's hard to fuck with a 1995 Nicole Kidman.
Right?
That's what year it was?
Yeah.
unidentified
Here's another version of it too with Helen Hunt.
joe rogan
I'm not as good.
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
It's fine.
It's more accurate.
But I think like...
kurt metzger
Well, Nicole Kidman was supposed to be just a character based on her.
joe rogan
But it's funny, right?
Because if you're doing an actual real-life story, you would really...
If you had a teacher that looked like Nicole Kidman, it would change the narrative.
Like, there's a weirdness...
kurt metzger
No, it 100% does.
joe rogan
Yeah, because there's a weirdness if it's a big, fat lady.
unidentified
Right?
joe rogan
If it's a big, fat lady...
kurt metzger
Dude, the guy that I knew...
The guy that I knew, the teacher was hot.
And everybody was like...
Everybody was like, oh, that kid's looking pretty cool.
joe rogan
Yeah, exactly.
What were you saying?
It was like...
jamie vernon
Loosely based on that movie.
joe rogan
Loosely based.
unidentified
Inspired.
joe rogan
Yeah.
So here's the problem with that.
If like Salma Hayek, like hot Salma Hayek from Dust to Darkness, that one, Inner Prime, remember when there was another foot thing with Tarantino?
kurt metzger
Oh yeah, he takes a shot off her feet.
joe rogan
Yeah, he takes a shot off her feet.
kurt metzger
No, when you hear it and then you look back, you're like, wait a minute, there's a 20 minute foot scene in every...
Fucking Kill Bill!
She's like, now wiggle your toes.
It's like, camera hangs on toes for a while until they move.
joe rogan
If that Salma Hayek.
kurt metzger
Until I come.
joe rogan
She was so hot.
If that Salma Hayek wanted to fuck your 16-year-old boy, what kind of a chance does he have of saying no?
He's got zero chance of saying no.
kurt metzger
I mean, there's probably mythological creatures based on that.
joe rogan
Look at her.
Look at how hot she was.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
Get the fuck out of here, man.
She was so smoking hot and still is.
She's still hot as fuck.
kurt metzger
Yeah, even without a foot fetish, that foot thing is like, oh, I would do that.
joe rogan
Yes, exactly.
Exactly.
She's beautiful.
Now, imagine if she is the teacher and some 15-year-old, 16-year-old boy, the teacher, let's not say it's her.
Let's say it looks like it could be her cousin or something like that, but really hot, just as hot as her.
Let's not say it's her.
Let's not be disrespectful.
If someone on an equal scale of hotness to Salma Hayek fucks your 16-year-old boy, what chance does he have of saying no to that?
How about zero?
kurt metzger
Some might consider that beyond consent.
I think that's the entire idea of it being a kid.
joe rogan
The thing about it is, if he was 18, you'd be psyched for him.
Just two more years.
If he just lived 24 months and he was cooked better.
kurt metzger
Somebody said it to me.
Maybe Annie said it to me.
If it is just a year, why can't you wait a year or something?
I think it's arbitrary.
joe rogan
Grown women that want to fuck 17-year-olds don't have a year to wait.
Those bitches are all crazy.
kurt metzger
They don't.
That's right.
joe rogan
They don't have any time.
kurt metzger
That's right.
joe rogan
They don't have no time to wait.
kurt metzger
Oh my goodness.
joe rogan
They have credit card debt.
There's fucking ex-boyfriends trying to chase them down.
kurt metzger
I was going to say, how will a high school student help your credit card debt?
joe rogan
You know, some of those women are married.
Some of those women are married to guys.
kurt metzger
I think a lot of the people are married.
joe rogan
And they wind up fucking their students.
I was never around that.
I never experienced that as a kid, where a teacher, a female hot teacher fucked any of my friends.
kurt metzger
Yeah, no, I never had that.
There was a gym teacher and somebody in my school, I remember.
joe rogan
Oh, a female gym teacher?
kurt metzger
No, it was a male gym teacher and somebody else.
joe rogan
That makes sense.
kurt metzger
I think he just got fired.
Just now.
You know, I could be wrong, but I think the guy that the school had a weight room, you know, he'd go to after school.
And the guy, I remember hearing some shit like that about the guy that was like ran the weight room.
He's one of the gym teachers.
I remember he was very, always very grabby and like, I didn't think it was just, it was very Joe Biden-y, like shoulder rubs and you know, like, I got hairy legs!
He just wanted to press your leg hair down and then you'd press his leg hair down.
joe rogan
No big deal.
kurt metzger
Just press his leg hair down.
joe rogan
Everybody likes the kids playing with their leg hair.
It's fun.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Totally normal to talk about too if you're running for president.
kurt metzger
Dude, that fucking...
Is that from the Corn Pop thing?
joe rogan
What?
kurt metzger
Is that the Corn Pop speech?
joe rogan
I think it is.
Yeah.
kurt metzger
The thing about I got hairy legs.
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And something about going by the pool.
Yeah, no, he was a...
kurt metzger
He was a lifeguard, and he fucking stared down the local gang leader, Corn Pop.
joe rogan
Is that what the story is?
kurt metzger
Yeah, and he had a chain, and then instead of fighting, they became friends.
And he was like, I'm sorry I called you Esther Williams.
joe rogan
In front with razor-wielding gangster named Corn Pop.
kurt metzger
Yeah, they used to rust their razors in a rain barrel.
joe rogan
That's a real story?
unidentified
That's the whole story.
joe rogan
It's the same with the pool.
I only heard the legs in the pool part, I think.
I didn't know about this other guy, because now I might need to hear this.
Are we allowed to play this?
Is this news?
How does this work?
Okay, let's hear the audio.
Let's hear what it says.
joe biden
And I was one of the guards, and there was a three-meter board.
unidentified
If you fell off sideways, you landed on the darn cement over there.
And Corn Pop was a bad dude.
joe rogan
Whoa, is there a laugh track on this motherfucker?
kurt metzger
Corn Pop was a bad dude.
unidentified
And he ran a bunch of bad boys.
And I did.
joe biden
And back in those days, to show how things have changed, one of the things you had to use, if you used pomade in your hair, you had to wear a bathing cap.
And so he was up on the board, wouldn't listen to me.
unidentified
I said, hey, Esther, you, off the board, or I'll come up and drag you off.
Well, he came off, and he said, I'll meet you outside.
joe biden
My car, this was mostly, these were all public housing behind it.
unidentified
My car, there was a gate out here.
I parked my car outside the gate.
joe biden
And I, he said, I'll be waiting for you.
unidentified
He was waiting for three guys in straight racers.
Not a joke.
joe biden
There's a guy named Bill Wright Mouse, the only white guy, and he did all the pools.
He was the mechanic.
And I said, what am I going to do?
unidentified
He said, come down here in the basement where mechanics, where all the pool filter is.
joe biden
You know, the chain, there used to be a chain that went across the deep end.
unidentified
And he cut off a six-foot length of chain.
He fold up.
He said, you walk out with that chain.
joe biden
And you walk to the car and say, you may cut me, man, but I'm going to wrap this chain around your head.
unidentified
I said, you're kidding me.
He said, no, if you don't, don't come back.
And he was right.
So I walked out with the chain.
And I walked up to my car.
And in those days, remember the straight razor?
joe biden
You'd bang them on the curb, get them rusty, put them in a rain barrel, get them rusty.
And I looked at him, but I was smart then.
unidentified
I said, first of all, I said, when I tell you to get off the board, you get off the board, I'll kick you out again, but I shouldn't have called you, Esther Williams.
I apologize for that.
joe rogan
Pause this for a second.
unidentified
Pause this for a second.
kurt metzger
Do you know who Esther Williams is?
joe rogan
Oh, we're almost done.
We're almost done.
Go ahead.
Keep it going for a second.
It's only a few more seconds to go.
unidentified
It's going to work.
He said, you apologize to me?
I said, I apologize for that.
Not for throwing you out, but I apologize for what I said.
He said, okay.
joe biden
he closed his straight razor and my heart began to beat again.
unidentified
That...
kurt metzger
How polite were those children being, by the way, during that fucking...
joe rogan
That was one of the things I was going to say when I paused it.
No one's paying attention to him.
All those kids are talking.
kurt metzger
They all went to a happy place.
joe rogan
They're all just talking.
This guy's running for president, and they're behind him, and he's on stage.
kurt metzger
Was this a president stump thing?
I thought it was something else.
joe rogan
I don't know what it is, but he's running for president while this is going on, for sure.
kurt metzger
Oh, he was.
joe rogan
Look, there's that thing, the city of...
Where is it?
Because it says it on that little city symbol that's on the front of the podium, Delaware.
So who've set this up where you have a bunch of kids on stage behind him not paying attention while he gives this long-winded story about razor blades and chains and...
Basically, they apologize to each other and then...
kurt metzger
It's crazy that he's a presumptive...
It's crazy to run him.
It's absolutely fucking crazy.
joe rogan
It's weird, man.
It's weird.
You know what's interesting?
It was interesting talking to Owen Smith yesterday because I love Owen.
He's a...
Really brilliant comedian.
One of the best guys I know.
And we were talking about it and he said, Biden makes me feel like things would be normal again.
kurt metzger
I think he's saying the people that go We'll go for Biden, and that's not a small amount of people.
Yeah, there's like some Obama rubbed off on him, but Biden was never a guy who was going to get elected before that.
He's certainly not now.
It's just trying to get that feeling back, and it's not coming back.
They got to fuck in.
joe rogan
But you've never seen a greater example of team loyalty?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Than this.
This one right here.
kurt metzger
That's what this is.
joe rogan
100%.
Because no one on the left wants to talk about these crazy long-winded speeches and things that don't make any sense.
kurt metzger
The lefties, I learned about it watching, I think, Jimmy Dore.
The people on the left, this is why they lost.
I mean, I say that they lost when fucking Nanette came out.
But, like, people on the left didn't want him.
joe rogan
No.
kurt metzger
And they weren't on board Bernie.
Like, Bernie's saying, hey, go along with.
People were following Bernie because of what they thought his policies would be, not necessarily like a cult of personality.
So they don't give a shit if Bernie says vote for Biden.
They were voting for way more lefty shit and not the normal feeling.
In fact, they hate those.
The real lefties can't stand like an Owen Smith Democrat.
Above all else.
joe rogan
They wanted it changed.
The real lefties want everything changed.
kurt metzger
Yeah, the Republicans had to have their thing where Trump just trashed.
He trounced them when he came in, right?
And they're like his bitch now.
And so they had that fight.
There's no one...
Bernie was never going to do that with the Democrats.
joe rogan
But isn't it crazy that it's all about likability and electability?
Like, that's really what it's all about.
If people like you, they'll give you a chance.
kurt metzger
A simple, clear message.
Dude, a simple, clear message.
See, the Biden thing, you're right, that people just want to feel normal again.
I don't know how you...
joe rogan
That was Owen's...
Take.
That was how he felt.
Him personally.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
If they could make that into a slogan, I just want to feel normal again, that would be like a MAGA for them.
But somebody's got to come up with that.
joe rogan
Well, dude, you've got to look back in time and you look at history and all the mistakes that were...
That's what you're reading about when you're reading about lost wars and invasions that went terrible.
You're hearing about trials and errors and mistakes.
kurt metzger
Well, that's when you see people's fucking principles.
Because, I mean, especially with Biden, the thing of all the people that were crowing about believe her and all that shit that are like, well, you can't believe...
Sometimes people are lying.
Oh, are they now?
joe rogan
When it came after him, yeah.
kurt metzger
That's really despicable, man.
joe rogan
Well, there's only a few people out there that don't do that, that are in the media, that are in that sort of...
kurt metzger
The media loves this shit more than...
I mean, how they hate Trump when it's like 90% their fucking fault.
joe rogan
There's a lot of different things going on, man.
kurt metzger
Did you see Annihilation?
joe rogan
Some of it is like sports.
It's like you want your team to win.
It's a lot of that.
kurt metzger
I think that's a huge amount of that.
joe rogan
Huge amount of that.
kurt metzger
You know that movie Annihilation with Natalie Portman?
joe rogan
Yeah, that was the one where they, that was by the same guy who made Ex Machina, right?
kurt metzger
Yes.
joe rogan
Yeah, that was really good.
kurt metzger
Remember the end and Natalie Portman?
joe rogan
Don't spoiler alert for everybody.
This is quarantine.
People can see that movie now.
kurt metzger
Alright, well, when you see it, they've had enough time to watch it.
I'm just kidding.
There's a thing of her that's rainbow-colored that's like a duplicate of her.
joe rogan
Right, right, right.
kurt metzger
And she's trying to run.
It's pressing her against the door.
She's fighting it.
And then she stops for a minute, and then she gives it a grenade and pulls it and gets away.
The more she would fight it, it would give equal reaction back at her.
unidentified
Right.
kurt metzger
That's what these people...
It's like Trump's your fucking reflection and you hate it.
And the more they fight it, the more it presses them back up against the door.
And they're never going to figure out how to just give him the grenade and pull the pin and walk away.
Because they can't like...
joe rogan
He definitely makes mistakes, but they are also so wrapped up in everything that he does...
In a way that they distort even things that probably turn out to be a good idea.
kurt metzger
He plans for that.
He does that every...
The people that just could get ruined by one minor thing, you're like, I'll do a thing every fucking day.
And what are you going to do?
And people, like...
A bunch of people just don't follow him.
It's genius, dude.
If you hate his guts, you can't say it wasn't very smart.
joe rogan
But people are so wound up.
This is...
Look...
Anytime you get too emotional about things, your view of things get distorted.
It's one of the things that happens in fights all the time.
You see, fighters talk shit to each other, right?
And one of the reasons why they talk shit to each other is because they're trying to get the other person emotionally invested in the fight.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
They're trying to get them angry and pissed off where they're going to do something irrational, they're not going to be logical.
kurt metzger
Right.
joe rogan
That's what you're seeing.
You're seeing that with him.
Instead of them analyzing it, it's like everything is a personal affront, and he's like a demon that must be slain.
kurt metzger
That's people that vote for a feeling.
That Obama feeling, that's why it's such an offense.
It's not about anything Obama did or didn't do.
It's the feeling that people got.
It's been offended, and they want that back.
joe rogan
Always said about him, like, forget about his policies.
Like, he was a great statesman.
The way he would talk would be like...
kurt metzger
Yes, that's the thing.
joe rogan
Yes.
He was reserved, and he was articulate and smooth, and when you would hear him talk, like, that's an excellent representation of the United States.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
Like, perfect.
That's one of our top dudes.
Makes sense.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
Yeah.
And, like, even-keeled, didn't get angry.
kurt metzger
I expect certain bourgeois norms.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
joe rogan
Whereas, like, the thing with Trump is that he's, you know, like you said, he's not really a politician, so he's just being the guy he's always been.
And everybody's like, I thought you were going to be a president, though.
kurt metzger
I thought you were going to act like we need—because you want to be called POTUS. I thought people got him for specifically the opposite of that.
It's like, and that shit's done now.
So people still want the West Wing or whatever the fuck, like— That's what it is.
It's like you're West Wing kind of people.
joe rogan
If you want reform, real reform, you should be kind of happy that he exposed it.
kurt metzger
What I think it exposes is how not rigged it is.
Because if someone controlled it, no fucking way.
joe rogan
They only control some of it.
kurt metzger
Yeah, based on the fucking of Bernie and him getting in.
Not that Bernie was going to win.
joe rogan
The fucking of Bernie, though, it's crazy.
It's like you're watching in real time.
kurt metzger
Bernie's not fit to be president.
Listen, if you get bulldozed like that, you're not fit.
unidentified
You're right.
kurt metzger
I think he's a genuinely good man, which is why he's unfit to be the president.
This is not a job for that.
joe rogan
Well, this is one of the reasons why they're so scared of Tulsi Gabbard.
It's because she doesn't lay down like that.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Once she had that moment with Kamala Harris in the debates.
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah.
That was great, by the way.
joe rogan
It was fucking amazing.
Instead of saying, wow, this lady's dynamic, they're like, oh shit, we can't really control her.
She's going to attack our top lady.
She's going after people.
She's saying things that if you want your team to win, you're not going to give up those cards so early.
kurt metzger
Well, there's an internal thing you've got to settle with, all the people that are actual left that are mad, and they want their Trump.
And so they're not going to go along with the same, because I think a lot of liberals don't get that the lefties hate you more than they hate a Nazi.
They hate you more than any right-winger, just a regular liberal.
That's who they want to get.
That's why they turn on Ellen or whoever the fuck, because they're waiting to have a reason to turn on you.
joe rogan
Right.
No one's going to pass the purity test.
No one.
They're just looking for something.
And I think that, again, it goes back to the thing, like, that's not nice.
Like, if all your...
You're constantly attacking...
kurt metzger
Now's not the time to be nice, Joe.
Now's the time for rage.
joe rogan
Yeah.
There was someone that...
Someone wrote something about...
Oh.
That guy from CNN. What's his name?
Brian...
kurt metzger
Stelter.
joe rogan
Stelter.
kurt metzger
The one who looks like Divine out of drag.
joe rogan
That's that guy.
He wrote something about angry journalism.
I forget what he wrote, but it was widely criticized.
kurt metzger
Why?
joe rogan
Well, because it was like, basically, he's admitting that this is, like, you're not doing journalism.
This is like editorial.
It's an editorial take.
kurt metzger
Yeah, that's a direct, very, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's like you're calling for activism more than you're calling for reporting the news.
And you believe that you're correct, so you're going to, like, push your idea.
I mean, this is what, when we go to the news, what we really want is someone who's going to tell us exactly what happened without any political bend to it.
That's what we really want.
kurt metzger
And we expect, by the way, I still, even saying that, I still expect I'm probably going to see a little bit of it.
People figure in there's probably going to be that.
And when I was a kid, it was like that, but not near to now, where it's become like a catty gossip mixed with news.
Yeah, now it's fucking bonkers.
Because women shared more online.
They're targeting the emotions of women.
That's specifically...
joe rogan
By design.
This is the same thing we're talking about with the Elon Musk thing.
How could you say that he didn't do that when he can show you all these tweets?
How can you accuse someone?
kurt metzger
He's just out to get him, dude.
They have a thing for him.
joe rogan
The same thing, though, right?
Where are we in the news world now?
kurt metzger
Some rapper talking about how the cops won't leave him alone.
He's like a guy like...
The cops are always going to bother him.
He just got on the bad side of it.
It's an institution.
And all these institutions, if you talk about it, they hate you.
They have it in for you.
It's crazy.
Think of a cop that's corrupt going, well, the thin blue line.
But you're a fucking dirty...
joe rogan
So that's how they are with Elon Musk?
kurt metzger
So they are with a bunch of people.
joe rogan
That's so crazy.
kurt metzger
It's not like so much about justice, let's say, as it is about processing and the system and shit.
That's their job, okay?
And that's what they fucking...
joe rogan
Did you find his quote?
A bunch of people had made a meme out of it and were passing it around.
It was him calling...
I forget the expression that he used, but I really wish I could remember, because I looked at someone's tweet about it or Instagram about it, and they were saying, finally, you're admitting what you really do.
Finally, you're admitting that your rage journalistic instincts are showing.
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah, right.
joe rogan
It's rage journalism, you know?
kurt metzger
They've been open like that for a while, I feel like.
joe rogan
We need somewhere that's going to give us the information, just clear, 100% dedicated to factual information, without any political bend at all.
No one's doing that.
kurt metzger
Somebody will be like, it's not possible, so it might as well be my politics.
joe rogan
It's got to be possible.
kurt metzger
It used to be possible.
joe rogan
Yeah.
It's got to be possible to just read the news.
Because if you look at every...
There's got to be some things...
kurt metzger
Whoever does that will start getting views and...
You know what I mean?
Somebody who fills that niche, it will be successful.
joe rogan
Because there's going to be people who should be able to report on...
Maybe dumb shit that Trump tweets and also report on the really important things that are happening that are good for the economy.
kurt metzger
They should just stop reporting on Trump's tweets.
Just try it.
Just fucking try it for a minute.
joe rogan
You're playing right into his hand, first off.
kurt metzger
It's like annihilation.
Look what he said.
And then, while they do that, he gets a judge in or something.
He does that all the time.
It's very savvy, dude.
joe rogan
Oh, he's very savvy in a lot of ways.
It's like the fake, not sophisticated language that he uses.
It's almost like he uses that to kind of throw you off the trail.
Unlike Don King with crazy hair, he's got his own crazy hair.
It's almost like in some ways it throws you off the trail.
kurt metzger
There's something about crazy hair that really...
joe rogan
It throws you off the trail.
There's no newspaper or no thing that I subscribe to where I don't get at least some political bias one way or the other.
kurt metzger
You know what?
Just clearly mark the stuff that's editorial or this is not news.
Just mark it as that.
joe rogan
There has to be.
kurt metzger
And have news.
And then the news, you save one for the part that it goes.
Everybody just do their job.
You don't have to fucking, to the Daily Show, I blame a lot of this on the Daily Show, not because it was bad, a whole bunch of people, that became news for them.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
And so then all the other ones were like, why don't we have a Daily Show, but more news than comedy.
joe rogan
That's so true.
kurt metzger
People, it's terrible.
It's terrible.
joe rogan
That's such a good point that I never even considered.
kurt metzger
I mean, I didn't make it up.
Somebody must have said it.
joe rogan
I'm sure.
Someone said it, but it's a great point.
It's right.
That's news for a lot of kids.
Like college kids, they're barely paying attention.
They're flipping through Comedy Central and Jon Stewart's in there telling them what's going on in a hilarious way, in a hilarious way.
kurt metzger
Dude, Trevor Noah want, like, that's a different generation because I would just be like, why is it?
By the way, I know him.
I met him before.
Like, I like him.
But I'm just like, why do you have some guy that shows not an American?
What is with a guy with a foreign accent here?
joe rogan
It's beautiful.
kurt metzger
All these shows that are like the American, it's always someone not from here.
joe rogan
That's interesting.
Like John Oliver.
Same thing.
kurt metzger
And I even like him.
joe rogan
I like him a lot.
He's hilarious.
kurt metzger
They seem to have a fucking, what do you call it?
I don't have that kind of feeling of like...
I always have a level of that.
Like, who the fuck are you?
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
Like, I can't imagine going to England and doing a political show about their politics.
joe rogan
That's true.
kurt metzger
I can't even fathom that.
joe rogan
That is kind of funny.
kurt metzger
So, that's just like a thing that...
joe rogan
This is the only country I think you could probably do it.
No, didn't Tom Rhodes do it?
kurt metzger
Holland?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
He had a show in Holland that wasn't even the Tom Rhodes show.
He had to play a character.
The character was a talk show host.
kurt metzger
He couldn't just be a talk show host?
joe rogan
No, no, no.
So instead of Tom Rhodes, he'd be like, I'm Pete McGillicuddy.
kurt metzger
But then it's a talk show.
joe rogan
It was like the Pete McGillicuddy show starring Tom Rhodes or something like that.
Not Pete McGillicuddy.
What was the name of it?
unidentified
Kevin Masters.
joe rogan
That's right.
Kevin Masters show starring Tom Rhodes.
kurt metzger
It wasn't like a sitcom though, right?
joe rogan
No, but it was like a talk show host where, or a talk show rather, where he would play a guy that was different than him.
kurt metzger
Named Kevin Masters.
joe rogan
I mean, did that what they did or did they just call it the Kevin Masters show and he would say, I'm Tom Rhodes?
I don't know.
kurt metzger
Oh, is it like a joke?
joe rogan
I don't know.
kurt metzger
It's a joke you could only pull off in Holland.
joe rogan
And when everybody's high on mushrooms and tired from going to the whorehouses.
Yeah, you're pretty much right.
Is that what it is?
jamie vernon
Kevin Masters was a generic American name the producers used to fill in until they find an actual host.
joe rogan
Holland's a fascinating place, man.
It's a fascinating place because it was one of the first places where people go to get high.
I haven't either.
But it's also the place that produced some of the best kickboxers ever.
kurt metzger
Why did I? I kind of knew that for some reason.
joe rogan
A shitload of them came out of Holland, man.
Holland is like the motherland for badass kickboxers.
Like, when you hear about a kickboxer, you hear about him from Holland, it's like hearing about a jiu-jitsu black belt who's from Brazil.
You're like, whoa!
Like, Holland has...
kurt metzger
Yeah, why is that?
joe rogan
Dude, they're animals, man.
kurt metzger
Doesn't Belgium have a lot of, like, Van Damme kind of people, too?
joe rogan
I'm sure they do.
I don't know anything about Belgium, but I do know a lot about Holland.
kurt metzger
A guy in a horizontal striped shirt?
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
They can do flips and...
joe rogan
With black and white checkered vans on.
Yeah, Holland has also really large people.
I think the average height for a man is six feet tall.
kurt metzger
Is that right?
joe rogan
Yeah, women are really big there, too.
They have a bunch of great heavyweight kickboxing champions, like Peter Ertz.
He came out of Holland.
There's so many of them.
Ernesto Hust.
Ernesto Hust is one of the most brilliant and beautiful technicians of all time.
He came out of Holland.
kurt metzger
Is kickboxing, that and jiu-jitsu, is that the two in MMA? Is that like the things everybody basically just have to know?
joe rogan
Yeah, you have to know wrestling, too.
But wrestlers have to know submissions as well.
And everybody has to know stand-up because you're standing up.
But it depends.
There's a few guys.
kurt metzger
Is it like stand-up comedy?
joe rogan
No, no.
Everyone has to do stand-up.
Two different types of stand-up.
When you say stand-up, you mean striking.
kurt metzger
I got my judo, and I got a spot at the store.
joe rogan
That's hilarious.
I didn't even think about it that way.
In my mind, I have two different types of stand-up that I don't even...
I just say it.
You gotta work on your stand-up.
People do say that.
You gotta work on your stand-up.
Isn't that funny?
kurt metzger
Holy shit.
It's striking.
joe rogan
You gotta work on your striking.
kurt metzger
Oh, striking, that's right.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's what it means.
But it basically means stuff that you do on your feet.
He's been working a lot on his stand-up.
kurt metzger
I remember seeing it on a Star Trek episode or any kind of sci-fi where they're trying the martial arts of the future.
This martial art is the culmination of all.
And they did it on Star Trek.
This is their future martial arts.
It's nothing like MMA. I don't remember that at all.
It's ridiculous.
It was like a ridiculous high-kicking...
joe rogan
Well, that's where Bruce Lee was brilliant.
Bruce Lee kind of figured it out.
Bruce Lee, in a lot of his movies, sort of depicted mixed martial arts fights.
kurt metzger
Do you think in real life that Bruce Lee could beat Brad Pitt?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
I don't think he would have fought anybody, man.
Not like that.
If you get back to that story about Quentin Tarantino's depiction of him, I don't think he would have done that.
I don't think he would have behaved like that.
He wasn't a buffoon.
He was a tough guy.
I'm sure he was very confident.
When you read the things that he wrote and when you see the interviews that he gave where he talks about things, he was a very deep thinker.
He wasn't a buffoon.
He would talk about things in a very profound way.
kurt metzger
I didn't like how they portrayed Charles Manson either in that movie.
joe rogan
Dude, you gotta read this.
You gotta read this book.
You can't even get it right now.
It's Tom O'Neil's Chaos, Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the 60s.
I listened to the audio version of it.
He gave me this, but the fucking podcast I did with him blew my mind.
kurt metzger
Oh, really?
Yeah, these things are crazy.
joe rogan
But this one, this one's even more crazy because it's all about these psychiatrists that were experimenting on hippies with acid.
kurt metzger
Isn't that why the Unabomber fucking...
joe rogan
Yes.
kurt metzger
Because they did a hippie experiment on him when he was like a teenager.
joe rogan
He was part of the Harvard LSD studies.
Yeah.
kurt metzger
That's fucking crazy, dude.
joe rogan
Dude, they did it to a lot of people.
That's what this book ultimately turned out to be about.
Tom O'Neil wrote this over 20 years.
It took 20 years for him to put all this together.
He started as a small story.
I think it was like a 5,000 word story for Vanity Fair.
Or no, Premiere.
Premiere Magazine.
And that magazine eventually went under.
And then he got a book deal and he missed a deadline.
Because he kept diving deeper and deeper into MKUltra and CIA. Yeah, dude.
Oh, it's crazy.
kurt metzger
Did, uh...
joe rogan
This book is a mind blower because it's all factual.
He's got 60 pages of references and citations at the back of it.
kurt metzger
I will totally listen to this book since I can't get it.
They sold out.
joe rogan
They didn't prepare.
kurt metzger
Have you ever read the manifesto, the Unabomber manifesto?
joe rogan
No, I didn't.
kurt metzger
It's crazy how...
How almost reasonable it sounds.
Like technology is going to be a problem.
It's very weird.
I don't see the connection of where he blew these people up.
The point you all agree with, but they're so rational, it sounds like he came from the future and he had to make those bombs.
joe rogan
I bet that's what he thought.
kurt metzger
It reads like that.
It's wild, dude.
joe rogan
There's a guy named Jolly West that's a part of these MKUltra experiments, and he's connected to the Manson family and all these other different people.
kurt metzger
But why the Manson family?
joe rogan
Because Charles Manson was a guy that, for sure, they gave him acid in prison.
At least the way they're describing the possibility, he was even talking about certain doctors, and he has the last name, the doctor is the last name, but the doctor is a part of this program, and doctors that treated him while he's in prison, and he comes out of prison, and there's evidence that he gets released over and over and over again every time he violates parole.
Someone on high wants him out on the streets, and he's got a large supply of acid, and he's got very sophisticated techniques that he's utilizing that he learned in jail.
Sophisticated techniques of how to brainwash hippies on acid.
Get them to fuck each other.
kurt metzger
By the way, if you're just a very manipulative criminal, you can figure out how to manipulate hippies on acid.
joe rogan
You certainly can.
kurt metzger
You don't need training for that.
joe rogan
But we're talking about within two years, he's got to murder in people.
kurt metzger
I think the pimp lessons he learned helped him do that.
joe rogan
The disassociation with reality through LSD, through constant trips, daily trips, he got so much acid for brainwashing.
kurt metzger
I'm just saying, I'm sure he did that.
I don't know that he did it for the CIA. I could easily see him, for his own reasons, brainwashing people with that acid.
joe rogan
Let me clarify.
When I say he was a part of a CIA experiment, I don't mean he did what he did for the CIA. What I mean is they let him do what he was doing and they encouraged him and helped him and gave him drugs.
kurt metzger
That's like the story of...
joe rogan
Yes.
kurt metzger
That's very believable.
joe rogan
If you're letting this guy keep getting released every time he robs a car or someone's house or when you think he's going to somehow or another be locked up and you want him out on the street doing this thing.
And they were trying to discredit the hippie movement and the anti-war movement back there.
And that's part of the way they did it.
They infiltrated these groups in one way or another.
And one of them would be to take a guy like him.
kurt metzger
Yeah, like the old Mary Hill boat lift when they dropped a...
Cuba emptied their prisons into America.
joe rogan
Yeah, fuck you.
kurt metzger
Yeah, that's a...
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Well, that's a pretty well-known thing, the thing about the drugs.
Like, well, it was just, you know...
joe rogan
Yeah, it's a pretty well-known thing.
kurt metzger
It'll weed out the weak elements of society and we'll get a lot of information.
joe rogan
Well, it's also, they didn't exactly know what would happen when you dose people up with acid back then.
There was a lot of experiments.
kurt metzger
We got a lot of great info from that Nazi guy, and it's not so easy to get those...
joe rogan
I'm sure the Nazis were a part of those programs too, right?
I mean, when they start doing that.
kurt metzger
That Japanese guy who's like worse than fucking Mengele, I can't remember what it's called.
It's so crazy the shit this guy did to people.
And they wanted to know what he learned from his human medical experiments.
So they let him off.
joe rogan
Oh, Jesus Christ.
kurt metzger
I wish I remember the name of it.
It's a Japanese...
But it's mostly done to Chinese prisoners.
But, like, you know, cold and pressure and all...
Like, it's fucking grisly, dude.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
And it's just...
He did so many amoral, like, experiments.
There's knowledge that helped humanity that they got...
Same reason we can go put that great cold in the record in space.
These people have useful knowledge.
joe rogan
Yeah, isn't that crazy?
kurt metzger
So, educate yourself if that's...
joe rogan
They're like, look, it's more important that you tell us how many pounds of pressure it takes to crush a little kid's head Yeah, we did not know that, officially.
Yeah, officially.
Tell us what you got.
Jesus Christ, just let him go.
Imagine being that guy who killed, like, hundreds of people and they just let you go.
Imagine you, like, eating ice cream at a diner.
Just fucking sitting by yourself.
kurt metzger
I doubt you have to eat either.
joe rogan
Drinking a cup of coffee, eating ice cream.
Nobody even knows.
And you're like, thank you, I'd like one more, please.
kurt metzger
Didn't they have that, uh, oh, here it is, Shiro Ishii, that's the guy.
joe rogan
That's the guy.
Jesus Christ.
He led in development and application of biological weapons at Unit 731. And how do you say that word?
Manchukuo?
Manchukuo?
How do you say that?
kurt metzger
Manchukuo?
joe rogan
The U and the O together?
How do you say that?
kurt metzger
Probably just sneeze it, basically.
joe rogan
Manchukuo.
kurt metzger
Manchukuo.
joe rogan
Anyway, however we say it, during the Second Sino-Japanese War from 1937 to 1945, including the bubonic plague attacks on Chinese cities, oh my god, and the planned attack against the United States.
In Operation Cherry Blossoms.
Holy fuck, man.
Oh, isn't that the one where they would send the balloons across the country?
kurt metzger
Yeah, it didn't.
joe rogan
Yeah, it didn't work.
kurt metzger
Or they'd use bats or something.
joe rogan
What were they going to do with the Operation Cherry Blossoms at night?
Imagine just like, this is my plan.
Operation Cherry Blossoms at night.
Bio-warfare.
jamie vernon
They're gonna drop the blind plague, color of smallpox.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
So they were gonna do that to America in balloons?
Is that what they're gonna do?
kurt metzger
And to come at us through our most vulnerable way, our love of balloons?
joe rogan
Yeah, no one would ever want them.
kurt metzger
Who would resist?
joe rogan
Isn't that a fucking song?
99 red balloons go by.
kurt metzger
That was about Shiro Ishii, 99 Luftballons.
joe rogan
That was a big song when I was in high school.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
The girl was cute.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Okay, these killed six American civilians near Bly, Oregon.
kurt metzger
I thought they didn't kill anyone.
joe rogan
Crashed into a farm in Medford, Oregon, and caused a short circuit on the power lines supplying electricity for the nuclear reactor.
Cooling pumps in the Manhattan Project's production facility.
Holy shit, dude.
Did you know that?
kurt metzger
What were they dropping on him?
joe rogan
They had balloons with bombs attached to him.
kurt metzger
But was it supposed to be with plague or something?
joe rogan
Well, I don't know.
Jamie said that was part of it.
But what I did hear on...
There was an episode they did about this on one of my favorite podcasts, which is...
Radio Lab.
Radio Lab did a whole series or a whole episode, rather, about these balloons that people would find, these non-detonated balloons.
And I think people accidentally blew themselves up a couple of times.
kurt metzger
Wow.
joe rogan
Yeah.
I think people found them and then they found out after the war about the project.
But I think a bunch of them made it here.
And some of them went off and some of them didn't go off.
It says contaminated fleas.
unidentified
They were dropping contaminated fleas.
joe rogan
Oh my god.
That's so dark.
Jesus Christ.
I'm so glad we're friends with Japan now.
kurt metzger
That's such a dark move.
In China, all the bad guys, I'd watch the local TV, so everything is about a mean Japanese general and a brave Chinese.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Nazis are a pop culture.
Go to, like, we always use as a villain.
Japan is that, too.
China.
joe rogan
Well, you and I had this conversation about, you don't have to say a person's name, but someone saying, why isn't it okay to punch Nazis?
Like, you know that conversation?
kurt metzger
Yeah, right, right.
joe rogan
I've had that same conversation with people.
And you and I were both like, yeah.
kurt metzger
By all means, punch a Nazi, but I want to just see your Nazi detector.
unidentified
Yes, exactly.
kurt metzger
When you're Nazi-dowsing to find these Nazis, I can't just go off your word like, no, I'll handle it.
joe rogan
Dude, I read someone calling Ben Shapiro a Nazi.
kurt metzger
There's a guy, I think maybe you were going to have him on, but I like him.
He's a guy on YouTube that reviews comic books that he fucking got...
It's crazy what they did to him.
joe rogan
Oh, I've heard the story.
I've heard the story.
What is it called?
Something Comics?
What is it?
kurt metzger
It's called...
It's called...
I don't know.
His name's your boy Zack.
I forget.
joe rogan
What is his...
kurt metzger
Comics Matter is what your boy Zack is the name of the channel.
joe rogan
And so what happened with him?
What was the story?
kurt metzger
He made him into like some kind of...
He was crazy.
He made him into some kind of Nazi.
I mean, he's the most reasonable.
The reviews are so utterly reasonable.
Okay?
Where...
And by the way, guy gives credit to people when he thinks they're good.
Like, there's nothing...
If you actually looked at what he said, there's nothing there at all.
But because he mocks the dumb shit they do in comics now, they made him...
They're like, he's a white nationalist.
He has a lawsuit because they did that to him.
joe rogan
Injecting social justice warrior credos into comic books now, right?
kurt metzger
Well, there's a little power.
There's a little fiefdom of Portland weirdos that, I guess, run comics now.
I didn't know this.
joe rogan
Fiefdom of Portland weirdos is the best description.
kurt metzger
Besides blame the Daily Show, I blame Portlandia for the other half of problems, just so you know.
Before you guys fucking unleash Cthulhu out of there.
Oh, we're going to have some laughs and fucking...
joe rogan
Dude, that's so true.
They are the...
That is the liberal epicenter.
That's Mecca.
Like, the comedy store is Mecca for comics.
That's Mecca for social justice warriors.
kurt metzger
And it's like in a really annoying...
Like, I didn't know...
I did a comedy show at Stonewall one time in...
You know, Stonewall, like the historic, like where the gays fought the cops in the village.
joe rogan
Where is that?
kurt metzger
In New York.
joe rogan
Okay.
kurt metzger
And I thought it was going to be a good show because, you know, this is back in the days of, you know, where Joan Rivers was like a gay icon.
You know, like...
unidentified
Right.
kurt metzger
So I assumed it would be a great crowd.
It was awful.
joe rogan
Really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, and the guy who was combing my hair was like, no, dude, you don't go...
That's not where like cool gays are at fucking Stonewall.
That's like some dipshit...
Living out their worst fantasy of being gay.
So I didn't even realize.
It's like going to Hate Street in San Francisco.
joe rogan
Oh, today.
kurt metzger
Yeah, you're like, jerk off.
joe rogan
It's not 67, fuckface.
kurt metzger
Yes.
So I think there's a lot of that setting in.
joe rogan
Right.
They're trying to bring it back.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Ugh.
Yeah, anytime there's a place where hippies, it's like, that's a fire.
kurt metzger
I miss hippies.
joe rogan
Okay, it'll burn out.
kurt metzger
Hippies were a lot more fun.
joe rogan
Right, but they burn out.
It burns.
It's like there's no fuel there.
It eventually...
It goes away.
kurt metzger
The kind of new-ish thing to me of that is the Twitter, like, certain groups just got marketed to based on lazy following, like, ooh, what does Twitter say?
Like, that should never be an article anymore.
Like, Twitter is saying, that should never be a thing I need to know about, ever.
joe rogan
Well, that's what we're, yeah.
kurt metzger
So that got catered to so much, it created a bubble around people that's fucking crazy, and they're getting fed it still just to sell them products, and this virus is gonna fucking pop that bubble.
It's like bad real estate right now, being a fucking, being woke.
There's a real estate market that is gonna...
joe rogan
Being upset about stupid shit when real shit's going down is always out of fashion.
kurt metzger
Yeah, the value's way down.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's out of fashion.
Well, that's where it came from in the first place.
It came from not enough real problems.
Yeah.
kurt metzger
That's right.
I don't think it's the end of the world.
joe rogan
And it also came from people.
unidentified
No.
kurt metzger
Same thing.
I never could get emotional about who's president.
I was in a Doomsday cult, dude.
I thought I was going to kill all of you by now, was how I absolutely thought.
Any minute now, so people think that's the end of the world.
They say that, but...
joe rogan
Have you ever seen Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I like that show.
joe rogan
That's a funny show.
Do you really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, the first episode of that?
I mean, I didn't live underground with Jon Hamm, but certainly that mindset, yeah.
joe rogan
It's a funny fucking show.
kurt metzger
It's just communal reinforcement keeps you in things.
And also, the people around me were nice.
I'm not bitter about it.
It's just like, I can't ever be, or don't stumble your brother.
It's not any kind of courage or anything.
I'm compulsive.
joe rogan
Well, for a guy like you, it's always important for a guy like you to talk about it.
Especially a guy like you, who's all the way out and is now a comic.
Because people need to understand that it's a trap that you can get sucked into.
It's like a pattern of behavior and thinking, and you get this confirmation from all the people that you're around.
Everybody's doing the same thing.
We all could get sucked into it.
kurt metzger
I think I'm only less susceptible to that now just because of growing up in that.
So because it's such an obsessive thing to me, I'm more likely to see it where it's not than not see it.
joe rogan
But some people are not going to understand that.
kurt metzger
If you didn't grow up in a religion where you had to do it, you have no idea.
You don't understand religious people.
And it shocks me at the level that people don't understand religion.
joe rogan
It's almost like we need another word.
For what?
Because you know what you're saying that social justice warrior behavior, in a lot of ways, it gets very religious.
Yeah.
And it gets religious also for Republican conservative type of behavior.
That gets very religious, too.
kurt metzger
I can tell you a religion when it becomes called woke.
joe rogan
That sounds like a religion.
kurt metzger
Anything that you get devoted to, where you said it, that team thing, like, well, we got to stay on the team.
joe rogan
Have you ever had a conversation, like, here's an example, with a right-wing person who doesn't believe in climate change?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I used to always argue with Nick...
DePaulo?
Yeah, when we were doing...
joe rogan
He doesn't believe in climate change?
unidentified
Come on.
kurt metzger
No, not about that, but DePaulo is always like, we'd be on that lucky...
What was the Hulu thing that Louie had?
Jeez, I'm so fucking high.
Louie.
Horse and Pete.
joe rogan
Oh, oh, oh.
kurt metzger
So Nick, he's awesome to hang out with waiting to shoot something.
He was awesome.
But arguing about political shit, he gets like...
joe rogan
He gets heated.
kurt metzger
And he's like, what do you, love Obama?
It immediately goes to that.
But yeah, but you know, I like him.
I think I wouldn't want him not to say what he thinks.
joe rogan
What'd he say?
kurt metzger
I don't know something about Obama.
I don't know, some stupid guinea pig.
joe rogan
You should be able to say whatever you want to say.
kurt metzger
I have no issues engaging people like that.
I'm used to knocking on strangers' doors.
So nobody wanting to talk about their thing threatens me in any way.
Like, proselytizing does not bother me.
It would bother me if I'm not allowed to hear it.
Because I don't need someone to tell me what I can...
joe rogan
Do you think there's less examples of that on the right than there are on the left?
Of people with sort of compulsive speech?
kurt metzger
I think that the people that whoever needs to worry about are all the people that aren't too far to one or the other.
unidentified
Right.
kurt metzger
I agree.
There's every degree, every goddamn thing.
There can't just be two parties, which is the good one and then the immoral, evil ones.
joe rogan
Yeah.
It's ridiculous.
kurt metzger
That's crazy.
By the way, 68 fucking genders and only two sides of politics.
That's fucking incredible.
joe rogan
It's so true.
It's so true.
kurt metzger
Yeah, so that's what happened to that guy, your boy Zack.
He got fucking, you're with us or you're a Nazi.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's the problem.
They want compliance.
It's a game.
It's not just people that have an ideology and some people agree with it and some people don't.
It's a game of compliance.
kurt metzger
Wait, did you see the New Mutants thing?
joe rogan
Mutants?
kurt metzger
The New Mutants, the Marvel?
joe rogan
No.
kurt metzger
Dude, Marvel's reboot of the New Mutants.
unidentified
Yeah.
You said it earlier, the new comics that they're making, remember?
joe rogan
Right, but what is the new Mutants?
kurt metzger
Not that, it's not, it's, what is it called?
unidentified
Did you mean the TV show, the new Mutants?
kurt metzger
Not the new, I'm sorry, not the new Mutants, the new Warriors.
Have you seen the most, the most woke?
joe rogan
No.
What is this?
kurt metzger
You're going to think it's a joke.
joe rogan
Really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, so this is the kind of thing he would be laughing at, okay?
Because I haven't read comics since I was a kid.
joe rogan
Yeah, I like comic book movies.
kurt metzger
Everybody likes the movies, but it should be easier than ever to give kids the comics.
joe rogan
Okay, what is this?
Okay, we have talked about this.
Snowflake and Safe Space.
kurt metzger
So this is some kind of trolling, but basically they've been doing this in comics for the last...
It's like a nerdy...
Here's what happened.
Comics and Star Wars and all that shit was nerdy guys that don't get laid stuff at one point.
And then it became kind of cool to be a nerd.
And then it became a hot property.
And so then it got claimed by...
The Cthulhu Portland thing?
That's what comes of it.
This.
Unironically.
joe rogan
Look how unironically they swapped the gender colors.
Blue and pink.
kurt metzger
Yeah, people that are fucking...
I don't even know...
Whose jurisdiction this is?
But people were mad at this.
The people they were trying to pander to were like, I don't dress like this.
joe rogan
You better not.
It's ridiculous.
If you dress like that, even people that don't want to make fun of you will start making fun of you.
kurt metzger
Well, it just looks like I would give up.
I'm like, I can't mock you better than you're doing yourself.
joe rogan
Like, what?
Okay.
kurt metzger
I mean, if I was like, hey, why don't you make fun of the stupidest woke comic you could think of, that would be my character.
joe rogan
Bro, her bulge is bigger than his bulge, too.
Have you noticed that?
kurt metzger
Well, how do you know that's the woman?
joe rogan
Well, I'm assuming the one that's in the blue with the hips like a woman is the woman, and the one that's built like a man, I'm assuming that's a man.
kurt metzger
It's a trick question.
Neither of them are a woman.
unidentified
She's got a bigger dick.
joe rogan
It's a trick question.
The answer is, you're a piece of shit.
You fucking pig.
You cisgendered ass fuck.
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Oh, wait.
Then here's...
Well, B negative isn't as funny as...
Oh, wait.
Where's the girl with the backpack?
That's the other one.
Oh, holy shit.
joe rogan
Screen time.
He has goggles over his eyes.
kurt metzger
Because he was exposed to his grandfather's internet gas.
His grandfather's experimental.
Really?
joe rogan
She's fucking hot.
kurt metzger
That's the old.
That's the old warriors.
joe rogan
Oh, those are the old ones?
Oh, those back in the good days.
Shit.
kurt metzger
Where's the girl with the backpack?
unidentified
I don't know.
kurt metzger
Come on.
joe rogan
Go back up to the top.
This is boring.
kurt metzger
This is the main...
joe rogan
Oh, no.
That's not a superhero.
kurt metzger
What do you think her power is?
joe rogan
Her power is eating cake.
kurt metzger
No.
joe rogan
What?
kurt metzger
It's a magical backpack that has unlimited snacks.
No, I'm making that up.
She just has a magical backpack.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
A pocket dimension with seemingly infinite space, which she could pull out useful or random objects.
Okay.
kurt metzger
So look at the drawing.
joe rogan
It's not always under her control, though.
She claims to get her power from God, but not the God you're thinking of.
Jesus Christ, I can't do this.
kurt metzger
But look at the drawing.
joe rogan
Let me see the drawing again.
kurt metzger
Look her in the eyes while you say that.
joe rogan
She looks strong.
She can carry a lot of stuff on her back.
A magical backpack.
She eats too much.
You can't be a superhero when you eat too much.
kurt metzger
It's like, you know how Wendy from Wendy's got real big when they showed her again?
This is like what happened to Dora the Explorer.
She got older and ballooned up.
joe rogan
I guess they want something that represents some people.
kurt metzger
That's a luxury.
That's like when you have the luxury of being like...
Like Gillette...
Are you good enough to get Gillette?
As opposed to being like, please buy our thing.
We're beneath you.
We're a fucking razor company.
That's what this is.
Fuck you to the people that are into that shit, which you can only do in a good economy.
Like now, people better love your shit.
You don't get to just troll them.
joe rogan
Right.
Good point.
It's going to be harder to sell things.
kurt metzger
Or troll me and make me laugh.
I will give it to that guy who made that up.
joe rogan
Right, well that's where the benefit of bad things actually comes in sometimes.
Like some of the best things are bad things that are good by accident.
kurt metzger
Yeah, like what?
joe rogan
Like that The Room movie?
You see that movie?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I used to introduce that movie in New York.
I did it for a promo thing for Comedy Central first, but then I'd never seen the movie, so I kept going back and hosting it.
And then we made a fake sequel to it.
This guy, George Glass, and he knew Tommy, so Tommy would leave me these long messages.
It's fucking...
Jesus Christ.
That's how long ago this was.
And the guy who played...
Oh, hi, Mark.
Greg, his name is...
He wrote that book that they made in the movie.
That guy's cool as shit.
The guy who plays Mark?
Yeah.
But the other guy, the one who got a blowjob and he had like...
He goes, shiver me timbers or something.
Because he left me underwears in your...
Remember that guy?
And he gets a blowjob on...
What's his name?
Weezo's couch.
joe rogan
God, I don't remember that.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I remember every character.
I saw it a bunch of times.
joe rogan
I don't think I've ever seen it all the way through.
kurt metzger
Oh, dude.
joe rogan
I think I've only seen scenes.
kurt metzger
I've never gone...
No, I never went to...
It has like...
Well, at the time, I don't know if it does now, but it had that Rocky Horror Picture Show kind of thing, which I never did that.
joe rogan
So at movie theaters, people would go and group watch it?
kurt metzger
But this movie, group watching it, it feels like right to yell at it.
I swear to God.
I thought it was like a...
I'm like, I'm not going to get it.
Immediately, it was like, oh, I really understand this.
And people yell.
Sometimes they'll have a band playing and like...
Yeah, it was great.
It was fucking awesome.
joe rogan
But the Rocky Horror Picture Show, they do that because they actually like it.
kurt metzger
Yeah, but...
joe rogan
This is a different vibe, right?
kurt metzger
Yeah, it's very hard.
I mean, he's genuinely a fucking maniac.
And hard to deal with.
I had to have...
Dude, I had my girlfriend and another friend dress kind of like slutty and distract him so he wouldn't see the parody thing we made before we showed it.
joe rogan
And leave.
Look at the reviews.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
But that, dude, nobody, listen, to make a thing that's watchably bad is like, that's a beautiful thing that can only rarely happen.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's interesting.
Like, The Room is so unfeasibly bad, it has become a cult hit.
Trust me, this is the worst movie you will ever see ever in your entire life, ever.
kurt metzger
But it's like...
joe rogan
But it's amazing because it's real.
kurt metzger
When they say worst, they have to be...
I mean, watchable where it's not boring.
That's the thing.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
It's just not boring.
joe rogan
It's just crazy.
kurt metzger
So I think that's like a real lightning in a bottle.
joe rogan
It's the worst movie because they're trying to make a good movie.
It's not the worst movie to watch.
kurt metzger
I think it's the best to go to a theater of people.
The best?
joe rogan
The best?
kurt metzger
People are shouting at the screen, because you have cancer.
The old lady with cancer.
unidentified
It's such a crazy movie.
kurt metzger
When did you see it?
joe rogan
I've only seen it on, I guess it was DVD at the time, and I only watched part of it, and then I had to shut it off.
I'm like, I can't do this.
kurt metzger
I remember that.
joe rogan
I remember those billboards, Jamie.
When I lived here early in the Hollywood days, right after they made this movie, I would drive around and see that billboard.
It was up there forever.
Forever.
He had The Room, the movie.
And we were like, ah, theroommovie.com.
You'd drive by it.
Like, what year was that?
I'm trying to remember.
jamie vernon
I might have made it up because I've seen this, but I feel like I've seen it in person.
joe rogan
Really?
He might have had it up.
He might have had it up still.
He had a billboard up forever.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
What year was the movie made, though?
2003, it said.
unidentified
What?!
joe rogan
How's that possible?
Well, I missed it.
I would have thought it was way earlier than that.
There's also multiple billboards.
unidentified
There's one where it was coming soon.
kurt metzger
How old is he?
Nobody knows.
joe rogan
I never saw the top one coming soon.
How old is he?
I don't know.
He looks like an older fella.
But there's a couple movies like that.
Like Showgirls is a movie like that.
kurt metzger
I don't remember it.
I just vaguely remember it.
joe rogan
It's a good one.
kurt metzger
Is that the end of Elizabeth Berkley after that?
unidentified
It's hard to bounce back from some of those movies.
kurt metzger
Because the movie is so bad or because it was, you know...
joe rogan
Who knows, man.
She went from Saved by the Bell to being a dirty girl.
kurt metzger
So did Screech.
joe rogan
They brought back Saved by the Bell?
Yeah, Slater.
Look at this.
Wow.
Still looks good.
Looking good, freak.
jamie vernon
They just made it.
joe rogan
Mario Lopez looking good.
Everybody's looking good.
So what are they coming back as the parents?
Yeah, like Zack is...
Back in the neighborhood?
unidentified
I don't know.
jamie vernon
There's a bunch of jokes referring to it and there's a bunch of new jokes about like iPads and blah blah blah.
joe rogan
Are they gonna let Screech back in?
I don't think so.
Screech was out there doing porn.
kurt metzger
No, Screech is like...
joe rogan
I wrote a book about them.
unidentified
I don't think that...
joe rogan
Oh, he was meaning the book, right?
kurt metzger
Behind the bell or something?
joe rogan
Something like that.
Screech was doing stand-up.
There was Skippy from Family Ties.
Remember when he was doing stand-up?
kurt metzger
Yes.
You know who lived with him?
Judah, Friedlander, was his roommate.
joe rogan
Oh, that's right.
kurt metzger
Yeah, and he said Skippy would just be in his room.
He would smoke pot all day, and then he would come out and be like, did you eat my...
He goes, I'm going to have a sandwich, and I'm not going to touch it for a while, but I want that sandwich.
And he would always come out freaked out about missing a call to something.
What happened to him?
Does he still do stand-up now or no?
joe rogan
I don't know.
kurt metzger
Now I'm Skippy with nuts?
joe rogan
I used to remember.
kurt metzger
That was his thing?
joe rogan
Is that what it said?
kurt metzger
He would go, yeah, like he's dirty now, like Skippy with nuts.
joe rogan
Get it.
I don't know.
He would always be there.
I never met him, I don't think.
Maybe I met him one time, but he would always be on the wall.
Like, come in next week.
Escape you from Family Times.
I remember that was the first guy that I worked in a club where he worked.
And I was like, oh yeah, that guy from TV. He's coming next week.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
Oh, who?
I met at TV. You know the first guy I remember I saw from TV and comedy where I saw him in the club was the legendary Wid.
Do you remember that guy?
joe rogan
I remember that guy.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
We saw him walking down the street.
It was me and Big J were doing the laugh house.
joe rogan
What was his schtick?
kurt metzger
He was a prop guy from the 80s.
joe rogan
That's right.
kurt metzger
He used to be on Making Me Laugh all the time.
joe rogan
People don't know that before Carrot Top, prop guy was a genre.
kurt metzger
Yeah, prop guy.
I don't like when they get political prop.
joe rogan
You just had all MAGA props.
Pulling out signs, and it's all like that scene in the NXS video.
You keep throwing them aside.
kurt metzger
When is prop comedy?
joe rogan
Remember that Bob Dylan scene?
One of the old Bob Dylan.
kurt metzger
Oh, my God.
joe rogan
The lady had the placards, and she's throwing them up in the air.
Or did Bob Dylan have the placards?
He had it.
kurt metzger
It's like a couple different people.
Yeah.
joe rogan
They've done that more than once, right?
The people hold up signs.
unidentified
Yeah.
kurt metzger
It was real whatever.
I didn't find it to be shit, but I know it's a legendary thing of throwing your placards.
joe rogan
Yeah, Jesus Christ.
Yeah, there it is, Bob Dylan.
kurt metzger
Oh yeah, right.
Oh, I'm thinking of U2. Didn't Bono do this after?
joe rogan
He might have done it too.
Maybe in tribute.
kurt metzger
I'm thinking of the U2 thing.
joe rogan
I'm pretty sure NXS did it.
kurt metzger
I've never seen Bob.
I had no idea Bob Dylan did this.
joe rogan
He was the first.
kurt metzger
I only saw the remake.
joe rogan
He would do it to the lyrics to his song.
kurt metzger
What?
joe rogan
Bring cue cards everywhere?
Subterranean Homesick Blues.
That's actually him singing the words.
So he's doing a music video but refusing to sing.
He's just holding up these pieces of paper that have all the different lyrics on them.
kurt metzger
Yeah, no, I never saw this version.
joe rogan
Yeah, it's good.
We can't play the music, unfortunately.
kurt metzger
Who did the thing that I'm thinking of?
joe rogan
I think NXS did it.
kurt metzger
Was it?
joe rogan
Yeah, I think it was NXS. NXS, who's the lead singer, is one of those dudes that choked himself to death jerking off.
kurt metzger
Yeah, it wasn't on purpose.
unidentified
It was one of those guys.
kurt metzger
Are you sure?
No, no, I'm asking.
joe rogan
Well, who knows?
Once you're dead, you can't ask you questions.
kurt metzger
Dude, somebody told me, because a lot of these musicians are ex-heroin addicts, so the only thing that's close to the endorphins of that is a good choke jerk.
joe rogan
Choke slash jerking off.
kurt metzger
Yeah, choke jerk.
So they do that.
It's something very specific.
joe rogan
That's it at the top, Jamie.
That was it.
jamie vernon
Ten different videos here that did it.
unidentified
A lot of people did it.
joe rogan
Oh, these are all different people that did it in different songs?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Oh.
unidentified
Rapper Molly Mall.
joe rogan
Okay, go up to the NSX one.
Well, I've never seen...
This is the one you're thinking of.
The top one.
kurt metzger
Yeah, that's right.
joe rogan
This one's pretty famous.
unidentified
Mediate.
kurt metzger
Yeah, that's right.
I'm thinking...
Wow.
Dude, I actually had no idea Bob Dylan did that first.
joe rogan
You didn't know?
kurt metzger
I only know an existing.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
Bob Dylan was the original.
Do you think that this guy...
Was he a heroin guy?
Is that why he was...
kurt metzger
It's like you burn out your pleasure centers of your brain so you need some intense like an explosion of Sensation from a choke jerk.
joe rogan
I never thought of it until you brought it up, but it totally makes sense Right, if you knew you couldn't shoot up anymore and you wanted to get that rush.
kurt metzger
He wanted to make this as an invention, like a Shark Tank invention, which he means dead serious invention.
It makes me laugh.
It's a belt.
It lets go.
It's got a sensor in case you gotta jerk off to your belt.
It has a sensor to just release you when you...
joe rogan
But if it lets you go in your unconscious, you might bang your head off the floor and die anyway.
unidentified
Well, some things are worth a risk, okay?
joe rogan
It almost makes you want to try it.
That's such an embarrassing way to die, though.
kurt metzger
I know, it's too...
joe rogan
There was a preacher that died.
He had a wetsuit on.
He died doing that.
Oh yeah, who was that?
kurt metzger
I remember that.
joe rogan
He had a giant dildo up his ass.
kurt metzger
What's the wetsuit for?
joe rogan
The wetsuit's the cold is coming.
kurt metzger
Does it get messy with that dildo?
joe rogan
The cold is coming.
Is it?
No, I'm just jerking.
I'm just guessing.
I would bet it was like a compression hold on that butt plug, the dildo.
So he's got this dildo up his ass.
kurt metzger
And then the wetsuit squeezes...
joe rogan
And the wetsuit sucks it all in place so it can't go anywhere.
So his ass can't shit it out.
kurt metzger
I mean, is it that hard to lose a dildo in your ass that you need a wetsuit?
joe rogan
I think your ass would want to shit it out immediately, and I think he's probably...
kurt metzger
Oh, and then the tension formed by that.
joe rogan
He's probably been to other rodeos, and so he's realized what gets him thrown off the horse.
unidentified
Yeah, I didn't think he just started at wetsuit level.
Wetsuit with a dildo.
kurt metzger
That was his first time in the wetsuit.
joe rogan
And a noose.
Wow.
And he's a preacher.
That's a lot.
It's a lot happening.
A lot of conflicting evidence.
kurt metzger
This guy has seen God.
You know what?
I believe him more than ever.
joe rogan
Yeah, imagine God called to him and said, listen, I'm going to bring you to me, but you've got to do it in a humiliating way.
That's the closest you can get.
Imagine if God, look, didn't God try to get people to kill their sons?
kurt metzger
Oh, you're talking about...
joe rogan
What was the story?
kurt metzger
Abraham and Isaac.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
It's to see if you would do it.
joe rogan
If you kill your son.
kurt metzger
It's not?
Yeah, it's not.
joe rogan
It's a creepy game God was playing.
Didn't actually go through with it, but it's a creepy game.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well, you know, you're not a fucking...
unidentified
Right.
kurt metzger
You're not like a cave Jew from the Bronze Ages.
joe rogan
Imagine that same God today, but he's only around occasionally.
And he comes down and he talks to his preacher.
kurt metzger
The fucked up thing is the view of your son as property.
See, this is the old world.
It's like, God will give you 10 more sons.
That's in Job.
unidentified
That's back when you owned your family.
kurt metzger
And by the way, if you didn't own them, somebody would kill them or do something awful.
That's just how it was.
joe rogan
Yeah, people are terrible.
kurt metzger
I don't judge none of their shit, but here's the reverse of that.
I'm not taking any judgment.
What if Moses saw you doing that?
It's not his fucking business.
joe rogan
But imagine if God was real, but God only came down occasionally and tried to get people to do fucked up things like kill their son.
kurt metzger
Imagine if one time he came down- Like he was like a Steve-O in his early prankster.
He was like an impractical joker.
joe rogan
Well, he's like Banksy.
Nobody knows what he looks like, but everybody's pretty sure he exists.
So he comes down occasionally.
He's not into giving large-scale advice, but occasionally.
He goes down and talks to this preacher and says, I want to thank you for believing in me.
I know you're a true believer, and I'm going to bring you to heaven.
But, you know, you have too much ego.
You hold on to too much ego, and I want to humiliate you in death.
kurt metzger
This sounds like the original script of Prometheus.
This is what he was originally going for.
joe rogan
Prometheus is a weird one, right?
kurt metzger
I kind of like it.
It's very stupid, but I like it.
joe rogan
I don't like it as much as I like the next one.
The next Alien movie was really good.
Covenant?
kurt metzger
I like that one, too.
joe rogan
I love that one.
kurt metzger
I know people didn't like it.
joe rogan
That was a good one.
It also features Jussie Smollett before The Allegations.
kurt metzger
It does?
joe rogan
Yes.
He's in it.
kurt metzger
He is?
Who is he in it?
joe rogan
He's one of the dudes in the ship.
kurt metzger
Is he a guy who fucking...
joe rogan
He's one of the dudes.
kurt metzger
Did he go to the cops and say a white alien popped out of his back?
It popped out of my back and it said, this is a MAGA ship.
joe rogan
This is MAGA country.
unidentified
Welcome to MAGA country.
joe rogan
This is a MAGA system.
You're about to enter.
Yeah, he was one of the dudes piloting the ship with, what the fuck's his name?
unidentified
Kenny...
kurt metzger
Oh, right.
joe rogan
Yeah, the comic, the hilarious guy.
kurt metzger
From the Foot Fist way.
Danny McBride.
joe rogan
Yeah, he's on it too.
He's hilarious in it.
kurt metzger
Yeah, I like it, dude.
joe rogan
Yeah, so there's Jussie Smollett.
kurt metzger
I know.
Wow.
joe rogan
It's a fun fucking movie.
Hey, look, he got jacked.
unidentified
Bam.
joe rogan
What is that, Cinemorgue?
Is that in the movie?
Is that a scene in the movie where he got jacked?
kurt metzger
Oh my god.
How did he audition for that part?
joe rogan
Did that go right through the back of his head?
kurt metzger
Yes.
Jesus Christ.
Now, I want you to imagine a cock coming out the other end of your bar.
Like, I don't have to.
joe rogan
My favorite part in that movie is when the one lady locks the lady and the infected guy inside that room after the thing bursts out.
kurt metzger
Oh yeah, that was cool, dude.
unidentified
Woo!
joe rogan
That was a heavy fucking scene, man.
That was a heavy scene.
That was a really good scary horror movie scene.
kurt metzger
Yeah, that was genuinely a fucking good...
joe rogan
And that alien that they made at the end?
That one that you're showing a picture of, Jamie?
That thing was...
kurt metzger
That was more in the beginning, that guy.
joe rogan
No, no.
He was...
Towards the end, I think, he was the combination alien that the artificial intelligence got.
kurt metzger
Okay, see the dark one there?
I thought that...
Oh, oh, oh.
That's the one that came out later that stowed away.
joe rogan
Yeah, that bit the girl's shoulder off.
Remember?
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
Remember that?
unidentified
Yeah.
kurt metzger
But I thought this one was like it would eat...
It wanted to eat them.
joe rogan
Yeah, it was trying to eat them.
Yeah, that's what it looked like.
That's what it looks like when it came chasing after that lady.
kurt metzger
Oh, Prometheus.
I'm sorry.
I thought you were talking about Covenant.
joe rogan
No, I am talking about Covenant.
Remember when they were downstairs in the other David's place?
kurt metzger
That was a black alien.
joe rogan
Was it?
I thought it was white.
kurt metzger
No, that's what comes out of your back.
The white one in the beginning.
joe rogan
But I thought there was a white one in that movie that...
kurt metzger
It might have been one that comes running in at the end.
joe rogan
It looked like that.
It's lighter skinned.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
Remember that, Jamie?
I'm not making anything up.
unidentified
I didn't see this movie.
joe rogan
There was a scene towards the end where they realized that this artificial intelligence guy had started breeding these aliens together and combining their DNA with people, with other things.
And it came and jumped out and got her.
kurt metzger
Where he put its arms up, the alien, like he did like a hand wave and it went like that.
joe rogan
No, it came in and bit her.
kurt metzger
The Joey Diaz hand wave, space wave.
joe rogan
It came running out and it bit her on the shoulder.
kurt metzger
Look at that.
This alien looks like Joey Diaz's balls.
joe rogan
I don't think this is the scene.
It's when he's downstairs in that artificial...
kurt metzger
There's a pink one.
It sounds like a pink one.
joe rogan
It was a weird color.
It was like a whitish color.
And it was down when he was in the dwelling where that guy would draw and do all scientific experiments.
unidentified
Oh, no, no.
kurt metzger
A face hugger got him.
joe rogan
Well, there was another one.
There was a full-grown alien down there.
Anybody who's like a real alien fan is probably so mad at us right now.
Yeah, this is it.
kurt metzger
I can feel it.
joe rogan
This is it.
kurt metzger
Oh.
I think.
Oh, he gets mad that someone shot it.
joe rogan
See, it's kind of a white thing.
unidentified
It's called a neomorph, I guess.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
They killed it.
And he's all mad.
He goes, hey.
joe rogan
What is this?
unidentified
The music was not.
joe rogan
What is that music that goes with it?
Okay.
Yeah, that's it.
So there's a scene, but there's a scene where it gets a girl.
I think.
I'm pretty sure.
I think it was, yeah.
See?
So it's kind of a pale looking thing.
kurt metzger
No, it is that.
joe rogan
Lack of entertainment in the last 15 minutes, ladies and gentlemen.
kurt metzger
I forgot which healing it was.
I know, it's romantic with this song.
joe rogan
Well, that was a cool part of the movie, that he had been there for so long, he'd been experimenting with these aliens and making different kinds.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
Yeah.
And it was also interesting, too, the difference between the new version where they had cut out creativity and the old version where he was...
kurt metzger
Wait, they cut out creativity?
joe rogan
In the artificial intelligence guys.
You know, there's always like...
kurt metzger
Oh, yeah, right, right, right.
A robot guy.
joe rogan
Yeah, there's always a robot guy.
kurt metzger
He tried to kiss himself or something.
He's like, I love you.
joe rogan
That's what it looked like, Jamie.
That's exactly what it looked like.
kurt metzger
Now I can suck my own dick, finally.
joe rogan
That right there.
You just had it.
Bang.
So, that's what it looked like.
And then it came out, and its whole mouth opens up, and it bit her shoulder.
It, like, took a giant chunk out of her.
If I remember correctly, I'd be...
I was very scared.
kurt metzger
What is all that different lighting over it?
joe rogan
Dude, those...
I don't know.
That's a good question.
Those are some of my favorite movies.
kurt metzger
Yeah, no, I like it.
I just wish he showed the fucking engineer.
I don't like they space it out in other...
You know, extra movie.
And he has really something about somebody with like a space Judy.
Someone like that haircut that fucking fights aliens.
It's up to this last space Judy to fucking...
joe rogan
Rolling Stones are playing in the background somehow.
Is that what it was?
Yeah.
And that music?
Are we fucked now?
No, I wasn't playing the sound.
Oh, good.
It's, I mean, the series of movies, some of the best horror and science fiction movies of all time.
You gotta go back to the original one.
That original Alien holds up.
kurt metzger
Yeah, it's great.
joe rogan
Holds up.
That's a 1979 movie about aliens and space, and it fucking holds up.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
I mean, it's still, the technology looks goofy.
Like the little...
It's going off in the background.
kurt metzger
All their computers in a fucking older.
joe rogan
They don't know what they're doing.
kurt metzger
Nothing looks worse than like a 90s tech movie, like Hackers or something.
Like, ooh, is this a Pentium?
joe rogan
Back to the Future.
kurt metzger
Yeah, but what were they right about, Back to the Future?
joe rogan
They were probably right about a lot of shit, right?
kurt metzger
Wasn't Trump president in Back to the Future 2?
joe rogan
Was he?
kurt metzger
Am I wrong?
joe rogan
Imagine.
I think he was president of The Simpsons.
unidentified
The Simpsons predicted it, yes.
joe rogan
There's a great video about how accurate the Simpsons were about so many different things.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
And that Matt Groening must be some sort of a time traveler.
kurt metzger
I think he just said whatever the most hilarious thing he could think of was.
joe rogan
It turned out to be true.
13 Simpsons predictions that could not come true, but still could.
kurt metzger
All right, let's see.
joe rogan
Oh, that have not come true, but still could.
Ivanka 2028. Ivanka 2028 is probably 100% going to happen.
kurt metzger
If it said Melania, then I would go, oh, time travel.
joe rogan
Do you think people step up Melania and Michelle Obama together?
kurt metzger
Melania, the hottest first lady we've ever had?
unidentified
Woo!
joe rogan
She's for sure the hottest.
Any argument will start a fight.
Right?
Who's a close second to Melania Trump?
kurt metzger
I mean, it's not even fair to...
joe rogan
It's not fair.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
No, it's not fair.
But Melania and Michelle Obama together.
Unstoppable ticket.
kurt metzger
Michelle probably was the most...
joe rogan
Unite the parties.
kurt metzger
Wait, oh yeah, Laura Bush was a...
joe rogan
She was not bad.
kurt metzger
It was not bad.
joe rogan
Pretty lady.
Hillary Clinton when she was younger.
kurt metzger
Fucking Barbara Bush was like, it was like a legendary joke how unfuckable the first lady was.
The entire 90s, there was like something where a guy would punch Barbara Bush in the face full on.
Remember that naked gun?
joe rogan
Yeah, there were so many jokes about it.
kurt metzger
OJ would be falling down the stairs.
People loved it, dude.
joe rogan
There were so many jokes about Barbara Bush.
kurt metzger
Dude, she was like, she was legendarily ugly when I was a kid.
I understood she was the first lady, and also she was one of the ugliest first ladies.
It just came through over and over again on all media.
joe rogan
So this is all the first ladies?
Not all of them, it's just a picture of...
kurt metzger
Do they mock her on every format of whatever?
joe rogan
They did.
kurt metzger
She was declared ugly.
joe rogan
They did, it was like...
Yeah.
Nancy Reagan was always really good.
kurt metzger
Oh, Jackie O, though, was one of the first ones where you could see a bush in her thing.
joe rogan
Oh, really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, remember?
There was pictures of Jackie and Hustler.
You could see her bush?
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Yeah, Hustler.
joe rogan
They got a bunch of money off that.
kurt metzger
That's how Larry Flink got rich.
unidentified
Yeah.
Wow.
kurt metzger
Like, if it came out, like, fucking...
joe rogan
Really?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Why did I forget that?
jamie vernon
He spent a bunch of money on that house that he was going to make to get kicked out of in Ohio.
joe rogan
Really?
jamie vernon
Yeah, they thought it was going to be like a Playboy Hustler mansion, Playboy Mansion thing.
joe rogan
Oh!
unidentified
They're like, get out of here.
joe rogan
Well, he did open up some casinos.
He did.
Nancy Reagan used to get Ronald Reagan to listen to astrology.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
She had a White House astrologer.
They would run all the decisions by the astrologer.
kurt metzger
Do you believe in astrology?
unidentified
Of course.
kurt metzger
Do you do astrology?
joe rogan
Oh, every day.
unidentified
All day.
kurt metzger
I don't.
joe rogan
In fact, I'm doing it right now.
kurt metzger
I'm a Gemini and we're skeptics.
joe rogan
Oh, first ladies never married to presidents?
kurt metzger
Never married.
joe rogan
The other women?
Oh, the side pieces.
kurt metzger
Wait a minute, but they were still considered the first lady?
joe rogan
No, no, no.
This is just a trick.
kurt metzger
National First Lady's Library.
joe rogan
Turn that over, you son of a bitch.
kurt metzger
We are the society, the side piece society of...
It's like the sons and daughters of the revolution.
joe rogan
I can't wait for a woman to become president just so we can see what we call the guy.
kurt metzger
Is that not settled?
joe rogan
Unless she's a lesbian, which would be even better.
I hope that we find out that you have to love pussy to run the country.
Whether you love pussy and you have one, or you love pussy...
kurt metzger
That's how I would run if I was a lesbian.
Like, hey, we all know it's important.
You have to be willing to eat pussy.
joe rogan
We all love pussy.
kurt metzger
Wait, is this...
What am I looking for?
joe rogan
The weed.
The weed gotcha.
kurt metzger
I thought he was posting it on the screen.
joe rogan
The elation for your coronavirus test and then the weed together.
kurt metzger
Can I tell you something?
An AIDS test was not as stressful.
joe rogan
Really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I didn't feel as...
unidentified
It's, um...
joe rogan
It's probably...
kurt metzger
It's just because it was a long car ride, so I'm just like, oh shit.
joe rogan
It's probably the most stress-inducing thing any of us have had to go through except for the people that have been to war or first responders or people that have experienced real violence.
kurt metzger
I find it strangely calming because it's so beyond my control.
joe rogan
It's so beyond.
unidentified
Yeah.
kurt metzger
You had Barry Crimmins on here one time, didn't you?
joe rogan
Sure, yeah.
kurt metzger
So we were on a tour together.
We almost died in this car accident.
joe rogan
Really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, the car we were in, we were on black ice.
joe rogan
Who was driving?
unidentified
This dude, I won't say his name, but anyway, he was fucking...
kurt metzger
So he's driving.
I'm in the passenger seat.
Barry is behind the driver.
And we were going about 65 on the highway, which wouldn't be too bad except it's black ice because it's winter.
And he was trying to pass this tractor trailer.
So as we're going, the car starts wobbling.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
kurt metzger
So I remember I said, what the fuck, three times?
This is how much time there was.
I didn't, like, duck or anything because I saw the trailer.
We just started—my side started going under the fucking— Oh, my God.
So I just remember going, well, I guess I'm dead.
And then at the very last second, it spun because it was wobbling.
And then the back where no one was sitting, that got grabbed and the window blew in.
And then we spun into the middle of the highway.
It was crazy, dude.
But afterwards, I remember that me and Barry, I felt like high.
joe rogan
I remember you telling me the story.
kurt metzger
The driver was weeping, by the way.
I felt high.
And the reason was, it was so out of my control.
I mean, it was so...
Because I was definitely sure my head was going to come off.
I just went like that.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
kurt metzger
And it felt so out of my hands.
I was like, oh.
It felt like a...
I thought I was going to die all kinds of times, but usually it was like, you know, I mixed some kind of drugs or I did something where, you know...
joe rogan
It made sense.
kurt metzger
So some...
I think I was trained from, you know, end of the world kind of feelings since birth from being in that day.
And I think I just have them where it relaxes me more than...
joe rogan
What would they tell you the end of the world would be?
kurt metzger
You know, whatever everybody says.
What do you mean?
joe rogan
Like when you say it was an end of the world cult.
What did they think?
kurt metzger
Oh, a doomsday cult.
That God's revelation is going to happen in Armageddon.
God's going to destroy the wicked system of things.
It has an appeal to it.
joe rogan
Oh, for sure.
kurt metzger
And then set up a reasonable...
joe rogan
That the righteous will survive.
Of course.
kurt metzger
Well, Jehovah's Witnesses, some people live on earth in a Garden of Eden restored paradise.
Have you ever seen the literature?
They show that.
I believe it's paintings of Hawaii.
joe rogan
No.
kurt metzger
You ever go to Hawaii?
It's beautiful.
It's gorgeous.
joe rogan
That's what their heaven is.
Maybe that's the moon.
kurt metzger
That's what the guy painting it in the things I saw.
When I finally went to Hawaii, I was like, oh, that's what I thought of paradise my entire life of, you know, the Garden of Eden.
Hawaii looks like that.
joe rogan
Imagine if Hawaii was all that was left.
kurt metzger
Like, there's enough people.
And that's a volcano.
joe rogan
There's enough people.
But imagine if that's it.
kurt metzger
Well, there'd be a lot of meth, I'll tell you that.
joe rogan
How many people, like, Hawaii is supposedly, I think, the spot in the world that's the furthest away from other spots.
Like, it is completely isolated in the middle of the ocean.
kurt metzger
It's like the Earth's vagina.
It's lush.
joe rogan
It's gorgeous, right?
It's amazing.
But I think it's also five hours by plane to anywhere.
I think the closest you can get is Guam or places like that, but it's really isolating.
kurt metzger
It shocked me.
I got there at night when I went to Kauai, which I heard is the good one to go to.
joe rogan
Kauai's awesome.
I've never been, but it's gorgeous.
kurt metzger
It was pitch black when I got there at night, and then I woke up and it looked like fucking...
Jurassic Park.
It was crazy.
joe rogan
That's where they filmed Jurassic Park.
kurt metzger
I was on a cliff.
It was like every kind of biome in one spot.
joe rogan
It's magic.
At least from the photos.
kurt metzger
I've been to Maui.
I've been to the Big Island.
Five days is perfect.
joe rogan
Do you go crazy after that?
kurt metzger
Dude, it would become a beautiful hell that your only joy in life besides methamphetamine would be showing new people that come to the island.
The movie, weren't they on Hawaii in the show Lost?
They're desperately trying to get out.
joe rogan
Well, they're one on an island like Hawaii.
kurt metzger
But they filmed it, I thought, in Hawaii.
joe rogan
Oh yeah, for sure they did, right?
kurt metzger
Yeah, and you're ready to go after, unless like, it was like a place you go after you die, it felt like.
joe rogan
Well, some people go to like Maui, and they live there.
kurt metzger
I've seen Dog the Bounty Hunter, I know.
Oh, I know.
joe rogan
Steven Tyler lives there.
kurt metzger
A bunch of you.
Pierce Brosnan lived up the block from where I stayed.
joe rogan
Did he really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, I think the climate kind of destroys property, so it's very expensive, the upkeep of owning a home there.
joe rogan
Dude, I was just reading about Malibu, how much beach Malibu's losing, and they're trying to do all these different things to try to save the beach.
kurt metzger
Like a beach comb over from another beach.
joe rogan
They're doing...
kurt metzger
As they don't acknowledge there's a problem.
Much like I do with my hair for many years.
joe rogan
They're literally calling it beach Botox.
kurt metzger
Really?
joe rogan
Yes.
kurt metzger
Why?
Because it doesn't last.
joe rogan
It's like a little quick fix.
So they pour all this sand into this area and then the ocean swats it away.
kurt metzger
I thought they have a way to make artificial sand dunes that work.
joe rogan
They have a way to do some walls, but the thing about it is it affects other beaches.
So if you put up a beach wall over here, it's going to affect the beach of the people down there.
And so they're like, hey, fuck you.
You're going to ruin our beach because you want more beach.
Because there's only a certain amount of water.
The problem is the water is rising.
The water is starting to take over.
kurt metzger
So then everybody should have extra water.
joe rogan
Well, they're saying by 2100, it's going to move all the way through.
There's going to be none of those houses.
This is what the story was saying.
That by 2100, there'll be no more beach.
None of those houses will exist.
The beach will be in a totally different spot.
The water will get so high that it just starts taking over everything.
kurt metzger
No shit.
Yeah, man.
I'm telling you, China felt like going to the movie Blade Runner.
joe rogan
I bet it did.
I wouldn't go now.
It seems tensions are high now.
kurt metzger
Yeah, well, I was there before the 2016 election, just before it, and they were into Trump.
joe rogan
Oh, really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, because he's like a business.
That whole thing of your name on everything, Chinese people love that.
Like, they get him.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, I don't know now how it is, but they were all about him because he's a businessman.
He was successful.
He's a businessman.
That's how they fucking...
joe rogan
Well, he definitely...
kurt metzger
It's not commies, what I'm saying.
joe rogan
He definitely rubbed them the wrong way with this, right?
kurt metzger
Oh, with...
No, they don't even have a...
Dude, if the country of China goes, hey, that's racist, they're...
They're purely playing on American, like, dippy kind of shit.
Like, they don't have any feelings like that.
Do you just see what they're doing with black people there?
joe rogan
They're kicking them out now.
kurt metzger
They put it on them, you know, instead of the bat soup or whatever everybody said, they're like, oh, it's because it spreads because of black people.
joe rogan
Are they trying to say that it's because of black people?
Because they also said it was because of Americans.
kurt metzger
Yeah, they're like fucking Romulans do whatever whatever it takes to make a narrative the government controls like here It's a bunch of corporations pushing what they want.
They're the fucking guy the head guy the papers pushes Winnie the Pooh agenda I think they just passed a law saying that the Chinese guys can't go online and play video games with people in other countries Yeah, well, Russia has some laws like that, too, where you couldn't get certain American foods because of the fucking, you know, after they went to Crimea, there was like a...
joe rogan
Oh, an anti-American sentiment?
kurt metzger
But the government was like, yeah, America's alright.
I watched that interview you did with, what's his name?
joe rogan
Snowden.
kurt metzger
Yeah, it was interesting, but I thought it really stuck out about how it blows up Putin, because Putin could be failing if not for, same way Trump wins, if not for the constant, like, this guy's the devil and the boogeyman, and it gives them status.
You know how smoking commercials where they go, quit smoking, and they say they don't work because all it does is put the word smoking in your head.
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
That's what they've been doing for fucking five...
That makes sense.
Don't Trump, but all you hear is Trump.
joe rogan
Well, that was what Trump's play when running up to the election to say more outrageous shit.
They would Yeah, but they used that to show how bad Doing that on purpose.
kurt metzger
I think I think that's something he's done for many years.
joe rogan
But I think with them, they didn't even know what was going on until they were checkmated.
kurt metzger
Because they're fucking greedy.
joe rogan
They were making money off of it.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah, for sure.
Yeah, it's a great thing.
People want to see the dumb shit that he says.
They want to get outraged.
They tune into it.
kurt metzger
Well, also, I mean, maybe next time we'll crack down on comedy.
People want to hear someone not observe Stupid rules.
They want someone to ace Ventura, but their hand in your food plate and your monocle falls out.
So that used to be my job, but now my job is being an ally or some shit.
And Trump gets to do everybody's job of just saying whatever crazy shit he wants.
He gets to be Tracy Morgan now.
And Tracy Morgan has to watch it.
That's the system that we have.
joe rogan
That's a good way of putting it.
Nobody tells Tracy Morgan, stop saying crazy shit.
kurt metzger
He's the one guy who can't be stopped for not...
And by the way, why shouldn't he say crazy shit?
You could say the most reasonable shit in the world and somebody will...
The shit with you with Bernie where they're like...
He better...
What is he supposed to do?
Like throw away your...
Not even direct endorsement?
joe rogan
All he said is I'll probably vote for him.
kurt metzger
Yeah, like he was supposed to like denounce you.
I swear to God I read this.
unidentified
I know.
joe rogan
I have a huge bit about it now.
I almost don't want to go into it because I'm hoping that comedy will return.
kurt metzger
I'll be able to do this.
joe rogan
You gave me like 10 new minutes.
kurt metzger
You got to guard your precious bits.
joe rogan
No!
unidentified
You never know!
kurt metzger
In this COVID-19 to save the real bangers.
joe rogan
Are we going to really go back to comedy?
Like, what's a comedy club going to be like when it returns?
And when I asked you, when do you think we're going to...
Like, I was going to ask you.
Well, that's when it becomes a problem, right?
Because none of us fucking have an idea.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
unidentified
We're all...
kurt metzger
I got a podcast, so I guess that's my only...
Basically, I got a podcast.
I'm going to start farming tigers, is what I have going on.
I want my pussy handled.
Plenty of tigers, so I don't got to worry about getting pussy.
I'll get pussy.
joe rogan
That's the move, right?
If you have tigers, people will fuck you.
kurt metzger
See that guy, the fucking tiger guy?
unidentified
Yeah.
kurt metzger
And he does yoga?
He does yoga and tigers?
That guy, that guy fucks.
joe rogan
Oh, the guru guy?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
What does he call himself?
Bhagavang Jiga?
kurt metzger
Dude, any white guy calling themselves Bhagavita fucking...
Oh, God, that's hilarious.
joe rogan
What does it mean?
kurt metzger
How do you fall for that?
That blows my fucking mind.
joe rogan
Same way you fall for Manson, same way you become a social justice warrior.
Same shit.
People want to belong.
kurt metzger
Your mom kicked you out for having a pot pipe?
That's how.
joe rogan
That too.
There was an FBI raid at your house because you bought drugs in the parking lot of the fast food restaurant you worked at.
kurt metzger
Doc Antle.
unidentified
There he is.
Boggy Von Antle.
joe rogan
Boggy Von.
Look at the girls.
kurt metzger
Hey, Boggy Von.
I know.
joe rogan
Looking good, bro.
Congratulations to you.
He looks good in a tie.
Nice bow tie.
The beautiful thing about that show is that those are real people and this is real life.
And it's like, oh, that's there too.
kurt metzger
I kind of get why the Chinese are grinding up tigers now for dickpack.
I mean, obviously it works.
I don't even know why I was criticizing But you could keep the tiger alive and get the same pussy.
joe rogan
That's all I'm saying.
That's what it is.
Yeah.
Do they have tiger bones or something like that?
Is that one of their ailments?
What do they use tigers for?
kurt metzger
You've heard the Chairman Mao, his old sayings of...
His physician wrote a book after he died.
joe rogan
No, what did he say?
kurt metzger
He was filthy.
He had syphilis.
He wouldn't brush his teeth.
And the doctor was like, listen, you've got to brush your teeth.
And I swear he got to go, does the tiger brush his teeth?
What do you even have to say?
That's like saying, this is New Orleans.
joe rogan
This is Las Vegas, Nevada.
kurt metzger
This is not China.
joe rogan
Traditional Chinese medicine, tiger bones are believed to help cure conditions like rheumatism and arthritis, along with erectile dysfunction.
Rhino horns.
kurt metzger
Oh my god, you put a rhino horn in your ass, you rub some tiger powder on your fucking balls.
joe rogan
And you're ready to go, baby!
Yeah, back when they all had syphilis and they just died of it, and it rotted their skin out, their teeth would fall out.
kurt metzger
That's so fucking...
You see the Johnny Depp movie where he gets the nose fall off syphilis?
joe rogan
Oh, what was that movie?
kurt metzger
The Libertine.
joe rogan
No.
kurt metzger
Yeah, it's really like...
joe rogan
No, I didn't see that one.
kurt metzger
I don't really kind of remember it, but I know at the end he's all fucking syphilitic, and it looks like...
He looks like a Dead Men Tell No Tales, Pirates of the Caribbean ghost.
joe rogan
Oh, God.
kurt metzger
But that was a common thing, because you would just get syphilit.
joe rogan
Look at his eyeball, too.
He's got a dead eye.
He's got makeup on, the wig.
That's how people lived.
Imagine what they stunk like back then.
kurt metzger
I know.
That's a thing I have.
joe rogan
Rotting, syphilitic.
With a wig on, sweating under the wig, makeup, cake skin, and ugh.
kurt metzger
Just imagine.
joe rogan
No soap.
kurt metzger
A pair of boots from...
joe rogan
And you've got open sores probably all over the place because of the syphilis.
If you lost your nose, it's not all you're losing.
You've got holes all over your fucking body.
kurt metzger
Is that right?
You get like new nose holes besides...
joe rogan
Not just nose holes, dude.
Go to syphilis wounds, like syphilis autopsy, your fucking head falls.
kurt metzger
Hey, more holes to fuck, or is that syphilis talk?
joe rogan
No, no, no, not like that.
Not like full holes.
kurt metzger
No, I know.
joe rogan
Like holes in your skin, like where you could see your skull.
kurt metzger
I know.
It was making me feel gross, and I wanted to change this.
Like, yes.
Is it really like that?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Do you know that that's where the whole powdered wig thing came from?
kurt metzger
No.
joe rogan
Yeah, it came from people that had syphilis.
Particularly two, I believe there was French gentlemen who were royalty that were young and they contracted syphilis and their hair fell out and they started wearing wigs.
Look at that guy's face.
Holy shit.
Look on that one.
That's what happens to your face in syphilis.
kurt metzger
Whose pussy did he eat?
joe rogan
Oh my god.
He looks like a little kid too.
His lips are gone, his nose is gone.
kurt metzger
How would that be?
joe rogan
It just rots your skin out and leaves holes in your head.
kurt metzger
Oh my god, dude.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Horrendous.
kurt metzger
A powder wig's not gonna fix that.
joe rogan
No, so what happened?
Look, you get holes in your skin and shit.
Look at that guy's head.
kurt metzger
Oh, no, put a wig on.
Look at that.
joe rogan
Look at that shit.
kurt metzger
Get your wig.
I take it back.
joe rogan
Burning through his fucking head into his brain.
kurt metzger
A nice comfortable wig on top of that.
That must feel fucking amazing.
joe rogan
These wealthy guys were like the shit.
What does it say?
Syphilis?
What is it?
unidentified
All these men have it.
kurt metzger
I believe syphilis, too.
By the way, syphilis or gonorrhea, that came from the New World.
joe rogan
Did it?
kurt metzger
You know how, like, their flu that killed all the fucking...
Well, they brought back, uh...
unidentified
Really?
kurt metzger
Yeah, either gonorrhea or syphilis.
joe rogan
So it came from Native Americans?
kurt metzger
Montezuma's Revenge.
joe rogan
Oh, wow.
Is that true?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
Holy shit.
I mean, I assume.
joe rogan
That's what killed Al Capone, too, right?
Didn't it?
kurt metzger
They say that, but there's a new movie coming out with Bane in it.
What's his name?
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
Ed Hardy.
kurt metzger
And he plays a syphilitic...
No, Tom Hardy.
joe rogan
Ed Hardy said the same shit.
unidentified
Have you seen the Ed Hardy...
joe rogan
Ed Hardy?
I love Tom Hardy.
How dare you?
kurt metzger
Yeah, Tom Hardy's gonna play as syphilitic, but this movie seems to be about that he was faking it.
joe rogan
Oh!
kurt metzger
But I don't know.
joe rogan
Who fucking knows?
When someone's dead for 50 years, you can make up shit about them.
kurt metzger
Yeah, stuff gets...
joe rogan
It's like, who cares?
Start making up what happened.
kurt metzger
It sounded like he had...
I mean, I could believe he probably had syphilis.
joe rogan
Of course he had syphilis.
He probably had everything.
kurt metzger
And I don't think he was getting enough meth.
At least JFK and Hitler were getting their meth.
joe rogan
Yeah, cocaine injections and testosterone shots.
What is this, the trailer?
Yeah, it's Neil Brandon.
kurt metzger
Neil Brandon!
joe rogan
Look at Neil Brandon!
Al Capone.
Based on true events.
But you could just say that based on true events.
You could kind of fucking do whatever you want.
kurt metzger
Yeah, true.
Do you just mean events?
joe rogan
Yeah, just something happened.
kurt metzger
That's what events are, things that happened.
joe rogan
There was a guy who lived in the house and everything else was made up.
kurt metzger
Yeah, Al Capone was a guy.
joe rogan
So the big wig thing came from these guys who were rich guys who wore these powdered wigs.
kurt metzger
That's what a big wig is.
joe rogan
Yeah, and then other people wanted to copy them.
And so it became fashion.
A lot of them had syphilis.
And the more expensive your wig would be, the bigger it would be.
So that's why those guys were called big wigs.
No, because you'd have a lot of hair in it.
kurt metzger
You gotta really distract from the rest of the part down here.
joe rogan
You're falling apart.
Legitimately.
kurt metzger
Oh my god, dude.
joe rogan
And then they were still fucking.
Hoping their dick wouldn't rot off, but still fucking.
kurt metzger
I think a lot of times the dick would rot off, wouldn't it?
joe rogan
That's what they looked like.
kurt metzger
People just turned into cheese gradually back then?
joe rogan
Yeah, they just had holes in their face.
That guy has a hole in his face.
kurt metzger
Aw, dude.
joe rogan
Look, the painter made him flattering, right?
kurt metzger
That's the worst fucking part!
joe rogan
Yeah, look at that hole in his head.
That is a hole, right?
kurt metzger
He's underselling.
Make the hole.
Idealize the hole in my face.
joe rogan
That's not a mole, right?
kurt metzger
No.
unidentified
It's huge.
joe rogan
Pull it up.
Make it larger.
So this guy has a syphilitic hole.
Is that a word?
kurt metzger
Yeah, syphilitic.
joe rogan
Hole in his face.
And other than that, it looks great.
With his rosy lips.
Looks like he's got some lipstick on.
Nice outfit.
kurt metzger
That's how foundation and...
joe rogan
If you were a royalty back then, you probably fucked all the peasants.
kurt metzger
Right?
No, you would fuck a cousin and then whoever attends to your cousin in the castle.
joe rogan
Well, you would breed with a cousin, but you'd probably fuck a bunch of people on the sneak tip too, right?
kurt metzger
Yeah, probably.
joe rogan
Yeah, you're a royal, and you've got a hole in your face, and you know how much time, right?
How much time do you think you've got left when you can see your teeth on the side?
kurt metzger
Well, that's what Chairman Mao did.
He fucking stepped up his...
joe rogan
Stepped up his horn?
kurt metzger
The guy told him he was sterile, and Chairman Mao took it to mean erectile dysfunction, but he just meant, no, I meant you can't have kids.
He goes, oh, I'm sterile, am I? And he just spread a whole bunch of...
And the girls were proud of it.
They would say, I caught the fucking...
joe rogan
I caught syphilis from Chairman Mao.
kurt metzger
Yeah, because that's a fucking cult and a half.
Yeah.
Now that to your mom's house shirt.
joe rogan
I got syphilis from Chairman now.
Have a hoe with like half her face hanging out.
kurt metzger
Yeah, dude.
It's crazy, the details.
joe rogan
Can you imagine that they were proud?
Is that real?
kurt metzger
Like, I'm proud I lost my lips.
Listen, didn't the chick from Smallville get a brand of some guy from like a multi-level, not even a cult, like a multi-level marketing seminar?
She's like, oh yeah, no, brand my ass.
joe rogan
Right.
Right, it was like that vitamin company.
kurt metzger
That guy did that without any tigers.
He did that completely tiger-free.
joe rogan
How did that guy do that?
kurt metzger
He got women to be his tigers.
They would go out and get other women.
I make them feel comfortable.
joe rogan
What do you think?
Was there acid involved?
Was there any kind of drugs involved?
kurt metzger
No, just group manipulation.
joe rogan
That's it?
kurt metzger
Yeah.
Acid, that's why it's so stupid, those experiments, because I feel like somebody could have told you that.
That's just like a seasoning on top of something that's already there.
Right.
There's not a drug that puts a thing there that wasn't there.
It lets something out that was in there, you know?
I don't know if you're right.
joe rogan
I don't know if you're right about acid.
kurt metzger
Religion gets to who you are.
If something you're devoted, it's something that gets to who you are.
joe rogan
I'm sure.
kurt metzger
That's why people can't leave because that would be like I wouldn't exist anymore.
Because this is what I am.
joe rogan
I'm sure that's true without any acid and without drugs.
But I do think that they showed that you can do things to people if you get them daily acid and manipulate them.
I think it was a pretty sophisticated...
kurt metzger
Yeah, I'm sure you can disorient people and fucking...
joe rogan
Well, they even thought they're pretty sure that they were able to get people to do things.
Like, get people to commit murder, get people to do things that would never do those things.
kurt metzger
I mean, well, I'm sure that it doesn't help.
I just don't, like, Ted Kaczynski, like, I can see, that looks like something getting out of hand.
Like, our acid experiment created a thing we didn't anticipate.
Not that that was the end goal.
joe rogan
Right, right, right.
I agree with you.
Yeah, I think with Kaczynski, what happened was he just made sense, but he made sense in a way that people were like, yeah, but you don't blow up the guy who's making the circuit boards.
kurt metzger
No, that's the issue.
It's just like, hey, I don't get why...
Okay, great, the trains run on time, but why would you have to kill 6 million Jews?
Like, how does one correlate to the next?
joe rogan
Right.
kurt metzger
You know, like, that's why I said it seems like it came from the future.
So, you're like, that's exactly what's going on right now.
And he knew ahead of time.
joe rogan
Well, you've got to think, you've got a brilliant guy, and then you dose him up with acid at Harvard.
unidentified
Right.
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
So he probably thinks, hey, I made it to Harvard.
kurt metzger
He's all scrambled up, and he's still smart, but it's all, like, faulty.
joe rogan
What was it, A Brilliant Mind, that movie?
kurt metzger
Yeah, right.
joe rogan
Yeah, Russell Crowe, remember?
kurt metzger
Was it that brilliant for him to figure out to go hit on the ugly chick, so the hot chick...
He won a fucking Nobel Prize for that.
joe rogan
I don't think that was the point.
kurt metzger
Hit on the 7 over the 10 was his big...
joe rogan
Remember when he went crazy?
kurt metzger
In the movie, yeah.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Well, I think that if you just gave him acid, he probably would have gone crazy too.
unidentified
I think there's a lot of people...
kurt metzger
Well, they say that acid does that if you have mental...
It can definitely get to a...
joe rogan
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
You can shake that shit loose.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
joe rogan
So can pot.
kurt metzger
Isn't that what the guy from the Beach Boys said happened?
Because he smoked so much pot?
joe rogan
Which one?
The one that hung out with the Mansons?
Because one of the Beach Boys, Brian Wilson, he hung out with the Mansons.
He's in the book.
A lot.
He's a lot in that book.
kurt metzger
But he had a guru who was his own personal NXIVM guy for a while.
And he said he smoked pot and wouldn't come out of his house.
joe rogan
I'm not surprised.
kurt metzger
Yeah, he blamed marijuana.
But yeah, marijuana is not like a...
A panacea of medicine for all your problems.
joe rogan
Well, not only that, marijuana can fuck you up if you're not ready for it.
kurt metzger
It can, especially now.
I don't know.
I like to find good mids again.
joe rogan
You don't want to get too deep sometimes.
I think in this podcast, there was many times where I don't know what we were talking about.
kurt metzger
Yeah, because I smoked a fucking blunt.
By the way, it was to get at that tobacco in the leaf.
joe rogan
Of course.
You want it.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
I was like, why don't I hit this bunny?
That delicious tobacco.
joe rogan
That sweet, sweet nicotine.
kurt metzger
Soothing me and celebrating no COVID-19.
joe rogan
Yeah.
How worried about you are you?
How worried about all this are you?
Is it something you get anxiety over?
Are you really just relaxed?
kurt metzger
I mean, I need those road dates to pay my rent, so that's worrying.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
But I'm not worried like the end of the world.
I mean, I just don't even have that.
joe rogan
I wonder what's going to happen in terms of the restructuring of society when things bounce back.
kurt metzger
It's going to be like China, dude.
It'll be just like China.
A bunch of people.
It'll look like Naruto.
Everybody's got a mask on like everybody's a ninja.
That's why I saw a bunch of people in masks.
It looked like Blade Runner, kind of.
It's just going to be like that.
joe rogan
I'm worried about that.
unidentified
That's not going to be good for us.
kurt metzger
Well, I mean, hopefully it helps with this whole COVID virus.
joe rogan
I hope it does help.
I hope there's something better even.
I hope there's some sort of medication comes out of this.
kurt metzger
Well, at a certain point, it'll be like...
joe rogan
Like a Tamiflu.
kurt metzger
If it doesn't deliver on the amount of deaths that it's promised, then people, that's what people will be like, all right, come on.
joe rogan
Yeah.
No, I think you're right.
Yeah, I just wonder.
I wonder how long that's going to take.
Like, seeing how Vegas wants to reopen, and then Anderson Cooper talking about that lady.
kurt metzger
Do you see their ads where they're like, hey, listen, Vegas, don't even worry about Vegas.
Right now you just quarantined.
Vegas is still here.
They're still advertising.
Like, don't forget about Vegas.
joe rogan
I saw an ad like that for a car.
They just showed an empty road.
Don't even worry about driving.
Stay home.
Dodge.
kurt metzger
I forget what it was.
I despise ad people.
Like, whoever the Don Drapers are.
joe rogan
The same guy that made that Gillette ad?
kurt metzger
No, it was a Czech.
It was an Australian, like...
joe rogan
Oh, really?
kurt metzger
There's a whole new, like, crop of, like, young-ish, you know, kind of, like, feminist drivel.
But it's, like, in ads.
It's, like, you know...
joe rogan
Woke ads?
kurt metzger
Yeah, but that's how you know woke was going.
Because once it's commodified, like, hey, kids, you're woke, right?
We're a corporation.
Like, now that corporations had it, it's been dead for a fucking...
joe rogan
Right.
It's corporate-created punk rock.
kurt metzger
Yeah, it's horrid.
That makes it gross.
Like, when it was some granola kid spouting, it was more hilarious.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
Remember, like, everything you hear about colleges, like, ah, those kids.
But they all, a lot of them came out in the real world and...
joe rogan
What's interesting to me about the thing, almost as much as the kids themselves, is the intelligent adults who should know better that want those kids to push the radical ideas because they thought of those kids as almost like the soldiers on the far left.
Throw them onto the beaches of Normandy.
kurt metzger
And they don't understand that they're the first ones to go.
The people that think like that, they have no idea they're more despised than anybody on the right.
They hate a fucking...
Jon Stewart-era liberal more than any?
I mean, they're calling them boomers.
Those are all Gen Xers.
They're not boomers, but that's how the disdain.
joe rogan
Yeah, and the ones that are really forcing compliance, they want to reshape the world.
They want to reshape the way people behave.
kurt metzger
I know people personally that are like good friends that are like, their feeling is like, I just want it to be like Biden.
Because it'll just, then they're going to calm down.
Like, no, they're not going to calm down because they got a little taste of power.
joe rogan
Yeah, they're going to want full socialism.
kurt metzger
It's kind of funny because a lot of them don't.
A lot of them are just like fucking silly upper middle class kind of twits that are pretending that they're fucking so, but they don't want the first thing about it.
Who's that guy that got the adpocalypse on fucking YouTube from Vox?
Remember that?
joe rogan
Yes, yeah.
kurt metzger
Like, that guy, he's a rich kid.
It comes out, he's a rich kid.
joe rogan
Yeah.
kurt metzger
So that's who does...
They're not really socialists.
They like the feeling.
They like the Che Guevara kind of t-shirt feeling they get.
unidentified
Yes.
kurt metzger
And then they also like the good life.
joe rogan
Yes.
kurt metzger
That's why it's all silly kind of people.
The people I know that spout that shit, most of them have money.
I've never...
I can't think of anybody not doing...
joe rogan
Because they don't have real problems, so they think everyone's a bigot.
kurt metzger
Imagine, I mean, imagine caring about fucking...
You see Joaquin Phoenix talking about dairy, like...
Can you just imagine bringing up milk or like charging on the stairs?
That's right.
I really knew Bernie was unfit to be president when they took his mic twice.
Two elections.
joe rogan
Oh, the Black Lives Matter people?
kurt metzger
First those girls took his mic, then two white girls.
You let few black girls do it, guess what?
Now white girls are going to do it.
Your president has to hold his mic.
joe rogan
Yeah, you can't let him take your mic.
kurt metzger
Oh, maybe it was something really important.
To stop milk.
joe rogan
Bro, how shit is his security?
kurt metzger
You think, I mean, holy shit.
joe rogan
How bad are they?
How bad is the security?
kurt metzger
He should have had an all-female, you know, like a slick motherfucker, I have a female defense force to fucking crack him in there, to talk about milk, to run on, like, Bernie, stop the dairy.
He's from fucking Vermont.
He's not going to stop the dairy.
Are you fucking high?
The land of cheese hippies?
That's, the dairy's going to be fine.
joe rogan
Listen, up in Vermont, man, you need that cheese just to stay alive in the winter.
kurt metzger
Just imagine giving a shit about milk like that.
joe rogan
Imagine thinking that you need to interrupt the president, a guy who you probably want to be president.
You've got to interrupt his campaign speech to get your ideas crossed.
kurt metzger
I feel like you didn't get enough vitamin D milk as a kid to help you be balanced.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
You've got to eat meat.
kurt metzger
Because they're topless.
By the way, don't do your message topless because I don't care what the message is.
I'm just looking at your tits now.
joe rogan
For sure.
kurt metzger
It's not helping your...
joe rogan
Yeah, if that's your argument about Derry, you might really just want everybody to see your tits.
kurt metzger
Yeah.
The older protester kept her shirt on.
joe rogan
Right.
Yeah.
kurt metzger
She probably didn't even know the one was doing tits.
Oh, we're doing tits great.
joe rogan
She was probably in the moment.
I just was thinking last night, maybe, I pulled my tits out to really make a point.
kurt metzger
She was like how Ari Shafir would do it if he was always have a reason to take your shirt off.
joe rogan
Yes.
kurt metzger
She Shafir'd it.
joe rogan
She Shafir'd it.
Dude, it's already 7 o'clock.
kurt metzger
Oh shit, really?
joe rogan
Yeah, we flew by.
kurt metzger
Well, we got very high.
joe rogan
We did get really high.
kurt metzger
That was tremendous, that blunt, dude.
joe rogan
I know.
This is Speedweed.
Shout out to Gino.
unidentified
Oh yeah.
joe rogan
I hope they make a comeback.
kurt metzger
Man, I miss that fucking...
That's why I was doing my podcast.
joe rogan
Yeah, well, you know...
We'll be, hopefully, be back in moving order soon.

I don't know.
But hopefully, everybody out there, thank you for listening.
kurt metzger

joe rogan

kurt metzger

If you can go on Kyle Dunnigan's Instagram, we're trying to make a sketch show out of it.

kurt metzger
If you go to Instagram, you know Kyle shit.
joe rogan
