  SPEAKER_03: From the uh looks on your faces, this seems to be quite a surprise.
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_01: Well gosh, Jeff, I you know, this this catches us kind of by surprise here.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, not to go back to potty humor, but with catches us with our pants down, you know what I mean?
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, if you ask me again, not to go potty, this is a bunch of shit.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, well, yeah, yeah.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_01: Well, uh you you you know, uh uh Jeffrey Rogain, you know, can I call you Jeff?
• 3:07
  SPEAKER_01: Of course that's gonna be confusing.
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_01: Can I call you Joe?
• 3:10
  SPEAKER_01: Might as well.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_01: He's Jeff, you know?
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_01: Why don't I call you Joe?
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, can we call you Joe uh Joe Rogan?
• 3:15
  SPEAKER_03: Look, as long as the check clears, you guys can call me whatever you want.
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_01: You want me to oh wait, he's getting a check?
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_01: But I digressed.
• 3:22
  SPEAKER_01: But I digress.
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_01: What up?
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Joe, uh you know, we we kind of prepared to have some questions for the MMA podcaster comedian Joe Rogan, but we could ask those same questions to Joe Rogane, don't you think?
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_01: Don't you think we could, Jeff?
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_02: I yeah, and and the other thing is, you know, Steve, you and I are very you know smart on our feet.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_02: I think we can make this work.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_02: I think it's still gonna be fascinating.
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_02: Um I don't know anything about him, but yeah, I think I could tailor some of these questions to kind of fit.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I think we can try.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_01: And and and see, this is this is the nature of podcasting.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_01: This is why we won that potty, because we can pivot, we can move, we can adjust to the reality that's going on.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_02: Well, um you want you want to take it off there?
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_02: Wash away the previous agenda and start anew.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_03: This sounds sounds fun.
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, I'm here, yeah.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_03: And I I've heard of Joe Rogan.
• 4:20
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_03: I haven't actually seen his podcast, but loved him on news radio.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_01: So news radio, that's right.
• 4:27
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 4:27
  SPEAKER_01: Well, Jeff, would you like would you have a question for uh Mr.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_01: Rogan?
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, let me hear let me kick let me kick this off again, sort of flying by the seat of my pants here, but this will be good.
• 4:36
  SPEAKER_02: So I guess my first question is did you always want to be in comedy?
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, ever since I was a little kid, um, I was always told I was funny.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_03: That was mostly, you know, my mom and dad would just say, you know, that kid's funny.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_03: And uh so yeah, I I always figured I'd have a career in comedy instead of what I had.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_02: And at what point did you at what point did you start your wrestling career?
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_03: Well, you know, the wrestling career, when you're the youngest of six brothers, it starts pretty much as soon as you're, you know, out.
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_03: You know, you you come out of the womb and you've got at least one brother on top of you.
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_03: So, you know, it started early.
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_01: And then now talk about the transition from comedy to MMA.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, that or was it the other way around?
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_01: Tell me about that transition.
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_01: It seems like an odd move.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_03: Well, yeah, I mean, they were always kind of two things that I loved.
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_03: And so um, yeah, I just did them both at the same time.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_03: I would go to a comedy show and then uh go to a fight.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_03: Sometimes I'd go to a fight and then do a comedy show.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_03: Sometimes I'd go to a fight at a comedy show.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_03: Those were the ones, you know, that's like a double bill right there.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_03: You know, I've seen a couple of those, yeah.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_03: Absolutely.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_03: If you can get to a comedy show and a fight breaks out, that's just like heaven.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but and then and then the move to podcasting.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_01: Did you ever think you'd be this big in podcasting?
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_03: No, I mean, you know, I'm up to where I have almost a dozen viewers or listeners or whatever they're called them podcasting.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_03: What do you guys call your audience?
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_01: I I call them, you know, mom, my sister.
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you know, yeah.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_03: If I didn't have so many brothers, I would probably have you know half the people listening, right?
• 6:18
  SPEAKER_03: Um, but you know, podcasting just it seems like a natural thing.
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_03: You've been fighting for so long.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_03: Um, it just seems natural to put a microphone on your head and talk to your computer.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so I just need to take a break here for a second, Steve.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_02: This is working out great.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_02: You know, it's like we asked the same questions and we're getting answers.
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know what else you'd ever want.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_01: This is as good as if we had that MMA podcasting stuff comedian.
• 6:45
  SPEAKER_01: This is, I think this might even be better.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_01: Might even be better because he he's a he's a regular guy, you know, he's just a regular guy who we can talk to, you know.
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_01: Wow, I I agree.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_01: This is excellent.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_01: So now, uh, Mr.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_01: Rogan, what did you do before comedy?
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_01: How'd you how'd you get into comedy?
• 7:01
  SPEAKER_01: Tell us about that.
• 7:02
  SPEAKER_03: I worked for the government in a series of jobs at locations that are undisclosed and are currently blurred on Google Maps.
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_03: But I just always had this burning need to be the center of attention.
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_03: And I figured there's no better way to be the center of attention than to get into comedy and go to a lot of open mics because at an open mic, you are the center of attention.
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_01: And a lot of fights at open mics.
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_01: Oh my gosh, that's where you really see the fights.
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_03: I know, and you can tell jokes and uh call a fight and be in a fight, and be in a fight, right?
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_01: And and break up a fight and start one.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's just it's so cool.
• 7:42
  SPEAKER_01: It's so cool.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_03: It's cool.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_03: That's uh where I kind of got into it.
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it sounds like you have another job that uh we were not aware of.
• 7:50
  SPEAKER_02: So did you say you do something with the government?
• 7:52
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, are you a mailman?
• 7:54
  SPEAKER_03: I no, well, I am a male and I am a man, but I'm not a male.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, there he is, right?
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I I I really can't talk about what I do at work.
• 8:04
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, it it has something to do with airplanes in the desert, but that's really about all I can say, you know.
• 8:10
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, can I can I just ask, do do the words MK Ultra mean anything to you?
• 8:15
  SPEAKER_01: Isn't that a kind of malt liquor?
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_01: It is, it is.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_01: I had seven of them one night in college, and I just I think I'm finally it's finally wearing off, you know.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_02: I think so.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_02: I hope you didn't fly, Steve, after that.
• 8:25
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, I know.
• 8:26
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't need a fly.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_01: I flew all right.
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_01: But this is so good.
• 8:31
  SPEAKER_01: I you know, Jeff, I think I think we should have more people on who are very similarly named to famous people.
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_01: I think that'd be a whole genre for us.
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_01: And we could have our audience guessing which famous person they're gonna have next.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_01: I I think you're right.
• 8:46
  SPEAKER_02: Maybe we should have Jennifer Banniston on at some point.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_02: I think that that's very doable.
• 8:54
  SPEAKER_01: You know, and and we could ask, we could ask her about the whole nose thing, and she'd say, I I don't know, I have no idea what you're talking about.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't be fun.
• 9:01
  SPEAKER_02: I think it's it's perfect.
• 9:03
  SPEAKER_02: So Jeffrey Joe, Joseph Jeffrey.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, just call him Joe.
• 9:07
  SPEAKER_01: It's gonna be too confusing, Jeff and Jeff.
• 9:09
  SPEAKER_01: Got it, got it, got it for the listening audience.
• 9:11
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_02: So, Joe, uh, this podcast thing, you know, for Steve and I, it's yeah, hasn't exactly been lucrative quite yet.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_02: We're just wondering like what we should expect when we get as famous as you.
• 9:24
  SPEAKER_02: Can you want to give us an idea on how much money you make?
• 9:26
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, because you're making the big money now, Joe.
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_01: You really are.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
• 9:30
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah.
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, I'm literally getting dozens of dollars a month.
• 9:36
  SPEAKER_03: Dozens, it's a lot.
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_03: They are it is, it's more than 20 and less than 30.
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_02: Are they dollar bills or are they tens and twenties, too?
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_03: Well, you know, they send a check because they got to take out the Medicare, yeah.
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_01: Um, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 9:52
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, but I usually clare eight, nine bucks easy every month.
• 9:55
  SPEAKER_03: Wow, every month.
• 9:56
  SPEAKER_01: Wow, we can get there, Jeff.
• 9:58
  SPEAKER_01: I know we can.
• 9:59
  SPEAKER_02: Eight more dollars, and we're there.
• 10:01
  SPEAKER_01: It's eight more than we're making right now, and I tell you, that is we can get there.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_01: It's a big hill, it's a big hill, but we can do it.
• 10:08
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, totally.
• 10:09
  SPEAKER_02: The other question that I would have for you is have you been on other podcast shows?
• 10:14
  SPEAKER_02: Um, any other famous ones where we maybe should try to get some of those people on our show as well.
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_02: Um, anything you could recommend to us?
• 10:22
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I mean, I've done quite a few other podcasts.
• 10:25
  SPEAKER_03: It turns out that uh being named Joe Rogan and having it spelled the same way as Joe Rogan spells his name, even though that shouldn't, you know, Rogan.
• 10:36
  SPEAKER_03: Come on.
• 10:37
  SPEAKER_03: Um, I've been on uh comedy bang bang.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_03: I've been on one with uh Dr.

  SPEAKER_03: Sanjay Gupta.
• 10:43
  SPEAKER_03: I did the Dr.
• 10:44
  SPEAKER_03: Phil one for a while.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_03: I was on him, I was on the Dr.
• 10:48
  SPEAKER_03: Phil podcast for a whole week, and um I did three days on uh on one with Jennifer Aniston.
• 10:55
  SPEAKER_03: Jennifer Aniston?
• 10:56
  SPEAKER_01: Um Jeff, he's a celebrity, and he's met Jennifer Aniston.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_01: Wow, you are my hero.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_01: Was her nose really nice looking?
• 11:03
  SPEAKER_03: I gotta be honest with you guys, I didn't see her nose.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_01: Oh you were looking at the hair camera.
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, because that hair, the hair, the Jennifer, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 11:15
  SPEAKER_02: And did you say that you you met her on comedy gangbang?
• 11:21
  SPEAKER_03: Oh I was on that podcast too.
• 11:25
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, oh okay, okay.
• 11:26
  SPEAKER_03: But uh we were talking comedy bang bang with bang bang, bang, bang, bang bang.
• 11:31
  SPEAKER_01: Oh very close, very similar.
• 11:33
  SPEAKER_01: It's kind of like Rogan and Rogan, you know, it's it's kind of the same thing, right?
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but it's one thing if you get uh Rogan and Rogan confused, it's what another thing if you get bang bang and gangbang confused.
• 11:43
  SPEAKER_01: That would seem worse, yeah.
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_01: That would seem worse.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_01: You know, uh Joe, if you don't mind, we we have a new feature on the show where we take calls from listeners.
• 11:53
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 11:54
  SPEAKER_01: Well, you you up for a couple of calls, Joe?
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_03: I'm here.

  SPEAKER_03: It's not like I gotta get back to my job out there in the desert, uh, you know, out at Area 51 doing anything.
• 12:02
  SPEAKER_01: So oh but you know, I really can't talk.
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_03: I can't talk about my job.

  SPEAKER_03: Not the parts you'd think.
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_01: Oh see, that's so tricky.
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_01: Wow.
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_01: So I uh you probably have to like study a lot to really to do that, because I did that's uh I wouldn't have thought that.
• 12:35
  SPEAKER_03: The biggest thing you have to be able to do to work there is to keep your mouth shut about it, you know.
• 12:39
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you can well and do hosting a podcast, of course you can keep your mouth shut, right?
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_01: Because you know that's the nature of the podcast, right?
• 12:46
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, of course you can.

  SPEAKER_01: But uh Jeff, I have a question for you.
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_01: Uh specific to your your recent nose job.
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_01: Now that you've got the new nose, uh do things smell different?
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_01: Do they smell new to the other?
• 15:06
  SPEAKER_02: Well, Steve, fascinating question.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_02: And to be honest with you, it's one that I'm still kind of sorting through myself.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, with this new nose, um uh Joe, you may not know, but uh I I got a nose job uh a few weeks ago.
• 15:20
  SPEAKER_02: Still kind of uh you know, taking this baby for a spin, but he had it made bigger, yeah.
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_01: Joe.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, there was a little miscommunication there, but I kind of like it, and uh it's it's doing well.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_02: But yeah, in terms of my smells, part of it is you know, I just don't have great hygiene anyway.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_02: And I didn't realize it until I got this nose job because I I smell a lot better now, you know, a lot more uh intensely.
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_02: So it's kind of led to a lifestyle change, you know.
• 15:48
  SPEAKER_02: I'm I'm taking more showers, uh that kind of stuff.
• 15:52
  SPEAKER_01: Soap is a thing for you now, right?

• 20:27
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, absolutely.
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_03: He was um without a doubt the greatest storyteller.
• 20:33
  SPEAKER_03: And then you know, I've always looked up to uh Woody Allen.
• 20:36
  SPEAKER_01: Well, he made you look up to him, you know.
• 20:38
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I am a short person, so look at it.

  SPEAKER_03: Oh my god.
• 20:53
  SPEAKER_03: I had that dream.
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that and and oh funny, you know, tying back to the previous conversation, that's how I was conceived.
• 21:01
  SPEAKER_03: I was conceived on a hunting trip gone wrong in the Holland Tunnel.
• 21:04
  SPEAKER_03: In the Holland tunnel, in the Holland tunnel, yes.
• 21:06
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 21:06
  SPEAKER_03: My mom woke up in the Holland Tunnel, and the rest is uh the history, you know, with the older brothers and whatnot.
• 21:14
  SPEAKER_01: Well, you know, you know, traffic can be so bad, and when there's a backup there, you could sit for a very long time.
• 21:19
  SPEAKER_01: So I could see how someone could be conceived in the Holland Tunnel.
• 21:21
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, that that is possible.
• 21:23
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, it's more than possible.
• 21:24
  SPEAKER_01: I'm the limit fruit by any chance.
• 21:26
  SPEAKER_01: Was this in a 65 impala convertible?
• 21:30
  SPEAKER_01: Black with a red interior.
• 21:31
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, Jeff.
• 21:34
  SPEAKER_02: That sounds great.
• 21:35
  SPEAKER_02: And then, of course, the final question I have, Steve, is uh Joe, do you do you advertise for this uh clandestine job of yours?
• 21:45
  SPEAKER_02: Is there any an opportunity for your promoter or for your podcast?
• 21:49
  SPEAKER_01: Do you advertise for your podcast at all?
• 21:51
  SPEAKER_03: I advertise for my podcast by hanging up these little flyers, like you know, for bands and whatnot.
• 21:58
  SPEAKER_03: I put those uh in the windows of local bars and on uh telephone polls and what have you.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_03: And um then I use actually I use my podcast to advertise for position openings at area 51.
• 22:12
  SPEAKER_03: Wow but I can't talk about that.
• 22:15
  SPEAKER_01: Well you know we we should listen to that podcast because that could be that could be gainful employment for us working at Area 51.
• 22:20
  SPEAKER_01: And you know advertising at bars is good because I people at bars listen to a lot of podcasts.
• 22:26
  SPEAKER_01: When they're sitting there drinking they listen to podcasts.
• 22:29
  SPEAKER_01: I know they do and and you know Joe you could advertise your podcast on our podcast.
• 22:34
  SPEAKER_01: Ooh we could work out a deal here and then we can even go a step further and we could actually be on your podcast.
• 22:42
  SPEAKER_01: We could yes you know we could reciprocate which I think would be great you know you would you would get access to our seven or eight people we'd have access to your uh seven people or seven or eight yeah and uh you know pull our money together I think there's a there's a a chance we can be bigger if we're together yeah absolutely yeah I think that's something worth jumping on well I'm really glad we did this this I am so much better than yeah you know you know sometimes sometimes you have like a a mistake a little mistake I mean I heard Rogan and I thought oh I saw the spelling I thought well it's gotta be him right well you know okay so it's not so he pronounces it a little different but are your ancestry from like Scotland or somewhere is that is that where they got this Rogain pronunciation uh we're actually Argentinian oh since the since after the war we were Argentinian oh should be Rogan then yeah I guess yeah it was actually in the older older older country it was pronounced Rogain ah okay excellent and and for me Steve you know it kind of goes back to my nose a little bit because you know I wanted to get my nose reduced it ended up becoming a enlarged but at the end of the day it's better and I think this is the same situation where you know we're looking for something kind of the opposite we're looking for something bigger we got something smaller but it's better.
• 24:09
  SPEAKER_01: But it's better it's better and and just like your nose we can now smell a good thing when we stick our nose in it.
• 24:16
  SPEAKER_02: Can you smell it from over there?
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_01: Because I you know well you probably can't the other side of the glass that glass really stops pretty much everything because I pretty much everything pretty much pretty much yeah I mean I I one time sorry about that guy a bunch of us had burritos here one time and there was a guy over there had no idea that we were eating burritos so you know it stops it pretty much stops.
• 24:35
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah it's a guy with a cigar over there one time that didn't quite stop that but but still but but I did plus I don't want to get into the into the nitty gritty of this but you know that surgery I had Steve I didn't really um come out of it you know completely healed so there's some open source and they smell a little bit but I think it's normal and I think I'll be fine but yeah it has a little bit of a of a smell that I don't know it just doesn't seem quite right but what do I know?
• 25:03
  SPEAKER_01: I'm not a doctor so we're gonna defer that video podcast for a while that you know until those open source get healed.
• 25:10
