Let's get started. Now let's get it all expensive. We did it like that and now we do it like this. We've got a tip to adjust it down.
It trades me a lot. Yo, let's get down to business. Now let's get it all expensive. We did it like that and now we do it like this.
We're in a hundred grand world, every street you broke. We can learn something, sports, every experience. You are now listening to the Joe Rogan Experience Experience with Chico, Simon, Kamar, and your host, Matt Floyd. Happy New Year.
Welcome to the Joe Rogan Experience Experience. My name is Matt Floyd, joined as always by Kamar. Welcome to the party. And Simon.
Greetings and salutations. What we do here is very simple. All the three of us have listened to every episode of the Joe Rogan Experience this week. We're going to rate each episode as well as a week on a scale of one to five, Jamie Vernons.
We're going to talk about each guest. We're going to give our opinions, this, that, and the next. But first, Kamar's going to go over some new patrons. No best of bullshit here.
You know what everyone else is doing best of? Yeah, that takes an editing team. Yeah, yeah, I am not. No, we did the real thing.
And that's why the patrons seem biased. And this week's so different. This seems like a prank, though. Big shout out to Guillerme Sores de Silva.
Why is it a prank? Well, it's just a name that was going to stop me. Oh, no. It's Brazilian.
I bet he goes by like a single name, like Hulk. Yeah, I mean, they always do that. It's like Pele. Those are soccer players.
He died, by the way. Yes, he did. I feel like the G might be silent. Is that possible?
No, it's probably Guillermo. Guillerme? Guillermo? Oh, because it's, yes, hold on.
You're right. It's Brazilian. It's Portuguese. It may be silent.
Good call. Guillermo Sores de Silva. I love you. I love all the patrons.
Like and subscribe. Hit that smash that button. Do whatever they tell you to do on the other shows. Leave a comment.
Thank you so much, Guillermo. Because it came up in his currency, I immediately hit him up and was like, hey, just so you know, we're not Joe Rogan. And then I realized it's $5 Canadian. It was a rupee or whatever.
Yeah, yeah, whatever the denomination is. You're like, I just want to make sure before I send you my birth child. Everything's appreciated. Everything's appreciated.
It is. Come on, how's your week? You know, it's that holiday limbo. So I've been watching murder interrogations, as you do around this time of year.
And the weird thing is that everyone's different. But guilty people are all the same. Like the traits and the stuff that they do, like the mental gymnastics they play to try to get out of stuff. It's very, very interesting, but probably morbid.
What's ironic to me about those is that like as kids, we're so dumb and we think we've like outsmarted adults or our parents. You remember lying as a kid? You're like, I got them. And now as an adult, you're like, they knew.
You know what I mean? But people still do it. No, that's what I'm going to say is the ironic thing is that even as adults, you keep that trait. It might be the kid brain or some sort of thing.
I can pull this group of professionals. Because owning up is an adult thing. And that's what's very rare is people go, yeah, I killed him. I mean, in everyone's defense, if you murder someone, you're a fucking idiot if you just admit it to the cops.
Make them do their fucking job. Make them like, that's why I always love about cops. Work with the boys and a big happy new year. And is it normal for spring to come right now?
It's false hope. It's very odd for us to get like 40 inches of fucking snow and then have it just rain for five days. Sometimes we'll get, like historically, we'll get like a hot day and then it all freezes over. But we're just getting consistent thaw right now.
I mean, I hate to talk about the weather, but we do live in Canada. And that is your job. And that is my job. Don't ever bring it up again.
Back there on this Monday, like and subscribe to Kamar Babar on the Instagram. I'll be performing tomorrow, since this comes out Tuesday. So you'll already have a pretty same. I just booked a spot on Wednesday.
So if you're in the auto area, come on out and support Live Comedy. I get what you're saying, son. It's very specific. You'll have to listen to this the day it comes out for that to you.
Yeah. And the only person who listens to us from Ottawa, I believe, is from our sister, and she will not be attending. I've already listened to that long. Oh, that's true.
That's true. Thanks for those disparage words. Simon, how's your week, sir? My week was fine.
You know, kind of same old, same old. New Year's. Whatever. And I watched that new All Gas No Breaks HBO thing.
Oh, you guys haven't seen it? No. Oh, I thought for sure we'd be able to talk about it. Anyways, it's not so great.
It seems like... For serious. It just seems a little behind the times, like you're releasing a January 6th build-up documentary. It's just weird.
Well, it's the one year anniversary coming up. That makes sense. Is it balanced? It's balanced, right?
Is it balanced, as in, like, both sides? Well, it just doesn't paint one-story narratives. Like, the whole thing's a shit show. I mean, mostly it just paints these people as kind of like yahoos, you know?
I think Kamar's point, though, is like, Andrew, in general, shows like, you know, I get what you're saying. It's a sort of tolerance. Like, I think he's a lefty. Let's put it this way.
It's produced by... HBO. Slow your roll. Sorry.
It's produced by the fat guy from Superbad. What's his name? Tony Hill. There you go.
So I should just tell you everything you need to know. It's not, like, completely outwardly one way or another, but I do believe that it's from a... Hollywood. A left point of view.
Hollywood. Sure, whatever you want to say. Look how happy he is with himself. It's crazy.
I've never seen such a smile on his face before. In the year, same issues. Worst issues. That meant for me.
Yeah, yeah. And we'll be talking about the drama in the post-show. You'll be not surprised at all by Kamar's take on the whole thing. I can tell you that much.
I'm sure we'll bring it up somewhere in the show. So, anyway, that's your week, Simon? Yeah, I mean, it was just a whole lot of nothing. Joe just won't take a goddamn break.
None of these shows were done this week. Yeah, either way, none of them needed to be done. None of them needed to be pre-recorded, to be released this week. I thought one of them was...
Oh, no, I like that Bonesland. That was great. That was interesting, just a long... That guy was hilarious.
Would you listen to the best of? No, I never would. Because we always say we're going to do that, but it's way too much to go through all the lists of guests, and what was your favorite guest, and... You know what?
This year, there wouldn't have been anything. Did you say it was a shit year for Rogan? I think I said it was a shit year in general. Oh, well, it definitely was for Rogan.
Like, there were no episodes where I was like, oh, my God, this is incredible. You know what I mean? Well, the whole pandemic is the dark ages. Just the same recycled topics going, and now we're coming out.
Obviously, like, I guess, besides maybe Brian Simpson, I believe, got a boot check. But for the most part, we're moving on. Did you guys watch... Just before I give it up to Matt here.
Did you guys watch Glass Onion? Yes. Did you watch it? No.
Anyways, it's worth a watch. It's fun. But at the beginning, they all show up to the boat to get on, to go to the island, and they're all wearing masks, because it's set right at the pandemic. Like, so stupid.
It's so stupid. Nothing takes me out of a movie more. Like, I think they're trying to achieve the opposite, trying to make it seem so real. I fucking hate it.
You're making a movie. You decide what goes in. Cancel that shit out, you know? And it's like watching a porn with a condom on.
Like, where the porn star has a condom on. Matt, thank you. When I see a porn that has a condom, I'm like, you guys are... I can watch this bareback.
What am I doing here, you know? Well, dude, it's like in my fantasy, no one's wearing a condom. When you're fantasizing about sex, you're not like, and then I put the condom on. Nope.
Unless you love condoms. Okay, sure. That's your thing. Sure, but you know what I mean?
The mask is the same thing. It's so dumb. We might all wear condoms. Well, most of us might wear condoms, but like, you don't want it in your porn.
The same way you might have worn a mask, the last thing you want to see in a movie is to be reminded of the stupid fucking bullshit that I go through. I would have to say, I think that's added in, too. Of course. Like, say Glass Onion was written, now we're going to production, and this happens, and they hire Ethan Hawke to vaccinate everyone.
The worst part of you, you know that the top, like, one of the top brass was probably sitting on set, was like, hey, I've got an idea. What if? Just hear me out. It's making real.
What if we, yeah, what if we added some realism and added masks, and where if it was someone lower in the totem pole, they would have gotten the fucking shit slapped out of them by someone, like, shut the fuck up. That's a terrible idea. Instead, you know, they were too high up, and... I'm so glad you said that, because it really bothered me.
That was, like, the worst part of the movie. The movie's all right. And I just love me saying Edward Norton. Also, hold on.
No, but I've seen it. Sorry. No, no, I'm sorry. I just have to get this out.
Also, a film is about acting. Acting is about emotions. You need the lower part of your face to properly get those emotions out. I guess it's, like, I'll say this.
As an acting exercise, it's interesting. Like, they might try that moving forward. Like, you know what I mean? Do a scene with a mask on?
It becomes very difficult to... I'll pass. I get it, but my point is... Like, you know who did it, and I really didn't like Kamar, was in, I can't remember the name of it, Philadelphia, Portland, Chicago, with...
Philadelphia, Portland, Chicago. The guy from Community. I'm sorry. My brain is not working.
Oh, he's out of Philadelphia? No, from Community. The black guy. Danny Glover.
Atlanta. Atlanta. Thank you. Wait a second.
She just made me six other cities. What just happened? Yeah. Philadelphia.
He was making his way... Okay, no. He was making his way from west to east. He was in South Carolina.
They do it on that show. They're wearing masks. When they go to, like, I don't know, England or something. You know what I mean?
I don't like it. I wonder if people were thinking this is the dude almost... I think he was trying to just be so uber real. So, at least in that one, you can give him a pass.
I figure, like, but he's also very... I don't know. But you acknowledge it bugs you when you see masks. Yeah.
Is it just literally... It's either you're trying to be uber real or you're trying to... No, it's... Get points.
Even when you're going uber real, you still have suspension of disbelief. That's probably one of the movies. So, we're all capable of being like, oh, they're not wearing masks because this is in this world that doesn't... You know what I mean?
It's supposed to be happening in 2020. So, they want it to... Unless the pandemic is a massive part of your plot. Right.
Don't bother. Don't fucking bother. I understand. I can see.
Write 2020 on the screen. Okay, I get it. Yeah. No, I get it more, though, for a show like Atlanta than I do for The Onion.
Because The Onion, there was nothing about it that needed to be 2020 in particular. It could have been 2024. It could have been 2018. It doesn't have to be a new story like Matt says.
I'm tired of being one-off, I'll tell you that. One-off. Yeah. Oh, and all your bets.
Oh, yeah. Well, that means you're getting close. That's probably a good thing. No, it's probably not.
That's how you're broke, motherfucker. Kamar, do you want to go to the guest list, please? I'd love to. It was a curveball of week.
We started off with 1915. Like I said before, we did get a blue mark with Brian Simpson returns. Followed by, I don't think anyone saw it coming, 1916 John Bernthal. I don't know how you guys wrote about him.
1917 may be the worst podcast I've ever listened to in my life. Fedor Gorst, finishing off with a weird surprise, the Alaskan Boneyard Man, 1918 John Reeves. Rate it. So tough.
This week stank. I did not enjoy this week. Oh, my God. I don't know.
I'm going to give it a super generous two. Like the generosity. It's Christmas, though. Yeah, that makes sense.
I'll give it a two. Because I don't really care about the ratings. I'll also give it a two. I'm not hitting the button, because that attitude fucking stinks.
Oh, we've got a way to start off the year. We have an agreement. Whatever. All right, Kamar.
1915, Brian Simpson. Brian Simpson. Yeah. Roommates with Hans.
Hans Kim, he's a comedian. He's not my favorite. I did not know. That's the most interesting thing where you just find a little, oh, you guys live together.
I'm not applying anything by it, but just. Did Brian Simpson come from Kill Tony? No. He was a comedy story guy.
Well, he told the story in this that he ran a club, basically. That's how he got his reps in. Can I ask you a question, Kamar? If you were Brian Simpson-level comedian, would you have a roommate?
That's what I was wondering. I don't even know what levels are. Well, he was talking. Maybe it's convenience, because they're always touring.
I guess you have someone there. Yeah, okay. That is funny, because he was talking to Joe about how once you get to a certain level and people start recognizing you on the street. It makes it hard for you to do things.
So I was like, oh, he's killing it. You know what I mean? He was acknowledging he was at that level. Yeah, so he's killing it, but yeah, he has a roommate.
No, but you may be right. Maybe he's just doing Hans a favor or something. But Hans has got to be making really good money now, too. He's fucking.
Just let me give you a weird example. Like, Mary and I are looking at going away for our birthday, so I happen to be looking at places in Cabo. Cabo San Lucas. Sounds good, man.
Just what you said. Now, when I was looking, I noticed that the Waldorf Astoria was like the third one in it, because it was exponentially more expensive than the rest. It was like $1,700 a night. And then I happen to be on Instagram and I see that Theo is staying in Cabo at that Waldorf Astoria, like in a fucking suite.
So in my head, well, Theo Vaughn has the money to spend $2,000 a night on a room in Mexico. So do you? No, I look smart. Just because you click on the link doesn't mean you're fucking booking.
Sorry, I got ahead of you there. My bad. You think Theo Vaughn and Brian Simpson are the same level? Brian Simpson was on Netflix.
Even if Brian is like a level, like slightly below, I assume he's still making like decent money, right? Am I crazy? But I can't imagine what decent money is that I could justify $2,000 a night on a hotel room. Well, I mean, it's a vacation, first of all.
So you splurred, right? Yeah, but you splurred yourself into financial ruin. Hold on. If you made, if you made, let me ask you a question.
If you made $200,000 last year, that's the number then, $200,000. Well, Theo definitely, splurred yourself into financial ruin. That's funny. I can guarantee you that Theo made $200,000 last year.
For sure. Without a doubt. I bet you, Brian Simpson, maybe last year might've been weird for Theo because I think he had some sort of like nervous breakdown or something. So maybe he wasn't touring a lot or whatever, but I would imagine that he's pretty wealthy.
And his podcast definitely brings in $150,000 a year. I have no idea. But if you're living that, you're making that money, you're spending it that way, it's sort of like you're spending tomorrow's money. You probably not have a lot of room for saving with these extravagant, like the lifestyle.
Well, yes and no. If you go on one vacation a year and you're making $200,000 a year and you're really working hard, I don't think it's that hard to justify. Especially if it's an all-inclusive. I guess everyone does one vacation, but I'm sure for most guys who are making money and touring, it always feels like a vacation is traveling.
I guess. But I feel like Theo maybe travels less than most of them. I could be wrong, though. You think Theo has roommates?
That's a great question. Because Brian Simpson does. Then they talk about cars. I guess as a comedian, there's an advantage to it, no matter what age of them are.
I see it. Yeah, I'm just like living, like Joe always talks about him living with Doug Stanhope. You know, I would assume that's only good for your comedy. I, uh, the comedy community through, like, New Year's Bachelor, I went to it, and just to feel part of the, but I only have, like, two good friends in comedy.
Like, comedians who, while we do talk about jokes and stuff. That's what fucks me up. It's like, I try to write, and I'm like, well, A, you're not funny, and B, you don't have anyone funny around you. Do you have any friend friends from comedy?
Friends friends from comedy? Yeah. Friends of comedians that are friends? Can I tell you something about tomorrow?
No. Friends that you made in the comedy scene that, like, you don't just talk about comedy with that you might go out and, like, I don't know. I doubt it. When you see Kamar in the scene, he, like, he looks like he gets along with everyone, glad-handed, pointing, and then, like, he'll sit down with you, and he'll be like, oh, that guy's a real piece of shit.
Like, it's pretty interesting. It's funny. And everyone's due to everyone else. Anyways, um.
It doesn't sound very nice. Well, it's like any industry. Everyone's glad-handed, and because the next guy might be the next guy behind their back, you're like, yeah. It's all feminine mentality.
That's the problem, okay? In all of it, it must be. Then, Joe, we iterated with the Congo, and the most interesting thing is the only thing from this week that got in the news was. No, Joe's opinion of the Elon jet.
Oh, you're talking about Joe's only opinion that made it up. Yes, that made the news cycle. See, and that's what is so fucked up about everything is that if Joe Rogan says something about whatever, Biden, it makes the news. But when he talks about fucking Congo mines, it can't get a lick.
Well, we know why. Well, it's fucking bullshit, man. He's got to get credit in on that. Who has the worst, ugly girls or ugly guys?
Ugly guys have the worst. Ugly guys, that's the worst you can get for you. And if there's work around, you can make money, you can work on yourself. I think it's also like Fahrenheit and Celsius, that there's a point of ugly where it doesn't even matter anymore.
They're both the same. And they're gay? It doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman. You're just going to have it.
The women always have, you know, the upper hand. More often, yeah. In this country, anyways, it might be different in other places. I will say this, though.
The advantage that the ugly guy has is all he has to do is become rich. Well, I mean, theoretically, same with the girl. If you become rich, you can get... I guess you can then swan yourself up, yeah.
Well, you can also get like a sugar boy, you know? I don't know if that's the right sugar boy. But that's what the difference is between men and women. It's way more accepted for a guy to fuck a bunch of girls than a girl to fuck a bunch of guys.
I'm a slut your stud, sort of cliche. Well, I'm not suggesting they have to fuck a lot of guys. But women don't want that, I don't think. I don't mean to generalize.
Some women don't want that. But I'd say a guy in a band on tour is fucking a girl every single night. I don't think a woman on tour is picking up a dude. The desire and fulfillment is just different.
That's not going to get me right or wrong. I think it's funny, the whole like, oh, you know, that girl fucked a lot. Dude, any girl that you knew growing up, that you were like, she fucked a lot of guys, you were like, yeah. Yeah, that means she fucks.
Yeah, I was never like, oh, I don't know. I was like, keep her in my... Like, I just, I never understood the whole like, stigma of like, you're a slut. I don't know.
Yeah, no, I mean, unless, you know, there were some cases where it seemed a little gross, I guess. They did bring up Andrew Tate for a moment. Oh, well, let's talk about it. If he's on the level, if he hasn't done anything wrong.
Go on, yeah. Then the hatred is of seeing how he's living his life. So Kamar is convinced that Andrew Tate has done nothing wrong and is being totally falsely accused. And this is just another Alex Jones type situation, I guess.
Well, I mean, Alex Jones, there came receipts at the end of the day. That was the most interesting part. Sorry, just to backtrack for a second. That was the most interesting part about that All Gas No Brakes documentary thing.
What do you have to use, Alex Jones? No, a big part of it is Alex Jones. And it shows just him at the January 6th and leading up to January 6th. And how he is like, there's no doubt about it, man.
He is out there trying to incite people into some sort of weird civil war. The morning of the riot marches, he's yelling like, he goes up there, says something like, 1776, 17, you know? And he's like, you see it, it's pretty clear. And then it flashes to the interview he has with him on Infowars there, where Alex is saying, you know, no, that that's not what I was doing at all.
He's telling people to leave. He said it after the fact. After the fact, he turns on it. And he doesn't go to the Capitol.
He just tells everybody. He's like that. Dude, it's so weird. When you watch it, it's pretty fucking clear that something, he was doing some weird-ass shit.
So you think less of Alex Jones now? After watching that, I do. So unless it was like somehow cut to make it look like that, which I can't possibly understand because it's pretty clear what's going on. He is like, it really makes you think that he would be working for people who would want other people to go into the Capitol.
But I mean, Alex Jones is really just another Logan Paul. Yeah, I guess. He does these shows and sells rations. Like, I remember back in the day, it was very scary.
I always try to give him, like, the benefit of the doubt the way Joe does, you know? Like, this is the character he's playing, but whatever. But there is just... That faded away for you.
Well, it did. A little after Sandy Hook, obviously. But this is just like... Dude, watch it.
Watch it. It's only like an hour and a half. I've been looking forward to it. You're going to say something?
No, I guess Logan Paul's out there trying to, like, shadily steal your money. What are you talking about? Alex Jones, he drinks his prime. You know, that Sandy Hook shit was real.
Like, there were people that were, like, ready to hurt these families because they thought some crazy shit that he said... Alex Jones is worse than Logan Paul. Yes. But he's more dangerous.
I didn't say he's worse. He's more dangerous in the sense that, like, dude, there are people that are doing fucking time for shit that he has said on his... For shit he has incited. They're very similar in the fact that they both have big platforms where they use it to then sell you other things about themselves.
All of those things being kind of, you know, maybe not on the level. But... The craziest part is that it's all about money. At the end of the day, it's all about money.
Great noise and sell something related to the noise. And you somehow, I think, convince yourself that you're doing, like, a service. You know what I'm saying? You make a podcast because you want to make money.
And then you convince yourself that you're doing it for some altruistic reason. Oh, we're helping so many people. You know what I mean? Because we thought when we were young that, like, our superstars or whoever they were were above selling out or whatever.
It's the thing we talked about, the erosion of integrity. This is... Anyone did something like that, like... This is way different.
Ever since... It's hyper. This whole crypto thing, like, has opened doors to scams that... Maybe there are just so many now that it's...
I think it's that we... I think in reality, it's that we didn't have the internet. I think a lot of people sold out low-key back in the day, but you didn't hear about it or know about it. You had to see them in a Pepsi ad, right?
Like, you had to see Tony Hawk in a Pepsi ad to be like, Whoa, Tony Hawk, who is... Sorry, no, no, no. There's a huge difference, though, between doing an ad and what you call selling out and tricking people into... Like, using your clout to trick people into buying something that you know is fraudulent.
You know what I mean? Well, where does that put... What about Tom Brady? Tom Brady, Matt Damon, Larry David.
I don't feel they're the same, but it's the same. Well, that is a whole other question, but it's different than Logan Paul and selling crypto animals that don't exist. You know what I'm saying? Those are two different things.
That's fraud. All that fraud. Simon, as we found out from our friend last week, like, if you were to do an Apple ad, like, let's say you're Brad Pitt, and Apple's like, to do a Super Bowl ad, you can feel like, oh, it's an Apple ad, no big deal, but at the end of the day, it's leading to all this mining. You know what I mean?
So there's no real, like... There's no... Anybody who's clean, what they're doing, though, with these crypto scams is different than just kind of putting your name behind the product. It's two different things.
They're not just the face of a product. Like, CoffeeZilla is a really good example of showing you, like, the text chains. I understand why they're different, but it's the same shilling selling out... I mean, it's all gross.
I feel like culturally in Canada, we think it's more déclassé than Americans do. What do you say déclassé? Is that possible? I mean, yeah, I guess that's possible.
All these people get exposed and people keep giving them money. Or do they get exposed, though? Like, you have to get on somewhere where a lot of eyeballs see you to get exposed, right? I mean, Simon makes a great point.
Just like, you know, CoffeeZilla is a perfect example. Like, yeah, we've all seen him. Like, Simon never would have watched a video of his, even though I told him to. So, like, a close person to Simon said, you should watch this.
And Simon was like, no, I don't like his name. Never gonna watch it. Then he sees him on Lexus and talking. He's like, I guess I'll check it out.
The point is, let's say CoffeeZilla has 10 million subscribers, which I don't think he does. That's not that many. Dude, the state has 360 million people. Oh, to most of the world, this egregious thing is like nothing.
There's a nothing burger in the world of news unless criminal charges come out. He asked him, Joe asked Sam Harris what Brady would want. He said Sam Harris. He asked Brian Simpson what Brady would want.
He'd say Sam Harris. Yeah, weird answer. I really feel like Sam Harris has lost his mind on Fox News. I agree.
And I was a huge, like, I was a big... I'm so happy to hear you say that. Well, listen, I don't feel like I'm some asshole. I like Sam Harris too.
I just, his, whatever has happened to him. What happened to him? Just the things coming out of his mouth recently are just absolutely obscene. It doesn't make any sense.
Like, to me, he was a guy of reason, but he's so anti-Trump that like, okay, example, what did he say? He's fine with, he thought the government lying was for like the better good of the people sort of deal. And I'm like, come on, dude, that's never the case. I don't see how, the trust in the government, whether it's at an all-time low or an all-time high, if you find out that they actively pushed a shit narrative on you, it's not good.
He's supposed to be such a crazy intellectual, but to be so stuck in this one sort of... Well, that's the problem. Like, for example, for him to be like, what did he say about Biden? No, he said Biden could have a baby in his basement or something.
It wouldn't matter. It would pay on comparison to what Joe does that mean. No, what he was saying was like, if they found out that like Hunter, I can't remember if it was Joe or Hunter, he's like, if we found out that one of them had fucked a kid, it wouldn't be as bad as what Trump did on January 6th. Something along those lines.
Just Trump in general, he's so deranged and so happy. And anyways, I thought that was funny that he wanted to be. Who do you think I mean, it's got to be either Trump or like in the world or in North America. I guess you'd have to have a section of someone.
Because Putin's going to be high up there. Trump is going to be very high up there now or whatever his name is there. But Trump shouldn't even be in the conversation. Kim Jong.
Trump shouldn't be in the conversation. It's not like he's a war criminal. Trump shouldn't be in the conversation, but he is. Well, the media keeps him in.
Kanye. Is Kanye in the top 10? I don't think Kanye is big enough to like, you know what I mean? Putin, Trump.
Trump is more divisive than Kanye is. Close, close, close. Kanye will never, I'm not even going to say it. I was going to say Kanye will never be president.
I was like, the last time someone did this, we know exactly what happened. Does the Matrix fall apart if Lex starts to run Twitter? I mean, I think he'd be crazy to do that. I don't know why he would want to do that.
That seemed kind of like, I don't know. Sometimes Lex seems like a bit like thirsty. Well, no, I don't know about that, but like it speaks to, you guys hate Lex. With the tie and everything in the beginning.
I didn't like him singing on the show. He worked at MIT. But what does he do now? Is he working on coding?
I think he's still working on private projects. Not right now, because his whole thing leading up to this new year has been like, I'm going to get back into coding and doing work. I don't follow him. Because he hasn't had a lot of podcasts coming in, I don't think.
Either way, he's one of those people I hate. I despise when someone's like, oh yeah, we got it, you're driven, you're smart. Is it not impossible for anyone to run Twitter? Like there's no central beacon that everyone would say, well, we agree that that person has everyone's best interest in free speech or whatever they try to do.
Who would be that person? He doesn't exist. No, no, no, but if you, like you, Kamar, you're tasked with trying to find the best middle of the road person to run Twitter, who do you put in there? That's a good question.
I like that. Nancy Pelosi? What do you think about? I'm trying to know.
Well, you just asked the question, so I'm trying to give it a solid job. I'm trying to include everybody. Mr. Beast, my job.
I mean, not enough people know him, right? In the Twitter world, everyone knows him. So for young people, that would be a good vote. I mean, Simon, I don't know enough about what is Twitter.
I know it's a social media company, I'm a fucking idiot, but my question is like, before Elon took over, were they an advertising company? Because most social media lose money companies. Whatever they are, Matt, this person would be charged with deciding what kind of people get banned and don't get banned and what the rules would be. You know what I'm talking about here?
Sure, yeah, I guess, yeah. I don't really know. It's a really good question. Gritta.
No, that's a terrible idea. Maybe Tom Hardy? Or Mike Tyson, because the whole talk shit about him. I think you need a board of lawyers.
That's what I think you really need. I know that sounds odd, but you need it. I don't mean like, I just mean people that know they're very smart and level-headed, like ex-judges would be a good place to start. Jocko?
Just to get a pool of the most corrupt people possible to start your... No, there's not anything every judge. You know what I mean? Someone who has been brought up on a...
But judges that you're going to get are going to be old and that's a problem, right? Like nobody stops being a judge. But you get what I'm saying. I'm looking for someone who like understands impartialness and reason and reason.
Like this is what we're really looking for. He doesn't exist. You can't be on the political spectrum because that clouds your view. You know, you have to be impartial.
You have to... I mean, Lexini is probably a pretty good... He understands both sides. He gets the technical side.
He gets the... He seems like a pretty reasoned person. Maybe it is a good job for him. He talked about having to leave your hometown to succeed in comedy and that people know you in a certain way and it's hard for them to see you otherwise.
You know, like I'm funny than you guys think because you know me but other people who don't know me think I'm really funny. I was going to say, yeah, I mean the opposite but yes, I totally get what you're saying. Then Brian did the old I think I'm going to do boxing which is sort of hard to do after you have David Goggins. Like do it.
You should be doing boxing, Brian. I'm not talking about it but instead of give a bone to Joe and they talked about if you have your hall pass do you think you can enjoy sex with your favorite porn star? A porn star that you like? If you had your hall pass do you think I could enjoy sex with my favorite porn star?
Yes. Yeah. Yes. Okay.
You wouldn't be intimidated like... No. He asked the question. I mean, I think he would probably be a little intimidated.
I think he might be too much pressure. It's a lot of pressure. Yeah. I'm not good under that.
First of all, there is no pressure. In this scenario, if you have a hall pass you're not their impressor. No, no, forget the hall pass for a second. You're just a guy.
You're going to fuck your favorite porn star. You know what I mean? That's a weird flex. Why don't you want to talk girls are more understanding than you give credit to?
Like if you bust it right away you'd be like, listen, I've been screaming about this my whole life. Why don't you do 10 minutes together? I'm just saying, yeah. Anyways.
If there's a one-off deal like it'd be awkward. I think it would be... Anything where there's pressure I think you can really get in your head. And you realize it's different fucking porn star than watching porn star because you don't see all the angles of her that you're used to because you're right up there close to your head.
It's just all POV and you can't handle it. Exactly. So I guess we're split on that. The variety of porn and cat videos.
Do you think that's what the internet is? The variety of porn and cat videos. Porn is the biggest thing in the world. Not to echo EA.
But porn is on Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter. I think music is bigger but I guess it's debatable. Music is more accessible. Music is easier to...
Because music can be shared. Porn can't be shared with a big group of people. I just in general think music is, you know, music is played in the background at banks. It's an elevator.
