The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.
Thank God men like Nick Diaz exist.
This weekend, Nick Diaz and Carlos Conde.
Thank God those guys exist.
Thank God those guys exist and thank God those guys have built themselves up
to the point where this is one of those matches where five fucking rounds, man, you can't wait.
You're going to be palm sweaty, rubbing your hands together before that bitch.
I don't know who's going to be the referee for this.
I don't know who it is.
But before that one person looks at the blue corner and looks at the red corner
and then says, fight, that shit is going to be crazy.
And poor Carlos Condor, he's been training for eight years for the fucking fight.
Yeah, perfect.
Eight years he's been fucking training.
Every two months they change opponents.
Perfect.
He's had 19 fucking opponents, like Batman in season one.
It's really, for him, I think it's perfect.
Because he's so prepared.
No, he's ready.
He's ready to rock.
It's the perfect time for him.
160 plus 130.
The line is not that bad.
It's minus 160.
You would be crazy to pick a favorite in this fight.
I think you'd be crazy.
I think that this is one of those who the fuck knows what's going to happen fights.
This could be, who knows?
It's going to be amazing.
It's going to be amazing.
For Doom Roy Nelson, too.
Yeah, for Doom Roy Nelson, too.
I forgot all about that.
Oh, how about Hennen Barau and Scott Jorgensen?
That's right.
Holy shit.
That Hennen Barau dude, he's the dark horse of the pound for pound division
because he's not a champion yet, but he might be one of the top pound for pound guys. He's right up there with Aldo. He's the dark horse of the pound for pound division because he's not a champion yet, but he might be one of the top pound
for pound guys. He's right up there with Aldo.
He's a beast. Did you see his last
fight with Brad Pickett? He hit
homeboy with a knee to the face
with no jump. Just fucking
leaped up with his knee. You know, instead
of that thing where they lift the front leg and
then they come up with the right leg, they'll start with the
left leg and then they use it as force to
kick up with the right leg. Some of these badass Brazilians, like Anderson can do it too, where they just up with the right leg they'll start with the left leg and then they use it as force to kick up with the right leg some of these badass brazilians like anderson can do it too
where they just fly through the fucking air with one knee and baral just lifted that knee up and
crack caught caught brad pickett in the chin i mean he's a beast dude and his jujitsu is fucking
sick you know as soon as brad pickett like and he saw a position, he jumped on that back so quick, man.
It was a thing of beauty, man.
I saw the UFC special on Nick Diaz, Carlos Condit.
Which one?
Episode one?
Shit, I don't know.
Episode two, I don't know if it's aired yet.
Is it aired yet?
Well, the one where they have Nick Diaz as, like, kindergarten teacher.
Yeah, isn't that funny?
Damn, she remembered Nick, right?. Yeah. Damn. She remembered Nick.
Of course she did.
She remembered Nick.
And this is
I learned a lot about Nick
and
I come up with a hypothesis.
You know
before when
in the early days
if you were
a black belt in jujitsu
shit you had
a shot at the title.
And then it became
if you were an Olympic wrestler
damn you have a shot at the title.
Now it's obvious.
Now it's becoming more like all other sports.
Like, if you didn't wrestle, do jujitsu, and worked on your striking since day one as a kid, because there's so many kids doing that, all three now, it's like you're not going to have a shot in the very near future.
And I think there's one more factor, and that's the Nick Diaz factor.
Obviously, he doesn't like cameras.
He's said it a million times.
He doesn't like to talk in front of cameras.
He's not, you know, he's not into it,
and maybe he's shy in front of the camera or whatever,
and his teacher was even saying
that he wasn't the most, you know, vocal guy,
and he had trouble expressing himself and all that shit.
And when he gets in that cage and that door slams shut
and the crowd is roaring, there's no more fucking talking.
He just comes alive.
He looks at his opponent.
He's like, nobody could fucking hear you.
You could be the most articulate, funny, charismatic guy on the fucking planet.
But you know what?
I fucking run all day, swim all day, do box.
I got a crazy chin.
I'm going to fucking kill this motherfucker.
That's like a that's an X factor right there.
If you didn't like you have to look for that, I think, in the future in fighters.
Like, do they have that switch where when they fucking get in that cage it's just it really is like
life or death his is a very different thing than anybody else's first of all
his approach to it is so different than anybody else's in that he does like
endurance training like long distance marathon type training and basically
forces these guys to try to keep up with him I mean he basically puts them into
an endurance contest and tries to get him to keep up with him. I mean, he basically puts them into an endurance contest
and tries to get them to keep up with him.
That's why he does a lot of juking and a lot of getting in their face.
All that stuff tenses you up, all that stuff.
All those punches that he throws at 50%, 60%, all those tighten you up.
You know, one of the things that Frank Shamrock said
was that when Nick Diaz was punching him, he hits you so often you can't breathe.
You don't know when to breathe.
You can't relax because you never get to relax
because they just keep coming, which is just different you just he
just fights in a different way i think the way he does it is brilliant it's so brilliant because no
one else did it before him no one else figured out that that way to fight no one else really like
would not just have great skills but have ridiculous world-class endurance like swim
from alcatraz endurance.
That's nutty shit, man.
They said they went through a countdown.
He sparred some ridiculous amount of rounds.
Then he ran five miles, and then he swam for an hour and a half.
That was just one day.
And he just does that all day.
He does it all the time.
Maybe he has some kind of condition where he's obsessed with exercise.
I don't know.
I mean, I think he loves it
For sure
I mean
When he was a kid
He said that
You know
I think he said
It was
One of the countdown shows
His
I think it was his uncle
Or someone
Was like
A track coach
Yeah
And he used to take him
His grandfather
Danny Propokos
But that's the other thing too
Here's the other thing too
With him
You know what
He doesn't like
Fucking talking
You smoke a joint
What do you feel like doing Go for a fucking run See what happens what? He doesn't like fucking talking. You smoke a joint. What do you feel like doing?
Go for a fucking run.
See what happens to your head.
It feels great.
It feels great.
I smoke a joint and I go to fucking swim fit for an hour.
You feel like fucking Hercules when you come out.
And that's his world.
That's his fucking world.
That's what his endurance comes from.
From going, I don't want to hang out with these dumb fucks
because I might stab somebody.
I'll just smoke a joint and run until the fucking highway is off.
And he runs for fucking two hours. When I lived in Boulder. I'll just smoke a joint and run until that fucking high wears off. And he runs for fucking two hours.
When I lived in Boulder, I used to smoke
and run, and the high when you finish
fucking running is a complete different
dimension. Yeah, even when you smoke and lift,
man, you feel
all your muscle tissue. Like when you're
pressing weights, you feel it. You feel
your whole body moving. Swiping and
rolling. They say, well, not
just that, yoga.
Smoking and doing yoga. Oh, an edible?
That's the way you're supposed to do it.
It is edibles.
I used to eat an edible.
You're supposed to eat hash.
I used to take a little piece of banana bread or a little hash cookie.
I'd take it at 7 in the morning and go to 8.30 yoga.
You know what my head is at at 8.30?
And the bitch is smoking.
Yeah.
And I would just go into it little by little, and it's amazing.
It's fucking amazing.
When you walk out of there, you don't know what hit you.
You really don't.
So that's what my thing is with him.
That he just, you know what?
He's not the type of guy that's going to go to a club or whatever.
What would you do?
Smoke a joint and go for a fucking run.
He's the last guy I'd want to fight.
Because think about it.
Compare him to GSP and even Jon Jones and Anderson Silva.
What he has that they don't have,
maybe they will develop it,
is he will stand right in front of you
and exchange with you.
And he's down to go to war right in front of you.
I mean, not very, I mean, GSP ain't gonna do that.
John Jones probably won't even do that.
And if you decide to take him down,
he'll fuck you up on the ground too.
His jujitsu's amazing. It's like, what the fuck? like what's a cyborg fight what the fuck are you gonna do example yeah
what are you gonna do with nick diaz he was killing what are you gonna do with him cyborg he was
killing cyborg standing up so cyborg took him down and whoop arm bar yeah within 30 seconds he had
him in an arm bar yeah i mean gsp might be able to take him down yeah what is he gonna do he's not
gonna pass his guard yeah he's not going to pass Nick Diaz's guard.
It's not going to happen.
He doesn't get tired when you're on top of him either.
You know, a lot of dudes, man, you put them on their back and they just get exhausted.
They get demoralized.
They get exhausted.
Unless we see his chin fall apart, man, I can't see him losing.
Well, you know, that can happen to some fighters when they take beatings.
Yeah.
It can happen.
At a certain time.
We've seen it happen over and over.
You know, Vanderlei and so many guys, Chuck, eventually.
They had iron chins.
Yeah.
And they would come, even if they got robbed.
Well, Vanderlei never had an iron chin.
Vanderlei got dropped a lot.
Sakuraba dropped him.
A lot of people dropped him.
Henderson had him really badly hurt.
But his chin is a lot worse now.
It's a lot worse.
Arguably.
Arguably. Arguably. But, you know, he was already just this dude who ran face for first you know he did one of the things that
made Vanderlei great was how reckless he was you know he didn't give a fuck he would charge at you
literally like a wild dog you know he'd be like a pit bull just running at you but that style gets
you hurt you know that style I mean he's the this is not it's not a coincidence that he's the only guy of his era that had to have facial
reconstruction so he could breathe you know his nose was flattened smashed
flattened if you go and look at his face from when he first entered into pride
and then his face in his first UFC fight with Chuck he's a completely different
person you wouldn't even recognize him he was a handsome guy when he first got
into the into pride who's that fucking handsome guy. When he first got into Pride, he was a fucking handsome guy.
Vanderlei.
Look at Vanderlei.
You thought he was hot?
Pretty sexy.
I'd dance with him.
He was cute.
He was cute.
He was sexy.
He was a completely different looking person.
You know, Noguera as well.
Noguera's face looks way different too.
How about Nate fucking Diaz?
Holy shit.
It's like a carbon copy of nick diaz we got
two nick diaz's we don't just have one yeah that's fucking incredible he was just like maybe a year
behind nick diaz sort of in development it seemed like like maybe in jujitsu he was a little behind
and in the striking and the striking power and now he's like caught up to nick i think he had
some weight problems too where he didn't cut the weight right and now he cuts it right and now he has way more energy because when he went up to 170 you know he he had some weight problems, too, where he didn't cut the weight right, and now he cuts it right, and now he has way more energy.
Because when he went up to 170, he had some fights where he looked badass, like the Rory Markham fight.
Holy shit.
And I thought, man, this kid is draining himself too much to get down to 55.
But then he figured out how to do 55 right, and he came in in the Gomi fight and just fucking lit Gomi up.
But the Cerrone fight was even more impressive because he did it for three fucking rounds so it shows that he's got endurance at 155 too and he lit cowboy up man i
mean that i thought that was gonna be a crazy close fight it's like sort of how i feel about
this condit fight i don't know what the hell's gonna happen i look at it i'm like man both guys
are tough as fuck both guys have mad skills both guys can survive some dudes can't be the nail
you know some dudes could be the hammer but when they're the nail they fall apart
condit doesn't fall apart man condit got bombed on by jake ellenberger ellenberger had him in all
sorts of trouble and ellenberger puts people away that kid hits fucking hard he's one of the hardest
hitting guys at 170 and he bombed condit and. And Condit covered up, weathered the storm, and came back.
That was the first fucking round, man.
He was in all sorts of trouble in the first round.
A lot of referees would have pulled that trigger.
A lot of referees would have stopped that fight if they didn't respect him, if they didn't know him.
If he was like a new guy into the UFC.
How did that fight end again?
He won a decision.
Won a close decision.
Okay.
But it was a great fucking fight.
But what it proved to me is that Condit is
no frontrunner. He's a dude that
is in it to win it. The Rory
McDonald fight. Another perfect example.
He came on the third round. Third round. Came back and stopped
him. Lost the first two rounds. Came back in the third
round and stopped him. And that kid is a fucking
phenom, man. That Rory McDonald, man.
He's a phenom. With a fucking elbow he got him to the head.
Yeah. He crushed him on the ground.
He broke his face open on the ground.
You know, Condit's an animal.
He's a real fucking killer.
That guy's a straight killer.
What he said in that countdown show was badass.
He goes, I want the referee to rescue you.
I want the referee to come in and save your life.
Save your fucking life, man.
And that's the way, when a dude thinks like that, that's a killer, man.
I mean, if he wasn't doing this, he would be somewhere working for the military,
shooting people in Iraq.
I always said that about him.
He's a killer.
He's a killer.
He's a fucking killer.
I mean, that natural-born killer, that's not just a nickname.
You know, you can talk all that tough guy shit you want.
What happens when you actually get in there and you're throwing down?
When that guy's actually in there and he's throwing down, he's a fucking stone-cold killer.
They both are.
They're both stone-cold killers. Neither neither guy's gonna be scared of the other guy both guys are gonna be
just going in there ready just let it all hang out this is gonna be a crazy weekend
i wish i wasn't working i wish i'd fucking get kenny florian to fill in i want to get hammered
i'm gonna sit cage i'm gonna'm going to take it easy this time.
It would be an honor to call this fight.
Don't get me wrong, but there's fights like that where I wish
I could just go, oh, shit.
Oh, shit.
Koscheck and Mike Pierce.
Yeah.
Are you kidding me, man?
Pierce is dangerous for everybody.
He's one of those guys that eventually he's going to catch on.
Eventually, Pierce is going to hit his stride,
and he's going to be Johnny Hendricks in dudes.
You know, like Johnny Hendricks just took out Finch.
There's these wrestler dudes that are just striking and slowly getting better,
slowly getting better, but the power is always there.
It's just a matter of figuring out how to put fist to face.
And they're getting better at it.
And Johnny Hendricks, man, the way he put out John Finch like that with one punch.
I'll tell you what, Johnny Hendricks hits anybody hits anybody with that punch anybody and you're fucksville
fucked that guy hits really hard there's some guys you watch him hit dudes in the cage and you know
you know you say well hey that's a strong guy that's an athletic guy Hendrix is one of those
guys he's got that extra there's that extra there's some dudes when they hit you you hear it
when you hear them hit the bag,
you know,
you know,
when you hear a guy hit the bag
and he go,
this motherfucker's got that extra pop to it.
That's what Hendrix has got.
You either have that
or you don't have that.
I mean,
you can certainly make your punching power better.
You certainly build your muscles up a bit,
put some weight on,
learn how to turn your body into things better.
But some dudes just know how to throw
and that Hendrix cat knows how to throw. And so does Pierce, he knows how to fuck, especially that left hook,
he's got power, and Koscheck too, man, Koscheck is dangerous as fuck, man, that Matt Hughes fight,
that was a brutal assassination, man, you know, that was a brutal ending to that fight, which
you kind of knew it was going to happen, stylistically, you're like, well, here's two
really good wrestlers, but one of them has stupid knockout power
and the other one has been knocked out
a few times. It's not the best stylistic
matchup for Hughes. He's got to fight
again. He's looking for
another fight, Hughes.
Hughes and Hoist Gracie, they should make that happen,
man. He'll kill Hoist.
It doesn't matter. It's a good rematch.
Hoist wants it really bad. No matter what happens,
it's still going to be a match. I shouldn't say he'll kill Hoist because you never know what the fuck is going to happen. Hoist Gracie's a legend, for him. It doesn't matter. It's a good rematch. Hoist wants it really bad. No matter what happens, it's still going to be a match.
I shouldn't say he'll kill Hoist because you never know what the fuck is going to happen.
And Hoist Gracie is a legend.
But based on that first fight, I would hate to see that again.
Unless there was something wrong with Hoist.
Is Hoist claiming he was sick or something?
I don't know.
Hoist is an all-time great.
He's the original legend.
He was the first jiu-jitsu guy.
The first guy to show the world.
If it wasn't for him, I would have never known.
None of us would have ever known. If it wasn't for his for him i would have never known none of us would have ever known if it wasn't for his accomplishments in the ultimate final championship none of us would have ever known but that was a long fucking time ago you
know and errors they pass for a reason and at a certain point in time your body just does not
move the same anymore you know and the world passes you by and when that happens you got to
step aside man you got to step aside you can't just be going out there and getting knocked out all the time and get hurt all the time.
Because it's just reality.
You know, reality, there's a certain point in time where all of us are going to be dust, man.
And the only way this sport really works is that we stop people from competing when they hit that point.
Because they don't believe it.
The same thing that makes someone a great fighter makes someone say, no, you're all wrong.
I'm going to prove the world. I'm going gonna go out one more time i'm making a comeback
that but that's that's how guys get up yeah but they gotta decide for themselves if
hoyce wants to fight i wanna i would love to see hoyce matt hughes really he wants it if matt hughes
wants wants another fight that's a great rematch what if we got on matt what if matt hughes got on
his back just like before that'd be fine bombing him in the head herb dean would come in and stop
it at the perfect time?
I don't know, man.
Like he always does?
I don't want to watch that fight again.
I don't want to watch
what happened in that fight again.
I love Hoyes too much, man.
I love that guy.
I think he's,
like I said, he's a legend.
He's a hero.
He's not going to get killed.
He'll tap out.
It's not that.
People lose fights all the time.
I don't want to see him
fighting that.
Unless there was something
really wrong with him
and unless he's different now.
He wants it really bad.
I think that's good enough.
Wow.
You know who else wants Hughes?
Who?
Your boy.
My boy.
Dan Hardy.
Oh, shit.
Dan Hardy's been calling him out.
That'd be a good fight, too.
Dan Hardy doesn't like him, apparently.
That'd be a good fight.
Yeah.
You don't think Hughes would be able to take Dan Hardy down fairly easily?
Unless Dan's worked really hard on his wrestling.
Yeah.
I'm assuming he's working day and night on takedown defense
If Hughes goes back to the way he was wrestling when he was at his peak
I mean, if that's possible, if his body can still do that, man
Remember those days, like the Sakurai days?
You know, people forget how dominant that motherfucker was
You know, he was dominant, man
He was like one of the first dominant wrestlers actually
that learned submissions too.
So he wouldn't just beat you up.
He started strangling guys,
taking backs.
He started getting arm bars.
Frank Trigg.
Fuck yeah.
Didn't he beat him twice?
Beat him twice with a rear naked choke.
Yeah.
And the second time
after he got kicked in the balls.
Yep.
Those were great days, man.
Remember he picked him up
and walked him across?
After Frank Trigg was bombing on him,
Frank Trigg got his back
and it looked bad. But Frank Trigg does bombing on him frank trigg got his back and
it looked bad but frank trigg does not know how to finish that joke he doesn't know how to defend
or finish and that hughes picked him up walked him to the middle of the fucking cage and threw
him against the ground it was awesome man it was awesome that was like one of the best moments
like mma moments come from behind you know from being stuck guy kicks you in the balls hits you
with a bunch of shots takes your back
And this is that in a rematch of a fight where you fucked him up in the first fight
You didn't want to fight him in the second fight anyway
And then he starts winning and then Hughes just mustered it all up and turned it all around that was amazing
That was some amazing shit. Yeah, some good high guard action in that fight as well. See a guy like Hughes
I mean, I think Hughes is a great fighter, but I think a certain number of knockouts,
they have to step in and stop you from doing that.
Whether it's your family, whether it's your friends,
whether it's your boss, there's a certain amount of times.
I've talked to, there's a guy that I know very well
who is a traumatic brain injury specialist.
And what he deals with is rehabilitating people
and helping people with all these mental imbalances
that people have due to traumatic brain injuries.
One of the things that happens is your body stops producing testosterone.
You get really lethargic.
You get depressed.
That happens to a lot of guys that have a bunch of head injuries.
They get depressed.
Apparently, your brain can only take a few concussions in your life who needs to retire
right now who yes i would never tell any of them to retire but there's a few dudes that i would i
would pull aside and i would say you know think about this a little bit you know i don't want to
say because i'm in my position you know being a commentator but there's there's a lot of them any
any dudes who've been knocked out a gang of times.
But there's guys that violate that shit like Alistair Overeem.
Alistair Overeem has been stopped a bunch of times, dude.
He's been knocked out a gang of times.
How many times?
A lot.
I would bet he's been stopped at least eight times.
Damn.
Yeah.
Yeah, he's been.
Chuck knocked him out.
Okay.
Badr Hari knocked him out
In kickboxing
What is that big dude that used to fight King of the Cage?
Real angry guy
Hoffman, Bobby Hoffman
Bobby Hoffman knocked him out
How about that?
Yeah, Bobby Hoffman KO'd him
Shogun KO'd him, I believe
A bunch of dudes stopped him, man
Oh, Karatanov knocked him out A bunch of dudes stopped him, man. Oh, Karatanov knocked him out.
A bunch of dudes stopped Overeem.
But Overeem figured it out, man.
And one of the things he figured out, he was just too fucking small.
He was too small at 205, you know, when he moved up to heavyweight.
But then again, Karatanov, I think Karatanov jacked him at heavyweight.
He started, you know, I don't know what changed in him, man,
what changed his ultimate dedication, what changed in him What changed his ultimate dedication
What changed in his intensity
What changed
But no one's ever turned it around like Overeem
No one's ever gone from being stopped
Like eight times
Back when he was fighting at 205
In MMA
He was thought of as a tough guy
But a guy who would gas out
He goes from that to be the first guy to win a world
title in both MMA and K-1 kickboxing. No one's ever done that before. No one ever won the K-1
Grand Prix and won an MMA title and looks like that. You know, who the fuck looks like Alistair
Overeem? I mean, he's a goddamn superhero in a comic book. He turned it around. So when you got
a guy like that, you kind of can't say anything. You you look at merco cro cop and you go man i love cro cop he's a legend he's
got one of the greatest highlight reels of all time there's head kick knockouts one after the
other but at a certain point in time how many times can cro cop get knocked out before someone
doesn't want to you know you feel bad for him you know you know it's amazing the alertness of the
whole concussion thing yeah like everybody's hip to it now.
Like, I was watching 60 Minutes Tuesday night
and they interviewed Roger Goodall,
the whatever of the NFL,
and on Monday he reviews
tapes to see who gets concussions.
And they
showed a guy hitting another guy, like
a wide receiver getting hit
by a defensive back. And he
pointed the defensive back getting getting the concussion,
and staying in the fucking game.
So they're fighting him now.
They stay in the fucking game with the concussion because, you know,
you don't want to go the fuck out.
You're rocking.
You're playing.
You know what I'm saying?
So you don't even feel it.
But it's amazing how the guys are staying in voluntarily.
So who the fuck are you to tell them?
It's dangerous, man.
It's really dangerous.
And these football players, they're finding out now.
You know, these guys, by the time they even get to college, a lot of them are fucked up.
That dude who, remember that dude who died?
Henry something.
Henry died in the back of a pickup truck.
Football player really recently.
You don't know who I'm talking about?
No.
Him and his girlfriend were arguing.
He jumped in the back of her pickup truck.
Google that shit, Brian, if you can. Henry were arguing He jumped in the back of her pickup truck to Google that shit Brian if you can Henry something Henry football player dead
pickup truck
Anyway, the dude died don't don't put bottle in the dude died and they he was only 28
I think and they checked out his brain in a brain of like an old man
It was his brain was all fucked up
His brain showed massive damage because he had been KO'd who knows how many times by the time he got to the pros
You get KO'd in high school.
You get KO'd in junior high
school. I talked to a dude who had a
fucking 11-year-old son
and his 11-year-old son got knocked out
for a half an hour
and they put him back in a month later. A month
later, that kid's playing football again. I'm like, you're
crazy. One of my students
got knocked out in... Chris Henry.
Chris Henry, yeah.
Yeah, what was his story?
Does it say anything about his brain?
Cincinnati Bengals football player Chris Henry died after he fell...
Hold on.
After he fell...
Oh, the shit.
It just went away.
He fell off the back of a pickup truck, right?
Yeah, pickup truck. Fell off the back of a pickup truck.
Fuck, man.
These guys, man, they don't realize.
A lot of people, you know, they had no idea.
So they were just throwing these people back in over and over and over again.
And now they're starting to put it together.
What are you doing over there, Joey?
What are you doing?
Checking something out.
Well, one of my guys got knocked out last weekend in an amateur show.
And he wasn't knocked out completely. It was controversial almost. Like, one of my guys got knocked out last weekend in an amateur show,
and he wasn't knocked out completely.
It was controversial almost.
The ref stopped it.
It was on the fence whether it was early or not.
He got up right away and was complaining.
He was never out, but he was a little rocked.
I didn't complain about the stoppage.
It looked legit. He got rocked standing and then got taken down,
a couple ground and pound against the cage.
He never was out, popped up. By the time we got backstage, and then got taken down a couple ground and pound against the cage he never was out popped up by the time we got backstage by the time he sat down he didn't
remember anything about the fight not one yeah they don't remember anything about the day he
wasn't even out though that's the crazy thing he wasn't even out and he doesn't remember he didn't
remember the name of the hotel we were at well you remember when we saw tim sylvia we were in the
hotel bar we're waiting uh to get our car to the airport and it was the next day after he fought randy couture he fought five
rounds against randy and lost his title and he came up to us and he goes dude he goes i don't
even remember the fight and he goes uh i i remember the the the bell ringing and then i remember
sitting in the corner asking uh my my corner what round it was. And it's the last round.
And he's like, what?
The last round?
Like, he just fought five rounds on instinct.
He had no idea what happened.
He got hit with one right hand early in the fight and just had no idea what happened.
Wow.
Yeah, that's, you know, we don't, you know,
that's why it drives me crazy
when someone will call a fighter a pussy.
Oh, this guy, you know know he never brings it he fights
like a wet blanket you go get your you get your fucking brains rearranged son you get someone
shitting kicking you up the side of the head you know there's a lot of guys like criticize guys
for being boring you know i doesn't bother me at all i don't i mean maybe i don't necessarily want
to see them but i i respect what they're doing i respect like like antonio mckee a lot of guys
give him a lot of shit you know because he you know he kind of like wrestles guys to the ground
he never never gets in like stand-up exchanges with guys too much and doesn't take any damage
but that's the key he doesn't take any damage yeah it might not be the most exciting thing in
the world but if you want to fight it's really that's a smart way to fight man smart way to
fight just close every close shop close everything there'll be no
punching there'll be no nothing there'll be you on your back and me punching you a little bit here
and again but nothing crazy because i don't want to get submitted and then i'll win every fight
you know it's it's not the smartest way to do it because it's a it's a sport and you're also
marketing yourself it's entertainment but i understand it i'll never call one of those
guys a it's a smart way to fight man What did you think of these fights this last weekend?
It was tough matchups, you know.
First of all, the Damian Maia-Weidman fight.
Weidman cut a shitload of weight.
He took that fight on 11 days' notice, and you could tell when he was in there.
He struggled.
And even Ray Longo gave it away in the corner.
Ray Longo said, you know, I saw what you went through yesterday.
I saw what you did yesterday.
You can do this.
They said that his cut was horrific.
But that kid is so fucking tough.
He just did it, and he went out there, and he grinded on Maya,
and he won a decision.
But you could tell by the end of the first round he was dead.
He was dead walking.
And Maya, luckily for him, was dead too.
Maya looked like really – I heard he had a flu or something
like earlier in the week.
He did not look good either.
So both guys, it was a real endurance issue, you know.
Like, I was talking to Jeremy Piven, and Jeremy Piven was, like, laughing about it, you know, because I didn't interview them.
And he's like, would you have said to them, so it's safe to say endurance was an issue in this fight?
Because it really was, like, it was kind of, you you know it wasn't the best fight to showcase
MMA you know but it was just a circumstantial situation there's nothing you could do about it
you got one guy who's a fucking stud wrestler with all this goddamn potential that Chris Weidman
could be the king of the world someday he could be the John Jones of 185 pounds he he's a he's a
beast he's a wicked wrestler he puts guys to. He put Tom Lawler to sleep with that fucking darts choke.
He's nasty, man.
He's strong as fuck.
I saw him fight Galvao in Abu Dhabi.
He avoided everything, and he got Galvao in a fucking darts, and he didn't tap him.
But the fact that he was able to sink it in and lock it up and had Galvao fighting to get his legs under him and to defend,
pretty fucking impressive for a dude as a wrestler.
I mean, I don't know what his Brazilian Jiu Jitsu rank is, but he's one of those kids that, you know,
he's really fucking strong willed, really smart. And he's just a winner.
There's some dudes that are just winners, man. They could have a torn meniscus.
They could have a fucking herniated disc. They take you down anyway.
They take you down anyway. They still strangle you while they're in pain.
There's dudes that can just force through shit like that. And that's Weidman's one of those, man. He's a fucking animal.
And then Damian Maia, you know what I think about Maia, man?
He's in limbo right now because Maia at one point in time
was just taking everybody down and strangling them.
He was all jiu-jitsu, and that's when everybody loved him.
He was nasty.
But somewhere along the line, he figured, you know what?
These Nate Marquarts, these guys I can't take down,
they beat the fuck out of me standing.
I've got to get my stand-up better.
But in doing that, his jiu-jitsu is just not the same.
It's not what it used to be.
You know, he submitted to Chael Sonnen.
He submitted Ed Herman.
He submitted all these guys.
He was strangling people, man.
And it was nasty.
When he got you on the ground, you were a fucksville.
And he pulled guard on those guys.
He refuses to pull guard now.
Chael Sonnen, he hit it with a fucking lateral drop.
You remember?
I mean, he was nasty.
But his stand-up is not good.
He's mechanical.
Like, he moves like the whitest guy on earth.
You know what I mean?
Like, if you look at the way he moves around, he's got like this.
And he does the same thing over and over again.
He paws with the right and then throws the left.
Paws with the right and then throws the left.
It's way too predictable.
You know, he needs to, that guy needs to, if he really wants to work on a stand-up,
he needs to go to like Holland and just hang out with Tyrone Spong for a year.
Just do what that guy does.
Move the way that guy does.
You know, go train with Gokhan Saki.
Go train with, go to Mike's gym and work out with Melvin Manhoof.
See the way those guys move?
You got to move like that.
Imitate them.
Move the way they're moving. Do those kind of combinations. Maybe your body doesn't exactly
move the way that body moves, but try to emulate it. The best strikers all have a particular style,
like especially kickboxers. They all have a particular style. You watch Manhoef fight,
he moves and he throws feints, he throws feints, boom, and he throws kicks. He's got a very
particular way of moving,
and the way of moving is the way of an elite striker.
You know a dude, like when you see a,
what's that dude's name, Chael Sanderson?
You ever see that dude wrestle?
When that dude gets low and he moves on dudes,
there's guys that you look at them.
You look at them move around on the mat,
you go, that's a fucking killer.
You know, like Mark Schultz back in the day,
you would look at Mark Schultz move around, you is a killer there's a certain way that guy moves you like
that's an elite wrestler no doubt about it there's a way he hits those hits those takedowns it's elite
you got to imitate those guys you got to if you want to be a real striker you got to figure out
what those guys are doing it figure out that style and then do it apply it to mma but you've got to imitate the way they move and right now damian maya does not move the way those elite
strikers move you know he's so good at jujitsu i know that he could be good at everything else
but it's gonna it's a leap you know and at 32 years of age it's tricky right is that what he
is about 32 i'm not sure how old he is but i i really think that that Him eliminating the pulling guard strategy has really hindered his game
I mean, there's only three things you can do in a fight. You can fight standing with a dude
You can try to take the guy down or you can pull guard. Yeah, that's all you can do and
Damian Maya always had that third option most MMA fighters most UFC fighters
always had that third option.
Most MMA fighters, most UFC fighters aren't good at that third option.
Their guard isn't dangerous enough to pull and attack.
Look at Paul Harris.
Paul Harris, who was the guy he beat?
Did he put her in a leg lock?
Oh, Misenzio.
Yeah, that guy.
That guy could have been an Olympic wrestler
and a K-1 champion.
And it didn't matter to paul harris he took
that out of the equation he took a little shot and he pulled guard and went right after his legs
he bypassed the superior wrestling he bypassed the superior striking he had the third option
most fighters don't have that third option damian maya was one of the few that did have the third
option if he was having trouble on his feet and he couldn't take the guy down,
which comes up all the time, having trouble on your feet,
can't take the dude down, if you don't have that third option,
you're going to just stand up and either lose a decision
or get knocked out, and that's it.
I would love to see Paul Harris and Damian Maia.
Ooh!
And remember, at the height of Damian Maia, he was pulling guard.
He was taking shots. If he didn't take him down, he was pulling guard. He was taking shots.
If he didn't take them down, he would pull guard.
He would sweep them, get on top, and attack.
He's not doing that no more.
He decided.
Someone convinced him that just be a striker, just stand up, try to take a guy down.
There's so many guys out there that he's not going to be able to take down.
And there's so many guys that he's not going to be able to strike with.
Like Weidman.
Yeah. What are you going to do? He's are you gonna do take down and you know what he's you know he was tired and so for both guys weren't in the best shape for that fight
they both obviously had some sort of a physical issue but if he didn't if
Weidman was at his best it's a terrible fight for him terrible fight he's not
gonna take that but but if he would have been the old Damian Maya where he would
have taken a shot he was sprawled he would have pulled guard his guard is dangerous enough in submissions and sweeps where he would have been the old Damien Maia where he would have taken a shot, he would have sprawled, he would have pulled guard. His guard is dangerous enough in submissions and sweeps
where he could have did something to Weidman.
But he took that out of the equation, and then he decided to kickbox with him.
And now all those years of jiu-jitsu, he's so good at jiu-jitsu,
it's not even in the game.
It's a kickboxing match.
Why would you do that?
If you can't take the guy down, drag him down.
Yeah.
Otherwise, you have to kickbox, and Maya's not a kickboxer.
Yeah, it's so stupid.
Look at Paul Harris.
Look at Paul Harris.
What he did, he took a lazy shot.
The guy sprawled.
He sprawled right into guard, went right to a leg lock.
The fight was over and done.
Those leg locks are ridiculous, dude.
His leg locks are ridiculous.
His legs are ridiculous.
I was watching him move around. I was like, this dude has like grapefruit
stuffed into his calves.
There's no way his calves really look like that.
Nobody's built like Paul Harris. People should watch
that fight, Paul Harris' last fight,
and look at that as a serious
way out of a fight
that you're having trouble in. If you're in a fight
and you're beating him standing,
fuck it. Stay standing. You got this, motherfucker. Don't take him down. If you're in a fight and you're beating him standing, fuck it, stay standing.
You got this motherfucker.
Don't take him down.
If you can take him down,
it's pretty easy to take him down.
Take him down, get on top.
But if you can't strike with him
and you can't take him down,
which comes up in so many fights,
it's so common,
you got to have your guard dangerous enough
so that you can pull guard,
either with leg locks, arm bones, you know, whatever.
Look what Paul Haas did.
Look at early Maya.
Yeah, he's got to figure it out, but too bad.
His jiu-jitsu is awesome.
It's awesome.
In the old days, watching him was awesome.
He's definitely got to figure it out, though.
It's a fucking crazy game, man, that fight game.
It's a ridiculous game.
Ridiculous way to make a living, man.
You want to talk about the craziest, most dangerous way outside of war to make a living?
That's it, right?
Can you imagine getting punched in the face every day in training?
Yeah, I can.
Can you fucking imagine that shit?
I can, for sure.
Every fucking day.
Yeah.
Ten fucking years.
I remember when I first, the thing that really got me thinking about what kind of damage striking does to your head
was when I started transitioning from taekwondo to kickboxing man because i was a novice my my striking was not
very good my hands were not good i could punch hard but i didn't really know how to box yet
and i would go in there with guys who did know how to box and even if they weren't punching you
hard they were hitting you a lot and you just go home and you're fucking i would lie in bed and my
head would throb and it's that terrible feeling
like what am i doing in my brain you know this can't be good lying in bed with headaches after
a sparring session that shit can't be good and you'd go everywhere the light would hurt like
and i wear sunglasses like because you the light would like hurt when your your head is pounding
from getting punched in the head shit is so bad for you That's why jiu-jitsu is so beautiful.
You get the thrill of the kill, yet there's no brain damage.
Except, you know, the guy who scares everybody the most is Paul Harris
because everybody else just kind of taps you out.
Paul Harris rips your legs apart.
He rips dudes' legs apart.
I mean, he just gets a hold of your leg and, like,
sorry, you ain't walking right anymore.
That's it.
Your leg's fucked for, like, a year.
Good luck. He might be the first guy to leg lock his way to the top because if he just keeps doing what
he's doing yeah what is he doing he's not really striking too much with dudes a little bit he's
just gonna shoot and you're gonna sprawl because the shot wasn't that good he's not a wrestler and
then he's gonna pull guard right into your legs so what are you gonna do against that you can work on your takedown
defense all fucking day till your head explodes he's gonna pull guard on you he's taking all your
wrestling and just throwing it out and fucking garbage all your striking you're wasting your
motherfucking time yeah he's just gonna take a shot and pull guard he's a beast it's an amazing
uh talent and skill to work on and not i don't think uh that many fighters um
well i know not that many fighters are working on it and more should they should explore what's up
how much did you love chicago this week did you have a great time my head's still spinning
god damn we had fun right that stage man i was overwhelmed that was one of the best shows
we've ever done i think it was the best show we've ever done. You know, when I walked on stage, I had a stutter step for a second.
Like the weed and the fucking stage hit me all at one shot.
I couldn't digest it.
My brain, it was like I had a little bit of concussion for the first three minutes.
It was very surreal.
And then once I got my timing going, it was all over.
But it was very surreal at first.
I couldn't absorb it.
I'm used to doing a theater with a bottom and a top.
Not a bottom, a top, and another top on top of that,
and another top on top of that.
Filled to the brim, and the people fucking yelling.
They know who the fuck you are.
The energy level, you know, little Esther's parents,
just everything about the show.
It was nuts.
The line afterwards.
I heard little Esther's parents didn't want her to take her to the UFC.
They didn't want to take her.
They just didn't want to drive.
She lives about 40 minutes outside of where the UFC was. They didn't want to drive take her to the UFC? They didn't want to take her. They just didn't want to drive. She lives about 40 minutes outside of where the UFC was.
They didn't want to drive and go through the traffic,
and the traffic was nuts.
Were they nice parents?
Yeah, they were nice.
Nice people.
I mean, nice to us.
I don't know what they did to her to make her little Lester.
Great limo driver, Damien, fucking great guy.
Dan, Dan.
Dan, he took us to the core.
Yeah, she fucking killed, dude.
Did she?
Esther killed, and she went on after Joey. Joey lit the core. Yeah, she fucking killed, dude. Did she? Esther killed.
And she went on after Joey.
Joey lit the place on fire.
And then little Esther goes up.
And I mean, she had a fucking killer set, dude.
She's got some great jokes.
I mean, I said this to her parents.
I'm not bullshitting.
I go, she's way funnier than I was at her age.
She's way better than I was at her age.
She's going to be a killer, man.
You know, she's right now, what is she, 23 or something like that?
How old is she?
Yeah, 23.
23?
She's a little kid.
She grabbed from the other night.
I was blown away.
The night was great.
The fans were great.
The people I talked to were great.
But my night was made with little Esther.
Yeah.
Her parents were there.
You know, I don't have parents.
How great is that for your parents to come see you in a theater?
Yeah. And not just your parents seeing you.
Anybody can see you when you're on HBO and you got your hour.
I'm talking about the night that it hit you.
It hit their parents finally what their daughter was really doing.
You come home as a kid and you're like,
Dad, I want to fucking jump off planes.
What?
You're going to come work in the factory with me.
That's it.
What?
Nobody in this family ever jumped off the fucking planes? Fuck you. You're going to die. And for two with me. That's it. Nobody in this family ever jumped on a fucking plane.
Fuck you.
You're going to die.
And for two years, that's all you get is torture.
And then finally, something.
And every family has it. I'm not going to come see you.
Your father's not going to come see you.
He doesn't approve of you boxing.
And all of a sudden, one night, your father does come.
And you know what?
She just wasn't with Janine Garofalo and a bunch of girls.
She was with killers she was with
marines from the comedy store boot camp training they went to camp pendleton i followed paul mooney
she was dead so i seen her growth right there when she got off stage her little face i had tears in
my eyes dog i was i was so excited for her because you can't describe that her parents were there bro
yeah she was uh it was incredible.
It was the best show we ever did, for sure.
The biggest show we ever did, too.
I've never sold out that many people.
We sold out that whole place.
It was like 3,300 seats or something like that.
Holy shit.
It was nuts.
That's nice, man.
3,300 is giant, right?
It's giant.
I've got videos of it.
I've got videos of it.
It's got to be a record, right?
You saw another guy that had a Death Squad tattoo, Austin? You saw another guy that had a Death Squad tattoo also.
Yeah, another guy who had a Death Squad tattoo.
Death Squad tattoos, Joey Diaz shirts.
I mean, it was just fucking overwhelming.
Hey, Brian, I'm going to email you this.
You can put this on the thing.
It was very just inspiring.
Just the fucking...
I had a hot beef Italian sausage combo sandwich.
I almost stayed there.
I almost fucking moved there, Red Band, with hot and sour peppers,
hot and sweet peppers from Mr. Beef.
I mean, this shit was fucking delicious.
The restaurant I went to the first night was delicious.
The fucking Fogo, the second night, we went to that steakhouse the third night.
It was just fucking good.
My asshole on Sunday smelled like I had firecrackers in there,
like I had gunpowder in my shit.
I miss going to Fogo.
They put heavy-duty meat. They put heavy Like I had gunpowder in my shit. I miss going out. They put heavy duty meat.
They put heavy duty gunpowder in the meat in Chicago.
That cattle is the real fucking deal.
They got Deca in it because I shit my asshole.
I had to light candles in the fucking hotel.
It was horrid.
Well, you know, Joey and I, we were staying in the corner of the hotel.
And so we had our own, we had a door that would go into this area.
And then he had a door and I had a door.
So we had like two doors. It was like our door to would go into this area, and then he had a door, and I had a door. So we had like two doors.
It was like our door to get into our little area, and then we each had an individual door.
I would open up my door.
In Chicago, by the way, it's fucking 30 degrees outside.
He's got his windows open, and you hear the wind whistling in like a haunted house.
So I would open up the door, literally it would sound like, you know,
like there was a fucking hurricane going on in the next room.
And do you know I was still sweating at night?
You got to go to a doctor, son.
I was still sweating in there.
That shit ain't good.
Listen, dog, I walked into the doctor's office yesterday for my pre-op.
I walked in there at a quarter to nine.
I hadn't smoked reefer.
Didn't smoke reefer the night before.
Had 10 hours of sleep.
Drank water.
I was relaxed. You know what my blood pressure was
At 8.45 in the morning
What
185 over 100
Is that good
No
That's horrible
That's fucking murder
Yeah
Then after they took the blood out
It went down to like
140 over 90
And that's okay
But it's still not
Fucking acceptable
You know what I'm saying
Yeah
My engine runs hot
All the fucking time
I take the medication.
I take the...
Well, you lost a shitload of weight at one point in time.
Don't matter.
How much did you put back on?
20.
That's it?
That's it.
I'm 295.
I was even in shock yesterday.
I was even in shock yesterday.
But some of the weight I put back, I lifted.
I fucking, you know, replaced some of my...
My legs are strong again.
I mean, I'm trying to fucking really do this.
I really want to get in shape. You know, it's not... You could be an in shape fat again. I mean, I'm trying to fucking really do this. I really want to get in shape.
You know, it's not.
You could be an in shape fat dude.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, it can't be hanging over in your titties and shit like that.
But you could try to.
That's what I told the doctor yesterday.
He goes, you know, one thing about you is I know you really try.
I really fucking try at this.
You know what I'm saying?
I take my pills.
I drink a lot of water.
I really fucking try at this.
So, the fucking diet.
Let me tell you something.
I count my points.
I still write the points down.
But if I'm in Chicago with Joe Rogan, hey, you're not going to go to Fogo
to chow. Wait, watch this because it's going to suck my dick.
You know what I'm saying? You know what? We're not having
the desserts no more. We had no dessert all weekend.
Well, we always had a fucking salad.
You know, we always eat salad, mixed
greens. You're trying the best that you
fucking can. You know, for breakfast, I eat
fucking oatmeal. I'm real
careful about not eating too much before a show, but we had like two hours.
Yeah, we had two hours.
You know, and that's what fucking fucks with me.
Like, they won't put me on the Anivar for my knee because of my blood pressure.
There's no fucking way.
I knew that from the jump.
You don't need to be no fucking genius.
Yeah, you need to get yourself in a little bit better shape, huh?
No, no, no.
I just got to figure something out for the blood pressure.
I either got to fucking...
Go on a straight vegetable diet.
No.
You pushing vegetarian on me?
Come on.
That's the best way to trim your body down.
Lose body fat.
What's the biggest you've been?
4'15".
No way.
Jesus Christ.
You were 100 pounds plus more than you are now.
Was that when you did the intro to the last thing they did?
Yeah.
Because you look like a different person.
How do you know?
I probably gained 20 pounds after that.
When you're that big, how do you know?
Because you go to a regular scale.
How do you know?
I don't know.
You get on a regular scale, it just shrugs its shoulders.
I stopped looking at it.
And I would go to gyms.
And I would put it all the way to 350.
And it would just go kink.
So after a while, I would measure it by the kink.
How fast it went kink.
That's how you measure it?
Ping. Ping. That's about 420. No, I didn measure it by the kink, how fast it went kink. That's how you measure it? Bing!
Bing!
That's about 420.
No, I didn't know.
Trust me, dog.
I always kept thinking 380, 390, and then I went to a fucking heart doctor, and they got the meat scale over on Century City.
They got a meat scale.
They got the fucking meat scale.
They got the thing where they give you the pre-heart attack, where they shoot the speeding, and you get on the fucking bicycle and start running and shit.
And that day, I was four fucking 15.
Oh my God.
So that's the biggest you ever won.
That was November of 2009 or something.
And I said, and then he goes, come back in January and we either put you on a diet that
fucking, you know, the lap band, whatever.
Or, and I was, you know, I'm scared of needles.
That's a couple of times you got to go see that motherfucker.
It's not just a scared
of needle thing. People break those things.
How many times has Ralphie had that operation?
Ralphie had the other one, the bypass.
He broke it though, right?
He busted it. The needle snapped.
He made a smaller
stomach. They made him a smaller
stomach and then he broke through it somehow
or another. He overstuffed
himself. I don't know.
Didn't you have him on your podcast recently? Yes, he was very good.
Talk about how he almost died?
Yeah, he was very good, man.
Yeah, what did he say?
It was just one of those fucking things.
He was burnt down.
Do you look at a guy like that and go,
as long as this bitch is alive, I'm okay.
That's your canary bird?
No.
Is he your canary in a coal mine?
You know what, man?
I know how hard it is for him to travel.
I know what it was like to get on a plane when you're 415 pounds,
and the seatbelt don't even fit in fucking first class, okay?
I know what it's like how to walk out, how your joints hurt.
That's why I love these personal trainers that, you know,
I go to North Hollywood Park and I got 400 pounds walking around the park.
It's not going to work, my friend.
It's going to last three weeks.
It's going to tap out.
The joint pain is unbearable. Put him in a fucking pool and make him eat
vegetables and shit like that, you know? And I know what it's like to sleep.
Is that what it is, a joint pain? That's the real issue with being that heavy?
It's amazing. It's amazing. And every time you fucking fly, your ankles swell up. And
he's flying two, eight times a fucking week. You know, Ralphie.
He's constantly flying, right?
Constantly flying.
Is he on the road every week?
He's on the road already.
How bad is it? He's on the road already. How bad is it?
He's on the road already?
He's in Tempe for Super Bowl weekend.
Eight fucking shows, the whole fucking thing.
So he stopped smoking weed?
He stopped smoking weed.
Is he eating it?
Nothing.
No weed?
He can't do nothing.
Oh, that's so sad.
Wait, he stopped because of what?
He had like blood clots in his lung or something like that.
How would weed hurt that?
In effect of his lungs.
Weed did?
Or the smoke in it?
The smoke in it and the fucking flying and the fucking, you know, not breathing.
And it adds up after a while.
I would think it would make all that traveling fun.
You know, they do all these tests on marijuana.
They do tests on a guy like Eddie Bravo, who's a normal weight yourself.
When you add 400 pounds, it's got to do something to your fucking lungs.
When your lungs are this big and you're trying to, what's going on?
Brian.
That's what's going on.
The show is going too well.
It fucking affects you at every level.
I found treasure.
It affects you at every level, man.
The reefer is just something that they told him to stop smoking as a precautionary measure.
Well, I think smoking anything is probably not so fucking good for your body.
You know, there's no evidence that it causes cancer.
It's very different from tobacco smoke.
We have smoke all put in the same category, but it's not.
It's not.
But there's other options.
It's got to do something to you to pot smoke.
I've been smoking weed for 30 years.
I've coughed.
I've spit fucking colors, fucking schmurfs, the whole thing.
Something's got to be going on with your lung.
You know, these people sit there and say, well, Harvard did a research.
Yeah, that's great.
It's got to do something to you.
Nothing is fucking free.
You've got to pay somewhere along the fucking line.
So knock it the fuck off reading High Times, some scientist with a beard with sandals on.
I don't give a fuck.
I'm telling you that somewhere along the line, smoking for fucking 30 years.
I've been smoking weed for fucking 30 years.
And I'll tell you what I know for a fact.
I got that C-O-P-D.
I know for a fact.
OCD?
No, P-O-C-D.
What's P-O-C-D?
That shit with your lungs when you hear little bells and whistles in your lungs.
So what I do, you know, when you breathe.
What?
Right now.
Are you talking about M-E-T-H?
You ever hear me breathing on the fucking.
You ever hear me breathe. Hey, hey, hey. Stupid. You ever hear me breathing On the fucking You ever hear me breathe
Hey hey hey
Stupid
You ever hear me breathing
On the microphone
You ever do
Fucking stupid
You ever do a thing
On the microphone
You go Joe
I hear you breathing
Do you hear you breathing
Do you hear Eddie breathing
That's COPD or something
So what I usually do is
Look at the fuck up
Don't look at him
With that fucking look
Well if I knew the exact acronym
Chronic obstructive
Pulmonary disease.
That's what it is.
Remember I used to take the steroid that I used to breathe in,
and it gives you fucking, like you eat.
Oh, that like Avodar.
Yeah, yeah.
And then remember I said that the one doctor said I might have asthma?
Yeah.
So what I used to do is whenever I'd hear the bells and whistles,
you just go run around three laps.
Poof.
Cleans it out.
Really?
I've been doing that for years.
Whenever I hear a bell and whistle,
that means you ain't walking enough, cocksucker.
Get on the, blow the whistle. Did you get, see that thing that Brian's got Whenever I hear a bell and whistle, that means you ain't walking enough cocksucker. Get on the boat. Blow the whistle.
Did you see that thing that
Brian's got? Have you seen that?
That's great. You just got to get out and walk.
Forget computers. You're right.
The beautiful thing about that is it tells you exactly
what you're doing. You can't bullshit yourself.
It tells you how much sleep you're doing.
And if you think you need
it and you don't have any money, just write on
a piece of paper you're lazy fucking put in your pocket.
That's what I've realized that what I do.
I look at it and I'm like, oh, shit, I'm lazy.
I know this already.
I could have saved myself $100.
And so it's not changing your habits at all?
No, I can see myself trying to beat my score before.
I can kind of see that.
But unfortunately, I just have this lifestyle that I'm so fucking busy that the only way that i can change that is just to make sure i work out every
day where this is more like for people that i guess uh like have time more time to try to
jog more brian is totally doing a totally different approach to what we're doing brian is working out
solely so that he can get more pussy that That's fine. That's his issue.
That's why 60% of people take fucking steroids that aren't athletic.
How many times you go to a bar and there's 18 guys looking around?
You think they're going for Mr. Olympia, and you're like, where do you live, Glendale?
So what's all these weights for?
For what?
To do what?
To be a bartender for 100 a night at the fucking local club?
No, to pick up pussy.
That's a lot of it.
Do you do steroids?
Not really.
No, you just look like a fucking tree trunk.
You know, but you don't do steroids.
Okay, you're like the Barbarian Brothers.
I ate 36 eggs for the last three years every fucking day.
Well, Brian is just doing it to keep up.
He's got a freak on the line.
That's what he's got to do.
I need a couple more power bars.
Listen, most people don't get fucking serious until they get rushed to the hospital.
This obesity fucking epidemic in this country is until you get rushed to the fucking hospital
with a tube coming out of your ass.
Then you'll be at the gym doing jumping jacks, bro.
Or you're going to fucking die.
When did it affect you?
When did you really start thinking,
I got to do something?
When my fucking spine was hurting when I do blow.
Whoa.
The back of my neck was fucking going
when I would do blow. When I would have to wear underwear to go to the gym Whoa, whoa, whoa. The back of my neck was fucking going zzz, zzz, zzz, zzz, zzz, zzz, zzz, zzz.
When I would do blow, when I would have to wear underwear to go to the gym because I would piss my pants because I couldn't catch my breath when I was throwing punches with macafole.
Jesus Christ.
That's when I fucking realized it.
And I knew that I wasn't going to get the operation.
That was not going to fucking work at all.
So I knew that I had to just eat right.
You just can't deal with the idea of it. You were also
talking about it like it was a weak thing to do.
What? Working out? The operation.
No, yeah.
Because people think in this country, everything...
Bro, look at our fucking kids we got now.
A kid has a fucking bad day, they put him on
a fucking pill. And then when they get old
and the computer crashes, now they got to put him
in another. They have a nervous breakdown. You go to Little
League and fucking Sherman Oaks.
You know you can't yell at the kids to strike or you suck or swing.
These kids are fucking pampered.
That's why half of them are on fucking pills, guy.
So what you're trying to tell me is I can go to Burger King every night
and eat like a fat fucking slob until I'm 35 and call Mr. Lapman and get my shit together?
And that's what you're telling this country.
So half of these motherfuckers aren't going for the right thing.
When you're 400 pounds, you're not sick.
It's your character.
Something's fucking not right.
Something's not right.
So if you get up and walk to the corner every fucking day,
eventually you're going to get bored walking to the corner,
so you're going to walk another corner.
Then you're going to walk another corner.
Then you're going to walk to the YMCA like I did,
and you're going to get on the bicycle for five minutes.
Then it's ten minutes, and it all fucking helps out. See, in my world, when you're a comic,
you think that you only come home Mondays and Tuesdays. So if I work out Mondays and
Tuesdays, Eddie, what's that going to do for me? Nothing. Not true. Even two days a week
fucking helps. I didn't know that. That's the mentality I took. I'm like, you know what?
I'll fucking snort blow. And the sick thing was that I always kind of worked out, Eddie.
I always lifted weights. I always did fucking something you know I'm saying I wasn't like so that's why when I got sick and bothered me
But I felt like I was too much behind the eight ball the first you're about to get out
You're about to get knee surgery fuck. Yeah, yeah, and I'm ready. It's like I fainted yesterday
You fainted on the way up from the fucking you don't even feel limit a some it's 2012 these new vampires
You don't even feel the fucking needles
They could fuck you in the ass 80 times and you don't even feel the fucking needles. They could fuck you in the ass 80 times
and you won't even know it no more. Listen,
I put Santan on my iPod and I
looked the other way. And two minutes later
the bitch bent my fucking arm up. I didn't feel
the fucking needle. I didn't feel the
fucking needle. So they let you put an iPod on?
You put an iPod on? I do it all the time. When I go to the dentist
I put something on. Why sit there and look at Bela Lugosi
when I could fucking...
Every fucking dentist looks like Bela Lugosi to me when fucking look at Bela Lugosi? Yeah, every fucking dentist
looks like Bela Lugosi to me
when they're looking
at your fucking mouth.
You know what I'm saying?
You don't feel rude
but just tuning out?
No, most dentists have TVs.
Right.
My fucking wife goes to a place
that has fucking big screen TVs
with headphones.
I stopped going to this one dentist
because he would ask me
stupid fucking questions.
Yeah, no.
You know,
you just weren't comfortable.
I'd have like really bad conversations,
like clunky conversations with him.
I was like...
When you got your fingers in my fucking mouth,
what is there to talk about?
Listen, let's understand each other.
I'm going to lay back and open my mouth.
Tap me when I'm fucking done
and I'll tap you if it hurts
because that's what they say.
Tap when you feel the drill or something.
You put the fucking iPod on,
you close your eyes.
You're not in there.
Eddie Bravo, what's happening, cocksucker?
You're a month away from having a kid,
you're sitting there like fucking Buddha with no fucking food.
Talk to me, cocksucker.
I love it.
Are you ready for this, man?
Are you ready?
You got to be fucking ready.
Don't tell me this shit, hell yeah.
You got to be ready.
Have you picked a name yet?
Don't tell me that you looked at a TV show on Discovery.
I want you to tell me you went to your uncle's house
and changed some diapers.
I've been wanting to have a kid for a while.
And we tried that.
This was planned.
This was not an accident.
I wanted a kid.
I'm proud of you.
I'm happy for you.
It's going to be a fascinating experience, man.
I see what it did for you.
I see what it did for you.
You're a different fucking man.
For sure.
Changed me as a human being.
First, it was the reefer.
When you came to me, you said you had the best ice cream sundae in your life the other night with Eddie Bravo.
The way you gave it to me, that was beautiful.
And then next thing you know, Mrs. Rogan came on the scene.
I seen the whole evolution.
Dude, I will never forget the day Eddie Bravo got me high.
We went and had ice cream sundae, and I had the most massive revelation of my life.
I couldn't believe how goddamn good that ice cream sundae tasted.
I mean, for me and you, that was the first time you ever straightened up.
Before then, you ever straightened up.
Before then, you were a fucking ape.
You were still bent over.
If I threw you a banana, you'd eat the fucking peel.
Seriously.
That day, after you ate that banana at Dairy Queen,
you were back.
You were back.
Your chest was up and shit.
Well, you guys know me.
I don't know me as well as you guys know me. Oh, please.
That was it.
You were walking on all fours until that fucking day.
I know I'm a different person.
I'm a lot more relaxed and everything.
But it must have been interesting much more for you to watch someone change their personality.
It's a fucking beautiful thing.
It's a fucking beautiful thing, man.
I love to see evolution.
I'm a people watcher.
I love to watch people shut your fucking mouth.
Don't say, shh.
Don't say nothing to him.
Let him walk into that hole.
Don't say nothing.
I think coming from my
background, doing martial
arts competitions my whole life and then just
transition right into comedy, I had never
relaxed. I never settled down.
I never learned how to just
be calm.
My whole body and my brain,
my personality, all developed
under duress. It all developed
under physical combat all the time on a regular basis.
Constant training, constant fights, constant tournaments.
That was my life from like the time I was 15 until I was like 22.
All my formative years was all spent in stress.
And I remember when I first decided that I wasn't going to fight anymore,
it was like the first time ever in my life when I was like 22.
It was my last kickboxing fight.
The first time ever where I could relax. I would always like be nervous. Like when
is the next tournament? When's the next fight? When's the next thing I got to get in shape? I
can't be drinking this. I can't be doing it. Couldn't live my life because I was always
worried about getting my ass kicked. I was always worrying about like, I have to make sure that I
do everything right. I got to be prepared. I don't want to get fucked up, you know? So it's like,
it's, it wasn't the best mindset to go into standup comedy for.
That's for sure.
It's like a constant battle.
Cause standup comedy,
you gotta,
it's totally the opposite.
You gotta not give a fuck.
You know,
you gotta,
you gotta be relaxed.
You gotta have fun.
Instead of be tense and ready to go at any moment's notice.
You know?
You sent me a,
by the way,
whatever you sent me doesn't work.
One of them doesn't work.
The other two do.
Check your emails.
Yeah. I just, you sent me two things and both of them are like movies that
are one second long what yeah brian it's amazing check it again dude i know it's i know it's good
my fucking resend it okay my fucking 15 to 22 my mind wasn't fighting my i wasn't a fighter but i
was in a different type of hell i was in in my own hell that I was putting myself into, you know?
And it's so weird that I became a comic, what, six, seven, eight years later or something like that.
And how I took that wildness into the fucking comic.
And nobody understood what I was saying until I met you guys at the store.
I found the fucking home.
I was always, I used to travel on the road with Tribble and do all these little road things.
I remember when I first met you at the store, everybody was fucking terrified of you.
Yeah, I was crazy.
Nobody.
You and I, I remember being like the only guy when I first met you that was like, he's great.
What are you talking about?
I love that guy.
And everybody was like, oh, here comes Joey Diaz.
Like, where is he at?
I would gravitate towards you.
Oh, I was crazy.
Because you didn't scare me.
You were nice to me.
I remember this.
You weren't a scary guy to me. You were nice to me. I didn't know this. You weren't a scary guy to me.
You were a regular dude.
You were like one of the only guys there that I could relate to.
There was like a lot of guys that I couldn't relate to.
I knew dudes like you.
You know what I mean?
Not you, but you and my friend Johnny B, the pool hustler.
Very similar characters, man.
Very, very similar characters.
You're both way out there.
You're both like not give a fuck guys and
you're both guys that were like polarizing some people would love you to death and then everybody
you know there was a large group of people that for whatever reason they'd be upset at you like
i remember having to defend you even the dom herrera even dom herrera was hating on you everybody
every and i don't get and i loved it i fucking loved it because that's why you know it's so
weird that this whole surgery thing really taught me about fear.
My fear has fucking done wonders for me.
Because that's why when I wake up in the morning, that's the first thing I fucking do is grab my fucking cock.
Because for years I was scared.
I'm always insecure.
That immigrant fucking thing shizzled into my fucking mind since the streets of New York City with the white kid.
The immigrant thing?
The immigrant thing.
Not knowing the language, not feeling good enough like everybody else, not being a fucking
American.
And it sits inside my fucking soul.
So for me, everything has been driven on fear.
Every time I get on stage, like the other night, fear was real in Chicago.
I got on stage in between the reefer and whatever was going on and the lights.
I got fearful, man.
But you know what?
That's normal to be scared.
That's a great emotion, especially when you're a stand-up comic.
Because the more scared you are, the better you're going to fucking do.
Especially in my case.
The more riled up I am, two minutes before I go on stage, the more energy I'm going to give that fucking audience.
But I've looked at my life and I've seen how much fear.
I was petrified to go
get that fucking needle even though i fucking knew nothing was gonna happen i was gonna walk out of
there but i went in i took the needle after i walked out of that needle i could have fucking
killed 10 fucking people with my bare hands because you overcome one of your biggest fucking
fears till this day i get little emails and people you know i suffer i suffer i suffer from a social
disorder and i don't know what to do.
Well, the answer ain't taking a fucking pill.
It's checking your fucking confidence and grabbing your balls and walking into a circle and saying, fuck it, I'm here.
You know, my mentality was always go into the mouth of the line and put a chair down and sit the fuck down and let the pieces fall where they may.
And if you're not going to live like that, fuck them all.
I'm at the store two fucking nights, Joe Rogan.
The first fucking night, Eddie Griffin bumps me. You know how embarrassing that is? You
become a regular on a Sunday. The first fucking night, you bring 11 people to come see you.
Your landlord comes, and you get bumped by Eddie Griffin. And the second night, I go
up there, and Steve Greenstein says to me, hey, last weekend, you fucking auditioned
here for Mitzi, and you said one of my jokes. I said, it's February fucking 11th. I just
come off a plane, January 29th,
and you're already accusing me of being a fucking thief.
And remember, he had his violin case.
Who?
Steve Greenstein.
I don't remember him.
It was a creepy guy, older guy that hung out at the Comedy Store,
and he had a violin case.
So this is a Tuesday night.
It's Black Night at the Comedy Store.
It's 8 o'clock.
The main room is packed, but the original room would be empty
because people were scared to go up there on Black Night
because they thought they were going to get fucking mugged. So the original room was always empty because people were scared to go up there on black night because they thought they were going to get mugged so the original room was always
empty so steve greenstein was up before me he get this is my second night the comedy store dog i
just got to l.a i'm a criminal i've been in prison i got all these problems but for the first
time in my life i got a little daylight at the comedy store this lady made me a regular all my
life people were like has mitchie shaw seen you has mitchie shaw seen you she's gonna make you a
regular i get down there.
I'm a regular.
This is the first time since my mother died I had any luck.
I had been in prison.
I had been divorced, shot, the whole fucking deal.
And the next thing you know, I become a regular.
It's Tuesday night, and I get off stage, and I'm waiting to hang out for a little while.
And Steve Greenstein comes up to me, and he says to me, dog, one of your jokes is like my joke.
I said, which one?
He said, something about O.J. Simpson's maid.
I go, dog, I didn't steal the joke from you.
I just fucking got here two weeks ago.
Wheels comes out.
He goes, this guy didn't steal the joke from you.
The only problem was the guy put the violin case behind his fucking legs when I spotted it.
So he starts threatening me.
He's like, dog, the next time you do that joke, we're going to have a problem.
I just pushed him, Joe Rogan.
He fell over the violin case.
Well, as he's falling down, Mitzi's limo pulls up.'s it i'm like i'm done this is my life i'm fucking gone out of here
i'm never gonna get another fucking spot again i'm gonna go back to selling fucking blow and
wheels got between us scott day got between us and mitzi came on go oh what happened here and
he started saying he goes no this kid's Cuban, blah, blah, blah.
But Mitzi seen the kid on the floor and fell in love with me after that
because I pushed that motherfucker.
She liked the fact you pushed him off?
Because I stuck up for myself, sure.
Yeah, you got lucky she was crazy.
Sure.
She liked all kinds of conflict.
If that happened at the fucking improv,
I would have been out on the fucking street.
How often did you perform at the improv?
Not for a while, right?
In those days, in those days, every week
because the guy, Richard Cooper Richard Cooper loved me the talent coordinator
But I got to LA January 29th. That was a regular at the store February 19th on my birthday
I didn't fuck around this town when I got here
But you couldn't do the improv admits he found out but I went to Scott day said dog Richard Cooper gives me spots
So I would go over there and I had a couple problems over there right off the fucking bat people thought they were cute over
There you know you leave your fucking girlfriend in the seat,
you go to the bathroom, you come back there talking to them like they know.
That is an issue.
You know, it's a fucking issue. You got to stop them like I told you, like Hitler in
Munich. If not, you're going to have a fucking problem, dog. So I would say things to people
and all of a sudden you're a bad fucking person. So what the fuck? I don't give a fuck. And
we're here 12 years later and we're still rocking and rolling. They can still suck my dick and call me shorty.
We're doing a show, if you're in town, Pasadena, this Thursday night.
Don't come if you're a stalker.
Thanks.

Yo, I'm fucking
driving next time I go to
LA. I'm not driving this time. Next time
I go to LA, though, I'm driving. Vegas.
Memorial Day weekend to see
Junio Dos Santos
against my man if he recovers from the surgery.
Yeah, I'm tired of fucking flying,
man. I would rather spend the four hours.
Let's take the big fucking Cadillac Escalade. Let's go out there.
I got a new one. I got one of these new Infinity
things. With the music and the whole fucking
thing. Hey, Brian, come here. Help me export
these things. It's not exporting right. But then they'll
pull us over like Snoop Dogg, those cocksuckers.
Every time they see Snoop Dogg, he gets pulled over.
If they smell you anywhere
near them, we're going to jail.
It's right here. Sup, EB?
What? I rock a shock
in the fucking house. I retweet the video.
Denny Pruittupus is here.
Fresh off his fucking 19 wins this Sunday.
Yeah. Gracie Nationals
was an epic day for Templar. Where was the Gracie Nationals. Yeah. Gracie Nationals was an epic day for Templar Jiu-Jitsu.
Where was the Gracie Nationals at?
The Gracie Nationals was in L.A. this past Sunday.
And Rose Gracie, the granddaughter of Helio Gracie,
the grandmaster of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu,
she decided to go old school with the Gracie Nationals.
She's been running it for the last few years
and she, you know, the whole point
system that jiu-jitsu tournaments
are run by are just
ridiculous. I mean, it's just
people are fighting for points and stalling
and it's ridiculous. And Rose
Gracie decided to, you know,
make her
the late
great Helio Gracie proud
and make it all just a submission-only tournament.
And these tournaments are becoming,
this format's becoming more and more popular.
They do it in the Pacific Northwest at the Sub League in Oregon,
and they run smoothly.
People have been afraid of sub-only tournaments
because of time constraints
and all that stuff. But Rose Gracie made it work. She had the balls to go no points, no
advantages, 15 minutes submission only. If you go 15 minutes without a submission, both
competitors are out of the tournament. So that's the ballsiest format there is out
there and and now the Gracie Nationals is the most prestigious submission only
tournament on the planet and I think that's the future for jiu-jitsu because
you know it was a lot more fun preparing for a submission only tournament all we
worked on was the fun stuff the good stuff about jiu-jitsu, the finish, the closing the deal, the working on our squeeze.
For the no-gi worlds, we had to spend time working on stalling techniques
because when you're playing a point game and it's like six-minute matches,
a guy will get a point or just a little advantage,
which is even less than a point.
And once they're up, an advantage they they'll hold and they won't do anything and people aren't used to wrestling with guys that are just
holding holding on to leads in class you don't just hold on to a lead there's no one's counting
points in class so you actually have to prepare for that you have specifically prepare for
tournaments that are run by points and um it's just so not fun preparing like stalling
techniques and stalling live drills and prepare whatever dude just holds on and
doesn't do anything it's ridiculous so Rose Gracie decided to eliminate all of
that and make the Gracie Nationals a submission only tournament and she's
also doing the Gracie Worlds in July, July 15th in San Jose, you know,
finally, you know, you're going to be able to get a world title in a submission only format,
which is the greatest. I mean, it's so much, it means so much more to win in a submission only
tournament than by points. You're a world champion and you won by an advantage
world champion.
Those days,
it does nothing for
the development of your jiu-jitsu.
It just gets you better
at holding and stalling out
and running out the clock.
It's just ridiculous.
So mad huge props
to Rose Gracie
and her husband Javi Vasquez
who put this tournament together
and you know
I think this is the future
I think a submission only format
is the only way to go
we're taking bias refs
completely out of the game
the refs have nothing to do with the game
so they have no time limits?
well there's no time limit in the final
but in the qualifying matches
it's a 15 minute time limit in the final. But in the qualifying matches, it's a 15-minute time limit,
which is plenty of time.
And if there is no submission in those 15 minutes, both guys are out.
So it's amazing.
We had so much fun.
Both guys are out.
So if two guys are just like Marcelo Garcia and Jake Shields,
they stall each other out.
They're both out.
Whoa, that's crazy.
But in the finals, no time limit.
We had some epic
matches epic matches um um 10 planet san francisco went 12 and one i had about you know maybe how
many affiliates you got now i got over 30 i lose track isn't that crazy you started out just doing
it as something to do you know like man what should i do maybe i could teach now and then boom
now you got like an empire man it was all an accident it's weird isn't it weird i thought i thought that that
when we were working on the man show we were gonna parlay that into some yeah we've trey parker matt
stone shit you know yeah but it was all a dream i used to read word up magazine salt and pepper
heavy d up in the limousine the next thing we're gonna going to do is we're going to get a fucking comedy club.
I decided while I was taking a shit today, high as fuck on a toilet bowl.
That's the next move.
The next move is a reality show about this fucking place, about doing a podcast and doing a comedy club and having it all connected.
The way we do it, man, when we have this show thursday night we have podcasts going on at
the same time as the comedy show and everybody just rotates in it's the greatest fucking thing
we've ever done the greatest thing we've ever done the perfect thing you go on stage man you're you're
already flowing like you got to go on stage right now boom yeah you'll be on you told the lucy
snorebrush story what is it what's the name lucy snowbush if you if you told that lucy snorebrush
story and then went on the stage now, you would be in prime.
That is the most ridiculous fucking thing I've ever told on your podcast.
It's the greatest story of all time.
People want Lucy Snorbusch t-shirts.
Oh, my God.
I broke into Lucy Snorbusch's room and ate her ass in the middle of the night.
They want that t-shirt.
Oh, my fucking God, man.
Yeah, it was ridiculous.
We've got some yells on here.
And then we got Vegas Friday fucking night.
Yeah. We were in Chicago. Like I said, this was We've had some yells on here. And then we got Vegas Friday fucking night. Yeah.
We were in Chicago.
Like I said, this was the biggest show we had ever done.
And it was pretty crazy.
I made a video of how fucking crazy it was.
Brian, throw that shit up.
Look how big this place is.
I don't know if you can tell.
Thank you very much, everybody.
Thanks for coming out.
Thank you, Chicago.
Look at the size of this place.
This was the biggest show I've ever done in my life. What do I tell you? Wow. Look at the size of this place.
Wow.
How long did you do?
An hour and 22 minutes.
We stayed outside and signed pictures for fucking hours, man.
I had to pay those security. I had to pay like $2,000 extra, man. I had to pay those security.
I had to pay like $2,000 extra in security because I had to keep them around.
That's incredible. Because union is like laws.
They have rules.
You have to pay people.
Play the second one.
The second video is ridiculous.
This is when we were signing, and this is all just a line of people that were waiting to take pictures
with Joey and Duncan and sign posters.
Mike Maxwell made a poster just for the event and check this shit out.
This is bonkers man.
This is when we were in the upstairs balcony area.
This place is fucking huge, the Chicago Theater.
At one point in time, it was a silent movie house.
It was built in 1921.
Sinatra performed there in 87.
Little Esther's father took the mother there to see Sinatra in 87.
Holy shit.
When he was forgetting his lyrics and the wig was crooked and shit.
But he was still motherfucking Sinatra, Jack.
He was still banging bitches two at a time.
Sinatra died before Viagra kicked in.
He missed the boat.
He missed the boat.
Those grumpy old men, they couldn't get any pussy anymore.
There was no reason to perform.
It was all over.
Even though he was Sinatra, he only got a hard-on like once a month at the end.
He was still getting pussy with the wig like a pimp, dawg.
Look at this.
Thanks for coming out, everybody. can you rotate that brian there's obviously
something wrong with the iphone well the way the iphone interpreted it can't you rotate that no
not on the fly not okay but look how nutty that is you know why it does that right joe
because it's a piece of shit no no no before you hit record look icon. If it's tilted sideways, it's going to record it sideways.
Oh, okay.
Look how nutty that is, man.
That's just all the people waiting to get into line to take pictures and shit.
That was a fun fucking time.
Thank you.
That one dirty freak that pulled her tits out and had everybody sign her tits.
Tremendous.
She had great tits.
Hey, dog.
She had great tits.
She had great tits.
Don't put it down. They were nice 24-year-old firm little fucking chichis and shit. She had great tits. She had great tits. Don't put it down.
They were nice 24-year-old firm little fucking chichis.
She was a freak.
Chichis.
She had a little boyfriend that looked like fucking what's the guy you like?
Bruno Mars.
Bruno Mars.
And this freak was ready to go, Jack.
I want to be your man.
Yeah, didn't somebody throw that guy under the bus?
Who was it?
Jaden James used to date.
Is that Bruno Mars that sings that song?
Yeah, well, it's Bruno Mars and the other guy, right?
Yeah.
There's two guys.
Yeah.
Who's the other one?
I can't remember.
There's the rapper guy and then the singer guy.
Which one is which?
Great fucking tune, whoever the hell it is.
Did you hear about those English people that got arrested at the airport?
No.
You didn't hear about this shit?
Dude, it's one of the fucking weakest things I've ever heard ever about the TSA.
It's sad what this country has become.
These English people, they were coming over here for a vacation,
so they joked around and they said,
hey, we're going to go over to America and we're going to fucking destroy America.
We're going to dig up Marilyn Monroe's body.
I mean, it sounds like some shit that Joey Diaz would say if he was British, right?
We're going to come over here.
We're going to have a fucking party.
This is what they wrote.
I'm going to destroy America and dig up Marilyn Monroe.
That's what this dude said
on his Twitter. They came over here to party.
That's all. TSA, check
them for shovels, these dumb fucks.
They went, you're going to dig
up Marilyn Monroe. We're going to catch you.
Oh, did they tweet this or something?
Yeah, they tweeted it. So now they're looking at her Twitter.
Yeah, man. They tweeted it.
They're 26 years old, man. They're looking at her Twitter. Yeah, man. They tweeted it. They're 26 years old, man.
They're kids.
They went to party, man.
Department of Homeland Security.
Way to go, you fuckheads.
These silly fucks.
They're supposed to be protecting us.
They pulled aside this cute punk rock looking British couple.
They look like sweethearts.
You know, I mean, it's just, I mean, look at this.
This is what the dude wrote.
Free this week for a quick gossip prep before I go and destroy America?
That's the question.
Like a joke.
He's going here to have a fucking party.
Like he's going to destroy America.
Jesus Christ.
And they checked the shovels.
They sent them back home, man.
What?
Not only that, they arrested them,
locked them up with Mexican drug dealers
that they also caught for 12 fucking hours.
Because they're immigrants.
They threw them in with the other immigrant criminals.
They threw them in with Mexican drug dealers
that they busted.
So these guys were locked up
with real hardcore criminals for 12 fucking hours.
And then they flew them back to europe fucking soon
unbelievable it's unbelievable i mean really you can't have one rational person who looks at those
two and giggles and it starts laughing his it was his what he writes also three weeks today we're
totally in la pissing off people in hollywood boulevard and digging up Marilyn Monroe. Ha ha. He's joking around, man.
Really?
This is our tax dollars going to work?
This is 2012.
We're not talking about 1950, like we jumped into a time machine and all of a sudden they
have Twitter in 1950.
What?
They're going to destroy America.
We've got to act now.
I think it was just to set an example.
Like, we're going to fuck anybody up that plays around.
I think it's a bully and an abuse of power. That's what it is. I don't think it's an example. We're going to fuck anybody up that plays around. I think it's a bully and an abuse of power. That's what
it is. I don't think it's an example at all.
I think they knew these were kids and they could fuck
with them if they wanted to. I think they found someone
to fuck with. They found someone to fuck with
and then they did. It's really
sad. They came here
to have fun, you fuckheads.
Jesus Christ. They checked them for
fucking shovels. They're
checking Twitter for joke things that you say.
Joke tweets about coming to America and getting fucked up.
Like, do you really think that that's what a terrorist would write?
Hmm, this week, free for a quick gossip before I go destroy America.
Like, yeah, that's what you have to worry about?
That's where our tax dollars are going?
What do you think about Anonymous?
Listen, man, somebody needs to stand up for this fucking...
Stand up to this wacky world that we're living in, man.
And what anonymous represents is the internet.
What the internet represents most of the time is justice.
Most of what they go after, most of what they do is the right thing.
There's a lot of shit going on like this Dana White thing
where they're hacking into his social security and putting it all online. That that's douchey shit i heard it was fake i heard it was
wrong no it wasn't fake they got the information but what they don't understand first of all that
is his dad's name dana white as well and they got a lot a lot of the information they got was his
dad's including like liens and you know where his dad used to live and now some other guy got harassed
because uh they you know because his information got put live and now some other guy got harassed because uh they
you know because his information got put online so this guy like dana had to go to this guy's house
and apologize to him but the kid is apparently a 13 year old kid from australia i mean he doesn't
represent anonymous he represents people on the internet that don't like when people on the
internet challenge them you know like you say you can't hack me i dare you they're gonna hack you
yeah you know they're gonna fucking hack you but They're going to fucking hack you. But that's not what I like about Anonymous.
What I like is that what it represents is people feel fucking helpless.
They feel helpless to this gigantic oppressive power that is controlling the world and running
things in a way that they don't like.
And when these guys go after Department of Homeland Security, all these different websites,
when these guys try to take things down, what they're doing is they're lashing out and they're saying, hey, we can touch you.
We can reach you.
We can find your information.
Like when they went after that guy that pepper sprayed all those fucking kids in the face, those kids at UC Berkeley that were just sitting on their knees.
They got all that guy's information.
They put that shit online.
That I like.
That I like because that lets that guy know, hey, you can't do morally fucked up things because you're doing it under the blanket of your job, the umbrella of protection that you think has offered you by being a police officer.
You're doing something reprehensible, man.
You're spraying kids in the face with chemicals, you piece of shit.
For no reason.
Yeah, and you got to feel that, man.
You got to feel that, man.
And you know what, man?
I saw a video where the people were trying to justify, like, listen, this is what happened.
This is the full story. What you saw was edited. And you know what they saw? They saw a video where the people were trying to justify. Like, listen, this is what happened. This is the full story.
What you saw was edited.
And you know what they saw?
They saw the kids just sitting there for longer.
Yeah, they didn't move when they were told to move.
That doesn't mean you get to spray them in the fucking face.
I heard there was some shit in, was it Oakland the other day?
And the cops were arrested, like, a crazy amount of people, like 120 or 30 people.
But they were tear gassing.
And there was, like, kids there.
Like, one, I don't think it's probably the best idea to be bringing your kids to things
like this.
Yeah.
But people are assholes for bringing their kids to these rallies because these things,
they, things can break out in violence at any moment, especially in Oakland.
Oakland's kind of crazy, man.
Too short.
Yeah.
Short dog.
Um, yeah.
Oakland is, is not to be fucked with, right?
Oakland's a tricky place.
You know what I mean?
That's been a hub for that shit for the last 40 years.
They have no, you know, since they play it every year,
that's where they go up there.
These people know how to react to it.
They're sick and tired of it too, you know?
And it takes two to fucking tangle.
But I love the idea of somebody checking somebody.
Yeah.
I've always loved the idea.
Listen, man, I grew up on fucking Death Wish.
You know what?
The cops can't be there for you all the fucking time.
I love the idea of somebody blasting a motherfucker when you fucking do something wrong.
And the internet's the best way.
I love it.
I love it.
I think the internet is eventually going to be the government.
That's what I think.
I think the way that we're going to govern things is through the internet.
Because instead of these oppressive groups that, see, what really fucks
us is that we don't really get a say in everything. What we get to do is we get a representative. We
get to choose a representative. And they almost all get into office and immediately just do
whatever the fucking corporations that got them into power asked them to do. That's what they do
immediately. They pass a bunch of bills like the National Defense Authorization Act that everybody's going crazy about that Obama passed, that he said he would veto.
All of that stuff is stuff.
If you put that for vote to America, like online, what do you guys want to do?
No fucking way we would vote for that.
You can arrest us and detain us with no warrant.
Because what people have to realize is the people that you're saying yes to
today, when you make a law and you say, okay, here's the law, these people today may not be
the same people you're saying yes to 20 years from now, or even 10 years from now. You can put
laws into place that give evil, corrupt people. I'm not saying Obama's evil and corrupt, but I'm
saying what he did is an evil and corrupt thing. And he opened the door for evil and corruption,
no doubt about it.
Because if someone wants to do that, some future douchebag, some Dick Cheney of the
future, if he gets into a position and the National Defense Authorization Act is in place,
guess what?
A bunch of people are gonna go to fucking jail that are just protesting the government.
A bunch of people are gonna go to jail for obstructing the way the United States runs.
They're gonna go to jail as enemies of the state.
That's real shit.
None of that would take place if the internet was how we did our government.
It sounds ridiculous, but why shouldn't it be that way?
What our government is supposed to represent is what the people want.
What the people want can easily be found out on the internet.
It's easiest.
The easiest way to contact people and find out exactly what the fuck they want,
regardless of nationality, regardless of the state where they live in, is the Internet.
That is how things are going to be ruled.
It used to be you had to go to a place, you had to write down what you thought and put it in a fucking box.
And that's how they decided things.
Because that was the only way to do it.
The only problem with that, though, is there's more opportunity for hacking and things like that, unfortunately.
Now, right now there is.
Yeah.
But you know what?
That can be worked that, unfortunately. Now, right now there is. Yeah. But you know what? That can be worked out too.
And you know what?
That's also, in part, a lot of that is in place also because of corruption.
Look at the fucking computerized voting machines.
Yeah.
If you don't know about this, watch a documentary called Hacking Democracy.
It was something that was on HBO a while back where they showed that these machines,
these Diebold machines, are designed to be altered.
They're designed so that a third party can come in and change the results.
And they're so fucked up they changed their name.
Diebold doesn't even Diebold anymore.
I'll find out what the fuck their names are now so you can't be tricked.
But we live in a corrupt system.
And what the internet recognizes is that the will of the people is not being represented.
What's being represented is the corporations.
And that's why everybody's hovering around all these fucking – I mean what this Occupy thing is.
Everyone's hovering and collecting and gathering together around all these sick areas.
Yes.
Yeah, man.
Bullshit.
We had Too Short on a podcast last night and it was really amazing short the
rapper the rapper uh he has like 19 albums out but one of the cool things uh hearing him talk
about was uh he started off so early in the game that people didn't even know what rap was
and like he would just like open up his uh car doors to and like have like a beat playing and
just rap you know like really loud you know and with it and like one guys came up to end, like have like a beat playing and just rap, you know, like really loud,
you know,
with it.
And like one guys came up to him.
It's like,
man,
I like that.
I want to have that.
And then he just popped the cassette and sold it to him for five bucks.
And then he started selling it to like all the drug dealers want heard about it.
And they're like,
that lived in Oakland,
like all the,
the kingpin guys.
And so they all wanted their own personalized rap,
uh,
cassette.
So then he was like making, like having to write all these songs like nonstop just to keep up with all these drug.
How'd you guys have them on the podcast?
Who knows them?
We had Kevin Black on his sex tape guy who, you know, he's the one that gets all the sex tape, like the Paris Hilton sex tapes and stuff like that.
He's one of the only guys that has even seen the Tupac's sex tape.
And he's friends with him And he's friends with him.
He's friends with him.
With two shorts.
With two shorts.
What's up with that Tupac sex tape?
It's too sexy.
White girls or African Americans?
I don't know.
I didn't ask.
Why can't he release it?
Tupac's family?
Yeah, I think it was a family thing.
I think the powers would be...
All right, Diebold's changed its name
to Premier Election Solutions Incorporated, or P-E-S-I. That's the powers of the... All right, Diebold's changed its name to Premier Election Solutions
Incorporated, or P-E-S-I.
That's the new Diebold. Isn't it funny when
companies do that? They get caught doing something fucked
up, so they just change their name.
Yeah, we're evil, but whatever.
Yeah, you got to.
Blackwater did the same thing. They changed their name.
What's their name now? I'll find out.
How far do you think Anonymous can go? Do you think they could ever
get shut down? No, it's impossible. The idea... I think a lot of people get you think Anonymous can go? Do you think they could ever get shut down?
No, it's impossible.
The idea, because I think a lot of people get confused what Anonymous is.
The whole point why they can't get shut down, because no one knows who the fuck they are.
Can't they figure it out?
There's tons of people, though.
Won't they start arresting people?
It would be the most impossible thing. That would be like trying to have an army put together that attacks the whole world.
It would be like World War.
For real, World War.
This is crazy. Blackwater's so fucked up they changed their name twice.
They went from Blackwater to XE
and then they went from XE
to Academi
with a new logo.
They just keep changing their name.
They figure just, no one's gonna know.
Just keep changing it.
Stopping Anonymous would be like, yeah, they could
spend all this money and time and they'll find some
13-year-old in Australia and then there's
like a million other people behind that guy.
What can they do
to prosecute people that they catch
and how far they can go as far as shutting
things down and controlling the infrastructure.
That's what people are worried about with this SOPA.
With this SOPA, what they're worried about, again,
it's not the people you're saying yes to today.
They might not be the same people you're saying yes to 20 years from now.
And if you give the government the ability to just shut down websites, which, by the way, they already do.
Look what they just did with Mega Upload.
They just closed down Mega Upload.
I'm so bummed about Mega Upload closing too.
It was a good website.
Okay, but let's play devil's advocate.
They closed Mega Upload because they said that Mega Upload has a bunch of different illegal files on it,
like wares, and they have a bunch of movies and shit, screeners and MP3s.
If there's a website, should, and if you're offering that service to people where they can just upload shit,
and then you sell advertisement, which they do, right?
Isn't that how they work, that shit?
And they sell subscriptions?
I think if you have a free account, there's limitations and they serve advertising.
I think they also have a paid account
that I don't think has advertising.
But I think what it is
is that it shouldn't be the company's fault.
It should be the user.
So yes, they find dances with wolves
on Mega Upload's server.
They find out who uploaded it.
They bust him.
I don't think it should be Mega Upload's fault
for having a service where you can... It's legally, you're supposed to share files.
Okay, but let's play devil's advocate.
Let's play devil's advocate.
Okay.
If you do have a service where you're just sharing files and providing bandwidth, you should be responsible for how much of that stuff is pirated.
Because otherwise, you're a distribution angle.
You're essentially a distribution highway for illegal shit.
I think maybe, yes, you should be. But I think it should be more of like, I don't know. distribution angle you're you're essentially a distribution highway for illegal shit i think
maybe yes you should be but i think it should be more of like i don't know sharing of uh personal
information if you are doing something illegal should be allowed maybe sharing a person meaning
like if if if the fbi comes to mega up low and goes look we know that you have dances with wolves
on your server and they're like okay we need to know who this user is i think then mega upload should be like okay here's the
person's information really you think they should give you up if you're doing illegal stuff i don't
think it should be mega uploads fault i don't think mega upload as a corporation should be
shut down for a business because you want to share dance with wolves well you know better the
corporation be shut down than the users going to jail that's the other devil's advocate is that
these are just kids and they don't know any better
and they think they're going to get away with it and they think they're just helping people out
by providing files that everybody wants to get a hold of.
You know, look, the real problem is people have kind of grown up knowing that they can get shit for free now.
You know, that's like sort of how people feel.
They feel like shit is free.
You know, hey, I can get movies for free.
They joke around about it.
I've had people joke around on my own website
about stealing my shit online.
They think it's cute.
You know, yeah, I'll get the torrent, LOL.
You know, and you're like, wow.
Like, right in front of you,
knowing that you, I mean, I don't,
it's just, it is what it is.
That's who you want to be?
That's all good.
But it's like, they're so accustomed to stealing
that they talk about it openly
in front of the person's face on the website of the person who's selling the shit.
Yeah, but that's just called ignorance and stupidity.
But yeah.
But it's also they feel obligated, not obligated.
They feel like they're entitled.
You know what?
It shouldn't be throwing people in prison.
I don't think it should be like, yeah, you were sharing Dance of the Wolves with seven other people.
And I don't think that person should go to prison for 20 years.
I think you should have some kind of thing like maybe, all right,
you're not allowed to have the internet for a year.
Well, that's the Kevin Mitnick punishment.
That's what they did to him.
But the real issue, Brian, is that that actually has crushed industries.
Like look at the music industry.
The music industry is fucked.
One of the things that Dana White,
Dana White actually wants to come on the podcast,
and he wants to talk about Soul,
but he wants to talk about all the shit that happened.
You know, I talked about interviewing him.
I go, let me interview you for UFC.com.
He goes, you know what would be better?
Let's do your podcast.
I said, all right, we'll do it.
That's cool.
So we're going to figure out when to do it.
And so, look, he's totally into free speech.
He just doesn't want anybody ripping off his fucking product.
And then, you know, the amount of piracy is so widespread that people were actually pirating streams and then showing them
in bars and charging people to go to those bars to watch pirated streams there's definitely the
cases like that that obviously that's that should be attacked well there's also people that put
streams up and then they sell advertising they have google ads yeah and they actually you know
don't it's not just like a free thing they're making money off of the stream right you know that's that's a big
there's a big difference between that that person who's putting that up there and making money from
people you know thousands of people that are coming to the site and the person who's 14 years
old can't afford the ufc who's downloading it for free yeah so that's what the real issue is what
they're really what they're really concerned about is the people that are actually profiting off pirating their shit.
And so it's a tricky thing.
My take on it has always been that the internet, without a doubt, has promoted me and helped me more than anything.
So the more people that have stolen my stuff means the more people who have enjoyed my stuff, which means the more people will come to see me.
The more people will come like this Chicago show or anything else.
I mean, it's the purpose for...
We could easily charge for this podcast.
I mean, somebody would probably be willing to pay.
We know a lot of people that make a lot of money every month because of their podcast.
They have subscriptions where they have one extra podcast they do every month.
But I think the best way to do it is to give as much people as much shit for free as possible.
But that's also because we're live performers.
That's how we see it.
We're live performers.
The key for us is come out and see us, man.
Devil's Advocate on the UFC thing is that, honestly, it's $60.
And nowadays, there's like two or three UFCs a a month sometimes even to me i like the ufc
to a bit like i i know if i was a hardcore ufc guy i would order every single it's a lot of money
you know that's a lot i don't agree with you i mean i don't argue with you that's 180 dollars
i think sometimes every week i think that if ufc was smart and a lot of these people would smart
they would do a subscription-based thing like you're paying 20 bucks a month you get everything
ufc you know what else would be kind of dope?
If they had it like the way HBO pay-per-view has it, where you, if you, like, don't want to watch Oscar de la Hoya fight or Floyd Mayweather fight on HBO pay-per-view, next week, the next Friday, it's for free on HBO.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
That would be pretty dope.
I agree with that.
You know, if, like, they had, like, huge cards, cards, like say Alistair Overeem fights Junior Dos Santos,
and it's a big pay-per-view card, how about throw it on Fox the next Friday?
You know, you could watch a replay.
And that way also they'll know that they're going to put on some badass fight.
So if it's one of those fights that's not the most entertaining fight.
I mean, live fights are much better, sure, for Fox.
Maybe it's not Fox.
Maybe it's an FX thing, showdown FX, the week after.
Not a bad idea.
But the thing about MMA is a lot of people buy the replays.
They'll buy it again, and they'll buy it later.
They'll hear about how good it is, and they'll buy the replay.
That probably is a venue thing.
That kills it for about two weeks.
What's that?
That kills it about two weeks.
So you've got to get all the money you can.
What he was doing over the years is after a fight,
they would put it up to UFC Unleashed maybe six months in.
Now they fucking put it up at UFC Unleashed a month later.
Yeah, that's good.
That's really fucking good.
Yeah, that's good.
So the fight, not this week, but let's say Nick Diaz against Nate Diaz against Cerrone.
You know, I want to see that.
It'll be on this month.
Yeah.
That was New Year's. It'll be on this month. Yeah. That was New Year's.
It'll be on first week of February.
I miss all those Spike guys.
Those guys were awesome.
Well, you know, like I said, right now is the best time.
Listen, right now is the best time ever for an MMA enthusiast.
Yeah, it is.
A guy like me.
Look, I go home right now.
I tape UFC tonight.
I tape fucking Pride with Kendra Perez from 9 nine to ten which it's better than the uh
the prides they were doing before they eliminated a lot of shit that you didn't need to see right
and now they even cut it down they got crow cop against uh the russian i've been watching
some attention yeah oh is that my house yeah my heads have almost exploded. Not to mention, you know, you got the roundtable with Jay.
You got, you know, late night fucking UFC Reloaded,
which those are fucking lightning quick.
Okay, so let's see the Ben Henderson fight against Frank Yeager's the 25th.
It'll be on by the last week of March.
Plus, you got fucking, they got the contract on Spike until the end of 2012.
So on Wednesdays,
you can watch fucking all fights
all fucking day.
And you know Spike,
anything that fucking FX does now,
they counter it.
Like this week,
they had all of Rashad's fights.
Believe it or not,
a couple people fucking watched that shit.
I think it's good.
This is good.
I'm fucking happy.
I don't miss a fucking thing.
My DVR is UFC Reloaded,
UFC Tonight.
You know, tonight is the countdown at 6 o'clock fucking Pacific,
9 o'clock Eastern.
They're giving you a ton of fucking MMA.
Why you got to fucking steal something for?
What the fuck you got to steal something for?
Now, what else can they fucking give you?
On the music tip, what I found for me personally,
like with iTunes and Torrance, is not only because people, I mean, the whole industry,
the record industry just fell apart,
but what's happening, and I know they gotta feel this,
but I'm buying all my old shit on iTunes.
I don't wanna pull out the CDs
and load them into my computer
and then upload them to my iPod.
I just wanna get on my phone,
and I think of a song that I already have from my old
record collection.
I'm rebuying all my old shit.
What about that?
You know, I know, you know, we're not buying as many CDs, but I think people are buying
all the old shit.
I bought Stairway to Heaven about 30 times in my life.
Yeah, there's definitely a few CDs I've bought 10 times.
Right?
I don't want to.
I don't want to.
I know you can get it for free somewhere, but I know people just like let me go iTunes 99 cents make it so you
have money you know for like really poor college kids they do exactly that but
they go to a where site or they go to a torrent you know the good bit does even
where sites anymore it's so cheap even on iTunes yet they finally fucking said
yeah there's a couple bands that still to this day. They were just got on it recently
Pink Floyd a couple bands. Well, why not? I don't understand. I don't know weird
You know those old motherfuckers are set in 1970
So I think just like like Red Band said when it's something that you can download illegally like music or movies or anything
that you can download illegally like music or movies or anything,
just sell it for as cheap as possible
so that you got to sell it
so that it's not worth going and downloading.
Well, that's what Louis C.K. did.
When Louis C.K. did,
he sold his whole special for five bucks.
You'll get that money.
You'll get that money.
I will never spend $180 on a UFC a month,
but if I were the option for 20 bucks a month
and I got everything, I would do it even if I never watched option for $20 a month and I got everything,
I would do it
even if I never watched it.
$20 a month.
Listen, man,
what Louis C.K. did...
Bitch, you crazy.
Well, that's because
they get a lot more people.
Yeah, but you're just used...
They get a lot more people.
They get a lot more people.
You're just so used
to a pricing structure
that was created by boxing
in the 80s
because pay-per-view
was so amazing back then.
Ryan, if you had...
What?
If you had any idea
how much it cost
to put on a production,
you would understand
why they have to charge so much. It's ridiculous. Yeah, but if you have $20, you'd sell more. Ryan, if you had any idea how much it costs to put on a production, you would understand why you have to charge so much.
It's ridiculous.
Yeah, but if you had 20 bucks, you'd sell more.
No, you wouldn't.
You wouldn't sell enough to compensate.
I don't think so.
What Louis C.K. did, Joe Rogan, was the most brilliant thing a comedian has done in 20
years.
Yeah, he gambled his own money.
He's like anonymous.
He checked everybody.
Yeah, he checked the whole system.
Comedy Central got checked.
iTunes got checked.
By the way, I'm doing the same thing.
I'm working on it right now.
You have to.
I'm thinking about doing it in Atlanta in April.
That's my plan.
You have to.
What, it gave it away for free or something?
Five dollars for a DVD.
But here's the beauty of it, man.
Everybody benefited on this, but nobody benefited as much as the fans.
Louis did it for his fans.
Yeah.
Five bucks for a download.
Is that what it was?
Yeah.
Or for the actual hard copy?
I think you get a download. Well, that's all you need. That's all you need. Yeah. Five bucks for a download. Is that what it was? Yeah. Or for the actual hard copy? I think you get a download.
Well, that's all you need.
That's all you need.
Yeah.
That's it.
I think you get to download it more than once, too.
Make it so cheap that they can't refuse.
What did he make on it?
What's the number?
Who knows?
It was a million dollars after 10 days.
And that's the idea of the UFC 20 bucks a month thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't think they would do it that way.
It's not ready for 20 a month.
No.
They're two years, three years away.
But I think that a subscription, like a monthly subscription, is not a bad idea.
You know, that would be pretty cool.
Sure.
And you get everything.
You get the webpage.
You get the, what's the club?
What's the fight club?
Fight club.
Fight club.
Don't they have like a thing that they do that with the NFL?
They have NFL packages that you get on DirecTV.
Yes.
You get like all the games.
All the games.
Yeah.
They make a ton of fucking money.
Well, you know, they came real close to having a UFC channel.
They were going to have a UFC fucking channel at one point in time.
They were thinking about buying a Spike TV or something along those lines
and starting their own channel.
And that might very well be the future.
Who knows?
After they're done with the Fox deal or they might do it with Fox.
Who knows how all this comes together?
The Fox things are strange, man.
It's the same, but it's not the same. It's the same, but there's all this extra together. You know, the Fox things are strange, man. It's the same, but it's not the same.
It's the same, but there's like all this extra talking.
You know, I see all this sitting around the desk and all this shit,
and I watched it, and I was like, I feel like, you know,
the way we did it Spike style, they could slide in another fight.
You know, there's some badass fights in that undercard, man.
You know, they could have slid in that Charles Oliveira.
Cub Swanson.
Cub Swanson.
I knock out, yeah.
Fucking a ton of shit that we could have slid in there. Yeah, they could have slid something that Charles Oliveira. Cub Swanson. Cub Swanson. Knock out, yeah. Fucking a ton of shit that we could have slid in there.
Yeah, they could have slid something in there instead of everybody talking.
I would rather not talk other than, you know, I mean, look,
everybody knows what it is.
I'll hype it up in the beginning and everything like that,
but I want to get that fucking walk-in going.
Let's go, baby.
Let's go.
You know, I can hype everything up plenty while these dudes are walking
into the octagon.
I can answer any questions or propose any possible scenarios.
I just want the fucking fight to take place i say the less talking the better but i think they're used to like
desks and shit fox is used to like dudes with paper in front of them let's go over this
it's crazy listening to the super bowl that's super bowl music with ufc
they get mad that's not super bowl music. That's Fox Sports music.
Well, that's the music you hear.
They get all crazy.
By the way, Joe Diaz, your special is $5.
Yes.
We should mention that.
Yes, but let me tell you something.
The first card.
It's me or the priest, right?
Yes, it's either you or the priest.
The first card.
How do they get that?
Payloads.
Payloads.
But hold on.
Payloads what?
I like the UFC, bro.
And I like what they do.
As a fan, I like what they do.
I really like everything about it.
You know, when I watch fucking Showtime, I got to lower the fucking volume, okay?
And when I watch Fox, I don't mind Kenny Florian there.
The other guy is like a miniature fucking Joe Rogan with his little haircut
and his little fucking suit.
He looks like Joe Rogan on news radio.
He looks like Joe Rogan on news radio.
All he needs is a pointy fucking sideburns, right?
But it's so weird that, what the fuck was I talking about?
Anyway.
Who knows?
The first Fox fight was a fucking nightmare.
We went to it.
You were kind enough to give myself and Eddie tickets.
First off, the fight started at 6.
Nothing happened until 6.40.
That's too much, Joe Rogan.
I can't sit there for 40 minutes when I'm psyched up.
Everybody else is talking.
At least now, they're giving you three fucking fights.
Live, especially live.
Live.
40 minutes we sat there.
No national anthem, no peanuts.
Nobody get down here and give you a fucking drink.
We didn't know what to do.
You can't get up.
You can't pee.
We don't know when the fucking next fight is.
Yeah, they didn't treat it the way we always treat a regular live event.
But the last two have been tremendous.
This last one was beautiful.
I taped the Fox thing.
I taped the Fuel.
But isn't it crazy that the main fights, except for the Bisping-Sunnet fight, which is pretty exciting,
the main fights weren't as exciting as the fights in the undercard.
Bro, it's the curse of Fox.
You know what I'm saying?
You don't have to crawl.
The curse of fucking Fox.
No, it'll be fine.
Look, that FX fight.
That Melvin Gillard, Jim Miller fight.
That was tremendous.
That was bad.
Jim Miller's a fucking animal, dude.
Jim Miller's an animal.
God damn that dude.
Dude, Melvin was lighting him up.
He was.
We've never seen Jim Miller.
He caught him with some shots.
Yeah.
Jim Miller can take it, though, man.
He can take it.
And the way he took that back.
Woo!
He dove on that back mount, man.
I've always been scary from those guys from that side of the woods in Jersey.
They come out to Creedence Clearwater and shit like that.
Bum, bum, ba-dum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
Close to Pennsylvania.
Those motherfuckers will kill you, dog.
That other side of New Jersey.
That's the woods.
I love it.
You might as well be living in Tennessee.
You might as well be living in Georgia.
There's good people over there.
Yeah, that's fucking different up there.
Wyckoff, wherever the fuck he's from. Yeah, that's fucking different He hunts all the time Wyckoff
Wherever the fuck he's from
Yeah that's a different angle
Yeah Jim Miller's a hunter
You know
You don't think of that
When you think of Jersey
Like outdoorsman hunters
You got the Jersey Shore
You got those crazy
Fucking mountain men
And you got Northern New Jersey
That's it
You got Milburn
Yeah totally different
Three different fucking
Continents in one
The Jersey Shore
They're just passing off VD
I give
Dude I just I just started watching Jersey Shore, and I fucking love it.
I fuck Snooki and Dina.
Oh, my God.
You love it?
For real?
I'm addicted to it.
Why?
Because they're so retarded.
I love watching.
I mean, Snooki and Dina are the female versions of Beavis and Butthead.
And they're like, for real.
They're actually alive.
You know, it's not animation.
These are real people.
No, but Eddie, they're set up.
It's fake reality.
Sometimes.
Well, whatever it is.
Hold on.
Did you see Snooki get punched?
That shit was not fake.
That was real.
That was what?
Season one or season two?
Yeah.
But yeah, but the majority of the shit now is like, hey, we're going to put Snooki inside
this barbershop and this barbershop is super gay because we casted him gay, you know, and
it's just going to be ridiculous.
Yeah.
And it's completely fake.
And you know what's even worse about the whole fucking Jersey Shore thing?
It's that new movie, Three Stooges. How many? This is
a classic franchise that's been
rebooted. In the trailer,
fucking Snooki's in it. I love
Snooki. This is disturbingly disgusting.
I love her. I just want her to talk.
Her and Dina? Oh my god.
Dina is her best friend.
She's amazing.
It's incredible.
All they do every episode is,
there's going to be a part in the episode
where they're all getting ready to go out
and they're all doing their fucking hair
and putting on their makeup.
They go to Karma and it's the same shit.
You know what's crazy about it is,
they are so retarded
that you would think with all the cameras,
with all the cameras and all their fame, that they would have girls crawling all over them.
The girls would?
You would think the guys would have girls crawling all over them.
But it's not what you think.
It's like girls don't want to go back to that house and be on TV.
They're going to get fucked.
Not only are they going to get fucked, they're going to look like losers.
Yeah, it's incredible. They go out and sometimes they don't get pussy. They're going to get fucked. Not only are they going to get fucked, they're going to look like losers. It's incredible.
They go out and
sometimes they don't get pussy. They got cameras
all over them and they're
super famous.
They have fucking bad nights and the girls
are banging on regular fucking
skeezes that they've
been banging for a long time.
They're incredible.
What do you think about Big Edge though? You you know what as good as jersey shore is as good as jersey shore is
the best show on tv nothing fucks with mob wives dude if you haven't watched mob wives go fuck
yourself that is the big watch that you watch you gotta watch you gotta watch it many times
did you watch you know the problem is i knew too many of those women. Those women that knew guys that were in and they would fucking threaten you.
I'll fucking make one phone call right now.
These bitches are just fighting each other every episode.
They have money.
They're in their 40s.
You would think they would have some class.
But they're like, fuck you.
The last episode.
You need to go on their Twitters.
Oh, yeah, I do.
I follow all of them.
The one with the wife,
the one who's divorced,
and she keeps calling her ex-husband.
This man disrespected me.
Which one?
Dorita?
The fat one with the big head.
Oh.
Oh, wait a minute.
She had that big Ralphie May head.
Is her husband out of jail or in jail?
Her husband divorced her.
I don't know.
I think he was about to go to jail again.
The dark one.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's Renee.
He's Puerto Rican.
Renee, she looks like Skeletor.
He's Puerto Rican. He's Puerto Rican. Yeah. How's that's a really good he's Puerto Rican
yeah how's he in the mob he's Puerto Rican her father they're saying married
they're saying that she married or he married Renee to get into the mob that's
what they're saying his name is Hector jr. really how many fucking Italians you
know the name is Hector yeah he Yeah, he's cute. But what happened was, remember
we had this discussion the other day. I read
her Twitter. Staten Island was a fucking
garbage dump run by the fucking Indians. That's
where they put the Indians after they threw them out of New York.
Then they decided, fuck, we got
this property over there. Let's build on fucking
Staten Island with garbage. God hell.
So it was all just garbage? It used to, half
of it was a dump. That's why when you're driving, I mean
bro, it's 20 minutes from Jersey that way.
That's when they give you, they put you this.
I'll tell you what, Staten Island, to me, when doing all, like, when I used to do gigs in New York,
Staten Island had the most unfriendly environment.
Yes.
There was one club on Staten Island, Grandpa's.
Grandpa's.
That was, wasn't that Al Lewis's joint?
They wouldn't give you a seat for your girlfriend.
You would show up with your girlfriend.
They would like, could she sit down in the back?
No.
Your seats are for customers.
Like, wow.
Like, your performers, like, they don't even have, like, a little site,
a little spot where the performer can sit down or your girlfriend can sit down.
Like, they would want you to, you know, go stand outside, stupid.
You're not a part of the show.
It was just a weird vibe.
Listen, I went to Sand Island one time because I got sick and tired of going to Harlem.
If they caught you getting weed in Harlem on the way back from Jersey,
they would confiscate your car because you were interstate transporting over federal lines.
Those bridges and that tunnel, yeah, they're cute.
But if they catch you bringing drugs over, your car gets confiscated.
Yeah, that's how it is in California too.
So that's what happened there.
So you had to go into George Washington Washington and come back to the Lincoln Tunnel.
After every day, you get sick of going over there for weed.
They said the Jamaicans had gone to Staten Island, okay?
There's a Jamaican neighborhood in Staten Island.
They sell the best.
So one day in 94, me and my buddy go over there.
No biggie.
We drive in.
We're looking for black people.
We can't fucking find them.
We can't find no dreads.
I can't smell no fucking incense. I can't smell no fucking incense.
I can't do nothing.
And all of a sudden, what do I see? I see 20
fucking guidos on a corner
with white t-shirts on, with white shoes
on, pinky rings the whole thing.
I pull up at the light and they're like,
who are you looking for? Nothing.
We're looking for a little... Pull over.
Pull over. Come on over here. Before you know it, I had 20 Italians
around me. Yeah, what are you looking for?
I want a 20.
All right, park the fucking car and go into the fucking pizza place and somebody will come up.
Okay, I parked the car at my buddy.
You know what?
I'm hungry.
I go to the pizza place.
Guy comes in.
What do you want?
I want a 20.
Okay, listen, from now on, when you come over here, you see fucking whatever his name was,
Angelo, okay?
You ask for Angelo, no problem.
Okay. One day it snows a month later. You know what? his name was, Angelo, okay? You ask for Angelo, no problem. Okay.
One day it snows a month later.
You know what?
I don't want to go into the city.
Let's go into Staten Island real quick.
The weed wasn't bad.
I pull up.
I don't see Angelo.
I don't see nobody.
I see 20 fucking guineas.
I don't know none of them.
I pull over.
I go in the pizza place.
Within 15 minutes, I had 15 Italians in there, three of them with bats.
What are you doing here?
We're disrespecting. We are you doing here disrespecting?
We told you when you come up here, you got a C'Angelo.
You weren't asking for Louie.
I didn't ask for nobody.
I asked for a fucking slice of pizza.
It was an hour and a half drama to get a $20 bag of wheat.
Where's the wheat?
Do you know where the wheat is?
I don't know where the wheat is.
Do you know where the wheat is?
And I was like, you know what?
It was too much for me, bro.
That angry Italian Staten that island vibes a bad
vibe the pizza was delicious the bread was delicious everything was great but i never went
back over there and that's what i see when i watch my wife there's spots like that it's not
comfortable who you with that's the first thing they ask you and this is why i want to see good
father good father to godfather too who you with that's the first thing they ask you. I'm not with nobody.
I came with Eddie.
No, no.
We don't know Eddie Bravo.
Who you with?
And that was, by the way, reinforced by all those shitty mob movies.
You know, so many people got into it.
Exactly.
Bronx Tale and all these different.
Bronx Tale wasn't bad.
Living with Godfather, too.
It wasn't bad, but I mean, the vibe of it.
Godfather 2 is the greatest movie of all time.
They were all great movies.
There's a great, a bunch of them.
Listen, let me tell you something.
Godfather 2, and I forgot to tell you something.
It's better than the fucking, it's the first movie ever.
That's better than the first one.
Not to me, because Marlon Brando is rock over fucking everything.
You know what I'm saying?
He's rocking.
When he told that motherfucker at the table that, you know what?
I'm due of all this situation here.
My son has to come back.
But if for some unfortunate fucking situation,
he should be struck by a bolt of lightning or he should be hanged in his fucking jail cell i will blame
the people at this table and that i will not fucking forgive that's the greatest speech at
the top of it all yeah the problem is every stupid he didn't know his line douchebag wants to be that
guy no marlon brando was beautiful the studio
listen marlon brando was the first man ever marlon brando was one of my idols because he told hollywood to suck his dick he went down i think he told a lot of men to suck his dick yeah
he did i think i have a photo of it he went down a mutiny on the bounty he went down a mutiny on
the bounty and bought a island nobody's Nobody's ever bought an island. Nobody's ever been that fucking quick.
Tyler Perry.
After now.
But this was 1970.
It was motherfucking.
And then impregnated half the women on that island.
All of them are named Marlon.
Every fucking kid on that island is Marlon Brando.
That was part of living on the island.
You got to suck my dick. Where was this island?
It was off the fucking coast of Hawaii or wherever he shot that thing.
Island of Dr. Moreau.
Bro, Warner Brothers went down there, wherever the fucking people were,
and looked at the tapes.
And they're like, what is this?
You're shooting birds and pigeons?
Where you been?
Where the fuck you been for the last month?
He's like, dog, I've been fucking these Hawaiian chicks up the ass.
I'm having a great fucking time.
Saw him when The Godfather came along.
They didn't want him.
They're like, this guy wasted millions of fucking dollars.
Yeah, put that up here.
Put that up here, Brian.
Yeah, you sure?
Yeah, put that up.
Put that up. Look at this.
Oh, you can't do it on Ustream, right?
But if you just Google Marlon Brando sucking dick, it's actually
an artistic shot that Marlon did.
But artistic with two quotations.
That's how deep the motherfucker was.
And he doesn't even look that fat back then.
That sperm kills the fucking sperm.
Listen, I got a boogie with Stu. I love you, cocksucker.
I'll see you Thursday night. I gotta go for my knee at 6 up at the bob hope fucking center to get everything in shape don't forget payloads don't forget fucking payloads l-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o I bought you a camera, cocksucker, so I want 10 points. I want a lens.
They bought you a camera.
I want a fucking lens, cocksucker.
See you Thursday, brother.
And Friday night, we're going to have a good time.
House of Blues, Vegas, Mandalay Bay, Duncan Trussell, Joe Diaz, me, the whole pile.
One more thing I wanted to talk about before we get out of here,
because this is pretty fucking fascinating shit.
You know, we talked about the problem in the ocean, that big pile of plastic
that they have.
Yeah, the garbage patch.
They just found a mushroom
in the Amazon
that eats indestructible plastics.
Wow.
Yeah.
It's pretty fucking nuts, man.
So we're going to throw
a bunch of mushrooms on it
and then the water
is going to be all trippy
and we're all going to die.
It eats polyurethane, man.
The mushroom is called Petalotiopsis
Petalotiopsis Microspora
Pestalotiopsis
Pestalotiopsis Microspora
Why do they have to name them? What's up with the Latin?
Let it go, bitch. It's 2012.
You know, awesome plastic eating mushroom.
That's the official name.
It's spelled P-E-S-T-A-L-O-T-I-O-P-S-I-S micro S-P-O-R-A.
So it's a resident of the Ecuadorian rainforest
and was discovered by a group of student researchers
led by molecular biochemistry professor Scott Strobel as a part of Yale's annual rainforest
expedition and laboratory.
You know, they go down there, man.
They have these scientists and these researchers go down there.
And every now and then they'll find some fucking crazy shit.
There's like all sorts of medicines that have come out of the rainforest incredible psychedelic drugs all kinds of nutty fucking things and they're chewing that bitch up
every day so the mushroom like disintegrates the the the plastics or what's it do it eats it it's
able to it's the first fungus species well it absorbed you know mushrooms absorb things
you know it's really like they're they're the the it karma. It's like karma free living the way mushrooms live.
They literally live in shit.
You know, they live the most humble life possible.
But there it's a living organism.
It's the first fungus species to able to to be able to survive exclusively on polyurethane.
So it lives on fucking indestructible plastic.
And more importantly, it's able to do that in anaerobic conditions,
meaning the same conditions found in the bottom of landfills.
And this makes this fungus a prime candidate for bioremediation projects
that could finally provide an alternative to just burying plastic and hoping for the best.
I wonder how long the process takes.
Are we talking about 30 years?
Probably a billion years,
but at least it's better than what the plan's now.
Now they need to find some shit that eats nuclear waste.
It's probably in the Amazon.
It's probably a frog.
It's probably Snooki.
It's a frog.
They're going to give it this frog.
It's going to eat nuclear waste,
and then it's going to become fucking Godzilla.
Oh, no.
There goes Tokyo.
Go, go, Godzilla.
Denny Propagos, you want to step up to the mic? Want to be on the podcast here, son? This is Go go Godzilla Denny Propagos
You wanna step up to the mic?
Wanna be on the podcast here son?
This is our boy Denny
We've known Denny since he was a little child
Since he was a small boy
And now he's a black belt
World champion
First 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu black belt
The viewers have been looking at his feet
For the last two hours
They are sexy feet
Headphones son
So everybody knows
That you know what you sound like.
Kohala, it's good.
At the Gracie Nationals
this past Sunday,
not only did 10th Planet
get the first place team title
for the Gracie Nationals,
but Danny also got first place
in his division.
Fucking hell.
Tapping out two black belts.
He twistered a Joe Marrera black belt
and he guillotined UFC star Dan Phan in 29 seconds.
Danny had a, he capped off an epic day for 10th Planet.
That was a flying guillotine?
You got him in a flying one?
Jumped up?
No, no, no, no.
He shot in for a single leg on my right leg, and I just wrapped his neck, and I drove my hips in.
He fell back.
I hooked his right leg with a triangle,
stepped over with my right leg,
crossed my feet, arched my hips, looked up.
Nice.
It was amazing, man.
Geetian's nasty.
Yeah, we've known Denny since,
what were you like, a purple belt
when you started training with Eddie?
Blue belt?
Blue.
Blue belt?
Yeah.
But I started, actually, no,
I started training with Eddie when I was in Orange Belt.
So that's like little kids, right?
Yeah, I was 15.
Damn.
Wow.
Tell them about our first private lesson.
He lives in San Francisco.
He's been there the whole time.
I'm in LA.
I had just opened up.
I had my first school open for maybe two years.
And I'll never forget.
I'll never forget when it was after our
tournament me and a couple well-known jiu-jitsu players were in the parking lot smoking some weed
in our car and here's this little kid like two cars away just standing there looking at us and
we're like trying to hide the weed like oh no there's a kid there hide the weed we're like
hiding the weed and he knew exactly what we're doing like uh and then we uh he lives in san francisco yeah he drove down for the different san francisco kids learn about
weed when they're three dude it's been legal there for like 30 years yeah i got it gives a
fuck i got the first time i got offered a smoke was i was in fourth grade there was this so tell
us about tell us about uh your first experience, like, remember your birthday and all that kind of stuff?
Oh, yeah.
So for, was it my 15th birthday?
My brother and I, we were going to go down to this Greek convention.
It was like this Greek dancing thing.
And I'm like, all right, I want to take it private with Eddie, you know?
And he taught me the rubber guard back then.
He actually taught me London and taught me the invisible collar, the basic path and taught me some twister stuff, taught me the meat hook.
And I basically went back and all the stuff I videotaped it.
He is. He had his brother drive down from San Francisco.
Yeah, that was pretty cool.
That's pretty crazy.
I had this kid and I usually don't do privates, but this kid shows up, and I'm like, you know
what, I like to save all my energy for my group classes.
I really don't have energy for privates, really just rarely do I give them.
And he comes down, you know, this 15-year-old kid, drove all the way from Frisco.
I'm like, okay.
And he ended up, I knew right there knew right there right I knew that this guy
there was something special about him I knew that I mean if he's willing to drive all the way down
from San Francisco to take a private that he's down for life this guy was yeah that's most the
most important thing that anybody could ever show is just if you want to be successful at something
you have to be really fucking dedicated to it really dedicated and doing something like that come all the way down from san francisco that shows and it
never waver because even to this day to this day i'm not just saying this to this day he's he's
definitely the most decorated 10th planet uh competitor yeah he's definitely he's won the most
uh titles he's competed the most at the highest levels in straight grappling.
I have guys that have done MMA, and they've done well, like Scott Epstein and all.
But pure grappling, Denny has done the most.
And it's because he drills and practices way more than anybody I know.
I mean, he's a jiu-jitsu fanatic.
Not only does, like yesterday, we're rolling.
We're rolling, and every move, every little trick I had,
even the latest shit, the latest tricks, he would call it out.
He would tell me what I was thinking.
Nobody can do that.
Nobody can break down the 10-planet system like Denny.
Tell me exactly how I'm planning to trick him.
I've never had anybody do that. He was calling everything
out. It was fucking me up. Like, holy
shit, this guy is reading my mind. He
studies the 10th planet system like
no one else, and he studies
all the new games that are coming up,
like all the 50-50 stuff, all
the leg lock, all the latest stuff that the Brazilians
are coming up with, like Rafael Mendes
and Cabrinha, all the Spiral
and De La Riva. This guy studies it like he has OCD.
Well, he's just obsessed.
He's definitely focused.
It's so important to be around people like that.
In life, there's always people that are willing to take things to another level,
that are learning quicker than everybody else, that have more passion.
It's so important.
So important.
And it rubs off on his students.
Check this out.
For sure.
I had maybe about seven or eight of my schools compete at the tournament,
and his school, the San Francisco school, by far did the best.
They were 12-1.
He had four guys competing, 12-1, and the one loss was in the finals.
It was like a 30-minute match.
37-minute match.
And the guy lost, but it was incredible.
He didn't even tap.
He went to sleep.
That's incredible, though, 37 minutes.
That's amazing.
I mean, he's got incredible students, like future stars,
like Adam Satchinoff.
We call him Big Red.
Adam Satchinoff is 230 pounds.
His rubber guard is insane.
And he's got black belt-level guillines and Darcy's and Japanese necktie.
And then Mike Hillerbrand and Travis.
Travis Magalette, yeah.
That's awesome.
He's got some crazy students.
And by the way, if you're in San Francisco, Danny, how did they find your place?
Because a lot of people already come to your place because of the podcast, right?
Yes, yes, yes.
Your podcast has helped.
Thank you very much.
I really appreciate that.
How did they get there?
Yes, yes.
Your podcast has helped.
Thank you very much.
I really appreciate that. How did they get there?
We're on 333 Valencia Street, Suite 100, inside Valencia Street Muscle, the gym.
And my website is 10thplanetjujitsusf.com.
And for folks who, you know, look, I get emails, I get Twitter messages all the time saying,
thank you, I started doing jiu-jitsu because of the podcast.
For people who think you can't do it, if your body works, you body works you can do it all right you don't have to go in there and
jump in there with killers you take beginning classes you learn some technique and it's fun
and you know what man you just gotta you gotta be able to be tapped out when when you get tapped
out just tap just tap and go right back in and figure out what you did wrong and learn and it
is a vehicle for developing your whole life all martial
arts are you know they're when you get through difficult things a lot of people never physically
get pushed they don't they don't understand what it feels like they don't understand what it's like
to to to really exert yourself and to try hard and to grow and accomplish to to accomplish you
know something to learn some new techniques to to develop and advance. It's so important for everything that you do.
When you get really good at something as difficult as jiu-jitsu,
it makes everything in your life better.
And when we say anybody can do it, that's not a sales pitch.
Anybody can do it.
Little girls, little five-year-old, six-year-old girls do jiu-jitsu.
Old ladies do jiu-jitsu.
Anybody can do it.
You know, contrary to popular belief, you go to jujitsu school,
it's not these barbaric animals that want to rip your arm off.
It's the opposite.
Mostly nerds.
Yeah, it's mostly computer nerds.
Our classes are mostly like computer nerds who will kill you.
Yeah, exactly.
Computer nerds that are addicted to gaming.
Like Cade. Like if you didn't know Cade Computer nerds that are addicted to gaming. Like Cade.
Like if you didn't know Cade, you know.
Cade Nelson.
You look at Cade, Cade Nelson.
He's wicked.
His jiu-jitsu's wicked.
And he's a very small guy.
He's like 140 pounds at the most, right?
He's not a big guy.
He's 130.
Black belt.
Nasty technique.
Nasty technique.
But if you look at him, he's like all skin and bones, man.
He's the nicest guy on the planet.
Nicest guy.
But if you look at him, he's like all skin and bones man is the nicest guy nice this guy You know, it's it's totally not a bunch of
Killers who just you know, literally yes, you learned jujitsu you you are learning how to kill people but they're not animals
I mean people they're like like really cool nice folks, you know, like so many of them like Brent
You know you look at Brent like what a nice looking guy Like he seems like Just a normal
Real friendly
Nice to everybody
Yeah
Choke your fucking lights out
The sport itself
What it
What's going on
What makes it so much fun
Is a filter for douchebags
Yeah
Because in the sport of Jiu Jitsu
You're gonna
The sport is
The game plan is
To tap someone out
To put someone in a position
In a choke hold
Or an arm bar.
None of it hurts.
You just tap out when you feel like you can't get out, and you tap out, give up, and then the guy lets go of the hold.
So that's like a kill for you.
No one got hurt, but you tapped out.
You couldn't get out.
Douchebags can't walk through the fire, those beginning stages where they're getting tapped out, they're losing the game,
because they take it too personally everybody has an ego But douchebags have the biggest egos so they can't go into jiu-jitsu
And and go through the learning phases where they're losing where they're tapping out losing a game of death
You know they can't handle it
So they never even get to jiu-jitsu the only guys that make it through are the guys that have a complete control of their ego where they tap out in the beginning all the time you're always losing in
the beginning you're just tapping out it doesn't hurt you're tapping out but your ego can get
bruised if you don't have control of it so what ends up happening is jujitsu is is the ultimate
douchebag filter you're left with a bunch of guys that were had no problem tapping out and no problem
submitting no problem dealing with reality because the reality is every dickhead wants to think that
he's the fucking man every guy wants to think that you know there's so many guys like bro if i got
into mma i'm tell you right now i'm not into that mma but if i get into i'll fucking be running shit
yeah fuck gsp i'm a natural born fighter. Some dudes are just natural.
And those guys, they can't handle jiu-jitsu
because some little K dude will choke their fucking
lights out.
And that's also why those guys are scared of weed.
Hollow. Especially edibles.
Edibles expose your douchiness
as well. Meanwhile, edibles are the
best things to roll on.
I don't like edibles.
You just never know how much TH you're getting.
We talked about this before.
You still don't know what that is either.
Lately, I've been on a good roll
with these strips.
I just like a couple pops
before I teach.
I'm all good. I don't need to get crazy.
You guys ever try the Gold Mist?
No. A mist?
It's like a breath thing.
How is it? It's like a breath thing. You tried it? Yeah. How is it?
Pretty good. Yeah. It's amazing.
But eventually they're going to have
like fucking filtration systems
and air conditioning where you come into work
and just get high. What about the new vapor pens?
What is that? Oh, like
old school, like they look like those
magic cigarettes. Yeah, the cigarettes.
Electronic cigarettes. Yeah, they're like soaked
in THC and there's zero smell.
No smell at all.
You probably shouldn't talk about that because someday you're going to want to use those in some place.
Meanwhile, they're monitoring Twitter, these cunts.
Yeah, I used to have the electronic ones, but they weren't accurate.
It seemed like you just suck on them for a while and you're like, I'm not getting anything.
This is bullshit.
Eventually, this is all going to be legal.
We're battling it right now.
Here's some crazy shit that was on MSNBC, msnbc.com.
It's from Reuters.
In London, these scientists did these studies on people tripping on magic mushrooms,
and it's given them the best picture yet of how psychedelic drugs work.
And these British scientists are saying the findings suggest that such drugs could be used to treat depression.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
I mean, it's amazing.
This is all becoming mainstream shit one after the other.
Over and over and over again, there's these studies that are coming to light now that
are suggesting that all these different drugs, ketamine, they're saying that ketamine can
be used as an instant cure for depression.
And one of the reasons why kids get addicted to ketamine is the first thing that ketamine does
is alleviate all your worries.
Like that's one of the reasons why people are doing it.
So now they're suggesting that ketamine can be used
as some sort of an antidepressant,
as some sort of an instant antidepressant quality,
as well as psilocybin.
Two separate studies, the effects of psilocybin,
the active ingredient in magic mushroom,
showed that contrary to scientists' expectations,
which of course is based on propaganda,
it does not increase but rather suppress activity in areas of the brain
that are also dampened with other antidepressant treatments.
So they don't even understand it.
It's like they're saying that psychedelics are thought of as mind-expanding drugs,
so it's kind of been assumed that they work by increasing the brain's activity but they don't surprisingly they found that psilocybin actually causes the
activity to decrease in areas that have the densest connections with other areas so they don't know
so that makes sense though so it quiets your brain down so that you could have an outer body
experience that makes sense to me sort of less activity less activity just like when when
you meditate you meditate you know people are addicted to meditation because you know if you
could if you could just think on think about one thought like a water drop or whatever you get into
that zone you know people that zone is the frequency of the universe that's where everyone's
trying to get they're trying to get that and you do it by just thinking about one thing so that
makes sense you're quieting your brain you do it by just thinking about one thing. So that makes sense. You're quieting your brain, removing all negativity.
You're thinking about one thing, and it aligns you with the universe.
I mean.
Maybe.
No one knows exactly what it's doing.
I mean, it might just be facilitating evolution.
It might just be giving you a better way of thinking because it empowers the mind.
Well, that's my hypothesis because the universe is at one frequency.
That's science. So it makes sense that we should try universe is at one frequency. That's science.
So it makes sense that we should try to get to that frequency.
If the universe is at a frequency, one frequency all throughout the universe, we know that.
It makes sense.
What do you mean by that?
What's this frequency you're talking about?
The whole universe is at a frequency, like one frequency.
And that was in the debate between creationism and evolution.
That was the strong point right there.
So science proved that the whole universe is at one frequency.
So the creationists are saying, see, that's proof of God.
That's proof of intelligent design.
How could the whole universe by accident be at one frequency?
What does the science mean?
What's frequency mean though?
I don't know exactly, you know, but it's like the frequency.
Like what is the frequency
of smoking man yeah that shit is so gross dude god damn what do you put a fan on or something
but there's the frequency is like like what's a frequency of vibration yeah it's a vibration
like what frequency the cigarettes give off dude that's like fucking calm for 93.4 please brian's
for real man unless you got a window open or something, you've got to send your hot box.
There's a smoke sucker over there.
That shit ain't doing nothing, man.
No, what I mean by that, like what's a frequency?
Like a radio station is a certain frequency.
It's a 95.5.
What is that?
You know it's a frequency, and if you turn that dial, bam,
you need to get that frequency on 95.5 if you want to listen to KLS.
So the pinnacle of science
is that they just discovered that the whole universe is one frequency I don't know what
number that is but it's a certain frequency in music you got to be on the same frequency or you
got to be on frequencies that harmonize with that frequency so it makes sense like to me it makes
sense that if the whole unit so but, but, but the science is saying,
no, it doesn't prove intelligent design because we are finding that we're not in just one
universe where there's a multiverse, there's, there's endless universes that each one is
at a different frequency.
So that doesn't prove any intelligent design.
I don't really give a shit about that argument, but to me, it makes sense.
We're trying to get to at on the
frequency of the universe i'm glad it makes sense to you because i have no idea still and i'm like
google trying to get on the radio station of the universe that's that's good and meditation and
yoga this is my hypothesis this is what this is what i'm this is my guess is that yoga and
meditation unconditional love sex certain drugs Will get you In the frequency
Of the universe
Including gay sex
If you love the man
What about dog sex
What about you
Fuck a donkey
It's the same frequency
Is it the same frequency
Yes
Animals supposedly
Have you felt it yet Joe
I'm saying
The only thing I'm seeing here
Is from godlike productions
Which right away
You go
Um
Okay
And what they're saying
Is that all beings
In the universe
Connect through
A single frequency And there's a bunch of videos I guess That you have to watch To understand What they're saying is that all beings in the universe connect through a single frequency
And there's a bunch of videos I guess that you have to watch to understand what they're trying to say
Yeah, I make sense to me. I looked at and it says
It's a song from the butthole surfers really yeah about it's good song. Yeah, I
Mean no one knows what the fuck's going on when you're on mushrooms
It's it's certainly something that should be studied though, and that's what the fuck's going on when you're on mushrooms. It's certainly something that should be studied, though.
And that's what I think is missing in people's ideas of mushrooms.
Everybody has got this propaganda-based opinion on it.
Everybody thinks it's bad for you.
I mean, I remember I had this conversation with Michio Kaku once when we were on the Opie and Anthony show.
And I suggested, you know, I asked him if he's ever done mushrooms.
And, you know, he asked, like I said, like, hey, you know, you ever smoke crack?
You ever do meth?
You know, it's like to a lot of people that's like the same thing.
Like you say, do mushrooms.
They don't want to mess up their brain.
But so much insight, so many different people have come up with insights
because directly related to psychedelic experiments.
And I don't know if it's true, but the rumor was that Francis Crick,
when he was dying, admitted
that he was a frequent user of LSD, and that's how he came up with the idea, the concept
of the double helix of DNA, that he came up with it under the influence of LSD.
There's been a bunch of, I think the guy's name was Kerry, another guy who came up with
other insights on LSD, and there's been geneticists and different people that have done ayahuasca
that have had weird ideas and expanded on these ideas that came directly as a result
of psychedelic experiences.
Who knows what it is, man?
I don't know, but it would be awesome if they were allowed people to fucking study it instead
of lock you in a fucking cage for experiencing something that's been here a lot longer than
people have, you know?
So stupid.
It's just, we have a bunch of stupid people.
You were talking before this happened
about the presidential debates,
about watching.
Watching Newt Gingrich is hilarious.
How is he even in the presidential race?
It's amazing.
That guy doesn't...
How about Mitt Romney?
Him and Mitt Romney are arguing about,
because they both had investments in some,
they both made money off the economy going to shit
based on their investments.
And they both did,
but they were arguing live on TV, on CNN,
about who invested more.
And that alone should tell people
they're both full of shit.
Yeah, well, he just lost, he came in second place in Florida. Can you imagine it? And that alone should tell people they're both full of shit. Yeah.
Well, he just lost.
He came in second place in Florida.
Can you imagine if Newt Gingrich is the president?
What about Mitt Romney?
You see that video where Mitt Romney met with that kid who had cerebral palsy and he uses marijuana?
Yeah.
And he said, why don't you?
He wouldn't even answer him.
He wouldn't even answer him.
He said, would you put me in jail?
He said, well, you could try synthetic marijuana.
Synthetic marijuana.
He was suggesting that that was a good idea.
That I'm not for medical marijuana.
I've told you I'm not for it.
You're not for it.
You're telling, for what?
Why?
For what reason?
Under what reason?
Why?
Because you're a whore.
Because all these goddamn companies that get you into the position that you're in right now
tell you that that's the stance that you should take.
Did you see that video of all of Mitt Romney's flipping and flopping?
There's an awesome YouTube video.
He's gross.
He's a Mormon, man.
Not that there's anything wrong with being a Mormon,
but when you're a Mormon, you're not allowed to run the presidency.
You're not allowed to run the country.
You're just not.
You're not allowed any wacky religion.
If you're a super Catholic,
and I know JFK was a Catholic and everything like that,
but this is with different times.
It's 2012.
You know, really?
You believe that Joseph Smith, a 14-year-old kid that lived in 1820,
found golden tablets that represented the lost work of Jesus?
The guy was a con man, a known con man.
He said he found a stone, a secret stone, and he looked through this stone
and he could read the lost works of Jesus.
Really? Yeah. Really?
Really?
Come on, man.
What language was that in?
Goofball.
It's just fucking amazing, man.
You know, I have friends that are, you know, friends of friends, actually, that are Mormons that I know.
They're very nice people.
It's one of the nicest religions.
And what it gives them that's great is a great sense of community.
Like, they have, their churches have, I've been to Mormon churches before. They have a really nice sense of community. Like they have, their churches have,
I've been to Mormon churches before.
They have a really nice sense of community.
They're very nice to each other
and they really promote that.
They promote like that feeling of family
and that positive frequency
and it does really, it really makes a difference, man.
You know, I was at a Mormon funeral recently
and these people, man, they really believed
that this guy was in a better place
and it really helped them,
that their loved one, you know, had passed was in a better place and it really helped them that their loved one you know had passed on into a better place it really did and i and i really support that i think that's awesome but just just that's just because the ideology
happens to be in a good frequency but if you break down what the ideology stands for it's
ludicrous it's absolutely ridiculous it's absolutely doing some good for some of these people
but so would just being nice it would do the people, but so would just being nice. It would do the exact
same thing. So would just being humble
and giving in to love and just being nice
to people. You don't need some wacky
shit that was made by a con man,
a 14-year-old con man
who found golden tablets
and then when the people came to him like, where are these tablets?
He goes, oh, the angels took them away.
The angels
took them. It's like, you know it it's like it's like you know
it's such a dumb story it's such a terrible story yeah i mean to me i used growing up i
despised all religions i thought i thought it was all just crap and and just destroying society but
as i get older i for me my opinion on religions is if you do it right,
if it's based on unconditional love and doing the right thing,
different religions are just like it's a way to get your soul in the right frequency.
There's different ways to get your body physically, like there's kettlebells,
and then there's some people like to just run, some people like to swim,
all different ways to get your body aligned.
And I think all religions, as long as you do it right,
whether it's Muslim or whatever, Catholicism,
like my grandma, she did it right.
All she cared about was doing things for others,
and she was hardcore Catholic, went to church every day.
That was her exercise of the soul.
That is what got her frequency in the right place.
Some people do yoga.
Some people meditate.
Some people believe this. Some people do yoga. Some people meditate. Some people believe this.
Some people worship rocks.
If you really believe rock,
the rock is the frequency of the universe
and it gets your soul in the right place,
I'm all for it now.
Yeah, it's the idea of just believing in something
and then having a code that you live by
and moving your life always in a positive way.
And that's good, no matter what you call it.
Whether you call it Hindu, whether you call it Kundalini Yoga, whether you call it Catholicism.
If you're really moving in a positive direction and you really believe in love and you really are being warm and open.
And the idea of giving into a higher power is not because God wants you to be humble or God wants you to be, you know, in awe of his
greatness. What it is is saying there's something above you. So not taking yourself so fucking
seriously and instead not being out for number one and sort of realizing that we are together,
like there is a brotherhood and a sisterhood of man. You know, that's really what it's supposed
to be all about. That's the good of religion. And that's where I've seen religion help people
for sure. And I was just like you growing up, man. It was both of about. That's the good of religion. And that's where I've seen religion help people for sure.
And I was just like you growing up, man.
And it was both of us, it was the same reason.
Because we had seen the system fail us.
You know, we had seen all these people
that were supposed to be correct.
And, you know, these people that were supposed to be adults.
We saw they were retarded.
We saw they were assholes.
We saw that was all bullshit.
We saw that, you know, religion was being used negatively
a lot of the time. And there was a lot of guilt. And there was used negatively a lot of the time and there was a lot of guilt
and there was a lot of yelling at you
so we just trashed all religion
you know
if my grandmother was still alive
I would never try to knock some
sense into her and try to prove
that the bible was written by man
it worked for her
that was her kettle bells right there for the soul
it worked for like that's the way kettlebells right there for her soul. It worked for like, you know.
And well, you know, that's the way I look at it now.
I think religion is, if you do it right and, you know, you always look to do the right thing.
And it's all, life is all about selflessness and unconditional love.
And what people don't understand is that benefits you, man.
You can do that and do it in a selfish way.
I mean, it sounds stupid, but if you're a selfish person,
you really want to succeed, you really want good things for you,
you want to do it selfishly, be nice to everybody.
That's the best way to get ahead.
The best way to get ahead is just be nice to everybody.
Tip people whenever you can.
Tip more than you're supposed to tip.
Give people hugs when you can.
Be nice to people all the time.
When you put out that good energy, you get good energy back.
You can like almost think of it like people are, I'm looking out for number one.
You really want to look out for number one?
Look out for everybody else.
Look out for everybody else.
And that's how you really look out for number one.
I have had the most benefit in my life by being nice to people, the most benefit in my life by being generous and being friendly
and being warm. And every time I've not been that, it's always fucked me. And when I run into
someone, especially now at this stage of my life, when I've had my own personal revelations and my
own successes and failures, and I've kind of assessed what helps me and what doesn't help me.
When I run into someone that's life is a mess, when I run into someone that's got a lot of troubles,
God damn it if it's not a big chunk
of what the fuck got them there
is the way they think about things,
the way they behave about things,
the way they take a cigarette
and fucking throw it in the street.
You don't realize why your life is kind of shit
while you're littering everywhere.
Like that's not, you're not putting out good energy
while you're throwing your fucking McDonald's bag out the window because no one's looking.
You're being a cunt. You're fucking up, man. You're ruining space. You're sending out bad
things. When you fuck somebody over in a business deal, you're like, well, I profited. Hey, it's a
dog eat dog world. Bullshit. You just put out some negative shit and it's going to come back at you,
man. That guy hates you. Those people you fucked over in that bad development deal or whatever the hell you did wrong.
Those people don't like you now.
They hate you.
And that's going to come your way.
Do nice things and nice things come from it, man.
Think, talk, and act.
Always.
Think, talk, and act, man.
And that's the best way to end this bitch, right?
Yeah.
Let's wrap this motherfucker up.
So, San Francisco, if you're down,
if you're down to get your shit together,
if you're down to learn
the ancient martial art of jujitsu,
if you're down to have a vehicle
for developing your human potential,
go to 10th Planet Jujitsu San Francisco or JJ?
10th Planet Jujitsu SF.
Jujitsu, full word.
Yes.
10th Planet J-I-U-J-I-T-S-U-S-F.
Go there.
You should probably have a shorter version of that, too.
Well, you could just go to 10th Planet.
There's also no Jiu-Jitsu SF.com.
If you go to 10th Planet JJ, it shows you everywhere.
10thPlanetJJ.com.
And there's how many affiliates?
Click locations.
We got over 30 worldwide.
30!
Melbourne, Rochester, Victoria, Canada, Portland, Spokane.
And by the way, if there's no one near you and you want to learn 10th Planet Systems,
you can still go to 10thPlanetJJ.com and you can learn from the videos that are available in the database.
You could literally see all the lessons that we're learning in class in San Francisco.
Eddie puts those up there.
You just have to pay a small monthly fee.
$4.99, just like we were talking about before.
Perfect.
I could have charged $30 or $25.
A lot of people are.
I just wanted just a little bit.
I wanted to charge.
For bandwidth, keep your website going.
I got to charge a little bit.
$4.99 a month for the entire 10th Planet system
at your fingertips.
And there's also DVDs available.
Tell them about the DVDs and where they can get those.
You just go to 10thPlanetJJ.com.
All my shit's there.
The books, the DVDs.
And if there's not a 10th Planet school near you,
just go to any Brazilian jiu-jitsu school,
any school.
It doesn't matter.
You know, if the guy's a douchebag,
find another school, whatever.
But any jiu-jitsu is better than no jiu-jitsu.
Absolutely.
It's a good thing to have the skill
to protect your family,
to protect your loved ones
by being an expert at scientifically subduing someone
and putting them to sleep nonviolently
and getting the hell out and getting to safety.
And it's a fun way to exercise, man.
A lot of people don't like going to the gym
and just riding a bike.
It's fucking boring.
And a lot of people can't motivate themselves to do that.
Jiu-jitsu will motivate you to do it.
It's fun.
It's fun.
So 10thplanetjj.com. All your
information. All your information.
Get it. Go get yourself some skills.
Learn it!

All right.
Thanks, everybody.
Thanks to Fleshlight for sponsoring the podcast.
They were the first sponsor, and we will always be loyal to them as much as people give a shit about it.
Oh, I should probably say something about this Fear Factor
thing. Yeah, Fear Factor got pulled
off the air. We were supposed to have
an episode where contestants
drank donkey semen
and donkey urine.
Apparently
folks think it's too much.
I agree.
After we did it, I'm going to be honest with you guys
and I haven't told anybody this, but I think I got high with you after it was over that day.
And I remember thinking, I might have told you, but I think we fucked up, man.
I think we went too far.
It just seemed wrong, man.
I'm like, people are not going to like this.
This is going to make people angry.
Whatever, man.
Somebody signed off on it, and then apparently the backlash was crazy.
So they shut down Fear Factor all together.
They pulled the episode.
And there's one episode that's going to air February 12th.
It's our next one.
There's one other two-hour episode that's going to air sometime after that.
They haven't figured out when.
That's perfect.
Put it on the DVD.
No, no, no, no, no.
I think it's never going to go anywhere.
It's going to be buried, and they'll never do it again.
I think they went too far.
Are they showing throw-up now?
No, not really.
But the stunts are so much
bigger now. This show is so much bigger
and crazier that they tried to push everything.
I just think they went too far. I think it was nutty.
I definitely don't think they went too far.
I know, exactly. Everybody has their own
standards. I just don't think that
it's fair to ask people to do that.
It sounds ridiculous coming from me. Well, they don't
have to do it. I know they don't have to, but I mean
to ask them to do it, I think. It would have been cool if everybody said go fuck yourself and then
we had like scrap the stunt it would have been funny have you had that happen yet no but that
would have been a good time you know um but you know i think it was way easier for girls to do
than guys you know obviously but uh i mean for real even girls were even joking around about it
it was way easier spitting it on their chest and rubbing it in. Oh, no.
Brian, that's your world.
You live in a dark world.
So, look, I'm sure if we had to go back in time, they wouldn't do it again.
And the only way you find the limits of these things is you push them.
You know, I think it was a mistake.
So it's over, and it'll probably never see the light of day.
Or five years from now, it'll probably never see the light of day or five years from now it'll air because there's no way they would have
considered doing it five years ago
when Fear Factor went through its first run
I mean in season one it was
so tame and calm and easy
and you know and small
compared to what it's like now. Now it's just
ridiculous. The stunts are huge and
crazy and explosions and nuts
who knows if they'll ever show that again
I'd rather they not.
I think people shouldn't have to do that.
I think it's too much.
They fucked up, but whatever.
We learn.
Kill the show.
Kill the episode, and we'll march on,
because we've got some good episodes coming up.
It's a way better show than it ever was before.
I hope this doesn't fuck it up for everything else,
but I think everybody realizes that it was a mistake,
including NBC.
They wanted to push things, it up for everything else. But I think everybody realizes that it was a mistake, including NBC. And, you know, they wanted
to push things and just, you know,
you don't find out how bad things
are until you get people's reactions. And that's the reaction.
Whoopsies. We're sorry.
Sorry.
So that's it. So I've
commented on that. So go to
oh,
