The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Wouldn't you tell them to don't get ahead in the straightaway? They didn't tell. The driver and co-driver didn't know.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They didn't know. And Formula One is not big in America, which is odd. So how do you feel about it here in Austin? Well, I saw it in Austin. It's amazing. I love it. I went to COTA. We have that up there?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's COTA. My friend Bobby owns the place. So he took me around and showed me, and we went there for the races.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Awesome. The track's incredible, and it's so fast. They're going so fast. It's so wild to watch. And I find it amazing how huge NASCAR is here, where they're just going around in an oval. They do have some street circuits, don't they?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Way more complex. And the vehicles themselves are so incredible, and they're so expensive. It's just unbelievable how much money is involved in Formula One. So it makes sense why people would cheat a little bit.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And it... That's a rare car. Oh, I love it. It's so beautiful.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But it's also the margins of victory are so slim. If you have the same horsepower, same compound tires, just different engineers... Putting it all together in different drivers.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So this one, I sent it to Shark Works, and they juiced it up to somewhere around 300 horsepower. Nothing crazy. But, oh, my God, it's so tactile, and it's alive. When I drive it, I'm smiling. I have this big smile on my face like I'm on a fucking ride. I was going to bring my Gunther Works here today, but it's raining. Have you got one of those? Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And how much of that engineering and technology gets to consumer cars? It's a good question.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It has to be with the Defense Department and the construction of fighter jets.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, you know, they're doing those fighter jets now with AI running them. And they beat human pilots 100% of the time in dogfights.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's incredible. It's so nuts that they put you next to that thing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah. And they have like, what, 30 minutes of flight time before they run out of gas?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Because they're less dangerous. That's the whole idea, isn't it, really? But I don't think there's anything dangerous in that 964. That's mine.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That is so wild that it can do that, just hover in the air like that and shoot its draft down. Fucking crazy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I think you're overthinking it. I just love it. I think you and your passion for automobiles is all you need. Do it on the internet. It'll be huge.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They're pretty badass. If you can get a hold of one of those, that's great, too. I'm an F-22. Have you been to an air show and seen one of those? I flew in an F-A-18. Did you? Yeah, with the Blue Angels. Wow. It was insane. Insane. Yeah, insane. Just the G-force, the physical effect on your body is so extraordinary. Yeah. You know, they don't use G-suits either. They don't use gravity suits.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So you have to hook. So you hold on to the... And then you do that breathing thing. Hook, hook. You're forcing blood, and you feel your consciousness closing like an elevator door. You see it. You see the darkness coming from the left and the right, and you're fighting it off. I wasn't very good at it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, you have to fight it off. I think I got to seven and a half G's, but those guys can go to like nine, 10 G's like that. It's fucking insane. The pressure and the maneuverability of these things, the pilot took me through like this canyon and you're, you know, 100, 200 feet off the ground. Just flying through this can sideways. It's fucking insane. Insane.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
How fast did he go in this thing? Oh my God. Look at that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, well, those guys are all jacked. That's one thing I found out about the Blue Angels. When you go to their training facility, there's weightlifting equipment everywhere. You have to have muscle because you're literally brute force. But you should have been brilliant at it then.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I love talking to you too. Thanks for being here, man. It's great to see you again after all these years. I'll be back in 10 years. No, let's have it quicker. And let's definitely get you on YouTube, on the internet. Do your own thing.

#2199 - Chris Harris
Not only that, there's a problem with guardrails. Jesus. They're too heavy. They go right through the guardrails like butter.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, and they're so good. I have a 2005 M3. It's an E46. Peak car. Peak car. It's such a great car. I know. It's not too powerful, but it's so delightful. It doesn't have a radio. It's got cloth seats. I fucking love it. Cloth seats, that is rare. Yeah, cloth seats.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
No, no, because there's something about, like, seeing the improvement on a vehicle. Like, getting a vehicle and going, yeah, you know, the suspension is okay, but these shocks are like, I could adjust this and maybe this and maybe I can get a little wider wheel in this and...
The Joe Rogan Experience

Yeah. I had friends that knew him, but I never met him. I've still never met him.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
He was trying to mod it. He didn't even care. You almost get killed by a hammer.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, that is the ultimate mod car because they've been around for so long in exactly the same form and there's such an aftermarket and everybody just goes crazy. Find me a standard one that don't exist.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, I got a Nismo. I got last year's model, the Nismo. So I got it new. It was still laying around. But I got it because I know you can fuck around with them. So I'm never going to get rid of it. I'm going to keep it forever. And I'm going to juice it up to probably 1,000 horsepower or something stupid.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah. Yeah, it'll never be the same. I mean, they're about to do that to Porsches probably. They're about to do that. They're already doing that with the M5, right? The new M5 is a hybrid.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
My friend Tom Segura had one of those that he sent off to get juiced up. I forget, Dynan did it? I forget who did it.

#2199 - Chris Harris
It was V8. The E39. Yeah, I had it in, what year was it? 2015 or something? What was that? Which one would that be? That would have been the V10. It wasn't a V10.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Especially an E46 because it's such a plain looking car. That's a gorgeous car. We actually had someone reach out to Jamie. That's how I bought it. Because we were talking about how great they are. I was like, I'd love to find a low-mile one. And this one has super low miles. I forget what it is, but it's really low miles.
The Joe Rogan Experience

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's not even really a Porsche. Well, it has its own chassis plate.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Right. They can't make a Restomod. Porsche could not make a Singer.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Or they'd have to buy a company. But could Porsche make resto mods of their vehicles?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
potential litigation right you know because if one of them went into a wall right you know you're suddenly you get to sue porsche right also especially if you're selling something like one of those old widow makers where and people don't understand that if i mean i have a 2007 gt3 rs and uh it's still like around corners you let off off the gas it'll whip around on you yeah
The Joe Rogan Experience

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's the story with the guy from Fast and the Furious. What's his name?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Paul Walker. Paul Walker. That's the story with him. They had old tires on that car.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's incredible how much the technology has come along in that regard.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
How come no one can figure out how to make a tire without air?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, the tire without air thing, for safety purposes, there's a lot of reasons why you would want a tire that, I mean, I know they did make them. They do have them.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Because there's no air in it? That makes sense. Because you'd have so much more rubber. But I think they tried to mitigate that by having it clear, so you see through it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, I don't know. It's probably a performance issue, too, because by manipulating the tire pressure, you can get it just right, whereas you're not going to be able to manipulate anything once the compound is... Exactly. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Right, right, right. So, your experience at Top Gear...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
You get great perks like the Mastercraft Weapon Collection and the Gobble Gum Pack for Zombies. Call of Duty Black Ops 6 pre-order now. This episode is brought to you by the Farmer's Dog. Dogs are amazing. They're loyal. They're lovable. Just having Marshall around can make my day ten times better.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Let's explain to people that aren't aware of what Top Gear is and how Top Gear works. Because I know there's a lot of Americans that never watch the show. You guys do a lot of really crazy stunts with automobiles. Not necessarily just cars, but big trucks and all kinds of crazy things. And some of them are quite ridiculous.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So did the conversation between you and the network completely stop after the accident?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Right. Well, that is the problem with those shows is they always want to keep pushing the limit, and it's generally the producers who don't quite understand the limitations of the vehicles.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
When I was hosting Fear Factor, there was a couple of times where I was like, what the fuck are we doing? Especially the second season. Fear Factor started in 2001 and went to 2007, and then we came back again in 2011, and we only did six episodes. And they tried to make it just really ramped up. And when it was canceled, it was actually canceled because people had to drink donkey sperm.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, which was pretty minor. I mean, it's disgusting, but it wasn't anything that was going to risk anyone's lives. But I was really feeling like if this keeps going, the stunts are so spectacular and so big. We're launching cars through moving trains. There was a moving train, and then the train had all these cardboard boxes in it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
We launch a car off a ramp sideways, and it goes through the train. You have to time it just right so you don't hit the car into one of the big metal. And someone in the car? Yeah, driving it, yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
How about that? That's so insane. How about that? Look at when it goes over itself like that. Oh, my God. That is so ridiculous. And then the yank.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, but it became very popular on YouTube. It did. Yeah. I mean, it's a great show. It was a great show.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I was always torn on those type of moments on Top Gear because I just wanted to watch car reviews. I wanted to watch people have fun with cars. But then for the casual people, you have to do something stupid like bungee jump with a car off the side of a dam. It's like... I'm not interested. Maybe it's because I hosted Fear Factor for so long. I've seen so many things like that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They're not interesting to me. I want to hear a car enthusiast rave about the fun they're having while they're driving an automobile. Maybe you should produce a car show.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yes, right? So that's where it belongs. Like, where I found about you was online. Yeah. You know, and I don't remember what was the first video that I watched of you, but I do remember that green Porsche.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's very, very saturated. And there's so many different types of markets now too.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It is. But all you need is one thing to take off. And then all of a sudden you're being suggested to millions and millions of people, which is interesting about the algorithm. And if you just look at one type of vehicle, then you're like, I really just got interested really recently in the Ineos Grenadier. I was like, what a fascinating idea. What a limited market, by the way, too.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yes, yes. Similar. I mean, it's essentially a new vehicle, but for the casual, it looks like a Defender. It really does. But it's kind of better, kind of quite a bit better. And, you know, really interesting. BMW six-cylinder supercharged engine. And so now when I open up YouTube, it's like, oh, Grenadiers. It's all Ineos.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's just constantly all these off-roading Australia dudes and all these different people sending me these things.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But it was in a time where people didn't have smartphones.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
You could have had the exact same show under a different name and people would have loved it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's gone. That waiting for a very specific time to watch a program, no one is interested in that anymore.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I see what you're saying. The only thing that still exists that you have to wait for is live sports.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So live sports where you're watching a game. The game starts at 8 p.m. You have to be there at 8 p.m. It's not going to wait for you. There it is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, I would much prefer you without producers and network executives and all these different people telling you what to do. What I like about podcasts, what I like about YouTube content from people like Matt Farah, is I know it's one human being. This is their perspective. This is what they enjoy. They really do love these vehicles.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And they talk about it without any influence of other human beings. So you're getting this... singular viewpoint, which I think is the most attractive thing about it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I really enjoyed it, though. I enjoyed you being on it. You're great. You're my favorite automotive journalist. Well, that's very kind of you.
The Joe Rogan Experience

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
What's really spectacular about YouTube is there's only one YouTube. Think about how big the internet is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, yeah. It's a Raptor R that John Hennessey jumps up to 1,000 horsepower. It's fucking ridiculous.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
He's just like, thanks. Well, China has Apple stores that aren't even Apple. Does it? Yes. China has full Apple stores where they're selling counterfeit laptops, phones, everything. None of it is really... I don't even know if they do phones anymore. But they had Apple stores that Apple found out about that weren't even... Nothing was Apple.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Right. Nothing. I just find it really odd. It's very odd. Yeah. And it's also they feel like they could just say a few things, you know, like, hey, look at Chris Harris doing this. And that's enough. And also. That's enough of an alteration.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
No, the content world is very strange. It's very strange where people can use your stuff and do entire shows based entirely on your stuff. Oh, it's just extraordinary.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, the best is that he had no shame about it. But actually, culturally...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yep, that's about as American as it gets. Dodge Rams and Ford F-150s. Yeah, those are the most American vehicles. A thousand horsepower in a truck. It's ridiculous. We never thought it would be possible, did we? No. Zero to 60 in three seconds for a giant pickup truck. It's awesome. And it sounds great, too. It just has this beautiful rumble.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
China has made – they make some unbelievable cars. I've watched some of them reviewed online. You can't even get them in America. But I watched some of them reviewed online, and they're just fucking fantastic.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
There's also a problem with European cars in that European cars are always known for having a great resale value. Particularly Lamborghini and Porsche and Ferrari. You can actually make more money off of them in a few years than... But not electric ones. Nope. That's the problem. Like electric tie cans, you know, those things are gorgeous. That's an incredible vehicle.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Good luck trying to sell that thing. I saw Lucid Airs, which is a fantastic car. Have you been in one of those? No, I haven't. Wow. I've heard the Sapphire is magnificent.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
You can't – you're going to get like half the price of that thing in a year.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, it's terrible for people that live in apartment complexes. It doesn't exist. Unless you have some sort of a charging station where you park your car and everybody has one so you can leave it charged overnight. It's rough. But look at the cost of them. Yeah. Very expensive. Terrible resale value.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's a time machine. It really is. It merges in traffic silently. It goes faster than anything. It doesn't seem real. It's incredible. And the new one that I'm getting, it's already sent to unplugged performance. Are you aware of those guys?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Do you think you'll be allowed to drive that in 10 years' time in this state? Maybe in this state. Yeah, but if you leave, they'll have people at the border waiting in the bushes to arrest you the moment you cross over if you don't have an EV. And in California, they have a mandate in 2035. After 2035, no internal combustion engine vehicles are allowed to be sold in the state. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
No, well, they changed the suspension. It's not any faster. They use the same powertrain, but they changed the suspension. They widened the front and rear, and they upgrade the brakes. They make it much more just agile.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, well, they're shocking. Roadster, which is going to be insane, which is basically vaporware now. Didn't people like pay full price for those things like five years ago?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I'm sure you love your dog just as much, and you want to do your best to help them live longer, healthier, happier lives. And a healthy life for your dog starts with healthy food, just like it does for us. There's a reason having a balanced diet is so important. So how do you know if your dog's food is as healthy and as safe as it can be?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, it's undeniable. And it's also, he's doing that with rockets and he's also doing that with the internet. So he bought X or Twitter and turned it into X. And that's a massive disruptor too.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
The toxicity is just an inherent quality of people being able to post anonymously. You're never going to get away from that. But you just don't read it. That's the most important thing. If you're a public figure, people are always going to have opinions of you. And there's a lot of shitty people out there. And they're the most vocal and they're the most persistent. Let them talk.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I hope that's not the case, but probably. I think they would like to do that in America. But I think it's important for whistleblowers. It's important for... People that work in an organization, they want to expose corruption, they want to expose something, they want to expose some illegal thing they're doing in regards to the environment. It's very important. You have to have people.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They want to expose the government. It's very important to allow people to be anonymous.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I don't read negative things, and I don't engage in it. I'm not afraid of it. I know what it is, and I don't like it. I don't think it's necessary. I don't think it's good for you. I don't think anybody gets any benefit out of it. I don't think the person gets benefit out of you calling them a cocksucker. I don't think you get any benefit out of calling them a cocksucker.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I don't think it helps, and I just look at it. I do what I call post and ghost.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I post things and I go away and I don't care what happens in the comments. And and also I'm very aware of bots. I'm very aware because we've done a lot of research and research. We've done a lot of we'd have a lot of conversations and done a lot of reading about the amount of content that's on especially Twitter. That's not organic. And it's an extraordinary amount.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
There's an FBI analyst that estimated it to be in the range of 80%. 80% of all the accounts he thinks are bullshit. And they're used to promote specific narratives. They're used to argue and shame people. They're used to attack certain political figures and public figures.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
and then that conversation becomes completely changed because there's a swarm of people that have a very specific narrative and then the casual person read oh well maybe they're right okay this guy is a piece of i always thought i was a nice guy and then it everything changes and Just don't engage. I'm interested in reading people and their toxic opinions sometimes.
The Joe Rogan Experience

But oftentimes I'll go, that doesn't seem real. And then I'll go to their account. And sure enough, they have 39 followers. And it looks like they're probably in fucking Russia somewhere in a troll farm.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's because they're not there. It's a very inhuman way to communicate. We're communicating in text to a person that you don't see their face. You don't look in their eyes. You don't feel the pain of what you're saying to them. It's not the way human beings are meant to communicate with each other.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
We were meant to communicate with each other like this. Oh, no. That's one of the reasons why podcasts are so successful and one of the reasons why I only do them with people in the room also. It's because the only person I've done without that in recent times is Edward Snowden for obvious reasons. But you don't want to – that's not a good way to communicate.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's not even a good way to communicate with your friends through text message.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
You want to be there talking so the person says something and you go – Oh, OK. I get it. I get it. So why did you think that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, there's nothing wrong with doing podcasts over Zoom. The problem is with guests.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, it doesn't work with... You can do it, but I know people that do it with guests, and they're fine. They adjust, and they're very good podcasts. My friend Duncan does a lot of people through Zoom, and they're great. They're great conversations.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yes. Yeah, well, you have to be self-assessing, though. You can't be a person that is clueless about how other people see you. Yes. Because that's not good either. So you have to be a person who's objective and introspective, and you have to be able to honestly assess whether or not what you've done is good or bad. And we've all done good things, and we've all had bad work.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And when you put out bad work and you know it's bad... Just accept the fact that it's bad, feel that pain, grow because of it, use it as fuel to be better in the next thing that you do, and that's it. But don't wallow in other people telling you you suck or other people attacking you. There's no benefit.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's just as bad for you because then you're like, oh, I'm pretty fucking amazing. Like, you know, that's bad for everybody too. That's not good for you. Nobody benefits from being told they're amazing. You know if you did something that's good. So congratulations. You worked hard. You put out something that's good. Leave it alone. Keep moving. Keep moving.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Don't read all that positive shit and blow your head up. And that happens to a lot of people. They get enamored. It's called audience capture. And you see it – one of the things that happens particularly with comedians, you see especially if they start getting involved in political commentary, they start getting audience capture. Like you see it a lot with people who lean right.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Because there's not as many right-wing voices on the internet. You get a tremendous amount of support. All these people say, you're the only one out there speaking the truth. And they're like, you're the only one out there speaking the truth. And you start believing that bullshit. And then you change your perspective. Yes. Audience capture.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, they're also – it's like it's an unhealthy relationship in the first place because you have executives and producers who want to make a thing but they're not the talent. And so they're also not the experts. So they have their own ideas and they have to have some sort of an impact on it to justify their position.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So you see people having ridiculous suggestions that everybody has to entertain because Bob is an executive. Okay, Bob is the fucking co-producer. We've got to listen to Bob. And Bob's got some stupid fucking idea that you have to hear out. And if you say, Bob, it's not going to work because of this, now you're in an argument with Bob and Bob's mad at you.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But Iceland's cold, and the battery capacity, when it gets really cold, diminishes pretty rapidly.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's the difference between being hired and doing your own thing. There you go.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Does it have to be fresh? What happens if you get a tainted one? Here it is. Tails from the fringe. Beaver gland vodka. Wow. So that's the beaver's butt right there. The gland in the vodka.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's where you belong. You belong doing your own thing. Chris Harris on cars was awesome.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, a bunch of people were trying all these different things. Like they were trying to monetize it so you had to subscribe online or to access the content.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They have been diminished greatly by the lack of people wanting to buy paper newspapers.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's been a big impact on them. It also changes the way they do journalism because now everything's very clickbaity, you know, which is a real problem as well.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, initially. Yeah, we lost like half. But we got it back pretty quickly.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I was pointing that out when I first saw you here, that you have the tiniest little iPhone, the little baby mini. My friend Yoni has one of those, too. I admire it. I admire that you don't even have a case on yours, which is even crazier.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I judge people so harshly when I get in their car and they have some stupid fucking thing on their steering wheel. I'm like, what is wrong with you? Who are you? Do you wear mittens on top of that, you fucking idiot? What are you doing?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, it's kind of funny It's brilliant and I want that I haven't I have a really we were talking about this at the beginning before we got rolling But it really is its own country.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, it's very different than the rest of the country It's very independent and one of the reasons is the history of this place like for the longest time the Comanche dominated this territory and you couldn't get across the land and And so the people that eventually figured out how to fight off the Comanche and settle down, they're the craziest, most rugged individuals ever.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's the Texas Rangers. They figured out how to cold camp. And there's a photograph of Jack Hayes, who's the original Texas Ranger, out in the lobby. And that's why he's there. Without those psychopaths that figured out a way to fight off the most ferocious band of Indians that ever existed in the plains. Yeah. No one would be here. So they were very reluctant to join this whole union thing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
No, and there's this religious ideology that's attached to climate change. It has that sort of fever-pitched religious aspect to it. And most people, when you corner them, even the real zealots, most people really don't understand why.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, it just flavors the independence of the entire state and the pride of the state. It's very different.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's a balance. So Austin is this preposterous, progressive blue city that's surrounded by ranchers with guns. So this is saying keep Austin weird and surrounded. And I think that's accurate because you've got a lot of universities here. You have some really intelligent, interesting people here, great restaurants, great nightlife. But also you're surrounded by Texas, Texas, the real Texas.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
The majority of Texas is like ranchers and small town people and they're heavily armed.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
We don't have that. Well, we also have the First Amendment. And you see the consequences of not having the Second Amendment in the UK because they can tell you, we're going to lock you in jail for a Facebook post. And you can't really do that here. You can't just force people to go to jail. That was an issue also in Australia.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Australia, they took everyone's guns away after one mass shooting, I think, in the 1990s. And they were able to round people up and put them in camps when they found out they had a cold. It was crazy. You can't do that in America. The Second Amendment protects the First Amendment.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
We have a real caste system over there. You have a class system over there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
how much data there is on the impact that human beings have on climate change, how much is being done in China and India that will not change at all and is only going to get more extreme, and what little impact you have.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But there's also this, because of that, because there's these shitty opinions and nasty people and all this information flowing around and bots and all this other stuff, it makes you consider the nature of speech. And it makes you consider, like, it gives you a choice. Do I choose to engage in this kind of stuff? Do I choose to read this kind of stuff? Or do I just recognize it for what it is?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Like, I don't drink moonshine. I don't go to the... If I go to the supermarket and there's a jug of moonshine, I'll go, well, I need to buy that and start drinking it. No, I don't drink. I don't want it. I know it's there. I don't drink it. Right. So you can choose to avoid the things that suck in life. You can. But through the prism of parenthood, I've got three kids.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But it doesn't matter. It's just shitty human beings with bad lives that want to affect you.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, you recognize the real shit nature of some human beings.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And when you're confronted with it, we're kind of always aware there's bad people in the world. But when you're confronted with it over such a superficial thing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's just being attached to that iconic name. That's all it is. And then also the way that show was cancelled because Jeremy punched a producer. Did you have to work with the same producer Jeremy punched?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, you're not going to follow that. You're just going to be different. He's a completely unique person. I think they did Elon dirtier than anybody ever did. Oh, they were naughty with that. They did a terrible thing. They were naughty with that. They did a terrible thing, and I talked to him about it, and he was furious. They pretended that his car died, and they did it for a sketch.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And this is the early days of Tesla, when Tesla had just that little tiny car that was basically a Lotus with an electric engine.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, the original one, which is a cool-looking little car. And they pretended that it died on them, and they did it for a sketch, and they got away with it because it's entertainment, and they were allowed to create a script. And apparently someone had got a hold of the script and read in the script before they even filmed it. Then the car dies. and then we have to figure out why the car died.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So what kind of an impact do you think that had on the sales of his car? I mean, it had to be extraordinary. You're watching the most popular automobile show in the world, and they say your car sucked so bad that it died when they were testing it, when it didn't die.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And you're just lying. You're lying. You're lying about this car breaking. It did not break.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, how many of those 1988 Toyota Land Cruisers are still on the road with hundreds of thousands of miles?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
First of all, we have a long history of internal combustion engines as recreation vehicles, and we love them. I think it's completely unfair. If you're still running coal plants that power electric vehicles, which is a fact in America, they have coal plants that power electric vehicles. They do far more damage to the environment.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, that's where you shine. And that's why you should only be doing things on your own. I think I will after this. Yeah. Fuck that wellness show, too. Listen, I have to take a leak. Let's come back. We'll take a little quick break. Dogs in cars is a good subject. Yeah. I love having my dog in the car. My dog loves going in the car. He knows we're going to go do something fun.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
The dog, so is it sensible to suggest that the dog is the ultimate car companion? Sure, because they're never upset.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, they're like, yay, we're in the car. It must mean we're going somewhere.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, Farmer's Dog gives you that peace of mind by making fresh, real food developed by board-certified nutritionists to provide all the nutrients your dog needs. And their food is human-grade. which means it's made to the same quality and safety standards as human food. Very few pet foods are made to this strict standard. And let's be clear, human-grade food doesn't mean the food is fancy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And if you tell me I can't have an internal combustion engine while you're doing that to power electric vehicles, I'm going to say fuck you because fuck you is the right thing to say because that doesn't make any sense. And there's also this weird thing that is attached to this. This is a business, the green energy business.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
As long as they're accustomed to it, that's the thing. When I have had dogs in the past that I didn't take in cars often, you take them in the car, they're kind of freaking out. Why are we moving? They start throwing up. But it's awful.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I love them. I see them. I'm like, what did you do to that fucking thing?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Oh, they must be smelling just so many different things.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They apparently can... If you have a hamburger that has like cheese, pickles, onions, ketchup, they can smell all the individual items in the hamburger. They smell everything. They have like a reference of... A menu. Yeah, it's just very different than ours. So do they have like Terminator vision? Is there red code going across and they're like... Well, they have no language too, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And these people that are involved in the green energy business have done a tremendous job in pushing these politicians to promote this very specific propaganda about what you can and what you can't do and what we need to do and where we need to get to and what bills we need to pass in order to get to this position. And they're all profitable. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So it's all on instincts, which is fascinating. Because, you know, nobody taught my dog to pee on things. He just knows that you step... What's this? He pees on it, you know? When I like take him on trails and he finds out where all the other dogs have peed, like, oh, I'm going to pee there too.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They're empaths, especially when they really love you. There's something about them. Yeah. My dog understands language. He doesn't know just like sit, give me your paw, lie down, stay.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, he knows things. Like we could be going towards the house. I go, no, let's go around the back. And he's like, okay, we're going around the back. He knows what I'm saying. It's like real subtle, real simple.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, they're like human beings, though, in that it depends on the life of the dog. Like people get killed by wild dogs. Yeah. Like in Georgia, some couple recently was attacked and someone was killed by wild dogs. Because the dogs are fending for themselves. They live horrible lives. Now, people that live horrible lives are shit people, right? They're dangerous shit people.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Whereas a dog like Marshall that said nothing but love and he's a golden retriever, he's bred that way, he's just a genuine joy to everyone he meets. Like, you're my new friend. Everybody just assumes. But you've met dogs. They see people. They're sketchy. They're scared of men. Maybe they were beaten. They're a reflector of the environment in which they've been brought to. Exactly.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Dogs are just like us. They're just like us. You get a dog like Carl. Carl thinks everybody loves him, and everybody wants to play, and that's what he does. He just runs up to you and tries to play because that's his whole life. That's all he's ever experienced is being taken care of.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
There's a great story that you can find that's on YouTube. There's a clip of my friend Steve Rinella. And he was on a Fognac Island. And they were elk hunting. And they had shot an elk. And... A Fognac Island is an incredibly difficult place to traverse. The bush is dense and thick, and the bears are enormous. A Fognac is connected to Kodiak. By a small land strip, I believe.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And that's the problem that nobody wants to talk about. This is all business. And like most businesses, like the business of vaccines or the businesses of infrastructure or military, there's a lot of money being exchanged. And that's why it's being promoted. This isn't some completely altruistic, we need to save the world and this is what's wrong. It's not true. It's not true.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's certainly like right next to Kodiak. I might be wrong about that. I think it maybe used to be. I'm not sure. But the point is they are coastal brown bears and coastal brown bears are the same thing as a grizzly bear. But their diet is very different. So their diet is so rich in protein from salmon. They have so they're enormous. They could be eighteen hundred pounds fat.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They could be 11 feet tall. They're fucking huge. They're preposterously big. And you can't imagine how big they are unless you really encounter them. So my friend Steve, he was with a group of friends. They had shot this elk and he was filming it for a television show called Meat Eater. They shot this elk and they put most of it up in the tree and they carry some of it back to camp.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And camp is six hours of trekking through the train. So then they come back the next day. They trek six hours. They find the spot. They sit down and they start eating lunch. They don't realize that a bear has claimed that meat. And so the bear charged through the camp and one of the guys winds up on top of the bear.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
The bear barrels through the people and this guy is literally riding the back of the bear for about 30 yards before he falls off of it. One of my friends, my friend Giannis, it is gnashing its teeth about 18 inches from his face as it runs by. Now, imagine a head this big. I mean, the head is like this, isn't it? Like this. Enorm. I mean, so big. Just impossibly big.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And it's gnashing its teeth 18 inches away from his head as it runs by. He hits it with a trekking pole. Like wax it with a trekking pole. The way Steve described it, he said, the most reptilian part of your brain. is ignited where you no longer have like, what should I do? There's no, there's no thinking in terms, there's no language.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So in the flight, chaos, full chaos, full chaos, terrifying chaos. No one had their gun in front of them. No one, no one knew what to do. They were all the gun, like pistols were in the packs. Rifles were sitting down over there. No one was prepared. No one thought the bear was there. They didn't understand that it was there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But even a documentary's not gonna do it. You have to experience them. You have to actually be around one and see it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I've only seen one grizzly bear in the wild and it wasn't big. It was about six feet. But it looked at me so much different than any other animal that I've ever seen. It looks right through you. Like, am I going to eat you?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah. Are you a food source? Am I going to eat you? What are you?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's what it really is. And there's an actual animal called Gigantopithecus that existed alongside human beings that was an 8 to 10 foot tall bipedal ape that lived in Asia and could have come across the Bering land bridge.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And there's also... Native Americans have some enormous number of names for these creatures, different tribes. So they don't have fake animals. They don't have a bunch of dragons and stuff that doesn't exist.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
California killed all the bears, all the grizzlies. Well, the California state flag is a grizzly bear. And their bears were similar, I believe, in size to coastal brown bears, the grizzlies, the brown bears that used to live there. And there's a place in California called Lavec, there's a town called Lavec that was named after, I believe his name was Stephen Lavec.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
He was the last man to get killed by a brown bear in California before they eradicated them. So this is in the 1800s, I guess. So they just started killing them all. They just killed them. Fuck these things. They're killing everybody. Yeah. Let's just kill them. You can sort of see why. Oh, yeah. But a polar bear is even more madness again, isn't it? Oh, yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It just doesn't sound the same. It doesn't feel the same.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Have you ever seen that BBC show where they put the guy in the glass cube? Oh, my God.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It is so terrifying. The thing is just smelling meat inside that cube and trying to get through it to get to him. It's biting it, and you see its massive jaws, and they don't eat anything but meat. Yeah. So they're the most dangerous of all polar bears. And ironically, they're the ones that we make seem to be the cutest.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Fuck that thing. How do you know that's going to work, by the way? Did you try that out on a bear? It looks like a shit X-Wing fighter, doesn't it, from the inside? And this bear just gets to it. It's like, oh, there's meat in there. How do I get to that meat? And we make those things out to be our friends. That's the, what would you do for a Klondike bar? They sell Coca-Cola.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They sell Klondike bars. And this bear is just a fucking super predator.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Only you could prevent forest fires. And they want to eat you. Yeah, they want to eat you. They want to eat anything that's slow. I mean, that's what they're there for. They're nature's cleanup crew.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
There's some pistols that you can... effectively unload into a bear and stop them. A .50 cal would stop it, would it? Yeah, well, sure, a .50 cal. I don't think they have a .50 cal pistol, but they have 40 Magnums, 44 Magnums.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
You have to shoot it multiple times. Yeah, not one. And, you know, if you have a .38 or a 9mm, good luck. Good luck. It'll bounce right off its head. Their heads are so thick. You could literally shoot it in the forehead and it would probably bounce off its forehead. I mean, they bite each other. You've seen them go to war with each other when they bite each other. Oh, God.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They have insane amounts of power and bite force. And they're just clamping down on each other's face. And they'll do it for half an hour and walk away like it was nothing. Okay. That versus a big gorilla. That's a good question. We've had that question many times. What is it? I think the gorilla is at a severe disadvantage because it doesn't really kill anything. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They don't exist. It takes too long to charge. You can't just pull over and charge. It takes hours.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So the gorilla just gnashes its teeth at other gorillas and makes like he's a badass and they have incredible power, but they don't even eat meat. Whereas the bear, all it does is run around killing things. It's all it does. Kills things and eats dead things. And it's what it wants to do. I got my money on the bear. I love it. I love it. What I know about is cars.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, they're fascinating. It's a fascinating part of our world. And anthropomorphizing is a really fascinating aspect of it. And I think in America, it happened with Teddy Roosevelt, with the teddy bear. I think that's the beginning of the end. And then Disney movies were a huge problem. Disney movies are a huge problem because all the bears are your friend.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They all talk to everybody and say, why would you kill the bear? Like that is a giant forest dog. That's an evil animal that it doesn't give a fuck about you or your kids. It'll pull you out of your tent. It'll eat you 100 percent. And they're wonderful and they're beautiful. We should definitely keep a healthy population of them. I'm not saying we should eradicate them, but.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Know what they are and don't be influenced by these goddamn cartoons. Cartoons and movies, which have fucked people's heads up.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Also, if you feed them, then they become accustomed to getting food from that particular area, and then you kind of fuck them up because then they lose their ability to hunt. If you do it too often, if you provide them with food every day, you're going to fuck them up.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, do you know that they, I believe it was the UN, passed some sort of regulations on cargo ships. And because of these regulations to make them more, pollute less, the side effect, the unintended consequences were the ocean got warmer. The surface of the ocean where it was measured got warmer because there's no longer a pollution layer over the ocean where these things are traveling. Right.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, whole. Whole. Just throw it down. They'll do it to pigeons.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
No, there's so many videos of different birds throwing down a whole largemouth bass. And it's like, how is it even getting in your mouth? They have these skinny little necks and they swell up. And they have the fins popping out of the tails, popping out of their mouth. Yeah, they're pretty extraordinary creatures, and they're essentially dinosaurs.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, very lucky they're small. It's also interesting that people, they catch them and snap their claws off and throw them back in the water because their claws will regenerate.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Look at that guy holding one. You get a perspective. What is that? The size of that thing. What is that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Wow. Look at the size of that thing. They are freakish. Where do they live? They live on a couple of islands. 3,300 newtons. That's so nuts. That could take your hand off. Oh yeah. Wow. The bite of—it's stronger than the bite of most land animals, including leopards, bears, and wild dogs. And it looks like something from a horror movie.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Do you know there's some speculation that that's what the fate of Amelia Earhart was? Yes. So when I read that, I just— That she crashed, got on this island, and the coconut crabs ate her.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I mean, luckily, I think they clamp slowly. Yeah, but more than a leopard. What the fuck, man? So what is that thing biting through? Is that metal?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Which is so crazy. So, I know. Do you know that there's more green on Earth today than there was in the last 100 years?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's a hard life. It's a hard life for them, you know? Yeah. And you can't make them pets.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's so bizarre. I would have never imagined that. I would have never guessed.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Are those things, do they taste good? Look at that! Are the coconut crabs delicious?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I wonder why. Jesus Christ, that's insane. That's so big. I had no idea that there was a crab that's longer than a human being. Absolutely disgraceful thing. Can you eat a Japanese spider crab? Oh, I think you do, yeah. It looks like they got them on ice, so it looks like preparing a Japanese spider crab is no easy task. Oh, you got to find a big pot. Yeah, right? You got to break it up, I guess.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Wow. Now, what about, find out about the coconut crab. Can you eat coconut crabs? I might want to eat one. I'm going to send you a picture if I get one.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's because of the carbon dioxide, because trees eat carbon dioxide.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I once... Yes, it says above that. An aphrodisiac. Oh, but look, it says... Yes, coconut crabs are eaten as a delicacy on some islands and are considered an aphrodisiac in other places. Some say they're tasty and don't need any extra seasoning or cooking and can be eaten after boiling for about 10 to 15 minutes. However, the species is threatened by intensive hunting. Oh, poor babies.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They ate Amelia Earhart. Whose fucking side are you on?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
No, but I think where that comes from, I have a feeling it's genetic memory. I think that's where aphidiophobia comes from and arachnophobia, fear of snakes and spiders. Because some people, we've experienced that on Fear Factor as well. Some people have a real, it seems like a genetic, irrational fear of certain things.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And I really feel like that is some memory from either an ancestor getting bit or seeing someone get bit and die. I think there's something to that. There's a reason why it exists in some people and not in others.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Right. No, I think it's completely a genetic memory. That's my number one guess. Cuba was fascinating because I suppose as an American citizen, you can't go there, can you? Can you go there now? I think you used to be able to go there. I think during the Obama administration, they made it so you can go there. It's an amazing place because it's one of the few... Which is kind of crazy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Your government can tell you can't go somewhere like five, two... Yes, and some of it's so close to you as well.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
You hit the gas on the highway and you see black smoke.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, you certainly will. I mean, there's a reason why people are escaping there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
They're trapped. They're trapped in a communist dictatorship.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's also a communist dictatorship that's in a very unusual predicament because they're not allowed to trade, right? So China's a communist dictatorship, but we buy everything from China. They're arguably worse than Cuba, but we're not allowed to trade with Cuba because some shit that happened in the 60s.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But not America. I think you can get them now in limited quantities, but it used to be if you got a hold of Cuban cigars, I would get them. I'm going to tell you a thing I did that was illegal. I used to get them from England, and I used to get Cuban cigars. I had a friend who lived in England, and he would send me Cuban cigars, and then later he would send me the labels.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Exactly. And even the scientists are all bought and paid for. That's part of the problem too. Scientists aren't just scientists. They're scientists that are influenced by the university. They're influenced by whatever research group they're a part of. There's a lot of shenanigans going on.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So he would send me the cigars with no labels, like in a Ziploc bag, send me a few cigars, and then he would send me the labels in an envelope a couple days later.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, there's a place, was it in Indiana, where there's three coal-fired power plants? And if you go outside, you can run your finger over someone's windshield and you have black coal dust on your finger. And all these people in that area have all sorts of weird fucking diseases because they're just breathing in particulates every day.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Oh, it's gotta be horrible. Every time they launch, I mean, how many cars does that account for? You think about the amount of pollution that's put out, the amount of carbon that's put out by the burning rockets?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, how about leaded gasoline? Leaded gasoline, there's been studies that show that in the places with higher amounts of leaded gasoline, you can see the lower IQ in the kids. And they think that it has dropped people's IQ by a measurable amount. Like people that grew up around leaded gasoline, which is me, during that time, we are dumber because of leaded gasoline.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
The pipes in our homes 150 years ago were made of... Lead. Lead pipes. Well, my friend Shane Gillis has a hilarious bit about George Washington. And George Washington had lead dentures. So he had this lead thing where these fake teeth were... So he had like lead in his mouth. So he's getting lead poisoning all day long.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
But I think they'd be like, you're not using gravity? Why don't you guys just go use gravity? Manipulate gravity. This is so stupid. I have a Tesla. I have a Model S Plaid, and it's fantastic. It is so fast. It's like a time machine.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Which can help with coughs. I've never heard of that. By reducing airway pain and irritation, menthol can reduce the pain and irritation caused by cigarette smoke. Decreasing the cough reflex, menthol triggers cold, sensitive nerves in the skin, which can decrease the cough reflex. Soothing a dry throat. Menthol can soothe the dry throat feeling.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
That's funny that AI is willing to say something that's very un-PC.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Because I've never heard that. Well, it's probably true. It's terrible for you.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yes. I don't like that. I don't like the yoke. I ordered a new one. I get it in October. No yoke. Regular wheel. Wheel's better. I like a wheel better. But I get it. There's some benefits to the yoke. It's like you get a clearer view of the dash. You basically put your hands on there. And he's moving towards completely automated. You can press, doot, doot. You press a button.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It just means it's safe and healthy. It's simple, real food from people who care about what goes into your dog's body. The Farmer's Dog makes it easy to help your dog live a long, healthy life by sending you fresh food that's pre-portioned just for your dog's needs. Because every dog is different. And I'm not just talking about breeds.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, some guy invented a water-powered car a long time ago and he was murdered. Do you know that story? It's one of the great conspiracy theories that he yelled. He met with some people, you know, that wanted to talk to him about this design. And then he yelled, they poisoned me. And he ran outside and died. Yeah. And then nobody ever heard about the water powered car ever again after that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So what is all that? I don't know. What the fuck is all that shit? So the mysterious death of Stanley Meyer and his water-powered car. It's a wonderful conspiracy theory. I haven't looked into it enough to know how much of it is true.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Look at it. It looks like the wild one. So this guy had developed this water-powered car that had incredible mileage.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah. Jesus Christ, a lady? Oh, Jesus Christ is Lord. Oh, okay. Cursive. Did Stanley Meyer die because he knew how to turn water into fuel? This is a British newspaper. Is it? The Express.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I'm sure there's other articles about that. The car that ran on water.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Oh, okay. So his bizarre death at age 57 ended work that, if proved valid, scroll up, could have ended reliance on fossil fuels. People who knew him said his work drew worldwide attention, mysterious visitors from overseas, government spying, and lucrative buyout offers. I know that. He was offered money to sell. I think the Y Files did an episode on this.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
The Myers death was laced with all sorts of story and conspiracy, cloak and dagger stories. Grove City Police Lieutenant Steve Robinette said, lead detective on the case i told them the stand had died and they never said a word he recalled absolutely nothing no condolences no questions how did it but how did it run on water i don't know Stephen Myers featured in numerous internet sites.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Significant portion of the 1995 documentary, it runs on water, narrated by science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke, aired on BBC, focused on his water fuel cell invention. It's a fuel cell, okay. Who was ignored, called a fraud, and died without his hometown even remembering him with so much as a plaque.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, right, especially over exhaust, right? It says, and hydrogen bubbles. A match is lighted. The volatile gases explode and prove that water is separated into its components. Meyer said his invention did so by using much less electricity than physicists say is possible. Video show his contraption turning water into a frothy mix within seconds.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Takes so much energy to separate H2 from the O, said Ohio State University Professor Emeritus Neville Rieh. a physicist for more than 41 years, that energy has pretty much not changed with time. It's a fixed amount and nothing changes that. Meyer's work defies the laws of conservation of energy, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I don't trust it. No, nor do I. I mean, it just doesn't feel right.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Basically, it says you cannot get something for nothing. He may have had a nice way to store hydrogen and use it to make a very effective motor, but there is no way to do something fancy and separate hydrogen with less energy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
So who knows? But when he said, the Lord sent me. Okay, now it gets odd. His first few words were, the Lord sent me here to this home. I'd like to use your home as an experiment. Okay, hold on. Meyer's creativity seemed to peak when he met Charles and Valerie Hughes, truck drivers who lived in the Jackson Township.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Julia Hughes, the youngest of the seven children, was five years old when Meyer rang the doorbell of her home on Marlane Drive. His first few words were, the Lord sent me here to this home. I'd like to use your home as an experiment, she said. Maybe it was just a two-story garage shop or the privacy of towering oak and sycamore trees.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Julia isn't sure what Meyer saw there, but she knew her parents didn't have room for a struggling inventor. Yet after visiting with the family for several hours, Meyer stayed the night and then the next few years in the late 1970s. In return, Meyer built the family a solar silo designed to both heat and cool the home.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
The structure required thousands of clear resin light guides, a crude form of fiber optics which Meyer baked and molded in the family kitchen. Jesus. Julia Hughes recalled the chemical stench the system was supposed to channel the sun's rays into the tower base to heat water and generate electricity for an air conditioner.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Despite extensive efforts that included re-plumbing the house, the invention never worked. Oh, so he might have been a kook. Hard to tell.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
It's the exact same feeling that I got when Joe Biden was the president. Like, is this okay?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yeah, the Arabs wanted to offer me $250 million to stop today. You and this lovely family can live in peace and prosperity the rest of your days. Meyer told them this. The army officials, meanwhile, had questioned Meyer about what foreigners wanted, thinking that a deal might have been struck. Charlie recalled Meyer telling the family, Meyer discussed the offer in the Clark documentary.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Many times over the last decade have been offered enormous amounts of money. Hmm.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Yes, they're driverless. I don't know what they're called. Wayvo? Waymo?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Conspiracy theories are fascinating because some of them are bullshit and some of them are real and it's hard to figure out what's what. Yeah. There's some crazy ones like the earth is flat and then there's some ones like the CIA might have killed JFK. Yeah. And you're like, ooh, they might have. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And how many of them did they get away with? Yeah. For everyone that gets caught, it's not like they catch every conspiracy. There's no way.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
No, some of them sneak through and manage to be effective. Do you know the latest one about this gentleman who was a billionaire who had apparently overvalued his company and went to court for it and the possibility of him – winning this court battle was something like one half of 1%. This is Mike Lynch, is it? Yeah, the guy who just died on the boat.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And then right after he gets out, the guy who he's with, the co-defendant, gets hit by a car, and then he gets hit by a freak water spout and sinks his yacht.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Did the person that hit the cyclist have any connection to anybody?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Billionaire Autonomy co-founder Mike Lynch and Stephen Chamberlain's careers were intertwined for years in a fraud trial. Then they died on the same day miles apart.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Well, there was a bunch of them. They got into a sort of a situation where they created a traffic jam because they all came into an intersection together and no one wanted to move. And there was a bunch of them because there's quite a few of them in the city. I've seen several today. Yes, they caused a traffic jam. Yeah, I don't.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
Because I got to think that there's people in this world that have the ability to do certain things to certain people that fuck them over. I think you're right. Yeah. And that seems like that would qualify. We're talking about they got ripped off by billions of dollars and then somehow or another this guy gets off and then dies right away. And dies in the weirdest of ways, a freak water spout?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
How many people die every year in freak water spouts on 300-foot yachts?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And they've always rigged sports. I mean, people have been rigging sports since the beginning of sports betting. But the sport that you're involved with, can you rig that? Oh, yes. People have rigged it. People have gotten in trouble for rigging it. Certain fighters might have an injury
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
There's a controversy about a certain trainer that was involved in betting in an online Discord server, and they would talk about bets, and he'd make a lot of bets, and he was making more money betting than other things.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And there was a fighter that he was taking care of, and that fighter apparently had a knee injury and went into the fight, and then all this money got bet on this guy losing in the first round. And so he throws a kick in the first round, falls down, gets beat up, loses by TKO in the first round, blows his knee out. His knee had apparently already been fucked.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
And so this guy, who is the trainer, he's being investigated by the feds. He gets kicked out of the sport. No one from his gym is allowed to compete in the UFC anymore. And he's under investigation. And if it turns out that what they're saying about him is true, he's really rightly fucked.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2199 - Chris Harris
I mean, probably one day it's going to be the way to do it, the way to get around. But I think you can't deny people the joy of driving just like you can't deny people their ability to ride horses. If someone wants to ride a horse, they should be able to ride a horse. People have a long history of enjoying horse riding. Okay? Let them ride horses. And I have a 1990, I guess it's a 93 RS America.
