Starting point is 00:00:00 You are listening to the Joe Rogan Experience Review podcast. We find little nuggets treasures, valuable pieces of gold in the Joe Rogan Experience podcast and pass them on to you, perhaps expand a little bit. We are not associated with Joe Rogan in any way. Think of us as the talking dead to Joe's walking dead. You are listening to the Joe Rogan Experience Review. What a bizarre thing we've created. Now with your hosts, Adam Thorn. Enjoy the show. Hey guys and welcome to another episode of the JRE review. This week, Rogan had basically Shane Gillis on the whole week.
Starting point is 00:00:43 He did. It was Shane Gillis standalone episode. Protect our parks with Shane Gillis and others. And then another one. So I don't know if I've ever heard of a week where Rogan had just one person on basically the whole week. But a fun week good times Join today by my buddy Pete who's gonna chime in and good day. I was a bit
Starting point is 00:01:13 Happy to be here. What's happening? That's great. It's good to have you. It's good to have you. Oh Appreciate it get into let's get into the world of Rogan for the week. I got all right So Shane Gillis has moved down to Austin now. So I imagine just going to be on Rogan a lot. Obviously he's one of the biggest comedians at the moment. People are absolutely loving Shane, not surprised. He's so good so talented so impressive
Starting point is 00:01:47 Fearless as people you can imagine. Oh, he's so funny dude. He's absolutely just one of the funniest people um And and yeah, he starts out by saying he's not a fan of Vikings. Don't know what to think about that That's a it's a bold statement. Really is. That they're overrated? Well, they're the coolest. I think he's actually just saying more like he's not a fan of glorifying the rape and murder part. I think. And how are there? Biggest that? There is grungy as any other medieval culture. I think, and how there- Bigots that? There is grungy as any other medieval culture, I think is what he's going for. Right. That they weren't really as like spectacular, maraudering, you know, terrifying.
Starting point is 00:02:37 They were just kind of like almost like swamp people. He might have a point, actually. The people of the Fjords, they just lived off little meager scripts of land and had to go raiding and trading to make their way. They had a population boom and the extra went out of Viking looking for people to steal, gold, other stuff. They're basically pirates. I do feel like they get a bit of a hard time with the whole raping and pillaging thing. It's it's almost
Starting point is 00:03:13 like when somebody says that, they're like, oh name a warring culture from the past that was raping and pillaging. Everyone's like, oh, well, the Vikings. Pretty sure they were all doing this. I like to say the Mongols, but the Vikings, they did a good job, honestly. They were ruthless rapists and pillagers. They went into like ruthless. Monasteries in France, monasteries just torn apart.
Starting point is 00:03:44 People that had no weapons weapons no will to fight no ability to fight had been living peacefully for a generation and then this is sale out on the harbor and ten minutes later they're getting rich many women just who cares they're doing it all doing it all yeah sat while you know you live in the cold long enough. It does something to you. Something to your brain. Those soft Frenchies.
Starting point is 00:04:12 The guys and the gals looked the same. Well, it was brutal for England too when they started to get over there. I mean, I think there was, it wasn't like tons of peace, but there was the kingdoms in England, multiple kings. And you know, they had their treaties and they weren't often at war in certain areas. And these guys are just like rowing up to their docks and wrecking things and leaving. Yeah, that's what made them so much like a monster in our minds or in their minds was they would come up out of nowhere indiscriminately stealing and marauding. They didn't have a lot of towns didn't have defenses to put up with that kind of attack.
Starting point is 00:04:59 So they were you know that element of that is why we, it's six in our mind. Yeah. Yeah, not good, dude. Living next to terrorists. It's pretty much, but they kind of like, they killed the whole population. They turned Iceland's hair red. They, um, they gave us, uh, I kind of, art. They brought metal working around that area.
Starting point is 00:05:25 They were, you know, once you disseminate your culture, you disseminate technology and they had a lot to... There's a lot behind that flow of technology. What ever happened to the Vikings? Did they just kind of like move everywhere, spread around and just kind of become a part of other cultures or did did like the English just go in and wreck them. They actually integrated wherever they went. They took over places and then they integrated like in Normandy they became French they spoke French and then I think was it 1066 the battle of Hastings
Starting point is 00:06:08 Yes, that was the Viking the King of the go the arrow in the eye. Yep So you know since 1066 the Vikings essentially I think that was the new rulers of England Okay, huh, so So that lineage comes from there. Well maybe that's why I'm like a bit a bit protective then. Well yeah it's your fan of pillaging. Only the pillaging. Calm down. I'm up still a gentle man. It's okay. We're the ones that only pillage. We do a proper consensual thrashing and pillaging. It's a little bit of pillaging. Well, maybe they are overrated.
Starting point is 00:06:52 I have to think about that a bit more. They're just easy to glamorize. That's probably what it means. Then they jump on over to UFC staff. Talk about the time Tony Ferguson was kicked in the face by Chandler, and then Joe had one of the best lines that you could ever say in front of Shane Gillis, which was describing Chandler's like how strong he is. He was like just a ball of muscle exploding on your face in Shane's all paws.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Joe's like, that sounded much gaiier than I planned. I was dying. Just a couple of twelve year olds. Yeah, that's like the worst thing you could say in front of Gilles. He was all over it. It's interesting to see too because when Shane first went on Rogan, it was right after I think he got fired from SNL before he was even on the show. So there was like a lot of talk around him just with that happening.
Starting point is 00:07:52 And it was fairly well known in the comedy circuits anyway, like he was already very popular and on the rise. But he was so nervous on Rogan. I mean, it's a big deal. You know, it's a big deal to a comic. And he didn't really know Rogan Rogan that well, but he was so nervous on Rogan. I mean, it's a big deal. You know, it's a big deal to a comic. And he didn't really know Rogan that well, but he was like trying to crack jokes, like it almost forcing it. And now he's been on so many times, he's really on the most popular Rogan's each time
Starting point is 00:08:18 he goes on, like the Protect Our Pucks are some of their biggest episodes. So funny. And he's so much more relaxed now, and it's just really interesting to see that difference in him. The much better. The progression, he seems so composed.
Starting point is 00:08:38 And I like that he just talks about history. Like, they're just talking about stuff that really like, they peaks their interest. Oh yeah, yeah, was Shane, Shane's a big history buff. He likes it. He knows a ton. He's a big fan. Yeah, yeah. He calls getting into liking history early on set Republicanism. I think I might have that. Yeah, this is so good. Like, just as you get old, you're just like watching World War Two shit all the time. You start wondering about the diversity of all these
Starting point is 00:09:11 commercials that start playing. Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, start speaking a little bit comfortable. Just growling. Oh, and Joe deletes his WhatsApp live on the app. Like, he got a phone call, one of those damn spam calls. and he's just like, yeah, you know what I'm deleting my WhatsApp Get rid of it. Yeah, see you later. I wonder if like the the WhatsApp Fricking stocks
Starting point is 00:09:38 Stock took a took a hit. Hopefully I guess it's owned it's owned by Facebook right?

Yeah, don't dabble Watch taken and then don't dabble What a great movie Liam Neeson. Yeah, come on. He is he is he is a particular set of acting skills For sure, and that's it. It's so good.
Starting point is 00:12:09 Family Guy did one of my favorite skits that is like a spoof of that scene from Taken. But he saw, I have a distinct lack of skills. And he's like, he's like, I will never find you. I won't even look for you. I won't even come for you As soon as we hang up I will have no building a kid contact with you again Dracano are It's truly amazing truly amazing what what go on oh no, no, you please All right, oh they took a little bit about how fucking dumb people are in their cars or in and around cars.
Starting point is 00:12:50 Joe is talking about one time somebody hit his car with a like a briefcase or something. And you know, you kind of see this. Like mostly it's the people in cars feel way braver than they or seem to act way braver than they should You know it'd just be like a little old guy or a some lady just like flips you off to your face Yeah, and you're just like in no other context or place would you even consider this? No like what is wrong with you? We're all equal playing playing field when we're behind these Thousand pound murderous weapons yeah and it kinda highlights like thank god
Starting point is 00:13:29 the you know you see some young girl do it to you just like in your face cream and flip it's like thank god you don't have more power physically or any other way you would be a complete tyrant in society if all it takes is for you to be in a car and for you to think that you can act like that, no value system, no value system and it's so important. I mean look we've all got mad behind the wheel, you know some of us still do often but you know I don't I don't feel too sorry for people that get cornered at a light and then have to like deal with the same interaction but in real life. Actually.
Starting point is 00:14:16 And now they realize, oh I'm fucked here, I fucked up. I think he was a lot of back peddling. Yeah, a lot of him and Han and rolling up your window and then not looking at the person who's right outside your window. Mm-hmm. I just get on your phone. I think he was talking about the how we're not designed being cities, how it's where humans are not, we're supposed to creatures but up to like 150. Like I think we've spoken about this topic before. But the, yeah, the human element in a city,
Starting point is 00:14:52 it becomes a rat in a cage. And you just stop being able to be a human. And I think he kind of lent into his time in Scotland when he was like, I just was relaxed. So much open space, freedom, the mountains. This is what humans should be- be living in. KILTS. Verdant planes.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Bagpipes. Harry cows. Everything you need. Harry women. People you can't understand. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,. I don't know what you're saying. I don't know what you're saying. What did you say?
Starting point is 00:15:28 That guy seems nice. I like him. I remember when I first went up to Scotland, I went to Edinburgh and beautiful place, incredible city. It is spectacular. There's something magical about Scotland. And I did notice immediately and I am English, but they were nicer. They were. They were generally more friendly. Could
Starting point is 00:15:52 I understand a great deal of what they were saying? Not for a few days. Not for a few days. I really pay attention. I bet you if you pints in those guys and they're just the nicest least understandable people you've ever met Oh, they went to this night club and You know this is like early 2000 so they're still like the good stuff like good good clubs existed you know trance and that whole era and We go into this one club with at the bar with drinking people are chatting with us and because it's noisy in there Anyway, we're like we're understanding less than nothing from them But they're loving us. They're having a great time with us
Starting point is 00:16:32 They're like wanting to just hang out and that's awesome and all of a sudden the like the techno version of the Braveheart song came on Oh, no, and it's all the Scottish people shouting for you to them and it was so much fun. That's unbelievable. It was the best thing I ever experienced. And nobody tried to kill me and I was English, which is good. During that song, you'd think that you're allowed to at least punch one British person, but they didn't even try. Now turn to your closest Englishman and knock him out.
Starting point is 00:17:08 They didn't. It's part of like a four square there. Yeah, it's so fun. Have you ever been to Scotland? I have not been over to my fatherland. That's where my people hail from. But I've not been- I gotta get over that thing. I'm fixing. I gotta get you over that. Got to. You just come over one time when I go to England maybe that'd be the best yeah That would be a great way. I'll just leave off for like a weekend with all over there and I come back all half blue and And a full tartan kil't Only wearing kilts from that moment for a sheep under one eye scent Mm-hmm, okay. yeah, I can make a...
Starting point is 00:17:47 I gotta stay warm. I can mess with that. Be great. Do you think this will get it set up? Do you think there's anything to genetic or blood memory? Is that a deal? What do you mean by that?
Starting point is 00:17:59 Like, you'll get back there and all of a sudden you're just like, this feels like home. Something like that. Yeah. Hmm. Have you ever heard of that term? No, I haven't. But I'll tell you what would make sense if most of your ancestry was for, I mean,
Starting point is 00:18:18 you know, often when I meet Americans that like, yeah, I'm half Irish, half Italian. I think that once you start mixing a lot in, even if there was some sort of genetic memory, it would be kind of... Deluded maybe? Yeah, somewhat diluted, but let's say, you know, the majority of your ancestry is like English, Irish, Scotland. There might be something to getting back to that land, you know, like the humidity or the amount of rain, maybe just the amount of sunlight or even some of the food that is very common. Maybe that would just feel very... Your bones just... Maybe your feet
Starting point is 00:19:02 were meant for walking on Heather on those on those foggy moors and you just take those shoes off and you just connect to the land and you just want to have sex with the sheep or something. You know, just spitball spitball. Everything is just like that kind of damp and you just like that's that's that's where I was supposed to be. That's properly moldy in your mind. I'm a damp guy But yeah, there might be some bog person it would be very interesting That would be it would be fascinating if that was the case But it only really showed itself through alcohol. Okay, it's like you take like some people that are Russian ancestry but they grew up in America and then they just find themselves drawn to vodka. No, no, don't know why. They're just like
Starting point is 00:19:52 into it. I have to say I believe that there is something like this genetic memory and blood, his blood memory. And maybe all I know is a belief. It would make sense. I mean, if nobody told me anything and I just live kind of feral in New Mexico where I went to high school and where we met, I mean, it would be pretty clear to me for lots of reasons that I didn't come from that land. Like, um, as white as you can be. So I'd be constantly sunburnt and I'm like, well that's not working out. Nearly a foot taller than everybody you meet.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Yeah, super dry. Always dry, everything's dry. His skin is just cracking. Crisp enough. I'm like, I don't, I think I'm more of like a, uh, a, a, a, an ice cave person maybe. Yeah. There, there, there will be some clues in there. Oh yeah. I'm more of like an ice cave person maybe. Yeah. There will be some clues in there.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Oh yeah, there are clues. There'll be some clues. I mean, that's why it's kind of rough. People that are very dark living in northern hemispheres, like black people that live in England or Canada, you know. Though I think it gets pretty sunny in Canada actually. It's just cold. One or two months a year. But it's not really sunny much at all in England. So if you have darker complexion, your ability to kind of absorb the required amount of sunlight that you need for like good vitamin D levels is not good.
Starting point is 00:21:30 So that's just one example of something that you would have to heavily supplement to stay quite healthy, and I'm sure there are other things, right? Probably in the same way when I was living in Mexico, it's not just like, oh yeah, I need a lot of sunscreen Otherwise, I just fry, but there's probably other things that are happening Totally. You know, if we knew more I could like adjust to Because of that, you know getting a little too much of the Vatim D and the other other things that are said the size as well No doubt actually maybe that's a yeah, or just or just a lot of damage, you know like even if I'm not getting sunburn
Starting point is 00:22:11 It probably even short exposure to the dry and Very, you know intense UV there was probably not good for me you know, intense UV there was probably not good for me. Because yeah, we just get fried. I remember one time in high school, I can't, what was it? I think I was actually like trying to sunbathe to like get a bit of a tan so I could look cooler.
Starting point is 00:22:39 You know, you're trying everything in high school to just, you know, look a bit better. And I didn't pay attention how long I was out there and I went a kind of red that was like literally lobster red. It was, it looked like worse than bad. Did you peel? It's the kind of sunburn that when somebody looks at you, they're just like, what, you need to go.
Starting point is 00:23:04 It didn't blister, it didn't do anything weird, it just went a type of red that is like somebody's been slapping your chest for like half an hour. I mean, you didn't blister or peel? No. I think it did, yeah, it did peel eventually, but no blistering, no. Just went like the most absurd red color and I was like, holy shit, I need to kind of, well, because I'd only ever let out in the sun probably, you know, when I went on vacation to like France, northern France, maybe I'd done it a few times in England, but it's just not that bright there. So I was kind of using the same time frames and no,
Starting point is 00:23:42 I couldn't do that in New Mexico. I just get fried. You're not a hot guy either. You really, you don't like to wear those things. No, I love them. Blogs my vision from like, um, eagle attacks. Okay. I gotta be alert at all times.
Starting point is 00:24:01 I gotta be in a sea up. I'll be in Owl. No, you don't need a hat at night. I like him. I'm a cowboy hat guy. You do like, yeah. The bigger the better. You do like Indiana Jones looking.
Starting point is 00:24:16 You have that homage looking hat when you came stayed out, yeah. I like a nice, nice, nice, cool hat. It's part of the western, it's part of being an American, part of the west. It's a badge. I almost wear it more when I'm not here than when I am here. Oh, it's interesting. It's interesting.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Well, you can move out to Tennessee, we get your cowboy hat. Alrighty, hell, why not? There there we go? Yeah big belt buckle So where is a gillus from he's a he's a Philly guy, right he moved there and he's 28 Okay, but and he wraps it But his people hail from Ireland. He's a bog person He's a bog, but you can kind of tell yeah you can tell he has that shape potatoe
Starting point is 00:25:09 Yeah, like he's absorbed some bog Bit of a damp smell about him musty Like he's been sat in a bog for a while just taking it all in before that I'm not sure and he's it Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. But yeah, he definitely has that like Philly shit token energy, you know, or just PA maybe. Maybe it's just Pennsylvania shit token.
Starting point is 00:25:37 He said his family has a place in the Polkinoes. And I went there in the summer to the Polkinoes. One of my buddies has a cousin lives out there, had like a little lake house and a beautiful house too. And it wasn't even that expensive. I mean, it's not cheap, it was like 300 grand. But you know, it's before the big inflation thing of like COVID in the few years before it.
Starting point is 00:26:03 So great deal. I mean, it's worth so much more now but it like of course he has a regular job you know what I mean yeah it's like he doesn't make it you know astronomical amounts of money you just bought the right time beautiful place Polcanoes is a really cool spot it was very cool out there in the summer yeah yeah I guess he's been in Pennsylvania for most his early life. He was born in mechanicsburg. How American is that?
Starting point is 00:26:28 Oh yeah, it looks like a mechanic. Mechanicsburg. Come on. He could be one. Mechanics? I bet you he has some blood memory of just fixing a Chevy big block, 454. No doubt. That's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:26:44 No doubt. Well, Joe's got him him working out which is great to see. You know he's a tank of a man so he should work out and he drinks enough bud light to kill the average person so that should offset. Even the strongest transgender bodybuilder mind. He's got. He's got a lot. That's it. And he's getting into some cold plunges. I like, I like the Joe has this like these influences, you know, that are so positive for these comedians to kind of get behind. And, you know, ultimately extending their lives and making it better quality. 100%.
Starting point is 00:27:25 I mean, it's so easy to just be a comedian that just does the party thing, especially once you start getting big. If you've seen Burt Kraisher, how much weight he's lost? He looks... But it's the comedian, you know Burt? Yeah, the monster, right? No, the machine.
Starting point is 00:27:40 No, the machine. The machine. Yep. He was hefty, looking unwell, but now he has that kind of like, he almost has like an ultra runner's vibe going on. Lean, he's getting lean. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Yeah, I think there's more to the story than what we're being told. I think he may have gone in for like an annual health checkup and all the sirens went off. Hopefully then, let me see. If that's what it takes, that's what it takes. Yeah, yeah, sometimes it's a shame that it has to get there, but you know, we often all get to a point where we need to kick in the ass
Starting point is 00:28:25 before we're like, ooh, gotta make a change. Yeah. I am definitely a stick versus carrot kind of person. Like, that those two ways to motivate people, you can dangle a carrot or hit him with a stick. Hit me with a carrot, I say does hit me with a carrot. He says, wacky with a stick a carrot right up his butt. And then he's like, all right, I don't know what part of that whole thing this is, but I'm making some changes.
Starting point is 00:28:52 What do the gym this needs to happen again? It's a fun party. Like this is, this is how vegans do it. I'm not into it. All amony. Yeah. And then they eat them. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Hmm. Wait, you got to, you got to wash your vegetables, Pete. That's not how you take in five vegetables a day. Might be the easiest way. It's the only way I'm doing it. From now on, let's get in there. What, what else about Shane? Is your favorite? Oh, well, they talked about the gladiator wars. Did you know about this? Oh, well they talked about the Gladiator
Starting point is 00:29:25 Wars. Did you know about this? Oh, this is a little bit of a hater. Barticus! Yeah, I figured you would know something about it. And like also what if this is true, what was it like a bunch of the Gladiators escape? Yeah, 70. Or something like that, yeah. That right. And then they built their own little militia. And then they basically turned on select armies of Rome and started kicking their ass. And I'm like, we don't have a movie about this. Hello, starring Russell Crowe. Spartacus. Spartacus. With, with actually, Kurt Russell's dad started as Spartacus in the 70s and it was about that. Yeah, I am Spartacus. No, I'm Spartacus. It's a Yeah, it's an incredible story. I think there's been a couple movies. I think it was in Rome the one in the acclaimed HBO
Starting point is 00:30:24 Many series the acclaimed HBO mini series. It has, it's a good show. That's a good show. I need to watch it. Yeah, I need to watch it. Spartacus escaped with smother gladiators. They're, of course, ex-military criminals or who were just regular criminals picked for their physiques,
Starting point is 00:30:44 trained to fight to the death in Coliseum's for the enjoyment of the masses and the rulers. They escaped, they headed the hills, and before you know it, word gets out, and slaves and criminals and poor people in their thousands flock to them. So they accrue like hundreds of thousands of people. Hangers on some fighting age prostitutes, old poor people, old women, orphans, and they pick and train fighting age people to fend off the people that are trying to put this down a Slaverbellion Slay slave or it's amazing slave or billions in this period of time were
Starting point is 00:31:31 feared like as much as the plague that they were Romans constantly lived in fear of their slaves rebelling against them Right, that's why Sparta was Hampered because they enslaved the whole population that was next to them. They enslaved people that looked just like them, spoke the same language, and they did whole sail slavery, and they couldn't leave because they were afraid of their slaves would rise up in revolt because they treated them very poorly. But Sparticus is a endearing tale.
Starting point is 00:32:06 I would recommend anybody looking at that. That is awesome. But they eventually got them and all those people and they crucified them. And they lie in a road for hundreds of miles with their bodies. Oh, that's what they did. And that's because they feared their slave revolt so much that was their... Their existential crisis was their slaves revolting. Wow. Well, you know, and it's interesting too because like...
Starting point is 00:32:43 Think of the control governments have over us today like they have guns and armies and all this technology But back then the technology was like your armor and a sword and making a sword wasn't super tough You know for them like a lot of them did it So once you get that you're on pretty even ground and now you just need good training and then as we all know There's so many so many levels to training. It's like look Plenty of people know how to fight right special forces people are trained to fight and they're tough in their strong fighters But you take their guns away or the knives away how many of them can beat up UFC people? Fighters they're probably the ones probably very few.ers. They're probably the ones. Probably very few.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Well, they're probably the ones that could have a chance if you just picked someone out of the out of the blue. Yeah, and that was the point I was gonna make. It's like if you take the our modern weapons away and All of a sudden you just take the entire UFC roster Which isn't that many people? I don't know what the entire roster would be. It's like 500 active fighters maybe, maybe not that many, but let's say that many. I mean, they would have to be worth, shit, 5,000 regular people. I mean, Robbie Lawler could walk through a crowd just left and right knocking people out. Like it would take like, it would take like 50 people. Org before they came back.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Kim Shamrock, back to back with Robbie Lawler and who's the other guy? Brent Lezner, Brock Lezner. Those guys there would just hammer down on everybody they came across totally. But they maybe think about taking them out of that element, putting them on a hill. People that have learned how to fight on jungle terrain
Starting point is 00:34:30 are going to have the advantage, 100%. Like when the United States Army went to, or when World War II went into the South Pacific arena and started fighting in New Guinea, I think there was a few battles down in that area. The Australians versus the Japanese. And they had the Australians were friendly to the locals, had their help. And they won because they had, they took the training resources, the people that were there had the unequivocal advantage because of their upbringing and their ability to,
Starting point is 00:35:07 once you take away the guns, the bullets, the ammo, you're gonna win because of the knowledge, the training. Right. Yeah, and I mean, and this is why with all the technology advancements we had over the Vietnamese during the Vietnam War, but they just knew the land so well. They could just hide, dig holes and tunnels and deal with those jungles, stay out there,
Starting point is 00:35:37 far more comfortably than our guys could. They did it was just a nightmare. They didn't need a supply train. They they just heard a heard 10 pigs down a hole. I keep them down there and then they have meat for a month for 200 guys. Right. Not sure if they did that, but that sounds they did. It sounds like they did. It sounds like a good idea. I believe it. I love it as we wrap this up. I love how they ended the podcast, listen to some legendary Kanye.
Starting point is 00:36:15 And also discussing where is he, what's he doing? Is he coming back? He'll be back. You know, Joe keeps putting this on him, like, all it's going to take is that one banger album. But when was the last really solid album that he made? Like, I don't think he's made one for a minute. He's had some decent songs on each album, but I mean, I think it was like kind of 2010 before and before was like his really heavy hit in ones where like every song was just a complete absolute bang.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Um, well that was, I don't know, but I know it was one album for me that turned me against him. And honestly, it's not like, I don't look to celebrities for my moral guidance or how to act in the world But you should but I listen to their music and say oh, okay, I Don't want to hear any of this and that was me conning the last ten years honestly Really Yeah, he's had a few wax songs here and there. But black skin. Yeah, that's interesting. That is how he could get back though. Yeah, like that would be one row. He has an uphill
Starting point is 00:37:36 battle. Let's be fair to say, you know, it's going to be easy to tear him apart if he comes out with something and it doesn't hit. Yeah, to kind of just add to him being done But if he comes out with something that is just it's just got one of those beats It's just got one of those hooks that kind of Everyone wants on their commercial, okay, or as their intro fight song or whatever it is, you know movie totally It it's just too good to deny it almost is or as that intro fight song or whatever it is, you know movie. Totally. It's just too good to deny.
Starting point is 00:38:09 It almost is like a forgiving point. They talked about it in one of the Protect Our Parks like when Thriller came on. You do, do you? Everyone kind of forgets that Michael... Is it Sick Bastard? May, may have been a Sick Bastard. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:25 I like that quote by Cat Williams that Joe brings up. I got things that bitches want. I got silk sheets. I don't like silk sheets. I got silk pillows. What do you think I want those things for? I got stuff to entice the people I want here. And Michael Jackson, he's got petting zoos. He's got
Starting point is 00:38:47 Ferris Will's he's got he's got bump candy machines He's got an entire amusement park at his house How did he ever maintain that and pay for it? Oh, he literally bankrupt himself owning his own theme park? He was... That seems so excessive. Come on, he's made of money. There's no end to the... Once you get to a level, there's no end to creditors giving you money.
Starting point is 00:39:16 There's no end to your money. That's true. I thought he was like getting a bit broke by the end of his career though. Maybe not. He does one tour and... I'm not sure how it works. Yeah. More money, more problem, well. Dulley Pond has her own theme park, so it can be done.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Not you. Maybe there's going to be a Taylor Swift theme park coming up. Well, hopefully. God willing. God willing. All right, let's wrap up with some Of the protect our parks these ones are always difficult to review just because they're chaos They are the most fun podcast you can ever imagine
Starting point is 00:39:59 Obviously ari Shafir peas and a bottle during the Remember, this is the most listened to thing on the planet, with a host that many people have suggested could moderate the presidential debates, and he also does podcasts like this. I love that, that warms my heart, that gives me faith in humanity and They're just a bunch of guys have a good time. Okay, it's good to see it was good to listen to It was absolutely hilarious Mark Norman is just
Starting point is 00:40:38 He's a sweet guy. You can you see it in his face. You just want to you just want to get that guy Game of hug Padm on the back. I want to be his friend. It's a good one you just want to get that guy, get my hug, pat him on the back. I want to be his friend. It's his bud. I want to be Mark's friend. I think he'd be so great. You know, and he's getting very famous now and very well known in the world of comedy
Starting point is 00:40:57 and a superb comedian. And he just does seem very like down to earth and not big headed and Just kind of grounded in his own state he hasn't changed that all on any of the shows he's been on He's always willing to make himself look like an idiot by just saying the wrong thing the wrong time He's just he's so pure Comedian that I just love it to death. And the way Gilles and him go back and forth, Gilles is always calling him a pussy
Starting point is 00:41:29 and telling him to drink more. He just takes it so well. He's like, come on, pussy, drink up. Okay, all right. You always like to hide it to it. And then for whatever reason, Mark also pissed in a jug and Rogan was like, that's our water jug. And he's like, oh yeah, oh, I'm really sorry.
Starting point is 00:41:49 It's like things are getting out of hand. I felt like I feel like honestly Rogan handled it well. I feel like he could have got more mad at that. That there are very few guests that get away with ping into jugs in the studio on the podcast. You know, though it would be a fun surprise if like Neil DeGrasse Tyson one day was just like, oh yeah, I just heard people do that. It's peeing and...
Starting point is 00:42:18 Seed? This is a man's penis, but it could be a woman's penis. It's a space penis. He's good too. Are you shepir? Shepir? Shepir. Shepir.
Starting point is 00:42:35 You can just hear the wisdom or rather the raw IQ out of that guy. He's wicked smart. Oh yeah, yeah. He's super intense. Almost all those guys honestly. I've seen Ari do stand up lots of times at the comedy store, at least a dozen, you know, while I was living in LA and just often getting up to the comedy store and just every time he has such a unique presence like he's very chill, he was kind of like crosses his arm and just has the one hand up to his mouth like he doesn't make himself look like a big presence on stage it's all about the words and just, you know, the detail. And he goes, he goes in whatever
Starting point is 00:43:30 direction he feels, like he's very free when he does his stand up. And I've always liked his style. Like, and it's always heady, it's clever. That the, if you've seen the comedy special of his juice No, I want to watch it after listen to this last one dude. It is it is Amazing it is just phenomenal like the and it's and it's very different in a lot of ways than like other types of stand-up and and even his other Stand-up. I mean it's I love to watch it. It's just Dude, it's almost painful. Like you laugh so much that it just keeps hitting and just goes through all these stories in history and the Bible and the different things and it's killer. I think Joe said it before that he feels like
Starting point is 00:44:18 there's a place where he could do a whole series on it, you know. It almost didn't go deep enough. way he could do a whole series on it, you know. It almost didn't go deep enough. Mm-hmm. And we, and I, we do and I, we don't know anything about, let's just be honest, we don't know anything about the people in other religions, you know, we, we know about their religion, but we don't know about their lives. So it is nice to delve into that and their own problems and their own issues with it. Yeah, and I think ultimately it kind of like lowers the veil and brings us a bit
Starting point is 00:44:53 closer together. Like you have a bit more understanding of like what's going on over there. It's cool to see them make fun of themselves, but then also pick on some of the other religions and even like the, you know the non-religious people, it's like everyone can get thrown under the bus. I love that. Yes. Like do it. You know, it's so good.
Starting point is 00:45:15 We need to throw away our differences and embrace our sameness. That's a beautiful message, Pete. You're welcome. Beautiful message. I actually got that from American Psycho, but out of the words of Patrick Bateman. Oh, someone to look up to.
Starting point is 00:45:32 I like it. That is excellent. Well, on that note, we call this one a done for the week. Great week of pods. Shane Gillis, legend. First person ever, as far as I remember, to do a whole week of all of the pods.
Starting point is 00:45:50 It was like he was Joe Rogan's co-host this week. Yeah, that's his Joe Rogan's or the buddy. I love it. That's right. Big fan. Alright, thanks for listening everyone, Pete. Thanks for joining and we will talk to you guys next time. See you.
